Overview of the F.I.L.A. Group
The F.I.L.A. Group operates in the creativity tools market, producing colouring, design, modelling, writing and painting objects, such as pencils, crayons, modelling clay, chalk, oil colours, acrylics, watercolours, paints and paper for the fine arts, school and leisure.
The F.I.L.A. Group at March 31, 2020 operates through 21 production facilities and 35 subsidiaries across the globe and employs approx. 10,000, becoming a pinnacle for creative solutions in many countries with brands such as GIOTTO, DAS, LYRA, Canson, Maimeri, Daler-Rowney Lukas, Ticonderoga, Pacon, Strathmore and Princeton.
Founded in Florence in 1920 by two noble Tuscan families, della Gherardesca and Marchesi Antinori, F.I.L.A. S.p.A. (hereafter also the "Company") has achieved strong international growth in the past 20 years, supported by a series of strategic acquisitions. Over the years, the Company acquired: (i) the Italian firm Adica Pongo in 1994, a leading producer of modelling clay for children; (ii) the Spanish firm Spanish Fila Hispania S.L. (formerly Papeleria Mediterranea S.L.) in 1997, the Group's former exclusive distributor in Spain; (iii) the French firm Omyacolor S.A. in 2000, a leading manufacturer of modelling putties and clays; (iv) the U.S. Dixon Ticonderoga Group in 2005, a leading producer and distributor of pencils in North America, with subsidiaries operating on the Canadian, Mexican, Chinese and European markets; (v) the German LYRA Group in 2008, which allowed the Group to enter the German, Scandinavian and Eastern Asian markets; (vi) the business unit operated by Lapiceria Mexicana in 2010, one of the main local competitors in the budget coloured and graphite pencils market; and (vii) the business unit operated by Maimeri S.p.A. in 2014, a manufacturer and distributor of paints and accessories for arts and crafts. In addition to these operations, on the conclusion of an initiative which began with the acquisition of a minority stake in 2011, control was acquired in 2015 of the Indian company DOMS Industries Pvt Ltd. (viii). In 2016, the F.I.L.A. Group focused upon development through strategic Art&Craft sector acquisitions, seeking to become the leading market player. On February 3, 2016, F.I.L.A. S.p.A. acquired control of the Daler-Rowney Lukas Group, an illustrious brand producing and distributing materials and accessories on the arts and crafts market since 1783, with a direct presence in the United Kingdom, the Dominican Republic, Germany and the USA (ix). In September 2016, the F.I.L.A. Group acquired the entire share capital of St. Cuthberts Holding Limited and the operating company St. Cuthberts Mill Limited, a highly-renowned English paper mill, founded in 1907, located in the south-west of England and involved in the production of high-quality artist's papers (x). In October 2016, F.I.L.A. S.p.A. acquired the Canson Group, founded in 1557 by the Montgolfier family, with headquarters in Annonay in France, production facilities in France and conversion and distribution centres in Italy, France, China, Australia and Brazil. Canson products are available in over 120 countries and the brand is the most respected globally involved in the production and distribution of high added value paper for the fine arts, design, leisure and schools, but also for artists' editions and technical and digital drawing materials (xi).

In June 2018, F.I.L.A. S.p.A., through its US subsidiary Dixon Ticonderoga Co. (U.S.A.), consolidated its role as a leading player on the US market with the acquisition of the US Group Pacon, which through brands such as Pacon, Riverside, Strathmore and Princeton, is a leader in the US schools and arts and crafts sector.

Key events in the period
On March 2, 2020, F.I.L.A.- Arches S.A.S., a French company wholly-owned by F.I.L.A. S.p.A., completed the purchase from the Ahlstrom-Munksjö Group of the fine art business unit of the company specialised in fine art operating through the ARCHES® brand.
For over 500 years, the ARCHES® brand has been one of the best-known global brands in the production and distribution of premium fine art paper. The company creates its products utilising a particular "cylinder mould" technique which ensures the delivery of a highly crafted product and an inimitable natural appearance. Each production cycle is subject to numerous technical controls, which have always guaranteed the undisputed quality of the paper and its excellent brand reputation. The total price, on a debt-freecash-free basis, paid by F.I.L.A. - Arches S.A.S. for the business unit was Euro 43.6 million. The acquisition was funded through amending the current medium/long-term loan contract, through the granting of new lines for Euro 15 million and the partial use of the RCF line for Euro 25 million, through its conversion into a medium/long-term line.
As noted, since January 2020, on the Chinese market - and gradually from March 2020 across the rest of the world - the operating environment has been dominated by the spread of COVID-19 ("Coronavirus") and the resulting restrictive containment measures implemented by the public authorities of the countries affected. The current health emergency, in addition to the enormous social impacts, is having direct and indirect repercussions on the general economy and on the propensity to consume and invest, resulting in a generally uncertain environment. The F.I.L.A. Group is monitoring the developing situation in order to minimise its social and workplace health and safety impacts, in addition to the operating, equity and financial situation, by drawing up and rolling out flexible and timely action plans. In particular, from the beginning the F.I.L.A. Group has worked tirelessly to ensure maximum health and safety levels for its employees, customers and suppliers. The Group promptly introduced a series of protective measures for personnel and activated its Crisis Response Protocol, developing a specific crisis response plan and immediately rolled out a series of measures at all levels of the organisation - both at headquarters and overseas - at the operational sites and at the production plant. In this regard, the Coronavirus related lockdown resulted in the closure of the Yixing facility from February 21 and that of Kunshan from February 28, the Indian facilities from March 22 until May 3 (some divisions have not yet re-opened), the Italian F.I.L.A. S.p.A. facilities from March 23 to April 10 and that of Industria Maimeri from March 16 to April 30, the Dominican Republic facilities from March 23 to April 3 and those in Mexico from April 6 to April 17. At the date of this report, the Group's plants are operational, in accordance with the regulations for each country, although not at fully capacity in order to protect worker safety. Customer deliveries are considered essential, and as such have continued uninterrupted (although limited) from open businesses.

Interim Financial Report
March 31, 2020
Each subsidiary has activated all the shock absorbers that can be used to deal with the decline in business. The impact on the business has been a decrease in sales on the Chinese market in February and part of March, while the decrease in sales in the rest of the world has had a gradual impact only from the second half of March, with the exception of customers selling online and Large-Scale Retail and Organized Distribution.
It is highlighted that Group revenue in April, May and June does not correspond, especially for "school products", to the sell-out by our customers to end consumers, but in particular to the supply of the distribution chain ahead of sales for the reopening of schools. Based on current forecasts for the end of the emergency, the impacts on business could be partially offset by a recovery in the months leading up to the reopening of schools.
With regard to potential financial stress scenarios, management has monitored and continues to monitor both the Group's current and future liquidity. In April, the first significant impacts on collection activities directly related to the worldwide spread of the Coronavirus became apparent. The Group is therefore implementing a strict customer selection policy to limit future financial difficulties. At that date, the available liquidity appears adequate to cover current and future operating needs. The medium/long-term debt of a nominal Euro 452.5 million is based on a bullet repayment plan (Euro
50.9 million in 2023 and Euro 253.8 million in 2024), with that subject to interest settled through increasing instalments until maturity in 2023; the 2020 instalment amounts to Euro 19.4 million. As at the reporting date, the Group has developed a sensitivity analysis of the potential economic and financial impacts of the current crisis and has drafted a series of actions to limit these impacts.

The principal changes compared to Q1 2019 are illustrated below.
"Revenue from Sales and Services" of Euro 145,820 thousand increased by Euro 2,009 thousand on Q1 2019 (+1.4%). Net of the positive currency effect of Euro 799 thousand (principally concerning the US Dollar) and the negative M&A effect of Euro 1,337 thousand (concerning for Euro 775 thousand the acquisition in March 2020 of the new Arches business and for Euro 2,112 thousand the effect from the sale of the "Superior" brand business unit in October 2019), organic growth was Euro 2,547 thousand (+1.8%).
At geographic area level, this organic growth was seen in North America (+Euro 6,712 thousand, +11.2%), while the other geographic areas reported a revenue contraction: in Europe of Euro 1,690 thousand (-3.5%), in Asia of Euro 1,329 thousand (-6.4%) and in Central-South America Euro 1,146 thousand (-9.3%).
12
Interim Financial Report
March 31, 2020
In order to better illustrate F.I.L.A. Group developments, reference should be made to the table below highlighting revenue compared with the previous period by "Strategic Segments" in which the Group operates (the school and office strategic business segment, the arts and crafts strategic business segment and, to a residual extent, industrial products):
Other income of Euro 3,132 thousand increased by Euro 1,466 thousand, mainly due to higher exchange gains on commercial transactions.
"Operating costs" in Q1 2020 of Euro 132,153 thousand show an increase of Euro 5,094 thousand compared to Q1 2019. This is due to the growth in revenue and to the negative exchange rate effect (principally the US Dollar), to the partial production and sales inefficiencies resulting from COVID-19 effects, to higher personnel costs in India and the USA, and to increased negative currency market movements (Russia, Brazil and Chile).
"EBITDA" amounted to Euro 16,799 thousand, down Euro 1,619 thousand on the same period of the previous year (-8.7%).
Amortisation, depreciation and impairment losses rose by Euro 1,022 thousand, principally due to higher amortisation and depreciation resulting from investments and the increase from accruals to cover the greater doubtful debt risk as a result of Covid-19.
"Net Financial Expense" increased by Euro 2,494 thousand, mainly due to greater negative currency effects on financial transactions.
Adjusted income taxes totalled Euro 1,492 thousand.
Net of the profit attributable to non-controlling interests, the F.I.L.A. Group adjusted result in Q1 2020 was a loss of Euro 240 thousand, compared to a profit of Euro 3,591 thousand in the previous year.
13
Interim Financial Report
March 31, 2020
Business seasonality
The group's operations are affected by the business' seasonal nature, as reflected in the consolidated results.
The F.I.L.A. Group primarily operates in the school and office strategic business segment and the arts and crafts strategic business segment. Historically, the school and office strategic business segment has reported greater sales in the second and third quarters of the year than in the first and fourth quarters of the year. This is mainly due to the fact that in the Group's main markets (i.e., North America, Mexico, India and Europe), schools reopen in the period from June to September. By contrast, the arts and crafts strategic business segment reports greater sales to some extent in the first, but especially in the fourth quarter, than in the second and third quarters, partially offsetting the seasonal nature of the school and office strategic business segment.
The quarterly breakdown of profit or loss shows the concentration of sales in the second and third quarters in conjunction with the "schools' campaign". Specifically, significant sales are made through the traditional "school suppliers" channel in June and through the "retailers' channel in August.
Seasonality may become more significant when it is viewed in relation to working capital. In fact, in the school and office strategic business segment the Issuer has historically invested large quantities of financial resources to meet the enormous demand for products from July to September, while only receiving payments in November.
The key highlights for Q1 2020 and 2019 are reported below.

Net funding sources | (921,456) | (855,501) | (65,955) |
The F.I.L.A. Group's "Net invested capital" of Euro 921,456 thousand at March 31, 2020 was composed of Net Fixed Assets of Euro 658,319 thousand (up by Euro 38,006 thousand on December 31, 2019), "Net Working Capital" of Euro 327,629 thousand (up by Euro 32,749 thousand on December 31, 2019) and "Other non-current assets/liabilities" of Euro 17,793 thousand (up by Euro 554 thousand on December 31, 2019), net of "Provisions" of Euro 82,285 thousand (Euro 78,039 thousand at December 31, 2019).
"Intangible Assets" increased Euro 42,585 thousand compared to December 31, 2019, due mainly to M&A effects, which contributed to an increase in "Concessions, Licenses, Trademarks and Similar Rights" for Euro 12,045 thousand, in "Other Intangible Assets" for Euro 10,226 thousand, in addition to "Goodwill" of Euro 21,273 thousand, partially offset by amortisation and depreciation during the period, mainly recorded by F.I.L.A. S.p.A. following progress on the SAP project.
"Property, plant and equipment" decreased Euro 4,407 thousand on December 31, 2019. This decrease is mainly due to amortisation and depreciation for Euro 6,901 thousand, and is partially offset by investments and the M&A effect.
Net investments in the period amounted to Euro 3,071 thousand and were principally undertaken by DOMS Industries Pvt Ltd (India) and Dixon Ticonderoga Company (U.S.A.) to extend and develop local production and logistical sites. The movement also includes greater Fixed Assets related to M&A's for Euro 3,190 thousand.
15
Interim Financial Report
March 31, 2020
The decrease in "Financial assets" compared to December 31, 2019 was Euro 171 thousand and mainly concerned financial receivables.
The increase in "Net Working Capital" of Euro 32,749 thousand relates to the following:
"Inventories" - increasing by Euro 18,256 thousand, mainly due to the net increase in stock at the F.I.L.A. Group for approx. Euro 15,022 thousand, and chiefly deriving from business seasonality, which resulted in higher stock ahead of the schools campaign, as well as M&A effects for Euro 3,234 thousand. The increase especially involved North America, France and Mexico;
"Trade Receivables and Other Receivables" - up Euro 11,800 thousand, mainly due to the seasonality of the F.I.L.A. Group's business and the consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic, which were particularly prevalent in North America and Italy;
"Trade and Other Payables" - decreasing Euro 2,712 thousand, mainly due to payment of tax payables amplified by positive currency exchange effects for approx. Euro 4,571 thousand.
The increase in "Provisions" on December 31, 2019 of Euro 4,246 thousand principally concerns the:
Increase in "Deferred tax liabilities" of Euro 7,300 thousand, principally due to the tax effect concerning "Intangible Assets", recognised during the PPA relating to the M&A transaction;
Decrease in "Provisions for Risks and Charges" of Euro 1,028 thousand, mainly due to the use of restructuring provisions and other provisions;
Reduction in "Employee benefits" of Euro 2,026 thousand, mainly due to the actuarial gains recorded by the company Daler Rowney Ltd (United Kingdom).
The Equity attributable to owners of the companies of the F.I.L.A. Group, amounting to Euro 336,864 thousand, decreased on December 31, 2019 by Euro 20,488 thousand. Further to the net loss of Euro 5,938 thousand (of which Euro 115 thousand concerning non-controlling interests), the residual movement mainly concerned the decrease in the currency reserve of Euro 8,313 thousand and the negative movement in the IRS fair value hedge for Euro 8,966 thousand. This was partially mitigated by an increase in the "Actuarial/Gains Losses" reserve of Euro 1,919 thousand.
The F.I.L.A. Group "Net Financial Position" at March 31, 2020 was a net debt of Euro 584,592 thousand, increasing Euro 86,442 thousand on December 31, 2019. For greater details, reference should be made to the "Financial Overview" paragraph.

The net cash flow absorbed in Q1 2020 from "Operating Activities" of Euro 31,562 thousand (absorption of operating cash in Q1 2019 of Euro 25,834 thousand) concerns:
Generation of Euro 10,124 thousand (Euro 13,875 thousand in Q1 2019) from "EBIT", based on the difference of the "Value" and the "Costs of Cash Generation" and the remaining ordinary income components, excluding financial management;
Outflows of Euro 41,686 thousand (Euro 39,708 thousand in Q1 2019) attributable to "working capital movements", primarily related to the increases in "Inventories" and "Trade Receivables and Other Receivables", partially offset by the decrease in "Trade Payables and Other Payables".
"Investing activities" absorbed liquidity of Euro 3,580 thousand (Euro 3,684 thousand in Q1 2019), mainly due to the use of cash for Euro 3,661 thousand (Euro 3,704 thousand in Q1 2019) for tangible and intangible asset investment, particularly regarding DOMS Industries Pvt Ltd (India) and Dixon Ticonderoga Company (U.S.A.).
Cash flow from "Financing Activities" absorbed liquidity of Euro 5,717 thousand (Euro 6,111 thousand at March 31, 2019), mainly due to interest paid on loans and credit lines granted to Group companies

Interim Financial Report
March 31, 2020
Excluding the currency effect from the translation of the net financial positions in currencies other than the Euro (positive Euro 3,374 thousand), the adjustment to Mark-to-Market hedges of a negative Euro 9,211 thousand and the movement in the net debt due to the application of IFRS 16, equal to a positive Euro 2,425 thousand, and the negative movement generated by corporate transactions of Euro 43,600 thousand, due to the acquisition of the new business unit, the change in the Group's net financial position is therefore a negative Euro 86,442 thousand (debt of Euro 125,507 thousand at March 31, 2019).
Changes in net cash and cash equivalents are detailed below.

Segment reporting
In terms of segment reporting, the F.I.L.A. Group has adopted IFRS 8, mandatory on January 1, 2009.
IFRS 8 requires an entity to base segment reporting on internal reporting, which is regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker to allocate resources to the various segments and assess performance.
Geographical segments are the primary basis of analysis and of decision-making by the F.I.L.A. Group's management, therefore fully in line with the internal reporting prepared for these purposes.
In particular, the Company's business is divided into five business segments, each of which is composed of various geographical areas, i.e. (i) Europe, (ii) North America (USA and Canada), (iii) Central and South America, (iv) Asia and (v) the Rest of the World, which includes South Africa and Australia. Each of the five business segments designs, markets, purchases, manufactures and sells products under known consumer brands in demand amongst end users and used in schools, homes and workplaces. Product designs are adapted to end users' preferences in each geographical region.
The group's products are similar in terms of quality and production, target market, margins, sales network and customers, even with reference to the different brands which the group markets. Accordingly, there is no diversification by segments in consideration of the substantial uniformity of the risks and benefits relating to the products produced by the F.I.L.A. Group.
The accounting policies applied to segment reporting are in line with those used for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
Business Segment Reporting of the F.I.L.A. Group aggregates companies by region on the basis of the "entity location".
For disclosure upon the association between the geographical segments and F.I.L.A. group companies, reference should be made to the attachments to the report in the "List of companies included in the consolidation scope and other equity investments" paragraph.
The segment reporting required in accordance with IFRS 8 is presented below.
