Tangible and intangible fixed assets (other than Goodwill) of PRIMA INDUSTRIE Group decreased by 3,385 Euro thousand from the previous year. Movements in the half-year were for:
- net increases of 6,158 Euro thousand in the period (3,948 Euro thousand for development costs);
- amortization and depreciation accounted for 8,567 Euro thousand;
- negative exchange rates 976 Euro thousand.
The half-year change in Goodwill is attributable to currency adjustments only.
Investments and other non-current assets decreased by 789 Euro thousand, as a result of:
- reclassification of 1,009 Euro thousand of the shareholding in EPS SA (whose book value is 881 Euro thousand and accounts for 13.1% of all shares) from an asset valuated using the equity method to a non-current asset destined for sale;
- increase of 220 Euro thousand in other equity investments due to the acquisition of shareholdings in the Italian company 3D-NT, active in additive manufacturing, and in the Malaysian company PRIMA POWER Sheet Metal Solution. Both these investments are held directly by PRIMA INDUSTRIE SpA.
The Operational Working Capital increased by 9,513 Euro thousand compared to the previous year. At June 30th, 2017 the Group's net indebtedness stood at 95,490 Euro thousand, down from 104,142 Euro thousand at June 30th, 2016 and up from 84,215 Euro thousand at December 31st, 2016. The increase in indebtedness in the first half of 2017 is mainly due to the increase in Group working capital. This increase reflects the higher-than-expected volumes in the next quarters of the year.

Net Equity increased by 793 Euro thousand from the previous year. This increase is due to the positive effects of the results of the Parent Company (7,449 Euro thousand) and the change to the fair value adjustment reserve for derivatives (58 Euro thousand), which were attenuated by the negative effects of the conversion reserve (3,558 Euro thousand), the dividend payment (3,145 Euro thousand) and the change in minority shareholders' equity (11 Euro thousand).

ATYPICAL AND UNUSUAL TRANSACTIONS
Pursuant to Consob Bulletin of July 28th2019, with the full or simplified retrospective method described above in relation to IFRS 15. IFRS 16 replaces IAS 17 - Leases and its related interpretations, IFRIC 4 - Determining whether an Arrangement Contains a Lease, SIC 15 -Operating Leases - Incentives, SIC 27 - Evaluating the Substance of Transactions involving the Legal form of a Lease. For the lessee, IFRS 16 requires that for all passive lease contracts, regardless of whether they are operational or financial in nature, a liability should be entered in the balance sheet, represented by the current value of future lease fees, against an entry among the assets of the right to use the leased asset. Leases of less than or equal to 12 months' duration and leases of low value assets can be exempt from application of IFRS 16. The main impacts of the new standard on the financial statements will be: a) balance sheet and financial position, greater non-current assets due to the inclusion of the right to use the leased asset set off against financial payables; b) income statement, inclusion of amortization of the right to use the leased asset and interest charges on current operating lease fees.
- Amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows, Disclosure Initiative. The changes made concern the information that companies will have to provide to enable investors to evaluate the changes in liabilities from financing activities. The new provisions will apply from the years beginning on or after January 1, 2006 no. DEM/6064296, we wish to specify that in the examined period, the Group has not engaged in transactions defined as atypical or unusual in the Bulletin.

ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS EFFECTIVE FROM JANUARY 1ST, 2017
There are no accounting standards and interpretations adopted by the European Union and in force as of January 1st, 2017.
ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BY IASB AND TRANSPOSED BY THE EUROPEAN UNION
At the date of this half-year report, the following principles have been issued by the IASB and incorporated by the European Union:
- IFRS 15 Revenues from Contracts with Customers: on October 29thting to 9,965 Euro thousand (of which 985 Euro thousand expire within 12 months);
- other financial debts for 4,372 Euro thousand (of which 1,229 Euro thousand expire within 12 months ); such debts refer mainly to government loans.
Financial indicators ("Covenants")
Both the Club-Deal loan agreement and the Bond require compliance with certain economic and financial ratios (covenants) for their entire period of duration and with variable values in the different measurement periods.
, 2016, EU Regulation no. 2016/1905 transposing IFRS 15 - Revenues from Contracts with Customers was issued. IFRS 15 replaces IAS 18 - Revenue, IAS 11 - Construction Contracts and the related interpretations on revenue disclosure, consisting of IFRIC 13 - Customer Lovalty Programmes, IFRIC 15 - Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, IFRIC 18 - Transfers of assets from Customers and SIC 31 Revenue - Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services. The application of the new standard from January 1st405'3165>, 2018 will involve, alternatively, a method for re-determining all comparative periods presented in the financial statements ("full retrospective method") and a "simplified" method involving the cumulative effect of the first application of the principle that adjusts opening net equity for the year in which the new principle is adopted, with no change to the data concerning all the comparative periods presented. The new standard - which involves recognition of revenue specifically when control of goods or services is transferred to customers, at an amount reflecting the consideration that is expected to be received in return for those products or services - introduces a five-step methodology to analyse transactions and define the revenue recognition method in terms of both "point-in-time"/"over time" recognition, and in terms of total amounts. The Group does not expect the adoption of this principle to tangibly impact the recognition and valuation of its revenues.
- IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: On November 29thcial lease amounting to 9,965 Euro thousand (of which 985 Euro thousand expire within 12 months);
- other financial debts for 4,372 Euro thousand (of which 1,229 Euro thousand expire within 12 months ); such debts refer mainly to government loans.
Financial indicators ("Covenants")
Both the Club-Deal loan agreement and the Bond require compliance with certain economic and financial ratios (covenants) for their entire period of duration and with variable values in the different measurement periods.
, 2016, EU Regulation no. 2016/2067 transposing IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments concerning the classification, measurement and cancellation of financial assets/liabilities, the reduction in the value of financial instruments and the disclosure of hedging transactions was issued. IFRS 9, which will be applicable from January 1stre compliance with certain economic and financial ratios (covenants) for their entire period of duration and with variable values in the different measurement periods.
, 2018, (i) modifies the classification and valuation model for financial assets; (ii) introduces the concept of expected credit losses among the variables to be considered in the valuation and impairment of financial assets; (iii) modifies the provisions for hedge accounting.
The Group does not expect the adoption of this principle to tangibly impact the valuation of its assets, liabilities, costs and revenues.
ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BY IASB AND NOT YET TRANSPOSED BY THE EUROPEAN UNION
At the date of this half-year report, the following new principles and interpretations have been issued by the IASB but have not yet been transposed into European Union law:
- IFRS 16 Leases, applicable from 1 January 2019, with the full or simplified retrospective method described above in relation to IFRS 15. IFRS 16 replaces IAS 17 - Leases and its related interpretations, IFRIC 4 - Determining whether an Arrangement Contains a Lease, SIC 15 -Operating Leases - Incentives, SIC 27 - Evaluating the Substance of Transactions involving the Legal form of a Lease. For the lessee, IFRS 16 requires that for all passive lease contracts, regardless of whether they are operational or financial in nature, a liability should be entered in the balance sheet, represented by the current value of future lease fees, against an entry among the assets of the right to use the leased asset. Leases of less than or equal to 12 months' duration and leases of low value assets can be exempt from application of IFRS 16. The main impacts of the new standard on the financial statements will be: a) balance sheet and financial position, greater non-current assets due to the inclusion of the right to use the leased asset set off against financial payables; b) income statement, inclusion of amortization of the right to use the leased asset and interest charges on current operating lease fees.
- Amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows, Disclosure Initiative. The changes made concern the information that companies will have to provide to enable investors to evaluate the changes in liabilities from financing activities. The new provisions will apply from the years beginning on or after January 1st&:L;F%
, 2017, barring subsequent deferrals following approval of the amendments to the standards by the European Union, which had still not taken place at the date of this interim report. - Amendments to IAS 12 Income taxes, recognition of deferred tax assets for unrealised losses. The amendments made provide clarification regarding the recognition of deferred tax assets for debt instruments valued at fair value. The new provisions will apply from the years beginning on or after January 1stbr>, 2017, barring subsequent deferrals following approval of the changes to the standards by the European Union, which had still not taken place at the date of this interim report.

The Group will adopt these new principles, amendments and interpretations from their date of application. At this time no significant impacts on the financial statements are expected, with the exception of the effects of application of IFRS 16 - Leases, as described above.
USE OF ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The drawing up of an interim balance sheet requires the carrying out of estimates and assumptions which have effect on the values of revenues, costs, assets and liabilities of the balance sheet and on the information report relating to the potential assets and liabilities on the date of the interim balance sheet. If in the future, such estimates and assumptions which are based on the best evaluation by management, should differ through effective circumstances, they will be modified in an appropriate manner in the period in which the circumstance themselves vary. In particular, with regard to the condensed consolidated balance sheet of June 30th, 2017, the taxes on income for the period of the individual consolidated companies are determined on the basis of the best estimate possible in relation to the available information, and on a reasonable forecast of the progress of the financial year up to the end of the tax period.
This Half-Year Financial Report was authorized for publication by the Board of Directors on August 3rd, 2017.

If the hedged transaction is no longer presumed probable, the profits or losses as yet not accrued and suspended in the Other total profits/(losses) are immediately reported in the Profit & Loss.
- Fair value hedge. If a hedging instrument is designated to hedge the exposure to variations of the fair value of an asset or liability in the financial statements that are attributable to a particular risk which may affect the Income Statement, the profit or loss deriving from subsequent evaluations of the fair value of the hedging instrument are reported in the Profit & Loss. The profit or loss on the hedged item is attributable to the hedged risk, modifying the book value of that item, and is reported in the Profit & Loss.
- Hedge of a net investment. If a hedging instrument is designated to hedge a net investment in an offshore company, the effective share of profit or loss on the hedging instrument is reported in Other total profits/(losses). The cumulated profit or loss are written off from the Net Equity and entered in the Income Statement on the date in which the offshore asset is dismissed.
IFRS 7 requires the classification of financial instruments at fair value to be determined on the basis of the quality of the input sources used in their valuation.
The IFRS 7 classification has the following hierarchy:
- Level 1: fair value determined according to unadiusted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities:
- Level 2: fair value determined according to inputs other than quoted market prices included within Level 1 but which are either directly or indirectly observable. This category includes the instruments the Group uses to hedge risks arising from interest rate and exchange rate fluctuations:
- Level 3: fair value determined according to valuation models whose inputs are not based on observable inputs ("unobservable inputs"). There are no financial instruments valuated in this way.

REVIEW REPORT ON CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
REVIEW REPORT ON CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
To the Shareholders of Prima Industrie SpA
Foreword
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated condensed interim financial statements of Prima Industrie SpA and its subsidiaries ("Prima Industrie Group") as of 30 June 2017, comprising the statement of financial position, the income statement, the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of changes in shareholders' equity, the cash flow statement, and the related explanatory notes. The directors of Prima Industrie SpA are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated condensed interim financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 applicable to interim financial reporting (IAS 34) as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these consolidated condensed interim financial statements based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our work in accordance with the criteria for a review recommended by Consob in Resolution No. 10867 of 31 July 1997. A review of consolidated condensed interim financial statements consists of making enquiries, 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 consolidated condensed interim financial statements.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated condensed interim financial statements of the Prima Industrie Group as of 30 June 2017 are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 applicable to interim financial reporting (IAS 34) as adopted by the European Union.
Other aspects
The consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended 31 December 2016 and the consolidated condensed interim financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2016 were audited and reviewed, respectively, by other auditors, who on 16 March 2017 expressed an unqualified opinion on the consolidated financial statements, and on 30 August 2016 expressed an unqualified conclusion on the consolidated condensed interim financial statements.
As explained in the paragraph "Form and content" of the explanatory notes to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements as of 30 June 2017, as a result of the decision to present the income statement by function from the financial year 2017, the directors have restated the comparative data of the income statement as of 30 June 2016, with respect to those previously presented and subject to a review by another auditor.
