Consolidated Management Report to the Board of Directors

Dear Shareholders,

In compliance with the legal and statutory regulations, the Board of Directors presents the management report for 2016 fiscal year. As the environment where we operate is directly related to the positive evolution or downturn of the global economy, before presenting the entity’s financial information and its business centers we will do a slight approach to the most important national and international macroeconomic data.

1.

Macroeconomics framework

1.1

International macroeconomic framework

With regard to the international framework, the current outlook points to a gradual pick-up in activity and world trade. Despite this positive development in 2016, in the coming years world economic growth is expected to remain below the levels seen, on average, in the period prior to the financial crisis. In the fourth quarter of 2016, the world economy was more buoyant, boosted by advanced economies, accompanied by an improvement in industrial production in both Japan and the European Union. Among the advanced economies, the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the United States of America (USA) accelerated to 1.9% year on year (1.7% in the 3rd quarter), coupled with robust private consumption and recovery of private investment; while that of the United Kingdom remained at 2.2%. For emerging countries, China’s GDP slowed down to 6.7% (the lowest in the last 25 years) and both exports and imports of goods fell to -7.2% and 5.3%, respectively (-2.9% and -14.3% in 2015). In 2016, world trade in goods also accelerated as a result of more dynamic world exports, since world imports decelerated. The strengthening of trade was mainly observed in emerging and developing countries (especially in Asia).

Consolidated Annual Report 2016

In the fourth quarter of 2016, the economic sentiment indicator showed a significant recovery for both the European Union (EU) and the euro area (EA), as a result of improved confidence indicators. According to the European Commission’s (EC) preliminary estimate, the GDP of the European Union and the euro area increased to 1.9% and 1.8% year on year in real terms. The quantitative indicators for the euro area for the whole of 2016 indicate a strengthening of economic activity (industrial production, retail sales and exports of goods in nominal terms).

The EU labour market saw a gradual improvement throughout 2016, with a drop in the unemployment rate for both the EU and the EA, standing at 8.2% and 9.6%, respectively, in, December 2016 (9.0% and 10.5% in December 2015). In December 2016, the expectations of euro area entrepreneurs in relation to job creation worsened for the manufacturing, service and retail sectors, but improved for the construction industry. In the US, the unemployment rate dropped to 4.9% (5.3% in 2015), strengthening the trend of the gradual pick-up in employment observed in recent years. In December 2016, the annual rate of inflation of the euro area rose to 1.1%, mainly due to the recovery of energy prices and the acceleration of unprocessed food prices. However, for 2016 as a whole, the annual average inflation rate only increased to 0.2% (0.0% in 2015), reflecting a less marked fall in energy prices, to -5.0%, on average (-6.9% in 2015). The annual rate of inflation of advanced economies and China accelerated at the end of 2016, rising to 1.3% in the US (0.1% in 2015).

In average annual terms, the price of oil fell again in 2016 compared to the previous year, prolonging the trend observed since 2013. This downward trend is expected to be halted in 2017, with a projected average oil increase of approximately 15%. In the years ensuing, the growth rate should slow down. At the end of 2016, the spot price of Brent crude oil averaged USD 45/bbl (EUR 42/bbl). However, in the last months of the year, oil prices rose significantly to an average of USD 55/bbl (EUR 52/bbl) in December 2016, reflecting the agreement reached between member and nonmember countries of OPEC (in November 2016) to reduce production by 1.2 million barrels per day from January 2017. In the fourth quarter of 2016, the price of non-energy raw materials accelerated 9.8% year-on-year (1.3% in the third quarter), a trend that extended to all products, with emphasis on metals and industrial inputs. The reduction of the price of oil in an oil-importing economy, such as the Portuguese economy, has a positive impact on GDP growth by reducing production and transport costs and their transmission to consumer prices. The impact on consumer prices reflects both the direct effect of the reduction in the price of oil products and the indirect effect of reducing the cost of producing other goods. In addition, by reducing the price of oil the reduction of inflation has a positive effect on the real disposable income of households and, consequently, on private consumption.

Despite the direct effect of the oil price reduction described above, there are no negligible effects in this regard, in particular the effect of the fall in the price of this raw material in oil-exporting economies, by significantly reducing revenues associated with the exploitation of this raw material, as is the case of Angola. With oil production as the main source of export and tax revenues, Angola is suffering the impact of the steep decline in this raw material since mid2014. In this context, and due to the strong link between the Portuguese and Angolan market, the sharp contraction in external demand from Angola, which has had a significant impact on Portuguese exports, cannot go unnoticed.

In December 2016, the euro exchange rate depreciated significantly against the dollar, with the euro standing at USD 1,054 at the end of the year, corresponding to a depreciation of 3.2% in comparison to the end of 2015 (USD 1,089). Throughout 2016, the euro-dollar followed a markedly downward trend, in the context of diverging monetary policies between the two sides of the Atlantic.

The Council of the European Central Bank (ECB) maintained a set of unconventional monetary policy measures during 2016, with the rate of the main refinancing operations declining to 0,00%. In December 2016, short-term interest rates on the euro money market continued their downward trend, renewing historically low levels, to -0.26% on average for the year 2016. In the US, 3-month interest rates accentuated the upward movement since the beginning of the year, with a yearly average of 0.74%. Thus, at the end of December 2016, 3-, 6- and 12-month Euribor interest rates stood at 0.32%, -0.22% and -0.08%, respectively. In the US, short-term interest rates rose to close to 1.00% at the end of 2016. dst - sgps, s.a.

In December 2016, long-term interest rates rose for both the US and the euro area, albeit more sharply for the former. Investors also penalised some bond markets (Portugal and Italy), resulting in a spread versus Germany, partly due to the fragility of the banking sector of both countries. Concerns about the political situation in Europe led to the widening of intra-euro spreads, particularly in Portugal, Italy and Spain. At the end of 2016, international stock indices took a downturn. The drop in stock prices was influenced by the negative performance of the Chinese stock exchange, the significant decline in the price of oil and some instability in the financial sector.

Consolidated Annual Report 2016

Despite the emergence of new positive factors in 2016, namely low energy prices, the uncertainty associated with the global economic outlook remains high and the intensification of downside risks are related to geopolitical tensions, the reappearance of volatility in financial and foreign exchange markets in the context of diverging monetary policies among major economies and the incomplete implementation of structural reforms. Moreover, a prolonged period of very low inflation, or even deflation, will be equally detrimental both to the prospects of world growth, and in particular to European growth, and to the persistence of excessive public and private indebtedness. In this context, the uncertainty surrounding economic policy guidelines in the United States, as well as the development of the UK's relations with the European Union and a possible weaker recovery of emerging market economies generate risks of possibly less buoyant developments in economic activity and trade flows on a global level. In terms of financial markets, the possibility of renewed tensions cannot be excluded and there is some uncertainty about the configuration of the ECB’s non-conventional monetary policy. In addition, the vulnerable situation of the banking system or the fiscal position in some euro area countries may lead to an increase in sovereign debt interest rates. These factors could lead to an increase in the financing costs of the European economy, with an impact on private consumption and investment.

1.2

National macroeconomic framework

In 2016, the Portuguese economy maintained the path of moderate recovery that has characterised the past few years. This moderate growth translates into an average annual GDP growth rate of 1.2% in 2016, with GDP expected to accelerate to 1.4% in 2017 and stabilise its growth rate by 1.5% in the two years ensuing. In the coming years, GDP growth should be close to that projected by the ECB for the euro area, but it will not be able to reverse the negative spread accumulated between 2010 and 2013. This lack of real convergence vis-Ă -vis the euro area reflects the persistence of structural constraints to the growth of the Portuguese economy, with emphasis on the high levels of indebtedness of the public and private sectors, unfavourable demographic trends and the persistence of inefficiency in the labour and product markets, which require the continuation of the process of structural reforms. After a very dynamic growth of exports of goods and services in 2015 (6.1%), in 2016 the growth rate decelerated to 3.7%. This slowdown, which should not prevent a new gain in market shares, reflects both the deceleration of external demand and some temporary factors, such as the reduction in production in industrial units in the automotive and energy sectors. In addition, in 2016 exports continued to reflect unfavourable sales behaviour for some non-EU markets, most notably Angola. Current projections point to a dissipation of these factors in 2017 and an acceleration of external demand, contributing to the return of more dynamic growth of exports.

Consolidated Annual Report 2016

Portuguese economic recovery in 2016 thus continued to be sustained by the buoyancy of exports of goods and services, accompanied by a slightly higher growth in domestic demand and a positive evolution of Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF). The external environment of the Portuguese economy should remain favourable, albeit with a downward revision of global trade flows relative to previous periods. In addition, monetary and financial conditions should remain globally accommodative, and the Portuguese economy should maintain the financing capacity vis-Ă -vis the exterior. In turn, the price of energy and non-energy raw materials should reverse the downward trend of recent years. In this globally favourable environment, exports of goods and services should be more dynamic than external demand and will continue to be the component of global demand with the greatest contribution to the growth of activity. The greater buoyancy of the Portuguese economy in the coming years will also be sustained by an acceleration of the GFCF, based on a recovery of business investment. In sectoral terms, at the end of 2016, there was a lower rate of change in the Gross Value Added (GVA) of the main activity sectors compared to 2015, especially in construction and industry. Activity in the services sector, which accounts for 74% of GVA, after a slight deceleration in 2016, should show a moderate acceleration profile in 2017. This sector will continue to benefit from the momentum of exports, in particular tourism, but also of services associated with the export of goods, in line with a greater allocation of productive resources to the sectors most exposed to international competition.

Against a background of rising real disposable income, declining unemployment, and with consumer confidence remaining at particularly high levels, in the last quarter of 2016 private consumption was more dynamic and higher than GDP growth in the third quarter. The acceleration of this aggregate in year-on-year terms will have essentially reflected the acceleration of the consumption of non-durable goods. On the other hand, there was a slowdown in the consumption of durable goods for the second consecutive quarter, explained by the deceleration in the purchase of passenger cars.

