Turnover witnessing a strong growth story

2023 annual growth rate (17%) above the market average (+8%)

Net Income: high profitability from the operations

Profitability level in line with 2023 Budget

Focus on Asset Quality and Digital Factoring

A low risk model with a best in class asset quality

Assifact NPE Ratio (%) as at 31.12.2022 Cost of Risk has been computed as Credit Risk Adjustments / Annual Disbursed Loans; Gross NPE («Non-Performing Exposure») Ratio has been computed as Gross NPE / Gross Loans to Customers

Default Rate and NPE Ratio constantly improving

Default rate: NPE inlfow of the year / loans disbursement flow of the year

Collection performance: a strategic delivery to our Customers

Generalfinance boasts a portfolio quality, both in terms of Payment Conditions and Payment Delays, higher than the rest of the market

Small businesses perceive more benefits from factoring

Company's DSO expressing a very low duration of the portfolio

A unique business model, leveraging the factoring features

The peculiarity of Generalfinance's business model is the choice of Seller–Debtor, where clients (Sellers) typically have a low credit rating (turnaround situation) while the Debtors underlying customer loans refer to a high credit rating (investment grade)

Notes: 1) Generalfinance data refers to 1Q 2023 (LTM); Assifact data refers to 2022; 2) Assifact data net of household debtors.

A strategic asset: the proprietary digital platform

A very simple balance sheet with a strong capital position…

RWA Density: RWA / Total Asset Note: CET1 Ratio and Total Capital Ratio calculated taking into account total dividends to be distributed (payout 50% of net profit)

…coupled with a robust funding and liquidity position

Net interest Income, «hedged» against interest rate rises

▪ Net Interest Income only ~22% of the Net Banking Income

  • Almost all funding available at variable rates (Eurbor 1M, 3M)
  • As of today, around 99% of the factoring contracts have been renegotiated, changing the calculated interest rate from fixed to variable (based on Euribor 3M)

2020A 2021A 2022A 1Q22 4Q22 1Q23

Notes: (1) Calculated as interest expense / average financial liabilities (current and previous year); (2) Spread: Avarage interest rate on seller – Avarage cost of funding (3) Interest income + Delayed payment Interest / average loans (current and previous year); (4) Calculated as Net Interest income/ average loans (current and previous year)

Net commission income, the primary source of profitability

▪ Net Commission Income ~78% of the Net Banking Income

▪ Commission Income/Turnover stable YoY, even with the different mix of the portfolio (Corporate Sellers vs Retail Sellers)

Declining commission expense rate thanks to optimization of insurance costs and banking fees

Cost / Income reflecting the efficiency of the operating machine

Year-on-year growth in operating costs lower than the CAGR of the last 3 years

Cost income remaining at excellent levels from the high efficiency of the operating machine and the economy of scale (IT proprietary platform)

Note: (1) other net revenues and risk charges; (2) Operating Costs / Net Banking Income. Operating Costs on Adjusted basis

2022 FY Results: Closing Remarks

Closing Remarks

  • 2023 start of the year confirms a growing trend, in line with full year budget
  • Macro economic evolution and more difficult environment for SME lending support our strategy
  • Excellent asset quality confirms Generalfinance conservative risk policy
  • Costs under control and cost income expected to drop despite the planned investments (digital platform, FTEs) confirm good operating leverage

New steps ahead to further support our numbers

  • New sellers pipeline set to push a stronger growth ahead
  • Robust funding structure to support future growth
  • Strong Capital ratios (CET1 at 16.0%) allowing a sound capital buffer for growth exceeding strategic plan horizon
  • Expanding Generalfinance abroad: further steps towards the conclusion of the analysis over foreign market (Southern Europe)

Net Income guidance confirmed in the range 16-17 €M
