TIP closes the first half of 2019 with equity of approximately Euro 783 million, increasing by nearly 120 million over December 31, 2018, following a pro-forma net profit of over Euro 41 million, compared to over Euro 92 million in the first half of 2018, which however included the revaluation of the Roche Bobois Group following its listing in July.
Advisory activity recorded revenues of approximately Euro 5.3 million in the period, compared to approximately Euro 1.6 million in the first half of 2018.
Profits were also driven by financial income, mainly dividends from investees and interest - of approximately Euro 7 million.
As usual, for comparable presentation to shareholders of period results in continuity with those of the previous years considered more representative, not only for operating purposes, of the effective results, the first half 2019 pro-forma income statement applying the same accounting standards for financial assets and liabilities in place at December 31, 2017 (IAS 39) is presented below. The Directors' Report therefore comments upon the pro-forma figures, while the Notes provide disclosure upon the figures calculated as per IFRS 9.

The IFRS 9 income statement does not include capital gains in the period on the sale of equity investments of Euro 22.9 million.
The pro-forma profit for the period is supported by the direct and indirect capital gains of approximately Euro 15.7 million on the divestments of iGuzzini through the associate TIPO, but also by the capital gains of approximately Euro 21.8 million realised on the divestments of the holdings in FCA, Ferrari and Nice. On the closing of the iGuzzini sale of March 7, 2019, TIPO collected approximately Euro 45.1 million and received 1,781,739 Fagerhult shares. The withdrawal from Fimag on May 29, 2019 resulted in TIPO collecting Euro 24.2 million, including an
extraordinary dividend, and the transfer of an additional 935,689 Fagerhult shares. In May 2019 TIPO subscribed its share of the capital increase approved by Fagerhult, with an investment of Euro 2.9 million. Among the other associated companies, IPGH contributed with a share of profit of approximately Euro 7.2 million, while Alpitour, indirectly owned through Asset Italia, negatively impacted for approximately Euro 5.2 million on the basis of business seasonality whereby the majority of profits are generated in the second half of each business year.
Operating costs decreased compared on the first half of 2018, as the latter included non-recurring costs sustained by the subsidiary TXR for the listing of Roche Bobois and rental charges that, following the adoption of IFRS 16, are no longer recorded as operating costs. As previously, the executive directors' fees are linked to the company's performance and were calculated, as agreed, on pro-forma figures according to the accounting standards adopted until the end of 2017.
On March 11, 2019 TIP acquired the entire equity investment held by Gruppo Coin S.p.A. (a company indirectly controlled by BC Partners funds and in which interests were held by the management of OVS S.p.A.) in OVS, amounting to 40,485,898 shares accounting for 17.835% of the share capital for the price of Euro 1.85 per share and a total price of Euro 74,898,911.30. As a result of this acquisition, TIP, which had previously held an interest of approximately 4.912%, increased its total investment to 22.747%, with a total pay-out of Euro 91.6 million. The reclassification of the investment to associated companies resulted in the recording of the increase in the fair value recognised on the portion of the investment previously held until the acquisition date in a similar manner to that which would be applied for the holding's divestment. Therefore, having ascertained significant influence, the cumulative fair value increase of approximately Euro 1.1 million, recognised to the OCI reserve, has been booked to the pro-forma income statement according to IAS 39 and reclassified as retained earnings under equity as per IFRS 9; the investment previously classified to "Investments measured at FVOIC" was reversed and was recognised to "associated companies measured under the equity method". The OVS investment also contributed approximately Euro 0.4 million to the result. This business is also affected by a significant degree of seasonality. Company management expect results to improve in the second half of the year (OVS' year-end is January 31).
In March 2019, Talent Garden completed a capital increase of Euro 23 million, in which TIP participated in the amount of Euro 5 million through StarTIP, confirming its main investor role. As a result of the transaction, the interest in Talent Garden held directly by StarTIP came to 5.9%, whereas the total implicit interest held, considering also the indirect holdings, including the interest held by Heroes and the interest held by Digital Magics, amounted to approximately 20%.
In April, StarTIP slightly increased its holding in Buzzoole.
In addition activities continued that allowed the finalisation other major investments, as reported in the subsequent events paragraph.
Treasury share purchases continued in 2019 for approximately Euro 6 million.
Consolidated equity increased by approximately Euro 116.3 million, compared to Euro 666.4 million as at December 31, 2018, following a buyback of treasury shares of approximately Euro 6.1 million and after distributing dividends of approximately Euro 11.1 million, mainly due to the value recoveries of the investments measured at fair value which were partly, as previously reported, realised through divestments which generated gains. In addition, in May 2019 stock options were exercised by directors through cash settlement and with a reduction in shareholders' equity of approximately Euro 11.3 million. In June 2019, 7,561,067 warrants were exercised, including 892,650 warrants held by the executive directors, resulting in the issue of a similar number of new TIP shares and a capital increase, including share premium, of approximately Euro 37.8 million.
The TIP Group consolidated net debt – also taking into account the TIP 2014-2020 bond – at June 30, 2019 was approximately Euro 138.0 million, compared to approximately Euro 140.5 million at December 31, 2018. Investments in bonds were cashed in the period and credit lines and loans renegotiated to make cash available for new investments.
The results for the first half already announced by the main investees Amplifon, Be, Ferrari, Interpump, Moncler and Prysmian confirmed the good performance expected for 2019. The other direct and indirect investees are also performing well.

Finally, to further seal the agreements reached, TIP agreed with Elica the acquisition of all of the treasury shares owned (equal to 2.014% of the share capital), at the same price per share agreed with Whirlpool EMEA S.p.A..
After June 30 the acquisition of treasury shares restarted, as well as a further lightening of the investment in Ferrari. Due to the exercise of stock options by an executive director, 370,000 treasury shares were sold in July.
In the first half of 2019 and in the subsequent months, the TIP Group has undertaken partial divestments, making strong gains, but most of all has undertaken new investments, continuing its growth and affirming its role – through employing a unique business model in Italy - as an entrepreneurial partner and financial backer for outstanding companies willing to grow and/or resolve governance issues, always with a view to accelerating business development.
Given the nature of the activities of TIP it is not easy to forecast the performance for the second half of the current year. Repeating the results achieved by the TIP Group in the first half of 2019 will depend partly on market performances and opportunities which will arise in the future.
During the year, the Company did not carry out any research and development activity.
In relation to the principal Group risks and uncertainties, reference should be made to note 28.
At June 30, 2019, treasury shares in portfolio totalled 6,978,056, equal to 4.057% of the share capital. At the present date, treasury shares in portfolio total 7,916,537, equal to 4.603% of the share capital.

The TIP Group is an independent investment/merchant bank focused on Italian medium-sized companies, with a particular involvement in:
The parent company TIP was incorporated in Italy as a limited liability company and with registered office in Italy.
The company was listed in November 2005 and on December 20, 2010 Borsa Italiana S.p.A. assigned the STAR classification to TIP ordinary shares.
The 2019 condensed consolidated half-year report was approved by the Board of Directors on September 11, 2019.
The condensed consolidated half-year financial statements at June 30, 2019 were prepared in accordance with the going-concern concept and in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and International Accounting Standards (hereafter "IFRS", "IAS" or international accounting standards) issued by the International Accounting Standards Boards (IASB) and the relative interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), and adopted by the European Commission with Regulation No. 1725/2003 and subsequent modifications, in accordance with Regulation No. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and in particular the Condensed Consolidated Half-Year Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with IAS 34.
The condensed consolidated financial statements are comprised of the income statement, the comprehensive income statement, the statement of financial position, the change in equity, the statement of cash flow and the explanatory notes, together with the Directors' Report. The financial statements were prepared in units of Euro, without decimal amounts.
The financial statements were prepared in accordance with IAS 1, while the Explanatory Notes were prepared in condensed form in accordance with IAS 34 and therefore do not include all the disclosures required for the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The accounting policies and methods utilised for the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements have changed from those utilised for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, mainly due to application from January
1, 2019 of IFRS 16, as outlined in detail in the paragraph "new accounting standards".
The income statement, the comprehensive income statement and the consolidated statement of cash flows at June 30, 2018 and the statement of financial position at December 31, 2018 were utilised for comparative purposes.
During the period, no special circumstances arose requiring recourse to the exceptions allowed under IAS 1.
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires the formulation of valuations, estimates and assumptions which impact the application of the accounting principles and the amounts of the assets, liabilities, costs and revenues recorded in the financial statements. These estimates and relative assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors considered reasonable. However, it should be noted as these refer to estimates, the results obtained will not necessarily be the same as those represented. The estimates are used to value the provisions for risks on receivables, measurement at fair value of financial instruments, employee benefits and income taxes.
IAS 12 – Income Tax, concerning the classification of tax effects related to the payment of dividends and
IAS 23 – Borrowing costs, concerning financial charges admissible for capitalisation.
▪ In February 2018, the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 19 which sets out how to calculate pension expenses in the case of a change, reduction or settlement of an existing defined benefits plan. In particular, the document requires the use of updated actuarial assumptions in calculating the cost for the provision of current labour and the net financial expenses for the period subsequent to the event.
The application of the amendments to the existing accounting standards reported above do not have a significant impact on the Group consolidated financial statements. The IFRS 16 impacts are outlined below.
As illustrated previously, the TIP Group adopted IFRS 16 for the preparation of the financial statements for periods which commence from January 1, 2019 and thereafter. This resulted in a change in the accounting policies and criteria used from those applied for the preparation of the financial statements at December 31, 2018.
In accordance with that required for the transition to IFRS 16, the company adopted the modified retrospective approach which does not require the reclassification of the comparative period. It also adopted the option to recognise usage right assets at a value equal to the initial recognition value of liabilities for leasing, calculated as the present value of the relative future payments discounted at the marginal debt rate. Therefore, the 2018 comparative figures have not been adjusted and there were no impacts on the January 1, 2019 shareholders' equity.
The adoption of IFRS 16 from January 1, 2019 had a slight impact on the consolidated financial statements, with the recognition at January 1, 2019 of right-of-use assets and liabilities for leasing of Euro 1,471,407, while in the period lease charges for the period were not recognised to the income statement of Euro 159,232, while the amortisation of the usage value of leasing contracts was recognised for Euro 147,833, in addition to the financial charges relating to the liabilities for leasing of Euro 11,036.
implemented at the present condensed consolidated half-year reporting date. Advance application of this standard is permitted.
The impacts of these amendments on the Group consolidated financial statements are currently being assessed. Based on a preliminary review of the potential issues, significant impacts are not expected.
The consolidation scope includes the parent TIP - Tamburi Investment Partners S.p.A. and the companies over which it exercises direct or indirect control. An investor controls an entity in which an investment has been made when exposed to variable income streams or when possessing rights to such income streams based on the relationship with the entity, and at the same time has the capacity to affect such income steams through the exercise of its power. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date control is effectively transferred to the Group, and cease to be consolidated from the date control is transferred outside the Group.
At June 30, 2019, the consolidation scope included the companies Clubdue S.r.l., StarTIP S.r.l. and TXR S.r.l..

| TXR S.r.l. | Milan | 100,000 | 100,000 | 51,000 | 51.0% |
The details of the subsidiaries were as follows:
The consolidation of the subsidiaries is made on the basis of the respective financial statements of the subsidiaries, adjusted where necessary to ensure uniform accounting policies with the Parent Company.
All inter-company balances and transactions, including any unrealised gains deriving from transactions between Group companies are fully eliminated. Unrealised losses are eliminated except when they represent a permanent impairment in value.
The main accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the consolidated half-year report at June 30, 2019 are disclosed below.
Property, plant & equipment are recognised at historical cost, including directly allocated accessory costs and those necessary for bringing the asset to the condition for which it was acquired. If major components of such tangible assets have different useful lives, such components are accounted for separately.
Tangible assets are presented net of accumulated depreciation and any losses in value, calculated as described below.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis according to the estimated useful life of the asset; useful life is reviewed annually. Any changes, where necessary, are recorded in accordance with future estimates; the main depreciation rates used are the following:
| - | furniture & fittings | 12% |
|---|---|---|
| - | equipment & plant | 15% |
| - | EDP | 20% |
| - | mobile telephones | 20% |
| - | equipment | 15% |
| - | Automobiles | 25% |
The book value of tangible assets is tested to ascertain possible losses in value if events or circumstances indicate that the book value cannot be recovered. If there is an indication of this type and in the case where the carrying value exceeds the realisable value, the assets must be written down to their realisable value. The realisable value of the property, plant and equipment is the higher between the net sales price and the value in use. In defining the value of use, the expected future cash flows are discounted using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessment of the time value of money and the specific risks of the activity. Losses in value are charged to the income statement under amortisation, depreciation and write-down costs. Such losses are restated when the reasons for their write-down no longer exist.
At the moment of the sale, or when there are no expected future economic benefits from the use of an asset, this is eliminated from the financial statements and any loss or gain (calculated as the
difference between the disposal value and the book value) is recorded in the income statement in the year of the above-mentioned elimination.
Business combinations are recorded using the purchase method. Goodwill represents the surplus of acquisition cost compared to the purchaser's share of the identifiable net fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired, current and potential. After initial recognition, goodwill is reduced by any accumulated losses in value, calculated with the methods described below.
Goodwill deriving from acquisitions prior to January 1, 2004 are recorded at replacement cost, equal to the value recorded in the last financial statements prepared in accordance with the previous accounting standards (December 31, 2003). In the preparation of the opening financial statements in accordance with international accounting standards the acquisitions before January 1, 2004 were not reconsidered.
Goodwill is subject to a recoverability analysis conducted annually or at shorter intervals in case of events or changes that could result in possible losses in value. Any goodwill emerging at the acquisition date is allocated to each cash-generating unit which is expected to benefit from the synergies of the acquisition. Any loss in value is identified by means of valuations based on the ability of each cash-generating unit to produce cash flows for purposes of recovering the part of goodwill allocated to it; these valuations are conducted with the methods described in the section referring to tangible assets. If the recoverable value of the cash-generating unit is less than the attributed book value, the loss in value is recorded.
This loss is not restated if the reasons for the loss no longer exist.
Other intangible assets are recorded at cost, in accordance with the procedures indicated for tangible fixed assets.
The intangible assets with definite useful lives are recognised net of the relative accumulated amortisation and any permanent impairment in value, determined in the same manner as that for tangible assets.
The useful life is reviewed on an annual basis and any changes, where necessary, are made in accordance with future estimates.
The gains and losses deriving from the disposal of intangible assets are determined as the difference between the value of disposal and the carrying value of the asset and are recorded in the income statement at the moment of the disposal.
A leasing contract assigns to an entity the right to use an asset for a set period of time in exchange for consideration. For the lessee, at accounting level there is no distinction between finance and operating leases, with both applying a common accounting model to record leases. According to this model, the company recognises to its balance sheet an asset, representing the relative right-ofuse, and a liability, representing the obligation to make contractually agreed payments, for all leases with a duration of greater than twelve months whose value is not considered insignificant, while in
the income statement recording depreciation of the asset recognised and separately the interest on the payable recorded.
Associated companies are companies in which the Group exercises a significant influence on the financial and operating policies, although not having control. Significant influence is presumed when between 20% and 50% of voting rights is held in another entity.
Investments in associated companies are measured under the equity method and initially recorded at cost. The investments include the goodwill identified on acquisition, less any cumulative loss in value. The consolidated financial statements include the share of profits and losses of the investees measured under the equity method, net of any adjustments necessary to align accounting principles and eliminate intercompany margins not realised, on the date in which significant influence commences or the joint control until the date such influence or control ceases. The adjustments necessary for the elimination of intercompany margins not realised are recorded in the account "share of profits/loss of investments under equity". When the share of the loss of an investment measured under the equity method exceeds the book value of the investee, the investment is written-down and the share of the further losses are not recorded except in the cases where there is a legal or implied contractual obligation or where payments were made on behalf of the investee.
For the investments in equity, comprising generally investments with shareholdings below 20% which are not held for trading, according to the option under IFRS 9, they are recognised recording the changes in the fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI) and therefore with counter-entry to an equity reserve. The FVOCI accounting of the investments in equity provides for, on sale, the reversal from the fair value reserve matured directly to other equity reserves. The dividends received from the investments are therefore recognised in the income statement.
The fair value is identified in the case of listed investments with the stock exchange price at the balance sheet date and in the case of investments in non-listed companies utilising valuation techniques. These valuation techniques include the comparison with the values taken from similar recent operations and other valuation techniques which are substantially based on the analysis of the capacity of the investee to produce future cash flows, discounted to reflect the time value of money and the specific risks of the activities undertaken.
The investments in equity instruments which do not have a listed price on a regulated market and whose fair value cannot be reasonably valued, are measured at cost, reduced by any loss in value.
The choice between the above-mentioned methods is not optional, as these must be applied in hierarchal order: absolute priority is given to official prices available on active markets (effective market quotes – level 1) or for assets and liabilities measured based on valuation techniques which take into account observable market parameters (comparable approaches – level 2) and the lowest priority to assets and liability whose fair value is calculated based on valuation techniques which take as reference non-observable parameters on the market and therefore more discretional (market model – level 3).
These concern financial assets acquired by the company with the intention of maintaining them until maturity in order to receive the relative interest, and any sales are incidental events. These financial assets are valued at amortised cost.
The financial assets, generally convertible loans, which generate cash flows which provide for the allocation of shares and/or include implied derivatives relating to the conversion clauses, are measured at fair value with the relative changes recognised to the income statement.
The derivative instruments not embedded in other financial instruments are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The current financial assets measured at FVOCI are non-derivative financial assets comprising investments in bond securities which constitute temporary liquidity investments realised in accordance with the business model which provides for the receipt of the relative cash flows and the sale of the bonds on an opportunistic basis. The cash flows from these financial instruments comprise solely principal and interest.
They are measured at FVOCI, recognising to an equity reserve the fair value changes in the securities until the date of sale and recording in the income statement interest income and any impairments. At the time of sale, the gains/losses are recognised through profit or loss with reversal of the fair value changes through profit or loss previously recognised in the equity reserve.
Receivables are recorded at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost. They are adjustments for sums considered uncollectible.
The purchases and sales of securities are recorded and cancelled at the settlement date.
Cash and cash equivalents include those values which are available on demand at short notice (within three months), certain in nature and with no payment expenses. Financial operations are recorded at the settlement date.
For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, available liquidity is represented by cash and cash equivalents less bank overdrafts at the balance sheet date.
Trade payables are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost. The financial liabilities are recorded at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
The benefits guaranteed to employees paid on the termination of employment or thereafter through defined benefit plans are recognised in the period the right matures. The liability for defined benefit plans, net of any plan assets, is calculated on the basis of actuarial assumptions and is recorded by the accrual method consistent with the years of employment necessary to obtain such benefits. The liability is calculated by independent actuaries.
The Company recognises additional benefits to some employees through stock option plans. According to IFRS 2 – Share-based payments, these plans are a component of the remuneration of the beneficiaries and provide for application of the "equity settlement" method. Therefore, the relative cost is represented by the fair value of the stock options at the grant date, and is recognised in the income statement over the period between the grant date and the maturity date, and directly recorded under equity. On the exercise of the options by the beneficiaries with the transfer of treasury shares against the liquidity received, the stock option plan reserve is reversed for the portion attributable to the options exercised, and the treasury shares reserve is reversed based on the average cost of the shares transferred and the residual differential is recorded as the gains/loss on treasury shares traded with counter-entry in the share premium reserve, in accordance with the accounting policy adopted.
The treasury shares held by the parent company are recorded as a reduction from equity in the negative treasury shares reserve. The original cost of the treasury shares and the income deriving from any subsequent sale are recognised as equity movements, recording the differential as the gains/loss on treasury shares traded with counter-entry in the share premium reserve, in accordance with the accounting policy adopted
Revenues are recognised when the customer acquires control of the services provided and, consequently, when having the capacity to direct usage and obtain benefits. In the case in which a contract stipulates a portion of consideration dependent on the occurrence of future events, the estimate of the variable part is included in revenues only where such is considered highly probable. In the case of transactions concerning the simultaneous provision of a number of services, the sales price is allocated on the basis of the price which the company would apply to customers where such services included in the contract were sold individually. According to this type of operation, the revenues are recognised on the basis of the specific criteria indicated below:
Where it is not possible to reliably determine the value of revenues, they are recognised up to the costs incurred which may reasonably be recovered.
The income and charges deriving from the sale of shares are recorded on an accruals basis at the operation valuation date, recording changes in fair value to the income statement which were previously recognised through equity.
Financial income and charges are recorded on an accruals basis on the interest matured on the net value of the relative financial assets and liabilities and utilising the effective interest rate.
The dividends are recorded in the year in which the right of the shareholders to receive the payment arises. The dividends received from investments valued under the equity method were recorded as a reduction in the value of the investments.
Current income taxes for the period are determined based on an estimate of the taxable assessable income and in accordance with current legislation. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated on temporary differences between the values recorded in the financial statements and the corresponding values recognised for fiscal purposes. The recognition of deferred tax assets is made when their recovery is probable - that is when it is expected that there will be future assessable fiscal income sufficient to recover the asset. The recovery of the deferred tax asset is reviewed at each balance sheet date. Deferred tax liabilities are always recorded in accordance with the provisions of IAS 12.
The choices adopted by the Group relating to the presentation of the consolidated financial statements are illustrated below:
The company undertakes investment banking and merchant banking activities. Top management activity in the above-mentioned areas, both at marketing contact level and institutional initiatives and direct involvement in the various deals, is highly integrated. In addition, execution activity is also organised with the objective to render the "on-call" commitment of advisory or equity professional staff more flexible.
In relation to this choice it is almost impossible to provide a clear representation of the separate financial economic impact of the different areas of activity, as the breakdown of the personnel costs of top management and other employees on the basis of a series of estimates related to parameters which could be subsequently superseded by the actual operational activities would result in an extremely high distortion of the level of profitability of the segments of activity.
In the present condensed consolidated half-year financial statements only the details of the performance of the "revenues from sales and services" component is provided, related to the sole activity of advisory, excluding therefore the account "other revenues".

The "Other" account includes bank interest on loans and other financial charges.
The account concerns for approximately Euro 7.2 million the share of profit of the associated company IPGH, while Alpitour, indirectly owned through Asset Italia, negatively impacted for approximately Euro 5.2 million on the basis of normal business seasonality whereby profit is essentially generated in the second half of each business year. The share of the profit of TIPO does not include, in application of IFRS 9, the portion of approximately Euro 10.5 million of the capital gain realised on the sale of the investment in iGuzzini, which however resulted in the reclassification to shareholders' equity from the FV OCI reserve without reversal to the income statement of retained earnings. The gain realised following the withdrawal from Fimag of Euro 5.2 million by TIPO is also not included in the share of the result, but subject to reclassification to reserves.

The company recognised directly to equity a decrease of Euro 1,092,527, principally concerning the increase in deferred taxes relating to the fair value of investments measured at OCI.
"Goodwill" for Euro 9,806,574 refers to the incorporation of the subsidiary Tamburi & AssociatiS.p.A. into TIP S.p.A. in 2007.
At June 30, 2019, no indications arose that the goodwill had incurred a loss in value and therefore it was not necessary to carry out an impairment test.
The account refers to minority investments in listed and non-listed companies.

The investment in Digital Magics S.p.A., of which the TIP Group holds 22.72% through StarTIP, was not classified as an associated company, although in the presence of a holding above 20% and some indicators which would be associated with significant influence, as Digital Magics is unable to provide periodic financial information such as to permit the TIP Group recognition in accordance with the equity method.
The unavailability of such information represents a limitation in the exercise of significant influence and consequently it was considered appropriate to qualify the investment as measured at FVOCI.
On March 11, 2019 TIP acquired 40,485,898 shares accounting for 17.835% of the share capital for the price of Euro 1.85 per share and a total price of Euro 74,898,911.30. As a result of this acquisition, TIP, which had previously held an interest of approximately 4.912%, increased its total investment to 22.747%, with a total pay-out of Euro 91.6 million. The reclassification of the investment to associated companies resulted in the recording of the increase in the fair value recognised on the portion of the investment previously held until the acquisition date in a similar manner to that which would be applied for the holding's divestment. Therefore, having ascertained significant influence, the cumulative fair value increase of approximately Euro 1.1 million, recognised to the OCI reserve, has been recognised to retained earnings under equity as per IFRS 9; the investment previously classified to "Investments measured at FVOCI" was reversed and was recognised to "associated companies measured under the equity method" for an amount of Euro 92,660,939. At June 30, 2019, the value of the investment, considering the effects of recognition under the equity method, was Euro 93,361,094.

For the changes in the year and breakdown of other equity items, reference should be made to the specific statement.
This positive reserve amounts to Euro 1,164,493. These principally concern the fair value changes of securities acquired as temporary uses of liquidity. The relative fair value was reversed to the income statement on the sale of the underlying security.

The diluted earnings per share in the first half of 2019 was Euro 0.03.

The Group, by nature of its activities, is exposed to various types of financial risks - in particular to the risk of changes in market prices of investments and, marginally, to the risk of interest rates.
The policies adopted by the Group for the management of the financial risk are illustrated below.
The Group is exposed to the interest rate risk relating to the value of the current financial assets represented by bonds and financial receivables. As these investments are mainly temporary uses of liquidity which may be liquidated quickly, it was not considered necessary to adopt specific hedges.
The Group, by nature of its activities, is exposed to the risk of changes in the value of the investments.
In relation to the listed investments at the present moment there is no efficient hedging instrument of a portfolio such as those with the characteristics of the Group.
Relating to non-listed companies, the risks related:
were not hedged through specific derivative instruments as not available. The Group attempts to minimise the risk – although within a merchant banking activity and therefore by definition risky – through a careful analysis of the companies and sectors on entry into the share capital, as well as through careful monitoring of the performance of the investee companies after entry in the share capital.
The Group's exposure to the credit risk depends on the specific characteristics of each client as well as the type of activities undertaken and in any case at the preparation date of the present financial statements is not considered significant.
Before undertaking an assignment, careful analysis is undertaken on the credit reliability of the client.
The Group approach in the management of liquidity guarantees, where possible, that there are always sufficient funds to meet current obligations.
At June 30, 2019, the Group had in place sufficient credit lines to cover the group's financial needs.
Directors provide for maintaining high levels of own capital in order to maintain a relationship of trust with investors, allowing for future development.
The parent company acquired treasury shares on the market on the basis of available prices.
The classification of financial instruments at fair value in accordance with IFRS 13 is determined based on the quality of the input sources used in the valuation, according to the following hierarchy:
▪ level 3: determination of fair value based on valuation models whose input is not based on observable market data ("unobservable inputs"). These refer for example to valuations of non-listed investments based on Discounted Cash Flow valuation methods.
In accordance with the disclosures required by IFRS 13, the types of financial instruments recorded in the financial statement at June 30, 2019 are illustrated below with indication of the accounting policies applied and, in the case of financial instruments measured at fair value, of the exposure to changes in fair value (income statement or equity), specifying also the hierarchical level of fair value attributed.
The final column of the following tables shows, where applicable, the fair value at the end of the period of the financial instrument.
