1. Financial Analysis

Growth, improved operating efficiency, lower net debt and extended debt maturity. This is in a nutshell the financial performance achieved by Mota-Engil during the first nine months of the year and in the third quarter in particular.

Net consolidated income reached €€58 million in the first nine months of the year (2011: €€46.1 million), of which €25 million attributable to the Group (2011: €22 million).

As previously announced, the Group changed its organizational structure that is now organized by geographies as opposed to the previous one based on business areas. As a result, from January 2012 onwards, the Group is organized in the following four main business areas: Portugal, Africa, Latin America and Central Europe. It is in accordance with this structure that the current report is structured.

Turnover in the third quarter of the year reached €€675 million, allowing for an 8.4% increase to €€1,687 million in the first nine months of 2012 (2011: €1,556 million). This evolution was reached on the back of the performance of foreign markets where growth was a whopping 31% and environment & services. The Group's activity in foreign markets represented 62% of the total, in the first nine months of 2012 (2011: 51%).

Together with the evolution of the weight of foreign markets activities in total turnover, the order backlog in foreign markets has been growing, namely in Latin America.

The growing importance of foreign markets shows how successful the internationalization strategy that the Group has been embracing in the last years has been, together with the new corporate governance model, this strategy was reinforced with the recent update of the Group's Strategic Business Plan: Ambition 2.0.

As far as the EBITDA is concerned, the growth recorded in the first nine months of 2012, €€17.6 million as compared to the same period of the previous year, was achieved mainly on the back of the African market (EBITDA grew €€15.9 million). It is also worth mentioning the outstanding operating performance of the domestic market (€€4.9 million growth at the EBITDA level). Whereas in the African market the contribution to such a performance was fairly balanced between the several countries, in Portugal the performance was mainly achieved on the back of the water sewage and distribution and logistics and maintenance segments that more than offset the drop in both construction and waste collection and treatment segments.

The consolidated EBITDA margin reached 12.9% in the first nine months of 2012, as compared to 12.8% in the first nine months of the previous year. As previously stated, not only did turnover increase but the operating efficiency was also improved as a result of sharing across the board (businesses – diversification – markets – internationalization) the knowhow, the best practices and the quality obtained in more mature markets.

Up to September 2012, net capital expenditure reached €€151 million (2011: €98 million), being worth mentioning the capital expenditure in foreign markets for €90 million (2011: €34 million) and in environment & services businesses in Portugal, for €45 million (includes mainly maintenance and growth capex in the water sewage and distribution concessions, namely in Indaqua Matosinhos, Vila do Conde and Feira and in the seaport concessions of Leixões – TCL – and Ferrol – FCT).

When analyzing the capital expenditure by its nature, we figure out that maintenance capex reached €40 million whereas growth capex was of approximately €102 million and financial investments were of approximately €9 million.

As of September 30th, 2012, despite the higher capital expenditure as compared to previous years, net debt was significantly below that of September 30th, 2011 (less €150 million or 13%) and was also lower than that of 2011 FY. As had already been the case in the previous quarter, the typical seasonality of the debt pattern was successfully countered.

Corporate net debt (with recourse) reached €862 million (December 2011: €883 million). Out of this figure, approximately €544 million were allocated to the Group's operating activity and the remaining (€317 million) to investments in affiliated companies that do not contribute to EBITDA and to non-strategic assets. As of September 2012, net non-recourse debt was of approximately €131 million (December 2011: €121 million).

On the other hand, it is worth mentioning that the Group managed to extend the debt maturity, up to now highly weighed towards short maturities, shifting more than €200 million of short term debt to medium to long term (maturing between 2015 and 2018), therefore reducing the former's weight to less than 1/3 of total debt by the end of the year.

MANAGEMENT REPORT AS OF THE NINE MONTHS OF 2012

Financial expenses by the end of September 2012 reached €68.3 million (2011: €66 million), up approximately 3.4%. This performance may be analyzed as follows: it went up by approximately €10 million due to net interest paid; it went down by of approximately €3 million due to the capital gain obtained in the disposal of the waste management business in Brazil (booked in the previous year); went down by €4.8 million due to foreign exchange fluctuations.

In the first nine months of 2012, gains and losses in affiliated companies (equity consolidated) had a positive contribution of €9.7 million (2011: €3.3 million). For the change of more than €6 million, the main items were the following: Ascendi contributed with approximately €14.8 million, slightly lower than in the same period of 2011 (€15.3 million); Martifer contributed negatively with a loss of €13.3 million (2011: €13.1 million); the balance came from better results from affiliated companies in Africa.

As a result of the operating and financial performances, pre-tax income rose 31% to €78 million (2011: €60 million) and consolidated net income increased by 25.9% to €58 million (2011: €46.1 million), of which €25 million attributable to the Group (2011: €22 million).

The order book as of the end of September was of approximately €3.3 billion, €2.4 billion of which in foreign markets, more than 73% of the total figure. As usual, the order book, besides the construction contracts, only includes contracts in urban solid waste and maintenance segments. The Group does not include in the

2. Business areas analysis

Portugal

Turnover in Portugal reached €€676 million in the first nine months of 2012 (2011: €764 million), less 11.6% as compared to the same period of 2011. This evolution was mainly due to the unfavorable evolution of both the construction segment (-20.8%) and urban solid waste segment (-5.7%). The remaining businesses within environment & services division, despite reporting higher turnover, did not offset the aforementioned negative impacts. Globally, the environment & services businesses reported a turnover of €300 million (2011: €281 million).

As far as the operating performance is concerned, EBITDA rose 5.8% to €89.9 million (2011: €84.9 million) and the margin improved to 13.3% (2011: 11.1%).

These results were obtained because, on one hand, the weight of the environment & services businesses on total EBITDA increased and, on the other hand, because the EBITDA margin of the construction business in Portugal improved, despite lower turnover, allowing EBITDA to remain roughly flat (2012: €34 million; 2011: €35 million).

MANAGEMENT REPORT AS OF THE NINE MONTHS OF 2012

As previously stated, the urban waste segment had a lower turnover in Portugal (2012: €62.7 million; 2011: €66.5 million) and also a lower EBITDA (2012: €14.3 million; 2011: €15.5 million).

Unlike the urban waste segment, the turnover of the logistics segment, that remains the largest within environment & services, grew 20% year on year (€140.7 million in 2012 as compared to €117.2 million in 2011) and 17% at the EBITDA level (€25.9 million in 2012, as compared to €22.1 million in 2011). This excellent performance was due to higher container movements in the domestic seaports but also to the improvement of the operating efficiency following the measures that have been taken in order to manage the several concessions in an integrated way. Notwithstanding, the recent instability witnessed in some of the main ports is starting to affect the operation.

Turnover of the water sewage & distribution segment increased by 3.8% in the first nine months of the year and EBITDA soared 16.6%. This result, as had been previously the case, was due to the booking of revenues related to the investment undertaken in the water networks in some concessions. Excluding this effect, revenues from Indaqua's main activity (the Group's vehicle for this segment) did not change materially.

Turnover in the segment of energy and facility management grew slightly and its EBITDA margin improved markedly to 8.8%.

Africa

As had been previously reported and referred in the Strategic Plan update, Ambition 2.0, the Group's presence in emerging markets and specifically in Africa is nowadays significant being worth mentioning that revenues in Africa and Latin America (€731 million) already exceeds that obtained in Portugal (€676 million). The Group's presence in Africa includes Angola, Mozambique, Malawi, São Tomé and Príncipe and Cape Verde that in total represent 31% of Mota-Engil's activity (2011: 25%). But the aim to enlarge this presence to other countries led us to analyze several projects in Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania and Uganda, among other countries.

From January to September 2012, turnover in Africa reached €517 million, up 34.1% as compared to the same period of last year (€386 million). Despite a slight drop of the EBITDA margin in the region, from 21.8% in the first nine months of 2011 to 19.3% in the same period of 2012, EBITDA increased to €100 million (2011: €84.1 million). It is also important to highlight the fact that revenues from the urban waste and cleaning segment in Angola attained €20.5 million (2011: €19.2 million) and EBITDA was of €8.7 million (2011: €9.6 million).

The order backlog in Africa was of approximately €1.4 billion in September 2012 (December 2011: €1,687 million), allowing for a very high expectation in terms of future growth in this market.

Central Europe

In Central Europe, Mota-Engil Group has been increasingly concentrating its activity in Poland.

The Group enjoys a strong backlog in this market that comprises large road construction contracts and several mid-sized contracts in different business segments and in different regions in the country, in excess of €350 million. In the first nine months of 2012, turnover in Central Europe was of €314 million, up approximately 22% as compared to the same period of the previous year (€257 million).

In the third quarter of the year the construction market environment further deteriorated in Poland, leading to a significant erosion of the EBITDA margin. Notwithstanding, the Group has been able to maintain the same quality level and complied with timings in all the works it is performing in that country which has proven to be a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

Furthermore, the shutdown of the operations in Romania had approximately a €5 million negative impact on EBITDA.

Latin America

In Latin America, the area where revenues grew faster up to September, Mota-Engil's activity is currently focused in Peru and Mexico. During the third quarter, Mota-Engil started a construction activity in Brazil and continued to analyze several projects in Colombia.

In the first nine months of 2012, turnover reached €214 million in the geography, a robust 36.7% increase as compared to the same period of the previous year (€156 million). When excluding the contribution from Geovision (a company involved in solid waste management in Brazil that was disposed of and therefore deconsolidated by the end of 2011) to turnover and EBITDA, growth rates are even more impressive: 97% at the turnover level and 37% at the EBITDA level.

As far as the operating profitability is concerned, the EBITDA margin remained at about 13%, although the effort undertaken to diversify within the geography in terms of type of works might lead to some margin erosion, going forward although it should allow to lower the risks stemming from an excessive concentration on a specific type of clients.

The order backlog rose to approximately €614 million at the end of the quarter.

Mota-Engil's shares rose 19.4% in the third quarter of the year in a context still marked by the Euro zone crisis, where there were raising concerns about Greece exiting the Euro zone and about the imminence of Spain having to resort to a rescue program. In this environment, the PSI 20, the main Portuguese stock market index, rose by a modest 1.9% in the third quarter of the year. The number of Mota-Engil shares traded in the aforementioned period, exceeded €8.5 million, a 28% drop as compared to the same period of the previous year.

The General Shareholders Meeting as of April 17th, 2012 approved, in accordance with the Board of Directors proposal, to pay a dividend of 11 euro cents per share, paid in May 17th, 2012.
