…ABRUPTLY INTERRUPTED IN MARCH BY THE CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC

After Italy, from mid-March, the spread of Covid-19 escalated across Europe and the USA, with the most severe measures of national lockdowns and halt of business heavily impacting the last two weeks of the month and the overall Q1 performance

  • ➢ Further significant deceleration of business activity in April, reflecting the almost complete shutdown of the various distribution channels in which the Group sells its products. Online business the exception, together with the significant improvement of sales trends in China;
  • ➢ Very gradual and patchy re-start of sector activities between May and June driving Safilo's expectation for a more significant net sales decline and negative operating results in Q2;
  • ➢ Outlook for the full year 2020 still impossible to provide given the still high level of uncertainty surrounding the Covid-19 pandemic and the future recovery of economies worldwide.

Appendices

    1. In Q1 2020, the adjusted EBITDA excludes non-recurring costs for Euro 2.4 million, due to restructuring expenses related to the ongoing cost saving program.
