Management report
We are proud of the continuing improvement in our results, which we believe is proof that our strategy of offering a differentiated, high quality product while relentlessly focusing on cost efficiency, is bearing fruit. We remain focused on offering the best experience in air transportation, providing punctual, exclusive services to our customers on new, modern aircraft that connect our main markets with the most convenient schedules. Our entertainment platform is the most complete and modern in Latin America with live on-board television and on-demand internet. The fleet has been retrofitted with eco-leather seats, and on-board Wi-Fi. We also offer our customers selfie check-in, GOL+Conforto seats, and an expanded menu of on-board products, while maintaining low-fare leadership.
We maintained our on-time leadership in Brazil for the 20th consecutive quarter (according to Infraero) in 1Q18: 93.7% of GOL’s flights (over 64,000 in the quarter) took off on schedule.
We expect to continually drive our efficiency and technology advantages this year, and we look forward to incorporating the new Boeing 737 MAX 8s in the second half of 2018. With a range of up to 6,500 km, the new 737 MAX 8 aircraft will allow GOL to offer non-stop flights from Brazil to anywhere in Latin America, as well as to our recently announced destinations in Florida.
In January, GOL began the sale of tickets to Miami and Orlando, its first destinations in the United States. The new service will be flown by our new Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft, and will start on November 4th of this year, with departures from Brasília and Fortaleza; these cities were chosen for their privileged geographic locations and connectivity with other GOL markets. Customers will have at their disposal all the convenience and comfort already offered on the Company's flights, including in-flight internet and entertainment, leather seats with ample leg room, and free on-board drinks and meals.
GOL was the lowest operating cost airline in the region for the 17th consecutive year, a result of our simplified, standardized fleet (lower crew costs, intelligent spare parts management and best-in-class maintenance), and our lean and productive operations with reduced fixed costs. In 1Q18, aircraft utilization was 12.9 block hours per day (a 5.2% increase over 1Q17), and our load factor increased by 0.8 pp, reaching 80.4%. Our operating efficiency and cost advantage support our position as the #1 airline in Brazil,
We continued to effectively protect the company’s margins by managing capacity, yields and hedging. In the 1Q18 compared to 4Q17 the average price of jet fuel increased by 7.4% and we increased domestic capacity by 0.8%, increased PRASK by 11.5%, and realized R$19 million of positive results through fuel hedging.
We continue to reduce our cost of financing and improve our liquidity and leverage profile. On January 30, 2018, GOL subsidiary GOL Finance priced an additional issue (re-tap offering) in the amount of US$150 million of our Senior Notes due in 2025, with a coupon of 7.0% per year. In addition, we partially acquired our Senior Notes due 2020 (through a tender offer), and paid out the redemption of our Senior Notes due 2018, 2020, 2021 e 2028. As of March 31, 2018, our net debt (ex-perpetual bonds) to LTM EBITDA ratio improved to 2.5x, and our total liquidity was R$3.1 billion.

This release contains forward-looking statements relating to the prospects of the business, estimates for operating and financial results, and those related to growth prospects of GOL. These are merely projections and, as such, are based exclusively on the expectations of GOL’s management. Such forward-looking statements depend, substantially, on external factors, in addition to the risks disclosed in GOL’s filed disclosure documents and are, therefore, subject to change without prior notice. The Company's non-financial information was not reviewed by the independent auditors.
To be consistent with industry practice, GOL discloses so-called non-GAAP financial measures which are not recognized under IFRS or U.S. GAAP, including “Net Debt”, “Adjusted Net Debt”, ”total liquidity”, "EBITDA" and EBITDAR”. The Company’s management believes that disclosure of non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors, financial analysts and the public in their review of its operating performance and their comparison of its operating performance to the operating performance of other companies in the same industry and other industries. However, these non-GAAP items do not have standardized meanings and may not be directly comparable to similarly-titled items adopted by other companies. Potential investors should not rely on information not recognized under IFRS as a substitute for the GAAP measures of earnings or liquidity in making an investment decision.

