Premise
From 1st January 2018 the Group has adopted the IFRS 15 Accounting Principle "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" and the Accounting Principle IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments", which required modifications of the accounting policies and changes to the amounts reported. The comparative 2017 data have not been restated. As a result the Income Statement variations evidenced on the following page are prejudiced, even if not in a material manner, as a result of the different accounting treatment bases.
The analysis of the Business Units which follows utilized, instead, 2018 data that does not reflect the application of IFRS 15 and IFRS 9. The analysis therefore compares 2018 1H data and 2017 1H data on a "2017 IFRS" basis, and therefore they have been compiled on a comparable basis.

1 2018 data without the application of accounting principles IFRS15 and IFRS 9, which were adopted from 1 January 2018. By utilizing the same accounting standards in force in First Quarter 2017 these data are provided in order to allow comparability with 2017 data.
2 The comparative data of 1H 2017 have been restated as a consequence of the completion in Second Half 2017 of the activities to identify the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the Sixtema S.p.A., which was fully consolidated starting from 1 April 2017
3 It is noted that with the objective of providing a basis for a meaningful comparison, the variations of the economic results, except where otherwise indicated, refer to 1H 2018 data that were prepared without the application of the accounting principles IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 ("IFRS 2017"), compared to the data for 1H 2017, also prepared without the application of these principles.

EBITDA for the segment amounted to €11,183 thousand in First Half 2018 (+ 11.4% compared to 2017). Organic growth amounted to 6.5% while the aforementioned perimeter change accounted for an increase of 4.9%. The EBITDA margin of 24.7% is slightly down compared to First Half 2017. The decrease is attributable to the consolidation of Sixtema which has lower margins relative to other companies in the segment.

In the Credit Information & Management segment revenues amounted to €37,170 thousand. Compared to First Half 2017 there was a slight increase of 1.0%, consisting of organic growth of 1.1% and a decrease of -0.2% for effect of the deconsolidation from June 2018 of Creditreform Assicom Ticino SA.
EBITDA decreased slightly (-2.2%) compared to the same period of the previous year. The EBITDA margin is equal to 21.0% compared to 21.7% in First Half 2017.
These results partly reflect the process of integration of the two companies Assicom and Ribes not yet fully completed, which resulted in Innolva SpA.

Net Financial Indebtedness («NFI») at 30 June 2018 equaled €96.3 million, a reduction of 7.9% versus the YE 2017 figure of €104.6 million. The decline was principally caused by the strong cash generation recorded during the period. Net Free Cash Flow generated in the six month period equaled €22.7 million, that reflects €29.9 million of cash from operations and €7.1 million absorbed by investments in fixed assets (property, plant and machinery) and intangible assets.
NFI at 30 June 2018 includes €66.4 million of debt associated with acqusitions. Of this, €53.1 million related to Put/Call options on the outstanding minority shares, €3.7 million of Earn Out and €9.5 million of vendor loans (i.e. the financial impact of delayed payments).
