Nerio Alessandri, Chairman and CEO, said:
"In 2019 Technogym continues to grow in a sustainable and profitable way, achieving a record cash generation.
The new year began with the Covid-19 epidemic in China, which then spread all over the world, opening a phase of great uncertainty. In this scenario we are strongly focused on preserving the health of our team, on limiting costs while maintaining our investment programs and staying close to our customers. In the medium-long term, we are confident that, after the Covid-19 emergency, the fitness & wellness trend will resume its growth trajectory; solid and well-structured companies must be ready to take advantage of the recovery as protagonists.
Now it is more than ever important to support our health system and the incredible work that our doctors, and nurses are doing, so we decided to donate 1 Million Euro to the intensive care units of Romagna's Hospitals, our region.
In the year just ended, revenues grew in all market segments and in all sales channels. With reference to the geographical areas, we are growing in all the most important territories for future development: Technogym continues to grow in North America (+ 13%) and APAC (+ 16%) and reports an important growth also in emerging geographies like MEIA (+ 10%) and LATAM (+ 15%).
Innovation remains the engine of Technogym's growth. In addition to innovation on the product and digital ecosystem, in 2019 we have focused on contents production: training experience videos to engage consumers.
At the end of 2019 we launched Technogym Bike, the first product offering users the possibility to select on-demand training videos from the equipment console at home, at the gym, at hotels or at the office, thanks to the Technogym Live platform. More Technogym Live cardio products will be launched in 2020.
When it comes to new products, in the year just ended we launched BIOCIRCUIT, the new circuit, for the health segment, able to offer, in 30 minutes, a complete and personalized workout, ideal for senior and female users. Thanks to artificial intelligence the equipment automatically adapts to the user in terms of intensity, effort progression, ergonomic posture and rehab program.
Looking to the future, we confirm our strategy of sustainable and profitable growth thanks to the raising interest of consumers in Wellness, the uniqueness of our solutions for the various market segments – not only fitness and sport but above all health - and thanks to the increased penetration in non-European markets.
We are currently living a moment of great uncertainty, therefor we are focused on keeping costs down and staying close to our customers; in the medium-long term, we are confident that, after the Covid-19 emergency is over, the fitness and wellness trend will resume its growth trajectory.
2020 will also be the year of the Olympics and Technogym will be Official and Exclusive Supplier of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, our eighth Olympic experience."

Cesena (Italy), March 17th, 2019 – The Board of Directors of TECHNOGYM (TGYM.MI), a leader in the international fitness, sport and health equipment market and operating in the broader Wellness industry, today examined and approved the consolidated financial statements and the draft financial statements for 2019, prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards IAS/IFRS. On this respect, we highlight the fact that 2019 is the first year of implementation of the accounting standard IFRS 16, therefore the economic and financial results in this section are commented upon excluding the effect of this principle, in order to maintain a homogeneous comparison basis with the corresponding period of 2018.
Technogym closed 2019 with revenue up in the key geographic areas for the future development, such as North America and the emerging geographies, and by consolidating its leadership in Europe, the most important geography for the company.
EBITDA Adjusted grew proportionally compared to revenue growth thanks to the increased focus on deals including the entire Total Wellness Solution – smart equipment, services, digital technologies and contents – that have compensated the increase in operating costs related to the development of new competences in digital and content development.
The net financial debt has improved compared to 2018 thanks to the relevant cash generation in the year, that has allowed Technogym to register a positive cash position in spite of the increasing investments.
Net Profit – adjusted on Patent Box and on other non-recurring components – also shows an improvement compared to last year.
With reference to innovation, in 2019 Technogym presented the innovative CLUB 4.0 concept. CLUB 4.0 is the new Technogym strategy to offer a wide variety of different training experiences within fitness clubs, in different areas, dedicated to different people with different needs and different passions. In line with its "Wellness on the go" strategy Technogym launched in November 2019 the new Technogym Live platform – soon available on all Technogym products – to allow users to select on demand training videos from the equipment console.
In the area of digital innovation, Technogym consolidates the leadership of the Mywellness Cloud digital platform, the only open ecosystem in the industry able to offer end-users a fully personalized experience both on Technogym equipment and outdoor, thank to dedicated apps. Today, Technogym counts on over 80.000 installed fitness and wellness clubs, out of which 15.000 are connected to the Mywellness Cloud digital platform and around 15 million people registered to this service.
Finally, Technogym confirms its commitment in marketing and communication activities to position Technogym as a Premium brand in the BtoB sector and a Prestige brand within BtoC and recently has been appointed as Official Supplier to the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, the 8th experience for Technogym as partner of the Olympics.

Performance in 2019
Consolidated results have been prepared in compliance with the International Reporting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. On this respect, we highlight the fact that 2019 is the first year of implementation of the accounting standard IFRS 16, therefore the economic and financial results in this section are commented upon excluding the effect of this principle, in order to maintain a homogeneous comparison basis with the corresponding period of 2018.
Below you can find a brief comment on Revenues, based on the Geographical Area and the Distribution Channels, and on the other main economic and financial figures.
1) Revenue
In line with the previous years, also in 2019 Technogym has registered a revenue growth: +5.5%, (+3.8% at constant exchange rates). The company recorded the best sales performances in strategic areas for the mid-term growth such as North America (+13.4%) and APAC (+16.1%), in spite of the slippage of some orders in the last quarter. Within the Asia Pacific region, we highlight the relevant performance of Australia (+30% in local currency). In Europe, the most important geography, the company grows by +1.7%: the slowdown in the UK, due to Brexit finalization and the weakness in Russia have balanced the good performances in Germany and France. Latin America (+15.3%) and Middle East, India and Africa (+9.9%) achieved an important result supported by the excellent performances of Brazil and the UAE respectively. Finally, Italy is down (-8.0%) on 2018, but 2018 results had benefited from an anticipation of purchase decisions by some important Key Accounts.

growth in APAC and MEIA. The inside sales channel (Ecommerce & teleselling) improves compared to the previous year thanks to the Consumer channel growth also in the extra-European geographies. The Retail channel, that has a marginal impact on the company business model, with its main purpose to act as show room support for the other main direct sales channels, benefits from the excellent performance of the European stores that have more than compensated the difficulties in Russia.

EBITDA Adjusted stood at Euro 141.5 million, increasing by 7.1 million Euro (+5.3%) on 2018 (Euro 134.4 million). This increase is mainly due to: (i) the rise in sales volumes; (ii) the improvement of the product mix and partially mitigated by (iii) higher logistics costs, (iv) costs related to sales channels development and market coverage and (v) cost related to the introduction of new skills to support digital business development. The EBITDA has been adjusted for 4.2 million Euro in non-recurring costs attributable to higher operating costs due to inefficiencies deriving from the reorganization processes of some commercial branches; non-recurring expenses in 2018 amounted to € 3 million.

The net operating income Adjusted operating result with the application of the accounting standard IFRS 16 stands at Euro 112.6 million.

Net Profit Adjusted reached Euro 85.4 million in 2019, up by Euro 1.9 million (+2.2%) compared to Euro 83.5 million reported in 2018.

Euro 7.4 million during the year. With the application of the accounting principle IFRS 16, the Adjusted Group Profit is equal to Euro 85.2 million.

Outlook
Considering the current situation linked to the socio-economic effects of Covid-19 (so-called Coronavirus) and the uncertainty regarding the duration and expansion of this epidemic, it is premature today to make predictions on the evolution of the coming months. The short-term evolution will not however compromise the long-term fundamentals of the business and the continuous and growing interest for wellness of people of all generations.
In this scenario, Technogym confirms the medium-term development guidelines, which set the objective of pursuing constant and sustainable economic growth, in order to create value for shareholders over time.

In any case, the Board of Directors, the control bodies and the management of the Company will continue to constantly monitor the evolution of the health emergency resulting from the spread of COVID-19, adopting all the decisions and measures necessary to face the emergency.

The commitment to product innovation will continue with a specific focus on equipment training experience improvement thanks to digital services supported by the open MyWellness platform and thanks to the launch of Technogym Live on the installed equipment base. This will allow end users to access new training content wherever they are, thus creating another step forward in the company's Wellness on the Go strategy. Alongside the wide product portfolio, Technogym will continue to invest in its team skills in order to guarantee customers a service of excellence in line with the brand's aspirational standards.
