"2022 has been a full and busy year, we have laid the foundation for a revitalization of Society, and we look to the future with optimism. - Giuseppe Caselli, CEO of the Trevi Group remarked - I say this comforted by the results of the financial statements just approved by the Board of Directors and by the encouraging signs seen in the first months of 2023. We are facing an extremely important phase, but thanks to the constant and unconditional commitment of the women and men of our organization we have managed to earn the trust of our shareholders and of the lending banks and we are able to see some comforting signs of recovery such as the significant increase in the order portfolio, +16%, of up to 699.2 million euros and in the works, increased by 29% at the end of 2022, the increase in revenues achieved throughout the year, at a rate of 15% plus a 30% growth in recurring EBITDA."

Group performance

The total recurring revenues in 2022 amounted to approximately 569.2 million euros, compared to 494.6 million euros at 31 December 2021, an increase of approximately 74.6 million (15.1%) euros.

Recurring EBITDA in 2022 was at 64.5 million euros, increased by 30% compared to the previous year and EBITDA was at 63.9 million euros (+50% compared to 2021).

The operating income (EBIT) amounted to 20.1 million euros, an improvement of 25.8 million euros compared to the previous year, which suffered a loss of 5.6 million euros.

Although conditioned by foreign exchange losses of 7.5 million euros (8.3 million in 2021), the net loss for 2022 was significantly reduced to 15.2 million euros, compared to the loss of 51.3 million recorded in 2021, as well as the net loss attributable to the Group in 2022, totaling 19.1 million euros (which in 2021 was 52.9 million). It should be noted that the foreign exchange losses essentially arise from payables and receivables between Trevi Group companies in currencies other than those used in the local financial statements of the subsidiaries and do not have an impact on the Group's cash flow.

The Net Financial Position of the Group is 251.2 million euros as of 31 December 2022, a slight improvement compared to the 251.8 million euros recorded as of 31 December 2021.

The Order Backlog in 2022 amounted to approximately 699.2 million euros, an increase of approximately 98.9 million compared to the same period of the previous year (+16.5%). The order backlog as of 31 December 2022 amounted to 587.4 million euros (at 31 December 2021 it was 454.6 million). The significant increase in the orders portfolio made it possible to increase the order backlog compared to the end of the previous year, restoring it to such a level as to allow the continuation of the economic and financial recovery phase of the Group throughout 2023.

During the year, the Trevi Group continued its recovery process despite the general context influenced by cost increase and supply chain problems caused by the war in Ukraine. The measures to combat the COVID-19 pandemic continued to be adopted in line with the provisions in force nationwide and in the countries in which the Group operates, in a general context of progressive improvement: the COVID-19 risk management has become in all ways, a process entirely incorporated in the ISO45001 Health and Safety Management System implemented by the Trevi Group.

In 2022, negotiations with the Group's lending banks (the "Lending Banks") were developed to reach agreements relating to the new financial maneuver.
