Net Profit for the first quarter of 2020 was 33.3 million euro (45.3 million euro in Q1 2019). It was affected by foreign exchange losses due to the weakness of some foreign currencies at the very end of the quarter, and a provision related to the termination of office allowance assigned to the Chairman, recently reconfirmed by the Shareholders' Meeting.

Basic earnings per share went from 0.426 euro in the first quarter of 2019 to 0.310 euro in the first quarter of 2020.

Net cash flow from operating activities was 66.5 million euro (72.3 million euro in Q1 2019). Free cash flow in the first quarter of 2020 amounted to 39.0 million euro (it was 2.7 million euro in the same period last year).

Net debt was 384.9 million euro (370.8 million euro at 31 December 2019). During the quarter, 16.6 million euro were spent in treasury shares, while the change related to acquisitions (Transtecno plus the final balance for Reggiana Riduttori, previously included in commitment for acquisitions) was 37.7 million Additionally, at the end of March the Group had commitments for the acquisition of stakes in subsidiaries worth in total 61.5 million euro (54.3 million euro at 31/12/2019).

Capital employed rose from 1,480.2 million euro at 31 December 2019 to 1,533.6 million euro at 31 March 2020, mostly because of the Transtecno acquisition. Non-annualizedROCE was 3.3% (compared to 4.6% in Q1 2019). Non-annualizedROE was 3.1% (vs. 4.9% in Q1 2019).

As at 31 March 2020 Interpump Group S.p.A. had 2,298,506 treasury shares in its portfolio, representing 2.11% of total share capital, purchased at an average cost of € 25.138.

UPDATE ON COVID-19 PANDEMIC

In Italy, in the month of April saw a worsening of the consequences of Covid-19, following the law provisions imposing an almost complete shutdown of production plants starting from March 23 and until May 3. The diffusion of the disease brought to similar provisions being adopted, in different forms, in several other countries where Interpump has established production and sales, forcing many suppliers and customers to suspend their activity.

2

Around the world, all Group companies complied to the restrictions imposed by the health authorities, with the goal of protecting the workers' health and slow down the diffusion of the virus. This entailed the adoption of personal protection devices and procedures, a reorganization of times, places and ways of work, and limitations of production. In any case, Interpump ensured continuity of service everywhere to industries and trades recognized as essential.

Under these circumstances, the Interpump Group demonstrated yet again its solidity. Activity restarted in the month of May and a return to normal is in progress, still conditioned by the provisions of govenrments and authorities.

This enormous effort was successful: no severe or fatal cases of Covid-19 were reported among the 7,400+ employees of the Goup.
