* EBITDA is represented by operating profit before provisions and depreciation. EBITDA thus defined is a measure used by management to monitor and evaluate the operational performance and is not identified as an accounting measure under both Italian Accounting Principles and IFRS and therefore should not be considered an alternative measure for evaluating the Group's results. Since EBITDA is not regulated by applicable accounting standards, the criteria used by the Group might not be consistent with that adopted by others and therefore may not be comparable.

We are closing the first quarter of 2024 with results in line with our expectations, reflecting not only the global slowdown of the wholesale market, but also the process of transformation of the Group, especially in relation to the Moschino brand. The debut of the new creative direction of the brand, entrusted to Adrian Appiolaza, received very positive feedbacks which we hope to be able to fully capitalize with the Pre-Spring 2025 collection, which will be unveiled with a co-ed show during Milan Men's Fashion Week in June. In the meantime, we hope that the international instability that has characterized the last year will weaken, allowing the recovery of markets of primary importance for our Group.
