Fabriano, April 29, 2025 – The Board of Directors of Elica S.p.A. has approved the 2025 First Quarter results, prepared in accordance with IFRS accounCng standards.

***

"In 2024 we embarked on a new challenging and ambi<ous transforma<on: to become a leading player in the global Cooking market thanks to major product innova<ons and a new brand iden<ty. Today, despite a s<ll challenging market environment dominated by uncertainty, we are seeing the first results of our projects, with the ini<al three months of the year showing encouraging signs. The success of LHOV, together with the expanded product range, not only confirms that our strategy is the correct one, but significantly mo<vates the en<re organisa<on for the future, while remaining fully aware of the ongoing complexi<es in our sector" stated Francesco Casoli, ExecuZve Chairperson of Elica.

"The Q1 results are encouraging, despite the s<ll uncertain market environment. Both divisions have returned to growth: the Cooking division thanks to the excellent North America performance, and the Motors division thanks to the increased market share. We con<nue with determina<on to pursue this transforma<on and to develop new projects, fully aware that this may weigh on margins in the short term, but confident in the strength of our financial posi<on and in our medium-term vision. We s<ll have complex months ahead, although the early posi<ve signs confirm the strength of our strategy. We therefore con<nue to invest in direct distribu<on, in Europe and North America, where we have recently expanded our direct presence also to the North-East of the United States". stated Giulio Cocci, Chief ExecuZve Officer of Elica.

Elica Group Q1 2025 Opera<ng Performance

Revenue Euro 118.8 million (up 1.3% vs Q1 2024). The posiCve trend, which follows
ten consecuCve quarters of decline, stems from the growth in North America,
driven by the success of the direct distribuCon strategy. In EMEA however,
both Cooking and Motors division demand remains weak.
The Cooking division, which accounts for approximately 77% of total
revenues, reported a slight increase in sales to Euro 91.2 million (Euro 90.4
million in Q1 2024). The OEM business reported a good performance for the
first three months (+2.2% vs Q1 2024), thanks to the entry of new customers
and the substanCally stable Own Brand performance (+0.1% vs Q1 2024).
The Americas reports an increase of 6.6% on the same quarter of 2024. In
parCcular, B2C sales were up 27%, thanks to the distribuCon strategy
introduced to the region, with new product launches and a broader range of
products. This resulted in the entry of new customers in North America, a
consolidaCon of the presence in the region of the two new own brand
distribuCon companies: AG InternaConal and Southeast Appliance (SEA) and
producCon in Mexico of new inducCon and aspiraCon cooktops.
The Motors division, which represents approximately 23% of total revenues,
was up 2.9% to Euro 27.6 million (Euro 26.8 million in Q1 2024). The posiCve
sales performance in the quarter was mainly due to the increased market
share on the principal accounts which drove both the heaCng and venClaCon
segments.
Adjusted EBITDA Euro 7 million (Euro 7.6 million in Q1 2024), with a margin on revenues of
5.9% (6.5% in Q1 2024). Investments to support the Cooking transformaCon
project conCnued to have a significant impact on the first quarter of 2025.
Adjusted EBIT Euro 1.1 million (Euro 1.8 million in Q1 2024), with a margin on revenues of
0.9% (1.5% in Q1 2024). Mainly abributable to the effects on EBITDA.

Outlook

The sector conCnued to contract in 2024, parCcularly in terms of the Cooking division, impacted by an unfavourable price mix and significant promoConal pressure. The Motors division also saw a slowdown, impacted by residenCal demand weakness and regulatory uncertainty related to the energy transiCon.

These dynamics conCnued into 2025, within an environment sCll shaped by significant inflaCon, declining consumpCon on the main European markets and an increasing focus on sustainable and energy-efficient soluCons.

Against this complex backdrop, the Group conCnues to consolidate its market presence thanks to the consistent expansion of the customer porholio, the development of new products and the strengthening of the direct distribuCon strategy in North America and Canada through the own brands.

Looking to the medium/long-term, Elica confirmed its commitment to transforming the Cooking segment, through investments in the brand, innovaCon and the expansion of the product range. In parallel, within the Motors segment, the Group intends to tap into the energy transiCon-related opportuniCes, parCcularly the development and commercialisaCon of heat pumps, in addiCon to the launch of new products. These strategies form the basis for a gradual recovery of revenue and margin growth, in line with the long-term business vision.

Outlook FY2025:

  • YoY flat market amid a deeply uncertain general environment, despite the slightly posiCve signs emerging in Q1.
  • Strategic focus on the medium/long-term prioriCes:
    • o Cooking transformaCon
    • o Direct distribuCon in North America and Europe, also through M&A's
    • o Growing market share, search for new business opportuniCes and launch of new Motors Division products

Preliminary guidance:

  • Revenues and Margins in line with 2024
  • Further improvement in Net Financial PosiZon

e) uClise treasury shares for transacCons such as sales, conferment, allocaCon, exchange or other disposal within agreements with strategic partners, or to serve any corporate transacCons (e.g. converCble loans); and/or

f) uClise treasury shares in guarantee of loans.

To execute the Buyback Plan, Elica has appointed Intermonte SIM S.p.A. as the specialised intermediary to adopt decisions on purchases with full autonomy, also with regards to the Cming of transacCons, in compliance with the contractually established parameters and criteria, in addiCon to the applicable rules and the above-stated Shareholders' MeeCng resoluCon.

Adjusted EBIT is EBIT net of the relaCve adjustment items.

Net financial income/(expense) is the sum of the Share of profit/(loss) from Group companies, Financial income, Financial Charges and Exchange rate gains and losses.

The Earnings (loss) per Share for Q1 2025 and Q1 2024 was calculated by dividing the Group Net Profit as defined in the Consolidated Income Statement, by the number of outstanding shares at the respecCve reporCng dates. The number of shares outstanding at period-end differs from that at March 31, 2024 due to the launch of the treasury share buy-back plan.
