Report of independent auditors on the consolidated financial statements

To the Management and Members of
PGS Consultoria e Serviços Ltda.
Sao Paulo - SP

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of PGS Consultoria e Serviços Ltda. (the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in members’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in conformity with accounting practices adopted in Brazil, this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified audit opinion.
 


1


Basis for Qualified Opinion

The Company omitted financial statements for a preceding comparative period. In our opinion, disclosures of comparative financial statements and related information are required by the accounting practices adopted in Brazil, as promulgated by the Brazilian Accounting Standards Board. The omission of comparative financial statements and related disclosures represent in an incomplete presentation of the Company's financial statements.

Qualified Opinion

In our opinion, except for the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of PGS Consultoria e Serviços Ltda. as of December 31, 2012, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting practices adopted in Brazil.

Other Matter

The accounting practices adopted in Brazil differ, in certain significant aspects, from the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Information relating to the nature and effect of such differences is presented in Note 19 to the consolidated financial statements.

(In thousands of Brazilian reais, except when mentioned otherwise)


1.
Corporate information

PGS Consultoria e Serviços Ltda. (“PGS Consultoria” or the “Parent Company”) was formed in May 1997 and is headquartered at Av. Dr. Chucri Zaidan, 80, 8th floor, in the City and State of São Paulo.

PGS Consultoria is the holding company of the CLS Companies (collectively referred as the “Group”). The main purpose of the CLS Companies (“CLS”), which is comprised of (i) CLS São Paulo Ltda. (“CLS SP”); (ii) CLS Restaurantes Rio de Janeiro Ltda. (“CLS RJ”); (iii) CLS Restaurantes Brasília Ltda. (“CLS BSB”); and (iv) CLS Restaurantes do Sul Ltda. (“CLS do Sul”), is to explore and manage restaurants under the trademark “Outback Steakhouse” in Brazil.

“Outback Steakhouse” is an Australian steakhouse concept, which is open for lunch and dinner. Although beef and steak items make up a good portion of the menu, the concept offers a variety of chicken, ribs, seafood, and pasta dishes. The Group’s strategy is to differentiate its restaurants by emphasizing consistently high-quality food, concentrated service, generous portions at affordable prices and a casual atmosphere suggestive of the Australian Outback.

CLS operates 41 (forty-one) restaurants altogether, in twenty different cities, being: (i) 8 (eight) in Rio de Janeiro and 1 (one) in Niterói, State of Rio de Janeiro, and 1 (one) in Vitoria, State of Espirito Santo (CLS RJ); (ii) 11 (eleven) in São Paulo, 2 (two) in Campinas, 1(one) in Barueri, 1 (one) in São Bernado do Campo, 1(one) in São Caetano do Sul, 1(one) in São José dos Campos, 1 (one) in Ribeirão Preto, 1 (one) in Guarulhos and 1(one) in Jundiaí, State of São Paulo (CLS SP); (iii) 2 (two) in Brasília, Federal District, 1 (one) in Belo Horizonte, State of Minas Gerais, 2 (two) in Salvador, State of Bahia, 1 (one) in Goiânia, State of Goiás and 1 (one) in Recife, State of Pernambuco (CLS BSB); and (iv) 1 (one) in Porto Alegre, State of Rio Grande do Sul, 2 (two) in Curitiba, State of Paraná and 1 (one) in Florianópolis, State of Santa Catarina (CLS do Sul).

The consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 were authorized for issue by the Parent Company’s management on January 8, 2014.

2.
Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements were prepared and are presented in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil, which comprise the pronouncements, interpretations and guidance issued by the Brazilian Accounting Pronouncements Committee (Comitê de Pronunciamentos Contábeis (“CPC”)), which are converged to the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts. These estimates were determined based on objective and subjective factors, considering management’s judgment to determine the adequate amounts to be recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include selection of useful lives of property, fixtures and equipment and analysis of their recoverability in operations, credit risk assessment to determine the allowance for doubtful accounts, as well as analysis of other risks to determine other provisions, including those set up for contingencies. Settlement of transactions involving these estimates may result in amounts significantly different from those recorded in the consolidated financial statements due to the uncertainties inherent in the estimation process. The Group reviews its estimates and assumptions at least annually.

The consolidated financial statements presented herein do not include the Parent Company’s stand-alone financial statements and are not intended to be used for statutory purposes.

3.
Basis of consolidation (Continued)

(1)
The issued capital of the CLS Companies is shared primarily between PGS Consultoria, proprietors (stores’ managing partners) and JV’s (operating partners who supervise the Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Brasília and South Region stores), in accordance with their respective interests.

(2)
According to each individual partners’ association document known as “Protocolo de Entendimentos” (Memorandum of Understanding), dividends are distributed to non-controlling partners (proprietors and JV’s) based on certain criteria, such as a percentage of the pre-tax income results of their respective restaurants and supervision areas and other, being 100% of the remaining undistributed earnings of PGS Consultoria. Such dividends are recognized as compensation expense within the restaurant payroll expenses account for the period earned by the non-controlling partners. Further detail from the income statement is shown in the following table.

Restaurant Payroll Expense
 
 
Operating Payroll Expense
 
94,145

Compensation Expense (Proprietors & JV’s)
 
5,875

 
 
100,020



The financial statements of the CLS Companies are prepared for the same reporting period as the Parent Company. Accounting policies of CLS Companies have been adjusted to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group. All intra-group balances, income and expenses, unrealized gain and losses and dividends resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Capital contributions to the CLS Companies received from the non-controlling partners are recorded as long-term liabilities in the line item “non-controlling partner deposit”. Monthly payments made pursuant to the Memorandum of Understanding are paid as dividends and are recognized as compensation expense in the period earned by the non-controlling partners.


4.
Summary of significant accounting policies

4.1.
Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits are likely to flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when payment is made. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and taxes.

Revenue from sales is recognized when the significant risks and rewards have passed to the buyer. No revenue is recognized if there are significant uncertainties regarding its collection.

Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

4.2.
Foreign currency transactions (Continued)

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Brazilian Reais, which is also the Parent Company’s and the CLS Companies’ functional currency. Foreign currency transactions are initially recorded by the Group entities at the functional currency exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the functional currency exchange rate on the reporting date. All differences are recorded to the income statement.

4.3.
Financial instruments

Financial instruments are only recognized as of the date when the Group becomes a part of the contract provisions of financial instruments. Once recognized, they are initially recorded at their fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to their acquisition or issuance, except in the case of financial assets and liabilities classified in the category at fair value through profit or loss (“P&L”), when such costs are directly charged to P&L for the period. Subsequent measurement of financial assets and liabilities is determined by their classification at each balance sheet.

The Group’s most significant financial assets are cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable, whereas the main financial liabilities are comprised of trade accounts payable.

4.4.
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include bank account balances and short-term investments redeemable within three months or less from the date of acquisition, subject to insignificant risk of change in their market value.

4.5.
Trade accounts receivable

Trade accounts receivable are shown at realization amounts, and refer primarily to the amounts to be received from credit card companies due to the sales in the restaurants.

Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

4.6.
Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventories consist of food and beverages, and are stated at the average purchase cost.

4.7.
Property, fixtures and equipment

Property, fixtures and equipment are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated depreciation.

Improvements to leased properties are depreciated over the lease term. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Furniture and fixtures
 
10 years
Computers
 
5 years
Equipment and facilities
 
10 years
Buildings
 
25 years
Leasehold improvements
 
10 to 15 years

The CLS companies capitalize all direct costs incurred to construct its restaurants. Upon restaurant opening, these costs are depreciated and charged to the consolidated statements of income. The amount of interest capitalized in connection with restaurant construction was immaterial in all periods.

An item of property, fixtures and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gains or losses arising on derecognition of the asset is included in the consolidated statements of income when the asset is derecognized.

The assets’ residual value, useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed at each financial year end, and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

4.8.
Intangible assets

Intangible assets consist primarily of software and franchise fees. Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. After the initial recognition, intangible assets are presented at cost, net of accrued amortization and impairment losses.

4.8.
Intangible assets (Continued)

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life. Both finite and indefinite intangible assets are assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired.

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are included in the consolidated statements of income when the asset is derecognized.

4.9.
Loans

Loans are recognized initially at fair value, plus directly attributable transaction costs. Following the initial recognition, loans subject to interest are measured at the amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognized in the income statement at the time when the liabilities are written off, as well as during the amortization process according to the effective interest rate method.

4.10.
Other assets and liabilities

Liabilities are recognized in the balance sheet when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in an outflow of economic benefits. Provisions are recorded reflecting the best estimates of the risk involved. An asset is recognized in the balance sheet when it is likely that its economic benefits will flow to the Group and its cost or value may be safely measured.

Assets and liabilities are classified as current when their realization or settlement is likely to occur within the following twelve months. Otherwise they are stated as noncurrent.

4.11.
Taxation

Taxes on sales

Revenues from restaurant sales are subject to the following taxes and contributions, at the rates shown below:

State VAT - ICMS
From 2% to 25%
Social Contribution Tax on Gross Revenue for Social Integration Program - PIS
From 0.65 to 1.65%
Social Contribution Tax on Gross Revenue for Social Security Funding - COFINS
From 3.00 to 7.60%
Service Tax - ISS
From 2% to 5%

4.11.
Taxation (Continued)

Taxes on sales (Continued)

The restaurant sales are presented net from taxes and contributions deductions.

Taxation on income includes the income tax and the social contribution. CLS SP, CLS RJ and CLS Brasília record the income tax and social contribution based on taxable income. Income tax is calculated at a rate of 15%, plus a surtax of 10% on taxable profit exceeding R$ 240 over 12 months, whereas social contribution tax is computed at a rate of 9% on taxable profit, both recognized on an accrual basis.

Income tax and social contribution - current

Therefore, additions to the book profit of expenses, temporarily nondeductible, or exclusions from revenues, temporarily nontaxable, for computation of current taxable profit generate deferred tax credits or debits.

The computation for income tax and social contribution for the CLS Sul was calculated in accordance with the presumed profits method, which basis and rates are set forth in the tax legislation in force.

Advances or amounts subject to offset are stated in current or noncurrent assets, according to the estimate of their realization.

Income tax and social contribution - deferred

Deferred income tax and social contribution are generated by tax loss carryforwards and by temporary differences on the balance sheet date between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their book values.

The book value of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Taxation (Continued)

Income tax and social contribution - deferred (Continued)

Deferred income tax and social contribution assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right to offset exists and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

4.12.
Judgments, estimates and significant accounting assumptions

Judgments

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments and estimates, and adopt assumptions that affect the amounts stated for revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosures of contingent liabilities on the financial statement date.

However, uncertainties regarding these estimates and assumptions might lead to results that require significant adjustments to the book value of an asset or liability affected in future periods.

Estimates and assumptions

Major assumptions related to sources of uncertainty in future estimates and other relevant sources of uncertainty in estimates on the balance sheet date that entail significant risk of material adjustment to the book value of assets and liabilities in the next financial year are discussed as follows.

Judgments, estimates and significant accounting assumptions (Continued)

Impairment loss on nonfinancial assets

Impairment loss exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less sales costs and value in use. The fair value less sales cost is calculated based on available information about similar asset sales transactions or market-observable prices less additional costs to dispose of the asset item. In 2012, the Group recorded impairment loss in the amount of R$ 170 related to leasehold improvements located at the stores and office spaces that the Group plans to vacate and re-allocate based on landlords agreements. No other evidence indicating that the asset net book values exceeding their recoverable amounts has been identified.

Taxes

Uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation of complex tax regulations and the amount and timing of future taxable income. The Group establishes provisions, based on reasonable estimates, for possible consequences of audits by the tax authorities. The amount of such provisions is based on several factors, such as experience of previous tax audits and differing interpretations of tax regulations by the taxable entity and the responsible tax authority.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilized. Significant management judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax strategies.

