…exceeding expectations

2023

Surpassed previous Revenue guidance of approximately €7 million, primarily driven by a very strong Q4 performance of HOST, EICMA, and the ECTRIMS congress (multiple sclerosis related congress)

  • Exceeded previous EBITDA guidance by approx. €9 million, primarily due to the higher Revenue contribution, cost-saving initiatives, and improved performance in China
  • Outperformed previous Net Cash guidance by €23 million, mainly attributable to the higher EBITDA contribution and improved net working capital dynamics

EXCEEDING BOTH GUIDANCE AND CONSENSUS

...confidence on 2024 ahead of 2024-2027 Strategic Plan launch

2024
PREVIEW

Building on strong 2023 results and positive feedback from planned 2024 events, we are optimistic about our
financial outlook
for the current year. Despite the less favorable calendar seasonality of even years, we expect
EBITDA to range between €65 -75m by 31 December 2024

2024 will see the return of the major itinerant event CPHI (> 100k sqm expected; twice the size of the last edition),
confirming Fiera Milano's ability to attract large international events and the biennial MCE –
Mostra
Convegno
Expocomfort
(> 80k sqm expected)
NEW STRATEGIC
PLAN The upcoming Strategic Plan 2024-2027 presentation on 8 April 2024, will be a pivotal moment to articulate Fiera
2024-2027 Milano medium-to-long-term strategic vision
ON APRIL 8TH and outline development initiatives for the coming years

...with ESG always at the top of the agenda

BUILDING MOMENTUM WITH ESG AT THE FOREFRONT

  • Defined a new Sustainability Plan, integrated in the Strategic Plan 2024-2027
  • Established quantitative GHG reduction targets for 2027 and 2030 in the Decarbonization Plan 2030
  • Expansion of the photovoltaic system (26k panels) with the aim of reaching a capacity of 17 MWp by 2024 (generating 20-25% energy purchasing from renewable sources)
  • Approved the new Sustainability Report 2023 (to be released on 29 March 2024)

    • EBITDA reached €13.4m in 2023, down by -0.6% despite revenue growth mainly due to higher venue costs, energy prices, and security costs
    • Worth noting the different calendar in 2023 with the absence of events that took place in 2022 instead such as EADV (Dermatology and Venereology), ESCRS (Cataract and Refractive Surgeons), ESHRE (Human Reproduction and Embryology)

Key Growth drivers:

4

  • Positive calendar effect: presence of biennial HOST and multi-annual ITMA and Plast exhibitions
  • Good general performance: annual events of the fashion industry (Milano Unica, LineaPelle and HOMI Fashion & Jewels) and multi-annual events (ITMA, Plast)
  • Increase in the sale of services
  • Growing congress activity: mainly for the EULAR (Rheumatology) and EAU (Urology) medical-scientific congresses
  • Positive result of equity method accounted companies: Deutsche Messe JV in China and Fiere di Parma contribution

EBITDA 2023 of €97.1.m:

  • + €38.7m vs 2022 (+66.3% growth YoY)
  • 34.2% EBITDA Margin

Key trends:

  • Better performance (following Revenues positive trend) and more favorable mix of events on the calendar
  • Positive result of equity method accounted companies: Deutsche Messe AG JV in China (above pre-covid performance levels) and of Fiere di Parma
  • Higher structural and operating costs: mainly due to the increase in electricity prices and higher one-off personnel costs related to company reorganization

Financial management: positive change mainly resulting from the higher income relating to the use of liquidity, as well as the improvement in the fair value of the units in ESG mutual funds.

Net result for the period from continuing operations amounts to €29.0m (up by €34.7m compared to €5.8m loss in 2022), while net result for the period from discontinued operations amounts €16.5m and is referring to the higher values that emerged with the transfer of the business unit relating to the "Tuttofood" event relating to the acquisition of 18.5% of Fiere di Parma. Consolidated Net result presents a profit of €45.5m compared to a loss of €5.8 m in 2022

▪ The increase mainly refers to "Other non-current assets" following the purchase of a stake equal to 18.5% of the share capital of Fiere di Parma SpA. This effect was almost totally offset by the decrease in receivables from the Parent Company for tax consolidation, as well as from the decrease in the Right of use assets

▪ The increase in liquidity of €25.8m is mainly due to the dynamics of advances and the increase in debt to suppliers following the concentration of events and conferences held at the end of the year

THE NEW DECARBONIZATION PLAN TO 2030

Standard trasversali ▪ Fiera Milano Group made a commitment in its strategic guidelines to constantly contain emissions into the atmosphere, defining targets for the reduction of CO2 emissions which have been formalized in the medium and long-term Decarbonization Plan of Fiera Milano

▪ With the definition of the new Decarbonization Plan 2030, the Fiera Milano Group wants to set the target of reducing its GHG Scope 1 + Scope 2 (market based) emissions by at least 60% by 2027 and 80% by 2030 compared to the 2023 baseline

▪ The decarbonization targets described above will be achieved mainly through the following areas of intervention:

AREA OF INTERVENTIONS

Improvement of environmental management controls and processes by obtaining ISO 14001 environmental certification by 31/12/2024.

Progressive increase in the share of energy deriving from renewable sources: at least 40% in 2024; 60% in 2025; 65% in 2026 and 70% in 2027, achievable through:

  • a.Upgrading of the photovoltaic system on the roofs of the Rho exhibition center (26,000 photovoltaic panels – the largest rooftop photovoltaic system in Europe) with the aim of reaching a capacity of 17 MWp by 2024, in order to constantly contribute to c. 25-28% of Fiera Milano's energy needs
  • b.Greater use of electricity purchases through Guarantee of Origin (GO), moving from c. 20% in 2023 to 60% in 2027 of green purchases certified at origin at a Group level.

Energy efficiency interventions through the creation of a single cooling system by 2030 by Fondazione Fiera Milano.

Carbon footprint measurement with LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) methodology of the main exhibitions of Fiera Milano to start mapping - at individual event level - of the Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 emission sources and implement specific efficiency actions.

During 2025 the Fiera Milano Group will start measuring Scope 3 GHG emissions at Group level.

THE DACARBONIZATION PLAN

EMPOWERING THE LARGEST ROOFTOP PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEM IN EUROPE

  • Thanks to the collaboration between the Fondazione Fiera Milano and A2A through the creation of Fair-Renew, Fiera Milano was able to increase its environmental commitment by transforming the roofs of the Rho exhibition center into a clean energy power plant. Between 2021 and 2022, a massive photovoltaic system was inaugurated by Fair-Renew, with a power of 8.2 MWp, equipped with approximately 26,000 solar panels. This initiative now meets approximately 20% of Fiera Milano's energy needs, establishing itself as a symbol of ecosustainable progress
  • In response to the challenge of increasing energy costs, an ambitious expansion of the photovoltaic system was launched in the first half of 2023. This expansion project took advantage of every available space, from the roofs of the exhibition pavilions to the new Cargo 2 warehouse and the multi-storey car parks. 2023 marked the second phase of this journey towards sustainability, with the addition of 3.9 MWp of power, extending green energy to Halls 2-4, the roof of Cargo 2 warehouse and the PM1 and PM2 car parks.
  • Looking to the future with determination, thanks to the continuous support of Fondazione Fiera Milano and A2A, 2024 will see the realization of the third phase of expansion, with a further addition of 3.9 MWp. This development will bring the total capacity to approximately 17 MWp, consolidating Fiera Milano's role as guardian of one of the largest rooftop photovoltaic systems in Europe.
  • The project is part of the broader Group Decarbonization Plan to 2030.

SUTSAINABILITY AWARDS AND RECOGNITIONS

  • In 2023 Fiera Milano was awarded by ELITE (Borsa Italiana), Kon Group, Forbes, Azimut and ALTIS with the "Sustainability Award Top ESG score" recognition.
