References to “Ferrari N.V.” refer to the registrant. References to “FCA” or “FCA Group” refer to Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V., together with its subsidiaries and its predecessor prior to the completion of the merger of Fiat S.p.A. (“Fiat”) with and into FCA. References to the “Separation” refer to the series of transactions through which the Ferrari business was separated from FCA as summarized in “Note on Presentation” below and references to the “Restructuring” refer to a restructuring completed in October 2015 as part of the Separation.

Note on Presentation

This document includes the consolidated financial statements of Ferrari N.V. as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, as well as IFRS as adopted by the European Union. We refer to these consolidated financial statements collectively as the “Consolidated Financial Statements.”

Basis of Preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements

As explained in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and in “Item 4.A. History and Development of the Company”, on October 29, 2014, FCA announced its intention to separate Ferrari S.p.A. from FCA. The separation was completed on January 3, 2016 and occurred through a series of transactions (together referred to as the “Separation”) including (i) an intra-group restructuring which resulted in the Company’s acquisition of the assets and business of Ferrari North Europe Limited and the transfer by FCA of its 90 percent shareholding in Ferrari S.p.A. to the Company, (ii) the transfer of Piero Ferrari’s 10 percent shareholding in Ferrari S.p.A. to the Company, (iii) the initial public offering of common shares of the Company on the New York Stock Exchange, and (iv) the distribution, following the initial public offering, of FCA’s remaining interest in the Company to FCA’s shareholders. Following the Separation Ferrari operates as an independent, publicly traded company.

On January 4, 2016 the Company also completed the listing of its common shares on the Mercato Telematico Azionario, the stock exchange managed by Borsa Italiana, under the ticker symbol RACE.

The Group’s financial information is presented in Euro. In some instances, information is presented in U.S. Dollars. All references in this document to “Euro” and “€” refer to the currency introduced at the start of the third stage of European Economic and Monetary Union pursuant to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, as amended, and all references to “U.S. Dollars,” “U.S.$” and “$” refer to the currency of the United States of America (the “United States”).

The language of this document is English. Certain legislative references and technical terms have been cited in their original language in order that the correct technical meaning may be ascribed to them under applicable law.

D. Risk Factors

We face a variety of risks in our business. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us. 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.

Risks Related to Our Business, Strategy and Operations

We may not succeed in preserving and enhancing the value of the Ferrari brand, which we depend upon to drive demand and revenues.

Our financial performance is influenced by the perception and recognition of the Ferrari brand, which, in turn, depends on many factors such as the design, performance, quality and image of our cars, the appeal of our dealerships and stores, the success of our promotional activities including public relations and marketing, as well as our general profile, including our brand’s image of exclusivity. The value of our brand and our ability to achieve premium pricing for Ferrari-branded products may decline if we are unable to maintain the value and image of the Ferrari brand, including, in particular, its aura of exclusivity. Maintaining the value of our brand will depend significantly on our ability to continue to produce luxury performance cars of the highest quality. The market for luxury goods generally and for luxury automobiles in particular is intensely competitive, and we may not be successful in maintaining and strengthening the appeal of our brand. Client preferences, particularly among luxury goods, can vary over time, sometimes rapidly. We are therefore exposed to changing perceptions of our brand image, particularly as we seek to attract new generations of clients and, to that end, we renovate and expand our models range. For example, the gradual expansion of hybrid engine and electric engine technology will introduce a notable change in the overall driver experience compared to the combustion engine cars of our range models to date. Any failure to preserve and enhance the value of our brand may materially and adversely affect our ability to sell our cars, to maintain premium pricing, and to extend the value of our brand into other activities profitably or at all.

We selectively license the Ferrari brand to third parties that produce and sell Ferrari-branded luxury goods and therefore we rely on our licensing partners to preserve and enhance the value of our brand. If our licensees or the manufacturers of these products do not maintain the standards of quality and exclusivity that we believe are consistent with the Ferrari brand, or if such licensees or manufacturers otherwise misuse the Ferrari brand, our reputation and the integrity and value of our brand may be damaged and our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

Our brand image depends in part on the success of our Formula 1 racing team.

The prestige, identity, and appeal of the Ferrari brand depend in part on the continued success of the Scuderia Ferrari racing team in the Formula 1 World Championship. The racing team is a key component of our marketing strategy and may be perceived by our clients as a demonstration of the technological capabilities of our sports, GT, special series and Icona cars which also supports the appeal of other Ferrari-branded luxury goods. We have focused on restoring the success of our Formula 1 racing team as our most recent Drivers’ Championship and Constructors’ Championship were in 2007 and 2008, respectively. We are focused on improving our racing results and restoring our historical position as the premier racing team. If we are unable to attract and retain the necessary talent to succeed in international competitions or devote the capital necessary to fund successful racing activities, the value of the Ferrari brand and the appeal of our cars and other luxury goods may suffer. Even if we are able to attract such talent and adequately fund our racing activities, there is no assurance that this will lead to competitive success for our racing team.

The success of our racing team depends in particular on our ability to attract and retain top drivers and racing management and engineering talent. Our primary Formula 1 drivers, team managers and other key employees of Scuderia Ferrari are critical to the success of our racing team and if we were to lose their services, this could have a material adverse effect on the success of our racing team and correspondingly the Ferrari brand. If we are unable to find adequate replacements or to attract, retain and incentivize drivers and team managers, other key employees or new qualified personnel, the success of our racing team may suffer. As the success of our racing team forms a large part of our brand identity, a sustained period without racing success could detract from the Ferrari brand and, as a result, potential clients’ enthusiasm for the Ferrari brand and their perception of our cars, which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

3

If we are unable to keep up with advances in high performance car technology, our brand and competitive position may suffer.

Performance cars are characterized by leading-edge technology which is constantly evolving. In particular, advances in racing technology often lead to improved technology in road cars. Although we invest heavily in research and development, we may be unable to maintain our leading position in high performance car technology and, as a result, our competitive position may suffer. As technologies change, we plan to upgrade or adapt our cars and introduce new models in order to continue to provide cars with the latest technology. However, our cars may not compete effectively with our competitors’ cars if we are not able to develop, source and integrate the latest technology into our cars. For example, in the next few years luxury performance cars will increasingly transition to hybrid and electric technology, albeit at a slower pace compared to mass market vehicles. See “The introduction of hybrid cars is costly and its long term success is uncertain”.

Developing and applying new automotive technologies is costly, and may become even more costly in the future as available technology advances and competition in the industry increases. If our research and development efforts do not lead to improvements in car performance relative to the competition, or if we are required to spend more to achieve comparable results, sales of our cars or our profitability may suffer.

If our car designs do not appeal to clients, our brand and competitive position may suffer.

Design and styling are an integral component of our models and our brand. Our cars have historically been characterized by distinctive designs combining the aerodynamics of a sports car with powerful, elegant lines. We believe our clients purchase our cars for their appearance as well as their performance. However, we will need to renew over time the style of our cars to differentiate the new models we produce from older models, and to reflect the broader evolution of aesthetics in our markets. We devote great efforts to the design of our cars and most of our current models are designed by Ferrari Design Centre, our in-house design team. If the design of our future models fails to meet the evolving tastes and preferences of our clients and prospective clients, or the appreciation of the wider public, our brand may suffer and our sales may be adversely affected.

The value of our brand depends in part on the automobile collector and enthusiast community.

An important factor in the connection of clients to the Ferrari brand is our strong relationship with the global community of automotive collectors and enthusiasts, particularly collectors and enthusiasts of Ferrari automobiles. This is influenced by our close ties to the automotive collectors’ community and our support of related events (such as car shows and driving events), at our headquarters in Maranello and through our dealers, the Ferrari museums and affiliations with regional Ferrari clubs. The support of this community also depends upon the perception of our cars as collectibles, which we also support through our Ferrari Classiche services, and the active resale market for our automobiles which encourages interest over the long term. The increase in the number of cars we produce relative to the number of automotive collectors and purchasers in the secondary market may adversely affect our cars’ value as collectible items and in the secondary market more broadly.

If there is a change in collector appetite or damage to the Ferrari brand, our ties to and the support we receive from this community may be diminished. Such a loss of enthusiasm for our cars from the automotive collectors’ community could harm the perception of the Ferrari brand and adversely impact our sales and profitability.

Our business is subject to changes in client preferences and trends in the automotive and luxury industry.

Our continued success depends in part on our ability to originate and define product and trends in the automotive and luxury industry, as well as to anticipate and respond promptly to changing consumer demands and automotive trends in the design, styling, technology, production, merchandising and pricing of our products. Our products must appeal to a client base whose preferences cannot be predicted with certainty and are subject to rapid change. Evaluating and responding to client preferences has become even more complex in recent years, due to our expansion in new geographical markets. The introduction of hybrid and electric technology and the associated changes in customer preferences that may follow are also a challenge we will face in future periods. See also “If we are unable to keep up with advances in high performance car technology, our brand and competitive position may suffer” and “The introduction of hybrid cars is costly and its long term success is uncertain”. If we misjudge the market for our products or are delayed in recognizing trends and customer preferences, we and our dealers may be faced with excess inventories for some cars and missed opportunities with others. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to produce, distribute and market new products efficiently or that any product category that we may expand or introduce will achieve sales levels sufficient to generate profits. We will encounter this risk, for example, as we introduce the Purosangue, a luxury high performance vehicle within the GT range that we are developing and will launch in the coming years. Furthermore this risk is particularly pronounced as we expand in accordance with our strategy into adjacent segments of the

4

luxury industry, where we do not have a level of experience and market presence comparable to the one we have in the automotive industry. Any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Demand for luxury goods, including luxury performance cars, is volatile, which may adversely affect our operating results.

Volatility of demand for luxury goods, in particular luxury performance cars, may adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. The markets in which we sell our cars have been subject to volatility in demand in recent periods. Demand for luxury automobiles depends to a large extent on general, economic, political and social conditions in a given market as well as the introduction of new vehicles and technologies. As a luxury performance car manufacturer and low volume producer, we compete with larger automobile manufacturers many of which have greater financial resources in order to withstand changes in the market and disruptions in demand. Demand for our cars may also be affected by factors directly impacting automobile prices or the cost of purchasing and operating automobiles, such as the availability and cost of financing, prices of raw materials and parts and components, fuel costs and governmental regulations, including tariffs, import regulation and other taxes, including taxes on luxury goods, resulting in limitations to the use of high performance sports cars or luxury goods more generally. Volatility in demand may lead to lower car unit sales, which may result in further downward price pressure and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. These effects may have a more pronounced impact on us given our low volume strategy and relatively smaller scale as compared to large global mass-market automobile manufacturers.

We face competition in the luxury performance car industry.

We face competition in all product categories and markets in which we operate. We compete with other international luxury performance car manufacturers which own and operate well-known brands of high-quality cars, some of which form part of larger automotive groups and may have greater financial resources and bargaining power with suppliers than we do, particularly in light of our policy to maintain low volumes in order to preserve and enhance the exclusivity of our cars. We believe that we compete primarily on the basis of our brand image, the performance and design of our cars, our reputation for quality and the driving experience for our customers. If we are unable to compete successfully, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Our growth strategy exposes us to risks.

Our growth strategy includes a controlled expansion of our sales and operations, including the launching of new car models and expanding sales, as well as dealer operations and workshops, in targeted growth regions internationally. In particular, our growth strategy requires us to expand operations in regions that we have identified as having relatively high growth potential. We may encounter difficulties, including more significant competition in entering and establishing ourselves in these markets.

Our growth depends on the continued success of our existing cars, as well as the successful design and introduction of new cars. Our ability to create new cars and to sustain existing car models is affected by whether we can successfully anticipate and respond to consumer preferences and car trends. The failure to develop successful new cars or delays in their launch that could result in others bringing new products and technologies to the market first, could compromise our competitive position and hinder the growth of our business. As part of our growth strategy, we plan to broaden the range of our models to capture additional customer demand for different types of vehicles and modes of utilization. For example, we are currently planning to introduce 15 new models in the 2019-2022 period (which is unprecedented for Ferrari over a similar time period). We have recently introduced the Icona limited editions, a new concept that takes inspiration from our iconic cars of the past and interprets them in a modern way with innovative materials and innovative technology. In the GT range, we are developing a luxury high performance vehicle, the Purosangue, and we are planning a new line of cars powered by V6 engines. In addition, we will gradually but rapidly expand the use of hybrid technology in our road cars, consistent with customer preferences and broader industry trends. While we will seek to ensure that these changes remain fully consistent with the Ferrari car identity, we cannot be certain that they will prove profitable and commercially successful.

Our growth strategy may expose us to new business risks that we may not have the expertise, capability or the systems to manage. This strategy will also place significant demands on us by requiring us to continuously evolve and improve our operational, financial and internal controls. Continued expansion also increases the challenges involved in maintaining high levels of quality, management and client satisfaction, recruiting, training and retaining sufficient skilled management, technical and marketing personnel. If we are unable to manage these risks or meet these demands, our growth prospects and our business, results of operation and financial condition could be adversely affected.

5

We plan to redesign our international network footprint and skill set. We also plan to open additional retail stores in international markets. We do not yet have significant experience directly operating in many of these markets, and in many of them we face established competitors. Many of these countries have different operational characteristics, including but not limited to employment and labor, transportation, logistics, real estate, environmental regulations and local reporting or legal requirements.

Consumer demand and behavior, as well as tastes and purchasing trends may differ in these markets, and as a result, sales of our products may not be successful, or the margins on those sales may not be in line with those we currently anticipate. Furthermore, such markets will have upfront short-term investment costs that may not be accompanied by sufficient revenues to achieve typical or expected operational and financial performance and therefore may be dilutive to us in the short-term. In many of these countries, there is significant competition to attract and retain experienced and talented employees.

Consequently, if our international expansion plans are unsuccessful, our business, results of operation and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Our low volume strategy may limit potential profits, and if volumes increase our brand exclusivity may be eroded.

A key to the appeal of the Ferrari brand and our marketing strategy is the aura of exclusivity and the sense of luxury which our brand conveys. A central facet to this exclusivity is the limited number of models and cars we produce and our strategy of maintaining our car waiting lists to reach the optimal combination of exclusivity and client service. Our low volume strategy is also an important factor in the prices that our clients are willing to pay for our cars. This focus on maintaining exclusivity limits our potential sales growth and profitability.

On the other hand, our current growth strategy contemplates a measured but significant increase in car sales above current levels as we target a larger customer base and modes of use, we increase our focus on GT cars and our product portfolio evolves with a broader product range.

In pursuit of our strategy, we may be unable to maintain the exclusivity of the Ferrari brand. If we are unable to balance brand exclusivity with increased production, we may erode the desirability and ultimately the consumer demand for our cars. As a result, if we are unable to increase car production meaningfully or introduce new car models without eroding the image of exclusivity in our brand we may be unable to significantly increase our revenues.

The small number of car models we produce and sell may result in greater volatility in our financial results.

We depend on the sales of a small number of car models to generate our revenues. Our current product range consists of six range models (including three sports cars and three GT cars) and two special series cars. While we anticipate significantly expanding our car offerings as part of our growth strategy through the introduction of 15 new products in the 2019-2022 period, a limited number of models will continue to account for a large portion of our revenues at any given time in the foreseeable future, compared to other automakers. Therefore, our future operating results depend upon the continued market acceptance of each model in our line-up. There can be no assurance that our cars will continue to be successful in the market, or that we will be able to launch new models on a timely basis compared to our competitors. It generally takes several years from the beginning of the development phase to the start of production for a new model and the car development process is capital intensive. As a result, we would likely be unable to replace quickly the revenue lost from one of our main car models if it does not achieve market acceptance. Furthermore, our revenues and profits may also be affected by our “special series” and limited edition cars (including the new Icona limited editions) that we launch from time to time and which are typically priced higher than our range models. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in developing, producing and marketing additional new cars that will sustain sales growth in the future.

Global economic conditions may adversely affect us.

Our sales volumes and revenues may be affected by overall general economic conditions. Deteriorating general economic conditions may affect disposable incomes and reduce consumer wealth impacting client demand, particularly for luxury goods, which may negatively impact our profitability and put downward pressure on our prices and volumes. Furthermore, during recessionary periods, social acceptability of luxury purchases may decrease and higher taxes may be more likely to be imposed on certain luxury goods including our cars, which may affect our sales. Adverse economic conditions may also affect the financial health and performance of our dealers in a manner that will affect sales of our cars or their ability to meet their commitments to us.

Many factors affect the level of consumer spending in the luxury performance car industry, including the state of the economy as a whole, stock market performance, interest and exchange rates, inflation, political uncertainty, the availability of consumer credit, tax rates, unemployment levels and other matters that influence consumer confidence. In general, although our sales have historically been comparatively resilient in periods of economic turmoil, sales of luxury goods tend to decline during recessionary periods when the level of disposable income tends to be lower or when consumer confidence is low.

We distribute our products internationally and we may be affected by downturns in general economic conditions or uncertainties regarding future economic prospects that may impact the countries in which we sell a significant portion of our products. In particular, the majority of our current sales are in the EU and in the United States; if we are unable to expand in emerging markets, a downturn in mature economies such as the EU and the United States may negatively affect our financial performance. The EU economies in particular have suffered a prolonged period of slow growth since the 2008 financial crisis. In addition, uncertainties regarding future trade arrangements and industrial policies in various countries or regions, such as in the United Kingdom following the referendum to leave the European Union (see further “We may be adversely affected by the UK determination to leave the European Union (Brexit)”) create additional macroeconomic risk. In the United States, any policy to discourage import into the United States of vehicles produced elsewhere could adversely affect our operations. Any new policies and any steps we may take to address such new policies may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Although China only represents approximately 8 percent of our net revenues and a limited proportion of our growth in the short term, slowing economic conditions in China may adversely affect our revenues in that region. A significant decline in the EU, the global economy or in the specific economies of our markets, or in consumers’ confidence, could have a material adverse effect on our business. See also “Developments in China and other growth and emerging markets may adversely affect our business”.

Developments in China and other growth and emerging markets may adversely affect our business.

We operate in a number of growth and emerging markets, both directly and through our dealers and we have experienced increasing demand in China and other regions in Asia.

We believe we have potential for further success in new geographies, in particular in China, but also more generally in Asia, recognizing the increasing personal wealth in these markets. While demand in these markets has increased in recent years due to sustained economic growth and growth in personal income and wealth, we are unable to foresee the extent to which economic growth in these emerging markets will be sustained. For example, rising geopolitical tensions and potential slowdowns in the rate of growth there and in other emerging markets could limit the opportunity for us to increase unit sales and revenues in those regions in the near term.

Our exposure to growth and emerging countries is likely to increase, as we pursue expanded sales in such countries. Economic and political developments in emerging markets, including economic crises or political instability, have had and could have in the future material adverse effects on our results of operations and financial condition. Further, in certain markets in which we or our dealers operate, required government approvals may limit our ability to act quickly in making decisions on our operations in those markets. Other government actions may also impact the market for luxury goods in these markets, such as tax changes or the active discouragement of luxury purchases.

Maintaining and strengthening our position in these growth and emerging markets is a key component of our global growth strategy. However, initiatives from several global luxury automotive manufacturers have increased competitive pressures for luxury cars in several emerging markets. As these markets continue to grow, we anticipate that additional competitors, both international and domestic, will seek to enter these markets and that existing market participants will try to aggressively protect or increase their market share. Increased competition may result in pricing pressures, reduced margins and our inability to gain or hold market share, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. See also “Global economic conditions may adversely affect us”.

We may be adversely affected by the UK determination to leave the European Union (Brexit).

In a June 23, 2016, referendum, the United Kingdom voted to terminate the UK’s membership in the European Union (“Brexit”). On March 29, 2017, the United Kingdom formally notified the European Union of its intention to withdraw pursuant to Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty. Negotiations to determine the future terms of the UK’s relationship with the European Union, including the terms of trade between the UK and the member states in the EU remain ongoing. Any effect of Brexit is expected to depend on the agreements, if any, that may be negotiated between the UK and the EU with respect to reciprocal market access and custom arrangements, during any transitional period and more permanently. Failure to reach appropriate agreements could adversely affect European or worldwide economic or market conditions. It is possible that there will be greater restrictions on

7

imports and exports between the UK and European Union countries and increased regulatory complexities which may prove challenging and costly. Approximately 9 percent of our cars and spare parts net revenues in 2018 were generated in the UK and we do not have any other significant operations in the UK, therefore, we do not believe that our global operations would be affected materially by Brexit. However, any adverse effect of Brexit on us or on global or regional economic or market conditions could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition as customers may reduce or delay spending decisions on our products.

Our success depends largely on the ability of our current management team to operate and manage effectively.

Our success depends on the ability of our senior executives and other members of management to effectively manage our business as a whole and individual areas of the business. Our employees, particularly in our production facilities in and around Maranello, Italy include many highly skilled engineers, technicians and artisans. If we were to lose the services of any of these senior executives or key employees, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. We have developed management succession plans that we believe are appropriate in the circumstances, although it is difficult to predict with any certainty that we will replace these individuals with persons of equivalent experience and capabilities. If we are unable to find adequate replacements or to attract, retain and incentivize senior executives, other key employees or new qualified personnel, our business, results of operations and financial condition may suffer.

We rely on our dealer network to provide sales and services.

We do not own our Ferrari dealers and virtually all of our sales are made through our network of dealerships located throughout the world. If our dealers are unable to provide sales or service quality that our clients expect or do not otherwise adequately project the Ferrari image and its aura of luxury and exclusivity, the Ferrari brand may be negatively affected. We depend on the quality of our dealership network and our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected if our dealers suffer financial difficulties or otherwise are unable to perform to our expectations. Furthermore, we may experience disagreements or disputes in the course of our relationship with our dealers or upon termination which may lead to financial costs, disruptions and reputational harm.

Our growth strategy also depends on our ability to attract a sufficient number of quality new dealers to sell our products in new areas. We may face competition from other luxury performance car manufacturers in attracting quality new dealers, based on, among other things, dealer margin, incentives and the performance of other dealers in the region. If we are unable to attract a sufficient number of new Ferrari dealers in targeted growth areas, our prospects could be materially adversely affected.

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.

Our business depends on a significant number of suppliers, which provide the raw materials, components, parts and systems we require to manufacture cars and parts and to operate our business. We use a variety of raw materials in our business including aluminum, and precious metals such as palladium and rhodium. We source materials from a limited number of suppliers. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to maintain access to these raw materials, and in some cases this access may be affected by factors outside of our control and the control of our suppliers. In addition, prices for these raw materials fluctuate and while we seek to manage this exposure, we may not be successful in mitigating these risks.

As with raw materials, we are also at risk of supply disruption and shortages in parts and components we purchase for use in our cars. We source a variety of key components from third parties, including transmissions, brakes, driving-safety systems, navigation systems, mechanical, electrical and electronic parts, plastic components as well as castings and tires, which makes us dependent upon the suppliers of such components. In the future, we will also require a greater number of batteries and other components of hybrid engines as we introduce hybrid technology in our range model offering, and we expect producers of batteries will be called to increase the levels of supply as the shift to hybrid or electric technology gathers pace in the industry. While we obtain components from multiple sources whenever possible, similar to other small volume car manufacturers, most of the key components we use in our cars are purchased by us from single source suppliers. We generally do not qualify alternative sources for most of the single-sourced components we use in our cars and we do not maintain long-term agreements with a number of our suppliers. Furthermore, we have limited ability to monitor the financial stability of our suppliers.

While we believe that we may be able to establish alternate supply relationships and can obtain or engineer replacement components for our single-sourced components, we may be unable to do so in the short term, or at all, at prices or costs that we believe are reasonable. Qualifying alternate suppliers or developing our own replacements for certain highly customized components of our cars may be time consuming, costly and may force us to make costly modifications to the designs of our

8

cars. For example, Takata Corporation (“Takata”) is currently the principal supplier of the airbags installed in our cars. Defective airbags manufactured by Takata have led to widespread recalls by several automotive manufacturers starting in 2015, including us (see further “Car recalls may be costly and may harm our reputation”; see also “Item 4.B. Business Overview—Regulatory Matters—Vehicle safety”. Takata filed for bankruptcy protection in Japan and the United States in June 2017. Failure by Takata to continue the supply of airbags may cause significant disruption to our operations.

In the past, we have replaced certain suppliers because they failed to provide components that met our quality control standards. The loss of any single or limited source supplier or the disruption in the supply of components from these suppliers could lead to delays in car deliveries to our clients, which could adversely affect our relationships with our clients and also materially and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Supply of raw materials, parts and components may also be disrupted or interrupted by natural disasters, as was the case in 2012 following the earthquake in the Emilia Romagna region of Italy.

Changes in our supply chain have in the past resulted and may in the future result in increased costs and delays in car production. We have also experienced cost increases from certain suppliers in order to meet our quality targets and development timelines and because of design changes that we have made. We may experience similar cost increases in the future. Additionally, we are negotiating with existing suppliers for cost reductions, seeking new and less expensive suppliers for certain parts, and attempting to redesign certain parts to make them less expensive to produce. If we are unsuccessful in our efforts to control and reduce supplier costs while maintaining a stable source of high quality supplies, our operating results will suffer. Additionally, cost reduction efforts may disrupt our normal production processes, thereby harming the quality or volume of our production.

Furthermore, if our suppliers fail to provide components in a timely manner or at the level of quality necessary to manufacture our cars, our clients may face longer waiting periods which could result in negative publicity, harm our reputation and relationship with clients and have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

We depend on our manufacturing facilities in Maranello and Modena.

We assemble all of the cars that we sell and manufacture, and all of the engines we use in our cars and sell to Maserati, at our production facility in Maranello, Italy, where we also have our corporate headquarters. We manufacture all of our car chassis in a nearby facility in Modena, Italy. Our Maranello or Modena plants could become unavailable either permanently or temporarily for a number of reasons, including contamination, power shortage or labor unrest. Alternatively, changes in law and regulation, including export, tax and employment laws and regulations, or economic conditions, including wage inflation, could make it uneconomic for us to continue manufacturing our cars in Italy. In the event that we were unable to continue production at either of these facilities or it became uneconomic for us to continue to do so, we would need to seek alternative manufacturing arrangements which would take time and reduce our ability to produce sufficient cars to meet demand. Moving manufacturing to other locations may also affect the perception of our brand and car quality among our clients. Such a transfer would materially reduce our revenues and could require significant investment, which as a result could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Maranello and Modena are located in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy which has the potential for seismic activity. For instance, in 2012 a major earthquake struck the region, causing production at our facilities to be temporarily suspended for a day. If major disasters such as earthquakes, fires, floods, hurricanes, wars, terrorist attacks, pandemics or other events occur, our headquarters and production facilities may be seriously damaged, or we may stop or delay production and shipment of our cars. As such damage from disasters or unpredictable events could have a material adverse impact on our business, results from operations and financial condition.

We rely on our licensing and franchising partners to preserve the value of our licenses and the failure to maintain such partners could harm our business.

We currently have multi-year agreements with licensing partners for various Ferrari-branded products in the sports, lifestyle and luxury retail segments. We also have multi-year agreements with franchising partners for our Ferrari stores and theme park. In the future, we may enter into additional licensing or franchising arrangements. Many of the risks associated with our own products also apply to our licensed products and franchised stores. In addition, there are unique problems that our licensing or franchising partners may experience, including risks associated with each licensing partner’s ability to obtain capital, manage its labor relations, maintain relationships with its suppliers, manage its credit and bankruptcy risks, and maintain client relationships. While we maintain significant control over the products produced for us by our licensing partners and the franchisees running our Ferrari stores and theme parks, any of the foregoing risks, or the inability of any of our licensing or franchising partners to execute on the expected design and quality of the licensed products, Ferrari stores and theme park, or otherwise

9

exercise operational and financial control over its business, may result in loss of revenue and competitive harm to our operations in the product categories where we have entered into such licensing or franchising arrangements. While we select our licensing and franchising partners with care, any negative publicity surrounding such partners could have a negative effect on licensed products, the Ferrari stores and theme parks or the Ferrari brand. Further, while we believe that we could replace our existing licensing or franchising partners if required, our inability to do so for any period of time could materially adversely affect our revenues and harm our business.

We depend on the strength of our trademarks and other intellectual property rights.

We believe that our trademarks and other intellectual property rights are fundamental to our success and market position. Therefore, our business depends on our ability to protect and promote our trademarks and other intellectual property rights. Accordingly, we devote substantial efforts to the establishment and protection of our trademarks and other intellectual property rights such as registered designs and patents on a worldwide basis. We believe that our trademarks and other intellectual property rights are adequately supported by applications for registrations, existing registrations and other legal protections in our principal markets. However, we cannot exclude the possibility that our intellectual property rights may be challenged by others, or that we may be unable to register our trademarks or otherwise adequately protect them in some jurisdictions. If a third party were to register our trademarks, or similar trademarks, in a country where we have not successfully registered such trademarks, it could create a barrier to our commencing trade under those marks in that country.

Third parties may claim that we infringe their intellectual property rights.

We believe that we hold all the rights required for our business operations (including intellectual property rights and third-party licenses). However, we are exposed to potential claims from third parties alleging that we infringe their intellectual property rights, since many competitors and suppliers also submit patent applications for their inventions and secure patent protection or other intellectual property rights. If we are unsuccessful in defending against any such claim, we may be required to pay damages or comply with injunctions which may disrupt our operations. We may also as a result be forced to enter into royalty or licensing agreements on unfavorable terms or to redesign products to comply with third parties’ intellectual property rights.

Our revenues from Formula 1 activities may decline and our related expenses may grow.

Revenues from our Formula 1 activities depend principally on the income from our sponsorship agreements and on our share of Formula 1 revenues from broadcasting and other sources. See “Item 4.B. Business Overview—Formula 1 Activities.” If we are unable to renew our existing sponsorship agreements or if we enter into new or renewed sponsorship agreements with less favorable terms, our revenues would decline. In addition, our share of profits related to Formula 1 activities may decline if either our team’s performance worsens compared to other competing teams, or if the overall Formula 1 business suffers, including potentially as a result of increasing popularity of the FIA Formula E championship. Furthermore, in order to compete effectively on track we have been investing significant resources in research and development and to competitively compensate the best available drivers and other racing team members. These expenses also vary based on changes in Formula 1 regulations that require modification to our racing engines and cars. These expenses are expected to continue, and may grow further, including as a result of any changes in Formula 1 regulations, which would negatively affect our results of operations.

In addition, extensive talks were held in 2018 and are continuing among the owners of the Formula 1 business and all teams with regards to the arrangements relating to the participation of Ferrari and the other teams competing in the championship in the period following the 2020 expiration of the current arrangements between racing teams and the operator of Formula 1. We cannot be certain that we or other racing teams will be successful in negotiating acceptable terms and conditions for continued participation. If we were to withdraw from Formula 1 this would affect our marketing and brand strategies and we currently are unable to predict the consequences on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Engine production revenues are dependent on Maserati’s ability to sell its cars.

We produce V8 and V6 engines for Maserati. We have a multi-year arrangement with Maserati to provide V6 engines through 2020, which may be followed by further production runs in future periods. While Maserati is required to compensate us for certain production costs we may incur penalties from our suppliers, in the event that the sales of Maserati cars decline, or do not increase at the expected rate, such an event would adversely affect our revenues from the sale of engines.

10

We face risks associated with our international operations, including unfavorable regulatory, political, tax and labor conditions and establishing ourselves in new markets, all of which could harm our business.

We currently have international operations and subsidiaries in various countries and jurisdictions in Europe, North America and Asia that are subject to the legal, political, regulatory, tax and social requirements and economic conditions in these jurisdictions. Additionally, as part of our growth strategy, we will continue to expand our sales, maintenance, and repair services internationally. However, such expansion requires us to make significant expenditures, including the establishment of local operating entities, hiring of local employees and establishing facilities in advance of generating any revenue. We are subject to a number of risks associated with international business activities that may increase our costs, impact our ability to sell our cars and require significant management attention. These risks include:

• conforming our cars to various international regulatory and safety requirements where our cars are sold, or homologation;

• difficulty in establishing, staffing and managing foreign operations;

• difficulties attracting clients in new jurisdictions;

• foreign government taxes, regulations and permit requirements, including foreign taxes that we may not be able to offset against taxes imposed upon us in Italy;

• fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, including risks related to any interest rate swap or other hedging activities we undertake;

• our ability to enforce our contractual and intellectual property rights, especially in those foreign countries that do not respect and protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the United States, Japan and European countries, which increases the risk of unauthorized, and uncompensated, use of our technology;

• European Union and foreign government trade restrictions, customs regulations, tariffs and price or exchange controls;

• foreign labor laws, regulations and restrictions;

• preferences of foreign nations for domestically produced cars;

• changes in diplomatic and trade relationships;

• political instability, natural disasters, war or events of terrorism; and

• the strength of international economies.

If we fail to successfully address these risks, many of which we cannot control, our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially harmed.

New laws, regulations, or policies of governmental organizations regarding increased fuel economy requirements, reduced greenhouse gas or pollutant emissions, or vehicle safety, or changes in existing laws, may have a significant effect on our costs of operation and/or how we do business.

We are subject throughout the world to comprehensive and constantly evolving laws, regulations and policies. We expect the extent of the legal and regulatory requirements affecting our business and our costs of compliance to continue to increase significantly in the future. In Europe and the United States, for example, significant governmental regulation is driven by environmental, fuel economy, vehicle safety and noise emission concerns. Evolving regulatory requirements could significantly affect our product development plans and may limit the number and types of cars we sell and where we sell them, which may affect our revenue. Governmental regulations may increase the costs we incur to design, develop and produce our cars and may affect our product portfolio. Regulation may also result in a change in the character or performance characteristics of our cars which may render them less appealing to our clients. We anticipate that the number and extent of these regulations, and their effect on our cost structure and product line-up, will increase significantly in the future.

Current European legislation limits fleet average greenhouse gas emissions for new passenger cars. Due to our small volume manufacturer (“SVM”) status we benefit from a derogation from the existing emissions requirement and we are instead required to meet, by 2021, alternative targets for our fleet of EU-registered vehicles.

In the United States, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”) have set the federal standards for passenger cars and light trucks to meet certain combined average greenhouse gas (“GHG”) and fuel economy (“CAFE”) levels and more stringent standards have been prescribed for model years 2017 through 2025. As an SVM, we expect to benefit from a derogation from currently applicable standards. We have also petitioned the EPA for alternative standards for the model years 2017-2021 and 2022-2025, which are aligned to our technical and economic capabilities. In September 2016 we petitioned NHTSA for recognition as an independent manufacturer of less than 10,000 vehicles produced globally and we proposed alternative CAFE standards for model years 2017, 2018 and 2019. Then, in December, 2017, we amended the petition by proposing alternative CAFE standards for model years 2016, 2017 and 2018 instead, covering also the 2016 model year. NHTSA have not yet responded to our petition. We will need in the future to file with NHTSA a petition for 2019-2020 and 2021 model years. If our petitions are rejected, or if we produce annually more than 10,000 vehicles globally, we will not be able to benefit from the more favorable CAFE standards levels which we have petitioned for and this may require us to purchase additional CAFE credits in order to comply with applicable CAFE standards.

In the United States, considerable uncertainty is associated with emissions regulations under the current administration. New regulations are in the process of being developed, and many existing and potential regulatory initiatives are subject to review by federal or state agencies or the courts. In August 2018 the NHTSA and the EPA issued a common proposal, the “Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient (SAFE) Vehicles Rule for model years 2021-2026 Passenger Cars and Light Trucks” (SAFE Vehicles Rule). The SAFE Vehicles Rule, if finalized, would amend certain existing Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) and tailpipe carbon dioxide emissions standards for passenger cars and light trucks and establish new standards, all covering model years 2021 through 2026. The authorities’ stated preferred alternative is to retain the model year 2020 standards (specifically, the footprint target curves for passenger cars and light trucks) for both programs through model year 2026, but comment has been sought on a range of alternatives.

In the state of California (which has been granted special authority under the Clean Air Act to set its own vehicle emission standards), the California Air Resources Board (“CARB”) has enacted regulations under which manufacturers of vehicles for model years 2012 through 2025 which are in compliance with the EPA greenhouse gas emissions regulations are also deemed to be in compliance with California’s greenhouse gas emission regulations (the so-called “deemed to comply” option). The SAFE Vehicles Rule mentioned above proposes to withdraw the waiver granted to California under the Clean Air Act to establish more stringent standards for vehicle emissions that are applicable to model years 2021 through 2025. In response to the proposed California waiver withdrawal, on December 12, 2018 the CARB amended its existing regulations to clarify that the “deemed to comply” provision shall not be available for model years 2021-2025 if the EPA standards for those years are altered via an amendment of federal regulations. Ferrari currently avails itself of the “deemed-to-comply” provision to comply with CARB greenhouse gas emissions regulations. Therefore, it may necessary to also petition the CARB for SVM alternative standards and to increase the number of tests to be performed in order to follow the CARB specific procedures.

In addition, we are subject to legislation relating to the emission of other air pollutants such as, among others, the EU “Euro 6” standards and Real Driving Emissions (RDE) standards, the “Tier 3” Motor Vehicle Emission and Fuel Standards issued by the EPA, and the Zero Emission Vehicle regulation in California, which are subject to similar derogations for SVMs, as well as vehicle safety legislation. In 2016, NHTSA published guidelines for driver distraction, for which rulemaking activities have not progressed since early 2017. The costs of compliance associated with these and similar rulemaking may be substantial.

Other governments around the world, such as those in Canada, South Korea, China and certain Middle Eastern countries are also creating new policies to address these issues which could be even more stringent than the U.S. or European requirements. As in the United States and Europe, these government policies if applied to us could significantly affect our product development plans. In China, for example, Stage IV fuel consumption regulation targets a national average fuel consumption of 5.0L/100km by 2020.

In response to severe air quality issues in Beijing and other major Chinese cities, in 2016 the Chinese government published a more stringent emissions program (National 6), providing two different levels of stringency effective starting from 2020. Moreover several autonomous Chinese regions and municipalities are implementing the requirements of the National 6 program even ahead of the mandated deadlines. To comply with current and future environmental rules related to both fuel economy and pollutant emissions, we may have to incur substantial capital expenditure and research and development expenditure to upgrade products and manufacturing facilities, which would have an impact on our cost of production and results of operation.

12

We could lose our status as an SVM in the EU, the United States and other countries if we do not continue to meet all of the necessary eligibility criteria under applicable regulations as they evolve. In order to meet these criteria we may need to modify our growth plans or other operations. Furthermore, even if we continue to benefit from derogations as an SVM, we will be subject to alternative standards that the regulators deem appropriate for our technical and economic capabilities and such alternative standards may be significantly more stringent than those currently applicable to us.

Under these existing regulations, as well as new or stricter rules or policies, we could be subject to sizable civil penalties or have to restrict or modify product offerings drastically to remain in compliance. We may have to incur substantial capital expenditures and research and development expenditures to upgrade products and manufacturing facilities, which would have an impact on our cost of production and results of operation. For a description of the regulation referred to in the paragraphs above please see “Item 4.B. Business Overview—Regulatory Matters”.

In the future, the advent of self-driving technology may result in regulatory changes that we cannot predict but may include limitations or bans on human driving in specific areas. Similarly, driving bans on combustion engine vehicles could be imposed, particularly in metropolitan areas, as a result of progress in electric and hybrid technology. Any such future developments may adversely affect the demand for our cars and our business.

In September 2017 the Chinese government issued the Administrative Measures on CAFC (Corporate Average Fuel Consumption) and NEV (New Energy Vehicle) Credits. This regulation establishes mandatory CAFC requirements, while providing additional flexibilities for SVMs (defined as manufacturers with less than 2,000 units imported in China per year) that achieve a certain minimum CAFC yearly improvement rate. Because our CAFC is expected to exceed the regulatory ceiling, we will be required to purchase NEV credits. There is no assurance that an adequate market for NEV credits will develop in China and if we are not able to secure sufficient NEV credits this may adversely affect our business in China.

The introduction of hybrid cars is costly and its long term success is uncertain.

We are gradually but rapidly introducing hybrid technology in our cars. In accordance with our strategy, we believe hybrid technology will be key to providing continuing performance upgrades to our sports car customers, and will also help us capture the preferences of the urban, affluent GT cars purchasers whom we are increasingly targeting, while helping us meet increasingly stricter emissions requirements.

While some of our past models, such as LaFerrari and LaFerrari Aperta, have included hybrid technology, the integration of such technology more broadly into our car portfolio over time may present challenges and costs. We expect to increase R&D spending in the medium term particularly on hybrid technology-related projects. Although we expect to price our future hybrid cars appropriately to recoup the investments and expenditures we are making, we cannot be certain that these expenditures will be fully recovered. In addition, this transformation of our car technology creates risks and uncertainties such as the impact on driver experience, and the impact on the cars’ residual value over time, both of which may be met with an unfavorable market reaction. Other manufacturers of luxury sports cars may be more successful in implementing hybrid technology. Longer term, although we believe that combustion engines will continue to be fundamental to the Ferrari driver experience, pure electric cars may become the prevalent technology for performance sports cars thereby displacing hybrid models. See also “If we are unable to keep up with advances in high performance car technology, our brand and competitive position may suffer.”

Because hybrid technology is a core component of our strategy, and we expect that a significant portion of our shipments will consist of hybrid vehicles in the medium term, if the introduction of hybrid cars proves too costly or is unsuccessful in the market, our business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

If our cars do not perform as expected our ability to develop, market and sell our cars could be harmed.

Our cars may contain defects in design and manufacture that may cause them not to perform as expected or that may require repair. There can be no assurance that we will be able to detect and fix any defects in the cars prior to their sale to consumers. Our cars may not perform in line with our clients’ evolving expectations or in a manner that equals or exceeds the performance characteristics of other cars currently available. For example, our newer cars may not have the durability or longevity of current cars, and may not be as easy to repair as other cars currently on the market. Any product defects or any other failure of our performance cars to perform as expected could harm our reputation and result in adverse publicity, lost revenue, delivery delays, product recalls, product liability claims, harm to our brand and reputation, and significant warranty and other expenses, and could have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition.

13

Car recalls may be costly and may harm our reputation.

We have in the past and we may from time to time in the future be required to recall our products to address performance, compliance or safety-related issues. We may incur costs for these recalls, including replacement parts and labor to remove and replace the defective parts. For example, in the course of 2015 and 2016, we issued a series of recalls relating to defective air bags manufactured by Takata and installed on certain of our models. Also in light of uncertainties in our ability to recover the recall costs from Takata (which filed for bankruptcy in June 2017), we recorded a provision regarding this matter in the second quarter of 2016 for an amount of €37 million. This provision amounted to €25 million as of December 31, 2018. For a description of these and other recent recalls , see “Item 4.B. Business Overview—Regulatory Matters—Vehicle safety”. In addition, regulatory oversight of recalls, particularly in the vehicle safety, has increased recently. Any product recalls can harm our reputation with clients, particularly if consumers call into question the safety, reliability or performance of our cars. Any such recalls could harm our reputation and result in adverse publicity, lost revenue, delivery delays, product liability claims and other expenses, and could have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition.

We may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm our financial condition and liquidity if we are not able to successfully defend or insure against such claims.

We may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm our business, operating results and financial condition. The automobile industry experiences significant product liability claims and we have inherent risk of exposure to claims in the event our cars do not perform as expected or malfunction resulting in personal injury or death. A successful product liability claim against us could require us to pay a substantial monetary award. Moreover, a product liability claim could generate substantial negative publicity about our cars and business, adversely affecting our reputation and inhibiting or preventing commercialization of future cars which could have a material adverse effect on our brand, business, operating results and financial condition. While we seek to insure against product liability risks, insurance may be insufficient to protect against any monetary claims we may face and will not mitigate any reputational harm. Any lawsuit seeking significant monetary damages may have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business and financial condition. We may not be able to secure additional product liability insurance coverage on commercially acceptable terms or at reasonable costs when needed, particularly if we face liability for our products and are forced to make a claim under such a policy.

We are exposed to risks in connection with product warranties as well as the provision of services.

A number of our contractual and legal requirements oblige us to provide extensive warranties to our clients, dealers and national distributors. There is a risk that, relative to the guarantees and warranties granted, the calculated product prices and the provisions for our guarantee and warranty risks have been set or will in the future be set too low. There is also a risk that we will be required to extend the guarantee or warranty originally granted in certain markets for legal reasons, or provide services as a courtesy or for reasons of reputation where we are not legally obliged to do so, and for which we will generally not be able to recover from suppliers or insurers.

Our insurance coverage may not be adequate to protect us against all potential losses to which we may be subject, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We maintain insurance coverage that we believe is adequate to cover normal risks associated with the operation of our business. However, there can be no assurance that any claim under our insurance policies will be honored fully or timely, our insurance coverage will be sufficient in any respect or our insurance premiums will not increase substantially. Accordingly, to the extent that we suffer loss or damage that is not covered by insurance or which exceeds our insurance coverage, or have to pay higher insurance premiums, our financial condition may be affected. 

Improper conduct of employees, agents, or other representatives could adversely affect our reputation and our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Our compliance controls, policies, and procedures may not in every instance protect us from acts committed by our employees, agents, contractors, or collaborators that would violate the laws or regulations of the jurisdictions in which we operate, including employment, foreign corrupt practices, environmental, competition, and other laws and regulations. Such improper actions could subject us to civil or criminal investigations, and monetary and injunctive penalties. In particular, our business activities may be subject to anti-corruption laws, regulations or rules of other countries in which we operate. If we fail to comply with any of these regulations, it could adversely impact our operating results and our financial condition. In addition, actual or alleged violations could damage our reputation and our ability to conduct business. Furthermore, detecting, investigating,

14

and resolving any actual or alleged violation is expensive and can consume significant time and attention of our executive management.

A disruption in our information technology could compromise confidential and sensitive information.

We depend on our information technology and data processing systems to operate our business, and a significant malfunction or disruption in the operation of our systems, human error, disruption, or interruption to power supply, or a security breach that compromises the confidential and sensitive information stored in those systems, could disrupt our business and adversely impact our ability to compete. Our ability to keep our business operating effectively depends on the functional and efficient operation by us and our third party service providers of our information, data processing and telecommunications systems, including our car design, manufacturing, inventory tracking and billing and payment systems. We rely on these systems to enable a number of business processes and help us make a variety of day-to-day business decisions as well as to track transactions, billings, payments and inventory. Such systems are susceptible to malfunctions and interruptions due to equipment damage, power outages, and a range of other hardware, software and network problems. Those systems are also susceptible to cybercrime, or threats of intentional disruption, which are increasing in terms of sophistication and frequency, with the consequence that such cyber incidents may remain undetected for long periods of time. For any of these reasons, we may experience system malfunctions or interruptions. Although our systems are diversified, including multiple server locations and a range of software applications for different regions and functions, and we periodically assess and implement actions to ameliorate risks to our systems, a significant or large scale malfunction or interruption of our systems could adversely affect our ability to manage and keep our operations running efficiently, and damage our reputation if we are unable to track transactions and deliver products to our dealers and clients. A malfunction that results in a wider or sustained disruption to our business could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition to supporting our operations, we use our systems to collect and store confidential and sensitive data, including information about our business, our clients and our employees. As our technology continues to evolve, we anticipate that we will collect and store even more data in the future, and that our systems will increasingly use remote communication features that are sensitive to both willful and unintentional security breaches. Much of our value is derived from our confidential business information, including car design, proprietary technology and trade secrets, and to the extent the confidentiality of such information is compromised, we may lose our competitive advantage and our car sales may suffer. We also collect, retain and use certain personal information, including data we gather from clients for product development and marketing purposes, and data we obtain from employees. Therefore we are subject to a variety of ever-changing data protection and privacy laws on a global basis, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation, which came into force on May 25, 2018. To an increasing extent, the functionality and controls of our cars depend on in-vehicle information technology. Furthermore, such technology is capable of storing an increasing amount of personal information belonging to our customers. Any unauthorized access to in-vehicle IT systems may compromise the car security or the privacy of our customers’ information and expose us to claims as well as reputational damage. Ultimately, any significant compromise in the integrity of our data security could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our indebtedness could adversely affect our operations and we may face difficulties in servicing or refinancing our debt.

As of December 31, 2018, our gross consolidated debt was approximately €1,927 million (which includes our financial services), including €500 million aggregate principal amount of 1.500 percent notes due 2023, and €700 million aggregate principal amount of 0.250 percent notes due 2021, see “Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources”. Our current and long-term debt requires us to dedicate a portion of our cash flow to service interest and principal payments and, if interest rates rise, this amount may increase. In addition, our existing debt may limit our ability to raise further capital to execute our growth strategy or otherwise may place us at a competitive disadvantage relative to competitors that have less debt. The agreements governing our indebtedness do not prohibit the incurrence of additional indebtedness. To the extent we become more leveraged, the risks described above would increase. We may also have difficulty refinancing our existing debt or incurring new debt on terms that we would consider to be commercially reasonable, if at all.

Car sales depend in part on the availability of affordable financing.

In certain regions, financing for new car sales has been available at relatively low interest rates for several years due to, among other things, expansive government monetary policies. Recent pronouncements of governments and central banks point to a change in the policy environment that may lead to a gradual contraction of monetary policies in coming periods. To the extent that interest rates rise generally, market rates for new car financing are expected to rise as well, which may make our cars less affordable to clients or cause consumers to purchase less expensive cars, adversely affecting our results of operations and financial condition. Additionally, if consumer interest rates increase substantially or if financial service providers tighten lending standards or restrict their lending to certain classes of credit, our clients may choose not to, or may not be able to, obtain financing to purchase our cars.

15

We may not be able to provide adequate access to financing for our dealers and clients, and our financial services operations may be disrupted.

Our dealers enter into wholesale financing arrangements to purchase cars from us to hold in inventory or to use in showrooms and facilitate retail sales, and retail clients use a variety of finance and lease programs to acquire cars.

In most markets, we rely on controlled finance companies and commercial relationships with third parties, including third party financial institutions, to provide financing to our dealers and retail clients. Finance companies are subject to various risks that could negatively affect their ability to provide financing services at competitive rates, including:

• the performance of loans and leases in their portfolio, which could be materially affected by delinquencies or defaults;

• higher than expected car return rates and the residual value performance of cars they lease; and

• fluctuations in interest rates and currency exchange rates.

Furthermore, to help fund our retail and wholesale financing business, our financial services companies also access forms of funding available from the banking system in each market, including sales or securitization of receivables either in negotiated sales or through securitization programs. For example, in 2016, Ferrari Financial Services Inc. carried out revolving securitizations raising an aggregate of $481 million of initial proceeds. At December 31, 2018, an amount of $782 million was outstanding under revolving securitizations carried out by Ferrari Financial Services Inc. See “Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources”.Should we lose the ability to access the securitization market at advantageous terms or at all, the funding of our wholesale financing business would become more difficult and expensive and our financial condition may be adversely affected.

Any financial services provider, including our controlled finance companies, will face other demands on its capital, as well as liquidity issues relating to other investments or to developments in the credit markets. Furthermore, they may be subject to regulatory changes that may increase their costs, which may impair their ability to provide competitive financing products to our dealers and retail clients. To the extent that a financial services provider is unable or unwilling to provide sufficient financing at competitive rates to our dealers and retail clients, such dealers and retail clients may not have sufficient access to financing to purchase or lease our cars. As a result, our car sales and market share may suffer, which would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Our dealer and retail customer financing in Europe are mainly provided through our partnership with FCA Bank S.p.A. (“FCA Bank”), a joint venture between FCA Italy S.p.A. and Crédit Agricole Consumer Finance S.A. (“CACF”). If we fail to maintain our partnership with FCA Bank or in the event of a termination of the joint venture or change of control of one of our joint venture partners, we may not be able to find a suitable alternative partner with similar resources and experience and continue to offer financing services to support the sales of Ferrari cars in key European markets, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Labor laws and collective bargaining agreements with our labor unions could impact our ability to operate efficiently.

All of our production employees are represented by trade unions, are covered by collective bargaining agreements and/or are protected by applicable labor relations regulations that may restrict our ability to modify operations and reduce costs quickly in response to changes in market conditions. These regulations and the provisions in our collective bargaining agreements may impede our ability to restructure our business successfully to compete more efficiently and effectively, especially with those automakers whose employees are not represented by trade unions or are subject to less stringent regulations, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

We are subject to risks associated with exchange rate fluctuations, interest rate changes, credit risk and other market risks.

We operate in numerous markets worldwide and are exposed to market risks stemming from fluctuations in currency and interest rates. The exposure to currency risk is mainly linked to the differences in geographic distribution of our sourcing and manufacturing activities from those in our commercial activities, as a result of which our cash flows from sales are denominated in currencies different from those connected to purchases or production activities. For example, we incur a large portion of our capital and operating expenses in Euro while we receive the majority of our revenues in currencies other than Euro. In addition, foreign exchange movements might also negatively affect the relative purchasing power of our clients which could also have an adverse effect on our results of operations. For example, the U.S. Dollar gradually appreciated against the

16

Euro in the first half of 2018, to remain relatively stable until early 2019, while the pound sterling remained subject to a high degree of volatility against the Euro. If the U.S. Dollar were to depreciate against the Euro, we expect that it would adversely impact our revenues and results of operations.Changes in exchange rates between the Euro on the one hand and, on the other hand, the main foreign currencies in which we operate, also affect our revenues and results of operations. See “Item 5. “Operating and Financial Review, Trends, Uncertainties and Opportunities”.

We seek to manage risks associated with fluctuations in currency through financial hedging instruments. Although we seek to manage our foreign currency risk in order to minimize any negative effects caused by rate fluctuations, including through hedging activities, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so successfully, and our business, results of operations and financial condition could nevertheless be adversely affected by fluctuations in market rates, particularly if these conditions persist.

Our financial services activities are also subject to the risk of insolvency of dealers and retail clients, as well as unfavorable economic conditions in markets where these activities are carried out. Despite our efforts to mitigate such risks through the credit approval policies applied to dealers and retail clients, there can be no assurances that we will be able to successfully mitigate such risks, particularly with respect to a general change in economic conditions.

Changes in tax, tariff or fiscal policies could adversely affect demand for our products.

Imposition of any additional taxes and levies designed to limit the use of automobiles could adversely affect the demand for our vehicles and our results of operations. Changes in corporate and other taxation policies as well as changes in export and other incentives given by various governments or import or tariff policies could also adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, in the last months of 2018, the United States administration declared that it is considering imposing new tariffs on imported cars. Considerable uncertainty surrounds the introduction and scope of tariffs by the United States or other countries, as well as the potential for additional trade actions by the United States or other countries. The impact of any such tariffs on our operations and results is uncertain and could be significant, and we can provide no assurance that any strategies we implement to mitigate the impact of such tariffs or other trade actions will be successful. While we are managing our product development and production operations on a global basis to reduce costs and lead times, unique national or regional standards can result in additional costs for product development, testing and manufacturing. Governments often require the implementation of new requirements during the middle of a product cycle, which can be substantially more expensive than accommodating these requirements during the design of a new product. The imposition of any additional taxes and levies or change in government policy designed to limit the use of high performance sports cars or automobiles more generally could also adversely affect the demand for our cars. The occurrence of the above may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If we were to lose our Authorized Economic Operator certificate, we may be required to modify our current business practices and to incur increased costs, as well as experience shipment delays.

Because we ship and sell our cars in numerous countries, the customs regulations of various jurisdictions are important to our business and operations. To expedite customs procedure, we applied for, and currently hold, the European Union’s Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) certificate. The AEO certificate is granted to operators that meet certain requirements regarding supply chain security and the safety and compliance with law of the operator’s customs controls and procedures. Operators are audited periodically for continued compliance with the requirements. The AEO certificate allows us to benefit from special expedited customs treatment, which significantly facilitates the shipment of our cars in the various markets where we operate. The AEO certificate is currently subject to mandatory audit review, to be completed by May 1, 2019, according to the new European Customs Legislation and therefore we are required to implement all necessary organization changes in order to comply with the new requirements. If we were to lose the AEO status, including for failure to meet one of the certification’s requirements, we would be required to change our business practices and to adopt standard customs procedures for the shipment of our cars. This could result in increased costs and shipment delays, which, in turn, could negatively affect our results of operations.

17

Risks Related to our Common Shares

The market price and trading volume of our common shares may be volatile, which could result in rapid and substantial losses for our shareholders.

The market price of our common shares may be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations. In addition, the trading volume of our common shares may fluctuate and cause significant price variations to occur. If the market price of our common shares declines significantly, a shareholder may be unable to sell their common shares at or above their purchase price, if at all. The market price of our common shares may fluctuate or decline significantly in the future. Some of the factors that could negatively affect the price of our common shares, or result in fluctuations in the price or trading volume of our common shares, include:

• variations in our operating results, or failure to meet the market’s earnings expectations;

• publication of research reports about us, the automotive industry or the luxury industry, or the failure of securities analysts to cover our common shares;

• departures of any members of our management team or additions or departures of other key personnel;

• adverse market reaction to any indebtedness we may incur or securities we may issue in the future;

• actions by shareholders;

• changes in market valuations of similar companies;

• changes or proposed changes in laws or regulations, or differing interpretations thereof, affecting our business, or enforcement of these laws and regulations, or announcements relating to these matters;

• adverse publicity about the automotive industry or the luxury industry generally, or particularly scandals relating to those industries, specifically;

• litigation and governmental investigations; and

• general market and economic conditions.

The loyalty voting program may affect the liquidity of our common shares and reduce our common share price.

The implementation of our loyalty voting program could reduce the trading liquidity and adversely affect the trading prices of our common shares. The loyalty voting program is intended to reward our shareholders for maintaining long-term share ownership by granting initial shareholders and persons holding our common shares continuously for at least three years the option to elect to receive special voting shares. Special voting shares cannot be traded and, if common shares participating in the loyalty voting program are sold they must be deregistered from the loyalty register and any corresponding special voting shares transferred to us for no consideration (om niet). This loyalty voting program is designed to encourage a stable shareholder base and, conversely, it may deter trading by shareholders that may be interested in participating in our loyalty voting program. Therefore, the loyalty voting program may reduce liquidity in our common shares and adversely affect their trading price.

The interests of our largest shareholders may differ from the interests of other shareholders.

Exor N.V. (“Exor”) is our largest shareholder, holding approximately 23.7 percent of our outstanding common shares and approximately 33.6 percent of our voting power (as of February 15, 2019). Therefore, Exor has a significant influence over these matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders, including matters such as adoption of the annual financial statements, declarations of annual dividends, the election and removal of the members of our board of directors (the “Board of Directors”), capital increases and amendments to our articles of association. In addition, as of February 15, 2019, Piero Ferrari, the Vice Chairman of Ferrari, holds approximately 10.1 percent of our outstanding common shares and approximately 15.5 percent of voting interest in us (as of February 15, 2019). As a result, he also has influence in matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders. Exor and Piero Ferrari informed us that they have entered into a shareholder agreement pursuant to which they have undertaken to consult for the purpose of forming, where possible, a common view on the items on the agenda of shareholders meetings. See “Item 7.A. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions—Major Shareholders—Shareholders’ Agreement”. The interests

18

of Exor and Piero Ferrari may in certain cases differ from those of other shareholders. In addition, the sale of substantial amounts of our common shares in the public market by Piero Ferrari or the perception that such a sale could occur could adversely affect the prevailing market price of the common shares.

We may have potential conflicts of interest with FCA and Exor and its related companies.

Questions relating to conflicts of interest may arise between us and FCA, our former largest shareholder prior to the Separation, in a number of areas relating to common shareholdings and management, as well as our past and ongoing relationships. Even after the Separation, overlaps remain among the directors and officers of us and FCA. For example, Mr. John Elkann, our Chairman, is the Chairman and an executive director of FCA and Chief Executive Officer of Exor. Certain of our other directors and officers may also be directors or officers of FCA or Exor, our and FCA’s largest shareholder. These individuals owe duties both to us and to the other companies that they serve as officers and/or directors. This may raise conflicts as, for example, these individuals review opportunities that may be appropriate or suitable for both us and such other companies, or we pursue business transactions in which both we and such other companies have an interest, such as our arrangement to supply engines for Maserati cars. Exor holds approximately 23.7 percent of our outstanding common shares and approximately 33.6 percent of the voting power in us (as of February 15, 2019), while it holds approximately 29.0 percent of the outstanding common shares and approximately 42.1 percent of the voting power in FCA (based on SEC filings). Exor also owns a controlling interest in CNH Industrial N.V., which was part of the FCA Group before its spin-off several years ago. These ownership interests could create actual, perceived or potential conflicts of interest when these parties or our common directors and officers are faced with decisions that could have different implications for us and FCA or Exor, as applicable.

Our loyalty voting program may make it more difficult for shareholders to acquire a controlling interest in Ferrari, change our management or strategy or otherwise exercise influence over us, which may affect the market price of our common shares.

The provisions of our articles of association which establish the loyalty voting program may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or attempt to acquire, control of our company, even if a change of control were considered favorably by shareholders holding a majority of our common shares. As a result of the loyalty voting program, a relatively large proportion of the voting power of Ferrari could be concentrated in a relatively small number of shareholders who would have significant influence over us. As of February 15, 2019, Exor had approximately 23.7 percent of our outstanding common shares and a voting interest in Ferrari of approximately 33.6 percent. As of February 15, 2019, Piero Ferrari held approximately 10.1 percent of our outstanding common shares and, as a result of the loyalty voting mechanism, had approximately 15.5 percent of the voting power in our shares. In addition, Exor and Piero Ferrari informed us that they have entered into a shareholder agreement, summarized under “Item 7.A. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions—Major Shareholders—Shareholders’ Agreement”. As a result, Exor and Piero Ferrari may exercise significant influence on matters involving our shareholders. Exor and Piero Ferrari and other shareholders participating in the loyalty voting program may have the power effectively to prevent or delay change of control or other transactions that may otherwise benefit our shareholders. The loyalty voting program may also prevent or discourage shareholder initiatives aimed at changing Ferrari’s management or strategy or otherwise exerting influence over Ferrari. See “Item 10.B. Memorandum and Articles of Association—The Ferrari Shares, Articles of Association and Terms and Conditions of the Special Voting Shares.”

We are a Dutch public company with limited liability, and our shareholders may have rights different to those of shareholders of companies organized in the United States.

The rights of our shareholders may be different from the rights of shareholders governed by the laws of U.S. jurisdictions. We are a Dutch public company with limited liability (naamloze vennootschap). Our corporate affairs are governed by our articles of association and by the laws governing companies incorporated in the Netherlands. The rights of our shareholders and the responsibilities of members of our Board of Directors may be different from the rights of shareholders and the responsibilities of members of board of directors in companies governed by the laws of other jurisdictions including the United States. In the performance of its duties, our Board of Directors is required by Dutch law to consider our interests and the interests of our shareholders, our employees and other stakeholders, in all cases with due observation of the principles of reasonableness and fairness. It is possible that some of these parties will have interests that are different from, or in addition to, your interests as a shareholder.

19

We expect to maintain our status as a “foreign private issuer” under the rules and regulations of the SEC and, thus, are exempt from a number of rules under the Exchange Act of 1934 and are permitted to file less information with the SEC than a company incorporated in the United States.

As a “foreign private issuer,” we are exempt from rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that impose certain disclosure and procedural requirements for proxy solicitations under Section 14 of the Exchange Act. In addition, our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and “short-swing” profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules under the Exchange Act with respect to their purchases and sales of our common shares. Moreover, we are not required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act, nor are we required to comply with Regulation FD, which restricts the selective disclosure of material information. Accordingly, there may be less publicly available information concerning us than there is for U.S. public companies.

Our ability to pay dividends on our common shares may be limited and the level of future dividends is subject to change.

Our current dividend policy is set forth in “Item 8.A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information—Dividend Policy”. Our payment of dividends on our common shares in the future will be subject to business conditions, financial conditions, earnings, cash balances, commitments, strategic plans and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant at the time it recommends approval of the dividend. Our dividend policy is subject to change in the future based on changes in statutory requirements, market trends, strategic developments, capital requirements and a number of other factors. In addition, under our articles of association and Dutch law, dividends may be declared on our common shares only if the amount of equity exceeds the paid up and called up capital plus the reserves that have to be maintained pursuant to Dutch law or the articles of association. Further, even if we are permitted under our articles of association and Dutch law to pay cash dividends on our common shares, we may not have sufficient cash to pay dividends in cash on our common shares. We are a holding company and our operations are conducted through our subsidiaries. As a result, our ability to pay dividends primarily depends on the ability of our subsidiaries, particularly Ferrari S.p.A., to generate earnings and to provide us with the necessary financial resources.

Our maintenance of two exchange listings may adversely affect liquidity in the market for our common shares and could result in pricing differentials of our common shares between the two exchanges.

Our shares are listed on both the NYSE and the Mercato Telematico Azionario (“MTA”). The dual listing of our common shares may split trading between the NYSE and the MTA, adversely affect the liquidity of the shares and the development of an active trading market for our common shares in one or both markets and may result in price differentials between the exchanges. Differences in the trading schedules, as well as volatility in the exchange rate of the two trading currencies, among other factors, may result in different trading prices for our common shares on the two exchanges.

It may be difficult to enforce U.S. judgments against us.

We are organized under the laws of the Netherlands, and a substantial portion of our assets are outside of the United States. Most of our directors and senior management and our independent auditors are resident outside the United States, and all or a substantial portion of their respective assets may be located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for U.S. investors to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons. It may also be difficult for U.S. investors to enforce within the United States judgments against us predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts outside the United States would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained against us or our directors and officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. Therefore, it may be difficult to enforce U.S. judgments against us, our directors and officers and our independent auditors.

FCA creditors may seek to hold us liable for certain FCA obligations.

One step of our Separation from FCA included a demerger from FCA of our common shares previously held by it. In connection with a demerger under Dutch law, the demerged company may continue to be liable for certain obligations of the demerging company that exist at the time of the demerger, but only to the extent that the demerging company fails to satisfy such liabilities. Based on other actions taken as part of the Separation, we do not believe we retain any liability for obligations of FCA existing at the time of the Separation. Nevertheless, in the event that FCA fails to satisfy obligations to its creditors existing at the time of the demerger, it is possible that those creditors may seek to recover from us, claiming that we remain liable to satisfy such obligations. While we believe we would prevail against any such claim, litigation is inherently costly and uncertain and could have an adverse effect. See “Item 4.A. History and Development of the Company”.

Risks Related to Taxation

Changes to taxation or the interpretation or application of tax laws could have an adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

Our business is subject to various taxes in different jurisdictions (mainly Italy), which include, among others, the Italian corporate income tax (“IRES”), regional trade tax (“IRAP”), value added tax (“VAT”), excise duty, registration tax and other indirect taxes. We are exposed to the risk that our overall tax burden may increase in the future.

Changes in tax laws or regulations or in the position of the relevant Italian and non-Italian authorities regarding the application, administration or interpretation of these laws or regulations, particularly if applied retrospectively, could have negative effects on our current business model and have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

In order to reduce future potential disputes with tax authorities, we seek advance agreements with tax authorities on significant matters. In particular we filed a ruling application for advance pricing agreement (APA) on transfer pricing.

In addition, tax laws are complex and subject to subjective valuations and interpretive decisions, and we will periodically be subject to tax audits aimed at assessing our compliance with direct and indirect taxes. The tax authorities may not agree with our interpretations of, or the positions we have taken or intend to take on, tax laws applicable to our ordinary activities and extraordinary transactions. In case of challenges by the tax authorities to our interpretations, we could face long tax proceedings that could result in the payment of penalties and have a material adverse effect on our operating results, business and financial condition.

As a result of the demergers and the merger in connection with the Separation, we might be jointly and severally liable with FCA for certain tax liabilities arisen in the hands of FCA.

Although the Italian tax authorities confirmed in a positive advance tax ruling issued on October 9, 2015 that the demergers and the Merger that was carried out in connection with the Separation would be respected as tax-free, neutral transactions from an Italian income tax perspective, under Italian tax law we may still be held jointly and severally liable, as a result of the combined application of the rules governing the allocation of tax liabilities in case of demergers and mergers, with FCA for taxes, penalties, interest and any other tax liability arising in the actions of FCA because of violations of its tax obligations related to tax years prior to the two Demergers described in the section “Item 4.A. History and Development of the Company.”

There may be potential “Passive Foreign Investment Company” tax considerations for U.S. holders.

Shares of our stock would be stock of a “passive foreign investment company,” or a PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to a U.S. holder (as defined in “Item 10.E. Taxation—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” below) if for any taxable year in which such U.S. holder held shares of our stock, after the application of applicable “look-through rules” (i) 75 percent or more of our gross income for the taxable year consists of “passive income” (including dividends, interest, gains from the sale or exchange of investment property and rents and royalties other than rents and royalties which are received from unrelated parties in connection with the active conduct of a trade or business, as defined in applicable Treasury Regulations), or (ii) at least 50 percent of our assets for the taxable year (averaged over the year and determined based upon value) produce or are held for the production of “passive income”. U.S. persons who own shares of a PFIC are subject to a disadvantageous U.S. federal income tax regime with respect to the income derived by the PFIC, the dividends they receive from the PFIC, and the gain, if any, they derive from the sale or other disposition of their shares in the PFIC.

While we believe that shares of our stock are not stock of a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, this conclusion is based on a factual determination made annually and thus is subject to change. Moreover, our common shares may become stock of a PFIC in future taxable years if there were to be changes in our assets, income or operations. See “Item 10.E. Taxation—PFIC Considerations” for a further discussion.

21

The consequences of the loyalty voting program are uncertain.

No statutory, judicial or administrative authority directly discusses how the receipt, ownership, or disposition of special voting shares should be treated for Italian or U.S. tax purposes and as a result, the tax consequences in those jurisdictions are uncertain.

The fair market value of the special voting shares, which may be relevant to the tax consequences, is a factual determination and is not governed by any guidance that directly addresses such a situation. Because, among other things, our special voting shares are not transferable (other than, in very limited circumstances, together with the associated common shares) and a shareholder will receive amounts in respect of the special voting shares only if we are liquidated, we believe and intend to take the position that the fair market value of each special voting share is minimal. However, the relevant tax authorities could assert that the value of the special voting shares as determined by us is incorrect.

The tax treatment of the loyalty voting program is unclear and shareholders are urged to consult their tax advisors in respect of the consequences of acquiring, owning and disposing of special voting shares. See “Item 10.E. Taxation—Loyalty Voting Program” for a further discussion.

We currently benefit or seek to benefit from certain special tax regimes, which may not be available in the future.

We currently calculate taxes due in Italy based, among other things, on certain tax breaks recognized by Italian tax regulations for R&D expenses (available, with the some limitations, until fiscal year 2020 according to current regulations) and for the investments on manufacturing equipment (available until fiscal year 2019 according to current regulations), which result in a tax saving. A change in regulations or interpretation might adversely affect the availability of such exemptions and result in higher tax charges.

Italian Law No. 190 of December 2014, as subsequently amended and supplemented (Finance Act 2015) introduced an optional Patent Box regime in the Italian tax system. The Patent Box regime is a tax exemption related to, inter alia, the use of intellectual property assets. Business income derived from the use of each qualified intangible asset is partially exempted from taxation for both IRES and IRAP purposes. In September 2018 we received the mandatory ruling from the Italian tax authorities according to which we are able to significantly reduce our tax expenses. The ruling covers the period starting from 2015 and it remains in force until fiscal year 2019, following which we may not be able to benefit from a comparably favorable regime.

Item 4. Information on the Company

A. History and Development of the Company

Ferrari was incorporated as a public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap) under the laws of the Netherlands on September 4, 2015 with an indefinite duration. Our official seat (statutaire zetel) is in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and our corporate address and principal place of business is located at Via Abetone Inferiore n. 4, I-41053 Maranello (MO), Italy. Ferrari is registered with the Dutch Trade Register of the Chamber of Commerce under number 64060977. Its telephone number is +39-0536-949111. The name and address of the Company’s agent in the United States is: Ferrari North America, Inc., 50 Sylvan Avenue, Englewood Cliffs, NJ 07632. Its telephone number is +1 (201) 816 2600.

Our company is named after our founder Enzo Ferrari. An Alfa Romeo driver since 1924, Enzo Ferrari founded his own racing team, Scuderia Ferrari, in Modena in 1929 initially to race Alfa Romeo cars.  In 1939 he set up his own company, initially called Auto Avio Costruzioni.  In late 1943, Enzo Ferrari moved his headquarters from Modena to Maranello, which remains our headquarters to this day. 

In 1947, we produced our first racing car, the 125 S. The 125 S’s powerful 12 cylinder engine would go on to become synonymous with the Ferrari brand. In 1948, the first road car, the Ferrari 166 Inter, was produced. Styling quickly became an integral part of the Ferrari brand.

In 1950, we began our participation in the Formula 1 World Championship, racing in the world’s second Grand Prix in Monaco, which makes Scuderia Ferrari the longest running Formula 1 team. We won our first Constructor World Title in 1952. Our success on the world’s tracks and roads extends beyond Formula 1, including victories in some of the most important car races such as the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the world’s oldest endurance automobile race, and the 24 Hours of Daytona.

The Fiat group acquired a 50 percent stake in Ferrari S.p.A. in 1969, which increased to 90 percent in 1988, after the death of Enzo Ferrari, with the remaining 10 percent held by Enzo Ferrari’s son, Piero Ferrari.

On October 29, 2014, FCA announced the intention to separate Ferrari S.p.A. from FCA (the “Separation”). The Separation was completed on January 3, 2016 through a series of transactions, including a corporate restructuring intended to facilitate the initial public offering of our shares (the “IPO”). The IPO and the listing of common shares of our predecessor company (“Predecessor Ferrari”) on the NYSE were completed in October 2015. Following completion of the IPO, FCA owned approximately 80 percent of Predecessor Ferrari common shares, Piero Ferrari held approximately 10 percent of Predecessor Ferrari common shares and investors in the IPO held approximately 10 percent of Predecessor Ferrari common shares.

The remaining steps of the Separation were carried out through a series of corporate transactions, which occurred between January 1 and January 3, 2016, pursuant to which, the equity interests in Predecessor Ferrari previously held by FCA, corresponding to approximately 80 percent of Predecessor Ferrari common share capital, were transferred to holders of FCA common shares and FCA mandatory convertible securities. Immediately after two consecutive demergers under Dutch law, Predecessor Ferrari merged with and into Ferrari, as surviving company. Ferrari became the holding company of the Ferrari business.

On January 4, 2016 the Company also completed the listing of its common shares on the Mercato Telematico Azionario, the stock exchange managed by Borsa Italiana, under the ticker symbol RACE.

For information on the SEC’s website and our website, please refer to “Item 10.H. Documents on Display”.

B. Business Overview

Business Summary

Ferrari is among the world’s leading luxury brands focused on the design, engineering, production and sale of the world’s most recognizable luxury performance sports cars. Our brand symbolizes exclusivity, innovation, state-of-the-art sporting performance and Italian design and engineering heritage. Our name and history and the image enjoyed by our cars are closely associated with our Formula 1 racing team, Scuderia Ferrari, the most successful team in Formula 1 history. From the inaugural year of Formula 1 in 1950 through the present, Scuderia Ferrari has won 235 Grand Prix races, 16 Constructor World titles and 15 Drivers’ World titles. We believe our history of excellence, technological innovation and defining style transcends the automotive industry, and is the foundation of the Ferrari brand and image. We design, engineer and produce our cars in Maranello, Italy, and sell them in over 60 markets worldwide through a network of 167 authorized dealers operating 190 points of sale as of the end of 2018.

We believe our cars are the epitome of performance, luxury and styling. Our current sports and GT range consists of six models, including three sports cars (488 GTB, 488 Spider and 812 Superfast) and three GT cars (GTC4Lusso, GTC4Lusso T and Ferrari Portofino) and two special series cars (488 Pista and 488 Pista Spider). The Ferrari Portofino was unveiled in September 2017 and shipments began in the second quarter of 2018, while the 488 Pista was launched in March 2018 at the Geneva Motor Show, with shipments beginning in the third quarter of 2018. The 488 Pista Spider was launched in August 2018 and shipments will begin in 2019. Our most recent hypercar, the LaFerrari Aperta, was launched in 2016 to celebrate our 70^th Anniversary and finished its limited series run in 2018. The Monza SP1 and SP2 were unveiled in 2018 to kick off a new pillar in our product offering, the Icona, a line of modern cars inspired by our iconic cars of the past, with deliveries expected to begin in 2019. We also produce very limited editions series (fuori serie) and one-off cars.

In 2018, we shipped 9,251 cars and recorded net revenues of €3,420 million, EBIT of €826 million, net profit of €787 million, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) of €1,114 million, adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (Adjusted EBIT) of €825 million and Adjusted Net Profit of €645 million. For additional information regarding Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted Net Profit, which are non-GAAP measures, including a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net profit, Adjusted EBIT to EBIT and Adjusted Net Profit to net profit, see “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Whilst broadening our product portfolio to target a larger customer base, we continue to pursue a low volume production strategy in order to maintain a reputation for exclusivity and scarcity among purchasers of our cars and we carefully manage our production volumes and delivery waiting lists to promote this reputation. We divide our regional markets into EMEA, Americas, Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan and Rest of APAC, representing respectively 45.7 percent, 32.4 percent, 7.5 percent and 14.4 percent of units shipped in 2018.

We focus our marketing and promotion efforts in the investments we make in our racing activities, in particular Scuderia Ferrari’s participation in the Formula 1 World Championship, which is one of the most watched annual sports series in the world, with over 490 million television unique viewers in 2018 (based on a new viewer calculation methodology applied by Formula 1 in the 2018 season) (Source: Formula 1 Press Office). Although our most recent Formula 1 world title was in 2008, we continuously enhance our focus on Formula 1 activities with the goal of improving recent racing results and restoring our historical position as the premier racing team in Formula 1. We believe that these activities support the strength and awareness of our brand among motor enthusiasts, clients and the general public.

We license the Ferrari brand to a selected number of producers and retailers of luxury and lifestyle goods. In addition, we design, source and sell Ferrari-branded products through a network of 18 Ferrari-owned stores and 17 franchised stores (including 5 Ferrari Store Junior), as well as on our website. As one of the world’s most recognized premium luxury brands, we believe we are well positioned to selectively expand the presence of the Ferrari brand in attractive and growing lifestyle categories consistent with our image, including sportswear, watches, accessories, consumer electronics and theme parks which, we believe, enhance the brand experience of our loyal clients and Ferrari enthusiasts.

We will continue focusing our efforts on protecting and enhancing the value of our brand to preserve our strong financial profile and participate in the premium luxury market growth. We intend to selectively pursue controlled and profitable growth in existing and emerging markets while expanding the Ferrari brand to carefully selected lifestyle categories.

Industry Overview

Within the luxury goods market, we define our target market for luxury performance cars as two-door cars powered by engines producing more than 500 hp and selling at a retail price in excess of Euro 150,000 (including VAT). The luxury performance car market historically has followed relatively closely growth patterns in the broader luxury market. The luxury performance car market is generally affected by global macroeconomic conditions and, although we and certain other manufacturers have proven relatively resilient, general downturns can have a disproportionate impact on sales of luxury goods in light of the discretionary nature of consumer spending in this market. Furthermore, because of the emotional nature of the purchasing decision, economic confidence and factors such as expectations regarding future income streams as well as the social acceptability of luxury goods may impact sales.

Following the sharp recession of 2008-2009, the luxury performance car market has been resilient to further economic downturns and stagnation in the broader economy, also a result of the increase of new product launches. A sustained period of wealth creation in several Asian countries and, to a lesser extent, in the Americas, has led to an expanding population of potential consumers of luxury goods. Developing consumer preferences in the Asian markets, where the newly affluent are increasingly embracing western brands of luxury products, have also led to higher demand for cars in our segment, which are all produced by established European manufacturers.

Additionally, the growing appetite of younger affluent purchasers for luxury performance cars has led to new entrants, which in turn has resulted in higher sales overall in the market.

Unlike in other segments of the broader luxury market, however, in the luxury performance car market, a significant portion of demand is driven by new product launches. The market share of individual producers fluctuates over time reflecting the timing of product launches. New launches tend to drive sales volumes even in difficult market environments because the novelty, exclusivity and excitement of a new product is capable of creating and capturing its own demand from clients.

• Ferrari and Luxury Performance Car Industry data are updated to December 31, 2018.

• Data for the Luxury Performance Car Industry include all two door GT and sports cars with power above 500hp, and retail price above Euro 150,000 (including VAT) sold by Aston Martin, Audi, Bentley, Ferrari, Ford, Honda/Acura, Lamborghini, McLaren, Mercedes Benz, Porsche and Rolls-Royce.

The luxury performance car market has now exceeded pre-crisis levels. As shown in the chart above, our volumes in recent years have proven less volatile than our competitors’. We believe this is due to our strategy of maintaining low volumes compared to demand, as well as the higher number of models in our range and our more frequent product launches compared to our competitors.

    In 2018, our volumes in the largest 22 markets were substantially in line with 2017, primarily driven by contribution from our range models. We had a market share of 17 percent in the luxury performance car market; with 19 percent of market share in the sports car segment and 14.5 percent of market share in the GT segment. The chart below sets forth our market shares in 2018 based on volumes in our largest 22 markets by geographical area.

While we monitor our market share as an indicator of our brand appeal, we do not regard market share in the luxury performance market as particularly relevant as compared to other segments of the automotive industry. We are not focused on market share as a performance metric. Instead, we deliberately manage our supply relative to demand, to defend and promote our brand exclusivity and premium pricing.

Competition

Competition in the luxury performance car market is concentrated in a fairly small number of producers, including both large automotive companies that own luxury brands as well as small producers exclusively focused on luxury cars, like us. The luxury performance car market includes sports cars and GT cars.

In relation to sports cars our models are the 488 GTB, the 488 Spider and the 812 Superfast, as well as our latest special series models, the 488 Pista and 488 Pista Spider, and our principal competitors are Lamborghini, McLaren, Ford, Honda,

26

Porsche, Mercedes, Aston Martin and Audi. In relation to GT our models are the Ferrari Portofino, the GTC4Lusso and the GTC4Lusso T, and our principal competitors are Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Aston Martin and Mercedes.

In recent years, the market has shifted somewhat with an increased focus on the GT cars market and the lower priced range of the sports car market, with larger automotive groups expanding their offering of premium cars to enter the luxury performance car market.

Competition in the luxury performance car market is driven by the strength of the brand and the appeal of the products in terms of performance, styling, novelty and innovation as well as on the manufacturers’ ability to renew its product offerings regularly in order to continue to stimulate customer demand. Larger automotive groups with a product offering in the luxury performance car market typically have larger financial resources compared to the small luxury car producers and therefore may have more flexibility in planning for product launches and capital spending over time.

Competition among similarly positioned luxury performance cars is also driven by price and total cost of ownership. We believe that the resilience of the value of our cars after a period of ownership is an important competitive factor because it decreases the total cost of ownership for our clients and promotes repeat purchases.

Sports and GT Range, Special Series and Icona: Ferrari Line-Up Strategic Pillars

Our product offering comprises four main pillars: the sports range, the GT range, special series and Icona. Our current product range includes three sports cars, three GT cars and two special series cars, as well as two Icona cars (introduced in September 2018). We target end clients seeking high performance cars with distinctive design and state of the art technology. Within these parameters, we offer different models to meet our clients’ varying needs and to differentiate our line-up from that of other manufacturers, ranging from the exceptional performance of our sports cars to the luxury and drivability of our GT cars. Our diversified product offering includes different architectures (such as front-engine and mid-rear engine), engine sizes (V8 and V12), body styles (such as coupes and spiders), and seating (2 seaters, 2+2 seaters and 4 seaters).

We are also actively engaged in after sales activities driven, among other things, by the objective of preserving and extending the market value of the cars we sell. We believe our cars’ performance in terms of value preservation after a period of ownership significantly exceeds that of any other brand in the luxury car segment. High residual value is important to the primary market because clients, when purchasing our cars, take into account the expected resale value of the car in assessing the overall cost of ownership. Furthermore, a higher residual value potentially lowers the cost for the owner to switch to a new model thereby supporting client loyalty and promoting repeat purchases.

Sports Range

Our sports cars are characterized by compact bodies, a design guided by performance and aerodynamics, and often benefit from technologies initially developed for our Formula 1 single-seaters. They favor performance over comfort, seeking to provide a driver with an immediate response and superior handling, leveraging state of the art vehicle dynamics components and controls. In our sports car class, we offer three models: two of which are equipped with mid-rear V8 engines, namely the 488 GTB (with 670 hp) and the 488 Spider (with 670 hp); and one equipped with a front V12 engine, the 812 Superfast (with 800 hp).

GT Range

Our GT cars, while maintaining the performance expected of a Ferrari, are characterized by more refined interiors with a higher focus on comfort and quality of life on-board. In our GT class, we offer two models equipped with our V8 engine, the Ferrari Portofino (with 600 hp) and the GTC4Lusso T (with 610 hp), the first Ferrari 4 seater equipped with a V8 turbo engine. We also offer one GT model equipped with our V12 engine, the GTC4Lusso (with 690 hp), our sport-luxury 4 seater and 4 wheel drive.

29

Special Series

We also from time to time design, engineer and produce special series cars which can be limited in time or volume and are based on our range models but introduce novel product concepts. These cars are characterized by significant hardware and software mechanical modifications designed to enhance performance and drivability. Our special series cars are particularly targeted to collectors and, from a commercial and product development standpoint, they facilitate the transition from existing to new range models. Our current special series cars are the 488 Pista, powered by a 720 hp V8 engine, and its retractable hard top version, the 488 Pista Spider.

Icona

In September 2018, we introduced a new pillar of our product portfolio: the Icona, a unique concept which takes inspiration from the iconic cars of our history and reinterprets them in a modern fashion, pairing timeless design of the past with state-of-the-art materials and technology. The first examples of this strictly limited-edition product line-up are the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2 inspired by the classic collectible barchetta cars, 750Monza and 860Monza, and presented at our Capital Markets Day in September 2018.

Limited Edition Hypercars,Fuori Serie and One-Offs

In line with our tradition of hypercars starting with the 288GTO in 1984 through to the Enzo in 2002 and the LaFerrari Aperta, our latest hypercar which we launched in 2016, we also produce limited edition hypercars. These are the highest expression of Ferrari road car performance at the time and are often the forerunners of technological innovations for future range models, with innovative features and futuristic design. Furthermore, in connection with certain events or celebrations, we also launch very limited edition cars (our fuori serie). These models can be offered globally, or may be limited to specific local markets. Based on an exotic product concept not available on the standard Ferrari model range, these cars feature completely unique design and specifications compared to our other models.

Finally, in order to meet the varying needs of our most loyal and discerning clients, we also from time to time produce one-off models. While based on the chassis and equipped with engines of one of the current range models for homologation and registration purposes, these cars reflect the exact exterior and interior design specifications requested by the clients, and are produced as a single, unique car. Some of the most iconic models to have emerged from our One-Off program include the SP12 EC (inspired by the 512 BB, the F12 TRS (a radical two-seat roadster created on the platform of the F12berlinetta in 2014), the SP38 (a superlative mid-rear V8 turbo taking inspiration from the legendary Ferrari F40), the 458MM Speciale (the last mid rear model with a V8 natural aspirated engine in 2016) and the SP3JC (the only one-off made using the F12tdf in 2018). The program is expanding due to increasing demand.

Track Cars

Based on our sports and GT cars, we also develop and manufacture special racing cars. These cars are not registered for use on the road and may only be used on track in competitive and non-competitive race events. This activity is managed by the Attività Sportive GT Department which includes: Competizioni GT (GT racing) and Corse Clienti (the Ferrari Challenge one-make series, the Corso Pilota driving courses, the XX Programmes and the F1 Clienti activity).

Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli - 488 Challenge

Ferrari Challenge is the biggest one-make series in the world. The series was established in 1993 and the events are FIA approved, thus ensuring very high safety standards and dependable organization. The championship was an immediate success: the formula for the event ensures that cars are very closely matched, thus putting the focus on the drivers. There are three main series: Europe (which is the oldest), North America and Asia-Pacific. A brand new national championship will be launched in the United Kingdom in 2019.

The 488 Challenge marks the 25th anniversary of the Ferrari Challenge and was launched in December 2016 at the Finali Mondiali in Daytona. The 488 Challenge is the first equipped with a turbo engine to get on track in the Ferrari one-make series. It is the most powerful car in the Challenge history thanks to 670 hp from the V8 3.9-liter engine derived from the 488 GTB. Ferrari’s patented Slip Slip Angle Control software is installed for the first time on a Challenge car, improving the longitudinal acceleration through bends by 4.2 percent. Production started in 2017.

Competizioni GT (GT racing)

The 488 GTE/GTLM and 488 GT3/GTD models are sold to clients and private teams as racing cars specifically developed for professional racing with the aim to compete in the FIA World Endurance Championship and in several GT International series, as well as historical races such as the Daytona 24 Hours and Le Mans 24 Hours. Since beginning competition in 2016, the 488 GTE/GTLM and 488 GT3/GTD have won several competitions, including, among others, the Pirelli World Challenge in the SprintX division as well as the Petit Le Mans in the GTD class (488 GT3). In 2019, Competizioni GT will launch a new non-competitive track activity, Club Competizioni GT, dedicated to clients who own older and present day GT cars.

XX Programme

Since 2005, we have been operating our XX Programme, a non-competitive “owner-test drivers” program organized at some of the best known race tracks in Europe, Asia and North America. Through the XX Programme, we test advanced solutions and technological innovations by providing a select group of clients the opportunity to drive cars enhanced with superior power and performance characteristics. As part of this program, we have developed the FXX K, based on LaFerrari, shipments of which started in the second quarter of 2015. Although conceived as a track-only model, the FXX K was specially styled by Ferrari Design Centre working closely with the aerodynamics engineers. The FXX K received the Red Dot “Best of the Best” Design Award in 2015, one of the most recognized design awards in the world. The FXX K EVO was launched in October 2017 at the Finali Mondiali in Mugello.

F1 Clienti

Introduced in 2003, the F1 Clienti program allows a limited number of exclusive Ferrari lovers to both purchase previously-used Scuderia Ferrari Formula 1 cars and experience them in full. Formula 1 cars that we sell as part of this program include recent cars of the 21^st century, such as those driven by Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa, and cars from decades ago, such as the 412 T2 of 1995, the last Formula 1 car to be powered by a 12-cylinder engine which is now back on the racetrack thanks to F1 Clienti.

Owners can focus exclusively on the driving experience, while the F1 Clienti program can arrange for the cars to be kept at Maranello for safekeeping, where F1 technicians and mechanics perform regular maintenance of the cars. The F1 Clienti program includes a series of events throughout the year that enable customers to experience the pleasure of driving on prestigious tracks in front of a live crowd.

Corso Pilota Driving Courses

Initiated in 1993, Corso Pilota driving courses enable Ferrari customers to experience and appreciate the full formidable performance of the Ferrari models in a safe environment. It provides an opportunity to attend various, increasingly technical and complex courses that begin with the “Sport”, “Avanzato”, and “Evoluzione” levels, and culminate with the “Challenge” course. Led by professional instructors with years of Ferrari driving experience, the courses are designed to progressively develop participants’ driving style and skills so that they will obtain sufficient mastery to compete safely in real Challenge Championship races. The selection and preparation of the Ferrari cars used for the courses is of fundamental importance and the current fleet consists of 488 GTB, 812 Superfast and 488 Challenge models.

Design

Design is a fundamental and distinctive aspect of our products and our brand. Our designers, modelers and engineers work together to create car bodies that incorporate the most innovative aerodynamic solutions in the sleek and powerful lines typical of our cars. The interiors of our cars seek to balance functionality, aesthetics and comfort. Cockpits are designed to maximize the driving experience, tending towards more sporty or more comfortable, depending on the model. The interiors of our vehicles boast elegant and sophisticated trims and details that enhance the ergonomic layout of all main controls, many of which are clustered on the steering wheel. A guiding principle of our design is that each new model represents a clear departure from prior models and introduces new and distinctive aesthetic elements, delivering constant innovation within the furrow of tradition.

For the design of our cars we have relied historically on Italian coachbuilders such as Carrozzeria Touring, Vignale, Scaglietti and Pininfarina. These partnerships helped Ferrari in defining its design language at the forefront of design advance. Throughout the years this area of excellence has been recognized repeatedly by a long series of awards being bestowed upon Ferrari road cars.

In 2010 we established the Ferrari Design Centre, our in-house design department, with the objective of improving control over the entire design process and ensuring long-term continuity of the Ferrari style. The mission of the Ferrari Design Centre is to define and evolve the stylistic direction of the marque, imprinting all new products with a modern stamp, according to a futuristic, uncompromised vision. The name and logo “Ferrari Design” denotes all concepts and works from Ferrari Design Centre (see “—Intellectual Property”). Ferrari Design handles all aspects of automotive styling for the Ferrari road cars product range, encompassing the styling of all bodywork, external components and interior trim, applied to series production models for the GT and sports car range special editions, limited editions, Iconas, one-off models, concept cars and some track-only models. Ferrari Design also includes a Color & Trim unit which manages the choice of materials and finishes for both exterior and interior trim and, in addition, is responsible for the Tailor Made program in conjunction with the Product Marketing department. Ferrari Design is also regularly involved in the styling and conceptual definition of Ferrari branded products produced by our licensees (see “—Brand Activities”).

Ferrari Design is organized as an integrated automotive design studio, employing a total workforce of approximately 90 people (full-time workers as well as external contractors) including designers, 3D surfacing operators, physical modelers and graphic artists. It operates a modeling studio fully equipped with 5-axis milling machines with the capacity to develop various full-scale models (interior and exterior) in parallel.

The new building of the Ferrari Design Centre was opened in September 2018 and is our first facility fully dedicated to the Ferrari Design. Sitting at the heart of the Ferrari headquarters in Maranello, the building covers more than 5,600 square meters over four levels and houses the design offices, a fully-equipped model making studio and a vast indoor/outdoor presentation space on the top floor. Additionally, the new building hosts two Ateliers and the Tailor Made department to engage clients with Ferrari’s rich personalization services. The project aims to reflect the symbolic value of Ferrari’s advanced design process, drawing upon the interaction between digital technologies and the best Italian handmade craftsmanship tradition. The new building helps to improve the synergies between design studios, the physical modelling area and virtual modelling specialists, by bringing them together in a highly integrated and technological environment.

Ferrari Design Centre entirely designed our most recent cars, such as the Monza SP1 and SP2, the 488 Pista, the 488 Pista Spider, the FXX K EVO, the Ferrari Portofino, the 812 Superfast, the GTC4Lusso, the F12tdf, the 488 GTB, the 488 Spider, the 488 Challenge, the FXX K, the LaFerrari, the LaFerrari Aperta and the limited-series J50, as well as one-off cars including the F12 TRS, the 458MM Speciale and the SP38.

During its 9 years of activity, the Ferrari Design Centre has received prestigious design awards for several cars it has designed, among which:

• SP38: Design Award for Concept Cars & Prototypes - Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este 2018

• Ferrari Portofino: Red Dot Best of the Best Award (2018)

Product Development

Product development and technological innovation

Our development efforts take into account the three defining dimensions of Ferrari cars; performance; versatility and comfort; and driving emotions.

Performance reflects features such as weight, horsepower, torque, aerodynamic efficiency, acceleration, and maximum speed, which all contribute to determine the lap time on track. We strive to ensure that every Ferrari is the best performing car in its segment.

Versatility derives from spaciousness, accessibility and mode of traction, including rear‑wheel‑drive or all‑wheel‑drive and, in future, electric-powered driving. Comfort results from the ease of the riding experience and on board interface. Regulation will affect development in this area - for example, a prescribed electric range may be required in future to access city centers.

Driving emotions is a key differentiator of Ferrari cars. There are three elements to driving emotions: sound, perceived acceleration and responsiveness of the car. Sound is an important part of the experience and very involving for the driver. Perceived acceleration is the driver’s subjective impression of the car acceleration beyond the actual 0-100 or 0-200 km/h performance measured in the car technical specifications. Responsiveness requires that every driver command lead to a direct and controllable reaction of the car.

These three dimensions variably interact in our sports and GT cars. As we work on the future product range, we strive to improve on each of those dimensions, focusing for sports cars on performance and driving emotions, and for GT cars on versatility and comfort on board and fun to drive - driving emotions.

34

Innovation principles

We believe there are five key guidelines to innovation at Ferrari: focus on the three key defining dimensions described above, leveraging on Formula 1 know how, first mover positioning in core areas such powertrain and aerodynamics, customization of technologies available on the market (such as the turbo technology) and pursuit of synergies (arising from common architectures within our range). In addition to these internally driven factors, regulation is key in determining the direction of innovation.

Combustion engines

We believe internal combustion engines will remain important in Ferrari’s powertrain mix and therefore we continue to invest significantly in new combustion engine technologies. In 2018 we won the “Engine of the Year” award for the newest edition of our V8 turbocharged engine mounted on the 488 Pista.

Going forward, Ferrari will have three engine families: we will maintain and develop the V12 naturally‑aspirated engine family, long the pinnacle of Ferrari engines; we will implement the next technological step ups for the V8 family; and we will develop a completely new V6 family based on a specific and innovative architecture.

The industry effort to combine greater power outputs with lower emissions and consumption often leads to a higher turbo lag. Through a technological breakthrough, Ferrari has engineered a turbo engine with turbo engine performance but with the response of a naturally‑aspirated engine. For example, the specific power output of the 488 Pista was increased to 184 horsepower without meaningful turbo lag.

In the future, we intend to use hybrid technology and Formula 1 technology to increase specific power output without turbo lag.

We are deploying considerable resources for the development of hybrid powertrains, which will be mounted on an increasingly larger proportion of our car models; this is intended to improve performance and driving experience while also satisfying customer preferences and regulatory requirements regarding emissions. LaFerrari and LaFerrari Aperta are early examples of our efforts in this field, and we believe they show our ability to apply our core mechanical know-how to new and expanding fields such as hybrid technology.

Architecture

In addition to engines, the other principal technical area we are focusing on is the architecture. Our architecture covers all principal technical specifications of future Ferrari models. We expect that innovation requirements will arise principally from:

35

the evolution of engine families; the level of hybridization; modes of traction; the number of seats up to a real four-seater; and the body style, which will vary much more significantly than in the past in light of the introduction of the Purosangue.

We expect that our core architectures will be the rear‑mid‑engine architecture and the front‑mid‑engine architecture, each comprising several variants.

Rear-mid-engine architecture

The rear‑mid‑engine architecture is designed to integrate multiple power units with a higher specific power output than the 488 Pista. In this architecture, combustion engines can be combined with an electric motor to realize hybridization, including a battery to enable electric range. In combination, we are developing a new and highly innovative double‑clutch transmission gearbox. Hybridization will impact the weight of engines and therefore we will deploy new lightweight technologies to compensate this impact. Package efficiency will also be key to achieve a compact car that reduces weight and inertia. In order to apply the architecture to different powertrains, the wheelbase may vary.

Front-mid-engine architecture

The front‑mid‑engine architecture, also a transaxle powertrain concept, is even more flexible than the rear-mid-engine architecture. This architecture will be able to accommodate an all‑wheel‑drive powertrain, will allow for hybridization, and will have a flexible wheelbase suited to a variety of engines as well as seat configurations including two‑seaters and four‑seaters. It will be accessible, spacious and comfortable. Key to this architecture will be the new suspension systems we are developing, with a high range between comfort and sportiness.

New-generation human-machine interface

Particularly driven by growth in the GT segment, Ferrari is developing the next generation of human‑machine interface technologies. Using state‑of‑the‑art technologies we will be guided by the Formula 1 derived concept of “eyes on the street, hands on the steering wheel”, for a focused, safe and enjoyable drive. We intend to add several new technologies, including a new head‑up display, a new innovative cluster, a new steering wheel that features new commands and a new infotainment system, as well as tools aimed at positively enhancing the passengers’ experience.

Autonomous driving

While we do not intend to develop self-driving cars, we will adopt certain features of autonomous driving technology in response to regulatory developments and customer preferences, especially in the GT segment. For example, in 2018 we launched initial functionalities for Advanced Driving Assistant Systems (ADAS) such as predictive breaking and automatic cruise control on current models, and further innovations will be introduced in future models.

36

Ferrari is carefully monitoring the evolution of autonomous driving technologies, including sensors and artificial intelligence, and we will select and customize those innovations compatible with the Ferrari experience. These technologies will also have an important impact on the electronic architecture of our cars.

Production and Procurement

Production Process

Our production facilities are located in Maranello and in Modena, Italy (see “Item 4.D. Property, Plant, and Equipment”). Our production processes include supply chain management, production and distribution logistics of cars in our range models and special series, as well as assembly of prototypes and avanseries.

Notwithstanding the low volumes of cars produced, our production process requires a great variety of inputs —over 40,000 product identifier codes sourced from approximately 750 total suppliers— entailing complex supply chain management to ensure continuity of production. Our stock of supplies is warehoused in Ubersetto, near Maranello.

Most of the manufacturing process takes place in Maranello, including aluminum alloy casting in our foundry, engine construction, mechanical machining, painting, car assembly, and bench testing; at our second plant in Modena (Carrozzeria Scaglietti) we manufacture our cars’ aluminum bodyworks. All parts and components not produced in house at Ferrari are sourced from our panel of suppliers (see “—Procurement”).

The plants housing our production processes were entirely renovated or rebuilt between 2002 and 2012. We plan our investment activities based on an estimated plant useful life of approximately 20 years. We are planning investments in plant, machinery and equipment that reflect our focus on the hybridization and broadening of our product range to support future launches. Equipment, on the other hand, may require substantial investment with the introduction of new models, particularly in the case of shell tools for the foundry, tools for machining, feature tools for body welding and special mounting equipment for the assembly, and to maintain state-of-the-art technology.

At December 31, 2018, our production processes employed over 1,460 engineers, technicians and other personnel, of which approximately 1,280 blue collar employees (including approximately 130 temporary production employees) and approximately 180 white collar employees. We have a flexible production organization, which allows us to adjust production capacity to accommodate our expected production requirements. This is primarily due to the low volume of cars we produce per year and to our highly skilled and flexible employee base that can be deployed across various production areas. In addition, we can adjust our make-or-buy strategies to address fluctuations in the level of demand on our internal production resources. Our facilities can accommodate a meaningful increase in production compared to current output with the introduction of additional shifts or an increase of weekend shifts to address special peaks in demand. We constantly work to increase the utilization rate and reduce the internal scrap rate and we closely monitor an index of our production efficiency. In the past few years we have reduced our cycle time by approximately three percent per year. We are also committed to improve the reliability of our cars, reduce their defects, and optimize their finishing.

