ACTIVITY REPORT

CEO MESSAGE

As expected, our performance during the third quarter was impacted by the holiday period and the usual operational maintenance shutdowns of most of our plants in the northern hemisphere, which led to an 8% turnover decrease, when compared to previous quarter. Notwithstanding the lower top line, we continued to improve our operational profitability, with improvements in both variable and fixed costs components of our cost structure. As such, the Recurrent EBITDA of the quarter was 24 million Euros, with an improved recurrent EBITDA margin of 9.1%, up by 2.5 p.p. when compared to same quarter last year, mostly driven by improved profitability in all European regions, notably in Germany. For 9M14, consolidated Recurrent EBITDA reached 66 million Euros, reflecting a 3 million Euros improvements y.o.y., with a recurrent EBITDA margin of 7.7%, up by 0.9 p.p. when compared to same period of 2013.

During the third quarter we stopped the laminate flooring production operations of Pontecaldelas, in Spain, and continued to develop strategic initiatives to streamline our fixed cost base, namely adapting our support structures to a reduced industrial footprint.

At the end of October we announced two major steps in the path we set ourselves to reinforce our capital structure. We have signed the final refinancing agreements with our two main creditor banks (representing the majority of our consolidated gross debt), that will allow the refinancing of between 300 and 325 million Euros of debt, with a minimum grace period of 3 years and lower costs. We also completed an agreement to extend our existing trade receivables securitisation facility to September 2016. In addition, at the end of October, our Board of Directors approved the termsforthe planned capital increase of up to 150 million Euros. The corresponding prospectus was registered by the Portuguese Securities Market Commission on 4 November. Our majority shareholder, Efanor Investimentos, has already assumed the commitment to exercise, directly and through controlled subsidiaries, its respective pre‐ emption rights in the subscription of this share capital increase, a pre‐condition also necessary for the execution of the above mentioned refinancing agreements.

The combination of the debt refinancing and planned capital increase, together with the improved performance of our operations in the last two quarters, represent major steps towards delivering a higher and more sustainable level of profitability, and a strengthening of our capital structure. These measures will be further enhanced by completing the few remaining steps to optimize our industrial footprint and to concentrate production in our profitable plants.

With the continued support of all our stakeholders, we are now in a much improved position to successfully complete the implementation of the defined strategic plan and better position our company in terms of future competitiveness and profitability.

Rui Correia, CEO Sonae Indústria

1. TURNOVER & RECURRENT EBITDA

1.1. SONAE INDÚSTRIA CONSOLIDATED

(a) Restated, consolidating the investments in joint ventures according to the Equity Method.

Consolidated turnover in the 3Q14 was 267 million Euros, 8% below the level on the same period last year, mainly driven by the reduced industrial footprint, determined by the sale of two plants in France and the closure of the particleboard operations in Horn (Germany). The reduction in consolidated turnover resulted mostly from the reduced sales volumes (10.6% below the 3Q13), as average selling prices remained relatively stable (‐0.8% when compared to the 3Q13). When compared to the previous quarter, consolidated turnover decreased by 8%, naturally impacted by the seasonal effect of the operational maintenance shutdowns of most of our plants.

During the third quarter of this year, unitary variable costs continued to decrease, with improvements driven by wood, chemicals and thermal energy, more than compensating the cost increases witnessed in electricity and maintenance costs (in the latter case also impacted by the maintenance stoppage). These evolutions led to a 1.7% reduction in the consolidated unitary variable costs when compared to previous quarter. When compared to the same period last year, unitary variable costs were reduced by 2.7% driven primarily by reduction in chemical costs.

The fixed cost structure continued to be optimized with the on‐going implementation of initiatives to adapt the support structures to the reduced industrial footprint. As a result of these initiatives, total fixed costsin the first nine months of the year decreased by approximately 5% y.o.y. on a comparable basis(i.e., excluding the contribution of the two French plants in the second and third quarters of both periods).

At the end of September 2014, total headcount was of 3,793 FTEs, a reduction of 377 FTEs when compared to the end of 2013 (which is mainly explained by the sale of the two plants in France) and 70 FTEs when compared to end of June 2014. This last variation is mainly explained by the impact associated with the closure of operations in Pontecaldelas plant, in Spain, and the streamlining of the central support structures in France.

The average capacity utilization index of the group's plants in the quarter fell by approximately 9 p.p. when compared to the previous quarter (to circa 72%), as a natural consequence of the operational

maintenance shutdowns during the summer period. Average capacity utilization was up when compared to the 3Q13, it must be highlighted that, with the exception of our French operations, all our operations have increased their average capacity utilization index in the 3Q14, when compared to the same period last year.

Recurrent EBITDA in the 3Q14 reached 24 million Euros, implying a recurrent EBITDA margin of 9.1%, up by 2.5 p.p. when compared to 3Q13 and by 0.1 p.p. versus the previous quarter. Non‐recurrent EBITDA items were close to +4 million Euros in the quarter, with the negative impact from costs associated with headcount restructuring measures (4.1 million Euros) and costs associated with discontinued operations (5.1 million Euros) being more than compensated by the income registered in relation to an insurance settlement (13.2 million Euros), associated with the discontinued plant in Knowsley (UK). As result, total EBITDA for the quarter was of 28 million Euros.

The improved performance of the second and third quarter has more than compensated the lower result registered in the first quarter of 2014, allowing recurrent EBITDA for the 9M14 to be 3 million Euros above the 9M13 result. Importantly, recurrent EBITDA margin for the first nine months of 2014 was 7.7%, which compares with 6.8% registered in the 9M13.

1.2. SOUTHERN EUROPE

*Turnover per region includes intercompany group sales (between regions)

Performance in Southern Europe was negatively impacted in the third quarter by the slowdown associated with the Summer season and, in cumulative terms since the beginning of the year, continued to be negatively impacted by a constrained activity in the construction sector in Portugal, with new housing permits granted in the country continuously showing y.o.y. decreases (‐11.2%1 ). Some positive signs started to be evident in Spain, with a small increase in the new housing indicator in this country (+1.5%2 ). Similar to Portugal, the activity in the construction sector in France has been posting significant decreases in its activity levels, as shown by the "new housing" indicator, with a significant reduction of 13.1%3 , when compared to the previous year.

Highlights of the 9M14 performance, when compared to the 9M13, are summarized below:

  • Turnover reduced to 332 million Euros, with mixed effects by each of the countries. The negative contribution from a lower average selling price in both France and Iberian Peninsula was partly offset by higher volumes in Iberian Peninsula (+4.4% y.o.y.). In France, sales volumes were as expected impacted negatively by the sale of the Auxerre and Le Creusot plants, which led to a 30.8% y.o.y. decrease. Although performance in the quarter was naturally impacted by the maintenance shutdown, it is important to note that prices continued to slightly recover, posting small increases in 3Q14, in both regions, when compared to previous quarter;
  • Average unitary variable costs (per m3 ), when compared to the 9M13, were negatively impacted by the pressure felt in terms of wood costs both in the Iberian Peninsula and in France, which led to an increase of total unitary costs in both regions. In France, unitary variable costs posted an increase in 3Q14, when compared to previous quarter, driven by some pressure in energy and maintenance costs. On the other hand, Iberian Peninsula had a small reduction in average variable costs in the quarter, with the main benefit coming from lower cost of chemicals.
  • Still driven by the negative evolution experienced in the first quarter of the year, the recurrent EBITDA margin for the first nine months of the year in this segment was still below the previous year by 0.9 p.p. (to 2.5% in the 9M14). Nevertheless, it is important to highlight that recurrent EBITDA margin improved to 3.4% in the 3Q14, 2.3 p.p. above the same period of last year.

1.3. NORTHERN EUROPE

(a) Restated, consolidating the investment in the joint venture (Laminate Park) according to the Equity Method. *Turnover per region includes intercompany group sales (between regions)

Northern Europe continued to show in the third quarter an improved performance, driven by the continuous recovery of the construction market, as evidenced by the statistics for new house construction permits in Germany, which were up by 5%4 when compared to the previous year.

