Descrizione del Gruppo Technoprobe

Technoprobe è stata costituita nel 1996 da un'idea imprenditoriale del suo fondatore Giuseppe Crippa ed è a capo di un Gruppo che progetta e realizza interfacce elettro-meccaniche denominate Probe Card utilizzate per il test dei semiconduttori di tipo non- memory o SOC (system on chip). Sulla base dei dati attualmente disponibili, il Gruppo risulta essere il secondo produttore di Probe Card a livello mondiale in termini di volumi e fatturato ed è l'unico produttore sul territorio italiano.

Technoprobe è attiva nella progettazione e produzione delle Probe Card.

Le Probe Cards sono dispositivi ad alta tecnologia (fatti su misura in base allo specifico chip) che consentono di testare il funzionamento dei chip durante il loro processo di costruzione, ossia quando si trovano ancora sul wafer di silicio. Si tratta, quindi, di progetti e soluzioni tecnologiche che garantiscono il funzionamento e l'affidabilità dei dispositivi che rivestono un ruolo determinante, tra l'altro, nell'industria dei computer, degli smartphone, del 5G, dell'Internet of Things, della domotica e dell'automotive. Le Probe Card sono dei "consumables" in quanto il loro ciclo di vita è legato ad uno specifico chip e nessuna parte della Probe Card può essere riutilizzata.

In Italia il Gruppo ha la sua sede legale a Cernusco Lombardone (LC), comune alle porte di Milano, dove è presente anche un centro produttivo che occupa una superficie coperta di circa 18,000 mq. Inoltre, il Gruppo ha altri due stabilimenti produttivi in Italia: il primo di circa 3.000 mq ad Agrate (MB), e il secondo di circa 5.000 mq ad Osnago (LC), che entrerà in funzione nel primo trimestre 2022. Infine, il Gruppo dispone di altre 11 sedi a livello mondiale, distribuite tra Europa, Asia (Taiwan, Corea del Sud, Cina e Singapore) e Stati Uniti. I principali produttori al mondo di semiconduttori sono clienti del Gruppo.

Il Gruppo impiega attualmente circa 2.200 dipendenti a livello consolidato (dei quali 1.300 in Italia) e ha generato ricavi nell'esercizio chiuso al 31 dicembre 2020 pari ad Euro 329,5 milioni. Il Gruppo dispone di oltre 500 brevetti

Nothing contained herein is, or shall be relied upon as, a promise or representation by the Managers or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, advisers or agents in this respect, whether as to the past or future.

None of the Managers or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, advisers or agents assumes any responsibility for its accuracy, completeness or verification and accordingly the Managers and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, advisers or agents disclaim, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all liability whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise which they might otherwise be found to have in respect of this announcement or any such statement. The Managers are each acting exclusively for the Company and the Selling Shareholders in the transaction referred to in this announcement and for no-one else in connection with any transaction mentioned in this announcement and will not regard any other person (whether or not a recipient of this announcement) as a client in relation to any such transaction and will not be responsible to any other person for providing the protections afforded to their respective clients, or for advising any such person on the contents of this announcement or in connection with any transaction referred to in this announcement.

Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the Shares may decline, and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the offering. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, the Managers will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the Shares. Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.
