EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

During the first nine months of 2014, Galp Energia continued to implement its strategy, focused on the growth of its Exploration & Production (E&P) business and on optimising the Refining & Marketing (R&M) and Gas & Power (G&P) businesses.

Regarding exploration and appraisal, it should be noted, in Brazil, the ongoing execution of the Iara evaluation plan, in BM-S-11, as well as the conclusion of the drilling of the Apollonia appraisal well in block BM-S-24, which confirmed both the extension of the Júpiter discovery and the quality of the reservoir. Also in the pre-salt of Santos basin, Galp Energia and its partners resumed the drilling of the Carcará Extension appraisal well in September which aims to assess the resource potential of the Carcará discovery. In Mozambique, it is worth mentioning the conclusion of the Coral-4 appraisal well in Area 4 of the Rovuma basin. In Morocco, Galp Energia concluded the drilling of the TAO-1 well, where no hydrocarbons were found.

Development activities proceeded in the period, namely in the Lula/Iracema field, in block BM-S-11, where FPSO Cidade de Paraty (FPSO #2) reached full production capacity. The FPSO Cidade de Mangaratiba (FPSO #3) arrived at the Iracema South area in the third quarter, where it started production during October.

Replacement cost adjusted (RCA) Ebitda during the first nine months of 2014 increased 5% year on year (yoy) to €915 million (m) as the results from the E&P and G&P businesses improved, following the increased production of oil and natural gas and the increase of LNG sales in the international markets.

Capital expenditure in the first nine months of 2014 amounted to €776 m, of which c.90% were allocated to exploration and production activities, namely to the development of Brazil's Lula/Iracema field.

Net debt at the end of September 2014 amounted to €2,438 m, or €1,583 m considering the loan to Sinopec as cash and equivalents, in which case, net debt to Ebitda was 1.3x.

OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS OF THE FIRST NINE MOTNHS OF 2014

  • Net entitlement production of oil and natural gas amounted to 24.9 kboepd, of which Brazilian production accounted for 72%;
  • Galp Energia's refining margin reached \$2.4/bbl, mainly as a result of the improvement in the third quarter of 2014 of the refining margins in international markets; the marketing of oil products maintained its positive contribution to results;
  • Natural gas sold of 5,586 million cubic metres (mm³) benefited from the increase in LNG volunes sold in the international market, with traded volumes amounting to 2,796 mm³.

EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION ACTIVITIES

Exploration and appraisal

BRAZIL

During the first nine months of 2014, Galp Energia concluded the Apollonia appraisal well in block BM-S-24, which confirmed both the extension of the Júpiter discovery and the quality of the reservoir, and whereby fluids were found with similar properties to those found in previously drilled wells such as Júpiter, Júpiter NE and Bracuhy. It is also worth noting the start of the drill stem test (DST) in the Bracuhy well, which aims to evaluate the oil flow potential of this area of the reservoir.

The consortium resumed the first drilling phase of the Carcará Extension appraisal well in September after it had been suspended in January 2014 due to technical issues with the rig's performance. The purpose of drilling this well is to appraise the resource potential of the Carcará discovery as well as to perform a DST. The second phase is scheduled for the second half of 2015 using a rig with managed pressure drilling (MPD) equipment to ensure that this high-pressure reservoir is safely drilled according to the industry's best practice.

MOZAMBIQUE

The consortium concluded in the third quarter of 2014 the drilling of the Coral-4 appraisal well, located in Area 4 of the Rovuma basin, to increase knowledge of the reservoir prior to defining the development plan for the area.

ANGOLA

Drilling of the Cominhos-3 appraisal well in Angola, which started in June, proceeded with the goal of testing the reservoir in the Oligocene and Eocene intervals and of increasing knowledge for a potential development of this area of block 32.

MOROCCO

Galp Energia concluded in the third quarter of 2014 the drilling of exploration well TAO-1, located in the Tarfaya Offshore area, where no hydrocarbons were found. The primary objective of the well was to appraise the resource potential of the Trident prospect, located in the Middle Jurassic interval. The Assaka prospect, located in the Upper Jurassic interval, was also tested but no hydrocarbons were found.

This was the first offshore well drilled by Galp Energia as the operator, and it is worth noting that these activities were conducted according to plan and had no safety, health or environmental hazards.

DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES BRAZIL

During the first nine months of 2014, Galp Energia and its partners proceeded with development activities in the Lula/Iracema area.

