1. Operating Activities

In an economic climate marked by a downturn in global growth, namely in developed economies, and in which fuel and electricity prices continue to see substantial rises against the previous year, Cimpor once again showed its resilience to an adverse situation by posting 0.9% EBITDA growth in the first nine months of 2011 against the same period of the previous year.

Although the 3rd quarter of 2011 was marked by greater drops in EBITDA in Portugal (contraction of the domestic market due to the economic climate) and in Egypt (political and social instability and increased competition), the continued good performance of Brazil and notable EBITDA growth in Mozambique (improved industrial performance made it possible to take advantage of strong demand) led to Cimpor continuing to post very positive results over the year.

Both in Portugal and in Spain 2011 has been characterized by a fall in cement and clinker sales due to contraction of their respective markets, and this trend became more marked in the 3rd quarter. It should be noted that, particularly in Portugal, Cimpor has bucked the drop in the domestic market through exports, although to a lesser extent than in 2010 due to a fall in the amount of clinker sent to Egypt. However, exports and the slightly favourable development of sales prices in Portugal were not enough to make up for the rise in fuel prices, and EBITDA posted a drop of 23.7% in the first nine months of the year. EBITDA for the 3rd quarter was also negatively affected by the sale of fewer CO2 licenses than in the same period of the previous year.

In Spain, thanks essentially to the more positive behaviour of sales prices, EBITDA posted a rise of 10.7% for the year so far.

In Cape Verde sales of cement in the first three quarters saw a slight drop against the previous year although due to a rise in price and the good performance of the Concrete and Aggregates businesses, the country's EBITDA posted growth of almost 26% against 2010.

EBITDA (€ Million) 165.7 143.4 15.6 58.9 54.0 9.1

The Brazilian market remains the main engine of Cimpor growth. Increased demand in the country led to a rise in cement and clinker sales of 7.4% in the first nine months of 2011 against the previous year. In the 3rd quarter of the year sales rose 3.2%, somewhat held back by rain in southern regions particularly in the months of July and August. The rise in sales prices, improved industrial performance and a substantial increase in concrete business also contributed to 15.6% growth in EBITDA from January to September 2011. It should also be noted that results from Brazil were negatively affected in the 3rd quarter of 2011 by the depreciation of the Real against the Euro.

In Morocco, where cement and clinker sales rose 4.0% in the first nine months of the year (and around 9% in the 3rd quarter), EBITDA has been affected by a slight drop in sales prices as a result of increased competition (entrance of a new operator).

In Tunisia Cimpor business has not been substantially affected by social and political events and the same level of sales as in 2010 has been maintained over the year. Despite a considerable rise in the cost of fuel and some depreciation of the Tunisian Dinar, the rise in sales prices made it possible for EBITDA to grow by 2.0% against the first nine months of 2010.

Unlike in Tunisia, in Egypt Cimpor has been affected by the so-called "Arab Spring." A drop in demand and increased competition due to new capacities led to cement and clinker sales falling 15.4% in the first nine months of the year against the same period of the previous year. Despite these events, in the 3rd quarter of the year the fall was just 4.7%. However, a drop in sales prices, a rise in operating costs, namely electricity, and the significant depreciation of the Egyptian Pound led to year to date EBITDA dropping by over 40%.

In Turkey, as a result of remarkable economic dynamism, cement and clinker sales rose 8.7% in the first nine months of 2011 compared to the same period of 2010. Sales prices were also very positive and only the strong depreciation of the Turkish Lira, particularly in the 3rd quarter of 2011, held back EBITDA, which, in local currency rose almost 60%, from posting even greater growth over the 38.4% seen over the year.

Despite a drop in cement consumption in the country, although with lesser influence in its natural markets, Cimpor sales in South Africa rose almost 6% over the year. This increment in sales was achieved through a strategy to contain imports with some negative impact on price (although it improved in the 3rd quarter of the year). Thus, and despite the very substantial rises in fuel and particularly electricity prices, EBITDA in South Africa fell by just 1.8% in the first nine months of 2011. In the 3rd quarter EBITDA rose 5.5% against the same period of 2010.

