MAIN CONSOLIDATED ECONOMIC-FINANCIAL DATA AS OF 31 DECEMBER 2023

The 2023 financial year confirms the growth capacity and consolidation of the competitive role of the Unidata Group on the national market, certifying the Company's ability to continue along a concrete strategic development path through the strengthening of the infrastructure and investments in R&D on the markets in which the Group operates.

Reported consolidated total revenues, equal to € 93.3 million, and pro forma consolidated total revenues, equal to € 100.7 million, increased by 82% and 96% respectively compared to 2022 (€ 51.3 million), thanks to the continuous and sustained organic growth of Unidata and above all due to the inclusion

UNIDATA S.p.A.

Viale A. G. Eiffel 100 Viale E. Jenner 33 Viale delle Dalie 5 [email protected]

Sede legale Roma Milano Bari [email protected]

in the scope of the recently acquired TWT Group. In particular, total revenues were driven by the organic growth of Unidata and the core revenues of the TWT Group, despite the announced divestment of lowmargin Voice Trading contracts, which resulted in a reduction in absolute value compared to the previous year equal to € 17 million approximately.

Reported production costs, equal to € 60.6 million, and pro forma production costs, equal to € 65.4 million, grew by 95% and 110% respectively compared to € 31.1 million in 2022. The increase in costs is mainly connected to the consolidation of the TWT Group and the substantial increase in costs for services linked to the construction of the fiber optic network infrastructure for Unifiber S.p.A., which in turn led to a significant increase in volumes related.

Reported personnel costs, equal to € 10.3 million, and pro forma personnel costs, equal to € 11.3 million, grew significantly compared to the 2022 figure (€ 4.0 million), due to the significant increase in the number of employees, especially relating to the acquisition of the TWT Group.

The reported EBITDA, equal to € 22.4 million, and the pro forma EBITDA, equal to € 24.1 million, increased respectively by approximately 38% and 48% compared to the 2022 result (€ 16.2 million).

The reported Adjusted EBITDA, calculated net of extraordinary costs relating to consultancy for the acquisition of the TWT Group and for the finalization of the Translisting equal to approximately € 2.0 million, is equal to approximately € 24.4 million (+50% compared to 2022) with an Adjusted EBITDA Margin reported of 26.1%. As regards the pro forma Adjusted EBITDA, it amounts to € 26.1 million (+61% compared to the same period in 2022) with an Adjusted EBITDA Marginpro forma of 25.9%.

The TWT Group's margins increased by approximately 11 percentage points compared to the previous year, also thanks to the disposal of the low-margin Voice Trading contracts, and the margins of the Parent Company Unidata also improved further.

During 2023, investments of approximately € 27.0 million were made, divided into € 3.6 million in intangible assets, € 14.0 million in tangible assets, mainly connected to the infrastructure area, and approximately € 9.4 million in financial fixed assets (investment in Unifiber S.p.A. and Unitirreno Holding S.p.A.).

Thereported Operating Profit (EBIT), equal to € 12.3 million, and the pro forma Operating Profit, equal to €13.7 million, recorded an increase of 14% and 28% respectively compared to 2022 (€ 10,7 million).

UNIDATA S.p.A.

The reported Adjusted EBIT, net of extraordinary costs, amounted to € 14.3 million (+33% compared to 2022) with an Adjusted EBIT Margin reported of 15.3%. The pro forma Adjusted EBIT is equal to € 15.7 million (+46% compared to 2022) with an Adjusted EBIT Margin pro forma of 15.6%.

The reported operating result, equal to a profit of € 6.7 million, decreased compared to the result recorded in 2022 (€ 7.5 million), due to the significant increase in financial charges due to the financing for the acquisition of the TWT Group. The pro forma operating result was instead equal to € 7.7 million, an increase compared to the 2022 figure.

Net Financial Debt for ESMA purposes is equal to € 47.9 million compared to € 9.6 million at 31 December 2022; the Net Financial Debt, for the purposes of calculating the financial covenants in place, is equal to € 46.7 million. The increase, compared to the previous year, is mainly linked to the loan stipulated for the acquisition of the TWT Group amounting to approximately € 40.0 million and to the contributions to the investees Unifiber and Unitirreno.

Net equity at 31 December 2023 was € 64.2 million compared to € 36.9 million at 31 December 2022.
