doValue is one of the main players in Southern Europe providing services to banks and investors for the management of loans and real estate assets (Servicing) with assets under management equal to about €137 billion as at September 2022 (Gross Book Value).
The structure of the Group at September 30, 2022, as shown in the following diagram, reflects the organic and external growth and diversification of doValue over more than 20 years of operations.

The parent company, doValue S.p.A., a servicing company governed by article 115 of the T.U.L.P.S.,1 and its subsidiaries carry out servicing activities for "Performing Loans" (PL), Early Arrears, "Unlikely to Pay" (UTP), "Non Performing Loans" (NPL) and Real Estate assets, and provide ancillary services for business information and master Servicing, operating in a specific business area or geographical market.
doValue was created from a combination, in 2016, of the two largest Italian servicers: UCCMB, originally part of the UniCredit Group, and Italfondiario (now doNext), active since 2000 in partnership with leading specialised investors.
From July 2017, the doValue Group is listed on the Milan Stock Exchange (MTA).
Since 2018 doValue went through a strong expansion and deep diversification phase in the Southern Europe market, starting a Group transformation and integration process.
In 2019 doValue completes the acquisition of an 85% stake in the capital of Altamira Asset Management, a prominent european player in the credit and real estate asset management sector, with operations in Spain, Portugal, Cyprus and Greece.
In 2020 doValue acquires 80% of the share capital of Greek servicing company FPS from Eurobank, today doValue Greece.

The summary results and financial indicators are based on accounting data and are used in management reporting to enable management to monitor performance.
They are also consistent with the most commonly used metrics in the relevant sector, ensuring the comparability of the figures presented.

The doValue Group provides services to Banks and Investors over the entire life-cycle of loans and real estate assets.
doValue is Southern Europe's leading servicer, with about €137 billion (Gross Book Value) in assets under management and a track record spanning over more than 20 years. Its business model is aimed at all Banks and Investors in the market, and "asset light", which means that it does not require direct investments in loan portfolios.
doValue's services are remunerated under long term contracts based on a fee structure that includes fixed fees based on the volume of assets under management and variable fees linked to the performance of servicing activities, such as collections from NPL receivables or the sale of customers' real estate assets or the number of real estate and business information services provided.
The Group provides services in the following categories:
doValue, in its capacity as Special Servicer, has received the following ratings which have been confirmed at February 2022: "RSS1-/CSS1-" by Fitch Ratings, and "Strong" by Standard & Poor's, which are the highest ratings assigned to Italian operators in the sector. They have been assigned to the two companies since 2008, before any other operator in this sector in Italy. doNext, as Master Servicer, received an MS2+ rating from Fitch Ratings in February 2022, which is an indicator of high performance in overall servicing capacity.
In July 2020, doValue received the BB Corporate credit rating, with "Stable" outlook from Standard & Poor's and Fitch.
This rating was confirmed by both agencies for doValue's €265.0 million and €300.0 million senior bonds maturing in 2025 and 2026 respectively. In July 2022, Fitch confirmed the BB rating and improved the outlook to "Positive".

Gross Book Value EoP: indicates the book value of the loans under management at the end of the reference period for the entire scope of the Group, gross of any potential write-downs due to expected loan losses.
Collections for period: used to calculate fees for the purpose of determining revenues from the servicing business, they illustrate the ability to extract value from the portfolio under management.
LTM collections Stock/GBV (Gross Book Value) EoP Stock: the ratio between total gross LTM collections on the Stock portfolio under management at the start of the reference year and the end-period GBV of that portfolio.
Staff FTE/Total FTE Group: the ratio between the number of employees who perform support activities and the total number of full-time employees of the Group. The indicator illustrates the efficiency of the operating structure and the focus on management activities.
EBITDA and EBT attributable to Parent Company shareholders: together with other relative profitability indicators, they highlight changes in operating performance and provide useful information regarding the Group's financial performance. These data are calculated at the end of the period.

Capex: investments in tangible and intangible assets.
EBITDA - Capex: calculated as EBITDA net of investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets and, together with other relative profitability indicators, it highlights changes in operating performance and provides an indication on the Group's ability to generate cash.
Net Working Capital: this is represented by receivables for fees invoiced and accruing, net of payables to suppliers for invoices accounted for and falling due in the period.
Net Financial Position: this is calculated as the sum of cash, cash equivalents and highly-liquid securities, net of amounts due to banks for loans and bond issues.
Leverage: this is the ratio between the net financial position and pro-forma EBITDA for the last 12 months to take account of significant transactions from the start of the reference year. It represents an indicator of the Group's debt level.

As at September 30, 2022, the Group's Managed Portfolio (GBV) in the five core markets Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece and Cyprus stood at €137.3 billion, a decrease of about 8% compared to the December 31, 2021 figure of €149.5 billion. The new contracts and flows related to long-term contracts acquired during the first nine months of the year thus partially offset the effect of the offboarding of the NPL Sareb portfolio in Spain. In this regard, it should be noted that the offboarding of the NPL portion (roughly €10 billion) was completed on July 1, 2022, and the offboarding of the remaining REO portion (roughly €11 billion) was completed in early October and it will be included in the year-end results.
These data confirm, on the one hand, the effectiveness of the strategic decision taken in previous years through adequate geographic diversification and, on the other, the significant appeal of the Group on the various reference markets. The figures for the period also reflect a process of portfolio divestments by some Italian and Spanish banks, which affected the Group's portfolio. From this perspective, it is even more appreciable to note a substantial continuity in values compared to the end of the previous year, even net of receipts.
The following chart shows the geographical distribution of the GBV: in particular for each country the share managed as at September 30, 2022 is highlighted.

The evolution of the Managed Portfolio, which includes only onboarded portfolios, in the first nine months of 2022 was characterised by contracts related to new customers totalling €8.3 billion, of which approximately €5.7 billion related to contracts signed in 2021 in the Hellenic Region, €0.5 billion in Greece related to mortgage loans disbursed to undertakings ("Neptune Project"), €0.8 billion in Cyprus related to guaranteed corporate and SME loans ("Marina Project"), as well as a further €1.3 billion essentially related to a GACS securitisation in Italy.
In addition to the flows listed above, a further €1.7 billion comes from existing customers onboarded through flow contracts.

With regard to decreases in GBV, disposals totalling €5.0 billion and write-offs totalling €3.2 billion were recorded for the period.

The Portfolio under Management is to be considered in further growth with respect to the picture already described due to new mandates acquired and currently in the on-boarding phase for a total amount of approximately €4.0 billion, related to portfolios under management by leading Greek and Spanish banks and an investor in Greece.

Group revenue during the period under review amounted to €3.9 billion, essentially unchanged from the same figure for the first nine months of the previous year (€4.0 billion). The geographical breakdown of collections is as follows: €1.2 billion in "Italy", €1.6 billion in "Iberia" and €1.1 billion in the Hellenic Region.

The third quarter of 2022 passed in an international context influenced above all by the repercussions of the international political crisis that erupted last February with the outbreak of hostilities in Ukraine. In addition, it should be noted that the European macro-economic environment has progressively deteriorated due to the ongoing inflationary cycle that has slowed down the general economic recovery.
In this overall framework, the doValue Group recorded Gross Revenues of €425.5 million in the first nine months of 2022, an increase of 10% compared to the €385.9 million in the first six months of 2021. Geographically, there was a greater contribution from the Italian and Hellenic regions, which more than offset the decrease in the Iberian area.
NPE and REO servicing revenues assets amounted to €390.3 million (€355.8 million as at September 30, 2021), an increase of 10%. At the product segment level, NPE revenues amounted to €326.2 million (€297.0 million in the first nine months of 2021), representing an increase of approximately 10%; while REO revenues totalled €64.1 million and, compared to €58.8 million in the same period of the previous year, showed a substantial 9% increase.
Co-investment revenues amounted to €1.1 million, compared to €4.2 million in September 2021. In 2021, these revenues related to gain on the Relais securitization whose mezzanine and junior notes had been purchased in the last few days of 2020 and resold in the first half of February 2021.
The contribution of Ancillary and other revenues is more significant and amounts to €34.1 million, up on €25.9 million in September 2021 and it is mainly due to income from data processing and provision services and other services connected with servicing activities, such as due diligence, master and structuring services, and legal services, as well as services offered in Rental, Real Estate Development and diversified Advisory and Portfolio Management activities.
These revenues accounted for 8% of total gross revenues for the period, whereas in the comparative period their share was around 7%.

| Net revenues | 380,013 | 338,832 | 41,181 | 12% |
Net revenues rose by around 12% to €380.0 million, compared to €338.8 million of the previous year.
NPE Outsourcing fees recorded an overall decrease of 28% (€16.1m in 2022 and €22.4m in 2021), linked to an increased use of internal resources in recovery activities. Please note that the percentage weight on the respective revenues decreases for the domestic scope from 7% to 5%, for the Hellenic scope from 3% to 2%, while it remains stable for the Iberian scope. At the consolidated level, the proportion of NPE fee and commission expenses on related revenues decreased from 7% to 5%.
REO Outsourcing fees were up and amounted to €19.5 million (€16.9 million in 2021), mainly related to assets under management by the subsidiary Altamira Asset Management, consistent with business performance.
Ancillary Outsourcing fees amounted to €9.9 million, compared to €7.7 million in 2021.
Overall, total commission expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased slightly, amounting to 10.7% for 2022 and 12.2% for the comparative period, while in absolute terms total commissions payable amounted to €45.5 million (€47.0 million as at September 2021).
Operating expenses amount to €230.5 million compared to €222.9 million in September 2021. The ratio to gross revenues stood at 54% compared to 58% in 2021, thus denoting an excellent recovery of efficiency compared to the first nine months of the previous year. The increase, in absolute value, is mainly related to the operating costs inherent to the reorganisation projects in the Iberia Region, which were lower than budgeted.

On the other hand, the domestic scope did not increase significantly either in absolute terms (+€0.4 million) or in relative terms as a percentage of revenues (stable at 17%), while the Greek scope, despite an increase in absolute terms of €3.0 million, recorded a lower percentage of revenues of 10% compared to 12% in September 2021.
Staff expenses amounted to €158.6 million, thus basically stable compared to €159.4 million in 2021. This item decreased as a percentage of finalised revenues to 37% from 41% in September 2021.

In line with the previous years, the operating expenses for the period include a number of non-recurring items ("NRIs"), which are shown as adjustments to EBITDA to facilitate comparison between periods and the identification of structural profitability for the Group.
These non-recurring items amounted to €2.4 million (€0.2 million in 2021) and mainly refer to consulting charges for extraordinary transactions.
EBITDA excluding non-recurring items amounted to €151.9 million (€116.1 million in September 2021) with a margin of 36% on revenue, up from 30% in the comparative period.
Including non-recurring expenses, EBITDA amounted to €149.6 million, up from €115.9 million in September 2021.
The Group's EBIT stands at €94.6 million compared to €49.5 million in the same period of the previous year.
EBT is equal to €72.1 million compared to €24.5 million in the comparative period. This item includes the financial costs linked to the two bond issues, the fair value delta on the notes of the Cairo securitization, Romeo SPV securities and other minor items related to the application of IFRS 16.

In addition to the non-recurring items included in EBITDA (€2.4 million), EBT includes additional nonrecurring items totalling €6.1 million, which are related to redundancy incentive costs that affected all

regions (especially in Spain connected with the exit of the Sareb portfolio), items related to an ongoing arbitration for a tax claim in Spain, and income from insurance reimbursements.
Net write-downs on property, plant, equipment and intangibles amounted to €47.9 million, compared to €58.0 million in the previous year.
This item mainly includes the amortisation of the Altamira and doValue Greece servicing contracts for a total of €24.8 million and which are classified in the balance sheet as intangible assets.
The total balance also includes the amortisation of right-of-use assets deriving from the recognition of leases in accordance with IFRS 16 for a total of €8.4 million. The remainder of amortisation primarily concerns software licenses connected with technology investments made by the Group during the period aimed at upgrading the IT platform. The change from the previous year is due to lower amortisation connected to servicing contracts that included Sareb in 2021 (fully amortised in the first half of 2022), as well as lower amortisation recorded on a specific contract connected to the "Mexico" operation.
Net Provisions for risks and charges amounted to €7.3 million, compared to €8.9 million as of September 2021, and are mainly related to provisions for redundancy incentives, as well as to a prudential provision on the payable Earn-out.
Interest and commission income from financial activities amounted to €21.3 million, down from €25.7 million in September 2021, when the €4.6 million economic effects of the closure of the financing line replaced by the second bond issue were recognised.
The item in question therefore mainly reflects the costs of the two bond issues to service the acquisition process carried out in Spain and Greece as implementation of the Group's internationalisation strategy, as well as the cost related essentially to the use of a revolving facility by the Spanish subsidiary, which has been now reimbursed.

Including non-recurring items, the Profit for the period attributable to the Shareholders of the Parent Company is €39.2 million, compared to the €12.8 million in the same period of the previous year.

doValue's international expansion into the broad Southern European market with first the acquisition of Altamira, and then doValue Greece, prompted Management to evaluate and analyse its business with a geographic segmentation.
This classification is tied to specific factors of the entities included in each category and to the type of market. The geographical regions thus identified are: Italy, Hellenic Region and Iberia.
Based on these criteria, the following table shows the revenues and EBITDA (excluding non-recurring items) for the period for each of these business segments.
Gross revenue recorded in the first nine months of 2022 amounted to €425.5 million (€385.9 million as at September 2021) and EBITDA excluding non-recurring items amounted to €151.9 million (€116.1 million as at September 2021). The Italian segment contributes 31% of the Group's gross revenue, the Hellenic Region segment 45%, and the Iberian segment 24%.
The EBITDA Margin, excluding non-recurring items, on the Italy and Iberia segments came to respectively 26% and 2%, lower than the Hellenic Region, which posted a figure of 60%.

Financial Assets showed a balance of €58.5 million, a decrease of €3.5 million compared to the value recorded as at December 31, 2021 and amounting to €62.0 million.
The item is broken down in the following table.

The financial assets "At fair value though profit or loss" recorded an aggregate decrease of €2.8 million, mainly due to a decrease in the Debt securities component, mostly originating from valuation effects (about €2 million) and the redemption of the Romeo and Mercuzio ABS securities (€0.3 million), as well as a reduction in CIU units (€1.2 million), due to the cancellation and distribution of units of the reserved closedend alternative investment fund Italian Recovery Fund (formerly Atlante II), partially offset by its revaluation.
The category "At fair value through OCI", which includes investments of minority interests in the Brazilian fintech company QueroQuitar S.A. and in the Irish proptech company BidX1, shows a reduction of €0.6 million related to the update of the fair value compared to December 31, 2021, the effect of which is offset in the first nine months of 2022 with the positive evaluation of derivative contracts related to the investment. The component of financial assets "At amortised cost" does not show any changes worthy of note; the item mainly includes receivables from customers attributable to the company doNext and arising from the use of financial resources originated by a limited recourse loan for a specific business and classified in other financial liabilities.
Property, plant and equipment, at €34.1 million, remain substantially unchanged from December 31, due to the joint effect of depreciation and purchases for the period, both amounting to €10.7 million respectively. Purchases in the period included about €6 million related to new rights of use in application of IFRS 16.
Intangible Assets decreased from €545.2 million to €529.6 million, a decrease of €15.6 million due to the combined effect of reductions of €36.7 million in amortisation and depreciation for the period and increases of €15.6 million in respect of software purchases (including the portion classified as assets under development and payments on accounts), as well as €6.1 million in respect of additional capitalised costs on the Frontier (SLA) portfolio.

In particular, the most significant portion of intangible assets derives from the last two acquisitions made by the Group, respectively referring to Altamira Asset Management and its subsidiaries at the end of June 2019 and the business combination of doValue Greece concluded in June 2020.
In relation to the consolidation of Altamira, intangible assets are composed as follows:

With respect to the consolidation of doValue Greece, intangible assets may be analysed as follows:
The Tax Assets detailed below show a balance of €150.8 million at September 30, 2022, a decrease of €2.2 million compared to the balance at December 31, 2021 due to the reversal of deferred tax assets totalling €9.7 million, partially offset by new DTAs recognised for €3.5 million and a higher VAT and withholding tax receivable included in the "Other tax receivables" for €4.7 million.

As at September 30, 2022, Financial liabilities - due to banks/bondholders increased by €13.8 million, from €568.5 million to €582.3 million, mainly due to the €25 million borrowing of a short-term credit line by the subsidiary doValue Greece, which was repaid on November 1, 2022; this increase was partially offset by the repayment of the revolving facility made by the Spanish subsidiary Altamira (€7.5 million). At September 30, 2022, the residual debt at amortised cost for the two bonds issued is as follows: - 2020-2025 bond with a nominal value of €265.0 million, interest rate 5.0%: €259.6 million;

| Total | 73,481 | 76,017 | (2,536) | (3)% |
"Lease liabilities" include the discounted value of future lease payments, in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 16.
The liability for the "Earn-out" refers (i) to the Altamira operation in the amount of €17.5 million, which represents a portion of the acquisition price and (ii) to the acquisition of doValue Greece for €5.7 million that is related to the achievement of some EBITDA targets within a ten-year time frame and the first payments of which will not be due before 2024.
The liability for "Put option on non-controlling interests" relates to the option for the purchase of residual non-controlling interests in Altamira. The amount recognised at September 30, 2022 refers to the fair value of the option renegotiated and extended by an additional 24 months in July 2021, with the right to exercise only at the end of the two-year period, i.e., end of June 2023.
At September 30, 2022, "Other financial liabilities" include €4.5 million for a limited recourse loan relating to the above-mentioned loan allocated for a specific business.
Provisions for risks and charges decreased from a balance of €44.2 million at the end of 2021 to €37.2 million at September 30, 2022. The reduction of €7.0 million is attributable for €7.5 million to the "Other" component of the table below, which includes a provision that emerged with the definition of the PPA connected to the acquisition of doValue Greece and determined following a more precise interpretation of certain clauses in the Service Level Agreement signed between doValue Greece and Eurobank connected to a particular type of fee ("Curing Fee") and pursuant to IFRS 15 in relation to variable fees.

"Debts related to servicing contracts" decreased by €11.3 million due to the €22.4 million release of the liability to Eurobank related to the "advance indemnity fee" connected to the securitisation of the Mexico portfolio, following the definition of a contractual addendum between the parties. This decrease was partially offset by the recording of the contractual liability related to the Frontier SLA (€5.9 million). "Amounts due to personnel" decreased by €6.2 million due to the settlement of the 2021 incentive scheme,
while "Accrued expenses/deferred income and other debts" decreased mainly due to the release of the accrued portion of the first nine months of 2022 of the deferred income on the prepayment of servicing fees (€7.5 million).
Net Equity attributable to the Shareholders of the Parent Company amounted to €161.1 million, up from €156.6 million as at December 31, 2021; the increase stems from the positive result for the period

achieved by the Parent Company (€39.2 million) and the net increase of €4.8 million in the stock option reserve recognised in accordance with IFRS 2, offset by the distribution of dividends (€39.5 million).

The figure for the period was €140.1 million, compared to €132.6 million in December 2021. Compared to the previous quarter, net working capital showed a significant improvement of about €30.1 million (in June it amounted to €170.1 million). The amount, benchmarked against revenue in the last 12 months, thus stands at 23%, in line with the figure recorded at the end of 2021 (23%) and significantly better than both the 29% in the first two quarters of 2022 and the 27% in September 2021.
In determining this indicator, account must also be taken of the macroeconomic context within which the activities were carried out, characterised by an unstable European financial framework, and subject to fluctuations linked to international events.

At September 30, 2022, the Net financial position amounted to €422.8 million, compared to €401.8 million at the end of 2021 (€432.0 million at September 30, 2021).
The period was characterised by the start of planned investments of approximately €13.7 million distributed in all the countries in which the Group operates, by the working capital dynamics which, as described above, gave a big impulse to cash generation in the third quarter, as well as by the payment of taxes for €25.4 million (largely attributable to the Hellenic Region, as well as domestic) and financial charges for €20.2 million.
Cash therefore amounted to €159.5 million, thus substantially in line with the €166.7 million at the end of 2021. In addition to this, at the end of September 2022, the Group had €130.5 million in available credit lines, bringing total liquidity (understood as cash plus available lines) to €290.0 million.
The Net current financial position is positive at €130.5 million (€149.1 million at the end of 2021 and €118.6 million at September 2021), indicating a balanced overall balance sheet structure, especially thanks to the second bond issue in July 2021.
With respect to its debt structure, it should be noted that doValue or an affiliate may, from time to time, depending on market conditions and other factors, repurchase or acquire an interest in our outstanding indebtedness, whether or not such indebtedness trades above or below its face amount, for cash or in exchange for other securities or other consideration, in each case in open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions or otherwise.

Operating Cash Flow for the period was positive at €63.9 million (up by €48.2 million on September 2021). This figure was positively impacted by the profit margins of the period, with EBITDA at €149.6 million and investments of €13.7 million, equal to roughly 2% of gross revenues in the past 12 months (LTM). The cash-conversion of the operating cash flow with respect to EBITDA is equal to 91%, confirming the Group's significant ability to convert its operating margins into cash, despite the above-mentioned investment levels.
The net working capital trend, as already reported in the relevant section, is essentially flat over the nine months, while during the third quarter it experienced an absolutely positive trend, generating about €30 million of liquidity.
The item "Changes in other assets/liabilities" was impacted by the reversal in revenue related to the advance of fees that occurred last year in favour of the subsidiary doValue Greece, as well as by the effects related to the accounting of redundancy incentives.
Corporate Income Tax paid amounted to €25.4 million and financial charges paid amount to €20.2 million (€24.4 million in the third quarter of 2021), which reflected the average cost (at a fixed rate) recorded following the bond issuance in support of the Group's international growth process. Thanks to these transactions, the Group replaced the credit lines with a pre-established repayment plan, including interest and principal, with instruments with bullet repayment profiles for the principal and half-yearly repayment of coupons. This resulted in a greater balance of sources, extending deadlines.
The above movements thus result in a positive Free Cash Flow of €18.3 million compared to €17.7 million in September 2021.
The item "(Investments)/disinvestments in financial assets" is positive for €2.4 million, and mainly includes a collection of the units of the reserved alternative investment fund Italian Recovery Fund (€21.1 million as of September 2021 mainly referring to the gain realised for the Relais securitisation).
During the period in question, €39.5 million in dividends were approved for distribution to the Group's shareholders, of which €36.8 million had already been received by the payees as at September 30, 2022 (as at the third quarter of 2021, this disbursement amounted to €18.9 million).
Net cash flow of the period was negative for €21.0 million, substantially stable compared to September 2021, when it was negative for €21.4 million.
During the first nine months of 2022, the Group added approximately €10.0 billion to its Gross Book Value, comprising €8.3 billion of new mandates (substantially related to the Frontier Project in Greece, already awarded in 2021 and on-boarded in February 2022, the Marina Project in Cyprus and two GACS securitisations in Italy won and on-boarded in 2022) and €1.7 billion from existing flow contracts (deriving in particular from contracts with Santander, Eurobank and UniCredit).
Since the start of the year to date, the Group has been awarded about €5.8 billion of new contracts (about €4.2 billion in the Hellenic Region, about €1.3 billion in Italy and €300 million in Iberia), to which the €1.7 billion from flow contracts must be added, totalling about €7.5 billion.
On January 25, 2022, doValue's Board of Directors approved the Business Plan 2022-2024, which was unveiled to the market on January 26, 2022 during the company's Capital Markets Day. The 2022-2024 Business Plan confirms doValue's efficient business model as a leading independent and capital light operator in the credit servicing sector in Southern Europe. The vision for "doValue 2024" mainly revolves around the Company's ability to lead the evolution of the credit servicing industry by investing in technology and through its ability to strengthen strategic and long-term partnerships with banks and investors in a broader target market.
On February 24, 2022, Sareb (an entity owned by the Spanish government and established in 2012 with the objective of managing and disposing of distressed assets that had been transferred from the four nationalised Spanish financial institutions) announced its decision to engage two new servicers for the 2022-2025 contract, and therefore not renewing the contract with doValue and the other 3 servicers currently engaged in the management of the Sareb portfolio. The NPL part of the Sareb portfolio (€10 billion) was off-boarded on July 1, 2022, and the REO portion of the Sareb portfolio (€11 billion) was off-boarded on October 1, 2022.
Sareb's decision entails a reorganisation of Altamira's activities with the aim of operating on an adequate scale and preserving the profitability of the business in Iberia. Altamira is expected to be affected by a nonrecurring cost of maximum €15 million related to the reorganisation of personnel currently allocated to the management of the Sareb portfolio, to be incurred mainly in the second two quarters of 2022.
This outcome had already been anticipated as a possibility by doValue, as described in the 2022-2024 Business Plan presented by the Group on January 26, 2022. Given the highly competitive nature of the process conducted by Sareb over the past few months (which focused on the level of commissions payable by Sareb to servicers), the new contract would not have contributed positively to the Group profitability. Therefore, Sareb's decision does not have a material impact on the financial targets of the Business Plan 2022-2024 and the Group's overall strategic direction.
doValue's growth in Spain in 2023 and 2024, particularly in terms of EBITDA, will be driven by increased value extraction from the current GBV (excluding Sareb), new servicing agreements and new revenue streams. doValue confirms its targets for the Iberian Peninsula in terms of EBITDA for 2024 (€35-40 million), and the Group's broader financial targets as presented on January 26, 2022.
On February 24, 2022, Russia began a military invasion of Ukraine which led to a bitter conflict with the Ukrainian population and military armed forces. As a consequence, the Western countries, particularly the USA and the European Union, implemented various financial and economic sanctions against Russia. These sanctions, together with an increased geopolitical risk, have caused a considerable rise in volatility in the financial markets, which is still ongoing.
The doValue Group's direct exposure to Russia and Ukraine is negligible.
In early April 2022, doValue, through its subsidiary doValue Greece, was awarded a new servicing mandate representing an additional Gross Book Value of approximately €500 million ("Neptune Project").
In 2020, an entity affiliated with funds managed by the Fortress Investment Group had acquired a portfolio from Alpha Bank for a Gross Book Value of approximately €1.1 billion by assigning a temporary servicing mandate to the Greek servicer CEPAL. With Neptune Project, doValue will assume the role of long-term servicer for the management of approximately 50% of the initial €1.1 billion portfolio. The onboarding of the portfolio was completed in April 2022. The portfolio comprises non-performing mortgage loans granted to corporates and small and medium enterprises in Greece.
The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of doValue (the "Shareholders' meeting") was held on April 28, 2022.
Specifically, the Shareholders:
In May 2022, BCC Banca Iccrea completed a €650 million securitisation of non-performing loans backed by GACS guarantees. Seventy-one banks participated in the operation, of which 68 belonged to the BCC Iccrea Group, joined by Banca Valsabbina, Banca di Credito Popolare and Cassa di Risparmio di Asti. doValue assumed the role of master servicer and special servicer of the divested portfolio.
doValue signed in May 2022, a memorandum of understanding ("MoU") with an affiliate of Cerberus Capital Management ("Cerberus"), a global leader in alternative investments, for the exclusive management of a portfolio of non-performing loans originated in Cyprus with a Gross Book Value of approximately €2.2 billion ("Sky Project").
The MoU was executed by Altamira Asset Management Cyprus, a subsidiary of doValue.
The portfolio related to the Sky Project was originated by Alpha Bank Cyprus and consists of secured corporate, SME and retail loans disbursed to more than 7,000 borrowers. During the first part of 2021, Alpha Bank decided to divest this portfolio and, in February 2022, reached an agreement with Cerberus for the divestiture (closing is expected by the end of 2022, and conditional on regulatory approvals). doValue will assume the role of servicer of the portfolio from the closing until the run-off of the portfolio and will also assist in the interim management of the portfolio until the closing.
With Sky Project, doValue further diversifies its business by bringing Cerberus on board as a new customer.
In May 2022, doValue was admitted to trading for its ordinary shares on the Euronext STAR Milan segment of the Euronext Milan market.
Already admitted to trading on the MTA of Borsa Italiana (now Euronext Milan) since July 14, 2017, doValue's ordinary shares began trading on June 3, 2022 on the Euronext STAR Milan segment of the Euronext Milan market, which is dedicated to companies with excellent attributes in terms of transparency, communication, liquidity and corporate governance (already largely met by doValue).
As part of its admission to the Euronext STAR Milan segment, doValue engaged Mediobanca - Banca di Credito Finanziario S.p.A. as Specialist, in accordance with the Rules and Instructions of Borsa Italiana.
In June 2022, UniCredit completed a €1.1 billion securitisation of non-performing loans backed by GACS guarantees. About €500 million of the €1.1 billion, represents additional GBV for doValue as the remainder was already under management by the company.
doValue and doNext assumed the role of special servicer and master servicer respectively of the divested portfolio.
The onboarding of the portfolio was completed in the second quarter of 2022.
In line with the 2022-2024 Business Plan presented to the market on 26 January 2022, the subsidiary Altamira Asset Management formally created in the first part of 2022 a business unit dedicated to the management of Non-performing Loans related to Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Spain and is investing significantly in its development.
The SME business unit employs about 40 professionals and currently manages about €3 billion Gross Book Value, a level that is expected to grow in the coming quarters. The current GBV under management is mainly composed of Non-performing Loans (NPLs), but the development plan of the SME business unit envisages expanding the business into the Unlikely to Pay (UTP) and Early Arrears categories.
The strengths of the SME business unit are its widespread presence throughout the territory (reflecting the dissemination of the SME segment), the fact that the unit is fully integrated with the doValue Group in terms of technology and IT systems, and the ability to leverage the Group-wide best practices already developed in Italy and Greece.
In line with the 2022-2024 Business Plan presented to the market on January 26, 2022, the subsidiary Altamira Asset Management formally established a new business unit in Spain dedicated to offering legal services to banks and institutional investors. The move is in line with the plan to further grow and diversify the portfolio of products and solutions offered by Altamira Asset Management to its existing and potential clients in Spain.
The Legal Services Business Unit employs more than 70 highly-qualified and specialised professionals covering all of Spain. The Legal Services business unit will provide support to both banks and institutional investors for the entire bankruptcy proceedings (including assistance with the preparation of legal documents, assistance with legal due diligence, trial management, auction management, out-of-court trial management, bankruptcy counselling and assistance with the further outsourcing of specialised legal counselling requirements).
In July 2022, Fitch Ratings upgraded the Company's outlook to "Positive" (from "Stable") and confirmed the Long-Term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) at "BB".
DoValue's €265m and €300m senior bonds maturing in 2025 and 2026 were also confirmed at 'BB'.

According to Fitch Ratings, the "Positive" outlook reflects the expectation of continued growth of doValue's business and further diversification across customers and geographies.
On July 29, 2022, doValue, through its subsidiary doValue Greece, signed an agreement with the National Bank of Greece ("NBG") in relation to the management of a Greek portfolio consisting mainly of impaired mortgage loans (NPLs) with a Gross Book Value of approximately €1.0 billion ("Frontier II Project"). The agreement is conditional on completing the securitisation of the portfolio under the so-called Hellenic Asset Protection Scheme (HAPS), which is expected to be finalised in the second half of 2022. NBG awarded the Frontier II Project to doValue based on the confidence and track record established during the Frontier I Project process. The Frontier II Project is another important step for the Group in the implementation of the 2022-2024 Business Plan and represents another milestone for doValue in the consolidation of its position as a leading independent servicer in Greece.

In October 2022, doValue, through its subsidiary Altamira Asset Management, entered into a major agreement with Sareb for the provision of legal services.
Following the reassignment of the servicing contract in February 2022, Sareb decided to use qualified operators for legal support relating to its asset portfolio, as a specialised service separate from the commercial management of these same assets. Under the terms of the agreement, doValue will manage in legal terms the portfolio that was previously managed by its subsidiary Altamira Asset Management, and which includes approximately 40% of Sareb's legal proceedings.
The specific services provided for in the agreement with Sareb include preparing the documentation with a view to initiating specific legal proceedings, and also monitoring and controlling the recovery up to disposal (including preparing and monitoring auctions). The agreement provides for handling more than 4,500 legal proceedings.
Virgo Project, a €450 million GBV secondary portfolio disposal in Greece to a fund invested into by the EOS Group, was completed in the month of October 2022.
The portfolio has been carved out from the Frontier I HAPS securitisation vehicle which has been managed by doValue since the beginning of February 2022. The disposal, which was completed in the context of volatile market conditions, allows doValue to accelerate its collection activity in Greece whilst retaining the long-term servicing mandate on the €450 million GBV portfolio acquired by a fund invested into by the EOS Group.
The transaction also allows to further diversify doValue's institutional investor client base.
Altamira Asset Management, a subsidiary of doValue, has been granted the management of a portfolio of non-performing loans by funds managed by affiliates of Fortress Investment Group ("Fortress") in Spain. The Gross Book Value (GBV) of the portfolio is approximately €300 million and the onboarding is expected by the end of 2022.
The portfolio, which has been recently sold by Santander to funds and accounts managed by Fortress, is composed of about 3,400 residential mortgages granted to around 2,000 individuals and is secured towards residential properties located in the main cities in Spain.
The new servicing mandate is an important step for the Group in the growth and diversification paths of its Spanish business, a key driver of the Business Plan 2022-2024 for the Iberia region and therefore for the Group as a whole.
In addition, the €300 million portfolio represents the first sizeable NPL portfolio investment of Fortress in the Spanish market after it set up its local office in Madrid in May 2022.

With respect to the current geopolitical crisis caused by the war in Ukraine, the Group continues to carefully monitor the consequences already underway: increase in inflation, slow down in global growth and greater volatility in financial markets and the increase in interest rates.
However, at the date of approval of this Report, given the high degree of uncertainty associated with potential developments of this crisis, it is difficult and probably premature to estimate the actual short-, medium- and long-term impact on the Group's operations. In general, recessionary macroeconomic scenarios could lead to a decrease in the recoverability rate of the current assets under management by the Group. However, at the same time, they could lead to new volumes of impaired loans by banks, the management of which, if outsourced, could result in an increase, in the medium term, of the assets managed by the Group.
As regards the current economic situation related to the effects of COVID-19, despite the operational continuity of doValue operations in all its markets and the gradual improvement of market conditions, the Group continues to carefully monitor the reduced activity of the legal system and public services in general which, thanks to electronic means, have resumed operations remotely, together with decisions on bank moratoria and developments in the real estate sector, which can affect the time needed to manage positions and collections.
The significant geographical, product and customer diversification and the flexibility of costs, in particular outsourcing costs and the employee incentive plan represent additional factors for the mitigation of the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
On the other hand, more difficult macroeconomic conditions are likely to lead to an increase in the production of NPEs in the wake of an increase in the default rate. In particular, the pipeline of potential servicing agreements for 2022 across Southern Europe is currently estimated by doValue at around €19 billion and is likely to grow further in the coming months.
Finally, the doValue business model should be able to respond to the various phases of the economic cycle with the expansion of assets under management or collections, respectively, during the contraction or expansion phases of the cycle, in line with the Group's mission to support banks, investors, companies and individuals in all steps of credit management, fostering the sustainable development of the financial system.
In consideration of the activities it performs and the results achieved, the financial position of the doValue Group is appropriately scaled to meet its needs.
The financial policy pursued is aimed at fostering the stability of the Group, which in view of its operations does not currently or prospectively intend to engage in speculative investment activity.
With regard to the main risks and uncertainties, the current financial markets' situation and the consequences of any economic and financial effects deriving from the spread of COVID-19 still involve elements of uncertainty, including in the event of more stable macroeconomic conditions than in the past. The current geopolitical crisis caused by the war in Ukraine continues to have serious repercussions on financial markets and global economic growth, causing an acceleration in inflation and a slowdown in global growth, as well as an increase in financial market volatility. As already described in the previous paragraph, at the date of approval of this Interim Report, given the high degree of uncertainty linked to potential evolutionary scenarios of the current crisis, it is difficult and probably premature to estimate the actual short, medium and long term impacts on the Group's activities as recessionary macroeconomic scenarios could lead to a decrease in both the recoverability rate and an increase in the medium term of the assets under management by the Group.
In order to express an opinion on the going concern assumption used to prepare this Consolidated Interim Report at September 30, 2022, the risks and uncertainties to which the Group is exposed were carefully assessed:
From the analyses carried out and on the basis of the assumptions reported above, no uncertainties have emerged in relation to events or circumstances which, considered individually or as a whole, could give rise to doubts regarding the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.
As at September 30, 2022, 25.05% of the shares of the Parent Company doValue were owned by its largest shareholder, Avio S.a r.l, the reference shareholder, a company incorporated in Luxembourg, affiliated to the Fortress Group, which in turn was acquired by Softbank Group Corporation in December 2017. A further 3.22% of doValue shares are held by other investors similarly connected with Softbank Group Corporation, which thereby holds an overall stake of 28.27%.
As of September 30, 2022, the remaining 71.73% of the shares were placed on the market and 1.13% consisted of 902,120 treasury shares, valued at cost, for a total of €4.3 million held by the Parent Company. The reference shareholder does not exercise any management or coordination powers over doValue pursuant to Article 2497 et seq. of the Civil Code, as it does not issue directives to doValue and, more generally, does not interfere in the management of the Group. Accordingly, the strategic and management policies of the doValue Group and all of its activities in general are the product of the independent selfdetermination of the corporate bodies and do not involve external management by Avio.
The Parent Company doValue exercises its management and coordination powers over its direct subsidiaries as provided for in the legislation referred to above.
At September 30, 2022, doValue held 902,120 treasury shares, equal to 1.13% of the total share capital. Their book value is €4.3 million and they are recognised as a direct reduction of shareholders' equity under "Treasury shares" pursuant to article 2357-ter of the Italian Civil Code.
The ordinary shareholders' meeting of April 28, 2022 revoked the authorisation to purchase and sell treasury shares conferred by said meeting to doValue's Board of Directors by means of resolution of April 29, 2021. At the same time, a new authorisation to purchase treasury shares in one or more transactions was conferred, according to the same terms and conditions pursuant to the previous shareholders' meeting resolution, i.e. up to 8,000,000 ordinary shares of doValue S.p.A., equal to 10% of the total, for a period of 18 months from the shareholders' meeting approval.
During the period the Group continued to invest in a number of technological innovation projects, which are expected to bring a competitive advantage in the future.
The business of the doValue Group is linked to people and the enhancement and development of professional skills are strategic drivers to ensure innovation and sustainable growth. doValue continues to invest in its people through policies aimed at enhancing and developing human resources, with the aim of consolidating a climate of corporate satisfaction.
At the end of the third quarter of 2022, the number of Group employees was 3,237, compared to 3,153 at the end of 2021.
In compliance with the provisions of the "Rules for Transactions with Related Parties" referred to in Consob Resolution no. 17221 of March 12, 2010, as amended, any transaction with related parties and connected persons shall be defined in accordance with the procedure approved by the Board of Directors, whose most recent update was approved at the meeting held on June 17, 2021.
This document is available to the public in the "Governance" section of the company website www.doValue.it.
With reference to paragraph 8 of art. 5 - "Public information on transactions with related parties" of the Consob Regulation cited above, it should be noted that:
C. in the first nine months of 2022, the intangible assets recognised in respect of Frontier Project increased by €6.1 million. This transaction meets the definition of transaction of greater importance as per point a) of the Directors' Report of the Group at December 31, 2021. This is due to a contract provision included in the agreement signed in 2021 and is subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions that, at September 30, 2022, are deemed highly probable.
We inform you that doValue S.p.A. has adopted the simplified rules provided for in Articles 70, paragraph 8, and 71, paragraph 1-bis, of the Consob Issuers Regulation no. 11971/1999, as subsequently amended, and has therefore exercised the option to derogate from compliance with the obligations to publish the information documents provided for in Articles 70, paragraph 6, and 71, paragraph 1, of that Regulation on the occasion of significant mergers, spin-offs, capital increases through the contribution of assets in kind, acquisitions and sales.
In application of Consob Communication no. DEM/6064293 dated July 28, 2006, Shareholders' equity and the Parent Company's result are reconciled below with the related consolidated amounts.

These interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements as at September 30, 2022 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting. In accordance with paragraph 10 of mentioned IAS 34, the Group has opted to provide condensed consolidated financial statements.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not provide all the information required in the annual consolidated financial statements. For this reason, the interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements must be read together with the consolidated Financial Statements as at December 31, 2021.
Although the Group has defined the half-year period as the intermediate reference period for the purposes of applying the aforementioned international accounting standard IAS 34 and the definition of the interim financial report indicated therein, these interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements as at September 30, 2022 have been drawn up in compliance with this standard, in view of its possible inclusion in the documentation to be prepared for extraordinary transactions.
The preparation, the measurement and consolidation criteria and the accounting standards adopted to prepare these interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements are compliant with the accounting standards adopted in the preparation of the consolidated Financial Statements as at December 31, 2021, with the exception of the adoption of new or amended standards of the International Accounting Standards Board and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee as shown in the paragraph "New accounting standards". The adoption of these amendments and interpretations did not have significant impacts on the Group's financial position or result.
These interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements are accompanied by the Certification of the Financial Reporting Officer pursuant to Article 154-bis of Legislative Decree 58/1998.
The interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements are prepared using the euro as the accounting currency, in accordance with the provisions of Art. 5(2) of Legislative Decree No 38/2005, and consists of:
and are accompanied by the Directors' Interim report on Group operations.
The amounts stated are expressed in thousands of euros unless otherwise specified.
These Financial Statements have been prepared in application of the framework established by IAS 1 and the specific accounting standards approved by the European Commission and illustrated in the Section "Main items of the financial statements" of these Illustrative Notes.
The interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements were prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with the provisions of IAS 1, and in compliance with the principles of accrual accounting, the principles of relevance and materiality of accounting information and the prevalence of economic substance over legal form and with a view to fostering consistency with future presentations.
The criteria adopted in these interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements as at September 30, 2022 for the recognition, classification, measurement and derecognition of assets and liabilities and the recognition of costs and revenues have not been updated from those adopted in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.
No exceptions were made to the application of IAS/IFRS accounting standards.

In the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2022, the Directors consider the going concern assumption to be appropriate since, in their opinion, despite the presence of the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the continuation of the complex economic scenario following the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and its variants, as well as the governmental and EU interventions and contrast measures adopted by the various countries in response to the two issues, no uncertainties have emerged related to events or circumstances that, considered individually or as a whole, could raise doubts as to the company's ability to continue as a going concern. The assessment took into account the Group's equity, financial position as well as the outlook of the operations, despite the uncertainties related to the continuing emergency situation; the possible presence of events or conditions linked to the climate, which may have an impact on the Group as a going concern was also assessed, also noting the absence of such cases.
Please also refer to the specific paragraph of the Directors' Interim Report on Group Operations.
The application of accounting policies sometimes involves the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts recorded in the financial statements and the disclosures regarding contingent assets and liabilities. For the purposes of the assumptions underlying estimates, we consider all information available at the date of preparation of the financial statements and any assumptions considered reasonable in the light of past experience and current conditions in the financial markets.
More specifically, estimation processes were adopted to support the book value of certain items recognized in the interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements at September 30, 2022, as required by accounting standards. These processes are essentially based on estimates of future recoverability of the values recognized and were conducted on a going concern basis. These processes supported the book values recognized as at September 30, 2022. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed regularly.
In view of the presence of uncertainty in the macroeconomic and market environment, the assumptions made, even if reasonable, might not hold in future scenarios in which the Group may operate. Accordingly, future results may differ from the estimates made for the purpose of preparing the financial statements, with the consequent probable need to make adjustments that currently cannot be foreseen or estimated to the book value of the assets and liabilities recognized in the financial statements. In addition, the economic effects deriving from the COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainties of the future macroeconomic framework in which the Group will operate, also taking into account the consequences related to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, have required a careful analysis and weighting of the new economic context in the valuation models of the recoverable value of the Group's assets. These estimates and valuations are therefore difficult and inevitably involve elements of uncertainty, even in the presence of stable macroeconomic conditions.
The following Sections discuss the key accounting policies for the purposes of providing a true and fair representation of the Group's financial position and performance, both with regard to the materiality of the values in the financial statements and the considerable judgement required in performing the assessments.
Sales revenues associated with servicing contracts for the recovery of receivables managed under mandate are recognized on an accruals basis based on the activities carried out by the Group, using IT procedures and complex accounting processes that take account of the different contractual terms of each mandate. Servicing agreements contain numerous clauses specifying the rights and duties of the Group in relations with the participating clients, which can generate income on the one hand and contingent liabilities on the other connected with the possibility of non-performance of contractual obligations.
The amount of the estimated variable consideration is included in whole or in part only to the extent that it is highly probable that when the uncertainty associated with the consideration is subsequently resolved, there will be no significant downward adjustment to the amount of cumulative revenue recognized.
At end of the period, revenues accrued that have not yet been manifestly accepted by the customer are recognized. Depending on the terms of contract and the established practice, that acceptance may take the form of the issuance of an invoice or an explicit notice.
In addition, any certain or contingent liabilities must be prudentially determined in order to assess compliance with the obligations set out in the servicing agreements, taking due account of natural differences in interpretation of contractual clauses in the context of actual recovery operations.
In the presence of financial instruments not listed on active markets or illiquid and complex instruments, it is necessary to adopt appropriate valuation processes that require the use of a certain degree of judgement concerning the choice of valuation models and the related input parameters, which may sometimes not be observable on the market.
A degree of subjectivity is present in the valuation on whether it is possible to observe or not certain parameters and the consequent classification in correspondence with the levels of fair value hierarchy. With particular reference to valuation methods and the unobservable inputs that may be used in fair value measurements, please see the specific Section "Information on fair value".
The Group has significant deferred tax assets mainly arising from temporary differences between the date on which certain business costs are recognized in the income statement and the date on which the same costs can be deducted. Deferred tax assets are written down to the extent that they are deemed unrecoverable given the outlook for performance and the resulting expected taxable income, taking due account of tax legislation, which allows those assets to be converted into tax credits under certain conditions, regardless of the Group's ability to generate future profits. In the "Assets" section on tax assets and tax liabilities in these Illustrative Notes, information is provided on the nature and the assessments conducted with regard to the recognition of deferred tax assets.
The complexity of the situations that underline the existing disputes, along with the difficulties in the interpretation of applicable law, makes it difficult to estimate the liabilities that may result when pending lawsuits are settled. The valuation difficulties concern what may be due and how much time will elapse before liabilities materialize and are particularly evident if the procedure launched is in the initial phase and/or its preliminary investigation is in progress.
Information about the Group's main risk positions related to legal disputes (revocatory action and pending lawsuits) and tax disputes, is provided in the "Liabilities" section of the Illustrative Notes that deals with Provisions for risks and charges.
At least on an annual basis, upon preparing the annual Financial Statements, the absence of lasting impairment losses on intangible assets is verified. This impairment test is usually conducted by determining the value in use or the fair value of the assets and verifying that the book value of the intangible asset is less than the greater of the respective value in use and the fair value less costs to sell.
Impairment testing for cash generating units (CGUs), to which almost all intangible assets with a definite life and goodwill have been attributed, is conducted with reference to value in use obtained through the application of the Discounted Cash Flow Model (DCF), on the basis of which the value of a CGU is determined through the sum of its prospective cash flows, discounted using a specific rate. A similar procedure is used to estimate the recoverability of the values recognized for active long-term servicing contracts, which assess the business plans of the portfolios under management in order to check their consequent capacity to generate adequate cash flows.
However, note that the parameters and information used to check the recoverability of intangible assets, including goodwill (in particular the cash flow forecast for the various CGUs, as well as the discount rates used) are significantly influenced by macroeconomic conditions and market developments as well as the behavior of counterparties, which could change unpredictably.
If the recoverable value of the assets undergoing impairment testing is determined on the basis of the associated fair value, it should also be noted that the significant and persistent volatility shown by the markets and the intrinsic difficulties in forecasting contractual cash flows mean that we cannot rule out the possibility that the valuations based on parameters drawn from the same markets and on contractual cash flow forecasts may subsequently prove not to be fully representative of the fair value of the assets.
With reference to the intangible assets recognized, it should be noted that these assets are mainly measured on the basis of the definitive Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) of the two business combinations concluded in the past few years; i.e., the acquisition of control of Altamira Asset Management S.A. (Altamira) and its subsidiaries in June 2019 and that of Eurobank FPS (now doValue Greece) concluded in June 2020. The intangible asset arising from the payment by doValue Greece of a consideration for the acquisition of
the right to be appointed as Servicer of the "Frontier" contract was also measured.

The Group, in application of the internal policies in force on this matter, carried out a verification of the internal and external trigger events on the intangible assets deriving from the PPAs of the subsidiaries Altamira and doValue Greece, as well as on the aforementioned Frontier contract and on the goodwill.
The results of the trigger tests determined the need to subject the Santander contract to the Altamira PPA side and the Cairo and Frontier contracts for doValue Greece to an impairment test. However, there was no need to subject the goodwill to an impairment test.
The impairment test on the three contracts mentioned was carried out with reference to the related net book values, as resulting at the accounting date as of September 30, 2022 depending on the update of the amortizations for the period, calculated in an amount corresponding to the direct margin of each individual asset recorded in the period.
For the purposes of impairment testing, the forward-looking information determined in accordance with the Group's 2022-2024 Business Plan approved by the Board of Directors on 25 January this year was taken into consideration, which includes the most recent scenario assumptions gathered by the subsidiaries, one considering the trend of the pandemic and the estimated effects that this has entailed and will entail in the future for the NPL servicing market in general.
The methodology used for the tests is consistent with that adopted in the last consolidated half-yearly report as at June 30, 2022, to which please refer for a complete description.
The comparison between the recoverable value of the three contracts tested and their residual net book value at the reference date did not determine any write-downs; therefore, as of September 30, 2022, the result of the impairment test carried out as of June 30, 2022 on all intangible assets was confirmed and which had led to the recording of a write-down of €0.6 million on one of the contracts pertaining to Altamira.
As regards the methodological approach to the impairment test, please refer to the Accounting Policies in the section "Other matters - estimate of impairment losses of intangible assets" of the annual consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2021. It should also be noted that, for the purposes of estimating the recoverable value of intangible assets acquired through business combinations, doValue adopted the valuation models used in the PPA for consistency.
The recognition of business combinations involves allocating the difference between the acquisition cost and the net book value to the assets and liabilities of the acquiree. For most of the assets and liabilities, the difference is allocated by recognizing the assets and liabilities at their fair value. Any unallocated remainder is recognized as goodwill if positive; if negative, it is recognized in profit or loss as revenue. In the process of allocating the cost of the business combination, the doValue Group uses all available information; however, this process implies, by definition, complex and subjective estimate elements. For information on the Group's business combinations, please refer to the specific Section "Business combinations relating to company enterprises or business branches".
The preparation of the interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements as at September 30, 2022 drew on the accounts as at the same date of the companies included in the scope of consolidation reported in the table presented at the end of this Section.
The accounts as at September 30, 2022 of the companies included in the scope of consolidation were reclassified and adjusted appropriately to take consolidation requirements into account and, where necessary, align them with the Group accounting policies.
All of the companies in the scope of consolidation use the euro as their currency of account and, accordingly, no translations of foreign currency amounts have been necessary.
The following Section shows the consolidation principles adopted by the Group in preparing the interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements as at September 30, 2022.
Entities in which doValue holds direct or indirect control are considered subsidiaries. Control over an entity is obtained when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and at the same time has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. In order to ascertain the existence of control, the following factors are considered:
It is generally presumed that holding a majority of voting rights gives the investor control over the investee. When the Group holds less than a majority of voting rights (or similar rights), it considers all relevant facts and circumstances to determine whether it controls the investee, including:
The Group reconsiders whether or not it has control over an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there have been changes in one or more of the three elements relevant to the definition of control. The consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control and ends when the Group loses control.
The book value of equity investments in companies consolidated on a line-by-line basis held by the Parent Company is eliminated - with the incorporation of the assets and liabilities of the investees - against the corresponding portion of shareholders' equity attributable to the Group.
Assets and liabilities, off-balance-sheet transactions, income and charges, as well as profits and losses occurring between companies within the scope of consolidation are fully eliminated, in accordance with the consolidation methods adopted.
The assets, liabilities, revenues and costs of the subsidiary acquired or sold during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which the Group obtains control until the date on which the Group no longer exercises control over the company.
The difference between the amount received for the subsidiary and the book value of its net assets (including goodwill) at the same date is recognized in the income statement under "Profit (loss) from equity investments" for companies subject to line-by-line consolidation. The shareholding that may be retained must be recognized at fair value.
For companies included within the scope of consolidation for the first time, the fair value of the cost incurred to obtain control over the investee, including transactions costs, is measured as of the acquisition date.
If the disposal does not involve a loss of control, the difference between the amount received in the disposal of a portion of a subsidiary and the associated book value of the net assets is recognized with a balancing entry in shareholders' equity.
IFRS 3 is the reference accounting standard for business combinations. The transfer of control of a business (or an integrated set of activities and assets conducted and managed together) constitutes a business combination. To this end, control is considered transferred when the investor is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.
IFRS 3 requires that an acquirer be identified for all business combinations. The latter is the entity that obtains control over another entity or group of assets. If it is not possible to identify a controlling entity on the basis of the definition of control described above, such as for example in the case of exchanges of equity interests, the acquirer shall be identified using circumstances such as: the entity whose fair value is significantly greater, the entity that transfers cash, or the entity that issues new equity interests.
The acquisition, and therefore, the initial consolidation of the acquiree, must be recognized on the date on which the acquirer effectively obtains control over the company or assets acquired. When the transaction takes place as a single transfer, the date of transfer normally coincides with the acquisition date. However, it is always necessary to verify the possible presence of agreements between the parties that may lead to the transfer of control before the date of the exchange.
The consideration transferred as part of a business combination must be determined as the sum of the fair value, at the date of the exchange, of the assets acquired, the liabilities incurred or assumed and the equity instruments issued by the acquirer in exchange for control. In transactions involving payment in cash (or when payment is made using financial instruments comparable to cash) the price is the agreed consideration, possibly discounted if payment is to be made in instalments over a period longer than short term. If the payment is made using an instrument other than cash, therefore through the issue of equity instruments, the price is equal to the fair value of the means of payment, net of the costs directly attributable to the capital issue. Adjustments subject to future events are included in the consideration of the business combination at the acquisition date, if they are provided for in the agreements and only if they are probable, can be reliably determined and realized within the twelve months following the date of acquisition of control, while indemnities for a reduction of the value of the assets used are not considered as they are already considered either in the fair value of the equity instruments or as a reduction of the premium or increase in the discount on the initial issue in the case of the issue of debt instruments.
Any contingent consideration to be paid is recognized by the acquirer at fair value at the acquisition date. The contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent payment is accounted for with a balancing entry in shareholders' equity. The change in the fair value of the contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability, as a financial instrument that is subject to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, must be recognized in the income statement in accordance with IFRS 9. The contingent consideration that does not fall under the scope of IFRS 9 is measured at fair value at the reporting date and the fair value changes are booked to the income statement.
Acquisition-related costs are the costs the acquirer incurs to affect a business combination. By way of example, these may include professional fees paid to auditors, experts, legal consultants, costs for appraisals and auditing of accounts, preparation of information documents required by regulations, as well as finder's fees paid to identify potential targets to be acquired if it is contractually established that the payment is made only in the event of a positive outcome of the combination, as well as the costs of registering and issuing debt and equity securities. The acquirer shall recognize acquisition-related costs in the periods in which these costs are incurred and the services are received, with the exception of the costs of issuing debt or equity securities, which shall be recognized in accordance with IAS 32 and IAS 39.
Business combinations are accounted for using the "acquisition method", under which the identifiable assets acquired (including any intangible assets not previously recognized by the acquiree) and the identifiable liabilities assumed (including contingent liabilities) are recognized at their respective fair values on the acquisition date. In addition, for each business combination, any non-controlling interests in the acquiree can be recognized at fair value (with a consequent increase in the consideration transferred) or in proportion to the non-controlling stake in the identifiable net assets of the acquiree.
If control is acquired in stages, the acquirer shall measure its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at its acquisition date fair value and recognize through profit or loss any difference compared to the previous carrying amount.
The excess of the consideration transferred (represented by the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred or the equity instruments issued by the acquirer), the amount of any non-controlling interests (determined as described above) and the fair value of interests previously held by the acquirer,

over the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired shall be recognized as goodwill. Conversely, if the latter exceeds the sum of the consideration, non-controlling interests and fair value of previously held interests, the difference shall be recognized in the income statement.
Business combinations may be accounted for provisionally by the end of the financial year in which the business combination is carried out and must be completed within twelve months of the acquisition date. Pursuant to IFRS 10, the acquisition of additional stakes in entities that are already controlled are considered equity transactions, i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. Therefore, differences between the acquisition costs and the book value of non-controlling interests acquired are booked to Group shareholders' equity; similarly, sales of non-controlling interests without loss of control do not generate gains/losses recognized in profit or loss but rather are recognized as changes in Group Equity.
Business combinations do not include transactions to obtain control over one or more entities that do not constitute a business or to obtain transitory control or, finally, if the business combination is carried out for the purpose of reorganization, therefore between two or more companies or activities that already belong to the doValue Group and that does not involve a change in the control structure regardless of the percentage of third-party rights before and after the transaction (so-called combinations of entities under common control). These transactions are considered as having no economic substance. Accordingly, in the absence of an IAS/IFRS that specifically applies to the transaction and in compliance with the assumptions of IAS 8, which requires that - in the absence of a specific standard - an entity shall use its judgement in applying an accounting policy that produces relevant, reliable and prudent information that reflects the economic substance of the transaction, such transactions are accounted for by retaining the values of the acquiree in the financial statements of the acquirer. Mergers are a form of business combination, representing the most complete form of such combinations, as they involve the legal and financial merging of the entities participating in the transaction.
Whether they involve the formation of a new legal entity (merger of equals) or the absorption of one entity by another existing entity, mergers are treated in accordance with the criteria discussed above. Specifically:
An associate is an entity over which an investor has significant influence but which is not controlled exclusively or jointly controlled. Significant influence is presumed when the investor:
Note that only companies that are governed through voting rights can be classified as subject to significant influence.
Investments in associates are measured using the equity method. In accordance with IAS 36, the carrying amount of associated companies is tested as a single asset, comparing this with the recoverable amount (defined as the higher of its value in use and its fair value less costs of disposal).

With the Equity method, the investment in an associated company is initially recognized at cost. The book value of the Equity investment in companies measured using the equity method include any goodwill (less any impairment loss) paid to purchase them. The investor's share of the profit or loss of the investee after the acquisition date is recognized in the income statement under "Profit (loss) from equity investments". Any dividends distributed reduce the book value of the equity investment.
If the investor's interest in a subsidiary's losses is equal to or greater than its book value, no further losses are recognized, unless the investor has assumed specific obligations to or made payments on behalf of the company.
Gains and losses on transactions with associates or joint arrangements are eliminated in proportion to the percentage interest in the company.
Any changes in the valuation reserves of associates or joint arrangements, which are recorded against the value changes in the associated item, are reported separately in the Statement of comprehensive income.
As at September 30, 2022, there were no companies measured using the Equity method.

There were no changes to the scope of consolidation in the first nine months of 2022.
The doValue Group determines the existence of control and, as a consequence, the scope of consolidation, by ascertaining compliance with the requirements envisaged by IFRS 10 with regard to entities in which it holds exposures:
The factors considered for the purpose of this assessment depend on the entity's method of governance, its purpose and its financial structure.
This analysis led to the inclusion of the subsidiaries listed in the previous section within the scope of consolidation as at September 30, 2022.
In accordance with the provisions of IAS 10, following the closing date of the period and up to the approval of these Financial Statements, no significant events occurred that would require an adjustment to the results presented in the interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements.
Please refer to the Directors' Interim Report on Group Operations for a description of the significant events occurred after the end of the period.
The recovery of the world economy from the pandemic crisis continued with a strong acceleration in the first nine months of 2022, albeit with geographically diversified modalities and intensities. The discriminating factors are the speed of vaccination campaigns, the efficiency of infection prevention mechanisms and, lastly, the intensity of fiscal support for recovery.
At present, various support measures for households and businesses in terms of debt moratoriums ceased and there was a gradual normalization of the activity of the courts with a consequent acceleration of the collection activity by sector operators compared to the recent past. It is also believed that the moratoriums and various forms of government support implemented during the pandemic, although mostly ceased, did not allow a realistic view of the actual degree of credit deterioration.
Since the beginning of the pandemic, the doValue Group has activated the Business Continuity & Crisis Management Committee in a crisis session in order to take decisions based on the development of the situation. The main measures taken over time and still in force were aimed at supporting its employees and collaborators, in all countries in which it operates, in the management of the COVID-19 emergency, first and foremost protecting their health and well-being, while allowing them to maintain contact with the organization.
That being said, in compliance with the indications issued by ESMA, contained in the public statements published in March, May, July and October 2020, and by Consob, referred to in Warning Notices No. 6/20 of April 9, 2020, No. 8/20 of July 16, 2020 and No. 1/21 of February 16, 2021, the Group has continued to closely monitor the evolution of the situation with respect to the main areas of interest and in the main countries in which it operates, in continuity with what has already been indicated in the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2021, in order to assess, based on the specific business circumstances and the availability of reliable information, the relevance of the impacts of COVID-19 on the Group's business activities, financial position and economic performance as at September 30, 2022.
In this regard, it should be noted that the data for the first nine months of 2022 are not significantly affected by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, with regard to non-financial assets and any adjustments to their value (IAS 36), there were no significant changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic worthy of further consideration with respect to December 31, 2021.
However, while in the first nine months of 2022 the world economy is recovering from the pandemic, the Russian-Ukrainian military conflict, which started in February 2022, leads companies to face a new macroeconomic scenario of uncertainty.
Indeed, the Russian invasion of Ukraine poses a new threat to raw material supplies and prices and will further complicate the supply chain, also in view of the significant role Russia and Ukraine play in the international economic chessboard. Inflationary pressures, initially linked to the pandemic, will be exacerbated by the ongoing conflict and will burden costs across the board.
In relation to the aforementioned conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the Group is therefore aware of the potential criticalities connected to the ongoing emergency caused by the war, which has direct and indirect repercussions on the world economy and is contributing to fueling the context of general uncertainty already existing due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, whose evolutions and effects are not currently predictable and quantifiable with a high degree of reliability.
In accordance with the indications issued by ESMA in its public statement of 13 May 2022 "Implications of Russia's invasion of Ukraine on half-yearly financial reports" as well as Consob's Warning Notice No. 3/22 of May 19, 2022, the Group has carried out an analysis of the direct and indirect impacts in relation to the aforementioned conflict, the result of which leads to the conclusion that, as of today, the impacts on the doValue Group may be limited.
Regarding direct impacts:

With regard to indirect impacts, mainly related to the deterioration of key general economic indicators, such as inflation, growth rate, and interest rate trends, the Group carried out a verification of the internal and external trigger events on the intangible assets and conducted the impairment test, pursuant to IAS 36, only for those for which the trigger test threshold was exceeded without the need of write-downs. Therefore, as of September 30, 2022, the result of the impairment test carried out as of June 30, 2022 on all intangible assets was confirmed and which had brought to light some impairment indicators, such as the differences between the value in use of the active servicing contracts and their book value, net of the amortization for the period of €0.6 million, related to the Altamira contracts.
The situation regarding the Russia-Ukraine conflict will continue to be constantly monitored, and with it the potential effects on the 2022 annual financial statements.
The Group has adopted, for the first time, a number of accounting standards and amendments in preparing these interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements that took effect for financial years beginning as from January 1, 2022, with a list of them set out below, showing that they did not have any substantial effect on the balance sheet and income statement figures reported:
On May 13, 2022, ESMA published the Public Statement regarding the disclosure in half-yearly financial reports on the implications of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
On the same topic, Consob published a Warning Notice (No. 3/22) on May 19, 2022: Conflict in Ukraine - Call for attention of supervised issuers on financial reporting and compliance with the EU's restrictive measures against Russia.
Lastly, the new accounting standards, amendments and interpretations issued by IASB, but still not endorsed by the European Union, are reported below:
As regards the criteria for the recognition, classification, measurement and derecognition of the main items of the financial statements, refer to the corresponding section of the Illustratives Notes to the consolidated Financial Statements as at December 31, 2021.
Paragraph 9 of IFRS 13 defines fair value as "the price that would be received for the sale of an asset or that would be paid for the transfer of a liability in an arm's length transaction at the measurement date".
Measurement at fair value assumes that the sale of an asset or transfer of a liability takes place in a principal market, which can be defined as the market with the highest trading volumes and levels for the asset/liability being measured. In the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market should be taken as the reference, i.e. the market that maximizes the amount that would be received in the sale of an asset or minimizes the amount that would be paid in the transfer of a liability, after taking into account transaction costs.
With the aim of maximizing the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and related disclosures, IFRS 13 establishes a fair value hierarchy that divides the parameters used to measure fair value into three levels:
This classification aims to establish a hierarchy in terms of objectivity of the fair value according to the degree of discretion adopted, giving priority to the use of parameters observable on the market. The fair value hierarchy is also defined on the basis of the input data used in the fair value calculation models and not on the basis of the valuation models themselves.
The information required by IFRS 13 with regard to accounting portfolios measured at fair value on a recurring basis is shown below. For financial assets not measured at fair value, the Group believes that the book value is a reasonable approximation of the fair value.
At the date of preparation of the interim condensed consolidated Financial Statements as at September 30, 2022, there are no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.
ABSs are measured using the discounted cash flow model, which is based on an estimate of the cash flows paid by the security and an estimate of a spread for discounting.
Equities are assigned to Level 1 when an active market price considered liquid is available and to Level 3 when there are no prices or the prices have been suspended permanently. Such instruments are classified as Level 2 only if the volume of activity on the listing market is significantly reduced.
For equities measured at cost, an impairment loss is recognized if the cost exceeds the recoverable amount significantly and/or for a long time.
Funds are classified as Level 1 if they are listed on an active market; if this does not occur, they are classified as Level 3 and are assessed through a credit adjustment of the Net asset value (NAV) based on the specific characteristics of the individual fund.
The fair value of derivatives not traded on an active market is derived from the application of mark-tomodel valuation techniques. When there is an active market for the input parameters to the valuation model of the different components of the derivative, the fair value is determined on the basis of the market prices of those parameters. Valuation techniques based on observable inputs are classified as Level 2 while those based on significant unobservable inputs are classified as Level 3.
In order to assess positions for which market sources do not provide a directly observable market price, specific valuation techniques that are common in the market and described below are used.
The valuation techniques based on the discounted cash flow generally consist in determining an estimate of the future cash flows expected over the life of the instrument. The model requires the estimate of cash flows and the adoption of market parameters for the discount: the discount rate or margin reflects the credit and/or funding spread required by the market for instruments with similar risk and liquidity profiles, in order to define a "discounted value". The fair value of the contract is the sum of the discounted future cash flows.
A valuation technique that uses prices generated by market transactions involving assets, liabilities or groups of identical or comparable assets and liabilities.
The NAV is the difference between the total value of the fund's assets and liabilities. An increase in NAV coincides with an increase in fair value. Usually, for funds classified at Level 3, the NAV is a risk-free valuation; therefore, in this case, the NAV is adjusted to consider the issuer's default risk.
Financial instruments are assigned to a certain fair value level based on whether the inputs used for valuation are observable.
When fair value is measured directly using an observable quoted price in an active market, the instrument will be categorized within Level 1. When the fair value must be measured using a comparable approach or a pricing model, the instrument will be categorized in either Level 2 or Level 3, depending on whether all significant inputs used in the valuation are observable.
In the choice between the different valuation techniques, the one that maximizes the use of the observable inputs is used.
All transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy are made with reference to the end of the reporting period.
The main factors that would prompt a transfer between fair value levels (both between Level 1 and Level 2 and to Level 3) include changes in market conditions and improvements in valuation models and the relative weights of unobservable inputs used in fair value measurement.

The following table reports the breakdown of assets and liabilities measured at fair value by fair value hierarchy input level.
Level 3 of the category "Financial assets recognized at fair value through profit or loss" mainly includes:
Level 3 of the category "Financial assets recognized at fair value with impact on comprehensive income" includes the value of equity instruments related to the aforementioned minority interest in the company BidX1 and in the brazilian fintech company QueroQuitar S.A. for 11,46%, for which the Group applies, upon initial recognition, the option to designate at fair value with impact on comprehensive income.
The fair value of these financial assets was determined on the basis of the contracts for the acquisition of equity interests and the economic-financial parameters that can be drawn from the long-term plans of the acquired company. Since these parameters are not observable on the market (either directly or indirectly), these assets are classified under Level 3.
Level 3 of the "Other financial liabilities" category includes:
The fair value of these financial liabilities was determined on the basis of the contracts for the acquisition of equity interests and the economic-financial parameters that can be drawn from the long-term plans of the acquired companies. Since these parameters are not observable on the market (either directly or indirectly), these liabilities are classified under Level 3.

The opening balances are mainly represented by the value of the multi-year servicing contracts included in the item "Other intangible assets" and goodwill arising from the acquisitions made by the Group: in June 2019, the acquisition of Altamira Asset Management and its subsidiaries and, in June 2020, the business combination of Eurobank FPS (now doValue Greece).
Due to the acquisition of doValue Greece, the following net values were recorded as at September 30, 2022:
With respect to the acquisition of Altamira Asset Management and its subsidiaries, the net values as of September 30, 2022 are as follows:
The changes in gross balance mainly include "purchases", €21.7 million, which during the period were concentrated on the development of the IT platform, with an increase in the "software" and "assets under development and payments on account" categories. With regard to the category "other intangible assets", the reported increase of €6.1 million refers to the value recognised for additional costs incurred in obtaining the servicing contract for the Frontier portfolio.
The item also includes an "impairment" for a total of €0.6 million and originates from the impairment test in accordance with IAS 36 carried out on the values of intangible assets as at June 30, 2022.
In this regard, it should be noted that, with reference to September 30, 2022, the Group carried out an impairment test on three long-term servicing contracts of the Altamira and doValue Greece perimeters, following the result of the "trigger test" on internal and external indicators to all intangible assets purchased or resulting from business combinations, including goodwill.
This impairment test did not reveal any further write-downs compared to the loss of €0.6 million mentioned above which emerged in the last consolidated half-yearly report as at June 30, 2022, to which please refer for further information.
With regard to the methods used to carry out the test, please refer to the Section "Accounting Policies - Risks and uncertainties associated with the use of estimates" in the paragraph dedicated to Estimation of impairment losses on intangible assets.
The "other changes", which mainly affect the "software" and "assets under development and payments on account" categories, relate to the reclassification of assets between the two categories in connection with the entry into use of software.
The changes in reduction in value mainly consist of the amortisation charges for the period of €36.7 million. "Other intangible assets" include the values of long-term servicing contracts deriving from the evaluation of the doValue Spain and doValue Greece acquisition transactions and the "Frontier" contract, which are systematically amortised based on the direct margin curve for each contract over the course of its entire useful life, consistent with the best estimate of the cash flows from each individual contract. The amortisation charge of each contract was calculated to an extent corresponding to the direct margin posted in the period.

The changes in gross balance mainly include "purchases", which in the period totalled €10.7 million (of which €6.0 million in rights of use).
The "other changes" in gross balance should be read together with the same component included under changes in reduction in value and are largely related to the disposal of depreciated assets.
The changes in reduction in value included depreciation of €10.7 million, of which €8.4 million related to rights of use.

Non-current financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss include UCITS units, debt securities, equity securities and non-hedging derivatives.
The UICTS units relate to 26 units of the reserved closed-end alternative investment fund Italian Recovery Fund (formerly Atlante II). During the period, a partial repayment of €1.5 million was recorded, while a portion of further shares to be subscribed amounting to €1.1 million was entered under commitments. The fair value of these UCITS units, determined through a credit adjustment of the NAV based on the specific characteristics communicated by the Fund, revealed a positive difference of €0.4 million compared to the previous year.
Debt securities recorded a decrease of €2.3 million, of which €2.0 million of valuation origin related to the application of the Discounted Cash Flow method, as described in the section on Accounting Policies – Information on fair value.
Equity investments classified at fair value through profit or loss are attributable to the minority interests for which the Group has not exercised the envisaged option under IFRS 9 to measure these instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income without recycling to profit or loss.
Non-hedging derivatives include an option related to the purchase of additional shares in BidX1 mentioned below among the financial assets recognized at fair value through other comprehensive income.
The category of non-current financial assets measured at amortized cost includes loans to customers, the value of which is in line with that of 2021. This item is mainly attributable to the subsidiary doNext and derives from the use of financial resources originating from a limited recourse loan, destined for a specific business and classified in other financial liabilities. For more details, please refer to the section of financial risks in the chapter on Information on risks and risks management policies.
€1.5 million or 11.46% of the Brazilian fintech company QueroQuitar S.A., which operates in the field of digital collections;
€7.9 million or 15.2% of BidX1, an Irish proptech company specializing in the promotion and execution of real estate transactions through real-time online auction processes.
For these non-controlling interests, the Group has exercised the option provided by IFRS 9, which allows these instruments to be measured at fair value with an impact on comprehensive income without recycling to the income statement.
Current financial assets include the valuation of a non-hedging derivative in the category at fair value through profit or loss. The derivative, which has been recognized since 2021, is the result of a call option included in the contract for the acquisition of the shareholding in Bidx1 and, as at September 30, 2022, recorded a positive fair value of €1.5 million.
The items report deferred tax assets by deductible temporary difference.
Deferred tax assets (hereinafter also referred to as "DTAs") include amounts in respect of loan write-downs and deferred tax assets determined specifically on the basis of the stocks of the components to which they refer (litigation, provisions for employees).
In this regard, the Parent Company exercised the option to retain the possibility of converting deferred tax assets into tax credits pursuant to Article 11 of Legislative Decree 59 of May 3, 2016, ratified with Law 119 of June 30, 2016. This measure introduced the optional regime in order to eliminate issues that emerged at the Community level regarding the incompatibility of the DTA transformation legislation with the rules governing state aid, ensuring that the convertibility of qualifying DTAs into tax credits is only allowed following payment of a specific fee based on the amount of those DTAs.
With regard to the deferred tax assets referred to in Law 214/2011, as a result of the express provision of Article 56 of Decree-Law 225 of 12/29/2010, the negative components corresponding to the deferred tax assets transformed into tax credits are not deductible, first offsetting on a priority basis decreases at the nearest maturity in an amount corresponding to a tax equal to the transformed DTAs.
The 2019 Budget Act (Law 145/2018) modified the temporary mechanism provided for in Article 16, paragraphs 3-4 and 8-9 of Decree-Law 83/2015 concerning the deductibility for both IRES and IRAP purposes of the loan losses of banks, financial companies and insurance undertakings. The law essentially deferred to the current tax period as at December 31, 2026, for both IRES and IRAP purposes, the deductibility of 10% of write-downs and losses on loans to customers recognized for that purpose that were originally intended to be deducted for the current tax period as at December 31, 2018.
Article 1, paragraphs 712-715 of the 2020 Budget Act (Law 160/2019) then provided for the deferral of the deduction of the negative IRES (corporate income tax) components. More specifically, the deductibility, for IRES and IRAP purposes, of the stock of write-downs and loan losses credit and financial institutions, of 12%, originally established for the tax period under way as at December 31, 2019 was postponed to tax periods under way as at December 31, 2022 and the three subsequent tax periods. The deferral is made on a straight-line basis.
Article 42 of Decree-Law No. 17/2022 intervenes for the third time on the original deduction plan with a postponement technique substantially similar to that carried out by Law No. 160/2019.
This law provides as follows: the portion that should have been deducted in the financial year 2022 is deferred to the tax period in progress on December 31, 2023 and the three following years. It should be noted, in this regard, that the postponement only affects the 12% deduction originally provided for in Decree-Law 83/2015, but not the 3% deduction provided for in Article 1, paragraph 712 of Law No. 160/2019, which instead remains deductible according to the ordinary timeframe. Moreover, to partially mitigate the effects of such postponement, Paragraph 1-bis of Article 42 amends Paragraph 1056 of Law No. 145/2018, establishing that 53% of the 10% share pertaining to 2019 and postponed for IRES and IRAP purposes to 2026 is brought forward to December 31, 2022; for the remaining part (47%), the deductibility of the share itself remains fixed to 2026.
The recovery plan for pre-2015 corrections is now as follows as a result of Decree-Law No. 17/2022: 5% in the tax period ending December 31, 2016; 8% in the tax period ending December 31, 2017; 12% in the tax period ending December 31, 2020; 12% in the tax period ending December 31, 2021; 8.3% (3% +5.3%) in the tax period ending December 31, 2022; 18% (12% +3% +3%) for the tax period ending December 31, 2023; 18% (12% +3% +3%) for the tax period ending December 31, 2024; 11% (5% +3%+3%) for the tax period ending December 31, 2025; 7.7% for the tax period ending December 31, 2026. At the time of conversion, the original provision of Decree-Law No. 17/2022 (which provided for the deferral of the portion subject to reversal in 2021) was amended in two respects: i) on the one hand, the deferral to the 2022 portion was provided for instead of the 2021 portion; ii) on the other hand, the deduction of the 2019 portion deferred to 2026 was partially brought forward to 2022.
As a result of these legal provisions, the amount of deferred tax assets relating to the Parent Company will begin to move as of 2023, instead of 2022.
With regard to the provisions of IAS 12, deferred tax assets are subject to sustainability testing, taking account of forecast profits in future years and verifying that future taxable income will be available against which the deferred tax assets can be used.
As at September 30, 2022, additional DTAs totaling €3.5 million were recognized, mostly related to tax losses carried forward. This increase was more than offset by lower deferred tax assets related to the cancelation of deferred tax assets for the period in the amount of €9.7 million.
The criteria used for the recognition of deferred tax assets can be summarized as follows:
deferred tax assets correspond to the amounts of income tax that can be recovered in future years regarding temporary differences;
the prerequisite for the recognition of deferred tax assets is that it is considered reasonably certain in view of corporate developments that taxable income will be generated against which the deductible temporary differences will be used.
IRES and IRAP taxation was calculated by applying the tax rates established by the legal provisions in force in each country, with application, only to doNext, of the IRES surcharge of 3.5 percent provided for Italian credit and financial institutions (Law 208 of December 28, 2015).
On the other hand, as far as the determination of the Italian IRAP rate is concerned, as of September 30, 2022, doValue maintains the requirements of a non-financial holding company. As a result of this classification, doValue determines the taxable base in the same way as ordinary companies, in addition to taking into account the difference between interest income and similar income and interest expense and similar charges to the extent provided for by tax law, and also applying the increased rate (equal to 5.57% unless otherwise provided for by the individual competent regions) as applied to credit and financial institutions.

Within the Group, there are defined benefit plans, or plans for which the benefit is linked to the salary and seniority of the employee.
The defined benefit plans of the Italian companies mainly include "post-employment benefits" in accordance with applicable regulations, as well as other provisions of a contractual nature. For Greece, there is a defined benefit plan on a mandatory basis.
In accordance with IAS 19, the obligations of defined benefit plans are determined using the "Projected Unit Credit" method. This method envisages that the present value of the benefits accrued by each participant in the plan during the year is recognized as an operating cost, considering both future salary increases and the benefit allocation formula. The total benefit that the participant expects to acquire at the retirement date is divided into units, associated on the one hand with the seniority accrued at the valuation date and on the other with the expected future seniority until retirement.

Employee benefits restated for the application of IAS 19 changed as follows during the period.

The item legal and tax disputes recognized against the economic item "provisions for risks and charges" primarily includes funds in respect of the risks of litigation brought against the Group concerning its core activities. It decreased by €1.5 million owing to the greater impact of the settlement of a number of disputes compared with provisions for new disputes.
The item out-of-court disputes and other provisions increased by €2.0 million, from €8.3 million at December 31, 2021 to €10.3 million at September 30, 2022, and mainly includes provisions for risks for which no litigation has currently been undertaken.
The change in the item other shows the provision and release to the income statement of the respective portions pertaining to the year of the variable fees connected to a particular type of fee ("Curing Fee") and in application of the provisions of IFRS15.
The Group operates in a legal and legislative context that exposes it to a vast range of possible litigation connected with the core business of servicing loan recovery under mandate, potential administrative irregularities and labor litigation.
The associated risks are assessed periodically in order to quantify a specific allocation to the "Provision for risks and charges" whenever an outlay is considered probable or possible on the basis of the information that becomes available, as provided for in the specific internal policies.

As at September 30, 2022, the item amounted to €78.3 million compared to €104.9 million in 2021, with an overall decrease of €26.6 million.
With regard to other non-current liabilities, the main component "Amounts to be paid to third parties" refers for €7.3 million to the liability towards Eurobank linked to the "advance compensation commission", subject to certain performance conditions, received by the Group in connection with the securitisation of the Mexico portfolio. The item recorded a decrease of €20.3 million, mainly due to the combined effect of the €22.4 million release of the liability towards Eurobank mentioned above, following the definition of a contractual addendum between the parties, offset by the recognition of €2.1 million liability related to the acquisition of software under medium- to long-term contracts.
The item other current liabilities shows an overall decrease of €6.2 million, resulting from the aggregation of the changes in the following main components.
"Amounts to be paid to third parties" increased by €9.0 million and at the end of the period included €2.9 million relating to dividends to be paid and €5.9 million referring to contractual liabilities related to the Frontier SLA.
"Amounts due to personnel" decreased by €4.6 million, mainly related to the payment of MBO bonuses for the 2021 incentive scheme and for redundancies.
"Other accrued expenses/deferred income" decreased by €8.0 million mainly due to the release of the period portion of the deferred income recorded at the end of 2020 in the amount of €31 million, in application of IFRS15 and referring to the accounting of the prepayment of fixed servicing fees accruing in the year 2021.

The Shareholders' Meeting of doValue on 28 April 2022 approved the Report on the Remuneration Policy 2022-2024 (hereinafter "the Policy") and the remuneration paid in 2021 by doValue S.p.A. applicable to Directors, Executives with Strategic Responsibilities and Members of the Control Bodies.
The new Remuneration Policy is based on the time horizon of 2022-2024, in line with the Business Plan and thus able to ensure a high degree of consistency to the entire governance system, to favor the filling of key roles and also to guarantee an attractive remuneration offer for people who are key to the Group's long-term strategy.
With the perspective of a three-year policy, the main features of the Remuneration Policy in 2021 were confirmed, while introducing some elements:
The Policy envisages remuneration systems in some cases based on the use of its own financial instruments. In detail, they include the following types of remuneration:
The variable component of remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer indicated above is paid in part upfront and in part on a deferred basis over three years. The up-front portion is paid after the approval, by the Shareholders' Meeting, of the financial statements for the accrual period and no later than the month following approval. The deferred variable portion is instead postponed on a pro-rata basis on the threeyear period following assignment of the variable up-front portion.
The disbursement of the deferred portion of the variable component of the Chief Executive Officer is subject to assessment by an Access Gate and certain malus conditions, measured as at December 31 of the year prior to vesting.
For the shares allocated to Executives with Strategic Responsibilities of the LTI plans, provision is made for a 1-year retention period for 50% of the shares accrued, while for the Chief Executive Officer, the shares received can be sold on a quarterly basis, for a maximum amount not exceeding 25% of the shares allocated.
The Group uses treasury shares for these remuneration plans.
The reference price for calculating the number of shares to be assigned as the equivalent value of the variable remuneration of the LTI plan is determined by using the average of the closing prices in the 3 months prior to the day on which the Board of Directors approves each allotment cycle.
In order to reflect the levels of performance and risk actually taken on, and to take account of the individual contribution of the beneficiaries, the Group applies ex-post correction mechanisms (malus and claw-back clauses) defined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable national collective bargaining agreements, where applicable, or any individual agreements/mandates.
For more details on the mechanisms and terms of attribution of the shares, please refer to the information documentation published on the internet website of the Group www.doValue.it ("Governance/Remuneration" section).
doValue – Consolidated Interim Report at September 30, 2022
The amount recognized in the income statement for the first nine months of 2022 amounts to €4.8 million, with a corresponding amount reflected in a specific equity reserve.
The Group leases properties and vehicles that are used in operations or assigned to employees. The property leases generally have an original term of 6 years, while the vehicle leases generally have an original term of 4 years. The liabilities in respect of these lease contracts are secured by the lessors' ownership of the leased assets. In general, the Group cannot sublet its leased assets to third parties. Most of the leases include renewal or cancelation options typical of property leases, while none envisage variable payments.

| REO services | 55,759 | 49,991 |
| Total | 395,235 | 353,159 |
Overall, this item increased by 12% compared to September 30, 2021.
This positive result resulted from higher revenues recorded in all components: servicing for securitizations (+24%), REO services (+12%), and servicing services (+5%).
The servicing services include the administration, management and recovery of loans utilizing in-court and out-of-court recovery processes on behalf and under the mandate of third parties for portfolios mainly consisting of non-performing loans.
These services normally include a performance obligation that is fulfilled over time: in fact, the customer simultaneously receives and uses the benefits of the recovery service and the service provided improves the credit that the customer controls.
For the recognition of revenues, the Group applies a valuation method based on the outputs represented by both the assets managed and the collections on each position under mandate, so as to recognize revenues for an amount equal to that for which it has the right to invoice the customer.
The Group, following a more precise interpretation of certain clauses in the Service Level Agreement signed between doValue Greece and Eurobank related to a particular type of fee (the so-called "Curing Fee") and in application of the provisions of IFRS15 on variable fees, aligned the related revenue recognition method, with a balancing entry to a specific provision for risks and charges against possible penalties on restructured stock and flow portfolios.
This involves the management of real estate assets on behalf of and under the mandate of third parties, including the management of real estate guarantees as well as the development and management of the properties subject to mandate.
As with the servicing services mentioned above, there is an obligation to perform over time because the customer receives and simultaneously uses the benefits of the property management and/or sale service. For revenue recognition, the Group applies a valuation method based on the outputs of property management activities and sales on each managed position, so as to recognize revenues for an amount equal to that for which it has the right to invoice the customer.
The breakdown of revenue from contracts with Group customers is shown below:

| Other revenues | 2,761 | 2,137 |
| Total | 30,354 | 30,166 |
The item is substantially stable compared to the same period of the previous year (+1%), as a result of higher revenues related to administrative servicing / Corporate Services Provider activities mainly carried out by the parent company doValue and including the new "Master Legal" business line.
These higher revenues were almost totally offset by lower revenues recorded in particular in ancillary REO services, the cause of which can be traced back to a contractual renegotiation with less favorable volumes and terms compared to the pre-existing situation.

The write-down of intangible assets of €0.6 million is due to the effects of the impairment test conducted on the book balances as at June 30, 2022 (for more details, see also Note 1 – Intangible Assets). The item is also affected by the effects of IFRS 16 for amortisation of rights of use, which amounted to €8.4 million in 2022.

Financial expense (€21.4 million) includes interest expenses accrued on the outstanding 2020 and 2021 bonds amounting to €20.0 million.
The component "other financial expenses" essentially includes the portion of interest calculated in accordance with IFRS 16.
The net change of other financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss is attributable to the fair value delta related to the notes of the Cairo, Romeo SPV and Mexico securitizations.
Every country in which the doValue Group operates has an independent tax system in which the determination of the tax base, the level of the tax rates, the nature, the type and the timing of the formal obligations differ from one another.
Currently, for the year in progress, as regards tax rates and with reference to the countries in which the Group operates, the income tax of the companies is established at a nominal rate of 25% in Spain, 21% in Portugal (to which a "Municipal Surtax" of 1.5% is added and an additional "State surtax" of 3%, 5% or 9% depending on the disposable income bracket), 22% in Greece and 12.5% in Cyprus.
In Italy, the standard income tax rate (IRES) is 24%, to which a surcharge of 3.5% is added, applicable exclusively to banks and financial institutions (Law no. 208 of December 28, 2015), which applies to the subsidiary doNext.
In addition to IRES, in Italy, IRAP (regional business tax) must be added. As at December 31, 2021, in order to determine the IRAP rate of the Parent Company doValue, maintenance of the requirements of nonfinancial equity holding was verified, with the subsequent application of the rate envisaged for banks and the extension of the tax base also to financial charges and income; the nominal rate for banks and financial institutions is 4.65% (to which each Region can independently apply an increase of 0.92%, up to a theoretical rate of 5.57% plus a further 0.15% for the regions with a health deficit).

The doValue Group, in line with the regulations that apply to it and applicable best practices, has an Internal Control System that is composed of instruments, organizational structures, company rules and regulations targeted at allowing, through an adequate process of company risk identification, measurement, management and monitoring, sound, correct company management consistent with the pre-established performance targets and protection of company assets as a whole.
The Group Internal Control System is based on control bodies and departments, information flows and mechanisms to involve the applicable parties and Group governance mechanisms. In particular, the Group has structured its organizational model of internal controls by pursuing the need to ensure integration and coordination between the actors of the Internal Control System, in compliance with the principles of integration, proportionality and cost-effectiveness, as well as to ensure the reliability, accuracy, trustworthiness and timeliness of financial reporting.
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not fulfil its obligations linked to a financial instrument or a commercial contract, therefore leading to a financial loss. This risk mainly derives from economic and financial factors, or from the possibility of a default situation of a counterparty.
The Group is exposed to credit risk deriving mainly from its operating activities, i.e., from trade receivables and, to a lesser extent, from its financing activities, deposits with leading banks and financial institutions and other financial instruments, as well as reduced non-performing positions owned.
Trade receivables, which are at very short term and are settled with payment of the related invoice, are essentially attributable to servicing contracts under which the Group companies accrue receivables in respect of their counterparties, who may default due to insolvency, economic events, liquidity shortages, operational deficiencies or other reasons.
In order to limit this risk, the Group monitors the positions of individual customers, analyses expected and actual cash flows in order to promptly undertake any recovery actions.
Pursuant to IFRS 9, at each reporting date, these receivables are subject to an assessment aimed at verifying whether there is evidence that the carrying amount of the assets cannot be fully recovered.
As at September 30, 2022, the main trade counterparties were represented by banks and important investment funds with high credit standing and Vehicle Companies established pursuant to the provisions of Law 130/1999.
For a quantitative analysis, please see the Note on trade receivables.
With regard to individual non-performing positions, which concern a marginal number of positions acquired over time, the procedures and tools supporting the activity of the workout units always enable position managers to prepare accurate forecasts of the amounts and timing of expected recoveries on the individual relationships in accordance with the state of progress in the recovery management process. These analytical evaluations take account of all the elements objectively connected with the counterparty and are in any case conducted by the position managers in compliance with the principle of sound and prudent management.
As regards the credit risk relating to relations with banks and financial institutions, the Group only uses interlocutors with a high credit standing.
The liquidity risk is manifested as the inability to raise, an economically sustainable manner, the financial resources necessary for the Group's operations.
The two main factors that determine the Group's liquidity situation are, on the one hand, the resources generated or absorbed by operating and investment activities and, on the other, the expiry and renewal characteristics of the debt or liquidity of financial investments and market conditions.
The Group has adopted a series of policies and processes to optimize the management of financial resources, thereby reducing liquidity risk.
The Parent Company doValue identifies and monitors liquidity risk on a current and forward-looking basis. In particular, the prospective assessment takes account of probable developments in the cash flows connected with the Group's business.
One of the main instruments for mitigating liquidity risk is the holding of reserves of liquid assets and revolving credit lines. The liquidity buffer represents the amount of liquid assets held by the Group and readily usable under stress conditions and deemed appropriate in relation to the risk tolerance threshold specified.
In order to ensure efficient liquidity management, starting from the second quarter of the current financial year, treasury activities are largely centralized at the Holding level, providing for liquidity requirements primarily with cash flows generated by ordinary operations and ensuring appropriate management of any surpluses.
Management believes that the funds and credit lines currently available, in addition to the liquidity that will be generated by operations and financing activities, will enable the Group to meet its requirements for investment, working capital management and repayment of debt as it falls due.

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will change due to changes in the market price. The market price includes three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risks, such as, for example, the price risk on equity securities. The financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and financing, deposits, debt and equity instruments and financial derivative instruments.
The Group, which uses external financial resources in the form of debt and uses available liquidity in bank deposits, is exposed to interest rate risk, which represents the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will change due to due to changes in market interest rates. The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates is related to long-term indebtedness with variable interest rates.
Thanks to the 2020 and 2021 fixed rate bond issues, the structure of the Group's current long-term debt is no longer affected by interest rate risk.
This section shows securitization transactions originated by the Group, those in which the Group invests by underwriting the related debt securities, and transactions in which the Group acts as servicer.
On September 30, 2016, the assignment of the non-performing portfolio of the Parent Company doValue to the securitization vehicle Romeo SPV S.r.l. ("Romeo") was finalized. Romeo was established pursuant to Law 130/1999. Subsequently, during the second quarter of 2017, the portion of the unsecured portfolio was transferred to the vehicle Mercuzio Securitization S.r.l. ("Mercuzio") and at the same time the issue of ABS securities by both SPVs was completed with a single tranching of securities.
As originator, doValue has subscribed a nominal value of notes equal to 5% of the total securities issued in order to comply with the provisions of the retention rule referred to in Regulation (EU) 575/2013 (the CRR). In both transactions, doValue plays the role of Servicer and Administrative Services Provider.
At the same time as the acquisition of Eurobank FPS (now doValue Greece), in June 2020 mezzanine notes of the three Cairo securitizations (Cairo I, Cairo II and Cairo III) were subscribed, the securities of which are backed by state guarantees ("Asset Protection Scheme"). The originator of this transaction is Eurobank, which sold €7.4 billion of performing and non-performing loans.
In December 2020, mezzanine and junior ABS securities were also subscribed for the Relais securitization, which concerns lease receivables sold by UniCredit. However, these notes were sold in February 2021, while the Group maintained the roles of Master Servicer (performed by doNext) and Special Servicer (performed by doValue).
In the second half of 2021, with regard to the Mexico transaction, the Parent Company doValue subscribed €45.0 million of junior and mezzanine notes, corresponding to 95% of the notes issued by the vehicle, and simultaneously sold 90% of the total notes issued to a third investor; the remaining portion of notes recognized in the balance sheet therefore corresponds to 5% class B (mezzanine) and 5% class C (junior). The Group is servicer of the portfolio through its subsidiary doValue Greece.
On March 16, 2021, the subsidiary doNext collected funds deriving from a special purpose loan payable, taken out with Vitruvian Investments S.A. and regulated by Articles 2447-bis, paragraph 1, letter B and 2447–decies of the Italian Civil Code.
In consideration of the typical limited recourse arrangement of this loan, it emerged that the credit risk assumed by doNext is essentially nil.
In particular, the specific business activity forming the object of the special purpose loan provided by Vitruvian to Italfondiario of €4.3 million, is aimed at allowing the disbursement of new pre-deductible finance pursuant to Article 182-quater of Royal Decree 267 of March 16, 1942 by doNext in the restructuring procedure launched in accordance with Article 182-bis of Royal Decree 267 of March 16, 1942 by the borrower, and in particular:
Interest income accrues at a fixed rate of 500 bps (5%) on the medium/long-term credit line, while interest income accrues at a fixed rate of 300 bps (3%) on the credit line for the advance payment of invoices. By contrast, interest accrues on the special purpose loan for an amount corresponding to the amount collected by doNext relating to the business activity in the form of interest on the new financing.
Pursuant to and in accordance with Article 2447-decies of the Italian Civil Code, a copy of the special purpose loan agreement was published in the Register of Companies.
For the initial structuring of the transaction doNext has already collected a fee of €40 thousand.
As at September 30, 2022 the medium/long-term loan of €1.8 million was disbursed, while the credit line was totally used.
Details of the items in the balance sheet as at September 30, 2022 relating to this special purpose loan are shown below, whose amount in the income statement is equal to zero due to the full of offsetting of the interest income and interest expense both recognized in the item "financial (expenses)/income".

Operational risk is the risk of incurring losses due to the inadequacy or the failure of procedures, human resources and internal systems, or to external events.
This includes, among other things, losses from fraud, human error, the interruption of operations, system unavailability, contractual breaches and natural disasters. Operational risks (including the IT component) include legal risk, while strategic and reputational risks are not included.
doValue adopts a set of controls, principles and rules to manage operational risk.
In the organizational sphere, within the Operations Country Italy Department, the position of Contact Person for Risk Management activities for Country Italy has been established, which guarantees, also through the collaboration and being able to count on the operational support of the Group function - Enterprise Risk Management, constant monitoring and proactive management of risks attributable to business and support processes and their potential impact in terms of provisions and operating losses.
The Function is therefore responsible for overseeing the management of significant risks to which the Parent Company's activities are exposed, with specific regard to operational risks. It defines the associated guidelines and identifies and monitors those risks, using suitable methodological approaches, procedures and tools and providing appropriate reporting to the Corporate Bodies, consistent with the approach set out in the broader doValue Control System.
The governance structure for operational risks envisages not only the direct involvement of senior management but also an Operational Risks Committee, which is responsible for doValue, proposing measures to address the risks detected, examining operational risk reports, recommending control procedures and limits on operational risks and monitoring risk mitigation actions.
In order to manage operational risks, doValue has implemented a structured set of processes, functions and resources dedicated to:
With regard to the latter process, the indicators are a forward-looking component that promptly reflects improvements or deteriorations in the risk profile as a result of changes in operating segments, in human resources, technological and organizational resources as well as in the internal control system. In this regard, specific indicators have been created which are monitored on a monthly basis and compared with the previous month to justify any positive or negative changes in order to highlight any risks in corporate processes, as well as an action plan for indicators that do not fall within the specified range.
Finally, the Parent Company has set up a reporting system with different reporting dates and levels of detail that ensures timely reporting on operational risks to the Corporate Bodies and the heads of the organizational functions involved.
Similarly, a risk management framework compliant with Circular no. 288 of April 3, 2015 of the Bank of Italy that provides for the management of operational risk identification processes, not unlike those of the Parent Company, has also been implemented at the doNext subsidiary, which is entered the register of financial intermediaries pursuant to Article 106 of the Consolidated Banking Act, and the register of payment institutions pursuant to Article 114 - septies of the Consolidated Banking Act (although it has not yet started operating as a payment institution).
For the purposes of the management of the Groups capital, it was defined that this includes the share premium reserve and all other reserves attributable to the shareholders of the Parent Company. The main objective of capital management is to maximize value for shareholders, safeguard business continuity, as well as support the development of the Group.
The Group therefore intends to maintain an adequate level of capitalization, which at the same time makes it possible to achieve a satisfactory economic return for shareholders and to guarantee efficient access to external sources of financing.
The Group constantly monitors the evolution of the level of indebtedness to be compared to shareholders' equity and taking into account the generation of cash from the businesses in which it operates.
There are currently no financial covenants linked to a gearing ratio, i.e. the ratio between the net debt and the total capital plus the net debt, illustrated below.

This section provides detailed information on business combinations involving company enterprises or branches undertaken with counterparties outside the Group, which are accounted for using the purchase method as provided for under IFRS 3 "Business combinations".
Therefore, business combinations involving company enterprises or business branches already controlled directly or indirectly by doValue as part of the Group's internal re-organizations are not included here. These transactions, which do not have economic substance, are accounted for in the financial statements of the seller and the buyer on a predecessor value basis.
No external or internal business combinations were recorded in the first nine months of 2022.
The doValue Group did not carry out any business combinations after September 30, 2022.
As at September 30, 2022, there are no retrospective adjustments related to previous business combinations.