During the first nine months of 2014, FPSO Cidade de Paraty reached maximum production capacity, 15 months after it started operations. The fourth permanent producer well was connected to this FPSO #2 and started production in August through BSR South. The third producer well began production in September once the downhole safety valve (DHSV) issue was solved. The consortium expects the fifth producer well to be connected in the fourth quarter, which will improve production flexibility and reservoir management.

Already during the fourth quarter, FPSO Cidade de Mangaratiba started production on October 14. This FPSO, which has been allocated to the Iracema South area, will be connected to eight producing and eight injection wells. The first well connected to the FPSO has a potential productivity above 30 kbopd, although production will be restricted until the first gas injector well is connected, which is expected in December. The production of this FPSO is anticipated to reach its peak in the first half of 2016.

Construction of the remaining FPSO units to be allocated to the Lula/Iracema field proceeded in the period.

The hull of FPSO Cidade de Itaguaí (FPSO #4), the unit which is scheduled to start production during the fourth quarter of 2015 in the Iracema North area, was converted in a Cosco shipyard, in China, and will soon sail away to the Brasfels shipyard in Angra dos Reis, in Brazil, where the topsides will be integrated. The hull of the FPSO units which will be allocated to the Lula Alto and Lula Central areas, FPSO Cidade de Maricá and FPSO Cidade de Saquarema, respectively, which are scheduled to start operations in the first half of 2016, are being converted in the Chengxi shipyards, also in China.

As for the replicant FPSO units, works on the hull of P-66 are ongoing and it is expected to set sail to the Brasfels shipyard in Angra dos Reis, in Brazil, until the end of November 2014. The works related to the

integration of the blocks of the P-67 and P-69 hull are underway in the dry dock of the Rio Grande do Sul shipyard, and works on the P-68 are in progress in the Cosco shipyard, in China.

Galp Energia and its partners proceeded with the well development plan in the Lula/Iracema area. Under the development plan for the Lula NE area, 11 wells have been drilled so far, six of which are producer wells. In the Lula-1 area, three complementary wells, one producer and two injector wells, are planned for drilling and subsequent connection to support production from FPSO Cidade Angra dos Reis (FPSO#1). In the first nine months of 2014, the drilling and completion of one of the planned injector wells was concluded, and is expected to be connected in November. The high-angle well P8H is also expected to be connected to FPSO #1 in November 2014.

Regarding the Iracema South development plan, the drilling of 12 wells has been concluded until the end of the period.

Regarding the areas subsequent to Iracema South, the consortium has concluded the drilling of 23 wells under the Lula/Iracema development plan.

The second reservoir data acquisition (RDA) well in the Iara area started to be drilled in the first nine months of 2014 with the aim of testing the quality of the carbonate reservoirs and of confirming the oilwater contact (OWC) in the flank of the Iara area. Drilling is expected to be concluded until the end of 2014.

The extended well test (EWT), that began in the Iara West area in June will last until the end of 2014. While operating, the EWT recorded an average production of 29 kbopd, having been subject to short interruptions for testing and data collection. The EWT is being performed by FPSO Dynamic Producer.

ANGOLA

In the Tômbua-Lândana (TL) field, the drilling of a producer well was concluded in the first nine months of 2014.

OPERATIONS

During the first nine months of 2014, average working interest production increased 18% yoy to 28.5 kboepd, following the higher contribution from Brazil, which increased 50% yoy to 18.0 kboepd. This increase was supported by the rising production from FPSO #2 and the contribution from the EWTs performed in the Lula Central, Lula South and Iara areas, which had an average combined production of 1.9 kbopd. FPSO #1 operated steadily during the period.

Working interest production in Angola decreased 14% as production from the Kuito field, in block 14, declined. Nonetheless, production from the BBLT field increased around 9% yoy as new wells came into production.

Net entitlement production increased around 22% yoy to 24.9 kboepd, primarily on the back of higher production in Brazil.

RESULTS

Ebitda for the first nine months of 2014 increased €55 m yoy to €342 m following higher net entitlement production.

The average sale price in the period was \$98.8/boe, up from \$98.2/boe in the first nine months of 2013. This was due to the lower weight of natural gas in total production, despite lower oil prices in the international markets.

Production costs of €72 m were €17 m higher than a year earlier following the start of production of FPSO #2 in June 2013 and the operation of the EWTs in Brazil's Lula Central, Lula South and Iara areas. On the other hand, production costs decreased €5 m yoy in Angola as a decrease of production and of the decommissioning of Kuito FPSO, in December 2013. In unit terms, production costs increased \$1.3/boe yoy to \$14.3/boe.

Other operating costs amounted to €43 m, down €4 m yoy.

Depreciation, excluding abandonment charges, decreased €13 m yoy to €98 m as the Kuito FPSO was decommissioned in the Kuito field and notwithstanding the higher depreciation charges in Brazil that followed from a larger asset base and increasing production. In unit terms, depreciation charges decreased \$6.7/boe yoy to \$19.6/boe.

Abandonment charges during the period were €13 m, down from €34 m a year earlier.

As a result, Ebit for the E&P business segment during the first nine months of 2014 amounted to €231 m, up €90 m from a year earlier.

Natural gas sold in the period increased 8% yoy to 5,586 mm³ as volumes of LNG traded in international markets increased 571 mm3 yoy.

In contrast, volumes sold to direct clients decreased 5% following lower demand from both the residential and industrial segments. Whereas volumes sold to the residential segment were impacted by increased competition in the Iberian market, the contraction in the industrial segment followed the rationalisation of portfolio of clients and from the decrease in own consumptions during the general outage at the Sines refinery. The volumes sold to the electrical segment were in line with a year earlier.

Sales of electricity to the grid fell 201 GWh yoy to 1,216 GWh due to the shutdown of the Energin cogeneration.

RESULTS

Ebitda for the G&P business increased 5% yoy to €337 m primarily on the back of better results from the supply & trading activity.

The regulated infrastructure and power businesses generated a combined Ebitda of €141 m, which reflected the stable contribution of these activities to results.

Depreciation and amortisation increased €2 m yoy to €48 m after the Matosinhos cogeneration started operations at the end of the first quarter of 2013.

Provisions of €10 m were in line with a year earlier.

As a result, Ebit for the G&P business segment in the first nine months of 2014 increased 7% yoy to €279 m.

Turnover fell 10% yoy to €13,434 m as the volume of oil products sold decreased, and as the price for oil and oil products declined in international markets.

Operating costs also fell by 11% yoy to €12,542 m, as the cost of goods sold declined. Supply and services cost increased 7% to €839 m, namely after the increase in variable costs related to the production of oil and natural gas, and the increase in international freight rates.

Ebitda increased €46 m yoy to €915 m as the results from the E&P and G&P business segments improved following the increased production of oil and natural gas and the increase of LNG sales in international markets.

Ebit increased 17% yoy to €516 m, reflecting the improved operating performance of the E&P and G&P businesses as well as the lower depreciation charges in the E&P business and lower provisions in the R&M business.

Results from associates amounted to €46 m, with the international gas pipelines contributing with €38 m in the period.

Net financial expense increased €6 m yoy to €96 m mainly as a result of unfavourable exchange differences of €22 m, up from €8 m a year earlier. This effect was partly offset by lower net interest expenses, which amounted to €96 m in the period.

Taxes increased €44 m to €181 m as the E&P business increased its contribution to Group results.

Non-controlling interests increased €8 m yoy to €51 m.

As a result, RCA net profit for the first nine months of 2014 amounted to €236 m, up €18 m from a year earlier.

IFRS net profit of €76 m was adversely impacted by non-recurrent items of €94 m, primarily related to impairments in the E&P business, and by inventory effects.

1 Loan to Sinopec considered as cash and equivalents.

Net debt on 30 September 2014 amounted to €2,438 m, which was stable when compared to the end of June 2014, as investment in fixed assets and the payment of the interim dividend related to the 2014 fiscal year were offset by the strong cash flow from operating activities.

Net debt at the end of the first nine months of 2014 amounted to €1,583 m, considering the €855 m balance of the loan to Sinopec as cash and equivalents.

Net debt to Ebitda at the end of September 2014 was 1.3x, considering the loan to Sinopec as cash and equivalents.

On 30 September 2014, 41% of the debt was on a fixed-rate basis. Medium- and long-term debt accounted for 94% of the total, in line with the end of June 2014.

The average interest rate at the end of the first nine months of 2014 was 4.3% and debt at the end of the period had an average maturity of 3.8 years.

Around 65% of the debt outstanding on 30 September 2014 matures from 2018 onwards, in accordance with the objective to align debt repayment with the Company's expected cash flow profile.

At the end of the first nine months of 2014, Galp Energia had unused credit lines of €1.2 bn, 60% of which were contractually guaranteed.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Galp Energia's consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended on 30 September 2014 and 2013 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The financial information in the consolidated income statement is reported for the nine months ended on 30 September 2014 and 2013. The financial information in the consolidated financial position is reported on 30 September 2014, 30 June 2014 and 31 December 2013.

