Financial Information – 3rd Quarter of 2011 (Unaudited)

Operational activity

During the first nine months of 2011, total revenues excluding financial income, reached 370 million euro, representing a decrease of 1% compared with the same period of the previous year.

The three Altri industrial units, Celbi, Caima and Celtejo, produced and sold 624.6 and 607.2 thousand tons of pulp, respectively.

Operational costs (excluding amortizations) reached 278.4 million euro, rising 13% compared with the same period of 2010.

Cost increases result from the rising wood cost, mainly from the wood imports. It is expected that these costs will slightly decrease during the rest of the year.

Financial Information – 3Q 2011

3Q11 Main indicators

During the 3rd quarter of 2011, total revenues reached 118.8 million euro, representing a decrease of 5% compared with the 2 nd quarter of 2011. During this period, Altri produced 216.4 thousand tons of pulp (219.1 thousand tons on the 2nd quarter of 2011) and sold 206.7 thousand tons (201.9 thousand tons in the 2nd quarter of 2011). During the 3rd quarter, the selling price of the pulp (PIX) dropped 3.8% in Europe, while in Asia and spot markets there have been stronger drops.

Net revenues of electric power, liquor and bark amounted, during the 3 rd quarter of 2011, to 6.4 million euro. In the previous quarter it amounted to 9.1 million euro. This decrease was related with the strong increase of the electricity price in the 3rd quarter.

Operating costs drop by 4% in the quarter

Operational costs (excluding amortizations) reached 90.7 million euro, decreasing approximately 4% compared with the 2 nd quarter of 2011. This reduction was driven primarily by a decrease of 8% in cost of sales relating mostly to the cost of wood.

2011 Quarterly analysis of "Cost of Sales" (thousand euro)

The line "Staff costs" include about 1.3 million euro related to reorganization costs. Not considering these costs, the evolution of this line would be only 1.2% when compared with the same period of the last year.

Pulp market

The 3 rd quarter of 2011 was marked by a sharp decrease in the demand for pulp followed by a drop on the sales price, when compared with the previous quarters. The price in Europe of eucalyptus pulp (BEKP) began the quarter at 850 USD / ton and ended at about 750 USD / ton.

During the 1st quarter of 2011, the global demand increased 10% compared with the same period of the previous year. On the 2nd and 3rd quarters, global demand increased about 5%. Nevertheless, the demand on Western Europe in the 3rd quarter of 2011 was strongly affected by macroeconomic instability driven by the sovereign debt crisis in the region, having fallen 10% during this period (year on year).

The average market price of BEKP during the first nine months of 2011 was 848 USD / ton, which resulted in 604 € / ton.

1. INTRODUCTORY NOTE

Altri, SGPS, S.A. ("Altri" or "Company") was incorporated as of 1 March 2005, has its head-office located at Rua General Norton de Matos, 68, r/c – Porto, Portugal and its shares are listed in the NYSE Euronext Lisbon Stock Exchange. Its main activity is the management of investments.

Altri was incorporated as a result of the reorganization process of Cofina, SGPS, S.A. occurred in 2005, through the spin-off of the investment previously held by this group in Celulose do Caima, SGPS, S.A. (representing 97.23% of this company's share capital), under a simple demerger operation predicted in item 1.a), article 118 of the Commercial Companies Code ("Código das Sociedades Comerciais").

Altri is the parent company of a group of companies listed in Note 4 known as Altri Group. The current activity of Altri Group focuses on the production of bleached eucalyptus paper pulp through three production mills (Celbi in Figueira da Foz, Caima in Constância do Ribatejo and Celtejo in Vila Velha de Ródão).

Due to this new reality of Altri Group, the Board of Directors believes that there is only one business segment (production and commercialization of bleached eucalyptus paper pulp) and management's information is also analyzed on this basis, for which the segmental information mentioned in Note 16 is limited by this.

The consolidated financial statements of Altri Group are presented in Euro rounded off to the unit, which is the currency used by the Group in its operations and considered as the functional currency.

2. MAIN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS FOR PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements as of 30 September 2011 were prepared using accounting policies consistent with the International Financial Reporting Standards and in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting and includes the statement of financial position, the statement of profit and loss, the statement of 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 used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of Altri are consistent with those used in the year ended 31 December 2010, being the accounting policies relating to joint ventures, and relating to investment property, as follows:

(i) Joint ventures

Investments in joint ventures (Altri has joint control of a company when it has shared participation in the financial and operating decisions of that company - usually investments representing 50% of the company's share capital) are recorded under the equity method.

Under the equity method, financial investments in joint ventures are initially recorded at acquisition cost, which is increased or decreased by the amount corresponding to the proportion of the equity of these companies, reported at the date of acquisition or at the first application of the equity method. Investments are then adjusted annually, recording as profits or losses the amount corresponding to the net profits of the jointly controlled companies. Dividends from these companies are recorded as a reduction of investment value, and the proportional changes in equity is recorded as a variation of the equity of the Group.

Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's share in the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the joint venture acquired is recognized as goodwill, which is included in the caption "Investments in associated companies and joint ventures". If that difference is negative it is recorded as a gain in the caption "Gains and losses in associated companies and joint ventures" after reassessment of the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired.

An evaluation of investments held in joint ventures is performed whenever there are signs of impairment in those investments. Impairment losses are recorded in the statement of profit and loss for the period. When those losses recorded in previous periods vanish, they are reversed in the statement of profit and losses of the period.

Unrealized gains arising from transactions with joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the group's interest in the joint venture share capital against the investment held. Unrealized losses are eliminated but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment of the asset transferred.

(Translation of notes originally issued in Portuguese – Note 21)

(Amounts expressed in Euro)

(ii) Investment property

Investment property represents Altri's property which is not related to the activity of the Group, not intended for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes, or for sale in the ordinary course of business.

Investment property is initially measured at cost (which includes transaction costs) and, subsequently, maintained at acquisition or production cost, deducted from any accumulated impairment losses.

3. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND CORRECTION OF MISTAKES

During the period there were no changes in accounting policies and were identified no material mistakes related to previous years.

Additionally, considering the specific nature of each item, some reclassifications and redenomination were made at the consolidated statement of financial position as of 31 December 2010, which, although not distorting in a material way such consolidated financial statements, contribute to a better understanding of them, as follows:

  • (i) The caption "Investments in associated companies" was renamed to "Investments in associated companies and joint ventures";
  • (ii) The caption "Consolidation differences" was renamed to "Goodwill";
  • (iii) Other reclassifications:

This reorganization aimed a bigger focus and transparency on ALTRI's business, and giving each of the areas an opportunity to be more visible and better evaluated by the market and allows Altri Group to focus its activity on its core business: production and trade of bleached eucalyptus paper pulp.
