Highlights of the three months ended September 30, 2022
On July 25, 2022, Ferrari announced a new photovoltaic system to be built on the roofs of its Maranello factory buildings, further expanding its independent energy production and reducing its CO2e emissions. Ferrari is taking one more step on the path to carbon neutrality alongside Enel X. The system will allow savings of more than 18,500 tonnes of CO2e over 25 years, or 740 tonnes per year.
On July 29, 2022, the Ferrari 296 GT3 was unveiled. It is an innovative project, on and off the track, developed to continue a winning tradition dating back to 1949 when the 166 MM triumphed in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
On September 13, 2022, Ferrari announced the unveiling of the Ferrari Purosangue, the first ever four-door, four-seater car in the Prancing Horse’s 75-year history. The vehicle is equipped with Maranello’s iconic naturally-aspirated V12 engine, which can unleash a massive 725 cv, with dynamics inspired by the Prancing Horse’s most extreme sports cars that make the Purosangue an authentic four-door sports car.
On September 23, 2022, Ferrari announced that it has received the confirmation of the Equal-Salary Certificate in Italy and in North America. This recognition confirms Ferrari’s steadfast commitment to an inclusive work environment, where the primacy of merit is guaranteed to attract, retain and develop the talents that will accelerate Ferrari’s innovation in the future.
On September 25, 2022, the third Ferrari fashion show took place at the Teatro Lirico Giorgio Gaber in Milan and it rotated around the theme of dreams. Building on the experimental style codes of the two previous collections, the new pieces continue to take inspiration from the Prancing Horse’s racing heritage; the reinvention of the iconic Ferrari silhouette is present, but this time around the focus is on cool, casual and relaxed pieces.
On September 28, 2022, Ferrari announced the unveiling of the Ferrari SP51, the latest addition to the Prancing Horse’s One-Off series. The SP51 is a front-engined V12 spider based on the 812 GTS platform crafted to the specifications and individual requirement of a longstanding client.
Despite new waves of COVID-19 in certain parts of the world, including Mainland China, which has reimposed various restrictions in certain regions in 2022, there were no significant effects on our supply chain or shipments during the nine months of 2022 and overall impacts were limited. The Ferrari Leadership Team is continuously monitoring the evolution of COVID-19 as new information becomes available, as well as any related effects on the results of operations and financial position of the Group.
As a result of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine that started in February 2022, many governments and supranational organizations around the world have announced the imposition of various sanctions on certain industries, individuals and entities in Russia, Belarus and the Ukrainian regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, as well as export controls on certain industries and products, including on luxury goods, and the exclusion of certain Russian financial institutions from the SWIFT messaging system. In early March 2022 the Group decided to suspend any shipment or delivery of vehicles to the Russian market until further notice. The effects of these sanctions and other measures on Ferrari’s business, including its supply chain, have been limited, despite the continued rise in energy and commodity prices, which has been exacerbated by the conflict. Management is carefully monitoring the geopolitical environment and its potential implications on our business globally to appropriately address the impacts on our new order intake, operating costs and financial expenses.

_____________________________
(1)Includes net revenues generated from shipments of our cars, any personalization generated on these cars, as well as sales of spare parts.
(2)Includes net revenues generated from the sale of engines to Maserati for use in their cars and from the rental of engines to other Formula 1 racing teams.
(3)Includes net revenues earned by our Formula 1 racing team through sponsorship agreements and our share of the Formula 1 World Championship commercial revenues as well as net revenues generated through the Ferrari brand, including merchandising, licensing and royalty income.
(4)Primarily relates to financial services activities, management of the Mugello racetrack and other sports-related activities.
Net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2022 were €1,250 million, an increase of €197 million or 18.7 percent (an increase of 13.0 percent on a constant currency basis), from €1,053 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
The change in net revenues was attributable to the combination of (i) a €174 million increase in cars and spare parts, (ii) a €28 million increase in sponsorship, commercial and brand and (iii) a €9 million increase in other revenues, partially offset by (iv) a €14 million decrease in engines.
Cars and spare parts
Net revenues generated from cars and spare parts were €1,057 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of €174 million or 19.6 percent, from €883 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
The increase in net revenues from cars and spare parts was primarily attributable to higher car volumes (as further explained below), partially offset by negative mix. In particular, the negative mix was driven by the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2, which reached the end of their limited series, as well as softer range model mix, partially offset by higher personalizations. The increase in net revenues was also supported by the positive contribution from the appreciation of certain foreign currencies compared to the Euro (mainly the U.S. Dollar and the Chinese Yuan), net of the impact of hedging transactions.
Total shipments increased by 438 cars or 15.9 percent, from 2,750 cars in the third quarter of 2021 to 3,188 cars in the third quarter of 2022. The product portfolio in the quarter included seven internal combustion engine (ICE) models and three hybrid engine models, which represented 81 percent and 19 percent of shipments, respectively. The increase in shipments was driven by the ramp up of the 296 GTB and the 812 Competizione as well as the Ferrari Portofino M and the F8 family, partially offset by lower shipments of the SF90 family.
Geographically the €174 million increase in net revenues from cars and spare parts was composed of: (i) a €92 million increase in Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, (ii) a €77 million increase in Americas and (iii) a €17 million increase in Rest of APAC, partially offset by (iv) a €12 million decrease in EMEA. The mix of net revenues by geography was the result of deliberate geographic allocations of shipments.
Engines
Net revenues generated from engines were €41 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of €14 million or 25.3 percent, from €55 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The €14 million decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease in engines sold to Maserati, which is approaching contract expiration in 2023.
Sponsorship, commercial and brand
Net revenues generated from sponsorship, commercial agreements and brand management activities were €123 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, and increase of €28 million or 29.7 percent, from €95 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, mainly attributable to a better prior year Formula 1 ranking and lifestyle-related activities, partially offset by lower sponsorships.
Cost of sales

| (€ million, except percentages) |
Cost of sales | 655 | | | 52.4 | % | | 525 | | | 49.8 | % | | 130 | | | 25.0 | % |
Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was €655 million, an increase of €130 million or 25.0 percent, from €525 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. As a percentage of net revenues, cost of sales was 52.4 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 49.8 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
The increase in cost of sales was primarily attributable to higher car volumes and higher industrial costs, including cost inflation, as well as negative contribution from the appreciation of certain foreign currencies compared to the Euro (mainly the U.S. Dollar and the Chinese Yuan).
Selling, general and administrative costs

| (€ million, except percentages) |
Selling, general and administrative costs | 107 | | | 8.5 | % | | 82 | | | 7.8 | % | | 25 | | | 29.1 | % |
Selling, general and administrative costs for the three months ended September 30, 2022 were €107 million, an increase of €25 million or 29.1 percent, from €82 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. As a percentage of net revenues, selling, general and administrative costs were 8.5 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 7.8 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
The increase in selling, general and administrative costs was mainly attributable to communication, marketing and lifestyle activities, also reflecting the events for the quarter.

Amortization of capitalized development costs | 65 | | | 5.2 | % | | 40 | | | 3.9 | % | | 25 | | | 59.8 | % |
Research and development costs | 182 | | | 14.6 | % | | 170 | | | 16.2 | % | | 12 | | | 6.7 | % |
Research and development costs for the three months ended September 30, 2022 were €182 million, an increase of €12 million, or 6.7 percent, from €170 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. As a percentage of net revenues, research and development costs were 14.6 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 16.2 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
The increase in research and development costs was primarily attributable to an increase in amortization of capitalized development costs of €25 million driven by a general increase in capitalized development costs in recent years in line with our strategy to innovate and broaden our product range, partially offset by a decrease in research and development costs expensed of €13 million.

EBIT | 299 | | | 23.9 | % | | 270 | | | 25.7 | % | | 29 | | | 10.5 | % |
EBIT for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was €299 million, an increase of €29 million or 10.5 percent, from €270 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. EBIT margin for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was 23.9 percent compared to 25.7 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
The increase in EBIT was primarily attributable to the combined effects of (i) positive volume impact of €62 million, (ii) negative product mix impact of €26 million, (iii) negative contribution of €11 million from higher industrial costs (including cost inflation), lower sponsorships, reduced engine shipments to Maserati (in line with plans) and other
miscellaneous expenses, partially offset by a better prior year Formula 1 ranking and higher contribution from lifestyle and other supporting activities, (iv) an increase in research and development costs of €12 million, (v) an increase in selling, general and administrative costs of €25 million and (vi) positive foreign currency exchange impact of €41 million (including foreign currency hedging instruments).

