    (1) Net revenue excludes construction revenue.

    2 Same-basis figures exclude: (i) the non-recurring effect of SPVias adherence to PERT in 4Q17, of R$97.8 million on the financial result and R$139.7 million on net income; (ii) ViaQuatro, which became a subsidiary in 2Q17; (iii) ViaRio, in which CCR's stake
     has increased from 33.33% to 66.66% since 2Q17, in profit and proforma comparisons, in addition to the items previously mentioned.

    (3) Calculated by adding net revenue, construction revenue, cost of services and administrative expenses.

    4 The adjusted EBIT and EBITDA margins were calculated by dividing EBIT and EBITDA by net revenue, excluding construction revenue, as required by IFRS.

    5 Calculated excluding non-cash expenses: depreciation and amortization, provision for maintenance and the recognition of prepaid concession expenses.

    6 LTM 4Q17 adjusted EBITDA includes non-recurring effects of the acquisition of stakes in ViaQuatro and ViaRio (R$548.1 million). Excluding these effects on EBITDA, the Net Debt/EBITDA ratio came to 2.6x (2.5x in proforma figures) in December 2017.
