Massimo Scagliarini, CEO of GVS, commented: "The year 2022 was a very busy year for GVS, characterised by a combination of geopolitical and macroeconomic events unprecedented in recent decades, with which the Company had to deal by adapting its strategies and priorities. In this new competitive context, GVS continued its path of growth, completing new strategic acquisitions in the Healthcare and Lifesciences division and continuing the process of integration and industrial efficiency of the recently acquired companies, with a view to recovering profitability levels in line with the Group's potential."
***
ANALYSIS OF THE GROUP'S ECONOMIC MANAGEMENT
In 2022, GVS achieved consolidated revenues of 387.6 million euro, +14.6% compared to 338.1 million euro recorded in 2021. Excluding the impact of the acquisitions made in the financial years 2021 and 2022, organic growth on a like-for-like basis and net of sales from disposable masks was 0.8%.
Also in terms of organic growth, the Group's divisions achieved solid increases overall. In detail:
- the Healthcare & Lifesciences division, which accounts for 63.3% of the total, reported revenues of 245.4 million euro with an increase of 36.1% compared to 2021, attributable to the following dynamics:
- o significant organic growth in the Healthcare Liquid business, which, net of the contribution of the acquisitions concluded in the first part of 2022 (equal to 75 million euro of net revenues), achieved a growth of 6.2%;
- o organic revenues of the Laboratory business grew by 7.8% to 34 million euro, compared to 2021 revenues of 31.6 million euro;
- o a significant contraction in the Healthcare Air & Gas business, which, due to the loss of a major customer and the reduction in supplies related to the COVID 19 pandemic, recorded a decrease of 38.2%;
- the Energy & Mobility division, which accounts for 20% of the total, generated organic growth of 9.4% compared to 2021, reaching 77.3 million euro and recording an increase in turnover by all sub-divisions;
- the Health & Safety division accounts for 16.7% of the total and stood at 64.9 million euro with a decrease of 25.5% compared to the same period of the previous year. The division, having overcome the effects of the extraordinary consumption resulting from the pandemic, refocused on the development of the professional mask business, also benefiting from the positive contribution of the acquisition of the RPB business. After sterilising the effect of disposable mask sales, the division recorded growth of 79.7%, while net of disposable masks and the contribution of M&A, organic growth was 23.4%.
Adjusted EBITDA shows a margin on revenue of 20.4% and amounted to 79 million euro (107.9 million euro in 2021). Pro-forma adjusted EBITDA, which includes the 12-month contribution of the companies acquired during the year, amounted to 86.3 million euro. The result for the period was impacted by (i) the delayed implementation of the sales price increase to compensate for the increase in production costs related to raw materials and energy, (ii) the normalisation of profitability related to lower sales attributable to the COVID pandemic and the consequent lower absorption of fixed






industrial costs, and (iii) the investments made to strengthen the sales and management structure to serve future growth with the consequent increase in the level of operating leverage.
Normalised EBIT with a margin on revenue of 14.1% amounted to 54.8 million euro, -38.7% compared to 89.3 million euro in the previous year's period. There was an increase in the item amortisation and depreciation attributable to the RPB, STT and Haemotronic acquisitions and for the remainder attributable to the acceleration of the Group's investment plans in recent years, in order to meet the necessary increase in production capacity.
Normalised net financial expenses (net of foreign exchange gains 14.4 million euro in 2022 and 10.1 million euro in 2021) increased in the period under review, from 2.0 million euro for the period ended 31 December 2021 to 6.2 million euro for the period ended 31 December 2022, mainly due to new borrowings related to the acquisitions completed in the second half of 2021 and first half of 2022 and the increase in market interest rates, to which part of the existing loans are linked.
The pre-tax result of recurrent activities reached 63 million euro in 2022, a decrease of 34.3 million euro compared to 97.3 million euro in 2021, due to the effect of the factors described above. The proposed allocation of the profit generated in FY 2022 does not include the distribution of dividends, to support the Group's growth strategy.
The Net Financial Position at 31 December 2021 was -375.5 million euro. The change with respect to 31 December 2021, totalling 267.6 million euro, was mainly due to the net cash used for the acquisition of the STT and Haemotronic groups in the amount of 216.0 million euro, net financial payables for leases and non-current financial payables acquired with STT and Haemotronic (49.7 million euro) and non-current financial payables for earn-outs, recorded at 31 December 2022 in the amount of 41.0 million euro, related to the same extraordinary transactions. In terms of current operations, the cash generated by operations and working capital management exceeded the cash needed to meet the requirements for ordinary investments, payment of financial expenses and taxes.
BUSINESS OUTLOOK
\
GVS continues to pursue the organic consolidation of the results obtained to date thanks to the progressive industrial and commercial integration of recent acquisitions and a rebalancing of the mix of the product portfolio once the extraordinary scenario linked to Covid19 has been overcome. The objective is to confirm in the medium term the trend of organic growth that has historically characterised the Group, while maintaining timeliness in responding to the demands of the market and its customers with an increasing integration of ESG factors in the business strategy.
In this context, the Group remains focused on the objective of recovering margins, through the implementation of specific strategic actions such as:
- the revision, in part already started and to be completed by the second quarter of 2023, of sales prices, in order to realign industrial profitability in light of the increase in raw material costs during the financial year 2022;
- the realisation of synergies identified in the context of recent acquisitions, in particular relating to RPB, STT and Haemotronic, both with a view to streamlining production costs, exploiting the







full overlapping of processes with GVS plants, and promoting cross-selling activities on the aggregated customer base;
- the implementation of special projects, aimed at recovering efficiency in production saturation, mainly through the rationalisation of production facilities in the United States and China and the internalisation of production currently carried out by third parties.
In light of the actions described above, GVS expects to achieve the following results in 2023:
- Consolidated turnover between 440 and 460 million euro;
- Adjusted EBITDA between 95 and 105 million euro;
- Consolidated net financial position between 340 and 360 million euro;
- approximately 15 million euro of extraordinary investments related to the new Suzhou plant in China.
Therefore, it is noted that also the 2023 financial year remains marked by high uncertainties, mainly related to ongoing geopolitical tensions and the effects on the economy of the restrictive monetary policies promoted by central banks to counter inflationary phenomena.
