Maranello (Italy), August 2, 2021 – Ferrari N.V. (NYSE/MTA: RACE) (“Ferrari” or the “Company”) today announces its consolidated preliminary results( ) for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Shipments⁽³⁾⁽⁴⁾

Shipments totaled 2,685 units in the second quarter of 2021, up 1,296 units or 93.3% versus the prior year quarter, which was heavily impacted by the disruptions of the Covid-19 pandemic, including production and delivery suspension during the initial part.

Sales of 8 cylinder models (V8) were up 111.2% and 12 cylinder models (V12) were up 37.6%. The deliveries of the quarter were driven by the F8 family and the 812 GTS together with the SF90 Stradale and the Ferrari Roma, which reached global distribution. The Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2 continued to be delivered in line with planning. The first deliveries of the new Ferrari Portofino M commenced in the quarter.

All geographic regions positively contributed in the quarter. EMEA⁽⁴⁾ was up 89.4%, Americas⁽⁴⁾ increased 70.3%, Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan posted a strong 564.0% performance, boosted by the arrival of new models and accentuated by an easy comparison versus prior year⁽⁵⁾, and Rest of APAC⁽⁴⁾ surged by 92.4%.

Total net revenues

Net revenues for the second quarter 2021 were Euro 1,035 million, up 86.0% at constant currency⁽¹⁾.

Revenues from Cars and spare parts⁽⁶⁾ were Euro 881 million (up 95.5% or 101.0% at constant currency⁽¹⁾), with growth boosted by easy comparison on volume and strong enrichment of product mix, together with higher contribution from personalizations.

The increase in Engines⁽⁷⁾ revenues (Euro 45 million, up 118.0%, also at constant currency⁽¹⁾) was attributable to higher shipments to Maserati and, to a lesser extent, the rental of engines to other Formula 1 racing teams.

Increased Sponsorship, commercial and brand⁽⁸⁾ revenues (Euro 91 million, up 10.6% or 12.6% at constant currency⁽¹⁾) were attributable to the more favorable Formula 1 calendar and brand-related activities, partially offset by lower prior year ranking.

Currency – including translation and transaction impacts as well as foreign currency hedges – had a negative impact of Euro 30 million (mainly USD).

EBITDA⁽¹⁾ and EBIT

Q2 2021 EBITDA⁽¹⁾ tripled versus prior year and stood at Euro 386 million with an EBITDA⁽¹⁾ margin of 37.4%.

Q2 2021 EBIT was Euro 274 million versus Euro 23 million of prior year.

Volume was positive (Euro 144 million), reflecting shipments almost doubled versus prior year due to easy comparison.

The positive Mix / price variance performance (Euro 113 million) was driven by the strong contribution coming from the richer product mix thanks to the SF90 Stradale and the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2 along with personalizations.

Industrial costs / research and development expenses were in line with prior year, which included the full cost of employees’ paid days of absence during the Covid-19 production suspension.

SG&A increased Euro 4 million mainly reflecting communication and marketing activities of recent unveilings and lifestyle events.

Other increased Euro 24 million due to the more favorable Formula 1 calendar, higher contribution from brand-related and other supporting activities as well as from sales to Maserati, partially offset by lower prior year ranking.

Net financial charges in the quarter of Euro 10 million were substantially in line with Euro 11 million of the prior year.

The tax rate in the quarter was 22.0%, reflecting the current estimate of the benefit attributable to the Patent Box, the Allowance for Corporate Equity (ACE)⁽¹⁰⁾, deductions for eligible research and development costs, hyper and super-depreciation of machinery and equipment.

As a result, the Net profit for the period was Euro 206 million, significantly up versus prior year, and the Diluted earnings per share for the quarter reached Euro 1.11, compared to Euro 0.04 in Q2 2020.

Industrial free cash flow⁽¹⁾ for the quarter was Euro 113 million, driven by EBITDA⁽¹⁾, partially offset by capital expenditures⁽¹¹⁾ of Euro 166 million, an adverse working capital impact – due primarily to higher inventories as well as the reversal of the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2 advances received in 2019 – and higher tax payment mainly to refer to the new Patent Box regime.

Net Industrial Debt⁽¹⁾ as of June 30, 2021 was Euro 552 million, compared to Euro 420 million as of March 31, 2021. The increase was attributable to the dividend distribution⁽¹²⁾ of Euro 162 million and the share repurchase for a total of Euro 82 million, more than offsetting the positive industrial free cash flow generation in the quarter. Lease liabilities per IFRS 16 as of June 30, 2021 were Euro 61 million.

As of June 30, 2021, total available liquidity was Euro 1,689 million (Euro 1,730 million as of March 31, 2021), including undrawn committed credit lines of Euro 767 million.

Upward revised 2021 guidance on industrial free cash flow from approx. Euro 350 million to approx. Euro 450 million, subject to trading conditions unaffected by further Covid-19 pandemic restrictions and the following assumptions:

• Core business sustained by volume and mix
• Revenues from Formula 1 racing activities based on the announced calendar and reflecting lower 2020 ranking versus prior year
• Brand-related activities dealing with Covid-19 challenges
• Operational and marketing costs gradually resuming
• Improved net working capital sustaining industrial free cash flow thanks to the advances on the new special series and lower payments in connection with the cadence planned for our capital expenditures
