Primary and Secondary Markets
* The General Value of contracted sales (Contracted GVS) projected in this release may change due to many variables. This material fact includes forward
looking statements related to business perspectives, results estimates and, also, the growth outlook for Lopes. Such forward looking statements may be
substantially affected by changes in market conditions, government decisions, stronger competition, industry performance as well as Brazilian economy
performance, in addition to those risks presented in the documents released and filed by Lopes, consequently, they are subject to changes without previous
notice. 56
58. Lopes‟ Contracted Sales Seasonality
Two seasonality components:
• Natural variation in sales related to holidays or vacation periods over the year. The first quarter is more
significantly affected by summer vacations and the week of Carnival celebrations.
• Variations in sales stemming from the sales pipeline in the real estate development market, in which
projects launched are subject to licensing and permit requirements, which account for significant distortions
in a quarter-over-quarter comparison.
