* EBITDA is represented by operating profit before provisions and depreciation. EBITDA thus defined is a measure used by management to monitor and evaluate the operational performance and is not identified as an accounting measure under both Italian Accounting Principles and IFRS and therefore should not be considered an alternative measure for evaluating the Group's results. Since EBITDA is not regulated by applicable accounting standards, the criteria used by the Group might not be consistent with that adopted by others and therefore may not be comparable.

Aeffe Group operates worldwide in the fashion and luxury goods sector and is active in the design, production and distribution of a wide range of products that includes prêt-a-porter, footwear and leather goods. The Group develops, produces and distributes, with a constant focus on the qualities of uniqueness and exclusivity, its own collections both under its own-label brands, including "Alberta Ferretti", "Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini", "Moschino" and "Pollini", and under licensed brands, which include "Blugirl Folies", "Cedric Charlier" and "Jeremy Scott". The Group has also licensed to key partners the production and distribution of other accessories and products with which it supplements its product range (perfumes, junior and children's lines, watches, sunglasses and other).
The Group's business is divided, based on the various product lines and brands it sells, into two segments: (i) prêt-a-porter (which includes prêt-a-porter lines, lingerie and swimwear); and (ii) footwear and leather goods.
The Prêt-a-porter Division, which is composed of the companies Aeffe, Moschino and Velmar, is mainly involved in the design, production and distribution of luxury prêt-a-porter garments and lingerie, beachwear and loungewear.
In terms of the prêt-a-porter collections, the activity is carried out by Aeffe, both for the production of the Group's proprietary brands ("Alberta Ferretti", "Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini", "Moschino", "Boutique Moschino" and "Love Moschino") and brands licensed from other companies (such as "Blugirl Folies", "Cedric Charlier" and "Jeremy Scott"). Aeffe also handles the distribution of all Division products both through the retail channel (via subsidiaries) and through the wholesale channel.
Velmar manufactures and distributes lingerie and swimwear collections, and specifically men's/women's lingerie, underwear, beachwear and loungewear. Collections are produced and distributed under the Group's proprietary brands, as "Moschino", and under third-party licensed brands as "Blugirl Folies".
The Prêt-a-porter Division also manages licensing agreements granted to other companies to manufacture Aeffe and Moschino branded product lines such as the "Moschino" brand licensing agreement relating to the Love line, "Moschino" branded perfumes and "Moschino" branded sunglasses.
Aeffe is the brainchild of designer Alberta Ferretti, who set up her own business in 1972. The history of the Parent Company has developed in parallel with that of its founder, whose personal involvement in fashion has been a key factor in Aeffe's development.
The growth of the Parent Company as an industrial and creative entity has been distinguished from the start by a multi-brand approach, with Aeffe producing and distributing the prêt-a-porter collections of leading fashion houses utilising the know-how acquired in the production of luxury prêt-a-porter lines.
This provides the context for the partnership between Aeffe and designer Franco Moschino, whose brand "Moschino Couture!" it has produced and distributed under an exclusive licence since 1983.
Between 1995 and 2013, Aeffe worked with designer Jean Paul Gaultier producing and distributing the women prêt-à-porter collections branded "Jean Paul Gaultier".
In 2001, Aeffe gained control of Pollini, an established manufacturer of footwear and leather goods. This allowed Aeffe to supplement the collections produced in-house with an accessories line.
In 2002, Aeffe took over Velmar, a firm that had collaborated with Aeffe for some time on the production and distribution of lingerie, beachwear and loungewear lines.
In 2007, Aeffe, obtained the Consob Nulla Osta to public the offering memorandum relating to the Public Offering and the listing on the MTA – Star Segment – of Aeffe S.p.A. ordinary shares, closes successfully the Offer of shares and starts to be traded on the MTA – Star Segment – by Borsa Italiana.
Moschino was founded in 1983 and grew during the 1990s to become an internationally renowned brand. Following the disappearance in 1994 of its founder, Franco Moschino, his family, staff and friends have kept the designer's legacy alive, respecting his creative identity and philosophy. Rossella Jardini, who has worked for Franco Moschino since 1981, succeeded him as artistic director and becoming in charge of brand image and styling.
The company provides design, marketing and agency services from the Milan showroom for Moschino collections in Italy and overseas.
The company also directly manages six single-brand Moschino stores, three in Milan, one in Rome, one in Capri and on-line.
In 2013 Jeremy Scott was appointed as creative director of the "Moschino" brand.
Velmar was created in 1983 in San Giovanni in Marignano and is active in the production and distribution of lingerie, underwear, beachwear and loungewear.
In 1990, a partnership began between Velmar and designer Anna Molinari to manufacture lingerie and beachwear lines. That same year, talks began with Aeffe and Genny.
Between 1990 and 1995, Velmar worked with Genny and Fendi, producing all of the swimwear lines designed by the two fashion houses. Between 1990 and 2001, Velmar worked with Itierre and Prada on the design and production of the active and sportswear lines sold under the "Extee" and "Prada" menswear labels.
Between 1995 and 1998, Velmar produced and distributed under licence the beachwear line for Byblos menswear and womenswear.
In 1998, Velmar signed a licensing agreement with Blufin for the production and distribution of "Blugirl" lines.
In 2001, Aeffe acquired 75% of Velmar. Again, this represented a natural progression of the existing partnership between the two companies.
In 2006, Velmar obtained a licence for the production and distribution of the men's beachwear and underwear lines and women's lingerie lines under the "Moschino" brand.
In 2010, Aeffe acquires the remaining 25% of Velmar's share capital.
In 2012 Velmar signed a licensing agreement with Blufin for the design, production and international distribution of "teen" women prêt-à-porter line branded Blugirl Folies.

The footwear and leather goods Division, which is composed of Pollini and its subsidiaries, mainly handles the design, production and distribution of footwear, small leather goods, bags and matching accessories made from exclusive materials.
The operating activity is mainly carried out by Pollini, which directly handles the design, production and distribution of own-label products, as well as the production and distribution of brands licensed by Group companies.
The footwear and leather goods division also manages licensing agreements granted to other companies to manufacture "Pollini" products such as umbrellas, foulards and ties.
Pollini was established in 1953 in the shoemaking district of San Mauro Pascoli, following in the Italian tradition of handmade leather goods and shoes. Italy is a leading producer of footwear: due to expertise required to make these products, nearly all production sites are located in areas with a long-standing shoemaking tradition, such as San Mauro Pascoli, Vigevano and Strà (PD). The company's philosophy is focused on promoting Pollini in other countries as an amalgam of traditional quality and Italian style, offering a range of products that include shoes, bags and matching accessories.
Between 1957 and 1961, Pollini produced the footwear collections of the designer Bruno Magli.
In the 1960s and early 1970s, Pollini began making shoes under its own label, presenting "themed" collections (such as the "Daytona" sports footwear collection, inspired by the world of motorbike racing).
In the 1970s, Pollini rose to international fame: at that point, its collections were shown in Düsseldorf, Paris and New York, as well as in Milan and Bologna. Around the same time, the first stores opened in Milan, Verona, Varese and Venice.
In 1989, Pollini moved into its new office in Gatteo, in the Italian province of Forlì-Cesena. The new site measures 50,000 sq. m., just over a third of it indoor, with a production workshop and seven-storey building housing the showroom and offices. The new site brought the footwear and leather goods divisions and sales and administration offices under one roof.
In 2001, Aeffe and Pollini reached an agreement whereby Aeffe would acquire a controlling stake in Pollini. The acquisition was a natural progression of the increasingly concentrated partnership between the two companies, enabling the growth of the footwear and leather goods lines designed by Alberta Ferretti.
Always in 2008, Pollini has entered into new license agreements with Drops S.r.l., for the manufacturing of umbrellas, as well as Larioseta S.p.A., for the manufacturing and distribution of neckwear, including women's shawls, women's and men's scarves and ties.
In 2011 Aeffe S.p.A. has acquired the remaining 28% shareholding of Pollini S.p.A., becoming the sole shareholder.

EBITDA of the Footwear and leather goods division amounts to EUR 6,701 thousand (11.0% of sales) compared to EUR 6,653 thousand 1H 2018 (11.4% of sales), with a EUR 48 thousand increase (+1.0%). The effect on the EBITDA of the IFRS 16 was equal to EUR 709 thousand.
Consolidated EBIT is positive for EUR 13,208 thousand compared to EUR 14,545 thousand in 1H 2018, showing a decrease of EUR 1,337 thousand (-9.2%). The effect on the EBIT of the IFRS 16 is equal to EUR 993 thousand.
In 1H 2019 net financial charges amount to EUR 1,668 thousand (of which EUR 1,166 thousand relating to the application of IFRS 16) compared to EUR 619 thousand in 1H 2018 and the increase is mainly driven by the application of IFRS 16.
The result before taxes amounts to EUR 11,540 thousand compared with result before taxes of EUR 13,926 thousand in the first semester 2018, with a EUR 2,386 thousand decrease.
The effect on the result before taxes of the IFRS 16 is equal to EUR -173 thousand.
The net result for the Group changes from EUR 8,276 thousand in 1H 2018 to EUR 5,114 thousand in 1H 2019, with a decrease in absolute value of EUR 3,162 thousand.

No significant events occurred during the semester.
Subsequent to the balance sheet date no significant events regarding the Group's activities have to be reported.
The risks for the world economic outlook stemming from the ongoing international trade tensions and from the slowdown of economic activity in China have not subsided. Long-term yields have declined in the advanced countries, affected by the poorer growth prospects and by the more accommodative stance of the main central banks: the Federal Reserve has indicated the possibility of future reductions in interest rates.
Economic activity in the euro area remains weak and prone to downward risks, and inflation is still at low levels. The ECB Governing Council has extended the time horizon over which it expects to keep interest rates low and has set out the details of a new series of refinancing operations (TLTRO III). It announced that, in the absence of improvements, additional stimulus will be required, and discussed the options that could be used.
According to the latest cyclical indicators, economic activity in Italy may have remained unchanged or decreased slightly in the second quarter. The main contributory factor is the weak industrial cycle, common to Germany too, caused by persisting trade tensions. The Bank of Italy's surveys show that firms' assessments of demand for their own products have improved slightly; however, they point to a slowdown over the next few months and indicate a very modest growth in planned investment for the current year.
Despite the contraction in international trade, exports grew moderately in the first four months of the year. Uncertainty over developments in the global context is nevertheless reflected in firms' unfavourable assessments of the outlook for foreign orders.
The central projection for GDP growth is 0.1 per cent this year, 0.8 per cent next year and 1.0 per cent in 2021. The scenario indicates a slowdown in investment, in line with the findings of our business surveys and with the gradual increase in borrowing costs; exports are projected to be affected by the deceleration in world trade, although Italian firms maintain their market shares. From the second half of this year, economic activity should gradually recover, thanks above all to household spending and exports. Inflation is expected to fall to 0.7 per cent in 2019, and then progressively strengthen owing to the gradual recovery driven by core inflation.
This scenario is subject to risks for growth. Continued tensions over trade policies, by curbing exports and adversely affecting firms' propensity to invest, would undermine the recovery in economic activity projected for the second half of 2019 in Italy and the euro area. On the domestic side, a heightened uncertainty about budget policy from next year on could generate new turbulence in the financial markets and influence firms' investment plans; a virtuous circle between fiscal policy and financial conditions could instead boost economic activity. Inflation risks, stemming on the one hand from increases in energy prices, and on the other from weak economic activity, are balanced overall.
Encouraged by the good performance of our monobrand stores, the results approved today are influenced by the slowdown in the wholesale channel recorded in the second quarter, penalized by an uncertain macroeconomic situation with consequent impact on margins. In this global and highly challenging market environment, the Group is committed to the design and development of increasingly desirable collections that are able to offer usage opportunities in line with the current demand, supported also by strengthened R&D, Production and Marketing divisions.

Aeffe Group operates worldwide in the luxury goods sector and is active in the design, production and distribution of a wide range of products that includes prêt-a-porter, footwear and leather goods.
The Group develops, produces and distributes, with a constant focus on the qualities of uniqueness and exclusivity, its own collections both under its own-label brands, including "Alberta Ferretti", "Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini", "Moschino" and "Pollini", and licensed brands, which include "Blugirl Folies", "Cedric Charlier" and "Jeremy Scott".
The Group also has licensed to key partners the production and distribution of other accessories and products with which it supplements its product range (perfumes, junior and children's lines, watches, sunglasses and other).
The Group's business is divided, based on the various product lines and brands it sells, into two segments: prêt-a-porter (which includes prêt-a-porter, lingerie and swimwear) and footwear and leather goods.
The Parent Company Aeffe, an Italian legal entity incorporated as a public limited company (società per azioni) based in San Giovanni in Marignano (RN), is currently listed in the – STAR Segment – of the MTA, the Italian Stock Exchange operated by Borsa Italiana.
Aeffe is controlled by Fratelli Ferretti Holding S.r.l..
These consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Parent Company Aeffe and its subsidiaries and the Group's equity interests in affiliated companies. They consist of the balance sheet, income statement, comprehensive income statement, cash flow statement, statement of changes in equity and these notes.
The financial statements are expressed in euro, since this is the currency in which most of the Group's transactions are conducted. Foreign operations are included in the consolidated financial statements according to the principles stated in the notes that follow.
The half-year condensed financial statements at June 30, 2019 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards –"IFRS"- (the designation IFRS also includes all valid International Accounting Standards -"IAS"-, as well as all interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee -"IFRIC"-, formerly the Standing Interpretations Committee -"SIC"-), issued by the International Accounting Standards Board –"IASB"– endorsed by the European Commission according to the procedures in art. 6 of (EC) Regulation n. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and Council dated July 19, 2002. In particular, these half-year condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting.
In the "Accounting policies" section are showed the international accounting principles adopted.
Unless otherwise indicated in the measurement bases described below, these consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the historic cost principle.
The measurement bases were applied uniformly by all Group companies.
The scope of consolidation at June 30, 2019 includes the financial statements of the Parent Company Aeffe and those of the Italian and foreign companies in which Aeffe holds control either directly or through its subsidiaries and associates or in which it exerts a dominant influence.
If necessary, adjustments were made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting polices into line with those adopted by the Group.
Companies are consolidated using the line-by-line method. The principles adopted for the application of this method are essentially as follows:
Subsidiaries are enterprises controlled by the Company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an enterprise so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The financial statements of subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which the Group acquires control and until the date when such control ceases.
The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method. Acquisition cost is determined by adding together the fair values of the assets transferred, the shares issued and the liabilities assumed on the acquisition date, plus the costs directly associated with the acquisition. Any surplus acquisition cost over the Group's percentage share of the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the associate is recognised as goodwill.
If the Group's percentage share of the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the associate exceeds acquisition cost, the difference is immediately recorded in the income statement.
Intercompany balances, transactions, revenue and costs are eliminated in the consolidated statements.
Furthermore, intercompany business combinations are recognised by maintaining the same book value of assets and liabilities as previously recorded in the consolidated financial statements.
An associate is an enterprise in which the Group has significant influence, but has neither sole or joint control, by taking part in decisions regarding the company's financial and operating strategy.
Trading results and the assets and liabilities of associates are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements based on the equity method, except where they are classified as held for sale.
According to this method, equity interests in associates are recorded in the balance sheet at cost, adjusted to take account of changes following the acquisition of their net assets, excluding any loss in value of individual investments. Losses of associates that exceed the Group's percentage interest in them (including long-term receivables that essentially form part of the Group's net investment in the associate) are not recognised unless the Group has an obligation to cover them. The surplus acquisition cost over the parent's percentage share of the present value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the associate on the acquisition date is recognised as goodwill. Goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is subjected to impairment tests. The historical cost deficit compared with the Group's percentage share of the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of associates on the acquisition date is credited to the income statement in the year of acquisition. With reference to operations between a Group company and an associate, unrealised gains and losses are eliminated in equal measure to the Group's percentage interest in the associate, except for cases where the unrealised losses constitute evidence of impairment of the asset transferred.

