MACROECONOMIC SCENARIO AND THE CARD MARKET

Growth prospects continue to be favorable as the fundamentals behind them remain strong despite
the slowdown in the pace of Brazil’s economic expansion that, together with indications that inflation
is under control, prompted the Brazil’s Central Bank to ease monetary policy.

In its most recent Inflation Report, released on June 30, the Brazilian Central Bank increased its
growth forecast for 2010 to 7.3%. The Central Bank, which releases the report quarterly, had
maintained its growth forecast at 5.8% in the two previous reports. Market projections are in line with
those of the Central Bank, according to the August 2 Focus report, and forecast economic expansion
of 7.2% this year.

Continued unemployment rate at low levels and growing real income spur credit demand, and,
consequently, drive consumption. The unemployment rate dropped to its second lowest level in
history – 7.0% – according to the Monthly Employment Study (PME) by the Brazilian Institute of
Geography and Statistics (IBGE). The lowest rate, 6.8%, was registered in December of 2009. It is
worth noting that, due to seasonality, unemployment is generally lower in December. Real income
increased 6.7% in June over the same year-ago period, while purchasing power increased 3.4% in
the same period.

This scenario is reflected in an increase in lending. Bank loans to individuals reached a record R$ 506
billion, according to Central Bank data. The Central Bank’s most recent data, relative to June, showed
a 19.7% year-on-year credit lending growth. The increase in Brazilians’ income and in credit lending
stimulate consumer confidence. In July, the Consumer Confidence Index (ICC), measured by the
Getúlio Vargas Foundation, saw a 1.1% rise over June and was up 8.3% over July of 2009, to 120.0
points.

All these factors impact retail performance. In May, retail sales volumes expanded 10.2% over the
same period of the previous year. Nominal revenues increased 14.2%. Between January and May,
sales grew 11.5% in volume and 14.8% in revenues over the same period in 2009.

In addition to macroeconomic factors, the Brazilian card industry is also favored by the potential
growth of the use of cards in retail, both as a result of the current low penetration as well as increased
banking inclusion, which should expand the use of financial services. In 2009, only 22.5% of retail
transactions were carried out with cards, according to the Brazilian Retail Payment System Diagnostic
elaborated by the Central Bank.

The card industry is directly benefitted by the development of the Brazilian payment system. In 2Q10,
the number of cards issued increased 10.5% year-on-year and totaled 597.0 million, including private
label cards, according to data from the Brazilian Association of Credit Card and Related Services
Companies (ABECS). Of this total, 40.4% are debit cards, which increased 7.2% over 2Q09. Debit
card transactions totaled 664.2 million, with an average ticket of R$ 54.25, resulting in revenues of R$
36.0 billion. Credit cards accounted for 59.0% of total revenues, with R$ 74.5 billion, captured through
709.8 million transactions. The average credit card ticket increased 6.2% over 2Q09 and totaled R$
105.0 in 2Q10, with 145.0 million cards issued.

The card industry, specifically the acquiring segment, has entered a new competitive landscape. On
July 1, 2010, a multi-brand scenario was installed and acquirers began capturing and processing
multiple card brands. This change was the compliance with two recommendations of a working group
composed of the Central Bank, the Secretariat of Economic Law (SDE) and the Secretariat for
Economic Monitoring (SEAE) following a detailed study of the industry: the opening of the merchant
acquiring activity and interoperability of POS terminals.

As of July 1, 2010, Cielo began capturing and processing MasterCard transactions, as had been
widely communicated to the market. Other significant partnerships have also been announced. Cielo
will capture Amex transactions. Amex is the third largest international card brand, with significant
penetration in the travel and entertainment industries. Domestic brands Aura and Sorocred will also
be a part of the brand portfolio for which Cielo will be the acquirer. Cielo’s positioning in the benefit
card market (voucher) was also strengthened with the partnership announced with Ticket, initially for
the Ticket Refeição and Ticket Alimentação products. With this partnership, our offering for
restaurants and supermarkets has become even more attractive, covering two major brands in the
industry: Visa-Vale and Ticket.

Relationship with banks was another focus of Cielo’s management. In 2Q10, we announced a
partnership with HSBC in which Cielo will be the bank’s preferred acquirer for its clients. This
partnership is considered significant, as most affiliations are made through partner banks.

Cielo has been rising to the challenges of the competitive market, delivering with operating excellence
a high reliability in capturing and processing transactions of other brands, with 100% network
availability, even on peak retail dates. Cielo dynamically sought a differentiated market positioning
through partnerships with brands with the most relevance in terms of volume to guarantee a robust
product and with banks to guarantee broad distribution. The Company concentrated its efforts and the
development of innovate products continues, such as the promotional platform and the Multi POS, in
addition to its focus on cost reduction.

OPERATING PERFORMANCE – 2Q10

Transaction Financial Volume


In 2Q10, we captured 965 million transactions, up 18.4% over 2Q09 and up 4.0% over 1Q10. Transaction
financial volume totaled R$ 61.6 billion, an increase of 21.9% when compared with R$ 50.5 billion in the same
year-ago period and up 4.8% over 1Q10.

Transaction financial volume with credit cards totaled R$ 38.9 billion in 2Q10, up 21.0% year-on-year and 3.6%
quarter-on-quarter. The average ticket of credit transactions in 2Q10 was R$ 98.70, compared to R$ 105.00 of
the industry.

With debit cards, transaction financial volume processed by Cielo totaled R$ 22.7 billion in 2Q10, increasing
23.3% year-on-year and 6.8% quarter-on-quarter. The average ticket of debit transactions in 2Q10 was R$
56.50, 4.1% higher than the industry average ticket of R$ 54.30.

Geographic Coverage and Affiliated Merchants

With its nationwide presence, at the end of the quarter Cielo had Affiliated Merchants in 5,446 of 5,564 Brazilian
municipalities, representing geographic coverage of 97.9%, as compared with 97.6% at the end of 1Q10. Cielo
ended 2Q10 with a final affiliated merchant base of 1,839 million, a 4.5% increase over the previous quarter and
of 19.7% in the same period of the previous year. Even though the affiliated merchant base expansion is not
among the Company’s current strategic priorities, it continues to increase due to partnerships with affiliating
banks. Of the total 1,839 million affiliated merchants, 1,153 million are active, up 2.1% over 1Q10 and 11.0%
over 2Q09. Active affiliated merchants are the ones that have carried out at least one transaction in the last 60
days.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE – 2Q10

Operating + Net Financial Revenue of Prepayment


Cielo’s main sources of revenue are derived from the capture, transmission, processing and settlement of
transactions carried out with credit and debit cards, as well as the rentals of POS equipment and prepayment of
receivables to its customers. The graph below shows the relative importance of each of these sources:

Other revenues Prepayment of Receivables POS Rental Debit cards Credit cards

In 2Q10, net operating revenue plus net revenue from prepayment of receivables reached R$ 1,048.9 million,
increasing 21.6% year-on-year and 2.8% quarter-on-quarter.

 Revenue from credit transactions totaled R$ 562.3 million in 2Q10, up 16.8% over R$ 481.6 million in
2Q09. This increase is mainly due to the 21.0% increase in transaction volume, partially offset by the 5
basis-point reduction in the net merchant discount rate, from 150 to 145 basis points. Such reduction
was mainly due to the advance of incentives paid to acquiring banks in 2Q10. Such payment is
conditional upon the future performance of the affiliating institutions. Excluding these advances, the net
merchant discount rate would have been 148 bps. Comparing with 1Q10, revenue from credit
transactions increased 1.1%. This increase is due again to the advance of incentives to acquiring
banks, which had a 3 bps impact on the net merchant discount rate. Eliminating the impact of advances
to banks, the net merchant discount rate would have been stable.

 Revenue from debit transactions increased 26.2% over the same year-ago period, to R$ 179.0 million.
This increase is due to the 23.3% year-on-year increase in transaction volume and the spike in the
average merchant discount rate, which was 79 bps in 2Q10, versus 77 bps in 2Q09. The increase in the
discount rate was due to renegotiation of the gross discount rate with some merchants. In comparison
with 1Q10, revenue from debit transactions increased 1.1%. This increase was due to a 6.8% growth in
the transaction volume, partially offset by a reduction in the net merchant discount rate from 84 bps in
1Q10 to 79 bps in 2Q10. This reduction is due mainly to the anticipation of incentives to affiliating
banks, as already mentioned, and also due to the increased participation of the AgriCard product in the
second quarter in function of harvest season when compared to the first quarter. The net discount rate
6
of transactions with AgriCard is below average, given the characteristics of the product. AgriCard
transaction volume in 2Q10 grew 194% quarter-on-quarter to R$ 1.3 billion.

 POS rental revenues totaled R$ 304.1 million, up 16.6% over the same period of 2009, chiefly as a
result of the 14.1% increase in the POS base, due to the increased number of affiliated merchants, and
the 1.7% increase in the average rental price. On June 30, 2010, the POS base stood at 1,606 million
units. The number of terminals fell 2.1% quarter-on-quarter while average rental price rose 5.5%. This
behavior is due to the write-off of 148 thousand units from our total POS base due to the adaptation of
the base for the multi-brand scenario, scrapping some technologies that did not support the new market
conditions. The decrease in the number of terminals annulled the quarter's growth and impacted the
average rental fee per POS.

N° POS (thousand) 2Q10 2Q09 1Q10 2Q10 X 2Q09 2Q10 X 1Q10


# Total POS 1,606 1,408 1,641 14.1% -2.1%
Average Rental (R$/ Total POS) 63.1 62.0 59.8 1.7% 5.5%

 Other Revenues totaled R$ 36.3 million, a 19.7% year-on-year increase, mainly due to higher revenues
from our subsidiary in the healthcare industry. Quarter-on-quarter, Other Revenues increased 7.7%,
primarily due to the rendering of value-added network (VAN) services, that is, we transfer transactions
captured with vouchers and co-branded private label card transactions carried out at the issuing
merchants. We currently operate with more than 89 private label cards.

Prepayment of Receivables
The financial volume of prepayment transactions in 2Q10 – in its fourth consecutive quarter of growth – totaled
R$ 2.5 billion, accounting for 6.3% of the total credit portfolio, as compared with 5.8% in 1Q10. The revenue of
prepayment excluding adjustments totaled R$ 97.1 million in the quarter, up 32.5% over the first quarter of 2010
and 109.7% over 2Q09.

Revenue of Prepayment ex adjustments (R$ Million) 46,302 49,721 65,518 73,254 97,088

The average quarterly growth rate of the financial volume of prepayment transactions for the period between
2Q09 and 2Q10 was 13.8%, and 20.3% for the revenue of prepayment excluding adjustments in the same
period.

Net revenues from prepayment of receivables totaled R$ 78.8 million in 2Q10, up 74.8% over 2Q09 and 17.6%
over 1Q10.

The average ticket of these operations over the course of 2Q10 was R$ 2.6 thousand, while in 2Q09 it was R$
3.7 thousand, and in 1Q10, R$ 3.0 thousand. Another highlight of the prepayment product is the lengthening of
the average maturity from 48.5 days at the end of March, 2009 to 69.7 days at the end of this quarter, compared
with 66.1 days in 1Q10.

With over a year in operation, roughly 75% of the total amount of prepayment of receivables operations are
carried out automatically, through interactive voice response (IVR), website and automatic (pre-defined

7
prepayment frequency) channels, which shows the growth of this business line within the Company’s product
portfolio.

Cost of Services Provided


The cost of services provided was up by R$ 29.0 million, or 12.7%, totaling R$ 257.5 million in 2Q10, from R$
228.4 million in the same period of 2009. Considering the impact of the increase in brand fees, the unit cost per
transaction in 2Q10 was R$ 0.267, down 4.6% from R$ 0.280 in 2Q09. Considering the fee structure equivalent
to that in 2Q09, the unit cost would have dropped by 10.0%, to R$ 0.252 per transaction.

The nominal increase in costs was mainly due to: (i) R$ 18.4 million increase in fees paid to Visa brand, to R$
36.6 million in the quarter ended July 30, 2010, compared with R$ 18.2 million in the same year-ago period, as
a result of the renegotiation of the contract with the brand and the increase in the credit and debit transaction
financial volume and (ii) the R$ 10.4 million, or 29.6%, growth in depreciation costs of the POS equipment to R$
45.7 million in 2Q10, as compared with R$ 35.3 million in the same period of 2009. This increase is largely due
to the 14.1% increase in the POS base, the reduction in the average age of the POS equipment base and the
offer of more modern equipment, which is more expensive.

The cost of services was up 2.3% in 2Q10 over 1Q10. The unit cost per transaction in 2Q10 was down 1.5%
from R$ 0.271 in 1Q10.

Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased R$ 11.9 million, or 13.1% to R$ 102.6 million in 2Q10, compared with R$ 90.7
million in 2Q09. Over 1Q10, operating expenses increased 3.4%. The main line which led to such increase was
marketing expenses, which rose significantly in the quarter, as explained below.

Personnel expenses increased 11.3% to R$ 37.8 million, mainly due to the variable portion of employee
compensation, represented by the profit sharing and stock option plans, which reflects the new strategic
positioning adopted by the Company for attracting and retaining talent. In addition, the 5.0% pay raise stipulated
in the Union agreement in August of 2009 also contributed to this increase. Quarter-on-quarter, personnel
expenses were up 3.1% as a result of variable employee compensation, chiefly the profit sharing plan.

General and administrative expenses fell 6.5% to R$ 26.8 million due to the Company's efforts to control
expenses, observed in the third-party related expenses. General and administrative expenses fell 30.1% over
the previous quarter, primarily as a result of the provision made for some projects that materialized at a lower
amount than the expected for the period.

Marketing expenses increased 131.8% to R$ 36.0 million, reflecting the rise in institutional marketing
expenditures due to the name change to Cielo and subsequent need for positioning the new brand, in addition
to the ad campaign launched at the start of the year, preparing for the market transition on July 1, 2010.
Marketing expenses accounted for 3.4% of net revenue in 2Q10, including receivables prepayment. Over 1Q10,
marketing expenses increased 67.2%, mainly due to the intensification of campaigns prior to the multi-acquiring
scenario.

Other net operating expenses fell 85.2% to R$ 1.3 million. This decline is due to the fact that in 2Q09, this line
was impacted by IPO expenses, which shareholders later reimbursed. Compared with 1Q10, this line fell 38.6%
as it was impacted in the quarter by the revenues from contractual adjustments in supplier agreements.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA reached R$ 735.3 million in 2Q10, increasing 26.1% year-on-year and 3.0% quarter-on-
quarter. Adjusted EBITDA corresponds to net income before income tax and social contribution, depreciation
and amortization and financial income/expenses (except for gains on prepayment of receivables transactions).

Financial Result
The financial result, excluding prepayment of receivables transactions, dropped R$ 9.5 million to an expense of
R$ 1.7 million in 2Q10. This decrease was mainly caused by the lower financial investment volume, which was
down from a balance of R$ 342.9 million at the end of 2Q09 to R$ 198.0 million at the end of 2Q10 due to a
growth of the prepayment of receivables operation, which is currently financed using the Company’s own
resources. The financial result also declined quarter-on-quarter from income of R$ 12.7 million to an expense of
R$ 1.7 million, as mentioned. The main reason for such decline was a reversal of fines and contingency interest
in 1Q10.

Net Income
Net income totaled R$ 457.7 million in 2Q10, a 25.5% increase compared with the same period of 2009,
reflecting the 21.6% increase in net operating revenue and the Company’s efficiency gains evidenced by a
smaller increase in costs of services provided and in operating expenses, of 12.7% and 13.3%, respectively. In
1Q10, net income increased 4.0% for the same reasons cited above.

Cash Flow
Operating activities generated cash in the amount of R$ 100.8 million, as compared with R$ 444.5 million in
2Q09. Such reduction is mainly due to the impact of prepayment of receivables.

Investments totaled R$ 58.2 million in 2Q10, mainly due to the R$ 56.4 million expenditure with POS
acquisition.

The Company used R$ 3.0 million for financing activities in 2Q10 due to the share buyback program. The
shares will be held in treasury, as previously announced.

Corporate Governance

The Company has adopted a responsible, transparent, ethical stance in managing its businesses and seeks to
improve its corporate governance standards according to best market practices in order to preserve
shareholders' rights through equal, clear and open treatment.

On April 30, 2010, Cielo held its Annual and Extraordinary Shareholder´s Meeting that, for the first time,
accepted electronic powers-of-attorney through the Assembleias Online platform
(http://www.assembleiasonline.com.br, also accessible at http://www.cielo.com.br/ri). The Annual and
Extraordinary Shareholder´s Meeting approved the Company’s capital stock increase in the amount of R$
24,620,463.15 (twenty-four million, six hundred twenty thousand, four hundred sixty-three reais and fifteen
centavos), without a new share issue, from R$ 75,379,536.85 (seventy-five million, three hundred seventy-nine
thousand, five hundred thirty-six reais and eighty-five centavos) to R$100,000,000 (one hundred million reais)
divided into 1,364,783,800 common shares with no par value. The A/ESM also approved alterations to the
terms of office of the Board of Directors and Board of Executive Officers from one to two years.

The IR department has held public and restricted meetings with market analysts and investors. On May 5, 2010,
the Company held Cielo Day, its first major event for the market, during which the executive board presented
the Company to over 50 investors and analysts. Currently, 21 different Brazilian and international brokerage
firms cover Cielo.

In June 2010, Cielo filed the Reference Form, in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s
Normative Instruction 480. The Form is available in our IR website (www.cielo.com.br/ri) and on CVM’s
(www.cvm.gov.br).

Dividends

Cielo’s dividends policy assures, based on the Corporate Bylaws, the distribution of a minimum annual dividend
of 50% of earned income after constitution of a legal reserve with 5% of the net income for the fiscal year until
this reserve reaches 20% of the capital stock. Any remaining net income balance in the fiscal year will be
allocated as resolved by the Shareholder´s Meeting.

Furthermore, in accordance with the notice disclosed in September of 2009, the Company began to pay
dividends twice a year: in March and in September. Therefore, the next payment, to be made in September, will
remunerate shareholders based on the results of the first half of 2010.
