Press release

Board of Directors of Piquadro S.p.A: Draft Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, 2016 Approved

  • Consolidated revenue of € 69.31 million (+3.1% compared to March 31, 2015);
  • EBITDA of € 8.36 million or 12.1% of consolidated revenue;
  • EBIT of € 5.72 million or 8.2% of consolidated revenue;
  • Consolidated Net Profit of € 3.88 million (-4.9% compared to March 31, 2015);
  • Dividend of € 0.04 per share proposed for a total of € 2.0 million.

Silla di Gaggio Montano, June 13, 2016 – Today the Board of Directors of Piquadro S.p.A., which designs, manufactures and distributes professional and travel leather goods featuring innovative designs and cutting edge technology, approved the Draft Separate Financial Statements and the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2016.

The Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2016 showed consolidated revenue of € 69.31 million, up 3.1% on the previous year (€ 67.21 million). The increase in revenue is attributable to the sales' growth in Italy and abroad, in the Wholesale channel as well as in the DOS channel including e-commerce.

Consolidated revenues from the DOS channel grew by 6.0% compared to the previous year. Sales in the DOS channel, calculated as the worldwide average growth rate of revenues from DOS existing at 1 April 2015, was a positive 6.7% at current exchange rates (for the same number of business days and constant exchange rates, SSSG – Same Store Sales Growth was +6.0%). The DOS channel includes e-commerce revenues, which have recorded a 37.5% increase.

The revenues of the Wholesale channel, which represent 63.0% of the Group's total turnover as of 31 March 2016, showed a 1.5% increase. Such a growth was driven by the sales in the domestic and extra-European market, while sales in the European Wholesale channel have suffered from the decrease in orders from Russia, a very important foreign market for Piquadro which turned to the direct distribution only since February.

Under a geographic point of view, the Group's revenues as of March 31 2016 show a 5.2% increase in the domestic market, which represents 77.2% of the Group's revenues. In the European market the Group recorded sales for € 11.1 million equal to 16.0% of the Group's revenues with a 5.3% decrease compared to the same period of the year 2014/2015. In the extra-European markets, where the Group sells over 33 countries, revenues increased by 1.8% mainly due to revenues from new markets such as the United States and Mexico.

EBITDA of the Piquadro Group as of 31 March 2016 was € 8.36 million with a ratio of 12.1% to net sales (13.1% in the previous). At March 31, 2016, the Group spent about € 4.1 million in Marketing and Communication activities (€ 3.7 million at March 31, 2015) to develop and promote the Piquadro brand.

EBIT of the Piquadro Group was € 5.721 million with a ratio of 8.2% to net sales, down 4.1% compared to the previous year (€ 5.96 million at March, 31 2015 equal to 8.9% of net sales). Such a decrease is attributable to the rising Marketing costs (from € 3.7 million to € 4.1 million) and the increasing production costs mainly generated by the appreciation of the U.S. currency against euro which has been partially balanced by the Parent Company's forward covers, with effects on the financial management and on the Net Profit before income taxes as well.

The Group's Net Profit was equal to € 3.88 million, down 4.9% compared to € 4.08 million recorded in the previous year.

Net Financial Position as of March 31, 2016 stands at € 6.7 million with an improvement of about € 263 thousands thanks to a € 6.8 million free cash flow. The dividends distribution on the Consolidated Net Profit of year 2014/15 was € 2 million (approximately 66,7% payout on the Consolidated Net Profit) and investments in tangible and intangible assets were approximately € 2.4 million.

«The results were affected by a strong negative impact of exchange rates and by further growth of Marketing and IT costs for the company's digitization» said Marco Palmieri, President and CEO of Piquadro. «Overheads have been streamlined and have dropped but the start of business in the United States has resulted in investments and costs . The fall in exports, although marginal, was mainly determined by the further decline of Russia and the Chinese market. Finally - Palmieri concludes - we decided to significantly reduce discounts both on and off line».

Results of the Parent Company, Piquadro S.p.A.

During the year ended March 31, 2016, the Parent Company reported revenue of approximately € 66.73 million, up 4.6% compared to the revenue reported in the year ended March 31, 2015. The revenue trend was largely attributable to the positive performances achieved on the Italian market (approximately +5.2%). In the European market the Group recorded a 5.2% decrease due to orders reduction in Russia where the Group switched to direct distribution in February 2016. Sales in the extra-European area reported a 29.1% increase.

The Parent Company's EBITDA for the year was approximately € 7.42 million compared to € 6.59 million in the previous year and represented 11.1% of the Company's revenue at March 31, 2016 (10.3% for the year ended March 31, 2015). The Parent Company's EBIT amounted to € 5.6 million, approximately 8.3% of revenues, up approximately 15.5% compared to financial year 2014/2015 (7.5% of revenues).

Net Profit of Piquadro S.p.A. for the year ended March 31, 2016 increased approximately 26.3%, from € 3.0 million to € 3.8 million.

At March 31, 2016, Net Financial Debt of Piquadro S.p.A. was € 8.3 million with an improvement of € 293 thousand thanks to a free cash flow of approximately € 5.9 million. The dividends' distribution on the Consolidated Net Profit of year 2014/15 was € 2 million (approximately 66%

payout on the Consolidated Net Profit) and investments in tangible and intangible assets were approximately € 2.4 million.

Outlook 2015/16

The development dynamics of the Piquadro Group in the 2016-17 financial year will be affected by our renewed capacity to continue the path of international growth begun and fueled by the investments made in recent years and linked to the more glamorous repositioning of the brand. The management believes that in the 2016-17 financial year the Group may continue to grow at rates similar and even higher than those of 2015-16. The management expects that, at a stable Euro-Dollar exchange rate, profitability will improve thanks to increasing gross margins and thanks the complete reorganization of a few less profitable geographical areas of business. In that context, the management will be closely monitoring margins and operating costs to increase the R&D effort and international marketing with the objective of increasing brand visibility and awareness.

