The shutdown of the Maranello gas-fueled trigeneration plant, ahead of target, also marks a further step towards our 2030 carbon neutrality goal”.

Q3 2024 highlights:

Subsequent Events:

[5]    Of which 190 units in Q3 2024 (-152 units or -44.4% vs Q3 2023) and 633 units in 9M 2024 (-296 units or -31.9% vs 9M 2023) in Mainland China

Starting from 2024, residual net revenues generated from the sale of engines are presented within other net revenues as a result of the expiration of the supply contract with Maserati in December 2023. As a result, net revenues generated from engines of Euro 28 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and Euro 88 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, that were previously presented as “Engines” net revenues, have been presented within “Other” net revenues to conform to the current presentation.

The new Patent Box regime regulated by Law Decree No. 146, effective from October 22, 2021, provides for a 110% super tax deduction for costs relating to eligible intangible assets and allows for a transitional period where both regimes coexist.
