PERFORMANCE BY COUNTRY
Chile
The business in Chile remains solid and resilient, improving its SSS growth rates to 2Q16, reaching 3.8% YoY in Supermarkets – with increases in traffic- 6.7% in Department Stores and 2.2% in Home Improvement. Shopping Centers revenues grew 9.5%, driven by higher occupancy and the contract renewal at Costanera Center. Adjusted EBITDA in Chile rose 22.8% and Adjusted EBITDA margin improved by 120 bps to 8.5%, with progress in all businesses reflecting the Company’s sharper focus on profitability, strengthening of the value proposition and the implementation of efficiency plans. The exception was Shopping Centers as a result of the Tax Reform.
 
Argentina
Although the market continues to be challenging and consumption contracted in real terms, Argentina showed higher revenue growth versus the previous quarter, with SSS of 16.5% in Supermarkets and 21.3% in Home Improvement (14.9% and 16.5% in 2Q16, respectively). Shopping Center revenues increased by 25.5% in local currency due higher variable income (indexed to tenant`s sale) and higher occupancy. Financial Services revenues were up 71% driven by portfolio growth and higher commissions. Adjusted EBITDA in Argentina grew 3.5% in CLP, offsetting the effect of currency depreciation and Adjusted EBITDA margin improved 190 bps to 6.9%. Better results were achieved through the efficiency plans together with the headcount adjustment made in the previous year, partially offset by an increase in basic consumption rates and salary adjustments.
 
Peru
Supermarket revenues fell by 2.1% in local currency, due to a store closure, the sale of pharmacies chain and the remodeling of Wong La Planicie, partially offset by positive SSS of 0.6%, Department Stores revenues continue to grow at double digit rates in SSS (12.6%) demonstrating significant advances in brand recognition and store maturation. Shopping Center revenues grew 7.6% in local currency due to a higher occupancy rate and the Bank`s revenues increased 71.6% in local currency reflecting higher loan growth and business development. Adjusted EBITDA in Peru grew 18% in CLP and Adjusted EBITDA margin improved 160 bps to 8.2% as a result of the efficiency plans implemented, the improved performance at seven stores supermarkets that previously had negative EBITDA and lower rental costs.
 
Colombia
Supermarket revenues grew 2.3% in local currency, driven by a 3.5% SSS rise, partially offset by lower sales in Gas Stations and the sale of Pharmacies. Home Improvement increased SSS revenues by 7.6% due to a better product mix and, a successful pricing strategy, enabling expansion in adjusted EBITDA margin by 199 bps. Higher SG&A dilution and efficiency gains also contributed to performance. Adjusted EBITDA in Financial Services decreased 48% due to higher cost of funds and risk charges. Shopping Center revenues grew 10% in local currency, with Adjusted EBITDA margin up by 11 bps, driven by leases from pharmacies sold and an increase in occupancy. As a consequence adjusted EBITDA margin in Colombia improved 45 bps.
 
Brazil
Consumption in Brazil remains depressed, with year-on-year decreases in retail sales volume of 5.6% in July and 5.5% in August, according to IBGE figures. Cencosud’s revenues registered positive SSS (of 0.2%) for the first time in six quarters, and a 5.3% increase in SS tickets as a result of a promotional campaign implemented to counteract the contraction in consumption. Changes in pricing policy and mix of products also contributed to this performance. The Adjusted EBITDA margin remained positive in all operations except for Bretas and contracted to negative at a Country level, reflecting the promotional efforts during the quarter. Consumption is anticipated to start picking-up during 2017, which is also reflected in the Brazilian consumer confidence index, according to Focus Economics.

·  
Other operating income increased 42.5% mainly due to the higher revaluation of assets, driven by the lower discount rate in the region associated with a better country risk. The effect of the revaluation of assets net of deferred taxes is CLP 23,690 million and CLP 16,147 million in 3Q16 and 3Q16 respectively. In the 9 months to September CLP 82,123 million and CLP 41,148 in 2016 and 2015 respectively.

