1 HIGHLIGHTS and CEO's message

  • Sonae consolidated turnover increased 4.4%, to €2,431 M
  • Sonae international revenues grew 13.6% y.o.y.
  • Sonae MC increased turnover by 3.6%, corresponding to +0.4% LfL sales growth
  • Worten improved EBITDA by €2 M
  • Sonae Sierra disposed of 14 mature assets, paid dividends in the amount of €49 M and refinanced €260 M of debt
  • NOS continued to profitably gain market share, increasing turnover by 6.2% and EBITDA by 7.6%

"During the second quarter, Sonae witnessed significant achievements regarding the strategy implementation for its businesses. We continued to grow in retail and telecommunications segments, completed targeted acquisitions in Salsa and in the technology area, proceeded with the recycling capital strategy and reinforced investment in new shopping centres.

In operational terms, results are globally positive, although reflecting distinct realities in the different businesses. NOS and Sonae Sierra reported another good quarter, as well as Sonae MC, which ensured the strengthening of its market leadership, while consolidating its position as the player with the lowest prices, within benchmark levels of profitability.

Worten also increased its profitability and maintained a good turnover performance, in a seasonal weaker quarter in comparison with the previous year, due to the Easter effect. In the Sports and Fashion division, results were less positive, as they were affected both by the unfavourable weather conditions and by exchange currency effects.

On a consolidated level, EBTIDA reduction is more than explained by the lower contribution of Sonae RP, reflecting the sale of assets carried out over the last 12 months.

Despite the high levels of investment recorded this semester, debt continued to decline year on year, leading to the maintenance of an adequate level of financial strength, which coupled with the increasing quality of our teams, allow us to face with optimism the challenges that our strategic ambition brings."

Ângelo Paupério, Co-CEO

Following the merger between Optimus and Zon and the further creation of NOS, and ZOPT, which is reported using the equity method, Sonae decided to change the way results are reported to the market by separating each business in order to obtain more transparency between the segments: 1) Sonae MC, Sonae SR and Sonae RP; 2) Sonae IM, including Technology business and Partnerships (MDS, Maxmat, Tlantic and Publico); 3) Sonae Sierra; and, 4) NOS.

Sonae consolidated turnover reached €2,431 M, representing a growth of 4.4% when compared to 1H15, benefiting from the positive performance of MC and SR, which has more than compensated the lower turnover of RP, resulting from sale and leaseback transactions over the course of 2015 and in 1Q16.

Sonae underlying EBITDA margin declined to 4.6%, driven by lower RP revenues as a result of the sale and leaseback transactions and the promotional activity at MC.

Sonae EBITDA reached €190 M, equivalent to an EBITDA margin of 7.8% and includes the following contributions:

  • (i) underlying EBITDA, amounting to €111 M;
  • (ii) equity method results of €23 M, made up of Sierra's direct results, as well as NOS contribution; and,
  • (iii) non-recurrent items of €55 M, benefiting mostly from the capital gains related to the sale and leaseback transactions completed in 1Q16.

Driven by the combination of the lower average net debt and in particular by the lower cost of outstanding debt, Sonae net financial activity improved by €10 M, registering a negative €26 M in 1H16.

Sonae continued to focus on increasing the average maturity of its debt and decreasing the average interest rate of outstanding debt, which reached 1.6% on June 30th 2016. It should be noted that Sonae financial results exclude Sonae Sierra and NOS businesses.

Sonae direct results amounted to €66 M, increasing 18.7% on a yearly basis. Despite the lower EBIT, this was driven by less negative net financial results and taxes.

Sonae indirect results reached €11 M, including the positive effect of the valuation of Sierra's assets and the capital gain related to the sale of the 2.14% direct stake at NOS capital on June 15th 2016. Year on year, the contribution of indirect results was smaller driven by the negative mark-to-market effect of NOS (negative €16 M) and the lower contribution of Sierra's upward asset valuation (from €26 M to €16 M).

Sonae shareholders' funds stood at €1,939 M in 1H16, €103 M above 1H15. Sonae net debt reached €1,389 M in 1H16, decreasing 1.7% in comparison to 1H15.

Average gearing at book value reached 0.7x, decreasing 0.1x in comparison with 1H15. Average gearing at market value stood at 0.7x, increasing y.o.y. driven by Sonae's market price, as net debt evolution has remained largely unchanged.

Sonae continues to focus on presenting a robust capital structure, supported by low leverage and an improved maturity profile. No funding needs are expected for the next 18 months and more importantly, this capital structure guarantees the necessary financial strength to explore future growth opportunities.

Net financial debt of MC, SR and RP stood at €836 M in 1H16, €79 M above 1H15, driven by the cash-out related to the acquisition of 50% of Salsa, coupled with the consolidation of Salsa's debt. The net debt to EBITDA at MC, SR and RP stood at 2.3x, increasing when compared to 1H15, driven by the higher net debt.

Holding net debt reached €538 M, decreasing 10.4% y.o.y. and benefiting from the sale of the direct participation at NOS. Loan-to-value ratio of the holding stood at 13%, stable in relation to 1H15, despite the lower holding net debt.

Sonae Capex increased from €116 M to €208 M, mostly due to Sonae SR:

  • MC Capex increased €19 M to €69 M, which includes the opening of 7 Continente Bom Dia, 1 Continente hypermarket and 6 Well's stores;

  • SR Capex reached €102 M in 1H16, growing materially y.o.y. mostly impacted by the Capex related to the acquisition of Salsa, which occurred on June 30th 2016;

  • RP Capex totalled €28 M in 1H16, in comparison to a value of €30 M in 1H15;

  • IM Capex reached €7 M in 1H16, increasing €2 M when compared to 1H15.

Turnover and Underlying EBITDA evolution

MC turnover reached €1,691 M in 1H16, posting an increase of 3.6% when compared to 1H15, and continuing to reinforce Sonae's market share in a very mature and competitive market. This performance was backed by the opening of new convenience stores, of which we would like to highlight 7 Continente Bom Dia and 37 Meu Super stores.

MC LfL sales performance totalled 0.4% in 1H16, -1.8% in 1H15. In 2Q16, LfL sales growth totalled -0.4%, driven by the calendar effect. The calendar effect in 2Q16 was slightly negative when compared to 2Q15, as a result of Easter falling in 1Q16 (and 2Q15).

MC underlying EBITDA stood at €81 M, corresponding to an underlying EBITDA margin of 4.8%, less 50bps when compared to 1H15, reflecting MC 's continued investment in price and market share growth. In addition to these effects, the opening of Bom Dia and Meu Super stores also has a short-term negative impact on MC's EBITDA margin.

MC underlying EBITDA margin before internal rents stood at 7.2% in 2Q16.

MC remained focused on reinforcing its value proposition, improving perception on price and quality of perishables and launching innovative price campaigns, along with the implementation of its programme for the expansion of local convenience and close proximity stores.

At the end of the semester, DECO, the Portuguese Consumers' Association, published the results of its most recent price survey covering the entire country, ranking Continente first in price leadership. This is an important achievement that recognises one of MC's most relevant areas of focus.

Turnover and Underlying EBITDA evolution

SR turnover stood at €614 M in 1H16, an increase of 5.5% when compared to 1H15. This evolution was driven by both SR divisions, which continued to show clear improvements in sales per sqm.

At Worten, turnover grew by 1.4%, to €404 M, backed by a positive performance in Portugal, consolidating market share in the context of a slight market growth, and a continuous recovery in Spain, where sales per sqm continued to grow driven by the store network optimisation, despite a less favourable market context so far (overall market decreasing and online market decelerating).

In Sports and Fashion, turnover grew by 14.6%, to €210 M. This growth was mostly driven by the inclusion of Losan and, to a lesser extent, Zippy's very positive performance in Portugal. Sales per sqm (excluding wholesale business, namely Losan) resumed growth, supported by significant improvement at Zippy, as well as positive developments at Sport Zone. This evolution was achieved in the context of, once again, adverse weather conditions, which had an impact on the Spring-Summer '16 collections in the fashion sector as a whole in Iberia.

SR EBITDA reached negative €8 M in 1H16, posting an improvement of 30.9% y.o.y., driven by both SR divisions.

At Worten, EBITDA improved €2 M, now standing at €3 M in 1H16, with both the Portuguese and Spanish operations contributing positively to this evolution. In Spain, the 2Q16 confirmed the positive trend registered since February (following the 1Q16, where performance was constrained by a disappointing January) and continued to reap the benefits and reinforced store network optimisation efforts. Both in Portugal and in Spain, omnichannel continues to be at the core of Worten's development and at the end of 1H16 these sales represented 25.3% of total turnover. Online sales grew by 4.2% in Iberia, backed by a growth of 22.9% in 2Q16, and Worten became the first electronics specialist to have a digital transactional platform in the Canary Islands.

