ECONOMIC SCENARIOUS 2024-2026 2/2

Imports, Exports, and Order Intake are suffering vs. previous year

KEY COMPETITORS OVERVIEW 1/2

Wood

  • In Q1 '24, Sales declined by 14.1% year-on-year
  • Order intake increased by 7.0% year-on-year to €377.3M, due to a very large order worth around €90 million collected in Q4 '23 in China (furniture)

  • Outlook for FY2024:
    • Sales decline up to 15%
    • EBIT before extraordinary effects between 2.0% and 4.0% due to the previous year's low order intake
    • Free cash flow €50M

Note: Except for HOMAG, which was significantly affected by market weakness, all divisions of DURR were able to expand margins

  • The Wage Guarantee Fund ("Solidarietà") started in February 2024 and covers approximately 1,800 employees. It is valid until January 2025
  • Plants involved: Rimini, Coriano (RN), Verucchio (RN), Thiene (VI), Vigolzone (PC)

  • Declining turnover: from €290 million in 2019 to €219 million in 2023, with a projected €175 million for 2024 (-40%)
  • Experienced a progressive order portfolio erosion, indicating a contraction of approximately 50% in H1 2024 compared to the previous year
  • Strategic Rebalancing Efforts: The company is currently under the management of financial restructuring experts/advisors supporting management in implementing comprehensive restructuring plans, cost-cutting measures aimed at restoring financial health

THE GROUP - TREND ORDERS-SALES-BACKLOG

BIESSE perimeter

Revenues: € 333m vs € 418m PY (€ -85m; -20%)

Orders: € 300m vs € 343m PY (€ -43m; -13%)

Backlog: € 249m vs €315m PY (€ -66m; -21%)

The order intake has decreased compared to previous year because of:

  • Slowdown recorded in some markets of EU area
  • Difficulties in credit access and increase in interest rates which led to a consequential growth in orders blocked for financial reasons

Revenues result lower than previous year as a consequence of the dynamic of order intake.

THE GROUP-BRIDGE NET RESULTS H1 2023 VS H1 2024

GMM Group Effect on

Net result as of 30th June 2024 has been equal to € 3.9 mil., € (15.6) mil. compared with H1 2023.

A

Revenues lower compared with H1 2023 of about € 85 mil., generating a lower marginality equal to € 43.6 mil. However, industrial margin improves of 4.3% because of the mix effect and of minor devaluations for € 2.3 mil.

C OPEX lower due to savings in trade shows and in business trips, partially compensated with higher consultancy and IT costs. F Non-recurring: higher due to a capital gain recorded in H1 2023 Taxes: positive effect due to minor result of the period. Tax rate increased compared with H1 2023 (50% vs 28%). B E Labor costs lower of about 9.4 mil. due to higher turnover, "cassa integrazione" and lower variable rewards, notwithstanding higherinflation costs. D D&A lower of roughly € 3 mil. due to changes in capitalization policies, lower provisions and lower devaluations in R&D. G GMM: negative effect on net result of the H1 2024 due to amortization of PPA, non-recurring costs related to the acquisition and restructuring costs of € 2 mil.

The operative net working capital has increased of € 44.3 mil. compared with December 2023, mainly because of the variation of the consolidation perimeter as consequence of the acquisition of GMM Group. The remaining part of the effect is due to the decrease recorded in contract liabilities, equal to € 4.3 mil., influenced by the slowdown of order intake already started during 2023.

B

Net financial position is negative for € 7.4 mil. Compared with year-end 2023, the indicator decreases of € 100.4 mil., mainly because of the financial disbursement for the acquisition of GMM Group, the dynamics related to net working capital and the payment of dividends in May for a total amount of 3.8 million euros. Without the effects related to the application of IFRS16, NFP as of June 30th 2024, was positive for € 24.4 mil.
