CONSOLIDATED MANAGEMENT REPORT

1. SUMMARY OF ACTIVITY

Despite the coronavirus pandemic, in the second quarter of 2021 the world economy consolidated the growth observed in the previous three months. This reflected the lifting of confinement measures and expectations of a robust recovery in economic activity. Financial markets evolved positively, with historic highs in some segments.

COVID-19 vaccination programmes accelerated during the period, especially in western countries. Israel, the UK and the US led the vaccination effort. Europe remained slightly behind, but its performance gradually improved towards the end of the quarter as new variants and infectious episodes appeared in different regions. Internationally, the situation varies from region to region in this regard, being unfavourable in most of the rest of the world, where immunisation programmes have been significantly slower.

Economic growth reflected these developments, as well as comparison with the same period of the previous year, when large areas of activity were heavily penalised. The quarter was also characterised by growing concerns about the impact of higher energy, shipping and electronic component costs on inflation, augmented by breakdowns in, or the reduced efficiency of international supply chains. This continuous stopping and starting led to a serious destabilisation of supply chains.

The US economy is estimated to have grown by about 9.0% in the second quarter compared with the same period of 2020 (6.6% compared with first quarter of 2021), potentially having recovered fully from the losses caused by the pandemic. The Eurozone economy grew by about 1.3% in the second quarter after contracting in the first three months. The year-on-year comparisons are expressive as they reflect the contrast with a period of 2020 when business activity was severely limited.

For Corticeira Amorim, as for economic agents in general, the second quarter of 2021 was the first to be comparable with a quarter of the previous year that was wholly impacted by the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Group's increase in consolidated sales in the second quarter, +24.4%, demonstrates a recovery from the loss of sales recorded in 2020. In the first half, the increase in sales was 10.7% (remember that the sales decreased 2.0% in the first quarter). In relation to the same period of 2019 sales were up 5.1%.

Corticeira Amorim's sales at the end of the semester totalled €433.3 million. This increase reflected the early impact of a reduction in the restrictive measures implemented by different countries to contain the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, restrictions that had profound consequences for global economies and consumption patterns. The climate remains uncertain, however, and is only likely to stabilise when the ongoing vaccination processes have been shown to be effective.

The exchange rate effect (related to the depreciation of the US dollar) has penalised sales -excluding this effect, sales would have increased 12.5% in the first half.

All Business Units (BUs) posted an increase in sales, with the Raw Materials BU (+0.6%), which mainly sells within the Group, being the only one that showed little growth compared with the same period of the previous year. The Cork Stoppers (+11.3%), Composite Cork (+14.9%), Floor and Wall Coverings (+7.7%) and Insulation (+20.6%) BUs succeeded in reversing the downward sales trend observed at the end of 2020 and achieved robust growth.

EBITDA increased 17.2% to €77.3 million, resulting in an EBITDA-sales ratio of 17.8%, a significant increase in comparison with the same period of 2020 (16.8%). Despite the favourable impact of a decrease in the price of cork used in manufacturing, a more positive evolution of evolution of the ratio was limited by the exchange rate effect, lower cork yields, a less favourable product mix, higher prices for some non-cork raw materials and a significant increase in transport costs.

After results attributable to non-controlling interests, net income totalled €39.4 million, an increase of 15.1% compared with the same period of 2020.

2. OPERATING ACTIVITIES - FIRST HALF 2021

Sales by the Raw Materials BU were stable (+0.6%) compared with the same period of 2020. In the context of significant sales growth for the Group's downstream BUs, this stability mainly reflected a realignment of inventory levels by those BUs as well as sales to third parties.

EBITDA totalled €9.5 million, an increase of 8.1% compared with the same period of 2020 (€8.7 million). The increase in the EBITDA margin (from 8.7% to 9.4%) reflected a reduction in the consumption price of cork and increased efficiency (including an increase in volumes produced). This more than offset the increase in costs (namely electricity, transport, maintenance and repairs).

The 2021 cork purchasing campaign is proceeding as planned in terms of prices and volumes, with no significant impact resulting from the pandemic. Price adjustments were limited after two years of significant changes. In comparative terms, the purchase price of better quality cork increased.

The important acquisition of 50% of Cold River's Homestead, S.A., which owns a group of assets related to Herdade do Rio Frio, was made in order to continue the Group's Forest Intervention Project. The strategic objectives of the project are to ensure the maintenance, preservation and enhancement of cork oak forests and guarantee the continuous production of high quality cork.

Sales by the Cork Stoppers BU totalled €311.3 million in the first half, up 11.3% on the same period of 2020 and accounting for 70% of Corticeira Amorim's total consolidated sales. Sales in the second quarter increased 26.7%. At constant exchange rates, the increase would have been 28.5%.

The BU benefited from a strong recovery in volume sales, which was the most important driver of overall sales growth. Sales increased in all segments and in all geographic regions, with Europe being the main driver of growth. Sales of Neutrocork stoppers continued to grow significantly following strong growth in 2020.

The BU's EBITDA rose to €58.5 million (+7.7% y-o-y). The EBITDA margin decreased to 18.8% (1H20: 19.4%). Sales benefited from volume growth and more favourable cork consumption prices. The weakness of the dollar, the prices of some non-cork raw materials, transport costs and lower grinding yields were the main causes of the decrease in the EBITDA-sales ratio. At constant exchange rates, the EBITDA margin would have been 19.5%, slightly above that of the same period of 2020.

Sales by the Floor and Wall Covering BU totalled €63.5 million, an increase of 7.7% compared with the same period in 2020. Although sales of trading products grew faster than those of manufactured products, the Amorim

WISE product range and the BU's recently launched products continued to perform positively, the former with sales of €6.9 million (1H20: €6.3 million) and the latter with sales totalling €6.8 million (1H20: €5.3 million).

