consequent capital needs.
As shown on Exhibit 1, typical working capital exposure to an average project should
hover between 20-30% of a project’s potential sales value (PSV). This is only possible
due to the use of construction financing, which allows companies to finance on average
70% of the cost of the building. So far, the return on newly developed projects has been
quite high on an IRR or NPV perspective. However, this return is only assured by the
project delivery, which is tied to managing correctly the cash flow.

Our cash flow exposure exercise depends on the companies being able to get financing to
reduce their own cash exposure to projects. A substantial stake of the capital Brazilian
banks are obliged to invest in real estate projects goes in the form of construction
financing. On Exhibit 2, we show the difference between a typical project cash flow
leveraged by construction financing and another one without the line.

As the accounting for homebuilders does not help much our analysis, distorting financial
statements, especially given the high growth experienced over the last 2 years, we have
decided to make a simple adjustment to reported book value for the companies: we
added the backlog profits. The recognition of such profits is dependable only on building
and delivery. At this point, we think it is fair to assume sold apartments will be delivered.

As with PE ratios, Price-to-Book value analysis in real estate also shows some
inconsistency. First, we assume that the average project return between different
companies is similar. In addition, we remind investors that entry barriers in real estate
are relatively low, thus, exaggerated premiums are not sustainable in the long run, even
when a liquidity premium/discount is considered.

5. Company Outlooks
Rossi Residencial: TP-YE08 R$65.00, 45.7% upside potential in USD
As a consequence of one of the best cash flow outlooks going forward, we are placing
Rossi among our top picks in the sector, being the company our preferred name among
the most liquid stocks in the sector.
We are raising our TP to R$65.00 from R$59.00 on the back of higher launching
estimates, to which working capital needs are almost completely funded by construction
financing.
The stock’s recent 13% correction, which we perceive as linked to fears of an upcoming
follow-on offer by Rossi after Cyrela’s equity issue announcement, was unjustified.
However, should such a deal come up, investors should note the proceeds will probably
be invested in new projects, thus, with expectation to create value.
We currently see Rossi trading at a 10.3x PER09E vs. our average of 9.2x for the sector.
On top of being one of the most liquid names in the sector, and having a proven track
record as well as fair future cash flow outlook, we believe the stock deserves some
premium to both Cyrela and Gafisa.

MRV: TP-YE08 R$55.00, 51.1% upside potential in USD
We are also placing MRV among our top picks in the sector on the back of an interesting
growth-adjusted valuation and, in our view, an attractive entry point created recently by
the 20% drop in stock price since early December.
We disagree with the criticisms out on the street about the company’s aggressive growth
plans. As MRV benefits from the use of special credit lines targeted to low-income
developers by Caixa Economica, the company enjoys a comfortable cash flow position
going forward.
MRV shares currently trade at a 8.9x PER09E, a 7% discount over the first-tier group
composed by Rossi, Cyrela and Gafisa. On a growth-adjusted basis, MRV trades at PE09-
to-growth of 0.07x versus an average of 0.25x for Brazilian homebuilders.
We reiterate our positive view on the company and on the quality of its management,
which has potential to surprise the market going forward not only by over-delivering
results but also due to its search for innovative credit solutions to its clients. For example,

6. MRV recently led the pack in signing a MOU with Caixa Economica in order to gain scale in
low-income credit approval and grant financing for 12,000 units in 2008, a move quickly
followed by its competitors.
Main changes to our model were the inclusion of the revised launching estimates for 2008
and 2009 and modeling of the SFH financing. Besides, as this report was being written,
we had to stop the press in order to account for the fact that the company beat its 2007
estimates. Our DCF-model points to a Dec 08 TP of R$55.00/share, implying a 51.1%
potential upside in USD and therefore a BUY rating for the stock.