     Chile
·  
Revenues: grew 4.2%, mainly driven by the 3.8% increase in SSS. SSS performance resulted from improved traffic, both in Santa Isabel and Jumbo.
·  
Gross Margin: gross profit increased by 8.1% and the margin expanded by 92 bps, as a result of greater logistics efficiency, better negotiations with suppliers, change in sales mix and a lower inventory difference.
·  
Adjusted EBITDA: grew 6,5% and the margin expanded 20 bps YoY due to better gross margin and efficiency measures. In the case of Santa Isabel better performance related to store clusters and improved assortment of products.
 
Argentina
·  
Revenues: in Chilean pesos decreased 28.0% as a result of the devaluation of the Argentine peso with respect to CLP. By contrast, local currency revenues increased 19.0% YoY, due to double digit growth in SSS of 16.5% and net closing of one store YoY.
·  
Gross Margin: gross profit in Chilean pesos contracted 25.7% YoY and margin showed an expansion of 100 bps reflecting inflation on the sale price of products, compared to a historical selling cost, and better efficiencies with suppliers.
·  
Adjusted EBITDA: in Chilean pesos grew seven times while EBITDA margin expanded 253 bps. Similarly, local currency sales grew, driven by higher SG&A dilution due to the headcount adjustment performed in the same period of last year associated with the efficiency plan. All of this was partially offset by an increase in electric power consumption and credit card commissions.
 
    Brazil (Consolidated)
·  
Revenues: in Chilean pesos increased 3,3% as a result of positive SSS growth in local currency of 0.2%, following six negative quarters, partially offset by the net closing of thirteen stores YoY. The improvement in SSS resulted from the new promotional strategy implemented to offset the slowdown in consumption in the Country. In the case of Bretas, in spite of the lower SSS, traffic increased 0.2%; Gbarbosa recorded positive SSS with good performance in food and Prezunic scored negative SSS in part because of the effect generated by the difficulty with store access during the Olympic Games in the period. Mercantil Rodriguez continues with a solid double-digit positive SSS growth.
·  
Gross Margin: gross profit in Chilean pesos decreased 8.2% YoY and margin dropped 243 bps, mainly explained by more aggressive promotional activity, in response to market conditions. Prezunic and Bretas posted year-on-year declines in gross margin, while at Gbarbosa gross margin remained steady compared to the same period of the previous year.
·  
Adjusted EBITDA: in Chilean pesos adjusted EBITDA was negative, as a result of the decline in gross margin. In spite of the above, Prezunic reached positive EBITDA mainly due to strict expense control and in the case of Gbarbosa, EBITDA margin remains positive and stable after SG&A dilution during the period.
 
Peru
·  
Revenues: in local currency revenues fell 2.1% as a result of the closure of a store, the sale of pharmacies chain and the remodeling of Wong La Planicie, partially offset by positive SSS of 0.6%. In Chilean pesos, revenues decreased by 7.8% as a result of the depreciation of the Peruvian Sol with respect to CLP.
·  
Gross Margin: as a result of the devaluation of exchange rate, in Chilean pesos decreased by 1.4% and margin over sales expanded by 156 bps, due to lower promotional activity YoY and greater work in conjunction with suppliers, partially offset by a slight increase in shrinkage and inventory difference resulting from adjustments within the framework of the efficiency plan.
·  
Adjusted EBITDA: in local currency increased 15.2% and EBITDA margin expanded 127 bps, as a result of greater energy savings resulting from a change of supplier, improvement in the results of seven stores that previously had negative EBITDA and headcount reduction associated with the efficiency plan. In Chilean pesos, adjusted EBITDA increased 7.7% as a result of the currency depreciation against CLP.
 
Colombia
·  
Revenues: in local currency grew 2.3% mainly explained by SSS growth of 3.5%, partially offset by lower sales of Gas Stations and the sale of Pharmacies on November 4th of the previous year. SSS were driven by the greater consolidation of its private label and the value proposition in both quality and price to drive traffic, as well as adjustment in the product mix. Accordingly, the penetration of the Company’s loyalty program increased to more than 75% of sales. In Chilean pesos, revenues fell 4.9% as a result of the devaluation of the COP vs CLP YoY.
·  
Gross Margin: in Chilean Pesos increased 0.7% and the margin over sales expanded 57 bps due to a strengthening of the Jumbo and Metro brands, greater joint efficiencies driven by better coordination with suppliers and greater penetration of private labels.
·  
Adjusted EBITDA: in local currency adjusted EBITDA increased by 1.6% and the margin remained stable year on year. EBITDA growth is mainly due to the improvement in gross margin, partially offset by an increase in energy expenditure associated with an increase in tariffs.

     Chile:
·  
Revenues: increased 7.3% driven by SSS of 6.7%, better than the year-ago quarter and also compared to 2Q16, reflecting improved performance in perfumery and apparel. This was partially countered by lower hard goods sales.
·  
Gross Margin: up 7.3% YoY, driven by higher sales. Gross margin over sales remained stable compared to the previous year, showing a greater proportion of apparel sales, offset by greater inventory difference.
·  
Adjusted EBITDA: expanded by 10.8% and EBITDA margin increased by 14 bps, as a result of a higher SG&A dilution YoY associated to the efficiency plan, which was the third consecutive quarter of expenses over sales reduction. This was partially offset by an increase in the minimum wage and expenses associated with the opening of the new store in La Dehesa.
 
Peru:
·  
Revenues: up 8.4% year-on-year in CLP, reflecting double-digit SSS growth (12.6%) for the fourth consecutive quarter. This continuous increase of SSS is a consequence of the consolidation of the brand positioning and store maturity.
·  
Gross Margin: up 8.4% year on year as a result of sales growth and better inventory management.
·  
Adjusted EBITDA: the negative contribution decreased 12.3% YoY and the EBITDA margin improved 189 bps, as a result of the successful development and maturity of the operation.

        Chile
·  
Revenues: grew 9.5% year-on-year driven mainly by higher collections associated directly with increased sales by our tenants, renewals of contracts and an increase in average occupancy rate by 42 bps. During the quarter, higher revenues from parking lots and the collection of office leases at Costanera Center also contributed to the increase in revenues.
 
www.cencosud.com | 7
 
 
·  
Gross Margin: increased 5.9% and the margin over sales contracted by 314 bps YoY as a result of lower revenues from common expenses in 2015, where higher charges were made to tenants, in addition to higher costs for depreciation of Assets Available for Sale.
·  
Adjusted EBITDA: contracted by 5.9%, mainly due to the elimination of the payment benefit of real estate contributions as a credit towards income taxes after the tax reform2. This was partially offset by a decline in maintenance and advertising expenses.
 
Argentina
·  
Revenues: in local currency increased 25.5% YoY, due to a higher contribution from the variable portion of the rent, reflecting inflation and increased occupancy rate by 139 bps. In Chilean pesos, revenues fell 24.1% as a result of the devaluation of the Argentine peso vs CLP.
·  
Gross Margin: contracted by 145 bps as a result of higher utility costs, mainly energy and water, which, when settled with a two-month lag, leads to an increase in costs compared to the previous year. Adjustments in security salaries, cleaning and operations and higher municipal taxes also contributed to the margin contraction.
·  
Adjusted EBITDA: increased 8.8% in local currency and decreased 34.2% in Chilean pesos as a result of the currency devaluation against CLP. 3Q15 results benefitted from the reversal of a provision related to a land lease agreement, while 3Q16 was impacted by higher expenses reflecting market conditions.
 
Peru
·  
Revenues: grew 7.6% in local currency as a result of an increase in occupancy rate from 91.3% in 3Q15 to 94.3% in 3Q16. In Chilean pesos, revenues grew 1.4% as a result of the depreciation of the Peruvian Sol with respect to the Chilean peso YoY.
·  
Gross Margin: increased 6.1% and the margin over sales expanded 372 bps driven mainly by the increase in the common expenses charged to tenants which consists of a fixed charge.
·  
Adjusted EBITDA: increased 19.9% in local currency and the margin showed a 765 bps expansion explained by lower provisioned rental expenses compared to the previous year, partially offset by a slight increase in advertising expense and (outsourced) parking operation expenses.
 
Colombia
·  
Revenues: in local currency grew 10.0% driven by leasing income from pharmacies divested in December 2015 and an increase in the occupancy rate of 28.2% in 3Q15 to 39.0% in 3Q16. In Chilean pesos, revenues increased by 5.3% as a result of the average exchange rate depreciation YoY.
·  
Gross Margin: increased 6.0% in Chilean pesos and the margin expanded 65 bps primarily explained by savings associated with negotiation of new insurance policies.
·  
Adjusted EBITDA: in local currency adjusted EBITDA increased 10.1% and margin expanded 11 bps, reflecting higher SG&A dilution driven by lower contribution expenses, partially offset by a slight increase in maintenance and uncollectibles. In Chilean pesos adjusted EBITDA increased 5.5% as a result of the devaluation of the Colombian peso.

Argentina
In local currency revenues increased 71.6%, explained by the 67.1% growth of the portfolio and higher commissions. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by 128 bps as a result of the increase in business volume, partially offset by higher cost of funding and higher risk charges.
 
Perú
In local currency revenues rose 25.7% YoY as a result of the 32.4% increase in the loan portfolio, driven by higher sales volume in our own stores and third parties stores. Gross margin and adjusted EBITDA margin contracted slightly as a result of the increase in cost of funds and a higher risk charges associated with business growth.
 
Chile
Revenues fell 75.7% YoY mainly due to the lower business volume at Banco Paris. The EBITDA margin almost doubled explained by strong performance following the Joint Venture agreement with Scotiabank.
 
 
Colombia
Adjusted EBITDA declined in Chilean pesos reflecting higher costs of funding and an increase in risk, as well as the impact from the depreciation of the Colombian peso year-on-year.
 
 
Brazil
Profitability of the operation was reduced as a result of higher risk charges, mainly explained by the rise in unemployment of the population under Gbarbosa’s area of operation.

·  
Participation in profit of equity method associated decreased 15.0% mainly as a result of the improvement in profitability of the credit card Joint Venture in Chile, as a result of greater loan portfolio growth and cost reduction initiatives. This was offset by the sale of 33% of the stake in Mall Viña del Mar in 2Q16.
 
·  
Net Financial Costs rose 28.4% reflecting higher indebtedness of our subsidiaries in Argentina, Brazil, Peru and Colombia related to the operating financial and loan portfolio growth. Also explained by higher hedging positions from variable rate to fixed rate and a higher negative effect during the quarter of CLP 1,213 million of the mark to market of derivatives on its exchange rate composing, compared to the same period of previous year.
 
·  
The gain of the exchange rate variation reflects lower exposure to the USD in the Company`s non-hedged debt (as of September 2015, 31.4% of the total debt was denominated in USD after CCS vs. 17.1% in 3Q16). In line, in September 2015, the Chilean peso depreciated against the USD by 15.2%, by contrast in September 2016, the Chilean peso was appreciated by 7.3%. This was partially offset by a negative effect of CLP 2,091 million from the mark-to-market of derivatives on its interest rate composing with respect to the same period of the previous year.
 
·  
Loss from Indexation Units decreased by CLP 3,637 million as a result of lower variation from the UF during the quarter vs. the same period last year (0.66% in 3Q16 vs. 1.45% in 3Q15).

As of September 2016 total assets decreased CLP 112,597 million compared to December 31, 2015 due to declines of CLP 74,724 million in current assets and CLP 37,837 in non-recurrent assets.
 
The decrease in Current Assets is explained by the decrease of CLP 169,727 million in Other Financial Assets Current, and CLP 71,734 million in Cash and Cash Equivalents. This was partially offset by CLP 108,285 million in Inventory. The decrease in both Other Financial Assets Current and Cash and Commercial Accounts is explained by the seasonality of the business and the devaluation of the currencies; Argentine peso, Peruvian Sol and Colombian peso. The increase in Inventory is explained by the seasonality of the business to accommodate Christmas season. The reduction in non-current assets is explained by a decline of CLP 104,956 million in Other non-recurrent Financial Assets, after the lower value of Derivatives. The decline in Property, Plant and Equipment of CLP 101,077 million is explained by lower fixed assets in Chile, Argentina, Peru and Colombia, as a result of the currency depreciation in Brazil and Colombia. The increase in Deferred Tax Assets of CLP 99,781 million is explained by higher deferred taxes in Chile, Brazil and Colombia. In Argentina, Brazil and Peru is explained by the effect of the exchange rate. Additionally, Brazil is due to an increase in tax losses.
 
The decrease in Total liabilities of CLP 96,319 million resulted from CLP 128,405 decline in non-current liabilities, partially offset by an increase of CLP 32,086 million in current liabilities.
 
The rise in Current Financial Liabilities resulted from the increase of CLP 230,407 million in bank debt in Argentina, Brazil, Peru and Colombia. This was partially offset by a decrease of CLP 300,279 million in Trade Accounts Payable and Other Accounts Payable explained by the business seasonality. The reduction of Other Non-Current Financial Liabilities is explained by the increase in the dividend accrual by CLP 47,602 million. Current Tax Liabilities of CLP 43,214 million are explained by an increase of CLP 55,556 million in Chile.

Interest Rate Risk
As of September 30th, 2016, including the Cross Currency Swaps, 70% of the Company`s financial debt was at fixed interest rates, primarily short-term debt and bonds. Remaining debt percentage of debt was at variable interest rates. Of the variable-rate, 96.89% is indexed to local interest rates (either by its original terms or under derivative arrangements). These percentages include all the Cross Currency Swaps. The Company`s hedging policy also provides for the periodic review of exposure to exchange rate and interest rate risks.
 
Currency Hedges
In the countries where Cencosud operates, the majority of costs and revenues are denominated in local currencies. The majority of the Company`s debt is denominated in Chilean pesos. As of September 30th, 2016, roughly 67% of consolidated financial debt was denominated in US dollars; 76.74% of total financial debt was covered using Cross Currency Swaps or other Exchange Rate Hedges. The Company`s policy is to cover the risk caused by variations in exchange rate on the position of net payable liabilities in foreign currency using market instruments. Considering the effect of the Cross Currency Swaps, as of September 30th, 2016, the company`s exposure to the US dollar was 15.7% of the total debt.

Inventory turnover:
·  
Supermarkets increased their inventory turnover by 3.8 days. In Chile it increased slightly due to higher stock in preparation for the event On Fire and the change in labeling law. In Brazil, inventory turnover increased as a consequence of the decline in sales partially offset by the increase in sales of electronic goods in Bretas. In Colombia, higher inventory turnover reflects the focus on imported products that implied an increase in goods in transit year-on-year. In Argentina, inventory turnover was slightly reduced due to the exchange rate and the decline in sales. Peru showed a marginal improvement due to the exchange rate effect.
·  
In Home Improvement, inventory turnover improved by 7.5 days, as a result of the inflationary impact in Argentina (influenced by currency depreciation), partially offset by the anticipation of purchases in Chile and the entry of seasonal goods into Colombia.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded a negative cash flow of CLP 35,558 million compared to a positive cash flow of CLP 221,676 million for the same period of 2015. This is explained by the sale of the sale of the loan portfolio by CLP 179,458 million in 2015 that was accounted in Financial Services.

Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures to (Profit/Loss)
This earnings release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures, namely EBIT, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. These non-IFRS measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. EBIT represents profit attributable to controlling shareholders before net interest expense and income taxes, EBITDA represents EBIT plus depreciation and amortization expense, Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted to reflect items set forth in the table below. EBIT, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have important limitations as analytical tools. For example, neither EBIT, EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA reflect (a) our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (b) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (c) the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt; and (d) tax payments or distributions to our parent to make payments with respect to taxes attributable to us that represent a reduction in cash available to us. Although we consider the items excluded in the calculation of non-IFRS measures to be less relevant to evaluate our performance, some of these items may continue to take place and accordingly may reduce the cash available to us. We believe that the presentation of the non-IFRS measures described above is appropriate. However, these non-IFRS measures have important limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under IFRS. In addition, because other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, EBITDA may not be, and Adjusted EBITDA as presented in this report is not, comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of our profit (loss) attributable to controlling shareholders, the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, to EBITDA and to Adjusted EBITDA is set forth below:
