9M 2023 Highlights

Adjusted EBITDA Margin improvement at 17,6% in 9M 2023 and strong Net Bank Debt reduction in the last 12 months of 48,6mln €
- ˗ Adjusted Core Business Sales of 614,2mln €, +3,2% (+19,2mln €) on the same period of the previous year (595,0mln € in 9M 2022); +6,7% at comparable FX rates. Asia +29,4mln € (+32,8%), Central and South America +12,2mln € (+21,4%), North America +9,2mln € (+3,5%) and Other Countries +0,02mln € (+0,7%) partially offset by Europe -10,7mln € (-5,9%).
- ˗ Adjusted EBITDA, excluding IFRS 16 impact, of 108,0mln €, +13,1% (+12,5mln €) in 9M 2022 (95,5mln € ); +13,3% at comparable FX rates (+12,8mln €), highlighting a more than proportional growth than revenues thanks to the positive performance in North America, Asia and Middle-South America.
- ˗ Adjusted EBITDA margin at 17,6% with a significant increase of 150bp on the same period of the previous year (16,1%) improving on H1 2023 and better than foreseen, mainly thanks to the positive effect generated by price increase and cost efficiencies, despite the services costs increase to support the growth. Significant margin improvement in North America.
- ˗ Adjusted Net Profit, excluding IFRS 16 impact, of 45,1mln €, +4,9% (+2,1mln €) on the same period of the previous year. This value is significantly impacted by higher net financial expenses at 23,4mln € compared to the ones of the same period of the previous year, of which 21,5mln € mainly related to the increase in variable interest rates and the residual part mostly linked to the negative financial exchange effects on the main currencies.
- ˗ Net Bank Debt of 367,0mln € (415,6mln € in 9M 2022) with a decrease in the last twelve months of 48,6mln €, decrease of 47,5mln € excluding positive FX effect of approx. 9,3mln € and negative M&A effect of approx. 8,2mln € related to the acquisition made by DOMS Industries Limited.
- ˗ Adjusted "Free Cash Flow to Equity" at +6,4mln € (-24,1mln € in 9M 2022), with an improvement of +30,5mln € on 9M 2022 mainly due to higher operating cash flow generation and lower working capital absorption of 34,2mln €, partially mitigated by higher CAPEX for 13,2mln €, almost completely related to Asia to support the growth and higher net financial expenses for 3,7mln €, mainly due to the interest rates increase.
- ˗ Net Bank Debt and "Free Cash Flow to Equity" are better than foreseen in 9M 2023 and confirming at least our 2023 expected cash generation.
