GROUP STRUCTURE

doValue is southern Europe's leading provider of services for managing accounts receivable and real estate assets (servicing) for banks and investors, with assets under management of about €160 billion at the end of September 2020 (gross book value).

The structure of the Group at September 30, 2020, which is illustrated in the following figure, reflects the organic and external growth and diversification of doValue over 20 years of operations.

The Parent Company doValue SpA, a servicing company governed by Article 115 of the TULPS,1 performs servicing activities for NPL, UTP and real estate assets, provides ancillary services such as business information services through doData and master servicing through Italfondiario (ITF), and coordinates the subsidiaries' activities, which operate in a business area or a geographical market.

doValue (formerly doBank) was formed in 2016 from the combination of Italy's two largest independent servicers: UCCMB, originally part of the UniCredit Group, and Italfondiario, active since 2000 in partnership with leading specialist investors.

In July 2017, the doValue stock debuted on the stock exchange with an offer that was concluded in advance due to the strong interest shown by domestic and international institutional investors. doValue shares are traded under ISIN IT0001044996 and ticker symbol DOV [Bloomberg: DOV IM].

Between 2018 and 2019 doValue experienced a period of strong expansion and broad diversification, first entering the Greek market with a contract from the four local systemic banks and later moving into the wider southern European market, with the acquisition of Altamira Asset Management, a servicer active in Spain, Portugal and Cyprus and a leader in the management of real estate assets. doValue's development in the Italian market continued with the acquisition of new management contracts from banks and investors, in particular with the leadership in the provision of services for securitisations backed by the "GACS" government guarantees.

At the end of 2019 doValue announced an agreement for the acquisition of FPS, a Greek servicer with over €26 billion in assets under management, which enabled the Group to also become a leader in the promising Greek market. The completion of the FPS acquisition in June 2020 represents a further step forward in the achievement of the Group's 2020-2022 Business Plan, which seeks to strengthen doValue's leadership in the servicing market in southern Europe using an asset-light business model that does not require direct investments in asset portfolios and pursuing increasingly greater diversification in the credit value chain.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED INTERIM REPORT

Basis of preparation

The Consolidated Interim Report as at September 30, 2020, drawn up using the euro as the currency of account, has been prepared on a voluntary basis in order to provide additional periodic information to the annual and half-yearly financial report and ensure continuity with the past, as Legislative Decree 25/2016 implementing Directive 2013/50/EU eliminated the requirement for periodic financial reporting referred to March 31 and to September 30.

The Consolidated Interim Report as at September 30, 2020 has not been prepared in accordance with the international accounting standard applicable to interim reporting (IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting) in view of the fact that the doValue Group applies that standard in the preparation of its Consolidated Half-Year Report and not to its quarterly reporting, except in circumstances connected with the preparation of documentation for exceptional transactions.

Beginning with the Consolidated Half-Year Report at June 30, 2019, the Group no longer uses the schedules and the related rules of compilation established in Bank of Italy Circular no. 262/2005 and instead presents its schedules in accordance with the framework established by IAS 1.

The criteria for the recognition, measurement and derecognition of assets and liabilities and the recognition of costs and revenues used in this document have not been updated from those adopted in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The Consolidated Interim Report at September 30, 2020 has been prepared on a goingconcern basis in compliance with the provisions of IAS 1, and on an accrual basis in accordance with the principles of the relevance and materiality of accounting information, the prevalence of economic substance over legal form and with a view to facilitating consistency with future presentations.

The amounts stated are expressed in thousands of euros unless otherwise specified.

The Consolidated Interim Report as at September 30, 2020 is accompanied by the certification of the Financial Reporting Officer pursuant to Article 154-bis of Legislative Decree 58/1998.

DIRECTORS' INTERIM REPORT ON GROUP OPERATIONS

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 sector, ensuring the comparability of the figures presented.

The Group's business

The doValue Group operations are focused on the provision of services to banks and investors over the entire life-cycle of loans and real estate assets ("servicing").

doValue is southern Europe's leading servicer, with about €160 billion (gross book value) in assets under management and a track record spanning 20 years. Its business model is independent, aimed at all banks and investors in the market, and asset light: 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 NPE2 receivables or the sale of customers' real estate assets.

The Group provides services in the following categories:

  • NPL Servicing: the administration, management and recovery of loans utilising in court and out-of-court recovery processes for and on behalf of third parties for portfolios mainly consisting non-performing loans;
  • o within its NPL Servicing operations, doValue focuses on corporate bank loans of medium-large size and a high proportion of real estate collateral;
  • Real Estate Servicing: the management of real estate assets on behalf of third parties, including:
  • o Real estate collateral management: activities to develop or sell, either directly or through intermediaries, real estate owned by customers originally used to secure bank loans;
  • o Real estate development: analysis, implementation and marketing of real estate development projects involving assets owned by customers;
  • o Property management: management and maintenance of customers' real estate assets, with the aim of maximising profitability through sale or lease;
  • UTP Servicing: the administration, management and restructuring of loans classified as unlikely-to-pay, on behalf of third parties, with the aim of returning them to performing status. This activity is mainly carried out by the subsidiaries Italfondiario, which is governed under the provisions of Article 106 of the Consolidated Banking Act (financial intermediary) and doValue Greece, which governed under the provisions of Greek Law 4354/2015 (licensed NPL servicer supervised by the Bank of Greece);

2 NPE is the acronym for "non-performing exposures", i.e. exposures that credit institutions have in respect of uncollectable loans, also called impaired loans. NPEs are distinguished on the basis of differences in the probability of recovering the claim at maturity and include: past-due and/or overlimit exposures that are in arrears by more than 90 days, unlikely-to-pay positions (UTPs), which are exposures for which the bank considers it unlikely that the debtor will fully discharge its contractual obligations without recourse to actions such as the enforcement of guarantees or a loan restructuring plan, while bad loans (also called NPLs) are exposures to debtors in a state of insolvency or similar situations.

