Piaggio Group

Article 154 ter, paragraph 5 of the Consolidated Law on Finance, as amended by Legislative Decree no. 25/2016, no longer requires issuers to publish an interim report on operations for the first and third quarters of the financial year. This law gives CONSOB the possibility of requiring issuers, on the outcome of a specific impact analysis and through its own regulations, to publish interim financial information in addition to the annual report and half-year financial report.
Considering the above, the Piaggio Group has decided to continue publishing its interim report on operations for the first and third quarters of each financial year on a voluntary basis, to guarantee continual, regular disclosure to the financial community.

We are dedicated to the mobility of people and things through high-value products and services that redesign and improve our lifestyles.

We are committed to broadening the horizons of our brands and products by constantly promoting technological innovation, uniqueness of design, attention to quality and safety, respecting communities and the environment.

We are customer-driven. The customer's satisfaction, safety, pleasure and emotions come first. We develop products to customer requirements, accompanying the changes in the ecosystem within which customers move.
We believe in people as our fundamental heritage, in their skills and genius, and we do so consistently with our deepest values, such as integrity, transparency, equal opportunities, respect for individual dignity and diversity.

For these reasons, we are not just vehicle manufacturers.
Through technological and social progress, we champion global mobility, in a responsible and sustainable way. Our aim is to make the quality of our life and that of future generations better.


At the end of March 2022, the epidemiological situation had generally improved, with various governments gradually withdrawing the extraordinary measures adopted in the last few years to counteract the spread of the virus.
The only area which is still a cause for concern is China, where, in the face of an increase in cases, government authorities have issued lockdown measures in some regions.
The Group is closely monitoring developments in the situation and will take all possible precautions to guarantee employees' health at its sites and its commitments made with the sales network and with customers.
The pandemic has made the need for safe personal transport increasingly important among the population – to the detriment of public transport, which is seen as a potential vector of transmission.
The Group will continue to work to seize the opportunities presented by potential growth in demand, offering products that guarantee safe travel with low or no environmental impact.
The Piaggio Group is following with considerable attention developments in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which has triggered increases in commodity and energy costs, could have significant repercussions on the world economy, also following the sanctions already in force or still being defined. The extreme geographical diversification of the Group's sales and purchases means that it has basically no exposure in the conflict area.

20 January 2022 - The Piaggio Group presented the results of a new study that explores and analyses the value of the Vespa brand, identifying it as a key asset in its portfolio. The study conducted by Interbrand, a global leader in brand consultancy, indicates Vespa as "a unique and globally recognised brand, thanks to its perfect combination of design, lifestyle and Italian tradition" and attests to the economic value of the Vespa brand of €906 million.
7 February 2022 - The placement with European and Asian banks of a loan on the Schuldschein market for a total of €115 million was completed. The transaction launched in October 2021 for an initial amount of €50 million was increased in relation to the amount of orders collected. This was an important transaction for Piaggio on the Schuldschein market, both for the uptake and the qualifying structure of the 3, 5 and 7 year maturities. The financing will be used to refinance maturing debt by contributing to the diversification of lenders as well as strengthening the solid liquidity profile thanks to a longer average duration of debt.
10 March 2022 - The Piaggio Group and Santander Consumer Finance (Santander) signed a longterm global collaboration agreement, for the development of financial retail services to support the Piaggio Group's sales structure and distribution network on local markets.
18 March 2022 - On the occasion of the first MotoGP race in Indonesia, the Piaggio Group announced the development of a new plant in Jakarta, which will be built on an area of 55,000 square metres, and is expected to be inaugurated by the end of the year. At the same time, the Group presented the new Aprilia SR GT scooter to Asian markets at the Lombok circuit.
25 March 2022 - During celebrations to mark the 30th anniversary party of the National Territorial Emergency Services, the Piaggio MP3 Life Support three-wheeler scooter was presented to the Italian Red Cross (CRI). The Piaggio MP3 Life Support is already used by the national territorial emergency services in several countries, including the United Kingdom, France, Australia, and Israel which, with more than 650 vehicles available, has made this vehicle the leading light of its Emergency Response fleet.

In terms of consolidated turnover, the Group closed the first three months of 2022 with higher net revenues compared to the same period of 2021 (+18.5%).
As regards the type of products sold, the increase mainly referred to two-wheeler vehicles (+26.0%).
Commercial Vehicles, on the other hand, recorded a decrease (-6.8%) following the difficulties on the Indian market as a result of the downturn in the cargo segment. As a result, the percentage of Commercial Vehicles accounting for overall turnover went down from 22.8% in the first three months of 2021 to the current figure of 18.0%; vice versa, the percentage of Two-Wheeler vehicles accounting for overall turnover rose from 77.2% in the first three months of 2021 to the current figure of 82.0%.

Operating expenses incurred in the period went up compared to the same period of the previous financial year (+1.7%), amounting to €89.1 million. This performance is closely linked to the increase in turnover and vehicles sold.
The above-described change in the income statement resulted in an increase in consolidated EBITDA, which stood at €60.1 million (€56.0 million in the first three months of 2021). In relation to turnover, EBITDA was equal to 13.2% (14.6% in the first three months of 2021).

The result of financial items recorded Net Charges of €7.2 million (€5.0 million in the first three months of 2021). The deterioration was mainly due to the negative impact of currency management.
Income taxes for the period amounted to €7.8 million, equivalent to 38% of profit before tax.
Net profit stood at €12.7 million (2.8% of turnover), up on the figure for the same period of the previous financial year, when it amounted to €11.1 million (2.9% of turnover).

Two-wheeler vehicles can mainly be grouped into two product segments, scooters and motorcycles. In addition to the related spare parts and accessories business, the sale of engines to third parties, involvement in main two-wheeler sports championships and technical service.

The world two-wheeler market comprises two macro areas, which clearly differ in terms of characteristics and scale of demand: economically advanced countries (Europe, United States, Japan) and emerging nations (Asia Pacific, China, India, Latin America).
In the first macro area, which is a minority segment in terms of volumes, the Piaggio Group has a historical presence, with scooters meeting the need for mobility in urban areas and motorcycles for recreational purposes.

The Commercial Vehicles category includes three- and four-wheelers with a maximum mass below 3.5 tons (category N1 in Europe) designed for commercial and private use, and related spare parts and accessories.
In the first three months of 2022, registrations on the European market (including the UK) of light commercial vehicles (gross vehicle weight less than or equal to 3.5 tons), in which the Piaggio Group operates, decreased by 21.7% (data source ACEA).

Sales on the Indian three-wheeler market, where Piaggio Vehicles Private Limited, a subsidiary of Piaggio & C. S.p.A. operates, went down from 86,760 units in the first three months of 2021 to 83,218 units in the same period of 2022, registering a 4.1% decrease. On this market, the fall was due entirely to the cargo vehicles segment, which recorded a considerable drop in units (-21.3%) from 29,080 in the first three months of 2021 to 22,890 units in the first three months of 2022. The passenger vehicle segment, on the other hand, grew by 4.6%, from 57,680 units in the first quarter of 2021 to 60,328 units in the first three months of 2022.

During the first three months of 2022, the Commercial vehicles business generated a turnover of approximately €81.8 million, down by 6.8% compared to the same period of the previous year.
The decline was caused by the drop in India (-16.5%; -20.3% at constant exchange rates) following a 27.8% drop in volumes.
The Indian affiliate Piaggio Vehicles Private Limited (PVPL) sold 13,977 three-wheelers on the Indian market (21,804 in the first three months of 2021).
The Indian affiliate also exported 5,836 three-wheeler vehicles (5,653 in the first quarter of 2021).
The Emea and Americas area, on the other hand, showed a positive trend in turnover (+13.2%) despite the decline in volumes (-32.5%).
The Piaggio Group operates in Europe and India on the light commercial vehicles market, with products designed for short-range mobility in urban areas (European urban centres) and suburban areas (the product range for India).
The Group is also present in India, in the passenger vehicle and cargo sub-segments of the threewheeler market, where it is market leader.
On the Indian three-wheeler market, Piaggio has a market share of 16.8% (25.1% in the first quarter of 2021). Detailed analysis of the market shows that Piaggio lost its leadership position in the goods transport segment (cargo segment) with a share of 32.2% (37.8% in the first three months of 2021).

3 April 2022 - Aprilia triumphed in the Argentine Grand Prix, with Aleix Espargarò taking the first victory in the MotoGP class. For the Noale manufacturer, one of the most successful brands in the history of motorcycling, this was the 295th victory in the World Championship, the first in the new four-stroke era of top two-wheeler competition after the countless successes in the 125 and 250cc classes.
20 April 2022 - pre-booking of the exclusive Vespa Sprint designed by international pop star Justin Bieber was launched. The JUSTIN BIEBER X VESPA is available in 50, 125 and 150cc engine versions.

Despite forecasts that are still complex overall, because of ongoing critical aspects concerning commodity price increases, logistics, geopolitical tensions and developments in the pandemic, Piaggio will continue its growth path, thanks to a portfolio of brands unique in the world, confirming planned investments in new products and new plants and strengthening its commitment to ESG issues.
In this general framework, the Group will continue to work as always to meet its commitments and objectives, maintaining a constant focus on the efficient management of its economic and financial structure, to respond flexibly and immediately to the challenges of the coming months.

Piaggio & C. S.p.A. (the Company) is a joint-stock company established in Italy at the Register of Companies of Pisa. The address of the registered office is Viale Rinaldo Piaggio 25 - Pontedera (Pisa). The main activities of the company and its subsidiaries are set out in the Report on Operations.
These Financial Statements are expressed in Euros (€) since this is the currency in which most of the Group's transactions take place. Transactions in foreign currency are recorded at the exchange rate in effect on the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the reporting date.
The scope of consolidation is unchanged from the consolidated financial statements as of 31 December 2021 and 31 March 2021.
These Condensed Interim Financial Statements have been drafted in compliance with the International Accounting Standards (IAS/IFRS) in force at that date, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and endorsed by the European Commission, as well as in compliance with the provisions established in Article 9 of Legislative Decree no. 38/2005 (CONSOB Resolution no. 15519 dated 27 July 2006 containing the "Provisions for the presentation of financial statements", CONSOB Resolution no. 15520 dated 27 July 2006 containing the "Changes and additions to the Regulation on Issuers adopted by Resolution no. 11971/99", CONSOB communication no. 6064293 dated 28 July 2006 containing the "Corporate reporting required in accordance with Article 114, paragraph 5 of Legislative Decree 58/98"). The interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"), previously the Standing Interpretations Committee ("SIC"), were also taken into account.
During the drafting of these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial statements, prepared in compliance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, the same accounting standards adopted in the drafting of the Consolidated Financial Statements as of 31 December 2021 were applied, with the exception of the paragraph "New accounting standards, amendments and interpretations applied as from 1 January 2022". The information provided in the Interim Report should be read together with the Consolidated Financial Statements as of 31 December 2021, prepared according to IFRS.
The preparation of the interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions which have an impact on the values of revenues, costs, consolidated balance sheet assets and liabilities and on the information regarding contingent assets and liabilities at the

reporting date. If these management estimates and assumptions should, in future, differ from the actual situation, they will be changed as appropriate in the period in which the circumstances change. For a more detailed description of the most significant measurement methods of the Group, reference is made to the section "Use of estimates" of the Consolidated Financial Statements as of 31 December 2021.
It should also be noted that some assessment processes, in particular the most complex ones such as establishing any impairment of fixed assets, are generally undertaken in full only when preparing the annual financial statements, when all the potentially necessary information is available, except in cases where there are indications of impairment which require an immediate assessment of any impairment loss.
The Group's activities, especially those regarding two-wheeler products, are subject to significant seasonal changes in sales during the year.
Income tax is recognised on the basis of the best estimate of the average weighted tax rate for the entire financial period.
In May 2020, the IASB published some limited-scope amendments to IFRS 3, IAS 16, IAS 37 and some annual revisions of IFSR 1, IFRS 9, IAS 41 and IFRS 16.
In March 2021, the IASB published amendments to IFRS 16 that move the final date from 30 June 2021 to 30 June 2022, for a practical expedient for measuring leases where renegotiated lease payments have been made as a result of COVID-19. The lessee may opt to recognise the concession in the accounts as a variable lease payment in the period when a lower payment is recognised.
The application of the new amendments did not have a significant impact on values or on the financial statements.
At the date of these Financial Statements, competent bodies of the European Union had not completed the approval process necessary for the application of the following accounting standards and amendments:

The Company will adopt these new standards, amendments and interpretations, based on the application date indicated, and will evaluate potential impact, when the standards, amendments and interpretations are endorsed by the European Union.
A specific paragraph in this Report provides information on any significant events occurring after the end of the period and on the expected operating outlook.

This item, consisting mainly of increases in fixed assets for internal work and of recoveries of costs re-invoiced to customers, went up compared to the first quarter of 2021.
Revenues include €/000 1,949 in subsidies from the Indian government given to the affiliate Piaggio Vehicles Private Limited for investments made in during previous years and recognised in the income statement in proportion to the depreciation and amortisation of assets for which the grant was given. The recognition of these amounts is supported by appropriate documentation received from the Government of India, certifying that the entitlement has been recognised and therefore that collection is reasonably certain.
This item, mainly comprising the impairment of trade receivables in current assets, showed fewer costs of €/000 55 compared to the first three months of 2021.
The item shows a trend almost in line with the same period of the previous year.
Expenses refer to the portion of loss attributable to the Group from the Zongshen Piaggio Foshan Motorcycle Co. Ltd. joint venture, valued at equity.

€/000 (972)
The balance of financial income (expenses) for the first three months of 2022 was negative by €/000 7,172, worsening compared to the values of the corresponding period of the previous year (€000 5,092) mainly due to the negative impact of currency management.
Income tax for the period, determined based on IAS 34, is estimated by applying a rate of 38.0% to profit before tax, equivalent to the best estimate of the weighted average rate predicted for the financial year.
At the end of the reporting period, there were no gains or losses from assets held for disposal or sale.
Earnings per share are calculated as follows:
| 1st Quarter 2022 |
1st Quarter 2021 |
||
|---|---|---|---|
| Net profit | €/000 | 12,664 | 11,098 |

| Adjusted average number of ordinary shares | 357,086,845 | 357,124,826 | |
| Diluted earnings per ordinary share | € | 0.035 | 0.031 |

Intangible assets went up overall by €/000 453 mainly due to investments for the period which were only partially balanced by amortisation for the period.
Increases mainly refer to the capitalisation of development costs for new products and new engines, as well as the purchase of software.
In the first three months of 2022, borrowing costs for €/000 323 were capitalised.
The table below shows the breakdown of intangible assets as of 31 March 2022, as well as changes during the period.

Property, plant and equipment mainly refer to Group production facilities in Pontedera (Pisa), Noale and Scorzè (Venice), Mandello del Lario (Lecco), Baramati (India), Vinh Phuc (Vietnam) and Cikarang (Indonesia).
The increases mainly relate to moulds for new vehicles launched in the period and the construction of a new two-wheeler plant for the assembly of CKD6 in Indonesia.
Borrowing costs attributable to the construction of assets which require a considerable period of time to be ready for use are capitalised as a part of the cost of the actual assets.
In the first three months of 2022, borrowing costs for €/000 101 were capitalised.

As of 31 March 2022 no investment property was held.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised at their net value when they may be offset in the same tax jurisdiction.
As part of measurements to define deferred tax assets, the Group mainly considered the following:
In view of these considerations, and with a prudential approach, it was decided to not wholly recognise the tax benefits arising from losses that can be carried over and from temporary differences.

Medium and long-term bank debt amounts to €/000 332,078 (of which €/000 275,415 non-current and €/000 56,663 current) and consists of the following loans:
a €/000 15,690 medium-term loan (nominal value of €/000 15,715) from the European Investment Bank to finance Research & Development investments planned for the 2016- 2018 period. The loan is divided into two disbursements with a final maturity in February and December 2023 and a repayment schedule of 7 annual fixed-rate instalments. Contract terms require covenants (described below);


The Parent Company also has a revolving credit line for €/000 20,000 (undrawn at 31 March 2022) granted by Banca Intesa San Paolo maturing on 31 January 2024 and a revolving credit line for €/000 10,000 (undrawn at 31 March 2022) granted by Banca del Mezzogiorno maturing on 1 July 2022.
All the above financial liabilities are unsecured.
The item "Bonds" amounted to €/000 244,150 (nominal value of €/000 250,000) related to a highyield debenture loan issued on 30 April 2018 for a nominal amount of €/000 250,000, maturing on 30 April 2025 and with a semi-annual coupon with fixed annual nominal rate of 3.625%. Standard & Poor's and Moody's assigned a BB- rating with a stable outlook and a Ba3 rating with a stable outlook respectively.
It should be noted that the Company may repay in advance all or part of the High Yield bond issued on 30 April 2018 on the terms specified in the indenture. The value of prepayment options was not deducted from the original contract, as these are considered as being closely related to the host instrument, as provided for by IFRS 9 b4.3.5.
Financial advances received from factoring companies and banks, on the sale of trade receivables with recourse, totalled €/000 8,875.
Medium-/long-term payables to other lenders equal to €/000 318 of which €/000 247 maturing after the year and €/000 71 as the current portion refer to a loan from the Region of Tuscany, pursuant to regulations on incentives for investments in research and development.
In line with market practices for borrowers with a similar credit rating, main loan contracts require compliance with:
The measurement of financial covenants and other contract commitments is monitored by the Group on an ongoing basis.

The high yield debenture loan issued by the company in April 2018 provide for compliance with covenants which are typical of international practice on the high yield market. In particular, the company must observe the EBITDA/Net borrowing costs index, based on the threshold established in the Prospectus, to increase financial debt defined during issue. In addition, the Prospectus includes some obligations for the issuer, which limit, inter alia, the capacity to:
Failure to comply with the covenants and other contract commitments of the loan and debenture loan, if not remedied in agreed times, may give rise to an obligation for the early repayment of the outstanding amount of the loan.
As required by IFRS 16, financial liabilities for rights of use include financial lease liabilities as well as payments due on operating lease agreements.

The Group operates in an international context where transactions are conducted in currencies different from the Euro. This exposes the Group to risks arising from exchange-rate fluctuations. For this purpose, the Group has an exchange rate risk management policy which aims to neutralise the possible negative effects of the changes in exchange rates on company cash flows.
This policy analyses:
As of 31 March 2022, the Group had undertaken the following futures operations (recognised based on the settlement date), relating to payables and receivables already recognised to hedge the transaction exchange risk:

the translation exchange risk: arises from the translation into Euro of the financial statements of subsidiaries prepared in currencies other than the Euro during consolidation. The policy adopted by the Group does not require this type of exposure to be covered;
the economic exchange risk: arises from changes in company profitability in relation to annual figures planned in the economic budget on the basis of a reference change (the "budget change") and is covered by derivatives. The items of these hedging operations are therefore represented by foreign costs and revenues forecast by the sales and purchases budget. The total of forecast costs and revenues is processed monthly and associated hedging is positioned exactly on the average weighted date of the economic event, recalculated based on historical criteria. The economic occurrence of future receivables and payables will occur during the budget year.

As of 31 March 2022, the Group had the following transactions to hedge the exchange risk:
To hedge the economic exchange risk alone, cash flow hedging is adopted with the effective portion of profits and losses recognised in a specific shareholders' equity reserve. Fair value is determined based on market quotations provided by main traders.
As of 31 March 2022 the total fair value of hedging instruments for the economic exchange risk recognised on a hedge accounting basis was positive by €/000 8,260.
This risk arises from fluctuating interest rates and the impact this may have on future cash flows arising from variable rate financial assets and liabilities. The Group regularly measures and controls its exposure to the risk of interest rate changes, as established by its management policies, in order to reduce fluctuating borrowing costs, and limit the risk of a potential increase in interest rates. This objective is achieved through an adequate mix of fixed and variable rate exposure, and the use of derivatives, mainly interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps.
As of 31 March 2022, the following hedging derivatives were in use:
An Interest Rate Swap to hedge the variable-rate loan for a nominal amount of €/000 23,333 from Banco BPM. The purpose of this instrument is to manage and mitigate

exposure to interest rate risk; in accounting terms, the instrument is recognised on a cash flow hedge basis, with profits/losses arising from the fair value measurement allocated to a specific reserve in Shareholders' equity; as of 31 March 2022, the fair value of the instrument was positive by €/000 302.
In thousands of Euros Piaggio & C. S.p.A. Interest Rate Swap 302
FAIR VALUE
This risk arises from the possibility of changes in company profitability due to fluctuations in commodity prices (specifically platinum and palladium). The Group's objective is therefore to neutralise such possible adverse changes deriving from highly probable future transactions by compensating them with opposite variations related to the hedging instrument.
Cash flow hedging is adopted with this type of hedging, with the effective portion of profits and losses recognised in a specific shareholders' equity reserve. Fair value is determined based on market quotations provided by main traders.
As of 31 March 2022, the total fair value of hedging instruments for commodity price risk recognised on a hedge accounting basis was positive by €/000 292.

Piaggio & C. S.p.A. is subject to the management and coordination of IMMSI S.p.A. pursuant to Article 2497 and subsequent of the Italian Civil Code. During the period, management and coordination comprised the following activities:

In 2019, for a further three years, the Parent Company8 signed up to the National Consolidated Tax Mechanism pursuant to Articles 117 to 129 of the Consolidated Income Tax Act (T.U.I.R.) of which IMMSI S.p.A. is the consolidating company, and to whom other IMMSI Group companies report to. The consolidating company determines a single global income equal to the algebraic sum of taxable amounts (income or loss) realised by individual companies that opt for this type of group taxation.
The consolidating company recognises a receivable from the consolidated company which is equal to the corporate tax to be paid on the taxable income transferred by the latter. Whereas, in the case of companies reporting tax losses, the consolidating company recognises a payable related to corporate tax on the portion of loss actually used to determine global overall income, or calculated as a decrease of overall income for subsequent tax periods, according to the procedures in Article 84, based on the criterion established by the consolidation agreement.
Under the National Consolidated Tax Mechanism, companies may, pursuant to article 96 of Presidential Decree no. 917/86, allocate the excess of interest payable which is not deductible to one of the companies so that, up to the excess of Gross Operating Income produced in the same tax period by other subjects party to the consolidation, the amount may be used to reduce the total income of the Group.
Piaggio & C. S.p.A. has two office lease agreements with IMMSI, one for property in Via Broletto 13 in Milan, and the other for property in Via Abruzzi 25 in Rome. A part of the property in Via Broletto 13 in Milan is sub-leased by Piaggio & C. S.p.A. to Piaggio Concept Store Mantova Srl.
Piaggio & C. S.p.A. has undertaken a rental agreement for offices owned by Omniaholding S.p.A.. This agreement, signed in normal market conditions, was previously approved by the Related Parties Transactions Committee, as provided for by the procedure for transactions with related parties adopted by the Company.
Piaggio Concept Store Mantova Srl has a lease contract for its sales premises and workshop with Omniaholding S.p.A.. This agreement was signed in normal market conditions.
Pursuant to Article 2.6.2, section 13 of the Regulation of Stock Markets organised and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A., the conditions as of Article 37 of Consob regulation 16191/2007 exist.
