| Testo del comunicato |
Vedi allegato.

The Board of Directors has today approved the consolidated financial statements as at June 30th 2019.
IRCE Group's (hereinafter also the "Group") first six months of 2019 closed with a net profit of € 2.60 million.
Consolidated turnover was € 170.45 million, down by 11.5% compared to € 192.51 million of first half of 2018. The reduction is linked to the decline of the turnover without metal and to the decrease of the LME average copper price in the first half of 4.5%, compared to the same half of last year.
Sales show a reduction in both sectors in which the company operates as occurred in the first part of the year. In the winding wire sector, the decline on the European market is partly offset by sales on outside European markets. In the cable sector, the important drop is concentrated on the Italian market.
The results are shown in the following table.
| Consolidated income statement data | st half-year 2019 | st half-year 2018 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| (€/million) | 1 | 1 | |
| Turnover1 | 170.45 | 192.51 | (22.06) |
| Turnover without metal2 | 38.87 | 42.29 | (3.42) |
| EBITDA3 | 5.46 | 10.42 | (4.96) |
| EBIT | 1.93 | 6.52 | (4.59) |
| Profit before taxes | 3.25 | 8.17 | (4.92) |
| Net Profit / (Loss) of the period | 2.60 | 4.98 | (2.38) |
| Adjusted EBITDA4 | 6.60 | 11.92 | (5.32) |
| Adjusted EBIT4 | 3.07 | 8.02 | (4.95) |
| Consolidated statement of financial position data (€/million) |
As of 30.06.2019 | As of 31.12.2018 | Change |
| Net invested capital | 195.42 | 191.01 | 4.41 |
| Shareholders' Equity | 133.32 | 131.30 | 2.02 |
| Net financial debt | 62.10 | 59.71 | 2.39 |
1 The item "Turnover" represents the "Revenues" reported in the income statement.
2 Turnover without metal corresponds to the total turnover less the metal component.
3 EBITDA is a performance indicator used by the Management of the Group in order to assess the operating performance of the company and is not identified as an accounting item within IFRS; it is calculated by IRCE S.p.A. by adding amortisation/depreciation, allocations and write-downs to EBIT.
4 Adjusted EBITDA and EBIT are respectively calculated as the sum of EBITDA and EBIT and the income/charges from operations on copper derivatives transactions (€ +1.14 million in the 1° half-year 2019 and € +1.50 million in the 1° half-year 2018). These indicators are used by the Management of the Group in order to monitor and assess the operational performance of the Group and are not identified as accounting items within IFRS. Given that the composition of these measures is not regulated by the reference accounting standards, the criterion used by the Group could potentially not be consistent with that adopted by others and therefore not be comparable.
Consolidated net financial debt, at the end of June 2019, was € 62.10 million, up from € 59.71 million at the end of 2018, due to the increase of the net working capital.
The Group's investments, in the first half 2019, were € 1.43 million and mainly concerned IRCE SpA.
In the short term, we do not foresee changes in the general economy conditions. In any case, for the second part of the year, IRCE expects positive results.
The manager responsible for preparing the company's financial reports, Elena Casadio, declares, pursuant to paragraph 2 of Article 154-bis of the Consolidated Law on Finance that the accounting information contained in this press release corresponds to our books and accounting records.
