Completion of €1 billion share buyback program

Refinancing of long-term debt via a new bond issue

In February 2024 Exor issued bonds for a nominal amount of €650 million with a fixed annual coupon of 3.75% maturing in February 2033, mainly to refinance maturing debt. The notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, admitted for trading on the Euro MTF Market, with an A- credit rating assigned by Standard & Poor's.

Accelerated bookbuild offering for 4% of Ferrari's outstanding shares

In March 2025, Exor completed the sale of approximately 7 million of the common shares it held in Ferrari by way of an accelerated bookbuild offering to institutional investors for a total proceeds of €3 billion.

The aim of the transaction was to reduce concentration within Exor's portfolio and allow for a sizeable new acquisition, when such an opportunity presents itself, as Exor continues to pursue its purpose of building great companies. In addition, Exor announced the intention to use a portion of the proceeds to launch a new share buyback program for €1 billion.

Exor remains fully committed as a long-term shareholder of Ferrari and remains its single largest shareholder with approximately 20% of the economic rights and 30% of the voting rights in Ferrari's share capital.

Launch of Tender Offer to execute a new €1 billion share buyback program

Today Exor announces the launch of a reverse Dutch auction Tender Offer on 27 March 2025 to repurchase Ordinary Shares for an aggregate consideration of up to (and including) €1 billion to Qualifying Shareholders1 .

The Tender Offer allows to acquire shares in a short time frame and undertake an effective and efficient share buyback. For any remainder amount not taken up in the Tender Offer, Exor is planning to execute an on-market share buyback program from time to time on Euronext Amsterdam.

Qualifying Shareholders will be able to either select the price at which they wish to tender their Ordinary Shares in a price range from a 3% discount to a 10% premium over the VWAP during the Determination period, or submit a Strike Price Tender. The price to be paid by Exor will be subject to a price cap of €[X] and within the limits of the authorization granted by Exor's AGM held on 28 May 2024.

Exor's controlling shareholder Giovanni Agnelli B.V. has provided an irrevocable undertaking to participate for an aggregate amount of €570 million, with the objective to reduce its net debt position.

Exor plans to start the cancellation process of the purchased shares after the settlement of the Tender Offer. As of the date of this release, Exor holds 7,226,558 shares in treasury.

More details on the Tender Offer transaction, including definitions of capitalised terms used in this section, can be found in the launch press release and offer memorandum dated today, available on Exor's website at: www.exor.com/pages/investors-media/shareholders-corner/share-buyback.

Drivers of change in Total Assets or GAV

At 31 December 2024, GAV amounted to €42,460 million, an increase of €2,721 million over the period.

The value of Companies increased by €2,937 million mainly driven by the positive market performance of Listed Companies (€1,485 million), investments made in Listed Companies (€636 million), investments made in Unlisted Companies (€207 million) as well as positive fair value adjustments of Unlisted Companies (€177 million) and the reclassification of Clarivate from Others into Listed Companies (€432 million).

The value of Investments increased by €754 million mainly driven by the positive fair value adjustment of Lingotto Funds (€570 million) and Ventures (€81 million) as well as investments made in Lingotto Funds (€61 million) and Ventures (€42 million).

The value of Others decreased by €970 million mainly driven by the reclassification of Clarivate from Others into Listed Companies (€432 million), asset disposals (€439 million) and the negative fair value adjustment of Listed securities net of positive adjustments in reinsurance vehicles and other assets (€168 million), partially offset by cash inflows and positive translation effects.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Change in financial reporting

Exor changed its reporting from 1 January 2024 as it determined that, at that date, it met the criteria for qualification as an investment entity as defined by IFRS 10. In line with IFRS requirements, the change is prospectively applied from 1 January 2024, with a material impact on the presentation of the Financial Statements, with prior period not restated, in accordance with IFRS 10.

Exor believes that this change aligns its reporting and disclosures with its business and activities, with NAV and GAV now being equal to IFRS measures (Equity and Total Assets, respectively). The terminology in this report which refers to Alternative Performance Measures (APM) is presented under section "Definitions and Alternative Performance Measures".

Changes in consolidation

In line with IFRS requirements, Exor deconsolidated portfolio companies where it exercises significant influence or control and accounted for them at fair value, with changes recognized in the income statement. Subsidiaries that provide investment-related support services to Exor N.V., and are not investment entity themselves, continue to be consolidated on a line-by-line basis.

Impact on the financial statements

The one-off positive impact of this change on the income statement amounts to €11,776 million, of which:

  • a positive impact of €12,150 million resulting from the difference between the net carrying amount of investments previously consolidated or accounted for using the equity method and their fair value at the date of the change and
  • a negative impact of €374 million resulting from the reversal to the income statement of the OCI reserves of the deconsolidated entities and the ones which are no longer equity-accounted.

Comparison with previous period

NAV and its components at 31 December 2024 are compared to 1 January 2024 to facilitate the understanding and the comparability of measures.

For the purpose of the presentation of this press release, profit and cash flow measures for the year ended 31 December 2023 have not been restated and they are presented as previously reported under the shortened consolidation criterion (non-IFRS). While the scope of consolidation for the period ended 31 December 2024 and the period ended 31 December 2023 is the same, the full and direct comparison between dates or across periods may be inappropriate or not meaningful if not carefully considered in this context because the fair value measurement is prospectively applied from 1 January 2024.

Definitions and Alternative Performance Measures (APM)

The management of Exor has identified a number of Alternative Performance Measures (APM) to measure the Company's financial performance and financial position, which form the basis for capital allocation decisions. Management uses these non-IFRS measures to describe its operations, as well as make decisions regarding future spending, resource allocations and other operational decisions. APM are presented to the financial community to facilitate their understanding of the performance of Exor, and are in line with the industry.

To ensure that the APM are correctly interpreted, it is emphasized that these measures are not indicative of future performance. These non-IFRS financial measures have no standardized meaning under EU-IFRS, are unaudited and are unlikely to be consistent and comparable to measures used by other companies. APM are not intended to be substitutes for measures of financial performance and financial position as prepared in accordance with EU-IFRS.

The APM have been consistently calculated and presented for all the reporting periods for which financial information is presented in this report. Reconciliation of APM to IFRS measures can be found in section 'Reconciliation with IFRS Financial Statements'.

Exor applies the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) guidelines to present APM, which correspond to financial measures other than a financial measure defined or specified in the applicable financial reporting framework (IFRS).