Unlike most low volume car producers, we operate our own foundry and machining department producing several of the main components of our engines, such as engine blocks, cylinders heads and crankshafts. We believe this accelerates product development and results in components that meet our specifications more closely.

Engine Production

Our engines are produced according to a vertical structure, from the casting of aluminum in our foundry up to the final assembly and testing of the engine. Several of the main components of our engines, such as blocks and cylinders heads are produced at our foundry in Maranello. For this purpose, we use a special aluminum alloy that includes seven percent silicon and a trace of iron, which improves mechanical integrity, and our own shell and sand casting molds. Once all components are ready, engines are assembled, on different lines for our V8 engines, V12 engines and for the V6 engines we manufacture for Maserati. The assembly process is a combination of automatic and manual operations. At the start of the assembly process, each engine is identified with a barcode and operations are recorded electronically. Every engine then goes to the test benches to ensure it delivers the expected performance: 10 - 20 percent of engines are also hot tested and their power and torque is measured. In

37

2018 we produced an average of approximately 177 engines per day, including approximately 10 V12, 43 V8 (including 5 V8 turbo and 7 V8 aspirated for Maserati) and 124 V6 engines for Maserati (see “—Manufacturing of Engines for Maserati”).

Body Assembly

In parallel with the assembly of our engines, we prepare our body-shells at our body shop Carrozzeria Scaglietti in Modena. The main components of body-shells are not manufactured internally but are sourced from manufacturers for chassis, bodies and carbon fiber parts. At Carrozzeria Scaglietti we have two different production lines dedicated to the assembly of our V8 and V12 aluminium bodies, respectively. We carefully check the alignment of the various parts —most importantly the engine cover and the wings —with electronic templates and gauges. Our highly trained specialists also perform surface controls on the aluminum panels and eliminate any imperfections by either filing or panel beating. In our Scaglietti plant we also have a dedicated line for the assembly of a special carbon fiber body for our hypercar, the LaFerrari Aperta, and the FXX K EVO.

Painting

When transferred to our paint shop, the bodies are mounted on a loading bay, immersed in the cataphoresis tanks and subsequently transferred to a fixing gas fired oven at 140 degrees. Primers are then applied and fixed at 190 degrees until the completely grey body-shell is ready for painting. All body-shells are cleaned with automatic pressure blowers (to avoid the electrostatic effect) and carefully brushed with emu feathers (because of their natural electrostatic properties) to clean off any dirt particles or impurities before painting. The painting process is automated for the larger surfaces, while it is done by hand for some other localized areas. The whole car is painted at the same time to ensure color harmony. The bodies are finally polished with lacquer to fix the paint and give the bodies their final finish. In 2018 we substituted our clear coat with a new generation 2K (bi-component) transparent coat that requires a lower baking temperature; this innovative process brings significant benefits as it allows us to simultaneously paint both aluminum and carbon fiber parts.

Assembly Line and Final Checks

The final assembly of our cars takes place in Maranello, in a dedicated building constructed in 2008. We have two different lines placed at ground level and the first floor of the building. For each model, the initial assembly operations take place simultaneously on different lines and sections to maximize efficiency so while the body is assembled on the main line, the powertrain, as well as the cockpit and the doors, are prepared on a specific sub-line. In 2018 the line on the first floor moved from one shift to two shifts. Given the special craftsmanship required for the production of our Icona cars, during the second half of 2018 we built a dedicated assembly line for the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2, the first models of this new product pillar.

Personalization and Road Tests

During the process of assembly of our cars we manage the fitting of all bespoke interiors, components and special equipment options that our clients choose as part of our personalization program (see “—Sports and GT Range, Special Series and Icona: Ferrari Line-Up Strategic Pillars—Personalization Offer”). After the assembly phase, every car completes a 40-kilometer road test-drive.

Finishing and Cleaning

After the road test all cars go to the finishing department. There, we thoroughly clean interior and exterior, check the whole car, polish and finish the bodies to give them their final appearance.

Manufacturing of Engines for Maserati

We have been producing engines for Maserati since 2003. The V8 engines that we historically produced and continue to produce for Maserati are variants of Ferrari families of engines and are mounted on Maserati’s highest performing models, such as the Quattroporte, Ghibli and Levante (turbo engines), and the Granturismo and the Grancabrio (aspirated engines). All of the V8 engines that we sell to Maserati are manufactured and assembled according to the same production processes we adopt for the V8s equipped on our cars (see “—Production Process”). In 2018, we sold approximately 900 V8 turbo engines and approximately 1,500 V8 aspirated engines to Maserati.

In 2011 we began producing a family of engines exclusively for Maserati, in much larger production volumes to be installed on the Quattroporte and Ghibli (mainly the F160 3.0-liter V6 Turbo engines), and in 2016 we started production of F161 engines to be installed on the Levante, Maserati’s SUV. We have a multi-year arrangement with Maserati to provide V6 engines, up to 2020. Under the framework agreement, Maserati is required to compensate us for certain costs we may incur,

38

such as penalties from our suppliers, if there is a shortfall in the annual volume of engines actually purchased by Maserati in that year. In 2018, we sold approximately 28,000 V6 engines to Maserati in four different versions, ranging from 330 hp to 450 hp. In order to meet the V6 volumes and specifications requirements, in 2012 we built a dedicated assembly facility at Maranello with a much higher level of industrialization compared to production of our V12 and V8 engines. Due to the larger volumes and product specifications, our make-or-buy strategy for the production of F160 V6 and F161 V6 engines also differs from the strategy applicable to the production of Ferrari engines. The vast majority of the engine components integrated in the engines we manufacture for Maserati are sourced externally from our panel of suppliers (see “—Procurement”) and then assembled in Maranello on our highly automated V6 assembly line.

Procurement

We source a variety of components, raw materials, supplies, utilities, logistics and other services from numerous suppliers. We recognize the contribution of our suppliers to our success in pursuing excellence in terms of luxury and performance, therefore we carefully select suppliers that are able to meet our high standards.

For the sourcing of certain key components with highly technological specifications, we have developed strongly synergic relationships with some of our suppliers, which we consider “key strategic innovation partners”. We currently rely on 14 key strategic innovation partners, including for the supply of transmissions and brakes. We have also developed strong relationships with other industrial partners for bodyworks and chassis manufacturing and for powertrain and transmissions, among other things. Pursuant to our make-or-buy strategy, we generally retain production in-house whenever we have an interest in preserving or developing technological know-how or when we believe that outsourcing would impair the efficiency and flexibility of our production process. Therefore, we continue to invest in the skills and processes required for low-volume production of components that we believe improve product quality.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, the purchases from our ten largest suppliers by value accounted for approximately 21 percent of total procurement costs, and no supplier accounted for more than 10 percent of our total procurement costs.

Sales and After-Sales

Our commercial team, which includes 334 employees at December 31, 2018, is organized in four geographic areas covering our principal regional end markets: (i) EMEA, which is also responsible for South Africa and India, (ii) Americas, (iii) Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, and (iv) Rest of APAC (which includes the rest of Asia and Oceania).

Dealer network

We sell our cars exclusively through a network of authorized dealers (with the exception of one-offs and track cars which we sell directly to end clients). In our larger markets we act as importer either through wholly owned subsidiaries or, in China, through a subsidiary partly owned by a local partner, and we sell the cars to dealers for resale to end clients. In smaller markets we generally sell the cars to a single importer/dealer. We regularly assess the composition of our dealer network in order to maintain the highest level of quality. At December 31, 2018, our network comprised 167 dealers operating 190 points of sale.

We do not presently own dealerships and, while our strategy does not contemplate owning dealerships, we retain flexibility to consider all market requirements from time to time.

We believe that our careful and strict selection of the dealers that sell our cars is a key factor for promoting the integrity and success of our brand. Our selection criteria are based on the candidates’ reputation, financial solidity and proven track records. We are also mindful to select dealers who are able to provide a purchase and after-sales experience aimed at exceeding our clients’ high expectations. Furthermore, our dealers are committed to promote and market our cars in a manner intended to preserve the Ferrari brand integrity and to ensure the highest level of client satisfaction.

While dealers may hold multiple franchises, we enjoy a high degree of prominence and level of representation at each point of sale, where most of the client interface and retail experience is exclusive to Ferrari. Our network and business development team works with all dealers to ensure our operating standards are met. Our rigorous design, layout and corporate identity guidelines guarantee uniformity of the Ferrari image and client interface. Through our in-house Ferrari Academy we provide training to dealers for sales, after-sales and technical activities. This ensures that our dealer network delivers a consistent level of market leading standards across diverse cultural environments. We train and monitor dealers intensively. We collect and observe data relating to their profitability and financial health in order to prevent or mitigate any adverse experience for clients arising from

39

a dealer ceasing to do business or experiencing financial difficulties. Our regional representatives visit dealerships regularly to monitor and measure performance and compliance with our operating standards. We have the right to terminate dealer relationships in a variety of circumstances including failure to meet performance or financial standards, or failure to comply with our guidelines.

We provide a suggested retail price or a maximum retail price for all of our cars, but each dealer is free to negotiate different prices with clients and to provide financing. Although many of our clients in certain markets purchase our cars from dealers without financing, we provide direct or indirect finance and leasing services to retail clients and to dealers. (See “—Financial Services”).

The total number of our dealers as well as their geographical distribution tends to closely reflect the development or expected development of sales volumes to end clients in our various markets over time. Dealer turnover is relatively low, reflecting the strength of the franchise and our selection processes, but is sufficient to guarantee an orderly renewal over time and to stimulate the network’s health and performance.

The chart below sets forth the geographic distribution of our 190 points of sale at December 31, 2018:

Our sales are diversified across our dealer network, with the largest dealer representing approximately 2.3 percent of sales, and our 15 largest dealers representing 22 percent of sales.

As part of our supply and demand management, we determine allocations based on various metrics including expected developments in the relevant market, the number of cars sold historically by the various dealers, current order book of dealers and the average waiting time of the end client in the relevant market. Our order reporting system allows us to collect and monitor information regarding end client orders and is able to assist us in production planning, allocation and dealer management.

Parts

We supply parts for current and older models of Ferrari to our authorized dealer network.     In addition to substitution of spare parts during the life of the car, sales are driven by clients’ demand for parts to customize their cars and maximize performance, particularly after a change in ownership and to compete in the FerrariChallenge and other client races. We also supply parts to Ferrari models currently out of production, with stocks dating back to 1995. The stock of parts for even older models is currently owned and managed by a third party which in some cases also manufactures out-of-stock parts based on our design. The sale of parts is a profitable component of our product mix and it is expected to benefit from the increase in the number of Ferrari cars in circulation.

After-sales

Dealers provide after-sales services to clients, either at facilities adjacent to showrooms, or in stand-alone service points across 230 facilities worldwide. After-sales activities are very important for our business to ensure the client’s continued enjoyment of the car and the experience. Therefore, we enforce a strict quality control on our dealers’ services activities and we

40

provide continued training and support to the dealers’ service personnel. This includes our team of “flying doctors,” Ferrari engineers who regularly travel to service centers to address difficult technical issues for our clients.

We sell cars together with a scheduled program of recommended maintenance services in order to ensure that these cars are maintained to the highest standards to meet our strict requirements for performance and safety.

Our 7 Year Maintenance Program (free of charge for customers since 2011 on any new cars) is offered to further strengthen customer retention in the official network and has been coupled with the possibility to extend the statutory warranty term of our standard warranty terms through the POWER coverage program up to the 7^th year of life of the car.

After the 7^th year of life, the car (if in perfect maintenance condition) can be included in the MAIN POWER coverage program (Maintenance and POWER) up to the car’s 15^th year of life. Between the 10^th year of life and the Classiche eligibility (20 year old car) Ferrari provides its customers, in addition to standard maintenance items, also certain specific maintenance kits (Ferrari Premium) to preserve car performance and safety systems. When a car follows the full maintenance program up to the 20^th year of life, it automatically obtains the Ferrari Classiche certification.

While we do not have any direct involvement in pre-owned car sales, we seek to support a healthy secondary market in order to promote the value of our brand, benefit our clients and facilitate sales of new cars. Our dealers provide an inspection service for clients seeking to sell their car which involves detailed checks on the car and a certification on which the client can rely, covering, among other things, the authenticity of the car, the conformity to original technical specifications, and the state of repair. Furthermore, we offer owners of classic Ferrari cars maintenance and restoration services.

Client Relations

Our clients are the backbone of our business together with our brand and our technology. We do not promote our brand or our cars through general advertising. Our main brand marketing and promotional activities have two principal targets.

Firstly, we target the general public. Our most significant effort in this respect is centered on our racing activities and the resonance of Scuderia Ferrari (see “—Formula 1 Activities”). We also engage in other brand-promotional activities, including participation in motor shows and other public events.

Secondly, we target existing and prospective clients, seeking to promote clients’ knowledge of our products, and their enjoyment of our cars both on road and on track, and to foster long term relationships with our clients, which is key to our success. In 2018, more than 65 percent of our new cars were sold to Ferrari owners.

By purchasing our cars, clients become part of a select community sharing a primary association with the Ferrari image and we foster this sense of fellowship with a number of initiatives. We strive to maximize the experience of our clients throughout their period of interaction with Ferrari — from first contact, through purchasing decision process, to waiting-time management and ownership.

Client events

We organize a number of client events in Maranello as well as other locations.

Our factory in Maranello is the core of our client engagement strategy and a symbolic hub attracting clients and prospects worldwide. Upon invitation, clients and prospects can visit the factory, witness some of its workings and experience several Ferrari core values such as heritage, exclusivity and customization. At the factory, clients also have the opportunity to configure their cars through our personalization and bespoke program (see “—Sports and GT Range, Special Series and Icona: Ferrari Line-Up Strategic Pillars—Personalization Offer”).

Every new model launch is carefully staged and selected clients and prospects have preferential access to the new car. The new model presentation begins with the release of images providing a preliminary view of its design. Clients are then invited to a preview or world premiere. A public model presentation generally follows at motor shows where clients are provided access to the Ferrari stand. Further country and regional events follow before delivery of the first cars to dealers.

On September 18, 2018, on the occasion of the Capital Markets Day, Ferrari invited clients to Maranello for the World Premiere of the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2, the forerunners in our new Icona range.

41

Just a few weeks earlier, on August 25, 2018 a world premiere of the 488 Pista Spider, the new special series model derived from the coupé version unveiled at the Geneva Motorshow, was held during the renowned Concours d’Elegance at Pebble Beach in California.

Driving events

Driving events serve the dual objective of allowing clients to experience at their best the emotion of driving a Ferrari car, and to foster client loyalty and repeat purchases by creating superior car-usage occasions. Track activities are mainly targeted to clients with a preference for sports models.

We see nurturing our clients’ passion for driving as a key asset for our future commercial success, particularly in markets where racing traditions are less pronounced. We offer to our prospective and existing clients interested in new Ferrari models our Esperienza Ferrari program, which consists of driving sessions with a team of highly qualified and skilled Ferrari instructors and technicians. In addition we also offer to our clients on-track driving courses (Corso Pilota), catering to different levels of skill and experience and teaching essential driving skills for high performance cars. In our newer markets, such as China, we also offer complimentary driving courses on-track to any new car buyer.

In addition to several track day activities, organized by local sales departments and dealers to allow clients to enjoy their cars on ad-hoc rented tracks, Ferrari has a central department responsible for professionally organizing races and racing courses, Corse Clienti. The Corse Clienti activities take place on some of the world’s most famous race tracks, and include both competitive races, such as the Ferrari Challenge Championships (Europe, North America and the Asia-Pacific series), and non-competitive events, such as with XX Programme and F1Clienti activities, dedicated to clients who own respectively, non-homologated GT laboratory cars and F1 single-seaters previously used by the Scuderia Ferrari in the Formula 1 Championship. Ferrari Challenge and XX/Formula 1 events are run together in the so-called Ferrari Racing Days, which are open to the public and intended for a wider audience.

These track activities reached their climax at the Finali Mondiali, the last races of three Challenge series, which last year took place from November 1 to 4 at the Monza Circuit, with more than one hundred drivers, sporting customers from all over the world, and approximately 50,000 spectators in the stands.

In addition to on-track racing, we organize various on-the-road driving events, including both proprietary formats (Ferrari Cavalcade, including the Cavalcade Classiche and the International Edition) or with a branded presence within an established driving event. For example, in the Ferrari Tribute to Mille Miglia and the Ferrari Tribute to Targa Florio modern Ferrari cars participate in their own regularity rally taking place shortly before the start of these traditional events.

Another exclusive driving experience took place from April to June 2018, when Prancing Horse enthusiasts and collectors were invited to take turns behind the wheel of the Ferrari Portofino on some of Europe’s most scenic roads.

Ferrari Classiche

The Ferrari Classiche department aims to provide Ferrari customers with a point of reference for managing their historic Ferrari vehicles with the objective of keeping as many of these classic cars on the road as possible. Services include the certification of the authenticity of classic Ferrari cars and vehicles of particular historical relevance, the management of Ferrari restoration and repair activities, as well as the management of Ferrari spare parts, including when these are no longer available on the market. The department also provides advice on repair operations carried out on Ferrari Classiche cars within its network.

Ferrari Classiche aims to create a platform of information and technical expertise to preserve and enhance over time the awareness and value of Ferrari’s heritage and brand. We view the surviving Ferrari vehicles of historical value as the tangible legacy and incarnation of our brand. The Ferrari Classiche department also supports and encourages the direct participation of clients in strategic historical events.

The Ferrari Classiche department in Maranello consists of an office of specialists and a workshop in which historic cars are restored and repaired. In addition, in order to provide an enhanced service to owners away from the proximity of the main workshop in Maranello, starting in 2017 Ferrari Classiche authorized a new service network with 69 new “Officina Ferrari Classiche” workshops to date, primarily for vehicle repairs and the certifications’ inspections or revalidation, and the network is expected to expand in future periods.

The originality of the car with respect to the initial specifications is checked via a technical inspection, performed either at the Ferrari Classiche facility in Maranello or at an authorized Officina Ferrari Classiche, and benefits from a comprehensive

42

archive containing drawings of each of the individual chassis and details of historical components. Based on the evidence gathered during this inspection, the car is then presented to an expert committee, chaired by the founder’s son, Piero Ferrari, for the certification.

At the Maranello workshop, Ferrari Classiche carries out full restorations using either original components and spare parts or replicas manufactured in accordance with the original specifications. Our restoration service offers our clients the opportunity to reinstate any classic Ferrari to its original pristine conditions.

Formula 1 Activities

Participation in the Formula 1 World Championship with Scuderia Ferrari is the core element of our marketing effort and an important source of technological innovation for the engineering, development and production of our sports, GT and special series cars. The Formula 1 World Championship is the pinnacle of motorsports with approximately 490 million television unique viewers all over the world (based on a new viewer calculation methodology applied by Formula 1 in the 2018 season) (Source: Formula 1 Press Office). Overall audience numbers should also consider data from various social media platforms, which have become an increasing focus under the leadership of Liberty Media Corporation starting in 2017. In 2018, Formula 1 was one of the fastest-growing sports in terms of social media outreach, with an increase in total number of followers on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube of 53.7 percent compared to 2017. (Source: Formula 1 Press Office).

Formula 1 cars rely on advanced technology, powerful hybrid engines and cutting edge aerodynamics. While Europe is the sport’s traditional base, Formula 1’s reach has expanded significantly and an increasing number of Grand Prix are held in non-European countries, such as China, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates, Singapore, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Japan, Mexico, Azerbaijan and the United States. This provides participants in the Formula 1 World Championship exceptional visibility on the world stage.

Scuderia Ferrari has been racing in the Formula 1 World Championship since the series was launched in 1950, and won its first Grand Prix in 1951. We are the only team that has competed in each season since launch and the oldest and most successful in the history of Formula 1, with 235 Grand Prix wins. Throughout our racing history, we have won 15 Drivers’ Championships and 16 Constructors’ Championships, more than any other team. Many of the best known drivers in the sport’s history have raced in Scuderia Ferrari’s distinctive red single-seaters including Alberto Ascari, Juan-Manuel Fangio, Niki Lauda, Gilles Villeneuve, Alain Prost and Michael Schumacher. Our drivers’ line-up in 2018 comprised four-time World Champion Sebastian Vettel, who joined Ferrari at the beginning of 2015, and Kimi Raikkonen, who won the World Drivers title in 2007 for Scuderia Ferrari and competed for the team for eight seasons. The 2018 season was Raikkonen’s last at Ferrari as he will be replaced by Charles Leclerc for the 2019 season.

2018 was the most successful in the last ten years for Scuderia Ferrari, with the team winning six races (five with Vettel and one with Raikkonen) and achieving as many pole positions. Both Vettel and the team were runner-ups in their respective point standings. Scuderia Ferrari’s tally of 571 points is the team’s best performance since the current scoring system was introduced in 2010.

Participation in the Formula 1 World Championship is regulated by bilateral Team Agreements entered into between Formula 1 World Championship Limited (FOWC), the Formula 1’s commercial rights holder, and each competing Formula 1 racing team (including Scuderia Ferrari) and by regulations issued by the Federation Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA), the motorsport’s governing body.

The Team Agreements cover the 2013-2020 racing seasons and govern the terms by which the racing teams take their share of commercial profits. The FIA regulations govern technical matters ranging from tires, weight to ignition, fueling and throttle requirements, as well as racing rules, such as scoring and racing procedures. In return for their participation in Formula 1 races the teams receive a share of a prize fund based on the profits earned from Formula 1 related commercial activities managed by FOWC, including in particular, television broadcasting royalties and other sources. Shares in the prize fund are paid to the teams, largely based on the relative ranking of each team in the championship. We use our share of these payments to defray part of the costs associated with Scuderia Ferrari, including the costs of designing and producing a set of single-seaters each year and the costs associated with managing a racing team including earnings of drivers, who are typically among the most highly paid athletes in the world. In 2018, certain changes to FIA regulations were issued and will become effective in 2019. These changes to the regulations relate to aerodynamics, drivers’ weight, fuel allowance and the requirement for drivers to wear biometric gloves for additional safety. Extensive talks were held in 2018 and are continuing among the owners of the Formula

43

1 business and all teams to help configure the future structure of the sport for 2021 and beyond, when the current agreement will have expired.

Improvements in technology and, from time to time, changes in regulation, such as those we will experience in 2019, require the design and production of a new racing car every year. Therefore, in addition to our long-term research and development efforts, we begin designing our single-seaters each year in the Spring, in anticipation of the start of the racing season the following March. While the chassis we build each year are designed to be used throughout the racing season, the majority of other components fitted on our cars are adjusted from race to race depending on the characteristics of the circuits.

To maximize the performance, efficiency and safety of our single-seaters, while complying with the strict technical rules and restrictions set out by the FIA, our research and development team plays a key role in the development of our engines and cars. We often transfer technologies initially developed for racing to our road cars. Examples include steering wheel paddles for gear-shifting, the use and development of composite materials, which makes cars lighter and faster, and technology related to hybrid propulsion.

    Our road cars (especially our sports car models) have benefited from the know-how acquired in the wind tunnel by our racing car development teams, enjoying greater stability as they reach high speeds on and off the track. Our research and development team focused on combining minimal lap times with maximum efficiency, leading to advances in kinetic energy recovery system, or ERS, technology. Current advanced ERS feature two electric motor/generator units in every car, which allow the car to recover, store and deploy energy generated both by the vehicle during braking and by the exhaust gases through a turbocharger.

The high brand visibility we achieve through participation in the Formula 1 World Championship has historically enabled us to benefit from significant sponsorships. Philip Morris International has been Scuderia Ferrari’s partner for over forty years and currently remains our Title Partner. Starting from the Japanese Grand Prix in October 2018, the “Mission Winnow” logo has appeared on the cars’ livery and drivers’ overalls, promoting a Philip Morris corporate campaign for a healthier future. Shell has also been a long term Sponsor and Technical Partner of Scuderia Ferrari (since 1996). Other official sponsors include Ray-Ban, Kaspersky lab, UPS, Lenovo, Weichai, Mahle, Hublot, AMD, OMR and Alfa Romeo. Visibility and placement of a sponsor’s logo reflects the level of sponsorship fees. Historically, our sponsors have sought advertising opportunities on the chassis of our cars, on clothes worn by our team members and drivers, and in the right to mention Ferrari in their marketing materials.

We use the platform provided by Formula 1 for a number of associated marketing initiatives, such as the hosting of clients and other key partners in the Scuderia Ferrari paddock to watch Grand Prix races, and our Formula 1 drivers participation in various promotional activities for our road cars. We often sell older single-seaters to clients for use in amateur racing or collection.

More generally, Formula 1 racing allows us to promote and market our brand and technology to a global audience without resorting to traditional advertising activities, therefore preserving the aura of exclusivity around our brand and limiting the marketing costs that we, as a company operating in the luxury industry, would otherwise incur.

The Mugello Circuit

We acquired the international Mugello circuit in Scarperia, near Florence, in 1988. We have renovated its buildings, 5.2 km race track and other testing and racing facilities, making Mugello what we believe to be one of the world’s finest circuits of its type, with FIA Grade 1 and FIM Grade A certifications, the highest level of homologation for a racetrack.

We promote the Mugello circuit to event organizers who regularly rent the circuit to host leading car and motorbike races, including the MotoGP World Championship since 1992. In 2018, almost 76,000 people attended the MotoGP World Championship at Mugello, one of the largest audience ever recorded in the 28 years of the Mugello circuit’s history.

In 2011, the Mugello circuit won its fifth “Best Grand Prix” award, the highest honor given in the motor sport world to MotoGP organizers. The Mugello circuit is the only track race to have received this award five times.

Brand Activities

Ferrari is one of the world’s leading luxury brands. We engage in brand development and protection activities through licensing contracts with selected partners, retail activities through a chain of franchised or directly managed stores, licensed theme parks and the development of a line of apparel and accessories sold exclusively in our monobrand stores and on our website www.store.ferrari.com.

Ferrari owns and manages two museums, one in Maranello and one in Modena, which attracted more than 540,000 visitors in 2018.

Licensing and Theme Parks

We enter into license agreements with a number of licensees for the design, development and production of Ferrari branded products.

We carefully select our licensees through a rigorous process and we contractually seek to ensure that our brand and intellectual property are protected and that the products which will eventually bear our brand are of adequate quality, appearance and market positioning. Ferrari branded products include consumer electronics, sportswear, toys, video games, watches and other accessories, as well as theme parks.

A significant portion of our revenues from licensing activities consists of royalties we receive in connection with Ferrari World, our theme park in Abu Dhabi. Ferrari World opened on Yas Island, on the North East side of Abu Dhabi’s mainland, in 2010. Ferrari World’s iconic sleek red roof is directly inspired by the classic double curve side profile of the Ferrari GT body, spanning 200,000 square meters and carrying the largest Ferrari logo ever created. Ferrari World Abu Dhabi offers an all-around Ferrari experience to children and adults alike.

Our second theme park, Ferrari Land Portaventura, opened in April 2017 near Barcelona, and includes Red Force, the tallest and fastest roller-coaster in Europe. In the long-term we aim to open one theme park in each of the main geographic areas where we operate, including North America and Asia.

Retail

Through our network of stores (franchised or directly managed), we offer a wide range of Scuderia Ferrari branded products, including a line of apparel and accessories exclusively sold in our stores and on our website. All products sold in our stores and on our website are either directly sourced from our selected network of suppliers or manufactured by our licensees.

At December 31, 2018, there were a total of 35 retail Ferrari stores, including those in Maranello, Milan, Rome, Macau, Miami, Los Angeles, Johannesburg, Dubai and Abu Dhabi, of which 17 franchised stores (including 5 Ferrari Store Junior) and 18 stores owned and operated by us.

We require all franchisees to operate our monobrand stores according to our standards. Stores are designed, decorated, furnished and stocked according to our directions and specifications.

We use multiple criteria to select our franchisees, including know-how, financial condition, sales network and market access. Generally, we require that applicants meet certain minimum working capital requirements and have the requisite business facilities and resources. We typically enter into a standard franchising agreement with our franchisees. Pursuant to this agreement, the franchisee is authorized to sell our products at a suggested retail price. In exchange, we provide them with our products, the benefit of our marketing platform and association with our corporate identity.

45

Financial Services

We offer retail client financing for the purchase of our cars and dealer financing through the operations of Ferrari Financial Services (“FFS”). We offer retail client financing:

• directly in the United States through our fully owned subsidiary Ferrari Financial Services Inc. (“FFS Inc”);

• through our associate Ferrari Financial Services GmbH in certain markets in EMEA (primarily the UK, Germany and Switzerland), and

• through various partnerships in other European countries and other major international markets, such as Japan and Australia.

We also offer direct dealer financing in the United States through FFS Inc.

Through FFS, we offer a range of flexible, bespoke financial and ancillary services to clients (both current and new) interested in purchasing a wide range of cars, from our current product range of sports, GT and special series cars, to older pre-owned and classic models. FFS also provides special financing arrangements to a selected group of our most valuable and loyal customers.

Starting in 2016, FFS Inc has pursued a strategy of autonomous financing for our financial services activities in the United States, further reducing dependency on intercompany funding and increasing the portion of self-liquidating debt with various securitization transactions.

At December 31, 2018, the consolidated financial services portfolio was €878 million and originated in the United States.

Intellectual Property

We own a number of registered designs and utility patents. We expect the number to grow as we continue to pursue technological innovations and to develop our design and brand activities.

We file patent applications in Europe, and around the world (including in the United States) to protect technology and improvements considered important to our business. No single patent is material to our business as a whole.

46

We also own a number of registered trademarks, designs and patents, including approximately 485 trademarks (word or figurative), registered in several countries and across a number classes. In particular, we ensure that the maximum level of protection is given to the following iconic trademarks, for which we own more than 4,000 applications/registrations in approximately 140 countries, in most of the main classes for goods and services:

•“Ferrari” (word)

•“Ferrari” logotype:

•the “Prancing Horse” (figurative):

•the trademark (figurative):

•the racing shield (figurative):

47

• Scuderia Ferrari (word and figurative):

The names of our sports, GT, special series and Icona car models and Formula 1 single-seater models are also registered as trademarks (and logotypes) and we also register their domain names and the cars’ design.

The protection of intellectual property is also increasingly important in connection with our design and brand activities. Therefore, we adopt and follow internal processes and procedures to ensure both that all necessary protection is given to our intellectual property rights and that no third party rights are infringed by us. In addition, we are particularly active in seeking to limit any counterfeiting activities regarding our Ferrari branded products around the world. To reach this goal we closely monitor trademark applications and domain names worldwide, actively interact with national and local authorities and customs and avail ourselves of a network of experienced outside counsels.

Regulatory Matters

We manufacture and sell our cars around the world and our operations are therefore subject to a variety of laws and regulations relating to environmental, health and safety and other matters. These laws regulate our cars, including their emissions, fuel consumption and safety, as well as our manufacturing facilities and operations, setting strict requirements on emissions, treatment and disposal of waste, water and hazardous materials and prohibitions on environmental contamination. Our vehicles, together with the engines that power them, must comply with extensive regional, national and local laws and regulations, and industry self-regulations (including those that regulate vehicle safety). However, we currently benefit from certain regulatory exemptions, because we qualify as an SVM or similar designation in certain jurisdictions where we sell cars. As outlined below, these exemptions provide a range of benefits, from less stringent emissions caps and compliance date extensions, to exemptions from zero emission vehicle production requirements.

We are in substantial compliance with the relevant regulatory requirements affecting our facilities and products around the world. We constantly monitor such requirements and adjust our operations as necessary to remain in compliance.

Approval and market surveillance

In May 2018 the European Parliament and European Council issued Regulation 2018/858, establishing the new framework for the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles (repealing Directive 2007/46/EC). While the previous regulatory framework of Directive 2007/46/EC was focused on technical standards, the new regulation has a broader scope by including market surveillance requirements in order to ensure the enforcement of applicable standards. The key objectives of Regulation 2018/858 are: enhancing the independence of technical services (i.e. the approved testing laboratories) as well as improving the quality of the testing of vehicles and setting stricter requirements for technical services; introducing market surveillance in order to verify the conformity of vehicles on the market to the applicable standards, and requiring corrective measures in case of non-compliance or where a vehicle poses a safety risk or a risk to the environment; strengthening the type approval system with more stringent oversight by the EU. The Commission has the power to suspend, restrict or withdraw the designation of technical services, to order recalls, and to impose financial penalties.

Greenhouse gas/CO₂/fuel economy legislation

Current European legislation limits fleet average greenhouse gas emissions for new passenger cars to 130 grams of CO₂ per kilometer. Due to our SVM status we benefit from a derogation from the 130 grams per kilometer emissions requirement available to small volume and niche manufacturers. Pursuant to that derogation, we were instead required to meet yearly CO₂ emissions targets, beginning in 2012, reaching a target level of 290 grams per kilometer in 2016 for our fleet of EU-registered vehicles that year.

In 2014, the European Union set new 2020 emissions targets, calling for 95 percent of a manufacturer’s full fleet of new passenger cars registered in the EU in 2020 to average 95 grams of CO₂ per kilometer, rising to 100 percent of the fleet in 2021. The 2014 regulation extends the small volume and niche manufacturers derogation. Pursuant to the derogation approved by the European Commission following our petition, we are required to meet certain CO2 emissions target levels in the 2017-2021 period, reaching a target of 277 grams per kilometer in 2021 for our fleet of EU-registered cars that year.

48

In the United States, both Corporate Average Fuel Economy (“CAFE”) standards and greenhouse gas emissions (“GHG”) standards are imposed on manufacturers of passenger cars. Because the control of fuel economy is closely correlated with the control of GHG emissions, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”) have sought to harmonize fuel economy regulations with the regulation of GHG vehicle emissions (primarily CO₂). These agencies have set the federal standards for passenger cars and light trucks to meet an estimated combined average fuel economy (CAFE) level that is equivalent to 35.5 miles per U.S. gallon for 2016 model year vehicles (250 grams CO₂ per mile). In August 2012, these agencies extended this program to cars and light trucks for model years 2017 through 2025, targeting an estimated combined average emissions level of 163 grams per mile in 2025, which is equivalent to 54.5 miles per gallon.

In November 2016, the EPA determined that the model years 2022-2025 standards, adopted by EPA in the 2012 final rule establishing the model year 2017-2025 standards, remain appropriate. In March 2017, EPA announced its intention to reconsider this decision, extending the review period for GHG standards definition.

In July 2017, the NHTSA published a notice of intent to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (“EIS”) for model years 2022-2025 CAFE standards, inviting stakeholders to provide comments. The EIS purpose is to define the potential environmental impacts of the model years 2022-2025 CAFE standards and represents the first step of the rulemaking process relating to those model years.

In August 2018 the NHTSA and the EPA issued a common proposal, the “Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient (SAFE) Vehicles Rule for model years 2021-2026 Passenger Cars and Light Trucks” (SAFE Vehicles Rule). The SAFE Vehicles Rule, if finalized, would amend certain existing CAFE and tailpipe carbon dioxide emissions standards for passenger cars and light trucks and establish new standards, all covering model years 2021 through 2026. More specifically, NHTSA is proposing new CAFE standards for model years 2022 through 2026 and amending its 2021 model year CAFE standards because they are no longer deemed to be maximum feasible standards, and EPA is proposing to amend its carbon dioxide emissions standards for model years 2021 through 2025 because they are no longer deemed appropriate and reasonable in addition to establishing new standards for model year 2026. The authorities’ stated preferred alternative is to retain the model year 2020 standards (specifically, the footprint target curves for passenger cars and light trucks) for both programs through model year 2026, but comment has been sought on a range of alternatives. No final decision has been taken to date.

Under current regulation, for model years 2017-2025, the EPA allows a SVM, defined as manufacturer with less than 5,000 yearly unit sales in the United States, to petition for a less stringent standard. The EPA has granted us SVM status. We have therefore petitioned the EPA for alternative standards for the model years 2017-2021 and 2022-2025, which are aligned to our technical and economic capabilities.

In September 2016, we petitioned NHTSA for recognition as an independent manufacturer of less than 10,000 vehicles produced globally, and we proposed alternative CAFE standards, for model years 2017, 2018 and 2019. In December, 2017, we amended the petition by proposing alternative CAFE standards for model years 2016, 2017 and 2018, covering also the 2016 model years. NHTSA have not yet responded to our petition. If our petitions are rejected or if we produce annually more than 10,000 vehicles globally, we will not be able to benefit from the more favorable CAFE standards levels which we have petitioned for and this may require us to purchase additional CAFE credits in order to comply with applicable CAFE standards.

The state of California has been granted special authority under the Clean Air Act to set its own vehicle emission standards. In February 2010, the California Air Resources Board (“CARB”) enacted regulations under which manufacturers of vehicles for model years 2012-2016 which are in compliance with the EPA greenhouse gas emissions regulations are also deemed to be in compliance with California’s greenhouse gas emission regulations (the so-called “deemed to comply” provision). In November 2012, the CARB extended these rules to include model years 2017-2025. In 2017 CARB performed a technical assessment regarding greenhouse gas standards for model years 2022 through 2025, in parallel with EPA and NHTSA, and confirmed in March 2017 that the standards defined in 2012 may be still considered appropriate. The SAFE Vehicles Rule mentioned above proposes to withdraw the waiver granted to California under the Clean Air Act to establish more stringent standards for vehicle emissions that are applicable to model years 2021 through 2025. In response to the proposed California waiver withdrawal, on December 12, 2018 the CARB amended its existing regulations to clarify that the “deemed to comply” provision shall not be available for model years 2021-2025 if the EPA standards for those years are altered via an amendment of federal regulations. Ferrari currently avails itself of the “deemed-to-comply” provision to comply with CARB greenhouse gas emissions regulations. Therefore, it may be necessary to also petition the CARV for SVM alternative standards and to increase the number of tests to be performed in order to follow the CARB specific procedures.

While Europe and the United States lead the implementation of these fuel consumption/CO₂ emissions programs, other jurisdictions typically follow on with adoption of similar regulations within a few years thereafter. In China, for example, Stage

49

III fuel consumption regulations targeted a national average fuel consumption of 6.9L/100km by 2015 and Stage IV targets a national average fuel consumption of 5.0L/100km by 2020. In September 2017 the Chinese government issued the Administrative Measures on CAFC (Corporate Average Fuel Consumption) and NEV (New Energy Vehicle) Credits. This regulation establishes mandatory CAFC requirements, while providing additional flexibility for SVMs (defined as a manufacturer with less than 2,000 units imported in China per year) that achieve a certain minimum CAFC yearly improvement rate. Manufactures that exceed the CAFC regulatory ceiling are required to purchase NEV credits.

Exhaust and evaporative emissions requirements

In 2007, the European Union adopted a series of updated standards for emissions of other air pollutants from passenger and light commercial vehicles, such as nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and particulates. These standards were phased in from September 2009 (Euro 5) and September 2014 (Euro 6) for passenger cars. In 2016, the European Union established that Euro 6 limits shall be evaluated through Real Driving Emissions (RDE) measurement procedure and a new test-cycle more representative of normal conditions of use (Worldwide Light Vehicles Test Procedure). SVMs (vehicle manufacturers with a worldwide annual production lower than 10,000 units) are required to be compliant with RDE standards starting from 2020 while non-SVMs have been required to comply with RDE standards starting from 2017. In 2018, the European Commission issued Regulation 2018/1832 for the purpose of improving the emission type approval tests and procedures for light passenger and commercial vehicles, including those for in-service conformity and RDE and introducing devices for monitoring the consumption of fuel and electric energy. Under the new EU Regulation, which became applicable in January 2019, among other things, the extended documentation package provided by manufacturers to type approval authorities to describe Auxiliary Emission Strategies (AES) is no longer required to be kept confidential, and the decision whether to allow access to such documentation package is left to national authorities. In addition, the Regulation introduced a new methodology for checking In-Service Conformity (ISC) which includes RDE tests. Compliance is tested based on ISC checks performed by the manufacturer, the granting type approval authority (GTAA), and accredited laboratories or technical services. Test results will be publicly available; in addition, the GTAA will publish annual reports on the ISC checks performed, in order to improve transparency.

In the United States, the “Tier 3” Motor Vehicle Emission and Fuel Standards issued by the EPA were finalized in April 2014. With Tier 3, the EPA has established more stringent vehicle emission standards, requiring significant reductions in both tailpipe and evaporative emissions, including nitrogen oxides, volatile organic compounds, carbon monoxide and particulate matter. The new standards are intended to harmonize with California’s standards for 2015-2025 model years (so called “LEV3”) and will be implemented over the same timeframe as the U.S. federal CAFE and GHG standards for cars and light trucks described above. Because of our status as an operationally independent SVM, Ferrari obtained a longer, more flexible schedule for compliance with these standards under both the EPA and California Program.

In addition, California is moving forward with other stringent emission regulations for vehicles, including the Zero Emission Vehicle regulation (ZEV). The ZEV regulation requires manufacturers to increase their sales of zero emissions vehicles year on year, up to an industry average of approximately 15 percent of vehicles sold in the state by 2025. Because we currently sell fewer than 4,500 units in California, we are exempt from these requirements.

Additional stringency of evaporative emissions also requires more advanced materials and technical solutions to eliminate fuel evaporative losses, all for much longer warranty periods (up to 150,000 miles in the United States).

In response to severe air quality issues in Beijing and other major Chinese cities, in 2016 the Chinese government published a more stringent emissions program (National 6), providing two different level of stringency (6a and 6b) effective starting from 2020. In July 2018 China’s central government launched a three-year plan to reduce air pollution, extending targets for reducing lung-damaging airborne particulate pollution to the country’s 338 largest cities. This plan includes reductions in steel and other industrial capacity, reducing reliance on coal, promoting electric vehicles and cleaner transport, enhancing air-pollution warning systems, and increasing inspections of businesses for air pollution infractions. Several autonomous regions and municipalities are implementing the requirements of the National 6 program even ahead of the mandated deadlines. For instance, Shenzhen and Beijing announced the introduction of the 6b level requirements starting from July 2019 and January 2020, respectively.

    To comply with current and future environmental rules related to both fuel economy and pollutant emissions, we may have to incur substantial capital expenditure and research and development expenditure to upgrade products and manufacturing facilities, which would have an impact on our cost of production and results of operation.

Vehicle safety

Vehicles sold in Europe are subject to vehicle safety regulations established by the EU or by individual Member States. In 2009, the EU established a simplified framework for vehicle safety, repealing more than 50 directives and replacing them with a single regulation (the “General Safety Regulation”) aimed at incorporating relevant United Nations standards. This incorporation process began in 2012. With respect to regulations on advanced safety systems, the EU now requires new model cars from 2011 onwards to have electronic stability control systems and tire pressure monitoring systems. Regulations on low-rolling resistance tires have also been introduced. The framework is reviewed periodically, and a revised version of the General Safety Regulation is currently under discussion. In May 2018, the European Commission adopted a proposal for a regulation which mandates new model cars to be compliant, among other things, with Advanced Emergency Braking, Emergency Lane Keeping systems, and car crash test requirements. In 2017 the EU published technical requirements for the Emergency Call (eCall) system, mandatory for new model cars starting from 2018. Starting from July 1, 2019, new types of pure electric vehicle and new types of hybrid electric vehicle capable of operating without propulsion from a combustion engine operating are required to be equipped with an Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS), and from July 1, 2021 for all new vehicles of such types, in order to alert pedestrians that a vehicle is moving at low speeds.

Under U.S. federal law, all vehicles sold in the United States must comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (“FMVSS”) promulgated by the NHTSA. Manufacturers need to provide certification that all vehicles are in compliance with those standards. In addition, if a vehicle contains a defect that is related to motor vehicle safety or does not comply with an applicable FMVSS, the manufacturer must notify vehicle owners and provide a remedy at no cost to the owner. Moreover, the Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability, and Documentation Act (“TREAD”) requires manufacturers to report certain information related to claims and lawsuits involving fatalities and injuries in the United States if alleged to be caused by their vehicles, and other information related to client complaints, warranty claims, and field reports in the United States, as well as information about fatalities and recalls outside the United States. Several new or amended FMVSSs will take effect during the next few years in certain instances under phase-in schedules that require only a portion of a manufacturer’s fleet to comply in the early years of the phase-in. These include an amendment to the side impact protection requirements that added several new tests and performance requirements (FMVSS No. 214), an amendment to roof crush resistance requirements (FMVSS No. 216), and a new rule for ejection mitigation requirements (FMVSS No. 226). U.S. federal law also sets forth minimum sound requirements for hybrid and electric vehicles (FMVSS No. 141). Because of our status as SVM, Ferrari is required to be compliant at the end of the phase-in period.

On May 4, 2016, the NHTSA published a Consent Order Amendment (the “Amended Consent Order”) to the November 3, 2015 Takata Consent Order regarding a defect which may arise in the non-desiccated Takata passenger airbag inflators mounted on certain Ferrari cars. As a result of such Amended Consent Order, Ferrari filed a Part 573 Defect Information Report on May 23, 2016 with the NHTSA and has initiated a global recall relating to certain cars produced between 2008 and 2011. In December 2016, the NHTSA issued a Third Amendment to the Coordinated Remedy Order (“ACRO”) which included the list of Ferrari vehicles sold in the United States up to model year 2017 to be recalled. As a consequence of the ACRO, Ferrari decided to extend the Takata global recall campaign to all vehicles worldwide mounting non-desiccated Takata passenger airbag inflators. In January 2017 Ferrari, in accordance with the Amended Consent Order and the ACRO, filed with the NHTSA a Part 573 Defect Information Report to include model year 2012 Zone A vehicles. In January 2018, Ferrari, in accordance with the Amended Consent Order and the ACRO, also filed with the NHTSA a Part 573 Defect Information Report to include model year 2013 Zone A vehicles. In January 2019, Ferrari, in accordance with the Amended Consent Order and the ACRO, filed with the NHTSA a Part 573 Defect Information Report to include model year 2014 - 2018 vehicles worldwide. As a result of the ACRO and the decision to extend the worldwide Takata airbag inflator recall, Ferrari increased its provisions for the estimated charges for Takata airbag inflators recalls to €37 million in 2016 to cover the cost of the worldwide global Takata recall due to uncertainty of recoverability of the costs from Takata. At December 31, 2018 the provision amounted to €25 million.

In 2016, the NHTSA published Phase II draft guidelines for driver distraction, for portable and aftermarket devices, and the associated compliance costs may be substantial. These guidelines, together with previously published Phase I provisions focus, among other things, on the need to modify the design of car devices and other driver interfaces to minimize driver distraction. Compliance with these new requirements, as well as other possible future NHTSA requirements, may be difficult and/or costly. We are in the process of evaluating these guidelines and their potential impact on our results of operations and financial position and determining what steps and/or countermeasures, if any, we will need to make. However, NHTSA rulemaking on driver distraction guidelines has not progressed since early 2017, and the announced Phase III draft on voice-activated controls has not yet been published.

In 2017 Chinese authorities published an updated version of the current local general safety standard which allows China to become the driver market for the Event Data Recorder mandatory installation starting from 2021. Technical requirements are expected to be defined in mid-2019, once the current draft standard is adopted in its final form.

D. Property, Plant and Equipment

Our principal manufacturing facility is located in Maranello (Modena), Italy. It has an aggregate covered area of approximately 672 thousand square meters. Our Maranello plant hosts our corporate offices and most of the facilities we operate for the design, development and production of our sports and GT cars, as well as of our Formula 1 single-seaters. (See “Item 4.B. Business Overview—Production and Procurement—Production Process”). Except for some leased technical equipment, we own all of our facilities and equipment in Maranello.

Between 2002 and 2012 most of the buildings in Maranello, including the paint shop building and the production building, were either rebuilt or renovated. In 2015 we completed construction of the new building entirely dedicated to our Formula 1 team and racing activities, as well as the new wind tunnel 4WD.

In 2018 we completed the new Ferrari Design Centre, a building that covers more than 5,600 square meters over four levels.

Adjacent to the plant is our approximately 3,000 meterFiorano track, built in 1972 and remodeled in 1996. The track also houses the Formula 1 logistics offices.

We also own the Mugello racing circuit in Scarperia, near Florence, which we rent to racing events organizers (see “Item 4.B. Business Overview—Formula 1 Activities—The Mugello Circuit”).

We own a second plant in Modena, named Carrozzeria Scaglietti. At this approximately 26 thousand square meter plant we manufacture aluminum bodyworks for our regular range, special series and prototype cars.

The total carrying value of our property, plant and equipment at December 31, 2018 was €850,550 thousand.

Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF THE GROUP

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with the information included under “Item 3.A. Selected Financial Data,”“Item 4. Information on the Company” and the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document. This discussion includes forward-looking statements, and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described under “Forward-Looking Statements” and the “Item 3.D. Risk Factors.” Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Overview

Ferrari is among the world’s leading luxury brands focused on the design, engineering, production and sale of the world’s most recognizable luxury performance sports cars. Our brand symbolizes exclusivity, innovation, state-of-the-art sporting performance and Italian design and engineering heritage. Our name and history and the image enjoyed by our cars are closely associated with our Formula 1 racing team, Scuderia Ferrari, the most successful team in Formula 1 history. From the inaugural year of Formula 1 in 1950 through the present, Scuderia Ferrari has won 235 Grand Prix races, 16 Constructor World titles and 15 Drivers’ World titles. We believe our history of excellence, technological innovation and defining style transcends the automotive industry, and is the foundation of the Ferrari brand and image. We design, engineer and produce our cars in Maranello, Italy, and sell them in over 60markets worldwide through a network of 167 authorized dealers operating 190 points of sale.

We believe our cars are the epitome of performance, luxury and styling. Our current sports and GT range consists of six models, including three sports cars (488 GTB, 488 Spider and 812 Superfast) and three GT cars (GTC4Lusso, GTC4Lusso T and Ferrari Portofino) and two special series cars (488 Pista and 488 Pista Spider). The Ferrari Portofino was unveiled in September 2017 and shipments began in the second quarter of 2018, while the 488 Pista was launched in March 2018 at the Geneva Motor Show, with shipments beginning in the third quarter of 2018. The 488 Pista Spider was launched in August 2018 and shipments will begin in 2019. Our most recent hypercar, the LaFerrari Aperta, was launched in 2016 to celebrate our 70^th Anniversary and finished its limited series run in 2018. The Monza SP1 and SP2 were unveiled in 2018 to kick off a new pillar in our product offering, the Icona, a line of modern cars inspired by our iconic cars of the past, with deliveries expected to begin in 2019. We also produce very limited editions series (fuori serie) and one-off cars.

In 2018, we shipped 9,251 cars and recorded net revenues of €3,420 million, EBIT of €826 million, net profit of €787 million, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) of €1,114 million, adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (Adjusted EBIT) of €825 million and Adjusted Net Profit of €645 million. For additional information regarding Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted Net Profit, which are non-GAAP measures, including a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net profit, Adjusted EBIT to EBIT and Adjusted Net Profit to net profit, see “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Whilst broadening our product portfolio to target a larger customer base, we continue to pursue a low volume production strategy in order to maintain a reputation for exclusivity and scarcity among purchasers of our cars and we carefully manage our production volumes and delivery waiting lists to promote this reputation. We divide our regional markets into EMEA, Americas, Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan and Rest of APAC, representing respectively 45.7 percent, 32.4 percent, 7.5 percent and 14.4 percent of units shipped in 2018.