Report on the review of interim financial information
(A free translation from the original in Portuguese into English)
To
The Shareholders, Board of Directors and Officers
GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A.
São Paulo - SP
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information of GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (“Company”), identified as Company and Consolidated, respectively, contained in the Quarterly Information (ITR) for the quarter ended March 31, 2018, which comprises the balance sheet as at March 31, 2018 and the related income statement, statement of comprehensive income for the quarter, the statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the three-month period then ended, and a summary of significant accounting practices and other explanatory notes.
Company management is responsible for the preparation of interim individual financial information in accordance with the Technical Pronouncement of the Accounting Pronouncements Committee (CPC) 21 (R1) – Interim Financial Reporting and the consolidated interim financial information in accordance with CPC 21 (R1) and IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as for the presentation of these information in compliance with the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (“CVM”), applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Review Engagements (NBC TR 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. The scope of a review is significantly narrower than an audit conducted in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might have be identified in an audit. Therefore, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion on the individual and consolidated interim financial information
Based on our review, nothing came to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information included in the Quarterly Information referred to above was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21(R1) and IAS 34 applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Financial Information, consistently with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM).
10
Emphasis
Restatement of corresponding values
As mentioned in note 2.3, as a result of the adoption of the new accounting standards, CPC 45 and IFRS 15 – Revenue from contracts with costumers, the corresponding individual and consolidated amounts related to the balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 and the related interim accounting information related to the statements of income, of the comprehensive income, changes in shareholders' equity, cash flows and value added for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 presented for comparison purposes have been adjusted and are being restated as provided for in CPC 23 - Accounting Policies, Change of Estimate and Rectification of Errors and CPC 26 (R1) - Presentation of Financial Statements. Our conclusion contains no modification related to this subject.
Other matters
Statements of value added
We have also reviewed the individual and consolidated statements of value added for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, prepared under the responsibility of management, the presentation of which in the interim financial information is required by rules issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM) applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Financial Information (ITR), and as supplementary information by IFRS, whereby no statement of value added presentation is required. These statements have been subjected to the same review procedures previously described and, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that they are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the overall accompanying interim individual and consolidated interim financial information.

Notes to the interim financial information March 31, 2018 (In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except when otherwise indicated) |
Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (the “Company” or “GLAI”) is a publicly-listed company incorporated on March 12, 2004, under the Brazilian Corporate Law. The Company is a holding company of the following main subsidiaries: (i) Gol Linhas Aéreas S.A. (“GLA”), which is mainly engaged in (a) the regular and non-regular flight transportation services of passengers, cargo and mailbags, domestically or internationally, according to the concessions granted by the regulator; and (b) other activities in relation to flight transport services provided in its by-laws; and (ii) Smiles Fidelidade S.A. (“Smiles Fidelidade”, formerly Webjet Participações S.A. prior to the change in the corporate name on July 1, 2017), which mainly operates (a) the development and management of its own or third party’s customer loyalty program, and (b) sale of redemption rights of awards related to the loyalty program.
Additionally, the Company is the direct parent company of the wholly-owned subsidiaries GAC Inc. (“GAC”), Gol Finance Inc., Gol Finance, formerly Gol LuxCo S.A., and Gol Dominicana Lineas Aereas SAS (“Gol Dominicana”).
The Company’s corporate address is located at Praça Comandante Linneu Gomes, s/n, concierge 3, building 24, Jardim Aeroporto, São Paulo, Brazil.
The Company’s shares are traded on B3 S.A. - Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão (“B3”) and on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The Company adopted Level 2 Differentiated Corporate Governance Practices from the B3 and is included in the Special Corporate Governance Stock Index (“IGC”) and the Special Tag Along Stock Index (“ITAG”), which were created for companies committed to apply differentiated corporate governance practices.
GLA is highly sensitive to the economy and also to the U.S. dollar, since approximately 50% of its costs are denominated in U.S. dollar. The Company has been improving in safe levels its liquidity, operating margin and ability to respond effectively to the adverse events caused by the instability of the Brazilian economic scenario. The diligent work performed to adjust the fleet size to the economy growth and match seat supply to demand are some of the ongoing initiatives implemented to maintain a high load factor and maximize revenue per available seat kilometer. The Company maintains its solid strategy of initiatives to improve the operating result, such as the adjustment of the route network and the increased productivity per fleet aircraft. It is also worth mentioning initiatives to reduce costs through the intensive use of technology, increase liquidity and adjust its capital structure.
Moving forward with its liquidity plan, at the end of December 2017, the Company began implementing several initiatives to restructure its debt, reducing the financial cost of its debt structure. The result of the issue carried out on December 11, 2017, which raised US$500 million, and of the additional issue carried out on February 2, 2018, which raised US$150 million, at more attractive rates, was partially used to amortize the Company’s most onerous debt and will significantly reduce the financial cost as of 2018. Other initiatives are scheduled for 2018, reinforcing the Company’s commitment to reducing the financial cost in order to solidify its high-liquidity strategy.
Even in a scenario with an outlook for improvement, the Company is subject to uncertainties in the Brazilian economy and political scenario that may directly impact the effectiveness of the expected results.
Management understands that the business plan prepared, presented and approved by the Board of Directors on January 11, 2018, shows strong elements to continue as going concern.
In 2016, the Company received inquiries from Brazilian tax authorities regarding certain payments to firms that turned out to be owned by politically exposed persons in Brazil. Following an internal investigation, the Company engaged U.S. and Brazilian external legal counsels to conduct an independent investigation to ascertain the facts with regard to these and any other payments identified as irregular and to analyze the adequacy and effectiveness of the Company’s internal control and compliance programs in light of the findings of the investigation.
In December 2016, the Company entered into a leniency agreement with the Brazilian Federal Public Ministry (the “Leniency Agreement”), under which the Company agreed to pay R$12.0 million in fines and to make improvements to its compliance program. In turn, the Federal Public Ministry agreed not to raise any criminal or civil charges related to activities that are the subject to the Leniency Agreement and that may be characterized as (i) acts of administrative impropriety and related acts involving politically exposed persons or (ii) other possible actions, which at the date of the Leniency Agreement had not been identified by the ongoing investigation (any such actions possibly resulting in an increase in the fines under the Leniency Agreement). In addition, the Company paid R$4.2 million in fines to the Brazilian tax authorities related to the above-mentioned payments. The Company voluntarily informed the U.S. Department of Justice, the SEC and the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (“CVM”) of the external independent investigation and the Leniency Agreement.
21
|
Notes to the interim financial information March 31, 2018 (In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except when otherwise indicated) |
The external independent investigation was concluded in April 2017. It revealed that certain additional irregular payments were made to politically exposed persons; however, none of the amounts paid was material (individually or in the aggregate) in terms of cash flow, and none of our current employees, representatives or members of our board or Management was knowledgeable of any illegal purpose behind any of the identified transactions or of any illicit benefit to the Company arising from the investigated transactions. The Company reported the conclusions of the investigation to the relevant authorities and will keep them informed of any future developments regarding this issue, as well as keep watch on the analyses initiated by these bodies. These authorities may impose fines and possibly other sanctions to the Company.
Since 2016, the Company has taken steps to strengthen its compliance program and internal control environment, such as monitoring its relations with politically exposed persons, enhancing its procurement procedures and monitoring services provided by third parties. Reinforcing its commitment to continue improving, the Company hired specialized companies to review and improve its compliance program and internal control environment, mainly focusing on assessing fraud and corruption risks at first. In addition, at the end of 2017, the Company created the Corporate Risk and Compliance executive area by hiring an external seasoned expert who reports directly to the Chief Executive Officer and has independent access to the Board of Directors and the Statutory Audit Committee.
