What is Factoring? (1/2)

What is Factoring? (2/2)

certified

redit management (debtor management and payment collection) is the core business of a factoring company and allows the creditor to outsource activities that are usually carried out in-house, thus achieving:

  • Greater effectiveness (credit management is the core business of a Factor)
  • Greater efficiency (a Factor can leverage on economies of scale)

1

In the credit insurance service, the Factor analyses the specific features of the assigned receivables and can issue a solvency guarantee

3

CREDIT INSURANCE

FURTHER KEY TAKEAWAYS ON FACTORING

  • □ Factoring is a flexible tool for the management of working capital, offering a wide range of services to release, manage and successfully deliver trade receivables;
  • ☐ The legal instrument underpinning factoring is the assignment of receivables in accordance with Law no. 52 of 21 February 1991 (Law on the assignment of receivables).

A strategic asset: our proprietary digital platform

Data LTM, as of September 2025

A unique business model, leveraging factoring features

The peculiarity of Generalfinance's business model is the choice of Seller–Debtor, where clients (Sellers) typically have a low credit rating ("Special situation") while the Debtors underlying customer loans refer to a high credit rating (normally investment grade)

PRODUCTS

  • ✓ Pro-solvendo factoring (c. 75% of turnover; vs 17% Assifact1 )
  • ✓ Pro-soluto factoring (c. 25% of turnover; vs 83% Assifact 1 )
  • ✓ Reverse factoring
  • ✓ C. 73% of turnover covered by insurance with Allianz Trade
  • 75% LTV Pro solvendo in 9M 2025, adjustable according to credit risk

CUSTOMERS (special situations)

  • ✓ High ratio Debtor/Seller (61 vs 6 of Assifact average2 )
  • ✓ Average Seller retention about 6.6 years

Distressed Bonis (High risk) NewCo

  • 1) Generalfinance data refers to September 30, 2025 (LTM); Assifact data refers to June 30, 2025;

Risk reduction in Distressed Factoring

Given that the majority of Generalfinance's turnover is realized towards distressed Sellers, the Company can benefit from a reduction in risk, because of 3 main factors

Lower Credit Risk

  • o Effects of insolvency proceedings on financial position (ex. credit write-offs)
  • o Recovery and relaunch plan
  • o Possible change in the Governance
  • o Possible capital injection or new financing
  • o Predeductibility (i.e., superpriority) of receivables arising from loans disbursed in execution of the plan and loans disbursed prior to the submission of the composition with creditors plan, respectively, if the conditions provided by the regulations are met

Lower Operating Risk

  • o Court approval (arrangement with creditors, restructuring agreement)
  • o Supervision by the court commissioner (arrangement with creditors)
  • o Presence of high standing Financial Advisors and Legal Counsels
  • o Management change

Lower Risk of Clawback Action

  • o Financial assistance for the implementation of the agreement / plan / arrangement with creditors with exemptions from clawback actions
  • o Authorization for bridge financing (in these cases, the risk of clawback actions is excluded on a de facto basis)
  • o Factoring law and related protections (clawback actions regarding collections from assigned debtors)

International growth in the Spanish market

  • ✓ Spain offers a legal and regulatory framework similar to Italy, allowing greater operational flexibility as factoring is considered an atypical contract and is not subject to restrictions.
  • ✓ Generalfinance plans to replicate its operational and origination model in Spain, adapting it to local specifics.
  • ✓ The absence of specialized players in distressed factoring highlights a strategic opportunity for Generalfinance.
  • ✓ The branch is based on a low cost model and is located in Madrid.

The Factoring & Confirming market in Spain reached ~270 €bn in 2023 (~ 18.5% of GDP) with a turnover CAGR of ~10% between 19'-23'

International growth in the Swiss market

emarket sdir storoge certified

  • ✓ The post-pandemic credit crunch sees Swiss banks becoming more restrictive in their lending to SMEs and could open opportunity for factoring.
  • ✓ The structure of the Swiss economy is characterized by small and mediumsized enterprises (>99% of companies); ~55% of employees work for
    companies with more than 50 employees and therefore fall into the initial
    target market of Generalfinance.
  • ✓ The Swiss economy has remained stable from both real economy and financial market perspectives in recent years, yet credit deterioration and high bankruptcy risks persist.

Benefits of pro-solvendo lending contract

The offsetting mechanism is a specific technicality of the Factoring Agreement, which is elaborated consistently with the Assifact standard

ARTICLE 28 OF GENERALFINANCE FACTORING AGREEMENT

"The Factor will be entitled to retain sums and set off the debts (of every kind) due by the Factor to the Seller against the Receivables (of every kind) due from the Seller to the Factor, including the Receivables due from the Seller to third parties and assigned to/guaranteed by the Factor.

Should the Seller default on any of its payment obligations, the Factor will be able to treat its Receivables as liquid and payable, even if not already fallen due. Offsets by the Seller require the prior written consent of the Factor".

In FY 2021, Generalfinance paid an average advance equal to 80% of Turnover. With regard to the prosolvendo factoring, Generalfinance is entitled to set off amounts owed by the Sellers to it against amounts owed by Generalfinance to the Sellers based on specific clauses included in the factoring agreement.

The Company has a high Debtor/Seller ratio equal to 58, growing steadily over the last 3 financial years, against an average of the Italian factoring market calculated excluding private assigned Debtors - equal to 101 , which expands the possibilities of offsetting between receivables and debit items against the Sellers as part of pro-solvendo transactions.
