31 DECEMBER 2012
Sonae Investimentos, SGPS, SA is the company within the Sonae Group which aggregates the core activity of the group, retail.
During the course of 2012, Sonae Investimentos, SGPS, SA delivered a consolidated turnover of 4,532 million Euro - which represents a decrease of 3% compared to the previous year. In this same period, the Company´s consolidated operating cash-flow reached 321 million Euro. This figure represents a ratio over total net sales of 7.1%, 0.4 p.p. less than the previous year.
Focusing on the evolution of the Company´s activity, we highlight the following aspects:
The food based businesses decreased turnover (ex-fuel) by 1% to 3,281 million Euro reflecting the negative evolution in sales on an "LfL" basis (-2% in 2012). The market shares gains achieved in the year, with Sonae MC again strengthening its leading position in the Portuguese food retail sector, together with selective expansion of its sales area, allowed for a top line evolution well above market average.
Continente's private label portfolio continued to increase its relative weight in Sonae MC's sales, representing in 2012 almost 31% of the turnover on FMCG categories, up by 2 p.p. against 2011. It is also worth highlighting the 16% y.o.y growth in online sales registered by Continente in 2012.
In the business segment under analysis operational cash-flow increased to 247 million Euro, representing a profitability of 7.5% over turnover (+0.6 p.p. compared to 2011), a remarkable outcome in the current context of reductions in consumption. Sonae MC was able to sustain its competitiveness during this period via a combination of focused promotional activities, leveraged on its customer loyalty card (which was involved in approximately 90% of the sales in the period), a rigorous cost control, a strict inventory management policy (with YE stock levels down by 15%) and further productivity gains delivered by the successful implementation of several internal initiatives.
With regards to the specialised retail formats, the 4% turnover decline to 1,180 million Euro reflects the negative sales behaviour in more discretionary categories in Iberia, which have further deteriorated in the 4Q12, and a lower level of expansion of sales area (+0.5% in 2012 vs. +15% in 2011). Sonae SR's sales in Portugal decreased by 8%, which was only partially compensated by the 5.8% turnover growth attained in the international markets. In the key consumer electronics segment, Worten increased, once again, the leadership in the Portuguese market. The sales outside Portugal, accounted for more than 28% of total sales in 2012, 3 p.p. above the figure registered in 2011. Sonae SR has further strengthened its international presence during the year, with openings of new Zippy franchised stores in Azerbaijan, Malta, the Dominican Republic and Venezuela.
This business segment witnessed an operating cash flow decrease of 25 million Euro to zero to negative 25 million Euro. The relevant cost savings and gains in efficiency obtained by the businesses during 2012 were not sufficient to compensate the large decreases in sales of discretionary categories in Iberia, which have further deteriorated in the 4Q12.
Additionally, the Sports and Fashion divisions were negatively affected in turnover and margin by the restructurings that had to be implemented in the respective supply model during 2012. These efforts have, nevertheless, already allowed for an improved cash flow generation and significant reduction in stock levels.
The retail properties profitability particularly reflects internal rents, defined in accordance with the returns on the underlying investments, which are broadly in line with market capitalisation rates. Operating cash flow reached 107 million Euro.
During the course of the year in question, Sonae Investimentos, SGPS, SA consolidated direct operating income totalled 125 million Euro.
Financial results went from -74 million Euro in 2011 to -76 million Euro, with the lower amount of average debt being more than compensated by the increase in interest costs, solely explained by the increase in credit spreads, as average Euribor rates have actually been lower in 2012 than in 2011. At the same time, the Consolidated Net Result for the period, attributable to Shareholders of the Holding Company, amounted to 9 million Euro, compared to 64 million Euro in the previous year.
During the course of 2012, Sonae Investimentos carried out an overall investment of 127 million Euro. This figure was directed towards the execution of the Company´s expansion plan, allowing it to end the year with a portfolio of 1,009 stores and a sales area of 1,029 thousand m2 (+1% on 2011 year end portfolio).
• The amount invested by the retail properties segment reached 16 million Euro, 75% below the figure for 2011. A clear indicator of the capital light strategy which is being followed (operational leasing instead of tenure) for new retail sales area.
In 2013, Iberian economies are expected to continue to face the majority of the headwinds presented in 2012, with public consolidation efforts determining material tax increases over personal income and corporations, which will again inevitably lead to a further reduction in disposable income and rising levels of unemployment.
Consequently, a further reduction of internal economic activity is widely expected for both Portugal and Spain.
During 2013, Sonae MC will continue to focus on delivering the best value proposal to consumers in Portugal, thus aiming for sales performance above market average and, consequently, to again reinforce its market share. Exposure to more discretionary categories is expected to determine a further reduction in sales density at Sonae SR. However, cost saving efforts, the expected growth in the franchising area and in online sales, the optimisation of its store portfolio and the benefits of the restructuring of the Sports and Fashion divisions carried out in 2012, should translate into an improved cash flow generation during the current year.
As a Group, we will continue to explore international growth opportunities and leverage our exceptional asset base in Portugal, strengthening our competitive positions and innovating with new projects in adjacent business areas. Despite the investments to be carried out, the continuation of our dividend policy and the impact of the consumption retraction, we will also continue along the deleveraging path, aiming to reach the end of 2013 with a further reduction in consolidated net debt.
The general financial risk management principles of the Company are found in detail in Note 3 of the Appendix to the Income Statement.

b) The specific proposal to which they relate to with an indication of the respective proposer or proposers;
c) The precise and unconditional voting intention on each proposal.
Notwithstanding, a shareholder is allowed to include in a written voting declaration, regarding an identified proposal, the intention to vote against all alternative proposals, in relation to the same item on the agenda, without further specification.

Required quorum for amendment to the Articles of Association:
a) The Articles of Association state that at first call to deliberate on any matter, shareholders whom represent more than 50% of the share capital must be present or represented;
b) In accordance with chapter 3, article 383 of the Portuguese Companies Act, the Assembly, on a second call, can deliberate regardless of the number of shareholders present, represented or the share capital by them represented.
Under the terms of chapter 3 article 386 of the Portuguese Companies Act, the resolution regarding a change to the articles of association, must be approved by 2/3 of votes, regardless of the Assembly meeting during a first or a second call.
Article 5, chapter 2 of the Articles of Association states that the Company's share capital can be increased, through new entries in cash, of up to five thousand million Euro, in one or more stages, by resolution of the Boards of Directors, which will determine, in accordance with the law, the conditions of subscription and the categories of shares to be issued, based on those already existing at the time".
This authorisation was renewed by the Shareholders General Meeting which took place on 27th of April 2012 and remains valid for a period of 5 years under the terms of chapter 2 b) of article 456 of the Portuguese Companies Act.
This company unanimously approved, at the Annual General Meeting on the 27th of April 2012, the following statutory governing bodies Remuneration Policy, based on the following principles:
The remuneration and bonus policy applicable to statutory governing bodies and persons discharging managerial responsibilities is based on European guidelines, national legislation and recommendations issued by the Portuguese Securities Market Commission, and is based on the premise that initiative, competence and commitment are the essential factors for a good performance, which should be linked and focused on the medium and long-term interests of the Company and should aim sustainability.
Remuneration policy is determined by comparison, with the overall market and the practices of comparable companies. This information is obtained from main remuneration surveys carried out independently for Portugal and the principal European Market. Currently, the market surveys conducted by Mercer and the Hay Group, are used as references.
The companies that make up the pool of comparable companies are those included in the Portuguese stock market index, the PSI-20.
The remuneration package applicable to Executive directors is based on comparisons with the market, using market studies on top managers' remuneration packages in Portugal and across Europe, seeking to ensure that fixed remuneration is equal to the median market value, and the total remuneration is close to the market third quartile.
The fixed annual remunerations and the variable remunerations are approved by the Shareholders' General meeting and aligned with the same principles established by the remuneration Committee of the majority shareholder, Sonae, SGPS, S.A.
The fixed remuneration is aligned with market standards and determined taking into account practices of comparable companies.
The variable remuneration awarded annually to executive directors is subject to percentage limits and follows pre-defined performance assessment criteria and performance indicators, which are linked to each concerned executive director.
The variable remuneration is structured with reference to "Key Performance Indicators of Business Activity" (Business KPIs), which are economic and financial indicators based on budgets for the performance of each business, unit business, and "Personal Key Performance Indicators" (Personal KPI's), which include both objective and subjective indicators. The composition of Group Business KPIs and personal KPIs ensure the alignment of board executive members with their pre-defined strategic goals, and also ensure the compliance with applicable legal rules and regulations in force in the area.
The variable remuneration is determined through an individual performance assessment, carried out according to the principles established by the remuneration Committee of the majority shareholder, Sonae, SGPS, S.A. This assessment takes place after the disclosure of the Company's annual results.
Hence, company's activity, individual performance and contributions to collective success are assessed each year, which necessarily will condition the award of both fixed and variable remunerations for each eligible board member.
The payment of, at least 50% of the medium term performance bonus for each executive director is deferred for a period of 3 years, and is awarded according to the results of the previous year. This part of the variable remuneration ("medium term performance bonus") is made up of shares, and it is subject to the Medium term performance Bonus Plan of the majority shareholder, Sonae, SGPS, S.A.
The performance of other functions in companies in a control or group relationship is taken into account by the Remuneration Policy.
Under the Remuneration Policy, there are no compensation payments to board directors or members of statutory governing bodies related to the cessation of their duties, whether their resignation occurs according to their original mandate or whether it is anticipated for whatever reason, without prejudice to the obligation of the Company to comply with any relevant legislation in force in this area.
Under the remuneration Policy there is not any system of benefits, in particular relating to retirement, in favour of members of the Board of Directors, auditing bodies and other executives.
In order to ensure the effectiveness and transparency of the objectives of the Remuneration and Compensation Policy, it is verified that executive directors:
have not signed nor will sign contracts with the Company or with third parties that would have the effect of mitigating the risks inherent in the variable nature of the remuneration that the Company has established for them;
have not disposed of, during the period of their mandate, nor will dispose of during any new mandate, shares in the Company, to which they have acquired the right through the award of variable remuneration up to a maximum of two and a half times the value of their total annual remuneration, with the exception of those that have to be disposed of to pay any taxes resulting f
B. In Particular, the remuneration for members of the statutory governing bodies and persons discharging managerial responsibilities is based on the following rules:
The remuneration policy includes control mechanisms, which consider the link between individual and group performance, in such a manner as to avoid behaviour which is likely to involve excessive risk. This goal is also achieved by limiting the maximum value of each Key Performance Indicator (KPI).
The executive directors remuneration and bonus policy is made up of two main parts: (i) a fixed component, which incorporates a Base Remuneration , and an Annual Responsibility Allowance, taking as reference a period of a year; (ii) a variable remuneration awarded in the first quarter following the year to which it relates and linked to performance in the prior year, divided into two parts: (a) a Short term variable Performance Bonus paid immediately after being awarded and (b) a Medium term variable Performance Bonus, paid after a deferral period of 3 years.
(i) Fixed Remuneration is defined in accordance with the responsibility level of each Executive Director and is reviewed annually. Each Executive Director is attributed a classification, internally referred to as a Management Level ("Grupo Funcional"). Executive Directors are classified as either "Group Leader", "Group Senior Executive" or "Group Senior Executive". Management Levels are structured according to Hay's international model for the classification of corporate functions, thereby facilitating market comparisons, as well as helping to promote internal equity.
(ii) The Variable remuneration aims to guide and compensate Executive Directors for achieving predefined goals and it is based on the company's performance indicators, on the performance indicators of the working team under their responsibility and management, and on their personal performance. It is awarded after the accounts of the Company have been prepared and performance evaluations have been completed for the year in question. In view of the fact that it is dependent on the achievement of objectives, its payment is not guaranteed.
This Bonus is paid in the following year to which it relates. Of this amount, around 70% is based on business, economic and financial KPIs. These indicators are objectives, which are divided into group and departmental KPIs. Group business KPIs are economic and financial indicators based on budgets for the performance of each business unit, as well on the overall consolidated performance of Sonae. Departmental business KPIs are of a similar nature to Group KPIs in that they are directly influenced by the performance of the executive director concerned. The remaining 30% are determined based on the achievement of personal KPIs, which are subjective indicators.
This Bonus aims to enhance Executive Director's loyalty, aligning their interests with shareholders, and increasing their awareness of the importance of their performance on the overall success of our organization. The amounts for the Medium Term Performance Bonus represent for Executive Directors, 100% of the attributed Short Term Performance Bonus and 50% of the global variable remuneration. The value paid in Euros shall be divided by the quoted share price for the determination of the number of shares it corresponds to. The value converted into shares will be adjusted to include any variations occurring in the share capital or dividends to obtain the Total Shareholder Return during a three years deferring period. At the vesting date, the shares shall be delivered without cost, and the Company will keep the option to alternatively deliver the corresponding amount in cash.
Considering the two parts of the variable remuneration, the pre-defined goal's value varies from 30% and 60% of the annual remuneration (fixed remuneration and objective value of the variable remuneration).
In relation to calculation of results, the value for each bonus has a minimum of 0% and a maximum of 140% of the pre-defined goal.
Non-Executive Directors
The remuneration of Non-Executive Members of the Board of Directors might be based on market comparables, respecting the following principles: (1) a Fixed Remuneration (of which approximately 15% depends on attendance at Board of Directors); (2) an Annual Responsibility Allowance.
No variable remuneration of any kind is paid.
The remuneration of the members of the Statutory Audit Board is based exclusively on fixed annual amounts, which includes an Annual Responsibility Allowance established according to the Company's features and market comparable practices.
The Statutory External Auditor of the Company is remunerated in accordance with normal fee levels for similar services, by reference to market information, under the supervision of our Statutory Audit Board.
The remuneration of the members of the Board at the Shareholders' General Meeting corresponds to a fixed amount, to be determined based on the Company's financial position and market practices.
Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ("Dirigentes"), under the terms of Article 248- B Paragraph 3 of the Portuguese Securities Code, in addition to the Stautory Governing Bodies mentioned above, include senior managers who have regular access to Privileged Information and are involved in taking management and business strategy decisions at the Company.
The Compensation Policy applicable to individuals who, under the terms of the law, are considered to be Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ("Dirigentes"), shall be equivalent to the one adopted for other senior managers with the same level of functions and responsibilities, without awarding any additional benefit in addition to that which results from their respective Management Level.
In compliance with CMVM Recommendation II.1.5.2., it is hereby represented that:
(i) The entities which were taken into consideration as comparable elements for the determination of the remuneration are those which are identified in chapter 1 above.
(ii) No payments related to dismissal or cessation of any Directors' duties were paid.
The existence of an effective internal control environment, particularly in the process of financial reporting, is a commitment Sonae Investimentos Board of Directors has. It aims to identify and improve most relevant process in terms of preparation and disclosure of financial information, with the aims of transparency, consistency, simplicity and materiality. The objective of the internal control system is to ensure a reasonable guarantee in relation to the preparation of financial statements in accordance with the accounting principles adopted, and quality of financial reporting.
The reliability of the financial information is guaranteed not only by the clear separation between who prepares it and the users, but also by the implementation of various control procedures during the process of preparation and disclosure of financial information.
The internal control system regarding accounting, preparation and disclosure of financial information, includes the following key controls:
The Management Report and the Corporate Governance Report are prepared with contributes from multidisciplinary teams;
The various documents which constitute the annual report are reviewed and approved by Sonae Investimentos Board of Directors. After the approval, the documents are sent to the External Auditor, who provides the legal accounts certification and Auditing Report;
Amongst the risk causes which may materially affect the accounting and financial reporting, we note the following:
More specific information on how these, and other risk causes were mitigated, can be consulted during the course of notes to the financial statements.
Sonae Investments adopts various actions related to the continuous improvement of the Financial Risk Control System, including:
• Improvement in control documentation – Following work carried out in the past, during 2013 Sonae Investimentos will continue to improve the documentation and systemisation of risks and the internal control system related to the concern for financial information. This work includes the identification of risk/causes (inherent risk), and identification of process with greater materiality, the control of documentation and the final analysis (residual risk) after the implementation of potential improvements in controls:
• Fulfilment Review – The Legal team in cooperation with the Administrative, Internal Auditing and Risk Management departments, and in accordance with other necessary departments, coordinates a periodic review of the compliance with legal and regulatory requirements regarding the processes of underlying government and corresponding financial information, which are disclosed in the Management Report and Corporate Governance Report.

(Amounts expressed in euro)
Sonae Investimentos, SGPS, S.A., has its head-office at Rua João Mendonça nº 529, 4464-501 Senhora da Hora, Portugal, and is the parent company of a group of companies, as detailed in Notes 5 to 7 the Sonae Investimentos Group ("Sonae Investimentos"). Sonae Investimentos operations are described in the management report and in Note 45.
During the period the Group changed the following accounting policies:
IFRS 11 - Joint arrangements, has already been issued by the IASB and endorsed by the European Union with mandatory application for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2014. The application of this standard was, until 31 December 2011, expected to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements, in particular with regard to the extinction of the proportionate consolidation method for jointly controlled entities, which would produce a significant impact on the Group's Travel business ("Raso").
During the year ended 31 December 2012, Sonae Investimentos decided, anticipating the predictable impacts of this standard and to facilitate future comparison of its financial statements, to report all of its jointly controlled entities according to the equity method as from 1 January 2012, currently an option under IAS 31 joint Ventures, which is an approximation to the established by IFRS 11.
The principal accounting policies adopted in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements are as follows:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"); as adopted by the European Union. This standards were issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and interpretations issued by International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC") or by the previous Standing Interpretations Committee ("SIC"), that have been adopted by the European Union as at the consolidated financial statements issuance date.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the books and accounting records of the Company, subsidiaries and joint ventures, adjusted in the consolidation process, on a going concern basis and under the historical cost convention, except for financial instruments which are stated at fair value.
Up to the financial statements approval date, the following Standards and Interpretations, some of which become effective during the year 2012, have been endorsed by the European Union:
| With mandatory application in 2012: | Effective Date(for financial years beginning on/after) |
|---|---|
| IFRS 7 Financial Instruments : Disclosures Amendments (issued 7 October 2010) |
01-07-2011 |
No significant impacts are expected to arise in the financial statements resulting from the adoption of these standards.
The following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions were endorsed by the European Union and have mandatory application is mandatory in future financial years:
| With mandatory application from 1 January 2013 onwards: | Effective Date (for financial years beginning on/after) |

(*) In accordance with the EU Regulation which approved the adoption of IFRS 10, 11 and 12 and the amendments to IAS 27 and IAS 28, an entity shall use these standards no later than periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014. The early adoption is however permitted;
(**) In accordance with the EU Regulation which approved this amendment to IAS 12, an entity shall apply the standard for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. The early adoption is permitted;
The Group did not proceed to earlier adoption of any of these standards on the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2012. No significant impacts are expected in the financial statements resulting from the adoption of these standards, namely because the Group has amended the measurement of investments in jointly controlled entities by applying the equity method (Note 4).
The main accounting policies adopted by Sonae Investimentos are as follows:
Investments in companies in which Sonae Investimentos owns, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting rights at Shareholders' General Meetings or is able to establish financial and operational policies so as to benefit from its activities (definition of control normally used by Sonae Investimentos), were included in the consolidated financial statements using the full consolidation method. Equity and net profit attributable to minority shareholders are shown separately, under the caption Non-controlling interests, in the consolidated statement of financial position and in the consolidated income statement, respectively. Companies included in the consolidated financial statements are listed in Note 4.
The comprehensive income is attributable to the owners of Sonae Investimentos Group and non-controlling interests even if the situation results in a deficit balance at the level of non-controlling interests.
Assets and liabilities of each subsidiary are measured at their fair value at the acquisition date or gain of control (measurement period of twelve months). The excess of the consideration transferred plus the fair value of any previously held interests and non-controlling interests over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill (Note 2.2.c)). Any excess of the fair value of identifiable assets over consideration transferred, previously held interests and non-controlling interests recognized as income in profit or loss for the period of acquisition in the caption "Other income", after reassessment of the estimated fair value attributed to the net assets acquired. Sonae Investimentos will choose on a transaction-bytransaction basis, the measurement of non-controlling interests, (i) according to the non-controlling interests share of assets liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree, or (ii) according to their fair value.
The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the consolidated income statement from the effective date of their gain of control or up to the effective date of loss of control, as appropriate.
Adjustments to the financial statements of Sonae Investimentos companies are performed, whenever necessary, in order to adapt accounting policies to those used by Sonae Investimentos. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses and distributed dividends are eliminated on consolidation.
Whenever Sonae Investimentos has, in substance, control over other entities created for a specific purpose, even if no share capital interest is directly held in those entities, these are consolidated by the full consolidation method.
Investments in jointly controlled entities are recorded using the equity method, currently an alternative to the proportional method as established by IAS 31 - joint Ventures (Notes 1 and 4).
Investments in associated companies (companies where Sonae Investimentos exercises significant influence but does not establish financial and operational policies – usually corresponding to holdings between 20% and 50% in a company's share capital) are accounted for in accordance with the equity method.
Under the equity method, investments are recorded at cost, adjusted by the amount corresponding to Sonae Investimentos' share of changes in equity (including net profit) of associated companies and to dividends received.
Any excess of the cost of acquisition over Sonae Investimentos' share in the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill (Note 2.2.c)), which is included in the caption Investment in jointly controlled and associated companies. Any excess of Sonae Investimentos' share in the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired over cost is recognized as income in the profit or loss for the period of acquisition, after reassessment of the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired under the caption Share of profit of jointly controlled and associated companies.
An assessment of investments in jointly controlled and associated companies is performed when there is an indication that the asset might be impaired. Any impairment loss is recorded in the income statement. Impairment losses recorded in prior years that are no longer justifiable are reversed.
When Sonae Investimentos' share of losses exceeds the carrying amount of the investment in jointly controlled and associated companies, the investment is reported at nil value and recognition of losses is discontinued, unless Sonae Investimentos is committed beyond the value of its investment. In these situations impairment is recorded for that amount.
The Sonae Investimentos' share in unrealized gains arising from transactions with jointly controlled and associated companies is eliminated. Unrealized losses are eliminated, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment of the asset transferred.
Investments in jointly controlled and associated companies are disclosed in Note 6.
The excess of consideration transferred in the acquisition of investments in subsidiaries, jointly controlled and associated companies plus the amount of any non-controlling interests (in the case of affiliated companies) over Sonae Investimentos's share in the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of those companies at the date of acquisition, when positive, is shown as Goodwill (Note 11) or as Investments in associated companies (Note 6). The excess of the consideration transferred in the acquisition of investments in foreign companies plus the amount of any non-controlling interests (in the case of affiliated companies) over the fair value of their identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of acquisition is calculated using the functional currency of each of those companies. Translation to the Sonae Investimentos functional currency (Euro) is made using the closing exchange rate. Exchange rate differences arising from this translation are recorded and disclosed in "Other Reserves and Retained earnings".
Goodwill is not amortized, but it is subject to impairment tests on an annual basis. Net recoverable amount is determined based on business plans used by Sonae Investimentos management or on valuation reports issued by independent entities. Impairment losses recognized in the period are recorded in the income statement under the caption "Provisions and impairment losses".
Impairment losses related with goodwill will not be reversed.
Any excess of Sonae Investimentos's share in the fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities, in affiliated companies, associated companies and jointly controlled companies, plus, in affiliated companies, the amount of non-controlling interests, at acquisition date, if negative, is recognized as income in the profit or loss for the period, after reassessment of the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired.
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies in the financial statements of foreign companies are translated to euro using exchange rates at the statement of financial position date. Profit and loss and cash flows are converted to euro using the average exchange rate for the period. Exchange rate differences originated after 1 January 2004 are recorded as equity under Translation reserves in Reserves and retained earnings. Exchange rate differences that were originated prior to 1 January 2004 (date of transition to IFRS) were written-off through "Other Reserves and Retained earnings".
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising from the acquisition of foreign companies are recorded as assets and liabilities of those companies and translated to euro using exchange rates at the statement of financial position date.
Whenever a foreign company is sold (totally or partially), but with loss of control, accumulated exchange rate differences are recorded in the income statement as a gain or loss on the disposal, in the caption Investment income.
Exchange rates used on translation of foreign group, jointly controlled and associated companies are listed below:
| 31 December 2012 | 31 December 2011 Restated | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| End of period | Average of period | End of period | Average of period | |||
| Brazilian Real | 0.36988 | 0.39996 | 0.41392 | 0.43061 | ||
| Turquish Lira | 0.42461 | 0.43242 | 0.40930 | 0.42996 |
Tangible assets acquired up to 1 January 2004 (transition date to IFRS) are recorded at acquisition or production cost, or revalued acquisition cost, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Portugal until that date, net of depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Tangible assets acquired after that date, are recorded at acquisition cost, net of depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciations are calculated on a straight line basis, as from the date the asset is first used, over the expected useful life for each class of assets, and recorded against the income statement caption "Depreciation and amortization".
The impairment losses detected on tangible assets are recorded in the year, in wide the estimation is made, recorded against the consolidate income statement caption "Provisions and impairment losses".
The depreciation rates used correspond to the following estimated useful lives:
| Years | |
|---|---|
| Land and Buildings | 50 |
| Plant and machinery | 10 to 15 |
| Vehicles | 5 |
| Tools | 4 |
| Office equipment | 10 |
| Other tangible assets | 5 |
Maintenance and repair costs relating to tangible assets are recorded directly as expenses in the year they are incurred.
Tangible assets in progress represent fixed assets still under construction-development and are stated at acquisition cost net of impairment losses. These assets are depreciated from the date they are completed or become ready for use.
Gains or losses on sale or disposal of tangible assets are calculated as the difference between the selling price and the carrying amount of the asset at the date of its sale-disposal. These are recorded in the income statement under either "Other income" or "Other expenses".
Intangible assets are stated at acquisition cost, net of depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets are only recognized if it is probable that future economic benefits will flow from them, if they are controlled by Sonae Investimentos and if their cost can be reliably measured.
Expenditure on research associated with new technical know-how is recognized as an expense recorded in the income statement when it is incurred.
Expenditure on development is recognized as an intangible asset if Sonae Investimentos demonstrates the technical feasibility and its intention to complete the asset, its ability to sell or use it and the probability that the asset will generate future economic benefits. Expenditure on development which does not fulfill these conditions is recorded as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.
Internal costs associated with maintenance and development of software is recorded as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. Only costs directly attributable to projects for which the generation of future economic benefits to Sonae Investimentos is probable are capitalized as intangible assets.
Amortizations are calculated on a straight line basis as from the date the asset is first used, over the expected useful life which usually is 5 years. It is recorded in the caption of "Amortizations and depreciations".
Brands and patents with undefined useful lives are not amortized, but are subject to impairment tests on an annual basis.
Lease contracts are classified as (i) a finance lease if the risks and rewards incidental to ownership lie with the lessee and (ii) as an operating lease if the risks and rewards incidental to ownership do not lie with the lessee.
Whether a lease is classified as finance or an operating lease depends on the substance of the transaction rather than the form of the contract.
Assets acquired through finance lease contracts as well as the correspondent responsibilities, are posted by the financial method, posting in the statement of financial position the acquired asset and the pending debts according to the contractual financial plan at fair value or, if less, at the present level of payments. Both the finance charge and the depreciation expense for depreciable assets are taken to the income statement in the period in which they are incurred.
