MAIN CORPORATE EVENTS DURING THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2007

Sonae Group companies continued to pursue their growth strategies. The main corporate developments in the period were:

  • On 27 July 2007, Sonae Distribuição SGPS, SA, announced that it reached an agreement with the Carrefour Group for the acquisition of 99.8648% of the share capital of Carrefour (Portugal) – Sociedade de Exploração de Centros Comerciais, SA, for a total enterprise value of 662 million euro. The transaction is still subject to approval by the Portuguese Competition Authority.
  • On 24 August 2007, the Portuguese Competition Authority released final approval for the acquisition of Oni's residential and SOHO customer base. As the final consideration was dependent on the number of customers effectively transferred to Novis, this was adjusted from the initial 25 million euro to 20 million euro. 75% of the non-adjusted consideration was paid and the last instalment will be paid by the end of the year.
  • On 31 August 2007, Sonae Capital sold Isoroy Casteljaloux, a producer of softboard for acoustic and thermal insulation, generating a proceed of 1.3 million euro.
  • On 4 September 2007, the Portuguese Competition Authority released final approval for the acquisition of Tele2 Portugal. In the quarter, Sonaecom paid

14.4 million euro, corresponding to 90% of the total consideration of 16 million euro.

  • On 28 September 2007, Sonaecom, SGPS, SA announced that WeDo Consulting – Sistemas de Informação, SA had signed an agreement for the acquisition of the total share capital of Cape Technologies Limited, a company incorporated in the Republic of Ireland, with 120 employees, that operates internationally in information systems for the telecommunication industry. The consideration for this acquisition will be 17 million euro plus an additional amount of up to 3 million euro, conditional to the achievement of certain pre-agreed targets. With this acquisition, WeDo becomes the world leader in Revenue Assurance solutions for the Telecoms sector.
  • Recently, Sonaecom announced that it had begun the process of merging its Mobile and Fixed divisions. This operation that has been approved by both ANACOM (the Portuguese Telecoms Regulator) and the Minister for Public Works, Transport and Communications, represents an internal reorganisation forming part of the development of the company's integrated telecoms strategy.

Prior to the date of this report:

  • On 18 October 2007, Sonae Capital, SGPS, S.A. agreed to sell 75% of Cinclus – Planeamento e Gestão de Projectos, SA for 4.35 million euro and entered into a put option to sell the remaining shareholding after 1 January 2011 for 1.5 million euro (subject to correction depending on the activity of the company). Until that date Sonae Capital SGPS, SA will continue involved in the management of the company and a shareholders agreement will be in place. The initial inflow will be 2.8 million euro and the remaining will be received in two instalments up to October 2009. Taking June 2007 accounts as a reference, this transaction and the corresponding deconsolidation of the company sold, will have an estimated impact in the consolidated results of Sonae,SGPS, SA of 2.5 million euro. This transaction aims to clarify the portfolio of Sonae Capital, SGPS, SA as a result of the on going preparation for its spin-off from Sonae, SGPS, SA;
  • On 8 November 2007, the Board of Directors of Sonae SGPS, SA approved the Sonae Capital's demerger (cisão simples) project. Sonae SGPS, SA will demerge the whole of its shareholding in Sonae Capital, SGPS, SA. The demerger will result in the incorporation of a new holding company, owning 100% of the share capital of Sonae Capital, SGPS, SA. For each Sonae SGPS share 0.125 of a share of this new company will be attributed. Sonae SGPS Extraordinary Shareholders' General Meeting is scheduled for 14 December 2007. The demerger will be formally registered once the project has been approved by the respective Shareholders' General Meeting. Following this approval: (i) the company will issue the prospectus required to list the new company, (ii) the shares will be demerged and their rights will be traded, and finally (iii) the new company shares will be listed on Euronext Lisbon. The Board of Directors of Sonae, SGPS, SA expects to conclude the process by the end of January 2008;

Operational data

As at 30 September 2007, the Retail business had 535 stores, covering thirteen different formats, representing 574 thousand m2 of sales area. Of this area, 77% relates to stores owned by Sonae Distribuição, which represent around 80% of annualised net sales. As at 30 September 2007, the book value of the company's real estate amounted to 1,154 million euro, of which 81% correspond to retail stores and 19% to other real estate assets (central offices, logistics, etc).

In 2007, the Retail business will surpass the initial expectations of organic growth, increasing approximately 12% of its sales area representing approximately 65,000 m2 , of which 25,000 m2 in food retail and 40,000 m2 in non-food retail. In the first nine months of the year, gross investment amounted to 171 million euro, comprising 3 new food stores (9 thousand m2 ) and 57 non-food stores (22 thousand m2 ).

In relation to the acquisition of 99.8648% of the company Carrefour (Portugal) – Sociedade de Exploração de Centros Comerciais, SA, Sonae Distribuição is still waiting for the final approval from the Portuguese Competition Authority, and remains confident that a non-opposition decision will be taken.

Financial data

Consolidated turnover for the first nine months of the year grew by 9% to 2,394 million euro (2,197 million euro), with an underlying like for like growth of 4%. On the third quarter, turnover grew 7% to 899 million euro (837 million euro).

1 The figures included in this section are those from the consolidated financial statements of each of the respective businesses

Consolidated operational cash flow (EBITDA) increased 23% in the first nine months of the year to 195 million euro (158 million euro). Operational cash flow (EBITDA) includes approximately 12 million euro of non-recurrent results relating to the sale of real estate assets in Albufeira and Portimão. Excluding this effect, operational cashflow (EBITDA) would have grown 16% or 25 million euro, to 183 million euro, representing a 0.4 p.p. improvement in the operating margin. Operational cash flow (EBITDA) for the third quarter increased 11% to 81 million euro (73 million euro).

Consolidated net profit for the first nine months of the year was 100 million euro (91 million euro), a 10% increase driven by the good operational performance in the period, notwithstanding the negative impact from financial results. Net financial charges increased by 13 million euro to 26 million euro in the first nine months of the year, mainly due to the higher interest rate in the period and to the acquisition, at the end of 2006, of 100 million own shares at a cost of 205 million euro. Excluding the impact of the acquisition of own shares, net profit would have increased by 17%. Retail quarterly net profit increased 6% to 50 million euro (47 million euro).

As at 30 September 2007, consolidated net debt was 574 million euro, which compares with 377 million euro at the end of the 2006. This increase reflects the financing of the company's aggressive expansion plan.

Operational data

As at 30 September 2007, the Shopping Centres business owned or co-owned 46 shopping centres and 1 retail park, representing 1.8 million m2 of GLA5 , and had 12 centres under development, representing approximately 425 thousand m2 of GLA.

In the third quarter of the year, the portfolio of centres increased through the:

  • Opening of Alexa (Berlin, Germany), a 290 million euro investment developed under a 50/50 partnership with Foncière Euris (GLA5 of 56,200 m2 including 178 stores and 1,600 parking places);
  • Opening of 8ª Avenida (S. João da Madeira, Portugal), a 54 million euro investment (GLA5 of 30,477 m2 , including 130 stores and 1,700 parking places).
  • After the reporting date, in 23 October 2007, opening of El Rosal (Ponferrada, Spain), a 111 million euro investment (GLA5 of 49,500 m2 , including 147 stores) under a 70/30 partnership with Mall Group.

In order to maintain the fast growth of its asset base, Sonae Sierra acquired two plots of land in Romania (Craiova and Ploiesti) and reached an agreement to acquire a plot of land in Brazil (Uberlândia).

Financial data

Net operating margin increased 6.4% in the first nine months of the year to 112 million euro (105 million euro), mainly due to higher operational activity arising from the acquisition of: 2 shopping centres in Portugal (Albufeira and Portimão); Münster Arkaden in Germany; River Plaza in Romania; 73% of Shopping Metrópole, 5% of Shopping Tivoli and 10% of Plaza Sul in Brazil.

Direct net profit grew 18% in the first nine months of the year to 64 million euro (54 million euro), being favourably impacted by the increased level of operational activity propelled by new properties opened and acquisitions made in the period.

Indirect net profit increased by 42% to 142 million euro (100 million euro) reflecting the impact of revaluation gains which resulted from the general yield compression in Europe (particularly in Portugal, Spain and Italy) and in Brazil, the openings of Alexa and 8ª Avenida shopping centres and the acquisitions in the period.

Net profit increased by 33% to 207 million euro in the first nine months (155 million euro).

As at 30 September 2007, the NAV per share of the attributable property portfolio stood at 49.75 euro, a 8.6% increase on the 45.82 euro as at 31 December 2006.

Operational data

During the third quarter of 2007, the Telecommunications business was able to build on the growth platform achieved in the first half of the year and reinforced customer and customer revenue year-on-year growth.

Mobile

Customers increased by 10.8% to 2.76 million at the end of the third quarter (2.49 million), with 159.2 thousand net additions in the first nine months of the year (138.3 thousand). Data revenues represented 17.1% (13.8%) of service revenues in the first nine months of 2007, up 3.3 p.p., as a result of promotional focus on increasing usage of data services and success of wireless broadband solutions.

During the first nine months of the year, mobile customers generated an Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) of 18.3 euro (19.9 euro). This decrease is mostly explained by the impact of lower operator revenues due to the phased reductions in mobile termination rates and, especially, to falling roaming in tariffs.

Fixed

Sonaecom Fixed strengthened its position as a direct access company and substantially enlarged its customer base with the integration of Oni's residential and SOHO customers and Tele2 Portugal.

At the end of the third quarter of 2007, total services reached 798.5 thousand (371.0 thousand), an increase of 115.2% (15% on a "like for like" comparison). Direct

6 Enabler was sold on 30 June 2006 and, in order to allow comparisons between YTD figures, 9M06 have been restated to exclude Enabler's contribution and associated capital gain. All comparisons in this chapter are made on this like for like basis.

access services represented 59.1% (68.4%) of Sonaecom Fixed customer base, or 84.5% excluding recent acquisitions.

SSI

SSI service revenues per employee amounted to 83.8 thousand euro in the first nine months of 2007 (82.5 thousand euro), and equipment sales per employee increased by 5.0% to 1.8 million euro (1.7 million euro).

Financial data

Turnover amounted to 644 million euro in the first nine months of the year (610 million euro), a 5.6% increase notwithstanding the negative impact of lower roaming in tariffs and lower mobile termination rates of 10.8 million euro on Operator Revenues at Optimus. Service revenues increased by 8.4% to 589 million euro (544 million euro). The main contributions to this performance came from: (i) 22.3% higher service revenues at Sonaecom Fixed; (ii) 2.3% increase in Optimus' service revenues, with the growth of customer revenues offsetting the combined negative impact of lower mobile termination rates and roaming in tariffs; (iii) and 10.8% higher service revenues at Software and Systems Information, mainly driven by the good performance of WeDo; (iv) notwithstanding the 9.8% decrease of Público's advertising revenues. The results of Sonaecom Fixed include, since September, 5.0 million euro of revenues generated from the customers acquired from Oni and Tele2 Portugal.

Operational cash flow (EBITDA) totalled 121 million euro in the first nine months of the year (124 million euro), posting a 2.6% decrease and generating an EBITDA margin of 18.7% (20.3%). This performance reflects the negative impact of mobile regulated tariffs and the growth-led investment at Optimus.

Net financial charges increased in the first nine months of the year to 17.6 million euro (12.6 million euro). The higher charges resulted from the accounting effect of writing off 7.2 million euro of outstanding deferred up-front fees related with Optimus' syndicated bank facility which was cancelled and replaced by a new financing facility at Sonaecom SGPS.

Net profit for the first nine months of 2007 decreased to 3.1 million euro (8.3 million euro), reflecting the lower EBITDA and higher net financial charges.

Consolidated gross debt amounted to 327.2 million euro as at 30 September 2007, 136.8 million euro below the 464.0 million euro at the end of 2006. This decrease reflects: (i) the repayment of Optimus' syndicated bank facility of 317 million euro net of up-front fees; (ii) the use of 159 million euro of the new Commercial Paper Program facility; and (iii) an increase of 16.2 million euro related to long term financial leasing contracts in relation to Sonaecom Fixed backbone network.

SONAE CAPITAL

Following the restructuring process, Sonae Capital has focused its portfolio of businesses and its management teams on two main business areas:

  • Sonae Turismo: Resort and Residential Developments (including the Troia and Efanor projects); Real Estate Asset Management; and Touristic Operations (includes Hotel, Fitness and other Businesses);

Financial data

Consolidated turnover decreased 2.8% during the first nine months of the year, to 313 million euro (322 million euro). This figure includes 87.9 million euro from the contribution (up to their disposal) of Plysorol, Safira and Isoroy Casteljaloux turnover. On a like for like basis7 , consolidated turnover grew 16% to 225 million euro. On the first arm of the new Sonae Capital structure – Sonae Turismo – hotel and fitness centre businesses increased their contribution to consolidated turnover by 10.5 million euro following the hotel refurbishment and the value creation proposal fine tuning on the fitness centre business. Still within Sonae Turismo, Praedium also increased its contribution to consolidated turnover by 6.7 million euro. On the other Sonae Capital arm – Spred – Selfrio and Contacto increased their contributions to consolidated turnover by 6.2 and 6.6 million euro, respectively.

Consolidated operational cash flow (EBITDA), more than doubled to 22 million euro on the first nine months 2007 when compared to same period last year (10 million euro). This growth also includes 8.2 million euro contribution from businesses disposed during 2007 (Plysorol, Safira and Isoroy Casteljaloux). On a like for like basis7 , consolidated operational cash-flow (EBITDA) grew more than 50% to 13.8 million euro driven by contribution improvements from the Hotel and Fitness Centre businesses (+5.4 million euro) and Selfrio Group (+1.4 million euro).

7 Excluding the contribution of Plysorol, Safira and Isoroy Casteljaloux, disposed during 2007, and also excluding the contribution of businesses disposed during 2006 (Cuellar, Imoplamac and Bertimóvel).

Investment income totalled 10.9 million euro and related essentially to the gain obtained, 9.8 million euro, on the sale of 7.83% shareholding in ba Vidro and dividends received from the company. In the first nine months of 2006, investment income included 4.6 million euro associated with the sale of ba Vidro shareholding and a 7.8 million euro gain on the sale of Star Viagens to Sonae Distribuição.

Consolidated net profit for the period amounted to 13 million euro (11 million euro), with the increase being explained by improved operating profitability notwithstanding higher financial charges related with higher average leverage.

As at 30 September 2007, consolidated net financial debt, including Sonae SGPS's loans, amounted to 253.9 million euro, at first half 2007 level (258.1 million euro) and comparable with 165.5 million euro in 31 December 2006.

SONAE, SGPS, SA – Stand Alone Activity

During the first quarter of 2007, Sonae, SGPS, SA, sold 40,481,436 Sonaecom, SGPS, SA shares (11.05% of the respective share capital) to a wholly owned company, Sontel, BV, decreasing its direct shareholding to 1.66%.

On 25 April 2007, Sonae, SGPS, SA sold a further 5,000,000 Sonaecom, SGPS, SA shares, decreasing its direct shareholding to 0,006%. At 30 September 2007, Sonae, SGPS, SA owns 50.204% of the share capital of Sonaecom, SGPS, SA, either directly or indirectly.

Consolidated turnover for the first nine months of the year amounted to 3,344 million euro (3,157 million euro), a 6% increase mostly delivered by the Retail business, which increased its contribution by 191 million euro, being approximately 9%, driven by 4% "like for like" growth (reflecting the success of the loyalty programs launched by the company) and by new openings (in the last 12 months, the Retail business opened 84 stores, representing around 35 thousand m2 of sales area). The Shopping Centres business increased its contribution to consolidated turnover by 4%, to 113 million euro (109 million euro), as a result of the growth in the company's portfolio of assets under operation. The Telecommunications business has also achieved a 20 million euro growth in its contribution, up to 644 million euro (624 million euro), notwithstanding the negative impact of lower termination rates and roaming-in tariffs and the fact that Sonaecom's contribution in the first nine months of 2006 was still positively impacted by Enabler's 6 months contribution (as the company was only sold at the end of the first half of 2006). Sonae Capital's contribution decreased slightly to 313 million euro (322 million euro). Consolidated turnover for the third quarter grew 4% to 1,207 million euro (1,158 million euro).

Consolidated operational cash flow (EBITDA) for the first nine months of the year was 508 million euro (416 million euro), generating a consolidated EBITDA margin of 15.2% (13.2%). Retail's contribution grew 39 million euro to 197 million euro (158 million euro), reflecting productivity gains achieved throughout the company and a 12 million euro gain from the sale of Albufeira and Portimão assets during the first half of 2007. The Shopping Centres business grew its contribution to consolidated EBITDA to 169 million euro (125 million euro) through the value created on investment properties, which benefited from the general yield compression in Europe (particularly in Portugal, Spain and Italy) and in Brazil, the openings of Alexa (Berlin, Germany) and 8ª Avenida (S. J. da Madeira, Portugal) and the acquisitions in the period. The Telecommunications business contribution amounted to 128 million euro (132 million euro), a 3% decrease, explained by the negative impact of the regulated tariffs on the mobile business, despite of the strong operational results at the Fixed and S&SI business units. Sonae Capital's contribution increased 11 million euro, up to 21 million euro (10 million euro) mostly due to operational improvements in the Seed and Risk Capital business area.

In the first nine months of the year, net financial expenses totalled 95 million euro (65 million euro). This increase is mostly explained by the higher level of interest expenses resulting from an increase in indexing interest rates and from the higher level of average gross debt in the period.

Investment income totalled 42 million euro in the first nine months of the year (52 million euro) and included gains on the sale of the plywood business (Plysorol) and of the cleaning business (Safira) that were part of Sonae Capital's portfolio, as well as the sale of a small part of the shareholding in Sonaecom and the sale of the remaining shareholding in ba Vidro (7,83%). In the first nine months of 2006, investment income included the gain on the sale of an additional 3.92% shareholding in ba Vidro, a price adjustment on the prior year sale of the Brazilian retail operations and the gain on the sale of Enabler.

Profit for the first nine months of the year increased 17% to 217 million euro (185 million euro), reflecting both operational improvements and the increased value of the Group's portfolio of assets.

Consolidated net investment for the first nine months of the year totalled 473 million euro. The Retail business invested 121 M.€, approximately 26% of total group investment, opening 3 food stores (9 thousand m2 of sales area) and increasing its of non-food stores portfolio by 52 (22 thousand m2 of sales area). The Shopping Centres contribution to consolidated investment amounted to 276 million euro, and reflects: (i) acquisition of Münster Arkaden in Germany, River Plaza in Romania and the shareholding increase in Metrópole, Tivoli and Plaza Sul Shopping Centres in Brazil; (ii) openings of Alexa, in Germany and of 8ª Avenida, in Portugal; and (iii) progress on shopping centres under development. In the first nine months of 2007, the Telecommunications business contributed with 37 million euro to consolidated net investment. This contribution includes the acquisition of Oni's residential and SOHO customers and Tele2 Portugal, partly offset by the sale of 1% PT shareholding in the first quarter 2007. Investment in Sonae Capital amounted to around 73 million euro, most of which was associated with the development of the Tróia project, the opening of fitness centres and refurbishment of hotels, the acquisition of 14% in Cooper Gay, the acquisition of Investalentejo and of an additional stake in Selfrio.

Consolidated net debt as at 30 September 2007 amounted to 2,466 million euro, an increase of 290 million euro and 86 million euro when compared to 30 September 2006 and to the end of first semester 2007, respectively. The Retail business increased its net financial debt by 248 million euro on 30 September 2006 in order to finance its expansion plan. Of the total consolidated net debt as at 30 September 2007, the 747 million euro contribution from the Shopping Centres business is fully and exclusively guaranteed by its own assets. The increase in Sonae Sierra's net financial debt reflects the acquisitions of the year and the financing of projects under development. Sonaecom decreased its net financial debt by 35 million euro to 313 million euro (348 million euro on 30 September 2006) reflecting the free cash flow generated in the period and the movements in gross debt explained above in Sonaecom's chapter. Sonae Capital's net financial debt amounted to 251 million euro (72 million euro on 30 September 2006). The 179 million euro increase is mostly explained by the investment in the Tróia project, in the refurbishment of hotels, and by acquisitions made within the reconfiguration of the company's portfolio. Stand alone net financial debt at the holding company decreased by 313 million euro to 591

8 Includes Non-Current borrowings + Current borrowing - Cash and cash equivalent - Current investments ± Loans from/(to) Sonae SGPS

million euro (904 million euro on 30 September 2006), in line with the objective of reducing net debt at the holding level, set by the Sonae SGPS Board of Directors.

The ratio of consolidated net debt to consolidated EBITDA for the last 12 months was 3.6x, which compares with 3.4x as at 31 December 2006 and 3.3x as at 30 September 2006. The variation is explained by the increase in consolidated net debt described above. Interest cover of the last 12 months reduced to 5.2x, reflecting the higher level of interest expenses resulting from higher index interest rates.

20. DERIVATIVES

Exchange rate derivatives

The Group uses exchange rate derivatives, essentially to hedge future cash flows.

The Group contracted several exchange rate forwards and options in order to manage its exchange rate exposure.

As at 30 September 2007, the fair value of exchange rate derivatives, calculated based on present market value of equivalent financial instruments, is of 154,531 euro (116,043 euro as at 31 December 2006), included in Current liabilities, and of 3,900,890 euro (49,458 euro as at 31 December 2006) in the caption Current investments. The total amount of 3,900,864 euro recorded as assets relates to exchange rate hedging of investment obligations arising from the sale of 50% of Sonae Sierra Brazil to DDR.

Gains in the period arising from changes in the fair value of instruments that do not qualify for hedging accounting treatment, amounting to 3,812,944 euro, were recorded directly in the income statement in the caption Net financial expenses.

Interest rate derivatives

As at 30 September 2007, derivatives used by the Group essentially refer to "swaps" and interest rate options ("cash flow hedges"). These were negotiated to hedge the interest rate risk of loans amounting to 1,097,031,214 euro (315,050,239 euro as at 31 December 2006). The fair value of these derivatives amounts to 6,612,679 euro (3,914,598 euro as at 31 December 2006), and is disclosed as Investments 7,490,456 euro (4,035,714 euro as at 31 December 2006) and as current liabilities 877,777 euro (121,116 euro as at 31 December 2006). As at 30 September 2007, the amount recorded as liabilities of 74.062 euro relates to derivatives negotiated by the Group to reduce the exposure to interest rates changes or in order to optimize the funding cost. These derivatives were not considered hedging instruments as they didn't qualify as such under IAS 39 (as at 31 December 2006 all derivatives were considered hedging instruments).

These interest rate derivatives are valued at fair value, at the balance sheet date, based on valuations performed by the Group using specific software and on external valuations when this software does not deal with specific instruments. The fair value of swaps was calculated, as at the balance sheet date, based on the discounted cash flow of the difference between the fixed interest rate of the fixed leg and the indexed variable interest rate inherent to the variable leg. The calculation of the fair value of options was based on the "Black-Scholes" and similar models.

The hedging principles used by the Group when negotiating these financial derivatives are as follows:

  • Perfect "matching" between cash in-flows and out-flows, i.e., rate setting dates of bank loans coincide with those of the interest rate derivative;
  • Perfect "matching" of indices used: the index of the hedging derivative and that of the related loan are the same;
  • In a scenario of an extreme increase in interest rates, the maximum financing cost is limited.

Counterparts issuing derivative financial instruments are selected based on financial strength and credit risk established by internationally recognised rating agencies. These counterparts are nationally and internationally recognised first class financial institutions.

Interest rate and exchange rate derivatives

As at 30 September 2007 no contracts existed related to interest rate and exchange rate derivatives.

85,910,440 105,487,112

22. SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

In 2007 and in previous years, the Sonae Group granted deferred performance bonuses to its directors and eligible employees. These are either based on shares to be acquired at nil cost, three years after they were attributed to the employee, or based on share options with the exercise price equal to the share price at the grant date, to be exercised three years later. In both cases, the acquisition can be exercised during the period commencing on the third anniversary of the grant date and the end of that year. The company has the choice to settle in cash instead of shares. The option can only be exercised if the employee still works for the Group on the vesting date.

As at 30 September 2007 and 31 December 2006, the market value of total liabilities arising from share-based payments, which have not yet vested, may be summarised as follows:

Year of Vesting Number of Fair value
