DEFINITIONS
M&A TRANSACTIONS
TTR considers Iberian M&A deals to include any acquisition of shares, both of public and private companies headquartered in Spain or in Portugal, or of any other company worldwide by a Spanish or Portuguese entity.
For the purpose of this Handbook, the acquisition of assets or any other corporate acquisition that does not imply the acquisition of shares is not considered a M&A transaction. The acquisition of shares in a target company which configures a mere stock market transac-tion (namely, through a broker or any type of intermediary) is also not considered to be a M&A transaction.
PRIVATE EQUITY TRANSACTIONS
All investments or divestments carried out by private equity firms and/or funds under management are registered as private equity deals. When the purchase or sale of a specific target company is carried out through one of the private equity firms’/funds’ subsidiaries, the deal will only be considered a private equity deal if the subsidiary is controlled by the referred to private equity/fund.
VENTURE CAPITAL DEALS
Investments carried out by private funds which concentrate their activity on companies in a start up phase, including seed capital, early stage and expansion.
HIGH-END MARKET
Spain: All M&A deals which total deal value is in excess of EUR 500m. Portugal: All M&A deals which total deal value is in excess of EUR 250m.
MID-MARKET
Spain: All M&A deals which total deal value is in excess of EUR 100m. Portugal: All M&A deals which total deal value is in excess of EUR 15m.

High-end Market
In 2012, the high-end transactional market was slightly less active than in the previous year. The number of deals decreased. In fact, seven deals were closed with values superior to EUR 1.000m, compared to nine in 2011. Furthermore, we registered eight deals with values superior to EUR 500m, while in 2011, thirteen had been closed.
Similar to 2011, most deals in this segment had a cross-border component. Highlights include the divestment conducted by Endesa, a Spain-based electricity multinational, of Cono Sur Participaciones, a company that groups Endesa’s assets and stakes in Latin America, to Enersis (Chile), a company held by Endesa (60,62%). The deal value was USD 5.963m, some EUR 4.501,74m. Furthermore, Telefónica, through Telefónica International, sold a 4,56% stake in China Unicom to China United Network Communications, the group’s controlling company. The deal value was HKD 10.963m, some EUR 1.128,9m. Previously, Telefónica held a 9,6% stake in China Unicom, and with this sale this percentage will decrease to 5,01%.
The most active sector in this segment was the financial and insurance. Banco Financiero y de Ahorros, a merger of seven savings banks headed by Caja Madrid and Bancaja, submitted a conversion request to the Spanish Government for EUR 4.460m in preference shares of FROB (Fondo de Reestructuración Ordenada) a bank restructuring fund, into equity. With this deal, FROB enters, directly, Banco Financiero y de Ahorros’s share capital, and indirectly its subsidiary Bankia (fusión Caja Madrid y Bancaja) with 45% of the capital. As a result, the ministry of Economy recognizes the Government’s control over the bank.
On the other hand, Banco Popular launched a public takeover offer to acquire Banco Pastor, and merge the two banks. The deal value was EUR 1.362m. Banco Popular will pay through new issued shares to all Banco Pastor’s share-holders that participated in the takeover. In fact, Banco Popular offered 1,11 new shares for each share of Banco Pastor, and 30,9 shares for each of Banco Pastor's mandatory convertible bonds.

AdvisersIn this deal, Arcus Infrastructure Partners hired law firms Campos Ferreira, Sá Carneiro
Advogados and Linklaters as legal advisers. While José de Mello Holding hired Vieira de
Almeida Advogados as legal adviser; and Brisa hired law firm Sérvulo Advogados.
Tagus concluded a public takeover offer to acquire Brisa’s shares, which it did not yet hold, offering EUR 2,76 per share. Tagus is held by Portuguese group José de Mello Holding (55%) and UK-based Arcus Infrastructure Partners (45%), which jointly hold a 49,57% stake in Brisa.
With this offer, Tagus acquired a 35,23% stake in Brisa, a highway conces-sions company. In fact, Abertis sold 15,02% of the capital, and several private shareholders sold the remaining 20,21%, equivalent to 508,89 million shares. As a result Tagus will hold a 84,8% stake in Brisa’s share capital. The total deal value is EUR 1.404,54m.
Brisa is the largest highway concessions management company in Portugal. The company was founded in 1972 and also operates in other countries, such as United States and The Netherlands. As a result of this transaction, Brisa will leave the main Portuguese Stock Exchange index PSI-20.
At the beginning, Abertis voted against this takeover, but changed its decision later. Brisa’s market value at the time of this transaction was some EUR 1.500m, relatively far from EUR 6.300m, as of December 2007. Abertis, a Spain-based concessionary, estimates that the impact on cash flow of this deal will be EUR 312m, while the impact on its income statement will be EUR 97m.

