1HIGHLIGHTS

Market share gains allow for the maintenance of the consolidated activity

  • consolidated turnover1 grows by 1% to 2,690 M€
  • share in the Portuguese food retail market increases by 1.1pp
  • Sonae MC sales grow by 1% on a "LfL" basis
  • Sonae SR businesses increase their market shares in Portugal and Spain

Profitability is sustained and financial structure is further strengthened

  • EBITDA reaches 299 M€ in the first six months of the year, corresponding to a margin on sales of 11%
  • Sonae Sierra and Sonaecom deliver significant increases in net income
  • Net result for the period totalled 58 M€, of which the share attributable to the Group was 35 M€
  • Return on Equity sustained at 13%, broadly in line with 2010
  • consolidated net debt decreases 242 M€ against the same period last year

"During 1H2011, there was a sharp decline in private consumption in the Iberian Peninsula, which was particularly pronounced in the discretionary market segments. In this challenging environment, Sonae clearly reinforced its commitment to being on the side of consumers. Market share gains in Portugal, obtained through the delivery of the best value proposition to the end customer, and the growing international business allowed for a sustained sales performance. During this period, thanks to the successful execution of our on-going plans to improve efficiency and optimise cost structures, it was possible to maintain the Group's profitability level almost in line with 2010.

In Portugal and Spain, uncertainties remain with regards to the austerity measures to come, and consequent impacts on consumer behaviour. Nevertheless, in light of the measures announced recently and with regards to the more cyclical segments, it is expected that markets will experience a greater contraction in sales, particularly over the Christmas season, which is a significant period in several markets. Nonetheless, we remain confident that we will continue to grow our market shares, to further strengthen our capital structure and to implement the defined medium and long term strategic guidelines, namely that of increasing our internationalisation. Despite the short-term volatility which prevails in the current economic and financial environment, we remain fully convinced that these guidelines continue to be the best way to generate more value for all of our stakeholders."

Paulo Azevedo, CEO Sonae

  • Despite the weak economic dynamism of the Iberian market and the first effects of the recent announcement of new austerity measures in Portugal, both of which particularly penalising in terms of private consumption behaviour, Sonae´s turnover for 1H11 increased circa 1% to 2,690 M€2 . In this challenging environment, Sonae businesses achieved gains in market share in the first 6 months of the year, which lead to an increase in consolidated activity.
  • In the first half of the year, recurrent EBITDA amounted to 286 M€, representing 10.6% of overall turnover. This figure was naturally impacted by the investment carried out in developing Sonae SR´s international operation, but also by the effects of the consumption retraction, particularly felt in the nonfood categories. Despite this, the efficiency measures carried out by our businesses and the optimisation of the cost structures have allowed for the maintenance of an EBITDA margin similar to the previous year.
  • Direct net income totalled 67 M€, circa 7M€ below the figure registered in the same period last year, mainly as a result of the EBIT evolution. In the same period, the indirect result relative to the shopping centres portfolio was –9 M€, significantly better than in the previous year (-25 M€). Consequently, net result for the period totalled 58 M€, of which the share attributable to the Group corresponds to circa 35 M€.
  • During the 1H11, total investment for the group amounted to 153 M€, having been mainly allocated to the development of the international operations and remodelling and maintenance of assets in Portugal.
  • As at 3otth June, total net debt amounted to 2,979 M€, which represents a reduction of 242M€ compared to 1H10. The company possesses a solid financial structure, with its debt decreasing sustainably and representing, as at end June 2011, 61% of invested capital (vs. 65% one year ago).

2 The analysis excludes the sales relative to the petrol stations (as during 2Q10 Sonae transferred the operation of 8 petrol stations to a third party), and incorporates the re-statement of Geostar´s 2010 turnover, taking into account the analysis of the sector practices (see Note on Section 9 of this report).

Turnover breakdown (1H11)

% total turnover ex-fuel

In 1H11, Sonae increased its consolidated turnover to 2,690 M€3 . The major contributors were as follows:

  • Sonae MC with 1,558 M€ (+41 M€ or +3%). This figure incorporates a positive evolution of over +1% on a comparable store universe basis, despite the effects of the "trading down" normally carried out by the consumers during difficult times. It is also worth highlighting that sales volumes have grown by more than 2% during the 1H11. Thus Sonae MC continued to strengthen its leadership in the market (+1.1 p.p. market share)4 , with an important contribution coming from its private and discount labels portfolio – currently representing circa 29% of sales in the relevant categories.
  • Sonae SR with 551 M€ (-1%). This variation is penalised by the evolution of -13% in the comparable store universe, in light of the significant decreases felt in the overall markets during the first half of the year. Despite this less favourable performance, we estimate that our main formats attained sales performances above market average, having consequently gained market share5 .
  • Sonae Sierra with 97 M€ (+2%). Within a context of lower consumption levels across most European countries, Sonae Sierra once again demonstrated the quality of its assets by increasing the average occupation rates to 97% and the volume of overall income from the shopping centres under its control – with particular reference to the contribution made by the Brazilian operation.
  • Sonaecom with 425 M€ (-25 M€). The lower turnover was exclusively determined by reductions in product sales (driven by the end of the "e-initiatives" programme) and by the decrease in regulated tariffs (mobile termination rates and roaming tariffs), as Optimus was able to maintain a positive evolution at the level of mobile customer revenues and grow its revenue market share by 1.2 p.p.6 , while SSI was able to increase its respective services revenues.

In consolidated terms, the Group´s recurrent EBITDA totalled 286 M€, representing a margin of 10.6%, practically in line with the same period last year. In a difficult macroeconomic environment, this performance was supported by the widespread implementation of projects to improve the operational efficiency in our different business areas. In terms of recurrent EBITDA, it is worth highlighting:

  • Sonae MC with 82 M€ (+3%), representing a profitability of 5.2% of the respective turnover (in line with the same period last year). Sonae MC was able to sustain its competitiveness during this period via a combination of relevant promotional activities, leveraged on its leading loyalty card (which was involved in over 85% of sales in the period), a rigorous cost control, gains in efficiency and in the optimisation of its supply chain.
  • Sonae SR´s contribution totalled -11 M€, which compares with a figure of +7 M€ registered in the same period last year. This evolution essentially reflects the negative sales behaviour in the Iberian market, but is also a result of the costs incurred, in terms of store openings and brand awareness, so as to constitute a relevant market position in Spain and to enter into new geographies.
  • Sonae RP with 54 M€. This figure is slightly below that of the same period last year (-4 M€), solely due to the reduction of the asset portfolio, which resulted from the sales executed between the two periods.
  • Sonae Sierra´s contribution to the Group´s consolidated results was stable at 45 M€, driven by the sustainability achieved in the operations and by the growth attained in Brazil, which translated into an EBITDA margin of 46.2% in 1H11.
  • Still in the same period, Sonaecom´s contribution totalled 106 M€ (+7%), corresponding to an increase in profitability compared to turnover of 2.9 p.p. (to 25%), resulting from the optimisation of its cost structure and the positive performance in terms of mobile customer revenues.

(1) Value created on investment and development properties; includes one-off investments. Management figures details

  • In 1H11, consolidated EBITDA reached 299 M€. This figure represents a slight decrease of circa 6 M€ in relation to the same period last year, essentially translating the evolution of the level of recurrent EBITDA. Non-recurring gains in 1H11 reached a figure of 13 M€ (+3 M€ than the previous year), essentially due to the capital gains registered resulting from the disposals of Sonae RP real estate assets.
  • In the same period, expenses relating to depreciations and amortizations stood at 153 M€ (+7 M€) and net financial expenses totalled 53 M€. This last figure is 2 M€ higher than the amount registered in the 1H10, despite the lower amount of average debt outstanding, as a result of the increase in effective interest costs, mostly explained by the higher market rates (Euribor).
  • The direct income for the period (attributable to shareholders) totalled 42 M€, circa 13 M€ below the figure registered in 1H10, basically translating the EBIT evolution described above.
  • The contribution of indirect results, relative to changes in the valuation of the shopping centres portfolio of Sonae Sierra, was negative by 8 M€ (which compares favourably with -14 M€ registered in the same period last year), as a consequence of an 20 bps (average) yield expansion in Portugal (bringing the cumulative increase since the end of 2008 to almost 120 bps), partially compensated by the increase in the valuation of assets in Brazil, determined exclusively by the improvement of the operational activity.
  • As a result of the above described evolution, total net result for the period reached 58 M€, of which the amount attributable to the Group was 35 M€.

SONAE

During the course of the first 6 months of 2011, Sonae carried out an overall investment of 153 M€, essentially distributed amongst the following projects:

  • completion of new retail projects in Portugal, including 1 new Continente Modelo store and 8 new stores for Sonae SR, of recognisable value and very positive return expectations;
  • widening of Sonae SR store network in the Spanish market, with the opening of 20 thousand new sqm of sales area (22 new stores) – thus pursuing an important avenue of international growth. It is also worth highlighting that during this period Sonae SR reached a total of 100 stores in Spain;
  • selective remodelling of a number of retail units so as to ensure that they remain as a reference in their respective areas of implementation;
  • actively manage the attractiveness of Sonae Sierra´s current shopping centres and pursue new development projects in Italy (Le Terrazze) and Brazil (Uberlândia and Londrina). It is expected that these shopping centres will open during the course of 2012. Also, Sonae Sierra announced the establishment of a joint-venture with MAB Development to develop a new shopping centre project in Solingen, Germany. Construction of this shopping is expected to begin in the next few months;
  • maintain Optimus´s high level of quality in mobile and fixed network, as one of Sonaecom´s distinctive strategic assets.