Comparing the 9M14 performance with the same period in 2013,the key highlights ofthe Northern Europe region are the following:

  • Turnover for this region decreased by 9%, impacted by a reduction of 9.7% in volumes sold, mainly explained by lower volumes of surfaced particleboard products (as a consequence of the stoppage of particleboard operations in Horn) and a reduced level of activity in the OSB production in Nettgau;
  • Average selling prices were up by 2.5%, when compared to same period of 2013, with important improvements in average selling prices of both particleboard and MDF. On a quarterly basis, average selling prices were also slightly up (+1.5%) in the 3Q14 when comparing with the previous quarter, notwithstanding the pricing pressure felt in terms of OSB products;
  • Average unitary variable costs (per m3 ) increased by circa 1.8% y.o.y. negatively impacted by higher wood and energy costs. On a quarterly basis, and when compared to the previous quarter, average unitary costs reduced by 3.5%, with positive contributions from all cost categories with the exception of maintenance costs.
  • An improved performance in the Recurrent EBITDA margin continued to be achieved in Northern Europe, reaching 9.2% in the first nine months of 2014, up by 3.6 p.p. when compared to the same period of 2013. In terms of quarterly evolution, Recurrent EBITDA margin showed important improvements during the last two quarters and has reached 10.3% in 3Q14.

1.4. REST OF THE WORLD (CANADA AND SOUTH AFRICA)

*Turnover per region includes intercompany group sales (between regions)

In 2014, the construction sector has had a mixed performance in North America, with the level of housing starts in the U.S. market growing by 8%5 when compared to the previous year, while in Canada this indicator has seen a slight deterioration during the same period (a decrease of 1.9%6 , when compared to same period of 2013). In the South African market, the level of residential building permitsincreased y.o.y. by 13.1%7 .

In terms of performance in the 9M14, and when compared to 9M13, the following highlights should be noted for these regions:

  • Consolidated turnover for the segment as a whole decreased by 3%, driven mainly by the exchange rate devaluation impact, as consolidated sales volumes for both regions have actually increased slightly (+2%);
  • The average selling prices registered a positive evolution in both geographies, when compared to the previous year, particularly in the Canadian operations, with positive contribution from a higher share of melamine volumes. When comparing the 3Q14 with the previous quarter, average selling prices have also registered an improved performance in both regions, again especially in Canada (up by 4.6%);
  • Average unitary variable costs (per m3 ), increased in both regions, when compared to the 9M13, driven by all cost categories in Canada and by higher wood, chemicals and energy costs in the South African operations. When compared to previous quarter, unitary variable costs were down in Canada, with the main impact coming from chemicals, and also improved in South Africa, in this case driven mainly by wood and chemical costs.
  • The combination of the above mentioned factors led to a 1.2 p.p. decrease in the recurrent EBITDA margin in the period, to 13.3%. On a quarterly basis, recurrent EBITDA margin reached 14.7% in this quarter, slightly below the 3Q13 (‐0.6 p.p.) but up by 1.6 p.p. against the 2Q14.

*Turnover per region includes intercompany group sales (between regions)

Consolidated EBITDA for 9M14 was 3 million Euros above the value of 9M13, due to the improvements achieved in the second and third quarters of the current year. Total EBITDA reached 65 million Euros (15 million Euros above the same period in 2013). Total EBITDA continued to be negatively impacted by the on‐going non‐recurrent costs associated with the discontinued sites and by additionalseverance payments related with on‐going restructuring measures. These costs were offset by the insurance settlement received during the 3Q14 related with the discontinued Knowsley plant in the UK, in a total amount of 13.2 million Euros (this final settlement amount was conditional upon certain investment targets, which have now been fulfilled by the investments being made at our Nettgau and Oliveira do Hospital plants). As indicated above, thissettlement had a positive impact on EBITDA in the 3Q14, fully compensating the non‐ recurrent costs with discontinued sites and restructuring measures, thus leading to a net effect of +3.6 million Euros in the non‐recurrent EBITDA during this quarter.

Recurrent EBITDA in the quarter was of 24 million Euros and 66 million Euros in the 9M14, 3 million Euros above the level registered in the same period in 2013. It should also be noted that the devaluation of both the CAD and ZAR had, in terms of Recurrent EBITDA, a combined negative impact of 2.9 million Euros, when compared to 9M13.

