During 2024, the scope of application, roles and responsibilities will be defined

Strategic plan assumptions: mobility demand evolution
Compared to strategic plan assumptions, MISE is well on track, bus transport is showing a slower recovery and Trenord is over performing



FY 2024 Outlook

Guidance confirmed: investments expected to accelerate driven mainly by motorway and renewable energy generation


Rescheduling of investments vs Strategic Plan…
The acquisition and development of Viridis is expected to offset the lower capex realized in '21-23 and the effects of reprogramming investments in rolling stock and road passenger mobility compared to the original forecasts for '24-25


* 2021-2025 capex guidance €850mln + forecast logistic terminal acquisition that was not completed
… leads to EBITDA generation in line with Strategic Plan targets but with a different mix



Adj. NFP evolution takes into account Viridis acquisition and the renewal of Ferrovienord's Service Contract

* MISE is fully consolidated in the FNM Group's financial statements starting on 26 February 2021. The values for 2021 consider the consolidation of MISE from 1 January 2021, 2020 was similarly restated as if MISE's consolidation had occurred on 1 January 2020. ** see press releases of 2 December 2022 and 28 December 2023 for details

Motorways - Traffic evolution (vehicles-km)



Motorways – Regulatory framework (1/2)

Key Players
- Ministry of Infrastructures and Transportation (MIT) ex ANAS is the Grantor of the Concession1;
- Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF) reviews and approves the Economic Financial Plan (EFP) and the yearly tariff increases requests together with the MIT through the publication of an interministerial decree;
- Transport Regulation Authority (ART) is the independent regulatory authority;
- Interministerial Committee for Economic Planning and Sustainable Developments (CIPESS) approves the Final Design ("Progetto Definitivo") and provides opinions on EFP updates, including the Concession Addendum ("Atto Aggiuntivo") to the Single Concession Agreement ("Convenzione Unica") of motorway concessionaires.
Deed of Concession
- The Deed of Concession was signed on 7 November 2007 between MISE as Concessionaire and ANAS S.p.A. as Grantor, replaced in 2012 by the MIT. On 10 March 2017, the Concession Addendum n.1 ("Atto Aggiuntivo") relating to the second regulatory period 2013-2017 became effective . The Concession Agreement expiration date is set on 31 October 2028;
- The scope of the Concession is the design, construction and management of the A7 Serravalle-Milan Motorway connecting Genova to Milan, the West (A50), East (A51) and North (A52) Milan Ring Roads. The company also manages the Bereguardo-Pavia (A53) and the West Pavia (A54) Ring Roads;
- Implementation of the contents of ART 69/2019 resolution on tariff matters.
- On expiration date, the concessionaire has to continue ordinary business administration until transfer of the operation management to another concessionaire. The grantor has to start a new tender procedure to select the new concessionaire well in advance of the Concession Agreement termination in order to avoid discontinuity in the management of the assets;
- Concession Agreement sets that, if the hand over to the new concessionaire is not completed within 24 months from the Concession Agreement expiration date, the Grantor will hand over the Concession.

Motorways – Regulatory framework (2/2)

EFP 2020-2024 main financial elements (ex. ART decision n.69/2019)
- MISE's new regulatory framework will be composed of the Concession Addendum n.2 to the 2007 Single Concession Agreement and the 2020-2024 EFP that will set new CAPEX, maintenance and efficiency standards;
- Tariff setting mechanism based on 3 building blocks: (i) a "management tariff" allowing the recovery of efficient operating costs and ordinary maintenance, evaluated with reference to the base year costs for each regulatory period and a price-cap yearly dynamic; (ii) a "construction tariff" allowing the recovery of capital costs related to assets reversible upon expiration of the Concession; (iii) an "additional charge" aimed at recovering specific other charges (including the recovery of lost revenues and additional costs related to the Covid-19 pandemic) not subject to the price-cap dynamics;
- The new model envisages a RAB-based tariff regime which distinguishes between existing/authorized investments (RAB ante) and new investments (RAB post) remunerated at a fixed IRR and WACC respectively;
- Inflation, traffic, WACC and other relevant parameters are updated at the beginning of each 5-year regulatory period;
- Financial adjustments ("Poste Figurative") may be applied in order to smooth tariff increases with a neutral effect from a financial standpoint included into the RAB and remunerated at a blended regulated rate;
- Recovery of increases of construction costs on future investments price increases to be included in the RAB and recovered through amortization.
Current estimate of capitalization of the "inflationary effect" and "Covid effect" (≈ €450mln)
- The new remuneration criteria provides a strong safeguard on returns blending historical rate of returns on existing assets with a WACC approach on new investments principle of using a weighted average rate between IRR and WACC for discounting the balance of figurative items in order to ensure financial equilibrium1
- Remuneration of existing assets and already agreed upon investments equal to the implied IRR (so-called "safeguard mechanism")
- Remuneration of new investments is equal to the WACC as determined by ART for the first regulatory period the WACC is equal to 7.09% (nominal pre-tax), to be updated every 5 years according to market conditions

Motorways – Update of 2020-2024 Economic Financial Plan
Timeline paced by several regulatory steps: expected final approval of EFP and Addendum to Concession by summer 2024

Glossary
- Adjusted EBITDA: it is represented by EBITDA (earnings for the year before income taxes, of the other financial income and expenses, of depreciation, amortization and impairments of fixed assets), excluding non-ordinary expenses and income, such as: (i) income and expenses deriving from restructuring, reorganization and business combination; (ii) clearly identified income/expenses not directly referred to the ordinary performance of the business; (iii) in addition to any income/expenses deriving from significant non-ordinary events and transactions as defined by Consob communication DEM6064293 of 28/07/2006.
- Adjusted EBITDA Margin: the percentage of Adjusted EBITDA over total revenues.
- Adjusted Net Result: Net Profit (Loss) before recognition of the result of companies consolidated using the equity method
- Adjusted NFP: it is represented by the Net Financial Position (NFP) including cash and cash equivalents and all financial liabilities, restated excluding only cash and current payables related to financial investments made in accordance with Regione Lombardia's "Rolling Stock purchase programme 2017-2032", with the aim of sterilizing the timing effects of contributions collection and payments made to suppliers, recognized in accordance with IFRIC 12.
- Rolling Stock Purchase Programme 2017-2032: On behalf of Regione Lombardia Ferrovienord is engaged in purchasing, managing, maintaining and storing new rolling stock, to be allocated to railway companies holding a service contract with the Region, with a commitment to complete the supplies by 2025. 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.
