Basis for Financial Information

  • Please note that Cerved Information Solutions SpA (“CIS SpA”) was

incorporated on 14 March 2014 and holds a 100% stake in Cerved Group SpA (“CG SpA”) since 28 March 2014

  • In order to provide the market with complete financial information to reflect

the CIS SpA consolidated business operations through the entire first half of 2014, certain financial data contained in this presentation represents the aggregate of (i.) CG SpA for the period between 1 January 2014 and 30 June 2014, and (ii.) CIS SpA for the period between 14 March 2014 and 30 June 2014

  • On a consolidated basis, there are minor differences between the accounts of

CIS SpA and CG SpA, mainly related to costs related to CIS SpA’s status as a listed company, and the costs incurred to carry out the IPO of CIS SpA

  • Going forward, financial information will be provided to investors at two

different levels: CIS SpA (listed on the Milan Stock Exchange) and CG SpA (issuer of €530m of bonds)