  • Early Arrears and Performing Loans Servicing: the management, primarily by doValue Greece, of performing loans or loans past due by fewer than 90 days, not yet classified as non-performing, on behalf of third parties, with the aim of supporting creditors and ensuring the rapid return of the positions to performing status;
  • Ancillary Data and Products: the collection, processing and provision of commercial, real estate and legal information (through the doData subsidiary) on debtors as well as the provision of other services strictly linked to loan recovery activities, including:
  • o Due Diligence: including the collection and organisation of information in data room environments as well as the analysis and assessment of loan portfolios for the preparation of business plans for collection and recovery activities;
  • o Master Servicing and Structuring: administrative, accounting, cash management and reporting services in support of the securitisation of loans; structuring services for securitisation transactions under Law 130/1999 as well as performing the role of authorised entity in securitisation transactions;
  • o Master Legal: the preparation and coordination of activities for the recovery of loans through court action, including the analysis of documentation, the preparation of legal opinions and assistance in the preparation of litigation;
  • o "Co-investment": co-investment in loan portfolios in partnership with major financial investors, where such activities are instrumental to obtaining servicing contracts. This business involves taking minority positions in securities issued by securitisation vehicles.

doValue, in its capacity as a special servicer, has received the following ratings: "RSS1-/CSS1- " from Fitch Ratings, and "Strong" from Standard & Poor's. The Servicer Ratings assigned to doValue are the highest of those assigned to Italian operators in the sector and were assigned to doValue and Italfondiario in 2008, before any other operator in this sector in Italy. The rating from Fitch Ratings was, moreover, renewed in September 2020, despite of the pandemic crisis, confirming the resilience of the doValue business model. In addition to the Special Servicer Rating, through Italfondiario the doValue Group also boasts a Master Servicer Rating confirmed in 2020 by Fitch Ratings at MS2+. In July 2020 doValue received a Corporate credit rating of BB with stable outlook from Standard & Poor's and Fitch.

¹⁾ In order to enhance the comparability of Gross Book Value (GBV) as of:

  • 9/30/2019 the values for doValue Greece have been included at the reference date

  • 12/31/2019 the values for doValue Greece have been included at the reference date

Key

Gross Book Value EoP Group/Italy: indicates the book value of the loans under management at the end of the reference period for the entire scope of Group/Italy, gross of any potential write-downs due to expected loan losses.

Collections for period Italy: 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 in last 12 months Italy: these are the recoveries for the 12 months prior to the reference date, which are used in intraannual periods in order to enable uniform comparison with the annual figure.

LTM collections in last 12 months Stock Italy: these are the recoveries for the 12 months prior to the reference date on the Stock under management.

LTM collections/GBV (Gross Book Value) EoP Italy: the ratio between total gross LTM collections and the period-end GBV of the total portfolio under management. This indicator represents another metric to analyse collections for the period and LTM in absolute terms, calculated in relation to the effectiveness rate of collections, i.e. the yield of the portfolio under management in terms of annual collections and, consequently, commission income from management activities.

LTM collections Stock/GBV (Gross Book Value) EoP Stock Italy: 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. Compared with the previous indicator LTM collections/GBV, this metric represents the effectiveness rate of recoveries normalised for the entry of new portfolios during the reference year.

Staff FTE/Total FTE: 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.

LTM collections/Servicing FTE Italy: the ratio between total LTM collections and the number of employees who perform servicing activities. The indicator provides an indication of the collection efficiency rate, i.e. the yield of each individual employee specialised in servicing activities in terms of annual collections on the portfolio under management.

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.

Non-recurring items: items generated in extraordinary operations such as corporate restructurings, acquisitions or disposals of entities, start-up of new businesses or entry into new markets.

EBITDA excluding non-recurring items: EBITDA attributable to core operations, excluding all items connected with extraordinary operations such as corporate restructurings, acquisitions or disposals of entities, start-up of new businesses or entry into new markets.

EBITDA Margin: obtained by dividing EBITDA by Gross Revenues.

EBITDA Margin excluding non-recurrent elements: obtained by dividing Ordinary EBITDA by Gross Revenues.

Earnings per share: calculated as the ratio between net profit for the period and the number of outstanding shares at the end of the period.

Earnings per share excluding non-recurring items: the calculation is the same as that for earnings per share, but the numerator is equal to net profit for the period excluding non-recurring items net of the associated tax effects.

EBITDA – Capex: calculated as EBITDA net of investments in fixed capital (including property, plant and equipment and intangible and financial assets) ("Capex"). 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 due to customers for the current accounts opened with the Group.

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.

Group results as at September 30, 2020

PERFORMANCE

Portfolio under management

As at the end of June 2020, the Group's assets under management (GBV) in the markets of Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece and Cyprus amounted to €159.1 billion, up 21.0% compared with the end of 2019 (€131.5 billion). This is mainly due to the inclusion of the assets managed by doValue Greece following the closure of the acquisition on June 5.

The following chart shows the geographical distribution of the GBV, giving the amount under management at September 30, 2020.

Developments in assets under management were characterised by the following changes in flows from new customers, equal to €5.5 billion, as follows:

  • new contracts of Altamira Asset Management totalling €5.1 billion, and in particular:
  • o a contract with Alpha Bank in Cyprus in the amount of €4.2 billion, announced on October 14, 2019, the onboarding of which was completed at the end of March 2020;
  • o a portfolio totalling €0.8 billion from a securitisation of loans by an investor in Spain;
  • o a contract with Banco Santander in Portugal for real estate brokerage services for the management of the customer's assets (REO services), for a total amount of €0.1 billion.
  • new contracts won by the subsidiary Italfondiario as the exclusive servicer of a portfolio of unlikely-to-pay ("UTPs") positions in the amount of €0.4 billion.

The above flows were accompanied by an additional €3.1 billion from existing customers as follows:

  • new contracts of €0.6 billion from the forward flow agreement with UniCredit (Italy);
  • new contracts of €2.5 billion from forward flow agreements with Banco Santander (Spain), Alpha Bank (Cyprus) and Cooperative Central Bank (CCB, Cyprus);

In addition to this, onboarding continued during the period for the portfolio managed by Eurobank Financial Planning Services SA (hereinafter also "FPS"), whose name was changed to doValue Greece following its acquisition by doValue, equal to €26.4 billion.

GBV declined over the period due to transfers by a bank customer amounting to €1.3 billion.

Assets under management increased further compared with the situation already described due to the acquisition of additional contracts during the third quarter and currently still in the on-boarding phase. The new positions regard:

  • the ICON portfolio, in Greece, with a total value of around €2.6 billion, for which a Memorandum of Understanding was signed with Bain Capital Credit;
  • the agreement with Iccrea Banca to service a portfolio of non-performing loans worth around €2 billion (gross book value), of which around €0.4 billion already under management.

The following charts show the composition of the portfolio under management in terms of geographical diversification, type of asset/business and main customers:

Group collections and sales in the period amounted to €2.8 billion, compared with €2.2 billion at September 30, 2019. The increase is essentially attributable to the full contribution of the Altamira contracts and four months of FPS contracts (not present in 2019). Collections break down by geographical area as follows: €0.9 billion in "Italy", €1.2 billion in "Iberia" (Spain and Portugal) and €0.7 billion in "Greece & Cyprus".

Performance

With the primary objective of safeguarding the health of employees, doValue has proactively implemented all necessary measures to prevent and manage the current Coronavirus emergency as indicated by government decrees and the health authorities. The Group's full operation has been and continues to be ensured by the effective application of remote working methods. These containment measures, which have been adopted in all the markets in which the Group operates, especially between March and May, have in any case interrupted important services necessary for servicing loans and real estate assets, notably the courts and services supporting real estate transactions.

In the first nine months of 2020, the doValue Group posted gross revenues of €280.8 million, up 20% over the €233.4 million in the same period of 2019, due mainly to the full contribution to performance for the period of Altamira Asset Management, which was only consolidated as from the third quarter in the comparative figures, and to the contribution of doValue Greece, which was acquired last June. The third quarter of the year contributed more than proportionately to developments in gross revenues, registering gross revenues of €116 million, confirming the progressive normalization of the Group's activities, which had been significantly impacted by the spread of the coronavirus pandemic in April-June 2020.

On a pro-forma aggregate basis, including effects of the acquisitions of Altamira Asset Management and doValue Greece from the beginning of each period, revenues would amount to €335.4 million, a decrease of about 29% on the €469.8 million posted in the first nine months of 2019. This decline is connected with effects of the coronavirus pandemic on economic activity in general and, as noted, on servicing activities in particular. This negative performance, which is concentrated in the second quarter of 2020 due to the full application of lockdown measures in southern Europe, began to improve progressively from June 2020.

Revenues from servicing NPE and REO assets amounted to €255.2 million, an increase of 24% compared with the previous year, when such revenues totalled €206.6 million. The first nine months of 2020 benefited from the contribution of FPS (June-September) of €38.5 million and from the full contribution of Altamira Asset Management in both the NPE and Real Estate areas (€121.6 million compared with €60.6 million in same period of the previous year, when the contribution was limited to the third quarter only). The increase in revenues registered in 2020 would be even larger if the non-recurring revenues in respect of indemnities received for portfolio transfers carried out mainly by trhee client banks, concentrated in particular in the first and third quarter of 2019, were excluded from the calculation.

The positive trend in NPE base fees (compared with the same period of 2019), despite virtually no change in the average fees on the GBV of assets under management, is related to two factors:

  • the greater weight of this component of revenues in absolute terms and on average - in the markets of southern Europe, where Altamira and doValue Greece operate, as compared with Italy, a factor that can further strengthen the future visibility of the Group's revenues, particularly with the current external environment characterised by greater uncertainty due to the effects of the Coronavirus;
  • the growth in business for the subsidiary doValue Hellas, which is responsible for managing a €1.5 billion NPL portfolio assigned by the four systemic banks in Greece.

In the Italy segment of NPLs, collections for the last 12 months as a ratio to end-of-period (EoP) gross book value (GBV) — given by the formula "LTM collections/EoP GBV" — came to 2.1%, a decline compared with the 2.4% registered as at September 2019, reflecting the temporary adverse impact of the coronavirus pandemic on collection activities, but stable compared with the end of June 2020. Excluding new management contracts, the indicator "LTM collections stock/EoP GBV stock" was 2.1%, with a similar decrease from the 2.5% posted in the analogous period of 2019 and again at December 2019.

Revenues from co-investment include the €372 thousand contribution (€477 thousand in 2019) from revenues on the ABS securities for the two securitisations Romeo SPV and Mercuzio Securitisation.

The contribution of revenues from ancillary products and minor activities, in the amount of €25.3 million (€26.3 million at September 2019), was more significant and can be attributed to the following:

  • within Italy, mainly 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;
  • for Altamira, especially to services provided in the areas of rentals, real estate development, and diversified advisory and portfolio management activities.

These revenues account for 9% of total gross revenues for the period and are broadly unchanged on the previous year, decreasing by about €1 million (4%).

Net revenues amounted to €247.0 million, an increase of 18% from the €209.8 million of 2019.

The following items were of note during the period:

  • the increase, compared with the previous year, in NPE outsourcing fees, which increased by a total of 21% due exclusively to the increase in the scope of consolidation with Altamira and FPS. Considering doValue only, compared with 2019, these fees decreased by 45%, in line with the objective of reducing the use of outsourcing and with rationalisation efforts implemented over the last year;
  • the consolidation of REO outsourcing fees, in the amount of €11.0 million, related to the increase in assets under management following the acquisition of Altamira Asset Management, consistent with developments in the business;
  • ancillary outsourcing fees amounted to €7.8 million, compared with €6.0 million in 2019, which is again the direct result of the consolidation of Altamira Asset Management for the entire period under review. However, considering doValue only, these fees recorded a slight increase, equal to about 6%, compared with the first nine months of 2019.

Operating expenses amounted to €178.9 million, an increase of 37% compared with the €131.1 million of the first nine months of 2019, due to the increase in the scope of consolidation with the inclusion of Altamira and doValue Greece.

More specifically, of the €47.9 million increase, €32.5 million is attributable to staff expenses and €15.4 million to administrative expenses. Excluding the impact of the Altamira and doValue Greece consolidations, costs decreased significantly on the whole, falling by 21% (-€21.7 million), which testifies to the effectiveness of the cost containment strategy implemented, concentrated in particular on the variable component of staff expenses.

Staff expenses increased by 36% compared with the same period of 2019. Excluding the impact of Altamira and doValue Greece, the significant decrease of 20% (down €14.5 million) was due to the twofold effect of:

  • a reduction in the variable component of remuneration for the period, attributable to the temporary negative impact of the coronavirus pandemic on performance compared with targets;
  • a reduction in the size of the workforce as a result of the continuation of the costefficiency plan defined in the 2019-2022 Business Plan.