The Group has tax loss carryforwards for both income tax and social contribution amounting to approximately R$ 6,564 at December 31, 2012. These losses, which relate to the Parent Company that has a history of taxable losses, do not expire and may not be used to offset taxable income elsewhere in the Group. Tax offsettable losses generated in Brazil may be offset against future taxable profit up to 30% of the taxable profit determined in any given year. CLS SP, CLS RJ and CLS Brasília have no tax losses, but taxable temporary differences.

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the income statement net of any reimbursement.

Provisions are recorded in an amount considered sufficient by the Group’s management, supported by the opinion of their legal advisors, to cover probable losses on lawsuits. Further details on contingencies are disclosed in Note 12.

4.13.
Non-controlling partner distributions and buyouts

The proprietors and the JVs are required to sign a five to seven-year agreement Memorandum of Understanding and to purchase an ownership interest in the CLS Companies. This ownership interest gives the proprietor and the JVs the right to receive distributions based on a percentage of the after-tax income results of their respective restaurants for the duration of the agreement.

PGS Consultoria has the option to purchase the non-controlling partners’ interests after a five to seven-year period based on the terms specified in the agreement.

The Group estimates future purchases of proprietors’ and JVs’ interests using current information on restaurant performance and records the non-controlling partner obligations in the line item “accrued buyout liability” in the consolidated balance sheet. In the period the Group purchases the proprietors’ and JVs’ interest, an adjustment is recorded to recognize any remaining expense associated with the purchase and reduce the related accrued buyout liability.

Distributions made to proprietors and JVs are included in “restaurant payroll expenses” and “general and administrative expenses,” respectively, in the consolidated statement of income.

Operating Leases

Rent expense for the Group’s operating leases, which generally have escalating rentals over the term of the lease and may include potential rent holidays, is recorded on a straight-line basis over the initial lease term and those renewal periods that are reasonably assured. The initial lease term includes the “build-out” period of the Group’s leases, which is typically before rent payments are due under the terms of the lease. The difference between rent expense and rent paid is recorded as deferred rent and is included in the consolidated balance sheet. Payments received from landlords as incentives for leasehold improvements are recorded as deferred rent and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease as a reduction of rent expense. Lease termination fees, if any, and future obligated lease payments for closed locations are recorded as an expense in the period that they are incurred.

4.15.
Pre-Opening Expenses

Non-capital expenditures associated with opening new restaurants are expensed as incurred.

New accounting pronouncements

The Group adopted all pronouncements, revised pronouncements and interpretations issued by CPC and IASB that were effective as of December 31, 2012. Regarding IAS 12 (R) - Income Taxes, IFRS 1(R) - First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards and IFRS 7 (R) - Financial Instruments: Disclosures, which were revised by IASB and first adopted in 2012, without any impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group as at December 31, 2012.

Regarding IAS 1 (R) - Presentation of Financial Statements, IAS 19 (R) - Employee Benefits, IAS 32 (R) - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, IFRS 1 (R) - First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards and IFRS 7 (R) - Financial Instruments: Disclosures, IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement, IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements, IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements, IFRS 12 - Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, IFRS 13 - Fair Value Measurement, IAS 27 (R) - Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements and IAS 28 (R) - Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures, which are new or revised pronouncements issued by CPC and IASB prior to 2012, adoption of which is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, the Group did not assess if the adoption of these pronouncements will have any impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Inventory is counted at the end of every month and controlled in all stores and at the distribution center; expired inventories are disposed of immediately and recorded as expense. Inventories differences are adjusted within the month and against the cost of sales for such period, as this is a periodic inventory, everything on hand should be usable and therefore no risk of loss or expiration is expected.

Distribution of Profits - CLS Companies

Dividends paid to proprietors (stores’ managing partners) and to JVs (operating partners who supervise the Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Brasília and South Region stores) are distributed according to the criteria stated within each individual partner’s association document referred to as Memorandum of Understanding.

Partners are paid dividends according to a percentage of the after-tax income results (“ATI”) of their respective restaurants, as per their P&L statements. It is 7.5% of ATI for managing partners and 3% to 6% for operating partners. Members of top management have also received dividends based on certain monthly fixed amounts stipulated in the previous year’s budget submitted to and approved by OSI.

Based on the above and in accordance with local laws allowing actual distributions to be different than the exact amount owed to a partner, based on his/her members’ position, the CLS Companies distributed the following amounts to its partners during 2012:

Proprietors (stores’ managing partners)
 
4,052

JVs (operating partners)
 
1,823

Executives
 
2,395

 
 
8,270


Dividends paid to the non-controlling partners (proprietors and JVs) are recognized as compensation expense in the consolidated statements of income in the period earned. Additional detail is provided at Note 3.

There are no guarantees and allowances for doubtful accounts for loans and other transactions with related parties.

Loans

As of December 31, 2012 the Group has a R$ 34 outstanding loan balance with Banco Bradesco S.A. which is classified as a current obligation.

On January 10, 2011, CLS Brasília entered into a loan agreement with Banco Nordeste Brasil S.A.. The principal amount of the loan on that date was R$ 2,494 and was to be paid in 36 monthly installments of principal and interest beginning on February 10, 2012 and ending on January 10, 2015. The principal amount was subject to annual interest of 9.5%. The loan was guaranteed by PGS Consultoria. As of December 31, 2012 the Group has fully paid the balance of the loan with no penalties for early payments.


12. Commitments and contingencies

The Group is involved in tax, civil and labor lawsuits arising in the normal course of its activities. These matters are discussed at the administrative and judicial levels. Judicial deposits related to these matters are made, when applicable. The Group accrues for loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable and this assessment is carried out based on the information available and on risk factors inherent to each process, in accordance with the opinion of the Group’s legal advisors. The Group generally does not accrue for legal costs expected to be incurred with a loss contingency until those services are provided.

Based on the information of its legal advisors and on the analysis of legal procedures pending judgment and controversy tax obligation, the Group has decided to set up a provision at an amount deemed sufficient to cover probable losses arising from unfavorable outcomes of lawsuits in progress, tax obligation challenges and tax assessments. Based on the opinion from external legal advisors, the Group has decided to constitute the provision in the amount of R$5,498 under the scenario of adopting the new amnesty program established by the State of Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro according to State Laws 58.811/12 and 6.357/12, respectively.

The most significant cases for the CLS Companies involve amounts totaling approximately R$ 5,573 (CLS SP). These lawsuits were filed by Secretaria de Fazenda do Estado de São Paulo seeking additional payments for ICMS under the taxpayer substitution system in addition to fines for noncompliance with other accessory obligations. The most significant case for PGS Consultoria, involves an amount totaling approximately R$ 1,913 and the tax authorities are arguing that the Group did not evidence the source of some amounts received in 1998, considered by the tax authorities as derived from sales of goods without taxation and without a tax invoice (ICMS Tax Assessment).

12. Commitments and contingencies (Continued)

The Group is questioning a matter related to the validity of the social contribution tax for intervention in the economic order (CIDE), established by Law, on the remittance of royalties. Management, supported by preliminary injunctions granted in its favor, is judicially paying this tax. The judicial deposits related to this matter amount to R$ 4,891 at December 31, 2012. The Group maintains a provision of R$ 4,758 related to this tax.

As of December 31, 2012, the Group’s external legal advisors estimate the chances of a final unfavorable outcome as “possible” in certain matters, primarily related to labor, civil and tax claims. The total possible contingencies that are uncertain at this time and could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s financial condition are R$ 15,501 as of December 31, 2012.


13.
Income tax and social contribution

CLS do Sul has elected to calculate income tax and social contribution using the “presumed profits” method. Under the “presumed profits” method, taxable income is calculated as an amount equal to different percentages of gross revenue based on the activities of the taxpayer.

Under current Brazilian tax law, the percentages of the CLS Companies’ gross revenues are 8% for calculating income tax, and 12% for social contribution. The Parent Company, CLS SP, CLS RJ, and CLS BSB calculate their income tax and social contribution using the “actual profits” method, which is based on total taxable income.

Tax loss carry forwards through December 31, 2012 relating to income tax and social contributions were approximately R$ 6,564 comprised entirely of fiscal results of the Parent Company. These tax loss carry forwards can offset future taxable income. Brazilian tax laws restrict the offset of tax losses to 30% of taxable profits on an annual basis. These losses can be used indefinitely and are not impacted by a change in ownership of the Parent Company.

Components of deferred income tax and social contribution (Continued)

Deferred income tax and social contribution assets, resulting from tax loss carry forwards and temporary differences are recorded taking into consideration the probable realization thereof, based on projected future results of operations considering internal assumptions and future economic scenarios that are subject to change. These projections indicate that future operating results will provide taxable income for CLS SP, CLS RJ and CLS BSB. The unused credits reflect the assessment of the likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset comprised of the tax loss carry forwards attributable to the Parent Company.

14.3.
Non-controlling interest (JV partners and proprietors)

According to each individual partners’ association document known as Memorandum of Understanding, dividends are distributed to non-controlling partners (proprietors and JVs) based on certain criteria, such as a percentage of the pre-tax income results of their respective restaurants and supervision areas and other components, being 100% of the remaining undistributed earnings of PGS Consultoria’s results. These dividends are effectively paid and recognized as compensation expense and are not fully determined at each CLS’s results level rather on the individual store (proprietors) or group of stores (JV partners), therefore the amount of these dividends is recognized as Operating Expense in the income statement in the period earned by the non-controlling partners.


15.
Financial instruments

The Group evaluated its financial assets and liabilities in relation to market value through available information available and appropriate evaluation methodologies. The interpretation of market data and the selection of valuation methods require extensive judgment and estimates to calculate the most appropriate realization value.

Consequently, the estimates presented do not necessarily show the amounts that may be realized in the market. The use of different market assumptions and/or methods may have a material effect on the estimated realization values.

The Group’s main financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable.

Fair value measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is a market-based measurement. To measure fair value, the Group incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, and utilizes market data to the maximum extent possible.

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable and short-term accounts payable approximate their respective book values due to the their short-term maturity.

As a basis for considering the market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, a three-tier fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair values as follows:

Level 1 - observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Group has the ability to access;

Level 2 - inputs, other than the quoted market prices included in Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 - unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market data available.

15.
Financial instruments (Continued)

The fair value measurement of short-term investments classified as cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2012, in the amount of R$ 21,471, uses inputs that fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Group is not engaged in any outstanding hedging instruments, term contracts, swap operations, options, futures, or embedded derivatives operations. Therefore, the Group has no risk related to derivatives utilization policies.

Significant market risk factors affecting the Group’s business are as follows:

Exchange rate risk

This risk arises from the possibility of the Group incurring losses because of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

The Group does not use hedging instruments to protect against exchange rate fluctuations between the Brazilian real and the US dollar.

Credit risk

This risk mainly involves the Groups’ cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Group carries out operations with highly-rated banks, which minimizes risk.

Accounts receivable are substantially generated from credit card companies resulting from sales in the restaurants. Management does not anticipate losses in the realization of such receivables.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group may not have sufficient funds to comply with their financial commitments due to the different currencies and settlement terms of their rights and obligations.

In order to mitigate liquidity risk for the Parent Company and its subsidiaries. the Group’s liquidity and cash flow is monitored on a daily basis by Management, assuring that cash flow from operations and available funding, when necessary, is sufficient to meet its commitment schedule.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that the Group incurs losses because of fluctuations in interest rates that could increase certain financial expenses related to loans and financing raised from the market. The Group’s exposure to market risks for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the bank debt and loans with related parties. Considering the Group’s debt profile, management considers the risk of exposure to interest rate variation to be insignificant.

