Letter from the Chairman of the Board of Directors
I am pleased to present the Annual Report corresponding to the 2012 fiscal year. In 2012 the company strengthened its leadership position in the supermarket industry with total revenue up 8.8% in real terms and with
significant improvements for its operating processes and
internal productivity.
Chile is currently operating in a prosperous local scenario, with the country’s gross domestic production up
5.6%. Over 138,000 new jobs have been created and
consumption is increasing steadily. In addition, annual
inflation amounts to 1.5%, although food price inflation
is up by nearly 5%. The retail industry has been growing
dynamically, with new stores opening throughout the
country and competition becoming more and more intense.
In this scenario, the company opened 28 new stores, including 13 Super Bodega Acuenta, 7 Express de Lider, 3
Lider and 5 Ekono stores. Total investment came to US$
337 million in 2012, including the purchase of land, construction of stores and an intensive remodeling program.
Walmart Chile’s total sales revenue came to US$ 6.03 billion this year. One-third of this year’s increase compared to last year comes from sales reported by new stores
and two-thirds comes from increased same store sales.
A considerable increase in the sale of non-edible products, innovative commercial proposals and increased
emphasis for our everyday low prices (EDLP) policy have
all added to this healthy performance.
Overall selling and administrative expenses increased by
7.2% in real terms, while total sales were up by 8.8%. This
means increased productivity for the company. We wish
to highlight that the number of employees at supermarkets increased by only 2.9% in December, while sales per
square meter was up 5.9%. The company generated
EBITDA amounting to US$ 511 million and net earnings
of US$ 241 million, surpassing last year’s figures, especially if we subtract income from extraordinary operations
corresponding to 2011.
Throughout 2012, we
focused and worked
consistently on several levels
of our mission to
“save money for people
so they can live better”.
5
Throughout 2012, we focused and worked consistently
on several levels of our mission to “save money for people so they can live better”. In fact, we improved the price
difference with our competitors and developed powerful commercial campaigns, including the March start of
the school year, Easter, Spring, Independence Day and
Christmas campaigns. We wish to highlight the incorporation of new lines of imported products from the global Walmart supply network and the strengthening of
our own store brand sales program, which was up 15%
compared to last year. Lastly, we strengthened the Walmart own brands proposal that included the Great Value,
Parent’s Choice and Equate brands.
In addition, we made substantial headway on Walmart
system integration in the commercial, logistics, accounting and financial areas, while starting to implement
other store management systems, which should be
completed during 2013. We also made substantial headway on strengthening the logistics network through
total commissioning of the new Lo Aguirre distribution
center featuring world-class technology. In turn, a strategy was developed and construction started for the first
Wholesale Center stores started. This new format will be
inaugurated during the first months of 2013. We believe
that this format will pave the way to active participation
in the wholesale distribution industry with a new and attractive proposal for our potential clients with a focus on
everyday low prices.
In keeping with Walmart tradition, we are developing
a proactive human resources policy, providing several
training opportunities for our associates, encouraging
talent development and internal promotion, while fostering a pleasant and efficient working environment. One
milestone was the completion of collective bargaining
with a large number of unionized associates in an atmosphere of respect, commitment and collaboration. I wish
to send each of our 45,150 associates a special greeting
and my thanks for a job well done throughout the year.
I wish to highlight that several Walmart Chile executives were chosen to fill even more important positions
in Walmart’s worldwide organization, recognition for the
professional capacity and local talent we are so proud of.
These executives include Mr. Enrique Ostalé Cambiaso,
General Manager of Walmart Chile, who has had a longstanding and successful track record with our company.
He has been promoted to the position of President
and Chief Executive Officer of Walmart Latin America,
one of the most important positions in the company’s
international organization. We wish to extend our congratulations and wish him success, together with our
sincere thanks for his invaluable contribution to the development of our company. In addition, as of 1 March
2013, Mr. Ostalé has been replaced in this position by
Mr. Gian Carlo Nucci, former COO of Walmex, who has
extensive experience and a long-standing track record
in this company’s retail operations. We pledge our wholehearted collaboration and wish him success in his new
position.

company to grow in terms of customer
service and quality.
1984
The first Ekono supermarket was
opened in Santiago, an economic format
that consolidated operations in Chile.
1985
D&S, Distribución y Servicio S.A.,

larger surface areas, incorporating a selection of non-edible products.
1990 The Company’s expansion strategy
throughout Chile started after the first
Ekono Hypermarket was opened in Viña
del Mar, the first store in one of Chile’s
regions outside of Santiago.
D&S introduced the concept of
an economic megamarket under the
Lider brand with the opening of the Lider
Pajaritos Hypermarket in Santiago.
In addition, the first public offering of
the company’s shares was made on the
Santiago Stock Exchange, making the
company an open stock corporation. The
Presto card was also launched.

thus starting incorporation of the largest
retail sales company in the world into the
national chain and taking on the mission
to help people save money and live better.

started. This process was designed to
create increasing value by implementing
good practices that have already been
established in other countries where the
transnational operates. Sustainability

company’s business strategy, in line with
Walmart’s global development work.

Hiper Lider stores changed their name and
logo to Lider, providing additional strength,
proximity, innovation and modernity to the
brand. In addition, the company purchased

most modern distribution centers in South

another step regarding its commitment
with the environment in April with the
creation of a Consortium for Sustainability
in Chile. This global organization promotes
improved sustainability performance for its
products, services and consumption habits
by means of joint efforts with suppliers,
NGOs and governmental agencies. In addition, Walmart Chile innovated by launching
the first digital platform in South America
for making payment using mobile phones.

Express de Lider supermarkets in Chile. In
turn, Lider.cl was the first store in the world
to make general merchandise products
available in Antarctica, Juan Fernández
Island and Easter Island.

Our Business
2012 became a cornerstone for the Company’s integration processes as a huge step toward the complete implementation of systems, processes and practices that
have made Walmart the company it is today on a global
scale. As we have done in previous years, once again we
wish to highlight the outstanding collaboration, support
and perseverance of our suppliers while incorporating
the changes we are going through, highlighting support for our mission to save money for our customers
so they can live better. We base all our efforts, priorities
and actions on the EDLP/EDLC (everyday low price and
everyday low cost) model.
Priorities
We had four supplier priorities in 2012: Integration, MultiFormats, EDLP/EDLC (everyday low price and everyday
low cost) in order to achieve profitable growth in an
ethics and compliance framework.
Integration was the undisputed protagonist in 2012.
Conversion to Walmart systems have been highlighted:
SMART implementation at 127 Ekono stores, 2 Lider
stores and 4 Distribution Centers; registration of over
230 suppliers in Retail Link, our Walmart management
platform; implementation of the Global Shared Services
(GSS) division in Costa Rica (GSS); and implementation of
all Walmart financial platforms in Chile. These initiatives
required important training efforts for our own staff and
suppliers, and the design of many of our management
practices, which required structural adaptation to the
new processes and systems. As a result, we can proudly
say that we have taken a giant leap toward implementing fluent and efficient processes, which we expect to
mature in 2013. We wish to thank all of our suppliers for
their support and for the role they played in change management.
As for logistics, we made substantial headway with GRS,
a resupply system developed for Walmart and scheduled
for implementation in 2013. The most important innovations and benefits are related to increased purchasing
process automation, future demand forecasting up to
17 weeks ahead based on sales over the last two mobile months, which will enable more efficient supply and
more specialized resupply equipment.
In addition, our efforts are still focused on providing a
distinctive Multi-Format proposal in accordance with our
customers’ specific needs. We are consequently working
together with our suppliers on a unique value proposal
that will become the hallmark for each of the Company’s
formats. Moreover, the upcoming launch of our Wholesale format has already attracted keen interest among
our suppliers.
Walmart Chile has actively participated in the Ethical
Sourcing program, which features audit processes for
the factories that make our products, which consider the
quality of working conditions for workers at these facilities.
We wish to highlight that 100% of our products were
backed by a formal agreement in 2012 (APC). This is in
line with our compliance policies that we aim to further
improve. A clear operating framework ensures fluent business relations with our suppliers, facilitate our operation and bring us closer to our mission. We will continue
to prioritize everything related to building a sustainable,
and responsible business that complies with the highest
management standards.
Growth is one of our main priorities and we constantly
invite our suppliers to grow with us. This produces a
virtuous management circle in which Walmart Chile
suppliers are an integral part of our business model. If
the Company is able to operate with low costs, these
savings are transferred to its customers. If these customers choose us, sales go up and the Company and its
17
suppliers grow.
Support for Women’s Economic Development
In order to promote supplier development and diversification, Walmart Chile and Women Entrepreneurs hosted a convention with companies managed by women.
These companies were invited to offer their products
and/or services to the Company.
This initiative was part of the Company’s commitment to
women’s economic development, diversity and fair and
inclusive trade.
The meeting was attended by over 80 women, who had
the chance to get to know cases of successful endeavors with women leaders that have become important
Walmart suppliers and to talk with executives about the
requirements and standards to be met by products and
services that qualify for our selling areas. Nineteen of the
total number of women in attendance joined a training
plan with Walmart Chile purchasers in order to learn
more about how their businesses could be developed.
At the same time, supplier companies led by women
were invited to be trained in several key courses to ensure successful management of their businesses, such as
market segmentation, marketing and sales.
The Best Retailer
Walmart Chile was recognized as the best evaluated
retailer among its main national competitors in 2012,
according to the third version of “The Advantage Mirror
Report” study conducted by The Advantage Group international consultants for 60 retail industry suppliers. This
study aims to identify the best supermarkets operator
from among a group of 4 industry leaders, evaluating
different areas of performance.

Economic Scenario
Retail Sales
At an international level, 2012 generally evidenced reduced economic activity. This was mainly due to limited growth of developed economies and better relative
results reported by some emerging economies. There
were persistent risks of a fiscal and financial crisis in the
Eurozone throughout 2012.
At a domestic level, internal demand and activity indicators were up compared to the year before. Employment
climbed 1.8%, together with actual salary growth up by
4.7%. Chile’s GDP increased by 5.6% and the average
unemployment rate came to 6.5%.
According to a report issued by the National Chamber of
Commerce, retail sales in the Metropolitan Region climbed 6% in 2012.
This same report attributes these results to steadily
growing internal demand buoyed up by both increasing
employment and actual salaries, as well as favorable credit conditions and improved consumer expectations.
The following graph indicates actual annual sales performance in the Metropolitan Region (MR) over the last 10
years.
Total inflation accumulated up to December amounted
to 1.5% and the monetary policy interest rate (MPIR) held
steady at 5% throughout the year.

Sales reported by the traditional supermarket line (groceries and perishables) dropped 2.9% in 2012. Walmart
Chile participates in this industry by means of its traditional supermarket line (groceries and perishables), as
well as lines that were normally covered by department
stores, such as clothing, footwear, electrical appliances,
household items and furniture.
Financial Services
This industry has made an important contribution to diversifying and developing sources of credit in financial
markets, playing an important role in economic activity
and improving quality of life for a large percentage of the
population by facilitating access to goods and services
that would be otherwise difficult.
Financial service industry competitiveness is characterized by the participation of different companies related
to banking, trade, cooperatives, family allowance compensation funds and insurance companies. The industry
has diversified its supply of products, including consumer credit, insurance intermediation, financing and the
sale of tour packages, among others. This has facilitated
credit access for income brackets that often do not qualify for bank financing.

Shopping Centers
This industry started in 1982 and has grown progressively, bringing an attractive and highly valued supply of
products, services and entertainment together in a single physical location.
Income growth has reduced the number of households
required in order to sustain a shopping center and the
current trend has evolved from large malls built in the
outlying areas of cities to smaller urban centers in consolidated areas in cities, adding new services such as
medical centers and offices, among others. The Urban
Space known as “Your neighborhood shopping center”
was created and developed based on this concept. This
is a neighborhood shopping center format whose value proposal is to provide an easy, fast and comfortable
shopping experience for customers.
Regulatory Scenario
Walmart Chile mainly operates in economic and corporate sectors that are considered to be unregulated.
Notwithstanding, these businesses are subject to different generally applicable bodies of law and these especially affect how these businesses are to be conducted,
highlighting free competition protection legislation,
labor legislation and consumer protection standards.
In addition, financial activity that is developed through
Presto credit card operation is regulated, mainly by
means of Chilean Central Bank, Chilean Superintendence
of Banks and Financial Institutions and Superintendence
of Securities and Insurance standards.
Chile has laws that protect free competition and seek to
prevent monopolistic activities or practices, as well as the
abuse of a dominant position in any market or industry.
There has been growing concern in recent years about
the size and power of the relative market controlled by
large supermarket operators. In this sense, the National
Economic Prosecutor’s Office and the Chilean Antitrust
Court have actively sought to prevent eventual abuse by
these operators in their relations with suppliers and their
relations with the competition and consumers. With this
aim in mind, the Company presently complies with the
General Terms and Conditions for the Procurement of
21
Merchandise (TCGA) that came into force in May 2007.
The full text of this document is available at the Walmart
Chile website (www.walmartchile.cl).
Among other provisions, TCGAs established a Public Defense Office for Suppliers, which is responsible for preventing, hearing, addressing and impartially settling any
difficulty or controversy between the company and any
supplier providing merchandise for its supermarkets. In
addition, Walmart Chile has Internal Compliance Guidelines for Free Competition Regulations.
In terms of labor legislation, Walmart Chile complies with
the obligations and responsibilities required of employers by law.
With regard to consumer protection, the company has
implemented a total public transparency policy. A wide
range of legal information and information of interest to
consumers is published at its websites www.walmartchile.cl and www.presto.cl. Walmart Chile also has sufficient human and technological resources to provide
timely solutions for all of its customers’ requirements.
In accordance with the provisions of Law N°20,393 on
the Criminal Liability of Legal Persons, Walmart Chile is
presently implementing a crime prevention model for
the Company and its subsidiaries.
Regarding issuing and operation of the Presto credit
card, Law N° 20,555 that grants financial powers to the
National Consumer Service was passed in December
2011 and came into force in 2012. In this regard we wish
to report that the company has taken all necessary legal
and operational measures to comply with the provisions
of these regulations and to fully comply with all relevant
legal provisions.

Achievements in 2012
3 Our Strategic Pillars
Management Report
Sustained and Profitable Growth
The Company has achieved a leadership position with
international standards and is becoming one of the
most reliable, efficient and profitable mass consumer
product distribution networks in the industry. Its three
divisions (retail, real estate and financial services) have
been strengthened in a highly competitive environment
over recent years, ensuring financing for the Company’s
upcoming projects.
In order to meet its objectives, Walmart Chile has formulated a business strategy mainly based on achieving
high competitiveness levels and a steady growth rate.
We have a diversified portfolio of business formats, with
different store prototypes in each format. This provides
flexibility in order to harness and better adapt to growth
opportunities available in the market, while optimizing
capital invested and returns.
Exceptional Value at Low Prices
Our value proposal is based on a combination of different factors, which as a whole enable our customers to
purchase household consumption baskets at lower prices. Each of our formats has a differentiated value proposal that aims to satisfy consumption needs for the customer segment it serves.
This differentiated proposal is supported by a culture
of continuous improvement and low cost operations,
which allows us to offer our customers everyday low
prices.
Quality Management
In 2012 the company continued its Food Safety audits
according to the new Walmat format (High Five Audit)
conducted by third parties, specifically for companies
that supply products with a hygiene program (Ecolab
and Diversey).
In addition, HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control
Points) implementation was strengthened at our stores
in order to guarantee safe food product manufacturing
and handling.
39
Procedural and technical standardization continued in
the following areas:
ʭʭ
Supplier evaluation using technical standards provided by Walmart.
ʭʭ
Nutrition labeling, considerably improving information provided to consumers.
ʭʭ
Signage for all formats, approaching the five basic rules of food safety.
ʭʭ
Specific operating procedures, standardizing the
company’s current procedures with Walmart’s best
practices.
The company has continued to implement Pest Control Audits in accordance with Walmart standards and
has increased monitoring through the application of
internal controls conducted by each supermarket. The
Perishables Supplier Development (PSD) program has
continued for a second year. This project is financed by
CORFO and Walmart Chile, and is designed to develop
SME suppliers in order to reach GFSI (Global Food Safety
Initiative) standards within three years. The Food Safety
Audit program is being continued for Distribution Centers on a monthly basis, applied to the company’s 7 distribution centers.
The Health Safety Campaign “My family’s health is in my
hands” was launched in November 2012. This campaign
aims to reinforce concepts, habits and operating practices to ensure the safety of products we offer to our customers, bringing these concepts closer to our collaborators through a friendly and practical approach.
Important investments were also made for the purchasing and/or renovation of refrigerated counters, which
has improved our operating standards by ensuring that
all of the company’s formats comply with sanitary regulations.
We have participated in working groups together with
the Ministry of Health and all supermarkets in Chile as
a representative before the Chilean Supermarkets Association, ASACH A.G. Working under supervision by the
enforcement agency has helped us to get to know and
apply improvement processes and best practices focused on strengthening the operating model used by supermarkets in Chile.
Productivity and Operational Excellence
The Company focused on implementing initiatives that
are part of a Walmart project at a regional level. These are
executed by multidisciplinary teams, which are guided
by process improvement methodologies and worldclass best practices, seeking to generate improvements
in the store operation model and to help our customers
save money and live better. These initiatives focus on
personnel alignment processes and in-store merchandise management.
Our Store Brands
“Adding value to the perception of everyday low
prices”
We continued to develop our own store brands in 2012
so that our customers can gain access to a wide variety
of quality products that will help them save money and
live better.
Our Líder brand offers quality comparable to renowned
brands at a lower price. Parent´s Choice and Equate perform similarly in the hygiene, beauty and baby products
categories.
The Selección brand, developed in order to offer products with excellent quality at affordable prices, was relaunched.
We also wish to highlight products launched at the end
of the year, including fresh pasta, tomato sauce, chocolate and mustard. All of these products were imported
3 Our Strategic Pillars
Management Report
from the countries where the original recipes were developed.
The Great Value brand has been imported from Walmart
United States in order to offer our customers imported
products with superior quality at lower prices.
The Great Value brand continued to grow and consolidate, with better presence at stores and a product range
that has been defined as iconic in our customers’ purchases. Some examples of this are frozen pizzas, ice cream
and cookies, among others.
The Acuenta brand, offers customers who need to save

best price in the market.
We are certain that this portfolio of our own store brands
provides our customers quality products with a wide

Presto
Customers can use the Presto credit card to make credit
purchases at all Lider, Express de Lider, Ekono, SuperBodega aCuenta and Lider.cl, and at over 56,000 associated
stores. Services and benefits provided by Presto continue
to be consolidated from year to year as another outstanding element of our value proposal. This helps millions of
customers to make important savings in their purchases
through different initiatives.
We started to renew our image in 2012 and one of the
major objectives has been to establish emotional ties
with our customers, becoming one of the top three
credit card alternatives for women in Chile. We consequently incorporated a new image for our products
and a new communications style by incorporating Karla
Constant as our new face and by empowering the Mi
Club benefits club.
In addition, we started changing to the “New Service Model” for Presto customers. This new format replaces old
closed branches featuring supermarket aisles with an
open space and especially designed and integrated cash
registers. This new model is designed to bring us closer
to our customers and also allow us to operate the bu-

Seven branches were migrated into the new model
in late December 2012 and the conversion plan will
be completed for the rest of the branches lined up for
change in 2013.
At same time, incorporation of Presto customer service
started in order to improve customer service (CS) at Express de Lider stores.
Mi Club
This program was implemented in 2006 and has become
one of the pillars of Walmart Chile’s customer loyalty
strategy. The program offers important benefits to customers who choose to buy at the company’s supermarkets
or who make purchases using their Presto card at different associated stores that accept the card.
Program benefits were relaunched in September, incorporating new important categories for our customers.
Our customers can now use their Presto card every day
of the week, from Monday to Sunday, and accumulate
additional Mi Club Pesos in new categories such as
apparel, diapers, wine and detergent, in addition to the
already existing meat, fruit and vegetables categories.
Mi Club has become an essential tool for the value proposal we offer by rewarding customer loyalty and thus
increasing their purchasing frequency. It has also improved the segmentation and effectiveness of commercial
efforts.
Sustainability
Walmart Chile incorporates sustainability as a fundamental pillar in its day-to-day dealings, recognizing that a business can be efficient and profitable while also being

Its commitment is to management that harmoniously
integrates economic, social and environmental aspects.

3 Financial Risk Administration
Management Report
The company’s activities are exposed to different financial risks:
ʭʭ
a) Market risk
ʭʭ
b) Liquidity risk
ʭʭ
c) Credit risk
The company’s global risk management program focuses on the uncertainty of financial markets and attempts
to minimize potential adverse effects on the company’s
financial profitability. The company uses swaps to cover
some of the aforementioned risks.
Market Risk
Considering the nature of its operations, the company is
exposed to the following market risks:
Exchange rate risk
Exchange rate risk is the risk of changes in market prices
because of changing foreign currency exchange rates
affecting the Group’s income or the value of its financial
instruments. Exchange rate risk management aims to
control the aforementioned exposure due to changes
in the market for this reason at reasonable parameters
while optimizing profitability.
The functional currency used by the Group is Chilean
pesos for setting prices for its services, establishing its
balance sheet and determining effects on operating income.
The company did not have accounts receivable in foreign currency as of 31 December 2012.
Sixty-two percent of the company’s financial debt is expressed in Unidades de Fomento, 29% in Chilean pesos
and 9% in US dollars. The company had a financial debt
balance of US$ 122 million in foreign currency as of 31
December 2012.
The observed US dollar value came to CLP 479.96 as of
31 December 2012, down 8% compared to the closing
value of US$ 519.20 as of 31 December 2011.
Sensitivity analysis was executed considering the aforementioned values in order to determine how the
company’s income was affected by exchange rate variation, considering the portion not covered by the natural
hedge between assets and liabilities in foreign currency.
This was sensitized considering ±10% variations in the
observed US dollar value as of 31 December 2012.
47
The corporation had financial assets in foreign currency
amounting to US$ 40.4 million as of 31 December 2012.
Al 31 de Diciembre de 2012, la sociedad mantiene activos financieros en moneda extranjera por MMUS$40,4.

(29,849)

According to the above table, this sensitization meant
that the effect on the company’s profits could have increased (decreased) by CLP 29,849 thousand throughout
the period, in the event of ± 10% variations in the US
dollar value observed as of 31 December 2012.
Cash flow interest rate risk
The company’s interest rate risk stems from the debt it
maintains with third parties. Variable rate debt exposes
the company to the risk of cash flow interest rates. Debt
with fixed interest rates exposes the company to the risk
of interest rates with reasonable value.
In this sense, the company has low exposure to risk associated to interest rate fluctuations in the market, since
an important percentage of its debt is structured at fixed
rates, either directly or through derivative contracts.
After conducting a sensitivity analysis of the debt portion with variable rates, net of hedging, the effect on
the company’s income under a scenario in which rates
would have been 5% higher than current rates, with all
other variables remaining constant, would be losses before tax interest up by CLP 696,450.
The company has hired a Cross Currency Swap, which is
used to transform the debt in Chilean pesos to unidades
de fomento and to trasform the variable rate to a fixed
rate.
Inflation variation risk
Inflation variation risk is the risk that market price changes due to internal inflation in Chile could affect Group
revenue or the value of its current financial instruments.
Inflation risk variation management aims to control exposure to changes in the market for this reason at reasonable parameters and to optimize profitability at the
same time.
As of 31 December 2012, the company kept 62% of its
financial debt expressed in Unidades de Fomento (UF),
which produces a valuation effect compared to Chilean
pesos. In order to scope this effect with regard to income
before tax, this readjustment unit was sensitized by +/5% for next year, with all other variables remaining constant.
If the UF had increased by 5%, the effect on income before tax would have been losses amounting to CLP th
20,741,407.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is defined as the probability of monetary
loss for a corporation because of difficulties in meeting
its short-term obligations and/or difficulties when it comes to getting funding in order to continue normal operations. This means that the company may eventually be
unable to meet the contractual commitments taken on
with its creditors on time and as required, and may be
unable to execute its business plans because of the average time difference between cash in and cash out.
3 Financial Risk Administration
Management Report
Reasonable liquidity risk management means that the
company keep have enough cash and ensure that financing is available by means of enough committed credit
facilities and the capacity to liquidate market positions.
The Administration monitors the company’s cash position on a daily basis and constantly makes cash position
estimates in order to pay, prepay, refinance and/or take
out new loans in accordance with the company’s cash
flow generation capacity.
Moreover, as of 31 December 2012, the company had
duly approved and renewable short-term credit lines,
which reasonably reduced liquidity risk.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is managed by groups of customers and the
objective is to keep all loan portfolios evaluated on an
ongoing basis in order to constitute sufficient provisions
required by the eventual non-recovery of loans granted
in a timely manner.
The company evaluated the Presto portfolio as a group,
mainly due to three considerations:
ʭʭ
Loans are granted to natural persons.
ʭʭ
There is a high volume of completed transactions.
ʭʭ
The amount of credit given to each customer is low.
In order to evaluate and constitute provisions, the portfolio is broken down by types of debtors and credit
down to the levels considered to be appropriate. The
Presto portfolio currently shows only operations that can
be classified as consumption.
Losses are measured under the following accounts:
effective portfolio Provisions, Sanctions and Recoveries.
The loss ratio to be considered is determined by the quotient between the indicated accounts and the amount
loaned or sold on each occasion.
The following information is considered for this model:
ʭʭ
Normal portfolio: this is broken down into Cash Installments, Credit Installments, Revolving Debt and
Cash Advances.
ʭʭ
Renegotiated portfolio: the number of renegotiations and credit history are managed.
Investment and Financing Policies and Restriction

Walmart Chile directly and indirectly controls all of the
corporation’s capital rights. As part of the company’s integration process, the corporation Saitec S.A. changed its
firm name to Walmart Chile Inmobiliaria in 2011.
Planning and Finance
The Planning and Finance department, through its planning and studies department, is responsible for determining the company’s strategic route by means of market
understanding, evaluating potential expansion zones,
planning new locations and analyzing sector variables
that affect growth performance at a national level.
With over 25 years of experience in the development

In order to meet its objectives, Walmart Chile Inmobiliaria
divides its operations into four business areas: Planning

This division is responsible for executing real estate development required by Walmart Chile and for profitizing

and efficient business models, making good use of existing locations and developing strategic alliances with

In order to achieve this objective, a series of regular studies and analysis are conducted in order to enable a better demographic understanding of the country, expense
distribution, consumer behavior and retail sector performance.
In turn, the Procurement Division is responsible for purchasing all equipment required for the different projects
developed by the real estate business unit, which include new supermarkets and shopping centers, remodeling, expansion and new distribution centers.
Development
Once the company’s potential growth zones have been
determined, the Development department is responsible for surveying suitable locations in accordance with
market conditions required by each of the company’s
formats and for managing negotiations in order to consolidate growth in Chile, in line with Walmart’s expectations.
The process features a detailed analysis of each site, taking into consideration factors such as pedestrian access, potential store visibility, nearby housing, security
in the area and commercial development. Each of these
factors is weighted according to Walmart Chile’s own
knowledge of its operation and the value proposal for
each of its different commercial formats.
Projects
Once locations and project types have been decided, a
team of architects works with the company in order to
complete the process. In order to ensure a higher degree
of efficiency and specialization, the area divides its actions into supermarket and shopping center projects.
In 2012 the real estate division opened 28 new stores for
supermarkets (5 Ekono, 13 SuperBodega aCuenta, 3 Lider and 7 Express de Lider) and completed 419 remodeling projects. Surface area at new supermarkets opened
came to 79,807 m², of which 57,149 m² corresponds to
selling space, without including expansion.
Overall investment in new supermarket and shopping
center projects, expansion and remodeling amounted
to approximately US$ 337 million in 2012.
The Commercial Department
The Walmart Chile Inmobiliaria S.A. commercial department mostly focuses on leasing and managing
shopping centers. Consequently, once real estate development and construction has been completed, this
department places and manages stores and spaces available for lease.
The division reported over 58 million visitors at its shopping centers, highlighting Espacio Urbano 15 Norte in
Viña del Mar with nearly 16 million visitors per year.
Walmart Chile Inmobiliaria is currently one of the leading

4 Financial Services
Management by Business Segment
This division provides financing for its customersby
means of the Presto credit card for purchases at different
Walmart Chile supermarket formats and at over 56,000
associated stores throughout Chile. The card can also be
used for cash advances, consumer credit and to hire different products and services, including insurance, travel
and bill payment, among others.
The Presto Card
The Presto Card was created in May 1996 and was designed to become the most economic, convenient and
easily accessed payment alternative for the company’s
customers. The card was became the first “oapen” nonbank credit card in 2005. The Presto Card is currently
accepted from Arica to Punta Arenas in Chile, with 180
branches and service modules, as well as widespread
ATM coverage. The Presto Card portfolio consists of 1.45
million customers who prefer this card as their payment
option.
At the end of 2012, Presto is still the leading credit card
used for payment at Walmart Chile stores, reporting annual sales amounting to over CLP 340 billion between its
different formats.
Family Insurance
We continued the stategy of empowering and complementing coverage of our card outside of our stores in
2012 by means of campaigns with associated business
and large-scale alliances with drugstores and gas stations. Crosswise actions were empowered between Walmart customers, providing benefits at associated stores.
Sales at these stores accounted for 19% of overall Presto
Card sales. In addition, substantial progress in Presto
Card account collection was made in coordination with
Servifácil, with transactions up 45% compared to 2011.
Insurance
Important changes took place in the industry throughout 2012. Voluntary insurance policies were first offered
in January of this year, which was an important commercial challenge. Most of the products we offer were
renewed and the focus was always on providing greater
transparency with our customers, simplifying products
with straightforward but top-value alternatives. These
strategies allowed us to recover our sales volume.
Throughout this period, the insurance division reported
volume amounting to over CLP 36 billion in intermediate
59
premiums and revenue from commissions, which account for 10% of total income for the Financial Services
subsidiary.
Savings
The mutual funds business also went through important
regulatory changes, paving the way for the creation of
new savings products and thus continuing a distinctive
supply of goods for sale.
Consequently, new insurance products with savings
components were launched in the middle of the year,
which allow our customers to keep saving and completing these savings with the benefits of life insurance in
the event of accident or death.
Revenue Collection
In 2012 the revenue collection business segment continued to improve its services and market share, incorporating new companies where Walmart Chile customers
can pay their bills. In addition, new self service points
were replaced using state-of-the-art equipment in order to improve the customer experience. Growth held
steady in 2012, collecting of 3 million payments with
amounts comuing to over CLP 70 billion, up 45% compared to transactions and commissions reported in 2011.

4 Distribution and Logistics
Management by Business Segment
The LTS distribution and logistics
center is the unit in charge of reception, storage, distribution and transport for 71% of the products commercialized in all of the
company’s stores and formats.
LTS currently has nine distribution centers throughout
Chile. The following table describes each of these:

Walmart Chile works with over 1,380 national suppliers in
a centralized manner and has important overseas supply
sources by means of different trade agreements. Merchandise is mostly purchased immediately or by means
of short-term operations within a context of long-term
relations with suppliers.
Our main achievements in 2012 include starting integral
operations at the Lo Aguirre distribution center, which
aims to become one of the most modern distribution
centers in South America. Located in the district of Pudahuel, the surface area of this distribution center comes
to 58,000 m² and it features an automatic sorter with
maximum independent production capacity of 250,000
boxes per day, which can be increased to 320,000 over
the medium term.
This major technological advance enables the redistribution of circulation flows by modifying cost structures and
cash register replacement at our facilities, thus reducing
the company’s inventory days. In addition, productivity
is expected to increase by 30%, with less merchandise
being sent to the wrong stores.
In addition, the company continues to invest in technological developments to increase distribution center
productivity.
Walmart Chile purchasing is mainly handled by the LTS
supply area, which allows the company to make orders
required for stores considering different factors, such
as delay time for the reception of merchandise sent by
suppliers, peak demand during certain seasons of the
year, product condition, and the bridging of operating
gaps, among others.
Another important milestone in 2012 was conversion of
warehouse systems (WMS) to Wal-Mart GLS systems. The
following distribution centers successfully implemented
the new systems: Lo Aguirre, Temuco, Chillan, Antofagasta and Quilicura Apparel and Materials.

Walmart purchased a 100% stake in Food and Services
in 2011. This business segment thus contributed steady
and profitable growth to the Perishables value proposal with a constant focus on adapting EDLC by means
of efficiency and innovation for over 200 products from
the following categories: fish, flowers, prepared dishes,
confectionery and baking. In addition, funding was provided for construction of a new bakery line, substantially
increasing installed capacity at Walmart’s current facilities in Quilicura.
Mi Club Lider
Mi Club is a customer loyalty program that rewards Walmart Chile customers by accumulating and returning
money (Mi Club pesos, not points) every three months
in the form of a Savings Check. All purchases accumulate
Mi Club pesos and our customers can accumulate more
Mi Club pesos when using their Presto card at Lider and
Express de Lider. The program also rewards customers by
providing discount coupons and exclusive offers.
There were over 5 million active members of Mi Club
at the end of 2012 and over 4.8 million savings checks
were issued for customers, amounting a grand total of
approximately CLP 23.5 billion.

5 Commitment with Our Collaborators
Social Commitment
Walmart Chile employs over 45,000 people from different origins, of different ages and with different socioeconomic conditions. The company provides tools so
that its collaborators can further their personal development in a healthy manner, encouraging teamwork and
participation areas in order to grow both personally and
professionally.
Our Commitment
Encouraging and maintaining strong commitment levels is the hallmark of Walmart Chile. Commitment is the
foundation of our culture and plays an essential role in
the company’s success. High commitment levels help
collaborators feel respected, provide quality customer
service and seek levels of excellence.
Walmart Chile conducted a Collaborators Opinion Survey (COS) in 2012 for the third year in a row. This commitment assessment instrument is used in all countries
where Walmart operates. Results produced (FY13) were
satisfactory for the company and this was allegedly due
to Commitment Strengthening Program focusing on
the operation. This program aimed to strengthen our
collaborators’ commitment to the Lider and Express de
Lider formats through meetings with random groups
One of Walmart Chile’s
of workers using a guided conversation methodology
to approach the most important issues discussed in the
2011 COS.
Internal Communication
Walmart Chile uses effective internal communication
to promote the organizational culture that has become
our hallmark. Along these same lines, encouraging continuous improvement in terms of the service we provide
to our end customers in a fundamental part of our daily
efforts. Regarding this challenge, in 2012 we developed
and implemented the “put yourself in your customers’
shoes” internal communication campaign for the entire
organization. We used graphic displays and information
to make collaborators aware of concepts and good practices associated to better service, which finally marks the
difference with regard to our competition and makes
customers prefer us. In addition, we encouraged a “behavioral decalogue for excellent service”.
Faced with the mission of becoming a strategic partner
for the business, this year the Internal Communications
area adapted to the industry’s needs and contingencies
by developing a food safety campaign that was implemented in its four retail formats. The campaign slogan
was “My family’s health is in my hands” and it promoted
five basic rules for safe food handling, showing even our
collaborators’ families that this issue is of vital importance
because it involves the health of our families and customers.
These communication initiatives incorporated in 2012
are part of the overall strategy, including internal marketing campaigns, internal media and corporate events
designed to promote communication and encourage
commitment for employees working at this organization.
focal points is personnel
management and planning,
ensuring that the best people are
hired to fill vacant positions. One
of the Company’s policies is to
favor internal candidates at first
instance.
Benefits
Walmart Chile constantly ensures that different support
and guidance programs are updated regarding personal,
family and workplace aspects of daily living in order to
improve quality of life for workers and their families.
In 2012 the focus was on creating lines of communication with collaborators by means of the Agreements and
Intranet Guide, in order to communicate the benefits,
new agreements and activities designed to help make
work and family life compatible for the highest possible
number of collaborators throughout Chile.
67
As for healthcare, the company’s agreement with private
healthcare provider Isapre Consalud was expanded in order to help workers that are currently covered by Fonasa
to qualify for a health plan suited to the 7% deducted
from their salaries for healthcare and providing benefits
entailed by a healthcare plan with a private agency. In
addition, complementary health insurance received by
all collaborators with indefinite employment contracts
was renewed. This insurance guarantees policyholders
reimbursement for a high percentage of health expenses not covered by public or private health systems. The
company also encouraged incorporation of disaster insurance to help leverage steep medical expenses.
Sports activities were held in order to encourage healthy
living and these were complemented by medical examinations at public health clinics and weight-size-body
mass index measurement throughout the entire country.
In addition, activities such as massive 5-km races were
organized for collaborators, together with recreational
activities for collaborators’ children (Christmas activities
benefit over 21,000 children up to the age of twelve).
As for education, the Company offers the Scholastic Encouragement Program in order to encourage academic
excellence for collaborators and their children. 1,175
scholarships were awarded for elementary and high
school, technical and university programs. In addition,
collaborators’ children with learning disabilities attending special education establishments were awarded for
the first time. These children received a financial award
and a special diploma at a moving ceremony.
Incorporation and Development of Talent
One of Walmart Chile’s main challenges is to be the best
retail company in Chile. This means that one of its focal
points is personnel management and planning, ensuring that the best people are hired to fill vacant positions.
One of the Company’s policies is to favor internal candidates at first instance.
An outstanding project in terms of the recruitment and
development of young talent is the first yearly version of
the Walmart Chile Retail Trainee Program. This program
aims to “train professionals to develop an overall and
interrelated understanding of the Company, enabling
these professionals to contribute a strategic and innovative outlook based on this vision”. Young professionals
from renowned universities were incorporated and given the opportunity to consolidate a gradual learning
process regarding Walmart Chile’s complexity and organization in order to subsequently fill a specific position.
This program provides the following:
ʭʭ
An integral and overall understanding of Walmart
Chile
ʭʭ
Theoretical and practical instruction regarding the
different areas
ʭʭ
A mentor and HR coordinator for trainees
ʭʭ
A tutor for the young trainees
Nine professionals (five women and four men) graduated from the trainee program in July 2012. These all filled
permanent positions by October 2012.
Effective collaborator management is provided by
means of Performance Management, which is executed
using two methodologies:
Performance Evaluation:
All collaborators participate, with the exception of contact personnel (those who work directly with customers).
This evaluation assesses objectives and competencies.
Two new categories were developed in order to ensure
continuous improvement in 2012:
ʭʭ
a) Strategic Objectives were cascaded based on five
strategic pillars: Profitable Growth, the Best Customer Experience, EDLC, People-Talent Development,
Corporate Responsibility-Sustainability, Diversity and
Inclusion.
ʭʭ
b) Performance Evaluation by an Internal Customer:
Service is essential for achieving results at our company. Consequently, a pilot program was designed
this year in order to include internal customers in our
performance evaluation. The human resources area
was assigned to participate for all positions that have
two reports: a direct report and a functional report.
One of the benefits is that the people involved will
be able to further their own development as they understand how the service they provide is perceived,
identifying what should remain the same and what
they can improve.
Feedback:
Contact personnel also participate, receiving their first
feedback three months after they are hired and then
once every six months.
Leadership Program:
In order for our executives to align their leadership style
with the style specified by Walmart at an international
level, in 2012 we hosted a leadership and strategic align-
5 Commitment with Our Collaborators
Social Commitment
ment program in Chile.
Sixty-four executives belonging to the first and second
line of CEO reports attended the program. The methodology used was based on group work by real groups, as
well as coaching sessions coordinated by external consultants with outstanding expertise. Each leader attending this program completed 18.5 training hours.
Training
Contributing to its collaborators’ education and development is a priority for Walmart Chile. Integral and qualified
employees seeking excellence in their daily activities are
fundamental in order to achieve goals and objectives
that have been set.
Consequently, the Company has a Walmart Chile Studies
Program in order to ensure that its collaborators can gain
new skills and/or know-how to support their education,
personal and professional development. This program is
comprised of the following components:
The Completion of Studies Program:
This program is designed for all collaborators who wish
to complete their elementary or high school studies.
The Specialization Diplomas Program:
This program promotes collaborator training and education by means of an extensive range of post-graduate
diploma programs, whose design and contents have a
real impact on the management and development of
our business. These are designed in two extensive lines
of studies: Business Management (post-graduate diplomas in Retail Management, Commercial Management,
Project Direction and Personnel Management) and Operations Management (post-graduate diploma in Sales
Management, Customer Management and Logistics and
Operations Management).
The Higher Education Scholarships Program:
This program supports the professional development of
collaborators who are currently completing university
studies for a technical, university or graduate degree at
any of the educational institutions in Chile.
One of the Company’s main focal points is to provide
solid cultural underpinnings for our collaborators. We
have a 24-hour culture workshop known as the Walton
Institute, which was designed to make the Company’s
leaders cultural champions, able to lead and drive our
culture toward achieving results. Fifteen workshops were
hosted in 2012, amounting to a total 9,216 hours of culture training for our leaders.
As for overall training results, we wish to highlight that
340,012 classroom instruction hours were completed,
as well as 167,248 hours e-learning instruction with participation of a total 23,645 collaborators between Arica
and Punta Arenas, for a grand total of 507,260 hours of
training in 2012.
Recruitment and Selection
4,575 lateral and upward movements were made at our
company last year. 1,138 of these were the result of internal competitions.
Supporting growth is part of Walmart’s strategic pillars
and in 2012 we opened 28 stores, which required the
incorporation of 2,190 new collaborators. 18% of our
trainees were hired after their trainee period came to an
end.
69
Diversity and Inclusion
A wide range of working teams and cultivation of an
inclusive work environment are essential for Walmart
Chile’s business success. This becomes a constant pursuit
in order to make these objectives a competitive advantage for the Company. Our Mission in this area is to keep
our promise and help our customers save money so they
can live better, supporting us in the power provided by
a wide range of collaborators and providing an inclusive
work environment.
Given the importance of these issues for the Company,
the Diversity and Inclusion Division was created in 2012.
This Division aims to develop actions to promote and
facilitate the construction of a diverse work force and a
working environment in which individual differences are
accepted and appreciated. In addition, the former Council of Women Leaders became the Diversity and Inclusion Council, which is comprised of representatives from
all areas. The Council’s role is to act as a facilitator in order
to achieve the objectives set.
Working Relations
We at Walmart Chile are convinced of and focused on
developing a sustainable working relations model with
long-lasting effects. Management processes were strengthened in 2012 and the most important of these processes was collective bargaining. This bargaining process
involved over 22,000 collaborators throughout the country and successfully concluded with the signing of respective group contracts with staggered maturity dates
in 2015 and 2016. The scenario is therefore ripe for the
continuous improvement of Company-Union relations,
thus ensuring operations management for the business
over the next three years.
The area of influence for the different Walmart Chile businesses was redesigned based on strategic control of risks
involved in the compliance of labor policies (Compliance
Regulatory Risk; labor and employment) in order to build
a working relations model. The Working Relations Management has consolidated its management and control
of compliance and labor risk posed by services rendered
by the outsourcing suppliers, subcontractors and temporary services.
5 Our Commitment to the Community
Social Commitment
Walmart Chile is committed to the development of Chile
and its inhabitants, especially communities where the
company operates supermarkets and shopping centers.
The company consequently makes donations, signs
alliances and collaboration agreements with non-profit
institutions working in areas that coincide with he strategic focal points determined by our Social Responsibility
policy, whose main purpose is to help improve quality of
life for vulnerable groups of our society.
Our lines of work include encouraging the economic
empowerment of women in Chile: contributing to eradicate hunger and malnutrition, and providing a space
for moving people (our customers and our workers) to
action in order to help those in need.
One example of this commitment is the strategic alliance
between Walmart Chile and Hogar de Cristo that has
been operating for over 15 years. This Corporate Volunteers Program and Leave Your Change in Good Hands
program are part of this strategic alliance and are part of
the very heart of this company.
Women
Walmart Chile contributes to the economic empowerment of women, supporting the rehabilitation and
inclusion of women who are the victims of intrafamily
violence into the workforce, together with indigenous
microentrepreneurs, small businesses managed by women traders and development of current and potential
women suppliers, among other initiatives.
Women Entrepreneurs:
encouraging women leaders
In addition, the company supports different initiatives
that encourage the integral development of women entrepreneurs, collaborators and professionals by means of
Women Entrepreneurs, providing and opening training,
career development and leadership spaces in order to
increase opportunities for women.
AsociaRSE: Overcoming domestic violence
Together with the National Women’s Service (Sernam)
and Domos Corporation, Walmart Chile participates in
the AsociaRSE program, which aims to train and provide
psychosocial support for women who have been victims
of intrafamily violence, in order to ensure subsequent incorporation into the workforce.
71
This intervention model takes approximately 10 months
and it is designed to develop polyfunctional competencies so that women can get ahead. Walmart Chile
donated CLP 20 million for program execution in 2012
and opened the doors of its Ekono and SuperBodega
aCuenta formats to incorporate the 40 persons benefited by this year’s program as workers at both supermarkets with flexible shifts (30 hours) that help to combine
their jobs and family life.
The results are highly satisfactory and over 85% of these
people were finally incorporated into the workforce.
Hunger and Nutrition
The company collaborates to eradicate hunger and malnutrition by making ongoing substantial food donations
to the needy and by encouraging healthy nutrition for
children attending schools near our supermarkets.
The Food Network:
serving those who need it the most
Walmart Chile is a strategic partner and founder of Corporación Red de Alimentos (Food Network Corporation),
an entity that acts as a bridge between companies that
donate food and non-profit organizations that need
food for their beneficiaries.
Walmart Chile has been donating perishable and nonperishable food to this institution since August 2011. We
were able to deliver important food donations amounting to a total CLP 316,107,524.
Educating for Chile
The company supports Fundación Mar de Chile in its
efforts to create awareness regarding Chile’s national
maritime heritage and to promote the consumption
of fish and seafood by elementary school students at
schools in vulnerable sectors.
Coverage provided by the “Educating for Chile” program
amounted to an approximate total of 6,700 fifth grade
students from a total 106 schools between Arica and
Punta Arenas. Fundación Mar de Chile brought together
parent/guardian associations, visited each class participating in the program and made educational material
and multimedia presentations developed especially for
the program. We wish to highlight that each of the Lider
stores that participated in the program made its facilities
available for the organization every time these were needed, working together with Fundación Mar de Chile in
order to make the initiative a big success.
Strategic Alliance with Hogar de Cristo
The company has been supporting the mission of Hogar
de Cristo over the last 15 years by means of the Corporate Volunteers and Leave Your Change in Good Hands
programs, among other collaborative measures.
Corporate Volunteers
The company uses this initiative to invite collaborators
from different Lider and Express de Lider stores throughout the country to sponsor works managed by Hogar
de Cristo throughout Chile.
The members of our company are seriously involved. In
2012, a total 122 Hogar de Chile projects were constantly
visited by our collaborators, who donated their time, care
and love.
5 Our Commitment to the Community
Social Commitment
Leave Your Change in Good Hands
Thanks to an alliance established between Walmart Chile
and Hogar de Cristo in 1996, the company invited its customers to make a donation to the foundation with each
purchase, with a serious commitment made by each of
the cashiers at our stores.
This program is one of the most widely recognized social
support actions by our customers and collaborators. The
program collected CLP 746,203,611 in 2012, all of which
was delivered to Hogar de Cristo.
Funds collected directly benefit people at social risk,
such as abandoned senior citizens, young people with
addiction problems, the victims of intrafamily violence,
preschoolers and infants, among others.
The Growing with You Program
The company funds neighbor associations, parent centers, sports clubs, corporations and foundations that
approach locals asking for donations as one way of improving quality of life in communities where are supermarkets are located.
Projects presented are pre-selected by a Committee
at our stores and then one of the company’s Donation
Committees, which approves or rejects donations proposed. In 2012 a total of 234 projects were approved,
amounting to CLP 142,044,147. Sixty-one of these projects were requested by neighbor associations, sports
clubs, NGOs and foundations, parent associations, youth
organizations and groups. Another 140 projects were
proposed by Hogar de Cristo volunteers program and 33
projects were proposed by Refugio de Cristo volunteers.
These projects were designed to empower monthly
visits by volunteers for projects focusing on improving
infrastructure for projects executed by both institutions
and thus help to improve quality of life for project beneficiaries.
This program is a tool that helps us to get to know different organizations representing the communities living
around our stores, understand their needs on a first hand
basis and communicate our motivations as company in
order to further projects to favor our customers’ welfare.
5 Our Sustainability Commitment
Social Commitment
73
We at Walmart Chile believe that development of an efficient and profitable business is based on caring for the
world we live in. We want to give our children a better
and cleaner world and therefore our business must be
sustainable, encouraging care of people and the environment. As a company we have proposed this challenge at a global level and everyone at Walmart Chile
works hard each day to make this world a better place.
We have consequently incorporated sustainability by
means of four pillars: People, Products, Energy and Waste.
People
Walmart Chile promotes sustainability culture by disseminating contents and training its collaborators. In
addition, the My Sustainable Plan initiative encourages
collaborators to include sustainable practices in their
personal lives and with their families.
Products
My sustainable plan is a Company program that invites
collaborators to commit to simple and concrete sustainable actions in their daily lives. These help to care for the
environment improve quality of life and human relations
with families, at work and with the community.
We at Walmart Chile are working to bring increasingly
more sustainable products into our sales areas. We do
not want our customers to have to choose between a
product they can pay for and another product that is
good for their families and for the planet when making
a purchase.
In keeping with this concept, we launched the AutoCompartido campaign, a car pooling initiative designed
to optimize vehicle use by our support collaborators in
order to reduce the carbon footprint produced by commuting and to generate savings for the company.
Consequently, in April 2012 we launched the Consortium for Sustainability in Chile, whose Executive Secretariat is headquartered at Fundación Chile. This initiative
seeks to work for a more sustainable world through better products, services and consumption habits.
In 2012 we incorporated the concepts of sustainability
directly into the operation by training the collaborators
at our stores to handle liquid waste. This program trained over 1,200 collaborators in 2012 and we expect to
train over 4,000 collaborators in 2013, thus guaranteeing
standard compliance and the improvement of operating
practices.
Creation of the Consortium for Sustainability in Chile is a
major milestone for the country, in that it brings together
efforts put forth by companies, universities, government
agencies and non-governmental organizations in order
to improve their environmental and social performance
in different process stages.
more than
1,200
more than
4,000
associates were trained
in sustainability in 2012.

5 Our Sustainability Commitment
Social Commitment
The final and future objectives of these joint efforts are to
provide information to consumers regarding the sustainability of products and services they consume so that
they can incorporate sustainability criteria in their purchasing decisions, thus feeding a virtuous cycle of sustainable production and consumption.
In turn, we encourage our suppliers to seek higher and
higher sustainability standards for the practices and
products, such as reducing packaging material and optimizing transport, as well as the use of sustainable raw
materials, always considering processes from their very
origin and throughout the entire production chain.
Energy
In keeping with Walmart’s global objective to supply all
of its operations using renewable energies, in 2012 we
announced a tender to supply approximately one-third
of our company’s power using non-conventional renewable energies (NCRE). Bids were being pre-qualified
at the end of 2012 and contracts will be awarded in mid2013.
Waste
One of the company’s main domestic and global objectives is to completely eliminate final disposal of waste
produced by our supermarkets and thus reduce our resource consumption and save money for our customers.
In keeping with this objective, this year we have made
progress with the back-office recycling of cardboard and
stretch film discarded after unpacking the products we
commercialize. We have also installed a used plastic bag
collection system at our stores.
This provides more raw materials for manufacturing plastic bags for our customers. These bags currently contain
75% recycled material, the first of their kind in Chile, and
are certified by Universidad de Chile’s research center
IDIEM.
We have continued testing and installing energy efficiency technologies at our stores and remodeling projects throughout 2012. We are currently participating in a
research project with Universidad Católica’s engineering
firm DICTUC about the possibilities of improving air-conditioners’ energy efficiency by using green roof plants.

Report of Independent Auditors
(A free translation of the original report issued in Spanish)
To the Shareholders of
Walmart Chile S.A.
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Walmart Chile S.A. and affiliates (“the Company”), which comprise the
balance sheets as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related statements of comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’
equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in conformity with International
Financial Reporting Standards; this includes the design, implementation , and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in Chile. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the
financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant
to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate
in the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, based on our audits, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Walmart Chile S.A. and affiliates as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows
for the years then ended in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards.

effect as of 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011,
considering Securities and Insurance Supervisor (hereinafter SVS) additional information requirements, which
do not contradict IFRS, and which are uniformly applied
to all periods presented in these financial statements.
The information contained in these consolidated financial statements is the responsibility of the group’s Board
of Directors, which expressly states that it is aware of the
information contained in these consolidated financial
statements and is responsible for the information contained in these financial statements, as well as the application of the principles and criteria included in the IFRS and
standards issued by the SVS. These financial statements
were approved by the Board of Directors 27 March 2013.
2.1 Consolidated financial statements
These consolidated financial statements for Walmart Chile S.A. and its subsidiaries for the fiscal year ending 31
December 2012 have been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and
their interpretations in effect as of 31 December 2012
and considering Securities and Insurance Supervisor
(SVS) additional information requirements, which do not
contradict IFRS.
2.2 Basis of measurement
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the historical cost principle, except for the valuation of certain financial assets and liabilities (including derivative financial instruments) that are
valued at fair value. (See note on financial instruments).
Preparation of these consolidated financial statements in
accordance with IFRS requires the use of certain critical
accounting calculations. It also requires the Administration to exercise judgment in the process of applying the
Corporation’s accounting policies. In the note on managing estimates and critical judgment or criteria, we have
included information about areas that require a greater
degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where the
hypotheses and estimates are significant for the consolidated financial statements.
The consolidated financial statements are presented
using income statements by function and the consolidated indirect cash flow statement.
Some comparative financial statement balances from
2011 were reclassified in order to ensure these would
be consistent with the 31 December 2012 financial statements.
2.3 Functional and presentation currency
Consolidated financial statements are presented in Chilean pesos, which is the Corporation’s functional and
presentation currency. All of the group’s corporations based in Chile and the United States have determined that
89
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
their functional currency is the Chilean peso and items included in the financial statements for each entity are measured
in Chilean pesos. The functional currency of subsidiaries based in Peru is the Peruvian nuevo sol, while subsidiaries based
in China use US dollars, as indicated in note 3.4. All information is presented in thousands of Chilean pesos and has been
rounded to the nearest unit, unless otherwise indicated.
2.4 New standards and interpretations issued. Invalid standards and interpretations.
At the date these consolidated financial statements were issued, certain amendments, improvements and interpretations
have been published. These came into force during the 2012 fiscal year and have been adopted by the Corporation. These
standards became mandatory as of the dates indicated below:

The new standards, improvements and/or amendments
are described as follows:
IFRS 1
“First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards”
Issued in December 2010, this discusses exemptions due
to severe hyperinflation. It allows companies whose transition date comes after functional currency normalization to value assets and liabilities at fair value as attributed costs and to remove fixed date requirements. It also
adjusts the fixed date included in IFRS 1 to the transition
date for operations involving the reduction of financial
assets and assets or liabilities to fair value for income under initial recognition.
IFRS 7
“Financial Instruments: Disclosures”
Issued in October 2010, this standard increases disclosure requirements for transactions involving the transfer of
financial assets. No comparative information is required
for the first year of application.
IAS 12
“Income Taxes”
Issued in December 2010, this amendment provides an
exception to the general principles of IAS 12 for investment properties measured using the fair value model
contained in IAS 40 “Investment property”. The exception also applies to investment property acquired in a
business merger if the purchaser applies the fair value
model contained in IAS 40 after the business merger.
This amendment incorporates the assumption that investment properties valued at fair value are realized
through sale and therefore a tax rate must be applied
to temporary differences stemming from these for sales
operations. Early adoption is allowed.
IAS 1
“Presentation of Financial Statements”
Issued in June 2011. The main change in this amendment is that Other Comprehensive Income must be classified and grouped, determining if these will be potentially reclassified for income in subsequent periods. Early
adoption is allowed.
In addition, at the date that these consolidated financial
statements were issued, amendments, improvements
and interpretations of current standards have been published. These have not entered into force and the Cor-
91

The Corporation’s administration believes that none of
these standards will have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements when applied, if required.
IFRS 11
“Joint arrangements”
IFRS 11 replaces IAS 31 Interests in joint ventures and IAS
13 Jointly controlled entities - non-monetary contributions by venturers. IFRS 11 uses some of the same terms
used in IAS 31, but with different meanings. Whereas IAS
31 identifies three types of joint ventures, IFRS 11 describes two types of joint arrangements (joint ventures and
joint operations) when there is joint control. Since IFRS
11 uses the principle of control from IFRS 10 to identify
control, the determination of whether there is joint control may change. In addition, IFRS 11 removes the option of using proportionate consolidation to account for
jointly controlled entities (JCEs). Instead, JECs that meet
the definition of joint ventures must be accounted for
using the equity method. For joint operations, which include jointly controlled assets, former jointly controlled
operations and initial jointly controlled operations (JCEs),
an entity must declare its existing assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. The issuing of IFRS 11 changed IAS
28 to a limited extent regarding issues related to asso-
01-01-2015
ciated entities and control entities available for the sale
and changes of interests remaining in associated entities
and jointly controlled entities, which must be disclosed
in that event.
IFRS 12
“Disclosure of interests in other entities”
IFRS 12 includes all disclosures previously described in
IAS 27 related to consolidation and also disclosures previously included in IAS 31 and IAS 28. These disclosures
are referred to in interests related to an entity, joint arrangements and structured entities and associates. A number of new disclosures are also required, which must be
disclosed in that event.
IFRS 13
“Fair value measurement”
IFRS 13 establishes standard guidelines as to how to
measure fair value, when this is required or allowed by
IFRS. This does not change when an entity is required
to use fair value. The standard changes the definition of
fair value - Fair value: The price that would be received
to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date (a starting price). In addition, this standard
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
incorporates new disclosures, which must be disclosed
in that event.
IAS 19
“Employee benefits”
On 16 June 2011 the IASB published amendments to IAS
19, Employee Benefits, which changed accounting requirements for set benefit plans and termination benefits. These amendments required recognition of changes
in obligations for specified benefits and in plan assets
when these take place, eliminating the broker focus and
accelerating the recognition of past services. Changes
in the obligatory nature of specified benefits and plan
assets are broken down into three components: service
costs, net interest over net liabilities (assets) for specified
benefits and net liability (asset) remediation for specified
benefits. Net interest is calculated using a return rate for
high quality corporate bonds. This could be less than
the rate currently used to calculate expected return over
plan assets, leading to lower profits during the fiscal year.
These amendments are applicable to annual periods
starting on or after 1 January 2013 and early application
is allowed. Retrospective application is required with certain exceptions, which must be disclosed in that event.
IAS 28
“Investments in associates and joint ventures”
Issued in May 2011, IAS 28 Investments in associates and
joint ventures determines accounting requirements for
investments in associates and establishes requirements
for application of the interest method when accounting
for investments in associates and joint ventures, which
must be disclosed in that event.
IFRIC 20
“Stripping costs in the production phase of a surface
mine”
Issued in October 2011, this standard regulates stripping
costs in the production phase of a mine as an asset, as
well as initial and subsequent measurement of this asset.
In addition, the interpretation requires mining entities
that present financial statements in accordance with
IFRS to punish existing stripping costs assets against accumulated profits when these cannot be attributed to
an identifiable component of a deposit, which must be
disclosed in that event.
IFRS 7
“Financial instruments: disclosures”
An amendment to IFRS 7 was issued in December 2011.
This amendment requires entities to disclose the effects
or possible effects of financial instrument compensation
agreements on the entity’s financial position in financial information. This standard is applicable starting 1
January 2013, which must be disclosed in that event.
IFRS 1
“First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards”
Issued in March 2012. This provides an exception with
retroactive application to the recognition and measurement of loans received from the Government at the
transaction date. Early adoption is allowed, which must
be disclosed in that event.
IAS 1
Presentation of financial statements
“Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle”, issued in May
2012, amended paragraphs 10, 38 and 41, eliminated
paragraphs 39-40 and added paragraphs 38A-38D and
40A-40D, which clarify the difference between voluntary
additional comparative information and the minimum
comparative information required. The minimum comparative period generally required is the former period.
An entity is required to include comparative information in notes related to the financial statements when
this entity voluntarily provides comparative information
beyond the minimum comparative period required. The
additional comparative period does not need to contain
a complete set of financial statements. In addition, initial balance sheet amounts (known as the third balance)
must be presented under the following circumstances:
when an entity changes its accounting policies; makes
retroactive restatements or reclassifications, and this is
the change that exerts a material effect on the balance
sheets. The initial amount stated in the balance sheets
would be at the start of the former period. However, in
contrast with voluntary comparative information, related
notes do not have to be included in the third balance.
Entities will be required to apply this amendment retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies,
Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors for annual
periods starting 1 January 2013. Early application is
allowed, which must be disclosed in that event.
IAS 16
“Property, plant and equipment”
“Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle”, issued in May
2012, amended paragraph 8. This amendment clarifies
that replacement parts and auxiliary equipment that
comply with the definition of property, plant and equipment are not inventory. Entities will be required to apply
this amendment retrospectively in accordance with IAS
8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates
and Errors for annual periods starting 1 January 2013.
Early application is allowed, which must be disclosed in
that event.

IAS 34
“Interim financial information”
“Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle”, issued in May
2012, amended paragraph 16A. This amendment clarifies requirements in IAS 34 related to information held by
operating segments regarding total assets and liabilities
for each of the operating segments in order to improve
coherence with the requirements of IFRS 8 Operating
Segments. The amended paragraph 16A establishes
that the total assets and liabilities for a specific operating
segment shall only be disclosed when the amounts are
regularly measured by senior management and when
there is a material change in how information disclosed
in the former financial statements is compared for this
operating segment. Entities will be required to apply this
amendment retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and
Errors for annual periods starting 1 January 2013. Early
application is allowed, which must be disclosed in that
event.
IAS 32
“Financial instruments: presentation”
“Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle”, issued in May
2012, amended paragraphs 35, 37 and 39 and added paragraph 35A, indicating that tax for income shared with
an entity’s shareholders is to be accounted for in accordance with IAS 12 Income taxes. This amendment eliminated the existing income tax requirements in IAS 32
and requires entities to apply IAS 12 requirements to any
tax for income distributed to an entity’s shareholders.
An entity will apply these amendments retrospectively
in accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes
in Accounting Estimates and Errors for annual periods
starting as of 1 January 2013. Early application is allowed,
which must be disclosed in that event.
Amendments to IAS 32 issued in December 2011 are
designed to clear up differences regarding the relative
application of compensation and to reduce the level of
diversity in current practices. This standard is applicable
as of 1 January 2014 and early adoption is allowed.
IFRS 10
“Consolidated Financial Statements”, IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities”, IAS 27 “Separate Financial Statements”
Amendments made to IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial
Statements, IFRS 12 Disclosure of Participation in Other
Entities and IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements stem
from the Exposure Draft on Investment Entities published in August 2011. These amendments define investment entities and introduce an exception for consolidating certain subsidiaries belonging to investment
entities. These amendments require investment entities
to assess these subsidiaries at fair value with changes
made to income statements in accordance with IFRS 9
Financial Instruments in their separate consolidated financial statements. These amendments also introduce
new disclosure requirements regarding investment entities in IFRS 12 and in IAS 27. Entities are required to apply
amendments to annual periods starting 1 January 2014,
which is to be disclosed in this case. Early application is
allowed.
IFRS 9
“Financial Instruments”
This standard introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets, allowing
early application. It requires all financial assets to be fully
classified based on the entity’s business model for managing financial assets and contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets. Financial assets under this standard are measured at either amortized cost or fair value.
Only financial assets classified as having been measured
at amortized cost shall be tested for depreciation. Their
application is effective for annual periods starting on or
after 1 January 2015, which is to be disclosed in this case.
Early adoption is allowed.
3. Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies established hereinafter have
been consistently applied to the consolidated financial
statements and have been consistently applied to all of
the group’s companies.
3.1 Basis of consolidation
3.1.1 Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are defined as all entities that the Walmart
Chile Group controls. When determining whether the
company controls another entity, the existence and
effect of potential voting rights that are actually exercisable or convertible are taken into consideration. Subsidiaries are consolidated as of the date when control is
transferred and they are excluded from consolidation at
the time such control terminates.
The acquisition method is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries. Acquisition cost is the reasonable
value of assets delivered, equity instruments issued and
liabilities incurred or assumed the date of the transaction.
Identifiable assets acquired and the identifiable liabilities
and contingencies assumed in a business merger are initially valued at their fair value at the date of acquisition,
regardless the extent of minority interests. Acquisition
93
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
cost in excess of the company’s fair value in the share of
identifiable net assets required is recognized as purchased goodwill. If the acquisition cost is lower than the fair
value of the acquired subsidiary’s net assets, the difference is directly recognized in the income statement.
Consolidation eliminates inter-company transaction
balances, as well as unrealized expenses and income
for transactions between consolidated entities. Losses
stemming from a transaction between consolidated entities are also eliminated, unless the transaction provides
evidence of loss due to depreciation of the transferred
asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries are modified
when necessary in order to ensure uniformity with policies adopted by Walmart Chile Group.
The Corporation does not own any special purpose entities.
The direct, first-line subsidiaries included in the consolidation and related subsidiaries from the different business segments are listed as follows:

The subsidiary Inversiones Walmart Chile Ltda. purchased the remaining 50% stake in the subsidiary companies Alimentos y Servicios S.A. and Inversiones Solpacific
S.A. 15 July 2011. These corporations are therefore presented as consolidated in these financial statements.
A reorganization process for the retail segment corporations was completed in 2011. This process meant the
merger of all corporations operating under the supermarket and hypermarket formats into two new legal
entities that currently operate under these formats. This
process simplified the Walmart Chile S.A. corporate structure in order to support the company’s growth, make the
taxation process more efficient and provide flexibility for
future needs in the business. As part of this process, two
new corporations called Inversiones Pacifico LLC and
Walmart Chile Comercial LLC were created. These respectively purchased a minority stake in Inversiones Walmart Chile Ltda. and Walmart Chile Comercial S.A.
The company completed a corporate reorganization
process for the financial segment in 2012. This process
divided Sociedad Administradora de Créditos Comercial
Presto Ltda. and a new corporation bearing the same
name was founded. The new corporation is responsible
for managing the Presto card while the former Sociedad
95
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
Administradora de Créditos Comercial Presto Ltda. was
renamed Inversiones Presto Tres Ltda. Its corporate purpose and firm name were subsequently modified and
the company became Walmart Chile Comercial Ltda. In
addition, as part of this process, the corporation Inversiones Cordilleras LLC was founded. This corporation purchased a majority stake in Inversiones Renta Presto S.A.
3.1.2 Transactions and uncontrolled interests
The Walmart Chile Group applies the policy of treating
transactions with uncontrolled interests as if these were
transactions with Group shareholders. In the case of
purchasing non-controlling interests, the difference between any compensation paid and the corresponding
share in the book value of net assets purchased from the
subsidiary are recognized in equity. Income and losses
due to write-offs that benefit the minority share are also
recognized in equity, as long as control is maintained.
3.2 Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all of the entities that the Walmart Chile Group influences a significant influence on but does
not control. This is generally accompanied by an interest
amounting to between 20% and 50% of the voting shares. Investment in subsidiaries is accounted for by means
of the equity method and this is initially recognized by
cost. Walmart Chile Group’s investment in subsidiaries includes purchased goodwill identified in the acquisition,
net of any losses due to accumulated depreciation.
The Walmart Chile Group’s participation in losses or gains
after the purchase of its related companies or subsidiaries is recognized in the balance sheets by function and
is included in the “Participation in income (loss) of subsi-
Date
CLP / US$
diaries accounted for using the income equity method”
line item, and its participation in equity movement after
the purchase that does not include results is assigned
to the corresponding equity reserves (and indicated as
corresponding in the other comprehensive income statements).
When the Walmart Chile Group’s participation in an
associate’s losses are equivalent to or higher than its
interest in the same, including any other uninsured account receivable, the Walmart Chile Group does not recognize additional losses, unless it has incurred in obligations and made payment on behalf of the associate.
Unrealized gains from transactions between the Walmart
Chile Group and its related companies are eliminated based on the Corporation’s interest share in these related
companies.
Unrealized losses are also eliminated, unless the transaction provides evidence of losses due to depreciation of
the asset transferred. The accounting policies of its subsidiaries are modified when required in order to ensure
uniformity with policies adopted by the Corporation.
Dilution gains or losses in related companies or subsidiaries are recognized in the comprehensive income statements.
There are no subsidiaries as of 31 December 2012 and 31
December 2011.
3.3 Exchange rate and indexation units
Assets and liabilities held in foreign currencies and those set in unidades de fomento are presented at the following respective exchange rates and closing values:

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
3.4 Transactions in foreign currency
Transactions in foreign currency are expressed at the
exchange rate on the transaction date. Monetary assets
and liabilities in foreign currencies at the balance date
are expressed in Chilean pesos at the exchange rate on
that date. Exchange rate differences arising from currency translation are recognized in the income statements
by function. Non-monetary assets and liabilities measured at historical cost on the basis of foreign currency are
translated using the exchange rate on the transaction
date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies and valued at their fair value are translated to
Chilean pesos at the exchange rate at which said fair value was determined.
The financial statements of “Inmobiliaria D&S Perú S.A.C”,
“Comercial D&S Perú S.A.C” and “South Pacific Trade Ltda.”
whose functional currency is the Peruvian nuevo sol
(PEN) and the US dollar (US$), respectively, are converted
into presentation currency as follows:
ʭʭ
The assets and liabilities of each financial statement
presented are converted at the exchange rate at the
closure of each period or fiscal year;
ʭʭ
Income and expenses for each income account are
converted at average exchange rates (unless the average is not a reasonable approximation of the accumulative effect of exchange rates as of the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are
converted on the transaction dates); and
ʭʭ All resulting exchange rate differences are
recognized as a separate component of net
equity, in the “Other reserves” line item.
3.5 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost and
presented net of their accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment, except for land, which is not
subject to depreciation.
This cost includes the acquisition price and all costs directly related to the location of the asset at the place
and the conditions necessary so that it can operate as
planned by the Management, if this exists, as well as the
initial estimate of the costs of dismantling, removing or
partially removing the asset, as well as remediation of
the place where it is located, for which the Corporation
is responsible.
Construction or works underway include, among other,
the following concepts incurred during the construction
period:
ʭʭ
Financial costs related to external financing that are
directly attributable to construction. Activated financial costs are obtained by applying the weighted average cost of long-term financing associated to parent
company loans to average cumulative investment
susceptible to non-financed activation specifically, as
indicated in IAS 23R.
ʭʭ
Personnel costs and other of an operating nature directly related to construction.
Expansion, modernization or improvement costs that represent an increase in productivity, capacity or efficiency
and therefore an extension of the useful life of goods are
capitalized as greater cost of the corresponding goods.
Periodic maintenance, conservation and repair costs are
recorded against income as a cost for the fiscal period
in which they are incurred. A property, plant and equipment element is written off at the time of its disposal or
when future economic benefits are no longer expected
from its use or disposal. Any profit or loss arising from
this asset being written off (calculated as the difference
between the net value of disposal and the asset’s book
value) is included in the income statements by function
in the fiscal year in which the asset is written off.
Depreciation is calculated over the depreciable amount,
which corresponds to the cost of an asset or another
amount that substitutes for the cost, minus its residual
value.
Depreciation is recognized in income statements in a linear fashion over the estimated useful lives of each part
of a property, plant or equipment item, since these more
accurately represent the exception consumption pattern
of future economic benefits related to the asset. Assets
leased under financial lease contracts are depreciated
over the shortest period between the lease and their
useful lives, unless it is reasonably certain that the Group
will acquire the property at the end of the lease period.
When parts of a property, plant and equipment item
have different useful lives, these are recorded as separate
property, plant and equipment items (important components).
Estimated useful lives for the current and comparative
periods are listed as follows:
ʭʭ
Buildings:
50 years
ʭʭ
Terminations:
15 years
ʭʭ
Installations:
15 to 20 years
ʭʭ
Equipment at properties:
15 to 20 years
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
ʭʭ
Exterior works:
20 years
ʭʭ
Vehicles:
4 years
ʭʭ
Machinery:
4 to 5 years
ʭʭ
Furniture and office supplies: 3 to 4 years
Methods used to determine depreciation, useful lives
and residual values are revised in each fiscal year and
prospectively adjusted if necessary.
When the value of an asset is higher than its estimated
recoverable amount, its value immediately declines to its
recoverable value through the application of depreciation tests.
Losses and gains from property, plant and equipment
sales are calculated by comparing income obtained to
the book value and are then included in the income statements by function.
3.6 Investment property
Investment property is real estate (land and buildings)
held to obtain economic benefits from rental or capital
appreciation. Investment property and investment property under construction are recorded at cost and presented net of their accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment, with the exception of land, which
is not subject to depreciation.
Acquisition cost and all other costs associated to investment property, as well as the effects of depreciation and
treatment of asset write-offs are recorded in the same
way as property, plant and equipment, as indicated in
foregoing point 3.5.
Estimated economic useful lives for the main elements
of investment property are listed as follows:
ʭʭ
Buildings:
50 years
ʭʭ
Terminations:
15 years
ʭʭ

cupation by an owner or if development is started with
expectations to sell and the fair value as of the reclassification date becomes its cost for subsequent accounting.
3.7 Intangible assets
3.7.1 Purchased goodwill
Purchased goodwill is the difference between excess
acquisition cost over the fair value of Walmart Chile
Group’s share in the identifiable net assets of subsidiaries
or related companies at the date of acquisition. Purchased goodwill related to acquisition of subsidiaries in included in the goodwill line item.
Purchased goodwill related to acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in investment in subsidiaries, accounted for using the equity method, and is subjected to
impairment testing together with the total amount of
associated investment. Purchased goodwill is separately subjected to impairment testing on an annual basis
and is valued at cost minus accumulated losses due to
depreciation. Gains and losses from the sale of an entity
include the book value of purchased goodwill related to
the entity sold.
The cash-generating unit is defined as the smallest group
of assets for which independent cash flow can be identified. In this context, the Corporation has determined that
this condition is met at each individual store considered.
Purchased goodwill is assigned to cash-generating units
for impairment testing. This is distributed between those cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating
units expected to benefit from the business merger that
created the goodwill.
The existence of purchased goodwill depreciation is
measured on an annual basis.
The greater value from acquisition of an investment or
business merger is credited directly to the income statements by function.
Purchased goodwill does not have a specific useful life.
The residual values of assets, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed when preparing financial
statements each year. These are adjusted if required as a
change in prospective estimates.
3.7.2 Commercial rights and trademarks
Commercial rights and trademarks have an indefinite
useful life and are recorded at cost minus accumulated
depreciation. Impairment testing is conducted annually
at an individual level or at the cash-flow generating level.
Transfers to investment property only occur when there
is a change in use evidenced by the end of occupation
by owners, the start of an operating lease to another party or the end of construction or development. Transfers
from investment property only occur when there is evidence of a change in use evidenced by the start of oc-
3.7.3 Computer programs
Computer software licenses acquired and developed by
third parties are capitalized on the basis of costs incurred
to acquire and prepare for using a specific program minus amortization and losses due to accumulated depre-
97
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
ciation. Amortization is calculated on a linear basis and
its effect on income is presented in the administrative
expenses line item.
The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods range between 4 and 6 years.
Expenses related to the development or maintenance of
computer programs are recognized as expenses when
these are incurred.
3.8 Financing costs
Interest costs incurred for construction of any qualified
asset classified under the property, plant and equipment
line item are capitalized over the period of time required
in order to complete and prepare the asset for the intended use, according to IAS 23R. Other interest costs are
recorded in income (expenses).
3.9 Impairment of non-financial assets
Assets with an indefinite useful life are not subject to
amortization and are subjected to impairment testing
on an annual basis. Assets subject to depreciation or
amortization are subjected to impairment testing when
some event or change in circumstances indicates that
the book value may not be recoverable.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating
unit is the greater value between its value in use and its
fair value, minus sale costs. In order to determine value
in use, future estimated cash flows are deducted from
its present value using a discount rate before tax that reflects current market assessment over the temporary value of money and the specific risks an asset may have. In
order to assess depreciation, assets that cannot be individually tested are grouped together in the smallest asset
group that generates cash inflows from continued use,
which are independent of cash inflows from other assets
or asset groups (the “cash generating unit”). Depending
on the date when an operating segment’s value is tested for the purpose of goodwill impairment testing, the
cash-generating units that have been assigned goodwill
are added together so that the level impairment is tested
at reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes.
The Group’s corporate assets do not generate separate
cash inflows. If there is any indication that a corporate
asset may be impaired, the recoverable amount is determined and assigned for the cash-generating unit the
corporate asset belongs to.
Impairment is recognized if the book value of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable
amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the income statements.
Impairment losses recognized in relation to cash-generating units are assigned first, in order to reduce the book
value of any goodwill assigned to the units and then to
reduce the book value of other assets in the unit (group
of units) on a pro rata basis.
Impairment loss for goodwill is not reverted. With regard to other assets, impairment losses recognized in
previous periods are evaluated at least once per year in
pursuit of any indication that the loss has been reduced
or has disappeared. An impairment loss is reverted if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is only
reverted to the extent that the book value of the asset
does not exceed the book value that would have been
determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if the
impairment loss had not been recognized.
Goodwill that is part of the book value of an investment
in a related company is not recognized separately and
is consequently not subjected to separate impairment
tests. Instead, the total amount invested in a subsidiary
is tested for impairment as a unique asset when there is
objective evidence that the investment may be impaired.
As indicated in the note on criteria for property, plant and
equipment, when the value of an asset is greater than its
estimated recoverable amount, its value is immediately
reduced to the recoverable amount through recognition of impairment losses. Impairment losses amounting to CLP 1,841,399,000 were declared 31 December
2012. Property, plant and equipment impairment losses
amounting to CLP 1,476,560,000 were declared 31 December 2011.
3.10 Categories of non-derivative financial instruments
The Walmart Chile Group classifies its financial assets in
the following categories: at fair value through profit or
loss, loans and accounts receivable, and available for sale.
Classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines
the classification of its financial assets at the time of initial
recognition.
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
3.10.1 Financial assets at fair value through profit or
loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for negotiation or designated as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss when
initially recognized.
A financial asset is classified in this category if it is acquired mainly for the purpose of selling the asset in the
short term.
Assets in this category are classified as current assets.
3.10.2 Loans and accounts receivable
Loans and accounts receivable are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or ascertainable payments that are
not quoted on the active market.
Assets in this category are classified as current, except for
those with maturities longer than 12 months from the
date that the balance sheets were issued, which are classified as non-current assets.
Loans and accounts receivable include trade and other
accounts receivable and receivable rights.
3.10.3 Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives assigned to this category or which are not assigned to any
of the other categories.
These are included in non-current assets unless management plans to dispose of the investment within 12
months from the date the financial statements were issued.
3.10.4 Recognition and measurement of financial assets
Acquisition and disposal of financial assets are recognized at the negotiation date, which is to say the date
when the Walmart Chile Group commits to acquire or
sell the asset.
Financial assets are initially recognized at their fair value
plus transaction costs, for all financial assets not charged
at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs include fees and commissions paid to agents (including
employees who act as sales agents), consultants and
intermediaries, rates established by regulatory agencies
and stock exchanges, as well as taxes and other duties to
which the transaction is subject. Transaction costs do not
include premiums or discounts for debt, financial costs,
maintenance costs or internal administrative costs.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at their fair value and transaction costs
are changed to income.
Financial assets are written off for accounting purposes
when the rights to receive cash flows from investments
have expired or have been transferred and the Walmart
Chile Group has substantially transferred all risk and benefits of ownership.
Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at
fair value through profit or loss are recorded at their fair
value (with a balancing entry in other comprehensive income and income, respectively).
Loans and accounts receivable are recorded at their
amortized cost according to the effective interest rate
method.
The effective interest rate method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or liability
(or a group of financial assets or liabilities) and charged
to financial income or expense throughout the relevant
period. The effective interest rate is a discount rate that
ensures that the estimated cash flows to be received or
paid over the expected lifetime of the financial instrument (or, when appropriate, over a shorter period) are
the same as the net book amount of the financial asset
or liability. In order to calculate the effective interest rate,
an entity will estimate cash flows considering all contractual conditions for the financial instrument.
Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value
of financial assets to fair value through profit or loss are
included in the income statements by function for the
fiscal period in which these changes in fair value are generated.
Dividend income from financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss and available for sale are recognized in the income statements by function in the other
income line item once the Walmart Chile Group’s right to
receive dividend payments has been established.
3.11 Derivative financial instruments
The Walmart Chile Group uses derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swap and currency forward
contracts to hedge against risks related to fluctuations in
interest rates and exchange rates that affect its financial
obligations to banks and related companies. These derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair
value at the date the respective contract is signed and
are measured again at fair value thereafter. Derivatives
are recorded in the other financial assets line item if they
have a positive value and in the other financial liabilities
line item if they have a negative fair value.
Any profit or loss arising from changes in the fair value
99
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
of derivatives during the fiscal year is directly recorded in
the income statement by function in the income statements by function in the other income or expenses line
item.
These instruments were designated for negotiation
at the time of issue. However, these provide hedging
against financial risk.
The Corporation has declared that there are no implicit
derivatives in its contracts as of 31 December 2012 and
31 December 2011.
3.12 Depreciation of financial assets
A financial asset that is not recorded at fair value through
profit or loss is assessed at each balance date to determine if there is objective evidence of impairment. A financial asset is impaired if there is objective evidence that
a loss event has occurred after initial recognition of the
asset and that this loss event has had a negative effect
on future cash flows of the asset that can be reliably calculated.
The Group uses variables based on arrears, cash flows
related to charges to customers, recoveries, customer
segments, product types, the amount of loss incurred
and comparisons with recognized practices in the financial market, adjusted according to current economic
and credit conditions that are likely to result in real losses
being greater or lower than those suggested by historical trends.
An impairment loss related to a financial asset valued at
amortized cost is calculated as the difference between
the asset’s book value and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest
rate. Losses are recognized in the income statements
and are reflected in a provision account against accounts
receivable (see chart on impairment of trade and other
accounts receivable and unpaid with impairment, in the
note on Trade and the other accounts receivable item).
Interest on the impaired asset will continue to be recognized through reversal of the effective rate. When a
subsequent event causes a reduction in the loss amount,
this reduction is reversed in the income statements.
3.13 Inventories
Inventories are valued at the acquisition cost or net realizable value as of 31 December 2011, whichever is lower.
Net realizable value represents the estimated sales value
of inventories during the normal course of business, minus all remaining production costs (own manufactured
goods) and costs required in order to execute the sale.
The costing method corresponds to the weighted ave-
rage price. Stock in transit is valued at acquisition cost.
Imports in transit are recorded when they are found under categories that transfer risks and benefits to the Corporation, i.e. “FOB”.
Commercial discounts, other discounts and other similar
items are recognized as a reduction in the sale cost of
products sold or the value of stock. These agreements
are part of a public document “General terms and conditions for provisioning merchandise”, which was designed to establish the terms and conditions that regulate relations between Walmart and its Suppliers.
The Corporation only recognizes the benefits of these
agreements with suppliers when there is evidence of the
agreement, when benefit amounts can be reasonably
estimated and reception is likely.
The Corporation modified the method used for valuation of non-perishable inventories held at points of sale
to the retail cost method as of the 2012 fiscal year. Cost
was determined using the average cost or net realization
value methods, whichever was lower, up until the 2011
fiscal year. The new costing method is determined by
deducing the inventory sale price, a percentage of the
average gross margin associated to each commercial
department. The percentage applied considers the mark
down of stock that has been valued below its original
sale price.
In order to properly record its stock, the company makes
estimates for damage and obsolescence of its inventories. These estimates are based on historical experience
and are reviewed at the annual closure date for the financial statements.
3.14 Trade and other accounts receivable
Trade and other accounts receivable are initially recognized at their fair value (a nominal value that includes implicit interest) and subsequently at their amortized cost
according to the effective interest rate method, minus
any reduction for value impairment.
An estimate is established for impairment losses of trade receivables when there is objective evidence that the
company will not be able to collect all amounts owed
in accordance with the original terms of the accounts
receivable. Some indicators of possible impairment of
accounts receivable are debtors› financial difficulties, the
likelihood of the debtor entering into bankruptcy or financial reorganization and non-compliance or failure to
make payment, as well as experience regarding the behavior and characteristics of the overall portfolio.
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
In order to assess and record impairment, the portfolio is
segmented by type of debtor and credit up to the levels
considered appropriate. Trade receivables presently include only operations that can be classified as consumption and therefore information about these receivables
only refers to this concept.
Impairment estimates are based on a loss approach that
aims to capture objective evidence of the impairment of
operations, which enables the company to predict which
future flows will not be received as agreed. Payment expectations are also considered in terms of the amount
and timing and the valuation of such losses based on the
difference between contractual flows and flows adjusted
for impairment. The latter are updated at the effective
loan interest rate. The amount associated to impairment
estimation is presented net of trade and other accounts
payable and its effect on income is recognized by recording it as part of administrative expenses.
3.15 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash balances, bank
and other investments in fixed income mutual fund
shares in Chilean pesos that mature in less than three
months and present low risk of any change in value. Any
existing overdrafts are classified in the balance sheets as
loans in current liabilities at amortized cost.
3.16 Share capital
Share capital is represented by ordinary shares of a single
class.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of
new shares are presented in net equity as a deduction,
net of capital gain taxes resulting from the issuance of
shares.
According to the Corporation’s bylaws, at least 30% of
annual profits must be distributed as cash dividends, unless otherwise unanimously agreed at the shareholders
meeting by all shares issued.
3.17 Trade and other accounts payable
Trade and other accounts payable are recognized at
amortized cost, which is not different from their nominal
value, since average payment time is reduced.
3.18 Loans and other financial liabilities
The group initially recognizes debt instruments issued
and financial liabilities on the date of their origination. All
other financial liabilities (including liabilities designated
at fair value through profit or loss) are initially recognized
at the transaction date when the group becomes a party
to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
The group writes off a financial liability when its contractual obligations are settled or expire.
Loans, public obligations and financial liabilities of a similar nature are initially recognized at their fair value, net of
costs incurred in the transaction. These are subsequently
valued at amortized cost and any difference between
the funds obtained (net of the costs necessary to obtain
them) and the reimbursement value is recognized in the
income statement over the life of the debt according to
the effective interest rate method.
3.19 Income taxes and deferred income taxes
Income taxes recorded in the income statement by
function for the first year includes current and deferred
income taxes.
Income taxes are directly recognized in the income statement by function except for those related to items that
are directly recognized in equity.
Current income tax is tax expected to be paid for the
year, calculated using rates in effect at the date of the
balance sheet and also includes any adjustment to tax to
be paid for previous years.
Deferred income tax is calculated considering differences between the book value of assets and liabilities reported for financial purposes and the amounts used for
tax purposes.
Deferred taxes are valued at tax rates expected to be
applied when the temporary differences are reversed,
based on laws that have been approved or are about to
be approved as of the balance sheet date. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are presented in net form if there is
an enforceable legal right to adjust current tax liabilities
and assets for current taxes, and these are related to the
income tax applied by the same tax authority to the
same taxpaying entity, or to different taxpaying entities,
but the current tax liabilities and assets are to be settled
in net form, or its tax assets and liabilities will be realized
at the same time.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that there will likely be future taxable profits against which these
assets could be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reduced
101
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
to the extent that the related benefit will not likely be
obtained.
The Corporation does not record deferred taxes for temporary differences arising between investments in subsidiaries and related companies, since the date when
these will revert is monitored and these are not likely to
revert in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and temporary deductible differences
to the extent that future taxable gains will likely exist
against which these can be used. Deferred tax assets are
reviewed at each balance sheet date and are reduced
when it is not likely that the related tax benefits will be
obtained.
3.20 Employee benefits
Employee benefits are recognized when there is a current legal or construction obligation to pay the amount
as the result of a service provided by the employee in the
past and the obligation can be reliably estimated.
3.20.1 Employee vacations
The Corporation recognizes employee vacation expenses to the extent that this right is earned. This is a shortterm obligation that is recorded at nominal value.
3.20.2 Incentives
The Corporation provides an annual incentive plan for
its employees for meeting goals and individual contributions to income.
Incentives, which are eventually delivered, consist of
a certain number or portion of monthly salaries and
are recognized when they are likely to be paid and the
amount can be reliably estimated.
3.21 Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the group has a present
(legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past
event and it is likely that a resource disbursement, including economic benefits, will be required to settle the
obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount owed
can be made. When the group expects part or all of the
provision to be reimbursed, for example under an issuance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually
certain. Expenses related to any provision are presented
in the income statement net of any reimbursement. If
the effect of the value over time of the money is material, provisions are discounted using a rate that reflects,
when appropriate, the specific risks of the liability. When
the discount is used, the increased value of the provision
owing to the passage of time is recognized as a financial
cost.
A provisions for onerous contracts is recognized when
the economic benefits the Group anticipates from the
contract are less than the inevitable costs of complying
with the contract obligations. The provision is recognized at the present value of the lesser of the anticipated
costs of settling the contract and the anticipated net
cost of continuing with the contract. Prior to establishing
a provision, the group recognizes any impairment loss of
the assets associated with the contract. As of 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011, the group has not used
provisions of this kind.
3.22 Revenue from ordinary activities
Ordinary revenue includes the fair value of the considerations received or to be received for the sale of goods
and services in the ordinary course of the Corporation’s
activities. Ordinary revenue is presented net of sales tax,
returns and discounts.
The Corporation recognizes revenue when the amount
of the same can be reliably calculated, when future
economic benefits are likely to be received by the entity and the specific conditions are met for each of
the Corporation’s activities. Accurate valuation of the
amount of revenue is not considered possible until all
contingencies related to the sale of the good or service provision have been settled. Revenue from the sale
of merchandise is recognized in the income statement
when the significant risks and benefits of ownership of
goods are transferred to the buyer. Revenue is not recognized if there is significant uncertainty regarding collection, associated costs, possible return of goods or continued administrative involvement in this revenue.
Income from financial interest and adjustments is accrued as a function of the issuing of consumer loans
based on pending capital payment, and is recognized
using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the discount rate that exactly balances the
cash flows to be received with the net book value of the
asset. Calculation of the effective interest rate, when corresponding to commissions and other paid items such
as transaction costs, is incremental and directly attributable to the transaction. The Corporation ceases to recognize financial income when recovery is considered to be
highly unlikely.
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
The main operations that generate financial interest income are listed as follows:
ʭʭ
Installment loan interest: interest agreed to at the
effective date of the transaction and which is calculated by applying the rate (in basis 365) to the unpaid
loan balance when the installment is invoiced.
Line of credit or revolving interest: interest calculated
for the revolving debt or use the customer makes of
his or her line of credit. This is calculated on a daily
basis or project according to a parameterized revolving rate. This interest is charged daily starting on the
maturity date and up until invoicing (inclusive). On
the invoicing date, interest is projected as of the date
after invoicing and up until the date of maturity.
Interest is projected up until the end of the month
when this credit matures the next month and the second projects in from the first day of the month until
the day before maturity.
ʭʭ
Default interest: interest calculated based on the
customer’s overdue debt. This is calculated on a daily
basis or project according to a parameterized default
rate. This interest is charged daily starting on the maturity date and up until invoicing (inclusive). On the
invoicing date, interest is projected from the day after
invoicing to the date of maturity. When the loan installment matures the next month, interest is projected to the end of the month, and a second projection
is made from the first day of the month until the day
before maturity.
Income from commissions is recognized in the consolidated income statement using different criteria, depending on the nature of these commissions. Those that
correspond to a single act are recorded directly in the
income statement. Those stemming from transactions or
services that occur over time are accrued over the credit
term.
Income from the lease of investment property is recognized in the income statement using the linear method
during the rental period. Other services are recognized
on an accrual basis depending on the conditions established in the contracts and business agreements.
Income from insurance brokerage is recognized in accordance with how the service is rendered, based on the
term agreed with the insurance companies.
Walmart Chile continues to operate a customer loyalty
program known as “Mi Club Lider”. Each time a customer purchases an eligible product or service, whether at
Walmart Chile or at a related business, he or she receives “Lider pesos,” which can be exchanged for products
in the next quarter. According to IFRIC 13, each time a
customer buys a product that generates “Lider pesos,”
the amount received is proportionately assigned to the
products purchased and these “Lider pesos” become
income deferred in liabilities until they are used. The
amount of the deferred income includes the estimate
of the likelihood that these “Lider pesos” will be used.
This is calculated based on historical statistics of unused
points that have expired. The fair value of “Lider pesos”
is equivalent to the same amount of pesos expressed in
the Corporation’s functional currency: the Chilean peso.
“Lider pesos” are used by clients as a means of payment
for their purchases at the Corporation’s stores.
The Corporation reports deferred income from different
transactions for which it receives cash when the aforementioned conditions for reporting income have not
been met, such as cash received upon issuing rental
contracts.
3.23 Cost of sales
Cost of sales includes the cost of purchasing products
sold and other costs incurred in order to make stock
available at locations and in conditions required for sale.
These costs mainly include net purchasing costs for discounts obtained, non-recoverable warehousing costs
and taxes, insurance and product transport to distribution centers.
Cost of sales includes losses due to impairment of the
loan portfolio, net of recovery and financial costs related
to the financial segment.
As of the 2012 fiscal year, the retail cost method is applied
to the non-perishable category available for sale at stores. This is calculated by deducing the inventory sale price, a percentage of the gross margin associated to each
commercial department.
3.24 Leases
3.24.1 The Group as lessee
Financial leases, which transfer substantially all risks and
benefits incidental to the property of a leased item to the
Group, are capitalized at the start of the rental period at
the fair value of the property leased or if lower, at the current value of minimum lease payments. Lease payments
are distributed between financing charges and the reduction of the lease obligation to obtain a constant interest rate on the unpaid liability balance. Financial costs
are charged in the income statement by function.
Leases in which the lessor conserves a significant part of
103
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
the risks and benefits of asset ownership are classified as
operative leases. Payments for operative leases are charged in the income statement by function on a linear basis over the lease period for the fixed party. Variable profit
is recognized as expenses for the fiscal year in which the
obligation was created, as are profit increases indexed to
consumption variation.
3.24.2 The Group as leaser
When assets are leased under a financial rental agreement, the current value of lease payments is recognized
as an account receivable. The difference between the
gross amount to be received and the current value of
that amount is recognized as financial return on the capital.
Income from financial leases is recognized in the lease
period using the net investment method, which reflects
a constant periodic rate of return.
Assets leased to third parties under operative lease contracts are included in the property, plant and equipment
item or investment property item, whichever applies.
Income derived from operative leases is recognized in
linear form over the rental period.
3.25 Distribution of dividends
According to Article 79 of Law 18,046, public companies
must distribute at least 30% of profits to their shareholders as dividends. Dividends are recognized when the
payment obligation is established.
Dividends to be paid to Walmart Chile S.A. shareholders
are recognized as a liability in the financial statements for
the period in which they are declared and approved by
the Corporation’s shareholders or when the corresponding obligation is undertaken to current legal provisions
or distribution agreements established by the shareholders.
This liability is recorded in the other current non-financial
liabilities line item and movement for the year is recorded in the consolidated statement of changes in net
equity, on the dividends line.
3.26 Earnings per share
Earnings per basic and diluted share are calculated by
dividing profit attributable to the Corporation’s common
shareholders between the weighted average number of
common shares in circulation during the year, excluding,
if any, common shares purchased by the Corporation
and held as treasury shares.
3.27 Financial information by operating segment
An operating segment is a component of the group that
participates in business activities in which it may obtain
income or incur expenses, including income and expenses related to transactions with other components of the
Group.
Information by segment is presented consistently with
internal reports provided to those responsible for making relevant operating decisions. These executives are
responsible for assigning resources and evaluating the
performance of operating segments, which have been
identified as retail, real estate and financial services, for
those who make strategic decisions, as indicated in
IFRS 8 “Operating segments”. Information related to the
company’s operating segments is disclosed in the note
on information by segment.
3.28 Other non-financial assets
Advance lease payments are recorded, related to the
different long-term lease operations for stores. Advance
lease payments are recorded at their historical cost and
are amortized over the duration of the respective contracts.
3.29 Financial income and financial costs
Financial income is comprised of interest income from
invested funds (including available-for-sale financial assets), dividend income, gains from the sale of availablefor-sale financial assets, changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and gains
from hedging instruments that are recorded in income.
Interest income is recognized in the income statement at
amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.
Dividend income is recognized in the income statement
at the date when the Group’s right to receive payments
is established.
Financial costs are composed of interest expenses for
loans or financing, changes in fair value of financial assets to fair value through profit or loss and impairment
loses recognized in financial assets. Loan costs that are
not directly attributable to the acquisition, construction
or production of a qualified asset are recognized in income using the effective interest rate method.
3.30 Environment
Disbursements related to environmental protection are
recorded against income as they are made.
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
3.31 Contingent assets and liabilities
Contingent assets are possible assets arising from past
events whose existence will be only be confirmed if one
or more uncertain events take place in the future and
if these events are not entirely under the Corporation’s
control.
Contingent liabilities are possible obligations arising
from past events whose existence will only be confirmed
if one or more uncertain events occur and if these events
are not entirely under the Corporation’s control.
As of 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011, the
Corporation does not have any recorded contingent assets or liabilities.
4. Changes in accounting policy
As of the 2012 fiscal year, the Corporation changed the
method used for the valuation of non-perishable inventories stocked at points of sale to the retail cost method.
Up until the 2011 fiscal year cost was determined using
the average cost method. The new costing method
is determined by deducing inventory sale price, a percentage of the average gross margin associated to each
commercial department. The percentage applied considers mark down of stock that has been valued below its
original sale price.
This new costing method, which is accepted by IFRS, dos
not substantially modify cost and this new valuation is
reliable and relevant for the purpose of inventory management.
This accounting change has not been retroactively
applied. It was decided that it would be impracticable
to determine relative amounts for the former periods
presented, basically because this was based on margin
estimates at the start of the application, under market
conditions at that time, which are difficult to redetermine. Subsequently and given the impracticability of

5. Risk management policy
5.1 Financial risk factors
The Corporation’s activities are exposed to several types
of financial risk:
ʭʭ
Market risk
ʭʭ
Liquidity risk
ʭʭ
Credit risk
The Corporation’s global risk management program
is centered on the uncertainty of financial markets
and aims to minimize potential adverse effects on the
Corporation’s financial returns. The company uses derivatives to hedge against certain aforementioned risks.
a) Market Risk
Due to the nature of its operations, the Corporation is
exposed to the following types of market risk:
(i) Currency exchange rate risk
Foreign currency exchange rate risk is the risk that market prices will vary as a result of fluctuation in foreign
currency exchange rates, thereby affecting the Group’s
income or the value of the financial instruments it holds.
Exchange rate risk is managed in an effort to control exposure in the face of market changes, within reasonable
parameters, while simultaneously optimizing returns.
The Chilean peso is the group’s functional currency. It is
used for setting prices for services, composing its balance sheet and determining the effects of operations on
income.
As of 31 December 2012, the company does not have
accounts receivable in foreign currency.
The Corporation’s financial debt is denominated as follows: 62% in unidades de fomento, 29% in Chilean pesos
and 9% in dollars. As of 31 December 2012, the company
has US$ 89.6 million in foreign currency-denominated
financial debt.
As of 31 December 2012, the average annual exchange rate for the U.S. dollar came to CLP 479.96, down 8%
compared to the 31 December 2011 closing rate of CLP
519.20.
Given the aforementioned exchange rates, a sensitivity
analysis was conducted to determine the effect of exchange rate fluctuation on the Corporation’s income.
The analysis considered the portion not covered by the
105

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
natural hedge between assets and liabilities held in foreign currency and accounted for variations of ±10% in the average
value of the US dollar as of 31 December 2012.
As of 31 December 2012, the Corporation held financial assets in foreign currency amounting to US$ 40.4 million.

(ii) Interest rate risk
The Corporation’s interest rate risk stems from its
third-party debt, which includes letters of credit and
an overdraft line. The Corporation’s variable income
interest rate debt exposes it to cash flow interest rate
risk, while its fixed interest rate exposes the Corporation to fair value interest rate risk.
The Corporation’s exposure to risks associated with
market interest rate fluctuations is consequently low,
given that a significant percentage of its debt is struc-
tured at a fixed rate, either directly or through derivative contracts.
The results of a sensitivity analysis on variable rate
debt net of hedging indicate that a 5% increase in
the interest rate would have meant increased losses
before taxes amounting to CLP th 696,450 if all other
variables remained constant.
The Corporation has a cross currency swap, which is
used to transform debt from Chilean pesos to UF and
from variable rate to fixed rate.
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
(iii) Inflation risk
As of 31 December 2012, the company held 62% of its
financial debt in UF (61% in 2011), resulting in fluctuations in the debt’s Chilean peso-denominated value.
In order to quantify the effect on the Corporation’s
pre-tax income, a sensitivity analysis was performed
assuming inflation amounting to 5% for next year,
maintaining all other variables constant.
Inflation risk is the risk that changes in market prices,
resulting from a country’s domestic inflation, affect
the group’s revenue or the value of the financial
instruments it holds. Inflation risk is managed in an
effort to control exposure in the face of inflation-related market changes, within reasonable parameters,
while simultaneously optimizing returns.
If the UF had increased by 5%, the effect on pretax income would be losses amounting to CLP th
20,741,407.
b) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is defined as the Corporation’s probability of monetary loss through difficulty complying with short-term
obligations and/or difficulty obtaining financing in order to continue normal operations. A time lapse between cash disbursements and receipts translates into the company’s inability to comply with the terms and conditions of contractual
commitments to creditors and an inability to execute business plans.
Prudent liquidity risk management implies holding sufficient cash; ensuring adequate available financing through committed loan facilities and the ability to liquidate market positions.
Management monitors the Corporation’s cash position daily and continuously makes liquidity projections in order to pay,
pre-pay, refinance and/or take out new loans in accordance with the Corporation’s ability to generate cash flow.
The Corporation’s management presented negative working capital as of 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011. The
Corporation consequently has duly approved and renewable short-term lines of credit amounting to CLP 268.9 billion
(CLP $218.0 billion in 2011), which should reasonably reduce liquidity risk. The management is currently evaluating financial debt restructuring.

c) Credit risk
Definition of credit risk
Credit risk is the Group’s risk of financial loss if a customer
or counterpart in a financial instrument does not fulfill
contractual obligations. This default or non-recoverability primarily stems from loans and advances to customers
through credit card operations.
Business characteristics
The activities and business the institution engages in
are limited to those approved by the Board of Directors
and the Walmart Chile Servicios Financieros Ltda. Risk
Committee. According to the guidelines of Walmart Chile Servicios Financieros S.A., a Walmart Chile subsidiary,
the main objective of the financial business is to create
and develop a retail consumer bank, targeting all income segments. In its initial borrowing stage, the bank is
tied to Walmart Chile’s commercial business. Other businesses are concurrently developed, adding value to the
market in hopes that these will be valued by customers
and support a stable growth strategy that will produce
returns expected by the shareholders. The Corporation’s
credit portfolio is quite fragmented, without individual
debtors owing large amounts and this substantially mitigates credit risk.
Walmart Chile Servicios Financieros Ltda. offers value to
customers from its different supermarket formats, providing a payment and financing method by means of its
Presto card that encourages customer loyalty and provides additional financial options for purchases.
The Presto card value offer is complemented by the
additional option of using the card as a payment and/
89,019,499 1,346,572,124
or financing method at associated businesses, which
include service stations, pharmacies and retail establishments.
In addition, Walmart Chile Servicios Financieros Ltda.
complements its range of products with a series of financial products and services that include general and life
insurance, travel and payment of services, among other,
which support the one-stop shopping concept.
Operating a widely available credit requires loan and
collection processes to be highly standardized and automated from the very beginning of credit operations.
Walmart Chile has placed paramount importance on
guidelines established by the Risk Committee, separation of functions, credit policies constantly tested for
loss rates, adaptation to economic cycles and the use of
platforms and scoring models throughout each phase of
the credit process, all of which take into account the different segments in which the business operates.
Credit risk management
The Risk Committee is Walmart Chile Servicios Financieros Ltda.’s highest authority in matters of credit risk management. The Committee has delegated execution of
credit risk management policy to the Risk and Collection
Division, which reports directly to General Management.
Risk policies are ratified by the Corporation’s Board of Directors.
The Risk and Collection Division is absolutely independent of Walmart Chile’s commercial areas: financing and
retail. Execution of the credit model is decentralized.
The operations and general audit areas are responsible
for balancing interests in the credit approval processes
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
conducted at Presto branches. However, general credit policy decisions are made centrally by the Risk and
Collection Division and executed via the general credit
platform.
Stages in the credit risk management process
The loan origination and collection process
Obtaining, certifying and validating customer information according to evaluation guidelines, and consequently approving sale of the products, is of the utmost
importance during the loan origination and collection
process. No large-scale risk approval system can be successful if customer information is not properly entered
into the evaluation and control systems, or if customer
information entered is not accurate and complete.
The Presto evaluation model is based on strict compliance with credit policy, a scoring system and minimum
approval score, which takes into account the maximum
acceptable loss rate for the business. The cut-off score is
established by the Risk Committee.
The process is based on use of an automated evaluation
system, which contains the scheduling of authorized
credit policies. The system accepts or rejects applicants
and establishes a credit limit and corresponding lines of
credit.
The face-to-face evaluation process begins when an
applicant provides his or her information. The sales executive then analyzes the information, verifies that the
information is accurate and then enters this information
into the credit evaluation system.
All information provided by the applicant and entered
into the system is subject to audit and verification of
compliance with all of the policies, procedures, manuals,
work instructions, informational bulletins and memos related to opening accounts. The branch is responsible for
ensuring correct entry of information and compliance
with the Corporation’s standards.
Determining an applicant’s credit limit is as crucial as
the rest of the variables to be considered in the credit
evaluation process. Since it is so important, the company
has established a policy for calculating credit limits that
takes into consideration acceptable maximum limits, according to the commitment levels that can be established for each customer. The process begins by establishing the amount of income to be considered as a basis.
Monthly payment capacity is then estimated and the
amount of credit to be extended is determined.
Credit limits are established considering two types of
analysis: maximum financial burden and maximum times monthly income. The former represents monthly financial burden while the latter considers the applicant’s
total borrowing or leverage. Each analysis is conducted
as a function of the customer’s income and risk level at
the time of evaluation.
Together, the concepts of maximum financial burden
and maximum times monthly income produce an
amount-term ratio that is instrumental in the credit approval process. The Corporation manages account origination, account maintenance, credit limit upgrades,
blocks, product upgrades, etc., using technological platforms provided by suppliers such as Experian (UK) and
Fair Isaac (USA).
Finally, the Corporation has recently created a collection
subsidiary, Servicios y Cobranzas Ltda. (Seyco), which
manages all stages of the collection cycle, including
early default, late default and write-off recovery. Seyco
outsources some collection functions at certain stages of
the cycle. This is done in line with ongoing maintenance
and efforts to meet benchmarks, in order to maximize all
recovery and efficiency indicators for all processes.
Credit risk analysis
Given the nature of the Corporation’s loans, risk assessment in order to determine losses incurred for the
portfolio is conducted using group evaluation models.
The first criterion for portfolio segmentation is adequate
identification of the renegotiated portfolio. Additional
segmentation criteria are also used to identify and directly monitor specific customer groups within normal
and renegotiated portfolios, according to profiles, risk
levels and characteristics of operations.
Variables used to develop models and calculate provisions include: (a) attributes and characteristics of different customer groups; (b) internal behavior variables,
especially, credit operation default and debtor payment
behavior; (c) customers’ external behavior variables; (d)
renegotiation or payment arrangements with debtors.
Credit risk is managed by groups of customers. The objective is to continuously evaluate the entire loan portfolio, so as to make the necessary provisions in a timely
manner and ensure that provisions are sufficient for covering losses in the event that loans are not recovered.

tional card holders, and charged to the account
holder’s line of credit when the line of credit has sufficient available funds and the account has not been
blocked for any reason, for example, due to default.
Given the nature of the portfolio, a group evaluation model is applied. This is because:
ʭʭ
Credit is granted to individuals.
ʭʭ
There is a high volume of credit operations.
ʭʭ
Credit limits authorized for each customer are low.
Presto has determined that an account owner’s initial line of credit, against which purchases are charged, shall be determined based on the customer’s
risk profile and income. This credit limit is reported in
the customer’s monthly account statement and may
change depending on his or her internal and external
payment behavior, as long as this remains within the
credit limits reported to the customer when the credit card was approved.
The entire portfolio can be modeled around homogenous customer characteristics, which allows the company to identify segments with varying probabilities of
loss.
Risk measurement includes indicators such as: 30 days
overdue, 60 days overdue, 90 days overdue, annual write-off rate, payments and percentage of portfolio that is
renegotiated. Methodologies used include: backtesting,
vintage, provision coverage and monitoring the minimum cut-off scores for customer approval.
For assessment and recognition of impairment, the portfolio is segmented by type of debtor and loan until appropriate levels are reached.
Presto credit card users may make purchases using
their authorized line of credit at any of Presto’s associated businesses, which include entities related and
unrelated to Walmart Chile Servicios Financieros.
The range of terms for credit card purchases is 1 to 36
months and the average is 2.5 months.
ʭʭ
The methodology applied includes risk profiles, so that
individual provisions reflect the reference group’s risk.
Therefore, provisions are calculated monthly and each
group profile is used to determine the change in customers therein.
Presto has determined that cash advances are cash
withdrawals against the line of credit, available for
a percentage of the line of credit authorized for the
account owner. The percentage available for cash
advances is determined according to the customer
profile.
Losses are measured in the following portfolio accounts:
provisions, write-offs and recoveries. The loss ratio is determined as the quotient between the aforementioned
accounts and the amount loaned or sold in each instance.
Cash advances can be withdrawn from Presto-affiliated ATMs and at Lider, Lider Express and Ekono supermarkets.
Terms for cash advances range from 1 to 24 months
and the average is 11 months.
The model considers the following information:
ʭʭ
Normal portfolio: cash-price installments, credit installments, revolving debt and cash advances.
ʭʭ
Renegotiated portfolio: the number of renegotiations
and historical record of the original product.
ʭʭ
Presto determines minimum payment in each billing
period as a function of the operations and transactions realized by the cardholder(s). This amount may
include all or a percentage of the transactions plus
the sum of amounts owed from prior transactions.

Purchases

Minimum payment
Presto has determined that minimum payment is the

The credit card statement informs the cardholder of
the minimum payment due, which must be paid on
or before the due date stated therein.

Current credit policies for the subsidiary Walmart Chile
Servicios Financieros Ltda., hereinafter “Presto”, as well as
average terms and ranges of terms for renegotiations, refinancing, provisions and write-offs are listed as follows:

merchant discount) as a percentage of each transaction performed using a Presto card at the associated
business.
The minimum term between refinancing is established
based on the customer’s risk profile. Consecutive refinancing is not permitted.
The range of terms and average terms for credit purchases from associated businesses are noted in the
preceding Purchases section.
Provisions
Given the nature of Presto loans, risk assessment to
determine the provision for bad debt is conducted via
group evaluation models. Consequently, Presto’s portfolio is separated into two segments: normal portfolio and
renegotiated portfolio.
“Súper avance”
According to the provisions of Walmart Chile Servicios Financieros Ltda., Presto has determined that
customers with better risk profiles may be granted
access to installment loans associated to the credit
card. The corresponding cash amounts can be withdrawn at Presto-affiliated ATMs and at Lider, Lider Express and Ekono supermarkets.
Access to Súper Avance is subject to Presto card
account holder credit evaluation and is established
according to the customer’s profile. Súper Avance is
available for a pre-determined term.
The range of terms for Súper Avances is 12 to 60
months and the average is 39 months.
The provision associated with each account is based
on the time in arrears, the portfolio segment and other
variables. Presto has separate provision matrices for the
normal and renegotiated portfolio segments.
Write-offs
Presto has determined that debt balances for debtors
with payment past-due for over 180 days are written off.
Collection channels established by Presto are responsible for collecting on the written-off portfolio. Debtors
may negotiate payment agreements or pay the entire
written-off debt. All written-off accounts are recorded
in memorandum accounts. Income is recognized only
when payments are received.
Renegotiation
Presto has determined that customers who are between
30 and 180 days in arrears may renegotiate their total
debt.
Information about types of portfolios and subcategories
The Presto portfolio is classified into renegotiated and
non-renegotiated categories.
The renegotiation policy requires an initial deposit, the
amount of which depends on the amount owed and the
number of days in arrears. The average initial deposit for
the 2012 period came to 8.8%.
The renegotiated portfolio includes accounts with at
least one renegotiation agreement, according to the
aforementioned renegotiation policy.
To date, the maximum number of renegotiations per
customer is three, with no more than two renegotiations
within the last mobile 12-month period.
The account is disabled while the renegotiated debt is
being repaid.
Depending on the customer’s reputation, risk assessment and observance of his or her renegotiated
payment commitment, this Division may authorized account enablement.
The range of terms is between 6 and 60 months; the average is 30 months.
Refinancing
Presto has determined that customers with payment
that has been past-due for no more than 29 days can
refinance their debt over a term of 3 to 48 months. The
average is 27 months.
Guarantees
The credit evaluation model does not require guarantees
to hedge credit risk.
5.2 Equity risk management
Walmart Chile S.A.’s equity management objectives are:
ʭʭ
To safeguard the Corporation’s ability to continue
operating.
ʭʭ
To earn returns for shareholders.
ʭʭ

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
company’s future development. The Board of Directors monitors return on equity, which is defined by the Group as net
income divided by total shareholder equity, excluding non-redeemable preferred stock and minority interests. The Board
also monitors dividends paid to ordinary shareholders.
In order to maintain or adjust equity structure, the Corporation can adjust the amount of dividends payable to shareholders, reimburse shareholders equity, issue new shares, sell assets to reduce debt or postpone new investments.
To date, the company must comply with certain covenants, which are discussed in the note on Contingency, Lawsuits
and Other Restrictions
The Corporation monitors equity using debt and equity ratios. These indicators are calculated based on the consolidated
financial statements, presented according to the stipulated format and deadlines.

6. Management estimations, judgments and
critical criteria
The preparation of financial statements in accordance
with IFRS requires management to use good judgment,
estimations and assumptions that affect the application
of accounting policies and the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities, income and expenses. These estimations and the assumptions associated with them are
based on historical experience and several other factors
that are considered reasonable under the circumstances.
Actual results may differ from said estimations.
Estimations and the related assumptions are revised on
an ongoing basis. Revisions of accounting estimates are
recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised,
if the revision affects only that period or the revision period and future periods.
The book values of the following estimations are disclosed in the corresponding notes in the financial statements.
The following estimations have been made based on
the best information available when the current financial statements were issued, but events may occur in the
future and force these to be changed (up or down) over
the coming periods. This would be done prospectively,
recognizing the effects of changing estimations in the
corresponding consolidated financial statements.
6.1 Estimation of irrecoverable debt in the Presto
portfolio
The aim of the impairment policy is to permanently evaluate the entire loan portfolio in order to constitute in
a timely manner the necessary and sufficient provisions
to cover the portfolio risk, in accordance with the provisions of IAS 39.
Calculation is based on a focus on incurred losses that
seeks to capture objective evidence of operational impairment, allowing us to prevent future flows from not
being received in accordance with the agreement and
considering expectations of payment, in amount as well
as timing, and the valuation of said losses based on the
difference between the contractual flows and those adjusted for impairment, the latter updated at the effective
placement interest rate.
Given the nature of Presto loans, losses incurred are estimated using group evaluation methods. Consequently,
Presto’s portfolio is separated into different segments
and determined based on factors depending on default
category, portfolio segment and other variables. Flows
are discounted according to the actual portfolio rate.
Presto has separate provision matrices for renegotiated
and non-renegotiated portfolio segments.
6.2 Useful life and residual value of property, plant
and equipment, investment property and intangibles
6.2.1 Property, plant and equipment
The valuation of investments for construction and infrastructure projects, installations, machinery and equi-
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
pment and other assets includes making estimations to
determine the residual value and useful life in order to
calculate the depreciation of each asset. These estimations take into consideration technology and operations
factors and alternative uses of the assets. Walmart Chile
S.A. revises the estimated useful life and residual value
of these fixed assets at the end of each annual period or
when an event occurs that indicates that said useful life
or residual value is different. Management regularly reviews these assumptions and prospectively adjusts them
in the event that any change is identified.
Asset dismantling costs, which constitute an obligation
for the Corporation, are determined by estimating the
value of removing aggregate goods in order to leave
goods in their original condition.
6.2.2 Intangible assets
The Corporation revises the book values of its tangible
and intangible assets in order to determine if there is
any indication that these assets may be impaired. For the
purpose of impairment evaluation, assets that do not independently generate cash are grouped together into
an appropriate cash generating unit (CGU). The recoverable amount for these assets or CGUs is measured as the
lesser value between their fair value (future discounted
cash flow method) and their book values.
There are intangible assets with undetermined useful lives that do not evidence any indication of impairment.
6.3 Recoverability of deferred taxes
The Walmart Chile Group accounts for deferred tax assets in consideration of the possibility of their recovery,
based on the existence of deferred tax liabilities with similar reversion periods and on the possibility of generating sufficient taxable earnings in the future. The latter is
based on internal management projections made using
the latest information available. Real income and flows of
paid or received taxes may differ from estimations made
by the Corporation as a result of future tax changes not
foreseen in the estimates.
6.4 Financial leases
In the process of applying accounting policies, management has had to make judgments that could have a
significant effect on the amounts entered into the consolidated financial statements, in relation to determining
whether operative or financial leases exist depending on
the transfer of risks and benefits of the leased assets.
Lease contracts are classified as financial when the contract transfers substantially all the risks and benefits inhe-
rent to ownership of the asset in accordance with the IAS
17 “Leases” to the Corporation.
6.5 Provisions for litigation and legal contingencies
The Walmart Chile group maintains legal proceedings
for diverse reasons and it is not possible to precisely determine the economic effects these could have on the
financial statements. For cases in which the Corporation’s
management and legal advisors consider that favorable
results will be obtained or that the results are uncertain
and the cases are ongoing, no provisions have been
created. For cases in which the Corporation’s management or legal advisors consider that the outcome may
be unfavorable, provisions have been created for expenses depending on estimations of the probable amounts
to be paid.
6.6 Building customer loyalty
Walmart Chile continues to operate a customer loyalty
program known as “Mi Club Lider”. Each time a customer purchases an eligible product or service, whether at
Walmart Chile or at a related business, he or she receives “Lider pesos,” which can be exchanged for products
in the next quarter. According to IFRIC 13, each time a
customer buys a product that generates “Lider pesos,”
the amount received is proportionately assigned to the
products purchased and these “Lider pesos” become
income deferred in liabilities until they are used. The
amount of the deferred income includes the estimate
of the likelihood that these “Lider pesos” will be used.
This is calculated based on historical statistics of unused
points that have expired. The fair value of “Lider pesos”
is equivalent to the same amount of pesos expressed in
the Corporation’s functional currency: the Chilean peso.
“Lider pesos” are used by clients as a means of payment
for their purchases at the Corporation’s stores.
6.7 Fair value of derivative instruments
The fair value of derivative contracts is determined using
valuation techniques that maximize the use of available
market information. Valuation techniques generally used
by the Corporation are: market quotations for similar instruments and/or estimation of the present value of future cash flows using future market price curves at the
close of the fiscal year.
6.8 Fair value of assets and liabilities
In certain cases IFRS require assets and liabilities to be
registered at fair value. Fair value is the amount at which
an asset can be bought or sold or the amount at which
a liability can be incurred or liquidated in a current transaction between parties duly informed of the conditions
Walmart Chile S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
Corresponding to the fiscal years ending 31 december 2012 and 2011
of mutual independence, as opposed to a forced liquidation. The measurement bases of assets and liabilities
is their fair value in accordance with current prices in the
asset market. If these are not available, the Corporation
estimates said values based on the best information
available, including the use of models and other valuation techniques.
7. Information by segment
An operating segment is a component of an entity that
participates in business activities from which it can receive revenue and incur expenses (including income and
expenses related to transactions with other parts of the
same entity), whose operational income is revised regularly by the chief executive who makes decisions for the
entity with respect to resources assigned to the segment
and evaluation of its performance, and for which financial information is available.
Walmart Chile operations are limited to Chile and none
of its customers represents accounts for more than 10%
of the Corporation’s revenue.
7.1 The retail division
Walmart Chile Comercial S.A. supervises all of the
Corporation’s retail activities, including the operations of
supermarkets under the Lider, Ekono and Super Bodega
Acuenta brands. We currently operate two formats under
the Lider brand, Hiper Líder and Líder Express supermarkets. We have locations from Arica to Punta Arenas, and

consumers through the Presto card and offers several
products and services that add value to our business.

country. Presto is accepted nationwide from Arica to
Punta Arenas at service points and ATMs.
The financial division also provides a wide range of complementary services, such as insurance and assistance,
mutual funds, cash loans and travel, among other.
7.3 The real estate division

real estate property. In close relation with this business,
the real estate division develops and administers supermarket, hypermarket and shopping center locations to
ensure that Walmart Chile will have the best locations

segments.

9.2 Fair value estimation
As of 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011, the
Corporation held financial instruments recorded at fair
value.
Financial instrument categories include:
ʭʭ
(i) Term deposit investment (cash equivalent and
other financial assets),
ʭʭ
(ii) Interest rate swap contracts
ʭʭ
(iii) Currency swap contracts
The Corporation has classified the measurement of fair
value using a hierarchy that reflects the level of information used for valuation. This hierarchy consists of 3 levels:
(I) fair value based on quotation in active markets for a
similar class of assets or liabilities, (II) fair value based on
valuation techniques that use information based on the
market price or market price derivatives of similar financial instruments, (III) fair value based on valuation model
that do not use market information.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active
markets, such as investments acquired for negotiation, is
based on market quotations at the close of the financial
year using the current purchase price. The fair value of
financial assets not traded in active markets (derivative
contracts) is determined using valuation techniques that
maximize the use of available market information. The
valuation techniques generally used by the Corporation
are: market quotations for similar instruments and/or estimation of the present value of future cash flow using
the future market price curves at the close of the fiscal
year.
The following table shows the classification of financial instruments at fair value as of 31 December 2012 and 31 December2011, according to the level of information used for valuation:

of the current year is lower than that of December 2011,
mainly due to more regular collection management, focused on early default segments and speeding up negotiation of longer default periods.

The write-off index (write-off/portfolio balance) is calculated considering total customer write-offs for the period
divided by the total debt balance for the portfolio.
The accumulated write-off index as of 31 December
2012 was up compared to December 2011, which is due
to a 12.5% decline in the total portfolio amount in 2012
compared to a write-off reduction amounting to 7% during the same period.
Credit quality of financial assets
The greatest exposure to credit risk at the date information was presented is the fair value of each category of
the aforementioned accounts receivable.

The book value of trade and customer receivables in
arrears, both unimpaired and impaired, represent a
reasonable approximation of their fair value, since they
include explicit interest for payment in arrears and consider an impairment provision where objective evidence
exists that the Corporation will not be able to recover the
amount owed.
Maximum exposure to credit risk at the report date is the
book value of each class of account receivable mentioned.
The trade receivables portfolio consists of small amounts
granted without guarantees to many Walmart Chile customers to finance their credit purchases in the Company’s
supermarkets. The credit quality of this portfolio and the
payment behavior of these debtors is suitable, and provisions have already been made for the estimated loss due
to those debtors whose payment behavior deteriorated.
Guarantees
The Presto credit portfolio is classified as consumer credit and mainly consists of revolving loans and advances
which by nature do not require guarantees to hedge credit risk in the event of impairment.
Net trade and other accounts receivable
Trade receivables correspond to accounts receivable
from customers for loans and the provision of real estate
leasing services.
Other accounts receivable as of 31 December 2012
amounting to CLP th 30,776,850 include employee
loans, taxes to be recovered and other minor amounts.
The balance as of 31 December 2011 amounting to CLP
th 19,973,144 mainly includes taxes recoverable and
other minor amounts.

19.3 Unrecognized deferred taxes
No unrecognized deferred tax items were presented as
of 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011.
19.4 Changes made to first category tax rates
Chile’s National Congress passed Law 20,455 31 July
2010. The law incorporated temporary modifications to
the first category tax rate.
This new legislation increased first category tax rates
applied to income obtained during 2011 and 2012 to
rates of 20% and 18,5% respectively. This rate will then
return to 17% for 2013 and on.
Law 20,630 that “Improves Tax Legislation and Finances
the Educational Reform” was published in the Official Gazette 27 September 2012. Among other standards, the
law raises first-category tax from 18.5% to 20% and this
comes into force starting in the 2013 tax year.
Consequently, all income accrued between January and
December of the 2012 business year will be taxed at the
new rate of 20%.
19.5 Compensation of items
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are compensated when a legally executable right exists to compensate current tax assets
with current tax liabilities and when deferred tax assets and liabilities are related to the income tax applied by the same
tax authority to the same tax-paying entity or to different tax-paying entities for which there is an intention to liquidate
balances on net bases. The amounts compensated are listed as follows:

Effective rates for bank loans:
Fixed rate loans: the effective rate method was used
for this type of loan. It corresponds to the rate that
equalizes effective payment flows with net amount
in the books, discounting the cost of initiating the
operation.
future interest rates, the Corporation uses the same
nominal rate for this type of loan and costs associated
with the loan are amortized together with the loan.
ʭʭ
ʭʭ
ʭʭ
Variable rate loans: Due to the difficulty of estimating
Letters of credit, bank guarantee bonds and overdrafts: This type of instrument has no origination costs
and therefore the effective rate is no different from
the nominal rate.

d) Confirming Operations
Confirming operations with unpaid balances corresponding to Walmart Chile at the end of the fiscal year are
associated to two suppliers, CLOROX CHILE and GOODYEAR. The supplier JORGE RABIEY CIA completed his
last confirming transaction in April 2012.
The Corporation’s criterion with regard to confirming is to
accept up to 50% of all invoices with pending payment
in the supplier’s account in order to eliminate eventual
financial risk associated to reduction of this account due
to negotiations with the sales area and/or returns.
Given the immaterial nature of these operations, they are
registered in the trade and other accounts payable item
and when making payment upon maturity of the debt
associated to the supplier, the beneficiary is changed the
corresponding financial or bank institution.

34,690,772 (CLP th 35,457,288 as of 31 December 2011),
which is determined based on the 30% indicated in Corporations Law N°18,046.
25.4 Accumulated income (loss)
As part of the financial statements consolidation process,
technical reappraisal (allowed by technical bulletin N°
54 “Reappraisal of Fixed Assets”) affecting the property,
plant and equipment and accumulated equity income
(loss) items was eliminated 31 December 2010. However,
since the Corporation started exhaustive IFRS auxiliary
formulation, asset by asset, for the property, plant and
equipment item in 2011, it subsequently detected that
the aforementioned elimination of technical reappraisal
had already been absorbed during the implementation
process. This was done as part of the one-time reappraisal permitted by IFRS 1 “First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards” and thus the aforementioned items were presented undervalued by CLP th
2,311,407. Consequently, these balances have been reexpressed in these financial statements. This adjustment
did not change the results for the fiscal year and therefore income per share was not affected.
25.5 Other reserves
25.5.1 Currency conversion reserve
This item reflects earnings accumulated due to fluctuations in exchange rates by converting financial statements of subsidiaries whose operational currency is
different from that of the Group (Chilean pesos).
25.5.2 Other reserves
These correspond to the reversal of share capital revaluation for the 2009 fiscal year in accordance with Securities and
Insurance Supervisor Newsletter N° 456 dated 20 June 2008 and incorporated in capital issued in accordance with the
provisions of Law 18,046, Article 10, second paragraph.

Although the Corporation’s investments have essentially focused on supporting its business practices, these
have internalized best environmental practices related
to energy efficiency, waste recycling, transport, availability of green spaces and the adoption of environmentally
friendly technologies.
33. Subsequent events
As of 01 January 2013, Walmart Chile Comercial Ltda.,
previously known as Inversiones Presto Tres Ltda. and as

capital owed by Walmart Chile to Inversiones Australes

34. Business mergers
Inversiones Walmart Chile Limitada, a subsidiary of Walmart Chile S.A., purchased the remaining 50% interest
in the related companies Alimentos y Servicios S.A. and
Inversiones Solpacific S.A. 15 July 2011, thereby taking
100% control of the aformentioned companies, since
the other 50% was already owned by other related companies.
Description of the acquisition process
La Corporation has based its purchasing process for the
companies Alimentos y Servicios S.A. and Inversiones
Solpacific S.A. on its continual search for cost efficiency
through the integration of synergies to obtain higher
production levels in the companies it acquires, and passing on the lower purchase prices for inputs that Walmart Chile obtains thanks to commercial agreements it
maintains with its suppliers that result from large volume purchases. This strategy allows the company to offer
customers the best variety of high-quality products at
the lowest prices. In accordance with the above, in the
negotiating process the company agreed to pay a purchase price higher than the fair value of the assets of the
companies acquired based on future flows that would
be obtained by the aforementioned synergies, thus generating goodwill that was recorded by the purchasing
company.
a) Alimentos y Servicios S.A.
Alimentos y Servicios S.A. was established by public
deed 26 June 1995. Its purpose is to a) make, sell and
distribute all kinds of foods and prepared foods and all
food products in general, in house or externally; b) purchase, sell, import, export, distribute and sell, directly or
indirectly, all kinds of movable goods; and c) in general,
directly or indirectly perform all acts and celebrate contracts related to this purpose.
The purchase price for 50% of the shares of Alimentos y
Servicios S.A. was CLP th 11,822,570. Due to the business
merger, goodwill amounting to CLP th 21,635,197 has
been recorded in the financial statements of Walmart
Chile S.A. and its subsidiaries.
Goodwill value had dropped by CLP th 425,417 as of 31
December 2012. This variation is mainly due to returns
stemming from the difference between the purchase
price and variation in the acquisition adjustment value.

Inversiones Walmart Chile Ltda., hereinafter the “Corporation”, incorporated in Chile 03 November 2006 and domiciled in the city of Santiago, Chile. Its corporate purpose
is to invest in movable and immovable assets, tangibles
and intangibles, such as shares, share pledges, bonuses,
installments or interests in all types of commercial or civil
corporations, communities or associations and all types
of securities and other instruments.
The Corporation agreed to change the company’s firm
name from Inversiones D&S Chile Ltda. to Inversiones
Walmart Chile Ltda. at a special shareholders meeting
held 20 May 2011..
2. Basis of preparation
The main accounting policies used for the formulation
of these consolidated financial statements are described
as follows. These policies have been designed based on
International Financial Reporting Standards (hereinafter
IFRS) and their interpretations, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (hereinafter “IASB”) in
effect as of 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011,
considering Securities and Insurance Supervisor (hereinafter SVS) additional information requirements, which
do not contradict IFRS, and which are uniformly applied
to all periods presented in these financial statements.
The information contained in these consolidated financial statements is the responsibility of the group’s Board
of Directors, which expressly states that it is aware of the
information contained in these consolidated financial
statements and is responsible for the information contained in these financial statements, as well as the application of the principles and criteria included in the IFRS and
standards issued by the SVS. These financial statements
were approved by the Board of Directors 27 March 2013.
2.1. Consolidated financial statements
These consolidated financial statements for Inversiones
Walmart Chile Ltda. and its subsidiaries for the fiscal
year ending 31 December 2012 have been prepared in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and their interpretations in effect as of 31
December 2012 and considering Securities and Insurance Supervisor (SVS) additional information requirements,
which do not contradict IFRS.
2.2. Basis of measurement
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the historical cost principle, except for the valuation of certain financial assets and liabilities (including derivative financial instruments) that are
valued at fair value. (See note on financial instruments).
Preparation of these consolidated financial statements in
accordance with IFRS requires the use of certain critical
accounting calculations. It also requires the Administration to exercise judgment in the process of applying the
Corporation’s accounting policies. In the note on managing estimates and critical judgment or criteria, we have
included information about areas that require a greater
degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where the
hypotheses and estimates are significant for the consolidated financial statements.
The consolidated financial statements are presented
using income statements by function and the consolidated indirect cash flow statement.
Some comparative financial statement balances from
2011 were reclassified in order to ensure these would
be consistent with the 31 December 2012 financial statements.
2.3. Functional and presentation currency
The consolidated financial statements are presented in
Chilean pesos, which is the functional and presentation
currency of the company. All of the group’s companies
based in Chile have determined that their functional currency is the Chilean peso and that items included in the
financial statements of each entity are measured using
that currency. All information is presented in thousand of
Chilean pesos and has been rounded to the nearest unit,
unless stated otherwise.

2.4. New standards and interpretations issued. Invalid standards and interpretations
At the date these consolidated financial statements were issued, certain amendments, improvements and interpretations
have been published. These came into force during the 2012 fiscal year and have been adopted by the Corporation. These
standards became mandatory as of the dates indicated below:

Amendment to IAS 1Presentation of financial statements
07-01-2012
The new standards, improvements and/or amendments
are described as follows:
IFRS 1
“First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards”
Issued in December 2010, this discusses exemptions due
to severe hyperinflation. It allows companies whose transition date comes after functional currency normalization to value assets and liabilities at fair value as attributed costs and to remove fixed date requirements. It also
adjusts the fixed date included in IFRS 1 to the transition
date for operations involving the reduction of financial
assets and assets or liabilities to fair value for income under initial recognition.
IFRS 7
“Financial Instruments: Disclosures”
Issued in October 2010, this standard increases disclosure requirements for transactions involving the transfer of
financial assets. No comparative information is required
for the first year of application.
IAS 12
“Income Taxes”
Issued in December 2010, this amendment provides an
exception to the general principles of IAS 12 for investment properties measured using the fair value model
contained in IAS 40 “Investment property”. The exception also applies to investment property acquired in a
business merger if the purchaser applies the fair value
model contained in IAS 40 after the business merger.
This amendment incorporates the assumption that investment properties valued at fair value are realized
through sale and therefore a tax rate must be applied
to temporary differences stemming from these for sales
operations. Early adoption is allowed.
IAS 1
“Presentation of Financial Statements”
Issued in June 2011. The main change in this amendment is that Other Comprehensive Income must be classified and grouped, determining if these will be potentially reclassified for income in subsequent periods. Early
adoption is allowed.

The Corporation’s administration believes that none of
these standards will have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements when applied, if required.
IFRS 11
“Joint arrangements”
IFRS 11 replaces IAS 31 Interests in joint ventures and IAS
13 Jointly controlled entities - non-monetary contributions by venturers. IFRS 11 uses some of the same terms
used in IAS 31, but with different meanings. Whereas IAS
31 identifies three types of joint ventures, IFRS 11 describes two types of joint arrangements (joint ventures and
joint operations) when there is joint control. Since IFRS
11 uses the principle of control from IFRS 10 to identify
control, the determination of whether there is joint control may change. In addition, IFRS 11 removes the option of using proportionate consolidation to account for
jointly controlled entities (JCEs). Instead, JECs that meet
the definition of joint ventures must be accounted for
using the equity method. For joint operations, which include jointly controlled assets, former jointly controlled
operations and initial jointly controlled operations (JCEs),
an entity must declare its existing assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. The issuing of IFRS 11 changed IAS
01-01-2015
28 to a limited extent regarding issues related to associated entities and control entities available for the sale
and changes of interests remaining in associated entities
and jointly controlled entities, which must be disclosed
in that event.
IFRS 12
“Disclosure of interests in other entities”
IFRS 12 includes all disclosures previously described in
IAS 27 related to consolidation and also disclosures previously included in IAS 31 and IAS 28. These disclosures
are referred to in interests related to an entity, joint arrangements and structured entities and associates. A number of new disclosures are also required, which must be
disclosed in that event.
IFRS 13
“Fair value measurement”
IFRS 13 establishes standard guidelines as to how to
measure fair value, when this is required or allowed by
IFRS. This does not change when an entity is required
to use fair value. The standard changes the definition of
fair value - Fair value: The price that would be received
to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
Inversiones walmart chile limitada and subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
transaction between market participants at the measurement date (a starting price). In addition, this standard
incorporates new disclosures, which must be disclosed
in that event.
IAS 19
“Employee benefits”
On 16 June 2011 the IASB published amendments to IAS
19, Employee Benefits, which changed accounting requirements for set benefit plans and termination benefits. These amendments required recognition of changes
in obligations for specified benefits and in plan assets
when these take place, eliminating the broker focus and
accelerating the recognition of past services. Changes
in the obligatory nature of specified benefits and plan
assets are broken down into three components: service
costs, net interest over net liabilities (assets) for specified
benefits and net liability (asset) remediation for specified
benefits. Net interest is calculated using a return rate for
high quality corporate bonds. This could be less than
the rate currently used to calculate expected return over
plan assets, leading to lower profits during the fiscal year.
These amendments are applicable to annual periods
starting on or after 1 January 2013 and early application
is allowed. Retrospective application is required with certain exceptions, which must be disclosed in that event.
IAS 28
“Investments in associates and joint ventures”
Issued in May 2011, IAS 28 Investments in associates and
joint ventures determines accounting requirements for
investments in associates and establishes requirements
for application of the interest method when accounting
for investments in associates and joint ventures, which
must be disclosed in that event.
IFRIC 20
“Stripping costs in the production phase of a surface
mine”
Issued in October 2011, this standard regulates stripping
costs in the production phase of a mine as an asset, as
well as initial and subsequent measurement of this asset.
In addition, the interpretation requires mining entities
that present financial statements in accordance with
IFRS to punish existing stripping costs assets against accumulated profits when these cannot be attributed to
an identifiable component of a deposit, which must be
disclosed in that event.
IFRS 7
“Financial instruments: disclosures”
An amendment to IFRS 7 was issued in December 2011.
This amendment requires entities to disclose the effects
or possible effects of financial instrument compensation
agreements on the entity’s financial position in financial information. This standard is applicable starting 1
January 2013, which must be disclosed in that event.
IFRS 1
“First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards”
Issued in March 2012. This provides an exception with
retroactive application to the recognition and measurement of loans received from the Government at the
transaction date. Early adoption is allowed, which must
be disclosed in that event.
IAS 1
Presentation of financial statements
“Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle”, issued in May
2012, amended paragraphs 10, 38 and 41, eliminated
paragraphs 39-40 and added paragraphs 38A-38D and
40A-40D, which clarify the difference between voluntary
additional comparative information and the minimum
comparative information required. The minimum comparative period generally required is the former period.
An entity is required to include comparative information in notes related to the financial statements when
this entity voluntarily provides comparative information
beyond the minimum comparative period required. The
additional comparative period does not need to contain
a complete set of financial statements. In addition, initial balance sheet amounts (known as the third balance)
must be presented under the following circumstances:
when an entity changes its accounting policies; makes
retroactive restatements or reclassifications, and this is
the change that exerts a material effect on the balance
sheets. The initial amount stated in the balance sheets
would be at the start of the former period. However, in
contrast with voluntary comparative information, related
notes do not have to be included in the third balance.
Entities will be required to apply this amendment retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies,
Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors for annual
periods starting 1 January 2013. Early application is
allowed, which must be disclosed in that event.
IAS 16
“Property, plant and equipment”
“Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle”, issued in May
2012, amended paragraph 8. This amendment clarifies
that replacement parts and auxiliary equipment that
comply with the definition of property, plant and equipment are not inventory. Entities will be required to apply
this amendment retrospectively in accordance with IAS
8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates
and Errors for annual periods starting 1 January 2013.
Early application is allowed, which must be disclosed in
that event.

IAS 34
“Interim financial information”
“Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle”, issued in May
2012, amended paragraph 16A. This amendment clarifies requirements in IAS 34 related to information held by
operating segments regarding total assets and liabilities
for each of the operating segments in order to improve
coherence with the requirements of IFRS 8 Operating
Segments. The amended paragraph 16A establishes
that the total assets and liabilities for a specific operating
segment shall only be disclosed when the amounts are
regularly measured by senior management and when
there is a material change in how information disclosed
in the former financial statements is compared for this
operating segment. Entities will be required to apply this
amendment retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and
Errors for annual periods starting 1 January 2013. Early
application is allowed, which must be disclosed in that
event.
IAS 32
“Financial instruments: presentation”
“Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle”, issued in May
2012, amended paragraphs 35, 37 and 39 and added paragraph 35A, indicating that tax for income shared with
an entity’s shareholders is to be accounted for in accordance with IAS 12 Income taxes. This amendment eliminated the existing income tax requirements in IAS 32
and requires entities to apply IAS 12 requirements to any
tax for income distributed to an entity’s shareholders.
An entity will apply these amendments retrospectively
in accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes
in Accounting Estimates and Errors for annual periods
starting as of 1 January 2013. Early application is allowed,
which must be disclosed in that event.
Amendments to IAS 32 issued in December 2011 are
designed to clear up differences regarding the relative
application of compensation and to reduce the level of
diversity in current practices. This standard is applicable
as of 1 January 2014 and early adoption is allowed.
IFRS 10
“Consolidated Financial Statements”, IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities”, IAS 27 “Separate Financial Statements”
Amendments made to IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial
Statements, IFRS 12 Disclosure of Participation in Other
Entities and IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements stem
from the Exposure Draft on Investment Entities published in August 2011. These amendments define investment entities and introduce an exception for consolidating certain subsidiaries belonging to investment
entities. These amendments require investment entities
to assess these subsidiaries at fair value with changes
made to income statements in accordance with IFRS 9
Financial Instruments in their separate consolidated financial statements. These amendments also introduce
new disclosure requirements regarding investment entities in IFRS 12 and in IAS 27. Entities are required to apply
amendments to annual periods starting 1 January 2014,
which is to be disclosed in this case. Early application is
allowed.
IFRS 9
“Financial Instruments”
This standard introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets, allowing
early application. It requires all financial assets to be fully
classified based on the entity’s business model for managing financial assets and contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets. Financial assets under this standard are measured at either amortized cost or fair value.
Only financial assets classified as having been measured
at amortized cost shall be tested for depreciation. Their
application is effective for annual periods starting on or
after 1 January 2015, which is to be disclosed in this case.
Early adoption is allowed.
3. Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies established hereinafter have
been consistently applied to the consolidated financial
statements and have been consistently applied to all of
the group’s companies.
3.1. Basis of consolidation
3.1.1 Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are defined as all entities that the Walmart
Chile Group controls. When determining whether the
company controls another entity, the existence and
effect of potential voting rights that are actually exercisable or convertible are taken into consideration. Subsidiaries are consolidated as of the date when control is
transferred and they are excluded from consolidation at
the time such control terminates.
The acquisition method is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries. Acquisition cost is the reasonable
value of assets delivered, equity instruments issued and
liabilities incurred or assumed the date of the transaction.
Identifiable assets acquired and the identifiable liabilities
and contingencies assumed in a business merger are initially valued at their fair value at the date of acquisition,
regardless the extent of minority interests. Acquisition
Inversiones walmart chile limitada and subsidiaries
177
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
cost in excess of the company’s fair value in the share of
identifiable net assets required is recognized as purchased goodwill. If the acquisition cost is lower than the fair
value of the acquired subsidiary’s net assets, the difference is directly recognized in the income statement.
Consolidation eliminates inter-company transaction
balances, as well as unrealized expenses and income
for transactions between consolidated entities. Losses
stemming from a transaction between consolidated entities are also eliminated, unless the transaction provides
evidence of loss due to depreciation of the transferred
asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries are modified
when necessary in order to ensure uniformity with policies adopted by Walmart Chile Group.
The Corporation does not own any special purpose entities.
Direct, first-line subsidiaries included in the consolidation and related companies from the different business segments
are listed as follows:

(*) Sociedad Comercial D&S S.A. changed its firm name to Walmart Chile Comercial S.A. 1 July 2011. This change was agreed to at a special shareholders meeting held 29
April 2011.
(**) Servicios Financieros D&S S.A. changed its firm name to Walmart Chile Servicios Financieros S.A. 1 July 2011. This change was agreed to at a special shareholders
meeting held 28 April 2011.
(***) Sociedad Anónima Inmobiliaria, Terrenos y Establecimientos Comerciales changed its firm name to Walmart Chile Inmobiliaria S.A. 1 July 2011. This change was
agreed to at a special shareholders meeting held 27 April 2011.
(****) Walmart Chile Servicios Financieros S.A. changed its firm name to Walmart Chile Servicios Financieros Ltda. 31 August 2012. This change was agreed to at a special
shareholders meeting held 31 August 2012.
The subsidiary Inversiones Walmart Chile Ltda. purchased the remaining 50% stake in the subsidiary companies Alimentos y Servicios S.A. and Inversiones Solpacific
S.A. 15 July 2011. These corporations are therefore presented as consolidated in these financial statements.
A reorganization process for the retail segment corporations was completed in 2011. This process meant the
merger of all corporations operating under the supermarket and hypermarket formats into two new legal
entities that currently operate under these formats.
This process simplified the Walmart Chile S.A. corporate structure in order to support the company’s growth,
make the taxation process more efficient and provide
flexibility for future needs in the business. As part of this
process, two new corporations called Inversiones Pacifico LLC and Walmart Chile Comercial LLC were created.
These respectively purchased minority stakes in Inversiones Walmart Chile Ltda. and Walmart Chile Comercial S.A.
The company completed a corporate reorganization
process for the financial segment in 2012. This process
divided Sociedad Administradora de Créditos Comercial
Presto Ltda. and a new corporation bearing the same
name was founded. The new corporation is responsible
for managing the Presto card while the former Administradora de Créditos Comercial Presto Ltda. was renamed
Inversiones Presto Tres Ltda. Its corporate purpose and
firm name were subsequently modified and the company became Walmart Chile Comercial Ltda. In addition,
as part of this process, the corporation Inversiones Cordilleras LLC was founded. This corporation purchased a
majority stake in Inversiones Renta Presto S.A..

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
3.1.2 Transactions and uncontrolled interests
The Inversiones Walmart Chile Group applies the policy
of treating transactions with uncontrolled interests as if
these were transactions with Group shareholders. In the
case of purchasing non-controlling interests, the difference between any compensation paid and the corresponding share in the book value of net assets purchased
from the subsidiary are recognized in equity. Income and
losses due to write-offs that benefit the minority share
are also recognized in equity, as long as control is maintained.
3.2. Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all of the entities that the Inversiones
Walmart Chile Group influences a significant influence
on but does not control. This is generally accompanied
by an interest amounting to between 20% and 50% of
the voting shares. Investment in subsidiaries is accounted for by means of the equity method and this is initially
recognized by cost. Inversiones Walmart Chile Group’s
investment in subsidiaries includes purchased goodwill
identified in the acquisition, net of any losses due to accumulated depreciation.
The Inversiones Walmart Chile Group’s participation in
losses or gains after the purchase of its related companies or subsidiaries is recognized in the balance sheets
by function and is included in the “Participation in income (loss) of subsidiaries accounted for using the income
equity method” line item, and its participation in equity movement after the purchase that does not include
results is assigned to the corresponding equity reserves
(and indicated as corresponding in the other comprehensive income statements).
When the Inversiones Walmart Chile Group’s participation in an associate’s losses are equivalent to or higher
than its interest in the same, including any other uninsured account receivable, the Inversiones Walmart Chile
Group does not recognize additional losses, unless it has
incurred in obligations and made payment on behalf of
the associate.
Unrealized gains from transactions between the Inversiones Walmart Chile Group and its related companies
are eliminated based on the Corporation’s interest share
in these related companies.
Unrealized losses are also eliminated, unless the transaction provides evidence of losses due to depreciation of
the asset transferred. The accounting policies of its subsidiaries are modified when required in order to ensure
uniformity with policies adopted by the Corporation.
Dilution gains or losses in related companies or subsidiaries are recognized in the comprehensive income statements.
There are no subsidiaries as of 31 December 2012 and 31
December 2011.
3.3. Exchange rate and indexation units.
Assets and liabilities held in foreign currencies and those set in unidades de fomento are presented at the following respective exchange rates and closing values:
Date
$CLP / US$
$CLP / U.F.
12-31-2011
519,20
22.294,03
12-31-2012
479,96
22.840,75
3.4. Transactions in foreign currency
Transactions in foreign currency are expressed at the
exchange rate on the transaction date. Monetary assets
and liabilities in foreign currencies at the balance date
are expressed in Chilean pesos at the exchange rate on
that date. Exchange rate differences arising from currency translation are recognized in the income statements
by function. Non-monetary assets and liabilities measured at historical cost on the basis of foreign currency are
translated using the exchange rate on the transaction
date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies and valued at their fair value are translated to
Chilean pesos at the exchange rate at which said fair value was determined.
3.5. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost and
presented net of their accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment, except for land, which is not
subject to depreciation.
This cost includes the acquisition price and all costs directly related to the location of the asset at the place
and the conditions necessary so that it can operate as
planned by the Management, if this exists, as well as the
initial estimate of the costs of dismantling, removing or
partially removing the asset, as well as remediation of
the place where it is located, for which the Corporation
is responsible.

when future economic benefits are no longer expected
from its use or disposal. Any profit or loss arising from
this asset being written off (calculated as the difference
between the net value of disposal and the asset’s book
value) is included in the income statements by function
in the fiscal year in which the asset is written off.

Financial costs related to external financing that are
directly attributable to construction. Activated financial costs are obtained by applying the weighted average cost of long-term financing associated to parent
company loans to average cumulative investment
susceptible to non-financed activation specifically, as
indicated in IAS 23R.
Depreciation is calculated over the depreciable amount,
which corresponds to the cost of an asset or another
amount that substitutes for the cost, minus its residual
value.
Depreciation is recognized in income statements in a linear fashion over the estimated useful lives of each part
of a property, plant or equipment item, since these more
accurately represent the exception consumption pattern
of future economic benefits related to the asset. Assets
leased under financial lease contracts are depreciated
over the shortest period between the lease and their
useful lives, unless it is reasonably certain that the Group
will acquire the property at the end of the lease period.
When parts of a property, plant and equipment item
have different useful lives, these are recorded as separate
property, plant and equipment items (important components).
3 to 4 years
Methods used to determine depreciation, useful lives
and residual values are revised in each fiscal year and
prospectively adjusted if necessary.
When the value of an asset is higher than its estimated
recoverable amount, its value immediately declines to its
recoverable value through the application of depreciation tests.
Losses and gains from property, plant and equipment
sales are calculated by comparing income obtained to
the book value and are then included in the income statements by function.
3.6 Investment property
Investment property is real estate (land and buildings)
held to obtain economic benefits from rental or capital
appreciation. Investment property and investment property under construction are recorded at cost and presented net of their accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment, with the exception of land, which
is not subject to depreciation.
Acquisition cost and all other costs associated to investment property, as well as the effects of depreciation and
treatment of asset write-offs are recorded in the same
way as property, plant and equipment, as indicated in
foregoing point 3.5.
Estimated economic useful lives for the main elements
of investment property are listed as follows:
ʭʭ
Buildings
:
50 years

Terminations
:
15 years
ʭʭ

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
The residual values of assets, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed when preparing financial
statements each year. These are adjusted if required as a
change in prospective estimates.
Transfers to investment property only occur when there
is a change in use evidenced by the end of occupation
by owners, the start of an operating lease to another party or the end of construction or development. Transfers
from investment property only occur when there is evidence of a change in use evidenced by the start of occupation by an owner or if development is started with
expectations to sell and the fair value as of the reclassification date becomes its cost for subsequent accounting.
3.7 Intangible assets
3.7.1 Purchased goodwill
Purchased goodwill is the difference between excess
acquisition cost over the fair value of Inversiones Walmart Chile Group’s share in the identifiable net assets of
subsidiaries or related companies at the date of acquisition. Purchased goodwill related to acquisition of subsidiaries in included in the goodwill line item.
Purchased goodwill related to acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in investment in subsidiaries, accounted for using the equity method, and is subjected to
impairment testing together with the total amount of
associated investment. Purchased goodwill is separately subjected to impairment testing on an annual basis
and is valued at cost minus accumulated losses due to
depreciation. Gains and losses from the sale of an entity
include the book value of purchased goodwill related to
the entity sold.
The cash-generating unit is defined as the smallest group
of assets for which independent cash flow can be identified. In this context, the Corporation has determined that
this condition is met at each individual store considered.
Purchased goodwill is assigned to cash-generating units
for impairment testing. This is distributed between those cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating
units expected to benefit from the business merger that
created the goodwill.
The existence of purchased goodwill depreciation is
measured on an annual basis.
The greater value from acquisition of an investment or
business merger is credited directly to the income statements by function.
Purchased goodwill does not have a specific useful life.
3.7.2 Commercial rights and trademarks
Commercial rights and trademarks have an indefinite
useful life and are recorded at cost minus accumulated
depreciation. Impairment testing is conducted annually
at an individual level or at the cash-flow generating level..
3.7.3 Computer programs
Computer software licenses acquired and developed by
third parties are capitalized on the basis of costs incurred
to acquire and prepare for using a specific program minus amortization and losses due to accumulated depreciation. Amortization is calculated on a linear basis and
its effect on income is presented in the administrative
expenses line item.
The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods range between 4 and 6 years.
Expenses related to the development or maintenance of
computer programs are recognized as expenses when
these are incurred.
3.8 Financing costs
Interest costs incurred for construction of any qualified
asset classified under the property, plant and equipment
line item are capitalized over the period of time required
in order to complete and prepare the asset for the intended use, according to IAS 23R. Other interest costs are
recorded in income (expenses).
3.9 Impairment of non-financial assets
Assets with an indefinite useful life are not subject to
amortization and are subjected to impairment testing
on an annual basis. Assets subject to depreciation or
amortization are subjected to impairment testing when
some event or change in circumstances indicates that
the book value may not be recoverable.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating
unit is the greater value between its value in use and its
fair value, minus sale costs. In order to determine value
in use, future estimated cash flows are deducted from
its present value using a discount rate before tax that reflects current market assessment over the temporary value of money and the specific risks an asset may have. In
order to assess depreciation, assets that cannot be individually tested are grouped together in the smallest asset
group that generates cash inflows from continued use,
which are independent of cash inflows from other assets
or asset groups (the “cash generating unit”). Depending
on the date when an operating segment’s value is tested for the purpose of goodwill impairment testing, the
cash-generating units that have been assigned goodwill
are added together so that the level impairment is tested
Inversiones walmart chile limitada and subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
at reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes.
The Group’s corporate assets do not generate separate
cash inflows. If there is any indication that a corporate
asset may be impaired, the recoverable amount is determined and assigned for the cash-generating unit the
corporate asset belongs to.
Impairment is recognized if the book value of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable
amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the income statements.
Impairment losses recognized in relation to cash-generating units are assigned first, in order to reduce the book
value of any goodwill assigned to the units and then to
reduce the book value of other assets in the unit (group
of units) on a pro rata basis.
Impairment loss for goodwill is not reverted. With regard to other assets, impairment losses recognized in
previous periods are evaluated at least once per year in
pursuit of any indication that the loss has been reduced
or has disappeared. An impairment loss is reverted if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is only
reverted to the extent that the book value of the asset
does not exceed the book value that would have been
determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if the
impairment loss had not been recognized.
Goodwill that is part of the book value of an investment
in a related company is not recognized separately and
is consequently not subjected to separate impairment
tests. Instead, the total amount invested in a subsidiary
is tested for impairment as a unique asset when there is
objective evidence that the investment may be impaired.
As indicated in the note on criteria for property, plant and
equipment, when the value of an asset is greater than its
estimated recoverable amount, its value is immediately
reduced to the recoverable amount through recognition of impairment losses. Impairment losses amounting to CLP 1,841,399,000 were declared 31 December
2012. Property, plant and equipment impairment losses
amounting to CLP 1,476,560,000 were declared 31 December 2011.
3.10 Categories of non-derivative financial instruments
The Inversiones Walmart Chile Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: at fair value
through profit or loss, loans and accounts receivable, and
available for sale. Classification depends on the purpose
for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets
at the time of initial recognition.
3.10.1 Financial assets at fair value through profit or
loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for negotiation or designated as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss when
initially recognized.
A financial asset is classified in this category if it is acquired mainly for the purpose of selling the asset in the
short term.
Assets in this category are classified as current assets.
3.10.2 Loans and accounts receivable
Loans and accounts receivable are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or ascertainable payments that are
not quoted on the active market.
Assets in this category are classified as current, except for
those with maturities longer than 12 months from the
date that the balance sheets were issued, which are classified as non-current assets.
Loans and accounts receivable include trade and other
accounts receivable and receivable rights.
3.10.3 Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives assigned to this category or which are not assigned to any
of the other categories.
These are included in non-current assets unless management plans to dispose of the investment within 12
months from the date the financial statements were issued.
3.10.4 Recognition and measurement of financial assets
Acquisition and disposal of financial assets are recognized at the negotiation date, which is to say the date
when the Inversiones Walmart Chile Group commits to
acquire or sell the asset.
Financial assets are initially recognized at their fair value
plus transaction costs, for all financial assets not charged
at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs include fees and commissions paid to agents (including
employees who act as sales agents), consultants and
intermediaries, rates established by regulatory agencies
and stock exchanges, as well as taxes and other duties to
181
Inversiones walmart chile limitada and subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
which the transaction is subject. Transaction costs do not
include premiums or discounts for debt, financial costs,
maintenance costs or internal administrative costs.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at their fair value and transaction costs
are changed to income.
companies. These derivative financial instruments are
initially recognized at fair value at the date the respective
contract is signed and are measured again at fair value
thereafter. Derivatives are recorded in the other financial
assets line item if they have a positive value and in the
other financial liabilities line item if they have a negative
fair value.
Financial assets are written off for accounting purposes
when the rights to receive cash flows from investments
have expired or have been transferred and the Inversiones Walmart Chile Group has substantially transferred all
risk and benefits of ownership.
Any profit or loss arising from changes in the fair value
of derivatives during the fiscal year is directly recorded in
the income statement by function in the income statements by function in the other income or expenses line
item.
Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at
fair value through profit or loss are recorded at their fair
value (with a balancing entry in other comprehensive income and income, respectively).
These instruments were designated for negotiation
at the time of issue. However, these provide hedging
against financial risk.
Loans and accounts receivable are recorded at their
amortized cost according to the effective interest rate
method.
The effective interest rate method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or liability
(or a group of financial assets or liabilities) and charged
to financial income or expense throughout the relevant
period. The effective interest rate is a discount rate that
ensures that the estimated cash flows to be received or
paid over the expected lifetime of the financial instrument (or, when appropriate, over a shorter period) are
the same as the net book amount of the financial asset
or liability. In order to calculate the effective interest rate,
an entity will estimate cash flows considering all contractual conditions for the financial instrument.
Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value
of financial assets to fair value through profit or loss are
included in the income statements by function for the
fiscal period in which these changes in fair value are generated.
Dividend income from financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss and available for sale are recognized in the income statements by function in the other
income line item once the Inversiones Walmart Chile
Group’s right to receive dividend payments has been
established.
3.11 Derivative financial instruments
The Inversiones Walmart Chile Group uses derivative
financial instruments such as interest rate swap and
currency forward contracts to hedge against risks related to fluctuations in interest rates and exchange rates
that affect its financial obligations to banks and related
The Corporation has declared that there are no implicit
derivatives in its contracts as of 31 December 2012 and
31 December 2011.
3.12. Depreciation of financial assets
A financial asset that is not recorded at fair value through
profit or loss is assessed at each balance date to determine if there is objective evidence of impairment. A financial asset is impaired if there is objective evidence that
a loss event has occurred after initial recognition of the
asset and that this loss event has had a negative effect
on future cash flows of the asset that can be reliably calculated.
The Group uses variables based on arrears, cash flows
related to charges to customers, recoveries, customer
segments, product types, the amount of loss incurred
and comparisons with recognized practices in the financial market, adjusted according to current economic
and credit conditions that are likely to result in real losses
being greater or lower than those suggested by historical trends.
An impairment loss related to a financial asset valued at
amortized cost is calculated as the difference between
the asset’s book value and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest
rate. Losses are recognized in the income statements
and are reflected in a provision account against accounts
receivable (see chart on impairment of trade and other
accounts receivable and unpaid with impairment, in the
note on Trade and the other accounts receivable item).
Interest on the impaired asset will continue to be recognized through reversal of the effective rate. When a
subsequent event causes a reduction in the loss amount,
this reduction is reversed in the income statements .
Inversiones walmart chile limitada and subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
3.13 Inventories
Inventories are valued at the acquisition cost or net realizable value as of 31 December 2011, whichever is lower.
Net realizable value represents the estimated sales value
of inventories during the normal course of business, minus all remaining production costs (own manufactured
goods) and costs required in order to execute the sale.
The costing method corresponds to the weighted average price. Stock in transit is valued at acquisition cost.
Imports in transit are recorded when they are found under categories that transfer risks and benefits to the Corporation, i.e. “FOB”.
Commercial discounts, other discounts and other similar
items are recognized as a reduction in the sale cost of
products sold or the value of stock. These agreements
are part of a public document “General terms and conditions for provisioning merchandise”, which was designed
to establish the terms and conditions that regulate relations between Walmart and its Suppliers.
The Corporation only recognizes the benefits of these
agreements with suppliers when there is evidence of the
agreement, when benefit amounts can be reasonably
estimated and reception is likely.
The Corporation modified the method used for valuation of non-perishable inventories held at points of sale
to the retail cost method as of the 2012 fiscal year. Cost
was determined using the average cost or net realization
value methods, whichever was lower, up until the 2011
fiscal year. The new costing method is determined by
deducing the inventory sale price, a percentage of the
average gross margin associated to each commercial
department. The percentage applied considers the mark
down of stock that has been valued below its original
sale price.
In order to properly record its stock, the company makes
estimates for damage and obsolescence of its inventories. These estimates are based on historical experience
and are reviewed at the annual closure date for the financial statements.
3.14 Trade and other accounts receivable
Trade and other accounts receivable are initially recognized at their fair value (a nominal value that includes implicit interest) and subsequently at their amortized cost
according to the effective interest rate method, minus
any reduction for value impairment.
An estimate is established for impairment losses of trade receivables when there is objective evidence that the
company will not be able to collect all amounts owed
in accordance with the original terms of the accounts
receivable. Some indicators of possible impairment of
accounts receivable are debtors› financial difficulties, the
likelihood of the debtor entering into bankruptcy or financial reorganization and non-compliance or failure to
make payment, as well as experience regarding the behavior and characteristics of the overall portfolio.
In order to assess and record impairment, the portfolio is
segmented by type of debtor and credit up to the levels
considered appropriate. Trade receivables presently include only operations that can be classified as consumption and therefore information about these receivables
only refers to this concept.
Impairment estimates are based on a loss approach that
aims to capture objective evidence of the impairment of
operations, which enables the company to predict which
future flows will not be received as agreed. Payment expectations are also considered in terms of the amount
and timing and the valuation of such losses based on the
difference between contractual flows and flows adjusted
for impairment. The latter are updated at the effective
loan interest rate. The amount associated to impairment
estimation is presented net of trade and other accounts
payable and its effect on income is recognized by recording it as part of administrative expenses.
3.15. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash balances, bank
and other investments in fixed income mutual fund
shares in Chilean pesos that mature in less than three
months and present low risk of any change in value. Any
existing overdrafts are classified in the balance sheets as
loans in current liabilities at amortized cost.
3.16 Share capital
Share capital is represented by contributions paid.
3.17 Trade and other accounts payable
Trade and other accounts payable are recognized at
amortized cost, which is not different from their nominal
value, since average payment time is reduced.
3.18 Loans and other financial liabilities
The group initially recognizes debt instruments issued
and financial liabilities on the date of their origination. All
other financial liabilities (including liabilities designated
at fair value through profit or loss) are initially recognized
at the transaction date when the group becomes a party
to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
183
Inversiones walmart chile limitada and subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
The group writes off a financial liability when its contractual obligations are settled or expire.
Loans, public obligations and financial liabilities of a similar nature are initially recognized at their fair value, net of
costs incurred in the transaction. These are subsequently
valued at amortized cost and any difference between
the funds obtained (net of the costs necessary to obtain
them) and the reimbursement value is recognized in the
income statement over the life of the debt according to
the effective interest rate method..
3.19 Income taxes and deferred income taxes
Income taxes recorded in the income statement by
function for the first year includes current and deferred
income taxes.
Income taxes are directly recognized in the income statement by function except for those related to items that
are directly recognized in equity.
Current income tax is tax expected to be paid for the
year, calculated using rates in effect at the date of the
balance sheet and also includes any adjustment to tax to
be paid for previous years.
Deferred income tax is calculated considering differences between the book value of assets and liabilities reported for financial purposes and the amounts used for
tax purposes.
Deferred taxes are valued at tax rates expected to be
applied when the temporary differences are reversed,
based on laws that have been approved or are about to
be approved as of the balance sheet date. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are presented in net form if there is
an enforceable legal right to adjust current tax liabilities
and assets for current taxes, and these are related to the
income tax applied by the same tax authority to the
same taxpaying entity, or to different taxpaying entities,
but the current tax liabilities and assets are to be settled
in net form, or its tax assets and liabilities will be realized
at the same time.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that there will likely be future taxable profits against which these
assets could be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reduced
to the extent that the related benefit will not likely be
obtained.
The Corporation does not record deferred taxes for temporary differences arising between investments in subsidiaries and related companies, since the date when
these will revert is monitored and these are not likely to
revert in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and temporary deductible differences
to the extent that future taxable gains will likely exist
against which these can be used. Deferred tax assets are
reviewed at each balance sheet date and are reduced
when it is not likely that the related tax benefits will be
obtained.
3.20 Employee benefits
Employee benefits are recognized when there is a current legal or construction obligation to pay the amount
as the result of a service provided by the employee in the
past and the obligation can be reliably estimated.
3.20.1 Employee vacations
The Corporation recognizes employee vacation expenses to the extent that this right is earned. This is a shortterm obligation that is recorded at nominal value.
3.20.2 Incentives
The Corporation provides an annual incentive plan for
its employees for meeting goals and individual contributions to income.
Incentives, which are eventually delivered, consist of
a certain number or portion of monthly salaries and
are recognized when they are likely to be paid and the
amount can be reliably estimated.
3.21 Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the group has a present
(legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past
event and it is likely that a resource disbursement, including economic benefits, will be required to settle the
obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount owed
can be made. When the group expects part or all of the
provision to be reimbursed, for example under an issuance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually
certain. Expenses related to any provision are presented
in the income statement net of any reimbursement. If
the effect of the value over time of the money is material, provisions are discounted using a rate that reflects,
when appropriate, the specific risks of the liability. When
the discount is used, the increased value of the provision
owing to the passage of time is recognized as a financial
cost.
A provisions for onerous contracts is recognized when
the economic benefits the Group anticipates from the
contract are less than the inevitable costs of complying
with the contract obligations. The provision is recognized at the present value of the lesser of the anticipated
costs of settling the contract and the anticipated net

cost of continuing with the contract. Prior to establishing
a provision, the group recognizes any impairment loss of

provisions of this kind.
maturity date and up until invoicing (inclusive). On
the invoicing date, interest is projected as of the date
after invoicing and up until the date of maturity.

Default interest: interest calculated based on the
customer’s overdue debt. This is calculated on a daily
basis or project according to a parameterized default
rate. This interest is charged daily starting on the maturity date and up until invoicing (inclusive). On the
invoicing date, interest is projected from the day after
invoicing to the date of maturity. When the loan installment matures the next month, interest is projected to the end of the month, and a second projection
is made from the first day of the month until the day
before maturity.
3.22 Revenue from ordinary activities
Ordinary revenue includes the fair value of the considerations received or to be received for the sale of goods
and services in the ordinary course of the Corporation’s
activities. Ordinary revenue is presented net of sales tax,
returns and discounts.
The Corporation recognizes revenue when the amount
of the same can be reliably calculated, when future
economic benefits are likely to be received by the entity and the specific conditions are met for each of
the Corporation’s activities. Accurate valuation of the
amount of revenue is not considered possible until all
contingencies related to the sale of the good or service provision have been settled. Revenue from the sale
of merchandise is recognized in the income statement
when the significant risks and benefits of ownership of
goods are transferred to the buyer. Revenue is not recognized if there is significant uncertainty regarding collection, associated costs, possible return of goods or continued administrative involvement in this revenue.
Income from financial interest and adjustments is accrued as a function of the issuing of consumer loans
based on pending capital payment, and is recognized
using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the discount rate that exactly balances the
cash flows to be received with the net book value of the
asset. Calculation of the effective interest rate, when corresponding to commissions and other paid items such
as transaction costs, is incremental and directly attributable to the transaction. The Corporation ceases to recognize financial income when recovery is considered to be
highly unlikely.
The main operations that generate financial interest income are listed as follows:
ʭʭ
Installment loan interest: interest agreed to at the
effective date of the transaction and which is calculated by applying the rate (in basis 365) to the unpaid
loan balance when the installment is invoiced.
ʭʭ
Line of credit or revolving interest: interest calculated
for the revolving debt or use the customer makes of
his or her line of credit. This is calculated on a daily
basis or project according to a parameterized revolving rate. This interest is charged daily starting on the
Income from commissions is recognized in the consolidated income statement using different criteria, depending on the nature of these commissions. Those that
correspond to a single act are recorded directly in the
income statement. Those stemming from transactions or
services that occur over time are accrued over the credit
term.
Income from the lease of investment property is recognized in the income statement using the linear method
during the rental period. Other services are recognized
on an accrual basis depending on the conditions established in the contracts and business agreements.
Income from insurance brokerage is recognized in accordance with how the service is rendered, based on the
term agreed with the insurance companies.
Walmart Chile continues to operate a customer loyalty
program known as “Mi Club Lider”. Each time a customer purchases an eligible product or service, whether at
Walmart Chile or at a related business, he or she receives “Lider pesos,” which can be exchanged for products
in the next quarter. According to IFRIC 13, each time a
customer buys a product that generates “Lider pesos,”
the amount received is proportionately assigned to the
products purchased and these “Lider pesos” become
income deferred in liabilities until they are used. The
amount of the deferred income includes the estimate
of the likelihood that these “Lider pesos” will be used.
This is calculated based on historical statistics of unused
points that have expired. The fair value of “Lider pesos”
is equivalent to the same amount of pesos expressed in
the Corporation’s functional currency: the Chilean peso.
185
Inversiones walmart chile limitada and subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
“Lider pesos” are used by clients as a means of payment
for their purchases at the Corporation’s stores.
The Corporation reports deferred income from different
transactions for which it receives cash when the aforementioned conditions for reporting income have not
been met, such as cash received upon issuing rental
contracts.
3.23 Cost of sales
Cost of sales includes the cost of purchasing products
sold and other costs incurred in order to make stock
available at locations and in conditions required for sale.
These costs mainly include net purchasing costs for discounts obtained, non-recoverable warehousing costs
and taxes, insurance and product transport to distribution centers.
Cost of sales includes losses due to impairment of the loan portfolio, net of recovery and financial costs related to the financial segment.
As of the 2012 fiscal year, the retail cost method is applied
to the non-perishable category available for sale at stores. This is calculated by deducing the inventory sale price, a percentage of the gross margin associated to each
commercial department.
3.24 Leases
3.24.1 The Group as lessee
Financial leases, which transfer substantially all risks and
benefits incidental to the property of a leased item to the
Group, are capitalized at the start of the rental period at
the fair value of the property leased or if lower, at the current value of minimum lease payments. Lease payments
are distributed between financing charges and the reduction of the lease obligation to obtain a constant interest rate on the unpaid liability balance. Financial costs
are charged in the income statement by function.
Leases in which the lessor conserves a significant part of
the risks and benefits of asset ownership are classified as
operative leases. Payments for operative leases are charged in the income statement by function on a linear basis over the lease period for the fixed party. Variable profit
is recognized as expenses for the fiscal year in which the
obligation was created, as are profit increases indexed to
consumption variation.
3.24.2 The Group as leaser
When assets are leased under a financial rental agreement, the current value of lease payments is recognized
as an account receivable. The difference between the
gross amount to be received and the current value of
that amount is recognized as financial return on the capital.
Income from financial leases is recognized in the lease
period using the net investment method, which reflects
a constant periodic rate of return.
Assets leased to third parties under operative lease contracts are included in the property, plant and equipment
item or investment property item, whichever applies.
Income derived from operative leases is recognized in
linear form over the rental period.
3.25 Financial information by operating segment
An operating segment is a component of the group that
participates in business activities in which it may obtain
income or incur expenses, including income and expenses related to transactions with other components of the
Group.
Information by segment is presented consistently with
internal reports provided to those responsible for making relevant operating decisions. These executives are
responsible for assigning resources and evaluating the
performance of operating segments, which have been
identified as retail, real estate and financial services, for
those who make strategic decisions, as indicated in
IFRS 8 “Operating segments”. Information related to the
company’s operating segments is disclosed in the note
on information by segment.

3.28 Environment
Advance lease payments are recorded, related to the
different long-term lease operations for stores. Advance
lease payments are recorded at their historical cost and
are amortized over the duration of the respective contracts.
Disbursements related to environmental protection are
recorded against income as they are made..
3.27 Financial income and financial costs
Financial income is comprised of interest income from
invested funds (including available-for-sale financial assets), dividend income, gains from the sale of availablefor-sale financial assets, changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and gains
from hedging instruments that are recorded in income.
Interest income is recognized in the income statement at
amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.
Dividend income is recognized in the income statement
at the date when the Group’s right to receive payments
is established.
Financial costs are composed of interest expenses for
loans or financing, changes in fair value of financial assets to fair value through profit or loss and impairment
loses recognized in financial assets. Loan costs that are
not directly attributable to the acquisition, construction
or production of a qualified asset are recognized in income using the effective interest rate method .
3.29 Contingent assets and liabilities
Contingent assets are possible assets arising from past
events whose existence will be only be confirmed if one
or more uncertain events take place in the future and

Corporation does not have any recorded contingent assets or liabilities.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
1. Reporting entity
Inversiones Internacionales D&S Ltda., hereinafter the
“Corporation”, incorporated in Chile 12 June 2008 and
domiciled in the city of Santiago, Chile. Its corporate purpose is to invest in movable and immovable assets, tangibles and intangibles, such as shares, share pledges, bonuses, installments or interests in all types of commercial
or civil corporations, communities or associations and all
types of securities and other instruments.
At a Board of Directors meeting held 27 October 2009,
the parent company Walmart Chile S.A. decided to reduce operation of its consolidated subsidiaries Comercial
D&S Perú S.A. and Inmobiliaria D&S Perú S.A.C. and therefore commercial activities depend on the Management’s
future decisions.
The direct subsidiaries D&S Perú S.A.C, Comercial D&S
Perú S.A. and South Pacific Trade Limited are part of this
consolidated group.
2. Basis of preparation
The main accounting policies used for the formulation
of these consolidated financial statements are described
as follows. These policies have been designed based on
International Financial Reporting Standards (hereinafter
IFRS) and their interpretations, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (hereinafter “IASB”) in
effect as of 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011,
considering Securities and Insurance Supervisor (hereinafter SVS) additional information requirements, which
do not contradict IFRS, and which are uniformly applied
to all periods presented in these financial statements.
The information contained in these consolidated financial statements is the responsibility of the group’s Board
of Directors, which expressly states that it is aware of the
information contained in these consolidated financial
statements and is responsible for the information contained in these financial statements, as well as the application of the principles and criteria included in the IFRS and
standards issued by the SVS. These financial statements
were approved by the Board of Directors 27 March 2013.
2.1 Consolidated financial statements
These consolidated financial statements for Inversiones
Internacionales D&S Limitada and its subsidiaries for the
fiscal year ending 31 December 2012 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS) and their interpretations in effect as of
31 December 2012 and considering Securities and Insurance Supervisor (SVS) additional information requirements, which do not contradict IFRS.
2.2. Basis of measurement
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the historical cost principle,
except for the valuation of certain financial assets and
liabilities (including derivative financial instruments) that
are valued at fair value.
Preparation of these consolidated financial statements in
accordance with IFRS requires the use of certain critical
accounting calculations. It also requires the Administration to exercise judgment in the process of applying the
Corporation’s accounting policies. In the note on managing estimates and critical judgment or criteria, we have
included information about areas that require a greater
degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where the
hypotheses and estimates are significant for the consolidated financial statements.
The consolidated financial statements are presented
using income statements by function and the consolidated indirect cash flow statement.
Some comparative financial statement balances from
2011 were reclassified in order to ensure these would
be consistent with the 31 December 2012 financial statements.
2.3. Functional and presentation currency
The consolidated financial statements are presented in
Chilean pesos, which is the functional and presentation
currency of the company. All of the group’s companies
based in Chile have determined that their functional currency is the Chilean peso and that items included in the
financial statements of each entity are measured using
that currency. All information is presented in thousand of
Chilean pesos and has been rounded to the nearest unit,
unless stated otherwise.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
2.4 New standards and interpretations issued. Invalid standards and interpretations
At the date these consolidated financial statements were issued, certain amendments, improvements and interpretations
have been published. These came into force during the 2012 fiscal year and have been adopted by the Corporation. These
standards became mandatory as of the dates indicated below:
New standards, improvements and amendments

Amendment to IAS 12Income tax
01-01-2012
Amendment to IAS 1Presentation of financial statements
07-01-2012
The new standards, improvements and/or amendments
are described as follows:
IFRS 1
“First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards”
Issued in December 2010, this discusses exemptions due
to severe hyperinflation. It allows companies whose transition date comes after functional currency normalization to value assets and liabilities at fair value as attributed costs and to remove fixed date requirements. It also
adjusts the fixed date included in IFRS 1 to the transition
date for operations involving the reduction of financial
assets and assets or liabilities to fair value for income under initial recognition.
IFRS 7
“Financial Instruments: Disclosures”
Issued in October 2010, this standard increases disclosure requirements for transactions involving the transfer of
financial assets. No comparative information is required
for the first year of application.
IAS 12
“Income Taxes”
Issued in December 2010, this amendment provides an
exception to the general principles of IAS 12 for investment properties measured using the fair value model
contained in IAS 40 “Investment property”. The exception also applies to investment property acquired in a
business merger if the purchaser applies the fair value
model contained in IAS 40 after the business merger.
This amendment incorporates the assumption that investment properties valued at fair value are realized
through sale and therefore a tax rate must be applied
to temporary differences stemming from these for sales
operations. Early adoption is allowed.
IAS 1
“Presentation of Financial Statements”
Issued in June 2011. The main change in this amendment is that Other Comprehensive Income must be classified and grouped, determining if these will be potentially reclassified for income in subsequent periods. Early
adoption is allowed.

The Corporation’s administration believes that none of
these standards will have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements when applied, if required.
IFRS 11
“Joint arrangements”
IFRS 11 replaces IAS 31 Interests in joint ventures and IAS
13 Jointly controlled entities - non-monetary contributions by venturers. IFRS 11 uses some of the same terms
used in IAS 31, but with different meanings. Whereas IAS
31 identifies three types of joint ventures, IFRS 11 describes two types of joint arrangements (joint ventures and
joint operations) when there is joint control. Since IFRS
11 uses the principle of control from IFRS 10 to identify
control, the determination of whether there is joint control may change. In addition, IFRS 11 removes the option of using proportionate consolidation to account for
jointly controlled entities (JCEs). Instead, JECs that meet
the definition of joint ventures must be accounted for
using the equity method. For joint operations, which include jointly controlled assets, former jointly controlled
operations and initial jointly controlled operations (JCEs),
an entity must declare its existing assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. The issuing of IFRS 11 changed IAS
01-01-2015
28 to a limited extent regarding issues related to associated entities and control entities available for the sale
and changes of interests remaining in associated entities
and jointly controlled entities, which must be disclosed
in that event.
IFRS 12
“Disclosure of interests in other entities”
IFRS 12 includes all disclosures previously described in
IAS 27 related to consolidation and also disclosures previously included in IAS 31 and IAS 28. These disclosures
are referred to in interests related to an entity, joint arrangements and structured entities and associates. A number of new disclosures are also required, which must be
disclosed in that event.
IFRS 13
“Fair value measurement”
IFRS 13 establishes standard guidelines as to how to
measure fair value, when this is required or allowed by
IFRS. This does not change when an entity is required
to use fair value. The standard changes the definition of
Inversiones internacionales D&S limitada and subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
fair value - Fair value: The price that would be received
to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date (a starting price). In addition, this standard
incorporates new disclosures, which must be disclosed
in that event.
IAS 19
“Employee benefits”
On 16 June 2011 the IASB published amendments to IAS
19, Employee Benefits, which changed accounting requirements for set benefit plans and termination benefits. These amendments required recognition of changes
in obligations for specified benefits and in plan assets
when these take place, eliminating the broker focus and
accelerating the recognition of past services. Changes
in the obligatory nature of specified benefits and plan
assets are broken down into three components: service
costs, net interest over net liabilities (assets) for specified
benefits and net liability (asset) remediation for specified
benefits. Net interest is calculated using a return rate for
high quality corporate bonds. This could be less than
the rate currently used to calculate expected return over
plan assets, leading to lower profits during the fiscal year.
These amendments are applicable to annual periods
starting on or after 1 January 2013 and early application
is allowed. Retrospective application is required with certain exceptions, which must be disclosed in that event.
IAS 28
“Investments in associates and joint ventures”
Issued in May 2011, IAS 28 Investments in associates and
joint ventures determines accounting requirements for
investments in associates and establishes requirements
for application of the interest method when accounting
for investments in associates and joint ventures, which
must be disclosed in that event..
IFRIC 20
“Stripping costs in the production phase of a surface
mine”
Issued in October 2011, this standard regulates stripping
costs in the production phase of a mine as an asset, as
well as initial and subsequent measurement of this asset.
In addition, the interpretation requires mining entities
that present financial statements in accordance with
IFRS to punish existing stripping costs assets against accumulated profits when these cannot be attributed to
an identifiable component of a deposit, which must be
disclosed in that event.
IFRS 7
“Financial instruments: disclosures”
An amendment to IFRS 7 was issued in December 2011.
This amendment requires entities to disclose the effects
or possible effects of financial instrument compensation
agreements on the entity’s financial position in financial information. This standard is applicable starting 1
January 2013, which must be disclosed in that event.
IFRS 1
“First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards”
Issued in March 2012. This provides an exception with
retroactive application to the recognition and measurement of loans received from the Government at the
transaction date. Early adoption is allowed, which must
be disclosed in that event.
IAS 1
Presentation of financial statements
“Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle”, issued in May
2012, amended paragraphs 10, 38 and 41, eliminated
paragraphs 39-40 and added paragraphs 38A-38D and
40A-40D, which clarify the difference between voluntary
additional comparative information and the minimum
comparative information required. The minimum comparative period generally required is the former period.
An entity is required to include comparative information in notes related to the financial statements when
this entity voluntarily provides comparative information
beyond the minimum comparative period required. The
additional comparative period does not need to contain
a complete set of financial statements. In addition, initial balance sheet amounts (known as the third balance)
must be presented under the following circumstances:
when an entity changes its accounting policies; makes
retroactive restatements or reclassifications, and this is
the change that exerts a material effect on the balance
sheets. The initial amount stated in the balance sheets
would be at the start of the former period. However, in
contrast with voluntary comparative information, related
notes do not have to be included in the third balance.
Entities will be required to apply this amendment retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies,
Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors for annual
periods starting 1 January 2013. Early application is
allowed, which must be disclosed in that event.

Inversiones internacionales D&S limitada and subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
IAS 16
“Property, plant and equipment”
“Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle”, issued in May
2012, amended paragraph 8. This amendment clarifies
that replacement parts and auxiliary equipment that
comply with the definition of property, plant and equipment are not inventory. Entities will be required to apply
this amendment retrospectively in accordance with IAS
8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates
and Errors for annual periods starting 1 January 2013.
Early application is allowed, which must be disclosed in
that event.
IAS 34
“Interim financial information”
“Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle”, issued in May
2012, amended paragraph 16A. This amendment clarifies requirements in IAS 34 related to information held by
operating segments regarding total assets and liabilities
for each of the operating segments in order to improve
coherence with the requirements of IFRS 8 Operating
Segments. The amended paragraph 16A establishes
that the total assets and liabilities for a specific operating
segment shall only be disclosed when the amounts are
regularly measured by senior management and when
there is a material change in how information disclosed
in the former financial statements is compared for this
operating segment. Entities will be required to apply this
amendment retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and
Errors for annual periods starting 1 January 2013. Early
application is allowed, which must be disclosed in that
event.
IAS 32
“Financial instruments: presentation”
“Annual Improvements 2009-2011 Cycle”, issued in May
2012, amended paragraphs 35, 37 and 39 and added paragraph 35A, indicating that tax for income shared with
an entity’s shareholders is to be accounted for in accordance with IAS 12 Income taxes. This amendment eliminated the existing income tax requirements in IAS 32
and requires entities to apply IAS 12 requirements to any
tax for income distributed to an entity’s shareholders.
An entity will apply these amendments retrospectively
in accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes
in Accounting Estimates and Errors for annual periods
starting as of 1 January 2013. Early application is allowed,
which must be disclosed in that event.
Amendments to IAS 32 issued in December 2011 are

IFRS 10
“Consolidated Financial Statements”, IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities”, IAS 27 “Separate Financial Statements”
Amendments made to IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial
Statements, IFRS 12 Disclosure of Participation in Other
Entities and IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements stem
from the Exposure Draft on Investment Entities published in August 2011. These amendments define investment entities and introduce an exception for consolidating certain subsidiaries belonging to investment
entities. These amendments require investment entities
to assess these subsidiaries at fair value with changes
made to income statements in accordance with IFRS 9
Financial Instruments in their separate consolidated financial statements. These amendments also introduce
new disclosure requirements regarding investment entities in IFRS 12 and in IAS 27. Entities are required to apply
amendments to annual periods starting 1 January 2014,
which is to be disclosed in this case. Early application is
allowed.
IFRS 9
“Financial Instruments”
This standard introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets, allowing
early application. It requires all financial assets to be fully
classified based on the entity’s business model for managing financial assets and contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets. Financial assets under this standard are measured at either amortized cost or fair value.
Only financial assets classified as having been measured
at amortized cost shall be tested for depreciation. Their
application is effective for annual periods starting on or
after 1 January 2015, which is to be disclosed in this case.
Early adoption is allowed.
3. Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies established hereinafter have
been consistently applied to the consolidated financial
statements and have been consistently applied to all of
the group’s companies.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
3.1 Basis of consolidation
3.1.1 Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are defined as all entities that the Walmart
Chile Group controls. When determining whether the
company controls another entity, the existence and
effect of potential voting rights that are actually exercisable or convertible are taken into consideration. Subsidiaries are consolidated as of the date when control is
transferred and they are excluded from consolidation at
the time such control terminates.
The acquisition method is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries. Acquisition cost is the reasonable
value of assets delivered, equity instruments issued and
liabilities incurred or assumed the date of the transaction.
Identifiable assets acquired and the identifiable liabilities
and contingencies assumed in a business merger are initially valued at their fair value at the date of acquisition,
regardless the extent of minority interests. Acquisition
cost in excess of the company’s fair value in the share of
identifiable net assets required is recognized as purchased goodwill. If the acquisition cost is lower than the fair
value of the acquired subsidiary’s net assets, the difference is directly recognized in the income statement.
Consolidation eliminates inter-company transaction
balances, as well as unrealized expenses and income
for transactions between consolidated entities. Losses
stemming from a transaction between consolidated entities are also eliminated, unless the transaction provides
evidence of loss due to depreciation of the transferred
asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries are modified
when necessary in order to ensure uniformity with policies adopted by Walmart Chile Group.
The Corporation does not own any special purpose entities.
Direct, first-line subsidiaries included in the consolidation and related companies from the different business segments
are listed as follows:

All of the entities controlled by the company have been
included in this consolidation.
No changes have occurred in the consolidation perimeter between 1 January 2012 and 31 December 2012.
3.1.2 Transactions and uncontrolled interests
The Walmart Chile Group applies the policy of treating
transactions with uncontrolled interests as if these were
transactions with Group shareholders. In the case of
purchasing non-controlling interests, the difference between any compensation paid and the corresponding
share in the book value of net assets purchased from the
subsidiary are recognized in equity. Income and losses
due to write-offs that benefit the minority share are also
recognized in equity, as long as control is maintained.

3.3 Transactions in foreign currency
Transactions in foreign currency are expressed at the
exchange rate on the transaction date. Monetary assets
and liabilities in foreign currencies at the balance date
are expressed in Chilean pesos at the exchange rate on
that date. Exchange rate differences arising from currency translation are recognized in the income statements
by function. Non-monetary assets and liabilities measured at historical cost on the basis of foreign currency are
translated using the exchange rate on the transaction
date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies and valued at their fair value are translated to
Chilean pesos at the exchange rate at which said fair value was determined.
The financial statements of “Inmobiliaria D&S Perú S.A.C”,
“Comercial D&S Perú S.A.C” and “South Pacific Trade Ltda.”
whose functional currency is the Peruvian nuevo sol
(PEN) and the US dollar (US$), respectively, are converted
into presentation currency as follows:
ʭʭ
The assets and liabilities of each financial statement
presented are converted at the exchange rate at the
closure of each period or fiscal year;
ʭʭ
Income and expenses for each income account are
converted at average exchange rates (unless the average is not a reasonable approximation of the accumulative effect of exchange rates as of the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are
converted on the transaction dates); and
ʭʭ
All resulting exchange rate differences are recognized as a separate component of net equity, in the
“Other reserves” line item.
3.4 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost and
presented net of their accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment, except for land, which is not
subject to depreciation.
This cost includes the acquisition price and all costs directly related to the location of the asset at the place
and the conditions necessary so that it can operate as
planned by the Management, if this exists, as well as the
initial estimate of the costs of dismantling, removing or
partially removing the asset, as well as remediation of
the place where it is located, for which the Corporation
is responsible.
Any profit or loss arising from this asset being written off
(calculated as the difference between the net value of
disposal and the asset’s book value) is included in the
income statements by function in the fiscal year in which
the asset is written off.
Depreciation is calculated over the depreciable amount,
which corresponds to the cost of an asset or another
amount that substitutes for the cost, minus its residual
value.
Depreciation is recognized in income statements in a linear fashion over the estimated useful lives of each part
of a property, plant or equipment item, since these more
accurately represent the exception consumption pattern
of future economic benefits related to the asset. Assets
leased under financial lease contracts are depreciated
over the shortest period between the lease and their
useful lives, unless it is reasonably certain that the Group
will acquire the property at the end of the lease period.
When parts of a property, plant and equipment item
have different useful lives, these are recorded as separate
property, plant and equipment items (important components).
Estimated useful lives for the current and comparative
periods are listed as follows :
ʭʭ
Buildings
:
50 years
ʭʭ
Terminations
:
15 years
ʭʭ
Installations
:
15 to 20 years
ʭʭ
Equipment at properties
:
15 to 20 years
ʭʭ
Exterior works
:
20 years
ʭʭ
Vehicles
:
4 years
ʭʭ
Machinery
:
4 to 5 years
ʭʭ
Furniture and office supplies :
3 to 4 years
Methods used to determine depreciation, useful lives
and residual values are revised in each fiscal year and
prospectively adjusted if necessary.
When the value of an asset is higher than its estimated
recoverable amount, its value immediately declines to its
recoverable value through the application of depreciation tests.
Losses and gains from property, plant and equipment
sales are calculated by comparing income obtained to
the book value and are then included in the income statements by function.
Inversiones internacionales D&S limitada and subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
3.5 Impairment of non-financial assets
Assets with an indefinite useful life are not subject to
amortization and are subjected to impairment testing
on an annual basis. Assets subject to depreciation or
amortization are subjected to impairment testing when
some event or change in circumstances indicates that
the book value may not be recoverable.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating
unit is the greater value between its value in use and its
fair value, minus sale costs. In order to determine value
in use, future estimated cash flows are deducted from
its present value using a discount rate before tax that reflects current market assessment over the temporary value of money and the specific risks an asset may have. In
order to assess depreciation, assets that cannot be individually tested are grouped together in the smallest asset
group that generates cash inflows from continued use,
which are independent of cash inflows from other assets
or asset groups (the “cash generating unit”). Depending
on the date when an operating segment’s value is tested for the purpose of goodwill impairment testing, the
cash-generating units that have been assigned goodwill
are added together so that the level impairment is tested
at reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes.
The Group’s corporate assets do not generate separate
cash inflows. If there is any indication that a corporate
asset may be impaired, the recoverable amount is determined and assigned for the cash-generating unit the
corporate asset belongs to.
Impairment is recognized if the book value of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable
amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the income statements.
Impairment losses recognized in relation to cash-generating units are assigned first, in order to reduce the book
value of any goodwill assigned to the units and then to
reduce the book value of other assets in the unit (group
of units) on a pro rata basis.
Impairment loss for goodwill is not reverted. With regard to other assets, impairment losses recognized in
previous periods are evaluated at least once per year in
pursuit of any indication that the loss has been reduced
or has disappeared. An impairment loss is reverted if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is only
reverted to the extent that the book value of the asset
does not exceed the book value that would have been
determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if the
impairment loss had not been recognized.
Goodwill that is part of the book value of an investment
in a related company is not recognized separately and
is consequently not subjected to separate impairment
tests. Instead, the total amount invested in a subsidiary
is tested for impairment as a unique asset when there is
objective evidence that the investment may be impaired.
3.6 Categories of non-derivative financial instruments
The Walmart Chile Group classifies its financial assets in
the following categories: at fair value through profit or
loss, loans and accounts receivable, and available for sale.
Classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines
the classification of its financial assets at the time of initial
recognition.
3.6.1 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for negotiation or designated as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss when
initially recognized.
A financial asset is classified in this category if it is acquired mainly for the purpose of selling the asset in the
short term.
Assets in this category are classified as current assets.
3.6.2 Loans and accounts receivable
Loans and accounts receivable are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or ascertainable payments that are
not quoted on the active market.
Assets in this category are classified as current, except for
those with maturities longer than 12 months from the
date that the balance sheets were issued, which are classified as non-current assets.
Loans and accounts receivable include trade and other
accounts receivable and receivable rights.
3.6.3 Recognition and measurement of financial assets
Acquisition and disposal of financial assets are recognized at the negotiation date, which is to say the date
when the Walmart Chile Group commits to acquire or
sell the asset.
Financial assets are initially recognized at their fair value
plus transaction costs, for all financial assets not charged
at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs in-
201
Inversiones internacionales D&S limitada and subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
clude fees and commissions paid to agents (including
employees who act as sales agents), consultants and
intermediaries, rates established by regulatory agencies
and stock exchanges, as well as taxes and other duties to
which the transaction is subject. Transaction costs do not
include premiums or discounts for debt, financial costs,
maintenance costs or internal administrative costs.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at their fair value and transaction costs
are changed to income.
Financial assets are written off for accounting purposes
when the rights to receive cash flows from investments
have expired or have been transferred and the Walmart
Chile Group has substantially transferred all risk and benefits of ownership.
Loans and accounts receivable are recorded at their
amortized cost according to the effective interest rate
method.
The effective interest rate method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or liability
(or a group of financial assets or liabilities) and charged
to financial income or expense throughout the relevant
period. The effective interest rate is a discount rate that
ensures that the estimated cash flows to be received or
paid over the expected lifetime of the financial instrument (or, when appropriate, over a shorter period) are
the same as the net book amount of the financial asset
or liability. In order to calculate the effective interest rate,
an entity will estimate cash flows considering all contractual conditions for the financial instrument.
Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value
of financial assets to fair value through profit or loss are
included in the income statements by function for the
fiscal period in which these changes in fair value are generated.
Dividend income from financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss and available for sale are recognized in the income statements by function in the other
income line item once the Walmart Chile Group’s right to
receive dividend payments has been established..
3.7 Depreciation of financial assets
A financial asset that is not recorded at fair value through
profit or loss is assessed at each balance date to determine if there is objective evidence of impairment. A financial asset is impaired if there is objective evidence that
a loss event has occurred after initial recognition of the
asset and that this loss event has had a negative effect
on future cash flows of the asset that can be reliably calculated.
An impairment loss related to a financial asset valued at
amortized cost is calculated as the difference between
the asset’s book value and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest
rate. Losses are recognized in the income statements
and are reflected in a provision account against accounts
receivable (see chart on impairment of trade and other
accounts receivable and unpaid with impairment, in the
note on Trade and the other accounts receivable item).
Interest on the impaired asset will continue to be recognized through reversal of the effective rate. When a
subsequent event causes a reduction in the loss amount,
this reduction is reversed in the income statements.
3.8 Trade and other accounts receivable
Trade and other accounts receivable are initially recognized at their fair value (a nominal value that includes implicit interest) and subsequently at their amortized cost
according to the effective interest rate method, minus
any reduction for value impairment.
An estimate is established for impairment losses of trade receivables when there is objective evidence that the
company will not be able to collect all amounts owed
in accordance with the original terms of the accounts
receivable. Some indicators of possible impairment of
accounts receivable are debtors› financial difficulties, the
likelihood of the debtor entering into bankruptcy or financial reorganization and non-compliance or failure to
make payment, as well as experience regarding the behavior and characteristics of the overall portfolio.
In order to assess and record impairment, the portfolio is
segmented by type of debtor and credit up to the levels
considered appropriate. Trade receivables presently include only operations that can be classified as consumption and therefore information about these receivables
only refers to this concept.
Impairment estimates are based on a loss approach that
aims to capture objective evidence of the impairment of
operations, which enables the company to predict which
future flows will not be received as agreed. Payment expectations are also considered in terms of the amount
and timing and the valuation of such losses based on the
difference between contractual flows and flows adjusted
for impairment. The latter are updated at the effective
loan interest rate. The amount associated to impairment
estimation is presented net of trade and other accounts
payable and its effect on income is recognized by recording it as part of administrative expenses.
Inversiones internacionales D&S limitada and subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
3.9 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash balances, bank
and other investments in fixed income mutual fund
shares in Chilean pesos that mature in less than three
months and present low risk of any change in value. Any
existing overdrafts are classified in the balance sheets as
loans in current liabilities at amortized cost.
3.10 Share capital
Share capital is represented by contributions paid.
3.11 Trade and other accounts payable
Trade and other accounts payable are recognized at
amortized cost, which is not different from their nominal
value, since average payment time is reduced.
3.12 Income taxes and deferred income taxes
Income taxes recorded in the income statement by
function for the first year includes current and deferred
income taxes.
Income taxes are directly recognized in the income statement by function except for those related to items that
are directly recognized in equity.
Current income tax is tax expected to be paid for the
year, calculated using rates in effect at the date of the
balance sheet and also includes any adjustment to tax to
be paid for previous years.
Deferred income tax is calculated considering differences between the book value of assets and liabilities reported for financial purposes and the amounts used for
tax purposes.
Deferred taxes are valued at tax rates expected to be
applied when the temporary differences are reversed,
based on laws that have been approved or are about to
be approved as of the balance sheet date. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are presented in net form if there is
an enforceable legal right to adjust current tax liabilities
and assets for current taxes, and these are related to the
income tax applied by the same tax authority to the
same taxpaying entity, or to different taxpaying entities,
but the current tax liabilities and assets are to be settled
in net form, or its tax assets and liabilities will be realized
at the same time.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that there will likely be future taxable profits against which these
assets could be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reduced
to the extent that the related benefit will not likely be
obtained.
The Corporation does not record deferred taxes for temporary differences arising between investments in subsidiaries and related companies, since the date when
these will revert is monitored and these are not likely to
revert in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and temporary deductible differences
to the extent that future taxable gains will likely exist
against which these can be used. Deferred tax assets are
reviewed at each balance sheet date and are reduced
when it is not likely that the related tax benefits will be
obtained.
3.13 Revenue from ordinary activities
Ordinary revenue includes the fair value of the considerations received or to be received for the sale of goods
and services in the ordinary course of the Corporation’s
activities. Ordinary revenue is presented net of sales tax,
returns and discounts.
The Corporation recognizes revenue when the amount
of the same can be reliably calculated, when future
economic benefits are likely to be received by the entity and the specific conditions are met for each of
the Corporation’s activities. Accurate valuation of the
amount of revenue is not considered possible until all
contingencies related to the sale of the good or service
provision have been settled.
Revenue from the sale of merchandise is recognized in
the income statement when the significant risks and benefits of ownership of goods are transferred to the buyer.
Revenue is not recognized if there is significant uncertainty regarding collection, associated costs, possible return of goods or continued administrative involvement
in this revenue.
3.14 Cost of sales
Cost of sales includes the cost of purchasing products
sold and other costs incurred in order to make stock
available at locations and in conditions required for sale.
These costs mainly include net purchasing costs for discounts obtained, non-recoverable warehousing costs
and taxes, and insurance.
3.15 Financial information by operating segment
An operating segment is a component of the Group that
participates in business activities in which it may obtain
income or incur expenses, including income and expenses related to transactions with other components of the
Group.
203
Inversiones internacionales D&S limitada and subsidiaries
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For fiscal years ending 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011
Information by segment is presented consistently with
internal reports provided to those responsible for making relevant operating decisions. These executives are
responsible for assigning resources and evaluating the
performance of operating segments, as indicated in IFRS
8 “Operating segments”, which has been identified as Retail.
3.16 Financial income and financial costs
Financial income is comprised of interest income from
invested funds (including available-for-sale financial assets), dividend income, gains from the sale of availablefor-sale financial assets, changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and gains
from hedging instruments that are recorded in income.
Interest income is recognized in the income statement at
amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.
Dividend income is recognized in the income statement
at the date when the Group’s right to receive payments
is established.
Financial costs are composed of interest expenses for
loans or financing, changes in fair value of financial assets to fair value through profit or loss and impairment
loses recognized in financial assets. Loan costs that are
not directly attributable to the acquisition, construction
or production of a qualified asset are recognized in income using the effective interest rate method.
3.17 Environment
Disbursements related to environmental protection are
recorded against income as they are made.
3.18 Contingent assets and liabilities
Contingent assets are possible assets arising from past
events whose existence will be only be confirmed if one
or more uncertain events take place in the future and
if these events are not entirely under the Corporation’s
control.
Contingent liabilities are possible obligations arising
from past events whose existence will only be confirmed
if one or more uncertain events occur and if these events
are not entirely under the Corporation’s control.
As of 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011, the
Corporation does not have any recorded contingent assets or liabilities.

Accumulated ordinary revenue as of 31 December 2012
came to CLP 2,892,802 million, up 11.1% compared to
CLP 2,604,483 million for the same period the year before. This increase is mainly due to increased same store sales and to the opening of 28 new stores between
January and December 2012.
Gross income
Gross income came to CLP 790,108 million as of 31 December 2012, up 11.2% compared to the same period in
2011. This was due to increased ordinary revenue.
Administrative expenses
Accumulated administrative expenses as of December
2012 came to CLP 555,067 million, up 9.4% compared
to CLP 507,191 million for the same period in 2011. This
increase is related to increased sales reported by the
company. Administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenue went from 19.5% between January and December 2011 down to 19.2% in the same period of 2012, 29
basis points lower due to improved expense efficiency.
Net financial expenses
Accumulated net financial expenses as of 31 December
2012, understood as financial expenses plus financial in-
come, came to CLP 24,534 million, up 32.7% compared
to CLP 18,481 million in the same period in 2011. This
was mainly due to increased use of credit lines because
of an exchange rate hedging strategy and more investment in financial instruments.
Profit
Accumulated profit as of 31 December 2012 came to
CLP 115,638 million, up from CLP 113,905 million in the
same period of 2011. The difference in profit over this
period compared to the same period last year is mainly
due to increased same store sales, more efficient expense structure and the effect of other revenue by function
stemming from extraordinary profit reported in 2011.
Extraordinary profit amounting to CLP 18,341 million
from the sale of the Corporation’s stake in the Alvi S.A
wholesale supermarket corporation and to CLP 10,726
million from the purchase of the remaining 50% in order
to complete a 100% stake in the corporations Alimentos
y Servicios S.A. and Inversiones Solpacific S.A. was reported.
After subtracting extraordinary profit, the company reported profit amounting to CLP 84,837 million in 2011,
up 36.3% compared to 2012.
EBITDA
Accumulated EBITDA as of 31 December 2012 amounted to CLP 245,296 million, up 11.7% compared to CLP
207

219,667 over the same period in 2011. This was due to
more efficient expenses and higher sales. EBITDA as a
percentage of revenue came to 8.4% between January
and December 2011, and to 8.5% for the same period
in 2012. If we subtract the aforementioned extraordinary
profit in 2011 as a percentage of revenue for 2011, this
comes to 7.3%, which increased to 28.7% in December
2012.

Assets
As of 31 December 2012, the Company had assets
amounting to CLP 2,117,319 million, up 7.2% compared
to CLP 1,974,767 million as of December 2011. This was
due to a 7.7% increase in current assets and a 7.0% increase in non-current assets. This growth in current assets is because inventory was up 12.9% due to increased
recurring business activities recurrent business activities
and to commercial debtors and other accounts receivable up by 6.9%, mainly from retail debtors due to retroactive collection from suppliers and from other debtors. In
addition, increased non-current assets were affected by
property, plant and equipment up by 10.1% because of
the company’s investment plan. This was offset by noncurrent accounts receivable down 18.2%, due to less
commercial debtors in the Presto customer portfolio,
mainly due to more restrictive loan approval policies and
improved collection management.
Liabilities
Total liabilities as of 31 December 2012 came to CLP
1,396,378 million, up 4.6% compared to CLP 1,334,441
million as of December 2011. This is fundamentally due
to current liabilities up 36.7%, which in turn was influenced by other current financial liabilities up 189.1% and by
the increased use of credit lines and the transfer of part
of the long-term debt to the short term. Non-current liabilities as of 31 December 2012 were down 28.4% compared to the end of 2011, mainly due to a 60.4% reduction in non-current financial debt because part of the
long-term debt was transferred to the short term.
Total financial debt was up 9.9% compared to 31 December 2011, mainly due to the increased use of lines of credit as part of the exchange rate hedging strategy.
Financing Activities

signing a long-term syndicated loan with Banco Santander, BancoEstado, BBVA and Citibank N.A. 28 September

Reasoned Analysis of the Financial Statements
Fourth Quarter 2012 Results
The Corporation generated a net cash increase before
the exchange rate effect of CLP 1,313 million, which is
broken down as follows: operating activities generated
a net positive flow of CLP 219,035 million due to increased operating flow stemming from the Retail (Supermarkets) and Real Estate segments because of higher
revenue and improved expense efficiency, which was
partially offset by reduced cash flow from the Financial
Services and Corporate segments.
Investment activities generated a net negative flow of
CLP 180,077 million, which is basically due to disbursements related to the opening of new stores as part of
the investment plan. CLP 150,712 million of this total corresponds to the Retail segment and CLP 29,109 million
corresponds to the Real Estate segment.
Financing activities produced a net negative flow of CLP
37,694 million, mainly due to the payment of loans in
2012 by the Walmart Chile Corporate segment.

Debt ratio
Financial debt over EBITDA
The financial debt to equity ratio fell from 0.73 in December 2011 to 0.71 in December 2012 as a result of higher
financial debt and equity, which was due to higher accumulated income.
The financial debt over EBITDA ratio dropped from 2.13
in December 2011 to 2.11 in December 2012. This was
due to increased financial debt and EBITDA.
Liquidity ratio
The liquidity ratio (current assets over current liabilities)
came to 0.73 as of 31 December 2012, down from 0.92
as of 31 December 2011. This reduction was due to the
transfer of long-term debts to short-term debts..
Acid test ratio
The acid test ratio is a liquidity indicator that is stricter than the current ratio, since it does not consider inventories among
current assets. This ratio went from 0.6 as of 31 December 2011 down to 0.46 as of 31 December 2012, mainly due to the
transfer of long-term debts to short-term debts.

Inventory turnover
Average collection period
Inventory turnover came to an average 40.12 days as
of December 2012, up from 38.18 days as of December
2011. This variation is mainly due to increased inventory
attributed to incorporation of a new distribution center
and the opening of new stores in 2012.
The average collection period came to 46.00 days as of
December 2012, down from 48.27 days for the same period in 2011. This was due to restructuring of the Financial Services portfolio.
Average payment period
The average payment period as of December 2012 came to 51.53 days, up from 44.9 days over the same period in 2011.
This was due to delayed payment because of the financial integration period executed starting in January 2012.

6. Market risk analysis
The Corporation’s investments in securities traded on the
market involve a certain degree of risk. Our company’s
investment managers must carefully consider the following risk factors and other information included in
this complementary information, as well as examine the
annual reports of the company and/or any additional reported information.
The Corporation is exposed to different market variations,
including interest rate and exchange rate variations.
Interest rate risk
The Corporation’s interest rate risk stems from its debt
with third parties, which include letters of credit and
overdraft lines of credit. The variable rate debt exposes
the Corporation to cash flow interest rate risk. Debt at a
fixed interest rate exposes the Corporation to fair value
interest rate risk.
In this sense, the Corporation is exposed to little risk associated to fluctuating interest rates in the market, since
an important percentage of its debt is structured at fixed
rates, either directly or through derivative contracts.
Following a sensitivity analysis regarding the portion of
debt that currently has a net variable rate for coverage,
the effect on income under a scenario in which rates increase by 5% compared to the current rates and the rest
of the variables remain constant would be losses before
tax amounting to CLP 696,450,000 as of 31 December
2012.
The Corporation has taken out a Cross Currency Swap,
which is used to transform debt in Chilean pesos into
unidades de fomento and variable rate into fixed rate.
Exchange rate risk
Exchange rate risk is the risk that market price variations
due to foreign currency fluctuations may affect Group
income or the value of its financial instruments. The objective of exchange rate risk management is to manage
and control exposure to changes in the market due to
this concept within reasonable parameters while concurrently optimizing profitability.
The functional currency used by the Group is the Chilean peso when it comes to setting prices for its services,
balance sheet composition and effects on operating income.
The Corporation did not have any accounts receivable in
foreign currency as of 31 December 2012.
62% of the Corporation’s financial debt is in Unidades de
Fomento, 29% is in Chilean pesos and 9% is in US dollars.
As of 31 December 2012, the Corporation has a financial
debt balance in foreign currency amounting to US$ 89.6
million.
As of 31 December 2012, the observed US dollar exchange rate came to CLP 479.96, down 8% compared to the
closing value of CLP 519.20 as of 31 December 2011.
Considering the aforementioned values, a sensitivity
analysis was conducted in order to determine the effect
of exchange rate variation on the Corporation’s income,
considering the amount not covered by the natural hedge between assets and liabilities in foreign currency. This
was sensitized considering ±10% variations in the observed US dollar exchange rate as of 31 December 2012.
This sensitization meant that the effect on the
Corporation›s income before taxes could have increased
(decreased) by CLP 29,849,000 during the fiscal year.
As of 31 December 2012, the Corporation held financial
assets in foreign currency amounting to US$ 40.4 million.
Availability of capital for future expansion
The Corporation’s management cannot be absolutely
sure that the Corporation will generate sufficient cash
flow from its operations or obtain external sources of
financing that are sufficient to finance the investments
needed for future expansion. The Corporation’s ability to
access financial markets to obtain the capital needed to
finance its operations and necessary capital expansions
will depend to a large degree on market conditions, over
which the Corporation has no control.
