Corporates returned to growth with

a +4.2% increase versus the prior

Financial Institutions also continued

to perform well, growing +2.7% in

contribution of the real estate

appraisals segment

Q1’16 EBITDA increased +2.7%

versus previous year

EBITDA margins decreased, from

54.3% in Q1’15 to 53.8% in Q1’16,

Rationale for the Acquisition of 70% of PayClick

Marketing Solutions division has historically been focused on the B2B sector, and the lead generation products and

services had limited access to final clients

The acquisition of PayClick expands Cerved’s footprint by (i.) extending into the DEM sector, and (ii.) extending its

offering also to B2C clients

PayClick has access to 12.5m consumers to which it actively markets products and services

We envisage interesting commercial synergies with Cerved’s existing Marketing Solutions and Corporate clients to

whom we can offer a more complete range of products and services to answer Marketing and Commercial needs

Key highlights Summary Profit and Loss (€m)

Summary Profit and Loss

Top line growth of +6.6%, of

which +3.9% organic

Personnel costs increased €2.8m

reflecting consolidation of the

Creval transaction and new

hirings in growing areas of

business (eg, real estate and

ratings)

PPA increased by €0.8m due to

the additional PPA of Creval

transaction

Non-recurring financial expenses

of €1.4m referred to the write-off

of old upfront fees

Financial Expenses halved in

Q1’16 versus the previous year,

crystallizing the savings yielded

by the refinancing transaction

Net Working Capital (€m) Key highlights

NWC to 14.6% of LTM Revenues,

reflecting an improvement

compared to Q1’15

Such improvement was

achieved in spite of the strong

growth of the Credit

Management business, which

has higher working capital

requirements compared to the

other businesses

Receivables declined due to

improved collection policies

Deferred Revenues increased

Operating Cash Flow

increased by 9.9% in Q1’16,

from €19.2m to €21.1m

Improvement in Operating

Cash Flow arises from the

underlying growth in EBITDA,

partially offset by the higher

absorption of Net Working

Capital

Capex of €7.7m, slightly lower

compared to the prior year

The high absorption of Net

Working Capital is due to

season effects which result in

the contraction of Deferred

Revenues and the increase in

Trade Receivables
