4. ESTORIL-SOL FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

1ST QUARTER SUMMARY

Game Revenues

During the first quarter of 2019 the total gross game revenues of the Estoril-Sol Group (territorial and online) amounted to 54,8 million Euros, with an overall growth of 1,5%. Game revenues generated by the territorial operation decreased 4,3% and amounted to 46,2 million Euros. Revenues from the territorial operation fell in all casinos of Group Estoril-Sol, with special relevance for Casino Estoril and Casino da Póvoa. Online game revenues grew 50,9% driven by sports betting and amounted to 8,6 million Euros — see 4A and 4B.

Group Consolidated Results

In the first quarter of 2019 the Group's Consolidated EBITDA decreased by 14% and amounted to 9,2 million Euros. As at 31st March 2019 the Group reported positive consolidated net results of 4,5 million Euros, an overall decrease of 18% compared to the same period from last year — see 4C.

Performance by Segment/Casino

During the first quarter of 2019 all of the Group land based casinos worsened their results compared to the same period last year. Casino Estoril and Casino Póvoa Casino have negative net results, but the operating results of these casinos are positive.

The online operation significantly improved its results in the first quarter of 2019. This improvement stems essentially from the good performance of gaming revenues, which has occurred both in casino games and in the sports betting segment — see infographic 4D.

Capex

The Group's investment remained in line with previous years, although it has slightly decreased. In the first quarter of 2019, the Group made investments totaling 0,2 million Euros — see 4E.

Financial Debt

In a concerted effort to financial stability and less dependence on third parties, the Group has consistently reduced its bank debt, this reduction resulted in a significant decrease in financial costs incurred by the Group. By the end of March 2019 the Group bank debt was 3,9 million Euros — see 4F.

5. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS

During the first quarter of 2019, the Group recorded combined gross game revenues, territorial and online, of 54,8 million Euros, with an overall growth

of 1,5%. Net from gaming taxes, the Group's total game revenues amounted to 25,7 million Euros, a decrease of 2,2% over the 26,2 million Euros achieved in the first quarter of the previous year.

The net game revenue decrease is related to the application of the annual gaming tax minimum consideration in the case of Casino da Póvoa and with the sports betting taxes whose tax base is the value of the bets placed by the players and not the gross revenue (total bets placed minus players winnings) as in other casino games, be it territorial or online. Casino da Póvoa gross game revenues decrease and the exponential growth in gaming revenues generated by sports betting are the basis of an higher effective tax rate borne by the Group when compared to the previous year, which leads to the Group net game revenues decrease.

The other operating revenues of Estoril-Sol, restaurant and entertainment, decreased by 2,8% to 2,2 million Euros. The Group's 4,4% increase in operating costs reflects the Group's investment in streamlining and increasing the entertainment, leisure and restaurant offer in the casinos, but mainly reflects the strong investment in marketing and advertising carried out by the Group in the first quarter of 2019 related with the online casino operation. This strong commitment and investment during the first quarter of 2019, in line with the investment policy also adopted during the last year, proved to be essential to the growth and market share increase of this new operation, the online casino.

The increase in gaming revenues in the first quarter of 2019 was not enough to keep up with the strong marketing and advertising investment, combined with the increase in the effective tax rate borne by the Group (from 51% in 2018 to 53% in 2019) led to a deterioration of the Group's operating results by 13,5%, with the Group registering a positive

6. RELEVANT FACTS

During the first quarter of 2013, after a unanimous vote taken at the headquarters of the Portuguese Association of Casinos as well as within the Board of Estoril-Sol, the operating companies from the Group Estoril-Sol, have filed lawsuits against the State in which they seek to be restored the financial balance of Gaming Concessions. Such a claim is founded, among other reasons, because the State, through its actions and omissions has given rise to changes in circumstances that were the basis for the negotiation of the gaming concessions. Of them highlights the fact that it was assumed for tax basis a continuing and significant

increase of gaming revenue throughout the concession period. Despite not having checked this proposition due to the economic climate and as a result of the State attitude in relation to online gambling and illegal gambling, among others, it continued to require them to pay very high taxes, calculated on revenue that the Concessionaires did not obtain. Thus, remained no alternative to the Concessionaires that was not to challenge with the competent Administrative and Fiscal Courts the settlements of tax to which they were presented, and for that purpose submit the necessary judicial guarantees. However by the time of approval of this report, and despite the fact that all tax settlements were contested by the Group, all taxes are without exception, or paid or its payment was legally postponed under Decree-Law 1/2015, and for this reason the Group Estoril-Sol does not have any overdue debt related with game taxes. (note 15 and 16 to the consolidated accounts).

7. SUBSEQUENT FACTS

Between the 31st of March 2019 and the date of this report, no relevant facts occurred that could materially affect the financial position and the future results of Estoril-Sol, S.G.P.S.,S.A. and the other Companies of the Group.

Some of the financing operations, mainly bank loans, include commitments to maintain certain financial ratios based on contractually negotiated limits (financial covenants).

These ratios are:

• Net Debt / Ebitda;

• Financial autonomy.

On the 31st March 2019 and 31st December 2018, these ratios were according the contractually negotiated limits.

Depending on the operating funds that are freed up, we feel the financial risk to which the associated undertak-ings are exposed is minimal, and the same understanding has prevailed in the examination carried out by financial institutions, as shown by the fact that assets guarantees are dispensed with for operations under contract.

The amount included in the column "Nominal value" corresponds to the contracted value that is still owing. The column "Balance sheet value" is added to the nominal value of financial charges already incurred but still not due, less interest and or commissions paid in advance.

16. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND ASSETS, GUARANTEES AND COMMITMENTS

Contingent liabilities

In the normal course of its business, the Group is involved in several legal proceedings. In result of their nature and provisions and according to the opinion of legal advisors, the expectation is that, from the respective out-come, there will be no material effects that are not yet recognized in the financial statements as of March 31st, 2019 and December 31st, 2018. The most relevant processes are as follows:

The main situations are the following:

• Differences in understanding between the Group and the Tax Authorities over Corporation Tax (IRC), relating to the years 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010, with regard to the taxation of undocumented expenses incurred in the course of the gaming activity of subsidiaries that form part of the Group and which operate games of fortune as their main activity. During the year 2013 occurred the 1st instance verdict contrary to the allegations and convictions of the Group relating to the process for the years 2007 to 2009. It is the Company's belief, grounded in fa-vourable opinions from legal advisers, that a final decision should be favourable, which is why the Group appealed to higher courts. On the date of these financial statements there are also previous legal decisions that are in the Group's favour, as well as judicial jurisprudence which is favourable to the Group on this matter. Even so, on this date the Group has bank guarantees provided in favour of the Finance Office of Cascais amounting to 7.197.635 Euros. The Group's Board of Directors, based on the above, and based on the opinion of its legal and tax advisors, considers only to be possible and unfavourable outcome for the Group although not probable, and therefore no provision was recorded in the financial statements for the year.

• The Group carried out a collective dismissal in 2010 and 2013 in the Casinos of Lisbon, Estoril and Póvoa de Varzim in the terms established in the Law, which included 133 employees. Some of these employees brought up an action to the Court for annulment of the dismissal and reinstatement within the Group. On December 31, 2018, the collective dismissal process regarding the Casinos of Lisbon and Estoril culminated in a favorable de-cision for the Group, with the exception of five employees, who were reinstated in the Group's staff. The remaining employees received compensation corresponding to the legal obligations provided for in labor legislation in case of collective redundancies, in line with the provision recorded in the Group's accounts in the previous years. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2018, the collective dismissal process regarding Casino da Póvoa presented an unfavourable decision to the Group, having the Group filed an appeal of the decision. The Group increased the provision recorded in the accounts to cover its liability, taking into account the legal opinions of its legal counsel, which amounts to approximately €+2,800,000 as of December 31, 2018.

• In 2011 Gastronomic Evolution - Gestão de Restaurantes, Lda., a former concessionaire of three restaurants in Casino de Lisboa, filed a lawsuit against the Group requiring compensation for loss of customers in relation to expectations that would have been previously generated. The total amount claimed amounts to 906,630 Euros, which is provisioned in the financial statements as of March 31st, 2019 and December 31st, 2018

• On 31st March 2019 and 31st December 2018, the Group has been involved in various cases associated with interdicted players, alleging that the concessionaires have not complied with the prohibition order, at the en-trance of the various Casinos operated, to which the same customers were subject, demanding a claim for compensation for the alleged non-compliance. The Board of Directors, based on the opinion of its legal advisors and in view of the historic resolution of such cases, recognized in the financial statements as of March 31st, 2019 and December 31st, 2018, liabilities estimated at 147,000 Euros.

• In January 2009, a machine from Casino de Lisboa announced a fake Jackpot on a gaming machine of 4,232,774 Euros, and the customer involved, despite being informed about the machine error, filed a lawsuit against the Group to demand amount. The Board of Directors, supported by its legal advisors and the expert ev-idence prepared by the suppliers of those machines and by the Gaming Regulation and Inspection Service, where it is concluded that there has been a malfunction of the computer system which presented the prize, considers it is probable to obtain a favourable outcome for the Group, for which a provision of approximately 200,000 Euros was recorded.

Contingent Assets

In January 2013, the Group, together with other gambling concessionaires with gambling in Portugal, filed a lawsuit against the Portuguese State in order to restore the economic and financial rebalancing of the conces-sion. This process includes the challenges of monthly special income taxes and the annual liquidations of 2012 to 2013, and the liquidations of the annual counterparts from 2014 to 2016, all settled in accordance with De-cree-Law - nº 275/2001, so that, in the opinion of the legal and tax advisors of the Group, in the case of favour-able decision on the referred objections, the liquidations will be refunded plus interest. In September 2016, the Administrative and Fiscal Court of Sintra ruled in favour of the Group on the unlaw-fulness of the clearance of the income tax payment of October 2013 on automatic machines and charged the Group with its share of responsibility for the value of court expenses, which for the actions involved in this proceeding were estimated as of approximately, 2,501,000 Euros. The Board of Directors, supported by the opinion of its legal and tax advi-sors, recognized the corresponding liability, considering the complaint presented on the amount of these court expenses, in the amount of 1,250,000 Euros.
