Disclaimer

This report contains forward looking statements ("Outlook") relating to future events and the Amplifon Group's operating, economic and financial results. These forecasts, by definition, contain elements of risk and uncertainty, insofar as they are linked to the occurrence of future events and developments. The actual results may be very different with respect to the original forecast due to several factors, the majority of which are out of the Group's control.

PREFACE

This Interim Financial Report as at 31 March 2025 was prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) endorsed by the European Union and should be read together with the Group's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2024 that includes additional information on the risks and uncertainties that could impact the Group's operating results or its financial position.

Starting from the first quarter of 2025, in order to facilitate the understanding of the Group's economic-financial performance and in line with market practice, a change was made to the representation of the Alternative Performance Measures (APM) used by the top management to monitor the Group's economic, financial and operating performance. Beginning with the quarterly report as at 31 March 2025, the Group will report certain indicators as "adjusted" in order to present the Group's operating performance net of items (income and expenses) that are unusual, infrequent or not related to the operating performance. This will allow an analysis of the strictly operational performance of the Group. The Group also determined the same indicators for the comparison period in the same way.

For more information on the Alternative Performance Measures identified by the Group and the way the latter are determined, please refer to the section "Alternative Performance Measures" in this Interim Financial Report.

The main economic and financial indicators used by top management to monitor the Group's economic and financial performance as alternatives to the indicators defined or specified in the applicable financial reporting framework are reported in this section. In order to facilitate understanding of the Group's economic and financial performance, the directors identified certain Alternative Performance Measures (APMs). The following information is provided with a view to a correct interpretation of these APMs:

  • the APMs are built based on historical data and are not indicative of the Group's future performance. More specifically, they are taken from the Group's consolidated financial statements;
  • where applicable, the APMs are determined in accordance with the ESMA Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures of 5 October 2015 (2015/1415) as per CONSOB Notice n. 92543 of 3 December 2015, the ESMA Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures (APMs) of 17 April 2020 and Section 3 of ESMA's "European common enforcement priorities for 2022 annual financial reports of 28 October 2022";
  • the APMs are not regulated by the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) applied by the Group and, while based on the Group's consolidated financial statements, they are not subject to any audits or limited review by the external auditors;
  • the APMs should not be viewed as substitutes for the indicators called for under the IFRS;
  • the financial information included in the Group's consolidated financial statements should be taken into account when making any interpretations of these APMs;
  • as the APMs used by the Group are not based on specific accounting standards, they could differ from those used by other groups and, therefore, are not comparable;
  • the APMs used by the Group are consistent across all the reporting periods for which financial information is provided in this document.

This document contains certain indicators defined as "Adjusted", in order to represent the Group's operating performance net of unusual, infrequent or unrelated elements (income or expenses) and thus allow an analysis of the Group's strictly operating performance.

These "Adjusted" components can be grouped into the following categories, as identified by the top management:

    1. Transaction and integration costs for acquisitions and changes (positive or negative) in earn-out;
    1. Costs related to corporate and network restructuring, as well as other efficiency projects;
    1. Gain and loss on disposal of assets and/or businesses, write-off and revaluation of fixed assets;
    1. Amortization of fixed assets accounted in phase of Purchase Price Allocation;
    1. Financial income (loss) related to inflation accounting (IAS 29) and Fair Value changes resulting from modifications and/or non-cash accretion of financial liabilities (IFRS 9);
    1. Other unusual, infrequent or unrelated income and expenses above an amount of €1m in a quarter, or above €2m across multiple quarters.

The Alternative Performance Measures identified by the Group can be defined as follows:

  • Gross operating profit (EBITDA) represents the Net profit (loss) attributable to the Group adjusted by: i) current and deferred income taxes; ii) financial income, expenses and value adjustments to financial assets; iii) amortization, depreciation and impairment.
  • Gross operating profit (EBITDA) Adjusted represents the Net profit (loss) attributable to the Group adjusted by: i) current and deferred income taxes; ii) financial income, expenses and value adjustments to financial assets; iii) amortization, depreciation and impairment; iv) items (income and expenses) that are unusual, infrequent or not related to the operating performance.

Consolidated revenues from sales and services amounted to €587,790 thousand in the first three months of 2025, an increase of €14,681 thousand (+2.6%) with respect to the comparison period, attributable largely to acquisitions which contributed €14,047 thousand (+2.5%). Organic growth contributed €497 thousand (+0.1%). The foreign exchange effect was marginal, with the positive impact recorded in Americas offset by the negative effect reported in APAC.

