Message from the CEO, Paulo Azevedo

.

We are very pleased to continue to report significant increases in both turnover and earnings, at the same time that we relentlessly pursue our long term strategy goals of internationalisation and strengthening of our core businesses.

Besides the improvements in financial ratios that we have been achieving for some time, this quarter also shows a very significant decrease in debt in absolute terms compared to 1Q09.

Sadly, we were not able to convince the authorities to eliminate the discrimination of opening hours and had to close our Continente banner stores on Sunday afternoons as from 1 January, creating an unjustifiable and significant loss of jobs. Continente is now the only chain in the top 5 food chains in Portugal forced to close its stores on Sunday afternoons.

Turnover quarterly trend

Turnover breakdown

Sonae MC – food based retail; Sonae SR– specialised retail; Sonae RP – retail property; Sonae Sierra – shopping centres; Sonaecom – telecommunications.

Turnover

  • Sonae turnover increased by 7%, with combined 10% growth in turnover of Sonae MC and Sonae SR.
  • Sonae MC turnover increased by 7%, mainly driven by a strong 3% like-for-like growth (1% in 1Q09), benefiting from: (i) the Easter season impacting the quarter (roughly one week of sales); and (ii) the maintenance of strong volume growth (+8%), offsetting the lower average price per unit (-4%), the latter reflecting prevailing market price deflation (- 4%) and trading down. Further improvements in promotions and a range of marketing activities adapted to consumer demands have all contributed to this performance. By the end of the quarter, own brand products made up 26% of total FMCG sales.
  • Sonae SR reported growth in turnover of 22% and significant 6% growth on a like.-for-like basis, with underlying performance reflecting a positive impact from Easter (roughly one week of sales). Sonae SR Portugal sales were up 12%, driven by: (i) a significant like-for-like sales increase of 6%, reflecting market share gains across all the main businesses; (ii) the good performance of the textile formats, in particular Zippy; and (iii) new space opened over the last 12 months, amounting to 38 thousand m2 (+54 stores). Sonae SR International sales were up by 101%, reflecting: (i) like-for-like sales growth of more than 8%; (ii) the conversion work, of the consumer electronic stores portfolio acquired, for the Worten concept during 1Q09; and (iii) aggressive organic growth in the last 12 months, with the opening of 26 thousand m2(+23 stores).
  • Sonae Sierra turnover increased by 7% reflecting: (i) the contribution from 2 centres opened in 2009 (loop5; Manauara); and (ii) the good performance of the Brazilian assets. These have offset the lower European Portfolio rents collected, on a like-for-like basis (-1%) and lower revenues from the development business and asset management services.
  • Sonaecom turnover was down by 8%; the growth of mobile customer revenues, did not entirely offset the impact of reductions in Mobile Termination Rates and in Product Sales, the later impacted by the deceleration of the e-schools programme.

Recurrent EBITDA quarterly trend

Recurrent EBITDA breakdown

Recurrent EBITDA

  • Sonae recurrent EBITDA increased significantly by 6%, generating a solid margin of 9.2%.
  • Sonae MC improved recurrent EBITDA by 4%, equal to a margin on sales of 3.1%, reflecting continued gains in market share and improvements in internal operating efficiency. This margin was significant given the background of strong competitive pressures and food price deflation in the quarter.
  • Sonae SR recurrent EBITDA was slightly positive, equal to a margin on sales of 0.1%, reflecting the increasing importance of the Spanish operation to total turnover and the positive performance posted in both countries. Sonae SR Portugal continued to increase profitability, with EBITDA up by 12% and a margin of 1.9%, achieved through operational fine tuning of the most recent operations and more exposure to international outsourcing, in particular in the textile formats. Sonae SR International posted a negative EBITDA of 4 million euros, similar to that of 1Q09, with underlying margin improving by 9pp to negative 7.6% (1Q09 = -16.2%), in line with the goal of positive EBITDA in 2012.
  • Sonae RP recurrent EBITDA increased 7%, explained by the greater asset portfolio resulting from the organic expansion of retail stores in Portugal, which offset the zero indexation of rents, consistent with the economic environment.
  • Sonae Sierra recurrent EBITDA increased by 8%, benefiting from efficiency and cost control initiatives implemented.
  • Sonaecom recurrent EBITDA improved by 6%, mainly driven by the mobile business. The efforts to optimize the cost structure more than off-set the negative impact of the end of asymmetries in Mobile Termination Rates.

EBIT breakdown

Direct net income – equity holders

  • Sonae's EBITDA increased by 8% to 128 million euros, 3 million euros higher than recurrent EBITDA, as a result of the gain from the sale & leaseback of 2 Modelo supers to a Portuguese investment fund.
  • Sonae's total direct net income increased by 14 to 18 million euros, with the share of equity holders totalling 9 million euros, 8 million euros up on 1Q09. This growth mainly reflects EBITDA performance and a significant fall in net financial expenses, despite higher depreciation and tax charges.
  • Depreciation and amortization charges were up by 2%, driven by the increased asset base resulting from the high levels of Capex in recent years, namely the expansion of the retail store network.
  • Net financial results improved by 36% compared to 1Q09, mainly as a result of net interest expenses, which fell by 15 million euros, due to a fall in the average cost of debt resulting from the general decrease in interest rates.
  • Taxation for the period shows a cost of 8 million euros, compared to a profit of 1 million euros in 1Q09, mainly explained by the strong increase in EBT.

VCIDP breakdown

Indirect net income – quarterly trend

Shopping centres indirect income

  • Equity holders' share of consolidated indirect income was negative 3 million euros, compared to negative 36 million euros in 1Q09, reflecting a stabilization of yields across all the countries in which Sonae Sierra is present, with the exception of Portugal.
  • VCIDP in the shopping centres business was only 2 million euros negative, as a result of: (i) a 7 million euros decrease in the value of European shopping centres in the portfolio (0.5% devaluation of properties since 2009, in Europe), explained by the increase in capitalization yields in Portugal; in 1Q10, the average portfolio yield was 7.2%, compared to 7.0% in 2009; (ii) a 2 million euros increase from the estimated improved performance of shopping centres owned; and (iii) 3 million euros of value recognized on the development activity, of which 2.5 million euros of value recognized on the one property opened during the quarter (Leiria Shopping); and a 0.5 million euros increase in valuation, driven by upward adjustments on properties under development.
  • During 1Q10, a deceleration of the trend of yield increases was clearly noticeable, with only those properties in Portugal suffering from the effects of yield expansion. This was reflected in the indirect results posted in the quarter, representing the lowest negative non-cash charge since 1Q08. The latest quarterly valuation of the assets implies that average yields increased in Portugal by 13bp, while yields in other countries remained relatively flat.

Invested capital breakdown

CAPEX

  • Sonae's total CAPEX in 1Q10 totalled 98 million euros (7% of turnover), mainly reflecting the Company's capital light approach to growth.
  • Sonae MC CAPEX of 19 million euros, 44% below that in 1Q09, was mainly allocated towards store refurbishment and preparation work for future openings.
  • Sonae SR CAPEX was 20 million euros (down 3 million euros compared to LY), of which 9 million euros was for the expansion effort by Sonae SR International and 5 million euros for the increase in coverage of Portugal by Sonae SR Portugal.
  • Sonae RP CAPEX amounted to 11 million euros, allocated to the acquisition of plots of land destined for future openings. CAPEX was 42% below that in 1Q09, already reflecting the capital light strategy adopted (leasing instead of owning) for new retail sales area, particularly in relation to Modelo stores.
  • Sonae Sierra CAPEX included: (i) the conclusion of Leiria, in Portugal (opened in March); (ii) progress on the development of projects in the pipeline already announced and scheduled for 2011, namely Le Terrazze, in Italy and Uberlândia, in Brazil; and (iii) progress on the expansion of Parque D.Pedro, in Brazil.
  • Sonaecom CAPEX comprised mainly investment in improving the expansion and coverage of its network, and benefited from its strategy of pursuing a 'capital light' deployment in the Wireline segment, including shared network investment agreements.

Sonae Sierra and Holding Loan to value

Note: Leverage Ratios based on financial debt (excluding shareholder loans)

Capital structure

  • Sonae's net debt fell by 8%, in line with expectations and the objective of deleveraging over time in absolute and relative terms. Sonae's weighted average maturity stood at approximately 4.9 years, with no major debt repayments expected over the next 12 months.
  • Retail business' net debt in the quarter mainly reflected the funding of the seasonal increase in working capital and international expansion, as well as the proceeds from the sale & leaseback of 2 Modelo supers, amounting to 12 million euros; compared to end 1Q09, Net Debt to EBITDA (last 12 months) improved to 4.0x, explained by a combination of lower net debt and a higher level of EBITDA in the prior 12 month period.
  • Sonae Sierra's net debt was considerably lower than that at end 1Q09, with loan to value decreasing to 46%, despite the fall in value of European Shopping centres in the portfolio during the last 12 months.
  • Sonaecom's net debt, excluding the proceeds from the securitization transaction, stood at 370 million euros, 17% below that at the end 1Q09, primarily reflecting the positive FCF performance between the two periods; Net Debt to EBITDA (last 12 months) improved to 2.1x, as a result of both a decrease in net debt and the improved EBITDA performance over the last 12 months.
  • Holding's net debt decreased by 79 million euros, which included the impact from inflows resulting from the cash settled equity swap. Holding loan to value stood at 15.4%, an improvement of 7.1pp compared to end 1Q09. The average maturity increased substantially to 4.1 years, after the early repayment of a loan maturing in 2011, followed by a bond issue, amounting to 250 million euros, completed in April 2010 and maturing in 2015.

5CORPORATE INFORMATION

Quarterly corporate developments

  • Sonae informed about the early repayment, on 10 May 2010, of the bonds Sonae SGPS 2006/2011, totalling 250 million euros and maturing in May 2011.
  • Sonae informed about the completion of a bond issue, by private placement, amounting to 250 million euros; this operation allowed for the early repayment of Sonae Holding's bonds maturing in 2011, representing half of its medium and long term debt, and for a substantial increase in the average maturity of its debt to 4.1 years, with the next refinancing only due in 2013.

Outlook

Sonae remains cautious about the overall economic situation, particularly in respect to unemployment and private consumption. However, the strong performance achieved in the 1Q10 gives us confidence in our ability to continue to successfully deliver growth and high levels of profitability.

The financial investments in group companies, jointly controlled companies or associated companies excluded from consolidation are recorded at the acquisition cost net of impairment losses. It is Sonae understanding that no reliable fair value estimate could be made as there is no market data available for these investments. The heading of Investments available for sale includes 3,529,415 euro (2,661,538 euro as at 31 March 2009) of investments recorded at the cost net of impairment losses for the same reasons.

The investments available for sale are net impairment losses (Note 25) amounting 68,099 euro (13,157 euro as at 31 March 2009).

Under the caption other financial investments is recorded an amount of 45,119,484 euro (55,954,527 euro as at 31 March 2009) related to deposited amounts on an Escrow Account which are invested in investment funds with superior rating and guarantee contractual liabilities assumed by Sonae which may arise from the sale of Sonae Distribuição Brasil, S.A., and for which provisions were recorded (Note 25).

Although in accordance with the deadlines contractually established, the Escrow Account should have already been released by the buyer, that didn´t happen as there are some points of disagreement on how to use the Escrow Account, namely as to whether or not, to return the Escrow Account for ongoing fiscal procedures that have not yet been decided by Brazilian authorities (Note 26). It is the understanding of the Board of Directors, based in the legal opinions of Brazilian and Portuguese lawyers, that this amount shall be entirely received up to 31 December 2010, and that there are legal means that may be operated so as to compel the buyer to authorize the return of the Escrow account. If the negotiations currently under way between the two parties do not accomplish in results, it is the intention of the Board to make use of such legal means.

18 SHARE CAPITAL

As at 31 March 2010, the share capital, which is fully subscribed and paid for, is made up of 2,000,000,000 ordinary shares, which do not have the right to a fixed dividend, with a nominal value of 1 euro each.

On 15 November 2007, Sonae Holding sold, 132,856,072 Sonae Holding shares directly owned by the Company. The shares were sold in a market operation at the unit price of 2.06 euro per share and resulted on a cash inflow (net of brokerage commissions) of 273,398,877 euro.

On the same date, Sonae Investments, BV, wholly owned by Sonae Holding entered into a derivative financial instrument - Cash Settled Equity Swap - over a total of 132,800,000 Sonae Holding shares, representative of 6.64% of its share capital.

This transaction has a maximum maturity of three years and a strictly financial liquidation, without any duty or right for the Company or any of its associated companies in the purchase of these shares. This transaction allows Sonae Investments BV to totally maintain the economic exposure to the sold shares.

In this context, although legally all the rights and obligations inherent to these shares have been transferred to the buyer, Sonae Holding did not derecognize their own shares, recording a liability in the caption Other non-current liabilities (Note 22). According to the interpretation made by Sonae of the IAS 39, applied by analogy to own equity instruments, the derecognition of own shares is not allowed as Sonae maintains the risks and rewards arising on the instruments sold.

Consequently, Sonae maintains the deduction from Equity amounting to the acquisition cost of the 132,800,000 shares (138,568,275 euro), and has accounted for the consideration received for the above mentioned sale of own shares in the caption Other non-current liabilities (273,568,000 euro).

Due to the detach of Sonae Capital SGPS, SA, as at 4 January 2008, demerger rights attributable to the 132,800,000 Sonae SGPS, SA shares subject to the above mentioned agreement, Sonae recognized an asset measured at its' fair value . This asset has not been derecognized as Sonae also entered into a Cash Settled Equity Swap over the Sonae Capital SGPS, SA shares, and therefore a liability was recognized.

On 23 April 2009 and 10 March 2010 Sonae Investments BV requested a partial cancellation of the Cash settled Equity Swap for 1,134,965 and 1,185,144 shares Sonae Holding respectively, passing the derivative financial instrument to 130,479,891 shares Sonae Holding.

Consequently, and in relation with this operation the full liability amount can be detailed as follows at 31 March 2010: market value of Sonae SGPS, SA shares amounting to 106,341,111 euro and market value of Sonae Capital SGPS, SA shares amounting to 10,126,000 euro, after the conversion of rights occurred on 28 January 2008.

These liabilities are adjusted at the end of each month by the effect in Sonae Holding or Sonae Capital, SGPS, S.A. share price, as applicable, being recognized an asset/liability in order to present the right/obligation related to the cash settlement of the operation that resets monthly.

Additionally, the costs related to the "floating amount" based on Euribor 1 month are recorded in the income statement.

The receivable amount arising on dividends distributed by the Company is credited to Equity in order to offset the charge of the distribution.

The number of shares taken into consideration to calculate earnings per share includes the shares referred to above as a deduction to the shares issued by the Company.

At 31 March 2010, the following entities held more than 20% of the subscribed share capital:

Entity %
Efanor Investimentos, SGPS, SA and subsidiaries 52.98

21 DERIVATIVES

Exchange rate derivatives

Sonae uses exchange rate derivatives, essentially to hedge future cash flows.

Sonae contracted several exchange rate forwards and options in order to manage its exchange rate exposure.

As at 31 March 2010, the fair value of exchange rate derivatives witch haven't been considered hedging instruments, calculated based on present market value of equivalent financial instruments of exchange rate, is of 1,479 euro included in liabilities (79,039 euro as of 31 December 2009) and 1,157,835 euro on the caption current investments (365,121 euro as at 31 December 2009).

The computation of the fair value of these financial instruments was made taking into consideration the present value at balance sheet date of the forward settlement amount of the relevant contract. The settlement amount considered in the valuation, is equal to the reference currency notional amount (foreign currency) multiplied by the difference between the contracted forward exchange rate and the forward exchange market rate to the settlement date as at the valuation date.

Losses in the period arising from changes in the fair value of instruments that do not qualify for hedging accounting treatment were recorded directly in the income statement in the caption Net financial expenses.

Interest rate derivatives

As at 31 March 2010, derivatives used by Sonae refer essentially to swaps and interest rate options ("cash flow hedges"). These were negotiated to hedge the interest rate risk of loans amounting to 947,809,724 euro (948,629,817 euro as at 31 December 2009). The fair value of these derivatives amounts to 49,907,657 euro (-42,394,481 euro as at 31 December 2009), and is disclosed as assets amounting to 247 euro (12,992 euro as at 31 December 2009) and as liabilities 49,907,657 euro (42,407,473 euro as at 31 de December de 2009).

These derived instruments were evaluated having in consideration the cash flows estimated resultant from them, admitting the exercise of the option of cancellation on the part of the counterparts from the moment in that the rates of interest forward be over the rate sets hired. It is intention of the Sonae stop these instruments to the to his maturity, by what does this form of evaluation translates to better estimate of the resulting future cash flows of these instruments.

These interest rate derivatives are valued at fair value, at the balance sheet date, based on valuations performed by Sonae using specific software and on external valuations when this software does not deal with specific instruments. The fair value of swaps was calculated, as at the balance sheet date, based on the discounted cash flow of the difference between the fixed interest rate of the fixed leg and the indexed variable interest rate inherent to the variable leg. The calculation of the fair value of options was based on the "Black-Scholes" and similar models.

Interest rate and exchange rate derivatives

As at 31 March 2010 no contracts existed related to interest rate and exchange rate derivatives.

33 COMMITMENTS WITH "INFORMATION SOCIETY"

Upon being given the UMTS Licence, Optimus (now Sonaecom – Serviços de Comunicações) assumed commitments in the area of promotion of the Information Society, totalling 274 million euro, to be complied with up to the end of the licence period (2015).

In accordance with the Agreement established on 5 June 2007 with the Ministry of Public Works, Transport and Communications ("MOPTC"), part of these commitments, up to 159 million euro will be realised through own projects which qualify as contributions to the Information Society and incurred under the normal activities of Sonaecom – Serviços de Comunicações, S.A. (investment in the network and technology not resulting from the need to comply with the obligations assumed when the UMTS Licence was granted, and activities relating to research, development and promotion of services, contents and applications) which must be recognised by the MOPTC and by entities created especially for that purpose. At 31 March 2010 the total amount was already incurred and validated by the above referred entities, so at this date there are no additional responsibilities related to these commitments. These charges were recorded in the financial statements at the moment the projects were carried out and the estimated costs became known.

The remaining commitments, up to the amount of around 116 million euro, will be realised as agreed between Sonaecom- Serviços de Comunicações and MOPTC, through contributions to the "Initiativas E" project (offer of modems, discounts on tariffs, cash contributions, among others, relating to the widespread use of broadband internet by students and teachers), the contributions being made through an Open fund called Information Society Fund (Fundo para a Sociedade de Informação), to be created by the three mobile operators operating in Portugal.The success of this project, initiated in the end of 2007, depended on the beneficiaries' participation to the various initiatives (e-opportunities, e-school and e-teacher) and could have been subject to revision during the a period of 12 months, i.e., until June 2008. Due to these facts, it was not possible, at 31 December 2007, to estimate in a reliable way the success of this project, and therefore, at that date it was not possible to produce a secure and reliable estimate of the responsibilities to be recognised.

Taking into consideration the success of the project during 2008, Sonaecom considered that conditions to produce a reliable estimate of the total responsibilities associated with "Initiatives E" project were in place. Therefore, such responsibilities were recorded, at June 2008, as an added cost of the UMTS license, against an entry in the captions 'Other non-current liabilities' (Note 28) and 'Other current liabilities' (Note 32). At the end of March 2010 this responsibilities were all recorded in the financial statements.

34 PRESENTATION OF CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT

In the Management Report, and for the purposes of calculating financial indicators as EBITDA, EBIT and as well for segments income presentation purposes, the income statement is divided between Direct Income and Indirect Income, according to common practice in the Shopping Centre business.