In Sports and Fashion, EBITDA evolved from negative €12 M to negative €11 M. Despite the positive turnover performance, EBITDA evolution was hindered by MO's negative contribution. Sport Zone continued to register a positive y.o.y. EBITDA contribution (before central fees) in Spain, consolidating the improvements registered in the last 2 years.

SR completed the acquisition of 50% of Salsa's capital in 2Q16, hence starting a promising partnership in an internationally renowned Portuguese jeanswear specialist. Salsa's results will be consolidated in SR accounts from 3Q16 onwards.

Zippy continued to expand its international presence and entered Cyprus in 2Q16. Through own stores, franchising and wholesale, Zippy's products are currently available in approximately 40 countries.

RP turnover decreased 27.0%, to €47 M, driven mostly by freehold reduction at MC, from 63% in 1H15, to 51% at the end of 1H16. The underlying EBITDA amounted to €41 M, corresponding to an underlying EBITDA margin of 87.8%.

Net book value of the capital invested in real estate assets amounted to €888 M at the end of 1H16.

RP completed 3 sale and leaseback transactions in the amount of €230 M in 1H16, equivalent to a capital gain of approximately €63 M. This strategy enabled releasing capital from mature real estate assets while also maintaining adequate operational flexibility.

MC's freehold is now at 51%, moving closer to the stated target freehold level of 50%. At the end of 1H16, MC's real estate portfolio included 22 Continente stores, 62 Continente Modelo stores and 20 Continente Bom Dia stores. As for SR's freehold, it stood at 22% as of 1H16.

Tenant sales in Europe increased 2.5%, to €1,439 M, corresponding to an increase in LfL tenant sales of 3.9%. The tenant sales in Brazil reached 0.0% in LfL terms.

Occupancy rates stood at 96.1%, backed by a strong performance in Europe, notwithstanding the performance in Brazil, impacted by the challenging macroeconomic environment.

Sierra's turnover reached €100 M, a decrease of 7.7% when compared to 1H15, driven by the execution of Sierra's capital recycling strategy. We would also like to highlight asset disposals such as Colombo Tower (Portugal), Zubiarte (Spain), Loop 5 (Germany), Boavista Shopping (Brazil), the 25% dilution in the Sierra Portugal Fund, and the recent dilution in the ownership of AlgarveShopping, Estação Viana Shopping and Luz del Tajo (following the closing of the partnership with CBRE Global Investment Partners). The adverse exchange rate effect of the Brazilian Real against the Euro (average rate 6M16 vis-àvis average rate 6M15) has also had a negative impact on turnover performance. The EBIT stood at €47 M, less 5.9% y.o.y., corresponding to an EBIT margin of 47.2%. Excluding the portfolio changes and the exchange rate effect mentioned previously, EBIT increased 11% as a consequence of higher rental income and higher services rendered mainly to clients outside Sierra's shopping centre portfolio.

Direct results amounted to €27 M, with no change in comparison to 1H15 and indirect results reached €32 M, benefiting from the capital gains of disposals and from the increased asset valuations that occurred at the end of the semester, driven by operational improvements and yields compression in Iberia.

Sierra currently has 6 projects under development: ParkLake (Romania), Nuremberg (Germany), Zenata (Morocco), Malaga Designer Outlet (Spain), NorteShopping Expansion (Portugal) and Cucuta (Colombia). ParkLake will be inaugurated in September 2016 and will comprise of a GLA of 70,000 sqm with over 200 shops, representing an investment of €180 M.

On June 30th 2016, the Investment and Development Properties attributable to Sierra reached €1.919 bn, €209 M below the 2015 year-end, driven by the effect of the disposals, which more than off-set the investment in the pipeline of projects under development and the positive exchange rate effect (closing rate 6M16 vis-à-vis closing rate 12M15).

NAV (Net Asset Value) reached €1.244 bn at the end of 1H16, €64 M above December 2015, reflecting the direct results of the period, the favourable exchange rate effect less the dividends payment.

In 1H16, Sierra was able to refinance approximately €260 M of its debt facilities, improving credit conditions such as the cost and the debt's average maturity. Loan-to-value reached 30% in 1H16, compared to a value of 40% in 1H15, reflecting the effect of the cash received from the recent asset disposals.

