Milan, 12 March 2026 – The Board of Directors of Orsero S.p.A. (Euronext STAR Milan, ORS:IM), held on today’s date, approved the consolidated financial results and separate draft financial statements at December 31, 2025.
Raffaella Orsero, Vice President and CEO of Orsero, commented: "We are very pleased to close the 2025 financial year, which saw strong revenue growth driven by the Distribution BU, thanks to the continued contribution of high value-added product categories including berries, kiwis, exotic fruits, citrus fruits, and fresh-cut products. These categories continue to be the main strength of our current portfolio and those on which we are focusing for future growth, in line with the Group's strategy of concentrating on higher-margin products with greater growth prospects in terms of consumption, serving all distribution channels with the right focus and dedication. Looking back at the progress made and the results achieved, I would like to emphasize that the success of the Group's strategy is also due to the constant commitment of all our people, who demonstrate great passion every day in achieving the set objectives.
The economic and financial objectives, such as those related to the Sustainability Plan, have been fully achieved in recent years, and this result is the outcome of great teamwork".
Matteo Colombini, Co-CEO and CFO of Orsero, added: "The 2025 economic results significantly exceed the Guidance targets in terms of economic scope, thanks to the excellent performance of the Distribution BU, which continues to be the driver of profitability and growth. Also noteworthy is the good performance of the Shipping BU, supported by a record loading factor. The Group's performance once again demonstrates the strength and efficiency of the business model and competitive positioning we have developed in recent years.
The strong operating cash flow intrinsic to the business allows us to continue with our ambitious growth plan, which looks ahead to 2026 with significant organic development projects in core markets, focusing on higher value-added products, and external expansion into new markets. We look forward to 2026 with great enthusiasm and are convinced that it will be a year of significant growth for the Group, albeit in a turbulent global environment, characterized by macroeconomic factors that are difficult to interpret and a high degree of uncertainty".

MAIN SIGNIFICANT EVENTS OCCURRED DURING FY 2025
On 29 April 2025, the Shareholders' Meeting resolved, among other things: (i) the approval of the financial statements as at 31 December 2024; (ii) the distribution of an ordinary dividend of € 0.50 per share for a total amount of approximately € 8.4 million, with payment date on May 14, 2025; (iii) the approval with a binding vote of the Remuneration Policy (Section I) pursuant to Art. 123-ter, paragraphs 3-bis and 3-ter, TUF and with an advisory vote, pursuant to Art. 123-ter, paragraph 6, TUF of the Remuneration Report (Section II) on the compensation paid in 2024; (iv) the renewal of the authorization to the Board of Directors to purchase ordinary treasury shares, also in several tranches, for a period of 18 months and for a maximum number of shares not exceeding the maximum countervalue of € 10.0 million and the authorization to dispose of treasury shares held without time limits and for all purposes permitted by law.
On 17 December 2025, the Parent Company signed a medium/long-term loan agreement for the period 2025-2031 for a total amount of € 90 million with a pool of leading European banks, which provides for two tranches that can be disbursed separately: Tranche A as a refinancing line for € 55 million, which involved the refinancing of the previous pool loan signed in 2022 (originally € 90 million and approximately € 50.7 million remaining), and Tranche B for a total of € 35 million as a line to support possible external growth operations of the Group. The interest rate on this loan is variable, based on the 6-month Euribor plus a margin, and repayment will take place by December 31, 2031, with a six-monthly amortization plan with constant capital. This agreement also provides for compliance with covenants, in line with those already applied to previous loans and at market conditions. The transaction in question allows the overall duration of the remaining medium-term debt relating to the Pool signed in 2022 to be extended until 2031 and confirms the solidity and lasting nature of relations with some of the leading European banking institutions.
