NEW GOVERNANCE AND ORGANISATIONAL OPERATING MODEL |
NEW AND |
New Group Commercial Model Target Regions in our Global presence
New Group Commercial Approach Increasing effectiveness of Global commercial footprint
The new commercial approach will be based on
- ONE VOICE FINMECCANICA: Coherently with the divisionalisation process, Finmeccanica presence in the «target» markets will be unique («one voice») according to clearly defined roles and responsibilities and under the coordination of the Corporate Centre
- EFFICIENCY AND EFFECTIVENESS: The implementation of the New Model will rationalize Finmeccanica presence, reducing costs and leveraging on synergies and shared services
- "TAILORED" APPROACH: The idea is to replicate, at a country or region level, the new Group Organisational model, with a unique corporate presence («one roof»), conveniently tailored based on local laws and the kind of activity the Group has in the area
New Governance and New Group Organisational and Operating Model One single company
The new decentralized structure will provide the following benefits
- Greater ability to control by the Corporate Center
- Full accountability of the Divisions, profit centers with end to end responsibility, through decentralized operations
By
- Streamlining and empowerment
- Greater effectiveness and efficiency
- Reliability of the business results
- Shorter chain of ownership, fast decision-making and flexibility
- Greater integration and overcoming of overlaps
New Governance and New Group Organisational and Operating Model
Sectors: Finmeccanica presence in homogeneous business portfolios
- The 4 Sectors are part of the Finmeccanica Corporate Center and coordinate Subsidiary Companies/JV and related Divisions in terms of business, technologies and reference markets, playing a role of coordination and guidance
- In particular, they are equipped with streamlined structures, essential to the Sector's mission:
- Efficacy and consistency between Strategies and Investments, mainly those that are common to the various Divisions
- Engineering coordination
- Commercial effectiveness and coordination. Synergies especially regarding clients/markets shared by different Divisions
- Participation in assigning and overseeing the economic and financial objectives of the individual Divisions
- Optimal use of assets and resources that are shared and not divisible between Divisions that are also not to be replicated
- Participates in proposals associated with succession plans for management of the Sector and coordinated Divisions
Divisions: the pillars of the new Organisational and Operating Model
According to the new model each Division:
- Is a "profit center" overseeing one specific reference market with responsibility for the P&L
- Develops and manages its own business portfolio for the reference market with end-to-end responsibility on the key industrial processes
- Is founded on Business Units or Product/Program Units depending on the Divisions, and is provided with Technical Functions with which it maximizes functional synergies among the BU
- Ensures the Performance & Health of the Business Units and the Technical Functions with responsibility for the functioning of the Business/Functions matrix
- Maximizes the return on invested capital with responsibility to propose and optimize necessary investments
- Maximizes the return on human capital with responsibility for the effective and efficient use of resources available to the Division
- Is also provided with the Support Functions necessary to fulfil its role
- Is responsible for collaborating with the other Divisions and Subsidiary Companies/Joint Ventures on shared opportunities and initiatives
Delivering on our promises
- The execution of industrial strategy is on track on key industrial processes (Engineering, Supply Chain and Manufacturing)
- We are strengthening our financial structure
- Delivering continued momentum in our financial performance
- Increasing effectiveness of our global commercial footprint
- Continuing to create a more cohesive and effective Finmeccanica
...with a clear focus on creating value for our shareholders

AW169 achieved EASA certification in July 2015
- Lower orders YoY, as expected, as both Q1 and Q2 2014 benefitted from huge acquisitions (i.e. UK MoD and export)
- Q2 profitability slightly lower than last year, as expected, maintaining a strong RoS above 12%
- Continue to expect solid performance, with revenues in line and profitability steadily at double digit. Commercial success of AW169 and AW189 likely to be softened given the tough market conditions, especially in the Oil&Gas sector.

A new S/T and L/T Incentive Scheme focused on creating shareholders value
- Finmeccanica implemented a brand new Group remuneration policy as a key enabler of the cultural transformation
- The new Plan is now largely equity based and tightly linked to the medium and long-term objectives set out in the Group Industrial Plan
- Incentives are structured into a monetary component and a component expressed in Finmeccanica equity, with different mix depending on the managerial positions involved

- The payment of incentives is conditional on the achievement of three-year targets of:
- Relative Finmeccanica Total Shareholder Return (TSR) 50% of the maximum number of shares that can be assigned
- Return on Sales (ROS) 25% of the maximum number of shares that can be assigned
- Net Financial Position (NFP) 25% of the maximum number of shares that can be assigned
A new co-investment Plan
- Finmeccanica also introduced a new Co-Investment Plan for the conversion of a portion of the annual bonus (min 25%, max 100%) into ordinary Finmeccanica shares
- At the end of the three-years vesting period, provided that the performance threshold set in the shortterm variable remuneration scheme has been constantly achieved (so called "performance gate") (*), bonus shares ("matching shares") are to be assigned in the proportion of 1 bonus share for each 3 shares held
(*) The short-term variable incentive is subject to overall business profitability ratios ("performance gate"), the failure to achieve which entails the zeroing of the entire portion of bonus linked to financial/management objectives.