The cash flow generation of our businesses continues to increase, as evidenced by the 28% increase (or +29 M€) registered, in the first half of 2011, at the level of Recurrent EBITDA minus Capex.

As at 30th June, Sonae´s overall net capital employed was 4,891 M€. Sonae Sierra´s contribution to this total amount was 1,513 M€ (- 87 M€ compared to the same period last year, resulting from participation reductions in 3 shopping centres in operation in Greece and Spain). Sonae RP´s net invested capital was 1,370 M€ (- 118 M€, driven by the implementation of the sale & lease back programme of retail real estate assets).

As at end June 2011, Sonae´s total net debt amounted to 2,979 M€, translating in a significant reduction (242 M€ or -8%) over the course of the last 12 months. This figure is all the more significant when valued, in accumulated terms, since 1Q09 (a total reduction of circa -600 M€), and within a context of a strong investment in international growth.

Sonae continues with the strategy of strengthening its capital structure, having already ensured the repayment of all debt facilities that mature during 2011. In June 2011, consolidated net debt represented 61% of capital employed compared to 65% at the end of 1H10.

  • As at end June, the retail units net debt totalled 1,326 M€, 91 M€ below the same period in 2010 and corresponding to a Net Debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.2x (significantly below the figures registered at the end of 1H10). This evolution was driven by the combination of a strong cash-flow generation with the completion of a number of sale & leaseback transactions, reducing Sonae MC's level of freehold to approximately 78% (vs. 85% at the end of the 1H10).
  • Sonae Sierra´s net debt decreased by 159 M€ to 696 M€, benefitting from the sale of participations in the "Mediterranean Cosmos", "Plaza Éboli" and "El Rosal" shopping centres, and the cash in-flow resulting from Sonae Sierra Brazil´s IPO. The combination of these operations reflects the implementation of the defined capital "recycling" strategy, which enables the continued business development, while reducing leverage, as evidenced by the evolution of the loan-tovalue ratio (which went from 47% in the same period last year to 42% at the end of June 2011).
  • Sonaecom´s net debt decreased by 18 M€ to 345 M€, mainly as a result of the increasing capacity of its businesses to generate positive free cash-flows and despite the dividends distributed in the 1H11 (the first in its history).

8CORPORATE INFORMATION

Outlook for 2011

Uncertainties prevail over what impacts the austerity measures will have on consumer behaviour. As mentioned in the previous quarter, and as a result of the deterioration of the trading environment in Portugal, we continue to anticipate growing pressure on sales and commercial margins during the remaining months of 2011.

Thus, in light of the likely reduction in disposable income, as a result, namely, of the extraordinary tax recently approved in Portugal, it is expected that, in particular regarding the more cyclical segments, the overall markets experience a contraction in sales, namely over the Christmas season. As such, and so as to sustain the Group´s solid profitability levels, the programmes which have the potential to improve productivity and efficiency will continue to be carried out.

Sonae will also continue to ensure a strong scrutiny over investment decisions and, despite the contraction of demand for Portuguese real estate, will continue to pursue its programme to free up invested capital in its retail real estate arm, whenever adequate opportunities arise, which reflect the high quality of the assets. These actions, in conjunction with the cash-flow generated by its businesses in Portugal, will enable the company to continue to promote international growth and, in parallel, to strengthen its capital structure.

Despite the exceptional economic moment and the uncertainty surrounding the markets, Sonae remains confident in the strength of its strategic guidelines which privilege the reinforcement of the value proposition of the businesses, diversification of our investment style and international growth.

2Q11 Main Corporate Events

On 15th April, Sonae announced the signature of a partnership deal for the joint development of a retail operation in Angola. The project comprises the opening of a network of Continente hypermarkets and fits within Sonae's defined strategic development framework by bringing a very relevant international growth opportunity and, at the same time, enabling the diversification of investment style.

On 16th May the company announced the completion of an agreement for the transfer to Sonae of the operation of 8 existing consumer electronics stores in Spain. This operation is particularly relevant as it allows Sonae to significantly strengthen its position in the Spanish market (in particular via the Worten brand) and fulfil its accelerated international growth strategy under a capital light framework.

