MACROECONOMIC AND MARKET SCENARIO
Economic Overview
Global economic performance during the first half-year was impacted by the Russian-Ukrainian crisis, and by heightened international geopolitical tensions and by the COVID emergency. The sanctions against Russia introduced by Western countries, the increase in energy prices, the discontinuity in international trade, the measures introduced by China to combat the pandemic and the volatility of the financial markets led to a significant slowdown in global economic growth (+2.7% for the second quarter).
Inflation rose everywhere, driving global consumer price growth to over +7.5% during the second quarter, fuelled by the aforementioned increase in energy prices and the further exacerbation of supply-side bottlenecks that had not yet normalised following the pandemic. Inflation, at its highest in the last 40 years, prompted the major central banks (USA, Eurozone, and UK) to adopt a restrictive monetary policy with consequent reductions in liquidity and increases in interest rates. Inflation in Asia remained relatively contained, and the central banks of Japan and China maintained an expansive monetary policy stance during the first half-year.

Consumer Prices, Change in Year-on-Year Percentages

Europe was strongly affected by tensions related to the war in Ukraine, recording a slowdown in domestic demand in the face of price increases for energy commodities, linked to uncertainties over the supply of Russian gas. Following first quarter growth (+5.5%) thanks to the complete elimination of lockdown measures GDP growth in the European Union slowed to +4.0% during the second quarter, with inflation touching 9.6% in June.
In the US, rising prices (+9.1% inflation for June) led the Fed to accelerate monetary tightening, suspending the purchase of securities on the market and raising interest rates four times during the first quarter. The reduction in household purchasing power and the increase in the cost of money impacted consumption and investments, while the strengthening of the US dollar weighed on exports. GDP growth fell to 1.6% for the second quarter compared to the same period of the previous year, and had fallen compared to the first quarter of 2022.

The measures introduced in China to counter the pandemic significantly dampened economic activity and internal domestic demand, with GDP growing by only +0.4% during the second quarter.
In Brazil, economic activity during the first half of the year was contained but in growth, especially in the industrial and services sectors due to improved mobility. The gradual rise in inflation and in interest rates since 2021 and during the first half-year, however weighed on retail sales, which gradually slowed.
Economic performance in Russia (an estimated -13.1% drop in GDP for the second quarter, 16% inflation for June), was impacted by international sanctions following the invasion of Ukraine, resulting in restrictions on foreign trade, and a block on the central bank's currency reserves and access to international markets.
Exchange Rates
The conflict between Russia and the Ukraine increased the volatility of the currency markets. The first half-year was characterised by an appreciation of the currencies of raw materials-exporting countries, and a depreciation of currencies exposed to the Russian market, especially importers of energy goods such as Europe.
The strengthening of the US dollar against the euro during the first half-year also reflected an expansion of expected growth and interest rate differentials between the US and the Eurozone. The euro/US dollar exchange rate averaged 1.09 for the first six months of 2022, with the US dollar appreciating by +10.2% compared to the same period of 2021.
The Chinese renminbi, which was stable against the US dollar, appreciated by +10.0% against the euro during the first half-year.
In Brazil, the central bank's interest rate hike to combat inflation, together with rising raw material prices, lent support to the Brazilian real, which appreciated by +5.8% against the US dollar and by +16.7% against the euro, during the first half-year.
The Russian rouble's performance was volatile for the course of the first half-year. The sanctions imposed by western countries drove the currency to above 130 roubles per US dollar during the first half of March, then depreciated for the second quarter, falling below the 60 roubles per US dollar threshold in June, thanks to checks on outgoing capital, and the sharp rises in the price of energy commodities, which supported export revenues. Despite the volatility, for the first half-year, the Russian rouble remained stable on average against the US dollar (a depreciation of -1.7%) and appreciated against the euro (+8.3% compared to the first half-year of 2021).

Raw Materials Prices
Raw materials prices, especially energy prices, experienced a very volatile trend in the first half-year of 2022, a trend that became more pronounced in the wake of the Russian-Ukrainian crisis.
Brent averaged US\$ 104.6 per barrel for the first half-year of 2022, up by +61% compared to an average price of approximately US\$ 65 per barrel for the first half-year of 2021. Daily prices exceeded US\$ 120 per barrel both in March immediately following the escalation of the Russian-Ukrainian crisis, and again in June following the confirmation of the embargo against Russian oil announced by the European Union which would come into effect at the end of 2022, before falling back to US\$ 100 per barrel in early July.
Even more volatile than the price of oil was the trend in the price of natural gas, which hit historic highs in Europe in the first half-year of 2022, especially in view of a possible suspension or reduction of supply from Russia to European countries. Rising prices at the end of the second quarter resulted in natural gas being quoted on the TTF Dutch exchange at an average of approximately euro 170 per Mwh (megawatt hour) during the first two weeks of July, compared to an average euro 100.7 per Mwh for the second quarter.
Supply shortages and the increased demand from the automotive industry boosted the price of butadiene in Europe for the first half-year of 2022. The average price stood at euro 1,210 per tonne, up by +54% compared to the average price recorded for the first half-year of 2021.
Natural rubber prices remained high during 2022, after prices recovered from the second half of 2021. For the first half-year of 2022, the price of natural rubber averaged US\$ 1,713 per tonne, an increase of +3% compared to the same period in 2021.

Trends in Car Tyre Markets
During the first half-year of 2022, the car tyre market declined by -1.4% globally. Volumes still remained below pre-pandemic levels (by approximately -8% compared to the first half-year of 2019). The decline seen in the Original Equipment channel was more pronounced than for the Replacement channel:
- -2.6% for Original Equipment for the first half-year (-1.5% for the second quarter), due to the drop in production in Russia from March onwards, and in China due to lockdowns which had curbed production from March to April, as well as the impact of the shortage of components for car production.
- -1.0% for the Replacement channel which was strongly influenced by the Chinese market trend during the second quarter caused by mobility restrictions.

Trends in Car Tyre Markets
Demand for Car ≥18" was more resilient, with growth of +5.5% compared to the first half-year of 2021 (+2.2% for Original Equipment, +7.7% for the Replacement channel), reaching well beyond pre-pandemic levels (+13.2% growth in overall demand, +1.1% for Original Equipment, and +22.8% for the Replacement channel compared to the first half-year of 2019), which was also supported by an improved parc mix.
Market demand for the Car ≤17" segment (-3.1% compared to the first half-year of 2021), still remained below pre-pandemic levels (-12.1% overall compared to the first quarter of 2019) in all regions.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS OF THE FIRST HALF-YEAR
On January 28, 2022 Pirelli launched the start of celebrations for the 150th anniversary of its foundation on January 28, 1872, with an event at the Piccolo Teatro in Milan.
On February 1, 2022 Pirelli was awarded Gold Class recognition in the 2022 Sustainability Yearbook published by S&P Global, which examined the sustainability profile of more than 7,500 companies. Pirelli obtained the "S&P Global Gold Class" recognition in the ranking that is carried out annually on the basis of the 2021 results of the Corporate Sustainability Assessment for the Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes of S&P Global, where Pirelli obtained a score of 77 points against a sector average of 31.
On February 21, 2022, Pirelli, in keeping with that which had been announced to the market on November 11, 2021, finalised the signing of a euro 1.6 billion five-year multi-currency bank credit facility with a pool of leading Italian and international banks.
The new credit facility, which is geared towards the Group's ESG objectives, has enabled:
- the repayment of debt maturing in June 2022 (approximately euro 950 million at December 31, 2021) by using euro 600 million from the new credit facility, and the remainder from the Company's liquidity;
- the replacement of euro 700 million from an available and unused credit facility maturing in June 2022, with euro 1 billion from the new credit facility, thereby increasing financial flexibility by euro 300 million.
This operation, which was finalised with improved terms and conditions than for the credit facilities that were replaced, (consistent with the provisions of the Company's plans) has allowed for the optimisation of the debt profile by extending maturity dates.
On February 23, 2022 Pirelli announced that it had been assigned an investment grade rating by S&P Global Ratings and Fitch Ratings. This follows the Company's request for a public rating, in keeping with the Group's objectives of optimising conditions of access to the credit market. Specifically, Fitch Ratings assigned Pirelli an Investment Grade rating of BBB- with a stable outlook, emphasising, amongst other things, the solidity of the Company's operating margins and its ability to generate cash flow, which make it possible to forecast a significant reduction in debt over the next two to three years. The agency highlighted Pirelli's leadership position in the Premium segment, its consolidated know-how for high-performance products, its exposure to aftermarket activities that are less volatile than that of the Standard segment and the reputation of its Brand. S&P Global Ratings assigned an Investment Grade rating of BBB- with a stable outlook, highlighting, amongst other things, the solid position Pirelli holds in the Premium and Prestige markets, its ability to efficiently utilise its manufacturing plants, which is reflected in an EBITDA margin that exceeds the sector average and the agency's expectation of continuous debt reduction, through the careful management of a solid free cash flow.
On February 23, 2022 Pirelli's Board of Directors approved, as part of the strategy to refinance and optimise the Company's financial structure, a new EMTN (Euro Medium Term Note) programme for the issue of senior unsecured non-convertible bond loans for a maximum countervalue of euro 2 billion to replace the previous euro 2 billion EMTN programme approved on December 21, 2017.

