CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Semi-Annual Report contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements provide the current expectations or forecasts of future events of Zegna. Forward-looking statements include statements about Zegna's expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, intentions, assumptions and other statements that are not historical facts. Words or phrases such as "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "might," "objective," "ongoing," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," "will" and "would," or similar words or phrases, or the negatives of those words or phrases, may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Examples of forward-looking statements in this Semi-Annual Report include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Zegna's disclosure concerning Zegna's operations, cash flows, financial position and dividend policy.
Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are based on potentially inaccurate assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected or implied by the forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:

the ability of Zegna to safeguard the recognition, integrity and reputation of its brands and to identify and respond to new and changing customer preferences;
the impact of COVID-19 or similar public health crises on Zegna's business;
disruptions arising from political, social and economic instability, geopolitical tensions or civil unrest, including the current conflict in Ukraine and sanctions imposed onto Russia;
the ability of Zegna to successfully implement its strategy;
the ability of Zegna to achieve the expected benefits of businesses we may acquire, including in relation to the TFI Acquisition;
disruptions to Zegna's manufacturing and logistics facilities, as well as directly operated stores ("DOS"), including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic;
risks related to the operation of Zegna's DOS, including as a result of difficulties in renewing the existing lease agreements, an increase in rental charges or a decline in sales, and the operation of points of sale by third parties in the wholesale channel;
fluctuations in the price or quality of, or disruptions in the availability of, raw materials used by Zegna for its products or of commodities such as energy, which could cause Zegna to incur increased costs, disrupt its manufacturing processes or prevent or delay Zegna from meeting its customers' demand;
the ability of Zegna to negotiate, maintain or renew license or co-branding agreements with high end third party brands;
shifts in travel patterns or declines in travel volumes, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic;
the ability to attract and retain key senior and skilled personnel and preserve craftsmanship skills;
Zegna's ability to protect its intellectual property rights;
disruptions or breaches in Zegna's information technology systems compromising Zegna's business or the personal information of Zegna's customers, including as a result of cybercrimes;
the fact that the market price of Zegna's securities may be volatile due to a variety of factors;
the ability to develop and maintain effective internal controls;
Zegna has identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting in the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements; if Zegna fails to remediate these material weaknesses or maintain an effective system of internal controls, this could result in a material misstatement in Zegna's consolidated financial statements and may subject us to adverse regulatory consequences and affect investor confidence in us and, as a result, the price of our securities and our ability to access the capital markets and other forms of financing in the future may be impaired;
changes in local economic, business, regulatory, social and political conditions, as well as changes in general economic conditions (such as significant inflation) and in demand for luxury goods;
4

exchange rate fluctuations, interest rate changes, credit risk and other market risks;
the high levels of competition in the luxury goods market;
compliance with laws, including laws and regulation related to intellectual property, competition, product safety, packaging and labeling, import and processing of certain raw materials and finished goods, data protection, limits on cash payments, worker health and safety and the environment;
risks related to climate change and other environmental impacts, as well as an increased focus by regulators and stakeholders on environmental, social and governance matters;
changes in trade policy, the imposition of tariffs, the enactment of tax reforms and other changes in laws and regulations; and
other factors discussed elsewhere in this document.

Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the factors described above. Accordingly, you should not rely on such forward-looking statements, which speak only at the date of this Semi-Annual Report. Zegna undertakes no obligation to publicly revise any forward-looking statement to reflect circumstances or events after the date of this Semi-Annual Report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should, however, review the factors and risks Zegna describes in the reports it will file from time to time with the SEC.

Although Zegna believes the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements were reasonable at the time made, it cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance or achievements. Moreover, neither Zegna, nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of such forward-looking statements. You should carefully consider the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section in connection with the forward-looking statements contained in this document and any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that may be issued by Zegna or persons acting on its behalf.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
Ermenegildo Zegna N.V. is a Dutch public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap) and its ordinary shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the "ZGN" ticker. It was founded as a wool mill by Ermenegildo Zegna (the grandfather of our Chief Executive Officer) in the Northern Italian town of Trivero in 1910 with the dream of creating the most beautiful and luxurious fabrics in the world, and is now the parent company of Zegna Group, a global luxury group. The Zegna Group designs, creates, and distributes luxury menswear and accessories under the Zegna brand, as well as womenswear, menswear and accessories under the Thom Browne brand, of which it acquired an 85% interest in 2018, and following the completion of the TFI Acquisition on April 28, 2023, womenswear, menswear and accessories under the TOM FORD brand, through a long-term licensing agreement with the Estee Lauder Companies Inc ("ELC"). Our brands leverage our Made in Italy Luxury Textiles platform which provides the Group's industrial backbone and know-how. Each of our brands is unique while sharing a commitment to excellence, innovation, and authenticity defined by distinctive products and tailored customer experiences across channels and geographies. The Group and its brands are led by a world-class management team and empowered by highly recognized designers. Our goal is to provide customers with excellent products that reflect our tradition of fine craftsmanship, exclusive design content, and exceptional quality, through the sourcing of superior raw materials, the careful finish of each piece, and the way they are delivered to our customers. Through this, we aim to continue to extend the global reach of our brands while ensuring that they protect and enhance their exclusive DNA and continue to foster their ultimate luxury positioning.
Zegna operates its business in three segments: (i) the Zegna segment (comprising three product lines: Zegna branded products, Textile and Third Party Brands), (ii) the Thom Browne segment and (iii) the Tom Ford Fashion segment.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, Zegna recorded revenues of €903,059 thousand and €728,993 thousand, respectively, Profit of €52,116 thousand and €21,021 thousand, respectively, Adjusted EBIT of €119,904 thousand and €82,678 thousand, respectively and Adjusted Profit of €54,885 thousand and €22,823 thousand, respectively. For additional information regarding Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted Profit, which are non-IFRS measures, including a reconciliation of Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted Profit to Profit, see "-Non-IFRS Financial Measures".
With respect to the Zegna branded products product line, the Thom Browne segment and the Tom Ford Fashion segment, the Zegna Group operates via its direct-to-consumer ("DTC") channel worldwide through a network of 246 Zegna, 66 Thom Browne and 51 Tom Ford Fashion DOS at June 30, 2023 (239 Zegna DOS and 63 Thom Browne at December 31, 2022). The Zegna Group also distributes its products worldwide through monobrand or multibrand points of sale operated by its wholesale customers. Taking into account both the DTC channel and the wholesale distribution channel, the Zegna Group is present in approximately 85 countries worldwide. The Zegna Group's DTC channel includes boutiques and outlets, as well as concessions in department stores and multibrand e-commerce marketplaces. In the wholesale channel, the Zegna Group sells its products to franchisees, department stores, multibrand specialty stores and online multi-brand e-tailers.
The activities of the Textile and Third Party Brands product lines within the Zegna segment follow their own operational phases and logics. Through the Textile product line, the Zegna Group sells fabrics both to other product lines of the Zegna segment, to the Thom Browne segment and to the Tom Ford Fashion segment, as well as to third party customers. Through the Third Party Brands product line, the Zegna Group is engaged in the manufacturing or the supply of menswear to other fashion brands, including Thom Browne and Tom Ford.
TFI Acquisition
On April 28, 2023 Zegna announced the completion of the acquisition of Tom Ford International ("TFI") (the "TFI Acquisition"), through which it acquired the company that owns and operates the Tom Ford Fashion business, as part of a transaction in which sole ownership of the Tom Ford brand, its trademarks, and other intellectual property rights have been acquired by The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. ("ELC") and the Zegna Group has become a long-term licensee of ELC for all Tom Ford men's and women's fashion as well as accessories and underwear, fine jewelry, childrenswear, textile, and home design products, by virtue of a long-term licensing and collaboration agreement with ELC for 20 years with an automatic renewal for a further 10 years subject to certain minimum performance conditions. Zegna Group will be in charge of the end-to-end Tom Ford Fashion business, from collection creation and development to production and merchandising, as well as
6
retail and wholesale distribution. Tom Ford Fashion, under Zegna Group, operates a network of 51 directly operated Tom Ford stores globally at June 30, 2023.

Before the completion of the TFI Acquisition, the Zegna Group already owned 15% of TFI, through its fully owned subsidiary EZ US Holding Inc., and, through the TFI Acquisition it acquired the remaining 85% equity interest. In connection with the completion of the transaction, the transaction implied a value for the acquired 85% stake of TFI at $150 million in cash, on a cash-free and debt-free basis and assuming a normalized working capital. No contingent consideration arrangements were agreed as part of the transaction. A financial guarantee provided to TFI in relation to its payment obligations under a bank loan for an amount of $6,875 thousand was closed as part of the transactions contemplated by the TFI acquisition. No amounts were claimed under the guarantee. As a result of the TFI Acquisition, the Group also obtained 100% of Pelletteria Tizeta S.r.l. ("Pelletteria Tizeta"), for which it previously held a 50% interest and accounted for the investment using the equity method, with the remaining 50% interest owned by TFI and being acquired by the Group through the TFI Acquisition.

