As management was elected on 09/28/18, it is therefore not liable for 3Q18 operations and  results, and hereby releases its first report.

Firstly, over the past 40 days, our priority was to cut costs, processes and contracts, and optimize our structure. Specifically, we reduced our workforce by 50%, which will amount to R$36 million/year savings, which includes the Rio de Janeiro branch shutdown. From now on, we will concentrate our efforts solely on the region of São Paulo, Brazil’s largest market.

In addition, we proposed to our shareholders to transfer the Company's headquarters from São Paulo to São Caetano do Sul, at Gafisa’s owned property, which, besides sheltering our operations, will save R$4.7 million/year on office lease costs.

In addition to our focus on cost-cutting initiatives, the new management is pursuing innovation to Gafisa’s business model, highlighting as short-term actions: (i) the launch of Gafisa Serviços (Gafisa Services), which offers post-warranty services, house-up (customization of unit to be delivered according to customer’s needs) and rental of residential and commercial units, owned and third-party units, and (ii) the setup of an Innovation Committee, headed by Mr. Pedro Carvalho de Melo, one of our independent board members, and comprised of other four executives of the Company, representing the areas of building sites, new business, and sales. Mr. Melo is the academic coordinator of FGV/IDE's international programs and the chairman of Gafisa’s Audit Committee.

For the fourth quarter, we have already directed our efforts toward selling existing inventory. As to launches, new management will prioritize more profitable projects with higher market acceptance.

To subpsort the Company’s recovery in the upcoming years, we are analyzing funding alternatives.

Over the next few months, we will be working on the Business Plan for the next two years, which will be released to the market in due course. Our objective is to continue adjusting the Company's business model, driving solid performance which creates value for shareholders and stakeholders.

Sales

In 3Q18, gross sales totaled R$188.1 million. Lower sales volume in the period, versus 2Q18 and 3Q17, is due to: (i) heightened political uncertainty, which resulted in an economic slowdown and drop in consumer confidence and (ii) lower volume of launches in the period. It is also worth mentioning that the Vision Pinheiros project was launched on September 29, last weekend of September, with many in-progress sales negotiations that will be included in fourth quarter results. In 9M18, gross sales totaled R$887.4 million versus R$914.5 million in 9M17.

Cancellations came to R$51.7 million in 3Q18, 13.8% lower than in 2Q18, and a sharp drop of 47.3% compared to 3Q17, despite a significant volume of projects delivered in the quarter. Cancellations performance year to date also reflects this downward trend, reaching R$169.3 million in 9M18. The average monthly Cancellations decreased from R$35.1 million in 9M17 to R$18.8 million in 9M18.

The net pre-sales totaled R$136.5 million in 3Q18. In 9M18, net pre-sales came to R$718.2 million, 20% higher than in 9M17.

Sales Over Subpsly (SoS)

The inventory of finished units fell from R$499.8 million (35.8% of total inventory) in 2Q18 to R$434.2 million in 3Q18 (32.9% of total).

From the total finished units, 47.6% are commercial projects. This percentage is due to lower sales speed in this segment, which has lower liquidity.

Delivered Projects and Transfer

The Company delivered three projects with total PSV of R$346.0 million, 15.0% higher than in 3Q17. As of September 30, 2018, Gafisa was managing the construction of 19 projects, all of which are on schedule.

Over the past few years, the Company has been taking steps to improve the receivables/transfer process, aiming at maximizing the return rates on capital employed in the projects. Currently, the Company’s guideline is to conclude the transfer process of 90% of eligible units within 90 days after project delivery.

 

PSV transferred in 3Q18 climbed 69.8% to R$238.6 million quarter-over-quarter and 90.0% year-over-year, bolstered by an increase in PSV of projects delivered in the period. In 9M18, PSV transferred came to R$438.1 million, 19.6% higher than in 9M17, due to a lower PSV volume of deliveries this year.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A)

General and administrative expenses totaled R$22.3 million in 3Q18, 7.0% higher than in 2Q18. This increase

is mainly due to a provision for severance pay to the former executive board in September 2018. However, in 9M18, we saw a 9.8% decrease, in line with cost-saving measures.

In 3Q18, selling expenses were 26.5% and 9.9% lower than in 2Q18 and 3Q17, respectively, due to lower commission and launch expenses in the period. By contrast, in the 9M18 vs 9M17 comparison, higher volume of launches increased selling expenses by 15.6% to R$73.0 million.

Therefore, selling, general and administrative expenses came to R$43.0 million in 3Q18 and R$134.9 million in 9M18.

Ratings Review

S&P Global Ratings downgraded Gafisa’s rating from ‘brBBB’ to ‘brBB-’ with Gafisa under negative CreditWatch after suspending payment to its subpsliers. The downgrade was due to the Company's announcement  of temporary suspension of payments to subpsliers, aiming at reassessing its strategies; the ratings agency believes this impacts the Company’s reputation, as it reflects a weakened status of is liquidity and intensifies risks of refinancing.

The Company’s management clarifies that this suspension was temporary and to reassess internal strategies, and informs that payment to its subpsliers and contractors have resumed and remain on schedule as previously indicated.

 

Share Buyback Program

On September 28, the Company abpsroved the commencement of its Share Buyback Program.
