UPDATE ON COVID-19 EPIDEMICS

With reference to the COVID-19 epidemics currently observed in Italy, Interpump has set up a permanent committee for the management of the emergency with representatives from the most significant subsidiaries, which have diligently adopted all provisions and instructions from the Authorities aimed at reducing the possibility of contagion. At the publishing of this press release, a positive case has been reported in two of the Group's plants, where activity has been suspended for the prescribed further sanitization and contact tracing procedures.

Keeping health protection as an absolute priority, Interpump will operate to keep the production cycle operational wherever and whenever possible.

In China, the six locations of the Group were authorized to resume operations and are working hard to return to normality.

ORDINARY AND EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING AND DIVIDEND PROPOSAL

APPROVAL OF THE FY2019 SEPARATE ACCOUNTS

The Board of Directors has resolved to convene an Ordinary and Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting to approve the 2019 separate financial statements in single call on 30 April 2020 at the offices of Interpump Group in Sant'Ilario d'Enza.

DIVIDEND

The Board of Directors has resolved to submit a proposal to shareholders to approve the distribution of a dividend of 25 euro cents (FY2018: 22 euro cents). If approved, the dividend will be paid on May 20 and the share will go ex-dividend on May 18 (record date May 19).

AUTHORIZATION FOR TREASURY SHARES PURCHASE AND DISPOSAL

The Shareholders' Meeting convened in ordinary session will be called to adopt a resolution regarding authorization for the purchase and disposal of treasury shares. It will be proposed to grant an authorization valid until October 2021. A short description follows for convenience; full details will be included in the Directors' Report to the Shareholders' Meeting, which will be published in accordance with the law.

The Company currently owns 2.187.506 treasury shares, or 2.0091% of total share capital. The purchase(s) for which authorization is sought shall be made on a regulated market or through a public tender/exchange offer in accordance to the law, for a maximum of 7,500,000 ordinary shares, at a price between €0.52 and €40.00.

The purchase and disposal for which authorization is sought shall be made for the purpose of servicing the existing and future incentive plans adopted by the Company, or within the framework of acquisitions and/or commercial agreements with strategic partners in line with the Company's development strategy.

APPOINTMENT OF MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND THE BOARD OF STATUTORY AUDITORS

The terms of office of the Board of Directors and the Board of Statutory Auditors come to an end on the approval of the financial statements at 31 December 2019. Shareholders are therefore called to an Ordinary General Meeting to elect new members of these bodies.

Lists of candidates must be lodged by 5 April 2020 by shareholders who, at the date on which the lists are lodged, are the holders, on their own or together with others, of shares with total voting rights representing at least 1% of the subscribed and paid-in share capital entitled to vote at Ordinary General Shareholders' Meetings. Requisites for the lists will be stated in the notice calling the Ordinary General Shareholders' Meeting in accordance with the requirements of the Company's Bylaws. Specifically for the election of members of the Board of Statutory Auditors, if by 5 April 2020 only one list has been lodged the Company will promptly give notice of this and shareholders will be able to lodge lists of candidates for the position of statutory auditor until

3

8 April 2020. In this case the minimum shareholding required to lodge lists will be 0.5% of the subscribed and paid-in share capital entitled to vote at Ordinary General Shareholders' Meetings.

AUTHORIZATION TO THE BOARD TO INCREASE CAPITAL PURSUANT TO ARTICLES 2443 AND 2441 PAR.4 OF THE ITALIAN CIVIL CODE

In the past several years, the Interpump Group has pursued a significant strengthening process in the sectors where it operates, also achieved through acquisitions, with the purpose of extending the product range and maintain a high competitivity level. In order to support the above-mentioned strengthening and expansion process, it is important for the Company to be able, even in the short-term future, to gather in a quick and flexible way the financial resources needed to promptlygrasp opportunities found on the market.

A Shareholders' Meeting resolution is needed because the previous authorization with the same content, granted to the Board by the Extraordinary Meeting of 30 April 2014 pursuant to Article 2443 of the Civil Code, expired on 29 April 2019; therefore, the power previously granted to the Board of Director cannot be exercised anymore.
