5. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS
TERRITORIAL
In Portugal, the gambling activity in land based casinos is developed by five business groups that exploit, under a public concession, the twelve casinos existing in the national territory. In March 2017 the Casino of Ponta Delgada in the Azores started its activity. To this date there's no information available related to game revenues of this casino. The Estoril-Sol Group, through its subsidiaries, operates three of the four biggest casinos in Portugal, accounting for 63% of net income generated by the activity in Portugal.

ONLINE
On the 28th June 2015 the online gambling regulation approved by decree-law 66/2015 entered into force.
The issue of the first license occurred one year later, in May 2016, it was a sports betting license.
The second license issued by the Turismo de Portugal took place in July 2016 and also for sports betting. In July 2016 the first online casino
license (slot machines, roulette and blackjack) was issued. This license was granted to the Estoril-Sol Group on July 25th, 2016, and the Group started operations on the same day. Since then five more licenses have been issued, totaling to this date six online casino licenses allotted. In August 2017 the Estoril-Sol Group obtained a license to operate online sports betting, and immediately started the operation.
As at 30th June 2018, there are seven operators to explore thirteen online game licenses — 11.
During the first semester of 2018, online gambling in Portugal generated gross revenues (amount of bets after deducting the premiums paid) in the overall amount of 70,2 million Euros. The sports betting segment accounts for 54% of the market value and generated gross revenues of 37,9 million Euros. Casino Games, including slot machines, roulette and blackjack, represent 37% of the market and generated gross revenues of 25,7 million Euros. Poker generated revenues of 6,6 million Euros corresponding to 9% of all online bets — 12.

CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS
During the first semester of 2018, the Group recorded combined gross game revenues, territorial and online, of 108,4 million Euros, with an overall growth of 7,7%. Net from gaming taxes, the Group's total game revenues amounted to 52,2 million Euros, an increase of 4,8% over the 49,8 million Euros achieved in the first semester of the previous year.
The other operating revenues of Estoril-Sol, restaurant and entertainment, increased by 3,3% to 4,5 million Euros. The Group's 6,9% increase in operating costs reflects the Group's investment in streamlining and increasing the entertainment, leisure and restaurant offer in the casinos, but mainly reflects the strong investment in marketing and advertising carried out by the Group in the first semester of 2018 related with the online casino operation.
This strong commitment and investment during the first quarter of 2018, in line with the investment policy also adopted during the last year, proved to be essential to obtain the good results of this new operation, the online casino.

|6. RELEVANT FACTS
During the first quarter of 2013, after a unanimous vote taken at the headquarters of the Portuguese Association of Casinos as well as within the Board of Estoril-Sol, the operating companies from the Group Estoril-Sol, have filed lawsuits against the State in which they seek to be restored the financial balance of Gaming Concessions.
Such a claim is founded, among other reasons, because the State, through its actions and omissions has given rise to changes in circumstances that were the basis for the negotiation of the gaming concessions.
Of them highlights the fact that it was assumed for tax basis a continuing and significant increase of gaming revenue throughout the concession period.
Despite not having checked this proposition due to the economic climate and as a result of the State attitude in relation to online gambling and illegal gambling, among others, it continued to require them to pay very high taxes, calculated on revenue that the Concessionaires did not obtain.
Thus, remained no alternative to the Concessionaires that was not to challenge with the competent Administrative and Fiscal Courts the settlements of tax to which they were presented, and for that purpose submit the necessary judicial guarantees.
However by the time of approval of this report, and despite the fact that all tax settlements were contested by the Group, all taxes are without exception, or paid or its payment was legally postponed under Decree-Law 1/2015, and for this reason the Group Estoril-Sol does not have any overdue debt related with game taxes (notes 15 and 16 to the consolidated accounts).
|7. SUBSEQUENT FACTS
Between the 30th of June 2018 and the date of this report, no relevant facts occurred that could materially affect the financial position and the future results of Estoril-Sol, S.G.P.S.,S.A. and the other Companies of the Group.

