6 4 INVEPAR GROUP Letter from the President In 2011, Invepar readied itself for expansion Planning, training and entrepreneurship. The year 2011 was marked by our ability to develop well-structured projects. The growth trajectory of the Group that began in 2009 was further consolidated during Invepar was founded in the year 2000, and during the first eight years of its existence it had only two subsidiaries: LAMSA (Linhas Amarelas) and CLN (Concessionária Litoral Norte). Over the three-year period from 2009 to 2011 we added an additional five companies to our Group: CART (Concessionária Auto Raposo Tavares), MetrôRio, Bahia Norte, CRT (Concessionária Rio-Teresópolis) and CRA (Concessionária Rota do Atlântico). CRA was created in June 2011 to manage almost 45 km of the Suape/Expressway Highway and Logistics Complex in the state of Pernambuco. The success in the bid to operate CRA showed the Group s entrepreneurial capabilities and exemplifies the proactive and leading player role that we are seeking to play in the transport infrastructure industry in Latin America. We were involved in the preliminary technical studies for the project, so as to verify its feasibility prior to the commencement of the bidding process through a PMI, local acronym for Manifest Interest Procedure. A PMI is a legal instrument that allows the government and the private sector to work together to model and prepare projects of public interest. Another important fact that took place in 2011 was the start of operations of Concessionária Bahia Norte, which operates the highways of the BA-093 System connecting several municipalities in the metropolitan region of Salvador, in addition to being one of the major corridors in which products and services circulate and are distributed in the region. We were only able to grow due to the implementation of a structured planning model and our management development plan.

7 Annual Report The successful consolidation of several companies and the development of new opportunities can be attributed to the participation, commitment and support of our employees and shareholders. During 2011, we experienced an extensive internal restructuring, aligning and standardizing our procedures, integrating teams, recruiting talent and encouraging entrepreneurship. The work undertaken since 2009, cleared the way for our important achievements in early 2012, when we overcame three immense challenges: internationalization, participation and success in the first public tender of airport concessions, as well as our successful bid for the Transolímpico Express Corridor. Winning the bid for Guarulhos International Airport in February 2012, was the result of a prior in-depth study that began almost two years ago, involving over one hundred internal and external employees, specialists in Brazil and from other countries. Planning went into every step and our bid strategy was successful. In addition to being the largest airport in Latin America, Guarulhos Airport is a consolidated project with strong, stable cash flow. In addition, it opens the door to exploring countless growth possibilities in the years ahead. Our alliance with ACSA (Airports Company South Africa) was the result of extensive negotiations that began in We listened to several potential partners and opted for an operating group in tune with the long-term objectives of our shareholders. ACSA is a globally recognized operator that brings management excellence to nine airports in South Africa, and is a member of the consortium responsible for operating Mumbai Airport in India. In March 2012, Invepar took over Concessionária V.P.R. Brasil Participações S.A., which holds 100% of the equity of Lamsac (Linea Amarilla S.A.C.). The company was created to build, maintain and operate Via Parque Rímac, located in the metropolitan region of Lima, and considered Peru s most important urban infrastructure project. As a further example of the importance of the implementation of our structured planning model between 2009 and 2011 occured in April 2012, when we were successful in the bid to implement and operate the Transolímpico Express Corridor, through our participation in the Rio Olímpico Consortium. The Consortium led by Invepar also comprises of CCR and Odebrecht Transport participation. We started preparing for this bid in 2009, through studies drawn up within the PMI. The Transolímpico Express Corridor will directly connect the Olympic Centers of Barra da Tijuca and Deodoro, linking Rio de Janeiro s west and north sides. Lastly, we cannot forget the importance of our commitment to society. We are signatories to the UN Global Compact and are heavily involved in the socioenvironmental initiatives developed and supported through Invepar s Institute. In 2011, we began to reposition the Institute, with the strategic aim of increasingly integrating sustainability into our daily activities. Our 2011 Annual Report includes information about this period of growth, reflected in the 22.2% increase in the Group s operating revenues in comparison with 2010 s fiscal year. Enjoy your reading. Gustavo Rocha, Chief Executive Officer Although our primary focus is the Brazilian market, our strategic planning has defined the search for investment opportunities in the countries of Latin America that enjoy macroeconomic and regulatory stability. The opportunity arose in Peru, and that was how we took our first steps towards internationalization.

8 6 INVEPAR GROUP Profile Overview of the Group s businesses

9 Annual Report Highway BA-099, managed by CLN, connects the town of Lauro de Freitas to the border between the states of Bahia and Sergipe. Invepar (Investimentos e Participações em Infraestrutura S.A.) is a transport infrastructure group created in Its operations are focused on four sectors: highways, urban mobility, airports and ports. It commenced its activities in 2000, with two concessions, reaching seven by the end of 2011, five of these in the last three years. In the first quarter of 2012, three new businesses were incorporated, for a total of ten companies. Eight of these involve highway concessions; one, a subway system; and the last, an airport.

10 8 INVEPAR GROUP Profile Throughout its 12-year existence, and more importantly, in the last three years a period notable for acquisitions, mergers and victorious bids Invepar became a benchmark in the sector, transforming into one of the largest private transport infrastructure operators in Brazil. Its the market leader in the number of passengers transported on subway concessions in Brazil, and its the fifth largest in the number of kilometers of highway concessions, with a 6.5% share of the Brazilian market. MetrôRio also reported higher demand for its services, transporting 180 million passengers during the year, setting a record since operations began at the end of the 1970s. The daily average also rose, with 639,620 passengers using this system of transportation. The business expansion experienced in Brazil is likely to continue over the years ahead, in line with the positive domestic economic scenario. All the highways under Invepar s management carried a total of 130 million paying vehicles in 2011, 38 million more than the previous year.

12 10 INVEPAR GROUP Profile Invepar and the Brazilian context In 2011, the Group s performance achieved a level that exceeded expectations. This is due primarily to the fact that Invepar is working to anticipate and meet demand, as well as making the most of the opportunities in the Brazilian market. Brazil s growth necessarily depends on investments in better transportation infrastructure conditions (check out the principal results of this expansion process in the table on pages 12 and 13). Invepar s solid expansion is proof that the Group is in a position to capitalize on this favorable moment in which the Brazilian economy finds itself. Besides higher production and consumption, the promising prospects for the future also include higher foreign currency earnings arising from the large-scale domestic and international events to take place in Brazil over the next few years. These include the FIFA World Cup Finals in 2014 and the Olympic Games in In the past, Brazil experienced a reduction in infrastructure investment, as a result of the contraction in government expenditures in this sector, coupled with economic instability. This scenario is now behind us, and heavy investment in infrastructure is now high on Brazil s development agenda. According to the Brazilian Economics Institute of the Getulio Vargas Foundation (Ibre/FGV), for almost three decades infrastructure spending has been a paltry 2% of GDP, a tiny fraction when compared to the figures for China and India, for example, which spend 6% and 7% of their respective GDPs. One of Brazil s major challenges in this decade is to reduce the infrastructure bottlenecks it is experiencing. Brazilian highways currently account for 60% of total freight transported around the country and play a fundamental role in domestic logistics. Corporate Structure Previ Banco do Brasil Employees Pension Fund, Latin America s largest pension fund. Shareholders OAS One of the five largest heavy construction groups in Brazil, with a presence in 18 countries spanning the Americas, the Caribbean and Africa. Funcef Federal Savings Bank Employees Foundation, the thirdlargest pension fund in Brazil and one of the largest in Latin America. Petros Petrobras Social Insurance Foundation, the second-largest pension fund in Brazil and pioneer in the local supplementary pension market.

13 Annual Report The industry segment in which the Group operates shows tremendous growth potential. At the beginning of 2012, the Brazilian government revealed its interest in implementing plans for a feasibility study for transferring to the private sector the management of a further 9,000 km of federal highways. According to information from the ABCR (The Brazilian Association of Highway Concessionaires), 15,381 km of highways in nine states are already under private sector management representing 7% of Brazil s paved highway network 214,249 km in extent. Private sector-managed highways have produced good results in studies carried out by entities within the sector. In a survey held in 2011 by the National Transport Confederation (CNT), 89.6% of the highway network in the hands of the private sector was considered excellent or good, while 33.8% of the highways under federal and state public management had the same classification. The study covered 92,747 km of highways. The creation of committees to advise the board of directors is in tune with the best practices in corporate governance Linha Amarela S.A.

14 12 INVEPAR GROUP Profile According to the study Sustainable Brazil Socioeconomic Impacts of the 2014 FIFA World Cup Finals compiled by the consultancy firm Ernst & Young, in partnership with the FGV (Fundação Getulio Vargas), direct investments in Brazil needs to rise fivefold, if the event is to be a success, injecting a total of R$ billion into the Brazilian economy. The study also predicts the creation of 3.6 million jobs a year and R$ 63.5 billion in income for the population, which will inevitably impact the domestic consumer market. However, the same study says that if Brazil is to take advantage of this opportunity, heavy investment is required in infrastructure, by both the government and the private sector. KEY FIGURES... The expansion process of Invepar was also reflected in the organization s performance. The highlighted figures refer to fiscal year R$905 mi * was the net revenue of Invepar in 2011, 22% higher than in the previous year.

In the case of Ebitda, the amount of R$ 6.5 million is included as provisions for maintenance.

16 14 INVEPAR GROUP Profile New home In order to facilitate the internal restructuring and strengthen the sense of unity among the different companies, Invepar moved its head offices to a new address in This enabled it to bring all corporate office employees under one roof and to work in the constant search for greater integration and synergy among the staff and to standardize procedures among the companies. The new administrative headquarters are located in downtown Rio de Janeiro. The company s core business is to manage and operate transport infrastructure concessions. The expansion of the business is supported by pillars such as best corporate governance practices, with the hallmark of respect for the Group s values: people and teamwork; honesty; socioenvironmental responsibility; entrepreneurship; commitment; respect and innovation. The Group and its subsidiary companies, except for CRT and CBN, are signatories to the principles of the Global Compact, an initiative sponsored by the United Nations Organization for the purpose of mobilizing companies worldwide to adopt sound practices in the fields of human rights, labor law, the environment and anti-corruption reporting. Under the CLN concession, the BA-099 highway is a symbol of high standards of quality, comfort and safety.

Infraero holds 49% of the SPE. Another achievement involved the first step towards internationalization, with the takeover of the concessionaire that will operate Via Parque Rímac, in Lima, Peru.
