The scope of consolidation at 31 March 2025 did not change compared to 31 December 2024.
| Market and air traffic developments | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The trend of air traffic in Q1 2025, for the Eurocontrol member states, confirms the growth trend that had already | ||||
| emerged in the previous financial year, recording an increase in managed volumes of +5.3% in terms of Service | ||||
| Units (SUs) and +4.1% in the number of managed flights, compared to the same period in 2024. | ||||
| In the first three months of 2025, en-route service units (*) referring to Italy recorded an increase of 7.4%, | ||||
| compared to the same period in 2024, recording the best change after Spain among those achieved by the states | ||||
| of the so-called comparator group of continental Europe. | ||||
| The terminal service units registered in Italy were also positive at +5.6%, compared to the corresponding period | ||||
| of the previous year, showing a trend in line with that recorded for en-route traffic. | ||||

The performance of air traffic in Italy during Q1 2025 is also reflected in the trend of passenger traffic at Italian airports. According to the latest figures published by ENAC, over 43 million passengers travelled during the period under review, an increase of 8% compared to the same period last year. Domestic traffic, with 14.5 million passengers, increased by +6% compared to the same period of the previous year, while international traffic recorded higher growth of +9%, with 28.7 million passengers. The average number of passengers carried per flight also increased, from 121 in Q1 2024 to 125 in Q1 2025 (about +3.3%).
Total en-route traffic in Italy shows, in Q1 2025, an increase in both service units (SUs) reported by Eurocontrol, which stand at +7.4% (same result considering the residual category Exempt not reported to Eurocontrol) and the number of assisted flights by +7.8% (same result if also including the category of residual flights Exempt not reported to Eurocontrol), compared to the corresponding period of 2024.
The positive trend in air traffic flows in Q1 2025, confirms the high tourist attractiveness of Italy, although some critical issues on the international scenario remain in the reporting period, such as the Russian-Ukrainian and Israeli-Palestinian crises. The analysis of the routes that affected the domestic airspace in Q1 2025, classified according to the distance in kilometres travelled, shows, in comparison with the corresponding period of 2024, a significant increase for all bands considered, mainly for medium-mileage (between 350 and 700 km) and lowmileage (< 350 km) in domestic airspace respectively of +9% and +8%.

international commercial traffic, a category of flights departing from or arriving at an airport on Italian territory, which recorded a positive result in Q1 2025 both in terms of service units (SUs) equal to +6.5% and in the number of assisted flights equal to +6%. International air traffic represents, in terms of 2025 SUs, around 39% of the total SUs reported to Eurocontrol.
With regard to the mileage of international traffic routes (low, medium and high mileage on domestic airspace) in the period under review, the low and medium mileage categories recorded an increase of 6% and 10% respectively in terms of service units compared to the corresponding period in 2024, while the high mileage category decreased slightly.
With regard to flight routes per continent, Q1 2025 showed, in terms of service units, an increase for all routes between Italy and the geographical areas of the rest of the world, with the exception of the American Continent. In particular, connections between Italy and Europe, representing about 75% of the total international SUs, record an increase of 6%, while those to Asia and Africa record an increase respectively of 10% and 12%;
commercial overflight traffic, a category of movements only crossing domestic airspace, which recorded an increase in both service units (+10%) and the number of assisted flights (+12.7%) in Q1 2025 with a reduction in the average distance travelled (-2.5%). Overflight traffic, in terms of SUs 2025, represents about 42% of the total SUs reported by Eurocontrol.
With reference to the kilometre distances travelled during the period under review, there was a greater use of routes in all kilometre ranges, and in particular medium-haul routes (between 400 km and 800 km), which recorded an increase of +17% in terms of service units. With respect to the main traffic routes, in the first three months of 2025, we highlight the positive trend of connections involving Europe for intra-European flights (+13% SUs), Europe-Asia (+12% SUs) and Europe-Africa (+6% SUs), representing 47%, 17% and 26% of the total overflight SUs respectively;
With regard to airlines, in Q1 2025, the flight activity of the low-cost segment remained central to the volumes of air traffic generated in Italian airspace, with Ryanair, Wizz Air and Easyjet ranking among the top four airlines in terms of the number of SUs developed in the first three months of 2025. Ryanair is the leading airline in Italy in terms of traffic volumes, with a market share of 21% of the total 2025 SUs, up 10.8% compared to the same period in 2024. The airline Easyjet also showed improvement compared to the same period of the previous year, with +8.4% and an 5% share of the Italian market. Among traditional carriers, decreasing results were recorded among Middle Eastern companies such as Turkish Airlines (-3.5% SUs), Qatar Airways (-6.9% SUs) and Emirates (- 8% SUs), while positive results were recorded for Saudia (+20.4% SUs). Among the major European airlines, Lufthansa (+5.9% SUs) and Air France (+18.4% SUs) achieved positive results in Q1 2025, compared to the corresponding period of 2024. The largest domestic operator ITA Airways (Italia Trasporto Aereo) recorded a slight decrease of -1.4% in terms of SUs, confirming itself as the second company in terms of volumes produced, with a market share that represents approximately 8% of the total SUs 2025.
The terminal traffic reported by Eurocontrol, which concerns take-off and landing activities within a radius of 20 km from the runway, records, in Q1 2025, a positive trend both in terms of service units of +5.6% and in number of assisted flights +4.9%, compared to the corresponding period of the previous year. The average aircraft weight increased by +0.9%. In 2025, the domestic terminal charging zones were redefined, with the former Charging Zone 1 (which included Rome Fiumicino airport) and the former Charging Zone 2 (which included Milan Malpensa, Milan Linate, Venice Tessera and Orio al Serio airports) being merged into the new Charging Zone 1, while the
| former Charging Zone 3 was merged into the new Charging Zone 2. The figures in the following tables for Q1 2024 | ||||

In overall terms, the results of Q1 2025 compared with the corresponding period of the previous year show increases in activity in terms of service units and assisted flights common to both charging zones. More specifically:
ENAV core business is regulated at a European level through the submission and approval, through the regulatory body (ENAC), of the Performance Plan in which various objectives are defined, including the cost and traffic levels necessary to determine the tariffs for the five-year duration of the plan.
The performance plan covering the period 2025 - 2029 took effect in 2025. This plan, downstream of the European Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2024/1688, which established the economic efficiency and operational capacity targets at Union level for the reference period 2025-2029 (so-called RP4), and after the discussion phases with ENAC, as the national regulator of reference for the Community performance and tariff scheme, was transmitted by ENAC to the European Commission in the last quarter of 2024.
In this context, it should be noted that at national level, some changes were jointly made to the terminal charging zones, envisaging in particular for the definition from 2025 of two new charging zones subject to EU regulation in the field of unit rates and performance, composed as follows:
The Italian Performance Plan for Reference Period 4 received compliance in March 2025 from the Performance Review Body (PRB), a technical body that supports the European Commission in evaluating plans, and is now awaiting final approval by the Commission itself, which is expected to arrive within the first half of 2025.
It should be noted that the type of business in which the Parent Company operates is normally affected by seasonality. Indeed, air traffic trends are by nature non-linear over the course of the year. In particular, air traffic shows significant variations depending on the time of year, depending on tourism-related activities.
Specifically, the level of revenues, which is closely linked to the level of air traffic, peaks in the summer months and is therefore not uniform throughout the year, while the costs of the service show an almost linear trend throughout the year. It follows that the Group's interim results do not contribute uniformly to the formation of the year's economic and financial results.
The ENAV Group, in line with Consob communication no. 0092543 of 3 December 2015, which implements the guidelines issued on 5 October 2015 by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) no. 2015/1415, presents, in addition to the economic-equity and financial data required by the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), some indicators derived from the latter that provide management with an additional parameter for assessing the performance achieved by the Group as well as ensuring greater comparability, reliability and comprehensibility of financial reporting.
The alternative performance indicators used are as follows:
The reclassified consolidated schedules for the income statement, statement of financial position and statement of cash flows, the consolidated statement of net financial debt and the key economic and financial indicators used by management to monitor performance are reported below.
Like every first quarter of the year, the ENAV Group's results are affected by the seasonality of the Parent Company's business, which determines traffic volumes and therefore substantially higher revenues in the summer period, while the first quarter results weigh about 18% on an annual basis, against costs that tend to be linear throughout the year. In this first quarter of 2025, the seasonality is even more evident as it coincides with the start of the new Performance Plan (so-called RP4), which took effect in January 2025, and which also saw the inclusion in performance of the former terminal charging zone 3 (new zone 2) that was subject until 2024 to a national regulatory scheme that provided for the determination of a Balance according to a cost recovery logic, an element that in the first quarter of the year partly sterilised the effects related to the seasonality of the business. These elements affect the ENAV Group's results for Q1 2025 and determine the different way in which the item Balance emerged in the first quarter in question, compared to the corresponding Q1 2024. The latter, in fact, included the Balance of the former charging band 3 determined according to a cost recovery logic (positive €8.7 million) and the inflation Balance (positive €10.6 million), an element not present in the year of the start of a new regulatory period that, in conjunction with the major balance utilization n-2 for negative € 17.6 million, determines a negative variation between the two periods under comparison of €35.8 million.
Revenues from operating activities, on the other hand, showed an excellent result at €210.5 million, an increase of 12.4% compared to the same period last year. This result stems from the increased air traffic managed, which confirms the growth in air traffic volumes already shown in 2024, and which is +7.4% in terms of en-route service units and +5.6% in terms of terminal service units, compared to the corresponding period of 2024, and a 4.2% increase in non-regulated market revenues.
Operating expenses recorded an overall increase of +2.8%, compared to Q1 2024, due to higher personnel expenses for 2.4% and operating expenses for 4.2%, dynamics partially mitigated by the increase in capitalised internal works for +3.9%, effects that, together with the decrease in total revenues of -6.4%, for what has been reported above in the Balance, determine a negative EBITDA of €0.9 thousand, down compared to the corresponding period of the previous year, when it was positive for €16.5 million.