We focus our marketing and promotion efforts in the investments we make in our racing activities, in particular Scuderia Ferrari’s participation in the Formula 1 World Championship, which is one of the most watched annual sports series in the world, with over 490 million television unique viewers in 2018 (based on a new viewer calculation methodology applied by Formula 1 in the 2018 season) (Source: Formula 1 Press Office). Although our most recent Formula 1 world title was in 2008, we continuously enhance our focus on Formula 1 activities with the goal of improving recent racing results and restoring our historical position as the premier racing team in Formula 1. We believe that these activities support the strength and awareness of our brand among motor enthusiasts, clients and the general public.

We license the Ferrari brand to a selected number of producers and retailers of luxury and lifestyle goods. In addition, we design, source and sell Ferrari-branded products through a network of 18 Ferrari-owned stores and 17 franchised stores (including 5 Ferrari Store Junior), as well as on our website. As one of the world’s most recognized premium luxury brands, we believe we are well positioned to selectively expand the presence of the Ferrari brand in attractive and growing lifestyle categories

54

consistent with our image, including sportswear, watches, accessories, consumer electronics and theme parks which, we believe, enhance the brand experience of our loyal clients and Ferrari enthusiasts.

We will continue focusing our efforts on protecting and enhancing the value of our brand to preserve our strong financial profile and participate in the premium luxury market growth. We intend to selectively pursue controlled and profitable growth in existing and emerging markets while expanding the Ferrari brand to carefully selected lifestyle categories.

Trends, Uncertainties and Opportunities

Shipments - Our results of operations depend on the achievement of shipment targets established in our budgets and business plans. One of the performance indicators we monitor is shipment volumes, which represent the number of cars we ship to third parties in a given period and which drive net revenues. We recognize revenues from car shipments once it is highly probable that the economic benefits associated with a transaction will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is recognized when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to our dealers, the sales price is agreed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured; this generally corresponds to the date on which the cars are released to the carrier responsible for transporting them to dealers.

In general, our shipments do not vary based on changes in demand. Rather, we tend to ship based on volume targets we establish under our low volume strategy and growth objectives. As part of this strategy, we seek to manage waiting lists in the various markets in which we operate to respond appropriately to relative levels of demand while being sensitive to local client expectations in those markets. In certain markets, we believe that waiting lists have promoted our products’ sense of exclusivity; accordingly we monitor and manage such waiting lists to maintain such exclusivity while ensuring that we do not jeopardize client satisfaction.

In order to maintain a reputation of exclusivity among purchasers of our cars, we have continued our low volume strategy while responding to growing demand in emerging markets and demographic changes as the size and spending capacity of our target clients has grown, gradually increasing shipments from 8,014 in 2016 to 8,398 in 2017 and to 9,251 units in 2018. Our strategic business plan reflects a continuation of this strategy and a broadening of our product portfolio to target a larger customer base.

The following table sets forth our shipments by geographic location:

We target our products to the upper end of the luxury car segment and buyers of our cars tend to belong to the wealthiest segment of the population. As the size and spending capacity of our target client base has grown significantly in recent years, our addressable market and the sense of exclusivity fostered by our low volume strategy have been further enhanced. In response, we have expanded our distribution capabilities and sought to rebalance the geographic distribution of shipments from several traditional markets, particularly in Europe, to growing markets such as China and other regions in Asia. For example, in 1993, 90 percent of our cars were sold in Italy, Germany and the United States; those markets now represent less than half of our unit shipments. Furthermore, the profitability of our cars may vary from market to market. Given that our shipment strategy is flexible, we are able to adjust shipment allocations across markets to respond to changes in our key markets. In addition, we expect that further growth in shipments will result from our deliberate targeting of new customer groups and modes of use through the expansion of our product range.

Research, Development and Product Lifecycle - We engage in research and development activities aimed at improving the design, performance, safety, efficiency and reliability of our cars. The first stage of product development is the research phase. In this phase, we research the specifications of new models that we believe will appeal to our clients and will be commercially viable. Costs we incur for the development of cars and related components, engines and systems are recognized as an asset if, and only if, both of the following conditions under IAS 38 - Intangible Assets are met: that development costs can be measured reliably and that the technical feasibility of the product, volumes and pricing support the view that the development expenditure will generate future economic benefits. Capitalized development costs include all direct and indirect costs that may be directly attributed to the development process. Capitalized development costs are amortized on a straight-line basis from the start of production over the estimated lifecycle of the model and the useful life of the components (generally between four and eight years). All other research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Our capitalized development costs are primarily affected by the timing of renewals to our product range and more recently, by our intention to integrate hybrid technology more broadly into our product portfolio.

We also incur research and development expenses in connection with Formula 1 racing activities, including initiatives to maximize the performance, efficiency and safety of our racing cars. While we develop these technologies for initial use in our Formula 1 racing cars, we seek to transfer these components and technologies, where appropriate, to models in our current and future product range. Technological developments and changes in the regulations of the Formula 1 World Championship lead us to design, develop and construct a new racing car each year. The costs incurred for these activities are expensed as incurred and classified as research and development costs in the income statement. Research and development costs for Formula 1 activities can vary from year to year and may be difficult to predict because they are subject to, among other things, changes in race regulations and the need to respond to our car’s performance relative to other racing teams.

Research and development costs expensed, which primarily relate to our Formula 1 racing and research phase activities, remained relatively consistent from 2016 to 2018. As a result of our strategy to update and broaden our product range and significantly increase our efforts relating to hybrid technology, our overall research and development expenditure, and in particular our capitalized development costs, increased during the period from 2016 to 2018.

The following table summarizes our research and development for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016:

	For the years ended December 31,
	2018	2017	2016
Capitalized development costs (1)	318	185	141
Research and development costs expensed (A)	528	556	510
Total research and development	846	741	651
Amortization of capitalized development costs (B)	115	101	104
Research and development costs as recognized in the consolidated income statement (A+B)	643	657	614

__________________________

(1) Capitalized to developed costs within intangible assets during the year.

Our results of operations are dependent on the comparative success of our product offering over time. Our range models typically have a lifecycle of four to five years, while our special series, hypercars and limited edition cars (and starting in 2019, our Icona cars) typically have shorter lifecycles. A portion of our research and development efforts are related to the development

56

of the various components used in our models, and in particular, hybrid, electronic and mechanical components. Our new models generally include new technological content, part of which is related to the output from the component research and development efforts. Our continued focus on component development has the objective of reducing the costs to develop new models.

Car Profitability - The relative profitability of the cars we sell tends to vary depending on a number of factors, including exclusivity of the offering, technological content of the car, engine size, level of personalization and the geographic market in which it is sold.

The exclusivity of a particular product offering is also a relevant factor in its profitability. For example, the LaFerrari Aperta, our latest limited edition hypercar, had a sales price in excess of €1 million, which is much higher than other models in the Ferrari product range in light of the exclusivity of the offering, along with the hypercar advanced technological and design content. The first shipments of the LaFerrari Aperta were in the third quarter of 2016 and shipments were substantially completed in the first half of 2018. In general, more exclusive offerings generate higher net revenues and provide better margins than those generated on shipments of range models and special series cars. Similarly, our limited edition cars which we launch from time to time, and the Icona cars we will begin selling in 2019, are typically sold at a significantly higher price point than our range models and therefore they benefit our results in the periods in which they are sold. With the introduction of our Icona models, which we expect will be launched more frequently compared to our hypercars and limited edition cars, we intend to schedule the launch and distribution of future models to reduce the volatility in financial performance due to the launch of our hypercars and limited edition cars.

We seek to increase over time the average price point of our range models and special series by continually improving performance, technology and other features, and by leveraging the scarcity value resulting from our low volume strategy. In particular, in the last three years we increased the price of selected models in selected markets and in both 2017 and 2018 we introduced new models with higher average selling prices compared to the corresponding predecessor models. Furthermore, the content of the cars we sell can be customized through our interior and exterior personalization program, which can be further enhanced through bespoke specifications. Incremental revenues from personalization are a particularly favorable factor of our pricing and product mix, due to the fact that we generate a margin on each additional option selected by the client. Additionally, as we integrate hybrid technology more broadly into our car portfolio, we expect our average price point to increase reflecting the more advanced technological content of the new hybrid models.

Our products equipped with V12 engines have historically commanded a higher price, and have therefore been more profitable than those equipped with the V8 engine. At December 31, 2018 our V12 product offering included the the GTC4Lusso and the 812 Superfast, and our V8 product offering included the 488 GTB, the 488 Spider, the GTC4Lusso T, the Ferrari Portofino, the 488 Pista and the 488 Pista Spider. During part of the periods discussed below we also produced the California T, the F12tdf, the LaFerrari, the LaFerrari Aperta, the F12berlinetta, the FF, the F60 America and the Ferrari J50, which are now discontinued.

Maserati Engine Volumes - We have been producing engines for Maserati since 2003. The V8 engines that we historically produced and continue to produce for Maserati are variants of Ferrari families of engines and are mounted on Maserati’s highest performing models. In 2011, we began producing a new family of V6 engines for Maserati for use in their cars. In order to meet our obligations under our agreement with Maserati, we constructed a new production line dedicated to the Maserati V6 engine, which was funded by Maserati. Net revenues generated from the Maserati engine volumes depend on the orders received from Maserati, which in turn depend on Maserati production volumes and product launches.

Cost of Sales - Cost of sales comprises expenses incurred in the manufacturing and distribution of cars and parts, including engines rented to other Formula 1 racing teams. Costs of materials, components and labor are the most significant elements of our cost of sales. The remaining costs principally include depreciation, amortization, insurance and transportation costs. Cost of sales also includes warranty, maintenance and product-related costs, which are estimated and recorded at the time of shipment of the car. Expenses that are directly attributable to our financial services companies, including the interest expenses related to their financing as a whole and provisions for risks and write-downs of assets, are also reported in cost of sales.

We purchase a variety of components (including mechanical, steel, aluminum, electrical and electronic, plastic components as well as casting and tires), raw materials (the most significant of which is aluminum) and supplies, and we incur costs of utilities, logistics and other services from numerous suppliers in the manufacture of our cars. Fluctuations in the cost of sales are primarily related to the number of cars we produce and sell along with shifts in car mix. Newer models generally have more technologically advanced components and enhancements, including hybrid and electric technology, and therefore have higher costs per unit; however we expect to price our future cars appropriately to recover such costs. Hypercars and limited edition cars (fuori serie) (and starting in 2019, our Icona cars) also tend to have higher costs per unit but these higher costs tend

57

to be more than offset by higher sales prices. Cost of sales are also affected, to a lesser extent, by fluctuations of certain raw material prices, although we typically seek to manage these costs and minimize their volatility through the use of long-term fixed price purchase contracts.

In recent years, management has made efforts to achieve technical and commercial efficiencies. In particular, commercial efficiencies have been achieved through negotiating discounts where appropriate, and entering into long-term contracts with suppliers, who commit upfront to passing on to us a portion of the efficiencies they achieve in performing our supply contracts. Furthermore, efforts are made to award new business to existing suppliers, in order to negotiate favorable pricing. Technical efficiencies include efforts made to more efficiently produce components using innovative materials, without compromising the components’ performance. In order to achieve these technical efficiencies, we perform in-house research and development activities and we invite our suppliers to present us with solutions that they have developed. As cost of sales also includes depreciation of plant and equipment, cost of sales is affected by product launches, which trigger the commencement of depreciation of plant and equipment acquired specifically for the production of a certain model.

Effects of Foreign Currency Exchange Rates - We are affected by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates (i) through the translation of foreign currency financial statements into Euro of our subsidiaries with functional currencies other than Euro on consolidation, which we refer to as the translation impact, and (ii) through transactions by entities in the Group in currencies other than their own functional currencies, which we refer to as the transaction impact.

Translation impacts arise in preparation of the consolidated financial statements; in particular, we present our consolidated financial statements in Euro, while the functional currency of each of our subsidiaries depends on the primary economic environment of that entity. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, we translate into Euro assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries expressed in local functional currency other than Euro using the foreign currency exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date, while we translate income and expenses using the average foreign currency exchange rates for the period covered. Accordingly, fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rate of the functional currencies of our subsidiaries against the Euro impacts our results of operations.

Transaction impacts arise when our entities conduct transactions in currencies other than their own functional currency. Therefore, we are also exposed to foreign currency risks in connection with scheduled payments and receipts in multiple currencies.

Our costs are primarily denominated in Euro, while our net revenues may be denominated in Euro, U.S. Dollars, Japanese Yen, Chinese Yuan or other currencies. In general, an appreciation of the U.S. Dollar against the Euro would positively impact our net revenues and results of operations.

Our risk management policies contemplate the use of derivative financial instruments to hedge foreign currency exchange rate risk. In particular, we have used derivative financial instruments as cash flow hedges for the purpose of fixing the foreign currency exchange rate at which a predetermined proportion of forecasted transactions denominated in foreign currencies will occur. Accordingly, our results of operations have not been fully exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. See “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for information related to our foreign currency exchange rate risk policies.

Regulation - We ship our cars throughout the world and are therefore subject to a variety of laws and regulations, including tariffs. These laws regulate our cars, including their emissions, fuel consumption and safety, as well as our manufacturing facilities. As we are currently a small volume manufacturer, in certain jurisdictions we benefit from certain regulatory exemptions, including less stringent emissions caps. Developing, engineering and producing cars which meet the regulatory requirements, and can therefore be sold in the relevant markets, requires a significant effort and expenditure of resources.

Equity Incentive Plan - Following the approval of the equity incentive plan by the Board of Directors in March 2017, our Shareholders approved in April 2017 an award of performance share units (“PSUs”) to our former Chief Executive Officer and awards of PSUs and restricted share units (“RSUs”) to members of the Senior Management Team and key leaders of the Group. The grants of the PSUs and the RSUs, each representing the right to receive one common share, cover a five-year performance period from 2016 to 2020. In 2018 additional PSU and RSU awards were granted, subject to the Shareholders’ approval at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (which is currently expected to be held on April 12, 2019), to our new Chief Executive Officer and certain key employees of the Group under the equity incentive plan.

58

For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recognized €22 million and €28 million, respectively, as share-based compensation expense and an increase to other reserves in equity for the PSU awards and RSU awards. At December 31, 2018, unrecognized compensation expense amounted to €6 million and will be recognized over the remaining vesting period through 2020.

For additional information see Note 22 “Share-Based Compensation” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document.

Patent Box Benefit - In September 2018, the Group signed an agreement with the Italian Revenue Agency in relation to the Patent Box tax regime, which provides tax benefits for companies that generate income through the use, both direct and indirect, of copyrights, patents, trademarks, designs and know-how. The agreement relates to the five-year period from 2015 to 2019. The Group applied the Patent Box tax regime for the calculation of income taxes starting in the third quarter of 2018. The Patent Box tax benefit relating to the years 2015 to 2017, amounting to €141 million, was recognized in 2018, in addition to the Patent Box tax benefit relating to the year 2018. As a result of applying the Patent Box tax regime, our tax expense was significantly reduced in 2018.

The benefit relating to the years 2015 to 2017 of €141 million, which was recognized in 2018, was excluded in the calculation of Adjusted Net Profit and Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings per Common Share for 2018.

For additional information see Note 11 “Income taxes” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document.

Securitizations - Starting in 2016 we have pursued a strategy of autonomous financing for our financial services activities in the United States, further reducing dependency on intercompany funding and increasing the portion of self-liquidating debt with various securitization transactions. At December 31, 2018 and 2017 our funding under securitization programs amounted to €683 million and €556 million, respectively.    

For additional information see Note 25 “Debt” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document.

Takata Airbag Inflator Recalls - On May 4, 2016, the United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”) published an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the November 3, 2015 Takata Consent Order regarding Takata airbags manufactured using non-desiccated Phase Stabilized Ammonium Nitrate (“PSAN”), expanding the scope of a prior recall under the Takata Consent Order. The recall is industry wide and replacement parts are limited as Takata is the single supplier. In compliance with the Amendment to the Takata Consent Order, on May 16, 2016, Takata submitted a defect information report (“DIR”) to NHTSA declaring the non-desiccated PSAN airbag inflators, including those sold by Takata to the Group, defective.

Although we are not aware of any confirmed incidents or warranty claims relating to such airbag inflators mounted in our cars or that the airbag inflators were not performing as designed, as a result of the Amendment issued by NHTSA and the DIR issued by Takata, we initiated a global recall relating to certain cars produced between 2008 and 2011. Following a Third Amendment to the Coordinated Remedy Order published by NHTSA in December 2016 and an additional Takata DIR filed on January 3, 2017, we filed an additional DIR on January 10, 2017 to also include certain cars produced in 2012. As a result of internal assessments, in 2016 we decided to extend the recall campaign to include all cars produced in all model years based on priority groups and the timeline set by NHTSA.

As a result of these developments and due to the uncertainty of recoverability of the costs from Takata, an aggregate provision of €37 million was recognized within cost of sales in the year ended December 31, 2016. At December 31, 2018, the provision amounted to €25 million, reflecting the current best estimate for future costs related to the entire recall campaign to be carried out by the Group. The decrease in the provision relates to ongoing recall activities as well as a partial release.

Due to the significant scope and industry-wide nature of the Takata recall and the supply constraints of Takata, the charges for Takata airbag inflator recalls and subsequent partial release are considered to be significant in nature but expected to incur infrequently and therefore Ferrari has excluded these charges in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted Net Profit and Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings per Common Share for 2016.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS which require the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the amounts of income and expenses recognized. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on elements that are known when the financial statements are prepared, on historical experience and on any other factors that are considered to be relevant.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed periodically and continuously by us. If the items subject to estimates do not perform as assumed, then the actual results could differ from the estimates, which would require adjustment accordingly. The effects of any changes in estimate are recognized in the consolidated income statement in the period in which the adjustment is made, or prospectively in future periods.

The items requiring estimates for which there is a risk that a material difference may arise in respect of the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the future are discussed below.

Recoverability of non-current assets with definite useful lives

Non-current assets with definite useful lives include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. Intangible assets with definite useful lives mainly consist of capitalized development costs.

We periodically review the carrying amount of non-current assets with definite useful lives when events and circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired. Impairment tests are performed by comparing the carrying amount and the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (“CGU”). The recoverable amount is the higher of the CGU’s fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the CGU.

For the period covered by the Consolidated Financial Statements, we have not recognized any impairment charges for non-current assets with definite useful lives.

Recoverability of goodwill

In accordance with IAS 36 - Impairment of Assets, goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if facts or circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired.

As the Group is composed of one operating segment, goodwill is tested at the Group level which represents the lowest level within the Group at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes in accordance with IAS 36. The impairment test is performed by comparing the carrying amount (which mainly comprises property, plant and equipment, goodwill and capitalized development costs) and the recoverable amount of the CGU. The recoverable amount of the CGU is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use.

For the period covered by the Consolidated Financial Statements, we have not recognized any impairment charges for goodwill.

Development costs

Development costs are capitalized if the conditions under IAS 38 - Intangible Assets have been met. The starting point for capitalization is based upon the technological and commercial feasibility of the project, which is usually when a product development project has reached a defined milestone according to our established product development model. Feasibility is based on management’s judgment which is formed on the basis of estimated future cash flows. Capitalization ceases and amortization of capitalized development costs begins on start of production of the relevant project.

The amortization of development costs requires management to estimate the lifecycle of the related model. Any changes in such assumptions would impact the amortization charge recorded and the carrying amount of capitalized development costs. The periodic amortization charge is derived after determining the expected lifecycle of the related model and, if applicable, any expected residual value at the end of its life. Increasing an asset’s expected lifecycle or its residual value would result in a reduced amortization charge in the consolidated income statement.

60

The useful lives and residual values of our models are determined by management at the time of capitalization and reviewed annually for appropriateness and recoverability. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events which may impact their life, such as changes in technology. Historically, changes in useful lives and residual values have not resulted in material changes to the amortization charge or estimated recoverability of the related assets.

Product warranties liabilities

We establish reserves for product warranties at the time the sale is recognized. We issue various types of product warranties under which the performance of products delivered is generally guaranteed for a certain period or term, which is generally defined by the legislation in the country where the car is sold. The reserve for product warranties includes the expected costs of warranty obligations imposed by law or contract, as well as the expected costs for policy coverage. The estimated future costs of these actions are principally based on assumptions regarding the lifetime warranty costs of each car line and each model year of that car line, as well as historical claims experience for our cars. In addition, the number and magnitude of additional service actions expected to be approved, and policies related to additional service actions, are taken into consideration. Due to the uncertainty and potential volatility of these estimated factors, changes in the assumptions used could materially affect the results of operations.

We periodically initiate voluntary service actions to address various client satisfaction, safety and emissions issues related to cars sold. Included in the reserve is the estimated cost of these services and recall actions. The estimated future costs of these actions are based primarily on historical claims experience for our cars and the cost of parts and services to be incurred in the specified activities, and are recognized at the time when they are probable and reasonably estimable. Estimates of the future costs of these actions are inevitably imprecise due to several uncertainties, including the number of cars affected by a service or recall action. It is reasonably possible that the ultimate cost of these service and recall actions may require us to make expenditures in excess of (or less than) established reserves over an extended period of time. The estimate of warranty and additional service obligations is periodically reviewed during the year.

In addition, we make provisions for estimated product liability costs arising from property damage and personal injuries including wrongful death, and potential exemplary or punitive damages alleged to be the result of product defects. By nature, these costs can be infrequent, difficult to predict and have the potential to vary significantly in amount. Costs associated with these provisions are recorded in the consolidated income statement and any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the period in which the adjustment is determined.

Share-based compensation

We account for our equity incentive plan in accordance with IFRS 2 - Share-based Payment, which requires the recognition of share-based compensation expense based on the fair value of the awards granted. Share-based compensation for equity-settled awards containing market performance conditions is measured at the grant date of the awards using the Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected volatility of our common stock, the dividend yield, interest rates and the correlation coefficient between our common stock and the relevant market index. The probability that the Group will achieve a certain level of Total Shareholder Return performance compared to the defined peer group is also considered. As a result, at the grant date management is required to make key assumptions and estimates regarding conditions that will occur in the future, which inherently involves uncertainty. Therefore, the amount of share-based compensation recognized has been effected by the significant assumptions and estimates used.

Other contingent liabilities

We make provisions in connection with pending or threatened disputes or legal proceedings when it is considered probable that there will be an outflow of funds and when the amount can be reasonably estimated. If an outflow of funds becomes possible but the amount cannot be estimated, the matter is disclosed in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. We are the subject of legal and tax proceedings covering a wide range of matters in various jurisdictions. Due to the uncertainty inherent in such matters, it is difficult to predict the outflow of funds that could result from such disputes with any certainty. Moreover, the cases and claims against us often derive from complex legal issues which are subject to a differing degree of uncertainty, including the facts and circumstances of each particular case and the manner in which applicable law is likely to be interpreted and applied to such fact and circumstances, and the jurisdiction and the different laws involved. We monitor the status of pending legal proceedings and consult with experts on legal and tax matters on a regular basis. It is therefore possible that the provisions for our legal proceedings and litigation may vary as the result of future developments in pending matters.

61

Litigation

Various legal proceedings, claims and governmental investigations are pending against us on a wide range of topics, including car safety, emissions and fuel economy, early warning reporting, dealer, supplier and other contractual relationships, intellectual property rights and product warranty matters. Some of these proceedings allege defects in specific component parts or systems (including airbags, seatbelts, brakes, transmissions, engines and fuel systems) in various car models or allege general design defects relating to car handling and stability, sudden unintended movement or crashworthiness. These proceedings seek recovery for damage to property, personal injuries or wrongful death and in some cases could include a claim for exemplary or punitive damages. Adverse decisions in one or more of these proceedings could require us to pay substantial damages, or undertake service actions, recall campaigns or other costly actions.

Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of individual matters is not predictable with assurance. An accrual is established in connection with pending or threatened litigation if a loss is probable and a reliable estimate can be made. Since these accruals represent estimates, it is reasonably possible that the resolution of some of these matters could require us to make payments in excess of the amounts accrued. It is also reasonably possible that the resolution of some of the matters for which accruals could not be made may require us to make payments in an amount or range of amounts that could not be reasonably estimated.

The term “reasonably possible” is used herein to mean that the chance of a future transaction or event occurring is more than remote but less than probable. Although the final resolution of any such matters could have a material effect on our operating results for the particular reporting period in which an adjustment of the estimated reserve is recorded, it is believed that any resulting adjustment would not materially affect our consolidated financial position.

62

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We monitor and evaluate our operating and financial performance using several non-GAAP financial measures including: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted Net Profit, Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings per Common Share, Net Debt, Net Industrial Debt, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities, 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 regarding our performance and 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.

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 income and costs, which are significant in nature, but expected to occur infrequently. The following table sets forth the calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, and provides a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to net profit. 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 presented to demonstrate how the underlying business has performed prior to the impact of the adjusted items which may obscure underlying performance and impair comparability of results between periods.

	For the years ended December 31,
	2018		2017	2016
	(€ million)
Net profit	787		537	400

Adjusted EBITDA	1,114		1,036	880

Adjusted EBIT

Adjusted EBIT represents EBIT as adjusted for income and costs, which are significant in nature, but expected to occur infrequently. We present such information in order to present how the underlying business has performed prior to the impact of such items, which may obscure underlying performance and impair comparability of results between the periods. The following table sets forth the calculation of Adjusted EBIT for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

	For the years ended December 31,

(Release of charges)/Charges for Takata airbag inflator recalls	(1	)	—	37
Adjusted EBIT	825		775	632

63

Adjusted Net Profit

Adjusted Net Profit represents net profit as adjusted for income and costs (net of tax effect), which are significant in nature, but expected to occur infrequently. The tax effect is calculated by applying the corporate tax rate in Italy, which was 24.0 percent for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and 27.5 percent for the year ended December 31, 2016, and the Italian Regional Income Tax (“IRAP”), which was 3.9 percent for all years presented. We provide such information in order to present how the underlying business has performed prior to the impact of such items, which may obscure underlying performance and impair comparability of results between the periods. The following table sets forth the calculation of Adjusted Net Profit for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

Adjusted Net Profit	645		537	425

Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings per Common Share

Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings per Common Share represents earnings per share, as adjusted for income and costs (net of tax effect), which are significant in nature, but expected to occur infrequently. The tax effect is calculated by applying the corporate tax rate in Italy, which was 24.0 percent for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and 27.5 percent for the year ended December 31, 2016, and the Italian Regional Income Tax (“IRAP”), which was 3.9 percent for all years presented. We provide such information in order to present how the underlying business has performed prior to the impact of such items, which may obscure underlying performance and impair comparability of results between the periods. The following table sets forth the calculation of Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings per Common Share for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

		For the years ended December 31,
		2018		2017	2016

_____________________________

(1) The weighted average number of common shares for diluted earnings per share was increased to take into consideration the theoretical effect of (i) the potential common shares that would be issued under the equity incentive plan for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and (ii) the potential common shares that would have been issued for the Non-Executive Directors’ compensation agreement for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

Net Debt and Net Industrial Debt

Net Industrial Debt is the primary measure used by us to analyze our financial leverage and capital structure, and is one of the key indicators, together with Net Debt, we use to measure our financial position. These measures are presented by management to aid investors in their analysis of the Group’s financial position and financial performance and to compare the

64

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 funded portion of the self-liquidating financial receivables portfolio, which is the portion of our receivables from financing activities that we fund with external debt or intercompany loans.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Net Debt and Net Industrial Debt at December 31, 2018, and 2017.

	At December 31,
	2018		2017
	(€ million)
Cash and cash equivalents	794		648
Debt	(1,927	)	(1,806	)
Net Debt	(1,133	)	(1,158	)
Funded portion of the self-liquidating financial receivables portfolio	793		685
Net Industrial Debt	(340	)	(473	)

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 cash flows used in investing activities. Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities is defined as Free Cash Flow adjusted for the change in the self-liquidating financial receivables portfolio, which is the change in our receivables from financing activities. The following table sets forth our Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

	For the years ended December 31,
	2018		2017		2016
	(€ million)
Cash flows from operating activities	934		663		1,005
Cash flows used in investing activities	(637	)	(379	)	(320	)
Free Cash Flow	297		284		685
Change in the self-liquidating financial receivables portfolio	107		44		(405	)
Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities	404		328		280

The change in the self-liquidating financial receivables portfolio in 2016 primarily relates to the deconsolidation of FFS GmbH following the sale of a majority stake in FFS GmbH to FCA Bank in November 2016.

Constant Currency Information

The “Results of Operations” discussion below 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 2 “Significant Accounting Policies” to the Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this document, 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 year-on-year and the impacts of hedging provide additional useful information to investors regarding the operating performance on a local currency basis.

2018 compared to 2017

Net revenues for 2018 were €3,420 million, an increase of €3 million, or 0.1 percent (an increase of 3.2 percent on a constant currency basis), from €3,417 million for 2017.    

The increase in net revenues was attributable to the combination of (i) a €79 million increase in cars and spare parts net revenues, (ii) a €12 million increase in sponsorship, commercial and brand net revenues, and (iii) a €1 million increase in

other net revenues, partially offset by (iv) a €89 million decrease in engines net revenues.

Cars and spare parts

Cars and spare parts net revenues were €2,535 million for 2018, an increase of €79 million, or 3.2 percent, from €2,456 million for 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to a €145 million increase in net revenues from range and special series cars, partially offset by a €66 million decrease in net revenues from hypercars and limited edition cars.

The €145 million increase in net revenues from range and special series cars and spare parts was principally attributable to an increase in shipments driven by the 812 Superfast, as well as a greater contribution from personalization programs and pricing increases, partially offset by significant negative foreign currency exchange impact. Shipments of V12 range and special series models increased by approximately 25 percent, primarily attributable to shipments of the 812 Superfast, which commenced in the third quarter of 2017, partially offset by the phase-outs of the limited series F12tdf and the F12berlinetta in 2017. Shipments of V8 range and special series models increased by approximately 7 percent, mainly due to the Ferrari Portofino and our first shipments of the newly launched 488 Pista, partially offset by the phase-out of the California T in 2018.

The €145 million increase in net revenues from range and special series cars and spare parts was composed of increases in all four of our geographical regions, including: (i) an €88 million increase in EMEA, (ii) a €32 million increase in Americas, (iii) a €21 million increase in Rest of APAC, and (iv) a €4 million increase in Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.    

(i) The €88 million increase in EMEA net revenues was primarily attributable to positive volume and pricing, as well as greater contribution from personalization programs. The positive volume was driven by double-digit growth in shipments in the UK, Italy, France, Switzerland, Germany and Other EMEA.

(ii) The €32 million increase in Americas net revenues was primarily attributable to positive volume and pricing, as well as a greater contribution from our personalization programs, partially offset by negative foreign currency translation impact.

(iii) The €21 million increase in Rest of APAC net revenues was primarily attributable to positive volumes in Japan and to a lesser extent in Australia and other countries within Rest of APAC, partially offset by negative foreign currency translation impact in Japan and Australia.

(iv) The €4 million increase in Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan net revenues was primarily attributable to positive volume and mix, partially offset by negative foreign currency translation impact.

The positive volume impacts referred to above were primarily attributable to the Ferrari Portofino, the 812 Superfast and the newly launched 488 Pista, partially offset by the phase-out of the California T.

The €66 million decrease in net revenues from hypercars and limited edition cars was primarily attributable to a decrease in shipments of the LaFerrari Aperta, which finished its limited series run in 2018, partially offset by deliveries of the strictly limited edition Ferrari J50 and the FXX K EVO.

Engines

Net revenues generated from engines were €284 million for 2018, a decrease of €89 million, or 23.8 percent, from €373 million for 2017. The €89 million decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease in net revenues generated from the sale of engines to Maserati, driven by a decrease in the number of engines shipped in 2018 compared to 2017.

67

Sponsorship, commercial and brand

Net revenues generated from sponsorship, commercial agreements and brand management activities were €506 million for 2018, an increase of €12 million, or 2.4 percent, from €494 million for 2017. The increase was primarily related to sponsorship revenues and a higher 2017 championship ranking compared to 2016, partially offset by other brand related activities and negative foreign currency exchange impact.

Other

Othernet revenues, which primarily relate to our financial services activities and management of the Mugello racetrack, amounted to €94 million for 2017 and €95 million for 2018.

2017 compared to 2016

Net revenues for 2017 were €3,417 million, an increase of €312 million, or 10.0 percent (an increase of 8.4 percent on a constant currency basis), from €3,105 million for 2016.

The increase in net revenues, including the positive impact of foreign currency hedging instruments, was attributable to the combination of (i) a €276 million increase in cars and spare parts net revenues, (ii) a €35 million increase in engines net revenues and (iii) a €6 million increase in sponsorship, commercial and brand net revenues, partially offset by (iv) a €5 million decrease in other net revenues.

Cars and spare parts

Cars and spare parts net revenues were €2,456 million for 2017, an increase of €276 million, or 12.7 percent, from €2,180 million for 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to a €249 million increase in net revenues from range and special series cars and spare parts, as well as a €27 million increase in net revenues from hypercars and limited edition cars.

The €249 million increase in net revenues from range and special series cars and spare parts was principally attributable to an increase in shipments of approximately 360 cars (excluding the LaFerrari and the LaFerrari Aperta) and positive mix, along with a greater contribution from personalization programs and pricing increases. Shipments of V12 range and special series models increased by approximately 25 percent, primarily attributable to an increase in shipments of the GTC4Lusso and our first shipments of the newly launched 812 Superfast which is now being sold in most of our markets, partially offset by the phase-outs of the F12berlinetta and the FF, as well as the F12tdf, which finished its limited series run. Shipments of V8 range models were in line with 2016, as increases in shipments of the 488 family and the GTC4Lusso T were substantially offset by the phase-out of the California T.

The €249 million increase in net revenues from range and special series cars and spare parts reflects increases in all four of our major geographical markets, including (i) a €146 million increase in EMEA, (ii) a €40 million increase in Americas, (iii) a €36 million increase in Rest of APAC, and (iv) a €27 million increase in Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

(i) The €146 million increase in EMEA net revenues was primarily attributable to an increase in shipments and a greater contribution from personalization programs. The increase in shipments was driven by double-digit growth in shipments in Italy, France, and the UK, as well as mid-single digit growth in Germany, Switzerland and Other EMEA. The increase in shipments was primarily related to the 488 and GTC4Lusso families, as well as our first shipments of the newly launched 812 Superfast, which commenced in EMEA in the third quarter of 2017. This increase was partially offset by the phase-outs of the California T and F12berlinetta, as well as the F12tdf. A decrease in net revenues in the Middle East was primarily due to a reallocation of shipments into different markets triggered by difficult market conditions in the Middle East.

(ii) The €40 million increase in Americas net revenues was primarily attributable to positive volume and mix, along with a greater contribution from our personalization programs, partially offset by negative foreign currency translation impact. In particular, the positive volume was driven by the 488 family and the GTC4Lusso, as well as the entry of the GTC4Lusso T and the 812 Superfast on the market in the fourth quarter of 2017, partially offset by the phase-outs of the California T and F12berlinetta, as well as the F12tdf.

68

(iii) The €36 million increase in Rest of APAC net revenues was primarily attributable to increases in Japan and other Rest of APAC, and to a lesser extent in Australia. The increase in Japan was driven by single-digit growth in shipments, primarily due to the GTC4Lusso family, partially offset by the phase-outs of the California T and F12berlinetta as well as negative foreign currency translation impact. Double-digit growth in shipments was achieved in Australia and Rest of APAC, supported by the 488 and the GTC4Lusso families.

(iv) The €27 million increase in Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan net revenues was primarily attributable to a positive mix, driven by the GTC4Lusso family and other V12 models, particularly in Mainland China, partially offset by a slowdown in Hong Kong due to our decision to terminate the distributor in 2016 and the new dealership only becoming fully operational in the third quarter of 2017.

The €27 million increase in net revenues from supercars and limited edition cars was primarily attributable to shipments of LaFerrari Aperta, partially offset by the phase out of the LaFerrari shipments, which ended in 2016, as well as the non-registered racing car FXX K and the strictly limited edition F60 America completing their limited series run in 2016.

Engines

Net revenues generated from engines were €373 million for 2017, an increase of €35 million, or 10.5 percent, from €338 million for 2016. The €35 million increase was mainly attributable to an increase in net revenues generated from the sale of engines to Maserati, driven by a 25 percent increase in the volume of engines shipped, partially offset by a decrease in net revenues from the rental of engines to Formula 1 racing teams due to the termination of the rental agreement with one of the Formula 1 teams.

Sponsorship, commercial and brand

Net revenues generated from sponsorship, commercial agreements and brand management activities were €494 million for 2017, an increase of €6 million, or 1.1 percent, from €488 million for 2016. The increase was primarily related an increase in net revenues from sponsorship and brand activities, partially offset by a decrease in Formula 1 net revenues due to our lower ranking in the World Constructors’ Championship in 2016 compared to 2015.

Other

Othernet revenues were €94 million for 2017, a decrease of €5 million, or 5.1 percent, from €99 million for 2016. The €5 million decrease in other net revenues was primarily driven by the deconsolidation of the financial services business in Europe since November 2016 following the sale of a majority stake in FFS GmbH to FCA Bank.

2018 compared to 2017

Cost of sales for 2018 was €1,623 million, a decrease of €28 million, or 1.7 percent, from €1,651 million for 2017. As a percentage of net revenues, cost of sales decreased from 48.3 percent in 2017 to 47.4 percent in 2018.

The decrease in cost of sales was primarily attributable to (i) a decrease of €122 million driven by lower engine volumes and lower industrial costs, including warranty charges, partially offset by (ii) an increase in costs of €94 million driven by an increase in volumes, as well as higher depreciation.

The increase in cost of sales related to volumes was driven by the 812 Superfast, the Ferrari Portofino and the newly-launched 488 Pista, partially offset by the phase-outs of the F12tdf, the F12berlinetta and the California T.

69

2017 compared to 2016

Cost of sales for 2017 was €1,651 million, an increase of €71 million, or 4.5 percent, from €1,580 million for 2016. As a percentage of net revenues, cost of sales decreased from 50.9 percent in 2016 to 48.3 percent in 2017.

The increase in cost of sales was primarily attributable to (i) increased costs of €58 million driven by an increase in volumes and personalization programs, (ii) increased costs of €46 million driven by an increase in production volumes of engines for Maserati and costs for other supporting activities and (iii) an increase in production costs, including depreciation, of €4 million, partially offset by (iv) the effect of charges in 2016 for Takata airbag inflator recalls of €37 million.

The €58 million increase in cost of sales related to volumes and personalization programs was driven by the 488 family, the GTC4Lusso and the 812 Superfast. The €46 million increase in cost of sales related to the production of engines for Maserati and other supporting activities was driven by a 25 percent increase in the volume of engines shipped to Maserati.

2018 compared to 2017

Selling, general and administrative costs for 2018 were €327 million, a decrease of €2 million, or 0.5 percent, from €329 million for 2017. As a percentage of net revenues, selling, general and administrative costs were substantially unchanged.

2017 compared to 2016

Selling, general and administrative costs for 2017 were €329 million, an increase of €34 million, or 11.5 percent, from €295 million for 2016. As a percentage of net revenues, selling, general and administrative costs were substantially unchanged.

The increase in selling, general and administrative costs was primarily attributable to (i) share-based compensation expense related to the equity incentive plan, (ii) costs related to initiatives for Ferrari’s 70th anniversary, and (iii) costs related to new directly operated Ferrari stores, partially offset by (iv) the costs of the former CEO (Mr. Amedeo Felisa) retirement package recognized in 2016 and (v) a decrease in costs due to the deconsolidation of FFS GmbH since November 2016.

2018 compared to 2017

Research and development costs for 2018 were €643 million, a decrease of €14 million, or 2.1 percent, from €657 million for 2017. As a percentage of net revenues, research and development costs were 18.8 percent in 2018 compared to 19.2 percent in 2017.

The decrease in research and development costs was attributable to a decrease of €28 million in research and development costs expensed, primarily driven by lower research and development costs for Formula 1 activities and lower research activities for our GT and sports cars, partially offset by an increase of €14 million in amortization of capitalized development costs.

2017 compared to 2016

Research and development costs for 2017 were €657 million, an increase of €43 million, or 7.1 percent, from €614 million for 2016. As a percentage of net revenues, research and development costs were 19.2 percent in 2017 compared to 19.8 percent in 2016.

The increase in research and development costs was attributable to an increase of €46 million in research and development costs expensed, partially offset by a decrease of €3 million in amortization of capitalized development costs.

The €46 million increase in research and development costs expensed during the year was primarily driven by research and development to support the innovation of our product range and components, in particular in relation to hybrid technology, partially offset by a decrease in research and development expenses for Formula 1 activities.    

Other expenses, net

	For the years ended December 31,			Increase/(Decrease)
	2018	2017	2016	2018 vs. 2017				2017 vs. 2016

2018 compared to 2017

Other expenses, net for 2018 amounted to net other expenses of €4 million, a decrease of €3 million, or 53.5 percent, compared to net other expenses of €7 million for 2017.

For 2018, other expenses, net included other expenses of €19 million, which mainly related to indirect taxes, accruals for provisions and miscellaneous expenses, partially offset by other income of €15 million, which mainly related to a favorable ruling on a prior year’s legal dispute, and to a lesser extent other miscellaneous income.

For 2017, other expenses, net included other expenses of €12 million, which mainly related to indirect taxes and miscellaneous expenses, partially offset by other income of €5 million, which mainly related to gains on disposals of property, plant and equipment, rental income and miscellaneous income.

2017 compared to 2016

Other expenses, net for 2017 amounted to net other expenses of €7 million, a decrease of €17 million, or 72.0 percent, compared to net other expenses of €24 million for 2016.

For 2017, other expenses, net included other expenses of €12 million, which mainly related to indirect taxes and miscellaneous expenses, partially offset by other income of €5 million, which mainly related to gains on disposals of property, plant and equipment, rental income and miscellaneous income.

71

For 2016, other expenses, net included other expenses of €30 million, which mainly related to provisions (primarily due to disputes with a distributor), indirect taxes and miscellaneous expenses, partially offset by other income of €6 million, which mainly related to gains on the disposal of property plant and equipment, rental income and miscellaneous income.

EBIT

	For the years ended December 31,									Increase/(Decrease)
	2018	Percentage of net revenues		2017	Percentage of net revenues		2016	Percentage of net revenues		2018 vs. 2017			2017 vs. 2016

EBIT	826	24.2	%	775	22.7	%	595	19.2	%	51	6.6	%	180	30.3	%

2018 compared to 2017

EBIT for 2018 was €826 million, an increase of €51 million, or 6.6 percent, from €775 million for 2017. As a percentage of net revenues, EBIT increased from 22.7 percent in 2017 to 24.2 percent in 2018.

The increase in EBIT was primarily attributable to the combined effects of (i) positive volume impact of €118 million, (ii) positive contribution from other supporting activities of €26 million, (iii) a decrease in research and development costs of €14 million, and (iv) a decrease in selling, general and administrative costs of €2 million, partially offset by (v) negative product mix of €17 million and (vi) negative foreign currency exchange impact of €92 million (including foreign currency hedging instruments) primarily driven by fluctuations in the U.S. Dollar, the Pound Sterling and the Japanese Yen compared to the Euro.

The positive volume impact of €118 million was attributable to an increase in total shipments, driven by the 812 Superfast, the Ferrari Portofino and the 488 Pista. The negative product mix of €17 million was primarily attributable to the combined impact of lower sales of LaFerrari Aperta and the strong performance of the Ferrari Portofino, partially offset by the 812 Superfast, as well as pricing increases and deliveries of the strictly limited edition Ferrari J50 and the FXX K EVO. The positive contribution from other supporting activities of €26 million was primarily attributable to sponsorship activities, a higher 2017 championship ranking compared to 2016 and a favorable ruling on a prior year’s legal dispute, partially offset by a lower contribution from other brand related activities and engines supplied to Maserati.

The increase in EBIT as a percentage of net revenues from 22.7 percent in 2017 to 24.2 percent in 2018 was primarily attributable to the combination of the previously mentioned effects on EBIT, including a decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of net revenues from 48.3 percent in 2017 to 47.4 percent in 2018.

2017 compared to 2016

EBIT for 2017 was €775 million, an increase of €180 million, or 30.3 percent, from €595 million for 2016. As a percentage of net revenues, EBIT increased from 19.2 percent in 2016 to 22.7 percent in 2017.

The increase in EBIT was primarily attributable to (i) positive volume impact of €67 million, (ii) favorable mix impact of €80 million, (iii) positive net foreign currency exchange impact of €53 million (resulting from positive €101 million relating to foreign currency hedging instruments, partially offset by an adverse impact on revenues from the weakening of foreign currencies against the Euro) and (iv) a decrease of €57 million in other supporting costs, including the effect of charges in 2016 for Takata airbag inflator recalls of €37 million, partially offset by (v) an increase in research and development costs of €43 million and (vi) an increase in selling, general and administrative costs of €34 million.

The positive volume impact was attributable to an increase in shipments of approximately 360 cars (excluding the LaFerrari and LaFerrari Aperta), driven by the GTC4Lusso and the 488 families, as well as our first shipments of the newly launched 812 Superfast, together with positive contribution from our personalization programs. These positive effects on volume were partially offset by the phase-outs of the California T and the F12berlinetta, as well as the F12tdf, which finished its limited series run in 2017. The favorable mix impact of €80 million was primarily attributable to an increase in shipments of the LaFerrari Aperta, as well as an increase in shipments of our V12 range and special series models and pricing increases. These positive effects on mix were partially offset by the end of the LaFerrari lifecycle in 2016, as well as the non-registered racing car FXX K and the strictly limited edition F60 America completing their limited series runs in 2016.

72

The increase in EBIT as a percentage of net revenues from 19.2 percent in 2016 to 22.7 percent in 2017, was primarily attributable to the combination of the previously mentioned effects on EBIT above, including a decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of net revenues from 50.9 percent in 2016 to 48.3 percent in 2017.

Net financial expenses

	For the years ended December 31,			Increase/(Decrease)
	2018	2017	2016	2018 vs. 2017				2017 vs. 2016
	(€ million, except percentages)
Net financial expenses	23	29	28	(6	)	(19.5	)%	1	5.5%

2018 compared to 2017

Net financial expenses for 2018 were €23 million compared to €29 million for 2017, representing a decrease of €6 million.

The decrease in net financial expenses was primarily attributable to (i) a decrease in interest expenses and (ii) a decrease in net foreign exchange losses. The decrease in interest expenses was mainly driven by lower interest on bank borrowings due to the full repayment of the Term Loan in November 2017, partially offset by higher interest on bonds due to a new bond issued in November 2017. For the year ended December 31, 2017, net financial expenses included gains resulting from exercising the Delta Topco option.

2017 compared to 2016

Net financial expenses for 2017 were €29 million compared to €28 million for 2016, representing an increase of €1 million.

An increase in (i) net foreign exchange losses and (ii) interest expenses on bonds was substantially offset by (iii) a decrease in interest expenses on bank borrowings, primarily related to the Term Loan and the Bridge Loan which were fully repaid in November 2017 and March 2016, respectively, and (iv) gains resulting from exercising the Delta Topco option.

Income tax expense

	For the years ended December 31,			Increase/(Decrease)
	2018	2017	2016	2018 vs. 2017				2017 vs. 2016
	(€ million, except percentages)
Income tax expense	16	209	167	(193	)	(92.2	)%	42	24.5	%

2018 compared to 2017

Income tax expense for 2018was €16 million, a decrease of €193 million, or 92.2 percent, from €209 million for 2017. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily attributable to the positive impact from the application of the Patent Box tax regime (as described below), including €141 million of Patent Box benefits related to the years 2015 to 2017 (of which €139 million was from direct use and €2 million was from indirect use of copyrights, patents, trademarks, designs and know-how) and the estimated Patent Box tax benefit relating to the year 2018, which amounted to €61 million.

In September 2018, the Group signed an agreement with the Italian Revenue Agency in relation to the Patent Box tax regime, which provides a tax benefit for companies that generate income through the use, both direct and indirect, of copyrights, patents, trademarks, designs and know-how. For further information see Note 12 “Income Taxes” to our Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document.

2017 compared to 2016

Income tax expense for 2017 was €209 million, an increase of €42 million, or 24.5 percent, from €167 million for 2016. The increase in income tax expense was primarily attributable to an increase in profit before taxes from €567 million in 2016 to €746 million in 2017, partially offset by a decrease in the effective tax rate net of IRAP from 25.8 percent in 2016 to 24.2

73

percent in 2017. The decrease in the effective tax rate net of IRAP was primarily attributable to the combined effects of a reduction in the corporate income tax rate from 27.5 percent to 24.0 percent (effective from 2017), deductions related to eligible research and development costs and depreciation of fixed assets in accordance with tax regulations in Italy, partially offset by a decrease in net deferred tax assets due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”), which was enacted into law in the U.S. on December 22, 2017.

The Tax Act includes various changes to the tax law, including a reduction in the corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent effective January 1, 2018. We recognized the effects of the changes in the tax rate and laws resulting from the Tax Act in 2017, which resulted in a €4.7 million decrease in net deferred tax assets.

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity Overview

We require liquidity in order to fund our business operations and meet our obligations. Short-term liquidity is required to purchase raw materials, parts and components for car production, as well as to fund selling, general, administrative, research and development, and other expenses. In addition to our general working capital and operational needs, we expect to use cash for capital expenditures to support our existing product range and broaden our future product portfolio. We make capital investments, primarily in Italy, for initiatives to develop and introduce new products, enhance manufacturing efficiency and improve capacity, as well as for maintenance and environmental compliance. Our capital expenditure in 2018 was primarily to support continuous product range renewal and expansion, as well as research and development expenditure to transition our product portfolio to hybrid technology. We fund our capital expenditure primarily with cash generated from our operating activities.

Our business and results of operations depend on our ability to achieve certain minimum car shipment volumes. We have significant fixed costs and therefore, changes in our car shipment volumes can have a significant effect on profitability and liquidity. We centrally manage our operating cash management, liquidity and cash flow requirements on a standalone basis with the objective of ensuring effective and efficient management of our funds. We believe that our cash generation together with our current liquidity will be sufficient to meet our obligations and fund our business and capital expenditures.

See “Net Debt and Net Industrial Debt” below for additional details relating to the our liquidity.

Cyclical Nature of our Cash Flows

Our working capital is subject to month to month fluctuations due to, among other things, production volumes, activity of our financial services portfolio, timing of tax payments and capital expenditure. In particular, our inventory levels increase in the periods leading up to the launches of new models, during the phase out of existing models 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 (except when we provide dealer financing or sell invoices to a factor) while we tend to pay most suppliers between 60 and 90 days after we receive the raw materials or components. Additionally, we also receive advance payments from our customers, mainly for our hypercars and limited edition cars (and starting in 2019, our Icona cars). We maintain sufficient inventory of raw materials and components to ensure continuity of our production lines but 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 to ensure prompt deliveries in certain regions we may warehouse cars in local markets for longer periods of time. As a result of the above, including the advances received from customers on certain models, we tend to receive payment for cars shipped before we are required to make payment for the raw materials and components used in manufacturing the cars.

Our capital expenditure requirements are, among other things, influenced by the timing and the number of new model 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 refresh our product range. Going forward, our capital expenditure will also be influenced by research and development expenditure to support the expansion of our product range. We significantly increased our capital expenditure in 2018 and we expect our capital expenditure will continue to increase in 2019 to further our investments in hybrid technology and fuel future growth. Capital expenditure is also influenced by the timing of research and developments costs for our Formula 1 activities, for which expenditure is generally higher in the first and last quarter of the year.

The payment of taxes also affects our working capital. We typically pay our taxes in two advances. In 2017, we paid the remaining balance of 2016 taxes as well as the first advance in relation to 2017 taxes in the second quarter, and we paid the second advance in relation to 2017 taxes in the fourth quarter. In the second quarter of 2018, we paid the remaining balance of 2017 taxes as well as the first advance in relation to 2018 taxes. As a result of signing an agreement in September 2018 with the Italian Revenue Agency in relation to our application of the Patent Box tax regime for the years 2015 to 2019, our tax expense

75

was significantly reduced in 2018 and we did not pay the second advance in relation to 2018 taxes in the fourth quarter of 2018. The current Patent Box ruling remains in force until fiscal year 2019. The potential applicability of the Patent Box tax regime beyond 2019 will depend on future changes to Italian tax legislation. See Note 11 “Income Taxes” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details related to the Patent Box.

Operating Activities — Year Ended December 31, 2018

For the year ended December 31, 2018, our cash flows from operating activities were €934 million, primarily the result of:

(i) profit before tax of €803 million, adjusted to add back €289 million of depreciation and amortization expense, €30 million of other non-cash expenses and income (including net gains on disposals of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets as well as non-cash result from investments), €23 million of net finance costs and €16 million in provisions accrued. Other non-cash expenses were primarily attributable to share-based compensation expense under the equity incentive plan;

In particular, the movement was attributable to (a) cash generated from trade payables of €40 million driven by higher capital expenditures and an increase in volumes, (b) cash generated by trade receivables of €27 million, partially offset by (c) cash absorbed by inventory of €5 million.

These cash inflows were partially offset by:

(i) €107 million of cash absorbed from receivables from financing activities driven by an increase in the financial services portfolio in the United States;

(ii) €83 million of cash absorbed by the change in other operating assets and liabilities, primarily attributable to a decrease in advances for the LaFerrari Aperta and the Ferrari J50;

(iii) €11 million of net finance costs paid; and

Other non-cash expenses were primarily attributable to share-based compensation expense under the equity incentive plan and equity-settled Non-Executive Directors’ compensation.

These cash inflows were partially offset by:

(i) €73 million related to cash absorbed by the change in other operating assets and liabilities, primarily attributable to a decrease in advances for the LaFerrari Aperta in 2017, partially offset by advances received for the Ferrari J50;

(ii) €61 million related to cash absorbed by the net change in inventories, trade payables and trade receivables. In particular, the movement was attributable to (a) cash absorbed by inventory of €88 million driven by projected volume growth in line with our 2018 production outlook, and (b) cash absorbed by trade receivables of €2 million, partially offset by (c) cash generated from trade payables of €29 million, driven by an increase in volumes;

(iii) €44 million related to cash absorbed from receivables from financing activities driven by an increase in the financial services portfolio in the United States;

(iv) €32 million of net finance costs paid; and

(v) income tax paid of €215 million, primarily related to the payment of the remaining balance of 2016 taxes and advances of 2017 taxes.

Operating Activities — Year Ended December 31, 2016

For the year ended December 31, 2016, our cash flows from operating activities were €1,005 million, primarily the result of:

(i) profit before tax of €567 million, adjusted to add back €248 million of depreciation and amortization expense, €82 million in provisions and €28 million of net finance costs, partially offset by €41 million related to other non-cash expenses and income and net gains on disposal of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, as well as €3 million non-cash result from investments. The €82 million in provisions accrued was primarily attributable to (a) a warranty and recall campaigns provision of €60 million, of which €37 million related to the Takata airbag inflator recalls and the remainder primarily related to an increase in volumes, and (b) other risks of €22 million, primarily related to disputes with a distributor;

(ii) €405 million related to cash generated by a decrease in receivables from financing activities, primarily attributable to a cash payment of €432 million received in November 2016 following the sale by the Group of the majority stake in FFS GmbH to FCA Bank, as a result of which FFS GmbH was deconsolidated by the Group and the funding of FFS GmbH is being directly provided by FCA Bank (see Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), partially offset by an increase in the financial services portfolio in the United States; and

(iii) €7 million relating to cash generated by other operating assets and liabilities, which benefited by approximately €69 million from advances received, mainly related to the LaFerrari Aperta.

These cash inflows were partially offset by:

(i) €20 million in net finance costs paid;

(ii) €16 million related to cash absorbed by the net change in inventories, trade payables and trade receivables. In particular, the movement was attributable to (a) cash absorbed by inventory of €33 million, (b) cash absorbed by trade receivables of €89 million, partially offset by (c) cash generated from trade payables of €106 million, all of which were driven by an increase in volumes and Maserati engines; and

77

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures are defined as cash outflows that result in additions to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. Capital expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2018 were €639 million (€392 million and €342 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively).

The following table sets a forth a breakdown of capital expenditures by category for each of the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016:

	For the years ended December 31,
	2018	2017	2016
	(€ million)
Intangible assets
Externally acquired and internally generated development costs	318	185	141
Patents, concessions and licenses	14	12	12
Other intangible assets	6	6	13
Total intangible assets	338	203	166
Property, plant and equipment
Industrial buildings	15	5	6
Plant, machinery and equipment	82	132	82
Other assets	10	13	7
Advances and assets under construction	194	39	81
Total property, plant and equipment	301	189	176
Total capital expenditures	639	392	342

Intangible assets

Our total capital expenditures in intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 2018 were €338 million (€203 million and €166 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively), the most significant component of which relates to externally acquired and internally generated development costs. In particular, we make such investments to support the development of our current and future product offering. The capitalized development costs primarily include materials costs and personnel expenses relating to engineering, design and development focused on content enhancement of existing cars and new models, including to transition our product portfolio to hybrid technology. We constantly invest in product development to ensure we can quickly and efficiently respond to market demand and/or technological breakthroughs and in order to maintain our position at the top of the performance and luxury sports car market.

The increase in externally acquired and internally generated development costs reflects the gradual introduction of hybrid technology into our product portfolio. We believe hybrid technology is one of the keys to providing continuing performance upgrades to our sports car customers, and will also help us capture the preferences of the urban, affluent purchasers of GT cars whom we are increasingly targeting.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, we invested €318 million in externally acquired and internally generated development costs, of which €203 million related to development of models to be launched in future years and €115 million primarily related to the development of our current product portfolio as well as components.

80

For the year ended December 31, 2017, we invested €185 million in externally acquired and internally generated development costs, of which €98 million related to development of models to be launched in future years and €87 million primarily related to the development of our current product portfolio as well as components.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, we invested €141 million in externally acquired and internally generated development costs, of which €85 million related to development of models to be launched in future years and €56 million primarily related to the development of our current current product portfolio as well as components.

Property, plant and equipment

Our total capital expenditure in property, plant and equipment for the year ended December 31, 2018 was €301 million (€189 million and €176 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively).

Our most significant investments generally relate to plant, machinery and equipment, which amounted to €82 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 (€132 million and €82 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively) as well as advances and assets under construction, which amounted to €194 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 (€39 million and €81 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively). Our most significant 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 expenditures related to our personalization programs and engine assembly lines. The increase in capital expenditures in advances and assets under construction reflects our focus on the hybridization and broadening of our product range and supporting future model launches.

At December 31, 2018, the Group had contractual commitments for the purchase of property, plant and equipment amounting to €146 million.

Net Debt and Net Industrial Debt

Net Industrial Debt is the primary measure used by us to analyze our financial leverage and capital structure, and is one of the key indicators, together with Net Debt, we use to measure our financial position. These measures are presented by management to aid 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 funded portion of the self-liquidating financial receivables portfolio, which is the portion of our receivables from financing activities that we fund with external debt or intercompany loans. The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Net Debt and Net Industrial Debt at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

	At December 31,
	2018		2017
	(€ million)
Cash and cash equivalents	794		648
Total liquidity	794		648
Bonds	(1,198	)	(1,194	)
Securitizations	(683	)	(556	)
Borrowings from banks	(36	)	(38	)
Other debt	(10	)	(18	)
Total debt	(1,927	)	(1,806	)
Net Debt	(1,133	)	(1,158	)
Funded portion of the self-liquidating financial receivables portfolio	793		685
Net Industrial Debt	(340	)	(473	)

For further details on total debt, see Note 25 “Debt” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document.

81

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents were €794 million at December 31, 2018 compared to €648 million at December 31, 2017. See “Cash Flows” above for further details.

Approximately 78 percent of our cash and cash equivalents were denominated in Euro at December 31, 2018 (approximately 67 percent at December 31, 2017). 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, which amounted to €78 million at December 31, 2018 (€66 million at December 31, 2017), is subject to certain repatriation restrictions and may only be repatriated as dividends. We do not currently believe that such transfer restrictions have an adverse impact on our ability to meet our liquidity requirements.

Cash collected from the settlement of receivables or lines of credit pledged as collateral is subject to certain restrictions regarding its use and is principally applied to repay principal and interest of the related funding. Such cash amounted to €26.5 million and €28.2 million at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The following table sets forth an analysis of the currencies in which our cash and cash equivalents were denominated at the dates presented:

	At December 31,
	2018	2017
	(€ million)
Euro	616	435
Chinese Yuan	73	62
U.S. Dollar	50	88
Japanese Yen	24	26
Other currencies	31	37
Total	794	648

Total Available Liquidity

Our total available liquidity (defined as cash and cash equivalents plus undrawn committed credit lines) at December 31, 2018 was €1,294 million (€1,148 million at December 31, 2017).

The following table summarizes our total available liquidity:

	At December 31,
	2018	2017
	(€ million)
Cash and cash equivalents	794	648
Undrawn committed credit lines	500	500
Total available liquidity	1,294	1,148

The undrawn committed credit lines relate to a revolving credit facility. For further details see Note 25 “Debt” to the 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

82

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 cash flows used in investing activities. Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities is defined as Free Cash Flow adjusted for the change in the self-liquidating financial receivables portfolio, which is the change in our receivables from financing activities. The following table sets forth our Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

	For the years ended December 31,
	2018		2017		2016
	(€ million)
Cash flows from operating activities	934		663		1,005
Cash flows used in investing activities	(637	)	(379	)	(320	)
Free Cash Flow	297		284		685
Change in the self-liquidating financial receivables portfolio	107		44		(405	)
Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities	404		328		280

Free Cash Flow for the year ended December 31, 2018 was €297 million compared to €284 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 and €685 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. For an explanation of the drivers in Free Cash Flow see “Cash Flows” above.

Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities for the year ended December 31, 2018 was €404 million, an increase of €76 million compared to €328 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in EBITDA, a decrease in tax payments due to the Patent Box benefit and the positive impact from changes in working capital, partially offset by an increase in capital expenditures.

Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities for the year ended December 31, 2017 was €328 million compared to €280 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in EBITDA and a decrease in tax payments (primarily due to the fact that in 2016 we made payments to settle the 2015 tax balance from the FCA Group tax consolidation) partially offset by an increase in capital expenditures, advances no longer being received for the LaFerrari Aperta and cash absorbed from an increase in net working capital.

(4) Unconditional minimum purchase obligations relate to our unconditional purchase obligations to purchase a fixed or minimum quantity of goods and/or services from suppliers with fixed and determinable price provisions. From time to time, in the ordinary course of our business, we enter into various arrangements with key suppliers in order to establish strategic and technological advantages. In particular, such agreements primarily relate to the purchase of research and development services and to a lesser extent, tooling obligations. This amount also includes unconditional purchase obligations to purchase a minimum quantity of goods and/or services in connection with certain of our sponsorship contracts.

(5) Purchase obligations represent obligations to purchase property, plant and equipment.

The long-term debt obligations reflected in the table above can be reconciled to the amount in the statement of financial position at December 31, 2018 as follows:

	Amount
	(€ million)
Debt	1,927
Short-term debt obligations	(49	)
Amortized cost effects	9
Long-term debt	1,887

Pension, post-employment benefits and other provisions for employees

We provide post-employment benefits for certain of our active employees and retirees. We classify these benefits on the basis of the type of benefit provided and in particular as defined contribution plans, defined benefit obligations and other provisions for employees. At December 31, 2018 the liability for such obligations amounted to €87 million (€84 million at December 31, 2017). See Note 23 “Employee benefits” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document.

92

2018 Remuneration of Executive Directors and SMT Members

The Board of Directors determines the compensation for our executive directors following the recommendation of the Compensation Committee and with reference to the remuneration policy. The compensation structure for executive directors and SMT members includes a fixed component and a variable component based on short and long-term performance. We believe that this compensation structure promotes the interests of Ferrari in the short and the long-term and is designed to encourage the executive directors and SMT members to act in the best interests of Ferrari. In determining the level and structure of the compensation of the executive directors, the non-executive directors will take into account, among other things, Ferrari’s financial and operational results and other business objectives. We establish target compensation levels using a market-based approach and we periodically benchmark our executive compensation program against peer companies and competitors, as well as monitor compensation levels and trends in the market.

On the basis of the remuneration policy objectives, compensation of executive directors and SMT members consists, inter alia, of the following elements discussed below. Only the long-term incentives element of variable compensation was applicable to Executive Directors in 2018.

Fixed component

The primary objective of the base salary (the fixed part of the annual cash compensation) for executive directors and SMT members is to attract and retain highly qualified senior executives. Our policy is to periodically benchmark comparable salaries paid to executives with similar experience by comparable companies.

Variable components

Executive directors and SMT members are also eligible to receive variable compensation subject to the achievement of pre-established financial and other identified performance targets. The short and long-term components of executive directors’ and SMT members’ variable remuneration are linked to predetermined, assessable targets in order to create long-term value for the shareholders.

Short-term incentives

The primary objective of our performance-based short-term variable cash-based incentives is to incentivize the executive directors and SMT members to focus on the business priorities for the current or next year. The 2018 short-term incentive plan was designed to motivate its beneficiaries to achieve challenging targets, by recognizing individual contributions to the Group’s results on an annual basis. The variable remuneration is linked to the achievement of short-term (i.e. annual) financial and other identified objectives.

To determine the executive directors’ annual performance bonus, the non-executive directors, upon proposal of the Compensation Committee:

• approves the executive directors’ targets and maximum allowable bonuses;

• selects the appropriate metrics and their weighting;

• sets the stretch objectives;

• considers any unusual items in a performance year to determine the appropriate measurement of achievement; and

• approves the final bonus determination.

In addition, upon proposal of the Compensation Committee, the non-executive directors have authority to grant special bonuses for specific transactions that are deemed exceptional in terms of strategic importance and effect on Ferrari’s results. The form of any such bonus (cash, common shares of Ferrari or options to purchase common shares) is determined by the non-executive directors from time to time.

93

Long-term incentives

We believe that the equity incentive plan discussed below increases the alignment between the Company’s performance and shareholder interests, by linking the compensation opportunity of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company to increasing shareholder value.    

Equity Incentive Plan 2016-2020

Following the approval of the equity incentive plan 2016-2020 by the Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, in March 2017, the Shareholders approved in April 2017 an award of 450 thousand performance share units (“PSUs”) to the former Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Marchionne under the Company’s equity incentive plan. In September 2018, Mr. Camilleri was appointed as Executive Director and the new Chief Executive Officer of Ferrari, becoming eligible (subject to the Shareholders’ approval at the next Annual General Meeting, which is currently expected to be held on April 12, 2019) for the current long-term incentive plan, which is comprised of a performance-based component represented by PSUs, equal to two thirds of the total share units granted, and a service-based component represented by restricted share units (“RSUs”) covering the remaining one third of share units granted. The original grant of PSUs to Mr. Marchionne, which each represent the right to receive one common share of the Company, cover a five-year performance period from 2016 to 2020. Mr. Camilleri has been granted approximately 11 thousand PSUs and approximately 6 thousand RSUs equal to a pro-rata amount (starting from the date of appointment as CEO) of the above-mentioned plan and covering a three-year performance period from 2016 to 2018 (subject to the Shareholders’ approval at the next Annual General Meeting of Shareholders).

Subject to the achievement of a market performance condition related to Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”), the original PSUs granted to Mr. Marchionne vest in three equal tranches in 2019, 2020 and 2021, while the PSUs granted to Mr. Camilleri vest in 2019. The interim partial vesting periods are independent of one another and any under-achievement in one period can be offset by over-achievement in subsequent periods. The target amount of PSUs vest as follows based on the Company’s TSR ranking compared to an industry specific peer group of eight companies, including the Company, (“Peer Group”):

Ferrari TSR Ranking	% of Target Awards that Vest
1	150%
2	120%
3	100%
4	75%
5	50%
>5	0%

The defined Peer Group is as follows:

Ferrari	Brunello Cucinelli	Burberry	Ferragamo
Hermes	LVMH	Moncler	Richemont

The performance period for the PSUs commenced on January 1, 2016. The fair value of the awards used for accounting purposes was measured at the grant date using a Monte Carlo Simulation model. The range of the fair value of the PSUs that were granted to Mr. Marchionne in 2017 is €68.18 to €72.06 per share and the range of the provisional fair value of the PSUs that were granted to Mr. Camilleri in 2018 is €80.32 to €111.92.

The key assumptions utilized to calculate the grant-date fair values for these awards are summarized below:

Key Assumptions	PSU Awards Granted to Mr. Marchionne in 2017	PSU Awards Granted to Mr. Camilleri in 2018
Grant date share price	€66.85	€113.70
Expected volatility	17.4%	16.7%
Dividend yield	1.2%	0.9%
Risk-free rate	0%	0%

94

The expected volatility was based on the observed volatility of the Peer Group. The risk-free rate was based on the iBoxx sovereign Eurozone yield.

The RSUs granted to Mr. Camilleri will vest in 2019, subject to continued employment with the Company. The range of the provisional fair value of the RSUs granted is €110.76 to €112.99.

New Equity Incentive Plan 2019-2021

On February 26, 2019, the Board of Directors approved a new equity incentive plan. This new plan is consistent with the Company’s business plan presented at Capital Markets Day in September 2018. Under the new equity incentive plan 2019-2021, a combination of PSUs and RSUs, which each represent the right to receive one Ferrari common share, will be awarded to the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (subject to the Shareholders’ approval at the next Annual General Meeting, which is currently expected to be held on April 12, 2019), as well as to members of the SMT and other key members of the Group.

Other benefits

Executive directors may also be entitled to customary fringe benefits such as personal use of aircraft, company cars and drivers, personal/home security, medical insurance, accident insurance, tax preparation and financial counseling. The Compensation Committee may grant other benefits to the executive directors in particular circumstances.

CEO severance

We offer customary perquisites to our CEO. If the Company terminates his services for reasons other than for cause (as defined) or if he terminates his services for good reason (as defined), the Company will pay the CEO an amount equal to his annual base salary, in the amount received for the last fiscal year prior to termination of his services (the “Severance”). If within twenty-four months following a change of control (as defined), the CEO’s services are terminated by the Company (other than for cause), or are terminated by the CEO for good reason, the CEO is entitled to receive the Severance and accelerated vesting of awards under his long-term incentive plan.

Internal pay ratios

In line with the Dutch Corporate Governance Code, internal pay ratio is an important input for determining the Remuneration Policy for the Board of Directors. The ratio between the CEO’s annual fixed remuneration and the average fixed remuneration for an employee was 16 to 1 for the 2018 financial year.

The methodology applied to calculate the above ratio only takes the fixed remuneration component and not the variable components of compensation for two reasons. First, the overall compensation package (including fixed and variable components) depends on the results achieved. Therefore, poor performance would imply low or null variable remuneration, thereby reducing the CEO’s pay ratio, with less efficient performance resulting in a lower ratio, which may wrongly signal a virtuous development. Secondly, we exclude variable compensation to ensure comparability of the ratio over time, and avoid the ratio being skewed in different periods by the vesting features of the plan. The development of this ratio will be monitored and disclosed going forward.

Recoupment of incentive compensation (claw back policy)

The long-term incentive plans include a claw back clause, which allows the Company to claim the refund of part or all of the variable component of remuneration awarded or paid on the basis of information or data that subsequently prove manifestly incorrect, if the Board of Directors determines that circumstances that would have constituted “cause” (as defined) existed while the remuneration remained unvested or due to the beneficiaries’ fraud or negligence (each, a “Recovery Event”).

In particular, if a Recovery Event occurs within 2 years after the payment of cash or delivery of any shares in respect of the PSUs or RSUs, a participant will be required to repay the net amount received, as determined by the Board of Directors in its discretion.

Stock ownership

In 2018 the Board of Directors determined stock ownership guidelines applicable to Ferrari’s directors and certain employees, recognizing the critical role that stock ownership has in aligning the interests, in particular, of Ferrari’s Chief Executive Officer, SMT members and senior leaders and key employees with those of the shareholders. As of the end of the 2018 financial year, covered employees should own Ferrari common shares in the following minimum amounts (as multiple of net base salary):

Incumbent	Share Ownership Guideline
Chief Executive Officer	6 times net base salary
Other SMT Members	2 times net base salary
Other senior leaders and key employees	1 times net base salary

The above listed covered employees are required to achieve the applicable ownership threshold within 5 years, through acquisitions of Ferrari common shares as a result of the vesting of PSUs or RSUs until the required ownership level has been met, excluding any shares sold to pay taxes in connection with the granting of those shares.

Scenario analysis

On an annual basis, the non-executive directors, upon proposal of the Compensation Committee, examined the relationship between the performance criteria chosen and the possible outcomes for the variable remuneration of our CEO (scenario analysis). To date, the non-executive directors believe the remuneration policy has proven effective in terms of establishing a correlation between Ferrari’s strategic goals and the chosen performance criteria, as the main key performance criteria of our CEO’s long-term incentive plan (i.e. the Total Shareholder Return), which represents a significant part of the CEO compensation package, supports both Ferrari’s business strategy and value creation for our shareholders.

Remuneration policy for Non-Executive Directors

Remuneration of non-executive directors is approved by the Company’s shareholders and periodically reviewed by the Compensation Committee.

Remuneration of non-executive directors is fixed and not dependent on the Company’s financial results. Non-executive directors are not eligible for variable compensation and do not participate in any incentive plans.

The current annual remuneration for the non-executive directors (which was approved at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders’ of the Company, held on April 13, 2018) is:

• $75,000 for each non-executive director.

• An additional $10,000 for each member of the Audit Committee and $20,000 for the Audit Committee Chairman.

• An additional $5,000 for each member of the Compensation Committee and the Governance and Sustainability Committee, and $15,000 for the Compensation Committee Chairman and the Governance and Sustainability Committee Chairman.

• An additional $25,000 for the senior non-executive director.

All remuneration of the non-executive directors is paid in cash.

For information on Mr. Marchionne’s awards under the Ferrari long-term incentive plan, see “—Share-Based Compensation of Executive Directors” below.

Share-Based Compensation of Executive Directors

The following table gives an overview of the awards granted to the Chief Executive Officer in 2018 under the equity incentive plan.

Name	Grant Date	Vesting Date	Fair Value on Grant Date	Awards Granted	Awards Vested
Louis C. Camilleri	September 12, 2018	2019	€80.32 - €112.99	17,108	—

The above awards relate to approximately 11 thousand PSUs and approximately 6 thousand RSUs awarded to the CEO (subject to the Shareholders’ approval at the next Annual General Meeting, which is currently expected to be held on April 12, 2019) under the equity incentive plan, which are equal to a pro-rata amount of the plan originally approved by the Shareholders on April 14, 2017 . The PSU awards vest in 2019, subject to the achievement of a market performance condition related to Total Shareholder Return. The RSU awards vest ratably in 2019, subject to the beneficiary being continuously and actively employed by the Company. At December 31, 2018 none of the PSU or RSU awards had vested.

The former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mr. Marchionne, was the beneficiary of PSU awards under the Company’s equity incentive plan. Under the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreement, such PSUs remain outstanding following Mr. Marchionne’s death in July 2018 for the benefit of his heirs, and are eligible to be earned based on the actual performance of the Company and in accordance with the other terms and conditions of the award agreement. The table here below provides an overview of the above mentioned share plan:

97

Name	Grant Date	Vesting Date	Fair Value on Grant Date	Awards Granted	Awards Vested
Sergio Marchionne	April 14, 2017	2019 / 2020 / 2021	€68.18 - €72.06	450,000	—

The total cost recognized in 2018 for share-based compensation of Executive Directors amounted to approximately €16.0 million, of which €1.1 million related to Mr. Camilleri and €14.9 million related to Mr. Marchionne (including an acceleration of the costs relating to the grants made to the former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer under the equity incentive plan).

Compensation of the members of the SMT

The compensation paid to or accrued during the year ended December 31, 2018 by Ferrari and its subsidiaries to the members of the SMT (excluding the CEO) amounted to €16.7 million in aggregate, including €3.8 million for short-term incentives and €2.8 million for share-based compensation in relation to PSUs and RSUs granted under the equity incentive plan for the performance period covering 2016, 2017 and 2018. The PSU and RSU awards vest in three equal tranches in 2019, 2020 and 2021, subject to continued employment and, for the PSU awards, the achievement of a market performance condition related to Total Shareholder Return, according to the following scheme:

Ferrari TSR Ranking	% of Target Awards that Vest
1	150%
2	120%
3	100%

At December 31, 2018 none of the PSU or RSU awards had vested.

Director and Officer Overlaps

There are overlaps among the directors and officers of FCA and our directors and officers. These individuals owe duties both to us and to the other companies that they serve as officers and/or directors. This may raise certain conflicts of interest as, for example, these individuals review opportunities that may be appropriate or suitable for both Ferrari and such other companies, or business transactions are pursued in which both Ferrari and such other companies have an interest, such as Ferrari’s arrangement to supply engines for Maserati cars. For example, Mr. John Elkann our Chairman, is also the Chairman of FCA and the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Exor. At February 15, 2019, Exor held approximately 23.7 percent of our outstanding common shares and approximately 33.6 percent of the voting power in the Company, while it holds approximately 29.0 percent of the outstanding common shares and 42.1 percent of the voting power in FCA, based on SEC filings. See “Item 3.D.—Risk Factors—Risks related to our Common Shares—We may have potential conflicts of interest with FCA and Exor and its related companies.”

D. Employees

Human capital is a crucial factor in our success, building on our position as a global leader in the luxury performance car sector and creating long-term, sustainable value. To recognize excellence, encourage professional development and create equal opportunities, we adopt a number of initiatives, such as our Graduates Project, aimed at identifying and recruiting graduates from the world’s best universities; our appraisal system to assess our manager, professional and white collar employees, through performance management metrics; our talent management and succession planning; training and skill-building initiatives; employee satisfaction and engagement surveys, including our so-called “Pit Stop” and “Pole Position” programs; and flexible work arrangements, commuting programs and a dedicated welfare program, Formula Uomo, which includes, among other programs, Formula BenessereProgram (offering medical assistance to employees and their families) and Formula Estate Junior (offering Summer Campus to the children of employees).

At December 31, 2018, we had a total of 3,851 employees, including 110 executives. Of these, approximately 3,647 were based at our Maranello facility, and approximately 204 in offices around the world (including 8 executives), mostly in North America and China.

	At December 31,
	2018	2017	2016
White collar employees	1,691	1,531	1,407
Italy	1,517	1,358	1,216
Rest of the world	174	173	191
Blue collar employees	2,050	1,757	1,751
Italy	2,047	1,754	1,748
Rest of the world	3	3	3
Executives	110	92	90
Total	3,851	3,380	3,248

Approximately 12 percent of the employees were trade union members in 2018. Our employees’ principal trade unions are Federazione Italiana Metalmeccanici (FIM-CISL), Federazione Italiana Sindacati Metalmeccanici e Industrie Collegate (FISMIC), Unione Italiana Lavoratori Metalmeccanici (UILM-UIL) and Federazione Impiegati Operai Metallurgici (FIOM-CGIL).

All of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Our managers are represented by the Italian trade union, Federmanager, and are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. Our other employees are covered by the collective bargaining agreement entered into by FCA and FIM-CISL, UILM-IUL, FISMIC, UGL and Associazione Quadri e Capi FIAT, which expired on December 31, 2018, and by a Ferrari Enterprise Bargaining Agreement signed on June 22, 2016 by Ferrari and FIM, UILM and FISMIC, which will expire on December 31, 2019. This collective bargaining contract provides, among other things, for the payment of bonuses linked to performance up to a maximum of approximately €5,720 gross per year payable in three installments.

In addition to the collective agreements, we have individually negotiated agreements with several of our managers and other key employees providing for long-term incentives, exclusivity and non-compete provisions.

Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions

A. Major Shareholders

Exor is the largest shareholder of Ferrari through its approximately 23.7 percent shareholding interest in our outstanding common shares (as of February 15, 2019). See “Item 4.A. History and Development of the Company.” As a result of the loyalty voting mechanism, Exor’s voting power is approximately 33.6 percent (as of February 15, 2019). In addition, as of February 15, 2019, Mr. Piero Ferrari holds approximately 10.1 percent of our outstanding common shares and, as a result of the loyalty voting mechanism, his voting power is approximately 15.5 percent.

Exor and Mr. Piero Ferrari informed us that they have entered into a shareholder agreement, summarized below under “—Shareholders’ Agreement”.

Exor resulted from a cross-border merger of its predecessor entity, Exor S.p.A. with and into Exor N.V. As a result of that merger, which was completed on December 11, 2016, all activities of Exor S.p.A. are continued by Exor under universal succession, including with respect to the holding of our shares. Exor is controlled by Giovanni Agnelli B.V. (“G.A.”), which holds 52.99 percent of its share capital, based on regulatory filings with the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets (stichting Autoriteit Financiële Markten, the “AFM”). G.A. is a Dutch private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid)with interests represented by shares, founded by Giovanni Agnelli and currently held by members of the Agnelli and Nasi families, descendants of Giovanni Agnelli, founder of Fiat. Its present principal business activity is to purchase, administer and dispose of equity interests in public and private entities and, in particular, to ensure the cohesion and continuity of the administration of its controlling equity interests. The managing directors of G.A., as of February 20, 2019, were John Elkann, Jeroen Preller, Florence Hinnen, Tiberto Brandolini d’Adda, Alessandro Nasi, Andrea Agnelli, Luca Ferrero de’ Gubernatis Ventimiglia and Eduardo Teodorani-Fabbri.

101

Based on the information in Ferrari’s shareholder register, regulatory filings with the AFM and the SEC and other sources available to us, the following shareholders owned, directly or indirectly, in excess of three percent of the common shares holding voting rights of Ferrari, as of February 15, 2019:

Shareholder	Number of common shares	Percentage owned (1)
Exor N.V. (2)	44,435,280	23.7	%
Piero Ferrari (2)	18,894,295	10.1	%
BlackRock, Inc.(3)	9,877,693	5.3	%
T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc.(4)	6,762,433	3.6	%
Other public shareholders	107,658,623	57.3	%

(1) The percentages of share capital set out in this table are calculated as the ratio of (i) the aggregate number of outstanding common shares beneficially owned by the shareholder to (ii) the total number of outstanding common shares (net of treasury shares) of Ferrari. These percentages may slightly differ from the percentages of share capital included in the public register held by the AFM of all notifications made pursuant to the disclosure obligations under chapter 5.3 of the Dutch Act on financial supervision (Wet op het financieel toezicht; the “AFS”), inter alia, because any shares held in treasury by Ferrari are included in the relevant denominators for purposes of the AFS disclosure obligations.

(2) Each of Exor and Piero Ferrari participate in the loyalty voting program of Ferrari and therefore, as discussed above in this section, their voting power in Ferrari is higher than the percentage of common shares beneficially held as presented in this table.

(3) Based on filings with the SEC, BlackRock, Inc. is a parent holding company or control person in accordance with Rule 13d-1(b)(1)(ii)(G) and, out of the common shares beneficially owned as set forth in the table, it has sole voting power over 8,933,118 common shares.

(4) Based on filings with the SEC, T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. is an investment adviser registered under Section 203 of the U.S. Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and, out of the common shares beneficially owned as set forth in the table, it has sole voting power over 2,832,321 common shares.

Based on the information in Ferrari’s shareholder register and other sources available to us, as of February 15, 2019, approximately 44.5 million Ferrari common shares, or 23.7 percent of the outstanding Ferrari common shares, were held in the United States. As of the same date, approximately 1,700 record holders had registered addresses in the United States.

Shareholders’ Agreement

On December 23, 2015, Exor and Piero Ferrari entered into a Shareholders’ Agreement, which became effective at the completion of the Separation on January 3, 2016 (the “Shareholders’ Agreement”) and prior to the admission to listing and trading of the common shares of Ferrari on the MTA. Ferrari is not a party to the Shareholders’ Agreement and does not have any rights or obligations thereunder. Below is a summary of the principal provisions of the Shareholders’ Agreement based on regulatory filings made by Exor and Piero Ferrari.

Consultation

For the purposes of forming and exercising, to the extent possible, a common view on the items on the agenda of any General Meeting of shareholders of Ferrari, Exor and Piero Ferrari will consult with each other prior to each General Meeting. For the purposes of this consultation right and duties, representatives of each of Exor and Piero Ferrari shall meet in order to discuss in good faith whether they have or can find a common view as to the matters on the agenda of the immediately following General Meeting. This consultation right does not include an obligation to vote in any certain way nor does it constitute a veto right in favor of Piero Ferrari.

Pre-emption right in favor of Exor and right of first offer of Piero Ferrari

In the event that Piero Ferrari intends to transfer (in whole or in part) his Ferrari common shares or receives a third party offer for the acquisition of all or part of his Ferrari common shares, Exor will have the right to purchase all (but not less than all) of the common shares Piero Ferrari intends to transfer on the terms of the original proposed transfer by Piero Ferrari or, in case the original proposed transfer was for no consideration, at market prices determined pursuant to the Shareholders’ Agreement.

In the event Exor intends to transfer (in whole or in part) its common shares to a third party, either solicited or unsolicited, Piero Ferrari will have the right to make a binding, unconditional and irrevocable all cash offer for the purchase of such common shares.

The foregoing will not apply in the case of transfers of Ferrari common shares: (i) by any party to the Shareholders’ Agreement, to a party that qualifies as a “Loyalty Transferee” (as defined in the Ferrari Articles of Association) of such party, (ii) by Exor, to any affiliate of G.A., to a successor in business of G.A. and to any affiliate of a successor in business of G.A., and (iii) by any party to the Shareholders’ Agreement that is an individual, to an entity wholly owned and controlled by that

102

same party. In addition, the provisions regarding the pre-emption right in favor of Exor and right of first offer of Piero Ferrari shall not apply in relation to, and Piero Ferrari shall be free and allowed to carry out, market sales to third parties of his Ferrari common shares which in the aggregate do not exceed, during the whole period of validity of the Shareholders’Agreement, 0.5 percent of the number of common shares owned by Piero Ferrari upon completion of the Separation.

Term

The Shareholders’ Agreement entered into force upon completion of the Separation on January 3, 2016 and shall remain in force until the fifth anniversary of the effective date of the Separation, provided that if neither of the parties to the Shareholders’ Agreement terminates the Shareholders’ Agreement within six months before the end of the initial term, then the Shareholders’ Agreement shall be renewed automatically for another five year term.

The Shareholders’ Agreement shall terminate and cease to have any effect as a result of the transfer of all the common shares owned by either Exor or Piero Ferrari to a third party.

Governing law and jurisdiction

The Shareholders’ Agreement is governed by and must be interpreted according to the laws of the Netherlands. Any disputes arising out of or in connection with the Shareholders’ Agreement are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent court in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, without prejudice to the right of appeal and appeal to the Supreme Court.

Legal proceedings, claims and governmental investigations are pending against us on a wide range of topics, including car safety; emissions and fuel economy, early warning reporting; dealer, supplier and other contractual relationships; intellectual property rights and product warranty matters. Some of these proceedings allege defects in specific component parts or systems (including airbags, seat belts, brakes, transmissions, engines and fuel systems) in various car models or allege general design defects relating to car handling and stability, sudden unintended movement or crashworthiness. These proceedings seek recovery for damage to property, personal injuries or wrongful death and in some cases could include a claim for exemplary or punitive damages. Adverse decisions in one or more of these proceedings could require us to pay substantial damages, or undertake service actions, recall campaigns or other costly actions. For information regarding provisions made for legal proceedings, refer to Note 24 of our Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document.

Dividend Policy

Subject to the approval by the Shareholders at the 2019 Annual General Meeting, the Company intends to make a dividend distribution to the holders of common shares of Euro 1.03 per common share, corresponding to a total dividend distribution to shareholders of approximately Euro 194 million.

104

We intend to return capital to holders of common shares over time through a sustainable dividend policy designed to provide adequate returns to shareholders, while supporting growth and protecting our creditworthiness in order to facilitate access to external funding. We intend to pay 30 percent of our annual net profit by way of dividend in the coming years; however, the actual level of dividends will be subject to our earnings, cash balances, commitments, strategic plans and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant at the time of the dividend, including adjustments for income or costs that are significant in nature but expected to occur infrequently. For additional information on distribution of profits, refer to “Item 10B. Memorandum and Articles of Association”. Our dividend policy is subject to change in the future based on changes in statutory requirements, market trends, strategic developments, capital requirements and a number of other factors.

All issued and outstanding common shares will rank equally and will be eligible for any profit or other payment that may be declared on the common shares. Pursuant to our Articles of Association, holders of special voting shares are entitled to a minimum dividend, which is allocated to the special dividend reserve. A distribution from the special dividend reserve or the (partial) release of the special dividend reserve will require a prior proposal from the Board of Directors and a subsequent resolution of the meeting of holders of special voting shares. Ferrari does not intend to propose any distribution from the special dividend reserve.

For additional information on distribution of profits, refer to “Item 10.B. Memorandum and Articles of Association.”

In addition, we have announced the intention to carry out a share repurchase program. For additional information please refer to “Item 16.E. Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers”.

The Ferrari Shares, Articles Of Association And Terms And Conditions Of The Special Voting Shares

Ferrari was incorporated as a public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap) under the laws of the Netherlands on September 4, 2015 under the name FE New N.V., in contemplation of the Merger, and was renamed Ferrari N.V. effective as of January 3, 2016, upon effectiveness of the Merger. Its official seat (statutaire zetel) is in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and its corporate address and principal place of business is located at Via Abetone Inferiore n. 4, I-41053 Maranello (MO), Italy. Ferrari is registered with the Trade Register of the Chamber of Commerce under number 64060977. Its telephone number is +39-0536-949111. The Company’s object, set forth in Article 3.1 of the Articles of Association, is to carry on, either directly or through wholly or partially-owned companies and entities, activities relating in whole or in any part to passenger and commercial vehicles, transport, mechanical engineering, energy, engines, capital machinery and equipment and related goods and propulsion, as well as any other manufacturing, commercial, financial or service activity.

Since incorporation Ferrari has had, and it intends to continue to have, its place of effective management in Italy. It will therefore be a tax resident of Italy under both Italian tax law and Article 4 of the Convention between the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the Republic of Italy for the avoidance of a double taxation with respect to taxes on income and on capital of 1980.

106

Following is a summary of material information relating to the Ferrari common shares, including summaries of certain provisions of the Ferrari’s articles of association (the “Ferrari Articles of Association”), the terms and conditions in respect of the Ferrari special voting shares (the “Terms and Conditions”) and the applicable Dutch law provisions in effect at the date of this annual report. The summaries of the Ferrari Articles of Association and the Terms and Conditions as set forth in this annual report are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Ferrari Articles of Association, and Terms and Conditions.

Share Capital

The authorized share capital of Ferrari is seven million five hundred thousand Euro (€7,500,000), divided into three hundred seventy five million (375,000,000) Ferrari common shares, nominal value of one Euro cent (€0.01) per share and an equal number of special voting shares, nominal value of one Euro cent (€0.01) per share.

Upon incorporation on September 4, 2015, Ferrari’s issued share capital was €50,000, fully paid and divided into 5,000,000 common shares having a nominal value of €0.001 each.  In connection with the Merger, Ferrari issued 188,923,499 common shares and 56,497,618 special voting shares, and the 5,000,000 common shares previously outstanding were retired and held in treasury. In 2017, 30,375 shares of such treasury shares have been transferred to non-executive directors who elected to receive part of their compensation in the form of common shares in accordance with our former remuneration policy.

On February 9, 2018, Ferrari launched a share repurchase program for the repurchase of up to Euro 100 million in common shares. Such share repurchase was completed on November 27, 2018. As of December 31, 2018, Ferrari’s common shares held in treasury amounted to 6,002,843. As of the same date, the Company held in treasury 2.40 percent of its total issued share capital including the common shares and the special voting shares. For additional information on the above-mentioned share repurchase program, refer to “Item 16.E. Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers”. In addition, we have announced the intention to carry out a new share repurchase program. For additional information please refer to “Item 16.E. Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers”.

On February 26, 2019 the Board of Directors approved the issuance of 6,855,396 special voting shares with a nominal value of one Euro cent (€0.01) per share to be assigned to existing shareholders entitled to receive such special voting shares under the terms of the loyalty voting program.

A delegation of authority to the Board of Directors to authorize the issuance of common shares without pre-emptive rights enables Ferrari to offer and sell newly issued common shares to investors free of pre-emptive rights for a period of five years from January 2, 2016. Under Dutch law, such authorization may not exceed a period of five years, but may be renewed by a resolution of the general meeting of shareholders for subsequent five-year periods at any time.

Ferrari common shares are registered shares represented by an entry in the share register of Ferrari. The Board of Directors may determine that, for the purpose of trading and transfer of shares on a foreign stock exchange, such share certificates shall be issued in such form as shall comply with the requirements of such foreign stock exchange. A register of shareholders is maintained by Ferrari in the Netherlands and a branch register is maintained in the United States on Ferrari’s behalf by the Transfer Agent, which serves as branch registrar and transfer agent.

Beneficial interests in Ferrari common shares that are traded on the NYSE are held through the book-entry system provided by The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) and are registered in Ferrari’s register of shareholders in the name of Cede & Co., as DTC’s nominee. Beneficial interests in the Ferrari common shares traded on the MTA are held through Monte Titoli S.p.A., the Italian central clearing and settlement system, as a participant in DTC.

Directors

Set forth below is a summary description of the material provisions of the Ferrari Articles of Association, relating to our directors. The summary does not restate the Ferrari Articles of Association in their entirety.

Ferrari’s directors serve on the Board of Directors for a term of approximately one year, such term ending on the day that the first annual general meeting of the shareholders is held in the following calendar year. Ferrari’s shareholders appoint the directors of the Board of Directors at a general meeting. Each director may be reappointed at any subsequent general meeting of shareholders. The general meeting of shareholders determines whether a director is an executive director or a non-executive director.

107

The Board of Directors is a one tier board and consists of three or more members, comprising both members having responsibility for the day-to-day management of Ferrari (executive directors) and members not having such day-to-day responsibility (non-executive directors). The tasks of the executive and non-executive directors in a one-tier board such as Ferrari’s Board of Directors may be allocated under or pursuant to the Ferrari Articles of Association, provided that the general meeting has stipulated whether each such director is appointed as executive or as non-executive director and furthermore provided that the task to supervise the performance by the directors of their duties can only be performed by the non-executive directors. In addition, an executive director may not be appointed chairman of the board or delegated the task of establishing the remuneration of executive directors or nominating directors for appointment. Tasks that are not allocated fall within the power of the Board of Directors as a whole. Regardless of an allocation of tasks, all directors remain collectively responsible for the proper management and strategy of Ferrari (including supervision thereof in case of non-executive directors). The Board of Directors may determine that one or more directors can lawfully adopt board resolutions concerning matters belonging to his or their duties.

Ferrari has a policy in respect of the remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors. With due observation of the remuneration policy, the Board of Directors may determine the remuneration for the directors in respect of the performance of their duties. The Board of Directors must submit to the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders for its approval plans to award shares or the right to subscribe for shares. The policy was partially amended as approved by the Annual General Meeting of shareholders held on April 14, 2017 by introducing the principle that non-executive directors are paid in cash only and by introducing certain facilitations for the directors in the purchase or use of Company products. In addition the amended policy will provide for the Board of Directors to issue stock ownership guidelines applicable to directors and employees.

Ferrari shall not grant the directors any personal loans or guarantees.

Loyalty Voting Program

In connection with the Separation, Ferrari issued special voting shares with a nominal value of one Euro cent (€0.01) per share, to FCA, Piero Ferrari and FCA shareholders holding FCA special voting shares prior to the Separation including Exor, in addition to Ferrari common shares.

As of February 15, 2019, Exor held approximately 33.6 percent of the voting power in the Company, Piero Ferrari held approximately 15.5 percent of the voting power in Ferrari and public shareholders held approximately 50.9 percent of the voting power in the Company. For more information on the Separation, see “Item 4.A. History and Development of the Company.”.

Subject to meeting certain conditions, our common shares can be registered in our loyalty register (the “Loyalty Register”) and all such common shares may qualify as qualifying common shares (“Qualifying Common Shares”). The holder of Qualifying Common Shares is entitled to receive without consideration one special voting share in respect of each such Qualifying Common Share. Pursuant to the Terms and Conditions, and for so long as the Ferrari common shares remain in the Loyalty Register, such Ferrari common shares shall not be sold, disposed of, transferred, except in very limited circumstances (i.e., transfers to affiliates or to relatives through succession, donation or other transfers (defined in the Terms and Conditions as “Loyalty Transferee”), but a shareholder may create or permit to exist any pledge, lien, fixed or floating charge or other encumbrance over such Ferrari common shares, provided that the voting rights in respect of such Ferrari common shares and any corresponding special voting shares remain with such shareholder at all times. Ferrari’s shareholders who want to directly or indirectly sell, dispose of, trade or transfer such Ferrari common shares or otherwise grant any right or interest therein, or create or permit to exist any pledge, lien, fixed or floating charge or other encumbrance over such Ferrari common shares with a potential transfer of voting rights relating to such encumbrances will need to submit a de-registration request as referred to in the Terms and Conditions, in order to transfer the relevant Ferrari common shares to the regular trading system (the “Regular Trading System”) except that a Ferrari shareholder may transfer Ferrari common shares included in the Loyalty Register to a Loyalty Transferee (as defined in the Terms and Conditions) of such Ferrari shareholder without transferring such shares from the Loyalty Register to the Regular Trading System.

Ferrari’s shareholders who seek to qualify to receive special voting shares can also request to have their Ferrari common shares registered in the Loyalty Register. Upon registration in the Loyalty Register such shares will be eligible to be treated as Qualifying Common Shares, provided they meet the conditions more fully described under “—Terms and Conditions of the Special Voting Shares” below.

Notwithstanding the fact that Article 13 of the Ferrari Articles of Association permits the Board of Directors of Ferrari to approve transfers of special voting shares, the special voting shares cannot be traded and are transferable only in very limited circumstances (i.e., to a Loyalty Transferee described above, or to Ferrari for no consideration (om niet)).

108

Pursuant to Article 23 of the Ferrari Articles of Association, Ferrari shall maintain a special capital reserve to be credited against the share premium exclusively for the purpose of facilitating any issuance or cancellation of special voting shares. The special voting shares shall be issued and paid up against this special capital reserve.

The special voting shares have immaterial economic entitlements. Such economic entitlements are designed to comply with Dutch law but are immaterial for investors. The special voting shares carry the same voting rights as Ferrari common shares.

Section 10 of the Terms and Conditions include liquidated damages provisions intended to deter any attempt by holders to circumvent the terms of the special voting shares. Such liquidated damages provisions may be enforced by Ferrari by means of a legal action brought by Ferrari before competent courts of Amsterdam, the Netherlands. In particular, a violation of the provisions of the Terms and Conditions concerning the transfer of special voting shares, Electing Common Shares (common shares registered in the Loyalty Register for the purpose of becoming Qualifying Common Shares in accordance with the Ferrari Articles of Association) and Qualifying Common Shares may lead to the imposition of liquidated damages. Because we expect the restrictions on transfers of the special voting shares to be effective in practice we do not expect the liquidated damages provisions to be used.

Pursuant to Section 12 of the Terms and Conditions, any amendment to the Terms and Conditions (other than merely technical, non-material amendments and unless such amendment is required to ensure compliance with applicable law or regulations or the listing rules of any securities exchange on which the Ferrari common shares are listed) may only be made with the approval of the general meeting of shareholders of Ferrari.

At any time, a holder of Qualifying Common Shares or Electing Common Shares may request the de-registration of such shares from the Loyalty Register to enable free trading thereof in the Regular Trading System. Upon the de-registration from the Loyalty Register, such shares will cease to be Electing Common Shares or Qualifying Common Shares as the case may be and will be freely tradable and voting rights attached to the corresponding special voting shares will be suspended with immediate effect and such special voting shares shall be transferred to Ferrari for no consideration (om niet).

Terms and Conditions of the Special Voting Shares

The Terms and Conditions apply to the issuance, allocation, acquisition, holding, repurchase and transfer of special voting shares in our share capital and to certain aspects of Electing Common Shares, Qualifying Common Shares and Ferrari common shares, which are or will be registered in the Loyalty Register.

Application for Special Voting Shares

A Ferrari shareholder may at any time elect to participate in the loyalty voting program by requesting that Ferrari register all or some of the number of Ferrari common shares held by such Ferrari shareholder in the Loyalty Register. Such election shall be effective and registration in the Loyalty Register shall occur as of the end of the calendar month during which the election is made. If such Ferrari common shares (i.e. Electing Common Shares) have been registered in the Loyalty Register (and thus blocked from trading in the Regular Trading System) for an uninterrupted period of three years in the name of the same shareholder, the holder of such Ferrari common shares will be entitled to receive one Ferrari special voting share for each such Ferrari common share that has been registered. If at any moment in time such Ferrari common shares are de-registered from the Loyalty Register for whatever reason, the relevant shareholder loses its entitlement to hold a corresponding number of Ferrari special voting shares.

Withdrawal of Special Voting Shares

As described above, a holder of Qualifying Common Shares or Electing Common Shares may request that some or all of its Qualifying Common Shares or Electing Common Shares be de-registered from the Loyalty Register and if held outside the Regular Trading System, transfer such shares back to the Regular Trading System, which will allow such shareholder to freely trade its Ferrari common shares, as described below. From the moment of such request, the holder of Qualifying Common Shares shall be considered to have waived his rights to cast any votes associated with the Ferrari special voting shares which were issued and allocated in respect of such Qualifying Common Shares. Any such request would automatically trigger a mandatory transfer requirement pursuant to which the Ferrari special voting shares will be offered and transferred to Ferrari for no consideration in accordance with the Ferrari Articles of Association and the Terms and Conditions. Ferrari may continue to hold the special voting shares as treasury stock, but will not be entitled to vote any such treasury stock. Alternatively, Ferrari may withdraw and cancel the special voting shares, as a result of which the nominal value of such shares will be allocated to the special capital reserves of Ferrari. Consequently, the loyalty voting feature will terminate as to the relevant Qualifying

109

Common Shares being deregistered from the Loyalty Register. No shareholder required to transfer special voting shares pursuant to the Terms and Conditions shall be entitled to any consideration for such special voting shares and each shareholder expressly waives any rights in that respect as a condition to participation in the loyalty voting program.

