During the first quarter of the year, the average market price of pulp (BHKP) recorded by PIX was 767 USD/tad, being the price recorded, at the end of March 2021, of 865 USD/tad.

In operational terms, Altri Group's industrial units, produced, during the first quarter, 280.4 thousand tons of pulp (-0.7% comparatively to the same period of 2020). On the other hand, pulp sales reached 304.6 thousand tons, which corresponds to a 6.1% increase over the first quarter of 2020 and a 12.3% increase over the fourth quarter of 2020.

During the quarter under analysis, Altri Group exported 262.7 thousand tons of pulp, which corresponds to 86% of its pulp total sales. In monetary terms, quarterly exports amounted to 119.2 million Euro.

In the quarter under analysis, EBITDA of the pulp production units amounted to 32.7 million Euro, which corresponds to an increase of 29% comparatively to the EBITDA recorded in the same period of the previous year.

Key indicators: Energy Segment

Altri Group, through its subsidiary Greenvolt, operates five energy power plants through forest biomass with approximately 97 MW of installed capacity, hence allowing it to consolidate its integration strategy between the forestry sector producing biomass and the production of energy from this renewable resource.

On March 18, 2021, the market was informed about the election of João Manso Neto as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Greenvolt and the intention to study the possibility to perform an operation that, subject to market conditions and under the usual terms in similar situations, may culminate in the admission to trading of all the shares representing Greenvolt in the regulated market Euronext Lisbon.

EBITDA thousand € 6,766 7,787 -13.1% 8,672 -22.0%

Total revenues associated with the units of energy production through forest biomass, developed through the subsidiary Greenvolt amounted to, in the first quarter of 2021, 21.1 million Euro, which corresponds to a decrease of 2.8% compared to the first quarter of 2020.

EBITDA, in the first quarter of 2021, reached 6.8 million Euro, which corresponds to a 13.1% decrease over the same period of the previous year.

It should be noted that, during the period under analysis, there was a maintenance stoppage in the both industrial units at Constância and Figueira da Foz, which impacted the injected power and the level of costs.

Greenvolt has an ambitious project of national and international growth, intending to consolidate its leadership position in the national market and enhance as a reference player within the renewable energy in the international market, not only through forest biomass, but also through innovative models of solar and wind energy.

Under this goal, on 3 May, Greenvolt entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the Company incorporated under Polish law V-Ridium Europe, where the parties foresee that V-Ridium Europe will conduct in Greenvolt, in the context of a potential IPO, and on further terms yet to be defined, an increase in Greenvolt's share capital, which may take place as new entries in kind, for a subscription price corresponding to the maximum price interval to be established within the scope of Greenvolt's IPO, based on an assessment of V-Ridium corresponding to 56 million Euro ("Subscription"), and to this amount may be added the amount of 14 million Euro, subject to certain conditions to be agreed between the parties, namely the fulfilment of the Business Plan.

V-Ridium is a company incorporated under Polish law, which operates in the renewable energy sector, being a reference player in this sector and having a pipeline of wind and solar projects, mainly in Poland and Greece, with about 2,800 MW, of which more than 1,500 MW are in advanced stages of development.

5. SUSTAINABILITY

Altri has defined four strategic development vectors that focus its activity and its future investments:

  • Develop and Enhance the Forest
  • Focus on Operational Excellence and Technological Innovation
  • To Value the People
  • Affirming Sustainability as a Competitiveness Factor

Based on this strategy, the main sustainability objectives for the Group were identified, in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as well as with the expectations of our stakeholders. These have been identified based on the results of an auscultation carried out at the end of 2020, culminating in the development of the Altri Group's "2030 Commitment".

6. PULP MARKET

According to data from the Pulp and Paper Products Council (PPPC), World Chemical Market Pulp Global 100 Report, February 2020, the cumulative total demand for the first two months of 2021 of hardwood pulp decreased 2.5% compared to the same period of 2020. The inventory days on hand at hardwood pulp producers were 35 days at the end of February 2021, which corresponds to a decrease of 8 days compared to the level of inventories that occurred a year ago.

In terms of sales price, the benchmark is registering a significant recovery, being, at the date of this press release, at 1,023 USD/tad. However, the announced market price is 1,090 USD/tad, a value that is a record in terms of prices of sales of hardwood pulp.

7. ALTRI – Business Profile

Altri is a reference in European eucalyptus pulp producers. In addition to pulp production, the Group is also present in the renewable power production business from forest base sources, namely industrial cogeneration through black liquor and biomass. The forestry strategy is based on the full use of all the components provided by the forest: pulp, black liquor and forest wastes.

Currently, Altri manages around 86.3 thousand hectares of forest in Portugal, entirely certified by the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) 3 and by Programme for the Endorsement of Forest CertificationTM (PEFCTM), two of the most acknowledged certification entities worldwide.

Currently, Altri has three pulp mills in Portugal, with an installed capacity that, in 2020, reached more than 1.1 million tonnes/year of eucalyptus pulp.

Altri's current organic structure can be represented as follows:

Financial information 1Q21

8. FUTURE PERSPECTIVES

The current context, although still characterised by a pandemic scenario, is globally optimistic in the medium term, which has resulted in an increase in demand and, consequently, an increase in prices.

Altri Group will continue to develop a set of projects that seek to continuously improve, essentially based on the digital field, which aim to reinforce the efficiency of its production units.

In the Energy Segment, Altri Group, through its subsidiary Greenvolt, will carry on its ambitious project of national and international growth. Greenvolt intends to consolidate its leadership position in the national market and enhance as a reference player within the renewable energy in the international market, not only through forest biomass – a segment which will continue to be the company's core business, with undoubted skills –, but also through innovative models of solar and wind energy.

In terms of stoppages for maintenance during 2021, the schedule is as follows:

  • Celbi: October 2021
  • Caima: September 2021
  • Celtejo: No stoppage scheduled

1. INTRODUCTORY NOTE

Altri, SGPS, S.A. ('Altri' or 'the Company') is a public company incorporated on 1 March 2005, whose head office is located at Rua Manuel Pinto de Azevedo, 818, in Oporto, and its main activity involves managing shareholdings, while its shares are listed at Euronext Lisbon.

Altri is dedicated to managing shareholdings primarily in the industrial sector, as the parent company of the group of companies shown under Note 4 and referred to as the Altri Group. There is no other company above it that includes these consolidated financial statements. The Altri Group's current activities focus on producing bleached eucalyptus pulp at three production plants and on generating electricity via waste consumption and forest biomass.

Faced with this reality in the Altri Group, its Board of Directors considers there are two business segments, namely, production and commercialization of bleached eucalyptus pulp and electricity generation via waste consumption and forest biomass, being management information also prepared and examined on that basis (Note 15).

The Altri Group's condensed consolidated financial statements are shown in Euros, in amounts rounded off to the nearest Euro. This is the currency used by the Group in its transactions and, as such, is deemed to be the functional currency.

2. MAIN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

DO CONSELHO DE ADMINISTRAÇÃO

The condensed consolidated financial statements, for the period ended on 31 March 2021, were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting and include the condensed consolidated statement of financial position, the condensed consolidated income statement, the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows, as well as, the selected explanatory notes. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information required to be published on the annual financial statements, and should, therefore, be read together with the consolidated financial statements of the Altri Group for the financial year ended 31 December 2020.

The accounting policies adopted for preparation of the attached condensed consolidated financial statements were consistently applied during the periods being compared.

The Board of Directors assessed the capacity of the Company, its subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates to operate on a going concern basis, based on the entire relevant information, facts and circumstances, of financial, commercial or other nature, including events subsequent to the condensed consolidated financial statements' reference date, as available regarding the future. As a result of the assessment conducted, the Board of Directors concluded that it has adequate resources to keep up its operations, which it does not intend to cease in the short term. Therefore, it was considered appropriate to use the going concern basis in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The attached condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared based on the accounting books and records of the company, its subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, adjusted in the consolidation process, in the assumption of going concern basis. When preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Group used historical cost as its basis, modified, where applicable, via fair value measurement of i) biological assets measured at fair value, and ii) certain financial instruments, which are recorded at their fair value.

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates, assumptions and critical judgements in the process of determining accounting policies to be adopted by the Group, with significant impact on the book value of assets and liabilities, as well as on income and expenses for the period. Although these estimates are based on the best experience of the Board of Directors and on its best expectations regarding current and future events and actions, current and future results may differ from these estimates. Areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas with significant assumptions and estimates are disclosed in Note 2.4 of the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the financial year ended 31 December 2020.

DO CONSELHO DE ADMINISTRAÇÃO 3. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND COMPARABILITY OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DO CONSELHO DE ADMINISTRAÇÃO 7. CURRENT AND DEFERRED TAXES

According to current legislation, tax returns are subject to review and correction by the tax authorities during a period of four years (five years for Social Security), except when there have been tax losses, tax benefits granted, or when inspections, complaints or challenges are in progress, in which cases, depending on the circumstances, the deadlines are extended or suspended. Therefore, the Group's tax returns since 2017 may still be subject to review.

The Board of Directors of Altri believes that any potential corrections resulting from reviews/inspections of these tax returns by the tax authorities will not have a significant effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements as of 31 March 2021.

DO CONSELHO DE ADMINISTRAÇÃO 15. INFORMATION BY SEGMENTS

The Altri Group shows the following reportable segments:

i) Pulp

Comprising essentially the three pulp mills in Portugal: Celulose Beira Industrial (Celbi), S.A., in Figueira da Foz; Celtejo – Empresa de Celulose do Tejo, S.A., in Vila Velha de Ródão; and Caima – Indústria de Celulose, S.A., located in Constância, and the forestry activity; and

ii) Energy

Consisting of GreenVolt – Energias Renováveis, S.A. and its subsidiaries, comprising five power plants generating energy from forest biomass, for sale to the public grid.

The Group identified these two reportable segments, considering that these are Group facilities that carry on business where revenues and expenses can be separately identified and relative to which separate financial information is produced. The identification of the reportable segments made by the Group is consistent with the way the Board of Directors conducts and controls them, and on which it makes decisions.

The contribution of the business segments to the consolidated income statement for the three months period ended 31 March 2021 is as follows:

16. RELATED PARTIES

Altri Group subsidiary companies have relationships with each other that qualify as transactions with related parties, which were carried out at market prices.

During the three months periods ended 31 March 2021 and 2020, there were no transactions with the Board of Directors, nor were they granted loans.

As at 31 March 2021 and 2020, balances and transactions with related entities during the three months periods ended on those dates can be summarised as follows:
