FIRST QUARTER OF 2012 CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

(Non audited accounts) (Translated from the Portuguese original)

MANAGEMENT REPORT

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Turnover of 189.9 million euros, decreasing 5.2%, mainly pressured by the reduction in the domestic construction activity;
  • 9.9 million euros of EBITDA and 4.1 million euros of EBIT, impacted by the compensation associated with the termination of labour contracts (5.1 million euros) and by the change of the accounting model of the Beira Interior motorway concession – Scutvias (8.8 million euros);
  • Financial results of -14.8 million euros, in line with the -14.3 million euros of the comparable period of the previous year;
  • Consolidated net income attributable to the Group in the 1st quarter of 2012 of -8.2 million euros.

ACTIVITY ANALYSIS

Activity in the 1st quarter of 2012 occurred in a domestic and international macroeconomic context not very distinct from the one described in 2011's report and accounts, recently released, and that is characterised by a series of variables with an unfavourable impact in the economic activity, in general, and to the construction sector, in particular. In this context, we highlight the continued decrease of the public and private investment, with reflections, namely in the lack of demand in the domestic construction market and in the financing sources scarcity, with the corresponding aggravation of the conditions for accessing financing.

The role played by the international markets is, therefore, of key importance within the Group's activity, while the domestic market continues to reflect a decreasing trend, not totally compensated, only mitigated, by the significant weight on the ongoing construction of Transmontana motorway.

As key factors of the activity of the Group during the 1st quarter, and with a determinant impact on indicators, we highlight two facts:

(i) In accordance with the strategy plan being implemented in terms of cost rationalisation and adaptation of the structures to the current and expected demand of the markets, the Group has been putting into practise a human resources reduction programme, that implied during the quarter, the recognition of staffs costs, of a non recurrent nature, of 5.1 million euros, essentially from the construction business area;

(ii) With the introduction of the mechanism to collect tolls from the users adopted by the Portuguese State in the sections and sub sections of the Beira Interior motorway concession, and although the negotiations processes related with the necessary changes to the concession contracts are not still totally completed, the accounting method of the concessionaire Scutvias – a jointly controlled company, consolidated by the proportional method – changed, in accordance with the IFRIC 12, now being accounted in accordance with the financial asset model instead of the intangible asset model. This change has significant effect in several consolidated indicators, negatively impacting the operational indicators (turnover, EBITDA and EBIT), but having a positive impact on the financial results, although the net effect, at the net income level, is negative.

These effects are detailed in the following table:

SCUTVIAS
(million euros) 1Q 2012 F 1Q 2012 I
Turnover 2.5 11.2 -8.8
EBITDA 0.5 9.3 -8.8
EBIT 0.5 6.4 -6.0
Financial results 0.6 -3.3 3.8
Earnings Before Taxes 1.0 3.2 -2.1
Net income 0.7 2.3 -1.6

TURNOVER

Turnover in the 1st quarter of 2012 reached 189.9 million euros versus 200.4 million euros in the same period of last year, a 5.2% decrease. If the accounting method of the Beira Interior concession continued to be the intangible asset model, the turnover decline would be insignificant (-0.8%). This evolution is determined by, in terms of business areas, the construction area reduction (-5.7%) and, in what concerns geographical markets, by the domestic market decline (- 19.8%). In fact, in the intersection between the construction business area and the domestic market, there was a 16.4 million euros reduction (23.3 million euros in 1st quarter of 2012 versus 39.7 million one year ago), which, by itself, almost explains the decline on the total turnover.

Other countries 1.9 1.0% 3.7 1.9% -49.3%
Total 189.9 100.0 200.4 100.0 -5.2%

The reduction in the domestic market is influenced, in the concession segment, by the already mentioned effect of Scutvias, and if this participated company kept its accounting method, the turnover fall in Portugal would be -7.5%.

Globally, the international markets grew 2.8%, with the United States market registering an expressive growth, but the remaining markets decreasing their level of activity.

PROFITABILITY: EBITDA/EBIT

EBITDA in the 1st quarter of 2012 amounted to 9.9 million euros, a figure substantially below the 24.7 million euros of the 1st quarter of 2011 (-14.8 million euros). Besides the staff costs related with the labour contracts terminations that happened during the 1st quarter of 2012 (-5.1 million euros), also the Scutvias effect penalised this quarter's indicators (-8.8 million euros). Excluding these two effects, in a homogeneous comparable basis, the EBITDA reduction would amount to 0.9 million euros and the margin would have reached 12.0% of the turnover.

Naturally, the EBIT was also impacted by the factors mentioned above.

Profitability by Business Area

FINANCIAL RESULTS

The consolidated financial results amounted, in this first quarter of the year, to -14.8 million euros, an order of magnitude close to the observed one year before (-14.3 million).

However, to comprehend this evolution, two opposed effects most be considered:

(i) An increase in the effective financing cost, associated with the aggravation of the general conditions of access to the financial markets;

(ii) A positive effect of 4.2 million euros from the change of the accounting method of Scutvias (-3.6 million euros in the 1st quarter of 2011 and +0.6 million euros in the 1st quarter of 2012).

NET INCOME

Net income attributable to the Group, in the first quarter of the year, reached -8.2 million euros versus 1.6 million euros in the same period of 2011, penalised by the already mentioned facts arising from the adverse context and by those that resulted from the change in the accounting criteria of Scutvias (-1.6 million euros) and with the recognition of non recurrent staff costs (-3.9 million euros impact at the net income level, whose effects are expected to be diluted and partially recovered by the savings attained during the year).

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL POSITION (BALANCE SHEET)

In the consolidated financial position statement during the quarter, there was an increase in the non current assets amounting to 35.4 million euros, essentially due to the development of the concessions projects (Transmontana motorway and Estradas do Zambeze). Besides this net increase – in accounts receivable – there was a transfer effect related with the Beira Interior concessions (Scutvias), also reinforcing the accounts receivable and, at the same time, reducing the intangible assets from 255.4 million euros as of December 31, 2011 to 57.2 million euros by the end of March 2012. In the current assets, the most relevant change was the trade customers' favourable behaviour, which declined 36.3 million euros, showing some credit recovery in Angola.

At the liabilities side, there was an increase in the current liabilities of 26.9 million euros, while non current liabilities only rose 9.3 million euros. Shareholders's equity suffered the impact of the net income of the period (-8.2 million euros), as well as the impact from the variation in the derivatives fair value (-2.4 million euros), reducing its global value to 104.6 million euros.

NET DEBT

Remunerated net debt amounted to 874.7 million euros by the end of March 2012, comparing with 863.0 million euros by the end of 2011 (+1.4%).

Net debt evolution

(million euros) Mar 2012 Dec 2011
Total net debt 874.7 863.0
Recourse 485.6 463.2
Non recourse 389.1 399.8

ORDER BOOK

In the order book we highlight the impact from the write-off the project for the construction of the high speed railway, Poceirão-Caia stretch, from the line between Lisbon and Madrid, as a consequence of the refusal of the concession contract by the audit court, known on March 21, which originated a substantial reduction of the order book in the domestic market.

In Angola, we highlight the adjudication of the design and construction of the permanent residential housing development for Angola LNG employees (phase I) in Soyo, Angola, a work that will be executed in consortium with MSF, having Soares da Costa a 50% participation. This work will be executed in 36 months, and is worth a total of 252 million dollars (189 million euros).

In Brazil, it was adjudicated the execution of line 3 of the cement plant of Cezarina, in consortium with Gutierrez Engenharia, adding 10.4 million euros. to the Group's order book in that market.

In the United States, we highlight the adjudication to Prince of another road work – SR93 I-275 – by the FDOT (Florida Department of Transportation,) in an amount corresponding to 22.3 million euros.

In the international market, we most refer the adjudication to Sociedade de Construções Soares da Costa, SA of a wrok in the Sultanate of Oman, which includes the project's design and construction works of a road infrastructure, including several sections and five interchanges bridges, in the zone between the Muscat international airport and Muscat express road. The work will be jointly executed with a local construction company, having Sociedade de Construções Soares da Costa, SA a 70% participation. This work, worth 48 million euros, will be executed in 654 days, represents the expansion of the company's construction activity to a project in a new market.

On the other hand, in Romania, was adjudicated to the Group a project named "Tecuci Bypass", a public work in the road segment, adjudicated by the CNADNR (Companiei Nationale de Autostrazi si Drumuri Nationale din Romania, the Romanian road authority), with a 18-month execution deadline, being worth 11.2 million euros.

In summary, the order book registered the following evolution:

Order book

Mar 2012 % Dec 2011 %
1.234.2 100.0% 1.404.6 100.0% -12.1%
523.1 42.4% 467 33.3% 12.0%
234.3 19.0% 482.6 34.4% -51.4%
188.7 15.3% 201.7 14.4% -6.4%
116.5 9.4% 131.6 9.4% -11.4%
42.0 2.8% 43.4 3.1% -3.1%
12.3 1.0% 5.4 0.4% 129.7%
11.8 1.0% - 0.0% -
105.4 8.5% 73 5.2% 44.5%

Not taking into consideration the effect of the cancellation of the high speed railway project, the order book total amount rose 39 million euros, i.e., +3.3%.

RELEVANT FACTS OCURRING AFTER THE 1ST QUARTER

As communicated as Material Information on May 4, 2012, and in the context of the provisional suspension of the process related with fiscal/ tax facts related with the years 2001 to 2005, the company assumed the responsibility to regularize 8.7 million euros, which will affect, in the 2nd quarter results, the company's shareholders' equity.

STOCK PRICE EVOLUTION

Soares da Costa strock price registered in the 1st quarter of 2012 a negative evolution, decreasing 22%, while the main index's evolution (PSI20) stood almost unchanged compared with year-end 2011. The stock closed the quarter at 0.29 euros per share (0.37 euros by the end of 2011). This negative evolution reflect, on one hand, the materialisation of very negative expectations for the domestic construction market and, on the other hand, the realization of gains after the significant price rise that happened by the end of 2011 (the stock price rose 16% in December).

In spite of the market's liquidity level, in general, and of the Soares da Costa stock, in particular, remaining very reduced compared with their average, the value traded on average in each trading session by Soares da Costa stock improved circa 8% compared with the previous quarter, in line with the liquidity improvement achieved by the PSI 20 index members (+7%). Therefore, the number of Soares da Costa's shares traded by trading session reached 51.9 thousand shares versus 47.9 thousand shares in the 4th quarter of 2011 (although, still, worse than the full-year 2011 average of 82.9 thousand shares).

The balance recorded as "Goodwill" on the date of March 31, 2012 for the following acquisitions that occurred in previous years:

  • a. Acquisition, by the end of 2010, of 57.26% of the share capital of the subsidiary Energia Própria, SA, originating the accounting of goodwill in the amount of 5,299,282 euros, provisional value, since the Group was still in the process of determining the fair value of assets and liabilities of the company. The goodwill recorded in 2011, suffered a decrease of 259,640 euros, updating the value to 5,039,641 euros;
  • b. Acquisition, in 2008, of the subsidiary Contacto Sociedade de Construção, S.A., which originated goodwill of 44,134,341 euros. During the first half of 2010 there was an increase in this value, amounting to 88,200 euros, according to the conditions of the contract for the purchase of that company;
  • c. acquisition, in 2008, 13.33% of the share capital of associated company Autoestradas da Beira interior, S.A., and which resulted in a total effective participation of 33.33% and generated a goodwill amounting to 28,128,844 euros ;
  • d. Acquisition in the second half of 2007, 75% of the capital of the subsidiary Hidroequador Santomense Exploração de Centrais Hidroeléctricas, Lda. which resulted in a goodwill of 765,846 euros, registered in 2008 but calculated with reference to the date 31 December 2007, as in 2007 the Group was still in the process of determining the fair value of assets and liabilities of that company;
  • e. Acquisition of subsidiary Prince Contracting, LLC that originated a goodwill amounting to 8,739,491 euros.

The "Other intangible assets" balance concerns mainly to Public Service Concession Agreements (IFRIC12).

The concessionaire Scutvias, SA, in agreement with the IFRIC12, changed the accounting of the concessions of Beira Interior, abandoning the model of intangible assets and now using the financial asset model. This change is caused by the introduction of tolls paid by the users adopted by the State in sections and subsections that are part of the Beira Interior concession, although the negotiation processes related with the necessary amendments to the concession contract are not yet fully completed. The amount recorded in the "Transfers" item is totally related with this amendment.

During the first quarter of 2012 were capitalized financial charges as part of the cost of these assets, valued at 180,919 euros in relation to ongoing projects in the area of hydroelectric concessions.

As of March 31, 2012 there are no contractual commitments to acquire intangible fixed assets and no research and development expenses were registered in the period.

The amount recorded in the "Adjustments" under the heading "Other intangible assets" refers to the accounting model for financial asset of the conceiiosn of Beira Interior, Scutvias – Autoestrada da Beira Interior, SA.

In late 2011, the Group, in accordance with IAS 36, impairment testing the goodwill relating to acquisitions of Contacto, through evaluation by an independent body, Prince, based on an independent study, and Energia Própria, Scutvias and Hidroequador Santomense, based on evaluations conducted internally.

Prince

The methodology used was the discounted cash flow (DCF - "Discounted Cash Flows"). The reference value was calculated assuming the continuity of the company and the maintenance of the current organization.

For this purpose we estimated the activity of the company until 2017 and assumed that it will enter a mature stage of business from this year (thus estimating perpetuity according to the Gordon model).

The operating free cash flows have been updated by an annual rate of discount of 10.08% which reflects the weighted average cost of capital (WACC):

(a) Cost of debt capital: 3.71%

(b) Income tax: 35%

(c) Risk-free interest rate: 2%

(d) Risk premium to the market value of 5%

(e) Beta of assets of 1.56

(f) Leveraged Beta = Hamada formula;

(g) Capital structure target 75%Prince

Energia Própria

The methodology used was the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF - "Discounted Cash Flows"). The reference value was calculated assuming the continuity of the company, the inexistence of future synergies and the maintenance of the current organization.

The estimates were produced assuming a nominal growth rate equivalent to inflation rate of 2%.

The explicit projection period was ten years, i.e. 2012 to 2021. It was considered a residual value that corresponds to the overall value that we consider the stabilization of its profitability, i.e., in this case, after 2021, an amount determined as the current value of a perpetual and was assumed a growth rate long-term cash flows equal to the inflation rate assumed.

The operating free cash flows have been updated by an annual rate of discount of 11.95% which reflects the weighted average cost of capital (WACC):

(a) Cost of debt capital: 7%

(b) Income tax: 26.5%

(c) Risk-free interest rate: 7.45%

(d) Premium market risk value of 5.3%

(e) Beta of assets of 1.14

(f) Leveraged Beta = Hamada formula;

(g) Capital structure target 60%

Contacto

The DCF – Discounted Cash Flows method was used.

The reference value was calculated assuming the continuity of the company, the absence of future synergies and maintaining the current organisation structure.

Estimates are at nominal rates, with a growth rate of 2% p.a., equivalent to inflation.

The explicit estimate period was five year, from 2012 to 2016. A residual rate considering a steady state profitability level was used, meaning that after 2015, it was considered the present value of a perpetuity that assumed a long-term growth rate from the cash flow equal to the rate of inflation.

Free operating cash flows were discounted at an annual discount rate of 11.7%, reflecting weighted average cost of capital (WACC):

(a) Cost of debt: 5.5%

(b) Corporate tax rate: 26.5%

(c) Risk free interest rate, Government bond OT 10-year yield: 3. 25%

(d) Market risk premium = 9.13%;

(e) Beta assets = 1.04;

(f) Leveraged Beta = Hamada formula;

(g) Target D/E structure = 19.2%

Scutvias

The DCF – Discounted Cash Flows method was used, in the shareholder's perspective (Free Cash-Flow to Equity).

The reference value was calculated assuming the continuity of the company, the absence of future synergies and maintaining the current organisation structure.

Estimates were based on the financial prospects of the business plan which takes into account the conditions of the respective concession contract.

The discount rate of 10.0% was used based on the following parameters:

(a) Risk-free interest rate 6.10%

(b) Market risk premium: 5%

(c) Levered beta equity: 0.76

Hidroequador Santomense

Also with reference to Hidroequador Santomense, an internal impairment test has been ran

The assessment methodology used has been Cash-Flow to Equity (shareholder perspective) according to which the company's value is obtained through the update of the cash flows expected by the shareholder, i.e. dividends payment and return of capital such as shareholders advances and loans as well as inherent interest. In the case at hand, the concessions the end of the concessions is known and being those structured in a project finance regime, this has been the method usually used by the market.

The calculation of the financial projections has been based on financial model and resulting financial statements. The free cash flows risk is evaluated through the usage of a discount rate used to update those flows at the moment of the assessment. In order to obtain the discount rate, a risk-free interest rate, a market-risk premium and a country-risk premium have been used. In order to estimate the net cash flow generated, given that the concessions' end is predetermined, financial projections over the concession period have been taken into account.

After running impairment tests, it was concluded that there is no need to make any adjustments to the value obtained.
