2016 Normalisations:

Euro 10.4 million, principally for consultancy in support of M&A operations carried out by
the Group, in addition to reorganisation charges.
The normalisation of Net financial charges regards the elimination of net financial income of
Euro 0.3 million, principally related to the Sterling hedge undertaken
for the acquisition of the
Daler-Rowney Lukas Group.
The normalisation of the 2016 Group Result concerns the above-stated normalisations, net of
the tax effect.
2015 Normalisations:
The normalisation of the 2015 EBITDA relates to non-recurring operating costs of approx.
Euro 5.8 million, principally for consultancy on the merger between F.I.L.A. S.p.A. and
Space S.p.A. and for Group M&A operations in 2015.
The normalisation of Net Financial Charges mainly concerns the Fair Value measurement of
Space S.p.A. equity at May 31, 2015 (Euro 45.8 million) and of market warrants at December
31, 2015 (Euro 5.2 million), offset by the Fair Value remeasurement of the
