In the second quarter, revenues for the brand amounted to EUR 336.3 million, up 5% cFX YoY, despite a very high comparable base, supported by solid growth recorded in the DTC channel, to which all regions contributed positively.

MONCLER BRAND: REVENUES BY GEOGRAPHY

In Asia (which includes APAC, Japan and Korea) H1 revenues were EUR 513.0 million, up 19% cFX compared to the first half of 2023. In the second quarter, revenues in the region grew by 6% cFX YoY, driven by strong growth registered in Japan, supported mostly by tourists, as well as by the positive performance of the Chinese mainland, notwithstanding the tough comparable base and the increase in Chinese consumption abroad. Korea and the rest of APAC showed softer trends.

EMEA recorded revenues of EUR 380.6 million in H1 2024, +12% cFX compared to H1 2023. In the second quarter, revenues in the region increased by 6% cFX YoY, supported by solid tourist purchases as well as positive local consumption. Chinese, American and Korean customers remained the strongest contributors to tourist purchases in the region.

In the first half of 2024, revenues in the Americas increased by 8% cFX compared to H1 2023. In the second quarter revenues in the region were down 1% cFX YoY, with the positive performance registered in the DTC business offset by the decline in the wholesale channel.

MONCLER BRAND: REVENUES BY CHANNEL

In the first half of 2024, the DTC channel recorded revenues of EUR 875.7 million, up 19% cFX compared to the first half of 2023. Revenues in the second quarter of 2024 increased by 8% cFX YoY, notwithstanding a very high comparable base. All three regions recorded positive growth with EMEA outperforming largely due to the contribution from tourist consumption. The growth in the DTC channel in the second quarter was penalised by the weak performance of the direct online channel across all regions.

In H1 2024, revenues by stores open for at least 12 months (Comparable Store Sales Growth ) grew by 14% compared to H1 2023.

The wholesale channel recorded revenues of EUR 165.5 million in the first half of 2024, a decline of 5% cFX compared to H1 2023. In the second quarter, revenues in this channel declined by 5% cFX YoY, mainly impacted by the ongoing efforts to upgrade the quality of the distribution network.

As of 30 June 2024, the network of Moncler mono-brand boutiques comprised 277 directly operated stores (DOS), +2 net openings compared to 31 March 2024, including the conversion of Macau Four Seasons and the opening of JiNan Mixc in China. The Moncler brand also operated 56 wholesale shop-in-shops (SiS).

In the second quarter, revenues for the brand amounted to EUR 75.9 million, down 4% cFX YoY, with the strong double-digit growth in the DTC channel almost entirely offsetting the decline in the wholesale channel.

STONE ISLAND BRAND: REVENUES BY GEOGRAPHY

Asia (which includes APAC, Japan and Korea) reached EUR 46.7 million revenues in the first half of 2024, growing 27% cFX compared to H1 2023. In the second quarter, the region grew by 27% cFX, mainly driven by the strong performance of Japan and solid growth in APAC. Trends in Korea remained softer than other areas of Asia.

In H1 2024, EMEA which continues to be the most important region for the brand, recorded revenues of EUR 128.9 million, a decrease of 12% cFX compared to H1 2023. In the second quarter, revenues were down 11% cFX YoY, with the strong double-digit performance in the DTC channel not enough to fully offset the decline in the wholesale channel.

In the first half of 2024, revenues in the Americas region were down 21% cFX compared to the first half of 2023. In the second quarter, the region saw a decline of 15% cFX YoY. The positive performance of the DTC channel in the quarter was more than offset by the decline in the wholesale channel, which continued to be impacted by challenging trends mostly among department stores, as well as by the ongoing efforts in upgrading the quality of this channel.

STONE ISLAND BRAND: REVENUES BY CHANNEL

In the first six months of 2024, the DTC channel revenues reached EUR 92.6 million, +29% cFX compared to H1 2023, representing 49% of total H1 2024 revenues. In the second quarter, revenues in this channel were up 27% cFX YoY, thanks to a positive contribution from all regions, with Asia and EMEA outperforming.

