Consolidated interim report at 31 March 2023
INTRODUCTION
Legislative Decree No. 25 of 15 February 2016, which amended the Consolidated Law on Finance, abolished the disclosure requirements for the first and third quarters of the year to which issuers were subject, without prejudice to the possibility given to Consob to provide for additional periodic disclosure obligations for issuers.
Consob has provided the option for listed companies to choose whether or not to publish additional periodic financial information.
Our Group decided to give priority to market disclosure and therefore, in continuity with the past, this consolidated interim report as at 31 March 2023 has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria set forth in the IAS/IFRS adopted by the European Community at present.
This consolidated interim report has not been independently audited.
BASIS OF PREPARATION
The financial statements included in the consolidated interim report conform to the mandatory financial statement formats provided for by Bank of Italy Order No. 262 of 22 December 2005, 8th update of 17 November 2022.
In the reporting period, the accounting standards adopted remained essentially unchanged from the previous year.
For detailed information concerning the application of accounting standards, please refer to the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2022.
In the financial statements, values are expressed in thousands of euro.
The balance sheet is compared with the balance sheet in the financial statements as at 31 December 2022.
The income statement is compared with the income statement for the period ended 31 March
2022.
The preparation of the consolidated interim report usually requires a more extensive use of estimation methods than the annual report with respect to both asset and liability items and income statement items.
