In a situation still characterised by uncertainties linked with the macro-economic scenario and the market of reference, the Landi Group recorded consolidated revenues of Euro 45,558 thousand in the first quarter of 2015, down Euro 2,565 thousand on the same period the previous year.
The revenues substantially held up: their decrease in percentage, amounting at -5.3%, fits in a situation characterised by a heavy drop in average oil prices, down around 50% on the first quarter of 2014, with direct impacts on the prices of traditional fuels and, consequently, a lower economic benefit in conversion of cars to alternative fuels.
Performance of the automotive sector in the first quarter of 2015 otherwise shows a positive trend, with an increase in registrations of new cars, according to Anfia data, in both Europe (+8.5%) and Italy (+13.5%); there was also 16% market growth in sales of OEM bifuel cars in Italy.
The following table sets out the main economic indicators of the Group for the first quarter of 2015 compared with the first quarter of 2014.

| Net Profit (Loss) of the Group | -2,754 | -6.0% | -2,501 | -5.2% | -253 | n.a. |
Performance was in line with the budget forecasts for the year, remembering that the first quarter is historically the weakest in terms of sales volumes.
Commencing from the six-monthly Financial Report as at 30 June 2014, the tables showing breakdown of revenues by business segment show a revised breakdown of revenues compared to previous periods. This division follows the "management approach", on which IFRS 8 is based. According to this accounting standard, the segments must be shown in relation to the organisational structure and internal reporting used by management to measure performance and manage it.
In particular, the gas sector is composed of "systems for cars" and "distribution systems" sub-segments, while in previous annual and interim Financial Reports, this sector was divided into LPG and Methane lines. The current layout shows the two LNG and Methane lines in the "car systems" division and now includes revenues from sale of compressors for fuel stations obtained by Safe S.p.A., (previously included in the "Other business" division) in
the "distribution systems" division. This reclassification satisfies the requirements of more appropriate alignment of the assets of the business structure and organisation within the Group.
Due to said reclassification, sales of compressors for fuel stations are not included in other divisions, compared with previous years.
The following table provides a breakdown of the item revenues on sales and services by business segment for each of the periods in question. The figures for the first quarter of 2014 have been duly reclassified.

(*) the Aquatronics division was sold on 1 April 2014
Net Revenues of the Group in the first quarter of 2015 amounted to Euro 45,558 thousand (Euro 48,123 thousand at 31 March 2014), a decrease of 5.3% compared with the same period in 2014. In detail:
Revenues for the gas sector decreased from Euro 44,746 thousand in the first quarter of 2014 to Euro 42,592 thousand, a 4.8% decrease.
Revenues from sales in the gas – car systems sector decreased from Euro 39,589 thousand in the first quarter of 2014 to Euro 38,021 thousand, a 4% decrease, mainly in the After Market channel, but partially offset by positive performance of the OEM channel.
There was a Euro 586 thousand decrease in sales in the gas – distribution systems sector and a Euro 411 thousand decrease in revenues on sales of other departments.
Considering that the principal source of risks and benefits is connected with the activity carried out and that the structure of the internal reporting uses a single activity segment, it is not considered necessary to provide further specifications regarding the gas sector since it coincides substantially with those of the entire company.
Distribution of sales by geographical area in 2015 is shown in the table below.

Analysing the geographical distribution of revenues, during the first quarter of 2015, the Landi Group realized 79.1% of its consolidated revenues abroad (48% in Europe and 31.1% outside Europe). In detail:
The main factors that affected sales in Italy in the first quarter, down 13% compared with the same period of 2014, for both sales of LPG and methane systems and for electronic components, were the downturn in transformations on the After Market and more competition in the sector. According to data processed by Consorzio Ecogas, this sector registered a 24% reduction in conversions compared with the previous year. In spite of this decrease, the Landi Group's domestic market share on the After Market channel at the end of the period is close to 33%.
With reference to OEM bifuel registrations, the sales mix of new vehicles equipped with LPG and Methane systems registered 16% growth compared with the same period of 2014.
Revenues in Europe were stable at a total of Euro 21,862 thousand, in line with the figure registered in the first quarter of 2014 (Euro 21,728 thousand);
Sales on the American market of Euro 8,016 thousand increased by 7.4%, due to the growth in Latin America, particularly Brazil and Argentina.
Compared with the same quarter of 2014, there was a 22.9% decrease for the Asia and Rest of the World markets, substantially due to the weak demand figures in some parts of the Far East and South-West Asia, where positive expectations for the market nonetheless remain.
In the first quarter of 2015, the Gross Operating Profit (GOP) was positive for Euro 43 thousand, a decrease of Euro 1,474 thousand compared with the same period in 2014 (positive for Euro 1,517 thousand). Although cost reduction actions continued, the decrease in the profit margin in the first quarter of 2015 is attributable principally to the lower volumes of sales registered in the period and to the different sales mix.
Costs of raw materials, consumables and goods and changes in inventories decreased overall from Euro 20,518 thousand in the first quarter of 2014 to Euro 19,852 thousand in the first quarter of 2015, recording a decrease of Euro 666 thousand in absolute terms, as a result of the decrease in sales volumes.
Costs for services and use of third party assets decreased from Euro 14,848 thousand at 31 March, 2014, to Euro 14,327 thousand at 31 March, 2015, primarily due to lower direct industrial costs.
Personnel costs of Euro 10,929 thousand were also substantially stable with respect to the same period of 2014 in this quarter of 2015 (Euro 10,645 thousand), as was the total workforce employed by the Group, which is 901 employees.
The Operating Profit was negative for Euro -3,835 thousand, a decrease of Euro 1,625 thousand compared with the same item for the previous year, after entry into accounts of quarterly depreciation totalling Euro 3,878 thousand (Euro 3,727 thousand at 31 March 2014).
The result before tax is negative at Euro -3,491 thousand, compared with a pre-tax result equal to Euro -2,968 thousand in the first quarter of 2014.
Net financial charges of Euro 684 thousand, of which Euro 615 thousand are interest charges, Euro 184 thousand is commission payable and Euro 115 thousand is interest income, decreased by Euro 241 thousand compared with the first quarter of 2014. This decrease is attributable to the lower interest rates on current loans and a reduction on bank commission costs on financial transactions.
Exchange gains, mainly from valuation, totalled Euro 1,024 thousand, compared with Euro 167 thousand registered in the first quarter of 2014.
The Net Result of the Group in the first quarter of 2015 showed losses of Euro 2,754 thousand, compared with Losses for the Group of Euro 2,501 thousand in the same period of 2014.

The net financial position at 31 March 2015 is negative for Euro -58,219 thousand, compared with a negative net financial position at 31 December 2014 of Euro -47,246 thousand (Euro -56,081 thousand at 31 March 2014).
Again with reference to 31 March 2015, the percentage ratio between net financial indebtedness and group
equity is 55%.
The medium-term repayments on loans with financial covenants were stated under current liabilities at 31 March 2014, in accordance with the accounting standards of reference, due to misalignments with the parameters set. In view of satisfaction of the contractual financial covenants, starting from the Interim Report at 30 June 2014, said repayments were reclassified under non-current liabilities and there were also no misalignments with the financial covenants in the first quarter of 2015.
The cash flow from operating activities at 31 March, 2015, as indicated in the Cash Flow Statement, was negative for Euro 7,833 thousand; investment activities lead to absorption of cash totalling Euro 3,774 thousand, while the cash flow absorbed by financing activities was positive and totalled Euro 1,741 thousand.
Net operating capital in the first quarter of 2015 was Euro 55,490 thousand. There was an increase of over Euro 8 million compared with 31 December 2014, due mainly to the increase in closing inventories. In percentage terms, compared with rolling turnover on 12 months, this item increased from 20.3% at the end of 2014 to the current 24.1% (25.5% at 31 March 2014).
Closing inventories and work in progress on orders, totalling Euro 75,594 thousand, increased by 14.8% compared with the end of the previous year, particularly for the products under process and finished products categories, in view of sales for the subsequent quarters. The increase in stocks was partially offset by the increase in trade payables, which increased by 7%, from Euro 55,936 thousand at 31 December, 2014, to Euro 59,875 thousand at 31 March, 2015.
Trade receivables at 31 March 2015, totalling Euro 35,828 thousand, were basically in line with the figure for 31 December 2014, despite less use of factoring without recourse, with credit maturity totalling Euro 29,409 thousand (Euro 32,580 thousand at 31 December 2014).

Investments in intangible assets totalled Euro 1,163 thousand (Euro 779 thousand in March 2014) and refer mainly to the capitalization of costs for development projects meeting the requirements of IAS 38 in order to be stated under net assets.
In the first quarter of 2015, Landi Renzo S.p.A. generated revenues of Euro 21,485 thousand, compared with Euro 21,296 thousand in 2014. The Gross Operating Profit was negative and totalled Euro -718 thousand, a decrease of Euro 119 thousand compared with the figure at 31 March 2014.

In April, the Group published the 2014 Sustainability Report, in order to strengthen the dialogue with stakeholders, as it is fully aware that day-to-day activities directed towards sustainability is a means of creating value not only for companies but, in a wider view, for the community as a whole and for stakeholders with whom the Group interacts.
Even considering the short visibility currently guaranteed by the Group's orders on hand and the ongoing of situations of tension due to macroeconomic and geopolitical factors in some reference markets for the sector, the Group confirms forecast results for 2015 full year substantially held up with those one of 2014. The Group will continue to pay the utmost attention to operational and management costs control, as well as to monitor the evolution of the economic and financial ratios.
Cavriago, 13 May 2015
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Stefano Landi
The interim management report at 31 March, 2015, which has not been audited, was prepared in compliance with art. 154-c of Legislative Decree no. 58 of 24 February, 1998, as amended, and with the Issuer Regulations issued by the CONSOB. Therefore, the provisions of the international accounting principle relating to infraannual financial information (IAS 34 – Intermediate Financial Statements) were not adopted.
The interim management report at March 31, 2015, was prepared in accordance with international accounting standards (IAS/IFRS). To this end, the separate interim financial statements of the Italian and foreign subsidiaries have been reclassified and adjusted accordingly.
They are consolidated on a line-by-line basis to include all assets and liabilities in their entirety. The company Krishna Landi Renzo India Private LTD Held is consolidated with the equity method, due to its current system of governance, which reflects a joint control agreement classifiable as a "joint venture" according to international accounting standards.
The accounting policies adopted to prepare the interim consolidated financial statements for the first quarter closed on 31 March 2015 are the same as those used for the consolidated financial statements closed at 31 December 2014.
As well as the interim values at 31 March 2015 and 2014, the financial data for the period closed on 31 December 2014 is shown for the purpose of comparison .

The preparation of the interim management report requires the directors to apply accounting standards and methods that are sometimes based on difficult and subjective assessments and estimates based, in turn, on past experience and assumptions that are considered reasonable and realistic given the circumstances. Application of these estimates and assumptions affects the amounts presented in the financial statements, such as the Balance Sheet, Income Statement, Overall Income Statement, Cash Flow Statement and disclosures.
If in the future these estimates and assumptions, which are based on the best assessments made by the directors, should actually be different then they will be changed accordingly.
Some valuation processes, especially the more complex ones such as establishing any impairment of noncurrent assets, are normally carried out to a full extent only during preparation of the annual financial statements, when all the information that may be required is available, except for those cases in which there are impairment indicators that require an immediate assessment of possible losses in value.
The policies and principles of the Landi Renzo Group for the identification, management and control of risks related to the activity are described in detail in the Consolidated Annual Report at 31 December 2014, to which you may refer for a more complete description of such aspects.
The consolidation area includes the parent company Landi Renzo S.p.A. and the companies in which it holds a direct or indirect controlling stake according to IFRS/IAS.
The consolidation area has not changed compared with 31 December 2014, whereas, with respect to 31 March 2014, the quarter in question now includes the company Krishna Landi Renzo India Private LTD Held, consolidated using the equity method, and excludes the company Renzo Ve C.A.
Pursuant to art. 3 of Consob Resolution no. 18079 of 20 January, 2012, Landi Renzo S.p.A. has decided to adopt the opt-out system envisaged by arts. 70, paragraph 8, and 71, paragraph 1-b, of Consob regulation no. 11971/99 (and subsequent amendments and additions thereto), applying the possibility of derogating from the obligations of publication of the information documents envisaged by Annex 3B to said Consob Regulation, on occasion of significant mergers, demergers, increases in capital through contribution of goods in kind, acquisitions and disposals.
