  • 3rd quarter underlying EBITDA margin of 7.8% maintaining previous quarters performance

Sonae SR:

  • Double digit 9M14 turnover growth of 10.4%
  • Positive 3rd quarter underlying EBITDA

Further improvement of Sonae Sierra occupancy rates to 95.1% and LfL tenant sales growth in Europe reached 4.2%. Moreover, following entering in China and in Morocco, Sonae Sierra signed an agreement for the creation in Russia of a 50/50 joint-venture with OST development, reinforcing its international expansion

NOS strong operational trends in 9M14 led to market share gains and improvements in core telco financial performance

Direct Result grew by 20.3% in 9M14, reaching 92 million euros

Sonae further reinforced its capital structure, and concluded several financing operations with maturities up to 6 years

2 CEOMESSAGE

"The quarter was characterized by growing consumer spending in discretionary products in our main markets and continuing price wars in food and telecom in Portugal.

Within this context, SONAE MC continued to defend and improve its position winning market share and limiting impacts on profitability. This has been achieved through continued work on operational efficiency and new projects to improve promotional efficiency as well as a new focus on communicating our real price advantage.

Likewise, NOS is increasingly demonstrating that it is the natural leader in convergence, posting very strong net‐adds in all the key segments, at the same time that structural cost savings from the merger process are beginning to show through and compensating price pressures.

SONAE SIERRA has registered overall improving tenant sales and, whereas rental income will naturally lag, there are already positive rental income figures in Portugal. SONAE SIERRA BRASIL has been successful in leasing the most recently opened centres in a market where many are failing to do so.

SONAE SR is driving our consolidated growth despite the fact that we are in many circumstances shifting to smaller store formats and thus decreasing overall Gross Lettable Area (GLA). The combination of LfL growth and improved sales productivity of refurbished stores is driving significant improvements in sales per sqm.

Our INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT activity, besides concluding the sale of Mainroad to NOS, completed the acquisition of a majority stake in S21Sec – a very promising company in the field of cyber security, which has an important fit with our SSI division.

Net debt versus the same quarter in the previous year increased 17 M€, which is a very satisfactory result given the payment of over 100 M€ that became due to France Telecom in the quarter regarding the acquisition of their stake in SONAECOM agreed in 2013."

Paulo Azevedo, CEO

Following the merger between Zon and Optimus and its report using the equity method, we decided to change the way we report our results to the market by separating each business, in order to obtain more transparency between the segments: 1) Sonae Retail: Sonae MC, SR and RP; 2) Investment Management, including Software and Systems Information, and Público businesses from Sonaecom; 3) Sonae Sierra and 4) NOS. Moreover, Sonae adjusted the 2013 profit and loss statements on a pro forma basis (3Q13 PF and 9M13 PF), assuming that the merger between ZON and Optimus occurred in January 1st 2013, with some consolidation effects in our co‐controlled vehicle company. This criterion, besides assuring an easier and fairer comparability between 2013 and 2014 results, is in line with the current reporting pro forma method adopted by Sonaecom, NOS and market expectations.

3 SONAERETAILRESULTS

Sonae MC

Turnover and underlying EBITDA margin

Note: Data provided by Eurostat as of October 27th 2014.

Sonae MC turnover totalled 2,537 M€ in 9M14 corresponding to an increase of 45 M€ and 1.8% when compared to the same period of the previous year. The turnover increase was driven by approximately 4.2% volume sales growth mostly supported by the opening of 6 Continente Modelo stores and 5 Continente Bom Dia stores over the last 12 months.

During this period Sonae MC continued to strengthen its leading market share in the Portuguese food retail sector1 which is a consequence of the loyalty of our customers who trust in the value for money of our products. Furthermore, Continente private label portfolio represented in 9M14 approximately 30% of the turnover of FMCG categories proving the customers' acceptance of our products. Sonae MC's ecommerce platform posted a 10% y.o.y. growth in online sales.

Once again, the third quarter of 2014 was characterized by the highly competitive environment in the retail sector in Portugal which led us to maintain the strong promotional activity causing an internal deflation of 2.4% in the 9M14 (and 2.6% in the 3Q14 which shows sign of a slower pace in the 2nd half of the 3Q). Despite the deflation, Sonae MC reached an underlying EBITDA margin of 6.7% (171 M€) in 9M14 and 7.8% (71 M€) in 3Q14. It is worth highlighting that Sonae MC develops an efficient and targeted promotional activity based on the Continente loyalty card which accounted for more than 90% of sales in the period.

