The Superga store in Turin Credits: BasicNet spa On February 28, BasicNet and Permira signed an agreement for Permira to acquire 40 percent of the share capital of K-way spa. The transaction had a significant impact on consolidated shareholders' equity and the consolidated net financial position, according to the note, “which benefited from an increase of 169.9 million euros. In order to provide a more accurate representation of the group's economic performance in the quarter, the indicators below have been prepared on the basis of a pro forma consolidated balance sheet, which excludes the extraordinary economic effects resulting from the disposal and, in particular, the related costs (amounting to 16.7 million euros)”. The capital gain from the sale, provisionally amounting to 141.5 million euros, is only recognisable in the separate financial statements of BasicNet spa. EBITDA totalled 12.7 million euros (12.4 million euros as of March 31, 2024, plus 2.2 percent); EBIT amounted to 7.5 million euros (8.2 million euros in the first three months of 2024, minus 7.5 percent), after allocating depreciation of tangible and intangible assets of 2.5 million euros and depreciation of rights of use of 2.6 million euros, an increase due to new openings as part of the development of the retail sector. In an evolving environment, influenced by a variable geopolitical and macroeconomic scenario, the group, the note specifies, continues to focus on medium-to-long-term growth with the aim of creating brand value, through the development of the network of stores and continuous investment in communication to support the brands.