Galp Energia's financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS and the cost of goods sold is valued at weighted-average cost. The use of this valuation method may, when goods and commodities prices fluctuate, cause volatility in results through gains or losses in inventories, which do not reflect the Company's operating performance. This effect is called the inventory effect.

Another factor that may affect the Company's results but is not an indicator of its true performance is the set of non-recurrent items, such as gains or losses on the disposal of assets, impairments or reinstatements of fixed assets and environmental or restructuring charges.

For the purpose of evaluating Galp Energia's operating performance, RCA profit measures exclude non-recurrent items and the inventory effect, the latter because the cost of goods sold has been calculated according to the Replacement cost (RC) valuation method.

This retail marketing activity, using the Galp Energia brand, also includes Angola, Cape Verde, Spain, Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique and Swaziland through fully owned subsidiaries of the Group.

b3) Natural gas activity and electricity production and commercialisation

The Gas & Power (G&P) business segment encompasses the areas of procurement, supply, distribution and storage of natural gas and electric and thermal power generation.

The operations of the Galp Power Group subsidiaries consist in producing and trading electric, thermal and wind power in Portugal and Spain.

The Power activity generates electricity and thermal power, which is supplied to large industrial customers and residential ones.

Galp Energia presently participates in wind farms and in six cogeneration plants, one being under construction, with a total installed capacity of 254 MW.

The natural gas activity includes (i) procurement and supply and (ii) distribution and supply.

The accompanying financial statements are presented in the functional currency euros, as this is the currency preferentially used in the financial environment in which the Company operates.

The values are presented in thousands of euros, unless otherwise stated.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Galp Energia's consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, at historical cost except for financial derivative instruments which are stated at fair value, on the accounting records of the companies included in the consolidation maintained in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union (EU), effective for the year beginning 1 January 2014. These standards include IFRS issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and International Accounting Standards (IAS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Committee (IASC) and respective interpretations SIC and IFRIC, issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee (IFRIC) and Standing Interpretation Committee (SIC). These standards and interpretations are hereinafter referred to as IFRS.

The Board of Directors believes that the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes provide for a fair presentation of the consolidated interim financial information prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. Estimates that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and income and costs were used in preparing the consolidated financial statements. The estimates and assumptions used by the Board of Directors were based on the best information available regarding events and transactions in process at the time of approval of the consolidated financial statements.

In respect to the construction contracts contemplated by the IFRIC12, construction activity for assets under concession is subcontracted to specialised entities which assume their own construction activity risk. Income and expenses associated with the construction of these assets are of equal amounts and are recognised as other operating costs and other operating income.

As on 30 September 2014 only material changes required by IFRS 7 were disclosed. For all other disclosures under this standard refer to the Company's consolidated financial statements as on 31 December 2013.

2.1. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Resulting from the mandatory application from 1 January 2014, on Galp Energia Group, of IFRS 11 – Joint Arrangements , the Group identified (i) Sigás Armazenagem de Gás, ACE; and (ii) Multiservícios Galp Barcelona, UTE, as entities in which the

shareholders have the joint operational and financial control over the assets and liabilities of the companies. Accordingly, the assets, liabilities, gains and losses were integrated in each owner company in the corresponding percentage held, i.e. 60% and 50%, respectively. The impacts on the financial statements are presented in Note 3.

As on 30 September 2014, the group reclassified gains and losses relating to Energy Trading operations (time value of future CO₂ and electricity contracts) from the caption of "Other financial income and expenses" to the caption "Financial instruments".

a) Established companies:

The subsidiary Petróleo de Portugal – Petrogal, S.A. subscribed and paid 100% of the capital Galp Marketing Internacional, S.A., which was established in February 2014.

b) Acquired companies:

In May 2014, through its subsidiary GDP – Gás de Portugal, SGPS, S.A., the Group acquired from Jorge Mendes, a 0.032% stake in the subsidiary Lusitaniagás - Companhia de Gás do Centro, S.A. by the amount of € 23k. With this acquisition the Group now holds 96.8429% of the shares in the subsidiary.

The difference between the amount paid and the book value of equity at the acquisition date, was recognised in the statement of consolidated results under the heading "Results of investments in associates and jointly controlled entities" in the amount of € 2k (Note 4.2).

c) Dissolved and liquidated companies:

On 27 June 2014, Petrogal Trading Limited, a subsidiary of Petróleos de Portugal – Petrogal, S.A., was dissolved. The group recognised an amount of €260,000 in its consolidated financial statements (Note 4.2) which is related to the exchange rate differences while converting the financial statements of the subsidiary Petrogal Trading Limited,

expressed in a foreign currency (USD), that were accounted for in the heading equity, in the item of conversion reserves.

For the period that ended on 30 September 2014, Petrogal Cabo Verde, Lda. a subsidiary controlled by Petróleos de Portugal – Petrogal, S.A. (95%) and by Galp Exploração e Produção Petrolífera, S.A. (5%), was dissolved. Due to this operation the group recognised in its consolidated financial statements the amount of €39,000 (Note 4.2).

e) IFRS 11 – Joint arrangements:

With the application of IFRS 11 – Joint arrangements, the subsidiaries (i) Sigás Armazenagem de Gás, ACE; and (ii) Multiservícios Galp Barcelona, began to be integrated into the individual accounts of the shareholders of its capital by the percentage held, and consequently started to be included in the consolidated financial statements (Note 4.1).

f) Corporate Restructuring:

more simplified structure the companies are connected by business under the same sub-holding. The following operations were made considering the organisational restructuring of the Group:

  • The subsidiary Petróleos de Portugal Petrogal, S.A., has subsidiaries that operate in the distribution segment and that have their headquarters in the African continent. Within the organic restructuring of the Group, it is intended to allocate those holdings to a new company that is 100% held by Petróleos de Portugal – Petrogal, S.A. For this purpose Petróleos de Portugal – Petrogal, S.A. subscribed and paid for 100% of the capital of Galp Marketing Internacional, S.A., which was created on February 2014.
  • On 20 June 2014, Petróleos de Portugal Petrogal, S.A. sold to its subsidiary Galp Marketing Internacional, S.A., 95.84% of the capital held in Petrogal Guiné-Bissau, Lda.

5. OPERATING INCOME

The Group's operating income for the periods ended on 30 September 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

13,621,432 15,020,116

Sales of fuel include the Portuguese Tax on Oil Products (ISP).

The variation on the caption "Sales" is mainly due to a decrease in the amount of crude oil processed in the case of product sales, which was offset by an increase in gas trading for export.

The regulated revenue to be refunded in 2013-2014 gas year was approved by the Portuguese Energy Regulator (ERSE); therefore the Group recognises in the consolidated income statement the reversal of the amount of the approved tariff deviation.

Regarding the construction contracts subject to IFRIC12, construction activity of the concession assets is subcontracted to specialised entities which assume their own construction activity risk. Income and expenses associated with the construction of these assets are of equal amounts and are immaterial when compared to total revenues and operating costs and can be detailed as follows:

  • Distribution network usage(URD);
  • Transportation network usage (URT);

The main inter-segmental transactions of sales and services rendered are primarily related to:

  • Gas & Power: natural gas sales for the refining process of Leixões and Sines refineries (refining and marketing of oil products);
  • Refining & Marketing: supply of fuel to all Group company vehicles;
  • Exploration & Production: sales of crude to the Refining & Marketing of oil products segment; and
  • Other: back-office and management services.

The commercial and financial transactions between related parties are performed according to the usual market conditions similar to transactions performed with independent companies.

The assumptions underlying the determination of prices in transactions between Group companies rely on the consideration of the economic realities and characteristics of the situations at hand, that is, comparing the characteristics of operations or companies that might have impact on the intrinsic conditions of the commercial transactions in analysis. In this context, among other, the goods and services traded, the functions performed by the parties (including the assets used and risks assumed), the contractual terms, the economic situation of the parties as well as their negotiation strategies, are analysed.

Compensation, in the context of related parties, corresponds to what is appropriate, by rule, to the functions performed by each company involved, taking into account the assets used and risks assumed. Thus, to determine such compensation the Group identifies the activities, the risks faced by companies in the value creating chain of goods/services traded in accordance with their functional profile, particularly, in what concerns the functions they perform - import, manufacturing, distribution, and retail.

In conclusion, market prices are determined not only by analysing the functions performed, the assets used and the risks incurred by one entity, but also considering the contribution of those elements to the Company's profitability. This analysis assesses whether the profitability indicators of the companies involved fall within the estimated ranges on the basis of the assessment of a panel of functionally comparable independent companies, thus allowing the prices to be fixed in order to respect the competition principle.