The North American and Scandinavian markets continued to perform positively. Germany was negatively impacted by company closures made at the beginning of the year as a result of measures to combat COVID-19.

The BU's EBITDA totalled €4.0 million, up from €1.0 million in the same period of 2020. The EBITDA margin rose from 1.8% to 6.3% over the same period. A consistent reduction in operating costs, the result of efforts to restructure and lower the break-even level, together with a reduction in the purchasing price of cork, supported an increase in the BU's profitability, despite a significant increase in transport costs and in the prices of some noncork raw materials. The decrease in impairment levels is another positive factor that merits highlighting.

Sales by the Composite Cork BU totalled €57.7 million, an increase of 14.9% compared with the same period of 2020 (€50.2 million). Sales grew in most markets, driven mainly by a recovery in segments that were heavily penalised in 2020 (due to the temporary closure of customer operations as a result of the pandemic) and a return to normal activity following the turbulence caused by the SAP implementation.

Sales growth was strongest in the Footwear, Cork Specialists and Heavy Construction segments, which had been significantly penalised in 2020 by the temporary closure of some of the BU's customers.

The recently created joint ventures (Amorim Sports and Corkeen) along with new products and applications continued to show dynamic growth, contributing sales totalling €2.7 million and €4.8 million respectively.

First-half EBITDA totalled €5.2 million. The EBITDA margin rose to 9.0% (1H20: 8.1%). Despite the unfavourable exchange rate environment and a significant increase in the cost of some non-cork raw materials, the improvement in profitability reflects robust sales growth, the lower cost of cork used in manufacturing and better grinding yields, At constant exchange rates, the BU's sales would have increased by 18.8% and the EBITDA margin would have been 12.1%.

Sales by the Insulation BU totalled €7.2 million, an increase of 20.6% compared with the same period of 2020 mainly driven by an increase in sales volumes. US dollar depreciation negatively impacted sales. Excluding this effect, sales would have grown 21.4%. Turnover was driven by a recovery of activity in the BU's most important markets, namely France, Portugal and Italy.

EBITDA totalled €1.4 million (1H20: -€13,000) and the EBITDA-sales ratio was 19.2% (1H20: -0.2%). In addition to the one-off impact of pile closures, other factors contributing to this growth included a reduction in the cost of cork used in manufacturing, improved industrial efficiency, lower operating costs and a reduction in impairments.

3. CONSOLIDATED PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT AND FINANCIAL POSITION

The increase in the Group's sales did not result from the change in the consolidation perimeter. Corticeira Amorim's sales in the first half of 2020 were significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. As mentioned above, the first half of 2021 saw a recovery from the sales losses verified in the same period of 2020, as well as a 5.1% increase compared with the first six months of 2019.

The change in the gross profit margin percentage, which decreased from 52% to 50%, reflects the unfavourable exchange rate effect and an increase in the consumption price of non-cork materials, factors that were partially offset by the reduction in cost of cork used in manufacturing.

In terms of operating costs, the increase of about €2.2 million in staff costs (+3.0%) compared with the same period of 2020 was mainly due to an increase in the average number of male and female employees in response to increased activity. External supply and services costs remained practically unchanged (+0.2%). The increase in transport costs (+6.3%) was offset by a reduction in energy costs (-2.3%). The reversal of impairments, which had a positive impact of €2.6 million, mainly involved accounts receivable, particularly at the Amorim Cork Flooring and Amorim Cork Italy subsidiaries.

In terms of other operating income/cost items that impact EBITDA, a favourable balance of about €0.6 million was recorded. The impact of exchange rate differences on assets receivable and liabilities payable, together with the respective foreign exchange hedging measures included under other operating income/gains was negative in the amount of about €0.7 million (1H20: +€0.1 million).

EBITDA increased 17.2% to €77.3 million. The EBITDA-sales ratio was 17.8% (1H20: 16.8%).

No non-recurring earnings were recorded in this six-month period. In the first half of 2020, non-recurring costs totalling €1.7 million, resulting from compensation for restructuring operations, were recognised.

Financial results fell 12.6% compared with the same period of 2020, reflecting a reduction in average indebtedness.

Income from associate companies totalled €2.2 million. The increase compared with the same period of 2020 (1H20: €1.3 million) resulted mainly from an increase in the contribution made by Vinolok (from €1.0 million to €1.4 million).

As normal, it will only be possible to estimate the amount of 2021 investment tax benefits (RFAI and SIFIDE) at the end of the year. As a result, the potential tax gain will only be recorded at the closing of accounts for 2021. In the first half of 2021 the definitive decisions relating to SIFIDE benefits in 2019 were announced and the final amount of tax due for 2020 calculated.

After tax on earnings of €15.7 million and the allocation of profits to non-controlling interests, total net income attributable to Corticeira Amorim shareholders totalled €39.4 million, an increase of 15.1% compared with earnings of €34.3 million in the first half of 2020.

Earnings per share were €0.296, compared with €0.258 for the first half of 2020.

In regard to the Group's financial position, total net assets increased €68 million in comparison with December 2020. In terms of individual items, the increases in the following items: customers (€50 million), cash and cash equivalents (€33 million), other debtors (€19 million) and financial holdings (€18 million) merit highlighting. The increase in the investments in associates item was mainly due to the acquisition of 50% of Cold River's Homestead, S.A., as previously mentioned. Inventories decreased by €47 million, reflecting the implementation of measures to improve inventory management and the impact of the reduction in the price of cork in recent purchasing campaigns. Changes in the remaining items were residual.

The change in equity reflects the net earnings for the period (€39.4 million), the payment of dividends (€24.6 million) and the change in non-controlling interests (€1.8 million).

Liabilities increased by €50 million. Interest-bearing loans decreased €24 million. Other items of note were the increases in Suppliers (€51 million), which reflects a partial seasonal effect, and income tax (€11 million).

At the end of June 2021, the Group's shareholder equity totalled €595 million. The financial autonomy ratio rose to 55.4%.

Corticeira Amorim's robust balance sheet, together with the support of financial institutions, ensure an adequate and balanced capital structure.

5. OUTLOOK FOR THE SECOND HALF

Compared with the first quarter of 2020, which was practically unaffected by the pandemic, Corticeira Amorim's activities were significantly impacted in the first three months of 2021.

In terms of expenditure on transport and subsidiary materials, despite the expectation of a relief from increase prices pressure, a return to previously verified levels is not expected. As it is not expected that, in the short term, the upward trend in prices in the energy market, which was accentuated at the end of the semester, will be reversed. The magnitude of this increase could penalize output levels for the second half of the year.

As previously mentioned, a clear tendency towards a recovery in the Group's activity was observed in the second quarter of 2021. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the outlook for the remaining quarters of 2021 is for a continuing recovery, although some constraints may arise from the need to implement additional containment measures due to new variants of the virus as well as the evolution and possible extension of ongoing vaccination processes.

6. BUSINESS RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Over the course of its 150-year history, Corticeira Amorim has successfully confronted several profound social transformations. The current COVID-19 pandemic is the most recent of these challenges and, as always, the company will seek to turn challenges into opportunities. Corticeira Amorim, like all other economic agents, continues to operate in the uncertain economic climate that is affecting global markets:

The risks and uncertainties described in the annual report continue to apply. At the end of the first half of 2021, the following aspects should be highlighted:

  • Having secured the necessary cork supplies for the coming year, Corticeira Amorim will continue to respond without interruption to the needs of its customers across the world by at all times adopting the best and most appropriate practices. The company's diversification policy and practices (not a single product, not a single market, not a single currency) ensure additional balance;

-The exchange rate volatility that affected the euro and the dollar in the first half of 2021 is a source of uncertainty that continues to affectthe prospects for Corticeira Amorim's performance.

Corticeira Amorim's activities are exposed to a variety of financial risks: market risks (including exchange rate and interest rate risks), credit risks, liquidity risks and capital risks. The Company's objectives and policies in terms of managing these risks, including the coverage policies for each of the main forecast transaction categories for which coverage accounting is applied, and the exposure to pricing, credit, liquidity and cash flow risks are duly set out in the Note on "Managing Financial Risks" included in the Notes to the Consolidated Accounts.

7. OWN SECURITIES

During the first half of 2021, CORTICEIRA AMORIM did not acquire or dispose of any treasury shares.

Except when mentioned, all monetary values are stated in thousand euros (Thousand euros = K euros = K€).

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021 were prepared using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, and include the statement of financial position, the income statement, the income statement and other comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the condensed statement of cash flows, as well as the selected explanatory notes. The remaining notes were excluded because they have not suffered any changes in their standards which may affect the understanding of the financial statements.

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of CORTICEIRA AMORIM are consistent with those used in the preparation of the financial statements presented for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Changes in accounting policies and disclosures

The standards and interpretations that became effective as of 1 January 2021 are as follows:

  • IFRS 4 (amendment), 'Insurance contracts deferral of IFRS 9'. This amendment addresses the temporary accounting consequences of the different effective dates of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and the forthcoming IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts. In particular, the amendments to IFRS 4 extend the expiry date of the temporary exemption from applying IFRS 9 until 2023 in order to align the effective date of IFRS 9 with the new IFRS 17.
  • IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 (amendment) 'Interest rate benchmark (IBOR) reform – phase 2'. These amendments address issues that arise during the reform of an interest rate benchmark, including the replacement of one benchmark with an alternative one, providing exemptions like: i) changes to designations and hedging documentation; ii) amounts accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve; iii) assessment of retrospective effectiveness on a hedge relationship under IAS 39; iv) amendments to hedge relationships for groups of items; v) presumption that an alternative benchmark rate designated as a non-contractually specified risk component is separately identifiable and qualifies as a hedged risk; and vi) update the effective interest rate, with no gain or loss recognised, for financial instruments measured at amortised cost with changes in the contractual cash flows as a result of IBOR reform, including leases that are indexed to an IBOR.

These standards and amendments had no material impact on Corticeira Amorim's consolidated financial statements.

The standards (new and amended) published, the application of which is mandatory for economic periods beginning after January 1, 2021, already endorsed by the European Union, are as follows:

  • IAS 16 (amendment), 'Proceeds before intended use' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022). This amendment changes the accounting treatment of the proceeds obtained from the sale of products that resulted from the production test phase of property, plant and equipment, prohibiting their deduction to the acquisition cost of assets. This amendment is applied retrospectively without restating comparatives.
  • IAS 37 (amendment), 'Onerous Contracts Cost of Fulfilling a Contract' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022). This amendment specifies that when assessing whether a contract is onerous or not, only expenses directly related to the performance of the contract, such as incremental costs related to direct labour and materials and the allocation of other

expenses directly related to the allocation of depreciation expenses of tangible assets used to carry out the contract, can be considered. This amendment must be applied to contracts that, at the beginning of the first annual reporting period to which the amendment is applied, still include contractual obligations to be satisfied, without restating comparatives.

  • Annual Improvements 2018 - 2020. (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022). The 2018-2020 annual improvements impact: IFRS 1, IFRS 9, IFRS 16 and IAS 41.
  • IFRS 3 (amendment), 'Reference to the Conceptual framework' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 June 2022. This amendment updates the references to the Conceptual Framework in the text of IFRS 3, without changing the accounting requirements for business combinations. This amendment also clarifies the accounting treatment to be given to contingent liabilities and liabilities under IAS 37 and IFRIC 21, incurred separately versus within a business combination. This amendment is applied prospectively.

No material impacts on Corticeira Amorim's consolidated financial statements are expected from the application of these standards and amendments.

The standards (new and amended) published, the application of which is mandatory for economic periods beginning after January 1, 2021, but which the European Union has not yet endorsed, are as follows:

  • IFRS 16 (amendment), 'Leases COVID-19 related rent concessions beyond 30 June 2021' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 April 2021). This amendment extends the date of application of the IFRS 16 – 'Leases – COVID-19 related rent concessions' amendment from 30 June 2021 to 30 June 2022. The conditions required to apply the practical expedient remain unchanged, such that: i) if the lessee already applied the 2020 practical expedient it is required to continue to apply the practical expedient consistently, to all lease contracts with similar characteristics and in similar circumstances; and ii) If the lessee did not apply the 2020 practical expedient to eligible lease concessions, it is prohibited from applying the extension of the practical expedient, as per this amendment. This amendment is applied retrospectively with the impacts reflected as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings of the annual reporting period in which the lessee applies this amendment for the first time.
  • IAS 1 (amendment), 'Presentation of financial statements classification of liabilities' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023). This amendment intends to clarify that liabilities are classified as either current or non-current balances depending on the rights that an entity has to defer its payment, at the end of each reporting period. The classification of liabilities is not affected by the entity's expectations (the assessment should determine whether a right exists, but should not consider whether or not the entity will exercise that right), or by events occurring after the reporting date, such as the non-compliance with a given "covenant". This amendment also introduces a new definition of "settlement" of a liability. This amendment is applied retrospectively.
  • IAS 1 (amendment), 'Disclosure of accounting policies' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023). Amendment to the requirement to disclose the accounting policies based on "material" instead of "significant". The amendment specifies that an accounting policy information is expected to be material if, in its absence, the users of the financial statements would be unable to understand other material information in those same financial statements. Immaterial accounting policy information need not be disclosed. The IFRS Practice Statement 2 was also amended to provide guidance for the application of the concept of material" to accounting policy disclosures.
  • IFRS 17 (new), 'Insurance contracts' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023). This new standard replaces IFRS 4 and applies to all entities issuing insurance contracts, reinsurance contracts and investment contracts with discretionary participation characteristics. IFRS 17 is based on the current measurement of technical liabilities at each reporting date. The current measurement can be based on a general model "building block approach" or a simplified one

"premium allocation approach". The "building block approach" is based on discounted, probabilityweighted cash flows, a risk adjustment and a contractual service margin ('CSM'), which represents the unearned profit of the contract. Subsequent changes in estimated cash flows are adjusted against the contractual service margin, unless it becomes negative. IFRS 17 is applied retrospectively.

  • IFRS 17 (amendment), 'Insurance contracts' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023). This amendment includes specific changes in eight areas of IFRS 17, such as: i) scope; ii) level of aggregation of insurance contracts; iii) recognition; iv) measurement; v) modification and derecognition; vi) presentation of the Statement of Financial Position; vii) recognition and measurement of the Income statement; and viii) disclosures. This amendment also includes clarifications, which aim to simplify some of the requirements of this standard and ease transition..
  • IAS 8 (amendment), 'Disclosure of accounting estimates' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023). Introduction of the concept of accounting estimate and the way it is distinct from changes to accounting policies. The accounting estimates are defined as corresponding to monetary amounts that are subject to measurement uncertainty, used to achieve an accounting policy's objective(s).
  • IAS 12 (amendment), 'Deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023). IAS 12 will require entities to recognise deferred tax on specific transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to equal amounts of taxable and deductible temporary differences. These applies to the recognition of: i) right-of-use assets and lease liabilities; and ii) decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities, and the corresponding amounts recognised as part of the cost of the related asset, when not relevant for tax purposes. Such temporary differences are no longer subject to the initial recognition exemption for deferred taxes. The cumulative effect of initially applying the amendment is recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other component of equity, as appropriate) at the earliest comparative period presented.

3.FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Corticeira Amorim's activity is exposed to a variety of financial risks inherent to its functions, so its monitoring and mitigation is carried out throughout the year. The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to contain it, had a significant impact on the financial risks to which Corticeira Amorim may be subject, forcing it to strengthen its monitoring and control.

Market risk

Regarding market risk, although impacted by the pandemic (exchange rate risk, interest rate and raw material prices), were not significantly affected by the current context, with the follow-up procedures reported on December 31, 2020. The volatility of international markets they require scrupulous compliance with the procedures that were already defined, in order to avoid the possible impact of adverse events.

Credit risk

In terms of credit risk, there were no significant changes in the procedures adopted, reinforcing the collection measures that existed previously. Corticeira Amorim is attentive to the issue of customer payments of accounts receivable, but in a universe of almost 30,000 customers worldwide, the risk is significantly shared. Credit risk is naturally reduced due to the dispersion of sales by a very high number of customers, spread across all continents, with no one representing more than 2% of total sales.

Customer credit risk is assessed by the Financial Departments of the operating companies, considering the history of the commercial relationship, their financial situation, as well as other information that may be obtained through Corticeira Amorim's business network. Established credit limits are regularly reviewed and revised if necessary.

Corticeira Amorim's cash and cash equivalents is spread over another 90 subsidiaries. At the level of credit risk quality, associated with Cash and cash equivalents, on June 30, 2021, Corticeira Amorim selected (a) financial institutions whose rating does not compromise the realization of these assets. It should be noted that of the total cash and cash equivalents (103.7 M €), around 67.4 M € are deposited in 3financial institutions (one with public capital and two with private capital) with the following ratings: Moody's: P-3, P-2 e P-2; Fitch Ratings: F3, F2 e F2; DBRS Morning Star: R-1.

Liquidity risk

CORTICEIRA AMORIM financial department regularly analyses future cash flows so that it can deliver enough liquidity for the group to provide operating needs, and also to comply with credit lines payments. Excess of cash is invested in interest bearing short-term deposits. This police offer the necessary flexibility to conduct its business.

Liquidity risk hedging is achieved by the existence of non-used credit line facilities and, eventually bank deposits. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Corticeira Amorim reinforced those lines and programs that were previously available and contracted new financing. Accordingly, Corticeira Amorim ended the semester with unused credit lines and commercial paper issuance programs totaling € 222 million (on December 31, 2020 the comparable figure was € 261 million). If we add Cash and Cash Equivalents, the Liquidity Reserve at the end of the semester was 326 M € (331 M € on 31 December 2020).

The COVID-19 pandemic is not expected to threaten Corticeira Amorim's liquidity.

Capital risk

CORTICEIRA AMORIM key objective is to assure business continuity, delivering a proper return to its shareholders and the correspondent benefits to its remaining stakeholders. A careful management of the capital employed in the business, using the proper combination of capital in order to reduce its costs, obtains the fulfilment of this objective. Corticeira Amorim is a solid company with an appropriate and balanced capital structure (Equity/Assets ratio at 30 June 2021 of 55.4%), responsible for an activity that is fundamental to the sustainability of the whole cork industry. Without the cork stoppers produced by Corticeira Amorim, thousands of wineries and bottlers would not be able to operate in the most varied geographical areas.

In order to achieve the proper combination of capital employed, the Board can obtain from the General Shareholders Meeting the approval of the necessary measures, namely adjusting the dividend pay-out ratio, the treasury stock, raising capital through new shares issue, sale of assets or other type of measures.

The key indicator for the said combination is the Equity/Assets ratio. CORTICEIRA AMORIM establishes as a target a level of not less than 40% of Equity/Assets ratio attending the company features and of the economic sector that she belongs.

Financial assets and liabilities fair value

The Group measures part of its financial assets and liabilities at fair value at the reference date of the financial statements. Derivative financial instruments are included in the categories mentioned above. The derivatives used by CORTICEIRA AMORIM have no public quotation because they are not traded in an open market (over the counter derivatives).

According to the accounting standards, a fair value hierarchy is established that classifies three levels of data to be used in measurement techniques at fair value of financial assets and liabilities:

Level 1 data – public quotation (non-adjusted) in liquid markets for comparable assets or liabilities;

Level 2 data – different data of public quotation observable for the asset or the liability, directly or indirectly;

Level 3 data – non observable data for the assets or the liability. During the year, there were no transfers between the levels mentioned above.

As of June 30, 2021, derivative financial instruments recognised as assets in the consolidated statement of financial position rise 87K€ as asset (Dec. 30, 2020: 1,973K€) and 835K€ as liabilities (Dec. 30, 2020: 164 K€), as stated in notes 15 and 21.

CORTICEIRA AMORIM uses forward outrights and options to hedge exchange rate risk, as shown below. Evaluating exchange rate hedge instruments requires the utilisation of observable inputs (level 2). Fair value is calculated using a proprietary model of CORTICEIRA AMORIM, developed by Reuters, using discounted cash flows method for forwards outrights. As for options, it is used the Black & Scholes model.

The only financial liability with level 3 corresponds to the agreement to acquire additional stake in subsidiaries, whose conditions are described in note 21.

The main inputs used in the valuation are: forward exchange rate curve and currency volatility estimates.

Exchange rate contracts

As of June 30, 2021, options contracts and forward outright related with sales currencies were used in CORTICEIRA AMORIM transactions:

It is expected that hedged highly probable transactions in foreign currencies occur during the second half of 2021. The corresponded value recognised in equity as hedge accounting will be recorded in income statement in that same period.

The amount recognised in comprehensive income statement as change in derivative financial instruments fair value reached -569 thousand euros (1H20: -66 thousand euros).

4.CRITICAL ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires the Group's management to make judgments and estimates that affect the statement of financial position and the reported results. These estimates are based on the best information and knowledge about past and/or present events and on the operations that the Company considers it may implement in the future. However, at the date of completion of such operations, their results may differ from these estimates.

Changes to these estimates that occur after the date of approval of the consolidated financial statements will be corrected in the income statement in a prospective manner, in accordance with IAS 8 - "Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors".

The estimates and assumptions that imply a greater risk of giving rise to a material adjustment in assets and liabilities are described below:

- Entities included in the consolidation perimeter

To determine the entities to be included in the consolidation perimeter, the Group assesses the extent to which it is exposed, or has rights, to variability in return from its involvement with that entity and can take possession of them through the power it holds over this entity.

The decision that an entity must be consolidated by the Group requires the use of judgment, estimates, and assumptions to determine the extent to which the Group is exposed to return variability and the ability to take possession of them through its power.

Other assumptions and estimates could lead to the Group's consolidation perimeter being different, with direct impact on the consolidated financial statements.

- Impairment of non-current assets, excluding goodwill

The determination of a possible impairment loss can be triggered by the occurrence of various events, such as the availability of future financing, the cost of capital or other market, economic and legal changes or changes with an adverse effect on the technological environment, many of which are beyond the Group's control. The identification and assessment of impairment indicators, the estimation of future cash flows, and the calculation of the recoverable value of assets involve a high degree of judgment by the Board.

- Impairment of goodwill

Goodwill is annually subjected to impairment tests or whenever there are indications of a possible loss of value in accordance with the criteria described in Note 2 b). The recoverable values of the cash-generating units to which goodwill is allocated are determined based on the calculation of current use values. These calculations require the use of estimates by management.

- Intangible and tangible assets

The life of an asset is the period during which the Company expects that an asset will be available for use and this should be reviewed at least at the end of each financial year. The determination of the useful lives of assets, the amortisation/depreciation method to be applied, and the estimated losses resulting from the replacement of equipment before the end of its useful life due to technological obsolescence is crucial in determining the amount of amortisation/depreciation to be recognised in the consolidated income statement each period.

These three parameters are defined using management's best estimates for the assets and businesses concerned, and taking account of the practices adopted by companies in the sectors in which the Group operates.

- Provisions

The Group periodically reviews any obligations arising from past events, which should be recognised or disclosed. The subjectivity involved in determining the probability and amount of internal resources required to meet obligations may give rise to significant adjustments, either due to changes in the assumptions made, or due to the future recognition of provisions previously disclosed as contingent liabilities.

- Deferred income tax assets

Deferred income tax assets are recognised only when there is strong assurance that there will be future taxable income available to use the temporary differences or when there are deferred tax liabilities whose reversal is expected in the same period in which the deferred tax assets are reversed. The assessment of deferred income tax assets is undertaken by management at the end of each period taking account of the expected future performance of the Group.

- Expected credit loss

The credit risk on the balances of accounts receivable is assessed at each reporting date, through the use of a collection matrix, which is based on the history of past collections adjusted for the future expectation of evolution of collections, to determine the non-receipt rate. Expected credit losses on accounts receivable are adjusted by the evaluation made, which may differ from the actual risk incurred in the future.

- Fair value of financial assets and liabilities

When the fair value of a financial asset or liability is calculated, on an active market, the respective market price is used. When there is no active market, which is the case with some of Corticeira Amorim financial assets and liabilities, valuation techniques generally accepted in the market, based on market assumptions, are used.

The Group applies evaluation techniques for unlisted financial instruments, such as derivatives, financial instruments at fair value and instruments measured at amortised cost. The most frequently used valorisation models are models of discounted cash flows and option models, which incorporate, for example, interest rate and market volatility curves.

For certain types of more complex derivatives, more advanced valuation models are used containing assumptions and data that are not directly observable in the market, for which the Group uses the proprietary model specified in Note 3.

- Revenue - return rights / quantity discounts

Some contracts give the customer the right to return goods and volume rebates. The right of return and volume discounts give rise to variable remuneration. When estimating the variable consideration, Corticeira Amorim determined that the use of a combination of the most probable quantity method and the value method expected is most appropriate. Before including any amount of variable consideration in the transaction price, Corticeira Amorim considers whether the amount of the variable consideration is restricted. Corticeira Amorim determined that the variable compensation estimates are not limited based on their historical experience, forecast of business and economic conditions. In addition, uncertainty over variable consideration will be resolved in a short period of time.

Acquisition of 50% of Cold River's Homestead, S.A.

On 24 June, Corticeira Amorim, through its subsidiary Amorim Florestal II, S.A., reached an agreement with Banco Comercial Português to acquire 50% of Cold River's Homestead, SA, which has a set of assets (movable and immovable property) related to agro-forestry exploitation, which constitutes a part (3,300 hectares) of the so-called Herdade do Rio Frio, located in the Setúbal district, for the total sum of EUR 14,525 K.

Corticeira Amorim has also reached an agreement with Parvalorem, SA, to acquire the remaining 50% of Cold River's Homestead, SA.

As it is widely known, Corticeira Amorim has a Forest Intervention Project underway, which aims to ensure the maintenance, preservation and enhancement of cork oak forests and the development of cork oaks, to increase their production through innovative processes and technologies already tried out in other areas and, in this way, to increase the carbon sink of cork oak forests and contribute to the carbon neutrality of the company and the country. Within the scope of this acquisition, Corticeira Amorim intends to improve the productivity of the agro-forestry activity of Herdade do Rio Frio, namely through densification to be implemented in this unique cork oak forest, with processes already experimented in other locations.

The fair values of assets and liabilities identified under this transaction include essentially the Herdade do Rio Frio. Therefore, the transaction value was attributed to the acquired tangible assets and no goodwill or negative goodwill resulted.

Adjustments = eliminations inter-BU and amounts not allocated to BU.

EBITDA = Profit before net financing costs, depreciation, non-controlling interests, income tax and non-recurrent results.

Provisions and asset impairments were considered the only relevant non-cash material cost.

The decision to report EBITDA figures allows a better comparison of the different BU performances, disregarding the different financial situations of each BU. This is also coherent with the existing Corporate Departments, as the Financial Department is responsible for the bank negotiations, being the tax function the responsibility of the Holding Company.

Cork Stoppers BU main product is the different types of existing cork stoppers. The main markets are the bottling countries, from the traditional ones like France, Italy, Germany, Spain and Portugal, to the new markets like USA, Australia, Chile, South Africa and Argentina.

Raw Materials BU is, by far, the most integrated in the production cycle of CORTICEIRA AMORIM, with 90% of its sales to others BU, specially to Cork Stoppers BU. Main products are bark and discs.

The remaining Business Units produce and sell a wide range of products that use the raw material left over from the production of stoppers, as well as the cork raw material that is not susceptible to be used in the production of stoppers. Main products are cork floor tiles, cork rubber for the automotive industry and antivibratic systems, expanded agglomerates for insulation and acoustic purposes, technical agglomerates for civil construction and shoe industry, as well as granulates for agglomerated, technical and champagne cork stoppers.

Major markets for flooring and insulation products are in Europe and for composites products the USA. Major production sites are in Portugal, where most of the invested capital is located. Products are distributed in practically all major markets through a fully owned network of sales companies. About 70% of total consolidated sales are achieved through these companies.

As referred to in b) in Note 2 of the annual report, impairment tests are performed annually. For the tests are projected cash-flows, based on the budget and plans ratified by management. The growth assumptions take into account the expected growth of the wine, champagne and sparkling wine market, as well as the evolution of the market share of the subsidiaries in this business.

In the tests, growth rates of 15% and 31% were used in Bourrassé and Elfverson, respectively, for the period 2020-2022 and 1.6% and 1.8% for the following years. The discount rate used was 6.98%. In the interim report of June 30, business plans were reassessed taking into account the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic. Considering the performance of the first semester it was concluded that it was not necessary to change the plans and the impairment tests previously approved.

The results of the annual impairment tests show that the recoverable amounts are sufficiently greater than the book values, even in the case of unfavourable evolutions in the main variables. Even in a scenario of a loss of 15% of sales forecasted in the business plans, Corticeira Amorim would not recognise impairment losses in the recorded goodwill.

The amount of 5,353 K€, referred as Investment Property (December 31, 2020: 5,403 K€), is due, mainly, to land and buildings that are not used in production.

The fair value of the Investment Properties in the case of the land and building in Corroios (determined on the basis of an independent valuation) is close to the value recorded in the accounts. This item also includes a property (Interchampagne with a value of 1,330 K€) with a recent valuation that corresponds to the book value. At the end of June 30, 2021, management made an analysis of these valuations and considered that they remained up to date. The remaining investment properties include a building with a book value of K€ 861 which yield, updated with a market WACC, will approximately correspond to the value at which they are booked (cost model) in the financial statements.

These properties are not generating income and conservation and repair costs are insignificant.

13. DEFERRED TAX / INCOME TAX

• Deferred tax and income tax

The difference between the tax due for the current period and prior periods and the tax already paid or to be paid of these periods is booked as "deferred tax" in the consolidated income statement and amounts to -150 K€ (31/12/2020: 279 K€).

On the consolidated statement of financial position this effect, excluding tax contingencies, amounts to 13,341 K€ (31/12/2020: 14,672 K€) as asset, and to 50,424 K€ (31/12/2020: 50,570 K€) as liability.

According to IFRIC 23, from 2019 the deferred tax liability item now includes provisions for tax contingencies in the amount of 43,896 K€ (31/12/2020: 43,332 K€). In September 2019, the IFRS Interpretation Commitee issued a document in which it concluded that a company is required to present liabilities relating to uncertainty over income to treatment in current tax or deferred tax. Corticeira Amorim considers that taking into account the previous treatment (in which these liabilities were presented as non-current) and the fact that these contingencies do not imply a transfer of economic resources in the short term, it would be more appropriate to present it under the caption Deferred tax.

Deferred tax related with items directly registered in equity was 99 K€ (credit balance) and relates to hedge accounting. No other deferred tax values related with other equity movements were booked.

It is conviction of the Board that, according to its business plan, the amounts registered in deferred tax assets will be recovered as for the tax carry forward losses.

In 2013, Corticeira Amorim made the payment instituted by DL 151-A / 2013 (RERD) in the amount of 4.3 M€, a payment that does not imply the abandonment by Corticeira Amorim of defending the respective processes. In 2016, a final decision was made on one of the paid processes relating to stamp taxes, which was partially won by Corticeira Amorim, which received 1.2 M€ of the amount paid of 1.7 M€. In 2019, the final decision of another process was won by Corticeira Amorim, which implied the receipt of 0.5 M€. In this way, the amount that remains open for ongoing proceedings paid under the RERD is 2.1 M€.

At the end of 2016, a special Plan for the Reduction of Indebtedness to the State (PERES) was approved by Decree-Law no. CORTICEIRA AMORIM decided to partially adhere to that measure. In December 2016, approximately 7.4 M€ were paid in respect of Stamp Tax / VAT (2 M€) and Income Tax (IRC) in the amount of 5.4 M€. Of the amount paid, less than 100 K€ was received due to lawsuits won by Corticeira Amorim. The remaining payments remain open.

To be noted that CORTICEIRA AMORIM was not a debtor to the social security and to the tax authority. Those amounts were subject to court litigation. The disputs that were chosen to adhere are old cases whose values of interest on late payments and fines to be paid, in case of loosing, would be high.

RERD and PERES allowed for the payment of the capital without any payment regarding late payment interests and other costs. Due to the fact that adhesion to RERD and PERES does not imply a mandatory abandonment of the court cases and those processes are still in court, CORTICEIRA AMORIM will continue to fight for its rights.

The liability amount under this caption includes the estimate of income tax payable by some foreign subsidiaries when the tax return for the year 2019 is presented.

Provisions for tax contingencies

In the year ended June 30, 2021, contingencies to deferred taxes with the item ending with 43.9 million euros. During the year, the provisions in the Balance Sheet increased by 564 K€. This variation is essentially due to the receipt of final declarations from SIFIDE 2019 and the calculation for the purposes of estimating SIFIDE 2020.

CORTICEIRA AMORIM's claims are pending, both in the judicial phase and in the non-contentious phase, and which may adversely affect CORTICEIRA AMORIM, refer to the financial years 1997, 1998, 1999 and 2003 to 2015.The most recent fiscal year analysed by Portuguese tax authorities was 2018.

These tax cases are basically related with questions like non-remunerated guarantees given between group companies, group loans (stamp tax), interest costs of holding companies (SGPS), and with the acceptance as tax costs of losses related with the closing of subsidiaries.