Administrative expenses increased by 37% compared with the first nine months of 2019. Here, too, excluding the contribution of Altamira and doValue Greece, the aggregate posted a decrease of 22% (down €7.2 million) due to:

  • the full effect of projects announced in the 2018 plan aimed at achieving greater efficiency in the management of operating processes (especially IT and business process outsourcing);
  • a sharp focus on cost management;
  • the rationalisation in the number of directly managed local offices, which saw the closure in September and October 2019 of eight local offices, while one new office was opened in Verona and six others were opened under co-working agreements.

These items reflect the initial effects of the transfer to Dock Joined in Tech (a subsidiary of IBM) of the doSolution business unit to manage Group IT systems with effect from July 1, 2020, for a period of ten years. In addition, in response to the COVID-19 epidemic, the company has implemented a comprehensive plan for the further rationalisation of operating costs by taking full advantage of the cost flexibility inherent in the doValue business model.

In line with the two previous years, operating expenses in the period again include a number of non-recurring items (NRIs), which are shown as adjustments to EBITDA to facilitate comparison between periods and the interpretation of structural profitability for the Group.

These non-recurring items, which were also found in the first nine months of 2019 in the amount of €11.8 million, totalled €8.2 million and mainly concern:

  • (i) costs related to the acquisition of the servicer doValue Greece for financial advisory and due diligence activities connected with the acquisition;
  • (ii) costs related to the project to acquire the servicer Altamira Asset Management in respect of deferred bonuses for the company's management team;
  • (iii) the project to reorganise the Group as defined in the 2018-2020 Business Plan and

work to rationalise Altamira-related business processes.

EBITDA excluding non-recurring items decreased by 16% to €76.2 million (€90.6 million in the first nine months of 2019), posting a margin on revenues of 27% (39% in the same period of 2019). The decrease in EBITDA (down €14.4 million) is mainly attributable to the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, which since March has prevented the smooth operation of recovery activities, such as the aforementioned closure of courts and most of the services supporting real estate operations. As with revenues, EBITDA for the period benefited more than proportionately from the contribution of the third quarter of the year, in which the Group posted EBITDA excluding non-recurring items of €41.1 million, greater than the first two quarters of 2020 conbined.

In aggregate, including the effects of acquisitions of Altamira Asset Management e doValue Greece at the beginning of January 2019 and excluding non-recurring items (€104.5 million), EBITDA would be 47% lower than the €197.6 million posted in the first nine months of 2019, due to the effects of the coronavirus containment measures.

Including non-recurring expenses, EBITDA comes to €68.0 million, around 14% lower than the same figure for the first nine months of 2019 (€78.8 million).

Group EBIT was €11.3 million, compared with €39.4 million in 2019. This contraction reflects, in line with expectations, an increase in the amortisation of intangible assets, mainly the contract with Santander and Sareb deriving from the acquisition of Altamira Asset Management. EBT was negative €0.9 million, compared with a positive €35.6 million recorded in the same period of the previous year, including the financial expense connected with the financing received for the Altamira acquisition and interest expense on the bridge loan for the acquisition of doValue Greece, which was then replaced by the bond issued on August 4, 2020.

EBT includes non-recurring expenses in the amount of €14.3 million related to:

  • €5.5 million in costs for early termination incentives;
  • €0.4 million release of 2019 funds related to a dispute with Sareb;
  • €1.0 million for the time value of the put option and earn-out (€0.7 million related to the Altamira transaction and €0.3 million of the time value of the earn-out connected with the doValue Greece transaction);
  • non-recurring costs included in operating expenses indicated above.

Net write-downs on property, plant and equipment and intangibles amounted to €49.7 million, a significant increase from 2019 (up €17.3 million). This aggregate mainly includes the net adjustments on the Altamira servicing agreements, as well as the amortisation of the same, which are classified as intangible assets given the particular characteristics of the servicing market in Spain, which, in the past, saw the leading operators investing in long-term asset management agreements. As regards doValue Greece servicing agreements, taking account of the recent acquisition date, measurement activities are still in progress and no allocation of the difference between the consideration for the acquisition of the investment and the net

book value of the investee company's assets and liabilities has yet been made. The purchase price allocation process, which involves allocating the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the acquired company and determining goodwill as the difference between the value of these assets and liabilities and the consideration paid, will be completed by June 5, 2021 (one year from the transaction). Therefore, no write-downs/write-backs have been recognised in profit or loss as at September 30, 2020 on the intangible assets of the subsidiary doValue Greece.

The balance for the item also includes the amortisation of lease agreements following the introduction of IFRS 16 as of January 1, 2019. The total impact on 2020 was €7.9 million, whereas for the first nine months of 2019 it was €3.5 million. The remainder of amortisation primarily concerns software licenses connected with technology investments made by the Group during the period to upgrade the IT platform.

Net provisions for risks and charges totalled €7.1 million, a decrease (€0.4 million) from the same period of the previous year. This is mainly attributable to provisions for termination incentives paid to employees (€5.5 million granted to employees in Italy and within Altamira and doValue Greece) participating in the Company's plan, in line with the targets of the 2020- 2022 business plan. This was partially offset by reversals of provisions set aside in previous years that are no longer necessary.

Net financial interest and commissions amounted to €12.4 million, an increase on the €4.9 million recognised at September 2019, reflecting the financial expense associated with the acquisition of Altamira, the increase in expense associated with the bond linked to the acquisition of doValue Greece as well as the effects of the expansion of the scope of consolidation.

Income tax for the period amounted to €7.9 million despite the loss before tax of €0.9 million posted for the period. The item was mainly impacted by the accounting treatment of the Spanish subsidiary Altamira due to the failure to record - pending the definition of a new business plan - deferred tax assets on the Spanish subsidiary Altamira Asset Management SA to cover the loss for the period.

The tax rate, calculated by excluding non-recurring items and normalising the effects of the deferred tax assets of Altamira SA and of the DTA charge, comes to 23%, compared with 25% for the same period of 2019. In this regard, the impact of the foreign subsidiaries (and of Cyprus in particular) on the normalised tax rate is evident, given that they enjoy a lower overall fiscal burden than that of the Italian companies.

Net profit attributable to Parent Company shareholders excluding non-recurring items is equal to €3.5 million, compared with €39.4 million reported in the first nine months of 2019, a substantial improvement on the loss of €6.1 million posted at June 30, 2020. Including nonrecurring items, the result is a net loss of €8.1 million attributable to the shareholders of the Parent Company, compared with a profit of €13.3 million in the same period of the previous year.

