1. INTRODUCTORY NOTE

F. Ramada Investimentos, SGPS, S.A. ("F. Ramada" or "Company") is a Company incorporated in 1 June 2008, with its head-office located at Rua do General Norton de Matos, 68, r/c - Porto, Portugal and its shares listed in the Euronext Lisbon. Its main activity is the management of investments.

F. Ramada was created as a result of the reorganization process of Altri, SGPS, S.A. through the demerger of the business areas of steel and storage systems, namely the participation held in F. Ramada – Aços e Indústrias, S.A., which represented the voting rights of the mentioned company. The restructuring involved a simple demerger operation, as predicted in item 1.a), article 118, of the Portuguese Companies Act ("Código das Sociedades Comerciais").

Following this process, the assets corresponding to the shareholdings of the business units of steel and storage systems, including all the resources (such as human resources, assets and liabilities) related to that business unit were transferred from Altri, SGPS, S.A. to F. Ramada.

Currently, F. Ramada is the parent company of a group of companies listed in Note 4 (designated as F. Ramada Group), and through this financial holdings structure, focuses its operations in (i) steel trade, (ii) storage systems sales, sector in which the Group already presents a significant international presence, and (iii) real estate.

As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Group developed its activity in Portugal, France, United Kingdom, Belgium and Spain.

The consolidated financial statements of F. Ramada Group are presented in Euro (rounded to units), which is the currency used by the Group in its operations and, therefore, is considered to be its functional currency. The operations of the foreign companies whose functional currency is different from Euro are included in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the policy set out in Note 2.

2. MAIN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements as of 31 March 2016 were prepared in accordance with the accounting policies defined by the International Financial Reporting Standards and in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, and include the statement of financial position, the income statement, the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows, as well as selected notes to the financial statements.

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of F. Ramada are consistent with the accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements presented for the year ended as of 31 December 2015.

All the above companies were included in the consolidated financial statements of F. Ramada Group in accordance with the full consolidation method.

4.2 Investment in associates and joint venture

As of March 31, 2016, the caption "Investments in associates and joint ventures" includes, essentially, the shares of Base Holding SGPS, S.A. owned by F. Ramada Investimentos, SGPS, S.A.. This entity has its head office in Oporto and heads a group of companies which operate in the healthcare sector, namely, complementary means of diagnosis and treatment.

The use of the equity method in the year ended as March 31, 2016 was made based on preliminary and not audited consolidated financial statements of the above companies. The effect on the net profit of the year was recorded on the caption "Share of results of associates and joint ventures" by the amount of 495,000 Euro (1,562,678 Euro in December 31, 2015). As of March 31, 2016 the investment in the mentioned associate amounted to 15,722,394 Euros (15,227,394 Euros in December 31, 2015). The Board of Directors believes that there will not be relevant and material differences between the financial statements used to apply the equity method and the final and consolidated financial statements.

This caption also includes the ownership of Planfuro Global, S.A. (created in 2014 and owned by 50%) and of Expeliarmus-Consultoria, S.A. (created in 2015 and owned by 49%) by an amount equal to 549,998 Euro. Both entities have a residual activity in the three months periods ended on March 31, 2016.

The assessment on the existence, or not, of impairments on the investments in associates and joint ventures are based on the approved business plans.

4.3 Other investments

As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the caption "Other investments" and respective impairment losses can be detailed as follows:

31.03.2016 31.12.2015
Investments 7,713,531 7,713,531
Impairment losses (note 12) (4,220,393) (4,220,393)
3,493,138 3,493,138

As of March 31, 2016 the caption "Other investments" mainly includes an investment on Base M – Investimentos e Serviços, S.A. equity. In addition, it also includes the investment of 15.48% on CEV – Consumo em Verde, Biotecnologia das Plantas, S.A., the investment of 4% in Converde Sociedade Unipessoal, Lda., and the loans granted to these companies. The caption didn't face changes during the three months period ended as of 31 March 2016.

Since, these investments correspond to investments in non-public companies in which the Group has no significant influence. Their acquisition cost corresponds to a reliable approximation to their fair value, adjusted by the impairment costs.

The assessment on the existence, or not, of impairments on the investments in joint ventures and associated companies is based on the approved business plans.

5. CHANGES IN THE CONSOLIDATION PERIMETER

During the three months period ended as of 31 March 2016 no changes in the Group's consolidation perimeter occurred.

6. INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

Investment properties held by F. Ramada Group relate to lands rented to third parties (Altri Group) under operational lease, through contracts signed in 2007 and 2008 with an average duration of 20 years, and with the possibility of an additional period of 6 years if certain events occur. Investment properties are measured at acquisition cost. The movement occurred in this caption during the three months period ended as of 31 March 2016 and the year ended 31 December 2015 is as follows:

31.03.2016 31.12.2015
Opening balance (gross) 85,963,976 85,977,075
Aquisitions 178,905 134,739
Disposals - (147,838)
Closing balance (gross) 86,142,881 85,963,976
Impairment losses (note 12) (1,100,000) (1,100,000)
Closing balance (net) 85,042,881 84,863,976

The leased land generated, during the three months period ended as of March 31, 2016, income amounting, to approximately, 1,545,750 Euro (approximately 6,311,140 Euro in 2015).

Given the land characteristics (land leased to third parties for forestry activity), frequent market transactions comparable for this type of assets do not occur. Accordingly, the Board of Directors considers that it is not possible to reliably estimate the fair value of the land, and, as such, it is recorded at acquisition cost. However, it is the Board of Directors belief that, given the amount of rents collected annually, the market value of these assets will not be significantly different from its book value.

The impairment losses recorded (note 12) were estimated by specialized entities who made specific analysis on a group of lands.

Part of the land (amounting to, approximately, 80 million Euros) is given as collateral for certain borrowings.

7. DEFERRED INCOME TAXES

In accordance with current legislation, the tax returns are subject to review and correction by the tax authorities over a period of four years (five years for Social Security), except when tax losses have occurred, tax benefits have been granted, or inspections, complaints or disputes are on-going. In these cases, depending on the circumstances, the above referred period deadlines can be extended or suspended. Therefore, the tax returns of F. Ramada and its subsidiaries for the years 2012 to 2016 may still be subject to review.

The Board of Directors of F. Ramada believes that any potential corrections arising from reviews/inspections of these tax returns by the tax authorities will not have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2016.

The movement occurred in deferred tax assets and liabilities in the three months period ended as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, was as follows:
