| Abstract: | The ratings on Klabin S.A. reflect Brazil's reduced country risks and favorable economic prospects as the company's main market; the conclusion of a significant expansion project; and additional output gradually reaching the market and strengthening profitability and cash generation, especially in 2008 and 2009. The company maintains a conservative financial profile regarding liquidity and keeps active liability management, providing it with enough comfort through the peak debt period it is currently going through. The ratings also reflect the company's exposure to some important cost inputs such as energy, although the new expansion project will reduce this exposure from second-quarter 2008 onward; the fragmented market for corrugated boxes, which does not allow for pricing policies consistent with the company's leading market |