Sonae MC continues to explore initial opportunities both in wholesale and franchising. During the 9M14 Sonae MC opened 42 Meu Super stores and 1 note! store under franchising agreements, thus finalizing the first nine months of the year with 123 stores of this format (36,000 m2 ).

  • ‐ the new concept of smaller stores in Spain continued showing good results. Organic international sales per m2 at Worten, Sport Zone and Zippy increased by 18%;
  • MO in Portugal grew at double‐digit on a LfL basis proving the success of its new value proposition which includes brand, store and product improvement; and,
  • Zippy started a partnership with Continente loyalty card at the end of third quarter providing new saving solutions to the Portuguese families. This partnership will contribute to the increase of Zippy's attractiveness in Portugal with effects expected to start in 4Q14.

Already in October, Zippy reinforced its presence in Latin America by entering the Chilean market.

In 9M14, Investment Management turnover reached 186 M€, 13.5% and 22 M€ above the figure registered in 9M13. This result was, in part, impacted by the increase of 6.6%6 of the SSI business, which totalled 89.3 M€6 in 9M14 but also by the turnover increase in the other areas. It is worth to highlight the 18.2% increase in the 3Q14 Investment Management turnover when compared to the value amounted in the same period last year.

Furthermore, Investment Management underlying EBITDA totalled 11 M€, 45.7% above 9M13 corresponding to an underlying EBITDA margin of 6.1% in 9M14 (9.7% in 3Q14).

Regarding our partnerships:

MDS performance has been impacted by the pressure faced in insurance premiums and the depreciation of the Brazilian Real. Despite the worse performance in the quarter versus 3Q13 the company expects to recover in 4Q14;

GeoStar, gained market share7 in the quarter presenting 0.1% increase in BSP sales versus a market decrease of 1.1%;

4 Sonae holds 50% of Maxmat and 77.7% of Tlantic and adopts the full consolidation

Maxmat continued to improve its operational performance in the quarter and delivered the best quarter of the year both in terms of turnover and EBITDA growth.

In what concerns the SSI unit, it suffered some changes in its portfolio. On 22nd September 2014, Sonaecom announced the sale of the total share capital of Mainroad to NOS. Mainroad is a leading company in Portugal in the area of Information Technology, holding two Data Centers – one in Porto and another in Lisbon ‐ and offering a full set of services: Business Continuity, Cloud Computing and IT Managed Services.

As reported in 1H14 earnings announcement, Sonaecom acquired a 60% stake of the share capital of S21Sec, a multinational with the main office based in Madrid, specialized in cyber security services.

These two transactions demonstrate that SSI continues to take solid steps in the wake of its strategy of active management of its portfolio.

Another important milestone in the SSI business is related to Saphety, which is extending its operation to Russia, strengthening its current geographical presence (Denmark, Finland, Greece, Sweden, Portugal and Colombia).

Regarding the retail technology businesses, during 3Q14 Sonae concluded an investment in Movvo (ex‐Around Knowledge). Movvo is a Portuguese startup that developed a proprietary tagless real time location technology.

Open Market Value (OMV) and leverage

OMV atributable to Sonae Sierra Loan‐to‐value

The benchmark quality of Sonae Sierra assets continues to be reflected in a high average occupancy rate which, in 9M14, totalled 95.1%. Moreover, Sonae Sierra occupancy rate in Europe reached 95.6% reflecting the higher private consumption and consumer confidence witnessed in Portugal. In Brazil this rate was 93.7%, 1.4 p.p. below the percentage totalled in the same period of 2013. This result was reached due to the initial lower occupancy rate of Passeio das Águas.

LfL tenant sales in Europe in 9M14 increased to 4.2%, recovering 7 p.p. when compared to 9M13, which shows a very positive evolution. Despite this positive evolution and the higher occupancy rate, tenant sales in Europe decreased by 2.8% y.o.y. due to the perimeter changes (sale of Parque Principado in Spain in October 7th 2013, ValeCenter and Airone in Italy in December 20th 2013 and 90% of Sonae Sierra ownership in Le Terrazze Shopping centre also in Italy in July 2nd 2014). In Brazil LfL tenant sales registered 7.5% and tenant sales in local currency improved by 17% y.o.y..

