WHAT'S NEXT ?

However, the recovery has encountered headwinds from material and component shortages as well as transportation bottlenecks, with several sectors not able to increase production fast enough to accommodate the

We expect the easing in supply chain disruptions will be gradual, with capacity remaining tight and price pressures firm for the rest of this year. Rebuilding inventories and clearing backlogs will take time.

  • Global industry has recovered strongly from the pandemic.
  • strong rebound in demand.
  • investment growth revised higher in 2021 and 2022.
  • future growth as supply disruptions gradually ease.
  • We forecast global MT consumption will rebound by 16.3% in 2021 and 11.1% in 2022.

TRADING UPDATES

UPDATES & TRENDS

RESILIENCE PRIMA'S

Prima Industrie Group benefits from three factors of resilience

1 a strong geographical distribution worldwide

  • 2 a high diversification of industries served, which are impacted by
    -
    -

different cyclicality and diversified macro trends

3 an important share of revenues coming from after sales activities (approx. 30%), which represent a stable source of sales linked to high number of machines installed

RECENT UPDATES & DIGITALIZATION

Augmented reality: innovative remote assistance

The customer's technicians, equipped with smartphones or tablets, can communicate remotely and share video images in real time with our

experts.

Mixed reality assistance: virtual view

Technological glasses which allow physical reality to interact with holograms. Thanks to proprietary applications loaded on these glasses, Prima Power applies the enormous potential of mixed reality to remote

assisted training and maintenance activities.

3 - DIGITALIZATION OF PROCESSES

In recent years, the Group has increased the digitization of its business processes, both internal and aimed at relations with customers and other

relevant stakeholders.

The 2020 pandemic has accelerated this process The digitalization involved all the main processes:

available to connect a high number of employees; Accounting dpt);

-

  • People: smartworking increased, making devices and instruments
  • Sales processes: SalesForce, from marketing campaigns to management of the whole selling process (including Project mgt and
  • After sales: Prima Service Tool, allowing real time intervention through accessing data necessary for the installation and maintenance of the machine, reducing unexpected stops.

Growing commitment to sustainability and ESG targets

Machines and plants increasingly environment friendly

Particular attention to human resources representing a fundamental asset for the future of the Group (smart working, diversity, training, talent retention)

400people 20,000 sqm area

Buildings with high environmental sustainability, equipped with photovoltaic panels, geothermal energy and home automation.

NEW MANUFACTURING PLANT 4 – ESG FACTORS

Total investment since 2016: 25 million euros.

5 - FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY

In an uncertain moment at the beginning of the pandemic, the Group negotiated

  • No liquidity issues throughout the crisis
  • additional credit lines (unsecured) as a precaution
  • (Including Euro 35.7 million of IFRS 16 impact) in 2020.

Despite the additional credit lines obtained, the Group paid particular attention to the management of working capital and, consequently, reduced the net financial exposure by approximately Euro 11 million to Euro 96.3 million

AUTOMOTIVE MARKET TREND

"Now, two trends in vehicle sales and output are making lightweighting even more important: the sharp rise of SUV and light truck sales growth, and the quickening transition to electric vehicles. These shifts have made it even more important for manufacturers to use lightweight, highstrength materials, for example in reducing fuel consumption in larger vehicles. For electric vehicles, lithium-ion batteries and battery enclosures add significant weight to vehicles, with manufacturers looking to materials across exteriors and interiors to offset this weight." Automotive Manufacturing solutions 27/09/21

ADDITIONAL DOOR APPLICATIONS

Pioneer with the first ever application of this solution made by Plannja Hardtech, (later SSAB Hardtech and then Gestamp), for the Ford F150 pickup in the mid 90's.

The F150 had a small HSS B -pillar inserted in the additional door made in Lulea with our Rapido machine and shipped to Michigan for assembly.

Today … the «magic doors» of the «500 e 3+1» are made by Prima's 3D machines !

AUTOMOTIVE MARKET TREND: ONE EXAMPLE

The pandemic hit hard on the civil aerospace: global air traffic has been brought to an almost complete standstill by the COVID -19 outbreak.

While there have been other instances of significant drops in air traffic in the past, they have generally been regional. Never have we seen a sustained global collapse of air traffic as we're seeing now because of the travel restrictions necessitated by COVID -19.

The market is expected to grow from \$298.0 billion in 2020 to \$430.9 billion in 2025 at a rate of 7.7%. The market is then expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% from 2025 to 2030.

The growth is mainly due to the companies rearranging their operations and recovering from the COVID -19 impact, which had earlier led to restrictive containment measures

involving social distancing, remote working, and the closure of commercial activities that resulted in operational challenges.

AEROSPACE MARKET TREND

AEROSPACE MARKET

  • TREND Defense aerospace and space economy instead appear to be resilient to the crisis.
    • Satellite broadband will represent 50% of the projected growth of the global space economy by 2040,
    • Launching satellites that offer broadband Internet service will help to drive down the cost of data, just as demand for that data explodes (driven by autonomous cars, IoT, A.I., VR, video,..)

Urbanization remains a major demographic trend across much of the world, though urban centers have been reinvented by changes the pandemic brought in how people live and work in cities.

This future growth will provide a continuous and increasing request of public and private infrastructure
