Of particular note during the period:

The Group's capital solidity remains particularly high, with a Solvency II ratio6 of 247.0% at the end of the quarter (269.3% as at 31 December 2022). The change, related to business development, is in line with expected evolution in the medium term.
As at 31 March 2023, 150,815 treasury shares were held in the portfolio, amounting to approximately 0.61% of the share capital7.
After a first quarter marked by moderating inflation and growth dynamics, but also by sharp volatility in financial markets, the macroeconomic outlook of the second quarter of 2023 will be characterised by the monetary policy decisions of the major central banks and the impact of tighter financial conditions on the global economy. Eurozone growth in the first quarter remained positive, with Italy rallying above the European average.
Against this macroeconomic backdrop, which is expected not to affect REVO's ability to implement its business plan, the ongoing programme of development of key projects will continue, including the launch of new specialty and parametric products, the increasing use of the OverX platform, the expansion of the distribution network and the ongoing reinforcement of the management team.
It should be noted that the Shareholders' Meeting, which met in ordinary and extraordinary session on 19 April 2023, approved all items on the agenda.
6 Calculation based on the adoption of the Standard Formula.
7 Share capital comprising ordinary shares only.

In particular, at the said meeting, following the resignation of the Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors, Mr. Alfredo Malguzzi, effective as from 19 April, the Shareholders' Meeting appointed the new Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors in the person of Mr Saverio Ugolini, who shall remain in office until the natural expiry of the entire Board, scheduled for the approval of the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2023.
Pursuant to paragraph 2 of Article 154-bis of the Consolidated Law on Finance, Company Financial Reporting Officer Jacopo Tanaglia declares that the accounting information contained in this press release corresponds to the Company's documentary evidence, books and records.
