(1)Our subsidiary Compass performed a reclassification affecting its consolidated financial statements in IFRS for the years ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021. Specifically, its subsidiary Comgás reclassified the effects of the CCR on its gross profit. As a result, we voluntarily reassessed the way in which we present the classification of the effects of CCR and general and administrative expenses. Accordingly, we reclassified the relevant balances in our consolidated statement of profit or loss for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, in order to reflect the reclassification performed by Compass. For more information, see “Presentation of Financial Information—Financial Statements—Reclassification by Compass” and note 3.4 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report.
(2)Net debt consists of current and non-current debt (including preferred shareholders payable in subsidiaries), net of cash and cash equivalents, current and non-current marketable securities and derivatives on debt recorded in our consolidated financial statements as other non-current assets. Net debt is a non-GAAP measure
(3)Working capital consists of total current assets less total current liabilities.
(4)Reflects the Merger and the stock split undertaken on April 30, 2021 for all years presented as if it had occurred on January 1, 2020. For more information about the Merger and the stock split, see “Item 4. Information on the Company—A. History and Development of the Company—History.”

The information in the table below presents a reconciliation of Net debt, a non-GAAP financial measure, the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure. Our calculation of Net debt may differ from the calculation of similarly titled measures used by other companies. Our management believes that disclosure of Net Debt is useful to potential investors as it helps to give them a clearer understanding of our financial liquidity. Net Debt is also used to calculate certain leverage ratios. However, Net Debt is not a measure under IFRS and should not be considered as a substitute for measures of indebtedness determined in accordance with IFRS.
