Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
The Carraro Group
Carraro is an international industrial Group which is world leader in high-efficiency and eco-compatible power
transmission systems, with headquarters in Italy, in Campodarsego (Padova).
In line with the process of change begun in reaction to the crisis in 2009, at the beginning of 2013 Carraro has started a
project for the change of its organizational set-up. The new set-up is a further development in the organization of the
Business Unit, which in recent years has enabled the Group to properly focus on specific markets and applications,
with different risk profiles and targeted strategies.
The main feature of the reorganization is the merging of the two BUs - transmission systems and components - into a
single unit. This is a fundamental step forward in achieving the most from our core business, both in terms of
development synergies for new products and for the integration of production processes. This broad-ranging structure
also maintains a vertical focus on specific markets and sectors.
As a result the new Carraro Drive Tech Business Area, with its more dynamic configuration, can tackle its target
markets with a more flexible response and products with a greater added value.
In detail, the three Business Areas today are the followings:
- Carraro Drive Tech (Transmission systems and components) is specialised in the design, manufacture and sale of
transmission systems (axles, transmissions and drives) mainly for agricultural and construction equipment, and also
markets a wide range of components and gears for very diverse sectors, from the automotive industry to light power
tools, material handling, agricultural applications and construction equipment.
- Carraro Divisione Agritalia (Vehicles) designs and manufactures special tractors (from 60 to 100 hp) for third-party
brands, and namely John Deere, Massey Ferguson and Claas. Agritalia also provides engineering services for the design
of innovative tractor ranges.
- Elettronica Santerno (Power electronics) designs, develops, manufactures and markets inverters (electronic power
converters) mainly for the photovoltaic industry and industrial automation (HVAC, water treatment, lifting systems
and large-scale transport).
Reference markets
Agriculture
In the first half of 2013, the global market for agriculture continued its growth trend, with potential further
improvements in the medium-term, especially in countries that are developing fast.
Overall turnover in the APAC area (Asia Pacific) is down, whilst demand for tractors of over 100 HP continues to be
good.
In Europe things are essentially stable, particularly in Northern and Central Europe, with a slow-down in the South.
The shrinking of the Indian market appears to be over, with a possible slight increase in the second half of the current
year. The Turkish market has made significant progress and seems to be on the verge of new growth, which should
continue over the coming months. In South America too, the market is positive, with good fundamentals in the
medium term.
In the United States the economic trend shows a weak growth, which should continue until the end of the year.
From its Indian plant, Carraro Drive Tech has successfully launched the production of a new family of T10.0
transmissions, broadening the range of products supplied in order to meet the growing demand for outsourcing from
various OEMs and entering a market segment where the Group was previously not present.
Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
Construction equipment
In the first half of 2013, demand for earthmoving and construction equipment fell, most markedly in the mining
equipment sector.
China continues its negative trend with prospects still uncertain for the end of the year, but which could pick up if the
government takes further steps to invest in infrastructure and support the liquidity of leading OEMs.
The Indian market continues to be sluggish due to the economic uncertainty pending next year's general election.
Demand in Europe is trending down. North America is showing signs of recovery in the private housing market, which
generates demand in Utility machinery, especially for rental. The mining sector is deep in recession and is not expected
to recover in the short term.
As a result of planned infrastructure investments over the next five years, Brazil, together with Turkey, is one of the
fastest growing areas for construction equipment.
In the Brazilian market, Carraro Drive Tech has packed its current range of transmissions with innovative content (new
ECOlogy MODE and Direct Drive technology) and has further extended the product range with entry level and
premium versions.
Renewable energy
In the first half of 2013, the photovoltaic market further globalized, with new markets in countries that have decided to
invest in this energy source. Within this framework, Santerno obtained significant orders internationally for the supply
of inverters in photovoltaic plant, including 19 MW in India, 2.4 MW in Vermont USA (inverters that can be fully
integrated with transportable (skid) platforms, suitable for tough climatic conditions), the first part of a large and
important order in Australia, 13 MW in Romania for two different plants and 126 MW in Thailand, the largest plant
under construction in the Asia Pacific area.
In Italy, Santerno has supplied inverters to a 20 MW plant in Salerno, whilst the Quinto Conto Energia providing
