Reduction in net debt also due to the share capital increase in 2015 (Euro 66.8 mn)

FAVOURABLE PAYMENT CYCLE

High visibility on revenues due to long-term contracts with organisers Main financial clauses in the contractual agreements with organisers:

  • •standard contract guarantee (minimum guaranteed)
  • •significant advance payments
  • •treasury management services on behalf of organisers
  • The Group has structural negative NWC

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

  • • The performance in the first semester of the current financial year was positive albeit negatively impacted by some necessary extraordinary costs that were mainly consultancy fees for the overhaul of corporate procedures
  • • Given the lifting of the administration order on the subsidiary Nolostand, the Company is finalising all the initiatives to optimise and introduce new working models and methodologies that ensure more effective and secure business management: the hearing for the outcome of the administration order on the standfitting business division of Fiera Milano is scheduled to take place on 28 September 2017
  • • The remainder of the year should benefit from the effect of a more favourable exhibition calendar that includes the important directly organised biennial exhibition Host, the world leader in the professional hospitality sector
  • • Therefore, barring any unforeseen events or circumstances, the Group expects a consistent year-on-year improvement in the gross operating profit for full-year 2017
  • • The Company is confident that its governance issues have been resolved and that this will ensure management stability, a renewed business focus and the introduction of improved corporate strategies
