Somec's Chairman Oscar Marchetto has commented: "The results we are presenting today bear out the effectiveness of the path the Group has embarked on in the past two years. Business diversification is our key strength."
San Vendemiano (Treviso), 25 September 2025 – The Board of Directors of Somec S.p.A. (Euronext Milan: SOM), specialising in the design, production and deployment of complex turnkey civil and naval projects, met earlier today under the chairmanship of Oscar Marchetto to review and approve the consolidated half-year financial report for the period ended 30 June 2025.
Oscar Marchetto, Chairman of Somec stated: "The results we are presenting today, primarily the sharp improvement in margins and the robust return to operating profit, bear out the effectiveness of the path the Group has embarked on in the past two years. The naval sector, in which all three Somec business units are involved, is currently undergoing a dynamic phase at the international level. This has driven our portfolio to 769 million Euro, providing us with long-term visibility while cementing our leadership. Mestieri grew by over 25%, confirming the interest in Italian-made products and further demonstrating how business diversification is one of our key strengths."
In the first half of the financial year, consolidated revenues reached 192.7 million Euro, up 3.9% compared to the same period in 2024. Performance was supported by the strong contribution of naval projects, positively impacting the three divisions of the Group, as well as a significant rise in refitting volumes. Among the key areas of growth, the Mestieri division's results (+25.3%) stood out, along with the progress made by the Talenta division (+5.7%). The Horizons division, with a solid backlog and a well-diversified project pipeline in its key markets, experienced a slight decline (-3.5%), mainly due to

the timing of civil engineering projects. The revenues breakdown by region shows Europe's share rising to 51.5%, compared to 43.5% for the United States in the period under review, with the rest of the world accounting for 5.0%.
Consolidated EBITDA at 30 June 2025 grew significantly (+24.1%), reaching 15.8 million Euro (12.8 million Euro as 30 June 2024). The operating margin also improved, standing at 8.2% from 6.9% in the first half of 2024. The strong recovery in margins was mainly driven by the Horizons and Mestieri divisions, thanks to excellent performance in the naval sector, particularly in refitting activities. The stabilization of production costs, recent measures taken by the Group, and the completion of prior orders also contributed positively.
With regard to EBITDA by division, Horizons' EBITDA stood at 10.9 million Euro, up 17.9% compared to 9.2 million Euro in the first half of 2024, accounting for 9.4% of revenues compared to 7.7% in the first half of 2024.
Talenta division achieved EBITDA of 2.1 million Euro, broadly in line with the result for the first half of 2024 (2.2 million Euro).
Mestieri division more than doubled its EBITDA compared to the first half of 2024, rising from 1.4 million Euro to 2.9 million Euro (+107.7%). This result reflects the collection and processing of new orders with higher margins, as well as the benefits deriving from the new organisation and the adoption of more effective processes.
EBIT rose from 2.5 million Euro to 8.2 million Euro (+230.8%), while consolidate net result returned to positive territory at 2.0 million Euro (compared to a loss of 1.2 million Euro in the first half of 2024).
The Net Financial Position before IFRS 16 at 30 June 2025 stood at 40.4 million Euro, slightly up on 31 December 2024 (36.1 million Euro) but significantly down on 30 June 2024 (57.7 million Euro), primarily due to a temporary increase in working capital. Reducing financial leverage remains one of the Group's key priorities.
At 15 July 2025, the Group's total backlog — to be executed over a timeline from the current financial year to 2033 — stood at 769 million Euro, of which 17.3% under option. This backlog figure includes orders announced on 14 July 2025, amounting to 110 million Euro.
As regards other financial indicators at 30 June 2025, net working capital amounted to 3.1 million Euro, showing an increase of 5.8 million Euro compared to -2.8 million Euro at 31 December 2024. The Group's Shareholders' equity totalled 20.6 million Euro at 30 June 2025, up from 13.7 million Euro at 31 December 2024, reflecting the capital increase made and the result for the six months under review.
The Shareholders' Meeting of Somec S.p.A., held on 29 April 2025, approved: (i) the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024; (ii) the first section of the report on remuneration policy and remuneration paid, with a binding vote, and gave a favourable advisory vote on the second section; and (iii) the authorisation to purchase and dispose of treasury shares.

On 23 May 2025, the Board of Directors of Somec S.p.A. approved a paid, non-divisible capital increase, totalling 6,110,000 Euro, including share premium.
The capital increase in kind resulted in the issuance of a total of 381,875 ordinary shares, with no par value, representing 5.53% of Somec's capital prior to the increase. These shares carry regular dividend rights and have the same characteristics as currently outstanding shares, with an issue price of 16.00 Euro per share. The new shares were admitted to trading on the Euronext Milan market.
As part of the reorganization and integration process of the Talenta business unit, on 1 August 2025 Inoxtrend S.r.l. was merged by incorporation into Gico S.p.A., the former specialising in ovens for professional cooking. The merger of the legal entities was also followed by the integration of the production sites into a single location, with a modernisation of the industrial footprint.
Despite the ongoing global volatility and uncertainty, tourism-related sectors continue to show growth, driving investment in the cruise and hotel industries, where the Group maintains a strong presence.
Geographical diversification combined with leadership in resilient sectors such as shipbuilding and the extensive, multi-year visibility of the backlog allow us to confirm the margin improvement and deleveraging targets announced at the beginning of the financial year.
