Basis of Presentation

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations together with the attached audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2011. The audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2011 and  2010 and the accompanying notes have been presented in U.S. dollars and prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). As a wholly-owed subsidiary of Petrobras, we also prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting policies adopted in Brazil.

We discontinued United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP) and adopted IFRS, as issued by the IASB, as the basis to prepare and disclose its financial statements for Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings purposes for the year ending December 31, 2011, as previously mentioned in its Form 20-F of 2010, filed on May 25, 2011. Our balance information originally disclosed in U.S. GAAP were adjusted and are being presented in accordance with international accounting standards (IFRS). See Note 1 in our consolidated financial statements for December 31, 2011.

Overview

We are a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petrobras. Accordingly, our financial condition and results of operations are significantly affected by decisions of our parent company. Our ability to meet our outstanding debt obligations depends on a number of factors, including:

·Petrobras’ financial condition and results of operations;

·Petrobras’ willingness to continue to make loans to us and provide us with other types of financial support;

·our ability to access financing sources, including the international capital markets and third-party credit facilities; and

·our ability to transfer our financing costs to Petrobras.

We earn income from:

·inter-company loans to subsidiaries of Petrobras;

·investments in marketable securities; and

·other financial instruments.

Our operating expenses include:

·financial expenses, mainly from interest on our lines of credit and capital markets indebtedness; and

·general and administrative expenses.

We have in the past engaged in both commercial operations and in financing activities for Petrobras. We ceased such commercial operations altogether to become a finance subsidiary functioning as a vehicle for Petrobras to raise funds for Petrobras through the issuance of debt securities in the international capital markets, among other means.

As part of our transition into a finance subsidiary of Petrobras, on August 12, 2011, we transferred to Petrobras International Braspetro B.V – PIB B.V., also a subsidiary of Petrobras, two of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Petrobras Europe Limited (PEL), a United Kingdom company that acts as an agent and advisor in connection with Petrobras’ activities in Europe, the Middle East, the Far East and Africa and Petrobras Singapore Private Limited (PSPL), a company incorporated in Singapore to trade crude oil and oil products in connection with our trading activities in Asia.

Since we have ceased our commercial operations and have sold to PIB B.V. two of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, PEL and PSPL, we have accounted for these operations as discontinued operations under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), issued by the International Accounting Board (IASB). Our balance and results of commercial operations and PEL and PSPL, and their respective cash flows have been removed from the company’s results of continuing operations and cash flows for all years presented in this report. See Note 13 in our consolidated financial statements for December 31, 2011.

In addition, on September 1, 2011, we terminated the financing program carried out by our subsidiary Petrobras Finance Limited (PFL), a Cayman Islands company that carries out a financing program supported by future sales of fuel oil. We expect to continue our insurance-related activities through our wholly-owned subsidiary Bear Insurance Company (BEAR), a Bermuda company that contracts insurance for Petrobras and its subsidiaries. Petrobras will continue to support our debt obligations through unconditional and irrevocable guarantees of payment.

Results of Operations for Year Ended December 31, 2011, Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2010

 Loss 

We had a loss of U.S.$376 million in 2011 compared to a loss of U.S.$261 million in 2010.

Financial Income

Our financial income consists of interest we receive from the inter-company loans to subsidiaries of Petrobras, investments in marketable securities and other financial instruments. Our financial income was U.S.$633 million in 2011 compared to U.S.$311 million in 2010. This increase was primarily due to higher financial income from loans to related parties due to a substantial increase in the aggregate amount of funds lent to subsidiaries of Petrobras as a result of our becoming a finance company.

Financial Expenses

Our financial expenses consist of interest paid and accrued on our outstanding indebtedness, other fees associated with our issuance of debt and other financial. Our financial expenses increased 16.4% to U.S.$1,202 million in 2011 compared to U.S.$1,033 million in 2010. This increase was primarily due to higher interest expenses relating to recent issuances of notes, including our issuance of U.S.$6.0 billion in Global notes in January 2011 and € 1.85 billion and £ 700 million in December 2011.

2

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of cost sharing with Petrobras. These expenses increased 38.5% to U.S.$18 million in 2011 compared to U.S.$13 million in 2010.

Net Income from discontinuing operations

Our commercial operations and two of our wholly-owned subsidiaries PEL and PSPL sold to PIB B.V. were accounted as discontinued operation in accordance with IFRS, issued by the IASB, and therefore, our results of commercial operations and PEL and PSPL, and their respective cash flows have been removed from the company’s results of continuing operations and cash flows for all years presented in this report.

Our net income from discontinuing operations was U.S.$119 million in 2011 compared to U.S.$476 million in 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We engage in borrowings in international capital markets unconditionally guaranteed by Petrobras as part of Petrobras’ strategy to expand its operations and to facilitate its access to international capital markets.Petrobras’ support of our debt obligations has been and will continue to be made through unconditional and irrevocable guarantees of payment.

As an offshore, non-Brazilian company, we are not legally obligated to receive prior approval from the Brazilian National Treasury before incurring debt or registering debt with the Central Bank. As a matter of policy, however, we only issue debt following the recommendation of any of Petrobras’ Chief Financial Officer, Executive Board or Board of Directors, depending on the aggregate principal amount and the tenor of the debt to be issued.

Sources of Funds

Our Cash Flow

At December 31, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of U.S.$4,087 million compared to U.S.$1,197 million at December 31, 2010.

Our operating activities provided net cash of U.S.$2,841 million in 2011 compared to providing net cash of U.S.$10,245 million in 2010, primarily due to the termination of our commercial operations in 2011. 

Our investing activities used net cash of U.S.$8,858 million in 2011 compared to using net cash of U.S.$1,656 million in 2010, primarily as a result of an increase in the amount of loans to related parties.

Our financing activities provided net cash of U.S.$8,907 million in 2011 compared to using net cash of U.S.$8,345 million in 2010, primarily due to the issuance of U.S.$6.0 billion in Global Notes in January 2011 and € 1.85 billion and £ 700 million in December 2011.

Notes receivable from related parties increased to U.S.$12,387 million at December 31, 2011, from U.S.$3,067 million at December 31, 2010, primarily as a result of an increase in the amount of loans to related parties due to a substantial increase in the aggregate amount of funds lent to subsidiaries of Petrobras as a result of our becoming  a finance company.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The management of Petrobras International Finance Company - PifCo  and subsidiaries (‘the Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s Audit Committee, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. Therefore even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to consolidated financial statements preparation and presentation.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on that assessment, management has concluded that as of December 31, 2011 the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective.

The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011 has been audited by KPMG Auditores Independentes, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, dated February 28, 2012, included herein.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The

Executive Board and Stockholder of

Petrobras International Finance Company

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Petrobras International Finance Company and subsidiaries (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in stockholder’s deficit and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2011. We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements, and an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall consolidated financial statements presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Petrobras International Finance Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Also in our opinion, Petrobras International Finance Company and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(In thousand of U.S. dollars, except as otherwise indicated)

1.      The Company and its Operations

Petrobras International Finance Company (“PifCo” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on September 24, 1997 and operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A.(“Petrobras”).

PifCo has in the past engaged in both commercial operations and in financing activities for Petrobras. The Company ceased such commercial operations altogether to become a finance subsidiary functioning as a vehicle for Petrobras to raise funds for Petrobras through the issuance of debt securities in the international capital markets, among other means.

As part of its transition into a finance subsidiary of Petrobras, on August 12,  2011, PifCo transferred to Petrobras International Braspetro B.V. – PIB B.V., also a subsidiary of Petrobras, two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Petrobras Europe Limited (“PEL”), a United Kingdom company that acts as an agent and advisor in connection with Petrobras’ activities in Europe, the Middle East, the Far East and Africa and Petrobras Singapore Private Limited (“PSPL”), a company incorporated in Singapore to trade crude oil and oil products in connection with trading activities in Asia.

PifCo engages in borrowings in international capital markets unconditionally guaranteed by Petrobras as part of Petrobras’ strategy to expand its operations and to facilitate its access to international capital markets. Petrobras’ support of PifCo’s debt obligations has been and will continue to be made through unconditional and irrevocable guarantees of payment.

The Company discontinued United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles(U.S. GAAP) and adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as the basis to prepare and disclose its financial statements for Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings purposes for the year ending December 31, 2011, as previously mentioned in its Form 20-F of 2010, filed on May 25, 2011.

The accounting information originally disclosed in U.S. GAAP was adjusted and is being presented in accordance with international accounting standards. There was no effect on the Stockholder’s deficit.

The following is a brief description of each of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries:  

Bear Insurance Company Limited

Bear Insurance Company Limited (“BEAR”) based in Bermuda, contracts insurance for PifCo, PSPL and Petrobras’ subsidiaries.

Petrobras Finance Limited

Petrobras Finance Limited (“PFL”), based in the Cayman Islands, in connection with the Company’s structured finance export prepayment program, whereby PFL had purchased fuel oil from Petrobras and had sold this product in the international market, including sales to designated customers, in order to generate receivables to cover the sale of future receivables debt. Certain sales were through subsidiaries of Petrobras.

2.      Basis of presentation of the financial statements

2.      Basis of presentation of the financial statements (Continued)

b) Accounting estimates

In the preparation of the financial statements it is necessary to use estimates for certain assets, liabilities and other transactions. These estimates include: provisions for contingent liabilities, market value of financial instruments and income tax. Although Management uses assumptions and judgments that are reviewed periodically, the actual results may differ from these estimates.

c)Discontinued operations

The commercial operations and the subsidiaries PEL and PSPL sold to PIB B.V. were accounted as discontinued operation in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Board (IASB). The balance and results of commercial operations and PEL and PSPL, and their respective cash flows have been removed from the company’s results of continuing operations and cash flows for all years presented in this report (see Note 13).

d)    Recognition of revenue, costs, income and expenses

Sales revenues comprise the value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of products and services, net of returns, discounts and charges on sales. Sales revenues of crude oil and oil products and other related products are recognized when title passes to the customer, because at that time the amount can be reasonably measured, collectibility is reasonably assured, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred. Title is transferred to the customers when delivery occurs pursuant to the terms of the sales contracts. Revenue from services rendered is recognized in the statement of operations when amounts and the stage of completion of the transaction can be measured reliably. The costs and expenses are recognized on the accrual basis.

The net financial results include mainly income from interest on financial investments and intercompany loans, expenses with interest on financing, gains and losses from valuation to fair value according to the classification of the security, as well as net exchange and monetary variations.

10.  Derivative Instruments, Hedging and Risk Management Activities

The Company is exposed to a series of market risks resulting from its operations. These risks mainly involve the fact that eventual variations in exchange rates or in interest rates may negatively affect the value of the company’s financial assets and liabilities or future cash flows and profits. PifCo follows the risk management of Petrobras, its parent company, the management of which is conducted by its officers, in accordance with Petrobras’ corporate risk management policy.

    10.1 Exchange risk

Exchange risk is one of the financial risks that the company is exposed to and it originates from changes in the levels or volatility of the exchange rate.

The fluctuations in the exchange rates may have a negative impact on PifCo’s financial situation and operating results.

a) Exchange risk management

The risk management is performed for the net exposure. The exchange risk management strategy may involve the use of derivative instruments to minimize the exchange exposure of certain liabilities of the Company.

10.    Derivative Instruments, Hedging and Risk Management Activities (Continued)

10.1 Exchange risk (Continued)

b) Main transactions and future commitments hedged by derivative operations

In September 2006, the Company contracted a hedge known as a cross currency swap for coverage of the bonds issued in Yen in order to fix the Company’s costs in this operation in dollars. In a cross currency swap there is an exchange of interest rates in different currencies. The exchange rate of the Yen to the U.S. dollar was fixed at the beginning of the transaction and has remained fixed since that time. The Company does not intend to settle these contracts before the end of their terms. For this relationship between the derivative and the loan, the Company adopted hedge accounting.

The Company has elected to designate its cross currency swap as cash flow hedge. Both at the inception of a hedge and on an ongoing basis, a cash flow hedge must be expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting cash flows attributable to the hedged risk during the term of the hedge. Derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges are reflected as either assets or liabilities on the Company’s statement of financial position. Change in fair value, to the extent the hedge is effective, is reported in Other Comprehensive Income until the cash flows of the hedged item occurs.

Effectiveness tests are conducted quarterly in order to measure how the changes in the fair value or the cash flow of the hedge items are being absorbed by the hedge mechanisms. The effectiveness calculation indicated that the cross currency swap is highly effective in offsetting the variation in the cash flow of the bonds issued in Yen.

The hedged item is a ¥ 35 billion 10 year issued bond, with a semi-annual coupon of 2.15% per annum. The hedging instrument is a series of cross currency swaps, whose notional amounts, underlings and maturities match the terms of the Japanese yen bond; in which U.S. dollars are paid and Japanese yen are received. 

The fair value of the derivative is calculated based on usual market practices, using the closing values of the interest rates in Yens and U.S. dollars for all the period of the agreements.

c) Results obtained with respect to the proposed objectives and parameters used for risk management

The hedge known as a cross currency swap complies with IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and IFRS 32 - Financial Instruments: Presentation.