The 9M14 turnover decreased 2 M€ when compared with the value amounted in 9M13, totalling 164 M€. This result was mainly driven by the European sale of assets in 2013 and 2014 and to the adverse currency exchange effect (from Brazilian real). The EBITDA registered 78 M€, 6.5% below 9M13 impacted by the lower turnover which translates into an EBITDA margin of 47.8%.

The direct results were also impacted by the already mentioned sale of assets and the adverse FX change effect recording 36 M€, 7 M€ below 9M13. Indirect result amounted to 24 M€ in 9M14 which were influenced by the yields compression in Portugal and Spain but also by the positive evolution of the operational performance. However, indirect results, this quarter, were not impacted by the real estate valuations since Sonae Sierra only revalues its assets in a semi‐annual basis. Nevertheless, net results recover by 55 M€ totalling 60 M€ in 9M14 as a consequence of the higher indirect results registered in 1H14.

On September 30th 2014 the OMV (Open Market Value) attributable to Sonae Sierra was 2,099 bn€, 16 M€ above December 31st 2013, as a result of the real estate yields recovery and the real appreciation. NAV (Net Asset Value) was positively impacted for the same reasons as OMV, reaching at 9M14 1,096 bn€, 95 M€ above December 2013.

At the end of September 2014 the Loan‐to‐value ratio remains at a conservative level of 42%.

Indirect results registered 5 M€ which are not comparable with the 289 M€ totalled in the previous year since the 9M13 indirect results include a gain related to the NOS merger as well as some impairments booked in 3Q13. In 9M14, consolidated turnover totalled 3,610 M€, 143 M€ and 4.1% above the same period of the previous year. This result was mainly impacted by the stronger performance of Sonae SR and Investment Management which turnover grew 10.4% and 13.5%, respectively.

Despite Sonae MC underlying EBITDA being negatively impacted by the highly competitive environment among the Portuguese food retail industry, the consolidated underlying EBITDA increased 0.7% when compared to 9M13 reaching 259 M€. This achievement was backed on the improvements in the underlying EBITDA of Sonae SR (+82.9% vs. 9M13) and Investment Management (+45.7% vs. 9M13).

In 9M14, EBITDA amounted to 293 M€ which includes the contributions of the:

  • (ii) equity method results of 35 M€ (from Sonae Sierra direct results, NOS and GeoStar).

Net financial results registered negative 58 M€ in 9M14, 11% below the value totalled in the previous year, supported by the lower level of net debt. The average interest rate of outstanding credit facilities at the end of 9M14 was slightly above 3%. These financial results are only related to Retail and Investment Management businesses.

In 9M14 direct results were 16 M€ above the figure registered in the same period of the previous year, totalling 92 M€. This result was mostly driven by the lower D&A (‐15 M€ vs. 9M13), and the improvement in net financial activity (‐7 M€ vs. 9M13), that more than compensated the decrease in the equity method results (‐ 7 M€ vs. 9M13).

Net income attributable to the Group (5) reached 95 M€, a figure 31 M€ above result achieved last year, mostly driven by the higher direct results reached but also to the Sonae Sierra Indirect results enhanced by the real estate yields reduction effect booked in the 1H14.

In 9M14, total shareholders' funds totalled 1,795 M€, 85 M€ bellow the same period of last year.

Total net debt totalled 1,414 M€ at the end of September, a figure marginally above the value registered in 9M13, driven by the payment of Sonaecom shares to France Telecom made in August. If we exclude this payment to France Telecom, Net Debt would have been reduced by 88 M€. This commitment was already reflected in the consolidated accounts, since June 2013, under "other creditors", but was not qualified as financial debt. The company thus continued to improve the relevant leverage ratios.

In relation to the debt maturity profile, during the 3Q Sonae concluded a series of transactions with maturities up to 6 years, which enabled Sonae to smooth the maturity profile, whilst optimizing its cost of funding, strengthening its capital structure and diversifying its financing sources.

