11. OUTLOOK FOR 2014

In 2014, the Portuguese economy is expected to return to positive GDP growth (1.1%

according to the Portuguese Central Bank). However, there are still several factors that can and

may offset the economical turnaround, being the most relevant the high level of unemployment

and the considerable tax burden on individuals and companies.

The health insurance market in Portugal has maintained its historical growth trajectory, with

an increase in premiums volume of 2.6% in the first half of 2014 (which compares with 2.4% in

the first quarter of the year). Relatively to the main healthcare subsystem (ADSE), the increase of

beneficiaries’ monthly contribution has been approved by the Constitutional Court, which allows

for the self sustainability of the system solely through this source. According to the latest ADSE

activity report, despite the contributions increase, the number of requests for termination was

very low (428 beneficiaries in 2013).

On the healthcare market, ESS believes the public sector will continue to be under

significant pressure on the available funding, which may have implications on access levels,

modernization of public hospitals and staff motivation.

In the remaining months of 2014, ESS will maintain its focus on leveraging the high demand

verified for its services on the private healthcare segment, in order to continue improving

capacity utilization, assets turnover and overall profitability. Simultaneously, the company will

proceed with its capacity expansion plans, namely in Hospital da Luz, in Hospital da Arrábida and

in Hospital da Luz – Clínica de Oeiras.

On the public healthcare segment, the Group will be focused on maintaining high levels of

activity growth (yearly growth expectation of 8 to 10%, based on contracted activity and

performance to date) and on efficiency enhancement initiatives, in order to continue to improve

Hospital Beatriz Ângelo’s profitability levels.

Additionally, the Group expects that, following the contacts with the Ministry of Health, the

Portuguese State will proceed, in the second half of 2014, to recognize the right of Hospital

Beatriz Angelo to receive payment for additional healthcare services rendered in outpatient

context to HIV/AIDS patients. This right is recognized to NHS hospitals and to Hospital de Braga

public-private partnership since 2013, after approval from the Court of Auditors. This

corresponds to a measure with significant impact in the hospitals’ financial performance. In

particular, for Hospital Beatriz Ângelo, the recognition of this right would represent an impact of

€1.0 million in operating revenues in the first half of 2014 and an estimated value of € 2.2 million

for the full year.

In the senior care market, the Group will expand the residential unit dedicated to early

dementia patients in its main senior residence (Casas da Cidade).

Regarding the project for a new private Hospital in Luanda, the Group will continue to

develop the initial planning and design activities in close collaboration with Teixeira Duarte.

12. HIGHLIGHTS FOR HALF OF 2014

In the first half of 2014, our business continued to grow, both in the private healthcare

segment and in the public healthcare segment.

Consolidated operating revenues increased by 6.4% vis-à-vis 2013 first half, reaching

€201.1 million

Consolidated EBITDA grew 1.0% to €28.3 million, with an EBITDA margin of 14.1%

versus 14.8% in 2013 H1, explained by structural costs increase associated with the fact

that ESS is now a listed company and by non recurrent effects (extraordinary revenue in

2013 Q2, extraordinary marketing costs in 2014 and return to a historical level of

provisions for clients bad debt)

Net Income attributable to shareholders was €8.7 million, representing a 45% growth

versus the same period in 2013

Total CAPEX of €7.5 million, of which €3.8 million corresponded to maintenance CAPEX

(1.9% of operating revenues)

ESS net debt decreased €26.1 million to €184.1 million (12% reduction versus 2013 FY),

reaching an annualized net debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.2x, comparing to 3.6x in 2013 EOY

In 2014 H1, Espírito Santo Saúde consolidated operating revenues increased by 6.4%

vis-à-vis 2013 H1, reaching €201.1 million, mainly driven by activity growth on the

private

healthcare segment (+4.5%) and on Hospital Beatriz Ângelo in the public healthcare

segment (+12.5%). The second quarter of 2014 presented a lower revenue growth

(4.3%) over the same period in 2013, when compared with the first quarter, due to less

work days (2014 first quarter had one more workday than in 2013 and 2014 second

quarter had less one workday than in 2013).