The amounts in the financial statements of each Group enterprise are measured using the operating currency or the currency of the economic area in which the enterprise operates. These consolidated financial statements are presented in euro, which is the operating and reporting currency of the Parent Company.
Foreign currency transactions are converted into the operating currency at the exchange rate in force on the transaction date. Cash assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are converted at the exchange rate in force on the balance sheet date. Any exchange rate differences arising from the elimination of these transactions or from the conversion of cash assets and liabilities are posted to the income statement. Noncash assets and liabilities in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are converted at the exchange rates in force on the date on which the fair value was determined.
The financial statements of companies outside the euro-zone are translated into euro based on the following procedures:
The exchange rates used for the conversion into euro of the financial and equity statements of companies included in the scope of consolidation are listed in the following table:

As part of the options available under IAS 1 for the preparation of its economic and financial position, The Group has elected to adopt a balance sheet format that distinguishes between current and non-current assets and liabilities, and an income statement that classifies costs by type of expenditure, since this is deemed to reflect more closely its business activities. Within the income statement, as intermediate results, they are exposed EBITDA and EBIT, considered representative indicators of company performance. The cash flow statement is presented using the "indirect" format.
With reference to Consob Resolution n. 15519 dated July 27, 2006 regarding the format of the financial statements, additional schedules have also been presented for the income statement, the statement of financial position and the statement of cash flows in order to identify any significant transactions with related parties. This has been done to avoid any compromising the overall legibility of the main financial statements.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this half-year financial report are the same used as those used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statement as of December 31, 2018, except for the following interpretations and amendments to the accounting principles that have been mandatory since January 1, 2019.
Accounting standards, amendments and interpretations approved by the European Union, applicable
IFRS 16 "Leases": the Group has opted for a retrospective application of the standard, without restatement of comparative information. The cumulative effect has been noted as a reduction of the retained opening earnings. The incremental borrowing rate used is the one at the transaction date.
The effect reflected in the financial statements at 01/01/2019 mainly concerned lease liabilities of around EUR 116.5 million and assets deriving from the right to use assets of approximately EUR 110.4 million.
Leasing contracts with a duration equal to or less than 12 months and those that have assets of modest value have been excluded.
Lease liabilities have been discounted at a weighted average interest rate of 2%. The following is a representation of the leases in the opening balance sheet as at 01/01/2019.

The change in the estimate (Vita Utile) was made prospectively, resulting in a non-significant change.

The supplementary clientele severance indemnity fund is determined based on an estimate of the liability relating to the severance of agency contracts, taking account of statutory provisions and any other relevant factor, such as statistical data, average duration of agency contracts and their rate of turnover. The item is calculated based on the actual value of the outflow necessary to extinguish the obligation.
The other provisions mainly relate to provisions for future charges and risks linked to organizational changes.
Potential tax liabilities for which no reserves have been established, since it is not considered probable that they will give rise to a liability for the Group, are described in the paragraph "Contingent liabilities".
The severance indemnities payable on a deferred basis to all employees of the Group are deemed to represent a defined benefits plan (IAS 19), since the employer's obligation does not cease on payment of the contributions due on the remuneration paid, but continue until termination of the employment relationship.
For plans of this type, the standard requires the amount accrued to be projected forward in order to determine the amount that will be paid on the termination of employment, based on an actuarial valuation that takes account of employee turnover, likely future pay increases and any other applicable factors. This methodology does not apply to those employees whose severance indemnities are paid into approved supplementary pension funds which, in the circumstances, are deemed to represent defined contributions plans.

To the shareholders of Aeffe S.p.A.
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2019, and the related financial statements, consisting of the consolidated statement of financial position, consolidated income statement, statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of cash flows and statement of changes in equity and related explanatory notes of Aeffe S.p.A. and its subsidiaries (Aeffe Group). Management is responsible for the preparation of this interim condensed financial statements in accordance with the International Financial Accounting Standards applicable to interim financial reporting (IAS 34) as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim condensed financial reporting based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with review standard recommended by Consob (the Italian Stock Exchange Regulatory Agency) in its Resolution no. 10867 of July 31, 1997. A review of interim financial information consist of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and 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 interim condensed financial statements.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim condensed financial statements of Aeffe Group as of June 30, 2019, are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the International Financial Accounting Standards applicable to interim financial reporting (IAS 34) as adopted by the European Union.