As part of this programme, on the same date, the Board of Directors authorised the issuance, to be executed within 12 months of the completion of the documentation, of one or more bond loans, to be placed with institutional investors, for a total maximum amount of up to euro 1 billion.
On March 4, 2022 Pirelli announced that it would donate euro 500 thousand to help Ukrainian refugees affected by the war, and also made a current account available to employees for the collection of their donations.
On March 17, 2022 Pirelli's Board of Directors approved and endorsed the consolidated results at December 31, 2021, which had already been disclosed to the market in a preliminary, unaudited form on February 23. The financial year ended with a consolidated net income of euro 321.6 million (euro 42.7 million for the 2020 financial year), and a net income for the Parent Company Pirelli & C. S.p.A. of euro 216.6 million (euro 44.0 million for the corresponding period of 2020). In accordance with the dividend policy of the 2021-2022|2025 Industrial Plan, the Board of Directors proposed the distribution of a dividend of euro 0.161 per share for a total of euro 161 million, to the Shareholders' Meeting.
On May 9, 2022 Pirelli announced that the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) had validated the upgrade of Pirelli's greenhouse gas emission reduction targets, which by the end of 2021 had reached the previous targets validated by SBTi for Scope 1 and 2, four years ahead of schedule. The new targets include measures consistent with keeping climate warming "within 1.5°C", compared to the previous scenario that envisaged staying "well below 2°C".
In particular, SBTi - which defines and promotes science-based best practices for reducing emissions - has validated Pirelli's targets of a 42% reduction in absolute greenhouse gas emissions (Scope 1 and 2) by 2025 compared to 2015, and a 9% reduction in absolute greenhouse gas emissions from raw materials purchased, by 2025 compared to 2018 (Scope 3).
On May 10, 2022 Pirelli's Board of Directors co-opted Yang Shihao to replace Yang Xingqiang, who resigned on April 28, 2022. The Board of Directors also proceeded to appoint Yang Shihao qualified by the Board as a non-executive Director - as a member of the Strategies Committee. Yang Shihao, whose curriculum vitae is available on the www.pirelli.com website, at the date of the appointment did not possess the requisites to qualify as independent, pursuant to the Italian Consolidated Law on Financial Intermediation (TUF) and the Corporate Governance Code, and did not hold any shares in the Company.
On May 18, 2022, the Pirelli's Shareholders' Meeting (convened on April 13, 2022), which was attended by 83.68% of the voting capital, approved - with more than 99.9% of the capital represented - the financial statements for the 2021 financial year, and resolved to distribute a dividend of euro 0.161 per ordinary share, equal to a total dividend pay-out of euro 161 million before withholding taxes. The dividend was placed for payment on May 25, 2022 (with an ex-dividend date of May 23 and a record date of May 24). The Shareholders' Meeting also approved the remuneration policy for 2022 (with 85.19% of the capital present) and gave its favourable opinion (with 84.54% of the capital present) on the Report on remunerations paid in the 2021 financial year. The Shareholders' Meeting also approved (with 88.31% of the capital present) the adoption of the monetary incentive Plan for the 2022-2024 three-year period aimed at the Group's management in

general. Lastly, the Shareholders' Meeting approved (with 85.62% of the capital present) the mechanisms for the possible adjustment of the sole quantification of the targets included in the monetary incentive plans for the three-year periods of 2020-2022 and 2021-2023, consistent with the provisions of the remuneration policy for 2022.
On May 23, 2022, with reference to the non-interest-bearing "EUR 500 million Senior Unsecured Guaranteed Equity-linked Bonds due 2025", Pirelli & C. S.p.A. announced that - following the resolution of the Shareholders' Meeting of May 18, 2022 to distribute a dividend of euro 0.161 per ordinary share - the conversion price of the bonds was changed from euro 6.235 to euro 6.1395, in accordance with the regulations of the bond loan itself, effective May 23, 2022.
On June 22, 2022, Pirelli's Board of Directors approved the signing with a selected pool of international banks of a "sustainability-linked" credit facility for an amount of up to euro 400 million with a maturity of 19 months, which will further optimise the Group's financial structure. The new credit facility, which will be used to repay part of the debt maturing in 2023, helps to preserve the liquidity margin, with debt maturities covered until the first half-year of 2024. The new credit facility is geared to Pirelli's goal of reducing absolute greenhouse gas emissions from the raw materials purchased (Scope 3), validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and contained in Pirelli's first "Sustainability-Linked Financing Framework", the document that contains the Company's guidelines and commitments to its stakeholders on sustainable finance.
In addition, the Board of Directors updated the resolutions relative to the euro 1 billion bond issue which is part of the euro 2 billion EMTN programme, revoking the resolution approved on February 23, 2022 and simultaneously approved a new resolution for the issue, again as part of the EMTN programme, of non-convertible bonds to be placed with institutional investors for up to euro 1 billion, to be executed by May 2023, in order to take into account the changed market conditions and the interventions - already implemented or expected - by the central banks.

GROUP PERFORMANCE AND RESULTS
In this document, in addition to the financial measures provided for by the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), alternative performance indicators derived from the IFRS were used, in order to allow for a better assessment of the of the Group's operating and financial performance. Reference should be made to the paragraph "Alternative Performance Indicators" for a more analytical description of these indicators.
In a highly volatile external environment (rising inflation, difficulties along the supply chain, lockdowns in China), which was further exacerbated by the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Pirelli closed the first half-year of 2022 with results in growth, thanks to the implementation of the key programmes of the 2021-2022|2025 Industrial Plan.
* * *
On the Commercial front:
- continued growth for the High Value segment (72% of Group revenues), with particular focus on Car ≥19", Specialties and electric vehicles. The first half-year saw strengthened positioning for the Car ≥18" Replacement channel (+13% for Pirelli volumes compared to +8% for the market), thanks to the further renewal of the product portfolio. The performance for Original Equipment channel for Car ≥18" was consistent with that of the market (+2% for Pirelli volumes as well as for the market), but with an increasing focus on higher tyre rim diameters (≥19" volumes were up by approximately +4 percentage points and accounted for almost 76% of Original Equipment ≥18" volumes), and on electric vehicles (12% of Original Equipment ≥18" volumes, which had doubled compared to the first half-year of 2021);
- a reduction in exposure to the Standard segment (-7% for Pirelli Car ≤17" volumes compared to -3% for the market), with a mix increasingly oriented towards the Replacement channel and higher rim diameter products;
- record improvement in the price/mix (+20.4% for the first half-year), which reflected the price increases and a favourable mix performance.

On the Innovation front:
- the homologation plan continued especially with the Premium and Prestige OEM partners, with ~160 new technical homologations concentrated mainly in the ≥19" range and in Specialties;
- the launch during the half-year of four new product lines of which three are dedicated to the SUV segment (the New Scorpion, Scorpion All-Season SF2 and Scorpion Winter), with a particular focus on electric or plug-in hybrid cars. The Winter range was expanded with the introduction of a line dedicated to colder temperatures (Ice Zero Asymmetric).
The Competitiveness Programme continued, with gross benefits of euro 51.7 million (35% of the annual target of euro 150 million), and relative to:
- product cost, with modularity and design-to-cost programmes;
- manufacturing, through the completion of the previously announced optimisation of the industrial footprint and the implementation of efficiency programmes;
- SG&A, by leveraging an optimised logistics and warehouse network and negotiated purchases;
- organisation, through the recourse to digital transformation.
For the Operations Programme:
- the production of cycling tyres began at the Bollate plant;
- plant saturation levels for the first half-year of 2022 stood at approximately 90%;
For the Digitisation Programme:
- the adoption of the new CRM for integrated customer management was completed;
- coverage for major factories with Industrial Internet of Things (IioT) technology to improve the efficiency of production processes began;
- the cloud strategy for all central IT systems was completed. The new, fully upgraded infrastructure guarantees business continuity and reduced Cyber Security risks, lower operating costs and a reduction in CO2 emissions (-40% compared to the previous infrastructure).
On the sustainability front, during the first half-year of 2022 as part of the measures to protect health and safety in the workplace, the worldwide Excellence in Safety Project continued, together with ongoing improvement measures in all factories.
From an environmental perspective, the path towards decarbonisation continued, which incuded:
- the formalisation last June of the Company's Net Zero Commitment a Science Based Target initiative (SBTi); Net Zero Commitment a Science Based Target initiative (SBTi);
- the validation by SBTi of the Company's new targets for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, following the achievement of the previous Scope 1 and 2 targets four years ahead of schedule. The new targets include measures consistent with the goal of limiting average global warming temperatures to within +1.5°C, as well as reducing emissions from the raw material supply chain (Scope 3).
At product level, in keeping with its Eco&Safety Design strategy, in February Pirelli launched the new Scorpion Summer, a tyre with class A/B labelling - the highest performance levels defined by European standards - for rolling resistance, wet grip and noise.

Research and Development on innovative materials is benefiting from the introduction of virtual processes using artificial intelligence, from design to the industrialisation of materials, with a 30% reduction in development time. These processes also allow for a 20% reduction in material prototypes, with consequent savings in costs.
Significant results were also achieved in reducing the wear rate of tyres, with improvements of up to 33% for new product lines compared to previous lines.
Lastly, the importance of ESG objectives at the level of variable remuneration for management has increased, with a focus on gender balance, and revenues from Eco & Safety performance products[1] on the reduction of absolute CO2 emissions and Pirelli's positioning in the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index ATX Auto Component sector.
Activities in Russia
As already mentioned when the results for the first quarter of 2022 were published on May 10, 2022, Pirelli suspended investments in its factories in Russia, with the exception of those intended for safety. Russia accounted for 3% of turnover for 2021, a figure that remained substantially unchanged during the first half-year of 2022, and approximately 11% of the Group's Car capacity, mainly Standard with approximately half dedicated to exports.
Pirelli activated a series of initiatives to mitigate the effects of the conflict as part of the contingency plan announced in February. In compliance with international sanctions imposed by the EU, which include a ban on imports of Russian finished products into the EU and a ban on exports of certain raw materials to Russia beginning from the second half-year, Pirelli has:
- geared production towards the domestic market;
- identified alternative sources of import/export streams, with the gradual activation of sourcing supplies of finished products from Turkey and Romania, to replace Russian exports to European markets and the use of mainly local suppliers of raw materials to replace European suppliers;
- diversified its service providers for logistics services in order to ensure the continuity of supplies of finished products and raw materials;
- guaranteed its financial support through local banks.
[1] Revenues from the sales of Eco & Safety Performance tyres out of the Group's total Car tyre sales. Eco & Safety Performance products identify the Car tyres that Pirelli produces worldwide and that fall exclusively into classes A, B, C of rolling resistance and grip on the wet, in accordance with the labelling parameters laid down by European regulations.

Pirelli's results for the first half-year of 2022 were characterised by:
- net sales which equalled euro 3,197.0 million, +24.6% compared to the first half-year of 2021 (a +19.4% growth net of the exchange rate effect and hyperinflation in Argentina and Turkey), supported by the strong improvement in the price/mix (+20.4%);
- EBIT adjusted which equalled euro 481.6 million, up by +27,6% compared to euro 377.4 million for the first half-year of 2021, with profitability at 15.1%, and which had improved compared to 14.7% for the same period of 2021, thanks to the contribution of internal levers (price/mix and efficiencies), which more than offset the strong impact of raw materials and inflation;
- a net income/loss which amounted to an income of euro 233.0 million (euro 131.6 million for the first half-year of 2021), and which reflected an improved operational performance, and a net income/(loss) adjusted which amounted to an income of euro 287.9 million, net of one-off, non-recurring and restructuring expenses, and of the amortisation of intangible assets recognised in the PPA (euro 224.3 million for the first half-year of 2021);
- a Net Financial Position which at June 30, 2022 showed a debt of euro 3,530.7 million (euro 2,907.1 at December 31, 2021 and euro 3,818.7 million at June 30, 2021), with a net cash absorption before dividends of euro 464 million (euro 481 million for the first half-year of 2021) which reflected the usual seasonality of the business. Cash generation before dividends was positive for the second quarter: euro 209 million (euro 173 million for the second quarter of 2021) supported by an improved operating performance;
- a liquidity margin which equalled euro 2,428.4 million.

*before exchange rate effect and hyperinflation in Argentina and Turkey

Total net sales amounted to euro 3,197.0 million, a growth of +24.6% compared to the first half-year of 2021, +19.4% excluding the combined impact of the exchange rate effect and the adoption of hyperinflation accounting in Argentina and Turkey (totalling +5.2%).
High Value sales accounted for 72% of total Group revenues (72% for the first half-year of 2021).
The following table shows the market drivers for net sales performance compared to the same period of the previous year:

Volume performance (-1.0%) was impacted by the different trends between the High Value (+5.8%) and Standard segments (-8.8%), for both the Car and Motorcycle businesses.
For the total Car business, Pirelli reported a total increase in volumes of approximately +1%, compared to approximately -1% for the market:
- ≥18" segment volumes grew by +8%, with +5% for the market and a stronger Replacement channel (+13% for Pirelli volumes compared to +8% for the market), particularly in Europe and North America, consistent with the market trend for the Original Equipment channel (+2%), which benefited from the recovery of demand during the second quarter (+5%);
- reduced exposure to the ≤17" segment (-7% for Pirelli volumes compared to -3% for the market), with increased focus on the product and channel mix. There was a positive trend for the Replacement channel (+2% compared to -3% for the market), mainly supported by increased sales in higher rim diameters (16" and 17"). Original Equipment channel sales fell instead (-30% compared to -5% of the market), due to both the increased selectivity within this channel, and the impact of the Russian crisis following the freeze on automobile production by the main OEMs.
Pirelli Car ≥18" markedly outperformed during the second quarter: +8% for Pirelli volumes, compared to +3% for the market, with a gain in market share for the Replacement channel (+10% for Pirelli volumes, +2% for the market), thanks to strong growth in Europe and North America, which more than offset the decline in demand in China due to the pandemic.
For the Car ≤17'' segment for the second quarter, Pirelli volumes declined by approximately -8% (approximately -6% for the market), led by the Original Equipment channel.

The trend in Motorcycle volumes was negative (-9% for volumes for the first half-year, -10% for the second quarter). This trend was impacted by the sharp decline in sales for the Standard segment (-24% for the first half-year, -19% for the second quarter), following the reduction in exposure to this segment with the closure of the Brazilian motorcycle tyre plant in Gravatai, which was completed during the third quarter of 2021. The trend in volumes for the High Value Motorcycle segment was instead positive (+6% for the half-year, -0.2% for the second quarter), particularly in Europe and North America thanks to the renewed Road and Touring product range.
The price/mix for the half-year (+20.4%, consistent with the first quarter) was supported by:
- price increases in all Regions to counter rising inflation in the costs of production factors;
- an improved channel mix (increased sales for the Replacement channel) and an improved product mix, the latter linked to the ongoing conversion from Standard to High Value, and to the improved micro-mix within both segments.
The price/mix in the second quarter was +20.4% in line with first quarter but with a higher contribution from the price component.
The positive impact of the exchange rate effect (+5.2% for the half-year, +7.1% for the second quarter) reflected the appreciation of the main currencies against the euro (+10.2% for the US dollar, +10.0% for the Chinese renminbi and +16.7% for the Brazilian real, for the first half-year).

The performance for sales according to geographical region was as follows:
* before exchange rate effect and hyperinflation in Argentina and Turkey
EBITDA adjusted amounted to euro 695.3 million (euro 573.9 million for the first half-year 2021), with a margin of 21.7% (22.4% for the first half year of 2021), which reflected the dynamics described in the following paragraph in terms of EBIT adjusted.
EBIT adjusted for the first half-year of 2022 amounted to euro 481.6 million (euro 377.4 million for the corresponding period of 2021), with an EBIT margin adjusted of 15.1%, an improvement compared to +14.7% for the first half-year of 2021. The contribution of internal levers (price/mix and efficiencies), more than offset the negativity of the external environment (raw materials and inflation). More specifically, the EBIT adjusted reflected:
the positive price/mix effect (euro +435.4 million) which more than compensated the increase in the cost of raw materials (euro -236.0 million including the relative exchange rate

effect), the negative impact of the inflation of the costs of production (euro -140.9 million) and the negative impact of volumes ( euro -10.9 million);
- the positive effect of Phase 2 of the Competitiveness Plan which generated structural efficiencies which amounted to euro 51.7 million:
- the positive impact of the exchange rate effect to the amount of euro 15.5 million;
- the increase in depreciation and amortisation (euro -9.5 million) and other costs (euro -1.1 million).
EBIT adjusted amounted to euro 253.1 million for the second quarter, an increase of +21.3% thanks to the strong contribution of internal levers, as shown in the table below. The EBIT margin adjusted of 15.1% was stable compared to the first quarter of 2022, but had declined slightly from 15.8% for the second quarter of 2021, due to the effect of:
- the impact of the reduction in inventories (euro -7.9 million);
- the application of hyperinflation accounting in Turkey (euro -6.2 million);
These impacts, both included under the item "other", were partly offset by lower accruals to the provisions for the Long-Term and Short-Term Management Incentive Plan.

EBIT amounted to euro 405.2 million (euro 248.6 million for the first half-year of 2021), and included the amortisation of intangible assets identified in the PPA to the amount of euro 56.9 million, consistent with the first half-year of 2021, and one-off, non-recurring and restructuring expenses to the amount of euro 19.5 million, which were in sharp decline compared to the figure for the first halfyear of 2021 (euro -71.9 million), coherent with the structural rationalisation plan.
Net income/(loss) from equity investments amounted to an income of euro 2.3 million, (euro 2.0 million for the first half-year of 2021).

Net financial expenses for the first half-year of 2022 amounted to euro 89.6 million compared to euro 71.8 million for the same period of 2021.
The changed market conditions, and the interventions by central banks were reflected in the cost of debt, which at June 30, 2022 - calculated as an average over the last twelve months - increased to 3.03% from 2.38% at December 31, 2021, particularly due to the increase in interest rates and in costs for hedging measures against risks in Brazil (the average benchmark rate increased by approximately +9 percentage points for the first half-year of 2022, compared to the corresponding period of 2021) and in Russia, (the average benchmark rate increased by approximately +10 percentage points for the first half-year of 2022, compared to the corresponding period of 2021). This impact was partly offset by the decrease in financial expenses at Parent Company level, thanks to the improved contractually provided financial conditions due to the reduction in the Group's leverage, and to the decrease in the wash-down of fees compared to the previous period.
Taxes for the first half-year of 2022 amounted to euro -84.9 million against a net income before taxes of euro 317.9 million, with a tax rate of 26.7%. For the first half-year of 2021, taxes had amounted to euro -47.2 million against a net income before taxes of euro 178.8 million (a tax rate of 26.4%).
Net income/(loss) amounted to an income of euro 233.0 million, a growth of +77.1% compared to euro 131.6 million for the first half-year of 2021, which fully reflected the improvement in operating performance, while lower restructuring and non-recurring expenses offset the increase in financial expenses and taxes.
Net income/(loss) adjusted amounted to an income of euro 287.9 million, compared to an income of euro 224.3 million for the first half-year of 2021. The following table shows the calculations for:

The improved operating net cash flow mainly reflected:
- the positive effect of the performance of operating income (euro 481.6 million for the first halfyear of 2022, compared to euro 377.4 million for the corresponding period of 2021);
- lower investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets (CapEx) equal to a total of euro -115.7 million compared to euro -152.8 million for the first half-year of 2021. These investments were mainly aimed at High Value activities and at the constant improvement of the mix and quality in all factories. This decrease compared to the first

half-year of 2021 (which was affected by the restart of investments that had been blocked in 2020), was also due to a the different timing envisaged for the implementation of projects during 2022, which was also attributable to the geographical reallocation of investments as a result of the changed external environment;
higher cash absorption linked to working capital and other to the amount of euro -59.1 million (euro -703.0 million for the first half-year of 2022, compared to euro -643.9 million for the first half-year of 2021), attributable to an increase in inventories, (which accounted for 23.4% of net sales, 20.5% at December 31, 2021), mainly for raw materials, both due to the effects of inflation and the need to reduce supply chain risks in a volatile economic and market environment rendered even more unpredictable by the conflict between Russia and the Ukraine.
Inventories for finished products were optimised, and accounted for of 16% reveues, which was substantially consistent with the figure at December 31, 2021, due mainly to the effect of the measures put in place to limit the growth of finished Car product inventories (+1.3% compared to December 2021), and to the significant reduction recognised during the half-year for Motorcycle inventory quantities (a reduction by approximately -700 thousand pieces compared to December 2021).
The general increase in inventories was mitigated:
- o by the trend in trade payables, (which at June 30, 2022 accounted for 24.4% of revenues, an increase of approximately 4 percentage points compared to June 30, 2021) which reflected the growth in business activity;
- o by the trend in trade receivables (which accounted for 15.7% of revenues, which was substantially consistent with the figure at June 30, 2021).
To be noted is the significant reduction of cash-out linked to non-recurring and restructuring expenses (euro -35.5 million for the first half-year of 2022 compared to euro -69.3 million for the first half-year of 2021), which partially offset:
- the increase in financial expenses (euro -89.6 million for the first half-year of 2022 compared to euro -71.8 million for the first half-year of 2021);
- higher taxes (euro -104.4 million for the first half-year of 2022, compared to euro -72.0 million for the first half year of 2021);
- dividends paid to non-controlling interests to the amount of euro 24.4 million;
- the negative exchange rate impact of euro -45.1 million (euro +1.0 million for the first half-year of 2021), mainly attributable to the appreciation of the Russian rouble and the Brazilian real.
Net cash flow before dividends for the second quarter of 2022 amounted to euro 209.2 million compared to euro 172.5 million for the corresponding period of the previous financial year. This improvement of euro 36.7 million was mainly attributable to the operating net cash flow.

Geopolitical tensions, the persistence of Covid outbreaks, discontinuities in the supply chain and money tightening at the global level are further slowing the prospects for world economic growth in a scenario of persistent volatility that also reflects lower consumer confidence. In 2022 growth of global GDP growth is forecast at +2.7% (previous estimate +3.2%), with inflation foreseen at 7.3% (previous estimate 6.6%), a record level because of the cost of raw materials, energy, transport and labour.
In this scenario, the global car tyre market car is expected to see unchanged demand on an annual basis (previous indication +0.5%), with forecast growth of volumes in the High Value segment of +7%, in line with previous estimates and markedly higher than Standard (forecast for market -2% compared with preceding estimate of -1%).
In particular, the expectations for in High Value are:
- In Original Equipment ≥18'' volumes' growth of around +10% (previous indications around +8%) driven by China, because of government aid, and Europe;
- In Replacement ≥18'' volumes' growth of around +5% (previous indication around +7%) because of the slowdown of demand in China only partially offset by better performances in other Regions, particularly in Europe.

For Standard a fall in volumes is foreseen of around -2% (previous indication around -1%) with Original Equipment growing by around +1% (previously around -3%) and with the Replacement channel expected to fall by around -3% (previously around -1%).
Pirelli will meet the above scenario able to count on an effective business model – as shown by the results of the first half – that leverages particularly on:
- a distinctive positioning in High Value OE, always more focused on specialties, ≥19'' and electric, which will facilitate capturing the recovery in the second half;
- a pull-through effect and renewal of the product range which will support the performance of the High Value Replacement channel;
- price increases, announced in June, which will be fully implemented in the second half 2022;
- price/mix and efficiencies able to counter-balance increases in the cost of raw materials and inflation;
- cost mitigation actions;
- an 'attentive management of working capital, in particular of inventories (the weight of which against revenues expected to return to 2021 levels, of 20.5%) mainly thanks to the reduction of stocks of finished products.
In light of the solid performance registered in the first half and the changed external scenario, Pirelli updates its 2022 targets:
- Revenues between ~6.2 and ~6.3 billion euro (around 300 million more compared with the previous target of ~5.9 and ~6.0 billion) with growth on an annual basis expected between +17% and +18%, as a result of:
- o total volumes' growth between ~+0.5% and ~+1.5% (in line with the previous indication) but with a better performance in High Value, particularly in Original Equipment;
- o price/mix improving to between ~+13.5% / ~+14.5% compared with previous indications of ~+10% / ~+11%, because of additional price increases;
- o impact of forex improving and now expected to be positive at around +2.5% (previous estimate neutral impact), prudently estimating greater volatility of exchange rates in emerging countries in the second half.
- Adjusted Ebit Margin expected at ~15% (in line with previous indication), with an improvement in absolute value thanks to the growing contribution of the price/mix which more than compensates for the greater impact of raw materials and inflation and greater costs linked to the reduction of inventories and hyperinflation in Turkey.
- Net cash generation before dividends expected between ~450 and ~470 million euro (previous indications ~450 million) thanks to a solid operating performance and efficient management of working capital.
- Investments confirmed at around 390 million euro (~6% of revenues).
- Net financial position confirmed at ~-2.6 billion euro with a NFP/ Adjusted Ebitda ratio of ≤ 2 times.
- ROIC expected at ~19%, in line with the previous indication.

EXPLANATORY NOTES
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
Pursuant to Article 154 of Legislative Decree No. 58/1998, the Pirelli & C. Group has prepared the Condensed Consolidated Half-Year Financial Statements ("Financial Statements") in accordance with IAS 34, which governs interim financial reporting, in condensed form.
The disclosures in the Explanatory Notes should be read in conjunction with the other sections of the Half-Yearly Financial Report, of which the Condensed Consolidated Half-Yearly Financial Statements are a part, and the Annual Financial Statements at December 31, 2021.
These Condensed Consolidated Half-Year Financial Statements have been prepared using the euro as the reporting currency, with all values rounded to the nearest thousand euro, unless otherwise indicated.
The Pirelli & C. S.p.A Condensed Consolidated Half-Year Financial Statements at June 30, 2022 were approved by the Pirelli & C. S.p.A. Board of Directors on August 4, 2022.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Financial Statements
The Group has applied the provisions of CONSOB Resolution No. 15519 of July 27, 2006 with regard to the formats of the Financial Statements and, CONSOB Notice No. 6064293 of July 28, 2006 with regard to corporate disclosures.
The Condensed Consolidated Half-Year Financial Statements at June 30, 2022 consist of the Statement of Financial Position, the Income Statement, the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Changes in Equity, the Cash Flow Statement and the Explanatory Notes, and is an integral part of the Half-Year Financial Statements.
The format adopted for the Statement of Financial Position provides for the distinction of assets and liabilities according to whether they are current or non-current.
The Group has opted to present the components of the results for the period in a separate Income Statement, rather than include these components directly in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. The Income Statement format adopted provides for the classification of costs by their nature.
The Statement of Comprehensive Income includes the results for the period. For the homogeneous categories, income and expenses, pursuant to the IFRS are not recognised in the Income Statement.
The Group has opted for the presentations of tax effects, as well as the reclassifications to the Income Statement of the gains/losses which were recognised in equity in previous financial years, directly in the Statement of Comprehensive Income and not in the Explanatory Notes.

The Statement of Changes in Equity includes, in addition to the total gains/losses for the period, the amounts from transactions with the holders of capital and the movements which occurred during the period under reserves.
In the Statement of Cash Flow, the financial flows from operating activities are reported using the indirect method, whereby the gains or losses for the period are adjusted by the effects of non-monetary transactions, by any deferrals or accruals of past or future collections or payments for operating activities and by revenue or expense items, connected with the cash flows derived from any investment or financial activity.
Scope of Consolidation
The scope of consolidation includes the subsidiaries, associates and agreements for joint arrangements.
Subsidiaries are defined as all the companies over which the Group contemporarily holds:
- the power of decision-making, or the ability to direct the relevant activities of the subsidiary, that is activities that have a significant influence on the results of the subsidiary itself;
- the exposure or the right to the variable (positive or negative) results from the investment in the entity;
- the capacity to utilise its decision-making power to determine the amounts for results arising from the investment in the entity.
The Financial Statements of subsidiaries are included in the Condensed Consolidated Half-Year Financial Statements as of the date when control is assumed until such time when control ceases to exist. The share of equity and of the results attributable to non-controlling interests, are separately reported in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the Consolidated Income Statement and the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, respectively.
All companies for which the Group is able to exercise significant influence as defined by IAS 28 – Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures, are considered associates. This influence is legally presumed to exist when the Group holds a percentage of voting rights of between 20% and 50%, or when - even in the case of a lower share of voting rights – it has the power to participate in determining financial and operating policies by virtue of specific legal relationships, such as, for example, the participation in Shareholders' agreements together with other forms of significant exercise of governance rights.
Joint arrangements are agreements whereby two or more parties have joint control under a contract. Joint control is the shared control of a business activity, established by agreement which exists only when decisions relative to the activity require the unanimous consent of all parties who share control. These agreements may give rise to joint ventures or joint operations.

A joint venture is an agreement for the joint control of an entity whereby the parties that have joint control, have rights to the net assets of the said entity. Joint ventures are distinguished from joint operations which instead are configured as agreements which give the parties of the agreement, which have joint control of the initiative, the rights to the individual assets and the obligations of the individual liabilities relative to the agreement. In the case of joint operations, it is mandatory that the assets, liabilities, costs and revenues subject to the agreement be recognised in accordance with the applicable accounting standards. The Group does not currently have any agreements in place for joint operations.
The only change in the Scope of Consolidation that occurred during the first half-year of 2022 was the disposal - approved by the Board of Directors on November 11, 2021 - of the 20% stake held in the Joint Stock Company Kirov Tyre Plant on May 23, 2022.
The complete list of subsidiaries is contained in the attachment "Scope of Consolidation – Companies Consolidated on a Line-by-line Basis".
Non-controlling interests in the subsidiaries of the Group are not relevant either individually or in aggregate form.
3. ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
3.1. Adopted Accounting Standards
The accounting standards adopted are the same used in preparing the Financial Statements at December 31, 2021 to which, reference should be made for more details, with the exception of the following amendments which were applicable as of January 1, 2022, but have had no impact on the Group:
- Amendments to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment Proceeds before Intended Use. These amendments prohibit the deduction of amounts received from the sale of products from the cost of property, plant and equipment, while the asset is being prepared for its intended use. The proceeds from the sale of products and the relative production cost must be recognised in the Income Statement.
- Amendments to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets Onerous Contracts - Cost of Fulfilling a Contract. These amendments specify that the costs to be taken into account when measuring onerous contracts are both the incremental costs of fulfilling the contract (for example, direct labour and materials) and a proportion of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling the contract (for example, an allocation of the depreciation rate of the assets used in fulfilling the contract).
- Annual Improvements (2018-2020 cycle) issued in May 2020 which introduced limited changes to some standards (IFRS 1 – First-time Adoption of the IFRS, IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments, IAS 41 – Agriculture, and illustrative examples of IFRS 16 - Leases) and which clarify the wording or correct omissions or conflicts, between the requirements of the IFRS standards.

It should also be noted that income taxes, are recognised on the basis of the best estimate of the weighted average tax rate expected for the entire financial year, consistent with the indications provided by IAS 34 for the preparation of the Interim Financial Statements.
3.2. International Accounting Standards and/or Interpretations issued but not yet in force in 2022
The following are the new Standards or Interpretations already issued, but not yet in force or not yet approved by the European Union at June 30, 2022 and therefore were not applicable.
Amendments to IAS 1 — Presentation of Financial Statements - Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current.
The amendments clarify the criteria that must be applied for classifying liabilities as current or non-current and specify that the classification of a liability is not affected by the likelihood that settlement of the liability will be delayed for 12 months following the relevant financial year. The Group's intention to liquidate in the short-term had no impact on their classification. These amendments, which will come into force on January 1, 2023 have not yet been approved by the European Union. No impacts on the classification of financial liabilities are foreseen as a result of these amendments.
- Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS Practice Statement 2: Disclosure on Accounting Standards Disclosure on Accounting Standards. These amendments provide guidance on the application of materiality judgements to accounting standard disclosures in a way that is more useful; particularly:
- the requirement to disclose "significant" accounting standards has been replaced with a requirement to disclose "relevant" accounting standards;
- guidance has been added on how to apply the concept of materiality to accounting standard disclosures.
In assessing the relevance of accounting standard disclosures, entities must consider both the size of transactions, other events or conditions and their nature.
These amendments, which have been approved by the European Union, will come into force on January 1, 2023. No impacts on the disclosures in the Group's Financial Statements are expected as a result of these amendments.
Amendments to IAS 8 – Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. These amendments introduce a new definition of "accounting estimates", by distinguishing them more clearly from accounting policies, and provide guidance on whether changes should be treated as changes in estimates, changes in accounting standards or errors.
These amendments, which have been approved by the European Union, will come into force on January 1, 2023. No impacts on the Group's Financial Statements are expected as a result of these amendments.

Amendments to IAS 12 - Income Taxes - Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction.
These amendments eliminate the possibility of not recognising deferred taxes at the time of the initial recognition of transactions that give rise to taxable and deductible temporary differences (e.g. lease contracts).
With respect to lease contracts, these amendments also clarify that, when lease payments are deductible for tax purposes, it is a matter of judgement (after considering the applicable tax law) whether such deductions are attributable for tax purposes to the lease liability recognised in the Financial Statements, or to the related right of use. If the tax deductions are allocated to the right of use, the tax values of the right of use and the lease liability are the same as their carrying amounts, and no temporary differences arise at initial recognition. However, if tax deductions are allocated to the lease liability, the tax values of the right of use and the lease liability are zero, giving rise to taxable and deductible temporary differences, respectively. Even if the gross temporary differences are equal, a deferred tax liability and a deferred tax asset must nevertheless be recognised.
These amendments, which will come into force on January 1, 2023, have not yet been approved by the European Union. The impact on the Group's Financial Statements as a result of these amendments is currently being analysed.
3.3. Accounting Standards for Hyperinflationary Countries
Group companies operating in hyperinflation countries recalculate the values for the non-monetary assets and liabilities present in their original individual Financial Statements in order to eliminate the distorting effects caused by the loss of purchasing power of the currency. The inflation rate used to implement inflation accounting corresponds to the consumer price index. Companies, operating in countries where the cumulative inflation rate over a three-year period approximates or exceeds 100%, adopt inflation accounting and discontinue it in the event that the cumulative inflation rate over a three-year period falls below 100%. Gains or losses on the net monetary position are recognised in the Income Statement. At the date of first application, the difference between the closing equity of the previous financial year and the opening equity, is recognised directly in equity. The financial statements of companies prepared in currencies other than the euro which operate in hyperinflation countries, are translated into euro by applying the period-end exchange rates to the items of both the Statement of Financial Position and the Income Statement. During the course of the second quarter of 2022, the inflation rate accumulated over the previous three year period in Turkey exceeded 100%. This, together with other characteristics of the economy of the country, led the Group to adopt IAS 29 - Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies as of June 30, 2022, with reference to the subsidiaries in Turkey, Pirelli Otomobil Lastikleri A.S. and Pirelli Lastikleri Dis Ticaret A.S.
Seasonality
The value of trade receivables at June 30, 2022 was impacted by the usual seasonality factors, which, all things being equal, lead to an increase in the values at the end of the half-year compared to the corresponding values at financial year-end. These phenomena, which are more pronounced in the more seasonal markets such as Europe and Russia, generally favour a lower amount of trade

receivables at the end of the year compared to the amount recorded during the year, due to the almost total collection of receivables relative to revenues from winter products in these markets for the fourth quarter, while the collection of a large portion of receivables relative to revenues from summer products is generally completed in these same markets during the third quarter.
Activities in Russia
As already announced when the results for the first quarter of 2022 were published on May 10, 2022, Pirelli has suspended investments in its factories in Russia, with the exception of those intended for safety. Russia accounted for 3% of turnover in 2021, a figure that remained substantially unchanged during the first half-year of 2022, and approximately 11% of the Group's Car capacity, mainly Standard with approximately half dedicated to exports.
Pirelli activated a series of initiatives to mitigate the effects of the conflict as part of the contingency plan announced in February. In compliance with the international sanctions imposed by the EU, which include a ban on imports of Russian finished products into the EU and a ban on exports of certain raw materials to Russia, beginning from the second half-year, Pirelli has:
- geared production to the domestic market;
- identified alternative sources of import/export streams, with the gradual activation of supplies of finished products from Turkey and Romania to replace Russian exports to European markets and the use of mainly local raw material suppliers to replace European suppliers;
- diversified logistics service providers in order to ensure the continuity of supplies of finished products and raw materials;
- guaranteed financial support through local banks.
At June 30, 2022, the Statement of Financial Position of the sub-consolidated entity which aggregates the subsidiaries located in Russia consisted mainly of:
- non-current assets to the amount of euro 280.7 million (euro 178.0 million at December 31, 2021), of which euro 267.4 million was related to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets (euro 169.3 million at December 31, 2021). This increase compared to December 31, 2021 mainly refers to the impact of the exchange rate effect (a positive euro 100.8 million);
- inventories to the amount of euro 64.7 million;
- trade receivables and other receivables in the amount of euro 140.1 million, of which euro 5.8 million from other Group companies;
- cash and cash equivalents to the amount of euro 19.7 million;
- borrowings from banks and other financial institutions to the amount of euro 170.5 million, which included euro 71.6 million owed to the Group;
- trade payables and other payables to the amount of euro 94.8 million, including euro 28.2 million due to other Group companies.
At the date of this document, guarantees have been issued by Pirelli Tyre S.p.A. for the financial and trade payables of its Russian subsidiaries to third parties and other Group companies.
Total equity amounted to euro 207.1 million, of which euro 134.6 million was attributable to the Parent Company and euro 72.5 million attributable to non-controlling interests. The value of equity includes

a positive cumulative translation reserve at June 30, 2022 to the amount of euro 62.4 million, generated mainly during the course of the first half-year of 2022, as a result of the significant appreciation of the rouble against the euro (+35.94% the exchange rate at June 30, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021).
Revenues for the first half-year of 2022 from net sales on the Russian market amounted to euro 108.6 million, with an operating income adjusted of euro 22.7 million.
4. ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
The estimates and assumptions used to prepare these Condensed Consolidated Half-Year Financial Statements are consistent with those used to prepare the Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2021, to which reference should be made.
However, these estimates and assumptions have been updated to take into account the effects of the Russia-Ukraine crisis, which had a particular impact on the assessment of the recoverability of goodwill and other intangible assets with an indefinite useful life and property, plant and equipment, in Russia.
These impacts are described in the Explanatory Notes to which reference should be made for more details.
5. INFORMATION ON FAIR VALUE
5.1 Fair Value Measurement
In relation to financial instruments measured at fair value, the following table shows the classification of these instruments on the basis of the hierarchy of levels as provided for by IFRS 13, which reflects the significance of the inputs used in determining their fair value. The levels are defined as follows:
- level 1 unadjusted prices quoted on an active market for assets or liabilities subject to evaluation;
- level 2 inputs other than the quoted prices referred to in, the previous point, which are observable on the market either directly (as in the case of prices) or indirectly (because they are derived from prices);
- level 3 inputs that are not based on observable market data.

The following table shows financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value at June 30, 2022, subdivided into the three levels defined above:
| (in thousands of euro) | Note | Carrying amount at 06/30/2022 |

The following table shows changes in financial assets that occurred at level 3 during the course of the period:
| (in thousands of euro) | |
|---|---|
| Opening balance 01/01/2022 | 11,056 |
| Translation differences | (3) |
| Fair value adjustments through Other Comprehensive Income | 164 |
| Other changes | (1) |
| Closing balance 06/30/2022 | 11,216 |
These financial assets are mainly represented by equity investments in the European Institute of Oncology (euro 8,139 thousand), Genextra (euro 629 thousand) and Telco S.r.l. (euro 450 thousand).
During the course of the half-year which closed at June 30, 2022 there were no transfers from level 1 to level 2 or vice versa, nor from level 3 to other levels and vice versa.
The fair value of financial instruments which are traded on active markets is based on the price quotations published at the reporting date of the Financial Statements. These instruments, included in level 1, primarily comprise of equity investments classified as financial assets at fair value through other Comprehensive Income.
The fair value of financial instruments which are not traded on active markets (for example, derivatives) is determined by the use of evaluation techniques widely used in the financial sector, which maximise the utilisation of observable and available market data:
- market prices for similar instruments;
- the fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated by discounting estimated future cash flows based on observable yield curves;
- the fair value of foreign exchange derivatives (forward contracts) is determined by using the forward exchange rate at the reporting date of the Financial Statements;
- the fair value of cross currency interest rate swaps is calculated by discounting the estimated future cash flows based on observable yield curves and converting them into euro using the exchange rate at the reporting date of the Financial Statements;
- the fair value of natural rubber futures is determined by using the closing price of the contract at the reporting date of the Financial Statements.

6. OPERATING SEGMENTS
IFRS 8 - Operating segments, defines an operating segment as a component:
- which involves entrepreneurial activities which generate revenues and costs;
- whose operating income is periodically reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer, in his role as Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM);
- for which separate income, financial position, and equity data is available.
For the purposes of IFRS 8, the activities performed by the Consumer Activities are identifiable as a single operating segment.
Revenues from sales and services according to geographical region were as follows:
| (in thousands of euro) | 01/01 - 06/30/2022 | 01/01 - 06/30/2021 |

The items Hyperinflation Argentina and Turkey refer to the revaluation for the first half-year of 2022 of the assets held by the Argentinian and Turkish companies as a consequence of the application of the IAS 29 accounting standard - Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies, (euro 12,526 thousand for Argentina and euro 12,459 thousand for Turkey). This effect was partially offset by negative translation differences (euro 5,596 thousand for Argentina and euro 1,793 thousand for Turkey).

Increases, totalling euro 104,446 thousand, were primarily aimed at the High Value segment, and at the continuous improvement in the mix and quality in all manufacturing plants.
The ratio of investments to depreciation for the first half-year of 2022 was equal to 0.63, (0.93 for the same period of 2021).
Property, plant and equipment in progress at June 30, 2022 included individual fixed asset categories, and amounted to euro 206,929 thousand (euro 183,468 thousand at December 31, 2021). The main projects included under property, plant and equipment in progress were the initiation of new projects to increase production capacity, the constant technological upgrading of manufacturing plants and of machinery, also aimed at increasing their safety from an Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) perspective and at investments in machinery, for the development of new product lines and the improvement of existing products.
It should be noted that, with reference to the manufacturing plants located in Russia, the direct effects of the Russia-Ukraine crisis on the operating activities located in Russia, represented an indicator of impairment and therefore the related tangible fixed assets were subjected to an impairment test. The recoverable value of these activities was found to be higher than the carrying amount and therefore no impairment was recognised.

Intangible assets were composed as follows:
the Pirelli Brand (indefinite useful life) in the amount of euro 2,270,000 thousand. The useful life of a brand depends on a series of factors including the competitive environment, market share, history of the Brand, life cycles of the underlying product, operating plans and the macroeconomic environment of the countries in which the related products are sold. As far as the Pirelli Brand is concerned, it was assessed on its one hundred and fifty years of success (the brand was born in 1872) and on the intention and ability of the Group to continue investing, in order to support and maintain the Brand, and its life was deemed indefinite;

- the Metzeler Brand (useful life of 20 years) in the amount of euro 45,448 thousand included under the item "Concessions, licenses and trademarks – finite useful life";
- Customer relationships (useful life of 10-20 years) in the amount of euro 222,123 thousand, which mainly includes the value of commercial relationships both for the Original Equipment channel and the Replacement channel;
- Technology which includes the value of both product and process technologies as well the value of the In-Process R&D (being formed at the time of the acquisition of the Group in 2015) for an amount equal to euro 880,192 thousand and euro 50,000 thousand respectively. The useful life of product and process Technology was determined to be 20 years, while the useful life for In-Process R&D was 10 years.
- Goodwill in the amount of euro 1,883,743 thousand, of which euro 1,877,363 thousand was recorded at the time of acquisition of the Group in September 2015. The residual portion refers to the goodwill determined as part of the acquisition of the company JMC Pneus Comercio Importação e Exportação Ltda which occurred in 2018.
Increases totalling euro 11,280 thousand were concentrated in application software (euro 9,204 thousand), mainly for the implementation of the Company's digitisation programme.
Impairment Testing of Goodwill
Pursuant to IAS 36, goodwill is not subject to amortisation, but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently, if specific events or circumstances arise that may suggest an impairment.
Considering the new post-war environment in Ukraine and the decrease in stock market capitalisation at June 30, 2022, to below the carrying amount of equity which represented an impairment indicator for goodwill, it became necessary at June 30, 2022 to repeat the impairment test already performed in December 2021.
Goodwill, which amounted to euro 1,884,743 thousand, was allocated to the "Consumer Activities" CGU group, which represents the sole business segment in which the Group operates and considers to be the minimum level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management control purposes.
The impairment test consists of comparing the recoverable amount of Consumer Assets with their carrying amount, including their operating assets and goodwill.
The value configuration used to determine the recoverable amount for Consumer Activities at June 30, 2022 is the value-in-use, which corresponds to the present value of the future financial cash flows which are expected to be generated by the group of CGUs, using a discount rate that reflects the specific risks of the group of CGUs at the valuation date. The forecasts are based on the flows from the EBITDA adjusted from the Guidance for 2022, as updated at the time of the presentation of the figures for the first quarter of 2022 and, with reference to the years 2023-2025, from the Industrial Plan presented on March 31, 2021, adjusted downwards to take the consensus estimates of analysts into account as externally sourced evidence pursuant to IAS 33 letter (a), and the sterilising of cash flows relative to expansion investments, restructuring expenses and related benefits pursuant to IAS 36.44, to which the Company at June 30, 2022 has not yet committed.

The cumulative average annual growth rate (CAGR) of revenues for the explicit forecast period used for the determination of the recoverable amount, calculated with respect to the revenues recorded for 2021, was equal to 4.9% while the average EBITDA margin adjusted for the period used for the determination of the recoverable amount was equal to 23.3%, with a CAGR for the EBITDA adjusted of 6.3% compared to the absolute value recorded for 2021.
The impairment test at June 30, 2022 was performed using the assistance of an independent third-party professional.
The discount rates, defined as the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) net of taxes, which were applied to the prospective cash flows equalled 7.70%, while the growth factor of operating cash flows, for the purpose of estimating the terminal value (g) equalled zero. The capitalisation rate for operating cash flows (WACC - g) is therefore equal to 7.70%.
Based on the results of the tests carried out, no impairment emerged.
The recoverable amount is greater than the carrying amount for Consumer Activities (14%), while, in order for the value-in-use to be equal to the carrying amount, a downward change in the key parameters is necessary, specifically:
- an increase in the discount rate by 117 basis points in the explicit forecast period and in the terminal value;
- a negative annual growth rate beyond the explicit "g" forecast period of -144 basis points;
- a decrease in the average EBITDA margin adjusted by 211 basis points in the explicit forecast period and in the terminal value.
Impairment Testing of the Pirelli Brand (Intangible Asset with an Indefinite Useful Life):
The Pirelli Brand, valued at euro 2,270,000 thousand is an intangible asset with an indefinite useful life and as such is not subject to amortisation, but pursuant to IAS 36, is tested for impairment annually or more frequently, if specific events or circumstances arise that may suggest an impairment.
In this case as well, the new post-war context in Ukraine and the decrease in the stock market capitalisation at June 30, 2022, to below the carrying amount for equity, represented an impairment indicator for the Pirelli Brand and it became necessary at June 30, 2022, to repeat the impairment test already carried out at December 31, 2021.
The impairment test at June 30, 2022 was performed using the assistance of an independent third-party professional.
The configuration of the recoverable amount for impairment testing purposes at June 30, 2022 was the fair value, calculated on the basis of the income approach (the so-called Level 3 of the IFRS 13 hierarchy – Fair Value Measurement). Pursuant to IFRS 13, in the estimation of the fair value the effects on the cash flows of expansion investments do not have to be sterilised when it is reasonable

to assume that market participants would also consider such investments and the relative benefits. This circumstance consequently implies that a "g" growth rate was used in estimating the value-inuse of Consumer Activities, when estimating the terminal value as equal to 0.5% (0% in the valuein-use), following the verification that the consensus estimates of equity analysts had predicted higher growth rates. The fair value estimate is therefore based on:
- the same flows used for goodwill impairment testing purposes, that is, the forecasts made by management, which with reference to 2022 are based on the Guidance for 2022, as updated at the time of the presentation of the first quarter figures of 2022 and, with reference to 2023-2025, from the Industrial Plan presented on March 31, 2021, which were adjusted downwards to take consensus estimates of analysts into account, but without sterilising the effects of expansion investments. The cumulative average annual growth rate (CAGR) of revenues for the explicit forecast period used for the determination of the recoverable amount, calculated with respect to the revenues recorded for 2021 was equal to 6.0%, while the average EBITDA margin adjusted for the period used for the determination of the recoverable amount was equal to 23.1%, with a CAGR for the EBITDA adjusted of 7.5% compared to the absolute value recorded for 2021;
- a sum-of-parts valuation criterion which also takes into account the contribution of royalties from the Prometeon Tyre Group for the use of the Pirelli trademark in relation to the Industrial segment (as in the existing contracts);
- the excess earnings attributable to the Pirelli Brand are derived by deducting the imputed rent or royalty rate of the Group's operating assets other than the Brand, expressed at fair value, from the prospective operating income;
- a discount rate of 9.51%, which includes a premium compared to the WACC, which is determined according to the riskiness of the specific asset and the "g" growth rate in the terminal value which is equal to 0.5%;
- the TAB (Tax Amortisation Benefit) that is, the tax benefit that could potentially benefit the market participant which acquired the asset separately as a result of the possibility of amortising the asset for tax purposes.
The valuation technique at December 31, 2021 was based on a royalty rate, applied to revenues as derived from the royalty rates implied in the valuations by an independent party, for the main brands of listed companies in the Tyre sector. For the test at June 30, 2022, the valuation technique was modified by basing the exercise on excess earnings, as the previous method had limitations in terms of available inputs. It should be noted that at June 30, 2022 the valuation was also carried out with the method used at December 31, 2021, in order to verify that an impairment loss would not be recorded in the absence of a change in method.
For impairment testing purposes, the recoverable amount of the Pirelli Brand cum TAB, was compared with the carrying amount (cum TAB) and no impairment emerged.

The recoverable amount is greater than the carrying amount of the Brand (22%), while, in order for the fair value to be equal to the carrying amount, a downward change in the key parameters is necessary, in particular:
- a decrease in revenues by 480 basis points in the explicit forecast period and in the terminal value;
- a decrease in the EBITDA margin adjusted by 87 basis points in the explicit forecast period and in the terminal value;
- an increase in the discount rate by 175 basis points in the explicit forecast period and in the terminal value;
- a decrease in the "g" growth rate by 284 basis points beyond the explicit forecast period.

The amount at June 30, 2022 included euro 112,541 thousand related to investments made by the Argentinian subsidiary in dollar-linked bonds, to mitigate the effects of the depreciation of the local currency.
For un-listed securities, the fair value was determined by using estimates based on the best available information.
Changes in fair value for the period were recognised in the Income Statement as "Financial Income" - Note 34.

17. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents went from euro 1,884,649 thousand at December 31, 2021 to euro 889,664 thousand at June 30, 2022. The decrease is largely explained by the early repayments of Group loans in the amount of euro 1,160 million that took place in the first quarter of 2022, partially offset by increases mainly due to the utilisation of euro 600 million from the Group's new euro 1.6 billion financing.
Details of the change in the balance are provided in the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement.
They were concentrated at the Group's treasury centres and in Group companies that generate liquidity and use it locally. These are mainly used in accordance with risk diversification principles and in compliance with minimum rating levels, on the market for short-term deposits with banking counterparties at interest rates consistent with the prevailing market conditions.
For the purposes of the Cash Flow Statement, the balance of cash and cash equivalents was stated net of bank overdrafts in the amount of euro 10,375 thousand at June 30, 2022.
18. EQUITY
18.1. Attributable to the Parent Company
Equity attributable to the Parent Company went from euro 4,908,112 thousand at December 31, 2021 to euro 5,268,869 thousand at June 30, 2022.
The subscribed and paid up share capital at June 30, 2022 amounted to euro 1,904,375 thousand and was represented by 1,000,000,000 registered ordinary shares without indication of their nominal value.
The translation reserve, generated by the conversion into euro of the financial statements of subsidiaries that use a currency other than the euro as their functional currency, was negative to the amount of euro 366,342 thousand at June 30, 2022 (negative to the amount of euro 565,143 thousand at December 31, 2021). The movements for the period included a positive change in the amount of euro 198,801 thousand mainly relative to the subsidiaries in Russia, Brazil, Mexico, China and the USA.
Changes in other reserves through other Comprehensive Income went from a negative value of euro 1,408 thousand at December 31, 2021 to a positive value euro 47,128 thousand at June 30, 2022, mainly due to the positive effect of actuarial gains on pension funds (euro 48,452 thousand), and the cash flow hedge reserve (euro 29,238 thousand), which was partially offset by the tax effect (negative to the amount of euro 17,921 thousand), and financial assets at fair value through other Comprehensive Income (negative to the amount of euro 9,805 thousand) .
Other reserves/retained earnings went from euro 3,570,288 thousand at December 31, 2020, to euro 3,683,708 thousand at June 30, 2022 essentially due to the net income/(loss) for the period (positive to the amount of euro 221,417 thousand), due to approved dividends (negative to the

amount of euro 161,000 thousand), and due to hyperinflation in Argentina (positive to the amount of euro 38,854 thousand) and in Turkey (positive to the amount of euro 14,192 thousand, of which euro 5,589 thousand was relative to the impact of hyperinflation on opening balances).
18.2. Attributable to Non-Controlling Interests
Equity attributable to non-controlling interests went from euro 134,527 thousand at December 31, 2021 to euro 150,738 thousand at June 30, 2022. This change was mainly due to the results for the period (postive to the amount of euro 11,630 thousand), while the differences from the translation of exchange rates (positive in the amount of euro 28,967 thousand) offset the effect of approved dividends (euro 24,374 thousand).

At June 30, 2022, the component recorded under noncurrent financial payables amounted to euro 465.7 million.

- o a Pirelli International Treasury S.p.A. revolving cash credit facility of euro 900,000 thousand, which was unused at June 30, 2022.
The financing is guaranteed by Pirelli Tyre S.p.A.

Reporting for the circular economy tranche is expected to occur only in 2023.
- euro 723,268 thousand relative to two bilateral loans granted to Pirelli & C. S.p.A. by leading banks, of which a nominal euro 600 million (the "Bilateral 600") with a floating rate (EURIBOR + spread) which matures in February 2024, guaranteed by Pirelli Tyre S.p.A., and euro 125 million (the "Bilateral 125") with a floating rate (EURIBOR + spread), which matures in August 2023;

The liquidity margin guarantees coverage for maturities for borrowings from banks and other financial institutions, until the second half of 2024.
The item lease liabilities represents the financial liabilities relative to leasing contracts. The change compared to the previous financial year refers to increases in the right of use during the financial year, deriving from the stipulation of new contracts and the remeasurement of existing contracts, partially offset by lease instalments.
Non-discounted future payments for lease contracts, for which the exercise of extension options is not considered to be reasonably certain and were therefore not included in the item lease liabilities, amounted to euro 132,558 thousand at June 30, 2022 (euro 115,473 thousand at December 31, 2021).
Accrued financial expenses and deferred financial income (euro 9,010 thousand) mainly refers to the accrual of interest matured on bond loans to the amount of euro 4,038 thousand (euro 8,510 thousand at December 31, 2021), and to the accrued interest matured on borrowings from banks to the amount of euro 3,247 thousand (euro 3,618 thousand at December 31, 2021).

For current financial payables, it is considered that their carrying amount approximates their relative fair value. For non-current financial payables, their fair value is shown below, compared with their carrying amount:
| (in thousands of euro) | 06/30/2022 | 12/31/2021 | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carrying amount | Fair value Carrying amount | Fair value | ||
| Bonds | 707,937 | 680,343 | 1,453,762 | 1,469,529 |
| Borrowings from banks | 2,531,448 | 2,539,939 | 1,922,771 | 1,926,002 |
| Other financial payables | 418,014 | 418,014 | 412,836 | 412,836 |
| Total non-current financial payables | 3,657,400 | 3,638,297 | 3,789,369 | 3,808,368 |
The public bond issued by Pirelli & C. S.p.A. under the EMTN programme is listed and its relative fair value was measured with reference to period-end prices. It has therefore been classified in level 1 of the hierarchy provided for by IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurement. The fair value of the debt component of the convertible bond loan, of the "Schuldschein" loan and of borrowings from banks, was calculated by discounting each expected debt cash flow at the market swap-rate for the relevant currency and maturity date, increased by the Group's creditworthiness for debt instruments similar in nature and technical characteristics, which therefore ranks it at level 2 of the hierarchy as provided for by IFRS 13 - Fair Value Measurement.
At June 30, 2022 there were hedging derivatives in place for interest rates and on floating rate debt.
At June 30, 2022, the cost of debt year-on-year (calculated as the average over the last twelve months), stood at 3.03% compared to 2.38% at December 31, 2021. This increase mainly reflected the increase in interest rates and in costs for hedging measures against risks in Brazil (the average benchmark rate increased by approximately +9 percentage points for the first half-year of 2022, compared to the corresponding period of 2021) and in Russia, (the average benchmark rate increased by approximately +10 percentage points for the first half-year of 2022, compared to the corresponding period of 2021). This impact was partly offset by the decrease in financial expenses at Parent Company level, thanks to the improved contractually provided financial conditions due to the reduction in the Group's leverage, and to the decrease in the wash-down of fees compared to the previous period.
With regard to the existence of financial covenants, it is to be noted that the (i)"Schuldschein" loan, (ii) the bilateral euro 600 million credit facility granted to Pirelli & C. S.p.A. during the course of the first quarter of 2019 ("Bilateral 600"), (iii) the bilateral euro 125 million credit facility granted to Pirelli & C. S.p.A. during the course of the third quarter of 2019 ("Bilateral 125") and, (iv) the "Sustainable Credit Facility" signed on March 31, 2020, provide for the compliance with the maximum ratio between net debt and the gross operating margin (the "Total Net Leverage") as reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements of Pirelli & C. S.p.A.
For the sake of completeness, it should be noted that the obligation to comply with the financial covenants provided for by the ESG Financing 2022 and Financing 400 lapsed due to Pirelli & C. S.p.A. being assigned a public credit rating of BBB- by S&P Global Ratings and Fitch Ratings.
For all of the loans indicated above, any failure to comply with the financial covenant is identified as a default or non-fulfilment event.

Specifically, any such default or non-fulfilment event will have the following consequences, if the lending banks exercise their relative remedies: (i) for the "Schuldschein" loan, individually and independently if requested by each lending bank for their own share, the early repayment of the loan for that share only; (ii) for both the "Bilateral 600" and the "Bilateral 125", if requested by the sole bank that had granted each of the loans, the termination of the contract and early repayment of the full amount disbursed and (iii) for the "Sustainable Credit Facility", only if requested by a number of the lending banks representing at least 50% of the total commitment (or at least 60% if an additional lending bank is added to the current four), the termination of the contract and early repayment of the loan.
It should be noted that at June 30, 2022 no default or non-fulfilment event had occurred.
The "ESG Financing 2022", the "Schuldschein" loan, the "Bilateral 600", the "Bilateral 125", the "Sustainable Credit Line" and the "Financing 400" also contain Negative Pledge clauses and other customary provisions whose terms are consistent with market standards for each of the above-mentioned types of credit facilities.
The other outstanding financial payables at June 30, 2022 were not subject to financial covenants.

- euro 3,251 thousand for payables related to customs duties, import and transport costs;
- euro 908 thousand in payables to Directors, auditors and supervisory bodies.
24. TAX PAYABLES
Tax payables were for the most part national and regional income taxes in different countries and amounted to euro 144,685 thousand (of which euro 1,118 thousand was for non-current liabilities), compared to euro 145,900 thousand at December 31, 2021 (of which euro 11,512 thousand was for non-current liabilities). Income tax payables include the assessments of management regard to any effects due to uncertainty in the treatment of income taxes.

Derivative Financial Instruments not in Hedge Accounting
The value of exchange rate derivatives included in current assets and liabilities corresponds to the fair value measurement of forward currency buy/sell contracts outstanding at the closing date for the period. These were hedge operations for the commercial and financial transactions of the Group for which the hedge accounting option had not been adopted. Their fair value was determined by using the forward exchange rate at the reporting date.
Derivative Financial Instruments in Hedge Accounting
The value of interest rate derivatives recognised under non-current assets to the amount of euro 1,763 thousand refers to the fair value of six interest rate swaps, with the following characteristics:
| Derivative | Hedged element | Notional amount (Euro million) |
Start date | Maturity | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| IRS IRS |
Term loan in EUR Schuldschein |
62.5 180.0 |
August 2019 July 2020 |
August 2023 July 2023 |
receive floating / pay fixed receive floating / pay fixed |
| IRS Total |
Schuldschein | 20.0 262.5 |
July 2020 | July 2025 | receive floating / pay fixed |
For these derivatives, hedge accounting of the cash flow hedge type was adopted. Items subjected to hedge accounting were:
- future interest flows on floating rate liabilities in EUR;
- future interest flows on the "Schuldschein" loan (refer to Note 21);
During the first quarter of 2022, the IRS forward start pre-hedge receive floating EURIBOR / pay fixed EURIBOR were closed early as a result of the contractual mandatory break clause. The cumulative positive reserve at the date, amounting to euro 22,079 thousand, was suspended in equity as the future transaction subject to hedging is still highly probable.
The change in the fair value for the period was a positive euro 21,771 thousand (euro 17,732 thousand relative to Interest Rate Swaps in pre-hedge and euro 4,039 thousand relative to other Interest Rate Swaps). This change was entirely suspended in equity, while net interest expenses to the amount of euro 2,173 thousand were reversed to the Income Statement under "Financial Expenses" (Note 35), correcting the financial expenses recognised on the hedged liability.
Following the early repayment of the unsecured financing ("Facilities") to the amount of USD 1,079 million (refer to Note 21), the CCIRS pay floating EURIBOR / receive floating LIBOR were partly extinguished early and partly discontinued.
The positive fair value reserve amounting to euro 4,178 thousand (positive cash flow hedge reserve of euro 2,702 thousand and positive cost of hedging reserve of euro 1,477 thousand) was entirely reversed to the Income Statement:
- income of euro 7,302 thousand which offset the net realised exchange rate losses recognised on the hedged liability;
- net interest income to the amount of euro 82 thousand to correct financial expenses recognised on the hedged liability;
- costs due to ineffectiveness to the amount of euro 3,206 thousand.

For the CCIRS held in the portfolio until their natural maturity, hedge accounting was discontinued and the positive change in their fair value of euro 48,130 million was entirely reversed to the Income Statement. This positive change was offset by a negative change in the fair value of FX contracts traded to hedge the CCIRS, for which hedge accounting was not adopted. These effects are included in "Financial Expenses - Fair value measurement of exchange rate derivatives".
26. COMMITMENTS AND RISKS
COMMITMENTS FOR THE PURCHASE OF PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The commitments to purchase property, plant and equipment and intangible assets amounted to euro 131,323 thousand and euro 6,562 thousand respectively and refer mainly to subsidiary companies in Romania, Brazil, Italy, China, Germany and Mexico.
COMMITMENTS FOR THE PURCHASE OF EQUITY INVESTMENTS/FUND SHARES
These refer to commitments to purchase shares in Equinox Two S.C.A., a private equity company, for a maximum amount of euro 2,158 thousand.
OTHER RISKS
Litigation against the Companies of the Prysmian Group before the Court of Milan
A cases is currently pending before the Court of Milan (resulting from the joining of two separate proceedings - see below) as a result of the decision issued on April 2, 2014 by the European Commission (as confirmed in the final instance by the Court of Justice of the European Union on October 28, 2020), at the conclusion of the antitrust investigation commenced in relation to alleged conduct of restricting competition in the European high voltage electric cables market. The decision had provided for sanctions against Prysmian Cavi e Sistemi S.r.l. ("Prysmian CS") as it was directly involved in the cartel, a portion of which (euro 67 million) Pirelli, despite not having been found to be directly involved in the activities of the cartel, had been held to be jointly and severally liable with Prysmian CS, based solely on the application of the so-called parental liability principle, since during part of the period of the infringement, the share capital of Prysmian CS was held, either directly or indirectly by Pirelli.
On December 31, 2020, Pirelli proceeded to pay its share of the aforementioned sanction to the European Commission (corresponding to 50% of the sanction, plus interest), for which it had previously made appropriate provisions.
Pending the settlement of the aforementioned EU Court proceedings, in November 2014, Pirelli brought an action before the Court of Milan in order to obtain an assessment and declaratory judgement of the obligation of Prysmian CS to hold Pirelli harmless and indemnified against any claim relating to the alleged anti-competitive cartel in the energy cables sector, including the sanction imposed by the European Commission.

Prysmian CS filed an appearance in the aforementioned proceedings requesting the dismissal of Pirelli's claims, as well as, by way of a counterclaim, as well as to be held indemnified by Pirelli in relation to the consequences arising from or in any way connected to the Decision of the European Commission. The proceedings had been suspended pending the final ruling of the EU Courts and were resumed by Pirelli on November 30, 2020 following the ruling of the Court of Justice.
In October 2019, Pirelli brought a further action before the Court of Milan against Prysmian CS. and Prysmian S.p.A. requesting the assessment and declaratory judgement of Prysmian CS's obligation to indemnify and also hold Pirelli harmless from any charges, expenses, costs and/or damages resulting from claims by private and/or public third parties (including authorities other than the European Commission) relative to, connected with and/or consequential to the facts that were subject to the decision of the European Commission, as well as the consequent order that Prysmian CS reimburse any charges, expenses, costs or damages incurred or suffered by Pirelli.
In these proceedings, Pirelli also requested that Prysmian CS and Prysmian S.p.A. be held liable for certain unlawful conduct connected with the abovementioned anti-competitive cartel and accordingly, that they be ordered to pay compensation for all damages suffered and to be suffered by Pirelli.
Lastly, Pirelli requested the assessment and declaratory judgement on the joint and several liability of Prysmian S.p.A. with Prysmian CS in relation to the amounts that will be paid in this new action and in the action commenced in November 2014, if they should not be satisfied by the latter.
Prysmian CS and Prysmian S.p.A. entered an appearance in the above proceedings in November 2020, seeking the dismissal of Pirelli's claims and, by way of a counter-claim, to be held harmless and indemnified by Pirelli in relation to any consequences arising from claims by private and/or public third parties relating to, connected with and/or consequential to the facts which are the subject of the decision of the European Commission.
In April 2021, the two judgements were joined.
Based on careful analyses supported by authoritative external legal opinions, the assessment of the risk related to the disputes described above is such as to not require the allocation of any specific provision in the Consolidated Financial Statements at June 30, 2022.
Other Disputes related to the European Commission Decision
In November, 2015, a number of companies of Prysmian Group served Pirelli with a summons in the action for the compensation of damages brought before the London High Court of Justice against them and other defendants of the Decision of the European Commission of April 2, 2014, by National Grid and Scottish Power, the companies who claim to have been harmed by the cartel. Specifically, the companies of the Prysmian Group have requested that Goldman Sachs and Pirelli, the latter due to its role as Parent Company for part of the period of the cartel, hold them harmless with respect to any obligations to pay damages (as yet unquantifiable) to the National Grid and Scottish Power. As the aforementioned action, brought before the Court of Milan in November 2014, is still pending, Pirelli has challenged the lack of jurisdiction of the London High Court of Justice claiming that, that any decision on the merits must be referred to the Court that had previously heard the case. In April 2016, the High Court of Justice, at the request of Pirelli and the companies in the Prysmian Group,

suspended the proceedings until a final judgment was passed that would settle the Italian proceedings already pending.
In April 2019, before the Court of Milan, Terna S.p.A. - Rete Elettrica Nazionale ("Terna") jointly and severally sued Pirelli, three Prysmian Group companies and another company of the aforementioned European Commission decision, in order to obtain compensation for the damage allegedly suffered as a consequence of the anti-competitive conduct, currently quantified by the plaintiff as euro 199.9 million. Pirelli appeared in court contesting Terna's claims, and like the other defendants and against them filed a counterclaim for damages in the unlikely event that it is held jointly and severally liable for the anti-competitive cartel.
In October 2021, the Judge dismissed from the proceedings, the portion of the litigation consisting of the indemnity cross-claims between Pirelli, on one side, and Prysmian CS and Prysmian S.p.A., on the other, ordering their joinder with the proceedings pending between the two parties before the Court of Milan (see above).
Lastly, also in April 2019, the Electricity & Water Authority of Bahrain, GCC Interconnection Authority, Kuwait Ministry of Electricity and Water and Oman Electricity Transmission Company, served a writ of summons against Pirelli, some of the Prysmian Group companies and other defendants of the aforementioned decision of the European Commission, suing them jointly and severally to obtain compensation for the damages allegedly suffered as a result of the alleged anti-competitive conduct. These proceedings were brought before the Court of Amsterdam, who with its ruling dated November 25, 2020, upheld the objection raised by Pirelli and excluded its own jurisdiction over Pirelli. In February 2021, the plaintiffs appealed against this ruling before the Amsterdam Court of Appeal and the relevant proceedings are under way.
Based on careful analyses supported by authoritative external legal opinions, the assessment of the risk related to the disputes described above is such as to not require the allocation of any specific provision in the Consolidated Financial Statements at June 30, 2022.
Tax Disputes
Brazil
Litigation concerning the IPI Tax Rate Applicable to certain types of Tyres
The subsidiary Pirelli Pneus Ltda is party to a tax dispute with the Brazilian tax authorities concerning the IPI tax rate (Imposto sobre Produtos Industrializados or tax on industrialised products) particularly with reference to the tax rate applicable to the production and importation of tyres for the Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV), vans and other industrial transportation vehicles (such as, for example, trucks). According to statements by the Brazilian tax authorities in the tax assessment notices issued during the course of 2015, 2017 and 2021 the aforementioned tyres should have been subjected to the IPI tax rate for the production and importation of tyres for cars – with an applicable rate of 15% instead of the 2% rate applied by Pirelli Pneus Ltda, as is required for the production and importation of tyres destined for heavy industrial use vehicles. To date, the dispute is pending before the competent administrative and tax commissions and, also in light of the recent judgement in favour of Pirelli Pneus Ltda, the Group maintains that it has a good chance of winning. This position is also supported by an appraisal prepared by a Brazilian government institution (the INT - National Institute

of Technology) specifically commissioned by Pirelli Pneus Ltda, who concluded their analysis by comparing the tyres discussed, in light of their similar characteristics, with those used for heavy industrial vehicles.
The risk is estimated at approximately euro 32 million, inclusive of tax, interests and penalties.
The risk of losing the case has not been assessed as probable and, therefore, as a result no liability has been accrued in the Financial Statements for this dispute.
Litigation concerning Transfer Pricing applied to some Inter-Group Transactions
Pirelli Pneus Ltda is involved in a dispute with the Brazilian tax authorities for income tax purposes (IRPJ - Imposto sobre a renda das pessoas jurídicas) and social security contributions (CSLL - Contribuição Social sobre o Lucro Líquido) due from the company for the 2008, 2011 and 2012 tax periods, deriving from the application of transfer pricing regulations to import transactions with related parties. Based on the notices of the assessment served on the company during the course of 2013, 2015 and 2016, the Brazilian tax authorities are mainly contesting the incorrect application by the company, of the methodology provided for by the administrative practice in force at the time (IN - Instrução Normativa 243), for the assessment of transfer prices applied to the importation of goods from related parties. To date, the dispute filed by the company is pending before the competent administrative-judicial courts. The Group maintains that it has a good chance of winning and, in this regard, Pirelli Pneus Ltda has already obtained a favourable ruling from the administrative court, which has recognised the company's arguments by reducing the amount originally contested by the Brazilian tax authorities.
In light of the above, the risk is estimated at approximately euro 13 million inclusive of taxes, sanctions and interest.
The risk of losing the case has not been assessed as probable and, therefore, as a result no liability has been accrued in the Financial Statements for this dispute.
Disputes concerning the IPI Tax Rate for the Sale of Tyres to the Automotive Sector
Pirelli Pneus Ltda is also party to a dispute concerning the IPI tax rate, (Imposto sobre Produtos Industrializados or tax on industrialised products), concerning the sale of components to companies operating in the automotive sector. According to the Brazilian tax authorities in a notice of assessment issued in 2013, Pirelli Pneus Ltda was not entitled to benefit, with reference to its secondary office located in the city of Ibiritè in the Federal State of Minas Gerais, from the IPI exemption provided for by law in the case of sales of particular components to companies operating in the automotive sector. The dispute is under discussion before the competent administrative-

judicial courts, however the Group maintains that it has well founded reasons to object to the tax administration's claim.
The risk is estimated at approximately euro 17 million, inclusive of tax, interests and penalties.
The risk of losing the case has not been assessed as probable and, therefore, as a result no liability has been accrued in the Financial Statements for this dispute.
Litigation concerning the Tax Impact deriving from the so called "Plano Verão"
Pirelli Pneus Ltda is involved in a dispute over taxes with the Brazilian tax authorities, which, in the company's opinion, levied more tax than was actually due - for the period from 1989 to 1994 following the so called "Plano Verão", an economic measure introduced by the then Brazilian government, in order to control the hyperinflation that was affecting the country, by freezing prices. However, the difference between the actual and the indexed inflation had the effect of creating significant distortions in the financial statements of companies and ultimately, the amount of taxes paid by them. Pirelli Pneus Ltda used the actual inflation rate for its financial statement assessments, and, at the same time, initiated legal proceedings to assert its arguments regarding the correct amount of taxes due. During the course of the aforementioned proceedings, Pirelli Pneus Ltda first adhered to an amnesty for tax disputes in order to settle the dispute in question and, only subsequently, on the basis of a ruling with binding effect erga omnes by the Brazilian Supreme Court, did it request the annulment of the effects of the amnesty, to which it had previously adhered.
Proceedings are underway before the competent judicial courts and the risk is estimated to be up to a maximum euro 30 million, inclusive of taxes, interest and sanctions.
The risk of losing the case has not been assessed as probable and, therefore, as a result no liability has been accrued in the Financial Statements for this dispute.
Litigation relating to the PIS and COFINS Tax Base
Pirelli Pneus Ltda is party to new and significant tax proceedings regarding federal taxes, namely the PIS - Programa de Integração Social, the COFINS tax - Contribução para Financiamento de Seguridade Social and the ICMS state value added tax. Specifically, Pirelli Pneus Ltda is a party to a dispute concerning the methods for calculating the tax base for PIS and COFINS taxes and the

right to deduct the ICMS reported on invoices, based on the tax authorities' interpretation provided in the Solução - COSIT Internal Consultation Solution No. 13.
Proceedings are underway before the competent jurisdictions with the risk estimated as being up to a maximum euro 15 million, inclusive of taxes, interest and sanctions. .
The risk of losing the case has not been assessed as probable and, therefore, as a result no liability has been accrued in the Financial Statements for this dispute.

The item fair value measurement of exchange rate derivatives refers to forward foreign exchange buy/sell transactions to hedge commercial and financial transactions, in accordance with the Group's exchange rate risk management policy.

37. EARNINGS/(LOSSES) PER SHARE

REVIEW REPORT ON CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF AND FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED 30 JUNE 2022


REVIEW REPORT ON CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
To the shareholders of Pirelli & C. SpA
Foreword
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Pirelli & C. SpA and its subsidiaries (Pirelli & C. group) as of and for the six-month period ended 30 June 2022 comprising the statement of financial position, the income statement, the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of changes in shareholders' equity, the statement of cash flows and the related notes. Pirelli & C. SpA directors are responsible for the preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with international accounting standard applicable to interim financial reporting (IAS34) as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed consolidated interim financial statements based on our review.
Scope of the review
We conducted our work in accordance with the criteria for a review recommended by Consob in Resolution 10867 of 31 July 1997. A review of condensed consolidated interim financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than a fullscope audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISA Italia) and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Pirelli & C. group as of and for the six-month period ended 30 June 2022 have not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the international accounting standard applicable to interim financial reporting (IAS34), as adopted by the European Union.
