TIP BUY SECTOR: Holdings & RE Price (Eu): 2.30 Michele Ballatore +39-02-77115.252 E-Mail: Michele.Ballatore@Intermonte.It Target Price (Eu): 2.80 Italian Research Company Update Milan, January 9, 2014 TIP BUY SECTOR: Holdings & RE Price (Eu): 2.30 Michele Ballatore +39-02-77115.252 e-mail: [email protected] Target Price (Eu): 2.80 Reassessing the Value After Moncler’s IPO Moncler: a great start. On Monday Moncler made a spectacular debut on the stock TIP - 12m Performance market, posting +47% on its first day of trading thanks to major interest from both institutional and retail investors. With revenues up 17% at 9M13 (to Eu390mn) and an 2.4 EBITDA margin of close to 30%, Moncler still has lot plenty of room to execute its 2.2 ambitious growth strategy. Still, TIP has once again demonstrated its considerable flair 2.0 1.8 for good investment opportunities. Thanks to Club 7, the special purpose vehicle set up 1.6 last summer and controlled through a 52.5% stake, TIP acquired a 14% stake in Ruffini 1.4 Partecipazioni (owner of 32% of Moncler + liquidity) for a total investment of Eu103mn. 1.2 N-12 J-13 M-13 M-13 J-13 S-13 N-13 This allowed TIP and its partners (mainly Italian entrepreneurial families) to have an indirect stake of 4.4% in Moncler. TIP TIP Rel. to BCI Index (Reb.) NAV-accretive deal. Considering Moncler’s successful IPO, we have tried to estimate the impact that the current price performance could have on our adjusted NAV for TIP. As Ruffini Partecipazioni is a holding company that contains both the 32% stake in Moncler and some liquidity, the acquisition made by Club 7 was an as yet undisclosed mix of cash and equity. We have assumed 3 different scenarios in terms of the weight RATING: Unchanged of liquidity in the total price paid, deriving an average implied acquisition price for TARGET PRICE (Eu): from Eu2.6 to 2.8 Moncler of Eu8.3 per share, with an estimated unrealised capital gain for Club 7 (at Change in EPS est: 2013E 2014E Moncler’s current share price) above Eu70mn, or around Eu38mn for TIP. 0.0% 0.0% BUY confirmed. Target from Eu2.6 to Eu2.8. Even though TIP has a 6-year lock-up agreement with Ruffini Partecipazioni (3 years for the other members of the club), we STOCK DATA Reuters code: TIP.MI remain positive on the growth potential of Moncler over this period. Our estimate of Bloomberg code: TIP IM the unrealised gains from the IPO lift our adjusted NAV for TIP to Eu387mn, or Eu3.0 per share. This latest success once again justifies our positive view on the investment Performance 1m 3m 12m company, which after the successful completion of the Printemps deal (Eu33mn Absolute 1.5% 23.5% 50.3% capital gain on the disposal of the French retail chain that was completed last Relative 4.3% 20.8% 33.3% summer) has provided a further demonstration of its strong capabilities as an investor, 12 months H/L: 2.32/1.48 placing TIP among the leading merchant banks in the Italian financial arena. SHAREHOLDER DATA Considering its significant differentiation from all other listed Italian investment and No. of Ord. shares (mn): 136 holding companies, both in terms of investment flexibility and active management Total No. of shares (mn): 129 style, we think the current discount of 21% to our estimated NAV will close (historically Mkt Cap Ord (Eu mn): 307 the stock traded at a premium of over 10% on average pre-crisis). We evaluate the Total Mkt Cap (Eu mn): 307 company using an AM-based approach coupled with our adjusted NAV, yielding a Mkt Float - ord (Eu mn): 144 fair value of Eu362mn and a target price of Eu2.8. Moreover, considering TIP’s recent Mkt Float (in %): 47.0% Main shareholder: introduction onto the FTSE Mid-Cap index, we expect the stock to enjoy more visibility D'Amico SdN 10.0% and liquidity in the near future.

As Ruffini Partecipazioni is a holding company that contains both the 32% stake in Moncler and liquidity, the acquisition made by Club 7 was an as yet undisclosed mix of cash and equity. We have assumed 3 different scenarios in terms of the weight of liquidity in the total price paid (ranging from 5% to 15% of the total investment), yielding on average implied Moncler acquisition price of Eu8.3 per share. This means that the estimated unrealised capital gain for Club 7 (at Moncler’s current share price) is just over Eu70mn; TIP’s share of this gain would then be around Eu38mn. We think the recent success of its IPO is just the beginning of an ambitious growth strategy the company will be able to deliver in the coming years. We expect TIP’s long- term investment strategy will be rewarded within the six-year time frame initially set for the investment in Moncler.

It’s moved to the top of the agenda at The World Economic Forum. Sustainable investing assets are growing. And you see more CEOs and corporate policy experts advocating long-term thinking. Virtually everywhere I go there are discussions about the role asset owners and the world’s largest businesses have in society, and how we all should be measuring their performance in that context. Just a few years ago these topics didn’t really resonate beyond Scandinavia, parts of Asia and segments of the investment community. Now they’re pervasive. The rising prominence of environmental, social and governance, or ESG, issues and the market demand for greater insights about these matters make this Sustainability Yearbook more important than ever. This Yearbook stands out for another reason. It’s the first one published by S&P Global. 4 The Sustainability Yearbook 2020 We’re incredibly proud to have acquired We thank everyone who participates in RobecoSAM’s ESG Ratings and the CSA for their continued partnership.

Moncler is based in Italy, while the production 20.20% is externalized to Eastern Europe countries. 35.12% Top 10 Other Inst. Inv. Investment strategy Insider Owner. Unknown We focused our attention on a SELL rating; Moncler has experienced a very important growth in the last years (IPO price (16/12/2013) = €10.2), but in our analysis we took SOURCE: BLOOMBERG into account the fact that now Moncler is present almost in every country, so the new MONCLER HISTORICAL openings rate will be lower than the one of last years. Moreover, Moncler is mainly a PRICE 30 “fashion trend”, also because it doesn’t have the same features as brand like Gucci, Louis 20 Vuitton or the other most important Italian luxury brands; this will bring to the risk that a new competitor will take Moncler’s place (or, at least, some of the Moncler’s market 10 share). Last but not least, even if Moncler has a negative financial position and positive 0 growth perspectives, we think that it is overvalued, which will bring the stock price to an unavoidable correction (with a P/E of ca.

At the time of writing, the COVID-19 pandemic has inflicted many losses: human, social and economic. What we are now experiencing is an unprecedented moment of crisis in modern history. However, it is during uncertain times that companies often come up with new ideas, converting the crisis into an opportunity, and adopting a long-term vision of future challenges. This prolonged disruptive situation is creating profound changes in consumer behavior and how companies are responding to these changes—prompting a debate about the future of the fashion and luxury industry. There is a general feeling of rethinking luxury and driving it in new directions, considering which business models will be feasible and more relevant in the new normal. Tradition and responsiveness, two elements that have always characterized luxury companies, will both be required to face great challenges in the post-COVID environment. We see the pandemic acting as a divider between the old way of doing business and the new scenario that is taking shape, characterized by changing consumer behavior. Hence, in this report, we talk about a new age for fashion and luxury and will explore the main trends that will drive the industry in the coming months.