Lease payments under operating lease contracts are recognized as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term.
For operating lease agreements where Sonae Investimentos is lessor, assets remain recorded in the Sonae Investimentos' statement of financial position and the revenue is recognized on a straight line basis during the period of the agreement.
Government grants are recorded at fair value when there is reasonable assurance that they will be received and that Sonae Investimentos will comply with the conditions attaching to them.
Grants received as compensation for expenses, namely grants for personnel training, are recognized as income in the same period as the relevant expense.
Investment grants related to fixed assets are disclosed as "Other current liabilities" and are recognized as income on a straight line basis over the expected useful lives of those underlying assets.
Grants related to incurred costs are recorded as profit in the extent there is a reasonable assurance that these will be received, that the granted costs have already been incurred and that Sonae Investmentos will comply with the conditions necessary for its grant.
Assets are assessed for impairment at each statement of financial position date whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
Whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized in the income statement under "Provisions and impairment losses".
The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. Fair value less costs to sell is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arm's length transaction less the costs of disposal. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Recoverable amounts are estimated for individual assets or, if this is not possible, for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Reversal of impairment losses recognized in prior years is only recorded when it is concluded that the impairment losses recognized for the asset no longer exist or have decreased. This analysis is performed whenever there is an indication that the impairment loss previously recognized has been reversed. The reversal is recorded in the income statement as "Other income". However, the increased carrying amount of an asset due to a reversal of an impairment loss is recognized to the extent it does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for that asset in prior years.
Borrowing costs are usually recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of tangible and intangible assets, real estate projects classified as inventories or investment properties are capitalized as part of the cost of the qualifying asset. Borrowing costs are capitalized from the beginning of preparation of the activities to construct or develop the asset up to the time the production or construction is complete or when asset development is interrupted. Any income earned on funds temporarily invested pending their expenditure on the qualifying asset, is deducted from the borrowing costs that qualify for capitalization.
Consumer goods are stated at the lower of acquisition cost deducted from discounts obtained and net realizable value, cost is determined on a weighted average basis.
Differences between cost and net realizable value, if negative, are shown as expenses under the caption "Cost of goods sold and materials consumed".
Provisions are recognized when, and only when, Sonae Investimentos has an obligation (legal or implicit) resulting from a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of that obligation. Provisions are reviewed and adjusted at the statement of financial position date to reflect the best estimate as of that date.
Restructuring provisions are recognized by Sonae Investimentos whenever a formal and detailed restructuring plan exists and that plan has been communicated to the parties involved.
The Company classifies the financial instruments in the categories presented and conciliated with the Statement of financial position disclosed in Note 8.
Investments are classified into the following categories:
-Held to maturity;
-Investments measured at fair value through profit or loss;
-Available for sale;
Held to maturity investments are classified as "Non-current assets" unless they mature within 12 months of the statement of financial position date. Investments classified as held to maturity have defined maturities and the Group has the intention and ability to hold them until the maturity date.
The investments measured at fair value through profit or loss include the investments held for trading that Sonae Investimentos acquires with the purpose of trading in the short term. They are disclosed in the consolidated statement of financial position as current investments.
Sonae Investimentos classifies as available for sale those investments that are neither included as investments measured at fair value through profit or loss nor as investments held to maturity. These assets are classified as non-current assets, except if the sale is expected to occur within 12 months from the date of classification.
All purchases and sale of investments are recognized on the trade date, independently of the settlement date.
Investments are initially recorded at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration paid for them including, transaction costs, apart from investments measured at fair value through profit or loss, in which the investments are initially recognized at fair value and transaction costs are recognized in the income statement.
Investments measured at fair value through profit or loss and available for sale investments are subsequently carried at fair value, without any deduction for transaction costs which may be incurred on sale by reference to their quoted market value at statement of financial position date. Investments in equity instruments that do not have a market price and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are stated at acquisition cost less impairment losses.
Gains or losses arising from a change in fair value of available for sale investments are recognized directly in equity, under "Investments fair value reserve", in the caption "Reserves and retained earnings", until the investment is sold or otherwise disposed of, or until it is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in equity is transferred to net profit or loss.
Changes in the fair value of investments measured at fair value through profit or loss are included in consolidated income statement for the period under financial expenses or financial income.
Held to maturity investments are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate, net of capital reimbursements and interest income received.
Trade accounts receivables and other accounts receivable are recorded at their nominal value and presented in the consolidated statement of financial position net of impairment losses, recognized under the caption "Impairment losses on accounts receivable", in order to reflect its net realizable value.
Impairment is recognized if there is objective and measurable evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred, the balance will not be fully received. For this purpose, each Sonae Investimentos subsidiary takes into consideration market information that evidences that the client is not accomplishing its responsibilities as well as historic information about due and not received balances.
Recognized Impairment losses equal the difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the corresponding present value of the estimated future cash-flows, discounted at the initial effective interest rate. The initial effective interest rate is considered null when the collection is expected within one year.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified and accounted for based upon their contractual substance, independently from the legal form they assume.
Equity instruments are contracts that evidence a residual interest in the assets of Sonae Investimentos after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by Sonae Investimentos are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Loans are recorded as liabilities at their nominal value, net of up-front fees and commissions related to the issuance of those instruments. Financial expenses are calculated based on the effective interest rate and are recorded in the income statement on an accruals basis, in accordance with the accounting policy defined in Note 2.16. The portion of the effective interest charge relating to up-front fees and commissions, if not paid in the period, is added to the book value of the loan.
Funding on the form of commercial paper are classified as non-current, when they have guarantees of placing for a period exceeding one year and it is the intention of Sonae Investimentos to maintain the use of this form of financing for a period exceeding one year.
Accounts payable are stated at their nominal value, as they do not bear interests and the effect of discounting is considered immaterial.
Sonae Investimentos uses derivatives in the management of its financial risks to hedge such risks. Derivatives are not used for trading purposes.
Sonae Investimentos' criteria for classifying a derivative instrument as a cash flow hedge instrument include:
Cash flow hedge instruments used by Sonae Investimentos to hedge the exposure to changes in interest rates of its loans are initially accounted for at cost value, and subsequently adjusted to the corresponding fair value. Changes in fair value of these cash flow hedge instruments are recorded in equity under the caption "Hedging reserves", included in the caption "Reserves and Retained Earnings", and then recognized in the income statement over the same period in which the hedged instrument affects profit or loss. The inefficiencies, when they exist, are recorded under "Financial income" and "Financial expenses".
The fair value of these financial instruments is estimated using specific software based on the discounted cash flow of the difference between the fixed interest rate of the fixed leg and the indexed variable interest rate inherent to the variable leg, through the use of interest rate curves taken from Bloomberg.
Hedge accounting of derivative instruments is discontinued when the instrument matures or is sold. Whenever a derivative instrument can no longer be qualified as a hedging instrument, the fair value differences recorded and deferred in equity under the caption "Hedging reserve", included in the caption "Reserves and Retained Earnings", are transferred to profit and loss of the year or in the carrying amount of the asset that resulted from the hedged forecast transaction. Subsequent changes in fair value are recorded in the income statement.
In those cases in which the derivatives, despite being negotiated to hedge financial risks inherent to the business (essentially, currency "forwards" to hedge future imports of inventories), do not fulfill the criteria for hedge accounting under IAS 39, changes in the fair value are recorded directly in the income statement.
When embedded derivatives exist, they are accounted for as separate derivatives when the risks and the characteristics are not closely related to economic risks and characteristics of the host contract, and these are not stated at fair value gains and losses which are not realizable are recorded in the Income Statement.
Additionally, Sonae Investimentos also negotiates, in specific situations, interest rate derivatives and foreign exchange rate derivatives directed to hedge fair values. In these cases, the derivatives are stated at fair value through the Income statement. When the hedged instrument is not measured at fair value (i.e. loans which are recorded at amortized cost) the book value is adjusted by the amount which is effectively hedged through the profit and loss.
Sonae Investimentos may agree to become part of a derivative transaction in order to hedge cash-flows hedge related to exchange rate risk. In some cases, these derivatives may not fulfill the criteria for hedging accounting under IAS 39, and if so changes in their fair value are recognized in the income statement.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash at bank, term deposits and other treasury applications which mature in less than three months and are subject to insignificant risk of change in value.
In the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents also include bank overdrafts, which are included in the balance consolidated sheet caption of "current bank loans".
The non-current assets (or disposal group) are recorded as held for sale if it is expected that the book value will be recovered through the sale and not through the use in the operations. This condition is achieved only if the sale is highly probable and the asset (or disposal group) is available for the immediate sale in the actual conditions. Additionally, there must be in progress actions that should allow concluding the sale within 12 months counting from the classification´s date in this caption. The non-current assets (or disposal group) recorded as held for sale are booked at the lower amount of the historical cost or the fair value deducted from costs, not being amortized after being classified as held for sale.
Share-based payments result from Deferred Performance Bonus Plans which were attributed by Sonae Investimentos, and are indexed to the evolution of the Sonae SGPS, S.A. shares' price (Parent Company of Sonae Investimentos, SGPS, S.A.).
