MANAGEMENT REPORT

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Sonae Indústria's operational performance in the first half of 2017 was once again positive with a Recurrent EBITDA margin of 17.0%, 1.4 p.p. above last year and generating a Net Profit of 14.1 million euros in the period, the latter including the contribution from Sonae Arauco.

First half 2017 performance of our three main businesses (North America, Laminates and Components and Sonae Arauco) was impacted by higher input costs of chemical raw materials compared to last year although the trend of increasing chemical costs initiated at the end of 2016 has started to subside in recent months. These increased input costs were largely compensated by our efforts to increase productivity, allowing us to broadly sustain 1H17 proportional recurrent EBITDA at the levels of 1H16.

Sonae Indústria Balance Sheet continued to strengthen due to a combination of lower Net Debt and increased Shareholders' Funds. Proportional leverage ratio also improved to 3.4x.

In North America, and following last year's investment in a fifth melamine surfacing line, that includes embossed and in-register capabilities, the new VIVA collection has had good market acceptance and is showing encouraging progress in sales volumes, improving our innovation contribution to our customers.

The strategic partnership with Arauco has now completed its first anniversary. While delivering positive net results, we have been able, together with our partners, to improve the competitiveness of our plants and our focus on customer needs and service level. In June, the shareholders of Sonae Arauco approved the distribution of a dividend equal to 50% of 2016 Net Profit that was paid in July.

In order to create the conditions for a more competitive and sustainable business we will continue to invest in our production facilities. An example is our recent decision at Sonae Arauco to invest in the replacement of a multi daylight MDF press by a new continuous press and ancillary equipment at its Mangualde plant in Portugal.

Paulo Azevedo Chairman Sonae Indústria

1.Sonae Indústria Results

1.1. Proportional Results (unaudited, pro forma)

SUMMARY OF 1H17 RESULTS (See also Explanatory Notes at the end of the document)

Due to the fact that one of Sonae Indústria's main assets (its 50% shareholding in Sonae Arauco) is accounted by the Equity method since 1 June 2016, we are presenting in section 1.1. unaudited pro forma Proportional Indicators, to help improve the understanding of size of the business, valuation and financial leverage of Sonae Indústria today.

These Proportional Indicators consider the full results of the wholly owned businesses and the proportional consolidation of the 50% contribution from Sonae Arauco.

FINANCIAL INDICATORS (unaudited and pro forma ) 1H16 1H17
Proportional Turnover 332 331
Proportional Rec. EBITDA 49 48
Proportional Rec. EBITDA margin 14.7% 14.4%
Proportional LTM Turnover 647 644
Proportional LTM Rec. EBITDA 83 90
Proportional LTM Rec. EBITDA margin 12.8% 14.0%
LEVERAGE
Proportional Net Debt 339 308
Proportional Leverage (Net Debt / LTM Rec. EBITDA) 4.1 x 3.4 x
LOAN TO VALUE
Net Debt of Sonae Indústria 222 213
Asset Value 472 523
LTV (Net Debt of Sonae Indústria / Asset Value) 47% 41%

For the first half of the year, Net Debt to Recurrent EBITDA (proportional) stood at 3.4x, which represents an improvement of 0.7x vs. June 2016, driven by both the increased Recurrent EBITDA and by the lower Net Debt y.o.y.. Loan to Value also improved when compared to 1H16, decreasing to 41%, at the end of June 2017.

PROPORTIONAL TURNOVER BY DESTINATION MARKET – 1H16 PROPORTIONAL TURNOVER BY DESTINATION MARKET – 1H17

1.2. Consolidated Results

Consolidated Turnover for the first half of the year reached 121.8 million euros, an improvement of 1.0% vs. 1H16 (+1.2 million euros) benefiting from the appreciation of the Canadian dollar vs. the EUR. On a quarterly basis, consolidated turnover stood at 62.3 million euros, representing a decrease of 0.9 million euros vs. same period of last year driven by lower sales of our Laminates & Components business that offset the higher Turnover in our North American business. However, Turnover improved by 2.8 million euros, when compared to the previous quarter, due to the better performance of the North American business with higher sales volumes and average selling prices.

Variable costs per cubic meter increased in 1H17 when compared to the same period of last year driven by the higher input costs of chemicals. However when compared with 1Q17, variable costs per cubic meter have decreased with the trend for increased cost of chemicals being interrupted in 2Q17.

