    MAIN CONSOLIDATED ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL DATA AS OF 30 JUNE 2025 Total consolidated revenues, equal to € 49.5 million, are in line with the first 6 months of 2024 (€ 49.2 million), confirming the breakdown of revenues by business area which sees growth in service revenues (+2%) and a slight decline in Infrastructure revenues (-4%). Adjusted EBITDA, calculated net of extraordinary costs of approximately € 0.4 million (€ 0.3 million in the first half of 2024), amounted to approximately € 12.7 million (+2% compared to € 12.4 million in the first half of 2024) with an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 25.6% (25.2% in the first six months of 2024). This improvement is essentially linked to the increase in high value-added revenues and the reduction in Cost of Goods sold due to lower Infrastructure revenues, despite an increase in service Costs due to the increase in costs related to Consumer customers as a result of the growth in corresponding revenues. Operating profit (EBIT) amounted to € 6.7 million, slightly down compared to the first half of 2024 (€ 7.0 million) due to higher depreciation and amortization related to increased investments. The EBIT margin was 13.6% compared to 14.2% in the first half of 2024. Financial expenses (net of respective income), equal to € 0.9 million, recorded a decrease of 49.8%, mainly due to the recognition of a non-monetary financial income, equal to € 1.9 million, in line with the requirements of the international accounting standard IFrs 9 as part of the renegotiation of the € 50 million loan, which took place on 19 June 2025. Net profit amounted to € 4.1 million, up approximately 15% compared to the result recorded in the first six months of 2024 (€ 3.6 million), due to the above-described effects.

Net equity as of 30 June 2025, is € 83.4 million compared to € 73.0 million as of 31 December 2024.
