These statements are based on the Group's cur-rent expectations and projections of future events and, by their nature, are subject to an intrinsic component of risk and uncer-tainty. They refer to events and depend on circumstances that may, or may not, happen or occur in the future. Actual results may differ from those contained in these statements due to a variety of factors, such as volatility in capital and financial mar-kets, changes in macroeconomic conditions and economic growth and other changes in business conditions, changes in legisla-tion and on the institutional scenario and many other factors, including possible developments in the Covid-19 pandemic, most of which are outside the control of the Group.

Report on the management of group AbitareIn

The AbitareIn Group specialises in implementing urban regeneration and redevelopment residential projects involving the purchase of disused or abandoned properties, their demolition and the construc-tion of new residential complexes (both phases that are entirely outsourced through tender contracts) and, finally, their marketing. The Group mainly addresses families who buy a home to live in, focusing its development activities, in particular, on the semi-central and semi-peripheral areas of the city of Mi-lan, whose selection - the result of careful research within a portfolio of opportunities outlined by an Is-suer's internal team - is based on the socio-economic fabric, demographics and the supply and demand relationship.

Starting at the end of 2019, the Group launched the project called "Homizy". Homizy nowadays is an innovative SME, 70.7% owned by the parent company Abitare In S.p.A., dedicated to the development of a new strategic line of business, namely the development and rental of residential properties through socalled co-living solutions, listed on the Euronext Growth Milan market, in the Professional segment. In particular, Homizy aims to offer young people, aged between 20 and 35, who relocate from their places of origin to a different city to pursue their career path or who want to fly the nest to become more independent, a living solution that guarantees efficiency in management and maintenance, innova-tive services and spaces for socialising.

Pursuant to IFRS 8, no information is provided in relation to operating segments as this is not deemed to be material.

Letter to Shareholders

Cari azionisti,

In un contesto macro-econmico ancora caratterizzato da incertezze e complessità, l'esercizio 2022 della nostra Società si chiude con risultati in linea con le aspettative, a valle di 12 mesi in cui abbiamo ulteriormente rafforzato la nostra posizione sul mercato milanese e posto le basi per continuare nel nostro percorso di crescita.

Siamo molto lieti di confermare, come prima cosa, la conclusione dei lavori su due dei nostri progetti, Milano City Village e Palazzo Naviglio, e l'avvio dei rogiti per la consegna definitiva ai nostri clienti. Con l'aggiunta della fine dei lavori di Trilogy Towers, prevista per l'inizio del 2023, nei prossimioltre 300 famiglie entreranno nella loro nuova casa, che abbiamo progettato e realizzato con cura e attenzione per soddisfare le esigenze di ciascuno di loro.

Nel corso dell'esercizio abbiamo inoltre proseguito con la commercializzazione di altri nostri progetti (ad oggi sono 12 i progetti commercializzati dalla nascita di AbitareIn), in un momento di mercato che si conferma molto positivo. Difatti, non solo la casa continua a rivestire un ruolo centrale nelle priorità delle famiglie, ma la nostra Città, Milano, conferma la sua dinamicità unica, con volumi che si attesteranno, secondo le previsioni, a circa 30.000 compravendite alla fine del 2022.

Nel mese di September abbiamo portato a termine un'altra rilevante operazione, ovvero la cessione dell'operazione di via Cadolini Ex-Plasmon a un primario operatore del mercato, Supernova, per il corrispettivo di 72 milioni di euro.

Riteniamo che la conclusione di questa operazione, oltre ad avere un importante ritorno di tipo economico e finanziario, rappresenti una dimostrazione concreta del valore della Società, evidenziando, in maniera inequivocabile, la nostra capacità di operare positivamente sul tessuto urbano, recuperando siti in stato di abbandono e trasformandoli in progetti che possono essere valorizzati con successo nelle diverse fasi di sviluppo.

Siamo inoltre molto orgogliosi di un altro importante risultato raggiunto nel corso dell'anno: nel mese di ottobre, la Società si è classificata per il secondo anno di seguito tra le prime 100 aziende italiane nell'edizione 2022 del Sustainability Award, il prestigioso premio assegnato da Kon Group e Credit Suisse, con la collaborazione scientifico istituzionale di Altis – Alta Scuola di Formazione dell'Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore e la collaborazione tecnica di RepRisk.

Guardando al futuro, oltre a rimanere sempre concentrati sul monitoraggio del contesto macroeconomico e sui suoi sviluppi, il nostro obiettivo rimane quello di proseguire nel nostro percorso di crescita continuativa e sostenibile, mantenendo un impegno concreto e di lungo termine in ambito ESG e consolidando la nostra posizione di leadership nel mercato residenziale milanese, offrendo una living experience sempre più completa e sostenibile, oltre che con la realizzazione di nuovi progetti residenziali destinati alla vendita, anche con lo sviluppo del progetto di co-living Homizy

Pipelines under development (as at the date of approval of this report)

As of today's date, the Group's development pipeline consists, net of the projects already completed and delivered, of 20 areas, for about 247,000 sqm, corresponding to about 2,680 type appartments1, located in various semi-central and semi-peripheral areas of the City of Milan.

It should be noted that the pipeline size figures are considered net of the Via Cadolini (ex-Plasmon) development, which is the subject of a preliminary sale agreement for the consideration of Euro 72 million. AbitareIn, prior to the sale, carried out significant development activities both in terms of urban planning and environmental remediation.

Of the flats in the pipeline, to date 730 type appartments1 have been sold (on a preliminary basis), for a countervalue of Euro 320 mln, with contracted advances (guaranteed by a surety policy) amounting to Euro 98 mln, and 577 flats are currently under construction1 .

Units delivered

To date, the Group has delivered 414 appartments1 (not included in the pipeline data) divided into the three projects Abitare In Poste, Abitare In Maggiolina and Olimpia Garden, for a value of Euro 133.2 mln.

The Residential in Milan

Over the past year, the Milanese residential market has continued to show strong interest, with the current potential inflationary trend providing a further boost. The first half of 2022 saw the volume of transactions register +17.5% compared to the first half of 2021, bringing to 30,000 the number of transactions expected at the end of this year. In terms of prices, the figures are also strongly positive: +8.3% year-on-year in the city, with new sales up 16.9%. In addition, the 'scarcity' effect on the product continues, in the face of very strong demand, with a consequent increase in sales prices.

Milan is also confirmed as one of the most interesting locations globally, as confirmed by the latest Global Real Estate Bubble Index released by UBS, according to which Milan represents one of the most interesting markets in which to invest.

1 No. of appartments assuming an average size of 92 sqm for the marketing of free building and 82 sqm for ERS. The number of flats actually built and of contracts signed, without prejudice to the overall square footage, may vary depending on the customisation of the cut of the units.

Founded in 2015 - bringing with it over 15 years of experience of its founding shareholders Luigi Gozzini and Marco Grillo - within just a few years AbitareIn has become the major player in the Milan residential property development market,

boasting an order book of 20 projects in the pipeline, equivalent to a total of over 2,600 apartments. Building on its unrivalled sector know-how and, above all, its highly specialised and innovative mindset, digital capabilities and specialism, the Company has developed an unprecedented business model that involves creating a completely customisable "home" product (Tailoremadehomes), that benefits from the economies of scale typical of an industrialised model.

In April 2016 AbitareIn was listed on the Euronext Growt Milan market (formerly AIM Italy market) and as of 1 March 2021 is listed on the Eunext STAR Milan segment of the Euronext Milan market. Translated with

AbitareIn completes urban regeneration projects, demolishing disused or abandoned buildings and improving the residential fabric of the city by building new Family homes with a high aspirational value and a strong visual and architectural impact.

While the know-how used in selecting the areas, designing the projects and obtaining the required authorisations is managed completely in-house and constitutes the core element of AbitareIn's uniqueness, the actual construction of the projects is contracted out to primary construction firms, thus eliminating the associated risk, thanks also to the extensive use of technology that ensures that the Company is constantly updated on the status of the sites and is able to take prompt action, if needed.

Its real estate projects have always been enormously successful, even in the years of the financial crisis. The Company has developed and fine-

tuned its product and marketing strategy through strong branding and the use of state-of-the-art marketing and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) tools.

The latest innovative project is AbitareIn's proprietary e-commerce platform for selling homes under construction. The Company will use the new platform to offer customers na extremely immersive and complete buying experience, delivered through innovative technology: the artificial intelligence of a virtual assistant available 24 hours a day, an online apartment

configurator (similar to those used in the automotive industry), the possibility of virtually visiting the showrooms thanks to virtual reality technology, the possibility of conducting meetings via videoconferencing and the digitisation of all the documentar and contractual processes.

In fact, AbitareIn's business model is unique in the Italian market, so much so that it has attracted support from leading national and international operators of primary standing, in both the real estate and financial sectors, who have joined the shareholder base and accompanied the Company along its growth path. The Group's "compartmentalised" structure and the way in which it sells its products (first we sell, then we build) makes the projects self-financing and ensures the financial soundness of the Company.

The first integrated e-commerce platform for new residential real estate

The meeting of the two visions of the founders, Luigi Gozzini and Marco Grillo, led to the birth of Abita-reIn S.p.A. and to a real upheaval of the residential development paradigm. The two developers, aware of the importance of radically changing the dynamics typical of the real estate sector, were able to bring the processes of digital and industrial innovation typical of other sectors to the residential sector.

This revolution, which began as early as 2015 when research and development activities were already central, was speeded up as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, leading to the launch of the online sales platform dedicated to an initial real estate initiative and aimed at allowing end users to virtually visit flats and purchase a home, crossing the boundaries of the physical.

Having reached this goal, following constant and substantial investments in research, the innovative AbitareIn Corporate E-Commerce Platform was launched in 2022, the first real technological solution in the world, in terms of degree of detail, user experience and all-round integration with business proces-ses, aimed at selling houses online.

In collaboration with TECMA Solutions, a Tech Company specialized in Digital Transformation for the Real Estate sector, we developed a new business model: a digital showroom with all our new projects promoted. The initiative stems from the desire to respond to the new needs of end users, who are in-creasingly oriented towards online purchasing solutions and the customization of environments.

In 2022, we therefore presented the new platform that allows users to enjoy a 360-degree shopping experience from the comfort of their own home. The technology developed makes it possible to view all AbitareIn's real estate initiatives in a single web environment, select the different housing solutions and personalize them, make an estimate, book an appointment at the physical showroom (which has also been renovated and enriched with digital hardware and software technologies) or directly on video, and buy online.

The project, on which AbitareIn and Tecma have been working for more than two years, brings the residential development sector to be multi-channel, and is the result of a partnership that stems from the shared value of innovation as a driver of transformation.

Homizy built to share

Homizy is the Group's new line of business focused on building CO-LIVING apartments for the Milan rental market.

Homizy is the residential version of the sharing economy: property, space and services are shared to create new socialising opportunities through the pervasive use of technology, ensuring the most effici-ent management and optimisation of resources.

Mission

Transforming the "home" into A SHARING EXPERIENCE to bring people together.

Making all those who choose Milan to enhance their personal and professional growth "FEEL AT HOME"

Target

Designed mainly with young professionals in mind: young people, aged 18 to 35, who relocate from their home towns for work or who want to fly the nest to become more independent.

This target, more than any other, is experimenting with a new way of working, more fluid and constantly evolving, requiring a greater level of adaptability, which marries well with housing solutions that are more dynamic, integrated with the main ser-

vices, that facilitate togetherness, sociality and interpersonal relations. Young professionals seek and choose coliving solutions not so much for economic reasons but because they are consciously looking for more services better suited to their needs, but still aren't ready to take the "big step" of buying a house.

The Homizy product

The Homizy product, so-called "build to share", will be on-trend and smart residential complexes de-signed and built specifically with co-living services in mind, aimed at providing more efficient manage-ment and maintenance, innovative services and social spaces. The product is exclusively residential - it is not classed as student accommodation or as services apartments (too specific and restrictive, as well as already more widely available on the market). The entry of the Abitare In Group in the rental market will enable it to maximise the use of know-how acquired over the years. In fact, the new buildings will mainly be developed by recovering and/or demolishing and rebuilding existing structures - in full keeping with the urban regeneration concept - and will consist of large apartments with several bedrooms, en-suite or with shared bathrooms, and shared living and kitchen areas. To a lesser extent, the projects will also include studio apartments and multiple communal areas designed for various activities, such as co-working spaces, bike labs, utility areas, leisure spaces. All Homizy buildings will feature "two level" sha-ring: the first level, within each apartment, consists in sharing communal areas (kitchen and living area) and broadband. The second level, within each building, consists in sharing the main services included to support the management of the structure and encourage social interaction.

Homizy concept

Abitare In Maggiolina RESERVED. LIGHTWEIGHT. REFINED.

Abitare In Maggiolina is the second project carried out by Abitare In, completed and delivered from 2020 onwards. 125 apartments distributed in the two buildings, Sky Tower and Maggiolina Gardens, originating from the complete regeneration of an abandoned and degraded area, which used to house the headquarters of the daily newspaper "Il Giorno".

In the Abitare In Maggiolina project, architecture and nature merge and liaise to create a unique backdrop in the heart of the Maggiolina neighbourhood, known for its natural beauty spots on the Martesana and for its orchards and splendid villas.

The icon of the project is the system of suspended white floors, of an evident formal clarity, which rise one after the other, leaving free and flexible the space between them.

Each terrace becomes a supporting structure for nature to develop. A skilful alternation of hanging parapets gives a green tone to the outdoor private areas, transforming them into authentic high-rise gardens, irresistible features, corners of paradise to enjoy the Milan skyline from.

The materials used for the external cladding and the interiors also echo the effects and the forms of nature. All glazed components, from the generous openings to the parapets, soften the bulk of the two buildings - Sky Tower and Maggiolina Gardens - making them light and contemporary.

Linking the residential development to the city, an enormous park offering a completely immersive experience: lawned and paved areas, environments where a range of shrubbery creates a natural backdrop.

Milano City Village DYNAMIC. MULTIFACETED. HARMONIUS.

The former industrial site at via Tacito was a perfect example of urban void, which has finally been given a brand new lease of life with the Milano City Village project.

The design concept takes inspiration from the square, as a centralising element, a catalyst of social interaction and an accelerator of relationships, a space placed at the centre, metaphorically and physically, of the built complex.

In keeping with the style of the typical Milanese inner courtyards, Milano City Village has its own internal space, a place where one can rediscover the essence of the human dimension.

A courtyard that is a square, a meeting place, a place of passage but also a space to relax in, in which to rediscover a sense of communion with oneself and the community.

In Milano City Village the mosaic effect of the facade features ample, deep loggias, jutting out here and there like delightful suspended terraces. The contrast between solids and voids enlivens the facades and creates a new architectural landscape: an urban scenario that was not there before, mending the tear between the consolidated historical city and the new city in expansion.

Trilogy Towers PRECIUS. SOPHISTICATED. PEACEFUL.

A residential complex of three towers with evocative names: Gold, Diamond and Platinum.

Trilogy Towers hands back a precious fragment of the city to the community in the form of a brand new residential complex, with architectural and compositional features that give renewed vitality to the local area.

The project is based at Via Gallarate, in the north-west area of Milan, which has been known as an experimental district from the early 20th century.

Once home to important industries, the area now offers enormous regeneration opportunities. It is no coincidence that the area is on axis with the City Life - Tre Torri and Portello projects, two major urbanisation initiatives that have recently transformed the face of the city of Milan.

Trilogy Towers is unique for the meticulous design of the facades, finely chiselled as if by the skilled hands of a goldsmith. Stylish metallic detailing makes the surfaces precious and iridescent. Like a jewel.

The interplay of solids and voids, the juxtaposition of different materials and the different depths of the elements convey movement and dynamism to the facade.

CONTEMPORARY. ELEGANT. INNOVATIVE .

Palazzo Naviglio steps into the Milanese panorama with a new approach to residential property design, introducing, in the historic Giambellino neighbourhood, a building with a very low environmental impact that promotes sustainability as a lifestyle in the broadest sense.

A contemporary building - two staggered structures with large loggias overlooking the city and the Naviglio canal. Light bamboo and metal slats enliven the facade, drawing sinuous profiles like branches.

Air, water, light, wood, green: the palette, in pastel tones, evokes the natural elements and narrates a deep and intimate relationship between man and nature, an expression of harmony and mutual wellbeing.

The bamboo wood covering, a material with a completely neutral ecological impact, creates a naturally warm and enveloping atmosphere.

From Nature for Nature.

Cutting-edge technology, very low emissions: from plaster that purifies the air, capturing pollutants, to the rainwater collection and organic waste management systems - expressions of a profound green philosophy.

Savona 105 FRESH. PRESTIGIOUS. ALLURING.

Savona 105 (https://abitareinspa.com/it/caseuniche/savona-105/) underlines once again Abitare In's ability to identify strategic areas of intervention for Milan. After Palazzo Naviglio in the Giambellino neighbourhood, Abitare In has moved just a short distance to one of the areas with the highest level of great cultural ferment: Tortona. With a project designed as a tribute to the stimulating process of "creative regeneration": a project that gives new life to disused and abandoned material through culture, art, design.

Immersed in a park where green rooms alternate with paved areas, the ground floor of the building accommodates multiple services, taking inspiration from hotels and the smart city concept: the former so that each resident can feel like a welcome guest every day, the latter to improve the organisation of daily activities.

The internal amenities make it easier to organise everyday activities to leave more time for passions.

A way to achieve a better quality of life.

Olimpia Garden INTIMATE. GREEN. CHARMING.

Just a short walk from the underground station, Olimpia Garden is Abitare In's new complex of 138 apartments across three buildings (two of which already built), with a large private park and a number of communal areas.

The complex consists of different types of apartments, all delivered "turnkey" including furniture packages designed specifically by Abitare In's Interior Designers to offer an efficient and stylish product.

The project is located in an urban context that is undergoing large-scale development and redevelopment, straddling the highway that will link the Olympic Village due to be built for the 2026 Winter Olympics and the new Milan Arena, Palaitalia, to be built in the Santa Giulia neighbourhood.

Porta Naviglio Grande ENERGETIC. IDENTITARIAN. THECNOLOGICAL.

Porta Naviglio Grande (https://abitareinspa.com/it/caseuniche/porta-naviglio-grande/) fits into an area that has been clamouring to be developed for a long time now, between Piazzale Ohm and Via Richard and Via Faraday.

It will be an identity-making, modern and symbolic project, involving the creation of two buildings inspired by geometric architectural design and designer ceramics, for a continuous dialogue with the neighbourhood's history - past and future.

Abitare In makes its contribution to the city once again, to create additional added value for everyone, still maintaining the style that distinguishes it from the rest of the market. Because today more than ever, everyone needs beauty.

The Porta Naviglio Grande apartments have been designed according to criteria based on sustainability, functionality, comfort and design. All the apartments have been designed to respect the environment and save energy. The A1 energy class is a guarantee of reduced energy consumption due to the heating and cooling of indoor spaces. From photovoltaic panels that convert light into electricity, to large outdoor spaces to appreciate the benefits of fresh air and the magnificent roof that turns into a roof garden where you can see an urban garden bloom. But that's not all, the project hosts several services (Smart Work – Bike Lab – Delivery Room) that simplify people's days, by meeting various daily requirements.

The Units PRATICAL. DYNAMIC. COMFORTABLE.

The Units is a residential complex overlooking Piazzale Accursio, a Milan area with a dynamic, fresh and innovative personality. The proximity of Piazza Portello and City Life offers numerous possibilities for entertainment, places of interest and catering. In fact, the area is rich in contemporary architecture, shops and sculptures to discover just as an open-air museum.

Each apartment has an external private area to enjoy the open air and be in contact with nature, while remaining in one's home space. In addition, you can enjoy an exclusive view of the panoramic Rooftop Garden which offers moments of relaxation surrounded by green tubs containing trees and shrubs.

This natural dimension converses harmoniously with innovative and high-tech materials. The combined effect of stone and wood in the structure goes perfectly with the steel and glass of the stairwell structure in a composition that allows a mix of warm and natural nuances with high-tech transparency and style, providing the exclusive 12 apartments with a unique combination of tradition and innovation.

The daily needs of residents will be met by interiors designed for maximum comfort and thanks to smart systems that help to manage home expenses, times and functions. The revolutionary home automation system, Smart LivingNow by Bticino, makes it easy to control consumption and costs. The Twix material consists of regenerated hard woods, thus with a zero impact on deforestation; the Controlled Mechanical Ventilation system among the many advantages also ensures a change of air and the filtering out of bacteria and dusts.

Lambrate Twin Palace FUTURISTIC. PRECIOUS. EXTRAORDINARY.

With a green area of 3,613 square metres and a total of 93 apartments, Lambrate Twin Palace (https://lambratetwinpalace.com/) provides space for creative regeneration within the urban context of Ventura Lambrate. It includes two buildings, Oro, overlooking Via Sbodio, and Ambra, overlooking Via Massimiano. The choice of exposure is also the result of the search for balance with nature: you can take real advantage of the natu-ral light and the most exposed façades have parapets and brise-soleils that create a comfortable and elegant filter that increases shade and privacy.

The reception area will include a tribute to the artist Giampaolo Talani, keen on themes such as travel, movement and dreams. All the apartments have an external, yet reserved area, to enjoy the open air and a unique landscape view. The energy class A1 and superior is obtained thanks to the use of environmentally friendly technical and plant solutions: the heat of the Sun is absorbed and converted into clean electricity. The aim is to bring people closer to nature, but also to art and beauty.

In addition to art, this also means talking about community: the project has a porticoed courtyard that frames a suitably equipped green oasis, with aromatic plants, shrubs and small trees, offering a perfect natural scenario for relaxing moments.

In an area characterised by the joint presence of historical places, on one side, and innovative spaces dedicated to urban regeneration, on the other, Abitare In aims to enhance this duality, taking advantage of the possibilities offered by the present while looking forward towards future opportunities.

Palazzo Sintesy ESSENTIAL. UNIQUE. YOURS.

Palazzo Sintesy (https://abitareinspa.com/it/caseuniche/palazzo-sintesy/) is the new project in the PRIME EDITION series by Abitare In that rises in Milan Lambrate, an area engaged in urban transformation thanks to innovative redevelopment projects focused on creating and preserving green areas and spaces intended for socialisation. The district has the Parco Lambro, so called because it was here that Innocenti, the manufacturer of the famous Lambretta, had its headquarters. The area is rich in both environ-mental and cultural stimuli thanks to its proximity to City Life, an area where innovation reigns, and to Ortica, a his-toric district that tells the story of Milan through great wall paintings.

The combination of simple, marked concept shapes with the pale, pure colours of the façade allows the structure to fit in perfectly with the surrounding context. The white plaster is in perfect contrast with the cladding of the base in Ceppo di Grè, a typical material used in Milan.

The apartments on the ground floor enjoy a private garden for their moments of relaxation. The balconies allow natural light to come in and embrace the rooms, lavishing a unique, warm atmosphere. There is also a condomini-um garden, completing the building. The interiors feature an all-Italian style: here visual appeal and everyday life are in perfect harmony.

The project was also designed with the aim of preserving the natural assets. In fact, there are spaces dedicated to the collection of rainwater, energy class A1, which allows residents to save on costs and an integrated air system that regulates heating and cooling in order to have optimum temperatures at all times. In addition to this many facilities, there is also a video surveillance and anti-intrusion service.

It is a project where aesthetics, safety, comfort and sustainability are in perfect harmony.

BalduccioDodici PRESTIGIOUS. SHINING. INIMITABLE.

AbitareIn's new project, BalduccioDodici (https://abitareinspa.com/it/caseuniche/balducciododici/), is located in via Balduccio da Pisa 12, on the corner with via Orobia and fits harmoniously into the surrounding context, thanks to the structure of the facade, composed of vertical tensions that create a blend of solids and voids offering constant contact with the open air. More traditional colours such as white and grey, as well as a warm sandy hue, add elegance to the whole complex.

The elegant loggias overlooking the Milan skyline are welcoming and designed to evolve into a space that can bring the city and nature together. There is also a private condominium garden where you can enjoy the scents of vegetation with all its shades of colour and take a rest: a corner to relax and socialize. In addition, the bike lab services, delivery lockers and multi-purpose hall will help you organise your routine more easily and with peace of mind.

The apartments have been meticulously designed to brighten your daily life with natural light and offer you comfort and safety. Indeed, the high-quality materials combine with state-of-the-art technologies that allow controlled and reduced consumption thanks to the controlled mechanical ventilation system: the A1 energy category is thus a result of environmentally friendly technical and plant solutions. In addition, the video surveillance and anti-intruder system is equipped with highdefinition cameras that guarantee maximum security.

The project fits into one of the city's most lively and innovative areas: the Fondazione Prada district, adjacent to Porta Romana, another iconic area of Milan. This area is full of cultural, artistic and even commercial places of interest, well served by public transport and within walking distance of the centre. An eclectic neighbourhood characterised by a series of buildings from different historical periods and where different spirits coexist: a quieter one typical of a residential area and one full of energy that is closely associated with the spaces dedicated to fashion and social life.

1 In the financial year ended 30 September 2022, adjusted upwards for costs (amounting to Euro 1,734 thousand) arising from the application of ifrs2 in relation to the assignment of Stock Grants and upwards for construction costs on upcoming construction sites. In the financial year as at 30 September 2021, adjusted upward by costs (amounting to Euro 547 thousand) arising from the translisting of the Company's shares on the MTA market, STAR segment, and notional costs (amounting to Euro 2,379 thousand) arising from the application of ifrs2 in respect of the Stock Grant assignment.

2 In the financial year ended 30 September 2022, adjusted for the increase in costs (amounting to Euro 1,734 thousand) arising from the application of ifrs2 in respect of the Stock Grant assignment and for the increase in construction costs on upcoming construction sites and for the increase in income from the IPO of the subsidiary Homizy S.p.A. In the financial year ended 30 September 2021, adjusted upward by costs (amounting to Euro 547 thousand) arising from the translisting of the Company's shares on the MTA market, STAR segment, and notional costs (amounting to Euro 2,379 thousand) arising from the application of ifrs2 in connection with the Stock Grant assignment.

The financial year ended 30 September 2022 saw CONSOLIDATED REVENUES of Euro 122.2 million, resulting from:

79.7 million, net of the inventory unloading related to the completion of work and the subsequent

  • (i) revenues from sales in the amount of Euro 20.6 mln (Euro 50.4 mln as at 30.09.2021), arising from the deeds of real estate units delivered to customers during the financial year;
  • (ii) change in inventories due to the progress of work on real estate initiatives, in the amount of Euro deliveries of completed projects to customers. and NoLo
  • (iii) change in inventories for the purchase of new areas, amounting to Euro 16.9 million (Euro 49.7 million as of 30.09.2021);
  • (iv) other revenues from ordinary operations in the amount of Euro 4.9 million (Euro 4 million as at 30.09.2021), mainly arising from activities carried out by the subsidiaries of Homizy S.p.A.

Production progress amounted to Euro 96.6 million (Euro 48.3 million as at 30.09.2021). Completed the co-construction works on the sites of Milano City Village (first building) and Palazzo Naviglio. Continuation of works on the Trilogy Towers and Porta Naviglio Grande sites, and preliminary works for the co-construction of Lambrate Twin Palace, BalduccioDodici, Savona105, Cadolini ex-Plasmon

CONSOLIDATED EBT ADJ amounted to Euro 11.2 mln (Euro 16.7 mln as at 30.09.2021), influenced by the following items:

• Adjustment downwards by Euro 5.6 million, which had already been fully implemented with the approval of the first quarter figures, due to the increase in construction costs on construction sites soon to be delivered, following the definition of agreements with the contractors of these sites aimed at supporting the production chain and guaranteeing customers the delivery of a quality product with-

out further delays.

In this regard, it should be noted that the overall marginality is affected by the increase in construction costs that occurred last year, which, on the 5 projects marketed prior to the occurrence of this increase, amounted to a total of approximately Euro 21 million. On these five projects, the inclusion of the so-called "price adjustment clause" was not envisaged, which allows the sale price of the flats already subject to the preliminary contract to be changed on the basis of the construction cost index issued by ISTAT, introduced, on the contrary, in all subsequent commercialisations.

• Euro 1.7 million of notional costs arising from the application of IFRS 2 in connection with the share

of Stock Grants established in favour of management.

The consolidated EBT also does not include Euro 5.9 million of the proceeds from the IPO of the subsidiary Homizy, which were recognised directly in equity, without going through the income statement (a different accounting treatment of the item was envisaged with respect to what was disclosed with the approval of the interim report for the year ended 31 December 2021, where it was in any case expressly specified). The different accounting method does not affect group equity.

Therefore, the CONSOLIDATED EBT ADJ, including the aforementioned income and net of the decreasing items mentioned above, amounts to € 24.4 mln.

Financial debt as of 30 September 2022 amounted to Euro 116.2 million, compared to Euro 75.1 million as of 30 September 2021. The change is positively influenced by the proceeds from the deeds of sale of the real estate units delivered during the reporting period (net of the deposits and down-payments collected in previous years), amounting to Euro 12.7 million, by the deposits and down-payments collected relating to the preliminary of the projects marketed as well as the deposit related to the preliminary of sale of Milano Progetti, for a total amount of Euro 26.3 million and by the capital increases of Abitare In S. p.A. and the con-trolled Homizy S.p.A. in the amount of Euro 13.2 million (net of the costs incurred for the capital increase). Indebtedness is also affected on the increase by the progress of construction sites, with total investments of Euro 77.5 mln, and by the purchase of new areas for Euro 15.8 mln (net of advance payments made in previous years).

Description of the main risks and uncertainties to which the Group is exposed

In the pursuit of its business activity, the Group is exposed to risks and uncertainties, caused by external factors linked to the macroeconomic scenario at overall level and specific to its own sector, and to risks linked to management choices and the strategies adopted.

These risks are identified and mitigated on a systematic basis so as to allow the timely monitoring and control of such risks.

Risks related to the spread of the Covid-19 epidemic

The persistence of the SARS-CoV-2 respiratory syndrome epidemic and the related COVID-19 disease has had and may continue to have a material adverse impact on the operations and results of the Group and the entire market in which it operates. However, the diffusion of COVID-19 or other contagious diseases is beyond the Group's control and therefore there can be no assurance that the Group will be able to counteract its effects or impact on its operations and results in the future. In the period between February and May 2020, the Group was exposed to restrictive measures, such as, for example, the temporary closure of construction sites commissioned by the Group, and is also exposed in the future to the risk arising from the adoption by the public authorities of additional and new measures to prevent and/or limit the spread of the Coronavirus and from the operational and economic consequences arising from the adoption of such measures.

The occurrence of the events that are the subject of these risks could have a material adverse effect on the Group's financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Due to the rapid spread of the Coronavirus, the Italian Government has adopted and may adopt restrictive measures in the future to contain the further spread of the pandemic, the most relevant of which have involved restrictions and controls on the movement of people, the prohibition of gatherings and the closure of production plants, offices and construction sites.

The current epidemiological situation could also have serious economic, patrimonial and financial effects on the contractors identified by AbitareIn for the execution of the various Real Estate Initiatives. Should the contractors, due to situations of economic instability, no longer be able to meet the commitments, under the terms, economic conditions and modalities agreed with Abitare In, or be subject to bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, Abitare In would find itself in the position of having to replace them with other entities, with the consequent increased time and costs in the completion of the Real Estate Initiatives underway.

As at the date of this report, it is not possible to exclude the possibility that new waves of COVID-19 contagions may occur, such as to oblige government authorities to once again impose restrictive measures aimed at containing the further spread of the virus and, therefore, it is not possible to foresee the further negative effects that the continuation of the pandemic will determine, not only on the Group's business, but also on the financial markets and on economic activities at a domestic level.

Risks related to the development of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict

The evolution of the Russian-Ukrainian crisis may have a negative impact on the Group's operations and results, mainly due to the increase in energy and raw material costs and difficulties in the procurement of materials.

In fact, the 2022 financial year was strongly characterised by the conflict, which had consequences both in terms of economic sanctions applied to Russia, and in terms of price increases, particularly in the energy, production and logistics sectors, which also had repercussions in terms of increased interest rates and which, in general, are causing an economic situation of significant uncertainty.

The Group has no direct exposure and/or business activities to the markets affected by the conflict and/or sanctioned entities. On the other hand, it may be affected both by the increase in energy costs (and raw materials in general), which are constantly monitored in order to minimise their impact, and by uncertainties concerning the timing of supplies.

Risks Related to the Company and Group's Business

The Company's and the Group's results could be negatively affected by possible delays in the completion of projects caused mainly by the not always certain timing for the issue of authorisations and permits by the Public Administration. Moreover, considering the fact that the execution of the works is entrusted to third party companies, the projects may be affected by unbudgeted costs attributable to exogenous factors not foreseen at an early stage of the works.

Risks connected to the Group's financial debt

The Group's business is, as a whole, a capital-intensive activity which, during the initial phases of a real estate project requires the Group to commit all the financial resources necessary for its development, and which, except for the advances paid, with the preliminary purchase contracts, by customers that, on average, represent 30% of the purchase price of the real estate unit, leads to the collection of the residual amounts from buyers, only at the end of the entire construction and marketing process of the real estate project. The Group's financial indebtedness generally derives, therefore, from obtaining real estate mortgage loans granted in instalments based on work progress reports (which are guaranteed by mortgages on the properties themselves), from the collection of the sums received from promissory buyers as a deposit and advance on the purchase price (based on the provisions of the preliminary purchase and sale contracts) and from the payment terms negotiated with the Group's suppliers. It should be noted that some of the agreements relating to the financial debt of the Company and Group include, among other things, financial covenants, compliance with change of control clauses and/or other provisions that involve limits on the use of resources or the distribution of dividends by the contracting parties (in particular in contracts signed by the operating special purpose vehicles). Some loan agreements entered into by the Issuer or other Group companies include Internal Cross-Default clauses according to which in the event of non-fulfilment of credit, financial and guarantee obligations, or activation of the acceleration clause, termination or withdrawal due to an act attributable exclusively to the contracting beneficiary in relation to any loan agreement entered into, the bank has the right to withdraw or terminate the loan agreement.

Failure to comply with any of the provisions or restrictions provided for in the Group's loan agreements could therefore result in an event of default resulting in the lender's right to declare, in relation to the financed company, all amounts lent as immediately due and payable (together with accrued and unpaid interest) and to revoke any commitments to grant further loans, with consequent substantial negative effects on the Group's business, financial position and results of operations or prospects. The Group's ability to meet its debt depends on operating results and the ability to generate sufficient liquidity, factors that may depend on circumstances that may not be foreseeable by the Group. Should these

circumstances occur, the Group may be in a position, in the future, of not being able to meet its debt, or carry out the investments undertaken, with possible negative effects on the financial position, earnings and cash flows of the Issuer and the Group.

Risks connected to the Group's operations

The Abitare In Format, which includes the search for building plots, verifying, managing and obtaining the necessary permits, the purchase and sale of the site, the design phase of the properties to be built, as well as the subsequent marketing and sale phase of the housing units, is spread over a medium/long term period (not less than 4 years). In consideration of the configuration of this business model, it is possible that, at the end of the accounting period of any given year, none of the operating special purpose vehicles, prepared according to the national accounting standards issued by the Italian Accounting Body (OIC), achieve revenues deriving from the sale of properties and therefore there are no distributable profits in favour of the parent company.

In light of the above, it is therefore possible that the forecasts regarding profitability and/or implementation times are not in line with the timing and objectives envisaged by the Company, with a negative impact on the Group's business and damage to the Group's financial position, earnings and cash flows.

Risks related to real estate market trends

The real estate market has a cyclical trend and is affected by a number of variables, such as the general state of the economy, interest rate changes, inflation trends, tax regulations and liquidity in the market. In the euro area, output growth continues at a moderate but gradually consolidating pace, driven by domestic demand components. Uncertainty about developments in the world economy, partly conditioned by geopolitical tensions, is the greatest risk factor for economic activity.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk refers to the failure to obtain adequate financial means necessary for the company's operations, as well as for the development of operating activities.

The two main factors that determine the liquidity situation are, on the one hand, the resources generated or absorbed by operating and investment activities, and on the other, the maturity and renewal characteristics of the debt or liquidity of financial investments and market conditions.

The financial resources that the Group has obtained through listing on the Euronext Growth Milan market (formerly AIM Italia/ Mercato Alternativo del Capitale) and subsequently on the Euronext STAR Milan market, together with those generated by corporate activity, especially of the investee companies, may not be able to guarantee the exact execution of corporate operations and the implementation of planned investments.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the exposure to potential losses arising from a trade counterparty defaulting on its obligations. The credit risk is marginal in the Group's main sector.

Market risk

Like any company in any sector, the companies of the AbitareIn Group face the challenge of competition in their market, which might cause their market share, and consequently their turnover, to fall. For this reason, the management of AbitareIn S.p.a., and of each investee company, is committed to seeking and identifying investment opportunities and implementing increasingly advanced marketing and professional development initiatives that can help the Group grow and become one of the leading players in its market.

Risks linked to obtaining administrative permits

The construction of properties on sites (better, on the areas where the buildings to be demolished and rebuilt are located) acquired by the individual operating special purpose vehicles is subject to obtaining and retaining the relevant administrative permits.

In this context, although the sites selected by AbitareIn are all in built-up areas where buildings have been completed in full compliance with authorisations issued previously, there is a structural risk of delays in the Public Administration's issuance of the appropriate authorisations to build real estate complexes (building permission, land rehabilitation certificates, landscape protection opinion...).

To reduce this risk, the Company requires, market conditions permitting, that the purchase of the sites is subject to obtaining the required building permission or at least a prior opinion. In the current scenario of increased competition and continuous rises in the prices of sites, most purchases occur before such permissions are obtained.

Given that delays have become almost systematic in the whole of the real estate sector, especially in the residential segment, the Company takes this into account in the early stages of planning in order to minimise the associated impacts as far as possible:

  • Delays up to 6/9 months (depending on the project): these are considered in the budget and in the planning process, as well as in contractual obligations towards customers. No review of the project's business plan is necessary.
  • Delays between 6/9 months and 18 months: these inevitably produce a slight increase in financial expenses and overheads, but to a negligible extent. If the delay becomes known after the real estate units have been marketed, there will also be an increase in costs due to contractual penalties payable to customers, which on average amount to 5% per year on the down payments and deposits paid, with a 0.12% per month impact on revenue. There is also the risk that the customer may take action to terminate the contract. Although no contract has been terminated to date, the situation would be manageable considering the systematic overbooking of the projects and the possibility to quickly replace the buyer (increasing also the purchase price).

However, such delays do have an impact on relationships with customers and on the Company's reputation. To reduce this impact, Abitare In has invested in creating an efficient and permanent Customer Care structure and in a CRM platform (Salesforce) in order to quickly deal with any issues that may arise.

Moreover, in terms of economic planning, AbitareIn is able to manage the different timing of the authorisation procedures thanks to the size of its pipeline: 23 different projects, the start of which can be opportunistically and dynamically postponed or brought forward to accommodate new requirements. Again with reference to obtaining authorisations, the following risks are highlighted:

  • Risk of changes to the layout of the floor areas and morphological restrictions affecting the real estate complex being built, which may reduce the project's commercial appeal and, consequently, the profit margin;
  • For projects that involve a change in use or in the case of amendments to the town planning regulations, the risk of having to change, and even reduce, the surface area that is convertible into residential floor area. However, the current situation is actually the opposite, with regulations allowing the benefit of volume increases for residential pro-jects, up to 20% for certain types of property (Lombardy Regional Law No. 18/2019).

In conclusion, it should be noted that the Company has invested heavily in managing in-house those core resources and functions that deal with studying and selecting the best opportunities (both from an economic viewpoint and in terms of the associated authorisation process).

Risks linked to the construction of real estate complexes

AbitareIn does not build the real estate developments directly. Construction work is contracted out to outside construction firms that are not part of its structure.

Works are entrusted, under contracts, to reliable operators of primary standing which are already active in the Milanese market. To minimise the associated construction risks, the contracts provide for a number of safeguards to protect the contracting entity, including significant penalties for delays in the works, payments deferred up to 120 days, bank guarantees and 10% withholdings to guarantee the proper performance of the works, released after 6 to 24 months.

In addition, property construction (especially residential property) represents a commodity in the market and operators can therefore be easily replaced in the case of need. Moreover, thanks to the extensive use of technology by Abitare In in all stages of the project, from the design to the construction of the properties, and thanks above all to the use and implementation of the BIM (Building Information Modeling) system, the Company is able to verify the progress of works at each site at any given time and promptly manage any problems that may arise.

Furthermore, with a view to strengthening the entire production process and reducing implementation timing and costs, also improving the quality and versatility of the AbitareIn product, the Company is implementing an ambitious long-term project aimed at consolidating relations with construction firms, as well as with all other key suppliers of strategic importance, by signing long-term commercial agreements with them. The key elements of these agreements include:

  • Supply volumes,
  • Continuity,
  • Common language, in terms of technology platforms,
  • Standardisation of technical solutions,
  • Joint development of new products,
  • Payment quality: guaranteed payments within appropriate time frames.

To date, framework agreements have been entered into with several strategic partners such as Impresa Percassi, Sciuker Frames, Corazzin, Marazzi, Porcelanosa, Florim, Zucchetti, Ideal Standard, Samsung, Bticino.

Main activities and events during the period of the Group and result for the year of Abitare In S.p.A.

On 22 October 2021, the Company successfully closed the Accelerated Bookbuilding procedure reserved for subscription by foreign investors only, with a raising of Euro 4 mln and the issue of 595,432 ordinary shares. Thanks to the transaction, AbitareIn's shareholding structure saw the entry of important international operators.

On 17 December 2021, Borsa Italiana arranged for the listing of the ordinary shares of the subsidiary Homizy S.p.A. on the Euronext Growth Milan Market - Professional Segment, with trading commencing on 21 December 2021.

Homizy successfully closed the placement preparatory to the listing, for a total consideration of Euro 10 mln, corresponding to 1,860,000 newly issued shares at a subscription price of Euro 5.4 per share, with a premoney capitalisation of Euro 45 mln.

Furthermore, during the year, deliveries and deeds of the flats of the Olimpia Garden project continued: the first project of the Prime Edition line, a real estate complex of 160 apartaments in the Corvetto area of Milan. At today's date, 158 real estate units have been notarised. During the reporting period, the Group also continued the commercial campaigns of 4 new residential projects, Lambrate Twin Palace, Palazzo Sintesy, The Units and BalduccioDodici, bringing to 12 the number of projects marketed since the start of operations. The commercialisations were carried out using the microcampaign methodology, with the provision, therefore, of a reduced number of appartments for each microcampaign. The sales activities have confirmed the positive trend of the Milanese residential market, which continues to be strongly attractive: the projects marketed have reached the set sales targets, in some cases with requests even exceeding the available offer. During the period, AbitareIn also continued its activities on the operating sites, reaching the conclusion (in the period immediately following) of the works on the projects of Palazzo Naviglio and Milano City Village (first building), as well as the development and valorisation activities preparatory to obtaining the authorisations on the areas forming part of the Pipeline and their marketing.

At the beginning of June, the Sustainability Report for the year 2021 was also published, AbitareIn's second report dedicated to illustrating its approach to ESG issues. In the third quarter of the financial year, the Group also completed a new and innovative project in the digital field: the creation of a Corporate E-Commerce Platform, the first real technological solution at global level for the sale of houses online, a single digital showroom for all AbitareIn projects. The new platform now allows the customer to experience an innovative and engaging buying epserience, thanks to the development of a dedicated technology that allows the customer to view all of the developer's real estate initiatives in a single we environment, select the different housing proposals, make an estimate, book an appointment and purchase the home directly online. On 19 September 2022, the Board of Directors approved the establishment of the Audit, Risk Management and Sustainability Committee.

Finally, on 22 September 2022, the Group signed a preliminary agreement for the sale of the development operation in Via Cadolini in Milan (formerly Plasmon), for the consideration of Euro 72 million.

The annual financial statements of the Company closed with an operating loss of Euro 1.2 million compared to an operating loss of Euro 2.1 million in the previous year. It should be noted that the operating result includes costs related to the stock grant plan of Euro 1.7 million (Euro 2.4 million as at 30 September 2021). EBIT was positive and amounted to Euro 7.8 million (Euro 6.5 million as of 30 September 2021).

Net profit amounted to Euro 7.7 million (Euro 6.7 million as of 30 September 2021).

In terms of equity, net assets amounted to EUR 61.8 million, compared to Euro 48.2 million in the previous year. The change is attributable to the result for the year of Euro 7.7 million and the recognition of the stock grant reserve of Euro 1.7 million.

Net financial debt as of 30 September 2022 was Euro 8.8 million compared to Euro 23.2 million as of 30 September 2021. Net financial indebtedness improved mainly due to the increase in cash and cash equivalents of Euro 3,867,000 and to the recognition of loans due within 12 months to the subsidiaries Milano City Village S.r.l., Trilogy Towers S.r.l., Palazzo Naviglio S.r.l. Abitare In Development 7 S.r.l. and for an amount of Euro 6,729 thousand, Euro 2,154 thousand, Euro 1,356 thousand and Euro 429 thousand, respectively.

Events after 30 September 2022

Following the end of the financial year, the Group submitted the declarations of completion and fitness for occupancy for the Palazzo Naviglio and Milano City Village (first building) projects, and the deeds were started with the customers for the final delivery of the real estate units. More than 200 apartaments will be delivered over the next few months.

In October, the Company was ranked among the top 100 Italian companies in the 2022 edition of the Sustainability Award, the prestigious prize assigned by Kon Group and Credit Suisse, with the institutional scientific collaboration of Altis - Alta Scuola di Formazione dell'Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore and the technical collaboration of RepRisk.

Foreseeable development of management

In the first few months of the current financial year, AbitareIn will continue with the sales of the real estate units of Palazzo Naviglio and Milano City Village, to which will be added, starting in the second quarter (calendar) of 2023, the sales of the real estate units of the Trilogy Towers project (the progress of which is ahead of schedule): this involves, in total, more than 430 appartments divided among the three projects, for a total value of approximately Euro 180 million which, net of deposits and down payments already paid by clients, will generate total proceeds of approximately Euro 129 million. In this regard, the completion of these three projects will result in the full repayment of the bank debt held by the vehicles owning the transactions, Euro 57.4 mln as of the closing date of the 2022 financial year (currently Euro 62.6 mln).

It should also be noted that the sale of the via Cadolini former Plasmon operation will be finalised during the year, following the obtainment of the land reclamation certificate, for the consideration of Euro 72 million.

The operation is currently encumbered by a debt of Euro 15 million, consisting of a bank loan used for the activities carried out on the area.

In the current financial year, AbitareIn will also continue its development activities, both for the continuation of (and the start-up of) new construction activities, and for the obtainment of authorisations, also devoting itself to the constant scouting of new areas, for the consolidation of its leadership position in the city of Milan.

Intragroup and related-party transactions

As required by the Consob Issuers' Regulation, the company has adopted a 'Procedure for Transactions with Related Parties', see www.abitareinspa.com section 'Investor' for further information. The transactions carried out by Abitare In and the companies included in the consolidation area with other related parties are part of ordinary operations and are regulated at market conditions. Information on related party transactions, including those required by the CONSOB Communication of 28 July 2006, is presented in Note 24 to the consolidated financial statements as at 30 September 2022.

Research and development activities

During the year, work continued on the development and integration of the Abitare In corporate E-Commerce platform, fully integrated with all corporate processes, aimed at the sale of houses on-line and the development and integration of an on-line appartment configurator. These costs mainly relate to costs for services rendered by third parties. The development costs incurred by the Group relate to projects that meet the requirements of IAS 38.

The total investment incurred in the reporting period amounted to Euro 715 thousand.

Overview of the main existing litigations

The Company, based on the opinions of legal advisors, has not allocated specific risk provisions in the balance sheet to cover any liabilities arising from the proceedings described below.

Italian Revenue Agency request

For contracts for consideration transferring or constituting rights in rem, the taxable base on which to measure the registration tax due is the "value of the property or right at the date of the deed" (Art. 43 of Presidential Decree 131/86); as value, pursuant to Art. 51 paragraph 1 of Presidential Decree 131/86 "the value, subject to the provisions of the following paragraphs, is that declared by the parties in the deed and, in the absence thereof or if higher, the consideration agreed upon for the entire duration of the contract"; Article 51 paragraph 2 of Presidential Decree 131/86 specifies that, "for deeds having as their object immovable property or rights in rem in immovable property and for those having as their object businesses or rights in rem over them, the value is understood to be the market value. This implies that at the time of registration of the deed, in the absence of separate indication of the value of the property and the agreed consideration, the tax is paid on the latter. Subsequently, the Revenue Agency, in the manner provided for by Article 51, paragraph 4, verifies that the consideration indicated in the deed actually reflects the market value in common trade of the complex asset transferred.

On 30 January 2019, Milano City Village received a request (questionnaire no. Q00022/2019) from the Agenzia delle Entrate to provide supplementary documentation with reference to the deed of sale of the real estate complex located in Milan, via Tacito no. 14, in order to verify that the consideration indicated in the deed actually reflects the market value in common trade of the complex asset transferred. The Company therefore provided the tax authority with the requested documentation.

Subsequently, on 24 September 2020, Milano City Village received (as part of the same proceeding established following the receipt of the aforementioned questionnaire) from the Agenzia delle Entrate an invitation to cross-examination No. I00052/2020; following the receipt of such invitation, the cross-examination with the Tax Authority was duly initiated. On 6 November 2020, following the meeting held on 20 October 2020, the Company sent to the Taxation Body an expert's report on the characteristics of the reclamation and environmental clean-up work carried out on the area in question in order to corroborate the correctness of the purchase price of the same area. On 11 February 2022, Milano City Village filed a petition for assessment with adhesion. During the discussion held with the tax authority on 4 May 2022, the amount of the higher taxes, interest and penalties was defined for a total amount of Euro 137 thousand. The amount agreed in the aforementioned deed of adhesion was recognised in the annual financial report as of 30 September 2022.

Procedure with the Municipality of Milan

By notices of assessment notified to Abitare In Maggiolina, on 6 November 2020, the Municipality of Milan ascertained a higher Municipal Property Tax (IMU) for the years 2016, 2017 and 2018, respectively amounting to Euro 59,389.54, Euro 2,620.19 and Euro 2,620, plus penalties and interest, for a total amount of Euro 86,125.16.

The notices of assessment arise from the failure of the Municipality of Milan to acknowledge the cadastral changes and values communicated by the company in relation to the building area located in Milan, Via Angelo Fava no. 20.

In the event of losing such dispute, Abitare In Maggiolina could be obliged to pay an amount of approximately Euro 86,125.00. The Issuer considers the payment of such amount as a remote charge.

Other information

Adoption of the legislative simplification process adopted with CONSOB Resolution No. 18079 of 20 January 2012

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure 2022

Introduction

This Report, approved by the Company's Board of Directors on 13 December 2022, aims to illustrate the corporate governance system adopted by Abitare In and divided into a series of principles, rules and procedures in line with the criteria contained in the Corporate Governance Code, which the Company resolved to adopt on 13 January 2021, with the additions and adjustments resulting from the characteristics of the Company indicated in this Report.

1. Issuer's profile

Profile

Established in 2015, Abitare In specialises in implementing, through wholly owned special purpose vehicles, urban redevelopment projects involving the purchase of disused or abandoned properties, their demolition and the building of new residential complexes and, finally, their marketing. The Issuer mainly addresses families and individuals already resident in the area where the building project is being implemented, focusing its development activities, in particular, on the semi-central areas of the city of Milan.

From being originally listed in 2016 on the AIM Italia market (now Euronext Growth Milan) of Borsa Italiana, the Company moved in March 2021 to its current listing on the Euronext Milan market (formerly Mercato Telematico Azionario) of Borsa Italiana as a Euronext STAR Milan issuer.

The Group pursues a sustainable development model, contributing, as a priority objective, to the economic growth of the context in which it operates, but also to improving the quality of the surrounding environment, from an environmental and social point of view.

To this end, the Group has adopted principles of sustainability, transparency and quality in the conduct of its business, including by making concrete commitments to people, the territory and the environment, adopting an integrated management system that enables it to comply with applicable requirements and achieve the best results in the sector.

The Issuer also actively pursues the sustainability of its business activities and, to this end, publishes an annual sustainability report.

Corporate Governance System

The corporate governance structure adopted by the Company is based on the traditional organisational management and control model and therefore consists of the following corporate bodies:

a) the Shareholders' Meeting which is eligible to pass resolutions in ordinary and extraordinary session

b) the Board of Directors vested with all the powers of ordinary and extraordinary administration, except

  • on the matters reserved to it by law or by the Articles of Association;
  • as expressly provided for by the law and the Articles of Association;
  • its effective operation.

c) the Board of Statutory Auditors, called upon to monitor compliance with the law and the Articles of Association and compliance with the principles of correct management and, in particular, the adequacy of the organisational, administrative and accounting structure adopted by the Company and

The statutory auditing of the accounts is entrusted, in accordance with the applicable legal provisions, to an independent firm of auditors listed in the special register kept by Consob.

A Supervisory Body has also been appointed pursuant to Decree 231, which monitors the proper functioning of the Company's 231 Model and is responsible for updating it. On 28 December 2016, the Company, by resolution of the Board of Directors, also adopted a code of ethics, shared by all Abitare In Group companies, which is an integral part of Model 231 (the "Code of Ethics").

The Board of Directors has set up an internal Remuneration Committee, consisting of three independent directors and, on 19 September 2022, a Control and Risk and Sustainability Committee.

The following matters are also reserved for the Board of Directors, in accordance with the provisions in the Corporate Governance Code:

The management control and reporting system described in the memorandum and adopted by the Company and the main Group companies is aimed at allowing the system managers to obtain periodically and promptly a sufficiently comprehensive picture of the economic and financial situation of the Company and its subsidiaries.

On a monthly basis, the Board of Directors assesses the general performance of operations, taking into account, in particular, the information received from the delegated bodies, and also periodically comparing the results achieved with those planned. As part of this assessment, the Board did not deem it necessary to establish, at a formal level, general criteria for identifying transactions that have a significant strategic, economic, asset-based or financial impact for the Issuer, since it is the Company's practice to consider as such, in addition to those transactions that, due to their value, do not fall within the limits of the powers attributed to managing directors, also those other transactions which, even though their value falls within the limits of the powers attributed to managing directors, assume strategic importance in commercial, industrial or financial terms, for the purposes of the Company's business.

The Board of Directors has also:

• established a Remuneration Committee consisting of Board members (see paragraph 8 of this Report) and a Risk Control and Sustainability Committee (see paragraph 9.2 of this Report).

Pursuant to Art. 18 of the Articles of Association, the company is managed by a Board of Directors consisting of no less than five and no more than nine members.

The members of the Board of Directors must meet the requirements of eligibility, professionalism and integrity required by law or any other requirement under the applicable regulations.

A minimum number of members of the Board of Directors, corresponding to the minimum number required by the regulations in force from time to time, shall meet the independence requirements provided for by law.

The Articles of Association do not provide for additional independence requirements for directors over and above those set out in Art. 148, paragraph 3, of the Consolidated Law on Finance; since the Company has adopted the Corporate Governance Code, the Board of Directors verifies that the independence requirements are met also pursuant to the Corporate Governance Code and, during the appointment of the management body by the Shareholders' Meeting, it invites the candidates for the office of Director included in the lists to also declare that they meet the requirements, as adopted by the Company.

The appointment and replacement of directors is governed by Article 21 of the Articles of Association, which establishes the following.

The directors remain in office for the period fixed by the Shareholders' Meeting resolution of appointment, up to a maximum of three financial years and may be re-elected.

The directors are appointed on the basis of lists of candidates submitted by the shareholders and, in any case, in compliance with the provisions of law and the Articles of Association concerning gender balance and the appointment of directors that meet the independence requirements. Candidates must be listed in the lists with numbers in sequential order. The lists submitted by shareholders, signed by the shareholder or shareholders who submit them (also by proxy to one of them), must contain a number of candidates not exceeding nine and must be filed at the Company's registered office within the deadlines provided for by the laws and regulations in force from time to time, as indicated in the notice of call or by means of remote communication as indicated in the notice of call, and made available to the public within the terms and in the manner provided for by the laws or regulations in force from time to time.

For the period of application of the laws and regulations in force from time to time regarding gender equality, each list which has a number of candidates equal to or greater than three, must also include candidates belonging to both genders, at least in the minimum proportion required by the law and regulations in force from time to time, as specified in the Shareholders' Meeting notice of call.

Together and simultaneously with each list, CVs containing the personal and professional characteristics of the individual candidates must be filed, indicating where appropriate their suitability to qualify as independent directors, together with the declarations whereby the individual candidates accept their candidacy and certify, under their own responsibility, that there are no grounds for incompatibility or ineligibility, as well as the existence of the requirements prescribed by the Articles of Association and applicable legal and regulatory provisions. Each list must also contain, as an attachment, an indication of the identity of the shareholders who submitted the lists and their overall percentage shareholding held, as well as any other additional or different declaration, disclosure and/or document required by the law and the applicable regulations.

A shareholder may not submit and may not exercise his/her voting rights for more than one list, even by proxy or through trust companies.

The following may submit a list for the appointment of directors: (i) shareholders who, at the time of submitting a list, hold, individually or jointly, a number of shares at least equal to the share determined by Consob pursuant to the applicable legal and regulatory provisions (as at the Date of the Report, this share with reference to the Company is equal to 4.5% of the share capital as reported by Consob Resolution no. 51 of 14 October 2021) and (ii) the Board of Directors. The holding of the minimum stake envisaged under (i) is determined having regard to the shares that are registered in favour of the shareholder on the day on which the list is filed with the Company, without prejudice to the fact that the related certification may also be produced after the list is filed, provided it is within the deadline set for the publication of the list.

The shareholders that are different from those who hold, even jointly, a controlling or relative majority interest, must also submit a declaration certifying the absence of any connections with the latter as envisaged by law.

Any list submitted by the Board of Directors must (i) be filed and made public, according to the procedures provided for by the regulations applicable from time to time to the lists submitted by shareholders, no later than thirty days prior to the date of the Shareholders' Meeting with first or single call, without prejudice to the deadlines established by law for filing with regard to calls subsequent to the first, and must be made available to the public in accordance with the legal provisions in force at the time for the lists of shareholders, and (ii) satisfy, mutatis mutandis, the requirements established for the submission of lists by shareholders.

No shareholder, as well as shareholders belonging to the same corporate group and shareholders adhering to a significant shareholders' agreement pursuant to Art. 122 of the Consolidated Law on Finance, may submit or contribute to the submission of more than one list, not even by proxy or through a trust company, or vote for different lists. Each person entitled to vote may only vote for one list. The vote of each shareholder will concern the list and therefore all the candidates indicated therein, with no possibility of changes or exclusions. Any votes cast in breach of this prohibition will not be attributed to any list.

Any lists submitted without complying with the above provisions shall be considered as not submitted.

The elections of directors shall take place in accordance with the following provisions:

number of members to be elected less one shall be taken from the list that obtained the highest

b) one director shall be taken from the list that obtained the second highest number of votes and that has no connections, even indirectly, with the shareholders who submitted or with those who voted for the Majority List (the "Minority List"); this director shall be the candidate indicated with the first

  • prevail;
  • e) if, according to the procedures indicated above, the provisions on independence requirements by the Shareholders' Meeting, through prior submission of candidates who meet the independence requirements;

Finally, if this procedure does not ensure the presence of the necessary number of directors who meet the independence requirements, the elected candidate will be substituted by a majority resolution passed

above are not met, the candidates of the most represented gender elected as the last in sequential order from the Majority List shall be replaced with the first unelected candidates, drawn from the procedure, in order to ensure compliance with the provisions established above on gender distribution, the missing directors shall be elected by the Shareholders' Meeting according to the ordi-

If a single list is submitted, the Board of Directors shall be drawn in full from it, if it obtains the majority required by law for an Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting, in compliance with the provisions of law and regulations in force from time to time, and also with the provisions on gender equality established above and the provisions of law and the Articles of Association with regard to the appointment of independent directors.

If no list has been submitted or if only one list is submitted and it does not obtain the majority of votes or if the number of directors elected on the basis of the lists submitted is lower than the number of members to be appointed or if the entire Board of Directors does not need to be renewed or if it is not possible for any reason to appoint the Board of Directors according to the procedures specified in Art. 21 of the Articles of Association, the members of the Board of Directors shall be appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting according to the ordinary procedures and majorities, without applying the mechanism of voting by lists, without prejudice to the minimum number of directors who meet the independence requirements provided for by law and the compliance with the provisions on gender equality, established above.

The candidate that may have been indicated as Chairman of the Board of Directors in the list that obtained the highest number of votes or in the only list that was submitted shall be elected to that office. Failing this, the Chairman shall be appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting with the ordinary legal majorities and, if this appointment is not made by the Shareholders' Meeting when appointing the management body, he/she shall be elected by the Board of Directors from among its members.

If during the financial year one or more directors cease to hold office, provided that the majority still consists of directors appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting, the provisions in Article 2386 of theCivil Code shall apply, as indicated below:

  • a) the Board of Directors shall proceed with the replacement from among those included in the same list, to which the outgoing directors belonged, provided they meet the same requirements as those met by the directors who have ceased to hold office, and the Shareholders' Meeting passes a resolution by legal majorities, in compliance with the same criterion;
  • b) if the aforesaid list does not contain any previously unelected candidates or candidates meeting the necessary requirements, or in any case when, for any reason, it is not possible to comply with the legal and regulatory provisions in force from time to time or the provisions on gender equality established above or the provisions of the law and the Articles of Association with regard to the appointment of independent directors, the Board of Directors shall see to the replacement, and subsequently the Shareholders' Meeting shall pass a resolution, with legal majorities without voting by lists.

In any case, the Board of Directors and the Shareholders' Meeting shall appoint them in such a way as to ensure (i) the presence of independent directors according to the total minimum number required by the regulations in force from time to time and (ii) compliance with the regulations in force at the time concerning gender balance.

However, the Shareholders' Meeting may resolve to reduce the number of members of the Board of Directors to that of the directors in office for the residual term of office, without prejudice to the need to ensure an adequate number of independent directors and compliance with the regulations in force at the time concerning gender balance.

Whenever, for any cause or reason, the majority of the directors appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting cease to hold office, the entire Board of Directors shall be deemed to have forfeited their position and those directors remaining in office shall call the Shareholders' Meeting to appoint the new Board of Directors according to the procedure referred to in Art. 21 of the Articles of Association mentioned above. The Issuer discloses that it is not subject to additional legal rules concerning the appointment and replacement of the Board of Directors.

At the Date of the Report, the Board of Directors has decided not to adopt a plan for the succession of executive Directors, in consideration of the specific shareholder structure and the current system of delegated powers implemented within the Board of Directors. In this regard, based on the shareholder structure, the Company may promptly activate the Board of Directors in order to adopt the appropriate resolutions.

The Board of Directors is, therefore, composed of executive directors and non-executive directors, with professionalism and skills adequate to the tasks entrusted to them.

The number and skills of the non-executive directors are such as to ensure that they have a significant influence in the adoption of board resolutions and to guarantee effective monitoring of management.

The number and competencies of the independent directors are adequate to the Company's needs and the functioning of the Board of Directors, as well as the constitution of the relevant committees.

Annex A to this Report indicates the positions as director or statutory auditor held by the current Directors of the Company in other companies.

Diversity Policies and criteria in the composition of the Board of Director and in the Company organization

With reference to the provisions in Art. 123-bis, paragraph 2, letter d-bis, of the Consolidated Law on Finance, introduced by Legislative Decree 254/2016, which establishes that in the Report information should be given on the adoption of policies on diversity applied to the composition of the corporate bodies, the Board of Directors has not adopted any policy on diversity for members of the corporate bodies.

This decision takes into account the structure and size of the Company, also in view of its ownership structure, as well as the mechanism of voting by lists provided for in the Articles of Association, which ensures a transparent appointment procedure and a balanced composition of the management body. The Board of Directors has therefore not deemed it necessary to adopt diversity policies and/or practices in relation to the composition of the administration, management and control bodies in relation to aspects such as age, gender composition and training and professional skills.

Maximum number of positions held in other companies

The Board of Directors decided not to define any general criteria for the maximum number of management and control positions held in other companies that may be considered compatible with the effective performance of the role as a director of the Company. This was because the Board deemed it appropriate to leave this kind of assessment on compatibility to the responsibility of the individual directors.

The Company intends to comply with the recommendations contained in Art. 3, Principle XII, of the Corporate Governance Code according to which each director ensures adequate availability of time for the diligent performance of his/her duties.

Induction Programme

All directors have received a disclosure to allow them to acquire adequate knowledge of the sector of activity in which the Issuer operates, the company performance and its development, also with a view to the sustainable success of the company, to the principles of sound risk management and also to the reference regulatory and self-regulatory framework, in accordance with Article 3, Recommendation 12, letter d), of the Corporate Governance Code.

On 13 January 2021, effective as of the date on which the Company's shares began trading on the Euronext Milan market, the Board of Directors, also taking into account Recommendation 11 of the Corporate Governance Code, adopted its own regulations in order to define the rules for the functioning of this body in

line with the statutory and regulatory principles, as well as the principles and rules established by the Corporate Governance Code itself, including the procedures for taking minutes of meetings.

In particular, the Company Bylaws regulate, inter alia: i) the procedures and terms for calling meetings of the Board of Directors, also in the event of urgency; ii) the conditions required for the valid holding of board meetings even in the absence of prior call; iii) the conditions required for the valid holding of board meetings through video and teleconference means iv) the provisions regarding the chairing of individual meetings, which is normally assumed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors; v) the quorums required for the valid constitution of the Board of Directors and the adoption of resolutions on items on the agenda; and vi) the appointment of the Secretary of the Board of Directors and the manner in which the Board of Directors' resolutions are to be recorded in the minutes.

The timeliness and completeness of the pre-meeting information is ensured by the Chairman through the distribution to the directors of the documentation relating to the items on the agenda in the days immediately preceding the scheduled date of the Board of Directors' meeting.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors plays a liaison role between the executive and non-executive directors and ensures the effective functioning of the Board's work. The Chairman of the Board of Directors, with the help of the Secretary of the Board, ensures that the pre-meeting information and the information provided during meetings are suitable to enable directors to act in an informed manner in the performance of their role.

In addition, the President ensures the most appropriate management of the timing of board meetings, favouring the optimisation of debate and graduating the extent of discussion according to the relevance of the items on the agenda. With this in mind, during the Financial Year, the Chairman (i) in agreement with the Chief Executive Officer, ensured that the Company's executives and those of the group companies it heads, responsible for the corporate functions competent according to the subject matter, attended board meetings, also at the request of individual directors, to provide the appropriate in-depth analysis of the items on the agenda; and (ii) ensured that adequate pre-meeting information was provided and that the information provided during meetings was suitable to allow directors to act in an informed manner in carrying out their role.

In consideration of the corporate governance model adopted by the Issuer and consistent with the Group's organisational architecture described above, on 23 December 2020 the Board of Directors appointed Luigi Francesco Gozzini as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer.

Secretary of the Board of Directors

The independence of the aforementioned directors, in accordance with the combined provisions of Articles 147-ter, paragraph 4, and 148, paragraph 3, of the Consolidated Law on Finance, as well as Article 2 of the Corporate Governance Code, also taking into account the declarations made by those involved in submitting the lists, was verified by the Issuer's Board of Directors on 13 January 2021.

The Board of Directors assesses the existence of circumstances relevant to independence, and in any case at least once a year, to determine whether the Independent Directors meet the independence requirements.

For this purpose, each non-executive director shall provide all the elements necessary or useful for the assessment of the Board of Directors, which shall consider, on the basis of all available information, any circumstance that affects or may appear to affect the director's independence.

The results of these verifications will be disclosed in the Board of Statutory Auditors' report to the Shareholders' Meeting pursuant to Article 153 of the Consolidated Law on Finance.

The Lead Independent Director represents a point of reference and coordination for the requests and contributions made by non-executive directors and, in particular, the independent ones, since the Chairman of the Board of Directors is vested with significant management powers.

The Lead Independent Director coordinates the meetings of the Independent Directors only.

During the financial year 2022, the Lead Independent Director attended the meetings of the Board of Directors, the Remuneration Committee and the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee, representing a point of reference not only for the Non-Executive Directors and the Independent Directors, but for all Board members.

5. Management of corporate information

Abitare In has adopted and consolidated over time an articulated compendium of rules and procedures for the correct management of corporate information, in compliance with the regulations applicable to the various types of data.

In particular, the Company has approved the following procedures: (i) the procedure for public disclosure of inside information; (ii) the procedure for registering persons with access to inside information and (ii) the Internal Dealing procedure, already adopted by the Board of Directors on 30 March 2016 and updated on 13 January 2021.

A copy of the procedures is available on the Issuer's website www.abitareinspa.com, in the "Corporate Governance" section.

The Procedure for the disclosure of inside information is aimed at governing, in accordance with Regulation (EU) no. 596/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 April 2014 on market abuse and the related delegated and executive regulations (the "MAR Rules"), the management and processing of inside information, as well as the procedures to be followed for the disclosure, both inside and outside the company, of inside information.

The procedure relating to the keeping of the insider register is aimed at governing, pursuant to the MAR Rules, the establishment and management of the register of persons who, by virtue of their work or professional activity, or the functions performed, have access to inside information on an occasional or regular basis.

The Internal Dealing procedure is aimed at regulating the disclosure obligations vis-à-vis Consob, the Issuer and the public and the methods of conduct associated with the fulfilment by persons exercising administrative, control or management functions within the Issuer and by persons closely linked to them (as identified by Article 19 of Regulation (EU) 596/2014) of transactions involving financial instruments issued by the Issuer.

6. Committes within the board (pursuant to Art. 123-bis, paragraph 2, letter d) of the Consolidated Law on Finance)

The committees represent an articulation of the Board of Directors with advisory and propositional purposes, as they are aimed at improving the Board of Directors' functionality and strategic policy-making capacity. On 13 January 2021 and with effect from the start of trading of the Company's shares on the Euronext Milan market, the Board of Directors established an internal Remuneration Committee, consisting of three independent directors.

On 19 September 2022 the Board of Directors established an internal Risk Control and Sustainability Committee.

The distribution of functions between the various committees takes place in accordance with the provisions of the Corporate Governance Code.

It should also be noted that, in accordance with the provisions of Consob Third-Parties Regulation and Art. 2.1 of the Related-Party Transaction Procedure, the Related party Committee automatically consists of the three independent directors Mario Benito Mazzoleni, Giuseppe Vegas and Nicla Picchi, so it is not necessary, therefore, for the Board of Directors to adopt a specific resolution for their appointment (see paragraph 10.0 of this Report).

The Board of Directors did not consider it necessary to set up an Appointments Committee; this is mainly in consideration of the Company's structure and size, also due to its ownership structure, as well as the list voting mechanism provided for in the Articles of Association, which ensures a transparent appointment procedure and a balanced composition of the administrative body.

On 13 January 2021, the Board of Directors approved (i) the Regulation of the Remuneration Committee and (ii) on 19 September 2022, the Regulation of the Risk Control and Sustainability Committee.

As of the Report Date, no committees other than those recommended by the Corporate Governance Code have been established.

Additional committees (other than those required by law or recommended by the code)

As of the date of the Report, the Company has not established any committees, other than those required by law or recommended by the Corporate Governance Code.

7. Self-assessment and succession of directors - appointments committee

7.1 Self-assessment and succession of directors

In accordance with Principle XIV and Recommendations 21 and 22 of the Corporate Governance Code, the Board of Directors did not deem it necessary to carry out a self-assessment on the functioning of the Board itself and its committees, postponing this assessment to the end of the three-year term of office, as recommended by the aforementioned provisions for companies that do not fall within the definition of a 'large company'.

Succession Plans

In accordance with the provisions of Recommendation 24 of the Corporate Governance Code, the Company - as it does not fall within the definition of a 'large' company - has decided not to have a succession plan for the chief executive officer and executive directors, in case of early termination of office, nor has it adopted procedures for the succession of top management.

7.2 Appointments committee

The Board of Directors does not deem it necessary to establish an internal Appointments Committee; this is mainly in consideration of the structure and size of the Company, also in view of its ownership structure, as well as the mechanism of voting by lists provided for in the Articles of Association, which ensures a transparent appointment procedure and a balanced composition of the management body.

8. Remuneration of the board members - remuneration committee

8.1 Directors' remuneration

Remuneration policy

The information on the remuneration of Directors and executives with strategic responsibilities, including that required by Article 123-bis, paragraph 1, letter i), is contained in the report on remuneration policy and compensation paid, to which reference is made, drafted pursuant to Articles 123-ter of the Consolidated Law on Finance and 84-quater of the Consob Issuers' Regulations as well as in compliance with the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code, available to the public on the Company's website www.abitareinspa.com, section "Corporate Governance", and with the other methods provided for by current regulations.

8.2 Remuneration committee

On 13 January 2021 and with effect from the start of trading of the Company's shares on the Euronext Milan market, the Board of Directors established an internal Remuneration Committee, consisting of three nonexecutive directors, two of which are independent.

Composition and operation of the Remuneration Committee

The committee is composed of the independent directors, Mario Benito Mazzoleni, Giuseppe Vegas and Nicla Picchi.

No Director shall take part in the meetings of the remuneration committee in which proposals are formulated to the Board of Directors relating to his/her remuneration.

The Remuneration Committee is chaired by Nicla Picchi.

All three members of the Remuneration Committee have adequate knowledge and experience in financial matters or remuneration policies, as assessed by the Board of Directors at the time of their appointment.

The Chairperson coordinates the work of the Remuneration Committee, whose meetings are regularly minuted.

During the year, the Remuneration Committee met once. The percentage attendance at these meetings by the members of the Remuneration Committee was as follows: Mario Benito Mazzoleni = 100%; Giuseppe Vegas 100%; Nicla Picchi (100%). The meetings of the Remuneration Committee lasted an average of approximately 1 hour.

Role of the Remuneration Committee

The Remuneration Committee is an advisory and propositional body with the main task of formulating proposals to the Board of Directors for the definition of the remuneration policy for directors and key managers.

The establishment of this committee guarantees the fullest information and transparency regarding the remuneration payable to the Chief Executive Officer and the executive directors in charge of specific functions, as well as on the respective methods of determination.

However, it is understood that, in accordance with Article 2389, paragraph 3, of the Civil Code, the Remuneration Committee only performs proposal-making functions, while the power to determine the remuneration of directors vested with special offices shall in any case remain with the Board of Directors, having heard the opinion of the Board of Statutory Auditors. The Remuneration Committee performs the following tasks:

rectors who hold special offices as well as on the setting of performance objectives related to the

  • a) assisting the Board of Directors in drafting the remuneration policy;
  • b) submitting proposals or issuing opinions on the remuneration of executive directors and other divariable component of that remuneration;
  • c) monitoring the effective application of the remuneration policy and verifying, in particular, the actual achievement of the performance objectives;
  • and top management.

d) periodically assessing the adequacy and overall consistency of the remuneration policy for directors

The composition, tasks and operation of the Remuneration Committee are governed by the rules of the committee approved by the Board of Directors on 13 January 2021.

In the performance of their duties, the members of the Remuneration Committee have the right to access the information and corporate functions necessary for the performance of their duties, as well as to avail themselves of external consultants, within the budget limits approved by the Board of Directors. If the Remuneration Committee makes use of the services of an external consultant to obtain information on market practices regarding remuneration policies, it shall verify in advance that he/she is not in a position to compromise the Committee's independence of judgement.

The Remuneration Committee has been allocated a specific budget by the Board of Directors.

9. Internal control and risk management system (ICRMS) -control risk and sustainability committee

Introduction

The risk management system should not be considered separately from the internal control system in relation to the financial reporting process; in fact, both constitute elements of the same system and are aimed at ensuring the reliability, accuracy and timeliness of financial reporting.

The ICRMS of the Issuer and its subsidiaries consists of the set of rules, procedures and organisational structures aimed at the effective and efficient identification, measurement, management and monitoring of the main risks that may compromise the ability to implement strategies and achieve corporate objectives. The head of the Internal Audit function is responsible for verifying the functionality, adequacy and consistency of the ICRMS with the guidelines.

The ICRMS also responds to the need to guarantee the safeguarding of the company's assets, the efficiency and effectiveness of company operations, the reliability of financial reporting, compliance with laws and regulations, as well as with the company's bylaws and internal procedures, in order to safeguard sound and efficient management.

  • the specific statutory provisions and internal regulations on the allocation of powers and delegation of responsibilities;
  • the system of delegated powers, procedures and risk areas mapped out in the organisational model pursuant to Legislative Decree 231/2001;
  • the objectives and methodologies for risk assessment and the provisions on the administrative, accounting and financial system;
  • the Risk Management system, which aims to identify, measure, manage and monitor the Group's main risks, and which also makes it possible to establish the degree of compatibility of these risks with a management of the business consistent with the identified strategic objectives.

The main references on which Abitare In's ICRMS is based are the following:

  • Corporate Governance Code;
  • Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) and
  • Co.So Framework.

The internal control and risk management system involves, each within its own sphere of competence:

  • the Board of Directors, which sets the guidelines and assesses the adequacy of the internal control and risk management system;
  • the Control, Risks and Sustainability Committee, with the tasks, described in section 9.2 below, of supporting, with adequate preliminary and propositional activity, the Board of Directors' assessments and decisions relating to the system, as well as those relating to the approval of periodic financial reports
  • the Chief Executive Officer, with the duties, specified in detail in paragraph 9.1 below, of identifying the main corporate risks and submitting them periodically to the examination of the Board of Directors. The same is called upon to implement the guidelines defined by the Board of Directors on the subject of risks, reporting to the Risk Control and Sustainability Committee on problems and critical issues that have emerged in the performance of its activities or of which it has otherwise become aware;
  • the head of the Internal Audit Department responsible for verifying that the internal control and risk management system is functional and adequate and consistent with the guidelines, in accordance with the tasks detailed in section 9.3 below;
  • the Board of Statutory Auditors, which oversees the effectiveness of the internal control and risk management system.

The ICRMS, in compliance with the applicable reference regulations, the Corporate Governance Code and in coherence with the internal reference framework and national and international best practices in the sector, is based on the following principles:

  • Consistency with Strategies and Objectives: the ICRMS contributes to the management of the company aimed at sustainable development, maximisation of value in consistency with corporate objectives, assisting management in making informed decisions in which the main risks are identified, assessed, managed and monitored;
  • Risk & Control Based approach: the ICRMS is based on a methodology that anticipates risks, contributing to the taking of informed decisions, as well as to the search for possible opportunities and competitive advantages;
  • Integration: the components of the ICRMS are coordinated and interdependent and the system, as a whole, is in turn integrated into the general organisational, administrative and accounting structure, respecting the autonomy and corporate responsibility of the subsidiaries;
  • Compliance: the ICRMS is defined in compliance with the applicable regulations, the Corporate Governance Code and in coherence with the general reference framework composed, by way of

example, of: Articles of Association, Code of Ethics, Model 231, organisational system, system of powers and proxies and national and international best practices, including Enterprise Risk Management ("ERM");

• - Process approach: the ICRMS is inspired by a process logic, regardless of the location of the rele-

vant activities in the organisational and corporate structure of the Company.

The Risk Management (RM) system is a component of the ICRMS and is implemented by the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, in order to identify, measure, manage and monitor the Group's main risks, and also to establish the degree to which these risks are compatible with a management of the business consistent with the identified strategic objectives.

In this context, the Company has defined the basis for the implementation and development of a unitary Risk Management system, integrated with the Group's business processes, for the systematic analysis, assessment, management and monitoring of risk within the organisation.

The main objectives of the Risk Management system are:

• to define and appropriately update over time the roles and responsibilities, the risk model and the Risk Management methodology and tools necessary to guarantee effective and timely risk manage-

  • ment
  • identify all types of risk that may, by their very nature, have an impact on Group Companies
  • identify specific containment plans for the risks assessed by the risk owners;
  • mentation of solutions necessary for risk mitigation.

• ensure the proper management and ongoing monitoring of risk by risk owners, directing the imple-

Main characteristics of existing risk management and internal control systems in relation to the financial reporting process

On 5 July 2021, the Board of Directors, also in its function as Risk Control Committee, approved the work plan prepared by the head of the Internal Audit function, after consultation with the control body and the Chief Executive Officer (the 'Audit Plan').

On 12 July 2022, the Board of Directors, also in its capacity as Risk Control Committee, approved the Enterprise Risk Management ('ERM') model.

ERM aims to integrate risk management activities into the organisation's processes and culture, following an approach of gradual implementation and continuous improvement of the process itself.

From an operational point of view, the Issuer, in line with the principles indicated by the Co.So Framework, manages the Risk Management process through four phases:

• phase 3 'Monitoring': constant monitoring of risk trends, the status of implementation of treatment

  • phase 1 "Risk Assessment": identification, evaluation and classification of the risk
  • phase 2 "Treatment": identification of risk responses and implementation of treatment actions;
  • actions, identification of changes and emerging risks, and revision of the risk model;
  • mation useful for risk management.

• phase 4 'Reporting': reporting of quantitative and qualitative information on the risks monitored for Management and the Board of Directors, sharing with internal and external stakeholders of inforDuring the year, two assessments were completed in separate periods (1st half-year and 2nd half-year 2022), which were followed by the subsequent phases of the Risk Management process. The analysis of the data that emerged allowed for the identification and assessment of the risks referable to the areas examined, as well as their prioritisation. The latter activity allowed the identification and inclusion of a financial type risk in the list of main risks, for which suitable measurement tools called Key Risk Indicators were defined. The activity was carried out by conducting various interviews with management and the various functional heads of the Company. These activities enabled the identification of those risks with the highest degree of probability of occurrence and/or economic impact on the company's business. From the analysis of the results just expressed, the Company has therefore identified the so-called 'Top Risks'. The company Protiviti Inc. was appointed to support the Company in carrying out these activities.

The internal control system in relation to financial reporting

The internal control and risk management system extends to financial reporting that is an integral part thereof, which is also governed by organisational procedures and provisions that ensure compliance with the general control principles predetermined by the Company (such as the correct segregation of functions, a correct system of proxies and powers of attorney), based on the main reference models and, at the same time, being subject to periodic assessment and review of the control safeguards implemented to minimise corporate risks.

This system consists of the set of internal procedures and tools adopted to enable the achievement of the objectives of reliability, accuracy, trustworthiness and timeliness of financial reporting. With specific reference to the processes relating to the preparation of financial reports, the figures involved are: the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee, the head of the Internal Audit function, and the Manager responsible for preparing the Company's financial reports.

On 13 January 2021, following the favourable opinion of the Board of Statutory Auditors, the Board of Directors also approved a specific memorandum on the Company's management control and reporting system (see paragraph 4.3 of this Report).

9.1 Chief Executive Officer

On 13 January 2021, the Board of Directors also appointed the Managing Director Marco Claudio Grillo, as the Chief Executive Officer, tasked with establishing and maintaining the internal control and risk management system, starting from the date on which the trading of the Company's shares on the Euronext Milan market was launched.

The Chief Executive Officer is responsible for:

  • a) managing the identification of the main corporate risks, taking into account the characteristics of the activities carried out by the Company and its subsidiaries, submitting them periodically for examination by the Board of Directors;
  • b) implementing the guidelines defined by the Board of Directors, overseeing the planning, implementation and management of the internal control and risk management system and constantly verifying its adequacy and effectiveness, as well as ensuring its adaptation to the dynamics of operating conditions and the general legislative and regulatory framework;

During the Year, the Chief Executive Officer initiated the following activities:

• the implementation of an internal control and risk management system in accordance with Article 6

• the introduction of a corporate procedure applied to all Group companies, in order to indicate guidelines for the identification, assessment and possible treatment of relevant risks and opportunities, with the aim of: (i) promoting the dissemination of risk management in corporate processes, to ensure consistency in methodologies and tools for risk management and control; (ii) developing a common language and disseminating an adequate risk management culture; (iii) providing a homogeneous approach for the identification of events that may affect the company's business; (iv) ensuring the performance of activities by coordinating risk owners and other actors involved in the process;

• carrying out risk assessment activities that confirmed the methodological framework of the company procedure and the Risk Model adopted, which, taking into account the characteristics of the activities performed by the company and its subsidiaries, identifies risks in four macro-categories: (i) strategic risks, related to company strategies aimed at obtaining a competitive advantage consistent with the objectives set forth in the business plan; (ii) operational risks, related to the organisational structure, control processes and Group information systems (iii) financial risks, related to the sector in which the Company operates and the business model with which it operates in order to achieve the objectives of the business plan; (iv) compliance risks, related to the possibility of incurring judicial or administrative sanctions, significant financial losses or reputational damage as a result of violations of

In the performance of his duties, the Chief Executive Officer has so far not encountered any critical issues that need to be brought to the attention of the Board of Directors and the Control Risk and Sustainability Committee (once it has been established), and he keeps the latter up-to-date on the relevant developments.

9.2 Control risk and sustainability committee

On 19 September 2022, the Board of Directors established an internal Audit, Risk Management and Sustainability Committee (the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee) composed of three non-executive directors, two of whom are independent.

Composition and functioning of the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee

The Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee is composed of the two independent directors Mario Benito Mazzoleni and Nicla Picchi, and the non-executive director Eleonora Reni.

The meetings of the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee are attended by the Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors, who may designate another standing auditor to attend in his stead; however, the other standing auditors may also attend. As a rule, the Head of the Audit Function also attends these meetings. The Committee Chairman may, from time to time, invite other members of the Board of Directors, as well as representatives of corporate functions or third parties, whose presence may be of assistance to the better performance of the Committee's functions, to the Committee's meetings, with reference to individual items on the agenda.

The Chairman of the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee is the independent director Nicla Picchi.

The meetings of the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee are chaired by the Chairman or, in case of his absence or impediment, by the oldest member.

During the Financial Year, the Board of Directors, in its capacity as Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee met four times. The percentage attendance of all members at these meetings was 100%.

Functions of the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee

The Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee has the task of supporting the Board of Directors' evaluations and decisions relating to the internal control and risk management system, as well as those relating to the approval of periodic financial reports, by means of an adequate preliminary activity of a propositional and advisory nature.

In this context, the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee issues its prior opinion to the Board of Directors:

  • e) on the guidelines of the internal control and risk management system, so that the main risks concerning Abitare In and the companies it controls - including the various risks that may be relevant with a view to sustainability in the medium-long term - are correctly identified, as well as adequately measured, managed and monitored
  • f) on the degree of compatibility of the risks referred to in point (a) above with a management of the company consistent with the identified strategic objectives;

9.4 Organisational model pursuant to decree 231

The Company has adopted and effectively implemented an organisational, management and control model that represents the organisational and management tool designed to prevent the Company's employees and collaborators from committing the offences specified in Decree 231 (the "231 Model").

The duties of supervising the functioning, observance, effectiveness and updating of the 231 Model were assigned by the Company to a supervisory body consisting of three members (the "Supervisory Body"). On 11 April 2022, the Board of Directors updated the 231 Model following the publication of the new Confindustria 2021 Guidelines. The Supervisory Board has autonomous powers of initiative and control as provided for in Legislative Decree 231/2001.

During the year, the Supervisory Body held seven meetings.

The 231 Model is constantly updated and monitored, with particular attention to the prevention of crimes and risk assessment, following changes in the regulatory framework.

The Company extended the 231 Model to its subsidiaries.

The 231 Model consists of a general part and a specific part, organised in various sections.

The general part includes, among other things, the Code of Ethics, the disciplinary system and a specific section on the Supervisory Body.

10. Directors' interests and related-party transactions

On 31 March 2016, the Board of Directors adopted a procedure to identify related-party transactions and to ensure transparency and substantive and procedural fairness of such transactions (the "Related-Party Transaction Procedure"). On 13 January 2021, the Board of Directors approved the Related-Party Transaction Procedure, also on the basis of the amendments to the Related Parties' Regulation containing provisions on related-party transactions made by Consob Resolution no. 21624 of 10 December 2020, with effect from the start of trading of the Company's shares on the Euronext Milan market.

This procedure is available to the public on the Company's website www.abitareinspa.com.

In particular, under the procedure, a transaction with related parties means "a transfer of resources, services or obligations between a company and a related party, regardless of whether a consideration has been agreed" as defined pursuant to the international accounting standards adopted in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002.

Prior to the approval of transactions with related parties subject to the rules in the Related Parties' Regulation, a specifically established committee must provide a reasoned, non-binding opinion on the Company's interest in carrying out the transaction, as well as on the economic benefits and substantive correctness of the related conditions.

The Related-party Committee is composed of all the independent directors that may from time to time be in office, without prejudice to the fact that if it is not possible to establish a Related-party Committee in a collegial format, also with a view to its similarity, the Related-party Committee shall be deemed validly established with the presence of just the independent director and with the attendance of one of the equivalent safeguards provided for in the Related-Party Transaction Procedure adopted by the Company: (i) the Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors provided that he/she is not, with respect to the specific transaction, a related party; or (ii) the longest-serving standing auditor, provided that he/she is not, with respect to the specific transaction, a related party; or (iii) an independent expert chosen by the Board of Directors from among persons with recognised professionalism and expertise on matters of interest, whose independence and absence of conflicts of interest are assessed.

In order to allow the Related-party Committee to issue its reasoned opinion, the CEO shall provide the Related-party Committee well in advance with complete and adequate information on the specific transaction with related parties. In particular, this information must include at least the indication of the related party, the nature of the relationship, the subject, the consideration envisaged and the other main terms and conditions of the transaction, the expected timing, the reasons underlying the transaction and any risks for the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as, in the case of transactions defined as standard or at arm's length, the objective elements providing evidence in this regard.

The Committee must give its opinion before the final approval of the transaction with related parties by the Board of Directors, if the transaction falls within the remit of the latter, or by the Shareholders' Meeting, if the transaction falls within its purview.

If, in relation to a more significant transaction, the proposed resolution submitted to the Shareholders' Meeting is approved in the presence of a contrary opinion from the Related-party Committee, without prejudice to the provisions of Articles 2368, 2369 and 2373 of the Civil Code, this transaction cannot be carried out if the majority of the unrelated shareholders present at the Shareholders' Meeting, representing a stake of at least 10% of the share capital, casts a vote against the transaction with related parties.

The Related-Party Transaction Procedure provides for framework resolutions which allow the Company to carry out, directly or through its subsidiaries, series of similar transactions with certain categories of related parties, which are identified from time to time by the Board of Directors. Framework resolutions must have effect for no longer than one year and must indicate, with sufficient precision, the transactions that are the subject of the resolutions, the maximum foreseeable amount of the transactions to be carried out in the reference period, and the reasons for the envisaged conditions in relation to such transactions.

At the Date of the Report, except as indicated above with reference to the Related-Party Transaction Procedure, the Board has not adopted specific operational solutions designed to facilitate the identification and adequate management of situations where a director is the holder of an interest on his/her own behalf or on behalf of third parties, bearing in mind that the Board's decisions are taken with adequate transparency and after thorough discussion that enables it to verify any possible conflict of interest or co-interest situation.

Related-party transactions - preliminary assessment and approval

As a "smaller company" pursuant to Article 3, paragraph 1, letter f), of the Related Parties' Regulation, the Company makes use, in accordance with Article 10 of the Related Parties' Regulation, of the right to apply the procedure established for less significant Related-Party Transactions to more significant Related-Party Transactions, as described below and contained in Article 5 of the Procedure. The Board of Directors of the Company or the competent delegated body approves Related-Party Transactions, subject to a non-binding reasoned opinion of the Related-Party Transaction Committee, on the Company's interest Company's interest in carrying out the transaction, as well as on the economic benefits and substantive correctness of the related conditions.

In order to allow the Related-party Transaction Committee to issue a reasoned opinion on the matter:

  • (i) the Head of the Function must provide The Company's Secretariat with complete and adequate information well in advance on the Related-Party Transaction. In particular, this information must include the nature of the relationship, the main terms and conditions of the Transaction, the timing, the reasons underlying the Transaction and any risks for the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company's Secretariat sends this information to the Committee; and
  • (ii) if the Related-Party Transaction Committee deems it necessary or appropriate, it may consult with one or more independent experts of its choice. In selecting experts, one shall use persons with recognised professionalism and expertise in the matters of interest and they will be assessed as to their independence and the absence of conflicts of interest.

The Related-Party Transaction Committee must issue its opinion in time for the approval of the Related-Party Transaction and must promptly provide the body responsible for approving the Related-Party Transaction with adequate information regarding the preliminary assessment conducted on the Transaction to be approved. This information must include at least the nature of the relationship, the terms and conditions of the Transaction, the timing, the assessment procedure followed and the reasons underlying the Transaction, as well as any risks for the Company and its subsidiaries. The Committee must also send the body responsible for approving the Transaction any other opinions issued in relation to the Transaction.

11. Statutory auditors

11.1 Appointment of statutory auditors

The appointment and replacement of members of the Board of Statutory Auditors is governed by Article 24 of the Articles of Association, which establishes the following.

The Board of Statutory Auditors is composed of three standing statutory auditors and two substitute statutory auditors who remain in office for three financial years and end their term of office on the date of the Shareholders' Meeting called to approve the financial statements for the third year of their office, with the powers and obligations set forth by law. Those who are in the conditions referred to in Article 2399 of the Civil Code may not be appointed as statutory auditors and, if appointed, shall be disqualified from office. The Statutory Auditors must meet the requirements of integrity, professionalism and independence and those relating to the limit of number of offices held as specified in the laws and regulations in force from time to time.

The Statutory Auditors are appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting on the basis of lists submitted by the shareholders, according to the following procedures, without prejudice to any other and additional provisions provided for by mandatory legal or regulatory provisions in force from time to time.

The following may submit a list for the appointment of statutory auditors: shareholders who, at the time of submitting a list, hold, individually or jointly, a number of shares at least equal to the same stake determined by Consob pursuant to the applicable legal and regulatory provisions (as at the Date of the Report, this stake with reference to the Company is equal to 4.5% of the share capital as reported by Consob Resolution no. 51 of 14 October 2021), for the purpose of submitting lists for the appointment of the Board of Directors of companies with shares traded on regulated markets (Articles 144-quater and 144-sexies of Consob resolution no. 11971 of 14 May 1999). The holding of the minimum stake is determined having regard to the shares that are registered in favour of the shareholder on the day on which the list is filed with the Company, without prejudice to the fact that the related certification may also be produced after the list is filed, provided it is within the deadline set for the publication of the list.

The lists are filed at the Company's registered office within the deadlines provided for by the laws and regulations in force from time to time, as indicated in the notice of call at the Company's registered office or by means of remote communication as indicated in the notice of call, and made available to the public within the terms and in the manner provided for by the laws or regulations in force from time to time.

If, on the expiry date of the term for submitting lists, only one list has been filed, or only lists submitted by shareholders that are connected to each other pursuant to the legislation, also of a regulatory nature, in force at the time, further lists may be submitted up to the third day following that date, by shareholders who, upon submission of the list, hold, either alone or jointly, a number of shares at least equal to half of the minimum stake required by the Articles of Association.

Each list must i) contain the names of one or more candidates for the office of standing statutory auditor and one or more candidates for the office of substitute statutory auditor, marked in each section ("standing statutory auditor" section, "substitute statutory auditor" section) with sequential numbers, totalling no more than the members of the body to be appointed and ii) must indicate, where there is a total number of candidates equal to or greater than three, a list of candidates in both sections to ensure that the composition of the Board of Statutory Auditors, for standing members and substitute members, complies with the legal and regulatory provisions in force from time to time, in terms of gender equality, on the understanding that if the application of the gender distribution criterion does not produce a whole number, this must be rounded up to the next higher unit, except in the case where the control body consists of three standing statutory auditors for whom the number shall be rounded down to the lower unit.

The following documents are filed together and simultaneously with each list: (i) the information relating to the identity of the shareholders who submitted them, with an indication of the percentage of total shareholding held; (ii) the statement from shareholders other than those who hold, also jointly, a controlling or relative majority interest, certifying the absence of relationships linking them with the latter in accordance with the applicable regulations; (iii) a CV containing comprehensive information on the personal and professional characteristics of the candidates, as well as a statement from the same candidates attesting that they

meet the requirements laid down by law, and accept their candidacy, accompanied by a list of the management and control positions they hold in other companies; (iv) any additional or different statements, disclosures and/or documents required by law and the applicable regulations.

No shareholder, as well as shareholders belonging to the same corporate group and shareholders adhering to a significant shareholders' agreement pursuant to Art. 122 of the Consolidated Law on Finance, may submit or contribute to the submission of more than one list, not even by proxy or through a trust company, or vote for different lists.

Candidates may be included in only one list, under pain of ineligibility.

Any lists submitted without complying with the above provisions shall be considered as not submitted.

If two or more lists have been submitted, one shall proceed with voting on the lists submitted and forming the Board of Statutory Auditors, in accordance with the following provisions:

  • f) the candidates from the two lists that have obtained the highest number of votes are elected, according to the following criteria: (i) two standing auditors and one substitute auditor shall be drawn from the list that obtained the highest number of votes ("Majority List for the Board of Statutory Auditors"), based on the sequential order in which they are ranked in the list; (ii) the third standing auditor ("Minority Standing Auditor") and the second substitute auditor ("Minority Substitute Auditor") shall be drawn from the second list that obtained the greatest number of votes (based on their sequential order in that list) and that is not connected even indirectly with the shareholders who submitted or with those who voted for the Majority List for the Board of Statutory Auditors pursuant to the applicable provisions; the Minority Standing Auditor shall chair the Board of Statutory Auditors;
  • g) in the event of a tie between lists, the Shareholders' Meeting shall proceed with a new vote, solely with regard to those lists that have tied, and the list that obtains the highest number of votes shall prevail; in the event of a further tie between the lists that were voted on, the list submitted by shareholders with the greater equity interest or, in the event of equal ownership, by the greater number of shareholders shall prevail and be considered the most voted list pursuant to point (a)(i) above;
  • h) if, in the manner indicated above, the legal and regulatory provisions in force from time to time regarding gender parity are not complied with, then the last elected candidate (in sequential order) for the office of standing or substitute auditor of the most represented gender in the Majority List for the Board of Statutory Auditors shall be excluded and will be replaced by the next candidate for the office of standing or substitute auditor, drawn from the same list, belonging to the other gender.

If only one list has been submitted, the Shareholders' Meeting expresses its vote on that list and if it obtains the majority of votes, three standing statutory auditors and two substitute auditors are elected as candidates for such offices, in accordance with the legislative and regulatory provisions in force from time to time, also regarding respect for gender equality.

In the absence of lists, or if it is not possible for any reason to proceed with appointing the Board of Statutory Auditors according to the procedures provided for in the Articles of Association, the three standing statutory auditors and the two substitute auditors shall be appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting with the ordinary majorities provided for by law, in accordance with the legal and regulatory provisions, in force from time to time also regarding gender equality, including the rounding up to the next higher unit if the gender distribution criterion is not a whole number.

In the event of any termination of office, for any reason, of a Standing Auditor, without prejudice to compliance with the legal and regulatory provisions in force from time to time with respect to gender equality, one shall proceed as follows: (i) if a standing auditor from the Majority List for the Board of Statutory Auditors ceases to hold office, he/she shall be replaced by the substitute auditor from the Majority List for the Board of Statutory Auditors, (ii) if the Minority Standing Auditor who is also the Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors ceases to hold office, he/she shall be replaced by the Minority Substitute Auditor, who shall assume the office of Chairman. If, for any reason, it is not possible to proceed according to the terms indicated above, a Shareholders' Meeting must be called, so that it restores the Board of Statutory Auditors to its proper composition with the ordinary procedures and majorities, without applying the mechanism of voting by lists, without prejudice to compliance with the legal and regulatory provisions in force from time to time on gender equality (male and female).

The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting shall determine the remuneration to be paid to standing auditors at the time of their appointment.

The Issuer has always taken steps to provide prompt and easy access to information that is relevant to its shareholders, highlighting, for example, the relative publication on its website.

The Company has decided not to adopt a shareholders' meeting regulation, since it is not deemed necessary in consideration of the size of the Issuer.

Dialogue with shareholders

The Issuer, in accordance with the principles set out in the Corporate Governance Code, promotes dialogue with shareholders and other stakeholders relevant to the Company.

The Shareholders' Meeting represents an opportunity for dialogue between the shareholders and the Board of Directors also for the communication of information on the Company to the shareholders, in compliance with the applicable regulations in force.

As of the date of the Report, the Board of Directors has not yet adopted a policy for the management of dialogue with shareholders in general, deeming it advisable to assess and deepen the dynamics of this dialogue in order to implement such a policy during the 2023 financial year.

13. Shareholders' meetings (pursuant to Art. 123-bis, paragraph 1, letter l) and paragraph 2, letter c) of the Consolidated Law on Finance)

The main provisions of the Articles of Association containing the rules governing the Issuer's ordinary and extraordinary shareholders' meetings are listed below. For more information, one should refer to the Articles of Association.

The ordinary and extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting passes resolutions on the matters reserved to it by law and the Articles of Association.

Resolutions that fall within the purview of the Shareholders' Meeting that may be attributed to the management body, pursuant to the Articles of Association, do not cease to be the main responsibility of the Shareholders' Meeting, which retains the power to resolve on such matters. In the event of a conflict between the decisions taken by the Shareholders' Meeting and those taken by the management body, the former shall

prevail.

The Shareholders' Meeting is called, within the terms provided for by law, by a notice published on the Company's website and with the other procedures provided for by current laws and regulations. The shareholders' meeting may also be convened away from the registered office, provided it is in Italy.

The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting shall be called by the management body at least once a year, within a hundred and twenty days of the end of the financial year or, in the cases provided for by Article 2364, paragraph 2, of the Civil Code, within a hundred and eighty days of the end of the financial year, without prejudice to any further term provided for by applicable laws and regulations.

The Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting is held in single call, pursuant to Article 2369, paragraph 1, of the Civil Code. The Board of Directors may, however, determine, if it deems it appropriate and by expressly indicating it in the notice of call, that the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting shall be held in two calls and the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting in two or three calls, applying the majorities established by legal and regulatory provisions in force from time to time with reference to each of these cases.

The right to attend and vote in the Shareholders' Meeting is governed by the legal and regulatory provisions in force at the time.

The persons entitled to participate in the Shareholders' Meeting, in compliance with the laws and regulations in force, are those persons who are entitled to vote and for whom the Company has received a specific notice through an intermediary authorised to keep the accounts in accordance with the law, based on the evidence of its accounting records relating to the end of the accounting day of the seventh market trading day prior to the date set for the shareholders' meeting on single call, and which was received by the Company within the terms set by law.

Each shareholder with the right to participate may be represented by others by written proxy, delivered to the proxy also by fax or email, or in any case according to the procedures indicated in the notice of call, provided that the origin is ensured by the delegating party. The proxy may be granted for only one Shareholders' Meeting, with effect also for any subsequent calls.

The Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting may be held with participants in several locations, adjacent or remote, with audio-visual connections, provided that the collegial method and the principles of good faith and equal treatment of shareholders are observed, and in particular provided that:

  • a) the Chairman of the Shareholders' Meeting, also through the chairman's office, is in a position to verify the identity and legitimacy of the participants, to conduct the meeting and to verify and announce the results of any votes;
  • b) the minute-taker is in a position to adequately follow the events of the meeting to be recorded in the minutes;
  • c) the participants are in a position to take part in the discussions and to vote simultaneously on the items on the agenda, as well as to view, receive or transmit documents;
  • d) the places with audio-visual connections where the participants can go, and/or the telephone number to be connected to, are indicated in the notice of call (unless it is a Shareholders' Meeting with full membership), if applicable. The meeting is deemed to be held in the place where the Chairman and the minute-taker are present.

The Company may designate, for each Shareholders' Meeting, with indication contained in the notice of call, a party to whom shareholders may confer a proxy with voting instructions on all or some proposals on the agenda, according to the terms and methods provided for by law.

Shareholders' Meetings are chaired by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, or, in the case of his/her absence or renunciation, by the Deputy Chairman if appointed or by a person appointed by the vote of the majority of the share capital represented at the Shareholders' Meeting.

The Shareholders' Meeting appoints a secretary, that does not need to be a shareholder, and, if necessary, one or more tellers, including non-shareholders. The Chairman of the Shareholders' Meeting is responsible for verifying the regular constitution of the Shareholders' Meeting, ascertaining the identity and entitlement of those present, directing and regulating the conduct of the Shareholders' Meeting and ascertaining and announcing voting results. Shareholders' meetings are recorded in minutes drawn up by the secretary and signed by him/her and also by the Chairman. In the cases provided for by law and when the management body or the Chairman of the Shareholders' Meeting deems it appropriate, the minutes are drawn up by a Notary. In this case, the assistance of a secretary is not necessary.

The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting and the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting are constituted in accordance with the law and pass resolutions with the legal majorities.

As specified in Article 8 of the Articles of Association, each share confers the right to cast one vote. The Articles of Association do not provide for shares with multiple voting rights or mechanisms that increase voting rights.

The Board of Directors has not provided for a shareholders' meeting regulation and the conduct of Shareholders' Meetings follows the provisions in current legislation that ensures the proper conduct of Shareholders' Meetings and the execution of the rights of each shareholder, including the right to take the floor on the items under discussion.

During the year, the Shareholders' Meeting was held on 21 January 2022, with the intervention of all the Company Directors and all Statutory Auditors.

14Additional corporate governance practices (pursuant to Art. 123-bis, paragraph 2, letter a), second part, Consolidated Law on Finance)

At the Date of the Report, no additional corporate governance practices had been adopted with respect to those indicated in this Report.

15. Changes from the end of the reporting period

No changes have occurred since the end of the reporting period.

16. Considerations on the letter of 3 december 2021 from the president for corporate governance

With regard to the letter dated 3 December 2021 from the Chairman of the Corporate Governance Committee addressed to the Chairmen of the Boards of Directors of Italian listed companies, the Board of Directors considered the recommendations contained in the annual communication from the Chairman of the Corporate Governance Committee, as well as the provisions of the Code.

The same recommendations were considered in order to verify the effectiveness of adherence to the Corporate Governance Code and identify any improvement actions in the areas in respect of which the Corporate Governance Committee called for better adherence to the recommendations contained in the Code.

Accounting standards and measurement criteria

Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2022 have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and endorsed by the European Union, as well as the measures issued in implementation of Article 9 of Legislative Decree No. 38/2005. IFRSs also include the International Accounting Standards ('IAS') still in force, as well as all interpretative documents issued by the IFRS Interpretation Committee, formerly the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ('IFRIC') and before that the Standing Interpretations Committee ('SIC'). The consolidated financial statements are prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the fair value measurement of certain financial instruments.

These financial statements are based on the going concern assumption.

The publication of these consolidated financial statements of the Abitare In Group for the year ended 30 September 2022 is authorised by a resolution of the Board of Directors on 13 December 2022.

Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements of the Abitare In Group as at 30 September 2022 comprise the statement of financial position, income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity, cash flow statement and notes, prepared in accordance with IFRS. The statements of financial position present a classification of current and non-current assets and current and non-current liabilities where: (i) non-current assets include asset balances with a normal operating cycle beyond 12 months; (ii) current assets include asset balances with a normal operating cycle within 12 months and cash and cash equivalents; (iii) non-current liabilities include payables due beyond 12 months; (iv) current liabilities include payables due within 12 months.

Finally, the cash flow statement was prepared using the indirect method for determining cash flows from operating activities. Under this method, profit for the year is adjusted for the effects of non-monetary transactions, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments, and items of income or expense associated with cash flows from investing or financing activities. Unless otherwise stated, amounts in the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto are stated in euros. Rounding in the figures in the financial statements and notes is done to ensure consistency with the amounts in the statement of financial position and income statement.

Pursuant to IFRS 8 - information on operating segments is not provided as it is not relevant.

Statement of Amounts in the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes

Unless otherwise specified, all amounts shown in the consolidated financial statements and in the notes are in Euro. The figures shown in the financial statements and in the notes are rounded up/down to ensure consistency with the figures shown in the statement of financial position and the income statement.

Basis of consolidation

Scope of consolidation

The scope of consolidation includes subsidiaries for which control can be exercised as defined in IFRS 10, which envisages that an investor controls an entity in which it has invested when it has rights that give it the possibility to direct the entity's significant assets, has an exposure, or a right, to receive variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has a real possibility of using its power to influence the amount of its return on investment.

The results of subsidiaries acquired or sold during the financial year are included in the consolidated income statement from the actual acquisition date until the actual sale date. If necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of the subsidiaries to align the accounting policies used with those adopted by the Group.

The consolidation of the financial statements of the subsidiaries was carried out according to the line by line consolidation method, assuming the full amount of the assets, liabilities, costs and revenues of the individual companies, regardless of the equity investments held, eliminating the carrying amount of the consolidated equity investments held by the company against the related equity.

The minority shareholders' interest in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries is identified separately from the Group's equity. This interest is determined at the acquisition date on the basis of the fair value of the minority interest or as a proportion of the current value of the recognised net assets of the acquiree and after that date in changes in equity. The choice of measurement method is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Losses attributable to third parties in a consolidated subsidiary may exceed the non-controlling interests in the subsidiary's equity; in such cases non-controlling interests will present a negative balance. The effects of changes in the shareholdings of subsidiaries that do not involve acquisition/loss of control are recorded under changes in equity.

Profits and losses, provided they are significant, not yet realized and deriving from transactions between companies within the scope of consolidation are eliminated, as are all items of significant amount that give rise to payables and receivables, costs and revenues between Group companies. These adjustments, like other consolidation adjustments, take into account the related deferred tax effect, where applicable.

Compared to the previous year, the scope of consolidation is unchanged. On 4 July 2022, the direct merger of Richard S.r.l. into Abitare In Development 4 S.r.l. was finalised. The subsidiaries prepare their annual financial statements in accordance with the regulations applicable in Italy and Italian GAAP, and it was therefore necessary to carry out a conversion process from these accounting standards to IFRS in order to align them with the Group's accounting standards.

Assessment Criteria

Revenue Recognition and Inventory

Revenue is recognised to the extent that the economic benefits are realised by the company and the amount can be reliably determined, regardless of the date of receipt. Revenues are measured at the fair value of the consideration to which the entity believes it is entitled in exchange for the transfer of goods or services to the customer, taking into account the agreed contractual terms and commitments.

Following the provisions of IFRS 15, paragraph 35, the entity transfers control of the good or service over time upon the occurrence of at least one of the following conditions:

  • a) the customer simultaneously receives and consumes all of the benefits provided by the entity as the entity performs;
  • b) the entity's performance creates or enhances an asset (for example, work in progress) that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced;
  • c) the entity's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the entity and the entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

In the case at hand, the condition under point c) above is met.

In the foregoing cases, revenue from sales can be recognised according to models based on inputs (e.g. resources consumed, labour hours expended, costs incurred, machine hours used, etc.) or outputs (e.g. surveys of performance completed to date, appraisal of results achieved, time elapsed and number of units produced/delivered).

With regard to the business model currently adopted by the Company, the possible cases are:

  • a) real estate projects for which the preliminary conveyance agreements have yet to be signed;
  • b) real estate projects for which, although the preliminary conveyance agreements have been signed, the conditions under the aforementioned paragraph 35 are not met;
  • c) real estate projects for which the preliminary conveyance agreements have been signed and the conditions under the aforementioned paragraph 35 are met;
  • d) conveyancing completed after finalising the related final conveyance agreement (by public deed).

In cases a) and b), inventory is recognised at the lower of its purchase price, inclusive of directly attributable ancillary costs, and its estimated realisable value based on market trends. Work in progress has been recognised on the basis of the expenses incurred in the period. Losses on contracts, if any, are recognised in the income statement in the year in which they became known.

Changes in inventory, depending on whether or not the associated real estate development has commenced, are recognised through profit or loss, respectively under "Change in inventory for new sites purchased" or "Change in inventory for progress of works" respectively.

In case c), inventory is measured using the percentage completion method in reference to construction costs (input-based model) and recognising, for pre-sold real estate units (i.e. units for which the prospective buyer has signed a preliminary contract), a portion of the margin expected upon completion of the real estate development. Contractual amendments, that is, any changes to the original stipulations (e.g. price changes for customisation of pre-sold real estate units), are recognised as an adjustment to revenue and, consequently, to the profit margin of the contract, on the date such amendments are approved by the prospective buyer. In addition, when it is likely that total contract costs will exceed contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised in the income statement. The related change is recognised in the income statement under "Change in inventory for progress of works".

In case d), on the date on which the final conveyance agreement takes effect, revenue from the sale is recognised in the income statement under "Revenue from sales and services" and the decrease in inventory is recognised under "Change in inventory for progress of works".

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are initially recognised at purchase or production cost, including other directly at-attributable costs. Interest expense linked to the construction of property, plant and equipment is capitalised and amortised over the residual useful life of the asset to which it refers.

Costs incurred after purchasing the assets and the cost of replacing some parts of this category of assets are capitalised only if they increase the expected future economic benefits of the asset they refer to. All other costs are recognised in profit or loss when incurred. If the cost of replacing some parts of the assets is capitalised, the residual value of the replaced parts is recognised in profit or loss. If significant parts of such assets have different useful lives, such parts are recognised separately in accordance with the component approach.

Items of Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses in accordance with IAS 36. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the asset's estimated useful life for the company and reviewed yearly. Any changes, where necessary, are applied prospectively. The following main economic-technical rates have been used:

Category Depreciation rate
Property 3%
Plant and machinery 30%
Furniture and fixtures 10%
Other assets 20%

Intangible assets

These items are initially recognised at purchase and/or production cost, including any directly attributable costs incurred to prepare the asset for use at the place and in the condition necessary for it to be able to function in the manner expected by the company management. Any interest expense accrued during and in relation to the development of other intangible assets is recognised directly through profit or loss. Production costs do not include re-search costs, which are recognised directly through profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

Vice-versa, development costs can be capitalised if the following conditions are satisfied: i) the project is clearly identified and the associated costs can be identified and measured reliably; ii) the technical feasibility of the project has been established; iii) there is a clear intention to complete the project and sell the intangible assets generated by the project; iv) a potential market exists or, in the case of internal use, the usefulness of the intangible asset has been established for the production of the intangible assets generated by the project; v) adequate technical and financial resources to complete the project are available. Intangible assets acquired in business combinations are recognised at their fair value at the date of acquisition if this value can be reliably measured.

Intangible assets acquired in business combinations are recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date, if this value can be reliably determined. Acquired software acquired and related to software are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred for their acquisition and use. Amortisation is calculated using the straightline method over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with a finite useful life. Intangible assets with a finite useful life are stated net of accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses determined as described in the following section. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are stated net of accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses determined in the manner described in the following section. The main economic-technical rates used are as follows:

Category Amortisation rate
Development costs 20%
Other assets 20%

Leasing

Starting from 1 January 2019, leases are treated in accordance with IFRS 16, which provides a new definition of lease and introduces a criterion based on the control (right of use) of an asset to distinguish leases from service contracts, identifying as the distinguishing features: the identification of the asset, the right to replace the asset, the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from using the asset and the right to direct the use of the as-set underlying the contract.

The standard establishes a single model to recognise and measure leases for the lessee, which requires the recognition of the leased asset, including operating, under assets with a financial liability as balancing entry while also providing the option of not recognising under leases those contracts that relate to low-value assets and the leases with a duration of the contract of 12 months or less.

Based on the provisions of IFRS 16, the accounting representation of the leases payable (which is not the provision of services) takes place through recognising a financial liability in the balance sheet, represented by the current value of the lease payments due for recognising the right of use of the leased business as an asset. Lease payments include fixed payments, net of any incentives to be received, variable payments that depend on an index or rate, initially valued by using the values at the start of the contract, and the exercise price of any purchase option if the Company and/or the Group are reasonably certain of exercising it. The liability calculated in this way is subsequently adjusted over the lease term to reflect the payment of interest on the debt and repayment of the principal amount and may also be remeasured (with a corresponding adjustment to the corresponding right of use) if there is a change in future payments, in the event of renegotiation/amendment of the contractual agreements, or in the event of a change in the case of exercising purchase options. Whereas the right to use the leased asset is amortised over the term of the contract. Therefore, under IFRS 16 lessees are no longer required to distinguish between finance leases and operating leases.

With reference to options:

• the rights of use and the financial liabilities associated with leases are classified in the balance sheet and financial position under the tangible/intangible asset items which the right of use relates to; • any component relating to the provision of services included in the lease payments is not excluded

• leases previously measured as finance leases in accordance with IAS 17 have maintained the values

  • from IFRS 16;
  • previously recognised, with full continuity with the past.

Impairment of assets

At the end of each year, the Group reviews the carrying amount of its property, plant and equipment and intangible assets to determine whether any impairment of the assets has occurred. If confirmed, the recoverable amount of the assets is estimated to measure any impairment losses.

Equity investments in other companies

Equity investments in companies in which the Group does not hold control or exercise significant influence, general-ly reflecting an investment of less than 20%, are recognised at cost and subsequently measured at fair value. Chang-es in fair value are recognised through profit or loss.

Business combinations

Business combinations in which the Group obtains control of a business are recognised in accordance with IFRS 3, applying the acquisition method. In detail, identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed are recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date, that is, at the date on which control of the business was obtained, exception made for deferred tax assets and liabilities, assets and liabilities linked to employee benefits and assets held for sale, which are recognised in accordance with the applicable accounting standards. Any difference between the consideration transferred in a business combination and the fair value of assets or liabilities is recognised, if positive, as goodwill under intangible assets or, if negative, as income through other comprehensive income, after verifying the correct measurement of the current values of the acquired assets and liabilities and the consideration. If the value of the assets and liabilities of the acquired business is measured on a provisional basis, such operation must be concluded within twelve months after the acquisition date, taking into account only information that relates to facts and circumstances existing at the acquisition date. The recognised provisional values are adjusted retrospectively in the reporting period in which the aforementioned operation is concluded. Other transaction costs are recognised through other comprehensive income when they are incurred.

The consideration transferred in the business combination is equivalent to the fair value at the acquisition date of the assets transferred, the liabilities assumed and the equity instruments issued for the purpose of the acquisition, and also includes any contingent consideration, that is, any portion of the consideration whose amount and payment are dependant on future events. The contingent consideration is recognised on an Acquisition-Date Fair Value basis and any subsequent changes in fair value are recognised through other comprehensive income if the contingent consideration is a financial asset or liability. Contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.

If control is obtained in subsequent stages, the consideration transferred in the business combination is the sum of the fair value of the equity investment previously held in the acquired business and the consideration transferred for the additional equity investment. Any difference between the fair value of the equity investment previously held and its carrying amount is recognised through other comprehensive income. On obtaining control of the business, any amounts previously recognised under other comprehensive income are recognised through other comprehensive income or in another equity item if reclassification through other comprehensive income is not allowed.

Trade and other receivables

Receivables falling due within normal business terms or which accrue interest at market values are not discounted and are recognised at nominal value. Receivables assigned without recourse are derecognised from the statement of financial position insofar as all of the related risks and benefits are substantially transferred to the assignee.

Receivables from customers exclusively for services rendered are recognised when the services have been completely supplied and, thus, when the ensuing right to receive the payment arises. Financial assets other than receivables from customers are recognised at the settlement date. On initial recognition, financial assets of such type are measured at cost, equivalent to the fair value of the instrument, inclusive of directly attributable transaction costs and revenue. Receivables with a due date beyond one year, non-interest bearing or bearing interest below the market rate, are discounted at rates equivalent to the return on instruments that have comparable technical characteristics and risk/yield profiles. Following initial recognition, financial assets of this category are measured at amortised cost. The initial recognition value is therefore adjusted to take into account repayments of principal, any impairment and the amortisation of the difference between the amount repaid and the initial carrying amount. Amortisation is effected at the actual internal interest rate, which is the rate that equalises, at the time of initial recognition, the present value of the expected cash flows and the initial carrying amount (amortised cost method). Vice-versa, trade receivables are measured at historical cost and are not amortised in view of their short due date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, the asset's value is reduced to the discounted value of expected future cash flows. Impairment losses are recognised through profit or loss. The asset's value is reinstated in subsequent periods if the reasons for the impairment no longer apply, up to the value it would have had at amortised cost if no impairment had occurred.

Impairment

IFRS 9 requires the Group to recognise expected credit losses on all items such as loans and trade receivables, with reference to a period of either 12 months or the entire contractual life of the instrument (lifetime expected credit loss). The Company applies the simplified approach and therefore recognises expected losses on all trade receivables on the basis of their residual contractual life. The Group has not seen any material impacts as it does not have receivables.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and bank current accounts and demand deposits and other shortterm highly liquid financial investments that can be readily converted to cash and are not exposed to a significant risk of a change in value.

Equity

Share capital

The share capital consists of capital subscribed and paid to the Company. Costs associated exclusively with the issue of new shares are classified as a reduction of the share premium reserve, less the deferred tax effect.

Reserves

Reserves consist of equity reserves for specific uses. They also include the reserve created on the first-time adoption of the international financial reporting standards.

Retained earnings (losses)

These include earnings (losses) of previous years, specifically, the portion not distributed or set aside as reserve (in the case of profits) or not covered (in the case of losses).

Share-based payment

The Abitare In Group grants additional benefits to some executives, employees and consultants, through "Stock Grant" plans. In accordance with IFRS 2 - Share-based payment, the aforesaid transactions are to be considered of the "equity-settled" type. Therefore, the total current value of the Stock Grants at the date on which the individual and/or Group targets are assigned is recognised as a cost in the income statement. Changes in the current value after the grant date do not affect the initial measurement. Remuneration expenses, equating to the current value of shares at the grant date, are recognised as personnel expenses on a straight-line basis over the period between the grant date and the vesting date, with a balancing entry in equity.

Employee benefits

In the context of defined benefit plans, which also include the severance indemnities payable to employees pursuant to art. 2120 of the Italian Civil Code, the amount of benefits payable to employees can only be quantified after termination of employment and is linked to one or more factors, such as age, years of service and salary. Therefore, the related expense is recognised through profit or loss in the relevant period based on an actuarial calculation. The liabilities recognised for defined benefit plans are the present value of the obligation at the reporting date. Obligations for defined benefit plans are measured yearly by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit plan is established by discounting future cash flows at an interest rate equal to that of bonds (high-quality corporate) issued in Euro and that takes into account the length of the related pension plan. Actuarial gains and losses arising from such adjustments and any changes in the actuarial assumptions are recognised through other comprehensive income.

As of 1 January 2007 the Budget Law 2007 and the related implementing decrees have introduced significant changes to the way employee severance indemnities work, including the right of employees to decide who manages the severance indemnities accrued. In detail, employees can now decide to allocate new indemnities accrued to pension schemes or to let the company manage these amounts. If the amounts accrued are transferred to an outside pension scheme, the Company is only subject to the requirement to pay a defined contribution to the chosen pension scheme and, from that date, the newly accrued amounts take the form of defined contribution plans and are no longer subject to actuarial valuation.

Financial assets

The Group classifies financial assets according to the categories identified in IFRS 9:

  • financial assets measured at amortised cost.
  • assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI);
  • assets at fair value through profit or loss for the year (FVTPL).

Financial assets measured at amortised cost

This category includes the financial assets for which the following requirements have been met: i) the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset to collect the contractual cash flows; and ii) the contractual terms of the asset provide for cash flows represented solely by payments of the principal and interest on the amount of the principal to be repaid. They mainly consist of receivables from customers and loans. With the exception of trade receivables, which do not contain a significant financial component, other receivables and loans are initially recognised at their fair value. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financial component are recognised at the price defined for the related transaction (determined in accordance with IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers). At the subsequent measurement, the assets belonging to this category are measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate. Any allowance for impairment of these receivables is determined by adopting the forward-looking approach through a three-stage model: 1) recognition of the losses expected in the first 12 months at the initial recognition of the receivable, assuming that the credit risk has not increased; 2) recognition of the losses expected over the life of the receivable when the credit risk significantly increased from the initial recognition of the credit; interest is recognised as gross; 3) recognition of additional losses expected over the life of the receivable when the loss occurred; interest is recognised as net (the amortised cost is revised as the Internal Return Rate changes seeing that the cash flows changed due to the occurrence of the trigger event).

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)

This category includes the financial assets for which the following requirements have been met: i) the asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and through the sale of the asset itself; and ii) the contractual terms of the asset provide for cash flows represented solely by payments of the principal and interest on the principal to be repaid. In addition, the equity instruments (equity investments in which the Group does not exercise control or significant influence) for which the Group applies the option granted by the principle of measuring these instruments at fair value through other comprehensive profitability (see paragraph 4 above in this regard) are also classified in this category. These assets are initially recognised at fair value. At their subsequent measurement, the valuation at the time of measurement is updated and any changes in fair value are recognised in Other comprehensive income. Any impairment losses, interest income and gains or losses on exchange rate differences are recognised in Profits or loss for the year.

Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

This category includes all financial assets that do not meet the conditions, in terms of business model or cash flow characteristics, for measurement at amortised cost or at fair value through Other comprehensive income. They mainly consist of derivatives; this category also includes listed and unlisted equity instruments, which the Group has not irrevocably decided to classify as FVOCI at initial recognition or at the time of transition. Assets belonging to this category are classified as current or non-current assets according to their maturity and recognised at fair value upon initial recognition. At the time of subsequent measurement, gains and losses deriving from changes in fair value are accounted for in the consolidated income statement in the period when they are recognised.

Impairment on financial assets measured at amortised cost

The measurement of impairment losses on financial assets measured at amortised cost is carried out using a model based on the expected losses of receivables. According to this model, financial assets are classified in stage 1, stage 2 or stage 3, according to their credit quality compared to the initial disbursement.

In particular:

• Stage 1: includes i) newly acquired credit exposures, ii) exposures that have not undergone a significant deterioration in credit risk since the initial recognition date and iii) exposures with low credit

• Stage 2: includes credit exposures that, though not impaired, have suffered a significant deteriora-

  • risk.
  • tion in credit risk since the initial recognition date.

• Stage 3: includes impaired credit exposures. For exposures belonging to stage 1, the total value adjustments are equal to the expected loss calculated over a period of up to one year. For exposures belonging to stages 2 or 3, the total adjustments are equal to the expected loss calculated over a time horizon equal to the entire life of the exposure. The criteria for determining the impairment to be made to receivables are based on discounting expected cash flows by principal and interest. For the purposes of calculating the present value of the flows, the fundamental elements include the identification of the estimated collections, their collection dates and the discount rate to be applied. In particular, the amount of the loss is obtained as the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows, discounted at the original interest rate of the financial asset. These assets are classified as current assets, except for quotas maturing after more than 12 months, which are included among non-current assets

Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments are used for hedging purposes, in order to reduce the risk of variability in the interest rate. All derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value.

When the financial instruments have the characteristics to be accounted for under hedge accounting, the following accounting treatment is applied:

  • Fair value hedge If a derivative financial instrument is designated to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or liability attributable to a particular risk that may have an impact on the income statement, the gain or loss deriving from subsequent measurements of the fair value of the hedging instrument is recognised in the income statement. The gain or loss on the hedged item, attributable to the hedged risk, changes the carrying amount of this item and is recognised in the income statement.
  • Cash flow hedge If a derivative financial instrument is designated to hedge the exposure to variability in the future cash flows of an asset or liability recognised in the balance sheet or a highly probable transaction that could have an impact on the income statement, the effective portion of the gains or losses on the derivative financial instrument is recognised as a component of total profit or loss. The cumulative gain or loss is eliminated from equity and recognised in the income statement in the same period when the related economic effect of the transaction being hedged is recognised. The gain or loss associated with a hedge (or part of a hedge) that has become ineffective is recognised in the income statement.

If a hedging instrument or a hedging relationship is closed, but the hedged transaction has not yet taken place, cumulative gains and losses, up to that moment recognised in equity, are recognised in the income statement when the related transaction takes place. If the transaction being hedged is no longer considered likely, the unrealised gains or losses suspended in equity are immediately recognised in the income statement.

If hedge accounting cannot be applied, the gains or losses from the fair value measurement of the derivative financial instrument are immediately recognised in the income statement.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified, on initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, under mortgages and loans or under derivatives designated as hedging instruments. All financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value, to which directly attributable transaction costs are added in the case of loans and debt.

The Company's financial liabilities include trade payables, other payables and loans, including financial instruments and derivatives.

After initial recognition, loans are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognised through profit or loss when the liability is settled, as well as through the amortisation process.

The amortised cost is calculated by recognising the acquisition discount or premium, as well as fees and costs that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. Amortisation at the effective interest rate is recognised under financial expenses in the income statement.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation underlying the liability is settled, cancelled or fulfilled. If an outstanding financial liability is replaced with another of the same lender, at conditions that are substantially different, or where the conditions of an outstanding liability are modified substantially, such replacement or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and a new liability is recognised. Any difference in the carrying amount is recognised through profit or loss.

Provisions for risks and charges

Provisions for risks and charges are costs and charges of an established nature, the existence of which is certain or probable, but whose amount or timing is uncertain at the reporting date. Such provisions are set aside only if there is a present obligation arising from past events, whether deriving from a legal requirement, a contract or from the company's statements or actions that create a valid expectation on the part of the parties involved (obligating events).

Provisions are recognised in the financial statements when the Group has a present obligation arising from a past event and it is probable that it will be asked to fulfil the obligation.

Provisions are based on the best estimate of the costs to be incurred to fulfil the obligation at the reporting date and are discounted when the effect is material.

Income taxes

Income taxes include current and deferred taxes. Income taxes are usually recognised through profit or loss, unless they refer to transactions or events recognised directly in equity.

Income taxes are calculated by applying the tax rate applicable at the reporting date to taxable profit for the period.

Deferred taxes are measured in accordance with the liability method, based on the temporary differences between the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities and the amounts recognised for tax purposes. Deferred taxes are measured at the tax rate that is expected to apply when the asset is realised or the liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets are recognised only if it is probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be realised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable offset right and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related notes in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates due to the uncertainty surrounding the assumptions and conditions on which the estimates are based. Therefore, changes in the conditions underlying the judgments, assumptions and estimates adopted may have a material impact on subsequent results. Estimates are used to determine the fair value of investment property, financial instruments and derivative financial instruments. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically by management and, where deemed necessary, are supported by opinions and studies by independent external consultants of high standing (e.g. property appraisals) and the effects of any changes are reflected in the income statement.

Below are the most significant estimates related to the preparation of the financial statements because they involve a high reliance on subjective judgements, assumptions and estimates:

  • Valuation of work in progress and revenue recognition: the method adopted is that of the actual cost in relation to the expected cost to finish; this valuation is subject to assumptions, assumptions and estimates on the cost to finish and the related margin.
  • Taxes: income taxes, relating to non-exempt operations only, are estimated based on the forecast of the actual amount that will have to be paid to the tax authorities when filing a tax return; deferred tax assets are accounted for on the basis of income expectations for future years, taking into account the tax regime applicable to the Company, and are determined using the tax rates that are expected to be applicable in the periods in which the temporary differences will be realised or extinguished.
  • Medium- and long-term share-based incentive plans: medium- and long-term share-based incentive plans provide that at the end of each accounting period, an estimate of the number of rights that will accrue until maturity is updated. The valuation is made with the help of external experts.

New accounting standards, amendments and interpretations applicable from 1 January 2021

In May 2020, the document "Amendment to IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts - Deferral of IFRS 9" was published, which extends the expiry of the temporary exemption from the application of IFRS 9 until 2023 in order to align the effective date of IFRS 9 with the new IFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts and thus remedy the temporary accounting consequences that could occur if the two standards were to enter into force on different dates. The date of application is from 1 January 2021. The amendment had no effect on the consolidated financial statements at 30 September 2022.

In August 2020, in light of the reform on interbank interest rates such as IBOR, the IASB published the document "Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 Reform of the interest rate benchmark - Step 2" amending IAS 39, IFRS 4, IFRS 7, IFRS 9 and IFRS 16. This amendment is part of the process of reforming interbank rates, which provides for a transition to alternative reference rates. The IASB has therefore redefined the reference indices for determining interest rates in order to take account of the consequences of the reform on financial reporting. The amendment must be applied at the latest from the start of the first financial year beginning on or after 1 January 2021. The amendment had no effect on the consolidated financial statements at 30 September 2022.

On 31 March 2021, the IASB published an amendment entitled "Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021 (Amendments to IFRS 16)" which extended by one year the period of application of the amendment to IFRS 16, issued in 2020, relating to concessions to lessees, due to Covid-19. The amendments apply from 1 April 2021 with the possibility of early adoption. The amendment had no effect on the consolidated financial statements at 30 September 2022.

IFRS accounting standards, amendments and interpretations of future effectiveness

With reference to the IFRS standards, approved by the IASB and endorsed for adoption in Europe, whose mandatory effective date is after 30 September 2022, the following is noted.

Amendment to IAS 16 - Property, plant and machinery: regulates the accounting treatment of proceeds from assets before intended use. The amendment is mandatory for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2022.

Amendment to IAS 37 - Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets: deals with onerous contracts and costs of fulfilling a contract. The amendment is mandatory for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2022.

Amendment to IFRS 3 - Business Combinations: reference to the conceptual framework. The amendment is mandatory for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2022.

Annual improvements to IFRSs - 2018-2020 Cycle. Mandatory for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2022. IFRS 17 - Insurance Contracts. First application of the principle mandatory for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2023.

Amendment to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS Practice Statement 2: disclosure of accounting policies. Compulsory amendment for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2023.

Amendment to IAS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: deals with the definition of accounting estimates. Compulsory amendment for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2023.

Any impacts on the Group's consolidated financial statements arising from the aforementioned amendments are still being assessed.

The increase in development costs and other intangible assets is attributable, for an amount of Euro 715 thousand, to the investment made by the Group in the development and integration of the Corporate E-Commerce platform Abitare In, fully integrated with all corporate processes, for the sale of houses on-line and the development and integration of an on-line flat configurator. These costs relate to costs for services rendered by third parties. The development costs incurred by the Group relate to projects that meet the requirements of IAS 38.

In addition, the item 'other intangible assets' increased by Euro 204 thousand due to the recognition of the right of use pertaining to the lease contract for the new offices at Viale Umbria, 36.

Note 3. Financial assets

As of 30 September 2022, this item consisted of the financial assets arising from the mark-to-market valuation of cash flow hedge derivatives entered into by Abitare In S.p.A. and the subsidiary Porta Naviglio Grande S.r.l.

Note 4. Equity investments in other companies

The item in question is mainly represented by the shares, equal to 7.3% of the share capital, held in Tecma Solutions S.p.A., a company listed on Euronext Growth Milan, specialised in Real Estate Business Innovation for an amount of Euro 4,713 thousand.

The carrying amount increased by Euro 345 thousand as a result of the revaluation generated by the alignment of the carrying amount to the fair value at 30 September 2022 as the asset is classified as Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). The quoted value at 30 September 2022 of Euro 8.2 per share was used as the fair value benchmark.

The residual amount of Euro 3 thousand refers to shares held in Banca di Credito Cooperativo.

Note 5. Deferred tax assets and liabilities

The net balance of deferred tax assets and liabilities at 30 September 2022 is as follows.

30.09.2022 30.09.2021 Change
Deferred tax assets 2,381,742 1,172,151 1,209,591

NOTES TO THE Financial Statements

Corporate information

Abitare In S.p.A. is a joint-stock company incorporated in 2016 in Italy, registered in the Company Register of Milan, with registered office in Milan, via degli Olivetani 10/12. The Company mainly carries out real estate development activities through its subsidiaries.

Unless otherwise specified, all amounts shown in the financial statements and in the notes are in Euro. The figures shown in the financial statements and in the notes are rounded up/down to ensure consistency with the figures shown in the statement of financial position and the income statement. In its capacity as Parent Company, Abitare In has also prepared the consolidated financial statements of the Group as at 30 September 2022.

Accounting standards and measurement criteria

Basis of presentation

The separate financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2022 have been prepared in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and endorsed by the European Union, as well as the provisions implementing Art. 9 of Legislative Decree no. 38/2005. IFRS also means the International Accounting Standards ("IAS") still in force, as well as all the interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretation Committees, previously referred to as the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC") and even earlier as Standing Interpretations Committee ("SIC"). These financial statements as at 30 September 2022 are the first IFRS financial statements prepared by the Company by virtue of the translating of the Company's shares on the MTA market, STAR segment. The attachment to the financial statements "First-time application of IFRS" provides the information required by IFRS 1 and, specifically, a description of the impacts that the transition to the IFRS has had on Abitare In S.p.A.'s financial position and earnings.

The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the historical cost principle, except for the fair value measurement of certain financial instruments.

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

These separate financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2022 are authorised with resolution of the Board of Directors of 13 December 2022.

Financial Statements

The separate financial statements of Abitare In as at 30 September 2022 include the statement of financial position, the income statement, the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity, the statement of cash flows and the notes, all prepared in accordance with the IFRS.

The schedules of the statement of financial position provide a classification of current and non-current assets and current and non-current liabilities where: (i) non-current assets include positive balances with a normal

Depreciation rate
3%
30%

20%

operating cycle beyond 12 months; (ii) current assets include positive balances with a normal operating cycle within 12 months, and cash and cash equivalents; (iii) non-current liabilities include payables beyond 12 months; (iv) current liabilities include payables within 12 months.

Finally, the statement of cash flows was prepared using the indirect method to determine cash flows from operating activities. Under this method, profit (loss) for the year is adjusted to account for the effects of noncash transactions, any deferral or provision allocated for previous or future operational receipts or payments and any revenue or expense items as-sociated with cash flows from investing or financing activities. Pursuant to IFRS 8, no information is provided in relation to operating segments as this is not deemed to be material.

Statement of amounts in the consolidated financial statements and notes

Unless otherwise specified, all amounts shown in the consolidated financial statements and in the notes are in Euro. The figures shown in the financial statements and in the notes are rounded up/down to ensure consistency with the figures shown in the statement of financial position and the income statement.

Measurement criteria

Revenue recognition

Revenues from contracts with customers have defined the rules to measure and recognise revenue from contracts for the sale of goods and services. The standard provides for a five-step model for revenue recognition for an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity believes to have the right to receive in exchange for the transfer of goods or ser-vices to the customer. The scope of application of the standard consists of all revenues deriving from contracts with customers, except for those regulated by other IAS/IFRS such as leases, insurance contracts and financial instruments. The fundamental steps for recognising revenue according to IFRS 15 are:

  • identifying the contract with the customer;
  • identifying the contractual obligations;
  • determining the price;
  • allocating the price at the contractual obligations;
  • the revenue recognition criteria when the entity meets each contractual obligation.

Revenue from Abitare In S.p.A. from sales of goods and services is attributable to the provision of services. The provision of services mainly refers to technical-professional services and remuneration of royalties to subsidiaries.

Dividends

Dividends are recognised at the time when shareholders are entitled to payment, which normally corresponds to the date of the Annual Shareholders' Meeting called to resolve on the distribution of dividends.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are initially recognised at purchase or production cost, including other directly attributable costs. Interest expense linked to the construction of property, plant and equipment is capitalised and amortised over the residual useful life of the asset to which it refers.

Costs incurred after purchasing the assets and the cost of replacing some parts of this category of assets are capitalised only if they increase the expected future economic benefits of the asset they refer to. All other costs are recognised in profit or loss when incurred. If the cost of replacing some parts of the assets is capitalised, the residual value of the re-placed parts is recognised in profit or loss. If significant parts of such assets have different useful lives, such parts are recognised separately in accordance with the component approach.

Items of Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses in accordance with IAS 36. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the asset's estimated useful life for the company and reviewed yearly. Any changes, where necessary, are applied prospectively.

The following main economic-technical rates have been used:

Category Depreciation rate
Property 3%
Plant and machinery 30%
Furniture and fixtures 10%
Other assets 20%

Intangible assets

These items are initially recognised at purchase and/or production cost, including any directly attributable costs incurred to prepare the asset for use at the place and in the condition necessary for it to be able to function in the manner expected by the company management. Any interest expense accrued during and in relation to the development of other intangible assets is recognised directly through profit or loss. Production costs do not include research costs, which are recognised directly through profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

Vice-versa, development costs can be capitalised if the following conditions are satisfied: i) the project is clearly identified and the associated costs can be identified and measured reliably; ii) the technical feasibility of the project has been established; iii) there is a clear intention to complete the project and sell the intangible assets generated by the project; iv) a potential market exists or, in the case of internal use, the usefulness of the intangible asset has been established for the pro-duction of the intangible assets generated by the project; v) adequate technical and financial resources to complete the project are available.

Intangible assets acquired through business combinations are recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date if such value can be measured reliably. Software licences purchased are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to purchase them and prepare them for use. Amortisation is on a straight-line basis over the asset's estimated useful life. Intangible assets with a finite useful life are stated less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, to be calculated in accordance with the methods described in the following Section.

The following main economic-technical rates have been used:

Category Depreciation rates
Development costs 20%
Other assets 20%

Leases

Starting from 1 January 2019, leases are treated in accordance with IFRS 16, which provides a new definition of lease and introduces a criterion based on the control (right of use) of an asset to distinguish leases from service contracts, identifying as the distinguishing features: the identification of the asset, the right to replace the asset, the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from using the asset and the right to direct the use of the asset underlying the contract.

The standard establishes a single model to recognise and measure leases for the lessee, which requires the recognition of the leased asset, including operating, under assets with a financial liability as balancing entry while also providing the option of not recognising under leases those contracts that relate to low-value assets and the leases with a duration of the contract of 12 months or less.

Based on the provisions of IFRS 16, the accounting representation of the leases payable (which is not the provision of ser-vices) takes place through recognising a financial liability in the balance sheet, represented by the current value of the lease payments due for recognising the right of use of the leased business as an asset. Lease payments include fixed payments, net of any incentives to be received, variable payments that depend on an index or rate, initially valued by using the values at the start of the contract, and the exercise price of any purchase option if the Company and/or the Group are reasonably certain of exercising it. The liability calculated in this way is subsequently adjusted over the lease term to reflect the payment of interest on the debt and repayment of the principal amount and may also be remeasured (with a corresponding adjustment to the corresponding right of use) if there is a change in future payments, in the event of renegotiation/amendment of the contractual agreements, or in the event of a change in the case of exercising purchase options. Whereas the right to use the leased asset is amortised over the term of the contract. Therefore, under IFRS 16 lessees are no longer required to distinguish between finance leases and operating leases.

With reference to options:

  • the rights of use and the financial liabilities associated with leases are classified in the balance sheet and financial position under the tangible/intangible asset items which the right of use relates to;
  • any component relating to the provision of services included in the lease payments is not excluded from IFRS 16;
  • leases previously measured as finance leases in accordance with IAS 17 have maintained the values previously recognised, with full continuity with the past.

Impairment of assets

At the end of each year, the Group reviews the carrying amount of its property, plant and equipment and intangible assets to determine whether any impairment of the assets has occurred. If confirmed, the recoverable amount of the assets is estimated to measure any impairment losses.

Equity investments in subsidiaries

Equity investments in subsidiaries are recognised at the cost adjusted in the presence of impairment losses. These impairment losses are quantified on the basis of the recoverable amount determined with reference to the cash flows that the investee company will be able to produce prospectively. The positive difference, emerging at the time of purchase, be-tween the acquisition cost and the share of shareholders' equity at the current value of the investee pertaining to the company is, therefore, included in the carrying amount of the equity investment. Any impairment of this positive difference shall not be reversed in subsequent periods even if the conditions that had led to the impairment cease to apply. If any portion of the Company's losses in the investee exceeds the carrying amount of the equity investment, the equity in-vestment is zeroed, and the amount of the additional losses is recognised as a provision under liabilities if the Company is obliged to meet them. Any financial receivables that constitute medium/long-term interests in investees, whether they are subsidiaries, joint ventures and/or associates, are classified and measured in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 9, including, where significant, the application of the expected loss model to measure any impairment losses.

Equity investments in other companies

Equity investments in companies in which the Group does not hold control or exercise significant influence, generally reflecting an investment of less than 20%, are recognised at cost and subsequently measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognised through profit or loss.

Trade and other receivables

Receivables falling due within normal business terms or which accrue interest at market values are not discounted and are recognised at nominal value. Receivables assigned without recourse are derecognised from the statement of financial position insofar as all of the related risks and benefits are substantially transferred to the assignee.

Receivables from customers exclusively for services rendered are recognised when the services have been completely supplied and, thus, when the ensuing right to receive the payment arises. Financial assets other than receivables from customers are recognised at the settlement date. On initial recognition, financial assets of such type are measured at cost, equivalent to the fair value of the instrument, inclusive of directly attributable transaction costs and revenue. Receivables with a due date beyond one year, non-interest bearing or bearing interest below the market rate, are discounted at rates equivalent to the return on instruments that have comparable technical characteristics and risk/yield profiles. Following initial recognition, financial assets of this category are measured at amortised cost. The initial recognition value is there-fore adjusted

to take into account repayments of principal, any impairment and the amortisation of the difference between the amount repaid and the initial carrying amount. Amortisation is effected at the actual internal interest rate, which is the rate that equalises, at the time of initial recognition, the present value of the expected cash flows and the initial carrying amount (amortised cost method). Vice-versa, trade receivables are measured at historical cost and are not amortised in view of their short due date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, the asset's value is reduced to the discounted value of expected future cash flows. Impairment losses are recognised through profit or loss. The asset's value is reinstated in subsequent periods if the reasons for the impairment no longer apply, up to the value it would have had at amortised cost if no impairment had occurred.

Impairment

IFRS 9 requires the Group to recognise expected credit losses on all items such as loans and trade receivables, with reference to a period of either 12 months or the entire contractual life of the instrument (lifetime expected credit loss). The Company applies the simplified approach and therefore recognises expected losses on all trade receivables on the basis of their residual contractual life. The Group has not seen any material impacts as it does not have receivables.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and bank current accounts and demand deposits and other shortterm highly liquid financial investments that can be readily converted to cash and are not exposed to a significant risk of a change in value.

Equity

Share capital

The share capital consists of capital subscribed and paid to the Company. Costs associated exclusively with the issue of new shares are classified as a reduction of the share premium reserve, less the deferred tax effect.

Reserves

Reserves consist of equity reserves for specific uses. They also include the reserve created on the first-time adoption of the international financial reporting standards. Retained earnings (losses). These include earnings (losses) of previous years, specifically, the portion not distributed or set aside as reserve (in the case of profits) or not covered (in the case of losses).

Share-based payment

The Abitare In Group grants additional benefits to some executives, employees and consultants, through "Stock Grant" plans. In accordance with IFRS 2 - Share-based payment, the aforesaid transactions are to be considered of the "equity-settled" type. Therefore, the total current value of the Stock Grants at the date on which the individual and/or Group targets are assigned is recognised as a cost in the income statement. Changes in the current value after the grant date do not affect the initial measurement. Remuneration expenses, equating to the current value of shares at the grant date, are recognised as personnel expenses on a straight-line basis over the period between the grant date and the vesting date, with a balancing entry in equity.

Employee benefits

In the context of defined benefit plans, which also include the severance indemnities payable to employees pursuant to art. 2120 of the Italian Civil Code, the amount of benefits payable to employees can only be quantified after termination of employment and is linked to one or more factors, such as age, years of service and salary. Therefore, the related expense is recognised through profit or loss in the relevant period based on an actuarial calculation. The liabilities recognised for defined benefit plans are the present value of the obligation at the reporting date. Obligations for defined benefit plans are measured yearly by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit plan is established by discounting future cash flows at an interest rate equal to that of bonds (high-quality corporate) issued in Euro and that takes into account the length of the related pension plan. Actuarial gains and losses arising from such adjustments and any changes in the actuarial assumptions are recognised through other comprehensive income.

As of 1 January 2007 the Budget Law 2007 and the related implementing decrees have introduced significant changes to the way employee severance indemnities work, including the right of employees to decide who manages the severance indemnities accrued. In detail, employees can now decide to allocate new indemnities accrued to pension schemes or to let the company manage these amounts. If the amounts accrued are transferred to an outside pension scheme, the Company is only subject to the requirement to pay a defined contribution to the chosen pension scheme and, from that date, the newly accrued amounts take the form of defined contribution plans and are no longer subject to actuarial valuation.

Financial assets

The Group classifies financial assets according to the categories identified in IFRS 9:

  • financial assets measured at amortised cost.
  • assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI);
  • assets at fair value through profit or loss for the year (FVTPL).

Financial assets measured at amortised cost

This category includes the financial assets for which the following requirements have been met: i) the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset to collect the contractual cash flows; and ii) the contractual terms of the asset provide for cash flows represented solely by payments of the principal and interest on the amount of the principal to be repaid. They mainly consist of receivables from customers and loans. With the exception of trade receivables, which do not contain a significant financial component, other receivables and loans are initially recognised at their fair value. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financial component are recognised at the price defined for the related transaction (determined in accordance with IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers). At the subsequent measurement, the assets belonging to this category are measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate. Any allowance for impairment of these receivables is determined by adopting the forward-looking approach through a three-stage model: 1) recognition of the losses expected in the first 12 months at the initial recognition of the receivable, assuming that the credit risk has not increased; 2) recognition of the losses expected over the life of the receivable when the credit risk significantly increased from the initial recognition of the credit; interest is recognised as gross; 3) recognition of additional losses expected over the life of the receivable when the loss occurred; interest is recognised as net (the amortised cost is revised as the Internal Return Rate changes seeing that the cash flows changed due to the occurrence of the trigger event).

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)

This category includes the financial assets for which the following requirements have been met: i) the asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and through the sale of the asset it-self; and ii) the contractual terms of the asset provide for cash flows represented solely by payments of the principal and interest on the principal to be repaid. In addition, the equity instruments (equity investments in which the Group does not exercise control or significant influence) for which the Group applies the option granted by the principle of measuring these instruments at fair value through other comprehensive profitability (see paragraph 4 above in this regard) are also classified in this category. These assets are initially recognised at fair value. At their subsequent measurement, the valuation at the time of measurement is updated and any changes in fair value are recognised in Other comprehensive income. Any impairment losses, interest income and gains or losses on exchange rate differences are recognised in Profits or loss for the year.

Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

This category includes all financial assets that do not meet the conditions, in terms of business model or cash flow characteristics, for measurement at amortised cost or at fair value through Other comprehensive income. They mainly consist of derivatives; this category also includes listed and unlisted equity instruments, which the Group has not irrevocably decided to classify as FVOCI at initial recognition or at the time of transition. Assets belonging to this category are classified as current or non-current assets according to their maturity and recognised at fair value upon initial recognition. At the time of subsequent measurement, gains and losses deriving from changes in fair value are accounted for in the consolidated in-come statement in the period when they are recognised.

Impairment on financial assets measured at amortised cost

The measurement of impairment losses on financial assets measured at amortised cost is carried out using a model based on the expected losses of receivables. According to this model, financial assets are classified in stage 1, stage 2 or stage 3, according to their credit quality compared to the initial disbursement. In particular:

• Stage 1: includes i) newly acquired credit exposures, ii) exposures that have not undergone a significant deterioration in credit risk since the initial recognition date and iii) exposures with low credit

• Stage 2: includes credit exposures that, though not impaired, have suffered a significant deteriora-

  • risk.
  • tion in credit risk since the initial recognition date.
  • months, which are included among non-current assets.

• Stage 3: includes impaired credit exposures. For exposures belonging to stage 1, the total value adjustments are equal to the expected loss calculated over a period of up to one year. For exposures belonging to stages 2 or 3, the total adjustments are equal to the expected loss calculated over a time horizon equal to the entire life of the exposure. The criteria for determining the impairment to be made to receivables are based on discounting expected cash flows by principal and interest. For the purposes of calculating the present value of the flows, the fundamental elements include the identification of the estimated collections, their collection dates and the discount rate to be applied. In particular, the amount of the loss is obtained as the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows, discounted at the original interest rate of the financial asset. These assets are classified as current assets, except for quotas maturing after more than 12

Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments are used for hedging purposes, in order to reduce the risk of variability in the interest rate. All derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value. When the financial instruments have the characteristics to be accounted for under hedge accounting, the following ac-counting treatment is applied:

• Fair value hedge - If a derivative financial instrument is designated to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or liability attributable to a particular risk that may have an impact on the income statement, the gain or loss deriving from subsequent measurements of the fair value of the hedging instrument is recognised in the income statement. The gain or loss on the hedged item, attributable to the hedged risk, changes the carrying amount of this item and is recognised in the

• Cash flow hedge - If a derivative financial instrument is designated to hedge the exposure to variability in the future cash flows of an asset or liability recognised in the balance sheet or a highly probable transaction that could have an impact on the income statement, the effective portion of the gains or losses on the derivative financial instrument is recognised as a component of total profit or loss. The cumulative gain or loss is eliminated from equity and recognised in the income statement in the same period when the related economic effect of the transaction being hedged is recognised. The gain or loss associated with a hedge (or part of a hedge) that has become ineffective is recog-

  • income statement.
  • nised in the income statement.

If a hedging instrument or a hedging relationship is closed, but the hedged transaction has not yet taken place, cumulative gains and losses, up to that moment recognised in equity, are recognised in the income statement when the related trans-action takes place. If the transaction being hedged is no longer considered likely, the unrealised gains or losses suspended in equity are immediately recognised in the income statement.

If hedge accounting cannot be applied, the gains or losses from the fair value measurement of the derivative financial instrument are immediately recognised in the income statement.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified, on initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, under mortgages and loans or under derivatives designated as hedging instruments. All financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value, to which directly attributable transaction costs are added in the case of loans and debt.

The Company's financial liabilities include trade payables, other payables and loans, including financial instruments and derivatives.

After initial recognition, loans are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognised through profit or loss when the liability is settled, as well as through the amortisation process.

The amortised cost is calculated by recognising the acquisition discount or premium, as well as fees and costs that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. Amortisation at the effective interest rate is recognised under financial expenses in the income statement.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation underlying the liability is settled, cancelled or fulfilled. If an out-standing financial liability is replaced with another of the same lender, at conditions that are substantially different, or where the conditions of an outstanding liability are modified substantially, such replacement or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and a new liability is recognised. Any difference in the carrying amount is recognised through profit or loss.

Provisions for risks and charges

Provisions for risks and charges are costs and charges of an established nature, the existence of which is certain or probable, but whose amount or timing is uncertain at the reporting date. Such provisions are set aside only if there is a present obligation arising from past events, whether deriving from a legal requirement, a contract or from the company's statements or actions that create a valid expectation on the part of the parties involved (obligating events).

Provisions are recognised in the financial statements when the company has a present obligation arising from a past event and it is probable that it will be asked to fulfil the obligation.

Provisions are based on the best estimate of the costs to be incurred to fulfil the obligation at the reporting date and are discounted when the effect is material.

Income taxes

Income taxes include current and deferred taxes. Income taxes are usually recognised through profit or loss, unless they refer to transactions or events recognised directly in equity.

Income taxes are calculated by applying the tax rate applicable at the reporting date to taxable profit for the period.

Deferred taxes are measured in accordance with the liability method, based on the temporary differences between the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities and the amounts recognised for tax purposes. Deferred taxes are measured at the tax rate that is expected to apply when the asset is realised or the liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets are recognised only if it is probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be realised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable offset right and when they relate to in-come taxes levied by the same taxation authority.

Use of estimates

In preparing the financial statements and the related notes in accordance with the IFRS, the management is required to make estimates and assumptions that have an impact on the value of revenue, costs, assets and liabilities in the financial statements and on disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the reporting date. The final figures may differ from these estimates due to the uncertainty underlying the assumptions and the conditions on which the estimates are based. Consequently, any change in the conditions underlying the associated opinions, assumptions and estimates could have a significant impact on subsequent performance. Estimates are used to determine the fair value of real estate investments, financial instruments and derivatives. The management reviews the estimates and assumptions periodically and, if necessary, these are backed by opinions and studies of independent consultants of primary standing (e.g. property appraisal). The effects of any changes are reflected in the income statement.

The following estimates used in the financial statements are deemed significant in that they involve extensive use of subjective opinions, assumptions and estimates:

• Taxes: income taxes, related only to non-exempt operations, are estimated on the basis of the forecast of the actual amount that will be payable to the Revenue Agency in the annual tax return. Prepaid taxes are recognised on the basis of income forecasts for the coming years, taking into account the tax regime applicable to the Company, and are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to

• Assessment of the progress of works and recognition of revenue: the method used is that of final cost based on the estimated cost to complete; this measurement is based on assumptions and esti-

  • apply in the reporting periods in which the temporary differences will be realised or settled.
  • mates of the costs to complete and the related margin.
  • made with the help of external experts.

• Medium/long-term share-based incentive plans: these plans provide that the estimated number of rights accruing up to maturity is updated at the end of each reporting period. The measurement is

New accounting standards, amendments and interpretations applicable from 1 January 2021

In May 2020, the document "Amendment to IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts - Deferral of IFRS 9" was published, which extends the expiry of the temporary exemption from the application of IFRS 9 until 2023 in order to align the effective date of IFRS 9 with the new IFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts and thus remedy the temporary accounting consequences that could occur if the two standards were to enter into force on different dates. The date of application is from 1 January 2021. The amendment had no effect on the financial statements at 30 September 2022.

In August 2020, in light of the reform on interbank interest rates such as IBOR, the IASB published the document "Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 Reform of the interest rate benchmark - Step 2" amending IAS 39, IFRS 4, IFRS 7, IFRS 9 and IFRS 16. This amendment is part of the process of reforming interbank rates, which provides for a transition to alternative reference rates. The IASB has therefore redefined the reference indices for determining interest rates in order to take account of the consequences of the reform on financial reporting. The amendment must be applied at the latest from the start of the first financial year beginning on or after 1 January 2021. The amendment had no effect on the financial statements at 30 September 2022.

On 31 March 2021, the IASB published an amendment entitled "Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021 (Amendments to IFRS 16)" which extended by one year the period of application of the amendment to IFRS 16, issued in 2020, relating to concessions to lessees, due to Covid-19. The amendments apply from 1 April 2021 with the possibility of early adoption. The amendment had no effect on the financial statements at 30 September 2022.

IFRS accounting standards, amendments and interpretations of future effectiveness

With reference to the IFRS standards, approved by the IASB and endorsed for adoption in Europe, whose mandatory effective date is after 30 September 2022, the following is noted.

Amendment to IAS 16 - Property, plant and machinery: regulates the accounting treatment of proceeds from assets before intended use. The amendment is mandatory for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2022.

Amendment to IAS 37 - Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets: deals with onerous contracts and costs of fulfilling a contract. The amendment is mandatory for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2022.

Amendment to IFRS 3 - Business Combinations: reference to the conceptual framework. The amendment is mandatory for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2022.

Annual improvements to IFRSs - 2018-2020 Cycle. Mandatory for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2022. IFRS 17 - Insurance Contracts. First application of the principle mandatory for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2023.

Amendment to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS Practice Statement 2: disclosure of accounting policies. Compulsory amendment for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2023. Amendment to IAS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: deals with the definition of accounting estimates. Compulsory amendment for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2023.

Any impacts on the financial statements arising from the aforementioned amendments are still being assessed.

The increase in development costs and other intangible assets is attributable, in the amount of Euro 715 thousand, to the investment made by the company in relation to the development and integration of the Corporate Abitare In E-Commerce platform, fully integrated with all business processes, aimed at the sale of houses online and the development and integration of an online apartment configurator. These costs refer to services supplied by third parties. Development costs incurred by the Group refer to projects that satisfy the requirements of IAS 38.

In addition, the item "other intangible assets" increased by Euro 204 thousand due to the registration ofthe right of use pertaining to the lease agreement for the new offices at Viale Umbria, 36.

With reference to the shareholdings, the book value of the shareholding in Abitare In Maggiolina S.r.l. was adjusted by Euro 500 thousand. This adjustment of the book value is strictly related to the financial income deriving from the dividend distributed by the subsidiary in the amount of Euro 3,900 thousand. Negative differences between the value of the equity investment and the net worth attributable to it do not represent impairment losses, as the value of equity investments and financial beliefs are deemed recoverable from the expected cash flows resulting from the completion of projects.

Note 3.2 Equity investments in other companies

The composition and movements of this group of entries are as follows:

Total 4,370,694 344,820 4,715,514

The item in question is mainly represented by the shares held in Tecma Solutions S.p.A. (7.3% of the share capital), a company listed on the Euronext Growth Milan, specialised in Real Estate Business Innovation for an amount equal to Euro 4,713 thousand.

The carrying amount increased by Euro 345 thousand due to the revaluation generated by the alignment of the carrying amount to fair value at 30 September 2022 as the asset is classified as Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). The quoted value at 30 September 2022 of EUR 8.2 per share was used as the fair value benchmark.

The residual amount of Euro 3 thousand relates to shareholdings held in Banca di Credito Cooperativo.

Information on the carrying amount and fair value of financial instruments

IFRS 7 and IFRS 13 require that financial instruments measured at fair value are classified on the basis of the quality of the inputs used to determine their fair value. More specifically, IFRS 7 and IFRS 13 provide for 3 fair value levels:

  • level 1: financial assets and liabilities whose fair value is determined on the basis of quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets (regulated and over the counter) for identical assets or liabilities;
  • level 2: financial assets and liabilities whose fair value is determined on the basis of inputs other than the quoted prices in level 1, but which, for such assets and liabilities, are directly or indirectly observable on the market;
  • level 3: financial assets and liabilities whose fair value is determined on the basis of unobservable market data. This category includes instruments measured on the basis of internal estimates using proprietary methods in accordance with sector-specific best practices.

No transfers between the different levels of the fair value hierarchy were made in the relevant periods.

The table below provides a summary of assets and liabilities measured at fair value at 30 September 2022, based on the level that reflects the inputs used to determine their fair value:
