In the second quarter, revenue for the Brand amounted to EUR 200.1 million, an increase of 118% with respect to Q2 2020 and 5% at constant exchange rates compared with Q2 2019, even though the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic continued to impact Q2 revenues especially in Japan and EMEA. Revenue performance with local clients was very good, rising double digits at the global level compared with the same period in 2019.

In Asia (which includes APAC, Japan and Korea), first-half revenue showed growth of 59% at constant exchange rates with respect to the first half of 2020 and 15% on the same period in 2019.

In the second quarter, revenue in the APAC region recorded double-digit growth compared with Q2 2019 mainly driven by the Chinese mainland, where revenue almost doubled compared to Q2 2019.

Performance was also excellent in Korea, with strong double-digit growth compared to the same period in 2019. Conversely, due to the tightening of pandemic-related restrictions, revenue in Japan slowed in Q2 and was negative with respect to the second quarter of 2019.

In EMEA, in the first half of 2021, revenue increased by 10% at constant exchange rates with respect to 2020 (-20% at constant exchange rates compared with H1 2019), with an improvement in the second quarter (-11% vs 2019) also thanks to the loosening of restrictions put in place to contain the pandemic. Specifically, in the second quarter, the United Kingdom and Germany significantly outperformed the regional average.

At constant exchange rates, revenue in the Americas doubled since the first half of 2020 and grew by 17% with respect to H1 2019, with growth accelerating in the second quarter (+40% compared with Q2 2019). The United States drove the Region's performance.

Moncler: Revenue by Channel

In the first half, the Direct-To-Consumer (DTC)1 distribution channel produced revenue of EUR 418.4 million: +44% at constant exchange rates compared with the first half of 2020 (EUR 300.5 million) and -2% on the same period in 2019. The second quarter, despite an improvement in certain markets, suffers in comparison with 2019 as a result of the decreased traffic in Japan, due to more restrictive measures to fight the pandemic and the decision to delay the important launch of Moncler Genius Fragment from June to July. The e-commerce channel continued to grow strongly (triple digit on 2019).

  • Revenues by stores open for at least 12 months (Comp-Store Sales)2 grew by 41% compared with H1 2020.
  • During the half-year, on average, about 10% of the retail store network underwent temporary closures.

The wholesale channel reported revenue of EUR 147.1 million, compared with EUR 102.8 million in the first half of 2020, an increase of 42% at constant exchange rates on H1 2020 and of 10% on the same period in 2019. Performance in this channel was driven by strong reorders, especially in the American market, and by e-tailers, which continued to significantly outperform the channel average.

At 30 June 2021, the network of mono-brand Moncler boutiques was made up of 224 directly operated stores (DOS), an increase of five since 31 December 2020, of which three opened in the second quarter. The Moncler brand also operates 63 wholesale shop-in-shops (SIS), stable compared to 31 December 2020 and 31 March 2021.

At 30 June, nine DOS were still temporarily closed.

<sup>1 The DTC channel includes revenues from DOS, from direct online and from e-concessions

$^2$ Comparable Store Sales Growth (CSSG) considers revenues growth from DOS (excluding outlets) open for at least 52 weeks and the online store; stores that have been expanded and/or relocated are not included.

ANALYSIS OF STONE ISLAND BRAND REVENUE

In the second quarter of 2021, when it was first consolidated into the Moncler Group, the Stone Island brand reported revenue of EUR 56.2 million (EUR 144.3 million from 1 January 2021).

During the quarter the Brand enjoyed significant growth in all its markets, including the domestic one, which accounted for approximately 20% of total revenues, and in other European countries. Growth was very strong in the wholesale channel, which made up 72% of the Brand's total revenues for the period. Performance of the DTC channel was excellent, driven by the growth of online revenues as well as new store openings in China and the United States.

At 30 June 2021, the network of mono-brand Stone Island stores was made up of 30 retail and 56 monobrand wholesale stores.

