Operating income (EBIT) amounted to €76.2 million (16.3% of sales) compared to €56.2 million in the first half of 2014 (16.5% of sales), a rise of 35.6%. On a like for like basis EBIT rose by 12.7% to reach €63.4 million, or 16.6% of turnover, increasing the margin by 0.1 percentage points.

Net profit totaled €80.6 million, benefiting from one-off income of €32.0 million, according to the International Accounting Standard (IFRS 3), arising from the exercise of the put options earlier than contractually provided, with figures being estimated and based on a forecast of profitability and cash generation to 2018 and to 2020.

Capital employed rose from €692.6 million at 31 December 2014 to €912.2 million at 30 June 2015. This was mainly due to the consolidation of Walvoil, Inoxihp and Bertoli, which led to an increase of €183.6 million, and to the revaluation of other currencies against the euro, causing an increase of €17.3 million. Non-annualized ROCE amounted to 8.4% (8.5% in the first half of 2014). Non-annualized ROE amounted to13.7% (7.5% in the first half of 2014).

The net financial position at 30 June 2015 amounted to €282.5 million compared to €152.0 million at 31 December 2014, due to payments made for the acquisition of investments of €123.3 million and the purchase of treasury shares of €21.5 million, as well as the distribution of dividends of €20.4 million. This amount does not include commitments for the purchase of investments in existing subsidiaries (put options) and liabilities for the acquisition of investments totaling €42.4 million overall (€74.1 million at 31 December 2014). Net cash generated from operations amounted to €71.7 million (€56.8 million in the first half of 2014), a rise of 26.2%. Free cash flow totaled €29.5 million (€5.0 million in the first half of 2014).

At 30 June 2015 the Company held 1,510,272 treasury shares, equal to 1.39% of its capital, purchased at an average price of €11.19.

* = Since EBITDA is not an accounting measure either as part of Italian accounting principles or as part of international accounting standards (IAS/IFRS), the calculation of this item may vary. EBITDA is a measure used by the company's management to monitor and assess its operating performance. Management believes that EBITDA is an important parameter for measuring the company's operating performance as it is not affected by the various criteria that may be used to determine taxable income, the amount and characteristics of capital employed and the relative depreciation and amortization policies. The criteria used by the company to determine EBITDA may not be consistent with that used by other companies/groups and the amount obtained may not be comparable with that calculated by them.

Basic earnings per share 0.478 0.181

EBITDA = EBIT + depreciation + amortization + allocations

ROCE = EBIT / capital employed

ROE = Consolidated profit for the period / Consolidated equity

* = Since EBITDA is not an accounting measure either as part of Italian accounting principles or as part of international accounting standards (IAS/IFRS), the calculation of this item may vary. EBITDA is a measure used by the company's management to monitor and assess its operating performance. Management believes that EBITDA is an important parameter for measuring the company's operating performance as it is not affected by the various criteria that may be used to determine taxable income, the amount and characteristics of capital employed and the relative depreciation and amortization policies. The criteria used by the company to determine EBITDA may not be consistent with that used by other companies/groups and the amount obtained may not be comparable with that calculated by them.
