Franchetti accelerates international growth and extends predictive maintenance activities in Latin America

Arzignano (VI), 24 November 2025 – Franchetti S.p.A. (Ticker BIT: FCH), the parent company of the multinational group of the same name specialized in advanced diagnostics, digital monitoring and predictive maintenance solutions for infrastructures, announces the signing of a new strategic agreement aimed at consolidating its presence in Latin America, expanding its activities in Chile, Mexico, Colombia and Peru thanks to the collaboration with a local operator of primary standing.

The expansion is part of the Group's international growth path, which has already been active for years in Brazil, where it continues to record particularly positive performances. The new agreement further strengthens Franchetti's ability to operate with proprietary technologies based on predictive algorithms and digital twin platforms applied to bridges, viaducts and critical infrastructure.

"Expansion in Latin America represents a fundamental strategic lever in the Group's international growth path. After the positive results we continue to achieve in Brazil, we are now entering new markets where our technology has already successfully passed the proof-of-concept phase, confirming its full effectiveness and facilitating the start of operational activities. These countries are significantly increasing infrastructure investment and demand for advanced predictive solutions. This scenario allows us to enhance our technological know-how and further consolidate the Group's international positioning. Our proprietary platforms – based on predictive algorithms and digital twin models – respond to the priorities of countries committed to digitizing and making their critical infrastructures more resilient. The new agreement, after the test phase, strengthens Franchetti's role as a reference partner in the transition towards a safer, more sustainable and efficient management of international infrastructure assets," said Paolo Franchetti, Chairman and CEO of the Group.

The agreement signed will allow Franchetti to structure continuous activities in four other of the continent's most dynamic markets, with the aim of:

• support government programs and private concessions in predictive maintenance processes;
• implement digital platforms for advanced structural risk management;
• expand the already consolidated model in Brazil, replicating a scalable and highly technological approach;

• contribute to the security and resilience of critical infrastructures in the area.

A booming market

According to industry estimates, the Latin American market for bridge inspection, maintenance and monitoring services reached a value of between USD 700 million and USD 900 million in 2024, benefiting from a growing demand for advanced technological solutions for structural risk management. The region accounts for approximately 13%–16% of the global market, valued at more than \$5.6 billion in 2024, and shows a growth trend supported by aging infrastructure, complex environmental conditions, and public safety programs.

Chile

The Chilean market for bridge maintenance and inspection is estimated at between USD 60 million and USD 90 million per year, with an expected development of 5%–7% in the coming years. The presence of outdated infrastructure, the high seismic risk and the new government programs for the recovery, conservation and digitization of public works make Chile one of the most mature contexts for the adoption of predictive solutions. Chile's share accounts for about 8–10% of the regional market, with a projection that could exceed USD 100 million by 2030 thanks to the increasing penetration of digital platforms and IoT systems.

Peru

The predictive maintenance market in Peru is worth USD 100–120 million annually and has a growth rate of more than 15%. The country is accelerating infrastructure investments, supported by extraordinary post-pandemic programs and a strong adoption of digital technologies. The MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Operations) market reached USD 3.43 billion in 2024, and the bridge and road infrastructure component is now one of the most dynamic in the area. The adoption of IoT solutions and predictive models allows cost reductions of up to 40%, favoring their use at scale.

Colombia

In Colombia, the predictive maintenance market is estimated at between 150 and 180 million USD per year, with growth rates of over 20%. From 2026 to 2053, the government has planned investments of USD 34 billion for 30 strategic projects, many of which include digital systems for predictive infrastructure management. The country represents one of the most innovative realities in the area, with a strong diffusion of digital twin, advanced sensors and artificial intelligence platforms applied to structural safety.

Mexico

Mexico is among the most important markets in the area, with an estimated value of USD 350–400 million per year and an expected growth of more than 20% per year until 2030.Il National Infrastructure Plan 2025–2030 envisages investments of more than €8.5 billion in roads and bridges. A significant part of the funds is dedicated to intelligent monitoring and predictive maintenance systems. Dominant technologies include IoT, digital twins, and AI platforms, with estimated 30% savings in maintenance costs compared to traditional methods.
