EBITDA as of December 31, 2021 is EUR 7.7 million, up from EUR 5 million in 2020, with the margin on total revenue expanding by 26% to up to 31%. It should be noted that the Company capitalized development costs of EUR 0.8 million in the 2021 financial statements.

The Adjusted EBITDA Margin for fiscal 2021 is 32%, down from the Adjusted EBITDA Margin for fiscal 2020 (of approximately 35.6%). Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2021 is EUR 0.8 million, an increase of approximately EUR 1.2 million (a percentage increase of approximately 17%) compared to Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2020 (of approximately EUR 0.7 million). The increase in absolute terms is substantially due to the growth in Total Revenues, while the decrease in percentage terms is mostly attributable to the greater weight in FY2021, compared to the previous year, of the sale of a significant amount of components and semi-finished products at cost price, pursuant to a broader commercial agreement signed in FY 2017 with a leading customer in the Aerospace and Defense business sector. These components and semi-finished products, once assembled by the customer, will then allow the Company to receive royalties associated with the sale of the finished product starting in fiscal year 2022 as provided for in the above commercial agreement, as the same are subject to a know-how license by the Company.

EBIT as of December 31, 2021 amounted to EUR 6.7 million compared to EUR 4.0 million as of December 31, 2020. The increase is mainly attributable to the increase in EBITDA while depreciation and amortization tended to be in line with the same period last year.

COMPREHENSIVE NET PROFIT reached EUR 4.9 million, compared to EUR 5.9 million last year. The reduction in Comprehensive net profit for the year is attributable to the mere tax effect of the recognition of deferred tax assets in 2020, following the tax revaluation; as proof of this, the pre-tax result for 2021 is significantly higher than 2020. It should be remembered that in 2020 "Income taxes" included the recognition of deferred tax assets deriving from the tax benefit generated by the revaluation pursuant to the provisions of article 110 of Law Decree no. 104/2020 (converted with amendments by Law no. 126/2020) which took place in the financial statements as at 31 December 2020 approved in accordance with national accounting standards and subject to "derecognition" upon the first-time adoption of EU-IFRS.

NET FINANCIAL DEBT amounted to EUR 2.9 million, up from EUR 1.3 million as of December 31, 2020.