_____________________________
(1)Includes net revenues generated from shipments of our cars, any personalization generated on these cars, as well as sales of spare parts.
(2)Includes net revenues generated from the sale of engines to Maserati for use in their cars and from the rental of engines to other Formula 1 racing teams.
(3)Includes net revenues earned by our Formula 1 racing team through sponsorship agreements and our share of the Formula 1 World Championship commercial revenues as well as net revenues generated through the Ferrari brand, including merchandising, licensing and royalty income.
(4)Primarily relates to financial services activities, management of the Mugello racetrack and other sports-related activities.
Net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were €3,727 million, an increase of €628 million or 20.3 percent (an increase of 16.9 percent on a constant currency basis), from €3,099 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
The change in net revenues was attributable to the combination of (i) a €550 million increase in cars and spare parts, (ii) a €72 million increase in sponsorship, commercial and brand and (iii) a €32 million increase in other revenues, partially offset by (iv) a €26 million decrease in engines.
Cars and spare parts
Net revenues generated from cars and spare parts were €3,169 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of €550 million or 21.0 percent, from €2,619 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
The increase in net revenues from cars and spare parts was primarily attributable to higher car volumes and personalizations. The increase was also supported by the positive contribution from the appreciation of certain foreign currencies compared to the Euro (mainly the U.S. Dollar and the Chinese Yuan), partially offset by the impact of hedging transactions.
Total shipments increased by 1,688 cars or 21 percent, from 8,206 cars for the nine months of 2021 to 9,894 cars for the nine months of 2022. The increase in shipments was driven by the Ferrari Portofino M and the F8 family, together with the SF90 family, as well as the ramp up of the 296 GTB and the 812 Competizione. Shipments of the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2 were lower compared to the prior year and reached the end of their limited-series run at the end of the first quarter of 2022.
The €550 million increase in net revenues from cars and spare parts was composed of: (i) a €211 million increase in Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, (ii) a €171 million increase in Americas, (iii) a €87 million increase in EMEA, and (iv) a €81 million increase in Rest of APAC. The mix of net revenues by geography was impacted by deliberate geographic allocations of shipments, in response to port congestion experienced in the first months of the year.
Engines
Net revenues generated from engines were €119 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of €26 million or 17.8 percent, from €145 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease in engines sold to Maserati, which is approaching contract expiration in 2023.
Sponsorship, commercial and brand
Net revenues generated from sponsorship, commercial agreements and brand management activities were €349 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of €72 million or 26.3 percent, from €277 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, mainly attributable to a better prior year Formula 1 ranking, lifestyle-related activities and positive foreign currency exchange impact, partially offset by lower sponsorships.
Other
Other net revenues were €90 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of €32 million, or 54.5 percent, from €58 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to the Moto GP event held at our Mugello racetrack, which was held with full public attendance in 2022, as well as other supporting activities mainly related to racing.

As a percentage of net revenues, cost of sales were 51.6 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 48.6 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
The increase in cost of sales was primarily attributable to higher car volumes and higher industrial costs, including cost inflation, as well as negative contribution from the appreciation of certain foreign currencies compared to the Euro (mainly the U.S. Dollar and the Chinese Yuan), and lifestyle and other supporting activities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity Overview
We require liquidity in order to fund our operations and meet our obligations. Short-term liquidity is required, primarily to purchase raw materials, parts, components and utilities for car production, as well as to fund personnel expenses and other operating costs. In addition to our general working capital and operational needs, we require cash for capital investments to support continuous product range renewal and expansion, as well as for research and development activities to diversify our product portfolio through hybrid and electric technology. We also make investments to enhance manufacturing efficiency, improve capacity, implement actions to reach full carbon neutrality by 2030, ensure environmental compliance and carry out maintenance activities, among other uses. We fund our capital expenditure primarily with cash generated from our operating activities.
We centrally manage our operating cash management, liquidity and cash flow requirements with the objective of ensuring efficient and effective management of our funds. We believe that our cash generation together with our available liquidity, including committed credit lines granted from primary financial institutions, will be sufficient to meet our obligations and fund our business and capital expenditures.
See the “Net Debt and Net Industrial Debt” section below for additional details relating to our liquidity.
Cyclical Nature of Our Cash Flows
Our working capital is subject to month to month fluctuations due to, among other things, production and sales volumes, our financial services activities, the timing of capital expenditures and, to a lesser extent, tax payments. In particular, our inventory levels generally increase with our growth in deliveries in the periods leading up to the launch of new models, during the phase out of existing models when we build up spare parts, and at the end of the second quarter when our inventory levels are generally higher to support the summer plant shutdown.
We generally receive payment for cars between 30 and 40 days after the car is shipped (or earlier when sales financing schemes are utilized by us or by our dealers) while we generally pay most suppliers between 60 and 90 days after we receive the raw materials, components or other goods and services. Additionally, we also receive advance payments from our customers, mainly for our Icona and limited edition models. We maintain sufficient inventory of raw materials and components to ensure continuity of our production lines, however delivery of most raw materials and components takes place
monthly or more frequently in order to minimize inventories. The manufacture of one of our cars typically takes between 30 and 45 days, depending on the level of automation of the relevant production line, and the car is generally shipped to our dealers three to six days following the completion of production, although in certain regions we may warehouse cars for longer periods of time to ensure timely deliveries. As a result of the above, including the advances received from customers for certain car models, we tend to receive payment for cars shipped before or around the time we are required to make payments for the raw materials, components or other materials used in the manufacturing of our cars.
Our investments for capital expenditure and research and development are, among other factors, influenced by the timing and number of new models launches. Our development costs, as well as our other investments in capital expenditure, generally peak in periods when we develop a significant number of new models to renew or expand our product range. Our investments in research and development are also influenced by the timing of research costs for our Formula 1 activities, for which expenditure in a normal season is generally higher in the first and last quarters of the year, and otherwise depends on the evolution of the applicable Formula 1 technical regulations, as well as the number and cadence of races during the course of the racing season. We are currently undergoing a period of structurally higher capital spending as we broaden our car architectures and work on the transition to hybrid and electric technologies. We also continue to make significant capital investments by prioritizing the purchase of operating assets and the realization of infrastructural projects that are considered important for the continuing success of Ferrari and its future development, including acquisitions of tracts of land adjacent to our facilities in Maranello as part of our expansion plans and the ongoing construction of the e-building.
The payment of income taxes also affects our cash flows. We typically pay the first tax advance payment in the second quarter of the year, together with the balance due for the previous year, and the remaining part of the advance payment in the third and/or fourth quarters. Our tax expense and tax payments for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 benefited from applying the Patent Box tax regime. See Note 12 “Income Tax Expense” to the Interim Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document for additional information related to the Patent Box tax regime in Italy.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 cash and cash equivalents held by the Group increased by €19 million compared to a decrease of €89 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The difference in the net change in cash and cash equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the change in cash and cash equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 of positive €108 million was primarily attributable to the combined effects of:
(i)the full repayment of a bond for €501 million in January 2021 (including a principal amount of €500 million and interest of €1 million);
(ii)an increase in EBITDA of €171 million;
(iii)a higher change in other operating assets and liabilities for €104 million driven by the collection of advances from the Daytona SP3 and the 812 Competizione A; and
(iv)lower net investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets of €11 million;
partially offset by:
(v)higher share repurchases of €136 million (€301 million in 2022 compared to €165 million in 2021) and higher dividends paid of €90 million (€251 million in 2022 compared to €161 million in 2021);
(vi)lower net proceeds from borrowings from banks and other financial institutions for €156 million;

In particular, we make such investments to support the development and diversification of our current and future product offering. The capitalized development costs primarily include materials and personnel costs relating to engineering, design and development activities focused on content enhancement of existing cars and new models, including to broaden our product range and our ongoing investments in hybrid and electric technology, as well as the development of components, which are necessary to provide continuing performance upgrades to our customers.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 we invested €288 million in externally acquired and internally generated development costs, of which €205 million related to the development of models to be launched in future years and €83 million related primarily to the development of our current product portfolio and components.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 we invested €264 million in externally acquired and internally generated development costs, of which €160 million related to the development of models to be launched in future years and €104 million related primarily to the development of our current product portfolio and components.
Property, plant and equipment
Our total capital expenditures in property, plant and equipment for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, were €202 million and €236 million, respectively.
Our most significant investments generally relate to plant, machinery and equipment, which amounted to €50 million and €46 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, as well as advances and assets under construction, which amounted to €115 million and €154 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 respectively. Our main investments primarily related to industrial tools needed for the production of cars and
investments in car production lines (including those for models to be launched in future years), as well as investments related to our personalization programs and engine assembly lines. Investments in advances and assets under construction and industrial buildings for the periods presented reflect our focus on the broadening of our product range and supporting future model launches. The cumulative acquisition of tracts of land adjacent to our facilities in Maranello as part of our expansion plans, since the start of 2019 to September 30, 2022 amounted to €120 million.
At September 30, 2022, the Group had contractual commitments for the purchase of property, plant and equipment amounting to €141 million (€74 million at December 31, 2021).
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We monitor and evaluate our operating and financial performance using several non-GAAP financial measures including: Net Debt, Net Industrial Debt, Free Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted Net Profit, Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings per Common Share, as well as a number of financial metrics measured on a constant currency basis. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful and relevant information for management and investors regarding our performance and improve our ability to assess our financial performance and financial position. They also provide us with comparable measures that facilitate management’s ability to identify operational trends, as well as make decisions regarding future spending, resource allocations and other operational decisions. While similar measures are widely used in the industry in which we operate, the financial measures we use may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies nor are they intended to be substitutes for measures of financial performance or financial position as prepared in accordance with IFRS.
Net Debt and Net Industrial Debt
Due to different sources of cash flows used for the repayment of debt between industrial activities and financial services activities, and the different business structure and leverage implications, Net Industrial Debt, together with Net Debt, are the primary measures used by us to analyze our capital structure and financial leverage. We believe the presentation of Net Industrial Debt aids management and investors in their analysis of the Group’s financial position and financial performance and to compare the Group’s financial position and financial performance with that of other companies. Net Industrial Debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents (Net Debt), further adjusted to exclude the debt and cash and cash equivalents related to our financial services activities (Net Debt of Financial Services Activities).
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Net Debt and Net Industrial Debt at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Net Debt of Financial Services Activities (B) | (1,286) | | | (989) | |
Net Industrial Debt (A-B) | (256) | | | (297) | |
The increase in the Net Debt of Financial Services Activities (as defined above) of €297 million, from €989 million at December 31, 2021, to €1,286 million at September 30, 2022, relates primarily to the increase in asset-backed financing (securitizations) of the receivables generated by our financial services activities in the United States. Such receivables grew by €339 million, from €1,144 million at December 31, 2021 to €1,483 million at September 30, 2022, including the positive impact of foreign exchange rate.
The following table presents our receivables from financing activities and our Net Debt of Financial Services Activities at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

For further details of our receivables from financing activities and our asset-backed financing (securitizations), see Note 18 “Current Receivables and Other Current Assets” and Note 23 “Debt” to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents amounted to €1,363 million at September 30, 2022 compared to €1,344 million at December 31, 2021.
Approximately 82 percent of our cash and cash equivalents were denominated in Euro at September 30, 2022 (approximately 85 percent at December 31, 2021). Our cash and cash equivalents denominated in currencies other than the Euro are available mostly to Ferrari S.p.A. and certain subsidiaries which operate in areas other than Europe. Cash held in such countries may be subject to transfer restrictions depending on the jurisdictions in which these subsidiaries operate. In particular, cash held in China (including in foreign currencies), which amounted to €75 million at September 30, 2022 (€90 million at December 31, 2021), is subject to certain repatriation restrictions and may only be repatriated as a repayment of payables or debt, or as dividends or capital distributions. We do not currently believe that such transfer restrictions have an adverse impact on our ability to meet our liquidity requirements.
The following table sets forth an analysis of the currencies in which our cash and cash equivalents were denominated at the dates presented.

Cash collected from the settlement of receivables under securitization programs is subject to certain restrictions regarding its use and is primarily applied to repay principal and interest of the related funding. Such cash amounted to €53 million at September 30, 2022 (€48 million at December 31, 2021).
Total available liquidity
Total available liquidity (defined as cash and cash equivalents plus undrawn committed credit lines) at September 30, 2022 was €2,034 million (€2,020 million at December 31, 2021).
The following table summarizes our total available liquidity:

The undrawn committed credit lines at September 30, 2022 and at December 31, 2021 relate to revolving credit facilities. For further details, see Note 23 “Debt” in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document.
Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities
Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities are two of our primary key performance indicators to
measure the Group’s performance. These measures are presented by management to aid investors in their analysis of the Group’s financial performance and to compare the Group’s financial performance with that of other companies. Free Cash Flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities less investments in property, plant and equipment (excluding right-of use assets recognized during the period in accordance with IFRS 16 — Leases) intangible assets and joint ventures. Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities is defined as Free Cash Flow adjusted to exclude the operating cash flow from our financial services activities (Free Cash Flow from Financial Services Activities).
The following table sets forth our Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
| | | | | | | | | | | |

Free Cash Flow | 476 | | | 421 | |
Free Cash Flow from Financial Services Activities | (120) | | | (81) | |
Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities | 596 | | | 502 | |
Free Cash Flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was €476 million, an increase of €55 million compared to €421 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For an explanation of the drivers in Free Cash Flow see “Cash Flows” above.
Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was €596 million compared to €502 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities was primarily attributable to (i) an increase in EBITDA, (ii) a positive change in cash flows from other operating assets and liabilities driven by the collection of advances from the Daytona SP3 and the 812 Competizione A, and (iii) to a lesser extent, for lower capital expenditures, partially offset by (iv) higher income taxes paid and (v) higher investments in intangible assets. See also “Cash Flows” above for additional information.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is defined as net profit before income tax expense, net financial expenses and amortization and depreciation. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA as adjusted for certain income and costs which are significant in nature, expected to occur infrequently, and that management considers not reflective of ongoing operational activities. EBITDA is presented by management to aid investors in their analysis of the performance of the Group and to assist investors in the comparison of the Group’s performance with that of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is provided in order to present how the underlying business has performed prior to the impact of the adjusting items, which may obscure the underlying performance and impair comparability of results between periods.
The following table sets forth the calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and provides a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to net profit. There were no adjustments impacting Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented.

See Note 13 “Earnings per Share” to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this document, for the calculation of the basic and diluted earnings per common share.
Constant Currency Information
The “Results of Operations” discussion above includes information about our net revenues on a constant currency basis, which excludes the effects of foreign currency translation from our subsidiaries with functional currencies other than Euro, as well as the effects of foreign currency transaction impact and foreign currency hedging. We use this information to assess how the underlying revenues changed independent of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and hedging. We calculate constant currency by (i) applying the prior-period average foreign currency exchange rates to translate current period revenues of foreign subsidiaries expressed in local functional currency other than Euro, (ii) applying the prior-period average foreign currency exchange rates to current period revenues originated in a currency other than the functional currency of the applicable entity, and (iii) eliminating the variances of any foreign currency hedging (see Note 5 “Other Information” to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in this Interim Report, for information on the foreign currency exchange rates applied). Although we do not believe that these measures are a substitute for GAAP measures, we do believe that revenues excluding the impact of currency fluctuations and the impacts of hedging provide additional useful information to investors regarding the operating performance on a local currency basis.
Risk Factors
We face a variety of risks and uncertainties in our business. For a description of these risks and uncertainties please see “Risk Factors” in the Group’s Annual Report and Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the AFM and the SEC on February 25, 2022. All such risks factors should be read in conjunction with this Interim Report. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe to be immaterial, may also become important factors that affect us.
The escalating geopolitical tensions from the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and the resulting sanctions, restrictions, prohibitions and export controls imposed on Russia, Belarus and the Ukrainian regions of Donetsk and Luhansk by various governments and supranational organizations around the world have impacted global supply chains and created inflationary pressures on the price of raw materials, energy and commodities. If the situation continues or escalates and new measures or countermeasures are implemented, these adverse impacts could become more prevalent and negatively impact our supply chain and the availability and price of raw materials, energy and commodities. For further information relating to these risks see also “We depend on our suppliers, many of which are single source suppliers; and if these suppliers fail to deliver necessary raw materials, systems, components and parts of appropriate quality in a timely manner, our operations may be disrupted.” and “Global economic conditions, pandemics and macro events may adversely affect us.” within the section “Risk Factors” in the Group’s Annual Report and Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the AFM and the SEC on February 25, 2022.
Outlook
2022 guidance based on the following assumptions:
•Carefully leveraging strong demand
•Richer model mix being more than offset by the negative impact from the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2 phase out
•Ferrari Daytona SP3 and Ferrari Purosangue commencing production in 2022 with deliveries starting in 2023
•Formula 1 revenues reflecting more diversified but lower sponsorship, partially offset by better prior year ranking
•Increasing depreciation and amortization in line with the start of production of new models
•Industrial free cash flow generation sustained by Daytona SP3 advances collection
•Disciplined capital expenditures to fuel long term development
•Stronger contribution from personalizations and tailwind from FX, net of cost inflation
Subject to trading conditions unaffected by COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Background
Ferrari is among the world’s leading luxury brands. The activities of Ferrari N.V. (herein referred to as “Ferrari” or the “Company” and together with its subsidiaries the “Group”) and its subsidiaries are focused on the design, engineering, production and sale of luxury performance sports cars. The cars are designed, engineered and produced in Maranello and Modena, Italy and sold in more than 60 markets worldwide through a network of 176 authorized dealers operating 195 points of sale. The Ferrari brand is licensed to a selected number of producers and retailers of luxury and lifestyle goods, with Ferrari branded merchandise also sold through a network of 16 Ferrari-owned stores and 14 franchised stores (including 12 Ferrari Store Junior), as well as on the Ferrari’s website. To facilitate the sale of new and pre-owned cars, the Group provides various forms of financing to clients and dealers, including through cooperation and other agreements with certain financial institutions. Ferrari also participates in the Formula 1 World Championship through Scuderia Ferrari. The activities of Scuderia Ferrari are a core element of Ferrari marketing and promotional activities and an important source of innovation to support the technological advancement of Ferrari range models.
2. AUTHORIZATION OF INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND COMPLIANCE WITH INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
These Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Ferrari N.V. were authorized for issuance on November 2, 2022, and have been prepared in compliance with International Accounting Standard 34 — Interim Financial Reporting (IAS 34). The Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements at and for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”), which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and IFRS as endorsed by the European Union. There are no material effects on these Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements resulting from differences between IFRS as issued by the IASB and IFRS as endorsed by the European Union. The designation IFRS also includes International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) as well as the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC” and “SIC”). The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those used at December 31, 2021, except as described in the section “New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2022”.
3. BASIS OF PREPARATION FOR INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities as well as the disclosure of contingent liabilities. If in the future such estimates and assumptions, which are based on management’s best judgment at the date of these Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, deviate from the actual circumstances, the original estimates and assumptions will be modified as appropriate in the period in which the circumstances change. Reference should be made to the section “Use of estimates” in the Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed description of the more significant valuation procedures used by the Group.
Moreover, in accordance with IAS 34, certain valuation procedures, in particular those of a more complex nature regarding matters such as any impairment of non-current assets, are only carried out in full during the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements, when all the related information necessary is available, other than in the event that there are indications of impairment, in which case an immediate assessment is required. Similarly, the actuarial valuations that are required for the determination of employee benefit provisions are also usually carried out during the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements, except in the event of significant market fluctuations, or significant plan amendments, curtailments, or settlements.
New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2022
The following new standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2022 were adopted by the Group.
In May 2020 the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 3 — Business combinations to update a reference in IFRS 3 to the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting without changing the accounting requirements for business combinations. There was no effect from the adoption of these amendments.
In May 2020 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 16 — Property, Plant and Equipment. The amendments prohibit a company from deducting from the cost of property, plant and equipment amounts received from selling items produced while the company is preparing the asset for its intended use. Instead, a company should recognize such sales proceeds and the related cost in the income statement. There was no effect from the adoption of these amendments.
In May 2020 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 37 — Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, which specify which costs a company includes when assessing whether a contract will be loss-making. There was no effect from the adoption of these amendments.
In May 2020 the IASB issued Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2018 - 2020 Cycle. The improvements have amended four standards: i) IFRS 1 — First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards in relation to allowing a subsidiary to measure cumulative translation differences using amounts reported by its parent, ii) IFRS 9 — Financial Instruments in relation to which fees an entity includes when applying the ‘10 percent’ test for derecognition of financial liabilities, iii) IAS 41 — Agriculture in relation to the exclusion of taxation cash flows when measuring the fair value of a biological asset, and iv) IFRS 16 — Leases in relation to an illustrative example of reimbursement for leasehold improvements. There was no effect from the adoption of these amendments.
New standards, amendments and interpretations not yet effective
The standards, amendments and interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) that will have mandatory application in 2023 or subsequent years are listed below:
In May 2017 the IASB issued IFRS 17 — Insurance Contracts, which establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of insurance contracts issued as well as guidance relating to reinsurance contracts held and investment contracts with discretionary participation features issued. In June 2020 the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 17 aimed at helping companies implement IFRS 17 and make it easier for companies to explain their financial performance. The new standard and amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2023. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.
In January 2020 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 — Presentation of Financial Statements: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current to clarify how to classify debt and other liabilities as current or non-current, and in particular how to classify liabilities with an uncertain settlement date and liabilities that may be settled by converting to equity. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2023. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.
In February 2021 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 — Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS Practice Statement 2: Disclosure of Accounting policies which require companies to disclose their material accounting policy information rather than their significant accounting policies and provide guidance on how to apply the concept of materiality to accounting policy disclosures. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2023. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.
In February 2021 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 8 — Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: Definition of Accounting Estimates which clarify how companies should distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2023. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.
In May 2021 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 12 — Income Taxes: Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities Arising From a Single Transaction that clarify how companies account for deferred tax on transactions such as
leases and decommissioning obligations. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2023. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.
In December 2021 the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 17 — Insurance Contracts: Initial Application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 - Comparative Information, which provide a transition option relating to comparative information about financial assets presented on initial application of IFRS 17. The amendments are aimed at helping entities to avoid temporary accounting mismatches between financial assets and insurance contract liabilities, and therefore improve the usefulness of comparative information for users of financial statements. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2023. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.
In September 2022 the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 16 — Leases: Liability in a Sale and Leaseback to improve the requirements for sale and leaseback transactions, which specify the measurement of the liability arising in a sale and leaseback transaction, to ensure the seller-lessee does not recognize any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use it retains. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2024. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.
Scope of consolidation
There were no changes in the scope of consolidation for the periods presented in this Interim Report.

The abovementioned bonds and notes impose covenants on Ferrari including: (i) negative pledge clauses which require that, in case any security interest upon assets of Ferrari is granted in connection with other notes or debt securities with the consent of Ferrari are, or are intended to be, listed, such security should be equally and ratably extended to the outstanding notes, subject to certain permitted exceptions; (ii) pari passu clauses, under which the notes rank and will rank pari passu with all other present and future unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of Ferrari; (iii) events of default for failure to pay principal or interest or comply with other obligations under the notes with specified cure periods or in the event of a payment default or acceleration of indebtedness or in the case of certain bankruptcy events; and (iv) other clauses that are customarily applicable to debt securities of issuers with a similar credit standing. A breach of these covenants may require the early repayment of the notes. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Ferrari was in compliance with the covenants of the notes.
Asset-backed financing (Securitizations)
As a means of diversifying its sources of funds, the Group sells certain of its receivables originated by its financial services activities in the United States through asset-backed financing or securitization programs (the terms asset-backed financing and securitization programs are used synonymously throughout this document), without transferring the risks typically associated with the related receivables. As a result, the receivables sold through securitization programs are still consolidated until collection from the customer. During the first nine months of 2022, the following revolving securitization programs were in place:
•revolving securitization program for funding of up to $750 million, which was renewed in December 2020 for a tenor of 24 months, and increased up to $800 million in December 2021, up to $850 million in May 2022 and up to $925 million in August 2022, by pledging retail financial receivables in the United States as collateral. The notes bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the aggregate of a synthetic base rate substantially replicating the LIBOR plus a margin of 75 basis points. At September 30, 2022 total proceeds net of repayments from the sales of financial receivables under the program amounted to $871 million ($775 million at December 31, 2021). The securitization agreement requires the maintenance of an interest rate cap.
•revolving securitization program for funding of up to $285 million, which was renewed in November 2021 for a tenor of 24 months, by pledging leasing financial receivables in the United States as collateral. The notes bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the aggregate of SOFR plus a margin of 65 basis points. At September 30, 2022 total proceeds net of repayments from the sales of financial receivables under the program amounted to $285 million ($245 million at December 31, 2021). The securitization agreement requires the maintenance of an interest rate cap.
The consolidated total amount of the revolving securitization programs has been progressively increased since inception as the underlying receivables portfolios have increased.
Cash collected from the settlement of receivables under securitization programs is subject to certain restrictions regarding its use and is primarily applied to repay principal and interest of the related funding. Such cash amounted to €53,156 thousand at September 30, 2022 (€47,742 thousand at December 31, 2021).
Borrowings from banks and other financial institutions
Borrowings from banks and other financial institutions at September 30, 2022 include (i) €50,000 thousand related to an amortizing term loan to Ferrari S.p.A. that was originally borrowed in June 2021, for a tenor of 36 months and bearing fixed interest at 0.118 percent and (ii) financial liabilities of FFS Inc to support financial services activities, and in particular €82,702 thousand (€61,919 thousand at December 31, 2021) relating to a U.S. Dollar committed credit facility for up to $100 million, (drawn down for $80 million at September 30, 2022) for a tenor of 24 months and bearing interest at LIBOR plus 75 basis points.
Lease liabilities
The Group recognizes lease liabilities in relation to right-of-use assets in accordance with IFRS 16 - Leases. At September 30, 2022 lease liabilities amounted to €59,989 thousand (€56,210 thousand at December 31, 2021).

24. OTHER LIABILITIES
An analysis of other liabilities is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| At September 30, 2022 | | At December 31, 2021 |
| (€ thousand) |
Deferred income | 346,474 | | | 256,206 | |
Advances and security deposits | 407,152 | | | 240,696 | |
Accrued expenses | 86,520 | | | 80,787 | |
Payables to personnel | 57,686 | | | 53,712 | |
Social security payables | 23,676 | | | 24,660 | |
Other | 38,812 | | | 70,714 | |
Total other liabilities | 960,320 | | | 726,775 | |
Deferred income primarily includes amounts received under maintenance and power warranty programs of €237,053 thousand at September 30, 2022 and €218,982 thousand at December 31, 2021, which are deferred and recognized as net revenues over the length of the maintenance program. Deferred income also includes amounts collected under various other agreements, which are dependent upon the future performance of a service or other act of the Group. The increase in deferred income primarily relates to advances received for Formula 1 sponsorship agreements.
Advances and security deposits primarily include advances received for the purchase of Icona and limited edition models. Upon shipment of the cars, the advances are recognized as revenue. The increase primarily relates to advances received during the period for the Ferrari Daytona SP3 and the 812 Competizione A.
25. TRADE PAYABLES
Trade payables of €762,651 thousand at September 30, 2022 (€797,832 thousand at December 31, 2021) are entirely due within one year. The carrying amount of trade payables is considered to be equivalent to their fair value.
26. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
IFRS 13 — Fair Value Measurement establishes a three level hierarchy for the inputs to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value by giving the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 inputs). In some cases, the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those cases, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy at the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
Levels used in the hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Group can access at the measurement date.
Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the assets and liabilities.
Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis
The following table shows the fair value hierarchy for financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2022 and at December 31, 2021:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels for the periods presented.
The fair value of current financial assets and other financial liabilities relates to derivative financial instruments and is measured by taking into consideration market parameters at the balance sheet date, using widely accepted valuation techniques. In particular, the fair value of foreign currency derivatives (forward contracts, currency swaps and options) and interest rate caps is determined by taking the prevailing foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, as applicable, at the balance sheet date.
The par value of cash and cash equivalents usually approximates fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments, which consist primarily of current bank accounts.
Assets and liabilities not measured at fair value on a recurring basis
For financial instruments represented by short-term receivables and payables, for which the present value of future cash flows does not differ significantly from carrying value, the Group assumes that carrying value is a reasonable approximation of the fair value. In particular, the carrying amount of current receivables and other current assets and of trade payables and other liabilities approximates their fair value.
The following table presents the carrying amount and the fair value for the most relevant categories of financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value on a recurring basis: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
