The Consolidated Net Profit Attributable to Shareholders was 33,653 thousand euros, representing a significant drop comparing to 2014, to which some defining factors that we believe important to note have contributed.

It is important to note that, in addition to the performance achieved by the Group's companies in the same period, this indicator was influenced by the currency conversion differences, which in 2015 were positive by 10,503 thousand euros, while in 2014 they were positive by 21,418 thousand euros.

The negative impact of the impairment loss of shareholding in "Banco Comercial Português, S.A." in 2015 was 8,104 thousand euros while in 2014 the same shareholding was 6,534 thousand euros.

The 2015 results were still negatively influenced by the impairment loss of "C+P.A. – Cimento e Produtos Associados, S.A." by the amount of 7,806 thousand euros and by the constitution of provisions for other risks, namely, market risks where the Group is active, for the amount of 6,650 thousand euros.

Finally, it is important to note that the circumstance of the 2014 results were influenced by other factors not occurring in 2015, such as the positive impacts resulting from the profit in the acquisition of "TEGAVEN - Teixeira Duarte y Asociados, C.A." of 29,331 thousand euros and the alienation of the rights of "Banco Comercial Português, S.A." at the amount of 16,992 thousand euros.

The Turnover reached 1,411,906 thousand euros, which reflects a decrease of 15.9% compared to 2014, that is, a drop of 267,816 thousand euros, being important to note here the following essential factors of framework, whose amounts totaled 203,530 thousand euros:

  • Still in the first quarter of 2015, the Group alienated the shares it held in "PETRIN, S.A." through which Teixeira Duarte operated in the commercialization of liquid fuel in Portugal – which had contributed 45,299 thousand euros to the Turnover determined in 2014;
  • In the fourth quarter of 2015, the Group alienated the shares it held in "EVA, S.A." and "ROCHORIENTAL, S.A." – two companies that integrated in the Group's hotel service activity – which had contributed 5,305 thousand euros to the Turnover determined in 2014;
  • In the Venezuelan market, a decrease in the turnover was registered at 258,273 thousand euros, which is mainly due to the adoption of the SIMADI exchange rate, which changed the relevance in euros of the Turnover calculated in 2015 in that market to 152,926 thousand euros.

One more note on this indicator, in regards to its variation in the Portuguese market, to inform that, despite the alluded impact of the alienations of "PETRIN, S.A.", "EVA, S.A." and "ROCHORIENTAL, S.A.", Portugal, in 2015, registered similar amounts as those of 2014, being that, not taking into account these three extraordinary factors, the Turnover would have increased in Portugal by 29.8%.

The other markets, that already represented 86.9% of this indicator last year, globally decreased 18.3%, shifting to represent 84.4% of the total Turnover of the Teixeira Duarte Group.

Turnover by Country

(Values in thousand euros)

The negative variation of this indicator in Venezuela in 2015 is essentially due to the alluded change of exchange rate – from SICAD to SIMADI –, being that, not considering this effect, the Turnover of the Group in this country would have reached the amount of 179,436 thousand euros.

An analysis of this indicator is illustrated considering its development by activity sector:

Turnover of Construction

The Turnover of Construction decreased 15.7% year-on-year.

Portugal recorded a rise of 68% compared to 2014, essentially due to the activity carried out in the Marão Tunnel works.

In other markets, verified rises were noted in Algeria and in Mozambique, with increases of 27.2% and 231.1%, respectively, such rises however did not compensate for the drops registered in Angola, Brazil and Venezuela. Remember that, in the above case, the adoption of the new exchange rate had a negative impact on this indicator by 152,926 thousand euros, for which, despite the drop in Turnover, in the financial year 2015 an effective increase of activity in the Group's construction sector was verified at 4.9%.

In 2015 the foreign market accounted for 81.3% of Construction turnover.

Turnover of Concessions and Services

In Concessions and Services, Turnover grew by 14.2% compared to 2014, with good performance in Portugal and Angola, where the attraction of new customers, essentially in the area of Facilities Management, enabled an increase of 26.3% and 13.4%, respectively, in comparison to the same period in 2014.

Turnover of Real Estate

Real Estate fell 11.1% as a whole, relative to 2014.

In Portugal it declined by 13% year-onyear, while in Brazil the previously launched enterprise development phase allowed for an effective increase of 2.8% compared with the same period last year.

Brazil recorded a 13.3% drop year-on-year, penalized by the devaluation of the Brazilian Real.

The Turnover of Hotel Services decreased 11.1% as a whole year-onyear.

In Angola, despite the more adverse market conditions, the drop was 0.7% in relation to 2014.

In Mozambique, a decline of 12.5% year-on-year was recorded, while in Portugal a decrease was recorded at 38.1% in relation to 2014. Remember that two hotel units were alienated in Portugal, which had contributed to the 2014 Turnover of 5,305 thousand euros.

Distribution recorded an increase of 6.8% in relation to last year.

In Angola, in the period in analysis, a pharmaceutical products commercialization operation started, with the opening of two points of sale in the metropolitan area of Luanda, as well as the consolidation of business units in other areas of this Sector.

The behavior of the Construction sector was especially penalized in this period by the circumstances verified in the different phases of execution of works in the period in analysis year-on-year. While in 2014, several expressive works – in Angola and Venezuela they were in the conclusion phase with a significant volume of executed work, in the financial year 2015 important works being executed in Algeria were in an initial phase, with reduced degree of conclusion and with less impacted on turnover.

In conclusion, and notwithstanding any additional information that might be included in the management report disclosed at the end of April, it is considered appropriate to provide some information on the general outlook for the Construction sector:

It is expected that in 2016 there will be growth of activity in various countries of importance in Teixeira Duarte's action abroad.

Notwithstanding any new contracts that may arise, the Group has assured adequate business levels in construction in foreign markets, which allow, despite the Teixeira Duarte Group's Order Book for the construction sector having decreased by 7.4% compared to the end of 2014, the same has reached, as a whole, 2,232,772 thousand euros by 31 December 2015, of which 847,574 thousand euros are for 2019 and onward.
