Consolidated EBIT was 108.5 million euro, up 33.6% (81.2 million euro at 30 June 2022). The EBIT margin was 9.1% (7.5% at 30 June 2022).

Outlook

Although it is still difficult to provide guidance given the difficulties caused by geopolitical tensions, the Immsi Group will continue to work to meet its commitments and achieve its profit and productivity targets, through careful and efficient management of its business and financial structure.

In the industrial sector, despite the complex macro-economic situation, thanks to its portfolio of iconic brands Piaggio confirms that it will continue to pursue profit margin and productivity goals in the management of its production, logistic and procurement costs and in the management of all its international markets, in line with the first half of the year. The productivity improvements will offset the temporary slowdown in the Asian region, which has maintained a growth rate of 23% in the last five years.

The Indian, European and US markets remain positive despite the increase in interest rates in the last 12 months.

In light of this, Piaggio confirms the investments planned in new products in the two-wheeler sector and in commercial vehicles, and the consolidation of its commitment to ESG issues.

In the naval sector (Intermarine S.p.A.), production will move ahead on existing orders over the coming months. Management will also continue to take all measures to contain costs and all necessary action to acquire new contracts in order to expand the order book and optimise, and where necessary raise, production capacity for the coming years.

In the real estate and holding sector, the Is Molas subsidiary will continue marketing and rental activities on its residences as well as activities to increase Resort clients for its newly designed hospitality and golf facilities and the Is Molas Beach Club.

As of today, Fabrizio Quarta does not own any Immsi S.p.A. shares.

The curriculum vitae of the new director has been posted on the company website at www.immsi.itpage governance.

The manager in charge of preparing the company accounts and documents, Stefano Tenucci, certifies, pursuant to paragraph 2 of art. 154-bis of the Consolidated Law on Financial Intermediation, that the accounting disclosures in this statement correspond to the accounting documents, ledgers and entries.

This press release may contain forward-looking statements relating to future events and Immsi Group business and financial results. By their nature, these statements are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties since they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur or exist in the future. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in such statements as a result of a variety of factors.

This press release contains a number of indicators that, though not yet contemplated by the IFRS ("Non-GAAP Measures"), are based on financial measures envisaged by the IFRS. These indicators - presented in order to assist assessment of the Group's business performance - should not be considered as alternatives to those envisaged by the IFRS and are consistent with those in the Immsi Group 2022 Annual Report and quarterly and half-year reports. Furthermore, since determination of such indicators is not specifically regulated by the IFRS, the methods used may not coincide with those adopted by other companies/groups, and consequently the indicators in question may not be comparable. Specifically, the following alternative performance indicators are used:

  • EBITDA: earnings before amortisation and impairment losses on property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, as reflected in the income statement;
  • Net financial debt: this reflects financial liabilities (current and non-current) including trade payables and other non- current liabilities that include a material implicit (or explicit) debt component, less cash and cash equivalents, and other current financial receivables (ESMA Indications 2022 / 32-382-1138). Net financial debt as determined by the Immsi Group, however, does not include derivatives designated or not as hedges, fair value adjustments of the related hedged items and related accruals, fair value adjustments to financial liabilities, payables and interest accrued on bank loans, and interest on amounts due to third-party shareholders. The schedules in the Half-Year Report at 30 June 2023 include a table illustrating the composition of net financial debt.

In drawing up the Report on Operations as at and for the six months to 30 June 2023, the Immsi Group applied the same accounting policies as those used to draw up the Report on Operations and Financial Statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2022.

Immsi S.p.A. said that the Report on Operations as at and for the six months to 30 June 2023 will be available to the public at the company registered office, on the website of Borsa Italiana S.p.A., www.borsaitaliana.it,in the "eMarket STORAGE" authorised storage mechanism at www.emarketstorage.comand on the issuer's website www.immsi.it(section "Investors/Financial Reports/2023") as required by law.

The Immsi Group reclassified consolidated income statement, reclassified consolidated statement of financial position and consolidated statement of cash flows are set out below. In compliance with the Instructions to the Regulation for Markets organised and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A. section IA.2.6, the reclassified schedules are not subject to auditing by the independent auditors.
