20. Outlook
Given the current economic situation and the continued disruption in the credit
markets, visibility on overall growth in the industry is limited.
Despite these factors, we are optimistic that government actions including the
additional R$3 billion in FGTS funds designated for financing within the construction
industry, the stimulus program aimed at building one million houses by 2010, and the
lowering of the Selic interest rate by the Central Bank will result in the increased
availability of funds to support the growth of homebuilding.
However, without all of the elements currently in place, we are not providing guidance
in the short term.
In 2009, we will continue to be very selective with our launches, conserve cash and
increase our sales efforts towards our inventory.

21. Statement
We make forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These statements are
based on the beliefs and assumptions of our management, and on information currently available to us.
Forward-looking statements include statements regarding our intent, belief or current expectations or that
of our directors or executive officers.
Forward-looking statements also include information concerning our possible or assumed future results of
operations, as well as statements preceded by, followed by, or that include the words ''believes,'' ''may,''
''will,'' ''continues,'' ''expects,'‘ ''anticipates,'' ''intends,'' ''plans,'' ''estimates'' or similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and
assumptions because they relate to future events and therefore depend on circumstances that may or may
not occur. Our future results and shareholder values may differ materially from those expressed in or
suggested by these forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine these results and
values are beyond our ability to control or predict.