In light of the above comments and the financial soundness of the Piquadro Group, Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements of Piquadro S.p.A. have been prepared under the assumption of business continuity.

At the next Shareholders' Meeting, scheduled for 26 July 2016 at 11 a.m. in first call at the head offices of Piquadro S.p.A., and in second call at the same time and place on 27 July, the Board of Directors of Piquadro S.p.A. will propose the distribution of a dividend of € 0.04 per share, calculated on the shares outstanding at today's date (50,000,000 shares).

The total amount of the proposed dividend is therefore € 2 million. The dividend will be placed in payment from 3 August 2016 (date of record 2 August 2016) by detaching coupon no. 9 on 1 August 2016.

This memorandum presents a few alternative performance indicators to permit a better assessment of the profitability and financial operation of the Group. Those indicators must not be regarded as substitutes for the conventional ones contemplated in the IFRS. More specifically, the alternative indicator presented is EBITDA (gross operating margin) defined as earnings before depreciation and amortization, interest, and current income taxes. With regard to the financial reporting schedules contained in the memorandum, please note that auditing activity has not yet been completed on these data.

The manager responsible for preparing the Piquadro S.p.A.'s, financial reports, Roberto Trotta, declares – pursuant to paragraph 2 of Article 154-bisof Italy's Legislative Decree 58/1998 – that the accounting information contained in this press release and relevant to the financial year 2015/2016, corresponds to the documented results, books, and accounting records.

The financial statements as of March 31, 2016 are currently being audited and the report on operations as well as the corporate governance and ownership structure report are also being reviewed by the independent auditors. The audit process is underway.

Remuneration Report

The Board of Directors today approved the Remuneration Report pursuant to art. 123-ter of Legislative Decree 58/1998 (the Consolidated Law on Financial Intermediation "TUF") and the implementation of the regulations issued by the Consob. The Board has also resolved to present and submit to the advisory vote of the next Shareholders' Meeting the first Section of the Report, illustrating the Company's Policy on remuneration for the Directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities, pursuant to art. 123-ter of the TUF.

Corporate Governance Report

Today, the Board of Directors also approved the Corporate Governance Report for the year ended on March 31, 2016, which contains information on Company's compliance with the Governance Code for listed companies promoted by Borsa Italiana S.p.A. and the additional information required by applicable legislation.

Convening of the Shareholders' Meeting

The today's Board of Directors' meeting also resolved to call an ordinary Shareholders' Meeting for July 26, 2016 and, if necessary, in a second convening, for July 28, 2016 in order to resolve on the following matters, as well as to approve the Financial Statements as of March 31, 2016:

Own shares

The renewal of the authorization request from the Shareholders' Meeting for the purchase and sale of own shares has the main objective of stabilizing the price of the Company's shares and supporting liquidity but also to make it possible to create, if the Board of Directors will deem it necessary, a 'Share Stock' – to be used as consideration in case of extraordinary dealings, even by means of shares' exchange, with third parties in the interest of the Company - in accordance with market practice no. 2 referred to in Consob Resolution 16839/2009. The proposal of the Board, if approved by the Shareholders' Meeting, envisages that the Board is authorized to purchase own shares in the maximum number permitted by the Law, for a period of 12 months from the authorization date - that is, until the Shareholders' Meeting which will approve the Financial Statements as of March 31, 2017 - by using the reserves available as posted in the last duly approved Financial Statements. These operations may be carried out, in one or more

installments, by purchasing shares, pursuant to art.144-bis, paragraph 1, letter b, of the Issuer Regulations, in regulated markets following operating modalities provided for in the regulations

for the organization and management of the markets themselves, which do not permit the direct combination of the purchase negotiation proposals with predetermined sale negotiation proposals. The purchases may be made with modalities different from those indicated above pursuant to art. 132, paragraph 3, of the TUF or other regulations from time to time applicable at the time of the transaction. The share purchase price will be identified accordingly from time to time, with regard to the method preselected for the execution of the transaction and in accordance with the provisions of law, regulations or accepted market practices, within a minimum and a maximum which may be determined using the following criteria:

• the minimum purchase consideration must not in any case be 20% lower than the reference price which the share registered during the Stock Exchange session on the day before each transaction;

• the maximum purchase consideration must not in any case be 10% higher than the reference price which the share registered during the Stock Exchange session on the day before each transaction.

If the own shares purchase transaction are carried out within the accepted practices with reference to the liquidity support activity referred to in point 1 of Consob Resolution 16839/2009, notwithstanding the further limits provided for by such Resolution, the price for the purchase negotiation proposals must not be higher than the higher of: a) the price of the most recent independent transaction or b) the current price of the highest independent purchase negotiation proposal present in the market in which the purchase proposals are submitted. The proposal of the Board also envisages authorization for the sale, in one or more installments, of any own shares purchased, at a consideration, which will be set by the Board of Directors, not 20% lower than the reference price, which the share registered during the Stock Exchange session on the day before each transaction. The authorization to the sale of own shares is also requested to the Shareholders' Meeting, from the authorization date - that is the Shareholders' Meeting which will take place on July 26, 2016 with no time limits. If the own share sale operations are carried out within the accepted practices in relation to the market liquidity support activity, as referred to in point 1 of Consob Resolution 16839/2009, without prejudice to the further limits provided for by that Resolution, the price for the sale negotiation proposals must not be lower than the lower of: a) the price of the most recent independent transaction and or b) the current price of the lowest independent sale negotiation proposal present in the market in which the sale proposals are submitted. The Company does not currently hold own shares; the subsidiary companies do not hold any Company's shares.