In 2010, Telefónica and China Unicom signed an agreement through which the Chinese company acquired a 0,9% stake in Telefónica, and Telefónica in turn increased its stake from 5,4% to 8% in China Unicom. This transaction meant a disbursement of EUR 700m by each company.
In 2011, China Unicom and Telefónica strengthened the agreement signed in 2009. In fact, the new agreement was signed on 23 January 2011 and includes new cross investments between both companies valued at USD 500m (some EUR 375m). Once this deal is finalized, Telefónica will hold a 9,6% stake in China Unicom, while the Chinese company will hold a 1,37% stake in Telefónica.

500m
In 2012, we registered some twenty deals in Spain in this market segment, which includes deals superior to EUR 500m. This means a decrease in number of deals. Thirty deals were registered in 2011.
The five largest deals this year were detailed above, although several others were also relevant. These include various divestments by Spanish multinationals such as Ferrovial and Banco Santander.
In 2012, Ferrovial sold a 10,62% stake in FGP Topco, controlling company of Heathrow Airport Holdings (BAA), to Qatar Holding, a Arab Emirates-based investment fund. The deal value was EUR 607m. Furthermore, and part of this trans-action, Qatar Holding acquired a 9,38% stake in Heathrow Airport Holdings (BAA), held by Britannia Airport Partners (5,63%) and by GIC (3,75%). With this deal, Qatar Holding attains a 20% stake in Heathrow Airport Holdings (BAA). The deal value was EUR 1.144m.
With this deal, Ferrovial reduces its stake in Heathrow Airport Holdings (BAA) to 39,37%. This divestment is part of Ferrovial’s assets valorization strategy and investment diversification. Ferrovial will use these resources to improve its liquidity and gain flexibility for new investments in infrastructure projects and services
In this transaction, Britannia Airport Partners was advised by Fasken Martineau Dumoulin, while Ferrovial received legal advice from Freshfields.
Banco Santander also divested abroad. The bank sold Banco Santander Colombia to CorpBanca, a Chile-based bank. The deal value was USD 1.229m (approx. EUR 910m). With this deal, Banco Santander will receive profits valued at EUR 615m, to strengthen its financial statements.
In this deal, CorpBanca used its internal team as financial and legal advisers, as well as Posse, Herrera & Ruiz Abogados for legal advice. On the other hand, Banco Santander hired Uría Menéndez and Colombia-based Prieto & Carrizosa.
Highlights, in 2012, also include other financial entities. Caixabank (Criteria CaixaCorp) and Banca Cívica, a bank created through a merger of Caja Navarra, Cajasol, Caja Burgos and Caja Canarias, approved the terms for their merger. The deal value was EUR 977m. With this merger, a new banking group was created with EUR 342.618m under management.
In this deal, CaixaBank (Criteria CaixaCorp) hired AZ Capital as financial adviser.
As we can see, most of the high-end market deals have a cross-border component. Another relevant deal, in 2012, was the acquisition by OHL of an additional stake in Abertis. In fact, construction company ACS sold a 10,04% stake in Abertis to OHL and to Abertis itself. The deal value was EUR 875,3m. With
Other highlighted deals
this transaction OHL attains a 15% of the capital. On the other hand Abertis acquired a 5,3% of its own shares, to subsequently sell to OHL. In exchange for this 15% stake, OHL integrates in Abertis, OHL’s highway concessions in Brazil and Chile. This transaction was executed through a swap of Participes en Brasil, an investment vehicle owner of a 60% stake in OHL Brasil, in exchange for a 10% stake in Abertis. In addition, Abertis will assume EUR 504,1m of liabilities from OHL Concesiones’s Brazilian business Partícipes en Brasil, plus a payment of EUR 10,7m. After this deal, OHL will hold a 15% stake in Abertis. The swap value to acquire its concession assets in Chile was EUR 204m, which will be partially financed by local banks.
In this deal, Abertis hired Citigroup as financial advisers, and Freshfields as legal advisers, while ACS hired Mediobanca as financial advisers. On the other hand, OHL appointed Linklaters and Lefosse Advogados as legal advisers. In addition, Deloitte was appointed to conduct the due diligence.
Furthermore, Procter & Gamble acquired a 50% stake in Arbora & Ausonia. With this deal, Agrolimen, a group held by the Carulla family, exits the com-pany’s share capital, and Procter & Gamble attained 100%. The deal value was EUR 814m. Agrolimen’s divestment is part of its efforts to focus on its three core businesses: food group Gallina Blanca Star, catering group The Eat Out Group, and animal feed manufacturer Affinity Pet Care.
In this deal, Procter & Gamble hired Uría Menéndez and Garrigues as legal advisers. Agrolimen received legal advice from Cuatrecasas, Gonçalves Pereira. In addition, Inforpress was the communications consultant.