In 9M14 retail net debt totalled 821 M€, reducing 75 M€ when compared to 9M13, driven by sustainable cash flow generation over the last 12 months. The company thus continued to strengthen its capital structure, with total net debt to EBITDA reaching 2.2x in 9M14, a ratio that compares with 2.5x in the same period of 2013.

The holding net debt was reduced to 549 M€ at the end of September 2014. The "loan‐to‐value" ratio of the holding remains at conservative levels of 13% in 9M14, an improvement of 3 p.p. when compared to 9M13.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2014

(Translation of consolidated financial statements originally issued in Portuguese. In case of discrepancy the Portuguese version prevails)

(Amounts expressed in euro)

1 INTRODUCTION

SONAE, SGPS, SA ("Sonae Holding") has its head-office at Lugar do Espido, Via Norte, Apartado 1011, 4470- 909 Maia, Portugal, and is the parent company of a group of companies, as detailed in Notes 5 to 7 the Sonae Group ("Sonae"). Sonae's operations and operating segments are described in Note 30.

On the 27th August 2013, the merger between Optimus, SGPS, SA in Zon Multimédia – Serviços de Telecomunicações and Multimédia, SGPS, SA (Note 4) was completed. Accordingly, the telecommunications segment was classified, for disclosure purposes, as a discontinued operation in September 2013.

2 PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those described in the file of annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2013.

2.1 Basis of preparation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union, 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"), as adopted by the European Union as from the consolidated financial statements issuance date.

Interim financial statements are presented quarterly, in accordance with IAS 34 – "Interim Financial Reporting".

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the books and accounting records of the company and subsidiaries, adjusted in the consolidation process, on a going concern basis and under the historical cost convention, except for some financial instruments and properties investments which are stated at fair value.

New accounting standards and their impact on the consolidated financial statements:

Up to the financial statements approval date, the following standards interpretations, some of which become mandatory during 2014, have been endorsed by the European Union:

With mandatory application in 2014: Effective date (for
financial years
beginning on/after)
IFRS 10 - (Consolidated Financial Statements) 01 Jan 2014
IFRS 11 - (Joint arrangements) 01 Jan 2014
IFRS 12 - (Disclosures of Interests in Other Entities) 01 Jan 2014
IAS 27 - (Separate Financial Statements – revised in 2011) 01 Jan 2014
IAS 28 - (Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures) 01 Jan 2014
Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 27 (Investments Entities) 01 Jan 2014
IAS 32 - Amendments (Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities) 01 Jan 2014
Amendments to IAS 36 (Recoverable amount disclosures for Non-Financial Assets) 01 Jan 2014
Amendments to IAS 39 (Reformulation of Derivatives and continuation of Hedge
Accounting)
01 Jan 2014
IFRIC 21 - (Levies) 01 Jan 2014

No significant impacts are expected in the financial statements resulting from the adoption of these standards during 2014, namely because the Group has amended the measurement of investments in jointly controlled entities by applying the equity method.

The following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions haven't been until the date of approval of these financial statements, endorsed by the European Union, whose application is mandatory in future financial years:

With mandatory application after 2014: Effective date (for
financial years
beginning on/after)
IFRS 9 - (Financial instruments – classification and measurement) 01 Jan 2018
IFRS 11 (Amendment) – (Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations) 01 Jan 2016
IAS 16 and IAS 38 (Amendment) – (Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation
and Amortisation)
01 Jan 2016
IFRS 10 and IAS 28 (Amendment) - Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor
and its Associate or Joint Venture
01 Jan 2016
IAS 27 (Amendment) - Equity Method in Separate Financial Statements 01 Jan 2016
IFRS 14 – (Regulatory Deferral Accounts) 01 Jan 2016
IFRS 15 – (Revenues from Contracts with Customers ) 01 Jan 2017
IAS 19 (Amendment) – (Employee Benefits) 01 Jul 2014
Improvements of international financial reporting standards (2010-2012 cycle, 2011- 2013
cycle and 2012-2014 cycle)
01 Jul 2014

The Group is to assess the impact of these changes and will apply these standards in the year in which they become effective.

3 CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

During the period was adopted a set of accounting standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions issued in previous periods and whose implementation became mandatory after the 1st January 2014 as disclosed in Note 2 and which didn't have any significant impacts on the financial statements as at 30 September 2014.

As set by IFRS 5, changes were made in the consolidated profit and loss statements for the period ended at 30 September 2013, in order to disclose a single caption ('Net income/(loss) for the year of discontinued operations') related to net income/(loss) of discontinued operations.

On 30 September 2014, are included in "Other Investments", among others 10,000,127 euro (12,512,681 euro as at 31 December 2013) related to deposited amounts on an Escrow Account which is invested in investment funds with superior rating and contractual liability guarantees assumed in the disposal of a Brazil Retail business and for which provisions were recorded in the applicable situations (Note 24).

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 the use of the Escrow Account, namely as whether or not, to retain the Escrow Account for on-going fiscal procedures that have not yet been decided (Note 25). It is the understanding of the Board of Directors, based on legal opinions of Brazilian and Portuguese lawyers that the reason attends to Sonae.

Financial investment in Cooper Gay Sweet & Crawford Ltd maintained its fair value at 31 December 2013. The valuation of this investment was performed on a binding acquisition proposal received from an unrelated entity and knowledgeable entity of the sector in the last quarter of 2013, which was not considered appropriate by the board of directors of the company.

Under the agreed terms resulting from the grant of the UMTS License, NOS Comunicações, committed to contribute to the promotion of an 'Information Society', the total amount of the obligations assumed arose to 274 million euro which will have to be fulfilled until the end of 2015.

In accordance with the Agreement established on the 5th June 2007 with the Ministério das Obras Públicas, Transportes e Comunicações ('MOPTC') part of these commitments, up to 159 million euro, would be realized through own projects eligible as contributions to the 'Information Society' which will be incurred under the normal course of NOS Conunicações's business (investments in network and technology, if not directly related with the accomplishment of other obligations inherent to the attribution of the UMTS License, and activities of research, development and promotion of services, contents and applications). These own projects must be recognized by the MOPTC and by entities created specifically for this purpose. 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 attached financial statements at the moment the projects were carried out and the estimated costs became known.

The remaining commitments, up to 116 million euro, has been realized, as agreed between NOS Comunicações and MOPTC, through contributions to the 'Iniciativas E' project (modem offers, discounts on tariffs, cash contributions, among others, assigned to the widespread use of broadband internet for students and teachers). These contributions are made through the 'Fund for the Information Society', now known as the 'Fundação para as Comunicações Móveis' (Foundation for Mobile Communications), established by the three mobile operators with businesses in Portugal. All responsibility was recognized as an additional cost of UMTS license, against an entry in the captions 'Other non-current liabilities' and 'Other current liabilities'. Thus, at 31 December 2013, all the responsibilities with such commitments were derecognized from consolidated financial statements following the merger between Optimus SGPS and Zon following derecognition of assets and liabilities of the telecommunications business (Note 4).

Additionally the caption " Industrial property " includes the acquisition cost of a group of brands with indefinite useful lives, incliding "Continente" brand, acquired in previous years, amounting to 75,000,000 euro (the same amount on 2013).

Under the caption other non-current financial investments an amount of 10,000,127 euro (12,512,674 euro in 30 September 2013) is recorded related to deposited amounts on an Escrow Account (Note 7). The caption of the "decreases in the period" during 2013 results from the use of the Escrow Account for payment concerning civil and labor cases mentioned in Note 24.

In "Other Investments" currents are recorded 52,573,828 euro (164,953,026 euro in 30 September 2013) of shares NOS, that resulted from the merger process between Optimus SGPS and ZON (Note 4). This investment is recorded at fair value through profit and loss accounts, since it is an asset for the purpose of selling in the short term. As stated in the shareholder agreement, these shares do not confer any additional voting or interfere in the situation of shared control in Zon Optimus. During the period Zon Optimus, SGPS, SA changed its name to NOS, SGPS, SA.

The decreases on 30 September 2014 represent the counterpart in shares NOS provided for under the terms of the exchange General Public and Voluntary Offer purchase of shares Sonaecom SGPS, SA. As a result of

this offer the Sonaecom has reduced its investment in shares NOS in 26,476,792 shares (141,650,837 euros) (Note 18), and now holds 11,012,532 shares representing 2.14% of the share capital of NOS.

The decrease in fair value, in 2013 under the caption "Other current Investments" includes 8,217,684 euro on the recording of the fair value of the participation of NOS. The fair value of the investment is determined based on the price of NOS shares and the respective changes are recorded in the consolidated income statement.

The other non-current Investments are recorded at acquisition cost net of impairment losses. It is Sonae understanding that no reliable fair value estimate can be made as there is no market data available for these investments. The caption of "Other non-current Investments" includes 3,817,955 euro (3,141,937 euro in 30 September 2013) of investments recorded at acquisition cost net of impairment losses for the same reasons.

The other non-current Investments are net of impairment losses (Note 24) amounting to 257,729 euro (86,212 euro in 30 September 2013).

As a result of the agreements signed in 2005 by the former subsidiary - Sonae Distribuição Brazil, SA (sold to Wal-Mart in 2005) with Carrefour Comércio e Indústria Ltda, Sonae assumed responsibility to compensate Carrefour for the expenses that would arise from the 10 stores licensing process, in the Brazilian state of São Paulo, that were sold to that entity. During 2010, Carrefour triggered a bank warranty "on first demand" amounting to 25,340,145.80 Brazilian real (approximately 8.2 million euro) for alleged expenses incurred with the mentioned stores and that, allegedly, arose from the need to remedy deficiencies cited by competent authorities for the licensing process. However no evidence of those expenses were presented to Sonae, or proof of the necessity of carrying out such costs for the licensing process as established on the mentioned agreements. The variation in the period is explained by the evolution of the exchange rate of the real against the euro.

It is the understanding of the Board of Directors and the Group attorneys that the amount paid will be recovered. The company already established legal proceedings against Carrefour Comercio e Industria, Ltda., through society Wms - Supermarkets in Brazil, SA (formerly Sonae Distribution Brazil, SA, sold to Wal-Mart Group, as mentioned above) to recover the above mentioned amount (for Sonae, by right of claim on the Wms). It's the Board of Directors and the Group attorneys understanding that the above mentioned amount is

recoverable, since Carrefour has never proved the existence of the costs that it claims and which validate the usage of the above mentioned warranty, or through the warranty expiration date (according the Brazilian law).

17 CAPITAL SOCIAL

As at 30 September2014, 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 the 15th 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 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 current liabilities" (Note 23), 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, on the 4th January 2008, demerger rights attributable to the 132,800,000 Sonae Holding 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.

From 2009 to 2013 Sonae Investments BV requested a partial cancellation of the Cash Settled Equity Swap for 10,719,496 Sonae Holding shares. Thereafter, the derivative financial instrument focused on 122,080,504 Sonae Holding shares.

On the 19th October 2010 Sonae Investments BV came to an agreement with the above mentioned financial institution to extend the maturity date of the Cash Settled Equity Swap over Sonae Holding shares. The renewal of the maturity date was made for 3 additional years, until November 2013, keeping the settlement mechanism as strictly financial. The Cash Settled Equity Swap, over Sonae Capital SGPS, SA shares, at maturity date, was not renewed, as so Sonae acquired 16,600,000 Sonae Capital SGPS, SA shares at fair value, which corresponded to the amount of the liability recorded at the settlement date, representative of 6.6% of its capital. During 2012 Sonae Capital shares were disposed. In November 2013 was carried further renewal for a further period of one year, keeping the other conditions unchanged.

Considering the operations mentioned above, the amount of the liability recorded amounts to 103,720,530 euro (Note 23) (103,289,056 euro as at 31 December 2013) reflecting the market value of Sonae Holding shares.

These liabilities are adjusted at the end of each month by the effect in Sonae Holding 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 recognized in the income statement.

The value to get established on the basis of dividends distributed by Sonae is credited in equity to offset the charge of the distribution.

The number of shares taken into account to calculate earnings per share includes the shares referred to above as a deduction to the shares issued by the Company (Note 28).

As at 30 September 2014, the following entities held more than 20% of the subscribed share capital:

Efanor Investimentos, SGPS, SA and affiliated 52.48

In September 2014 a subsidiary of Sonae SGPS, SA issued bonds that are convertible into Sonae shares already issued and fully subscribed or to be the subject of further issue.

The bonds were issued at par in a nominal amount of 100,000 euro per bond, with a maturity of 5 years, and will pay a fixed coupon of 1.625% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears.

The bonds will be redeemable at par at maturity. The Issuer will have the right to redeem all outstanding bonds at par plus accrued interest on or after the third anniversary following the issue of the bonds if the aggregate value of the shares per bond for a specified period of time exceeds 130% of the nominal amount of the bonds or if 85% or more of the bonds initially issued shall have been converted, redeemed or purchased and cancelled.

In this context Sonae registered the convertible bond for the amount of 188,187,000 euro, deducted by the fair value of the conversion option into Sonae SGPS shares, in the amount of 22,313,000 euro. This amount is recorded in the caption "Fair value reserve" in equity. The average interest rate at 30 September 2014 of bonds and loans was of 3.07% (3.19% on 31 December 2013).

20 DERIVATIVES

Exchange rate derivatives

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

Thus Sonae entered into several exchange rate "forwards" and options in order to manage its exchange rate exposure.

As at 30 September 2014, there are no exchange rate derivatives which haven´t been considered heading instruments. The fair value of exchange rate derivatives hedging instruments, calculated based on present market value of equivalent financial instruments of exchange rate, is 598,197 euro as liabilities and assets as 5,042,285 euro (1,415,143 euro as liabilities and 35,999 euro as assets as at 31December 2013).

The determination of the fair value of these financial instruments was made taking into account the present value at statement of financial position date of the forward settlement amount in the maturity date of the contract. The settlement amount considered in the valuation, is equal to the currency notional amount (foreign currency) multiplied by the difference between the contracted forward exchange rate and the forward exchange market rate at that 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 captions "Financial income" or "Financial expenses".

Gains and losses for the year associated with the change in market value of derivative instruments are recorded under the caption "Hedging reserve" when considered cash flow hedging and when considered as fair value hedging are recorded under the caption "Financial income" or " Financial expenses". The change in fair value of derivative instruments when considered speculation is recorded in the income statement under "Other Costs".

Interest rate derivatives

As at 30 September 2014, Sonae has not hired hedging instruments that refer to swaps and interest rate options ("cash flow hedges"). These were negotiated to hedge the interest rate risk of loans. As at 31 December 2013 the covered amount by this type of financial derivatives was 150,000,000 euro. The net fair value of these derivatives amounts to -2,421,024 euro.

The derivatives were valuated considering the estimated future cash-flows, assuming that the cancellation options by the counterparties would be exercised when the forward interest rates are higher than the established fixed interest rate. Sonae intends to keep these derivatives until their maturity date, therefore, this valuation is considered to be the most appropriate to estimate the future cash flow of these instruments, as confirmed during 2014.

These interest rate derivatives are valued at fair value, at the statement of financial position 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 computed, as at the statement of financial position 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. The estimation of future cash flows is made on the basis of quotations forward market curve are implicit in, and the respective discount to the present, is accomplished using the higher interest rate curve is representative of the market, based on information from credible sources provided by Bloomberg, amongst others. Comparative quotes from financial institutions for specific instruments or similar, are used as a benchmark for evaluation. This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant.

31 PRESENTATION OF CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT

In the Management Report, and for the purposes of calculating financial indicators as EBIT, EBITDA and underlying EBITDA the consolidated income statement is divided between Direct Income and Indirect Income.

The Indirect Income includes the contribution of Sonae Sierra, net of taxes that result from: (i) valuation of investment properties; (ii) gains (losses) with the sale of financial investments, joint ventures or associates; (iii) impairment losses relating to non-current assets (including goodwill) and (iv) provisions for assets at risk. Additionally and with regard to the portfolio of Sonae: (i) impairment of real estate assets for retail, (ii) decreases in goodwill, (iii) provisions (net of tax) for possible future liabilities, and impairments related to noncore investments, businesses and discontinued assets (or to be discontinued / repositioned), (iv) valuation results based on the methodology "mark-to-market" of other current investments that will be sold or traded in the near future and (v) other irrelevant issues. The value of EBITDA is only calculated in the direct income component, excluding the indirect contributions.

The reconciliation between consolidated income and direct-indirect income for the periods ended 30 September 2014 and 2013 can be summarised as follows:
