FY 2022 Guidance confirmed

Rome, 5 May 2022 – Leonardo's Board of Directors, convened today under the Chairmanship of Luciano Carta, examined and unanimously approved results of the first quarter 2022.

Alessandro Profumo, Leonardo CEO, stated "1Q 2022 showed a good start to the year and results in line with Leonardo's growth path, which we had already restarted in the previous year. The defence and governmental business achieved good order intake in the first quarter, with growing revenues and profitability and improving cash flow. We are well positioned in European co-operation programmes and in markets that are committed to growing defence spending. All this means we confirm the outlook and full year 2022 Guidance. We can also be very confident of our key business strengths and fundamentals supporting our medium term outlook. We also continue to make good progress optimising our portfolio and making us more focused on our core businesses, thanks to the sale of GES and of our 50% stake of AAC JV. At the same time, we continue to execute our disciplined financial strategy and are pleased to see yesterday that S&P revised Leonardo's outlook to positive on improving credit metrics".

1Q 2022 financial results

The results of these first three months of 2022 reflect the path to growth and increased profitability which was expected. The volume of new orders has continued to increase significantly, as well as Revenues and EBITA in all the main Business areas.

The cash flows, although affected by the usual seasonal profile characterised by significant outflows in the first part of the year, are clearly improving compared to the same period of the prior year, already improving compared to the first quarter of 2020.

The Group Net Debt figure, even though reflecting the acquisition of the 25.1% investment in the German company Hensoldt (€mil. 606, plus related transaction costs), which completed at the beginning of January 2022, has risen only € 148 million compared to the first quarter of 2021 thanks to the significant improvement in the FOCF.

(*) EBITDA this is EBITA before amortisation, depreciation (net of those relating to goodwill or classified among "non-recurring costs") and adjustments impairment.

(**) EBITA is obtained by eliminating from EBIT the following items: any impairment in goodwill; amortisation and impairment, if any, of the portion of the purchase price allocated to intangible assets as part of business combinations, restructuring costs that are a part of defined and significant plans; other exceptional costs or income, i.e. connected to particularly significant events that are not related to the ordinary performance of the business.

(***) EBIT is obtained by adding to earnings before financial income and expense and taxes and taxes the Group's share of profit in the results of its strategic Joint Ventures (GIE-ATR, MBDA, Thales Alenia Space and Telespazio).

Commercial Performance

  • New Orders, amounted to EUR 3,789 million significantly increased (+10.8%) compared to the first quarter of 2021
  • Backlog, amounted to EUR 36,278 million, ensures a coverage in terms of production slightly higher than 2.5 years. The book to bill ratio (the ratio of New Orders for the period to Revenues) is higher than 1.2.

Business Performance

  • Revenues, amounted to EUR 3,006 million, showed a solid increase (about +8%) compared to the first quarter of 2021 (€bil. 2.8) driven by the strong performance of Helicopters and by the higher production volumes of the Aircraft Division
  • EBITA, amounted to EUR 132 million, and recorded, on the whole, strong growth (39%) with a considerable increase in all business segments, with particular reference to the activities of

Electronics in Europe, in addition to the higher contribution provided by all the strategic Joint Ventures. Profitability also improved significantly, with a ROS of 4.4%, up by about 1 percentage point

  • EBIT, amounted to EUR 123 million, benefitted from an improvement of EBITA, compared to the first quarter of 2021 (€mil. 75). At EBIT level, non-recurring costs showed a significant decrease visà-vis the decision to stop classifying – starting from 2022 – the charges linked to the COVID-19 emergency within recurring costs included in EBITA. Overall, EBIT showed an increase of 64%.
  • Net Result before extraordinary transactions, which posted a profit of EUR 74 million, (negative for €mil. 2 in the first quarter of 2021), is equal to the Net Result and benefitted from the EBIT performance, as well as from lower financial and tax charges.

Financial performance

  • Free Operating Cash Flow (FOCF), negative for EUR 1,080 million, showed a significant improvement (24%) compared to the first quarter of 2021 (negative for €mil. 1,422). This result, although confirming the usual seasonal trend that is characterised by significant cash absorptions in the first part of the year, reflects the expected positive trend towards improvement
  • Group Net Debt, of EUR 4,788 million, was higher compared to 31 December 2021 (€mil. 3,122), mainly as a result of the abovementioned FOCF performance as well as of the acquisition, completed in January 2022, of the investment in Hensoldt AG and the share of related transaction costs paid. The acquisition of the aforesaid investment is also reflected in the increase in non-current assets

2022 Guidance

In view of the results achieved in the first quarter of 2022 and the expectations for the coming periods, we confirm the guidance for the entire year as drawn up when preparing the annual financial statements as at 31 December 2021.

Significant recent developments

At the end of February 2022, Russia launched an offensive - which is still ongoing - against Ukraine, generating profound changes in the world's geopolitical and economic balance.

The process of integration and realisation of European Defence and Security co-operation and, at the same time, the increase in defence spending by EU and neighbouring countries, are accelerating with consequent opportunities for companies operating in the sector. On the other hand, relations with Russia are significantly influenced by the numerous logistical and economic sanctions imposed by the European Union, other countries and other international bodies.

As reported in the 2021 Integrated Report, to which reference is made, Leonardo has no significant exposure to these two countries and is carefully monitoring the situation to identify any consequences on its current and prospective situation.

Helicopters

The Sector shows an overall positive business performance and increasing financial performance, in line with the plan expectations. In particular, Revenues and EBITA grew by more than 16%, with profitability in line despite a mix of activities with higher pass-through volumes. During the period, 19 new helicopters were delivered, compared to 13 in the first quarter of 2021.

New Orders: The main acquisitions for the period included:

  • The contract for the supply of 6 AW189 helicopters for the Rescue and Salvage Bureau of the Chinese Ministry of Transport;
  • The order for the supply of 4 AW609 tiltrotors for a commercial flight operator;
  • The contract for the Mid Life Upgrade (MLU) of 1 AW101 helicopter of the Japan Maritime Self Defense Force

Revenues: They increased due to the stepping up of activities specifically on the NH90 programme for Qatar.

EBITA: It showed an increase as a result of higher revenues, with profitability in line with that of the first quarter of 2021.

Defence Electronics & Security

The first quarter of 2022 was characterised by a continued strong business performance in line with that of the comparative period, with volumes also basically in line. Profitability was on the rise in all the areas of operation in Europe and at Leonardo DRS, which continued to confirm the growth trend envisaged in the plan.

New Orders: They were essentially in line with the first quarter of 2021. The main acquisitions in the quarter concerned the Electronics Division and included the order for the supply of naval guns and related logistic support, for the equipping of four F126-class frigates for the German Navy, and the order for the provision of a combat system and related logistics for a special operations support unit, to support underwater operations and to rescue damaged submarines (Special and Diving Operations - Submarine Rescue Ship, SDO-SuRS).

As for Leonardo DRS, additional orders were booked for the production of next-generation U.S. Army mission command computing systems called Mounted Family of Computer Systems (MFoCS), M-SHORAD (Manoeuvre-Short Range Air Defense) order for the initial supply of a Mission Equipment

Package, which will be integrated into heavy Stryker-type vehicles and which will enable the neutralisation of low-altitude aerial threats, including remotely-controlled drones.

Revenues: were basically in line with the comparative period. As regards Leonardo DRS, it should be noted that last year volumes benefitted from the postponement of certain activities from 2020. This decline was partly mitigated by the positive effect of the USD/€ exchange rate.

EBITA: increased in all the main European business areas and in particular in the Defense Systems. For Leonardo DRS, despite lower volumes, the growth in profitability that began last year is continuing, mainly due to the gradual shift from the development phase to the production phase of some programmes.

Aeronautics

The Sector showed an excellent performance in the Defence business area, while also recording the first signs of recovery in the regional transport sector, with the GIE-ATR consortium that recognised an increase in deliveries and orders. The Aerostructures Division continued working at lower capacity due to the slow recovery of the civil aviation business of major customers (Boeing and ATR).

Aircraft

From a production point of view for the military programmes of the Division, 11 wings and 2 final assemblies were delivered to Lockheed Martin under the F-35 programme (12 wings and 2 final assemblies delivered in the first quarter of 2021). This was in addition to 2 further deliveries of Typhoon aircraft to Kuwait (following the first 2 deliveries in December 2021).

New Orders: the Division recorded orders higher than those of the first quarter of 2021 thanks to the acquisition of the export order for the remotely piloted aircraft system Euromale and for 1 C-27J aircraft to the Slovenian MoD, in addition to further orders on the JSF (Joint Strike Fighter) and logistics support programmes for Typhoon aircraft

Revenues: higher production volumes in the Division, on the business lines of the defence for the Kuwait programme and of the Airlifters for the new C-27J order within Europe

EBITA: benefitted from higher volumes, confirming the high level of profitability

Aerostructures

From a production point of view, 3 fuselage sections and 3 stabilisers were delivered under the B787 programme (10 fuselages and 6 stabilisers were delivered in the first quarter of 2021) and 2 fuselages were delivered under the ATR programme (3 in the first three months of the last year).

New Orders: The Division benefitted from higher orders from Airbus for the A220 and A321 programmes and from the agreement for Tooling Refurbishment on the B767 programme. At the same time, no new orders were placed by customers Boeing (B787 programme) and the GIE-ATR consortium.

Revenues: increase in the Division, which benefitted from higher production rates on the Airbus programmes.

EBITA: with the continuing challenges related to production sites working at lower capacity, this impacted EBITA, as already highlighted in the first quarter of 2021, although profitability showed signs of recovery thanks to a slight increase in production volumes.

GIE-ATR

EBITA: the consortium recorded improved results compared to those of the first quarter of 2021 thanks to the deliveries made in the quarter (no. 2 deliveries compared to no deliveries in the first quarter of 2021).

Space

The first quarter of 2022 showed improved results that benefitted from higher production volumes and improved profitability in the manufacturing segment. The segment of satellite services confirmed a solid profitability already recorded in the first quarter of 2021.

Industrial transactions

  • Acquisition of equity investment of 25.1% of Hensoldt AG. 3 January 2022 saw the completion of the acquisition from Square Lux Holding II S.à r.l., a company controlled by funds advised by Kohlberg Kravis & Roberts & Co. L.P., of a 25.1% stake in Hensoldt AG, a company that is the leading German player in the field of sensor solutions for defence and security applications, with an ever-expanding portfolio in sensors, data management and robotics, at a price of €mil. 606. The transaction is an important step towards achieving the strategic objective of acquiring a leading position in the European Defence Electronics market, as defined in the "Be Tomorrow – Leonardo 2030" Plan, and reflects Leonardo's determination to play a leading role in the ongoing consolidation process, also with a view to future cooperation programmes at continental Europe level;
  • National Strategic Hub for the Cloud. On 21 March 2022, the partnership composed of TIM, Leonardo, Cassa Depositi e Prestiti (CDP, through the subsidiary CDP Equity) and Sogei, in compliance with the tender procedure, submitted the final bid for the National Strategic Hub (NSH) for the assignment, through a public-private partnership contract, of the design, implementation and management of an infrastructure for the provision of cloud services for the Public Administration. The offer envisages that, in the event of the tender being awarded, a joint venture will be set up between the members of the partnership in the form of an Italian law stock company for the provision of cloud solutions and services in support of the PA with a view to ensuring the highest possible level of data efficiency, security and reliability;
  • Sale of Global Enterprise Solutions (GES). On 22 March 2022 the US subsidiary Leonardo DRS signed a definitive agreement to sell its Global Enterprise Solutions (GES) business to SES S.A. for USDmil. 450, gross of taxes, subject to customary working capital adjustments at closing. GES is the largest provider of commercial satellite communications for the US government and offers mission-critical communications and world-class security solutions. The closing of the transaction is expected for the second half of 2022.

Moreover, we note that on 8 February 2022 Leonardo stopped the process of selecting a partner for the automation business, as none of the parties that had expressed interest could guarantee the requirements of a long-term vision and an adequate investment plan that Leonardo had always considered to be essential elements. Leonardo is completing the analysis process to identify targeted actions on processes, organisation and governance in order to better face the reference market.

Following the end of the reporting period, on 26 April 2022, Leonardo DRS signed a binding agreement for the sale of its interest in the joint venture Advanced Acoustic Concepts to TDSI, a subsidiary of Thales. The closing of the transaction, subject to customary regulatory approvals and specific conditions, is expected for the second half of 2022.

Financial transactions

No new transaction was carried out on the financial markets during the first quarter of 2022. However, in January 2022 the remaining amount of €mil. 556 of the bond issued in December 2009 was repaid, having reached its natural expiry. Furthermore, as detailed in the Industrial Transactions, in January 2022 Leonardo acquired 25.1% of Hensoldt AG.

As at 31 March 2022 Leonardo had credit facilities available for a total of about €mil. 3,210 to meet the financing needs of the Group's recurring operations, broken down as follows: an ESG-linked Revolving Credit Facility totalling €mil. 2,400, divided into two tranches, and additional unconfirmed short-term

lines of credit of about €mil. 810, which were used at the date for about €mil 65. Moreover, the subsidiary Leonardo US Holding had revocable short-term lines of credit in dollars, guaranteed by Leonardo Spa, for a total value of €mil. 225, entirely unused at 31 March 2022. Finally, Leonardo has unconfirmed lines of credit for guarantees for a total of €mil. 10,285, of which €mil. 3,575 available at 31 March 2022.

Outstanding bond issues are given a medium/long-term financial credit rating by the international rating agencies: Moody's Investors Service (Moody's), Standard & Poor's and Fitch. On the reporting date, Leonardo's credit ratings, compared to those preceding the last change, were as follows:

Agency Last update Previous Updated
Credit Rating Outlook Credit Rating Outlook
Moody's October 2018 Ba1 positive Ba1 stable
Standard&Poor's May 2022 BB+ stable BB+ positive
Fitch January 2022 BBB- negative BBB- stable

*******************

At today's meeting, the Board also resolved to renew the bond issue program EMTN (Euro Medium Term Notes) for additional 12 months, leaving at 4 billion Euro the maximum amount (already overall used for a nominal amount of approximately EUR 1,6 billion). The renewal is performed by Leonardo Group on a yearly basis, as part of its ordinary activities of financial management. As usual, credit rating will be assigned to the Program by Moody's, Standard & Poor's and Fitch.