In the first half of 2024, the wholesale channel recorded revenues of EUR 96.3 million, down 24% cFX compared to H1 2023. In the second quarter, revenues declined by 28% YoY, impacted by

challenging market trends in this channel and the strict volume control adopted to continuously improve the quality of the network.

As of 30 June 2024, the network of Stone Island mono-brand stores comprised 85 directly operated stores (DOS), a net increase of 2 units compared to 31 March 2024, including the opening of Vienna Kohlmarkt. The Stone Island brand also operated 13 mono-brand wholesale stores.

MONCLER GROUP INCOME STATEMENT RESULTS

In the first six months of 2024, consolidated gross profit was equal to EUR 943.1 million, with an incidence on revenues of 76.7% compared to 74.9% in the same period of 2023. The increase in margin is primarily driven by the positive channel mix, with a higher incidence of the DTC channel at both Moncler and Stone Island.

Selling expenses in the first half of 2024 were EUR 419.3 million, compared to EUR 374.7 million in H1 2023, with a 34.1% incidence on revenues, higher than in the same period of 2023 (33.0%) due to the ongoing shift towards a DTC-led business model. General and administrative expenses were EUR 166.3 million, with a 13.5% incidence on revenues reflecting continuous investments in the organization, compared to EUR 156.9 million in the first half of 2023 (13.8% on revenues). In the first half of 2024, general and administrative expenses included a one-off income of EUR 7.5 million related to an insurance refund received following the December 2021 malware attack.

Marketing expenses were EUR 98.8 million, representing 8.0% of revenues, compared to 8.9% in the first half of 2023. The lower marketing spending in the first half of 2024 vs. H1 2023 (and the related lower incidence on sales) is entirely due to a slightly more-balanced phasing of marketing activities in H1 vs H2 compared to the previous year. Management continues to expect an incidence of marketing expenses on revenues of around 7% at year end, in line with the previous fiscal year.

Depreciation and amortisation, excluding those related to the rights of use recorded in application of IFRS 16, were EUR 60.4 million, compared to EUR 54.6 million in H1 2023.

Group EBIT was EUR 258.7 million with a margin of 21.0%, compared to EUR 217.8 million in H1 2023 with a margin of 19.2%.

In H1 2024, net financial expenses were EUR 1.6 million, compared to EUR 11.3 million in the first half of 2023. The decrease was driven by a higher level of interest income due to higher interest rates and better cash management.

The tax rate in the first half of 2024 was equal to 29.7% compared to 29.6% in H1 2023.

The Group net result was equal to EUR 180.7 million, compared to EUR 145.4 million in H1 2023.

This document contains forward-looking statements, in particular in the sections headed "Business Outlook" and "Significant events occurred after 30 June 2024" relating to future events, the operating income and financial results of the Moncler Group. These statements are based on the Group's current expectations and forecasts regarding future events and, by their nature involve risks and uncertainties since they refer to events and depend on circumstances which may, or may not, happen or occur in the future and, as such, they must not be unduly relied upon. The actual results could differ significantly from those contained in these statements due to a variety of factors, including changes in the macroeconomics and in economic growth and other changes in business conditions, changes in legal and institutional framework (both in Italy and abroad), and many other factors, most of which are beyond the Group's control.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS OCCURRED DURING THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 2024

MONCLER JAPAN

On 28 March 2024 Moncler Japan Corporation acquired from the Japanese shareholder (Yagi Tsusho Ltd) the remaining share of its stake in Moncler Japan Corporation equal to 5.06% of the share capital, for an outlay of EUR 9.3 million. Following this purchase, Moncler, through the subsidiary Industries S.p.A., holds the entire share capital of Moncler Japan Corporation.

DIVIDENDS

On 24 April 2024 the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting approved Moncler's Financial Statements at 31 December 2023 and approved the distribution of a gross dividend of EUR 1.15 per share (EUR 1.12 per share in the previous year). The payment related to this distribution was equal to EUR 303.1 million.

2024 PERFORMANCE SHARES PLAN

On 24 April 2024 Moncler's Board of Directors, following the Shareholders' resolution, approved the implementation of the stock grant plan called the "2024 Performance Shares Plan" and resolved, with the favorable opinion of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, to grant up to a maximum of 1,109,219 shares to 198 beneficiaries – which include Executive Directors and Managers with Strategic Responsibilities – subject to the achievement of the performance objectives at the end of the three-year vesting period.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS OCCURRED AFTER 30 JUNE 2024

No significant events occurred after 30 June 2024.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

The global macroeconomic context is highly complex and volatile, and trends in the luxury goods industry are seeing an ongoing normalisation.

In light of this uncertain landscape and evolving market dynamics, the Group maintains a prudent mindset, focusing on operational flexibility and responsiveness, while continuing to invest in its organization and people to further strengthen its operating execution, aiming to remain on a solid growth path.

These are the main strategic lines of development.

STRENGTHENING OF ALL MONCLER BRAND DIMENSIONS ALL YEAR AROUND. During 2024 Moncler will further reinforce the three dimensions of the brand (Moncler Collection, Moncler Grenoble and Moncler Genius) through distinctive events and focused marketing strategies. With a new extraordinary event in Shanghai in October, Moncler Genius will continue to evolve as a cocreation and re-creation platform, playing a role of brand recruiter, based on the involvement of new talents who will embrace new forms of creativity between design, entertainment, music and sport going well beyond fashion. Moncler Collection will see the celebration in a contemporary approach of other iconic styles that have built the brand's legacy to date through relevant collections and concepts all year around. Moncler Grenoble, the dimension of the brand closest to its mountain DNA, post the extraordinary brand experience held in February 2024 in St. Moritz, will continue to strengthen its awareness, with dedicated marketing initiatives and a wider and more complete performance-oriented collection suitable for all the seasons of the year, always mixing high technical content and style.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE NEXT CHAPTER FOR STONE ISLAND LEVERAGING THE BRAND'S SOLID FOUNDATIONS. 2024 marked the beginning of Stone Island's next chapter of evolution, which was officially opened in January 2024 during the Milan Fashion Week by revealing the new global advertising campaign and presenting the new brand manifesto called "The Compass Inside". The brand will continue powering the momentum built in recent months through a highly articulated marketing and communication plan with activations scheduled for every month of the year. The new communication and brand strategy will further support Stone Island in continuing its evolution to drive worldwide resonance and strengthen its unique positioning, which has its own identity and value matrix rooted in the culture of research and experimentation. The brand will continue its international development and the progressive upgrade of its distribution network, implementing a very selective strategy in the wholesale channel, while further strengthening the DTC one, both physical and online. The planned internalisation of the brand e-commerce platform will be instrumental in unlocking the full potential of the online channel and of the brand's omnichannel strategy.

SUSTAINABLE AND RESPONSIBLE GROWTH. Moncler Group believes in a sustainable and responsible development according to shared values that are reflective of stakeholder expectations and consistent with the Group's long-term strategy. An approach based on the commitment to set increasingly ambitious goals as well as on the awareness that every action has an impact on the society and the environment in which we operate. In 2024 Moncler remains committed to implement the actions and projects necessary to pursue the sustainability objectives published in the 2020- 2025 Plan. The five strategic priorities of the Sustainability Plan are: climate change and biodiversity, circular economy and innovation, responsible supply chain, enhancement of diversity and support for local communities.

1.2. BASIS FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE HALF-YEAR CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.2.1. RELEVANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements as of 30 June 2024 have been prepared in accordance with Art. 154-ter of Legislative Decree 58 of 24 February 1998 ("Testo Unico della Finanza – TUF"), as amended, and in conformity with IAS 34. They do not include all the information that would be necessary for the yearly consolidated financial statements and should be read together with consolidated financial statements as 31 December 2023, which were prepared in accordance with the international financial reporting standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and endorsed by the European Union.

The term "IFRS" is also used to refer to all revised international accounting standards ("IAS"), all interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"), formerly known as the Standing Interpretations Committee ("SIC").

It should be noted that the consolidated income statement, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of financial position, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows are prepared in accordance and are the same as those used in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended 31 December 2023. The following notes to the consolidated financial statements are presented in a summary format and do not include all the information required in an annual set of financial statements. It should be noted, as required by IAS 34, in order to avoid duplicating the information already provided, the notes refer exclusively to the consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of financial position, consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows, whose nature and

changes are essential in order to understand the financial position and results of operations of the Group.

The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements as of 30 June 2024 are made up of the consolidated income statement, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of financial position, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, the consolidated statement of cash flows and the notes thereto. The comparative information included in these consolidated financial statements, as required by IAS 34, compares 31 December 2023 for the consolidated statement of financial position and the half-year ended 30 June 2023 for the consolidated changes in equity, the consolidated statement of income, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and the consolidated statement of cash flows.

1.2.2. PRESENTATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Group presents the consolidated income statement by destination, the method that is considered most representative for the business. This method is in fact consistent with the internal reporting and management of the business.

With reference to the consolidated statement of financial position, a basis of presentation has been chosen which makes a distinction between current and non-current assets and liabilities, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 60 and thereafter of IAS 1.

The consolidated statement of cash flows is prepared under the indirect method.

In accordance with the provisions of IAS 24, related-party transactions with the Group and their impact, if significant, on the consolidated statement of financial position, consolidated income statement and consolidated statement of cash flows are reported below.

The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in thousands of Euros while, unless otherwise indicated, the data contained in the explanatory notes are presented in millions of Euros.

1.2.3. BASIS FOR PREPARATION

The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the measurement of certain financial instruments (i.e. derivative) as required by IFRS 9 and on a going concern basis.

The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in thousand euro, which is the functional currency of the markets where the Group mainly operates.

1.2.4. USE OF ESTIMATES AND VALUATIONS

The preparation of Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes in conformity with IFRS requires that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the reporting date. The estimates and related assumptions are based on historical experience and other relevant factors. The actual results could differ from those estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed periodically and any variations are reflected in the consolidated income statement in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or even in subsequent periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

In the event that management's estimate and judgment had a significant impact on the amounts recognized in the Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements or in case that there is a risk of future adjustments on the amounts recognized for assets and liabilities in the period immediately after the reporting date, the following notes will include the relevant information.

The estimates pertain mainly to the following items of the consolidated financial statements:

  • impairment of non-current assets and goodwill;
  • impairment of trade receivables (bad debt provision);
  • allowance for returns;
  • impairment of inventories (obsolescence provision);
  • recoverability of deferred tax assets;
  • provision for losses and contingent liabilities;
  • lease liabilities and assets for right of use;
  • Incentive systems and variable remuneration;
  • IAS 29 hyperinflation;
  • financial liabilities for the purchase of minority interests;
  • IFRIC 23: uncertainty over income tax treatments.

Impairment of non-current assets and goodwill

Non-current assets include property, plant and equipment, intangible assets with indefinite useful life and goodwill, investments and other financial assets.

Management periodically reviews non-current assets for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. When a review for impairment is conducted, the recoverable amount is estimated based on the present value of future cash flows expected to derive from the asset or from the sale of the asset itself, at a suitable discount rate.

When the recoverable amount of a non-current asset is less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss and the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount determined based on value-in-use calculation or its sale's value in an arm's length transaction, with reference to the most recent Group business plan.

Impairment of trade receivables

The bad debt provision reflects management's best estimate of the probable loss for unrecoverable trade receivables.

Allowance for returns

The allowance for returns reflects management's best estimate of the asset arising from expected product returns and the associated liability for future refunds.

Impairment of inventory

The Group manufactures and sells mainly clothing goods that are subject to changing consumer demands and fashion trends. Inventory impairment represents management's best estimate for losses arising from the sales of aged products, taking into consideration their sale ability through the Group's distribution channels.

Recoverability of deferred tax assets

The Group is subject to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. Judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes in each territory. The Group recognizes deferred tax assets when there is a reasonable expectation of realisation within a period that is consistent with management estimation and business plans.

Provision for losses and contingent liabilities

The Group is subject to legal and tax litigations arising in the countries where it operates. Litigations are inevitably subject to risk and uncertainties surrounding the events and circumstances associated with the claims and associated with local legislation and jurisdiction. In the normal course of the business, management requests advice from the Group legal consultants and tax experts. The recognition of a provision is based on management's best estimate when an outflow of resources is probable to settle the obligation and the amount can be estimated with reliability. In those circumstances where the outflow of resources is possible or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability, the contingent liabilities is disclosed in the notes to the Halfyear Consolidated Financial Statements.

Lease liabilities and assets for right of use

According to IFRS 16 accounting standard, with reference to multi-annual lease agreement, the Group recognises the asset for the right of use and the liability for the lease. The asset for the right of use is initially valued at cost or at the present value of the rental costs provided by the contract, and then subsequently at cost net of accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted to reflect the revaluation of the lease liability.

The Group values the lease liability at the present value of the payments due for unpaid leases at the effective date, discounting them using an interest rate determined taking into account the term of the lease contracts, the currency in which they are denominated, the characteristics of the economic environment in which the contract was stipulated and the credit adjustment.

The lease liability is subsequently increased by the interest accrued on this liability and decreased by the payments due for the lease made and is revalued in the event of a change in the future payments due for the lease deriving from a change in the index or rate, in the event of a change in the amount that the Group expects to pay as a guarantee on the residual value or when the Group changes its valuation with reference to the exercise or otherwise of a purchase, extension or cancellation option.

Lease contracts in which the Group acts as a lessee may provide for renewal options with effects, therefore, on the duration of the contract. Relative certainty that this option will (or won't) be exercised can influence, even significantly, the amount of lease liabilities and right of use assets.

Incentive systems and variable remuneration

For the description of the determination of the fair value of share-based incentive payments for the Moncler Group management, please see paragraph 2.13 of the consolidated financial statements as 31 December 2023.

The accounting policy adopted by the Group provides for the IFRS2 reserve to be released and reclassified as retained earnings when the Board of Directors resolves on the allocation of Moncler Rights to each beneficiary.

IAS 29 Hyperinflation

Furthermore, IAS 29, should have been applied for the Turkish subsidiary starting from the financial statements as at 31 December 2022, because Turkey continued to meet the criteria for a hyperinflationary economy during the half-year. However, the accounting effects of applying that accounting standard are not significant and thus have not been considered in the preparation of this Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements.

Financial liabilities for the purchase of minority interests and IFRIC 23

For an estimate of financial liabilities related to the purchase of minority interests and IFRIC 23: uncertainty over income tax treatments see paragraphs 2.20 and 2.16 of the consolidated financial statements as 31 December 2023.

1.3. IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ISSUES

The Group defined a climate strategy aimed at reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, with the intention of positively contributing to the global goal of combating climate change, in line with the requirements of the Paris Agreement on climate. This strategy, integrated into the Group's business model, includes medium and long-term objectives.

In particular, the Group committed to reducing absolute CO2e emissions by 70% within Scope 1 and Scope 2 by 2030 (in line with the "1.5°C" ambition) and by 52% within Scope 3 (in line with the "Well-Below 2°C" ambition) per unit of product sold compared to 2021.

Furthermore, Moncler Group committed to achieving net zero emissions (Net Zero1 ) along the entire value chain by 2050.

These objectives have been formally approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)2 and deemed consistent with the contribution required of companies to limit the maximum increase in global temperature compared to pre-industrial levels.

The main actions undertaken to achieve these objectives include:

use of electricity from renewable sources (both purchased and self-generated);

1 Achieving Net Zero involves the overall balance between greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions produced and those absorbed by ecosystems, through neutralisation mechanisms. Specifically, to contribute to Net Zero, companies must reduce emissions and neutralise residual emissions.

2 Promoted by CDP, United Nations Global Compact, World Resources Institute (WRI) and World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), the Science Based Targets initiative establishes and promotes best-practice in defining science-based targets, as well as assessing companies' objectives.

  • implementation of energy efficiency activities (Building Management System BMS, lighting systems, more efficient heating and cooling, improvement of building thermal insulation, and promotion of environmental standards for buildings);
  • adoption of low-impact environmental vehicles in the Group's car fleet;
  • obtaining LEED certifications for new stores3 and all new corporate buildings.

For Scope 3 emissions:

  • the progressive introduction of "preferred" materials in collections;
  • the promotion of regenerative agriculture projects;
  • the decarbonization of the supply chain through energy efficiency measures and the adoption of renewable energy sources.

The actions described above are reflected and will be reflected in the Group financial statements in terms of new investments and recurring operations (e.g., purchase of origin guarantee certificates, purchase of certified raw materials, etc.).

The impact of climate change is also evaluated in relation to estimates and assessments made in the financial statements. Medium-term impacts are taken into account in the business plan projections, which form the basis for the impairment test.

As of the reporting date, there are no significant effects on the figures presented in the Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements.

4. COMMENTS ON THE MAIN ITEMS OF THE CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT

4.1. REVENUES

REVENUES BY BRAND

(Euro/000) 1H 2024 % 1H 2023 %
Total revenues 1,230,163 100.0% 1,136,590 100.0%
Moncler 1,041,277 84.6% 935,027 82.3%
Stone Island 188,886 15.4% 201,563 17.7%

In the first half of 2024, Moncler Group reached consolidated revenues of EUR 1,230.2 million up 8.2% compared to the same period of 2023. These results include Moncler brand revenues of EUR 1,041.3 million and Stone Island brand revenues of EUR 188.9 million.

ANALYSIS OF MONCLER BRAND REVENUE

In the first six months of 2024, Moncler brand revenues were EUR 1,041.3 million, an increase of 11,4% compared to EUR 935.0 million in the same period of 2023.

REVENUES BY REGION

Sales are broken down by region as reported in the following table:

Revenues by region
(Euro/000) 1H 2024 % 1H 2023 % Variation % Variation
Asia 512,995 49.3% 456,771 48.9% 56,224 12.3%
EMEA 380,578 36.5% 340,651 36.4% 39,927 11.7%
Americas 147,704 14.2% 137,605 14.7% 10,099 7.3%
Total 1,041,277 100.0% 935,027 100.0% 106,250 11.4%

In Asia (which includes APAC, Japan and Korea) H1 revenues were EUR 513.0 million, up 12% compared to the first half of 2023 driven by strong growth registered in Japan, supported mostly by tourists, as well as by the positive performance of the Chinese mainland, notwithstanding the tough comparable base and the increase in Chinese consumption abroad. Korea and the rest of APAC showed softer trends.

EMEA recorded revenues of EUR 380.6 million in H1 2024, +12% compared to H1 2023 supported by solid tourist purchases as well as positive local consumption. Chinese, American and Korean customers remained the strongest contributors to tourist purchases in the region.

In the first half of 2024, revenues in the Americas increased by 7% compared to H1 2023 with the positive performance registered in the DTC business offset by the decline in the wholesale channel.

REVENUES BY DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL

(Euro/000) 1H 2024 % 1H 2023 %
Total revenues
of which:
1,041,277 100.0% 935,027 100.0%
- Wholesale 165,528 15.9% 177,533 19.0%
- DTC 875,749 84.1% 757,494 81.0%

Revenues per distribution channels are broken down as follows:

In the first half of 2024, the DTC channel recorded revenues of EUR 875.7 million, up 19% compared to the first half of 2023. All three regions recorded positive growth with EMEA outperforming largely due to the contribution from tourist consumption. The growth in the DTC channel in the first half was penalised by the weak performance of the direct online channel across all regions.

The wholesale channel recorded revenues of EUR 165.5 million in the first half of 2024, a decline of 7% compared to H1 2023 mainly impacted by the ongoing efforts to upgrade the quality of the distribution network.

REVENUES ANALYSIS OF THE STONE ISLAND BRAND

In the first half of 2024, Stone Island brand revenues reached EUR 188.9 million with respect to EUR 201.6 million in the same period of 2023.

REVENUES BY REGION

Revenues by region
(Euro/000) 1H 2024 % 1H 2023 % Variation % Variation
Asia 46,684 24.7% 38,806 19.3% 7,878 20.3%
EMEA 128,856 68.2% 145,645 72.3% (16,789) (11.5)%
Americas 13,346 7.1% 17,112 8.5% (3,766) (22.0)%
Total 188,886 100.0% 201,563 100.0% (12,677) (6.3)%

Sales are broken down by region as reported in the following table:

Asia (which includes APAC, Japan and Korea) reached EUR 46.7 million revenues in the first half of 2024, growing 20% compared to H1 2023 mainly driven by the strong performance of Japan and solid growth in APAC. Trends in Korea remained softer than other areas of Asia.

In H1 2024, EMEA, which continues to be the most important region for the brand, recorded revenues of EUR 128.9 million, a decrease of 12% compared to H1 2023 with the strong double-digit performance in the DTC channel not enough to fully offset the decline in the wholesale channel.

In the first half of 2024, revenues in the Americas region were down 22% compared to the first half of 2023. The positive performance of the DTC channel in the semester was more than offset by the decline in the wholesale channel, which continued to be impacted by challenging trends mostly among department stores, as well as by the ongoing efforts in upgrading the quality of this channel.

REVENUES BY DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL

(Euro/000) 1H 2024 % 1H 2023 %
Total revenues
of which:
188,886 100.0% 201,563 100.0%
Wholesale 96,277 51.0% 127,847 63.4%
DTC 92,609 49.0% 73,716 36.6%

Revenues per distribution channels are broken down as follows:

In the first six months of 2024, the DTC channel revenues reached EUR 92.6 million, +26% compared to H1 2023, representing 49% of total H1 2024 revenues thanks to a positive contribution from all regions, with Asia and EMEA outperforming.

In the first half of 2024, the wholesale channel recorded revenues of EUR 96.3 million, down 25% compared to H1 2023 impacted by challenging market trends in this channel and the strict volume control adopted to continuously improve the quality of the network.

4.2. COST OF SALES

In the first half of 2024, cost of sales increased by EUR 1.5 million in absolute terms (+0.5%), from EUR 285.6 million in the first half of 2023 to EUR 287.1 million in the first half of 2024. Cost of sales incidence on revenues decreased from 25.1% in the first half of 2023 to 23.3% in the first half of 2024.

The items Brands, Other intangible fixed assets with undefined useful life and Goodwill have not been amortised, but have been tested for impairment by management at least annually when the year-end financial statements are prepared.

The business performance recorded in the first half 2024 are consistent with the assumptions made when testing the recoverability of the value of Moncler and Stone Island goodwill and of Moncler and Stone Island brands during the preparation of the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as at 31 December 2023 and there are no significant variations in the other parameters used for the test. Therefore, no potential indicators of impairment were identified and no specific impairment tests were performed on these items for the purposes of preparing these Consolidated Half-Year Financial Statements.

Finally, it is also underlined that the Company's stock market capitalisation, based on the average price of Moncler share in the first half 2024, shows a significant positive difference with respect to the Group net equity, implicitly confirming the value of the goodwill.

With reference to the tax audit related to the 2016 financial year, please note that, in order to limit the effects of a possible double taxation, the Mutual Agreement Procedures have been activated in the countries involved.

5.16. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

Changes in shareholders' equity for the first half of 2024 and the comparative period are included in the consolidated statements of changes in equity.

As at 30 June 2024 the subscribed share capital constitute by 274.805.954 shares was fully paid and amounted to EUR 54.961.190,80, with a nominal value of EUR 0.20 per share.

As at 30 June 2024 4.199.510 treasury shares were held, equal to 1.5% of the share capital, for a total value of EUR 163.1 million.

The legal reserve (integrated with the legal values when allocating the 2023 profit) and premium reserve pertain to the parent company Moncler S.p.A.

In the first half 2024 the parent company distributed dividends to the Group Shareholders for an amount of EUR 311.2 million of which EUR 303.1 paid in the first half 2024 (EUR 302.5 million distributed in 2023, of which EUR 300.3 paid in the first half 2023).

The increase in share capital, carried out free of charge through the use of available reserves, refers to the issue of shares in execution of the Performance Share Plans.

The change in the IFRS 2 reserve is due to the accounting treatment of the performance shares plans, i.e., to the recognition of the figurative cost for the period relating to these plans and the reclassification to retained earnings of the cumulative figurative cost of the plans already closed.

The change in retained earnings mainly relates to the allocation of 2023 result, the dividends distribution, the above-mentioned reclassification of the IFRS 2 reserve and the adjustment to the market value of the financial liabilities to non-banking third parties.

The FTA reserve includes the effects of the initial application of the IFRS 16.

Other reserves include other comprehensive income comprising the translation reserve referred to foreign entities, the reserve for exchange rate risks hedging and the reserve for actuarial gains/losses. The translation reserve includes the exchange differences emerging from the translation of the financial statements of the foreign consolidated companies. The hedging reserve includes the effective portion of the net differences accumulated in the fair value of the derivative hedging instruments. Changes to these reserves were as follows:

6. SEGMENT INFORMATION

For the purposes of IFRS 8 "Operating segments", the activity carried out by the Group can be identified in the operating segments referring to the Moncler business and the Stone Island business. However, these operating segments were aggregated into a single reportable segment, consistent with the core principle of IFRS 8, as the segments have similar economic characteristics and share common features, i.e.:

  • the nature of the products;
  • the nature of the production processes;
  • the type of customers;
  • the distribution channels.

7. SEASONALITY

Moncler Group's results are influenced by various seasonal factors, linked to its business model and to the industry in which the Group operates.

Over the years, the Moncler brand has preserved its inherent connotation and heritage, linked to the mountains and cold weather, and therefore a prevalence of items associated with the winter season. The outerwear, especially the duvet coat, continues to be an important element of the brand's product range although this has been extended over the years to other product categories and the spring/summer collections.

Given the importance of outerwear, and of winter products in general, Moncler's DTC revenues are more concentrated in the first and mainly fourth quarters of each financial year. In the wholesale channel, revenues are concentrated in the third quarter, when third-party retailers are invoiced for

Autumn/Winter collections and, at a lower level, in the first quarter, when third-party retailers are invoiced for Spring/Summer collections.

The Stone Island brand, on the other hand, has developed a balanced presence across the different seasons, while still generating a significant portion of its turnover through the wholesale channel. This implies that the first and third quarters are the two main quarters for the Stone Island brand, when the Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter collections are shipped to wholesale customers.

Given the significant seasonality of the Group's business, substantially linked to the seasonality of the Moncler brand, and the possible influence of exogenous factors on quarterly results, such as weather conditions, individual interim results may not make a uniform contribution to annual results and may not be directly comparable with those of previous quarters.

Finally, the revenues trend and the dynamics of the production cycles have an impact on net working capital and net debt. Group's cash generation peaks in March and December, linked to the cash flow of the Moncler brand, while the months of June and July are characterised by high cash absorption.

8. COMMITMENTS AND GUARANTEES GIVEN

8.1. COMMITMENTS

The Group does not have significant commitments arising from operating lease contract or other contractual cases that do not fall within the scope of IFRS 16 (mainly related to temporary stores and pop-up stores with a term of less than one year).

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

As the Group operates globally, it is subject to legal and tax risks which may arise during the performance of its ordinary activities. Based on information available to date, the Group believes that at the date of preparation of this document there are no further potential liabilities in addition to those already recorded in the provisions accrued in the Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements.

REPORT ON REVIEW OF THE HALF-YEARLY CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

To the Shareholders of Moncler S.p.A.

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying half-yearly condensed consolidated financial statements of Moncler S.p.A. and subsidiaries ("Moncler Group"), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as of June 30, 2024, consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the six month period then ended, and the related explanatory notes. The Directors are responsible for the preparation of the half-yearly condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with the International Accounting Standard applicable to the interim financial reporting (IAS 34) as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-yearly condensed consolidated financial statements based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the criteria recommended by the Italian Regulatory Commission for Companies and the Stock Exchange ("Consob") for the review of the half-yearly financial statements under Resolution n° 10867 of July 31, 1997. A review of half-yearly condensed consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISA Italia) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