On the other hand, the GFCF once again recorded a year-on-year decrease in the last quarter of 2016, down -1.7% compared to a growth of 4.6% in 2015. The evolution of the GFCF throughout the year reflected the decline of the construction component, in line with the evolution of cement sales, conditioned by the sharp drop in public investment. Public investment dropped sharply in 2016, but this component is particularly uncertain given the late entry into force of the budget for this year and taking into account the expenditure profile associated with investment projects co-financed by Community funds. Inflation, as measured by the Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP), is expected to increase to 0.8% in 2016, compared to 0.5% in 2015. Compared with projections for the euro area, inflation is expected to remain 0.6 pp above the euro area average in 2016. The price increase in 2016 reflects a slight acceleration in service prices and a lower drop in the prices of energy and non-energy industrial goods. The upward trend in inflation is driven by an increase in internal and external inflationary pressures, motivated by the context of growth of the national and global economy, by the positive impact of the monetary policy measures adopted by the ECB, as well as by the incorporation of the technical hypotheses of price increases of raw materials in euro. In addition, there was an improvement in consumer quality indicators. On the other hand, the qualitative indicators of business opinion showed a mixed evolution, with domestic demand for consumer goods improving while the volume of retail sales deteriorated. With regard to the conditions on the labour market, there is also evidence of a favourable trend in employment. Employment growth will occur in the private sector, as public employment is expected to remain relatively stable. These developments in employment, along with the hypothesis of stabilisation of the active population, imply maintaining a downward trend in the unemployment rate, 11.0% at the end of 2016, versus 12.4% in 2015. However, the growth in activity has translated into rather sluggish labour productivity in the recent recovery period. After a slight drop in 2016, annual labour productivity growth is projected to be around 0.5% in the coming years. Despite the moderate recovery of the Portuguese economy since 2013, several structural constraints to economic growth persist, including the high level of indebtedness of the various sectors of the economy – households, nonfinancial corporations and the public sector – unfavourable demographic trends, a high level of long-term unemployment and a pace of recovery of investment short of that observed in previous recoveries. In this context, it is important to continue to deepen the process of structural reforms by increasing incentives for innovation, factor mobility and investment in physical and human capital, thereby creating conditions for a sustained increase in productivity and growth potential of the economy . In addition, in a context of relatively high levels of uncertainty, maintaining a predictable institutional and fiscal framework will contribute to preserving investor confidence and ensuring a favourable investment climate. Finally, pursuing an additional fiscal consolidation effort is crucial if the downward trend of the level of public indebtedness is to be sustained and to remain robust to adverse shocks.

1.2.1

The construction sector

In a moderate economic recovery, the performance of the construction sector is once again negative. In fact, investment in construction and GVA recorded significant decreases throughout 2016, with a 3.1% fall in the sector’s GVA and a 3.6% drop in GFCF in construction, contrasting with the positive GDP growth of 1.1% in the same period. With the confirmation of this new fall in production in 2016, this will be the 9th consecutive year in which the construction sector did not grow at all. It is estimated that the volume of production in 2016 is less than 45% of production in 2001, when construction peaked. Even so, not all indicators behaved negatively in 2016 when compared to the previous year. With regard to employment, the number of construction workers grew 3.7% year on year, representing an increase of 10 thousand workers on average throughout 2016. On the other hand, the data on transactions involving dwellings confirm the strong momentum that has been characterising the real-estate market, where the number of sales of housing units grew 20% year on year. Estimates point to a total of more than 128 thousand dwellings sold during 2016. Production indicators were very positive, with a 36% increase in the number of new licensed dwellings, +29% in the value of public works promoted and +19% in public works contracts. These increases anticipate a pick-up in the sector in the short term. In turn, the amount of new loans granted for the acquisition of housing amounted to EUR 3.2 billion, a growth of 54% in comparison to the same period of 2015. There were also positive developments in the licensing of new non-residential buildings, with a licensed area of more than 1.6 million m2 during the first eight months of 2016, which translates into a year-on-year increase of 27.5%. The public works market began to show signs of recovery in the last months of 2016, reversing the downward trend witnessed over a long period. The amount of public works contracts put out to tender amounted to EUR 1,756 million, 42% higher than in 2015. This is the best record since 2011 in terms of promotion of public works. In turn, the total volume of contracts awarded and reported in the public works observatory, resulting from public tenders, stood at EUR 718 million in 2016. Despite a 14% growth over the previous year, hiring remains at historically low levels. Contracts entered into as a result of direct awards amounted to EUR 544 million in 2016, 20% higher than in 2015. On the whole, contracts concluded and reported in 2016, which include public tenders, direct awards and other modalities, such as competitions limited by prior qualification, amounted to EUR 1,355 million, 12% more than in 2015. These are the first signs of a potential recovery of the construction activity that the 2017 State budget should help to consolidate due to its direct effects on employment and economic growth. dst - sgps, s.a.

Consumption of cement in the national territory followed the downward trend in the sector, with a negative change of 4.4% in 2016, conditioned by the sharp drop in public investment in the construction sector. In the State budget for 2017, growth in public investment is once again not foreseen. In a crisis context, this variable is crucial to boost private investment and construction and to kick start the Portuguese economy.

The economic situation in Angola remains unfavourable for the construction sector. Insufficient demand, lack of materials and difficulties in obtaining bank loans were the main constraints. Likewise, the deterioration of sales perspectives, excessive bureaucracy and state regulations have conditioned the activity of Portuguese companies in Angola. The drop in crude oil prices in the period under review has reduced Angolan tax revenues from oil exports, leading the Government to cut public spending, including contracts to the State, thus affecting Portuguese companies oriented towards the Angolan market. Furthermore, construction companies continue to experience delays in payments, a recurrent situation in Angola. The conversion of kwanzas revenues to dollars and their expatriation to Portugal will be a growing problem due to the lack of foreign exchange in the market. Consequently, the Angolan crisis will have a negative impact on the margin of Portuguese companies, as Angola continues to be the largest market for Portuguese construction companies.

The renewable energy sector

The Climate Conference which took place in 2015 and culminated in the so-called Paris Agreement, valid as from 2020, implies the commitment of all stakeholders in the fight against climate change. The long-term objective of this agreement is to keep global warming below 2°C, as this is the point from which the scientific community believes that the planet will be irreversibly subject to potentially catastrophic effects of climate change In this context, it was also defined that the financing of the measures that need to be taken by developing countries to achieve this objective will be financed by developed countries, in an amount of EUR 100 billion per year. It will be up to each country to voluntarily define its targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions in order to mitigate the effects of climate change. It became clear that the decarbonisation of the economy is a one-way street, which confirms the commitment made by the group dst some time ago to the Economy of the Environment and, specifically, to the Renewable Energy sector. Agendas such as electric mobility, smart cities and energy storage will be new business opportunities for which the group will be on the lookout, in the sense of continuing to be a benchmark company in the sector. Besides, intent on reducing external energy dependence, increasing energy efficiency and reducing CO 2 emissions, the Government has defined strategic guidelines for the energy sector, approving the National Energy Strategy (ENE 2020), which estimates that by 2020 the external energy dependency will be reduced by 74%. By 2020, renewable energy will therefore have a key role to play, with an installed capacity of 8,500 MW in wind energy, 8,600 MW in hydropower and 1,500 MW in solar energy. In this sense, the renewable energy sector is becoming increasingly important in Portugal. At the end of 2016, total renewable installed capacity reached 13,324 MW, with an annual production based on renewable sources of 32,965 GWh. In 2016, 61.1% of the electricity produced in Portugal was therefore generated by renewable sources, compared to 49.2% in 2015. Worthy of note is the fact that between 7 and 11 May 2016, in a continuous period of 107 hours, electricity consumption in Portugal was fully guaranteed by renewable energy sources. This fact, reported in the media in several countries, was elected by the British newspaper The Guardian as one of the greatest moments of science in 2016. In this context, the Sustainability and Efficiency in the Use of Resources 2014-2020 Operational Program will be a structuring instrument in the development of the activity in the field of energy production based on renewable sources. The main objective is to achieve a path of sustainable growth, supported by a more competitive development model to dst - sgps, s.a.

mitigate the consumption of natural and energy resources while generating new opportunities for employment and economic development. The fundamental transition to a low carbon economy will have to be supported by the development of energy efficiency and the production of electricity based on renewable sources, topics that are supported by the Operational Program mentioned above. Wind energy In Portugal, the northern and central regions are the ones with the greatest national concentration of wind farms, due to the greater availability of resources. At the end of 2016, wind power installed in Portugal stood at 5,266 MW, with a production of 12,238 GWh. Most of the wind turbines currently in operation were installed in the period between 2005 and 2012. Since 2013, this technology has been responsible for the production of more than 12 TWh. The evolution of this sector will involve the over-equipping of existing parks or the installation of offshore wind farms. Solar energy The publication of Decree-Law No. 153/2014 of 20 October brought about a number of changes to the photovoltaic solar sector through the liberalisation of the market, allowing consumers to produce their own energy. Given the legal framework in force and the advantages associated with the installation of photovoltaic solar power plants, such as production at the place of consumption using a traditionally unused area (roofing), the modularity of the installations and the growing competitiveness of this sector In comparison with the conventional market, namely during the day (corresponding to the peak and flood periods), the photovoltaic solar plant is expected to grow exponentially in terms of installed power. In fact, the current installed capacity (about 463 MW) corresponds to just over 3% of the renewable power installed in Portugal. In this context, the market is expected to grow significantly, as is the associated turnover.

Hydropower Hydropower is the main source of renewable energy worldwide. It is one of the most attractive renewable energy sources due to its maturity and predictability, as well as its ability to compete economically with other non-renewable energy sources. China is notoriously the largest producer of hydropower in the world, followed by Canada, the United States, Brazil and Russia. In Portugal, the installed capacity is stabilised with a value of approximately 6,835 MW, which corresponds, in an average year, to just over 17% of the electricity consumed in Portugal. In 2007, the hydroelectric sector in Portugal was marked by the launch of the National Program of Dams with High Hydroelectric Potential, currently in execution. This program foresees the execution of the hydroelectric power plants of Padroselos, Daivões, Gouvães, Foz Tua, Pinhosão, Fridão, Girabolhos, Alvito, Almourol and Alto Tâmega. Completion of these projects will result in an increased installed capacity of 1,054 MW. The intention is to reach 7,000 MW of installed capacity by 2020, in accordance with the targets set.

