RESULTS AS AT 30 JUNE 2021

101 MILLION CONSOLIDATED NET PROFIT (PRO FORMA)

1.1 BILLION OF CONSOLIDATED SHAREHOLDERS 'EQUITY

The Board of Directors of Tamburi Investment Partners S.p.A. ("TIP" - tip.mi), an independent and diversified industrial group listed on the Star segment of Borsa Italiana S.p.A., which met today in Milan, approved the consolidated half-year financial report at 30 June 2021.

The half year was excellent for the TIP group and for almost all of the investee companies. In fact, as it is well known, the entire industry, internationally, has resumed vigorously and in fact the economic performance of most of the companies is exceeding the 2019 results, a record year for almost all of them.

At consolidated level TIP closed the half year with a pro forma profit of 101.2 million, the best ever; Consolidated shareholders' equity as at 30 June 2021 was over 1.1 billion compared to 1.07 billion as at 31 December 2020, after dividend distributions for approximately 17 million and purchases of treasury shares for approximately 7.3 million.

The stock market prices of the TIP share and of all the listed subsidiaries are currently around the highest ever. As of 3 September, the increase of the TIP shares, compared to the end of 2020, was approximately 37%, in addition to the effect of distributed profits. At five years the total return of the TIP stock was 163.4%, with an annual average of 32.7 %. At ten years, the average annual total return was over 50%.

The pro forma economic result for the half year was strongly influenced both by the income realized following a partial divestment of Prysmian S.p.A. shares and by the portions of results of the associated companies.

In January, the subsidiary Clubtre S.r.l., through an Accelerated BookBuilding procedure, sold 10 million Prysmian shares and this transaction generated a very significant capital gain.

In April TIP acquired, from the minority shareholder, 33.8% of Clubtre, reaching 100% of the company. Almost at the same time Clubtre sold to that shareholder 1,208,253 Prysmian shares.

Following these transactions, Clubtre holds approximately 2.4 million Prysmian shares in its portfolio.

The following is the usual pro forma income statement, for the period 1 January - 30 June 2021, determined by considering the realized capital gains and losses and the write-downs on equity investments. As well known, in fact, we believe this system, in force until a few years ago, is much more significant in representing the reality of TIP's business. The pro forma data is then commented in the management report, while the explanatory notes provide information on the data determined on the basis of IFRS 9.

During the half year, a further 4.8 million dividends were received from investee companies.

Revenues from advisory activities in the period were approximately 3.4 million.

The cost of personnel, as always significantly influenced by the effect of the variable remuneration of executive directors, the only ones parameterized to the results for the period, also includes the economic effects of the assignment, in March, of the last options - no. 3,500,000 - under the stock option plan called "2014/2021 TIP Incentive

Plan", now exhausted. The increase in other operating costs was related to the charges incurred for the finalization of the operations of the period.

The ITACA EQUITY project has been operational since February with a budget of 600 million, of which around 100 from TIP, 2 million of which have already been paid. The ITACA project, promoted by TIP with three top-level partners in this specific segment, Sergio Iasi, Angelo Catapano and Massimo Lucchini, led to the birth of Itaca Equity Holding S.p.A. who will make investments in risk capital in companies with financial difficulties considered temporary and / or with the need for strategic and / or organizational turnaround. This structure will allow the approximately 40 family offices that have joined to analyze the concrete proposals and evaluate from time to time whether to invest in each individual project, according to the corporate scheme already tested with Asset Italia.

In March StarTIP S.r.l. acquired approximately 19% of DV Holding S.p.A., the parent company of the DoveVivo group, a European leader in the so-calledco-living for 11 million. In June, together with others, a bond loan was issued by DV Holding S.p.A. was underwritten for 7 million, of which 2.5 million by StarTIP.

In May, the stake in Bending Spoons S.p.A. was increased. with a further investment of 3.4 million.

The consolidated net financial position of the TIP Group as at 30 June 2021 - also taking into account the bond issued

  • but without considering non-current financial assets considered in terms of management liquidity usable in the short term - was negative for approximately 269 million, compared to approximately 336 million at December 31, 2020.

The results for the first half already communicated by the main listed subsidiaries, Amplifon S.p.A., Be S.p.A., Elica S.p.A., Interpump Group S.p.A., Moncler S.p.A. and Prysmian S.p.A. were very positive, even better than most market estimates, further confirming the excellence of these companies as well as the solid strategic, operational and financial foundations with which these subsidiaries are emerging from the emergency period. Also data from OVS S.p.A. were positive as they benefitted from the effects of the numerous new initiatives undertaken as well as from cost containment efforts and, on top, of some positive effects deriving from tax realignments. For Sesa S.p.A. the financial year ended on April 30, 2021, recording record results.

The activities of other equity investments, direct and indirect, also expressed positive data in the first half of 2021, continuing with the recovery already manifested in the last months of 2020. The first half of 2021 was still very negative for Alpitour S.p.A. and recovering for Eataly S.p.A., since both of them continued to suffer from the limits placed on tourism and catering activities around the world.

In 2021, the growth of the stock market value of TIP shares continued, in recent days exceeded 9 euro, the highest price ever, albeit always significantly below the internal medium-term intrinsic valuation estimates, currently over 12 euro per share.

Subsequent events to June, 30, 2021

In July TIP engaged to acquire a further 5% of Vianova S.p.A. The closing of the transaction should take place during the month of October.

In July 2021 TIP subscribed to the capital increase of OVS S.p.A. with a total investment of approximately 21.6 million, slightly increasing its shareholding.

In July, the capital increase of Clubitaly S.p.A. was signed for about 1 million. Clubitaly in turn subscribed its share of approximately 2 million in the capital increase of Eataly S.p.A.

In September, the respective decision-making bodies approved the merger plan by incorporation of TIPO and Betaclub into TIP, which is expected to be finalized by the end of the financial year.

The purchase of treasury shares, listed shares and the use of liquidity in bonds also continued.

In recent days, the TIP stock has reached a market capitalization that exceeded 1.7 billion. Capital gains also increased further compared to book values and the intrinsic medium-term value of the group, calculated with the usual criteria, exceed 2.2 billion.

Outlook

At the moment it is possible to hypothesize that the growth in turnover and margins of industrial companies continues briskly and therefore the economic performance of almost all the subsidiaries should remain good throughout 2021.

On this basis, it would seem reasonable to foresee the maintenance - and hopefully a further improvement, even in the absence of particularly significant divestments - of the excellent consolidated profitability already recorded in the first half year by the TIP group.

The pipeline of large new operations is not particularly large due to the persistence of the facilities granted or promised by the various governments to many companies, but the peculiarities of TIP's business model continue to give access to interesting deals, albeit often at similar valuation conditions to what is observed in the stock exchanges. On medium-sized transactions - and in particular in the segment of innovative and / or technological companies - the pipeline remains very interesting.

Treasury shares

At June 30, 2021, treasury shares in portfolio totalled 15,076,249, equal to 8.177% of the share capital. At September 9, 2021, treasury shares in portfolio totalled 15,205,972, equal to 8.247% of the share capital.

The Executive Officer for Financial Reporting Claudio Berretti, declares, in accordance with Article 54- bis, paragraph 2, of the Consolidated Finance Act, that the accounting information contained in this press release corresponds to the underlying accounting documents, records and accounting entries.