1. INTRODUCTION
The Estoril-Sol Group, through its subsidiary and associated companies (Note 4), conducts business in gaming, the restaurant sector, entertainment and also real estate.
Estoril-Sol, S.G.P.S, S.A. is the Holding Company of the Estoril-Sol Group ("Group") and the shares representing its share capital are admitted for trading on a regulated market - the Euronext – as such, on 1 January 2005 it was obliged to prepare Consolidated Accounts pursuant to article 3 of Regulation (EC) no. 1606/2002, of the European Parliament and of the Council, of 19 July, following the Portuguese government's publication of Decree Law no. 35/2005, article 11.
2. MAIN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
2.1. Bases of presentation
The attached financial statements were prepared on the assumption of the continuity of operations, based on the books and accounting records of the companies included in the consolidation (Note 4), adjusted to comply with the provisions of the IAS 34 as adopted in the European Union and should be read together with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31st December 2017.
The interim financial information now disclose was not subjected to an external audit or limited review.
3. JUDGMENTS OF VALUE, CRITICAL ASSUMPTIONS AND MAIN SOURCES OF UNCERTAINTY ASSOCIATED TO ESTIMATES
During the period ended on 30th June 2018, there were no changes in accounting policies in relation to those used in the preparation and presentation of the financial statements of the year ended on 31st December 2017, nor were any material errors recognised relating to previous periods, with the exception of the following:
IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments
In the context of the implementation of IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments by the Group, which replaced IAS 39, the impacts of adopting this standard were evaluated as of January 1, 2018, with effects reported as following:
Classification and measurement
All financial assets and liabilities will continue to be measured on the same basis as currently under IAS 39. In this way, the accounts receivable and payable from and to third parties and the financing/bank loans obtained will continue to be subsequently measured at amortized cost in scope of IFRS 9.
Impairment
Financial assets measured at amortized cost will be subject to impairment under IFRS 9.
With regard to other accounts receivable, the Board of Directors considers that these have a lowcredit risk considering the credit risk profile of those entities.
The application of the expected credit loss model did not have a significant impact on the amounts of impairment losses recognized in the Group's consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 15 – Revenues from contracts with costumers
The Group recognizes revenues from different businesses.
The Board of Directors made the following preliminary assessments:
Provision of services associated with the operation of casino gambling: With regard to services associated with the operation of casino gambling, the Group understands that the obligation to perform the service delivery, according to its nature, occurs at the moment in which the respective service is provided. It is expected that the timing of recognition of the single performance obligation of each of those services occurs at a specific point in time, also consistent with current practice, when control of the services provided is transferred to the customer.
Sales associated with the operation of casino games (namely entertainment and catering): As regards sales associated with the operation of casino games, in particular catering, the Group envisages that the performance obligation is fulfilled at the time when it transfers control of the goods at the time of delivery, and there are no other significant performance obligations to be fulfilled from that moment on. In this way, it is expected that the recognition of the respective revenue will occur at a moment in time, after the delivery of the services, similar to what the Group currently performs under IAS 18.
The Board of Directors believes that the application of IFRS 15 has no significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial position or consolidated financial performance.

| June 2018 | June 2017 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nature of the financing | Nominal Value | Balance sheet value | Nominal Value | Valor em Balanço |
| Current financing: | ||||
| Commercial paper | - | - | 2 500 000 | 2 645 332 |

The average interest rates for financing, borne by the Group, including commissions and other charges, come within an interval of between 2% and 4,1%.
Some of the financing operations, mainly bank loans, include commitments to maintain certain financial ratios based on contractually negotiated limits (financial covenants).
These ratios are:
- Net Debt/EBITDA;
- Financial autonomy.
On the 30th June 2018 and 31st December 2017, these ratios were according the contractually negotiated limits.
Depending on the operating funds that are freed up, we feel the financial risk to which the associated undertakings are exposed is minimal, and the same understanding has prevailed in the examination carried out by financial institutions, as shown by the fact that assets guarantees are dispensed with for operations under contract.
The amount included in the column "Nominal value" corresponds to the contracted value that is still owing. The column "Balance sheet value" is added to the nominal value of financial charges already incurred but still not due, less interest and or commissions paid in advance.

16. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND ASSETS, GUARANTEES AND COMMITMENTS
Contingent liabilities
In the normal course of its business, the Group is involved in several legal proceedings. In result of their nature and provisions and according to the opinion of legal advisors, the expectation is that, from the respective outcome, there will be no material effects that are not yet recognized in the financial statements as of June 30th, 2018 and December 31st, 2017. The most relevant processes are as follows:
The main situations are the following:
- Differences in understanding between the Group and the Tax Authorities over Corporation Tax (IRC), relating to the years 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010, with regard to the taxation of undocumented expenses incurred in the course of the gaming activity of subsidiaries that form part of the Group and which operate games of fortune as their main activity. During the year 2013 occurred the 1st instance verdict contrary to the allegations and convictions of the Group relating to the process for the years 2007 to 2009. It is the Company's belief, grounded in favourable opinions from legal advisers, that a final decision should be favourable, which is why the Group appealed to higher courts. On the date of these financial statements there are also previous legal decisions that are in the Group's favour, as well as judicial jurisprudence which is favourable to the Group on this matter. Even so, on this date the Group has bank guarantees provided in favour of the Finance Office of Cascais amounting to 7.197.635 Euros.
- The Group carried out a collective dismissal in 2010 and 2013 in the Casinos of Lisbon, Estoril and Póvoa de Varzim in the terms established in the Law, which included 133 employees. Some of these employees brought up an action to the Court for annulment of the dismissal and reinstatement within the Group. The Group and the legal counsel responsible for the proceeding consider that there is a high probability to obtain a favourable outcome and, in result, the provision recorded corresponds only to the legal obligations the Group would have incurred with be paid ex-employees as compensation. The total amount claimed by these former employees amounts to approximately 3,492,000 Euros and at 30th June 2018 and 31st December 2017 the Group's financial statements present provisions to cover only the minimum required by law, in the amounts of, approximately 1,125,000 Euros and 1,817,000 Euros, respectively.
- In 2011 Gastronomic Evolution Gestão de Restaurantes, Lda., a former concessionaire of three restaurants in Casino de Lisboa, filed a lawsuit against the Group requiring
compensation for loss of customers in relation to expectations that would have been previously generated. The total amount claimed amounts to 906,630 Euros, which is provisioned in the financial statements as of June 31st, 2018 and December 31st, 2017
- On 30th June 2018 and 31st December 2017, the Group has been involved in various cases associated with interdicted players, alleging that the concessionaires have not complied with the prohibition order, at the entrance of the various Casinos operated, to which the same customers were subject, demanding a claim for compensation for the alleged non-compliance. The total amount claimed for the main proceedings of this nature at 31 March 2018 amounts to approximately 186,000 Euros. The Board of Directors, based on the opinion of its legal advisors and in view of the historic resolution of such cases, recognized in the financial statements as of June 30th and December 31st, 2018 and 2017, liabilities estimated at 147,000 Euros and 493,000 Euros, respectively.
- In January 2009, a machine from Casino de Lisboa announced a fake Jackpot on a gaming machine of 4,232,774 Euros, and the customer involved, despite being informed about the machine error, filed a lawsuit against the Group to demand amount. The Board of Directors, supported by its legal advisors and the expert evidence prepared by the suppliers of those machines and by the Gaming Regulation and Inspection Service, where it is concluded that there has been a malfunction of the computer system which presented the prize, considers it is probable to obtain a favourable outcome for the Group, for which a provision of approximately 200,000 Euros was recorded.
Contingent Assets
In January 2013, the Group, together with other gambling concessionaires with gambling in Portugal, filed a lawsuit against the Portuguese State in order to restore the economic and financial rebalancing of the concession. This process includes the challenges of monthly special income taxes and the annual liquidations of 2012 to 2013, and the liquidations of the annual counterparts from 2014 to 2016, all settled in accordance with Decree-Law - nº 275/2001, so that, in the opinion of the legal and tax advisors of the Group, in the case of favourable decision on the referred objections, the liquidations will be refunded plus interest. In September 2016, the Administrative and Fiscal Court of Sintra ruled in favour of the Group on the unlawfulness of the clearance of the income tax payment of October 2013 on automatic machines and charged the Group with its share of responsibility for the value of court expenses, which for the actions involved in this proceeding were estimated as of approximately, 2,501,000 Euros. The Board of Directors, supported by the opinion of its legal and tax advisors, recognized the corresponding liability, considering the complaint presented on the amount of these court expenses, in the amount of 1,250,000 Euros.
