Production In 2Q15, Guararapes produced 10.7 million pieces versus 8.7 million pieces in 2Q14. In the first half of the year, production totaled 20.8 million pieces, 12.8% up on the same period last year. In order to express the value generated by the plants, Guararapes billed R$649.8 million between January and June 2015, 12.9% more than in the same period last year. Riachuelo Stores The 2015 Mother’s Day campaign starred Grazi Massafera. Thinking of the urban woman, the looks were perfect for both day and night, with exceptionally charming botanical and geometrical prints. For Valentine’s Day, the collection was inspired by several types of couples in love– from modern to classic, including the fun and the trendy. The highlights were cropped tops and kimonos in shades of white, black, off-white, pink and orange. Net revenue from products totaled R$974.1 million in 2Q15, 9.8% higher than the R$887.0 million recorded in the same period in 2014. In same-store terms, growth came to 0.2%. In 1H15, net revenue from products totaled R$1,762.9 million, 12.9% up on the same period last year. In same-store terms, growth came to 2.6%. Consolidated gross product margin came to 52.3% in 2Q15, dropping by 3.1 p.p. compared to 2Q14. In the first half of 2015, it fell by 2.2 p.p., to 53.4%. The high inventory levels and the failure to meet sales expectations encouraged the Company to intensify the markdown process in the quarter. The decline in the macroeconomic scenario and the sector’s poor performance further intensified the competitors’ price reduction movement, making the sales reaction more difficult in the period and contributing to maintaining inventory levels at higher-than-ideal levels.

In this scenario, Riachuelo inaugurated its first pop-up store, with 300 sq.m. of sales area and a special decoration that evokes a cabin in the mountains, including a false fireplace. The temporary store was installed at Shopping Market Plaza. The expansion process reflects Riachuelo’s goal of capturing new markets and consolidating its position in the regions by opening new stores and remodeling existing ones. It is worth remembering that the maturation period of a new store is approximately five years, which makes these areas an important factor in defining the growth pace of the Company’s sales. At the close of 2Q15, 42% of Riachuelo’s sales area was between one and five years old. 2Q15 Results 3 of 17 Sales Area Period - 2Q15 Number of Stores 257 270 12% 13% 212 86 2006 93 2007 102 2008 107 2009 123 2010 145 Under 1 year From 1 to 2 years 169 29% From 2 to 5 years 16% 2011 2012 2013 2014 From 6 to 10 years Over 10 years 30% 2Q15 Midway Financeira Midway Financeira S.A. was incorporated in January 2008 and began operations in July of the same year.

In the first half of 2015, revenue from financial operations came to R$670.7 million, 47.6% up on the R$454.5 million recorded in the same period last year.

To better illustrate the process of constituting the provision for doubtful accounts, the table below gives a breakdown of the portfolio by overdue period and the respective amounts provisioned, as well as a comparison of the PDA/portfolio volume ratio with the minimum levels required by Central Bank Resolution 2682.

As a result, the Company closed the period with a PDA balance 7.8% above the Central Bank minimum, with total provisions sufficient to cover 88.1% of credits overdue by more than 90 days. The provision ended the period at 7.7% of the portfolio overdue by up to 180 days. The Basel Index ended the second quarter of 2015 at 34.0%. This index is an international indicator created by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, which recommends a minimum total capital/risk-weighted asset ratio of 8%. In Brazil, the minimum required ratio is 11%, in accordance with the prevailing legislation (CMN Resolution 4,193/13 and Central Bank Circular Letters 3,644/13 and 3,477/09).

The share of interest-bearing installments sales in total sales stood at 8.1% in 2Q15 and 1H15 versus 8.8% in 2Q14 and 8.7% in 1H14. The improved share of private label in 2Q15 reflected the results of the restructuring of the Riachuelo Card and the new sales initiative that have been adopted since the beginning of 2014.

Midway Mail and Own Stores The Midway Mall is located at the most important junction in Natal (Rio Grande do Norte), formed by Avenida Senador Salgado Filho and Avenida Bernardo Vieira, two of the city’s main thoroughfares. It is also highly accessible, located only 15 minutes from the city’s main districts, ensuring that the entire city perimeter is within its catchment area. Inaugurated on April 27, 2005, and currently with nearly all of its gross area leased, the mall comprises 231,000 sq.m. spread over three floors, with 13 anchor stores, satellite stores, a food court and several service outlets. The third floor, expanded in 2010, includes a seven-screen movie theater (Cinemark), five new anchor stores, various satellite stores and a complete gourmet area with renowned city restaurants. Also on the third floor, the Midway Mall houses the Teatro Riachuelo, the most modern and comprehensive performing arts venue in Brazil’s Northeast. Inaugurated in December 2010, it can hold up to 3,500 spectators, depending on its configuration. The project exemplifies the mall’s consolidation of leisure, entertainment and the arts, providing the public with a wide range of shows and performances, through a specialized management team in partnership with highly experienced segment operators.

Also, in accordance with paragraph 4 of the same Instruction, we opted to use ADJUSTED EBITDA because we understand that the adjustment related to « income tax benefits » contributes to the Company’s gross cash generation, since it does not represent any cash outflow. 2Q15 Results 11 of 17 In 2Q15, adjusted EBITDA came to R$177.9 million, 22.4% down on the R$229.3 million recorded in 2Q14. The adjusted EBITDA margin on net product revenue was 18.3% in 2Q15 (13.4%, if calculated over the Company’s consolidated net revenue). In 1H15, adjusted EBITDA came to R$353.4 million, 7.6% down on the same period last year. The adjusted EBITDA margin on net product revenue was 20.0% in 1H15, (14.6%, if calculated over the Company’s consolidated net revenue). This performance was influenced by low same-store sales growth and the performance of gross product margin; the strict control over operating expenses in recent years, which partially offset the impact of additional expenses with new stores; and the performance of the financial operation in the quarter. Net Income Consolidated net income totaled R$74.6 million in 2Q15, 40.1% down on the R$124.5 million reported in 1Q15. In 1H15, consolidated net income totaled R$159.6 million, 18.6% down on the R$196.0 million reported in 1H14. The net margin on net product revenue was 7.7% in 2Q15 (5.6% if calculated over the Company’s total net revenue), versus 14.0% in 2Q14 (11.1% if calculated over the Company’s total net revenue). In 1H15, the net margin on net product revenue was 9.1% (6.6% if calculated over the Company’s total net revenue), versus 12.5% in 1H14 (9.7% if calculated over the Company’s total net revenue).

In developed countries, large companies account for 30% to 40% of the retail textile market, whereas in Brazil the sum of the biggest firms accounts for less than 10%. The main competitive advantage of small companies is the informality of their operations. However, the market of big chains has expanded due to scale gains, investments in product quality, fast inventory turnover and their position as sellers of fashion, allowing them to adapt rapidly to the season’s trends. 272 stores: 26 estates and Federal District NE: 59 STORES AL: 5 Stores BA: 12 Stores CE: 11 Stores MA: 6 Stores PB: 4 Stores PE: 11 Stores PI: 3 Stores RN: 4 Stores SE: 3 Stores N: 21 STORES AM: 7 Stores PA: 7 Stores TO: 1 Store AC: 1 Store AP: 2 Stores RO: 1 Store RR: 2 Stores MW: 26 STORES SE: 132 STORES DF: 8 Stores GO: 10 Stores MS: 5 Stores MT: 3 Stores ES: 8 Stores MG: 17 Stores RJ: 25 Stores SP: 82 Stores S: 34 STORES In recent years, Guararapes has invested PR: 15 Stores heavily in its support operations by RS: 8 Stores modernizing its facilities, opening SC: 11 Stores distribution centers in Natal and Sao Paulo and implementing IT in the financial and operational management of its operations. One of the Company’s most important advantages is this integration between its retail and manufacturing operations, a model that has proved highly successful since it permits a rapid response to changes in the market. Riachuelo’s private label card base is another major asset that establishes long-term relationships with a growing customer base, currently over 25.9 million, of which 4.3 million are branded cards (June 2015). Another of the Company’s main operations is financial services, which offer customers interest-bearing installment sales, personal loans and insurance and other financial products.
