1.1. Activity


Mota-Engil Africa Group's Turnover reached €379 million (1H14: €557 million) in the first half of 2015, down 32% YoY (Year on Year) mainly due to Angola and SADC regions. It is worth mentioning that the decrease in SADC was, mainly related to the completion of the Nacala Logistic Corridor project in Malawi, which was produced for the Brazilian company Vale and was concluded in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Regarding the activity's outlook for 2015, the Group has always considered 2015 as a transition year, taking into consideration that a significant project has come to completion not yet replaced with new recurrent backlog or by another capital project contract and by the continued depressed context of commodity prices.

Interim Report for the six months ended 30 June 2015
Notwithstanding these challenges, the Group expects turnover in 2015 to be slightly below €1 Bn, compared to 2014 following the completion of a significant project.
All comparisons of underlying activity and profitability compared to the first half of 2014 are distorted by this large and successful contract when analysing the underlying progress made during the first half of 2015, in terms of for instance clients' diversification and capture of new clients. As such, if this substantial project was adjusted out for comparison purposes, Turnover would have grown by 8% YoY in the first half of 2015.
The diversification strategy continues to be pursued by the Group, reflected by SADC's weight in Turnover which reached 53% in the first half of 2015, compared to 58% one year ago, when the Nacala project contributed with €207 million and by the increase of new regions turnover which already represent 5% of the total turnover in the first half of 2015 (1H14: 1%).
Angola, traditionally the Group's main market, represented about 43% of the consolidated Turnover in the first six months of 2015, compared to 41% in the same period last year. (1H14: 41%).
1.2. EBITDA


EBITDA in the first half of 2015 decreased 50% YoY to €70 million, with SADC and Angola representing 53% and 44% of the total, respectively.
EBITDA margin reached 18.5%, reflecting not only the conclusion of a significant project, but also the lower profitability achieved so far in the new markets.
Nevertheless, the decrease in EBITDA margin was partially offset by the better profitability in Angola and by the resilient contribution from the SADC region. In fact, if the Nacala project contribution was excluded from the first half 2014 EBITDA in the first half of 2015 would have decreased 4% when compared to the same period last year.

1.3. CAPEX


In the first half of 2015, the net Capex amounted to €41 million (1H14: €36 million), mainly channelled to support the initial activities of the recently announced mining contract awarded by Vale in Mozambique. The maintenance capital expenditure totalled €24 million, representing 60% of the total capex as the Group continued to perform the repair of equipment, previously used which will enable its future usage and higher return.
1.4. Net debt

Dec-13: Pro-forma figures, considering the effects of the demerger of Mota-Engil Engenharia e Construção, S.A into Mota-Engil Engenharia e Construção África, S.A. in December 2013
Total Net Debt, excluding leasing, at the end of June 2015 amounted to approximately €228 million, in line with March 2015, and higher compared to December last year, when it reached €145 million. The net debt including leasing reached €302 million in June 2015.
The average cost of debt was 8.4% down from 8.8% in December 2014.
In June 2015 the average life of debt was 1.97 years.
At the end of June, the net debt/EBITDA, excluding leasing, was 1.2x and the Group had credit lines contracted and available of €31 million leading to a total liquidity position of €175 million.

Interim Report for the six months ended 30 June 2015

Net Financial costs in the first half of 2015 amounted to €3.3 million, down from €23.1 million in the same period last year. This evolution was mainly due to a decrease in both interest bearing expenses and performance and bid bonds related costs. These costs reached c.€18 million in the first half of 2015, compared to c.€30 million in the same period last year. It is worth highlighting the decrease in interest bearing expenses between periods, notwithstanding the increase in gross debt, which is a result of an active financial strategy towards an optimization of the debt structure. In addition, net financial costs in the first half of 2015 were affected by positive foreign exchange gains, which amounted to €7 million, up from €5 million in the first half of 2014.
1.5. Net income



Mota-Engil Africa N.V.
Interim Report for the six months ended 30 June 2015
Net income in the first half of 2015 reached €19 million also impacted by a higher effective tax rate of 33%, compared to 16% in the first half of 2014. It is worth mentioning that in the latter semester part of the activities were granted corporate income tax holiday.
Net income attributable to the Group reached €6 million, less €48 million than in the first six months of 2014, negatively affected by higher minorities related to Mota-Engil Angola.
1.6. Backlog


Dec-13: Pro-forma figures, considering the effects of the demerger of Mota-Engil Engenharia e Construção, S.A into Mota-Engil Engenharia e Construção África, S.A. in December 2013
In June 2015, the backlog amounted to €1.5 billion, compared to €1.4 billion in December last year, representing an increase of 6%. SADC continues to be the biggest contributor to total backlog with a weight of 48%, followed by Angola that represents 41% of the total. The West and East regions already represent 11% of the total, reflecting the Group's strategy to diversify its geographical exposure and revenue streams.
As such, the current level of the backlog and the diversification of the activity into new countries allow the Group to be confident on the sustained growth of its business in the upcoming years and to take part of the continent's future development.
In terms of future opportunities, the Group has a US$ 12 billion pipeline, already excluding the Sundance's contract in Cameroon, and which is mostly exposed to infrastructure, including mining related, and power projects. These segments represent 88% of the total pipeline. Nevertheless, the Group is also focusing in other areas with high potential in the region, such as logistics and Oil & Gas, which are crucial to the development of the continent in the years to come.

2. Business areas analysis
Angola

In Angola the activity is carried out mainly through Mota-Engil Angola, a company which is a partnership between Mota-Engil, with 51% stake and an Angolan consortium led by Sonangol and Atlantic Group that hold the remaining 49%.
The consolidated Turnover of the Group in Angola reached €159 million in the first half of 2015, down 29% YoY from €225 million in the first half of 2014. This evolution reflects a slowdown in activity, following the worsening macro context, heavily affected by the lower oil prices environment.
Despite the slowdown in the activity, the operating profitability showed a significant increase, with EBITDA margin reaching 21% in the first half of 2015, up from 19% in the first half of 2014. The increase in profitability was mainly due to the softer competitive environment as some competitors have been leaving the country.
The backlog in this segment totalled €615 million in June 2015, up from €571 million in December 2014, representing an increase of 8%, which indicates that the market is still robust despite the economy's slowdown in the country. The recently awarded contracts, include road and civil construction works.

Interim Report for the six months ended 30 June 2015
SADC

The business segment SADC includes the Group's activity in Mozambique, Malawi, Zimbabwe, Zambia and South Africa.
In the first half of 2015 the segment's Turnover reached €201 million, down 38% from €322 million in the first half of 2014. This decrease was driven by the end of the works related to the construction of the Nacala project, which had a contribution of €207 million in the same period last year. Excluding the contribution of this project, turnover would have increased by 75%, which is a good indicator of the region's potential, mainly led by Mozambique's good performance, but also by the growth into new markets. In SADC, the Group is currently executing projects exposed to several sectors, namely railway, roads and mining.
In the first half of 2015 the EBITDA reached €49 million, down from €93 million a year ago, due to lower Turnover as referred. Still, the EBITDA margin remained at a robust level of almost 25%, but down from 29% in the first half of 2014.
The backlog amounted to €729 million in June 2015, up from €709 million in December 2014, thus supporting the significant growth perspectives for the segment. Mozambique accounted for 42% of the total backlog in the region. This amount already includes projects in Zambia, Zimbabwe and South Africa that contributed to 46% of the total backlog and whose activity is expected to accelerate and increase throughout this year.
Recently the backlog in this region increased on the back of the award of the following projects:
Malawi: roads and railway infrastructure totalling €109 million;
Mozambique: roads and railway infrastructures, mining exploration related works, and maintenance and emergency works in the Nacala corridor that also spins to Malawi territory, all amounting to €233 million;
South Africa: civil construction, namely a hospital and apartments totalling €69 million.

Interim Report for the six months ended 30 June 2015
West Africa
The primary markets in the Group's West Africa business segment are Cameroon, Cape Verde, Ghana and São Tomé and Príncipe.
Still in an early phase, the activity in West Africa is limited to the execution of some projects in São Tomé and Príncipe and Cape Verde, which are not significant and that represented a turnover of €7 million in the first half of 2015. Recently, the Group was awarded a contract for the construction of a tourism resort and water infrastructure in São Tomé and Príncipe totalling €13 million.
It is worth highlighting the recent developments regarding the Mbalam-Nabeba iron ore project in Cameroon. In fact in June 2014 the Group signed a MoU with Sundance Resources related to a US$3.5 billion project in Cameroon, to build a port and a rail infrastructure for the Mbalam-Nabeba iron ore project. The Group's role would include the design, construction, testing and commissioning of a 580 kilometer railway and a 35 Mtpa deep water port terminal. The execution of the project was subject to its financing that would be secured by Sundance Resources and that would depend on market conditions. Although the long stop date of the MoU is 31 December 2015 with any extension to this date subject to a writing agreement between the parties, the sharp decline in iron ore price, led Sundance to announce that it would be unable to perform the financial close by the due date. As such, and according to Sundance's announcement to the market it should be noted that:
- A Transition Agreement towards the ownership of the infrastructure was signed with the Government of Cameroon;
- Cameroon Government will appoint the EPC;
- Cameroon Government has already started the process to select a Chinese EPC;
- Sundance expects that the financing will take about 6 to 12 months from the date of the announcement;
- Sundance has a contract with Mota-Engil, but expects that the conditions precedent to the contract will not be met until 31 December 2015, which also means that Sundance does not expect to have any liability on this contract.
It should be noted that the Group has never included this project in its backlog due to the fact that the contract was not financed.
East Africa
The Group has recently began its operations in the East Africa segment, namely with operations in Uganda and Rwanda, while expanding its operations into Kenya and Tanzania. The turnover in this segment is not yet significant and reached €8 million in the first half of 2015, corresponding to works that are being executed mainly in Uganda on the back of the €67 million Kampala Northern Bypass project that was awarded last year in that country.
Recently the Group was awarded a €26 million contract in Rwanda related to expansion works in Kigali's International Airport.
