01 | MARTIFER GROUP MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD Dear Shareholders,

The past few years, and 2014 in particular, were especially difficult for the companies in the construction segment and, particularly, for Martifer.

However, we have been taking measures to overcome the difficulties faced during these last years.

In 2014, we continued to follow the strategy of selling non-core assets, having concluded the sale of the participation in Nutre, and we initiated the process of selling Martifer Solar, which we expect to be settled in 2015.

In the metallic construction area in 2014:

We increased equity; We endowed the Group, through West Sea, with an infrastructure that allows the pursuit of new opportunities in the naval

segment; We entered a new market, Algeria, having been awarded the “Djelfa” project.

In the RE Developer area:

We completed the sale of Rosa dos Ventos in Brazil, and signed a conditional sale agreement of the Gizalki wind farm in Poland to Ikea Group;

We leveraged the project Ventinveste with the financing obtained for project Âncora.

Keeping in mind the steps taken throughout the year, we are more focused on the main goals defined in the Group’s strategy:

Reinforcement of the international presence, focusing on three core geographies (Europe and the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America) and on attractive opportunities with high profitability;

Focus on the metallic construction core business (metal mechanical construction, aluminium and glass façades, infrastructures for oil & gas, and naval industry);

Adoption of a new organizational model:

Resizing and readapting the structure, aligning it with the international presence;

Improvement of the business processes and operational efficiency;

Development and retention of human resources;

Optimization of the industrial footprint and adjustment of production layouts; Improvement of the Group’s financial situation:

Divestment in non-core businesses and sale of real estate assets;

Reduction of cash costs, through a program for the optimization of the cost structure and the working capital;

Gradual decrease of the net debt and the debt/EBITDA ratio;

Adequacy of the inflows maturity of the operational activity and investment (divestment) to the outflows of the financing activity.

We believe that the strategy we have defined will lead, in the future, to an improvement in the Group’s profitability.

Stakeholders, we thank you once again for the trust placed in us.

With the changes in the governance model implemented in 2012, Martifer S.G.P.S., S.A. positions itself as a financial holding, establishing and defining rules and policies for the Group and monitoring the activity of the business areas, which were given a greater degree of independence and power.

The business areas act independently, although they follow the strategic guidelines defined at the holding level, with the annual budgets and business plans approved by Martifer’s executive board members.

At the end of the year, the Holding and the support services had 50 employees.

METALLIC CONSTRUCTION

Martifer Metallic Constructions is a player with global recognition in the sector.

Martifer Solar is awarded its first contract in Brazil: a PV installation with 300 kW in a General Motors plant in Joinville, State of Santa Catarina. The company also continues its internationalization process entering Ukraine, Romania and Mexico.

2013

In 2013, Martifer Solar builds Latin America’s largest PV plant (30 MW) in Mexico. The company was in charge of the Engineering, Procurement and Construction of the plant and was also responsible for the following O&M services.

Martifer Renewables concluded the third wind farm in Poland (Rymanów) for Ikea Group. The farm with 26 MWp was inaugurated in June.

In November, following an international public tender, Martifer Energy Systems and Navalria, Martifer Group’s subsidiaries, are awarded the subconcession of the lands and the infrastructures of ENVC.

2014

In the beginning of the year, Martifer signs the contract for the subconcession of the lands and the infrastructures of the old Viana do Castelo Shipyard (ENVC). It is in May that West Sea, the company created by Martifer to administer the subconcession, starts operating in Viana do Castelo. At the end of the year, West Sea signs the first shipbuilding contract.

Also in 2014, Brazil hosts the FIFA World Cup. Martifer Metallic Constructions participated in the construction of three stadiums:

Arena Fonte Nova (Salvador da Bahía), Arena Castelão (Fortaleza) and Arena da Amazônia (Manaus). Martifer Solar was also present in this event, with the installation of the PV roof of the Mineirão Stadium, in Belo Horizonte.

GLOBAL ECONOMY

Economic Growth

Recent projections for global economic growth aim for a greater growth in 2015, when compared to 2014 – 3.5 % versus 3.3 % observed throughout the last year. However, the distinction, in terms of evolution, between developed and emerging countries is clear, having on the one hand emerging economies significantly contributing to world growth and, on the other hand other economies presenting less robust growth. In fact, contrasting with the evident stagnation in the European Union, emerging countries and the United States have been showing strong and consistent growth. These countries present themselves as the main opportunity both for growth and for the development of new projects.

The current scenario, strongly affected by the price drop in the energy sector as well as other commodities, leads to a second

and important difference: raw materials’ importing countries and exporting countries. Importing countries benefit from relatively lower prices and due to these lower prices exporting countries reduce their total revenues.

Taking this into account, developed economies, namely the European Union, are interested in promoting measures that increase their commercial competitiveness towards the rest of the world. In fact, policies carried out by the European Central Bank (ECB) have been strongly pushing Europe’s common currency, which in 2014 depreciated 11 % in relation to the US Dollar.

Currency depreciation is an important stimulus to exports, since it allows the economies to be more competitive, presenting slightly cheaper terms of trade than in the inverse situation. Together with this, the decreasing trend of the raw materials price also reduces the level of resources needed to import.

The ECB also lowered, in 2014, interest rates to historical lows, which, for the corporate sector, means a significant reduction in financing costs, being an opportunity to carry out new ventures and projects that could have been unapproachable until then.

In summary:

1. Euro depreciation expected for 2015.

2. Reference interest rates in historical lows.

3. Drop in oil price to 2009 lows.

4. Projection of a 1.5 % growth for Portugal.

5. Renegotiation of sovereign debt of European countries in difficulties, namely Greece, which will reduce instability about the future of the common currency and will stop pressuring the market negatively, for example, the yields of issued debt.

6. Exit of troika from Portugal, having the country reached positive results throughout the entire adjustment program.

7. Optimistic forecast for inflation of 1.1 %, which leads to believe that deflationary tensions will be surpassed in 2015, as well as a substantial reduction in unemployment, which has been gradually reducing since 2013.

8. Bond yields dropped to historical lows, with investors returning to sovereign debt.

THE PULSE OF PORTUGAL

Portugal left with success, in May 2014, the adjustment plan outlined by troika, having presented signs of economic recovery by the end of the third quarter. GDP showed an increase above expected and unemployment decreased. These factors lead to believe that Portugal, despite the adversities, has the potential to grow and surpass obstacles.

The European Commission and the Monetary Fund praised the performance of the Portuguese economy several times throughout the adjustment plan.

According to the Economic Bulletin issued in December 2014 by Banco de Portugal (the Portuguese Central Bank), there are several indicators that show the good performance:

Recovery of confidence indicators in 2014, becoming positive for all the sectors in the Portuguese economy;

The contribution of the total internal and external investment for the GDP growth stopped being negative, to become

positive, signalling, on one hand the strong attractiveness of the Portuguese economy to foreign investment and on the

other hand, the recovery in terms of internal investment;

In 2014, the contribution from the volume of imports to GDP growth decreased, and the contribution from exports

increased, revealing that, in this area, Portugal shows strength for the coming years. It is projected that they will continue

to grow in 2015 and 2016, with highlight to service and goods exports, excluding energy;

For the next 2 years, Banco de Portugal estimates that private consumption, as well as real disposable income, will

increase substantially in the country compared to the last 6 years.

Therefore, after the severe adjustment plan faced by the country which demanded important sacrifices and which we successfully left the forecasts are beyond positive for the next years.

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 29

According to recent developments, the main risk for the European Union member countries relates to deflation threats. It is important for the economies to avoid, at all costs, deflationary situations, otherwise, they can enter a recessive spiral. The European Central Bank, entity in charge of the EU monetary policy and of the compliance with the goal of inflation under but close to 2 %, is currently preparing an important Quantitative Easing program that aims to relieve matters related to European sovereign debts as well as to counter the deflationary trends through a significant liquidity injection.

Despite having complied with the goals for 2014, Portugal needs to continue to demonstrate excellence and integrity throughout 2015, so progress continues to be seen and accumulate.

Business Environment

For 2015, we can foresee an improvement in business environment, since, on one hand, a world GDP increase is forecasted and on the other hand, because an increase in international businesses is expected. The fact that global economies are jointly growing at a 3.8 % pace signals an increase in the demand of goods and services in prospect and consequently, an increase in the number of deals made. The increase in international deals is closely related to globalization, since, as we previously indicated, in scenarios like this, the companies’ growth strategies include emerging countries.

However, the following items are identified as the main risks for 2015:

a. European Central Bank not being successful in fighting the deflation threat that haunted European economies in the last quarter of 2014.

b. Enforcement of advanced commercial protectionist measures among countries that include taxation of imports and / or exports and that, by reducing free circulation, create barriers to transactions and commercial relations between companies of different countries.

c. Recurrent conflicts between Russia and Ukraine, as well as in Syria, constituting sources of political instability in these countries and in neighbouring ones.

d. Deceleration of emerging economies.

03 | FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE INTRODUCTORY NOTE In September 2014, the Group started to classify the solar business unit (consisting of Martifer Solar, SA and its subsidiaries) as a non current asset held for sale. This change resulted from the fact that Martifer is presently putting into action its plan to sell its economic interest (currently 55 %) in Martifer Solar.

Since the requirements of IFRS 5 are fulfilled, the contribution to Martifer’s consolidated results coming from this segment is presented in an autonomous line in the Consolidated P&L and the values YoY were adjusted to allow comparison. The contribution of assets and liabilities of the operational unit, classified as held for sale, are also presented in separate lines from the Group’s remaining consolidated assets and liabilities on 31st December 2014.

The breakdown of these contributions is included in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

In 2014, the total Operating Revenues were 29 % lower than in 2013, reaching 226 million euros, of which 201 million in Metallic Constructions and 25 million euros as RE Developer.

The Revenues as RE Developer – 25 million euros – include the significant contribution of the revenues from the sale of renewable assets, mainly wind farms, continuing the asset rotation strategy.

Sales and services rendered in Metallic Constructions are still penalized by the strong recession in the construction sector, particularly in Europe, which the Group has been trying to overturn through internationalization, clearly turning to emerging countries, which presented themselves as the engine for construction worldwide.

As can be verified in the chart below, Portugal represents only 24 % of the total sales and services rendered, with the remaining 76 % resulting from four different regions: the European Union (excluding Portugal) – 32 %, Angola – 13 %, Brazil – 25 % and Saudi Arabia – 6 %.

In 2014, the Consolidated EBITDA reflects a significant decrease, when compared with 2013, from 16 million euros to 6 million euros. This decrease in the EBITDA results mainly from the reduction of the EBITDA as RE Developer, which had significantly contributed to the Group’s EBITDA in 2013, with the sales of wind farms consummated in that financial year.

In Metallic Constructions, the EBITDA at the end of 2014 amounted to -7 million euros, which compare with 19 million euros in 2013, showing therefore a significant improvement. This area is still strongly affected by thr recession in the construction sector, particularly in Europe, with direct consequences in margins. Additional unexpected costs in projects also negatively contributed to the performance in the period.

As RE Developer, the EBITDA recorded 13 million euros, with a 52 % margin vs. an 80 % margin YoY and results mainly from the sale of wind farms.

Depreciation & Amortization remained practically unchanged, reaching 15 million euros. Provisions and impairment losses for fixed assets registered 39 million euros, which compare with 28 million euros in the previous year.

Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT) reached -47 million euros, which compares with -27 million euros in 2013.

Net Financial Expenses totalled 19 million euros, comparing with 34 million euros in the previous year. Net interest expense was 22 million euros, net foreign exchange was positive in 3 million euros.

Net Profit in 2014 was negative in 137 million euros (-71 million euros in 2013), strongly penalized by the discontinued operations’ result (-65 million euros, corresponding to Martifer Solar’s consolidated net profit contribution to the Group).

Net Profit attributable to shareholders was -94 million euros, which compares with -69 million euros in 2013.

The Group continues focused on the Net Debt reduction process, so it will continue to be committed in the process of selling non-core assets: solar segment, wind farms and residually the sale of real estate projects, throughout 2015.

Additionally, and considering the medium / long term nature of the investments made, the Group has sought to restructure its debt so it can follow the maturity of the associated assets, not jeopardising the obligations arising from its operational short term activity.

Therefore, the Group expects to adequate the inflows maturity of the operational activity and investment (divestment) to the outflows of the financing activity.

By the end of 2014, the Group tried, with the main financial institutions, to restructure its debt by rescheduling maturities over time, extending the average loan maturity to make it more coincident with the permanence of its long term assets and to have a maturity that allows the cash surpluses to be sufficient to comply with its obligations.

The Group expects to conclude the negotiation process throughout the first half of 2015.

• According to the Euroconstruct’s analysis, published in November 2014, after 7 years of severe recession in the construction sector, period during which it lost around 21 % of volume, a significant recovery is expected from 2015 onwards in Europe.

• Also according to Euroconstruct and to forecasts of global growth, it is expected that, despite being slow, the growth in the construction sector will be gradual. However, forecasts aim firstly to a growth below global economic recovery and afterwards the inverse situation.

• Recovery is highlighted especially in the construction / civil engineering sub-sector, which contrasts with the residential and non-residential sub-sectors that still present some difficulties.

• The scenario is different depending on the territory. For Eastern Europe it is expected an around 3.0 % growth in the next years, having presented a 4.8 % growth in 2014. Western countries will, however, have a less robust growth.

44 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

Revenues in the Metallic Constructions segment reached 201 million euros in 2014, resulting from the difficulties in the sector, especially in Europe, in spite of the effort that the Group has been making with internationalization and focusing on countries with economic growth and an infrastructure investment plan.

The sales and services rendered in this segment are still focused on the external market.

The EBITDA at the end of 2013 amounted to -7 million euros, which compares with -19 million euros in 2013. EBITDA in 2014 was not only affected by the deterioration of the market conditions in Europe (with effects on margins), but also by the entrance costs in new markets and delays in some projects.

The negative EBIT in 51 million euros registered in 2014 is negatively affected by provisions and impairment losses for onerous contracts in 2014.

The Net Financial Expenses in 2014 reached 17 million euros (15 million euros in 2013).

The Net Profit at the end of the year 2014 totalled -68 million euros, of which 0.3 million euros are attributable to non-controlling interests.

The Net Financial Debt in the Metallic Constructions area on 31 st December 2014 reached 114 million euros, 13 million euros less than on 31 st December 2013.

The total CAPEX at the end of 2014 reached 13 million euros, a value that corresponds to investments in infrastructures continuing the internationalization strategy.

46 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

ACTIVITY

RE Developer currently has 49 MW of wind farms and solar parks in Spain and Romania contributiing to the revenues. In Portugal, this business area controls 50 % of the wind farms in operation with a 31 MW capacity, which contribute to results through the equity method.

In 2014, Martifer Renewables, via its subsidiary Ventinveste, celebrated a partnership for the construction of 171.6 MW of wind projects in Portugal. It reached an agreement for the sale of the 36 MW Gizalki project in Poland and concluded the sale of Rosa dos Ventos (14.7 MW), therefore continuing its asset rotation policy.

Attributable to shareholders -4.7 9.3 n.m.

The RE Developer’s total Revenues amounted to around 25 million euros, and result not only from the solar parks and wind farms in operation, totalling 40 MW and located in Spain and Romania, respectively, but also from the sale of Rosa dos Ventos, in Brazil.

The EBITDA reached 13 million euros in 2014, showing a 64 % decrease when compared with the previous year, essentially justified by the fact that the sale of wind farms in 2014 had a lower impact than the sales in the previous year, but also affected by the reduction of MWs in operation and by the negative impact of the instability in the Romanian market in the performance of the Babadag wind farm.

The Net Profit was positive in 0.6 million euros in 2014, being the net profit attributable to shareholders negative in around 5 million euros due to non proportional distribution of dividends in Brazil.

The total Capex made in 2014 was 2 million euros and results from costs in the development of projects mainly in Brazil, but also in Poland.

The Net Debt at the end of 2014 totalled around 41 million euros, a 27 million euros increase YoY, justified by the debt related to solar plants in operation in Spain.

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 47

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS’ RESULT (SOLAR) As described in the introductory note on chapter 3 – Financial Performance, in September 2014, the Group started to classify the solar business unit (consisting of Martifer Solar, SA and its subsidiaries) as a non current asset held for sale. This change resulted from the fact that Martifer is presently putting into action its plan to sell its economic interest (currently 55 %) in Martifer Solar.

Since the requirements of IFRS 5 are fulfilled, the contribution to Martifer’s consolidated results, coming from this segment, is presented in an autonomous line in the Consolidated P&L and the values YoY were adjusted to allow comparison. The contribution of assets and liabilities of the operational unit classified as held for sale are also presented in separate lines from the Group’s remaining consolidated assets and liabilities on 31st December 2014.

The discontinued operations’ Result (-65 million euros) therefore corresponds to the Net Profit of Solar activity attributable to the Group.

We present the analysis of the main aspects of the performance and position of this segment on 31 st December 2014 below.

ACTIVITY

The backlog of turnkey contracts (signed) is 290 million euros and is spread by Europe, Asia, America and Africa.

The strategic positioning of the company is based on focusing on mature markets with a favourable regulatory framing and emerging markets with good solar potential for the execution of on and off grid solutions. However, it is important to highlight that the margins in the solar segment were reduced throughout the value chain, with significant cuts in government support and an increase in competition.

RESULTS

Martifer Solar ended 2014 with a 67 million euros loss, with the contribution to the Group reaching -65 million euros.

Revenues in 2014 decreased by 57 % YoY, totalling 119 million euros. This reduction is mainly justified by the delay in projects in the UK and in Jordan, and also by the reduction of the activity in Portugal and in the Ukraine. This last one due to the political and military turmoil in the region.

48 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

The EBITDA at the end of 2014 was -27 million euros (around 12 million euros in 2013), with a -23 % margin vs. 4 % YoY, mainly because of additional costs in the project in Mexico, due to a partial destruction of the plant after a force majeure event, and in the USA where, in January 2014 the subsidiaries Martifer Solar USA INC and Martifer Aurora Solar LLC incurred in Chapter 11. In the last quarter, following the “settlement, plan support and release agreement”, with the consequent loss of control in these companies, they no longer integrate the consolidation perimeter, and the related non recoverable assets’ loss was recognized.

The EBIT in 2014 was strongly affected by the high impairment loss registered in FTP Power investment.

These facts are the greatest contributors to the high losses registered in the last quarter of the year.

The Net Financial Expenses in 2014 reached 8 million euros (in 2013, 15 million euros), being the variation explained by not recurring to financing from financial institutions for the project Silverado, whose alienation occurred in 2013.

The Net Profit was negative in 67 million euros and is a consequence of the effects that conditioned EBITDA in 2014 and of impairment and provision following the activity in the USA, in Mexico, in Portugal and in Spain.

The Capex registered in 2014 was 1 million euros, explained mainly by the activity of project development in Japan, in the UK, in France, in Chile, and in other countries.

The Net Debt registered on 31st December 2014 was 58 million euros, 7 million euros more than in 2013. Despite the debt being relatively controlled, the increase of only 7 million euros arises from Capex financing needs and support to treasury in the US subsidiaries.

05 | INDIVIDUAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION During 2014, the level of services that the Holding company provided to other Group companies was similar to 2013, when a great part of the services that had been previously provided by the company have been transferred to the Business Areas, following the strategy of allocating greater autonomy to the Business Areas, with consequent greater decentralization and accountability.

The Net Profit of Martifer, SGPS, SA, the holding company of the Group, was negative amounting to 122 million euros, comparing with a negative Net Profit of 49 million euros in the previous year.

The negative Net Result in 2014 is mainly due to the recognition of impairment losses in some of its subsidiaries’ and associates’ participations.

56 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

07 | FUTURE PROSPECTS Martifer Group has been taking important steps in the last years, always focused on the main defined strategic goals, having as main purpose the improvement of profitability and the consequent turnaround of the Group.

Today, we are focused on the Group’s original business area – metallic constructions – in its several segments: metal mechanical construction, aluminium and glass façades, infrastructures for oil & gas and naval industry.

We started the adoption of a new organizational model in 2014:

− Resizing and readapting the structure, aligning it with the international presence; − Improvement of the business processes and operational efficiency; − Development and retention of human resources; − Optimization of the industrial footprint and production layouts.

We have been working to improve the Group’s financial situation:

− Divestment in non-core businesses and sale of real estate assets; − Reduction of cash costs; − Gradual decrease of the net debt and the debt/EBITDA ratio; − Adequacy of the inflows maturity of the operational activity and investment (divestment) to the outflows of the financing activity.

The action plan is based, therefore, on 4 goals:

1. Adoption of a new organizational model • Resizing and readapting the structure • Improvement of the business processes and operational efficiency

2. Decrease of indebtedness through the divestment in non-core businesses and sale of non-core assets, allowing for:

• Reduction of the cash costs • A Gradual debt reduction

3. Reinforcement of the international presence, focusing on three core geographies (Europe and the Middle East, Africa and Latin America) and in attractive opportunities profitable above average. 4. Focus on the Group’s original business area – metallic constructions – in its several segments: metal mechanical construction, aluminium and glass façades, infrastructures for oil & gas and naval industry.

It is based on this strategy that the Group expects to, in the present, overcome challenges, aiming to ensure its long term sustainability.

58 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

08 | MAIN RISKS FINANCIAL RISKS

A) PRICE RISK

The volatility of the prices of raw material constitutes a risk for the Group, both in metallic constructions and in solar. The changes in the price of steel and aluminium impact the operational activity of the metallic constructions and the changes in solar panel prices can also influence the solar activity. Martifer has sought to mitigate this risk the same way in both areas, by including clauses in the contracts with customers that allow it to pass on raw-material price fluctuations and by negotiating fixed prices for large scale projects with its suppliers.

B) CURRENCY RISK

Currency risk reflects the possibility of registering gains or losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rates between different currencies. The Group’s internationalization forces it to be exposed to currency risk from different countries.

Exposure to currency risk results mainly from operational activities (in which expenses, income, assets and liabilities are expressed in a currency other than the reporting currency of the Group), from transactions between these subsidiaries and other Group companies and from the existence of transactions with external parties made by the operational companies in a currency other than the reporting currency of the Group.

The Group’s currency risk management policy aims to reduce the sensitivity of its results in exchange rate variations.

Subsidiaries, in their day-to-day operational activities, seek to use their local currency. Likewise, loans contracted by foreign subsidiaries are preferably denominated in their local currency.

Concerning exchange rates’ hedging, hedges are sporadic as their cost is sometimes considered excessive in relation to the risk level involved. However, whenever considered suitable, the Group contracts exchange rates hedging in order to cover the risk.

Usually, operations on exchange rates are only performed when they are to be used in covering risks in pre-existing or contracted positions and the coverage terms are negotiated in order to fit the terms of the covered instrument, to maximize the coverage efficiency.

C) INTEREST RATE RISK

Interest rate risk reflects the possibility of changes in future interest charges on loans contracted due to the evolution of the market interest rate levels.

The cost of financial debt contracted by the Group is indexed to short term base rates, reviewed with a year or less frequency, plus a negotiated risk premium. Therefore, variations in interest rates may affect the Group’s results.

The Group’s exposure to interest rates is related to financial liabilities contracted with a fixed and / or floating rate. In the first case, the Group faces a risk of fair value variation on these assets or liabilities, since every change in market rates involves an opportunity cost. In the second case, such change has a direct impact on interest value, consequently causing cash variations.

By the end of 2014, the medium and long term debt exposed to a fixed rate was 1.75 % (98.25 % floating rate), which compares with 3 % fixed rate and 97 % floating rate in 2013.

In more significant long-term loans and whenever it considers it appropriate the Group relies, when it considers it appropriate, on fixed interest rate loans or uses interest rate derivatives to hedge exposure to interest rate risk them. The amounts, interest due

Page 59: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 59

dates and repayment schedules of the loans underlying the interest rate derivatives are identical to those of the loans they hedge, and so being they are considered perfect hedges.

At the end of 2014, the Group sought to renegotiate premium risk rates (spread) with financial institutions in order to allow a lower exposure to interest rate risks and, consequently, meet the treasury resources stipulated in the restructuring plan.

D) LIQUIDITY RISK

Liquidity risk reflects the Group’s ability to satisfy its financial responsibilities with the financial resources available.

The main goal of the liquidity risk management program is to ensure that the Group has available, whenever needed the financial resources to satisfy its responsibilities and pursue the outlined strategies, honouring all its obligations towards third parties, through an adequate management of the financing cost / maturity ratio.

Additionally, and considering the medium / long term nature of the investments made, the Group has sought to restructure its debt so it can follow the maturity of the associated assets, not jeopardising the obligations arising from its operational short term activity.

Therefore, the Group expects to adequate the inflows maturity of the operational activity and investment (divestment) to the outflows of the financing activity.

By the end of 2014, the Group triedto restructure its debt with the main financial institutions, by rescheduling maturities over time, extending the average loan maturity to make it more coincident with the permanence of its long term assets and a maturity that allows the cash surpluses to be sufficient to comply with its obligations.

The Group expects to conclude the negotiation process in the first semester of 2015.

E) CREDIT RISK

The worsening of the worldwide economic conditions and the escalation of the adversities facing local, national and international economies can influence Martifer Group’s clients’ default rate, with possible negative impacts on the Group’s results.

The Group undergoes credit risk in its operational activity – clients and other receivables.

Aware of this reality, the Group tries to assess all its clients’ credit risk in order to establish credit limits, with the ultimate purpose of ensuring the collection of the amounts due within the negotiated periods.

With this objective in mind, the Group uses credit rating agencies, regular risk analysis and credit control and collects from and manages cases in litigation, procedures which are all considered essential to manage the credit conceeded and to minimize the risk of credit default.

OPERATIONAL RISKS

A) METALLIC CONSTRUCTIONS

Operational risks in the metallic constructions area, which also incorporated the energy equipment area as of 2011, are currently divided into three risk sources – client, supplier and external risk, which in turn are sub-divided into specific problems.

Page 60: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

60 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

Under client risk one can identify, for example, issues at the contractual level, such as the lack of convergence in the interpretation and application of the contractual dispositions, the distaste or dissatisfaction with the service / product and also the risk of non-payment of the price stipulated following the delivery of the projects.

In terms of demand volatility, it is important to note that the business area partly depends on the launch of public tenders for public infrastructures (e.g. bridges, airports, train stations). Within the scope of public tenders, Martifer is subject to complex regulatory demands, specific to each country, namely in matters concerning the presentation of the proposals and the preparation of complex administrative documentation files to satisfy the project’s specifications defined by the contracting entity. This may represent additional costs for Martifer Group. It must be highlighted that, despite the dependence on public tenders, Martifer has been able to win deals not subject to public tenders, thereby reducing its exposure to this risk.

Under supplier risk, Martifer Construções, as a specialist in engineering projects, relies on subcontractors very often. If these fail in the execution of their work the project’s delivery deadline cannot be met, in a domino effect. In other words, there is also a risk of delays in delivering the projects, with the inherent contractual penalties.

Finally, in terms of external risks and considering that the area of metallic constructions is strongly correlated with economic growth and with gross fixed capital formation, it is therefore sensitive to the current economic environment. Accordingly, the worsening of the sovereign debt crisis in Europe also raises other problems, namely the austerity plans that imply severe transversal cuts in public investment and the significant decrease in liquidity throughout the financial system, which often causes highly attractive projects to be shelved due to lack of capital.

In order to mitigate these risks, the metallic constructions area diversified its projects in different geographies, namely by entering markets that register stronger growth in the construction sector, such as Angola, Brazil and Algeria, or even by ‘visiting countries’ such as Saudi Arabia, which will allow to compensate both the effects of economic recession in Portugal and the economic slowdown in Europe.

B) SOLAR

In the turn-key park installation activity, end-client delays in obtaining the necessary licences or unanticipated delays in the delivery of equipment may disrupt the initially foreseen calendars for the completion of the respective projects. Despite the fact that this type of delay usually carries no contractual penalties, in some cases this situation can constitute a risk for the Group given the planning difficulties it can present.

Additionally, the financial market crisis has been hampering the promoters’ access to funding, resulting in the postponement of some projects. The diversification of the business throughout the value chain and the diversified client portfolio inside and outside the Group, currently being adopted, shall reduce the possible impact of this situation.

The solar photovoltaic modules produced by the company are traded with a 5-year warranty and a 25-year performance warranty. As a result, this sector is exposed to the risk of warranty claims many years after the sale of the equipment. Accordingly, any quality or performance problems that may occur can result in high costs. The performance of solar systems is also guaranteed in terms of the modules acquired for the construction of solar parks; however, the Group’s responsibility, in this case, is diminished since there is a right of recourse vis-à-vis the suppliers.

Additionaly, most of the equipment used in the production of solar photovoltaic modules is customized with specific raw materials, with a resulting dependency risk on key raw material suppliers. The Group has sought to mitigate this risk by establishing long-term contracts for some raw-materials, carefully selecting suppliers and working towards bringing together a diversification of suppliers for each of the relevant raw-materials.

C) RE DEVELOPER

The productivity indices associated with the renewable energy business depends on the volume of energy produced by the wind farms and their profitability, factors that depend on the location of the wind farms and on the seasons of the year (seasonality). Given that the wind turbines only operate when the wind velocity is within specific parameters and the parameters depend on the

Page 61: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 61

supplier and the type of turbine, if the said velocity is not within the parameters or if it is at the lower end of the limits, the energy production of the wind farms will be reduced.

The readiness and power curve of each turbine is contractually guaranteed, with indemnities being payable by the suppliers for situations where their readiness is not satisfied or the power curve is not attained.

This risk is also mitigated through the geographical distribution of the wind turbines in the wind farms, allowing the set-off of wind velocity variations at each farm and ensuring the relative stability of the volume of total energy produced.

LICENCING:

Wind farms and solar parks are subject to rigorous regulations in matters such as the development, construction, licensing and operation. If the relevant authorities in the jurisdictions in which the Group operates stop or reduce their support in the development of wind farms and solar parks, such actions may have a significant impact on the activity.

LEGAL RISKS Martifer is subject to the national and local laws and regulations in the various geographies and markets where it operates. These aim to ensure labour rights, environment protection, spatial planning and the maintenance of an open and competitive market. Thus, the legal and regulatory changes that affect the conditions conducive to the development of the Groups’ activities and that consequently harm or impede the attainment of the strategic objectives require the Company to adapt to the new regulatory realities.

The management of legal risk is carried out by the legal department of the holding company and of each of the Group’s Business Areas and is monitored within the scope of reviews performed by internal legal and fiscal service providers dedicated to the respective activities, which operate in the dependence of the Board of Directors and management, conducting their work in articulation with the other fiscal and financial departments, so as to ensure the protection of the Company’s interests and ultimately of the stakeholders’, in strict compliance with their legal duties.

The members of the legal departments and internal advisory service providers referred to above have specialized formal qualifications and undergo regular formal training and updating.

Legal and fiscal advisory services are also ensured, nationally and internationally, by external professionals, selected amongst reputable firms and in accordance with the highest standards of competence, ethics and experience.

12 | NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS INTRODUCTORY NOTE Martifer SGPS, S.A., with its registered head-office at Zona Industrial, town of Oliveira de Frades – Portugal (‘Martifer SGPS’ or ‘Company’), and its group of companies (all denominated ‘Group’), have as their main activities metallic constructions (metal mechanical constructions, aluminium and glass façades, infrastructures for oil & gas and naval industry) and the promotion and development of renewable energy projects (Note 3).

Martifer SGPS was incorporated on 29th October 2004, having its share capital been realized through the delivery of shares, valued at their market value, that the shareholders held in Martifer Construções, S.A., a company that was incorporated in 1990 and which, at that time, was the holding company of the current Martifer Group.

As of June 2007, after the initial public offering, the Martifer SGPS, S.A. shares have been listed on Euronext Lisbon.

In September 2014, Martifer SGPS’s Board of Directors decided, following the strategy to focus on the metallic construction area, to sell its stake in Martifer Solar (composed by Martifer Solar S.A. and its subsidiaries, currently held by 55 % by the Group). As the sale is highly likely, and the requirements of IFRS 5 were fulfilled, Martifer Solar’s assets and liabilities were classified as “non current assets held for sale” and “liabilities associated to non current assets held for sale”, respectively, being Martifer Solar’s Net Profit presented as “discontinued operations’ result” (Note 28).

On 31st December 2014, the Group developed its activity mainly in Portugal, in Spain, in Slovakia, in Romania, in Angola, in Brazil, in the United States of America, in Mozambique, in Ireland, in Bulgaria, in the Netherlands, in France, in Morocco, in the United Kingdom, in Saudi Arabia, in Germany, in Malta and in Algeria.

All the amounts presented in these notes are expressed in Euros (rounded to the unit), unless otherwise stated.

84 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Euros since this is the main currency of the Group’s operations. The financial statements of Group companies expressed in foreign currency were converted to Euros in accordance with the accounting policies described in Note 1 xv).

In the preparation of the consolidated financial statements, in accordance with IAS/IFRS, the Group’s Board of Directors adopted certain assumptions and estimates that can affect the assets and liabilities reported, as well as the profits and losses incurred in the reporting periods (Note 1 xxvi)). All the Board of Directors’ estimates and assumptions were made taking into consideration the best knowledge available at the financial statements’ approval date, and the information available at that time.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared for appreciation and approval by the annual Shareholder’s General Meeting. The Board of Directors has approved them for issuance, on 31st March 2015 and believes that these will be approved without any changes.

BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

The Group’s consolidation methods are as follows:

a) Group companies

Investments in the companies the Group directly or indirectly owns more than 50% of the voting rights at the Shareholder’s General Meetings and / or is able to establish the financial and operational policies so as to benefit from their activities (definition of control normally used by the Group) are included in the consolidated financial statements using the full consolidation method.

The equity and net profit attributable to minority shareholders are shown separately in the consolidated statement of financial position (in the equity caption ‘non-controlling interests’) and in the consolidated income statement (included in the consolidated net profit attributable to non-controlling interests) respectively. Companies included in the consolidated financial statements using the full consolidation method are listed in Note 2.

In business combinations occurring after 1st January 2004, the assets and liabilities of each subsidiary (including contingent liabilities) are measured at fair value on the date of acquisition as established in IFRS 3. Any excess of the cost of the business combination over the Group’s interest in the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired is recognized as Goodwill or, when identified, added to the asset that originated such difference. Any excess of the Group’s share in the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired over the cost of the business combination (Badwill) is recognized as income in the income statement for the year, after the reassessment of the estimated fair value. Non-controlling interests include their proportion of the fair value of net identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities determined at the date of acquisition of the Group companies.

In business combinations occurring after 1st January 2011 (IFRS 3R), any excess of the cost of the business combination, of the fair value of any investment held before the acquisition of control and of the value of non-controlling interests, over the fair value of assets, liabilities and identifiable contingent liabilities is recognized as Goodwill. If the cost of the business combination, the fair value of any investment held before the acquisition of control and the value of non-controlling interests, is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized in the income statement for the year. Transaction costs arising in business combinations occurring after this date are recognized as an expense when incurred.

Transactions of disposal or acquisition of shares to / from non-controlling interests do not result in the recognition of gains, losses or Goodwill and in any difference between the value of the transaction and the carrying value of the investment traded is recognized in equity.

The negative results generated in each period by subsidiaries with non-controlling interests are allocated, based on the percentage held, to non-controlling interests, even if these become negative.

The non-controlling interests, recognized in business combinations, are measured at their respective proportion of the fair value of identified net assets, transaction by transaction.

The results of the Group companies acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated income statement as of the date of their acquisition and up to the date of their disposal.

Adjustments to the financial statements of Group companies are done, whenever necessary, in order to adapt their accounting policies to those used by the Group. All intra-group transactions, balances and distributed dividends are eliminated in the consolidation process. Whenever the Group has, in substance, control over other entities incorporated for a specific purpose, even if no share capital interests are directly held in those entities, they are consolidated using the full consolidation method. At 31st December 2014, there are no entities in this situation.

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 85

b) Associate and jointly controlled companies

Investments in associate companies (companies in which the group has significant influence but does not have control over the financial and operational decisions of those companies - mainly investments representing between 20 % and 50 % of the company’s share capital) and in jointly controlled companies (companies in which the Group shares control with other partners) are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with the equity method in the caption ‘Investments in associate companies and joint arrangements’.

Under the equity method, investments are recorded at cost, adjusted by the amount corresponding to the share of changes in equity and net profit of associate and jointly controlled companies and by the dividends received, net of impairment losses.

The assets and liabilities of each associate and jointly controlled company (including contingent liabilities) are identified at their fair value on the acquisition date. Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s share of the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the associate companies is recognized at the date of acquisition as Goodwill. This Goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment in associate companies and joint arrangements and analysed annually for recoverability as part of the financial asset. Any excess of the Group’s share of the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of the business combination (Badwill), after reassessment, is immediately recognized in the income statement.

An assessment of the investments in associate and jointly controlled companies is performed whenever there is evidence that the asset might be impaired. Any impairment loss detected is recorded in the income statement.

When the Group’s share of losses exceeds the carrying amount of the investment, such investment is reported at nil value for as long as the equity of the associate or jointly controlled company is negative, except when the Group has assumed commitments in respect of said associate or jointly controlled companies. In this case a provision is recorded for those commitments.

The Group’s share of unrealized gains arising from transactions with associate and jointly controlled companies is eliminated. Unrealized losses are eliminated, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment of the assets transferred.

Investments in associate and jointly controlled companies consolidated using the equity method are listed in Note 2.

MAIN ACCOUNTING POLICIES, JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES

The main accounting policies, judgements and estimates used in the preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the years presented are as follows:

i) Goodwill

The excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s interest in the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of subsidiaries, associate companies or jointly controlled companies at the date of acquisition, is recorded in the caption ‘Goodwill’ (in the case of investments in subsidiaries) or in the caption ‘Investments in associate companies and joint arrangements’ (in the case of investments in associate companies or jointly controlled companies).

Goodwill arising on acquisitions prior to the date of transition to IFRS (1st January 2004) or Goodwill arising from the constitution of the Group is recorded at its net carrying amount, calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Portugal, and is subject, as of that date, to annual impairment tests.

Goodwill is not amortized but it is subject to impairment tests on an annual basis when its carrying amount is compared to its recoverable amount. Impairment losses identified during the year are recorded in the income statement in the caption ‘Provisions and impairment losses’. The recoverable amount is the highest between the fair value less the cost to sell and the value in use. The fair value less cost to sell is the amount that could be obtained in an arms-length transaction. The value in use is the present value of the estimated future cash flows from the continuous use of such asset and from its sale at the end of its life-cycle. The recoverable amount is estimated individually for each asset, or, when this is not possible, for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

ii) Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount is to be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through their continued use. Nevertheless, such classification requires that the sale be highly probable and that the asset (or disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present condition. In addition, the Board of Directors must be committed to the sale, which should occur in the short-term (normally, but not exclusively, within one year from the date of that classification).

Page 86: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

86 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

Non-current assets (and disposal groups) classified as held for sale are measured at the lowest of their carrying amount and their fair value less cost to sell and are not amortised or depreciated during the period they are classified as held for sale.

iii) Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired by the Group are stated at their acquisition cost, net of depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets are only recognized if they are controlled by the Group and if their cost can be reliably measured.

Intangible assets comprise mainly software and other rights, which are depreciated on a straight-line basis over a 3-year period, and costs incurred obtaining licences to explore wind farms, which are depreciated in line with the license period granted (currently 20 years).

Costs incurred with the licensing of wind farms are recognized as intangible assets if, and only if, all of the following requirements have been fulfilled:

- economic feasibility studies confirm that the wind farms will generate future economic benefits; - the Group has the technical and financial capacity to install and explore those wind farms; and - the expenditure attributable to the wind farms during the licencing phase can be reliably measured.

Expenditure on research and installation activities related with wind farms is recognized as an expense in the year in which it is incurred.

The remaining research expenses are recognized as costs in the year in which they are incurred.

Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are identified and recognized separately from Goodwill if their fair value can be reliably measured. The cost of such intangible assets is the fair value on the acquisition date.

Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, on the same basis as intangible assets acquired separately. These assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis, usually during the period over which the economic benefits are expected to occur.

iv) Tangible assets

Tangible assets are recorded at their acquisition cost, net of depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the assets’ life-cycle, land is not subject to depreciation.

Tangible assets in progress are fixed assets still under construction / development and are recorded at their acquisition cost, net of impairment losses. Those assets are depreciated as of the moment they become available for use with the quality and technical conditions required to operate efficiently. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis, over the expected useful life for each class of tangible assets. The useful life is estimated taking into consideration the expected use of each class of tangible assets, as well as their natural consumption and technical obsolescence.

The depreciation rates used correspond to the following estimated life-cycles:

Buildings 20 to 50 years

Equipment: Basic equipment 3 to 7 years Transportation equipment 4 to 5 years Tools and dies 3 to 5 years Office equipment 3 to 10 years

Other tangible assets: Equipment installed in wind and solar farms 15 to 20 years Other tangible assets 3 to 10 years

Maintenance and repair costs that neither increase the life-cycle nor create significant improvements in tangible assets, are recognized as costs in the year in which they occur.

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 87

v) Leasing

Leases are classified as (i) finance leases whenever the terms of the lease substantially transfer all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as (ii) operating leases.

A lease is classified as finance or operating depending on the substance of the transaction rather than on the form of the contract.

Fixed assets acquired under finance lease contracts and the related liabilities are recorded in accordance with the financial method. Under this method the tangible assets, the corresponding accumulated depreciation (as defined in iii) and iv) above) and the liabilities are recorded in accordance with the contracted financial plan. In addition, the interest included in lease payments and the depreciation of the tangible assets are both recognized as expenses in the income statement for the year to which they relate.

Assets under long-term rental contracts are recorded in accordance with the operational lease method. In accordance with this method, the rents paid are recognized as expenses over the rental period.

vi) Investment properties

An investment property is a property held to earn rentals and / or for capital appreciation and not for use in the course of current operations.

Investment property is initially measured at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to the initial recognition, investment property is measured at fair value, and gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value are included in the income statement for the period in which they arise.

Costs incurred with investment property (maintenance, repair, insurance and property tax), as well as the related revenue and rental income are included in the income statement for the period in which they arise.

vii) Financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets and liabilities are recognized in the Group’s statement of financial position when, and only when, the Group is a contractual party to the instrument.

a) Financial instruments:

The Group classifies financial instruments in the following categories: ‘Financial investments at fair value through profit or loss’, ‘Borrowings and receivables’, ‘Held-to-maturity investments’ and ‘Available-for-sale investments’. The classification depends on the intention inherent to the investment’s acquisition.

The classification is made at the initial recognition and re-appreciated on a quarterly basis.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: this category is divided into two: ‘financial assets classified as held for trading’ and ‘financial assets designated by the Group at fair value through profit or loss’. A financial asset is classified under this category, namely if it is acquired for the purpose of selling it in the short-term. Derivatives are also classified as instruments held for trading, except if designated as effective hedging instruments. Financial instruments in this category are classified as current if they are held for trading or if it is expected that they are going to be realized within twelve months of the end of the reporting period;

Held-to-maturity financial assets: this category includes financial assets, non-derivative, with fixed or variable reimbursements with a fixed maturity, and which the Board of Directors intends to hold to maturity.

Available-for-sale financial assets: these include financial assets, non-derivative, that are designated as available-for-sale and those that are not classified as ‘borrowings and receivables’, ‘held-to-maturity investments’ or ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’. This category is classified as non-current, unless the Board of Directors intends to sell them within 12 months from the end of the reporting period.

Held-to-maturity financial assets are classified as non-current, unless their maturity is less than a year from the end of the reporting period. Financial assets designated by the Group at fair value through profit or loss are classified as current in the statement of financial position.

All purchases and sales of financial instruments are recognized on the trade date, this means, on the date when the Group assumes the risks and obligations inherent to the acquisition and disposal of the assets. These investments are initially measured at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration paid for it, including transaction costs, with the exception of ‘Financial investments at

Page 88: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

88 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

fair value through profit or loss’. In the latter case, the financial assets are initially recognized at their fair value and the transactions costs are recognized in the income statement. Financial investments are derecognized when the right or obligation to receive or pay financial flows, respectively, has expired or has been transferred, and, therefore, all the risks and benefits have been transferred.

‘Available-for-sale financial assets’ and ‘Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ are subsequently measured and recorded in the financial statements at fair value.

Gains and losses, realized or not, resulting from a change in the fair value of the ‘Financial investments at fair value through profit or loss’ are recognized in the income statement for the year. Gains and losses resulting from a change in the fair value of ‘Available-for-sale assets’ are recognized directly in the statement of comprehensive income, under the caption ‘Fair value reserves – Available-for-sale assets’ until the investment is sold, received or in any way alienated, at which moment the accumulated gain or loss is recognized in the income statement.

The fair value of financial assets is based on current market prices. If the market on which the investments are traded is not active (no quoted price exists), the Group establishes the instrument’s fair value using other valuation techniques such as recourse to similar transactions, discounted cash flow analysis or the use of option pricing models to reflect the specific circumstances. The fair value of listed investments is calculated using the closing price on Euronext Lisbon at the end of the reporting period.

To determine the fair value of a financial asset or liability when there is an active market, the market price is applied. This constitutes level 1 of the hierarchy of fair value, as defined in IFRS 13 – Fair value: mensuration and disclosure.

If the market on which the investments are traded is not active, which is the case for some financial assets and liabilities, valuation techniques generally accepted in the market, based on market assumptions, are used. This constitutes level 2 of the hierarchy of fair value, as defined in IFRS 13.

The entity applies valuation techniques for unlisted financial instruments, such as, derivatives, financial investments at fair value through profit or loss and available-for-sale investments. The valuation models most frequently used are discounted cash flow analysis and option valuation models which incorporate market information such as interest rate curves.

For some complex financial instruments, complex valuation models with assumptions and information that is not directly observable in the market, and for which an entity applies internal estimates and assumptions, are used. This constitutes level 3 of the hierarchy of fair value, as defined in IFRS 13. ‘Borrowings and receivables’ and ‘Held-to-maturity investments’ are recorded at their amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

Financial assets are assessed, by the Group, for indicators of impairment at each reporting period. In the case of equity instruments classified as available-for-sale, a significant decline or a prolonged decline in their fair value to amounts lower than their acquisition cost, are indicators of impairment. For all other financial assets objective evidence of impairment could include:

- significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or - default or delinquency in interest or main payments; or - it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial restructuring.

For financial assets carried at amortized cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.

The carrying amount of the financial assets is reduced directly by the impairment losses for all financial assets with the exception of trade and other receivables, for which the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade or other receivable is considered uncollectable, it is written-off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written-off are credited in the income statement for the period. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in the income statement in the caption ‘Accumulated impairment losses’.

With the exception of ‘Available-for-sale investments’, which correspond to capital instruments in another company, if in a subsequent period the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through the income statement.

b) Trade receivable and other receivables

Trade and other debtors balances do not bear interest and are recorded at their nominal value less any impairment losses, recognized in the allowance account ’Accumulated impairment losses‘, in order to reflect their net realizable value.

Page 89: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 89

c) Borrowings

Borrowings are recorded as liabilities at their nominal value, net of up-front fees and commissions related with the issuance of these instruments. Financial expenses are calculated based on the effective interest rate and are recorded in the income statement on an accruals basis.

d) Trade payables and other payables

Accounts payable that do not bear interest are recorded at their nominal value, which is substantially equivalent to their fair value.

e) Financial liabilities and equity instruments

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified and accounted for based on their contractual substance. The Group classifies as equity instruments the contracts that evidence the Group’s residual interest in a group of assets after deducting all of its liabilities. The Group classifies as financial liabilities all those that are expected to give rise to a disbursement of funds.

f) Derivatives

The Group uses derivative instruments to manage its exposure to financial risks. Derivative instruments are only used for hedge accounting purposes, with the appropriate approval of Group’s Board of Directors, and never for speculative purposes.

The derivative instruments used by the Group, classified as cash flows hedges, are exclusively related to the hedging of interest rates and exchange rates on loans obtained. The loan’s amount, the interest’s maturity and the loan’s reimbursement plans inherent to the hedging instrument are in all respects similar to the established conditions for the contractual loans, configuring totally effective correlations.

The criteria used by the Group to classify the derivative instruments as cash flow hedges are as follows:

- The hedge is expected to be highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows attributable to the hedged risk; - Hedge effectiveness can be reliably measured; - There is adequate documentation on the transaction at the inception of the hedge; - The transaction to be hedged is highly probable.

Cash flow hedges are initially recorded at fair value, if any, and subsequently reevaluated at their fair value. The effective portion of the changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is deferred in the statement of comprehensive income in the caption ‘Fair value reserves – Cash flow hedge derivatives’, being transferred to results in the same periods the hedged instruments affect these. The gains or losses relating to the ineffective portion are immediately recognized in the income statement, when determined.

Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold. When a hedging instrument no longer qualifies for hedge accounting, the accumulated gain or loss deferred in the statement of comprehensive income remains in equity and subsequent reevaluations of the derivative are recorded in the income statement.

g) Green certificates

At present there is no accounting standard or interpretation in the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) that deals specifically with the accounting for emission permits or renewable energy certificates.

Green certificates are instruments that approve the production of a certain volume of electricity from renewable energy sources.

Upon receipt of the green certificates, the company recognizes an asset under “Other short-term investments” as well as its corresponding “Deferred income”. The deferred income is recorded in the income statement when the green certificates are sold. Subsequent to the initial recognition, the green certificates are valued at the transaction price available at that date. At the end of each period, the green certificates are valued using their fair value, which corresponds to their market price on that date. The differences arising are recorded in the income statement as “Other financial income” or as “Other financial expenses”.

Green certificates are valid for a given period as from their issue date (16 months in Romania). The carrying amount of the expired green certificates (due to lack of use within the validity period) is recorded in “Other financial expenses”.

90 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

h) Notes receivable and factoring

The Group only derecognizes a financial asset when, and only when, the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; or it substantially transfers the contractual risks and rewards inherent to the possession of such financial asset to a third party. If the Group substantially retains the risks and benefits inherent to the possession of such assets, it continues to recognizes these in its financial statements, recording a liability in the caption ‘Borrowings’ as the monetary collateral for the assets ceded.

Therefore, notes receivable and factored accounts receivable are recorded at each reporting period as liabilities in the statement of the financial position, with the exception of ‘non-recourse factoring’ operations, until the underlying assets are fully collected by the Group.

viii) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash at banks, term deposits and other treasury applications with a maturity of less than three months, which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

ix) Inventories

Merchandise and raw-, subsidiary and consumable materials are stated at the lowest of their average acquisition cost or net realizable value (estimated sales price less cost to make the sale). Finished and intermediate goods are recorded at production cost (which includes the cost of incorporated raw-materials, direct labour and overheads), which is lower than their market value.

Impairment losses are recognized in the income statement when it is estimated that the inventories’ net realizable value is lower than its carrying amount (Note 10).

x) Accrual basis

Expenses and income are recorded in the year to which they relate, regardless of their date of payment or receipt. The captions of ’Other non-current assets’, ‘Other current assets’, ‘Other non-current liabilities’ and ‘Other current liabilities’ include expenses and income relating to the current period, whose payment and receipt will occur in future periods, as well as payments and receipts in the current period but which relate to future periods.

xi) Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is recorded net of returns, rebates and similar allowances.

a) Construction contracts (metallic structure constructions and the construction of turnkey wind farms and solar parks)

The Group recognizes income and costs associated with construction contracts, on an individual basis, using the stage of completion method. Under this method, at the end of each period, income and expenses are recognized with reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity. The stage of completion is determined based on the ratio between costs incurred to the balance sheet date and the total estimated contract costs.

The difference between income determined applying this ratio and the total amount invoiced is recorded in ‘Other current assets’ as ‘Work in progress’ or in ‘Other current liabilities’ as ‘Advanced invoicing’, respectively.

Revenue arising on contract variations is recorded when these are agreed with the customer, or when negotiations are at an advanced stage and it is probable that these will be favourable to the Group, and it can be reliably measured.

To cater for the costs that will be incurred during the guarantee period, the Group recognizes a provision, created on an annual basis, to cover for such legal obligation. This provision is estimated taking into consideration the annual production as well as the historical costs incurred in the past with this obligation.

Claims for reimbursement of expenditure not covered in the contract price are included in the contract revenue when negotiations with the client are at an advanced stage and it is probable that these will be favourable to the Group, and they can be reliably measured.

When it is likely that the total estimated costs of the construction contract will exceed the revenue negotiated, the expected loss is immediately recognized in the income statement.

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 91

b) Short-term construction contracts

In these types of contracts, the Group recognizes revenue and costs as they are billed or incurred, respectively.

c) Recognition of revenue resulting from real estate activity

Relevant costs incurred with real estate projects include the direct construction costs, the costs associated with the realization of the projects as well as their licensing costs. Borrowing costs attributable to real estate projects are capitalized until the project is completed.

Borrowing costs are only capitalized if the project is in progress, i.e. if it is awaiting licenses from local authorities, or if it is under construction. In all other cases, it is considered to be suspended and no capitalization of borrowing costs occurs.

Revenue on these types of operations is generated and recognized when the contractual position held by the Group is transferred, which, generally, coincides with the signing of the transfer deed.

d) Revenue recognition related with the sale of goods (merchandise and finished products)

Revenue from the sale of goods is only recognized when all the following conditions are met:

- the Group has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods; -the Group neither retains continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor

effective control over the goods sold; - the amount of revenue can be reliably measured; - it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity; and - the costs incurred or to be incurred related to the transaction can be reliably measured.

xii) Own worked capitalized

The internal costs (materials, staff and production costs) incurred during the production of tangible fixed assets are capitalized only when the following requirements are fulfilled:

- the underlying assets are identifiable; - there is strong probability that the assets will generate future economic benefits; and - the production costs can be reliably measured.

xiii) Costs incurred with proposal preparation

Costs incurred with proposal preparation are recognized in the income statement as they are incurred due to the unpredictability of their outcome.

xiv) Balances and transactions in foreign currency

Individual financial statements:

All the assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency, using the official exchange rates at the reporting date. The exchange differences, favourable or unfavourable, originated by the differences between the exchange rates on the transaction dates and those used at the collection, payment or in the reporting period, are recognized in their gross amounts as profits and losses in the income statement for the period.

Consolidated financial statements:

Assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations are translated into Euros using the exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Income and expense items, as well as cash flows, are translated at the average exchange rates of the year. In addition, some medium-, long-term or undefined maturity loans granted to subsidiaries, denominated in a currency other than the Euro are considered as part of the Group's net investment. Whenever exchange differences arise, they are recorded in equity and recognized in the Group’s foreign currency translation reserve. Such exchange rate differences are recognized in the income statement in the year in which the foreign entity is disposed of.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and therefore, are translated at the closing rate.

xv) Income tax

Income tax for the period includes the current and deferred income tax, in accordance with IAS 12. Current income tax is calculated based on taxable profits and taking into consideration the local tax laws applicable to each Group company.

Deferred tax is recognized on timing differences arising between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base used in the calculation of taxable profit, as well as on certain tax credits attributed to the Group, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured and annually reevalued at the tax rates expected to apply in the period in which the liabilities are settled or the assets are realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) enacted or substantively enacted.

Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible timing differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible timing differences can be used. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow for all or part of the asset to be recovered.

The deferred tax amount resulting from transactions or events recognized directly in equity is also registered directly in equity, not affecting the income for the year.

xvi) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are recorded in the income statement on an accrual basis.

Borrowing cost related to loans obtained to finance the construction of tangible fixed assets and some inventories (real estate projects) are capitalized, forming part of the asset’s carrying amount. The capitalization begins when the preparation of the construction activity starts and ceases when the asset enters into use, at the end of its production or construction or when the project is suspended.

Page 93: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 93

xvii) Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. These provisions are reviewed at each reporting period and are adjusted to reflect the best estimate at the date, taking into consideration all the risks and uncertainties inherent to such estimates. When a provision is determined using the future cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.

The provisions recognized by the Group result mainly from:

i) Construction guarantees

The Group recognizes a provision for the costs estimated to be incurred in the future with construction guarantees provided on metallic structures and solar parks and wind farms that were sold. This provision is recognized on the date of the sale or when the service is rendered, thus affecting the profit made on the deal. At the end of the guarantee period (a 5-year average) any remaining amount of provision is reversed in the income statement.

ii) Onerous contracts

The Group recognizes a provision for onerous contracts when, for construction contracts in progress, it is established that the costs to be incurred to satisfy the obligation assumed exceed the future economic benefits. This analysis is made on a contract by contract basis, based on information provided by the project managers.

iii) Legal claims in progress

A provision for legal claims in progress is recognized when there is a reliable estimate of the costs to be incurred as a consequence of lawsuits proposed by third parties.

iv) Financial assets accounted for under the equity method

A provision is recognized whenever an associate or jointly controlled company has a negative equity and it is considered that the Group has assumed responsibilities over and above its share of the capital.

xviii) Government grants

Grants received for staff training programmes and new hiring actions are recognized as income in the same period the relevant expenses are incurred.

Grants received to finance tangible fixed asset investments are recorded as deferred income and are recognized as income, in the caption ‘Other operating income’, on a straight-line basis over the expected life-cycle of the underlying assets.

xix) Impairment of tangible and intangible assets excluding Goodwill

At each reporting period and whenever an event or change in circumstance is identified, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that these assets are impaired. When the asset carrying amount is greater than its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized and recorded in the caption ‘Impairment losses’. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less cost to sell and value in use. The fair value less cost to sell is the amount that could be obtained in an arms-length transaction. Value in use is calculated by assessing the estimated future cash flows generated by the asset discounted to the present value, taking into consideration its residual value. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

The reversal of impairment losses recorded in previous years is recognized when the underlying reasons that caused that entry are no longer applicable and, consequently, the asset is no longer impaired. The reversal of impairment losses is recognized in the income statement as an operating result. However, the reversal of an impairment loss is performed just up to the limit of the amount that would be recorded through the historical cost, or through the reevalued amount, net of amortization and depreciation, if the impairment loss had not been recorded in previous years.

94 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

xx) Employee benefits

Variable remunerations

According to the statutes of some Group companies, the shareholders of those companies approved at the General Meeting or within a Remuneration Committee elected by the shareholders, the fixed and variable remuneration to be distributed to the members of governing bodies. Bonus payments are recorded in the period to which they relate.

xxi) Statement of financial position presentation

Assets to be realized and liabilities to be settled twelve months after the reporting date are classified as non-current. Likewise, given their nature, ‘Deferred taxes’ and ‘Provisions’ are classified as non-current in the statement of financial position.

xxii) Contingent assets and liabilities

Contingent liabilities are not recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Instead, they are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements unless the probability of a cash outflow is remote, in which case no disclosure is made.

Contingent assets are not recorded in the consolidated financial statements but are disclosed when future economic benefits are probable.

xxiii) Consolidated cash flow statement

The consolidated cash flow statement is prepared using the direct method, according to IAS 7. The Group classifies as ‘Cash and cash equivalents’ applications which mature in less than three months and which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

The consolidated cash flow statement is classified into operating, investing and financing activities. Operating activities include cash receipts from clients, cash payments to suppliers, cash payments to and on behalf of employees and other operating activities’ payments and receipts. Investing activities’ cash flows include, essentially, payments and receipts related with acquisitions and sales of tangible and intangible assets and investments.

Financing activities’ cash flows include, essentially, payments and receipts of loans and borrowings, financial lease contracts and dividend payments.

xxiv) Subsequent events

Events occurring after the reporting period that provide further evidence of conditions existing at the end of the reporting period (“adjusting events”), are recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Events occurring after the reporting period that are indicative of conditions occurring after the end of the reporting period (“non-adjusting events”), if material, are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

xxv) Judgements and estimates

In the process of preparing the Group’s consolidated financial statements the Board of Directors used its best knowledge and accumulated experience in past and / or current events in making certain assumptions as to future events.

The most significant accounting estimates reflected in the consolidated financial statements for the years ended on 31st December 2014 and 2013 include:

- The life-cycle of the tangible assets; - Fair value of the investment properties; - Impairment analysis of goodwill; - Recognition of provisions and impairment losses; - Revenue recognition on construction contracts and guarantees;

- Recognition of deferred tax assets arising from tax losses; - Fair value of derivatives.

The estimates used were based on the best information available during the preparation of the consolidated financial statements and on the best knowledge of past and present events. Although future events are neither controlled by the Group nor foreseeable,

Page 95: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 95

some can occur and have an impact on the estimates. Changes to the estimates used by the Board, that occur after the date of these consolidated financial statements, will be recognized in net income, in accordance with IAS 8, using a prospective methodology.

xxvi) Financial risk management

Financial markets include a high degree of uncertainty, to which the Group is exposed. This uncertainty is translated into several risks, to which the Group is exposed, namely price risk, currency risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.

a) Price Risk

The volatility of raw material prices constitutes a risk for the Group, both in metallic constructions and in solar. The changes in the price of steel and aluminium impact the operational activity of the metallic constructions and the changes in solar panel prices can also influence solar activity. Martifer has sought to mitigate this risk the same way in both areas, by including clauses in its contracts with customers that allow it to pass on raw-material price fluctuations and by negotiating fixed prices for large scale projects with its suppliers.

b) Currency Risk

Currency risk reflects the possibility of registering gains or losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rates between different currencies. The Group’s internationalization forces it to be exposed to the currency risk of different countries.

Exposure to currency risk results mainly from operational activities (in which expenses, income, assets and liabilities are expressed in a currency other than the reporting currency of the Group), from transactions between these subsidiaries and other Group companies and from the existence of transactions with external parties made by the operational companies in a currency other than the reporting currency of the Group.

The Group’s currency risk management policy aims to reduce the sensitivity of its results to exchange rate variations.

Subsidiaries, in their day-to-day operational activities, seek to use their local currency. Likewise, loans contracted by foreign subsidiaries are preferably denominated in their local currency.

In which relates to exchange rates hedging, hedges are sporadic as their costs are sometimes considered excessive in the face of the level of the risks involved. However, whenever considered suitable, the Group contracts exchange rates hedging, in order to cover the risk.

Usually, operations on exchange rates are only performed when they are to be used in covering risks in pre-existing or contracted positions and the coverage terms are negotiated in order to fit the terms of the covered instrument, to maximize the coverage efficiency.

The relevant amounts of the Group’s assets and liabilities recorded in a currency other than the Euro are as follows:

c) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk reflects the possibility of changes in future interest charges on loans contracted due to the evolution of market interest rate levels.

The cost of financial debt contracted by the Group is indexed to short term base rates, reviewed yearly or less, plus a negotiated risk premium. Therefore, variations in interest rates may affect the Group’s results.

The Group’s exposure to interest rates is related to financial liabilities contracted with a fixed and / or floating rate. In the first case, the Group faces a risk of fair value variation on these assets or liabilities, since every change in market rates involves an opportunity cost. In the second case, such change has a direct impact in interest value, consequently causing variations in cash.

By the end of 2014, medium and long-term debt exposed to a fixed rate was 1.75 % (98.25 % floating rate), which compares with 3 % (fixed rate) and 97 % (floating rate) in 2013.

In the more significant long-term loans, and whenever is considered appropriate, the Group relies on fixed interest rate loans or uses interest rate derivatives to hedge exposure to interest rate risk on the said loans. The amounts, interest due dates and repayment schedules of the loans underlying the interest rate derivatives are identical to those of the loans they hedge, and, as such, are considered perfect hedges.

At the end of 2014, the Group sought to renegotiate premium risk rates (spread) with financial institutions in order to allow for a lower exposure to interest rate risks and, consequently, to meet the treasury resources stipulated in the restructuring plan.

The analisys of the sensitivity to variation for more or less 1 p.p. in interest rate is presented on note 30 ‘Borrowings’.

d) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk reflects the Group’s ability to satisfy its financial responsibilities with the available financial resources.

The main goal of the liquidity risk management program is to ensure that the Group has available the financial resources to satisfy its responsibilities and pursue the outlined strategies at any time, honouring all its obligations towards third parties, through an adequate management in financing cost / maturity ratio.

Additionally, and considering the medium / long-term nature of the investments made, the Group has sought to restructure debt so it can follow the maturity of the associated assets, not jeopardising the obligations arising from its operational short-term activity.

Therefore, the Group expects to adequate the inflows maturity of the operational activity and investment (divestment) to the outflows of the financing activity.

By the end of 2014, the Group tried to restructure its debt with the main financial institutions by rescheduling maturities over time, extending the average loan maturity to make it more coincident with the permanence of its long term assets and a maturity that allows the cash surpluses to be sufficient to comply with its obligations.

The Group expects to conclude the negotiation process in the first half of 2015.

e) Credit Risk

The worsening of the worldwide economic conditions and the escalation of the adversities facing local, national and international economies can influence Martifer Group’s Clients’ default rate, with possible negative impacts on the Group’s results.

The Group is subject to credit risk in the operational activity – Clients and other receivables.

Aware of this reality, the Group seeks to evaluate all its Clients’ credit risk in order to establish credit limits, with the ultimate purpose of ensuring the collection of the amounts due within the periods negotiated.

With this objective in mind, the Group uses credit rating agencies, who regularly analyse risk and credit control, and collects from and manages cases in litigation, procedures which are all considered essential to manage the credit conceeded and to minimize the risk of credit default.

xxvii) Operational Risk Management

a) Metallic Constructions

Operational risks in the Metallic Constructions area, which also incorporated the energy equipment area as of 2011, are currently divided into three sources of risk – client, supplier and external risk, which in turn are sub-divided into specific problems.

Under client risk one can identify, for example, issues at the contractual level, such as the lack of convergence in the interpretation and application of the contractual dispositions, the distaste or dissatisfaction with the service / product and also the risk of non-payment of the price stipulated following the delivery of the projects.

In terms of demand volatility, it is important to note that the business area depends, in part, on the launch of public tenders for public infrastructures (e.g. bridges, airports, train stations). Within the scope of public tenders, Martifer is subject to complex regulatory demands, specific to each country, namely in matters concerning the presentation of the proposals and the preparation of complex administrative documentation files to satisfy the project specifications defined by the contracting entity, that may represent additional costs. It is to be highlighted that, despite the said dependence on public tenders, Martifer has been able to win deals not subject to public tender, thereby reducing its exposure to this risk.

Under supplier risk, Martifer Construções, as a specialist in engineering projects, relies very often on subcontractors, who may fail in the execution of their work and jeopardize, through a domino-effect, the meeting of project delivery deadlines. In other words, there is also a risk of delays in delivering the projects, with the inherent contractual penalties.

Finally, in terms of external risks, and considering that the area of Metallic Constructions is strongly correlated with the economic growth and with gross fixed capital formation, it is therefore sensitive to the current economic environment. Accordingly, the worsening of the sovereign debt crisis in Europe also raises other problems, namely the austerity plans that imply severe transversal cuts in public investment and the significant decrease in liquidity throughout the financial system, which often causes highly attractive projects to be shelved due to lack of capital.

In order to mitigate these risks, the metallic construction area diversified its projects throughout different geographies, namely by entering markets that register stronger growth in the construction sector, such as Angola, Brazil and Algeria, or even visiting countries such as Saudi Arabia, which will allow to compensate both the effects of economic recession in Portugal and the economic slowdown in Europe.

b) Solar

In the turn-key solar PV park installation activity, end-client delays in obtaining the necessary licences or unanticipated delays in the delivery of equipment may disrupt the calendars initially foreseen for the completion of the projects. Despite the fact that this type of delay usually carries no contractual penalties, in some cases this situation can constitute a risk for the Group given the planning difficulties it may present.

Additionally, the financial market crisis has been hampering the promoters’ access to funding, resulting in the postponement of some projects. The diversification of the business throughout the value chain and the diversified client portfolio, inside and outside the Group, is in the process of being adopted and should reduce the possible impact of this situation.

The solar PV modules produced by the company are traded with a 5-year warranty and a 25-year performance warranty. As a result, this sector is exposed to the risk of warranty claims years after the sale of the equipment. Accordingly, any quality or performance problems that may occur can result in high costs. The performance of solar systems is also guaranteed in respect of the modules acquired for the construction of solar parks; however, the group’s responsibility, in this case, is diminished in that there is a right of recourse vis-à-vis the suppliers.

Page 98: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

98 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

On the other hand, most of the equipment used in the production of solar PV modules is customized for specific raw materials, with a resulting dependency risk on key raw material suppliers. The Group has sought to mitigate this risk by establishing long-term contracts for some raw-materials, carrying out a meticulous selection of suppliers and working towards garnering a diversification of suppliers for each of the relevant raw-materials of the production process.

c) RE Developer

The productivity indices associated with the renewable energy business depends on the volume of energy produced by the wind farms and their profitability. These factors depend on the location of the wind farms and on the seasons of the year (seasonality). Given that the wind turbines are only driven when the wind velocity is within specific parameters, and these depend on the supplier and the type of turbine, if the said velocity is not within the parameters or if it is at the lower end of the limits, the energy production of the wind farms will suffer a reduction.

The readiness and power curve of each turbine is contractually guaranteed, with indemnities being payable by the suppliers for situations where their readiness is not satisfied or the power curve is not attained.

This risk is also mitigated through the geographical distribution of the wind farms, allowing for the set-off of the wind velocity variations on each farm and ensuring the relative stability of the volume of total energy produced.

LICENCING:

Wind farms and solar parks are subject to rigorous regulations in matters such as the development, construction, licensing and operation. If the relevant authorities in the jurisdictions in which the Group operates stop or reduce their support for the development of wind farms and solar parks, such actions may have a significant impact on the activity.

xxviii) Legal Risk Management

Martifer is subject to the national and local laws and regulations in the various geographies and markets where it operates, which aim to assure, amongst others, worker rights, protection of the environment and spatial planning and the maintenance of an open and competitive market. Thus, the legal and regulatory changes that affect the conditions conducive to the development of the Groups’ activities and, consequently, prejudice or impede the attainment of the strategic objectives require the Company to adapt to the new regulatory realities.

The management of legal risk is carried out by the legal department of the holding company and of each of the Group’s business areas and is monitored within the scope of reviews performed by internal legal and fiscal service providers dedicated to the respective activities, which operate in the dependence of the Board of Directors and management, conducting their work in articulation with the other fiscal and financial departments, so as to assure the protection of the Company’s interests and, ultimately, the stakeholders’, in strict compliance with their legal duties.

The members of the legal departments and internal advisory service providers referred to above have specialized formal qualifications and undergo regular formal training and updating.

Legal and fiscal advisory services are also assured, nationally and internationally, by external professionals, selected amongst reputable firms and in accordance with the highest standards of competence, ethics and experience.

3. INFORMATION BY BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Group bases its disclosure of information on the primary segments of its internal organisation for management purposes.

The Group is organised in two business areas: ‘Metallic Constructions’ and ‘RE Developer’, that are coordinated and supported by Martifer SGPS, SA.

The Metallic Constructions business area includes all the construction activities involving metal mechanical constructions, aluminium and glass façades, infrastructures for oil & gas and naval industry. The RE Developer segment includes the promotion and development of renewable energy projects, with special emphasis on the wind sector.

The amounts presented in ‘Other’ are related to the services rendered by Martifer SGPS, S.A., Martifer Inovação e Gestão S.A. (MIG) and Martifer Gestiune Si Servicii, S RL (MIG RO).

In September 2014, the Group started to classify the solar business unit (composed by Martifer Solar, SA and its subsidiaries) as a non current asset held for sale. Since the requirements of IFRS 5 were fulfilled, the contribution to Martifer’s consolidated results, coming from this segment, is presented in an autonomous line in the Consolidated P&L and the values YoY were adjusted to allow comparison. The breakdown of these contributions are in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Note 28).

The accounting policies used in the preparation of the information by each business segment are the same as the ones used in the preparation of the attached financial statements (Note 1).

On 31st December 2014 and 2013, the breakdown of sales and services rendered by primary segments is as follows:

188,907,997 272,632,258 The sales and services rendered in the ‘Metallic Constructions’ segment decreased by 30 % to Euro 178 million in 2014, due to the difficulties felt in the sector, mainly in Europe. The Group is focused in reverting this trend through internationalization, turning to emerging countries.

On 31st December 2014 and 2013, the earnings before interest, taxes, amortization, provisions and impairment losses (EBITDA), the earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) and the profit after tax by primary segment are as follows:

EBITDA EBIT PROFIT AFTER TAX

FY 2014 FY 2013 FY 2014 FY 2013 FY 2014 FY 2013

Metallic Constructions (7,284,819) (18,731,186) (51,393,311) (34,608,778) (68,411,237) (54,188,284)

This decrease in EBITDA results mainly from the reduction of the EBITDA in RE Developer, which had significantly contributed to the Group’s EBITDA in 2013, with the sales of wind farms performed in that financial year.

In Metallic Constructions, the EBITDA at the end of 2014 amounted to Euro -7 million, showing a 63 % improvement, which compares with Euro -19 million in 2013. The EBITDA in 2014 was not only affected by the deterioration of market conditions in Europe (with effects on margins), but also by the entrance costs in new markets and delays in some projects.

In RE Developer, the EBITDA reached Euro 13 million in 2014, showing a 64 % decrease when compared with the previous year, essentially justified by the fact that the sales of wind farms in 2014 had a lower impact than the sales in the previous year, but also affected by the reduction of MWs in operation and by the negative impact of the instability in the Romanian market in the performance of the Babadag wind farm.

188,907,997 272,632,258

In 2014, sales and services rendered decreased 31 %, when compared with 2013, to Euro 188 million. This decrease was influenced primarily from the reduction of activity in Portugal and Saudi Arabia, mainly in the Metallic Constructions segment.

Other operational gains 3,572,572 17,084,911

Total 36,911,006 47,306,455

The amount of ‘Own work capitalized’ in 2014, as in the previous year, is essentially related to the construction of infrastructures in the Metallic Constructions segment.

On 31st December 2014 ‘Capital Gains in non-financial assets’ include the profit arising from the sale of 100 % of shares in the company Rosa dos Ventos Geração e Comercialização de Energia, SA, for the total amount of Brazilian Real 70.3 million to the Brazilian company CPFL. The sale was agreed on 18 June 2013.

On 31st December 2014 the reversal of ‘other impairment losses’ is the result of an impairment constituted in previous periods in Martifer Construções, related with the Sostanj (Slovenia) and the Manheim (Germany) projects, of the client Alstom (note 11).

The caption ‘foreign exchange gains’ is related with exchange variations in non financial transactions, mainly in non-Euro Zone Group companies (note 1).

In 2013, ‘Other operational gains’ included the profit arising from the formalization, in November 2013, of the disposal Martifer Renewables, SGPS, S.A., of the ‘Option to Buy Rights’ it held in respect of the shares of the company MS Participações Societárias, SA, to Banco Santander (Brasil), SA.

Zo.o. This disposal, agreed to on 30 September 2011, was subject to compliance with certain terms and conditions defined in the contract, namely the conclusion of the Rymanów project, a wind farm with 13 turbines, in the region of Podkarpackie, being developed by Wiatrowa.

10,022,077 45,306,732 55,328,809 In 2014, this caption decreased when compared with 2013, as a consequence of the decrease in sales and of the stock reduction policy.

7. SUBCONTRACTORS On 31st December 2014 and 2013, costs with subcontractors were as follows:

FY 2014 FY 2013

Subcontractors 33,997,204 72,546,228

33,997,204 72,546,228

The subcontracts are related with construction works carried out mainly in the ‘Metallic Constructions’ segment, and the decrease in the amount in 2014 is a direct consequence of the reduction in sales.

8. EXTERNAL SUPPLIES AND SERVICES The breakdown in external supplies and services on 31st December 2014 and 2013 was as follows:

FY 2014 FY 2013

Transportation of goods 6,633,487 15,812,225

Other 2,980,819 2,536,552

48,387,513 66,032,041 In general, a decrease of external supplies and services is verified, following the sharp reduction of activity in 2014 and the Group’s effort to reduce costs.

The decrease of ‘Transportation of goods’ in 2014 is directly related to the decrease in sales and the decentralization of the production activity, in the Metallic Constructions segment from the Iberian Peninsula to other markets, namely Brazil and Saudi Arabia, with the consequent cost reduction in maritime transportation.

‘Specialized works’ include costs with auditing, consulting, information systems, studies and reports, highlighting, in the RE Developer segment, consulting costs associated with the sale of Rosa dos Ventos.

Others 797,176 2,543,611

36,573,865 5,084,160

In 2014, the caption ‘Provisions for onerous contracts’ is mainly related to estimated responsibilities associated to possible contractual obligations in the operational activity of the Metallic Constructions segment, constituted throughout the year, and most of them already materialized in 2014.

The reinforcement of provisions for ‘Legal claims in progress’ is mainly due to a provision in Martifer Construções for an indemnity to Alstom related to the Sostanj (Slovenia) and the Manheim (Germany) legal claims. This indemnity was agreed and paid in 2014.

12. NET FINANCIAL RESULTS The net financial results for the years ended on 31st December 2014 and 2013 may be analysed as follows:

managing company OXY CAPITAL – SOCIEDADE DE CAPITAL DE RISCO, S.A., which brought the Group’s shareholding position down from 49 % to 10 %. This operation was approved by the Portuguese Competition Authority in September 2013.

By the end of the first half of 2014, following the agreement signed in 2013, Martifer SGPS, SA reduced its stake in PRIO ENERGY SGPS, SA to 5 %, this reduction has no impact on the 2014 results.

The captions ‘Foreign exchange gains / (losses)’ are essentially related with exchange variations registered in non-Euro Zone Group companies (Note 1).

‘Other financial income’ in 2014 concern mainly to the agreement signed in November between Martifer SGPS and Barclays which refers to the Contract for Organization, Placement, Registry and Subscription Guarantee of Commercial Paper, which has resulted in a Euro 4.25 million debt relief.

The ‘other financial expenses’ concerns mainly with bank commission costs.

13. GAINS / (LOSSES) IN ASSOCIATE COMPANIES AND JOINT ARRANGEMENTS On 31st December 2014 and 2013, the gains and losses in associate companies and joint-ventures were as follows:

Variation on deferred tax assets of provisions not accepted for tax purposes mainly result from the annulment of deferred taxes in the ‘RE Developer’ segment in Spain.

Reduction of deferred tax assets of tax losses is primairily due to annulment of deferred taxes in the ‘Solar’ segment in the USA, included in ‘Result from discontinued operations’ (note 28).

Deferred tax assets and liabilities, by geographical segments, are as follows:

Of the amount of deferred tax assets related with tax losses booked on 31st December 2014 totalling Euro 4,556,170, approximately 45 % were generated in Portugal and expire in 2015. The Group recognized these deferred tax assets related with tax losses values based on projections realized for the each business activity, demonstrating that positive taxable net profits will be generated to ensure their recoverability.

The decrease in deferred tax assets and liabilities is mainly due to the classification of the Solar segment as a non current asset held for sale (note 28). According to tax returns and tax estimates of the companies that recognize deferred tax assets in respect of tax losses carried forward, on 31st December 2014 and 2013, using tax rates applicable on those dates, the relevant details are as follows:

On 31st December 2014, the deferred tax assets and liabilities were, respectively, Euro 4,720,190 and Euro 930,496 (2013: Euro 14,360,132 and Euro 1,494,669, respectively), with a negative impact on the income statement of Euro 1,681,071 (2013, on a comparable basis, meaning, without Solar: positive impact of Euro 2,187,032).

In 2014, deferred tax assets recognized on tax losses were annulled in what concerns risks of recoverability materialized, based on projections made by the respective businesses. We highlight the value of deferred taxes in the Solar segment, concerning the activity in the USA, included in ‘Result from discontinued operations’ (note 28).

On 31st December 2014 and 2013, taking into consideration the Portuguese tax legislation applicable to dividends, no deferred tax liabilities were recorded for the timing differences arising on the appropriation of the results of affiliated companies, due to their immaterial effect on the accompanying financial statements.

The reconciliation between current tax and income tax is summarized as follows:

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 117

In 2014, Martifer SGPS and its companies located in Portugal are individually taxed and are subject to a tax rate of 23 % in terms of corporate income tax (‘Imposto sobre o Rendimento das Pessoas Colectivas’ or IRC), increased by a municipal surcharge that can reach 1.5 % of the taxable profit.

Additionally, on the portion of taxable profits above Euro 1,500,000 and not exempt from corporate income tax (IRC), the following additional state surcharges are applied: 3 % on the amount above Euro 1,500,00 and up to Euro 7,500,00; 5 % on the amount above Euro 7,500,00 and up to Euro 35,00,00; and 7 % on the amount of of taxable profits which exceed Euro 35,000,000.

According to Article 88 of the Tax Code ‘Imposto sobre o Rendimento das Pessoas Colectivas’, Portuguese companies are also subject to autonomous taxes on some expenses, at tax rates defined in the code indicated.

During 2011, Martifer SGPS, SA opted for the special taxation of groups of companies’ mechanism (Regime Especial de Tributação de Grupos de Sociedades “RETGS”), which contemplates the companies in which it holds, directly or indirectly, at least 75 % of their capital and that simultaneously meet the other conditions set by that mechanism.

The remaining affiliated companies of the Group, not contemplated by this mechanism, are taxed individually, based on their taxable profits and the tax rates applicable.

After the changes in corporate income tax (IRC) for 2015, decreed on 31st December 2014, deferred taxes in Portugal were calculated based on a 21 % rate.

The net income generated by foreign subsidiaries is taxed at local tax rates, namely, those generated in Spain, in Poland, in Romania, in France, in Italy, in Belgium, in the United States of America, in Brazil and in the United Kingdom are taxed at 28 %, 19 %, 16 %, 34.43 %, 27.5 %, 33.99 %, 35 %, 16.5 % and 21 % respectively.

Additionally, the Polish tax authorities granted Martifer Polska an income tax relief, for a period of 19 years. However, as this tax benefit is directly related to future taxable income and its quantification is not possible, it has not been recorded.

According to the current tax legislation in Portugal, tax returns of Portuguese companies can be reviewed by the tax authorities for a period of four years (and five years for Social Security), except when tax losses have been generated, tax benefits have been granted or when any review, claim or impugnation is in course, under which circumstances the periods can be extended or suspended. Therefore, all annual tax returns for the year 2011 through 2014 are still open to such review.

As corroborated and supported by our lawyers, there are no material assets or liabilities associated with possible or probable tax contingencies or additional assessments by the Tax Authorities that should be disclosed in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements on 31st December 2014 and 2013.

On 31st December 2014 and 2013, income tax receivable and payable is as follows:

FY 2014 FY 2013

Income tax – Assets 744,905 1,779,777

Income tax – Liabilities - (3,278,785)

744,905 (1,499,008)

15. DIVIDENDS In 2014 and 2013, the Group did not distribute dividends.

16. EARNINGS PER SHARE Martifer SGPS, SA has only issued ordinary shares and, as such, no shares have special voting or dividend rights.

Martifer has just one type of potential ordinary dilutive shares: stock options. In order to calculate diluted earnings per share it is necessary to determine whether these stock options, irrespective of whether they are exercised or not, have a diluting effect, which happens when the option exercise price is lower than the average market price of the shares.

118 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

Since the average market price of Martifer’ s shares, during the period between 1st January 2014 and 31st December 2014, was Euro 0.69, below that of the exercise price of the stock options (Euro 3.84), these stock options are non-diluting because, if the options were to be exercised, the number of outstanding shares would be reduced.

Therefore, on 31st December 2014 there are no differences between the basic earnings per share and the diluted earnings per share calculation. The share capital of Martifer SGPS, SA is represented by 100,000,000 ordinary shares, fully paid up, representing a share capital of Euro 50,000,000.

The average number of shares outstanding is net of 2,215,910 shares corresponding to the volume of own shares acquired by Martifer SGPS, SA.

On 31st December 2014 and 2013, the basic and diluted earnings per share may be summarised as follows:

FY 2014 FY 2013

Profit for the year (I) (93,535,824) (68,961,164)

Weighted average number of shares outstanding (II) 97,784,090 97,784,090

Both the fair value allocation of the assets and liabilities acquired as well as the goodwill calculation were performed using the financial statements of the acquired companies at the date of acquisition.

The Group performs annual impairment tests on Goodwill, at the end of each year, as disclosed in the section ‘Main accounting policies, judgements and estimates’.

For impairment assessment purposes, Goodwill was allocated to the cash generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination within each operational segment. The recoverable amount for each cash generating unit was determined based on its value in use, using the discounted cash flow method, supported by the business plans drawn up by the persons in charge of each unit and approved by the Board of Directors of the Group. Different discount rates were used according to the risks inherent to each company.

On 31st December 2014, the methods and assumptions used in the identification, or not, of any impairment loss in the more significant amounts of Goodwill recorded by each of the segments in the accompanying financial statements, was as follows:

The Board of Directors, based on the discounted value of the provisional cash flows of the cash generating units of this business segment, discounted at the applicable rate, concluded that, on 31st December 2014, the carrying amount of the net assets, including Goodwill, did not exceed its recoverable amount.

The projected cash flows are based on the historic performance and on the expectations of efficiency improvements. Those in charge of this segment believe that (in a scenario of normality) a change in the main assumptions used in the calculation of the recoverable amount would have the impact shown on the following table:

The valuation criteria and depreciation rates used for tangible fixed assets are disclosed in captions iv) and v) of the section ‘Main accounting policies, judgements and estimates’ in Note 1 ‘Accounting Policies’.

The acquisition cost of Tangible fixed assets held by the Group, acquired under financial leases, ot 31st December 2014 amounted to Euro 31,299,257 and their carrying amount to Euro 24,260,626.

On 31st December 2014 and 2013, there were no tangible fixed assets pledged or mortgaged to financial institutions as guarantees for loans granted, except for those acquired through financial lease contracts or through Project Finance and those mentioned in Note 38.

During the year, the Group assessed the estimated recoverable amount of some tangible fixed assets, taking into account internal and external factors which indicated that some assets might be recorded at a value higher than their recoverable amount.

The assessment of impairment losses in tangible and intangible fixed assets of the Group was based on the business plans of the companies, using the assumptions described below.

Since the conditions of IFRS 10 are fullfiled, the transferred projects were evaluated at their fair value, based on the evaluation performed by Novogradac & Company LLP.

In 2014, this participation is included in the value of non current assets held for sale (note 28).

On 31st December 2014 and 2013, the movements occurring in this caption are as follows:

Total 7,798,516 41,282,069 In the end of the 1st half of 2014 Martifer SGPS, SA decreased its equity investment in Prio Energy SGPS to 5%. Since the company maintains a position in the Board of that associate, and consequently significant influence exists, the consolidation through equity method was kept. According to the share purchase agreement, the value of the participation will be reviewed again, in 2016, based on recurrent consolidated EBITDA in 2015.

Martifer Renewables, SGPS, SA agreed to the sale of the total shares of Eviva Gizalki, Sp. Zo.o. in 2014 with IKEA Retail Sp. Zo.o., implying the compliance of certain requirements set out in the contract. The terms of the contract, which implies that the company builds the wind farm until 2016, do not allow Martifer Renewables, SGPS, SA to maintain the control of the subsidiary but only significative influence in its management. As a consequence, the consolidation method changed from full consolidation to the equity method.

Financial investments are obtained at their recoverable amount, whenever there is evidence of impairment. The existence of impairment evidence is considered when the equity of the subsidiaries (considered, when applicable, consolidated equity) is below their purchase value.

22. AVAILABLE FOR SALE INVESTMENTS On 31st December 2014 and 2013, available for sale investments were the following:

The Group’s credit risk exposure is attributable, primarily, to accounts receivable from its operating activities. The amounts presented in the statement of financial position are net of accumulated impairment losses for doubtful debts, which have been estimated by the Group based on its experience, current conditions and the economic environment.

On 31st December 2014, the accounts receivable recorded as ‘Doubtful trade debtors’ was considered to be totally impaired.

For the remaining outstanding balances, the Group considers that there has been no deterioration of the credit capacity of the counterparts and, therefore, that such balances are not uncollectible.

The average collection period of the Group’s accounts receivable during 2014 was 355 days, the main factor behind this being the current economic environment. Despite this unfavourable environment, the Group is committed to the compliance with its credit risk policy, namely in terms of the criterious selection of given credit, both in quantity and in quality, as well the respective collection.

The Board of Directors believes that the amount recorded in the caption ‘Trade and other receivables’ is very similar to its fair value, considering, in particular, that the accounts receivables more than 180 days overdue are not expected to generate important losses in addition to the impairment losses recorded.

The Group does not charge any interest as long as the established collection period (on average 90 days) is being respected. After that period, interest is invoiced if contractually agreed, and in accordance with the applicable law, depending on each situation, which tends to occur only in extreme situations.

On 31st December 2014 and 2013 the non-current balances with related companies refer mainly to supplementary capital granted, bearing no interest and with no reimbursement date.

On 31st December 2014 and 2013, the Group does not have any ‘held-to-maturity’ financial assets or ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’.

As the sale is highly likely, Martifer Solar’s assets and liabilities were classified as “non-current assets held for sale” and “liabilities associated to non-current assets held for sale” respectively, being Martifer Solar’s Net Profit presented as “discontinued operations’ result” (the values YoY were adjusted to allow comparison).

On 31st December 2013, this caption also included assets and liabilities of the company Rosa dos Ventos Geração e Comercialização de Energias, SA, which has already been sold, as well as the lands and industrial building of Martifer Polska, Sp. Zo.o. from the Metallic Constructions segment.

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 135

The total value of Martifer Solar’s consolidated assets, on 31st December 2014, were Euro 143 million, being the contribution to the Group of Euro 143 million (on 31st December 2013 it reached Euro 254 million). The value of non-current assets totals Euro 70 million, being the contribution to the Group Euro 71 million (on 31st December 2013, Martifer Solar’s assets reached Euro 103 million).

Consolidated equity value of Martifer Solar on 31st December 2014 totalled Euro 6 milhões, being the contribution to the Group Euro 11 million (on 31st December 2013 Martifer Solar’s Equity reached Euro 74 million). The decrease is mainly due to the period’s net income.

Consolidated equity value of Martifer Solar attributable to the Group is Euro 14 million, being the contribution to the Group Euro 13 million.

Investment registered in 2014 was Euro 1 million, mainly explained by the development activities in new projects in Japan, in the UK, in France, in Chile and others.

The Net Debt registered on 31st December 2014 was Euro 58 million, Euro 7 million more than in 2013. Despite the debt being relatively controlled, the increase of only Euro 7 million arises from Capex financing needs and support to treasury in the American subsidiaries.

The Detail of the result attributable to discontinued activities on 31st December 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

As referred in the Management Report, revenues in 2014 suffered a sharp decrease YoY, mainly justified by the delay in projects in the UK and in Jordan, and also by the reduction of the activity in Portugal and in the Ukraine. This last one due to the political and military turmoil in the region.

The EBITDA is negative and strongly reduced when compared to 2013, mainly because of additional costs in the project in Mexico due to a partial destruction of the plant after a force majeure event, and in the USA where in January 2014 the subsidiaries Martifer Solar USA INC and Martifer Aurora Solar LLC incurred in Chapter 11. In the last quarter, following the “settlement, plan support and release agreement, with the consequent loss of control in these companies, they no longer integrated the consolidation perimeter, and the related non-recoverable assets’ loss was recognized.

The EBIT in 2014 was strongly affected by the high impairment loss registered in FTP Solar investment, a company created in 2013 by Martifer Solar, through its subsidiary Martifer Silverado Fund LLC, hedquartered in the USA, in partnership with Fir Tree Solar LLC. In the creation of this new company, Martifer Silverado Fund LLC delivered its capital by delivering projects under

136 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

development owned by it, as well as some associated liabilities, while Fir Tree Solar LLC, entered the share capital in cash. In 2014, C2E LLC sold its subsidiary Sustainable Power Group LLC (sPower LLC) to FTP Solar LLC (whose name was meanwhile changed to FTP Power LLC) in exchange of a share in this company, with the teams of sPower LLC and Silverado Power LLC (partner of Martifer Solar Inc at Martifer Silverado Fund I LLC) being merged. The shares held by Martifer Silverado LLC, Fir Tree Solar and S2E LLC in the company FTP Power LLC were, by the end of 2014, of 1.8 %, 95.9 % and 2.3 % respectively. Following an evaluation performed by an independent company, Reinvention Capital Advisors Co., an impairment of around Euro 20 million was registered in 2014 (in 2013 an impairment of Euro 0.7 million was registered).

These facts are the greatest contributors to the high losses registered in the last quarter of the year.

The Net Financial Expenses decrease in 2014 is explained by not recurring to financing from financial institutions in project Silverado. Its alienation occurred in the end of 2013.

The Net Profit is a consequence of the effects that conditioned EBITDA in 2014 and of the impairment and the provision following the activity in the USA, in Mexico, in Portugal and in Spain.

Detailed cash flows of discontinued activities on 31st December 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

FY 2014 FY 2013

Net cash generated by operating activities (2,927,493) 14,142,503

On 31st December 2014, the Group’s net debt was Euro 282,731,171. The net debt calculation includes, besides the borrowings mentioned above, ‘finance leases’, ‘derivatives’ and ‘cash and cash equivalents’. The decrease, when compared with 2013, is mainly due to the reclassification to liabilities associated to non current assets held for sale (Note 28).

The Group continues focused on reducing Net Debt; as such, it continues committed to the process of selling non-core assets: the solar segment, wind farms and, residually, the sale of real estate projects, throughout 2015.

Additionally, and considering the medium / long term nature of the investments made, the Group has sought to restructure its debt so it can follow the maturity of the associated assets, not jeopardising the obligations arising from its operational short-term activity.

Therefore, the Group expects to adequate the inflows maturity of the operational activity and investment (divestment) to the outflows of the financing activity.

By the end of 2014, the Group tried to restructure its debt by rescheduling maturities over time with the main financial institutions, extending the average loan maturity to make it more coincident with the permanence of its long term assets and a maturity that allows the cash surpluses to be sufficient to comply with its obligations.

The Group expects to conclude the negotiation process in the first half of 2015.

Other borrowings

The amount of ‘Other borrowings’ includes approximately Euro 2.7 million in obligations under finance leases (related to the financing of the real-estate projects recorded as ‘Work in progress’ – Note 19) which, in the event of the sale of the referred projects, will be settled at that moment and not in accordance with the established reimbursement plan, which contractually occurs after 2014.

This caption also includes Euro 7.8 million from a payment to a suppliers’ grouped credit line and Euro 5.5 million from short-term loans contracted in Brazil.

The caption ‘Other borrowings’ also includes the loans obtained from the Portuguese Agency for Foreign Investment and Commerce (Agência para o Investimento e Comércio Externo de Portugal - AICEP), Institute for Support to Medium and Small Companies and to Investment (Instituto de Apoio às Pequenas e Médias Empresas e ao Investimento - IAPMEI), as support for the investment carried out by the Group amounting Euro 2.2 million.

The average interest rates on borrowings, by geography, are as follows:

COUNTRY INDEX SPREAD

Spain Euribor [ 3.5 to 6.50 ]

Portugal Euribor [ 2.25 to 9.50 ]

Romania Robor [ 2.50 to 3.75 ]

Of all the borrowings, only about 6% of the bank loans bear a fixed interest rate. The fixed interest rates are in line with market rates. The remaining bank loans bear interest rates that are indexed to the market rates for the respective terms; it is therefore considered that the fair value of these borrowings is similar to their carrying amount.

32. TRADE PAYABLES AND OTHER PAYABLES On 31st December 2014 and 2013, trade payables and other payables may be analysed as follows:

NON CURRENT CURRENT

FY 2014 FY 2013 FY 2014 FY 2013

The balance of non-current ‘Trade payables’ is primarily related with retentions on work performed by external parties, which will be released at the end of the guarantee period. These amounts bear no interest.

On 31st December 2014 and 2013, this caption includes balances payable to suppliers resulting from the Group’s operating activities, as well as from tangible and intangible asset acquisitions. The Board of Directors believes that the carrying amount of these balances is very similar to their fair value and that the effect of the financial discounting of these amounts is not material. The reduction in this caption is the result not only of the reduction in activity, but also of the transference of the Solar segment to ‘Liabilities related with Assets held for sale’ (Note 28).

On 31st December 2014 and 2013, the ageing of accounts payable in the captions ’Trade payables’ and ‘Other payables’ was as follows:

The decrease in this caption results not only from the reduction in activity, but also from the transfer of balances of the Solar segment to ‘Liabilities related with Assets held for sale’ (Note 28).

The average payment period of the Group hovers around 485 days.

Accounts payable more than 180 days overdue relate to amounts payable to trade creditors with which the Group maintains regular commercial relations.

On 31st December 2014 and 2013, the non-current balances due to ‘associate companies and to other shareholders’ relate, primarily, to loans obtained from jointly controlled entities and associate companies, that bear interest at Euribor 3M increased by a 6.75 % spread.

Besides the financial liabilities previously disclosed and in Notes 30 and 31, also previously disclosed, the Group does not have any other financial liabilities.

Quality guarantee provisions were recorded to meet potential quality problems resulting from the Group’s operating activities. On average, quality guarantees have a 5 year limit. The provisions reflect a percentage of the construction value, which varies between 0.04 % and 0.18 %, depending on the business segment and the company. The value related to the Solar segment was transferred to ‘Liabilities related with Assets held for sale’ (Note 28).

In 2014, provisions for onerous contracts concern to estimated responsibilities associated to possible contract obligations in the operational activity of the Metallic Constructions segment.

The amount of other provisions at 31December 2014 includes approximately Euro 3 million of a provision recorded in companies Eurocab 12 to 19 about a dispute regarding the compliance of requirements in the application of the tariff regime that regulates the activity of production of electricity, in a special regime. It also includes provisions to estimate responsabilities associated with possible contractual obligations in operacional activities in approximately Euro 5 million.

As referred to in note 1, a provision for invesments in associate companies which capital is negative (based on the owned shareholding) was constituted.

Considering the uncertainties surrounding these provisions, as well as their nature, the Group did not financially discount these amounts.

34. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES On 31st December 2014, the contingent liabilities are as follows:

a) On 29th October 2009, Martifer Polska, in consortium with ‘Ocekon Engineering s.r.o.’ (Slovakia), concluded with Energomontaz – Południe S.A. an agreement for Works, whose object was the manufacture, execution, delivery and installation of the steel roof on the Baltic Arena Stadium in Gdańsk (Poland), in the approximate amount of Euro 11.3 million. On 2 September 2010, Martifer received a notice of the immediate termination of the agreement from Energomontaz – Południe S.A., without any prior warning. The main reason alleged for the termination were delays in the execution, which, in Martifer’s opinion, was totally unfounded and ultimately ineffective. On 17th December 2010, Martifer lodged an official lawsuit in the Court in Katowice, against Energomontaz. The amount of the lawsuit was approximately Euro 12.6 million, including

Page 145: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 145

interest, the cost of the capital involved and the damages caused to Martifer by the lack of cooperation. On 17th January 2012, Energomontaz - Południe SA lodged its legal suit against Martifer, involving Euro 5.8 million. Court hearings are in progress and Martifer Group has recognized in its financial statements impairment losses relating to the account receivable, production not invoiced and the executed bank guarantee; therefore it considers that this litigation risk is adequately covered in its financial statements. Meanwhile, the company Energomontaz has entered a bankrupcy process. In April 2013, Martifer submitted the list of claims, totalling Euro 16.9 million, to the insolvency administrator. To date, there is no information on the list of credits of the insolvency estate.

b) On 28th April 2011, the construction contract no. 3/Z/2011 was signed between Martifer Konstrukcje and Śląskie Centrum Logistyczne. On 15th May 2012, Sląskie Centrum Logistyczne S.A. levied Martifer Konstrukcje with a penalty of approximately Euro 540,000 since, in their opinion, Martifer was behind in terms of contract execution. This penalty was treated by the client as an amount due and deducted from the receivables balance. On 4th October 2012, Martifer Konstrukcje sp. z o.o. lodged with the Court in Gliwice an action against Śląskie Centrum Logistyki S.A., in which Martifer claims:

The amount of Euro 540,000 plus interest as of 2nd June 2012, for the non-payment of the invoice dated 27th April 2012, based on the construction agreement;

The amount of Euro 540,000 plus interest as of the date of the court case, as a penalty for delays in the completion of the final acceptance;

The amount of Euro 133,000 plus interest as of the date of the court case, as payment for additional work.

The Court hearings commenced in January 2014, and the Court of First Instance rendered the decision, on 10 July 2014, with the following terms:

Conviction to Śląskie Centrum Logistyczne to indemnify Martifer Konstrukcje with a total of Euro 51,436.32 plus interests counting from 27th October 2012;

Absolution on the remaining claims formulated by Martifer Konstrukcje; and Conviction to Śląskie Centrum Logistyczne to pay court fees totalling Euro 5,607.24.

The Value of the compensation attributed to Martifer Konstrukcje is related to the payment of additional work. Martifer Konstrukcje did not conform itself with this decision and interposed na appeal on 3rd September 2014, not being, to date, scheduled the appeal trial hearing.

c) Martifer signed, on 1st August 2014, an investment agreement denominated “Agreement”, related with a Euro 30 million investment in Nutre, SGPS, SA to be performed by a company to be owned in 80 % by Ceres Invesment, and within which, depending on certain conditions, Martifer sells its 49 % share held in Nutre, SGPS, SA’s share capital. The closing of the transaction occurred on 19th December 2014, when 50 % of the investment was executed by Ceres Investments. However, all documentation related to the investment and transfer of shares was in custody of a Notary until the date Ceres Investments executes the remaining investment, of Euro 15 million, which occured in January 2015. According to the investment agreement mentioned above, Martifer SGPS, SA is responsible, in proportion to the sold share, for the payment of compensations to third parties due by Nutre SGPS SA or any of its subsidiaries, in case they are condemned and the amount of compensation exceeds an accumulated total of Euro 500,000, with a maximum of Euro 14.7 million, by facts that occurred before the date of the investment agreement, and on a 3 year period after the closing of the operation. To date, Martifer SGPS SA was not notified of any occurrence from which may surge the obligation to compensate the acquirer of its share on Nutre SGPS, SA, as indicated above.

The Group's expectation is that no losses will occur with these processes over and above the ones already recognized in its financial statements.

148 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

The fair value valuation of the derivatives contracted by the Group (essentially interest rate swaps) was performed by the respective financial institutions acting as counterparties. The fair value valuation model used by the counterparties is based on the discounted cash flows method, using the swaps par rates, listed in the Interbank market, and available on Reuters and/or Bloomberg terminals, for the negotiated periods, which are used to calculate the forward interest rates and discount factors. The present value of the fixed cash flows (fixed leg) and the present value of the variable cash flows (floating leg) are then calculated. From the addition of the two legs results the NPV (Net Present Value or discounted value of the future cash flows or fair value of the derivatives).

166 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Euros since this is the main currency of the Group’s operations. The financial statements of Group companies expressed in foreign currency were translated to Euros in accordance with the accounting policies described in Note 1 xv).

In the preparation of the consolidated financial statements, in accordance with IAS/IFRS, the Group’s Board of Directors adopted certain assumptions and estimates that can affect the assets and liabilities reported, as well as the profits and losses incurred in the reporting periods (Note 1 xxvi)). All the Board of Directors’ estimates and assumptions were performed taking into consideration the best knowledge available at the financial statements’ approval date, and the informations available on that date.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared for appreciation and approval by the annual Shareholder’s General Meeting. The Board of Directors has approved them for issuance, on 31 March 2015, and believes that these will be approved without any changes.

MAIN ACCOUNTING POLICIES, JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES

The main accounting policies, judgements and estimates used in the preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the years presented are as follows:

i) Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets are classified as held for sale when their value is recovered through a sales transaction as opposed to through their continued use or when the Company loses control over a significant operational unit. However, such classification requires that the sale transaction be highly probable, that the asset is available for immediate sale, that the Board of Directors is committed to its sale and that it occurs in the short period (normally, but not exclusively, in the space of one year).

Non-current assets classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of their carrying value or realisable value net of selling expenses, and the depreciation of fixed assets affected to an operational unit held for sale is interrupted during the related period.

ii) Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired by the Company are stated at their acquisition cost, net of accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and are only recognized if it is probable that future economic benefits will flow from them to the Company, their value can be reliably measured and if they are controlled by the Company.

Intangible assets comprise mainly software and other industrial property rights, which are depreciated on a straight-line basis over a 3 year period.

iii) Tangible fixed assets

Tangible assets are recorded at their acquisition cost, net of depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

The depreciation rates used correspond to the following estimated useful lives:

Transportation equipment 4 years Office equipment 3 to 5 years

Maintenance and repair costs that neither increase the useful life nor create significant improvements in tangible fixed assets are recognized as costs in the year in which they are incurred.

iv) Financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets and liabilities are recognized in the balance sheet when the Company is a contractual party to the instrument.

a) Financial instruments:

The Company classifies financial assets in the following categories: ‘Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’, ‘Borrowings and receivables’, ‘Held-to-maturity investments’ and ‘Available-for-sale financial assets’. The classification depends on the intention inherent to the investment’s acquisition.

Page 167: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 167

The classification is made at the initial recognition date and re-appreciated on a quarterly basis.

- Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: this category is divided into two sub-categories: ‘financial assets classified as held for trading’ and ‘financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss’. A financial asset is classified under this category, namely, if it is acquired for the purpose of selling it in the short term. Derivatives are also classified as instruments held for trading, except if designated as an effective hedging instrument. Financial instruments in this category are classified as current if they are held for trading or if it is expected that they are going to be realized within twelve months from the balance sheet date;

- Held-to-maturity investments: this category includes financial assets, non-derivative, with fixed or variable reimbursements with a fixed maturity, and which the Board of Directors intends to hold to maturity

- Available-for-sale financial assets: these include financial assets, non-derivative, that are designated as available-for-sale or those that are not and cannot be classified in the preceding categories. This category is classified as non-current, unless the Board of Directors has the intention to sell the investment within 12 months from the balance sheet date.

Held-to-maturity investments are classified as non-current investments, unless their maturity is less than a year from the balance sheet date. Financial assets designated by the Group at fair value through profit or loss are classified as current.

All purchases and sales of financial instruments are recognized on the trade date, irrespective of the date of the financial settlement.

These financial assets are initially measured at cost, which is the consideration paid for them, and include transaction costs in the case of available-for-sale investments.

After the initial recognition, financial assets valued at fair value through profit or loss and the available-for-sale investments are re-valued at their fair values with reference to their market value at the balance sheet date (measured by their quoted price or through an independent valuation), without regard for any transaction costs that may be incurred until their sale. Financial assets not quoted and in respect of which it is not possible to reliably estimate their fair value, are maintained at acquisition cost less impairment losses.

Gains and losses resulting from a change in the fair value of the ‘available–for-sale financial assets’ are recognized directly in equity, under the caption Fair value reserves until the investment is sold, received or in any way alienated, or until the fair value of the investment falls below the acquisition cost and this corresponds to an imparity, at which moment the accumulated gain or loss is recognized in the income statement.

Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of ‘Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ are recognized in the income statement, under the caption ‘Gains/losses in financial assets’.

‘Held-to-maturity investments’ are recorded at their amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, net of capital repayments and interest received.

Investments in subsidiaries and associated companies, as laid down by IAS 27, are valued at acquisition cost net of impairment losses.

b) Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivable amounts have no implicit interest and are recorded at their nominal value less any impairment losses, recognized in the allowance account ‘Accumulated Impairment losses’, in order to reflect their net realization value.

c) Borrowings

Borrowings are recorded as liabilities at the nominal value received, net of up-front fees and commissions relating to the issuance of these instruments. Financial expenses are calculated based on the effective interest rate and are recorded in the income statement on an accruals basis.

d) Trade and other payables

Accounts payable, which do not bear interest, are recorded at their nominal value which is substantially equivalent to their fair value.

e) Financial liabilities and equity instruments

Page 168: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

168 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified based on their contractual substance. The Company classifies as equity instruments those contracts that evidence a residual interest of the Group in a group of assets after deducting a group of liabilities.

f) Derivatives

The Company uses derivative instruments solely to manage its exposure to financial risks by hedging these, and not with a trading objective. The use of derivative instruments has been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

The derivative instruments used by the Company, classified as cash-flows hedges, are exclusively related to the hedging of interest rates on loans obtained. The loan amount, interest maturity and loan reimbursement plans inherent to the hedging instrument are in all respects similar to the established conditions for the contracted loans, resulting in perfect hedges.

Interest rate derivatives (Cash-flow hedges) are initially recorded at cost, if any, and subsequently re-valued at their fair value. The portion of the changes in the fair value of derivatives effectively covered are deferred in the statement of comprehensive income in the caption ‘Fair value reserves – Derivatives’, being transferred to the income statement in the same period that the hedge instrument affects the income statement. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the income statement, when determined.

Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold. When a hedging instrument no longer qualifies for hedge accounting the cumulative gain or loss that was deferred in the statement of comprehensive income in the caption ‘ Fair value reserves – Derivatives’ is transferred to the income statement for the period and the subsequent revaluations of the derivative are also recorded in the income statement.

v) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash at banks, term deposits and other treasury operations with a maturity under three months, readily convertible to a known amount of cash, and which are subject to insignificant value changes.

vi) Revenue recognition and accrual based accounting

Revenue and expenses are recorded in the period to which they relate, regardless of their date of payment or receipt. The captions of ‘Other accounts receivable’, ‘Deferred expenses’ and ‘Other accounts payable’ include expenses and income relating to the current period, where payment and receipt will occur in future periods, as well as payments and receipts in the current period but which relate to future periods.

Dividends from investments are recognized when the Company’s right to receive them has been established.

Interest revenue is accrued on a time basis, with reference to the principal outstanding and the effective interest rate applicable for the operations.

vii) Balances and transactions expressed in foreign currency

All the assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency, using the official exchange rate at the reporting date. The exchange differences, favourable or unfavourable, originating from the differences between the exchange rates at the transaction dates and those used at the collection, payment or at the balance sheet date, are recognized at their gross amount as gains and losses in the income statement.

viii) Income Taxes

The Income tax charge for the period includes current and deferred tax, in accordance with IAS 12. Current tax is calculated based on the taxable profit, in accordance with the local tax laws applicable to the location where the Company has its registered office.

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base used in the calculation of taxable profit as well as in respect of some fiscal credits attributed to the Company, and it is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates and based on the tax legislation expected to apply in the period in which the differences reverse, and evaluated annually using tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at each balance sheet date.

Page 169: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 169

Deferred tax assets are generally recognized to extent that there is a reasonable probability that taxable profits will be available against which to offset them. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

The deferred tax amount that results from transactions or events recognized directly in equity is registered directly in equity as well, not affecting the net income for the period.

ix) Interest charges on borrowings

Borrowing costs incurred with borrowings are recorded in the income statement on the accrual basis.

x) Provisions

Provisions are recognized when, and only when, the Group has an existing obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the said obligation. These provisions are reviewed at each balance date and are adjusted to reflect the best estimate at that date, taking into consideration all the risks and uncertainties inherent to such estimates. When a provision is determined using the future cash flows estimated to settle the existing obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.

xi) Impairment of assets

The Company reviews the carrying amounts of its assets at each balance sheet date or whenever there is any indication (an event or alteration of circumstances) that these assets may have suffered an impairment loss. When the asset carrying amount is greater than its recoverable amount an impairment loss is recognized and recorded in the caption ‘Provisions and impairment losses’. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less selling costs and value in use. The fair value less selling costs is the amount that can be obtained in an arms-length transaction. Value in use is calculated by assessing the estimated future cash flows to be generated by the asset and its residual value, all discounted to their present value. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

The reversal of impairment losses recorded in previous years is recognized when the underlying reasons that caused that entry are no longer applicable and, consequently, the asset is no longer impaired. The reversal of impairment losses is recognized in the income statement as an operational result. However, the reversal of an impairment loss is only recognised up to the amount that would be recorded using the historical cost, or the revalued amount, net of amortization and depreciation, if the impairment loss had not been recorded in previous years.

Bonus payments are recorded in the period to which they relate.

xiii) Statement of financial positions presentation

xv) Cash Flow Statement

The cash flow statement is prepared, using the direct method, in accordance with IAS 7. The Company classifies as ‘Cash and cash equivalents’ treasury operations which mature in less than three months, readily convertible to a known amount of cash, and which are subject to insignificant value changes.

The cash flow statement is classified by operating, investing and financing activities. Operating activities include cash receipts from clients, cash payments to suppliers, cash payments to and on behalf of employees and other operating activities’ payments and receipts. Investing activities’ cash flows include, essentially, payments and receipts related with the acquisitions and sales of tangible and intangible assets.

Financing activities’ cash flows include, essentially, payments and receipts of loans and borrowings, financial lease contracts and dividend payments.

xvi) Subsequent events

Events occurring after the balance sheet date that provide additional information about conditions existing at the balance sheet date (adjusting events), are recognized in the financial statements. Events occurring after the balance sheet date that provide information on conditions occurring after the balance sheet date (non-adjusting events), if material, are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.

xvii) Judgements and estimates

In preparing the financial statements the Board of Directors used its best knowledge and accumulated experience of past and current events in making certain assumptions as to future events.

The most significant accounting estimates reflected in the financial statements for the periods ended at 31 December 2013 and 2012 include:

- Impairment analysis of financial assets; - Recording of provisions and impairment losses; - Fair value of financial instruments; and - Recognition of deferred tax assets in respect of reportable tax losses.

Estimates used are based on the best information available during the preparation of the financial statements. However, events may occur in subsequent periods that, not being foreseeable, were not considered in these estimates. Changes to the estimates that occur after the date of these financial statements, will be recognized in net income, in accordance with IAS 8, using the prospective methodology.

xviii) Financial risk management

Uncertainty, a characteristic of the financial markets, translates into a number of risks to which the activities of the Martifer Group are exposed, namely price risk, currency risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.

a) Currency risk

Currency risk is the possibility of registering gains or losses resulting from the changes in the foreign exchange rates between different currencies. The Company’s exposure to currency risk results from the existence of foreign based subsidiaries in countries with a currency other than the Euro and of transactions between these subsidiaries and other Group companies and the existence of transactions made by companies operating in currency other than the reporting currency of the Group.

The currency risk management policy of the Company aims to reduce the sensitivity of its income statement to foreign exchange rate variations.

b) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk reflects the possibility of changes in future interest charges in loans borrowings obtained as a result of changes in market interest rate levels.

Page 171: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

ANNUAL REPORT 2014 171

The Company relies on external financing to fund its activity and it is exposed to interest rate risk as a significant part of its borrowings are indexed to market interest rates.

In the more significant long term loans the Company relies on fixed interest rate loans or uses interest rate derivatives to hedge exposure to interest rate risk on these loans. The amounts, interest due dates and repayment schedules of the interest rate derivatives are identical to those of the loans they hedge and, as such, these derivatives are considered perfect hedges.

c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk reflects the prospect of the Company not satisfying its financial responsibilities with the available financial resources.

The main objective of liquidity risk management policy is to ensure that the group has at its disposal at any time the sufficient financial resources to meet its responsibilities and proceed with strategy outlined, honoring all commitments with third parties, through proper management of the relation cost - maturity of debt.

In addition, and given the nature of medium / long-term investments made the Group sought to restructure the debt so that it may accompany maturity of the associated assets, without compromising the commitment resulting from its short-term operational activity.

In this respect, the Group intends to match the maturity of inflows from operating activity and (dis) investment to outflows from financing activity.

In the end of 2014, the Group sought among the major financial institutions restructure its debt through rescheduling of maturity over time, extending the average maturity of debt to make it more consistent with the degree of permanence of its long term assets and a maturity to enable that cash surpluses are adequate to meet its responsibilities.

The Group expects to complete the negotiation process during the first half of 2015.

The financial management monitors the implementation of risk management policies set by the management to ensure that the economic and financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with such policies.

d) Credit risk

The Company’s credit risk results fundamentally from its relationship with financial institutions, occurring within the scope of its normal activity, associated with the potential default, by the financial institutions, with which it has contracted, in the regular course of business, term deposits, current accounts and derivatives.

To mitigate this risk, the Company diversifies its counterparties, to avoid an excessive concentration of credit risk, and privileges the contracting of less complex financial instruments in detriment of instruments which structure is not fully known.

At the end of 2014, impairment losses on shares, amounting to Euro 119 million, were recorded, resulting from the impairment test performed on those assets.

The values of these evaluations are determined by past performance and the expectation of market development, with future cash-flow projections, for a five year period, being drawn up for each of the businesses, based on medium/long term plans approved by the Board of Directors.

These estimates were made considering a discount rate and a growth rate as mentioned on Note 11.

Martifer SGPS, S.A. and its subsidiaries are subject to corporate income tax (IRC) at the normal rate of 25. In addition, a municipal surcharge, in this case of 3% is also applied. When the taxable profit subject to corporate income tax is between € 1,500,000 and € 7,500,000 there is an additional state surcharge of 5% and for the amount above of € 7,500,000 applies a taxe rate of 7%.

In terms of article 88 of the Corporate Tax Code, the company is, additionally, subject to autonomous tax over a number of expenses, at the rates laid down in the said Code.

Since January 2011, Martifer SGPS, SA is covered by the “RETGS”, which comprises companies in which it holds, directly or indirectly, at least 75% of its capital and meet simultaneously with the other conditions set by that mechanism. The remaining Martifer Group companies, not covered by the special tax mechanism, are taxed individually, based on their taxable profit and at the applicable tax rates.

In accordance with the legislation in force, tax declarations remain subject to review and adjustment by the tax authorities during a period of four years (five years for social security), except when there are tax losses, fiscal benefits were conceded, or inspections, claims or impugnations are underway, in which cases, depending on the circumstances, the period is extended or suspended. Consequently, the tax declarations for the years 2011 through 2014 may be subject to review.

The payment of 36 instalments regarding the IRC 2013 in the total amount of Eur 512.042, and that on noncurrent liabilities is considered Eur 290.125, is underway based on an agreement with the Tax Authority.

The Board of Directors believes that any adjustments resulting from reviews/inspections by the tax authorities will have no significant impact on the financial statements at 31 December 2014.

8. EARNINGS PER SHARE Martifer SGPS has issued solely ordinary shares so there are no special dividends or voting rights.

Martifer has a single type of potentially dilutive ordinary share: share options. To calculate the diluted earnings per share it is necessary to determine whether these options, regardless of whether they may or not be exercised, have a dilutive effect, which occurs when the option exercise price is lower than the quoted share price.

176 ANNUAL REPORT 2014

Considering that Martifer’s quoted share price averaged Euro 0.69 between January 1, 2014 and December 31, 2014, which is lower than the option exercise price (Euro 3.84), the latter can be considered non-dilutive as their exercising would result in a reduction in the ordinary shares in circulation.

Hence, at 31 December 2014 there is no difference between the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation.

Martifer SGPS SA’s share capital is represented by 100,000,000 ordinary shares, totally subscribed and realized, representing a share capital of Euro 50,000,000.

The weighted average number of shares in circulation is reduced in 2,215,910 shares, corresponding to own shares acquired by Martifer SGPS.

At 31December 2014 and 2013, the calculation of earnings per share, basic and diluted, may be demonstrated as follows:

FY 2014 FY 2013

Net profit for the period (I) (121,612,930) (49,379,995)

Weighted average number of shares in circulation (II) 97,784,090 97,784,090

On 31st December 2014 the caption decreased due to the sale of NUTRE SGPS, S.A. Eur 19,6 million regarding the sale of the participation in Nutre to CERES AGRICULTURE HOLDINGS COOPERATIEF U.A. as a result of the fact that in the contract of sale mentions that the amount will be received in 2016.

The financial investements are measured as to its recoverable amount whenever there are impairment indicators, being considered for evidence whenever the Equity of subsidiaries (considering the consolidated equity whenever applicable) is lower than their acquisition value. Based on this principle, we identified indicators of impairment in the shareholdings in Martifer Inovação e Gestão, S.A., Martifer Metallic Constructions, SGPS, S.A., Martifer Energy Systems, SGPS, S.A., Martifer Global, SGPS, S.A. The impairment tests performed consider the following assumptions:

To Martifer Global, SGPS, S.A. it was considered, as a valid indicator, the amount of consolidated and individual Equity, respectively, and, as a consequence, impairment losses of Euro 122.280 (Note 5). Concerning Martifer Inovação e Gestao S.A., there is no impairment calculations since they are irrelevant.

This assumption is justified by the fact that these companies render services to the group and the amount of its assets is not significant.

For the shareholdings of Martifer Metallic Constructions, SGPS, S.A., Martifer Energy Systems, SGPS, S.A., it was considered adequated to assess its recoverable amount based on the value in use, using a discounted cash flow method, supported by the business plans drawn by the people in charge of each business unit and approved by the respective Board of Directors and using different discount rates according to the risks inherent to each business.

At 31 december 2014, it was recorded impairment losses in Martifer Metallic Constructions, SGPS, S.A. and Martifer Energy Systems, SGPS, S.A. of Euro 97.869.828. The methods and assumptions used in the identification, or not, of any impaiment losses to these financial assets were as follows:

For the cases in which it was apured impairment loss, carrying amount was adjusted to the use value resulting from impairment loss test.

12. Restrictions on the right to vote

The Company Articles of Association do not establish any percentage or maximum limit regarding the exercising of voting rights by any shareholder. The Company has not issued preference shares without voting rights.

The Shareholders’ General Meeting is, therefore, comprised of shareholders holding Martifer shares, each share carrying one vote.

Shareholders can participate provided they hold shares, at the least, up to five days prior to the date set for the General Meeting, and provided these shares are registered in their name in securities’ accounts.

Up to three days prior to the date set for the General Meeting, a certificate, issued by the relevant entity, shall be presented to the Company as proof of ownership of the shares. In the event of suspension of the General Meeting, the Company does not require the blockage of the shares for the full suspension period; instead, compliance with the ordinary notice period for the first meeting suffices.

Shareholders may be represented at Shareholders’ General Meetings by way of a written proxy mandate addressed to the Chairman of the General Meeting Board. Said mandate may also be sent by electronic mail in accordance with the respective Shareholders’ General Meeting convening notice instructions.

Shareholders may also exercise their vote by correspondence on all matters subject to approval at the General Meeting.

The proposals to be submitted for approval at the General Meeting, as well as the other information necessary for the preparation and participation at said meetings are made available to the shareholders up to 21 days prior to date of the General Meeting, at Martifer’s registered office and in the Company’s Website. Such documentation can be consulted in the Company’s Website at http://www.martifer.pt/. In addition to the Company’s Website, said documentation is also made available to shareholders, for consultation, at the company’s registered office during working hours, as well as in the CMVM’s Information Disclosure System (www.cmvm.pt), as from the date the convening notice is issued. The Company’s Website also discloses the minutes of the General Meetings within five days following said meetings.

Martifer has been applying and implementing measures to promote and encourage shareholder participation in general meetings:

− Postal vote;

− Availability of proxy letters and voting ballots in the Company’s Website;

− Disclosure in the Website, in Portuguese and English languages, of the general meeting convening notice, the different forms of

voting and the procedures to adopt for correspondence voting or for voting through a proxy;

− Disclosure in the Website, in Portuguese and English languages, of the preparatory documentation relating to the various points

on the Agenda;

− The creation of an internet email address, publicised in the convening notice, exclusively dedicated to the general meeting, in

order to facilitate the clarification of any doubts.

I. definition of the strategy and general policies of the Company; II. definition of Martifer Group corporate structure; and III. taking of decisions that should be considered strategic given their amounts, risk or special characteristics, the exclusion of the

b) Functioning

22. Availability and place where rules on the functioning of the Board of Directors may be viewed The Board of Directors’ Organisational and Functional Regulation is presented in Martifer’s Website at – www.martifer.pt (Tab: Investors, Section: Corporate Governance/Articles of Association).

23. The number of meetings held and the attendance report for each member of the Board of Directors The Board of Directors meets regularly, once per quarter and, as defined in the Articles of Association and in the respective Regulation, whenever the Chairman or two board members call a meeting; valid resolutions being passed with the attendance or representation of a majority of its members.

Without prejudice to the above and considering the fact that the Chairman of the Board of Directors accumulates the position of Executive Director, the Board of Directors’ Regulation sets forth that the non executive directors may, even so, conduct meetings, when such meeting is called by a non-executive director on his own initiative or at the request of any two of those directors, for the purposes of exercising their powers of monitoring, supervising and appraising the activity of the members to whom the Board of Directors delegated powers.

To that end, and in order to safeguard the exercising, in an independent and informed manner, of the powers of the non-executive directors referred to in the previous paragraph, the following mechanisms and procedures were instituted by the Board of Directors and enshrined in its Regulation:

(i) obligation to deliver to the directors sans delegated powers all the information considered necessary or convenient and that is requested by them of the Company or of any of the directors with delegated powers;

(ii) the satisfaction of the requests of directors with no delegated powers shall be made in an appropriate and timely manner; (iii) possibility of any non-executive director requesting the calling of meetings so that non-executive directors can exercise the

powers attributed to them; and (iv) the specialised committees with monitoring, supervisory and appraisal competencies over the activities of the directors with

delegated powers shall be presided and largely composed of directors with no delegated powers.

During the 2014 financial year, no constraints were detected regarding the management and operations of the Company; it can therefore be considered that the mechanism that assures the coordination of the work of the non-executive directors is safeguarded.

In 2014, the Board of Directors met eight times. The minutes are written up and signed by the Directors and the Company Secretary and recorded in the respective minute book, with copies also being sent to the Chairman of the Supervisory Board.

The attendance level of each Director at said meetings, in the conduct of his respective duties, was as follows:

NAME OF DIRECTOR ATTENDANCE

Carlos Manuel Marques Martins (Chairman of the BD) 100%

Jorge Alberto Marques Martins (Vice Chairman) 90%

Mário Rui Rodrigues Matias 100%

Arnaldo José Nunes da Costa Figueiredo 90%

Luis Filipe Cardoso da Silva * 80%

Luis António de Castro de Valadares Tavares * 90%

Jorge Bento Ribeiro Barbosa Farinha* 80%

* The director justified his absence and was represented by another director at the respective meeting, as per proxy letter issued to the effect.

Martifer’s supervisory model is based on a Supervisory Board and a Statutory Auditor (ROC).

c) Powers and duties

37. Description of the procedures and criteria applicable to the supervisory body for the purposes of hiring additional services from the external auditor

The Company’s External Auditor has been the company PricewaterhouseCoopers & Associados, SROC, SA (PwC) since the 2010 financial period. The change in External Auditors followed a market consultation that year, which was the object of analysis and assessment by the Supervisory Board.

Services falling outside the statutory and external audit scope requested by Martifer Group companies from the External Auditor and from other entities belonging to the same network, in 2014, do not attain relevant amounts. The Supervisory Board approved the engagement of services outside the scope of the statutory and external audit from the External Auditor, considering that these services, in addition to not exceeding a relative weight in excess of 30% of the total services rendered to the Company, do not impair the External Auditors’ independence.

Additionally, any new service to be rendered by PwC and its companies (national or international) to the Martifer Group is subject to the prior approval of both the management of Martifer and the PwC Partner responsible for the PwC work at the Martifer Group, within the scope of its quality control system.

Martifer’s Supervisory Board, within the scope of its supervisory duties vis-à-vis the company’s activity, has analytical and appraisal responsibilities over the more significant aspects of the relationship with the External Auditor, namely in aspects relating to the independence of its work. During 2013, the Company’s Supervisory Board appraised the activity carried out by the External Auditor, having concluded that it was conducted in a manner consistent with applicable regulations and norms, and that it had acted with technical rigor, transparency and elegance.

The Supervisory Board furthermore reflects, whenever necessary or adequate in function of developments at the Company or the market configuration in general, on the adequacy of the External Auditor vis-à-vis the performance of the duties attributed to it.

38. Other duties of the supervisory body

In addition to the duties described in the previous point, the Supervisory Board has the powers set forth in law and in the Articles of Association, amongst others, those relating to the monitoring of the Company’s operations, the compliance with the applicable legislation, Articles of Association and regulations, as well as to issue opinions on the budget, the balance sheet, the inventories and the annual financial statements.

Hence, in exercising its powers and carrying out its duties, the Supervisory Board proposes to the General Meeting:

− Nominates the Company’s effective and alternate Statutory Auditors;

− Monitors the Statutory Auditors’ independence, namely in respect of the rendering of additional services and the scope of these, and in respect of the statutory audit of the Company’s financial statements;

− Examines, whenever it considers convenient and with regularity, the Company's bookkeeping;

− Monitors the Company’s activity and compliance with the applicable laws, Articles of Association and regulations;

− Represents or arranges to represent itself at the Board of Directors’ meetings whenever it considers such presence convenient;

− Requests the call of the Shareholders’ General Meeting whenever it considers such call convenient;

− Examines situations periodically presented to it by the Board of Directors during its term of office;

− Issues opinions on the budget, the balance sheet, the inventories and the annual accounts.

The Supervisory Board is also responsible for representing the Company vis-à-vis the External Auditor, and for:

− proposing the supplier of these services and the respective remuneration;

Page 210: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

210 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2014

− ensuring that conditions adequate for the rendering of these services are made available at the Company;

− annually appraising the services rendered as well as for acting as the Company’s go-between, receiving, simultaneously with the Board of Directors, the respective reports; and

− proposing the destitution of the External Auditor with just cause.

Finally, Martifer’s Supervisory Board is responsible for inspecting and assessing the effectiveness of the risk management systems and monitoring of the activity of internal audit, including the functioning of the systems of internal control and risk management, both the object of regular monitoring and evaluation by the Supervisory Board within the scope of its functional and legal powers, as can be inferred from the minutes of the meetings and the annual report and opinion issued by the Supervisory Board.

The Company’s External Auditor is the company PricewaterhouseCoopers & Associados, SROC, SA (PwC) registered under no. 9077 at the Comissão de Mercado de Valores Mobiliários (CMVM), pursuant to a contract initially celebrated for that financial year, and which has been extended to the 2014 financial year.

PwC has, since 2010, been represented by Mr Herminio António Paulos Afonso.

43. Indication of the number of years that the external auditor and respective partner that represents same in carrying out these duties have consecutively carried out duties at the company and/or group

As better described in the previous point, the External Auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers & Associados, SROC, Lda. and the respective statutory auditor partner representing the prior in the conduct of its duties, have exercised said duties consecutively at the Company since 2010, ie around 5 years.

44. Rotation policy and schedule of the external auditor and the respective partner that represents said auditor in carrying out such duties

In so far as a rotation schedule of the External Auditor is concerned, the Martifer Group has no formal policy regarding External Auditor rotation.

The Supervisory Board carries out an annual assessment of the External Auditor’s work, ensuring compliance with those laid down in Article 54 of Decree-law no. 487/99, of 16 November (amended by Decree-law no. 224/2008, of 20 November), relating to the rotation of the partner responsible for the execution of the work.

Nevertheless, both the External Auditor and its partner, a Statutory Auditor representing it in the carrying out of said duties, are still in a second term of office in the Company, and therefore complying with the rules presently in force.

45. Details of the Board responsible for assessing the external auditor and the regular intervals when said assessment is carried out

The Supervisory Board, in the conduct of its functions, carries out an annual assessment of the External Auditor’s independence. Additionally, the Supervisory Board, throughout each financial period and whenever necessary or adequate in function of developments in the activity of the Company or the general market configuration, reflects on the adequacy of the External Auditor vis-à-vis the conduct of its duties.

46. Details of services, other than auditing, carried out by the External Auditor for the Company and/or companies in a control relationship and an indication of the internal procedures for approving the recruitment of such services and a statement on the reasons for said recruitment

In addition to auditing services, tax advisory services in respect of foreign companies and a due diligence in respect of an affiliate were carried out for the Company and/or the Group’s companies.

The approval and recruitment of the services rendered by the External Auditor, other than the auditing services, was based on the procedures described in Point 37, it being understood that said recruitment occurred due to the lack of internal resources at the relevant company.

The Supervisory Board approved the engagement of services outside the scope of the statutory and external audit from the External Auditor, considering that these services, in addition to not exceeding a relative weight in excess of 30% of the total services rendered to the Company, do not impair the External Auditors’ independence.

Additionally, any new service to be rendered by PwC and its companies (national or international) to the Martifer Group is subject to the prior approval of both the management of Martifer and the PwC Partner responsible for the PwC work at the Martifer Group, within the scope of Martifer’ s quality control system.

C. INTERNAL ORGANISATION

I. ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

48. Rules governing amendment to the Articles of Association (Article 245-A/1/h))

Martifer’s Articles of Association do not contain special rules regulating amendments to the same; being, thus, applicable the rules laid down in the CCC. Hence:

− Constitutive quorum: the provisions laid down in Article 383 of the CCC apply. At a first meeting, for a Shareholders’ General Meeting to pass resolutions on amendments to the Company’s Articles of Association, the presence, or representation, of shareholders holding at least one third of the company’s share capital is required;

II. REPORTING OF IRREGULARITIES

49. Reporting means and policy on the reporting of irregularities in the company

The policy on the reporting of irregularities defines the Ethics and Conduct Committee as the entity responsible for the reception and management of denunciations or reports of irregularities, without prejudice to the Supervisory Board’s own powers in this matter.

In complement to the Supervisory Board, the Committee pursues, applies and follows up on the procedures underlying the denunciation of internal irregularities, affording the appropriate internal treatment to the denunciations and reporting of irregularities and ensuring the rapid resolution of the facts denounced.

In this manner, Martifer Group seeks to create conditions that allow any employee to freely report his concerns on these matters to the Ethics and Conduct Committee and to facilitate the early detection of irregular situations that, being practiced, could damage the Martifer Group, as well as its stakeholders.

Any notification, reporting or denunciation of irregularities occurring internally at the Martifer Group is forwarded directly in a special mail box, which can be accessed solely by the President of the Ethics and Conduct Committee. The anonymity and confidentiality are assured whenever so requested in the report or denunciation. This channel was considered the most appropriate and independent means for the reception of denunciations, without prejudice to those being received through the post.

The direct reporting of irregularities to the Supervisory Board, and all those that are of the exclusive competence of the Supervisory Board, are likewise immediately reported to that body’s President by the President of the Ethics and Conduct Committee.

During 2014, no irregularities were reported to the Martifer Group’s Ethics and Conduct Committee.

The Company’s reporting and denunciation of irregularities policy is disclosed in the Company’s Website at http://www.martifer.pt/, as well as in the Company’s intranet site.

Martifer’s reporting of irregularities policy applies to the entire Martifer Group perimeter.

The composition, functioning, attributions and powers of the Risk Committee are described in Point 29 above, and can be consulted in the Company’s Website at http://www.martifer.pt/ (Tab: Investors, Section: Corporate Governance / Articles of Association).

Supervisory Board

The assessment of the risk management and control systems constitutes a matter which is the object of regular analysis and discussion by Martifer’s Supervisory Board, within the scope of the framework of its legal powers.

External Audit

As part of its duties it evaluates the risks subjacent to the reliability and integrity of the accounting and financial information, reporting on same to the Supervisory Board.

Internal Audit Department

Martifer has in its organisational structure an Internal Audit Department that carries out its activities with the purpose of assessing the effectiveness and efficiency of the internal control system and of the business processes throughout the Martifer Group, in an independent and systematic manner, that verifies whether the assets at Martifer Group level are duly recorded and sufficiently protected against risks and losses, that examines and evaluates the accuracy, the quality and the application of operational, accounting and financial controls, promoting effective control at a reasonable cost and proposing measures that reveal themselves to be necessary to overcome potential weaknesses detected in the internal control systems.

Martifer’s internal audit department reports functionally to Mr. Jorge Bento Ribeiro Barbosa Farinha, a non-executive, independent director sitting on the Company’s Board of Directors.

The scope of the audits to be conducted in order to assess the quality of the control processes that assure compliance with the objectives of the Internal Control System, namely those that guarantee the efficiency of the operations, the reliability of the financial

Page 215: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2014 215

and operational reports and the respect for the law and regulations, is defined annually. Internal control deficiencies are reported up the hierarchy, the gravest matters being reported directly to the Board of Directors.

The activities of the Internal Audit Department, including the functioning of the internal control and risk management systems, are regularly monitored by the Company’s Supervisory Board whilst supervisory body, within the scope of its functional powers, namely those foreseen in paragraph i) of Article 420 of the CCC. It should be pointed out that the Company’s Supervisory Board meets regularly, fully complying with all its duties and attributions, as can be inferred from the minutes of the meetings and from the Supervisory Board’s annual report and opinion.

Planning and Management Control and Consolidation and Reporting Departments

Martifer also has a Planning and Management Control Department that, supported by the Company’s information systems produces, monitors and analyses management information, raising questions at unit level.

The consolidated financial statements are prepared by Martifer’s Consolidation and Reporting Department, which guarantees consistency in the application of the accounting policies adopted.

It should be highlighted that the risks subjacent to the reliability and integrity of the accounting and financial information are also assessed and reported on as part of the activities of the Statutory and External Auditors.

It should also be pointed out that there is an Ethics and Conduct Code and a system for the reporting of irregularities, which fosters Martifer Group’s control culture.

51. Details, even if through the inclusion of an organisational chart, of hierarchical and/or functional dependency in relation to other boards or committees of the Company

Regarding hierarchical or functional dependency amongst the corporate bodies and departments responsible for the implementation and monitoring of the internal control systems, better described in the preceding point:

− The Risk Committee is a specialised committee constituted by the Board of Directors, formed primarily by non-executive members of the Board of Directors and/or the Supervisory Board, and is chaired by an independent director;

216 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2014

53. Details and description of the major economic, financial and legal risks to which the company is exposed in pursuing its business activity

FINANCIAL RISKS

A) PRICE RISK

The volatility of raw material prices constitutes a risk for the Group, both in metallic construction and solar. The changes in the price of steel and aluminium impact the operational activity of the metallic construction and the changes in solar panel prices can also influence solar activity. Martifer has sought to mitigate this risk the same way in both areas, meaning, by including clauses in its contracts with customers that allow it to pass on raw-material price fluctuations and by negotiating fixed prices for large scale projects with its suppliers.

B) CURRENCY RISK

Currency risk reflects the possibility of registering gains or losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rates between different currencies. The Group’s internationalization forces it to be exposed to currency risk from different countries.

Exposure to currency risk results mainly from operational activities (in which expenses, income, assets and liabilities are expressed in a currency other than the reporting currency of the Group), from transactions between these subsidiaries and other Group companies and from the existence of transactions with external parties made by the operational companies in a currency other than the reporting currency of the Group.

The Group’s currency risk management policy aims to reduce the sensitivity of its results to exchange rate variations.

Subsidiaries, in their day-to-day operational activities, seek to use their local currency. Likewise, loans contracted by foreign subsidiaries are preferably denominated in their local currency.

Concerning exchange rates hedging, hedges are sporadic as its costs are considered, sometimes, excessive in the face of the level of the risks involved. However, whenever considered suitable, the Group contracts exchange rates hedging, in order to cover the risk.

Usually, operations on exchange rates are only performed when they are to be used in covering risks in pre-existing or contracted positions and the coverage terms are negotiated in order to fit the terms of the covered instrument, to maximize the coverage efficiency.

C) INTEREST RATE RISK

Interest rate risk reflects the possibility of changes in future interest charges on loans contracted due to the evolution of market interest rate levels.

The cost of financial debt contracted by the Group is indexed to short term base rates, reviewed with a one year or less frequency, plus a negotiated risk premium. Therefore, variations in interest rates may affect the Group’s results.

The Group’s exposure to interest rates is related to financial liabilities contracted with a fixed and/or floating rate. In the first case, the Group faces a risk of fair value variation on these assets or liabilities, since every change in market rates involves an opportunity cost. In the second case, such change has a direct impact in interest value, consequently causing variations in cash.

By the end of 2014, medium and long term debt exposed to a fixed rate was 1.75 % (98.25 % floating rate), which compares with 3 % (fixed rate) and 97 % (floating rate) in 2013.

Page 217: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2014 217

In the more significant long-term loans, the Group relies, when it considers it appropriate, on fixed interest rate loans or uses interest rate derivatives to hedge exposure to interest rate risk on the said loans. The amounts, interest due dates and repayment schedules of the loans underlying the interest rate derivatives are identical to those of the loans they hedge, and, as such, are considered perfect hedges.

At the end of 2014, the Group sought to renegotiate premium risk rates (spread) with financial institutions in order to allow for a lower exposure to interest rate risks and, consequently, meet the treasury resources stipulated in the restructuring plan.

D) LIQUIDITY RISK

Liquidity risk reflects the Group’s ability to satisfy its financial responsibilities with the available financial resources.

The main goal of the liquidity risk management program is to ensure that the Group has available, at any time, the financial resources to satisfy its responsibilities and pursue the outlined strategies, honouring all its obligations towards third parties, through an adequate management in financing cost/maturity ratio.

Additionally, and considering the medium/long term nature of the investments made, the Group has sought to restructure debt so it can follow the maturity of the associated assets, not jeopardising the obligations arising from its operational short term activity.

Therefore, the Group expects to adequate the inflows maturity of the operational activity and investment (divestment) to the outflows of the financing activity.

By the end of 2014, the Group tried, with the main financial institutions, to restructure its debt by rescheduling maturities over time, extending the average loan maturity to make it more coincident with the permanence of its long term assets and a maturity that allows the cash surpluses to be sufficient to comply with its obligations.

The Group expects to conclude the negotiation process throughout the first half of 2015.

E) CREDIT RISK

The worsening of the worldwide economic conditions and the escalation of the adversities facing local, national and international economies can influence Martifer Group’s clients’ default rate, with possible negative impacts on the Group’s results.

The Group is subject to credit risk in the operational activity – Clients and other receivables.

Aware of this reality, the Group seeks to evaluate all its clients’ credit risk in order to establish credit limits, with the ultimate purpose of ensuring the collection of the amounts due within the periods negotiated.

With this objective in mind, the Group uses credit rating agencies, regularly analyses risk and credit control, and collects from and manages cases in litigation, procedures which are all considered essential to manage the credit conceded and to minimize the risk of credit default.

OPERATIONAL RISKS

A) METALLIC CONSTRUCTION

Operational risks in the Metallic Construction area, which also incorporated the energy equipment area as from 2011, are currently divided into three sources of risk – client, supplier and external risk, which, in turn, is sub-divided into specific problems.

Page 218: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

218 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2014

Under client risk one can identify, for example, issues at the contractual level, such as the lack of convergence in the interpretation and application of the contractual dispositions, the distaste or dissatisfaction with the service/product and also the risk of non-payment of the price stipulated following the delivery of the projects.

In terms of demand volatility, it is important to note that the business area depends, in part, on the launch of public tenders for public infrastructures (ex. bridges, airports, stations). Within the scope of public tenders, Martifer is subject to complex regulatory demands, specific to each country, namely in matters concerning the presentation of the proposals and the preparation of complex administrative documentation files to satisfy the project specifications defined by the contracting entity, that may represent additional costs for the Martifer Group. It is to be highlighted that, despite the said dependence on public tenders, Martifer has been able to win business not subject to public tender, thereby reducing its exposure to this risk.

Under supplier risk, Martifer Construções, as a specialist in engineering projects, relies very often on subcontractors, who may fail in the execution of their work and jeopardize, through a domino-effect, the meeting of project delivery deadlines. In other words, there is also a risk of delays in delivering the projects, with the inherent contractual penalties.

Finally, in terms of external risks, and considering that the area of Metallic Construction is strongly correlated with economic growth and with gross fixed capital formation, it is therefore sensitive to the current economic environment. Accordingly, the worsening of the sovereign debt crisis in Europe also raises other problems, namely the austerity plans that imply severe transversal cuts in public investment and the significant decrease in liquidity throughout the financial system, which often causes highly attractive projects to be shelved due to lack of capital.

In order to mitigate these risks, the metallic construction area diversified its projects throughout different geographies, namely by entering markets that regiter stronger growth in the construction sector, such as Angola, Brazil and Algeria, or even visiting countries such as Saudi Arabia, which will allow to compensate both the effects of economic recession in Portugal and the economic slowdown in Europe.

B) SOLAR

In the turn-key park installation activity, end-client delays in obtaining the necessary licences or unanticipated delays in the delivery of equipment may disrupt the calendars initially foreseen for the completion of the respective projects. Despite the fact that this type of delay usually carries no contractual penalties, in some cases this situation can constitute a risk for the Group given the planning difficulties it can present.

Additionally, the financial market crisis has been hampering the promoters’ access to funding, resulting in the postponement of some projects. The diversification of the business throughout the value chain and the diversified client portfolio, inside and outside the Group, in the process of being adopted should reduce the possible impact of this situation.

The solar photovoltaic modules produced by the company are traded with a 5-year warranty and a 25-year performance warranty, as a result of which this sector is exposed to the risk of warranty claims years after the sale of the equipment. Accordingly, any quality or performance problems that may occur can result in high costs. The performance of solar systems is also guaranteed in respect of the modules acquired for the construction of solar parks; however, the group’s responsibility , in this case, is diminished since there is a right of recourse vis-à-vis the suppliers.

On the other hand, most of the equipment used in the production of solar photovoltaic modules is customized for specific raw materials, with a resulting dependency risk on key raw material suppliers. The Group has sought to mitigate this risk by establishing long-term contracts for some raw-materials, carrying out a judicious selection of suppliers and working towards garnering a diversification of suppliers for each of the relevant raw-materials of the production process.

C) RE DEVELOPER

The productivity indices associated with the renewable energy business depends on the volume of energy produced by the wind farms and its profitability, factors that depend on the location of the wind farms and on the seasons of the year (seasonality). Given that the wind turbines are only driven when the wind velocity is within specific parameters, which parameters depend on the

Page 219: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2014 219

supplier and the type of turbine, if the said velocity is not within the parameters or if it is at the lower end of the limits, the energy production of the wind farms will suffer a reduction.

The readiness and power curve of each turbine is contractually guaranteed, with indemnities being payable by the suppliers for situations where their readiness is not satisfied or the power curve is not attained.

This risk is also mitigated through the geographical distribution of the wind farms, allowing for the set-off of the wind velocity variations at each farm and ensuring the relative stability of the volume of total energy produced.

LICENCING:

Wind farms and solar parks are subject to rigorous regulations in matters such as the development, construction, licensing and operation of power plants. If the relevant authorities in the jurisdictions in which the Group operates stop or reduce their support for the development of wind farms and solar parks, such actions may have a significant impact on the activity.

LEGAL RISKS Martifer is subject to the national and local laws and regulations in the various geographies and markets where it operates, which aim to assure, amongst others, worker rights, protection of the environment and spatial planning and the maintenance of an open and competitive market. Thus, the legal and regulatory changes that affect the conditions conducive to the development of the Groups’ activities and, consequently, prejudice or impede the attainment of the strategic objectives require the Company to adapt to the new regulatory realities.

The management of legal risk is carried out by the legal department of the holding company and of each of the Group’s Business Areas and is monitored within the scope of reviews performed by internal legal and fiscal service providers dedicated to the respective activities, which operate in the dependence of the Board of Directors and management, conducting their work in articulation with the other fiscal and financial departments, so as to assure the protection of the Company’s interests and, ultimately, the stakeholders’, in strict compliance with their legal duties.

The members of the legal departments and internal advisory service providers referred to above have specialized formal qualifications and undergo regular formal training and updating.

Legal and fiscal advisory services are also assured, nationally and internationally, by external professionals, selected amongst reputable firms and in accordance with the highest standards of competence, ethics and experience.

54. Description of the procedure for identification, assessment, monitoring, control and risk management

RISK MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

Risk Management is one of the components of Martifer’s culture, being present in all management processes and representing a responsibility of all managers and employees at the various levels of organisation.

Risk policy is defined by the Board of Directors based on the analysis and measurement of risk, which also coordinates and develops risk management processes in order to guarantee an integrated risk management streamlined with the strategy and objectives of the Group.

In parallel, Martifer continues to implement internal control and risk management procedures with the objective of reinforcing the integrated risk management, establishing a strategy for the prevention and management of risk transversal to the Group, so as to reduce

Page 220: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

220 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2014

exposure to risk and safeguard the value of the Group. The procedure is characterised, summarily, by the identification of the risks in each business area, accompanied, in parallel, by the formalisation of an assessment, management, prevention and mitigation of risk process, to be elaborated by the Company’s Board of Directors, supported by the Risk Committee.

Risk Management comprises the processes of identifying current and potential risks, analysing their possible impact on the strategic objectives of the organisation and estimating the probability of their occurrence, in order to determine the best way to manage exposure to these.

All these risks are duly identified, assessed and monitored, and it is the responsibility of the different structures in the company to manage and/or mitigate them.

Risk Management at Martifer Group starts at the operational company level, with the identification, measurement and analysis of the different risks to which it is subject, with special emphasis on risks of an operational and market nature, seeking to estimate the probability of the occurrence of the various factors that determine such risks and their potential impact on the business of the Company or activity in question.

Without prejudice to the definition of the risk strategy by Martifer’s Board of Directors, the persons responsible for the operations are also responsible for the implementation of risk control mechanisms, which are scrutinised by the competent Financial, Tax and Legal Departments.

The identification of the risks is a responsibility transversal to the different levels of the organisation, specific templates having been created to identify and categorise the main risks in each Business Area, as well as the new risks that may arise as the respective activities develop, including:

(i) economic and business risks, (ii) financial risks, and (iii) legal risks.

The Risk Committee is also responsible for the analysis and issuance of opinions, which are submitted to the Board of Directors on, amongst others, new Group investments above certain amounts and new geographies for Martifer Group’s activities.

The efficiency of these mechanisms is periodically assessed by the Holding Company, through the Internal Audit Department, during the execution of the audit plan covering the financial aspects, information systems, processes and conformity with the procedures approved. This audit plan is prepared and developed annually, based on a prior assessment of the business risks, the mechanisms and assessments of the internal audit department being monitored and verified by the Company’s Supervisory Board within the scope of its functional powers.

The function of Planning and Management Control also promotes and supports the integration of risk management in the companies’ planning and management control processes.

It is an objective of the Holding Company to obtain an integrated vision of the risks the Group faces in each of its different activities or business areas and to guarantee the consistency of the resulting risk profile with that of the Group’s global strategy and, in particular, to determine what it considers an acceptable risk level, given the structure of its capital.

To this effect, operations with the highest relevance and impact on Martifer Group, as well as those of a more financial nature are directly assessed and validated by the Financial, Tax and Legal Departments at the Holding Company level, in line with the policies and risk strategies set by management.

The documents comprising the half-yearly and annual reports are sent for the review and approval of the Board of Directors. Subsequent to their approval, these documents are sent to the External Auditor, who issues his legal certification of the accounts and the External Audit’s Report;

− The Statutory Auditor carries out both an annual audit and a limited review at the half-year of the individual and consolidated accounts, carried out in accordance with the Auditing Standards in force.

The Remuneration Setting Committee’s activity is dedicated to the preparation of master guidelines and the determination of the remuneration policy of the Company’s corporate bodies, to monitoring the execution of that policy and to guaranteeing the alignment of the actions of those bodies with the interests of the Company.

− Defining the remuneration policy of the Corporate Bodies of the Company, particularly of the executive members of the Board of Directors, fixing the criteria to determine the variable component of the remuneration;

− Determining the various components of the fixed and variable remuneration, possible benefits and complements, as well as the annual remuneration payable to the members of Martifer’s Corporate Bodies;

− Monitoring the performance of the executive members of the Board of Directors for the purposes of determining the variable remuneration;

− Monitoring the performance of the non-executive members of the Board of Directors;

− Submitting, in an advisory capacity, an informative exposition on the company’s remuneration policy to the annual General Meeting.

The Remuneration Setting Committee sporadically requests, if necessary, from Martifer’s internal departments (namely the Human Resources Department, the Planning and Management Control Department and the Legal Department) specialised information and data of a technical nature, amongst other, relating to the structure of the company, results of the Group and members and activities of the corporate bodies. The information requested and received by the Committee is aimed at the compilation of a body of information and technical data that permits the definition and implementation of the Group’s remuneration policy.

The information requested is provided free of charge, and the Committee has no need to hire persons, natural or legal, to carry out its duties.

The External Auditor is also obliged to verify the application of the policies described and the remuneration systems of the corporate bodies, being obliged to report any potential non-conformity detected to the Supervisory Board.

II. Remuneration Committee

67. Composition of the remuneration committee, including details of individuals or legal persons recruited to provide services to said committee and a statement on the independence of each member and advisor

The composition of the current Remuneration Setting Committee, elected at a Shareholders’ General Meeting for a three-year term of office (2012-2014), is as follows:

PRESIDENT António Manuel Queirós Vasconcelos da Mota

MEMBERS Maria Manuela Queirós Vasconcelos Mota dos Santos Júlia Maria Rodrigues de Matos Nogueirinha

The members of the Remuneration Setting Committee are independent of the management body, considering the explanation contained in the paragraph that follows.

During the 2014 corporate period, a member of the Remuneration Setting Committee – Ms. Júlia Matos – was also a member of a corporate body of a company, which share capital is held by two executive directors of the Company, namely Messrs Carlos Marques Martins and Jorge Marques Martins. However, the Company considers that the independence of the Remuneration Setting Committee is safeguarded not only because of the professional training of this member in particular, but also because of the fact that the remaining members of the Committee, which for the majority, are independent from the executive members of the management body of the Company.

No persons were hired to integrate the Remuneration Setting Committee.

III. Remuneration structure

69. Description of the remuneration policy of the Board of Directors and Supervisory Board as set out in Article 2 of Law No. 28/2009 of 19 June

The remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors and of the Supervisory Board of the Company is determined, in terms of the Articles of Association, by the Remuneration Setting Committee, which submits a annual document, for appraisal at the General Meeting, containing the general guidelines to be followed in establishing the specific amounts to attribute to the members of the various Corporate Bodies.

At the Company’s General Meeting of 28 April 2014, the remuneration policy of the management and supervisory bodies, prepared by the Remuneration Setting Committee, in compliance with Article 2 of Law no. 28/2009, of 19 June, and available in the Company’s Website at http://www.martifer.pt/ (Tab: Investors, Section: Corporate Governance /General Meeting), was discussed and submitted for approval.

In general terms, said remuneration policy of the management and supervisory bodies seeks to closely follow the CCC and the Portuguese Securities Market Commission’s Corporate Governance Code provisions applicable, this being reflected in the statement submitted for approval at the General Meeting referred to in the point that follows.

In defining the remuneration policy for the 2014 year, the legal provisions foreseen in (i) the CCC, namely in Article 399; (ii) Law 28/2009, of 19 June; (iii) the 2010 Corporate Governance Code issued by the CMVM; and (iv) the special regime laid down in the Company’s Articles of Association, were considered.

70. Information on how remuneration is structured so as to enable the aligning of the interests of the members of the Board of Directors with the Company's long-term interests and how it is based on the performance assessment and how it discourages excessive risk taking

Martifer’s remuneration policy aims to promote the convergence of the interests of the directors, those of the other corporate bodies and of the managers with the Company’s interests, namely those regarding the creation of value for the shareholder and real growth for the Company, privileging a long-term perspective.

Hence, the Committee structured the components of the remuneration of the Management bodies so as to reward their performance in achieving high and, simultaneously, sustained growth, discouraging, however, excessive risk-taking. Additional determining factors include the company’s economic situation and general market conditions practiced for equivalent functions.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2014 227

The remuneration of the executive members of the Board of Directors shall comprise a fixed and, when so deliberated by the Remuneration Setting Committee, a variable component, with the latter variable part of the remuneration to not exceed 5% (five per cent) of the results for the period, as laid down in law and in Article 20, no. 3 of the Articles of Association.

The informative principles observed by the Committee in establishing the remuneration are:

a) DUTIES CARRIED OUT, degree of complexity inherent to the duties, responsibilities attributed, time spent and the added value to the Company of the work produced. Other duties carried out at group companies are also relevant, in virtue of the increased responsibilities and of their constituting additional sources of revenue.

b) ALIGNMENT OF THE INTERESTS OF THE MEMBERS OF THE MANAGEMENT BODY WITH THOSE OF THE COMPANY, appraisal of the performance of the members of the management body and of the creation of value for the shareholders.

c) ECONOMIC SITUATION OF THE COMPANY, present and future, privileging the interests of the Company in the long-term term and the achievement of real growth for the Company and the creation of value for its shareholders, based on criteria defining the economic situation of the Company, amongst others, those of a financial nature.

d) GENERAL MARKET CONDITIONS FOR EQUIVALENT SITUATIONS, considering that the remuneration shall be aligned with market practice, permitting it to serve as a means to achieving high individual and collective performance, assuring the interests of the member but essentially those of the Company and of the shareholders.

The general guidelines governing the remuneration policy followed by the Remuneration Setting Committee during the 2014 financial period were those contained in the Remuneration Policy Statement, which was subject to resolution at the Company’s General Meeting of 28 April 2014, and which is attached to this report as Annex III.

71. Reference, where applicable, to there being a variable remuneration component and information on any impact of the performance appraisal on this component

As described in more detail in the preceding point the remuneration of the executive members of the Board of Directors shall comprise a fixed and, when attributed, a variable component.

The fixed component of the remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors with executive functions, as well as of the non-independent, non-executive members (when attributed), shall consist of a monthly amount payable fourteen times a year, the variable portion not being permitted to exceed five per cent of the results for the financial period, as laid down by law and in Article 20, no. 3 of the Articles of Association.

In setting all remuneration, including, namely, in distributing the total amount of the variable remuneration amongst the members of the Board of Directors, the general principles consigned above shall be observed: duties carried out, alignment with the interests of the Company, privileging the long-term, the situation of the Company and market criteria.

The process of attributing variable remuneration (VR) to the executive members of the Board of Directors shall follow the criteria laid down by the Remuneration Setting Committee, namely, their position in the hierarchy, the performance appraisal carried out, the company’s real growth, seeking in determining those criteria to strengthen the convergence of the interests of the Management bodies with those of the Company, privileging the long-term perspective, this perspective being considered in the performance criteria applied to Management. The following will therefore be decisive for the appraisal and mensuration of VR:

− the contribution of the executive directors to the results obtained;

− the profitability of the businesses from the shareholder perspective;

− the evolution of the share price quotation; and

− the extent to which the projects integrated and measured by the Balanced Scorecard of the Group are realised.

228 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2014

During the course of 2013, no contracts were celebrated, be it with the Company, or with third parties, which effects are to mitigate the risk inherent to the variable remuneration established by the Company for the members of the management board.

72. The deferred payment of the remuneration’s variable component, specifying the relevant deferral period

During the 2014 financial year, no variable remuneration was attributed to the directors of Martifer; consequently, the issue of deferral of this remuneration component did not arise. On the other hand, the Remuneration Policy of the management and supervisory bodies, drawn up by the Remuneration Setting Committee and approved at the General Meeting of 28 April 2014, does not foresee the deferral of variable remuneration, when attributed.

Therefore, during the relevant financial year the company’s directors did not receive variable remunerations and, consequently, the issue of deferral of this remuneration component did not arise.

73. The criteria whereon the allocation of variable remuneration on shares is based, and also on maintaining company shares that the executive directors have had access to, on the possible share contracts, including hedging or risk transfer contracts, the corresponding limit and its relation to the total annual remuneration value

Martifer’s existing Remuneration Plan in Stock Options was constituted and attributed in the 2008 corporate period, foreseeing the deferral of the exercising of the options for a period of 4 years; consequently, the exercising of the options related thereto expired during the 2013 corporate period.

Regarding the 2008 Plan, none of the directors exercised their option rights during the respective deferral period.

During the course of the 2014 corporate year, the Company neither implemented nor attributed another stock and/or stock options plan and, consequently, no variable remuneration was allocated on shares to the directors and no criteria were established for the maintenance of those shares by the executive directors.

74. The criteria whereon the allocation of variable remuneration on options is based and details of the deferral period and the exercise price

As better described in the preceding, and given that during the fiscal year 2014, the Company has not implemented, nor charge allocation of shares and / or share purchase option plan, point the Company considers this point not applicable.

75. The key factors and grounds for any annual bonus scheme and any additional non-financial benefits

The Company has neither implemented any annual bonus scheme nor any additional non-financial benefits.

TO BE SUBMITTED FOR APPROVAL OF THE GENERAL MEETING ON 28 APRIL 2014] Statement of the Remuneration Committee regarding the remuneration policy of the management and supervisory bodies (article 2 of Law no. 28/2009, of 19 June)

I - INTRODUCTION

In use of a legal right conferred by Article 399º of the Portuguese companies code (CSC), the Bylaws of Martifer SGPS, in its

article 20, delegate to a Remuneration Committee the powers to decide on the remunerations of the Management and

Supervisory Bodies of the Company.

According to the applicable provisions of the Articles of Association, the Remuneration Committee was appointed by the

currently is formed by:

António Manuel Queirós Vasconcelos da Mota (Presidente)

Maria Manuela Queirós Vasconcelos Mota dos Santos (Vogal)

Júlia Maria Rodrigues de Matos Nogueirinha (Vogal)

In order to promote a clear and legitimate fixing of the remuneration of corporate bodies, the Remuneration Committee, in

compliance with article 2 of Law 28/2009, of 19 June, hereby submits for approval of the General Meeting of Shareholders of

Martifer SGPS, S.A. of 28 April 2014, this declaration on the policy of remunerations of the Management and Supervisory Board.

This statement seeks to follow closely the applicable provisions of the CSC and the 2013 Corporate Government Code of

Comissão Mercado dos Valores Mobiliários (“CMVM”).

It is also relevant to point out that the present statement, more than mandatory by law, intends to be an important instrument

of good Corporate Governance, aiming the proper information of the shareholders, the protection of their interests and the

transparency of Corporate Governance in matters of remuneration of Corporate Bodies.

II – REGULATORY REGIME

In the definition of the remuneration policy to be established by the Remunerations Committee, were first taken into account

the legal provisions of CSC, namely in its article 399º; the Law 28/2009, 19 June, concerning the regime of approval and

disclosure of remunerations policy of the Management and Supervisory Bodies in Listed Companies, as well the 2013 Corporate

Governance Code of CMVM, in particular the provisions of Recommendation II.3.3.

In second place, it has also been taken into consideration, for the definition of the remuneration policy, the special regime

established in the Company’s Bylaws. The Portuguese Companies’ Code provides, in Article 399, the statutory scheme of

remuneration for the board of directors, which, in summary, establishes that:

Page 249: 01 | MARTIFER GROUPweb3.cmvm.pt/sdi/emitentes/docs/PC55067.pdf · 2014, following an investment proposal presented by Orchadia, S.A. group, the transference of the shares held in

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2014 249

- The setting of the remunerations is a responsibility of the General Shareholders' Meeting or by a committee appointed by it

for this purpose and shall take into account the duties performed and the economic situation of the company;

- The remuneration may be fixed or partially represent a percentage of the financial year´s profit, nevertheless the maximum

percentage allocated to the directors shall be authorized by a clause of the articles of association and shall not be levied on

the distribution of reserves or to any portion of the profits not legally available for distribution to the shareholders.

Regarding the members representing the Supervisory Board and the Board of the General Meeting the Portuguese Companies’

Code provides that remuneration shall consist of a fixed amount which is equally determined either on a General Shareholders'

Meeting or by a committee appointed by it for this purpose, taking into consideration each member's performance and the

company's economic situation.

Moreover, Articles 13 and 20 of the Articles of Incorporation state the following:

- The remunerations of the members of the Corporate Bodies shall be fixed by the Remuneration Committee;

- The General Meeting that elects the corporate bodies shall also elects the Remuneration Committee;

- As The remuneration of the Board of Directors may be formedby a fixed part and a variable one , the latter representing a

percentage that can never exceed five per cent of the net profits for the year; and

- The remuneration of the Supervisory Board shall consist of a fixed amount.

III – GENERAL PRINCIPLES

The Remunerations Committee pursues, in its remunerations policy, to promote the convergence of the interests of Directors,

other Corporate Bodies and Managers with the interests of the Company, namely shareholder value creation and real growth of

the Company, privileging here a long term perspective.

Pursuing this aspiration, and accordingly to the policy adopted in previous years, the Committee structured the integrant

components of the income of the Board of Directors in order to reward their performance, discouraging however excessive

risks-taking. This way, it is intended to promote a high-level sustained growth.

Finally, it is relevant to say that is determinant in this Committee’s mission the economic position of the Company as well the

general market practices for similar situations.

Specifying the general policy herein stated, we hereby present to the shareholders the principals informants observed by this

Committee in the definition of the remunerations:

a) Interests alignment between the Management and Supervisory Bodies and the Company – Performance

evaluation

In the decision of the remuneration of each member of the Board of Directors, shall be taken into account, for each single

member, the functions performed by individual members, the complexity of his duties, the responsibilities that are, in fact,

attributed to him, the time dedicated and the added value the result of his work brings to the Company.

In that extent, one cannot fail to differentiate the remuneration between the Executive Board members and the non-

Executive Board members, as well as the remuneration amongst each of the cited group.

There are also duties performed in other controlled companies which cannot be excluded from this consideration, as this

means, on one side, there is an increase in terms of responsibility and, on the other, in terms of the collective source of

income.

b) Interests alignment between the Management and Supervisory Bodies and the Company – Performance

evaluation

In order to grant an efficient alignment of interests of the Management and Supervisory Bodies with the ones of the

Company, this Committee shall not fail to pursue a policy that rewards the Board Directors by the performance of the

Company in a long term perspective and in the creation of value for the shareholder.

c) Economic position of the Company

This criterion has to be understood and interpreted carefully. The size of the Company and the inevitable complexity of

management associated to it is clearly one of the relevant aspects to determine the economic situation of the Company and

of remuneration, understood in its broader sense. To a higher level of complexity, corresponds a higher remuneration, but it

has to be adjusted accordingly to other criteria informants of the economic situation of the Company (of financial nature,

human resources nature, etc).

d) Market Criteria

The balance between supply and demand is unavoidable when setting any remuneration and the situation regarding members

of the Corporate Bodies is no exception. Only by taking into account market practices will allow the Company to maintain

professionals guided to perform at an adequate level of complexity and responsibility, It is important that the remuneration is

aligned with market practices and that it is stimulant, allowing it to become an instrument to help achieve a single and

collective high level of performance, thus ensuring not only the individual interest, but mostly the interests of the Company

and of the shareholders.

variable part may not exceed 5% (five per cent) of the annual net profit.

2nd Remuneration for non-Executive independent members of the Board of Directors, members of the Supervisory Board and

members of the Board of the General Meeting shall only consist of a fixed part.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2014 251

8th The process of attribution of variable remuneration to Executive members of the Board of Directors must follow the criteria

proposed by the Remunerations Committee, namely their hierarchal stand, evaluation of performance and real growth of the

Company, seeking to promote in those the convergence of the interests of the Management Body with the Company, with

emphasis on the long-term performance. Thus, will be considered decisive for the evaluation and measurement of the VR:

The contribution of the Executive Directors for the results obtained;

The profitability of business in the perspective of the shareholder;

The evolution of the stock quotes;

The degree of achievement of the projects integrated in and measured by the Balanced Scorecard of the Company.

the Committee, in search of the best practices of Corporate Governance regarding remuneration policies of the Corporate

Bodies, continues: (i) promoting a study and comparative analysis of remuneration policies and practices of other groups of

companies in the same sector with respect to the fixing of remuneration for future implementation and adoption in Martifer,

as well as (ii) studying the possibility of adoption of politics that, shown to be feasible and balanced to all actors, foresee the

possibility of the variable remuneration – when attributed - to be payable, in part or totally, only after clearance of the fiscal

accounts of all the mandate and, on the other hand, that allows a limitation to the variable remuneration in case the results

show a relevant deterioration of the company’s Performance in the last cleared fiscal year or when it is expected in the

designated year.

V – LIMITS

In case of verification of an permanent and not exceptional increase of the volume of activity associated with the exercise of the

functions by General Meeting and the Supervisory Board members, the maximum amount payable to the members of the

governing bodies, in particular the members of the General Meeting and the Supervisory Board may not exceed, respectively,

either individually or in aggregate, 25% of the average amount paid on the last 3 financial years, for the corresponding member of

the governing body.

VI – OTHER RESPONSIBILITIES

Regarding the process of hiring or appointing members to its governing bodies, the Company shall not enter into any contracts

or agreements with such members that allow the recognition or assignment of the right to receive payment of any damages or

compensation beyond the amounts legally payable, in the event of dismissal or termination of service.

It is our understanding that, in light of what is said in the above, these options should be maintained until the next General

Meeting.
