CONTRACTED SALES

In 2022, Contracted Net Sales totaled a PSV of BRL 3.0 billion (BRL 2.4 billion % Company), a growth of 23% compared to the net PSV contracted in 2021. Once again, Direcional set its best year in terms of Net Sales in the history.

In 4Q22, Net Sales reached BRL 694 million (BRL 551 million % Company), representing a 4% increase over 4Q21 and an 18% decrease over 3Q22. It is worth noting that the Brazilian elections and the World Cup took place throughout the 4Q22, events that had a significant impact on sales in the period. The first half of the quarter presented smaller numbers when compared to the average of the rest of year. It was possible to notice a significant increase in sales after those events, that returned to normal levels and December was the best month of the quarter in terms of sales, even considering the seasonal effects of this month usually impacted by the festive period and year-end holidays. It is worth highlighting, as an example, that considering only the period from December 15th, sales totaled BRL 209 million.

Considering the sales mix in the period, the Direcional segment accounted for BRL 489 million (BRL 398 million % Company), equivalent a 70% of total sales. Riva's segment was responsible for BRL 207 million (BRL 154 million % Company), 30% of the PSV sold by the Group in 4Q22.