On July 1, 2017, in order to optimize and simplify GOL’s organizational structure, and to generate tax savings from the use of accumulated tax losses, the Company approved a corporate restructuring through the merger of Smiles S.A. and Smiles Fidelidade S.A. (“Merger”). As a result of the Merger, Smiles S.A. was dissolved and all its assets, rights and obligations were transferred to Smiles Fidelidade S.A., pursuant to articles 224, 225, 227 and 264 of Brazilian Corporation Law.
2. Approval and summary of significant accounting policies applied in preparing the interim financial information
This interim financial information was authorized for issue by Management on May 8, 2018.
The individual and consolidated interim information for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) No. 34, Accounting Pronouncement nº 21 (R1) (“CPC 21”), which deal with interim statements, and the requirements issued by the CVM, applicable to the preparation of interim information.
When preparing the interim financial information, the Company uses the following disclosure criteria: (i) regulatory requirements; (ii) the relevance and specificity of the information on the Company’s operations provided to users; (iii) the information needs of the users of the interim information form; and (iv) information from other entities in the same sector, mainly in the international market. Accordingly, Management confirms that all the material information presented in this interim financial information is being demonstrated and corresponds to the information used by Management in the course of its duties and is in accordance with the requirements issued by the CVM, applicable to the preparation of interim information.
This interim financial information was prepared based on historical cost, except for certain financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value and investments measured using the equity method.
Except for the subsidiary Gol Dominicana, the functional currency of which is the U.S. dollar, the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the Brazilian real. The presentation currency of this consolidated interim financial information is the Brazilian real.
This interim information does not include all the information or disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and it should therefore be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017, which were prepared in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil and in the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
The Company adopted CPC 48 - “Financial Instruments” (IFRS 9) and CPC 47 - “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (IFRS 15) on January 1, 2018, the effective date, resulting in the following changes to the basis of preparation of this individual and consolidated interim financial information.
22
|
Notes to the interim financial information March 31, 2018 (In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except when otherwise indicated) |
a) Trade receivables
Trade receivables are measured based on cost (net of estimated losses from doubtful accounts) and approximate their fair value, given their short-term nature. Due to the adoption of CPC 48 (IFRS 9) – Financial Instruments, the allowance for doubtful accounts is now measured using the simplified approach, which considers the adoption of a provision matrix based on historical data to measure the expected loss during the contract lifecycle, through the segmentation of the receivables portfolio into groups that have the same receipt patterns, based on the maturity dates. Additionally, the Company carries out a case-by-case analysis to assess risks of default in specific cases.
b) Financial assets and liabilities
The Company adopts CPC 48 (IFRS 9) requirements for its financial assets and liabilities and operations designated as hedge accounting. The measurement of financial assets and liabilities is based on the categories below. The subsequent measurement of a specific item depends on the classification of the instrument, which is determined at initial recognition and annually reviewed, and considers the Company’s business model for the management of assets and the analysis of contracted cash flows. Instruments comprise short-term investments, investment in debt instruments, trade receivables and other receivables, short and long-term debt, other payables and debt and derivative contracts.
Amortized cost: financial assets from which the Company’s main purpose is to obtain contractual cash flows, which represent only the payment of principal and interest, and liabilities that are measured at amortized cost based on the effective interest rate method. Monetary restatement, interest and exchange variation, less impairment losses (where applicable), are recognized as financial income or expenses in profit or loss, when incurred. The Company’s main instruments in this category are trade receivables, deposits and other receivables, short and long-term debt (including finance leases) and suppliers.
Measured at fair value through profit or loss or held for trading: interest rates, exchange variation and variations arising from the fair value measurement are recognized in profit or loss as financial income or expenses. The Company has investments classified as cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash in this category.
Derivatives: changes in interest rates, exchange rates and fuel prices expose the Company and its subsidiaries to risks that may affect their financial performance. In order to mitigate said risks, the Company contracts derivative financial instruments that may or may not be designated for hedge accounting. If they are designated for hedge accounting, they are classified as cash flow hedge or fair value hedge.
· Not designated as hedge accounting: the Company can contract derivative financial instruments not designated for hedge accounting when the Risk Management goals do not require this classification. Changes in the fair value of operations not designated as hedge accounting are booked directly in the financial result.
23
|
Notes to the interim financial information March 31, 2018 (In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except when otherwise indicated) |
· Designated as cash flow hedge: hedge future expenses against fluctuations in fuel prices and interest rates. The effectiveness of said fluctuations is estimated based on the analysis of the economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument. Effective fair value variations are booked in equity under “Other comprehensive income” until the hedged revenue or expense is recognized in the same line of the statement of income in which said item is recognized. The ineffectiveness identified in each reporting period are recognized in the financial result. When designating the intrinsic value of options as a hedging instrument, the Company recognizes the aligned time value of the options designated in equity, recognizing it in profit or loss in accordance with the characteristic of the hedge relationship. Deferred taxes on hedge transactions are recorded in “Other comprehensive income, net”, only when the tax credits are expected to be realized.
Hedge accounting is likely to be discontinued prospectively when: (i) the derivative instrument matures or is sold, terminated or executed; (ii) the hedged item is unlikely to be realized; (iii) it no longer fulfills the criteria for qualification, or there is no longer an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument. If the operation is discontinued, any gains or losses previously recognized under “Other comprehensive income” and accrued in equity until that date are recognized in profit or loss when the transaction is also recorded in profit or loss. When the transaction is unlikely to occur, gains or losses accrued and deferred in equity are immediately booked in profit or loss.
Derecognition and write-off of financial assets and liabilities: the Company only writes off a financial item when the contractual rights and obligations of the cash flows arising from this item expire, or when it transfers substantially all its risks and benefits to a third party. If the Company does not transfer or retain substantially all the risks and benefits together with the ownership of the financial item, but continues to control or maintain an obligation regarding said object, it should recognize the interest held and the respective liability based on the amount payable. If it retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the transferred financial asset, the asset will continue being recognized by the Company.
c) Revenues
The Company’s main source of revenue comes from domestic and international passenger flight transportation, as well as the respective additional services related to fulfilling this performance obligation.
Nature of goods and services
Air transportation services consist of selling airline tickets that grant passengers the right to be transported in the contracted route. Subject to conditions envisaged in the contracted fare, between the moment the ticket is purchased and the actual flight, customers may alter the services previously contracted, as well as add additional services that improve customers’ experience while using the Company’s services. Additional services include revenues related to flight transportation, such as: excess baggage, baggage allowance, pets in the cabin, unaccompanied minor services, special seats (Gol+ Conforto) and priority check-in, boarding and baggage handling, among others. In addition to additional services, the Company also charges penalty fees related to air transportation, such as: rebooking, cancellation, no-show and refund fees.
The Company’s fare classes have specific characteristics that change according to the type of flight and include additional services and the exemption of or reduction in cancellation, no-show and rebooking fees, among other benefits, pursuant to the applicable commercial policy. The Company charters aircraft as a special service for certain customers. The time, date and route of the flights are determined by the customers. The Company also offers customers paid access to a VIP lounge in the country’s main airports, as well as sales on board.
In addition, the Company transports cargo and packages of several products, such as: animals, documents, internet purchases and perishables, among others. The type of transportation changes according to customers’ needs and the item transported (Express, Standard or Special Boarding).
The Smiles Program is a loyalty program, whose purpose is to increase customer loyalty by granting mileage credits to its members through the acquisition of airline tickets, the use of credit cards and purchases made in its extensive network of retail partners, among other partnerships. The Company also offers members Miles Money, a product that allows members to combine miles and money to redeem rewards, such as airline tickets, Shopping Smiles products, hotel reservations and car rentals, among others. There is also the Smiles Club, through which members accumulate miles according to the contracted plan.

Performance obligation
The transportation of passengers is a performance obligation for the Company, which, in turn, is entitled to the proceeds for the contracted service. Tickets sold but not yet used are recorded under “Advance ticket sales” and represent deferred revenue of tickets sold to be used on a future date. This revenue is recognized when passengers use the tickets. Customers may not show up for their flights (no-show) or cancel previously booked flights, and, according to their fare class, be entitled to a residual amount, corresponding to the total amount of the booking minus the cost of the rebooking. The balance will remain as credit for the customers, until they request a refund or rebook their flight within one year as of the original booking.
The Company has codeshare and interline agreements with the main global airline companies. In situations when the Company is the party responsible for fulfilling the performance obligation, revenue is recognized based on the gross value of the transaction (price of the ticket to the final customer), and in situations when the Company is the agent, revenue is recognized based on the net value of the transaction (sale price less the amount payable to the partner company).
Additional services and penalty fees related to flight transportation are recognized when flight transportation services are provided to customers. Revenues arising from cargo shipment, charter services, sales on board and the VIP lounge are recognized when the service is performed and the Company fulfills its respective performance obligations. The value of each performance obligation is directly allocated to the services offered, based on the individual price of each service.
The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the moment they are received, due to the offer of installment payment options to customers.
The obligation generated by the issue of miles is measured based on the price at which miles are sold to airline and non-airline partners of Smiles, classified as the fair value of the transaction. Revenue from the redemption of third-party goods and services is recognized when miles are redeemed by the members of the Smiles Program, for the net amount of costs directly related to the acquisition of those goods and services. The Company acts as an agent in the fulfillment of its performance obligation of redeeming miles in exchange for third-party goods or services, given that it does not have inventory risk before transferring the goods and services to the program's members. From a consolidated perspective, the revenue recognition cycle related to miles from the Smiles program exchanged for flight tickets is only complete when the passengers are effectively transported, and the amount corresponding to the miles redeemed in exchange for GLA flight tickets is included in the balance of advance ticket sales before the flight occurs.
The Company records under assets the commission paid to travel agencies and credit card companies for selling airline tickets. This expense is only recorded when the respective air transportation revenue is recognized.
Significant judgments
Breakage is the statistical calculation, based on historical figures, of issued tickets or accumulated miles that expired without being used, i.e. tickets acquired by passengers or miles accumulated by members of the Smiles Program that are likely to expire. Airline tickets expire 12 months after the ticket is booked. According to the Smiles Program, all miles in the customers’ accounts are cancelled after 36 months, with the exception of Ouro and Diamante (Gold and Diamond) customers, whose miles expire after 48 and 120 months, respectively. Smiles Club miles expire after 120 months.
The Company periodically updates breakage balances in order to reflect the behavior of the expired tickets.

(*) These entities were created solely to act as an extension of the Company’s operations or which represent rights and/or obligations established solely to meet the Company’s needs. In addition, they do not have an independent management structure and are unable to make independent decisions. The assets and liabilities of these companies are consolidated line by line in the Parent Company’s interim information.
a) Issued by the IASB, not effective until the date of this interim information and have not been early adopted by the Company:
IFRS 16 – Leases
In January 2016, the IASB issued the final version of “IFRS 16 – Leases”, which establishes the principles for recognition, measurement and disclosure of lease operations. IFRS 16 will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. Although the adoption is permitted by the IASB on January 1, 2018, local regulatory requirements issued by the CVM do not allow the adoption before the effective date of this standard. IFRS 16 requires that, for the majority of leases, the lessor will record an asset related to the right of use of the leased item, and a liability related to the lease. It is expected that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, with the potential increase in assets representing the right of use of the leased item and a corresponding liability, since 89 out of 118 of the Company’s aircraft are currently accounted for as operating leases. The Company will continue assessing the impacts from the adoption of the new standard and will disclose additional information as the analyses are concluded.

IFRIC 23 – Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments
In June 2017, the IASB issued IFRIC 23, which clarifies the application of requirements in IAS 12 “Income Taxes” when there is uncertainty over the acceptance of income tax treatments by the tax authority. The interpretation clarifies that, if it is not probable that the tax authority will accept the income tax treatments, the amounts of tax assets and liabilities shall be adjusted to reflect the best resolution of the uncertainty. IFRIC 23 will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, and the Company does not expect significant impacts from the adoption of this standard.
b) Standards applicable to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018:
IFRS 9 (CPC 48) – Financial Instruments
In July 2014, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued the final version of “IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments”, which replaces “IAS 39 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” and all previous versions of IFRS 9. The standard introduces new requirements for classification and measurement, impairment and hedge accounting. IFRS 9 will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. The Company adopted this standard on the effective date. This standard must be applied retrospectively; however, it is not mandatory to fully present comparative information. The adoption of IFRS 9 did not affect the classification and measurement of the Company’s financial assets.
Due to the adoption of this standard, the Company now measures the allowance for doubtful accounts based on expected losses instead of incurred losses. The Company used the practical expedient provided for in the standard and applied the simplified model to the measurement of the expected loss during the contract lifecycle, which considers historical data to determine the expected loss, through the segmentation of the receivables portfolio into groups that have the same behavior patterns, based on the maturity dates. IFRS 9 was applied retrospectively; however, it did not impact the comparative periods presented. Due to the adoption of expected losses for the allowance for doubtful accounts, the Company recognized the difference between the previous book balance and the book value at the beginning of the period, as an adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated losses (R$1,714), net of tax effects.
The IFRS 9 requirements for hedge accounting were applied prospectively. The main impact is related to the documentation of strategy policies, which now have more specific and detailed descriptions of the transactions and instruments designated as hedge accounting.
IFRS 15 (CPC 47) – Revenue from Contracts with Customers
This standard establishes a new constant five-step model to be applied to all contracts with customers, in accordance with the entity’s performance obligations. The Company adopted the new standard on the date it became effective, as of January 1, 2018, using the full retrospective method. The main impacts from the adoption of this standard are as follows:

Notes to the interim financial information March 31, 2018 (In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except when otherwise indicated) |
Ancillary revenue: comprises all revenue related to flight transportation services. These revenues were assessed and classified as “related to the main service”, and will be recognized only when the flight transportation service is provided. These revenues are now recorded under “Passenger”, instead of under “Other revenue”.
Mileage program: the Company will now present in the statement of income revenue from mileage redemption under the Smiles Fidelidade Program as “agent”, and will recognize gross revenue from reward redemption net of the respective variable direct costs related to the availability of goods and services to its members.
Restatement of previous period
The adoption of IFRS 15 - “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” impacted the figures for the period ended March 31, 2017 and year ended December 31, 2017, as previously disclosed by the Company.
On December 31, 2017, the adoption of this standard had an impact in the amount of R$19,575 on the consolidated statement of financial position in “Advance ticket sales”, against the “Accumulated losses” line under equity, related to ancillary revenues whose timing of recognition changed. In the parent company statement of financial position, the adoption of this standard increased the “Provision for loss on investment” by the same amount.
As of March 31, 2017, the consolidated statement of income was impacted due to: (i) the reclassification of R$135,265 in ancillary revenue from “Other revenue” to “Passenger” in the subsidiary GLA; and (ii) the additional recognition of R$2,207 in ancillary revenue, whose timing of recognition changed. The impact on the parent company statement of income led to an increase by the same amount in the “Equity results” line.
Due to the classification of Smiles Fidelidade as an agent, the consolidated statement of income, excluding transactions with GLA, was impacted by R$55,970 as of March 31, 2017, due to the reclassification of variable direct costs from “Cost of services provided” to “Mileage revenue”, with no impact on the parent company statement of income.
The tables below show the adjustments per item and for each restated line of the statement of financial position and the consolidated statement of income, excluding the lines that remained unchanged. Consequently, the result, subtotals and totals show only the impacts of the changes made, as follows:
