- a company listed on Euronext Milan, Euronext STAR Milan segment - met today to approve, inter alia, the Consolidated Half-Year Financial Report as at 30 June 2025.

The macroeconomic climate, which is marked by severe uncertainties, has significantly influenced Biesse Group's (the "Group") sales since 2024 and continued to affect this half year's results.

Consolidated results achieved by the Group in the first half of 2025:

• Consolidated net revenues € 322.8 million (-18.4% compared to H1 2024);

• Adjusted EBITDA € 16 million, equal to 5% of consolidated net revenues (8.3% in H1 2024);

• Adjusted EBIT -€ 2.4 million, equal to -0.7% of consolidated net revenues (3.4% in H1 2024);

• EBIT -€ 6.7 million, equal to -2.1% of consolidated net revenues (2.6% in H1 2024);

• Net result of -€ 7.1 million, equal to -2.2% of consolidated net revenues (1.0% in H1 2024).

  Breakdown of revenues

  From the geographic perspective, the Group sales are distributed into the following geographic areas as at 30 June 2025:

• EMEA 61.1% (63.8% as at 30 June 2024);

• AMERICAS 23.6% (22.4% as at 30 June 2024);

Net Financial Position

At 30 June 2025, the Group's Net Financial Position excluding IFRS16 was a positive € 4.7 million (considering the effects of applying IFRS16, it was a negative € 25.5 million).

Compared to 31 December 2024, the Net Financial Position excluding IFRS16 decreased by € 20.8 million: the change is mainly influenced by the purchase of own shares, the distribution of dividends in the first half of 2025, the payment of the price adjustment debt related to the acquisition of the GMM group, non-recurring financial outlays arising from the payment of exit incentives and investments in tangible and intangible fixed assets, only partially offset by the results achieved in terms of operations.

Capital Situation

Group's Equity as at 30 June 2025: € 244.6 million.

Net Invested Capital as at 30 June 2025: € 270.1 million.

Net Operating Working Capital as at 30 June 2025: € 73.9 million.

Comment from Group CFO, Nicola Sautto

'The first half of the year remained strongly impacted by: i) continuing trade tensions caused by US-imposed tariffs, a situation that has fuelled global uncertainty with consequent repercussions on markets; ii) the continuation of the now well-known conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East; iii) government incentives related to industry 5.0 incentives that are struggling to take off due to its complexity, negatively affecting the entire manufacturing sector; and (iv) the continuing difficulties of access to credit by some of our customers, which have led to significant delays in purchases.

Revenues for the first half of 2025 showed an inevitable decrease compared to the same period last year, in line both with the above factors and the steady slowdown in order intake since 2023.

Despite the turbulent and complex context described above, the Biesse group is determined to continue the strategic transformation process, in particular:

• reinforcing all sales networks in the markets with the aim of putting the customer at the centre and increasing the level of service;

• investing in development and innovation to design advanced technological solutions, capable of responding to and anticipating customers' needs; and

• maintaining a significant focus on rationalising costs in order to maintain a balanced economic-financial situation.

Despite the economic performance in the first half of 2025, the Group's net financial position remains positive, showing no financial tensions and maintaining a solid and balanced balance sheet'.

The Consolidated Half-Year Financial Report as at 30 June 2025, as approved by the Board of Directors, together with the report issued by the statutory auditors Deloitte & Touche S.p.A., is available to the public for consultation at the Company's
