To the Shareholders

Pursuant to the legal requirements, the Board of Directors of Altri, S.G.P.S., S.A. ('Altri') hereby presents its Directors' Report for the first semester of 2015.

INTRODUCTION

Altri was incorporated as of March 2005, as a result of Cofina's demerger. Altri is a reference European producer of bleached eucalyptus pulp and is a listed company included in NYSE Euronext Lisbon, integrating the PSI 20 (Portuguese Stock Index), the benchmark stock market index. In addition to pulp production, the company is also present in electric energy from forest renewable sources, namely industrial cogeneration, black liquor and biomass. The forestry strategy is based on full use of all the components provided by the forest: pulp, black liquor and forest wastes.

Over the past years, Altri invested in Portugal about 510 million Euro, mainly on Celbi and Celtejo unities. Currently, Altri owns three pulp mills in Portugal with a total capacity of 990 thousand tons/year of bleached eucalyptus pulp in 2014. During the first half of 2015 was completed a set of small investments aimed at increasing the production capacity of Celbi and Caima.Thus, Caima, at the end of the project of conversion to pulp specialties sector, will produce around 105,000 tons/year. On the other hand, Celbi will hold an installed capacity exceeding 700,000 tons/year of bleached pulp type BEKP.

Currently, Altri manages over 84 thousand hectares of forest in Portugal. The company obtained certification from the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®)1 and Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC two of the most worldwide acknowledged certification entities.

Altri's industrial strategy implementation is based on integrated forest management in Portugal. This model is based on forest optimization, ensuring a full recovery of all its components. Thus, the eucalyptus is processed in Altri mills, producing pulp and power (cogeneration). The bark, the branches and forest waste are used to produce electric energy from biomass.

Until June 2008, Altri had another industrial activity through the F. Ramada, which was devoted to retail steel and development of industrial solutions for storage systems. In June 2008 took place the split of the F. Ramada. The strategic rationale of this operation lies in focusing exclusively Altri on their core business, forest management and production of pulp.

Since the beginning of its activity Altri carried out various acquisitions (Celtejo in 2005 and in 2006 Celbi) that allowed Altri to reinforce its position in its operating markets and by the development of a set of expansion activity projects.

For a better valuation of forest resources, Altri acquired in 2005, 50% of EDP Produção - Bioeléctrica, S.A., for, in partnership with EDP, producing electricity from forest biomass. This company is leader in its market segment with a share licenses to the production of electricity by forest biomass of 50%.

The total revenue of the first semester of 2015 amounted to 312.8 million Euro, an increase of 18.6% compared to the same period of 2014.

The total net investment (CAPEX) made in the first semester of 2015 by the industrial units of the Group, amounted to 27.6 million Euros. Taking into account that the projects of reinforcement of operational efficiency (Celbi) and conversion to specialty pulp (Caima) were concluded during the first semester, the expected intensity of the investment for the second semester is necessarily, significantly lower.

Altri's nominal remunerated debt net of cash and cash equivalents and investments available for sale on June 30, 2015 amounted to 491.3 million Euro, which represents a decrease of 13.2 million Euro comparing to the net debt of 504.4 million Euro recorded in the end of March 2015, and a decrease of 23.4 million Euro compared to 31 December 2014.

OUTLOOK

The second half of the year shall be characterized by a reinforcement of the productive capacity of the industrial units of Altri, namely Celbi and Caima, which learning curves should be completed during the fourth quarter. Thus, it should be possible to reach a production level of about 1 million tons of eucalyptus pulp during 2015. In addition, the company will continue to implement a number of projects to reinforce operating efficiency.

In financial terms, the company will continue to focus its strategy on debt reduction by generating cash. Given the fact that the investments made in the industrial units Celbi and Caima were incurred during the first half of the year, it is expected that the investment will be substantially reduced during the second half of 2015, which may a positive effect on cash flow generation.

Considering that the majority of the company's revenues are dominated in US dollars, a weaker Euro related to USD has a substantive impact on the results of Altri.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

According to legal provisions, the Company is not required to provide information relating to corporate governance, since it is compulsory only in conjunction with the annual Directors' report. The detailed annual corporate governance report is part of the Annual Report and Accounts of 2014 and is available on the website (www.altri.pt).

Since then, the functions of this nonexecutive director are assured by the other members of the Board of Directors.

On June 25, 2015, the group announced to the market the change to its executive management model in order to adapt to the continuing challenges of the market, according to the management philosophy that the company was already following. Thus, Altri's chairman, Paulo Fernandes, assumes functions of Co-CEO and the Vice-president, João Borges de Oliveira, also assume the function of Co-CEO.

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 Lisbon Euronext Stock Exchange. Its main activity is the management of investments.

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 paper pulp of eucalyptus through three production units (Celbi in Figueira da Foz, Caima in Constância do Ribatejo and Celtejo in Vila Velha de Ródão).

Due to this reality of Altri Group, the Board of Directors believe that there is only one business segment (production and commercialization of bleached paper pulp from eucalyptus) and the management 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 ACCOUTING POLICIES AND BASIS FOR PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements as of 30 June 2015 were prepared using accounting policies consistent with the International Financial Reporting Standards and in accordance with the International Accounting Standard and 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 2014.

On 16 April 2008, the Board of Directors of Altri, S.G.P.S., S.A. approved a simple demerger project of this company which implied the split of Altri's two business units that operates in the pulp and paper sector and in the steel and storage systems sector. This reorganization aimed a bigger focus and transparency on ALTRI's business, and giving each of the areas an opportunity to be better seen and better evaluated by the market, and allowed Altri Group to focus its activity on its core business, production and commercialization of bleached paper pulp form eucalyptus. Therefore, the Board of Directors believes that there is only one business segment and the management information is reported and analyzed on this basis.