SONAE INDÚSTRIA ACTIVITY REPORT

Depreciation and amortizations costs for the quarter were 17 million Euros, slightly below the value registered in the 3Q13, as a result of asset sales completed between the two periods. It should be noted that, on the 9M14, tangible fixed assets depreciations related to "land and buildings" were up by 4 million Euros due to the revaluation of real estate carried out at the end of 2013.

Provisions and impairment losses registered in this quarter totalled a net amount of circa 3 million Euros and include: (i) an increase in provisions of approximately 7 million Euros for the Horn (Germany) restructuring process; and (ii) the utilization of existing provisions by 4 million Euros for payments mainly related with the on‐going restructuring processes in the central offices in France and in Pontecaldelas (Spain) plant.

Net Financial charges in 9M14 were lower by 2%, when compared to previous year, due to a lower level of net financial discounts and the positive contribution from net exchange rate differences. However, net interest expenses continued to increase, as a direct consequence of a higher average cost of debt, which stood at approximately 6.1% during the 9M14, 0.6 p.p. above the level registered in the 9M13.

Current tax chargesregistered in the 3Q14 amounted to 1.6 million Euros, in line with the levelsregistered in the previous quarters.

The combination of the above factors led to a consolidated Net loss of 9 million Euros in the quarter, an improvement of 2 million Euros when compared to the previous quarter and of 7 million Euros y.o.y..

2.2. CAPEX

Remark: The value of additions to fixed assets reported in 2014 includes the amounts booked under "advance payments to fixed asset suppliers". The historical data was adjusted accordingly for comparison purposes.

Additions to Fixed Tangible Assets reached 21 million Euros in the 3Q14, which compares with only 6 million Euros during 3Q13. A large part of the total year value (46 million Euros) of circa 21 million Euros is associated with the strategic investments in the increase of capacity of melamine production in our plants in Oliveira do Hospital (Portugal) and Nettgau (Germany), and in the enlargement of the wood recycling facilities in Nettgau. These investments are expected to be completed until the end of 2014. The phase of production tests have already started in the melamine lines at both plants.

From the total 46 million Euros invested during the 9M14, circa 25 million Euros are related with recurrent investments in maintenance and health & safety improvements.

(a) Restated, consolidating the investment in joint venture companies according to the Equity Method.

It should be noted that when comparing the end of the 9M14 with previous periods, the value of the company's consolidated assets and liabilities was impacted by the sale of the two French plants (Auxerre and Le Creusot), and by the sale of part of discontinued equipment of the Solsona site, which had a combined positive impact of circa 5 million Euros in gains on disposal of tangible fixed assets.

It also worth noting that, as investments in joint ventures are now consolidated under the Equity method, the net value of their assets and liabilities is now considered in "Other non‐current assets".

When compared to June 2014, consolidated working capital decreased by 3 million Euros to 93 million Euros as at the end of the 3Q14, due to the customary lower levels of activity that result from the usual seasonal operational maintenance shutdowns of most of our plants. When compared to September 2013, working capital decreased by 9 million Euros, partially as a result of the disposal of the two French plants.

Net debt was 13 million Euros above the value registered at the end of the 9M13 but decreased by 7 million Euros against the previous quarter, to 689 million Euros at the end of the 9M14, benefiting from the receivable from UK insurance settlement and improved operational profitability.

The combination of the higher recurrent EBITDA with the reduced level of Net Debt lead to an improvement of the Net Debt to Recurrent EBITDA ratio to 8.3x (vs. 8.9x at June 2014).

Total Shareholder's Funds at the end of September 2014 amounted to 81 million Euros and were negatively impacted by the net losses registered in the quarter (9 million Euros).

3. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On 28 October, Sonae Indústria announced the signature of refinancing agreements with main creditor banks (representing the majority of Sonae Indústria's consolidated gross debt). With these agreements, Sonae Indústria will achieve the refinancing of between 300 and 325 million Euros of debt (depending on the level of subscription for the planned capital increase), under significantly improved conditions, not only in terms of maturity profile (6 to 8 years final maturities, with a minimum 3 years grace period for principal repayments), but also in terms of cost of debt. Sonae Indústria also announced, on the same date, the signature of an agreement to extend its trade receivables securitisation facility, with a maximum amount of 85 million Euros, until 30 September 2016. The execution of these agreements is subject to the completion of the envisaged capital increase in an amount not less than 75 million Euros.

On 30 October , Sonae Indústria announced that the Board of Directors approved, with the favourable opinion of the Statutory Audit Board, the termsfor the planned capital increase of 150 million Euros, from the current 700 million Euros to 850 million Euros, limited to the subscriptions collected, with subscription in cash, through an offering of up to 15,000,000,000 new ordinary shares without nominal value, to be offered with pre‐emption rights for existing shareholders, to investors that acquire subscription rights and to the general public. Shares not subscribed under the Public Offer will be offered thereafter to institutional investors through a private placement. The subscription price was set at 0.01€ per share, at a ratio of 107.1428571428571 new ordinary shares for every 1 ordinary share held.

On 4 November, the Portuguese Securities Market Commission approved the prospectus for the public offering for subscription of up to 15,000,000,000 new shares, in accordance with applicable law. Sonae Indústria's majority shareholder, Efanor Investimentos, SGPS, S.A. has assumed the commitment to exercise, directly and through controlled subsidiaries, the respective pre‐emption rightsin the subscription of the current Share Capital Increase (circa 51% of Sonae Indústria's share capital).

4. LOOKING FORWARD

Forthe last quarter of this year, we expect to deliver a similar improving trend in performance as witnessed in the last two quarters. However, we will continue to face some challenges in terms of input prices and availability of wood. As such, the gradual economic recovery expected for Europe combined with the benefits of the strategic initiativesthat have been or are in the process of being implemented,should allow us to continue to achieve improved levels of operating profitability when compared to last year.

We aim to complete the implementation of the defined strategic plan, including the final efforts to adapt our industrial footprint and concentrate production in our more efficient and profitable plants, together with the on‐going initiatives to improve our product mix and streamline our cost structure.

SONAE INDÚSTRIA ACTIVITY REPORT

In terms of our capital structure, we expect to complete successfully the implementation of the share capital increase, which together with the signed refinancing agreements will allow usto achieve a material recapitalization of the business.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2014 (Amounts expressed in euros)

1. INTRODUCTION

SONAE INDÚSTRIA, SGPS, SA has its head-office at Lugar do Espido, Via Norte, Apartado 1096, 4470-909 Maia, Portugal.

The shares of the company are listed on Euronext Lisbon.

Consolidated financial statements for the periods ended 30 September 2014 and 30 June 2014 were subject to a limited revision carried out by the company's statutory external auditor.

Consolidated financial statements for the periods ended 30 September 2013 and 30 June 2013 were not subject to a limited revision by the company's statutory external auditor.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This set of consolidated financial statement has been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies that were disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2013, except for the accounting policy for recognition of investment in joint ventures, which was changed as referred to in notes 2.2.2 and 3.

2.1. Basis of Preparation

These consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting. As such, they do not include all the information which should be included in annual consolidated financial statements and therefore should be read in connection with the financial statements for fiscal year 2013.

2.2. Changes to accounting standards

These consolidated financial statements were prepared on the basis of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and with Interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRS IC), effective from 1 January 2014 and endorsed by the European Union.

2.2.1. In the period ended 30 September 2014 the following standards, effective in coming periods, had been issued but not still endorsed by the European Union:

IAS 19 (amendment), Employee Benefits (effective for periods beginning on or after 1 July 2014). This narrow scope amendment applies to contributions from employees or third parties to defined benefit plans. The objective of the amendment is to simplify the accounting for contributions that are independent of the number of years of employee service;

Annual improvements 2012 (effective for periods beginning on or after 1 July 2014). These amendments include changes from the 2010-12 cycle of the annual improvements project, that affect the following standards: IFRS 2, Share-based Payment, IFRS 3, Business Combinations, IFRS 8, Operating Segments, IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement, IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment, IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, IAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, and IAS 39, Financial Instruments – Recognition and Measurement;

Annual improvements 2013 (effective for periods beginning on or after 1 July 2014). The amendments include changes from the 2011-2013 cycle of the annual improvements project that affect 4 standards: IFRS 1, First Time Adoption, IFRS 3,

Business Combinations, IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement and IAS 40, Investment Property;

IFRS 11 (amendment), Joint Arrangements (effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016). This amendment adds new guidance on how to account for the acquisition of an interest in a joint operation that constitutes a business;

IAS 16 (amendment), Tangible Fixed Assets, and IAS 38 (amendment), Intangible Assets (effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016). In this amendment the IASB has clarified that the use of revenue-based methods to calculate the depreciation of an asset is not appropriate because revenue generated by an activity that includes the use of an asset generally reflects factors other than the consumption of the economic benefits embodied in the asset. The IASB has also clarified that revenue is generally presumed to be an inappropriate basis for measuring the consumption of the economic benefits embodied in an intangible asset;

IAS 27 (amendment), Separate Financial Statements (effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016). These amendments allow entities to use the equity method to account for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates in their separate financial statements;

IFRS 10 (amendment), Consolidated Financial Statements, and IAS 28 (amendment), Investment in Associates and Joint Ventures (effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016). These amendments address an inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 and those in IAS 28 in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The main consequence of the amendments is that a full gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not). A partial gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves assets that do not constitute a business, even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary;

IFRS 9 (new), Financial Instruments (effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018). This standard replaces the guidance in IAS 39. It includes requirements on the classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities; it also includes an expected credit losses model that replaces the current incurred loss impairment model;

IFRS 14 (new), Regulatory Deferral Accounts (applicable for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016). This standard allows first-time adopting entities to keep recognizing regulatory assets and liabilities according to the accounting policy used in

the former standards. However, to enhance comparability with entities using IFRSs, which do not recognize regulatory assets or liabilities, the amounts thereon must be separately disclosed on the financial statements;

IFRS 15 (new), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017). This new standard applies only to contracts with customers to provide goods or services, and requires an entity to recognise revenue when the contractual obligation to deliver goods or services is fulfilled and for the amount that reflects the consideration the entity is expected to be entitled to, following a five step approach;

IFRIC 21 (new), 'Levies' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 17 June 2014). Interpretation to IAS 37 and the recognition of a liability, clarifying that the obligation event that gives rise to a liability to pay a levy is the activity described in the relevant legislation that triggers the payment.

The Company does not estimate any significant effect to arise from the application of these standards.

2.2.2. During the period ended 30 September 2014 the following accounting standards, which were issued and endorsed by the European Union by 31 December 2013, became effective:

IFRS 10 (new), Consolidated Financial Statements. IFRS 10 replaces all principles related to control and consolidation included in IAS 27 and SIC 12 by changing the definition of control and the criteria to be used for identifying control. The core principle that a consolidated entity presents a parent and its subsidiaries as a single entity remains unchanged;

IFRS 11 (new), Joint Arrangements. IFRS 11 focus on rights and obligations arising from joint arrangements rather than on legal form. Joint arrangements may consist of joint operations (rights to the assets and obligations) or joint ventures (rights to the net assets recognized using the equity method). Proportionate consolidation is no longer allowed to measure joint controlled entities;

IFRS 12 (new), Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities. This standard sets out disclosure requirements for all types of interests in other entities, including subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and specific purpose entities, in order to assess the nature, risks and financial effects related to interest in other entities;

Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12, Transition Guidance. This amendment clarifies that when the accounting treatment of financial investments under IFRS 10 is different from the one under the former IAS 27/SRC 12, comparative information must only be re-presented for the immediately preceding period. Any differences arising must be recognized through net equity at beginning date of the comparative period. Specific disclosure requirements are included in IFRS 12;

IAS 27 (amended 2011), Separate Financial Statements. IAS 27 was amended after IFRS 10 was issued and contains the recognition and disclosure requirements for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates of entities that prepare separate financial statements;

IAS 28 (amended 2011), Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. IAS 28 was amended after IFRS 11 was issued and now includes the accounting treatment for investments in associates and joint ventures as well as the requirements for applying the equity method;

IAS 32 (amendment), Financial Instruments: Presentation – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial liabilities. This amendment is part of IASB's project for offsetting assets and liabilities, and aims to clarify the statement "have the right to receive or pay a single net amount". It further clarifies that some systems settling two financial instruments (clearing houses) may be equivalent to settlement of a single amount;

IAS 36 (amendment), Recoverable amount disclosures for non-financial assets. This amendment refers to disclosure requirements of impaired assets for which recoverable amounts were measured for fair value less estimated costs to sell;

IAS 39 (amendment), Novation of derivatives and continuation of hedge accounting. This amendment allows an entity to keep applying hedge accounting for a derivative that was designated as a hedging instrument, when a law or regulation transfers the counterparty rights to a clearing house;;

Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 27, Investment entities. This amendment defines investment entities, which are exempted from applying IFRS 10 to investments in subsidiaries. These ones should be measured at fair value through profit or loss, in accordance with IAS 39. Specific disclosure requirements are included in IFRS 12.

Effects arising from the application of these standards are detailed in note 3.

3. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

3.1. Joint ventures

On these consolidated financial statements, investment in joint ventures is measured using equity method (EQ). Until 31 December 2013, joint ventures were included in consolidation using the proportionate consolidation method (PROP). As a consequence of this change to equity method, information for the comparative period was restated.

Effects on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position for the comparative period arising from this change are as follows:

25. GOODWILL

In the period ended 30 September 2014, Goodwill stated on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position has not changed significantly.

Although performance expected for year 2014 may be lower than forecast, the Company still expects to meet the projections which were used to calculate the value in use of the Group's cash generating units at 31 December 2013. Presently, budget for 2015 and reassessment of projections to use in impairment tests to be carried out at the end of 2014 are under way.

26. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On 4 November 2014, Sonae Indústria, SGPS, SA filed at CMVM – Comissão do Mercado de Valores Mobiliários (The Portuguese Stock Exchange Commission) the prospectus for an offer of public subscription for 15 000 000 000 (fifteen billion) ordinary, dematerialized and registered shares, without nominal value, which will originate a share capital increase from its present amount of EUR 700 million to a maximum amount of EUR 850 million. The new shares may be subscribed for in the period from 11 to 24 November 2014.

Formalizing the aforementioned offer of public subscription enabled the Company to close refinancing agreements with two of the Group's main creditor banks, for an amount ranging from EUR 300 to 325 million, which will depend on the result of the offer of public subscription. These refinancing agreements include significantly more favourable conditions, both in terms of maturity profile and in terms of cost of debt, and are subject to financial covenants consisting in an equity ratio (net shareholders' funds / total net assets), to be calculated annually from 31 December 2015, of at least 10%, adjustable if ongoing increase in share capital does not reach its maximum amount of EUR 150 million.

In addition, Sonae Indústria reached an agreement to extend until 30 September 2016 the renewal of the securitization facility of trade debtors, which is described on note 15.3, with a maximum amount of EUR 85 million, and to postpone to 30 October 2015 the maturity of the loan described in 15.1, h).

Taking into consideration debt at 30 September 2014, as disclosed on note 15, the refinancing for EUR 300 million, which corresponds to a maximum increase of share capital for EUR 150 million, and the extension of the renewal of the securitization facility will affect the maturity profile of existing debt as follows:

Total net debt 689 296 033 689 296 033

Furthermore, under these refinancing agreements the Company is committed to deploy funds from the increase in share capital to repay bank loans for an amount ranging from EUR 31.7 to 56.7 million, and to repay loans from related parties for EUR 16.7 million (both effects not included in the table above).

The aforementioned agreements will be effective depending on a capital increase for a minimum amount of EUR 75 million, which Efanor Investimentos, SGPS, SA, Sonae Indústria's majority shareholder, is presently committed to.

The settlement of these refinancing agreements involved the mortgage of tangible fixed assets amounting to EUR 119 434 758, which adds up to the amount disclosed on note 8, as well as a pledge on the shares of the subsidiary Glunz AG.

The company assumes that the aforementioned restructuring operation of its financing structure, on the basis of a double vector of debt reschedule and equity strengthening, will bring about improved conditions that will enable, even in the possibility of a minimum capital increase of EUR 75 million, to find the best financing solutions for its debt maturing in 2015, if it is regarded as adequate and necessary.

LIMITED REVIEW REPORT

Limited Review Report Prepared by Auditor Registered with the Securities Market Commission (CMVM) on the Consolidated Third Quarter Information

(Free translation from the original in Portuguese)

Introduction

1 In accordance with the Portuguese Securities Market Code (CVM), we present our limited review report on the consolidated financial information for the nine-month period ended 30 September 2014 of Sonae Indústria, SGPS, SA. included in the consolidated Directors' Report, consolidated statement of financial position (which shows total assets of Euro 1,228,766,736 and total shareholders' equity of Euro 81,484,081, including negative non-controlling interests of Euro 145,498 and a net loss of Euro 47,372,348), consolidated income statement by nature, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the period then ended, and the corresponding notes to the accounts.

2 The amounts in the consolidated financial statements, as well as those in the additional financial information, are derived from the respective accounting records.

Responsibilities

3 It is the responsibility of the Board of Directors: (a) to prepare consolidated financial information which present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the companies included in the consolidation, the consolidated results and the consolidated comprehensive income of their operations, the changes in consolidated equity and the consolidated cash flows; (b) to prepare historical financial information in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union and which is complete, true, up-to-date, clear, objective and lawful as required by the CVM; (c) to adopt appropriate accounting policies and criteria; (d) to maintain appropriate systems of internal control; and (e) to disclose any significant matters which have influenced the activity, financial position or results.

4 Our responsibility is to verify the financial information included in the documents referred to above, namely as to whether it is complete, true, up-to-date, clear, objective and lawful, as required by the CVM, for the purpose of issuing an independent and professional report based on our work.

Scope

5 Our work was performed with the objective of obtaining moderate assurance about whether the financial information referred to above is free from material misstatement. Our work was performed in accordance with the Standards and Technical Recommendations issued by the Institute of Statutory Auditors, planned according to that objective, and consisted primarily, in enquiries and analytical procedures, to review: (i) the reliability of the assertions included in the financial information; (ii) the appropriateness and consistency of the accounting principles used, as applicable; (iii) the applicability, or not, of the going concern basis of accounting; (iv) the presentation of the financial information; and (v) as to whether the consolidated financial information is complete, true, up-to-date, clear, objective and lawful.

6 Our work also covered the verification that the consolidated financial information included in the consolidated Directors' Report is consistent with the remaining documents referred to above.

7 We believe that the work performed provides a reasonable basis for the issue of this limited review report on the third quarter information.

Conclusions

8 Based on the work, which was performed with the objective of obtaining a moderate level of assurance, nothing has come to our attention that leads us to conclude that the consolidated financial information for the nine-month period ended 30 September 2014 contain material misstatements that affect its conformity with International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union and that it is not complete, true, up-to-date, clear, objective and lawful.

Report on other requirements

9 Based on the work, nothing has come to our attention that leads us to believe that the consolidated financial information included in the consolidated Directors' Report is not consistent with the consolidated financial information for the period.

Emphasizes

10 Without qualifying our conclusions expressed in paragraph nº 9 above, we draw attention to the following facts:

  • As interim financial reporting is not usually submitted to a limited review nor legally required, the financial information included in the consolidated Director's report and financial statements as at 30 September 2013 have not been subject to any audit nor limited review, as such, we do not conclude about the comparatives at that date;

  • As referred to in the Note 26 of the Notes to the consolidated financial statements, refinancing agreements with some financial institutions have been achieved and a capital raise with an equity inflow of a maximum of 150 million euros and a minimum of 75 million euros guaranteed is ongoing. Thus, the group's ability to solve its commitments after the partial debt restructuring depends on the outcome of the capital increase and/or the renegotiation of the remaining debt with its creditors, as well as its operational performance.

  • As referred to in the Note 25 of the Notes to the consolidated financial statements, although the performance in 2014 is lower than expected, the projections used in the preparation of the 2013 consolidated financial statements are expected not to be affected. The group is in the process of preparing the 2015 budget and the business plan to be used for the impairment testing at the year end. As a result, the recoverability of the goodwill of the Iberian Peninsula cash generating unit, amounting to 71 million euros, depends on the maintaining/achieving of those assumptions.
