press release 10th May 2018

" We are very satisfied with our business in the first months of the year; considering the current sell out rates of the 2018 spring summer collection, the excellent sales campaign of the 2018 Fall Winter collection and the high quality of sales, we can confirm our expectations for double-digit growth in both revenues and profit next year.

A most heartfelt thank you to all our employees who, with their work, help us fulfill our longed-for desire to work and live in the utmost respect for "human privacy".

Privacy protects our intimacy; we need a fair amount of privacy in order to strike a balance between public and private life and to promote our wellbeing".

Greater China

Strong increase, albeit from starting figures that are still limited, with positive performance in Mainland China, as well as Taiwan and Macao

Mainland China growth supported by results in existing network and the positive contribution by one boutique opening, some selected selling surface increase and new spaces dedicated to the brand in most exclusive multibrand boutiques

Italy

We are especially pleased with 1Q 18 sales performance, considering Italy to be a market of high strategic value, an extremely important window for the brand's image and a "thermometer" of the appreciation of the collections

North America

High single digit performance at constant currency, with a very interesting sell-out performance in all distribution channels, both monobrand and multibrand

Sell-through increase in multibrand channel, with a further increase compared with last year, following a very positive orders collection

Rest of the World

Solid results in all geographical areas, supported by an increase in the demand from customers who are attracted by a brand that we believe to be one of the symbols of the Made in Italy sector

Positive contribution to sales growth by new monobrand wholesale opening in the prestigious Dubai Mall at the end of 1Q 18