At the end of each year, an analysis of the tax cases is made. The procedural development of each case is important to decide new provisions, or reverse or reinforce existing provisions. Provisions correspond to situations that, for its procedural development or for doctrine and jurisprudence newly issued, indicate a probability of an unfavourable outcome for CORTICEIRA AMORIM and, if that happens, a cash outflow can be reasonably estimated. Note that during the year there were no developments worthy of note in the processes mentioned above.

The value of tax processes to date for the June 30, 2021 accounts amounted to 8.3 M€, being fully provisioned.

In addition to the tax provisions referred to above, CORTICEIRA AMORIM has recorded a provision to cover the tax benefits to apply for 2020 and applied in previous years. The certification requirement by ANI of SIFIDE projects, the requirement for maintenance of jobs over five years in RFAI projects as well as other constraints to the realization of benefits, has led CORTICEIRA AMORIM to record provisions in order to take account of future breaches of such requirements. It should be noted that the determination of the tax benefits can not be concluded, since its constraints extend over several years, in particular as regards the maintenance of jobs.

There are no tax proceedings that have not been provisioned, thus, contingent liabilities are zero.

CORTICEIRA AMORIM has a large number of other favourable processes. They refer, in essence, to payments related with autonomous taxation, inspection fees and tax benefits. The value of these processes amounts to 1.0 M€, which is not recorded as part of its assets. Total contingent assets amounts to 10.3 M€ (including amounts paid under the RERD and PERES).

From non-current and current interest bearing debt, 93,299 K€ carries floating interest rates. Remaining 63,622 K€ carries fixed interest rate. Average cost, during 1H21, for all the credit utilized was 0.82% (2020: 1.01%).

On March 5, 2015, Corticeira Amorim entered into a loan agreement with the EIB in the amount of 35 M €, ten years, with a four-year grace period. This loan allowed Corticeira Amorim to expand substantially its maturity curve at a competitive price.

In May 21, 2019 Corticeira Amorim contracted a commercial paper program with guarantee of subscription by a bank entity. The program has an effective maturity of 3 years, so the emissions made during the first two years are classified as non-current. Only Corticeira Amorim has the option to revoke the program when the first year of the contract has passed.

On 3 December 2020, Corticeira Amorim launched its first Green Bond issue, in the amount of € 40 M, by private subscription, without guarantees and for a period of 5 years, earning interest at a fixed rate every six months and with staggered repayment (25% at the end of the 4th year and 75% at maturity). This issue was an important milestone in its sustainability strategy, reaffirming its ongoing commitment to the application of ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance).

As of June 30, 2021, CORTICEIRA AMORIM had credit lines with contractual clauses that include covenants generally used in these type of contracts, namely: cross-default, pari-passu and in some cases negative pledge.

CORTICEIRA AMORIM uses two credit lines on June 30, 2021 (for a total of 48 M€) with associated financial covenants. These included ratios accomplishment that allowed for an accompaniment of the financial position of the company, namely:

  • assets coverage ratio;
  • fixed charge coverage ratio;
  • net income; e
  • Net debt/ EBITDA (endividamento bancário e equiparado) / meios libertos totais.

The above ratios are not restrictive and the requirements contained in the contracts that formalized the referred financing were largely and fully complied with. In the event of non-compliance, there would be a possibility that this would lead to the early repayment of the debts.

In addition, it is important to inform that the capacity to ensure debt service was further enhanced by the existence, as of June 30, 2021, of 222 million euros of credit lines approved, but not used.

In Other financial liabilities is included a value of 835 K€ (Dec. 2020: 164 K€), which refers to exchange rate hedge derivatives.

The agreement to acquire non-controlling interests results from the purchase of S.A.S. ETS CHRISTIAN BOURRASSÉ, in which 60% of the share capital was first acquired, for the amount of 29 M €. The agreement provides for the subsequent acquisition by 2022 of the remaining 40% ("agreement for acquisition of noncontrolling interests") at a price which, based on the value already paid for the first 60%, will also depend on the evolution of BOURRASSÉ's performance in next years. The first tranche of 10% was acquired during the month of July 2019, and in July 2020 the second tranche. In July 2021 will be acquired the third tranche corresponding to +10% of Bourrassé. The amount recognised in other financial liabilities corresponds to the remaining amount to be paid for the missing 20%, discounted at the average financing rate of Corticeira Amorim. The changes in present value are recognised in financial expenses and financial income. The increase of 1 p.p. of the financing rate would have an immaterial effect on the liability recognised.

CORTICEIRA AMORIM, SGPS, S.A. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – FIRST HALF 2021

Corticeira Amorim understands that the fair value of the classes of financial instruments presented does not differ significantly from its book value, taking into account the contractual conditions of each of these financial instruments.

Current assets and liabilities, given their short-term nature, have an accounting value similar to fair value

Non-current net debt is mostly payable at a variable rate. The only fixed-rate was contracted during the year 2015. As there were no significant changes in the reference interest rates, the rate does not differ substantially from the current market conditions, and therefore the fair value does not differ significantly from the value Accounting. The remaining fixed -rate non -current debt corresponds to the Green Bonds, which were issued at the end of 2020.

In the case of Other financial liabilities (mainly grants with no interest bearing measured at fair value at initial recognition), given the initial adjustment differential for recognising in income, maturities and current interest rate levels, difference between book value and fair value is not significant.

d) Reconciliation of Alternative Performance Measures

According to the guidelines of the ESMA (European Sales and Marketing Association) of October 2015 on Alternative Performance Measures (APM), Corticeira Amorim presents below a table to reconcile APMs that are not directly readable in the primary financial statements.
