4Q15 EARNINGS RELEASE • February 3, 2016

SUMMARYThe fourth quarter of 2015 concluded a year

marked by a strong slowdown in economic activity

and increasing inflation in Brazil. Throughout the

year, this scenario, together with the upturn in

unemployment and the decline in investments,

led to market pessimism, in turn leading to a

substantial devaluation of the real and a reduction

in the stock market indices. The situation was

further aggravated by the country’s political crisis,

which is jeopardizing approval of the measures

needed to rekindle confidence in the country’s

economy.

On the international front, the end of the yearwas marked by a hefty slide in the price of certain

commodities, especially oil, which, together with

news of more modest Chinese growth, has been

generating a good deal of uncertainty and

volatility in the international markets.

Brazil’s economic slowdown continued to impact

the paper and packaging markets in the final

quarter. In its preliminary December report, the

Brazilian Corrugated Boxes Association (ABPO),

stated that corrugated box shipments fell by 3% in

4Q15 year-on-year and in 2015 over 2014, while

the most recent figures from the Brazilian Tree

Industry (IBÁ, formerly Bracelpa) pointed to a 6%

downturn in annual coated board sales (excluding

liquid packaging boards).

On the other hand, in the international kraftliner

market, the European list price averaged €592/t in

4Q15, flat over 3Q15 and 5% up year-on-year,

according to FOEX. This international price

stability, together with the strong devaluation of

the real throughout 2015, favored Klabin’s exports

in all its market segments.

Given the slowing of the domestic markets and

the improved conditions in the export market,

Klabin, taking advantage of its flexible and

competitive product line, routed more volume to

markets abroad, where sales of every product line

increased over both 3Q15 and 4Q14. In the

domestic market, the economic slowdown was

reflected in reduced sales in the conversion

segment, partially offset by the healthy

performance of coated board sales thanks to

Klabin’s resilient client portfolio. As a result,

driven by the substantial 52% year-on-year upturn

in export volume in 4Q15, the Company reported

record sales in the quarter, with exports

accounting for 38% of the total, versus 28% in

4Q14.

Costs were impacted by strong inflationary

pressure throughout 2015, especially on energy,

fuel and dollar-denominated input prices. On the

other hand, the efforts to control costs had the

desired effect and, together with the increase in

volume which partially diluted fixed production

costs, ensured that the quarterly and 12-month

upturns in the cash cost per tonne were both in

line with current domestic inflation.

Thus, despite the deterioration in Brazil’s

economic indicators since the beginning of the

year, which directly jeopardized the paper andpackaging markets and the production costs of

companies operating in the country, Klabin once

again underlined the efficiency of its versatile

product line and its presence in a wide range of

markets. In spite of the adverse market

conditions, the Company was able to maintain

consistent results. Excluding non-recurring land

sales figure by R$27 million that increased the

4Q14, fourth-quarter adjusted EBITDA was 25%

up, and totaled R$603 million. In the last 12

months Adjusted EBITDA came to R$1,975 million,

achiveving the 18th consecutive quarter of

growth.

Exchange Rate

After the strong devaluation of the first nine months, the real was more stable in 4Q15, closing the quarter at

R$3.90/US$, 2% down on 3Q15. The average exchange rate, still reflecting the real ’s downward trajectory,

stood at R$3.84/US$, 9% up on 3Q15 and 51% more than in 4Q14.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Sales volume

Fourth-quarter sales volume, excluding wood, totaled 499 thousand tonnes, 13% up year-on-year despite the

worsening of activity in Brazil’s packaging markets. In addition to recent increases in its production capacity,this sales upturn once again reflected the resilience of Klabin’s markets and its flexible product line, which

enabled it to route more volume abroad in view of the weakening of the domestic markets.

The devaluation of the real throughout the year and the slowdown in Brazil’s economic activity favored

exports. In this context, Klabin expanded its international paper and coated board sales, more than offsetting

the impacts of sluggish consumption in the domestic and converted packaging markets.

As a result, fourth-quarter export volume increased by a substantial 52% year-on-year, accounting for 38% of

total sales, versus 28% in 4Q14. Exports’ share of total sales volume also improved over the 33% recorded in

the previous quarter. With more sales being routed abroad, volume in the domestic market, where there is a

large share of conversion products, fell by 3% over 4Q14.

Annual sales came to 1,833 thousand tonnes, 4% more than the 1,771 thousand tonnes recorded in 2014,

due to the recent capacity increases in Klabin’s paper units and higher export volume, which climbed by 15%

over the year before.

Net Revenue

Net revenue including wood totaled R$1,596 million in 4Q15, 27% up on 4Q14, largely due to higher sales to

the international market, fueled by the period devaluation of the real against the dollar. Given the increased

share of exports in total sales, net revenue from international sales almost doubled, from R$309 million in

4Q14 to R$606 million in 4Q15, with exports accounting for 38% of the total, versus 25% in 4Q14.

Revenue in the domestic market achieved growth of 5% in the period compared to 4Q14, emphasizing once

again the strength of Klabin's customer base in the face of the economic weakness and more specifically the

markets for packaging in Brazil.

Throughout the year, Klabin’s efforts to seek better markets in different economic scenarios once again

resulted in a net revenue upturn. In 2015, despite the deterioration in Brazil’s packaging paper market,

revenue totaled R$5,688 million, 16% more than in 2014.

Pro-forma net revenue, including Klabin’s proportional share of revenue from Florestal Vale do Corisco S.A.,

came to R$1,611 million in the quarter and R$5,749 million in the full year.

Operating Costs and Expenses

The unit cash cost, which includes fixed and variable costs and operating expenses, came to R$2,020/t in

4Q15. Excluding non-recurring items from other operating revenue and expenses, which had a relevant

impact on the year-on-year comparison, the unit cash cost came to R$2,041/t, 12.5% up on 4Q14, mainly due

to the higher cost of energy acquisitions and dollar-denominated inputs, in addition to higher selling

expenses with the increase of the export volume. However, the upturn was partially mitigated by lower wood

harvesting costs and the dilution of fixed costs due to higher sales volume.

In the year as a whole, also excluding non-recurring items from other operating revenue and expenses, the

unit cash cost stood at R$2,041/t, 10% more than in 2014, in line with period inflation, despite the upturn in

energy and dollar-denominated inputs above the official government inflation index, due to the Company’s

cost reduction programs and the increase in sales volume, partially diluting fixed costs.

The cost of goods sold per tonne, excluding depreciation, depletion and amortization, came to R$1,600/t in

4Q15, 13% up on 4Q14, due to the substantial increase in the cost of energy and dollar-denominated inputs,

partially offset by lower wood costs and the greater dilution of fixed production costs. In 2015, the cost of

goods sold per tonne, excluding depreciation, depletion and amortization, moved up by 10% over the

previous year, in line with inflation.

Selling expenses totaled R$121 million in the quarter, 27% up on 4Q14, in line with the period upturn in sales

revenue, especially to the export market, and accounted for 7.6% of net revenue, the same ratio as in 4Q14.

Annual selling expenses came to R$428 million, 13% more than in 2014, also impacted by higher sales

revenue.

Fourth-quarter general and administrative expenses stood at R$101 million. Excluding the effects from the

review of payroll tax exemption at the end of 2014 by the Brazilian government and other non-recurring

expenses in the period, the upturn came to 16% and was mainly due to the collective bargaining agreement

in the fourth quarter and the one-off hiring of personnel related to the Puma Project. Annual administrative

expenses came to R$338 million, 13% up on 2014.

Other operating revenue (expenses) resulted in revenue of R$10 million in 4Q15. In 2015, the Company

recorded an expense of R$13 million, versus revenue of R$85 million in 2014, which includes the sale of

forest assets amounting to R$27 million in 4Q14.

Effect of the variation in the fair value of biological assets

The effect of the variation in the fair value of biological assets was a gain of R$227 million in 4Q15, primarily

due to the growth of forests that were recognized at their fair value. In the same period, the effect of the

depletion of the fair value of biological assets on the cost of goods sold was R$156 million. As a result, the

non-cash impact of the variation in the fair value of biological assets on operating income (EBIT) in the

quarter was a gain of R$71 million.

Operating Cash Flow (EBITDA)

Despite inflationary pressure on production costs since the beginning of the year and the slowing of Brazil’s

economy, the upturn in fourth-quarter sales revenue once again boosted results, and operating cash flow

(adjusted EBITDA) came to R$603 million, 19% up year-on-year, with an EBITDA margin of 37%. Excluding

non-recurring land sales of R$27 million in 4Q14, the increase came to 25%.

The high competitiveness and quality of its diversified product line has enabled Klabin to expand its

international sales at a time when weak economic activity in Brazil resulted in the deterioration of the

domestic paper and packaging markets. Despite the worsening national scenario, however, total sales

climbed by 13% year-on-year, driven by the 52% increase in export volume. It is worth noting that the

improved export performance was fueled by the period appreciation of the dollar, which pushed up Klabin’s

export revenue by 96% over 4Q14, a factor that played a crucial role in the period results upturn.

In the year as a whole, also due to the flexibility of being able to ship more volume abroad, adjusted EBITDA

came to R$1,975 million, 15% up on 2014, with an EBITDA margin of 34%, in line with the previous year.

These figures include Klabin’s share of Florestal Vale do Corisco S.A., which totaled R$15 million in the

quarter and R$42 million in the year.

Indebtedness and Financial Investments

Gross debt totaled R$18,022 million on December 31, 2015, R$498 million more than at the close of 3Q15,

chiefly due to new funding to cover Puma Project disbursements. Of this total, R$12,343 million, or 68%

(US$3,161 million) was denominated in dollars, primarily export pre-payment facilities.

Cash and financial investments closed the quarter at R$5,611 million, R$299 million less than in 3Q15, mainly

due to disbursements for the execution of the Puma Project, partially offset by new financing lines and theCompany’s cash flow. This amount exceeds financing amortizations due in the next 29 months.

Consolidated net debt totaled R$12,411 million on December 31, R$797 million more than the R$11,614

million recorded on September 30, chiefly due to investments of R$1.4 billion in the quarter. On the other

hand, the Company’s strong cash flow and the lower end-of-quarter exchange rate in relation to 3Q15 kept

the net debt / adjusted EBITDA ratio stable at 6.3x, versus 6.2x on September 30.

It is worth noting that throughout 2015, the strong devaluation of the real affected the net debt/EBITDA ratio

by 1.6x. Considering EBITDA in the last 12 months and net debt in dollars, the year-end ratio stood at 5.4x. It

is worth emphasizing that, in addition to Klabin not having any financial covenants attached to its debt, the

exchange variation effect is of a purely accounting nature and most of its impact is on financing related to

export pre-payment facilities not linked to the Puma Project and already backed by Klabin’s fu ture exports.

The average maturity term at the close of 4Q15 was stable at 50 months (42 months for local-currency

financing and 54 months for foreign-currency funding). Short-term debt accounted for 11% of the total and

borrowing rates in local and foreign currency averaged 12.4% p.a. and 4.7% p.a., respectively.

Financial Result

Despite higher Brazilian interest rates and the increase in the Company’s gross debt due to the contracting of

financing lines for the Puma Project, financial expenses remained stable in 4Q15. Thanks to the Company’s

liability management, resulting in long-term funding at attractive costs, financial expenses came to R$234

million in 4Q15, a slight increase over the R$225 million recorded in 4Q14.

Financial revenue came to R$160 million in the quarter, versus R$132 million in 4Q14, chiefly due to the

upturn in Brazilian interest rates that remunerate the Company’s cash.

The positive impact of higher financial revenue and the slight increase in financial expenses led to a negative

financial result, excluding the exchange variation, of R$74 million in 4Q15, a R$19 million improvement over

the negative R$93 million recorded in 4Q14.

The exchange rate closed the quarter 2% down on the end of September 2015. Due to the impact on foreign

currency debt, the net foreign exchange variation was positive by R$306 million in the quarter. However, this

was not enough to offset the impact of the strong devaluation of the real on foreign currency debt in 2015,

and the annual net foreign exchange variation came to a negative R$3,174 million. Note that the exchange

variation has an exclusively accounting effect on the Company’s balance sheet, with no significant cash

impact in the short term.

Fourth-quarter log sales to third parties totaled 865 thousand tonnes, 9% up on 4Q14, favored by the

appreciation of the dollar, which fueled higher wood product exports by Klabin’s clients, essentially plywood

and moldings. Net revenue totaled R$77 million, also 9% up year-on-year.

With the higher exchange rate benefiting exporters, the wood market has proved to be resilient. Annual log

sales climbed by 12% over 2014 to 3,204 thousand tonnes, generating revenue of R$362 million.

BUSINESS UNIT - PAPER

Kraftliner

In 4Q15, the greater availability of Klabin’s recycled paper due to the recent capacity increases was routed to

corrugated box production, freeing virgin fiber paper volume for exports. This movement was fueled by the

substantial increase in the exchange rate and was enabled by Klabin’s flexibility in adapting to different

economic scenarios. As a result, kraftliner sales totaled 119 thousand tonnes, generating revenue of R$261

million, up by 32% and 63%, respectively, over 4Q14. It is worth noting that, in the same period, export sales

climbed by 65%, virtually doubling kraftliner revenue from international markets.

In addition, according to FOEX, international kraftliner prices increased from €566/t in 4Q14, to €592/t in

4Q15. In the domestic market, despite the economic slowdown, cost pressure on the production chain from

energy, OCC and personnel has been sustaining packaging paper prices.

In the year as a whole, Klabin took advantage of its market and product flexibility to increase kraftliner sales

following the paper capacity upturns in 2014 and 2015. Annual sales came to 418 thousand tonnes, 8% more

than in 2014, led by the 20% increase in exports. Net revenue amounted to R$858 million, 34% up in the

same period.

Coated BoardsIn 4Q15, coated board sales came to 194 thousand tonnes, 17% more than 4Q14 and a new record, thanks to

the greater availability of coated boards after the debottlenecking of machine no. 9 and the routing of sales

to the international market, fueled by the devaluation of the real. Consequently, period net revenue came to

R$637 million, 42% up year-on-year.

The excellent receptivity of Klabin’s coated boards and the high exchange rate boosted exports, whose

volume and net revenue grew by 41% and 95% respectively over 4Q14. In Brazil as whole, the Brazilian Tree

Industry (IBÁ, formerly Bracelpa), the figures reported a 6% reduction in coated board sales in 2015 over 20’4

(excluding liquid packaging boards), reflecting the slowdown in economic activity. However, given the

resilience of some of the Company’s markets, notably the beverage segment, Klabin’s own domestic sales

performed well.

In 2015, Klabin’s coated board sales came to 685 thousand tonnes, 8% up on the previous year, fueled by the

debottlenecking of paper machine no. 9 in the Monte Alegre plant in mid-2014, which mainly increased the

portion of output shipped abroad. In addition to the capacity increase, the Company’s flexibility, allowing it to

route more volume to exports, resulted in net revenue increasing by 26% over 2014 to R$2,096 million.

BUSINESS UNIT - CONVERSION

According to the Brazilian Corrugated Boxes Association (ABPO), annual and fourth-quarter sales fell by 3.1%

and 2.7%, respectively, reflecting the deterioration in Brazilian economic activity and the even bigger

industrial slowdown. Despite stable sales in 4Q15 due to a higher share of Brazil ’s fruit market, Klabin’s

annual sales recorded a decline similar to that reported by ABPO.

In relation to industrial bags, despite the decline in the construction market, Klabin benefited from its strong

presence in Brazil’s Northeast, where demand has been higher than in the country’s other regions. The

Company’s strategy of developing new markets outside Brazil also proved successful, underlining its flexibility

in the industrial bag market as well.

However, despite the year-long decline in sales volume due to the deterioration of the domestic economy,

net revenue increased by 8% in 4Q15 and by 4% in 2015, reaching R$2,251 million, thanks to Klabin’s

improved sales mix and the devaluation of the real against the dollar.

INVESTMENTS

Klabin invested R$1.4 billion in 4Q15, led by

investments in the new pulp plant in Ortigueira (PR). Of

this total, R$114 million went to the continuity of mill

operations, R$27 million to forestry operations, R$28

million to special projects and capacity expansions, and

R$1,195 million to the Puma Project.

The construction of the new pulp line, which will add 1.5 million tonnes to the Company’s current capacity in

Ortigueira (PR), recorded substantial progress and closed the year with 95% of its works complete and 77%

of its financing disbursed. The project moved ahead precisely in line with the original schedule and budget at

the same time as the Company was recording growing results in a highly adverse scenario, underlining

Klabin’s focus and major execution capacity.
