The Board of Directors of "Teixeira Duarte, S.A." (TD,SA), in compliance with the regulatory and legal provisions for publicly traded companies, hereby presents its management report for the financial year of 2013.
The present report will address the consolidated activity of TD,SA as leader of the Business Group comprising the universe of holdings identified in the table of the "Teixeira Duarte Group - 2013" presented on the preliminary pages, and will disclose only brief notes on the Company in its individual capacity, namely with respect to the proposed appropriation of net income.
Since each of these units has its own management bodies, which report on their individual activities, this document will provide only some observations for the purpose of allowing for a better perspective of the Group as a whole.
In this context and in order to assess the development of the activity of these companies more appropriately, note will also be made, where justified, of some of their individual economic and financial indicators.
The most appropriate way of presenting the topics of the present Report will be to start with a brief description of the economic background, followed by an overall assessment of the action of the Teixeira Duarte Group, focusing on the most significant data relative to transversal and integrated matters concerning the Corporate Centre.
The subsequent chapters will address the Group's different activity sectors, with an analysis of the respective performance over 2013, distinguishing for each the main markets of action, with particular emphasis on the Construction area.
Reference will also be made to the significant stakes held in listed companies during 2013, that is "Banco Comercial Português, S.A." and "Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A.".
The relevant events that took place between the end of the financial year and the date on which this Report was prepared will then be described, followed by the outlook for 2014, currently in progress, ending with the proposed appropriation of net income.
Attached to this document are, under the applicable legislation, tables with the different information relative to the holdings in the share capital of TD,SA (namely pursuant to the provisions in articles 447 and 448 of the Commercial Companies Code and CMVM Regulation number 5/2008), as well the detailed report on the Company's structure and corporate governance practices (prepared in compliance with article 245- A of the Securities Market Code and CMVM Regulation number 4/2013).
Moreover, this report also includes the individual and consolidated financial statements with the respective notes, where the former were prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standardisation System (SNC) and the latter pursuant to the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted in the European Union, as well as the respective Reports and Opinions of the Audit Bodies, the Legal Certification of Accounts and the Audit Report produced by an auditor registered at the Portuguese Securities Market Commission (CMVM).
Under the terms and for the purposes of subparagraph c) of paragraph 1 of Article 245 of the Securities Market Code, the undersigned state that, to the best of their knowledge, the Management Report, the annual accounts, the legal certification of accounts and all other documents presenting the accounts were prepared in accordance with the applicable accounting standards, conveying a true and fair view of the assets and liabilities, the financial position and results of TD,SA and of the companies included in its consolidation perimeter, and also faithfully reflect the business development, performance and position of each company, containing a description of the main risks and uncertainties they face.
Brief notes are presented below on the economic context observed in 2013 in the main markets of operation of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
During 2013, in Portugal, Teixeira Duarte operated in the Construction, Concessions and Services, Real Estate, Hotel Services, Distribution, Energy and Automotive sectors.
Throughout 2013, the Portuguese economy continued with the correction of the macroeconomic imbalances through a series of budget consolidation measures and an ordered and gradual deleveraging of the private sector, which culminated in strong contraction of internal demand.
Placed under the Economic and Financial Assistance Programme (PAEF), these measures have been implemented in a very adverse international macroeconomic context, namely due to the recession experienced in the euro zone.
Accordingly, some of the main internal and external economic imbalances in Portugal have been corrected, primarily in terms of the structural consolidation of public accounts, the improvement of the foreign trade balance, reflected in a net funding capacity of the Portuguese economy, and the reallocation of resources towards the sectors producing tradable goods and services.
In 2013, the unemployment rate stood at 16.3%. However, this rate reached the historically high level of 17.8% in April 2013, having fallen back to 15.5% by December of the same year. In comparison with the preceding year, an exacerbation was recorded in this indicator, which had stood at 15.7%.
The budget deficit ended 2013 at 4.9% of gross domestic product (GDP), a value below the target agreed with the troika, which was 5.9%.
There was a 4.6% increase in Portuguese exports in 2013, albeit reflecting a slowdown in relation to the 5.7% increase recorded in 2012. Imports increased by 0.8% (-5.2% in 2012), which enabled a coverage of 83.6% in 2013, compared to 80.6% in 2012.
The figures achieved are determinant for our external balance, namely through the reduction of 1,630 million euros in the trade balance.
According to the 11th assessment of the troika, whose conclusions were disclosed on 28 February, the forecast growth of GDP for 2014 is 1.2%, whereas GPD contracted by 1.4% in 2013, and 5.5% growth of exports.
During 2013, in Angola, Teixeira Duarte operated in the Construction, Concessions and Services, Real Estate, Hotel Services, Distribution and Automotive sectors.
According to the most recent projections of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the growth of the Angolan economy stood at 5.6%, and it is expected that this figure should remain high during the next few years. This evolution has also been the result of the attention that has been given to education and training, with direct impact on the availability of qualified labour.
The objective defined for 2013 of maintaining the inflation rate at one-digit levels has been achieved, with this rate having reached a value around 9%. This, in spite of the intended and accomplished "de-dollarization", through the obligation of payments made by the oil sector in the internal market being exclusively in national currency, leading to an increase of the monetary mass in circulation greater pressure on internal demand. The stable exchange rate also contributed positively to this evolution.
During 2013, in Algeria, Teixeira Duarte operated in the Construction sector.
Over the last few years, the Algerian economy has shown a very positive evolution, primarily due to the good performance of the oil and gas sector, which accounts for around 40% of GDP, 70% of State revenue and 98% of exports.
According to IMF estimates, the growth of the Algerian economy stood at 3.1% in 2013.
The projections for 2014 and subsequent years point to growth rates above 3%, supported not only by the expected recovery of the hydrocarbon sector, but also by the buoyancy of all other economic activities, particularly the services and construction sector, with construction being strongly driven by the public investment programme launched by the government.
During 2013, in Brazil, Teixeira Duarte operated in the Construction, Concessions and Services, Real Estate and Distribution sectors.
Brazil is the principal economy of Latin America, and the seventh largest world economy, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and Centre for Economics and Business Research (CEBR).
GDP growth closed the year at 2.3% in 2013, according to data published by the Brazilian Institute for Geography and Statistics (IBGE). In a list of countries selected and presented by this institute, the growth of the Brazilian economy in 2013 appears as the third largest at a worldwide level, following the expansion of 7.7% of China and 2.8% of South Korea.
Under the objective of the Central Bank to counter the surplus demand, in April 2013 and in response to the deterioration of the inflationary scenario during the last two years, the Monetary Policy Committee (COPOM) started a new upward cycle in benchmark interest rates, when the short term interest rate of the Brazilian economy (Selic) stood at 7.25% a.a., after almost two years without increase. This economic policy is expected to be maintained in 2014, making credit more expensive and stimulating saving.
For 2014, the IMF has forecast a contribution of the emerging and developing countries to world economic growth that will continue above 70%. In the specific case of Brazil, the IMF forecasts the same growth as in 2013, that is, 2.3%.
Most of Teixeira Duarte's activity in Spain during 2013 was conducted in the Concessions and Services, and Real Estate sectors.
GDP at current prices reached the value of 1,022,988 million euros, corresponding to a reduction of 1.22% in relation to 2012. However, in the fourth quarter of 2013, growth of 0.2% was record in relation to the previous quarter, which could indicate the onset of economic recovery.
In Spain, the unemployment rate at the end of the year stood at 26.03%, albeit 1.17% lower than that recorded in 2012.
The first quarter of 2014 confirms the upturn of the Spanish economy, with the continuation of GDP growth and employment creation. It is expected that the recovery of private consumption should continue, although at a lower rate than that recorded in the second semester of 2013.
Spain thus pursues its fiscal consolidation programme, currently in a more economically favourable environment.
In Mozambique, during 2013, Teixeira Duarte operated in the Construction, Concessions and Services, Real Estate and Hotel Service sectors. It is estimated that real GDP growth in Mozambique should have reached 7.5% in 2013.
Exports and direct foreign investment have continued strong, and equally relevant has been the renewed commitment of the authorities in pursuing prudent economic policies which foster a sustainable growth of the economy.
It is also important to highlight the reduction of the unemployment rate, derived from the creation of over 260,000 new jobs in 2013, as well as the fact that the forecast inflation rate stands at 4.2%, in contrast to the estimates which pointed to an inflation rate of around 7.5%.
Teixeira Duarte operates in this country in the Construction sector.
In Venezuela the performance of the economy is linked to the export of oil and, consequently, to the evolution of oil prices on international markets. Venezuela produced an average of 2.3 million barrels/day in 2013, with an average price above 95 USD/barrel. Venezuela is considered the fourth largest economy of Latin America (accounting for 8% of the economy of South America).
GDP recorded growth of 0.7% and inflation reached 56.2% in 2013. It is also important to note that in February 2013, the Bolívar (VEF) depreciated by 46.5% relative to the Dollar (USD), with the exchange rate standing at 6.3 VEF/USD.
In spite of this macroeconomic context and the difficult overall international circumstances, the Venezuelan government continued to focus all its energy on social policies and investment in the country's infrastructures, maintaining coherent action which has given rise to increasingly better social indicators.
The financial elements analysed herein are consolidated and, as such, are prepared in accordance with the International Accounting Standards (IAS/IFRS).

Turnover increased by 14.3% relative to 2012, having reached 1,580,959 thousand euros.
The decline of 16.5% recorded in Portugal was largely offset by the 25% increase in the foreign market, which now represents 81.2% of the total turnover of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
The table below reflects the decline recorded in Portugal and the growth achieved in the other countries in which the Group operates, especially the Venezuelan market, reflecting this country's importance in the Group's order book for the Construction sector.

Although no impairment losses were recorded in 2013, compared to the 26,596 thousand euros of impairment losses stated in 2012, this indicator reflects an unfavourable variation relative to 2012, mainly due to the following factors:
Income Tax reached the positive amount of 51,947 thousand euros for the year ended on 31 December 2013, compared with the negative amount of 37,125 thousand euros for 2012.

Deferred taxes increased significantly relative to 2012, primarily due to the recording of deferred tax assets related to the change in Corporate Income Tax (IRC) of the statement for tax purposes of capital gains and capital losses of holdings, to the value of 65,487 thousand euros.

Evolution of Consolidated Net
(Values in thousand euros)
Debt
The Group's Net Debt grew by 18.5% in relation to the end of 2012, to stand at 1,172,694 thousand euros as at 31 December 2013.
The growth of business in the Construction, Concessions and Services and Distribution sectors, which resulted in the increased credit receivable from third parties, namely due to the reduction of the balance of advances received, as well as the continued investment to expand in these sectors, of the value of 108,183 thousand euros, were the main contributing factors to the increased net debt of the Group.
Equity Attributable to Shareholders increased by 73,402 thousand euros, from 252,005 thousand euros to 325,407 thousand euros, corresponding to an increase of 29.1% in relation to 31 December 2012.
Non-controlling Interests decreased by 38,542 thousand euros, from 73,863 thousand euros to 35,321 thousand euros, corresponding to a decrease of 52.2% in relation to 31 December 2012.
This decrease was essentially due to the acquisition of 48% of the participated company "C+P.A. - Cimento e Produtos Associados, S.A.", which is now exclusively held by the Group.
Total Equity grew by 10.7% to stand at 360,728 thousand euros, influenced essentially by the following factors:
Financial Autonomy shifted from 11.8% as at 31 December 2012 to 13.0% by the end of 2013, having increased by 10.1%.
Notwithstanding the more detailed description of this matter in the "Corporate Governance Report" attached herewith, it is important to note at this point, with respect to the performance of the Teixeira Duarte Group in the different business sectors and markets, the close collaboration between all the structures, identified in the Organisational Chart presented in the beginning of this Report, as well as the added value arising from these synergies, which are reflected in the privileged and efficient means of achieving collectively undertaken objectives.
The Group's Operating Structures are organised by Activity Sector and, as a rule, cover the responsibility for all the teams and operations of these business areas, regardless of the geographical market in which they operate, thus also ensuring that the Group's central technical and human resources are in close contact with those operating in the different markets of Teixeira Duarte.
Even so, it should also be noted that there are occasional situations of some entities within the Group which, in view of the particularity of their business, maintain their respective specificity, especially in the Construction, Concessions and Services sectors.
"Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A." (TD-EC), as the leading company of the Group in the Construction sector, develops its activity through Operating Centres, which divide up the production areas and are essential in the training of senior management staff and follow-up of their career, and also has a series of specialised Supporting Structures for the Operating Centres, in particular in the areas of Shuttering and Prestressing, Equipment and Materials Laboratory, as well as various Central Departments which operate at a Commercial, Studies and Project level.
Apart from these structures which are more directly linked to the Group's operational area, particular reference should also be made to the existence of a number of Central Departments and Services with special responsibilities of transversal support to the actions developed in the different activity sectors, integrated in the Corporate Centre, entrusted with promoting a standardisation of procedures and providing support to the structures operating abroad in these areas common to various businesses.
Regarding these teams, which are also identified in the Organisational Chart presented in the beginning of this report, various references to their action during 2013 are highlighted below.
In terms of Human Resources, Teixeira Duarte pursued an action of adjustment of the number of workers to the activities carried out in the different sectors and markets, promoting the personal and professional development of its employees.
The Group's increased activity in 2013 was indisputably reflected in the number of workers, the average number of which grew by 10.7% in relation to 2012 and whose final number at the end of the year was 13.8% higher than that recorded as at 31 December 2012.
Indeed, the increased number of workers from 11,110 as at 31 December 2012, to 12,639 on the same date of 2013, reflected the expansion in the teams of the Construction, Concessions and Services, Distribution and Automotive sectors, where the countries that most contributed to this increase were Angola, Brazil, Mozambique and Venezuela.
On this issue, note should also be made of the continued investment of Teixeira Duarte in the training of its employees, with the Central Department of Human Resources pursuing a driving and supporting effort not only at the level of TD-EC and Portugal, but also in all the other companies of the Group and geographic markets in which they operate, embodied especially in its support to the vast amount of travel and re-location of workers required to follow the flow of activity of Teixeira Duarte.
In this context, the diversified Vocational Training actions have continued, in particular, in Portugal, the specific training in the areas of Occupational Safety, Hygiene and Health (which involved 474 trainees) and training in the area of information technology (which involved 177 trainees), as well as the training given by Bauer, with 40 hours duration, ministered by a trainer of the brand, which covered 20 engineers, placed in various geographic areas.
Furthermore, the Group intensified its support through physical attendance in various countries during 2013, namely in Angola, Algeria, Spain and Mozambique, for the particular purpose of replicating its vocational training model.
Various training courses and actions were ministered in Angola, in particular:
Also in this country, Teixeira Duarte developed a project in the context of vocational training and social responsibility, attended during ten months by 32 young people, qualifying them to exercise professional activity in the automotive and distribution sectors, in the Group, where they are currently all employed. This course has improved their personal and family living conditions, and also helps to encourage further study.
We also highlight the extending of the activities of the occupational medicine team to all the companies of the Group operating in other geographic areas, most particularly in Angola, Algeria and Mozambique.
In 2013, the Occupational Medicine Service covered 20 Group companies, corresponding to over 3,250 employees, with 2,567 medical examinations having been conducting, representing a 76% increase in relation to the previous year.
During the year under review, the Central Department of Management and Technology Systems maintained its activity of support to the processes of achievement, monitoring or renewal of the certifications of the Management Systems of the different companies of the Group, in the areas of Safety, Quality, Environment, Social Responsibility, and Research, Development and Innovation (RDI). Particular note should be made of the series of audits conducted jointly with third parties, and the alignment of the Quality and Research, Development and Innovation certification cycles among the companies holding this accreditation. This represents an objective that is intended to be continued and developed for all the other certifications.
Continuity has been given to the process of harmonisation of the management systems among the different Group companies, as well as the conduct of internal audits in the inter-company format.
Supplementing its enrolment at the the REPRO Platform as an assessed supplier, the participated company "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A." conducted an "ACHILLES Audit" defined in accordance with the "REPRO Committee Standards", with this audit having been passed satisfactorily and the results included in this platform.
In view of the importance of knowledge networks in the development of Research, Development and Innovation activities, the support given to Teixeira Duarte's productive structures has been maintained, in its integration and participation in the working parties of scientific societies and technological platforms, in increasingly closer collaboration with national universities and laboratories and in the search for new knowledge involving the construction industry.
In the area of training, employees of this Central Department participate in the organisation of post-graduate training courses of technological nature in Angola and Mozambique, carried out in collaboration with "Instituto Superior Técnico de Lisboa" (Portugal's largest engineering, science, technology and architecture university college) and "FUNDEC" (Association for Training and Development in Civil Engineering and Architecture", with the double objective of continuous training and integration of new staff in these geographic areas.
The Central Department of Information Technology has continuously driven its action towards harmonising and consolidating the existing platforms in the Group, standardising technologies, processes and procedures, fostering the growing improvement of its support to users through the creation of local structures, with the ultimate objective being alignment with business needs and contributing to the success of the business.
Operating on various fronts, the coverage of the ERP/SAP has been extended to new companies, in particular in Angola and Brazil, the integration of the different business applications has been improved, expanding and adjusting the coverage of processes. New applications have been developed, in Portal environment, to support different functional areas.
Significant advances have been recorded in the area of communications with the introduction of a video-conference platform, consolidation of electronic mail platforms, restructuring of VOIP connections and interconnection of the different business locations in Luanda through optical fibre network.
The Portal of the Teixeira Duarte Group continued to be a privileged vehicle of internal communication, providing useful services to the employees, in particular in their relations with the Company. This platform recorded a strong increase of requests by other structures of the Group for the inclusion of more services, leading to the creation of new applications and adaptations of those existing for use in other geographic areas.
The infrastructures of the Data Centre were reviewed and, based on the audit that was made, project blueprints were prepared, adjusted to the requirements of each business, which will become the standard. The equipment has been renovated and resized, and improvements have been made to the data networks, safety and monitoring platforms, in order to reduce risks and reinforce the availability levels of systems.
During 2013, Teixeira Duarte reorganised its Central Department of Finance and Accounting, for the purpose of optimising and standardising processes in all the geographic areas where the Group operates.
The growth recorded in the activities abroad requires the reinforcement of investment in its information technology platform SAP, in order to increase the efficacy of the centralised control of its main processes.
The Central Procurement Department develops its action for the companies of the TD Group which operate in various geographic locations in the following areas:
In Portugal, the functional organisational model implemented in the last quarter of 2011 has been continued, with a view to strengthening the intervention of the Central Procurement Department in the strategic components of procurement carried out for the Group's companies. On the other hand, a new model has been developed to monitor service levels concerning procurement and logistics.
In Angola, the physical reorganisation of the Central Warehouse has been completed and the management model of the Central Procurement Structure maintained.
In Algeria, the models for the management of the logistics of merchandise in export and import contexts and the coordination of the Central Procurement Structure have been maintained.
In Mozambique, the first steps have been taken to restructure the Central Warehouse.
In Venezuela, the restructuring of the Logistics and Import Department has begun, aimed at providing an appropriate response to the Group's growing activity in this country.
In compliance with all the corporate obligations, namely as an entity issuing tradable securities in regulated markets, particular note should be made of the public disclosure of the different information considered relevant in 2013, especially the Management Report and Accounts relative to 2012, as well as the Corporate Governance Report relative to the same period, both approved at the General Meeting.
The General Meeting held on 25 May 2013 recorded the expressive participation of holders of 80.9% of the share capital and voting rights, and approved all the proposals submitted to deliberation, namely the proposed approval of the documents presenting the consolidated and individual accounts, the proposed appropriation of net income submitted by the Board of Directors, the proposals relative to the Appraisal of the Company's Management and Supervisory Bodies, the proposal relative to the Statement on the Remuneration Policy of the Members of the Company's Respective Management and Supervisory Bodies, and the proposed election of a further Director to perform duties together with the other members of the Board of Directors until the end of the 2011/2014 term of office.
The General Meeting approved the Board of Directors' proposal that the individual net income of TD,SA recorded for the financial year of 2012, amounting to € 20,478,206.13 (twenty million, four hundred and seventy-eight thousand, two hundred and six euros and thirteen euro cents), should be appropriated as follows:
Reinforcement of the legal reserve: 4.500.000,00 €; Reinforcement of the free reserves: € 9,678,206.13; and Dividends to shareholders: 6.300.000,00 €.
During 2013, the share price appreciated by 178.13%, increasing from 0.32 euros as at 31 December 2012 to 0.89 euros as at 31 December 2013.
Regarding liquidity and turnover during this year, 25,042,008 shares were traded on the stock market, with a total turnover of 15,917,459.97 euros.
The graph below shows the evolution of the stock market share prices during 2013.

The activities developed in the different sectors in which the Group operates are presented below, followed by a similar structure for each sector, that is, beginning with a presentation of the respective sector with the Teixeira Duarte Group, after which an explanation will be given, with graphic portrayal of the consolidated Turnover and EBITDA, of the contribution of this business area to the Group, and concluding with a presentation of its action during 2013, accompanied by non-consolidated indicators enabling the analysis and outlook on total activity, rather than that restricted merely to its final contribution to the consolidated figures.
Construction is the core business and point of origin of the Teixeira Duarte Group which, in this sector, operates in the areas of Geotechnics and Rehabilitation, Buildings, Infrastructures, Mechanical Engineering, Underground Works, Railway Works and Maritime Works supported by a Shuttering and Prestressing Operating Centre, a large-scale and highly technological Equipment Department, a Materials Laboratory and a Teixeira Duarte Operating Centre installed on a plot of land covering an area of over 130,000 m² and which is of enormous benefit to the Company and services rendered to its customers.
Special reference should also be made to the Central Departments and structures providing specific support in the Commercial, Studies and Project areas.
Its founder, Mr. Ricardo Esquível Teixeira Duarte, who completed the first course of Civil Engineering taught at Instituto Superior Técnico and performed the duties of Chairman of the Portuguese Engineering Association, has always been recognised by his peers for his technical skills and innovation.
Teixeira Duarte pursued has its action marked by this quality, always being a true Engineering establishment. From major infrastructures such as bridges, dams, roads and other public works, as well as hospitals and large-scale buildings which constitute historic milestones, namely in Portugal, Teixeira Duarte is recognised as synonymous with knowledge and experience, and is a constant presence in the construction market.
In addition to "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A." (TD-EC), which is the Group's principal company, the Group also includes other participated companies, which operate in specific areas of Construction, namely in Underground, Railway and Maritime works, as well as various enterprise groups (ACE) and other similar structures allocated to specific projects, in particular in the area of Infrastructures.
During 2013, Teixeira Duarte operated in this area in various countries, where its main markets were Portugal, Angola, Algeria, Brazil, Mozambique and Venezuela.
In non-consolidated terms and in order to provide an overall view of the total activity during 2013, we disclose that the Group's operating income in the Construction sector reached the total value of 1,034,942 thousand euros, reflecting growth of 23.4% in relation to 2012.
The main activities carried out in the different areas in which Teixeira Duarte operates in the construction sector are presented below:
GEOTECHNICS AND REHABILITATION is the Operating Centre of TD-EC which currently concentrates the areas of Geotechnics and Foundations, as well as Rehabilitation, centralising an engineering and research unit which enjoys a strong reputation within the Company and in the market.
This Operating Centre has shown undergone development of its activity in recent years, of relevance in the Company's overall action, characterised by interventions in projects of high technical complexity and large-scale, both in public and private contracts, based on highly specialised human resources with very strong technical preparation and quality, and supported by specific cutting edge technological equipment.
REFER, EPE | Reinforcement and Rehabilitation of the Foundations of Valença International Bridge Viana do Castelo | Portugal
Sintra City Hall | By-Pass of Rua D. Pedro IV and engineering structure over Carenque Stream Queluz | Sintra | Portugal
In the area of Geotechnics and Foundations, Teixeira Duarte designs and carries out Foundation Engineering Technical Studies, Geological Studies, Diaphragm Walls, Piles, Micro-piles, Nailing, Anchorage, Consolidations, Injections and Jet-Grouting.
In the area of Rehabilitation, Teixeira Duarte operates in the execution of specialised works in the fields of Rehabilitation of Structures and Conservation of Monuments and Constructed Architectural Heritage, as well as Inspections and Diagnosis of Structures.
After the strong increase achieved last year, the activity developed by the Geotechnics and Rehabilitation Operating Centre of TD-EC once again recorded a significant increase in 2013 (close to 30%), having achieved operating income of approximately 82.7 million euros.
This considerable increase was primarily due to the consolidation, in new markets abroad, of the different processes applied in onsite productive development as well as the training and integration of the local teams, and start-up of the use of new equipment and tools.
In Portugal, as a result of the crisis and inherent reduction of tenders, income declined again (by around 33%), standing at the value of 13.7 million euros.
In this area, we highlight the following contract works:
"Hotel Santiago, Civil Construction - Structure" Alfama Lisbon | Portugal
REFER, EPE Slope stabilisation of the Western Line Portugal
In addition to the completion of the contracts referred to above, others were continued, namely:
Considering the strong reduction of public tenders and proposals for the private sector in Portugal, a significant reduction of the turnover in this area is expected in 2014.
In Angola, income reached the value of 19.6 million euros, exceeding the values achieved in 2012 by approximately 26.4%.
Particular note should be made of the completion of the following contract works in this country:
BESAACTIF, S.A. | Excavation, peripheral retaining wall and foundations of "Nossa Senhora da Muxima" Building Luanda | Angola
ANGOLA LNG, Limited | Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) of the Marine Operations Support Dock Soyo | Angola
Other important contract works were started in this country, namely:
In the commercial area, in spite of the minor increase in the number of proposals submitted, there was a 14% reduction in their value, which amounted to 114 million euros.
For 2014, and according to the awards made in the meantime, growth of turnover is forecast in relation to the year under analysis.
In Algeria, 2013 was the second year that this Operating Centre operated through the Algerian company "TEIXEIRA DUARTE ALGÉRIE, SPA".
Therefore, this was a year of natural growth of activity, with the award of new contract works as a consequence of the commercial work started in 2012 and the recognition, by the local market, of the Company's consolidation as a highly qualified partner.
GMAC Special foundations Algiers | Algeria
TD-EC, S.A. Pile foundations of 1500mm of the PK 36 viaduct Tizi Ouzou | Algeria
Business grew significantly, with income having been three times higher than that recorded in 2012.
We highlight the completion of the following contract works in 2013:
We also highlight the contract started during the year underway for the Excavation and Peripheral Retaining Wall of the New Head Office of "AGB - Gulf Bank Algeria", in Algiers.
Commercial activity increased considerably in relation to the previous years, due to the acquired knowledge of the market and its recognition of the technical value represented by Teixeira Duarte. Proposals were submitted to the value of 50 million euros, and awards were received of the value of 5 million euros.
Investment was made in new equipment which will enable expanding and diversifying the area of operation and laying the ground for solid growth in the future, which, associated to the order book carried forward from the previous year and the business proposals advanced with various customers, enables an outlook for 2014 of a significantly higher volume of works.
In Brazil, the Geotechnics and Rehabilitation area recorded a strong increase, derived from the retained loyalty of important private customers, achieved through the implementation of work of high technical and operational quality, which has fostered the increased confidence of customers in the name of Teixeira Duarte, in such an enormous market as the Brazilian.
The value of works reached 18 million euros during 2013, corresponding to an increase of over double in relation to the previous year.
EMPA, S.A. / CR Almeida Group Consortium Foundations at Jurong Shipyard Aracruz | Espírito Santo | Brazil
GAFISA, S.A. Peripheral Retaining Diaphragm Wall and Provisional Tie Rods São Caetano | São Paulo | Brazil
The following contract works were concluded during the period under review:
Other important contract works were started in this country during 2013, namely:
Julius Nyerere 130 Building Maputo | Mozambique
ANE Chicumbane Bridge Gaza | Mozambique
In line with the productive growth achieved during 2013, commercial activity also increased considerably in relation to the previous year, due to better knowledge of the market and our customers' recognition of the technical value represented by the Company in resolving difficult problems, through innovative solutions.
Hence, 2013 closed with the submission of 139 proposals, amounting to a total value of close to 500 million euros.
In view of the prospects of the maintenance or increase of public investment during a year of presidential elections, the order book carried forward from the previous year, the proposals under negotiation with various customers, and the confidence entrusted in our teams, the year of 2014 is envisaged with great optimism.
In Mozambique, the Geotechnics and Rehabilitation Operating Centre reached a turnover of 6.7 million euros in 2013.
Various fairly important works were conducted during the period under review, in particular:
Bolipuertos Expansion and Modernisation of the Port of La Guaira Vargas | Venezuela
Ministry of Popular Power for Land Transport Baralt Tunnel Caracas | Venezuela
In 2013, the commercial area studied proposals of a value close to 60 million euros, a figure slightly above that recorded in the previous period but which represented an increase above 45% in the number of proposals submitted, which enables envisaging 2014 as a year of growth of activity.
In Venezuela, 2013 was strongly marked by the high rate of production imposed by the two large-scale public contract works underway, started in 2012, and in which the geotechnics sector had a major involvement: the "Expansion and Modernisation of the Port of La Guaira" and the "Extension of Avenida Boyaca (thousand mark) up to Macayapa Junction and Extension of Tacagua Viaduct".
The turnover of the activity doubled in relation to 2012, having reached 20.5 million euros.
At the Port of La Guaira Port work, the year was marked by the accomplishment of the defined objectives, both concerning the execution of the breakwater pier and the treatment of the landfills of the new area to be operated. These activities highlighted the exceptional experience of the teams, the implemented techniques and cutting edge equipment used by Teixeira Duarte.
Regarding the Extension of Avenida Boyaca (thousand mark) up to Macayapa Junction and Extension of Tacagua Viaduct" work, in particular the execution of Baralt Tunnel and Macayapa Access Junction, it is important to highlight the work on slope containment and stabilisation carried out with recognised quality, as well as the good production rates achieved.
The commercial activity of the Geotechnics and Rehabilitation sector followed-up and participated in the preparation of important proposals under the agreement referred to above, although a slowdown of the activity of this area is forecast in this market for 2014.
In Equatorial Guinea, Teixeira Duarte continued to support Portuguese companies through the execution of pile foundations of the contract for the construction of the National Hydrocarbon Institute and the execution of piles of 800 mm diameter in the "Del Paso Superior en el PK0 para el Enlace de Autovía Mongomeyen-Ebibeyin con la carretera Añisok-Mongomo en Guinea Ecuatorial" construction work .
The commercial area recorded the submission of proposals of the value of 13.5 million euros, where we highlight the proposal submitted for the foundations of the work of expansion of the Port of Luba, on Malabo island, of the value of 8 million euros.
The Company continues to expect that new contracts will be achieved in this country, linked to the areas of Geotechnics and Foundations and Maritime Works.
Following the above and in view of the proposals that are currently under negotiation, namely in Brazil, Angola and Equatorial Guinea, and the present order book, it is expected that there will be significant growth in activity.
In the BUILDINGS area, TD-EC maintains a highly dynamic activity and which has been of particular relevance in the overall activity of the Group since the 1960's.
In this field, the intervention in the markets is characterised by the development of projects that are large-scale and of high technical complexity, covering all types of construction: major complex and multi-purpose buildings, public, residential and service buildings, industrial complexes, schools, tourist developments, reconstruction of buildings and hospitals.
In 2013, the activity in this area of Buildings increased by around 28%.
The production carried out in Portugal continued to decline, and currently accounts for less than 10% of the total of the area of Buildings. Various consecutive years of economic retraction in the country have led to very low levels of investment and consequently an enormous slump in the launch of tenders, both public and for private customers.
In this context, commercial activity has continued and been reinforced in the different markets in which Teixeira Duarte operates in this area of construction, with the Angolan market having been the one which has most contributed to the volume of activity.
In Portugal, due to the reasons presented above, a minor number of proposals was submitted. The low prices applied in the market are taking a large number of companies of the sector along the path towards insolvency, dragging with them an important part of the network of suppliers and outsourcers, underlying the country's building construction industry. A reflection of these circumstances was seen in the fact that the production for the year under review was around 50% lower than in 2012.
In the area of school buildings, the contract work for the C - Gym Building of the 2nd and 3rd Cycles of Colégio Moderno in Lisbon, was executed for "Colégio Moderno de João Soares e Filhos, Lda.".
In the industrial area, the works for the LPG Storage Terminal in the Port of Aveiro - General Contract Phase 2, for the company of the Teixeira Duarte Group "PPS - Produtos Petrolíferos S.A." were completed.
In the service sector, the construction contracts for the Multi-purpose Building in Vila Nova de Gaia and Media Studios in Lisbon for IURD were completed.
In the health area, work was continued for "Centro Hospitalar São João - E.P.E." with various interventions involving the remodelling and modernisation of São João Hospital, in Porto, while in Lisbon, the Civil Construction, Special Facilities and Outdoor Arrangements of the Counterpart Building (Day and Health Care Centre) work was started for Multiusos Oriente Closed Real Estate Investment Fund.
Colégio Moderno Gym of the 2nd and 3rd Cycles Lisbon | Portugal
PPS, S.A. LPG Storage Terminal at the Port of Aveiro Aveiro | Portugal
In Angola, during 2013, this construction area achieved its highest volume of production ever, largely as a result of two very large-scale and complex works which, in this year, reached their peak invoicing, due to both having reached their final phase. These works are:
With the completion of these two contracts, at the end of 2013 and in the first semester of 2014, it is expected that there will be a reduction of building construction activity in this country in 2014.
Included among other contract works under development, special reference should be made of the following in particular:
GOE National Assembly of Angola Luanda | Angola
In Algeria, Teixeira Duarte was awarded the work for the Official Residence project in the city of Constantine, in Algeria, whose contract was signed in 2014 with "Direction de l'Administration Locale de la Wilaya de Constantine". This represents the first Buildings work in this market, which consists of the construction of a multipurpose building for accommodation needs for distinguished guests, which is planned to be executed in 20 months.
In Brazil, Teixeira Duarte continued, in the states of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, with the expansion of the operation in the Buildings area
FUJB Basic-Clinical Integration Project: More Research for Health Rio de Janeiro | Brazil
CHERY BRASIL, Lda. Civil construction works of the welding, assembly and painting workshops Jacarei | São Paulo | Brazil
with customers outside the Group, where, due to its strict compliance with contracts and attitude of helpfulness and collaboration, relations have been consolidated with various customers who have awarded new contracts and others have been attracted, with the intention of securing their future loyalty.
Reference should be made to the following contract works in 2013:
In the residential area, the construction of the "Quartier Vila Mascote" Condominium, in São Paulo, for a company of the real estate sector of the Teixeira Duarte Group was completed.
Anglo American Minério de Ferro Brasil, S.A. Various buildings in the Port of Açu Rio de Janeiro | Brazil
Hospital de Clinicas de Niterói Lda. Scouts Building Niterói | Rio de Janeiro | Brazil
The company continues to strengthen its teams so that it is able to accompany the progressive growth of the contracts awarded in this country.
In Spain, in view of the slump in activity of the market in 2013, the company participated in some of the few public tenders, and in 2014 we shall continue with the effort directed at achieving contracts.
In Mozambique, in 2013, while the turnover of the Buildings area was approximately 15% higher than that of the previous year, it was lower than that of 2010 and 2011.
In spite of the fact that ore proposals were submitted than in previous years, the substantial increase of the number of companies in the market implied that the volume of contracts did not accompany the increased proposals to the same extent, since very low prices continued to be applied by companies with no experience in the country.
In 2014, the Group will carefully follow the evolution of activity in the new development focal points in the north of the country, namely in the provinces of Nampula and Cabo Delgado, with construction yards having been installed in the cities of Nacala and Pemba, in the expectation of increased turnover in the Buildings area.
During 2013, the following contract works were completed:
Matola Grindrod Coal Terminal Expansion of Matola Terminal Matola | Mozambique
The following works progressed:
The following contracts were started:
The area of INFRASTRUCTURES has become fundamental in the development and growth of the activity of Teixeira Duarte, with this engineering company upholding distinctive standards in different markets due to the recognition of its high technological level, which has progressed historically since its foundation.
Fundo de Fomento Pesqueiro Fisheries Museum Maputo | Mozambique
IMOINVESTE, S.A. Structure, foundations and masonry of the head office building of the Tax Authority of Mozambique Maputo | Mozambique
Having participated in the modernisation of the country since the late 1980's, the company has expanded its scope of action to different types of works, namely Roads and Motorways, Bridges and Viaducts, Dams, Railway Lines, Railway Stations and Junctions, Port Works, Environmental Construction, as well as Water and Natural Gas Infrastructures.
Over these decades, teams have been created and experience has been accumulated in these different fields of engineering, in various markets, which is currently fundamental in what is a major challenge to the Group's construction sector: the execution of large-scale contract works in markets abroad.
Precisely reflecting this point is the fact that the activity of the segment grew by close to 23% in 2013 in relation to the previous year, with the external market accounting for around 91% of the total.
Maintaining the trend that has been observed since 2011, Venezuela acquired the status of a major market in this area during 2013, since over 50% of this segment's production was carried out in this country.
In Portugal, the decline of recent years continued as expected, with production having fallen to approximately half, with this country now being the fourth market for this area of action. This confirmed the forecast recorded in the previous year's report that the activity of Infrastructures in Portugal tends to be residual.
Even so, the following works were developed:
– The general contract for the construction of the reinforcement of the power output of Salamonde Dam, in Salamonde - Vieira do Minho, for "EDP - Gestão da Produção de Energia, S.A.". This work, executed by "Construsalamonde, ACE", in which TD-EC and its participated company EPOS, S.A. hold 92.5%, is of high technical complexity, with its evolution having been compatible with the defined objectives, and complied with all the contractually relevant deadlines, for the demanding customer EDP. Everything indicates that the good levels of production and
EDP, S.A. Reinforcement of the power output of Salamonde Dam Vieira do Minho | Portugal
SOMINCOR, S.A. Cerro da Mina Reservoir, Neves Corvo Beja | Portugal
invoicing will be maintained in 2014 and up to the completion of the works, in line with the objectives that were defined and agreed with EDP and that the technical and commercial relations with this customer and partner will be consolidated.
– Contract for the construction of Cerro da Mina reservoir, in Neves Corvo, for "SOMINCOR - Sociedade Mineira de Neves Corvo, S.A.". This is a contract with high standards of performance in terms of the safety, quality, environment and risk management systems, which includes various accessory works, and should be concluded in mid-2014.
In the Angolan market, the infrastructures segment is upheld as a priority area for the diversification and consolidation of the turnover of Teixeira Duarte's Construction sector, where the technical and commercial activity underway and new works indicate an outlook of good growth levels in this important market.
In 2013, the production levels remained similar to those recorded in 2012, with:
Reference should also be made, due to its relevance and size, of the award to a consortium including TD-EC of the contract "Studies,
INEA Rehabilitation of Avenida Hoji Ya Henda Luanda | Angola
ANESRIF Modernisation of the Thenia/Tizi-Ouzou railway line and its electrifi cation up to Oued Aissi Algeria
Implementation Project and Construction of the System IV Water Treatment Station - (BITA) - Lots B1 and B7", for "EPAL - E.P.". This contract should start in 2014.
In Algeria, the activity of the Infrastructures sector has shown strong growth in relation to the previous year.
The main works in progress were:
These contracts have entered into a stage of full development, which should be maintained until their forecast completion dates in 2016, after various delays greatly linked to the need for better definition of the works, the expropriation proceedings and the adjustment of the implementation projects to local conditions.
The Algiers Metro work - where Teixeira Duarte is part of the consortium called GMAC - has required the use of specific solutions of major technical complexity, essentially due to its location close to the city bay, the archeological remains detected in the zones affected by the works and surroundings, where constructions of the Byzantine period have been found, and also due to the fact that it is being executed under ancient buildings, classified by UNESCO as world heritage.
Note should also be made of the recent award, by the customer, of yet another tunnel section, of an extension of 136 metres, due to the work developed up to date and the confidence entrusted in the enterprise group, which has enabled continuing the general contract work at the same time as the archaeological works underway.
At Thenia/Tizi-Ouzu, where Teixeira Duarte operates through the "TEHOZEN" consortium, the recognition of the quality of the executed work, compliance with deadlines and the technical and implementation capacity that has been demonstrated has enabled strengthening, in a sustained manner, the holding in this major contract, with many and demanding areas of action. In 2013, two of the four viaducts included in the contract were completed and work was started at five of the seven stations and halts, although various impediments persist related to expropriations and the affected services which prevent the completion of the works at one of these viaducts and the launch of two of the stations. However, it is expected that the engineering structural works will be fully completed in 2014 and that the stations might be finalised in the first semester of 2015.
Start-up, in early 2014, of the contract "Réalisation des Instalations et Équipements d'Exploitation de l'Autoroute Est-Ouest - Lot Ouest", by the enterprise group led by TD-EC, for "Algérienne de Gestion des Autoroutes (AGA)", awarded at the end of 2012, with an execution period of two years, enabling an outlook of strong growth in this market which is tending to be positioned as the second most important in the sector.
Also in 2013, another enterprise group, again led by TD-EC, was awarded the contract "Réalisation et Exploitation de la Station d'Épuration de la nouvelle ville Ali Mendjeli (Constantine)", for the "Ministère des Ressources en Eau - Office National de l'Assainissement - ONA", with an execution period of 44 months (20 for construction and 24 for operation) as a result of the good work accomplished in a previous contract for the same customer and the excellent relations maintained between the parties, forecasting good prospects also in this market niche.
In Brazil, the action of this area of infrastructures has been accomplished by the participated company "EMPA, S.A.", with a moderate recovery in this area of activity having occurred during the period under review.
Over the year, projects were developed in road construction and rehabilitation and in the construction of port infrastructures in the states of Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo.
In 2013, the following works were completed:
In addition to the contracts referred to above and completed during the year, continuity was given to the "ON SHORE 3" port infrastructure work, included in the Project of Implantation of the Super-Port of Açu, located at Campos dos Goitacazes, in the state of Rio de Janeiro, for the "Anglo American Group".
The following works were started in 2013, all for "DER/MG - Departamento de Estradas de Rodagem do Estado de Minas Gerais":
The following contracts were also started during this year:
For 2014, it is expected that there will be strong growth in this market of activity in the area de infrastructures, in view of the consolidation of
LMG-680 Highway Paracatu - Brasilândia de Minas | Brazil
ANE Repair of Chicumbane Bridge Province of Gaza | Mozambique
the Group's presence in the market of public road works and the growing penetration in the private market, which is considered a promoter of major undertakings and investments in infrastructures which the country requires for its economic development.
The activity in Mozambique in this area has been residual. Notwithstanding this, during 2013:
At the same time, the commercial activity has been strengthened which has developed with various proposals having been submitted, both for public tenders and private customers.
In Venezuela, the area of infrastructures developed important engineering projects during the year under review, of which we highlight the following:
The "Procura y Construcción del Muelle Oeste en la Ampliación y Modernización del Puerto de La Guaira" work, in the state of Vargas, for "Bolivariana de Puertos, S.A." (Bolipuertos).
This is a large-scale project which will enable progress and development in Venezuela, with forecast completion at the end of the third quarter of 2014.
The Teixeira Duarte Group conducted the execution of this "key in hand" project in a notable manner, which, covering technological transfer and constituting an innovative business model in the port area, has been carried out with high know-how and strict compliance with the targets established by the customer.
Bolipuertos Expansion and Modernisation of the Port of La Guaira Vargas | Venezuela
Ministry of Popular Power for Land Transport Baralt Tunnel - Extension of Avenida Boyacá Caracas | Venezuela
Another enterprise of major impact underway in this country is the Baralt Tunnel work, "Prolongación de la Avenida Boyacá (cota mil) hasta el distribuidor Macayapa y Viaducto Tacagua", for the "Ministério del Poder Popular para el Transporte Terrestre", which Teixeira Duarte implements through the "Boyacá - La Guaira Consortium", in which it holds a stake of 57.2%.
Particular note should be made of the considerable progress in the entry and exit boring works at Baralt and Macayapa, which enabled the start-up of the four excavation fronts of the two galleries of the tunnel.
In the Macayapa junction component, the containment works at Vale Macayapa were continued and the plumbing works at Vale Tacagua were started. Simultaneously, at the Tacagua viaduct, the foundations of the pillars and the construction of the metal structure of the deck were started.
In the telecommunications sector, work progressed for "Compañia Nacional de Teléfonos de Venezuela" (CANTV), in particular those relative to the Intelligent Building - OPSUT-COR Telecommunications Centre, in Valle de la Pascua and the entire Complex of the 213 nodes and optical fibre network distributed throughout various states of Venezuela, with forecast completion during 2014.
During 2013, the following contracts were completed:
Concerning new projects, the year in course was marked by the approval of the Venezuelan Government for the construction of the "Nueva Autopista Alterna Caracas-La Guaira" work, to be implemented under the "Supplementary Agreement to the Framework Agreement for Cooperation between the Republic of Venezuela and the Portuguese Republic, on matters of economic and energy cooperation". In order to
CANTV OPSUT-COR Telecommunications Centre Valle de la Pascua | Venezuela
Telecom Venezuela Canaima Computer Factory (Magalhães) Caracas | Venezuela
formalise this approval, a Memorandum of Understanding was signed on 18 June with the "Ministério del Poder Popular para el Transporte Terrestre" and "Ministério del Poder Popular de Economia, Finanzas y Banca Pública".
The main objective of this public works project, with an estimated price of USD 4,787 million, is to reinforce and modernise the connecting highways between Caracas and La Guaira (capital of the state of Vargas and city with the principal international airport of Venezuela and one of the main sea ports of the country). A contract of enormous technical complexity, which will involve the construction of over 9 km of doublegallery tunnels and over 7 km of viaducts in a period of 54 months.
The good commercial relations between Portugal and Venezuela, expressed in the existing Agreement and consolidated over recent years through the cooperation in political and economic matters, as well as the great political interest shown by the Venezuelan government in continuing to invest in the modernisation of the country's infrastructures, has enabled, combined with the quality work carried out by Teixeira Duarte in this country for over 30 years, the growth of commercial opportunities which has been embodied in the signing of contracts of major technical and economic significance.
After the end of the year under review, in January 2014, under the IX Joint Follow-up Commission between Portugal and Venezuela, three new memorandums of understanding were signed for projects in the maritime area: "Terminal de Graneles Sólidos del Puerto de Maracaibo", in the state of Zúlia, "Terminal de Graneles Sólidos del Puerto de Puerto Cabello", state of Carabobo and "Proyecto de Expansión de la Planta Física de DIANCA". This project will enable the expansion and modernisation of the principal shipyard of Venezuela. This Commission also consolidated the "Nova Autoestrada Alterna Caracas - La Guaira" project, which is currently at a final stage of the contracting process.
The projects underway and those at a final contracting stage, with memorandums of understanding already signed with the Venezuelan government, enables envisaging the next few years with great optimism and responsibility.
MECHANICAL ENGINEERING constitutes a speciality within the construction sector with high specialisation in metallic construction and proven relevant implementation capacity, which has developed its activity with an important participation in works of Construction and Rehabilitation of Metallic and Mixed Steel-Concrete Bridges, Design and Construction of Hydromechanical Equipment for Dams, and Metallic Structures in general. At the same time, it has maintained important activity in the maintenance and repair of construction and mining equipment.
With a long tradition of innovation, combined with specific know-how, the Mechanical Engineering team has continuously developed procedures and implemented highly complex activities, in particular in the construction of large-scale structures.
In 2013, the Mechanical Engineering Operating Centre developed intense activity in its collaboration with the other Operating Centres of the Company, as well as various works for External Customers.
During the period under analysis, the Mechanical Engineering Operating Centre recorded significant growth of activity in relation to that of the previous year, having even reached a new peak.
In Portugal, we highlight the construction and assembly of the hydromechanical equipment and electric installations of the contract for the Supplementary Flood Spillway of the Reinforcement of the Power Output of Salamonde Dam, for "EDP - Gestão de Produção de Energia S.A.", in particular two segment flood gates of 6.5m x 13.7m and two coffer dams of 6.5m and 12.9m. These are the largest flood gates and coffer dams that have ever been built by the Mechanical Engineering Operating Centre.
Albeit with less expressive values, other repair and maintenance works continue for "EDP - Gestão de Produção de Energia S.A.".
The area of equipment repair and maintenance has continued to involve the usual collaboration with the Central Department of Equipment and other Group companies. Here, special note should be made of the increased collaboration with "EPOS, S.A." in the maintenance of mining equipment, at Neves Corvo, where the Group has a technical assistance contract with "SOMINCOR -Sociedade Mineira de Neves Corvo S.A.".
In Angola, the execution of the metallic structures continued for contracts undertaken by other Teixeira Duarte Operating Centres, namely for the Combined Cycle Plant at Luanda Refinery, for the expansion of the MAXI supermarket network and for works of the automotive branch company "TDA, Lda.", in these two last cases for entities of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
It is also important to refer to the fact that the workshop facilities of the Mechanical Engineering Operating Centre at the Teixeira Duarte Operating Centre, in Viana, were concluded during 2013. This is a production unit duly equipped for the manufacture of metallic structures, including a paint stripping and painting cabin.
In Algeria, the manufacture of the metallic bridges for the "Thenia/Tizi-Ouzou Line" was continued for "ASNERIF - Agence Nationale d´Études et Suivi de la Realization des Investissements Ferroviaires" continued. This project involved the assembly of the metallic structure of the PK29 viaduct, with a total length of 670 m and the assembly of the structure of the PK 36 viaduct was also started: a large-scale structure, with four spans of 128 m each, covering a total length of 512 m, which implied an assembly procedure of considerable technical complexity and also involved large-scale auxiliary structures. The works are taking place as planned, with the high satisfaction of the customer.
In Brazil, start-up of the assembly of the bridge over River Corrente, for "VALE, S.A.", along the Vitória - Minas Railway, in Governador Valadares, in the state of Espírito Santo. This work is part of a three bridge contract awarded to the Brazilian company of the Teixeira Duarte Group "EMPA, S.A.", as a result of the trust gained during the previous implementation of the Santa Joana Bridge work, in Colatina, executed with an innovative process which was a great success and very well received by the customer.
In Mozambique, the Mechanical Engineering team continues attentive to the development of bridge rehabilitation and construction projects.
EDP, S.A. Reinforcement of the Power Output of Salamonde Dam Vieira do Minho | Portugal
VALE, S.A. Bridge over the River Corrente Espírito Santo | Brazil
The manufacture of metallic structures to be installed at the Port of La Guaira has been started at the Teixeira Duarte Operating Centre specifically for Teixeira Duarte Group contracts in Venezuela.
For UNDERGROUND WORKS, apart from TD-EC, the Group is also supported by "EPOS - Empresa Portuguesa de Obras Subterrâneas, S.A." (EPOS, S.A.), a company established in the early 1980's and which, in addition to its recognised experience, has the most advanced technology and equipment for the execution of this type of work, as well as operation in the mining area.
In 2013, turnover reached the total value of 77,107 thousand euros, a value slightly higher than that recorded in the previous year, achieving a new peak figure in its history.
The industrial activity developed in Portugal accounted for over 70% of total sales, with the rest having been obtained in the Spanish, Venezuelan and Algerian markets.
In Portugal, the production of this participated company was distributed between works conducted for various mining entities and civil engineering works, especially in the hydroelectric sector.
The following works in this country are particularly noteworthy:
– At Neves Corvo Mine, the continuation of the contracts concluded with "SOMINCOR - Sociedade Mineira de Neves Corvo, S.A." aimed at the development and rehabilitation of mining infrastructure, with 7.9 km of tunnels and galleries having been excavated and 42 thousand m³ of shotcrete and 156 thousand nailings applied. At the same time, the contract for the dismantlement and transport of ore continued, whose total production exceeded one million tons;

EDP, S.A. Reinforcement of the power output of Salamonde Dam Vieira do Minho | Portugal
In Algeria, "EPOS" maintained its provision of technical assistance to TD-EC, under the "Groupement Metro d' Alger Centre", continuing the underground excavation works developed by this enterprise group in the construction contract for the Place Emir Abderkader/Place des Martyrs section of the metropolitan railway of the Algerian capital.
In Spain, the activity focused on the mining sector, through two contracts aimed at the rehabilitation of infrastructures and construction of two geotechnical galleries of a total length of 900 metres, carried out at Aguablanca Mine, owned by "Rio Narcea Recursos, S.A.".
In Venezuela, the construction work of Baralt Tunnel continued, which involves a complex and extensive road section leaving Caracas in direction of the airport, in which "EPOS, S.A." intervenes as subcontractor of the "Boyacá - La Guaira Consortium", for the tunnel component.

In 2013, the access work and preparation of the entry and exit boring of the tunnels progressed, and their excavation was started.
In RAILWAY WORKS, "SOMAFEL - Engenharia e Obras Ferroviárias, S.A." (SOMAFEL, S.A.) is a company of the Teixeira Duarte Group (60% stake), particularly qualified for railway infrastructure construction and conservation, including electrification (catenary work).
The Group has progressively consolidated its operational action, which is currently concentrated in Portugal, Algeria, Morocco, Brazil, France and Mozambique, and has started a process to optimise its action in these different countries.
In organisational terms, we highlight the appointment of a Director-General and the transfer of all the administrative services, procurement, legal, IT and human resources to the shared services of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
In Portugal, the industrial activity of "SOMAFEL, S.A." is mostly related to railway infrastructure maintenance works, in particular the provision of multi-annual service (5 years), for "Rede Ferroviária Nacional - REFER, EPE", which consists of the "Track Maintenance and Catenary Work of Lot 5", involving the entire Central Zone of the national railway network (Northern Line between Entroncamento and Pampilhosa, Beira Baixa Line, Beira Alta Line, Eastern Line and Western Line).
In 2013, "SOMAFEL, S.A." achieved a turnover above that of the preceding year.
Reference is also made to the completion of the following contracts:
– "Execution of the Railway Infrastructure Maintenance Works, in the establishment under the management of CP - Central and Northern Zone", for "CP - Comboios de Portugal, EPE";
REFER, EPE Maintenance of the Beira Alta Line Nelas | Portugal
REFER, EPE Maintenance of the Beira Alta Line Nelas | Portugal
In view of the prospect of the launch of new railroad tenders during the year in course, a higher volume of work is expected in terms of study proposals, which will certainly only be embodied in activity in 2015, hence it is foreseen that in 2014 the turnover will be similar to that achieved in the year under review.
In Algeria, the works progressed concerning the contract "Modernisation of the Thenia/Tizi-Ouzou Line and electrification up to Oued Aissi", covering a total length of 75 Km, for "ANESRIF - Agence Nationale d´Études et Suivi de la Realization des Investissements Ferroviaires".
In this context, in 2013 "SOMAFEL, S.A." recorded a turnover rather below that of the preceding year.
Commercial activity increased considerably in relation to 2012, due to the knowledge of the market and the supplementary synergies with TD-EC in the study of important railway proposals.
Hence, the GMAC enterprise group (Groupement Metro d'Alger Centre / Andrade Gutierrez - Teixeira Duarte - Gesi TP - Zagope) awarded the Road Assembly and 3rd Rail Works of the contract "Extension A - La Place Emir Abdelkader et la Place des Martyrs - Metro d'Alger", which will begin in 2014.
In view of the order book carried forward from 2013 and the proposals under negotiation advanced with various customers, the outlook for 2014 is of a significant increase in the volume of work in this country.
In Brazil, "SOMAFEL, S.A." operates through its participated company, "SOMAFEL - Obras Ferroviárias e Marítimas Lda.", which started its productive activity in 2013.
Two contracts were completed during 2013 for "SUPERVIA - Concessionária de Transporte Ferroviário", in the city of Rio de Janeiro, namely:
Two new contracts were also started, which will be developed during 2014, namely:
During 2013 and in view of various requests in new studies, the commercial sector was strengthened in order to enable meeting the requirements of various customers and ensuring their follow-up.
Therefore and due to the number of proposals currently under study and negotiation, the outlook for 2014 is of a considerable increase in the volume of work in Brazil.
In France, the activity of "SOMAFEL, S.A." has been characterised by the implementation of catenary work for the company "TSO Catenaire".
In this context, the following was carried out during 2013:
In view of the various requests in new works, an increase of the volume of work is expected for 2014.
In Morocco, the activity developed during 2013 was limited to the follow-up of the market at a commercial level, with the preparation of proposals for tender for railroad renovation and catenary works. This activity gave rise to the award, by "ONCF-Office National des Chemins de Fer", of the contract for "Railroad Studies and Works, Civil Construction and Catenary Work, at the Terminal Facilities of Kenitra - High Speed Link between Tangier and Kenitra", whose works began during 2014.
Therefore, a considerable increase of turnover is expected for 2014.
In Mozambique, productive activity began in the last quarter, with the start-up of the work of the contract for the provision of services for heavy mechanical impact on the track, for a similar company, under the execution of the Infra and Superstructure Rehabilitation Works of Section 7 - Part 2" of the Nacala Corridor Railway - Mozambique.
In view of the commercial action and studies developed, it is expected that negotiations will be completed during 2014 concerning important maintenance contracts for various railway lines of the country, hence the outlook is of increased turnover.
As noted above and in view of the current order book and proposals under negotiation in various markets, in particular in Brazil, Algeria and Mozambique, significant growth of activity and income of "SOMAFEL, S.A." is expected in 2014.
In MARITIME WORKS, the Teixeira Duarte Group operates through the company "OFM - Obras Públicas, Ferroviárias e Marítimas, S.A." (OFM, S.A.), of which 60% is indirectly held. OFM, S.A. is distinguished as an entity specialising in maritime and fluvial works, operating in port infrastructure works (commercial, fishing and nautical recreation ports), in the construction and rehabilitation of coastal protection (jetties, breakwater piers and related defence works), dredging operations and other works associated to the sea and rivers.
The Group has progressively consolidated its operational action, which is currently concentrated in Portugal, Venezuela, Algeria, Cape Verde, Brazil and Mozambique, and has started a process to optimise its action in these different countries.
In organisational terms, we highlight the appointment of a Director-General and the transfer of all the administrative services, procurement, legal, IT and human resources to the shared services of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
In Portugal, due to the crisis and consequent reduction of public and private investment, "OFM, S.A." recorded a heavy decline of operating income of close to one third.
During the year under review, the following contracts were completed:
In addition to the completion of the contracts referred to above, new works were started, namely:
In view of the prospect of the launch, during the year in course, of various tenders in this area, a higher volume of work is expected in terms of studies and submission of proposals, even if this is not embodied in execution during 2014, hence it is still foreseen that there will be a strong reduction of turnover in 2014.
In Algeria, the activity developed in 2013 was limited to market follow-up at a commercial level, with the preparation and submission of proposals for various tenders, with a view to the achievement of new work, as well as the undertaking of administrative and financial tasks for the closure of various enterprise groups.
Considering the positioning of various proposals that have been submitted, it is expected that some of these contracts will be awarded during the year in course, with the consequent recovery of turnover in this market.
In Brazil, the activity developed during 2013 was characterised by a large amount of effort and contacts with potential customers, in particular private concessionaires of port areas, as well as the development and deepening of synergies with the Brazilian company of the Teixeira Duarte Group, "EMPA, S.A.", through the joint study of a number of projects and submission of various proposals, which has enabled greater exposure of the Group's services and skills in the Brazilian market.
During the year under review, the "CR Almeida Group / EMPA, S.A" consortium awarded "OFM, S.A." the Works of Dredging and Reshaping the Slope of the South Pier at "Jurong Aracruz Shipyard", in the state of Espírito Santo.
Considering the contracts that have been awarded and the proposals under negotiation advanced with various customers, the outlook for 2014 is of a significant increase in the volume of work.
APDL, S.A. Dock 2 North Port of Leixões | Portugal
Ministry of Infrastructures, Transport and Telecommunications North-eastern Zone of Greater Porto São Vicente | Cape Verde
In Cape Verde, the work for the Expansion of the Landfill and Construction of a New Road in the North-East of Porto Grande, São Vicente, has continued for the Ministry of Infrastructures, Transport and Telecommunications, where this contract is developed under a consortium.
During 2013, "OFM, S.A." achieved a turnover slightly above that of the preceding year.
For 2014, apart from the completion of the contract underway, no new work is foreseen, especially in view of the depletion of all the funds provided under the Portuguese Cooperation in the area of port infrastructures, which will imply a significant reduction of turnover in this market.
In Mozambique, the work in consortium with Teixeira Duarte has been finalised, concerning the contract for the "Rehabilitation of the Coastal Protection of the City of Beira - Phase 1", for Beira City Hall. Work has started on the "Rehabilitation of Pavement Slabs at Quay 14 of the Port of Maputo", for "DP World Maputo", which should extend during 2014.
For 2014, and considering the various proposals submitted and under negotiation, it is expected that some of these contracts will be awarded with the inherent increased turnover.
In Venezuela, "OFM,S.A." completed its second year of activity, having continued the work under the contract "Ampliación y Modernización del Puerto de La Guaira, Sector Oeste", which is forecast to be completed during the year in course.
For 2014, the start-up of various studies of maritime works together with Teixeira Duarte is foreseen, although this should only materialise in the start-up of works and turnover at the end of the year, or even in early 2015, hence it is expected that during this year in course there will still be a considerable reduction in turnover.
Expansion and Modernisation of the Port of La Guaira Vargas | Venezuela
EDP, S.A. | Slipform shuttering for the standpipe Salamonde Dam Vieira do Minho | Portugal
The SHUTTERING AND PRESTRESSING OPERATING CENTRE is the Operating Centre with experience and technology in the areas of shuttering and falseworks.
Constituting an instrument of fundamental importance for the success of large-scale reinforced concrete and prestressed works, it is also entrusted with promoting the study and development of modern construction processes in order to offer the most advanced technologies on the market.
In Portugal, the activity focused on slipform shuttering work, the coating of the Pipeline Section and Pit Buses, in the contract for the reinforcement of the Power Output of Salamonde Dam - Salamonde II.
In Angola, the works at the National Assembly in Luanda were completed and the prefabricated beams were executed for the quay expansion of the "Marine Operations Support Dock", in Soyo.
In Algeria, the platforms supporting the assembly of the metallic arches of the viaduct were implanted for the railway works at Thenia/Tizi-Ouzou, for "ANESRIF - Agence Nationale d´Études et Suivi de la Realization des Investissements Ferroviaires".
This year the Shuttering and Prestressing Operation Centre started its activity in Brazil, having operated in three different states, in the following works:
In Mozambique, the construction of two buildings, in Maputo, for "Banco de Moçambique" continued, and the structure of the new building for the Tax Authority of Mozambique, also in Maputo, was executed.

Central Department of Equipment Teixeira Duarte Operating Centre Montijo | Portugal
The CENTRAL EQUIPMENT DEPARTMENT carries out the management and maintenance of the Group's equipment, continuing to provide an important supporting service for production activity. This Department is based at the "Teixeira Duarte Operating Centre" in Montijo.
In 2013, the procedures for equipment management and maintenance were standardised in the different markets, assuring the continuous improvement of the management process in the SAP platform. An important training programme for technical staff and machine drivers has been started in partnership with various equipment manufacturers.
In Portugal, due to the slowdown of activity, the occupancy rate of the general equipment and infrastructures continued low, at around 30%. The investment in equipment stood at approximately 0.3 million euros, essentially for the Geotechnics and Rehabilitation area.
In Angola, for General and Infrastructure equipment, the occupancy rate was 48% and, for Geotechnics and Rehabilitation equipment it was 30%. The investment was 7.3 million euros, allocated to General, Infrastructure, Geotechnics and Rehabilitation equipment.
On this issue, it is important to highlight the new equipment yard in Angola named the "Teixeira Duarte Operating Centre", in Viana. This is a modern facility which follows the organisational model already applied in Portugal, which enables the teams of the different production areas to show better and more efficient performance.
In Algeria, the occupancy rate of General and Infrastructure equipment was 30% and, for Geotechnics and Rehabilitation equipment it was 39%. The investment reached 3.4 million euros, essentially for the Geotechnics and Rehabilitation area.
In Brazil, the occupancy rate of General and Infrastructure equipment was 34%, and for Geotechnics and Rehabilitation equipment it was 35%. Investment stood at 24 million euros, of which 2.9 million euros was in General equipment, 8.4 million euros in Infrastructure equipment and 12.7 million euros in Geotechnics and Rehabilitation equipment.
In Mozambique, the occupancy rate of General and Infrastructure equipment was 49% and, for Geotechnics and Rehabilitation equipment it was 30%. The investment of 1.6 million euros was almost entirely in General equipment.
In Venezuela, the occupancy rate of General and Infrastructure equipment was 79%, with Geotechnics and Rehabilitation equipment having reached the same value. The investment was 4.6 million euros, allocated to General, Infrastructure, Geotechnics and Rehabilitation equipment.
The MATERIALS LABORATORY has been accredited since 1996 and installed at the "Teixeira Duarte Operational Centre", in Montijo since 2011. This unit was one of the first laboratories of a construction company to receive accreditation in the area of concrete and aggregates in Portugal, with a vast portfolio of equipment, which enable the conduct of over eighty different trials, and is also equipped to support the works of the Group's companies in the areas of concrete design and application, quality control, budgeting and inspection of concrete structures, both in Portugal and Abroad.
In Portugal, support was continued to the tests in the Work of the Reinforcement of the Power Output of Salamonde Dam and the documental management based on electronic format was carried out using the Corporate Portal. In the area of Research, Development and Innovation, the work of Pre-dosed Grout for Prestressing Brick Walls was completed.
Particular note should be made of the achievement, in July 2013 of the Accreditation of the "Salamonde II Temporary Laboratory" by the Portuguese Accreditation Institute (IPAC), for test of "Determination of resistance to compression, pursuant to standard NP EN 12390-3:2011". This Accreditation is the result of the joint effort made by the Materials Laboratory of TD-EC and "CONSTRUSALAMONDE, ACE".
In Angola, the Integrated Management of the laboratories began under the technical responsibility of the Materials Laboratory in Lisbon, followed by documental standardisation and verification of the development of the management system pursuant to the reference documents NP EN ISO/IEC 17025 and the Guide OGC001.
Local support was also given to the "MOSD - Marine Operations Support Dock" work in the city of Soyo, for the study and follow-up of the concrete manufacture and assessment of the concrete production plants in Soyo.
In Mozambique, particular note should be made of the strengthening of skills in soil and concrete testing, and the support given to the teams and Infrastructure Operating Centre.
The Integrated Management of the laboratories also began in this country under the technical responsibility of the Materials Laboratory in Lisbon, followed by documental standardisation and verification of the development of the management system pursuant to the reference documents NP EN ISO/IEC 17025 and the Guide OGC001.
The Teixeira Duarte Group began its operations in this area in 1984, in Macau, through a holding in CPM - Companhia de Parques de Macau, S.A. which it still owns and to which it has added, others in Portugal, Angola, Brazil, Spain and Mozambique.
Currently, the Group's companies focus on business areas of different nature, in particular the management and technical maintenance of facilities and enterprises, the environment and transport.
In this sector, Teixeira Duarte also holds several non-controlling interests in other companies whose management is not conducted by the Group's structures and which, in almost all cases, are not included in its consolidation perimeter. Various notes are also presented at the end of this chapter on the most important ones.
74,216
In non-consolidated terms and in order to provide an overall view of the total activity during 2013, we disclose that the Group's operating income in the Concessions and Services sector reached the total value of EUR 103,488 thousand, 56.7% of which referred to the activity developed abroad, and where these figures reflect an overall decrease of 14.4% in relation to 2012.
The Teixeira Duarte Group operates in the MANAGEMENT AND TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE OF FACILITIES AND ENTERPRISES in the following areas: Facilities Management, Maintenance, Analysis and Diagnosis, Management of Places and Construction Sites, and Energy Solutions.
Teixeira Duarte began its action in Portugal in 2000 through the company incorporated by it for the effect (and 100% controlled by it from the very beginning), called "TDGI - Tecnologia de Gestão de Imóveis, S.A." (TDGI). Its internationalisation, started in 2006, has been undertaken not by this Portuguese company, but rather and since 2011, by the consolidation of the TDGI trade name, with the objective of creating a strong insignia with solid values and recognised by the market and customers, regardless of where it might operate, with its scope of action currently covering five countries.
In Portugal, in spite of the recessive economic scenario, the year of 2013 followed the trend of 2012 and ended up by being frankly positive, with TDGI's turnover having increased.
The area of Facilities Management, which continues to be the core business of TDGI, also recorded higher activity during 2013, essentially as a result of three factors which proved to be of extreme importance: in the first place, the maintenance of most of the existing contracts; in the second place, the increased coverage of the contracts with some of these customers, which demonstrates the relations of confidence between TDGI and its customers; and, last but not least, the signing of new contracts, which reflects the commercial work of attention to the market.
In this area, particular note should be made of the Head Office Building of Unilever-Jerónimo Martins in Lisbon, where TDGI is responsible not only for the maintenance and management of facilities and equipment, but also for all the supporting services such as surveillance, cleaning and mail management.
With the same concept as the preceding case, note should also be made of the contract with "Johnson & Johnson", for its head office building in Queluz, the new increased number of "DECATHLON" shops, and the reinforcement of the provision of services in the Autonomous Region of Madeira, namely through contracts with the Airports of Madeira and Porto Santo, with the Regional Archive of Madeira and Santana Home.
Particular note should be made of the area of Energy Solutions and Analysis and Diagnosis, which continued during 2013 to be TDGI's focus as a factor of differentiation and introduction of value added for its customers. The investment in new technologies and new equipment and solutions continued, enabling the appropriate response to current requirements, as well as the focus on a team with specialised technical staff, armed with the most recent technologies used in Building Maintenance.
Concerning this issue, note should also be made of the Energy Certification, under the Intensive Energy Consumption Management System (SGCIE) of the factory plant of "SOPLASTE - Moura, Moutinho e Morais, S.A.", in Valongo.
With regard to Energy Solutions, 2013 was also a fairly important year, where we highlight the award of the energy audit of various "Millennium BCP" buildings in TagusPark. This study, which will be developed over a period of two years, is simultaneously aimed at identifying and characterising the consumption of various buildings and their systems and equipment, as well as defining measures to promote energy efficiency and the consequent reduction of consumption.
The year of 2013 was also frankly positive in the sector of Studies of Places and Construction Sites, with this activity area having increased its income, especially related to the remodelling of the entire interior of the Nestlé Building, in the municipality of Oeiras.
In Angola, the growing confidence entrusted by customers in the work developed has enabled the consolidation of notable growth during 2013, where we highlight:
TDGI in Angola is based in Luanda, with delegations in Soyo, Sumbe, Huambo and Lubango and, since 2013, also in Cabinda and Benguela.
In Brazil, 2013 was a year of growth for the TDGI brand. Indeed, after having dedicated its effort in 2012 to operations and commercial development, during 2013, TDGI strongly boosted the development of its activity in this market with the inherent growth of its structure.
By the end of this first year of production, TDGI Brazil already had a management team of six engineers, four employees supporting production and technical teams for the field, with seventy workers and six vehicles.

In the customer portfolio, we highlight the multinationals "Price, WaterHouse & Cooper" and "Decathlon", as well as the Brazilian reference company in the area of insurance "Porto Seguro" and the "Itambé Group", a Brazilian leading company in consulting and real estate management.
The confidence entrusted by these and other important customers implied that the activity started in the city of São Paulo extended to various other states, and inclusively, to offices having been opened in Rio de Janeiro and Santa Catarina.
In this context, it is expected that in 2014, TDGI will double its turnover in Brazil.
In Spain, after a very difficult year of 2012, TDGI shifted its focus of action away from the public sector and towards the private sector, thus having strongly increased the company's activity, especially due to the higher volume of work for the customers "PFIZER" and "CBRE".
In Mozambique, TDGI is currently a recognised and respect brand due to the work is has progressively carried out in the area of building management, particularly in the capital Maputo.
As a result of the stronger growth of economic activity and development of the principal urban areas which are close to the natural gas and coal carrier beds (Pemba and Tete), the necessary logistics and industrial infrastructures are being created for the distribution and processing of these natural resources (Nacala and Beira), with TDGI reinforcing its teams in these provinces, where there are still great needs in terms of management of buildings and technical infrastructure.
The various contracts include, in particular:
Porto Seguro Building São Paulo | Brazil
Xiluva Condominium Maputo | Mozambique
– The management and maintenance contract for the facilities of "Hotel Park Inn" in Tete, owned by one of the largest hotel groups of the world, the "Carlson Group".
Following its internationalisation strategy, in 2013, TDGI started prospecting for business opportunities in Belgium, having made various commercial contacts with potential customers, and prepared commercial proposals aimed at both the public and private sectors.
Operations were started in Belgium during 2013, with the replacement of a Chilled Water Production Group at the premises of the Portuguese Embassy in Brussels and the award of the optimisation of the lighting technology of a supermarket in Anderlecht.
In the area of the ENVIRONMENT, the Teixeira Duarte Group fundamentally operated through its participated companies "RECOLTE - Serviços e Meio Ambiente, S.A." (RECOLTE), "RECOLTE - Servicios y Medioambiente, S.A.U" (RECOLTE S.A.U) and "INVICTAAMBIENTE - Recolha de Resíduos e Limpeza Pública, S.A. (INVICTAAMBIENTE).
RECOLTE, with head office in Portugal, is a company 100% held by the Teixeira Duarte Group, which primarily operates in the areas of design and operation of cleaning and urban hygiene systems, in urban and industrial solid waste management systems, in the construction and maintenance of gardens and green areas, construction of equipment and plants for the treatment and management of waste, and also in the cleaning of beaches and coastal zones.
RECOLTE S.A.U. is a company incorporated under Spanish law, 100% held by RECOLTE, dedicated to the provision of various services related to the Environment, mainly in the market of waste management, street cleaning, garden maintenance, beach cleaning, and coastal rescue and relief operations.
INVICTAAMBIENTE is a specific purpose entity, 100% held by RECOLTE S.A.U., whose sole object is solid urban waste collection and urban cleaning covering a significant part of the city of Porto.
The activity in Portugal during 2013, essentially consisted of the continuation of the existing service contracts, the vast majority of which are multiannual, which confers some stability to this activity with respect to turnover. On the other hand, since most of the potential customers are public entities whose budgets are increasingly tighter, this has proved problematic in the conclusion of new contracts with sustainable operating margins.
In the area of the Construction of Environmental Systems we highlight the contract, carried out in consortium with TD-EC, of "Works of the 1st Phase of rehabilitation and upgrading of São Brás de Alportel Organic Valorisation Plant", for "ALGAR, S.A.", which essentially consisted of the execution of rehabilitation works on urban solid waste mechanical-biological treatment structures, including the upgrading of the respective electromechanical facilities and anti-seismic reinforcement of the structures.
We highlight, in the area of the Construction of Green Areas, the execution, also carried out in consortium with TD-EC, of the "Picoutos Park - Environmental and Landscape Upgrade" work for the municipality of Matosinhos, which essentially consisted of the environmental upgrade of a park for urban vegetable gardens.
Hence, in 2013, RECOLTE achieved a turnover of close to 11 million euros, a figure slightly higher than that recorded in the previous year.
Through its Branch in Portugal, RECOLTE S.A.U. continued its existing contracts with "EMAC - Empresa de Ambiente de Cascais E.M. S.A." and the municipality of Oeiras, having reached a turnover of around 2.5 million euros, in line with the value achieved in the previous year.
INVICTAAMBIENTE achieved a turnover of 3.8 million euros, lower than the figure for the previous year, as a result of the reduction of services for its only customers, the municipality of Porto.
Most of the operating income of these companies, received above all in the sphere of local government and municipal companies, were derived from the continuity of contracts for Solid Urban Waste Collection (RSU) and Street Cleaning carried out in the municipalities of Alenquer, Cascais, Lagoa (Azores), Porto, Ribeira Grande, São João da Madeira and Vila Franca do Campo.
Among the main works for the Maintenance of Gardens and Green Areas, we highlight those carried out for the municipalities of Azambuja, Benavente, Lisbon, Matosinhos, Oeiras and Vila Franca de Xira, for the parishes of Algueirão, Mem Martins and Benfica, as well as for "ANA - Aeroportos e Navegação Aérea, for "Lagoas Park S.A." and in Lagoas Park for companies of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
For 2014, in Portugal, in spite of the added difficulty arising from the significant reduction of the values placed under tender, as well as the reiterated requests from customers to reduce services and activities underway, it is estimated that operating income should be in line with that observed in 2013.
In Spain, a turnover of approximately 31 million euros was recorded, which represents notable growth in relation to the figure recorded in the previous year.
Among the various operations underway during 2013, we highlight, in the area of Solid Urban Waste Collection, Street Cleaning and Management of Ecocentres, those developed in Comunidade de Madrid (Ayuntamientos de San Lorenzo del Escorial, Griñon, Torrejón de la Calzada, Torrejón de Velasco and Villaconejos), in Comunidade de Andaluzia (Ayuntamiento de Benalmádena, Cartaya and Mairena, where these two last were started in 2013) and in Comunidade de Galiza (Mancomunidade dos Concellos do Morrazo, which includes the Ayuntamientos de Cangas, Bueu y Moaña).
In the Maintenance of Gardens and Green Areas, the main services underway were continued in Comunidade Andaluza (Ayuntamiento de Algeciras) and in Comunidade de Madrid (Ayuntamiento de Serrallinos del Valle).
ALGAR, S.A. Rehabilitation and upgrade of São Brás de Alportel Organic Valorisation Plant Faro | Portugal
Municipality of Matosinhos Picoutos Park - Environmental and Landscape Upgrade Porto | Portugal
Note should also be made of the continuity of various important contracts in the area of Maintenance and Conservation of Beaches, Pine Forests and Coastal Zones in Comunidade de Andaluzia, for the Ayuntamientos of Algeciras, Benalmádena and El Puerto de Santa Maria.
During 2013, the Environment activity in Angola focused on the area of Construction and Maintenance of Gardens and Green Areas, in particular the "Construction of the Gardens and Green Areas of the New National Assembly of Angola".
This activity area has proved promising in view of the large number of business opportunities which have emerged and is a clear area of interest for the development of the activity in this country.
Particular attention also continues to be given to possibilities of intervention in the areas of collection, treatment and management of solid urban waste, in the area of urban cleaning and in the area of the management and treatment of hazardous hospital waste, reference to which has already been made above.
Focus is maintained on diversification into other areas of the Environment sector, namely in Systems and Equipment for treatment of Hospital Waste and also, in view of some stagnation of the national market, on the ongoing search for new business opportunities in other countries where the Teixeira Duarte Group is already implanted.
Indeed, in 2013, an agreement for the exclusive representation and distribution of hospital waste treatment equipment was signed with the Italian supplier OMPeco, for Portugal, Spain, Angola, Mozambique and Cape Verde.
The objective of the partnership with this supplier is to develop and implement this environmentally innovative technology in these countries, exploring these highly technological market niches through the implementation of treatment units with provision of integrated services, supplying the customers of these countries with an overall solution for the collection, transport and treatment of Hospital Waste.

During the year under review, the commercial presence was consolidated in other Portuguese-speaking countries through the submission of proposals for various public and private tenders, in particular, on this matter, those submitted in Macau and Mozambique.
As noted above, in view of the current portfolio of multiannual contracts and proposals that are currently under study and negotiation, it is expected, albeit with some prudence, that the activity and operating income will grow during 2014.
SATU-OEIRAS - Sistema Automático de Transporte Urbano, E.M., S.A. is a municipal company in which the Group has a stake of 49%, that fully operates the Oeiras SATU Transport System, having recorded an operating income of 258 thousand euros in 2013.
"TDHOSP - Gestão de Edifício Hospitalar, S.A." is a company 100% owned by TD-EC, the object of which is the management of the New Cascais Hospital for a period of 30 years, including the design, project, construction, financing, conservation and maintenance activities.
With the completion of the construction of Cascais Hospital in February 2010, the activity of TDHOSP has concentrated, since this date, on the management and maintenance of the hospital building and on the management and operation of the Car Park.
Under the Management Contract, the activity of TDHOSP is assessed and monitored by the Contracting Public Entity regarding the parameters of Availability, Service and Satisfaction, having received, since the beginning of the operation, the classification of Very Good.
"EDUCARE - Actividades Educativas e Culturais, Lda." is a company 100% owned by the Teixeira Duarte Group, which was incorporated in 2007 specifically for the development of the "Colégio São Francisco de Assis Luanda Sul" project (CSFA Luanda Sul), with head office in Talatona, Luanda Sul, in Angola.
Adopting the Constructivist/Positivist Education Model, complying fully with the Portuguese Curriculum and intended for students from the
Infant Section up to Secondary Education, this college seeks to offer education for a demanding and culturally diverse group of citizens of a Portuguese-speaking community, always with the objective of ensuring excellence in the dissemination of the Portuguese language and culture.
During 2013, CSFA Luanda Sul continued to develop its educational activity with Pre-School, 1st, 2nd and 3rd Cycles of Elementary Education (CEB).
Between January and July, as has occurred since the start-up of the College's activity in 2007/08, Pre-School Education continued to operate in the provisional facilities dimensioned to receive children of these age groups. However, blocks 3 and 4 of the definitive building were completed in August 2013, thus enabling the long desired change of this education area to the new rooms.
We highlight the entry into operation of a further two class groups, respectively, of the 8th and 9th schooling years, which has enabled expanding the total number of students at the college.
Therefore, as at 31 December 2013, CSFA Luanda Sul reached the number of 581 students, with its annual average being 546 students, corresponding to a 23% increase in relation to 2012.
The alterations indicated above, enabling the opening of new classrooms at CSFA Luanda Sul, had the expected impact on turnover which increased by 15%.
For 2014, it expected that the line ministry (Portuguese Ministry of Education and Science) will attribute the certification of the learning and recognition of the teaching ministered for Secondary Education, and that the average number of students attending the College should reach 605.
"PAREDÃO DE MINAS Energia, S.A.", "GONGOJI Montante Energia, S.A." and "TABOQUINHA Energia, S.A.", are three Brazilian companies held by the Teixeira Duarte Group, which have continued the respective project licensing procedures for the construction of three small hydroelectric plants (PCH):
Paredão de Minas small hydroelectric plant, to be built in the municipalities of João Pinheiro and Buritizeiro, in the state of Minas Gerais, received its installation license in February 2012, and will have an installed power of 28.2 MW and assured average power of 13.3 MWh.
The consolidated basic project was prepared during 2013, after an associated campaign of exploratory drilling and rigorous topographic surveying, including the implantation area of the transmission line.
This consolidated basic project enabled a more accurate budgeting of the construction price, with a view to the evaluation of the project investment.
Gongogi small hydroelectric plant, to be built in the municipalities of Gongoji and Aurelino Leal, in the state of Baía will have an installed power of 13.5 MW and assured average power of 7.9 MWh.
The basic project of this small hydroelectric plant has already been accepted by the "National Electric Power Agency" (ANEEL), and will be approved after the issue, by the "Institute of the Environment and Water Resources" (INEMA), of the Prior License, whose Environmental Impact Study (EIA) and preparation of the Environmental Impact Report (RIMA) process was agreed under protocol in November 2011.
During 2013, this EIA-RIMA process was under a phase of evaluation and clarification, and is pending the scheduling of a date for a public hearing, which should take place soon.
It is expected that the Prior License might be issued during 2014 and that the approval of the basic project by ANEEL should take place in the following months, which will enable the issue of the Installation License by mid-2015.
Taboquinha small hydroelectric plant, to be built in the municipality of Itacaré, in the state of Baía will have a power of 26.3 MW and assured average power of 13 MWh.
The basic project was reviewed and concluded during 2013, so as to enable its forwarding to ANEEL.
In this context, the review of the EIA-RIMA) will follow the standard procedures, which enables foreseeing that the Prior License should be received in 2014, and the basic project approved by ANEEL at the end of this same year.
Should this be the case, the Installation License, to be issued by INEMA, may be granted in 2015.
The companies operating in the Concessions and Services sector where "Teixeira Duarte, S.A." merely has a non-controlling stake, that is, whose direct management is not carried out by the Teixeira Duarte Group, include the following entities, in particular:
"AEDL - Auto-Estradas do Douro Litoral, S.A.", a company in which TD-EC holds 19.67% of its share capital and which signed the Douro Litoral concession contract with the Portuguese State at the end of December 2007.
During 2013, after the completion of the construction tasks, a process was started for the divestment of this stake to investors which are more suited to this stage of operation.
"AEBT - Auto-Estradas do Baixo Tejo, S.A.", a company in which TD-EC holds 9% of its share capital and which signed the Baixo Tejo Sub-Concession Contract with "EP - Estradas de Portugal", S.A. on 24 January 2009.
This sub-concession contract will last for a period of 30 years and envisages the design, planning, construction, expansion of the number of lanes, financing, operation and conservation of the motorway sections, associated road links in the district of Setúbal, called the Baixo Tejo sub-concession, along a total of 68 Km, of which 17 Km include toll-gates and involving an estimated investment of approximately 278 million euros.
During 2013, with all the construction works completed and the entire route operational, the tasks related to the closure of the construction contract took place.
"LUSOPONTE - Concessionária para a Travessia do Tejo, S.A.", a company dedicated exclusively to the management, under a concession regime, of the two road crossings over the River Tejo, in the region of Lisbon, in which TD-EC holds 7.5% of the share capital.
2013 was yet another year of positive performance for both crossings with respect to its quality and the fluidity and safety of the traffic, providing a good service to the customer, as confirmed by the data of the customer questionnaires, whose satisfaction rating, on a scale of zero to five, reached 3.75 for Vasco da Gama Bridge.
In view of the macroeconomic context being experienced during 2013, in consolidated terms, there was an overall decrease of traffic of 2.1%, with traffic over "Ponte 25 de Abril" having fallen by 2.2% and over "Ponte Vasco da Gama" by 2.0%.
During 2013, operating income reached 67,657 thousand euros, representing a 3.61% increase relative to 2012.
This increased revenue is essentially related to the growth of toll revenue, especially in its price component, and due to the normalisation of the value of the grants of the Portuguese State, where there was no repetition of the derecognition of the account receivable of the value of 5.5 million euros, which had occurred in 2012.
Operating EBITDA reached the figure of 56,513 thousand euros (83.53%), corresponding to an increase of 1.06% relative to the value for 2012 of 53,970 thousand euros.
As an integral part of the negotiations with the Portuguese State on the Overall Agreement, the Granter paid up the two instalments relative to 2012, of the value of 7,665 thousand euros, with Lusoponte having paid the amount of 5,683 thousand euros arising from the reintroduction of toll collection in the month of August, which occurred during 2012, on "Ponte 25 de Abril".
"CPM - Companhia de Parques de Macau, S.A.", in which the Teixeira Duarte Group has a stake of 15% of the share capital since its foundation in the mid-1980's, after an international public tender, has been a pioneer and continues to be a reference company in the construction and operation of car parks and related activities, in the Special Administrative Region of Macau.
In 2013, as in previous years, it continued its successful action within the specific parameters of the market, having achieved positive earnings of 1,670 thousand euros.
The Teixeira Duarte Group has carried out the activity of real estate development for over 30 years, as a natural consequence of its intense activity in the construction sector. Throughout these decades, vast experience has been acquired in Portugal in the different market segments, which has enabled the internationalisation of this business in a sustained manner to other geographic regions such as Angola, Brazil, Spain and Mozambique, with the Group currently possessing an impressive portfolio of developments that have been completed or are underway.
During recent years, and foreseeing the scenario of crisis that the real estate market is experiencing in Portugal and Spain, the sector has focused its activity on the divestment of assets for sale and on the management of the Group's income-earning assets, concentrating its effort on the growth of operations in Brazil, Angola and Mozambique.
Apart from the promotion of real estate projects, part of the resources of this sector are currently dedicated to the management and expansion of areas allocated to other activities of the Group, in particular in the Construction, Concessions and Services, Hotel Services, Distribution, Energy and Automotive sectors.
Real Estate recorded an overall reduction of 27% compared with 2012, due to the different maturities of the investments underway.
In Portugal and in a climate of contraction of the sector, there was a decrease of 2.4% relative to 2012, with the Group having focused its activity on the disposal of various assets, primarily apartments, which generated proceeds of 18.1 million euros, which is considered to be very positive, particularly considering that this amount only came to 17.9 million euros in the previous year, of which 13 million euros referred to the sale of only one property.
EBITDA in the Real Estate sector declined by 18.4% year-onyear, even so, well above the value recorded in 2011. This is considered very positive in view of the current scenario of this sector, especially in Portugal, where the Group's strategy involved the divestment of various assets with considerable discounts.
In non-consolidated terms and in order to provide an overall view of the total activity during 2013, we disclose that the Group's operating income in the Real Estate sector reached the total value of 110,872 thousand euros, corresponding to a decrease of 19.3% relative to 2012, with the markets abroad now representing 47.9% of the activity and Portugal accounting for 52.1%.
In Portugal, factors such as the high rate of unemployment, the reduction of disposable household income and the more restricted access to funding, in particular mortgage loans, continued to exert pressure on the market and explain the adjustment of sales and rental values to this economic reality.
In spite of the difficult economic context experienced in this country, during 2013, in the real estate market and in particular in investment activities, there was stronger demand by national entities and foreign investors, who value the good opportunities presented by the Portuguese real estate market after a period of some correction of assets values.
Concerning the office segment, during 2013, the lowest level was recorded in the placement of spaces in the metropolitan area of Lisbon since there is reliable record of this indicator. This was the result of the cost-cutting policies that companies have been forced to follow in order to overcome the current economic context. This same trend was also observed in the logistics segment where few relevant transactions were recorded.
It was in this context that, at "Lagoas Park", a core real estate asset of the Group's, approximately 4,200 m² new areas were contracted and other contracts were renegotiated representing close to 11,700 m². Thus, and notwithstanding the release of various areas derived from the internal reorganisation of a few resident companies, the year of 2013 closed with an occupancy rate of 83%, similar to that recorded in 2012.
In the residential segment, one of the most penalised by the crisis in recent years, during 2013 it was possible to contract a significant volume of units, as a result of a series of promotional campaigns conducted at the main real estate developments. These campaigns highlighted the quality and construction warranty of the assets promoted by the Group, with the offer of special financing conditions having been essential to their success.
In Lisbon, at the "Campo Grande 9" enterprise, 11 of the 15 housing and trade units comprising the enterprise were contracted during 2013, leaving only 2 housing units, one shop and various separate parking places.
Regarding the "Villa Park" mixed enterprise, located in Amadora, the aforesaid promotional campaigns combined with the offer of special financing conditions, enabled the contracting of the sale of 17 housing units. Special note should also be made of the conclusion of the definitive contract for the sale of four trade units intended for the installation of a pharmacy.
At the "Santa Marinha Design District" enterprise in Vila Nova de Gaia, contracts were signed for the sale of 29 housing units and 2 trade units. In the "Tower Plaza" office building, included in this same enterprise, contracts were signed for 5 units. Also in Vila Nova de Gaia, reference should be made to the sale of the last 7 units available at the "Quinta de Cravel" enterprise.
In an extremely difficult market climate, the commercial performance achieved in these enterprises, together with the sale of other separate assets, enabled maintaining an interesting level of sales turnover in Portugal.
With regard to the "Vila Rio" enterprise, located in Póvoa de Santa Iria, which will be implanted on a plot of land of approximately 17 hectares and which has an extensive front on the River Tejo, it should be noted that in June and after the period of public discussion, Vila Franca de Xira City Hall deliberated the approval of the land parcelling operation which enables the construction of 600 housing units and 32,200 m² of areas for trade and services.
We also highlight the preparatory work conducted for the issue of the land parcelling license of the "Villa Simões" enterprise, a residential project located in Benfica, Lisbon, which foresees the construction of approximately 48,000 m² above the ground. The standard procedures were followed for the projects in portfolio, namely the "Villa Torrinha" enterprise (residences aimed at the medium-high segment) in Pedrouços, Lisbon, and the enterprise planned for Lot 5 of "Fórum Oeiras".
During 2014 , the marketing of the enterprises where the Group still has available units will continue, specifically at the "Santa Marinha Design District" in Vila Nova de Gaia and "Villa Park" in Amadora, as well as the maintenance of the good occupancy levels of the income-earning assets which the Group owns in Portugal.
In Angola, the real estate sector showed a rate of strong growth throughout 2013, driven by the sound performance of the economy. In this context, the Group's activity in this sector has been primarily dedicated to the management of the buildings it constructed, the necessary procedures for licensing of various projects in portfolio and the expansion of Construction, Concession and Services, Hotel Services, Distribution and Automotive activities.
Special reference should be made to the acquisition in the city of Luanda of two assets in the Cacuaco zone, one in the Viana zone and another in Central Luanda. In the provinces, we highlight the acquisition of an asset in Benguela and a promissory contract for the sale of a property in Lubango.
In the "Vila Sul" enterprise, located in Talatona, Luanda, which as a whole covers residential condominiums, a reference education establishment (Colégio São Francisco de Assis) and a professional development centre dedicated to the training of middle management staff of the Teixeira Duarte Group, the main road infrastructure was completed and the construction of a series of 46 villas (T2 and T3), intended for rental, was started during 2013.
In Brazil, the Teixeira Duarte Group has operated since 2006 in the residential and commercial market of São Paulo. After the reduction of the volume of transactions of new residential properties which occurred in 2012 in this city, the year of 2013 was characterised by a good commercial performance of quality products in good locations.
Of the 1,416 units launched in this market by Teixeira Duarte, 1,299 have already been sold, contracted during 2013. Of the 117 units currently available, only 3 correspond to the launch of 2011, with 114 units belonging to developments whose sales began during 2012 and 2013. This excellent commercial performance derives from the recognition attributed by the market to the quality and technical rigour of the projects promoted by the Group.
In Jundaí, the construction of the "Alta Vista Premium" enterprise continue, with a construction area of approximately 49,000 m², and the "Alta Vista Prestige" enterprise has been started, with approximately 54,000 m² of construction area.
Alta Vista enterprise São Paulo | Brazil
Quartier Vila Mascote enterprise São Paulo | Brazil
In the Eastern region, the "Verum Mooca" enterprise was started, with around 23,000 m² of construction area and in the Northern region, the "My Place Casa Verde" with around 23,000 m² of construction area. In the Southern region, the construction was also started of the "Quartier Vila Mascote" enterprise, where only one of the 210 apartments built is still available for sale.
In São Paulo, the launch of three residential enterprises is planned for 2014, which will provide 411 units, and the legal procedures will be pursued for the projects in portfolio and the management of the enterprises under construction.
In Porto de Galinhas, in the state of Pernambuco, the promotion of the "Casa do Governador" enterprise has continued. This is a large-scale and high quality project which is expected to be structural for the entire region, with the execution of various projects and procedures of the respective licenses being pursued. It is expected that during the following year the conditions will be created to start the construction of the first hotel of the enterprise, which will have 600 rooms.
In Spain, the real estate market showed timid signs of recovery at the end of the year and for the first time in the past five years. After years of severe recession, the country's economic cycle appears to be at a turning point, where this progressive improvement of the Spanish economy should favour the real estate activity.
In Madrid, the marketing continued of the "Amália" residential building, located close to Paseo de la Castellana and Plaza Castilla, with the deeds of a further two units having been signed in 2013, leaving only five for sale.
Also in Madrid and under an administrative concession contract, continuity was given to the marketing of the assignment of use of parking places for residents and the operation of parking areas for rotation, as well as the leasing of the commercial areas available at "Parking Europa", located in "Avenida da Europa", in "San Sebastian de los Reyes".
In Mozambique, the real estate market of the capital showed certain buoyancy in 2013, with various enterprises having been launched in the region of Maputo.
In August, the Group started the construction of the "Julius Nyerere 130" building, with 22 floors above ground level, which includes T1 to T4 types, two exclusive penthouses, generous social areas for exclusive use of the residents and areas dedicated to trade and offices.
During 2014, the market prospecting activity will be continued, particularly in the city of Maputo, including the marketing of certain separate assets and the management of the "Polana Shopping Centre", a prime property owned by the Group.
After a first experience in 1974 in the Algarve, the Teixeira Duarte Group resumed its activity in this sector in Sines in the 1980's, and currently operates ten hotels, four of which are located in Portugal, three in Angola and three in Mozambique, covering a total of 2,799 beds and 1,452 rooms.
Teixeira Duarte also develops business in the Fitness area, namely through four Health Clubs (in "Lagoas Park", in Torres Vedras, in Faro, and in "Villa Park" in Amadora) and various restaurants in Portugal and Angola, where the "Nilo" pastry-shops are particularly important in Angola.
The Turnover of the Hotel Services fell by 7.2% year-on-year, essentially penalised by the performance of the Group's hotels in Angola, one of which was remodelled at the end of the year.
In Portugal, the Group recorded values similar to those of 2012.
EBITDA fell by 31% to stand at 25,193 thousand euros, reflecting the poor performance of the Group's hotels in Angola.
Particular note should be made of the good performance recorded in the hotels in Mozambique.
Hotel Eva Faro | Portugal
Hotel Alvalade Luanda | Angola
In non-consolidated terms and in order to provide an overall view of the total activity during 2012, we disclose that the Group's operating income in the Hotel sector reached the total value of EUR 106,275 thousand, corresponding to an increase of 4.3% relative to 2011. In this business area, the markets abroad now represent 83.5% of the activity and Portugal accounts for 16.5%.
In Portugal, the Group's companies operating in this sector offer a total of 1,088 beds and 511 rooms, distributed over four hotels, as detailed below:
| LAGOAS PARK HOTEL | Oeiras | 182 rooms |
|---|---|---|
| SINERAMA | Sines | 105 rooms |
| HOTEL ORIENTAL | Praia da Rocha | 90 rooms |
| HOTEL EVA | Faro | 134 rooms |
Overall, the occupancy rate fell by 4% in this market, essentially due to the lower corporate market demand, simultaneously with the increase of approximately 4% in the average price, as a result of more efficient management of sales through the Internet and improved performance of the Booking Centre.
A brief reference to the fact that, during 2013, Teixeira Duarte terminated its former operation of the hotel with 140 rooms, in Albufeira, named "Stella Maris".
In the Fitness area, the average number of active members of the different units of the "CLUB L" increased by 2.5% relative to 2012. However, the adverse economic circumstances combined with the customers' loss of purchasing power led to a reduction of the value of the average monthly payment and the marketing of personal training, which implied a decline in income of 10% compared with the previous year.
In Angola, the Group's companies operating in this sector offer a total of 1,059 beds and 620 rooms, distributed over the following three hotels:
| HOTEL TRÓPICO | Luanda | 280 rooms |
|---|---|---|
| HOTEL ALVALADE | Luanda | 202 rooms |
| HOTEL BAÍA | Luanda | 138 rooms |
During 2013 the effect of the competition, through the increase and remodelling of the existing offer, influenced the management indicators recorded in two of the Group's hotels, both in terms of occupancy rates and average prices applied, leading to a reduction of income in relation to 2012 of close to 7% in HOTEL TRÓPICO and 10% in HOTEL ALVALADE.
HOTEL TRÓPICO closed for improvement works which will lead to the closure of the hotel for a period of six months. This involves a significant investment which will be reflected in the complete modernisation of the Hotel, with important alterations in terms of layout and customer service infrastructures.
On the other hand, HOTEL BAÍA consolidated its position as a reference hotel in Luanda, maintaining the excellent occupancy levels of 2012 and achieving a slightly higher average price, which was reflected in increased income by approximately 8%.
In its current activity, we highlight the strong growth of the area of events, associated to the banquet service and outside catering, which recorded an increase above 60% in relation to 2012.
Concerning other related activities, we highlight the "Nilo" pastry-shops, a reference in the Pastry and Bread-making market in Luanda, which, after the opening of yet another Nilo Pintos unit in December 2012, started a process of remodelling and modernisation of the remaining units.
We highlight the reopening of Nilo Maianga, in August 2013, which underwent a thorough intervention, as well as the modernisation works of Nilo Alvalade. The total income of this activity grew by 10%.
In Mozambique, the Group's companies operating in this sector offer a total of 652 beds and 321 rooms, distributed over three hotels, as detailed below:
| HOTEL AVENIDA | Maputo | 159 rooms |
|---|---|---|
| HOTEL TIVOLI MAPUTO | Maputo | 88 rooms |
| HOTEL TIVOLI BEIRA | Beira | 74 rooms |
The year of 2013 was characterised by a minor slowdown of the sector's activity in this market as a result of the lower number of visitors to Mozambique, as well as the increased competition and continuous renovation of local hotels positioned in the same market. Therefore, the occupancy rate and the average price declined by 2% and 3%, respectively, although careful management enabled the good operating performance.
The action of the Teixeira Duarte Group in this sector began in 1996 and is currently implemented by various international operations, acting in Portugal through "Teixeira Duarte Distribuição, S.A.", in Angola through the participated companies "CND - Companhia Nacional de Distribuição, Lda." and "DCG - Distribuição e Comércio Geral, Lda.", in South Africa through "Global Net Distributors, (PTY), Ltd." (GND) and in Brazil through "TDD Brasil, Limitada".
The reinforcement of the structure of the "Procurement Centre", pursued over the last few years, has enabled intense and systematic procurement of the best solutions in various geographic regions of the world, endowing this sector with an extensive range of quality products at very competitive prices.
At the same time, in retail operations, the search for new locations for points of sale and the general improvement of the different units where the Group operates, making the atmosphere of the shops more attractive and with more services for customers, have both continued.
Distribution grew by 20.2% relative to December 2012, in particular in the area of food trade, reflecting the investments made in the growth of the sales areas, which enabled the opening of three new outlets in the metropolitan region of Luanda, as well as the increased offer of new products and extension of shop opening hours.
The EBITDA of Distribution grew by 29% in relation to the previous year, standing at 22,045 thousand euros.
There were strong reductions of stocks in this activity sector, with consequent decline of EBITDA for this year, which even so reached values above those of 2011.
In non-consolidated terms and in order to provide an overall view of the total activity during 2013, we disclose that the Group's operating income in the Distribution sector reached the total value of 322,015 thousand euros, corresponding to growth of 11.8% relative to 2012.
In Portugal, and through the company "Teixeira Duarte - Distribuição, S.A.", the Group continued to focus on the optimisation of competence in the areas of logistics, category management and management control, and on the deepening of partnership relations in the representations of trade names.
For 2014, in Portugal, along with the consolidation of the support structures for all the Group's Distribution operations, the analysis of new opportunities of brand representation will be continued, whenever identified as able to generate value and boost synergies in current business units.
In Angola, during 2013, investment continued in the expansion of the various retail insignias operated by the Group.
In Food Trade, in the network of "Maxi" hard discount shops, reference should be made to the opening of three new medium-sized outlets, with a sales area of approximately 3,500 m², located in "Maxipark" complexes, which are characterised by offering a series of other shops which complement the product offer, at the same place.
Also in the area of Food Trade, the search was intensified for and contracting of new outlets for the network of "bompreço" proximity shops, which have a sales area of around 1,000 m², and are renowned for the quality and diversity of their offer of fresh products.
In the area of Decoration, criteria were developed so as to enable repositioning the "Casa de Coração" insignia, maintaining the offer of quality products with more competitive prices and more suited to the middle class of the population. Simultaneously with the development of the retail outlets, investment continued in the distribution network, with the doubling of the surface of the logistics centre for environment products and the reinforcement of the shop supply fleet.
A major focus of the Group during 2013, a year of full affirmation, was the "Fazenda Maxi" project, whose objective is to make the most of the potentialities of the Angolan agricultural sector and contribute to the development of national production. This project enables broadening the range of fresh products on offer, especially fruit and vegetables, with guaranteed quality and food safety.
The strong dedication of the different partners, which currently already represent over 8,000 hectares of cultivated area, combined with careful planning of production processes and the systematic technical monitoring of the teams of "Fazenda Maxi", have enables the regular supply of fresh products to all the food trade shops. It is expected that in 2014 the vast majority of products offered in the area of fruit and vegetables will have been produced on the participant farms, even considering the foreseen growth of the network.
Assuring the transport of the different products of "Fazenda Maxi", directly from the farms to the retail outlets, enables reducing the number of intermediate distributors, leading to a strong reduction of costs for some products. It should be noted that these savings were fully reflected in the prices to the final consumer, fulfilling the mission of "Maxi" to always offer the cheapest prices.
Although the available market information is still insufficient, a recent internal assessment made to 472 products in the most representative retail networks operating in Angola confirmed "Maxi" as the insignia with the most competitive prices when compared to the competition.
The "Maxi Discount" and "Maxi Pro Gold" customer loyalty cards, aimed at consolidating relations between Maxi and its customers through a broad range of benefits, increased significantly in terms of membership during 2013, which enabled, during the first quarter of 2014, reaching the impressive figure of 200,000 members.

In 2013 and under the "DCG", we highlight the distribution segment of exclusive trade names focused on "Impulse" products (appetizers and chewing gum) and "Drinks" (mostly, brands of Portuguese wines). These operations were successful, with growth of 15%.
Regarding Human Resources, the high standards have been maintained through the implementation of dynamic and careful selection and recruitment policies, aimed at attracting and selecting the best professionals. The training plan was continued during the year, with general actions and actions dedicated to the Company's different areas of operation in the Distribution sector, aimed at valorising and strengthening the skills of all the employees.
We also highlight the "Maxi Academy", which ministered four specialisation courses in "Shop Managers" and culminated with the positive appraisal and certification of close to 20 new employees for managerial positions in various outlets of the shop network and logistic support units.
Also concerning training, special reference should be made to the social responsibility project "Fazer Pescar" (Doing Fishing), which seeks to support the insertion of deprived young people, and which this year had 32 trainees, 16 of whom with training in the Distribution area. Covering approximately 10 months, a variety of training is ministered under this project on matters such as citizenship, elementary subjects and specialisation areas. Supplementarily, the project provides two daily meals, transport, clothing and regular medical supervision.
During these courses, where various employees of the Group were given the opportunity to minister training, it was possible to record a very positive evolution of learning and the total dedication of all the trainees, which led, merely as an example, to a rate of absenteeism below 1%. It was with great satisfaction that all the trainees were certified with a positive appraisal, and, consequently, were immediately recruited into the Company's staff.
For 2014, the investment level of the previous year will be maintained in this country, through the expansion of the retail networks and the reinforcement of the supporting infrastructures.
Plans have been made for the opening of seven new outlets, the expansion of 3 existing outlets, the remodelling of two shops and the start-up of the construction of three new outlets.
For the "Maxi" insignia, plans have been made for the opening, in Benguela, in June 2014, of a new shop with a sales area of around 3,000 m², located in a "MaxiPark" complex, which will represent the first outlet in this important Angolan city.
Also for "Maxi", in the month of October, there are plans for the opening of a new outlet, in Luanda, in the "Congolenses" zone and the expansion of two existing outlets, in Luanda Sul and Zango.
At the same time, the projects will be developed with a view to the start-up of the construction, during 2014, of three new "MaxiPark" complexes, all medium-sized and in the metropolitan area of Luanda.
For the "bompreço" brand, we highlight the opening of a shop of around 1,000 m², in April 2014, in the Samba zone, in the city of Luanda. At the same time, the search for new locations for this proximity network will be maintained, and it is expected that a new place will be contracted for the Benfica zone, in the country's capital.
For "Casa de Coração", it is expected that four new shops will be opened in June, three in the metropolitan region of Luanda, in Mulemba, Rocha Pinto and Cacuaco, and one shop in Benguela. The expansion of the Morro Bento shop is scheduled for October, which will increase from its current sales area of 800 m² to 1,700 m², and will enable, among other aspects, broadening the range of home furniture.
In the area of Distribution of exclusives, the outlook for 2014 is the continuation of the representations already operated in the "Impulse" and Drinks" business units, with the objective for this year being the improvement and boosting of various trade marketing actions in close collaboration with the Represented entities.
The start-up of carbonated drinks wholesale activity is expected for 2014, through the acquisition of an operation with around 20 years of experience in the Angolan market, and which primarily operates in the sale of drinks with returnable containers.
In the supporting infrastructures, the positive and negative chilling component of the distribution centre will be doubled, and the shop supply fleet will be reinforced with a view to supplying new geographic regions.
As in 2013, the focus on "Customer Service" will be maintained during 2014, with improved attendance, product offer and product Quality, Hygiene and Food Safety, and continued leadership in low prices.
The focus on the valorisation and selection of human resources will be maintained, through an even more ambitious training plan and new specialisation courses under the "Maxi Academy". In order to pursue these objectives, we highlight the recent inauguration of the Teixeira Duarte Professional Development Centre, an autonomous unit with various areas of action, located in Luanda Sul, which will concentrate all the training of the areas of action of the Teixeira Duarte Group in Angola and has capacity to minister an annual total of 800,000 hours of training.
For 2014, the Company will maintain its focus on the "Fazer Pescar" project, with 34 new trainees, 17 of whom with training in the Distribution area, in a specific "Shop Operator" course.
In South Africa, where the Group operates exclusively in the area of procurement and representation of trade names, the important facts during 2013 included the 20% increase of the sales of "GND" and the strengthening of the partnership with the "PepsiCo Matutano" Group, with the extension of the contract for representation of impulse products.
For the year currently underway, along with the consolidation of relations with the existing partners and suppliers, efforts will be directed towards the search for new products for the markets where the Group operates.
In Brazil, continuity was given to the implementation of the business through the company "TDD Brasil, Limitada", with the selection of managerial staff, the implementation of the supporting information technology system and the obtaining of the licenses required for operations.
With regard to the "Distribution of Exclusives" and products where the Company operates with very competitive prices, the search for new products for the markets where the range of references offered is capable of being differentiating will be continued.
The Teixeira Duarte Group began to operate in this sector in Portugal in 1996, with its current operations in the national market being through "TDARCOL - SGPS, S.A." in the areas of Liquid Fuel and Lubricants, Gas and Solar Energy, and in Brazil through the subsidiary "ALVORADA PETRÓLEO S/A", involved in the extraction and marketing of oil.
In fuel, Teixeira Duarte operates, directly or through concessions, 60 fuel stations, under the trade name AVIA.
In gas, the Group operates under the brand DIGAL and has 700 reservoirs for local supplies and a distribution network of piped gas of over 350 Km, supply approximately 65,000 housing units, in addition to a structure for the filling and distribution of bottled gas, and has the exclusive national representation of the trade name Campingaz.
In the area of solar thermal energy, the Group's companies represent, in Portugal, the international trade names SOLAHART and SONNENKRAFT, where its subsidiaries are market leaders.
In Brazil, Teixeira Duarte indirectly holds 43.2% of the share capital of the company "ALVORADA PETRÓLEO S/A", based in Belo Horizonte.

In non-consolidated terms and in order to provide an overall view of the total activity during 2013, we disclose that the Group's operating income in the Energy sector reached the total value of 126,601 thousand euros, corresponding to a reduction of 11.8% relative to 2012.
Regarding the fuel area, 2013 was characterised by the exacerbation of the adverse economic circumstances and by the aggravation of the austerity measures implemented in Portugal, with consequent negative impact both on private consumption and investment. In this context, there was a reduction of the consumption of oil products, reflected on the activity which recorded a slight decline in liquid fuel sales, in terms of quantities, of 5.5% in relation to the previous year, with Turnover having stood at a total of 99,711 thousand euros.
The lubricants sector maintained its good performance, consolidating its sales and market position.
In gas, in addition to the adverse exogenous environment, there was also a significant increase of the product's price in markets, which was reflected in the activity of this sector.
In spite of the reduction of consumption per capita in piped propane gas, it was possible to maintain the number of consumers.
The projects for the terminal and tank facilities in the port of Aveiro and the installation of a new gas bottle filling line in the DIGAL facilities, in Granja, in Sintra, were concluded, with their operational start-up being expected to take place in the first months of 2014.
Concerning solar energy, the level of activity was in line with the previous year, continuing to assure the maintenance of the thermal solar equipment installed under the government's incentive programme which ended in 2010.
Teixeira Duarte began its action in the Automotive Sector in Angola in 1991, and currently pursues its activity through a group of companies which represent various trade names in the following market segments:
Light: Chevrolet, JMC, Honda, Mahindra, Nissan, Peugeot, Renault, SsangYong and Isuzu.
Heavy: Renault Trucks, UD Trucks and Randon.
Motorcycles: Honda, Piaggio, Vespa, Gilera and Hyosung.
Equipment: Nissan Forklift and Wacker Neuson.
Generators: Denyo, Pramac, Honda Power Products and Powermate.
Not considering the currency conversion effect, there was an effective growth of activity of 10.7%, where this good performance was influenced by the marketing of two new brands and, especially, by the growth of the after-sales segment.
219,605
203,970
In non-consolidated terms and in order to provide an overall view of the total activity during 2013, we disclose that the Group's operating income in the Automotive sector reached the total value of 369,917 thousand euros, corresponding to growth of 11.4% relative to 2012.
In 2013, the Angolan market of vehicles imported by companies which officially represent trade names maintained its trend of growth recorded over recent years, having reached 32,667 units, corresponding to 9% growth in relation to the previous year. Particular note should be made of the light passenger vehicle market, which currently represents 65% of the automotive market in Angola and where the Group operates with nine different insignias, enabling an offer of automotive solutions for all market segments.
In this area of activity of the Teixeira Duarte Group, we highlight the strategic investments made at various facilities, especially the TDA Centre of Talatona and Viana, in the metropolitan area of Luanda, and the TDA Centre of Catumbela, in the province of Benguela, all of which offer the broad 3S concept - showrooms, service and spare parts (sale of vehicles, maintenance workshops and sale of spare parts), whose activity follows the most advanced standards of quality, enabling high performance service in all the segments in which it operates.
The year of 2013 was marked by the expansion of the network, through the opening of new concessions, currently covering the provinces of Luanda, Benguela, Huíla, Namibe, Cunene and Huambo, which has led to significantly higher exposure and coverage of the brands marketed throughout the entire country.
Just in the concessions held directly by the Group's companies, there are ten showrooms available and open to the public, covering a total of 10,300 m², representing growth of 65% in relation to the previous year, and 6 workshops, corresponding to 22.850 m², a further 37% than in 2012.
In the Light segment, we highlight the contribution of the Renault, Nissan and Chevrolet trade names which, as a whole, account for around 80% of the total turnover in this category.
Renault surpassed the defined objectives, with the number of vehicles sold having grown by 28%, strongly sustained by the Duster, Sandero and Logan models which, together, represent 93% of the sales of this well-known trade name.
Albeit with more moderate growth, Nissan continued to be the trade name that most contributed to the sector's sales, with its turnover having been leveraged particularly by the Hardbody and Micra models.

Chevrolet grew by 4%, maintaining its status as a reference trade name in the segment of vehicles entering into the market. The marketing of the new Trax model began at the end of the year, for which growth of sales is expected during 2014, and the first orders were made of the new Trailblazer model, to be marketed in 2014.
In order to supplementing the available range of products, the representation of two new automotive trade names, SsangYong and Isuzu started in 2013. SsangYong, of Korean origin, recorded progressive sales of the four models being marketed throughout the year, where Korando is the model with most weight in the sales of this trade name. Regarding Isuzu, of Japanese origin, with General Motors as one of its main shareholders, the introduction of this trade name has reinforced the Group's representativeness in the pick-up segment.
For the year underway, the outlook is of moderate growth of the number of units sold, sustained by a network of points of sale which are increasingly closer to the customers and after-sales service of international standards.
In the Heavy segment, the monitoring of stock levels has continued, aimed at adjusting the line-up to the models showing highest demand. The performance of Randon was excellent with 75% growth in the number of vehicles sold in relation to the previous year. However, in the tractor segment, the sales of Renault Trucks and UD Trucks were less than expected, although the outlook is for an improvement of Renault Trucks in 2014. In the case of UD Trucks, a redefinition of the this trade name's strategy for the African continent is pending, in a perspective of offering products with the usual quality, but at more competitive prices.
Notwithstanding the above, a considerable investment was made in expanding the points of sale and assistance to heavy vehicles, namely in Viana, Lubango and Lobito, thus assuring support to the trade names at various points of the country.
The appearance of financial solutions offered by banking entities should boost this category in 2014; therefore growth of sales is expected.
The Motorcycle segment continued to show good performance throughout 2013, having grown by 55% in terms of units marketed, reaching a total of 4,000 units.
The performance of Honda motorcycles was very positive with growth of 57% in relation to 2012, corresponding to 3,000 units sold. This was to a large extent due to the expansion of the "TDA Shops" retail network, which enabled a massive sale of the models at a more accessible price.
Also showing a very positive performance, Piaggio recorded growth of 44% relative to 2012, due to the expansion of the shop network and the reinforcement of the cult image of the "Vespa" which was reflected in a very interesting acceptance of the entering models, especially among the middle class.
The work of the previous year was also continued in the area of motorcycle competitions, which enabled the team representing the Group - "TDA Paixão Automóvel" - to emerge victorious in two national championships of Speed and Cross-Country.
In this Motorcycle segment, the outlook for 2014 is of reduction of sales of the Piaggio trade name for some models. For lower cost Honda motorcycles, the expansion of the "TDA Shops" network should enable growth of sales of more accessible priced models.
In the Equipment segment, the marketing of the Austrian-German trade name Wacker Neuson started in May with a range of light and compact equipment up to 15 tons, enabling entry into the construction sector through the provision of this specific equipment, with a dedicated showroom in Viana.
For Equipment, the Chinese "Heli" stacker will enter into the portfolio of Represented trade names during the year underway, which will enable broadening the range of products offered at more competitive prices.
Generators recorded growth of 17%, reaching the equivalent of USD 10 million of sales and services rendered, above all as a result of the growth of the value of the sales of medium power generators and the number of maintenance contracts. Denyo continues to stands out as the reference trade name for medium/high power generators, having achieved growth of 120% in terms of value.
The new Rainha Ginga premises, an outlet exclusively dedicated to the sale and technical assistance of generators proved to be a great success in 2013, enabling the creation of conditions to extend the 24h technical assistance to individual customers, a service formerly limited to business customers.
For Generators, focus will be maintained on strengthening the after-sales teams and 24h Technical Assistance, in view of the significance of this equipment for our customers and the importance of assuring excellent service levels.
At the TDA Shops, the new generation of shop will also offer services for tyre change and fast maintenance, thus diversifying the concept and expanding the range of the existing product offer.
The new workshop facilities of the recently created TDA Centres of Viana and Lobito, as well as the new workshop concept dedicated to the provision of fast services without scheduled appointment ("TDA Express"), have contributed decisively to the growth of the After-sales area. In 2013, focus continued to be given to the quality of the after-sales service, improving the competence of the teams through specialised training and introducing new processes of control.
During 2013, we highlight the opening of two more "TDA Shops", in Viana (February) and Talatona (July), with the network thus having five shops in the metropolitan region of Luanda by the end of the year. These points of sale are dedicated to the marketing of Automotive Accessories, Tyres, Lubricants, Spare Parts for Automobiles, Motorcycles and Generators.
The marketing of two new segments at the TDA shops also began in 2013 - Lubricants of the Avia brand and Tyres of the Infinity brand.
Regarding Human Resources, the high standards have been maintained through the implementation of dynamic and careful selection and recruitment policies, aimed at attracting and selecting the best professionals. The training plan was continued during the year, with general actions and actions dedicated to the Company's different areas of operation in the Automotive sector, aimed at valorising and strengthening the skills of all the employees.
We also highlight the "TDA Academy", which ministered two specialisation courses in "Intermediate Managers" and culminated with the positive appraisal and certification of close to 12 new employees.
Also concerning training, special reference should be made to the social responsibility project "Fazer Pescar" (Doing Fishing), which seeks to support the insertion of deprived young people, and which this year had 32 trainees, 16 of whom with training in the Automotive area. Covering approximately ten months, a variety of training is ministered under this project on matters such as citizenship, elementary subjects and specialisation areas. Supplementarily, the project provides two daily meals, transport, clothing and regular medical supervision.
In this After-sales area, sustained growth is expected for 2014 in the earnings of the workshops and sales of spare parts, leveraged on the new network of workshops and strong sales achieved in previous years.
The focus on the valorisation and selection of human resources will be maintained, through an even more ambitious training plan and new specialisation courses under the "TDA Academy". In order to pursue these objectives, we highlight the recent inauguration of the Teixeira Duarte Professional Development Centre, an autonomous unit with various areas of action, located in Luanda Sul, which will concentrate all the training of the areas of action of the Teixeira Duarte Group in Angola and has capacity to minister an annual total of 800,000 hours of training.
For 2014, the Company will maintain its focus on the "Fazer Pescar" project, with 34 new trainees, 17 of whom with training in the Automotive area, in a specific "Electromechanic" course.
Teixeira Duarte was a founding shareholder of "Banco Comercial Português, S.A." in 1985, and has maintained a relevant stake in the Bank's equity since this date, whose relative position in the share capital has declined over the last few years, having fallen below 2% in 2013. Under these circumstances, the stake is no longer considered a qualifying holding.
In 2013, the Group maintained a holding in "Banco Comercial Português, S.A.", classified partly as a cash investment and partly as financial assets available for sale.
In this context, the overall quantity of shares held by the companies included in the Teixeira Duarte Group in "Banco Comercial Português, S.A." fell from 428,211,281 to 357,000,000 shares, corresponding to 1.81% of this bank's share capital and voting rights.
At the end of 2013, the book value of this holding, expressed in IFRS, stood at 59,405 thousand euros, which, in spite of the aforesaid reduction of shares in relation to 2012, reflects an increase of 27,289 thousand euros in the value of the stake held as at 31 December 2013.
In 2013, the Teixeira Duarte Group maintained its stake in "Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A.", whose book value, expressed in IFRS, stood at the total value of 25,226 thousand euros, and also continued its management of this holding, partially as a cash investment and partially as financial assets available for sale.
Teixeira Duarte pursued its activity in the different sectors and markets in which it operates, where the following relevant facts occurred after the closing of the financial year, which were disclosed in due time to the market:
Following the meetings held with the Ministries of Finance and Land Transport under the IX Joint Follow-up Commission between Portugal and Venezuela, the President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela authorised, in January 2014, the Ministry of Popular Power for Land Transport to contract the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of the "Nueva Autopista Alterna Caracas-La Guaira" project with the company "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A.", 100% held by TD,SA.
This authorisation was given following the Memorandum of Understanding signed on 18 June 2013 with the aforesaid subsidiary under the "Supplementary Agreement to the Framework Agreement for Cooperation between the Republic of Venezuela and the Portuguese Republic, on matters of economic and energy cooperation".
This represents yet another important step in the award of a contract for a motorway covering a total length of 19 km with three lanes in each direction, which will connect Caracas to La Guaira (Maiquetia Airport Zone), involving the execution of 4 km in viaducts and 9 km in tunnels, with a forecast implementation period of 54 months and estimated price of USD 4,787 million.
On 2 April 2014, the enterprise group which includes its 100% held subsidiary "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A." was notified of the Service Order issued by the Algerian entity "AGA - Algérienne de Gestion des Autoroutes" for the contract "Réalisation des Installations et Equipements d'Exploitation de l'autoroute Este-Ouest, Lot Ouest" (Execution of facilities and equipment for the operation of the East-West Motorway, West Lot), in Algeria.
The aforesaid "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A." is the leader of the enterprise group, holding a stake of 48%, with 46% belonging to the Algerian enterprise group "ETRHB HADDAD" and 6% to the Spanish "SICE, S.A.".
The contract has a foreseen period of twenty-three months counted from the aforesaid 2 April 2014 and an overall value of € 253,645,332 (two hundred and fifty-three million, six hundred and forty-five thousand and three hundred and thirty-two euros), increased by VAT at the legal rate in force, of which 35.7% is paid in euros and the remaining 64.3% in Algerian dinar. Pursuant to its share in the aforesaid enterprise group, "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A." is entitled to receive € 121,749,760 (one hundred and twenty-one million, seven hundred and forty-nine thousand and sixty euros).
Growth of activity is expected during 2014 in various countries of importance in the Group's activity abroad.
The Order Book of the Teixeira Duarte Group for the construction sector reached the impressive total value of 2,039,203 thousand euros as at 31 December 2013, corresponding to a reduction of 23.8% relative to 31 December 2012.
Therefore, and notwithstanding any new contracts that may arise, the Group has assured good business levels in construction in the foreign market which, in spite of the current unfavourable circumstances in the domestic market, has implied that, as a whole, Teixeira Duarte already has contracts to the total value of 785,852 thousand euros for 2014 and 464,499 thousand euros for 2015, distributed as follows by the markets of operation of the Teixeira Duarte Group:
| 2014 | Contribution (%) | 2015 | Contribution (%) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Portugal | 77,469 | 9.9% | 22,373 | 4.8% |
| Angola | 134,016 | 17.1% | 97,134 | 20.9% |
| Algeria | 118,373 | 15.1% | 119,318 | 25.7% |
| Brazil | 119,171 | 15.2% | 10,814 | 2.3% |
| Mozambique | 42,829 | 5.5% | 23,597 | 5.1% |
| Venezuela | 284,577 | 36.2% | 190,461 | 41.0% |
| Other Markets | 9,417 | 1.2% | 802 | 0.2% |
| Total | 785,852 | 100.0% | 464,499 | 100.0% |
The development of action in other activity sectors will also be pursued, in particular in Distribution, whenever possible also giving priority to ventures in external markets, which, due to their dynamics, are becoming increasingly important in the Teixeira Duarte Group.
For 2014, Teixeira Duarte expects to achieve consolidated operating income of 1,600 million euros.
In view of the proposal undertaken relative to the distribution to the employees and members of the Board of Directors of part of the net income for the year, and in compliance with the rules currently in force, this amount of € 2,500,000 (two million and five hundred thousand euros) was recorded as a cost for the financial year of 2013, with the consequent reduction of the net income heading recorded in the financial statements attached to this Report and also subject to approval at the General Meeting.
Therefore, with the approval of this Annual Report, the Shareholders will also approve the aforesaid distribution of net income to the employees and members of the Board of Directors, in this last case to be deliberated by the Remuneration Committee.
It should also be noted on this issue that its subsidiaries, namely TD-EC, are committed to distributing part of their net income for 2013 to the members of their boards of directors and employees, to a total of 5,665,000.00 euros, with these subsidiaries also having recorded this value as a cost for 2013, with the consequent reductions of the respective net income headings.
The net income whose proposed appropriation is presented herein corresponds to the amounts calculated as at 31 December 2013 plus the cost of € 2,500,000 (two million and five hundred thousand euros) which, being planned to be distributed to the employees and directors, was, in compliance with the applicable new rules, recorded as a cost of the actual financial year of 2013 in the financial statements which are an integral part of this Management Report and which, should they be approved, confirm, on the one hand the agreement of the Shareholders to distribute profit to the employees and members of the Board of Directors and, on the other hand, that the Net Income object of the proposed appropriation of net income is € 64,028,905.23 (sixty-four million, twenty-eight thousand, nine hundred and five euros and twenty-three euro cents).
Moreover, it is also the policy of Teixeira Duarte to prioritise the reinforcement of the company's equity and assure the continued and balanced distribution of dividends to the shareholders.
Considering these assumptions, the Board of Directors proposes that the net income of "TEIXEIRA DUARTE, S.A." for the financial year of 2013, amounting to € 64,028,905.23 (sixty-four million, twenty-eight thousand, nine hundred and five euros and twenty-three euro cents), be appropriated as follows:
| Reinforcement of the legal reserve | 11,000,000.00 € |
|---|---|
| Reinforcement of the free reserves | 46,728,905.23 € |
| Dividends to shareholders | 6,300,000.00 € |

1. Capital structure (share capital, number of shares, distribution of the capital by the shareholders, etc.), including indication of shares not listed for trading, different categories of shares, their inherent rights and duties and percentage of share capital represented by each category (article 245-A, number 1, subparagraph a)).
The share capital of the TD,SA, of the total value of € 210,000,000.00 (two hundred and ten million euros) is represented by 420,000,000 shares with the nominal value of € 0.50 (fifty euro cents) each.
The shares are all ordinary, book entry, registered and listed for trading in regulated markets (NYSE EURONEXT LISBON). The shares belong to a single category, each corresponding to one vote, and there are no shares with special rights or duties.
There are no restrictions to the transferability of shares, namely clauses of consent for disposal or limits to the holding of shares.
3. Number of own shares, corresponding percentage share capital and percentage voting rights to which the own shares would correspond (article 245-A, number 1, subparagraph a)).
There are no own shares.
4. Significant agreements of which the company is a party and which enter into force, are altered or cease in the event of a change of control of the company following a public take-over bid, as well as the respective effects, unless, due to their nature, their disclosure would be seriously harm the company, unless the company is specifically obliged to disclose this information due to other legal requirements (article 245-A, number 1, subparagraph j)).
There are no agreements with these characteristics.

There is no statutory provision nor have any defensive measures been adopted establishing limitation of the number of votes which may be held or exercised by a single shareholder, individually or in concertation with other shareholders.
Consequently, the provisions in the present rule and in Recommendation number I.4 are not applicable to TD,SA.
As far as the Company knows, there are no agreements between shareholders, namely those which might lead to restrictions on matters relative to the transfer of securities or voting rights.
It should also be noted, for the effect of Recommendation number I.5 of the Corporate Governance Code of the CMVM, that no measures have been adopted whose effect is to demand payments or the assumption of costs by TD,SA in the event of transfer of control or change of the composition of the management board, and which might jeopardise the free transferability of shares and the free assessment by the shareholders of the performance of members of the management board.
It is disclosed that, as at 31 December 2013, the qualifying holdings, calculated under the terms of article 20 of the Securities Market Code, were as follows:
d) 9,419,634 shares owned by members of the Board of Directors of NGDI Gestão e Investimento Imobiliário, S.A. who are not members of the Board of Directors of the company indicated in subparagraph c) above, corresponding to 2.24% of the share capital and voting rights (none of whom, individually, reach any qualifying holding), with this imputation having been made in conformity with the interpretation of the CMVM, where there is disagreement.

9. Special powers of the management body, namely with respect to deliberations to increase the share capital (article 245-A, number 1, subparagraph i), indicating, with respect to these powers, the date on which they were attributed, period until which this competence may be exercised, maximum quantitative limit of the share capital increase, amount already issued under the attribution of powers and method of accomplishment of the attributed powers.
In addition to the other duties and competence entrusted by the Law, Articles of Association or through delegation of the General Meeting, the Board of Directors is responsible for:
a) exercising the fullest powers of management of the Company and carrying out all the acts and operations pertinent to the achievement of its corporate object;
b) negotiating and granting all contracts, independently of their scope, form and nature, where the Company is a party;
c) representing the Company in and out of court, actively and passively, promoting, contesting, transacting or waiving in any proceedings and engaging in all types of arbitration;
d) preparing, if deemed appropriate, its internal regulations, defining the rule and procedures relative to its operation;
e) proceeding with the distribution of areas of responsibility amongst its members and entrusting any of the members with specific matters of the competence of the Board of Directors;
f) empowering any of its members sufficiently to, jointly or individually, perform certain tasks or specific actions;
g) appointing attorneys or mandatories of the Company to carry out certain acts or categories of acts, with the powers and duties defined in the respective powers of attorney which it has granted for the effect;

l) providing bonds and personal or real guarantees on behalf of the Company, namely sureties or securities.
The Articles of Association of the Company do not confer any powers to the Board of Directors relative to any share capital increases.
Although the shareholder with a qualifying holding in the share capital of TD,SA is the Pension Fund of the Banco Comercial Português Group, the truth is that this holding has been imputed to Banco Comercial Português, S.A.
It happens that for almost the past 30 years, the companies included in the Teixeira Duarte Group have maintained business relations with Banco Comercial Português, S.A. and its participated companies, under normal market terms and conditions, where, as at 31 December 2013, the total value of the loans taken out from this institution reached approximately 346 million euros, corresponding to 25.4% of the Group's total bank debt.
It is disclosed that the contracting of guarantees with Banco Comercial Português, S.A. and its participated companies reached the total amount of 38 million euros, representing 5% of the total value of the guarantees contracted by the Group.
Finally, it is disclosed that the Group also has financial lease contracts with Banco Comercial Português, S.A. and its participated companies, of a total value of 171 million euros, corresponding to 83% of the total value of these types of contracts.
There are no other significant business relations between the holders of qualifying stakes and the company.
In view of the nature of the relations identified above and the fact that their scope is restricted to areas that are already highly regulated and supervised by various entities, it is deemed that there is no reason that would justify the supervisory body establishing necessary procedures and criteria for the definition of the relevant level of significant business with shareholders holding qualifying stakes, or with entities which are engaged with them in any of the relations established in number 1 of article 20 of the Securities Market Code, nor that the conduct of business of significant relevance should depend on the prior opinion of this body.
Currently, the Board of the General Meeting is composed of the following members:
| Chairman: | Mr. Rogério Paulo Castanho Alves, lawyer, with professional domicile at Avenida Álvares Cabral, 61 - 4º, | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1250-017 Lisboa, Portugal; | ||||||||
All the identified members of the Board of the General Meeting were elected at the General Meeting held on 20 May 2011, to perform duties in this body during the four-year period 2011/2014.
There are no restrictions on voting rights, namely limitations to the exercise of voting rights dependent on the ownership of a number or percentage of shares, hence the periods imposed for the exercise of voting rights are the only limitations that are indicated for the case of voting by correspondence.
Furthermore, pursuant to article 13 of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, only shareholders with at least one voting right, on the
registration date, corresponding to 0 hours (GMT) of the 5th business day prior to the date of the General Meeting, may participate in the General Meeting and discuss and vote therein.
Each share, under the conditions referred to above, corresponds to one vote. Although the Articles of Association foresee, in article 7, the possibility of shares without voting rights, the truth is that there are no, and have never been any, shares without voting rights.
For the exercise of the right to vote by correspondence and for the execution of all other procedures indicated in the Articles of Association, the Company has implemented the indispensable means for the effect, providing all the necessary forms on its website and at its head office, namely drafts of letters and the voting ballot, as well as instructions for their completion.
TD,SA believes that the specific security requirements inherent to the voting process through electronic means are very significant, namely with respect, on the one hand, to the technical means necessary to verify the authenticity of the corresponding explanations of vote, as well as to guarantee the integrity and confidentiality of the respective contents, and, likewise, recognises the high level of security and operational reliability required in the receipt of these explanations of vote.
The considerations referred to above and the fact that the General Meetings of the leading listed company of the Teixeira Duarte Group traditionally has a very high representation of share capital, underlie the reason why the Company has not implemented the possibility of the exercise of voting rights through electronic means.
Lastly, it should also be noted that TD,SA has not established any type of systems privileging rights relative to assets or mechanisms with the effect of causing a time lag between the right to receive dividends or the subscription of new securities and the voting right of each ordinary share.
The Articles of Association of TD,SA do not stipulate a maximum percentage voting rights that may be exercised by a single shareholder (individually or in concertation with other shareholders) or by shareholders which are engaged in any of the relations listed in number 1 of article 20.
There are no statutory provisions which impose qualifying majority quorums for deliberation, by the shareholders, on specific topics, apart from those legally established.
Indeed, article 16 of the Articles of Association establishes that "the deliberations of the General Meeting are taken by the majority of the votes cast, without prejudice to the legal provisions which, in certain cases, might require qualifying majorities or establish other forms of acceptance of the proposals".
Since its incorporation in 30 November 2009, the Company adopted a Corporate Governance model known as the Latin unitary board structure or one-tier model, whose governing bodies comprise, in addition to the General Meeting and its respective Board, a Board of Directors and two autonomous Supervisory Bodies: the Supervisory Board and Chartered Accountants Firm.
On this issue, it is important to note the collaboration between all these structures of the Group, as well as the advantages arising from these synergies, reflected in the privileged and effective manner of the achievement of objectives undertaken by all as collection action.
The adopted governance model fully complies with its underlying objectives, that is, ensuring that the Company maintains good levels of operation and efficiency in the performance of duties by each governing body, both independently and jointly, thus proving to be appropriate to the modus operandi of the Company, its structures and members of the governing bodies, in particular of the Board of Directors.
Regarding the rules applicable to the appointment and replacement of the members of the management body, it should be recalled that the members of the Board of Directors are elected at the General Meeting, through the list system, for four years, coinciding with the financial years, and may be re-appointed once or twice, under the terms and the legally established limits, and take up office as soon as they are elected, without further formalities.
Under the special election rules established in the Law, the Company adopted the systems which enables a Director to be elected amongst the persons proposed in lists which are undersigned and presented by groups of shareholders, provided that none of these groups own shares representing more than twenty percent and less than ten percent of the share capital. Pursuant to this choice, any Director elected in this manner automatically replaces the one last on the list who would have fallen due in the election of the Directors.
The Articles of Association do not foresee the existence of any alternate Director, but rather establish five as the number of absences to meetings, consecutively or interpolated, without justification accepted by the Board of Directors, per term of office, as leading to the situation of definitive absence of the Director, with the consequences established in the Law.
Apart from the circumstances referred to above, the Articles of Association do not establish any specific rule for the replacement of the members of the Board of Directors, so the general system established in the Commercial Companies Code on this matter is applicable, that is, the Board of Directors may replace any Director who fails to perform duties for any of the reasons laid down in the Law, namely due to resignation or the accumulation of absences, and hence, should this be deemed appropriate and under the applicable terms and conditions, proceed with the corresponding co-optation, which must be ratified at the first following General Meeting.
17. Composition, as applicable, of the Board of Directors, Executive Board of Directors and General and Supervisory Board, indicating the minimum and maximum statutory number of members, statutory duration of the term of office, number of permanent members, date of the first appointment and date of the end of term of office of each member.

Chairman:

Directors:
Mr. Manuel Maria Calainho de Azevedo Teixeira Duarte
Mr. Joel Vaz Viana de Lemos

At the General Meeting of 20 May 2011, they were all re-elected to their positions, to perform duties during the four-year period of 2011/2014.
The Director Mr. Diogo Bebiano Branco de Sá Viana Rebelo was elected for the first time at the General Meeting of 20 May 2011, to perform duties with all the other re-elected members during the term of office of 2011/2014.
The Director Mr. Jorge Ricardo de Figueiredo Catarino was appointed to the position for the first time on the date of the Company's incorporation, on 30 November 2009, to perform duties during the 2009/2010 term of office. He terminated his duties as a Director of TD,SA in 2011, having continued to perform duties in the Administration of other companies of the Group.

Under article 17 of the Articles of Association, the Board of Directors should be composed of a minimum number of five and maximum of eleven members. Furthermore, when electing this Board, the General Meeting should determine the number of Directors which, within these limits, should comprise the Board for each term of office and appoint, among them, the member who will perform the duties of Chairman. The Articles of Association do not foresee the existence of alternate members.
Under the terms of number 2 of article 10 of the Articles of Association, the members of the governing bodies are elected for periods of four years, as noted above.
18. Distinction between the executive and non-executive members of the Board of Directors and, regarding non-executive members, identification of members who may be considered independent, or, if applicable, identification of the independent members of the General and Supervisory Board.
18.1. The independence of the members of the General and Supervisory Board and the members of the Audit Committee is appraised under the terms of the current legislation and, regarding the other members of the Board of Directors, members are considered independent when they are neither associated to any specific group of interests in the company nor in any circumstance which might affect the impartiality of their analysis or decision-making, namely due to:
a. Having been an employee of the company or companies which are in a controlling or group relationship with the former during the last three years;
b. Having, in the last three years, provided services or established significant business relations with the company or companies which are in a controlling or group relationship with the former, whether directly or as a partner, administrator, manager or director of a legal person;
c. Being a beneficiary of remuneration paid by the company or companies which are in a controlling or group relationship with the former in addition to the remuneration arising from the performance of directorship duties;
d. Living in non-marital cohabitation or being the spouse, parent or family member in a straight line and up to the 3rd degree, inclusively, in a collateral line, of directors or natural persons who directly or indirectly hold a qualifying stake;
The Board of Directors is exclusively composed of executive members, which is reflected in the effectiveness, operationality and proximity of the matters entrusted to them.
At the same time, the total independence and compatibility of the members of the Supervisory Board allows for impartial and useful intervention in the supervision of the Company's activity, not only from an accounting point of view - where it benefits from the regular intervention of the Chartered Accountants Firm - but also from a policy perspective, in this case with the appropriate limits and scope essential to safeguard compliance with the legal and regulatory rules in force, all with a view to achieving constant transparency and proper levels of disclosure of information to the market in general and to the shareholders, especially at the General Meeting.
TD,SA has chosen to maintain all its Directors in executive duties since the duties which would have been entrusted to any non-executive Directors - namely regarding supervision, monitoring and assessment of the activity of the executive members - are carried out, with full effectiveness, by the Supervisory Board, Remuneration Committee and General Meeting.
Particular note should also be made of the good interrelations between all the governing bodies, not only between the Chartered Accountants Firm and the Supervisory Board, which hold periodic meetings, but also between these bodies and the Board of Directors, whereby all the Directors have provided the information requested by the other members of the governing bodies in due time and in an appropriate manner.
Therefore, considering that all the members of the Board of Directors perform executive duties, the present regulation is not applicable to TD,SA.
Nevertheless and on this issue, it is important to disclose, with respect to the independence of its members, that the Board of Directors considers that none are under any circumstances capable of affecting their impartiality in analysis and decision-making.
In view of the adopted corporate model, the composition and mode of operation of its governing bodies - namely the executive character of the Board of Directors and the independence of the Supervisory Board and Chartered Accountants Firm, without their being any delegation of competence, either amongst them or to other Committees - TD,SA considers that the appointment of non-executive members to perform duties within the Board of Directors would not result in any significant benefits to the good operation of the adopted model, which has proved suitable and efficient.
Pursuant to the principle of close collaboration between the governing bodies, it should be noted that, for the effect of the provisions in Recommendation number II.1.9, the Chairman of the Supervisory Board is called to all the meetings of periodic nature and for the approval of the documents presenting the accounts, and is sent copies of the minutes of all the meetings of the Board of Directors.
However, these documents are not sent directly by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, as indicated in this recommendation. These tasks are performed, through indication of the Chairman of the Board of Directors, by the services and secretarial office of TD,SA which distribute an agenda to all the participants and to the Company Secretary, who submits the minutes of the meetings of the Board of Directors to the Chairman of the Supervisory Board, after they have been duly signed.
Moreover, it should be added that, although the Chairman of the Board of Directors performs executive duties, there are no non-executive directors, hence the Board of Directors does not have to indicate, from among its members, an independent director to assure the coordination of the work of the other non-executive members, and the conditions to enable them to take decisions in an independent or informed manner or find other equivalent mechanisms to assure this coordination, in view of the adopted model. Accordingly, the provisions in Recommendation number II.1.10 are not applicable to TD,SA.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors, Mr. Pedro Maria Calainho Teixeira Duarte, is shareholder and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Teixeira Duarte - Sociedade Gestora de Participações Sociais, S.A., although he does not earn any remuneration for holding this position. Furthermore, we disclose that he is the brother of Mr. Miguel Calainho de Azevedo Teixeira Duarte and son of Mr. Pedro Pereira Coutinho Teixeira Duarte. It is also disclosed that his business relations established with Banco Comercial Português, S.A. are not of any significant nature.
The Director Mr. Manuel Maria Calainho de Azevedo Teixeira Duarte, is shareholder and Director of Teixeira Duarte - Sociedade Gestora de Participações Sociais, S.A., although he does not earn any remuneration for holding this position. Furthermore, we disclose that he is the cousin of Mr. Miguel Calainho de Azevedo Teixeira Duarte and nephew of Mr. Pedro Pereira Coutinho Teixeira Duarte. It is also disclosed that his business relations established with Banco Comercial Português, S.A. are not of any significant nature.
Regarding the remaining members of the Board of Directors, we disclose that none of them maintain habitual and significant family, professional or business relations, with shareholders who may be imputed a qualifying holding greater than 2% of the voting rights.
The Articles of Association of the Company define the competence of each of the governing bodies, namely in articles 12 (General Meeting), 19 (Board of Directors) and 23 (Supervisory Board and Chartered Accountants Firm).
There is no distribution or delegation of competence by any of the governing bodies, namely by the Board of Directors, to any specific committees or commissions, in particular an Executive Committee.
This circumstance essentially arises from the fact that the Board of Directors is exclusively composed of executive members, which is reflected in effectiveness of operationality and proximity to the matters of their competence, whereby any delegation in this regard would be redundant and counterproductive.
Notwithstanding the above, there is an organisational chart of the Teixeira Duarte Group, presented at the beginning of this Report, which illustrates the general organisational lines defined by the Board of Directors, which should, in particular:
There are no operating regulations or code of conduct for the governing bodies.
In view of the chosen corporate model, the composition of the Board of Directors (all the members are executive) and the fact that the competence and responsibilities of this body cannot be delegated to any other bodies, specialised committees, commissions or departments, the mode of operation of the Board of Directors is fairly simplified, added to the fact that the number of members included in this body is not of a sufficiently size to justify the stipulation, in regulations, of further rules on operationality.
The individual competence of each member is established by deliberation of the actual Board of Directors and their interaction is maintained in a regular form under the legally stipulated terms and considered sufficient for this purpose.
During 2013, the Board of Directors of TD,SA held 26 meetings.
For all due purposes, it is disclosed that the attendance of each member of this Board was as follows:
The Chairman of the Board of Directors, Mr. Pedro Maria Calainho Teixeira Duarte attended 25 meetings. The only meeting that he was unable to attend, due to be being on assignment abroad, was called with an urgent nature. Even so, he assured his representation, in this same meeting, by another member of the Board.
The Director Mr. Manuel Maria Calainho de Azevedo Teixeira Duarte attended all the meetings of the Board of Directors.
The Director Mr. Joel Vaz Viana de Lemos attended 22 of the meetings of the Board of Directors. He was unable to attend 4 meetings, due to be being on assignment abroad, having assured his representation by another Director at one of these meetings. His absences were justified accordingly.
The Director Mr. Carlos Gomes Baptista attended 25 of the meetings of the Board of Directors. He was unable to attend 1 meeting, due to be being on assignment abroad, with his absence having been justified accordingly.
The Director Mr. Diogo Bebiano Branco de Sá Viana Rebelo attended 25 of the meetings of the Board of Directors. The only meeting that he was unable to attend, due to be being on assignment abroad, was called with an urgent nature. Even so, he assured his representation, in this same meeting, by another member of the Board.
The Director Mr. Jorge Ricardo de Figueiredo Catarino attended 12 of the meetings of the Board of Directors and assured his representation by another Director at another meeting he was unable to attend. However, it should be recalled that he was elected to the position at the General Meeting of 25 May 2013, hence he only began to attend these Board meetings as of this date. He was unable to attend 5 meetings, due to be being on assignment abroad, having assured his representation by another Director at one of these meetings. His absences were justified accordingly.
The competent body for the assessment of the performance of the Company's Directors, all of whom are executive, is the General Meeting, which, under the terms of number 1 of article 376 of the Commercial Companies Code, carries out an annual general assessment of the management and supervision of the Company.
The Supervisory Board monitors, under the established terms described in this document, the action of the Board of Directors, ensuring compliance with a series of matters and issuing an opinion on the annual report and accounts which is submitted to the appraisal of the shareholders at the General Meeting.
Moreover, the Remuneration Committee assesses the activity developed by each Director for the purpose of establishing the respective remuneration, based on the remuneration policy approved at the General Meeting.
Furthermore, it is disclosed that due to the organisational and functional model established for the different governing bodies, it was not considered appropriate to create any committees or commissions for the purpose of assuring a competent and independent assessment of the individual and overall performance of the executive Directors. Therefore, as described, there are no commissions or committees.
Indeed, in view of the adopted model and the structure and composition of the Governing Bodies, these duties are explicitly entrusted to the General Meeting, Supervisory Board and Remuneration Committee, under the terms indicated above.
Likewise and for the same reasons, it was considered that it was unnecessary to create any committee or commission to reflect on the adopted governance system,structure and practices, verify their effectiveness and propose to the competent bodies the measures to take with a view to their improvement.
These duties are performed and developed by each of the Governing Bodies which, better than any other body created only for this effect, are successful in identifying any constraints and difficulties which might have been encountered, and in the same way, collaborate together in the assessment of the adopted corporate governance model, reporting and overcoming any operational and interaction difficulties.
Ultimately, the overall assessment of the action of the governing bodies is always entrusted to the shareholders at the General Meeting.
There are no predefined criteria for the assessment of the performance of the Executive Directors. Indeed, all the Directors are assessed in accordance with their respective performance during the year, based on fixed and achievable objectives, the Company's net income and various other parameters which, due to their diversity and variation over the years, are not to be considered exhaustive but rather adaptable to the circumstances of each period and each specific situation, pursuant to the remuneration policy approved annually at the General Meeting.
All the members of the Board of Directors of TD,SA have dozens of years "in-house", with professional paths conducted almost exclusively within the Teixeira Duarte Group, where, according to the Group's areas and sectors of action they supervised or monitored, they were appointed to other corporate positions. This also enabled them to report information to TD,SA on the action of these same entities and their corresponding implementation of the guidelines defined for the Teixeira Duarte Group.
However, there are various occasional situations of corporate positions held in other entities outside the Teixeira Duarte Group, where none of
these directors earn remuneration or are professionally bound to these entities, or subject to any circumstances which hinder their total availability to perform their duties as a member of the Board of Directors of TD,SA.

Currently, there are no specialised Committees or Commissions on management or supervisory matters, and the foreseen Executive Committee cannot even be constituted under article 20 the Articles of Association, although some members of the Board of Directors maintain frequent contact and sectorial meetings and hold regular meetings together, accompanied by other members of the Board of Directors of Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A. and the advisor to the Board of Directors.
Considering that there is neither an Executive Committee nor Chief Executive Officers, the present rule is not applicable to TD,SA.
Considering that there are no committees or commissions created under the Board of Directors, as noted in 2.7 above, the present rule is not applicable to TD,SA.
The adopted corporate model is usually referred to as the Latin one-tier model, accordingly the appointment of a Supervisory Board was selected as the supervisory body.
31. Composition, as applicable, of the Supervisory Board, Audit Committee, General and Supervisory Board or Financial Matters Committee, indicating the minimum and maximum statutory number of members, statutory duration of the term of office, number of permanent members, date of the first appointment and date of the end of term of office of each member. Reference may be made to the point of the report where this information is already presented pursuant to the provisions in number 18.
Pursuant to article 24 of the Articles of Association of TD,SA, the Supervisory Board is necessarily composed of three permanent members and one alternate, who should comply with the requirements and are entitled to use the powers established by law. When electing the members of this Board, the General Meeting must, mandatorily, elect one of them to perform the duties of Chairman.
As is the case with the other governing bodies and under the terms of number 2 of article 10 of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the members of the Supervisory Board are elected at the General Meeting, through the list system, for periods of four years, coinciding with the financial years, and may be re-appointed once or twice, under the terms and with the legally established limits.
Accordingly, the Supervisory Board is currently composed of the following members:
Chairman: Mr. António Gonçalves Monteiro
All the current members of the Supervisory Board were appointed at the time of the incorporation of the company on 30 November 2009, to perform duties during the term of office of 2009/2010.

All the current members fully comply with all the requirements of independence, and there is no incompatibility for the performance of their duties for any of them, under the terms established in the Commercial Companies Code.

Reference may be made to the point of the report where this information is already presented pursuant to the provisions in number 25.
During 2013, the Supervisory Board held 6 meetings, all of which were attended by all of its permanent members.
All the members of the Supervisory Board show the appropriate availability for the performance of their duties at TD,SA, namely for participation in the periodic meetings of the Board of Directors and Supervisory Board, and for follow-up of the Company's activity and the preparation and publication of the documents presenting the accounts, in coordination with the action of the Chartered Accountants Firm.
The positions held by each of the members of the Supervisory Board in companies within and outside the Group are indicated below:
As at 31 December 2013, he did not hold any positions in other companies within the Teixeira Duarte Group.
On this date, in the capacity of representative of "Moore Stephens & Associados, SROC, S.A.", he performed the duties of Statutory Auditor at various companies and institutions which are not part of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
As at 31 December 2013, he did not perform duties in any other companies.
As at 31 December 2013, he did not perform duties in any other companies.
As at 31 December 2013, he did not hold any positions in other companies within the Teixeira Duarte Group.
On this date, he held the following positions in other companies and institutions which are not part of the Teixeira Duarte Group:
Managing partner of "Camacho Palma & Lisboa Afonso - SROC";
Manager of "NEXIA, CPLA & Associados - SROC, Lda.";
Chairman of the Audit Committee of "Banco Espírito Santo, S.A.";
Chairman of the Supervisory Board of "PARTRAN - SGPS, S.A.";
Member of the Supervisory Board of "SOMINCOR - Sociedade Mineira de Neves-Corvo, S.A.".
No services are contracted from the external auditor other than those related to the legal review of accounts and auditing, hence the present regulation is not applicable to TD,SA.
The supervisory bodies do not perform any duties other than those described above and legally defined.
The position of chartered accountant is held by "Mariquito, Correia & Associados - SROC", represented by Mr. António Francisco Escarameia Mariquito.
The chartered accountant was appointed for the first time at the time of the incorporation of the company on 30 November 2009, having been re-elected to hold the same position during the four-year period of 2011/2014 at the General Meeting of 20 May 2011.
The chartered accountant does not provide any services other than those related to the legal review of accounts and audit of TD,SA.
The appointed external auditor, under the terms of article 8 of the Securities Market Code, is the chartered accountants firm "Mariquito, Correia & Associados - SROC", represented by its partner, Mr. António Francisco Escarameia Mariquito, registered at the CMVM under number 2.235.
The external auditor and respective chartered accountant partner who represents it in compliance with these duties, has performed duties at TD,SA since its incorporation on 30 November 2009, in other words, for 4 years.
However, it is disclosed that both the SROC (chartered accountants firm) and respective partner referred to above have performed duties at other companies of the Teixeira Duarte Group for 26 years.
There is no defined policy on the rotation of the external auditor and respective chartered accountant partner who represents it in compliance with these duties.
However, it should be further noted that the issue established in Recommendation number IV.3, companies should promote the rotation of the auditor at the end of two or three terms of office, according to whether they are four or three years respectively, is not relevant in this case since the auditor is performing its second term of office in this position.
The action of the External Auditor has been assessed by all the Supervisory Board and all other governing bodies of TD,SA, and there have never been any circumstances that could justify his dismissal or the termination of the contract for the provision of his services on fair grounds.
On this issue, it should be noted that the Board of Directors of TD,SA and the services under this board have undertaken the commitment to assure the existence of appropriate conditions for the provision of services by the external auditor within the Company, since the Board of Directors and its services are placed directly within the operating structure of TD,SA, and ensure that they have the necessary physical means, information and documentation in order to provide the external auditor with the appropriate conditions for the performance of its duties.
The Company's agent of communication and first receiver of the external auditor's reports is the Board of Directors, since, as has been described above, this is the body which is placed directly within the company's operating structure, facilitating the communication and disclosure of information between the different bodies and entities, where under no circumstances has the independence of the auditor ever been hindered.
These procedures are, however, adjusted and coordinated with the Supervisory Board which, notwithstanding this, also receives, from the external auditor and its team, all the information and details deemed necessary to perform their duties.
The remuneration of the external auditor is established by the Company's Remuneration Committee, under the terms stipulated in the Article of Association, as is the case for all the other governing bodies, and up to this date, no grounds have been found to suggest the interference of the Supervisory Board in this matter.
This model, implemented some years ago under the Teixeira Duarte Group, has proved to be appropriate to the good operation of the governing bodies and guaranteed transparency.
It is disclosed that neither the External Auditor, nor any other entities in a holding relationship or which are part of the same network, provide TD,SA with any services other than audit services.
47. Indication of the value of the annual remuneration paid by the company and/or legal persons in a controlling or
group relationship with the auditor and other natural or legal persons belonging to the same network, and details of the percentage relative to the following services (for the effect of this information, the concept of network is as defined in European Commission Recommendation number C (2002) 1873, of 16 May).
The retribution paid by the company and/or legal persons in a controlling or group relationship with the auditor and other natural or legal persons belonging to the same network determined in accordance with the volume and quality of the services provided in the context of the duties entrusted under the terms of the Law and Articles of Association.

There are no specific rules for any amendments of the Articles of Association, with the general rules established in the Commercial Companies Code being applicable, in particular the provisions in articles 85, 383, number 2 and 386.
Regarding the policy of communication of irregularities which have allegedly occurred, the Company encourages its employees to provide information, through the means they deem convenient (direct contact, written document, email or telephone) to the respective hierarchies of any detected irregularities. The persons with legitimacy to receive these communications are the respective hierarchical senior staff.
Whenever deemed appropriate to the correct establishment of the facts and responsibilities inherent to their practice, the corresponding proceedings or enquiries are initiated, also safeguarding the necessary confidentiality of the communication when requested by the declarant or deemed convenient by the receiver, without prejudice to this not being followed if the persecution is revealed to be of no value to the organisation.
The proceedings are monitored by the person responsible for the department where the alleged irregularity has occurred, using people who
are not involved in the situation in question and, if deemed appropriate, followed by lawyers and the Central Department for Human Resources and Administrative Services.
The proceedings are subject to the decision of the hierarchies involved, which shall be reported to the Board of Directors and any other entities to which it is mandatory that this communication must be made.
In addition to the aforesaid rules and especially from the point of view of the other stakeholders, an Investor Support Office is also available for the reporting of any possible irregularities, and likewise the Company's supervisory bodies, that is, the Supervisory Board and the Chartered Accountants Firm.
Furthermore, a new vehicle for the communication of irregularities directly to the Supervisory Board was established in 2014, via the creation of the email address [email protected], through which employees (especially using the corporate portal) and shareholders (the same is provided for this purpose on TD,SA's official website www.teixeiraduarte.pt) may send reports on any irregularities.
The Internal Audit Services of the Teixeira Duarte Group have progressively played a fundamental role regarding the implementation of internal control systems.
As at 31 December 2013, these services were assured by 6 employees, under the hierarchical and operational dependence of Director Mr. Manuel Maria Calainho de Azevedo Teixeira Duarte.
On this issue, particular note should be made of the relevant contribution provided by the corporate services of Consolidation of Accounts and Corporate secretarial services in the process of reporting and disclosure of financial information.
As indicated above, as at 31 December 2013, the internal audit services were under the hierarchical and operational dependence of Director Mr. Manuel Maria Calainho de Azevedo Teixeira Duarte, who was not considered independent under the applicable rules and regulations.
Nevertheless, it is considered that this Director is not under any circumstances capable of affecting his impartiality in analysis and decisionmaking.
It should be added that, since its creation within the internal organisation of the Teixeira Duarte Group, the Internal Audit Department has not only always been under the hierarchical dependence of the Board of Directors, but has always reported functionally to the Director responsible for the financial area. This model has proved to be appropriate, since this not only facilitates the communication, collaboration and exchange of information between the said Departments within the company's organisational structure, and the Director responsible for the area, but also, it should be stressed, has ensured that none of their impartiality has ever been placed in question.
It is, therefore, in this context that we disclose that it is the Board of Directors which issues opinions on all the work plans and resources allocated to the Internal Audit Service and receives all the reports produced by this service, even when unrelated to matters concerning the presentation of accounts, the identification or settlement of conflicts of interests and the detection of potential illegalities.
Regarding the Company's internal control and risk management systems, the Board of Directors is responsible, in the first place, for knowing and assessing the most important risks faced by the Company, as well as for the promotion of the necessary initiatives for their respective prevention.
In this context, the Board of Directors is responsible for designing and planning the internal control and risk management systems which prove necessary and appropriate for the different situations which are identified, as well as monitoring their respective implementation, supervising and assessing their operation.
Furthermore, the Board of Directors is also responsible - rather than the supervisory bodies - for the assessment of the operation of these systems and for proposing their respective adjustment to the needs of TD,SA, since this matter which, due both to its nature and particularities described above, falls under the specific scope of action of the Board of Directors and under the control and supervision of this board of the different Departments of the Company, a system that has proved suitable for its respective purposes.
This reality is, however, followed closely by the members of the supervisory bodies which, in addition to the regular monitoring of the Group's activity, are represented at the monthly meetings held by the Board of Directors where a vast series of elements are provided of different nature with reporting information and forecasts on the Group's action in its different markets and sectors.
There are no other areas with exclusive competence concerning risk control, since, in view of the model enforced within the Group on this matter, all the areas have their respective share of responsibility under the terms described above.
The main economic, financial and legal risks to which the company is exposed during the exercise of its activity are as follows:
Furthermore, the activity of the Teixeira Duarte Group is dependent on the economic environment and on the consequences which certain macroeconomic situations might have on the levels of confidence of the different economic agents, on investment volumes, exports and global trade, as well as well as on employment levels and consumption patterns.
The evolution of the activity areas in which the Group operates, namely the construction area, but also, for example, the real estate, hotel and energy areas, is historically correlated, more or less directly, with the macroeconomic performance of the countries or markets in which the Teixeira Duarte Group operates, in particular, with the evolution of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Therefore, the Group's activity and its results may be significantly affected by the performance of the economies where the Teixeira Duarte Group operates, mainly through the effect of the growth or retraction of the construction market, the most representative business area in the Group's operating income (50.5% in 2013).
Considering that construction activity is the core business of the Teixeira Duarte Group, in particular in the sub-branches of Geotechnics and Rehabilitation, Buildings, Infrastructures, Mechanical Engineering, Underground, Railway and Maritime Works, the main risks inherent to this business are described below:
Large-scale construction business involves a major allocation of human and material resources, which implies a high fixed cost structure not only due to the necessary need to invest in the teams and their training, but also the significant investment required in the acquisition, maintenance and adaptation of equipment.
The costs associated to many of the tenders, both in the preparation of proposals and in the insurance, guarantees and completion bonds which are sometimes necessary to provide, also constitute another risk factor inherent to the activity, especially taking into account the penalties very often related to the large public contract works in which the Teixeira Duarte Group participates.
Moreover, the retraction of public investment, as well as private investment to a lesser extent, has affected revenue, which is also sometimes penalised by the deadlines and delays in payments.
On the other hand, the nature of the service provided often implies alterations of the circumstances that were initially negotiated, as a result of the vicissitudes of the contract work in question (climate change; discovery of adverse and unexpected characteristics; natural, social and economic phenomena arising from the impact of the work) and alterations of projects, very often due to new choices by the owner of the work which calls for great flexibility in the efficiency of their execution.
Yet another important aspect arises from the significant number of suppliers of goods and equipment and service providers with which the Company deals in this area of action and which might imply risks due to actions or omissions imputable to them, including interruptions or delays in the service or supply of goods.
From a commercial point of view, globalisation has enabled the entry of other major Construction Groups in the main and oldest markets of action of the Teixeira Duarte Group - especially Portugal and Angola - forcing greater effort in the presentation of solutions and proposals, as well as the optimisation of costs to enable meeting the competitive strength of these entities.
Concessions are normally long term projects which involve increasingly more areas, such as those linked to planning, design, construction, financing and operation and, which, both due to their complexity and need for partners and the longevity of the processes, imply heavy risk in the evaluation of assets and projects in the long term, in an increasingly more dynamic world characterised by unexpected changes.
The Real Estate sector was at the origin and core of the sub-prime crisis and the reflections of this international situation are still experienced in Portugal, where the requirements for new projects have increased at all levels (administrative, economic, social, environmental, amongst others), and the increasingly greater evidence of excess supply has led to price decreases and demand is greatly affected by the increasing restrictions to credit.
The Hotel Services sector in the Algarve has been heavily hit by the new destinations which are now accessible and changes of routes of the major international agencies, where the hotels in Africa are naturally exposed to the idiosyncrasies of the respective countries and the increasing competition, at an unprecedented scale. Moreover, and in view of the levels of indebtedness of some of the subsidiary companies operating in this sector, the net income and, consequently, the net worth of these companies may suffer adverse impacts as a result of unfavourable evolutions in interest rates.
Distribution in Angola is very exposed due to the specific circumstances of the country and logistic difficulties related to supply, transport and travel.
The Automobile area operates in a very saturated market, where at an international level major players have entered bankruptcy and were strongly affected, with inevitable consequences at a global level and which had already led the Teixeira Duarte Group to dispose of the activity developed in this area in Portugal.
In Angola, competitiveness is becoming much heavier and the investment made by the Group implies strong optimisation of processes and costs, in a market which is increasingly more expensive and difficult.
In the Energy sector of the Teixeira Duarte Group, the risks are restricted to the national market, concentrated around three aspects: (i) the minor market share in the area of liquid fuel; (ii) the fact that the main suppliers are simultaneously the main competition, with major market shares; and (iii) the delicate management of the credit granted to re-distributors, namely through the consignment of delivered products.
Regarding the financial holdings, in particular the stake held in Banco Comercial Português, S.A., the risk arises from the current fragility of the financial markets and possible impact of the volatility of the respective stock market prices on the accounts of the Teixeira Duarte Group, which might even, under certain circumstances, affect net income.
The risks described above, should they occur, could have a negative impact on the net income of the Teixeira Duarte Group and its financial situation.
TD,SA is exposed to strategy risks, through the possibility of taking inadequate strategic decisions, failures in the implementation of decisions or lack of response capacity regarding changing market conditions.
The international business of the Teixeira Duarte Group represents a significant portion of the Group's total turnover (81.2% in 2013). It is impossible to guarantee the full success of operations on the foreign markets in which the Group operates. Moreover, these operations are exposed to foreign exchange risks arising from possible adverse economic developments in the countries where they are established. These factors could adversely affect the activity, financial situation and net income of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
The Teixeira Duarte Group operates in various activity sectors, in particular, due to its contribution to the Group's operating income, the Construction sector, but also in others such as Distribution, Energy and Automobile. The sectors referred to above represent 34.5% of the Group's operating income and are highly competitive sectors. This competition environment, when associated to negative cycles in the activity areas in which the Group operates, may have a negative impact on the Company's marketing margins and on its net income and, consequently, on its financial situation.
The capacity of the Teixeira Duarte Group to successfully implement its strategy depends on its ability to recruit and retain qualified and competent employees for each position. Although the human resources policy of the Teixeira Duarte Group is directed towards the achievement of these objectives, it is impossible to guarantee that, in the future, there will be no limitations in this area. Such circumstances could obstruct or delay the execution of the defined strategy, which could have a negative effect on the Group's activity, financial situation, and net income.
The deterioration of global economic conditions or adversities that affect the economies at a local scale could result in the inability of the Group's customers to meet their obligations or significantly delay their payment, leading to the existing credit lines entering into a situation of default. This scenario would result in losses affecting the activity, financial situation and net income of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
The Teixeira Duarte Group might, in the future, be part of a number of disputes related to its activity, including those where the sentence has been favourable, totally or partially, and which might be subject to appeal or action for annulment by the counterparts under the terms of the applicable procedural rules and until the reading of the final judgement on these same sentences. The Teixeira Duarte Group cannot guarantee that it will win any lawsuits relative to its activities and a negative decision in this area might have an adverse effect of significance to the activity, financial situation and net income of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
The activities of TD,SA require investments. The Group finances part of these investments through the cash flow generated by its operating activities. However, TD,SA and its subsidiaries finance most of their investments through external sources, including bank loans and offers in capital markets.
The Teixeira Duarte Group is exposed to a series of risks, such as liquidity risks, interest rate risks and exchange rate risks, amongst others, and in the event of exceptionally adverse scenarios, the policies and procedures used by TD,SA to identify, monitor and manage risks might not prove to be totally effective.
As is the case of any other economic group integrated in a competitive environment, the Teixeira Duarte Group is also subject to risks related to liquidity. The Group believes that it is suitably equipped with the necessary means to exercise effective control of the risks of its activity, that the action developed by the management is effective, based on information provided by the Consolidation of Accounts and Internal Audit Services and by the Central Department for Finance and Accounting which, under the direct supervision of a Director responsible for this area, is specially committed to controlling the liquidity of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
TD,SA manages the Group's liquidity risk in two ways: ensuring that the Group's financial debt has a high component of medium and long term maturities suitable to the expected capacity of generation of funds and the use of credit facilities, available in various cases in the form of current account credit lines.
During its normal business, the Group is subject to certain operating risks, including interruption or delays in the provision of services, frauds, omissions, errors and delays in the implementation of requirements for risk management. These risks are monitored by the Group in an ongoing manner through administrative and information systems, amongst others, with some of the operating risks being covered by insurance policies.
The operations developed by the Teixeira Duarte Group are dependent on computer processing. The computer processing involves the maintenance of records, financial reporting and other systems, including systems for the monitoring and control of the different operations of the Group, in particular in human resources management, accounts, logistics, administration and storage. Notwithstanding the assessment which has been made of the computer systems and the belief that their capacities are appropriate, it is impossible to guarantee potential investors that all the problems related to the information technology systems will be fully identified and corrected in due time, nor systematic success in the implementation of technological improvements.
The cost of the vast majority of the financial debt incurred by the Teixeira Duarte Group is indexed to variable reference rates, whereby TD,SA is, through this means, exposed to interest rate risk.
However, in order to manage these variations, the financial area of the Teixeira Duarte Group permanently follows market development, and is able to use financial instruments to mitigate the effects of interest rate volatility. These instruments are contracted by considering the risks affecting the assets and liabilities and after checking which instruments available on the market are the most appropriate to cover these risks. These operations are permanently monitored, particularly through the analysis of various indicators regarding these instruments, in particular the evolution of their market value and sensitivity of forecast cash flows and of the actual market value to changes in key variables that condition the structures, for the purpose of evaluating their financial effects. Derivative financial instruments are recorded in accordance with the provisions of IAS 39 and measured at fair value, which is based on assessments made by financial institutions. These are qualified as hedge instruments or instruments held for trading, in compliance with the provisions of IAS 39.
The variation of the exchange rate of the Euro relative to other currencies, in particular the US Dollar, Angolan Kwanza, Algerian Dinar, Brazilian Real, Mozambican Metical and Venezuelan Bolivar might have an impact on the financial situation of TD,SA. The Teixeira Duarte Group operates in various markets, records revenue in foreign currency and has monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Euro and, therefore, in this way, is exposed to variations in the respective currencies.
In indirect terms, note should also be made of the fact that the Teixeira Duarte Group acquires a variety of materials, of special importance in the construction, distribution and automobile areas in currencies other than those in which the final products are subsequently sold, namely in Angola, which could partially influence the net income achieved by the Group in the activity developed in these sectors.
Particular note should be made of the import and export of materials for construction and products which are essentially consumables to the companies established under Angolan law which operate in the area of distribution, as well as automobile vehicles, spare parts and equipment for the different local participated companies in the automobile sector in Angola, involving, amongst others, the brands Nissan, Honda, Chevrolet, Renault, Peugeot, JMC, Mahindra and SsangYong.
Adverse variations in the price of oil and other commodities might also significantly affect the net income and financial situation of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
The volatility of the price of commodities constitutes a risk for the Teixeira Duarte Group, affecting the operating activity of the construction business area, although this is on occasions mitigated through supplier contracts with fixed prices and customer contrasts which enable reflecting these alterations in the prices paid by these customers.
In particular, the Teixeira Duarte Group is indirectly exposed to the price of oil. The Group's capacity to reflect increases in the price of oil in the prices of its final products and services is minor, therefore, negative consequences might arise in the direct margins of the final products sold and in the net contribution of the services rendered. Furthermore, an increase in the price of oil has a direct impact on the transport costs associated to the development of the Group's activity, therefore, adverse variations in the price of oil could have a negative material impact on the Group's activity, financial situation and net income.
More specifically, the evolution in the price of oil could significantly affect the net income of the Teixeira Duarte Group for three reasons:
Any increase in taxes or reduction in tax benefits could have an adverse effect on the activity of the Teixeira Duarte Group.
The Teixeira Duarte Group could be affected by changes in the legislation and other tax regulations applicable in Portugal, in the European Union and in the different countries in which the Group operates.
The financial statements of the Teixeira Duarte Group might be influenced by the change in value of the financial stakes held.
The net worth, equity and even, in certain situations the impairment, net income of the Teixeira Duarte Group might be influenced by the change in value of the financial stakes owned, which, in the case of the holdings in companies listed for trading on regulated markets, depends directly on the stock market prices of the respective shares.
The entities of the Teixeira Duarte Group are subject to the risks inherent to any economic activity, which is the case of accidents, breakdowns or natural catastrophes that might lead to losses in the Group's assets or temporary interruptions in the respective activity. Likewise, these risks might affect the main customers and suppliers of the Teixeira Duarte Group, which would have a significant impact on profitability where it is not possible to find replacement customers in order to guarantee the turnover level or suppliers to enable maintaining the same cost structure.
The procedures implemented in terms of internal control and management of risks are characterised by promoting the autonomy of the Company's senior staff in the management and monitoring of matters, instilling an attitude of responsibility and strong stimulus to entrepreneurial behaviour.
This consistent relationship between autonomy and responsibility imposes, in a realistic manner, careful and strict compliance with the tasks allocated to each employee, thus representing, in itself, a solid, sustained and effective risk control system that delivers practical results considered satisfactory.
The importance of weighing the cost of control in relation to the matters that are to be controlled is always taken into account. The assessment of the Company, of the way it is managed, of the composition of its staff and managers of the companies included in the Teixeira Duarte Group and of the fundamental principles and concepts that are applied, leads to the conclusion that the efficiency and control costs related to the creation of any control committees would greatly outweigh the costs of the matters to be controlled. The mere creation of committees for the effect, from a formal point of view, would eventually imply more bureaucratic obstacles that would not be reflected in their practical implementation.
Although the internal control and risk management system implemented in the Company does not fully comply with the requirements listed in Recommendation II.1.5, TD,SA remains firmly convinced of its choice for the model described above, because it believes that the basic assumptions of this recommendation are inappropriate for the regular operation of the Company, and may even create various obstacles from the merely formal and bureaucratic point of view that are incompatible with the execution of the procedures which have already been implemented and with the accountability of the Group's organisational structures.
The process of disclosure of financial information is coordinated by the Board of Directors and always monitored by the Supervisory Bodies. The teams of the Consolidation of Accounts and Corporate Secretarial Services contribute to this process, respectively, in the preparation and recording of the accounts and other accounting and financial reporting and in the preparation and disclosure of the final document.
Both the aforesaid Services closely follow the evolution of the applicable rules and regulations, both in the financial and legal areas, and
interact with the Securities Market Commission to ensure updated supplementary information and regulations on these matters and report directly to the Board of Directors.
All the employees of the Consolidation of Accounts Services and those who, in the Corporate Secretarial Services, participate in the preparation and disclosure of the final document are included in the list established in article 248 of the Securities Market Code, as employees with access to privileged information, with all being notified by letter delivered by hand of their inclusion in this list and the legal consequences arising from the disclosure or abusive use of privileged information.
In order to reinforce the policy of disclosure of information referred to above, and in order to foster permanent contact with the market and the response to requests made by investors in due time, assuring strict compliance with the principle of equality among shareholders and for the purpose of preventing any asymmetries in access to information on the part of investors, the Company has an Investor Support Office, which operates directly under Mr. Manuel Maria Calainho de Azevedo Teixeira Duarte, Director with this area of responsibility, coordinated by Mr. José Pedro Poiares Cobra Ferreira, Representative for Market Relations, duly registered at the CMVM.
All the information required by investors and available under the rules, regulations and other applicable directives is provided by this Office and may be accessed through the following means of communication:

The Investor Support Office also assures the maintenance of a record of the requests submitted by the different stakeholders and their subsequent treatment.

Pursuant to article 11 of the Articles of Association of TD,SA and under the terms established in the Policy of Remuneration of the Management and Supervisory Bodies of the Company, the Remuneration Commission is competent to determine the remuneration of the governing bodies.
It should also be noted, as has already been clarified, there is no executive committee or chief executive officer, hence, in this regard, this issue is not applicable to TD,SA.
However, and based on the criteria established in article 248-B, number 3 of the Securities Market Code, the only senior managers of TD,SA who are not part of their Board of Directors are members of the Board of Directors of its subsidiary company "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A.", where, as also established in the aforesaid Policy of Remuneration of the Management and Supervisory Bodies of TD,SA, the determination of these senior managers is entrusted to the Remuneration Committee of "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A.", which is composed of precisely the same members as those of the Remuneration Committee of TD,SA.
Currently, the Remuneration Committee is composed of the following persons, elected at the General Meeting of 20 May 2011, to perform duties during the term of office of 2011/2014:
Mr. Pedro Maria Calainho Teixeira Duarte
Mr. António Carlos Calainho de Azevedo Teixeira Duarte
Mr. Maria da Conceição Maia Teixeira Duarte
Mr. Pedro Maria Calainho Teixeira Duarte is not considered independent in relation to the members of the Board of Directors, since he is also the Chairman of this management body.
Since TD,SA is controlled by companies held by members of the Teixeira Duarte family, it is natural that they are part of the Remuneration Committee. Traditionally and during decades, this has been the practice and always in conformity with the current rules and recommendations on the remuneration of the members of the Management Board established by the CMVM, hence there are no reasons to change this.
It is important to stress that this is a Company which, following the example of the Group's former holding company (Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A.), with its own specific way of acting and its distinctive business image, has adopted a very particular way of being and a healthy management policy which has been recognised as such by the public and market.
Furthermore, no natural or legal persons were contracted for the Remuneration Committee or to support the Remuneration Committee in the performance of its duties.
Moreover, we disclose that the External Auditor, under its competence, is responsible for verifying the application of the policies and systems of remuneration of the governing bodies.
Mr. Pedro Maria Calainho Teixeira Duarte and Mr. António Carlos Calainho de Azevedo Teixeira Duarte have knowledge and experience on matters of remuneration policy, taking into account that they performed these duties for several years in other companies.
The Remuneration Committee of TD,SA issued the respective remuneration policy statement relative to the members of the Management and Supervisory Bodies, which was approved unanimously at the General Meeting of this company, held on 25 May 2013, where the contents of this statement are reproduced below:
Pursuant to the provisions in Law number 28/2009, of 19 June, this Committee is responsible for the annual submission, for the approval of the General Meeting, of a statement on remuneration policy of the members of the management and supervisory bodies of this Company, which should take into consideration, in addition to this diploma, the combined provisions of articles 399 of the Commercial Companies Code and 248- B of the Securities Market Code, as well as the Recommendations of the Securities Market Commission on the Governance of Listed Companies (2010).
Pursuant to the adopted corporate model, the Management and Supervisory bodies of "Teixeira Duarte, S.A." are the Board of Directors, the Supervisory Board and the Chartered Accountants Firm.
Based on the statement submitted by the Board of Directors for this effect, the only employees who, while not being members of the management and supervisory bodies of "Teixeira Duarte, S.A.", have regular access to privileged information and participate in decisions on management and negotiation strategy are the members of the Board of Directors of the 100% controlled company "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A.", in other words, Mr. Jorge Ricardo de Figueiredo Catarino, Mr. João José de Gouveia Capelão and Mr. João José do Carmo Delgado.
Hence, the present statement covers the members of the Management and Supervisory bodies of "Teixeira Duarte, S.A." as well as these three directors, who are included pursuant to number 3 of article 248-B of the Securities Market Code.
Since, under a corporate restructuring process of the Teixeira Duarte Group, in 2010, "Teixeira Duarte, S.A." succeeded "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A." as the Group's leading company, the definition of this Remuneration Policy takes into account the historical reality and context of the subject experienced in relation to this latter company over the years. No remunerative policy or practice of other groups of companies is taken as a comparative element for the establishment of remuneration.
Regarding the Board of Directors, the Remuneration Committee should determine the values of the fixed and variable component of their remunerations in accordance with guidelines that link them to the performance and results of the Company as a whole, as well as the overall activity of the management board, relative to the defined objectives, taking into account the conditions and amounts of the remunerations of the other employees of the company 100% held by it, "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A.".
The remuneration policy and its implementation under the terms described herein should take into account the company's long term performance, compliance with the rules applicable to the company's activity, restraint in excessive risk-taking and market knowledge.
The variable amount should be established for each member of the Board of Directors as supplementary remuneration and performance bonus, where this component is totally unrelated to the evolution of the stock market price of the Company's shares, but rather depends on the evolution of corporate business, financial indicators such as net indebtedness and financial autonomy, dedication by each member to the achievement of the tasks and objectives inherent to their respective duties, as well as the net income for the year and corresponding policy on its appropriation, which has progressively favoured the reinforcement of the Company's equity and ensuring the continued and balanced distribution of dividends to shareholders.
No Director is entitled to any right to the variable component of his remuneration until its specific attribution by this Remuneration Committee. Likewise, there is no provision stipulating the possibility of the payment of the variable component taking place, totally or partially, after the calculation of the accounts for the years corresponding to the entire term of office. Furthermore, there are no mechanisms limiting the variable remuneration, in the event of the net income showing a considerable deterioration in the company's performance in the last reported year or when such is expected for the year in progress.
However, the Committee should consider whether a significant part of the variable remuneration should be deferred for a period not less than three years, and if its payment should be subject to the continued positive performance of the company over this period, where this is defined as the occurrence of at least one of the following facts:
Increased equity;
Average EBITDA for 2013 to 2015 above the EBITDA recorded for 2012;
Average Consolidated Net Income for 2013 to 2015 above the Consolidated net income for 2012.
There will be no system for the attribution of shares or rights to acquire options on shares or any other share incentive scheme.
For the overall remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors, no sum will be paid in the form of profit-sharing.
The Directors of "Teixeira Duarte, S.A." should not receive any remuneration, of any nature, paid by companies that are in a controlling or group relationship with it.
There should not be any other relevant non-cash benefits, apart from those established by this Committee.
The members of the Board of Directors shall be paid daily allowances under the terms and of the amounts determined for all the other employees of "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A.", namely for deployment under work for the Company.
No sums have been paid, and nor are any payments foreseen, relative to the dismissal or termination of office through agreement of Directors.
V. SUPERVISORY BOARD:
All the members of the Supervisory Board should, pursuant to the current system established in the Commercial Companies Code, receive a fixed remuneration for the performance of the duties inherent to their respective positions, determined by this Remuneration Committee, where none of these members should receive any other retribution from "Teixeira Duarte, S.A." or other company with which it was in a controlling or group relationship, in particular for any other services provided to these entities.
Likewise, and as referred to above on the Management Board, there should not be any scheme for the attribution of shares and/or rights to acquire options on shares and/or any other share incentive scheme, nor any sum paid under the form of profit-sharing, nor any other relevant non-cash benefits.
The remuneration of the Chartered Accountants Firm should be determined in accordance with the volume and quality of the services provided in the context of the duties entrusted under the terms of the Law and Articles of Association.
In the case of "Teixeira Duarte, S.A.", this supervisory body is responsible for conducting all the examinations and verification required for the review and legal certification of the Company's accounts, for which an amount should be established in the form of an annual overall value to be paid under the terms and within the periods of time defined with the Board of Directors, according to its sensitivity and monitoring of the business and activity of this Supervisory Body.
It should be noted in particular that this same Chartered Accountants Firm also provides legal review of accounts and auditing services, exclusively of the same nature, to other entities included in the Teixeira Duarte Group, receiving the corresponding retributions from these companies, whose overall value shall be disclosed under the terms of the Law, especially through the publication of the Corporate Governance Report.
Since the Supervisory Board has played an increasingly more active role in monitoring the work of the Chartered Accountants Firm, this board should be consulted in order to issue an opinion on the establishment of the remunerations of this firm.
The three directors included under this regulation are members of the Board of Directors of the participated company "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A.", whose elected Remuneration Committee is composed precisely of these same members as those of "Teixeira Duarte, S.A.".
The rules and guidelines defined above for the members of the Board of Directors of "Teixeira Duarte, S.A." are also applicable to all of these three directors, although their remunerations, fixed and variable, are paid by "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A.".
Therefore, it shall be based on the remuneration policy presented above that this Committee should, specifically, establish the exact values of the remunerations of the members of the indicated management and supervisory bodies of the company, in accordance with the personal opinion of their members, expressed in a deliberation drawn up in minutes and whose content is then communicated to the Board of Directors for implementation, under the strict terms defined therein.
These amounts shall be disclosed annually whenever so required by the law, especially in the Corporate Governance Reports.
To conclude, it is emphasised that many of the aspects established above seek to comply with the regulations mentioned at the beginning, and may be altered in accordance with any changes that these rules might undergo."
In addition to the obligations inherent to the performance of the actual duties, the remuneration of the Directors also, complimentarily, acts to meet the alignment of their interests with those of the Company. Indeed, the remuneration is determined by this Committee elected at the General Meeting, which establishes these values in accordance with guidelines related to the performance and results of the Company as a whole, as well as the overall activity of the management board, relative to the defined objectives, taking into account the conditions and amounts of the remunerations of the other employees of the company 100% held by it, Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A.
The establishment of remunerations also takes into account the company's long term performance, compliance with the rules applicable to the company's activity, restraint in excessive risk-taking and market knowledge.
The remuneration of the Directors includes a variable component, which is unrelated to the evolution of the stock market prices of the Company's shares, but rather depends on the evolution of corporate business, financial indicators such as net debt and financial autonomy, the dedication shown by each member in the accomplishment of the tasks and objectives inherent to their duties, as well as the net income for the year and the corresponding policy of its appropriation, which has also always prioritised the reinforcement of the Company's equity and assurance of the continued and balanced distribution of dividends to shareholders.
Accordingly, there is no maximum ceiling for each component, but rather an attribution in conformity with the parameters identified above, the remuneration policy defined for the Company, and the assessment of the performance and execution of duties of each individual Director.
Although part of the variable component attributed by the Remuneration Committee may be deferred over time, it is important to note that no Director is entitled to any right to the variable component of his remuneration until a specific allocation has been made by the Remuneration Committee, under the terms and on the grounds established by this committee.
Pursuant to Recommendation number III.5, we disclose that the members of the management body did not enter into contracts, either with the company or third parties, which have the effect of mitigating the risk inherent to the variability of their remuneration established by the company.
Part of the payments of the sums of the variable component were deferred to 2016 and depend on the continued positive performance of the Company over the financial years of 2013 to 2016.
It should be noted that the payment of the variable component of the remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors has been intrinsically dependent on the net income for the year and development of corporate business. In this regard, it should be recalled that the Directors of TD,SA have been "in-house people" for dozens of years, and that their remunerations are placed in the context of a general plan covering all the employees. They are neither managers who have come from other companies or groups, nor do they represent personal interests of shareholders.
Not applicable. The variable retribution is not attributed in shares and no contracts have been concluded with the characteristics described above.
Not applicable. The variable retribution is not attributed through options.
The Remuneration Committee takes into consideration, in the attribution of annual bonuses, the performance and net income of the Company as a whole, as well as the overall activity of the management board, in view of the defined objectives, taking into account the conditions and values of the remunerations of the other employees of the company 100% held by it, Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A.
The annual bonuses were established taking into account the Company's long term performance, compliance with the rules applicable to the company's activity, restraint in excessive risk-taking and market knowledge, as already indicated above.
Furthermore, no relevant non-cash benefits were attributed to the Directors of the Company.
Regarding any retired former Directors, it should be mentioned that the Remuneration Committee is responsible for establishing all the amounts paid in this context, under all circumstances.
As to the attribution of supplementary pension schemes, the actual Articles of Association establish, in article 22, transcribed below, the terms and criteria on which the Remuneration Committee should base the establishment of such amounts:
ONE - When people who have performed duties as Directors cease to hold office, the Company may grant them a retirement pension for life, whenever they meet one of the following requirements:
TWO - The value of this pension will be determined taking into consideration the time or relevance of the services provided and the situation of the beneficiary, and should be reviewed on an annual basis but can never be greater than the highest remuneration received any given time by the permanent Directors.
THREE - Through delegation of the General Meeting, hereby established, the Remuneration Committee referred to in Article Eleven will be responsible for the assessment of the cases submitted to it and establishing the values and other procedures for the award of pensions.
The General Meeting reserves the right to appoint the members of the Remuneration Committee which is exclusively competent to decide on these matters.
The determination of the Memorandum and Articles of Association referred to above does not invalidate that the Remuneration Committee may submit such a matter to the General Meeting, however,this has actually never taken place because this has never proved necessary or appropriate in view of the established statutory rule.
For all due purposes, it is disclosed that, since the incorporation of the company in 2009, up to this date, no retirement benefit schemes established in favour of the members governing bodies have been approved at the General Meeting. Likewise, neither has any specific benefit been attributed, namely by the Remuneration Committee, for any termination of duties, in particular due to retirement.
77. Indication of the annual value of the remuneration received, as a whole and individually, by the members of the management bodies, derived from the company, including fixed and variable remuneration and, relative to the latter, reference to its different components.
During 2013, the remunerations, in a broad sense, received individually by the members of the Board of Directors, were as follows:

(a) Payment of Bonuses was 560,000.00 euros, with the remaining 107,918.65 euros corresponding to compensation for deployment.
(b) Mr. Jorge Ricardo de Figueiredo Catarino was elected to the position of Director of TD,SA on 25 May 2013. Up until then, his remuneration was paid by the 100% subsidiary Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A. and corresponded to the total amount of 149,690.00 euros in 2013: 49,000.00 euros as fixed remuneration and 100,690.00 euros as variable remuneration (including a sum for compensation for deployment).
During 2013, no pension rights were acquired.
Regarding the variable component of the remuneration, it should be noted that the total amount attributed to each member of the Board of
Directors included the sum indicated above in the preceding table increased by the amounts indicated in the following table, whose payments were deferred to 2016, depending on the continued positive performance of the Company over the financial years of 2013 to 2016:
| Variable Remuneration (Bonuses) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Board of Directors | Paid 2013 | Deferred | Total | |

| Mr. Diogo Bebiano Branco de Sá Viana Rebelo | 90,000.00 | 95,000.00 | 185,000.00 | |
| Mr. Jorge Ricardo Figueiredo Catarino (a) | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.00 | |
| 560,000.00 | 587,000.00 | 1,147,000.00 |
(a) Mr. Jorge Ricardo de Figueiredo Catarino was elected to the position of Director of TD,SA on 25 May 2013. Up until then, his remuneration was paid by the 100% subsidiary Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A., which also paid the variable remuneration, of the value of 85,000.00 euros, with the payment of 87,000 euros having been deferred over time.
In 2013, the total value of the variable remunerations paid by TD,SA represented 46.2% of the total value received.
During 2013, the members of the Board of Directors did not receive any remuneration, of any nature, paid by other companies that are in a controlling or group relationship with TD,SA.
In the overall remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors, no sum is paid in the form of profit-sharing.
Indeed, the members of the Board of Directors are paid a sum as a performance bonus and distribution of profit, as deliberated by the Remuneration Committee.
As clarified above, the establishment of the bonuses was the result of the performance and net income of the Company as a whole, as well as the overall activity of the management board, in view of the defined objectives, having taken into account the conditions and values of the remunerations of the other employees of the company 100% held by it, Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A.
The establishment of the bonuses also took into account the Company's long term performance, compliance with the rules applicable to the company's activity, restraint in excessive risk-taking and market knowledge.
No compensation has been paid, or is owed, to any former executive Directors relative to their termination of office during the financial year. Furthermore, it should be noted that no Director terminated office during 2013.
All the members of the Supervisory Board receive, under the current system established in the Commercial Companies Code, and as determined by the Remuneration Committee, fixed remunerations for the performance of the duties inherent to their respective positions.
Thus, during 2013, the remunerations received by the members of the Supervisory Board of TD,SA were distributed as follows:
| Supervisory Board | Fixed Remuneration |
Variable Remuneration (a) |
Total Remuneration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mr. António Gonçalves Monteiro | 32,500.00 | 0.00 | 32,500.00 |
| Mr. Mateus Moreira | 19,500.00 | 0.00 | 19,500.00 |
| Mr. Miguel Carmo Pereira Coutinho | 19,500.00 | 0.00 | 19,500.00 |
| 71,500.00 | 0.00 | 71,500.00 |
The total value paid to the Chartered Accountants Firm "MARIQUITO, CORREIA & ASSOCIADOS, SROC" and other natural and legal persons belonging to the same network supported by the Company and/or by legal persons in a controlling or group relationship, relative to the only services provided, that is, Legal Review of Accounts and Audit services, was:
| SROC | Remuneration |
|---|---|
| Legal review of accounts services for the Group | 278,800.00 |
| Other reliability assurance services | 0.00 |
| Tax advisory services | 0.00 |
| Services other than legal review of accounts | 0.00 |
| 278,800.00 |
All the values listed above relative to the remuneration of the members of the Supervisory Board and Chartered Accountants Firm were paid during 2013, therefore there are no portions whose payment is deferred over time.
Furthermore, it should also be noted that, as established in the Policy of Remuneration of the Management and Supervisory Bodies and, simultaneously, in compliance with the provisions in Recommendation number III.2, the remuneration of the members of the supervisory body does not include any component whose value depends on the performance of the company or its value.
With the exception of the aforesaid Secretary of the Board of the General Meeting, all the other members of this body, under the current system established in the Commercial Companies Code, namely the provisions in 422-A, through number 3 of article 374-A, receive a fixed remuneration for the performance of the duties inherent to the respective positions, determined by the Remuneration Committee established in article 11 of the Articles of Association.
Under these terms, it is disclosed that the remuneration of the Chairman of the Board of the General Meeting was € 5,000.00 (five thousand euros) during 2013.
There is no contractual limit established for the compensation payable for the unfair dismissal of a member of the Board of Directors, considering, firstly, that no contract us signed for the performance of the duties of the position of Director, nor is any agreement signed on any possible compensation payable for fair or unfair dismissal. The existence of a contractual limit under the terms referred to above would be incoherent, in view of the characteristics of the existing relationship between the Company and the members of its Management board.
It should be noted that, pursuant to Recommendation number III.8, no legal mechanisms have been established, apart from those stipulated by the law, for any indemnity or compensation, apart from that legally owed, to be payable when the dismissal of the director neither arises from serious breach of duties nor from incapacity for the normal performance of his duties but, even so, can be attributed to inadequate performance.
It should be recalled that the Directors of the leading listed company of the Teixeira Duarte Group, formerly "Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A." and currently "TD,SA", have always been "in-house people", whose career progression was developed within the Teixeira Duarte Group and are not managers from other companies or groups. Therefore, no situation of dismissal of director has occurred since its incorporation, nor has there ever been any payment of compensation for termination of contract, hence it is deemed inappropriate to establish any legal mechanisms of the nature described above.
84. Reference to the existence and description, indicating the amounts involved, of agreements between the company and members of the management board and senior managers, in observance of number 3 of article 248-B of the Securities Market Code, which establish compensation in the case of resignation, unfair dismissal or termination of the work relation following a change of control of the company (article 245-A, number 1, subparagraph l)).
There are no agreements with these characteristics. The Company follows the policy of not undertaking any payments related to the early termination of the exercise of duties by the Directors or other senior managers, as well as not signing any agreements relative to these matters.
There are no plans relative to the attribution of shares or attribution of options for the acquisition of shares. Some years ago, and in relation to the Group's former leading company, Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A., depending on the circumstances and economic environment, there were reference shareholders who provided a certain number of shares to be assigned to the staff members of this Company for defined periods of time and at specified prices. However, regarding TD,SA and relative to the year under review, there were no such operations.
As described in 85 above, there are no plans relative to the attribution of shares or attribution of options for the acquisition of shares, hence the present provision is not applicable.
As described in 85 above, there are no plans relative to the attribution of shares or attribution of options for the acquisition of shares, hence the present provision is not applicable.
There is no system of participation of the workers in the share capital, therefore there is no justification for the existence of control mechanisms to the extent that the voting rights are not exercised directly by them.
All transactions between entities of the Teixeira Duarte Group with related parties are conducted at market prices. The Concept is clear and undertaken by all business managers of the different areas of the Group who deal with related parties.
This attitude is transversal to all transactions of this nature, in other words, any transfer of resources, services or obligations between related parties, regardless of the existence of a price debit.
In addition to these general guidelines, all transactions between related parties are recorded electronically in the Group's overall supporting platform, which, apart from the actual business managers, is also accessible to the teams dealing with finance and accounting, consolidation of accounts and audit, as well as the actual management and, supplementarily, the supervisory bodies of the Company and Group.
In this context and in view of the mechanisms referred to above, all the transactions with related parties were subject to control under the aforesaid terms. These transactions with related parties and their respective balances and additional information may be consulted in Note 29 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at 31 December 2013.
There are no procedures and criteria under the terms mentioned above since the type of operations carried out between the Company and owners of qualifying holdings are of a current character and for the performance of the activity, namely for financing by Banco Comercial Português, S.A., which is considered to be a matter of the exclusive responsibility and competence of the Board of Directors and which, naturally, concerns operations carried out under normal market conditions, whereby it is deemed inappropriate to subject these transactions to the prior opinion of the supervisory bodies.
The information on business with related parties, in accordance with IAS 24, is reproduced in Note 29 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at 31 December 2013.
The Corporate Governance Code to which the company is subject or has voluntarily decided to adopt should be identified, under the terms and for the effects of article 2 of the present Regulation.
Apart from the applicable legal and regulatory rules, namely the Commercial Companies Code, the Securities Market Code and Regulations of the CMVM, especially Regulation number 4/2013, TD,SA has chosen not adopt any Corporate Governance Code other than that issued by the CMVM in 2013.
The aforesaid Corporate Governance Code issued by the CMVM in 2013 may be consulted at www.cmvm.pt.
Under the terms of article 245-A number 1, subparagraph o), the statement on the endorsement of the corporate governance code to which the issuer is subject should be presented, specifying which, if any, parts of this code there is divergence and the reasons for this divergence.
The information to be presented should include, for each recommendation:
a) Information which enables appraising compliance with the recommendation or reference to the point of the report where the issue is discussed in detail (chapter, title, point and page);
b) Justification for any non-compliance or partial compliance;
c) In the case of non-compliance or partial compliance, identification of any alternative mechanism adopted by the company for the effect of pursuing the same objective of the recommendation.
The company should provide any elements or additional information which, not having been presented in the preceding points, are relevant for the comprehension of the model and governance practices that have been adopted.
The points included in number 2 should be developed simultaneously, since they are interrelated.
Among the 41 Recommendations comprising the aforesaid Corporate Governance Code of the CMVM, the Company does not adopt twelve and partially adopts six.
The table below reproduces the text of these Recommendations with the same numbering of the aforesaid Corporate Governance Code, followed by an indication of their adoption or not and reference to the point in this Report where such matter is described or where, observing the principle of "comply or explain", any non-adoption is justified.

Teixeira Duarte, S.A. ("Company"), legal person number 509.234.526, with head office in Porto Salvo, was incorporated on 30 November 2009, and its core business is the undertaking and management of investments, the coordination and supervision of other companies included in or related to its corporate group, operating essentially in the areas of strategic and organisational planning, as well as the provision of administrative, management, consulting, operational assistance or support in terms of human resources, technical and financial services to companies in which the Group has a stake or entities with which contracts have been concluded for this purpose.
The financial statements attached herewith refer to the Company on an individual basis, with the financial investments in subsidiaries and associates having been recorded through the equity method, as explained in Note 3.2. a).
All the values of these Notes are expressed in thousand euros.
2.1 The present financial statements were prepared in accordance with the Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards (NCRF) established in the Accounting Standardisation System (SNC), approved by Decree-Law number 158/2009, of 13 July, with the corrections of Rectification Statement number 67-B/2009, of 11 September, and as amended by Law number 20/2010, of 23 August.
2.3 During the year ended on 31 December 2013, the Company reclassified balances with Group companies, relative to the Special Taxation Scheme for Groups of Companies (RETGS), formerly recognised under the heading "Shareholders/partners".
Thus, and for purposes of comparison of the present financial year with the preceding financial year, the following restatement was carried out:
| Heading | 2012 | Restatement | 2012 Restated |
|---|---|---|---|
| Current assets: | |||
| Shareholders | 13,974 | (13,974) | - |
| Other accounts receivable | - | 13,547 | 13,547 |
| 13,974 | (427) | 13,547 | |
| Current liabilities: | |||
| Shareholders | 8,231 | (8,231) | - |
| Other accounts receivable | 818 | 7,804 | 8,622 |
| 9,049 | (427) | 8,622 |
3.1 Basis of measurement
The financial statements were prepared pursuant to the historical cost convention, except with respect to investment properties, based on the accounting ledgers and records of the Company kept in accordance with the NCRF.
The Company integrates all the movements of its branches, eliminating internal operations and, if existent, any profit or loss derived thereof.
Financial investments in subsidiary and associated companies are recorded using the equity method, whereby the holdings are initially recorded at their acquisition cost,
then increased or reduced by the difference between that acquisition cost and the value proportional to the holding owned in the equity of these companies, reported on the acquisition date or on the first application of the aforesaid method.
Pursuant to the equity method, financial investments are adjusted periodically by the value corresponding to the participation in the net income of the associates and subsidiaries against Income and Gains or Costs and Losses in subsidiaries and associates, and through other changes which might have occurred in their equity against the heading "Adjustments in financial assets - related to the equity method", as well as through the recognition of impairment losses. Furthermore, the dividends received from these companies are recorded as a reduction in the value of financial investments.
Losses in subsidiaries and associates which exceed the investment made in those entities are not recognised unless the Company has undertaken commitments in relation to them.
On each reporting date, and whenever an event or alteration in circumstances is identified which indicates that the amount for which the asset is recorded may not be recoverable, an assessment is made of the assets' impairment.
Whenever the amount for which the asset is recorded is greater than its recoverable value, an impairment loss is recognised and recorded in the income statement under the respective headings, according to their nature.
The recoverable amount is the highest value between the net sales price and its value in use. The net sales price is the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in a transaction between independent and knowledgeable parties, minus the costs directly attributable to the sale. The value in use is the net present value of the estimated future cash flow which would be expected to arise from the continued use of the asset and its disposal at the end of its useful life. The recoverable amount is estimated for each asset, individually or, when this is not possible, for the unit generating the cash flow to which the asset belongs.
The reversal of impairment losses recognised in previous years is recorded when it is concluded that the previously recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. The reversal of impairment losses is immediately recognised in the income statement under the respective headings.
The reversal of the impairment loss is made up to the amount that would have been recognised (net of amortisation or depreciation) if the impairment loss had not been recorded in previous years.
Income and costs are recorded on an accrual basis, through which they are recognised as they are generated.
When the real value of the costs and income is unknown, they are estimated.
Differences between the amounts received and paid and the corresponding income and costs are recorded under "Other accounts receivable" and "Deferrals" (current and non-current) in the assets and under "Other accounts payable" and "Deferrals" (current and non-current) in the liabilities.
Borrowing costs are recognised in the income statement for the year to which they refer, except to the extent that the financial costs of the loans received directly related to the acquisition, construction and production of assets that take a substantial period of time to become ready for their intended use, are capitalised as part of the costs of the assets. The capitalisation of these costs begins after the beginning of the preparation of construction activities or development of the asset and is interrupted after the beginning of use or end of production or construction of the asset or when the project concerned is suspended. Any financial gain arising from loans obtained in advance and which may be allocated to a specific investment is deducted from financial costs eligible for capitalisation.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party in the contractual relationship.
The amounts included in Cash and cash equivalents correspond to cash, bank deposits, term deposits and other cash investments, with a maturity of less than three months and which can be immediately mobilised with no significant risk of change in value.
Accounts receivable are measured, when recognised initially, at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost in accordance with the effective interest rate method. When there is an indication that they are impaired, their adjustment is recorded through profit or loss. The recognised adjustment is measured by the difference between the value at which the receivables are recognised and the present value of the cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate determined at their initial recognition.
Investments are recognised on the date when the inherent risks and rewards are transferred substantially. They are initially recorded at their acquisition value, which is the fair value of the price paid, including transaction costs.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the nature of the contract regardless of their legal form. Equity instruments are contracts that have a residual interest in the company's assets after deduction of the liabilities.
Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the amount received net of costs incurred with their issue.
Accounts payable are measured at fair value when they are initially recognised and are subsequently stated at amortised cost in accordance with the effective interest rate method less estimated impairment losses.
Loans are initially recorded and recognised as liabilities at their nominal value, net of the costs incurred to issue them and subsequently measured through the amortised cost method. Financial costs, calculated in accordance with the effective interest rate and including premiums payable, are accounted for in accordance with the accrual accounting principle, being added to the book value of the loan if they are not settled during the financial year.
The cost relative to "Income tax for the period" corresponds to the sum of current tax and deferred tax.
Current income tax in Portugal is calculated based on the taxable profit of the entity in accordance with the tax rules in force, while deferred tax results from the temporary differences between the amount of the assets and liabilities for the effect of accounts reporting (book value) and the respective amounts for tax purposes (tax base).
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated and assessed annually using the taxation rates which are in force or announced to be in force on the expected date of the reversal of the temporary differences.
Deferred taxes assets are recognised only when there are reasonable expectations of sufficient future taxable profits for their use, or in situations where there are temporary differences for taxation purposes which compensate the deductible temporary differences in the period of their reversal.
At the end of each period these deferred taxes are reviewed and reduced whenever their future use is no longer probable.
Deferred taxes are recorded as a cost or income for the year, unless they arise from values recorded directly under equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recorded under the same heading.
Contingent assets are possible assets derived from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence, or not, of one or more uncertain future events, not totally under the control of the entity.
Contingent assets are not recognised in the consolidated financial statements of the entity, but are disclosed when the existence of a future economic benefit is probable.
Contingent liabilities are defined as: (i) possible liabilities arising from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence, or not, of one or more
uncertain future events not totally under the control of the entity; or (ii) present liabilities which arise from past events but are not recognised because it is unlikely that an outflow of resources affecting economic benefits will be required to settle the liability or the amount of the liability cannot be measured reliably.
Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the consolidated financial statements, but are disclosed, unless the possibility of an outflow of funds affecting future economic benefits is remote, in which case they are not even disclosed.
3.3 Value judgements of the management body
When preparing the financial statements, the Company adopted certain assumptions and estimates which affect the related assets, liabilities, income and costs. All the estimates and assumptions made by the Board of Directors were based on the best existing knowledge, at the date of the approval of the financial statements, of the events and transactions in progress.
The estimates were determined based on the best information available on the date of preparation of the financial statements and on the best knowledge and experience of past and/or current events. However, situations might occur in subsequent periods which, not having been predictable on that date, were not considered in these estimates. Any alterations to the estimates, which occur subsequently to the date of the financial statements, will be corrected prospectively in the income statement.

Following various inspections conducted by the Taxation and Customs Authority (AT) to the accounts of Teixeira Duarte - Gestão de Participações Investimentos Imobiliários, S.A. ("T.D.- G.P.I.I., S.A."), a company 100% held indirectly by Teixeira Duarte, S.A. relative to the financial years of 2007 to 2011, the following corrections were made to the tax losses that had initially been reported for T.D.-G.P.I.I., S.A.:
| Year | Calculated tax loss | AT correction |
|---|---|---|
| 2007 | 46,632 | 29,331 |
| 2008 | 50,590 | 45,938 |
| 2009 | 50,182 | 24,807 |
| 2010 | 18,165 | 6,467 |
| 2011 | 12,779 | 3,213 |
With the exception of the amount of 611 thousand euros, included in the correction to the tax loss for 2008 (relative, according to the AT, to the undue application of number 10 of article 22 of the EBF to the distribution of income by the TDF Closed Real Estate Investment Fund), these corrections arise entirely from the non-acceptance, as a tax cost, of the financial costs incurred with the investment made in companies in which the Group has a stake under the form of additional paid-in capital.
Since T.D.-G.P.I.I., S.A. is subject to corporate income tax (IRC) in accordance with the special taxation scheme for groups of companies (RETGS) (article 69 and following of the IRC Code), the corrections to the tax losses of the financial years of 2008 and 2009 were the object of Statements of Payment of IRC and compensatory interest issued to the controlling company, Teixeira Duarte - Engenharia e Construções, S.A. ("Teixeira Duarte - E.C., S.A."), which filed judicial reviews at the Administrative and Fiscal Court of Sintra.
During 2013, Teixeira Duarte - E.C., S.A., as the controlling company, was notified of the Report of Conclusions for the financial year of 2010 and consequent additional Statements of Payment of IRC and compensatory interest associated to the corrections for the financial year of 2010. The Company is currently preparing the corresponding objection, considering the applicable legal periods.
Notwithstanding the unfavourable outcome to the claims of T.D.-G.P.I.I., S.A. and, consequently, the controlling company, under the proceedings relative to the financial year of 2006, the Board of Directors continues to expect a different outcome for the other financial years subject to corrections.
It should be noted that the Statement of Payment of IRC and compensatory interest for the financial year of 2008 issued to Teixeira Duarte - E.C., S.A. as the controlling company, apart from the corrections described above relative to the controlled company T.D.-G.P.I.I., also include a correction to the taxable profit calculated at an individual level by Teixeira Duarte - E.C., S.A.
The total amount of corrections to taxable profit reached 35,467 thousand euros, of which Teixeira Duarte - E.C., S.A. objected to 32,595 thousand euros, related to tax credit, the system of re-investment of tax gains and the undue application of number 10 of article 22 of the EBF.
The correction relative to the financial year of 2011 made to the company T.D. - G.P.I.I., S.A. in which the Group has a stake has not yet been the object of any additional payment by the controlling company, as the controlling company, as at the closing date of December 2013.
The Company, and most of the companies in which it has a stake based in Portugal, are subject to Corporate Income Tax (IRC) at the rate of 25%. Entities which record taxable profit are also subject to the Municipal Surcharge, whose rate may vary to the maximum of 1.5%, as well as the State Surcharge, incident on the portion of taxable profit in excess of 1,500,000 euros and 7,500,000 euros, at the rates of 3% and 5%, respectively. Regardless of the profit for tax purposes recorded for the year, the entities referred to above are also subject to autonomous taxation on the expenses and at the rates established in article 88 of the Corporate Income Tax Code.
For the calculation of the taxable profit, to which the aforesaid tax rates are applied, after deduction of the tax losses carried forward, non-acceptable amounts for tax purposes are added to and/or subtracted from the book value profit. These differences between the book value profit or loss and the profit or loss for tax purposes may be of a temporary or permanent nature.
The Company and the companies in which it, directly or indirectly, holds a stake of at at least 90% of their capital, provided that this confers the Company over 50% of the voting rights, with head office and effective management located in Portugal, are taxed under the special taxation scheme for groups of companies (RETGS). This scheme consists of the aggregation of the taxable assets and liabilities of all the companies included in the consolidation perimeter, as provided in article 63 of the Corporate Income Tax Code, with the application of the IRC rates to the overall amount obtained in this manner, after deduction of the tax losses carried forward. The value of tax calculated in this form is increased by the Municipal and State Surcharge, if applicable, calculated individually and at the rates referred to above, as well as by the autonomous taxation calculated for each company.
Pursuant to the legislation in force, tax returns in Portugal may be reviewed and corrected by the tax authorities for a period, in general, of four years (five years for Social Security).
The Board of Directors believes that any corrections which might arise from any tax reviews/inspections to these tax returns will not significantly affect the individual financial statements reported as at 31 December 2013.
The Company records deferred taxes corresponding to the temporary differences between the book value of the assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax base, as laid down in NCRF 25 - Income Tax, whenever it is probable that future tax profits will be generated against which the temporary differences may be used. It should be noted that this assessment is based on the Company's business plan, which is periodically reviewed and updated.
8.1 Regarding Income Tax, the relationship between the tax cost/income and the book value profit, for the years ended on 31 December 2013 and 2012, is as follows:
| 2012 | 2011 | |

The Company is exposed to a number of financial risks arising from its activities, where the following deserve special mention:
The Company's Financial Department ensures the centralised management of the financing operations, applications of cash surplus, currency conversion transactions, as well as the counterpart risk of the Company. In addition to the above, it is responsible for identifying, measuring, proposing and implementing measures to manage/mitigate the financial risks to which the Company is exposed.
The main financial risks to which the Company is exposed and the main measures implemented to manage them are analysed in greater detail below.
16.1 Interest rate risk
The objective of the interest rate risk management policy is the minimisation of the cost of debt subject to the maintenance of a low level of volatility of financial costs.
As at 31 December 2013 and 2012, the financial liabilities consist, only and exclusively, of variable interest rates.
Had the market interest rates been lower by 1% during the years ended on 31 December 2013 and 2012, the financial results for these years would have increased by 260 thousand euros and 148 thousand euros, respectively. In contrast, had the same market interest rates been higher by 1% during the same periods, their financial results would have fallen by 260 thousand euros and 148 thousand euros, respectively.
This risk can occur if the sources of financing, such as the cash flows from operating activities, divestment, credit lines and from financing operations, do not meet the financing needs, such as the cash outflows for operating activities and financing, investments, remuneration of shareholders and debt repayment.
In order to mitigate this risk, the Company seeks to maintain a liquidity position and an average maturity of debt that allows it to repay its debt within reasonable periods of time.
Financial liabilities maturing within one year are replaced with medium and long term maturities as deemed appropriate.
The maturity of the financial liabilities as at 31 December 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

| % Share Capital Nr. of Shares | ||
|---|---|---|
| Teixeira Duarte - Sociedade Gestora de Participações Sociais, S.A. | 47% | 197,950,000 |
The Portuguese commercial legislation establishes that at least 5% of annual net income should be used to reinforce the legal reserve until it represents at least 20% of the share capital. This reserve is not distributable, except in the case of the Company's liquidation, but may be used to absorb losses, after all the other reserves have been depleted, or incorporated in the share capital.
Through decision of the General Meeting, held on 25 May 2013, the accounts for the financial year of 2012 were approved and it was decided that the recorded net income of the value of € 20,478,206.13 (twenty million, four hundred and seventy-eight thousand, two hundred and six euros and thirteen euro cents) should be appropriated as follows:
| Value | |
|---|---|
| Legal Reserves | 4,500,000.00 |
| Free Reserves | 9,678,206.13 |
| Dividends | 6,300,000.00 |
| 20,478,206.13 |
The Board of Directors discloses that the Company does not have any debts to the State in a situation of late payment, under the terms of Decree-Law 534/80, of 7 November.
Pursuant to Decree-Law number 411/91, of 17 October, the Board of Directors discloses that the situation of the Company relative to Social Security is settled, within the legally stipulated periods of time.
At this date, no subsequent events are known of any significant impact on the Financial Statements as at 31 December 2013.
After the closure of the financial year, and up to the preparation of the present report, no other facts have occurred that might modify the situation reported in the accounts, for the effect of the provisions in subparagraph b) of number 5 of article 66 of the Commercial Companies Code.

The values indicated herein are expressed in thousand euros, since this is the currency used preferably in the economic environment in which the Group operates. The operations conducted abroad are included in the consolidated financial statements pursuant to the policy described in Note 2.9.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the assumption of the continuity of operations, based on the accounting books and records of the companies included in the consolidation (Note 4), adjusted in accordance with the consolidation process, in order to conform with the provisions of the International Financial Reporting Standards adopted by the European Union, effective for financial years beginning on 1 January 2013.
The standards include the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), the International Accounting Standards ("IAS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Committee ("IASC") and respective interpretations, issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee ("IFRIC") and Standing Interpretation Committee ("SIC"), respectively, whose adoption has been approved by the European Union. Hereinafter, these standards and interpretations shall be referred to in general as "IFRS".

The following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions endorsed by the European Union are of compulsory application for the first time in the financial year ended on 31 December 2013:

1-Jan-13 | These improvements involve the revision of various standards, namely IFRS 1 (re peated application of the standard), IAS 1 (comparative information), IAS 16 (service equipment), IAS 32 (tax effect of the distribution of equity instruments) and IAS 34 (segmental information). |
There were no relevant impacts on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended on 31 December 2013, arising from the adoption of the standards and interpretations, amendments and revisions referred to above.
The following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions, of compulsory application in future financial years had been endorsed by the European Union by the date of approval of these financial statements:
| Standard / Interpretation | Applicable in financial years starting on or after |
Comments |
|---|---|---|
| IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements | 1-Jan-14 | This standard establishes the requirements relative to the presentation of consolidated financial statements by the parent company, replacing, with regard to these aspects, standard IAS 27 - Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements and SIC 12 - Consolidation - Special Purpose Entities. This standard also introduces new rules with respect the definition of control and the determination of the consolidation perimeter. |
| IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements | 1-Jan-14 | This standard has replaced IAS 31 - Joint Ventures and SIC 13 - Jointly Controlled Entities - Non-monetary Contributions by Venturers, and eliminated the possibility of use of the proportional consolidation method in the statement of interests in joint ventures. |
| IFRS 12 - Disclosures of Interests in Other Entities | 1-Jan-14 | This standard has established a new series of disclosures relative to interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and non-consolidated entities. |
| IAS 27 - Separate Financial Statements (2011) | 1-Jan-14 | This amendment has restricted the scope of application of IAS 27 to separate financial statements |
| IAS 28 - Investments in Associates and Jointly Controlled Entities (2011) |
1-Jan-14 | This amendment now ensures consistency between IAS 28 - Investments in Associates and the new standards endorsed, in particular IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements. |
| Amendment to standards: IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements; IFRS 12 - Disclosures of Interests in Other Entities (Investment Entities) |
1-Jan-14 | This amendment has introduced exemption from consolidation for certain entities which meet the definition of an investment entity. It also establishes the rules for the measurements of investments held by these investment entities. |
| Standard / Interpretation | Applicable in financial years starting on or after |
Comments |
|---|---|---|
| Amendment to IAS 32 - Offsetting Financial Assets and Liabilities |
1-Jan-14 | This amendment has clarified certain aspects of the standard related to the application of requirements for offsetting financial assets and liabilities. |
| Amendment to IAS 36 - Impairment (Disclosures on the recoverable amount of non-financial assets) |
1-Jan-14 | This amendment eliminates the requirements of disclosure of the recoverable amount of a cash-generating unit with goodwill or intangibles with undefined useful life allocated in periods where no impairment loss or reversal of impairment was recorded. It introduces additional disclosure requirements for assets relative to which an impairment loss or reversal of impairment has been recorded and the their recoverable amount was determined based on fair value minus selling costs. |
| Amendment to IAS 39 - Financial Instruments: recognition and Measurement (Reformulation of derivatives and continuation of hedge accounting) |
1-Jan-14 | This amendment has enabled, under certain circumstances, the continuation of hedge accounting when a derivative classified as a hedge instrument is reformulated. |
The Company did not proceed with the early application of any of these standards in the financial statements for the year ended on 31 December 2013.
Due to the enforcement on 1 January 2014 of IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements, the statement of interests in joint ventures as mentioned in Note 2.3. b) will no longer be permitted. Therefore, as of 1 January 2014 the proportional consolidation of these assets and liabilities will be discontinued and they will be henceforth recognised in the consolidated financial statements by the equity method. In accordance with the equity method, financial holdings are recorded at their acquisition cost adjusted by the value corresponding to the group's holding in the changes in the equity (including net income) of these companies against gains or losses for the year and dividends received, net of accumulated impairment losses. The impacts of this alteration on the financial position and consolidated income statement will be as follows:

The following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions, of compulsory application in future financial years had not been endorsed by the European Union by the date of approval of these financial statements:
| Standard / Interpretation | Comments |
|---|---|
| IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments (2009) and subsequent amendments | This standard is included in the draft revision of IAS 39 and establishes the requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets. |
| Amendments to standards: IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments (2013) IFRS 7 - Financial Instruments Disclosures |
The amendment to IFRS 9 is included in the draft revision of IAS 39 and establishes the requirements for the application of hedge accounting rules. IFRS 7 was also revised as a result of this amendment. |
| Amendment to IAS 19 - Employee Benefits | This amendment clarifies the circumstances under which the contributions of employees to post-employment benefit plans constitute a reduction of the cost related to short term benefits. |
| Improvements to the international financial reporting standards (2011-2013 cycle) |
These improvements involve the revision of various standards. |
| IFRIC 21 - Payments to the State | This amendment establishes the conditions regarding the timing of the recognition of a liability related to the payment to the State of a contribution by an entity as a result of a particular event (for example, participation in a certain market), when this payment is not made in exchange of the specified goods and services. |
These standards have not yet been endorsed by the European Union and, as such, were not applied by the Group in the financial year ended on 31 December 2013.
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with principles of recognition and measurement of the IFRS requires the Executive Board of Directors to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that might affect the reported value of assets and liabilities.
These estimates are based on the best knowledge existing at all times and on the planned actions, and are periodically reviewed based on the available information. Changes in facts and circumstances may lead to the need to review the estimates, hence the actual future results may differ from these estimates.
The significant estimates and assumptions made by the Board of Directors in preparing these consolidated financial statements include, namely, the assumptions used in the treatment of the following aspects:
The determination of a possible impairment loss can be triggered by the occurrence of different events, many of which are outside the sphere of influence of the Group, such as the availability of future financing, the cost of capital or any other changes.
The identification of impairment indicators, the estimate of future cash flows and the determination of the recoverable amount of assets imply a high degree of judgement by the Board of Directors regarding the identification and evaluation of various impairment indicators, expected cash flows, applicable discount rates, useful lives and residual values.
Goodwill is subject to annual impairment tests or whenever there are indications of a possible loss in value. The recoverable values of the cash flow generating units to which the goodwill is allocated, are determined based on expected cash flow. These calculations require the use of estimates by the Board of Directors regarding the future evolution of the business and discount rates considered.
The useful life of an asset is the time during which an entity expects an asset to be available for use, which must be reviewed at least at the end of each financial year.
The determination of the useful lives of assets, the amortisation / depreciation method to be applied and estimated losses resulting from the replacement of equipment before the end of its useful life, for reasons of technological obsolescence, is essential to determine the amount of amortisation / depreciation to be recognised in the consolidated income statement for each financial year.
These three parameters are defined according to the management's best estimate for the assets and business in question, also considering the practices adopted by companies in the Group's operating segments.
The Group periodically analyses possible obligations arising from past events that must be recognised or disclosed. The subjectivity inherent in determining the likelihood of the existence of a present liability and amount of internal resources necessary for the payment of the obligations could lead to significant adjustments, either by changing the assumptions made, or by the future recognition of provisions previously disclosed as contingent liabilities.
Deferred tax assets are only recognised when there is a reasonable expectation that there will be sufficient future taxable profits to use them or when there are deferred tax liabilities whose reversal is expected to occur in the same period of the reversal of the deferred tax assets. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed by the management at the end of each year and takes into consideration the expectation of future tax performance.
The credit risk associated to accounts receivable is evaluated at the end of each reporting date, taking into account the debtor's historical information and risk profile. The accounts receivable are adjusted according to the management's assessment of the estimated risks of recovery existing on the reporting date, which may prove to be erroneous.
The Group recognises the earnings of construction contracts in accordance with the percentage completion method, which is defined as the relationship between the incurred costs in each contract up to the reporting date and the sum of these costs with the estimated costs to complete the contract. The assessment of the degree of completion of each contract is periodically reviewed, taking into account the latest production indicators.
Investment properties are measured at their fair value, which is determined through valuations, in some cases made by independent specialised entities and in accordance with generally accepted valuation criteria for the real estate market. These valuations are based on observable market data and require judgments by the valuator with respect to the transaction conditions of each property in the market, which might diverge from the outcome recorded in the future.
The controlled companies are consolidated in each financial year through the full consolidation method. Control exists when the Group directly or indirectly holds a majority of the voting rights in the General Meeting, or has the power to determine the financial and operating policies.
Third party participation in the equity and net income of these companies is presented separately in the consolidated statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income, under the respective headings of "Non-controlling interests"
Significant transactions and balances between these companies were eliminated during the consolidation process. Capital gains arising from the disposal of participated companies, made within the Group, were also annulled.
Whenever appropriate, adjustments are made to the financial statements of the subsidiaries with a view to the standardisation of their accounting policies with those of the Group.
Investments in jointly controlled companies (Note 24) were consolidated through the proportional consolidation method, from the date on which joint control is acquired. According to this method, the assets, liabilities, income and expenditure of these companies were integrated into the consolidated financial statements on a line-by-line basis, in proportion to the Group's control over them.
Transactions, balances and dividends distributed between companies are eliminated in the proportion of the Group's control over them.
The classification of financial investments in jointly controlled companies is determined based on agreements that regulate the joint control.
Business combinations, namely the the acquisition of jointly controlled companies, are recorded through the acquisition method.
The acquisition cost corresponds to the sum of the fair values of the assets acquired, liabilities incurred or assumed and the equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for the acquired control. Costs related to the acquisition are recognised as a cost when incurred. When applicable, the acquisition cost also includes the fair value of contingent payments measured on the acquisition date. Subsequent alterations in the value of contingent payments are recorded in accordance with the accounting rules which regulate the recording of the assets or liabilities in question, unless they qualify as an adjustment in the provisional measurement period (with a maximum of 12 months).
The identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of a subsidiary that meet the criteria to be recognised in accordance with IFRS 3 - Business Combinations ("IFRS 3"'), are measured by their fair value on the acquisition date, except for non-current assets (or groups of assets) which are classified as held for sale, in accordance with IFRS 5 - Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations ("IFRS 5"), which are recognised and measured at the respective fair value minus the costs to be incurred in their future sale.
Any excess of the acquisition cost increased by the value of the non-controlled interests relative to the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities is recognised as Goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the identified net assets, the difference is recorded as net income gain for the period when the acquisition occurs, after re-confirmation of the attributed fair value.
If the process of recording of the business combinations is incomplete by the end of the year when the combination occurs, the Group discloses this same situation, and the provisioned values may be adjusted during the measurement period (the period between the acquisition date and the date when the Group obtains the complete information on the facts and circumstances that existed on the acquisition date and within the maximum of 12 months), or new assets and liabilities may be recognised so as to reflect facts and circumstances that existed on the reporting date and which, in known cases, would have affected the amounts recognised on the acquisition date.
Non-controlling interests are identified separately in equity by the equity attributable to the shareholders of the Parent Company. Non-controlling interests may be measured initially either at their fair value or by the proportion of the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the acquired subsidiary. This option is made separately for each transaction.
After the initial recognition the book value of the minority interests is determined as the value recognised initially plus the proportion of alterations of equity of the subsidiary. The full income of a subsidiary is attributed to the non-controlling interests even if it is negative.
Changes in the percentage control of subsidiaries that do not result in a loss in control are recorded as equity transactions. The value of the Group's interests and the noncontrolled interests is adjusted to reflect the percentage changes. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the transaction price is recognised directly under equity and attributed to the shareholders of the Parent Company.
When the Group loses control over a subsidiary, the gain or loss in the divestment is calculated as the difference between (i) the aggregate amount of the fair value of the price and the fair value of the retained interests and (ii) the book value of the assets (including goodwill) and the liabilities of the subsidiary and of the non-controlling interests. Amounts recognised previously as other comprehensive income are transferred to profit or loss for the year or transferred to retained earnings in the same way as would be the case if the related assets or liabilities were sold. The fair value of the retained interests corresponds to the fair value in the initial recognition for the effect of subsequent recording under IAS 39 - Financial instruments or, as and when applicable, the cost for the effect of the initial recognition of an investment in an associate or joint venture.
An associate is a company in which the Group exercises significant influence, through participation in decisions relative to its financial and operating policies, but does not have control or joint control over it.
Financial investments in most of the associates (Note 23) are recorded through the equity method, except when they are classified as held for sale, with the shares initially stated at acquisition cost, which is increased or decreased according to the difference between this cost and the proportional value of the holding in the equity of these companies reported on the date of acquisition or first application of this method.
Pursuant to the equity method, financial holdings are adjusted periodically by the amount corresponding to the participation in the net income of the associated companies against "Earnings from associates", and through other changes in their equity against "Adjustments of holdings in associates", as well as through the recognition of impairment losses. Furthermore, the dividends received from these companies are recorded as a reduction in the value of financial investments.
Losses in associates which exceed the investment made in these entities are not recognised unless the Group has undertaken commitments in relation to them.
Any excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of the identifiable net assets is recorded as "Investments in associates - goodwill". In cases where the acquisition cost is lower than the fair value of the identified net assets, the difference is recorded as a gain in the income statement for the year in which the acquisition occurs.
Unrealised gains on transactions with associates are eliminated in proportion to the Group's interest in the associate, against the investment made in that associate. Unrealised losses are eliminated in a similar manner, but only to the extent that the loss does not show that the transferred asset is impaired.
Differences between the acquisition cost of the investments in subsidiaries, jointly controlled and associates, plus, in the case of subsidiaries, the value of the non-controlled interests and fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of these companies on their acquisition date, if positive, are recorded as goodwill (in the case of subsidiaries and jointly controlled companies) or maintained under the heading of investments in associates.
Goodwill is recognised as an asset and is not subject to amortisation, and is presented separately in the consolidated statement of financial position or under the heading "Investments in associates" (Notes 19 and 23). Regarding the goodwill of subsidiaries and jointly controlled companies, annually, or whenever there are indications of a possible loss in value, the goodwill values are subject to impairment tests. Any impairment loss is immediately recorded as a cost in the consolidated income statement for the period and is not subject to subsequent reversal.
Upon the disposal of a subsidiary, associate or jointly controlled company, the corresponding goodwill is included in the determination of the capital gain or loss.
Where the acquisition cost is less than the fair value of the identified net assets, the difference is recognised as a gain for the period in which the acquisition occurs.
Intangible assets essentially comprise contractual rights and costs incurred in specific projects with future economic value, and are stated at cost, minus accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Intangible assets are recognised only if it is probable that they will produce future economic benefits for the Group, are controllable by the Group and their value can be measured reliably.
Internally generated intangible assets, including expenditure on current research and development, are recognised as a cost for the period when they are incurred.
Internal costs relating to the maintenance and development of software are recorded as costs in the income statement when incurred, except when such costs relate directly to projects which will probably generate future economic benefits for the Group. In such cases, these costs are capitalised as intangible assets.
Amortisation is calculated, after the beginning of use of the assets, through the straight-line method, in accordance with the year of utility that the Group expects of the assets concerned.
Tangible fixed assets used in production, services rendered or for administrative use are recorded at acquisition or construction cost, including the expenses incurred with their acquisition, minus accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, when applicable.
Tangible fixed assets are depreciated through the straight-line method, according to their estimated useful life, from the date on which they are available to be used for the intended purpose and cease when the assets become classified as non-current assets held for sale. Depreciation is calculated in accordance with the following estimated useful lives:
| Years of useful life | |
|---|---|
| Buildings and other constructions | 5 - 20 |
| Basic equipment Transport equipment |
4 - 8 3 - 7 |
| Tools and utensils Administrative equipment |
3 - 7 2 - 10 |
| Other tangible fixed assets | 1 - 4 |
Improvements and upgrades are only recognised as assets when they correspond to the replacement of goods, which are written-off, or lead to an increase in future economic benefits.
Tangible fixed assets in progress correspond to tangible assets under construction and are recorded at acquisition cost minus any impairment losses. These tangible fixed assets are depreciated as from the time when the underlying assets are able to be used for the intended purposes.
Capital gains or losses arising from the sale or write-off of tangible fixed assets are determined by the difference between the sales price and the net book value on the date of sale/write-off and stated at their net worth in the income statement under "Other operating income" or "Other operating costs", as applicable.
Lease contracts are classified as: (i) financial leases, if all the risks and benefits of their ownership are transferred substantially; or (ii) operating leases, if all the risks and benefits of ownership are not transferred substantially.
Leases are classified as financial or operating leases according to the nature of the contract and not its form.
Assets acquired under financial lease contracts, as well as the corresponding liabilities, are recorded through the financial method, recognising the asset, the corresponding accumulated depreciation and the outstanding debts payable pursuant to the contractual financial plan. Furthermore, the interest included in the lease instalments and depreciation / amortisation of the assets are recognised as costs in the income statement of the period to which they refer.
For operating leases, the instalments payable are recognised as a cost in the income statement on a straight line basis during the year of the lease contract.
Impairment is assessed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the amount at which an asset is recognised might not be recovered. When such indications exist, the Group determines the recoverable value of the asset, so as to determine the possible extent of the impairment loss.
In situations where the individual asset does not generate cash flow independently of other assets, the recoverable value is estimated for the cash flow generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Whenever the amount for which the asset is recorded is greater than its recoverable value, an impairment loss of the difference is recognised, which is recorded in the income statement under the heading "Provisions and impairment losses in depreciable and amortisable assets and goodwill".
The recoverable amount is the highest value between an asset's net sales price (sales price minus the costs of its sale) and its value in use. The net sales price is the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in a transaction between independent and knowledgeable parties, minus the costs directly attributable to the sale. The value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows that are expected from continued use of the asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. The recoverable amount is estimated for each individual asset or, when this is not possible, for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
The reversal of impairment losses is recorded when there are indications that the recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. The reversal of impairment losses is recognised in the income statement under "Provisions and impairment losses in depreciable and amortisable assets and goodwill" for the year when the reversal occurs. However, the reversal of the impairment loss is made up to the amount that would have been recognised (net of amortisation or depreciation) if the impairment loss had not been recorded in prior years.
Investment properties, which include land and buildings held for leasing, capital appreciation, or both, are recorded initially at their acquisition price or at construction cost (in the case of own construction investment), including any directly attributable expenditure.
After their initial recognition, all the investment properties, including those that are under construction, are measured at their fair value reflecting market conditions on the reporting date. All gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment properties are recognised through profit or loss for the year when they occur and recorded under the heading "Variation in the fair value of investment properties", included in "Other operating income" or "Other operating costs", depending on whether they refer to gains or losses.
The fair value of each investment property is determined through valuations, in some cases made by independent specialised entities and in accordance with generally accepted valuation criteria for the real estate market. In all other cases, the market value is determined internally, based on criteria similar to those considered by external valuators.
The costs incurred for investment properties in use, namely maintenance, repairs, insurance and taxes, are recognised in the income statement for the year to which they refer. Improvements or upgrades are only recorded as assets when they correspond to the replacement of goods, which are written-off, or lead to an increase in future economic benefits.
The financial statements are presented in euro, since this is the currency used preferably in the economic environment in which the Group operates.
Transactions carried out in currencies other than the euro are recorded at the rates prevailing on the transaction date. On each reporting date, the monetary assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies are converted into euros using the exchange rates in force on that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities recorded at fair value denominated in foreign currencies are converted into euros using the exchange rate in force on the date when the fair value was determined.
Favourable and unfavourable exchange rate differences arising from differences between the exchange rates on the date of the transactions and those in force on the date of the collection, payment, or the reporting date of such transactions are recorded as gains and costs in the income statement for the year, except those related to non-monetary items whose change in fair value is directly recorded in equity under the heading "Currency conversion adjustments."
The financial statements of subsidiaries and jointly controlled companies expressed in foreign currencies are converted considering the exchange rate in force on the reporting date for the conversion of assets and liabilities, the historical exchange rate for the conversion of the balances of the equity headings, and the average exchange rate for the year of the conversion of the headings of the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income and cash flow statement.
Pursuant to IAS 21 - Effects of changes in foreign exchange rates ("IAS 21"), the goodwill and fair value corrections determined upon the acquisition of foreign entities are considered in the reporting currency of these entities, and are converted into euros at the exchange rate in force on the reporting date. Exchange rate differences generated in this way are recorded under the heading "Currency conversion adjustments."
Borrowing costs are recognised in the income statement for the year to which they refer, except when the financial costs of the loans received are directly related to the acquisition, construction and production of assets that take a substantial period of time to become ready for their intended use, and are capitalised as part of the costs of the asset. The capitalisation of these costs begins after the beginning of the preparation of construction activities or development of the asset and is interrupted after the beginning of use or end of production or construction of the asset or when the project concerned is suspended. Any financial gain arising from loans obtained in advance and which may be allocated to a specific investment is deducted from financial costs eligible for capitalisation.
Government grants are recognised at their fair value when there is reasonable assurance that they will be received and that the Group will comply with the grant conditions.
Operating grants, particularly for employee training, are recognised in the income statement in accordance with costs incurred.
Investment grants relating to the acquisition of tangible fixed assets are included under "Other current liabilities" and "Other non-current liabilities" (as applicable) and are credited to the income statement according to the straight-line depreciation / amortisation of the assets financed with the grants.
Goods and raw materials are stated at acquisition cost, using the average cost as the costing method.
Intermediate and finished products and work in progress are stated at the weighted average cost of production, which includes the cost of the incorporated raw materials, labour and manufacturing overheads (considering the depreciation of production equipment calculated on the basis of normal usage levels), which is below the net realisable value. The net realisable value corresponds to the normal sales price minus the production completion costs and marketing costs.
The difference between the cost value and respective realisation value of the inventories, when the latter is lower than the book value, is recorded as impairment losses in inventories.
Provisions are recognised when and only when: i) the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, ii) it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and iii) a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The provisions are reviewed on each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the best estimate on that reporting date.
A business segment is a group of assets and operations involved in the provision of products and services subject to risks and benefits that are different from other business segments. A geographic segment is a group of assets and operations involved in the provision of products and services in a specific economic environment, which is subject to risks and benefits different from those that affect segments that operate in other economic environments.
The Group presents business segments as operating segments, in a manner consistent with the way the management conducts the business.
Net operating income includes all the costs and revenues of operating activities, both recurrent and non-recurrent, including restructuring costs and the costs and revenues related to operating assets (tangible fixed assets and other intangible assets). It also includes the capital gains or losses calculated on the sale of companies included in the consolidation using the full or proportional consolidation method. Hence, net financing costs, the net income of associates, other financial investments and income tax are excluded from net operating income.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party in the respective contractual relationship.
The amounts included in "Cash and equivalent" heading correspond to cash, bank deposits, term deposits and other cash investments with a maturity of less than three months and which are immediately repayable on demand with no significant risk of change in value.
Accounts receivable are measured, when recognised initially, at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost in accordance with the effective interest rate method. When there is evidence that they are impaired, the corresponding adjustment is recorded through profit or loss under the heading "Other operating costs". The recognised adjustment is measured by the difference between the value at which the receivables are recognised and the present value of the cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate determined at their initial recognition.
Investments are recognised on the date when the inherent risks and rewards are transferred substantially. They are initially recorded at their acquisition value, which is the fair value of the price paid, including transaction costs.
Investments are classified as follows:
Financial assets available for sale are financial investments which are available for sale and are classified as non-current assets.
After initial recognition, the financial assets available for sale are measured by reference to their market value on the reporting date, with no deduction for transaction costs that could arise up to the date of their sale. Gains or losses due to changes in the fair value are recorded in equity, under the heading "Fair value reserve" until the investment is sold, received or disposed in any other way, or when impairment losses are believed to exist, in which case the accumulated gain or loss is recorded in the income statement.
Financial assets available for sale in equity instruments that do not have a market price listed in an active market and whose fair value cannot be measured reliably are measured at their acquisition cost minus any accumulated impairment losses, and are recorded under the heading "Other investments".
Furthermore, assets measured at fair value through profit or loss are revalued at their fair value with reference to their market value on the reporting date, without any deduction for transaction costs that may be incurred until their sale. These assets are recognised in the heading "Other investments" and any variation in their fair value is recorded under the heading "Earnings from investment activities - Other".
Equity instruments are classified according to the nature of the contract regardless of their legal form. Equity instruments are contracts that have a residual interest in the Group's assets after deducting its liabilities.
Equity instruments issued by the Group are recorded at the amount received net of the costs incurred to issue them.
Accounts payable are measured initially at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost in accordance with the effective interest rate method.
Loans are initially recorded and recognised as liabilities at their nominal value, net of the costs incurred to issue them and subsequently measured through the amortised cost method. Financial costs, calculated in accordance with the effective interest rate and including premiums payable, are accounted for in accordance with the accrual accounting principle, being added to the book value of the loan if they are not settled during the financial year.
Derivative financial instruments are used to hedge the financial risks to which the Group is exposed due to changes in interest rates. Therefore, the Group does not resort to financial derivative instruments for speculative purposes.
Financial instruments are used in accordance with internal policies adopted by the Board of Directors.
Derivative financial instruments are measured at their respective fair value and recognised in the heading "Other liabilities/current assets" or "Other non-current liabilities/ assets", as applicable. The method of recognition depends on the nature and purpose of their contracting.
The fair value of the derivative financial instruments is determined with reference to stock market values. If the stock market values are not available, the fair value is determined based on the analysis of discounted cash flows, which include assumptions supported on observable market prices or rates.
The possibility of classifying a derivative financial instrument as a hedging instrument follows the provisions of IAS 39 - Financial Instruments: recognition and measurement ("IAS 39"), namely relative to the respective documentation and effectiveness.
Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments classified as fair value hedges are recognised as a financial profit or loss for the year, as well as changes in the fair value of the asset or liability subject to that risk.
Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments classified as cash flow hedges are recorded under the "Hedge operation reserve" for their effective component and through financial profit or loss for their non-effective component. The values recorded under the "Hedge operation reserve" are transferred to the financial profit or loss for the year when the hedged item also has an effect on profit or loss.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument reaches maturity, is sold or exercised, or when the hedge relationship no longer meets the requirements established in "IAS 39".
The Group offers a retirement plan to its employees.
This insurance plan was established in the context of a social and incentive policy for workers and is of the exclusive initiative of the subsidiary companies where these benefits are attributed. Characterised by their voluntary nature, contributions that are deemed appropriate at any given time are subject to the sole discretion of their board of directors, taking into account the performance and economic and financial situation. Thus, the contributions made by the Group are recorded as a cost on the date when they are due.
Income tax for the year is calculated based on taxable income of the companies included in consolidation and considers deferred taxation.
The current income tax rate is calculated based on the taxable income (which differs from accounting income) of the companies included in the consolidation in accordance with the tax rules in force at the head office of each company of the Group.
Deferred taxes refer to temporary differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities for accounting purposes and their amounts for taxation purposes, as well as the resulting tax benefits obtained.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated and periodically evaluated using tax rates that are expected to be in force at the date of reversal of the temporary differences, are not discounted and are recognised as non-current assets or liabilities.
Deferred tax assets are only recorded when there are reasonable expectations of sufficient future tax profits to use them. On each reporting date, the temporary differences underlying deferred tax assets are reviewed to recognise or adjust them according to the current expectation of future recovery. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences.
A contingent asset is a possible asset derived from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or not of uncertain future events.
Contingent assets are not recognised in the consolidated financial statements but are disclosed when an inflow of future economic benefits is probable.
A contingent liability is (i) a possible liability arising from past events and whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or not of uncertain future events or (ii) a present liability which arises from past events, but which is not recognised because it is unlikely that there will be an outflow of funds or the possible outflow of funds cannot be measured reliably.
Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the consolidated financial statements but are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, unless the possibility of an outflow of funds affecting future economic benefits is remote, in which case they are not subject to disclosure.
Revenue arising from the sale of goods is recognised in the income statement when all the following conditions have been met:
Sales are recognised net of taxes, discounts and other costs incurred to realise the fair value of the amount received or receivable.
Revenue arising from services rendered is recognised in the income statement with reference to the stage of completion of services on the reporting date.
If the result of a construction contract can be estimated reasonably, the revenue and the related costs are recognised using the percentage of completion method as required by IAS 11 - Construction Contracts ("IAS 11"). According to this method, the income directly related to work in progress is recognised in the income statement according to its percentage of completion, which is determined by the ratio of costs incurred and the total estimated costs of works (costs incurred plus costs to be incurred). Differences between the income calculated through the application of this method and the issued invoices are recorded under the headings "Other current assets" or "Other current liabilities", according to the nature of the differences.
Changes in the works under a construction contract, claims and premiums are considered as they are agreed and when they can be quantified in a sufficiently reliable manner.
To make a reasonable estimate of the result of a contract, the following conditions must be met:
In order to meet with the costs to be incurred during the warranty year of the works, the Group recognises a provision to hedge this risk, which is calculated taking into account annual production and the record of past costs incurred in works during the warranty year.
If it becomes probable that the costs exceed the income of the contract, the expected loss is recognised in the income statement for the year to which it refers.
The activities developed under public service concession contracts are accounted for in accordance with IFRIC 12 - Service concession arrangements ("IFRIC 12"), which establishes the provisions to be applied in the measurement, recognition, presentation and dissemination of activities developed under public service concession contracts.
Income and costs are recorded on an accrual basis, through which they are recognised as they are generated, regardless of when they are received or paid. Income and costs whose actual value is unknown are estimated.
Differences between the amounts invoiced and the corresponding income and costs are recorded under "Other current assets" and "Other current liabilities".
Assets which are realisable and liabilities payable less than one year from the reporting date are classified, respectively, as current assets and liabilities.
Liabilities relative to which there is no unconditional right to defer their payment for a period of at least twelve months after the reporting date are also classified as current.
On each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired.
In the case of financial assets classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the instrument below its cost is considered as an indicator that the instruments are impaired. If such evidence exists for financial assets classified as available for sale, the accumulated loss (measured as the difference between its acquisition cost and present fair value, minus any impairment loss already recognised through profit and loss) is removed from equity and recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses of equity instruments recognised through profit or loss are not reversed through the income statement.
Impairment losses are recorded whenever there are clear indicators that the Group will not be able to collect all the amounts to which it is entitled, in accordance with the original terms of the established contracts. Various indicators are used to identify them, such as:
Impairment losses are measured by the difference between the recoverable amount and the financial position value of the financial asset and recognised through profit or loss. Whenever a certain amount is considered as uncollectible it is written-off through the respective accumulated impairment loss. Subsequent recoveries of amounts that have been written-off are recognised through profit or loss.
Non-current assets (or discontinued operations) are classified as held for sale whenever it is determined that their value will be recovered through their sale and not through
their continued use. This situation is considered to occur only when: (i) the sale is highly probable; (ii) the asset is available for sale immediately in its current conditions; (iii) the management is committed to a sales plan and, (iv) it is expected that the sale will take place within the period of twelve months.
Non-current assets (or discontinued operations) classified as held for sale are measured at the lowest value of their book value and respective fair value minus the costs of their sale.
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to the ordinary shareholders of TD, S.A. by the weighted average number of shares in circulation during the year.
Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to the ordinary shareholders of TD, S.A. by the weighted average number of shares in circulation during the year, adjusted by potential ordinary diluting shares.
Potential ordinary diluting shares can result from options over shares and other financial instruments issued by the Group, convertible into shares of the Company.
Events occurring after the reporting date that provide additional information about conditions that existed on the reporting date are duly reflected in the consolidated financial statements.
Events occurring after the reporting date that provide additional information on conditions that occurred after the reporting date are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
During the year ended on 31 December 2013, there were no alterations to the accounting policies in relation to those considered in the preparation of the financial information relative to the year ended on 31 December 2012, including new standards and interpretations, amendments or revisions approved by the European Union, of impact on the Consolidated Financial Position or Consolidated Net Income of the operations, and no significant material errors or alterations made to accounting estimates were recorded relative to previous years.

As at 31 December 2012, the reported values correspond to the recording of impairments of "Financial assets available for sale" of 26,596 thousand euros and the divestment of subscription rights of "Banco Comercial Português, S.A." of 11,325 thousand euros.
(a) The earnings from associates relative to the year ended on 31 December 2013 include the effect of the application of the equity method to the investments in associates of (370) thousand euros (7,949 thousand euros as at 31 December 2012) (Note 23).
During the year ended on 31 December 2013, the Group sold 20% of the share capital of "VOTORANTIM Macau Investimentos, S.A." for the value of 11,668 thousand euros (Note 30), having recorded capital gains of 271 thousand euros.
During the year ended on 31 December 2012, there was a merger operation involving "ALVORADA PETRÓLEO, S.A." which gave rise to "ALVOPETRO, S.A.", which was henceforth also 43.2% held by the Group. Also during 2012, the Group sold "ALVOPETRO, S.A.", recording capital gains of 5,634 thousand euros.
Furthermore, the Group sold its preferred shares in "ALVORADA PETRÓLEO, S.A.", recording capital gains of 35 thousand euros, and also recorded an impairment loss relative the stake held in "ALVORADA PETRÓLEO, S.A.", with an impact on the financial results of 5,726 thousand euros.
During the year ended on 31 December 2013, interest was capitalised in the acquisition cost of qualifying assets of the total value of 956 thousand euros (550 thousand euros as at 31 December 2012). For the purposes of the capitalisation of financial costs associated to the acquisition cost of the qualifying assets, an average rate of 7% was used as at 31 December 2013 (5.2% as at 31 December 2012).
"TD, S.A." and most of the companies in which it has a stake based in Portugal, are subject to Corporate Income Tax (IRC) at the rate of 25%. Entities which record taxable profit are also subject to the Municipal Surcharge, whose rate may vary to the maximum of 1.5%, as well as the State Surcharge, incident on the portion of taxable profit in excess of 1,500,000 euros and 7,500,000 euros, at the rates of 3% and 5%, respectively. Regardless of the profit for tax purposes recorded for the year, the entities referred to above are also subject to autonomous taxation on the expenses and at the rates established in article 88 of the Corporate Income Tax Code.
For the calculation of the taxable profit, to which the aforesaid tax rates are applied, after deduction of the tax losses carried forward, non-acceptable amounts for tax purposes are added to and/or subtracted from the book value profit. These differences between the book value profit or loss and the profit or loss for tax purposes may be of a temporary or permanent nature.
"TD, S.A." and the companies in which it, directly or indirectly, holds a stake of at at least 90% of their capital, provided that this confers the Company over 50% of the voting rights, with head office and effective management located in Portugal, are taxed under the special taxation scheme for groups of companies (RETGS). This scheme consists of the aggregation of the taxable assets and liabilities of all the companies included in the consolidation perimeter, as provided in article 63 of the Corporate Income Tax Code, with the application of the IRC rate to the overall amount obtained in this manner, after deduction of the tax losses carried forward. The value of tax calculated in this form is increased by the Municipal and State Surcharge, if applicable, calculated individually and at the rates referred to above, as well as by the autonomous taxation calculated for each company.
Pursuant to the legislation in force, tax returns in Portugal may be reviewed and corrected by the tax authorities for a period, in general, of four years (five years for Social Security).
The Board of Directors believes that any corrections which might arise from any tax reviews/inspections to these tax returns will not significantly affect the consolidated financial statements reported as at 31 December 2013.
The Group records deferred taxes corresponding to the temporary differences between the book value of the assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax base, as laid down in IAS 12 - Income Tax (Note 27).
| 2013 | 2012 | |
|---|---|---|

| Deferred tax (Note 27): | 104,241 | 18,129 |
| 51,947 | (37,125) |
In addition to the amounts of deferred taxes recorded directly in the income statement, deferred taxes amounting to (6,836) thousand euros were recorded directly in equity for the year ended on 31 December 2013 (443 thousand euros as at 31 December 2012) (Note 27).
Law number 2/2014, of 16 January, which reformed the taxation of companies, and amended the Corporate Income Tax Code (IRC Code), namely with respect to the applicable IRC rate, which changed from 25% to 23%, and the creation of an additional bracket to the State Surcharge in which a rate of 7% is applied to the portion of the taxable profit of each company which is higher than 35,000 thousand euros, as well as regarding the form of taxation of capital gains and losses related to the onerous transfers of holdings.
Accordingly, when applicable, the Group corrected the recorded deferred tax assets, in particular:
Earnings per share for the years ended on 31 December 2013 and 2012 were calculated taking into account the following amounts:
| 2013 | 2012 | |
|---|---|---|
| Earnings for the effect of calculating net earnings per basic share (net income for the year) | 63,974 | 24,003 |
| Weighted average number of shares for the effect of calculating earnings per basic share (thousand) | 420,000 | 420,000 |
| Earnings per basic share | 0.15 | 0.06 |
Since, for the financial years ended on 31 December 2013 and 2012, there were no dilution effects of the earnings per share, the diluted earnings per share are the same as the basic earnings per share.
The General Meeting of Shareholders, held on 25 May 2013, deliberated the distribution of dividends of the value of 6,300 thousand euros, corresponding to 0.015 euros per share, which was paid-up in June 2013, taking into consideration the separate financial statements of the Company as at 31 December 2012.
During the year ended on 31 December 2012 there was no deliberation or payment of dividends.
During the years ended on 31 December 2013 and 2012, the movement which occurred in the values of goodwill calculated upon the acquisition of subsidiaries or jointly controlled companies, as well as in the respective impairment losses were as follows:

The goodwill relative to the associates is an integral part of the values of the corresponding investments and is disclosed in Note 23.
The values of goodwill are tested annually for impairment or whenever there are indications that they might be impaired.
The recoverable amount of the cash-generating units to which goodwill is allocated is determined based on the calculation of its use value, which uses cash flow forecasts
based on the latest financial forecasts approved by the respective Boards of Directors over a period of five years, discounted by the discount rates shown in the table below, which were calculated based on the weighted average cost of capital (WACC), adjusted for risks, specific to the market in which each unit is placed. Cash flows beyond this five-year period were forecast using the rates specified in the same table. These rates do not exceed the average long-term growth for the markets in which those cashgenerating units are allocated.
The Boards of Directors believe that any reasonably possible change in the key assumptions on which the recoverable amount is based would not cause the book value of these cash-generating units to exceed its recoverable amount.

The income gained from investment property arising from operating leasing contracts reached EUR 33,765 thousand for the financial year ended on 31 December 2013 (EUR 42,773 thousand as at 31 December 2012). For the financial year ended on 31 December 2013, direct operating costs related to investment properties reached EUR 6,521 thousand (EUR 6,411 thousand as at 31 December 2012).
The fair value of each operational investment property is periodically determined through assessments, in most cases made by specialised and independent entities and in accordance with the evaluation methodologies generally accepted for the real estate market, namely income methods, comparatively with market prices or replacement costs, depending on the specific situations of each property.
In the remaining cases, the determination of the market value is carried out internally, based on criteria similar to those considered by external valuators, taking into account the expected discounted cash flows.
The main assumptions and methods inherent to the valuations supporting the market value of the investment properties were as follows:
IAS 40 - Investment property ("IAS 40") does not require the determination fair value of investment properties on the basis of a valuation made by an independent valuator. However, approximately 84% of the fair value of the Group's investment properties is determined through independent valuators with significant and recognised professional qualification (registered at the CMVM) and with recent experience in the location and category of the valued investment property. These valuators have applied methods currently used in this market, based on the use of the income method, replacement cost method or market price comparisons, according to the specific situations of each property. Considering that the assets are leased, the income method was used, but also taking into account the other methods used to assess the reasonableness of the results achieved through this method. According to this method, the income of the current leasing contracts under the current conditions was used and, once the year of these contracts had ended, a yield adapted to each property was used. For the rest of the valuations carried out internally, yields adapted according to the indications given by independent professionals were used.

As at 31 December 2013 and 2012, the Group had contracted a derivative financial instrument to minimise the risks of exposure to changes in interest rate, consisting of an interest rate swap contract.
These instruments are contracted by considering the risks affecting the assets and liabilities and after checking which instruments available on the market are the most appropriate to cover these risks.
These operations, the contracting of which is subject to prior approval by the Board of Directors, are permanently monitored, particularly through the analysis of various indicators relative to these instruments, mainly the trend of their market value and sensitivity of the forecast cash flows and of the actual market value to changes in key variables that condition the structures, for the purpose of evaluating their financial effects.
Derivative financial instruments are recorded in accordance with the provisions of "IAS 39" and measured at fair value, which is based on assessments made by financial institutions. The existing derivative financial instrument as at 31 December 2013 and 2012 was assessed by an independent company external to the Group through appropriate methodologies and techniques, commonly used by the experts for each type of instrument contracted by the Group.
These are qualified as hedge instruments or instruments held for trading, pursuant to the provisions in "IAS 39".
As at 31 December 2013 and 2012, an interest rate swap had been contracted at a fixed rate, which will fall due on 1 July 2033, for the purpose of hedging against the risk of interest rate volatility of the loan contracted with Caixa Banco de Investimento, S.A. and Caixa Geral de Depósitos, S.A. indicated in Note 36.
The fair value of this instrument as at 31 December 2013 and 2012 reached 11,000 thousand euros and 14,981 thousand euros, respectively, unfavourable to the Group, which is recognised in the heading of Other non-current liabilities (Note 40).
In view of the provisions of IAS 39, this instrument was initially recorded as a trading derivative financial instrument since it does not meet all of the requirements for the application of hedge accounting. The changes in the fair value of this trading instruments were, up to this date, recorded directly in the income statements of the periods when they occurred.
As of 1 January 2010, these requirements were met and, therefore, the derivative was then recorded as a cash flow hedge. Hence, during the years ended on 31 December 2013 and 2012, the effective component of the change of the hedge instrument was recognised under the Hedge operation reserve, at the value of 2,706 thousand euros and (2,453) thousand euros, net of the tax effect, respectively.

The main information underlying the determination of the fair value of this instrument as at 31 December 2013 was as follows:
Following various inspections conducted by the Taxation and Customs Authority (AT) to the accounts of TEIXEIRA DUARTE - Gestão de Participações Investimentos Imobiliários, S.A. ("TDGPII, S.A."), a company 100% held indirectly by TEIXEIRA DUARTE, S.A. relative to the financial years of 2007 to 2011, the following corrections were made to the tax losses that had initially been reported for this participated company:
| Year | Calculated tax loss | AT correction |
|---|---|---|
| 2007 | 46,632 | 29,331 |
| 2008 | 50,590 | 45,938 |
| 2009 | 50,182 | 24,807 |
| 2010 | 18,165 | 6,467 |
| 2011 | 12,779 | 3,213 |
With the exception of the amount of 611 thousand euros, included in the correction to the tax loss for 2008 (relative, according to the AT, to the undue application of number 10 of article 22 of the EBF to the distribution of income by the TDF Closed Real Estate Investment Fund), these corrections arise entirely from the non-acceptance, as a tax cost, of the financial costs incurred with the investment made in companies in which the Group has a stake under the form of additional paid-in capital.
Since "TDGPII S.A." is subject to corporate income tax (IRC) in accordance with the special taxation scheme for groups of companies (RETGS) (article 69 and following of the IRC Code), the corrections to the tax losses of the financial years of 2008 and 2009 were the object of Statements of Payment of IRC and compensatory interest issued to the controlling company, TEIXEIRA DUARTE - Engenharia e Construções, S.A., which filed judicial reviews at the Administrative and Fiscal Court of Sintra.
During 2013, "TD-EC, SA", as the controlling company, was notified of the Report of Conclusions for the financial year of 2010 and consequent additional Statements of Payment of IRC and compensatory interest associated to the corrections for the financial year of 2010. The Company is currently preparing the corresponding objection, considering the applicable legal periods.
Notwithstanding the unfavourable outcome to the claims of "TDGPII, S.A." and, consequently, the controlling company, under the proceedings relative to the financial year of 2006, the Board of Directors continues to expect a different outcome for the other financial years under court proceedings.
It should be noted that the Statement of Payment of IRC and compensatory interest for the financial year of 2008 issued to "TD-EC, S.A.", as the controlling company, apart from the corrections described above relative to the participated company "TDGPII, S.A.", also includes a correction to the taxable profit calculated at an individual level for "TD-EC, S.A.".
The total amount of corrections to taxable profit reached 35,467 thousand euros, of which "TD-EC, S.A." objected to 32,595 thousand euros, related to tax credit, the system of re-investment of tax gains and the undue application of number 10 of article 22 of the EBF.
The correction relative to the financial year of 2011 for the participated company "TDGPII, S.A." had not been the object of any additional payment required by the controlling company, as at the closing date of December 2013.

As at 31 December de 2013 and 2012, factoring contracts without right of recourse were in force, which were recorded as reductions in accounts receivable of the value of 99,829 thousand euros and 118,876 thousand euros, respectively. According to the contractual conditions, the Group's liability is essentially restricted to the guaranteed acceptance of the invoices object of the factoring on the part of the customers.
As at 31 December 2013 and 2012, there were no inventories pledged as security for liabilities.
The Group is exposed to a number of financial risks arising from its activities, among which the following deserve special mention:
The Group's Financial Department ensures the centralised management of the financing operations, applications of cash surplus, currency conversion transactions, as well as the counterpart risk of the Group. In addition to the above, it is responsible for identifying, measuring, proposing and implementing measures to manage/mitigate the financial risks to which the Group is exposed.
The main financial risks to which the Group is exposed and the main measures implemented to manage them are analysed in greater detail below.
The objective of the interest rate risk management policy is the minimisation of the cost of debt subject to the maintenance of a low level of volatility of financial costs.
As at 31 December 2013, 86% of the financial liabilities had a variable interest rate (85% as at 31 December 2013) and 14% had a fixed interest rate (15% as at 31 December 2012).
Had the market interest rates been higher (lower) by 1% during the years ended on 31 December 2013 and 2012, the financial profit/(loss) of these years would have (decreased) increased by EUR (13,463) / 13,463 thousand and EUR (8,339) / 8,339 thousand, respectively.
The Group's operating activities are exposed to variations in the euro exchange rate against other currencies.
Moreover, considering the different countries in which the Group operates, its exposure to exchange rate risk arises from the fact that its subsidiaries report their assets and liabilities in currencies other than the reporting currency, namely in Angola, Algeria, Brazil, Macao, Morocco, Mozambique, Namibia, Russia and Venezuela.
The exchange rate risk management policy followed by the Group is ultimately aimed at reducing the sensitivity of the Group's net income to currency fluctuations.

The Board of Directors considers that the sensitivity analysis presented above, based on the position on the stated dates, may not be representative of the exchange rate risk exposure to which the Group is subject throughout the year.
Credit risk is primarily related to the balances receivable from customers and other receivables related to the Group's operating activities. The deterioration of global economic conditions or adversities that affect the economies on a local, national or international scale may result in the inability of the Group's customers to meet their obligations, with possible negative effects on the Group.
This risk is monitored on a regular basis by each of the Group's businesses for the purpose of:
As at 31 December 2013 and 2012, the Board of Directors believes that the estimated impairment losses of the accounts receivable are adequately disclosed in the financial statements.
As at 31 December 2013 and 2012, the accounts receivable from customers (Note 28) for which no impairment losses were recorded, because the Board of Directors considered that they are achievable, are as follows:
| 2013 | 2012 | |
|---|---|---|
| Balances | ||
| Not due | 204,584 | 200,126 |
| Up to 180 days | 136,392 | 165,313 |
| 180 to 360 days | 31,796 | 40,184 |
| Over 360 days | 172,757 | 129,319 |
| 545,529 534,942 |
The credit quality of the accounts receivable which are not yet due included in the table above is monitored on a regular basis, based on the objectives described above.
This risk can occur if the sources of financing, such as the cash flows from operating activities, divestment, credit lines and from financing operations, do not meet the financing needs, such as the cash outflows for operating activities and financing, investments, remuneration of shareholders and debt repayment.
In order to mitigate this risk, the Group seeks to maintain a liquidity position and an average maturity of debt that allows it to repay its debt within reasonable periods of time.
Financial liabilities maturing within one year are replaced with medium and long term maturities as deemed appropriate.
The maturity of the financial liabilities as at 31 December 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

The table below presents the Group's assets and liabilities measured at fair value as at 31 December 2013, according to the following hierarchical levels of fair value:

Except with respect to non-current loans, most financial assets and liabilities mature in the short term, hence it is considered that their fair value is identical to the respective book values.
Regarding loans, as demonstrated in Note 36, most loans are taken out at variable interest rates. Therefore, it is deemed that the corresponding book value (amortised cost) does not differ significantly from the corresponding market value.
