Annual & Sustainability Report 2017

MESSAGES ABOUT THE REPORT 4 THE CCR GROUP STRATEGY AND OPPORTUNITIES BUSINESS MODEL SERVICES TOLL ROADS URBAN MOBILITY AIRPORTS OUTLOOK Message from the CEO CCR Group made important progress towards achieving its strategic goals and growing in an officially recognized manner in 2017, while maintaining capital discipline and the integration of sustainability in all segments. We have dedicated efforts to a major project to revisit our organizational structure and therefore created four new business areas: CCR Rodovias SP, CCR Rodovias BR, CCR Mobilidade and CCR Aeroportos. This configuration will be crucial in enabling us to acquire new projects in the short and medium terms, and to make the investments that Brazil so badly needs in infrastructure, with the professionalism and commitment that mark our trajectory of almost 20 years. The teams that are part of these new areas are formed by current employees of CCR Group, who are familiar with our values and committed to overcoming new challenges. The preparation and impressive qualifications of our employees were essential in enabling us to reach this new stage. We must remain firm in the strategy of training and preparing our people so that they are ready to occupy new positions as new opportunities emerge alongside business growth. The confidence of our shareholders is another key factor that leverages our ability to start a new cycle of growth. In 2017, we raised capital for CCR Group through a new share offering that brought in R$ 4.07 billion, an important resource for maintaining the company's solidity and financial health. Financial resources are essential for the realization of investments in our concession units, and we must continue to seek more competitive options for CCR Group. CCR AutoBAn delivered the first phase of the Jundiaí Road Complex (SP) last year, three months ahead of schedule, an example of how we work to honor the commitments assumed in the concessions. In the second half of 2017, the Brazilian economy began to show signs of recovery, indicating that the country may be over one of the most serious crises in its history. The increase in productive activity, which is important for generating value in our business model, is already visible in the increase in traffic on toll roads and the reduction of unemployment. However, the resumption of economic growth still depends on other factors such as the government's ability to approve the reforms needed to adjust public spending and the comeback of the investment capacity. It is for this reason that the partnership with the private sector for the development of infrastructure is so opportune and necessary for Brazil. The growth of CCR Group therefore meets a very significant demand in the country. Our cities depend on more modern mobility systems and airports need to be modernized to amplify the flow and generation of wealth. Our way of operating and managing business serves the interests of our main stakeholders, including shareholders, grantor authorities and users. Investments made through CCR Institute bring benefits for communities and contribute to the social and economic development of the municipalities in which we are present. Our corporate governance ensures the highest level of compliance and transparency in our management, guaranteeing ethics in all our activities. Our success in implementing the strategy we have defined is therefore in line with relevant global movements such as the Global Compact principles and the achievement of targets proposed by the Sustainable Development Goals, both United Nations (UN) initiatives. With the commitment of all our employees, the greatest strength of CCR Group, we will continue to contribute to society for many more decades.