Capital Management

Capital includes units of interest and equity attributable to the equity holders of the Parent.

The primary objective of the Group’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains sufficient capital in order to support its business and maximize member value.

Summary and reconciliation of the differences between the accounting practices adopted in Brazil and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America

The consolidated financial statements were prepared and are presented in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil (“BR GAAP”), which comprise the pronouncements, interpretations and guidance issued by the Brazilian Accounting Pronouncements Committee (“CPC”), which are converged to the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements summarize the principal accounting practices adopted by the Group.

BR GAAP differs, in certain significant respects, from U.S. GAAP. The significant differences are described in the reconciliation table below. Other differences do not have a significant effect on either net income or members' equity:

(3,167
)
Net income based on U.S. GAAP
 
 
 
21,095


a.Income Taxes

Unlike U.S. GAAP, BR GAAP does not presently contain specific guidance on the accounting for uncertain tax positions. As such, diversity in practice exists regarding the recognition, derecognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions. Companies are required to adopt a policy on accounting for uncertain tax positions upon conversion from US GAAP to BR GAAP that is not inconsistent with the requirement in IAS 12 that tax assets and liabilities should be measured at the amount expected to be paid.

The Group has received tax assessments in the amount of R$ 3,167 subject to income taxes arising from capital gains recognized on a previous corporate reorganization. As a result, under U.S. GAAP, the Parent Company recorded an additional income tax provision related to an uncertain tax position in the amount of R$ 3,167 at December 31, 2012. For BR GAAP purposes, no provision was recorded as the Company’s external lawyers assessed the tax assessments as possible chance of loss and at December 31, 2012 there is no amount expected to be paid.

Classification of statement of cash flows

Under BR GAAP, the classification of certain cash flow items is presented differently from U.S. GAAP. Under BR GAAP, interest paid is recorded in financing activities. For U.S. GAAP purposes, interest paid is classified in operating activities.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. ASU 2011-11 requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position, and to allow investors to better compare financial statements prepared under U.S. GAAP with financial statements prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The new standards are effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. Retrospective application is required. The Group will implement the provisions of ASU 2011-11 effective January 1, 2013.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (“ASU No. 2013-02”), which requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. The guidance requires an entity to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other required disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. ASU No. 2013-02 will be effective for the Group prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU No. 2013-02 on January 1, 2013 is not expected to have an impact on the Group’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)” (“ASU No. 2013-11”). Under ASU No. 2013-11, an entity is required to present its unrecognized tax benefits net of its deferred tax assets when settlement in this manner is available under the tax law, which would be based on facts and circumstances as of the balance sheet reporting date and would not consider future events. Gross presentation in the notes to the financial statements will still be required. ASU No. 2013-11 will be effective for the Group for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2013 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. ASU No. 2013-11 will apply on a prospective basis to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date, with the option to apply it retrospectively. This guidance will not have an impact upon adoption at January 1, 2014 on the Group’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows as the Group currently presents its unrecognized tax benefits net of its deferred tax assets where applicable.

Subsequent Event

On October 31, 2013, a Quota Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), was entered into by and between OSI’s parent company, Bloomin’ Brands, Inc. (“BBI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBI, Bloom Holdco Participações Ltda. (“Purchaser”), PGS Participações Ltda. (“PGS Par”), the equity holders of PGS Par (the “Sellers”), the the Parent Company, and Bloom Participações Ltda., parent company of Purchaser. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, effective November 1, 2013, the Purchaser completed the acquisition of a controlling interest in the Parent Company by purchasing 80% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of PGS Par, which held a 50% interest in the Parent Company (the “Acquisition”) for a purchase price of R$240.8 million. Prior to the Acquisition, the Purchaser held a 50% interest in the Parent Company. As a result of the Acquisition, the Purchaser now holds a 90% interest in the Parent Company.

Effective December 1, 2013, the Parent Company was merged into Purchaser with Purchaser remaining as the surviving entity. Purchaser accounted for the Acquisition as a business combination utilizing the step acquisition method and, as a result has recorded the assets and liabilities assumed at fair value as of the acquisitions date.

1.
Corporate information

PGS Consultoria e Serviços Ltda. (“PGS Consultoria” or the “Parent Company”) was formed in May 1997 and is headquartered at Av. Dr. Chucri Zaidan, 80, 8th floor, in the City and State of São Paulo.

PGS Consultoria is the holding company of the CLS Companies (collectively referred as the “Group”). The main purpose of the CLS Companies (“CLS”), which is comprised of (i) CLS São Paulo Ltda. (“CLS SP”); (ii) CLS Restaurantes Rio de Janeiro Ltda. (“CLS RJ”); (iii) CLS Restaurantes Brasília Ltda. (“CLS BSB”); and (iv) CLS Restaurantes do Sul Ltda. (“CLS do Sul”), is to explore and manage restaurants under the trademark “Outback Steakhouse” in Brazil.

“Outback Steakhouse” is an Australian steakhouse concept, which is open for lunch and dinner. Although beef and steak items make up a good portion of the menu, the concept offers a variety of chicken, ribs, seafood, and pasta dishes. The Group’s strategy is to differentiate its restaurants by emphasizing consistently high-quality food, concentrated service, generous portions at affordable prices and a casual atmosphere suggestive of the Australian Outback.

CLS operates 44 (forty-four) restaurants altogether, in twenty different cities, being: (i) 9 (nine) in Rio de Janeiro and 1 (one) in Niterói, State of Rio de Janeiro, and 1 (one) in Vitoria, State of Espirito Santo (CLS RJ); (ii) 12 (twelve) in São Paulo, 2 (two) in Campinas, 1 (one) in Barueri, 1 (one) in São Bernado do Campo, 1(one) in São Caetano do Sul, 1(one) in São José dos Campos, 1 (one) in Ribeirão Preto, 1 (one) in Guarulhos, 1(one) in Jundiaí and 1 (one) in Osasco, State of São Paulo (CLS SP); (iii) 2 (two) in Brasília, Federal District, 1 (one) in Belo Horizonte, State of Minas Gerais, 2 (two) in Salvador, State of Bahia, 1 (one) in Goiânia, State of Goiás and 1 (one) in Recife, State of Pernambuco (CLS BSB); and (iv) 1 (one) in Porto Alegre, State of Rio Grande do Sul, 2 (two) in Curitiba, State of Paraná and 1 (one) in Florianópolis, State of Santa Catarina (CLS do Sul).

The consolidated financial statements for nine months ended September 30, 2013 were authorized for issue by the Parent Company’s management on January 10, 2014.

2.
Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements were prepared and are presented in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil, which comprise the pronouncements, interpretations and guidance issued by the Brazilian Accounting Pronouncements Committee (Comitê de Pronunciamentos Contábeis (“CPC”), which are converged to the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts. These estimates were determined based on objective and subjective factors, considering management’s judgment to determine the adequate amounts to be recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include selection of useful lives of property, fixtures and equipment and analysis of their recoverability in operations, credit risk assessment to determine the allowance for doubtful accounts, as well as analysis of other risks to determine other provisions, including those set up for contingencies. Settlement of transactions involving these estimates may result in amounts significantly different from those recorded in the consolidated financial statements due to the uncertainties inherent in the estimation process. The Group reviews its estimates and assumptions at least annually.

This interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements as of December 31, 2012.

The consolidated financial statements presented herein do not include the Parent Company’s stand-alone financial statements and are not intended to be used for statutory purposes.

The issued capital of the CLS Companies is shared primarily between PGS Consultoria, proprietors (stores’ managing partners) and JV’s (operating partners who supervise the Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Brasília and South Region stores), in accordance with their respective interests.
(2)
According to each individual partners’ association document known as “Protocolo de Entendimentos” (Memorandum of Understanding), dividends are distributed to non-controlling partners (proprietors and JV’s) based on certain criteria, such as a percentage of the pre-tax income results of their respective restaurants and supervision areas and other, being 100% of the remaining undistributed earnings of PGS Consultoria. Such dividends are recognized as compensation expense within the restaurant payroll expenses account for the period earned by the non-controlling partners. Further detail from the income statement is shown in the following table.

The financial statements of the CLS Companies are prepared for the same reporting period as the Parent Company. Accounting policies of CLS Companies have been adjusted to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group. All intra-group balances, income and expenses, unrealized gain and losses and dividends resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Capital contributions to the CLS Companies received from the non-controlling partners are recorded as long-term liabilities in the line item “non-controlling partner deposit”. Monthly payments made pursuant to the Memorandum of Understanding are paid as dividends and are recognized as compensation expense in the period earned by the non-controlling partners.

Inventory is counted at the end of every month and controlled in all stores and at the distribution center; expired inventories are disposed of immediately and recorded as expense. Inventories differences are adjusted within the month and against the cost of sales for such period, as this is a periodic inventory, everything on hand should be usable and therefore no risk of loss or expiration is expected.

Distribution of Profits - CLS Companies

Dividends paid to proprietors (stores’ managing partners) and to JVs (operating partners who supervise the Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Brasília and South Region stores) are distributed according to the criteria stated within each individual partner’s association document referred to as Memorandum of Understanding.

Partners are paid dividends according to a percentage of the after-tax income results (“ATI”) of their respective restaurants, as per their P&L statements. It is 7.5% of ATI for managing partners and 3% to 6% for operating partners. Members of top management have also received dividends based on certain monthly fixed amounts stipulated in the previous year’s budget submitted to and approved by OSI.

Based on the above and in accordance with local laws allowing actual distributions to be different than the exact amount owed to a partner, based on his/her members’ position, the CLS Companies distributed the following amounts to its partners during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

10. Commitments and contingencies

The Group is involved in tax, civil and labor lawsuits arising in the normal course of its activities. These matters are discussed at the administrative and judicial levels. Judicial deposits related to these matters are made, when applicable. The Group accrues for loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable and this assessment is carried out based on the information available and on risk factors inherent to each process, in accordance with the opinion of the Group’s legal advisors. The Group generally does not accrue for legal costs expected to be incurred with a loss contingency until those services are provided.

Based on the information of its legal advisors and on the analysis of legal procedures pending judgment and controversy tax obligation, the Group has decided to set up a provision at an amount deemed sufficient to cover probable losses arising from unfavorable outcomes of lawsuits in progress, tax obligation challenges and tax assessments. Based on the opinion from external legal advisors, the Group has decided to constitute the provision in the amount of R$ 2,470 under the scenario of adopting the new amnesty program established by the State of Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro according to State Laws 58.811/12 and 6.357/12, respectively.

The Group is questioning a matter related to the validity of the social contribution tax for intervention in the economic order (CIDE), established by Law, on the remittance of royalties. Management, supported by preliminary injunctions granted in its favor, is judicially paying this tax. The judicial deposits related to this matter amount to R$ 6,392 at September 30, 2013. The Group maintains a provision of R$ 6,289 related to this tax.

As of September 30, 2013, the Group’s external legal advisors estimate the chances of a final unfavorable outcome as “possible” in certain matters, primarily related to labor, civil and tax claims. The total possible contingencies that are uncertain at this time and could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s financial condition are R$ 8,519 as of September 30, 2013.


11.
Income tax and social contribution

CLS do Sul has elected to calculate income tax and social contribution using the “presumed profits” method. Under the “presumed profits” method, taxable income is calculated as an amount equal to different percentages of gross revenue based on the activities of the taxpayer.

Under current Brazilian tax law, the percentages of the CLS Companies’ gross revenues are 8% for calculating income tax, and 12% for social contribution. The Parent Company, CLS SP, CLS RJ, and CLS BSB calculate their income tax and social contribution using the “actual profits” method, which is based on total taxable income.

Tax loss carry forwards through September 30, 2013 relating to income tax and social contributions were approximately R$ 11,369 and R$ 13,215 respectively, comprised entirely of fiscal results of the Parent Company. These tax loss carry forwards can offset future taxable income. Brazilian tax laws restrict the offset of tax losses to 30% of taxable profits on an annual basis. These losses can be used indefinitely and are not impacted by a change in ownership of the Parent Company.

These projections indicate that future operating results will provide taxable income for CLS SP, CLS RJ and CLS BSB. The unused credits reflect the assessment of the likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset comprised of the tax loss carry forwards attributable to the Parent Company.

12.2.
Non-controlling interest (JV partners and proprietors)

According to each individual partners’ association document known as Memorandum of Understanding, dividends are distributed to non-controlling partners (proprietors and JVs) based on certain criteria, such as a percentage of the pre-tax income results of their respective restaurants and supervision areas and other components, being 100% of the remaining undistributed earnings of PGS Consultoria’s results. These dividends are effectively paid and recognized as compensation expense and are not fully determined at each CLS’s results level rather on the individual store (proprietors) or group of stores (JV partners), therefore the amount of these dividends is recognized as Operating Expense in the income statement in the period earned by the non-controlling partners.


13.
Financial instruments

The Group evaluated its financial assets and liabilities in relation to market value through available information available and appropriate evaluation methodologies. The interpretation of market data and the selection of valuation methods require extensive judgment and estimates to calculate the most appropriate realization value.

Consequently, the estimates presented do not necessarily show the amounts that may be realized in the market. The use of different market assumptions and/or methods may have a material effect on the estimated realization values.

The Group’s main financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable.

Fair value measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is a market-based measurement. To measure fair value, the Group incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, and utilizes market data to the maximum extent possible.

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable and short-term accounts payable approximate their respective book values due to the their short-term maturity.

As a basis for considering the market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, a three-tier fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair values as follows:

Level 1 - observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Group has the ability to access;

Level 2 - inputs, other than the quoted market prices included in Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 - unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market data available.

Financial instruments (Continued)

The fair value measurement of short-term investments classified as cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, in the amount of R$ 32,500 and R$ 21,471, respectively, uses inputs that fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Group is not engaged in any outstanding hedging instruments, term contracts, swap operations, options, futures, or embedded derivatives operations. Therefore, the Group has no risk related to derivatives utilization policies.

Significant market risk factors affecting the Group’s business are as follows:

Exchange rate risk

This risk arises from the possibility of the Group incurring losses because of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

The Group does not use hedging instruments to protect against exchange rate fluctuations between the Brazilian real and the US dollar.

Credit risk

This risk mainly involves the Groups’ cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Group carries out operations with highly-rated banks, which minimizes risk.

Accounts receivable are substantially generated from credit card companies resulting from sales in the restaurants. Management does not anticipate losses in the realization of such receivables.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group may not have sufficient funds to comply with their financial commitments due to the different currencies and settlement terms of their rights and obligations.

In order to mitigate liquidity risk for the Parent Company and its subsidiaries. the Group’s liquidity and cash flow is monitored on a daily basis by Management, assuring that cash flow from operations and available funding, when necessary, is sufficient to meet its commitment schedule.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that the Group incurs losses because of fluctuations in interest rates that could increase certain financial expenses related to loans and financing raised from the market. The Group’s exposure to market risks for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the bank debt and loans with related parties. Considering the Group’s debt profile, management considers the risk of exposure to interest rate variation to be insignificant.

Capital Management

Capital includes units of interest and equity attributable to the equity holders of the Parent.

The primary objective of the Group’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains sufficient capital in order to support its business and maximize member value.

Differences between the accounting practices adopted in Brazil and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America

The consolidated financial statements were prepared and are presented in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil (“BR GAAP”), which comprise the pronouncements, interpretations and guidance issued by the Brazilian Accounting Pronouncements Committee (“CPC”), which are converged to the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

BR GAAP differs, in certain significant respects, from U.S. GAAP. As of September 30, 2013, Management did not identify any significant differences that have a significant effect on either net income or members' equity.

Exhibit 99.3
BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS




On November 1, 2013, Bloomin’ Brands, Inc. (the “Company”), through its wholly-owned subsidiary Outback Steakhouse Restaurantes Brasil S.A. (“OB Brasil”) (formerly known as Bloom Holdco Participações Ltda.), completed its previously announced acquisition of a controlling interest in PGS Participações Ltda. (“PGS Par”), the Company’s former joint venture partner, in accordance with the Quota Purchase and Sale Agreement entered into on October 31, 2013 (the “Purchase Agreement”), by purchasing 80% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of PGS Par, which held a 50% interest in PGS Consultoria e Serviços Ltda. (the “Brazilian Joint Venture”) (collectively, the “Acquisition”). Prior to the Acquisition, the Company held a 50% interest in the Brazilian Joint Venture. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company now holds a 90% interest in the Brazilian Joint Venture, which operates Outback Steakhouse restaurants in Brazil.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements of Bloomin’ Brands, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2012, and as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, are based on historical consolidated financial statements of Bloomin’ Brands, Inc. and give effect to the Acquisition after applying the assumptions, reclassifications and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The historical consolidated financial statements of the Brazilian Joint Venture were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Brazil, which are converged to International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) (collectively “BR GAAP”), which differs in certain respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Necessary adjustments have been made to reconcile the historical consolidated financial statements of the Brazilian Joint Venture to U.S. GAAP. These adjustments relate primarily to differences relating to income tax contingencies.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet at September 30, 2013 gives effect to the Acquisition by the Company of the Brazilian Joint Venture as if it had occurred on September 30, 2013. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2012, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, give effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2012. The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted to give effect to estimated pro forma events that are (i) directly attributable to the Acquisition, (ii) factually supportable and (iii) with respect to the statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results of operations. In addition, to ensure timely reporting, the Company made the election to consolidate the results of its Brazilian operations on a one-month lag, effective as of the acquisition date. The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not reflect the lag.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations do not reflect the following amounts that are not expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results of operations: (i) professional fees associated with the Acquisition; (ii) gain on remeasurement to fair value of previously held equity investment in the Brazilian Joint Venture; and (iii) interest expense associated with the borrowings of $100.0 million on the revolving credit facility since the Company repaid the borrowings in full prior to December 31, 2013. Had the Acquisition occurred on January 1, 2012, these amounts would have been an aggregate gain of approximately $34.8 million. In addition, the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations do not consider reduced interest expense had the cash used in the Acquisition been applied to lower the Company’s outstanding debt obligation. Actual amounts were or will be recorded by us in the period in which these transactions are completed. The pro forma adjustments exclude the impact of the one-month reporting lag that was adopted by the Company upon acquisition and, therefore, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements reflect calendar-based periods for all presented periods. In addition, the pro forma adjustments for the Acquisition do not include any post-closing adjustments that may occur pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, which may include adjustments of the purchase price, and any such post-closing adjustments may be material.

BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS OF U.S. DOLLARS, UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED)

1.     Transaction Description

On November 1, 2013, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary OB Brasil, completed its previously announced acquisition of a controlling interest in PGS Par, the Company’s former joint venture partner, in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, by purchasing 80% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of PGS Par, which held a 50% interest in the Brazilian Joint Venture. Prior to the Acquisition, the Company held a 50% interest in the Brazilian Joint Venture. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company now holds a 90% interest in the Brazilian Joint Venture, which operates Outback Steakhouse restaurants in Brazil. The Company completed the Acquisition for total consideration of R$240.8 million (BRL) (or approximately $110.5 million) in cash. The Company financed the Acquisition primarily with borrowings of $100.0 million on its existing revolving credit facility and available cash. The revolving credit facility borrowings were subsequently repaid in full prior to December 31, 2013.

2.    Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared using U.S. GAAP and was based on the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Brazilian Joint Venture. All pro forma financial statements use the Company’s period end date and no adjustments were made for the one-month lag period that was adopted by the Company at the acquisition date.

The historical consolidated financial statements of the Brazilian Joint Venture were prepared in conformity with BR GAAP, which differs in certain respects from U.S. GAAP. Necessary adjustments have been made to reconcile the historical consolidated financial statements of the Brazilian Joint Venture to U.S. GAAP. These adjustments relate primarily to differences relating to income tax contingencies and are included in the column under the heading “Pro Forma Adjustments”.

The Acquisition will be accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under U.S. GAAP.

The historical unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Brazilian Joint Venture was prepared in Brazilian Reais and has been translated to U.S. Dollars using a rate of $0.45, which approximates the Brazilian Real conversion rate to U.S. Dollars on September 30, 2013. The Brazilian Joint Venture historical audited consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2012 and unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 have been translated to U.S. Dollars using exchange rates of $0.53 and $0.47, respectively, which approximate the average Brazilian Real conversion rate to U.S. Dollars for the applicable periods. Certain of the pro forma adjustments have been translated to U.S. Dollars using an exchange rate of $0.46, which approximates the Brazilian Real conversion rate to U.S. Dollars on November 1, 2013, the closing date of the Acquisition.

3.    Significant Accounting Policies    

Certain amounts in the historical consolidated financial statements of the Brazilian Joint Venture have been reclassified to conform to the Company’s financial statement presentation. Management will also continue to assess the accounting policies of the Brazilian Joint Venture for adjustments in addition to those reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information that may be required to conform the accounting policies of the Brazilian Joint Venture to the Company’s.

Identifiable intangible assets, net

The fair value of net intangible assets has been allocated to the following two categories: (i) reacquired franchise rights and (ii) favorable and unfavorable leases. The reacquired franchise rights will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of each restaurants’ franchise agreement, without consideration of renewal. The favorable and unfavorable leases will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term. The following table represents details of the identifiable intangible assets:

(2)
Unfavorable leases are included in Other long-term liabilities, net in the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed table shown above.

The fair values of the identifiable intangible assets were determined based on the following approach:

Reacquired franchise rights: The value assigned to the reacquired franchise rights was determined using the income approach. Projected after-tax, post-royalty expense cash flows derived from the franchise rights that were reacquired, net of capital charges, were discounted to present value. Expectations related to future restaurant performance were based on historical data, and a long-term forecast was constructed based on the Company’s financial projections and expectations. The capital charges applied serve to recognize the use of other assets in deriving value from the franchise agreement. The resulting cash flows were then discounted to present value.

Favorable and unfavorable leases: The values assigned to favorable and unfavorable leases were determined using a market approach. The variance between market rent and contract rent over the remaining lease term was discounted to present value on a location-by-location basis.

Step acquisition

A step acquisition occurs when a controlling ownership interest is gained over a period of time. Applicable accounting guidance requires that a step acquisition in which control is obtained over a business be accounted for as a business combination. The accounting guidance also requires that previously held equity interests be remeasured at fair value and any difference between the fair value and the carrying value of the equity interest held be recognized as a gain or loss on the statement of operations. The fair value assigned to the previously held equity investment in the Brazilian Joint Venture for purposes of calculating the gain or loss was determined using the income approach, based on a discounted cash flow methodology. The resulting gain on remeasurement to fair value of the previously held equity investment in the Brazilian Joint Venture in the amount of $37.0 million has been included as an adjustment to the Accumulated deficit in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet but excluded from the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations.
 
Noncontrolling interest

The Acquisition, as described in Note 1, results in a noncontrolling interest of 10% being retained by the sellers. The fair value assigned to the noncontolling interest in the Brazilian Joint Venture was determined using the income approach, based on a discounted cash flow methodology. In accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the noncontrolling interest in the Brazilian Joint Venture is subject to certain put options and call options. The accounting guidance considers these options to be embedded features within the noncontrolling interest that require the noncontrolling interest to be classified within the balance sheet as redeemable equity. The redeemable noncontrolling interest in the Brazilian Joint Venture is presented at fair value in the amount of $22.4 million and has been included as an adjustment to Mezzanine equity in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet.