SEGMENT REPORTING

The international expansion of doValue in the broader market of southern Europe with the acquisition first of Altamira and then FPS (now doValue Greece) has prompted a revision of the manner in which management assesses and analyses our business, transitioning from a segmentation by customers and business lines to a geographical breakdown.

This classification is tied to specific factors of the entities included in each category and to the type of market. As a result, the geographical areas defined are: Italy, Greece and Cyprus, and Iberia (Spain and Portugal).

Based on these criteria, the following table shows the revenues and EBITDA for the period for each of these business segments.

For the first nine months of 2020, gross revenues totalled €280.8 million and EBITDA excluding non-recurring items came to €76.2 million.

The Italy segment accounts for 31% of EBITDA excluding non-recurring items for the Group (compared with 34% for Iberia and 36% for Greece & Cyprus), whereas the margin at the level of EBITDA excluding non-recurring items is lower in the Italy segment (22%) than in the other two segments, which are equal to 40% for Greece & Cyprus and 24% for Iberia.

The RESTATED balance sheet and income statement amounts as at December 31, 2019 were restated based on the final outcome of the Altamira Asset Management purchase price allocation.

Financial assets went from €48.6 million to €54.6 million, an increase of €6.0 million. A breakdown of financial assets is reported in the following table.

The increase in debt securities includes €13.7 million from the subscription of notes from the securitisation of NPEs with a government guarantee ("Asset Protection Scheme", also known as "Hercules"), similar to the GAGS mechanism in Italy, as part of the acquisition of doValue Greece, which is described in the section Significant events in the period.

Property, plant and equipment amounted to €39.1 million, an increase on the €23.9 million registered at the end of 2019. The increase is attributable to the contribution of the newly acquired company doValue Greece, in the amount of €8.9 million, and investments mainly made by Altamira Asset Management for the renewal of the Right of Use relating to the Madrid office.

Intangible assets decreased from €289.6 million to €257.5 million, a decline of €32.1 million, reflecting the net effect of amortisation for the period in the amount of €39.6 million and new acquisitions, mainly software, in the amount of €7.2 million.

With regard to deferred tax assets, following the acquisition of Altamira in 2019, the Group recognised temporary differences on the deductibility of write-downs, depreciation and amortisation of non-current assets (€23 million) and of the tax loss deriving from write-downs of intangible assets at the time of acquisition of control by doValue (€7 million).

The following is a breakdown of tax liabilities:

TOTAL 37,459 32,806 4,653 14%

The amount of deferred tax liabilities reported here refers to the effect of the Altamira business combination, and in particular, the purchase price allocation process as the tax effect of the adjustments made to the initial consolidation values of the acquired company.

The other tax payables relate to the liability of VAT (€10.6 million) and withholding tax (€2.1 million).

Financial liabilities – due to banks amounted to €581.4 million as at September 30, 2020. The item mainly includes the residual liability of €332.0 million in respect of the 5-year facility loan obtained for the acquisition of Altamira, as well as €265.0 million in respect of the principal amount of the senior bond issued on August 4 this year, bearing an annual rate of 5%, for the acquisition of Eurobank FPS (now doValue Greece).

The initial nominal amount of the facility loan is €415.0 million, bearing a variable rate of 2.5% as at September 30, 2020, linked to 6-month Euribor and a number of financial covenants.

Other financial liabilities 11 637 (626) (98)%
TOTAL 95,823 69,642 26,181 38%

Lease liabilities include the discounted value of future lease payments, in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 16.

The liability for the earn-out is connected (i) with the Altamira operation in the amount of €17.7 million and represents a portion of the acquisition price that will be defined within two years from the date of the agreement at end of December 2020, and (ii) with the acquisition of Eurobank FPS (€18.6 million), linked to the achievement of a number of EBITDA targets over a ten-year horizon. Any earn-out payments will not be due before 2024.

The liability for the put option on non-controlling interests regards the option for the purchase of residual non-controlling interests of Altamira, expiring in 2021.

All the liabilities indicated were recalculated as at September 30, 2020.

Provisions for risks and charges amounted to €14.8 million, compared with €25.7 million at the end of 2019, a decrease of €10.9 million due to the combined effect of new allocations, uses and releases in respect of litigation and out- of-court disputes settled during the period and for staff incentive provisions.

The figure for the period of €103.9 million shows an improvement of €26.1 million compared with December 2019 and €19.3 million compared with September 2019, while it is substantially unchanged on the end of June 2020 (€102 million).

This trend is particularly commendable if we also take account of the deterioration in the general macroeconomic environment brought on by the coronavirus pandemic. It benefits from the strategic choice of the Group, which, thanks to a policy of diversification, was able to limit the adverse impact on cash generation by monitoring net working capital.

G Bonds issued (252,568) - -
H Net financial position (E)+(F)+(G) (411,126) (236,465) (257,464)

The net financial position at September 30, 2020 amounted to €(411.1) million, compared with €(236.5) million at the end of 2019 and €(257.5) million at the end of September 2019. The item shows a significant increase compared with the previous periods and is the result of the acquisition of Eurobank FPS, which was financed with the issue of a guaranteed senior bond of €265.0 million. In partial compensation, the cash position increased to €170.3 million, only partially linked to the contribution of the newly acquired company.

It should be noted that the trend of the current net financial position is significantly improving and stands at €85.5 million in September against €(152.2) million in June 2020, thanks to the refinancing operation of the bridge loan carried out in August.This indicator, if compared with the figures at the end of 2019 (equal to €48.5 million) and September 2019 (equal to €68.2 million), underlines the correct balance of the Group's capital structure.

Change in Net Financial Position (174,661) (325,375)

Operating cash flow amounted to €69.9 million, compared with €86.4 million in the same period of 2019. This performance was reflected in good cash generation in the period despite the temporary contraction in business due to the coronavirus pandemic. This was made possible by the close attention paid to managing working capital, which in the period generated €35.1 million in cash, compared with 32.6 million in the year-earlier period.

Income taxes paid increased slightly over the €8.2 million of the corresponding period of 2019 to €9.2 million.

Investments in financial assets amounted to €22.1 million, mainly including the following:

  • the investment of €14.2 million in junior and mezzanine securities of 3 securitisations, involving €7.5 billion in NPEs (the "Cairo Project"), backed by a government guarantee ("Asset Protection Scheme", also known as "Hercules");
  • the payment of interest on the €415 million half-yearly instalment of the facility loan (€332 million of residual principal as at September 30), obtained for the acquisition of the servicer Altamira;
  • interest paid in the period on finance leases, pursuant to IFRS 16;
  • the recovery of €6.5 million on an opportunistic and non-recurring short-term investment made at end of December 2019 in a non-performing loan portfolio.

Equity investments, equal to €211.4 million, reflects the effect of the net disbursement connected with the acquisition of the servicer doValue Greece, which closed on June 5, 2020, and the investment at the end of September to acquire 49% of Altamira Cyprus, equal to an amount of about €4,5 million.

Dividend paid includes the dividend distributed by Altamira to the non-controlling shareholder Banco Santander (15%).

Net cash flow for the period was a negative €(174.7) million, an improvement on the negative €(325.4) million recorded in September 2019 (which was affected by the outlay for the acquisition of Altamira) despite the sharp deterioration in general macroeconomic conditions.

Significant events during the period

ONBOARDING OF NEW LOAN PORTFOLIOS

During the first nine month of the year, in line with the objectives of the Business Plan, the main operations involving the portfolio under management saw the on-boarding of about €5.5 billion in new positions under an agreement signed with Alpha Bank in Cyprus in October 2019, and a new contract for an NPL portfolio originated in Spain and transferred from one of doValue's leading customers in the local market, an international investor specialising in distressed credit.

In addition, about €3.1 billion in new assets were received for management from existing customers under long-term contracts signed in Spain, Italy and Cyprus.

NEW CREDIT SERVICING AGREEMENTS

In the period between January and September 2020, doValue's commercial initiatives have produced a significant volume of new credit servicing agreements, which, in the coming months, once onboarding procedures have been completed, will expand the portfolio under management and support the Group's future cash generation.

The most representative servicing agreements include:

  • an agreement with Iccrea Banca in Italy for €1.6 billion,
  • an agreement with an investor in Spain for €0.8 billion, and
  • an agreement with Bain Capital Credit in Greece for €2.6 billion.

ACQUISITION OF EUROBANK FINANCIAL PLANNING SERVICING (FPS), NOW DOVALUE GREECE

On June 5, 2020 the doValue Board of Directors announced that it had completed the acquisition of an 80% stake in Eurobank Financial Planning Services (FPS), now doValue Greece. The remaining 20% is still held by Eurobank.

The operation also includes the exclusive management of future flows from Early Arrears and NPEs originated by Eurobank in Greece for a period of 10 years, thus consolidating doValue's role as the strategic long-term partner of a systemic bank.

The consideration paid by doValue amounted to around €211 million. The amount was adjusted from the €248 million (€310 million for 100%) cited at the launch of the transaction in order to reflect contractual provisions concerning the liquidity position of FPS, the actual servicing portfolio at end 2019 and the net economic benefits accrued to date during 2020. Moreover, the operation envisaged an earn-out up to €50 million (€40 million for the 80% acquired by doValue) connected with the achievement of a number of EBITDA targets over a 10-year horizon. Any earn-out payments will not fall due before 2024 and will depend on outperforming current business plan expectations.

The transaction was financed with a bank credit line granted by a pool of national and

international banks and structured as a bridge to long-term financing with no amortisation (a bullet loan), equal to €265.0 million.

As part of the transaction, a total of €14.2 million in mezzanine and junior securities were also subscribed. They were issued by three SPVs for loan securitisations with senior notes backed by government guarantees ("Asset Protection Scheme", also known as "Hercules").

ASSIGNMENT OF CORPORATE RATING BY S&P AND FITCH

On July 10, 2020, the Company announced that the rating agencies S&P Global Ratings and Fitch Ratings had both assigned a "BB" Corporate rating with stable outlook to doValue.

doValue believes that the ratings confirm the Group's leadership in the European market, the presence of long-term management contracts and a sound profitability growth profile.

PRICING OF THE SENIOR SECURED BOND

On July 31, 2020, the Company announced that the pricing of the secured senior bond had been conducted for a total principal amount of €265 million, at an annual fixed rate of 5.00%, with an issue price equal to 98.913% and yield of 5.25%. This is the first debt capital markets transaction carried out by doValue.

The bond will mature on August 4, 2025 and has been reserved to qualified investors. The funds raised with the issue will be used by doValue for the early repayment of the entire senior secured bridge loan in the amount of €265 million (plus accrued interest), which was obtained by the Company on June 3, 2020, as part of the acquisition of FPS. As from the issue date, the bond will be listed by the Luxembourg Stock Exchange on the Euro MTF multilateral trading facility.

OUTSOURCING OF FUNCTIONS - DOVALUE CHOOSES IBM AS A PARTNER FOR DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION AND MANAGEMENT OF THE GROUP'S IT SYSTEMS

On July 3, 2020 the Company announced that it had selected IBM as a partner for technological innovation and the management of the ICT and back-office processes of its Italian operations. Through its subsidiary Dock Joined in Tech, IBM will develop a cognitive data platform, thanks to which doValue will be able to supply all customers of in the credit industry with data-driven value-added services, following through on recently announced initiatives in this area.

The agreement envisages the transfer to Dock of doSolutions, the IT & Operations company of the doValue Group, which provides IT and back-office services. The remaining staff of doSolutions will subsequently be integrated into doValue.

ORDINARY AND EXTRAORDINARY SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING

The Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting, in a single call, was held on May 26, 2020.

In the extraordinary session, the Shareholders' Meeting amended Articles 4 and 5 of the Articles of Association. The amendments (i) allow for, within the limits permitted by law, the publication and disclosure of information relating to properties that are the subject of out-of-court activities carried out by the Company (Article 4); and (ii) grant the Board of Directors the power to carry out a divisible capital increase, in one or more instalments, with the exclusion of pre-emption rights, pursuant to Article 2443 and 2441, paragraph 4, second sentence, of the Italian Civil

Code, i.e. for consideration in cash, by issuing, in one or more tranches, a number of ordinary shares not exceeding 10% of the total number of shares in circulation at the date of any exercise of the delegated powers (Article 5).

