3Q14 EARNINGS RELEASE
Message from Management to Shareholders and Capital Market Agents
Dear Sirs,
Paranapanema Management presents the Company’s Management Report and the Consolidated Quarterly
Information for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 (3Q14), including comments on the Company’s performance.
Paranapanema 2018 Project
In the beginning of the second half of the year, we kicked-off Paranapanema 2018 Project (PMA 2018 or Project)
which sets a roadmap to increase earnings in a sustainable manner, and consequently increase the Company’s
value through short and medium-term structured actions.
PMA 2018 has been created given the observed opportunities to improve processes, people and operational margin
management.
One of PMA 2018 objectives is to redesign the Company business processes to improve earnings forecast and
capital employment levels. The implementation of a strong budget driven culture and objective criteria to manage
expenditures is of fundamental importance to maximize earnings potential. We believe that by implementing a culture
of excellence in management and processes, with strong focus on execution, we are strengthening the conditions to
sustain the value creation to our shareholders.
Management strategy is to maximize shareholders value through four key drivers (i) installed capacity utilization, (ii)
cost efficiency, (iii) commercial penetration, and (iv) asset productivity.
Capacity utilization at Paranapamena is highly correlated with smelter availability at Dias d’Ávila. In this context,
preventive maintenance is a top priority to keep operations up-and-running. Thus, we are implementing a daily
scheduled maintenance system to increase confidence on critical equipment. This model is based on best-in-class
industrial players. The Primary Copper production is recovering with higher volumes.
Cost efficiency will increase the Company’s competitiveness and profitability. Implementing new cost management
processes and reducing outsourcing will allow us to reach the expected results. We are shaping our organization to
be fast and lean, eliminating low productivity operations, merging structures, and reviewing existing contracts.
In order to increase commercial penetration, the Company is reorganizing its sales processes, focusing on clients,
value adding, and simplification of product lines.
Increasing asset productivity is a target to be reached by lowering Inventories and Fixed Assets amounts. We
continue our journey towards reducing Inventories levels. In 3Q14 there was a 16% volume reduction. Another
initiative is to enhance the risk-return analysis and prioritization of Capex projects according to expected yields
criteria.
The results of these four key drivers will be perceived in better operational results and lower need for operating
assets, thus increasing the Return on Invested Capital index, which has become the key decision making driver for
our Management.
To deliver all initiatives we rely on a newly formed group of professionals, comprised of a renewed Board of Directors
and Officers, and of a technically improved team of managers.
In July/14 we hired Galeazzi & Associados (G&A), a renowned consulting firm with relevant experience in the
initiatives that we are undertaking at Paranapanema. G&A will participate in our operations for 12 months, identifying
and helping our managers to deliver the gains foreseen in PMA 2018.
In October/14 the Executive Office and G&A presented to the Board of Directors its diagnosis and action plan, to
capture the identified gains. Another important step that is starting now is the “Zero-Base Budget” process, which will
help us to reduce spending and increase productivity of operational assets by implementing a stricter budgeting

3Q14 EARNINGS RELEASE
culture. On 2Q15 G&A will review its diagnosis and will leave Paranapanema at the beginning of 3Q15, when a new
culture of management excellence is to be implemented in the Company.
In order to allow our shareholders and the market to follow the evolution of PMA 2018, we present the following table
with the main KPIs we will concentrate our efforts on improving:

Capex trend, maintenance plan and return thresholds for future projects to benefit value
creation process
Over the past four years, Paranapanema entered an intense Capex cycle, investing in the expansion, of (i) additional
smelting capacity from 220kton to 280kton per year, (ii) a new Tubes plant with annual capacity of 30 kton, and (iii)
wiring capacity at Dias d’Ávila from 18 kton to approximately 52 kton a year in 2011.
Note: (E) - Estimate
The main CapEx project at this moment is related to the Sulfuric Acid plant at Dias d’Ávila (BA), which has reached
the end of its operational life. This new sulfuric acid plant are being built at the same place as the existing one and is
part of our recently revised-down CapEx plan to 2014, from R$194 million to R$103million. We expect to commission
the plant in the 1H15.
Currently our installed capacity availability presents opportunity to grow our volumes without investments in new
capacity. Our focus is to maximize productivity of the Company’s existing assets by increasing production volumes
using the same level of resources, and we do not anticipate the need of major additional capacity for the coming
years. Our annual CapEx plan should be equivalent to the annual depreciation rate, currently around R$120 million,
while this capacity availability remain comfortable.
New investments are decided upon a strict decision process based on criteria such as strategic alignment and
prioritization, return on investment, Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Net present value versus weighted average cost of
capital, funding structure, and payback.
With higher capacity utilization, aligned with adequate CapEx maintenance to existing assets and capital discipline
for future projects, Paranapanema starts a new era of positive cash flow generation, while increasing its competitive
advantages. To achieve an operational level of excellence and to maximize the Company’s value is an important
step to explore complementary businesses in the future, bringing synergies and additional gains to our shareholders.
Business Environment – Copper Market
Related to the copper market, we observed global cathode demand sustained by moderate growth in Chinese market,
with attractive prices and limited supply by other smelters.
Macroeconomic data influenced the Copper price, maintaining the decline trajectory on 3Q14 (-3.1% vs. 2Q14).
6
3Q14 EARNINGS RELEASE
According with Wood Mackenzie, consumers remain tentative on the full year outlook due to on-going geopolitical
tensions, with demand expected to decelerate to 4.6% in second half of 2014, after posting strong 7.6% growth in
H1. However, moderate economic growth, more affordable copper prices, and the continued limited availability of
high grade scrap have been major factors supporting cathode demand in 2014.
At the end of 3Q14, spot TCRCs remained significantly higher than current benchmark terms for 2014 of $92/t &
9.2c/lb. LME week, held at the second half of October, marked the beginning of negotiations for next year TCRCs.
Traditionally, the spot buying demand amongst Chinese smelters is significantly lower in September. An average
TCRCs of $115/t & 11.5c/lb is believed to be the spot buying terms from Chinese smelters for clean concentrates
during the month. The mine to trader market also reported TCRCs of $110/t & 11c/lb for clean concentrate during
September.
Brazil
The macroeconomic environment in Brazil remained challenging during 3Q14. We prepared the Company to face
these market conditions in the past months by assuming at the end of 2Q14, a cautious posture when dealing with
business related to the Brazilian economy. The way we found to grow was to export the surplus of production for
which there was no demand in Brazil.
7
3Q14 EARNINGS RELEASE
Industrial Survey data released by CNI – Confederação Nacional da Indústria (National Industry Confederation) on
October 23, 2014, indicate a slight improvement in the industrial sector in September compared to previous months,
but still not enough to improve expectations for year-end.
The Brazilian Construction Sector, an important segment to Paranapanema, presented in August its worst results
since November 2005, according with the 60th Sondagem Nacional da Indústria da Construção Civil (National Civil
Construction Industry Research) published by the SindusCon-SP and Fundação Getulio Vargas on October 7, 2014.
It is a reflex of the negative perception in the sector for the coming months.
Data from the Economic Survey of ABINEE - Associação Brasileira da Indústria Elétrica e Eletrônica (Brazilian
Association of Electrical and Electronics Industry) published on October 21, 2014 show that in September the
Electronics sector posted better results than in the last three months, even though the industry has not yet retaken
significant growth.
Internal Environment
Measures taken to normalize the Company's Primary Copper production show the first results in 3Q14, when we
produced 60 thousand tons (annualized production of 240 thousand tons out of the total capacity of 280 thousand
tons), 7.2% growth when compared to last quarter. Production volumes also shows recovery to historical levels and
evolution of the utilization of installed capacity of the Dias d’Ávila plant. This recovery is due to the adoption of a new
preventive maintenance model, from which we are already benefiting from preventing unscheduled maintenance
stoppages and greater smelter availability, reflecting in greater installed capacity usage during 3Q14. The constant
evolution of industrial uptime at the Dias d’Ávila Primary Copper Unit is focus of Paranapanema’s Management, but
we cannot rule out the event of other unscheduled maintenance stoppages until the preventive maintenance program
is fully implement in all critical equipment. Management is fully committed in delivering this process by 1H15.
The Copper Products production reached 62 thousand tons in 3Q14, a 3.5% reduction to 2Q14, due to the weak
business environment in Brazil, main destination of the sales of Laminates and Wires, the main affected products.
The greater production of Primary Copper contributed to a total Sales Volume of 71 thousand tons, a 12.4% growth
over 2Q14.
We continue to make progress on Transformation Cost per ton sold, which index amounted 9.6% less when
compared to 2Q14. To achieve this performance we are increasing the Management for us on two areas: (i) capacity
usage and (ii) productivity, at the same time as creating a culture of greater operational efficiency and leaner
organization.

Additionally, the Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A) were 9% lower over 2Q14. It’s important to
highlight that over the quarter there were non-recurring (one-off) events, specially labor contingency provisions,
amounting to R$16 million. When comparing SG&A excluding non-recurring items, the improvement is even better,
a reduction of 31.3% from R$36 million on 2Q14 to R$25 million on 3Q14.
8
3Q14 EARNINGS RELEASE
Throughout the year there was an important change regarding non-recurring items. On the first 9 months of 2014
non-recurring expenses negatively impacted our EBITDA on R$86 million, mainly related to the Partial Closure of
Capuava and Poland Project assets write-off. During 3Q14 significant amounts related to lawsuits were recovered,
positively impacting both Other non-recurring Revenues and Expenses (R$13 million) and Financial Income and
Expenses (R$ 54 million).
Another area of attention has been – and will continue to be – the management of invested capital, especially
Inventories and Recoverable Taxes. For the second consecutive quarter, there was a reduction on both our
Inventories and Recoverable Taxes level. Since the beginning of our Stock Short program on 4Q13, Inventories were
reduced by 28% or R$533 million (September/14 vs. September/13). Recoverable Taxes reduction reaching R$148
million (September/14 vs. March/14). We still see room for additional improvement in our operations, which will benefit
further reduction on Inventories cycle and lower Recoverable Taxes balance.
The Company Management remains focused on promoting initiatives to expand the usage of installed capacity, sales
volume and premiums, without losing sight of the goals of reducing spending and invested capital, thus aiming to
improve the return on invested capital.

Sales Volume of By-products on 2Q14 and 3Q13 w ere adjusted to include all By-products (Sulfuric Acid, Anodic Slime, Slag, Oleum and Revert)
Primary Copper sales volume increased by 43.6%, to 22 thousand tons, due to increased industrial availability, which
allowed greater production, as well as the execution of the finished products inventory reduction plan. Exports had
an important role in implementing this strategy, since the Brazilian market remains at a low level of activity.
Copper Product sales increased 2.5% to 48 thousand tons. This performance is primarily due to increased sales of
Tubes and growth in Toll of Rods, which offset the loss of Wires sales due to market contraction, particularly in the
civil construction, automotive and energy distribution segments.
By-products posted a 9.6% increase in sales volume, reaching 283 thousand tons, due to the sales of Sulfuric Acid
(+0.3%), Anodic Slime (+24.9%), Revert (a By-product rich in copper and of which there were no sales on 2Q14) and
Slag (+19.1%).

3Q14 EARNINGS RELEASE
Sales Volume per Market
The Brazilian Market (DM) absorbed 69.3% of the sales in the quarter, 49 thousand tons (including Toll) and 30.7%
or 22 thousand tons of the Company’s sales were to the Export Market (EM). Increased EM sales are attributed to
(i) the Company’s strategy to export the excess of Cathodes not absorbed at DM, (ii) sales of Anodic Slime, which is
always exported and was sold well above historical levels in the 3Q14 and (iii) export of excess inventories of Revert.
Copper and Exchange Rate Quotes
The Company’s prices are based on the Copper settlement price on the London Metal Exchange (LME) in US-Dollars
(USD).
The LME price at the end of 3Q14 was lower than the 2Q14 closing price, whilst the average LME price in 3Q14 was
3.0% greater than last quarter, reaching USD6,992/t. Over the quarter, the average USD exchange rate was BRL
2.2654/USD; 1.6% above the 2Q14 average of BRL 2.2296/t.

3Q14 Net Revenues totaled R$1,238 million; a 13.6% increase over 2Q14, due an increase in Exports of Primary
Copper and By-products.
Primary Copper Revenues increased 49.7%, reaching R$378 million in the quarter, primarily due to increased export
volumes. Domestic Market represented 42.9% of the Primary Copper Revenues, below historical levels, reflecting
the deterioration of Brazilian demand due to a slowed economy. 57.1% of Primary Copper Revenues came from the
Export Market, above historical levels, due to excess production available for sale and to Brazilian economic
momentum. While not strategic, 3Q14 exports demonstrate the Company’s ability to use the EM to absorb surplus
Brazilian demand.
Copper Products Revenues reached R$688 million, posting a 10.7% retraction over 2Q14. The 31.6% (R$56 million)
increase in Bars, Profiles, Wires, Laminates, Tubes and Fittings revenues was not enough to offset the 23.4% (R$139
million) decrease in Rods and Wires Revenues. Export Revenues increased 15.1% (+R$20 million), R$9 million
arising from greater sales of Rods, Wires and other Copper Products and R$11 million from Bars, Profiles, Wires,
Laminates, Tubes and Fittings, partially offsetting the 17.5%, or R$106 million, Brazilian market retraction . Toll
Revenues, which are primarily from the Domestic Market, posted a 6.1% or R$4 million increase in the quarter.
By-products Revenues posted a 157.0% quarterly increase, totaling R$172 million, due to increased sales of Sulfuric
Acid (R$4 million, +16.4%) and Slag (R$0.2 million, +12.7%) in the Domestic Market, and greater exports of Anodic
Slime (R$ 23 million, +58.9%) and Revert (R$21 million, there were no sales of Revert in 2Q14).

Operational Expenses totaled R$41 million in 3Q14, 9.2% decrease when compared to 2Q14.
Sales Expenses amounted to R$7 million; a 7.6% increase due to increased third-party services related to dispatch
and personnel expenses.
General and Administrative Expenses decreased 55.1% to R$12 million. The primary reason for this decrease is the
reclassification of R$12 million in expenses from General and Administrative to “Other Operational Revenues and
Expenses”. The reclassified expenses are of non-recurring nature. Without this adjustment, General and
Administrative Expenses would have amounted to R$24 million, nevertheless a 9.6% reduction over 2Q14. This
variation is primarily due to a reduction in third-party services, travel and personnel.
Other Operational Expenses totaled R$22 million; a 85.1% increase from that of 2Q14 primarily due to the
reclassification of General and Administrative expenses of R$12 million. Isolating this effect, the variation would have
been a R$2 million reduction. The following table provides details on 3Q14 non-recurring items:

Concepts and Definition
Raw Material
Copper Concentrate is primarily purchased on the international market, with Chile as the main supplier. of the Copper
Concentrate purchase price is determined by international prices of metals contained and respective yields (copper,
gold, silver, nickel, zinc, lead and other precious metals can be found in Copper Concentrate), subtracted from the
TC/RC, or Treatment Charge (TC)/Refining Charge (RC). The TC/RC is the charge paid to the transformer for the
mineral copper processing and refining into metal copper and is negotiated between suppliers and smelters, such as
Paranapanema. There may also be adjustments to Copper Concentrate price based on precious metals content as
well as those specific characteristics of Copper Concentrate offered, which ranges from mine to mine.
Copper Scrap consists of recycled copper bought both in the local and international markets used either in the raw
material mix to produce Cathode and other alloys for copper products. In 2013 the raw materials mix was 75% Copper
Concentrate and 25% Copper Scrap.
Production
Paranapanema produces Primary Copper, Copper Products and By-products from Copper Concentrate and Copper
Scrap. The Company also conducts operation of Transformation (Toll) of copper scrap received from customers into
Copper Products.
Primary Copper, also known as Copper Cathode, is the copper commodity in its metal form. Production process
consists in converting Copper Concentrate into metal Copper.
Copper Products are tubes, fittings, rods, wires, bars and others, whose main raw material are Cathodes and copper
alloys and copper alloys with other nonferrous metals such as tin, lead and zinc. In addition to the cost of copper ,
Primary Copper requires other costs to be transformed into Copper Products, such as labor, energy, etc.
By-products results from the processing of Copper Concentrate into Cathodes. The main by-products are Sulfuric
Acid and Anodic Slime (material containing precious metals such as Gold and Silver), besides Slag, Oleum and
Revert.
Toll refers to transactions where the Company receives copper scrap from its customers and transforms it into Copper
Products. Transformation costs incurred are similar to Copper Products obtained from Primary Copper.
Pricing
Paranapanema’s Net Revenues are derived from sales volumes and prices charged by Primary Copper, Copper
Products, Toll and By-Products.
The selling price of Primary Copper or Copper Cathode is established by London Metal Exchange (LME) transactions
and is converted into Reais (BRL) based on the exchange rate at the time of sale closing, as well as the Cathode
Premium, which is the remuneration charged by the Company to transform Copper Concentrate into Primary Copper.
Copper Products selling price is determined by the mix of copper, tin, lead and zinc contained in the product (in line
with those applied for Primary Copper, i.e. LME), plus Premium, value charged by Paranapanema to transform the
Primary Copper into value added products. As it occurs in Primary Copper, revenues from sales of Copper Products
are also impacted by the USD exchange rate, even if sales are booked for Brazilian customers.
By-product prices are linked to the USD. Sulfuric Acid is quoted based on FMB (Fertilizer Market Bulletin) plus
premiums or discounts, while Anodic Slime price is set based on contained precious metals.
Toll average price per ton is materially lower than those of Copper Products, which Paranapanema does not incur in
metal revenues or costs (copper received from customers is in the form of scrap). The Premium charged in Toll

operations are usually priced in Reais but, in some occasions USD based contracts are adjusted by the dollar
exchange rate.
Inventories
Paranapanema Inventories are primarily comprised of commodities such as Copper, Gold, Silver, Zinc, Tin and Lead.
Commodity inventories have high liquidity and monetization values that are marked by very liquid markets.
Management dedicates special attention to adjusting inventories levels to operational needs and, since 4Q13, keeps
a program called Stock Short to monitor inventory levels, pursuing more integration and efficiency in Supply Chain,
Logistics, Industrial and Commercial on Inventories use.
Adjusted EBITDA
Paranapanema adjusts its EBIDTA of items called "non-recurring", which are amounts not related to Management
expectations that may occur in the future to the same degree as presented in the respective period.
Hedge and Hedge Accounting
The Company follows a risk management policy approved by the Board of Directors, in order to prevent unexpected
economic impacts from fluctuations in metal commodities prices, exchange rates and interest rates on profitability
and cash flow.
Paranapanema adopts various hedging strategies as a way to neutralize any (i.) disconnects between the sales price
and the purchase price of metals and raw materials, (ii.) impact of changes in exchange rates on the value of assets
and liabilities and the future value of revenues and costs, and (iii.) interest rate exposure, given by the annual payment
amount of floating interest embedded in financial contracts. The use of derivatives is limited exclusively to hedging
activities with adoption of Hedge Accounting when necessary.
Adoption of Hedge Accounting will be defined by standards specific to CPC 38 and 39, which should provide at least
the following: (a) the exchange risk on both financial and operational elements may adopt the hedge of the fair value
or cash flow with derivatives or financial instruments; (b) commodity risk may adopt hedge of the fair value or cash
flow with derivative or embedded derivatives and (c) for the interest rates risk may adopt the cash flow hedge with
derivatives.
The reading and interpretation of financial statements with the adoption of Hedge Accounting differ from those that
do not adopt Hedge Accounting and recognize all the variations on derivatives and financial instruments as Financial
Income or Losses.
With the adoption of Hedge Accounting of Cash Flows there is a need to analyze the "Other Comprehensive Income"
account presented in Net Worth. This account is used to record future gains and losses on hedges until the moment
they actually occur, when they are recognized in the Operational Result of the respective period.
In order to allocate effects of economic hedges in Gross Profit, Paranapanema has adopted Hedge Accounting of
the fair value hedging of metals (copper, zinc, lead and tin) and precious metals (gold and silver) inventories.
Management may implement new hedging strategies or modify current strategies, implemented parallel with Hedge
Accounting.
Metal Hedge
The Company seeks to neutralize metal price fluctuation on Paranapanema’s income through the fair value hedge
of the inventories program by using derivative contracts at stock exchanges, derivatives embedded in Copper
Concentrate purchasing contracts and offsetting long and short positions.

3Q14 EARNINGS RELEASE
The industrial cycle of the smelter causes Paranapanema to carry a "load" of physical inventory of metals and makes
use of hedging instruments to protect them, in an effort to approximate metal cost value to metal price at sale moment.
For hedging purposes, metal inventories represent a long position. Copper Concentrate sourcing process causes
purchase value to be unknown at purchase date, a metals market practice. Values are defined according to LME
parameters during months following the purchase date. This period is known as "Quotational Period" (or "QP"). This
situation specific to metal markets creates a short position for Paranapanema, until the QP is defined.
Due to amounts usually involved between long and short position of financial transactions, Paranapanema has a
long position. To balance this position, the Company sells derivatives to create an additional short, up to the amount
to neutralize the exposure. This procedure is in line with Company’s risk management policy.
Exchange Rate Hedge
The Company aims to permanently protect 70% to 100% of net foreign exchange exposure of the 6-12 months
projected cash flow through derivative transactions, and offsetting revenues and liabilities pegged to the US Dollar
(USD).
Paranapanema maintains liabilities pegged to the USD (short position), mainly with suppliers and credit facilities. As
a nature of copper business, future revenues are also pegged to the USD (long position). Net position perceived by
Paranapanema, is long. To counteract this situation, Paranapanema sells USD Non Deliverable Forwards (NDFs),
thereby reducing its USD exposure. This process is in line with the Company’s risk management policy.
Effects arising from exchange rate hedge are perceived in three accounts in Financial Statements: in Financial
Results for transactions settled during the period, in OCI, within Net Worth, where gains and losses of exchange rate
mark-to-market variations on future income and expenses awaits transfer to Operating Revenues until they are
materialized.
Total Return Swap
Paranapanema entered into an agreement in November 2012 with Deutsche Bank (DB) to exchange flows by which
DB is long on CDI (Certificados de Depósitos Interbancários – reference daily interest rate used in Brazilian market)
and short on Paranapanema’s share price, PMAM3. The Company has the opposite positions as DB.
