  1. EBITDA calculation considers earnings before income tax, social contribution, financial result and amortization expenses. The calculation of Adjusted EBITDA represents the EBITDA result and disregards only the non-recurring events related to "AFRMM". It is worth pointing out that - as a market practice - adjusted EBITDA is not audited by independent auditors, since it is a non-GAAP metric and every company can calculate this indicator according to their own criteria.
  1. Adjusted EBITDA in 4Q23 is composed of EBITDA plus cut-off in the amount of -R$14.8 million, of which -R$10.2 million in Coastal Shipping and -R$4.6 million in Road Cargo Transportation. According to CPC 47, the cut-off is an accounting adjustment due to the accounting of only the portion of the service rendered, cancelling the effect of the portion of the service not yet concluded in the period, and which, in turn, had its transport document recorded by the total amount at the beginning of service provision. The adjustments for non-recurring effects amounted to -R$3.9 million in Road Cargo Transportation due to the write off of the Oliva Pinto Group's balance sheet.

Net Operating Revenue

Consolidated Net Operating Revenue

(NOR) (R$ MM)

4Q23 x 4Q22

10% NOR growth explained by the following factors:

  • Highest consolidated NOR for a fourth quarter, R$ 601.5 million, benefiting from results generated in all business lines, as described below;
  • Coastal Shipping total NOR was positively impacted by:
  1. Growth in Cabotage revenue (+14% vs. 4Q22) due to a better mix of cargo handled and pricing strategy. From a volume perspective, the business was affected by the Drought in the Amazon river basin in the North region and the flooding of Itajaí Açú River in the South region, which led to lower volumes handled in Manaus and missed calls at Navegantes Port. With regard to the Northern region, Log-In reacted quickly, pioneering an alternative solution by providing services using barges, thus mitigating losses for clients and

generating revenue for the Company. In addition, due to the situation presented, the Company charged a drought surcharge on a one-off basis;

  1. Record Feeder revenues, R$81.1 million, benefiting above all from the record volume (+36% vs. 4Q22) due to the handling of cargo from international shipowners due to the adverse weather in the South region, which created the need for contingency shipments;
    1. Mercosur revenues were negatively impacted by the crisis in Argentina. Despite the adverse scenario, the Company is maintaining its share in this trade, despite the drop in volume.
  • All-timehigh TVV NOR, R$93.8 million, in line with the record volume of containers handled, contract readjustments made in the period and better cargo mix (full vs. empty);
  • Road Cargo Transportation NOR was positively impacted by the start of new contracts, the container transportation operation in the Santos project and the better mix of cargo and clients, despite the impact of the Drought in the Amazon river basin throughout 4Q23. In addition, Oliva
    Pinto was only included in the Company's results from 1Q23 onwards. Therefore, there is no comparison with 4Q22.

2023 x 2022

13% Growth in the period, explained by the following factors:

  • Road Cargo Transportation (Tecmar and Oliva Pinto) adding R$553.4 million in 2023, compared to R$407.3 million added to revenues in 2022. Oliva Pinto was only included in the Company's

results from 1Q23 onwards and, in addition, in the year of 2022 - the comparative period - the information started to be published as of the date of the acquisition of Tecmar (March of 2022);

  • All-timehigh Coastal Shipping NOR, R$1,375.2 million, with an emphasis on the record revenues from Cabotage and Feeder trades, with respective growths of 31% and 10%, compared to 2022;
  • All-timehigh TVV NOR, R$350.7 million, benefiting from record revenues from container handling and the provision of ancillary services.

Cost of Services Provided (CSP)

4Q23 x 4Q22

Higher CSP due to the following factors:

  • In terms of variable costs, Coastal Shipping saw an increase in container handling expenses due to the drought in the North region and the inclement weather in the South region of Brazil. A significant part of these costs is related to operational contingencies to maintain customer service, such as unforeseen costs for transshipment, storage, additional calls, among others, at ports with higher port duties;
  • In addition, there were insurance deductible costs due to damage to cargo stored for a longer period of time than estimated due to the weather conditions mentioned above;
  • Another factor explaining the increase in costs is related to the purchase of space on river barges to supply the market to and from Manaus during the dry season;
  • Coastal Shipping fixed costs, in turn, were mainly impacted by the start of operation of 2 vessels (Log-In Discovery and MSC Belmonte) in 2023, in addition to the difficulties faced by inclement weather throughout the quarter. Also, in the Running Costs line, there was an increase in the cost of maritime crews due to the start of operation, in 2Q23, of the new Amazonas Express Service (SEA), with no comparison to 4Q22 available;
  • Higher costs of services provided at TVV linked to the increase in container handling volumes.

2023 x 2022

Higher CSP due to the following factors:

  • Impact of Road Cargo Transportation (Tecmar and Oliva Pinto) of R$441.6 million on total costs in 2023, compared to R$326.6 million in 2022, due to expansion of services with the inclusion of Oliva Pinto in the results as of 1Q23. Furthermore, Oliva Pinto was only included

Release 4Q23

in the result from 1Q23 onwards and, in 2022, the comparative period, information started to be consolidated after the acquisition of Tecmar (March/2022);

  • The variation in Coastal Shipping CSP was partially offset by the reduction in fixed costs for vehicle chartering (Ro-Ro), due to the discontinuation of services in July 2022.

Operating Expenses

4Q23 x 4Q22 and 2023 x 2022

Operating Expenses increased by R$32 million in the quarter and R$52 million in the full year due to:

  • 4Q22 had an impact resulting from the reversal of Tecmar's operating contingencies in the amount of R$25.8 million, positively impacting the result and explaining the variation;
  • In addition to the impact described above, in 2022, there was a statute of limitations of the non-materialized contingencies relating to the negative goodwill on the acquisition of Tecmar Transportes, in the amount of R$19.6 million, positively impacting the result and explaining the annual variation.

EBITDA (2) (R$ MM)

EBITDA Margin (%)

(2) Values referring to Adjusted EBITDA

4Q23 x 4Q22

Adjusted EBITDA of R$101.0 million, down 39% over the comparative period by virtue of the following factors:

  • Adjusted EBITDA of Coastal Shipping fell by 47.3% compared to 4Q22. The business was directly affected during this period by the drought in the North region and the cyclones in the South region, culminating in the interruption of ship traffic on the Amazonas River and cancellations of port calls in the South. In addition, Mercosur revenues were negatively impacted by the crisis in Argentina;
  • EBITDA margin fell by 13.3 p.p. due to the increased cost structure in the Costal Shipping business as a result of the start of operations of 2 new vessels (Log-In Discovery and MSC Belmonte) in 2023, in addition to the difficulties faced by inclement weather throughout the quarter;
  • Adjusted EBITDA for Road Cargo Transportation fell by R$2.5 million (-20% compared to 4Q22) due to adverse weather conditions in different Brazilian states - drought in the North and rain in the South - throughout 4Q23. In addition, there was an increase in the costs line item given the pressure on costs arising from the increase in freight provided by third parties due to the aforementioned climate issues.

2023 x 2022

Adjusted EBITDA of R$583.9 million, down 2.2% in relation to the comparative period due to the following factors:

  • Coastal Shipping Adjusted EBITDA grew in the first three quarters of the year due to the pricing strategy adopted in the period and the start of operations of the new Amazonas Express Service (SEA) in 2Q23. However, in 4Q23, adjusted EBITDA was negatively impacted by the weather conditions mentioned above. Despite this situation, the Company remained resilient in terms of EBITDA and volumes, given that the sector as a whole had a reduction in handling activities, according to information from the Brazilian Association of Cabotage Shipowners (ABAC);
  • On the other hand, adjusted EBITDA from Road Cargo Transportation (Tecmar and Oliva Pinto) was included in 2023 at R$49.5 million, compared to R$28.1 million in 2022. Furthermore, Oliva Pinto was only included in the result from 1Q23 onwards and, in 2022, the comparative period, information started to be consolidated after the acquisition of Tecmar (March/2022);

Revenue and Costs Pegged to the Dollar

Log-In has revenues pegged to the US dollar in the Mercosur and Feeder trades of its Coastal Shipping business. From the standpoint of costs, the main items are bunker fuel, container leasing and Mercosur port duties. According to the table below, the Company has a positive operating balance in dollars, which is able to protect the service of the dollar debt with BNDES.

Financial Result

To evaluate the Financial Result, we present below a chart breaking down the effects of foreign exchange variation, revenues and expenses of the financial result:

4Q23 x 4Q22

The Financial Result for 4Q23 varied negatively by R$13.1 million in the year-on-year comparison. Financial revenues and expenses offset each other in the period. On the one hand, financial revenues were down by around R$7.0 million. On the other hand, financial expenses fell by roughly the same amount, in both cases due to the reduction in indexation. The main impact in this period was the negative exchange rate variation of R$13.2 million, stemming from the exchange rate devaluation in Argentina, partially offset by a reduction in the balance of the long-term debt with BNDES due to the appreciation of the Brazilian BRL against the Dollar.

2023 x 2022

The Financial Result for 2023 varied negatively by R$44.8 million when compared to 2022. Financial expenses increased by R$13.2 million, mainly impacted by the monetary restatement of the installment payable for the Tecmar and Oliva Pinto acquisitions. Financial revenues remained relatively stable, increasing by R$1.2 million, mainly due to the Company's financial investments income, partially offsetting the increase in financial expenses. Foreign exchange fluctuated negatively by R$32.8 million, mainly due to the currency depreciation in Argentina in 4Q23. The results of the Argentine presidential elections had a major impact on the Argentine financial market, including a 50% devaluation of the Argentine peso against the US dollar (Aug 13, 2023: ARS 366.450 x Dec 31, 2023: ARS 808.45).

As regards the composition of exchange variation, most of it derives from the portion of the BNDES loan in US dollars and this is only an accounting effect, with no relevant impact on the Company's short-term cash. This accounting effect stems from the variation of the outstanding balance of the future flow of long-term dollarized debts, with monthly maturities until 2034. On March 1, 2021, a Hedge Accounting strategy was adopted aiming to protect the Company's result from exposure to cash flow variability resulting from foreign exchange effects in the next 5 years, through non-derivative hedging instruments. The hedge effect has offset a significant portion of exchange variation starting in the 2nd quarter of 2021, demonstrating the effectiveness of this strategy in a volatile foreign exchange scenario.