Despite a weak market, there was a significant increase in revenues in the Americas, while Europe, though up overall, was still soft. APAC, which was impacted primarily by the weakness of the New Zealand and Australian dollars, made a positive contribution to organic growth thanks to the good performance of the Australian subsidiaries.

Consolidated revenues from sales and services amounted to €383,564 thousand in the first three months of 2025, an increase of €7,506 thousand (+2.0%) compared to the same period of the prior year.

The increase is attributable to acquisitions which contributed €9,981 thousand (+2.7%), among them stands out the first-time consolidation of the Polish subsidiary Amplifon Aparaty Słuchowe Sp.zo.o. purchased at the beginning of March. Organic performance, impacted by what was overall a soft European market, was in line with expectations and had a negative impact on the European market of €2,669 thousand (-0.7%). The foreign exchange effect was slightly positive at €194 thousand.

Consolidated revenues from sales and services amounted to €118,439 thousand in the first three months of 2025, an increase of €7,618 thousand (+6.9%).

This increase is explained for €2,766 thousand (+2.5%) by strong organic growth which, despite a soft market, was fueled primarily by the outstanding performance of Miracle-Ear Direct Retail and Amplifon Hearing Health Care. Acquisitions contributed €3,499 thousand (+3.2%) and the foreign exchange effect, which was positive for €1,353 thousand (+1.2%) due mainly to the strengthening of the US dollar, compared to the average value in the first quarter of 2024.

Revenues of the Argentine subsidiary reflect the high inflation accounting used in accordance with IAS 29 (Inflation Accounting), which had a positive impact on the Group's organic growth of 0.1%.

Revenues from sales and services amounted to €85,787 thousand in the first three months of 2025, a decrease of €377 thousand (-0.4%) compared to the same period of 2024.

This change is explained primarily by the foreign exchange differences which had a negative impact of €1,410 thousand (-1.6%) due to the weakening of the New Zealand and Australian dollars. The contribution of acquisitions was, overall, positive at €567 thousand (+0.7%): the acquisitions made in China contributed €1,747 thousand (+2.0%) which was partially offset by the sale of the Chinese subsidiary Hangzhou Amplifon Hearing Aid Co. Ltd.'s indirect channels whose impact of €1,180 thousand (-1.3%) is reported as a reduction in external growth. Organic growth was positive for €466 thousand (+0.5%).

(*) Net financial indebtedness excluding lease liabilities/EBITDA for the covenant calculation is the ratio of net financial indebtedness, excluding lease liabilities and short-term investments not cash equivalents, to EBITDA for the last four quarters (determined with reference to recurring operations only, based on pro forma figures in case of significant changes to the structure of the Group).

Excluding lease liabilities, net financial debt amounted to €996,585 thousand at 31 March 2025, an increase of €34,780 thousand compared to 31 December 2024. In the first quarter of 2025 free cash flow was positive for €18,477 thousand (€37,214 thousand at 31 March 2024) after absorbing capital expenditure of €31,554 thousand (€29,941 thousand in the comparison period). Net cash-outs for acquisitions (which amounted to €40,972 thousand versus €71,310 thousand in the first quarter of 2024), along with the €8,812 thousand in outflows related to the purchase of treasury shares and other financial assets, bring cash flow for the reporting period to negative €31,307 thousand versus a negative €28,198 thousand in the first quarter of 2024.

During the reporting period and in April 2025 Amplifon finalized a series of transactions based on which the Group will not be subject to any financial covenants at the next reporting date (in June 2025). More in detail:

  • In March 2025, Amplifon S.p.A. signed a 5-year, sustainability linked, credit facility with Intesa Sanpaolo totaling €175 million, comprised of a €100 million revolving credit line and €75 million term loan. The new financing was used to refinance, and increase, a preexisting line expiring in 2026, subject to financial covenants. The new credit facility is not, however, subject to financial covenants;
  • In April 2025, Amplifon S.p.A. finalized another refinancing transaction with Banco BPM, which is also sustainability-linked, for a total of €100 million, comprised of a €50 million, 5-year revolving credit line and a €50 million, 5-year term loan. This transaction is also not subject to financial covenants;

• In April 2025 two committed, revolving credit lines, totaling €45 million, granted by Sparkasse and Barclays, expiring in the second half of 2025, were extinguished, in advance. Both of these credit lines were subject to financial covenants.

The remaining lines, subject to financial covenants, will expire in the second quarter of 2025.

At 31 March 2025, the Group had cash and cash equivalents, as well as other liquid investments, of €261,383 thousand compared to total net financial indebtedness of €1,258 million, net of lease liabilities.

Long-term debt, net of lease liabilities, amounts to €969,920 thousand at 31 March 2025 (€ 960,386 thousand at 31 December 2024), showing an increase of €9,534 thousand compared to 2024 explained by the new financing agreements signed in the reporting period.

Short-term debt amounts to €288,048 thousand, a decrease of €2,205 thousand compared to the €290,253 thousand recorded at 31 December 2024. The short-term portion refers primarily to: the short-term portion of long-term bank debt (€134,897 thousand); bank borrowings linked to hot money accounts and other short-term credit lines (€134,153 thousand); the interest payable on the Eurobond (€496 thousand) and other bank loans (€5,258 thousand), as well as the best estimate of the deferred payments for acquisitions (€12,958 thousand).

The chart below shows the debt maturities compared to:

  • the €261 million in cash and cash equivalents;
  • the unutilized portions of irrevocable credit lines which amount to €495 million;
  • the €225 million unutilized portion of the loan from the European Investment Bank supporting investments in innovation and digitalization.

The unutilized portion of the €347 million in uncommitted credit lines which amounted to €216 million as at 31 March 2025.

Interest payable on financial debt amounted to €9,771 thousand as at 31 March 2025 versus €9,616 thousand as at 31 March 2024.

Interest payable on leases recognized in accordance with IFRS 16 amounted to €5,155 thousand versus €4,451 thousand as at 31 March 2024.

Interest receivable on bank deposits came to €1,082 thousand as at 31 March 2025 versus €454 thousand as at 31 March 2024.

(*) The item refers to the net cash flows used in the acquisition of businesses and equity investments.

The change in net financial indebtedness of €31,307 thousand is attributable to:

  • (i) Investing activities:
    • capital expenditure on property, plant and equipment and intangible assets of €31,593 thousand relating to new Front-Office solutions, network expansion and to ongoing implementation, standardization and homogenization of the Group cloud based ERP system;
    • acquisitions amounting to €40,972 thousand including the impact of the acquired companies debt and the best estimate of the earn-out linked to sales and profitability targets payable over the next few years;
    • net proceeds from the disposal of assets of €39 thousand.
  • (ii) Operating activities:
    • interest payable on financial indebtedness and other net financial expenses of €13,628 thousand;
    • payment of taxes amounting to €14,570 thousand;
    • payment of principle on lease obligations of €33,831 thousand;
    • cash flow generated by current operations of €112,060 thousand.
  • (iii) Financing activities:
    • purchase of €8,164 thousand in treasury shares;
    • payment of commissions on medium/long term financing of €613 thousand;
    • negative change in other non-current assets for €35 thousand.
  • (iv) Net debt was also impacted by:
    • exchange losses of €3,399 thousand;
    • discontinued operations of negative €74 thousand.

Items (income and expenses) that are unusual, infrequent or not related to the operating performance negative impacted on cash flow of €2,085 thousand in the first three months of 2025, attributable for €1,085 related to transaction and integration costs for acquisitions and changes (positive or negative) in earn-out and €1.000 thousand related to costs relative to corporate and network restructuring, as well as other efficiency projects.

ACQUISITION OF COMPANIES AND BUSINESSES

The Group continued with external growth in the first months of 2025 acquiring 195 clinics for a total investment of €40,972 thousand, including the debt consolidated and the best estimate of the earn-out linked to sales and profitability targets payable over the next few years.

More in details, in the first quarter of 2025:

  • 122 clinics were acquired in Poland;
  • 27 clinics were acquired in Italy;
  • 22 clinics were acquired in China;
  • 11 clinics were acquired in Germany;
  • 10 clinics were acquired in France;
  • 2 clinics were acquired in Canada.
  • 1 clinic was acquired in Spain.

OUTLOOK

In the first quarter of 2025, the Group recorded profitable growth despite fewer trading days, a very strong comparison base, a soft US market and a European market which, although in line with expectations, did not show a material improvement compared to the fourth quarter of 2024.

For the rest of 2025, the Group expects an acceleration in revenue growth thanks to the anticipated strong growth of the French market from the second quarter onwards, confirmed by the current trials activation trend, and a gradual normalization of the other European countries.

For the rest of 2025, the Group expects an acceleration in revenue growth thanks to the anticipated strong growth of the French market from the second quarter onwards, confirmed by the current trials activation trend, and a gradual normalization of the other European countries. For the remainder of the year, the Group expects an improvement in the US market also supported by the more favorable comparison base at market level.

In light of the above and assuming there are no further slowdowns in global economic activity due to, among others, the well-known macroeconomic and the geopolitical situation, for 2025 the Group confirms the outlook previously disclosed to the market:

  • Consolidated revenues to grow mid to high single-digit at constant exchange rates;
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin of at least 24%.

In the medium term, the Group remains extremely positive on its prospects for sustainable growth in sales and profitability, thanks to the secular fundamentals of the hearing care market and its even stronger competitive positioning.

NOTES

1. General Information

The Amplifon Group is global leader in the distribution of hearing solutions and the fitting of customized products.

The parent company, Amplifon S.p.A. is based in Via Ripamonti 133, Milan, Italy. The Group is controlled directly by Ampliter S.r.l. (42.01% of share capital and 59.09% of voting rights as at 31 March 2025), held by Amplifin S.r.l at 100%, which is owned at 88% by Susan Carol Holland.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as at 31 March 2025 was prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards, as well as the implementation regulations set out in Article 9 of Legislative Decree no. 38 of 28 February 2005. These standards include the IAS and IFRS issued by the International Accounting Standard Board, as well as the SIC and IFRIC interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee, which were endorsed in accordance with the procedure set out in Article 6 of Regulation (EC) no. 1606 of 19 July 2002 by 31 March 2025. The International Accounting Standards endorsed after that date and before the preparation of this report were adopted in the preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial report only if early adoption is allowed by the Endorsing Regulation and the standard itself and if the Group had elected to do so.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements on 31 March 2025 does not include all the additional information required by the annual financial statements and must be read together with the annual consolidated financial statements of the Group on 31 December 2024.

The publication of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Amplifon Group on 31 March 2025 was authorized by a resolution of the Board of Directors of 6 May 2025 which approved their publication.

According to the Consob Communication of 28 July 2006, it is specified that during the first three months of 2025 the Group did not carry out atypical and/or unusual transactions, as defined by the Communication itself.

2. Impacts of trade tariffs, conflict in Middle-East, Ukraine and climate change on the Group's performance and financial position

The current macroeconomic and geopolitical backdrop, influenced by conflicts and recent developments related to the tariffs imposed by the United States which could impact a few of the Group's providers, continues to be characterized by uncertainty and volatility. Toward this end Amplifon continues to monitor changes in the business environment. The Group can also rely on negotiating leverage, supplier diversification, on the flexibility of suppliers in production logistics and, last by not least, the Group's geographic diversification.

The conflict in the Middle East is undergoing a phase of severe escalation, with devastating consequences for civilians and a growing risk of regional destabilization (involving countries like Iran and Lebanon). Despite diplomatic efforts, a lasting solution still seems far away. That said the Group only has 24 clinics in Israel which generate sales equal to less than 1% of annual consolidated revenues and limited activities in nearby countries (Egypt) and does not have any direct or indirect business activities in Lebanon and Iran.

As for the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, the situation continues to be characterized by intense combat and complicated diplomatic developments. The Group has no business activities, direct or indirect, in either Ukraine, Russia or Byelorussia.

While inflation was moderate in the reporting period and interest rates declined, economic growth remains limited, impacted by external factors like trade tensions and the increase in energy costs. These factors could continue to impact demand and different cost categories like, for example, the cost of labor and the cost of debt. Generally, the hearing aid market has shown great resilience even in times of economic crisis thanks to the importance and non-discretional nature of hearing care, which remains a priority for consumers regardless of the economic conditions. This along with the use of public/private insurances and consumer loans, which facilitate access to services and hearing aids, contribute to the stability of the demand even in periods of economic uncertainty. The persistent uncertainty and volatility, could, however, impact consumer confidence in general and cause consumers to postpone the purchase of a hearing aid which would, however, still be needed in the medium term.

With regard to climate change, the Amplifon Group's business model is based on providing retail hearing solutions. The goals, therefore, connected to transitioning to alternative sources of energy and the actions needed to address climate change are pursued through the steps taken by the Group to improve the energy efficiency of its business activities, as well as report on the greenhouse gas emissions generated along the value chain. Toward this end, the Group is committed to defining and presenting short-term targets for reducing emissions aligned with the Science-Based Target Initiative (SBTi) by 2025.

Furthermore, the Group's activities and business model do not entail significant exposure to the environmental risks connected specifically to climate change.

3. Acquisitions and goodwill

In the first three months of 2025 the Group continued with its strategy to balance external and internal growth and acquired 195 clinics, comprising 171 in EMEA, 22 in Asia Pacific and 2 in Americas.

The total investment, including the indebtedness consolidated and the best estimate of the net change in the earn-out linked to sales and profitability targets payable over the next few years, amounted to €40,972 thousand.

The changes in goodwill and amounts recognized as a result of the acquisitions made in the period are reported in the table below and shown by groups of Cash Generating Units.

Total 1,945,495 34,160 - - (30,107) 1,949,548

"Business combination" refers to the temporary allocation to goodwill of the portion of the purchase price paid, including deferments and contingent consideration (earn-outs), which is not directly attributable to the fair value of assets and liabilities, but is based on the positive contribution to cash flows that is expected to be made for an indefinite period of time. "Other net changes" refers almost entirely to foreign exchange differences.

Identification of the Groups of Cash Generating Units

For the purposes of impairment testing the total goodwill stemming from the cost incurred for a business combination was allocated to groups of Cash Generating Units; these groups of Cash Generating Units were identified by region and benefit from synergies, as well as shared policies, and are autonomous in the management and use of resources.

The assets allocated to the groups of Cash Generating Units and the methods used to determine these groups are the same as those applied to the financial Statements as at 31 December 2024.

The groups of Cash Generating Units recognized to perform impairment are:

  • EMEA which includes Italy, France, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Spain, Portugal, the UK, Hungary, Poland, Israel and Egypt;
  • AMERICAS which includes both the single businesses through which operations are carried out in the US market (Franchising, Retail and Managed Care) and the countries Canada, Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Panama, Ecuador, Colombia and Uruguay;
  • ASIA PACIFIC which includes Australia, New Zealand, India and China.

The recoverable value of goodwill is determined based on the value in use or, if the latter is less than book value, on fair value. No impairment loss was identified as a result of the impairment tests conducted on 31 December 2024.

The Group tests for impairment of goodwill once a year and in the event of any impairment indicators.

The Group recorded a solid revenue performance in the first three months of 2025 despite a particularly challenging comparison base and a weak market, above all in the United States. Despite a weak market, there was a significant increase in revenues in the Americas, while Europe, though up overall, was still soft and the growth is exclusively linked to the acquisitions that occurred in the period. APAC, which was impacted primarily by the weakness of the New Zealand and Australian dollars, shows an overall slight decline compared to the comparative period, but with positive organic growth. The Group overall profitability has increased, reaching a record level for the first quarter (+24.0% on revenues from sales and services).

Both sales and profitability, however, were below budget across all the geographic regions. The biggest gap was recorded in Americas and APAC.

The sensitivity analyses carried out during impairment testing on 31 December 2024 showed that all the Groups of Cash Generating Units had ample headroom capable of absorbing significant changes in the basic parameters and future cash flows.

In order to understand if the headroom recorded at year-end 2024 was maintained, the impairment tests were reperformed for all the groups of cash-generating units, using the discount rate (WACC), the growth rate (g) updated based on data available at 31 March 2025 (WACC rates were higher compared to the rates used at 31 December 2024, against slight changes in the growth rate) and adjusting the potential total cash flows by a percentage equal to the budget gap reported at March 2025. Based on the analyses carried out all the geographical areas had maintained significant headroom capable of absorbing any significant changes in future cash flows.

No indicators of impairment therefore, for the purposes of measuring the recoverable value of goodwill reference should be made to the impairment tests reported in the Annual Report 2024.

A summary of the book value and the fair value of assets and liabilities, deriving from the temporary allocation of the purchase price made as a result of business combinations and the purchase of minority interests in subsidiaries, is provided in the following table.

The investments in intangible assets (€14,373 thousand) are related to investments in digital technology and information technology. The constant focus on the customer and the desire to increase control of operations fueled the significant work done on both technological infrastructures through the Symphony project, focused on providing customers with a highly personalized experience, as well as on the optimization of in-store systems and tools to support the Amplifon Product Experience, which has redefined Amplifon's entire customer journey, including through clinics' renovation. At the same time substantial work was also done on operating and back-office processes, as well as on systems used to streamline and centralize Group procurement.

The change in "Business combinations" comprises:

  • For €7,380 thousand, the temporary allocation of the price paid for acquisitions made in EMEA;
  • For €92 thousand the temporary allocation of the price paid for acquisitions made in Americas;

  • For €1,905 thousand the temporary allocation of the price paid for acquisitions made in APAC.

The item "Other net changes" is explained almost entirely by foreign exchange differences and the reclassification of work in progress completed in the period.

The increase in right of use assets (€30,327 thousand) acquired in the period is explained by the renewal of existing leases and the network expansion.

The change in "business combinations" comprises:

  • for €4,831 thousand, the temporary allocation of the price paid for acquisitions made in EMEA;
  • for €814 thousand, the temporary allocation of the price paid for acquisitions made in APAC.

"Other changes" refers mainly to foreign exchange differences recorded in the reporting period.

7. Other non-current assets

Long-term financial receivables 5,805 6,120 (315)

Other non-current assets 43,004 45,127 (2,123)

"Other non-current assets" amounted to €51,507 thousand on 31 March 2025 (€52,884 thousand on 31 December 2024).

The change in "Other non-current assets" compared to the prior reporting period is explained mainly by the short-term reclassification of the superbonus tax credits granted in accordance with Articles 119 and 121 of Law Decree 34/2020, purchased and recognized in 2024. These credits (and the related payments) are recognized at amortized cost and when utilized any remaining difference between the value at amortized cost and the nominal offsetting amount is recognized as financial income.

In the first three months of 2025:

  • as per the joint agreement between Amplifon S.p.A. and Amplifon Italia S.p.A. stipulated on 20 December 2024, credits with a nominal value of €2,539 thousand were transferred against consideration of €2,387 thousand (recognized in "Other receivables" of current assets) which can be used in full (and reimbursed by the assigning bank) in 2025 (as per current tax laws, these credits may be used to offset the payment of taxes, withholding and social charges);
  • credits used for offsetting amounted to €15,368 thousand;
  • the actualized financial income derived from the credits amounted to €932 thousand while actualized financial expenses for payables amounted to €57 thousand.

The amount of these credits recognized in "Other non-current assets" amounted to €11,356 thousand on 31 March 2025. The current portion of the credits is recognized in "Other receivables" for €6,259 thousand, while the payables for the settlement of these receivable are classified under "Other payables" for €18,413 thousand and the non-current portion is recognized in "Other long-term liabilities" for 13,656 thousand.

8. Share capital and treasury shares

On 31 March 2025 the share capital comprised 226,388,620 ordinary shares with a par value of €0.02 fully paid in and subscribed, unchanged with respect to 31 December 2024.

In the reporting period 400,000 treasury shares were purchased, and 10,200 shares were transferred following the exercise of performance stock grants.

During the reporting period and in April 2025 Amplifon finalized a series of transactions based on which the Group will not be subject to any financial covenants at the next reporting date (June 2025). More in detail:

  • In March 2025, Amplifon S.p.A. signed a 5-year, sustainability linked, credit facility with Intesa Sanpaolo totaling €175 million, comprised of a EUR 100 million revolving credit line and €75 million long term loan. The new financing was used to refinance, and increase, a pre-existing line expiring in 2026, subject to financial covenants. The new credit facility is not, however, subject to financial covenants;
  • In April 2025, Amplifon S.p.A. finalized another refinancing transaction with Banco BPM, which is also sustainability-linked, for a total of €100 million, comprised of a EUR 50 million, 5-year revolving credit line and a €50 million, 5-year term loan. This transaction is also not subject to financial covenants;
  • In April 2025 two committed, revolving credit lines, totalling €45 million, granted by Sparkasse and Barclays, expiring in the second half of 2025, were extinguished, in advance. Both of these credit lines were subject to financial covenants.

The remaining lines, subject to financial covenants, will expire in the second quarter of 2025.

Long-term debt, net of lease liabilities, amounts to €969,920 thousand on 31 March 2025 (€ 960,386 thousand at 31 December 2024), showing an increase of €9,534 thousand compared to 2024 explained by the new financing agreements signed in the reporting period which was only partially offset by the decrease in deferred payments for acquisitions.

Short-term debt, excluding lease liabilities, increased by €25,246 thousand, going from €1,419 thousand on 31 December 2024 to €26,665 thousand on 31 March 2025 as a result of the increase in total net debt.

More in detail, short-term debt comprises primarily the hot money accounts and the utilization of other short-term credit lines (€134,153 thousand), the short-term portion of long-term debt (€134,897 thousand), the interest payable on other bank loans (€5,258 thousand) and on the

Eurobond (€496 thousand) and, lastly, the best estimate of the deferred payments for acquisitions (€12,958 thousand), net of €261,383 thousand in total liquidity.

The Group has €495 million in unutilized irrevocable credit lines which, along with the unutilized portion of the loan signed with the European Investment Bank amounting to €225 million, €216 million in other available uncommitted credit lines, and the cash generation expected for 2025, make it possible to maintain the liquidity needed to satisfy current obligations, support business needs, as well as take advantage of any investment opportunities that might materialize.

The remaining bank loans, the Eurobond, and the loan granted by the European Investment Bank are not subject to covenants.

As a result of the transactions described above in Note 9 "Net financial indebtedness", at the next reporting date, 30 June 2025, the Group will no longer have loans subject to financial covenants. The covenants applied in accordance with current international practice which limit the ability to issue guarantees and complete sales and lease backs, as well as extraordinary transactions involving the sale of assets, will, however, remain in force.

The covenant ratios on 31 March 2025 (which, however, is not an official reporting date) were as follows:

Value as at

Net financial indebtedness excluding lease liabilities/Group net equity (Net Worth Ratio) 0.87
Net financial position excluding lease liabilities/EBITDA for the last four quarters (Leverage Ratio) 1.67
EBITDA for the last 4 quarters/Net financial expenses (Interest Cover) 18.50

The above-mentioned ratios were determined based on an EBITDA which was restated and normalized, in order to reflect the main changes.

15. Earnings (loss) per share

Earning (loss) per share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is obtained by dividing the net profit for the year attributable to the ordinary shareholders of the parent company by the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the period, considering purchases and disposals of own shares as cancellations and issues of shares.

Earnings per share are determined as follows:

Earnings per share First three months
2025
First three
months 2024
Net profit (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders (€ thousand) 32,885 34,864
Average number of shares outstanding in the period 225,247,527 225,787,617
Average number per share (€ per share) 0.14599 0.15441

Diluted earnings (loss) per share

Diluted earnings (loss) per share is obtained by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to the ordinary shareholders of the parent by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year adjusted by the diluting effects of potential shares. In the calculation of shares outstanding, purchases and sales of treasury shares are considered as cancellation or issue of shares.

The potential ordinary share categories refer to the possible conversion of Group employees' stock options and stock grants' attribution. The computation of the average number of outstanding potential shares is based on the average fair value of shares for the period; stock options and stock grants are excluded from the calculation since they have anti-diluting effects.

The potential ordinary share categories stems exclusively from the Group's treasury shares.

20. Segment Reporting

In accordance with IFRS 8 "Operating Segments", the schedules related to each operating segment are shown below.

The Amplifon Group's business (distribution and customization of hearing solutions) is organized into three specific geographical areas which comprise the Group's operating segments: Europe, Middle-East and Africa - EMEA - (Italy, France, The Netherlands, Germany, the United Kingdom, Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Belgium, Hungary, Egypt, Poland, and Israel), Americas (USA, Canada, Chile, Argentina, Ecuador, Colombia, Panama, Mexico and Uruguay) and Asia-Pacific (Australia, New Zealand, India, and China).

The Group also operates via centralized Corporate functions (Corporate bodies, general management, business development, procurement, treasury, legal affairs, human resources, IT systems, global marketing and internal audit) which do not qualify as operating segments under IFRS 8.

These areas of responsibility, which coincide with the geographical areas (the Corporate functions are recognized under EMEA), represent the organizational structure used by management to run the Group's operations. The reports periodically analyzed by the Chief Executive Officer and Top Management are divided up accordingly, by geographical area.

Performances are monitored and measured for each operating segment/geographical area, through operating profit including amortization and depreciation (EBIT), along with the portion of the results of equity investments in associated companies valued by using the equity method. Financial expenses are not monitored insofar as they are based on corporate decisions regarding the financing of each region (own funds versus borrowings) and, consequently, neither are taxes. Items in the statement of financial position are analyzed by the geographical area without being separated from the Corporate functions which remain part of EMEA. All the information relating to the income statement and the statement of financial position is determined using the same criteria and accounting standards used to prepare the consolidated financial statements.

21. Accounting policies

Presentation of the financial statements

The consolidated financial statements as at March 31, 2025 were prepared in accordance with the historical cost method with the exception of derivatives, a few financial investments measured at fair value and assets and liabilities hedged against changes in fair value, as explained in more detail in this report, as well as on a going concern basis.

With regard to the financial statements, the following is specified:

  • in the statement of financial position, the Group distinguishes between non-current and current assets and liabilities;
  • in the income statement, the Group classifies costs by nature insofar as this is deemed to more accurately represent the primarily commercial and distribution activities carried out by the Group;
  • comprehensive income statement: in addition to the net result for the year, it includes the effects of changes in exchange rates, the cash flow hedge reserve, the foreign currency basis spread reserve on derivative instruments and the actuarial gains and losses that have been recognized directly in changes in shareholders' equity, these items are divided according to whether or not they can be subsequently reclassified to the income statement;
  • statement of changes in net equity: the Group reports all the changes in net equity, including those deriving from shareholder transactions (payment of dividends and capital increases);
  • statement of cash flows: is prepared using the indirect method to determine cash flow from operations.

Use of estimates in preparing the financial statements

The preparation of the financial statements and explanatory notes requires the use of estimates and assumptions particularly with regard to the following items:

  • revenues for services rendered over time recognized based on the effort or the input expended to satisfy the performance obligation;
  • allowances for impairment made based on the asset's estimated realizable value;
  • provisions for risks and charges made based on a reasonable estimate of the amount of the potential liability, including with regard to any counterparty claims;
  • provisions for obsolete inventories in order to align the carrying value of inventories with the estimated realizable value;
  • provisions for employee benefits, calculated based on actuarial valuations;
  • amortization and depreciation of intangible assets and tangible fixed assets recognized based on the estimated remaining useful life and the recoverable amount;
  • income tax recognized based on the best estimate of the tax rate for the full year;
  • IRS and currency swaps (instruments not traded on regulated markets), marked to market at the reporting date based on the yield curve and market exchange rates, which are subject to credit/debit valuation adjustments based on market prices;

  • the lease term duration was determined on a lease-by-lease basis and is comprised of the "non-cancellable" period along with the impact of any extension or early termination clauses if exercise of that clause is reasonably certain. This property valuation took into account circumstances and facts specific to each asset;
  • discount rate of leases falling within the scope of IFRS 16 (incremental borrowing rate) determined based on the IRS (reference interbank rate used as an index for fixed-rate mortgage loans) in the individual countries in which Amplifon Group companies operate, for maturities commensurate with the duration of the specific rental contract, plus the Parent Company's credit spread and any costs for additional guarantees. In the rare instances when the IRS rate is not available (Egypt, Ecuador, Mexico and Panama), the risk-free rate was determined based on government bonds with maturities similar to the duration of the specific rental contract.

Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed, and any changes made, following the change of the circumstances or the availability of better information, are recognized in the income statement. The use of reasonable estimates is essential to the preparation of the financial statements and does not affect their overall reliability.

The Group verifies the existence of a loss in value of goodwill regularly once a year or in the event of impairment indicators.

The impairment test is conducted for the groups of cash generating units to which the goodwill refers and based on which the Group values, directly or indirectly, the return on the investment that includes the goodwill.

The adoption of the standards and interpretations described above did not have a material impact on the measurement of the Group's assets, liabilities, costs, and revenues.

22. Subsequent events

At the end of April, Amplifon has completed the acquisition of 24 clinics in Arizona, which represents the fourth largest franchisee of Miracle-Ear, with combined annual revenues of more than \$15 million. This acquisition is part of the Group's strategy to continue growing in the most important global market of the hearing care sector by strengthening a network of directly operated clinics alongside our consolidated franchising network. Following this acquisition, Miracle-Ear's network in the United States comprises more than 420 clinics, which are added to the circa 1,200 franchisees' locations. Today Amplifon's global network includes more than 10,200 locations.

On 1st April 2025, the Group finalized a sustainability-linked loan with Banco BPM for a total of EUR 100 million in order to refinance credit lines subject to financial covenants. The loan comprises a EUR 50 million, 5-year revolving credit facility and a EUR 50 million, 5-year term loan. At the same time, the Group extinguished two committed credit lines, subject to financial covenants, granted by Sparkasse and Barclays in advance for a total of EUR 45 million. As a result of these transactions, and as the remaining credit lines subject to financial covenants will expire in the second quarter, at the next reporting date (30 June 2025), the Group will no longer have any loans subject to financial covenants.

On 23 April 2025 the Shareholders' Meeting appointed the Company's new Board of Directors, which now comprises:

  • Susan Carol Holland (Chairperson);
  • Enrico Vita (Chief Executive Officer);
  • Giovanni Tamburi (Director);
  • Maurizio Costa (Director);
  • Maria Patrizia Grieco (Director);
  • Lorenzo Pozza (Director);
  • Nina Cortese (Director);
  • Nicola Bedin (Director);
