The Interim Report at 30 September 2022, which includes the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the Consolidated Statement of Income, the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and brief related Explanatory Notes, has been prepared in compliance with recognition and measurement criteria provided for by the IFRS endorsed by the European Union, and has been voluntarily made available to the public. Please refer to the Company's website (http://www.brembo.com/en/investors/calendar) for information about the content, timing and methods of additional periodic financial disclosures.
Reference is made to the 2021 Financial Statements for the relevant international accounting standards and criteria adopted by the Group when preparing the above-mentioned Financial Statements. The preparation of the Interim Report requires management to make estimates and assumptions that have an effect on the amounts of recognised revenues, costs, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the reporting date. Should in the future such estimates and assumptions, which are based upon the management's best assessment, diverge from actual circumstances, they will be modified accordingly during the period in which such circumstances change.
It should also be noted that certain measurement processes, particularly the most complex ones such as the determination of any impairment for non-current assets, are typically carried out in full only during preparation of the Annual Financial Statements, when all necessary information is available, unless impairment indicators require immediate analysis. Actuarial valuations necessary to determine employee benefits are typically performed during preparation of the Annual Financial Statements. This Interim Report has not been audited.
The Financial Statements at 30 September 2022 include the Financial Statements of the Parent Brembo S.p.A., and the Financial Statements of the companies that Brembo S.p.A. controls as per IFRS 10. Compared to 30 September 2021, the following corporate transactions impacting the Group consolidation area were performed:
on 4 November 2021, Brembo completed the acquisition of a 100% stake in the J.Juan Group, a Spanish company specialising in the development and production of motorbike braking systems. Founded in 1965, J.Juan is based in Gavà (Barcelona) and has three plants in Spain and one in China, manufacturing especially brake hoses, a strategic component for the braking system's safety that will complement the current range of Brembo products for motorbikes. The acquisition of J.Juan enables the Group to complete its range of solutions for the motorbike braking system and to expand its brand family for the growing motorbike sector. The total outlay for the transaction was €76.4 million, paid using available liquidity.
The Group's net sales in the first nine months of 2022 amounted to €2,728,224 thousand, with a 33.6% increase compared to the first nine months of 2021. On a like-for-like consolidation basis — thus excluding the contribution of the J.Juan Group from the results for 2022 — Group's sales grew by 29.8%.
The car applications sector, which accounted for 72.4% of the Group's sales, closed the first nine months of 2022 with a +33.3% increase compared to the same period of the previous year. Similarly, all other applications recorded a positive trend: applications for commercial vehicles closed at +20.4%, motorbike applications at +49.9% (+17.5% on a like-for-like consolidation basis), and racing applications at +28.3%.
At geographical level, and with specific reference to Europe, Germany rose by 35.2% compared to the first nine months of 2021. The other European countries also reported positive results, with Italy up by 14.1%, France by 17.8% and the United Kingdom by 0.6%. Sales rose by 53.0% in North America and by 60.4% in South America. In the Far East, China grew by 36.1% and India by 44.7%, whereas Japan showed a 12.3% decrease.
At 30 September 2022, the cost of sales and other net operating costs amounted to €1,807,891 thousand, with a 66.3% ratio to sales, up compared to 63.4% for the same period of the previous year. Within this item, costs for capitalised internal works amounted to €16,836 thousand compared to €16,278 thousand for the same period of 2021.
Income (expense) from non-financial investments totalled €13,658 thousand (€11,334 thousand in 2021) and was attributable to the effects of valuing the investment in the BSCCB Group using the equity method.
Personnel expenses amounted to €451,677 thousand, with a 16.6% ratio to sales, decreasing compared to the same period of the previous year (18.4%). At 30 September 2022, workforce numbered 12,897 (12,225 at 31 December 2021 and 11,539 at 30 September 2021).
Gross operating income was €482,314 thousand (17.7% of sales) compared to €381,659 thousand in 2021 (18.7% of sales).
Net operating income amounted to €303,114 thousand (11.1% of sales) compared to €224,081 thousand in 2021 (11.0% of sales), after depreciation, amortisation and impairment losses of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets of €179,200 thousand, compared to depreciation, amortisation and impairment losses amounting to €157,578 thousand for the same period of 2021.
Net interest income amounted to €1,424 thousand (expense of €4,534 thousand in 2021) and consisted of net exchange gains of €10,994 thousand (€3,421 thousand in 2021) and interest expense of €9,570 thousand (€7,955 thousand for the same period of the previous year).
Net interest income from investments, which amounted to €7,835 thousand (€3,973 thousand in 2021), was attributable to the effects of valuing investments in associates using the equity method and dividends received by investees not included in the consolidation area.
Result before taxes was positive at €312,373 thousand (11.4% of sales) compared to €223,520 thousand (10.9% of sales) in 2021. Based on tax rates applicable for the year under current tax regulations, estimated taxation amounted to €76,744 thousand (€54,640 thousand in 2021). Tax rate was 24.6% compared to 24.4% for the first nine months of 2021.
The result from discontinued operations, negative for €277 thousand, was attributable to the contribution of the company Brembo Argentina S.A. in dissolution and winding up procedure, reclassified to this item following the Group's decision, taken in 2019, to discontinue its industrial operations at the Buenos Aires plant.
The Group's net result at 30 September 2022 amounted to €234,820 thousand (8.6% of sales) compared to €168,653 thousand in 2021 (8.3% of sales).
Net Invested Capital at the end of the period amounted to €2,592,358 thousand, up by €361,064 thousand compared to €2,231,294 thousand at 31 December 2021.
Net financial debt at 30 September 2022 was €630,670 thousand compared to €411,837 thousand at 31 December 2021. The €218,833 thousand increase for the period was mainly attributable to the combined effect of the following factors:

Our orders backlog for the coming months remains robust at global level. Barring extraordinary changes in the geopolitical situation and the macro-economic context, Brembo expects a 30% growth in revenues for FY 2022 compared to 2021 — an improvement on previous projections — and margins in line with the first nine months of 2022.
To correctly assess Brembo's performance in the first nine months of 2022, it is essential to consider the world macroeconomic scenario, specifically for the markets in which the Group operates.
"Countering the Cost-of-Living Crisis" is the title of the October WEO (World Economic Outlook), the reference document analysing the evolution of global economy published by the IMF (International Monetary Fund). The global economy continues to face steep challenges, shaped by the lingering effects of three powerful forces: the Russian invasion of Ukraine, a cost-of-living crisis caused by persistent and broadening inflation pressures and the slowdown in China. Russia's invasion of Ukraine continues to powerfully destabilise the global economy, resulting in a severe energy crisis in Europe that is increasing costs of living and hampering economic activity. Gas prices in Europe have increased more than four-fold since 2021, with Russia cutting deliveries by 20% of their 2021 levels, raising the prospect of energy shortages over the next winter. The conflict has also pushed up food prices on world markets, and the ensuing inflation pressures have triggered a rapid and synchronised tightening of monetary conditions, alongside a powerful appreciation of the US dollar against most other currencies. Tighter global monetary and financial conditions will work their way through the economy, weighing demand down and helping to gradually subjugate inflation. For many emerging markets, the strength of the dollar is causing acute challenges, tightening financial conditions and increasing the cost of imported goods.
According to the data published in the WEO Report, slowdown in global growth is forecast from 6.0% in 2021 to 3.2% in 2022 and 2.7% in 2023. The global slowdown in 2022 is as projected in the July 2022 WEO Update, while the forecast for 2023 is lower than projected by 0.2 percentage point. The world's three largest economies — China, the euro area, and the US — will slow significantly in 2022 and 2023, with downgrades compared with the predictions made in April and July due to several factors: tightening global financial conditions in most regions, associated with expectations of steeper interest rate hikes by major central banks to fight inflation; a sharper slowdown in China due to extended lockdowns and the worsening property market crisis; and spillover effects from the war in Ukraine with gas supplies from Russia to Europe tightening.
In the Eurozone, growth is projected at 3.1% in 2022 (compared to 2.6% forecast in July) and at 0.5% in 2023, according to the estimates published by the IMF. In detail, Spain is expected to report the most remarkable growth (4.3%) followed by Italy (3.2%) and France (2.5%). Germany is expected to report worse performances, with GDP (gross domestic product) increasing by 1.5%, and thus less than the estimated European average for 2022. Despite the IMF's guarded optimism, according to S&P Global PMI data, the Eurozone's manufacturing sector declined further due to plummeting demand and worsening price pressures. The Eurozone's manufacturing PMI was revised downwards to 48.4 in September, down from 49.6 in August, marking a further exacerbation of operating conditions for euro area goods manufacturers. In the document, it is stated that demand for goods in the Eurozone decreased in September as high inflation and economic uncertainty are believed to have had a severe negative effect on customer spending. Business confidence then fell to its lowest level since May 2020, leading companies to further reduce purchasing in view of more adverse conditions. Commenting on the final Manufacturing PMI data, Chris Williamson, the Chief Business Economist at S&P Global Market Intelligence, said: "The ugly combination of a manufacturing sector in recession and rising inflationary pressures will add further to concerns about the outlook for the Eurozone economy. Excluding the initial pandemic lockdowns, Eurozone manufacturers have not seen a collapse of demand and production on this scale since the height of the global financial crisis in early-2009."
The IMF has revised its growth estimates for Italy in 2022 upwards. A recovery in tourism-related services and industrial production in the first half of 2022 contributed to projected growth of 3.2%, 0.2 percentage points higher than the July forecasts. Italian GDP performance is thus shaping up to be more favourable than expected this year: in the base scenario, the CSC (Confindustria Studies Centre) forecasts an annual increase of 3.4%, already more than reached mid-way through the year, corresponding to 1.5 percentage points higher than the scenario outlined in April. Although the Italian economy suffered the impact of the pandemic to a greater degree than the Eurozone average, the rebound in 2021 and the first half of 2022 allowed Italy to pull ahead of the other main European economies, compared to pre-pandemic levels. According to the CSC scenario, after a natural slowdown in the third quarter of 2022, production will decline between the fourth quarter of 2022 (-0.6%) and the first quarter of 2023 (-0.3%). In fact, on the one hand, the momentum associated with closing the gap which has now been bridged — with the pre-pandemic period has come to an end, while on the other, the negative effects of higher energy product prices will be seen in full. In the second quarter of 2023, GDP performance is expected to return to positive territory, although to a much modest degree (+0.2% at the quarterly average level).
In the US, the IMF forecasts a significant decrease on its July estimates, and the US economy is expected to stop at growth of 1.6% (-0.7 percentage points compared to the last forecasts). In the report published in October 2022, OECD economists forecast that growth will stand at 1.5% in 2022 and then at 0.5% in 2023, with inflation and rigid financial conditions holding back spending. Inflationary pressures, driven by strong demand, constraints on supply and higher commodities prices due to Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine may prove persistent, leading to further monetary tightening. In the United States, where inflation may have peaked and monetary policy began to be tightened earlier than in most of the other major advanced economies, more rapid progress is expected in bringing inflation back on target than in the euro area or the United Kingdom.
With regard to emerging economies, OECD forecasts that Brazil's GDP growth will slow significantly in 2022 to 0.6%, before rising to 1.2% in 2023, following on the robust recovery of 5% in 2021. The increase in inflation, the war in Ukraine and tighter financial conditions eroded economic sentiment and purchasing power, and this is expected to have a severe impact on domestic demand in the first half of 2022. The 2022 presidential elections are adding uncertainty, helping keep investments low until 2023. The recovery of the job market has been slow; the participation rate and real earned income remain below pre-pandemic levels.
Turning to Russia, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development reduced its GDP forecasts for the country, which will record a 5% decline this year and a 3% decrease in 2023.
According to OECD estimates, after having recorded the sharpest recovery in GDP among G20 countries in 2021, the Indian economy is gradually losing momentum as inflationary expectations remain high due to the increase in global energy and food prices, normalising monetary policy and deteriorating global conditions. Real GDP is expected to increase by 6.9% in 2022 and by 6.2% in 2023, despite a recovery in business investments facilitated by the production incentive system.
In China, according to the IMF, economic growth will decline to 3.2% in 2022 (-0.1% compared to the July projections) and then increase to 4.4% in 2023 (-0.2% compared to the July projections). Amid increasing headwinds, growth will be driven by climate transition investments and the anticipation of infrastructure projects. Real-estate investments will remain weak due to constant defaults by developers and expectations of falling prices. Exports will remain relatively strong as companies keep increasing their market share. The adverse effects on confidence of frequent lockdowns, combined with inadequate social protection, will weigh down consumption, although China's large oil and grain reserves will mitigate the impact of the increase in global energy and food prices.
In its October WEO, the IMF also estimates the arithmetic average prices of the three qualities of crude oil —
18
Brent, Dubai and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) — at 98.19 dollars a barrel at the end of 2022 and 85.52 in 2023.

In detail, sales of light commercial vehicles (up to 3.5 tonnes) declined overall by 20.9% in Europe. All the main European markets by sales volume decreased compared to the same period of 2021: Italy (-12.4%), France (-22.4%), Spain (-27.7%), Germany (-18.9%) and the UK (-20.1%).
The segment of medium and heavy commercial vehicles (over 3.5 tonnes) increased in Europe in the first nine months of 2022, closing at +1.3% compared to the same period of the previous year. Among the five main European markets, only Spain and the United Kingdom reported growth of 10.3% and 3.1%, respectively, whilst the other markets declined, with Italy and France at -1,3% and Germany at -4,4%.
At 30 September 2022, Brembo's net sales of applications in this segment amounted to €266,225 thousand, up 20.4% compared to 30 September 2021.
In the racing sector, where Brembo has maintained undisputed supremacy for years, the Group operates through three leading brands: Brembo Racing, braking systems for race cars and motorbikes; AP Racing, braking systems and clutches for race cars; Marchesini, magnesium and aluminium wheels for racing motorbikes.
In the first nine months of 2022, Brembo's net sales of racing applications amounted to €125,107 thousand, up by 28.3% compared the same period of 2021.
Brembo constantly follows developments relating to the Covid-19 pandemic at all its sites worldwide, promptly adopting all necessary measures to prevent, monitor and contain the virus, with the aim of protecting the health of employees and contractors, such as remote working, rearrangement of production layouts, sanitisation of the premises, personal protective equipment, hygiene rules and social distancing. In the first nine months of 2022, all the Group's plants operated at normal capacity, except for companies based in China due to a lockdown period in the second quarter of 2022.
Following the outbreak of the conflict in Ukraine, Brembo set up a working group to monitor the related developments and formulate the actions needed to mitigate risks and possible direct and indirect impacts on the Group. At the level of direct impacts, Brembo chose, from the outset of the crisis, to halt all sales in Russia and Belarus of aftermarket products (the only GBU concerned by the events), with a €12,213 thousand revenue decline compared to the first nine months of 2021. The current context was reflected in the calculation of the expected credit loss of net receivables claimed in the area concerned by the conflict, amounting to €484 thousand (in addition to €60 thousand credit notes to be issued and referring to pre-conflict sales that will further reduce the exposure). The Group wholly owns the company Brembo Russia Llc. which, through a workforce of 3 employees, promotes the sale of brake discs for the car aftermarket only. In the first nine months of 2022, net sales of the company, entirely to the Parent, amounted to RUB 20,432 thousand (€261 thousand), while net loss was RUB 19,177 thousand (€245 thousand). The balance on the local current accounts was RUB 63,891 thousand. The exchange rate used to convert the amounts into euros was estimated using public data sources. The company continued to be consolidated on a line-by-line basis since all the conditions for the control of the investee still apply. The indirect effects on the Group have also been quite limited thus far, although the automotive sector suffered various disruptions in the supply of raw materials and components that, along with the semiconductor crisis, led manufacturers to plan brief production stoppages. The effects associated with the increase in commodity and energy prices have yielded limited impacts to date, due to the price-hedging strategies implemented prior to the outbreak of the conflict and initiatives of cost recovery from customers. At the macroeconomic level, the main institutions and organisations revised market expectations downwards, due in part to the effects of inflation. However, it is estimated that such impacts will be more modest for the Group than for other automotive companies, thanks to the market segment targeted by Brembo. At the level of compliance, Brembo analyses and monitors, with the support of external advisors, the development of the sanctions levied against Russia by Western countries. In this regard, there are currently no direct impacts on the Group. With regards to the human emergency caused by the conflict, Brembo implemented a plan of concrete actions in support of the Ukrainian population. At the Company's Italian sites, products were collected to meet refugees' basic needs. Brembo's personnel were also given the opportunity to participate in voluntary donation of one or more hours of work, to which Brembo added a contribution equivalent to the total raised. In further support of the population fleeing the war, Brembo signed an agreement with CESVI Foundation for a project known as "Safe Haven" with the aim of hosting Ukrainian refugees in a hotel in Poland, offering them a period of room, board, treatment and orientation.
Following the resignation of Laura Cioli, serving as Independent Director, Chairwoman of the Audit, Risk & Sustainability Committee and member of the Remuneration & Appointments Committee, on 3 March 2022 the Board of Directors of Brembo S.p.A., after having heard the recommendations and guidelines of the Remuneration & Appointments Committee, co-opted Manuela Soffientini as new Independent Director, member of the Audit, Risk & Sustainability Committee and of the Remuneration & Appointments Committee (the Director's resume is available on the Company's website: Governing Boards and Committees | Brembo - Official website). In addition, Independent Director Elisabetta Magistretti was appointed Chairwoman of the Audit, Risk & Sustainability Committee.
The General Shareholders' Meeting of the Parent Brembo S.p.A. held on 21 April 2022 approved the Financial Statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2021, allocating net income for the year amounting to €111,228,545.97 as follows:
On 25 July 2022, Brembo signed a 50/50 Joint Venture agreement with Shandong Gold Phoenix Co. Ltd., a leading Chinese company listed on Shanghai Stock Exchange, specialised in designing, testing, manufacturing and marketing braking system and pads/friction material for original equipment and aftermarket. The agreement provides for the formation of the new company — Shandong BRGP Friction Technology Co. Ltd. — that will be fully dedicated to the large-scale manufacturing of innovative aftermarket pads for the car and commercial vehicle segments. As part of the transaction, the two companies will make a total investment of approximately €35 million over the next three years.
The Company has adopted the opt-out system envisaged by Article 70, paragraph 8, and Article 71, paragraph 1bis, of the Rules for Issuers (Board's Resolution dated 17 December 2012), thus opting out from the obligation to publish the required disclosure documents in the case of significant mergers, de-mergers, capital increase by way of contributions in kind, acquisitions and disposals.
The General Shareholders' Meeting held on 21 April 2022 passed a new plan for the buy-back and sale of own shares with the following objectives:
The maximum number of shares that may be purchased is 8,000,000 that, with the 10,035,000 own shares already
held (3.005% of share capital), represents 5.401% of the Company's share capital.
Own shares can be bought back up to a maximum of €144 million:
With reference to the disposal of own shares, the Board of Directors will define, from time to time, in accordance with applicable legislation and/or allowed market practices, the criteria to set the relevant consideration and/or methods, terms and conditions to use own shares in portfolio, taking due account of the realisation methods applied, the price trend of the stock in the period before the transaction and the best interest of the Company. The authorisation to buy back own shares is valid for a period of 18 months from the date of the resolution by the General Shareholders' Meeting.
Brembo has neither bought nor sold own shares in the first nine months of the year.
No significant events occurred after the end of the first nine months of 2022 and until 9 November 2022.