Cyrela: TP-YE08 R$30.00, 14.9% upside potential in USD
After incorporating the most recent launchings guidance and including the SFH leverage
into our model, we are increasing our YE08 TP to R$29.00/share from R$26.00/share and
downgrading Cyrela to NEUTRAL from BUY. At this point we prefer to take a more
cautious stance concerning Cyrela, based on our estimates for the company’s cash flow
for the coming years.
Despite having a substantial amount of receivables, which could offset its funding needs,
our analysis suggests that the company should direct most of the resources from recently
announced debt and equity issues to comply with the working capital needs for the
intended R$13.5 billion in launchings over 2008 and 2009.
Besides the working capital management factor, the overhang created by the new equity
issue announcement, the third since September 2005, reinforce our view.
We see Cyrela shares, currently trading at 10.7x PER09E, at premium to both Rossi and
Gafisa. However, at this point we believe Rossi deserves a premium over Cyrela as it is in
better shape to face its working capital needs going forward.

Gafisa: TP-YE08 R$37.00, 16.5% upside potential in USD
Our revised TP of R$37.00/share for Gafisa, up 12% from our previous TP of
R$33.00/share, is a result of increased launchings guidance and fine tuning to our model.
Nonetheless, we are downgrading Gafisa shares to NEUTRAL from BUY on the back of the
same conservative stance we applied to Cyrela. Our analysis indicates Gafisa should need
between R$350-R$450 million in additional funding, besides leveraging through SFH
construction financing, to provide for its working capital needs.
Additionally, we are still waiting to see concrete results arising from the company’s new
business lines Fit and Bairro Novo, added to Alphaville’s acquisition. We currently see
Gafisa stocks trading at a 10.6x PER09E, 15% above the average of the companies under
our coverage.

8. Tecnisa: TP-YE08 R$20.00, 96.5% upside potential in USD
Tecnisa stocks continue to be among the most discounted within our coverage universe.
Against the market, the company was able to deliver 2007 launchings. This piece of news
came out at the very end of the year and we believe it was overlooked by most of the
market. The fact was also overshadowed by the pessimistic sentiment that has recently
pushed market indices downward.
As to the changes to our model, besides modeling of SFH construction financing, we
incorporated the latest launchings guidance provided by the company. We also raised our
discount rates to reflect the stock’s lower liquidity.
Despite the higher discount rate, we still see the shares trading at a 52% discount to our
Dec 08 target price of R$20.00/share. As described above, investing in Tecnisa is also
attractive if we think in terms of P/ Adjusted Book Value ratio, trading at 1.77x vs. an
average of 2.59x for the companies under our coverage. It is also important to mention
that the company has a substantial amount of receivables which could help to cover the
company’s capital needs. Therefore, we are maintaining our BUY rating for the stocks.

Klabin Segall: TP-YE08 R$33.50, 148% upside potential in USD
Among the less liquid names, Klabin Segall is the most discounted stock under our
coverage universe. The company had its ups and downs to manage and deliver expected
launchings growth during 2007 and we believe current prices more than reflect those
issues. Nevertheless, we expect a more smooth string of launchings going forward,
increasing results visibility, which we expect to translate in some share price recovery.
Currently trading at 5.7x PER09E, a 38% discount to the sector average, stocks are
attractive not only on a PER basis. Investors looking for deep value, the shares are also
trading at almost without any premium to adjusted book value multiple, and 43%
discounted to the sector average.
In addition, we expect to see some more of the innovative projects Klabin Segall became
known for executing successfully. For example, during 2008 and 2009 the company plans
to develop an integrated complex of commercial and middle income residential project in
Santo André, besides applying its revitalization experience to launch a 2nd home project in

As part of our revision of Company’s valuation model, besides including higher launching
guidance for ’08 and ’09, we analyzed carefully its working capital management, not only
including SFH leverage but also the construction and sales speed curves.
Company trades at a 7.8x PER09E versus Tecnisa’s and Klabin Segall’s respective 5.2x
and 5.7x multiples and the average of 9.2x for homebuilders under our coverage. On a
Price-to-Adj Book Value basis, Company negotiates at 2.85x, slightly above the 2.59x
average for companies under our coverage.
Company shares are currently trading at premium to Tecnisa and Klabin Segall, where we
see more upside on a relative basis. Thus, despite a favorable valuation vis-à-vis the
more liquid names, at this point, we prefer to look for deep value and stick to Tecnisa and
Klabin Segall.
Our DCF TP for Company is R$55.00/share for YE08. After roughly 21% decline in share
prices since early December, we are upgrading Company to BUY from NEUTRAL.
