STRATEGIC OUTLOOK 2024 – 2025

In light of the results of the first nine months of 2024, the Company confirms the 2024 Guidance and the 2025 Strategic Outlook, previously communicated to the market.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

Following the great success achieved last September at the Monaco Yacht Show, in particular with the MY Admiral 66m JAS and MY Admiral 78m Platinum, the Company is working on several negotiations for large yachts, which it believes will be finalised between late 2024 and early 2025. In this perspective, TISG recently presented to the market some details of its newest project in the Admiral fleet, ADM 75m, a response to the growing industry demands in the 70m+ segment, redefining the concept of elegance and comfort at sea. TISG Style Centre and the technical department have in fact developed an innovative project that aims to redefine the standards of liveability and comfort on board, starting from a consolidated platform and optimising the use of both interior and exterior spaces. The ADM 75m features an innovative diesel-electric propulsion system, which confirms the Group's commitment to reducing environmental impact and to sustainability, as well as its focus on constant technological innovation. The success of the semi-custom lines also continues, including the Panorama project and the Admiral Quaranta project, product lines that allow production capacity to be optimised without burdening the technical and design areas of the company, reducing customer waiting times.

OTHER RESOLUTIONS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS CO-OPTATION OF THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors co-opted and appointed Dr Filippo Menchelli as Chairman, who had already held the same position from May 2020 to June 2024.

In June 2024, as already communicated, due to the general company evolution and the important growth of the group, and in view of his great experience and competence, he had been asked for a greater focus and greater operativeness on the business.