In the ordinary session, the Shareholders' Meeting:

  • approved the Group's consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2019 and the separate financial statements of doValue S.p.A.. Profit was allocated entirely to retained earnings;
  • approved the Remuneration Report and the 2020 Incentive Plan;
  • authorised the Board of Directors to purchase treasury shares and to dispose of them. In compliance with applicable regulations and in such a way as to guarantee equal treatment of shareholders, the resolution concerns the purchase, in one or more transactions, of up to a maximum of 8,000,000 ordinary shares of the Company, equal to 10% of the total, for a period of 18 months from the date of approval of the Shareholders' Meeting.

For further information, see the Company's website, www.dovalue.it, in the section "Governance - Shareholders' Meeting".

Significant events after the end of the period

NEW CREDIT SERVICING AGREEMENT

On October 29, 2020, the Group announced that the subsidiary Italfondiario had reached an agreement for the exclusive management as servicer of a portfolio of unlikely-to-pay ("UTP") loans with a gross book value of approximately €450 million.

The total volume of doValue's new servicing contracts in southern Europe in 2020 following this agreement amounts to nearly €9 billion, approaching the year-end pre-COVID target of around €10 billion, confirming the positive outlook of the credit management and real estate services market.

Outlook for operations

The current economic situation linked to the effects of the coronavirus, which is not expected to involve structural changes in the dynamics of the sector, calls for a cautious approach to short-term developments in a context of limited visibility and despite the encouraging indications that emerged from collection trends beginning in June and continuing through September 2020.

More specifically, despite the operational continuity of doValue operations in all its markets, the Group is carefully monitoring the introduction of new measures to contain the spread of the coronavirus, the reduced activity of the legal system – which is gradually improving but still not at an optimal level - and public services in general, together with decisions on bank loan repayment moratoriums and developments in the real estate sector, which can impact the time needed to manage positions and collections.

The seasonality of the Group's collections, which are concentrated on the last quarter of the year, our significant geographical, product and customer diversification and the flexibility of costs, in particular outsourcing costs and the employee incentive plan, are factors that mitigate the short-term adverse impacts of the crisis and support the moderate and progressive recovery now under way, as underscored by developments in the third quarter of 2020, in line with current consensus expectations.

Finally, we believe that the doValue business model is able to respond to the various phases of the economic cycle with the expansion of assets under management or collections, respectively, during a contraction or expansion of the cycle itself, consistent with the Group's mission to support banks, investors, companies and individuals in all phases of credit management, fostering the sustainable development of the financial system.

Main risks and uncertainties

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, current financial market conditions and the consequences of any economic and financial effects of the spread of the coronavirus pandemic are inevitably shadowed by uncertainty, even in the presence of stable macroeconomic conditions. The Group believes in any case that at present there is no doubt regarding its ability to continue to operate as a going concern.

As underscored in the recently approved report, despite being the period most affected by the negative effects of the COVID-19 health emergency and the related impact on global economic activities, the Company generated EBITDA of about €68 million, or over €76 million excluding non-recurring items. This performance testifies to the sound strategy being pursued by the Group, both from the point of view of the rationalisation of costs and geographical diversification. The Group's liquidity available at end of October is about €194 million and unused credit lines total a further €80 million. Finally, during 2020, the Group obtained new credit management contracts amounting to more than €9 billion and on July 1 signed an agreement to manage an additional €2.6 billion in loans in Greece.

Impacts and effects of the COVID-19 epidemic

The international health emergency declared in January 2020 by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as a consequence of the spread of coronavirus has caused a significant slowdown in activity in the period, and in some cases the interruption of economic and commercial activity in multiple sectors.

Market turbulence persists, which amplifies the level of uncertainty of the estimates of possible developments in terms of the economic impact of the spread of the coronavirus around the world, Europe and Italy. Short-term macroeconomic forecasts will therefore be subject to changes that are currently not precisely quantifiable.

As from end of February, the doValue Group promptly activated the Business Continuity & Crisis Management Committee in order to make the decisions required by the evolving situation. The main measures, promptly adopted, were focused on supporting the companies' employees and associates, both in Italy and abroad, in dealing with the COVID-19 emergency, protecting first and foremost their health and well-being and enabling them to keep in touch with the organisation:

  • a freeze on travel and promotion of remote meetings;
  • an analysis of flexible working in order to assess the technological requirements in terms of equipment (laptops and smartphones) and the capacity of servers and data network lines accessing the Data Centres, with the establishment of monitoring arrangements for the communication network and external access systems to ensure timely intervention in case of critical issues;
  • the authorisation for flexible working, progressively extended to all Italian branches as well as the foreign offices of subsidiaries;
  • the supply of IT equipment, while increasing service-desk services, in order to ensure faster delivery and more appropriate telephone support and advice services;
  • the adoption of new "unified communication" systems, such as Skype and Microsoft Team, so as to facilitate meetings and video calls between users of flexible working arrangements;
  • the activation of on-line courses and seminars on flexible working practices in order to support staff in managing operational changes as effectively as possible;
  • the supply of on-line training courses on issues such as COVID-related health & safety.

These measures have enabled almost all companies in Italy and abroad to continue their activities using flexible working approaches, while ensuring full business operations and all critical processes, while maximising safety for our people.

After conclusion of the maximum safety phase and with the beginning of the gradual reopening of operational offices, both in Italy and abroad, additional measures were adopted to safeguard health and safety, as well as the well-being of people:

  • the installation of sanitising product dispensers in all premises
  • the posting of notices and warnings on rules of conduct in order to minimise the risks of contagion from COVID-19 in all common areas and refreshment points, with the issue of an appropriate Company safety protocol;
  • the sanitization of premises and provision of personal protective equipment (gloves and masks) to be delivered daily to employees;
  • temperature reading at entrances to our premises;
  • the reorganization of spaces and procedures for access to premises based on phases and groups, in order to ensure minimum compulsory distancing between people.

With regard to the Italian companies of the Group whose employees are covered by the national collective bargaining agreement for the credit sector, an application was submitted for access to the Solidarity Fund for the reduction of activities caused by the COVID-19 emergency, establishing a total number of hours intended to cover the reduction.

The application for the benefit concerned the period from May 4, 2020 to August 28, 2020 for a maximum of 9 weeks and the payment of the ordinary allowance to eligible employees was advanced by the Company.

