SACCOLONGO (PD), 17th JANUARY 2023

The Board of Directors of GIBUS (GBUS:IM), the Italian brand in the high-endOutdoor Design sector, an innovative medium-size company listed on Euronext Growth Milan and founded in 1982, gathered today under the chairmanship of Gianfranco Bellin and approved the consolidated revenues as of 31st December 2022, which are not subject to audit.

Alessio Bellin, GIBUS Chief Executive Officer: "The pro-forma revenues as of 31 December 2022 express our size in the light of the strategic acquisition of LEINER GMBH, completed on 30th September. Today, the GIBUS Group is positioned among the main international players in the outdoor design industry, with revenues of 111.8 million euros, of which 44% were generated abroad; these digits reflect the union of the two businesses that don't yet express the number of synergies that our collaboration will create in the coming years. We are strongly focused on integrating the High- tech Luxury (bioclimatic pergolas) and Sustainability (Click Zip) lines into the LEINER range with the aim of obtaining synergies in terms of cross-selling already for the 2023 season: in October, we set up a joint team with this objective and, in November, we organized a roadshow in 7 of the main German cities where the new range of GIBUS products was presented to the main dealers of the LEINER network and we aroused great interest. We have also launched a series of broader projects aimed at generating further synergies on the front of IT systems, digital tools, branding and communication."

Consolidated operating revenues as of 31 December 2022

Revenues amounted to 84.0 million euros, +15.5% compared to 72.7 million euros in 2021. The positive performance is attributable to both organic growth (+9.7%) and the contribution of the LEINER Group that was acquired on 30th September 2022 and consolidated starting 1st October 2022. Organic growth also benefited in 2022 from the "50% Invoice Discount" initiative, for which the ceilings for the credit assignment for 2023 have already been renewed with our partner banks.

Italy records revenues of 62.1 million euros, +15.2% compared to 53.9 million euros in 2021; revenues generated Abroad amounted to 21.9 million euros, +16.3% compared to 18.8 million euros in 2021 (with a contribution from the LEINER Group of 4.2 million euros).

With regard to the product lines, the GIBUS Grouprecords revenues relating to the High End Luxury segment of 35.0 million euros, +8.1% compared to 32.4 million euros in 2021, while the Design Line records revenues of 40.6 million euros (+12.1% compared to 2021). The incremental revenues attributable to the LEINER Group amount to 4.2 million euros, of which 0.8 million euros were generated by the subsidiary Schirmherrschaft Vertriebs, which carries out direct sales to end customers exclusively in the catering and hotel industry.
