PRESS RELEASE

LAUNCH OF THE SHARE BUY-BACK PLAN AND TREASURY STOCK DISPOSAL AND DESIGNATION OF INTEGRAE SIM AS APPOINTED INTERMEDIARY

Bologna, 5 June 2023 – Marzocchi Pompe S.p.A. (EGM:MARP), a leading company in the design, production and marketing of high performance gear pumps and motors, announces that it has launched the plan for the share buy-back and disposal of its treasury shares in execution of the resolution of the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of 28 April 2023.

The duration of the authorisation to purchase is 18 months from the date of the Shareholders' resolution, while no time limits are set for the authorisation to dispose of any treasury shares purchased, in order to allow the Board of Directors maximum flexibility, also in terms of timing, to carry out the share disposal.

The authorisation to purchase and dispose of shares aims at allowing the Company to purchase and dispose of ordinary shares, in compliance with current EU and national regulations and accepted market practices recognised by Consob and, in particularly in order to:

  • i. carry out, through legally authorised intermediaries, transactions aimed at supporting the Company shares liquidity and/or stabilising their value, with a view to encouraging regular trading and prices and avoiding price fluctuations that are not in line with market trends;
  • ii. set up a treasury stock to sell, dispose of and/or use the Company treasury shares, in accordance with the strategic guidelines that the Company intends to pursue, or as part of extraordinary transactions, including, by way of example but not limited to, trading, exchanging, transferring or serving capital transactions or other corporate and/or financial transactions and/or other transactions of an extraordinary nature, such as, by way of example but not limited to, acquisitions, mergers, demergers, convertible bond issues, bonds, warrants, etc;
  • iii. engage in market operations with a view to medium- and long-term investment, including for the purpose of establishing long-term shareholdings or as part of transactions connected with current operations, or to reduce the average cost of capital of the Company or in any case to seize the opportunities to maximise the stock value that may arise from market trends;
  • iv. buy treasury shares from the beneficiaries of any stock option and/or stock grant plans approved by the relevant corporate bodies.

The authorization entails the right to purchase treasury shares, in one or more instalments, up to a maximum number that, taking into account the Marzocchi Pompe shares held from time to time in the portfolio of the Company and its subsidiaries, does not exceed a total of 2% of the Company fully subscribed and paid-up share capital pro tempore, or for a total maximum amount of Euro 350,000.00 (three hundred and fifty thousand) or any other maximum amount provided for by the law pro tempore in force. It should also be noted that the purchase transactions are not instrumental to the reduction of the share capital through the cancellation of the treasury shares purchased.

The share buy-back shall be carried out on the Euronext Growth Milan multilateral trading system and the unit purchase price shall be neither lower nor higher by more than 15% compared to the reference price recorded by Marzocchi Pompe share in the last Stock Exchange session prior to each individual transaction, in compliance with the terms and conditions established by the applicable laws and regulations and by the market practices in force from time to time. In particular:

  • shares may not be purchased at a price higher than the highest price between the price of the last independent transaction and the price of the highest current independent purchase offer on the trading venue where the purchase is made;
  • in terms of volumes, the daily purchase quantities shall not exceed 25% of the average daily trading volume of Marzocchi Pompe stock in the 20 trading days preceding the purchase dates.

In order to implement, in compliance with the established parameters, the aforementioned share buy-back plan and treasury stock disposal, the Company has appointed Integrae SIM S.p.A. as intermediary in charge of managing the operations. The intermediary will coordinate and carry out the purchases in full independence, until 28 October 2024, in compliance with contractually predefined parameters and criteria as well as with the constraints of the applicable regulations and the Shareholders' resolution of 28 April 2023.

The purchases will be carried out in compliance with the applicable provisions, so as to ensure the respect of the equal treatment of the Shareholders pursuant to Article 132 of the T.U.F. and 25-bis of the Euronext Growth Milan Issuers Regulation, as well as in accordance with the operating procedures set out in the organization and management regulations of Borsa Italiana S.p.A..
