2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND CHANGES TO THE GROUP'S ACCOUNTING POLICIES
2.1. Basis of Preparation
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as at June 30, 2025, have been prepared in condensed form in conformity with the international accounting standards applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements (IAS 34). The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements at June 30, 2025, do not contain all of the information required for the annual consolidated financial statements and should therefore be read together with the Group's consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2024.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Group can operate as a going concern since the Company's management has verified that there are no uncertainties regarding this.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the statement of financial position, that has been prepared based on the accounts as at June 30, 2025 of the controlled companies within the consolidation perimeter; the income statement, the comprehensive income statement, the cash flow statement, the statement of changes in equity and related illustrative notes, that have been prepared based on the accounts for the six months period ended June 30, 2025 of the controlled companies within the consolidation perimeter.
For the purposes of clarity and to make this document more readily understandable, all the amounts listed are stated in thousands of Euro, except when otherwise indicated.
2.2. Changes in Accounting Policies
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, except for the adoption of new standards effective as of January 1, 2025. The Group has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.
One amendment apply for the first time in six months ended June 30, 2025, but do not have an impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group.
- 10 -
Lack of exchangeability — Amendments to IAS 21
The amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates specify how an entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when exchangeability is lacking. The amendments also require disclosure of information that enables users of its financial statements to understand how the currency not being exchangeable into the other currency affects, or is expected to affect, the entity's financial performance, financial position and cash flows.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025. When applying the amendments, an entity cannot restate comparative information.
The amendments did not have impact on the Group's condensed consolidated financial statements.
Climate change: impacts on financial reporting, accounts and financial statement disclosures
While preparing the annual consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2024, the management has carefully evaluated the priorities endorsed by ESMA in October with particular reference to the consistency and connectivity between the information related to the climate change-related risks and the information included in the consolidated financial statements and plans.
In the first half of 2025, the Group reaffirmed its commitment to integrating ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) criteria into its corporate strategies, in line with the sustainability goals outlined in the 2024 report.
The initiatives undertaken focused in particular on the development of a monitoring system for the collection of non-financial data, as well as the implementation of measures aimed at ensuring responsible environmental resource management, promoting diversity and inclusion, and adopting transparent and ethical governance practices.
During the semester, the Group also monitored several key ESG performance indicators, including energy consumption, CO2 emissions, the percentage of women in managerial positions, and the number of training hours provided to staff, in order to assess progress against the established targets.
Consistent with the findings of the 2024 financial year, no ESG-related risks emerged that could have a significant current or prospective impact on the Group's economic, equity, or financial position.
The double materiality analysis conducted in preparation for the 2024 Sustainability Report — covering key environmental, climate-related, regulatory, and reputational topics — did not reveal any critical issues likely to economically or financially affect the Group's operations. Ongoing oversight of all topics identified as material through the double materiality assessment enables the Group to maintain high standards of resilience and sustainability, in line with stakeholder expectations and the evolving regulatory landscape.
- 11 -
In this context, the Group has initiated a process to align with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), through a gap analysis aimed at identifying areas for improvement in view of the 2025 reporting cycle.
At the same time, stakeholder engagement activities continued, including surveys and thematic meetings, with the goal of gathering feedback to help guide ESG strategies.
In the second half of 2025, the Group plans to consolidate its ESG data collection system and to strengthen initiatives related to climate transition, with a particular focus on improving energy efficiency in production processes and adopting low environmental impact materials.

The item "Accounts receivable from customers" as at June 30, 2025 relates primarily to sales and services other than boat sales, for which the balance is generally received before delivery based on the contractual terms and conditions in force. Therefore, they refer to paid after-sales services, sales of material and spare parts, merchandising and provision of joinery works. These are considered to be receivable within 12 months.
The provision for doubtful accounts, calculated by the Group in compliance with IFRS 9, changed as follows in the two years of reference:
| (in thousands Euro) | June 30, 2025 | December 31, 2024 |
|---|---|---|
| (unaudited) | (audited) | |
| At beginning of year | 3,725 | 3,495 |
| Impairment losses, net | 300 | 660 |
| Amount written off as uncollectible | (123) | (430) |
| At end of period | 3,902 | 3,725 |
An impairment analysis is performed at the end of each of the reporting dates to measure expected credit losses. The provision rates are based on the aging for each specific customer. The calculation reflects the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
The table below reports the amount of trade receivables — i.e., already net of any write-downs — which even if expired at the reporting date (June 30, 2025) are considered fully recoverable. The ageing analysis is presented on the basis of the collection due date of the relevant invoices and categorized into time-bands based on analysis used by the management to monitor the Group's cash flow.

| Total at June 30, 2025 | 35,333 | 21,503 | 964 | 537 | 1,609 | 10,719 |
In view of the fact that the Group's trade receivables relate to a large number of diversified customers, there is no significant concentration of credit risk.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES AND BUSINESS REVIEW
The Group is an established leader in the global luxury yacht industry with a portfolio of iconic brands of long heritage and outstanding high-end manufacturing capabilities. As one of the oldest Italian luxury yacht producers, it has been playing an important role in steering the development of the global luxury yacht industry by acquiring and integrating other leading yacht brands and production facilities since the establishment of the business in 1968. Its seven brands — Riva, Wally, Ferretti Yachts, Pershing, Itama, CRN and Custom Line — are globally recognized as symbols of luxury, exclusivity, Italian design, quality, craftsmanship, innovation and performance. The Group designs, produces and sells luxury composite yachts, made-to-measure yachts and super yachts from 8 to 95 meters, offering the full spectrum of functionalities and an increasing range of ancillary services, catering to the personalized tastes and requirements of its clientele. With its market leadership, rich history and iconic brand portfolio, the Group is positioned as the trend-setter of the global luxury yachting industry and the ambassador of Italian nautical excellence to the world.
Owing to excellent market reaction to the models launched in previous years, for the Relevant Period, the Group recorded a net revenue of new yachts of €620.4 million, representing a 1.5% increase from €611.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and the Group's adjusted EBITDA was €99.1 million, with an increase of about 2.5% from the six months ended June 30, 2024, which was €96.7 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin was equal to 16.0%, up 20 basis points when compared to 15.8% in the six months ended June 30, 2024. The net profit was almost in line with previous year (€44.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 to €43.6 million for the Relevant Period).
This excellent performance confirms the strength of the commercial and industrial strategy that the Group maintains strong negotiating power over prices, consolidates the most profitable made-to-measure segment, and absorbs fixed costs more efficiently, in addition to greater procurement economies of scale capacity.
The Group upheld an innovation-driven approach to maintain its market-leading position in its core business, placing great emphasis on research and development. Leveraging the substantial investments in research and development, the Group has been continuously renewing and broadening its product portfolio with technological and design innovation, allowing it to stay abreast of the rapidly evolving preferences and expectations of its clientele.
The launch of new models for composite and made-to-measure yachts, together with a growing interest in super yachts, allowed the Group to attract new customers while also continuing to nurture the interest of the Group’s loyal clients.
The Group’s other businesses provide synergy with its yacht manufacturing business with a comprehensive portfolio, including: (i) yacht brokerage, chartering and management services; (ii) after-sales and refitting services; (iii) brand extension activities (including exclusive lounges all-over-the-world); (iv) manufacturing and installation of wooden furnishings and kinetics for nautical interiors; (v) manufacturing and sale of coastal patrol vessel by the FSD; and (vi) manufacturing and sale of Wally sailing yachts.

Non-IFRS Measures
To supplement the Group’s consolidated income statements which are presented in accordance with IFRS, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA/net revenue of new yachts, being non-IFRS measures, were also presented in this announcement.
