NON-CURRENT LIABILITIES
The non-current liabilities caption shows a US $55.646
thousand (85%) increase in comparison with December 2011.
This increment is explained mainly by:
Long-term bank costs
These show a US $40.925 thousand increase, 96% greater than
December 2011. The increase in this account is primarily due
to the issuing of bonds amounting up to US $50 million at a
10-year period, from a total of US $200 million (in bonds) in the
stock market. These bonds will be used to finance some of the
Company´s investment projects: Atlantic Terminal, plant tanks
and part of the LPG spheres.
This item also includes accounts pertaining debt services;
interest, fees and amortization of attained credits. At the end of
each period any leftover debts are transferred to the short-term
portion so as to write off amounts corresponding to each entity
on set dates.
Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax liabilities increased by US $16.706
thousand in the 2012 period, this represents a 100% increase
when compared to 2011 and it is due to the revaluation of fixed
assets during this period. The liability on deferred income tax
is generated by a 30% surplus coming from asset revaluation,
which represents the value registered as carrying amount of
revalued assets and follows ISR interest rates.
It is expected that this liability will be cancelled when the
carrying amount of the asset is recovered.
Providing legal services
This item presents a 9% decrease due to the settlement of
legal benefits for officials who have resigned or invoked old
pension due to old age: as disposed in the Effective Collective
Agreement, articles No. 28 - 29 and 153 of the Labor Code.