Private Equity
In 2012, we registered two private equity deals in the Spanish high-end market, which includes deals superior to EUR 500m. Venture capital fund Bain Capital acquired Atento, held by Telefónica, for EUR 1.051m. In addition, Santander Private Equity sold, jointly with Portugal-based Finpro, a 8,68% stake in Kemble Water to China Investment Corporation. The deal value was some EUR 600m.
These values are clearly inferior to those registered last year. In 2011, six deals were recorded totaling EUR 4.974,65m. The deal volume in 2012 is thus similar to 2010, where there was only one deal with value superior to EUR 500m.
Atento
Telefónica closed the sale of Atento to a Group of companies held by venture capital fund Bain Capital. The deal value was EUR 1.051m. With this deal Bain Capital enters the Spanish market. Payment includes a deferred installment of EUR 110m subject to the company’s future performance, and bank loan for another EUR 110m. This sale was initiated in March 2012 and received three offers from venture capital funds Bain Capital, Apollo Capital and Permira. None of these materialized, and Telefónica cancelled the process, in September 2012. In October 2012, Telefónica reopened the sale.
Atento is based in Madrid with offices in the United States, Colombia, Brasil, Uruguay, Argentina, Mexico, and others in Latin America, and Morocco. The company registered, in 2011, a turnover of EUR 1.082m (+8.4%) and EBITDA of EUR 101m.
With this divestment, Telefónica accelerates its divestment strategy of non-strategic assets, to cope with its debt of EUR 58.000m.
AdvisersIn this deal, Telefónica hired HSBC Bank and Morgan Stanley as financial advisers, and
Ramón y Cajal and KPMG Abogados as legal advisers. On the other hand, Bain Capital
appointed Goldman Sachs and Santander Global Banking & Markets as financial advisers,
and law firms Uría Menéndez, Kirkland & Ellis, Marval O´Farrel & Mairal, Souza, Cescon,
Barrieu & Flesch Advogados, Carey & Allende, Brigard & Urrutia Abogados, and González

Mid-market
In 2012, the Spanish mid-market transactional activity, which includes deals ranging between EUR 100m and EUR 500m, had a slight decrease compared to previous year, in as far as number of deals as well and also volume invested. In fact, forty deals were registered, 15 of these with values superior to EUR 250m.
Cross-border deals were significant in the mid-market, mainly due to Spanish companies’ divestments of their subsidiaries abroad. Grupo Alfonso Gallardo sold German companies Gallardo Sections y Stahlwerk Thüringen. Repsol sold Repsol Butano Chile, and Banesto sold Atuka to US-based venture capital fund Centerbridge Partners.
On the other hand, some Spanish companies showed interest in continuing their growth plans abroad, mainly towards emerging markets and Latin American countries. Highlights include the acquisition by Enagás of a 40% stake in Chile-based GNL Quintero, held by British Gas Group.
Spain is facing a difficult situation due to the economic crisis, which is influ-encing significantly the M&A market over the last few years. Nevertheless, this is also generating opportunities for international groups that chose to invest in Spain aiming to expand their businesses, due to the know-how and experience of Spanish teams. Highlights include the acquisition made by Air Liquide of Gasmedi, a Spain-based company that offers home respiratory therapies, held by Mercapital (75%) and by the Fierro family (25%). The deal value was EUR 330m. Furthermore, France-based group Elior acquired a 50% stake in Spain-based Áereas Iberoamericana and its controlling company Áreas, held by Emesa. With this deal Elior attained 100% of the capital. The deal value was EUR 150m.
Also noteworthy was the acquisition of ZIV Aplicaciones y Tecnología by India-based Crompton Greaves, through CG International. The Spanish company was held by its management teams (62,75%) and Dinamia Capital Privado, a company managed by N+1 Capital Privado (37,25%). The deal value was EUR 150m. From this amount, Dinamia will receive EUR 40,7m, which corresponds to 3,5 times the initial investment cost made in 2007.

With this divestment, Gupo Alfonso Gallardo strengthens its financial capacity, taking into account the debt reduction of some EUR 4885m. In addition the group will close negotiations with its creditors and continue to develop future projects.

The group also maintains its steel distributors Eusebio Calvo and Marceliano Martín with warehouses throughout Spain; in the cement sector, Cementos Balboa (Alconera, Badajoz); in the paper sector, Papresa (Guipúzcoa); as well as the sectors of media, and renewable energies.
In September 2011, Grupo Alfonso Gallardo agreed with Brazil-based CSN the sale of Cementos Balboa, Corrugados Azpeitia and Corrugados Lasao, and Germany-based Gallardo Sections and Stahlwerk Thüringen. Initially, this agreement was of EUR 543m, but the transaction did not materialize. A few months later the Spanish and Brazilian groups reached a new agreement in which the three Spanish plants were not included.

and Prieto y Cía Abogados as legal adviser. On the other hand, Empresas Lipigas hired
Philippi, Yrarrázaval, Pulido & Brunner as legal adviser.
Repsol Butano Chile
Repsol (former Repsol YPF), a Spain-based oil company, sold Repsol Butano Chile to a group of Chilean investors headed by Larraín Vial, a brokerage company, and Empresas Lipigas. The deal value was USD 540m. With this deal, Repsol continues its divestment strategy of non-strategic assets, and will receive a profit valued at USD 170m. In addition, Repsol will reduce its debt up to USD 317m. Repsol’s strategic plan for 2012-2016, estimates divestments of EUR 4.500m. Repsol has already reached EUR 1.850m, which includes Repsol Butano Chile’s sale.
The strategic plan includes the sale of Repsol Francia GLP to Totalgaz, a subsid-iary of French oil group Total. The deal value may be EUR 14,5m, approximately.
By mid-2012, Repsol (former Repsol YPF) faced a complicated situation, when the Argentinean Republic decided to expropriate a 51% stake in oil com-pany YPF, after declaring it was of public interest. The nationalized percentage involved most of Repsol’s stake in YPF. With this transaction, the Argentinean Government retained 51% of the capital, and the remaining 49% was transferred to ten hydrocarbon-producing provinces. As a result, the Argentinean Government will hold 26,01% of the capital and governors will hold 24,99%. Argentinean group Petersen, held by the Eskenazi family, will retain a 25% stake in YPF, while Repsol reduces its stake to 6,43% (previously held 57,43%).

AdvisersIn this deal, Abertis telecom hired Linklaters as legal adviser.
Eutelsat Communications
Abertis telecom, held by Abertis Infraestructuras, sold a 7% stake in France-based Eutelsat Communications, to fund China Investment Corporation (CIC). The deal value was EUR 385,2m.
Eutelsat Communications, registered a turnover of EUR 1.222,2m, this year ending on 30 June, which represents a 4,6% increase, with EBITDA of EUR 957,2m. It also generated a profit of EUR 237m, which represents an IRR of 13%. This transaction occurred after Abertis’ acquisition of a 16% stake in Eutelsat Communications, in a private placement offering to qualified investors. Abertis retaied a 8,53% stake in Eutelsat Communications.
In compliance with the terms agreed by Abertis in this recent placement, CIC agreed not to dispose of the acquired shares (“lock-up”) during the period that remains from the initial 6 months agreement.
With this sale, Abertis continues its assets reorganization process, and focuses on those projects in which it can take an industry leadership role and a greater financial consolidation.
On the other hand, on 28 December 2012, after receiving an approval from the Spanish Government, Abertis acquired through its subsidiary Abertis telecom, a 7,2% stake in Hispasat, held by Telefónica de Contenidos. The deal value was EUR 68m.
The agreement terms were modified after Hispasat’s second shareholder, Eutelsat Communications, exercised its option to acquire the stake Telefónica intended to sell Abertis. Both companies had announced, on 21 February 2012, an agreement over a 13,23% stake in Hispasat, for EUR 124m. Finally Abertis acquired a 7,2% of the capital and Eutelsat Communications acquired the remaining 6,03%.
With this deal, Abertis becomes Hispasat’s major shareholder; its stake increases from 33,37% to 40,6%.

Other highlighted deals
Enel does not consider Ireland a strategic market, and expects the sale to have a positive impact on its debt of some EUR 382m.
On the other hand, regarding Spanish companies investing abroad, high-lights include Enagás’ acquisition of a 40% stake in GNL Quintero, held by British Gas Group. The deal value was EUR 272m, paid in two equal installments. Enagás acquires a 20% stake for each installment of EUR 136m. The first stage was closed on 13 September 2012, after receiving the appropriate authorizations. The remaining 20% is still pending. After this first stage, GNL Quintero’s share capital is divided between ENAP, Endesa Chile, Metrogas y BG Group, with a 20% stake each. As for the second stage, it is estimated that Enagás will acquire a 40% stake jointly with another shareholder. In this manner, Enagás would hold 51% and the other partner would retain 49% of the capital.
Other highlighted transactions, in this market segment this year, include financial and insurance companies. CaixaBank acquired a 50% stake in Caja Burgos Vida, Compañía de Seguros de Vida, Caja Navarra Seguros y Banca Cívica, and Vida y Pensiones, held by Aegon España, a subsidiary of Dutch company Aegon. The deal value was EUR 190m. With this transaction, which means the end of current joint venture agreements, CaixaBank acquires the insurance business held by the Dutch group in Banca Cívica.

COUNTRY: SpainDanone España
Groupe Danone acquired 1.416.368 shares of its Spanish subsidiary held by two minority shareholders, increasing its stake in the company’s share capital from 57,05% to 65,62%. Danone España’s minority shareholders were families Portabella, Carasso, Botton and Fuster. In 2013, Groupe Danone announced that it intends to continue acquiring shares of Danone España.
These acquisitions were made through a cash payment of EUR 91,5m, plus the contribution of Danone treasury shares for external growth initiatives and representing 0.95% of Groupe Danone’s share capital. The two minority shareholders receiving the Danone España shares have undertaken to hold these shares for a minimum of three years. Furthermore, Groupe Danone will acquire over the next three months an equal number of shares, and will attain a 75% stake in Danone España. This transaction will have a positive impact on the group’s EUR 81m debt, since the options granted to the Spanish shareholders are recorded in Group accounts as financial debt.

Since 2010, several factories were closed and numerous companies have filed for bankruptcy or were forced to sell their assets to remain afloat. Highlights, in 2012, include the acquisition of Seda Solubles, a Spain-based coffee pro-cessing company and other soluble products, currently facing bankruptcy, by Olam Internantional, an Asian multinational that supplies agricultural products and food ingredients. The deal value was EUR 38,1m, and includes maintain-ing most of the 324 current employees, spread across factories in Palencia and Villamuriel de Cerrato. Furthermore, Singapur intends to invest some EUR 5,3m during the next two years to review and maintain its assets.

Privatizations 2012 Privatizations
One of the most relevant aspects of the Portuguese transactional market, in 2012, was the intense privatization activity. This is associated with troika’s impositions given the serious financial and budgetary situation of the country, which has influenced dramatically the Portuguese corporate structure.
Highlights, this year, include ANA - Aeroportos de Portugal, which was sold to VINCI Concessions, a France-based company, for EUR 3.080m; Eliminated from ANA’s privatization race were consortium Atlantic (constituted by Fraport, a Germany-based company that manages Frankfurt airport, and Industry Funds Management - IFM, an Australia-based investment fund); con-sortium EAMA (constituted by Corporación América, an Argentina-based airport investment company, Sonae Sierra, group Auto-Sueco, Uruguayan company Credicor, Mexico-based Grupo Tradeco and Empark, and Brazilian company Engevix). Among other candidates were consortium Zürich Airport (constituted by Swiss airport management company Flughafen Zürich, which manages Zurich airport, US-based company Global Infrastructures Partners - GIP, Brazilian company CCR, and private shareholdes); and finally a consortium constituted by Portuguese construction group Mota-Engil, Colombian company Odinsa, CSS Constructores, Marval, Construcciones El Cóndor and Termotécnica, as well as Spanish group Isolux Corsán and Dutch company Multi Corporation.
Apart from these, other privatizations occurred: REN - Redes Energéticas Nacionais, which was acquired by State Grid Corporation of China - SGCC y Oman Oil Company, for EUR 592,21m; and BPN Gestão de Activos that was acquired by Patris Investimentos, for EUR 3,20m. Several other privatizations were announced in 2012 and should be completed during 2013; EGF (Águas de Portugal), and Estaleiros Navais de Viana do Castelo - ENVC.

In 2012, the Portuguese high-end market, which includes deals that exceed EUR 250m, registered an increase in number of deals as well as invested volume compared to 2011. We registered nine deals in this segment, compared to seven in 2011, and a significantly greater deal volume.
One fundamental aspect, recurrent in most deals in this segment, was the cross-border component, primarily with foreign-based acquirers investing in Portugal. Galp Energia, a Portugal-based company, sold a 30% stake in Petrogal Brasil to Sinopec, a China-based petrochemical corporation.
The most dynamic sectors were the energy, and specifically the oil and gas subsector. Caixa Geral de Depósitos and Italian company Eni sold a 13% stake in Galp Energia, for EUR 1.400m. In the real estate and construction sector, highlights include the construction (materials and machinery) subsector, with the takeover offer to acquire Cimpor, a Portugal-based cement manufacturer. The offer was conducted by Brazilian group Camargo Corrêa through its subsidiary Intercement, at a price of EUR 5,5 per share, to integrate its South American and Angolan cement operations and assets into Cimpor. The sellers were Votorantim Cimentos (21,2%), Portuguese bank Millennium BCP (10%), CGD Caixa Geral de Depósitos (9,58%) and private shareholders (with a total of 21,12%).

COUNTRY: Brazil
The energy sector was particularly active in this segment, specifically the oil and gas subsector, which registered some of the largest deals in 2012.
Highlights include the sale by Portuguese company Galp Energia of a 30% stake in Petrogal Brasil to Sinopec, a China-based petrochemical group. The deal value was EUR 3.599,01m and paid with new shares of Petrogal Brasil.
The capital increase was valued at USD 4,800bn. Additionally, Sinopec will grant a loan of approximately USD 390m to Petrogal Brasil, which will be used to reimburse 30% of loans granted by Galp Energia, totaling USD 1.300bn.
With this deal, Galp Energia will hold a 70% stake in Petrogal Brasil, while the Chinese group will retain 30%.
Galp Energia has an exploration and production portfolio in Brazil, which includes shares in 21 oil projects in seven basins.
On the other hand, Sinopec is the largest Chinese producer of oil and petro-chemical products and the second largest in the world. In 2010, it produced 298 million barrels, and a significant quantity of natural gas.
This was a fundamental deal to balance Galp Energia’s financial statements, and to finance its immediate investment needs; undoubtedly in oil explorations in Brazil.

COUNTRY: MozambiqueHCB - Hidroeléctrica de Cahora Bassa
The Portuguese Government, through Parpública, concluded the sale of a 15% stake in HCB - Hidroeléctrica de Cahora Bassa, a Mozambique-based hydro power plant. The deal value was EUR 74m.
REN - Redes Energéticas Nacionais, a Portugal-based electric company, acquired a 7,5% stake in HCB’s share capital for EUR 38,4m, while the Mozambique Government retains the same stake percentage.
In 2006, the Portuguese Government and the Mozambique Government signed a transfer of ownership agreement over HCB, under which 85% of the shares were trans-ferred to Mozambique, as well as its management. The Portuguese Government’s stake was thus limited to a 15% in HCB - Hidroeléctrica de Cahora Bassa.
In June 2011, the Portuguese Government, through Parpública, rated its stake in the hydro power plant at EUR 77,50m, with accumulated losses of EUR 62,7m, of which some EUR 22,50m corresponded to 2011.

The smaller market, which includes deals with values inferior to EUR 15m, is usually the segment that registers the greatest number of deals. In 2012, the crisis influenced particularly this segment, which recorded a decrease in number of deals as well as volume invested compared to previous year.
Highlights included the financial sector, as in 2011. The cross-border deals were also noteworthy, but not as significant as in the high-end and mid-market segments. Another important aspect this year was that no private equity deals were registered in this segment, compared to twelve in 2011. This reflects the difficult economic situation influencing the Portuguese transactional market.
Regarding the largest deals in the financial sector, it was noteworthy Montepio’s acquisition of a 50% stake in Finibanco Vida, held by Mapfre Seguros Gerais. The deal value was EUR 13,5m.
Furthermore, Patris Investimentos acquired BPN Gestão de Activos, held by Participadas (one of the Portuguese Government’s investment vehicles), for EUR 3,2m. Some months later, BPN Gestão de Activos announced the sale of Centro Hospitalar de S. Francisco to Sanfil - Casa de Saúde de Santa Filomena, a healthcare services company, which includes permanent care services, general practice and outpatient specialties, as well as complementary diagnostic services, through its healthy unit in Coimbra.

In 2012, Spanish banks continue to suffer with the critical economic cri-sis. Financial entities had to restructure their businesses through divest-ments and strategic acquisitions. The intervention in Bankia (merger of Caja Madrid and Bancaja), Caixacatalunya, Novagalicia and Banco de Valencia by the government, and the European Union’s financial support to Spanish banks, enforced readjustments to their financial statements. On the other hand, Sareb (Sociedad de Gestión de Activos Procedentes de la Reestructuración Bancaria), an assets management company brought about by bank restructur-ing, was created. It enables some companies to improve their risk exposure by grouping toxic property assets.
In this environment, the financial transactional market was particularly dynamic in Spain, with some of the year’s largest deals. Various Spanish companies were forced to sell subsidiaries, while others chose to invest abroad for better conditions.
This year’s largest deal was carried out by FROB (Fondo de Reestruc - turación Ordenada Bancaria), a bank restructuring fund, which acquired a 45% stake in Bankia (merger between Caja Madrid and Bancaja). The deal value was EUR 4.460m. Furthermore, Banco Popular launched a takeover offer to acquire Banco Pastor, merging both entities. The deal value was EUR 1.362m, which Banco Popular will finance with newly issued shares distributed among all Banco Pastor’s shareholders who took part in this takeover. On the other hand, Banco Santander sold its subsidiary Banco Santander Colombia to CorpBanca, a Chile-based bank, for approximately EUR 910m.
Banks and Savings banks
Savings banks
In 2012, Spanish savings banks continued to make strategic transactions to reorganize their
businesses, with several mergers. BBK, Kutxa and Caja Vital carried out a merger to create
a bank that offers financial services to all types of clients, not only to individuals, which was
the banks’ customary activity. In addition, Cajamar, a bank based in Almeria, and Valencia-
based bank Ruralcaja, the first two savings banks in Spain, closed a merger and created a
new entity Cajas Rurales Unidas. Their joint assets are valued at EUR 38,000m, with some
3,3 million clients. Furthermore, Caixa Rural Sant Fortunat de Castelldans (Lleida) merged
with savings banks: Caja de Burgos, Caja de Segovia and Caja de Fuentepelayo (Segovia);
which had all merged, in 2010, under the umbrella of Ruralvía.

The bank merged with its subsidiary Banesto, which will generate synergies of EUR 520m by the third year. In addition, costs will be reducing by integrating both companies’ central services and by closing some offices. In 2012, Banco Santander also made some divestments abroad improving its cash flow and liquidity. The bank sold Banco Santander Colombia to Chilean bank CorpBanca, for approximately EUR 910m. And, it sold a 8,68% stake in Kemple Water, held through its fund Santander Private Equity, jointly with Portuguese company Finpro. The deal value was EUR 600m.

In 2012, the private equity sector transactional activity decreased significantly, with respect to previous year. The total deal volume was EUR 2.500m, compared with EUR 3.050m in 2011. Only two transactions were registered with a deal vol-ume above EUR 500m, mainly due to limited access to new loans and the need for firms to stabilize their subsidiaries and improve cash flow. In 2011, seven deals were registered in the high-end market. Atento, a Spain-based company, was acquired by US-based fund Bain Capital, for EUR 1.051m.
In the mid-market, the transactional activity was not particularly active either. 11 transactions were registered this year; half the number of deals recorded in 2011. Highlights include several deals involving venture capital funds that focus on the mid-market. The total percentage of deals this sector was in excess of 60%. Some of the most active firms were Nauta Capital, Caixa Capital Risc, Inveready y Cabiedes & Partners. Moreover, several divestments were carried out by private equity firms, including 3i Group, Mercapital, and Investindustrial, among others.

Source: www.TTRecord.com
Atento’s sale was initiated in March 2012; Telefónica decided to sell its call center operator in order to restructure its debt. Initially, Telefónica received three offers from private equity firms: Bain Capital, Apollo and Permira, but these did not materialize. Telefónica cancelled the sale at the beginning of September 2012.
Atento is based in Madrid with offices in the United States, Colombia, Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, and Mexico among other Latin American countries, and Morocco. The company employs 152,000 workers. In 2011, it registered a turnover of EUR 1.082m (+8,4%), and EBITDA of EUR 101m.
With this deal, Bain Capital continues its growth strategy in the call center segment, since it invested in Genpact, the world’s largest call center operator, just three months before. In addition, Bain Capital acquired Bellystems24 in 2009, the largest call center in Japan. The firm intends to continue its strategy and possibly make new investments in Spain.
Santander Private Equity
Santander Private Equity was founded in 2003 with the name Santander Capital, as an investment management firm of infrastructure and unlisted securities. In 2006, Santander Private Equity I was launched, to focus on investments in the largest funds of unlisted companies across the globe, aiming to reach an annual return on investment of no less than 20%. Nevertheless, Banco Santander closed this first fund, which had a conservative profile and sectorial growth orienta-tion. It had some 400 investors and a EUR 132m in equity, which was below their expectations. Subsequently, the bank create Santander Private Equity II, a fund of funds that would bring continuity to Santander Private Equity I, but it was closed ahead of time, in September 2008, due to lack of investors’ interest.
In 2012, Santander Private Equity and Portuguese investment company Finpro sold a 8,68% stake, held jointly, in Kemble Water to China Investment Corporation. The deal value was EUR 600m.
This was the first investment made by a Chinese group in Europe. The deal was executed after a trip to China by the British authorities, with the objective of showing UK’s strengths.

2012 was a critical year for the Portuguese financial market. Capital markets (both equity and debt) were severely affected and investments overall declined. The impositions on Portuguese banks, arising from the agreement between the Portuguese Government and the Troika (composed by IMF, European Central Bank, and European Commission), is to increase their solvency ratio and prof-itability index. These regulations had a negative impact on companies and individuals generally, since access to credit has been made extremely hard; as a result, it was a slower transactional year.

Spanish Target - Portuguese buyer
In 2012, Portuguese investment in Spain decreased compared to the previous year. The main reason was the economic contraction and difficult conditions for accessing credit, which influenced significantly the Portuguese transactional market.
This year, four deals were registered compared to five in 2011. The industry sector registered the largest number of deals. While in 2011 the most active sector was services and distribution.
Highlights include the acquisition by Sogrape Vinhos, a Portugal-based wine producer, of Bodegas LAN, a Spain-based wine maker located in La Rioja, held by private equity fund Mercapital (sold 85%) and private shareholders (sold 15%). The deal value was not disclosed, but it is known to be some EUR 50m. Bodegas LAN specializes in high-quality wines with origin in La Rioja, Rías Bajas, Rueda and Ribera del Duero. The winery was founded in 1972 in Rioja Alta, and has been included in Wine Spectator's Top 100 list twice.
Furthermore, Portugal-based Corticeira Amorim, through its subsidiary Amorim & Irmãos, acquired a 90,91% stake in Spain-based Trefinos, for EUR 15,1m. Trefinos was founded in 1916 and specializes in the production and sale of corks for champagne and sparkling wines. The company is located in Gerona (Catalunya), with distributors in France, Italy and the United States.
On the other hand, Sovena, a Portugal-based olive oil manufacturer, inves-ted in Moltuandújar, a Spain-based created recently, which groups Andújar factory’s assets previously held by Deoleo (50%), former SOS Corporación Alimentaria. The deal value was some EUR 4,5m, which indicates appraising Moltuandújar in EUR 9m. With this deal, Deoleo (former SOS Corporación Alimentaria) and Sovena will transform Moltuandújar in a joint venture aiming to optimize resources and improve production efficiency to adapt structures and processes and insure viability of the factory and its staff.
Noteworthy in the technology sector was the capital increase conducted by KDOF, a technology company based in Madrid, subscribed by venture capital fund Caixa Capital, through its investment vehicle Caixa Capital TIC, and Bullnet Capital, through Bullnet Capital II. Both companies acquired a mino-rity stake in KDPOF’s share capital. With this deal, KDOF aims to accelerate its growth.

Portuguese Target - Spanish buyer
Six deals were registered, in 2012, with Portuguese target and Spanish buyer, exactly the same as in 2011. Portugal is facing financial crisis and the markets instability. This might explain the tendency to sell assets, which some Spanish companies have benefited from.
Highlights include the acquisition by Spain-based group Damm of beer manu-facturer Tagus and its bottling assets held by Sumol+Compal, for EUR 2,6m. The two companies also signed a distribution agreement for the Portuguese market.
In fact, Sumol+Compal, a leading distributor of non-alcoholic drinks in Portugal, will distribute Estrella Damm, Tagus and Damm’s specialty beers for the next five years in Portugal. Damm is a food distribution group founded in 1876. The group owns 7 factories and has a staff of 2.900 employees. In 2011, Damm acquired Cacaolat, jointly with Cobega, and in January 2012 increased its stake in Rodilla to 76% of the capital.
Also noteworthy was the acquisition by Grupo Nortempo, a Spain-based human resources company, of a 20% stake in Geserfor, a Portugal-based company with the same line of business. With this deal, Grupo Nortempo aims to strengthen its services globally.
Furthermore, Europac acquired a 11,9% stake in Floresta Atlântica, a Portugal-based forestry company that manages a total of 5.000 hectares of forest.
France-based Groupe CAT, through its Spanish subsidiary Grupo CAT Península Ibérica, acquired Grupo Toquero’s transport division, constituted by Portugal-based Autotrans Express, France-based Toquero France and Spain-based Toquero Express. With this deal, Groupe CAT will hold three companies, which in 2011 registered revenues of EUR 35m, and will own a fleet in excess of 500 trucks.
On the other hand, GetApp.com, a Spain-based technology company and one of the largest retailers of technology apps for gadgets, acquired Tarpipe, a company that focuses on cloud apps development. Tarpipe enables users to streamline their posts to various social networks and save time when updating their different social media accounts.
Finally, Spain-based food company Grupo Hermi acquired Centro de Abate de Coelhos – Joaquim Jesus Ramos, a Portugal-based company with 20 years of experience in breeding rabbits for meat. The deal value was not disclosed.
