Valsoia SpAMIL: VLS

Corporate presentation October 20, 2026

· Issued by Valsoia SpA

Summary by 6ix AI

Valsoia, an Italian food company with healthy food, traditional food and international divisions, published an investor presentation reporting total consolidated revenues of € 62.4 mln for the first half of 2026 (to June 30, 2026), up 4.4% from the first half of 2025.

Key details

  • EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) was € 5.7 mln, compared with € 7.1 mln in the first half of 2025. The margin was 9.1%, down from 12.0%. The company attributes the decrease to one-off costs linked to the new Serravalle Sesia plant and to the strengthening of its information systems.
  • Net profit for the first half of 2026 was € 2,894 thousand, compared with € 4,231 thousand a year earlier.
  • By division, Healthy Food revenues rose 10.8%, Traditional Food fell 5.4% and Export rose 54.0%. The company links the export growth to the Krepko brand acquisition. It links the Traditional Food decline to the end of the Oreo's cereals distribution contract and to delays in Santa Rosa jams and Vallè margarine.
  • The adjusted net financial position (net cash) was € 8.0 mln at June 30, 2026, compared with € 17.0 mln at the end of 2025. The company attributes the decrease to investments in the Serravalle Sesia plant and to the Krepko brand acquisition.
  • Valsoia acquired 70% of the Slovenian company Kele & Kele d.o.o., maker of Krepko brand kefir, for about € 3 million, based on a total enterprise value of € 5.4 million. The deal closed in December 2025 and was financed with existing resources.

What’s still pending

  • Expansion work at the Serravalle Sesia plant is expected to be completed in the second half of 2026. The plant is expected to become operational gradually starting in that period.
  • The company says the one-off plant and information-system costs anticipate benefits in efficiency, productive capacity and innovation, which it expects from the last four months of the year.
  • The founding partners keep the remaining 30% of Kele & Kele d.o.o. and are to stay in management for at least 3 years. At the end of 3 years, Valsoia will have the right, through a put and call mechanism, to potentially acquire that 30%.
  • The company is negotiating its 2026 contract renewals with large-scale retailers and its contracts with suppliers of raw materials, packaging and services.

FINANCIAL RESULTS

H1 2026 HIGHLIGHTS

Total Consolidated Revenues H1 2026 equal to € 62.4 mln, with an excellent performance of foreign sales, thanks to the acquisition of the Krepko brand, while revenues in the domestic market remained substantially stable due to the conclusion of the distribution contract of "Oreo's" cereal and the delay in the sales of the "Santa Rosa" jams and the "Vallè" margarine.

The Company continued its investments in communications and consumer marketing, as well as industrial and organizational investments, as the launch of the innovative "cornetto zero", the first plant-based ice-cream cone with zero added sugar. The completion of the new Serravalle Sesia plant, which will gradually become operational starting in the second half of the year, is on track.

The Company is committed to controlling the costs of products and services, having to deal with a further strong growth for key raw materials, ready to face the unexpected difficulties arising from the challenging international situation.

Solid positive Adj. Net Financial Position

€ 8.0 mln as of 30 June 2026, decreasing due to the ongoing investment in expanding the production plant and to the recent acquisition of control shares in the Slovenian company, owner of the brand "Krepko".

Revenues in H1 2026 recorded a +4.4% growth vs H1 2025 mainly thanks to the acquisition of the Krepko brand, which led to an excellent performance of foreign sales.

In particular, the revenues from the Healthy Food Division registered an increase (+10.8%) and those from the Traditional Food Division were decreasing due to the conclusion of the distribution contract of Oreo's cereals and a delay in Santa Rosa jams and Vallè margarine.

EBITDA at € 5.7 million, decreasing yoy due to one-off costs linked to the new Serravalle Sesia plant and the strengthening of the information systems. These costs anticipate the structural benefits in terms of efficiency, productive capacity and innovation, already expected from the last four months of the year.

OUTLOOK

35

VALSOIA ACQUIRES 70% OF THE SLOVENIAN COMPANY KELE & KELE d.o.o.

Valsoia enters the Kefir market by acquiring 70% of the Slovenian Company "Kele & Kele d.o.o.", producer and distributor of the "Krepko" brand Kefir, the historic number 1 in Kefir market in Slovenia

To date, Kele & Kele d.o.o. business is developed exclusively in Slovenia, where the "Krepko" brand, with a 30.2% market share in value and a 3.5% YoY growth in consumption, is the leader in the Kefir market with a significant distribution coverage in Slovenia

The acquisition is in line with Valsoia's strategy of entering a new, strongly developing market with a leading brand, driven by the growing demand for Healthy and natural foods

Price of about € 3 million for 70% of the Company, based on a total EV of € 5.4 million. The transaction was entirely financed with existing resources from Valsoia

The remaining 30% will remain to the founding partners, who will maintain an active role in company management for a minimum period of 3 years. At the end of 3 years, Valsoia will have the right to proceed, through a put&call mechanism with the potential acquisition of the remaining 30%

36

OUTLOOK

In the first months of 2026, the trend in revenues is similar by product lines and brand to 2025. Sales of "Loriana" piadina and "Diete.Tic" sweetener and foreign sales are therefore still positive.

The expansion work at the Serravalle Sesia plant is progressing according to the project schedule and budget, reaching its completion in the second half of 2026

The work with the Kele&Kele company has also begun, after the closing happened in December 2025. In the coming months, the management will close the brand's strategic plan for its development in Slovenia and Europe, starting with the Italian market.

Television programming resumed as planned at the end of February, while several new products were presented to the market, both in the healthy and traditional food lines.

As every year, the Company is currently negotiating its 2026 contract renewals with large-scale distribution, and it is also engaged in intense negotiations with suppliers of raw materials, packaging, and services.

37

NEXT CHALLENGES, 2025 - 2027 CHAMPIONS OF GROWTH

  • Vegetarian ice cream: No. 1 worldwide where we are already present

  • Piadina: No. 1 in the Italian ambient market and Distribution abroad

  • Diete.Tic: No. 1 in the Italian sweetener market