EBITDA reached €28.3 million in 2014 H1 (1.0% growth versus 2013 corresponding

period) and EBITDA margin reached 14.1%, a 0.8 p.p. decrease vis-à-vis 2013 H1. This

performance was driven by the increase in structural costs associated with the fact that

ESS is now a listed company and by the EBITDA margin 1.1 p.p. decrease on the private

healthcare segment, versus 2013 H1 EBITDA margin, reaching 18.4%. Regarding

Hospital Beatriz Ângelo (PPP), it evolved from a €0.1 million negative EBITDA in 2013

H1 to a €1.4 million positive EBITDA in 2014 H1, reaching a 3.1% EBITDA margin.

Net income attributable to shareholders reached €8.7 million, representing a 45.4%

growth versus the same period in 2013, driven by the operational results and by the

financial results improvement, as a result of outstanding debt reduction and spreads

improvement.

15. The Health Sector in Portugal

In Portugal the healthcare sector revolves around the national health system (Sistema

Nacional de Saúde), which was created in 1979 to provide universal healthcare to all citizens in

all parts of the country, regardless of their social and economic status.

16. The healthcare regulatory environment in Portugal

The healthcare sector is one of the basic pillars of the State and it is a highly regulated

sector. The healthcare delivery system in Portugal consists of a network of public and private

healthcare service providers, with all healthcare delivery being coordinated by the Ministry of

Health – the government department responsible for defining and implementing national health

policy, ensuring sustainable use of resources and evaluation of outcomes as well as the funding

of public healthcare. Pursuant to Law 48/90 of 24 August (the Basic Law on Health) the Ministry

of Health’s primary function is to plan, regulate and manage the national health system (NHS), as

well as to supervise and inspect private healthcare service providers, whether they are

integrated into the NHS or not.

In 1993, a new NHS Statute was approved (Decree-Law 11/93 of 15 January) that identifies

and clarifies the role of the NHS. The NHS provides mainly direct acute hospital care, general

healthcare and maternity and pediatric services. Specialist and dental consultations, diagnostic

services, kidney dialysis, and physiotherapy treatments are more commonly provided in the

private sector (although they are in large part publicly funded).

Diagnostic services, kidney dialysis, and physiotherapy treatments are typically provided by

private practitioners under agreements with the NHS. No healthcare services are explicitly

excluded from NHS coverage except for dental services (which are neither provided nor funded

by the NHS). Highly specialized medical treatment that cannot be provided in Portugal for lack of

technical or human resources may be provided abroad under the NHS coverage in accordance

with specific legislation.

The amounts to be paid for healthcare provided under the NHS are established by the

Ministry of Health, as set out in Ministerial Order 163/2013 of 24 April. All hospitals belonging to

the NHS are an integral part of the public sector, including hospital facilities operated under

public-private partnership agreements (PPPs), as is the case of Hospital Beatriz Angelo (HBA) in

Loures. In addition to the NHS, there are several other healthcare subsystems. These subsystems

allow individuals other options when choosing a healthcare provider. Under these subsystems,

healthcare is provided either by professionals directly hired by these subsystems or through

contracts with public and/or private healthcare providers.

与葡语国家关系

由于历史原因,葡萄牙使用葡萄牙语,是全世界葡萄牙语国家的母国。葡同非洲葡语五

国(莫桑比克、安哥拉、佛得角、几内亚比绍、圣多美和普林西比)关系较为密切。作为葡语

国家最集中的地区和葡石油、天然气的主要供应地,非洲在葡外交中的分量愈加重要。

重视加强与巴西的传统关系。这些年来,对巴西投资 90 亿欧元,有 600 多家企业参与。2012

年上半年,葡对巴直接投资突破 3 亿欧元。

葡还积极利用葡语国家共同体(简称 CPLP,即葡共体),推动葡语国家之间的政治、外

交、经贸、文化合作。该共同体于 1996 年 7 月由葡萄牙和巴西倡议成立,总部设在里斯本,

成员国包括葡萄牙、巴西、安哥拉、莫桑比克、佛得角、几内亚比绍、圣多美和普林西比、

东帝汶(2002 年加入)

如果复星未来把非洲安哥拉和南美巴西作为拓

展的目标,葡萄牙是一个非常好的跳板。特别

是复星刚刚收购 ROC,还有扩展石油这层意义。
