MESSAGE OF THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Dear Shareholders,

The financial period presented herein covers the period between 1 July 2016 and 30 June 2017, corresponding to sports season 16/17.

In the period under review, it is necessary to highlight the regress of the professional men's football team of Sporting Clube de Portugal to the group phase of UEFA Champions League, with significant, not only by the sport perspective, but also by the reputational and financial positive impact of this participation.

In European terms, the group phase of UEFA Champions League played in this period had the following opponent's for Sporting Clube de Portugal: the European Champion, Real Madrid that has renewed the title, Borussia Dortmund and Legia Warsaw. Despite of the excellent exhibitions with the Spanish and German clubs, the sports results didn't follow these exhibitions with the correspondent elimination of the European competitions at the end of this group stage.

Concerning to the Portuguese League of the sports season 16/17, at sports terms and analysis, the final place of our team fell fall short for the goals appointed, finishing at third (3rd) of the general classification. Although of this disappointing place, this classification allowed the presence for the Playoff UEFA Champions League for access for UEFA Champions League. This playoff was played in a posterior period to the present fiscal year. The draw appointed the Romanian Champion Steaua Bucharest as opponent. The first leg was played in José Alvalade and the second leg at Romania. Sporting Clube de Portugal won this payoff and achieve the UEFA Champions League Group Stage by an aggregate result of 5-1, fully reached in the second leg.

The draw for this group stage dictates our presence in D Group with other giant clubs: the Italian champion and European runner-up, Juventus; the European Champions League semifinalist, Barcelona; and the Greek champion, Olympiacos from Athens.

Regarding player transfers, concerning players sales, the period of this report, records the highest value made in the history of the SAD which, as is known, formed two FIFA Golden Balls, Figo and Cristiano Ronaldo. This results especially from João Mário, Slimani and Rúben Semedo transactions, where the added value from this three players was almost 70,000 thousand Euros. It is also important to highlight the return of the women's football to the Club, arising from an effort of inclusion and gender equality, achieving in this first season the double conquest of the Portuguese competitions: Championship and the Portuguese Cup. As result of the Championship victory, our women's senior football team won the possibility to play for the access of the UEFA Women's Champions League played in August, 2017 in Budapest. Despite the second place achieve in tournament, this result wasn't enough to go through the competition. The grassroots won their respective titles and our junior team won all the matches played.

At men's football grassroots level, the planned and sustained work that is being developed in the last years it is increasingly evident. At this matter, it is necessary to highlight the recovery of the national title of our Under-19 (junior) team after a five years interregnum; the two-time champion of our Under-17 (juvenile) team and the dispute until the last week of the Under-15 team (initiate), being runner-up of its championship.

Relatively to the season 2017/18, we welcome the decision of the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) which determines the implementation of VaR (video referee) technology in all Portuguese League matches, meeting one of the measures most favored by our club at national and international level, as auxiliary instrument of the referees and promoter of greater accuracy and sports truth.

At global term, the revenue, in the analyzed period, including player's transactions, was 173,000 thousand Euros, the highest in our history. Focused only in players transactions revenue, the value was 93,000 thousand Euros, also a record in this line. Stand out still and after a season at negative values, the Equity in this fiscal year is 5,600 thousand Euros positive. The activity of Sporting SAD allows a net income of 30,600 thousand Euros.In terms of investment, Sporting SAD carried out the change of the football pitch of José Alvalade Stadium, Aurélio Pereira Stadium already related in the last report. It was also introduced some improvements in our Academy, with the change of the synthetic pitch, the construction of a new pitch, some shifts in the illumination system and another infrastructures improvements that will be fully implemented in the 2017/18 season.

Sporting SAD has been developing a multiple services restructuring, strengthening the structure, investing in training, infrastructures, qualification of human capital at all levels of the hierarchy, improving the work conditions and contributing to a more efficient organization. At the same time, it has been developed an effort to the dissemination and internationalization of the brand by the extension of the network of School Academies that are localized in four Continents.

The positive results are a team work effort of the different areas and professionals. Thus, I want to express our thanks to all those who, on a daily basis, continue to help us develop SPORTING SAD and enhance the Sporting Clube de Portugal name. Employees, athletes, partners and all the other stakeholders.

To all of them, our heartfelt thank-you.

Long live Sporting Clube de Portugal!

Bruno de Carvalho Chairman of the Board of Directors

  • · 80 % scholastic success of residents in terms of secondary education.

At the Academy, the integrated development was promoted through the Departamento de Psico - Pedagógico (Psycho Pedagogue Department), which acts transversally with all the participants in same. Hence, during the financial period, in addition to the above mentioned skills' enhancement and scholastic motivation, were promoted a several number of internal training courses of personal development with the athletes, namely training at "Good Use of Social Networks", "Sporting Clube de Portugal Values", visits and debates to entities which finality are wealth or social (IPO, Johnson Academy), speeches carried out by our Adapted Sports Department with the presence of our Goalball athlete, Cátia Monteiro and Adapted Canoeing athlete Norberto Mourão where the motivations, resilience, overcoming and equality between all were widely explored.

It was promoted a lot of periodic meetings with the technical heads of the various levels, the liaison with the clinical department to anticipate possible risk situations and the development of internal training courses were also promoted.

Sporting maintained 24 Schools in operation during the present season, counting on a total of 4 500 youths aged between 4 and 15.

As regards the recruitment of athletes for the grassroots levels (training levels), during season 16/17, were observed 458 athletes from our School Academies. These athletes were observed on integrated training with our young teams at the EUL (Estádio Universitário de Lisboa) Hub, at our Academy and at School Academy Sporting – Alfena. 43 training matches were played between the young competition teams of Sporting Clube de Portugal and teams from several Schools Academies Sporting (EAS). A several of young players (9) from EAS participated in different tournaments integrated with our teams.

Sporting Academy Holidays

Since the summer of 2005, Sporting Clube de Portugal realizes, at Sporting Academy, the Sporting Academy Holidays. During a week, young boys and girls from 7 years old until 16, have the opportunity to live a unique experience at the training center usually reserved to Sporting players and athletes.

The main goal is to provide a day by day experience of their idols. In addition to the main and principal activity – football trainings, they are part some other sports activities, playful and animation like: visit to José Alvalade Stadium and Sporting Museum (Mundo Sporting), nautical games, pool, cinema sessions, Super Quiz night, Thematic night, Discoteque night and karaoke, treasure hunt, room games (table football, snooker and table tennis) and footvoley.

Just like past years, the vacancies were sold out in less in a month after the program opening to the general public. 302 young kids take part of Sporting Academy Holidays, divided by the 7 weeks of the program.

Internationalization

Sporting has developed a number of dissemination activities with regard to its academy, having the following International Sporting Academy Schools (EAS) in operation - Escola Academia Sporting Toronto (Sporting Toronto Academy School) (Canada); EAS CANO Sport Academy (Equatorial Guinea); EAS Cidade da Praia and EAS Mindelo, both in Cape Green; EAS Rustenburg, EAS Nelspruit and EAS Johannesburg, all in South Africa and opening new EAS Athens (Greece), EAS Singapura, EAS Ciudad da Guatemala (Guatemala), EAS Alajuela (Costa Rica), EAS Pretória (South Africa) and EAS Norberto de Castro (Angola).

They have been developed three international summer camps, two in Switzerland and one in United States of America.

Sporting Training Academy

Being more than just a football Club, Sporting has defined in its strategy an important chapter on sustainability and social responsibility.

Sporting is known as a training Club and has competent people in this area. Hence, the decision was taken to develop products so as to work this area with the aim of creating a

unified offer by the various employees, thereby enhancing the Club as a training brand, not only internally but also in the community, and expanding the Sporting brand, already associated with training, to civil society. It was in this sense that we promoted the creation of the Sporting Training Academy brand. This brand aims to bring together, in an integrated manner, the entire training offer the Club has in sports terms.

The vision embraces the design, implementation and evaluation of training programs that excel through quality and differentiation at the national and international level.

This concept is in line with the Sporting brand values, given the excellence in athlete development, realized by professionals working in the Club and in the SAD. The brand develops specific products for the education, health, performance and training and management areas.

a) Sporting Summer School

Launched in 2014, under this product, marketed between the months of July and August, young aspiring coaches can reside for six days at the Academy, applying their learning to the athletes enrolled in the sports holidays - another initiative that allows young athletes to reside at the Sporting Academy for a week, dedicating themselves exclusively to football.

The first edition of the Sporting Summer School worked with one level 1 class, to test the concept, with the program covering areas such as training, physical education, performance psychology, recruitment and the clinical area, lectured for eight hours daily. The possibility of the students residing at the Academy during the course is optional. Whilst in 2014 only one level 1 class was opened, the 2015 edition had four level 1 classes (36 students). In 2016, to the level 1 course was added the offer of a level 2 course. The two courses have been certified by the Instituto Português do Desporto e da Juventude (IPDJ) (Portuguese Institute of Sport and Youth) as Continuing Education for Sports Coaches (corresponding to 8.8 units of credit for the renewal of the Professional Title of Sports Coach). During this year, 2 level 1 courses and 1 level 2 course were realized.

All this so that Sporting can assume itself not only as the only Club to have trained two Golden Ball winners, but also as the one that can launch coaches of excellence into the World.

b) Masters in Sports Management

To develop the professional sports fabric, Sporting focuses on the development of the Masters in Sports Management in partnership with ISG – Instituto Superior de Gestão (Higher School of Management). One of the pillars of this project is to seek answers and solutions so as to positively work the skills of the professional sports fabric.

This course translates a strong commitment to higher education. It is a differentiated offering in the Management area, offering organizational knowledge at the various levels,

such as at the club, team, human resources, and facilities, i.e., all areas directly linked to sports and to a sports structure.

The Masters will also be lectured at the Jose Alvalade Stadium and will include two residential days at the Sporting Academy. It will have a very practical approach and will be lectured solely by professionals with experience rooted in the sports reality.

c) Training Course for Sports Management Technical Support Professionals

Sporting is also characterized by the concerns it harbors with the various issues relating to the young people it trains. Hence, the Club grasped the school problems existing amongst athletes training in the various "leonine" sports areas and decided to act, setting up within the Sporting Training Academy, in partnership with the Instituto de Emprego e Formação Profissional (Institute of Employment and Professional Training), a learning course aimed at young athletes of the various sports areas and of the Academy, as well as for young people who may be proposed by the Sporting Foundation and by civil society itself.

Both of the Sports Management Technical Support courses (41 students) will commence in September and will permit a dual certification: 12th grade at school level and level 4 at the Sports Management Technical Support Professional level.

Given the positive evaluation of this course either by Sporting Clube de Portugal, either by IEFP, Sporting Clube de Portugal applied to be able to teach two more classes of students having a positive answer to this apply. Thereby, will start during the September month, two more classes of 25 students each one.

This course has been a significant challenge for Sporting Clube de Portugal and was a bet won. The social responsibility duty of an organization as Sporting Clube de Portugal was put into practice making possible to an almost 100 young kids to come back or continue their studies and their professional qualifications.

d) Leonine Holidays

This is a sports holiday program with a very strong component of Sporting culture promotion to children. This program was run at the Multisport facilities during the months of July, August and September. In this year, 9 weeks were organized with the presence of about 290 young people aged between 6 and 14.

Since the football sports holiday already exists, this ATL (Leisure Time Workshop) aims to divulge the other sports areas of the Club. Young people can enjoy many of the 'leonine' sports areas, such as swimming, table tennis, futsal or combat sports, amongst others. This ATL will also include visits to the Museu Mundo Sporting (Sporting-World Museum), the Stadium and various development activities (such as Sporting TV Kids, Caça ao Jubas ("Lion Mane" Hunt)).

Clinical Department

The Clinical Department is coordinated by Dr. Frederico Varandas, being its clinical director and 1st doctor of the Senior team. It is also constituted by Dr. Francisco Moreira (1st doctor of the B team), Virgílio Abreu (2nd doctor of the A team and 2nd doctor of the B team), Dr. Nuno Oliveira (doctor of the youth levels) and Dr. Pedro Pessoa: responsible for orthopedic surgery and doctor of the youth levels.

Annually, the Medical Department of SCP organizes the "Jornadas Internacionais de Medicina Desportiva do SCP" (SCP International Sports Medicine Workshops). The workshops are presided by Dr. Frederico Varandas and Dr. Pedro Pessoa.

2. FINANCIAL RESTRUCTURING

Under the financial restructuring plan contracted, and consequent recapitalization of the Company, the following operations, previously approved by the Company's General Meeting of 23 July 2013, following the prior approval thereof by the General Meeting of Sporting Clube de Portugal, of 30 June 2013, were implemented:

  • Merger by incorporation of SPM in SPORTING SAD, in accordance with art. 97 no. 4 paragraph a) of the Commercial Companies Code, with the transfer of SPM's net assets, which include the extension in time of the surface rights over the José Alvalade Stadium and the Multisport Building amounting to 73 million Euros, which term expires on 4 April 2063. The merger produced accounting impacts as from 1 October 2014 and entailed an increase in the share capital of the Company of 8 million Euros, taking it up to 47 million Euros.
  • Share capital increase, in kind, realized by Holdimo SA in the amount of 20 million Euros, realized through the incorporation of a credit of the same amount held by that company, and materialized through the issue of 20 million new shares with a nominal value 1 Euro each, with, consequence thereof, the Company's share capital increasing, once more, to 67 million Euros.
  • Issue of securities mandatorily convertible (SMC) into shares of the Company, registered and nominative, in the amount of 80 million Euros, with a nominal value of 1 Euro each, with a 12-year period, at a subscription price of 1 Euro each. These SMCs will be convertible into ordinary shares (category B) of SPORTING SAD at a conversion price of 1 Euro each, with a conditional annual gross interest rate of 4%, due when SPORTING SAD has distributable earnings in the financial period ended prior to the annual interest payment date. The issue was executed through private placement with payment in kind, consisting of the conversion of loans held in SPORTING SAD by Novo Banco, S.A., amounting to 24 million Euros and by Banco Comercial Português, S.A., amounting to 56 million Euros.

  • Acquisition of Participation Units of Sporting Portugal Fund, complying with a strategic management objective of SPORTING SAD of recovering economic rights previously disposed of by the Company in respect of the players making up the portfolio of the Sporting Portugal Fund, with SPORTING SAD acquiring 100% of the Participation Units (PUs) of that Fund, realizing to that effect a total investment of 12,650,000 Euros, it being our belief that this acquisition price will be recovered through the future sale of these economic rights.

  • The General Meeting of 23 July 2013 also granted an authorization to the Board of Directors to carry out one or more capital increases of SPORTING SAD, in a total amount of 18 million Euros, to be realized in cash through private placement with (an) investor(s) of reference selected by the Company's Board of Directors, with suppression of the preemptive right of the shareholders.

The Company presents, as at 30 June 2017, a positive equity but inferior to an half of the share capital causing SPORTING SAD to be in the situation referred to in art. 35 of the Commercial Companies Code.

In this context, in compliance with the provisions of that article, the shareholders shall decide at the General Meeting as to the possibility of the:

  • a) dissolution of the company;
  • b) reduction of the share capital;
  • c) realization of cash contributions that maintain, at least, a two-thirds coverage of the share capital; and / or
  • d) taking of concrete measures aimed at maintaining, at least, a two-thirds coverage of the share capital.

Nevertheless, it is the opinion of the Board of Directors that the course charted for SPORTING SAD, with the guidelines previously announced, sustained and based on the financial restructuring project already implemented and taking into account the subsequent facts contained in the present report, will enable the SAD to create value, generate profits and overcome the situation in which it finds itself of having lost half of its share capital.

3. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

II. ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

In financial period 2016/17, SPORTING SAD presented a positive net income of 30,537 thousand Euros, a result substantially higher than that verified in the previous period (June 2017: negative 31,905 thousand Euros).

This variation is justified with different events, of which we highlight the growth of the revenue with the added values achieved with the sale of sports rights of players, a sustained growth in every business lines, an increase at Staff costs arising from the team investment, among other effects.

The main captions of the Income statement for the periods ended 30 June 2017 and 2016 are presented as follows:

Description 2016/17 2015/16
Total Revenue 172,998 77,306
Operational revenue excl. registration rights transactions 80,001 68,750
Revenue from players' registration rights 92,997 8,556
Rights transactions costs (15,089) (840)
Squad amortization and impairment losses (18,359) (9,332)
Operational costs (96,926) (78,494)
Net result for the period 30,537 -31,905

Graphically:

The results presented for season 2016/2017 confirm Sporting's assertion strategy that, having recovered from a negative period of its history, managed to increase the investment in its squad and in its academy.

In revenue terms, Sporting SAD, reaches the total amount of 173,000 thousand Euros, the highest value in history. This is a significant and sustained growth as result of the work done in the last few seasons.

The operational income excluding sports rights transactions achieved 80,000 thousand Euros, that represents an addition of 11,000 thousand Euros, justified by merchandising sales growth, ticket office and Gamebox (Season Tickets), advertising and sponsorships and others. Another relevant growth is related with UEFA competitions income, result of the presence in UEFA Champions League, which allows to get the amount needed to face Doyen litigation, given that the income related to this business line is retained until the end of the litigation process.

The amount of the capital gains with player transactions stood a record value at 93,000 thousand Euros which should be deducted the sales costs of 15,000 thousand Euros to get the added value of 78,000 thousand Euros. This amount is fundamentally related to the sale of the rights relating to João Mário, Slimani and Rúben Semedo.

1. Operational revenue and gains excluding registration rights' transactions and amortization and impairment losses of the squad

The operational revenue of SPORTING SAD evolved positively between seasons 2015/16 and 2016/17, recording an increase in excess of 11 million Euros, as follows:

Operational revenue and gains 2016/17 2015/16
UEFA participation 14,942 8,486
Other revenue and gains 11,462 11,336
TV rights 25,895 24,809
Sponsorships and advertising 11,684 9,921
Ticket office and season tickets 16,017 14,198
80,001 68,750

Graphically:

As can be observed, this increase is explained mainly by the combined effect of (a) an increase in revenue from ticketing, (b) European competitions participation, (c) TV rights and (d) advertising and sponsorships.

2. Operational costs and losses excluding registration rights' transactions and amortization and impairment losses of the squad

As for SPORTING SAD's cost structure, financial period 2016/17 saw an increase in total expenditure incurred, associated with the above mentioned investment in the professional squad and academy. It should, however, be stressed that this does not imply any reversal in the cost containment policy, but rather a focus on a greater activity dynamic, aimed at

positioning SPORTING SAD, permanently, amongst the best Portuguese teams – a place, it must be stressed, is its by right -, which resulted in the assumption of higher costs.

Indeed, the 18,432 thousand Euros increase verified reflects, essentially, an increase in the caption Staff costs as result as the defined strategy of the strong investment in the squad. Additionally, the costs raise verified of 23% it's proportional to the operational income growth excluding sports rights transactions of 16%.

In absolute terms:

Operational costs and losses 2016/17 2015/16
Cost of merchandise sold 2,227 2,247
External supplies and services 18,120 17,342
Staff costs 63,998 48,865
Depreciation and amortization (excl. squad) 4,739 4,378
Provisions and impairment losses (excl. squad) 3,348 3,051
Other costs and losses 4,494 2,611
96,926 78,494

Graphically:

Staff costs

In sports season 2016/17 the decision was made to invest heavily in strengthening the squad and the coaching team, anticipating a period of opportunity and of financial capacity

for this investment. Despite of the sports results were not achieved, it is considered that the success base it's created.

3. Transactions of players' registration rights and amortization and impairment of the squad

With regard to the squad, sports season 2016/17 was one of the best in Sporting SAD history. At 2015/2016 season, the transactions of player's registration rights were reduced for a strategical option and policy of selling just at the end of the summer transfer window to empower better sales and this exercise is the reflex of this strategy. Sporting SAD achieved the two highest sports rights sales ever – João Mário sold by 40,000 thousand Euros and Slimani by 30,000 thousand Euros. These values can be raised by objectives associated with the sports performance of the players. We highlight Slimani case, in which Sporting SAD has already billed an additional amount of 500 thousand Euros at 2016/2017 and in the beginning of 2017/2018 other additional amount of 500 thousand Euros.

Highlighting also the transaction of another Academy formed player, Rúben Semedo, for a value of 14,000 thousand Euros added of a 20% of a future sale, which allows the entrance of this transaction in the top 10 of history sales of Sporting SAD.

Transactions related to the squad / athletes 2015/16 2014/15
Amortization and impairment losses of registration
rights -9 332 -10 816
Revenue from registration rights' transactions 7 716 28 002
Costs from registration rights' transactions
Gains / (Losses) with the squad -1 616 17 186

4. Financial Position

SPORTING SAD presents, at 30 June 2017, an evolution of its financial position when compared to that of the previous year. In absolute terms:

Statement of financial position 2016/17 2015/16
Non-current assets 225,285 197,065
Current assets 91,212 27,274
Net equity 5,618 (24,954)
Non-current liabilities 120,351 142,776
Current liabilities 190,528 106,519

Graphically:

The increase in non-current assets reflects, for the most part, the increase in the value of the squad with highlight of the players Bas Dost and Bruno Fernandes acquired by, respectively, 11,850 thousand Euros and 9,690 thousand Euros (note 12).

In terms of current assets, the increase is significant – almost 64,000 thousand Euros, effect of the increase of Clients caption, derivative of the economic rights sales and the retention of UEFA income totalizing 17,100 thousand Euros at 30 June 2017.

In Equity, the impact is positive because the effect of Net Income result of 30,537 thousand Euros which raises the Equity to a positive value of 5,618 thousand Euros.

In Liabilities, the highlight goes to the increase of 25,000 thousand in Accounts Payable caption, essentially caused by the strong investment in the squad, the total bank debt reduction of 4,600 thousand Euros and the increase of current and non-current liabilities related with future assignments without recourse at the total value of 21,500 thousand Euros, respectively 16,900 thousand Euros and 4,500 thousand Euros.

The working capital worsens almost 20,000 thousand Euros, but if we consider that the bond loan value of 30,000 thousand Euros terminates at May 2018, which in the last report was recorded as non-current liabilities and in this report is recorded as current liabilities, we can conclude an improvement of 10,000 thousand Euros in Working Capital.

III. COMPANY PROSPECTS

The situation set down in this report and the results presented follow the path set by the current Board of Directors, aimed at rapidly creating conditions for the sustainability of the Company. With a significant improvement in the sports results being evident in this

financial period, and consequent financial impacts, it is foreseen that, in collaboration with all stakeholders, the Company will confirm these intentions and will be able to create the conditions that will enable it to maintain a balanced situation, seeking to recreate the sports successes of the past, whilst ensuring, always, the maintenance of positive operational accounts. Hence, the aforementioned financial restructuring plan, supported by the banking creditors and the shareholders, will permit a restructuring of the accounts whilst at the same time opening up growth prospects for the economic activities of the Company in Portugal and abroad. Therefore, we want to keep the revenue growth, grounded on a cost and investment increase base but balanced and sustained.

The future sports "wager" will always focus on an increased investment in young players with growth potential, at the Sporting Schools and at other partner clubs, national and international, maintaining always the perspective of social responsibility and the preservation of young athletes' rights, coordinating the physical growth of these with their psychic and social development. This investment justifies the acquisition of athletes with more experience to bring more capability for the squad.

Efforts will be made to increase the Company's revenue, be it through the maximization of the so-called "classic" revenue or through the creation of other activities that generate positive cash flows, such as, for example, at the level of sporting bets (which legislative framework, recently published, requires some adjustments) and via the transfer of knowhow through the SPORTING Academies, the latter not only integrating football but also the other sports areas developed by SPORTING CP.

In terms of Company expenditure, the current Board of Directors' focus is on setting limits based on estimated revenue, seeking to obtain and maintain positive net results, and creating the bases for a sustained recovery of the equity.

The Company will implement measures to enhance its own projects or those developed in partnership that increase the levels of sustainability, in terms of its social, economic and environmental pillars.

Acquisition of participating Units of Sporting Portugal Fund

On 23 February 2015, following the Framework Agreement and considering the strategic goal of Sporting SAD to regain the economic rights on players' registrations, that were previously alienated by the Society and which composed the Sporting Portugal Fund portfolio, Sporting SAD has acquired 100% of the Fund's participation Units, representing a total investment of Euro 12,650,000. The board of directors considers that the amount paid on this acquisition will be fully recovered with the future sale of the economic rights.

The Fund was liquidated on 1 June 2015, and terminated on 5 June 2015, with the consequent transfer of existing economic rights in the assets of the respective portfolio for Sporting SAD, as the sole participant of the Fund.

Up to the date of issuance of this report, Sporting SAD had not yet concluded the estimation of the effects of changes arising from the adoption of these standards, for which it decided not to adopt them on an earlier basis. However, no material effect is expected in the financial statements as a result of their adoption.

1.4 Tangible Assets

Tangible assets are measured at acquisition cost deducted from depreciation and impairment losses. The acquisition cost includes all the expenditures immediately incurred to the acquisition of current goods.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate
asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to
the Company and the respective cost can be reliably measured. All other repairs and
maintenance costs, other than the planned maintenance, are charged to the income
statement in the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation is calculated over the acquisition cost, using the straight line method, as from
the date the asset is available for use, using the rates that best reflect the estimated useful
life for each group of assets, as follows:
Useful life
Buildings and other constructions
8-40
Bas
ic equipment
4-8
Transportation equipment
7
Administrative equipment
2-8
Other tangible ass
ets
5-8
The residual values of the assets and their respective useful lives are reviewed and adjusted
whenever necessary as of the reporting date. If the book value of the asset is higher than
the asset's realizable value, then it is written down to the estimated recoverable amount
through the recognition of impairment losses (Notes 6 and 11).

Gains or losses arising from the derecognition or disposal of tangible assets are calculated as the difference between the proceeds received on disposal and the asset's book value, and are recognized in the income statement as other operating income or costs.

Sporting SAD performs impairment analysis whenever there are signs that the net book value of the assets is greater than the net realizable value, an impairment loss is recognized whenever the net book value exceeds the recoverable amount. The impairment losses are recognized as period costs.

The recoverable amount is determined by the greater amount between the sales net price and the value in use, being this one calculated as the actual value of the future cash flows estimated to be obtained from the continued useful and from the disposal amount in the end of its useful life.

1.5 Intangible Assets

Squad

The squad value included on intangible assets is booked at acquisition cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. The intangible assets are only recognized if it is likely that they will result in future economic benefits for Sporting SAD, are controlled by the Company and can be measured reasonably.

This accounting caption contains the incurred costs with the acquisition, registration and economic rights of professional players as well as other expenses connected, such as the intermediation commissions' basis and signature prizes, net from the accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. As such, the cost amount of acquisition incorporates the holder entity reimbursement amount and other intermediate costs on the transaction.

When the reimbursements related with the sports rights acquisition of players generates an obligation that is dependent of future factors not fully under the Company control, particularly when the payments are subordinate to player work contract maintenance, those future obligations are not considered on the initial acquisition value, and subsequently, on the liability, being recognized in period results according with the service line.

The sports rights of players are subject to amortizations on a monthly basis, on a straight line method over the period of the contracts, in accordance with Law No. 103/97 of 13 September.

The expenses incurred with the renewal / extension of sports employment contracts with players are also recorded under this caption and a new net book value is calculated, which is amortized according to the new period of employment.

At the time of actual sale of the players' rights, the gains and losses from the sale are recognized in the income statement. In situations where Sporting SAD continues to hold a certain percentage of economic rights in the future is disclosed as contingent assets.

Situations where Sporting SAD owns less than 100% of the economic rights while maintaining all the sports right, means that Sporting SAD concluded with third an association agreement of economic interests which constitutes an investment partnership, resulting in the proportional sharing of the results related to the future transaction of these rights, remaining as intangible assets in the Statement of Financial Position of Sporting SAD.

In situations where Sporting SAD has players transferred temporarily to other entities, these players are part of the value of the squad, since there is no actual sale. Thus, the expenses incurred on the acquisition of athlete passes which are temporarily transferred to third party clubs remain an intangible asset in the Statement of Financial Position of Sporting SAD, maintaining the amortization criteria for as long as the contract is in force.

Sporting SAD performs impairment tests annually and also when there are indications that its assets have a net book value exceeding the estimated realizable value, and therefore an impairment loss is recognized when the net value of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount. These impairment losses are recognized in the income statement.

Others

Intangible assets are only recognized when they are identifiable, controllable and can be reasonably measured and when it is likely that they will generate future economic benefits for the Company.

Intangible assets are recorded at cost less depreciation and impairment losses, by the straight line method. The useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed annually. The effect of changes in these estimates is recognized prospectively in the income statement.

The intangible assets include mostly the surface rights of the José Alvalade stadium and multisport building, whose term ends on 4 April 2063. It will be amortized over the duration of the term.

Sporting SAD performs impairment tests annually and also when there are indications that its assets have a net book value exceeding the estimated realizable value, and therefore an impairment loss is recognized when the net value of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount. These impairment losses are recognized in the income statement.

For the purpose of conducting impairment tests of intangible assets, the former are associated with the lowest cash-generating unit to which it belongs (stadium).

1.6 Leases

Tangible fixed assets acquired under financial leasing contracts and the corresponding liabilities are recorded using the financial method.

According to this method the cost of the asset is recorded in tangible fixed assets, the corresponding liability is recorded in Interest-bearing liabilities heading, the interest included in the lease installments and depreciation of the assets, calculated as described in Note 1.4, is recorded as an expense in the income statement for the year to which they relate.

Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and associated rewards of ownership are retained by the tenant are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases, net of any incentives received from the lessor, are recorded in the income statement during the lease term.

1.7 Granted Loans and other non-current receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in the market. They arise when the Company provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention of trading the receivable.

They are included in current assets, except when dealing with assets with maturities greater than 12 months after the date of financial position. These are classified as noncurrent assets.

Loans and receivables are measured initially at fair value and subsequently at amortized cost.

Impairment losses are recorded when there is objective evidence that the Company will not receive the amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. To this end, the Company takes into consideration market information showing:

  • If the counterparty presents significant financial difficulties;
  • If there are significant delays in payments by the counterparty;
  • If it is probable that the debtor will go into liquidation.

Any impairment losses are recognized as an expense in "Impairment losses on receivables", reflecting their expected net realizable value.

1.8 Impairment of non-current assets, excluding goodwill

Impairment tests are made whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset recorded may be greater than its recoverable amount. When the recoverable amount of an asset is less than the amount for which an impairment loss is recorded it is recognized in the income statement.

The recoverable amount is the higher between the net selling price and value in use. Net selling price is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in a transaction between knowledgeable parties, less its disposal costs. The value in use of an asset is the present value of estimated future cash flows arising from its continued use until the end of its useful life. The recoverable amount is estimated for each individual asset.

When there are indications that impairment losses recorded in prior years have been reversed or reduced a reassessment of the situations that gave rise to the impairment record is performed. The reversal of the impairment is recorded in the income statement and is made up to the amount that would be recognized, net of amortization, if the impairment loss had not been recorded in previous periods.

1.9 Trade and other current receivables

The balances from customers and other current receivables are recorded at nominal value less impairment losses necessary to place them at their expected net realizable value.

Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets expire or transferred to other parties, such as all the risks and rewards of ownership. The transference of the right to receive cash flows from the assets (e.g.: factoring) only gives

way to its write-off in the case where the credit risk and default are transferred to a third party. Otherwise the amount received for the transfer is treated as borrowings.

Impairment losses are recorded when there is objective evidence that the Company will not receive the amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. To this end, the Company takes into consideration market information showing:

  • If the counterparty presents significant financial difficulties;
  • If there are significant delays in payments by the counterparty;
  • If it is probable that the debtor will go into liquidation.

The amounts receivable that are represented by discounted bills not yet due at the balance sheet date are recognized in the financial position until the date of receipt.

1.10 Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower between the cost and net realizable value. Inventories are initially recognized at cost, which includes all costs incurred and commercial discounts obtained in the purchase process until the entry into storage. For the purposes of valuation of warehouse outlets, the Company uses the weighted average cost.

1.11 Cash and Cash Equivalents

The cash and cash equivalents includes the amounts registered in balances with maturity of less than three months and also the cash and deposits in credit institutions, whose values are considered in the statement of cash flows.

The cash and cash equivalents includes cash, bank deposits and other short-term investments with original maturities of 3 months which can be mobilized immediately without any significant risk of fluctuations in value.

1.12 Equity

Common shares are classified as equity. The costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, to the amount received from the issue.

Expenses directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options for the acquisition of a business are included in the acquisition cost as part of the purchase price.

1.13 Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred and subsequently stated at amortized cost. Any differences between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and redemption value are recognized in the income statement over the debt period, using the method of effective interest rate.

Any differences between the estimated refunds at baseline and reimbursements actually paid over the duration of financing implies the revaluation of amortized cost using the present value calculation of estimated future repayments at the original effective interest rate. The corresponding adjustment is recognized in earnings.

Financial liabilities are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the date of financial reporting.

1.14 Financial costs on loans

Financial charges related to loans, are generally recognized as financial costs, in accordance with the accrual basis.

Financial charges on loans directly related to the acquisition, construction (if the construction period exceeds one year) or production of fixed assets are capitalized as part of the cost of the asset.

Capitalization of these charges begins after the start of preparation for construction or development of the asset and is suspended after its utilization begins or when the execution of the project is suspended or substantially complete.

1.15 Compound financial instruments

Financial instruments other than derivatives that contain a liability component and an equity component are classified as compound financial instruments.

The mandatorily convertible securities fall within the definition of compound financial instruments given their mandatory conversion into the Company's equity instruments at maturity.

For these instruments to be considered as compound financial instruments, the number of shares to be issued upon conversion is determined on the date of issue and do not vary with changes in their fair value.

The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognized initially at the present value of the future interest payments, discounted at the market interest rate applicable to similar liabilities that do not have a conversion option. The equity component is recognized initially as the difference between the current value of the compound financial instrument and the present value of the liability component. Transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial balance values.

Subsequently, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortized cost, recognizing the interest cost on results through the effective interest rate method. The equity component value is not re-evaluated after initial recognition except on conversion events or maturity of the instruments.

To measure the financial liability component, the obligation to pay interests or delivery of cash does not need to occur in a certain form; it may be contingent on the occurrence or non-occurrence of future events (or result of uncertain circumstances) that are out of control of the issuer and the subscriber – the existence of a contingent obligation.

There are 3 exceptions for an event of circumstance not controlled by the issuer not to meet the definition of a contingent obligation event, as stated by IAS 32.

  • When the event is "not genuine" according to the definition of IAS 32.
  • When the issuer only has to fulfill the obligation at the time of liquidation of the company;
  • The instrument has a put option or creates an obligation on liquidation;

A contingent obligation is not genuine if the obligation of the delivery of cash or other financial asset only occurs as a result of an event extremely rare, unusual or a low probability of occurrence, in this case the contingent obligation is not considered for purposes of the financial instrument classification, ie to assess whether there is characteristic of debt or equity.

1.16 Trade and other payables

Suppliers and other creditors are classified according to their maturity is less than 12 months from the date of the balance sheet in current liabilities or non-current, respectively.

Supplier's balances and other payables are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost.

1.17 Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a legal, contractual or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is likely that an outflow and / or surrender of resources will be made in order to settle the obligation; and that a reliable estimate of the obligation's amount can be calculated.

Provisions are measured at the present value of expenses that are expected to incur to comply with the obligations of Sporting SAD. If applicable, the effect of temporal adjustment of the obligation is recognized in the income statement.

Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses. Provisions are reviewed at the reporting date and adjusted to reflect the best estimate at that date.

1.18 Revenue recognition and accrual

Sporting SAD records its income and expenses, as they are generated, in accordance with the accrual basis, regardless of when they are received or paid.

The differences between the amounts received and paid and the corresponding income and expenses are recorded under "Other current assets" and "Other current liabilities".

The revenue from sponsorship, advertising, broadcasting rights for football games and concession areas is recognized according to the duration of the respective contracts.

The income from the ticket office is recognized as revenue at the time the games are held. Revenues from the sale of season tickets are recognized throughout the sports season.

Revenues and game premiums are recognized by Sporting SAD in income in the period in which they are performed.

Fixed bonuses obtained from the right to participate in European football competitions are recognized in the year in which the participation in these competitions occurs.

Results from the alienation of sports rights of players are recorded in the income statement as gains on transactions of players' sports rights by the total amount of transaction net of the book value at the date of the sale and other expenses incurred, including spending on intermediary services, charged responsibilities with the solidarity mechanism, among others. Where relevant, it is considered while determining the transaction value, the effect of the financial discount of related non-current receivables. The recognition of revenue is made in the period in which it is considered that the risks and benefits of sports rights of professional players substantially transferred.

When risks and benefits are not significantly transferred, the financial flows resulting from the conclusion of these contracts with partners / investment funds are recorded in liabilities.

At the time of sale of a player's registration, the values to deliver to the fund from the sale to a third party, correspond to the proportional part of the economic rights transferred to the fund, and if applicable, net of amounts paid by the fund for the cost of sale. These costs are recorded on "gains on transactions of players 'sports rights" in situations where it is distinct from the liability recorded at the date of sale.

Gains arising from the compensation received from the transfer of players to third parties are recognized with their contractual commitment within the period to which the transfer relates.

Gains associated to the solidarity mechanism by which the entity that formed the player is entitled to compensation in the event of subsequent transfer of players registration, are recognized at the time that Sporting SAD becomes entitled to receive such compensation.

Financial gains such as interests are recognized in accordance with accrual basis, considering the amount receivable and the effective interest rate over the period to the maturity.

1.19 Financial results

Net financing costs include interest paid on loans, interest received from financial applications, dividends received, gains and losses from foreign exchange differences, gains and losses on financial instruments and changes in fair value of the hedged risk and effects of differences on the fair value of debts if applicable.

Interest payable is recognized in accordance with the accrual basis, considering the effective interest rate. Interest on financial leases is recognized as an expense over the leasing period, in order to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

1.20 Transactions expressed in foreign currency

The functional currency of the Company is the Euro, since this represents faithfully the economic effects of transactions, events and conditions.

The transactions that are expressed in foreign currency are translated into Euro based on exchange rates in force on the date on which they are carried out.

On the financial reporting date, monetary assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate prevailing on that date, and exchange differences arising on translation are recognized as income.

The non-monetary assets or liabilities denominated in foreign currency, recorded at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate of the transaction date.

1.21 Income Tax

The income tax includes current and deferred taxes. The current income tax is determined based on the net profit, adjusted in accordance with tax legislation in force at the reporting date.

Deferred tax is calculated based on the responsibility of the statement of financial position, on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the respective tax base. It is used the tax rate expected to be in force during the period in which the temporary differences will reverse to determine the deferred tax's amount.

Deferred tax assets are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that there will be future profits that will allow Sporting SAD to recover these amounts. Deferred tax assets are reviewed periodically and decreased in value whenever it is unlikely that they can be used.

Deferred taxes are recorded as expense or income for the year, unless they result from amounts recorded directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recorded in equity.

1.22 Responsabilities for retirement pension supplements

As provided for in the Collective Labor Agreement of Administrative Workers from Football and / or SAD's clubs represented by the Portuguese Professional Football League, workers who retire are entitled to a pension supplement, plus the remuneration of pension paid by Social Security, that make up to a maximum of 90% of the remuneration earned by the employee at the date of retirement, depending on the number of years of service.

The pension supplement will be updated annually in proportion to the remuneration of the respective category.

With the creation of the Business Group of Sporting Clube de Portugal, this incorporates Sporting SAD; employees moving from the club to this group remained covered by the contract, for which Sporting SAD took also the responsibilities from those workers from that date on.

These responsibilities constitute a defined benefit plan, since they guarantee the employees covered a fixed supplementary pension, in addition to the pension that they will be granted by Social Security.

This liability is provisioned in the financial statements in accordance with IAS 19 being the calculation of this responsibility carried out by a specialized and independent entity in accordance with the projected unit credit method.

The liability thus determined is shown in the statement of financial position under "Liabilities for post-employment benefits" in non-current liabilities.

The Company records the re-measurements directly in the statement of comprehensive income, in particular those resulting from changes in demographic and financial assumptions and experience gains in respect of differences between actual and estimated data.

Gains and losses generated by a limitation or settlement of a plan of defined benefit pensions are recognized in the income statement when the cut or settlement occurs. A curtailment occurs when there is a material reduction in the number of employees.

1.23 Contingent Assets and Liabilities

Contingent assets are possible assets that arise from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly on the control of Sporting SAD.

Contingent assets are not recorded in the financial statements, are disclosed in the notes when it is likely that those future economic benefits will occur.

Contingent liabilities are defined by the group when:

  • A possible obligation arising from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the entity's control; or,
  • A present obligation arising from past events but it is not recognized because it is not likely that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits required settling the obligation or because the amount of the obligation cannot be reliably measured.

Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements. These are disclosed in the notes when its likeliness of occurrence is low or imprecise.

1.24 Earnings per share

The earnings per share result from the operation of dividing the net profit attributable to shareholders by the outstanding number of ordinary shares. Therefore, treasury shares are excluded from the calculation of earnings per share.

For the calculation of diluted earnings per share, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding is adjusted to reflect the effect of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, such as those arising from convertible debt. The dilution effect translates into a reduction in earnings per share resulting from the assumption that convertible instruments are converted and therefore the number of shares increases.

1.25 Operating Segments

Sporting SAD has decided not to present information by operating segments due to the fact that it has not identified more than one business in their activities, in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 8.

1.26 Subsequent Events

Events occurring after the date of the statement of financial position, which provide additional information about conditions that existed at the reporting date, are considered when preparing the financial statements for the year.

Events occurring after the date of the statement of financial position, which may provide information on conditions that arise after the reporting date, are disclosed, if material, in the notes to the financial statements.

1.27 Statement of Cash Flows

The statement of cash flows is prepared in accordance with the direct method. The Company classifies the cash and cash equivalents with maturity of less than three months, and for which the risk of change in value is negligible. In the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents this accounting caption also includes, where applicable, bank overdrafts, taking into account their nature on a more or less permanent basis and which are reflected in the Statement of Financial Position as a liability.

The statement of cash flows comprises operating, investing and financing activities.

Operating activities include cash received from customers and payments to suppliers, staff and other related operational activities.

Cash flows from investing activities include the acquisitions and disposals of investments in subsidiaries and receipts and payments arising from the purchase and sale of intangible and tangible assets.

Financing activities include, essentially, payments and receipts relating to loans, leasing contracts and partnership / investment funds of economic players.

1.28 Other non-recurring expenses

According to the established in IAS 1, the "Other non-recurring expenses" reflects unusual costs that should be reported separately from the usual captions of costs, taking into account their nature and magnitude in the context of the company's financial statements.

1.29 Critical Accounting estimates and judgements in applying accounting policies

IFRS establishes a set of accounting treatments and requires the Board of Directors to apply judgment and make estimates that affect the amounts of income, expenses, assets, liabilities and disclosures at the reporting date.

These estimates are determined by the judgments of the Board, based on: (i) the best information and knowledge of present events and in some cases reports of independent experts and (ii) the actions which the Company believes that will be able to develop in the future. However, on the date of completion of operations, the results may differ from these estimates.

The results of the alternatives analyzed below are presented only for a better understanding of the financial statements and are not intended to suggest that other alternatives or estimates would be more appropriate.

Impairment of intangible assets - Squad

The impairment of intangible assets is analyzed when there are facts or circumstances which indicate that their net amount is not recoverable.

As previously mentioned, Sporting SAD conducts a periodic review of the valuation of their squad in order to validate the existence of possible impairment losses.

The process of analyzing a possible impairment of athlete's registration is subject to estimates and assumptions that involve a number of variables such as temporary transfer of the player to other clubs, age, the number of games they have not played, injury, punishment, termination contracts of work sports, among others.

Impairment of intangible assets - surface rights Stadium

Sporting SAD tests annually for impairment purposes, the surface rights that is recorded on the statement of financial position in accordance with the accounting policy described above. The recoverable amount of the cash generating unit (Stadium) is determined based on the calculation of value in use. These calculations require the use of estimates.

Estimating the value in use involves a high degree of judgment by the Board of Directors, regarding the determination of expected cash flows and discount rates.

Useful lives of tangible fixed assets

The determination of the useful lives of tangible assets as well as the determination of the residual value and depreciation method to be applied is essential to determine the amount of depreciation to be recognized in the income statement for each year.

These parameters are defined according to the best judgment of the Board of Directors for the assets and businesses in question, taking into consideration the international practices adopted by other SAD's / clubs.

Pension supplements and other employee benefits

The determination of liabilities for pensions and other employee benefits requires the use of assumptions and estimates, including the use of actuarial projections, discount rates, growth of pensions and wages and other factors that could impact the costs and responsibilities of post-employment benefits.

Amortized cost of financing obtained

The calculation of the amortized cost of loans obtained by the Company, including those which are related to the financial restructuring under the agreement of November 2014, in addition to reimbursement with defined maturity, considers an estimate of anticipated debt repayments resulting from revenues from participation in European competitions and sales of players, as well as cash sweep mechanisms in the event that at the end of each year there is an excess of cash flow compared to the initial estimates, provided for in the business plan for the period elapsing between the years of 2014/2015 and 2021/2022.

Credit Risk

Impairment losses related to credit risk are based on the assessment by the Board of Directors on the probability of recovery of accounts receivable balances, aging of balances, debt cancellation and other factors.

The impairment loss assessment process is subject to numerous estimates and judgments, and there are certain circumstances and facts that may change the estimate of impairment losses of receivables when compared to the assumptions considered.

Provisions

Estimates made by the Board of Directors for the establishment of recognized provisions and disclosure of contingent liabilities are based on the best information available at the date of approval of the financial statements, including the opinion of the Legal Department of the Company and external lawyers with whom Sporting SAD works.

Income Tax

The determination of the total amount of taxes on profits requires certain interpretations and estimates. There are many transactions and calculations for which the determination of the final amount of tax payable is uncertain during the ordinary course of business.

The Tax Authorities are entitled to review the calculation of the taxable amount paid by the Company for a period of four years except when there are tax losses, tax benefits were granted, or ongoing inspections, complaints or disputes exists, in which case depending on the circumstances, the deadlines are extended or suspended.

2. SALES AND SERVICES RENDERED

Thus, there may be corrections to the tax base, resulting mainly from differences in the
interpretation of tax legislation. However, it is the opinion of the Board that there will be
no significant corrections to the income tax recorded in the financial statements.

Renewals of employments contracts

The acquisitions above do not include variable purchase values contingent upon compliance with certain conditions relating to sports, individual and collective performance, the players and the Sporting and / or % of capital gains from future transfers - see Note 32.

"Other expenses" refer to the expenses related to the acquisition of economic rights of the players, namely expenses with intermediation services, signing bonuses, solidarity mechanisms, federal taxes and other charges.

Expenses related to the acquisition of registration rights of professional football players are included in the initial acquisition cost whenever they are not dependent on future conditions that are not fully under the control of SAD, in particular where the payments are dependent on the maintenance of the employment contract with the player.

Consequently when the related payments are dependent with the prolongation of the employment contract with the player such future obligations are not considered in the original purchase price and, consequently, in the related liability, and recognized in earnings in the cadence of service. The commitments arising from these agreements are disclosed in Note 29.

The disposals of sporting and economic rights of players during the years ended on 30 June 2016 and 2015 are detailed in Note 9.

The "Other intangible assets" corresponds to the transfer of surface rights (on the José
Alvalade stadium and the multisport building), by Sporting Clube de Portugal to the SPM.
This transfer took place on 2006 with a term of 25 years for the initial amount of Euro
163,894 thousand and SPM became responsible for the stadium's maintenance,

The "Other intangible assets" corresponds to the transfer of surface rights (on the José Alvalade stadium and the multisport building), by Sporting Clube de Portugal to the SPM. This transfer took place on 2006 with a term of 25 years for the initial amount of Euro 163,894 thousand and SPM became responsible for the stadium's maintenance, management and operations. During the current period also occurred the extension of their rights in the amount of Euro 73 million, whose term expires on April 2063.

The surface rights were incorporated in the statement of financial position of Sporting SAD under the merge between Sporting SAD and SPM – See Introductory Note.

On 30 June 2017, Sporting SAD has calculated the recoverable amount of the stadium's surface rights, by determining the usage value allocated to the cash generating unit (stadium), according to the method of discounted cash flows considering a discount rate (WACC) of 7,6% (30 June 2016, 8,6%). The calculations are based on historical performance and business development expectations of operating the stadium with the current structure, and used an estimate of cash flows until the end of the period of duty (year 2063).

In the scope of this test, the revenue from the operation of the stadium was considered, with the current structure, such as tickets (boxes, business seats, lion seats and ordinary

tickets) but also revenue from advertising and sponsorships. The CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of revenue considered in the impairment test amounted to 2,82% (30 June 2016: 2,3%).

13. OTHER NON-CURRENT ASSETS
On 30 June 2017, the test was computed with an increase of 0.5% in the WACC used. It led
to a decrease in the valuation of Euro 12,443 thousand. However the recoverable amount
of the stadium's surface rights' value is still higher than the net book value of the asset, and
so no impairment loss was identified.
As a result of the calculations, no impairment loss was identified.
Regarding to expenses considered in the scope of the test, all the expenses such as the
management expenses, costs of operation and of maintenance, were also assumed to have
an increase in line with inflation for the projection period of 2% (30 June 2016: 2%). The
test also included capex maintenance and replacement costs.
2016: 2,3%).

On the 31 July 2001, the equity amount increased to Euro 54.9 million by public deed.

This increase on the equity amount was made by converting Sporting Clube de Portugal and Sporting-SGPS's debt to equity. The partial amounts were Euro 3.05 million and Euro 16.95 million respectively.

Also, on this public deed from July 2001, the equity was converted from Escudos to Euro. This conversion was made applying the standard method, converting the shares net book value from Escudo 1000 to Euro 4.99. This operation has rounded each share to the nearest Euro cent and it has led to a consequent increase in capital of Euro 22.230 thousand (Escudo 4,456,980) against retained earnings. The equity conversion process has ended on the 11 October 2001.

On 2 September 2002 were listed on the Second Market 4 million shares corresponding to the capital increase mentioned above.

This increase in the capital amount was undertaken by issuance of 10 million new registered shares with a nominal value of Euro 2 and a premium of Euro 0.65 each, generating a prize pool of shares amounting to Euro 6.5 million.

The movement of the current provisions during the half year ended 31 December 2015 resulted in a recorded loss that arose from litigation with Doyen (Note 10).

This provision also includes the amount of Euros 1,950 thousand refers to player Zakaria Labyad.

On August of 2012, Sporting SAD celebrated with Doyen two contracts designated ERPA (Economic Rights Participation Agreement) relative to players Marcos Rojo and Zakaria Labyad. On 14 August 2014, subject to the nullity of contracts with Doyen related to players Marcos Rojo and Zakaria Labyad, Sporting SAD proceeded to the its resolution with just cause accusing the fund of violating repeatedly and intentionally their obligations of noninterference with the internal life in SAD, not to force the transfer of players, and confidentiality, Sporting SAD also defends the nullity of contracts for violating the law and morality.

Both Sporting SAD, as Doyen have established lawsuits in the Court of Arbitration for Sport (TAS / CAS), that by a judgement delivered on 21 December 2015, decided the validity of the ERPA for the players Marcos Rojo and Zakaria Labyad and therefore sentenced Sporting SAD to pay the amount of Euro 12,013,990 plus interests. It is also conferred to Doyen the right to receive 75% of the amount that Sporting SAD will be earn in virtue of their right to 20% of up to Euro 23,000,000 in a future sale of the player Marcos Rojo by Manchester United.

Sporting SAD has brought to the Swiss Supreme Court an action requesting the annulment of the decision described above that confirmed the TAS decision by sentence on 13 December of 2016. Doyen has started to perform its executive diligences in Switzerland, which are running on its terms that led to the withhold of credits of Sporting SAD by UEFA. UEFA retained the sum of Euros 19,400,435 subject to a Swiss court order, of which Euros 2,292,435 was released by the Court to Doyen in April 2017. As early as August 2017, it was returned to Sporting SAD the amount of Euros 2,820,703.60 that had been withheld in excess. The revenues of the Champions League, with reference to the edition 2017/18 are not pawned.

Doyen required, to Tribunal da Relação de Lisboa, the reconnaissance of the TAS/CAS sentence. Sporting SAD has argued that this action decision is against public order since (i) Sporting is deemed to pay interest to usuary (ii) it includes contracts that violate the fundamental rights of the players; (iii) it includes contracts that violate the rules of EU rights and workers circulation freedom regarding this last point. Sporting required the court to suspend the instance so that several questions ccould be placed to UE justice court. The court accepted UEFA and FIFA constitution as Sporting's assistants on process. Up to this the court has not pronounce any decision.

The Bank loans and Leasing's amount as of 30 June 2017 result from the finance restructuring plan signed on November 2014 by Sporting Group with the banks Millennium BCP SA and Novo Banco SA. This restructuring has contemplated a substantial modification of the terms and conditions of the existing bank loans at that date, as defined in the Framework Agreement of the restructuring plan and the financing agreements.

As consequence of the debt restructuring process, not only the financial liability was disregarded from the accounts but also the commissions incurred. Additionally, a new financial liability arose.

At baseline, the recognition of the new financial liability was calculated at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. The recognition was based on existing market rates on that date and a capital repayment plan along the maturity under contract. It also included an estimate of anticipated debt repayments resulting from: (i) part of allocation mechanisms in revenues from any participation in European competitions; (ii) sales of players; (iii) cash sweep mechanisms in the event of having an excess of cash flow at the end of the year as compared to the initial estimates. Those estimates were provided in the business plan for the period elapsing between the financial years 2014/2015 and 2021/2022.

These differences between the accounting and tax results may be temporary or permanent.

Sporting, SAD uses sensitivity analysis technique that calculates the changes estimated in its own results and equity in the hypothetic case of an immediate increase or decrease in market interest rates, with all other variables constant. This analysis is for illustrative purposes only, as normally market rates rarely change in isolation from the other market variables.

The sensitivity analysis is based on the assumption that changes in market interest rates affect income or interest expense of financial instruments subject to variable rates.

Key Audit Matter Summary of the Audit Approach
Valuation of the football squad
Disclosures related to the squad are presented
in notes 1.5, 1.29, 8, 12.1, 32 and 33 to the
financial statements.
As at 30 June 2017, intangible assets related to
the player registrations recognized in the
financial statements of Sporting SAD amounts
to Euro 60 million, having an impairment loss
of Euro 5.3 million been recognized in the
current year.
The amounts involved, the complexity of the
acquisition contracts related to player
registrations and the level of judgment
associated with the impairment evaluation,
justify that the initial recognition and the
subsequent measurement was considered to be
a relevant matter for the purposes of our audit.
The audit procedures we developed included,
among others, understanding and evaluating
the controls established by the Entity
regarding the valuation of player registrations,
the analysis of the players acquisition contracts
and the adequacy of its recognition, the
performance of tests of details regarding the
subsequent measurement of players
registration, in accordance with the respective
contracts and the players performance, as well
as assessing the reasonableness of the
assumptions used on the valuation of the
player registrations recoverable amount.
We also verify the adequacy of the disclosures
presented in the financial statements related to
the intangible assets - player registrations, as
well as the contingent assets and liabilities
related, based on the applicable accounting
standards and in what we considered relevant.
Borrowings measurement
Disclosures related to borrowings are
presented in notes 1.13, 1.14, 1.29, 10, 20 and
31 to the financial statements.
As at 30 June 2017, the amount booked as
borrowings in the financial statements of
Sporting SAD amounts to Euro 127 million,
which result from the financial restructuring
plan contracted in November 2014 with the
financing banks.
The initial recognition of this new financial
liability was carried out at its fair value, based
on existing market rates on that date and on a
capital repayment plan over the whole
maturity, under the terms of the agreement.
The audit procedures we developed included,
among others, analysing the reasonableness of
the assumptions used as well as the
calculations incorporated for the
determination of the amount recognized in the
financial statements, in accordance with IAS
39 – Financial Instruments: measurement and
recognition.
We have used our specialists to assist us in
analysing the assumptions, methodologies and
re-execution of the calculations embodied on
the borrowings measurement.
We inquired the Management about the
adequacy and consistency of the assumptions
used, namely the estimate and timing of the
anticipated reimbursements related to the
financial debt.
Given the amounts involved and the degree of
judgment embodied in measuring the
borrowings related to the financial
restructuring, which require the definition of
estimates and assumptions by the
Management, namely about determining the

confirmation from the financing banks

revenue with potential participation in
European competitions and sales of players, as
well as from cash sweep mechanisms

was considered to be a relevant matter for the
purposes of our audit.

disclosures presented in the financial
statements, based on the applicable accounting
standards and in what we considered relevant.