On 30 June 2016, are included in "Other investments", among others 9,985,498 euro (9,996,932 euro as at 31 December 2015), 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 Sonae Distribuição Brazil 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 2015 as it was considered that there are no material valuation differences. The financial participation in Cooper Gay Sweet & Crawford Ltd was measured at its fair value as at 31 December 2015 taking into consideration the multiples of EBITDA or multiples of sales by region and the transaction price of the United States of America operation sold in February 2016. The value of Cooper Gay Sweet & Crawford Ltd is net of impairment in the value of 1,517,355 euro.

of 18,725,887, that 50% of this gain were annulled through investments in associated companies and companies jointly controlled, according to the defined in IAS 28 - Investments in associates and, the other 50% registered in Gains and losses on investments recorded at fair value through profit. Additionally, the transaction also gave impact on equity of about 9 million euros, recorded under the caption effect of equity and non-controlling interests by reducing the fair value of 2.14% (Note 5.4).

The amount of increase / (decrease) in fair value under the caption "Other current investments" on current asset, is mainly associated with the registration to the fair value of the participation on NOS in the amount of - 15,681,846 euros (21,342,2871 euros in 30 June 2015). The fair value of this investment is determined based on the price of NOS shares and the respective changes are recorded in the consolidated income statement.

On 30 June 2016, the "Decreases during the period" in other current assets correspond to the sale of direct participation in Sonaecom NOS (2.14%) for ZOPT. To determine the fair value of NOS shares on the date of the sale, it was used the day's closing price 14 June 2016 (5.822).

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.

Cash Settled Equity Swap

On 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 capital.

This transaction has 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 the group maintains the risks and rewards arising on the instruments sold.

Consequently, Sonae maintains in its capital acquisition cost of the shares that remain covered by the contract.

In November 2014, was made a renewal for an additional period of one year renewable automatically, keeping the remaining conditions unchanged.

Considering the operations mentioned above, the amount of the liability recorded amounts to 102,821,254 euro (Note 23) (103,602,523 euro as at 31 December 2015) reflecting the market value of 111,158,112 Sonae Holding shares (118,663,355 shares as at 31 December 2015).

The value of these liabilities is adjusted at the end of each month by the effect of Sonae Holding share price variation being recognized an asset / liabilities current in order to present the right / obligation related to the receipt / financial liquidation that occurs on a monthly basis.

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.

In June 2014 a subsidiary of Sonae SGPS, SA issued bonds which may be convertible (Sonae Investments BV 2014/2019) in Sonae shares already issued and fully subscribed or to be later on issued.

The fair value of the Equity component of this compound instrument was valued at 22,313,000 euro and it was determined by an independent entity from Sonae, taking into consideration the fair value of similar non- convertible financial instruments, having been estimated a market interest rate to establish the amortized cost of this financial liability. The liability component is recorded at the amortized cost based on the market rate.

The Bonds were issued at par with a nominal value of 100,000 euro (2.105 euro per bond) with a maturity of 5 years and with a fixed coupon of 1.625% per year, paid in arrears and semi-annually.

The bonds can be converted at the request of the bondholder when the quote of Sonae SGPS, SA, in accordance with the technical data sheet, exceeds 1.656 euros per share, which price is subject to

adjustments in accordance with market practices, in particular when the dividend exceeds 0.0287 euros per share.

It is estimated that the book value of all loans does not differ significantly from its fair value, determined based on discounted cash flow methodology, with the exception of the convertible bond loan into shares whose fair value is determined by the market price at the balance sheet date.

Bonds and bank loans bear an average interest rate of 1.60% as at 30 June 2016 (2.05% as at 31 December 2015). Most of the bonds and bank loans have variable interest rates indexed to Euribor.

The derivatives are recorded at fair value (Note 20).

20 DERIVATIVES

Exchange rate derivatives

Sonae uses exchange rate derivatives, essentially to hedge future cash flows that occur in the next 12 months.

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

The fair value of exchange rate derivatives hedging instruments, calculated based on present market value of equivalent financial instruments of exchange rate, is 686,475 euro as liabilities (860,503 euro as at 31 December 2015) and 1,524,383 euro as assets (1,983,962 euro as at 31 December 2015).

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

Sonae does not have any interest rate hedging derivatives recorded as at 30 June 2016.

Interest rate and exchange rate derivatives

As at 30 June 2016 no contracts existed related to interest rate and exchange rate derivatives at the same time.

31 PRESENTATION OF CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENTS

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 and EBIT are 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 June 2016 and 2015 can be summarised as follows:
