Astaldi points out that:
- 2019 Information and the Prospective Information 2019-2023 both relate to Astaldi's going concern, as resulting from the implementation of the Creditor Composition Plan, which the SI capital increase is referred to. 2019 Information is compliant with IFRS 16 accounting policies;
- the 2019 Information is merely of a management-related nature and is not drawn from financial position or income statements approved by the Company's Board of Directors, which postponed the approval of all yearly and interim accounting documentation subsequent to 31 March 2018 to a time following the vote by Astaldi's creditors on the Plan, and, thus, is not the object of any certification by the Company's independent auditor. The 2019 Information does not represent - and is not intended to represent - Astaldi's financial, economic and asset position, nor a forecast of the Group's results for the period;
- the Prospective Information, also of a management-related nature, is provided merely as a forecast, and is drawn wholly from the Plan submitted to the Court of Rome, certified by Prof. Corrado Gatti pursuant to articles 161, subsection 3, and 186-bis of the Insolvency Law and approved by Astaldi's Board of Directors. The Prospective Information is thus based on the hypothesis of the occurrence of future events and the implementation of future actions by the Company and is also marked by subjective assessment and uncertainty of the effects - and the occurrence - of said events. Consequently, the Prospective Information does not represent - and is not intended to represent - the Company's consolidated future financial, economic and asset position upon the outcome of the Plan's performance, but only provides a general indication of the Company's possible development in relation to the Plan's performance as deemed feasible by the certifier and approved by the Company's Board of Directors.
The above tables show adjusted consolidated figures, which include the effects of the financial plan, and refer to Astaldi's going concern, thus taking into account all the assumptions made for the ongoing activities.
