Revenue growth in Q3 2025 came to +4.1% compared with the previous year, thanks to the increase in hostings for all the main customers, the deployment of indoor coverage and new services and the positive impact of inflation. INWIT's organic revenue growth therefore continues, which, coupled with the ongoing efficiency improvements in lease costs, resulted in an expansion of the EBITDAaL margin by 0.2pp, with a ratio on revenues improving from 72.8% to 73.0%.
The industrial results show a large number of hostings and continuous growth of sites created and the tenancy ratio, which is confirmed as one of the highest in the sector.

During the third quarter of 2025, most of the main economic and financial indicators have shown a positive trend:
During the third quarter of 2025, INWIT continued to develop its business by:

Revenues stood at € 806.4 million, up +4.4% on the same period of 2024 (€ 772.1 million). EBITDA was € 737.5 million, up by +4.5% compared with the same period of 2024. EBITDAaL was € 588.4 million, up by +5.1% compared with the same period of 2024. Net profit for the period totalled € 276.7 million, up +4.0% compared with the same period of 2024.
Recurring Free Cash Flow for the first nine months of 2025 was € 485.7 million, up by 3.8% compared with the same period of 2024. Business investments for the period came to € 206.8 million, up by € 9.9 million compared with the same period of 2024 (-4.6%) and were mainly allocated to the construction of new towers, the development of indoor microcell coverage with DAS and the acquisition of land.
On 22 September 2025, in accordance with Article 13.17, section 1) of the Company Bylaws, the Board of Directors appointed by co-option Paolo Favaro, as a non-executive, independent director, following the resignation of Christian Hillabrant (see press release dated 1 September 2025).
Other developments during the quarter included the completion of 5G coverage for the entire A Line of the Rome underground and the continuation of work on coverage for the other lines. With the launch of Wi-Fi in Rome's first 55 squares, digitisation continues as part of the "Roma 5G" project, managed by the subsidiary Smart City Roma (see press release dated 15 September 2025).
Finally, the implementation of the NRRP' Italy 5G Plan continues, carried out by the Temporary Grouping of Companies (Raggruppamento Temporaneo di Imprese, RTI) comprising INWIT (as leader – agent), Tim, and Vodafone (now Fastweb-Vodafone). The Plan is in line with the European coverage goal and aims to build high-speed multi-operator 5G mobile network infrastructure in areas of "market failure", i.e., in the digital divide.

On 6 October 2025 INWIT announced the launch of a tender offer addressed to the holders of its "€ 1,000,000,000 1.875 per cent. Notes" due 8 July 2026 (XS2200215213), with a total outstanding nominal amount of € 700,000,000, and its intention to issue new Notes in Euro. Operation successfully completed on 13 October 2025 with a nominal amount accepted for the buyback of bonds maturing in 2026 equal to € 526,724,000 (see press releases dated 6 October 2025 and 13 October 2025).
On 6 October 2025, INWIT also successfully placed its first sustainability-linked bond for a total amount of € 850 million, against investor demands exceeding the offer by more than 3 times. The issue attracted more than 170 institutional investors of primary sanding, both national and international, with total demand exceeding € 2.75 billion (see press release dated 6 October 2025).
Pursuant to the authorisation granted by the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting on 15 April 2025 and the resolution of the Board of Directors on 17 April 2025 (see press release dated 22 April 2025), the first tranche of the share buyback program was completed on 8 October 2025, involving 29,518,075 shares for a gross value of € 299,997,432.53, representing 3.168% of the share capital.
Furthermore, in accordance with the resolution passed by the Shareholders' Meeting on 15 April 2025 (see press release dated 15 April 2025), on 26 November 2025 an extraordinary dividend will be paid (coupon date 24 November 2025 and record date 25 November 2025) in the amount of € 0.2147 per ordinary share.
***
INWIT is a leading digital infrastructure company and the first Italian tower company. With a network of more than 25 thousand towers (macro grid) and coverage from over 700 DAS (Distributed Antenna Systems) for active indoor locations, 11 thousand remote units (DAS, repeaters and small cells - micro grid), INWIT provides extensive and integrated coverage throughout the country to support connectivity, with a tower-as-aservice business model supporting all mobile, FWA and IoT operators.
The macroeconomic, technological and market landscape for the Tower Companies sector is shaped by positive structural trends, such as the increasing use of mobile data, the technological shift to 5G and the need to complete and densify coverage across territories. These developments are also helping to reduce the digital divide, supported by significant investments in infrastructure and digital technologies.
INWIT's 2025-2030 Business Plan envisages growth across key industrial, economic and financial metrics, underpinned by a substantial investment plan designed to meet the demand for digital infrastructure. The plan also includes a major efficiency initiative, with a focus on land acquisitions to further support expansion.
In the short term, along with limited inflation growth, difficulties are expected to persist in the Italian telecommunications market, including intense competition and limited cash generation, with an impact on investment trends. At the same time, there is strong activity in major industrial transactions, which have the potential to restore a healthier market balance and enhance operators' ability to invest more in digital infrastructure, facilitated by INWIT's business model, which creates efficiency through shared investments.

Confirming what was previously communicated, as regards the outlook for financial year 2025, we expect to see:
The aforementioned financial metrics do not include the impact of the share buyback plan for € 400 million and the distribution of an extraordinary dividend of around € 200 million.
Guidance for 2026-2030 updated at the lower end of the previously communicated ranges, mainly to reflect the continuing difficult market conditions for Telcos in Italy, with a focus on recovering efficiencies and greater selectivity in investments. Added to this is the effect of a lower inflation rate in 2025, approximately +1.5% compared to forecasts of +1.7%.
In particular, the following is expected:
The Board of Directors approved the calendar of company events for 2026, confirming, for the same financial year, the practice of publishing, on a voluntary basis, the interim reports on operations as at 31 March and 30 September.
