Half Year Results H1 2015

Good project execution during the first half year 2015, allowing the Business Units to generate

an EBITDA higher than during the first six months of 2014, except the PHE BU, which

continues its turnaround and which negatively impacts the H1 2015 results.

Commercial activities during H1 2015:

Backlog is at a very good level of EUR 764 million, slightly lower than the backlog as of 30

June 2014 (EUR 793 million), because of the good completion made on major projects. The

level of new order bookings is satisfactory despite the delay taken by customers to finalize some

major contracts, whereas the comparable previous half years had seen significant new bookings.

Our management is confident for the remainder of the year.

Our development in Africa, in the Middle-East and in Asia in general is promising.

The level of new order bookings for the Process Heat Exchangers BU (PHE) is encouraging.

H1 2015 EBITDA amounting to EUR 9.6 million

EBITDA is slightly below H1 2014 EBITDA because of the still negative contribution of the

Process Heat Exchangers BU and some non-recurring costs. Excluding this BU, the EBITDA of

the other BUs increased by 26%, from EUR 13.5 million to EUR 17.0 million.

The performance of the Process Heat Exchangers BU is encouraging, even though it was

penalized by effects from the past and by some non-recurring items (normalized operating profit

of EUR -1.1 million).

All BUs have seen a significant improvement in the quality of execution, with improved margins

for some of them.

The net result is negative, because of non-recurring items like restructuring costs, write-down

on some non-trade receivables of the PHE BU and the taxes in the US.

Strategic partnership: Esindus

Sopal International SA, majority shareholder of Hamon & Cie (International), will bring to the

latter the 38.89% stake it holds in the Spanish company Esindus in exchange of Hamon shares.

This contribution of Esindus presents a strategic, economic and industrial interest for Hamon,

which will increase its capital accordingly – see note 5.

Net working capital

Net working capital and net financial debt increase due to higher level of on-site activities

(ReACT TM, plant Vogtle, …), to delays of payment of some trade receivables and to customers

having delayed the final acceptance of some major projects. This will be tackled by the

reinforcement of equity – see note 5.

Interim dividend

No interim dividend.

Prospects

In view of the general economic environment, Hamon does not release any guidance on its future results.

I. INTERIM CONSOLIDATED MANAGEMENT REPORT

1. Commercial activities

GROUP (MEUR) H1 2015 H1 2014

Bookings 247,6 343,9

Backlog 763,6 793,5

During the first half year 2015, the Group booked new orders amounting to EUR 248 million, lower

than those of H1 2014 because of some late decision taking by customers and of the lack of signature

of big orders during the first six months of 2015 (no control on the timing of negotiations).

Emerging countries represented around 60% of new order bookings in H1 2015, thanks to important

new orders in Latina America and in the Middle East.

The Group is confident to book important new orders in H2 2015 and to reach a level of new order

bookings comparable to the one of 2014.

Backlog, at EUR 764 million, remained very strong and will allow a sustained level of activity during

the coming quarters.

The abovementioned new order booking and backlog figures exclude intersegment activities.

2. Consolidated income statement

Revenue remained stable compared to H1 2014, but was lower than our forecast, due to delays

encountered by some customers on sites.

The gross profit margin was comparable to last year (14%).

H1 2015 EBITDA is in line with the H1 2014 results, despite the negative contribution of the Process

Heat Exchangers BU, which carries on its in-depth transition towards a profitable business model.

Excluding this BU, the H1 2015 EBITDA of the other BUs would have amounted to EUR 17.0 million

versus EUR 13.5 for H1 2014 (+26%).

EBIT is impacted by the restructuring costs of the Process Heat Exchangers BU and by non-recurring

items (write-down on some non-trade receivables of the PHE BU).

Finance costs benefit from low short-term interest rates and from some foreign exchange gains on the

US dollar.

Detailed explanations on the activities of this half year are given in the overview by business unit.

3. Overview by business unit

a) Cooling Systems

Cooling System (MEUR) H1 2015 H1 2014

Bookings 134,1 178,2

Backlog 401,2 382,8

Revenue 108,1 133,5

EBITDA 5,3 3,4

EBITDA/Revenue 4,9% 2,6%

Average headcount 799 950

New orders booked by the Cooling Systems BU amounted to EUR 134 million during H1 2015.

Dry Cooling booked new orders in some new countries, whereas Wet Cooling also showed very strong

performances, with the signature of several contracts for new units or important revamping projects as

well as aftermarket service in Europe and in North America.

The BU is confident on the evolution of new order bookings during the second half year.

The backlog at end of June represented more than one year of activity.

Revenue, amounting to EUR 108 million, was lower than during H1 2014 because some contracts were

delayed by customers.

However, the global performances of this first half year are very good compared to those of H1 2014

(+56%), thanks mainly to the outstanding execution of our projects (both in Wet and Dry Cooling) and

to the strict management of our overheads costs thanks to increased synergies within the business unit.

b) Process Heat Exchangers

Process Heat Exchanger

(MEUR)H1 2015 H1 2014

Bookings 32,0 23,6

Backlog 62,9 36,4

Revenue 18,7 28,7

EBITDA -7,4 -2,8

EBITDA/Revenue -40,5% -9,6%

Average headcount 216 230

New order bookings at the end of June 2015 were higher than those of H1 2014, with a significant part

coming from the Middle East and South Korea.

The results remain too low and are still negatively impacted by some old contracts. Excluding the non-

recurring items, the normalized operating profit amounted to EUR -1.1 million, due to the lack of volume

and thus of profit recognition (only EUR 18 million revenue). An action plan has been launched to reorganize

the BU, to allocate resources in France, Belgium, Middle East and Korea better and to improve project

management as well as financial control.

c) Air Quality System

AQS (MEUR) H1 2015 H1 2014

Bookings 25,4 96,8

Backlog 157,6 199,3

Revenue 57,7 52,9

EBITDA 1,7 0,0

EBITDA/Revenue 2,9% 0,0%

Average headcount 373 299

Even though H1 2015 new order bookings (slightly above EUR 25 million) were lower than those of

H1 2014, the second quarter saw an increase of business opportunities as well as some new orders,

particularly in Africa and in Asia.

The BU management is confident for the second half year, especially due to the fact that, since end of

June 2015, new order intentions have been booked and other major decisions are expected very soon.

These evolutions will allow the 2015 new order bookings to reach the level of 2014.

Despite this temporary slowdown in terms of new order bookings during the first six months, EBITDA

improved significantly versus the same period of 2014. The backlog at the end of June still represented

more than one year of activity.

The Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) activities complete the traditional filtration activities with

contracts all around the world, in Asia, in Central America and in Europe. This diversification,

combined with the new business model put in place within the BU three years ago, shows its efficiency.

d) NAFTA

NAFTA (MEUR) H1 2015 H1 2014

Bookings 56,2 45,2

Backlog 141,9 191,6

Revenue 118,8 86,8

EBITDA 9,1 9,8

EBITDA/Revenue 7,7% 11,3%

Average headcount 335 321

The NAFTA Business Unit kept on showing strong results during this half year. After a slow beginning

of the year, the Business Unit activity bounced back with some important new orders booked during the

second quarter and in the end, new order bookings were higher than during H1 2014. Backlog decreased

versus one year ago, due to the progress made on the ReACT TM project, but it remains high despite the

lack of any new mega-project. The backlog is well diversified, with a broad range of products like

aftermarket service, Heat Recovery Steam Generators, Industrial boilers, Fabric filters, Electrostatic

precipitators, a ReACT TM unit and Recuperative heaters.

The BU still displays very strong results with a solid EBITDA, in line with the budgeted figure.

Management keeps on focusing on overhead cost control to ensure the future profitability and on

developing Delta’s activities abroad.

(1) Stock and net WIP is the sum of ‘Inventories’, ‘Amount due from customer for contract work’ & ‘Amount due to

customers for contract work’ (see p 11)

The increase of Group assets & liabilities is partly due to the increase of the US dollar exchange rate

versus the Euro.

Net debt increased due to a combination of events:

Delays to get customer payments in China and in the Process Heat Exchangers BU.

Delays in the final acceptance of some major projects of which the execution is completed.

On-site construction of some mega projects, which uses cash (Plant Vogtle, ReACT TM,

Kozienice).

Lower level of new order bookings in H1 2015 and hence of customer advance payments.

An expected receivable of EUR 12 million had been paid on July 6th, so just after the closing of the

books.

For the reasons explained in point 5, the long-term financial debts have been reclassified as short-term

financial debts.

5. Reinforcement of equity

Due to the debt increase, some ratios imposed by financing agreements were not respected as of 30 June

2015. The contract between the Group and its financial creditors foresee, in such a case, a possibility to

remedy through a reinforcement of the Group equity.

In this context the Hamon & Cie board of directors has proposed to proceed with a capital increase soon,

via (among others) a contribution in kind by Sopal International SA of the shares it holds in Esindus SA

(Spain) in exchange of Hamon shares.

6. Post Balance Sheet Events

There are no significant post balance sheet events to report.

6. Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements

a) Declaration of compliance

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with International

Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union and IAS 34- Interim Financial

Reporting.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the information required in

the yearly consolidated financial statements publication and must therefore be read together with the

2013 consolidated financial statements published in the 2013 Annual Report.

The publication of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements was approved by the

Board of Directors on 03 September 2015.

b) Principal accounting policies

The accounting policies used for the preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial

statements are consistant with those used in the 2014 consolidated financial statements with the

exception of the following new standards which are both in effect from annual periods beginning on or

after 1 January 2015:

IFRIC 21 - Levies

Adoption of these new standard did not cause any material impact on the consolidated interim financial

statements of the Group and did not require restatement of past consolidated interim financial statements

used for comparison purposes.

The Group has decided not to anticipate the application of revised or new standards and interpretations.

The application of these revised or new standards and interpretations should have no significant impact

on the consolidated financial statements.

c) Subsidiary companies

The consolidation scope has not been modified since 31 December 2014.

e) Information by segment

The Group is organized in five Business Units: Cooling Systems, Process Heat Exchangers, Air Quality

System and NAFTA. Additional Business Unit information is presented in the first part of this annual

report.

The results of a segment and its assets and liabilities include all the elements that are directly attributable

to it as well as the elements of the income, expenses, assets and liabilities that can reasonably be

allocated to a segment. Segment profit represents the profit earned by each segment after allocation of

central administration costs and directors’ salaries, share of profits of associates and investment

revenues, to the extent that they can be allocated to a segment, but before finance costs. This is the

measure regularly presented to the chief operating decision maker for the purposes of resources

allocation and assessment of segment performances.

The COMEX is the operational decision maker for all the Business Units.

Gross remuneration increases due to a combinaison of factors :

The appreciation of the US dollar vs Euro

The inflation in the emerging markets

The use of temporary staff in order to complete major projects (costs allocated to the projects)

The headcount decreases compared to 2014 due to the scope exit of the Indian affiliate Hamon Shriram

Currency IRS and the pre-financing interests on factoring operations without recourse.

The section “Other borrowing costs” includes in H1 2015 unrealized exchange gains of eur 4 030

thousand (unrealized exchange gains of eur 340 thousand in H1 2014) on long term intercompany loans

denominated in foreign currencies; partially offset in “Other finance costs” by a negative fair value on

an fx forward transaction entered in August 2014 for the purpose of hedging a part of those long term

intercompany loans.

Group bank borrowings as of 30 June 2015 (EUR 67,2 million) are mostly related to the syndicated

credit facility of July 2011. Please refer to our annual report 2014 for details of securities, undertakings

and financial covenants pertaining to this credit agreement.

The EUR 55 million senior bonds due in 2020 is reported under section “Other financial commitments”.

The bonds were issued at 100 per cent of the par on 30 January 2014 and will be redeemed at par on 30

January 2020. They bear interest at an annual rate of 5.5 per cent. The bonds are listed on the regulated

market of NYSE Euronext Brussels.

Certain covenants under our financing agreements may not technically be complied with on 30 June

2015. In such situation, the contractual provisions which bind the Group and its credit providers and

bondholders provide for the possibility of remediation through the strengthening of the Group's net

assets which is planned soon.

Under the current situation, the IFRS rules foresee that the total debt falling under the covenants must

be reclassified as short term debt (reclassification of EUR 112,5 million as of June 2015). In this context

the Hamon & Cie board of directors has proposed to proceed with a capital increase soon, via (among

others) a contribution in kind by Sopal International SA of the shares it holds in Esindus SA (Spain) in

exchange of Hamon shares.

The Belgian Treasury note program continues to be very successful and allows the Group to finance

itself at even better conditions than through the existing credit facility with our pool of banks.

Both the senior bonds and the Belgian Treasury notes give the Group an alternate and additional source

of funding.

Fair Value

During H1 2012, Hamon entered into various 5-year hedging transactions. Part of these transactions

took the form of Cross currency IRS. These are reviewed as two synthetic operations, a EURO IRS

paying a fixed leg and a cross currency swap with two fixed legs. The IRS’s pay fixed legs at 1,335%

against EURIBOR 3 months and are effective hedges against the interest rate fluctuations on existing

borrowings. The CCIRS fixed-to-fixed are hedging part of our net investment in the United States of

America.

The increase of long term interest rates during H1 2015 generated an reduction in the negative fair

values of the EURO IRSs which have been recognized in other comprehensive income.

Forward currency contracts used to hedge the transactional risks on currencies are accounted as if they

were held for trading. However, such forward currency contracts are only used to hedge existing

transactions and commitments and are therefore not speculative by nature.

The changes in fair values were directly recognized in the income statement in unrealized exchange

gains or losses.

In order to reflect the importance of data used for the valuation of fair values, the Group classifies this

valuation according to the following hierarchy:

Level 1: fair value measurements are derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets

for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: fair value measurements are derived from inputs, other than quoted prices included

within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability in question, either directly (i.e., as

prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices);

Level 3: fair value measurements are derived from valuation techniques that include inputs

related to the asset or liability not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

A part of the financial liabilities were evaluated at amortized cost, which is net of transaction costs.

Borrowings principally include bank debt for which the fair value is comparable to the value in the

accounts because this debt includes a variable rate. The senior pari passu bonds at fix rate 5.50 % are

quoted on Euronext Brussels under the ISIN BE0002210764 and symbol HAM20. There is thus a

market fair value which differs from the book value. The quotation as of 30 June 2015 was at 101,85

on the Thomson Reuters Eikon platform.

“Other payables” are mainly trade payables for which the fair value does not differ from the book value

due to its current nature.

Derivative financial assets and liabilities only include forward currency contracts, IRS and CCIRS. They

are included in this note on the asset and liability sides for their fair value depending whether they are

positive or negative.

As part of its business, the Group is often required to issue guarantees in favor of customers for the

reimbursement of advance payments, the correct execution of contracts or obligations of technical

guarantees. Some of these commitments require bank guarantees, insurance bonds or documentary

credits/SBLC import issued on the Group credit lines. The Group has also opened documentary credits

and SBLC Import in order to improve payment conditions with some of its suppliers.

The guarantees are issued amongst others under the syndicated credit line, a US Bonding line and

various local lines.

At 30 June 2015, the Group had ample available headroom under its committed guarantee lines.

The Group has also endorsed commitments relating to companies sold in 2005 (FBM), bankrupt (HRCI)

or associated companies (OHL and BFT) as follows:
