Consolidated Financial Statements

1st Half year 2011

INTRODUCTION

Sonae Sierra presented a Total Net Profit of € 13.2 million at the end of the first half of 2011, which compare with a Net Profit of € 648 thousand in the homologous period of 2010.

The positive variation of the Net Profit was leveraged by a 1% increase of the Direct Net Profit and a 44% improvement of the Indirect Net Profit, consequence of the resilience and increased operational efficiency of our assets, which minimized the effects of the negative behaviour of the yields in Portugal and Greece.

The NAV of Sonae Sierra, as of June 2011, was €1.22 billion and this corresponds a €37.59 per share.

PROSPECTS

Despite the economic conditions in Europe, which have been particularly challenging since 2008, our response to the situation and management of matters we can control has produced excellent results over the last months.

Our company is prudently geared, with a loan to value ratio of below 50% and solid financing agreements spread over a reasonable period of time.

As a result, we remain on course for continuing growth and ready to face the future with confidence.

We know we have the capacity to ensure we remain one of the world's leading shopping centre specialists.

OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

A new project in Germany and other three under construction

Sonae Sierra's growth and expansion strategy continues, although the Company has adjusted its development timings to the evolution of the financial and retail markets.

During the first half of 2011, Sonae Sierra has concluded a joint venture with MAB Development for the development of an innovative shopping centre project in Solingen, region North Rhine-Westphalia - Germany, and to this end purchased the former Karstadtbuilding from the property seller HLG/Movesta. The project with a total GLA of 28,000 m², which construction has started this summer, represents an investment of approximately €120 million and the opening is scheduled to end 2013/beginning 2014.

At the end of June 2011, the Company has four Shopping Centres under construction, representing a total investment of about €400 million: Solingen Shopping in Germany, Le Terrazze in Italy, and Uberlândia Shopping and Boulevard Londrina, both in Brazil. Seven other projects are in different stages of development in Portugal, Italy, Germany, Greece, Romania and Brazil.

In Italy, Le Terrazze is under construction, with a total GLA of 38,500 m² and an investment of more than €125 million. It is scheduled to be inaugurated in the first quarter of 2012.

Capital Recycling

Under the capital recycling strategy adopted by the Company, with the purpose of ensuring its sustainable growth, Sonae Sierra had successfully concluded the IPO of Sonae Sierra Brasil and the sale of two shopping centres in Spain – Plaza Éboli and El Rosal – to Doughty Hanson & Co Real Estate, with Sonae Sierra keeping their respective property management.

When the economic climate improves, we will continue to implement further European asset sales, so that we can fulfil our objectives in the new markets we believe will offer the potential growth and likely returns we seek

As part of our ongoing policy of capitalising on our assets, we have made considerable progress in the marketing of our expertise as developers of shopping centre projects and our property and asset management skills. Not only does this activity contribute to our overall income stream, it also improves our chances of breaking into new markets by enhancing our presence in territories where we currently have no operating shopping centres.

New property management and leasing activities

Sonae Sierra reinforced and increased the service provision to third parties, with the signing of two service contracts for the leasing of Sun Plaza and Vivantis Mall shopping centres, in Romania.

In Spain, Sonae Sierra strengthened its presence with the signing of a contract for leasing Carcaixent Retail Park.

In Italy, the company took over the property management and leasing of shopping centre Le Isole located in Piemonte.

Entry in Morocco

In March 2011, Sonae Sierra entered the Moroccan market, with the provision of services in the shopping centre sector, including the development and management of shopping centres.

The Company's first contract in this market was signed with the Moroccan companies Marjane (ONA Group) and Foncière Chellah (CDG Group - Caisse de Dépôt et de Gestion), for the provision of development services for a shopping centre with a total Gross Lettable Area (GLA) of 40,700 m² and 130 shops, which is scheduled to open to the public at the end of 2013. Located between the Hassan II Mosque and the Casablanca marina, this centre is a part of the Casablanca Marina project, which integrates housing, leisure and business.

Marjane is the largest hypermarket and supermarket chain operating in Morocco and Foncière Chellah is a real estate investment fund present in the real estate lease segment, fully owned by the CDG Group, one of Morocco's main financial institutions.

Sales and occupancy levels sustained

The tenant sales decreased by 4.4% on a like for like basis

The Occupancy Rate of the portfolio remained high and stable, recording a value of 96.3% at the end of June 2011 in Europe.

National and International recognition

In the first six months of the year Sonae Sierra was distinguished with several awards – national and international.

In the National Real Estate Awards 2011 Sonae Sierra was distinguished with three awards: the "Real Estate Oscar" in the retail developments category for LeiriaShopping and the "Special Magazine Award" for the refurbishment project of Centro Colombo. Additionally, Leiriashopping also received the Eurohypo Award, attributed directly by Eurohypo Bank, which is evidence of the project's unquestionable quality.

The "Real Estate Oscar" in the Retail category was the third earned by Sonae Sierra, after RioSul Shopping (in 2007) and 8ª Avenida (in 2008) were distinguished with the same award as the best shopping centre of the year.

Sonae Sierra was also distinguished at the "StrategicRISK European Risk Management Awards", an initiative of prestigious British magazine "Strategic Risk", which aims at rewarding the best and most innovative actions in the risk management area. This award, in the "Most Innovative Use of IT or other Technology" category, distinguishes Sonae Sierra's bet on the perfecting of the inspections system, employing a new technological platform

that enables the control and management of Safety & Health risks and environmental impacts in its Shopping Centres.

On this year edition of the "ICSC European Shopping Centre Awards" Loop5, in Weiterstadt (Germany), received a commendation in the category "New Developments: Large" has recognition of the high quality of this 56,500m2 GLA development with 177 shops and 3000 free parking spaces. The ICSC Awards are considered the most prestigious awards in the shopping centre sector in Europe. The jury was composed of highly-renowned experts of the shopping centre business.

Good performance in Brazil

In Brazil, two shopping centres are under construction:

  • Uberlândia Shopping, scheduled to be inaugurated in the first quarter 2012 will have a GLA of 43,600 m² and represents an investment of €62 million and

FINANCIAL POSITION AND RESULTS

Sonae Sierra consolidated accounts

Profit & Loss accounts

Sonae Sierra Consolidated Net Profit in the first half of 2011 was of €13.2 million compared with a Consolidated Net Profit of €648 thousand in the same period of last year.

The Company's Direct Net Profit reached €28.8 million, which compare with €28.5 million in 2010, an increase of 1% due mainly to lower interest expenses has consequence of lower bank debt due to the sale of El Rosal and Plaza Éboli in 2011 and Alexa and Mediterranean Cosmos in 2010.

The Direct Income from Investments decreased by 6% (from €109.7 million in the first half 2010, to €103.2 million) due to the sale of the two centres in Spain (El Rosal and Plaza Éboli) and the IPO of Sonae Brasil.

EBITDA, however, has decreased only 4% (€55.6 million, compared to €57.9 million in the same period of 2010), reflecting the efficiency gains from the cost containment efforts in all areas of the Company.

In the Indirect Income we draw attention to the decrease in the deferred taxes. In 2010 the deferred taxes included the effect of the changes on the Portuguese Income Tax rate – the introduction of the new "Derrama Estadual" – which had as consequence the calculation of the deferred tax liabilities in the Portuguese portfolio by the new tax rate.

Balance sheet

The Consolidated Balance Sheet continues to show a solid financial position. The total assets amounted to €2.561 million at the end of June 2011; the decrease in Investment Properties is explained by the sale of El Rosal and Plaza Éboli and the IPO of Sonae Sierra Brasil.

The Bank Debt decreased due to the sale of El Rosal and laza Éboli. The Loan-to-value (measured as net indebtedness less cash and equivalents, as a percentage of total properties) decreased from 46.4% to 41.9%, a level below the target of 50%.

SONAE SIERRA, SGPS, S.A. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

as of 30 June 2011

(Translation of notes originally issued in Portuguese – Note 13)

(Amounts stated in thousands of Euro - kEuro)

1 INTRODUCTION

SONAE SIERRA, S.G.P.S., S.A. ("the Company" or "Sonae Sierra"), which has its head office in Lugar do Espido, Via Norte, Apartado 1197, 4471-909 Maia – Portugal, is the parent company of a group of companies ("the Group").

The Group's operations consist of investment, management and development of shopping centres.

The Group operates in Portugal, Brazil, Spain, Greece, Germany, Italy, Romania, Colombia and Netherlands.

These financial statements are presented in Euro because that is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the group operates.

2 PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the International Financial Report Standards ("IFRS") and approved by the European Union, applicable to economic years beginning on 1 January 2011. These correspond to the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC") or by the previous Standing Interpretations Committee ("SIC") and approved by the European Union.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and under the historical cost convention, except for investment properties and financial instruments which are stated at fair value, from the accounting records of the companies included in the consolidation maintained in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the countries of each company adjusted, in the consolidation process, to International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), as approved by the European Union.

The Board of Directors of the Company considers that the accompanying consolidated financial statements and their notes have, under IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, an adequate presentation of the interim consolidated information. For additional information about the accounting policies of the Group and other information, the consolidated financial statements of the Company and their notes for the year 2010 should be consulted.

New accounting standards and their impact in these consolidated financial statements

Until the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, the European Union endorsed the following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions with mandatory application to the economic periods beginning on 1 January 2011:

Effective date
(financial years
beginning
on/after)
IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures (Revised) 01-Jan-11
Amendments to IFRS 1 Limited Exemption from comparative IFRS 7 Disclosures for First Time Adopters 01-Jul-10
Amendment to IAS 32 - Financial Instruments: Presentation - Classification of Rights Issues 01-Feb-10
IFRIC 19 - Extinguishing of Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments 01-Jul-10
Amendment to IFRIC 14 - Prepayments of Minimum Funding Requirements 01-Jan-11

All these standards were first applied by the Group in 2011 and had no impact in the consolidated financial statements.

The following standards and interpretations, with mandatory application in future financial years, were, until the date of approval of these financial statements, endorsed by the European Union:

Effective date
(financial years
beginning
on/after)
Improvements to IFRS (2010)
Several (on /
after 01-Jul-10)

These standards, despite being endorsed by the European Union, were not adopted by the Group in 2011, because their application is not yet mandatory. It is not anticipated that there will be retrospective impacts in the consolidated financial statements of the Group from the adoption of these standards.

The following standards and interpretations were issued by the IASB and they are not yet endorsed by the European Union:

Effective date
(financial years
beginning
on/after)
IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments 01-Jan-13
Amendments to IAS 12 - Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets 01-Jan-12
Amendments to IFRS 1 - Severe Hyperinflaction and Removal of Fixed Dates for Fisrt-time Adopters 01-Jul-11
Amendments to IFRS 7 - Financial Instruments: Disclosures 01-Jul-11
IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements 01-Jan-13
IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements 01-Jan-13
IFRS 12 - Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities 01-Jan-13
IFRS 10 - Fair Value Measurement 01-Jan-13
IAS 27 (Revised 2011)- Separate Financial Statements 01-Jan-13
IAS 28 (Revised 2011)- Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures 01-Jan-13
Amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of C omprehensive Income 01-Jan-12
Amendments to IAS 19 - Post Employment Benefits 01-Jan-13

Regarding the Amendment to IAS 12 – Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets and IFRS 11 – Joint Arrangements, it is estimated a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements, namely derived from the abolition of the proportional method of consolidation regarding the Group's investments in joint ventures. In relation to the remaining standards it is not anticipated any significant impact on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Any of these standards were however adopted by the Group as they were not yet endorsed by the European Union.

The main acquisitions and sales of companies occurred during the first half of 2011 were as follows:

Sale of subsidiaries:

During February and March 2011, the jointly controlled entity Sonae Sierra Brasil SA ("Sonae Sierra Brasil"), a company incorporated under the Brazilian law, carried out an initial public offer of 23,251,043 ordinary shares issued by the Company, all nominative, without par value, free and clear of any liens or charges, at the price of R\$ 20.00 per share, for a total of R\$ 465,020,860.00. After this operation, the jointly controlled entity "Sonae Sierra Brasil," which holds companies headquartered in Brazil, is now held by the Group at 33.32%. This transaction resulted in a loss of kEuro 12,556 recognised in the equity, which includes the transfer to non-controlling interests of the currency conversion reserve in the amount of KEuro -12,243. At this date were also recognised in equity the costs of the public offering (net of taxes) worth KEuro 2,332.

The main acquisitions and sales of companies occurred during the first half of 2010 were as follows:

Sale of subsidiaries:

In February 2010 the joint controlled entity ALEXA Shopping Centre GmbH ("Alexa Shoping"), sold 91% of the financial position in the company ALEXA Asset GmbH & Co, KG ("Alexa KG") (owner of the shopping centre "Alexa"), for the amount of kEuro 105,698 ( kEuro 52.849 to the Group,as Alexa Shopping is a joint controlled entity). Due to the loss of the joint control of Alexa KG, this subsidiary (with reference to 1 January 2010) no longer integrates the consolidated financial statements by the proportional method and is now measured by the equity method, since there is significant influence on it.

In March 2010, Sierra Developments Holdings, BV (100% owned by the Group) sold its 100% of the financial position in the subsidiary Project Sierra 8 B.V. to Sierra Sierra European Retail Real Estate Assets Holdings, BV ("Sierra BV"), (held by the Group at 50.1%) by kEuro 18. Considering that Sierra BV is held by the Group in 50.1%, only 49.9% of the total gain in this sale was recorded by the Group (kEuro 12). Project Sierra 8 B.V. continues to be integrated in the consolidated financial statements by the full consolidation method.

In April 2010, Sierra Investments Holdings, BV (100% owned by the Group) sold 50% of the financial position in the company Project Sierra 6 BV, for the amount of kEuro 1, with a gain on sale of kEuro 1. After the sale Project 6 B.V. was consolidated in the financial statements by the proportional method.

The fair value of each investment property was determined by means of a valuation as of the reporting date made by an independent specialised entity (Cushman & Wakefield).

The valuation of these investment properties was made in accordance with the Practice Statements of the RICS Appraisal and Valuation Manual published by The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors ("Red Book"), located in England.

The methodology used to compute the market value of the investment properties consists in preparing 10 years projections of income and expenses of each shopping centre added to the residual value, corresponding to a projected net income of year 11 and a return market rate ("Exit yield" or "cap rate"). These projections are then discounted to the valuation date using a discount market rate. Projections are intended to reflect the actual best estimate of the valuer regarding future revenues and costs of each shopping. Both the return rate and discount rate are defined in accordance to the local real estate and institutional market conditions, being the reasonability of the market value obtained in accordance to the methodology above referred, tested also in terms of initial return, and obtained with the estimated net income for the 1st year of projections.

In the valuation of investment properties some assumptions, that in accordance with the Red Book are considered to be special, were in addition considered, namely in the case of recently inaugurated shopping centres, in which the possible costs still to be incurred were not considered, as the accompanying financial statements already include a provision for them.

The open market value of the investment properties under development as at the reporting date is calculated by subtracting from the open market value at opening, calculated using the methodology described above, the investment necessary to finish the project and weighted by a risk factor defined by the valuer.

The Market

According to the valuer, whenever uncertainty could have a material effect on the opinion of value, the Red Book requires the valuer to draw attention to this, indicating the cause of uncertainty and the degree to which this is reflected in the valuation reported.

Since September 2008 there were unprecedented events at a global level, such as the failure of several major banks, the effective nationalisation of others. There have been substantial reductions in interest rates across Europe, with the ECB rapidly reducing base rates from 2.50% in December 2008 to 1% since May 2009. Following a relatively strong end to 2009, 2010 experienced a gradual upward movement of the Euribor, and this is expected to continue to rise during 2011. 2010 was characterised by the global banking crisis and the consequent hiatus of the debt markets. The fallout of the crisis in Greece prompted a wider breakdown in confidence relating to sovereign risk. Meanwhile in Portugal, a list of austerity measures have been announced by the new government, to support a bailout program agreed with the European Union and the International Monetary Fund.

A more general economic downturn unfolded throughout the year; the ECB and EU reacted accordingly, applying pressure to member states to control their public spending so as not to compromise potential growth in the future. In response, each EU country adopted budget consolidation policies via fiscal measures. While some of these measures had an immediate result, others will only take impact later this year.

According to the valuer, within the real estate sector, there remains limited clarity on pricing throughout Europe. Signs of increasing activity from both occupiers and investors emerged in the property market in 2010 and have continued active in the first semester of 2011; overly ambitious negotiations have occurred in both investments and leasing dis-cussions. Nevertheless, confidence has certainly improved, and both occupiers and inves-tors sense that for Grade ´A` property, pricing is now around as good as it will get. For secondary stock, however, there is no urgency to invest or occupy property and the gap to prime has increased.

Although some companies are facing financial difficulties, it is not appropriate to conclude all recent market activity represents forced transactions. An imbalance between supply and demand (for example, fewer buyers than sellers) is not always a determinant of a forced transaction. A seller might be under financial pressure to sell, but it is still available to sell at a market price if there is more than one potential buyer in the market and a reasonable amount of time is available for marketing. Similarly, transactions initiated during bankruptcy should not automatically be assumed to be forced.

It has been held that valuers may properly conclude within a range of values. This range is likely to be greater in an illiquid market where inherent uncertainty exists and a greater degree of judgement must therefore be applied.

The valuers strongly recommend that the company keep the valuation of the subject properties under review. The company should also anticipate a longer marketing period than would previously have been expected in the event that any property is offered for sale.

As of 30 June 2011, 31 December 2010 and 30 June 2010 the fair value of the fit out contracts existing in each investment property was as follows:

The fair value of the fit out contracts was determined by means of a valuation as of the reporting date made by an independent specialised entity (Cushman & Wakefield). The methodology used to compute the fair value of the fit out contracts consisted in determining the discounted estimated cash flows of each one of the fit out contracts, using a discounted marked rate, similar to the one used in determining the fair value of the investment property to which each fit out contract relates.

As of 30 June 2011 and 31 December 2010 the following investment properties had been given in guarantee of bank loans:

As of 30 June 2011, 31 December 2010 and 30 June 2010 investment properties in progress can be detailed as follows:

The amounts of kEuro 4,966, kEuro 4,394 and kEuro 10,559 in 30 June 2011, 31 December 2010 and 30 June 2010, respectively, recorded under caption "Impairment for Assets at Risk" are related to the provision made to anticipate losses due to the non development of some of the actual projects, because of the uncertainty of markets.

The Aegean Park investment property in progress corresponds, at the moment, to the value of a site in Athens, Greece. In accordance with the information received, the local Municipal Authorities intention is to classify part of the site as green area, and the Management is being involved in negotiations with the local Municipal Authorities with the objective of determining which will be the final use of that site. The Board of Directors still believes that there will be no losses in the realisation value of the site; therefore no impairment losses have been recognised.

Investment property under development Ioannina, for which the Group recognised, during the year ended 31 December 2010, an impairment loss amounting to KEuro 15,000, corresponds to the value of land and existing facilities, which the Board hopes to develop in a near future, having for that resized the existing project.

Investment properties in progress include borrowing expenses incurred during the construction period. As of 30 June 2011 and 31 December 2010, total borrowing expenses capitalised amounted to kEuro 479 and kEuro 1,328, respectively.

(*) These hedging instruments are a Cap. For the remaining ones, we have contracted Zero C ost C ollars

The fair value of the financial hedging instruments was recorded under Hedging Reserves of the Group (kEuro -13,647 and kEuro -23,172 in 30 June 2011 and 31 December 2010 respectively) and hedging reserves of the non-controlling interests (kEuro -8,002 and kEuro -14,544 in 30 June 2011 and 31 December 2010 respectively).

The interest rate swaps and zero cost collars are stated at their fair value at the financial position statement date, determined by the valuation made by the bank entities with which the derivatives were contracted. The computation of the fair value of these financial instruments was made taking into consideration the actualisation to the statement of financial position sheet date of the future cash-flows relating the difference between the interest rate to be paid by the Company to the bank entity with which the swap or collar was negotiated and the variable interest rate to be received by the Company from the bank entity that granted the loan. In addition, tests to the fair value of those derivative financial instruments were made by the treasury department of the Group, in order to validate the fair value determined by those entities.

The main hedging principles used by the Group when negotiating these hedging financial instruments are as follows:

• Matching between the cash-flows paid and received: there is coincidence between the dates of interest payments of the loans obtained and their date of the derivatives flows with the bank;

  • Matching in the index interest rate used: the reference index interest rates used in the derivatives and in the loan are coincident;
  • In a scenario of increase or decrease in interest rates, the maximum amount of interest payable is perfectly calculated.
