Phase One is currently underway, delivering 2025 higher than expected results through significant costs optimization and operational efficiencies, while sales underperformed (-8.3% vs 2024).

2025 Results:

  • The strong actions implemented by management to reduce and optimize the cost base (approx. €27.4 million saving) have offset the challenging dynamics of the sales performance, resulting in an adjusted EBIT in line with FY2024.

  • Net loss FY2025 amounts to €16.2m, halved compared to FY2024. Bank Debt at -€92.6m (-€103.2m FY2024).

Cost efficiencies offset decline in sales

  • FY2025 was impacted by a decline in sales of approximately €55.1 million (-8.3%) compared to the previous year, due to a deteriorating market environment that is affecting both physical and online Wholesale channels.

  • Gross margin on sales stable and resilient, supported by consolidated and well-established supply chain conditions.

  • Adjusted EBIT (net of non-recurring items) at €9.0 million (€8.8 million in 2024) achieved thanks to cost efficiency measures, which helped mitigate the impact of lower sales volumes.





Business Review - Sales and Margins

Net loss FY2025 amounts to €16.2m, halved compared to FY2024



FY2025 result was impacted by a sales decline of approx. €55.1 million (-8.3%) compared to the previous year, leading to a gross margin reduction of around €27.2 million. In response, during the second half of 2025, the management has implemented a plan to downsize the Group's operational structure which, combined with the efficiency measures already ongoing for several months, enabled further savings on operating costs structure for about €27.4 million.

Net loss amounts to €16.2 million, halved compared to FY2024 (€30.3 million), mainly thanks to the already mentioned cost efficiency initiatives, but also through:

  • reduction in non-recurring items of approximately €0.9 million. During FY2025, non-recurring costs of €12.1 million were incurred for the restructuring of the internal model

    aimed at enhancing its efficiency and sustainability (€13.0 million in FY2024).

  • reduction in financial expenses of approximately €11.7 million, mainly due to the different EUR/RUB exchange rate quotation and lower debt levels supported by €29.4

    million capital increase;

  • reduction in taxes of approximately €1.3 million.

Agenda



Gross profit flat

  • Gross profit confirms the now stable conditions of the supply chain.

Operating costs decrease by €27.4m driven by:

  • Selling and distribution costs primarily include expenses related to the sales force and outbound transportation. These costs declined in line with the reduction in sales volume.

  • A&P expenses saw a reduction (-60 bps), mainly driven by lower marketing

    expenditures.

  • G&A expenses decreased, primarily due to lower costs associated with DOS operations (linked to perimeter reduction), along with reductions in personnel costs, logistics and consultancy expenses. It is worth noting that G&A expenses were adjusted by approximately €12.1 million of non-recurring items.

  • EBIT Adjusted amounts to €9.0m (€8.8m in FY2024).

  • EBITDA Adjusted amounts to €75.5m (€76.3m in FY2024).

  • EBITDA Adjusted ante IFRS amounts to €24.8m (€26.2m in FY2024).

* Numbers Adjusted by non-recurring items



Financial Review - Income statement

Net financial expenses decline significantly driven by:

  • Positive exchange rate amounting to €4.5 million mainly related to RUB, compared to

    -€5.4 million in the same period of the previous year.

  • Slightly lower cost of debt, reflecting a lower average level of indebtedness supported by the capital increase and by reduced receivables assignment to the factor.

PLEASE NOTE: FORECAST UNCERTAINTY REMAINS VERY HIGH DUE TO THE GEOPOLITICAL SITUATION AND INFLATIONARY PRESSURES.

Given: the persistent uncertainty and volatility of the international environment, which continue to significantly affect the market dynamics and consumer behavior, all forward-looking statements and estimates regarding Group's performance and reference market remain subject to the instability of the current geopolitical, economic, and inflationary environment.

  • FY2026 sales to decline in the low single digit area compared to FY2025.

  • FY2026 EBIT margin Adj estimates to remain unchanged (2-3% on sales) thanks to cost efficiency initiatives.

  • Bank Debt for the end of FY2026 in the range of € 80-85 million.
