ITALIAN WINE BRANDS: TOTAL SALES VOLUME GROWTH CONFIRMED FOR 2025, WITH A STRONG DRIVER FROM THE HO.RE.CA CHANNEL CONSOLIDATED BUSINESS SALES OF €395.9 MILLION Second-Half Revenue AcceleratesMilan, January 29, 2026 - The Board of Directors of Italian Wine Brands S.p.A. ("IWB" or the "Group"), a leading Italian wine group listed on the Euronext Growth Milan market of the Italian Stock Exchange, has approved preliminary consolidated revenues for 20251, with business sales totaling €395.9 million.
In a global context characterized by a slowdown in consumption, which has not been an exception for wine, IWB's strategy of (i) maintaining a diversified presence across all distribution channels and (ii) continuing to expand sales and expand its customer base in existing markets has enabled the Group to:
increase sales volumes in both the Ho.re.ca channel (+9.63%) and the wholesale channel (+3.77%);
continue to increase revenues in the Ho.re.ca channel (+6.2%).

The minimal difference compared to 2024 is due to the results of the distance selling channel, penalized in particular
‌1Not yet subjected to legal review and which will be definitively approved by the Board of Directors on 27 March 2026
by the trend in telephone and mailing sales, and to the slight contraction in prices in the wholesale channel, where the repositioning of market prices started at the beginning of 2023 continues.
It is also important to underline that in the second half of the year the Group achieved revenues equal to those of the second half of 2024, which had been a record year, more than offsetting the decline in B2C revenues with B2B sales.

In a year further complicated by market volatility, following the recurring news about tariffs, IWB worked to improve customer service levels through the development of "dedicated projects" aimed at increasing customer loyalty. These "dedicated projects" are aimed at specific customers, offering a customized IWB branded product to make the on-shelf offering increasingly innovative and personalized. They represent 10% of the contribution margin of the B2B segment (wholesale + Ho.re.ca). Compared to 2024, they achieved growth of 26.5% in volume and 25% in value.
The top brands overall confirmed the values achieved in 2024; in particular, the 3% growth in both volume and value of the two top brands (Grande Alberone and Voga), which alone represent 50% of the cluster, is noteworthy.
The tables below show sales revenues by market, highlighting:
further growth in international sales;
strengthening of the company's position in Europe, particularly in the UK, where revenues increased
10.7%, reaching a record turnover of €99.4 million;
the decline in revenues in North America is attributable to the US (-3.9%), penalized by uncertainties regarding tariffs and the exchange rate effect; performance in Canada was very positive, with revenues up 11.4%.
