Consolidated Management Report

Dear Shareholders,

In accordance with the law, CORTICEIRA AMORIM S.G.P.S., S.A., a public company, presents its consolidated management report:

1. SUMMARY OF ACTIVITY

From August onwards, the climate for risk deteriorated during the third quarter of 2019, which was marked by increased acrimony between the US and China, leading to the termination of their trade talks. Uncertainty about the evolution of the process by which the UK plans to leave the European Union grew and investors increasingly opted for safe assets.

The US economy remained strong, but at a decelerating pace. The European economy underwent a slow-down. This was most notable in the industrial sector, with both production and order books contracting. The European Central Bank presented a comprehensive package of monetary policy measures, including a return to asset purchases. The ECB's future emphasis will be on fiscal policy, with the bank insisting that political leaders take the lead in combatting the economic slowdown.

Corticeira Amorim reported a 3.2% increase in consolidated sales for the first nine months, which totalled €602.6 million. A positive evolution of exchange rates contributed to this growth. Excluding this effect, sales growth would have been +2.2%. In terms of sales by Business Unit (BU), the Cork Stoppers (+5.3%), Composite Cork (+2,2%) and Insulation (+18.1%) BUs all made positive contributions.

EBITDA decreased to €96.8 million, a reduction of 10.7% compared with the same period of 2018. The EBITDA-sales ratio also fell in comparison with the same period of last year (from 18.6% to 16.1%). In a climate of increased pressure on the gross margin due to the higher price of the cork consumed by the Group, measures aimed at achieving operational efficiency gains, rigorous cost control and lower impairments continue to be implemented.

The adoption of IFRS 16 – Leasing standards did not have a significant impact on Corticeira Amorim's financial statements. As of September 30, 2019, the main impacts were: a €1.1 million increase in EBITDA, a €1.1 million increase in depreciations and a €4.6 million increase in debt.

Remunerated debt totalled €161.3 million at the end of September 2019, compared with €139.0 million at the end of 2018. Excluding the effect of adopting IFRS 16, this debt would have totalled €156.7 million at the end of September. Dividend payments, investments in tangible assets and working capital and the acquisition of stakes in subsidiary companies (mainly 50% of Vinolok and 10% of Bourrassé) largely accounted for the increase in debt.

After earnings attributable to non-controlling interests, net income totalled €54.4 million, a reduction of 7.1% compared with the €58.6 million recorded for the same period of 2018.

2. OPERATING ACTIVITIES

The Raw Materials BU recorded sales of €155.1 million, an increase of 15% on the same period of 2018. This reflected increased activity and higher sales prices. The BU's sales are mainly targeted at others companies within the Corticeira Amorim group.

EBITDA totalled €16.0 million, lower than in the first three quarters of 2018 (9M18: €24.2 million). Pressure on margins reflected the consumption of raw material cork acquired at higher prices as well as the lower yield of the cork consumed and increased operational costs. The BU's new disc production technology, which has been in operation since September, is expected to improve cork yields and margins.

The 2019 cork-purchasing campaign was completed by the end of the third quarter, with prices falling by about 6% to 7%. More cork was purchased than in the 2018 campaign, but the amount acquired was below expectations, due mainly to the weather.

The Cork Stoppers BU reported sales of €432.2 million, an increase of 5.3% compared with the same period of the previous year.

Sales increased across all sectors (still wines: 3%; sparkling wines: 8%; spirits: 11%). Led by the US and Italy, sales in terms of geographical markets were balanced. In the French market, sales reflected the weak harvest of 2017, particularly in regard to Bordeaux wines. Sales of NDTech® service stoppers rose to 43 million units in the first three quarters (9M18: 37 million units).

The BU's EBITDA rose to €78.5 million (+3.1% compared with the same period of 2018). The EBITDA margin remained stable at 18.2% (9M18: 18.5%). Increased raw material yields and efficiency gains practically offset increases in the prices of raw material cork and operating expenses.

The BU completed SAP (Systems, Applications and Products) implementation in its spirits and sparkling wine segments during the first half without any significant disruption to business activities. SAP implementation in the still wine segment was completed on November 1.

The BU registered non-recurring costs of €0.4 million related to restructuring and the acquisition of new subsidiary companies.

Sales by the Composite Cork BU totalled €78.8 million, an increase of 2.2% in comparison with the first nine months of 2018. The increase was supported by a favourable EUR/USD exchange rate and increased sale prices across the market.

In terms of segments, sales growth in the areas of resilient and engineering flooring and sports surfaces stood out, reflecting the BU's efforts to develop and launch new products. Sales decreased in the heavy construction, multi-purpose seals and gaskets and office products segments.

The BU maintains, and will continue to maintain, its principle focus on the circular economy, specifically the reuse and recycling of waste produced by other industries, as well geographic expansion (in the UK, Latin America and central Europe).

On September 30, EBITDA totalled €9.0 million, while the EBITDA margin rose to 11.4% (9M18: 10.7%) as a result of increased final product prices, improved cork grinding yields and the evolution of exchange rates.

Sales by the Floor and Wall Coverings BU fell 1.4% to €82.9 million. Trends in sales to North America and China remained negative, but were partially offset by increased sales to Scandinavia, Italy and Portugal.

The BU recorded a negative EBITDA of €2.2 million, reflecting spending related to the launch of the new line of WISE products (essentially development and marketing expenses). These factors had a bigger impact in the first half, with EBITDA in the third quarter being only marginally negative (-€0.2 million). The BU's negative performance also reflects a need for additional efficiency measures. It will be necessary to maintain the pace of implementing increased efficiency measures in areas such as logistics and industrial operations to reverse this negative trend. The measures involved non-recurring costs of €0.4 million related to restructuring.

Key factors for reversing the downward trend in the BU's results include repositioning the brand, rationalising the product portfolio, product development and measures for increasing productivity and operational efficiency.

Sales by the Insulation BU totalled €10.5 million, an increase of 18.1% compared with the same period of 2018. Greater activity levels, price increases, a favourable exchange rate and granulate sales to other BUs supported the increase.

Cork is the only raw material used by this BU and its profitability was significantly affected by the increased price of purchasing cork. In the third quarter, as expected, an inversion was registered in the impact of raw material prices on the BU's EBITDA (3Q19: +€0.3 million).

Non-recurring costs related to restructuring were registered in the amount of €0.2 million.

3. PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT AND FINANCIAL POSITION

The increase in sales resulted largely from increased prices, the evolution of exchange rates and, to a lesser extent, increased sales volumes. Excluding the impact of exchange rate fluctuations, sales would have increased by 2.2%. The change in the gross margin as a percentage of production, which fell from 49.2% to 48.1%, reflects an increase in production costs mainly due to the higher cost of raw materials.

CORTICEIRA AMORIM, SGPS, SA – CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 3rd QUARTER 2019 In terms of operating costs, the increase of about €4.5 million in staff costs (+4.4%) was almost entirely due to the increase in the average number of employees that was required to support the growth in business activity and the moving in-house of secondary market purchases. The cost of external supplies and services increased 3.5%. This reflects an increase in maintenance and repair and advertising costs. This was partially offset by a reduction in energy, subcontracting and rent costs. Impairments increased by €0.4 million.

The negative change in other operating income/expenses with an impact on EBITDA rose to about €1.1 million. 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 approximately €0.5 million (9M18: +€0.2 million).

Due to the decrease in profitability and the other changes previously referred to, EBITDA decreased by 10.7% to €96.8 million. The EBITDA-sales ratio was 16.1% (9M18: 18.6%).

The non-recurring costs recorded (€1.0 million) reflect the recognition of the transaction and restructuring costs of subsidiary companies.

Financial expenses in the first three quarters totalled €1.3 million, a significant variation compared with the same period of 2018 (€2.2 million). The expenses reflect the updating of Bourrassé's financial liabilities. Due to a revision of Bourrassé's forecast earnings, the impact of the 2019 update is positive. In spite of the higher level of interest rate costs due to the increase in average debt, this resulted in a decrease in financial expenses in comparison with the first nine months of 2018.

Income from associate companies totalled €5.7 million. The increase in relation to the same period of 2018 (9M18: €2.1 million) reflects the recognition as earnings of the final part of the contingent amount receivable from the sale of US Floors (€2.4 million) as well as an improvement in the contribution from Trescasses (€1 million) and the inclusion of the contribution from Vinolok (€0.7 million).

In regard to taxation, the Group benefitted from the reversal of provisions, mainly resulting from the final inspection that allowed the use of tax losses at a Spanish subsidiary and the recognition of investment tax benefits from 2018, the value of which was only determined in 2019. As usual, it will only be possible to estimate the amount investment tax benefits (RFAI e SIFIDE) at the close of the financial year.

After estimated tax of €16 million and the allocation of profits to non-controlling interests, net income attributable to CORTICEIRA AMORIM shareholders totalled €54.4 million, a decrease of 7.1% compared with the income of €58.6 million recorded on September 2018.

Earnings per share were €0.409 (9M18: €0.441).

In terms of the financial position, total net assets at the end of September 2019 amounted to €1.043 billion. Compared to December 2018 (€966 million), changes included inventories (+€21 million), other debtors (+€13 million resulting mainly from advances to suppliers and VAT receivable) and investment in associate companies (+€13 million resulting mainly from the acquisition of Vinolok).

The change in the second balance sheet item (equity and liabilities) reflects the recognition of net income for the period (+€54.4 million), dividends distributed (-€24.6 million), the increase in remunerated debt (+€28 million) and corporate income tax (+€18 million).

At the end of September 2019, net interest-bearing debt totalled €161.3 million (12M18: €139.0 million). Excluding the impact of adopting IFRS 16, as mentioned above, net interest-bearing debt would have totalled €156.7 million. EBITDA generated by business activities was used in capital investment, working capital requirements and to pay for acquisitions (mainly Vinolok and the 10% of the acquisition of Bourrassé that was included in the purchase agreement).

Equity totalled €529.1 million at the end of September 2019. The financial autonomy ratio rose to 50.7%.

CORTICEIRA AMORIM, SGPS, SA – CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 3rd QUARTER 2019

(page intentionally left blank)

I - INTRODUCTION

At the beginning of 1991, Corticeira Amorim, S.A. was transformed into CORTICEIRA AMORIM, S.G.P.S., S.A., the holding company for the cork business sector of the Amorim Group. In this report, CORTICEIRA AMORIM will be the designation of CORTICEIRA AMORIM, S.G.P.S., S.A., and in some cases the designation of CORTICEIRA AMORIM, S.G.P.S. together with all of its subsidiaries.

CORTICEIRA AMORIM is mainly engaged in the acquisition and transformation of cork into a numerous set of cork and cork related products, which are distributed worldwide through its network of sales company.

CORTICEIRA AMORIM is a Portuguese company with a registered head office in Mozelos, Santa Maria da Feira. Its share capital amounts to 133 million euros, and is represented by 133 million shares, which are publicly traded in the Euronext Lisbon – Sociedade Gestora de Mercados Regulamentados, S.A.

The company Amorim - Investimentos e Participações, S.G.P.S, S.A. held, on December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2019, 67,830,000 shares of CORTICEIRA AMORIM corresponding to 51.00 % of its share capital. CORTICEIRA AMORIM is included in the consolidation perimeter of Amorim – Investimentos e Participações, S.G.P.S., S.A., this being its controlling parent company. Amorim – Investimentos e Participações, S.G.P.S. is fully owned by Amorim family.

These financial statements were approved in the Board Meeting of November 4, 2019. Shareholders have the capacity to modify these financial statements even after their release.

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

II - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2019 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 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, 2018, except for the adoption of the new standards whose application became effective on December 1, January 2019 and the application of IFRS 16 implied the changes referred to in the following paragraphs.

IFRS 16 was issued in January 2016 and replaced IAS 17 Leases, IFRIC 4 Determine if an Agreement contains a Lease, SIC 15 Operational Leases - Incentives and SIC 27 Evaluation of the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease. IFRS 16 sets out the principles applicable to the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases and requires tenants to account for all leases in their balance sheets in accordance with a single model similar to that currently provided for in IAS 17 for finance leases.

The standard provides for two exemptions of recognition for tenants - lease contracts where assets have little value, and short-term lease contracts (ie contracts with a duration of 12 months or less).

At the commencement date of the lease, the lessee will recognize the liability for future lease payments (ie the lease liability) and the asset representing the right to use the asset during the lease period (ie the asset under right of use). Tenants will have to recognize separately the financial cost related to the lease liability and the cost of depreciation or amortization of the asset under the right of use.

Under the rule, tenants will have to remeasure the lease liability when certain events occur (for example, a change in the lease period, a change in lease payments as a consequence of a change in a payments). Tenants will recognize the amount of this remeasurement in the lease liability as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset.

The lessor's accounting in accordance with IFRS 16 remains substantially unchanged from the accounting currently provided for in IAS 17. The lessor continues to classify all leases using the same IAS 17 classification principle and distinguishing between two types of lease: operating leases and financial institutions.

IFRS 16, which enters into force for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019 requires lessors and lessees disclosures that are more extensive than those required by IAS 17.

Transition to IFRS 16

The Group adopted IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective method: recognition of the cumulative effect, in the first period of application of the standard, without restatement of comparatives, as an adjustment to equity in the opening balance sheet of the period in which the standard is adopted. The Group applied the standard to all contracts that were previously identified as leases under IAS 17 and IFRIC 4. As a result, the Group did not apply the standard to contracts that were not previously identified as containing a lease.

The Group has decided to apply the exemptions provided for in the standard for leases whose lease term ends within the next 12 months from the initial application date, and for lease contracts for which the underlying asset has little value. The Group has lease agreements for certain types of administrative equipment (such as personal computers, printing machines and photocopiers) which the Group considers to be of little value.

The main impacts of adopting IFRS 16 were an increase in EBITDA of €1.1 M, an increase in depreciation of €1.2 M and an increase of € 4.6M in debt at September 30, 2019.

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

EBITDA = Profit before interests, depreciation, equity method, non-controlling interests and income tax.

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

Segments assets do not include DTA (deferred tax asset) and non-trade group balances.

Segments liabilities do not include DTL (deferred tax liabilities), bank loans and non-trade group balances.

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 kinds 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 95% of its sales to others BU, specially to Cork Stoppers BU. Main products are bark and discs.

The remaining BU produce and sell a vast number of cork products made from cork stoppers waste. 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.
