FNM Group| 9M 2023 Group net result
Positive consolidated net result despite change in perimeter and higher D&A, strong rebound of companies consolidated at equity


FNM Group | Adj. EBITDA by segment – Motorways

- Higher revenues driven by toll revenues (+€12.4mln) thanks to the combined effect of traffic recovery and network extension from 1 st March 2023
- Higher overall expenses for €2.1mln driven by a heterogeneous trend among cost categories:
- Operating costs up by €3.7mln following higher variable costs linked to traffic performance, intercompany service costs, IT expenses and net provisions for risks and charges
- Maintenance costs down by €1.7mln as a result of higher net releases from the renewal fund (+€9.2mln), which more than offset the increased costs (-€7.4mln) mainly related to works on Po Bridge and Zerbolò gate
- Staff costs in line YoY: higher costs from the renewal of the National Collective Bargaining Agreement and other variable components, almost fully offset by the absence of redundancy incentives charges booked in 9M22
(€mln)

FNM Group | Adj. EBITDA by segment – Ro.S.Co. & Services

(€mln)

FNM Group | Adj. EBITDA by segment – Railway infrastructure

- Higher expenses for the combined effect of:
- Operating expenses (excluding cyclical maintenance provisions) up by €3.9mln mainly because of costs for infrastructure maintenance and design, also incurred to deal with the damage resulting from the derailment that occurred at the end of 2022
- Staff costs up by €3.5mln due to headcount increase (+14 FTE) and absence of recovery of sick pay charges for 2015-2018 booked in 2022 (+€2.3mln in 9M22)
(€mln)

FNM Group | Adj. EBITDA by segment – Road passenger mobility

Financial performance mainly linked to the deconsolidation of La Linea/Martini from January 16th 2023 and the loss of car sharing contribution from January 1st 2023
On a like-for-like basis, EBITDA improvement as a result of better marginality for the combined effect of:
- Revenues up by €0.9mln mainly thanks to transport services (+€7.3mln) driven by more passengers transported and train replacements and capital grants for new busses (+0.6mln), which more than compensate absence of Government compensation for additional services (-€4.5mln) and Covid-19 related losses (-€2.7mln)
- Operating expenses down by €3.2mln mainly due to the normalization of fuel cost and fewer subcontracts to third parties to carry out additional services (+€4.0mln)
- Staff costs up by €1.8mlm due to headcount increase (+23 FTE) (€mln)
1 – Excluding the effects of the sale of La Linea/Martini Bus and absence of car sharing public contribution in 9M23 (see slide 27 for details) % = EBITDA Margin


FNM Group | Associates & JV – Trenord
Traffic recovery continues to drive improvement in operating performance, new Service Contract with RL under finalization

HIGHLIGHTS
- Strong increase in revenues as a result of:
- ticketing revenues up by €62.4mln thanks to the recovery in passenger volume, product mix and tariff increase from Sep.22/Jan.23
- service agreement revenues up by €3.0mln
- other revenues up by €10.8mln, including a €5.0mln tax credit on energy costs
- EBITDA at €133.1mln (+€62.3mln) thanks to higher revenues partially offset by staff costs (-€13.1mln) and other operating costs (-€0.8mln)
- EBIT turns positive at €6.9mln (+€64.4mln)
- 9M23 Net Loss following higher interest expenses and fiscal effect which compensate the improved operating performance
The NEW 2023-2033 Public Service Contract with Regione Lombardia:
positively evaluated by ART and in the late stage of the approval process – Regione Lombardia approved an extension until signing date and, in any case, no later than 30 November 2023 to allow for the completion of required administrative procedures


FNM Group | Associates & JV – APL
Traffic recovery continues to support operating performance, bottom line impacted by high interest rates


- Revenues up €2.0mln thanks to traffic growth above pre-Covid levels without increase in tariffs
- EBITDA in line YoY to €16.8mln. Growth in revenues mainly compensated by higher personnel costs (-€2.1mln) due to the internalization of activities in operations and collection
- Higher Net Loss YoY mainly due to higher financial charges linked to higher interests on existing loans at variable rate and amortization of the Senior Loan 1 accessory fees


FNM Group | 9M 2023 Capex analysis
Lower investments mainly driven by delay in TAF revamping, expected acceleration in 4Q23 but guidance revised downward

The rolling stock supply programme is covered with funds allocated by Regione Lombardia, including charges to be corresponded to Ferrovienord for the anticipation and general management costs of the order set to 1% of the train supply contract amounts (see FNM 2022 Annual Report for further details).
- Gross CAPEX made by FNM: fixed asset and software additions, excluding investments on railway infrastructure managed on behalf on Regione Lombardia as by Programme Agreement. The balance between cash capital investments shown in the Financial Statements and Gross CAPEX is mainly represented by changes in account payables/advances to suppliers, which are reconciled under net working capital for purposes of this presentation.
- Net CAPEX: Gross CAPEX after deducting public contributions related to the acquired assets, including investments on railway infrastructure managed on behalf on Regione Lombardia as by Programme Agreement. Capital grants - received mainly from Regione Lombardia, Regione Veneto and Ministry of Transport (MIT) - typically relate to the funding of capital investments managed by the Group for third parties or in conjunction with regulated activities. These cash flows are classified as investing activities, and accordingly reduce the overall cash outflow.
