Quarterly Financial Letter
 
3rd Quarter of Fiscal Year 2009 – November, December and January
 
 
 
 Endorsing the tendency begun last quarter, Cosan Limited posts record EBITDA
     
 
This section provides a summary of the quarterly performance of Cosan Ltd. (NYSE: CZZ), the parent company of the Cosan Group. The financial information in this section is therefore expressed in U.S. dollars and in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
     
The operations of Esso, now renamed Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes (CCL) were consolidated in the 3Q09. For comparative purposes, Cosan’s operations until the date of the Esso acquisition, which comprise the production and sale of sugar, ethanol and electric power, are grouped under Cosan Sugar e Álcool (CAA).
   
Thanks to two months of CCL’s results and the impact of the devaluation of the Real on exports, Cosan closed the 3Q’09 with a significant inmprovement in its operating results: (i) net operating revenue moved up 2.9 times to US$1,103.4 million; (ii) gross profit increased 4.6 times and the gross margin widened from 8.8% to 13.9%; (iii) the 3Q’08 operating loss was turned into operating income of US$43.2 million, with a margin of 3.9%; and (iv) EBITDA totaled US$92.2 million 7.8 times higher than the 3Q’08, equivalent to 97.8% of FY’08 EBITDA. It is also worth noting that the EBITDA margin increased from 3.1% to 8.4%, even after consolidating the EBITDA of CCL, whose margins are compatible with the fuel distribution segment, i.e. much lower than those of sugar and ethanol production.

3rd Quarter of Fiscal Year 2009 – November, December and January
 
Paulo Diniz,
CFO & IRO
EBITDAH of R$359.5 million is Cosan’s best ever quarterly result
     
Luiz Felipe Jansen de Mello,
Investor Relations
 
 
Having consolidated two months of the results generated by Esso, now Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes S.A. (CCL), and benefiting from the impact of the devaluation of the Real on its exports, Cosan S.A. (BOVESPA: CSAN3) closed the 3Q’09 with EBITDAH of R$359.5 million, an all-time quarterly record, giving a YTD’09 figure of R$608.7 million, already 53% up on the FY’08 total.
Guilherme A. Prado,
Treasury
The healthy operating result was sufficient to absorb interest expenses and expenses from depreciation, goodwill amortizations and the exchange variation on dollar-denominated debt. As a result, Cosan reversed the 3Q’08 net loss, closing the 3Q’09 wiith net income of R$5.2 million.
     
Mauricio Sartorelli,
Controller
The 2008/09 harvest came to an end in December and Cosan also established a new crushing record, having processed 44.2 million tonnes of sugarcane, producing 1,715.8 million liters of ethanol and 3,267.7 thousand tonnes of sugar.

Cosan closed the 3Q’09 with net debt of R$3,521.1 million, inflated by the R$1.1 billion issue of promissory notes used to finance the acquisition of CCL and the consolidation of US$175.0 million in existing floating rate notes into its balance sheet. This debt corresponds to 4.2 times EBITDA in the 12 months ended January 31, 2009, including 12 months of CCL’s results.

     A. Market Overview
     
 
§
According to the latest figures from UNICA, the sugarcane growers’ association, crushed cane volume in Brazil’s Central-South totaled 499.6 million tonnes through January 15, 15.88% more than last year’s total harvest. This figure benefited from the 46 plants still in operation, which crushed 2.34 million tonnes in the first fortnight of the year. Around 10 of these units intend to keep crushing until the beginning of the next harvest. Sugar production in the period amounted to 26.75 million tonnes, 2.11% up on the 2007/08 crop, while ethanol output climbed 22.59% to 24.79 billion liters. Of this total, hydrous accounted for 16.2 billion liters, 23.81% up year-on-year, and anhydrous for 8.59 billion liters, up by 20.36%. The hefty ethanol upturn was due to the production bias towards this product, which accounted for 60.26% of total cane TSR (sucrose content). Brazil’s capacity to alter its production mix at will has been diminishing, since recent investments have been concentrated in boosting ethanol output. Until the first fortnight of January, plants producing ethanol only were responsible for 13% of total crushed cane and production of 5.31 billion liters of ethanol.
     
 
The Northeast harvest is nearing its end, with estimated production of 3.65 million tonnes of sugar and 1.96 billion liters of ethanol through the end of January, 4.3% down and 18% up, respectively, on the same period last year. Ethanol’s share of cane output increased, rising from 40% of the total, in 2007/08, to 45%, and yield increased by 1%.
     
 
The global sugar supply and demand ratio is still favoring prices, given prospects of a 2009/10 deficit that may exceed 10 million tonnes, according to some market estimates. While there are no signs of significant reductions in demand, supply has fallen dramatically.
     
Loosening of Indian import restrictions paves the way for Brazilian exports
As India’s harvest has moved ahead, sugar output estimates have been frequently revised downwards due to the reduction in planted area, lower yield and less sucrose recovery. The latest news points to production of between 16 and 17 million tonnes, almost 10 million less than the previous (record) harvest. As a result, the Indian government decided to ease its import restrictions in order to put a brake on domestic sugar prices, which reached INR 2,115/100kg (equivalent to ¢US$19,6/lb) at the close of January, 20.4% up on the end-of-October figure. In February, the government approved a tonne-for-tonne policy, allowing local plants to import raw sugar, with a commitment to export a similar volume of refined sugar in up to 24 months. Taking advantage of this new policy, Brazil had already shipped 800,000 tonnes to India until February.
     
 
Production in some other Asian countries also looks set to fall thanks to poor weather and two years of low returns. In Australia, where many plants have closed in the last few years, the recent rains have further reduced production. China was hit by frost at the beginning of 2008 and by reduced fertilizer use, while in Pakistan, the reduction in planted area was aggravated by lower yield, as in India.
     
 
International raw sugar prices averaged ¢US$11.79/lb in the 3Q’09, 6% down on the previous quarter and 10.1% up on the ¢US$10.68/lb recorded in the 3Q’08. On the other hand, the hefty devaluation of the Real continued throughout the quarter, more than offsetting the international price slide. Raw sugar prices in Reais closed the 3Q’09 at ¢R$29.35/lb, 15.4% up on the 2Q08 and 34.9% more than the 3Q’08 figure of ¢R$21.76/lb.

Funds rebuild sugar market positions thanks to the sector’s sound fundamentals
In November and December, major hedge funds, plus smaller funds and speculators, maintained the previous quarters’ trend, reducing their net long positions from 87,000 lots at the close of October to 77,000 at the end of December, as result of increased redemptions by fund shareholders. As of January, however, these positions began to build up again, reaching 140,000 lots and 21% of total open contracts, evidence of investor confidence in the sector’s sound fundamentals. It is worth remembering that index funds sold around 40,000 lots in January, but with no undue impact on prices given that this reordering was carried out in a gradual manner and had already been built into prices by the market.
     
   
     
Recovery of international market prices
International refined sugar prices have been reacting to the initial decline triggered by the flight from commodities to more conservative positions, sustained by the sector’s solid fundamentals. Prices closed January at US$373.5/t, with an upward bias. In the 3Q’09, they averaged US$328.3/t, 11.1% down on the previous quarter and 6.8% up year-on-year. The white premium closed the quarter at US$94.17/t, 36.1% up on the 2Q09, reflecting the reduction in refined sugar supply due to: (i) the transition of India and the EU from major exporters to possible importers; and (ii) the reduction in shipments from Brazil following the massive exports at the beginning of the current harvest.

Export demand remained strong, thanks to low freight costs and reduced physical discounts. Between May/08 and February/09, Brazil shipped 18.5 million tonnes abroad, 12.6% up on the same period last year. In the 3Q’09, the Baltic Exchange Dry Index, which measures freight prices, averaged 821.4 points, 82.3% down on the previous quarter’s average. Since February, however, a correction got under way and prices peaked at 2298 points at the beginning of March.
     
   
     
 
Domestic crystal sugar prices (ESALQ) averaged R$33.12/50kg bag (or R$662.34/t) in the 3Q’09, 9.1% up on the previous three months and 37.9% up year-on-year. The increase reflected reduced crystal supply in the Central-South, due to: (i) exceptionally high exports; (ii) producers massively favoring raw production; and (ii) retention of sugar by the banks as a guarantee of debt payments, although there are no estimates of the precise volume involved.
     
   
     
 
Domestic hydrous ethanol prices (ESALQ) averaged R$0.752/liter in the 3Q’09, 2.8% up on the previous three months, while anhydrous prices dipped by 0.7% to an average R$0.882/liter. In relation to the 3Q’08, hydrous moved up by 3.9% and anhydrous by 8.2%.

According to preliminary figures from Secex (Brazil’s Foreign Trade Secretariat), ethanol exports from the 2008/09 harvest through February/09 reached the record level of 4.28 billion liters, 43.8% up year-on-year. In January and February however, as expected, export demand was 47.1% lower than the same period last year, totaling 309.6 million liters.
     
   
     
 
According to Brazil’s National Petroleum Agency (ANP), domestic retail gasoline prices averaged R$2.477/liter at the end of the 3Q’09, while hydrous ethanol averaged R$1.541/liter, giving a parity of 62.2%. Ethanol prices only exceeded 75% of gasoline prices in five Brazilian states (Acre, Amapá, Pará, Piauí and Roraima). In São Paulo state, the country’s largest consumption center, the ratio stood at only 54.9%.
     
 
Despite the economic slowdown, ethanol consumption continued to move up. According to the ANP, hydrous consumption climbed 25.7% year-on-year in November and December, reaching 2.5 billion liters. The year-to-date total stood at 13.3 billion liters, 41.9% up on the year before. Year-to-date anhydrous sales came to 6.3 billion liters, 7.7% more than the same period in the previous year, pushed by the 3.5% upturn in the consumption of C gasoline (the gasoline/anhydrous ethanol blend), which totaled 4.4 billion liters.
     
 
In December and January, Brazilian vehicle sales began to react to the government’s auto industry incentives, although they still recorded a year-on-year downturn. These incentives included, as of December, a R$4 billion injection to generate more liquidity and facilitate vehicle financing and a reduction in the IPI (federal VAT) rate on vehicle sales until March 2009.
     
 
According to Anfavea, the auto manufacturers’ association, new car sales totaled 540,000 units in the 3Q’09. Flex-fuel vehicles exceeded 465,000 units, or 86.2% of the total. January’s sales fell 7.6% year-on-year, versus market expectations of a close-to-20% drop, while in February sales were slightly higher than the same period of the previous year, reaching 191,285 units.

In the distribution sector, despite the reduced pace of vehicle sales, there is still plenty of room for companies affiliated to Sindicom (an association of the 5 fuel largest fuel distributors) to consolidate the distribution segment by increasing their market share, especially in relation to the independent gas stations. In 2008, Sindicom affiliates were responsible for 84% of total diesel sales, 76,4% of C gasoline sales and 59.% of hydrous ethanol sales, representing respective annual sales increases of 2.3 billion, 0.3 billion and 2.6 billion liters. Also in 2008, sales by all distributors totaled 44.8 billion liters of diesel, 25,2 billion de liters of C gasoline  and 13.3 billion liters of hydrous ethanol, respective increases of 7%, 3.5% and 41.9% over 2007.
     
   
     
Dollar hovers around new level of R$2.30/US$
The dollar remained highly volatile throughout the 3Q’09, although concentrated within a narrower band between R$2.12 and R$2.50/US$. The Real closed the period at R$2.32/US$, 9.5% down on the quarter before and 29.3% less than the end of January 2008.

B. Operating Performance
     
 
Net revenue totaled R$2,565.6 million in the 3Q’09, following the consolidation of two months of operations (December 2008 and January 2009) of Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes (CCL), 280.7% up year-on-year.
     
 
EBITDA of R$234.5 million was the best quarterly result since the 2Q’07, until then the Company’s best ever figure, and already 35% more than in the FY’08, Cosan’s last fiscal year.
     
 
EBITDAH of R$359.5 million was also a new quarterly record, the best result since the constitution of Cosan.
     
 
The Company posted net income of R$5.2 million, despite the heavy weight of depreciation and amortizations and the financial expenses from the exchange variation, reversing the 3Q’08 net loss.

Exchange rate helps 3Q’09 exports
Following the consolidation of CCL, fuel distribution began to play a bigger role in Cosan’s revenue mix, contributing 58.5% of the 3Q’09 total. However, as in the previous quarter, the Real continued to depreciate against the U.S. dollar, which, in terms of sugar and ethanol production and sales, favored Cosan’s exports and, consequently, sugar sales, with a bigger emphasis on overseas shipments. As a result, sugar accounted for 21.1% of total sales, while ethanol produced and sold (excluding distributed) accounted for 14.2%. Lubricant distribution, another CCL contribution, accounted for 3.4% of net consolidated sales and other products and services for at least 2.8%.

Dollar prices and exchange rate push up average prices in R$ by more than 50%
The hefty 94.4% upturn in sugar revenue was fueled by the 28.6% year-on-year increase in sales volume to 808,800 tonnes, but chiefly benefited from the 51.6% jump in average prices, in turn due to the exchange rate used to convert exports to Reais. However, average export prices moved up strongly, from 11.00 ¢US$/lb in the 3Q’08, to 13.05 ¢US$/lb in the 3Q’09, dollar growth of 18.7%. In line with Cosan’s commercial policy, inventories closed the quarter at 967,000 tonnes, 11.8% higher than at the end of the 3Q’08.

High inter-harvest ethanol inventories
Prospects of high ethanol consumption and low inter-harvest inventories were crucial in the ”full tank”  strategy, which reduced sales volume by 9.2% over the 3Q’08 to 438.1 million liters and raised end-of-period stocks to 719.4 million liters. However the volume reduction, which was part of the strategy, pushed average prices up by 12.45% year-on-year to R$831 per thousand liters. It is worth noting that, although ethanol imports from the U.S. and Europe fell in the 3Q’09, Cosan recorded ethanol exports of 90,500 m3 in the quarter, all of which from sales recorded in previous periods.

Electricity sales begin to impact revenue and EBITDA
Revenue from other CAA products and services moved up by 50.5% year-on-year, due to: (i) R$7.7 million in revenue from electricity sales, this time billed by the three operational units (Costa Pinto, Rafard and Gasa); (ii) revenue growth of R$6.2 million from the sale of around 273,000 tonnes of sugar to third parties, mostly from the Bonfim plant in the Araraquara region; (iii) a 20.7%, or R$2.4 million, increase in revenue from Da Barra products; and (iv) a 90.4% upturn in revenue from port services to R$7.4 million, also favored by the exchange rate, given that sugar loading prices are fixed in dollars.

Revenue growth from fuel distribution led by increasing ethanol volumes
Although the 3Q’09 was the first quarter in which the Company consolidated CCL’s results, it opted to compare Cosan’s revenue, volume and prices in December/08 and January/09 in the 3Q’09 with those in December/07 and January/08 in the 3Q’08. In this comparison, volume moved up by 1.0% and average prices by 1.5%, resulting in a 2.5% increase in net fuel revenue. In segment terms, ethanol distribution sales volume climbed by 27.8%, or 28 million liters, thanks to increased demand from flex-fuel cars. Diesel volume fell by 5.1%, or 16 million liters, due to reduced sales to industry, transport firms and highway service stations, pulled down by the impact of the global financial crisis on economic activity. On the price front, it is worth noting the reduction in the price of ethanol acquired by CCL from the ethanol plants in the closing months of 2008, due to increased market supply of the product. As a result, CCL’s sale price fell in the same period, with an adverse impact on revenue. As for diesel, the 9.0% hike in refinery-gate prices in May/08 and the mandatory addition of between 1 and 3% of biodiesel to the product were entirely passed on to prices.

Lubricant sales volume fell 19.2% year-on-year, or 3.7 million liters, 2.5 million of which in the distribution and gas station segment, partially due to the slowdown in industrial activity triggered by the financial crisis, and partially to the bringing forward of lubricant purchases by CCL’s main customers to October and November as a result of December’s change in control. Sales to the industrial segment declined by 1.1 million liters, largely for the same reasons. However, the average unit price climbed by 36.3%, chiefly thanks to the exchange-driven increase in base oil prices. As a result of these two factors, lubricant revenue moved up by 10.2%.

The cost of goods sold and services rendered by Cosan totaled R$2,187.6 million, pushed by the new fuel distribution business (CCL), which contributed 66.1% of the total. 
     
 
In terms of sugar and ethanol production and sales, COGS moved up by 13.8% due to the 7.2% upturn in sales volume, the 28.6% increase in sugar volume, the 9.2% reduction in ethanol sales volume and the 6.4% rise in the unit cost from R$390/t of sugar equivalent to R$415/t. Two factors were primarily responsible for the latter upturn. The first was the increase in the cost of cane acquired from third parties (priced by sucrose content or ATR), which climbed from R$0.2411/kg, in the 3Q08, to R$0.2696/kg, raising cane costs from R$45.47/t to 46.70/t, albeit still below the cost of Cosan’s own cane which remained flat at R$51/t. In addition, in this harvest the Company expanded the share of suppliers’ cane from 46% to 50%, reducing the impact on the average cane cost. The second factor was the 4.11% reduction in the quantity of the ATR, from 144.08 kg per tonne of cane in 2007/08 to 138.17kg/t in 2008/09. It is also worth remembering that processing costs not only lagged period inflation but actually

In the 3Q’09, sugar recorded the biggest gross margin (38.9%), equivalent to R$260 per tonne of sugar sold. It is worth remembering, however, that this product, when exported, incurs selling expenses consisting of highway freight charges to Santos as well as port loading expenses, unlike ethanol sales which largely take place in the plants themselves and incur no such expenses. Fuel and lubricant gross margins narrowed, chiefly due to reduced demand for diesel and the impact of the higher base oil prices on lubricant sales. On the other hand, despite the reductions in producers’ margins, final consumer ethanol prices remained at levels that permitted a wider distribution margin.

Selling expenses move up over the previous quarter, due to higher sugar exports and the need to hire external warehousing facilities
CAA’s selling expenses increased by 25.1% over the 3Q’08 to R$91.8 million, thanks to the 28.6% upturn in sugar sales volume, especially exports, which climbed by 44.5%. The greater need for product storage this harvest, given the Company’s strategy of concentrating sales at the end of the fiscal year, led to the hiring of space in third-party storage facilities, generating additional expenses of R$4.1 million. Ethanol export freight expenses moved up from R$50/m³, in the 3Q’08, to R$61/m³, due to the alteration in the export plant mix, with a bigger share of the plants more distant from Santos (Araçatuba region). In addition ethanol loading expenses climbed by R$25/m³ due to the 3Q’09 exchange rate.

G&A expenses totaled R$72.3 million, 44.9% up on the R$49.9 million recorded in the 3Q’08, mainly due, in addition to the absorption of CCL, to the creation of new business lines, including the Benalcool and Jataí industrial units, which involved expenses of around R$9.6 million. In addition, consulting services related to the integration of CCL generated expenses of R$3.7 million.

Given the extended length of the harvest this year, Cosan incurred extra expenses related to social assistance for its agricultural and industrial harvest workers that were not incurred in the 3Q’08, in addition to the expenses (commented on in the 2Q’09 earnings release) from the hiring of the entire cane-cutting workforce directly by Cosan under the CLT (registered salary) system, thereby cutting out sub-contractors.

Other operating expenses amounted to R$14.4 million, mainly comprising net reversals of R$5.5 million in  provisions for tax contingencies and R$ 4,5 million in storage, dispatch and take-or-pay revenue from port and logistics operations relative to performance premiums in sugar loading services and compensation for unshipped contracted volumes.
     
EBITDAH of R$359.5 million is the best quarterly result in Cosan’s history
Given these operating results, adjusted for depreciation and amortization, Cosan recorded 3Q’09 EBITDA of R$ 234.5 million, a vigorous turn-around in relation to the near-break-even figure in the 3Q’08. This figure included R$25.7 million, or 11.5% of the total, from CCL. In addition, if we consider financial results from derivative hedge instruments, EBITDAH reached R$359.5 million, 280.8% up year-on-year and an all-time Company record.

However, it is worth remembering that Cosan’s quarterly EBITDA considers the period’s operating revenue, costs and expenses before period depreciation booked under production costs and not depreciation booked under COGS. Thus in inter-harvest quarters when production is low, such as the 3Q’09, reported EBITDA is lower than effective operational cash flow. If EBITDA were disclosed considering depreciation under COGS, the EBITDA margin would be around 5 percentage points higher. In the coming fiscal year, with the adoption of international accounting practices (IFRS), Cosan will begin reporting EBITDA and depreciation relative to period sales and not production.
     
Exchange variation impacts quarter’s financial result
Net financial expenses moved up strongly over the 3Q’08 to R$159.2 million, chiefly due to the R$179.0 million impact of the exchange variation on dollar-denominated debt, reflecting the hefty devaluation of the Real against the U.S. currency. However, this had no cash effect, since it was calculated on the principal of the long-term/perpetual debt. Nevertheless, there was also a big increase in cash-based charges on Cosan’s gross debt, caused by the upturn in the debt itself, due to the recent acquisition of CCL, and the increase in the value in Reais of interest on the dollar debt.

As in the 3Q’08, derivative transactions played an important role in the quarterly results, restoring the prices of products sold and the export exchange rate to levels fixed in previous periods. Commodity derivatives generated gains of R$26.3 million, versus gains of R$8.3 million in the 3Q’08, while FX derivatives generated gains of R$98.7 million, against gains of R$84.8 million in the 3Q’08.
At the close of the 3Q’09, Cosan had 651,500 tonnes of VHP sugar tied to the NY11, hedged at an average price of 13.12 ¢US$/lb, a position which, marked to market, has an estimated market value of R$8.9 million, and 15,000 tonnes of refined sugar tied to the LND05, hedged at an average price of US$315.21/t, which, marked to market, has an estimated negative market value of R$2.0 million. Cosan also had US$539.4 million hedged at an average exchange rate of R$2.03/US$ with an estimated negative market value of R$174.4 million. The market values of the derivative positions at the end of the 3Q’09 did not affect the quarterly results.
 
     
Beginning of goodwill amortization from the acquisition of CCL increases non-cash expenses by R$24.8 million
Expenses from goodwill amortizations increased by 35.1% to R$65.2 million. Of this total, R$24.8 million refers to two months of amortizations of the goodwill from the acquisition of CCL, totaling R$1,488.2 million, corresponding to the difference between R$1,683.7 million, the price paid to acquire 100% of the shares, and R$195.5 million, the value of CCL’s shareholders’ equity on November 30, 2008. This goodwill will be amortized over 10 years.
     
 
The non-operating result of R$105.9 million included capital gains of R$109.5 million from the sale of 18,230 hectares of land Cosan owned through Agrícola Ponte Alta to Radar for R$286.3 million, equivalent to R$15.703/hectare.
     
Cosan records net income of R$5.2 million, reversing the 3Q’08 loss of R$71.4 million
After deducting all expenses, including R$179.0 million (non-cash) from the exchange variation and R$65.2 million (also non-cash) from the amortization of goodwill, and thanks to record EBITDAH of R$359.5 million, Cosan converted a net loss of R$71.4 million in the 3Q’08 into net income of R$5.2 million in the 3Q’09.
     
 
C. Financial Situation
     
 
The Company closed the 3Q’09 with gross financial debt of R$4,210.7 million, substantially higher than the R$1,743.8 million reported at the end of the 3Q’08, chiefly due to the November 20, 2008 promissory notes issue and BNDES funding and the consolidation of CCL’s existing pre-acquisition floating rate notes. In addition, the exchange rate of R$2.3162/US$ pushed up the value in Reais of dollar-denominated debt considerably.

With cash and cash equivalents of R$ 689.7 million (excluding the US$200 million in cash held by the controlling shareholder Cosan Ltd.), net debt closed the 3Q’09 at R$3,521.1 million, equivalent to 4.2 times EBITDAH in the 12 months ended January 31, 2009 (including CCL’s LTM results). However, maintaining the focus on the debt profile and term, and given that most debt is due in the long term (2017) or perpetual, net debt due in up to 5 years is only 1.3 times LTM EBITDA. Thus the 35:65 short-term/long-term ratio and the group’s cash reserves put Cosan in a comfortable liquidity position.

The 20.5% reduction in operating capex over the 3Q’08 was led by planting expenses. Throughout the 3Q’09, Cosan maintained its declared intention of reducing renewed planting area in order to minimize the impact of surplus sugar supply on installed industrial capacity. On the other hand, inter-harvest industrial maintenance expenses moved up 21.4% year-on-year due to the speeding up of

    maintenance procedures in order to equip the plants for the earlier-than-usual beginning of the next harvest in the coming fiscal year.
     
 
Other important investments included: (i) R$36.8 million in the acquisition of mechanized harvesting equipment; and (ii) R$2.0 million in the construction of pipelines to carry vignasse to the plantations for environmental reasons and to reduce dependence on fertilizers. On the industrial side, R$20.6 million was divided among 133 projects, many of which can only take place in the off season, notably: (i) R$3.6 million in the continuous fermentation project and the heat exchangers in Bonfim, aiming to increase industrial and electrical efficiency; and (ii) R$2.4 million to replace the gas purification systems in Barra’s operational boilers.
     
The Jataí greenfield, project moves ahead at an accelerated pace, in preparation for beginning crushing operations in 2009
As for expansion capex, the main expenditure was on the Jataí greenfield project, which absorbed R$ 166.3 million, 36.9% of total capex, most of which went to the electrical installations, distillery and other high-value components. It is worth remembering that cane harvesting in Jataí will be 100% mechanized, thereby avoiding burning in line with Cosan’s environmental preservation policy.
     
 
Co-generation investments totaled R$103.5 million, most of which went to the Gasa and Bonfim units, which absorbed R$ 29.8 million and R$35.5 million, respectively, and are scheduled for start-up in 2010. Cosan is finalizing the Costa Pinto, Rafard and Gasa projects and has already begun planning investments in Diamante and Univalem, all of which already have energy sale contracts.
     
 
Finally, period investments not related to capex comprised: (i) the acquisition of CCL for R$1,683.7 million (actual expenditure of R$1,451.5 million after deducting CCL’s shareholders’ equity and cash position); (ii) R$82.2 million, equivalent to US$35.0 million, related to the second tranche of the capital transfer to Radar; (iii) pre-operating expenses of R$5.5 million in Cosan Centro-Oeste (Jataí project) and Cosan Bioenergia (co-generation project).
     
 
E. Material Facts
   
 
On January 27, 2009, Cosan announced that the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) had approved the admission of the Company’s subscription warrants for trading on the stock market. These warrants constituted an additional benefit to the subscribers of each new share resulting from the Cosan S.A. capital increase which was concluded on November 10, 2008. The subscription warrants can be traded as independent securities under the ticker CSAN11 on the São Paulo Stock Exchange (BM&F Bovespa S.A. Bolsa de Valores) and may be exercised at any time until December 31, 2009.
     
 
In March 2009, Rumo Logística S.A. entered into an agreement with ALL for the rail transportation of bulk sugar and other sugarcane by-products. The agreement envisages investments of approximately R$ 1.2 billion by Rumo, which will be raised in such a way as not to increase the group’s debt. The funds will be allocated as follows: (i) R$535 million to duplicating, expanding and improving the track and yards of the Bauru-Santos/SP rail corridor; (ii) R$ 435 million to the acquisition of locomotives and railcars; and (iii) R$ 206 million to the construction and expansion of terminals. In return, ALL will guarantee (i) a minimum transport volume curve, reaching 1.09 million tonnes per month as of the 4th year; (ii) competitive tariffs in comparison with road transport; (iii) management of the works and indication of rolling stock suppliers; and (iv) payment of rent on equipment in proportion to the volume of merchandise transported. These investments will permit the transportation of around 9 million tonnes per year to the Port of Santos if the contractual conditions are implemented.

Report of independent registered public accounting firm


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Cosan Limited
 
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Cosan Limited and subsidiaries as of January 31, 2009, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended January 31, 2009 and 2008 and the condensed consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity for the nine-month period ended January 31, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
 
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Cosan Limited and subsidiaries as of April 30, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended not presented herein and in our report dated June 30, 2008, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2008, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Operations

Cosan Limited (“Cosan” and “the Company”) was incorporated in Bermuda as an exempted company on April 30, 2007. In connection with its incorporation, Cosan Limited issued 1,000 shares of common stock for US$10.00 to Mr. Rubens Ometto Silveira Mello, who indirectly controls Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio and its subsidiaries (“Cosan S.A.”).

The companies included in the consolidated financial statements have as their primary activity the production of ethanol and sugar in Brazil. They are constantly pursuing opportunities to capitalize on the growing demand for ethanol and sugar in the world. They are focused on increasing production capacity through expansion of existing facilities, development of greenfield projects and, as opportunities present themselves, acquisitions.

Cosan S.A. was the predecessor to Cosan and was the primary operating business in the consolidated group prior to a reorganization in August, 2007. In contemplation of an initial public offering on August 1, 2007, Aguassanta Participações S.A. and Usina Costa Pinto S.A. Açúcar e Álcool, controlling shareholders of Cosan S.A. and both indirectly controlled by Mr. Rubens Ometto Silveira Mello, the controlling shareholder, contributed their common shares of Cosan S.A. to Cosan in exchange for 96,332,044 of our class B1 common shares. The common shares contributed to the Company by Aguassanta Participações S.A. and Usina Costa Pinto S.A. Açúcar e Álcool consisted of 96,332,044 common shares of Cosan, representing 51.0% of Cosan S.A. outstanding common shares. As a result of this reorganization Cosan Ltd. became the controlling shareholder of Cosan S.A.. The reorganization was accounted for as a reorganization of companies under common control in a manner similar to a pooling of interests.

On August 17, 2007, the Company concluded its global offering of 111,678,000 class A common shares which resulted in gross proceeds in the amount of US$1,171,027. As a result of the global offering, Cosan’s shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and on the São Paulo Stock Exchange (Bovespa) by BDR (Brazilian Depositary Receipts).

The costs directly attributable to the offering were charged against the gross proceeds of the offering in a total amount of US$52,594. Therefore the net proceeds related to the IPO totaled US$1,118,433.

Operations (Continued)

On April 23, 2008, the Cosan S.A. entered into an agreement with ExxonMobil International Holding B.V., or “Exxon”, for the acquisition of 100% of the capital of Esso Brasileira de Petróleo Ltda. and its subsidiaries (“Essobrás”), a distributor and seller of fuels and producer and seller of lubricants and specialty petroleum products of ExxonMobil in Brazil. On December 1, 2008 the Company completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Essobrás see further discussion regarding this acquisition at Note 3.

On August 29, 2008 the Company held an Annual and Special General Shareholders Meeting and unanimously approved the modification of the end of fiscal year from April 30 to March 31 of each year.

On August 28, 2008, Cosan S.A. announced the incorporation of a new affiliate named Radar Propriedades Agrícolas S.A. (“Radar”), which engages in farm real estate investments in Brazil by identifying and acquiring rural properties likely to experience an increase in value and acquiring them for later leasing and/or sale. The initial capital contribution was US$185,000, of which US$35,000 was invested by Cosan (18.92%) and US$150,000 by another shareholder (81.08%). Pursuant to a subscription agreement, the parties have committed to an additional capital contribution equal to the U.S. dollar equivalent of the Brazilian real amounts initially contributed, which will be undertaken when the initial capital contribution is approximately 50% invested.

Under the terms of a shareholders’ agreement Cosan S.A. appoints four of the seven members of the Board of Directors and has certain participative rights in the operation of the entity.  Based on the terms of this agreement, management originally determined that it had control of Radar, and consolidated its financial results in the financial statements for the second quarter ended October 31, 2008.  However, management has subsequently determined that it does not control Radar, but has the ability to exert significant influence in its operations.  As a result, the investment in Radar should be accounted for using the equity method instead of consolidating its results in the financial statements of Cosan.  The financial statements of Radar were included in the consolidated financial statements of Cosan for the second quarter in error.  Management has evaluated the impact of this error on its previously issued consolidated financial statements and determined the impact is immaterial and will not restate these financial statements.

Presentation of the consolidated financial statements

a.
Basis of reporting for interim financial statements

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s results for the periods presented. Interim results for the nine-month period ended January 31, 2009, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cosan Limited and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with Cosan`s annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008.

The accounts of Cosan are maintained in U.S. Dollars and the accounts of its subsidiaries are maintained in Brazilian reais, which have been translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 52 “Foreign Currency Translation” using the real as the functional currency.

The exchange rate of the Brazilian real (R$) to the US$ was R$2.3162=US$ 1.00 at January 31, 2009 and R$1.6872=US$1.00 at April 30, 2008.

b.
Use of estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These estimates and assumptions are reviewed and updated regularly to reflect recent experience.

Recently issued accounting standards

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”) which replaces FASB Statement No. 141, Business Combinations. This Statement establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree; recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase; and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. This Statement is effective for Cosan as of May 1, 2009.  This Statement will only impact Cosan’s financial statements in the event of a business combination on or after May 1, 2009.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements” (“SFAS 160”) which amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements.  Before this Statement was issued, limited guidance existed for reporting noncontrolling interests. This Statement changes the way the consolidated income statement is presented. It requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated statement of income, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. This Statement is effective for Cosan as of May 1, 2009. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact, if any, this would have on its consolidated financial statements.

Recently issued accounting standards (Continued)

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" (Statement 161). Statement 161, which amends FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, requires companies with derivative instruments to disclose information about how and why a company uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133, and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect a company's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. The required disclosures include the fair value of derivative instruments and their gains or losses in tabular format, information about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements, counterparty credit risk, and the company's strategies and objectives for using derivative instruments. The Statement expands the current disclosure framework in Statement 133. Statement 161 is effective prospectively for periods beginning on or after November 15, 2008. Early adoption is encouraged. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact, if any, this would have on its consolidated financial statements.

Acquisition

On December 1, 2008, Cosan S.A. and Usina da Barra S.A. Açúcar e Álcool (“Usina da Barra”), through Cosan S.A. `s subsidiary Cosanpar Participações Ltda. (“Cosanpar”), acquired, for US$715,948 cash, 100 percent of the outstanding shares of Essobrás, a distributor in Brazil of oil products, ethanol, lubricants, and aviation fuel as well as an operator of convenience stores.  The network of service stations to which Essobrás distributes such products is comprised of more than 1,500 service stations.  The results of Essobrás operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date.

As additional consideration for the purchase, Cosan S.A. will pay to the sellers as a contingent payment an amount based on a percentage of gross revenues of Essobrás and other amounts based on the quantity of barrels of some ExxonMobil products sold during a 10 year period. These contingent payments will be recorded as additional cost of the acquired entity when the contingency is resolved.

Acquisition (Continued)

In addition to the purchase price, Cosan agreed to buy Notes issued by Essobrás on December 16, 1999 and December 10, 1999 pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement dated December 8, 1999, as amended, in the aggregate principal amount of US$175,000, plus accrued interest on such amount which was held by ExxonMobil Capital N.V.

On January 16, 2009 the Company changed the corporate name of Essobrás to Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes S.A. (“Cosan CL”).

From March 1992 until December 2001 Essobrás did not pay the COFINS tax levied on sales or this tax was paid and used to offset or otherwise applied against other taxes on the sale of fuels and other oil derivatives which have been discussed with the taxing authorities. During this period Esso has made judicial deposits, which are restricted cash placed on deposit with the court and are held in judicial escrow for certain COFINS cases. The sellers have agreed to indemnify Cosan for any COFINS matters and any losses related thereto if Essobrás loses these proceedings.  If Essobrás wins the proceedings, Cosan must pay the judicial deposits and related interest to the sellers.  Judicial deposits of US$36,961 related to this matter are included in net assets acquired.

The following table summarizes the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  These amounts are preliminary as third-party valuations of certain intangible assets, fixed assets and other assets and liabilities are currently in process.

Resolution No. 2471 - Special Agricultural Financing Program (Programa Especial de Saneamento de Ativos), or PESA

To extend the repayment period of debts incurred by Brazilian agricultural producers, the Brazilian government passed Law 9.138 followed by Central Bank Resolution 2,471, which, together, formed the PESA program. PESA offered certain agricultural producers with certain types of debt the opportunity to acquire Brazilian treasury bills (“CTNs”) in an effort to restructure their agricultural debt. The face value of the Brazilian treasury bills was the equivalent of the value of the restructured debt and was for a term of 20 years.

Long-term debt (Continued)

Resolution No. 2471 - Special Agricultural Financing Program (Programa Especial de Saneamento de Ativos), or PESA (Continued)

The acquisition price was calculated by the present value, discounted at a rate of 12% per year or at the equivalent of 10.4% of its face value. The CTNs were deposited as a guarantee with a financial institution and cannot be renegotiated until the outstanding balance is paid in full. The outstanding balance associated with the principal is adjusted in accordance with the IGP-M until the expiration of the restructuring term, which is also 20 years, at which point the debt will be discharged in exchange for the CTNs. Because the CTNs will have the same face value as the outstanding balance at the end of the term, it will not be necessary to incur additional debt to pay PESA debt.

On July 31, 2003, the Central Bank issued Resolution 3,114, authorizing the reduction of up to five percentage points of PESA related interest rates, effectively lowering the above-mentioned rates to 3%, 4% and 5%, respectively. The CTNs held by Cosan S.A. as of January 31, 2009 and April 30, 2008 amounted to US$90,890 and US$113,877, respectively, and classified as other non-current assets.

Senior notes due 2017

On January 26, 2007, the wholly-owned subsidiary Cosan Finance Limited issued US$400,000 of senior notes in the international capital markets. These senior notes, listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, mature in November 2017 and bear interest at a rate of 7% per annum, payable semi-annually. The senior notes are guaranteed by Cosan S.A., and its subsidiary, Usina da Barra.

Perpetual notes

On January 24 and February 10, 2006, Cosan issued perpetual notes which are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange - EURO MTF. These notes bear interest at a rate of 8.25% per year, payable quarterly on May 15, August 15, November 15 and February 15 of each year, beginning May 15, 2006.

These notes may, at the discretion of Cosan S.A., be redeemed on any interest payment date subsequent to February 15, 2011. The notes are guaranteed by Cosan S.A. and by Usina da Barra.

Long-term debt (Continued)

Promissory Notes

On November 17, 2008, Cosan S.A. issued one series of 44 registered promissory notes for US$520,021. The notes which are due in one year, will bear interest, due at maturity, at the average rates of DI - Interbank Deposits plus 3%.

The notes are secured by a guarantee from Mr. Rubens Ometto Silveira Mello (Controlling Shareholder) and collateralized by a chattel mortgage to be established for the units of interest issued by Cosan CL which are or may be held by the Company.

Cosan S.A. and its subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictive covenants related to their indebtedness, including the following: (i) limitation on transactions with shareholders and affiliated companies; (ii) limitation on payment of dividends and other payments affecting subsidiaries; and, (iii) limitation on guarantees granted on assets.

Also, Cosan S.A. and its subsidiaries are subject to other financial restrictive covenants, as follows:

-     net debt/EBTIDA ratio must be less than 3.5 to 1;
-     current asset/current liability ratio equal or higher than 1.3; and
-     long-term indebtedness/shareholders´ equity ratio must be lower than 1.3.

At January 31, 2009, Cosan S.A. was in compliance with all debt covenants.

Actuarial assumptions

Actuarial assumptions used for the calculations were at acquisition date:
Assumptions used to determine benefit obligations

Discount rate
    9.00 %
Rate of compensation increase

Assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost

Discount rate
    9.00 %
Expected long-term rates of return on plan assets
    9.25 %
Rate of compensation increase
    5.37 %

The discount rate is determined using bond portfolios with an average maturity approximating that of the liabilities or spot yield curves, both of which are constructed using high-quality, local-currency-denominated bonds. The expected long-term rate of return is based on the portfolio as a whole and not on the sum of the returns on individual asset categories.

The accumulated benefit obligation at the acquisition date is as fallows:

Estimated liability for legal proceedings and labor claims and commitments (Continued)

Cosan and its subsidiaries are parties in various ongoing labor claims, civil and tax proceedings in Brazil arising in the normal course of its business. Respective provisions for contingencies were recorded considering those cases in which the likelihood of loss has been rated as probable. Management believes resolution of these disputes will have no effect significantly different than the estimated amounts accrued.

Judicial deposits recorded by Cosan S.A. and its subsidiaries amounting to US$153,569 at January 31, 2009 (US$27,265 at April 30, 2008, previously recorded under other non-current assets in the balance sheet), have been made for certain of these suits. Judicial deposits are restricted assets of Cosan S.A. and its subsidiaries placed on deposit with the court and held in judicial escrow pending legal resolution of the related legal proceedings.

Judicial deposits in the amount of US$36,961are subject to an indemnification agreement with the seller of Essobrás.  If Essobrás prevails in its defense of certain pre-acquisition COFINS tax disputes, these judicial deposits will be returned to the seller.

Tax contingencies mainly refer to suits filed by Cosan S.A. and its subsidiaries, discussing several aspects of the legislation ruling PIS, Cofins, contributions to the extinct IAA- Sugar and Ethanol Institute, and the Excise tax (IPI), as well as tax delinquency notices related to ICMS and contributions to the INSS, which are described as follows:

The subsidiary Usina da Barra has several indemnification suits filed against the Federal Government. The suits relate to product prices that did not conform to the reality of the market, which were mandatorily established at the time the sector was under the Government’s control.

In connection with one of these suits, a final and unappealable decision in the amount of US$149,121 was rendered in September 2006 in favor of Usina de Barra. This has been recorded as a non-current receivable on the balance sheet. In connection with the settlement process, the form of payment is being determined.

The Company is expecting to finalize the payment terms within three years which will result in the amount being received over a ten year period. The amount is subject to interest and inflation adjustment by an official index. Lawyers fees in the amount of US$18,783 relating to this suit have been recorded.  These fees remain unpaid at January 31, 2009.

At January 31, 2009, these amounts totaled US$147,742 and US$17,729 (US$202,822 and US$24,339 at April 30, 2008), corresponding to related suit and lawyers’ fees, respectively.

Income taxes

As mentioned in Note 1, the company is an exempted company located in Bermuda.  Nevertheless, the Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the Brazilian federal jurisdiction. These subsidiaries are no longer subject to Brazilian federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before December 31, 2002. Additionally, Cosan S.A. has not been under a Brazilian Internal Revenue Service (IRS) income tax examination for 2003 through 2007.

Effective May 1, 2007, Cosan S.A. adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in financial statements and prescribes a threshold of more-likely-than-not for recognition of tax benefits of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides related guidance on measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, and disclosure. Also, FIN 48 excludes income taxes from the scope of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.

Prior to the adoption of FIN 48, Cosan S.A. recognized tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only if it was probable that the positions would be sustained. There was no retained earnings impact upon adoption of FIN 48 as no additional tax position met the recognition threshold under FIN 48.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

Balance at May 1, 2008
    23,656  
Increase through business acquisition
    67,542  
Accrued interest on unrecognized tax benefit
    1,695  
Accrued unrecognized tax benefit
    197  
Settlement
    (47 )
Effect of foreign currency translation
    (5,933 )
Balance at January 31, 2009
    87,110  

It is possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next twelve months, however, an estimate of the range of the possible change cannot be made at this time due to the long time to reach a settlement agreement or decision with the taxing authorities.

The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.

Deferred gain on sale of investments in subsidiaries

Agrícola Ponte Alta S.A. is a subsidiary whose principal assets are land used for the growing of sugarcane for Cosan. On December 15, 2008, the shareholders approved a partial spin-off of the assets of Ponte Alta and created four new subsidiaries.  Agricultural land was then transferred from Ponte Alta to each of the entities. On December 30, 2008, two of the entities, Nova Agrícola Ponte Alta S.A. and Terras da Ponte Alta S.A. were sold to Radar, an affiliate company accounted for by the equity method. The selling price was fair value, US$123,596, which resulted in a gain of US$47,080. The two entities hold land that is being used by the Company at the transaction date, but lease agreements relating to the use of the land by Cosan have not been executed. As Cosan has the rights over the sugarcane planted on these lands, the gain has been deferred and classified as other long-term debt. This gain will be amortized to profit and loss over the lease term of leases for the use of the land commencing with the execution of the leases.


12.
Fair value measurements

Effective May 1, 2008, Cosan adopted SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements, for all financial instruments and non-financial instruments accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. SFAS 157 establishes a new framework for measuring fair value and expands related disclosures. Broadly, the SFAS 157 framework requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. SFAS 157 establishes market or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by assumptions based on hypothetical transactions in the absence of market inputs.

The valuation techniques required by SFAS 157 are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Fair value measurements (Continued)

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3 - Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

The following section describes the valuation methodologies Cosan uses to measure different financial instruments at fair value.
 
Marketable securities
 
When quoted market prices are unobservable, we use other relevant information including market interest rate curves. These investments are included in Level 2 and primarily comprise fixed-income securities, which are debt securities issued by highly rated financial institutions indexed in reais with Inter Deposit Rates (CDI).

Derivatives
 
We use closing prices for derivatives included in Level 1, which are traded either on exchanges or liquid over-the-counter markets.
 
The remainder of the derivatives portfolio is valued using internal models, most of which are primarily based on market observable inputs including interest rate curves and both forward and spot prices for currencies and commodities. Derivative assets and liabilities included in Level 2 primarily represent interest rate swaps and foreign currency swaps and commodity forward contracts.

The following table presents our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at January 31, 2009.

Share-based compensation

In the ordinary and extraordinary general meeting held on August 30, 2005, the guidelines for the outlining and structuring of a stock option plan for Cosan S.A. officers and employees were approved, thus authorizing the issue of up to 5% of shares comprising Cosan S.A.’s share capital. This stock option plan was outlined to attract and retain services rendered by officers and key employees, offering them the opportunity to become shareholders of Cosan S.A. On September 22, 2005, Cosan S.A.’s board of directors approved the distribution of stock options corresponding to 4,302,780 common shares to be issued or purchased by Cosan S.A. related to 3.25% of the share capital at the time, authorized by the annual/extraordinary meeting. The remaining 1.75% remains to be distributed. On September 22, 2005, the officers and key employees were informed regarding the key terms and conditions of the share-based compensation arrangement.

According to the market value on the date of issuance, the exercise price is US$3.90 (three dollars and sixty two cents) per share which does not include any discount. The exercise price was calculated before the valuation mentioned above based on an expected private equity deal which did not occur. Options may be exercised after a one-year vesting period starting November 18, 2005, at the maximum percentage of 25% per year of the total stock options offered by Cosan S.A. The options for each 25% have a five-year period to be exercised.

On September 11, 2007, the board of directors approved an additional distribution of stock options, in connection with the stock option plan mentioned above, corresponding to 450,000 common shares to be issued or purchased by Cosan S.A. related to 0.24% of the share capital at September 22, 2005. The remaining 1.51% may still be distributed.

The exercise of options may be settled only through issuance of new common shares or treasury shares.

The employees that leave Cosan S.A. before the vesting period will forfeit 100% of their rights. However, if the employment is terminated by Cosan S.A. without cause, the employees will have right to exercise 100% of their options of that particular year plus the right to exercise 50% of the options of the following year.

Share-based compensation (Continued)

The fair value of share-based awards was estimated using a binominal model with the following assumptions:

   
Options granted on September 22, 2005
   
Options granted on September 11, 2007
 
Grant price - in U.S. dollars
    2.64       2.64

    7.5       7.5  
Interest rate
    14.52 %     9.34 %
Volatility
    34.00 %     46.45 %
Dividend yield
    1.25 %     1.47 %
Weighted-average fair value at grant date - in U.S. dollars
    5.33       7.85  

As of January 31, 2009 the amount of US$5,423 related to the unrecognized stock option compensation cost is expected to be recognized in 2 years. Cosan S.A. currently has 343,139 common shares in treasury.

As of January 31, 2009 there were 2,373,341 options outstanding with a weighted-average exercise price of US$2.64.

Segment information

a. Segment information

The following information about segments is based upon information used by Cosan’s senior management to assess the performance of operating segments and decide on the allocation of resources. Cosan’s reportable segments are business units in Brazil that target different industry segments. Each reportable segment is managed separately because of the need to specifically address customer needs in these different industries. Cosan has four segments: sugar, ethanol, fuel distribution and others group. The operations of these segments are based solely in Brazil.

The sugar segment mainly operates and produces a broad variety of sugar products, including raw (also known as very high polarization - VHP sugar), organic, crystal and refined sugars, and sells these products to a wide range of customers in Brazil and abroad. Cosan exports the majority of the sugar produced through international commodity trading companies. Cosan’s domestic customers include wholesale distributors, food manufacturers and retail supermarkets, through which it sells its “Da Barra” branded products.

Segment information (Continued)

a. Segment information (Continued)

The ethanol segment substantially produces and sells fuel ethanol, both hydrous and anhydrous (which has lower water content than hydrous ethanol) and industrial ethanol. Cosan’s principal ethanol product is fuel ethanol, which is used both as an automotive fuel and as an additive in gasoline, and is mainly sold in the domestic market by fuel distribution companies. Consumption of hydrous ethanol in Brazil is increasing as a result of the introduction of flex fuel vehicles that can run on either gasoline or ethanol (or a combination of both) to the Brazilian market in 2003. In addition, Cosan sells liquid and gel ethanol products used mainly in the production of paint and cosmetics and alcoholic beverages for industrial clients in various sectors.

With the acquisition of Cosan CL a new fuel distribution segment has been created. The fuel distribution segment is engaged in the distribution in Brazil of oil products, ethanol, lubricants and aviation fuel as well as the operation of convenience stores. The network to which fuel distribution segment distribute such products is comprised of more than 1,500 service stations.

The accounting policies underlying the financial information provided for the segments are based on Brazilian GAAP as Cosan is the operating subsidiary. We evaluate segment performance based on information generated from the statutory accounting records.

Others segment is comprised by selling cogeneration of electricity, diesel and corporate activities.

No asset information is provided by reportable segment due to the fact that the majority of the assets used in production of sugar an ethanol are the same.

Measurement of segment profit or loss and segment assets

Cosan S.A. evaluates performance and allocates resources based on return on capital and profitable growth. The primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of Cosan S.A. is adjusted EBIT (earnings before interests and taxes excluding special items such as impairment and restructuring, integration costs, one-time gains or losses on sales of assets, acquisition, and other items similar in nature). The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

Special review report of independent auditors


The Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio

1.
We have performed a special review of the accompanying Quarterly Financial Information of Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio (parent company and consolidated) for the quarter and nine-month periods ended January 31, 2009, including the balance sheets, statements of operations, cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity, report on the Company’s performance and explanatory notes, prepared under the management’s responsibility.

2.
Our review was conducted in accordance with the specific procedures determined by the Brazilian Institute of Independent Auditors (IBRACON) and the Federal Board of Accountancy (CFC), which comprised principally: (a) inquiries of and discussions with the management responsible for the Company’s accounting, financial and operational areas about the criteria adopted for the preparation of the Quarterly Financial Information; and (b) review of information and subsequent events which have, or could have, significant effects on the Company’s operations and financial position.

3.
Based on our special review, we are not aware of any material modification that should be made to the Quarterly Financial Information referred to above for it to comply with specific standards established by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Financial Information, including CVM Ruling No. 469/08.


1


 
4.
As mentioned in Note 2, Law No. 11638 enacted on December 28, 2007 became effective on January 1, 2008. This Law has modified, revoked and introduced new rules to Law No. 6404/76 (Corporation Law), which resulted in changes in accounting practices adopted in Brazil. While such law has already taken effect, some changes depend on standards to be set by regulators so that they can be applied by companies. Accordingly, in this transition phase, CVM Ruling No. 469/08 allowed non-application of the provisions of Law No. 11638/07 for preparation of Quarterly Financial Information (ITR). As a consequence, the accounting information contained in the Quarterly Financial Information (ITR) for the quarter and nine-month periods ended January 31, 2009 was prepared in accordance with specific CVM rulings and do not reflect all the changes in accounting practices introduced by Law No. 11638/07. As described in Note 2, the application of supplementary CVM rulings on the adoption of Law No. 11638/07 did not significantly affect the Company’s financial statements for the quarter ended January 31, 2009 or for any other prior periods presented.

5.
The balance sheets as of October 31, 2008 and notes thereto, presented for comparative purposes, were reviewed by us, and our special review report was issued on December 1, 2008. The statements of income and cash flows and notes thereto for the quarter and nine-month periods ended January 31, 2008, presented for comparative purposes, were reviewed by us, and our special review report issued on March 7, 2008 did not contain any qualification.

Operations

The primary activity of Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio (“Company” or “Cosan”), with principal place of business in the city of Piracicaba, São Paulo, and its subsidiaries is the manufacturing and trading of sugar, ethanol and co-generation of electricity from sugarcane both of their own plantations and third parties. The Company has 18 producing units, all located in the São Paulo State, with a nominal capacity of milling 45 million tons of sugarcane per year, producing varied qualities of raw and refined sugar, anhydrous and hydrated ethanol. The Company activities are still linked with those of its subsidiary Cosan Operadora Portuária S.A. and affiliate TEAS - Terminal Exportador de Álcool de Santos S.A., which consist mainly in the logistic support to export of sugar and ethanol by the Company.

The Company, through its subsidiary Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes S.A. (“Cosan CL”), currently named Esso Brasileira de Petróleo Ltda. (“Essobrás”), has recently expanded its business model and became the first integrated renewable energy company, acting from the plantation of sugar cane to the distribution and retail sale of fuels.

Cosan CL operates in 40 fuel distribution bases in Brazil and ranks as one of the four biggest fuel distributors in Brazil, with a distribution network of nearly 1,500 gas stations across Brazil, which sell 5 billion liters of fuels, 160 million cubic meters of NGV and 127 thousand cubic meters of lubricants.

Acquisition of majority shareholding in Esso Brasileira de Petróleo Ltda. (“Essobrás”)

As disclosed in the financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2008 and for the quarter ended October 31, 2008, Cosan executed a share purchase and sale agreement on April 23, 2008 with Exxon Mobil International Holdings BV, in order to acquire 100% of shares of Esso Brasileira de Petróleo Ltda. (“Essobrás”).

On December 1, 2008 the Company completed the acquisition of former Essobrás and its affiliates which hold assets for distribution and sale of fuels and production and sale of lubricants and specialties of ExxonMobil no Brasil, through the payment of R$1,672.445 made by the subsidiary Cosanpar Participações S.A. (“Cosanpar”) to ExxonMobil International Holdings B.V. for 100% of shares held by companies owning former Essobrás, at a goodwill of R$1,488,168. The details of this operation are described in Note 8.

Basis of preparation and presentation of the financial statements

The quarterly information is the responsibility of the Company’s management and was prepared according to the accounting practices adopted in Brazil, to the standards of the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM) and to the rules of the Sao Paulo Stock Exchange (BOVESPA) applicable to companies operating in the so-called “Novo Mercado”, not including all disclosures usually necessary in annual financial statements or those required by the accounting practices adopted in Brazil for complete financial statements.

The preparation of quarterly information involves the use of accounting estimates. Such estimates were based on objective and subjective aspects considering management’s judgment to determine the adequate amount to be recorded in the quarterly information. Significant items subject to these estimates and assumptions include the selection of useful lives of fixed assets and their recovery in operations, risk credit analysis to determine the allowance for doubtful accounts, and the analyses of other risks to determine other provisions, including the provision for contingencies, and the valuation of financial instruments and other assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date.

Actual results may significantly differ from these estimates once the underlying transactions are settled due to the underlying inaccuracy of the determination process. The Company reviews its estimates and assumptions at least on a quarterly basis.

Assets and liabilities are classified as current when these items are likely to be settled or realized within 12 months, or otherwise classified as noncurrent. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies were translated into reais at the foreign exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Foreign currency translation gains and losses are recognized in the statements of income. Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries were translated into reais at the foreign exchange rate in force at the balance sheet date and the results of operations were translated at the average exchange rate for the period.

Throughout 2008 to actual date CVM has issued Resolutions No. 534, No. 547, No. 553, No. 554, No. 555, No. 556 and No. 557, which approved CPC 02 – Effects of changes in foreign exchange rates and translation of financial statements, CPC 03 – Statement of cash flows, CPC 04 – Intangible assets, CPC 06 – Leasing operations, CPC 07 – Government subsidies and incentives, CPC 08 – Transaction costs and security issue premium and CPC 09 – Statement of value added, respectively. The Company is evaluating the effects from adoption of these accounting standards on its financial position until year end.

Company excluded from consolidation

As disclosed in the Quarterly Financial Information for the period ended October 31, 2008, the company Radar Propriedades Agrícolas S.A. (“Radar”), formed on August 28, 2008, in which Cosan hold an equity interest of 18.92%, was considered a subsidiary. On that date, Cosan completed the full consolidation of Radar’s balances.

On January 31, 2009, Company management revised the contracts between the companies and the performance of the members of the Board of Directors, concluding that Cosan actually did not hold any majority equity interest in that company, in light of the decisions made during the current quarter.

Based on CVM Resolution No. 506, of June 19, 2006, the Company considered that the consolidated Quarterly Information at October 31, 2008, presented for comparison purposes, should be restated due to an error back to the present period.

Accordingly, the consolidated balances as of October 31, 2008, presented for comparison purposes, are being presented without including Radar’s balances, as if this consolidation had not taken place at that date.

Changes in preparation and reporting of financial statements

On December 28, 2007, Law No. 11638 (the “Law”) was approved by the President of Brazil. This law makes amendments and revokes provisions of Brazil’s Corporation Law. These changes introduced by such law are primarily aimed towards full convergence between accounting practices adopted in Brazil and international financial reporting standards (IFRS).

On May 2, 2008, the CVM issued Ruling No. 469 (“Ruling”) which partially disciplined the Law, establishing minimum requirements to be followed for presentation of quarterly financial statements. This Ruling, under certain conditions, made it optional to fully adopt the provisions of the Law. Company management did not opt for this alternative, and accordingly, adopted the Law in accordance with the provisions required by such Ruling for presenting its quarterly information.

Among significant changes to the accounting standards, we single out below only those which, in a preliminary analysis by Company management, may affect the financial statements of the Company and of its subsidiaries:

 
·
Compensation based on executive and employee stock purchase options. The Company disclosed in Note 21, the terms of its Stock Purchase Option Plan and possible accounting effects existing as of the date of the quarterly information;

 
·
The concept of discount to present value is now applied to long-term assets and liabilities, as well as to short-term assets and liabilities having a significant effect on financial reporting. The Company did not identify any operations that could have significant effects on the quarterly information for the periods reported as far as discount to present value is concerned;

 
·
The balances of the revaluation reserve, as determined by CVM Ruling No. 469. may be maintained through their effective realization date or reserved. The Company decided to present to the Board the whole revaluation reserve reverse in the amount as shown on Notes 9 and 15;

Changes in preparation and reporting of financial statements (Continued)

 
·
Requirements that investments in financial instruments, including derivatives, should be recorded: (i) at their market or equivalent value, whenever it involves investments for trading or available to sale; and (ii) at the acquisition cost or issue value, updated in accordance with the legal or contractual provisions, adjusted to the probable realizable value, whenever it is lower. The Company and its subsidiaries will apply these changes when a specific standard is issued on the matter. At present, for disclosure purposes only, the Company records its derivative financial instruments at market, as set out in Note 18; and.

 
·
Inclusion of the Statement of Value Added (SVA) in the set of financial statements. Company management will present this statement when preparing its annual financial statements as of March 31, 2009.

Given that these changes have recently taken effect and that some of these changes depend on standards to be set by regulators so that they can be fully applied.


3.
Summary of significant accounting practices

The accounting practices adopted to prepare the quarterly financial information are consistent with those reported in the financial statements as of April 30, 2008, other than the provisions introduced in quarterly financial information by CVM Ruling No. 469/08.

The purchase and sale transactions are carried out at prices and under conditions similar to those existing in the market.

Amounts receivable from Barra refer, basically, to advances for future deliveries of sugar. Such amounts accrue 100% of CDI interest. On January 31, 2009 the amount of R$1,396,202 was fully transferred to investments under non-current assets.

The balance receivable from the affiliate Vertical UK LLP, located in British Virgin Islands, refers to ethanol trading, whose its receivable maturity date is 30 days.

The balance receivable from Santa Bárbara Agrícola S.A., a company under the same equity control of Cosan’s, consists of the sale of real estate for R$32,337, to be received on February 27 and March 31, 2009.

The balance receivable from Cosanpar consists mainly of the payment of expenses incurred during the transition period for the acquisition of Essobrás, currently named Cosan CL, for future capital contributions, without any interest thereon.

The balance payable to Cosan Finance Limited refers to export prepayment loan agreements to be settled in 2014, 2015 and 2016, which are subject to the US dollar exchange variation and Libor annual interest rate, plus spread from 4.75% to 4.85% per year.

The payable to Cosan Limited consists of the repurchase of notes by Cosan CL., equivalent to US$175,000, to fall due in 2018. These notes consisted of Floating Rate Notes issued in 1999 managed by agent ExxonMobil Capital BV. Such balance bears variable interest equivalent to the Libor rate plus interest of 2.8% p.a., quarterly paid.

At January 31, 2009, the Company and its subsidiary Usina da Barra were lessees of 37,635 hectares of land (37,214 hectares in 2008) (not reviewed by the independent auditors) of related companies under the same control as Cosan. The amount paid by the Company and its subsidiary to the lessors in the nine-month period ended January 31, 2009 totaled R$17,893 (R$13,024 in 2008). These operations are carried out under conditions and prices similar to those prevailing in the market, calculated based on sugarcane tons per hectare, valued in accordance with the price established by CONSECANA.

The consolidated balance of construction in progress and advances for fixed asset purchases corresponds, substantially, to investments in co-generation capacity, upgrading and expansion of industrial plants, expanding warehousing capacity, and advances for machinery and equipment purchases by electric power co-generation plants.

On January 31, 2009, consolidated property, plant and equipment included the amount of R$240,959 (R$415,260 at October 31, 2008) corresponding to the net revaluation balance. As mentioned in Notes 8 and 15, the Company partially realized the balances of revalued assets in connection with its sale.

Tax Recovery Program - REFIS

In 2000, several subsidiaries applied to pay their tax payables in installments based on the Tax Recovery Program - REFIS, approved by Law No. 9964, of April 10, 2000. Therefore, the companies voluntarily informed the Brazilian Internal Revenue Service - SRF and the National Institute of Social Security - INSS of their tax and social contribution obligations. Property, plant and equipment of the companies were offered as security in the debt consolidation process.

Under the REFIS, tax payments are made based on 1.2% of the taxpayer’s monthly gross revenue. The remaining balance is monetarily adjusted based on the TJLP variation.

Resolution No. 2471

From 1998 to 2000, the Company and its subsidiaries renegotiated their debt related to agricultural funding with several financial institutions, thereby reducing their financial cost to annual interest rates below 10% and guaranteeing the amortization of the updated principal amount with the assignment and transfer of CTNs - Restricted Brazilian Treasury Bills redeemable on the debt maturity dates, using the tax incentive introduced by Resolution No. 2471, issued by the Central Bank of Brazil on February 26, 1998. On January 31, 2009, these certificates, classified as noncurrent assets, amounted to R$26,989 (R$26,283 at October 31. 2008), at the Company and R$175,511 (R$170,879 at October 31, 2008) at consolidated. Payments pursuant to such certificates are calculated based on the IGP-M variation plus annual interest of 12%. Upon payment of the debt, the redemption value should be similar to the amount of the renegotiated debt. Interest referring to these financings is paid annually and principal is to be entirely settled in 2020 at the Company, and 2025 at consolidated.

Senior Notes due in 2017

Perpetual notes are listed in the Luxemburg Stock Exchange - EURO MTF and bear interest of 8.25% per year, payable quarterly on the 15th of May, August, November and February of each year, beginning May 15, 2006.

The promissory notes are secured by: (i) aval guarantee of Mr. Rubens Ometto Silveira Mello; and (ii) chattel mortgage of shares of Cosan CL (current name of Essobrás).

Restrictive covenants in the loan and financing agreements

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictive covenants contained in loan and financing agreements, the most significant being: (i) limitation of transactions with shareholders and affiliates; (ii) limitation in payment of dividends and other payment restrictions which affect subsidiaries; and (iii) limitation of concession of warranty on assets.

Also, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictive covenants concerning financial indexes, determined during 2005, the most significant being as follows: (i) limitation of indebtedness by complying with the net debt ratio/EBITDA lower than 3.5 to 1; and (ii) limitation of indebtedness by complying with current assets/current liabilities ratio equal or greater than 1.3.

In connection with the various capital reorganizations occurred after the definition of such clauses, Company management has been revising and negotiating the change of such ratios with the financial institutions.

i)
IPI Premium Credit - BEFIEX

The subsidiary Usina da Barra has been challenging in court tax credits previously unused of approximately R$305,435 (R$301,574 at October 31, 2008), related to IPI premium credit (Decree Law No. 491. dated March 5. 1969), levied on exports made under the Special Export Program – BEFIEX, calculated for the period from May 1992 to December 2006. The subsidiary’s legal advisors believe that there are good chances of a favorable outcome in this case. These credits were neither recorded by the Company nor used to offset against other tax liabilities.

ii)
Accounts receivable from Federal Government

The subsidiary Usina da Barra has several indemnification suits filed against the Federal Government. Since, at the time the sector was under the Government’s control, the product prices were mandatorily established at levels that did not conform to the reality of the sector.

The indemnification suits are still being challenged in court and, as such, were not recorded in the subsidiary’s financial statements as of April 30, 2007. However, on February 28, 2007, the subsidiary recognized a gain in the statement of operations for the period, in the amount of R$318.358, corresponding to one of the above-mentioned suits, for which a final and unappealable decision was rendered in favor of subsidiary. Since the recorded amount is substantially composed of interest and monetary restatement, it was recognized under Financial income (expenses), net, against the Accounts receivable from Federal Government, under noncurrent assets. The Company is expecting a final decision regarding the form of payment, which should take place by means of securities issued in connection with public debts, to be received in 10 years, after the final decision is handed down for the enforcement proceeding. The Company, based on the opinion of its legal advisors, estimates that the discussion on the enforcement proceeding will be concluded in three years. The amounts are likely to be monetarily restated by the inflation rate IPCA-E.

The lawyers’ fees referring to this suit was recognized in General and administrative expenses, in the amount of R$38.203, against the account Other liabilities, under noncurrent liabilities.

At January 31, 2009, these amounts totaled R$342,201 and R$41,064, corresponding to related suit and lawyers’ fees, respectively.

Revaluation reserve

On November 20, 2008 the indirect subsidiary Agrícola Ponte Alta S.A. reversed the revaluation of its land for R$71,998, which resulted in a corresponding effect in the Company amounting to R$37,769.

Financial instruments

a)
Risk management

The Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to market risks, the main being: (i) sugar price volatility, and (ii) foreign exchange rate. In order to manage these market risks, the Company uses policies and procedures approved by the Board of Directors through its Risk Committee. Such documents establish limits, ongoing monitoring of exposures, counterparties and financial instruments approved for trading. Risk and financial instrument management activities are carried out through definition of strategies, establishment of control systems and determination of limits of exposure to foreign exchange rate, interest rate and prices. Financial instruments are contracted exclusively in positions opposite to the Company’s natural exposure arising from its sugar and ethanol sales. The Company does not recognize in the balance sheet the fair value of derivative financial instruments.

On January 31, 2009 and October 31, 2008, assets and liabilities balances related to derivative financial instruments transactions are as follows:

Foreign exchange risk (Continued)

The Company has derivatives in order to mitigate its exposure to the effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on its revenue from exports. The exchange rate derivatives together with the commodity price derivatives allow ensuring minimum average profit from future production. The Company actively manages contracted positions, and the result of such activities is monitored daily. through effective mark-to-market controls and price impact simulations in order to allow adjusting targets and strategies due to changes in market conditions. The fair value of these derivatives was measured based on estimates that use discounted cash flows based on market curves.

At January 31, 2009, the Company had US$539,419 thousand (US$694,583 thousand at October 31, 2008) hedged by future and forward contracts sold traded in BM&F Bovespa and OTC, with a negative adjustment to market value estimated at R$174,386 (negative adjustment of R$196,467 at October 31, 2008), not recorded.

The Company estimates that its annual revenues from export, in light of its current installed capacity and expected prices of sugar and ethanol, according to its internal budget, is US$1,200,000 thousand. As a consequence, the Company estimates to have, at January 31, 2009, 5.39 months of its billings from future exports at exchange rate hedged by derivative financial instruments.

Finally, the Company is a party to a currency and interest rate swap contract originally established for the interest flow of issuance of Senior Notes 2009 (Note 13), in the original amount of US$200,000 thousand, R$570,700 on the date the contract is executed. Under swap, the Company took an asset position of 9% p.a. on US$200,000 thousand, and a liability position of 81% of the change in CDI on R$570,700. The market value of this swap at January 31, 2009 is negative by R$8,275 (negative by R$33,198 at October 31, 2008), not accounted for. The curve value of this swap at January 31, 2009, accounted for under loans and financing (Note 13) is R$4,139 (R$9,910 at October 31, 2008).

The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge foreign exchange exposure from balance sheet. At January 31, 2009 and October 31, 2008, the Company and its subsidiaries presented the following net balance sheet exposure to US dollar:

e)
Credit risk

A significant portion of sales made is by the Company and its subsidiaries to a selected group of best-in-class counterparts, i.e. trading companies, fuel distribution companies and large supermarket chains. Credit risk is managed through specific rules of client acceptance, credit rating and setting of limits for customer exposure, including the requirement of a letter of credit from major banks. The Company and its subsidiaries historically have not recorded material losses on trade accounts receivable.

 
f)
Debt acceleration risk

As of January 31, 2009, the Company was a party to loan and financing agreements with covenants generally applicable to these operations, including requirements related to cash generation, debt to equity ratio and others. These covenants are being fully complied with by the Company and do not place any restrictions on its operations.

g)
Market values

As of January 31, 2009 and October 31, 2008, the fair values of cash, marketable securities and trade accounts receivable and payable approximate the respective amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements, due to their short-term nature.

The fair value of the Senior Notes maturing in 2017, as described in Note 13, according to their market value, was 73.1250% of their face value at January 31, 2009.

The fair value of Perpetual Notes as described in Note 13, according to its market value, was 59.1134% of its face value at January 31, 2009.

As for the other loan and financing arrangements, their respective fair values substantially approximate the amounts recorded in the financial statements considering that such instruments are subject to variable interest rates.

Sensitivity analysis

Pursuant to CVM Rule Nº 475 issued on December 17, 2008, following is the sensitivity analysis of the fair value of financial instruments, in accordance with the types of risks deemed to be significant by the Company:

Assumptions for the Sensitivity Analysis

For the analysis, the Company adopted three scenarios, being one probable and two that may have effects from impairment of the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments. Impacts on operations were not considered, but only on the variable that impacts the value of derivative financial instruments.

The definition of the probable scenario included the market data at January 31, 2008, the same one which determine the fair value of the derivatives at that date and therefore there are no differences in relation to the fair value of the derivative financial instruments. The possible adverse and remote scenarios were established in view of adverse impacts of 25% and 50% on the curves in the prices of the U.S. dollar and sugar:

(1)  The sensitivity on sugar exports reflects the 25% and 50% increase scenarios (versus the scenarios for reduction in the underlying derivative financial instruments) on the price of sugar in relation to the volume of sugar equivalent to notional in derivative financial instruments contracted in order to hedge the Company against such variations.

(2)  The sensitivity on exports reflects the 25% and 50% increase scenarios (versus the scenarios for reduction in the underlying derivative financial instruments) on the R$ : US$ exchange rate  in the future in relation to the volume of U.S. dollars equivalent to notional in derivative financial instruments contracted in order to hedge the Company against such variations.

(3)  Net exchange rate exposure for R$2,558,085, equivalent to US$1,104,433 thousand. The probable scenario considers the weighted average U.S. dollar rate for the day announced by the Central Bank of Brazil (ptax) on January 31, 2009.

Insurance (Not reviewed by the independent auditors)

At January 31, 2009, the Company and its subsidiaries maintain insurance coverage against fire, thunderbolts and explosions of any nature for the whole sugar and ethanol inventory and for buildings, equipment and installations at plants.

The Company does not foresee any difficulties to renew its insurance policies and believes that the coverage established is reasonable in terms of amounts and consistent with Brazilian industry standards.


20.  Actuarial liabilities

The retirement plan in connection with the acquisition of Essobrás on December 1, 2008 has been organized as "Definite Benefit" and is fully funded by its sponsor, currently named Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes S.A..

At January 31, 2009 this pension plan had net actuarial liabilities amounting to R$58,467, recorded as Other Obligations under Non-current Liabilities.


21.
Stock option plan

At the Annual and Extraordinary General Meeting held on August 30, 2005, the Guidelines for the Outlining and Structuring of a Stock Option Plan for Company’s officers and employees were approved, thus authorizing the issue of up to 5% of the Company’s share capital. The stock option plan was designed to obtain and retain the services rendered by senior officers and employees, offering them the opportunity to become shareholders of the Company. On September 22, 2005, the Board of Directors approved the distribution of stock options corresponding to 4.302.780 common shares to be issued or purchased by the Company related to 3.25% of the share capital at the time, authorized by the Annual/Extraordinary General Meeting. On that same date, eligible officers were informed of the material terms and conditions of the share-based compensation agreement. On September 11, 2007, the Board of Directors approved the distribution of stock options, corresponding to 450,000 common shares to be issued or purchased by the Company related to 0.24% of the share capital at the time, authorized by the Annual/Extraordinary General Meeting. On that same date, the eligible officer was informed of the material terms and conditions of the share-based compensation agreement. The remaining 1.51% may still be distributed.

Stock option plan (Continued)

Based on the fair value at the issue date, exercise price is R$6.11 (six reais and eleven cents) per share, without discount. The exercise price was calculated before the above evaluation based on an expected private equity agreement based on that eventually was not made. The options are exercisable over a 3-year period, considering a maximum percentage of 25% p.a. of total stock options offered by the Company, within a period of 5 years.

The options exercised shall be settled only upon issue of new common or treasury shares that the Company may have at each relevant date.

Should any holder of stock options cease to be an employee or manager of the Company, by death, retirement or permanent disability of the beneficiary, any options not previously vesting shall become extinct on the date that employee or officer separates from the Company. However, in the case of termination without good cause, the terminated employees shall be entitled to exercise 100% of their options referring to that particular year, on top of exercising 50% of their options in the coming year.

Stock option activity as of January 31, 2009 and October 31, 2008 is 2,373,341 common shares.

All exercised stock options had been settled with issue of new common shares up to January 31, 2009. Should the remaining options be also exercised with issue of new common shares, present shareholders would have their shareholding interest reduced by 0.8633% after the exercise of all remaining options, without any effect on the Company results.

The accounting practices adopted in Brazil do not require the recognition of expenses on compensation through stock option plan. Had the Company recorded in the statement of operations such expenses based on the amount estimated on a binomial model, loss for the nine-month period ended January 31, 2009 would increase by R$10,939 and net loss for the nine-month period ended January 31, 2008 would increase by R$10,188. Under this accounting hypothesis, at January 31, 2009 it would be expected that R$12,561 consisting of the unrecognized compensation cost of stock option plan was recognized within two years (R$22,809 at January 31, 2008 over a two-year term).

As commented on in Note 2, the Company will apply all standards issued by CPC and approved by CVM at the year ended March 31, 2009.

Stock option plan (Continued)

The fair value of the options granted under the stock option plan was estimated from the binominal model, with the following assumptions:

   
Options granted on September 22. 2005
   
Options granted on September 11. 2007
 
Grant price – R$
    6.11       6.11  
Expected exercise (in years)
    7.5       7.5  
Interest rate
    14.52 %     9.34 %
Volatility
    34.00 %     46.45 %
Dividend yield
    1.25 %     1.47 %
Weighted average fair value at grant date – R$
    12.35       18.19  

Expected Term - Cosan’s expected term represents the period that Cosan’s share-based awards are expected to be outstanding and was determined based on the assumption that the officers will exercise their options when the exercise period is over. Therefore, this term was calculated based on the average of 5 and 10 years, Cosan does not expect any forfeiture as those options are mainly for officers, for whom turnover is low.

Expected Volatility – The Company has opted to substitute the historical volatility by an appropriate global industry sector index, based on the volatility of the share prices, and considering it as an assumption in its valuation model. Cosan has identified and compared similar public entities for which share or option price information is available to consider the historical. Expected, or implied volatility of those entities’ share prices in estimating expected volatility based on global scenarios.

Expected Dividends – As the Company is newly public entity, the expected dividend yield was calculated based on the current value of the stock market at grant date, adjusted by the average rate of the return to shareholders for the expected term, in relation of future book value of the shares.

Risk-Free Interest Rate – The Company considers the SELIC (Special System Settlement Custody) rate.

3rd Quarter of Fiscal Year 2009 November, December and January
 
 
Endorsing the tendency begun last quarter, Cosan Limited posts record EBITDA
     
§
This section provides a summary of the quarterly performance of Cosan Ltd. (NYSE: CZZ), the parent company of the Cosan Group. The financial information in this section is therefore expressed in U.S. dollars and in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
   
§
The operations of Esso, now renamed Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes (CCL) were consolidated in the 3Q09. For comparative purposes, Cosan’s operations until the date of the Esso acquisition, which comprise the production and sale of sugar, ethanol and electric power, are grouped under Cosan Sugar e Álcool (CAA).
   
§
Thanks to two months of CCL’s results and the impact of the devaluation of the Real on exports, Cosan closed the 3Q’09 with a significant inmprovement in its operating results: (i) net operating revenue moved up 2.9 times to US$1,103.4 million; (ii) gross profit increased 4.6 times and the gross margin widened from 8.8% to 13.9%; (iii) the 3Q’08 operating loss was turned into operating income of US$43.2 million, with a margin of 3.9%; and (iv) EBITDA totaled US$92.2 million 7.8 times higher than the 3Q’08, equivalent to 97.8% of FY’08 EBITDA. It is also worth noting that the EBITDA margin increased from 3.1% to 8.4%, even after consolidating the EBITDA of CCL, whose margins are compatible with the fuel distribution segment, i.e. much lower than those of sugar and ethanol production.

EBITDAH of R$359.5 million is Cosan’s best ever quarterly result
   
§
Having consolidated two months of the results generated by Esso, now Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes S.A. (CCL), and benefiting from the impact of the devaluation of the Real on its exports, Cosan S.A. (BOVESPA: CSAN3) closed the 3Q’09 with EBITDAH of R$359.5 million, an all-time quarterly record, giving a YTD’09 figure of R$608.7 million, already 53% up on the FY’08 total.
   
§
The healthy operating result was sufficient to absorb interest expenses and expenses from depreciation, goodwill amortizations and the exchange variation on dollar-denominated debt. As a result, Cosan reversed the 3Q’08 net loss, closing the 3Q’09 wiith net income of R$5.2 million.
 
§
The 2008/09 harvest came to an end in December and Cosan also established a new crushing record, having processed 44.2 million tonnes of sugarcane, producing 1,715.8 million liters of ethanol and 3,267.7 thousand tonnes of sugar.

§
The Company invested R$426.9 million in fixed assets in the 3Q’09, R$166.3 million of which in the Jataí greenfield project in Goiás, which will begin production in the upcoming harvest. The ongoing co-generation projects, which are already contributing to  revenue, absorbed R$103.5 million.
     
 
§
Cosan closed the 3Q’09 with net debt of R$3,521.1 million, inflated by the R$1.1 billion issue of promissory notes used to finance the acquisition of CCL and the consolidation of US$175.0 million in existing floating rate notes into its balance sheet. This debt corresponds to 4.2 times EBITDA in the 12 months ended January 31, 2009, including 12 months of CCL’s results.

A. Market Overview
     
 
§
According to the latest figures from UNICA, the sugarcane growers’ association, crushed cane volume in Brazil’s Central-South totaled 499.6 million tonnes through January 15, 15.88% more than last year’s total harvest. This figure benefited from the 46 plants still in operation, which crushed 2.34 million tonnes in the first fortnight of the year. Around 10 of these units intend to keep crushing until the beginning of the next harvest. Sugar production in the period amounted to 26.75 million tonnes, 2.11% up on the 2007/08 crop, while ethanol output climbed 22.59% to 24.79 billion liters. Of this total, hydrous accounted for 16.2 billion liters, 23.81% up year-on-year, and anhydrous for 8.59 billion liters, up by 20.36%. The hefty ethanol upturn was due to the production bias towards this product, which accounted for 60.26% of total cane TSR (sucrose content). Brazil’s capacity to alter its production mix at will has been diminishing, since recent investments have been concentrated in boosting ethanol output. Until the first fortnight of January, plants producing ethanol only were responsible for 13% of total crushed cane and production of 5.31 billion liters of ethanol.
     
 
§
The Northeast harvest is nearing its end, with estimated production of 3.65 million tonnes of sugar and 1.96 billion liters of ethanol through the end of January, 4.3% down and 18% up, respectively, on the same period last year. Ethanol’s share of cane output increased, rising from 40% of the total, in 2007/08, to 45%, and yield increased by 1%.
     
 
§
The global sugar supply and demand ratio is still favoring prices, given prospects of a 2009/10 deficit that may exceed 10 million tonnes, according to some market estimates. While there are no signs of significant reductions in demand, supply has fallen dramatically.
     
Loosening of Indian import restrictions paves the way for Brazilian exports
§
As India’s harvest has moved ahead, sugar output estimates have been frequently revised downwards due to the reduction in planted area, lower yield and less sucrose recovery. The latest news points to production of between 16 and 17 million tonnes, almost 10 million less than the previous (record) harvest. As a result, the Indian government decided to ease its import restrictions in order to put a brake on domestic sugar prices, which reached INR 2,115/100kg (equivalent to ¢US$19,6/lb) at the close of January, 20.4% up on the end-of-October figure. In February, the government approved a tonne-for-tonne policy, allowing local plants to import raw sugar, with a commitment to export a similar volume of refined sugar in up to 24 months. Taking advantage of this new policy, Brazil had already shipped 800,000 tonnes to India until February.
     
 
§
Production in some other Asian countries also looks set to fall thanks to poor weather and two years of low returns. In Australia, where many plants have closed in the last few years, the recent rains have further reduced production. China was hit by frost at the beginning of 2008 and by reduced fertilizer use, while in Pakistan, the reduction in planted area was aggravated by lower yield, as in India.

§
International raw sugar prices averaged ¢US$11.79/lb in the 3Q’09, 6% down on the previous quarter and 10.1% up on the ¢US$10.68/lb recorded in the 3Q’08. On the other hand, the hefty devaluation of the Real continued throughout the quarter, more than offsetting the international price slide. Raw sugar prices in Reais closed the 3Q’09 at ¢R$29.35/lb, 15.4% up on the 2Q08 and 34.9% more than the 3Q’08 figure of ¢R$21.76/lb.
     
   
     
Funds rebuild sugar market positions thanks to the sector’s sound fundamentals
§
In November and December, major hedge funds, plus smaller funds and speculators, maintained the previous quarters’ trend, reducing their net long positions from 87,000 lots at the close of October to 77,000 at the end of December, as result of increased redemptions by fund shareholders. As of January, however, these positions began to build up again, reaching 140,000 lots and 21% of total open contracts, evidence of investor confidence in the sector’s sound fundamentals. It is worth remembering that index funds sold around 40,000 lots in January, but with no undue impact on prices given that this reordering was carried out in a gradual manner and had already been built into prices by the market.

Recovery of international market prices
§
International refined sugar prices have been reacting to the initial decline triggered by the flight from commodities to more conservative positions, sustained by the sector’s solid fundamentals. Prices closed January at US$373.5/t, with an upward bias. In the 3Q’09, they averaged US$328.3/t, 11.1% down on the previous quarter and 6.8% up year-on-year. The white premium closed the quarter at US$94.17/t, 36.1% up on the 2Q09, reflecting the reduction in refined sugar supply due to: (i) the transition of India and the EU from major exporters to possible importers; and (ii) the reduction in shipments from Brazil following the massive exports at the beginning of the current harvest.
     
§
Export demand remained strong, thanks to low freight costs and reduced physical discounts. Between May/08 and February/09, Brazil shipped 18.5 million tonnes abroad, 12.6% up on the same period last year. In the 3Q’09, the Baltic Exchange Dry Index, which measures freight prices, averaged 821.4 points, 82.3% down on the previous quarter’s average. Since February, however, a correction got under way and prices peaked at 2298 points at the beginning of March.

§
Domestic crystal sugar prices (ESALQ) averaged R$33.12/50kg bag (or R$ 662.34/t) in the 3Q’09, 9.1% up on the previous three months and 37.9% up year-on-year. The increase reflected reduced crystal supply in the Central-South, due to: (i) exceptionally high exports; (ii) producers massively favoring raw production; and (ii) retention of sugar by the banks as a guarantee of debt payments, although there are no estimates of the precise volume involved.
     
   
     
 
§
Domestic hydrous ethanol prices (ESALQ) averaged R$0.752/liter in the 3Q’09, 2.8% up on the previous three months, while anhydrous prices dipped by 0.7% to an average R$0.882/liter. In relation to the 3Q’08, hydrous moved up by 3.9% and anhydrous by 8.2%.

§
According to preliminary figures from Secex (Brazil’s Foreign Trade Secretariat), ethanol exports from the 2008/09 harvest through February/09 reached the record level of 4.28 billion liters, 43.8% up year-on-year. In January and February however, as expected, export demand was 47.1% lower than the same period last year, totaling 309.6 million liters.
     
   
     
 
§
According to Brazil’s National Petroleum Agency (ANP), domestic retail gasoline prices averaged R$2.477/liter at the end of the 3Q’09, while hydrous ethanol averaged R$1.541/liter, giving a parity of 62.2%. Ethanol prices only exceeded 75% of gasoline prices in five Brazilian states (Acre, Amapá, Pará, Piauí and Roraima). In São Paulo state, the country’s largest consumption center, the ratio stood at only 54.9%.
     
 
§
Despite the economic slowdown, ethanol consumption continued to move up. According to the ANP, hydrous consumption climbed 25.7% year-on-year in November and December, reaching 2.5 billion liters. The year-to-date total stood at 13.3 billion liters, 41.9% up on the year before. Year-to-date anhydrous sales came to 6.3 billion liters, 7.7% more than the same period in the previous year, pushed by the 3.5% upturn in the consumption of C gasoline (the gasoline/anhydrous ethanol blend), which totaled 4.4 billion liters.
     
 
§
In December and January, Brazilian vehicle sales began to react to the government’s auto industry incentives, although they still recorded a year-on-year downturn. These incentives included, as of December, a R$4 billion injection to generate more liquidity and facilitate vehicle financing and a reduction in the IPI (federal VAT) rate on vehicle sales until March 2009.
     
 
§
According to Anfavea, the auto manufacturers’ association, new car sales totaled 540,000 units in the 3Q’09. Flex-fuel vehicles exceeded 465,000 units, or 86.2% of the total. January’s sales fell 7.6% year-on-year, versus market expectations of a close-to-20% drop, while in February sales were slightly higher than the same period of the previous year, reaching 191,285 units.

§
In the distribution sector, despite the reduced pace of vehicle sales, there is still plenty of room for companies affiliated to Sindicom (an association of the 5 fuel largest fuel distributors) to consolidate the distribution segment by increasing their market share, especially in relation to the independent gas stations. In 2008, Sindicom affiliates were responsible for 84% of total diesel sales, 76,4% of C gasoline sales and 59.% of hydrous ethanol sales, representing respective annual sales increases of 2.3 billion, 0.3 billion and 2.6 billion liters. Also in 2008, sales by all distributors totaled 44.8 billion liters of diesel, 25,2 billion de liters of C gasoline  and 13.3 billion liters of hydrous ethanol, respective increases of 7%, 3.5% and 41.9% over 2007.

Dollar hovers around new level of R$2.30/US$
§
The dollar remained highly volatile throughout the 3Q’09, although concentrated within a narrower band between R$2.12 and R$2.50/US$. The Real closed the period at R$2.32/US$, 9.5% down on the quarter before and 29.3% less than the end of January 2008.
     
 
B. Operating Performance
     
 
§
Net revenue totaled R$2,565.6 million in the 3Q’09, following the consolidation of two months of operations (December 2008 and January 2009) of Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes (CCL), 280.7% up year-on-year.
     
 
§
EBITDA of R$234.5 million was the best quarterly result since the 2Q’07, until then the Company’s best ever figure, and already 35% more than in the FY’08, Cosan’s last fiscal year.
     
 
§
EBITDAH of R$359.5 million was also a new quarterly record, the best result since the constitution of Cosan.
     
 
§
The Company posted net income of R$5.2 million, despite the heavy weight of depreciation and amortizations and the financial expenses from the exchange variation, reversing the 3Q’08 net loss.

Exchange rate helps 3Q’09 exports
§
Following the consolidation of CCL, fuel distribution began to play a bigger role in Cosan’s revenue mix, contributing 58.5% of the 3Q’09 total. However, as in the previous quarter, the Real continued to depreciate against the U.S. dollar, which, in terms of sugar and ethanol production and sales, favored Cosan’s exports and, consequently, sugar sales, with a bigger emphasis on overseas shipments. As a result, sugar accounted for 21.1% of total sales, while ethanol produced and sold (excluding distributed) accounted for 14.2%. Lubricant distribution, another CCL contribution, accounted for 3.4% of net consolidated sales and other products and services for at least 2.8%.

Dollar prices and exchange rate push up average prices in R$ by more than 50%
 
§
The hefty 94.4% upturn in sugar revenue was fueled by the 28.6% year-on-year increase in sales volume to 808,800 tonnes, but chiefly benefited from the 51.6% jump in average prices, in turn due to the exchange rate used to convert exports to Reais. However, average export prices moved up strongly, from 11.00 ¢US$/lb in the 3Q’08, to 13.05 ¢US$/lb in the 3Q’09, dollar growth of 18.7%. In line with Cosan’s commercial policy, inventories closed the quarter at 967,000 tonnes, 11.8% higher than at the end of the 3Q’08.

High inter-harvest ethanol inventories
 
§
Prospects of high ethanol consumption and low inter-harvest inventories were crucial in the ”full tank”  strategy, which reduced sales volume by 9.2% over the 3Q’08 to 438.1 million liters and raised end-of-period stocks to 719.4 million liters. However the volume reduction, which was part of the strategy, pushed average prices up by 12.45% year-on-year to R$831 per thousand liters. It is worth noting that, although ethanol imports from the U.S. and Europe fell in the 3Q’09, Cosan recorded ethanol exports of 90,500 m3 in the quarter, all of which from sales recorded in previous periods.

Electricity sales begin to impact revenue and EBITDA
§
Revenue from other CAA products and services moved up by 50.5% year-on-year, due to: (i) R$7.7 million in revenue from electricity sales, this time billed by the three operational units (Costa Pinto, Rafard and Gasa); (ii) revenue growth of R$6.2 million from the sale of around 273,000 tonnes of sugar to third parties, mostly from the Bonfim plant in the Araraquara region; (iii) a 20.7%, or R$2.4 million, increase in revenue from Da Barra products; and (iv) a 90.4% upturn in revenue from port services to R$7.4 million, also favored by the exchange rate, given that sugar loading prices are fixed in dollars.
     
Revenue growth from fuel distribution led by increasing ethanol volumes
§
Although the 3Q’09 was the first quarter in which the Company consolidated CCL’s results, it opted to compare Cosan’s revenue, volume and prices in December/08 and January/09 in the 3Q’09 with those in December/07 and January/08 in the 3Q’08. In this comparison, volume moved up by 1.0% and average prices by 1.5%, resulting in a 2.5% increase in net fuel revenue. In segment terms, ethanol distribution sales volume climbed by 27.8%, or 28 million liters, thanks to increased demand from flex-fuel cars. Diesel volume fell by 5.1%, or 16 million liters, due to reduced sales to industry, transport firms and highway service stations, pulled down by the impact of the global financial crisis on economic activity. On the price front, it is worth noting the reduction in the price of ethanol acquired by CCL from the ethanol plants in the closing months of 2008, due to increased market supply of the product. As a result, CCL’s sale price fell in the same period, with an adverse impact on revenue. As for diesel, the 9.0% hike in refinery-gate prices in May/08 and the mandatory addition of between 1 and 3% of biodiesel to the product were entirely passed on to prices.

Lubricant sales volume fell 19.2% year-on-year, or 3.7 million liters, 2.5 million of which in the distribution and gas station segment, partially due to the slowdown in industrial activity triggered by the financial crisis, and partially to the bringing forward of lubricant purchases by CCL’s main customers to October and November as a result of December’s change in control. Sales to the industrial segment declined by 1.1 million liters, largely for the same reasons. However, the average unit price climbed by 36.3%, chiefly thanks to the exchange-driven increase in base oil prices. As a result of these two factors, lubricant revenue moved up by 10.2%.

The cost of goods sold and services rendered by Cosan totaled R$2,187.6 million, pushed by the new fuel distribution business (CCL), which contributed 66.1% of the total.
 
§
In terms of sugar and ethanol production and sales, COGS moved up by 13.8% due to the 7.2% upturn in sales volume, the 28.6% increase in sugar volume, the 9.2% reduction in ethanol sales volume and the 6.4% rise in the unit cost from R$390/t of sugar equivalent to R$415/t. Two factors were primarily responsible for the latter upturn. The first was the increase in the cost of cane acquired from third parties (priced by sucrose content or ATR), which climbed from R$0.2411/kg, in the 3Q08, to R$0.2696/kg, raising cane costs from R$45.47/t to 46.70/t, albeit still below the cost of Cosan’s own cane which remained flat at R$51/t. In addition, in this harvest the Company expanded the share of suppliers’ cane from 46% to 50%, reducing the impact on the average cane cost. The second factor was the 4.11% reduction in the quantity of the ATR, from 144.08 kg per tonne of cane in 2007/08 to 138.17kg/t in 2008/09. It is also worth remembering that processing costs not only lagged period inflation but actually recorded a 1% reduction from R$ 10.93/t to R$10.83/t, thanks to the Company’s cost-cutting programs.

§
In the 3Q’09, sugar recorded the biggest gross margin (38.9%), equivalent to R$260 per tonne of sugar sold. It is worth remembering, however, that this product, when exported, incurs selling expenses consisting of highway freight charges to Santos as well as port loading expenses, unlike ethanol sales which largely take place in the plants themselves and incur no such expenses. Fuel and lubricant gross margins narrowed, chiefly due to reduced demand for diesel and the impact of the higher base oil prices on lubricant sales. On the other hand, despite the reductions in producers’ margins, final consumer ethanol prices remained at levels that permitted a wider distribution margin.

Selling expenses move up over the previous quarter, due to higher sugar exports and the need to hire external warehousing facilities
§
CAA’s selling expenses increased by 25.1% over the 3Q’08 to R$91.8 million, thanks to the 28.6% upturn in sugar sales volume, especially exports, which climbed by 44.5%. The greater need for product storage this harvest, given the Company’s strategy of concentrating sales at the end of the fiscal year, led to the hiring of space in third-party storage facilities, generating additional expenses of R$4.1 million. Ethanol export freight expenses moved up from R$50/m³, in the 3Q’08, to R$61/m³, due to the alteration in the export plant mix, with a bigger share of the plants more distant from Santos (Araçatuba region). In addition ethanol loading expenses climbed by R$25/m³ due to the 3Q’09 exchange rate.

§
G&A expenses totaled R$72.3 million, 44.9% up on the R$49.9 million recorded in the 3Q’08, mainly due, in addition to the absorption of CCL, to the creation of new business lines, including the Benalcool and Jataí industrial units, which involved expenses of around R$9.6 million. In addition, consulting services related to the integration of CCL generated expenses of R$3.7 million.
     
 
§
Given the extended length of the harvest this year, Cosan incurred extra expenses related to social assistance for its agricultural and industrial harvest workers that were not incurred in the 3Q’08, in addition to the expenses (commented on in the 2Q’09 earnings release) from the hiring of the entire cane-cutting workforce directly by Cosan under the CLT (registered salary) system, thereby cutting out sub-contractors.

Other operating expenses amounted to R$14.4 million, mainly comprising net reversals of R$5.5 million in  provisions for tax contingencies and R$ 4,5 million in storage, dispatch and take-or-pay revenue from port and logistics operations relative to performance premiums in sugar loading services and compensation for unshipped contracted volumes.
     
EBITDAH of R$359.5 million is the best quarterly result in Cosan’s history
§
Given these operating results, adjusted for depreciation and amortization, Cosan recorded 3Q’09 EBITDA of R$ 234.5 million, a vigorous turn-around in relation to the near-break-even figure in the 3Q’08. This figure included R$25.7 million, or 11.5% of the total, from CCL. In addition, if we consider financial results from derivative hedge instruments, EBITDAH reached R$359.5 million, 280.8% up year-on-year and an all-time Company record.

§
However, it is worth remembering that Cosan’s quarterly EBITDA considers the period’s operating revenue, costs and expenses before period depreciation booked under production costs and not depreciation booked under COGS. Thus in inter-harvest quarters when production is low, such as the 3Q’09, reported EBITDA is lower than effective operational cash flow. If EBITDA were disclosed considering depreciation under COGS, the EBITDA margin would be around 5 percentage points higher. In the coming fiscal year, with the adoption of international accounting practices (IFRS), Cosan will begin reporting EBITDA and depreciation relative to period sales and not production.
     
Exchange variation impacts quarter’s financial result
§
Net financial expenses moved up strongly over the 3Q’08 to R$159.2 million, chiefly due to the R$179.0 million impact of the exchange variation on dollar-denominated debt, reflecting the hefty devaluation of the Real against the U.S. currency. However, this had no cash effect, since it was calculated on the principal of the long-term/perpetual debt. Nevertheless, there was also a big increase in cash-based charges on Cosan’s gross debt, caused by the upturn in the debt itself, due to the recent acquisition of CCL, and the increase in the value in Reais of interest on the dollar debt.

§
As in the 3Q’08, derivative transactions played an important role in the quarterly results, restoring the prices of products sold and the export exchange rate to levels fixed in previous periods. Commodity derivatives generated gains of R$26.3 million, versus gains of R$8.3 million in the 3Q’08, while FX derivatives generated gains of R$98.7 million, against gains of R$84.8 million in the 3Q’08.
   
§
At the close of the 3Q’09, Cosan had 651,500 tonnes of VHP sugar tied to the NY11, hedged at an average price of 13.12 ¢US$/lb, a position which, marked to market, has an estimated market value of R$8.9 million, and 15,000 tonnes of refined sugar tied to the LND05, hedged at an average price of US$315.21/t, which, marked to market, has an estimated negative market value of R$2.0 million. Cosan also had US$539.4 million hedged at an average exchange rate of R$2.03/US$ with an estimated negative market value of R$174.4 million. The market values of the derivative positions at the end of the 3Q’09 did not affect the quarterly results.
   
Beginning of goodwill amortization from the acquisition of CCL increases non-cash expenses by R$24.8 million

COSAN S.A. INDÚSTRIA E COMÉRCIO
 
Report on Company’s performance (Consolidated) (Continued)
 
 
 
§
Expenses from goodwill amortizations increased by 35.1% to R$65.2 million. Of this total, R$24.8 million refers to two months of amortizations of the goodwill from the acquisition of CCL, totaling R$1,488.2 million, corresponding to the difference between R$1,683.7 million, the price paid to acquire 100% of the shares, and R$195.5 million, the value of CCL’s shareholders’ equity on November 30, 2008. This goodwill will be amortized over 10 years.
     
 
§
The non-operating result of R$105.9 million included capital gains of R$109.5 million from the sale of 18,230 hectares of land Cosan owned through Agrícola Ponte Alta to Radar for R$286.3 million, equivalent to R$15.703/hectare.
     
Cosan records net income of R$5.2 million, reversing the 3Q’08 loss of R$71.4 million
§
After deducting all expenses, including R$179.0 million (non-cash) from the exchange variation and R$65.2 million (also non-cash) from the amortization of goodwill, and thanks to record EBITDAH of R$359.5 million, Cosan converted a net loss of R$71.4 million in the 3Q’08 into net income of R$5.2 million in the 3Q’09.
     
 
C. Financial Situation
     
 
§
The Company closed the 3Q’09 with gross financial debt of R$4,210.7 million, substantially higher than the R$1,743.8 million reported at the end of the 3Q’08, chiefly due to the November 20, 2008 promissory notes issue and BNDES funding and the consolidation of CCL’s existing pre-acquisition floating rate notes. In addition, the exchange rate of R$2.3162/US$ pushed up the value in Reais of dollar-denominated debt considerably.

With cash and cash equivalents of R$ 689.7 million (excluding the US$200 million in cash held by the controlling shareholder Cosan Ltd.), net debt closed the 3Q’09 at R$3,521.1 million, equivalent to 4.2 times EBITDAH in the 12 months ended January 31, 2009 (including CCL’s LTM results). However, maintaining the focus on the debt profile and term, and given that most debt is due in the long term (2017) or perpetual, net debt due in up to 5 years is only 1.3 times LTM EBITDA. Thus the 35:65 short-term/long-term ratio and the group’s cash reserves put Cosan in a comfortable liquidity position.

§
The 20.5% reduction in operating capex over the 3Q’08 was led by planting expenses. Throughout the 3Q’09, Cosan maintained its declared intention of reducing renewed planting area in order to minimize the impact of surplus sugar supply on installed industrial capacity. On the other hand, inter-harvest industrial maintenance expenses moved up 21.4% year-on-year due to the speeding up of maintenance procedures in order to equip the plants for the earlier-than-usual beginning of the next harvest in the coming fiscal year.
     
 
§
Other important investments included: (i) R$36.8 million in the acquisition of mechanized harvesting equipment; and (ii) R$2.0 million in the construction of pipelines to carry vignasse to the plantations for environmental reasons and to reduce dependence on fertilizers. On the industrial side, R$20.6 million was divided among 133 projects, many of which can only take place in the off season, notably: (i) R$3.6 million in the continuous fermentation project and the heat exchangers in Bonfim, aiming to increase industrial and electrical efficiency; and (ii) R$2.4 million to replace the gas purification systems in Barra’s operational boilers.
     
The Jataí greenfield project moves ahead at an accelerated pace, in preparation for beginning crushing operations in 2009
§
As for expansion capex, the main expenditure was on the Jataí greenfield project, which absorbed R$ 166.3 million, 36.9% of total capex, most of which went to the electrical installations, distillery and other high-value components. It is worth remembering that cane harvesting in Jataí will be 100% mechanized, thereby avoiding burning in line with Cosan’s environmental preservation policy.

COSAN S.A. INDÚSTRIA E COMÉRCIO
 
Report on Company’s performance (Consolidated) (Continued)
 
 
 
§
Co-generation investments totaled R$103.5 million, most of which went to the Gasa and Bonfim units, which absorbed R$ 29.8 million and R$35.5 million, respectively, and are scheduled for start-up in 2010. Cosan is finalizing the Costa Pinto, Rafard and Gasa projects and has already begun planning investments in Diamante and Univalem, all of which already have energy sale contracts.
     
 
§
Finally, period investments not related to capex comprised: (i) the acquisition of CCL for R$1,683.7 million (actual expenditure of R$1,451.5 million after deducting CCL’s shareholders’ equity and cash position); (ii) R$82.2 million, equivalent to US$35.0 million, related to the second tranche of the capital transfer to Radar; (iii) pre-operating expenses of R$5.5 million in Cosan Centro-Oeste (Jataí project) and Cosan Bioenergia (co-generation project).
     
 
E. Material Facts
     
 
§
On January 27, 2009, Cosan announced that the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) had approved the admission of the Company’s subscription warrants for trading on the stock market. These warrants constituted an additional benefit to the subscribers of each new share resulting from the Cosan S.A. capital increase which was concluded on November 10, 2008. The subscription warrants can be traded as independent securities under the ticker CSAN11 on the São Paulo Stock Exchange (BM&F Bovespa S.A. Bolsa de Valores) and may be exercised at any time until December 31, 2009.
     
 
§
In March 2009, Rumo Logística S.A. entered into an agreement with ALL for the rail transportation of bulk sugar and other sugarcane by-products. The agreement envisages investments of approximately R$ 1.2 billion by Rumo, which will be raised in such a way as not to increase the group’s debt. The funds will be allocated as follows: (i) R$535 million to duplicating, expanding and improving the track and yards of the Bauru-Santos/SP rail corridor; (ii) R$ 435 million to the acquisition of locomotives and railcars; and (iii) R$ 206 million to the construction and expansion of terminals. In return, ALL will guarantee (i) a minimum transport volume curve, reaching 1.09 million tonnes per month as of the 4th year; (ii) competitive tariffs in comparison with road transport; (iii) management of the works and indication of rolling stock suppliers; and (iv) payment of rent on equipment in proportion to the volume of merchandise transported. These investments will permit the transportation of around 9 million tonnes per year to the Port of Santos if the contractual conditions are implemented.