The very positive performance of Mozambique in 2011 should be noted, particularly in the 3rd quarter of the year. In this quarter, as a result of the sharp improvement in industrial performance (as a result of the rehabilitation programme underway), cement and clinker sales rose 20.7%, Turnover rose more than 50% (rise in prices and appreciation of the Metical) and EBITDA was practically 9 times higher than that posted in the 3rd quarter of 2010. As a result, accumulated EBITDA for the year posted a rise of almost 85% against 2010.

In China, despite a drop in cement and clinker sales of 4.2% in the first nine months of the year (and a significant drop in the 3rd quarter), Cimpor has posted a notable recovery in 2011. A substantial rise in sales prices (as a result of more favourable market conditions) and several management measures put into practice made it possible to rise from negative EBITDA in 2010 to around 21 million euros in the first nine months of 2011.

In India, and despite sales in the 3rd quarter being quite positive when compared to those of the same period of 2010, increased competition and a sharp rise in costs, namely of fuel and electricity (in both cases of over 20%) led to EBITDA from January to September 2011 falling 33.7% against the same period of 2010.

2. Global Performance

Sales

Consolidated cement and clinker sales in the first nine months of 2011 totalled around 20.8 million tons, a fall of 2.5% against the 21.3 million tons posted in the same period of 2010, mainly due to the Iberian and Egyptian markets.

In the 3rd quarter of the year, essentially as a result of sharper drops in Portugal, Spain and China, sales totalled around 7.0 million tons, thus posting a fall of 6.0% against the same quarter of 2010.

Turnover

Cimpor consolidated Turnover, due to price rises in most of the countries and despite the aforementioned drop in sales in the Iberian Peninsula and in Egypt and the depreciation of most of the currencies, totalled €1,741 Million from January to September 2011, rising 3.6% year on year.

In the 3rd quarter of the year, as a result of lower sales, Cimpor consolidated Turnover totalled €591.5 Million, a slightly lower figure than that for the 3rd quarter of 2010.

EBITDA

In the first nine months of the year Cimpor EBITDA reached €479.2 Million, rising 0.9% against the same period of 2010.

The positive development of sales prices (a rise of 7% on average, excluding exchange rate effects) and the various aspects of the efficiency improvement programme implemented by Cimpor continued, in absolute terms, to offset significant rises in the main production factors, namely fuels (which rose almost 20% on average) and electricity. However, EBITDA margin fell around 0.8 p.p. to 27.5%.

By country, the significant rises in EBITDA seen in Brazil and China, and, despite having less of an overall impact, in Turkey and in Mozambique more than made up for drops seen in Egypt and Portugal.

In relation to the 3rd quarter of the year, a drop in sales and depreciation of some currencies, particularly the Brazilian Real, the Turkish Lira and the South African Rand led to EBITDA falling 7.3% against the same quarter of the previous year.

3. Financial Income and Taxes

Financial Income was negative by €49.2 Million in the first nine months of the year against €48.1 Million in the same period of the previous year, affected by a provision for impairment of C+PA carried out in the value of €13.2 Million.

The evolution of Financial Results, namely the rise in net interests, is essentially due to two factors: (1) increased interest rates of the money markets, which had repercussions on charges for servicing financial debts indexed to variable rates (partially offset greater interest on cash and deposits), and (2) replacement of instruments contracted in 2007 and 2008 (with historically low spreads) by others that incorporate a rise in loan costs resulting from the financial crisis.

In the 3rd quarter of 2011, moves in the exchange rates significantly reduced gains made in the first half.

In the period from January to September 2011 Income Tax totalled €65.1 Million. Although the actual tax rate was higher in the 3 rd quarter of 2011 than in the same period of 2010, because of improved results in jurisdictions with higher rates, the actual rate year to date was substantially lower than the previous year due, mainly, to adjustments of taxable basis and the impact in 2010 of applying a Portuguese state surcharge on current and deferred taxes.

At September 30th 2011, Cimpor Net Assets were €5.086 Billion, a fall of 5.6% against December 31st 2010, mainly due to the depreciation against the euro of the majority of currencies in which Cimpor holds its assets.

Amongst the investments made in the 3rd quarter of 2011, a highlight is the acquisition of the "Temara" ship for US\$25.5 million, replacing the "Niebla" sold a year ago for US\$9.7 Million. Regarding the Investment Plan in Brazil, through which Cimpor will increase its cement production capacity with own clinker in that country in around 50%, the main production equipment for the new plant of Caxitu (Paraíba State, Northeast) and for the new line of the Cezarina plant (Goiás State, Centre-West) have been selected.

