P.A FIN . STATEM . CONSOLIDATED FIN . STATEM . DIRECTORS’ REPORT Introduction The financial statements at 31 December 2019, pursuant to Legislative Decree No. 38 of 28 February 2005, have been prepared in accordance with the accounting and measurement policies laid down in the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and adopted by the European Commission according to the procedure set out in Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 July 2002. As from 1 January 2019, the Group adopted the new international accounting standard IFRS 16 by using a modified retrospective approach for which the restatement of comparative data is not required. The effects of the adoption of this standard, which are detailed hereinbelow, consist of the derecognition of lease payments accrued in the period, falling within the scope of application of IFRS 16, from the income statement, thus giving rise to an improvement in EBITDA. Furthermore, amortisation of right-of-use assets is charged to profit or loss, with an adverse impact on the operating result, and notional interest expense is recognised on lease liabilities. With regard to balance sheet ratios, net invested capital recorded an increase during the half- year as a result of the recognition of right-of-use assets, while net financial position was adversely affected by the recognition of right-of-use liabilities. Group performance and results for the 2019 financial year In 2019, the Cremonini Group recorded revenues of Euro 4,437.0 million compared to Euro 4,184.1 million in 2018, showing an increase of Euro 252.9 million (+6.0%). The gross operating margin amounted to Euro 377.2 million compared to Euro 289.4 million in 2018, showing an increase of Euro 87.8 million (+30.3%), while the operating result was Euro 193.9 million compared to Euro 167.2 million in 2018, up by Euro 26.7 million (+160%). The first-time adoption of the new accounting standard IFRS 16, which provides for a different method of accounting for leases with the direct control of the asset covered by the contract, resulted in an increase of Euro 62.9 million in gross operating margin and Euro 9.9 million in operating result. The gross operating margin and operating result, as adjusted by the effect of IFRS 16, amounted to Euro 314.3 million and Euro 184.9 million, respectively, in any case showing an improvement of Euro 24.9 million and Euro 16.8 million, respectively, against comparable data for 2018. The profit from ordinary activities, which amounted to Euro 145.8 million (Euro 150.8 million in 2018), was adversely affected by the recognition of notional financial costs of Euro 19.9 million connected with the adoption of IFRS 16, as well as by accounting for a loss on the net cash position of the Angolan subsidiaries, equal to Euro 10.9 million. This loss arose from the adoption of “IAS 29 – Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies” in the financial statements of the Angolan subsidiaries, the currency of which recorded a considerable depreciation in recent years. Finally, the net profit was Euro 44.6 million, down by Euro 6.5 million compared to Euro 51.6 million in 2018, mainly due to the effects of the non-recurring notional items mentioned above. Net of the effects of IFRS 16, the net result would be equal to Euro 52.5 million, up by Euro 0.9 million compared to 2018. Below are summarised the schedules of the income statement, balance sheet and cash flows for 2019, compared with the consolidated financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2018. For a more complete analysis of the Group’s results, the related details are reported below, broken down by business sector. 4 GROUP ORGANIZATION CORPORATE BODIES DIRECTORS ’ REPORT CREMONINI S.

A vast water basin, the legendary and mysterious Lake Cycling between Lodi and Milan TGerundo, extended in the past from Truc- 10 CYCLING ROUTES FROM PUNTO PARCO CASA DELL’ACQUA IN PAULLO cazzano southwards, flooding most of that land that today is called the “Lodigiano” north from Lodi. Floods of the rivers Adda and Serio formed an area of morasses and marshes, and it is from the Latin word for marsh, “palus” (in Ital- ian “palude”) that the name Paullo is derived. The existence of Lake Gerundo is men- tioned in chronicles and documents until year 1000. Later on, the work of land recla- mation performed throughout Milanese and Lodigiano drained the lake away. Today the remains of this lake can be seen in Mignete (see Routes 1, 4 and 9) hamlet of Zelo Buon Persico, where a vast grove of reeds and wetlands (the famous “Mortone”) can be observed from the morphological terrace near the cycling route towards Lodi, along the Provincial Street SP16. Here it is common to see grey herons, pheasants and other rare birds that have found their ideal View of the Muzza towpath habitat in this environment. 1 Today the names of the places bring back to wetlands was reduced, merging the waters 1965 to make room for an ugly building in memory the legend of Lake Gerundo, with into the «Mutia» (ancient name of the Muzza reinforced concrete.

Col. Gavin. T. A. Douglas, DFC, FSAScot and his bride of ten months Anne Douglas in search of the history of our Douglas ancestor who departed Scotland in 794 in search of adventure. We carried in hand Scottish chronicles noting the accomplishments of one Sholto Duglas who in 770 came to the aid of Solvathius, King of Scots; defeating the king’s enemies, his bravery and skills Dr. Deborah Richmond Foulkes as the staunch warrior-tactician were rewarded with a large grant of land in Lanarkshire. As our small group embarked from our starting point in Milano, Italy we reviewed the briefings for the journey; noting the Italian records that referred to one Guillelmo de Duglas, a younger son of Sholto who arrived in Piacenza Italy at the end of the 8th century; a lieutenant in service to Carlo Magno, Emperor Charlemagne. We had plans to visit some of the strongholds of the descendants of that first ‘William’ Douglas Scotti. What we found were castelli and roccas and medieval villages that protected the ancient Ducato of Piacenza nestled in the shadows of the Italian Alps; a string of fortresses residing on original defensive positions, several established by the ancient Romans, others by one Scottish warrior from the 9th century and his heirs; sites evolving into medieval castles, some held today by the proud descendants of Guillelmo de Duglas.

  • Italian Policies to Prevent Covid-19 and Contain Its Spread in Prisons
    Italian policies to prevent Covid-19 and contain its spread in prisons About Antigone Founded in 1991, Antigone is a NGO dealing with human rights protection in the penal and penitentiary system. It carries on a cultural work on public opinion through campaigns, education, media, publications and its self-titled academic review. An Observatory on Italian prisons, involving around 200 people, is also active since 1998, when Antigone received from the Ministry of Justice special authorizations to visit prisons with the same power that the law gives to parliamentarians. Antigone’s observers can enter into prisons also with video-cameras. Every year Antigone’s Observatory publishes a Report on Italian penitentiary system. Since 2009, Antigone is allowed to enter also in all Italian juvenile prison facilities. Through a prison Ombudsman to which it gave birth, Antigone also collects complaints from prisons and police stations and mediates with the Administration in order to solve specific problems. Furthermore, Antigone’s lawyers and physicians operate in some Italian prisons giving suggestions and monitoring life conditions. Antigone also carries on investigations about ill-treatments and sometimes is formally involved in the related trials and leads a European Observatory on prisons involving nine European Countries and funded by the European Union. 1. Note. This affidavit reports the steps taken by Italian institutions in chronological order. Final considerations can be found in paragraphs 11 and 12. Between February 22 and March 13, several decrees and internal regulations were issued; as the necessity to prevent the spread of the virus grew more compelling these documents became increasingly detailed and specific,.
