CORTICEIRA AMORIM, SGPS, S.A. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1ST QUARTER 2023
Translation of consolidated financial statements originally issued in Portuguese. In case of discrepancy the Portuguese version prevails.

The world economy underwent a moderate slowdown in the first three months of 2023, reflecting a less aggressive climate compared with the expectations that prevailed in 2022. Inflationary pressures nevertheless persisted at the beginning of the year, even though price increases had already peaked. The trend in monetary policy tightening continued with interest rate increases and a reduction in excess liquidity. The US banking system was impacted by instability in March, especially in terms of regional banking. The quarter was also characterised by the ending of Covid-zero policies in China and a fall in energy prices.
The US economy is projected to have grown by about 1.1%, a performance that was below expectations and which reflected a declining trend. The quarter was marked by intense debate over the need for action to reverse the upward trend in prices and fears that such accelerated and rapid monetary tightening would lead to a recession.
Contrary to expectations, the Eurozone avoided a recession in the first quarter, benefitting from a drop-in energy prices and a mild winter. Economic activity is estimated to have increased 0.1% compared with the previous quarter, a period of economic stagnation. Portugal recorded growth of 1.6% on the previous three months and 2.5% year-on-year, supported mainly by an increase in net external demand.
Corticeira Amorim's consolidated sales totalled €259.9 million in the first quarter of 2023, a decrease of 1.4% compared with the same period of the previous year. A decline in sales by the Floor and Wall Coverings Business Unit (BU) had a critical impact on the evolution of consolidated sales, while sales by the Cork Stoppers BU increased 5.9%. Overall, sales growth was higher in the first quarter of 2022 (+17.9% on a comparable basis), conditioning the comparison with the same period of 2023.
It should be noted that the exchange rate effect in the first quarter was almost neutral. Excluding this effect, sales would have decreased by 1.7% in the first three months of 2023.
In regard to the other BUs, sales increased for Raw Materials (+20.7%) and Insulation (+25.7%) and decreased for Composite Cork (-6.3%).
Consolidated EBITDA totalled €47.9 million in the first three months, up from €44.1 million in the same period of 2022. Despite the negative impacts of higher cork consumption prices and increased personnel costs, significant savings were made in terms of operating costs due to lower energy and transport prices. The EBITDA-sales ratio was 18.4% (1Q22: 16.7%)
The increase in earnings by associate companies was mainly due to the larger contribution made by Corchos de Argentina, which adopted the euro as its functional currency at the end of 2022.
Earnings attributable to non-controlling interests in the first quarter of 2023 were similar to those of the same period of the previous year.
After results attributable to non-controlling interests, net income totalled €23.8 million, an increase of 18.2% compared with the first three months of 2022.
Despite the generation of cash flows related to EBITDA, investment in non-current assets (€20 million) and working capital (€59 million) resulted in net debt increasing by €37 million to end the quarter at a total of €166 million.
The Raw Materials BU recorded sales growth of 20.7%, reflecting an increase in activity driven by greater demand from the other BUs in the Corticeira Amorim group.
EBITDA totalled €7.9 million, up from €7.1 million in the same period of the previous year. A reduction in the EBITDA margin (from 12.6% in 1Q22 to 11.7% in 1Q23) was mainly due to an increase in the consumption price of raw materials, despite an improvement in the sales mix, increased cork yields and lower operating costs (mainly for energy and transport).
The BU continues to develop the Forestry Intervention Project at Herdade de Rio Frio and Herdade da Baliza, with emphasis on new plantations and increased density in some areas.
Sales by the Cork Stoppers BU totalled €204.9 million, an increase of 5.9% compared with the same period of 2022.
Solid sales growth was driven by an improved mix and higher prices. Sales increased in all wine segments and in most cork stopper categories. The Neutrocork stopper continued to outperform other stopper categories for still wines.
In geographic terms, sales in the North American market showed robust growth following a less favourable performance in 2022, which was penalised by the bottling of high-end wines impacted by the forest fires of 2020.
The BU's EBITDA totalled €41.4 million (+25.3% year-on-year). The EBITDA margin was 20.2% (17.1% in the same period of 2022). Price increases, product mix improvements, lower energy costs and improved grinding yields were the main reasons for the increase in the EBITDA margin.
The Floor and Wall Coverings BU recorded sales of €25.8 million, a decrease of 32.8% compared with the same period of 2022. The drop reflects a significant decrease in activity levels due to an adverse environment in the markets where the BU operates, in line with the global trend of decelerating activity in the sector, particularly in the retail/residential segment. Despite sales price increases implemented by the BU, the drop-in sales were less significant for manufactured products than for trade products.
Sales declined across most products and regions. Sales in central Europe were strongly affected as the BU's most important market, Germany, showed no sign of reversal in the negative trend that began in the summer of 2022.
The BU registered a negative EBITDA of €1.2 million, compared with a positive EBITDA of €0.9 million in the same period of 2022. A reduction in operating activity due to lower sales was the main factor responsible for the deterioration in the EBITDA margin (from 2.5% to -4.7%), even though the margin benefited from a reduction in energy, transport and marketing costs.
Investment in new digital printing technology will enable the BU to rebuild its portfolio with more sustainable products with greater added value, laying the foundations for a recovery in profitability.
Sales by the Composite Cork BU sales totalled €27.3 million, a year-on-year decrease of 6.3% (€29.1 million). Although sales benefited from an improved product mix, price rises and the appreciation of the US dollar (at constant exchange rates, sales would have fallen by 7.2%). The drop-in sales compared with the first three months of 2022 mainly reflects a reduction in sales volumes, particularly in lower value-added segments.
The most profitable segments outperformed those with the lowest margins. The biggest increases in sales were in the Power Industry, Rail and Sports Surfaces segments. The biggest declines in sales were in the Distributors of Flooring & Related Products, Resilient & Engineered Flooring Manufacturers and Cork Specialists segments.
The positive contribution made by joint ventures, whose sales increased to €1.5 million (1Q22: €1.1 million), was particularly noteworthy.
EBITDA for the period totalled €4.5 million. The EBITDA margin was 16.6% (1Q22: 13.5%). The improvement in profitability, despite the decrease in volume sales and the increase in the price of the raw material cork consumed by the BU, mainly reflect an improved product mix, lower energy costs and the impact of favourable exchange rates (at constant exchange rates, the EBITDA margin would have been 14.6%).
Sales by the Insulation BU sales totalled €4.3 million, an increase of 25.7% compared with the same quarter of 2022. This strong sales growth reflects higher sales prices and an improved product mix, which together more than offset a drop-in sales volume.
The BU recorded a negative EBITDA of €0.3 million, down from a positive €0.8 million in the same period of 2022. The BU's EBITDA is highly sensitive to the price of cork, as it uses only cork as a raw material in the manufacture of its products. As a result, the context of rising cork prices had a significant impact on the BU's profitability. The EBITDA margin was also penalised by higher operating costs, although lower energy prices and an increase in grinding yields were favourable. Expected drops in volume sales and high consumer prices for cork are likely to keep margins under pressure.
As previously mentioned, the overall drop in sales (-1.4%) was mainly due to the reduction in sales by the Floor and Wall Coverings (BU), while, notably, the sales of the Cork Stoppers BU increased 5.9%.
The change in the percentage gross margin, which dropped from 53.7% to 52.5%, mainly reflects an increase in the consumption price of raw material cork.
In terms of operating expenses, the increase of approximately €2.2 million in personnel expenses (+4.7%) compared with the same period of 2022 is explained by salary increases and an increase in the average number of employees. External supplies and services costs decreased by 18.5% compared with the same period of 2022, mainly due to lower electricity (-€8 million, a decrease of 67%) and transport costs (-15%).
In terms of other categories of operating income and expenses that impact EBITDA, there was a favourable evolution of about €2.8 million. It should be noted that the impact of exchange rate differences on assets receivable and liabilities payable and the respective exchange rate risk hedges, which are included in other operating income/earnings, was negative and amounted to about -€0.6 million (1Q22: -€0.3 million).
EBITDA increased 8.7% to €47.9 million. The EBITDA-sales ratio was 18.4% (1Q22: 16.7%).

Non-recurring income was not recognised in this quarter. It will be recalled that in the same quarter of 2022, nonrecurring expenses totalling €3 million were recorded, mainly as a result of recording an impairment reflecting a prudent approach to the Group's exposure to Russia, Ukraine and Belarus.
Compared with the same period of 2022, the Group's financial results deteriorated, reflecting increases in the cost and average level of funding.
The earnings of Associates companies totalled €1.6 million. The increase compared with the same period of 2022 (1Q22: €1.3 million) mainly reflects an increased contribution in earnings by Corchos de Argentina, which adopted the Euro as its operating currency at the end of 2022. In this quarter, non-recurring results were not recognised. It should be recalled that, in the same quarter of 2022, non-recurring expenses totalling €3.0 million were recorded, which essentially resulted from the recording of an impairment that reflected a prudent approach to exposure to Russia, Ukraine and Belarus.
Compared to the same period of 2022, the financial results worsened, reflecting the increase in the cost and average level of funding.
As usual, it will only be possible to estimate the value of 2023 investment tax benefits (RFAI and SIFIDE) at the end of the financial year. As a result, any tax gain will be recorded only when the accounts for 2023 are concluded.
The value of non-controlling interests was in line with the same period of 2022 (€3.1 million vs €3.0 million).
After tax on earnings of €8.2 million and the allocation of earnings to non-controlling interests, net income attributable to Corticeira Amorim shareholders totalled €23.8 million, an increase of 18.2% compared with the net income of €20.1 million registered in 1Q22.

Earnings per share were €0.179 (1Q22: €0.151).
In terms of the Group's financial position, assets increased by €73 million compared with December 2022. By item, the increase in clients (€40 million), Other financial assets (€15 million) and Other assets (€15 million) merit highlighting. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by €14 million.
The change in Equity (excluding non-controlling interests) mainly reflects the Group's results for the period (+€24 million). The increase under Non-Controlling Interests (+€3 million) is due to the results registered for noncontrolling interests for the quarter.
In regard to Liabilities, the increase in interest-bearing debt (+€23 million), other financial liabilities (+€24 million) and income tax (+€14 million, resulting from an increase in estimated tax) are of particular note.
At the end of March 2023, Equity totalled €773 million. The financial autonomy ratio rose to 57.6%.

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, insulation and composites products are concentrated in Europe. 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.

Corticeira Amorim´s sales are composed by a wide range of products that are sold through all the five continents, over 100 countries. Due to this notorious variety of products and markets, it is not considered that this activity is concentrated in any special period of the year. Traditionally first half, specially the second quarter, has been the best in sales; third and fourth quarter switch as the weakest one.
