Head Office: R. João Mendonça, 529 - 4464-501 SENHORA DA HORA
Porto Commercial Registry and Fiscal Number 501 532 927
In accordance with Portuguese Law and the company's articles of association, we hereby present the management report of Sonae Distribuição - S.G.P.S., S.A. (previously called Modelo Continente, SGPS, S.A.) for the quarter ending 31 March 2008.
Sonae Distribuição ended the 1st quarter of 2008 with consolidated turnover of 927 million Euro, equal to an increase of 28% compared to the same period of last year. The following factors contributed decisively towards this important increase in sales:
We note that in the period under consideration, turnover of food retail brands totalled 646 million Euro, up 23% compared to the same period of last year, while that of the non food retail segment was 247 million Euro, an increase of 24%. Taking the two segments together, the company's retail brand portfolio had total turnover of 893 million Euro, equal to an increase of 24% over the same quarter of 2007.
In addition, turnover from the petrol stations located in the car parks of the ex Carrefour hypermarkets contributed an extra 4% to the consolidated turnover of the company compared to the same period of last year.
Against a background of very demanding market conditions, marked by the continuation of strong growth in supply(1) and economic slowdown, the company's consolidated operational cash flow totalled 49 million Euro in the first three months of 2008.
This amount includes 9 million Euro of non recurring profits from the sale of a real estate asset in Florianópolis (Brazil), not included in the divestment transaction that took place at the end of 2005. On the other hand, the figure for the same period of 2007 was positively impacted by a net non recurring capital gain of 12 million Euro, resulting from the sale of the real estate assets of the Albufeira and Portimão shopping galleries in Portugal. Excluding both of the above impacts, recurring consolidated operational cash flow totalled 40 million Euro (4.3% of related turnover), which compares positively with 2007 (34 million Euro, equal to 4.7% of turnover), an increase of 18%.
A more detailed analysis of the business segments of the Company shows a contribution of 30 million Euro from all food based retail brands towards the consolidated operational cash flow of the company. This was equal to 4.6% of related turnover, 0.4 p.p. below the same figure for the same period of last year. During the same period, non food retail brands added 7.5 million Euros to the company's consolidated operational cash flow, equal to 3.0% of related turnover (-0.5 p.p. compared to the same period of 2007).
It is also important to note that the trend of the above key profitability indicators combines:
The figures have also been impacted by the investment in the ex Carrefour stores, which, in line with forecasts made, and because of this, had operational cash flow margins at lower levels than reference company food segment averages during the quarter.
1 Measured in m2 of sales area.
The company's net consolidated profits for the first quarter of the year totalled 9 million Euro, comparing with the 15 million Euro of the same period of 2007. The fall arose mainly from non recurring events relating to the disposal of real estate assets mentioned above, as well as a more significant component of financial charges.
Sonae Distribuição ended the 1st quarter of 2008 with 655 stores, including 10 units (5,000 m2 of sales area) inaugurated during the first three months of the year. In this context, the company reaffirms its goal of increasing the store network during 2008 with more than 60,000 new m2 of sales area compared to that as at 31 December 2007.
Up to the end of March, the Company had already invested 56 million Euro of the 300 million Euro planned for the year, focused not only on new store openings, but also on the refurbishment of less recent units and the development of the logistics architecture of the Company.
Already in April, the Company successfully opened its first Sportzone store of 2008 in Spain (Madrid), with three more new units planned in this country during the year.
As at 31 March 2008, the consolidated net debt of the Company was 1,276 million Euro. This figure is 735 million Euro higher than that reported at the end of the first quarter of last year, and has been directly impacted by the heavy investment plan, which over the last 12 months totalled more than 1,000 million Euro, to support the company's growth both organically and through acquisitions (in particular through the acquisition of the ex Carrefour (Portugal) units).
Sonae Distribuição restates the outlook for the current year, which has already been disclosed, based on a turnover growth rate of over 20%(2), the continuation of the operational profitability margin of the company(2) and investment of around 300 million Euro in the year.
2 Excluding sales from petrol station sales, which are awaiting a favourable decision from the Competition Authority in order to definitively transfer their operation to GALP, as part of the agreement signed at the beginning of the year and duly disclosed to the market.
The company will continue its strong pace of organic growth as a way of consolidating its leadership of the Portuguese market. To that end, it reaffirms its goal of increasing its store network throughout 2008 with more than 60,000 new m2 of sales area compared to that reported as at 31 December 2007, while at the same time remaining alert to possible merger and acquisition opportunities that may arise. This objective is part of the ambitious expansion programme presented by Sonae Distribuição for the three year period 2008-2010, which forecasts a significant growth in sale area of above 40%, at the end of which the sales area will be around 1 million m2.
The company will also follow its strategy of "synergetic format development", an example of which will be the opening of the 1st store of its new casual footwear brand "Loop" in the next few weeks.
The year will also be marked by the expansion of the business to Spain, in which 4 Sportzone units will be opened up until the end of the year. The company is also analysing other markets in which it is considering starting business through its portfolio of formats.
At the same time, Sonae Distribuição will continue to strengthen its value proposal through continued investment in process and Customer relationship innovation, contributing as in the past towards strengthening the image of the Company and Consumer recognition.

| 31.03.2008 | 31.12.2007 | |
|---|---|---|
| Assets (Note 8) | - | 1,971 |
| Liabilities (Note 14) | ( 322,355) | ( 281,123) |
| ( 322,355) | ( 279,152) |

As at 31 March 2008, the interest rate derivatives used by the Group, refer, mainly, to swaps. These were negotiated to hedge the interest rate risk inherent to bank loans obtained by the group. According to the accounting policies adopted, these derivatives fulfil the requirements to be classified as hedging instruments.
Its fair value amounts to:
| 31.03.2008 | 31.12.2007 | |
|---|---|---|
| Assets Liabilities |
289,496 | 1,113,658 |
| - 289,496 |
- 1,113,658 |
|
These interest rate derivatives are valued at fair value, at the balance sheet date, based on valuations performed by the Group using specific software and on external valuations when this software does not deal specific instruments. The fair value of the swaps was calculated, as at the balance sheet date, based on the discounted cash flow of the difference between the fixed interest rate of the fixed leg and the indexed variable interest rate inherent to the variable leg.
Counterparts issuing derivative financial instruments are selected based on its financial strength and credit risk established by internationally recognized rating agencies. These counterparts are nationally and internationally recognized first class financial institutions.
