Environment

Evaluating and reducing our footprint on the planet is a direction that we feel is as decisive for the success, so we want to consider and involve the entire value chain.

Product & Packaging

We invest in the research and development of materials that maintain excellent quality performance, but which are even more sustainable.

People & Community

People are at the heart of the company's operation and are our main success factor, we keep investing to maximise our human capital.

Customers are increasing their environmental responsibility and we want to meet their needs by progressively transforming our offer towards higher sustainability performance.

Customer & Clients

We do not consider sustainability as a constraint, but rather an opportunity to reach our maximum potential. We started our sustainability journey in 2020, on a voluntary basis by publishing our first ESG report.

  • Net debt as of 30 September 2025 is €15,2M compared to €22,0M as of 31 December 2024 mostly due to Operating Cash Flow of the period

  • Unused credit lines at September 30, 2025 amount to €19,5M



  • In the first nine months of 2025, we maintained a sound balance between profitability and financial strength, despite a challenging international market environment

  • In this scenario, Red division experienced some headwinds in the international markets, whereas it continued to grow consistently in the domestic market. Black division sales continued to increase compared to Sept. 2024. Blue division is progressively recovering the gap experienced in H1

  • We continue to invest in the Group's positioning both through business development projects with selected trade partners and by accelerating the pace of technological innovation across our core product ranges, particularly recharging and audio, as well as the latest categories of wearable accessories

  • CFO: Giacomo Rizzi (formerly Group Finance, Tax and Credit Director) to replace Mauro Borgogno starting from Dec. 1, 2025

  • Outlook for 2025:

    • The Group continues to be affected by the unfavorable conditions in its reference markets, despite a partial upturn achieved in the last quarter

    • In this context, considering the seasonal nature of the business-with a strong concentration of revenues and results in the final quarter of the fiscal year-and the ongoing market dynamics, the latest guidance disclosed in the September 10 press release is confirmed, based on the information available to date