The TFI Acquisition has been accounted for in accordance with IFRS 3 - Business Combinations ("IFRS 3")using the acquisition method of accounting. For accounting purposes, the Zegna Group is the acquirer (through its fully-owned subsidiary EZ US Holding Inc.). The acquisition method of accounting under IFRS 3 applies the fair value concepts defined in IFRS 13- Fair Value Measurement ("IFRS 13")and requires, among other things, the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in a business combination to be recognized by the acquirer at their fair values as of the acquisition date (with limited exceptions as permitted by IFRS 3). As a result, Zegna will recognize the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of TFI at their respective fair values at the acquisition date. Any excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recognized as goodwill. Following the completion of the acquisition, the earnings of the combined group will reflect the impacts of purchase accounting adjustments, including any changes in amortization and depreciation expense for acquired assets.

For additional information relating to the preliminary purchase price allocation of the TFI acquisition, see Note 24 - Business combinationswithin the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere within this Semi-Annual Report.

Segment Information
The Zegna Group is organized in the following three operating and reportable segments: (1) the Zegna segment (which comprises three product lines: Zegna branded products, Textile and Third Party Brands), (2) the Thom Browne segment and (3) the Tom Ford Fashion segment. Prior to the TFI Acquisition, which was completed on April 28, 2023, the Zegna Group was organized in two segments: the Zegna segment and the Thom Browne segment.
Seasonality
The luxury apparel market in which Zegna operates is subject to seasonal fluctuations in sales. Zegna's sales are usually higher in the months of the year in which wholesale customers concentrate their purchases. For example, deliveries of seasonal goods to wholesale customers tend to concentrate from November to February for the Spring/Summer collection and from June to September for the Fall/Winter collection.
With regard to retail sales at the Group's DOS, sales tend to be higher in the last quarter of the year, driven by the holiday shopping season and in January and February, in correspondence with the Chinese New Year celebrations. However, several events may affect retail sales, including adverse weather conditions or other macroeconomic and external events (including the COVID-19 pandemic).
Operating costs, in contrast, do not generally experience significant seasonal fluctuations, except for certain increases in the months of November and December due to the variable costs associated with sales commissions and variable leases.
As a result of the foregoing, the financial results for interim periods may not be indicative of results for the entire fiscal year. Management expects such seasonal trends to continue.

The following is a discussion of Zegna's results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. Starting with the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Group presents the semi-annual consolidated statement of profit and loss by function, which is most representative of the way the Chief Operating Decision Maker and management view the business, and is consistent with international practice. In order to conform to this new presentation, the information for the six months ended June 30, 2022 has been reclassified compared to what was previously presented by the Group. For additional information see Note 2 - Basis of preparation within the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere within this Semi-Annual Report.

Revenues
Zegna generates revenues primarily from the sale of its products and services, as well as from royalties received from third parties and licensees. Revenues are recognized net of returns and discounts.
In addition to presenting our revenues on a current currency basis, the following analysis of revenues includes the change in revenues (i) on a constant currency basis and (ii) on an organic growth basis, which we refer to as "Constant Currency" and "Organic Growth", respectively. The change in revenues on a constant currency and on an organic basis are non-IFRS measures. See "-Non-IFRS Financial Measures" for additional information relating to these measures and for the reconciliations of revenue growth to organic growth.
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 amounted to €903,059 thousand, an increase of €174,066 thousand or +23.9% (+24.7% constant currency; +21.5% organic growth) compared to €728,993 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2022, driven by double digit growth in the Zegna and Thom Browne segments (including on a constant currency and organic growth basis), as well as the revenues contributed by Tom Ford Fashion, which was acquired through the TFI acquisition on April 28, 2023.
The following discussion presents an analysis of revenues by product line, by sales channel and by geographical area. For further details relating to the revenues of each of Zegna's operating segments, see "-Results by Segment"below.

(*) Throughout this document "n.m." means not meaningful.
By product line, the increase in revenues was mainly attributable to:

(i)an increase of €116,067 thousand or +27.3% (+28.4% at constant currency and organic growth) in Zegna branded products, driven by the continued positive performance of the Made to Measure business as well as shoes and luxury leisurewear, and the effects of price repositioning and price increases as part of the new Zegna One Brand strategy, which started with the rollout of the Fall/Winter 2022 collection in the prior year;
(ii)an increase of €21,785 thousand or +11.8% (+13.4% at constant currency and organic growth) in Thom Browne, driven by the DTC channel and growth across all lines (in particular womenswear and childrenswear);
(iii)revenues of €64,015 thousand from Tom Ford Fashion, which was acquired through the TFI Acquisition on April 28, 2023; and
(iv)an increase of €4,104 thousand or +6.0% (+5.2% at constant currency; +5.3% organic growth) in Textile, driven by positive performance from all business units;
partially offset by:
(v)a decrease of €31,864 thousand or -67.3% (-68.1% at constant currency; -4.4% organic growth) in Third Party Brands, reflecting the end of the previous TFI distribution license agreement for menswear with the deliveries of the Fall/Winter 2022 collection and the start of a supply agreement to act as the exclusive supplier for certain Tom Ford menswear products with the Spring/Summer 2023 collection. Following the completion of the TFI Acquisition on April 28, 2023, the revenues from the supply agreement with TFI are reported as intercompany revenues and eliminated from the Group's consolidated results.

By sales channel, the increase in revenues was mainly attributable to:
(i)an increase of €155,361 thousand or +36.3% (+38.6% at constant currency; +30.4% organic growth) in the DTC channel, composed of;
(a)an increase in Zegna branded products DTC of €103,860 thousand or +28.7% (+30.3% at constant currency and organic growth), driven by double digit growth in all regions and reflecting higher average selling prices and increased store traffic, as well as selected store openings;
(b)an increase in Thom Browne DTC of €16,750 thousand or +25.3% (+30.6% at constant currency and organic growth), driven by strong performance of existing stores in APAC and EMEA and expansion of the store network through thirteen net store openings (66 DTC stores at June 30, 2023 compared to 53 DTC stores at June 30, 2022), mainly in APAC; and
10
(c)revenues of €34,751 thousand from Tom Ford Fashion, which was acquired through the TFI Acquisition on April 28, 2023;
(ii)an increase of €18,746 thousand or +6.3% (+5.5% at constant currency and +7.6% organic growth) in the Wholesale channel, mainly due to:
(a)an increase of €12,207 thousand or +19.3% (+17.9% at constant currency and organic growth) in Zegna branded products driven by positive growth across all regions, particularly in EMEA and North America;
(b)an increase of €5,035 thousand or +4.2% (+4.2% at constant currency and organic growth) in Thom Browne driven by double digit growth in EMEA, partially offset by lower deliveries to the South Korean market ahead of a change in the business from franchising to directly operated by the Group starting in the third quarter of 2023 following a previously announced agreement with Samsung C&T Corporation ("Samsung"); and
(c)revenues of €29,264 thousand from Tom Ford Fashion, which was acquired through the TFI Acquisition on April 28, 2023;
partially offset by:
(d)a decrease of €27,760 thousand or -23.9% (-24.9% at constant currency; +4.2% organic growth) in Third Party Brands and Textile, reflecting the end of the previous TFI distribution license agreement with the deliveries of the Fall/Winter 2022 collection and the start of a supply agreement to act as the exclusive supplier for certain TOM FORD menswear products with the Spring/Summer 2023 collection. Following the completion of the TFI Acquisition on April 28, 2023, the revenues from the supply agreement with TFI are reported as intercompany revenues and eliminated from the Group's consolidated results, partially offset by an increase in Textile revenues.
The following table sets forth a breakdown of revenues by sales channel for the three months ended March 31 and June 30 of 2023 and 2022, which we believe is useful considering the seasonal fluctuation in revenues as further described in the "-Overview"section above.

By geographical area, the increase in revenues was attributable to growth in all regions, including:
(i)an increase of €70,200 thousand or +22.0% (+25.4% at constant currency; +24.3% organic growth) in APAC driven by growth in the Greater China Region, particularly in the Zegna DTC channel in Hong Kong and Macau, as well as strong performance of existing Thom Browne stores in Japan and expansion of the Thom Browne store network through eleven net store openings in APAC (49 DTC stores at June 30, 2023 compared to 38 DTC stores at June 30, 2022). The comparison is also impacted by the adverse effects on revenues in the prior year due to COVID-19-related restrictions in the Greater China Region, which have been substantially reversed in 2023;
(ii)an increase of €62,053 thousand or +23.8% (+24.2% at constant currency; +21.4% organic growth) in EMEA driven by the Zegna DTC channel in Western Europe and the UAE, which benefited from both domestic and tourist customers;
(iii)an increase of €39,101 thousand or +28.9% (+25.7% at constant currency; +16.3% organic growth) in North America primarily due to the United States and driven by the contribution of the Tom Ford Fashion segment's eleven directly operated stores, as well as double-digit performance in the Zegna and Thom Browne DTC channels; and
(iv)an increase of €3,211 thousand or +25.6% (+16.5% at constant currency and organic growth) in Latin America driven by the double-digit growth of the Zegna DTC channel in Mexico.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales comprises costs directly related to the production, procurement and supply of goods and services, including direct labor costs, costs for raw materials and components used to manufacture the Group's products (such as wool, silk, leather and other fabrics), costs for semi-finished products, finished goods, consumables and outsourced manufacturing from third parties. Cost of sales also includes depreciation, amortization and impairment of assets, lease expenses, maintenance, write downs of inventory, freight and duty, and other production related costs, including manufacturing overhead.

The increase in cost of sales was primarily attributable to (i) the impact of Tom Ford Fashion, which was acquired through the TFI Acquisition on April 28, 2023, including €3,557 thousand related to the effects of the purchase price step up of the fair value of the acquired TFI inventory that was sold subsequent to the acquisition, as part of the acquisition method of accounting, and (ii) higher sales volumes.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenues increased from 61.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to 64.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily driven by (i) a higher proportion of DTC sales compared to wholesale sales (DTC sales, which have higher margins compared to wholesale sales, represented 65% of total sales for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 59% for six months ended June 30, 2022), (ii) the effects of price increases, price repositioning and the reduction of the end-of-season sales as part of the Zegna One Brand Strategy, which started with the rollout of the Fall/Winter 2022 collection in the prior year, (iii) higher absorption of fixed costs in the supply chain, and (iv) a higher proportion of sales from Essentials collections compared to seasonal collections in line with the Zegna One Brand strategy, which resulted in proportionately lower provisions for slow moving and obsolete inventory.

The increase in marketing expenses was in line with the Group's marketing strategy announced at its Capital Markets Day in May 2022 and includes costs for events such as the presentation of the Oasi di Lino collection during men's fashion week in Milan, Thom Browne at the Met Gala in New York and the debut of the Thom Browne Haute Couture collection in Paris.

Financial income and financial expenses
Financial income and financial expenses primarily include the effects of fair value changes on put options owned by non-controlling interests in Zegna's investments in the Thom Browne Group and Gruppo Dondi S.p.A., and, up until the completion of the warrant redemption in the first quarter of 2023, the fair value changes in liability-classified warrants, as well as income and expenses relating to Zegna's financial assets and liabilities, including interest and the cost of hedging operations.

15
warrant redemption (See Note 18 - Other current and non-current financial liabilities for additional information), (ii) an increase of €6,279 thousand in interest on bank loans and overdrafts as a result of higher interest rates, partially offset by (iii) the change in fair value of the Thom Browne put option of €13,568 thousand (a loss of €2,137 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to a loss of €15,705 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2022) (iv) a decrease of €10,508 thousand relating to fixed-income securities driven by the performance of the financial markets (a loss of €2,488 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to a loss of €12,996 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2022), and (v) a decrease of €2,447 thousand relating to hedging costs.

18
The increase in revenues for the Zegna segment was primarily attributable to:
(i)an increase of €116,067 thousand or +27.3% in Zegna branded products, comprised of:
(a)an increase of €103,860 thousand or +28.7% in the DTC channel, driven by the continued positive performance of the Made to Measure business as well as shoes and luxury leisurewear, and reflecting double digit growth in all regions and the effects of price repositioning, price increases and the reduction of the end-of-season sales as part of the new Zegna One Brand strategy (which started with the rollout of the Fall/Winter 2022 collection in the prior year), as well as increased store traffic; and
(b)an increase of €12,207 thousand or +19.3% in the wholesale channel driven by positive growth across all regions, particularly in EMEA and North America;
(ii)an increase of €4,200 thousand or +6.1% in Textile, driven by positive performance from all business units;
partially offset by:
(iii)a decrease of €21,398 thousand or -38.0% in Third Party Brands, reflecting the end of the previous TFI distribution license agreement for menswear with the deliveries of the Fall/Winter 2022 collection and the start of a supply agreement to act as the exclusive supplier for certain TOM FORD menswear products with the Spring/Summer 2023 collection, partially offset by the contribution of Pelleteria Tizeta, for which the Group acquired the 50% interest held by TFI as part of the TFI Acquisition, bringing its interest in Pelleteria Tizeta to 100%.
Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT Margin
Adjusted EBIT for the Zegna segment amounted to €100,498 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of €32,501 thousand or +47.8%, compared to €67,997 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Adjusted EBIT Margin was 15.4% and 12.3%, respectively.
The increase in Adjusted EBIT for the Zegna segment was primarily attributable to:
(i)higher revenues of €98,789 thousand as further described above;
(ii)improved profitability driven by (a) a higher proportion of DTC sales compared to wholesale sales, (b) improved retail store productivity including the effects of store right-sizing, (c) higher absorption of fixed costs in the supply chain, and (d) a higher proportion of sales from Essentials collections compared to seasonal collections in line with the Zegna One Brand strategy, which resulted in proportionately lower provisions for slow moving and obsolete inventory;
partially offset by:
(iii)an increase in personnel costs mainly due to the hiring of personnel to reinforce the corporate governance and certain functions within the Zegna segment as a result of becoming a public company in December 2021;
(iv)higher advertising and marketing expenses, in line with the Group's marketing strategy announced at its Capital Markets Day in May 2022.

The increase in revenues for the Thom Browne segment reflects growth across all lines (in particular womenswear and childrenswear) and comprises:
(i)an increase of €16,750 thousand or +25.3% in the DTC channel driven by strong performance of existing stores in APAC (primarily in Japan) and EMEA and expansion of the store network through thirteen net store openings (66 DTC stores at June 30, 2023 compared to 53 DTC stores at June 30, 2022), mainly in APAC; and
(ii)an increase of €5,439 thousand or +4.5% in the wholesale channel driven by double digit growth in EMEA, partially offset by lower deliveries to the South Korean market ahead of a change in the business from franchising to directly operated by the Group starting in the third quarter of 2023 following a previously announced agreement with Samsung;
Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT Margin
Adjusted EBIT for the Thom Browne segment €31,521 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was substantially in line with €31,562 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2022 Adjusted EBIT Margin was 15.2% and 17.0%, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Zegna's principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, borrowings available under bank credit lines and other forms of indebtedness, as well as available cash and cash equivalents. Zegna requires liquidity in order to meet its obligations and fund its business. Short-term liquidity is required to fund ongoing cash requirements, including to purchase raw materials, consumables and goods for production, to pay personnel costs, as well as to fund costs for services and other expenses. In addition to its general working capital and operational needs, Zegna uses significant amounts of cash for the following purposes: (i) capital expenditures to support its existing and future commercial network and production facilities, (ii) principal and interest payments under its financial obligations, (iii) acquisitions, and (iv) returns of capital, including share repurchases and other corporate activities. Zegna makes capital investments primarily for the opening of new stores or the renovation of existing stores, as well as for initiatives to enhance and adapt production facilities to new technologies and emerging needs and to upgrade information technology systems. Zegna believes its cash generation together with its available liquidity will be sufficient to meet its obligations and fund its business and capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.
Since 2022 the Group has implemented a funding strategy with the aim of reducing the cost of financing while continuing to ensure the Group has adequate access to liquidity to meet its financial commitments and guarantee flexibility for its operations and any expansion programs. In line with this strategy, since 2022 the Group has replaced a portion of its 2022 and 2023 debt maturities with new bilateral committed revolving credit facilities that may be drawn down by the Group at any time during the relevant term. Additionally, the Group has disposed of a significant portion of its financial asset securities holdings. In particular, from January 1, 2023 to June 30, 2023, the Group disposed of securities (primarily investments in fixed income, insurance contracts and hedge funds) for total consideration of €219,354 thousand, which the Group primarily used to finalize the TFI Acquisition and capital expenditures, as well as repay borrowings. The carrying amount of the securities disposed of amounted to €216,728 thousand at December 31, 2022, resulting in a gain on disposal of the securities of €2,626 thousand.

The change of €75,612 thousand between periods was primarily attributable to the combined effects of:
(i)higher proceeds from disposals of current financial assets and derivative instruments of €190,829 thousand (proceeds of €221,869 thousand in the first half of 2023 compared to proceeds of €31,040 thousand in the first half of 2022) in line with actions taken by the Group to dispose of financial asset securities holdings primarily to fund the TFI Acquisition and capital expenditures, as well as repay borrowings; and

23
(i)higher net repayments of borrowings of €31,720 thousand (net repayments of €108,407 thousand in the first half of 2023 compared to €76,687 thousand in the first half 2022), reflecting a continuation of our funding strategy to replace borrowings with new bilateral committed revolving credit facilities that may be drawn down by the Group at any time during the relevant term; and
(ii)lower capital contributions as a result of €10,923 thousand received in 2022 from the reimbursement to Zegna by Monterubello of a special gift to all employees of the Group, as a result of the Company's listing completed on December 20, 2021;
partially offset by:
(i)lower payments of lease liabilities of €5,526 thousand (€59,115 thousand in the first half of 2023 compared to €64,641 thousand in the first half of 2022) primarily driven by a payment of €5,013 thousand in the first half of 2022 to early terminate a lease contract related to a DTC store in Japan; and

Net Financial Indebtedness/(Cash Surplus)
Net Financial Indebtedness/(Cash Surplus) is defined as the sum of financial borrowings (current and non-current), derivative financial instrument liabilities, loans and certain other financial liabilities (recorded within other non-current financial liabilities in the semi-annual condensed consolidated statement of financial position), net of cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instrument assets, securities and financial receivables (recorded within other current financial assets in the semi-annual condensed consolidated statement of financial position). Net Financial Indebtedness/(Cash Surplus) is a non-IFRS financial measure. See "-Non-IFRS Financial Measures" for important information relating to non-IFRS financial measures.
Zegna's management believes that Net Financial Indebtedness/(Cash Surplus) is useful to monitor the level of net liquidity and financial resources available to Zegna. Zegna's management believes this non-IFRS financial measure aids management, investors and analysts to analyze Zegna's financial position and financial resources available, and to compare Zegna's financial position and financial resources available with that of other companies.
The following table sets forth the calculation of Net Financial Indebtedness/(Cash Surplus) at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Borrowings
Zegna enters into and manages debt facilities centrally in order to satisfy the short and medium-term needs of each of its subsidiaries based on criteria of efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Zegna has historically entered into and maintained with a diversified pool of lenders a total amount of bilateral committed credit lines that is considered consistent with its needs and suitable to ensure at any time the liquidity needed to satisfy and comply with all of its financial commitments, as well as guaranteeing an adequate level of operational flexibility for any expansion programs. With the aim of reducing the cost of financing while continuing to ensure the Group has adequate access to liquidity to meet its financial commitments and guarantee flexibility for its operations and any expansion programs, starting in 2022 the Group has replaced a portion of its 2022 and 2023 debt maturities with new bilateral committed revolving credit facilities that may be drawn down by the Group at any time during the relevant term. As a result, the Group has reduced and will continue to reduce its borrowings, primarily through the use of cash and the disposal of certain financial investments held by the Group.
The key interest rate terms of Zegna's borrowings and the amount outstanding at June 30, 2023 are presented in the tables below based on their maturity dates.

Since 2022, the Group has entered into bilateral financing agreements in the form of a committed revolving line for an amount of €295 million and for a period between 5 to 7 years. Part of them (€190 million) have the interest rate linked to the following two important ESG targets previously disclosed by the Group: (i) at least 50% of top priority raw materials are traced to their geography of origin and from lower-impact sources by 2026; and (ii) 100% of the electricity is from renewable sources in Europe and the United States by 2024. The line was drawn down for €50 million at June 30, 2023 (undrawn at December 31, 2022).
For additional information see Note 17 - Borrowingsto the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Semi-Annual Report.
Debt covenants
Certain of Zegna's borrowings and revolving lines are subject to financial covenants requiring Zegna to maintain a ratio of Net Financial Indebtedness to Adjusted EBITDA equal or lower than 3.0x (calculated on an annual basis based on a definition of Adjusted EBITDA specified in the related agreements, which may differ from the similarly named non-IFRS financial measure included elsewhere in this Semi-Annual Report), as well as negative pledges, pari passu, cross-default and change of control clauses. Failure to comply with these covenants may require Zegna to fully repay the outstanding amounts on demand. At December 31, 2022 (the last covenant date), Zegna had a Net Financial Indebtedness/(Cash Surplus) of
26
€(122,153) thousand (representing excess cash over indebtedness) and therefore the ratio of Net Financial Indebtedness to Adjusted EBITDA was (0.6)x and Zegna was in compliance with the covenants.
Derivative financial instruments
Zegna enters into certain derivative contracts in the course of its risk management activities, primarily to hedge the interest rate risk on its bank debt and the currency risk on sales made in currencies other than the Euro. Zegna only enters into these contracts for hedging purposes as Zegna's financial management policy does not permit trading in financial instruments for speculative purposes. Derivative financial instruments meeting the hedge requirements of IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments("IFRS 9") are accounted for using hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments not qualifying for hedge accounting are recognized in profit or loss in the relevant reporting period. The interest rate and currency derivatives used by Zegna are over the counter ("OTC") instruments, meaning those negotiated bilaterally with market counterparties, and the determination of their current value is based on valuation techniques that use input parameters (such as interest rate curves, foreign exchange rates, etc.) observable on the market (level 2 of the fair value hierarchy defined in IFRS 13 - Fair Value Measurement). Derivatives are measured at fair value each reporting date by taking as a reference the applicable foreign currency exchange rates or the interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals.
The following table sets forth Zegna's outstanding hedges at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Zegna may be subject to restrictions which limit its ability to use cash. In particular, cash held in China is subject to certain repatriation restrictions and may only be repatriated as dividends. Zegna does not believe that such transfer restrictions have any adverse impacts on its ability to meet liquidity requirements. Cash held in China at June 30, 2023 amounted to €48,564 thousand (€24,257 thousand at December 31, 2022). Certain restrictions over cash also exist in Argentina; however, such restrictions do not significantly impact Zegna as cash held in Argentina amounted to €220 thousand at June 30, 2023 (€233 thousand at December 31, 2022).

________________________________________
(1)Financial receivables relate to a loan granted to Filati Biagioli Modesto S.p.A., an associate company of the Group, in the first half of 2022. The loan was converted to equity as a capital contribution in July 2023.
As noted above, in line with the Group's funding strategy, the Group has disposed of a significant portion of its financial asset securities holdings. In particular, from January 1, 2023 to June 30, 2023, the Group disposed of securities (primarily investments in fixed income, insurance contracts and hedge funds) for total consideration of €219,354 thousand, which the Group primarily used to fund the TFI Acquisition and capital expenditures, as well as repay borrowings. The carrying amount of the securities disposed of amounted to €216,728 thousand at December 31, 2022, resulting in a gain on disposal of the securities of €2,626 thousand.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In 2020, Zegna provided a financial guarantee to TFI (which prior to the TFI Acquisition, was an associate of the Zegna Group) for an amount of $7,500 thousand in relation to its payment obligations under a bank loan issued to TFI. The financial guarantee was subsequently reduced to $6,875 in 2022 and closed in 2023 as part of the transactions contemplated by the TFI acquisition. No amounts were claimed under the guarantee.
As part of the TFI Acquisition, the Zegna Group has become a long-term licensee for all Tom Ford men's and women's fashion as well as accessories and underwear, fine jewelry, childrenswear, textile, and home design products for 20 years with an automatic renewal for a further 10 years subject to certain minimum performance conditions. As part of the license agreement, the Zegna Group is required to pay minimum annual guaranteed royalties for the first 10 years of the license agreement, which at June 30, 2023 amounted to an aggregate of €182 million (undiscounted). For the remaining term
28
of the license agreement the minimum annual guaranteed royalties to be paid by the Zegna Group will be calculated based on a percentage of the net sales of the preceding annual period. The license agreement also requires the Zegna Group to make minimum investments for marketing activities as a percentage of net sales of the licensed products as per customary market practices. For additional information relating to the TFI Acquisition and license agreement, see Note 24 - Business combinationswithin the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere within this Semi-Annual Report.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures
Zegna's management monitors and evaluates operating and financial performance using several non-IFRS financial measures including: adjusted earnings before interest and taxes ("Adjusted EBIT"), Adjusted EBIT Margin, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"), Adjusted Profit, Adjusted Basic Earnings per Share and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, Net Financial Indebtedness/(Cash Surplus), Trade Working Capital, revenues on a constant currency basis (Constant Currency) and revenues on an organic growth basis (Organic Growth). Zegna's management believes that these non-IFRS financial measures provide useful and relevant information regarding Zegna's financial performance and financial condition, and improve the ability of management and investors to assess and compare the financial performance and financial position of Zegna with those of other companies. They also provide comparable measures that facilitate management's ability to identify operational trends, as well as make decisions regarding future spending, resource allocations and other strategic and operational decisions. While similar measures are widely used in the industry in which Zegna operates, the financial measures that Zegna uses may not be comparable to other similarly named measures used by other companies nor are they intended to be substitutes for measures of financial performance or financial position as prepared in accordance with IFRS. An explanation of the relevance of each of the non-IFRS financial measures, a reconciliation of the non-IFRS financial measures to the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS and a discussion of their limitations are set out below.
Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT Margin
Adjusted EBIT is defined as profit or loss before income taxes plus financial income, financial expenses, foreign exchange losses and the result from investments accounted for using the equity method, adjusted for income and costs which are significant in nature and that management considers not reflective of underlying operating activities, including, for one or all of the periods presented and as further described below, transaction costs related to acquisitions, costs related to the Business Combination, severance indemnities and provisions for severance expenses, legal costs for trademark disputes, special donations for social responsibility, net income related to lease agreements and net impairment of leased and owned stores.
Adjusted EBIT Margin is defined as Adjusted EBIT divided by revenues of the applicable period.
Zegna's management uses Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT Margin for internal reporting to assess performance and as part of the forecasting, budgeting and decision-making processes as they provide additional transparency regarding Zegna's underlying operating performance. Zegna's management believes these non-IFRS financial measures are useful because they exclude items that management believes are not indicative of Zegna's underlying operating performance and allow management to view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and benchmark performance between periods and among segments. Zegna's management also believes that Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT Margin are useful for investors and analysts to better understand how management assesses Zegna's underlying operating performance on a consistent basis and to compare Zegna's performance with that of other companies. Accordingly, management believes that Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT Margin provide useful information to third party stakeholders in understanding and evaluating Zegna's operating results.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as profit or loss before income taxes plus financial income, financial expenses, foreign exchange losses, depreciation, amortization and impairment of assets and the result from investments accounted for using the equity method, adjusted for income and costs which are significant in nature and that management considers not reflective of underlying operating activities, including, for one or all of the periods presented and as further described below, transaction costs related to acquisitions, costs related to the Business Combination, severance indemnities and provisions for severance expenses, legal costs for trademark disputes, special donations for social responsibility and net income related to lease agreements.
Zegna's management uses Adjusted EBITDA to understand and evaluate Zegna's underlying operating performance. Zegna's management believes this non-IFRS financial measure is useful because it excludes items that
31
management believes are not indicative of Zegna's underlying operating performance and allows management to view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and benchmark performance between periods.

Adjusted Profit
Adjusted Profit is defined as Profit adjusted for income and costs (net of related tax effects) which are significant in nature and that management considers not reflective of underlying activities, including, for one or all of the periods presented and as further described below, transaction costs related to acquisitions, costs related to the Business Combination, severance indemnities and provisions for severance expenses, legal costs for trademark disputes, special donations for social responsibility, net income related to lease agreements and net impairment of leased and owned stores, as well as the tax effects of the adjusting items.

Adjusted Basic Earnings per Share and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share

Adjusted Basic Earnings per Share and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share are defined as basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share adjusted for income and costs (net of related tax effects) which are significant in nature and that management considers not reflective of underlying activities, including, for one or all of the periods presented and as further described below, transaction costs related to acquisitions, costs related to the Business Combination, severance indemnities and provisions for severance expenses, legal costs for trademark disputes, special donations for social responsibility, net income related to lease agreements and net impairment of leased and owned stores, as well as the tax effects of the adjusting items and excluding the impact of non-controlling interests on the adjusting items.

Net Financial Indebtedness/(Cash Surplus)

Net Financial Indebtedness/(Cash Surplus) is defined as the sum of financial borrowings (current and non-current), derivative financial instrument liabilities, loans and certain other financial liabilities (recorded within other non-current financial liabilities in the semi-annual condensed consolidated statement of financial position), net of cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instrument assets, securities and financial receivables (recorded within other current financial assets in the semi-annual condensed consolidated statement of financial position).
Zegna's management believes that Net Financial Indebtedness/(Cash Surplus) is useful to monitor the level of net liquidity and financial resources available to Zegna. Zegna's management believes this non-IFRS financial measure aids management, investors and analysts to analyze Zegna's financial position and financial resources available, and to compare Zegna's financial position and financial resources available with that of other companies.

The following table sets forth the calculation of Net Financial Indebtedness/(Cash Surplus) at June 30, 2023 and at December 31, 2022:

Trade Working Capital
Trade Working Capital is defined as current assets less current liabilities adjusted for derivative assets and liabilities, tax receivables and liabilities, cash and cash equivalents, borrowings, lease liabilities, and certain other current assets and liabilities.
Zegna's management uses Trade Working Capital to understand and evaluate Zegna's liquidity generation/absorption. Zegna's management believes this non-IFRS financial measure is important supplemental information for investors in evaluating liquidity in that it provides insight into the availability of net current resources to fund our ongoing operations. Trade Working Capital is a measure used by management in internal evaluations of cash availability and operational performance.

All increases are driven by the overall increase in operations to support the growth in sales and production volumes, as well as the consolidation of TFI following the TFI Acquisition, which contributed Trade Working Capital of €85,921 thousand at June 30, 2023 (of which €79,339 thousand of inventories, €39,784 thousand of trade receivables and €33,202 thousand of trade payables and customer advances). The increase in inventories also reflects the build up of inventory of the Essentials collections, in line with the Zegna One Brand strategy, which is expected to normalize in the second half of the 2023.
Revenues on a constant currency basis (Constant Currency)
In addition to presenting our revenues on a current currency basis, we also present certain revenue information on a constant currency basis (Constant Currency), which excludes the effects of foreign currency translation from our subsidiaries with functional currencies different from the Euro.

We calculate Constant Currency revenues by applying the current period average foreign currency exchange rates to translate prior period revenues of foreign subsidiaries expressed in local functional currencies different than the Euro.

We use revenues on a Constant Currency basis to analyze how our underlying revenues have changed between periods independent of the effects of foreign currency translation.

Revenues on a Constant Currency basis are not a substitute for revenues on a current currency basis or any IFRS-related measures, however we believe that revenues excluding the impact of foreign currency translation provide additional useful information to management and to investors in analyzing and evaluating our revenues and operating performance.

Revenues on an organic growth basis (Organic Growth)
In addition to presenting our revenues on a current currency basis, we also present certain revenue information on an organic growth basis (Organic Growth). Organic Growth is calculated as the change in revenues from period to period,
36
excluding the effects of (a) foreign exchange, (b) acquisitions and disposals and (c) changes in license agreements where Zegna operates as a licensee.

In calculating Organic Growth, the following adjustments are made to revenues:

(a)Foreign exchange - Current period average foreign currency exchange rates are used to translate prior period revenues of foreign subsidiaries expressed in local functional currencies different than the Euro.
(b)Acquisitions and disposals - Revenues generated by businesses and operations acquired or disposed in the current year or prior year are excluded from both periods. Additionally, where a business or operation was a customer prior to an acquisition, the related pre-acquisition revenues are excluded from the current and prior periods.
(c)Changes in license agreements where Zegna operates as a licensee - Revenues generated from license agreements where Zegna operates as a licensee that are new or terminated in the current year or prior year are excluded from both periods (except if the effects are already included in acquisitions and disposals). Additionally, revenues generated from license agreements where Zegna operates as a licensee that experienced a structural change in the scope or perimeter in the current year or prior year are excluded from both periods, including changes to product categories, sales channels or geographies of the underlying license agreements.

We believe the presentation of Organic Growth is useful to better understand and analyze the underlying change in the Group's revenues from period to period on a consistent perimeter and constant currency basis.

Revenues on an Organic Growth basis are not a substitute for revenues on a current currency basis or any IFRS-related measures, however we believe that revenues excluding the effects of (a) foreign exchange, (b) acquisitions and disposals and (c) changes in license agreements where Zegna operates as a licensee provide additional useful information to management and to investors in analyzing and evaluating our revenues and operating performance.
The tables below show a reconciliation of revenue growth to organic growth, excluding the effects of foreign exchange, acquisitions and disposals and changes in license agreements where Zegna operates as a licensee, by segment, by product line, by sales channel and by geography:
for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 (H1 2023 vs H1 2022);

Qualitative and Quantitative Information on Financial Risks
The Group is exposed to several financial risks connected with its operations, including:
financial market risks, primarily relating to foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices;
liquidity risks relating to the availability of funds and access to credit, if required, and to financial instruments in general;
credit risks relating to counterparties failing to repay amounts owed or meet contractual obligations.
These risks could significantly affect the Group's financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and for this reason the Group identifies and monitors these risks in order to detect potential negative effects in advance and take the necessary actions to mitigate them, primarily through the Group's operating and financing activities and if required, through the use of derivative financial instruments.
For a detailed description of Zegna's financial risk factors and financial risk management, reference should be made to Note 38 - Qualitative and quantitative information on financial risks to the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements.

Ermenegildo Zegna N.V.
NOTES TO THE SEMI-ANNUAL CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
at June 30, 2023 and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

1. General information
Ermenegildo Zegna N.V. (formerly known as Ermenegildo Zegna Holditalia S.p.A., and hereinafter referred to as "Zegna," the "Company" or the "Parent Company" and together with its consolidated subsidiaries, or any one or more of them, as the context may require, the "Zegna Group" or the "Group") is the holding company of the Zegna Group and is incorporated as a public company (naamloze vennootschap) under the laws of the Netherlands and its ordinary shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the "ZGN" ticker. The Company is domiciled in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and the Company's registered office is Viale Roma 99/100, Valdilana (Biella), Italy.
Zegna is a leading global luxury group, internationally recognized for the distinctive heritage of craftsmanship and design associated with the Zegna and Thom Browne brands and the noble fabrics and fibers of its in-house luxury textile and knitwear business. Since its foundation in 1910 through Lanificio Ermenegildo Zegna e Figli S.p.A. in Valdilana (BI), Italy, Zegna has expanded beyond luxury textile production to ready-to-wear products and accessories to become a highly recognized luxury lifestyle group. The Group designs, manufactures, markets and distributes luxury menswear, footwear, leather goods and other accessories under the Zegna and the Thom Browne brands, and luxury womenswear and childrenswear under the Thom Browne brand. The Group's product range is complemented by eyewear, cufflinks and jewelry, watches, underwear and beachwear manufactured by third parties under licenses. In addition, following the completion of the acquisition of Tom Ford International ("TFI") on April 28, 2023 (the "TFI Acquisition"), the Group has become a long-term licensee of the Estée Lauder Companies Inc. ("ELC") for all TOM FORD men's and women's fashion as well as accessories and underwear, fine jewelry, childrenswear, textile, and home design products. The Group's business covers the entire value chain as a result of its design, manufacturing and distribution business and the Group has a significant international presence through the retail channel, consisting of directly operated single-brand stores ("Directly Operated Stores" or "DOS") and online stores, as well as through the wholesale channel, represented by multi-brand stores, luxury department stores and major international airports.

Seasonality
The luxury apparel market in which the Zegna Group operates is subject to seasonal fluctuations in sales. The Zegna Group's sales are usually higher in the months of the year in which wholesale customers concentrate their purchases. For example, deliveries of seasonal goods to wholesale customers tend to concentrate from November to February for the Spring/Summer collection and from June to September for the Fall/Winter collection. With regard to retail sales at the Zegna Group's DOS, sales tend to be higher in the last quarter of the year, driven by the holiday shopping season and in January and February, in correspondence with the Chinese New Year celebrations. However, several events may affect retail sales, including adverse weather conditions or other macroeconomic and external events (including the COVID-19 pandemic). Operating costs, in contrast, do not generally experience significant seasonal fluctuations, except for certain increases in the months of November and December due to the variable costs associated with sales commissions and variable leases. As a result of the foregoing, the financial results for interim periods may not be indicative of results for the entire fiscal year.
2. Basis of preparation
Statement of compliance with IFRS
These Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in compliance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting("IAS 34") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). The Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Group's consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022 (the "Annual Consolidated Financial Statements"), which have been prepared in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") as well as IFRS as adopted by the European Union. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those applied in the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, except as described in the section in Note 3 - Summary of significant accounting policies "New standards and amendments issued by the IASB and applicable from January 1, 2023".
F-6

These Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors of Ermenegildo Zegna N.V. on September 12, 2023.
These Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the semi-annual condensed consolidated statement of profit and loss, the semi-annual condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the semi-annual condensed consolidated statement of financial position, the semi-annual condensed consolidated cash flow statement, the semi-annual condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and the accompanying condensed notes.
The Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in Euro, which is the functional and presentation currency of the Company, and amounts are stated in thousands of Euros, unless otherwise indicated.
The Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and applying the historical cost method, modified as required for certain financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments), which are measured at fair value.
The preparation of the Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities as well as the disclosure of contingent liabilities. If in the future such estimates and assumptions, which are based on management's best judgment at the date of these Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, deviate from the actual circumstances, the original estimates and assumptions will be modified as appropriate in the period in which the circumstances change. Reference should be made to the section "Use of estimates" in the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed description of the more significant valuation procedures used by the Group in preparing its consolidated financial statements. Impairment tests of non-current assets (including goodwill and brands with an indefinite useful life for which impairment tests are performed for the preparation of Group's annual consolidated financial statements) are not performed for the preparation of the semi-annual condensed consolidated financial statements unless impairment indicators have been identified. Similarly, the actuarial valuations that are required for the determination of employee benefit provisions are also usually carried out during the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements, except in the event of significant market fluctuations, or significant plan amendments, curtailments or settlements.
Starting with the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Group presents the semi-annual condensed consolidated statement of profit and loss by function, which is most representative of the way the Chief Operating Decision Maker and management view the business, and is consistent with international practice. In order to conform to this new presentation, the information for the six months ended June 30, 2022 has been reclassified compared to what was previously presented by the Group.
Starting with the six months ended June 30, 2023, in the semi-annual condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity the Group separately presents certain components of equity, including share premium, the reserve for treasury shares and other legal reserves, which were previously presented within other reserves. Management believes this presentation, together with the accompanying notes, facilitate a better understanding of the underlying components of the Group's equity. As a result of this new presentation, certain amounts presented for periods prior to the six months ended June 30, 2023 within these Semi-Annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified compared to amounts previously presented by the Group.

3. Summary of significant accounting policies
The accounting principles applied are consistent with those used for the preparation of the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, except as otherwise stated below.

New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2023
In May 2017 the IASB issued IFRS 17 - Insurance Contracts, which establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of insurance contracts issued as well as guidance relating to reinsurance contracts held and investment contracts with discretionary participation features issued. In June 2020 the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 17 aimed at helping companies implement IFRS 17 and make it easier for companies to explain their financial performance. The new standard and amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2023. There was no effect from the adoption of these amendments.

In February 2021 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS Practice Statement 2: Disclosure of Accounting Policieswhich require companies to disclose their material accounting policy information rather than their significant accounting policies and provide guidance on how to apply the concept of materiality to accounting policy disclosures. These amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The group will include the required disclosures in the annual financial statements.
In February 2021 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: Definition of Accounting Estimateswhich clarify how companies should distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2023. There was no effect from the adoption of these amendments.
In May 2021 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 12 - Income Taxes: Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities Arising From a Single Transactionthat clarify how companies account for deferred tax on transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2023. There was no effect from the adoption of these amendments.
In December 2021 the IASB issued an amendments to IFRS 17 - Insurance Contracts: Initial Application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 - Comparative Information, which provides a transition option relating to comparative information about financial assets presented on initial application of IFRS 17. The amendment is aimed at helping entities to avoid temporary accounting mismatches between financial assets and insurance contract liabilities, and therefore improve the usefulness of comparative information for users of financial statements. The amendment is effective on or after January 1, 2023. There was no effect from the adoption of these amendments.
In June 2020 the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 4 - Insurance Contractswhich defer the expiry date of the temporary exemption from applying IFRS 9 to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. There was no effect from the adoption of these amendments.
In May 2023, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 12 - Income taxes: International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules, to clarify the application of IAS 12 - Income taxesto income taxes arising from tax law enacted or substantively enacted to implement the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)/G20 Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) Pillar Two model rules (Pillar Two income taxes). The amendments introduce: (i) a mandatory temporary exception for the recognition of and disclosure relating to deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from the jurisdictional implementation of the Pillar Two model rules, which was effective immediately upon issuance of the amendment and which the Group applied from that date, and (ii) disclosure requirements for affected entities to help users of the financial statements better understand an entity's exposure to Pillar Two income taxes arising from that legislation, particularly before the effective date of the Pillar Two model rules, which apply for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, but not for any interim periods ending on or before December 31, 2023. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of the disclosure requirements for the year end consolidated financial statements, together with developments in the adoption into domestic tax law of the Pillar Two models rules in jurisdictions in which the Group operates.

Scope of consolidation
The following changes in the scope of consolidation of the Group occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2023:
In March 2023, the Group completed the acquisition of a 25% minority stake interest in Canadian technical trail running shoe company Norda Run Inc. ("Norda") for consideration of $7.1 million, with the option to gradually increase its stake over the next nine years. Management has determined that it has significant influence over Norda as a result of its 25% minority equity interest and the Group accounts for its investment in Norda using the equity method. EZ CA Holding Corporation, a limited liability company based in Canada and fully owned by Ermenegildo Zegna N.V. was incorporated in March 2023, primarily to manage the acquisition of Norda. The Group held a 100% interest in the company at June 30, 2023.
In March 2023, Zegna Denmark ApS, a limited liability company based in Denmark and fully owned by Ermenegildo Zegna N.V. was incorporated, primarily to manage the operating activities in Denmark. The Group held a 100% interest in the company at June 30, 2023.
In April 2023, the Group completed the acquisition of Tom Ford International ("TFI") (the "TFI Acquisition"), through which it acquired the company that owns and operates the Tom Ford Fashion business, as part of a transaction in which sole ownership of the Tom Ford brand, its trademarks, and other intellectual property rights have been acquired by The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. ("ELC"). Before the completion of the TFI Acquisition, the Zegna Group already owned 15% of TFI, through its fully owned subsidiary EZ US Holding Inc., and, through the TFI Acquisition it acquired the remaining 85% equity interest. As a result of the TFI Acquisition, the Group also obtained 100% of Pelletteria Tizeta, for which it previously held a 50% interest and accounted for the investment using the equity method, with the remaining 50% interest owned by TFI and being acquired by the Group through the TFI Acquisition. For additional information relating to the TFI Acquisition and the acquisition method of accounting for the transaction, see Note 24 - Business combinations.
In the first six months of 2023, the interest held in Consorzio Re.Crea was reduced from 16.7% at December 31, 2022 to 15.5% due to the entrance of new consortium members in the company.
In March 2023, Thom Browne Korea Ltd., a limited liability company fully owned by Thom Browne Trading SA, was incorporated, primarily to manage the retail business in South Korea, following the acquisition, completed on July 1, 2023, of a network of 17 Thom Browne retail stores previously managed by Samsung C&T Corporation ("Samsung") under franchising arrangements. Samsung will continue to support the Group through an innovative retail management agreement. The Group held a 90% interest in the company at June 30, 2023.
On April 6, 2023 and April 20, 2023, respectively, Investindustrial Acquisition Corp. and Ismaco Amsterdam B.V. were liquidated.

4. Segment reporting
The Group has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the Board of Directors, which is considered the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") as defined under IFRS 8 - Operating Segments("IFRS 8"), for the purposes of allocating resources and assessing the performance of the Group.

The Group is organized in three operating and reportable segments, based on a brand perspective, as described below:
Zegna segment - Includes all activities related to the Zegna branded products, Textile and Third Party Brands (previously referred to as Strategic Alliances) product lines.
Thom Browne segment - Includes all activities related to the Thom Browne brand.

Tom Ford Fashion segment - Includes all activities related to the Tom Ford Fashion business.

Prior to the TFI Acquisition, which was completed on April 28, 2023, the Zegna Group was organized in two segments: the Zegna segment and the Thom Browne segment.
F-10

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest and Taxes ("Adjusted EBIT") is the key profit measure used by the CODM to assess performance and allocate resources to the Group's operating segments, as well as to analyze operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and benchmark performance between periods and among the segments. Adjusted EBIT is defined as profit or loss before income taxes plus financial income, financial expenses, foreign exchange losses and the result from investments accounted for using the equity method, adjusted for income and costs which are significant in nature and that management considers not reflective of underlying operating activities, including, for one or all of the periods presented and as further described below, transaction costs related to acquisitions, costs related to the Business Combination, severance indemnities and provisions for severance expenses, legal costs for trademark disputes, special donations for social responsibility, net income related to lease agreements and net impairment of leased and owned stores.
Transactions between segments are executed on commercial terms that are normal in the respective markets and primarily relate to intersegment sales.
As a result of a change in the way the CODM and management view the business, starting with the year ended December 31, 2022, costs for certain central corporate functions that are not directly attributable to individual segments, and which were previously allocated to the Zegna segment, are presented separately as Corporate. These central corporate costs, which have increased significantly following the Company's public listing in December 2021, primarily relate to the compensation of the Board of Directors and costs for functions that are managed centrally on behalf of the entire group, including group general counsel, central finance, internal audit, investor relations, insurance coverage for directors and officers, compliance and certain other centralized activities, including those related to being a public company, for which the costs are not allocated to the segments. This presentation reflects the information regularly reviewed by the CODM for the purposes of allocating resources and assessing the performance of the Group, and management believes this presentation more accurately reflects the underlying nature of such costs and the profitability of the individual segments. As a result, the related costs for six months ended June 30, 2022 have been reclassified from the Zegna segment to Corporate to conform to the current period presentation, resulting in an increase in the Zegna segment Adjusted EBIT compared to the amount previously reported for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
No measures of assets or liabilities by segment are reported to the CODM. Therefore, the related information is not provided.

8. Earnings per share
Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated as the ratio of net profit or (loss) attributable to the shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of outstanding shares (basic and diluted) of the Company.
The following table summarizes the amounts used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share:
For the six months ended June 30,

Basic earnings per share in € 0.19 0.06
Diluted earnings per share in € 0.19 0.06

For the first six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding was increased to take into consideration the theoretical effect of the potential ordinary shares relating to equity awards granted by the Group, to the extent to which they are dilutive. All potential ordinary shares are assumed to be converted into ordinary shares at the beginning of the period or, if later, at the date of grant of the potential ordinary shares. The adjustments for the calculation of the weighted average number of shares for diluted earnings per share are further explained below. For additional information see also Note 22 - Share-based payments.
(1)CEO remuneration in shares - Potential ordinary shares from the conversion of all or part of the CEO's fixed remuneration in ordinary shares of the Company.
(2)Long-Term Incentive Awards 2022-2025 - Performance share units (PSUs) and retention restricted share units (RSUs) granted to the senior management (excluding the CEO), which in the case of the PSUs are considered to be potential ordinary shares if the performance conditions relating to Adjusted EBIT and adjusted net financial

The intangible assets held by the Group increased primarily as a result of the TFI Acquisition. In particular, as part of the acquisition accounting for the acquisition, the Group recognized a license agreement asset at its preliminary fair value of €90,856 thousand determined through an income approach based on the relief from royalty method, which requires an estimate of future expected cash flows. The estimated useful life of the license agreement is 30 years, which includes the 20 guaranteed years as per the contract plus the automatic renewal period of 10 years which is subject to certain minimum performance conditions that management believes will be satisfied based on the business plan and information currently available. For additional information related to the TFI Acquisition see Note 24 - Business combinations.

The Group leases various retail stores, warehouses, equipment and vehicles. Rental contracts are typically made for fixed periods of 1 year to 15 years but may have extension options. Contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and conditions. The lease agreements do not impose any covenants other than the security interests in the leased assets that are held by the lessor. Extension options in a range of 1 year to 10 years are included in a number of property leases across the Group. These are used to maximize operational flexibility in terms of managing the assets used in the Group's operations. Such extension options are exercisable only by the Group and not by the respective lessor. Other tangible assets mainly refer to vehicles.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 no impairments were recognized. An impairment of €2,764 thousand was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and primarily related to stores in Hong Kong that are part of the Zegna segment, due to the ongoing developments in the area that could affect future cash flow generation.

F-20

As a result of the TFI Acquisition, the Group obtained 100% of TFI, as well as 100% of Pelletteria Tizeta, which was previously 50% owned by the Zegna Group and 50% owned by TFI. The Group measured the fair value as of the date of the acquisition of the previously equity interests held, which were recognized as part of the consideration transferred according to IFRS 3 - Business Combinations, and, following completion of the TFI Acquisition on April 28, 2023, TFI and Pelletteria Tizeta (which was previously owned 50% by Zegna and 50% by TFI) are consolidated by the Group. The cumulative translation losses related to the investment held in TFI, amounting to €4,705 thousand, were reclassified from other comprehensive income to profit and loss at the acquisition date as foreign exchange losses. For additional information relating to the TFI Acquisition see Note 24 - Business combinations.
13. Inventories
The following table provides a breakdown for inventories (net of the provision for slow moving and obsolete inventories):

14. Derivative financial instruments
The Group enters into certain derivative contracts in the course of its risk management activities, primarily to hedge the interest rate risk on its bank debt and the currency risk on sales made in currencies other than the Euro. The Company only enters into these contracts for hedging purposes as the Group's financial management policy does not permit trading in financial instruments for speculative purposes. Derivative financial instruments meeting the hedge requirements of IFRS 9 are accounted for using hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments not qualifying for hedge accounting are recognized in profit or loss in the relevant reporting period. The interest rate and currency derivatives used by the Company are over the counter (OTC) instruments, meaning those negotiated bilaterally with market counterparties, and the determination of their current value is based on valuation techniques that use input parameters (such as interest rate curves, foreign exchange rates, etc.) observable on the market (level 2 of the fair value hierarchy defined in IFRS 13 - Fair Value Measurement).
Derivatives are measured at fair value each reporting date by taking as a reference the applicable foreign currency exchange rates or the interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals.
At the reporting date, the Group had outstanding hedges as detailed in the tables below:
At June 30, 2023 At December 31, 2022

Each ordinary share confers the right to cast one vote. Holders of ordinary shares become entitled to special voting shares upon registering their ordinary shares in the loyalty register (thereby blocking such shares from trading on the NYSE) and maintaining them registered in such register for an interrupted period of time as prescribed by the articles of association of Zegna. Ordinary shares carry the right to receive dividends and each ordinary share carries the right to repayment of capital in the event of dissolution and liquidation, with the remaining equity after all debts are satisfied for the benefit of the holders of ordinary shares in proportion to the aggregate nominal value of their ordinary shares. Ordinary shares carry preemptive rights in proportion to the aggregate number of ordinary shares held upon the issuance of new ordinary shares or the granting of rights to subscribe for ordinary shares, subject to certain exceptions.

Thom Browne
The Group is party to an option agreement which provides Mr. Thom Browne a put option giving him the right to sell to the Group his remaining 10% interest in the Thom Browne Group not owned by the Group, in two tranches.

The financial liability arising from the obligation of the Group to purchase the non-controlling interest in the Thom Browne Group is measured at the present value of the expected exercise amount, calculated through the TB Exercise Formula as per projections contained in the latest business plan, which cover the period from 2023 to 2025. The remeasurement of the liability at each reporting date is recognized through profit or loss based on the latest available information. The liability related to this written put option at June 30, 2023 amounted to €154,824 thousand, of which €23,373 thousand was classified as current and €131,451 thousand was classified as non-current (€155,551 thousand at December 31, 2022).

The exercise price of the option is established as the EBITDA of Dondi at the exercise date, less its net indebtedness, multiplied by a given multiple less a given discount ("Dondi Exercise Formula"). The financial liability arising from the obligation is measured at the present value of the expected exercise amount, calculated through the Dondi Exercise Formula as per projections contained in the approved Business Plan.

22. Share-based payments

The Group has several equity incentive arrangements under which share-based compensation has been awarded to the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), other members of Zegna senior management and certain other employees of the Group. The equity incentives primarily consist of performance share units ("PSUs") and retention restricted share units ("RSUs"), which each represent the right to receive one Zegna Ordinary Share.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized €6,536 thousand and €6,683 thousand, respectively, as share-based compensation expense and an increase to other reserves within equity in relation to the Group's equity incentive plans.
On March 14, 2023, the release conditions relating to 70% of the Escrow Shares, representing 3,521,875 Ordinary Shares of the Company and for which the share-based payment cost was previously recognized in 2021 as part of the Business Combination, were satisfied and the shares were released from escrow and delivered to the recipients during the period. For additional information see Note 1-General information "Business combination and other transactions in 2021"to the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements.
On April 5, 2023, the Board of Directors determined the level of achievement of the performance conditions applicable to the awards under the CEO 2022-2024 LTIP in relation to the 2022 performance period. As a result of such determination, 588,000 Ordinary Shares vested and were delivered to the Chairman and CEO during the period.
On April 5, 2023, the Board of Directors verified the achievement of the vesting conditions applicable to the first tranche of awards under the IPO Performance Bonus plan conditioned upon the completion of the public listing of the Company's shares by December 31, 2021 and the attainment of predefined targets relating to the Company's share price. The Board of Directors determined that the conditions were satisfied and as a result, 690,000 Ordinary Shares vested and the same number of Ordinary Shares held in treasury were delivered, respectively, to the CEO (240,000 Ordinary Shares) and to certain members of management and other employees (450,000 Ordinary Shares), in the second quarter of 2023.

In June 2023, the CEO exercised his right to convert all of part of his cash compensation in shares of the Company, to be converted at a rate based on a multiplier of EBIT. As a result of such conversion, 468,450 Ordinary Shares previously held in treasury were delivered to the CEO for an aggregate purchase price of €3,654 thousand.

In accordance with Zegna's remuneration policy, Zegna Non-Executive Directors are entitled to receive an annual base fee of €150 thousand paid 50% in cash and 50% in Ordinary Shares of the Company, subject to a restricted stock-award. As a result, subject to continuous office through 2023 and otherwise on a prorated basis, each Non-Executive Director will be entitled to receive 7,640 Ordinary Shares of the Company in 2025.

No contingent consideration arrangements were agreed as part of the transaction.

In connection with the TFI Acquisition, the Group entered into a long-term license agreement through TFI with ELC under which the Group will be licensee for all Tom Ford men's and women's fashion as well as accessories and underwear, fine jewelry, childrenswear, textile, and home design products (as further described below).
As a result of the TFI Acquisition, the Group also obtained 100% of Pelletteria Tizeta, for which it previously held a 50% interest and accounted for the investment using the equity method, with the remaining 50% interest owned by TFI and being acquired by the Group through the TFI Acquisition. See Note 12 - Investments accounted for using the equity method for additional information. A financial guarantee provided to TFI in relation to its payment obligations under a bank loan for an amount of $6,875 thousand was closed as part of the transactions contemplated by the TFI acquisition. No amounts were claimed under the guarantee.

The Group has accounted for the TFI Acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with IFRS 3 - Business Combinations ("IFRS 3"), which applies the fair value concepts defined in IFRS 13 - Fair Value Measurement ("IFRS 13") and requires the Group to recognize the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their fair values as of the acquisition date of April 28, 2023 (with certain exceptions). Following the TFI Acquisition, the earnings of the Group reflect the impacts of purchase accounting adjustments, including changes in amortization and depreciation expense for acquired assets.

The preliminary fair value estimates reflected below are preliminary in nature and the final valuations will be completed and the fair values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be finalized during the one year measurement period provided for by IFRS 3. Differences between the preliminary purchase accounting presented herein and the final purchase accounting may occur and these differences could have a material impact on the Group's financial information, including differences in fair value estimates of assets and liabilities, depreciation and amortization, and other expenses. Acquisition-related costs amounted to €4,681 thousand and were expensed in the semi-annual consolidated statement of profit and loss.

Intangible assets and property, plant and equipment include the preliminary fair value of the license agreement under which the Group has become a long-term licensee for all Tom Ford men's and women's fashion as well as accessories and underwear, fine jewelry, childrenswear, textile, and home design products, amounting to €90,856 thousand and determined through an income approach based on the relief from royalty method, which requires an estimate of future expected cash flows. The estimated useful life of the license agreement is 30 years, which includes the 20 guaranteed years as per the contract plus the automatic renewal period of 10 years which is subject to certain minimum performance conditions that management believes will be satisfied based on the business plan and information currently available.

TFI contributed revenues of €64,015 thousand and a loss of €1,317 thousand to the Group from the acquisition date until June 30, 2023 (including additional costs as a result of the purchase price accounting). If the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2023, the semi-annual consolidated statement of profit and loss for the period ended June 30, 2023 would have included additional revenues of €97 million and an additional loss of €17 million (including transaction costs incurred by TFI prior to the closing of the TFI Acquisition).

Total assets and total revenues of TFI represent approximately 17% and approximately 7%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts at and for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
As part of the license agreement, the Zegna Group has become a long-term licensee of ELC for all Tom Ford men's and women's fashion as well as accessories and underwear, fine jewelry, childrenswear, textile, and home design products, by virtue of a long-term licensing and collaboration agreement with ELC for 20 years with an automatic renewal for a further 10 years subject to certain minimum performance conditions. As part of the license agreement, the Zegna Group is required to pay minimum annual guaranteed royalties for the first 10 years of the license agreement, which at June 30, 2023 were as follows (undiscounted):
At June 30, 2023
(€ millions)*
Due within 1 year 16.8
Due in 1 to 5 years 72.2
Due in 5 to 10 years 92.7
Total 181.7

For the remaining term of the license the minimum annual guaranteed royalties to be paid by the Zegna Group will be calculated based on a percentage of the net sales of the preceding annual period.
The license agreement also requires the Zegna Group to make minimum investments for marketing activities as a percentage of net sales of the licensed products as per customary market practices.