Potential foreign exchange differences from Brazil result from the tax option to tax potential foreign exchange differences only when they are realised. The amount of €10,569 k reflected in equity includes €7,369 k regarding deferred taxes resulting from currency exchange differences of financial endowments that are similar to "quasi" equity (Note 20) and €3,200 k regarding noncontrolling interests.

Due to the publication of the Real Decreto-Ley 20/2012 of 13 July, a limiting clause on the deduction of net financial charges amounting to 30% of operating income with certain conditions was introduced in the Spanish tax legislation, and also noted that it is allowed the tax recognition of net financial charges of €1,000 k regardless of the operating result obtained.

The impact of financial charges not fiscally accepted on the Group's subsidiaries established in Spanish territory amounted to a tax amount of approximately €14,670 k.

Given that the previously mentioned law decree establishes a compensation period for such costs of 18 years and given that the Company believes that the recovery will take place during this timeline, a deferred tax asset by the same amount was recorded.

During the first nine months of 2014, the Group recognised deferred assets amounting to €5,017 k (R\$15,567,400.00), associated with Block BM-S-11, due to the difference between the tax basis determined in accordance with the Special Participation Tax (SPT) and the accounting basis of abandonment provision, depreciation and signing bonus.

The amount of €1,082 k in the caption "Sale of finished goods to be invoiced by the service stations" relates to sales made up to 30 September 2014 through "Galp Frota" cards, which will be invoiced in the following months.

Expenses recorded in the caption "Deferred costs" in the amount of €31,830 k, are in respect of advance payments of income related to service station rental contracts which are expensed during the concession period, which ranges between 17 and 32 years.

Galp Energia has recovered during 2014 an amount of €14,012 k related with energy tariff deviation. This recovery is in accordance with the estimated recovery of the tariff deficit for a six year period, as published by ERSE.

The caption "Adjustments to tariff deviation – regulated revenue" amounting to €85,504 k respects to the difference between the estimated regulated revenue published for each regulated activity and the invoiced amount. These amounts are remunerated at a three-month Euribor interest rate.

Payable or receivable amounts in respect of each regulated gas year are presented for each activity on a net basis, depending on their nature each gas year, given that this is the method for approval of deviations from regulated revenue by ERSE.

From 2010 onwards, the regulated Financial Statements (ERSE Accounts) started being reported in accordance with the calendar year. Therefore the opening balances have been reclassified according to this change.

The total recoverable amount was included by ERSE in the recoverable regulated revenue Gas Year 2013-2014, therefore the Group recognises in the income statement the reversal of the amount which corresponds to the approved tariff deviation.

The caption "Accrued income – financial neutrality – ERSE regulation" concerns the gradual reposition of financial neutrality associated with the extinction of the mechanism of smoothing capital cost on the first regulatory period, resulting from the difference between the cost of capital smoothed and not smoothed, to be recovered during six years. Accrued amounts relate to the recoverable amounts from gas tariff in the 13-14 and 14-15 regulatory gas year.

The Group considers as amounts not yet due, the balance of other receivables that are not in arrears and the captions "Accruals of income" and "Deferred costs" amounting to €491,013 k and €502,837 k in 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The balance of other receivables overdue which has not suffered impairment corresponds to credits which have payment agreements, are covered by credit insurance or for which there is an expectation of partial or total liquidation.

Accounts receivable are collateralised, namely with bank guarantees and other collaterals which amount, approximately, to €86,639 k as on 30 September 2014.

19. SHARE CAPITAL

Capital structure

In 2012, after the shareholders agreement in place since March 2006 between Amorim Energia, CGD and Eni, collectively referred to as the Parties, agreements were signed which stipulated the conditions under which Eni could sell its stake in Galp Energia. Eni, which at year-end 2011 held a stake of 33.34%, thus acquired the right to sell in the market up to 20% of the share capital of the Company. In turn, CGD was now able to exercise a tag along right, referring to its 1% stake in the share capital of Galp Energia.

On 27 November 2012, Eni placed on the market shares representing approximately 4% of Galp Energia's share capital through an accelerated bookbuilding, while CGD exercised its tag-along right. On that date, Eni also issued bonds exchangeable into Galp Energia shares, corresponding to approximately 8% of the Company's share capital.

Also under the agreement signed in 2012, Amorim Energia acquired from Eni a 5% stake on Galp Energia's share capital, at a price of €14.25 per share, thus holding a 38.34% interest in the Company. Furthermore, Amorim Energia, or a designated third party, had the right to purchase, until the end of 2013, a 5% stake, as well as a right of first refusal over a stake of 3.34% or 8.34%, depending on whether the first right would be exercised or not.

At the end of May 2013, Eni announced the sale of a 6.7% interest in Galp Energia s share capital. In the meantime, Eni had already sold an interest of approximately 1.3% directly in the regulated market.

On 28 March 2014, Eni placed in the market shares representing approximately 7% of the share capital of Galp Energia through an accelerated bookbuilding process, having sold in the meantime, on regulated market, shares representing approximately 0.34% of Galp Energia's share capital. On both sales Amorim Energia, did not exercise the right of first refusal.

On 23 June 2014 Eni announced the completion of the sale on the regulated market of common shares representing approximately 1% of the share capital of Galp Energia, and corresponding to the residual portion of shares subject to the first offer right of Amorim Energia as established in the agreement previously announced to the market, which was not exercised by that company. Thus, following this transaction, Eni held 66,337,592 ordinary shares representing approximately 8% of the share capital of Galp Energia as an asset underlying the convertible bonds issued by Eni on 30 November 2012.

Following these changes in Galp Energia's owner structure, free-float went from 38.32% by the end of 2013 up to 46.66% in the first semester of 2014.

Under the agreements signed between the Parties, and under paragraph 1. c) of article 20 of the Portuguese Securities Code (CVM), the voting rights attached to the shares held by each of the parties of the shareholders' agreement were attributed to

the others. This ceased to apply to CGD when it sold its stake of 1% of Galp Energia's share capital. Regarding Amorim Energia and Eni, the Italian company notified Galp Energia on 26 July 2013 that the voting rights attached to the qualified holdings of Amorim Energia were not considered attributable to Eni, despite the fact that the voting rights held by Eni were still attributable to Amorim Energia.

Thus, at the end of the first nine month of 2014, Eni held a qualified holding of 8.00% of Galp Energia's share capital, and the corresponding voting rights, while a total percentage of 46.34% were attributable to Amorim Energia.

As result of the above, the Company's capital structure as on 30 September 2014 was as follows:

No. of shares % of capital Voting rights (%)
Amorim Energia, B.V. 317,934,693 38.34% 46.34%
Eni, S.p.A. 66,337,592 8.00% 8.00%

Hedging reserves:

Legal reserves

In accordance with the Company's Bylaws and the Commercial Code, the Company must transfer a minimum of 5% of its annual net profit to a legal reserve until the reserve reaches 20% of the share capital. The legal reserve cannot be distributed to the shareholders but may in certain circumstances be used to increase capital or to absorb losses after all the other reserves have been utilised. In 2014 the caption did not change as the legal reserve has already reached 20% of the share capital.

Special reserves

The amount of €443 k in the caption "Special reserves" includes €463 k relating to a deferred tax correction – revaluation of equity in the subsidiary Lisboagás GDL - Sociedade Distribuidora de Gás Natural de Lisboa, S.A. and the negative amount of €20 k relating to a donation reserve in subsidiary Gasinsular – Combustíveis do Atlântico, S.A.

Reserves – Capital increases in Petrogal Brazil, S.A. and Galp Brazil Services, B.V.

On 28 March 2012 the company WIP, a subsidiary of Tip Top Energy, SARL. (Sinopec Group), subscribed and paid for an increase in capital in the amount of \$4,797,528,044.74 in subsidiaries Petrogal Brasil, S.A. and Galp Sinopec Brazil Services, B.V. (formerly Galp Brazil Services B.V.), thus holding 30% of shares and voting rights of both subsidiaries.

With this capital increase operation, the Galp Energia Group kept the operational and financial control of the Company, owning 70% of capital and voting rights, and continuing, under IAS 27, to consolidate their assets by the integral method. Therefore, the difference between the amount realised from the capital increase and the book value of equity at the date of the increase was recognised in equity in reserves by the amount of €2,493,088 k.

Reserves – Increase of 11.097% stake in the capital of subsidiary Lusitaniagás – Companhia de Gás do Centro, S.A.

In July 2012, the Group acquired 10.7532% stake in subsidiary Lusitaniagás – Companhia de Gás do Centro, S.A., which was previously controlled by the Group and consolidated using the integral method. Thus the difference between the amount paid and the book value of equity at the acquisition date is recognised in equity in reserves by the amount of €1,935 k.

In May 2013, the Group acquired a 0.3438% stake in subsidiary Lusitaniagás – Companhia de Gás do Centro, S.A. from Revigrés – Indústria de Revestimentos de Grés, Lda. and recognised in equity reserves in the amount of €92 k due to the difference between the amount paid and the book value.

Reserves – 40% increase in the share capital of the subsidiary Probigalp – Ligantes Betuminosos, S.A.

In September 2013, the Group acquired a 40% stake in subsidiary Probigalp – Bituminous Binders, SA, which was previously controlled by the Group and consolidated by the full consolidation method. Thus the difference between the amount paid and the book value of equity at the acquisition date was recognised in equity in reserves by the amount of €3,975 k.

Reserves – Increase of 99% in the capital of subsidiary Enerfuel, S.A.

Under the agreement dated July 2013 under which the Group had agreed to purchase the remaining capital participation at the conclusion of the industrial unit project, the Group acquired 99% of the share capital of Enerfuel, S.A. However, as it was previously controlled by the Group, it was already consolidated using the integral method. Thus the difference between the amount paid and the book value of equity at the acquisition date, is recognised in equity in reserves by the amount of €31 k.

The amount of €9,302 k corresponds to the change of non-controlling share interests reflected on share issue premium caption.
  • (b) The subsidiary Lusitaniagás Companhia de Gás do Centro, SA, which was previously owned in 96.8109% is now owned in 96.84293% by the Group.

The negative amount of €16 k corresponds to the change on non-controlling interests on the captions of accumulated results until the capital increase date.

  • (c) As on 30 September 2014, the subsidiary has negative equity. Thus, the Group only recognised accumulated losses in proportion to the capital owned in that subsidiary, which is why the minority interests have a debit balance.
  • (d) The amount of €4,330 k corresponds to attributed dividends, already paid as on 30 September 2014 (Note 30).

  • ii) €3,377 k concerning the tax risk associated with the sale of the interests in ONI, SGPS, to Galp Energia, SGPS, S.A.

The reduction in the provision for taxes in the amount of €5,322 k was originated by a favourable court decision in respect of the legal process of corrections made to the tax base, resulting from the inspection to the income tax return of 2005 and 2006 of Galp Energia, SGPS, S.A. and the subsidiary GDP – Gás de Portugal, SGPS, S.A.

Environmental

The amount of €3,453 k in the caption environmental provisions aims to sustain the costs related with legally mandatory soil decontamination of some facilities occupied by the Group where by legal enforcement there is a decision for decontamination.

27. OTHER FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – DERIVATIVES

The Group uses financial derivatives to hedge interest rate and market fluctuation risks, namely risks of change in crude oil prices, finished products and refining margins, as well as risks of change in natural gas and electricity prices, which affect the amount of assets and future cash flows resulting from its operations.

Financial derivatives are defined, in accordance with IAS/IFRS, as "financial assets at fair value through profit and loss" or "financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss". The interest rate financial derivatives that are contracted to hedge the change in interest rates on borrowings are designated as "cash flow hedges". Interest rate financial derivatives that are contracted to hedge changes in the fair value of borrowings or to cover other risks that might affect the profit and loss are designated as "fair value hedges".

The fair value of financial derivatives was determined by financial entities, applying generally accepted techniques and evaluation models.

In accordance with IFRS 13 an entity must classify the fair value measurement based on a hierarchy that reflects the meaning of the inputs used in measurement. The fair value hierarchy must have the following levels:

  • ˗ Level 1 quoted prices (not adjusted) for similar instruments;
  • ˗ Level 2 other directly or indirectly observable market inputs for the asset or the liability; and
  • ˗ Level 3 inputs for the asset or the liability not based on observable market data (not observable).

The fair value of financial derivatives (swaps) was determined by financial entities using observable market inputs and using generally accepted techniques and models (Level 2).

REPLACEMENT COST (RC)

According to this method of valuing inventories, the cost of goods sold is valued at the of replacement, i.e. at the average cost of raw materials on the month when sales materialise irrespective of inventories at the start or end of the period. The Replacement Cost Method is not accepted by accounting standards – either Portuguese GAAP or IFRS – and is consequently not adopted for valuing inventories. This method does not reflect the cost of replacing other assets.

REPLACEMENT COST ADJUSTED (RCA)

In addition to using the replacement cost method, adjusted profit excludes non-recurrent events such as capital gains or losses on the disposal of assets, impairment or reinstatement of fixed assets and environmental or restructuring charges which may affect the analysis of the Company's profit and do not reflect its operational performance.