Recurrent EBITDA for the first half of the year reached 20.8 million euros, an improvement of 1.9 million euros (+10.2%) vs. 1H16 with an underlying Recurrent EBITDA margin of 17.0%, up by 1.4 p.p. vs. 1H16. On a quarterly basis, Recurrent EBITDA for the 2Q17 stood at 11.0 million euros, a decrease of 0.5 million euros vs. 2Q16 driven by higher chemical costs per cubic meter and lower production volumes in North America, but an improvement of 1.3 million euros against last quarter, with a Recurrent EBITDA margin of 17.7%, down by 0.5 p.p. vs. last year and above 1Q17 by 1.4 p.p.

Sonae Indústria consolidated EBITDA for the first semester of the year reached 20.6 million euros, circa 1.5 million euros higher than the 1H16, on a comparable basis, mostly explained by lower fixed costs that this year reflect one-off adjustments to personnel cost accruals. Consolidated EBITDA for 2Q17 stood at 10.9 million

euros, a deterioration of circa 1.2 million euros vs. 2Q16, mainly driven by a reduction in the contribution of our North American business which however performed better than in the previous quarter and was the main driver for the 1.2 million euros improvement in the consolidated EBITDA vs. 1Q17.

Total fixed costs for the first semester of the year represented 15.6% of turnover, an improvement of 0.4 p.p. when compared to 1H16.

Total headcount for Sonae Indústria, at the end of June 2017, was 484 FTE's excluding Sonae Arauco, which compares with 488 FTE's at the end of March and 486 FTE's in June 2016.

Depreciation and amortization charges during 1H17 were 6.2 million euros, which represents an increase of 6.5% when compared to 1H16, explained by the higher depreciation charges in our North American operation which now take into account the investment in the new melamine surfacing line completed in 2Q16. For the quarter, the depreciations charges reached 3.1 million euros, in line with the values booked for 2Q16 and 1Q17.

Provisions and impairment losses for the 1H17 represent a charge of 0.1 million euros, circa 0.4 million euros higher vs. 1H16 when a gain of 0.3 million was registered due to the release of provisions for the legacy restructuring process in France.

Net financial charges during 1H17 were 6.1 million Euros, which represents a reduction of circa 3.7 million euros vs. 1H16. This is explained by a reduction of 4.0 million euros in Net Interest Charges justified by the reduction of net debt and cost of debt but also by the fact that 1H16 figures included the recognition of previously deferred upfront financing costs of 1.9 million Euros as a result of the early repayment of loans

SONAE INDÚSTRIA MANAGEMENT REPORT - FIRST HALF 2017

carried out within the setting up of the Sonae Arauco partnership. Compared with the previous quarter net financial charges increased mostly a result of a one off effect for foreign exchange differences and derivatives in 2Q17.

Gains and losses in Joint-Ventures, amounted to 9.3 million euros, corresponding to 50% of the consolidated net profit of Sonae Arauco for the first half of the year. On a quarterly basis, Gains and Losses in Joint-Ventures reached 5.1 million euros, up by 1.9 million euros and by 0.9 million euros when compared to 2Q16 and to 1Q17, respectively.

Current tax charges were 3.9 million euros for the first half of the year, a decrease of 0.4 million euros when compared to 1H16, driven by lower tax charges in Canada. On a quarterly basis, current tax charges improved 1.2 million euros vs. 2Q16, mostly due to lower tax charges in Portugal but increased by 0.6 million euros when compared to the previous quarter, driven by higher tax charges in Canada.

As a result of the combination of the above factors, Sonae Indústria booked a consolidated positive Net Result of circa 14.1 million euros during 1H17, an improvement of 41.5 million euros when compared to same period of last year. It should be noted that, as then reported, the results of Discontinued Operations in 2Q16 included a one off accounting charge of 36.6 million euros related with accounting effects from the loss of control of Sonae Arauco. For the quarter, the net result reached 7.6 million euros, an improvement of 38.3 million euros and of 1.2 million euros, when compared to 2Q16 and 1Q17, respectively.

Included in Other Non-current assets, is the investment in Joint-Ventures (50% of Sonae Arauco) in an amount of 198.6 million euros, which is circa 1.9 million euros lower than the book value of this investment at the end of 1Q17, despite the positive results of Sonae Arauco, mostly due to the amount of dividends to be paid by Sonae Arauco to Sonae Indústria (booked in 1H17 and settled in July) in an amount of circa 5.7 million euros, which justify the increase in Current assets.

Consolidated Working Capital reached 10.0 million euros, a decrease of 3.3 million euros when compared to March 2017, due to a decrease in inventories in our North American operation, combined with an increase in trade creditors balances, also in our North American operation. When compared to the end of 2016, consolidated Working Capital was kept relatively stable.

Net Debt stood at 212.8 million euros, at the end of June 2017, which represents a decrease of 7.2 million euros when compared to the end of 1Q17, benefiting from the positive EBITDA and, in this quarter, also from the reduction in Working Capital. When compared to the end of 2016, Net Debt also decreased, in this case by 0.7 million euros.

Total Shareholders' Funds continued to strengthen and at the end of June 2017 amounted to 120.3 million euros, which represents an increase of 3.6 million euros when compared to March 2017, mostly due to the positive net results of the quarter. It should also be highlighted that, when compared to the end of 2016, total Shareholder's Funds increased by 10.0 million euros.

Additions to Gross Tangible Fixed Assets reached 3.6 million euros during the first half of the year, marginally below the 3.9 million euros registered in 1H16, on a like for like basis. The figure for 1H17 includes not only the investments executed in our North American plant but also part of the ongoing investment in the new edging line for our Components plant in Portugal.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 (Amounts expressed in euros)

1. INTRODUCTION

SONAE INDÚSTRIA, SGPS, SA has its head-office at Lugar do Espido, Via Norte, 4470- 909 Maia, Portugal.

The shares of the company are listed on Euronext Lisbon.

Consolidated financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2017 and 30 June 2016 were not subject to a limited revision carried out by the company's statutory external auditor.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This set of consolidated financial statement has been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies that were disclosed on the notes to the consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2016.

2.1. Basis of Preparation

These consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting. As such, they do not include all the information which should be included in annual consolidated financial statements and should therefore be read in connection with the financial statements for fiscal year 2016.

2.2. Changes to accounting standards

These consolidated financial statements were prepared on the basis of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and with Interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRS IC), effective from 1 January 2017 and endorsed by the European Union.

2.2.1. At 30 June 2017, the following standards and interpretations had been issued by IASB and had been endorsed by the European Union, but had not been applied as they only become effective on later periods:

IFRS 9 (new), Financial instruments (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018). IFRS 9 replaces the guidance in IAS 39, regarding: (i) the classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities; (ii) the recognition of credit impairment (through the expected credit losses model); and (iii) the hedge accounting requirements and recognition;

IFRS 15 (new), Revenue from contracts with customers (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018). This new standard applies only to contracts with customers to provide goods or services and requires an entity to recognise revenue when the contractual obligation to deliver the goods or services is satisfied and by the amount that reflects the consideration the entity is expected to be entitled to, following a five step approach.

The Company does not estimate any significant effect to arise from the application of these standards.

2.2.2. At 30 June 2017, the following standards, effective 1 January 2017 or later, had been issued by IASB but still had not been endorsed by the European Union:

IAS 7 (amendment), Statement of Cash Flows – Disclosure initiative (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017). This amendment is still subject to endorsement by the European Union. This amendment introduces an additional disclosure about the changes in liabilities arising from financing activities,

disaggregated between cash changes and non-cash changes and how it reconciles with the reported cash flows from financing activities, in the Cash Flow Statement;

IAS 12 (amendment), Income taxes – Recognition of deferred tax assets for unrealised losses (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017). This amendment is still subject to endorsement by the European Union. This amendment clarifies how to account for deferred tax assets related to assets measured at fair value, how to estimate future taxable profits when temporary deductible differences exist and how to assess recoverability of deferred tax assets when restrictions exist in the tax law;

IAS 40 (amendment), Transfers of Investment property (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018). This amendment is still subject to endorsement by the European Union. This amendment clarifies when assets are transferred to, or from investment properties, the evidence of the change in use is required. A change of management intention in isolation is not enough to support a transfer;

IFRS 2 (amendment), Classification and measurement of share-based payment transactions (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018). This amendment is still subject to endorsement by the European Union. This amendment clarifies the measurement basis for cash-settled, share-based payments and the accounting for modifications to a share-based payment plan that change the classification an award from cash-settled to equity-settled. It also introduces an exception to the principles in IFRS 2 that will require an award to be treated as if it was wholly equity-settled, where an employer is obliged to withhold an amount for the employee's tax obligation associated with a share-based payment and pay that amount to the tax authority;

