Notes on Alternative Performance Measures
Pursuant to the ESMA guidelines on alternative performance measures ("APMs") (ESMA/2015/1415), endorsed by CONSOB (see CONSOB Communication No. 0092543 dated 3 December 2015), it should be noted that the reclassified statements included in this Directors' Report on Operations show a number of differences from the official statements shown in the accounting tables set out in the following pages and in the notes with regard to the terminology and the level of detail.
Specifically, the reclassified consolidated Income Statement makes use of the following terms:
• EBITDA, which is equivalent to "Total revenues" net of total operating costs in the official consolidated Income Statement;
• EBIT, which is equivalent to "Total revenues" net of total operating costs, depreciation, amortisation and impairment in the official consolidated Income Statement.
The reclassified consolidated Balance Sheet was prepared based on the items recognised as assets or liabilities in the official consolidated Balance Sheet and makes use of the following terms: • FIXED ASSETS, given by the sum of tangible and intangible assets, goodwill, deferred tax assets/liabilities and other non-current assets;
•NET WORKING CAPITAL, given by the sum of inventories, trade receivables/payables, current provisions, tax receivables/payables and other assets/liabilities and current receivables/payables; • CAPITAL EMPLOYED, given by the algebraic sum of fixed assets, net working capital and postemployment benefits and other non-current liabilities.
These APMs, in line with the data presented in the consolidated Income Statement and Balance Sheet in accordance with the recommendations outlined above, were deemed to be significant as they represent parameters that succinctly and clearly depict the Company's financial position and economic performance, also by providing comparative data. The APMs adopted are consistent with those used in the previous year.

Directors' Report on operations for H1 2024
Dear Shareholders,
On 26 June 2024, a contract was signed for the acquisition of 100% of the share capital of Imille Srl, its foreign subsidiaries Imille Spain SL, Imille Start Spa (Chile), and Imille Brasil Agencia LTDA, and the company Uasabi Srl (hereinafter referred to as "I MILLE Group"). TXT has consolidated the results within its Digital Advisory division starting from 26 June 2024.
I MILLE Srl was founded in Milan in 2004 as a marketing agency and over the years it has witnessed continuous business development and constant evolution of the offer that has led to the consolidation of an important consumer portfolio, consisting primarily of large international companies with which the I MILLE Group has established long-term relationships that have promoted the internationalisation of the I MILLE offer with the opening, starting from 2018, of three foreign offices, in Spain, Brazil and Chile, and has helped the I MILLE Group to be recognised as a Global Creative Consultancy and one of the leading independent companies in the Italian communication and design landscape, with over 60 national and international awards recognised over the last ten years.
To date, the MarTech offer of the I MILLE Group covers a wide range of services, from the Creative Agency to the Product Marketing and Design Studio to the Media Agency, with vertical offers on Enterprise segments provided by I MILLE and offers dedicated to the new generations provided by Uasabi.
In terms of market positioning, the I MILLE Group boasts a broad consumer portfolio consisting mainly of large enterprises diversified across multiple sectors, with which the Group has longestablished relationships. The main customers include Angelini Pharma, Barilla, Boehringer, Bolton Group, Casio, Enel, ITAS Mutua, Luxottica, Maire Tecnimont, MSC Crociere, Gruppo Montenegro, Pernod Ricard, and Yakult.
The main consolidated operating and financial results in the first six months of 2024 were as follows:
• Revenues amounted to € 138.2 million, up 28.8% from € 107.3 million in the first six months of 2023.

Revenues from services amounted to € 128.6 million, up 26.7% compared to the first six months of 2023.
The Software Engineering Division recorded revenues of € 93.5 million, up by € 20.3 million compared to the first half of 2023.
The Smart Solutions Division recorded revenues of € 25.6 million, up 30.6% compared to the first six months of 2023.

- EBITDA amounted to € 17.5 million, an increase of +25.7% compared to the first six months of 2023 (€ 13.9 million), after significant investments in commercial expenditure and research and development expenses. The margin on revenues was 12.7% compared to 13.0% in the first six months of 2023.

- Financial income in the first half of 2024 had a negative net balance of € 1.3 million compared to the positive net balance of € 1.0 million in the same period of the previous year. In particular, this change is mainly due to the positive balance of instruments measured at fair value of € 0.5 million as at 30 June 2024 (negative for € 0.6 million in the same period of 2023), the negative effect of bank interest income for € 1.3 million and the negative effect of the result of associates for € 0.5 million.

With the "Recall of attention No. 5/21" of 29 April 2021, CONSOB declared its intention to bring its supervisory practices in relation to the net financial position into line with the aforementioned ESMA guidelines. In particular, CONSOB has declared that the prospectuses approved by it, starting from 5 May 2021, must comply with the aforementioned ESMA Guidelines.
Therefore, based on the new provisions, listed issuers will have to submit, in the explanatory notes to the annual and half-yearly financial statements, published starting from 5 May 2021, a new prospectus on the subject of debt to be drawn up according to the indications contained in paragraphs 175 and following of the aforementioned ESMA Guidelines.

In this regard, the ESMA Guidelines provide for the following main changes to the debt prospectus:
- we no longer speak of "Net financial position", but of "Total financial debt";
- in the context of non-current financial debt, trade payables and other non-current payables must also be included, i.e. payables that are not remunerated, but which have a significant implicit or explicit financing component (for example, payables to suppliers due after 12 months);
- in the context of current financial debt, the current portion of non-current financial debt must be indicated separately;
- "financial debt" includes remunerated debt (i.e., interest-bearing debt), which includes, among other things, financial liabilities relating to short- and/or long-term lease contracts. Information on lease payables must be provided separately.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD AND OUTLOOK
On 1 July 2024, the contract for the acquisition of 100% of the capital of Refine Srl ("Refine") was signed. TXT will consolidate its results within its Smart Solutions division
starting from 1 July 2024.
Refine was founded in Milan in 2016 thanks to a project initiated by the current selling partners and today it boasts proprietary technologies and specialised skills in the field of performance marketing, in the generation of qualified leads and in the collection and study of data in favour of a unique offering in support of the marketing strategies of its customers
Refine offers proprietary technological solutions based on enabling technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics designed to create the marketing strategy suited to the needs of large international enterprises. Refine covers a multiplicity of services, from Direct Marketing (direct email and sms marketing), Display & Video Advertising, to Vertical Lead Generation services focused on the creation of Vertical Content Portals, Automated Landing Pages aimed at increasing the effectiveness of marketing campaigns and guiding the customer in choosing the most suitable channel to contact users; Refine's main customers include the major domestic and international marketing agencies, with diversified end customers in a large number of sectors, united by the nature of large enterprises with a domestic and international presence. The main sectors range from automotive, telco, energy/utility, travel and retail.
In 2023, Refine's sales revenues amounted to € 16.7 million (+11.5% YoY), with EBITDA of approximately € 3.4 million (EBITDA margin of 20.1%). The growth forecast for the three-year period 2024-2026 is in double figures.
The basic consideration paid at closing for the purchase of 100% of Refine, net of the earn-outs and the NFP, which will be settled in cash, was agreed between the parties at € 21.8 million, of which € 12.1 million (55.4%) paid in cash and € 9.7 million (44.6%) through the payment of TXT e-solutions S.p.A. shares sold at the price agreed between the parties of € 23.00 per share.

Forecasts for the performance in the third quarter of 2024
With reference to the organic growth of the business, after a first half that saw sustained growth in all operating divisions, in the second half of the current year TXT's management expects further business development, with stabilisation of the revenue growth rates at double digit levels, driven by commercial and technological synergies, and an improvement in business margins linked to the growth in volumes and the increased efficiency of the general and administrative costs structure, as well as the historical trend in TXT's margins.
At market level, after a strong first half-year in all segments, further organic growth is expected, driven by the Public Sector (+34.9% in 1H-2024 compared to the first half of 2023) and Aerospace & Defence (+28.3% in 1H-2024 compared to the first half of 2023), thanks respectively to the growth of Digital Advisory activities on long-term public contracts already acquired and to the positive trend expected for the civil aviation and defence market, where the TXT Group is strategically positioned with its digital offering of Software Engineering and Smart Solutions. In the Telco & Gaming market, the volumes of the Software Engineering offer are continuing to grow also in the third quarter of the current year, with possible slowdowns in the growth rate of the top line due to the evolution of the sector in the domestic market, while in Fintech the constant growth in volumes continues in line with the market trend.
In relation to the 2024 M&A plan, following the investments already made in the opening of the MarTech offer, the TXT Group is committed to continuing with its acquisition plan aimed at integrating new technologies, digital specialised skills and excellence in markets that are already proprietary or adjacent to the current ones.
In the current global geopolitical context, which has worsened since 2022, mainly due to the Russian military aggression in Ukraine, the escalation of the trade war between China and the US and the more recent military conflict between Israel and Hamas, which have led to significant macroeconomic uncertainty and inflationary pressure followed by an immediate rise in interest rates, the TXT Board of Directors has currently identified risks that can be mitigated in the short term due to the minimal and non-strategic exposure of the TXT business in the areas involved in the conflicts and thanks to a sustainable financial exposure.

2. Basis of preparation of the consolidated financial statements
The Group's annual consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the IFRS international accounting standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and endorsed by the European Union as at the date of drafting of these financial statements, as well as with the measures issued in implementation of Article 9 of Italian Legislative Decree No. 38/2005 and with any other applicable provisions and CONSOB regulations on financial statements. This interim report was prepared, regarding both form and content, in accordance with the provisions contained in IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" and in accordance with International Accounting Standards ("IAS - IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards

Board and adopted by the EU, including all the interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee, previously called Standing Interpretations Committee ("SIC").
The half-yearly report as at 30 June 2024 consists of the consolidated financial statements, the reclassified consolidated financial statements whose form and content are consistent with the financial statements for the year 2023. The condensed consolidated half-yearly financial statements do not therefore include all the information required for the annual financial statements and should be read together with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023. They have been prepared based on accounting records as at 30 June 2024 and on a going concern basis. As for further information relating to the nature of the company's activities, business areas, operations and outlook, reference should be made to the Directors' Report on Operations.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements, as well as their content and changes in the individual items, are set out below and have not changed from those adopted in the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023, thereby ensuring the comparability of the data.
The publication and release of this document were approved by the Board of Directors' Meeting held on 10 September 2024.
3. Accounting standards and interpretations applied from 1 January 2024
During the period, the following amendments to IAS/IFRS were adopted, without effects for the Group:
-
IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements": a greater degree of detail was introduced in the classification of liabilities, focusing on covenants. Failure to comply with a covenant leads to the classification of the liability as current, even if the due date is more than 12 months, with the obligation to provide a detailed report on the associated risks.
-
IFRS 16 "Leases": an amendment relating to sale-leaseback transactions was introduced, which clarifies that the seller-lessee must determine the lease payments in such a way as not to recognise any gain or loss in relation to the right to use held;
-
IAS 7 "Statement of cash flows" and IFRS 7 "Financial instruments: supplementary information": the amendments require greater transparency and a clearer separation between purely trade payables and those that include a financial component, providing detailed information in the notes.

4. Financial risk management
With regard to business risks, the main financial risks identified and monitored by the Group are as follows:
- Currency risk
- Interest rate risk
- Credit risk
- Liquidity and investment risk
- Other risks (COVID-19, Military Conflict in Ukraine)
The financial risk management objectives and policies of the TXT e-solutions Group reflect those illustrated in the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2023, to which reference should be made.
5. Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated half-yearly financial statements and the relevant notes in conformity with IFRS requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosures relating to contingent assets and liabilities at the reporting date. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and any changes are immediately recognised in the income statement. Here below are the assumptions made about the future and other major sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
Revenues from contracts with customers
The Group has carried out the following assessments, which have a significant impact on the determination of the amount and timing of revenue recognition from contracts with customers:
Identification of the performance obligation in a joint sale
The Group provides maintenance and assistance services to customers, which are sold either separately or together with licenses for use, as well as professional services. The Group has determined that for the product types offered for which it is reasonable to expect that the customer requires a level of continuous involvement from the Group over a period of time, and which require a certain period of implementation by the customer, the maintenance and assistance service contract cannot be considered separately from the license contract, even if the latter exclusively envisages an up-front fee. The fact that the Group does not regularly grant the right to use its licences separately from the signing of a first maintenance contract, together with the consideration that maintenance services cannot reasonably be provided by other suppliers, are indicators that the customer does not tend to separately benefit from both products independently.

The Group, on the other hand, has established that professional services must be distinguished within the context of the contract and that a price must be independently allocable to them.
Determination of the method for estimating the value of the recognisable variable fee
In estimating any variable fee, the Group must use the expected value method or the most likely quantity method to estimate which method best determines the value of the fee to which it is entitled. Before including any value of the variable fee in the transaction price, the Group shall assess whether a portion of the variable fee is subject to recognisability limits. The Group has determined that, on the basis of its past experience, economic forecasts and current economic conditions, the variable fee is not subject to uncertainties that could limit its recognisability. Furthermore, the uncertainty to which the variable fee is exposed will be subsequently resolved within a short period of time.
Considerations on the significant financing component in a contract
The Group does not usually sell with formal or expected extension of payment terms exceeding one year, for which it believes that there are no significant financing components in the commercial transactions.
Determination of the time frame for project service satisfaction
The Group has determined that the input method is the best method for determining the progress of services provided for projects (for example, the development of technological solutions, consultancy, integration services, training) since there is a direct relationship between the Group's activities (for example, the hours worked and costs incurred) and the transfer of the service to the customer. The Group recognises revenues on a cost-to-cost basis (versus the total costs expected to be incurred to complete the service). Depending on the contractual clauses, orders can be managed on a Time&Material or Fixed Price basis. With the former type, revenues are recognised on the basis of the hours actually spent on the project, calculated and accepted by the customer. The agreement with the customer is essentially based on a number of hours to be invested in the project, which can be revised, including upwards, depending on the actual use of resources. Revenues for Fixed Price orders, for which a price is fixed in advance, except for subsequent adjustments, are instead determined by applying the completion percentage to the amount of the fee for the project. The calculation of the completion percentage, determined using the Cost to Cost method, i.e., the ratio between the costs incurred and the total expected costs, takes into account the hours spent by personnel involved in the project on the reference date and any other direct costs.
Impairment of non-financial assets
An impairment loss occurs when the carrying amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.

Fair value less costs to sell is measured based on data available from binding sale agreements between knowledgeable, willing parties for similar assets or observable market prices, less the costs of disposal. Value in use is calculated using a discounted cash flow model. Cash flow projections are based on the plan for the next five years and include neither restructuring operations for which the Group does not have a present obligation, nor significant future investments that will increase the return on the assets of the cash-generating unit subject to measurement. The recoverable amount significantly depends on the discount rate used in the discounted cash flow model, as well as on the expected future cash inflows and the growth rate used to extrapolate.
Taxes
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses can be utilised. Management is required to make significant estimates to determine the amount of tax assets that can be recognised based on the level of future taxable profits, when they will arise, and tax planning strategies.
Pension funds
The cost of defined-benefit pension plans and other post-employment medical benefits is determined using actuarial valuations. The actuarial valuation requires assumptions about discount rates, the expected rate of return on plan assets, future salary increases, mortality rates, and future benefit increases. Because of the long-term nature of these plans, the estimates are subject to a significant degree of uncertainty. All assumptions are reviewed annually. In determining the appropriate discount rate, the directors use the interest rate of corporate bonds with average terms corresponding to the estimated term of the defined-benefit obligation. The bonds are subject to further qualitative analysis and those that present a credit spread deemed excessive are removed from the population of bonds on which the discount rate is based, as they do not represent high-quality bonds. The mortality rate is based on mortality tables available for each country. Future salary and benefit increases are based on the expected inflation rates for each country.
Fair value measurement of contingent considerations for business combinations
Contingent considerations associated with business combinations are measured at the acquisition-date fair value within the scope of the business combination. Whenever the contingent consideration is a financial liability, its value is subsequently re-measured as at each reporting date.
Fair value is measured using discounted cash flows. Key assumptions take account of the probability of achieving each performance objective and the discount rate.

| TOTAL GOODWILL | 72,971,297 | 64,999,093 |
Goodwill arises from the acquisition of PACE GmbH ("PACE") in 2016, the two acquisitions in 2018 of Cheleo Srl and TXT Risk Solutions Srl, the acquisition of the Assioma Group in 2019, of TXT Working Capital Solutions Srl, Mac Solutions SA and HSPI S.p.A. in 2020 and of TeraTron GmbH, LBA Consulting, Novigo Consulting, Quence in 2021, of DM Management & Consulting, Ennova, Soluzioni Prodotti Sistemi, PGMD and Tlogos in 2022, of FastCode, Arcan and PACE Canada in 2023 and the Imille Group in the first half of 2024 and was determined, in its various components, as follows:
- PACE's goodwill of € 5,369 thousand derives from the acquisition price of € 9,097 thousand, net of the fair value of shareholders' equity on the acquisition date of € 1,352 thousand, the valuation of "Customer Relationship" intangible assets with a finite useful life of € 1,112 thousand, "Intellectual property of software" of € 1,350 thousand and deferred tax assets and liabilities of € 86 thousand. The purchase price was determined by including the fixed price agreed in the contract and earn-outs linked to changes in variables such as revenues and EBITDA and by applying the corresponding multiples, and the other variable figures linked to PACE's greater available liquidity on the acquisition date, against the threshold indicated in the agreement. Furthermore, for the purpose of drafting the Consolidated Financial Statements, the directors

had decided to classify the signing of the put/call option contract with PACE's minority shareholders as the acquisition of a present ownership interest in the residual 21% of PACE capital and consequently to designate the liabilities for exercising this option at fair value on the initial recognition date (obtained by means of maturity estimate based on forecast data and the updating of this estimate to take account of the time factor). This liability was extinguished in the 2020 financial year.
- In 2020, TXT Risk Solutions S.r.l. goodwill was impaired by € 1,296 thousand, which brought it to a value of € 116 thousand. The original goodwill of € 1,413 thousand derived from the acquisition price of € 1,599 thousand - net of the fair value of shareholders' equity on the acquisition date of negative € 21 thousand, the valuation of intangible assets with a finite useful life "Intellectual Property" of € 287 thousand and the deferred tax assets of € 80 thousand.
- TXT Assioma Srl's goodwill of € 6,855 thousand as at 31 December 2023 derives from the acquisition price of € 10,882 thousand, net of the fair value of shareholders' equity on the acquisition date of € 3,439 thousand, the valuation of "Customer Relationship" intangible assets with a finite useful life of € 822 thousand and deferred tax of € 229 thousand. On 1 January 2024, for the transfer of the TEST business unit to the TXT Quence group company, the amount of goodwill was restated at € 4,478 thousand.
- TXT Working Capital Solutions S.r.l.'s goodwill of € 2,724 thousand derives from the acquisition price (not considering the increase in share capital with premium) of € 2,682 thousand, net of the fair value of shareholders' equity on the acquisition date of a negative € 42 thousand. It should be noted that, with the measurement period having elapsed, the preliminary allocation of the values was confirmed definitively by the directors.
- TXT e-swiss SA's goodwill of € 1,892 thousand derives from the acquisition price of € 6,382 thousand, net of the fair value of shareholders' equity on the acquisition date of € 2,015 thousand, the valuation of "Customer Relationship" intangible assets with a finite useful life of € 3,432 thousand and deferred tax of € 958 thousand.
- HSPI S.p.A.'s goodwill of € 5,891 thousand derives from the acquisition price of € 12,064 thousand, net of the fair value of shareholders' equity on the acquisition date of € 4,592 thousand, and the valuation of "Customer Relationship" tangible assets with a finite useful life of € 2,193 thousand and deferred tax of € 612 thousand.
- TeraTron's goodwill of € 2,749 thousand derives from the acquisition price of € 10,214 thousand, net of the fair value of shareholders' equity on the acquisition date of € 5,468 thousand, and the valuation of "Customer Relationship" intangible assets with a finite useful life of € 2,769 thousand and deferred tax of € 773 thousand.
- LBA Consulting's goodwill of € 2,848 thousand derives from the acquisition price of € 4,622 thousand, net of the fair value of shareholders' equity on the acquisition date of € 837 thousand, the valuation of "Customer Relationship" intangible assets with a finite useful life of € 1,367 thousand, deferred tax of € 381 thousand and a provision for risks of € 49 thousand.
- The goodwill of TXT Novigo of € 11,210 thousand is broken down as follows:
- € 5,919 thousand deriving from the acquisition price of Novigo Consulting S.r.l. (now TXT Novigo) of € 9,208 thousand, net of the fair value of shareholders' equity

on the acquisition date of € 1,070 thousand, and the valuation of "Customer Relationship" intangible assets with a finite useful life of € 3,076 thousand and deferred tax of € 858 thousand;

Taking into account the economic trend observed and the foreseeable evolution of operations, described in the "Directors' Report on Operations for H1 2024" accompanying these financial statements, no impairment test was conducted as at 30 June 2024, since there was no indicator of impairment such as to highlight significant risks with regard to the possible existence of impairment for the reported goodwill.

Note that to calculate the present value of the liabilities related to the lease agreements within the scope of IFRS 16, in the absence of a readily available implicit rate, the present value of the liabilities was determined using the Group's marginal lending rate, taking into account the duration, amount funded and underlying asset for each type of contract. The Group has established that the differences between the rates to be applied for the different contract categories do not lead to significant differences in impact.

The "Provision for post-employment benefits and other employee provisions" item as at 30 June 2024 amounted to € 6,409,955, relating mainly to obligations to employees of the Italian companies of the Group.

Post-employment benefits for personnel of € 6,409,956 as at 30 June 2024 (€ 5,603,142 as at 31 December 2023), was measured as a defined benefit provision.
Below is the reconciliation of the provision for post-employment benefits based on statutory regulations with respect to the value recorded in the financial statements in accordance with the international accounting standard IAS 19:
| Jun-24 | Dec-23 | |
|---|---|---|
| Provision for post-employment benefits | 6,644,119 | 5,693,934 |
| Current cost | (274,615) | (445,769) |
| Financial charges | 82,082 | 165,685 |
| Actuarial differences | 49,162 | 333,024 |
| Actuarial differences following acquisitions | 0 | 0 |
| Retained earnings | (90,792) | (143,732) |
| Total | 6,409,955 | 5,603,142 |
To calculate the present value of post-employment benefits, the following assumptions regarding the future trends in the variables included in the algorithm have been used:
• The probability of death was estimated based on the census of the Italian population by age and gender taken in 2000 by ISTAT [Italy's National Institute for Statistics], reducing it by 25%.
• The probability of removal due to total and permanent disability of the employee, such as becoming disabled and leaving the company, was estimated based on disability tables currently used in the reinsurance sector, differentiated by age and gender.
• The retirement age of a generic worker was estimated assuming that the first retirement requirement for the purpose of obtaining the Mandatory General Insurance was satisfied and that the employees started paying into INPS [Italy's Social Security Institute] no later than 28 years of age. This measurement accounts for the changes to the retirement age introduced by the Monti reform in late 2011.
• As for the probability of termination of employment due to resignations and dismissals, as at the measurement date an annual 8% staff turnover rate was calculated.

• As for the probability of requests for advance payment of benefits in the reference companies, an annual 2.00% advance payment rate was estimated, with advance payments amounting to 70% of the post-employment benefits outstanding held with the company.
The estimated trend in salaries of an annual nominal all-inclusive 2.00% impacted the valuation of all companies except for TXT E-Solution, TXT E-TECH S.R.L. and TXT Assioma e FastCode spa..
The estimated inflation rate used for measurement purposes was 2.00% per year.
The discount rate used for the valuations was 3.6146% per year as at 30 June 2024 on bonds issued by European companies with AA rating for 10+ maturities. The average duration of the liability was calculated at 14.8 years.
The table below shows the potential impact on post-employment benefits of the increase/decrease of certain "key" variables used for the actuarial calculation, and the consequent absolute values of the liability in alternate scenarios compared to the base scenario (which resulted in a carrying amount of € 6,409,955):

10. Net financial debt
The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) published on 4 March 2021 the Guidelines on disclosure requirements pursuant to EU Regulation 2017/1129 ("Prospectus Regulation").
With the "Recall of attention no. 5/21" of 29 April 2021, CONSOB declared its intention to bring its supervisory practices in relation to the net financial position into line with the aforementioned ESMA guidelines. In particular, CONSOB has declared that the prospectuses approved by it, starting from 5 May 2021, must comply with the aforementioned ESMA Guidelines.
Therefore, based on the new forecasts, listed issuers will have to submit, in the explanatory notes to the annual and half-yearly financial statements, published starting from 5 May 2021, a new prospectus on the subject of debt to be drawn up according to the indications contained in paragraphs 175 and following of the aforementioned ESMA Guidelines.
In this regard, the ESMA Guidelines provide for the following main changes to the debt statement:
• we no longer speak of "Net financial position", but of "Total financial debt";
• in the context of non-current financial debt, trade payables and other non-current payables must also be included, i.e. payables that are not remunerated, but which have a significant implicit or explicit financing component (for example, payables to suppliers due after 12 months);
• in the context of current financial debt, the current portion of non-current financial debt must be indicated separately.
• "financial debt" includes remunerated debt (i.e., interest-bearing debt), which includes, among other things, financial liabilities relating to short- and/or long-term lease contracts. Information on lease payables must be provided separately.
For additional information on changes in the Group's Net Financial Position, see the "Directors' Report on Operations for H1 2024".
