MESSAGE FROM THE
CHAIRMAN AND CEO
'2019 was a remarkable year in which all our Companies delivered growth in sales, profits and
cash flow while strengthening their competitive positions and implementing transformational
initiatives that will pave the way for a new growth cycle.
PEDRO SOARES DOS SANTOS Biedronka grew strongly in sales and profits. Our main Company maintained the innovation
rhythm and continuously improved its operations, namely through the increased testing of new
technological solutions.
Pingo Doce achieved its best historical results ever. It also completed the project for a new store
concept, to be developed in 2020, focused on the clear competitive advantage being built by
the banner in meal solutions.
Ara carried out a strategic organizational change to provide the various regions with more
autonomy, which is a fundamental step towards the future success of the operation. At the
same time, the Company reduced its losses aiming to reach breakeven at EBITDA level by 2021.
We fulfilled the plan set for 2019 and we were also able to continue to make progress in
environmental and social sustainability best practices. Hence, we have reasons to look
confidently to 2020 - a year in which Pingo Doce celebrates its 40th anniversary and Biedronka
its 25th
- and we believe that it will be another year of profitable and sustainable growth for our
businesses.'

2019 Full Year Results

OUTLOOK 2020

The rigorous execution of the 2019 plan strengthened the value propositions of all our banners, that enter 2020 more competitive and better prepared to meet consumers' needs.

In Poland, we anticipate a continued healthy economic context and a slowdown of the food inflation from the levels registered in the second half of 2019. In 2020 the Food Retail sector will be impacted by the final stage of the Sunday ban, with the incremental loss of seven days of trading.

Biedronka will remain focused on capturing the LFL opportunities created by a positive consumer demand, namely through its ambitious refurbishment plan (estimated in c.250 stores in 2020).

Together with the LFL performance, the main drivers of profitable growth in 2020 will be a granular management of the margin mix and permanent focus on efficiency.

Hebe will remain focused on expanding its store network and e-commerce operation, while improving its margin mix to drive EBITDA growth.

In Portugal,we expect a stable consumer environment. Pingo Doce and Recheio will maintain their commercial dynamics and focus on the quality of their value propositions, with special attention given to the assortment's innovation, store refurbishments and differentiation in key categories in fresh and ready-to-eat.

Pingo Doce will develop a new store concept, focused on the restaurant and ready-to-eat area supported by the increased capacity brought by the recent opening of another central kitchen and with additional investment in meal solutions' know-how.

In Colombia, the economic outlook is positive, and Ara will keep focused on profitable growth, with LFL as its key priority.

The expansion plan together with the reinforcement of the value proposition (assortment and strong price position) will also accelerate the reduction of EBITDA losses to reach the respective breakeven by 2021. The two Distribution Centres that started operations in the beginning of 2020 and the consolidation of the price strategy implemented in 2019 will help drive Company growth.

The Group's capex programme for 2020 is estimated at €700-750 mn. The expansion plan is expected to add more than 100 net locations to Biedronka (c.60% of which with the standard format and the remainder under the smaller format), c.50 to Hebe, c.10 to Pingo Doce, 1 to Recheio and c.130 to Ara.

The strength of the Group's balance sheet, together with its cash generation capacity, ensures the flexibility to pursue non-organic growth while investing in a high-quality store network with innovative and efficient solutions.

Note: When applying, from the 1st of January 2019, the new accounting standard on leases - IFRS16 – the Group decided to adopt the modified retrospective method, according to which there is no restatement of historical data. As the adoption of the new standard also does not change the way Jerónimo Martins manages and measures the operating performance of its businesses, the below analysis does not consider the application of IFRS16. The impact of this standard on the Group financial statements is presented in the Appendix 1 of this release.

SALES PERFORMANCE

In 2019, the successful execution of our strategies in the three markets in which we operate added €1.3 bn to the Group's sales, strengthening competitive positions.

The Group's sales were €18.6 bn, 7.5% above the previous year (+8.4% at constant exchange rates), with LFL of 5.3%.

In Poland, consumer demand remained healthy and continued to promote trading up in the food basket. Food inflation in the country was at 4.9%.

The retail sector continued to adapt to the gradual implementation of the Sunday trading ban which resulted in 13 fewer trading days on top of the 21 already lost in 2018.

Biedronka recorded a remarkable sales growth of 7.9% to €12.6 bn (+8.8% in local currency).

LFL growth was at 5.8%, reflecting the continuous improvement of the offer and of the shopping experience. The assertiveness of the pricing strategy, based on a strong combination of Every Day Low Prices (EDLP) and attractive promotional mechanics, contributed to this strong result. Basket inflation at c.2.5% in the year, also added up to this positive performance.

Despite the incremental 13 days of ban versus 2018, Hebe grew sales by 24.9% to €259 mn (+25.9% in local currency), also supported by the encouraging start of e-commerce.

In Portugal the consumer environment was favourable during the year while food inflation remained low at 0.3%.

Pingo Doce grew its total sales by 2.9% to €3.9 bn, including a 2.5% LFL (excluding fuel).

Recheio recorded a good year with sales reaching the milestone of €1 bn, 2.7% above the previous year. On a LFL basis, growth was 3.2%.

In Colombia, the consumer environment was more favourable than in the previous year, though the market remained very competitive.

Ara increased sales in local currency by 37.9%, including a notable LFL of 17.6%. In euros, sales increased by 30.8% to €784 mn.

Underlying this good performance was the strategic priority given by all banners to quality and innovation in the offer, to price positioning and to the promotional strategy, allowing us to meet the evolving needs and aspirations of consumers.

This dynamic led to the launch of 139 Private Brand products at Biedronka, 183 at Pingo Doce, 146 at Recheio and 68 at Ara.

This work on the assortment is key for improving the intrinsic quality of the banners' offer. In this context, the nutritional reformulation of Private Brand and Fresh products prevented the entry into the market of 90 tons of fat, 300 tons of saturated fat, 1,487 tons of sugar and 14 tons of salt.

Improving packaging is also an important part of our efforts, with 76 packaging eco-design projects being implemented during the year, which contributed to the annual savings of c.3,500 tons of packaging materials.

2019 Full Year Results

This thinking around the assortment will remain a source of differentiation and value creation in the markets in which we operate.

RESULTS PERFORMANCE

The Group's EBITDA reached €1,045 mn, 8.9% above 2018. At constant exchange rates, EBITDA grew 9.3%. This growth reflects the resilience of Biedronka's EBITDA margin, improvements in Pingo Doce and Recheio and the positive evolution in Ara and Hebe.

[figures excluding IFRS16, unless otherwise stated]

This solid performance was achieved in a year in which the Group was also focused on strengthening structural areas at corporate level, in order to anticipate trends and prepare the business to face the challenges, namely the ones related with sustainability, security, human resources and innovation.

EBITDA & EBITDA Margin

Biedronka recorded an EBITDA of €918 mn, an increase of 7.9% on previous year (+8.8% at constant exchange rate).

The Company effectively managed the margin mix, investing in sales growth through relevant promotions and the preservation of price leadership, which, together with a healthy LFL, allowed the banner to maintain the EBITDA margin at 7.3%.

Pingo Doce recorded an EBITDA of €200 mn, 6.4% above the previous year. The margin was 5.1%, an

increase from the 4.9% recorded in 2018. This performance was due to the good LFL growth and to a favourable margin mix.

Recheio reached an EBITDA of €55 mn, 4.6% above 2018, with the respective margin at 5.5% versus 5.4% in 2018. The good sales performance was the basis for another year of profitable growth.

For Hebe, 2019 was the year in which the Company reached the breakeven at the EBITDA level, as a result of a good sales performance and the work carried out on margin mix.

For Ara, 2019 confirmed the inflection at the EBITDA losses that totalled €62 mn, 15.0% down on the €73 mn registered in 2018 (-10.3% in local currency). This improvement was registered despite the Company's decision to strengthen the planned investment in price for the year, which in turn, led to a substantial acceleration of LFL growth and, consequently, of sales density.