| stood at negative €10.3 million. | ||||
| Financial operations accounted for a negative €2.2 million, a slight increase over Q1 2024. | ||||
| As a result of these dynamics, the result for the period stands at a consolidated loss of €29.3 million, an increase | ||||
| of €15.5 million, compared to the comparison period, in which the consolidated loss for the period amounted to | ||||

Revenues from operating activities amounted to €210.5 million, an increase of €23.3 million compared to the same period of the previous year, made up of €203.4 million from the Parent Company's core business (+€23 million compared to Q1 2024) and €7.1 million from the Group's activities on the non-regulated market.

| Commercial en-route revenue amounted to €149.7 million up by €21.8 million, compared to the corresponding | ||||
| period of the previous year, as a result of the higher service units developed in the reporting period, which | ||||
| amounted to +7.3% (+8.8% Q1 2024 vs Q1 2023) with a good performance of international and overflight traffic. | ||||
| This is reflected in the revenue, with a tariff applied in 2025 of €74.94, an increase of 9% compared to the 2024 | ||||
| tariff (€68.77) for the balance portion only, as the tariff net of the balance amounts to €60.56, a slight decrease | ||||
| compared to the 2024 tariff (-0.9%). | ||||
| Considering en-route revenues also with the component of exempt flights, which recorded an increase of 27.6% | ||||
| due to the greater exempt service units that emerged in the period (+17.2% vs Q1 2024), and the adjustment | ||||
| component for Balance, en-route revenues totalled €122.9 million, slightly down compared to Q1 2024. | ||||

The en-route balance for the period had a negative impact of €0.5 million related to minor balance items in return to carriers. In the period under review, a balance for traffic risk did not arise as the service units recorded in the final balance were higher than the figure planned in the performance plan (+1.20%) and within the 2% threshold. The negative change with the comparison period is due to the inflation balance of €8.9 million in Q1 2024, which reflected the actual inflationary increase at the end of 2023 compared to the forecast figure reported in the RP3 performance plan, a figure that was not present at the start of the new regulatory plan. The Balance item amount also includes the utilisation in the income statement of the balance recognised in the 2020-2021 combined-period for the portion pertaining to the period, in addition to the balance recognised in the two previous years and recoverable in the tariff in 2025.
Commercial terminal revenues amounted to €50.6 million and increased 1.2% compared to Q1 2024, due to the positive performance of the service units developed at individual airports broken down by charging zones, which in total stood at +5.6% (+10.6% Q1 2024 vs Q1 2023). As of January 2025, with the Performance Plan referring to the new 2025-2029 regulatory period, the terminal charging zones have become two as opposed to the three zones of the previous regulatory period and include all airports, superseding the national regulatory scheme applied to the previous charging zone 3, which did not operate on a performance basis but according to a cost recovery logic and which now represents the new charging zone 2.
Charging zone 1, now represented by the previous zone 1 and zone 2, refers to the airports of Rome Fiumicino, Milan Malpensa, Milan Linate, Venice Tessera and Bergamo Orio al Serio, recorded an increase in managed air traffic, expressed in service units, of +4.6% compared to the corresponding period of the previous financial year (+15.5% Q1 2024 vs Q1 2023) with particularly positive results for international air traffic. The tariff applied in 2025 amounts to €183.94 and is not directly comparable with 2024 where there were two separate tariffs for zone 1 and zone 2.
| Charging zone 2, comprising 40 airports with medium and low traffic, recorded a higher value in managed air | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| traffic, expressed in service units, of +7.2% compared to the corresponding period of 2024 (+3.8% Q1 2024 vs Q1 | ||||
| 2023), and mainly related to international air traffic. The 2025 tariff stands at €339.52, an increase compared to | ||||
| the tariff applied in 2024, which was €332.27 exclusively due to the recovery of the balance quota included in the | ||||
| tariff. In fact, the tariff net of the balance shows a reduction of 3.5%. | ||||
| Considering terminal revenue together with revenue from exempt flights, up 5.9% compared to the | ||||
| corresponding period of the previous year, and the adjustment component for Balance, terminal revenue totalled | ||||
| €42.8 million, a decrease of €12.1 million compared to the corresponding period of the previous year, due to the | ||||
| lack of comparability of the balance item in the two periods under comparison, since the previous charging band | ||||
| 3 was included in the Performance Plan, thus overcoming the method of determining the balance for the period | ||||
| according to the cost recovery logic, which in Q1 2024, had generated a positive balance of €8.7 million. | ||||

The terminal balance for the period, which amounted to a positive €0.1 million, did not include the balance for traffic risk, as it generated fewer service units in both charging zones than planned in the performance plan, below the threshold of 2%, and amounting respectively to -0.88% for charging zone 1 and -1.50% for charging zone 2. The period under comparison generated a higher positive balance for the inflation balance of €1.7 million and the cost-recovery balance of the former charging zone 3. The total value of the terminal balance is affected by the utilisation in the income statement of the balance recognised in the 2020-2021 combined-period for the portion
| of the period in addition to the balance recognised in the two previous years and being recovered in the 2025 tariff. |

Personnel costs recorded an overall increase of €3.5 million, compared to Q1 2024, related to fixed remuneration for the 2% revaluation of minimum contractual salaries as of July 2024, for advancements in the contractual grading levels provided for in the CCNL and for the increase in the Group's workforce to +148 average and +194 actual employees, compared to Q1 2024, mainly reflecting the hiring of operational and technical staff, closing Q1 2025 with a Group workforce of 4,576 actual units (4,382 units in Q1 2024).
The variable part of remuneration recorded a lower value of €1.7 million as a compensatory effect between the higher overtime of operating personnel related to the increase in assisted air traffic, the higher accrued and nontaken holidays and the reduction of holidays coinciding for purely calendar reasons, the holiday work of operating personnel and a general reduction in other variable items of remuneration.
| Social security charges recorded an increase of €1 million to €34.8 million, reflecting the increase in the tax base. Other personnel costs were in line with the corresponding period of the previous year.

The analysis of the individual items shows an increase in utility costs associated with the higher price of energy that emerged as of the end of 2024, an increase in other personnel costs that reflects the increase in meal vouchers due to the higher unit cost recognised to employees as of August 2024, and the higher cost for the Eurocontrol contribution. These effects were partly offset by the reduction in costs for professional services and the purchase of spare parts to support operating plants.
These values have affected the determination of EBITDA, which stands at negative €0.9 million compared to the positive €16.5 million that emerged in Q1 2024.
The determination of EBIT is affected by depreciation and amortisation, net of contributions on investments, which recorded a decrease of 8.4%, standing at negative €25 million and the negative effect between the releases of the provision for doubtful accounts for the collection of previously written-down positions and prudential allocations to the provision for risks, which have an impact of €0.3 million. These events determined an EBIT value of negative €26.2 million, an increase of €15.9 million, compared to the corresponding period of the previous year.
| Financial Management Financial income and expenses amounted to a negative €2.2 million, a slight increase compared to the |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| corresponding period of the previous year, when they were a negative €2.1 million. This increase, in the presence | ||||
| of financial income substantially in line with Q1 2024, was mainly due to the negative effect of exchange rate | ||||
| management offset by the reduction in financial expenses related to bank debt, with an estimated average annual | ||||
| borrowing rate of 3.71%, down from the average annual borrowing rate of 4.1% in 2024. | ||||

Net non-current assets amounted to €1,243.4 million, a net decrease of €59.1 million, compared to 31 December 2024, mainly due to: i) the decrease in tangible and intangible assets for a total of €14.4 million as a result of depreciation that was higher than the investments being made during the period; ii) the lower value of the investment in other companies for €0.6 million as a net effect of the adjustment of the value of the investment in Aireon to fair value, which generated a positive change of \$1.6 million compared to 31 December 2024, an effect more than offset by the change in the dollar/euro exchange rate; iii) the net reduction in non-current trade receivables for €46.3 million referring exclusively to balance receivables for the short-term reclassification of the
quotas that will be included in the tariff in 2026 net of the balance that emerged in Q1 2025 and recorded in the non-current part.
Net working capital stood at €199.6 million, a decrease of €5.9 million from 31 December 2024. The main changes concerned: i) the net increase in trade receivables of €16.8 million, referring for €1.1 million to the higher receivable from Eurocontrol as the net effect between the collection of receivables not yet due in 2024 and the higher invoicing referred to the February and March flights, not yet due, compared to the receivable referred to the flights not yet due at 31 December 2024 for €7.5 million to the higher receivable due from the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport for the contribution for plant safety and operating safety recognised on an accrual basis as of 31 March 2025 and the higher receivable for balance of €6.8 million as the net effect between the recognition in this item of receivables that will be included in the tariff in the following year and the amount recognised in the income statement on an accrual basis as of Q1 2025; ii) the net decrease in trade payables of €7.5 million mainly due to the higher payments made to the Group's suppliers compared to the payables arising in Q1 2025; iii) the change in other current assets and liabilities, which resulted in a net effect of higher payables of €29.6 million as a result of the increase in payables to personnel for provisions accrued during the period, higher other liabilities to the Italian Air Force and ENAC in the amount of €17.7 million, corresponding to the share of the collection of en-route and terminal receivable accrued during the period. These effects were partially offset by the increase in accruals and deferrals related to employees and insurance premiums for the portions pertaining to subsequent months.
Net capital employed also reflected the employee benefit provision in the amount of a negative €35 million, which recorded a reduction of €1.4 million in the period for the severance payments paid and the actuarial profit recognised at 31 March 2025, provisions for risks and charges of €11.8 million, up €0.7 million compared to the data that emerged at 31 December 2024 and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities for a net amount of positive €26.1 million.
Total consolidated shareholders' equity amounted to €1,199 million, a net decrease of €30.4 million compared to 31 December 2024. This change is mainly related to the consolidated loss recorded in Q1 2025 for €29.3 million, the reserve for the translation into euro of the balance sheets and income statements of foreign subsidiaries, which had a negative impact of €2.8 million, an effect partially offset by the recognition of the positive actuarial gain recorded on the employee benefits reserve and the positive fair value arising from the valuation of the investment in Aireon for €1.3 million.
Net financial debt at 31 March 2025 presents a balance of 223.3 million euro, an improvement of 34.9 million euro compared to the figure recorded at 31 December 2024.

Cash flow generated from operating activities in the first three months of 2025 amounted to €53.1 million, a positive change of €3.3 million compared to the figure for the corresponding period of 2024, which had generated cash of €49.9 million. This positive flow was determined by the combined effect of the following factors: i) the net decrease in current and non-current trade receivables in the amount of €29.4 million related to both the collection of the receivable due from Eurocontrol accrued in 2024 and the reduction in balance receivables as a result of the recognition in the income statement of the portion of the balance recognised in the 2020-2021 combined period and in the two previous years; ii) the increase in tax and social security payables in the amount of €7.5 million mainly due to the provisions of the social security portion recognised on personnel costs accrued in the period; iii) the net change in other current assets and liabilities in the amount of €22.5 million attributable to higher current liabilities for payables to the Italian Air Force and ENAC for their share of en-route and terminal collections accrued in the period, in addition to the increase in payables to personnel for amounts accrued in Q1 2025; iv) the decrease in current and non-current trade payables for a total of €2.7 million due both to lower payables to Group suppliers for operating activities that emerged in the quarter and to the reduction in payables for balance as a result of lower negative balance that emerged in the period compared to the portion recorded in the income statement; v) the higher consolidated loss that emerged in Q1 2025 for €15.6 million.
Cash flow from investment activities in the first three months of 2025 absorbed liquidity for €25.1 million, to a lesser extent than the figure recorded in the corresponding period of 2024 for €2.4 million. This change, in the presence of capex equal to €13.4 million, up by €1.8 million, compared to Q1 2024, is due to lower payments made to suppliers for investment projects for €4.2 million compared to the comparison period.
Cash flow from financing activities in Q1 2025 absorbed cash of €1.4 million less than in the corresponding period of the previous year in the amount of €1 million, and relates to the new entries of financial liabilities for lease in the presence of the payment of the six-monthly instalment of the loan to the EIB of the same amount as in the quarter under comparison.
The free cash flow amounted to a positive €28 million, an improvement of €5.7 million compared to the same period of the previous year, when it stood at €22.3 million due to the cash flow generated by operating activities, which fully covered the cash flow absorbed by investment activities.
