    2.22 — Assets and liabilities held for sale

     

    The Company presents assets and liabilities of entities held for sale in specific lines of the Balance Sheet, denominated Assets held for sale and Liabilities held for sale, respectively, until the closing of the sale operation, which is expected to be completed in up to one year from the date of classification as held for sale. The Company measures the net assets classified as held for sale at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. The reclassification of assets and liabilities to assets held for sale and liabilities held for sale is a non-cash transaction and it does not affect the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
