III. Interim Management Report

The Board of Directors presents its Interim Management Report to be followed by the Non-Audited, Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the Company and its subsidiaries (the "Group") for the six-month period ended 30 June 2022.

1. Principal activities of the Group remain the same, but new segment added to diversify the business

Purcari Wineries Plc ("Purcari", "Group", or "Company) is one of the largest wine groups in the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) region. The Group manages circa 1,400 hectares of vineyards and operates four production platforms in Romania and Moldova, three of which are dedicated to wine production using grapes from own vineyards and from third- party suppliers and one is dedicated to brandy production. In June 2022, the Group had over 700 employees across its four production platforms.

The Group is the leader in the premium wine segment in Romania and the largest wine exporter from Moldova, delivering to over 40 countries in Europe (Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Ukraine, Norway, UK, etc.), in Asia (China, Japan, South Korea) and in North America (Canada and USA).

Even if the core business of the Group is production and sale of wine and brandy, a new segment appeared in 2021, through the acquisition of the Romanian subsidiary Ecosmart Union SA involved in waste recycling management services (which for the year ended 31 December 2021 has not been yet a significant one).

2. Economic analysis of the results and comparative economic analysis in relation to the previous corresponding period

Economic performance and financial analysis

The Company's revenue increased +16% YoY in the first half of 2022, reaching RON 123.9 million compared to RON

106.5 million in the similar period of the last year. Sales in Q2 2022 accelerated and increased by +20% compared to Q1

2022.

During 1H 2022 the Company realized a net profit of RON 20.9 million, increasing by +2% YoY. Net profit for Q2 2022 recorded RON 8 million, decreasing compared to Q1 2022, when the company realized a net profit of RON 12 million. This is due to the decrease in gross margin by -9% in Q2 2022 versus Q1 2022, as effect of increased cost of bulk wine, packaging and transportation.

Total assets increased by 4% compared to 2021 year end, mainly driven by a net increase in property, plant and equipment with +8%, as the Company made RON 20 million of capital expenditures during first six month of 2022, while the inventories increased by +7% compared to 2021YE as the Company purchased packaging and bottled in excess in order to mitigate the risks related to disruption of the supply chains, affected by the war in Ukraine.

Company's total liabilities increased by +8% versus end of 2021, mainly on increase of payables with RON 8 million RON, as the Company distributed dividends, which will be paid on 8th September 2022.

The core business sales reached RON 112,6 million, an +8% upside compared to the first half of previous year. Moldovan market contributed the most to the growth, increasing sales by +44% YoY, while revenues in Romania grew +7% YoY. Asian region registered a high growth, up +30% YoY.

The new business segment - waste recycling management services - have added almost RON 9 million to the total revenue.

For details regarding sales of finished goods by brand and geographic region for the 1st Semester of 2022 and similar period of last year please see note 15 to these financial statements.