It should also be noted that the Group continued to protect its supply chain in Portugal, through investment in the Agribusiness area, whose recently installed capacity – in dairy, meat and fish will allow a larger scale of operations with a positive impact on its future efficiency.

As the quality of the supply chain of the various Companies is a strategic pillar of competitive positioning in each market, it should also be noted that local purchasing, a fundamental criterion for responsible business, remained above our 80% established target, amounting to c.90% in 2019.

In terms of corporate structure, in line with the size of the Group and with a view to medium and long-term risk management, some of the teams were strengthened and several projects were developed to ensure best practices in terms of human resources policies, safety and security, innovation and corporate responsibility, among others.

2019 was another year of profitable growth based on good sales performances, with detailed management of the mix and a permanent focus on the efficiency of cost structures. In this context, innovation and technology play an increasingly important role in doing more and better in a sustainable manner, contributing in 2019 to reduce the Group's carbon footprint by 21.3% (per €1,000 of sales), contributing to the target established for the 2018-2020 period.

Net financial costs were €29 mn. Among these, net interests stood at €23 mn, above the €20 mn euros in 2018, reflecting higher debt in Colombian pesos as a result of the Group's decision, in its financing operations, to favour debt in local currency for natural hedging of the investment.

Other profits and losses amounted to €-15 mn, reflecting restructuring costs, the review of the actuarial calculations of employee benefit obligations, write-offs and impairments.

The effective tax rate was lower than in the previous year as a result of a tax recovery related to a double taxation paid in 2017, which the Group disputed and was ruled in its favour in 2019.

CAPEX CASH FLOW NET DEBT

[figures excluding IFRS16, unless other stated]

In 2019, the Group's capex programme (excluding usage rights acquired under IFRS16) stood at €678 mn, of which 32% was allocated to expansion and the remainder to refurbishment projects and the maintenance of store and warehouse operations.

Biedronka implemented an investment programme of €388 mn, which included the opening of 128 new stores (33 of which in a smaller format), 252 refurbishments and the normal maintenance of operations.

The banner ended the year with a network of 3,002 locations, c.50% of which opened or were refurbished in the past five years.

Hebe added 43 net locations to its network (46 openings), which had 273 stores at the end of 2019.

Pingo Doce invested €143 mn in the opening of nine new stores, of which four were in the Pingo Doce & Go convenience format. It also continued to implement its refurbishment programme, which included a total of 44 stores, of which 30 underwent comprehensive refurbishing.

Recheio invested a total of €25 mn, which included the refurbishing of the Aveiro store.

With regard to Agribusiness, investments in Portugal were made in an amount of c.€7 mn in expanding the capacity of one of the livestock units and in improvement works at the farm that supplies the dairy factory.

In Colombia, Ara invested €98 mn, opening 85 stores and almost completing the construction of two Distribution Centres that are already integrated in the Company's logistics operation.

Cash flow generated in the year amounted to €494 mn, up €359 mn compared to that generated in 2018. This remarkable delivery was due to a growth of 9.2% in funds generated from operations, a more favourable seasonal performance of working capital and higher capex payables resulting from the significant investment made in the last months of the year.

Net cash position, excluding capitalised operating leases, was at €192 mn.

DIVIDEND PROPOSAL

Bearing in mind that the consolidated net earnings for 2019 are impacted by the effects resulting from the adoption of the IFRS16 accounting standard, which do not represent cash disbursements, the Board of Directors will propose, at the Annual General Shareholder's Meeting, the distribution of 216.8 million euros in dividends, corresponding to the application of the defined policy adjusted for the accounting effects of the adoption of the referred standard.

This proposal corresponds to a gross dividend of 0.345 euros per share, excluding the 859,000 own shares in the portfolio, representing a pay-out of c.50% of consolidated net earnings pre-IFRS16 effects.

With the proposed dividend distribution, the Group maintains full flexibility to accelerate its expansion plans and to take advantage of any potential non-organic growth opportunities while keeping a low level of net debt exposure.