Cimpor Net Financial Debt, at September 30th 2011 reached €1.627 Billion, having increased by €66 Million against December 31st 2010, a variation which incorporates the effect of dividend payment.

Net Debt/EBITDA ratio at September 30th 2011 was 2.57x, which was slightly lower than the 2.66x seen one year ago, well under contractually established covenants.

In the 3rd quarter of 2011 Cimpor continued with its new financing operations policy, both with new banking partners and consolidation of previous credit lines into medium and long term instruments. Envisaging the continuous improvement of its financing structure, Cimpor also undertook the update of its "Euro Medium Term Note Programme" (EMTN), established in 2009.

Also noteworthy is the fact that in this latest quarter Standard & Poor's (S&P) reaffirmed Cimpor short and long-term ratings, considering also the Company's liquidity level as "adequate" and qualifying as "low" the exposure to Portuguese sovereign risk.

On 30th September, 2011 the fair value of the total ODS Options was 1,356 thousand euros (established through use of the Black-Scholes model), and in the period a cost of 207 thousand euros was established as well as a liability in the same amount.

(a) Due to certain derivative financial instruments for hedging exchange rate, these financings are not exposed to exchange-rate risk.

Credit lines obtained but not used

As at 30 September 2011 and 31 December 2010, credit lines obtained but not used, excluding commercial paper that has not been underwritten, are close to 878 million euros and 1,360 million euros, respectively.

Control of the subsidiary companies

The majority of the loan operations of the operating and sub-holding companies do not establish the need for Cimpor – Cimentos de Portugal, SGPS, S.A. to maintain majority control of the companies. However the most significant bank loans, in particular those contracted by Cimpor Inversiones, contain an Ownership Clause.

The comfort letters requested from the holding company, for purposes of contracting these operations, usually contain a commitment for it not to sell its direct or indirect control of these companies.

Comfort letters

At 30 September 2011 and 31 December 2010 the comfort letters provided by the Company and other subsidiaries amounted to 146,037 thousand euros and 90,309 thousand euros, respectively.

Financial covenants

In the larger financial operations the loan contracts also contain financial covenants for certain financial ratios to be maintained at previously agreed levels.

The financial ratios are:

  • Net debt / EBITDA, at consolidated level;
  • EBITDA / (Financial expenses Financial income), at consolidated level;
  • Quantitative limits on the indebtedness of operating companies ("Subordination ratios")

At 30 September 2011 and 31 December 2010 these ratios were within the commitments established.

Change of control

Various financing instruments include change of control clauses that can even provide for the possibility of early repayment by decision of the creditors, if 51% of the capital is controlled by a single entity or several entities acting in consortium. At 30 September 2011, the debt attributable to financial instruments containing such a clause amounted to 1.935 billion of euros, of which 1.624 billion euros are registered as non-current financial debt.

The penalties that the creditor can apply in the event of unremedied non-compliance or acceptance of these financial constraints within an agreed time period generally comprises the early repayment in full of the loan obtained or the cancellation of the credit lines available. At 30

September 2011 and 31 December 2010, the Group fully complied with all the above mentioned financial constraints.

21. Derivative financial instruments

Fair value of derivative financial instruments

The fair value of derivative financial instruments at 30 September 2011 and 31 December 2010 was as follows:

Other assets Other liabilities
Current asset Non-current assets Current asset Non-current assets
2011 2010 2011 2010 2011 2010 2011 2010
Fair value hedges:
Exchange and interest rate swaps - - - - 184 - - -
Interest rate swaps 220 9,397 - - - - 865 -
Exchange rate forwards 86 13 - - - - - -
Trading:
Exchange and interest rate derivatives 972 2,784 - - 1,212 - 33,253 39,363
Interest rate derivatives 643 2,992 941 3,300 2,050 7,551 7,370 34,025
1,920 15,187 941 3,300 3,446 7,551 41,489 73,388

Some derivatives, although in compliance with the Group's risk management policies as regards the management of financial market volatility risks, do not qualify for hedge accounting, and so are classified as trading instruments.

During the first quarter of 2011 the Group bought back much of the interest rates derivatives, classified as trading, which essentially justifies the decrease in that caption, and whose payment amounting to 31,497 thousand euros is evidenced in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows under "Payments relating to interest and similar costs".

This operation reduces significantly the Group's exposure to financial instruments measured at fair value enabling a lower volatility of Group´s future results.

22. Notes to the consolidated cash flow statements

Cash and cash equivalents at 30 September 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

488,202 456,398

23. Related parties

Transactions and balances between Group companies consolidated by the full consolidation method or by the proportional consolidation method were eliminated in the consolidation process and so are not disclosed in this note. The balances and transactions between the Group and associated companies and with other related parties fall within normal operational activities, emphasizing the following:

  • Conclusion of the acquisition from its shareholder Camargo Corrêa Cimentos, S.A. of a 51% shareholding of CINAC (Note 4).
  • An agreement was signed on 30th September, 2011 and later made official on 27th July, 2011 between the Cimpor Group and Arenor, S.L. by which all the assets belonging to Arenor and its Group of Companies in Andalucia, operating in quarrying and sales of aggregates and production and sale of ready-mix concrete the latter transferred , for around 27 million euros. In turn, the Cimpor Group transferred its entire stake in the Company to Arenor, via a prior agreement to reduce the company's share capital, for around 11 million euros. This operation was carried out in the form of asset swap and regularization of current accounts, and involved no financial settlement. With this operation the Cimpor Group, maintains the industrial profile of its business in the aggregate and concrete sub-sector in Andalucia, now with ownership of quarries and land and has entirely uncoupled itself from Arenor and, on its side, Arenor has brought an end to all its manufacturing activities in Spain, in the aforementioned sectors.

  • As a result of the approval at the last Company General Meeting for the attribution of share options outlined in the Regulations for the CIMPOR Plan for Attribution of Options for Sustainable Development – ODS Plan ("ODS Regulations") and the repeal of the 2004 Regulations, an agreement was made with the three members of Cimpor's Executive Commission that held derivative options attributed under the terms of the Plans outlined in those Regulations, with the approval of the Audit Board, for a settlement of the value of those options via a cash payment, 50 percent was immediately paid and the remainder over three years with interest, in a total of 321 thousand euros, and the delivery of 103 thousand ODS options, in the proportion of two ODS options for every three of the extinct options.

  • With the changes to Cimpor's Statutes, approved at the last General Meeting, the right to pension supplements for directors was extinguish and as a consequence a compensation of 3 million euros was agreed, an amount that was already partially provisioned for through post-employment provisions.

24. Contingent liabilities, guarantees and commitments

At 30 September 2011, the most significant changes that had occurred since 31st December, 2010, were as follows:

Contingent Liabilities

In Spain, as a result of the partial acceptance of the objections put forward by Group companies, notifications were received that tax settlements for 2002 to 2004, originally of around 35 million euros, had been reduced to around 30 million euros, and the appeal to higher courts will continue in line with the defence outlined by the Board of Directors and its tax consultants, drawn up at the beginning of these proceedings.

In Egypt, the cement companies were notified in July, 2011 of additional settlements on the tax for consumption of clay for cement production, for the period May 2008 to June 2010. The additional taxes now settled are based on literal compliance with a provision that has a clearly and recognisably mistaken in the amount of the industry's real clay consumption. This issue had been discussed with the authorities at the end of last year and was thought to have been overcome. The amount in settlements payable by our companies, including an estimate of late payment interest, totals around 42 million euros, and Cimpor has taken the appropriate legal steps.

The recent review in Brazil of the proceedings for tax settlements identified contingent liabilities of up to around 53 million euros and led to an increase in provisions of approximately 8 million euros (Note 19).

CIMPOR – CIMENTOS DE PORTUGAL, SGPS, S. A. 41

Guarantees

Granting of a guarantee, under a pledged deposit made at a bank of CGD Group, of around 14 million euros, in relation of a loan taken out by a subsidiary. This deposit was classified as noncurrent assets under "Other Investments" (Note 13).

Commitments

Increase in commitments in the approximate amount of 127 million euros essentially related to the acquisition of fixed tangible assets.

25. Financial statements approval

These financial statements for the nine months ended 30 September 2011 were approved by the Board of Directors on 7 November 2011.

26. Note added for translation

These consolidated financial statements are a translation of financial statements originally issued in Portuguese. In the event of discrepancies the Portuguese language version prevails.
