The company has prepared the interim management report at 31 March 2016, providing the information required by the existing paragraph 5 of article 154-ter of Leg. Decree no. 58 dated 24 February 1998, amended by Legislative Decree no. 25 dated 15 February 2016, as required by Communication no. 7587 of 21/04/2016 from Borsa Italiana to STAR segment issuers.
Although revenues were lower than for the same period of last year, the results for the first quarter of 2016 show recovery of the Gross Operating Profit, which increased from Euro 43 thousand in the first quarter of 2015 to Euro 363 thousand at 31 March 2016.
Consolidated revenues for the first quarter of 2016 totalled Euro 41,420 thousand, a decrease of Euro 4,138 thousand compared with the same period of the previous year, but in line with this year's budget.
This fall in revenues relates primarily to sales on the OEM channel, as a consequence of conversion to the new LPG Euro 6 engines, which is due to be completed during the second half of the year, while revenues in the After Market segment were basically aligned with those for the same period of the previous year.
As already said, despite lower revenues, the economic results of the quarter improved in terms of both a higher profit on sales and lower operating costs, primarily labour costs, where savings of Euro 1.5 million compared with the first quarter of 2015 were registered; there was also a lower incidence of industrial costs as a result of implementation of the reorganisation and production reorganisation plan already started the previous year.
In view of this scenario, the gross operating margin at the end of the quarter totalled Euro 363 thousand, an improvement compared with the same period of the previous year (Euro 43 thousand).
The following table sets out the main economic indicators of the Group for the first quarter of 2016 compared with the first quarter of 2015.

This division of revenues by area of activity follows the "management approach", on which the international accounting standard of reference (IFRS 8) is based. According to this accounting standard, the segments must be shown in relation to the organisational structure and internal reporting used by management to measure performance and manage it.
The current layout shows the two LPG and CNG lines in the "car systems" division and now includes revenues from sale of compressors for fuel stations obtained by Safe S.p.A., in the "Distribution Systems" division.

Net Revenues of the Group in the first quarter of 2016 amounted to Euro 41,420 thousand (Euro 45,558 thousand at 31 March 2015), a decrease of 9.1% compared with the same period in 2015.
Revenues for the Gas Segment decreased from Euro 42,592 thousand in the first quarter of 2015 to Euro 37,640 thousand, a 11.6% decrease.
Revenues from sales in the Gas Segment – Car Systems decreased from Euro 38,021 thousand in the first quarter of 2015 to Euro 33,946 thousand, a 10.7% decrease, mainly in the OEM channel, as a result of slowdown in supplies on certain models due to conversion from Euro 5 to Euro 6 engines.
Sales in the Gas Segment – Distribution Systems decreased by Euro -877 thousand, due to lower revenues in South-east Asia, which were only partially offset by positive performance of several Western European countries.
Revenues from sales in the Others division increased from Euro 2,966 thousand in the first quarter of 2015 to Euro 3,780 thousand, a 27.4% increase assisted by good performance of sales of speakers under the 18Sound brand.
In view of the limited importance of sales in other divisions, it may be concluded that the Group's sole segment of activity is manufacture of car systems and distribution systems (Gas Segment).
Distribution of sales by geographical area in the first quarter of 2016 is shown below.

Analysing the geographical distribution of revenues, during the first quarter of 2016, the Landi Group realized 77.3% of its consolidated revenues abroad (45.5% in Europe and 31.8% outside Europe). In detail:
Sales on the Italian market, which totalled Euro 9,388 thousand in the first quarter, remained basically stable compared with the same period of the previous year, despite an unfavourable market scenario, characterised both by a fall in After Market conversions and by a decrease in new OEM bifuel registrations.
In particular, according to data processed by the Ecogas Consortium, the After Market market registered a 7.7% drop in the number of conversions compared with the previous year, while the Group's share of the domestic market on this sales channel was stable, at around 34%, in the period of reference.
With reference to performance of OEM bifuel registrations, the sales mix of new vehicles equipped with LPG and CNG systems registered a total 20.6% decrease in the quarter compared with the same period of 2015, according to data published by ANFIA – Associazione Nazionale Filiera Industria Automobilistica, with 8.2% of total registrations.
Revenues in Europe fell by 13.9%, principally as a result of the aforementioned slowdown in supplies due to conversion from Euro 5 to Euro 6 engines on the OEM channel.
Sales on the American market fell by 23.6% compared with the same quarter of 2015, mainly as a result of negative sales performance in certain South American countries, such as Bolivia and Argentina, which was only partially offset by growth in Brazil.
Compared with the same quarter of 2015, the Asia and Rest of the World markets registered growth of 14.5%, due primarily to good development of revenues on the Indian and Algerian markets. Slow but constant signs of reopening of the Iranian market continue and are being boosted by the gradual lessening of international tension.
In the first quarter of 2016, the total Gross Operating Profit (GOP) was positive for Euro 363 thousand, an increase of Euro 320 thousand compared with the same period in 2015 (Euro 43 thousand).
Costs of raw materials, consumables and goods and changes in inventories decreased overall from Euro 19,852 thousand in the first quarter of 2015 to Euro 19,105 thousand in the first quarter of 2016, recording a decrease of Euro 747 thousand in absolute terms, as a result of the decrease in sales volumes.
Costs for services and use of third party assets decreased from Euro 14,327 thousand at 31 March 2015 to Euro 12,087 thousand at 31 March 2016, not only as a result of the reduced weight of external processing, linked with the lower sales volumes, but also due to the reduction in direct industrial costs and production overheads, following an increase in their efficiency as part of the reorganisation plan.
Personnel costs of Euro 9,466 thousand fell slightly with respect to the same period of the previous year in this quarter (Euro 10,929 thousand), as did the total workforce employed by the Group, which is 810 employees. The reduction in labour costs is attributable both to a company solidarity agreement started in the third quarter of the previous year and to the effects of a mobility and voluntary redundancy scheme started in November 2015 and still in progress at the end of the quarter.
The Operating Profit was negative for Euro 3,755 thousand, a decrease of Euro 80 thousand compared with the same item for the previous year, after entry into accounts of quarterly depreciation totalling Euro 4,118 thousand (Euro 3,878 thousand at 31 March 2015).
The result before tax is negative at Euro 5,214 thousand, compared with a pre-tax result equal to Euro -3,491 thousand in the first quarter of 2015. This change is partly the result of exchange differences, which registered gains of Euro 1,024 thousand in the first quarter of 2015, whereas losses of Euro 159 thousand were registered at 31 March 2016.
Net financial charges of Euro 1,262 thousand, of which Euro 1,051 thousand are interest charges, Euro 250 thousand is commission payable and Euro 39 thousand is interest income, increased by Euro 578 thousand compared with the first quarter of 2015. This increase is attributable to financial charges relating to the "LANDI RENZO 6.10% 2015-2020" bonded loan issued in May 2015.
The Net Result of the Group in the first quarter of 2016 showed losses of Euro 4,190 thousand, compared with losses for the Group of Euro 2,754 thousand in the same period of 2015.

The Net Financial Position at 31 March 2016 is negative for Euro 78,434 thousand, compared with a negative net financial position at 31 December 2015 of Euro -59,459 thousand (Euro -56,219 thousand at 31 March 2015).
The medium-term amounts of loans and of the "LANDI RENZO 6.10% 2015-2020" bonded loan with financial covenants were stated under current liabilities at 31 December 2015, in accordance with the accounting standards of reference, due to misalignments with the parameters set. Following issue of letters of waiver by the Company and also the resolution of the Bondholders' Meeting held on 7 March 2016, which voted to change the loan regulations, deferring measurement of the parameters to 31 December 2016, these amounts have been reclassified according to their contractual maturity dates.
The cash flow from operating activities at 31 March 2016, as indicated in the Cash Flow Statement, was negative for Euro 16,637 thousand; investment activities lead to absorption of cash totalling Euro 2,095 thousand, while the cash flow produced by financing activities was positive and totalled Euro 975 thousand.
Net operating capital in the first quarter of 2016 was Euro 52,706 thousand. There was an increase of Euro 14,389 million compared with 31 December 2015, due mainly to greater absorption of net operating capital, partly as a result of less use of assignment without recourse of receivables and outlays linked with the voluntary redundancy policies.
Closing inventories and work in progress on orders, totalling Euro 63,412 thousand, increased by 4.9% compared with the end of the previous year, particularly for the finished products category, in view of sales for the subsequent quarters.
Trade receivables at 31 March 2016, totalling Euro 35,650 thousand, increased slightly compared with the figure for 31 December 2015, due to less use of factoring without recourse, with credit maturity totalling Euro 31,169 thousand (Euro 35,542 thousand at 31 December 2015).
Investments in Group tangible assets at 31 March 2016 totalled Euro 777 thousand (Euro 2,080 thousand in the first quarter of 2015) and relate principally to industrial and commercial equipment.
Investments in intangible assets totalled Euro 1,257 thousand (Euro 1,163 thousand in March 2015) and refer mainly to the capitalization of costs for development projects meeting the requirements of IAS 38 in order to be stated under net assets.
In the first quarter of 2016, Landi Renzo S.p.A. generated revenues of Euro 16,267 thousand, compared with Euro 21,485 thousand in 2015, a drop caused principally by the reduction in the OEM channel. The Gross Operating Profit was negative and totalled Euro 978 thousand, a decrease of Euro 260 thousand compared with the figure at 31 March 2015. The result before taxes totalled Euro -4,141 thousand, after amortisation/depreciation of Euro -2,189 thousand, net financial charges of Euro -1,049 thousand, exchange losses of Euro -394 thousand, income on equity investments totalling Euro 669 thousand and charges on equity investments totalling Euro -201 thousand.
The net result at 31 March 2016 was negative and totalled Euro 3,219 thousand, while Equity was Euro 69,855 thousand, compared with Euro 73,164 thousand at 31 March, 2015.
The workforce at the end of the quarter was 294 employees, a decrease of 21 people compared with 31 December 2015.
Transactions with related parties, which were not significant as a whole, relate to activities regarding normal operation and are regulated at normal arm's length conditions on the respective reference markets, taking account of the characteristics of the goods and services supplied.
Transactions with related parties listed below include:
Taking into consideration the current situation, in line with that stated on March 14, it is confirmed that 2016 sales will be between Euro 200 and 210 million and that EBITDA in 2016 is forecast at between Euro 12 and 15 million. As a matter of fact the business with Car Manufacturers is expected to grow during next months for the release of new LPG models with Euro 6 engines; the Distribution System business is historically stronger during the second part of the year.
The Group shall continue to pay the utmost attention to operational costs and management control, implementing further measures aimed at improving efficiency.

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Stefano Landi
The Interim Management Report at 31 March 2016, which has not been audited, has been prepared in compliance with the requirements of the existing paragraph 5 of art. 154-ter of Legislative Decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998, also in light of the clarifications provided by the ESMA in the Q&A on Directive 2004/109/EC. Therefore, the provisions of the international accounting principle relating to infra-annual financial information (IAS 34 – Intermediate Financial Statements) were not adopted.
The interim management report at 31 March 2016 has been prepared in accordance with international accounting standards (IAS/IFRS). To this end, the separate interim financial statements of the Italian and foreign subsidiaries have been reclassified and adjusted accordingly.
They are consolidated on a line-by-line basis to include all assets and liabilities in their entirety. The company Krishna Landi Renzo India Private LTD Held is consolidated with the equity method, due to its current system of governance, which reflects a joint control agreement classifiable as a "joint venture" according to international accounting standards.
The accounting policies adopted to prepare the interim consolidated financial statements for the first quarter closed on 31 March 2016 are the same as those used for the consolidated financial statements closed at 31 December 2015.
As well as the interim values at 31 March 2016 and 2015, the financial data for the period closed on 31 December 2015 is shown for the purpose of comparison.
The functional and presentation currency is the Euro. Figures in the schedules and tables herein are in thousands of Euro.
The preparation of the interim management report requires the directors to apply accounting standards and methods that are sometimes based on difficult and subjective assessments and estimates based, in turn, on past experience and assumptions that are considered reasonable and realistic given the circumstances. Application of these estimates and assumptions affects the amounts presented in the financial statements, such as the Statement of Financial Position, Income Statement, Statement of Comprehensive Income, Cash Flow Statement and disclosures.
If in the future these estimates and assumptions, which are based on the best assessments made by the directors, should actually be different then they will be changed accordingly.
Some valuation processes, especially the more complex ones, such as establishing any impairment of noncurrent assets, are normally carried out to a full extent only during preparation of the annual financial statements, when all the information that may be required is available, except for those cases in which there are impairment indicators that require an immediate assessment of possible losses in value.
The policies and principles of the Landi Renzo Group for the identification, management and control of risks related to the activity are described in detail in the Consolidated Annual Report at 31 December 2015, to which you may refer for a more complete description of such aspects.
The consolidation area includes the parent company Landi Renzo S.p.A. and the companies in which it holds a direct or indirect controlling stake according to IFRS/IAS.
The consolidation area has not changed compared with 31 December 2015 and 31 March 2015.
Pursuant to art. 3 of Consob Resolution no. 18079 of 20 January, 2012, Landi Renzo S.p.A. has decided to adopt the opt-out system envisaged by arts. 70, paragraph 8, and 71, paragraph 1-b, of Consob regulation no. 11971/99 (and subsequent amendments and additions thereto), applying the possibility of derogating from the obligations of publication of the information documents envisaged by Annex 3B to said Consob Regulation, on occasion of significant mergers, demergers, increases in capital through contribution of goods in kind, acquisitions and disposals.
