In March 2013, TNT Express announced the start of preparations for the sale of its domestic operations in Brazil. The company carried out a comprehensive process to secure the best outcome for shareholders, customers and employees. There was interest in the business but ultimately not at an acceptable price or conditions.
Following this decision, TNT Express will continue improving its domestic operations in Brazil, focusing on customer satisfaction, service quality, revenue management and cost control. As a result of the turnaround measures already taken, the unit has achieved first-rate service performance, generated new revenues and sharply reduced losses. In 4Q13, performance continued to improve in line with the 3Q13 year-to-date trend. Domestic Brazil will be managed as a separate business unit within TNT Express.
Domestic Brazil will no longer be reported as a discontinued operation.
