EBITDA amounted to 294.1 million euro (22.7% of sales) compared to 317.9 million euro of 2019 (23.2% of sales). The following table sets out EBITDA by business sector:

Operating income (EBIT) was 207.7 million euro compared to 247.2 million euro in 2019.

Consolidated Net Profit for FY 2020, which currently stands at 152.7 million euro (was 180.7 million euro in FY 2019), does not incorporate the positive effect resulting from the application of the Italian law, passed in 2020, regarding the revaluation of assets.

Net cash flow from operating activities was 229.5 million euro (233.1 million euro in 2019). Free cash flow amounted to 203.8 million euro (124.8 million euro in 2019).

Net debt at 31 December 2020 was 269.5 million euro (370.8 million euro at 31 December 2019). In the course of the year, dividends paid amounted to 28.3 million euro; 48.5 million euro were spent in treasury shares, while disbursments for acquisitions amounted to 49.0 million euro. Additionally, at the end of the year the Group had commitments for the acquisition of stakes in subsidiaries worth a total of 62.7 million euro (54.3 million euro at 31/12/2019).

Capital employed went from 1,480.2 million euro at 31 December 2019 to 1,461.6 million euro at 31 December 2020, due to the opposite effects of the reduction of net working capital, on one side, and the acquisition of Transtecno on the other. The resulting ROCE was 14.2% (16.7% in 2019). ROE was 13.5% (17.1% in 2019).

At 31 December 2020 Interpump Group S.p.A. had 2,222,356 treasury shares in its portfolio, representing 2.04% of total share capital, purchased at an average cost of € 28.141.

UPDATE ON COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND EXPECTATIONS FOR THE 3-YEAR PERIOD 2021-2023

During the pandemic year, Interpump has rigorously put in practice all precautions necessary to reduce contagion risk on the workplace, in the various countries where the Group operates. Profitability of the business was preserved, as expressed by the EBITDA margins; free cash flow, at more than 200 million euro, was the highest ever, allowing to reduce net debt by the sizeable amount of 101 million, despite the regular payment of dividends, the progression of capex, and the continuation of share buyback.

However, the outbreak of the pandemic has obviously held back the development plans of the entire manufacturing sector. Therefore, it is time to provide an update of the indications about growth expectations for the next three years, as disclosed on 14/2/2020.

Considering that the growth strategy remains unchanged, and that Interpump's growth potential was not harmed in any way by the facts of 2020, the company deems appropriate to reiterate the same expectations, rolled forward one year.

Specifically, for the three years from 31/12/2020 to 31/12/2023:

  • 1) solid growth of total sales (in the neighborhood of +33%), from both organic growth and M&A;
  • 2) preservation of excellence in profitability with an EBITDA margin in the neighborhood of 22% (also considering the possibility of a momentary dilution brought about by acquisitions);
  • 3) continued prudent use of financial leverage (total debt between 1 and 1.5 times yearly EBITDA).

Pursuant to Article 65-bis, paragraph 2 of Consob Deliberation 11971/1999 as modified and supplemented, the Interim Report at 31 December 2020 is available to the public at the Group's registered office and may be also be consulted on the "Financial Statements and Reports" page in the "Investor relations" section of the Group's website www.interpumpgroup.it, as well on the repository.