The Company decided to qualify its cash flow cross currency swap. Upon the contracting of hedge and during its term, it is expected that the cash flow hedge will be highly effective in offsetting the cash flows attributable to the hedge risk during the term of the operation. The changes in the fair value, in the measure of the effectiveness of the hedge, tested quarterly, are stated in other comprehensive retained earnings, until the cash flow of the hedged item is realized.

 d) Notional and fair value of derivative instruments

The table below summarizes the information on the derivative contracts in force.

f) Value and type of margins given in guarantee

The existing foreign currency derivative operations do not require a guarantee margin deposit.

g) Sensitivity analysis

The following sensitivity analysis was conducted for the fair value of the foreign currency derivatives. The probable scenario is the fair value at December 31, 2011. The possible and remote scenarios consider the deterioration in the risk variable of 25% and 50%, respectively, with respect to the same date.

		December 31,
Foreign currency derivatives	Risk	Probable scenario at 2011	Possible scenario (∆ 25%)	Remote scenario (∆ 50%)
Cross Currency Swap	Depreciation of the Yen against the U.S. dollar	129,642	30,943	(34,856)

10.2 Interest rate risk

The interest rate risk that the Company is exposed to is due to its long-term debt and, to a lesser degree, its short-term debt.  If the market interest rates rise, the Company’s financial expenses will increase, which may cause a negative impact on the operating results and financial position.

10.2 Interest rate risk (Continued)

Interest rate risk management

PifCo considers that the exposure to interest rate fluctuations will not have a material impact, and so, preferably, the Company does not use derivative financial instruments to manage this type of risk.

10.3 Credit risk

PifCo is exposed to the credit risk of financial institutions, resulting from its cash management. These risks consist of the possibility of non-receipt of amounts invested, deposited or guaranteed by financial institutions.

Credit risk management objectives and strategies

PifCo follows the credit risk management of Petrobras, its parent company. The management of the risk in Petrobras is part of the management of the financial risks, which is performed by the Company’s officers, following a corporate risk management policy.

The credit risk management policy is part of the global risk management policy of the Petrobras System and aims at reconciling the need for minimizing exposure to credit risk and maximizing the result of financial operations, through an efficient process of analysis, concession and management of the credits.

10.4 Liquidity risk

PifCo uses its funds mainly for payment of debt. Historically, the conditions are met with funds generated internally, short and long-term debts. PifCo finances the working capital, assuming short term debts, normally related to the flow of its operations.

Fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, short-term debt, short-term portion of long-term debt and accounts payables approximate their carrying values. The fair values of other long-term assets and liabilities closely approximate their carrying values.

At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company’s long-term debt, was US$ 20,929,987 and US$ 12,377,262 respectively and had estimated fair values of approximately US$ 23,245,400 and US$ 14,076,200, respectively.

12.  Insurance

In accordance to its activities, PifCo has insurance coverage for cargo and third party liability. At December 31, 2010 both coverages were in place. At December 31, 2011 only the third party liability was in place. Petrobras is responsible for contracting and maintaining PifCo insurances.

The assumptions of risk adopted, given their nature, are not part of the scope of an audit of financial statements and, accordingly, they were not examined by our independent auditors.

13.  Discontinued operations

On August 12, 2011, PifCo transferred its subsidiaries Petrobras Europe Limited – PEL and Petrobras Singapore Private Limited – PSPL to Petrobras International Braspetro B.V. - PIB BV, also a subsidiary of Petrobras. These subsidiaries were sold for book value of US$ 6,196 and US$ 107,475, respectively, through intercompany loans. In addition, currently, PifCo ceased its commercial operations. PifCo entered into these series of transactions as part of a corporate restructuring in order PifCo becomes a finance subsidiary functioning as a vehicle for Petrobras to raise capital for Petrobras’ operations outside of Brazil through the issuance of debt securities in the international capital markets, among other means.

The commercial operations and the subsidiaries PEL and PSPL were accounted for as a discontinued operation whereby the results of operations and cash flows were removed from the company’s results from continuing operations for all years presented. The statement of financial position, the statements of operations and the cash flows for all years presented have been restated to reflect discontinued operations for disposal of these components.

As a result of the discontinued operations, PifCo reported a net income of US$ 119,055, US$ 476,288 and US$ 1,794,451 as of December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