IFRS 4 (amendment), Insurance contracts (Applying IFRS 4 with IFRS 9) transactions (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018). This amendment is still subject to endorsement by the European Union. This amendment allows companies that issue insurance contracts the option to recognise in Other Comprehensive Income, rather than Profit or Loss the volatility that could rise when IFRS 9 is applied before the new insurance contract standard is issued. Additionally, it is given an optional temporary exemption from applying IFRS 9 until 2021, to the companies whose activities are predominantly connected with insurance, not being applicable at consolidated level;

IFRS 15 (amendment) Revenue from contracts with customers (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018). This amendment is still subject to endorsement by European Union. This amendment refers to additional guidance for determining the performance obligations in a contract, the timing of revenue recognition from a license of intellectual property, the review of the indicators for principal versus agent classification, and to new practical expedients to simplify transition;

IFRS 16 (new), Leases (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019). This standard is still subject to endorsement by European Union. This new standard replaces the IAS 17 with a significant impact on the accounting by lessees that are now required to recognise a lease liability reflecting future lease payments and a "right-of-use asset" for all lease contracts, except for certain short-term leases and for low-value assets. The definition of a lease contract also changed, being based on the "right to control the use of an identified asset";

IFRS 17 (new), Insurance contracts (effective for annual periods beginning 1 January 2021). This standard will revoke IFRS 4 – Insurance contracts 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 complete "building block approach" or "premium allocation approach". The recognition of the technical margin is different depending on whether it is positive or negative. IFRS 17 is of retrospective application;

Annual Improvement 2014 - 2016, (generally effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017). These improvements are still subject to endorsement by European Union. The 2014-2016 annual improvements impacts: IFRS 1, IFRS 12 and IAS 28;

IFRIC 22 (new), Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018). This interpretation is still subject to endorsement by the European Union. An Interpretation to IAS 21 'The effects of changes in foreign exchange rates' it refers to the determination of the "date of transaction" when an entity either pays or receives consideration in advance for foreign currency denominated contracts". The date of transaction determines the exchange rate used to translate the foreign currency transactions;

IFRIC 23 (new), Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments (effective for annual periods beginning 1 January 2019). ). This interpretation is still subject to endorsement by the European Union. This is an interpretation of IAS 12 - Income tax referring to the measurement and recognition requirements to be applied when there is uncertainty as to the acceptance of an income tax treatment by the tax authorities. In the event of uncertainty as to the position of the tax authority on a specific transaction, the entity shall make its best estimate and record the income tax assets or liabilities under IAS 12 rather than IAS 37 - Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets, based on the expected value or the most probable value. The application of IFRIC 23 may be retrospective or retrospective modified.

The Company does not estimate any significant effect to arise from the application of these standards.

On 31 May 2016, the then subsidiary Tafleros de Fibras, S. A. (currently Sonae Arauco, S. A.) carried out a share capital increase, which was fully subscribed and paid by Arauco Group. As a consequence, Sonae Arauco S. A. and its subsidiaries identified as a) were excluded from consolidation as they were classified as joint ventures on that date. From that date, these companies have been recognized on the consolidated financial statements of Sonae Indústria, SGPS, S. A. using the equity method. Net profit/(loss) of these companies for the five-month period ended 31 May 2016 were stated under Profit / (loss) of discontinued operations, after taxation, on the Consolidated Income Statement.

In the consolidated financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2016, Sonae Indústria, SGPS, S. A. recognized the fair value of its investment in Sonae Arauco, S. A., which was estimated to amount to EUR 185 981 068, with reference to 31 May 2016. The recognition of this fair value implies adjusting the identifiable assets and liabilities of Sonae Arauco, S. A. and its subsidiaries at fair value, with reference to 31 May 2016, for equity method purposes. Based on external appraisals, the fair value adjustment to land and buildings amounts to EUR 10 000 000, which would adjust final goodwill by the same amount. This adjustment would increase annual depreciation charge by EUR 100 000, of which 50% would be attributable to Sonae Indústria, SGPS, S. A.. Taking into consideration the irrelevance of this amount, Sonae Indústria decided to not adjust the consolidated net profit or loss of Sonae Arauco, S. A. for equity method purposes from 31 May 2016.

Net assets and net profit/loss for these jointly-controlled companies, whose share was recognized on these consolidated financial statements using equity method, are detailed as follows:
