2. Approval of 2021 Neodecortech Group Budget and update on 2020 pre-closure.
The Company also announces the approval of the 2021 Budget of the Neodecortech Group.
In the words of CEO Luigi Cologni: "Amid a highly challenging context and the ongoing health emergency, the Neodecortech Group confirms the strong resilience shown since June this year. The various lockdowns have given the home a new central role thanks to smart working. A trend that will most likely continue in 2021 if we look at our first quarter 2021 portfolio, which is above the past averages. That said, we have drawn up the 2021 Budget on two different scenarios (base case and -10% turnover on base case) depending on how quickly the effects of the pandemic are overcome.
As for the 2020 pre-closure, adds Mr. Cologni, the harsh situation created by the impact of Covid-19 and the related impacts on the second quarter of the year have been strongly mitigated. In the fourth quarter, as was the case in the third (see press release of 20 October 2020), the Group is producing at above past average rates, thanks also to the demand boosted by the mentioned new focus on home furnishings. We can therefore safely say that net revenue, EBITDA and Net Profit, as well as the NFP at end 2020 will outperform by far the estimates appearing in the base scenario underlying the updated 2020 Budget referred to in Section XI of the prospectus published on 21 May 2020 upon the Company's translisting from AIM Italia to the MTA.
To conclude, I'm delighted to confirm the full operation in 2020 of the new EOS and PPLF production lines; together with the 142 cm laminates line, they are receiving a great feedback from the market and will give a strong boost to the growth of the Company and of the Neodecortech Group in the coming years in terms of both turnover and margins."
3. Adoption of the Corporate Governance Code and of the "Operation of the Board of Directors" procedure; amendments to the Regulations of the Board Committees and to the procedure for Transactions with Related Parties adopted by the Company.
The Company complies with and has adopted, effective from 1 January 2021, the new Corporate Governance Code (hereinafter the "Code"), which is addressed to all companies with shares listed on the MTA managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A..
As envisaged by the Code, the Company has adopted a procedure named "Operation of the Board of Directors", which sets out, among other things, the rules of operation, as well as the manners in which the minutes of Board of Directors' meetings are taken, establishing the procedures on how disclosures provided by the directors are handled.
The Company also:
- approved a number of operating regulations of the Board Committees, which implemented certain substantive and formal amendments, also in view of the entry into force of the new Corporate Governance Code of Borsa Italiana S.p.A. scheduled to take effect from 1 January 2021.
- aligned the procedure for Transactions with Related Parties currently in place with the provisions of article 3 letter f) of the CONSOB Regulation on Transactions with Related Parties (resolution no. 17221 of 12.3.2010).