Share based payment liabilities are measured at fair value on the date they are granted (usually in March each year) and are subsequently remeasured at the end of each reporting period based on the number of shares granted and the corresponding fair value at the closing date. These obligations are stated as staff costs and other current and non-current liabilities, and are recorded on a straight line basis, between the date the shares are granted and their vesting date, taking into consideration the time elapsed between these dates when referring to shares as call options which can be net settled through down payment. In the case of equity-settled share-based payment transactions, these obligations are recognized as staff costs and stated in Reserves and are recorded on a straight line basis between the date the shares are granted and their vesting date.
Contingent assets are not recognized in the financial statements but disclosed where an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
Contingent liabilities are not recorded in the financial statements, instead they are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, unless the probability of a cash outflow is remote, in which case, no disclosure is made.
The tax charge for the year is determined based on the taxable income of each company included in the consolidation perimeter taking into consideration deferred taxes.
Current income tax is determined based on the taxable income of companies included in the consolidation, in accordance with the tax rules in force in their respective country of incorporation.
Deferred taxes are calculated using the statement of financial position liability method, reflecting the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated and annually remeasured using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted and therefore expected to apply in the periods when the temporary differences are expected to reverse.
Deferred tax assets are recognized only when it is probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available against which the deferred tax assets can be used, or when taxable temporary differences are recognized and expected to reverse in the same period. At each statement of financial position date a review is made of the deferred tax assets recognized is made, being reduced whenever their future use is no longer probable.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded in the income statement, except if they relate to items directly recorded in equity. In these cases the corresponding deferred tax is recorded in Equity.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized in the consolidated income statement when the risks and benefits have been transferred to the buyer and the amount of the revenue can be measured reasonably. Sales are recorded net of sales taxes and discounts and other expenses arising from the sale, and are measured as the fair value of the amount received or receivable.
Revenue associated with extended warranties operations, which are granted for a period of 1 to 3 years, after the legally binding warranty of 2 years, is recognized ratably over the warranty lifetime period. The revenue associated with warranties sold but for which the legal binding warranty hasn´t yet expired is accounted under the captions of the Statement of Financial Position "Other non-current liabilities" and "other current liabilities".
With regard to services rendered by travel agencies (done by Raso SGPS, SA and its subsidiaries and currently measured by the equity method), revenue is recognized with the issuance of invoice. At statement of financial position date, adjustments are made in order to accrue for revenue of the services already rendered but whose billing had not occurred yet, as well expenses associated with subcontracts. In transactions in which the Group operates as an agent, revenue relates to the commission. In transactions in which Sonae acts as principal (Package Programmes developed in their own name) revenue is the total amount billed to the client.
Revenue from services rendered is recorded in the consolidated income statement taking into consideration the stage of completion of the transaction at statement of financial position date.
Dividends are recognized as income in the year they are attributed to the shareholders.
The deferral of revenue related with customer loyalty programs, (attribution of awards) are measured taking into account the likelihood of redemption and are deducted to revenue when their award credits are granted. The corresponding liability is recognized in the caption "Other Creditors."
Income and expenses are recorded in the year to which they relate, independently of the date of the corresponding payment or receipt. Income and expenses for which their real amount is not known are estimated.
"Other current assets" and "Other current liabilities" include income and expenses of the reporting year which will only be invoiced in the future. Those captions also include receipts and payments that have already occurred but will only correspond to income or expenses in future years, thus being recorded in the income statement of the future period.
Transactions are recorded in the financial statements of each subsidiary based on the functional currency of that subsidiary using the exchange rates on the date of each transaction.
At each statement of financial position date, all monetary assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency of each entity at the foreign exchange rates prevailing as of that date. All non-monetary assets and liabilities recorded at fair value and stated in foreign currencies are converted to the functional currency of each subsidiary, using the exchange rate at the date the fair value was determined.
Exchange gains and losses arising from differences between the historical foreign exchange rates and those prevailing at the date of collection, payment or the date of the statement of financial position, are recorded as profits or loss for the period, except those related to non-monetary assets or liabilities, in which, the adjustments to the fair value are directly recorded under equity.
When exposure to currency risk is aimed to be minimized, Sonae Investimentos negotiates hedging currency derivatives (Note 2.11.f).
Post statement of financial position events that provide additional information about conditions that existed at the statement of financial position date (adjusting events), are reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Post statement of financial position events that are not-adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when considered to be material.
The most significant accounting estimates reflected in the financial statements are as follows:
Estimates used are based on the best information available during the preparation of these financial statements and are based on the best knowledge of past and present events. Although future events are neither controlled by Sonae Investimentos nor foreseeable, some could occur and have impact on the estimates. Changes to the estimates used by management that occur after the date of these consolidated financial statements, will be recognized in net income prospectively, in accordance with IAS 8.
The main estimates and assumptions in relation to future events included in the preparation of consolidated financial statements are disclosed in the correspondent notes.
Information regarding operating segments identified is included in Note 45.
Treasury Shares are recorded at their acquisition cost as a reduction to equity. Gains or losses arising from sales of own shares are recorded in "Other reserves and retained earnings"
Portuguese commercial legislation requires that at least 5% of annual net profit must be appropriated to a legal reserve, until such reserve reaches at least 20% of the share capital. This reserve is not distributable, except in the case of liquidation of the Company, but it may be used to absorb losses, after all the other reserves are exhausted, or to increase the share capital.
Hedging Reserves reflect the changes in fair value of "cash flow" hedging derivates that are considered as effective (Note 2.11.f), and is not distributable or used to cover losses.
The currency translation reserve corresponds to exchange differences relating to the translation from the functional currencies of Sonae Investimentos foreign subsidiaries and joint ventures into euro, in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 2.17.
The reserves constituted according to Art. 324 of ("CSC"), reflect the value of treasury shares acquired in the period and comply with commercial legislation relating with legal reserves.
According to Portuguese commercial legislation the amount of distributable reserves is computed considering the Company's individual financial statements presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.
Risk management general principles are approved by the Board of Directors, and its implementation is supervised by the Group's finance department.
The interest and exchange rate risk have a decisive importance in what concerns market risk management.
Derivatives are used to hedge certain exposures related to Sonae Investimentos market risk and, Sonae Investimentos does not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
Sonae Investimentos' exposure to the interest rate risk arises mainly from the long term loans which bear interests indexed to Euribor.
The interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on the following assumptions:
Changes in market interest rates affect the interest income or expense of variable interest financial instruments (the interest payments of which are not designated as hedged items of cash flow hedges against interest rate risks). As a consequence, they are included in the calculation of income-related sensitivities;
Changes in market interest rates only affect interest income or expense in relation to financial instruments with fixed interest rates if these are recognized at their fair value. As such, all financial instruments with fixed interest rates that are carried at amortised cost are not subject to interest rate risk as defined in IFRS 7;
In the case of fair value hedges designed for hedging interest rate risks, when the changes in the fair values of the hedged item and the hedging instrument attributable to interest rate movements are offset almost completely in the income statement in the same period, these financial instruments are also not exposed to interest rate risk;
Changes in the market interest rate of financial instruments that were designated as hedging instruments in a cash flow hedge (to hedge payment fluctuations resulting from interest rate movements) affect the hedging reserve in equity and are therefore taken into consideration in the equity-related sensitivity calculation with impact in equity (other reserves);
Changes in the fair values of derivative financial instruments and other financial assets and liabilities are estimated by discounting the future cash flows to net present values using appropriate market rates prevailing at the year end, and assuming a parallel shift in interest rate curves;
For the purposes of sensitivity analysis, such analysis is performed based on all financial instruments outstanding during the year.
Under these assumptions, if interest rates of euro denominated financial instruments had been 75 basis points higher, the consolidated net profit before tax for the period ended as at 31 December 2012 would decrease by approximately 7.9 million euro (8.4 million euro as at 31 December 2011), considering the contractual fixing dates and excluding other effects arising from the company operations.
The impact on the financial statements of changes in exchange rate is immaterial, as the most part of the transactions are denominated in euro. Sonae Investimentos is only exposed to foreign exchange risk due to inventories imports made and denominated in US Dollars.
The exchange risk management purpose is to provide a stable decision platform when deciding and negotiating the purchases of inventories establishing fixed exchange rates. The hedging follows all the purchase process, since procurement up to the formal agreement of purchase.
The exchange risk exposure is monitored through the purchase of forwards with the goal of minimizing the negative impacts of volatility in exposure level as a consequence of changes of the amounts of imports denominated in other currencies rather than euro.
As at 31 December 2012 and 2011 the assets and liabilities denominated in a currency different from the subsidiary functional currency where the following:
| Assets | Liabilities | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 31 December 2012 | 31 December 2011 31 December 2012 Restated |
31 December 2011 Restated |

| Other Currencies | 7,407 | 21,022 | 2,578 | 3,436 |
The amounts presented above, only include assets and liabilities expressed in different currency than the functional currency used by the affiliated company. Therefore it does not represent any risk of financial statements translation. Considering the exposure above, which is considered immaterial, no sensitivity analysis is disclosed.
The purpose of liquidity risk management is to ensure, at all times, that the group has the financial capacity to fulfil its commitments as they become due and to carry on its business activities and strategy, through the management of the tradeoff cost and maturity of debt.
Sonae Investimentos follows an active policy of re-financing its debts by maintaining a high level of unused and available on demand resources to face short term needs and by increasing or maintaining an adequate debt maturity, according to the estimated cash-flows, and to the capability of leveraging its statement of financial position.
Negotiating contractual terms which reduce the possibility of the lenders being able to demand an early termination is also considered as an important mean of managing liquidity risk. The group also assures, in its relationship with financial institutions, a high level of diversification of financing sources and counterparties, in order to ease the ability of entering new loan agreements and to minimize the effects of any relationship discontinuance.
The liquidity analysis of each class of financial liabilities is presented in the corresponding notes.
Sonae Investimentos is exposed to the credit risk in its current operational activity. The credit risk in the scope of its current operational activity is managed through a system of gathering financial and qualitative information from independent entities that supply risk information, in order to allow the assessment of credit risk from debtors. The credit risk from suppliers arises from advances made to or discounts billed to suppliers and are mitigated by the expectation of maintaining the commercial relationship. The amounts presented in the statement of financial position are net of impairment losses, thus reflect its fair value.
Sonae Investimentos is also exposed to the credit risk in its relationship with financial institutions, in result of bank deposits, debt instruments available facilities, derivates, among others.
The credit risk is limited to financial institutions, by risk concentration management and by a selection of counterparties, which have a high national and international prestige and based on their respective rating notations taking into account the nature, maturity and size of the operations.
Impact of changes in accounting policies described in Note 1.
As required by IAS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, policy changes were applied retrospectively, so changes were made in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Positions as at 1 January 2011 and 31 December 2011 and in the Consolidated Income Statement and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended 31 December 2011. The effects of these changes can be presented as follows:

Under the caption other non-current investments there is an amount of 33,716,476 euro (33,737,856 euro as at 31 December 2011 in the caption "Investments in current assets"), related to deposited amounts on an Escrow Account which are invested in investment funds with superior rating and guarantee contractual liabilities assumed by Sonae Investimentos which may arise from the sale of Sonae Distribuição Brasil,S.A. and for which provisions were recorded when applicable (Note 31 and 32).
Although in accordance with the deadlines contractually established, the Escrow Account should have already been released by the buyer, that didn't happen as there are some points of disagreement on the use of the Escrow Account, namely as to whether or not, to retain the Escrow Account for ongoing fiscal procedures that have not yet been decided (Note 32). It is the understanding of the Board of Directors, based on legal opinions of Brazilian and Portuguese lawyers that reason attends to the Company.
Other investments include investments in non-listed companies which fair values cannot be reliably measured. As so, these investments are recorded at cost net of any impairment losses.

Goodwill is allocated to each business segment, Food based retail and Specialised retail, being afterwards distributed by each homogenous group of cash generating unit, namely to each insignia within each segment, and each of the properties in case of Retail real estate segment.
Goodwill allocation to real estate is done by each existing real-estate at acquisition date.
Impairment tests on Goodwill are performed on an annual basis and if there is any indication of impairment loss.
For this purpose each retail segment, Specialised and Food, uses the result of the internal valuation of its business concepts, using annual planning methodologies, supported in business plans that consider cash flow projections for each unit which depend on properly supported detailed assumptions. These plans take into consideration the impact of the main actions that will be carried out by each business concept as well as a study of the resources allocation of the company.
The case scenarios are elaborated with an average cost of capital and with a growth rate of cash-flows in perpetuity that can be detailed as follows:
| 31 December 2012 | 31 December 2011 Restated | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| Specialised retail | 9% to 11% | ≤ 1% | 10% | 9% to 11% | ≤ 1% | 16% |
| Investment management | 8% to 10% | ≤ 1,5% | 5% | 8% to 9% | ≤ 1,5% | 9% |
* Specialized retail operating segment compound sales growth rates considered in case scenarios correspond to compound rates for a period of 5 years in 2011 and for a period of 10 years in 2012.
The recoverable value of cash generating units except on the specialised retail formats, is determined based on its value in use, which is calculated taking into consideration the last approved business plans which are prepared using cash flow projections for periods of 5 years. The specialised retail formats are based on its value in use, obtained from business plans with projection periods of 10 years. In comparison with 2011, the projection periods suffered an increase of 5 to 10 years, assuming that it is the most realistic and appropriate term for the implementation of the internationalization strategy of Sonae in the specialized retail segment, taking into account not only the nature of the products in this business (more discretionary in character) but also current macro-economic conditions and the limited access to new financing, which limit a faster internationalization process.

Loans granted to related parties mainly refer to MDS SGPS, SA (17,971,001 euro). These loans bear interests at usual market rates and do not have a defined maturity. The fair value of these loans is estimated to be similar to its carrying amount.
Most significant values included in "Trade accounts receivable and other debtors" refer to:
a) Amounts related with guarantees of lease contracts in group stores located in Spain, which have not matured until this date;
b) Amounts related to legal deposits made by a Brazilian subsidiary, for which are recorded the correspondent liabilities in the caption "Other non-current liabilities" (Note 26), with no defined maturity;
c) As a result of agreements signed in 2005 by former subsidiary - Sonae Distribuição Brazil, SA (sold to Wal-Mart in 2005) with Carrefour Comércio e Indústria Ltda, Sonae Investimentos assumed the responsibility to compensate Carrefour for the expenses that would arise from the 10 stores licensing process in the Brazilian state of São Paulo that were sold to that entity. During 2010, Carrefour triggered a bank warranty "on first demand" amounting to 25,340,145.80 Brazilian real (approximately 9.5 million euro) for alleged expenses incurred with the mentioned stores and that allegedly, arose from the need to remedy deficiencies cited by competent authorities for the licensing process. However no evidence of those expenses was presented to Sonae, or proof of necessity of carrying out such costs for the licensing process as established on the mentioned agreement.
It is the understanding of the Board of Directors and the Group attorneys that the amount paid will be recovered. The company has already started the legal proceedings against Carrefour Comércio e Indústria, Ltda. to recover the above mentioned amount. It's the Board of Directors and the Group attorneys understanding that the amount is recoverable, since Carrefour has never proved the existence of the costs that it claims and which validate the usage of the above mentioned warranty, or through the warranty expiration date (according with Brazilian law).
According to Group attorneys, the amount improperly received by Carrefour for which a reimbursement will be requested (25,340,145.80 Brazilian real), will earn interests at the SELIC rate, and it is the Board of Directors understanding that the legal proceedings will last up to 7 years.

(a) Includes, as at 31 December 2012, 76 million euro (72 million euro as at 31 December 2011) related to deferred tax assets for which the carry forward period hasn't started.
As at 31 December 2012 and 2011, deferred tax assets resulting from tax losses carried forward were assessed against each company's business plans, which are regularly updated, and available tax planning opportunities. Deferred tax assets have only been recorded to the extent that future taxable profits will arise which might be offset against available tax losses or against deductible temporary differences.
In the year ended 31 December 2008, deferred tax assets were recorded amounting to approximately 18.3 million euro (18.2 million euro as at 31 December 2011), in the Specialised Retail operating segment, relating to tax losses of the subsidiary Worten España, SA, generated during the year and in previous years, of which 11.8 million euro, the same amount in 31 December 2011, are related to tax losses generated prior to the acquisition date, and so affecting the calculation of the negative goodwill computed at that date. In subsequent financial years deferred tax assets were recorded relating to tax losses generated in the amount of 17.6 million euro (27.2 million euro in 2011) in Worten España, SA and 2.4 million euro (4.2 million euro in 2011) in Zippy España, SA recorded in Spanish income tax Group, as mentioned in the next paragraph. Additionally deferred tax assets of 14.2 million euro (14.2 million euro in 2011) were recorded by Sport Zone España, SA. The deferred tax assets are supported by the companies business plans that estimate it's fully recoverability. In Sport Zone España, SA the reporting period of tax losses is 18 years and for the rest of the Spanish companies mentioned above the carry forward period is not yet defined. It's the Board of Directors understanding that such deferred tax assets are fully recoverable.
As at 31 December 2012 deferred tax assets related to tax losses generated in current and previous years, by Modelo Continente Hipermercados, S.A. Spanish Branch, amount to 57.7 million euro (54.1 million euro as at 31 December 2011). The mentioned tax losses can be recovered within the Income Tax Group established in Spain, according to Spanish law. Modelo Continente Hipermercados, S.A. Spanish Branch, as at 31 December 2012 and 2011, was the dominant entity within the group of companies taxed in accordance with the Spanish regime for taxing groups of companies. It is the understanding of The Board of Directors, based on existing business plans, for that the mentioned deferred tax assets are recoverable.
The recoverability of the deferred tax assets mentioned above, regarding Sonae operations in Spain, is conditioned by the fulfillment of the 10 year business plans, approved by the Board of Directors for those markets which assume an increase in sales growth after 2016, as well as in the number of stores. These plans were also used in the impairment analysis of goodwill and other non-current assets.
Additionally Spanish law allows the annual deduction, for tax purposes, of 5% of goodwill recognized on the acquisition of foreign based companies before 21 December 2007, however in 2012 and 2013 this rate was reduced to 1%. Sonae, has accounted, within this scope, deferred tax liabilities relating to goodwill depreciation performed for tax purposes, generated with the acquisition to Continente Hipermercados (ex-Carrefour Portugal).
In 2010 and 2011, Spanish Tax authorities notified Modelo Continente S.A. Spanish Branch of a decrease in 2008 and 2009 tax losses incurred, amounting to approximately 23.3 million euro, challenging the deduction of Goodwill depreciation, generated on the acquisition of Continente Hipermercados for each of the mentioned years. That branch appealed to the proper Spanish Authorities (Tribunal Económico - Administrativo Central de Madrid) in 2010 and 2011 respectively, and it is the Board of Directors understanding that the decision will be favourable to the Group, thus maintaining the recognition of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities related with Goodwill. In 2012 the Company interposed an appeal to the National Court in Spain ("Audiência Nacional Espanha"), due to a decision opposite to the claims and estimates of the Company, by the Economic and Administrative Central Court of Madrid, for the notification for fiscal year of 2008. As at 31 December 2012, tax losses arising from the depreciation of Goodwill, including 2008, amount to 79.1 million euro (74.5 million euro as at 31 December 2011). The company maintains recorded, related to this subject, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities amounting to 23.7 million euro (22.3 million euro in December 2011).
As at 31 December 2012, there were tax losses carried forward, amounting to 54.7 euro (30.4 euro as at December 2011), for which no deferred tax asset were recognized for prudential reasons. These may be summarized as follows:

This provision is being used as costs are incurred, being made on base of current best estimate of costs to such liability and resulting in a significant number of civil lawsuits and labour and of limited value. The Group updated its estimate, following the results of the sixth data room conference process conducted with the buyer of the former subsidiary in Brazil.

| Sureties provided to subsidiaries (a) | 172,973,984 | 127,221,883 |
(a) Guarantees granted to the tax authority in favour of subsidiaries for the purpose of suspending tax processes
The amount of guarantees related to tax claims includes: 296.7 million euro (256.9 million euro as at 31 December 2011) related to appeals against additional corporate income tax assessments, as well as guarantees amounting to 166.4 million euro related to VAT proceedings (164.0 million euro as at 31 December 2011).
Food and specialized based retail subsidiaries of the Company, granted guarantees in favour of the Portuguese Tax Administration, associated with tax claims for VAT, amounting to 193.9 million euro (148.6 million euro as at 31 December 2011) related to the period from 2004 to 2008, for which the Company has presented, or has the intention of presenting, a tax appeal. Portuguese tax authorities claim that the Company should have invoiced VAT related to promotional discounts invoiced to suppliers which depend on the purchases made by the Group during the year, as it considers that the discounts correspond to services rendered by the company. Tax authorities also claim that the company should not have deducted VAT from discount vouchers used by its non-corporate clients.
In concern to the Guarantees granted the most relevant tax claims refer to: i) 60 million euro as a result of a tax appeal presented by Sonae concerning an additional tax assessment by Tax authorities, relating to 31 December 2005, following the correction of taxable income for that period as Tax authorities did not accept the recognition of tax losses incurred after the liquidation of a subsidiary of Sonae Investimentos, since it considered that the cover of losses in that subsidiary should not be part of the cost of acquisition of that investment, which is not in accordance with previous assessments of Tax Authorities; and II) the amount of 50 million euro, following a tax appeal presented by the Company concerning additional tax assessments made by Tax authorities, relating to 31 December 2002, which refer to the non-acceptance by Tax authorities of tax losses related to the sale and liquidation of a subsidiary of the Group.
The caption "Guarantees given on tax claims" also includes a granted guarantee on a tax claim of a Retail segment company in Brazil of approximately 27.1 million euro (65.6 million Brazilian real), which is being judged by tax court, and the difference refers to accruals, (65.6 million Brazilian real as at 31 December 2011).
In addition to the Guarantees disclosed above as a consequence of the sale of a subsidiary company in Brazil, Sonae guaranteed the buyer all the losses incurred by that company arising on unfavourable decisions not open for appeal, concerning tax lawsuits on transactions that took place before the sale date (13 December 2005) and that exceed 40 million euro. As at 31 December 2012, the amount claimed by the Brazilian Tax Authorities concerning the tax lawsuits still in progress, which the company's lawyers assess as having a high probability of loss plus the amounts already paid (26 million euro) related to programmes for the Brazilian State of tax recovery amount to near 39.3 million euro (39.3 million euro as at 31 December 2011).
Furthermore, there are other tax lawsuits totalling 61.3 million euro (57.3 million euro as at 31 December 2011) for which the Board of Directors, based on the lawyers' assessment, understands will not imply future losses to the old subsidiary.
No provision has been recognized to face up to risks arising from events related to guarantees given, as the Board of Directors considers that no liabilities will result to Sonae Investimentos.

SONAE INVESTIMENTOS, SGPS, SA, "the Company" or "Sonae Investimentos" it's a Portuguese Corporation, with headoffice in Rua João Mendonça nº 529, 4464-501 Senhora da Hora, Matosinhos, Portugal.
The Company's main activity is the management of shareholdings (Note 5).
The company financial statements are presented as required by Commercial Companies Code. According to Decree-Law 158/2009 of 13 July, the Company financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.
Consolidated financial statements are also presented in accordance with applicable legislation.
The significant accounting policies adopted in preparing the accompanying individual financial statements are as follows:
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the European Union. This standards were issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and interpretations issued by International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC") or by the previous Standing Interpretations Committee ("SIC"), that have been adopted by the European Union.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared from the books and accounting records on a going concern basis and under the historical cost convention, except for financial instruments which are stated at fair value.
Up to the approval date of these financial statements, the European Union endorsed standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions, some of which have become effective during the year 2012. These changes are presented in Note 2 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The adoption, during 2012 of the mentioned standards did not produce impacts on the Company financial statements, since they aren't applicable to the Individual financial statements of the Company.
Additionally there are standards that have been approved for adoption in the periods started at or after 1 January 2013, which were not adopted by the Company in advance. No material impacts in the individual financial statements of the company will arise from the adoption of these standards.
Tangible assets are recorded at acquisition cost net of depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation charges for the year are calculated on a straight line basis over the useful life of each asset in the caption Depreciation and amortisation.
The impairment losses in the realisable value of tangible assets are recorded in the year they arise in the caption of the Income Statement - "Provisions and impairment losses".
Intangible assets are stated at acquisition cost, net of amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets are only recognized if it is probable that future economic benefits will flow from them, if they are controlled by the Company and if their cost can be reliably measured.
Depreciation charges for the year are calculated on a straight line basis over the useful life of each asset in the caption Depreciation and amortization.
Borrowing costs are usually recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred on an accruals basis in accordance with effective interest rate method.
The Company classifies the financial instruments in the categories presented and conciliated with the statement of financial position disclosed in Note 4.
Equity investments in subsidiaries and associates are accounted for accordingly with IAS 27, at acquisition cost net of impairment losses.
Investments are classified into the following categories:
Held to maturity investments are classified as non-current assets unless they mature within 12 months of the statement of financial position date. Investments classified as held to maturity have defined maturities and the Company has the intention and ability to hold them until the maturity date.
The investments measured at fair value through profit or loss include the investments held for trading that the company acquires for sale in a short period of time, and are classified in the statement of financial position as current assets.
The Company classifies as available for sale those investments that are neither included as investments measured at fair value through profit or loss nor as investments held to maturity. These assets are classified as non-current assets, except if the sale is expected to occur within 12 months from the date of classification.
All purchases and sales of investments are recognized on the trade date, independently of the settlement date.
Investments are initially recorded at acquisition cost, which is the fair value of the consideration paid for them. In the case of Investments held to maturity or available for sale investments, transaction costs are included in the acquisition costs.
After its initial recording, investments measured at fair value through profit or loss and available for sale investments are subsequently carried at fair values, by reference to their quoted market value at statement of financial position date, without any deduction for transaction costs which may be incurred on sale. Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are stated at cost, less impairment losses.
Gains or losses arising from a change in fair value of available for sale investments are recognized directly in equity, under Fair value reserve, in the caption Other reserves, until the investment is sold or otherwise disposed of, or until it is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in equity is transferred to net profit or loss.
Gains or losses arising from a change in fair value of investments measured at fair value through profit or loss are recorded in the Income statement captions financial expenses or financial income.
Held to maturity investments are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate, net of capital reimbursements and interest income received.
Loans and accounts receivable are recorded at amortized cost using the effective rate method net of accumulated impairment losses, in order to reflect its realisable value.
Interest income is recognized by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables when the recognition of interest would be immaterial.
These financial instruments emerge when the Company provides money or services to its subsidiaries and associates with no intention of trading those assets.
Loans and receivables are recorded as current assets, except when its maturity is greater than 12 months from the statement of financial position date, situations when they are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are included in the captions presented in Note 4.
Receivables are stated at net realisable value corresponding to their nominal value less impairment losses, recorded under the caption "Provisions and impairment losses" in accounts receivable.
Impairment is recognized if there is objective and measurable evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred, the balance will not be fully received.
For financial assets carried at amortized cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate. If the receipt of the full amount is expected to be within one year the effect of the discount will be considered immaterial.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified and accounted for based on their contractual substance, independently from the legal form they assume.
f) Loans
Loans are recorded as liabilities at their nominal value, net of up-front fees and commissions related to the issuance of those instruments. Financial expenses are calculated based on the effective interest rate and are recorded in the income statement on an accruals basis, in accordance with the accounting policy defined in Note 2.7. The portion of the effective interest charge relating to up-front fees and commissions, if not paid in the period, is added to the book value of the loan.
Trade accounts payable are stated at their nominal value. There is no discount, as it is immaterial.
The Company uses derivatives in the management of its financial risks to hedge such risks. Derivatives are not used for trading purposes.
Derivatives classified as cash flow hedge instruments are used by the Company mainly to hedge interest rate risks on loans obtained. Conditions established for these cash flow hedge instruments are identical to those of the corresponding loans in terms of base rates, calculation rules, rate setting dates and repayment schedules of the loans and for these reasons they qualify as perfect hedges. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion of the hedge, if any, is recorded in the Income Statement under Financial Income or Financial Expenses.
The Company's criteria for classifying a derivative instrument as a cash flow hedge instrument include:
Cash flow hedge instruments used by the Company to hedge the exposure to changes in interest of its loans are initially accounted for at cost, if any which corresponds to its fair value, and subsequently adjusted to their corresponding fair value. Changes in fair value of these cash flow hedge instruments are recorded in equity under the caption Hedging reserves, included in the caption Reserves and Retained earnings, and then recorded in the income statement over the same period in which the hedged instrument is recognized in profit or loss.
Hedge accounting of derivative instruments is discontinued when the instrument matures or is sold. Whenever a derivative instrument can no longer be qualified as a hedging instrument, the fair value differences recorded in equity under the caption Hedging reserve included in the caption Reserves and Retained earnings, are transferred to profit or loss of the period or to the carrying amount of the asset that resulted from the hedged forecast transaction. Subsequent changes in fair value are recorded in the income statement.
The fair value of these instruments is estimated by the Company using specific software based on the discounted cash flow of the difference between the fixed interest rate of the fixed leg and the indexed variable interest rate inherent to the variable leg, through the use of interest rate curves taken from Bloomberg.
When embedded derivatives exist, they are accounted for as separate derivatives when the risks and the characteristics are not closely related to economic risks and characteristics of the host instruments, and this is not stated at fair value through profit or loss.
In specific situations, the Company hires exchange rate derivatives. In these circumstances, and although these derivatives are hired to hedge the risk associated with the variation of future cash flows, these derivatives are usually measured at fair value through the income statement.
Treasury shares are recorded at acquisition cost as a reduction to equity. Gains or losses arising from sales of treasury shares are directly recorded in other reserves.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash at bank, term deposits and other treasury applications which mature in less than three months and are subject to insignificant risk of change in value.
In the cash flows statement, cash and cash equivalents also include bank overdrafts, which are included in the statement of financial position caption of current bank loans.
The effective interest rate method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or liability and of allocating interest income or expense until the maturity of the financial instrument.
Financial assets, other than Investments measured at fair value through profit or loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each statement of financial position date.
Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been impacted.
For non-quoted equity instruments determining whether the investment is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the investment. The value in use calculation requires the entity to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise for the entity and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value.
For financial assets carried at amortized cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate.
For investments in subsidiaries (equity investments and loans granted to subsidiaries, jointly controlled companies and associated companies) the impairment analysis is based on the fair value estimate, based on discounted cash flows or based on its net asset value as applicable.
The above mentioned estimate is based on the fair value computation of the value in use of its holdings by means of discounted cash flow models, whenever there is an indication that the asset might be impaired, namely from the distribution of dividends by the mentioned entities.
It is the Board of Directors understanding that the use of the above mentioned methodology is adequate to conclude on the eventual existence of financial investments impairment as it incorporates the best available information as at the date of the financial statements.
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and that decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.
In respect of equity investments classified as available for sale, impairment losses previously recognized through profit or loss are not reversed. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognized directly in equity.
Contingent liabilities are not recorded in the financial statements. Instead they are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, unless the probability of a cash outflow is remote, in which case, no disclosure is made.
Contingent assets are not recorded in the financial statements but disclosed when future economic benefits are probable.
Revenue from services rendered is recognized in the income statement in the period they are performed.
Dividends are recognized as income in the year they are attributed to the shareholders.
Income and expenses are recorded in the year to which they relate, independently of the date of the corresponding payment or receipt. Income and expenses for which their real amount is not known are estimated.
Other current assets and other current liabilities include income and expenses of the reporting year which will only be invoiced in the future. Those captions also include receipts and payments that have already occurred but that correspond to income or expenses of future years, when they will be recognized in the income statement.
Events after the statement of financial position date that provide additional information about conditions that existed at the balance sheet date (adjusting events), are reflected in the financial statements. Events after the statement of financial position date that are non-adjusting events are disclosed in the notes when material.
The most significant accounting estimates reflected in the financial statements are as follows:
Estimates used are based on the best information available during the preparation of these financial statements and are based on the best knowledge of past and present events. Although future events, are not controlled by the Company are not foreseeable, some could occur and have impact on the estimates. Therefore and due to this uncertainty the outcome of the transactions being estimated may differ from the initial estimate. Changes to the estimates used by management that occur after the approval date of these consolidated financial statements, will be recognized in net income prospectively, in accordance with IAS 8.
The main estimates and assumptions in relation to future events included in the preparation of these financial statements are disclosed in the correspondent notes, if applicable.
Share-based payments result from deferred performance bonus plans that are referenced to the evolution of the Sonae, SGPS, SA shares' price (parent company of Sonae Investimentos, SGPS, SA).
The value of these responsibilities is determined at the time of assignment (usually in March of each year) and subsequently updated at the end of each reporting period depending on the number of shares allotted and the fair value of the reporting date. The responsibility is recorded on staff costs and other current liabilities, linearly between the attribution date and the vesting date, in proportion to the time between those dates.
Sonae Investimentos is taxed in accordance with Special Regime of Taxing Groups of Companies (Parent company). Each company included in this regime records income tax for the year in its individual accounts in the caption "Group companies". When a subsidiary contributes with a tax loss, it reflects, in its individual accounts, the amount of tax corresponding to the loss to be compensated by the profits of the other companies covered by this regime.
Deferred taxes are calculated using the statement of financial position liability method, reflecting the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated and annually remeasured using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted and therefore expected to apply in the periods when the temporary differences are expected to reverse.
Deferred tax assets are recognized only when it is probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available against which the deferred tax assets can be used, or when taxable temporary differences are recognized and expected to reverse in the same period. At each statement of financial position date an assessment of the deferred tax assets recognized is made, being reduced whenever their future use is no longer probable.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded in the income statement, except if they relate to items directly recorded in equity. In these cases the corresponding deferred tax is recorded in Equity.
Risk management general principles are approved by the Board of Directors, and its implementation is supervised by the Group's finance department.
The interest and exchange rate risk have a decisive importance in what concerns market risk management.
Sonae Investimentos exposure to the interest rate risk arises mainly from the long term loans which bear interests indexed to Euribor.
The interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on the following assumptions:
Changes in market interest rates affect the interest income or expense of variable interest financial instruments (the interest payments of which are not designated as hedged items of cash flow hedges against interest rate risks). As a consequence, they are included in the calculation of income-related sensitivities;
Changes in market interest rates only affect interest income or expense in relation to financial instruments with fixed interest rates if these are recognized at their fair value. As such, all financial instruments with fixed interest rates that are carried at amortised cost are not subject to interest rate risk as defined in IFRS 7;
In the case of fair value hedges designed for hedging interest rate risks, when the changes in the fair values of the hedged item and the hedging instrument attributable to interest rate movements are offset almost completely in the income statement in the same period, these financial instruments are also not exposed to interest rate risk;
Changes in the market interest rate of financial instruments that were designated as hedging instruments in a cash flow hedge (to hedge payment fluctuations resulting from interest rate movements) affect the hedging reserve in equity and are therefore taken into consideration in the equity-related sensitivity calculation with impact in equity (other reserves);
Changes in the fair values of derivative financial instruments and other financial assets and liabilities are estimated by discounting the future cash flows to net present values using appropriate market rates prevailing at the year end, and assuming a parallel shift in interest rate curves;
For the purposes of sensitivity analysis, such analysis is performed based on all financial instruments outstanding during the year.
Under these assumptions, if interest rates of euro denominated financial instruments had been 75 basis points higher, the consolidated net profit before tax for the period ended as at 31 December 2012 would decrease by approximately 1.8 million euro (1.1 million euro as at 31 December 2011), considering the contractual fixing dates and excluding other effects arising from the company operations.
The impact on the financial statements of changes in exchange rate is immaterial, as the most part of the assets and liabilities are denominated in euro.
The purpose of liquidity risk management is to ensure, at all times, that the group has the financial capacity to fulfill its commitments as they become due and to carry on its business activities and strategy, through the management of the trade off cost and maturity of debt.
Sonae Investimentos is primarily exposed to credit risk in its dealings with financing companies in which it participates.
Sonae Investimentos is also exposed to the credit risk in its relationship with financial institutions, in result of bank deposits, debt instruments available facilities, derivates, among others.
The credit risk is limited to financial institutions, by risk concentration management and by a selection of counterparties, which have a high national and international prestige and based on their respective rating notations taking into account the nature, maturity and size of the operations.