incentives for the construction of photovoltaic plant has now ended; in the next six months the residential market will
be able to continue only if specific tax relief is provided.
In the second half of the year, there are good prospects in South East Asia and the American region, which are growth
markets in terms of the MW to be constructed, but where prices continue to fall.
Industrial Automation
In the Industrial Automation sector, the worldwide market is growing slowly. With the aim of expanding in the
segment, in just four months, Santerno obtained DNV (Det Norske Veritas) certification for its complete range of
PENTA inverters, immediately afterwards signing an important multi-year supply contract with a large Scandinavian
distributor in the sector of marine applications.
Automotive
The Automotive market will grow in 2013 by 3.9%, in particular in the United States and Asia; unlike the premium
segment, in which the Group plays an active role, which was a little down in the first part of the year. This influenced
the turnover trend in the sector, which is down 24% in the first half of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012.
PowerTools and Gardening
Demand in the PowerTools (electrical tools) segment in 2013 is essentially stable, with signs of a slight uptick here and
there, particularly in the APAC area. The leading players are seeking to increase their market share in order to
consolidate a very fragmented market. The Gardening (professional gardening) market continues its positive trend
with excellent growth in Asia and the Pacific, and in the consumer segment. Demand in both sectors should increase
slightly in 2013 (+5% compared to 2012).
Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
The turnover achieved in these sectors in the first half of 2013 was down 16% compared to the same period of last year.
Market trends as illustrated above are consistent with Group forecasts for 2013. This was mainly due to increasing
market share, the acquisition of new clients and the development of innovative products.
Summary of the first half of 20131
Profitability for the first half of 2013 has been positively impacted by the launch of new products with high
performance and technology, by penetration into new markets and the acquisition of new clients, supported by actions
taken within the framework of the Carraro Group Reorganization Plan, begun at the end of 2012, focussed on the
reorganization of industrial activities with the re-insourcing of various processes previously transferred abroad, the
continuation of the Partnership project with leading suppliers and for the reduction of fixed costs.
The decisions taken by the Group have positively influenced the opinion of banks, leading to important agreements
during the 6-month period: specifically, a new Debt Rearrangement Agreement was signed providing greater financial
flexibility, aimed at supporting the Group investment plan (150 million Euros in three years) and an agreement was
reached with the finance company Friulia SpA leading to an increase in share capital, reserved for them, of the
subsidiary SIAP SpA for the purpose of guaranteeing the resources required to support the development of an
integrated industrial hub in Friuli.
Starting in 2013, the Group analyzes its performance on the basis of the new organizational structure, so in addition to
showing economic and equity data by Business Area, it was necessary to reconstruct values as at 30 June 2012 for
comparison purposes.
As illustrated in the introduction, in the first half of 2013, despite the fall in turnover, the Carraro Group achieved a
significant improvement in profitability compared to the same period last year. In particular, positive performance has
been led by Drive Tech (mechanical engineering); whilst Elettronica Santerno has reversed the trend, significantly
improving its profitability compared to first half of 2012, thanks to the recovery of sales outside Europe, reaching the
break even point at the operational level in June.
Particularly important has been Group performance in Q2 2013, in which turnover, EBIT and EBITDA have all
considerably improved on Q1. Turnover in Q2 was up 25% on Q1; The EBIT incidence to turnover ratio was up from
1.9% as at 31 March 2013 to 4.6% in Q2; also up was the EBITDA to turnover ratio (from 5.7% to 7.7%).
Consolidated turnover as at 30 June 2013, about 88% from sales abroad, was 449.166 million Euros, down 5.3% on
474.340 million Euros in the first half of 2012. The operational business areas in the mechanical engineering sector
achieved a turnover which was down 7.7% as at 30 June 2012 whilst Elettronica Santerno returned a turnover up
33.8% due to the important orders obtained in the previous year.
Group EBITDA in the first half of 2013 was 30.526 million Euros (6.8% of turnover) significantly up (+25.1%)
compared to 24.395 million Euros (5.1% or turnover) in the first half of 2012. EBITDA in the business areas for
mechanical engineering as at 30 June 2013 is 33.268 million Euros (7.9% of turnover), up 14.8% compared to 28.980
million Euros (6.3% of turnover) for the first half of 2012, whilst Elettronica Santerno returned a positive EBITDA of
469 thousand Euros (1.3% of turnover), reversing the trend compared to the negative value of 2.995 million Euros (-
10.7% of turnover) as at 30 June 2012.
Consolidated EBIT as at 30 June 2013 is 15.325 million Euros (3.4% of turnover), up 78.0% compared to the 8.609
million Euros (1.8% of turnover) as at 30 June 2012. EBIT for traditional business is 20.444 million Euros (4.9% of

turnover) compared to 15.522 million Euros (3.4% of turnover) as at 30 June 2012; EBIT for Santerno is negative in the
amount of 751 thousand Euros (-2.0% of turnover) compared to a negative value of 4.205 million Euros (-15.0% of
turnover) in the first half of 2012.
The net Group profit/ (loss) as at 30 June 2013, distorted by taxation for the period, is back in profit in the amount of
152 thousand Euros, compared to the loss of 5.498 million Euros as at 30 June 2012. Earnings before tax are positive in
the amount of 6.323 million Euros (1.4% of turnover) compared to a loss of 317 thousand Euros (-0.1%) for the first
half of 2012.
The net financial position continues to improve, standing negatively as at 30 June 2013 at 258.190 million Euros
compared to 277.668 million Euros as at 31 March 2013 up, as anticipated, compared to the 213.703 million Euros of
31 December 2012 due to the effects of reabsorbing of actions managed at the end of 2012 in order to normalise the
trend in net working capital.
2013 figures and facts
In January, on the occasion of the Ag Connect USA Exhibition, the most important event of its kind in North America
dedicated to agricultural equipment, which took place in Kansas City, Missouri, Carraro Drive Tech launched the new
T10 transmission for tractors up to 120 HP, which is proving very successful due to high-performance technical
configuration.
In February an important agreement was signed between Carraro Drive Tech and Agco, one of the world's leading
three manufacturers of agricultural machinery. This agreement, for 5 years and with an overall value of 25 million
Euros, is for the supply of transmission systems for a new range of tractors which will be manufactured in the
Changzhou plant in China. On the basis of the agreement, Carraro Drive Tech will supply different types of integrated
front axles with a drop box, for Massey Ferguson series BX200 tractors fitted with 80 - 120 HP engines; these tractors
are designed both for the Chinese market and for export in the United States, the Far East and Africa.
Within the framework of the project called Agritalia Production System, for the first time, in the month of March,
training was carried out for clients and suppliers of Agritalia, as well as for internal personnel, with the contribution of
the Kaizen Institute. In addition to presenting the basic concept of change which characterises the new Agritalia
production process, the training led to the creation of two improvement workshops for the production line. Various
managers from leading companies cooperated with line operators to find improved or innovative solutions to organise
material flow.
In April Carraro Drive Tech staged a number of events:
- during the Bauma Exhibition in Munich, the world's leading construction equipment show, the most highly-
developed products were presented for earthmoving applications, with particular attention dedicated to
epicycloidal drives for tracked vehicles and winches. Particular interest was shown in the new range of
transmissions, partly due to the new technology dedicated to fuel saving and operational efficiency: ECOlogy
MODE and Direct Drive. These two innovations with advanced technology for the improvement of the
efficiency of transmissions is now available for all product classes: from the new TC1.0 to the consolidated
TLB1 and TLB2.
- in addition, a commercial agreement was signed with XCMG, one of the most important Chinese
manufacturers of earthmoving equipment, for the supply of a series of epicycloidal drives for the largest
tracked crane in the world (model XGC88000). In detail, Carraro is present in the vehicle both with the
reduction gears and the travel drives as well as the winch drives, with an overall value of about 2 million Euros
per vehicle. These drives were designed and manufactured in the German plant of O&K Antriebstechnik, the
Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
Group company known at international level for its skills in products destined for high-range applications
(heavy duty).
In May the following important events took place:
- On the occasion of the SNEC, an exhibition organised in Shanghai in China - the world's leading event in the
photovoltaic sector in terms of the number of visitors - Santerno, presented to the market the new Sunway
TG Outdoor range, which attracted great interest from operators in the sector from all over China and South
East Asia.
- in the same period Agritalia began supplying its new Powertrain to its Turkish client Basak. Basak is a brand
of the Sanko Group, a historic client of Carraro Drive Tech. The cooperation between Agritalia and Drive Tech
created this opportunity. Agritalia will supply the entire powertrain (integrated transmission systems
complete with engines) to this new client, expected to be about 40 tractors per month with prospects for
further growth.
In June a new important step forward was taken by Carraro After Sales & Spare Parts which, a year after signing
a partnership with CEVA Logistics, for the operational management of the spare parts platform in Italy, has now signed
an important agreement with ToolsGroup, a multinational company specialised in the development of systems and
solutions for the planning of the services to clients with the reduction of logistics costs, in order to fully develop its own
supply chain with a view to integration.
In the same month, Santerno signed an important agreement with Energy Absolute, a Thai company active in the
cogeneration and biodiesel sector, which with this project enters into the renewable energy sector, for the supply of an
integrated system of inverters destined for the largest photovoltaic plant in South-East Asia, to be built in Thailand, in
Nakorn Sawan province. Due to this agreement, Santerno will supply a series of 3-phase inverters in outdoor cabinet
format, particularly suitable for tough climatic conditions. The same kind of product that was used in the photovoltaic
park under construction in Calexico, in the southern California desert, will now be fitted to platforms in the rain forest.
At the end of June, preliminary activities were completed for the start-up of the new SAP system (T4T project) for the
two SIAP plants in Maniago and Gorizia (over 300 people involved). Following the migration of the data base and
completion of start-up tests, these two plants will be the first to activate the new ERP, which will then be gradually
extended to the entire Group, with improvements expected at the level of operational efficiency. The Go-Live on 1 July
2013 was successful.
Significant events in the first half of 2013 On 13 February 2013, the shareholders' meetings of Carraro Drive Tech SpA and Gear World SpA passed resolutions by
majority vote, to merge Gear World SpA into Carraro Drive Tech SpA. The merger was completed with registration of
the deed on 29 April 2013.
On 14 May 2013, the Carraro Group signed a Debt Rearrangement Agreement with leading banks; the previous
Framework Agreement expired as at 31 December 2012. The new Agreement is for the rearrangement of medium/long-
term debt and renews the credit lines for short-term debt for 24 months, with the redefinition of financial parameters.
On 28 June 2013, taking effect on 1 July 2013, the Shareholders' Meeting of SIAP SpA passed a resolution to increase
its share capital by conferral by the shareholder Carraro Drive Tech SpA of the going concern comprising the Gorizia
plant. This operation, which includes a subsequent increase in capital of 3 million Euros, reserved to the shareholder
Friulia SpA, will lead to the creation of an integrated production hub in Friuli and will benefit from the ongoing alliance
between the Carraro Group and Friulia.
Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013

of the Stock Exchange (FTSE MIB).

Nothing to report.
BUSINESS OUTLOOK FOR THE CURRENT YEAR
On the basis of the current orders portfolio, the second half of the year should produce turnover in line with the first six
months of 2013. Turnover for the Drive Tech Business Area is expected to be slightly up in the second half of the year
compared to the first half, although the sectors will be subject to different trends. For Agritalia, market expectations
suggest an increase in the number of tractors sold of about 100 units compared to the same period in 2012, due to
increased demand from Turkey. For the Elettronica Santerno Business Area, a slight increase in turnover is expected
compared to the first half of the year, due to the acquisition of new sales contracts.
Margins for the second half of 2013 will be partially influenced by the changed mixture of products in the turnover,
with a slight downturn in the growth trend shown in the first half of the year, but still above the results for the same
period in the previous year.
Financial expenses in the second half of the year will be negatively impacted by the variation in interest rates and fees
arising from the Debt Rearrangement Agreement with banks.
Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013

In analysing turnover by geographic segment, it should be noted that the Group mainly sells to the production sites of
OEMs that may reside in different countries from the nations of end users of their products.
In the light of the figures set out in the table above, Group sales are increasingly focussed outside Europe, in particular
on North America (+15.0% compared to the first half of 2012), Turkey (+61.9%) and South America (+9.6%). Growth in
Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
sales in the other areas outside the EU (+71.2%) is mainly from South Africa (+7 million Euros), thanks to the turnover
of Elettronica Santerno in that area.
As at 30 June 2013, sales to countries outside Europe were over 50% of total turnover.

Net financial expenses total 8.618 million Euros (1.9% of turnover) slightly lower than the 9.076 million Euros (1.9% of
turnover) of the first half of 2012. The trend in financial expenses benefited in the first half of 2013 from a reduced
average financial debt compared to the first half of 2012 and, over the first three months of the year, from interest rates
in line with the previous year. Beginning in April 2013 new interest rates apply to the loans covered by the Debt
Rearrangement Agreement.

Performance and results of the
Carraro Group Business Areas
Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
Drivelines & Components - Drive Tech Business Area1
Starting from the beginning of 2013, the previous separate Business Units, Drivelines and Components, were brought
under the same new business area called Carraro Drive Tech which now includes all transmission systems (axles,
transmissions and epicycloidal drives) mainly for agricultural machinery, earthmoving equipment and components
and gears for similar industrial sectors, from earthmoving equipment to automobiles, from gardening and electric
tools to agricultural applications and materials handling.
In order to make the results comparable with the previous year, figures for the first half of 2012 was reconstructed in
line with the new business model.
Revenues from sales as at 30 June 2013 amount to 368.415 million Euros compared to 407.328 million Euros in the
first half of 2012, down 9.6%.
The breakdown of turnover by geographical area shows the increasing focus on markets outside Europe, which are at
the same level as previous year, particularly South America, China and India.
Overall turnover from foreign markets as at 30 June 2013 was 89.2% of the total turnover from the business area,
against 87.2% as at 30 June 2012.
In terms of sectors of application, the Agricultural and Materials Handling sectors continued their positive trends
whilst there was a sharp drop in the Construction Equipment, Mining and Automotive sectors, compared with the
same period last year.
Turnover for Q2 2013 was slightly below forecast due to the sudden fall in the Mining sector.
Variable margins, although penalized by lower turnover, grew compared to the same period last year, both in absolute
terms and in terms of ratio to turnover, due to continuous improvements in industrial processes, and in the efficiency
of the procurement of direct materials as well as the start-up of the activities of insourcing, leading to reduced costs for
processing by third parties.
Industrial costs remained slightly below the previous year and in line with expectations, as did overheads; leading to an
increased EBIT compared to the first half of 2012 despite lower turnover, as previously pointed out.
EBITDA as at 30 June 2013 is 31.415 million Euros (8.5% of turnover), up compared to 27.833 million Euros (6.8% of
turnover) as at 30 June 2012.
EBIT for the first half of 2013 is 19.193 million Euros (5.2% of turnover), compared to 14.928 million Euros (3.7% of
turnover) for the first half of 2012.
The net profit of 6,830 million Euros (1.9% of turnover) are up 4.1 million Euros compared to the profits of 2.740
million Euros (0.7% of turnover) as at 30 June 2012.
In terms of the net financial position, the improvement over 30 June 2012 is 209.685 million Euros compared to
161.730 million Euros and 140.655 million Euros compared to 31 December 2012. Debt was up due to the actions
carried out at the end of 2012 to normalise net working capital.

Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
Vehicles – Agritalia Business Area1
The first half of 2013 ends with a turnover of 53.190 million Euros, up 8.0% compared to the 49.254 million Euros for
the same period last year. The sale of tractors reached 1,916 units in line with the 1,915 in the first half of 2012; the
increase in turnover comes mainly from the new Powertrain product line on sale since April 2013 to the Turkish client
Basak, with which the Divisione Agritalia started their important cooperation.
The variable margin for the 6-month period is 15% of turnover, slightly up compared to the 13.7% last year, due to the
continuous improvement in the management of production processes.
Specific overheads are slightly up compared to the first half of 2012, due in particular to preparation costs incurred for
the launch of the new tractor platform, scheduled for the beginning of 2014. Profitability is nonetheless up compared to
the first half of 2013, in particular EBITDA stands at 1.853 million Euros (3.5% of turnover), up 1.147 million Euros
(2.3% of turnover) as at 30 June 2012. EBIT for the first half of 2013 stands at 1.251 million Euros (2.4% of turnover),
compared to 594 thousand Euros (1.2% of turnover) for the same period in 2012.
The net profits for the period, amounting to 1.103 million Euros (2.1% of turnover), are up compared to the figure of
508 thousand Euros (1.0% of turnover) for the period ended 30 June 2012.
The net financial position as at 30 March 2013 was positive amounting to 14.875 million Euros compared to 14.784
million Euros for the first half of 2012 and 13.001 million Euros as at 31 December 2012. Compared to 31 March 2013,
when the net financial position stood at 7.773 million Euros, the situation has improved due to the careful management
of net working capital.

Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
Electronics – Elettronica Santerno Business Area1
During the first half of 2013, intense activities were carried out to develop foreign markets, particularly the United
States, China, Thailand, Australia, India and South Africa. In this way, Santerno was able to drastically reduce its
dependence on the Italian market as at 30 June 2013, which now represents only 21% of turnover compared to 70% in
2012.
In June 2013, the two main orders acquired at the end of 2012 in the United States and South Africa are about 50%
towards completion, whilst the new agreements in China and Thailand (where Santerno is helping to build the largest
plant in Asia) have now begun to be implemented.
For the sector of industrial applications, an important agreement has been reached with a leading North-European
operator for the development and sale of products destined for marine applications, a completely new market for
Elettronica Santerno; the first phase of DNV certification of products ended successfully and this will contribute to
improving sales in the second half of 2013.
In general, the market trend for the sector of industrial applications was positive in the first half of the year; the
forecast for the second half of the year is similarly positive.
The first half of 2013 ends with a turnover of 37.575 million Euros, up 33.8% compared to the 28.078 million Euros for
the same period last year.
EBITDA as at 30 December 2013 was positive amounting to 469 thousand Euros (+1.3% of turnover) compared to a
negative value of 2.995 million Euros (-10.8% of turnover) as at 30 June 2012.
EBIT for the first half of 2013 is negative in the amount of 751 thousand Euros (-2.0% of turnover) compared to a
negative value of 4.206 million Euros (-15.0% of turnover) as at 30 June 2012.
A net loss was recorded amounting to 1.393 million Euros (-3.7 % of turnover) compared to a loss of 4.944 million
Euros (-17.6% of turnover) for the first half of 2012.
The budget for the second half of the year is confirmed, with the aim of braking even by the end of the year.
The net financial position as at 30 June 2013 was negative amounting to 17.379 million Euros compared to 6.444
million Euros as at 31 December 2012 and 7.048 million Euros as at 30 June 2012, due to the effect of absorbing cash
and cash equivalents arising from the trend in net working capital resulting from the need to set up storage facilities for
important orders in the United States, South Africa and Asian countries. This effect will decrease at the end of the year
due to collections for these order.

The foreign companies are included in the consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with the principles described in the notes that follow. Amounts in these financial statements are given in thousand Euro, while amounts in the notes are indicated in million Euro (mln). The Carraro Group companies are principally engaged in the manufacture and marketing of drive systems developed for agricultural tractors, construction equipment, material moving machinery, light commercial vehicles and automobiles, and electronic control and power systems. Carraro S.p.A., as the parent company, has functions of strategic guidance, control and coordination of the three Carraro Group Business Areas: Carraro Drive Tech (under the control of Carraro Drive Tech S.p.A.), Carraro Divisione Agritalia (division part of Carraro S.p.A. itself) e Elettronica Santerno (under the control of Elettronica Santerno S.p.A.).

The present condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been drawn up in abridged form in compliance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”. As such, it do not include all the information required by the consolidated annual financial statements; they must be read together with the consolidated annual financial statements drawn up for the year ended on 31 December 2012. In preparing the present condensed interim financial statements, drawn up in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” the same accounting standards have been used as adopted in preparing the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2012, with the exception of that described in the paragraph below entitled “Accounting standards, amendments and interpretations coming into effect as from 1 January 2013”. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements were prepared assuming that the company is a going concern. The preparation of the interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions based on the best information available, which affect the value of revenues, costs, assets and liabilities on the statements and the disclosure in relation to potential assets and liabilities as of the date of the interim financial statements. Some of the measurement processes, and in particular the more complex processes, such as calculating any impairment of non-current assets, are generally only carried out in a complete manner upon preparing the annual financial statements, when all information as may be necessary is available. This is without prejudice to cases where there are indicators of impairment that require an immediate assessment of loss of value.

Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
3. Consolidation criteria and accounting principles 3.1 Consolidation criteria The figures are consolidated using the line by line method, that is assuming the entire amount of the assets, liabilities, costs and earnings of the individual companies, regardless of the stock held in the company. Subsidiaries are consolidated using financial statement formats in line with the layout adopted by the parent company and compiled in accordance with common accounting standards, as applied for Carraro S.p.A. The carrying amount of consolidated equity interests, held by Carraro S.p.A. or by other companies within the consolidation scope, was offset by the relevant amount of shareholders’ equity in the subsidiary companies. The amount of shareholders’ equity and the net profit/(loss) of these third-party shareholders are shown in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and Income Statement respectively. Payable and receivables, income and expenditure and all operations undertaken between the companies included within the consolidation scope have been eliminated, including dividends distributed within the Group. Profits not yet realised and capital gains and losses deriving from operations between companies of the Group have also been eliminated. Intra-group losses that indicate impairment are recognised in the consolidated financial statements. Balances in foreign currencies have been converted into Euro using the exchange rate of the end of the period for assets and liabilities, historical exchange rates for shareholders’ equity items and average exchange rates in the period for the income statement. Exchange differences resulting from this conversion method are shown in a specific shareholders’ equity item entitled “Foreign currency translation reserve”.

3.2 Accounting standards and measurement criteria Accounting standards, amendments and interpretations coming into effect as from 1st January 2013 Standards relevant to the Group for the first half of 2013 - IAS 19 Revised “Employee Benefits", retrospective application from 1 January 2013. The Carraro Group opted for the early application, from the Financial Statements as at 31 December 2012, of IAS 19 Revised, according to which actuarial gains/losses are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income and financial income/expenses are classified as interest costs. Moreover, net financial expenses are determined using the discount rate adopted at the beginning of the current reporting period to measure the defined benefit plan obligation. During the first-time adoption of IAS 19, the Carraro Group opted to recognise actuarial components in the income statement under Personnel costs; the amendment, endorsed by the European Commission in June 2012, requires the posting of actuarial gains/losses directly under Shareholders' Equity, with immediate recognition in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Adoption of IAS 19 Revised by the company, considering the obligation for retrospective application as required by IAS 8, gave rise to the following effects:
- recognition in a reserve of Shareholders' equity of actuarial gains/losses, and classification of interest costs under the item Net financial income/expenses;
- restatement of the item Personnel costs (net of actuarial gains/losses classified in the Statement of Comprehensive Income) and of Financial Income/Expenses (including the item interest cost) in the 2012 interim Income Statement.
The following effects may therefore be identified in these financial statements:
- the actuarial loss in the first half 2012 Income Statement, amounting to 0.13 million Euros, under Personnel Costs, was not recognised; the negative change, for the same amount, under the Provision for discounting employee benefits in the Statement of Financial Position and the item Change in the Provision for discounting employee benefits in the Statement of Comprehensive Income were not recognised; moreover, the item Interest cost, amounting to 0.27 million Euros was reclassified from the item Personnel Costs to the item Financial Expenses.
- the actuarial loss in the first half 2013 Income Statement, amounting to 0.3 million Euros, was not recognised under Personnel Costs; the negative change, amounting to 0.19 million Euros (net of taxes) of the Provision
Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
for discounting employee benefits in the Statement of Financial Position and the item Change in the Provision for discounting employee benefits in the Statement of Comprehensive Income were not recognised;
- IFRS 13 “Fair value measurement” which clarifies how fair value shall be measured for the purposes of financial statements, and applies all IFRSs that require the fair value measurement or presentation of information based on the fair value (forward-looking application as from 1 January 2013).
Accounting standards, amendments and interpretations not relevant or not yet applicable and not adopted in advance by the Group - Amendment to IAS 12 – "Income Taxes - determination of deferred tax assets on real estate investments"
(retrospective application from 1 January 2012). - Amendment to IAS 32 – "Financial Instruments: presentation” (retroactive application from 1 January 2014). - Amendment to IFRS 7 – "Financial Instruments: additional disclosure - transfers of financial assets" (retroactive
application as from 1 January 2012). - IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” which replaces SIC 12 “Consolidation: special purpose entities
(special purpose vehicles) and parts of IAS 27 “Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements” (retroactive application as from 1 January 2014).
- IFRS 11 “Joint Arrangements” which replaces IAS 31 “Interests in Joint Ventures” and SIC 13 “Jointly Controlled Entities” (retroactive application as from 1 January 2014).
- IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interest in Other Entities” which is a new standard on additional disclosure for all types of interest (retroactive application as from 1 January 2014).
Intra-group transactions In accordance with the Consob recommendations of 20 February 1997 (DAC/97001574) and 27 February 1998 (DAC/98015375) we can confirm that: a) intragroup transactions and transactions with related parties which took place during the period, gave rise to
trade, financial or consultancy-related relationships, and were carried out under standard market terms, in the financial interest of the individual companies involved in the transactions;
b) no atypical or unusual operations were implemented as compared with normal business management; c) the interest rates and terms applied (paid and received) in financial relationships between the various companies
are in line with market terms. 4. Information on business segments and geographical areas Information on Operating Segments is given on the basis of the internal reporting provided to the highest operating decision-making level. For operational purposes, the group manages and controls its business on the basis of the type of products supplied. Three operating segments were identified, corresponding to the following Business Areas:
- Carraro Drive Tech (Transmission systems and components): specialised in the design, manufacture and sale of transmission systems (axles, transmissions and planetary drives) mainly for agricultural and construction equipment, and also markets a wide range of components and gears for very diverse sectors, from the automotive industry to light power tools, material handling, agricultural applications and construction equipment;
- Carraro Divisione Agritalia (Vehicles): designs and manufactures special tractors (from 60 to 100 hp) for third-party brands;
- Elettronica Santerno (Power electronics) designs, develops, manufactures and markets inverters (electronic power converters) mainly for the photovoltaic industry and industrial automation (HVAC, water treatment, lifting systems and large-scale transport).
The item “other segments” brings together the Group’s operations not allocated to the three segments, and comprises the central holding and management activities of the Carraro Group. The Management examines separately the results achieved by the operating segments in order to take decisions on the allocation of resources and on assessment of the results.

Net financial expenses totalled 8.618 million Euros (1.9% of turnover) a slight reduction compared to the 9.076 million Euros (1.9% of turnover) of the first half of 2012. The trend in financial expenses benefited in the first half of 2013 from a reduced average financial debt compared to the first half of 2012 and, over the first three months of the year, from interest rates in line with the previous year. Beginning in April 2013 new interest rates apply to the loans covered by the Debt Rearrangement Agreement. The net exchange differences as at 30 June 2013 were negative at -0.384 million Euros and include, as well as financial items, also the MTM (Market-to-Market) effects of the measurement at fair value of derivative instruments.

Current taxes Tax on the income of Italian companies is calculated at 27.50%, for IRES (corporation tax), and at 3.90% for IRAP (regional business tax) on the respective taxable income for the period. Taxes for the other foreign companies are calculated at the rates in force in the various countries. Tax consolidation expense and income Carraro S.p.A., Carraro Drive Tech S.p.A., Elettronica Santerno S.p.A. and Energy Engineering S.r.l. adhere to the tax consolidation area of the parent company Finaid S.p.A. The charges/income deriving from the transfer of the IRES taxable base are booked under current taxes. According to the regulations of the Tax Consolidation Agreement, companies of the Carraro Group have the right to “relief” for use of the tax losses of companies controlled by Finaid, other than those belonging to the Carraro Group. This “relief” amounts to 3% of the tax losses of the other companies of the Finaid Consolidation area possibly offset with the taxable amounts of Carraro Group companies. The regulations also provide for a mechanism of priority offsetting of the positive and negative taxable amounts between Carraro Group companies with respect to offsetting with the other companies of the Finaid Consolidation. The same mechanism is provided for with reference to the non-deductible expenses as an effect of the Thin Cap Rule. The fiscal consolidation in place between Gear World S.p.A. and its subsidiaries for the period 2011-2013 was discontinued with effect from 30 April 2013 due to the merger of Gear World S.p.A. in Drive Tech S.p.A.

Investments in land and buildings were made in particular by Carraro Argentina, Elettronica Santerno S.p.A., Carraro Technologies and Siap S.p.A. The main investments in plant and machinery were made by MiniGears S.p.A. Poggiofiorito division, O&K Gmbh and Siap S.p.A. The increases in industrial equipment relate mainly to purchases of fusion moulds and tools by Carraro Drive Tech S.p.A., MiniGears S.p.A. and Carraro India. The investments in other goods relate to the purchase of various office materials by Carraro S.p.A., Elettronica Santerno S.p.A. and O&K Gmbh. The increases in amounts relative to Investments in progress and deposits is primarily owing to investments currently under way in Carraro China, Carraro India and O&K Gmbh. The properties of the Group have mortgage loans secured against them for a total of 33.4 million Euros, of which 23.4 million Euros on the properties of Carraro S.p.A., 2.0 million Euros on the properties of Siap S.p.A. and 8 million Euros on the properties of Carraro India Pvt Ltd.

Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
Other current financial assets They include the cash flow hedge derivatives for 1.56 million Euros. The amount refers to the fair value calculated as at 30.06.2013 on current instruments on currencies. As described in detail in the section on derivative financial instruments (Paragraph 9), gains or losses deriving from hedging instruments are recognised in the consolidated comprehensive income statement and accumulated in a specific shareholders’ equity reserve for the efficient part, while the remaining (inefficient) portion is recognised in the consolidated income statement. Deferred tax assets and liabilities (Note 11) The carrying amount of net deferred tax assets recognised as at 30 June 2013 was 25.6 million Euros (26.0 million Euros as at 31 December 2012). Deferred tax assets include the benefits associated with retained tax losses, insofar as it is likely that there will be adequate future taxable profits against which these losses can be used in a reasonably short period. Tax losses for which it was decided not to recognise deferred tax assets as at 30 June 2013 amounted to 95.3 million Euros (89.8 million Euros as at 31.12.2012) with a tax effect of 26.5 million Euros (24.9 million Euros as at 31.12.2012). It was also not considered prudent to recognise deferred tax assets with reference to temporarily non-deductible financial expenses for a taxable income of 13.8 million Euros (14 million Euros as at 31.12.2012), with a tax effect of 3.8 million Euros (3.9 million Euros as at 31.12.2012).

the corresponding carrying amounts of the equity investments and consolidation adjustments. Other IAS/IFRS reserves It contains the values derived from the application of the criterion foreseen for the cash flow hedges for negative 1.044 million Euros.
Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
Foreign currency translation reserve This reserve, of 11.210 million Euros is used to record the exchange differences deriving from the conversion into Euros of the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries. The change to the reserve (negative for 8.988 million Euros as at 31.12.2012 and negative for 11.210 million Euros as at 30.06.2013) particularly derives from the great changes recorded during the period of the Argentine Peso, the Chinese Renminbi and the Indian Rupee.

The Carraro Group has available short term banking credit facilities for a total of 187.910 million Euros, 119.536 million Euros used. These facilities may be used for current account overdrafts and short-term loans. Medium- and long-term bank credit facilities amount to a total of 233.562 million Euros, where 214.72 million Euros are used (medium- and long-term portion and portion due within the year). On 14 May 2013, the Carraro Group signed a Debt Rearrangement Agreement with leading banks; the previous Framework Agreement expired as at 31 December 2012. The new Agreement is for the rearrangement of medium/long-term debt and renews the credit lines for short-term debt for 24 months, with the redefinition of covenants. On the basis of the Debt Rearrangement Agreement signed with banks, the first verification of compliance with the covenants will be carried out based on the financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2013. Fair Value The fair value of medium- and long-term financial liabilities, taking account of the fact that these are almost exclusively for variable-rate funding and that the terms being renegotiated with the banking counterparties are in line with the average levels for the market and the segment – even considering the residual volatility of the markets and the relative uncertainty in identifying “reference” conditions – as measured is not significantly different overall from the carrying amounts. Management of capital The Carraro Group’s main management objective is to ensure that a sound credit rating is maintained, together with adequate levels of the capital indicators so as to support its activities and maximise value for the shareholders. The Carraro Group manages and modifies the capital structure in line with changes in the economic conditions. To maintain or change the capital structure, the Group can adjust the dividends paid to the shareholders, redeem the capital or issue new shares.

The severance indemnity, calculated according to current Italian laws, is treated for accounting purposes as a defined-benefit fund and as such is recalculated at the end of each accounting period according to a statistical-actuarial criterion which also takes account of the effects of financial discounting. The actuarial valuation of this obligation is carried out according to the actuarial criterion of the “projected unit credit method” with the support of the data issued by ISTAT, the INPS and the ANIA. The parameters used are as follows: 1) annual discount rate: 3.0%, 2) personnel rotation rate 5%, 3) annual inflation index 2%, 4) advances rate 2%, 5) remuneration increase rate 3%. As from the 2012 Financial Statements, the accounting treatment of employee benefits recognised in the financial statements complies with IAS 19 Revised for defined benefit plans; for further details, see section 3.2. Termination benefits are benefits to employees regulated by the laws in force in Italy and recognised in the financial statements of Italian companies.

7. Commitments and risks No significant events occurred as worthy of note. 8. Transactions with related parties (Note 21) The Carraro Group is controlled directly by Finaid S.p.A., which as at 30.06.2013 held 64.9736% of the shares outstanding. Carraro S.p.A., Carraro Drive Tech S.p.A., Elettronica Santerno S.p.A. and Energy Engineering S.r.l. adhere to the tax consolidation area of the parent company Finaid S.p.A. The charges/income deriving from the transfer of the IRES taxable base are booked under current taxes. According to the regulations of the Tax Consolidation Agreement, companies of the Carraro Group have the right to “relief” for use of the tax losses of companies controlled by Finaid, other than those belonging to the Carraro Group.

Interim Financial Report as at 30 June 2013
In relation to the positioning in the hierarchy of fair values pursuant to IFRS 7 par. 27 the financial instruments described are classifiable as level 2; there were no transfers of level during the period.
The fair values as at 30 June 2013 of financial instruments on exchange rates were calculated using the forward exchange rate method. The counterparties with which the contracts are stipulated are leading national and international banking institutions. The financial instruments on currencies are used, on a basis consistent with the financial risk management policy adopted by the group, to hedge the risks deriving from exchange rate fluctuations and concern sales volumes compared with the budget exchange rate and the collections and payment of short and medium-term receivables and payables with respect to the historical value. For accounting purposes in relation to contracts hedging sales budgets in foreign currencies effective at the reporting date, it should be noted that for the transactions executed, especially Domestic Currency Swaps, and in accordance with all the conditions provided by the IAS/IFRS standards, hedge accounting was applied with reference to the type of “cash flow hedge”. Consequently, the corresponding changes in fair values are reflected in a shareholders’ equity reserve, net of the tax effect. 9.2 Derivative financial instruments on interest rates a) Notional values and fair value The table shows the details of the notional and fair values and other information regarding the various types of derivative contracts on interest rates in existence as at 30.06.2013; on said date, open agreements concern Carraro International S.A.

In relation to the positioning in the hierarchy of fair values pursuant to IFRS 7 par. 27 the financial instruments
described are classifiable as level 2; there were no transfers of level during the period. For determination of the fair value of Interest Rate Swaps the discounted cash flow method was applied.
