  6. Revenues performanceUS GAAP x BR GAAP • Vale is a global company and most part of its revenues is denominated in US dollars. • In 1S07, each US$ 1,000 of revenues generated R$ 2,045.20. In 1S08, the same US$ 1,000 of revenues produced less reais, R$ 1,696.60, that is, 17% less. • Valuation of the real vs the dollar – the average exchange rate R$/US$ has moved from R$ 2,0452 in 1S07 to R$ 1,6966 in 1S08 – this explains why revenues in reais have fallen.

  7. Revenues performanceUS GAAP x BR GAAP • Only valuation of the real against the dollar would lead to reduction of our revenues in reais in R$ 5,629 billion, comparing the 1S08 against the 1S07. • In North-American accounting, the figures, free from the exchange effect, show an increase of 14.3% in the semester’s revenues.

  8. Profit performanceUS GAAP x BR GAAP • In the Brazilian accounting (BR GAAP), effect of the exchange variation over the assets amount of a Brazilian company abroad is accounted as expense (or revenue), depending on the valuation (or depreciation) of the real. • If Vale has a building in Canada amounting to US$ 1 million on 06/30/07, its amount in reais on such date was R$ 1,926 million (US$ 1 million x 1,926 R$/US$). • Since the real has been appreciated, with the exchange rate moving from R$ 1,9262/US$ on 06/30/07 to R$ 1,5919/US$ on 06/30/08, the same building, with the same amount of US$ 1 million, now has a lower amount in reais, R$ 1,591 million (US$ 1 million x 1,5919 R$/US$). ¹ Exchange rate R$/US$ on 06/30/07 equal to R$ 1,9262

  9. Profit performanceUS GAAP x BR GAAP • Thus, in accordance with BR GAAP, variation of amount for the building in reais, called “exchange variation of abroad investment”, of R$ 335 millions (R$ 1,926 million – R$ 1,551 million), is subtracted from Vale’s profit as it was an expense. • In fact nothing has changed, the building is the same, it continues to amount to US$ 1 million, no money has been withdrawn from Vale’s cash. • It is only an accounting rule.

  10. Reconciling Vale’s profit: US GAAP vs. BR GAAP • Net profit US GAAP 7.030 • (-) Exchange variation of abroad investments 2.231 • (-) Amortization of goodwill in acquisitions 367 • (-) Other adjustments 45 • Net profit BR GAAP 4.387 US$ millions 1S08

  11. Effect of the new Brazilian corporate law and CVM resolution no. 534 • Convergence for international accounting rules • Effect of the “exchange variation over abroad investments” shall not affect the profit anymore.

  12. Best risk rating • Vale gained an upgrade on its long-term corporate credit rating for BBB+, by agency Standard & Poor’s • The grade resulted from a successful capital raising of US$ 12.2 billion through a share offering • Rating upgrade reflects the more sound capital structure of the company, stated S&P

  17. Train 330 wagons • In order to maximize efficiency in logistic operations, Vale now uses trains with 330 wagons, the biggest trains in the world. • 23 new locomotives were bought, at US$ 46 million, to conduct the most long trains; • Such compositions are being operated in the Estrada de Ferro Carajás (EFC). • Greater operating flexibility, greater mobility, greater transportation capacity The train with 330 wagons is 3,5 km long, which is equal two times Av. Rio Branco - RJ

  18. Vale sets transportation line dedicated to route Brazil-Asia • Construction of 12 vessels VLOC, with 400,000 tons each (dwt), the biggest in the world • Investment of US$ 1.6 billion • Deliveries: beginning of 2011 until the end of 2012 • Total capacity of 30.2 million ton/year, equals to 30% of exports to China • Vale now has a fleet of 18 VLOC and 3 capesize

  19.