In compliance with the recommendations issued by Consob on July 16, 2020 (Warning notice no. 8/20 - COVID 19 – Warning notice on financial reporting) and ESMA guidelines, the main financial information helpful in understanding the effects of the pandemic on the Company's business is provided below.

Evaluations pursuant to IAS 36 "Impairment of assets"

With special regard to the intangible assets recognised following the acquisition of Altamira

Asset Management and for which the allocation of the purchase price is now final - pursuant to IFRS 3 - 12 months after the acquisition date, as of September 30, tests were carried out on trigger events which revealed for some of them, relating to servicing contracts and the brand name, the need to carry out a new impairment test.

On the basis of the foregoing, the Company carried out an impairment test in accordance with IAS 36 "Impairment of assets". The test was performed therefore on the carrying amounts of all intangible assets other than goodwill resulting as at September 30, 2020 from the updating of amortisation/depreciation pertaining to the period.

For the purposes of impairment testing, the forward-looking information determined in accordance with the most recent scenario assumptions collected by the subsidiaries was considered, based also on developments in the pandemic and the estimated effects it has had and will have on the NPL servicing market in general and on Altamira Asset Management in particular. As regards impairment testing of the carrying amounts of each single intangible asset, the measurement models used to determine the estimate of the recoverable value found no impairment of the net carrying amounts of the assets. The analyses were performed on the basis of approved plans that were stressed to take account of developments in operations and the impacts of the pandemic, with particular regard to collections and sales of real estate assets.

The valuation models used to determine the estimate of the recoverable value did not reveal any losses from the comparison with the net book value of the assets.

As regards the value of the goodwill, the execution of the tests on the trigger events as of September 30, 2020 did not indicate a need to update of the impairment testing conducted with reference to the date of June 30, 2020. As a result of this exercise, from the comparison between the recoverable value and the net book value of the two CGUs identified in the geographical areas pertaining to Altamira Asset Management and its subsidiaries, namely Iberia (Spain and Portugal) and Greece & Cyprus, the model found the recoverable value was more than sufficient to support goodwill, confirming the absence of impairment losses.

Uncertainties and significant risks related to COVID-19

Current conditions in the financial markets and the consequences of any economic and financial effects of the spread of the coronavirus are inevitably shadowed by uncertainty, even in the presence of stable macroeconomic conditions.

However, in light of the information available to date, considering the organisational measures implemented to guarantee business continuity, the multiple cost containment initiatives undertaken, and taking account of the type of business conducted by the Group, which is structurally flexible in different phases of the economic cycle, it is believed that there is currently no risk of having to adjust the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities reported in these financial statements.

The Group believes in any case that at present there is no doubt regarding its ability to continue to operate as a going concern.

Impact of the COVID-19 epidemic on the income statement

The direct effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the lockdown measures imposed by European governments have caused operating difficulties for the sector in which doValue operates and the visibility of short-time developments remains limited. Nevertheless, the courts, which are essential to both in-court and out-of-court management of credit positions, have progressively been reopening since mid-May, and the level of court activity, although still below normal, is gradually increasing. This therefore represents a positive sign, albeit amid ongoing uncertainty. Accordingly, collections are in line with the scenarios expected by the Group, showing an improvement in the third quarter compared with the previous period, and are substantially in line with current consensus expectations. In the first nine months of 2020 the Group achieved the following results (compared with the first nine months of 2019):

  • Collections equal to around €2,800 million (about €2,180 million as at September 30, 2019);
  • Gross revenues equal to €281 million (€233 million as at September 30, 2019). Pro-forma

gross revenues equal to €335 million (€470 million as at September 30, 2019);

• EBITDA excluding non-recurring elements equal to €76 million (€91 million as at September 30, 2019). Pro-forma EBITDA excluding non-recurring elements equal to €105 million (€198 million as at September 30, 2019).

As regards assets under management (GBV), despite the current environment, in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 doValue entered new servicing contracts with investors with a GBV equal to €5.5 billion, in addition to flows from long-term management contracts of over €3.1 billion. This underscores the stability of the current pipeline of the servicing market in southern Europe. With regard to costs, the Group's business model has proven to be flexible and capable of offering an additional level of protection in the current scenario. doValue has adopted cost efficiency measures in each of the markets in which it operates, including a substantial reduction in variable personnel costs and overheads. Developments in EBITDA and actions to address costs have enabled the Group to preserve and increase cash flow, with total available liquidity amounting to nearly €250 million, of which about €170 million in current account balances and €80 million in credit lines (unused at the end of September 2020). doValue therefore closes the period with a leverage ratio (ratio between net financial debt and EBITDA) of 2.4x at the end of September 2020. No restrictions connected with financial covenants are expected in the medium term.

Information on the impact of COVID-19 on strategic planning and plan targets, economic performance, financial position and cash flow

As of the date of this Consolidated Interim Report as at September 30, 2020, in consideration of the persistence of market turbulence linked to the COVID-19 pandemic, which makes it impossible to forecast possible developments in its economic impact with any accuracy, it would be premature to conduct a review of the overall business plan.

However, in order to assess the sustainability of the carrying amounts of assets under management, while taking account of the difficulty inherent in making even short- or mediumterm forecasts in this climate of uncertainty, the Company has prepared a scenario of the future impact of COVID-19 on the plan targets. The Company considered the decline in revenue flows from portfolios under management during 2020, assuming a gradual and progressive recovery in operations in the short term, together with cost containment measures envisaged in the budget.

This scenario is consistent with the doValue business model, which is able to adapt to phases of contraction or expansion over the economic cycle, reacting with the expansion of assets under management or collections.

Other information

MANAGEMENT AND COORDINATION

As at September 30, 2020, 25.05% of the shares of the Parent Company doValue are owned by its largest shareholder, Avio S.à r.l., a company incorporated in Luxembourg, affiliated with the Fortress Group which in turn was acquired by Softbank Group Corporation in December 2017. A further 1.74% of doValue shares are held by other investors similarly connected with Softbank Group Corporation, which there by holds an overall stake of 26.79%.

The majority 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 self-determination 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.

The item "Other reserves" includes the associated equity reserve in the same amount.

The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of May 26, 2020 approved the purchase of treasury shares on the market up to a maximum of 8,000,000 ordinary shares of doValue S.p.A., equal to 10% of the total, for a period of 18 months from the date of approval of the Shareholders' Meeting.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
