All in all Actual 2021 results exceeded Guidance 2021

Worth noting the NFP as per Guidance 2021 was calculated without some non-recurring items such as 7,3 M€ to acquire 50% Agricola Azzurra, 9,9 M€ of IFRS 16 liabilities related to 5th reefer vessel charter contract and 1,6 M€ of treasury shares buy-back

(*) Guidance released on Feb.1 ,2021 and lastly revised on Sep. 13,2021. and prepared on a like-for-like basis on PY scope of consolidation (i.e. excluding possible M&A)

  1. Excluding the increase in fixed assets due to the application of IFRS 16. Net Capex 2021 including circa 7 M€ of disposal 2021 (Milan and Oporto warehouses and a plot of land in Sicily), are equal to a net of 6,5 M€.
    (***) NFP FY 2021 includes 9,9 M€ related to a 2-year charter contract of the 5th reefer vessel, therefore the NFP excluding the aforementioned reefer charter contract amounts to 74,4 M€ and is in line with Guidance 2021

FY 2021 RESULTS - ROBUST DELIVERY

  • Economic and Financial Response
    • Supply chain is smoothly operational despite inflationary pressure and operational constraints due to international maritime transport issues (e.g. container shortage, surging freights)
    • Focus on working capital management, with particular regard to the enhancement of credit collection
    • Capex in line with planned investments
      • minor recurring investments on distribution platforms in Europe

CORPORATE

some expansion capex in particular in Spain (New warehouse in Tenerife, new market stand and enlargement of warehouse in Sevilla; new ripening centre in Sicily)

- M&A: executed earlier in Oct. 2021 the acquisition of 50% of Agricola Azzurra for a cash consideration of 7,3 M€

- Signing of a 2-year lease contract of the 5th reefer ship, in use in 2022-2023, reportable under IFRS 16 for 9,9M€ of lease liabilities

- Adoption of "Tonnage Tax" regime (flat imposition based on ships space) for Group's shipping results, causing an overall improved tax rate

Post FY 2021 closing

- On Feb. 2,2022, launch of the first multi-year strategic Sustainability Plan consisting in 11 goals covering 4 strategic areas with a total estimated

investment of 7 M€ over the plan

Market context

- Fruit and vegetables consumptions are overall flat, mixing lower volumes and higher prices (thanks also to better product mix)

- Distribution channels are normalizing after 2020 turmoil, but traditional stores and foodservice are still under pre-2020 levels

Distribution BU

- Strong sales : above FY 2020 (+1,8%) and largely positive vs FY 2019 (+5,2%)

Extremely lively sales in Q4 2021

Outstanding growth in Greece and Mexico, positive performance in Spain, France and Italy while the only drawback is in Portugal for lower banana sales ( as expected)

BUSINESS

  • Volumes are slightly under LY more than balanced by positive price/mix effect
    • Good sales of kiwi, avocado, stone fruits and table grape offset by declining basic products (banana, apple/pear, citrus).
    • Fresh-cutproducts exceed the pre-covid levels and over pace the market trend
    • Adjusted EBITDA margin of 3,5%, slightly under LY as certain fruit campaigns normalized their returns after remarkable achievements in 2020 (e.g. citrus) and canary island bananas posted lower returns
  • Shipping BU
    • CAM Line is keeping a high level of operational and economic performance, with historically high loading factor
    • Overperformance of revenues from dry containers carried on the way back from EU to Central-South America
    • Adjusted EBITDA margin of 23,5% vs 18,5% LY
