EARNINGS ANNOUNCEMENT 30 JUNE 2017

30 JUNE 2017

1. CEO MESSAGE & MAIN HIGHLIGHTS

"During the second quarter of the year, important milestones were taken in the implementation of the defined corporate strategy, based on: (i) the continuous improvement of our current businesses competitive position; (ii) the pursuit of new value creator business opportunities within the Group's competence areas; (iii) the sale of non-core/strategic assets; and (iv) the maintenance of a balanced capital structure according to the type of business and assets held by the Group.

In the quarter, total investment amounted to 34.5M€, aimed at improving the competitive position of each of our businesses with a special focus on the Energy segment, with the acquisition of an additional 15MW capacity.

In addition, although not yet visible in financial indicators, the acquisition of ADIRA materializes our strategic purpose of incorporating new value added generating businesses. ADIRA, a Portuguese based company, strongly focused on the international markets, leverages on the country's main assets and resources, the Portuguese based engineering know-how.

Our businesses' performance continued to show progresses, visible in terms of turnover and profitability, being especially notable the improvements in Fitness, Hospitality and Energy segments, already incorporating (although not in full) the recent acquisitions. Following the current trend, we continue to expect an overall good performance for our businesses, including the Refrigeration & HVAC segment in Portugal, for which the higher number of on-going contracts allows us to foresee increased levels of activity for the forthcoming quarters. Regarding the sale of residential units in Troia, there was a notable recovery compared to the previous quarter and the number of booked contracts allows us to be comfortable about the performance in the next semester. In addition, concerning the sales of Real Estate Assets, although only one sales deed with significant amount was signed in the second quarter, the Promissory Purchase and Sale Agreements already signed in stock, provides good prospects for the current year.

Net Debt levels maintain a conservative capital structure taking into consideration the Group's type of assets. The distribution of dividends in the quarter and the recent acquisitions in Energy segment do not jeopardize this objective and the latter will allow for a significant improvement and higher stability of the Group's main financial indicators."

Cláudia Azevedo, CEO

The Group's consolidated turnover in 2Q17 amounted to 41.9M€, registering a slight decrease of 1.2% over the previous year. However, profitability performance was positive, with Ebitda reaching 5.2M€ (+26.1%), being worth to highlight the:

  • Improvement of the Hospitality segment's main operational indicators, namely Occupancy Rate (+7.3pp) and RevPar (+32.6%), registering a turnover growth of 24.8% and an Ebitda break-even in the 2Q that usually only occurs in the 3Q;
  • Fitness continued to show solid turnover growth (+25.8%), due to the continued increase of active members (+26%) and average monthly fees (+6.5% in 1H17). Lower level of Ebitda in 2Q17 compared to 2Q16 relates to the accounting of 7 fortnights in 2Q16, when in 2017, occurred in the first quarter;
  • Significant improvements in the Energy segment, with increases in both turnover (+18.6%) and Ebitda (+85.2%), to 3.58M€, already including the contribution of operations acquired, "Lusobrisa" (2 months) and "Ventos da Serra" (1 month);
  • Troia Resort registered a notable recovery when compared to previous quarter, having matched the number of sales deed compared to the same period of last year. Turnover decreased slightly by 0.7% due to a lower value/deed. During 2Q17, a total of 9 sales of residential units in Troia Resort were completed, compared to 5 signed in the previous year. As of today, 14 promissory purchase and sale agreements and reservations, corresponding to 5.9M€, remain in stock. It is forecasted for the next quarter the deeds signature for a large part of these contracts;
  • Related to Real Estate Assets we should note the sale of 'Vasco da Gama' Health Club for the amount of 4.7M€. It should be pointed out that PPSAs regarding a diverse portfolio of real estate

30 JUNE 2017

assets are still in the portfolio totaling 14.5M€, forecasting, once again, a positive performance for the next quarters;

• Ref. & HVAC registered an expected decrease of 17.8% in turnover, following the lower level of activity in domestic operation having also impacted Ebitda to negative 0.24M€. However, the outlook for the next quarters indicates positive prospective given the number of contracts in backlog at the end of semester.

Consolidated Net Results in the quarter amounted to positive 0.92M€, showing a decrease of 12.8M€ compared to the same period last year, mainly impacted by the sale of shareholdings in road concessionaires in the 2Q16. In addition, compared to the same period last year, the impacts were positive for: (i) the above mentioned Ebitda performance (+1.07M€); (ii) improve in Financial Results (+0.53M€), due to lower net debt level and lower financing costs; (iii) lower tax costs (+0.07M€); and (iv) Results from Investments due to badwill accounting related with one of the acquisitions completed in the quarter.

  • Maintenance of the positive performance and strengthening the competitive position reflected in the increased number of active members (+26.4%), as well as the positive evolution of the average monthly fees (+6.5%). As a result, turnover increased significantly 33.6% over the same period last year.
  • Performance at the turnover level is also reflected in the EBITDA performance, which improved 30.2% compared to 1H16 to 1.31M€. The decrease registered in 2Q17 when compared to the same period last year refers to the accounting of 7 fortnights in 2Q16 when in 2017 it happened in the 1Q.
  • During the year, the focus on the competitive position improvement will be kept, looking for additional opportunities to increase the number of fitness clubs in operation. This is already reflected in the Capex increase over the last quarters compared to the corresponding periods of the previous year.
  • Consequently, the investment in the opening of new clubs, following a capital light approach, is at an accelerated pace, which can be seen by the 17 Solinca's health clubs operating at the end of the semester (2 new openings planned for the 3Q: 'Constituição - Oporto' and 'Rio Tinto').

  • The main operational indicators continue to show favorable evolutions, with an improvement in the overall occupancy rate and RevPAR, in the semester, of 6.4pp and 28.4%, respectively. It should be noted that all operations increased RevPAR when compared to the same period last year, evidencing the positive dynamics of the sector in general and of this business segment performance in particular.
  • As a result, both 1H17 turnover (+25.4%) and EBITDA (+44.2%) show considerable growth rates.
  • It should be highlighted the positive EBITDA reached in 2Q17, an important milestone in the segment's history.
  • Excluding rents, it should be underlined that the Hospitality segment's EBITDAR amounted to 1.3M€ in the 2Q17, an improvement of almost the double over the 2Q16 figure. Pointing out the turnover seasonality in Troia, the first and fourth quarters usually register negative EBITDAR that are more than compensated by the positive results of the second and mainly the third quarters' activity.
  • Despite the investments that have been made in the improvement of existing infrastructures, namely in the Aqualuz Troia Unit, Capex has remained at controlled levels, allowing for a 49.2% improvement in Ebitda-Capex.
