October 01 2025 9M 25 Preliminary Revenues

Brunello Cucinelli

3

We closed the first nine months of the year with excellent results in terms of turnover, with growth of 10.8% at current exchange rates (11.3% at constant exchangerates) and, given the quality of sales, we believe the same applies in terms of profit; we feel that the image of the brand clearly conveys how we seek to live andwork.

Milan's Women's Fashion Week has now come to an end: our collection received extremely positive reviews for style, craftsmanship, quality, and exclusivity, and are, of course, very pleased with this.

I had three great masters I grew up with: the exquisitely refined Jil Sander, the genius-like Ralph Lauren, and the visionary Giorgio Armani, and I have been nurturedby their refinement, their brilliance, and their immense poetic vision. This has been a week in which homage was paid to the figure and the work of the great GiorgioArmani; in the world of all those who love beauty, understatement, and work, the star of the great master Giorgio has set in the earthly realm, after long shining the firmament of the most brilliant artists of our times, and from now on it will beam gloriously in the sphere of immortal spirits as the absolute symbol of Italianfashion. To him, the honour of the greats.

Of course, if in this same week we had not been faced with what we have described as a "not very orthodox short selling project" directed at our Fashion House, would have been preferable, and a little less demanding both for me and for the two CEOs and the Investor Relator; yet what has happened is part of being listed the stock exchange and of its rules, not always employed in a compliant manner. On the matter I have received countless expressions of appreciation.

As for the rest, everything has remained particularly special at our company. We have probably had the most beautiful fashion week in our history in terms of numberof journalists, celebrities, talents, and final clients from boutiques in various parts of the world, to whom we dedicated an exclusive evening. We therefore expect to close the year with healthy turnover growth of around 10%, and consequently sound profits; and in light of the results of the Spring-Summer2026 sales campaign, which we deem excellent, and the sell-outs of the winter collection, which are going very, very well, we envisage a 2026 with revenues growthof around 10%.

EUROPE

Solid domestic base of our business across European countries, combined with high-end tourism – including American clients - supported a +10.7% increase in the third quarter, improving further versus the previous quarter.

In Italy, the delivery dynamics of the Spring-Summer 2025 and Fall-Winter 2025 collections particularly benefited the second quarter results.

AMERICAS

3Q25 showed further improvement, with strong results in directly operated stores and Luxury Department Stores, where apparel remained a top-performing category. In-season sales outpaced last year in both retail and multibrand, while U.S. price adjustment for Fall-Winter 2025 collection offset new tariffs without affecting demand.

ASIA

China continued to deliver double-digit growth, representing about 13% of sales, supported by the new Shanghai Pudong boutique and steady growth in existing stores. Despite multiple opportunities for prestigious locations, the company chose not to accelerate distribution.

Middle East also contributed positively with the new Abu Dhabi boutique in 3Q, while South Korea remained solid and Japan continued to support regional growth.

Channel Highlights

RETAIL CHANNEL

Revenues grew across all regions in the first nine months and in 3Q, which reached €208.9 million, up +13.9% at current exchange rates.

Growth was driven by strong like-for-like performance and supported by the new openings in Abu Dhabi The Gallery and IFC Shanghai Pudong, as well as the progressive contribution of stores opened late last year.

The Spring-Summer 2025 collection sell-out was very positive, in line with past seasons, further supporting healthy inventory management.

WHOLESALE CHANNEL

The multibrand channel remained particularly strong, confirming its strategic role.

The Spring-Summer 2025 season delivered very solid sell-through results for wholesale partners, while initial sales of the Fall-Winter 2025 collection in stores are also performing well.

The order intake for the Spring-Summer 2026 men's and women's collections closed with highly positive results, confirming the enthusiastic reception from multibrand clients, managers, and specialized press.

Outlook

8

The results achieved in the first nine months, combined with the excellent sell-out of the Fall-Winter 2025 collection currently in stores, provide us today with even clearer visibility and even stronger confidence in achieving the targets set for 2025, with an expected revenue growth of around +10%, always accompanied by healthy and balanced profit

The final months of the year will be enriched by major events in Japan and Korea and will conclude with two particularly significant appointments: - The prestigious Outstanding Achievement Award that the British Fashion Council will present to Brunello Cucinelli on December 1st in London; The world première of the film "Brunello, the gentle visionary", a documentary dedicated to his life and works, directed by Oscar-winning director Giuseppe

  • Tornatore, with music by Oscar-winning composer Nicola Piovani

With the execution of the activities just described and the completion of the plan that includes two openings and two expansions in the final quarter, we expect harmonious and well-distributed growth across different geographical areas and various channels Finally, we would like to point out that 2025 represents a very important year for investments, with the 2024-2026 three-year plan for Made in Italy artisanal production being completed one year ahead of schedule, along with the doubling of the Solomeo factory, which will allow us to operate with peace of mind untilaround2035

Looking ahead to next year, the excellent order intake for the Spring-Summer 2026 collections and the quality of the feedback on the collections reinforce our confidence in achieving revenue growth of around +10% for 2026 as well, with healthy and balanced profits.

Healthy inventory management

9

As a Ready-to-Wear luxury brand with broad, constantly renewed seasonal collections (about 1,000 models per season and per gender), the company structurally maintains a higher inventory level than brands focused on narrower categories such as accessories

An inventory incidence around 28–29% is fully consistent with our operating model and has

remained stable over time. As of June 30, 2025, inventory stood at 28.2% of sales, compared with 28.9% at year-end 2024 and a historical average of 30.9% (2012–2024), despite retail sales growing from 27.5% of revenues in 2012 to 66.6% in 2024

Part of inventory is considered a vital investment in creativity, fueling constant prototyping, innovation, and quality in line with the brand's contemporary collections and style. Inventory levels and related provisions also reflect two long-standing projects aligned with the company's values

Finally, the limited presence of past-season products online or in outlet points is consistent

with fashion and luxury dynamics and has never hindered the brand's positioning at the very top of the luxury pyramid, defined as "absolute luxury."

Inventory and Sector Comparison

10

Alongside these structural aspects, it should be clarified that the comparison with peers is often influenced by non-homogeneous criteria. When we comment on inventory, we always refer to its incidence on revenues, and not to the days of inventory, which in financial practice are calculated on the Cost of Goods Sold. Our income statement is presented according to a classification by nature of costs, therefore not reporting the Cost of Goods Sold. Based on the classification by nature, instead, Production Costs are presented, which include: Costs for raw materials and consumables External processing classified under the item Costs for services.The Cost of Goods Sold, instead determined by other peers in the sector, also includes other costs that we record by nature under other items of the income statement. These are costs related to internal production and to creative and prototype development, which impact both personnel and service costs (energy, maintenance, security, depreciation, etc. for the function of internal factories dedicated to production). As mentioned above, our income statement format therefore follows a criterion by nature (Revenues – Production Costs = First Margin) and not by destination as adopted by other peers (Revenues – Cost of Goods Sold = Gross Margin). Should we have opted for the possibility of presenting the income statement by classifying costs by destination instead of by nature, thus consequently determining the Gross Margin, this would result significantly lower than the First Margin reported at 74.5% both for the period ended June 30, 2025 and for the year ended December 31, 2024.For this reason, calculating days of inventory using the item Production Costs instead of Cost of Goods Sold leads to an overestimation which, in our opinion, is not correct.

The value of Multibrand and Exclusivity

11

The multibrand channel has always represented a fundamental value for our company, an authentic guardian of the brand's taste

The company was born with multibrand and still today relies on about 400 of the most prestigious partners worldwide

Their role goes beyond revenue, extending to the ability to keep the collections fresh, relevant, and contemporary

Over the decades, the behaviour of multibrand partners has always proved serious and highly inspiring; difficulties have been rare and, whenever the behavior was not appropriate, the relationship was discontinued

It is natural that, at the end of the season, they may liquidate unsold items left out of assortment, but they always do so with great care, fully aware that their own image is at stake as well

We believe that such episodes remain marginal and of little significance. For this reason, we confirm our trust in this channel

Presence in multibrand stores, as it is managed, not only does not reduce perceived exclusivity of the brand, but strengthens and enhances it

Business management in Russia

12

The three directly operated flagship stores, large in size and representing the brand's image in the country, all built or expanded just before the start of the conflict, have remained closed since the introduction of sanctions

At the same time, we chose to keep the structure of our Russian subsidiary unchanged, continuing to guarantee full salaries to employees and to honor lease contracts, as we have always done worldwide in extraordinary situations. The staff of the currently closed boutiques are now engaged in one-to-one sales activities at our showroom

Brand-dedicated spaces within larger multibrand structures remain operational. Among these, we highlight two spaces directly managed by our Russian subsidiary (in addition to a small space dedicated exclusively to the children's collection). Revenues generated in the directly managed spaces are recorded within the retail channel

Revenues in Russia

Revenues generated by our Casa di Moda in Russia, which accounted for 9.3% in 2021, have steadily declined since the beginning of the conflict, amounting to about €30.6 million in 2024, equal to 2.4% of total revenues Specifically, retail revenues in Russia amounted to €15.0 million as of December 31, 2024, while the wholesale channel recorded a total value of €15.6 million as of December 31, 2024 In detail, exports to our Russian subsidiary decreased from €16.8 million as of December 31, 2021 to €5.9 million as of December 31, 2024, as reported in public financial statements As of September 30, 2025, total revenues in Russia (including retail and wholesale channels) amounted to about €14.8 million, equal to 1.4% of Group revenues. The same number was about €25.3 million, equal to 2.7% of Group revenues, as at September 30, 2024 We recall that as of June 30, 2025, the incidence of total revenues in Russia was 1.6%,

compared with 3.2% reported as of June 30, 2024