1.2.3

The telecommunications sector

As of the year 2015, the year 2016 marks an important restructuring in the telecommunications sector, both nationally and internationally. In this way, we highlight the following facts and figures that help to characterise the momentum of the sector in the global context:  Although 2016 was not as active as the previous year in the number of mergers and acquisitions, in October the purchase of Time Warner by AT&T was announced, one of the biggest operations in the world in recent years that is estimated to be completed in 2017;  The telecommunications industry continued to grow strongly worldwide in 2016, with a growth of close to 1.5% over the EUR 1.112 billion with which it ended the year 2015. The industry is expected to continue to evolve, revealing an increasing CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of 2%, reaching EUR 1.195 billion in 2019. This continued growth in the value of the global telecommunications market is directly related to changes in consumption habits in telecommunications and to the increasing use of communication devices;  The number of Internet users in 1995 was 35 million worldwide. Today it is close to 3 billion, which corresponds roughly to 40% of the global population. Another example of the transformation of the sector is the use of mobile services, with more than 7.6 billion connections (belonging to 4.7 billion users). More than 1 billion already have 4G broadband access (technology available in 151 countries worldwide).

With regard to the European context, the following events are highlighted: 

In January 2016, the European Parliament underlined the importance of private investment in Internet connectivity networks for digital progress as well as a stable and investment-friendly regulatory framework for all stakeholders in all areas, including rural and peripheral regions. Likewise, in June 2016 the European Council called for the guarantee of a very high capacity fixed and wireless broadband connectivity throughout Europe as a prerequisite for future competitiveness and for the reform of the telecommunications regulatory framework with the aim of encouraging substantial investment in networks while promoting effective competition and consumer rights.

During the year 2016, the European Commission was very active in proposing measures to speed up the development of information and communication technologies in the European context. It proposed the creation of a ‘gigabit society’ by 2025, where all European citizens would have access to ultra-broadband services that take advantage of the capabilities of new applications that leverage the digital transformation of society. To this end, it intends to encourage investment in high capacity networks with a new regulatory framework, the European Code of Electronic Communications and a 5G Action Plan;

The acceleration of the decrease in roaming charges was also an important milestone for last year. Vodafone eliminated roaming charges in the European market, anticipating the end of this type of telecommunications tariff scheduled for June 2017, determined by the European Commission.

In the national context, the telecommunications sector was marked by the following events: 

The completion of the acquisition of PT by Altice for a total value of EUR 5,789 billion, of which EUR 4,920 billion was received directly by Oi and the remaining amount (EUR 869 billion) was used to settle PT’s debt. As a result of this transaction, Altice was forced to sell ONI and Cabovisão, which were acquired by the Apax Partners fund;

The launch of new initiatives to increase the country’s fibre optic coverage (PT and Vodafone advertisements);

Heavy investments by operators in the purchase of rights in football. NOS and PT Portugal signed contracts with three of the largest national football clubs. Investment in the television rights of these clubs amounts to around EUR 1.3 billion;

The growing interest of telecommunications operators to acquire media companies. In this sense, Altice’s interest in buying the Media Capital group was widely reported.

With regard to the most relevant operational data, the development of FTTH – Fiber To The Home stands out favourably. The table below shows the number of residential customers in Portugal with high speed networks and services at a fixed location, as well as the number of subscribers in September 2016. dst - sgps, s.a.

As can be seen from the table below, this ratio has grown considerably. Between the second quarter of 2016 and the third quarter of the same year there was a growth of around 4.2%. This positive variation is even more pronounced when comparing the third quarter of 2016 (3Q16) with the same period in 2015 (increase of 16.1%).

Given the focus of the dst group’s telecommunications companies on the wholesale market, it is important to analyse the evolution of the demand for affordable retail services in their network. According to the indicators published quarterly by the sector regulator (ICP – Anacom), the number of television subscribers (considering not only wireline but also satellite solutions – DTH – Direct to Home) was about 3.6 million at the end of the third quarter of 2016, 44 thousand subscribers more than in the previous quarter. When compared to the same period of the previous year, there was a positive variation of 4.6%, i.e., a further 159 thousand subscribers. The increase in the number of subscribers per technology of the subscription television service in 3Q16 was due to the growth of fiber-supported offers (FTTH/B), which recorded a further 63 thousand subscribers at the end of the quarter. In this period and in the opposite direction, the number of cable TV service subscribers decreased slightly.

Trend in the total number of television services subscribers by technology

Looking at the distribution of subscribers by type of television service, at the end of 3Q16 the cable TV distribution service accounted for 37% of total subscribers, DTH 17%, xDSL 20% and optical fibre (FTTH/B) 27%. In the financial year under analysis and based on 3Q16, the NOS Group had the highest share of pay-TV subscribers with 43.5%, followed by MEO with 39.4% and Vodafone and Cabovisão with 12.2% and 4.7%, respectively. It should be noted that Vodafone was the entity that received the most subscribers in 3Q16. At the end of 3Q16, according to information provided by the Telecommunications Barometer of Marktest-Rede Fixa, about 78.7% of households with pay-TV had more than 80 channels, representing an increase of 6.7 percentage points year on year. On the other hand, access to premium channels decreased in comparison to the previous year, by 1.9 percentage points in relation to the previous quarter (Source: IPC – ANACOM). There was also an increase in the number of Internet access customers at a fixed location. According to data published by ANACOM, there were around 3.32 million physical accesses to the Internet at a fixed location in Portugal in 3Q16. It should also be noted that 6.14 million users used the Internet in mobile broadband.

For the 2017-2018 three-year period, IPC–ANACOM provides a set of strategic priorities that focus on the following points:  Guarantee and protection of citizens’ rights;  Promotion of competition among markets;  Ensuring the efficient management of public resources;  Promotion of institutional and technical cooperation; and  Promotion of internal efficiency and effectiveness.

1.2.4

The real-estate sector

In the year 2016, the activity of the Portuguese real-estate sector continued to improve an important set of indicators that measure developments in demand, production and employment generated. Investment in the promotion of real-estate and data on the sale of real-estate continued to show positive year-on-year changes compared to 2015. In line with economic developments, the housing market remained more dynamic than in the previous two years, when investment incentives and the resumption of housing credit began to have an effect on international and domestic demand. Both markets were active, albeit revealing different behaviours, diversifying the type of product sought and benefiting the central areas of the big cities (Lisbon and Oporto, primarily). According to information provided by APEMIP, the growth of all real-estate transactions in the country was between 20 and 25% in 2016.

dst - sgps, s.a.

Page 21 of 111


Consolidated Annual Report 2016

In the period from January to September 2016, and in year-on-year terms, the credit granted to individuals for the acquisition of housing saw an increase of around 51%. (Source: Banco de Portugal). Following the growth in transactions and housing loans, in December the average bank valuation of the total country stood at EUR 1,100/m2, a year-on-year increase of 4.8% (Source: INE). Particularly noteworthy in this residential sector were the dynamics in Lisbon and Porto, motivated by the non-habitual resident, Golden Visa and Tourism schemes. In these locations, average demanded values were significantly higher than in the rest of the country, with a 9% growth in Lisbon of around EUR 2,272/m2 (Source: CI SIR data). In residential real-estate, 2016 was another year of excellence for real-estate, with an estimated transaction volume of 1.3 billion. It should be noted that in 2015, the record number of nearly 2 billion was reached. In general the major trends observed in 2015 remained, i.e. a large part of the capital is of foreign origin (USA, France, UK). More than half comes from investment funds and the retail (trade) and office sectors continue to account for much of the traded volume. Still in this segment, yields remained stable throughout the year, standing at 5.25% for offices, 5.25%/5.50% for offices and shopping centres, 6.75% for industrial and 7% for retail parks. Overall, forecasts for 2017 point to continuing high investment volumes above EUR 1 billion.

1.2.5

The ventures sector

The venture capital industry in Portugal is currently in a growth phase. Lack of market liquidity has led to a greater demand for venture capital to boost equity. Furthermore, in 2016 financial instruments were launched under the ‘Portugal 2020’ program, co-financed by the European Structural and Investment Funds (FEEI), to support the financing needs of small and medium-sized enterprises, through the opening of lines to finance venture capital funds. As a result, in 2016 new venture capital companies (SCR) were set up and new venture capital funds (FCR) were created, as well as new management companies. According to Market Security Exchange Commission (Comissão do Mercado de Valores Mobiliários - CMVM), there are currently 87 FCRs and 44 SCRs. Venture capital investments in Portugal have revealed atypical behaviour given the nature of the sector. Instead of taking shareholder risks, operators have opted to make capital inflows through paid supplies, which very much resembles a bank loan. The overall risk of operations is thus substantially reduced, since the return on capital ceases to depend solely on profits from the activity or from the sale of holdings.

dst - sgps, s.a.

Page 22 of 111


Consolidated Annual Report 2016

In order to step up the sector, the COMPETE operational program, under the Innovation Risk Sharing and Financing Support System (SAFPRI) was of significant importance. In 2016, it continued to support 22 FCRs, which are focused on investing in SMEs in the seed and early stages, as well as in phases of expansion of their activity. In the European scenario, as in Portugal, the funds raised by venture capital have been directed mainly at FCR, with private equity characteristics, specialised in buyout operations, which consist of acquiring a majority stake in the share capital of a company with possible recourse to substantial amounts of debt. Following the transposition of Directive 2011/61/EU and Directive 2013/14/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2011 and 21 May 2013, respectively, through Law No.18/2015 of 4 March, it is important to highlight the main changes to the regulatory framework for investment in venture capital in Portugal: (i) introduction of regulation on investment in social entrepreneurship and specialised alternative investment; (Ii) possibility for fund management regulation to provide for the division of the fund into several autonomous compartments, represented by one or more categories of investment units, each of which has asset autonomy rules; and (iii) a new and more demanding regime to which large management entities are subject. The outlook for 2017 includes the opening of new venture capital financing lines under the European Horizon 2020 Community program, which provides for EUR 2 billion to be made available for seed or early stage projects, in addition to the Financing Line for Venture Capital Funds opened in 2016 through the tender with reference number IFD-FC&QCFCR-01/16. The FC&QC (Equity Fund) is dedicated to the creation or reinforcement of corporate capitalisation financial instruments, in particular in the start-up, seed and early stages, as well as companies with growth projects, organic or through acquisition, and/or reinforcement of business training for internationalisation and for the development of new products and services or with innovations in processes, products, organisation or marketing, among others. The opening of these lines of financing is expected to increase the sector’s activity in 2017, with the emergence of new venture capital funds and consequent increase in investment operations, thus maintaining the trend observed in 2016.

1.2.6

The environment sector

In Portugal there are 385 management companies, of which 269 operate in the public water supply (excluding around 43 micro entities formed by parish councils or users associations), 266 urban waste water sanitation and 280 entities within municipal waste management activities. Within the sector there is a great variety of realities that can be observed by the different business models adopted and the different scale of financial, economic and technical resources in the management entities.

Comparing to 2015, there are fewer entities due to the restructure process within the sector which culminated in the merge of inter-municipal concessions. The inter-municipal concessions is the most used model, as far as sanitation in “high” is concerned covering 202 municipalities and 7 million inhabitants covering 74% of the country’s area.

Indeed, the period of 2016 reflects the progressive and successful consolidation that dst group has been recording in the last years and in the several business areas that has a presence, in particular by maintaining a proportional turnover close to € 270M and an operating profitability, measured by EBITDA, € 37.5M. Debt levels remain below € 100M (-2.3% compared to 2015), evidencing a rigorous and sustainable policy of financial management. At this level, the group’s international operations growth and its investment strengthening in human capital had particular relevance, which are two vectors of action involving an immediate and significant investment, but simultaneously prepare the group for the growing challenges of responsiveness and innovation that today’s world demands from the big economic groups. In the period under review, dst group’s consolidated turnover amounted to € 198.2M. The slight decrease in the group’s turnover (-3.9%) was accompanied by a proportional reduction of its operational profitability (-5.5%). However, the group's profitability levels remained very robust values, with consolidated EBITDA to exceed € 37.5M at the end of the 2016 period, equivalent to an EBITDA margin of 18.9%. Evidencing the group’s prudent policy regarding markets and related investments approach associated to the ongoing internationalization process. However, although the group’s EBITDA remained fairly positive, the impact of goodwill depreciation expenses (€ 8.1M) contributed to the net profit for the period, after non-controlling interests, of € 7.8M (€ -7.4M vs. 2015). On the one hand, it is important to highlight the positive effect that the dst group’s diversification entails in terms of maintaining positive levels of operating profitability: the Renewable Energy Business and Environment areas represent 42.5% of the group’s consolidated EBITDA in 2016 and totalize a net income positive for the period of approximately € dst - sgps, s.a.

Engineering & Construction was at the origin of dst group and, despite the successful and progressive diversification process, this business area still maintains its vital relevance in the group sphere, having recorded in the period under review a proportional turnover of € 180.8M. Although in 2016 its turnover has registered a decrease of € 17.9M, the performance of this business area continued to reflect the strength of the group's position in the market for engineering and construction and highlights the extraordinary responsiveness of dst group to the adverse macroeconomic environment, particularly which the industry and its key players are living. For this record achieved in 2016 is worth considering the positive impact of the ongoing internationalization process, whose international operations within this business area exceeded € 44.7M (+11.18% YoY), and the group has consolidated the geographical areas in which it is presence, by focusing investment in commercial relationships and partnership in other jurisdictions with favorable business potential. In order to enable its profitability levels and quality safeguarding of the Engineering & Construction provided services, dst group undertook an optimization exercise of its operational activity in this sector. Thus, the year 2016 was marked by the increase of operating profitability levels, with an EBITDA margin of 11.3% (€ 17.7M) reflecting, among other things, the group's concern on maximizing its operations efficiency. Despite the increase in debt levels in this business area, it should be noted that, in the period under review, net financing expenses were reduced by € 2.3M €, to the total of € 0.7M € registered in 2016 (compared to € 2.6M in 2015), mainly explained by the strong contraction in interest and similar income earned. dst - sgps, s.a.

It is remarkable that the year 2016 was characterized by the contribution that this sector has to dst group’s consolidated net income, whose positive amount of € 5.3M recorded in this business area account for 67.3% of total earnings, even though it contracted € 9M compared to 2015. dst group has a wide scope of strong technical skills that allow it to be perceived by the market as a landmark of rigour and service quality in Engineering & Construction field. Not only this is taken for granted already for many years at the national market level as, increasingly, it is perceived by key international players with which the group works in its international operations. As such, in 2016, dst group made several works of recognised impact and technical complexity, as is the case, among others, the following contracts: Hotel EXE Cascais 4*

Graciosa Energy System

IKEA Allotment

Moreover, dst group incorporates in its operations the entire value chain of the business sector, particularly in the award of electrical installations, heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), hydraulic works and telecommunications through dte – instalações especiais, s.a. (“dte”) - and the construction and assembly of steel structures and roofs and facades coating, such as industrial and commercial buildings, rehabilitation of buildings, art works, housing and offices, through bysteel, s.a. (“bysteel”). During the year 2016, two new companies were set up within the dst group and included in this business area, namely dstrainrail, s.a., which is dedicated to the preparation of studies and projects, execution of public and private rail works and other transport routes, as well as their maintenance; and bysteel fs, s.a., whose corporate purpose is the design, engineering, development, transformation and assembly of façade systems, assembling of coverings and facades, civil construction and public works. Therefore, dst group has significant competitive advantages in relation to its main competitors in the Engineering & Construction area. bysteel is focused on strengthening its position in foreign markets and on the internationalization of its activity by diversifying the geographical areas where it is present (eg in Angola, France and the United Kingdom), consolidating and expanding relations with international reference clients as a result of its rigor, service quality and responsiveness to customer needs.

Industrial production unit turned 6,079 tons of steel in 2016, which shows a decrease of 10.34% year on year, influencing almost at the same proportion the total turnover in the period under review. This reduction is due in large part to the dst - sgps, s.a.

change in the works typology in which bysteel is involved, where the greatest imposition is undoubtedly the technical capacity and know-how necessary to respond to the exigency and complexity of international projects. Diversification of the customer portfolio continued to be one of the purposes of bysteel in 2016, which resulted in the strengthening of its position in the French market, reaching 71.5% of the total turnover and a consequent decrease in the presence in Angola, which represented, in 2016, only 1.5% of total turnover. Trust is one of bysteel’s brand images and remains a priority, that has been reflected in new partnerships with worldwide reference customers through the celebration of several new contracts for the design, manufacture and implementation of metallic structures and facade cladding with Bouygues and Vinci groups, Graham Construction, Griner and Geocimenta, among other customers, such as the projects of the new “Hippodrome Longchamp” an the “Stade Roland Garros”, the “Trinity Là Défense” Tower or the building “17 Amesterdam” in Paris, the “Vitória” Tower and the “UCAN” – Rector’s Office at the Catholic University in Angola and the Kings Kross Quarter and Addlestone Town Center in United Kingdom.

In addition to the strong focus on the international market and the share of international operations represented 80.3% of its turnover in 2016, the domestic market maintains its strategic importance for bysteel and is marked by the execution of important projects, examples of which are the works of the “Museu de Arte, Arquitetura e Tecnologia“ (Art, Architecture and Technology Museum) in Belém historic, in Lisbon and the new factory pavilion for Auto Europa in Palmela.

In turn, in 2016, dte activity recorded an overall decrease 7.2% compared to 2015, reaching a turnover of € 25.2M. dte activity reflected not only the performance of its core business areas but also two new ones that were created in the course of 2016 - catenary and industrial cold, the latter having started its activity only at the year’s end. In individual terms, the electricity area contributed accounted for 55% of the total turnover, the HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) business represented 32% (+ 20% YoY), the hydromechanical business represented 9%, the catenary represented 3 %, And telecommunications 1%. During this period, dte participated in major projects in the specialties in which it operates, examples of which are the IKEA’s shops in Braga and in Loulé, the Irrigation Infrastructure – Block of Pias, the Hydraulic Circuit Caliços Machado, the renovation of the Northern Line railroad between Alfarelos and Pampilhosa, Roxo-Sado Block and Graciólica in Azores, among others. Indeed, at the level of this dst group society, it should be noted the growth of its operations in Angola, under which also already present in several projects, mainly through the implementation of electricity works and HVAC.

The dst group’s wind portfolio is displayed as shown below:

dst group also intends to extend its investments and to strengthen its position in the wind energy sector, both nationally and internationally, and it currently has ongoing wind projects evaluation processes. Regarding to photovoltaics, the year 2014 was marked by the completion of a photovoltaic module new model certification, which has enhanced the competitiveness of global sun, s.a., which resulted in a significant increase in its orders and turnover. Therefore, the year 2016 was characterized by the commercial activity strengthening of global sun, s.a., focusing the stock sale of photovoltaic modules. The year 2015 was marked by the entry into force of Law- Decree No. 153/2014 of 20 October, that establishes the legal framework for self-consumption, which liberalized the sector giving each consumer the opportunity to produce its own energy, and its consolidation occurred during the year 2016. Thus, dst solar, s.a. diversified its activity, directing it to other areas, namely energy efficiency projects implementation, both in the private sector and the public sector, notably through the implementation of energy efficiency measures in pools, pavilions and other social facilities. Thereby, in the photovoltaic sector in Portugal, the installed and certified power in 2016 corresponded to a total of 12 MW, as the published statistics by the General Directorate of Geology and Energy, .and over the same period, approximately 45 MW of power were registered. dst solar installed several photovoltaic power plants, totaling approximately 4 MW of installed power capacity, mainly self-consumption projects in industrial units. In 2016, dst solar main customers were Woodone (Paços de Ferreira), Carvitin (Braga), Aviário do Resouro (Ourém), O Feliz Painel (Braga), Intermolde (Marinha Grande) and Polopiqué (Vizela), that stands out among other companies that invested in photovoltaic plats for self-consumption.

During the year 2016, Environment activities remained stable and, as such, it kept the unavoidable relevance it gathered in dst group since the acquisition by the company Criar Vantagens, Lda. – dst group’s associated company – of the entire share capital of Aquapor – Serviços, S.A. (“Aquapor”) in late 2008. The proportional turnover of this business area amounted to € 38M in 2016 (+3.9% over the same period), and its contribution to dst group’s consolidated net income reached € 3.6M, corresponding to 46.3% of its total and representing a decrease of € 515k (- 17.44%) compared to 2015. The main dst group’s objectives of the Environment business area undergo the strengthening of its presence in the sector, either by organic or via acquisition and for the moment there is an ongoing process leading to an increase of its capital share in Aquapor. Regarding this associated company, several challenges have been posed during 2016. Therefore, due to its relevance to this business sector evolution, it shall be pointed out the restructuring reversal in the water sector, through the merger of the multi-municipal water and sanitation systems, undergone during the previous legislature. There is also a trend towards the horizontalisation of water supply and wastewater services, seeking, in a joint management frame, economies of scale and the systems’ sustainability.

The telecommunications sector, one of the largest global industries, and the main engine of the information society has significantly evolved in recent years, in Portugal, despite all the setbacks that the global economic crisis caused in Portugal in various areas. Next Generation Networks (NGN) optical fiber was considered as a strategic priority in the electronic communications sector, in which dstelecom focused its investment. The targets set in the Digital Agenda 2015 included the national coverage of fixed NGNs, particularly in rural areas by the end of 2012, and mobile by the end of 2015, placing Portugal at the forefront of development of this sector and ensuring thus a positive cross-impact on the economy, for which the dstelecom Norte and dstelecom Alentejo and Algarve contributed with a significant impact to the coverage of rural areas. Despite the sector's uncertainty from the date of its constitution, in 2008 and the following years, dstelecom, s.a. (dstelecom) has to must assume a position in the domestic high-value market. The goal is to foster the development of the Digital Society and allow access to technologically innovative products and services for all consumers, with significant impacts on the functioning of businesses and in citizens’ lives.

The year 2016 represents the expression of the group’s strategic focus success, in so far as this business area recorded a very sharp global growth of its operating activities, reaching a turnover proportional of € 18.9M, reflecting an increase of € 7.2M or 60.93% over the same period. It should be noted that this business area had a positive EBITDA that amounted to € 6.8M in 2016, (i.e., 16.5% of the year consolidated net profit), and which evidences an increase that exceeded 3.2M € over the homologous period. To this evolution has contributed a more aggressive commercial strategy and a broader portfolio of services offered to customers and potential customers, which was consolidated in the exponential growth levels registered by dstelecom, derivadas e segmentos, s.a., blu, s.a. and v partner, s.a. companies. As in 2015, in 2016, dstelecom's activity continued to be focused on the operational exploration and network maintenance associated with the "Installation, Management, Operation and Maintenance of a High Speed Electronic Communication Network ("Network") of the Northern Zone and the Alentejo and Algarve Zones” project, developed in previous years by dstelecom subsidiaries, dstelecom Norte, s.a. (“dstelecom norte”) and dstelecom Alentejo and Algarve, s.a. (“dstelecom alentejo and algarve"). This was an investment that amounted to about € 80M, which started in 2011 and by the end of 2013 was completed. This was an extremely important period for both dstelecom and the domestic market, and regarding the former it was marked by the trade negotiations consolidation with the main national operators. During this period, one of the three largest national communications operators started its services, using the Next Generation Networks provided by dstelecom. Additionally, negotiations were concluded with another national operator, and a commercial agreement was reached by the end of the second half of 2016. Therefore, it is expected that in 2017 dstelecom will provide services to all major national communications operators. Thus, dstelecom strengthened the provision of services to external customers, especially, the rental Fiber Dark Optics (FSO), DROP, Bitstream Access and rental of infrastructure to telecommunications operators such as Vodafone, ONI, NOS and MEO, among others, which had an exponential growth over the year. Indeed, dstelecom has been investing in expanding its skills within the installation, implementation, management and operating of the Next Generation Networks, currently having as a differentiating factor a strong know-how and expertise in this niche of the telecommunications sector. During the year 2016, because of the fund raising already begun in previous years, it solidified its skills by maintaining its staff, training and experience.

Consolidated Annual Report 2016

Considering the Northern and Alentejo and Algarve areas, the coverage of the fiber optic network managed by dstelecom and its subsidiaries, assumes the configuration shown in the figure on the right side. dstelecom skills combined with the fact that presents itself to the market with a truly differentiating product of the currently existing in the Portuguese market, i.e. a model of "operator of operators" which is based on the concept of networks open to all operators “equal access network”, increases exponentially its potential for market success and in foreign markets by exporting the model developed in Portugal. In the year under review there was an overall increase in the activity

subsidiaries, due to more aggressive commercial strategy and extending the portfolio of services, with constant growth in terms of attracting new customers, and most notably that for the second consecutive year these companies had positive results. As a final note, it should be pinpointed that optical fiber became the second main form of access to fixed broadband, after the cable network, having outpaced ADSL.

REAL ESTATE In 2015 dst group has carried out a corporate reorganization, aiming to formalize the different business areas in which it operates, with the last and main purpose of the preparation - or rather, the anticipation - the future. Thereby, the dst group different business areas were formalizes, namely Real Estate, whose activity was already in development, although scattered by the remaining five business areas previously existing (especially in the field of Engineering & Construction).

dst group decided at the start of 2015 to formalize this new business area as a natural consequence of an activity that has been developing over the past few years, and more than that, due to the combination of two factors that generate undeniable competitive advantages of the group against the market: (i) its long experience in urban rehabilitation work and (ii) its high financial capacity. The combination of these two factors allows the dst group to address high-impact projects in the context of urban renewal with flexible value propositions to their customers or partners, about the various methods of financing of investments to be made. The evolution shown by the Real Estate turnover does not reflect at all, the conviction that the dst group has in its potential growth and it leading to its autonomy as a new business area within the group, initiating significant real estate promotional investments. However, in conjunctural terms, the year 2016 sets the beginning of the economic recovery in an important set of indicators that measure the evolution of demand, production and employment, and the investment in construction and the gross value added of the sector continuously to growth. Therefore, and as corollary of the activity expansion, the proportional turnover of the Real Estate business area amounted to € 4.1M in 2016, which shows a sharp increase of € 2.77M compared to 2015 (i.e., + 207.97%). It should be noted that, in 2016, the net result of this business area amounted to € 0.8M, which represents an increase of € 3.8M (+ 125.22%) year-on-year, corresponding to 9.8% of dst group’s consolidated total in the year. This value is strongly conditioned by the reversal recognition of impairment losses, which had been considered in 2015, reflecting the value loss experienced by the Real Estate because of the crisis that this industry has passed.

Entity Identification

dst group was constituted in 1999, its registered office is in Palmeira – Braga, being the shareholder company DST – SGPS, S.A., which object is the management of shareholdings from other entities as an indirect form of exercises the economic activities in engineering and construction sector, water and sanitation, renewable energies, telecommunications and other services.

These financial statements are the Entity's individual financial statements. All the amounts presented in these notes are expressed in Euros, unless otherwise stated.

2.

Accounting referential for the financial statements preparation

2.1.

Accounting Normalization System (“SNC – Sistema de Normalização Contabilística”)

The financial statements herewith were prepared according with all standards of SNC, approved by the law-decree nº158/2009, of 13th July, republished by the law-decree nº 98/2015, of 2nd of June which includes the Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards (NCRF) adapted by the Accounting Normalization Committee (CNC) based on the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) settled by the Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and adopted by the European Union (EU). In order to ensure the proper and true expression of the financial position and the entity’s performance, were used the standards that integrate the SNC, referred to above, in all aspects pertaining to the recognition, measurement and disclosure. However where the NCRF do not respond to particular aspects of transactions or situations are complementarily applied in the following order, the International Accounting Standards, as adopted pursuant to Regulation (EC) number 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and Council of July 19, the International Accounting Standards (IAS) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the IASB, and respective SIC-IFRIC interpretations.

Consolidated Annual Report 2016

Complying with the regulation that become effective on the 1st o January of 2016, we relive that the most significant impact on the financial statements of the entity that occurred in “Adjustments / other changes in equity” and in Other current liabilities, resulting in a raise in the adjustments/other changes in equity and a decrease in Other current liabilities in the amount of 9.988.788,10 euros, by virtue of the recognition, with prospective effects, of “Subsidies adjustments”, provided by the framework note for account “593 – allowance”.

3.

Main accounting policies

The main accounting policies used for the preparation of the financial statements are stated below. 3.1. Presentation basis The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the business continuity, based on the historical cost convention and prepared from the dst group’s accounting records, kept in accordance with IFRS in force at the date of the financial statements preparation. The group adopted the provisions of IFRIC 12 - Service Concession Arrangements and SIC 29 - Disclosure - Service Concession Arrangements. The IFRIC 12 defines the rules to be followed in the concession arrangements, given the services provided and its control power over the concession assets. Under the concession activity, the Group recognised an intangible asset that represents the right to the infrastructure use and exploitation provided by the Grantor. Although it is the group responsibility to finance the infrastructure construction, since all goods are to integrate the concession and automatically will be subject to the non-transferability terms and assets reversal, are not considered as assets controlled by the Group, and therefore not recognised as tangible fixed assets. Through the analysis performed to the economic and financial rebalancing conditions provided on the concession agreement, it is founded that certain rebalancing conditions are directly associated with the demand risk, while others are on the Grantor’s dependence or other associated entities, and from the interest rates fluctuations in financial markets. And based on this analysis it was concluded that the rebalancing conditions act as a Grantor’s guarantee, limiting the margin earned by the Group and by placing a ceiling on the grant return. But that does not constitute a right to receive from the Grantor or his behalf, whereby the values invested in the concession were recognised as an intangible asset. Based on the IFRS provisions and complementarily on the IFRIC 12, the accounting policies adopted by the group were as follows:

dst - sgps, s.a.

Consolidated Annual Report 2016

3.1.1. Continuity assumption Under the continuity assumption, the dst group has evaluated the information available and its future expectations, taking into account the entity's ability to continue with your business. Of the evaluation resulted that the business is able to proceed assuming its continuity.

3.1.2. Accruals assumption (or economic periodization) The dst group records its income and expenses in accordance with the rules of the increase, by which income and expenses are recognised as they are generated, regardless of when they are received or paid. The differences between the amounts received and paid and the corresponding income and expenses are recognised under "Deferrals" or "Other receivables� or “Other payables".

3.1.3. Consistency of presentation The items presentation and classification in the financial statements are consistent from one period to another.

3.1.4. Materiality and aggregation The materiality depends on the size and nature of the error or omission, sober in the circumstances that surround it. It is considered that the omissions or incorrect statements are materially relevant items if they can, individually or collectively, influence the economic decisions taken by users of financial statements. An item that is not materially relevant to justify its separate presentation on the face of the financial statements can however be relevant material to be presented separately in the notes to this annex.

3.1.5. Compensation The assets and liabilities, income and costs are reported separately in the respective items of the balance sheet and the income statement, so that no assets were compensated for any liability or any expense for any income, both vice-versa. Gains and losses arising from a group of similar transactions are reported on a net basis, ie, gains and losses from exchange rate differences and gains or losses arising on financial instruments held for trading. These gains and losses are reported separately if they are materially relevant.

Consolidated Annual Report 2016

3.1.6. Comparative Information The accounting policies and measurement bases adopted at December 31, 2016 are comparable with those used in preparing the financial statements for December 31, 2015, with the exception of “Deferred tax liabilities” and “Other payables”, in so far as reflect the adjustments described in Note 2. The comparability of the information between periods is continuously improvement object in order to be increasingly an instrument of help to users allowing them to take economic decisions and assessing the trends in financial information for forecasting purposes.

3.2. Recognition and measurement policies used in the preparation of financial statements

3.2.1.

Transactions in foreign currency

The dst group’s financial statements are presented in euros; the euro is the functional and presentation currency. The transactions in foreign currency (currency other than the functional currency of the dst group) are recognised at exchange rates of the dates of the transactions. At each reporting date, the carrying amounts of monetary items denominated in foreign currency are updated at the exchange rates that date. The carrying amounts of non-monetary items are recognised at fair value denominated in a foreign currency are updated to the exchange rates of the dates on which the respective fair values were determined. The carrying amounts of non-monetary items are recognised at historical cost, denominated in a foreign currency are not upgraded. Positive or negative exchange differences driven out from differences between the exchange rates in force at the transaction dates and at the dates of collection, payment or of balance sheet are recognised as income and/or expenses in the period’s income statement as foreign exchange gains and/or losses. 3.2.2.

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are recognised at acquisition cost, net of related depreciation and any impairment losses. The acquisition cost includes all expenditure directly attributable to the acquisition of such assets and to their availability in local and operational conditions required. Subsequent charges are included in the acquisition cost of the asset or recognised as separate assets, as appropriate, when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the dst group through its use and its cost can be reliably measured.

dst - sgps, s.a.

Page 62 of 111


Consolidated Annual Report 2016

Tangible assets in progress, fixed assets still under construction or completion, are accounted for at acquisition cost deducted of eventual impairment losses. The depreciation of these assets starts at the moment that they are available for use. Depreciation are calculated from the straight-line method, applied annually under duodecimal attribution since the date the assets are ready for use and in the required conditions in terms of quality and technical, to operate according to intended by the dst group, considering the most appropriate economic rates to allow the full reintegration of the assets during their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives is determined taking into account the expected use of the asset by the dst group, the natural wear expected, the subjection to technical obsolescence and salvage value attributable. Provided that the dst group does not have a reliable estimate of the residual value of its assets it was considered null value for depreciation of tangible fixed assets purposes. Whenever there is evidence that a significant change occurred in the useful life or in the residual amount of an asset, its depreciation is reviewed on a prospective basis in order to reflect such new expectations. The average annual depreciation rates and the useful lives were considered as follows: Useful live

Other tangible fixed assets

The depreciation method and useful lives of the various assets are reviewed annually. The effect of any changes to these estimates will be recognised prospectively in the income statement. Repairs and maintenance expenses that do not increase the useful life of the assets and do not results in significant improvements in the elements of tangible fixed assets are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. The major repairs relating to the replacement of equipment are recorded in tangible fixed assets and depreciated at rates corresponding to the residual life of the respective assets. dst - sgps, s.a.

Page 63 of 111


Consolidated Annual Report 2016

The gains or losses resulting from the write-off or sale of tangible fixed assets are determined by the difference between the amount received from the sale and the assets' carrying amount and are recognised in the income statement as "Other revenues and income" or "Other losses and expenses", respectively.

3.2.3.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are accounted for at acquisition cost deducted from amortizations and any accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets only are recognised if it is probable that they will produce future economic benefits to the dst group and if they are controllable and can be reliably measured. Most intangible assets consist of software and are amortized in accordance with the straight-line method with duodecimal attribution since the date the assets are ready for use, considering the most appropriate economic rates to allow the full reintegration of the assets during their estimated useful lives. No residual value is considered. The average annual depreciation rates and the useful lives were considered as follows: Useful live

The gains or losses resulting from the write-off or sale of intangible fixed assets are determined by the difference between the sale price and the assets' carrying amount and are recognised in the income statement as "Other operating income" or "Other operating charges", respectively. The amortization cost of intangible assets with finite useful lives is recognised in the income statement under the heading "Depreciation and amortization net of reversals".

dst - sgps, s.a.

Consolidated Annual Report 2016

There are some details below regarding the concession rights:

Concession rights related to the concession activity For the goods (which arise in infrastructure usage rights – IFRIC 12) with useful lives above the concession period, the amortization of initial investment or which may be subsequently adopted or imposed by the Grantor and that materialize in expansion or modernization of initial obligations, should normally be for a period of the concession. However, additional investments, modernization or expansion whose lifetime extends beyond the term of the concession, and that present residual value shall give rise to compensation equivalent to the amount not yet amortized at the date of the end of the concession. Depreciation is calculated by the sum of units, i.e. by depreciation of contractual investment in economic and financial feasibility study used, based on effluent flow rates charged during this period and the effluent to invoice until the end of the concession provided for in the feasibility study.

3.2.4.

Investment properties

Investment properties consist of land and buildings and other constructions whose purposes are to obtain rents and equity valorization and not for administrative purposes nor for sale in the course of the entity’s current activity. Investment properties are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The costs incurred with investment properties in use, such as maintenance, repairs, insurance and property taxes are recognised in the income statement of the period to which they relate. The improvements in respect of which it is estimated that generate future additional economic benefits are capitalized under investment properties. The average annual depreciation rates and the useful lives were considered as follows: Useful live

3.2.5.

Goodwill

The Goodwill corresponds to future economic benefits arising from assets which are not able to be individually identified and separately recognised. The Goodwill on Subsidiaries encompassed in the consolidation is reflected in their individualized heading in the balance sheet. The Goodwill on Subsidiaries not encompassed in the consolidation, the Associates and joint ventures is reflected in the value of the corresponding financial participation are presented in the balance sheet under the heading Financial investments – the equity method or Financial investments – other methods, as the case may be.

Where the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities identifiable exceeds the cost of the business combination, the difference is immediately recognised in the results of the period after reevaluation of the identification and measurement of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities identifiable from the acquired and the measurement of the cost of the concentration. When Goodwill is part of a cash-generating unit and part of an operation within that unit is disposed, the Goodwill associated with the alienated operation is included in the book value of the transaction to determine the gain or loss of operation. Goodwill derecognised under these circumstances is measured on the basis of relative values between the alienated operation and portion of the cash-generating unit maintained. Depreciation Under paragraph 46 of NCRF 14, Goodwill is amortized by the straight-line method, since it is an intangible asset with an indefinite useful life. The average annual depreciation rates and the useful lives for Goodwill were considered as follows:

Goodwill

Useful live

Annual Rate (%)

10 to 15.25

6.557 to 10

Impairment Impairment of Goodwill is tested at least annually. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired according to the NCRF 12 — impairment of assets, impairment of Goodwill is tested more frequently, i.e., whenever conditions so determine. Impairment losses of Goodwill cannot be reversed. dst - sgps, s.a.

3.2.6.

Financial investments

a)

Financial investments - equity method

Investments in subsidiaries and associates are valued according to the equity method, defining themselves as such entities over which the Group exercises control or significant influence, generally investments representing more than 20% of the capital of a company, and they are not Joint Ventures. For the determination of control or significant influence are taken into consideration the interests existing at the present date in accordance with potential voting rights. According to the equity method, the financial investments are recognised at their acquisition cost, adjusted by the amount corresponding to the company participation in the net results of associates and subsidiaries, against profit or loss for the period, and by the dividends received, net of accumulated impairment losses. Any excess of the acquisition cost over the value of the equity percentage held is considered "Goodwill", being presented on an autonomous line in the balance sheet and its recovery analyzed annually as part of the investment, and if the difference is negative ("Badwill"), after reassessment of the valuation process and if it remains in the income statement, as it is realized. Is performed an assessment of investments in subsidiaries and associated companies or other when there are indications that the asset may be impaired, and recognised a loss in the income statement whenever it is confirmed. When the proportion of the entity in accumulated losses of associated company or subsidiary exceeds the value of the investment is recognised, the investment is reported at nil value while the equity of the associated company is not positive, except when the entity has made commitments to the associated our subsidiary company, registering such cases a provision under the liability item 'Provisions' to meet these obligations. The unrealized gains on transactions with associated companies are eliminated in proportion to the interest of the company in the associated company against the investment in these companies. The unrealized losses are similarly disposed, but only to the extent that the loss does not evidence that the asset transferred is in impaired. Subsequent to the date of acquisition, the carrying amount of investments: 

Was increased or decreased to recognise the part on the results of the investee after the date of the acquisition;



Was reduced by distributions of received results;



Was increased or decreased to reflect, by contrast, changes in the equity of the group in the reported interest in

dst - sgps, s.a.

Page 67 of 111


Consolidated Annual Report 2016

proportion resulting from these changes in equity that are not recognised in their results. In the measurement of these investments it was still respected the following provisions concerning the application of this method: 

The financial statements of joint ventures were already prepared, or were adjusted extra accounting, in order to match the Group's accounting policies before they can be used in the determination of equity effects;

The financial statements of joint ventures used in determining the equity effects consist of the same date of the Group;

The results arising from transactions ' ascendants ' and ' descendants ' are recognised only insofar as they correspond to the interests of other investors in associated, not related to the investor.

When the value of the investment is reduced to zero, additional losses are taken into account by the recognition of a liability when the company incurs legal obligations or constructive. When later the joint ventures report profits, the Group invested resumes its recognition only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognised.

b)

Other financial investments

The entity uses the cost model in relation to investments in other entities in which the equity or proportional consolidation methods are not mandatory and in which it is unable to reliably determine their fair value, namely investments in companies with securities out of a regulated market. According to the cost model investments are initially recognised at acquisition cost, which includes transaction costs, and subsequently its value is decreased by eventual impairment losses. The entity uses the fair value model in financial investments in companies listed on a regulated market, whose fair value can be obtained and reliably determined.

Impairment The company evaluated the impairment of these assets at the end of the year. Whenever there was an objective evidence of impairment, the company recognised an impairment loss in the income statement. Objective evidence of impairment took into account observable data that called the attention about the following loss events: 

Significant financial difficulty of the issuer;

The disappearance of an active market for financial asset due to financial difficulties of the debtor;

dst - sgps, s.a.

Page 68 of 111


Consolidated Annual Report 2016



Observable data indicating that there is a decrease in the measurement of the estimated future cash flows of a financial group assets since its initial recognition; and



Significant changes with an adverse effect occurring in the technological environment, market, economic or legal under which the issuer operates.

The company uses the fair value model in financial investments in companies listed on a regulated market and whose fair value can be obtained and reliably determined.

3.2.7. Inventories Goods, raw materials, subsidiary and consumable materials are valued at the lower of their average acquisition cost and net realizable value (estimated sales price net of costs to be incurred for their disposal), using the FIFO as cost formula. The finished and semi-finished products, by-products and products and work in progress are valued at production cost or net realizable value (if this is lower). The production costs include the cost of raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overheads. If the net realizable value is lower, in particular due to the decrease in the market price, deterioration or obsolescence, rising of finishing or necessary costs to perform the sale, or of the recoverable value by using the conversion into finished products whose market price has been reduced, it is justified the recognition of impairments in the periods that the adjustment needs are found, using replacement cost as a reference. The reversal of impairment losses recognised in prior periods is recorded when there is evidence that impairment losses are no longer justified or decreased, being expressed in the income statement as "Impairment of inventory net of reversals". However, the reversal is only done up to the amount of the accumulated impairment losses. The expenses related to inventory sold are recorded in the same reporting period in which revenue is recognised.

3.2.8.

Leases

The classification as operating or financial leases depends on the respective contract’s substance and not on its form. Lease contracts are classified as finance leases, if through them are substantially transferred all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset leased or otherwise as operating leases.

Financial leases Tangible fixed assets acquired through financial lease contracts and their correspondent liabilities are recognised in accordance with the provisions of NCRF 9 - Leases. According to this method the cost of the asset is recorded as tangible fixed asset, the correspondent responsibility is accounted for as a liability and the financial charges included in the rent and the depreciations of the leased assets are recognised as expenses in the income statement in the period to which they relate. Operating leases In leases considered operational, the rents payable are recognised as expense in the income statement over the period of the lease and in accordance with the obligations inherent to these. 3.2.9.

Contingent assets and liabilities

Contingent assets are possible assets arising from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed if occurs, or not, one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the entity’s control. If it is probable the existence of future economic benefits, the entity does not recognise this contingent asset in its financial statements but promotes its disclosure. Contingent liabilities are defined as: (i) possible obligations arising from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed if occurs, or not, one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the entity’s control; or (ii) current obligations arising from past events that are not recognised because it is unlikely that resources flows affecting economic benefits are required to offset the obligation or because the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with enough reliability. Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the entity's financial statements but are disclosed unless the possibility of a funds outflow affecting future economic benefits is remote, in which case they are not even disclosed.

3.2.10. Provisions Provisions are recognised in accordance with the effectively required amounts to cover estimated losses, are revised at each balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the best estimate at that date. Provisions are recognised if and only if the entity has a present liability (legal or constructive) resulting from a past event and if it is probable that for the resolution of such obligation a resources outflow occurs and that the amount of the obligation can be reasonably estimated.

Employee benefits

Short-term benefits The employees’ short-term benefits include wages, salaries, Social Security contributions, food allowances, holidays and Christmas subsidies and any other retribution eventually decided by the Board of Directors. Obligations resulting from short-term benefits are accounted for as expenses in the period in which the employee has provided services on an undiscounted basis against a liability that is extinguished with the payment. According to applicable labor legislation, the right to vacation and holiday allowance for the period, for this match the calendar year expires on 31 December of each year, being paid only during the following period, the corresponding expenses are recognised as short-term benefits and treated in accordance with the mentioned above. The benefits resulting from the employment’s cessation, either by unilateral decision of the entity, or by mutual agreement, are recognised as an expense in the period in which they occurred.

Long-term benefits The long-term benefits include a health insurance that covers all employees.

3.2.12.

Financial assets and liabilities

The financial assets and liabilities are accounted for in accordance with the following criterions:

Trade debtors and other receivables Trade debtors and other receivables balances are accounted for at their nominal value and disclosed in the balance sheet, deducted from any accumulated impairment losses, recognised under “Impairment on trade receivables net of reversals”, so as to reflect their net realizable value. These items when current do not include interest because they would be immaterial for the impact of discounting. At the end of each reporting period trade debtors balances are analyzed in order to assess whether there is any objective evidence that they are not recoverable.

dst - sgps, s.a.

Page 71 of 111


Consolidated Annual Report 2016

Impairment losses are recognised after events that indicate, objectively and in a quantifiable manner, that all or part of the balance will not be received. For this purpose, the entity takes into consideration market information that demonstrates that the trade debtor is in breach of its responsibilities, as well as historical information of overdue and not received balances. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in, as well as changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables. The impairment loss is recognised as an expense in the income statement. Whenever defined / agreed with a client the settlement of respective debt into several installments, the dst group opted to value this same debt at amortized cost, satisfying all the conditions set out in IAS 27, namely that: - have a defined maturity; - returns to the holder are fixed amount, variable interest rate during the instrument life, with a typical index for financial market (Euribor) and plus a spread (5%); - does not contain any contractual clause that may result to the holder in loss of par value and accrued interest (excluding the typical cases of credit risk). Thus the difference between the nominal value and the initial fair value is recognised in the income statement over the period specified, using the effective interest method. Trade creditors and other payables Debts to suppliers or other third parties are accounted for at nominal value as they do not bear interest and the effect of discounting is immaterial. Its non- recognition only occurs when they cease their obligations under the contracts, particularly when there has been a liquidation, cancellation or expiration.

Advances from customers The Advances from customers are stated at nominal value. Discounted bills The entity writes-off financial assets from its financial statements only when it substantially transfers all the risks and benefits inherent to the ownership of such assets to a third party. If the entity substantially retains the risks and benefits inherent to the ownership of those assets, it continues recognizing them in its financial statements as liabilities related to obtained loans correspondent to the monetary counter-entry for the transferred assets. dst - sgps, s.a.

State and others public entities The balance assets and liabilities under this heading are established on the basis of existing legislation. With regard to assets was not recognised any impairment by if it considers that this is not applicable given the specific nature of the relationship. Loans and other non-current payables Loans and other non-current payables are accounted for at cost as liabilities, net of transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of these liabilities, being expressed in the balance in current or non-current liabilities depending on their maturity occurs within or more than one year, respectively. Its non- recognition only occurs when they cease their obligations under the contracts, particularly when there has been a liquidation, cancellation or expiration. The interest and other costs incurred in financings are calculated according to the effective interest rate and recognised in the income statement for the period in accordance with the increase presupposition. The “non-asset-related financial charges” are recognised as expenses of the period being registered in the income statement under “Interest payable and similar charges”. Financial assets The entity uses the fair value model in the valuation of shares held in companies listed on a regulated market, whose fair value can be obtained and determined viably. Cash and cash equivalents The cash and cash equivalents balance includes cash, bank deposits and other short-term investments that can be immediately mobilized without significant risk of value fluctuations. Financial liabilities and equity instruments Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual transaction, regardless of their legal form.

dst - sgps, s.a.

Page 73 of 111


Consolidated Annual Report 2016

A financial instrument is classified as a financial liability when there is a contractual obligation to their settlement to be effected by delivering cash or another financial asset. Financial liabilities are initially recorded at cost, net of transaction costs incurred. An equity instrument is classified as such when there is not a contractual obligation to their settlement to be effected by delivering cash or another financial asset, evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Costs directly attributable to issue of equity instruments are recognised in equity as a deduction of issue. Amounts paid or received for purchases and sales of equity instruments are recognised in equity, net of transaction costs.

Other financial liabilities This heading includes derivative financial instruments for which there is actual coverage under the NCRF 27. Are only considered financial instruments to hedge the effective portion of derivatives that are designated as such and that the entity expects that the changes in fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged item, that risk is being covered, will compensate for virtually any changes in fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments risk coverage of interest rate variability are recognised in equity in the rubric "Financial assets adjustments " in its effective component and in results, under the heading "Increase/decrease in fair value", in its actual not component. The values recorded under the heading "Financial assets adjustments" are transferred to results for the heading "Increase/decrease in fair value" in the period in which the hedged item has no effect on results. Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument reaches maturity, when it is sold or exercised or when the relationship ceases to meet the coverage requirements on NCRF 27 - Financial Instruments. The effective portion of the hedge derivative instruments are presented in the balance sheet under "Other financial assets" or "Other financial liabilities" depending on their nature is, respectively, a debtor or creditor and as non-current or current depending on the heading where as their instruments covered are presented in the balance sheet.

Revenue

Revenue comprehends income associated with sales and services rendered. Revenue is recognised on sales when the buyer takes the risks and benefits inherent to the ownership of the goods sold and as what concerns to services revenue is recognised in the income statement when such services are rendered, taking into consideration the proportion of services rendered in the period and the total services agreed. Revenue is not recognised when it is related to situations of uncertainty of acceptance or payment of those services. Whereas invoiced services are higher than the services rendered, the difference is recorded as income to be recognised and is accounted for in the income statement at the time such services are rendered and the correspondent expenses are incurred.

Construction contracts

The entity recognises the construction works’ results contract per contract in accordance with the completion percentage method, which is understood to be as the relationship between the expenses incurred on each work at a determined date and the sum of those expenses with the expenses estimated to be incurred for its completion. The differences between the amounts resulting from the application of the completion percentage method with the estimated income and invoiced amounts are accounted for as non-invoiced production or advanced invoicing, which are included within as "Other receivables - Receivables from accrued income " (Asset) or "Deferred - Income to recognise" (Liability). Changes in work from the amount of revenue settled in the correspondent contract are recognised in the period’s results when it is probable that the customer accepts the revenue amount arising from the variation and that this can be reliably measured. Claims for costs reimbursement not included in the contract price are included in the contract’s revenue when negotiations are at such an advanced stage that it is probable that the customer accepts the complaint and that it is possible to measure it reliably. When it is probable that the construction contract’s total expenses exceed the income defined therein, the expected loss is immediately recognised in the period’s income statement.

3.2.16.

Subsidies and other support from public entities

The subsidies are recognised at their fair value when there is sure to be received and that the entity will comply with the conditions of the grant. Operational subsidies are intended to cover expenses incurred and recorded, particularly with the development of vocational training actions, and they are recognised as income as the expenses are incurred, regardless of the time of receipt of the grant. The non-refundable subsidies for financing tangible fixed assets and intangible fixed assets are recognised in the balance sheet under "Adjustments / Other changes in equity", net of the associated tax amount (as set out in the note to the account "593 - subsidies "), by the amount of the incentive corresponding to investment subsidies. In liabilities, under "Other payables" (account 28 - "Income to be recognised"), the part corresponding to operating subsidies (income related subsidies) is recognised.

Impairment of assets

At each reporting date, and whenever are disclosed an event or changes in circumstances indicating that the asset’s recorded amount may not be recoverable an impairment of assets evaluation is assessed. Whenever the amount by which the asset is recorded is higher than its recoverable amount, is recognised as an impairment loss recorded in the income statement as "'Impairment of investments depreciables/amortizables net of reversals� or as "Impairment on trade receivables net of reversals", if it respects the non-depreciable assets. The recoverable amount is the higher of the net selling price and value in use. The net selling price is the amount obtainable from the sale of the asset in a transaction between independent entities, less the costs directly attributable to the sale. The value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows that are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset and from its sale at the end of its useful life. The recoverable amount is estimated for each asset individually or, if not possible, to the unit generating cash flows to which the asset belongs. After the recognition of an impairment loss, the expense related to the amortization/depreciation of the asset is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset's revised carrying amount, less its residual value (if any) on a systematic basis over the useful life remaining. Whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset is recorded can not be retrieved, it made a new assessment of impairment. Reversal of impairment losses recognised in previous years is registered when it is concluded that previously recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in the income statement under aforementioned. The reversal of the impairment loss is made up to the amount that would be recognised (net of amortization or depreciation) if the impairment loss had not been recorded in previous periods.

Income tax

The expense relating to period’s income tax corresponds to the sum of current and deferred taxes. Current income tax is based on the entity’s taxable profits in accordance with the enforceable tax regulations, whilst deferred taxes result from temporary differences between accounting and tax assets and liabilities. The taxable profit is different from the accounting result, provided that it excludes expenses and revenues that are taxable or deductible in other periods. The taxable profit also excludes expenses and revenues that will never be taxed or deducted. The entity shall record deferred taxes related to temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax base as provided in NCRF 25 - Deferred income taxes, whenever it is probable that future taxable profits will be generated against which the differences temporary and can be used based on the standard rate of corporation tax to the balance sheet date. Deferred taxes assets and liabilities are calculated and annually evaluated based under the tax rates in force or announced to be in force at the time of the expected reversal of temporary differences. The deferred tax assets are recognised only when there is a reasonable expectation of future taxable profits to be deducted from such assets, or in situations where there are taxable temporary differences to offset the deductible temporary differences in the period of its reversal. At each reporting date a review of those deferred tax assets is carried out and such are adjusted in accordance with the expectations concerning their future use. Current and deferred taxes are accounted for in the income statement except when are related to items directly recognised as equity. In these cases, the correspondent deferred taxes are also recognised as equity. Tax returns may be subject to review and possible corrections by the tax authorities for a period of four years (five years for Social Security). So corrections may be made for the years 2013 and following, not being expected, however, that the possible course corrections will significantly affect the financial statements. The above time limit may be extended or suspended provided that tax benefits have been obtained, there are inspections, claims or contestations ongoing, or has been tax losses, in which, over a period of six years after its occurrence, relatively to previous periods to 2010, four years for the period from 2010 to 2014 and five years for subsequent periods, these are susceptible of deduction to the taxable income that may be generated.

The taxes are not paid, relating to the current period or the previous are recognised as a liability at the amount that is estimated to be paid based on the rates and tax laws applicable to the balance sheet date. However, if the amounts already paid in respect of such periods exceed the amounts due, are recognised as assets to the extent of the excess. Current tax is also conditioned by the adjustments, positive or negative, which are to be recognised in the period for current tax of previous periods. The tax effects of the transition adjustments resulting from the succession of accounting standards are regulated by article 5 of the Law-decree number 159/2009 of July 13, which provides that such adjustments contribute to the formation of profit taxable in a 5 year period, in equal parts, beginning in 2010 and ending in 2016. 3.3.

Other significant accounting policies:

Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include, as at December 31, 2016 and 2015, the assets, liabilities and results of group companies, understood as a set of dst group and its subsidiaries, which are presented in note 5.

As described in no. 6 of Law-Decree no. 158/2009 of July 13, with the amendments resulting from Law-Decree no. 98/2015 of July 2, approving the SNC, the entity presents the consolidated accounts of the group constituted by itself and by all subsidiaries on which: a)

Regardless of the ownership of capital, it is found that, in alternative:

Is able to exercise, or actually exercises, dominant influence or control;

Pursuing the management as if the two constitute a single entity;

b)

Being holder of capital, when one of the following situations occurs:

Has a majority of the voting rights, unless it is demonstrated that such rights do not confer the respective control;

Has the right to appoint or remove a majority of the members of the management board of an entity with the power to govern the financial and operating policies of that entity;

Exercises a dominant influence over an entity, pursuant to a contract celebrated with this entity or from another clause of this social contract;

Holds at least 20% of the voting rights and the majority of the holders of the management board of an entity empowered to govern the financial and operating policies of that entity, reports during the financial year to which the consolidated financial statements, as well as, in the preceding financial year and up to the moment they are prepared, have been appointed solely as a result of the exercise of its voting rights;

Available, by itself or by virtue of an agreement with other holders of the capital of this entity, a majority of its voting rights of capital holders.

Subsidiaries are companies controlled by the dst group and are consolidated by the full consolidation method since the date of acquisition, which is the date on which the group gets control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that control ceases to exist. In the consolidation process, transactions, balances and unrealised profits on intragroup transactions and dividends between group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated, unless the transaction reveals evidence of the existence of impairment in assets transferred and not alienated. The jointly controlled financial investments are included in the consolidation by the proportional consolidation method, from the date that joint control is acquired until the date on which it actually ends. Under this method, assets, liabilities, income and expenses of these businesses were incorporated in consolidated financial statements, line by line, in proportion to the assigned control of dst group. Associated companies are entities over which the investor has significant influence and which are not considered subsidiaries or joint ventures. The financial participations in associated companies are consolidated by the equity method, that is, the financial statements include the Group's interest in the total of income and expense recognised of the associate, from the date that significant influence begins until the date on which it actually ends. The dividends received from these companies are recorded as a reduction in the value of financial holdings. The shares, in relation to which the group does not carry significant influence over their activity, are recognised at the lower value between the purchase cost and the value of achievement. The amounts of equity of consolidated subsidiaries by integral method, attributable to the shares held by third parties unrelated to the companies included in the consolidation are included in the consolidated balance sheet under the heading of Non-controlling interests. Non-controlling interests on the net income of consolidated subsidiaries are identified and adjusted against the results of the Group and included in the consolidated income statement under the heading of non-controlling interests.

3.4. Judgments and estimates (assumptions and uncertainties) The preparation of financial statements in conformity with NCRF standards requires the consideration of certain accounting estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets and liabilities or revenues and expenses amounts. When necessary, all estimates and assumptions considered by the Board of Directors were made based under its best knowledge of events and transactions in progress at the date of the approval of the financial statements. Changes to these estimates, which occur after the date of the financial statements, will be recognised in the income statement prospectively.

Consolidated Annual Report 2016

35. Events after the balance sheet date Between the reporting date of the Financial Statements (December 31, 2016) and the clearance date for its disclosure (April 18, 2017), there were no material facts warranting disclosures or changes to the Financial Statements for the period.

36. Disclosures required by law The Management Board reports that the entity has no debts to the State in arrears in accordance with Law-decree number 534/80 of November 7. Pursuant the requirements of the Article 210 of the Contributory Code, published by the Law number 110/2009 of September 16, the Management Board informs that the situation of the entity with respect to Social Security is regularized within the legally stipulated deadlines. Pursuant to the requirements of the Article 66º of the Code of Commercial Companies, the entity informs that the Statutory Auditor’s charged fees (Chartered Accountant) amounted to 103,524.95 Euros, which solely cover the statutory audit services. During the period ended December 31, 2016, the dst group in research and development (“R&D”) expanses amounting 1.105.057,95 euros considered eligible for the use of the Tax Incentive System in Business Research and Development (“SIFIDE II”), pursuant to article 6 of Law no. 40/2005, in the wording given by Law No. 162/2014, whereby the Tax Incentives Certification Commission for Business R&D awarded to the dst group a tax credit amount of 808,597.75 euros. As in the 2015 taxation period, the dst group’s companies taxed under the Special Taxation Regime of Companies’ Groups (“RETGS”) in which it is inserted, did not obtain a sufficient Corporate Income Tax (IRC) collection to deduct that tax credit, the amount of 133,221.76 euros will be used by the dst group in the 2016 taxation period. In 2016, the dst group also incurred R&D expenses of 1.504.625,14 euros that could be eligible for the use of SIFIDE II. In this sense, the dst group is preparing a candidacy to address the Tax Incentives Certifying Committee for Business R&D, to obtain a declaration proving that the activities carried out effectively correspond to R&D activities. If such request is granted by the competent authorities, the dst group will be able to benefit from a corporate income tax (IRC) deduction of 898,015.17 euros. Pursuant to the requirements of paragraphs 1 and 2 of Article 23 of Investment Tax Code (ITC), dst group considered an tax benefit related to the Tax Regime of Investment Support (TRIS) relative to 2016 of 43,181.44 euros, corresponding to 25% of this year eligible investment (172,725.74 euros). dst - sgps, s.a.
