    OPINION OF CADE’S ATTORNEY GENERAL (Translated from the original version in Portuguese) Cimpor informs that it acknowledged today the opinion (ref. 209/2012) of CADE’s Attorney General (competition authority of Brazil), dated 15 May and concerning the Concentration Acts involving Camargo Corrêa S.A., Votorantim Cimentos S.A., Companhia Nacional de Cimento Portland (“Lafarge”), Cimpor – Cimentos de Portugal, SGPS, S.A. (“CIMPOR”) and its subsidiary Cimpor Cimentos do Brasil Ltda. In said opinion the following conclusions are proposed: “a) Approval of the concentration act 08012.002018/2010-07 [acquisition, by Camargo Correa S.A. of 31,8% of CIMPOR’s share capital], subject to the suggestions listed [below]”: “57. Firstly, there shall be a complete segregation between CCSA and any other company acting in the cement market. That is: CCSA may not have any crossed or joint company stake with any company that acts in the same cement market, and which may affect directly and indirectly the Brazilian market. 58. Additionally, there shall be the disposal of a set of integrated assets1 in the cement and concrete and gravel markets that may facilitate the entry of an economic agent, according to the terms recently set out by CADE (…). 59. The mere disposal of concrete assets, given the market situation already assessed by CADE, would not solve the competition problem. 60. Finally, the creation of the player CCSA/CIMPOR may be reversed in the event that CCSA is convicted of Cartel conduct, totally or in part, since, as suggested by SDE2, the penalty of asset disposal may be applied to undertakings convicted of cartel practices, with the sale of cement plants with excess capacity that enable the entry of new agents into the market.” “b) Disapproval of the concentration acts AC 08012.001875/2010-81 and 08012.001879/2010-60 [acquisition by Votorantim Cimentos S.A.

  • Cimpor-Cimentos De Portugal, Sgps, S.A
    MATERIAL INFORMATION CIMPOR - Cimentos de Portugal, SGPS, S.A. (CIMPOR), informs that its subsidiary Cimpor Chengtong Cement Corporation, Limited (CCCC), signed today a binding agreement, subject to several conditions precedent, for the acquisition of 100% of the share capital of the Chinese company Liyang Dongfang Cement Co. (Liyang). Liyang, incorporated in the end of 2003, owns a clinker production line with a capacity of 900.000 tons per year, located near the city of Changzhou, in the Province of Jiangsu. In 2007, Liyang operated at its full capacity, reaching a turnover close to EUR 11 million. Liyang’s natural market covers the cities of Changzhou, Wuxi and Suzhou, in one of the most developed areas of the Yangtze delta. With this investment and the completion, during next year, of the projects under construction – a new integrated plant (Shanting) and two new grinding mills (Huaian and Suqian) – Cimpor Chengtong will increase to more than 6 million tons its annual cement production capacity with own clinker. The agreed sale price for this transaction is of only CNY 210 million (around EUR 25 million) to be adjusted on the closing of the acquisition according to the net profit of Liyang in the current year. That value corresponds to an asset valuation of around EUR 31 per ton of clinker production installed capacity, which is an attractive multiple taking into consideration other acquisitions in the cement sector, even in emerging markets. Operating in Portugal, Spain, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Turkey, Brazil, Mozambique, South Africa, Cape Verde, Peru, India and China, CIMPOR Group increases with this acquisition its position in a market which not only is the biggest worldwide but that even so shows an attractive growth prospects.

Relatório Actualizado do Conselho de Administração da CIMPOR sobre a oportunidade e as condições da Oferta da CSN 3 de Fevereiro de 2010 Sede: Rua Alexandre Herculano, número 35, Lisboa Capital Social: € 672.000.000,00 Pessoa Colectiva número 500 722 900; registada na Conservatória de Registo Comercial de Lisboa sob o mesmo número Page 2/76 Mensagem aos Accionistas da CIMPOR No passado dia 18 de Dezembro, a CSN anunciou uma oferta pública de aquisição sobre a CIMPOR, cujos projectos de prospecto e de anúncio de lançamento recebemos a 30 de Dezembro. Tendo procedido cuidadosamente à sua análise, a CIMPOR publicou um Relatório com a opinião do Conselho de Administração sobre os termos e condições da Oferta, incluindo outras considerações relevantes sobre aqueles documentos e sobre o processo. No passado dia 27 de Janeiro, a Oferta foi registada pela CMVM e a CSN divulgou o respectivo anúncio de lançamento e prospecto, mantendo o seu preço inicial. Este relatório é uma actualização da versão publicada a 7 de Janeiro de 2010, considerando as alterações introduzidas pela CSN nos documentos da Oferta. O Conselho de Administração da CIMPOR reitera que a Oferta é hostil porque oportunística, irrelevante e perturbadora da actividade da Empresa, mantendo o seu entendimento de que: A Oferta subavalia significativamente a Empresa; A Oferta não prossegue o melhor interesse dos seus Accionistas e stakeholders; e A CSN não oferece um prémio aos Accionistas da CIMPOR. Apesar da introdução no prospecto de referências genéricas aos seus planos estratégicos para a CIMPOR, no sentido de “manter uma linha geral de continuidade na gestão e incremento das actividades” da Empresa, a CSN continua a não apresentar garantias de que cumprirá esta sua “intenção” nem de que trará valor para a CIMPOR, enquanto projecto industrial português com uma forte presença internacional.

A special thanks to Maria for the constant motivation and suggestions in some crucial moments. Finally, to my supervisor for the availability and support in this Master’s Final Work. I Marisa Elias M&A: The Case of Cimpor and InterCement II Abstract The cement industry is characterized by large initial investments and also high production scales with a stable trend among the biggest international cement producers’. In June 2012, InterCement Austria Holding GmbH, controlled by the Brazilian Group Camargo Corrêa, acquired the Portuguese cement producer Cimpor with an offer price of 5,50€ per share. The group already had a participation on Cimpor capital – 33% - and this deal allowed the full control of Cimpor – 94%. The deal occurred in the upshot of the 2008 financial crisis when the European macroeconomic environment was still suffering some consequences, especially in the sovereign debt area of Portugal and Spain. The main purpose of this work is to analyze if the price paid per share in the deal was the fair one and the synergies created in the deal.
