16. SEGMENTAL INFORMATION

On 16 April 2008, was signed the Altri SGPS, S.A. spin-off public deed. Under the terms of that project, the planned reorganization implies the split of Altri's two business units that manage equity holdings in the pulp and paper sector and in the steel and storage systems sector. This reorganization aimed a bigger focus and transparency on ALTRI's business, and giving each of the areas an opportunity to be better seen and better evaluated by the market. This allows for the Altri Group to focus its activity on its core business, production and commercialization of bleached paper pulp from eucalyptus, so the Board of Directors believes that there is only one business segment and the management information is reported and analysed on this basis.

17. RELATED PARTIES

The subsidiary companies of the Group have between each other transactions that classify as transactions with related parties and which are made at market prices.

In the consolidation procedures the transactions between the companies included in consolidation by the full consolidation method are eliminated, once the consolidated financial statements present the owner and its subsidiaries information as one single company, therefore they are not disclosed in this note.