On 20th June Sonae informed the market of the expansion of its international activities with the opening of the first specialised retail store in Turkey (in Istanbul, under the Zippy format). Entry into the Turkish market was carried out via direct investment, although it followed a capital light approach with what concerns to the real estate assets.

Subsequent Events

On 5 th July and 22 nd August, the entry of Sonae in, respectively, Egypt and Kazakhstan was announced, with the opening of the first Zippy stores in their respective capital cities. These expansions were carried out under a franchise regime, via a partnership signed with Fawaz Alhokair Group, thus following the strategy of diversification of investment styles.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL

STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED

30 JUNE 2011

(Amounts expressed in euro)

(Translation of condensed consolidated financial statements originally issued in Portuguese.

In case of discrepancies the Portuguese version prevails.)

1 INTRODUCTION

SONAE, SGPS, SA ("Sonae Holding"), has its head office at Lugar do Espido, Via Norte, Apartado 1011, 4471-909 Maia, Portugal, and is the parent company of a group of companies, as detailed in Notes 4 to 7 ("Sonae"). Sonae`s operations and operating segments are described in Note 31.

These consolidated financial statements were not subject to an audit or a limited review by the external auditor.

Revenue recognition Geostar business

According to the recent amendment to IAS 18, revenues must include the gross inflows of economic benefits received and receivable by the entity of its own. Amounts collected on behalf of third parties are not economic benefits which flow to the entity and are therefore excluded from revenue. This methodological change resulted in the restatement of turnover and related costs for the same period of 30 June 2010.

2 PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those followed in the preparation of annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010.

2.1. Basis of preparation

Interim financial statements are presented quarterly, in accordance with IAS 34 – "Interim Financial Reporting".

The accompanying condensed 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 some financial instruments which are stated at fair value.

3 CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

During the period were adopted a set of accounting standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions issued in previous years and whose implementation has become mandatory for the year 2011 as disclosed in financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010, which did not have significant impacts on the financial statements 30 June 2011.

  • 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 whether or not, to retain the Escrow Account for ongoing tax additional assessments that have not yet been decided. It is the understanding of the Board of Directors, based on legal opinions of Brazilian and Portuguese lawyers, that the company is acting in accordance with the agreement and that this amount shall be entirely received, and that there are legal means that may be operated so as to compel the buyer to authorize the reimbursement of the Escrow account. There are negotiations currently under way between the two parties in order to release the above mentioned amount; And

a) As a result of the agreements signed in 2005 by the former subsidiary - Sonae Distribuição Brazil, SA (sold to Wal-Mart in 2005) with Carrefour Comércio e Indústria Ltda, Sonae assumed 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 11 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 were presented to Sonae, or proof of the necessity of carrying out such costs for the licensing process as established on the mentioned agreements.

It is the understanding of the Board of Directors and the Group attorneys that the amount paid will be recovered. The company will start 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 8 years.

18 SHARE CAPITAL

As at 30 June 2011, the share capital, which is fully subscribed and paid for, is made up of 2,000,000,000 ordinary shares, which do not have the right to a fixed dividend, with a nominal value of 1 euro each.

On 15 November 2007, Sonae Holding sold, 132,856,072 Sonae Holding shares directly owned by the Company. The shares were sold in a market operation at the unit price of 2.06 euro per share and resulted on a cash inflow (net of brokerage commissions) of 273,398,877 euro.

On the same date, Sonae Investments, BV, wholly owned by Sonae Holding entered into a derivative financial instrument - Cash Settled Equity Swap - over a total of 132,800,000 Sonae Holding shares, representative of 6.64% of its share capital.

This transaction has a maximum maturity of three years and a strictly financial liquidation, without any duty or right for the Company or any of its associated companies in the purchase of these shares. This transaction allows Sonae Investments BV to totally maintain the economic exposure to the sold shares.

In this context, although legally all the rights and obligations inherent to these shares have been transferred to the buyer, Sonae Holding did not derecognize their own shares, recording a liability in the caption "Other non-current liabilities" (Note 22). According to the interpretation made by Sonae of the IAS 39, applied by analogy to own equity instruments, the derecognition of own shares is not allowed as Sonae maintains the risks and rewards arising on the instruments sold.

Consequently, Sonae maintains the deduction from Equity amounting to the acquisition cost of the 132,800,000 shares (138,568,275 euro), and has accounted for the consideration received for the above mentioned sale of own shares in the caption "Other noncurrent liabilities" (273,568,000 euro).

Due to the detach of Sonae Capital SGPS, SA, as at 4 January 2008, demerger rights attributable to the 132,800,000 Sonae SGPS, SA shares subject to the above mentioned agreement, Sonae recognized an asset measured at its' fair value . This asset has not been derecognized as Sonae also entered into a Cash Settled Equity Swap over the Sonae Capital SGPS, SA shares, and therefore a liability was recognized.

On 23 April 2009, 10 March 2010 and 28 March 2011 Sonae Investments BV requested a partial cancellation of the Cash settled Equity Swap for 1,134,965, 1,185,144 and 3,639,140 shares of Sonae Holding respectively. Consequently the derivative underlying asset was updated to 126,840,751 Sonae Holding shares.

On 19 October 2010 Sonae Investments BV has agreed with a financial institution to extend the maturity of the Cash Settled Equity Swap over the 130,479,891 Sonae Holding´s shares. The renovation is done for a maximum of 3 additional years, until November 2013 and maintains the settlement mechanism of the transaction that remains strictly cash settled. The Cash Settled Equity Swap, over

shares of Sonae Capital, was not subject to extension of maturity, and Sonae acquired 16,600,000 shares in the market representing 6.6% of the capital of Sonae Capital, in result of fair value.

Therefore and for the transactions described above, the value of liabilities at the date of 30 June 2011, is 91,452,181 euro on the market value of Sonae Holding (Note 22).

These liabilities are adjusted at the end of each month by the effect in Sonae Holding share price, being recognized a current asset/liability in order to present the right/obligation related to the cash settlement of the operation that resets monthly.

Additionally, the costs related to the "floating amount" based on Euribor 1 month are recorded in the income statement.

The receivable amount arising on dividends distributed by the Company is credited to Equity in order to offset the charge of the distribution. The amount of dividends attributable to the shares Sonae SGPS, SA during the period ended 30 June 2011, amounts to 4,198,429 euro (4,110,117 euro in 2010) which was credited to equity.

The number of shares taken into consideration to calculate earnings per share includes the shares referred to above as a deduction to the shares issued by the Company (Note 29).

At 30 June 2011, the following entities held more than 20% of the subscribed share capital:

21 DERIVATIVES

Exchange rate derivatives

Sonae uses exchange rate derivatives, essentially to hedge future cash flows.

Sonae contracted several exchange rate forwards and options in order to manage its exchange rate exposure.

As at 30 June 2011, the fair value of exchange rate derivatives which haven't been considered hedging instruments, calculated based on present market value of equivalent financial instruments of exchange rate, is null in liabilities as in the caption current investments (76,618 and zero euro as of 31 December 2010)

The computation of the fair value of these financial instruments was made taking into consideration the present value at balance sheet date of the forward settlement amount of the relevant contract. The settlement amount considered in the valuation, is equal to the reference currency notional amount (foreign currency) multiplied by the difference between the contracted forward exchange rate and the forward exchange market rate to the settlement date as at the valuation date.

Gains and losses in the period arising from changes in the fair value of instruments that do not qualify for hedging accounting treatment were recorded directly in the income statement in the caption "Net financial expenses".

Gains and losses for the period arising from fair value change of derivatives qualified as hedging instruments were recorded in the caption "Hedging reserve" of Comprehensive Income.

Interest rate derivatives

As at 30 June 2011, derivatives used by Sonae refer essentially to swaps and interest rate options ("cash flow hedges"). These were negotiated to hedge the interest rate risk of loans amounting to 1,o22,662,848 euro (1,118,050,663 euro as at 31 December 2010). The fair value of these derivatives amounts to -22,039,105 euro (-37,139,105 euro as at 31 December 2010), and is disclosed as assets amounting to 1,475,098 euro (423,774 euro as at 31 December 2010) and as liabilities 23,514,658 euro (37,562,879 euro as at 31 de December de 2010).

Derivatives were valuated considering the estimated future cash-flows, assuming the exercise of the cancellation options by the counterparties when the forward interest rates are higher than the established fixed interest rate. Sonae intends to keep these derivatives until their expiration date, therefore, this valuation is considered to be the most appropriate to estimate the future cash flow of these instruments.

These interest rate derivatives are valued at fair value, at the balance sheet date, based on valuations performed by Sonae using specific software and on external valuations when this software does not deal with specific instruments. The fair value of swaps was calculated, at the balance sheet date, 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. The calculation of the fair value of options was based on the "Black-Scholes" and similar models.

Interest rate and exchange rate derivatives

As at 30 June 2011 no contracts existed related to interest rate and exchange rate derivatives.