MONCLER GROUP INCOME STATEMENT RESULTS

All consolidated performance and balance sheet figures reported and discussed below include the firsthalf results for the Moncler brand and the second quarter results for the Stone Island brand. They also exclude the impacts of the Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) adjustments and of other costs related to the acquisition of the brand Stone Island.

Cost of goods sold and gross margin

In the first six months of 2021, the consolidated gross margin was EUR 467.6 million, with an incidence of 75.2% compared to 69.3% in the same period of 2020 and to 76.7% in the first semester of 2019. The decrease in margin compared to 2019 is entirely due to the higher incidence of the wholesale channel arising from the consolidation of the Stone Island brand.

Operating expenses and EBIT

Selling expenses were EUR 229.9 million compared with EUR 190.9 million in the first half of 2020, with 37.0% incidence on revenues (47.3% in H1 2020 and 36.3% in H1 2019). These selling expenses include EUR 106.5 million of rents costs (excluding IFRS 16 impacts) compared with EUR 89.1 million in the first half 2020. General and administrative expenses were EUR 106.7 million, with 17.2% incidence on revenues, compared with EUR 79.8 million in the first half of 2020 (19.8% on revenues) and EUR 84.8 million in the first half of 2019 (14.9% on revenues). This increase is mainly due to the investments in people made to strengthen the brands and to consolidate the future growth of the business.

The stock-based compensation plans, included in selling, general and administrative expenses, were equal to EUR 14.9 million in the first half of 2021, compared with EUR 11.7 million in the first half of 2020.

Marketing expenses were EUR 38.2 million, representing 6.1% of revenues, compared to 11.0% in the first half of 2020 and compared with 7.5% in H1 2019. Management expects an incidence of around 7% at year end, in line with FY 2019.

Depreciation and amortisation, excluding those related to right-of-use assets ex IFRS 16, were EUR 42.0 million compared to EUR 39.2 million in the first half of 2020. The increase is related to the investments made in the last 12 months.

EBIT was EUR 92.8 million, with a margin of 14.9%, compared with an operating loss of EUR 35.5 million in the first half of 2020, and with 18.0% margin in the first half of 2019.

In the first half of 2021, the net interests were EUR 9.7 million, compared with EUR 11.2 million in the corresponding period of 2020, mainly related to lease liabilities ex IFRS 16.

The tax rate was equal to 29.1% in the first half of 2021.

In the first half of 2021, net result was EUR 58.7 million, compared to a loss of EUR 31.6 million in the first half of 2020 and a profit of EUR 70.0 million in the first half of 2019.

The increase in intangible assets is entirely due to the effects of the PPA relating to the acquisition of Stone Island as explained in the table on page 9, which generated an increase in intangible assets in the Balance Sheet for EUR 1,222.8 million, of which EUR 775.5 million for the Stone Island brand and EUR 447.3 of Goodwill.

Net working capital

Net working capital was EUR 180.0 million, compared with EUR 99.2 million at 30 June 2020, equal to 9.6% of last-twelve-months revenues (6.8% at 30 June 2020 and 11.5% at 31 December 2020). The increase of net working capital reflects the consolidation of the results of the Stone Island brand, mainly influenced by the accounts receivables of the wholesale business model.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS OCCURRED DURING THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 2021

Integration of Stone Island into Moncler S.p.A.

In the first quarter of 2021 the activities aimed at finalising the aggregation of Sportswear Company S.p.A. ("SPW"), that holds Stone Island brand, in Moncler S.p.A., continued, as already announced to the market on 7 December 2020. More specifically, on 23 February 2021, in line with the provision of the framework agreement executed on 6 December 2020 between the Company and the SPW's shareholders referable to the Rivetti family (the "Rivetti Shareholders"), Moncler, the Rivetti Shareholders and Venezio Investments Pte Ltd (vehicle fully indirectly controlled by Temasek Holdings (Private) Limited) ("Venezio") signed the contractual documentation aimed at the purchase of the 100% of SPW's share capital by Moncler S.p.A.

On 25 March 2021 the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting of Moncler approved the proposal to increase the share capital against payment with exclusion of the pre-emptive right pursuant to Article 2441, paragraphs 5 and 6, of the Italian Civil Code, reserved for subscription to the Rivetti Shareholders and Venezio. As a result of the subscription and payment of the reserved share capital increase (a) Rivetex S.r.l. (a company referable to Carlo Rivetti) received no. 7,680,413 shares; (b) Mattia Rivetti Riccardi received no. 779,732 shares; (c) Ginevra Alexandra Shapiro received no. 779,732 shares; (d) Pietro Brando Shapiro received no. 779,732 shares; (e) Alessandro Gilberti received no. 711,507 shares; (f) Venezio received no. 4,599,050 shares. The essential information regarding the contractual documentation executed in the context of the transaction are available on Moncler' website (www.monclergroup.com, Section "Governance/Documents and procedures").

On 31 March 2021 the acquisition of the entire share capital of SPW was completed and Carlo Rivetti was appointed as member of Moncler S.p.A. Board of Directors.

Amendments to the By-laws

The Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting held on 25 March 2021, in addition to having approved the capital increase serving the transaction, approved the single proposal of amendments to the Company's By-laws. In particular, the Shareholders' Meeting resolved upon amending (i) Artt. 8 and 12 to delete the quorums to convene meetings and pass resolutions for the approval by the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting of resolutions on certain matters and application of guorums provided by applicable law; (ii) Art. 13 to replace the fixed number of directors (11 or 13), with the indication of a minimum number of 9 directors and a maximum number of 15 directors, and to increase the number of independent directors who shall be the majority of board members.

Partial demerger of Sportswear Company S.p.A. in favour of Moncler S.p.A.

On 18 May 2021, the Board of Directors of Moncler S.p.A. and its subsidiary SPW, that holds the Stone Island brand, approved the plan of partial demerger of SPW in favour of Moncler S.p.A.. The assets of SPW that, in connection with the de-merger, will be transferred to Moncler S.p.A. are the Stone Island brand and the set of assets and contracts that compose SPW Style and Marketing business divisions. On 29 June 2021, the Boards of Directors of both the companies adopted the decisions concerning the demerger pursuant to Art. 2505, paragraph 2, of the Italian Civil Code. The demerger is part of the broader integration between Moncler S.p.A. and SPW and then of the reorganisation process of the Moncler Group and would ensure the Moncler Group a greater operational, functional and economic efficiency. The demerger deed may be executed on December 2021, subject to the opinion of the Financial Administration on the request for ruling submitted by Moncler S.p.A. in relation to the workability of certain fiscal effects connected to the demerger.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS OCCURRED AFTER 30 JUNE 2021

No significant event occurred after 30 June 2021.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

The Covid-19 pandemic has continued into 2021, making medium-term forecasts more difficult. Although the vaccine campaign is moving along at a rapid pace, the potential for new variants of the virus to emerge has left the situation uncertain. This risk will continue to limit international travel, especially of the so-called "outside the region" tourists, who are so important to the industry where the Group operates, and could also lead to additional restrictive measures that might have a further negative impact on revenues. The Group has already demonstrated its ability to react quickly to changing scenarios, by adapting its long-range strategy to short-term uncertainties.

In this context, the Moncler Group management confirms that it will continue to implement all the necessary actions to develop the Moncler and Stone Island brands on the basis of the following strategic lines.

NEW VISION OF LUXURY. United by the vision "Beyond Fashion, Beyond Luxury", Moncler and Stone Island strive to interpret the constantly evolving cultural landscape by offering a new concept of luxury for the younger generations, built on experience, interaction, community, and the cross-fertilisation of different cultural codes.

GLOBAL DIMENSION AND UNIQUE POSITIONING. Over the years, Moncler has followed a growth strategy based on two key objectives: to become a global brand with a direct relationship with the consumer, and to strive for constant growth while maintaining a unique positioning that stays true to its DNA. This approach continues to inspire the Group, whose experience should help Stone Island in seeking its growth opportunities in the American and Asian markets and in the direct-to-consumer channel, while reinforcing the Brand unique positioning based on its defining philosophy of research and experimentation.

SUSTAINABLE GROWTH AND SHARED VALUE. The Moncler Group believes in sustainable, responsible, long-term development, in pursuit of shared value that meets the expectations of its stakeholders. Its Sustainability Plan is built on five strategic priorities: climate change, circular economy, responsible sourcing, valuing diversity, and support for local communities.

MULTICHANNEL DISTRIBUTION AND COMMUNICATION. The Moncler Group's multi-channel approach seeks a direct, interactive, and genuine relationship with its clients in every moment and touch points, knowing that pursuing such an objective requires the support of a consistent and integrated multichannel communication strategy.

At the core of the Group's distribution strategy is a vision of growth across all platforms, online and offline, where new ways of interacting with the consumer can be constantly explored.

In this respect, Stone Island is also embarking on a path that will give it greater control of its international markets, especially through the expansion of Direct-To-Consumer channels.

PERVASIVE DIGITAL CULTURE. Developing and implementing its strategy digitally is an increasingly important goal for a Group that believes in a "Digital First" approach. Everything from the conceptualization of collections to product development and event designing must be shaped and defined thinking of digital platforms as the first point of contact, before extending to other channels.

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

$1.2.1.$ RELEVANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements as of 30 June 2021 have been prepared in accordance with Art. 154-ter of Legislative Decree 58 of 24 February 1998 ("Testo Unico della Finanza – TUF"), as amended, and in conformity with IAS 34. They do not include all the information that would be necessary for the yearly consolidated financial statements and should be read together with consolidated financial statements as 31 December 2020, which were prepared in accordance with the international financial reporting standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and endorsed by the European Union.

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

It should be noted that the consolidated income statement, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of financial position, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows are prepared in accordance and are the same as those used in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended 31 December 2020. The following notes to the consolidated financial statements are presented in a summary format and do not include all the information required in an annual set of financial statements. It should be noted, as required by IAS 34, in order to avoid duplicating the information

already provided, the notes refer exclusively to the consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of financial position, consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows, whose nature and changes are essential in order to understand the financial position and results of operations of the Group.

The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements as of 30 June 2021 are made up of the consolidated income statement, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of financial position, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, the consolidated statement of cash flows and the notes thereto. The comparative information included in these consolidated financial statements, as required by IAS 34, compares 31 December 2020 for the consolidated statement of financial position and the half-year ended 30 June 2020 for the consolidated changes in equity, the consolidated statement of income, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and the consolidated statement of cash flows.

$1.2.2.$ PRESENTATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

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

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

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

According to the provisions of IAS 24 and Consob, the next few paragraphs describe related party transactions with the Group and their impact, if significant, on the consolidated statement of financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

$1.2.3.$ BASIS FOR PREPARATION

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

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

USE OF ESTIMATES AND VALUATIONS $124$

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

Compared to the Consolidated Financial Statements closed on 31 December 2020, the Management updated the estimates and the valuations in light of the events occurred in the first half of the year, the new business plans and the forecasts for the future.

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

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

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

Impairment of non-current assets and goodwill

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

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

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

Impairment of trade receivables

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

Allowance for returns

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

Impairment of inventory

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

Recoverability of deferred tax assets

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

Provision for losses and contingent liabilities

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

Lease liabilities and assets for right of use

The Group recognises the asset for the right of use and the liability for the lease. The asset for the right of use is initially valued at cost, and then subsequently at cost net of accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted to reflect the revaluation of the lease liability.

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

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

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

With regard to rent concessions obtained from landlords, the Group has adopted the practical expedient brought in by the amendment to IFRS 16 published by the IASB on 28 May 2020 and ratified on 12 October 2020.

Please note that Moncler Korea Inc., Moncler Istanbul Giyim ve Tekstil Ticaret Ltd. sti. and Moncler Japan Corporation, are fully consolidated, same as in the previous periods, without attribution of interest to third parties, following to the accounting treatment of the agreements between the partners.

$3.1.$ STONE ISLAND ACQUISITION

On March 31, 2021, Moncler S.p.A. acquired 100% of Sportswear Company S.p.A., the company that owns the Stone Island brand. The terms of the transactions are governed by a framework agreement signed between Moncler S.p.A., on one hand, and Rivetex S.r.l., on the other, (a company referable to Carlo Rivetti, owner of a stake equal to 50.10% of Sportswear Company S.p.A.'s capital) and other shareholders of Sportswear Company S.p.A., referable to the Rivetti family, owners of a stake equal to 19.90% of Sportswear Company S.p.A.'s capital.

In the 3-month period ended 30 June 2021, the Stone Island Group generated revenue of EUR 56,228 thousand (EUR 144,615 thousand from the beginning of the year) and a profit of EUR 9,846 thousand (EUR 26,856 thousand from the beginning of the year).

If the acquisition had taken in place on 1 January 2021, consolidated revenues would have been equal to EUR 709,855 thousand and the consolidated profit for the half year would have been equal to EUR 67,648 thousand. In calculating the aforementioned amounts, it was assumed that the fair value adjustments at the acquisition date would have been the same even if the acquisition had taken in place on 1 January, 2021.

Fair value measurement

The valuation methods used to determine the fair value of the main assets acquired are set out below.

Assets acquired Evaluation method
Brand Royalty Relief Method, on the basis of which flows are associated with the recognition
of a royalty percentage applied to the amount of revenue that can be generated by
the trademark
Order Backlog The valuation is based on the assumption of an indefinite useful life of the asset.
Multi excess earnings Method, which considers the present value of net cash flows that
are expected from customer orders already in the portfolio at the acquisition date,
excluding flows related to Contributory Assets Charges.

Deferred tax liabilities were calculated on the net identifiable assets arising from the Purchase Price Allocation (Brand and Order Backlog) considering a tax rate of 27.9%.

The Purchase Price Allocation was prepared by the company Moncler S.p.A. with the support of a leading consulting company.

(14.932)
(112, 327)
(7,436)
(100, 502)

The increase in both depreciation and amortization, in addition of Stone Island acquisition effect, is also due to investments made for the development of the distribution network, IT investments and to the investments for the expansion of the production site in Romania. The increase in amortisation of intangible assets is also due to the amortisation of the order backlog, which was recognised as a result of the aforementioned acquisition.

Please refer to comments made in paragraphs 5.1 and 5.3 for additional details related to investments made during the period.

The amortisation related to the right of use amounts to EUR 63.9 million, as explained in paragraphs $5.3.$

The increase in intangible assets reflects the acquisition of Stone Island; more specifically, the increase in the items Brands, Other intangible assets and Goodwill is due to the recognition of the Stone Island brand, the order backlog and the goodwill arising from the mentioned Purchase Price Allocation.

The increase in the item Software, net of the effects above reported, pertains to the investments in information technology for the management of the business and the corporate functions.

5.2. IMPAIRMENT OF INTANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS WITH AN UNDEFINED USEFUL LIFE AND GOODWILL

The items Brands, Other intangible fixed assets with undefined useful life and Goodwill deriving from previous acquisitions have not been amortised, but have been tested for impairment by management.

The business performance recorded in the periods under analysis and the updated forecasts of future trends are consistent with the assumptions made when testing the recoverability of the value of the goodwill and of the Moncler brand during the preparation of the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as at 31 December 2020. Therefore, no potential indicators of impairment were identified and no specific impairment tests were performed on these items.

Similarly, the Stone Island brand and the new goodwill arising from the recent acquisition, in the absence of events occurring in the second quarter of 2021 capable of affecting the valuation assumptions, were not tested for impairment for the purposes of these financial statements.

It is also underlined that the market capitalisation of the Company, based on the average price of Moncler share in the first half 2021, showed a significant positive difference with respect to the Group net equity, confirming again the value of the goodwill.

Excluding Stone Island acquisition effect, the increases in the first half of 2021 refer to new lease agreements for the opening or relocation of retail stores and the renewal of existing lease agreements, mainly in the European and Chinese markets.

In addition to the above mentioned effect arising from the application of the IFRS 16, the changes in property plant and equipment in the first half of 2021 show an increase in the items fixture and fittings, leasehold improvements and assets in progress and advances: all of these items are mainly related to the development of the distribution network and the investments for the expansion of the production site.

The business performance recorded in the periods under analysis and the updated forecasts of future trends are consistent with the assumptions made when testing the recoverability of the value of the rights of use during the preparation of the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as at 31 December 2020. Therefore, no potential indicators of impairment were identified and no specific impairment tests were performed on these items.

5.4. DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND DEFERRED TAX LIABILITIES

The balances of the Deferred tax assets and liabilities as at 30 June 2021, over the comparable period of last year are reported below:

Deferred taxation
(Euro/000) 30 June 2021 - 31 December 2020
Deferred tax assets
Deferred tax liabilities
174.028
(227,116)
150,832
(6.396)
Net amount (53,088) 144,436

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only when there is a law within a given tax jurisdiction, which provides for such right to offset.

The increase in the item Deferred tax liabilities is mainly due to the recognition of deferred tax liabilities on the Brand and the Order Backlog arising from the above-mentioned Purchase Price Allocation.

In view of the nature of the net deferred tax assets and the expectation of future taxable income under the new Business Plan, no indicators have been identified regarding the non-recoverability of the deferred tax assets recognised in the financial statements.

5.5. INVENTORY

Inventory as at 30 June 2021 amounts to EUR 309.0 million (EUR 202.8 million as at 31 December 2020) and is broken down as follows:

Inventory
(Euro/000) 30 June 2021 31 December 2020
Raw materials 93.131 88,252
Work-in-progress 60,615 14.197
Finished products 364.193 284,437
Inventories, gross 517.939 386,886
Obsolescence provision (208, 905) (184, 116)
Total 309,034 202,770

Finished products and work-in-progress in inventory in the first half of each year are impacted by seasonality; specifically, they tend to increase compared to December as the average production cost of the products of the Autumn/Winter collection, in stock in June, is higher than the average production cost of the products of the Spring/Summer collection, in stock in December.

The obsolescence provision is calculated using management's best estimate based on the season needs and the inventory balance based on passed sales trends through alternative channels and future sales outlook, consistent with the actions defined to support the volumes provided for in the Business Plan.

5.6. TRADE RECEIVABLES

Trade receivables as at 30 June 2021 amounted to EUR 139.0 million (EUR 174.1 million as at 31 December 2020) and are as follows:

Trade receivables
(Euro/000) 30 June 2021 31 December 2020
Trade account receivables 152,361 185,043
Allowance for doubtful debt (13, 242) (10, 699)
Allowance for discounts (157) (200)

5.16. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

Changes in shareholders' equity for the first half of 2021 and the comparative period are included in the consolidated statements of changes in equity.

As at 30 June 2021 4.106.680 treasury shares were held, equal to 1,5% of the share capital, for a total value of EUR 146.5 million.

The legal reserve and premium reserve pertain to the parent company Moncler S.p.A.

In the first half 2021 the parent company distributed dividends to the Group Shareholders for an amount of EUR 121.3 million (of which EUR 118.3 million paid in the first half 2021). In the first half of 2020 the parent company did not distribute dividends to the Group Shareholders.

The changes in share capital and share premium reserve derive from the reserved share capital increase relating to the transaction with the shareholders of Sportswear Company S.p.A. (n. 15.330.166 ordinary shares at a value of EUR 37.51 per share).

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

The change in retained earnings mainly relates to the allocation of 2020 result, the dividends distribution, the above-mentioned reclassification of the IFRS 2 reserve and the adjustment to the market value of the financial liabilities to non-banking third parties.

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

Other reserves include other comprehensive income comprising the translation reserve referred to foreign entities, the reserve for exchange rate risks hedging and the reserve for actuarial gains/losses. The translation reserve includes the exchange differences emerging from the translation of the financial statements of the foreign consolidated companies.

6. SEGMENT INFORMATION

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

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

7. SEASONALITY

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

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

Given the importance of outerwear, and of winter products in general, Moncler's DTC revenues are more concentrated in the first and mainly fourth quarters of each financial year. In the wholesale channel, revenues are concentrated in the third quarter, when third-party retailers are invoiced for Autumn/Winter collections and, at a lower level, in the first quarter, when third-party retailers are invoiced for Spring/Summer collections.

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

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

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

8. COMMITMENTS AND GUARANTEES GIVEN

8.1. COMMITMENTS

The Group's commitments pertain mostly to lease agreements related to temporary stores and popup stores with a term of less than one year, which therefore do not fall within the scope of application of IFRS 16.

As at 30 June 2021, the amount due for these contracts is equal to EUR 2,230 thousands (as at 30 June 2020 the amount was equal to zero).

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Based on information available to date, the Group believes that as of the date of the half-year condensed consolidated financial statements, the provisions set up are adequate to ensure that the half-year condensed consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the Group's financial position and results of operations.

The costs related to stock-based compensation plans are equal to EUR 14.9 million in the first half of 2021, compared with EUR 11.7 million in the first half of 2020.

On 16 April 2018 the Shareholders' meeting of Moncler approved the adoption of a stock grant plan entitled "2018-2020 Performance Shares Plan" ("2018 Plan") addressed to Executive Directors and/or Key Managers, and/or employees, and/or collaborators, and/or external consultants of Moncler S.p.A. and of its subsidiaries, which have strategically relevant roles or are otherwise capable of making a significant contribution, with a view of pursuing the Group's strategic objectives.

The object of the Plan is the free granting of the Moncler shares in case certain Performance Targets are achieved at the end of the vesting period of 3 years.

The Performance Targets are expressed base on the earning per share index ("EPS") of the Group in the Vesting Period, adjusted by the conditions of over/under performance.

The proposed maximum number of shares serving the Plan is equal to n. 2,800,000 resulting from the allocation of treasury shares.

The Plan provides for a maximum of 3 cycles of attribution; the first attribution cycle, approved during 2018, ended with the assignment of 1,365,531 Moncler Rights. The second attribution cycle, approved during 2019, ended with the assignment of 341,514 Moncler Rights.

As regards the first allocation cycle:

  • The 3-year vesting period ended with the approval of the Draft Financial Statements as at December 31, 2020.
  • The performance targets were met, together with the over-performance condition.

Report on review of condensed interim consolidated financial statements

To the Shareholders of Moncler S.p.A.

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Moncler Group comprising the income statement and the statement of comprehensive income, statement of financial position, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows and notes thereto, as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2021. The company's parent's directors are responsible for the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standard applicable to interim financial reporting (IAS 34), endorsed by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed interim consolidated financial statements based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with Consob (the Italian Commission for Listed Companies and the Stock Exchange) guidelines set out in Consob resolution no. 10867 dated 31 July 1997. A review of condensed interim consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISA Italia) and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

Moncler Group Report on review of condensed interim consolidated financial statements 30 June 2021

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Moncler Group as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2021 have not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standard applicable to interim financial reporting (IAS 34), endorsed by the European Union.