Change of Control

A shareholder who is a holder of Qualifying Common Shares or Electing Common Shares must promptly notify the Agent and Ferrari upon the occurrence of a “change of control” as defined in the Ferrari Articles of Association, as described below. The change of control will trigger the de-registration of the relevant Electing Common Shares or Qualifying Common Shares or the relevant Ferrari common shares in the Loyalty Register. The voting rights attached to the special voting shares issued and allocated in respect of the relevant Qualified Common Shares will be suspended upon a direct or indirect change of control in respect of the relevant holder of such Qualifying Common Shares that are registered in the Loyalty Register.

For the purposes of this section a “change of control” shall mean, in respect of any Ferrari shareholder that is not an individual (natuurlijk persoon), any direct or indirect transfer in one or a series of related transactions as a result of which (i) a majority of the voting rights of such shareholder, (ii) the de facto ability to direct the casting of a majority of the votes exercisable at general meetings of shareholders of such shareholder and/or (iii) the ability to appoint or remove a majority of the directors, executive directors or board members or executive officers of such shareholder or to direct the casting of a majority or more of the voting rights at meetings of the board of directors, governing body or executive committee of such shareholder has been transferred to a new owner, provided that no change of control shall be deemed to have occurred if (a) the transfer of ownership and/or control is an intra-group transfer under the same parent company, (b) the transfer of ownership and /or control is the result of the succession or the liquidation of assets between spouses or the inheritance, inter vivos donation or other transfer to a spouse or a relative up to and including the fourth degree or (c) the fair market value of the Qualifying Common Shares held by such shareholder represents less than twenty percent (20 percent) of the total assets of the Transferred Group at the time of the transfer and the Qualifying Common Shares held by such shareholder, in the sole judgment of the company, are not otherwise material to the Transferred Group or the change of control transaction. “Transferred Group” shall mean the relevant shareholder together with its affiliates, if any, over which control was transferred as part of the same change of control transaction within the meaning of the definition of change of control.

Liability to Further Capital Calls

All of the outstanding Ferrari common shares and special voting shares are fully paid and non-assessable.

Additional Issuances and Rights of Preference

Issuance of Shares

The general meeting of shareholders of Ferrari (the “General Meeting”) has the authority to resolve on any issuance of shares, unless such authority has been delegated to the Board of Directors of Ferrari. In such a resolution, the General Meeting must determine the price and other terms of issuance. The Board of Directors of Ferrari may have the power to issue shares if it has been authorized to do so by the General Meeting, or pursuant to the Ferrari Articles of Association. Under Dutch law, such authorization may not exceed a period of five years, but may be renewed by a resolution of the General Meeting for subsequent five-year periods at any time. The Board of Directors has been designated by the Ferrari Articles of Association as the competent body to issue Ferrari common shares and special voting shares up to the maximum aggregate amount of the Ferrari authorized share capital for an initial period of five years from January 2, 2016, which may be extended by the General Meeting with additional consecutive periods of up to a maximum of five years each.

Ferrari will not be required to obtain approval from a General Meeting to issue shares pursuant to the exercise of a right to subscribe for shares that was previously granted pursuant to authority granted by the shareholders or pursuant to delegated authority by the Board of Directors. The General Meeting shall, for as long as any such designation of the Board of Directors of Ferrari for this purpose is in force, no longer has authority to decide on the issuance of shares.

Rights of Pre-emption

Under Dutch law and the Ferrari Articles of Association, each Ferrari shareholder has a right of pre-emption in proportion to the aggregate nominal value of its shareholding upon the issuance of new Ferrari common shares (or the granting of rights to subscribe for Ferrari common shares). Exceptions to this right of pre-emption include the issuance of new Ferrari common shares (or the granting of rights to subscribe for common shares): (i) to employees of Ferrari or another member of its group

110

pursuant to a stock compensation plan of Ferrari, (ii) against payment in kind (contribution other than in cash) and (iii) to persons exercising a previously granted right to subscribe for Ferrari common shares.

In the event of an issuance of special voting shares, shareholders shall not have any right of pre-emption.

The General Meeting may resolve to limit or exclude the rights of pre-emption upon an issuance of Ferrari common shares, which resolution requires approval of at least two-thirds of the votes cast, if less than half of the issued share capital is represented at the General Meeting. The Ferrari Articles of Association or the General Meeting may also designate the Board of Directors to resolve to limit or exclude the rights of pre-emption in relation to the issuance of Ferrari common shares. Pursuant to Dutch law, the designation by the General Meeting may be granted to the Board of Directors for a specified period of time of not more than five years and only if the Board of Directors has also been designated or is simultaneously designated the authority to resolve to issue Ferrari common shares. The Board of Directors is designated in the Ferrari Articles of Association as the competent body to exclude or limit rights of pre-emption for an initial period of five years from January 2, 2016, which may be extended by the General Meeting with additional periods up to a maximum of five years per period.

Repurchase of Shares

Upon agreement with the relevant Ferrari shareholder, Ferrari may acquire its own shares at any time for no consideration (om niet), or subject to certain provisions of Dutch law and the Ferrari Articles of Association for consideration, if: (i) Ferrari’s shareholders’ equity less the payment required to make the acquisition does not fall below the sum of called-up and paid-in share capital and any statutory reserves, (ii) Ferrari would thereafter not hold a pledge over Ferrari common shares or together with subsidiaries hold Ferrari common shares with an aggregate nominal value exceeding 50 percent of the Ferrari’s issued share capital and (iii) the Board of Directors has been authorized to do so by the General Meeting.

The acquisition of fully paid-up shares by Ferrari other than for no consideration (om niet) requires authorization by the General Meeting. Such authorization may be granted for a period not exceeding 18 months and shall specify the number of shares, the manner in which the shares may be acquired and the price range within which shares may be acquired. The authorization is not required for the acquisition of shares from employees of Ferrari or another member of its Group, under a scheme applicable to such employees and no authorization is required for repurchase of shares acquired in certain other limited circumstances in which the acquisition takes place by operation of law, such as pursuant to mergers or demergers. Such shares must be officially listed on a price list of an exchange.

At a General Meeting the shareholders may resolve to designate the Board of Directors of Ferrari as the competent body to resolve on Ferrari acquiring any Ferrari’s fully paid up Ferrari common shares other than for no consideration (om niet) for a period of up to 18 months.

Ferrari may, jointly with its subsidiaries, hold Ferrari shares in its own capital exceeding one-tenth of its issued capital for no more than three years after acquisition of such Ferrari shares for no consideration (om niet) or in certain other limited circumstances in which the acquisition takes place by operation of law, such as pursuant to mergers or demergers. Any Ferrari shares held by Ferrari in excess of the amount permitted shall transfer to all members of the Board of Directors jointly at the end of the last day of such three year period. Each member of the Board of Directors shall be jointly and severally liable to compensate Ferrari for the value of the Ferrari shares at such time, with interest at the statutory rate thereon from such time. The term Ferrari shares in this paragraph shall include depositary receipts for shares and shares in respect of which Ferrari holds a right of pledge.

No votes may be cast at a General Meeting on the Ferrari shares held by Ferrari or its subsidiaries. Also no voting rights may be cast at a General Meeting in respect of Ferrari shares for which depositary receipts have been issued that are owned by Ferrari. Nonetheless, the holders of a right of usufruct or pledge in respect of shares held by Ferrari and its subsidiaries in Ferrari’s share capital are not excluded from the right to vote on such shares, if the right of usufruct or pledge was granted prior to the time such shares were acquired by Ferrari or its subsidiaries. Neither Ferrari nor any of its subsidiaries may cast votes in respect of a share on which it or its subsidiaries holds a right of usufruct or pledge.

Reduction of Share Capital

Shareholders at a General Meeting have the power to cancel shares acquired by Ferrari or to reduce the nominal value of the shares. A resolution to reduce the share capital requires a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast at the General Meeting, if less than one-half of the issued capital is present or represented at the meeting. If more than one-half of the issued share capital is present or represented at the meeting, a simple majority of the votes cast at the General Meeting is required. Any

111

proposal for cancellation or reduction of nominal value is subject to general requirements of Dutch law with respect to reduction of share capital.

Transfer of Shares

In accordance with the provisions of Dutch law, pursuant to Article 12 of the Ferrari Articles of Association, the transfer or creation of Ferrari shares or a right in rem thereon requires a deed intended for that purpose and save when Ferrari is a party to the transaction, written acknowledgment by Ferrari of the transfer.

The transfer of Ferrari common shares that have not been entered into a book-entry system will be effected in accordance with Article 12 of the Ferrari Articles of Association.

Common shares that have been entered into the DTC book-entry system will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC and transfers of beneficial ownership of shares held through DTC will be effected by electronic transfer made by DTC participants. Article 12 of the Ferrari Articles of Association does not apply to the trading of such Ferrari common shares on a regulated market or the equivalent thereof.

Transfers of shares held outside of DTC (including Monte Titoli S.p.A., as a participant in DTC) or another direct registration system maintained by Computershare, Ferrari’s transfer agent in New York (“Transfer Agent”) and not represented by certificates are effected by a stock transfer instrument and require the written acknowledgment by Ferrari. Transfer of registered certificates is effected by presenting and surrendering the certificates to the Transfer Agent. A valid transfer requires the registered certificates to be properly endorsed for transfer as provided for in the certificates and accompanied by proper instruments of transfer and stock transfer tax stamps for, or funds to pay, any applicable stock transfer taxes.

Ferrari common shares are freely transferable. As described below, special voting shares are generally not transferable.

At any time, a holder of Ferrari common shares that are registered in the Loyalty Register (i.e. Electing Common Shares or Qualifying Common Shares) wishing to transfer such Ferrari common shares other than in limited specified circumstances (i.e., transfers to affiliates or to relatives through succession, donation or other transfers) must first request a de-registration of such shares from the Loyalty Register and if held outside the Regular Trading System, transfer such common shares back into the Regular Trading System. After de-registration from the Loyalty Register, such Ferrari common shares no longer qualify as Electing Common Shares or Qualifying Common Shares, as a result, the holder of such Ferrari common shares is required to offer and transfer the special voting shares associated with such Ferrari common shares that were previously Qualifying Common Shares to Ferrari for no consideration (om niet) as described in detail in “—Loyalty Voting Program—Terms and Conditions of the Special Voting Shares—Withdrawal of Special Voting Shares.”

Annual Accounts and Independent Auditor

Ferrari’s financial year is the calendar year. Within four months after the end of each financial year, the Board of Directors will prepare the annual accounts, which must be accompanied by an annual report and an auditor’s report and will publish the accounts and annual report and will make those available for inspection at Ferrari’s corporate address. All members of the Board of Directors are required to sign the annual accounts and in case the signature of any member is missing, the reason for this must be stated. The annual accounts are to be adopted by the General Meeting at the annual general meeting of shareholders, at which meeting the members of the Board of Directors will be discharged from liability for performance of their duties with respect to any matter disclosed in the annual accounts for the relevant financial year insofar this appears from the annual accounts. The annual accounts, the annual report and independent auditor’s report are made available through Ferrari’s website to the shareholders for review as from the day of the notice convening the annual general meeting of shareholders.

Payment of Dividends

Ferrari may make distributions to the shareholders and other persons entitled to the distributable profits only to the extent that its shareholders’ equity exceeds the sum of the paid-up and called up portion of the share capital and the reserves that must be maintained in accordance with Dutch law. No distribution of profits may be made to Ferrari itself for shares that Ferrari holds in its own share capital.

Ferrari may only make a distribution of dividends to the shareholders after the adoption of its statutory annual accounts demonstrating that such distribution is legally permitted. The Board of Directors may determine that other freely distributable distributions shall be made, in whole or in part, from Ferrari’s share premium reserve or from any other reserve, provided that

112

payments from reserves may only be made to the shareholders that are entitled to the relevant reserve upon the dissolution of Ferrari and provided further that the policy of Ferrari on additions to reserves and dividends is duly observed.

Holders of special voting shares will not receive any dividend in respect of the special voting shares. However Ferrari maintains a separate dividend reserve for the special voting shares for the sole purpose of the allocation of the mandatory minimal profits that accrue to the special voting shares. This allocation establishes a reserve for the amount that would otherwise be paid. The special voting shares do not carry any entitlement to any other reserve. Any distribution out of the special dividend reserve or the partial or full release of such reserve requires a prior proposal from the Board of Directors and a subsequent resolution of the meeting of holders of special voting shares.

Insofar as the profits have not been distributed or allocated to the reserves, they may, by resolution of the General Meeting, be distributed as dividends on the Ferrari common shares only. The General Meeting may resolve, on the proposal of the Board of Directors, to declare and distribute dividends in U.S. Dollars. The Board of Directors may decide, subject to the approval of the General Meeting and the Board of Directors having been designated as the body competent to pass a resolution for the issuance of shares, that a distribution shall, wholly or partially, be made in the form of shares, or that shareholders shall be given the option to receive a distribution either in cash or in the form of shares.

The right to dividends and distributions will lapse if the dividends or distributions are not claimed within five years following the day after the date on which they first became payable. Any dividends or other distributions made in violation of the Ferrari Articles of Association or Dutch law will have to be repaid by the shareholders who knew or should have known, of such violation.

General Meetings and Voting Rights

Annual Meeting

An annual General Meeting must be held within six months from the end of Ferrari’s preceding financial year. The purpose of the annual General Meeting is to discuss, among other things, the annual report, the adoption of the annual accounts, allocation of profits (including the proposal to distribute dividends), release of members of the Board of Directors from liability for their management and supervision, and other proposals brought up for discussion by the Board of Directors.

General Meeting and Place of Meetings

Other General Meetings will be held if requested by the Board of Directors, the chairman of the Board of Directors, the chairperson or the chief executive officer, or by the written request (stating the exact subjects to be discussed) of one or more shareholders representing in aggregate at least 10 percent of the issued share capital of the company (taking into account the relevant provisions of Dutch law, and the Ferrari Articles of Association and the applicable stock exchange regulations). General Meetings will be held in Amsterdam or Haarlemmermeer (Schiphol Airport), the Netherlands.

Convocation Notice and Agenda

General Meetings can be convened by a notice, specifying the subjects to be discussed, the place and the time of the meeting and admission and participation procedure, issued at least 15 days before the meeting or 42 days if shares of Ferrari or depositary receipts issued with cooperation of Ferrari have been admitted to trading on the MTA or another regulated market as referred to in Article 1:1 of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act. All convocations, announcements, notifications and communications to shareholders and other persons entitled to attend the General Meeting must be made on the company’s corporate website in accordance with the relevant provisions of Dutch law. The agenda for a General Meeting may contain the items requested by one or more shareholders representing at least three percent of the issued share capital of the company, taking into account the relevant provisions of Dutch law. Requests must be made in writing, including the reasons for adding the relevant item on the agenda, and received by the Board of Directors at least 60 days before the day of the meeting.

Admission and Registration

Each shareholder entitled to vote, and each person holding a usufruct or pledge to whom the right to vote on the Ferrari common shares accrues, shall be authorized to attend the General Meeting, to address the General Meeting and to exercise its voting rights. The registration date of each General Meeting is the twenty-eighth day prior to the date of the General Meeting so as to establish which shareholders are entitled to attend and vote at the General Meeting. Only holders of shares and other persons entitled to vote or attend the General Meeting, at such registration date are entitled to attend and vote at the General

113

Meeting. The convocation notice for the meeting shall state the registration date and the manner in which the persons entitled to attend the General Meeting may register and exercise their rights.

Those entitled to attend a General Meeting may be represented at a General Meeting by a proxy authorized in writing. The requirement that a proxy must be in written form is also fulfilled when it is recorded electronically.

Members of the Board of Directors have the right to attend a General Meeting. In these General Meetings they have an advisory role.

Voting Rights

Each Ferrari common share and each special voting share confers the right on the holder to cast one vote at a General Meeting. Resolutions are passed by a simple majority of the votes cast, unless Dutch law or the Ferrari Articles of Association prescribes a larger majority. Under Dutch law and/or the Ferrari Articles of Association, the following matters require at least two-thirds of the votes cast at a meeting if less than half of the issued share capital is present or represented:

• a resolution to reduce the issued share capital;

• a resolution to amend the Ferrari Articles of Association;

• a resolution to restrict or exclude rights of pre-emption;

• a resolution to authorize the Board of Directors to restrict or exclude shareholder rights of pre-emption;

• a resolution to enter into a legal merger or a legal demerger; or

• a resolution to dissolve Ferrari.

Limitations on rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders

There are no limitations imposed by Dutch law or by the Ferrari Articles of Association on the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or vote Ferrari common shares.

Shareholders’ Votes on Certain Transactions

Any important change in the identity or character of Ferrari must be approved by the General Meeting, including (i) the termination transfer to a third party of the business of Ferrari or practically the entire business of Ferrari; (ii) the entry into or breaking off of any long-term cooperation of Ferrari or a subsidiary with another legal entity or company or as a fully liable partner of a general partnership or limited partnership, where such entry into or breaking off is of far-reaching importance to Ferrari; and (iii) the acquisition or disposal by Ferrari or a subsidiary of an interest in the capital of a company with a value of at least one-third of Ferrari’s assets according to the consolidated statement of financial position with explanatory notes included in the last adopted annual accounts of Ferrari.

Amendments to the Ferrari Articles of Association, including Variation of Rights

A resolution of the General Meeting to amend the Ferrari Articles of Association or to wind up Ferrari may be approved only if proposed by the Board of Directors and must be approved by a vote of a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast if less than one-half of the issued share capital is present or represented at such General Meeting.

The rights of shareholders may be changed only by amending the Ferrari Articles of Association in compliance with Dutch law.

Dissolution and Liquidation

The General Meeting may resolve to dissolve Ferrari, upon a proposal of the Board of Directors thereto. A majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast shall be required if less than one-half of the issued capital is present or represented at the meeting. In the event of dissolution, Ferrari will be liquidated in accordance with Dutch law and the Ferrari Articles of Association and the liquidation shall be arranged by the members of the Board of Directors, unless the General Meeting appoints other liquidators. During liquidation, the provisions of the Ferrari Articles of Association will remain in force as long as possible.

114

If Ferrari is dissolved and liquidated, whatever remains of Ferrari’s equity after all its debts have been discharged shall first be applied to distribute the aggregate balance of share premium reserves and other reserves (other than the special dividend reserve), to holders of Ferrari common shares in proportion to the aggregate nominal value of the Ferrari common shares held by each holder; secondly, from any balance remaining, an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the nominal value of the Ferrari common shares will be distributed to the holders of Ferrari common shares in proportion to the aggregate nominal value of Ferrari common shares held by each of them; thirdly, from any balance remaining, an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the special voting shares dividend reserve will be distributed to the holders of special voting shares in proportion to the aggregate nominal value of the special voting shares held by each of them; fourthly, from any balance remaining, the aggregate amount of the nominal value of the special voting shares will be distributed to the holders of special voting shares in proportion to the aggregate nominal value of the special voting shares held by each of them; and, lastly, any balance remaining will be distributed to the holders of Ferrari common shares in proportion to the aggregate nominal value of Ferrari common shares held by each of them.

Liability of Directors

Under Dutch law, the management of a company is a joint undertaking and each member of the Board of Directors can be held jointly and severally liable to Ferrari for damages in the event of improper or negligent performance of their duties. Further, members of the Board of Directors can be held liable to third parties based on tort, pursuant to certain provisions of the Dutch Civil Code. All directors are jointly and severally liable for failure of one or more co-directors. An individual director is only exempted from liability if he proves that he cannot be held seriously culpable for the mismanagement and that he has not been negligent in seeking to prevent the consequences of the mismanagement. In this regard a director may, however, refer to the allocation of tasks between the directors. In certain circumstances, directors may incur additional specific civil and criminal liabilities.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Under Dutch law, indemnification provisions may be included in a company’s articles of association. Under the Ferrari Articles of Association, Ferrari is required to indemnify its directors, officers, former directors, former officers and any person who may have served at Ferrari’s request as a director or officer of another company in which Ferrari owns shares or of which Ferrari is a creditor who were or are made a party or are threatened to be made a party or are involved in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or investigative (each a “Proceeding”), or any appeal in such a Proceeding or any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such a Proceeding, against any and all liabilities, damages, reasonable and documented expenses (including reasonably incurred and substantiated attorney’s fees), financial effects of judgments, fines, penalties (including excise and similar taxes and punitive damages) and amounts paid in settlement in connection with such Proceeding by any of them. Notwithstanding the above, no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which any of the above-mentioned indemnified persons shall be adjudged to be liable for gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of such person’s duty to Ferrari. This indemnification by Ferrari is not exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled otherwise. Ferrari has purchased directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for the members of the Board of Directors and certain other officers, substantially in line with that purchased by similarly situated companies.

Dutch Corporate Governance Code

The Dutch Corporate Governance Code contains principles and best practice provisions that regulate relations between the board and the shareholders (including the General Meeting). The Dutch Corporate Governance Code is divided into five chapters which address the following topics: (i) long-term value creation; (ii) effective management and supervision; (iii) remuneration; (iv) the general meeting; and (v) one-tier governance structure.

Dutch companies whose shares are listed on a government-recognized stock exchange, such as the NYSE, are required under Dutch law to disclose in their annual reports whether or not they apply the provisions of the Dutch Corporate Governance Code and, in the event that they do not apply a certain provision, to explain the reasons why they have chosen to deviate.

Ferrari acknowledges the importance of good corporate governance and supports the best practice provisions of the Dutch Corporate Governance Code. Therefore, Ferrari intends to comply with the relevant best practice provisions of the Dutch Corporate Governance Code except as may be noted from time to time in Ferrari’s annual reports.

The Dutch Corporate Governance Code has been revised in December 2016 and the revised Dutch Corporate Governance Code entered into force on January 1, 2018, being applicable retroactively as from the financial year 2017.

115

Consequently, Ferrari has reported in 2018 regarding its application of the revised Dutch Corporate Governance Code with respect to the financial year 2017.

Disclosure of Holdings under Dutch Law

Home member state for purposes of the EU Transparency Directive

The Netherlands is Ferrari’s home member state for the purposes of the EU Transparency Directive (Directive 2004/109/EC, as amended). As of the listing of the Ferrari common shares on the MTA, we are subject to financial and other reporting obligations under the AFS and the Dutch Financial Reporting Supervision Act (Wet toezicht financiële verslaggeving) (DFRSA), which both implement the EU Transparency Directive in the Netherlands.

Disclosure of information

Ferrari is required to publish its annual report (consisting of the audited annual accounts, the annual report and the responsibility statement) within four months after the end of each financial year and its half-yearly figures within three months after the end of the first six months of each financial year.

Shareholder disclosure and reporting obligations

As a result of the listing of the Ferrari common shares on the MTA, chapter 5.3 of the Dutch act on Financial Supervision (“AFS”) applies, pursuant to which any person who, directly or indirectly, acquires or disposes of an actual or potential capital interest and/or actual or potential voting rights in Ferrari must promptly give written notice to the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets (stichting Autoriteit Financiële Markten, the “AFM”) of such acquisition or disposal by means of a standard form if, as a result of such acquisition or disposal, the percentage of capital interest and/or voting rights held by such person reaches, exceeds or falls below the following thresholds: 3 percent, 5 percent, 10 percent, 15 percent, 20 percent, 25 percent, 30 percent, 40 percent, 50 percent, 60 percent, 75 percent and 95 percent.

For the purpose of calculating the percentage of capital interest or voting rights, the following interests must, inter alia, be taken into account: (i) shares and/or voting rights directly held (or acquired or disposed of) by any person, (ii) shares and/or voting rights held (or, acquired or disposed of) by such person’s controlled entities or by a third party for such person’s account, (iii) voting rights held (or acquired or disposed of) by a third party with whom such person has concluded an oral or written voting agreement, (iv) voting rights acquired pursuant to an agreement providing for a temporary transfer of voting rights in consideration for a payment, and (v) shares which such person, or any controlled entity or third party referred to above, may acquire pursuant to any option or other right to acquire shares.

As a consequence of the above, special voting shares must be added to Ferrari common shares for the purposes of the above thresholds.

Controlled entities (within the meaning of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act) do not themselves have notification obligations under the AFS as their direct and indirect interests are attributed to their (ultimate) parent. If a person who has a three percent or larger interest in Ferrari’s share capital or voting rights ceases to be a controlled entity it must immediately notify the AFM and all notification obligations under the AFS will become applicable to such former controlled entity.

Special rules apply to the attribution of shares and/or voting rights which are part of the property of a partnership or other form of joint ownership. A holder of a pledge or right of usufruct in respect of shares can also be subject to notification obligations, if such person has, or can acquire, the right to vote on the shares. The acquisition of (conditional) voting rights by a pledgee or beneficial owner may also trigger notification obligations as if the pledgee or beneficial owner were the legal holder of the shares and/or voting rights.

Furthermore, when calculating the percentage of capital interest, a person is also considered to be in possession of shares if (i) such person holds a financial instrument the value of which is (in part) determined by the value of the shares or any distributions associated therewith and which does not entitle such person to acquire any shares, (ii) such person may be obliged to purchase shares on the basis of an option, or (iii) such person has concluded another contract whereby such person acquires an economic interest comparable to that of holding a share.

If a person’s capital interest and/or voting rights reaches, exceeds or falls below the above-mentioned thresholds as a result of a change in Ferrari’s issued and outstanding share capital or voting rights, such person is required to make a notification not later than on the fourth trading day after the AFM has published Ferrari’s notification as described below.

116

Following the implementation of Directive 2013/50/EU into the AFS, every holder of three percent more of the issued and outstanding share capital or voting rights whose interest has changed compared to his most recent notification, and which holder knows or should know that pursuant to this change his interest reaches or crosses a threshold as a result of certain acts (as described above and including the exchange of a financial instrument or a contract (pursuant to which the holder is deemed to have issued and outstanding shares or voting rights at his disposal)), must notify the AFM of this change.

Ferrari is required to notify the AFM promptly of any change of one percent or more in its issued and outstanding share capital or voting rights since a previous notification. Other changes in Ferrari’s issued and outstanding share capital or voting rights must be notified to the AFM within eight days after the end of the quarter in which the change occurred.

In addition to the above described notification obligations pertaining to capital interest or voting rights, pursuant to Regulation (EU) No 236/2012, as amended, notification must be made of any net short position of 0.2% in the issued share capital of Ferrari, and of every subsequent 0.1% above this threshold. Notifications starting at 0.5% and every subsequent 0.1% above this threshold will be made public via the short selling register of the AFM. Furthermore, gross short positions shall be notified in the event that a threshold is reached, exceeded or fallen below. With regard to gross short positions, the same disclosure thresholds as for holders of capital interests and/or voting rights apply.

Furthermore, each member of the Board of Directors must notify the AFM:

• within two weeks after his/her appointment of the number of shares he/she holds and the number of votes he/she is entitled to cast in respect of Ferrari’s issued and outstanding share capital, and

• subsequently of each change in the number of shares he/she holds and of each change in the number of votes he/she is entitled to cast in respect of Ferrari’s issued and outstanding share capital, immediately after the relevant change.

The AFM keeps a public register of all notifications made pursuant to these disclosure obligations and publishes any notification received which can be accessed via www.afm.nl. The notifications referred to in this paragraph should be made in writing by means of a standard form or electronically through the notification system of the AFM.

Non-compliance with these disclosure obligations is an economic offense and may lead to criminal prosecution. The AFM may impose administrative penalties for non-compliance, and the publication thereof. In addition, a civil court can impose measures against any person who fails to notify or incorrectly notifies the AFM of matters required to be notified. A claim requiring that such measures be imposed may be instituted by Ferrari and/or by one or more shareholders who alone or together with others represent at least three percent of the issued and outstanding share capital of Ferrari or are able to exercise at least three percent of the voting rights. The measures that the civil court may impose include:

• an order requiring appropriate disclosure;

• suspension of the right to exercise the voting rights for a period of up to three years as determined by the court;

• voiding a resolution adopted by the General Meeting, if the court determines that the resolution would not have been adopted but for the exercise of the voting rights of the person with a duty to disclose, or suspension of a resolution adopted by the general meeting of shareholders until the court makes a decision about such voiding; and

• an order to refrain, during a period of up to five years as determined by the court, from acquiring shares and/or voting rights in Ferrari. Shareholders are advised to consult with their own legal advisers to determine whether the disclosure obligations apply to them.

Shareholders are advised to consult with their own legal advisers to determine whether the disclosure obligations apply to them.

Mandatory Bid Requirement

Under Dutch law any person, acting alone or in concert with others, who, directly or indirectly, acquires 30 percent or more of Ferrari’s voting rights will be obliged to launch a public offer for all outstanding shares in Ferrari’s share capital. An

117

exception is made for shareholders who, whether alone or acting in concert with others, had an interest of at least 30 percent of Ferrari’s voting rights before the shares were first listed on the MTA and who still maintained such an interest after such first listing. Immediately after the first listing of Ferrari common shares on the MTA, Exor held more than 30 percent of Ferrari’s voting rights. Therefore Exor’s interest in Ferrari was grandfathered and the exception that applies to it will continue to apply to it for as long as its holding of shares represents over 30 percent of Ferrari’s voting rights.

Dutch Financial Reporting Supervision Act

On the basis of the Dutch Financial Reporting Supervision Act (Wet toezicht financiële verslaggeving), or the FRSA, the AFM supervises the application of financial reporting standards by, amongst others, companies whose official seat is in the Netherlands and whose securities are listed on a regulated market within the EU or in a non-EU country on a system similar to a regulated market.

Pursuant to the FRSA, the AFM has an independent right to (i) request an explanation from Ferrari regarding its application of the applicable financial reporting standards and (ii) recommend to us the making available of further explanations. If we do not comply with such a request or recommendation, the AFM may request that the Enterprise Chamber order us to (i) make available further explanations as recommended by the AFM, (ii) provide an explanation of the way we have applied the applicable financial reporting standards to our financial reports or (iii) prepare our financial reports in accordance with the Enterprise Chamber’s instructions.

Compulsory Acquisition

Pursuant to article 2:92a of the Dutch Civil Code (“DCC”), a shareholder who, for its own account, holds at least 95 percent of the issued share capital of Ferrari may institute proceedings against the other shareholders jointly for the transfer of their shares to it. The proceedings are held before the Dutch Enterprise Chamber and can be instituted by means of a writ of summons served upon each of the minority shareholders in accordance with the provisions of the Dutch Code of Civil Procedure. The Enterprise Chamber may grant the claim for the squeeze-out in relation to all minority shareholders and will determine the price to be paid for the shares, if necessary after appointment of one or three expert(s) who will offer an opinion to the Enterprise Chamber on the value to be paid for the shares of the minority shareholders. Once the order to transfer becomes final before the Enterprise Chamber, the person acquiring the shares must give written notice of the date and place of payment and the price to the holders of the shares to be acquired whose addresses are known to it. Unless the addresses of all of them are known to it, it must also publish the same in a Dutch daily newspaper with a national circulation. A shareholder can only appeal against the judgment of the Enterprise Chamber before the Dutch Supreme Court.

In addition, pursuant to article 2:359c of the DCC, an offeror under a public offer is also entitled to start a squeeze out procedure, within three months after the public offer, if following the public offer it holds at least 95% of the issued share capital of Ferrari representing at least 95% of the total voting rights. In the event of a mandatory offer, the mandatory offer price is in principle deemed to be a reasonable price, which has to be accepted by minority shareholders. In the event of a voluntary public offer, the offer price is considered reasonable if at least 90% of the shares have been acquired under the public offer.

Pursuant to article 2:359d of the DCC, if the offeror has acquired at least 95% of the issued share capital of Ferrari representing at least 95% of the total voting rights, each remaining minority shareholder is entitled to demand a squeeze out. This procedure must be initiated with the Enterprise Chamber within three months after the end of the period for tendering Shares in the public offer. With regard to the price per share to be paid by the majority Shareholder, the same procedure as for squeeze out proceedings initiated by the offeror, as set out in the previous paragraph, applies.

Disclosure of Trades in Listed Securities

Disclosure under Dutch Law

Pursuant to the AFS and the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 (the “Market Abuse Regulation”), each of the members of the Board of Directors and any other person discharging managerial responsibilities within Ferrari and who in that capacity is authorized to make decisions affecting the future developments and business prospects of Ferrari and who has regular access to inside information relating, directly or indirectly, to Ferrari (each, an “Insider”) must notify the AFM of all transactions, conducted or carried out for his/her own account, relating to Ferrari common shares, special voting shares or financial instruments, the value of which is (in part) determined by the value of Ferrari common shares or special voting shares.

118

In addition, persons who are closely associated with members of the Board of Directors or any of the other Insiders must notify the AFM of all transactions conducted for their own account relating to Ferrari’s shares or financial instruments, the value of which is (in part) determined by the value of Ferrari’s shares. The Market Abuse Regulation designates the following categories of persons: (i) the spouse or any partner considered by applicable law as equivalent to the spouse, (ii) dependent children, (iii) other relatives who have shared the same household for at least one year at the relevant transaction date, and (iv) any legal person, trust or partnership, among other things, whose managerial responsibilities are discharged by a member of the Board of Directors or any other Insider or by a person referred to under (i), (ii) or (iii) above.

The AFM must be forthwith notified of transactions effected in either Ferrari’s shares or financial instruments, the value of which is (in part) determined by the value of Ferrari’s shares, following the transaction date by means of a standard form. Notifications under the Market Abuse Regulation may however be postponed until the date that the value of the transactions carried out on a person’s own account, together with the transactions carried out by the persons associated with that person, reaches or exceeds the amount of €5,000 in the calendar year in question. The AFM keeps a public register of all notifications made pursuant to the AFS and the Market Abuse Regulation.

Ferrari is required to make inside information public. Inside information is precise information directly or indirectly relating to the issuer or the trade in its securities which has not yet been made public and publication of which could significantly affect the trading price of the securities. Ferrari must also provide the Consob with this inside information at the time of publication. Furthermore, Ferrari must without delay publish the inside information on its website and keep it available on Ferrari’s website for at least five years.

It is prohibited for any person to make use of inside information by conducting, effecting or attempting to conduct or effect a transaction in relevant financial instruments. In addition, it is prohibited for any person to pass on inside information relating to Ferrari or the trade in its securities to a third party or to recommend or induce, on the basis of inside information, any person to conduct a transaction in securities of Ferrari. Furthermore, it is prohibited for any person to manipulate or attempt to manipulate the market, for instance by conducting transactions which could lead to an incorrect or misleading signal of the supply of, the demand for or the price of the securities. The provisions of the Market Abuse Regulation concerning insider trading and manipulation of the market are self-executing and immediately applicable Italian law. Moreover, on October 2016 CONSOB started a process for the review (in light of the Market Abuse Regulation) of certain regulatory provisions contained in the Issuers’ Regulation no. 11971/1999.

Non-compliance with these reporting obligations could lead to criminal penalties, administrative fines and cease-and-desist orders (and the publication thereof), imprisonment or other sanctions.

Shareholder Disclosure and Reporting Obligations under U.S. Law

Holders of Ferrari shares are subject to certain U.S. reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) for shareholders owning more than 5 percent of any class of equity securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act. Among the reporting requirements are disclosure obligations intended to inform the market of significant accumulations of shares that may lead to a change of control of an issuer.

If Ferrari were to fail to qualify as a foreign private issuer in the future, Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act would require Ferrari’s directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of Ferrari’s equity securities, to file reports of ownership of, and transactions in, Ferrari’s equity securities with the SEC. Such directors, executive officers and ten percent stockholders would also be required to furnish Ferrari with copies of all Section 16 reports they file.

Disclosure Requirements under Italian law

Summarized below are the most significant requirements to be complied with by Ferrari in connection with the admission to listing of Ferrari common shares on the MTA. The breach of the obligations described below may result in the application of fines and criminal penalties (including, for instance, those provided for insider trading and market manipulation). Further requirements may be imposed by CONSOB and/or Borsa Italiana as a result of the listing of Ferrari common shares on the MTA.

In particular, the following main disclosure obligations provided for by the Legislative Decree no. 58/1998, or the Italian Financial Act, effective as of the date of this document shall apply to Ferrari, article 92 (equal treatment principle), article 114 (information to be provided to the public), article 114-bis (information to be provided to the market concerning

119

the allocation of financial instruments to corporate officers, employees and collaborators), article 115 (information to be disclosed to CONSOB) and article 180 and the following (relating to insider trading and market manipulation). In addition to the above, the applicable provisions set forth under the market rules (including those relating to the timing for the payment of dividends) shall apply to Ferrari.

Disclosure of Inside Information

Pursuant to the Market Abuse Regulation, Ferrari shall disclose to the public, without delay, any inside information which: (i) is of a precise nature, (ii) has not been made public, (iii) relates, directly or indirectly, to Ferrari or Ferrari’s common shares, and (iv) if it were made public, would be likely to have a significant effect on the prices of Ferrari’s common shares or on the price of related derivative financial instruments (the “Inside Information”).

In this regard, Inside Information shall be deemed to be of a precise nature if: (a) it indicates a set of circumstances which exists or which may reasonably be expected to come into existence, or an event which has occurred or which may reasonably be expected to occur and (b) it is specific enough to enable a conclusion to be drawn as to the possible effect of that set of circumstances or events on the prices of the financial instruments (i.e., Ferrari’s common shares) or the related derivative financial instruments.

The above disclosure requirement shall be complied with through the publication of a press release by Ferrari, in accordance with the modalities set forth under the Market Abuse Regulation, Dutch and Italian law, disclosing to the public the relevant Inside Information. The provisions of the MAR concerning the disclosure of inside information are self-executing and immediately applicable under Italian law.

Under specific circumstances, CONSOB may at any time request: (a) Ferrari to disclose to the public specific information or documentation where deemed appropriate or necessary or alternatively (b) to be provided with specific information or documentation. For this purpose, CONSOB has wide powers to, among other things, carry out inspections or request information to the members of the managing board, the members of the supervisory board or to the external auditor.

Ferrari shall publish and transmit to CONSOB any information disseminated in any non EU-countries where Ferrari’s common shares are listed (i.e., the United States), if this information is significant for the purposes of the evaluation of Ferrari’s common shares listed on the MTA.

Insiders’ Register

Pursuant to the Market Abuse Regulation, Ferrari and its subsidiaries, as well as persons acting on their behalf or for their account, shall draw up, and keep promptly updated, a list of persons who, in the exercise of their employment, profession or duties, have access to Inside Information. Ferrari shall provide such list to the competent authority at its request.

Public Tender Offers

Certain rules provided for under Italian law with respect to both voluntary and mandatory public tender offers shall apply to any offer launched for Ferrari’s common shares. In particular, among other things, the provisions concerning the tender offer price, the content of the offer document and the disclosure of the tender offer will be subject to the supervision by CONSOB and Italian law.

Election and Removal of Directors

The Ferrari Articles of Association provide that the Board of Directors shall be composed of three or more members.

Directors are appointed by a simple majority of the votes validly cast at a General Meeting. The General Meeting may at any time suspend or dismiss any director.

C. Material Contracts

For a discussion of our syndicated facility, and issuance of notes please see “Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources”. For a description of Ferrari’s equity incentive plan please see “”Item 6.B. Compensation”.

120

D. Exchange Controls

Under Dutch law, there are no exchange control restrictions on investments in, or payments on, the Ferrari common shares. There are no special restrictions in the Ferrari Articles of Association or Dutch law that limit the right of shareholders who are not citizens or residents of the Netherlands to hold or vote the Ferrari common shares.

E. Taxation

Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences

This section describes the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning Ferrari common shares and special voting shares. It applies solely to U.S. holders (as defined below) that hold common shares or special voting shares of Ferrari as capital assets. This section does not apply to holders subject to special rules, including:

• a dealer in securities or foreign currencies,

• a regulated investment company,

• a trader in securities that elects to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for securities holdings,

• a tax-exempt organization,

• a bank, financial institution, or insurance company,

• a person liable for the alternative minimum tax,

• a person that actually or constructively owns 10 percent or more, by vote or value, of Ferrari,

• a person that holds common shares or special voting shares of Ferrari as part of a straddle or a hedging, conversion, or other risk reduction transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes,

• a person that acquired common shares or special voting shares of Ferrari pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation, or

• a person whose functional currency is not the U.S. Dollar.

This section is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), its legislative history, existing and proposed regulations, published rulings and court decisions, as well as on applicable tax treaties, all as of the date hereof. These laws are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis.

If an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds shares, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and the tax treatment of the partnership. A partner in an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holding shares should consult its tax advisors with regard to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the ownership of Ferrari common shares.

Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, state and local and foreign and other tax consequences of owning and disposing of Ferrari common shares in their particular circumstances.

For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of common shares of Ferrari that is:

• an individual that is a citizen or resident of the United States;

• a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation, created or organized under the laws of the United States;

• an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

121

• a trust if (i) a U.S. court can exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more U.S. persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (ii) the trust has made a valid election under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

Taxation of Dividends

Under the U.S. federal income tax laws, and subject to the discussion of PFIC taxation below, a U.S. holder must include in its gross income the gross amount of any dividend paid by Ferrari to the extent of its current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes). Dividends will be taxed as ordinary income to the extent that they are paid out of Ferrari’s current or accumulated earnings and profits. Dividends paid to a non-corporate U.S. holder by certain “qualified foreign corporations” that constitute qualified dividend income are taxable to the holder at the preferential rates applicable to long-term capital gains provided that the holder holds the shares for more than 60 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend date and meets other holding period requirements. For this purpose, common shares of Ferrari are treated as stock of a “qualified foreign corporation” if Ferrari is eligible for the benefits of an applicable comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States or if such stock is readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. The common shares of Ferrari are listed on the New York Stock Exchange and Ferrari expects to be eligible for the benefits of such a treaty. Accordingly, subject to the discussion of PFIC taxation below, dividends Ferrari pays with respect to the shares are expected to constitute qualified dividend income, assuming the holding period requirements are met. However, no assurance can be given that the common shares of Ferrari will be treated as readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States or that Ferrari will qualify for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States.

A U.S. holder must include any foreign tax withheld from the dividend payment in this gross amount even though the holder does not in fact receive the amount withheld. The dividend is taxable to a U.S. holder when the U.S. holder receives the dividend, actually or constructively.

The dividend will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to U.S. corporations in respect of dividends received from other U.S. corporations.

Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, will be treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of the U.S. holder’s basis in Ferrari common shares, causing a reduction in the U.S. holder’s adjusted basis in Ferrari common shares, and thereafter as capital gain.

Subject to certain limitations, any non-U.S. tax withheld and paid over to a non-U.S. taxing authority is eligible for credit against a U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability except to the extent a refund of the tax withheld is available to the U.S. holder under non-U.S. tax law or under an applicable tax treaty. The amount allowed to a U.S. holder as a credit is limited to the amount of the U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability that is attributable to income from sources outside the U.S. and is computed separately with respect to different types of income that the U.S. holder receives from non-U.S. sources. Subject to the discussion below regarding Section 904(h) of the Code, dividends paid by Ferrari will be foreign source income and will generally be “passive” income for purposes of computing the foreign tax credit allowable to a U.S. holder.

Under Section 904(h) of the Code, dividends paid by a foreign corporation that is treated as 50 percent or more owned, by vote or value, by U.S. persons may be treated as U.S. source income (rather than foreign source income) for foreign tax credit purposes, to the extent the foreign corporation earns U.S. source income, unless such corporation has less than 10 percent of applicable earnings and profits attributable to sources within the U.S. In certain circumstances, U.S. holders may be able to choose the benefits of Section 904(h)(10) of the Code and elect to treat dividends that would otherwise be U.S. source dividends as foreign source dividends, but in such a case the foreign tax credit limitations would be separately determined with respect to such “resourced” income. In general, therefore, the application of Section 904(h) of the Code may adversely affect a U.S. holder’s ability to use foreign tax credits. Ferrari does not believe that it is 50 percent or more owned by U.S. persons. In addition, Ferrari believes that its earnings and profits attributable to sources within the U.S. will not exceed 10 percent of applicable earnings and profits. However, these conclusions are factual determinations and are subject to change; no assurance can therefore be given that Ferrari may not be treated as 50 percent or more owned by U.S. persons for purposes of Section 904(h) of the Code or that less than 10 percent of Ferrari’s earnings and profits will be attributable to sources within the U.S. U.S. holders are strongly urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the possible impact if Section 904(h) of the Code should apply.

Taxation of Capital Gains

Subject to the discussion of PFIC taxation and expected tax consequences of the Separation below, a U.S. holder that sells or otherwise disposes of its Ferrari common shares will recognize capital gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes equal to the difference between the U.S. Dollar value of the amount that the U.S. holder realizes and the U.S. holder’s tax basis in those shares. Capital gain of a noncorporate U.S. holder is generally taxed at preferential rates where the property is held for

122

more than one year. The gain or loss will be U.S. source income or loss for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. The deduction of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Loyalty Voting Program

NO STATUTORY, JUDICIAL OR ADMINISTRATIVE AUTHORITY DIRECTLY DISCUSSES HOW THE RECEIPT, OWNERSHIP OR DISPOSITION OF SPECIAL VOTING SHARES SHOULD BE TREATED FOR U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES AND AS A RESULT, THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES ARE UNCERTAIN. ACCORDINGLY, WE URGE U.S. HOLDERS TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE RECEIPT, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF SPECIAL VOTING SHARES.

Receipt of special voting shares

If a U.S. holder receives special voting shares, the tax consequences of the receipt of special voting shares is unclear. While distributions of stock are tax-free in certain circumstances, it is possible that the distribution of special voting shares could be treated as a distribution subject to tax as described above in “—Taxation of Dividends” if such distribution were considered to result in a “disproportionate distribution.” If the distribution of special voting shares were so treated, the amount of the distribution should equal the fair market value of the special voting shares received. Ferrari believes and intends to take the position that the value of each special voting share is minimal. However, because the fair market value of the special voting shares is factual and is not governed by any guidance that directly addresses such a situation, the IRS could assets that the value of the special voting shares (and thus the amount of the distribution) as determined by Ferrari is incorrect.

Ownership of special voting shares

Ferrari believes that U.S. holders holding special voting shares should not have to recognize income in respect of amounts transferred to the special voting shares dividend reserve that are not paid out as dividends. Section 305 of the Code may, in certain circumstances, require a holder of preferred shares to recognize income even if no dividends are actually received on such shares if the preferred shares are redeemable at a premium and the redemption premium results in a “constructive distribution.” Preferred shares for this purpose refer to shares that do not participate in corporate growth to any significant extent. Ferrari believes that Section 305 of the Code should not apply to any amounts transferred to the special voting shares dividend reserve that are not paid out as dividends so as to require current income inclusion by U.S. holders because, among other things, (i) the special voting shares are not redeemable on a specific date and a U.S. holder is only entitled to receive amounts in respect of the special voting shares upon liquidation, (ii) Section 305 of the Code does not require the recognition of income in respect of a redemption premium if the redemption premium does not exceed a de minimis amount and, even if the amounts transferred to the special voting shares dividend reserve that are not paid out as dividends are considered redemption premium, the amount of the redemption premium is likely to be “de minimis” as such term is used in the applicable Treasury Regulations. Ferrari therefore intends to take the position that the transfer of amounts to the special voting shares dividend reserve that are not paid out as dividends does not result in a “constructive distribution,” and this determination is binding on all U.S. holders of special voting shares other than a U.S. holder that explicitly discloses its contrary determination in the manner prescribed by the applicable regulations. However, because the tax treatment of the loyalty voting program is unclear and because Ferrari’s determination is not binding on the IRS, it is possible that the IRS could disagree with Ferrari’s determination and require current income inclusion in respect of such amounts transferred to the special voting shares dividend reserve that are not paid out as dividends.

Disposition of special voting shares

The tax treatment of a U.S. holder that has its special voting shares redeemed for zero consideration after removing its common shares from the Loyalty Register is unclear. It is possible that a U.S. holder would recognize a loss to the extent of the U.S. holder’s basis in its special voting shares. Such loss would be a capital loss and would be a long-term capital loss if a U.S. holder has held its special voting shares for more than one year. It is also possible that a U.S. holder would not be allowed to recognize a loss upon the redemption of its special voting shares and instead a U.S. holder should increase the basis in its Ferrari common shares by an amount equal to the basis in its special voting shares. Such basis increase in a U.S. holder’s Ferrari common shares would decrease the gain, or increase the loss, that a U.S. holder would recognize upon the sale or other taxable disposition of its Ferrari common shares.

THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX TREATMENT OF THE LOYALTY VOTING PROGRAM IS UNCLEAR AND U.S. HOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS IN RESPECT OF THE CONSEQUENCES OF ACQUIRING, OWNING, AND DISPOSING OF SPECIAL VOTING SHARES.

123

PFIC Considerations

Ferrari believes that shares of its stock will not be stock of a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but this conclusion is based on a factual determination made annually and thus is subject to change. As discussed in greater detail below, if shares of Ferrari stock were to be treated as stock of a PFIC, gain realized (subject to the discussion below regarding a mark-to-market election) on the sale or other disposition of shares of Ferrari stock would not be treated as capital gain, and a U.S. holder would be treated as if such U.S. holder had realized such gain and certain “excess distributions” ratably over the U.S. holder’s holding period for its shares of Ferrari stock and would be taxed at the highest tax rate in effect for each such year to which the gain was allocated, together with an interest charge in respect of the tax attributable to each such year. With certain exceptions, a U.S. holder’s shares of Ferrari stock would be treated as stock in a PFIC if Ferrari were a PFIC at any time during such U.S. holder’s holding period in the shares. Dividends received from Ferrari would not be eligible for the special tax rates applicable to qualified dividend income if Ferrari were treated as a PFIC in the taxable years in which the dividends are paid or in the preceding taxable year (regardless of whether the U.S. holder held shares of Ferrari stock in such year) but instead would be taxable at rates applicable to ordinary income.

Ferrari would be a PFIC with respect to a U.S. holder if for any taxable year in which the U.S. holder held shares of Ferrari stock, after the application of applicable “look-through rules”:

• 75 percent or more of Ferrari’s gross income for the taxable year consists of “passive income” (including dividends, interest, gains from the sale or exchange of investment property and rents and royalties other than rents and royalties that are received from unrelated parties in connection with the active conduct of a trade or business, as defined in applicable Treasury Regulations); or

• at least 50 percent of its assets for the taxable year (averaged over the year and determined based upon value) produce or are held for the production of passive income.

Because the determination whether a foreign corporation is a PFIC is primarily factual and there is little administrative or judicial authority on which to rely to make a determination, the IRS might not agree that Ferrari is not a PFIC. Moreover, no assurance can be given that Ferrari would not become a PFIC for any future taxable year if there were to be changes in Ferrari’s assets, income or operations.

If Ferrari were to be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year included in whole or in part in a U.S. holder’s holding period of Ferrari and such U.S. holder is treated as owning shares of Ferrari stock for purposes of the PFIC rules (and regardless of whether Ferrari remains a PFIC for subsequent taxable years), the U.S. holder (i) would be liable to pay U.S. federal income tax at the highest applicable income tax rates on (a) ordinary income upon the receipt of excess distributions (the portion of any distributions received by the U.S. holder on shares of Ferrari stock in a taxable year in excess of 125 percent of the average annual distributions received by the U.S. holder in the three preceding taxable years or, if shorter, the U.S. holder’s holding period for the Ferrari common shares) and (b) on any gain from the disposition of shares of Ferrari stock, plus interest on such amounts, as if such excess distributions or gain had been recognized ratably over the U.S. holder’s holding period of the shares of Ferrari stock, and (ii) may be required to annually file Form 8621 with the IRS reporting information concerning Ferrari.

If Ferrari were to be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year and provided that Ferrari common shares are treated as “marketable stock” within the meaning of applicable Treasury Regulations, which Ferrari believes will be the case, a U.S. holder may make a mark-to-market election with respect to such U.S. holder’s common shares. Under a mark-to-market election, any excess of the fair market value of the Ferrari common shares at the close of any taxable year over the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Ferrari common shares is included in the U.S. holder’s income as ordinary income. These amounts of ordinary income would not be eligible for the favorable tax rates applicable to qualified dividend income or long-term capital gains. In addition, the excess, if any, of the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis at the close of any taxable year over the fair market value of the Ferrari common shares is deductible in an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of the excess or the amount of the net mark-to-market gains that the U.S. holder included in income in prior years. A U.S. holder’s tax basis in Ferrari common shares would be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss. Gain realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of Ferrari common shares would be treated as ordinary income, and any loss realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of Ferrari common shares would be treated as ordinary loss to the extent that such loss does not exceed the net mark-to-market gains previously included by the U.S. holder.

The adverse consequences of owning stock in a PFIC could also be mitigated if a U.S. holder makes a valid “qualified electing fund” election (“QEF election”), which, among other things, would require a U.S. holder to include currently in income its pro rata share of the PFIC’s net capital gain and ordinary earnings, based on earnings and profits as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Because of the administrative burdens involved, Ferrari does not intend to provide information to its holders that would be required to make such election effective.

124

A U.S. holder that holds shares of Ferrari stock during a period when Ferrari is a PFIC will be subject to the foregoing rules for that taxable year and all subsequent taxable years with respect to that U.S. holder’s holding of Ferrari common shares, even if Ferrari ceases to be a PFIC, subject to certain exceptions for U.S. holders that made a mark-to-market or QEF election. U.S. holders are strongly urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the PFIC rules, and the potential tax consequences to them if Ferrari were determined to be a PFIC.

Material Netherlands Tax Consequences

This section describes solely the principal Dutch tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposal of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares by Non-Resident holders of such shares (as defined below). It does not purport to describe every aspect of Dutch taxation that may be relevant to a particular holder of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares. Tax matters are complex, and the tax consequences to a particular holder of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares will depend in part on such holder’s circumstances. Shareholders and any potential investor should consult their own tax advisors regarding the Dutch tax consequences of acquiring, owning and disposing of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares in their particular circumstances.

Where in this section English terms and expressions are used to refer to Dutch concepts, the meaning to be attributed to such terms and expressions shall be the meaning to be attributed to the equivalent Dutch concepts under Dutch tax law. Where in this section the terms “the Netherlands” and “Dutch” are used, these refer solely to the European part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

This section also assumes that the board shall control the conduct of the affairs of Ferrari and shall procure that Ferrari is organized such that Ferrari should be treated as solely resident of Italy for the application of the tax treaty as concluded between Italy and The Netherlands. A change in facts and circumstances based upon which Ferrari is no longer considered to be solely resident of Italy for the application of the mentioned treaty may invalidate the contents of this section, which will not be updated to reflect any such change.

This section is based on the tax law of the Netherlands (unpublished case law not included) as it stands at the date of this Form. The law upon which this description is based is subject to change, perhaps with retroactive effect. Any such change may invalidate the contents of this description, which will not be updated to reflect such change.

Where in this Dutch taxation section reference is made to “a holder of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares”, that concept includes, without limitation:

1. an owner of one or more Ferrari common shares and/or Ferrari special voting shares who in addition to the title to such Ferrari common shares and/or Ferrari special voting shares, has an economic interest in such Ferrari common shares and/or Ferrari special voting shares;

2. a person who or an entity that holds the entire economic interest in one or more Ferrari common shares and/or Ferrari special voting shares;

3. a person who or an entity that holds an interest in an entity, such as a partnership or a mutual fund, that is transparent for Dutch tax purposes, the assets of which comprise one or more Ferrari common shares and/or Ferrari special voting shares, within the meaning of 1. or 2. above; or

4. a person who is deemed to hold an interest in Ferrari common shares and/or Ferrari special voting shares, as referred to under 1. to 3., pursuant to the attribution rules of article 2.14a, of the Dutch Income Tax Act 2001 (Wet inkomstenbelasting 2001), with respect to property that has been segregated, for instance in a trust or a foundation.

Scope of the summary.

The summary of Dutch taxes set out in this section “Material Dutch tax consequences” only applies to a holder of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable Ferrari special voting shares who is a Non-Resident holder of such shares. For the purpose of this summary a holder of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable Ferrari special voting shares is a Non-Resident holder of such shares if such holder is neither a resident nor deemed to be resident in The Netherlands for purposes of Dutch income tax or corporation tax as the case may be.

Please note that this summary does not describe the tax considerations for holders of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable Ferrari special voting shares who:

125

(i) are individuals and derive benefits from Ferrari common shares and, if applicable Ferrari special voting shares that are a remuneration or deemed to be a remuneration in connection with past, present or future employment performed in The Netherlands or management activities and functions or membership of a management board (bestuurder) or a supervisory board (commissaris) of a Netherlands resident entity by such holder or certain individuals related to such holder (as defined in The Dutch Income Tax Act 2001); or

(ii) is for Dutch tax purposes taxable as a corporate entity and resident of Aruba, Curacao or Sint Maarten.

Taxes on income and capital gains

A Non-resident holder (as defined above) of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares will not be subject to any Dutch taxes on income or capital gains in respect of any benefits derived or deemed to be derived by such holder from such holder’s Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares, including any capital gain realized on the disposal thereof, unless:

1. such holder derives profits from an enterprise directly, or pursuant to a co-entitlement to the net value of such enterprise, other than as a holder of securities, which enterprise either is managed in the Netherlands or carried on, in whole or in part, through a permanent establishment or a permanent representative which is taxable in the Netherlands, and such holder’s Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares are attributable to such enterprise; or

2. such holder is an individual and such holder derives benefits from Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares that are taxable as benefits from miscellaneous activities (resultaat uit overige werkzaamheden) in the Netherlands. Such holder may, inter alia, derive, or be deemed to derive, benefits from Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares that are taxable as benefits from miscellaneous activities if such holder’s investment activities go beyond the activities of an active portfolio investor, for instance in the case of use of insider knowledge or comparable forms of special knowledge.

Benefits derived or deemed to be derived from certain miscellaneous activities by a child or a foster child who is under eighteen years of age are attributed to the parent who exercises, or the parents who exercise, authority over the child, irrespective of the country of residence of the child.

Dividend withholding tax

Ferrari is generally required to withhold Dutch dividend withholding tax at a rate of 15 percent from dividends distributed by it. As an exception to this rule, Ferrari may not be required to withhold Dutch dividend withholding tax from Non-Resident holders of shares (as defined above) if it is considered to be a tax resident of both the Netherlands and Italy, in accordance with the domestic tax residency provisions applied by each of these jurisdictions, while the double tax treaty between the Netherlands and Italy attributes the tax residency exclusively to Italy.

Gift and inheritance taxes

If a holder of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares disposes of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares by way of gift, in form or in substance, or if a holder of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares who is an individual dies, no Dutch gift tax or Dutch inheritance tax, as applicable, will be due, unless:

i.    the donor is, or the deceased was, resident or deemed to be resident in the Netherlands for purposes of Dutch gift tax or Dutch inheritance tax, as applicable; or

ii.    the donor made a gift of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares, then became a resident or deemed resident of the Netherlands, and died as a resident or deemed resident of the Netherlands within 180 days of the date of the gift.

For purposes of the above, a gift of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares made under a condition precedent is deemed to be made at the time the condition precedent is satisfied.

126

Value Added Tax

No Dutch value added tax will arise in respect of any payment in consideration for the issue of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares.

Registration taxes and duties

No Dutch registration tax, transfer tax, stamp duty or any other similar documentary tax or duty, other than court fees, is payable in the Netherlands by a holder in respect of or in connection with (i) the subscription, issue, placement or allotment of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares, (ii) the enforcement by way of legal proceedings (including the enforcement of any foreign judgment in the courts of the Netherlands) of the documents relating to the issue of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares or the performance by Ferrari of Ferrari’s obligations under such documents, or (iii) the transfer of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares.

Material Italian Income Tax Consequences

This section describes solely the material Italian tax consequences of acquiring, holding, and disposing of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares. It does not consider every aspect of Italian taxation that may be relevant to a particular holder of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares in special circumstances or who is subject to special treatment under applicable law, and it is not intended to be applicable in all respects to all classes of investors.

Shareholders and any potential prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding the Italian tax consequences of acquiring, holding, and disposing of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares in their particular circumstances and should investigate the nature and the origin of the amounts received as distributions in connection with the Ferrari common shares (dividends or reserves).

Where in this section English terms and expressions are used to refer to Italian concepts, the meaning to be given to these terms and expressions shall be the meaning to be given to the equivalent Italian concepts under Italian tax law. This summary assumes that Ferrari common shares will be listed on a regulated market. This summary also assumes that Ferrari is organized, and that the business will be conducted, in the manner outlined in this report. A change to the organizational structure or to the manner in which Ferrari conducts its business may invalidate the contents of this section, which will not be updated to reflect any such change.

This summary is based on the tax laws of the Republic of Italy and case law / practice (unpublished case law / practice is not included) as it stands at the date of this report. The law upon which this description is based is subject to change, potentially with retroactive effect. Any such change may invalidate the contents of this description, which will not be updated to reflect this change.

Definitions

In this section, the following terms have the meaning defined below:

• “CITA”: Presidential Decree No. 917 of December 22, 1986 (the Consolidated Income Tax Act);

• “EEA State”: a State that is party to the European Economic Area Agreement;

• “Finance Act 2017”: Law No. 232 of December 11, 2016;

• “Finance Act 2018”: Law No. 205 of December 27, 2017;

• “Finance Act 2019”: Law No. 145 of December 30, 2018;

• “IRES”: Italian corporate income tax;

•

• “Italian White List”: the list of countries and territories allowing a satisfactory exchange of information with Italy (i) currently included in the Italian Ministerial Decree of September 4, 1996, as subsequently amended and supplemented, or (ii) once effective in any other decree or regulation that will be issued in the future to provide the list of such countries and territories (and that will replace the Ministerial Decree of September 4, 1996), including any country or territory that will be deemed listed therein for the purpose of any interim rule;

127

• “Non-Qualified Holdings”: holdings of common shares in Ferrari, including rights or securities through which Ferrari common shares may be acquired, other than Qualified Holdings;

• “Qualified Holdings”: holdings of common shares in Ferrari, including rights or securities through which Ferrari common shares may be acquired, that represent, in case of shares listed on regulated markets, either (i) more than two percent of the overall voting rights exercisable at ordinary shareholders’ meetings or (ii) an interest in Ferrari’s issued and outstanding capital in excess of 5 percent; and

• “Transfer of Qualified Holdings”: transfers of common shares in Ferrari, including rights or securities through which Ferrari common shares may be acquired, that exceed, over a period of 12 (twelve) months, the threshold for qualifying as Qualified Holdings. The twelve-month period starts from the date when the shares, securities and the rights owned represent a percentage of voting rights or interest in Ferrari’s capital that exceeds the aforesaid thresholds. In case of rights or securities through which Ferrari common shares may be acquired, the percentage of voting rights or interest in Ferrari’s capital potentially attributable to the holding of such rights and securities is taken into account.

Finance Act 2018 materially changed the tax regime applicable to dividends and capital gains from Qualified Holdings received or realized by Italian resident persons not engaged in business activity and by non-resident persons without a permanent establishment in Italy. This section only describes the tax regime applicable to (i) dividends paid out of profits that Ferrari has realized as of fiscal year 2018, and (ii) capital gains realized on common shares as of January 1, 2019.

Finance Act 2018 provides for an interim regime that applies to dividend distributions that are (i) paid out of profits realized by Ferrari until the fiscal year that was current on December 31, 2017 and (ii) declared before December 31, 2022 (dividends declared after this date are subject to the new tax regime enacted by Finance Act 2018 and described below in detail in this section). These dividend distributions would be subject to the old tax regime that applied before Finance Act 2018. In particular, Italian resident individuals holding a Qualified Holding not in connection with a business activity (i) would not be subject to a withholding tax on the distribution, provided that, in this case, the holders declare at the time of receipt that the dividends relate to Qualified Holdings, but (ii) would have to include in their taxable income:

– 40 percent of the amount of the dividends paid out of profits formed until the fiscal year that was current on December 31, 2007;

– 49.72 percent of the amount of the dividends paid out of profits formed after the fiscal year that was current on December 31, 2007 and until the fiscal year that was current on December 31, 2016;

– 58.14 percent of the amount of the dividends paid out of profits formed in the fiscal year that was current on December 31, 2017.

The same interim regime for these dividend distributions should apply to Italian non-business partnerships (società semplici), regardless of whether they hold a Qualified Holding.

Article 1(4) of Ministerial Decree of May 26, 2017 sets forth a priority rule whereby dividends are first deemed to be paid out of profits earned by the distributing company until the fiscal year that was current on December 31, 2007, then out of profits earned until the fiscal year that was current on December 31, 2016 and finally out of profits of subsequent fiscal years.

Taxation of Dividends

The tax regime summarized in this subsection “Taxation of Dividends” applies only to classes of holders of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares that are described here below.

Dividends paid by Ferrari are subject to the tax regime generally applicable to dividends paid by companies that are resident for tax purposes in the Republic of Italy.

As mentioned, this section only describes the tax regime applicable to dividends paid out of profits that Ferrari has realized as of fiscal year 2018.

128

The tax regime may vary as follows.

(A)    ITALIAN RESIDENT PERSONS

(i) Individuals not engaged in business activity

Under Decree No. 600 of September 29, 1973 (“Decree 600”), dividends paid from January 1, 2018 to Italian resident individuals who hold the Ferrari common shares neither in connection with a business activity nor in the context of the discretionary investment portfolio regime (“risparmio gestito”) as defined in subparagraph (A)(ii) below are subject to 26 percent tax withheld at source in Italy. In this case, the holders are not required to report the dividends in their income tax returns.

Subject to certain conditions (including minimum holding period requirement) and limitations, dividends paid by Ferrari may be exempt from any income taxation (including from the 26 percent tax withheld at source) if the common shares do not represent a Qualified Holding and are included in a long-term savings account (piano di risparmio a lungo termine) that meets all the requirements set forth in Article 1(100-114) of Finance Act 2017 or, for those long-term savings accounts set up as of January 1, 2019, all the requirements set forth in Article 1(100-114) of Finance Act 2017 as amended by Article 1(211-215) of Finance Act 2019.

(ii) Individuals not engaged in business activity and holding the Ferrari common shares under the “risparmio gestito” regime

Dividends paid from January 1, 2018 to Italian resident individuals who do not hold the Ferrari common shares in connection with a business activity are not subject to any tax withheld at source in Italy if (a) the holder has entrusted the management of the shares to an authorized intermediary under a discretionary asset management contract, and (c) the holder has elected for the discretionary investment portfolio regime (“risparmio gestito”) under Article 7 of Legislative Decree No. 461 of November 21, 1997 (“Decree 461”). In this case, the dividends are included in the annual accrued management result (risultato maturato annuo di gestione), which is subjected to a 26 percent substitute tax. Even if there is not yet official guidance of the Italian tax authorities after the reform enacted by Finance Act 2018, according to a certain interpretation, until January 1, 2023 the election for the discretionary investment portfolio regime would only be available if the common shares held represent a Non-Qualified Holding.

(iii) Sole Proprietors

Dividends paid to Italian resident individuals who hold the Ferrari common shares in connection with a business activity (“Sole Proprietors”) are not subject to any tax withheld at source in Italy, provided that, in this case, the holders declare at the time of receipt that the profits collected are from holdings connected with their business activity. In this case, dividends must be reported in the income tax return, but only 58.14 percent of such dividends are included in the holder’s overall business income taxable in Italy.

(iv) Partnerships (Italian “società in nome collettivo”, “società in accomandita semplice”, “società semplici” and similar Italian partnerships as referred to in Article 5 CITA), as well as companies and other business entities referred to in Article 73(1)(a)-(b) CITA

No Italian tax is withheld at source on dividends paid to Italian partnerships (such as Italian “società semplici”, “società in nome collettivo”, “società in accomandita semplice” and similar partnerships as referred to in Article 5 CITA). Only 58.14 percent of such dividends are included in the overall business income to be reported by the partnership if the partnership is a business partnership. If it is instead a non-business partnership (“società semplice”), based on a plain and conservative reading of the statute after Finance Act 2018, the partnership should include 100 percent of the dividends in its overall income to be reported.

No Italian tax is withheld at source on dividends paid to Italian resident companies and other Italian resident business entities as referred to in Article 73(1)(a)-(b) CITA, including, among others, corporations (“società per azioni”), partnerships limited by shares (“società in accomandita per azioni”), limited liability companies (“società a responsabilità limitata”) and public and private entities whose sole or primary purpose is to carry out business activities. Only 5 percent of the dividends are included in the overall business income subject to IRES, unless the common shares in Ferrari are financial assets held for trading by holders that apply IAS / IFRS international accounting standards under Regulation No. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and Council of July 19, 2002. In this latter case, the full amount of the dividends is included in the holder’s overall business income subject to IRES.

129

For some types of companies and under certain conditions, dividends are also partially included in the net value of production, which is subject to the regional tax on productive activities (“IRAP”).

(v) Non-business entities referred to in Article 73(1)(c) CITA

No Italian tax is withheld at source on dividends paid to Italian resident non-business entities referred to in Article 73(1)(c) CITA (including Italian resident trusts that do not carry out a business activity), except for Italian collective investment vehicles (“OICR”). The dividends are fully included in the holder’s overall income subject to IRES (only 77.74 percent of the dividend would instead be included in the holder’s overall income if it were paid out of profits formed until the fiscal year that was current on December 31, 2016). For social security entities pursuant to Legislative Decree No. 509 of June 30, 1994 and Legislative Decree No. 103 of February 10, 1996, subject to certain conditions (including minimum holding period requirement) and limitations, dividends and other income from the common shares that do not represent a Qualified Holding may be excluded from the taxable base if the social security entity earmarks the common shares as eligible investment under Article 1(89) of Finance Act 2017 (as amended by Finance Act 2019) to the extent, however, that investment in the common shares (and other qualifying shares or units in undertakings for collective investment investing mainly in qualifying shares) represent no more than 10 percent of the gross asset value of the social security entity of the previous year.

(vi) Persons exempt from IRES and persons outside the scope of IRES

Dividends paid to Italian resident persons that are exempt from IRES are generally subject to 26 percent tax withheld at source.

No Italian tax is instead withheld at source on dividends paid to persons that are outside the scope of IRES (“esclusi”) under Article 74(1) CITA.

(vii) Pension funds and OICR (other than Real Estate AIF)

No Italian tax is withheld at source on dividends paid to (a) Italian pension funds governed by Legislative Decree No. 252 of December 5, 2005 (“Decree 252”) and (b) Italian OICR, other than real estate investment funds and Italian real estate SICAFs (real estate alternative investment funds, “Real Estate AIF”).

Dividends received by Italian pension funds are taken into account to compute the pension fund’s net annual accrued yield, which is subject to a 20 percent flat tax (imposta sostitutiva). Subject to certain conditions (including minimum holding period requirement) and limitations, dividends and other income from the common shares may be excluded from the taxable base of the 20 percent flat tax if the pension fund earmarks the common shares as eligible investment under Article 1(89)-(92) of Finance Act 2017 (as amended by Finance Act 2019) to the extent, however, that investment in the common shares (and other qualifying shares or units in undertakings for collective investment investing mainly in qualifying shares) represent no more than 10 percent of the gross asset value of the pension fund of the previous year.

Dividends received by OICR that are set up in, and organized under the laws of, Italy and that are subject to regulatory supervision (other than Real Estate AIF) are not subject to taxation at the level of the OICR.

(viii) Real Estate AIF

No Italian tax is withheld at source on dividends paid to Italian Real Estate AIF. Moreover, dividends are not subject to either IRES or IRAP at the level of the Real Estate AIF. However, income realized by Italian Real Estate AIF is attributed pro rata to Italian resident unitholders / shareholders, irrespective of any actual distribution, on a tax transparency basis if the Italian resident unitholders / shareholders are not institutional investors and hold units / shares in the Real Estate AIF representing more than 5 percent of the Real Estate AIF’s net asset value.

(B) NON-ITALIAN RESIDENT PERSONS

(i) Non-resident persons holding the common shares in Ferrari through a permanent establishment in Italy

No Italian tax is withheld at source on dividends paid to non-resident persons that hold the common shares in Ferrari through a permanent establishment in Italy to which the common shares in Ferrari are effectively connected. Only 5 percent of the dividends are included in the overall income subject to IRES, unless the common shares in Ferrari are financial assets held for trading by holders that apply IAS / IFRS international accounting standards under Regulation No. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and the Council of July 19, 2002. In this latter case, the full amount of the dividends is included in the overall business income subject to IRES. If the common shares are held by a non-resident Sole Proprietor through a permanent establishment in

130

Italy to which the common shares are effectively connected, only 58.14 percent of the dividends is included in the overall income subject to personal income tax.

For some types of businesses and under certain conditions, dividends are also partially included in the net value of production, which is subject to IRAP.

If dividends are paid with respect to common shares in Ferrari that are not connected with a permanent establishment in Italy of a non-resident person, please see subparagraph (B)(ii) below.

(ii) Non-resident persons that do not hold the common shares in Ferrari through a permanent establishment in Italy

A 26 percent tax withheld at source generally applies on dividends paid to non-resident persons that do not have a permanent establishment in Italy to which the common shares in Ferrari are effectively connected.

Subject to a specific application that must be submitted to the Italian tax authorities under the terms and conditions provided by law, non-resident holders are entitled to relief (in the form of a refund), which cannot be greater than 11/26 (eleven twenty-sixths) of the tax levied in Italy, if they can demonstrate that they have paid final tax abroad on the same profits. Holders who may be eligible for the relief should consult with their own independent tax advisors to determine whether they are eligible for, and how to obtain, the tax refund.

As an alternative to the relief described above, persons resident in countries that have a double tax treaty in force with Italy may request that the withholding tax on dividends be levied at the (reduced) rate provided under the applicable tax treaty, provided that the non-resident person promptly submits proper documentation.

The domestic withholding tax rate on dividends is 1.2 percent (and not 26 percent) if the recipients and beneficial owners of the dividends on Ferrari common shares are companies or entities that are (a) resident for tax purposes in an EU Member State or in an EEA State that is included in the Italian White List and (b) subject to corporate income tax in such State. These companies and entities are not entitled to the relief described above.

The domestic withholding tax rate on dividends is 11 percent (and not 26 percent) if the recipients and beneficial owners of the dividends on Ferrari common shares are pension funds that are set up in an EU Member States or an EEA State included in the Italian White List. These pension funds are not entitled to the relief described above. Moreover, Article 1(95) of Finance Act 2017 (as amended by Finance Act 2019) provides for an exemption from withholding taxation on dividends if a pension fund set up in an EU Member State or an EEA State holds shares in an Italian resident corporation (such as Ferrari) for at least 5 years and only to the extent of dividends from investments in qualifying shares (or units in undertakings for collective investment investing mainly in qualifying shares) that represent no more than 10 percent of the gross asset value of the pension fund of the previous year. To benefit from this exemption, the EU (or “white listed” EEA) pension fund that is the beneficial owner of the dividends must submit an affidavit to the withholding agent whereby it declares that it meets the conditions for the exemption and that it undertakes to hold the shares for the required holding period.

Under Article 27-bis of Decree 600, which implemented in Italy the Directive 435/90/EEC of July 23, 1990, then recast in EU Directive 2011/96 of November 30, 2011 (the “Parent Subsidiary Directive”), a company is entitled to a full refund of the withholding tax levied on the dividends if it (a) has one of the legal forms provided for in the appendix to the Parent Subsidiary Directive, (b) is resident for tax purposes in an EU Member State without being considered to be resident outside the EU according to a double tax treaty signed with a non-EU country, (c) is subject in the country of residence to one of the taxes indicated in the appendix to the Parent Subsidiary Directive with no possibility of benefiting from optional or exemption regimes that have no territorial or time limitations, and (d) directly holds common shares in Ferrari that represent an interest in the issued and outstanding capital of Ferrari of no less than 10 percent for an uninterrupted period of at least one year. If these conditions are met, and as an alternative to submitting a refund request after the dividend distribution, the non-resident company may request that no tax be levied at the time the dividends are paid, provided that (x) the 1-year holding period under condition (d) above has already run and (y) the non-resident company promptly submits proper documentation. The withholding exemption under Article 27-bis of Decree 600 may be denied by the Italian tax authorities in abusive situations pursuant to the Italian statutory general anti-abuse rule (Article 10-bis of Law No. 212 of July 27, 2000).

Under the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation providing for measures equivalent to those laid down in Council Directive 2003/48/EC on taxation of savings income in the form of interest payments, the withholding tax refund / exemption regime described above also applies to dividends paid to a company that (a) is resident for tax purposes in Switzerland without being considered to be resident outside Switzerland according to a double tax treaty signed with a non-EU country, (b) is a limited company, (c) is subject to Swiss corporate tax without being exempted or benefiting

131

from preferential tax regimes, and (d) directly holds common shares in Ferrari that represent an interest in Ferrari’s issued and outstanding capital of no less than 25 percent for an uninterrupted period of at least two years.

Dividends distributed to international entities or bodies that benefit from exemption from taxation in Italy pursuant to international rules or treaties entered into force in Italy will not be subject to withholding tax.

(iii) U.S. holders (without permanent establishment in Italy) of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares

If Ferrari is considered to be a tax resident of both Italy and the Netherlands, in accordance with the domestic tax residency provisions applied by each of these jurisdictions, while the double tax treaty between Italy and the Netherlands attributes the tax residency exclusively to Italy, Ferrari will be required to apply Italian dividend withholding tax on dividends distributed to U.S. holders of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares. However, certain U.S. holders of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares may qualify for full or partial relief from the Italian dividend withholding tax under the Convention between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the Italian Republic for the avoidance of double taxation with respect to taxes on income and the prevention of fraud or fiscal evasion signed in Washington, D.C. on August 25, 1999 (the “Italy-U.S. Treaty”). On the basis of Article 10 of the Italy-U.S. Treaty, qualifying U.S. individuals are entitled to a reduced Italian dividend withholding tax rate (i.e., 15 percent) and qualifying U.S. companies are entitled, under certain conditions, to a reduced Italian dividend withholding tax rate (either 5 percent or 15 percent depending on the circumstances). On the basis of Article 10(8) of the Italy-U:S. Treaty, qualified U.S. governmental entities are entitled, under certain conditions, to a full exemption from Italian dividend withholding tax.

Taxation of distributions of Equity Reserves

The tax regime summarized in this subsection “Taxation of distributions of Equity Reserves” applies only to classes of holders of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares that are described here below.

The information provided in this subsection summarizes the Italian tax regime applicable to the distributions by Ferrari - other than in case of reduction of excess capital, withdrawal, exclusion, redemption or liquidation - of equity reserves as referred to under Article 47(5) CITA, such as, for instance, reserves or other funds formed with share premiums, equalizing interests (interessi di conguaglio) paid in by the subscribers, equity (other than share capital) contributions (versamenti a fondo perduto) or share capital account payments (versamenti in conto capitale) made by shareholders and tax-exempt revaluation reserves (the “Equity Reserves”).

(A) ITALIAN RESIDENT PERSONS

(i) Individuals not engaged in business activity

Regardless of what holders have resolved upon in the shareholders’ meeting, the amounts received as distribution out of Equity Reserves of Ferrari by Italian resident individuals who do not hold the Ferrari common shares in connection with a business activity are deemed to be, and treated as, profits for the recipients to the extent that Ferrari has current year profits and retained profits (except for any portion thereof earmarked to a tax-deferred reserve or non-distributable reserves). Amounts treated as profits are subject to the same tax regime described above for dividends. Amounts received as distributions out of Equity Reserves, net of any amount already treated as profits as per the above, reduce the holder’s tax basis in Ferrari common shares correspondingly. Distributions out of Equity Reserves that are in excess of the holders’ tax basis in the Ferrari common shares are treated as dividends for tax purposes. Special rules may apply if the individual holders have elected with regard to the common shares in Ferrari into the discretionary investment portfolio regime (regime del risparmio gestito) described in subparagraph (A)(i) of the subsection “Taxation of Capital Gains” below.

(ii) Sole Proprietors, business partnerships (Italian “società in nome collettivo,” “società in accomandita semplice” and similar Italian partnerships as referred to in Article 5 CITA), as well as companies and other business entities referred to in Article 73(1)(a)-(b) CITA

Regardless of what holders have resolved upon in the shareholders’ meeting, the amounts received as distribution out of Equity Reserves of Ferrari by Italian Sole Proprietors, Italian business partnerships (Italian “società in nome collettivo,” “società in accomandita semplice” and similar Italian partnerships as referred to in Article 5 CITA), and Italian resident companies and other business entities referred to in Article 73(1)(a)-(b) CITA are deemed to be, and are treated as, profits for the recipients to the extent that Ferrari has current year profits and retained profits (except for any portion thereof earmarked to a tax-deferred reserve or non-distributable reserves). Amounts treated as profits should be subject to the same tax regime described above for dividends. Amounts received as distributions out of Equity Reserves, net of any amount already treated as profits as per the above,

132

reduce the holder’s tax basis in the Ferrari common shares correspondingly. Distributions out of Equity Reserves that are in excess of the holders’ tax basis in the common shares in Ferrari are treated as capital gains for tax purposes and should be subject to the same regime described in the subsection “Taxation of Capital Gains” below.

(iii) Non-business entities referred to in Article 73(1)(c) CITA and non-business partnerships referred to in Article 5 CITA

Amounts received by Italian resident non-business entities referred to in Article 73(1)(c) CITA and Italian non-business partnerships referred to in Article 5 CITA as distributions out of Equity Reserves, net of any amount already treated as profits as per the rules described in subparagraph (A)(i) above, reduce the holder’s tax basis in the Ferrari common shares correspondingly. Distributions out of Equity Reserves that are in excess of the holders’ tax basis in the common shares in Ferrari not held in connection with a business activity are treated as dividends for tax purposes. For a short description of a favorable regime available to certain social security entities, see subparagraph (A)(v) of the subsection “Taxation of Dividends” above.

(iv) Persons exempt from IRES

Amounts received by Italian resident persons exempt from IRES as distributions out of Equity Reserves, net of any amount already treated as profits as per the rules described in subparagraph (A)(i) above, reduce the holder’s tax basis in the Ferrari common shares correspondingly. Distributions out of Equity Reserves that are in excess of the holders’ tax basis in the common shares in Ferrari not held in connection with a business activity are treated as dividends for tax purposes.

(v) Pension funds and OICR (other than Real Estate AIF)

Amounts received by Italian pension funds governed by Article 17 of Decree 252 as distributions out of Equity Reserves should be taken into account to compute the pension fund’s net annual accrued yield, which is subject to a 20 percent flat tax (imposta sostitutiva). The value of the common shares in Ferrari at the end of the same tax year should also be included in the net annual accrued yield. For a short description of a favorable regime available to pension funds, see subparagraph (A)(vii) of the subsection “Taxation of Dividends” above.

Conversely, any amounts received by OICR that are set up in, and organized under the laws of, Italy and that are subject to regulatory supervision (other than Real Estate AIF) as distributions out of Equity Reserves are not subject to taxation at the level of the OICR.

(vi) Real Estate AIF

Amounts received by Italian Real Estate AIF as distributions out of Equity Reserves are not subject to IRES or IRAP at the level of the Real Estate AIF. However, income realized by Italian Real Estate AIF is attributed pro rata to the Italian resident unitholders / shareholders, irrespective of any actual distribution, on a tax transparency basis if the Italian resident unitholders / shareholders are not institutional investors and hold units / shares in the Real Estate AIF representing more than 5 percent of the Real Estate AIF’s net asset value.

(B) NON-ITALIAN RESIDENT PERSONS

(i) Non-resident persons that do not hold the common shares in Ferrari through a permanent establishment in Italy

For non-Italian resident persons (whether individuals or corporations) without a permanent establishment in Italy to which the common shares in Ferrari are effectively connected, the amounts received as distributions out of Equity Reserves are subject to the same tax regime as applicable to Italian resident individuals not engaged in business activity described in paragraph A(i) of this subsection “Taxation of distributions of Equity Reserves”. Therefore, the amounts received as distributions out of Equity Reserves, net of any amount that has already been treated as profits as per the rules described in subparagraph (A)(i) above, reduce the holder’s tax basis in the Ferrari common shares correspondingly. Distributions out of Equity Reserves that are in excess of the holders’ tax basis in the common shares in Ferrari are treated as dividends for tax purposes.

(ii) Non-resident persons holding the common shares in Ferrari through a permanent establishment in Italy

For non-Italian resident persons that hold the common shares in Ferrari through a permanent establishment in Italy to which the Ferrari common shares are effectively connected, the amounts received as distributions out of Equity Reserves are subject to the same tax regime as applicable to Italian resident companies and other business entities referred to in Article 73(1)(a)-(b) CITA as described in subparagraph (A)(ii) above. If the Equity Reserves distribution relates to common shares in Ferrari that are not connected to a permanent establishment in Italy of the non-resident recipient, reference must be made to subparagraph (B)(i) above.

133

Taxation of Capital Gains

The tax regime summarized in this subsection “Taxation of Capital Gains” applies only to classes of holders of Ferrari common shares and, if applicable, Ferrari special voting shares that are described here below.

(A) ITALIAN RESIDENT PERSONS

(i) Italian resident individuals not engaged in business activity

Capital gains realized by Italian resident individuals upon transfer for consideration of the common shares (as well as of securities or rights whereby common shares may be acquired), other than capital gains realized in connection with a business activity, are subject to a 26 percent substitute tax (“CGT”). The taxpayer may opt for any of the following three tax regimes:

a. Tax return regime (regime della dichiarazione). Under this regime, capital gains and capital losses realized during the tax year must be reported in the income tax return. CGT is computed on capital gains net of capital losses of the same nature and must be paid by the term for paying the balance of the annual income tax. Capital losses in excess of capital gains may be carried forward and offset against capital gains realized in any of the four following tax years. Capital gains realized on the common shares may be offset with capital losses carried forward pursuant to the aforesaid 4-year rule but in case of capital losses realized before June 30, 2014 only 76.92 percent of the capital losses can be used. Even there is not yet official guidance of the Italian tax authorities after the reform enacted by Finance Act 2018, capital losses realized on transfers of Non-Qualified Holdings before 2019 should be allowed to offset capital gains realized on Transfers of Qualified Holdings as of 2019. This regime is the default regime if the taxpayer does not elect into any of the two alternative regimes described in (b) and (c) below.

b. Nondiscretionary investment portfolio regime (risparmio amministrato) (optional). Under this regime, CGT is applied separately on capital gains realized on each transfer of common shares in Ferrari. This regime is allowed subject to (x) the Ferrari common shares being managed or in custody with Italian banks, broker-dealers (società di intermediazione mobiliare) or certain authorized financial intermediaries; and (y) an express election for the nondiscretionary investment portfolio regime being made in writing in due time by the relevant holder. Under this regime, the financial intermediary is responsible for accounting for and paying (on behalf of the taxpayer) CGT in respect of capital gains realized on each transfer of the common shares in Ferrari (as well as in respect of capital gains realized at revocation of the intermediary’s mandate), net of any relevant capital losses. Capital losses may be carried forward and offset against capital gains realized within the same relationship of deposit in the same tax year or in the following tax years up to the fourth. Capital gains realized on the common shares may be offset with capital losses carried forward pursuant to the aforesaid 4-year rule but in case of capital losses realized before June 30, 2014 only 76.92 percent of the capital losses can be used. Even there is not yet official guidance of the Italian tax authorities after the reform enacted by Finance Act 2018, capital losses realized on transfers of Non-Qualified Holdings before 2019 should be allowed to offset capital gains realized on Transfers of Qualified Holdings as of 2019. Under this regime, the holder is not required to report capital gains in the annual income tax return.

c. Discretionary investment portfolio regime (risparmio gestito) (optional). This regime is allowed for holders who have entrusted the management of their financial assets, including the Ferrari common shares, to an authorized intermediary and have elected in writing into this regime. Under this regime, capital gains accrued on the Ferrari common shares are included in the computation of the annual increase in value of the managed assets accrued (even if not realized) at year end, which is subject to CGT. The managing authorized intermediary applies the tax on behalf of the taxpayer. Any decrease in value of the managed assets accrued at year end may be carried forward and offset against any increase in value of the managed assets accrued in any of the four following tax years. Decreases in value of the managed assets may be carried forward and offset against and offset against any subsequent increase pursuant to the aforesaid 4-year rule but in case of decreases in value occurred before June 30, 2014 only 76.92 percent of such decreases can be used. Under this regime, the holder is not required to report capital gains in the annual income tax return. Even if there is not yet official guidance of the Italian tax authorities after the reform enacted by Finance Act 2018, according to a certain interpretation, until January 1, 2023 the election for the discretionary investment portfolio regime would only be available if the Common Shares held represent a Non-Qualified Holding.

Subject to certain conditions (including minimum holding period requirement) and limitations, capital gains on the common shares may be exempt from any income taxation (including from the 26 percent CGT) if the common shares do not represent a Qualified Holding and are included in a long-term savings account (piano di risparmio a lungo termine) that meets

134

all the requirements set forth in Article 1(100-114) of Finance Act 2017 or, for those long-term savings accounts set up as of January 1, 2019, all the requirements set forth in Article 1(100-114) of Finance Act 2017 as amended by Article 1(211-215) of Finance Act 2019.

(ii) Sole Proprietors and business partnerships (Italian “società in nome collettivo,” “società in accomandita semplice” and similar Italian partnerships as referred to in Article 5 CITA)

Capital gains realized from January 1, 2018 by Italian Sole Proprietors and Italian business partnerships (Italian “società in nome collettivo,” “società in accomandita semplice” and similar Italian partnerships as referred to in Article 5 CITA) upon transfer for consideration of the common shares in Ferrari must be fully included in the overall business income and reported in the annual income tax return. Capital losses (or other negative items of income) derived by this class of holders upon transfer for consideration of the common shares in Ferrari would be fully deductible from the holder’s income.

However, if the conditions under a. and b. of subparagraph (A)(iii) below are met, only 49.72 percent (58.14 percent in case of Sole Proprietors) of the capital gain must be included in the overall business income. Capital losses realized on common shares in Ferrari that meet the conditions under a. and b. of subparagraph (A)(iii) below are only partially deductible (similarly to what is provided for the taxation of capital gains).

For the purpose of determining capital gains and capital losses, the holder’s tax basis in the Ferrari common shares is reduced by any write-down that the holder has deducted in previous tax years.

(iii) Companies and other business entities referred to in Article 73(1)(a)-(b) CITA

Capital gains realized by Italian resident companies and other business entities as referred to in Article 73(1)(a)-(b) CITA (including partnerships limited by shares and public and private entities whose sole or primary purpose is carrying out business activity) upon transfer for consideration of the common shares in Ferrari must be fully included in the overall taxable business income subject to IRES in the tax year in which the capital gains are realized or, upon election, may be spread in equal installments over a maximum of five tax years (including the tax year when the capital gain is realized). The election for the installment computation is only available if the common shares in Ferrari have been held for no less than three years and booked as non-current financial assets (immobilizzazioni finanziarie) in the last three financial statements.

However, under Article 87 CITA (participation exemption), capital gains realized upon transfer of common shares in Ferrari are 95 percent exempt if both the following requirements are met:

a. The common shares in Ferrari have been uninterruptedly held as of the first day of the twelfth month prior to the transfer, treating the Ferrari common shares acquired on the most recent date as being transferred first (on a “last in first out” basis); and

b. The common shares in Ferrari have been booked as non-current financial assets in the first financial statements closed during the holding period. In case of holders that draft their financial statements according to IAS / IFRS international accounting standards, the common shares in Ferrari are deemed as non-current financial assets if they are not accounted as financial assets held for trading.

The law lays down certain additional conditions for the exemption to be available. Based on the assumption that Ferrari is a holding company, that its shares are listed on a regulated market, and that pursuant to Article 87(5) CITA its assets are predominantly composed of shareholdings in companies which satisfy the additional conditions set forth by Article 87 CITA in order to enjoy the participation exemption regime (i.e., the companies are not resident in a State with a preferential tax system pursuant to Article 47-bis CITA and carry on a business activity), these additional conditions should be met.

The transfer of shares booked as fixed financial assets and shares booked as inventory must be considered separately with reference to each class. If the requirements for the participation exemption are met, any capital loss realized on the common shares in Ferrari cannot be deducted.

For the purpose of determining capital gains and capital losses, the holder’s tax basis in the Ferrari common shares is reduced by any write-down that the holder has deducted in previous tax years.

Capital losses (as well as negative differences between revenues and costs) relating to shares that do not meet the participation exemption requirements are not relevant (and cannot be deducted) to the extent of the non-taxable amount of dividends (or advance dividend) received by the holder in the 36 (thirty-six) months prior to the transfer (dividend washing rule). This anti-avoidance rule applies to shares acquired in the 36-month period preceding the realization of the capital loss (or the

135

negative difference), provided that requirements under Article 87(1)(c)-(d) CITA (i.e., the company is not resident in a State with a preferential tax system pursuant to Article 47-bis CITA and carries on a business activity) are met. The anti-avoidance rule does not apply to holders that draft their financial statements according to IAS / IFRS international accounting standards under Regulation (EC) No. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and the Council of July 19, 2002. When the amount of the aforesaid capital losses (and negative differences) deriving from a transaction (or a series of transactions) on shares traded on regulated markets is greater than €50,000.00, the taxpayer must, under certain circumstances report the data and the information regarding the transaction to the Italian tax authorities.

Moreover, in case of capital losses greater than €5,000,000.00 deriving from the transfer (or a series of transfers) of shares booked as non-current financial assets, the holder must report the data and the information to the Italian tax authorities. Holders that draft their financial statements according to IAS / IFRS international accounting standards are under no such obligation.

For some types of companies and under certain conditions, capital gains on common shares in Ferrari are also included in the net value of production that is subject to IRAP.

(iv) Non-business entities referred to in Article 73(1)(c) CITA and non-business partnerships (società semplici) referred to in Article 5 CITA

Capital gains realized, outside the scope of a business activity, by Italian resident non-business entities referred to in Article 73(1)(c) CITA (other than OICR) and Italian non-business partnerships as referred to in Article 5 CITA are subject to tax under the same rules as provided for capital gains realized by Italian resident individuals who do not hold the Ferrari common shares in connection with a business activity. For a short description of a favorable regime available to certain social security entities, see subparagraph (A)(v) of the subsection “Taxation of Dividends” above.

(v) Pension funds and OICR (other than Real Estate AIF)

Capital gains on common shares in Ferrari held by Italian pension funds governed by Decree 252 must be taken into account to compute the pension fund’s net annual accrued yield, which is subject to a 20 percent flat tax (imposta sostitutiva). For a short description of a favorable regime available to pension funds, see subparagraph (A)(vii) of the subsection “Taxation of Dividends” above.

Capital gains on common shares in Ferrari held by OICRs that are set up in, and organized under the laws of, Italy and that are subject to regulatory supervision (other than Real Estate AIF) are not subject to tax at the level of the OICR.

(vi) Real Estate AIF

Capital gains on common shares in Ferrari held by Italian Real Estate AIF are not subject to IRES or IRAP at the level of the Real Estate AIF.

(B) NON-ITALIAN RESIDENT PERSONS

(i) Non-resident persons holding the common shares in Ferrari through a permanent establishment in Italy

If non-Italian resident persons hold the common shares in Ferrari through a permanent establishment in Italy to which the common shares in Ferrari are effectively connected, capital gains realized upon disposal of the common shares in Ferrari must be included in the permanent establishment’s income taxable in Italy according to the tax regime as provided for the capital gains realized by Italian resident companies and other business entities as referred to in Article 73(1)(a)-(b) CITA, which is summarized under subparagraph (A)(iii) above. If the common shares in Ferrari are not connected to a permanent establishment in Italy of the non-resident person, reference must be made to subparagraph (B)(ii) below.

If the common shares are held by a non-resident Sole Proprietor through a permanent establishment in Italy to which the common shares are effectively connected, capital gains realized upon disposal of the common shares must be included in the permanent establishment’s income taxable in Italy according to the tax regime as provided for the capital gains realized by Italian Sole Proprietors, which is summarized under subparagraph (A)(ii) above.

(ii) Non-resident persons that do not hold the common shares in Ferrari through a permanent establishment in Italy

NON-QUALIFIED HOLDINGS. Based on the fact that Ferrari common shares are listed on a regulated market, no tax applies in Italy on capital gains realized by non-Italian resident holders without a permanent establishment in Italy upon transfer for consideration of common shares in Ferrari that do not qualify as Transfers of Qualified

136

Holdings, even if the Ferrari common shares are held in Italy and regardless of the provisions set forth in any applicable double tax treaty. In such case, in order to benefit from this exemption, non-Italian resident holders who hold the Ferrari common shares with an Italian authorized financial intermediary and either are subject to the nondiscretionary investment portfolio regime or have elected for the discretionary investment portfolio regime may be required to timely submit to the Italian authorized financial intermediary an affidavit whereby they state that they are not resident in Italy for tax purposes.

QUALIFIED HOLDINGS. Capital gains realized by non-Italian resident holders without a permanent establishment in Italy upon Transfers of Qualified Holdings are subject to tax under the rules as provided for capital gains realized by Italian resident individuals who do not hold the Ferrari common shares in connection with a business activity. However, the provisions of double tax treaties entered into by Italy may apply if more favorable.

Special voting shares

No statutory, judicial or administrative authority directly discusses how the receipt, ownership or disposal of special voting shares should be treated for Italian income tax purposes and as a result, the Italian tax consequences are uncertain. Accordingly, we urge Ferrari shareholders to consult their tax advisors as to the tax consequences of the receipt, ownership and disposal of special voting shares.

Receipt of special voting shares

A shareholder that receives special voting shares issued by Ferrari should in principle not recognize any taxable income upon the receipt of special voting shares. Under a possible interpretation, the issue of special voting shares can be treated as the issue of bonus shares free of charge to the shareholders out of existing available reserves of Ferrari. Such issue should not have any material effect on the allocation of the tax basis of a shareholder between its Ferrari common shares and its Ferrari special voting shares. Because the special voting shares are not transferable and their limited economic rights can be enjoyed only at the time of the liquidation of Ferrari, we believe and intend to take the position that the fair market value of each special voting share is minimal. However, because the determination of the fair market value of the special voting shares is not governed by any guidance that directly addresses such a situation and is unclear, the Italian tax authorities could assert that the value of the special voting shares as determined by us is incorrect.

Ownership of special voting shares

Shareholders of special voting shares should not have to recognize income in respect of any amount transferred to the special voting shares dividend reserve, but not paid out as dividends, in respect of the special voting shares.

Disposition of special voting shares

The tax treatment of a Ferrari shareholder that has its special voting shares redeemed for no consideration after removing its shares from the Loyalty Register is unclear. It is possible that a shareholder should recognize a loss to the extent of the shareholder’s tax basis (if any). The deductibility of such loss depends on individual circumstances and conditions generally required by Italian law. It is also possible that a Ferrari shareholder would not be allowed to recognize a loss upon the redemption of its special voting shares and instead should increase its basis in its Ferrari common shares by an amount equal to the tax basis (if any) in its special voting shares.

Transfer tax

Contracts or other legal instruments relating to the transfer of securities (including the transfer of the Ferrari common shares) are subject to registration tax as follows: (i) notary deeds (atti pubblici) and private deeds with notarized signatures (scritture private authenticate) executed in Italy must mandatorily be registered with the Italian tax authorities and are subject to €200.00 registration tax; and (ii) private deeds (scritture private) are subject to €200.00 registration tax only if they are voluntary filed for registration with the Italian tax authorities or if the so-called “caso d’uso” or “enunciazione” occurs.

Financial Transaction Tax

(i) Transfer of ownership of the Ferrari shares

Article 1(491-500) of Law No. 228 of December 24, 2012 introduced a financial transaction tax (‘‘FTT’’) applicable, among others, to the transfers of the ownership of (i) shares issued by Italian resident corporations, (ii) participating financial instruments (as defined under Article 2346(6) of the Italian Civil Code) issued by Italian resident corporations, and (iii) securities

137

representing equity investments in Italian resident corporations such as American Depositary Receipts and Global Depositary Receipts, regardless of the place of residence of the issuer of such securities and of the place where the contract has been concluded.

The residence of the issuer for the purposes of FTT is the place where the issuer has its registered office (intended as its corporate seat).

Since the corporate seat of Ferrari is not in Italy, transfers of ownership of the shares in Ferrari will not be subject to FTT.

(ii) High-frequency trading

Transactions carried out on the Italian financial markets are subject to a tax on high-frequency trading with regard to financial instruments referred to in subparagraph (i) above “Transfer of ownership of the Ferrari shares.”

Transfer of the Ferrari Shares upon Death or by Gift

Subject to certain exceptions, Italian inheritance and gift tax is generally payable on transfers of assets and rights (including the common shares and the special voting shares in Ferrari) (i) by reason of death or gift by Italian resident persons (or other transfers for no consideration and the creation of liens on such assets for a specific purpose), even if the transferred assets are held outside Italy, and (ii) by reason of death or gift by non-Italian resident persons, but limited to transferred assets held in Italy. Shares in corporations that are resident in Italy for tax purposes (because they have their corporate address or their place of effective management or their main business purpose in Italy for the greater part of the tax year) are deemed to be held in Italy.

Subject to certain exceptions, transfers of assets and rights (including the common shares and the special voting shares in Ferrari) on death or by gift are generally subject to inheritance and gift tax as follows:

a. At a rate of 4 percent in case of transfers made to the spouse or relatives in direct line, on the portion of the global net value of the transferred assets, if any, exceeding, for each beneficiary, €1,000,000.00.

b. At a rate of 6 percent in case of transfers made to relatives up to the fourth degree or relatives-in-law up to the third degree on the entire value of the transferred assets (in the case of transfers to brothers or sisters, the six percent rate is applicable only on the portion of the global net value of the transferred assets, if any, exceeding, for each beneficiary, €100,000.00).

c. At a rate of 8 percent in any other case.

If the transfer is made in favor of persons with severe disabilities, the tax applies on the value exceeding €1,500,000.00 at the rates illustrated above, depending on the type of relationship existing between the deceased or donor and the beneficiary.

As of January 1, 2017, assets and rights (i) segregated in a trust, or (ii) allocated to special funds by entering into a fiduciary contract, or (iii) encumbered by special purpose liens under Article 2645-ter of the Italian Civil Code, in favor of persons with severe disabilities are exempt from the Italian inheritance and gift tax, provided that all the conditions set out in Article 6 of Law No. 112 of June 22, 2016 are met. The exemption from Italian inheritance and gift tax also applies to the re-transfer of assets and rights if the death of the beneficiary occurs before the death of the settlor.

Stamp Duty

Under Article 13(2bis-2ter) of Decree No. 642 of October 26, 1972, a 0.20 percent stamp duty generally applies on communications and reports that Italian financial intermediaries periodically send to their clients in relation to the financial products that are deposited with such intermediaries. Shares are included in the definition of financial products for these purposes. Communications and reports are deemed to be sent at least once a year even if the Italian financial intermediary is under no obligation to either draft or send such communications and reports.

The stamp duty cannot exceed €14,000.00 per year for investors other than individuals.

Based on the wording of the law and the implementing decree issued by the Italian Ministry of Finance on May 24, 2012, the 0.20 percent stamp duty does not apply to communications and reports that the Italian financial intermediaries send to investors who do not qualify as “clients” according to the regulations issued by the Bank of Italy. Communications and reports sent to this type of investors are subject to the ordinary €2.00 stamp duty for each copy.

138

The taxable base of the stamp duty is the market value or - in the lack thereof - the nominal value or the redemption amount of any financial product.

Wealth Tax on Financial Products Held Abroad

Under Article 19 of Decree No. 201 of December 6, 2011, Italian resident individuals holding certain financial products outside of Italian territory (including shares) are required to pay a wealth tax at the rate of 0.20 percent. The wealth tax applies on the market value at the end of the relevant year or - in the lack thereof - on the nominal value or the redemption value of such financial products held outside of Italian territory. Taxpayers may deduct from the Italian wealth tax a tax credit equal to any wealth tax paid in the country where the financial products are held (up to the amount of the Italian wealth tax due).

Certain Reporting Obligations for Italian Resident Holders

Under Law Decree No. 167 of June 28, 1990, individuals, non-business entities and non-business partnerships that are resident in Italy for tax purposes and, during the fiscal year, hold financial assets abroad (including possibly the common shares and the special voting shares in Ferrari) must, in certain circumstances, disclose these financial assets to the Italian tax authorities in section RW of their income tax return (or if the income tax return is not due, in a proper form that must be filed within the same term as prescribed for the annual income tax return), regardless of the value of such assets (save for deposits or bank accounts having an aggregate value not exceeding €15,000.00 throughout the year). The requirement applies also if the persons above, being not the direct holder of the financial assets, are the beneficial owners thereof for the purposes of anti-money laundering legislation.

No disclosure requirements exist for financial assets (including the common shares and the special voting shares in Ferrari) under management or administration entrusted to Italian resident intermediaries (Italian banks, broker-dealers (SIM), fiduciary companies or other professional intermediaries as indicated under Article 1 of Decree No. 167 of June 28, 1990) and for contracts concluded through their intervention, provided that the cash flows and the income derived from such assets and contracts have been subjected to Italian withholding tax or substitute tax by such intermediaries.

Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Due to the nature of our business, we are exposed to a variety of market risks, including foreign currency exchange rate risk and to a lesser extent, interest rate risk.

Our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk arises from the geographic distribution of our shipments, as we generally sell our models in the currencies of the various markets in which we operate, while our industrial activities are all based in Italy, and primarily denominated in Euro.

Our exposure to interest rate risk arises from the need to fund certain activities and the necessity to deploy surplus funds. Changes in market interest rates may have the effect of either increasing or decreasing our net profit/(loss), thereby indirectly affecting the costs and returns of financing and investing transactions.

These risks could significantly affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and for this reason these risks are identified and monitored, in order to detect potential negative effects in advance and take the necessary actions to mitigate them, primarily through our operating and financing activities and if required, through the use of derivative financial instruments.

We have in place various risk management policies, which primarily relate to foreign exchange, interest rate and liquidity risks. Our risk management policies permit derivatives to be used for managing exposures to foreign exchange rates and interest rates. Counterparties to these agreements are major financial institutions. Derivatives cannot be entered into for speculative purposes.

In particular, we have used derivative financial instruments as cash flow hedges for the purpose of fixing the foreign currency exchange rate at which a predetermined proportion of forecasted transactions denominated in foreign currencies will be accounted for.

Accordingly, as a result of applying risk management policies with respect to foreign currency exchange exposure, our results of operations have not been fully exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. However, despite these risk management policies and hedging transactions, sudden adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates could have a significant effect on the Group’s earnings and cash flows.

We also enter into interest rate caps as requested by certain of our securitization agreements.

The following section provides qualitative and quantitative disclosures on the effect that these risks may have. The quantitative data reported in the following section does not have any predictive value, in particular the sensitivity analysis on finance market risks does not reflect the complexity of the market or the reaction which may result from any changes that are assumed to take place.

140

Quantitative information on foreign currency exchange rate risk

We are exposed to risk resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which can affect our earnings and equity. In particular:

• Where a Group company incurs costs in a currency different from that of its revenues, any change in foreign currency exchange rates can affect the operating results of that company. In 2018, the total trade flows exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk amounted to the equivalent of 49 percent of the Group’s turnover (51 percent in 2017).

• The main foreign currency exchange rate to which the Group is exposed is the Euro/U.S. Dollar for sales in U.S. Dollar in the United States and other markets where the U.S. Dollar is the reference currency. In 2018, the value of commercial activity exposed to fluctuations in the Euro/U.S. Dollar exchange rate accounted for approximately 57 percent (62 percent in 2017) of the total currency risk from commercial activity. In 2018, the commercial activity exposed to the Euro/Pound Sterling exchange rate exceeded 10 percent (as in 2017) of the total currency risk from commercial activity. Other significant exposures included the exchange rate between the Euro and the following currencies: Japanese Yen, Chinese Renminbi, Swiss Franc, Canadian Dollar and Australian Dollar. None of these exposures, taken individually, exceeded 10 percent of the Group’s total foreign currency exchange rate exposure for commercial activity in 2018. It is the Group’s policy to use derivative financial instruments to hedge up to 90 percent of certain exposures to foreign currency exchange risk for up to twelve months.

• Several subsidiaries are located in countries that are outside the Eurozone, in particular the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Japan, Australia and Singapore. As the Group’s reporting currency is the Euro, the income statements of those companies are converted into Euro using the average exchange rate for the period and, even if revenues and margins are unchanged in local currency, changes in exchange rates can impact the amount of revenues, costs and profit as restated in Euro.

• The amount of assets and liabilities of consolidated companies that report in a currency other than the Euro may vary from period to period as a result of changes in exchange rates. The effects of these changes are recognized directly in equity as a component of other comprehensive income/(loss) under gains/(losses) from currency translation differences.

The Group monitors its principal exposure to conversion exchange risk, although there was no specific hedging in this respect at the reporting date.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on reporting monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the period or in previous financial statements, are recognized in the consolidated income statement within the net financial income/(expenses) line item or as cost of sales for charges arising from financial services companies.

The impact of foreign currency exchange rate differences recorded within financial income/(expenses) for the year ended December 31, 2018, except for those arising on financial instruments measured at fair value, amounted to net losses of €13,293 thousand (net losses of €18,059 thousand and net gains €8,335 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively).

The impact of foreign currency exchange rate differences arising from financial services activities recognized under cost of sales, except for those arising on financial instruments measured at fair value, amounted to net gains of €58,808 thousand in 2016. Following the deconsolidation of FFS GmbH in November 2016, all of the Group’s financial services activities are conducted in the functional currency of the related financial services companies, therefore, such impact in 2018 and 2017 was nil.

Except as noted above, there have been no substantial changes in 2018 in the nature or structure of exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk or in the Group’s hedging policies.

The potential decrease in fair value of derivative financial instruments held by the Group at December 31, 2018 to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risk, which would arise in the case of a hypothetical, immediate and adverse change of 10 percent in the exchange rates of the major foreign currencies with the Euro, would be approximately €106,400 thousand (€45,439 thousand at December 31, 2017). Receivables, payables and future trade flows for which hedges have been put in place

141

were not included in the analysis. It is reasonable to assume that changes in foreign currency exchange rates will produce the opposite effect, of an equal or greater amount, on the underlying transactions that have been hedged.

Quantitative information on interest rate risk

Our exposure to interest rate risk, though less significant, arises from the need to fund financial services activities and the necessity to deploy surplus funds. Changes in market interest rates may have the effect of either increasing or decreasing our net profit/(loss), thereby indirectly affecting the costs and returns of financing and investing transactions.

Our most significant floating rate financial assets at December 31, 2018 were cash and cash equivalents and certain receivables from financing activities (related to client and dealer financing), while 37 percent of our gross debt bears floating rates of interest. At December 31, 2018, a decrease of 10 basis points in interest rates on floating rate financial assets and debt, with all other variables held constant, would have resulted in a decrease in profit before taxes of €251 thousand on an annual basis (a decrease of €225 thousand at December 31, 2017). The analysis is based on the assumption that floating rate financial assets and debt which expires during the projected 12-month period will be renewed or reinvested in similar instruments, bearing the hypothetical short-term interest rates.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision, and with the participation, of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2018 pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with IFRS.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation in accordance with IFRS.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, using the criteria set forth in the “Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on that assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2018, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has issued an audit report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. That report is included herein.

Changes in Internal Control

No change to our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the year ended December 31, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Ferrari N.V.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited Ferrari N.V.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Ferrari N.V. (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated statements of financial position of Ferrari N.V. as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated income statements, statements of comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes, and our report dated February 26, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

145

Annual General Meeting of Shareholders ( the “2017 AGM”), which delegated to the Board of Directors authority to purchase common shares of Ferrari from time to time in the 18 months following the 2017 AGM, up to a maximum of 10% of Ferrari’s issued common shares as of the date of the 2017 AGM, at a price not more than 10% above or not more than 10% below the average of the closing price on the NYSE and/or MTA for the five business days prior to the date of the purchase. The repurchase authority, originally set to expire on October 13, 2018, was renewed by the resolution of Ferrari’s Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of April 13, 2018 (the “2018 AGM”), which extended the authorization to the Board of Directors until October 12, 2019    .

Item 16G. Corporate Governance

Ferrari N.V. is a company organized under the laws of The Netherlands and qualifies as a foreign private issuer under

146

the NYSE listing standards. In accordance with the NYSE corporate governance rules, as a foreign private issuer we are permitted to follow home-country practice in some circumstances in lieu of the provisions of the corporate governance rules contained in Section 303A of the NYSE Listed Company Manual that are applicable to U.S. companies. In addition, we must disclose any significant ways in which our corporate governance practices differ from those followed by U.S. companies listed on the NYSE.

Both the Dutch and NYSE corporate governance regimes were adopted with the goal of fostering trust and confidence in the honesty, integrity and transparency of how business is conducted at and by public companies. Because these corporate governance regimes are based on the same principles, they are similar in many respects. However, certain differences exist between Dutch and NYSE corporate governance rules, as summarized below. We believe that our corporate governance practices and guidelines are consistent, in principle, with those required of U.S. companies listed on the NYSE. In addition, we endorse the principles and Best Practice Provisions of the Dutch Corporate Governance Code, or the “Dutch Code”. In contrast to NYSE rules applicable to U.S. companies, the Dutch Code is based on the “comply or explain” principle. As a result, deviations from the best practice provisions of the Dutch Code are allowed, as long as they are explained in our annual report.

The Dutch Corporate Governance Code has been revised in December 2016 and the revised Dutch Corporate Governance Code entered into force on January 1, 2018, being applicable retroactively as from the financial year 2017. Consequently, Ferrari has reported in 2018 regarding its application of the revised Dutch Corporate Governance Code over financial year 2017.

The discussion below summarizes the significant differences between our corporate governance practices and the NYSE standards applicable to U.S. companies, as well as certain ways in which our governance practices deviate from those suggested in the Dutch Code.

Dutch legal requirements concerning director independence differ in certain respects from the rules applicable to U.S. companies listed on the NYSE. While under most circumstances both regimes require that a majority of board members be “independent,” the definition of this term under the Dutch Code differs from the definition used under the NYSE corporate governance standards. In some cases the Dutch requirement is more stringent, such as by requiring a longer “look- back” period (five years) for former executive directors and employees and by requiring that in certain circumstances only one non-executive board member may be not “independent” within the meaning of the Dutch Code. The Dutch Code recommends, specifically for one-tier governance structures, that a majority of the members of the board be non-executive and independent. Currently, a majority of our Board is “independent” under the NYSE definition (8 of the 12 members) and the Dutch Code (7 of the 12 members). We deviate from the Dutch Code’s best practice provision regarding the maximum number (one) of non-executive directors that may be not independent due to being affiliated with a shareholder holding more than 10% of the shares in Ferrari, or being a relative of such a person. Since our non-executive board member Mr. John Elkann also serves as chairman and chief executive officer of Exor, Mr John Elkann is affiliated with a shareholder holding more than 10% of the shares in the Company. Given the family ties between Mr. Lapo Elkann and Mr. John Elkann, the Company has two non-executive board members affiliated with a shareholder holding more than 10% of the shares in Ferrari. We believe however that this deviation from the Dutch Code is appropriate in light of the valuable contributions to the Board of Directors in light of Mr. John Elkann’s and Mr. Lapo Elkann’s knowledge of the automotive and luxury industries, as well as the Company’s business. Finally, pursuant to Dutch law, persons may not be appointed as non-executive directors of Ferrari if such persons are non-executive director, member of the supervisory board or other similar bodies for five or more (Dutch) companies of a certain size and such persons cannot be appointed as executive directors of Ferrari if such persons are non-executive director at more than two other (Dutch) companies of a certain size or if such person is the chairperson of the board of supervisors or the one tier board of another (Dutch) company of a certain size.

The NYSE requires that, when an audit committee member of a U.S. domestic listed company serves on four or more audit committees of public companies, the listed company should disclose (either on its website or in its annual proxy statement or annual report on Form 10-K) that the board of directors has determined that this simultaneous service would not impair the director’s service to the listed company. As a foreign private issuer we do not have to comply with this requirement. Dutch law does not require the Company to make such a determination.

NYSE rules require a U.S. listed company to have a compensation committee and a nominating/corporate governance committee composed entirely of independent directors. As a foreign private issuer, we do not have to comply with this requirement, although we do have a Compensation Committee and a Governance and Sustainability Committee. Our Compensation Committee Charter states that a maximum of one member of the Compensation Committee may be non-independent according to the Dutch Code. All three of the current members of the Compensation Committee are independent under the NYSE rules and two of the members are independent under the Dutch Code. Our Governance and Sustainability Committee Charter states that the Committee shall be comprised of at least three directors, elected by the Board of Directors, which shall also appoint one of them as chairperson

147

of the Governance and Sustainability Committee, or Chairperson. Of the directors elected to serve on the Committee, at least half must be independent under the Dutch Code and no more than one may be an executive director. This is a deviation from the Dutch Code which recommends that only non-executive directors serve on board committees. Although we are not currently making use of this possibility, we allow for an executive Director to serve on the Governance and Sustainability Committee, because we believe that the Committee’s broad duties benefit from the presence of an executive board member. The position of Mr. John Elkann,     being non-independent, in this committee inter alia follows from the duties of the governance and sustainability committee, which are more extensive than the duties of a selection and appointment committee. These duties warrant participation of Mr. John Elkann, who brings valuable contributions to this committee in light of his knowledge of the automotive and luxury industries, as well as the Company’s business. Current composition of our Governance and Sustainability Committee comprises one non-independent non-executive director, who is the Chairperson, and two other directors who are considered independent under Dutch Corporate Governance Code. A majority of the members of the Governance and Sustainability Committee is independent under the Dutch Code and the NYSE rules.

In contrast to NYSE rules applicable to U.S. companies, which require that external auditors be appointed by the Audit Committee, the general rule under Dutch law is that external auditors are appointed by the general meeting of shareholders. In accordance with the requirements of Dutch law, the appointment and removal of our independent registered public accounting firm must be resolved upon by the general meeting of shareholders. Our Audit Committee is responsible for recommending to the shareholders the appointment and compensation of the independent registered public accounting firm and, inter alia, oversees and evaluates the work of our independent registered public accounting firm.

Under NYSE listing standards, shareholders of U.S. companies must be given the opportunity to vote on all equity compensation plans and to approve material revisions to those plans, with limited exceptions set forth in the NYSE rules. As a foreign private issuer we are permitted to follow our home country laws regarding shareholder approval of compensation plans, and, under Dutch law, such approval from shareholders is not required for equity compensation plans for employees other than the members of the Board of Directors, provided that the authority to grant equity rights has been delegated by the general meeting of shareholders to the Board of Directors. For equity compensation plans for members of the Board of Directors and/or in the event that the authority to issue shares and/or rights to subscribe for shares has not been delegated to the Board of Directors, approval of the general meeting of shareholders is required.

While NYSE rules do not require listed companies to have shareholders approve or declare dividends, the Dutch Code requires that a dividend distribution be a separate agenda item in the general meeting of shareholders, in which the annual accounts are adopted. In our case, Article 23 of our Articles of Association provides that annual dividends must be resolved upon by our general meeting of shareholders. For a discussion of our dividend policy, see“Item 8.A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information—Dividend Policy.”

In accordance with the corporate governance rules of the NYSE applicable to foreign private issuers, we also disclose these differences between our corporate governance practices and those required of domestic companies by the NYSE listing standards on our website at www.ferrari.com.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Ferrari N.V.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Ferrari N.V. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated income statements, statements of comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, as well as International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated February 26, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2015.

These consolidated financial statements of Ferrari N.V. were authorized for issuance on February 26, 2019.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”), as well as IFRS as adopted by the European Union. There is no effect on these consolidated financial statements resulting from differences between IFRS as issued by the IASB and IFRS as adopted by the European Union. The designation IFRS also includes International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) as well as all the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC” and “SIC”).

The consolidated financial statements are prepared under the historical cost method, modified as required for the measurement of certain financial instruments, as well as on a going concern basis.

The Group’s presentation currency is the Euro, which is also the functional currency of the Company, and unless otherwise stated information is presented in thousands of Euro.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Format of the financial statements

The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of financial position, consolidated statement of cash flows, consolidated statement of changes in equity and notes thereto, (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”).

For presentation of the consolidated income statement, the Group uses a classification based on the function of expenses, as it is more representative of the format used for internal reporting and management purposes and is consistent with international practice.

In the consolidated income statement, the Group also presents a subtotal for Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT). EBIT distinguishes between the profit before taxes arising from operating items and those arising from financing activities. EBIT is the primary measure used by the Group’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to assess performance.

For the consolidated statement of financial position, a mixed format has been selected to present current and non-current assets and liabilities, as permitted by IAS 1 paragraph 60. More specifically, the Consolidated Financial Statements include both industrial and financial services activities. Receivables from financing activities are included in current assets as the investments will be realized in their normal operating cycle. The funding for financial services activities is obtained through securitization programs and funding from certain of the Group’s operating companies. This financial service structure within the Group does

not allow the separation of financial liabilities funding the financial services operations (whose assets are reported within current assets) and those funding the industrial operations. Presentation of financial liabilities as current or non-current based on their date of maturity would not facilitate a meaningful comparison with financial assets, which are categorized on the basis of their normal operating cycle. Disclosure as to the due date of the debt is provided in Note 25.

The consolidated statement of cash flows is presented using the indirect method.

New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2018

The following new standards and amendments that are applicable from January 1, 2018 were adopted by the Group for the preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 applies to all revenues arising from contracts with customers (unless those contracts are in the scope of other standards) and replaces IAS 18 - Revenue, IAS 11 - Construction Contracts and related interpretations. The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard establishes a five step model to recognize revenue in accordance with this core principle. The Group adopted IFRS 15 and related amendments using the modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initial adoption (if any) recognized at the date of initial application of January 1, 2018. The Group analyzed each of its revenue streams by applying the five-step model and concluded that its accounting for revenue under IFRS 15 did not result in the recognition of a cumulative adjustment to opening retained earnings under the modified retrospective approach, nor did it have a material effect on the Group’s financial position or results of operations. The Group’s updated accounting policy for revenue recognition is provided further below.

IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments

The Group adopted IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments, which includes a logical approach for:

• the classification and measurement of financial instruments driven by cash flow characteristics and the business model in which an asset is held;

• a single “expected loss” impairment model for financial assets, and

• a substantially reformed approach for hedge accounting.

The Group analyzed each of its classes of financial assets, financial liabilities and derivative instruments and concluded that its accounting for financial instruments under IFRS 9 does not result in material changes compared to its accounting for financial instruments under IAS 39, therefore, there was no impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements upon initial adoption of the standard and related amendments. The Group’s updated accounting policy for financial instruments is provided further below.

Amendments to IFRS 2 - Share-Based Payment

The Group adopted Amendments to IFRS 2 - Share-Based Payment. The amendments provide requirements on the accounting for (i) the effects of vesting and non-vesting conditions on the measurement of cash-settled share-based payments; (ii) share-based payment transactions with a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations; and (iii) a modification to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment that changes the classification of the transaction from cash-settled to equity-settled. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 with early application permitted. The Group has applied the amendments to share-based payment transactions under the Group’s equity incentive plan that contains a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations, resulting in such transactions being classified in their entirety as equity-settled. There were no other effects from the adoption of these amendments.

IFRIC Interpretation 22 - Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration

The Group adopted IFRIC Interpretation 22 - Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration. The interpretation addresses the exchange rate to use in transactions that involve advance consideration paid or received in a foreign currency. The interpretation is effective on or after January 1, 2018. There was no effect from the adoption of this interpretation.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 Cycle

The Group adopted Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 Cycle. The improvements have amended two standards with effective date of January 1, 2018: i) IFRS 1 - First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards and ii) IAS 28 - Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. The amendments clarify, correct or remove redundant wording in the related IFRS Standards. 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 2019 or subsequent years are listed below:

IFRS 16 - Leases

In January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16 - Leases which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract and replaces the previous leases standard, IAS 17 - Leases. IFRS 16, which is not applicable to service contracts, but only applicable to leases or lease components of a contract, defines a lease as a contract that conveys to the customer (lessee) the right to use an asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases for the lessee as either operating leases or finance leases as required by IAS 17 and, instead, introduces a single lessee accounting model whereby a lessee is required to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term that is greater than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value, and to recognize depreciation of lease assets separately from interest on lease liabilities in the income statement. As IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17, a lessor will continue to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases and to account for those two types of leases differently.

The Group will apply IFRS 16 from its mandatory adoption date of January 1, 2019. The Group intends to apply the simplified transition approach and not restate comparative amounts for the year prior to adoption. Upon adoption, right-of-use assets are measured at the amount of the related lease liabilities, adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease expenses. The Group elected to use the exemptions permitted by the standard on lease contracts for which the lease terms ends within 12 months of the date of initial application, and lease contracts for which the underlying asset is of low value.

The main contracts of the Group within the scope of IFRS 16 relate to Ferrari stores and industrial equipment. As of January 1, 2019, after considering the exemptions mentioned above, the Group has non-cancellable operating lease commitments of approximately €72 million. Of these commitments, the Group expects to recognize right-of-use assets (after adjustments for prepayments and accrued lease payments recognized as at December 31, 2018) and related lease liabilities of €61 million. The Group expect no significant impact from the application of the new standard on net profit and cash flow from operating activities. Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the fixed or in substance fixed lease payments over the lease term that have not been paid at the date of adoption. The lease term includes both the non-cancellable periods for which the Group has the right to use the underlying assets and also any renewal periods if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise the related renewal option. The discount rate was determined taking into consideration country risk, currency, lease term and the Group’s credit spread. Lease liabilities do not include any non-lease components that may be included in the related contracts.

The Group does not expect to recognize any deferred tax assets or liabilities in respect of temporary differences arising on initial recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as the recognition does not affect accounting profit or taxable profit. No significant impact is expected on the financial statements for i) the Group’s lease agreements previously classified as finance leases under IAS 17 and ii) the Group’s activities as lessor.

Other amendments and interpretations not yet effective

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. IFRS 17 is effective on or after January 1, 2021 with early adoption allowed if IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments are also applied. The Group does not expect any impact from the adoption of this standard.

In June 2017 the IASB issued IFRIC Interpretation 23 - Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments which provides requirements regarding how to reflect uncertainties in accounting for income taxes. The interpretation is effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of this interpretation.

In October 2017 the IASB issued Amendments to IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments that allow, under certain conditions, for a prepayable financial asset with negative compensation payments to be measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income. The amendments also contain a clarification relating to the accounting for a modification or exchange of a financial liability measured at amortized cost that does not result in the derecognition of the financial liability. The amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect any impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In October 2017 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 28 - Long Term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures to clarify that an entity applies IFRS 9 to long-term interests in an associate or joint venture that form part of the net investment in the associate or joint venture but to which the equity method is not applied. The amendment is effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect a material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In December 2017 the IASB issued Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2015 - 2017 Cycle, which has amendments to the following four Standards: IFRS 3 - Business Combinations, in relation to obtaining control of a business which was previously accounted for as an interest in a joint operation, IFRS 11- Joint Arrangements, in relation to obtaining joint control of a business which was previously accounted for as a joint operation, IAS 12 - Income Taxes, clarifying the treatment of taxes in relation to dividend payments and IAS 23 - Borrowing Costs, clarifying the treatment of borrowings which were previously capitalized when the related asset is ready for its intended use or sale. The amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In February 2018 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 19 - Employee Benefits. When there is a change to a defined benefit plan (an amendment, curtailment or settlement) the amendments require that a company use the updated assumptions from the remeasurement of a net defined benefit liability or asset to determine current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the reporting period after the change to the plan. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect a material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In October 2018 the IASB issued narrow scope amendments to IFRS 3 - Business Combinations to improve the definition of a business. The amendments aim to help companies determine whether an acquisition made is of a business or a group of assets. The amended definition emphasizes that the output of a business is to provide goods and services to customers, whereas the previous definition focused on returns in the form of dividends, lower costs or other economic benefits to investors and others. In addition to amending the definition of a business, supplementary guidance is provided. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2020. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In October 2018 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors to clarify the definition of ‘material’, as well as how materiality should be applied by including in the definition guidance that is included elsewhere in IFRS standards. In addition, the explanations accompanying the definition have been improved and the amendments ensure that the definition of material is consistent across all IFRS standards. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2020. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

Review of the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting

In March 2018 the IASB revised the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting, effective immediately for the IASB and the IFRS Interpretations Committee when setting future standards, and effective for annual reporting periods on or

after January 1, 2020 for companies that use the Conceptual Framework to develop accounting policies when no IFRS Standard applies to a particular transaction, with early application permitted. Key changes include (i) increasing the prominence of stewardship in the objective of financial reporting; (ii)reinstating prudence as a component of neutrality, defined as the exercise of caution when making judgements under conditions of uncertainty; (iii)defining a reporting entity; (iv)revising the definitions of an asset and a liability; (v)removing the probability threshold for recognition, and adding guidance on derecognition; (vi)adding guidance on the information provided by different measurement bases, and explaining factors to consider when selecting a measurement basis; and (vii) stating that profit or loss is the primary performance indicator and income and expenses in other comprehensive income should be recycled where the relevance or faithful representation of the financial statements would be enhanced. The Group does not expect a material impact from the adoption of the revised Conception Framework for Financial Reporting.

Basis of consolidation

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities over which the Group has control. Control is achieved when the Group has power over the investee, when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor’s returns. Subsidiaries are consolidated on a line by line basis from the date on which the Group achieves control. The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

The Group recognizes any non-controlling interests (“NCI”) in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s share of the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Net profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income/(loss) are attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income/(loss) of subsidiaries is attributed to owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

All significant intra-group balances and transactions and any unrealized gains and losses arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Subsidiaries are deconsolidated from the date when control ceases. When the Group ceases to have control over a subsidiary, it derecognizes the assets (including any goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary at their carrying amounts, derecognizes the carrying amount of non-controlling interests in the former subsidiary and recognizes the fair value of any consideration received from the transaction. Any retained interest in the former subsidiary is then remeasured to its fair value.

In 2016 the Group sold a majority stake in Ferrari Financial Services GmbH. From such date, the Group’s remaining interest has been remeasured at fair value and accounted for using the equity method.

Interests in associates

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but without having control or joint control over those policies. Associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting from the date significant influence is obtained.

Under the equity method, the investments are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group’s share of the profit/(loss) and other comprehensive income/(loss) of the investee. The Group’s share of the investee’s profit/(loss) is recognized in the consolidated income statement. Distributions received from an investee reduce the carrying amount of the investment. Post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income/(loss) are recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss) with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying amount of the investment.

Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associate. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

When the Group’s share of the losses of an associate exceeds the Group’s interest in that associate, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date the investment ceases to be an associate or when it is classified as available-for-sale.

Interests in joint operations

A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

When the Group undertakes its activities under joint operations, it recognizes in relation to its interest in the joint operation: (i) its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly, (ii) its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly, (iii) its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation, (iv) its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation, and (v) its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly.

Foreign currency transactions

The functional currency of the Group’s entities is the currency of their primary economic environment. In individual companies, transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the foreign currency exchange rate prevailing at that date. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on reporting monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the period or in previous financial statements are recognized in the consolidated income statement.

Consolidation of foreign entities

All assets and liabilities of foreign consolidated companies with a functional currency other than the Euro are translated using the closing rates at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position. Income and expenses are translated into Euro at the average foreign currency exchange rate for the period. Translation differences resulting from the application of this method are classified as currency translation differences within other comprehensive income/(loss) until the disposal of the investment. Average foreign currency exchange rates for the period are used to translate the cash flows of foreign subsidiaries in preparing the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Goodwill, assets acquired and liabilities assumed arising from the acquisition of entities with a functional currency other than the Euro are recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements in the functional currency and translated at the foreign currency exchange rate at the acquisition date. These balances are translated at subsequent balance sheet dates at the relevant foreign currency exchange rate.

Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Development costs

Development costs for car project production and related components, engines and systems are recognized as an asset if, and only if, both of the following conditions under IAS 38 - Intangible Assets are met: that development costs can be measured reliably and that the technical feasibility of the product, volumes and pricing support the view that the development expenditure will generate future economic benefits. Capitalized development costs include all direct and indirect costs that may be directly attributed to the development process.

Capitalized development costs are amortized on a straight-line basis from the start of production over the estimated lifecycle of the model and the useful life of the components (generally between four and eight years). All other research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

In particular the Group incurs significant research and development costs through the Formula 1 racing activities. These costs are considered fundamental to the development of the sports and street car models and prototypes. The model for the Formula 1 racing activities continually evolves and as such these costs are expensed as incurred.

Patents, concessions and licenses

Separately acquired patents, concessions and licenses are initially recognized at cost. Patents, concessions and licenses acquired in a business combination are initially recognized at fair value. Patents, concessions and licenses are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful economic lives, which is generally between three and five years.

Other intangible assets

Other intangible assets mainly relate to the registration of trademarks and have been recognized in accordance with IAS 38 - Intangible Assets, where it is probable that the use of the asset will generate future economic benefits for the Group and where the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Other intangible assets are measured at cost less any impairment losses and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated life, which is generally between three and five years.

Property, plant and equipment

Cost

Property, plant and equipment is initially recognized at cost which comprises the purchase price, any costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, capitalized borrowing costs and any initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. Self-constructed assets are initially recognized at production cost. Subsequent expenditures and the cost of replacing parts of an asset are capitalized only if they increase the future economic benefits embodied in that asset. All other expenditures are expensed as incurred. When such replacement costs are capitalized, the carrying amount of the parts that are replaced is recognized as a loss in the period of replacement in the consolidated income statement.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:

	Depreciation rates
Industrial buildings	3% - 20%
Plant, machinery and equipment	5% - 22%
Other assets	12% - 25%

Land is not depreciated.

If the asset being depreciated consists of separately identifiable components whose useful lives differ from that of the other parts making up the asset, depreciation is charged separately for each of its component parts through application of the ‘component approach’.

Borrowing costs

General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use.

All other borrowing costs are expensed in net financial expenses if related to the Group’s industrial activities or cost of sales if related to the Group’s financial services activities in the consolidated income statement, as incurred.

Impairment of assets

The Group continuously monitors its operations to assess whether there is any indication that its intangible assets (including development costs) and its property, plant and equipment may be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently, if there is an indication that an asset may be impaired.

If indications of impairment are present, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The recoverable amount is determined for the individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case the asset is tested as part of the cash-generating unit (“CGU”) to which the asset belongs. A CGU is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. In assessing the value in use of an asset or CGU, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. An impairment loss is recognized if the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount.

Where an impairment loss for assets other than goodwill, subsequently no longer exists or has decreased, the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not in excess of the carrying amount that would have been recorded had no impairment loss been recognized. The reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated income statement immediately.

Financial instruments

Presentation

Current financial assets include trade receivables, receivables from financing activities, derivative financial instruments, other current financial assets and cash and cash equivalents.

Investments and other financial assets include investments accounted for using the equity method as well as other securities and non-current financial assets.

Financial liabilities include debt (which primarily includes bonds, securitizations and borrowings from banks), trade payables and other financial liabilities, which mainly include derivative financial instruments.

Measurement

Financial assets, other than investments accounted for using the equity method, and financial liabilities are measured in accordance with IFRS 9.

Except for investments accounted for using the equity method, the Group initially measures financial assets at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.

Equity instruments held by the Group are recognized at fair value through profit or loss. When market prices are not directly available, the fair value is measured using appropriate valuation techniques (e.g. discounted cash flow analysis based on market information available at the balance sheet date). As permitted by IFRS 9, equity investments for which there is no quoted market price in an active market and there is insufficient financial information in order to determine fair value may be measured at cost as an estimate of fair value.

Trade receivables and receivables from financing activities are originated in the ordinary course of business and held within a business model with the objective to hold the receivables in order to collect contractual cash flows that meet the ‘solely payments of principal and interest’ criterion under IFRS 9, therefore they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Receivables with maturities greater than one year are discounted to present value. Assessments are made regularly as to whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets may be impaired. Under IFRS 9, a forward-looking expected credit loss model must be applied when assessing impairment. In making impairment assessments, the Group applies the standard simplified approach to estimate the lifetime expected credit losses and considers its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the nature of the Group’s receivables and economic environment. If any such evidence exists, an impairment loss is recognized within financial expenses.

Financial liabilities, with the exception of derivative financial instruments, are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments are used for economic hedging purposes only in order to reduce currency risks. Derivative financial instruments qualify for hedge accounting only when at the inception of the hedge there is formal designation and documentation of the hedging relationship, the hedge is expected to be highly effective, its effectiveness can be reliably measured and it is highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which it is designated.

All derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value.

When derivative financial instruments qualify for hedge accounting, the following accounting treatments apply:

Cash flow hedges - Where a derivative financial instrument is designated as a hedge of the exposure to variability in future cash flows of a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecasted transaction and could affect the consolidated income statement, the effective portion of any gain or loss on the derivative financial instrument is recognized directly in other comprehensive income/(loss). The cumulative gain or loss is reclassified from other comprehensive income/(loss) to the consolidated income statement at the same time as the economic effect arising

F-16

Ferrari N.V.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

from the hedged item affects the consolidated income statement. The gain or loss associated with a hedge or part of a hedge that has become ineffective is recognized in the consolidated income statement immediately within net financial income/expenses. When a hedging instrument or hedge relationship is terminated but the hedged transaction is still expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss realized to the point of termination remains in other comprehensive income/(loss) and is recognized in the consolidated income statement at the same time as the underlying transaction occurs. If the hedged transaction is no longer probable, the cumulative unrealized gain or loss held in other comprehensive income/(loss) is recognized in the consolidated income statement immediately.

The Group does not use fair value hedges or hedges of a net investment.

If hedge accounting cannot be applied, the gains or losses from the fair value measurement of derivative financial instruments are recognized immediately within financial expenses.

Transfers of financial assets

The Group sells certain of its receivables from financing activities under securitization programs. Securitization transactions involve the sale of a financial receivables portfolio to a special purpose vehicle, which in turn finances the purchase of such financial receivables by issuing asset-backed securities in the form of notes whose repayment of principal and interest depends on the cash flows generated by the related financial receivables. The receivables sold as part of securitization programs are still consolidated until collection from the customer.

The Group may also sell certain of its trade receivables through factoring transactions without recourse. The Group derecognizes the financial assets when, and only when, the contractual rights and risks to the cash flows arising from the related financial assets are no longer held or the Group has transferred the financial assets. In the case of a transfer of financial assets, if the Group transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets, it derecognizes such assets and separately recognizes as assets or liabilities any rights and obligations created or retained in the transfer. On derecognition of financial assets, the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and the consideration received or receivable for the transfer of the assets is recognized within cost of sales in the consolidated income statement.

Trade receivables

Trade receivables are amounts due from clients for goods sold or services provided in the ordinary course of business. Trade receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, less any provision for allowances.

Inventories

Inventories of raw materials, semi-finished products and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, cost being determined on a first-in first-out (FIFO) basis. The measurement of inventories includes the direct costs of materials, labor and indirect costs (variable and fixed). Purchase costs include ancillary costs. Prototypes are recognized at their estimated realizable value, if lower than production cost. Provision is made for obsolete and slow-moving raw materials, finished goods, spare parts and other supplies based on their expected future use and realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs for sale and distribution.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Employee benefits

Defined contribution plans

Costs arising from defined contribution plans are expensed as incurred.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

Defined benefit plans

The Group’s net obligations are determined separately for each plan by estimating the present value of future benefits that employees have earned in the current and prior periods, and deducting the fair value of any plan assets. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is measured using actuarial techniques and actuarial assumptions that are unbiased and mutually compatible and attributes benefits to periods in which the obligation to provide post-employment benefits arise by using the Projected Unit Credit Method.

The components of the defined benefit cost are recognized as follows:

• the service costs are recognized in the consolidated income statement by function and presented in the relevant line items (cost of sales, selling, general and administrative costs, research and development costs, etc.);

• the net interest on the defined benefit liability is recognized in the consolidated income statement as net financial income /(expenses), and is determined by multiplying the net liability/(asset) by the discount rate used to discount obligations taking into account the effect of contributions and benefit payments made during the year; and

• the remeasurement components of the net obligations, which comprise actuarial gains and losses and any change in the effect of the asset ceiling are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income/(loss). These remeasurement components are not reclassified in the consolidated income statement in a subsequent period.

Other long-term employee benefits

The Group’s obligations represent the present value of future benefits that employees have earned in return for their service during the current and prior periods. Remeasurement components on other long-term employee benefits are recognized in the consolidated income statement in the period in which they arise.

Share-based compensation

The Group has implemented an equity incentive plan that provides for the granting of share-based compensation to the Chief Executive Officer, all other members of the Senior Management Team (“SMT”) and key leaders. The equity incentive plan is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 2 - Share-based Payment, which requires the Company to recognize share-based compensation expense based on fair value of awards granted. Compensation expense for the equity-settled awards containing market performance conditions is measured at the grant date fair value of the award using the Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected volatility of the Company’s common stock, the dividend yield, interest rates and a correlation coefficient between the common stock and the relevant market index. The fair value of the awards which are conditional only on a recipient’s continued service to the Company is measured using the share price at the grant date adjusted for the present value of future distributions which employees will not receive during the vesting period.

Share-based compensation expense relating to the equity incentive plan is recognized over the service period within selling, general and administrative costs or cost of sales in the consolidated income statement depending on the function of the employee, with an offsetting increase to equity.

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation, legal or constructive, as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made.

Warranty and recall campaigns provision

All cars are sold with warranty coverage. The warranty coverage generally applies to defects that may become apparent within a certain period from the purchase of the car.

F-18

Ferrari N.V.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

The warranty provision is recognized at the time of the sale of the car, based on the present value of management’s estimate of the expected cost to fulfill the obligations over the contractual warranty period. Estimates are principally based on the Group’s historical claims or costs experience and the cost of parts and services to be incurred in the activities. The costs related to these provisions are recognized within cost of sales at the time when they are probable and reasonably estimable.

See “Use of estimates” below for further details.

Deferred income

Deferred income relates to amounts received by the Group under various agreements, which are reliant on the future performance of a service or other act of the Group. Deferred income is recognized as net revenues when the Group has fulfilled its obligations under the terms of the various agreements.

Range models (models belonging to the Ferrari product portfolio, excluding special series, limited edition and one-off (fuori serie) models) are sold with a scheduled maintenance program to ensure that the cars are maintained to the highest standards to meet the Group’s strict requirements for performance and safety. Amounts attributable to the maintenance program are not recognized as income immediately, but are deferred over the maintenance program term. The amount of the deferred income related to this program, is based on the estimated fair value of the service to be provided.

Advances

Advances relate to amounts received from or billed to customers in advance of having delivered the related cars or provided the related services.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when control over a product or service is transferred to a customer. Revenue is measured at the transaction price which is based on the amount of consideration that the Group expects to receive in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services to the customer and excludes any sales incentives as well as taxes collected from customers that are remitted to government authorities. The transaction price will include estimates of variable consideration to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue recognized will not occur. The Group enters into contracts that may include both products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations.

The Group generates revenue from the sale of cars, spare parts and engines as well as from sponsorship, commercial and brand activities. The Group accounts for a contract with a customer when there is a legally enforceable contract between the Group and the customer, the rights of the parties are identified, the contract has commercial substance, and collectability of the contract consideration is probable. Payments from customers are typically due within 30 and 40 days of invoicing.

The Group does not recognize any assets associated with the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer that are expected to be recovered. The majority of revenue is recognized at a point-in-time or over a period of one year or less, and the Group applies the practical expedient to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that would otherwise be recognized is one year or less.

Cars, spare parts and engines

The sales of cars, spare parts and engines have multiple performance obligations that include products, services, or a combination of products and services as contracts may include maintenance programs and extended warranties that are separately priced or not separately priced. Contracts may also include variable consideration for discounts such as sales incentives and performance based bonuses and product returns. The cost of incentives is estimated at the inception of a contract at the expected amount that will ultimately be paid and is recognized as a reduction to revenue at the time of the sale. Revenues recognized are limited to the amount of consideration the Group expects to receive. The Group allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations based on the stand alone selling prices (SSP) for each obligation. When the SSP does not exist, the Group estimates the SSP based on the adjusted market approach.

Revenues for the sale of cars, spare parts and engines are recognized at a point in time when control of the cars, spare parts or engines is transferred to the customer based on shipping terms, which generally corresponds to the date when the cars,

F-19

Ferrari N.V.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

spare parts and engines are released to the carrier responsible for transportation to dealers or Maserati. Revenues relating to the maintenance program or extended warranty are recognized over time as the maintenance program or extended warranty is provided. Revenues from the supply of engines and related services to other Formula 1 racing teams are recognized over time on a time and materials basis when the services are provided.

Management has exercised judgment in determining performance obligations, variable consideration, allocation of transaction price and the timing of revenue recognition.

Sponsorship, commercial and brand activities

Revenues from sponsorship agreements are generally recognized ratably over the contract term as the customer benefits from the service throughout the service period. For sponsorship agreements that contain variable consideration based on performance of the racing team, the related revenues are estimated and recognized over the relevant period to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur, which is typically when it is considered highly probable that the related conditions associated with the variable consideration will be achieved.

Revenues from commercial activities primarily relate to the revenues from participating in the Formula 1 World Championship. The revenues attributable to each racing team are governed by a specific agreement and depend upon, among other factors, the prior year ranking of each of the racing teams. Revenues of the commercial activities are recognized ratably over the contract term.

Revenues from brand licensing agreements where the customer has a right to access the Group’s brands or the contract includes minimum guaranteed payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Licensing revenues in excess of the minimum guaranteed payments are recognized when the related conditions are satisfied. Revenues from sales-based licensing agreements are recognized when the sales occur.

Management has exercised judgment in determining variable consideration.

Other revenues

Interest income generated by our financial service activities from the provision of client and dealer financing is reported within revenues using the effective interest rate method and not within net financial income/expenses.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales comprises expenses incurred in the manufacturing and distribution of cars and parts, including the engines rented to other Formula 1 racing teams, of which, cost of materials, components and labor costs are the most significant portion. The remaining costs principally include depreciation, amortization, insurance and transportation costs. Cost of sales also includes warranty and product-related costs, which are estimated and recorded at the time of sale of the car.

Expenses which are directly attributable to the financial services companies, including the interest expenses related to their financing as a whole and provisions for risks and write-downs of assets, are also reported in cost of sales.

Taxes

Income taxes include all taxes based upon the taxable profits of the Group. Current and deferred taxes are recognized as income or expense and are included in the consolidated income statement for the period, except tax arising from (i) a transaction or event which is recognized, in the same or a different period, either in other comprehensive income/(loss) or directly in equity, or (ii) a business combination.

Deferred taxes are accounted using the full liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities and their tax base, except to the extent that the deferred tax liabilities arise from the initial recognition of goodwill or the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized, unless the deferred tax assets arise from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the substantively enacted tax rates in the respective jurisdictions in which the Group operates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or liability is settled. Any remeasurements to deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of changes in substantially enacted tax rates are recognized in the income statement.

The recoverability of deferred tax assets is dependent on the Group’s ability to generate sufficient future taxable income in the period in which it is assumed that the deductible temporary differences reverse and tax losses carried forward can be utilized. In making this assessment, the Group considers future taxable income arising on the most recent budgets and plans, prepared by using the same criteria described for testing the impairment of assets and goodwill, moreover, it estimates the impact of the reversal of taxable temporary differences on earnings and it also considers the period over which these assets could be recovered. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reduced to the extent that it is not probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of part or all of the deferred tax assets to be utilized.

The Group recognizes deferred tax liabilities associated with the existence of a subsidiary’s undistributed profits, except when it is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that this temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. The Group recognizes deferred tax assets associated with the deductible temporary differences on investments in subsidiaries only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized.

Deferred tax assets relating to the carry-forward of unused tax losses and tax credits, as well as those arising from deductible temporary differences, are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future profits will be available against which they can be utilized.

Current income taxes and deferred taxes are offset when they relate to the same taxation authority and there is a legally enforceable right of offset.

Italian Regional Income Tax (“IRAP”) is recognized within income tax expense. IRAP is calculated on a measure of income defined by the Italian Civil Code as the difference between operating revenues and costs, before financial income and expense, and in particular before the cost of fixed-term employees, credit losses and any interest included in lease payments. IRAP is applied on the tax base at 3.9 percent for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

Other taxes not based on income, such as property taxes and capital taxes, are included in other expenses/(income), net.

Dividends

Dividends payable by the Group are reported as a change in equity in the period in which they are approved by shareholders or the Board of Directors as applicable under local rules and regulations.

Rounding of amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest thousand Euro unless otherwise stated.

Net profit attributable to non-controlling interests	1,949	2,003	956

The non-controlling interests in FICTS are not considered to be significant to the Group for the relevant periods.

Restrictions

The Group may be subject to restrictions which limit its ability to use cash in relation to its interest in FICTS. In particular, cash held in China is subject to certain repatriation restrictions and may only be repatriated as dividends. The Group does not believe that such transfer restrictions have any adverse impacts on its ability to meet liquidity requirements. Cash held in China at December 31, 2018 amounted to €77,790 thousand (€66,456 thousand at December 31, 2017).

Cash collected from the settlement of receivables or lines of credit pledged as collateral is subject to certain restrictions regarding its use and is principally applied to repay principal and interest of the related funding. Such cash amounted to €26,497 thousand at December 31, 2018 (€28,230 thousand at December 31, 2017).

Segment reporting

The Group has determined that it has one operating and one reportable segment based on the information reviewed by its CODM in making decisions regarding the allocation of resources and to assess performance.

Use of estimates

The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS which require the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the amounts of income and expenses recognized. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on elements that are known when the financial statements are prepared, on historical experience and on any other factors that are considered to be relevant.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed periodically and continuously by the Group. If the items subject to estimates do not perform as assumed, then the actual results could differ from the estimates, which would require adjustment accordingly. The effects of any changes in estimate are recognized in the consolidated income statement in the period in which the adjustment is made, or prospectively in future periods.

The items requiring estimates for which there is a risk that a material difference may arise in respect of the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the future are discussed below.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

Recoverability of non-current assets with definite useful lives

Non-current assets with definite useful lives include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. Intangible assets with definite useful lives mainly consist of capitalized development costs.

The Group periodically reviews the carrying amount of non-current assets with definite useful lives when events and circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired. Impairment tests are performed by comparing the carrying amount and the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (“CGU”). The recoverable amount is the higher of the CGU’s fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the CGU.

For the period covered by these Consolidated Financial Statements, the Group has not recognized any impairment charges for non-current assets with definite useful lives.

Recoverability of goodwill

In accordance with IAS 36 - Impairment of Assets, goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if facts or circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired.

As the Group is composed of one operating segment, goodwill is tested at the Group level, which represents the lowest level within the Group at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes in accordance with IAS 36. The impairment test is performed by comparing the carrying amount (which mainly comprises property, plant and equipment, goodwill and capitalized development costs) and the recoverable amount of the CGU. The recoverable amount of the CGU is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use.

For the period covered by these Consolidated Financial Statements, the Group has not recognized any impairment charges for goodwill.

Development costs

Development costs are capitalized if the conditions under IAS 38 - Intangible Assets have been met. The starting point for capitalization is based upon the technological and commercial feasibility of the project, which is usually when a product development project has reached a defined milestone according to the Group’s established product development model. Feasibility is based on management’s judgment which is formed on the basis of estimated future cash flows. Capitalization ceases and amortization of capitalized development costs begins on start of production of the relevant project.

The amortization of development costs requires management to estimate the lifecycle of the related model. Any changes in such assumptions would impact the amortization charge recorded and the carrying amount of capitalized development costs. The periodic amortization charge is derived after determining the expected lifecycle of the related model and, if applicable any expected residual value at the end of its life. Increasing an asset’s expected lifecycle or its residual value would result in a reduced amortization charge in the consolidated income statement.

The useful lives and residual values of the Group’s models are determined by management at the time of capitalization and reviewed annually for appropriateness and recoverability. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events which may impact their life such as changes in technology. Historically changes in useful lives and residual values have not resulted in material changes to the Group’s amortization charge or estimated recoverability of the related assets.

Product warranties liabilities

The Group establishes reserves for product warranties at the time the sale is recognized. The Group issues various types of product warranties under which the performance of products delivered is generally guaranteed for a certain period or term, which is generally defined by the legislation in the country where the car is sold. The reserve for product warranties includes the expected costs of warranty obligations imposed by law or contract, as well as the expected costs for policy coverage. The estimated future costs of these actions are principally based on assumptions regarding the lifetime warranty costs of each car

F-24

Ferrari N.V.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

line and each model year of that car line, as well as historical claims experience for the Group’s cars. In addition, the number and magnitude of additional service actions expected to be approved, and policies related to additional service actions, are taken into consideration. Due to the uncertainty and potential volatility of these estimated factors, changes in the assumptions used could materially affect the results of operations.

The Group periodically initiates voluntary service actions to address various client satisfaction, safety and emissions issues related to cars sold. Included in the reserve is the estimated cost of these services and recall actions. The estimated future costs of these actions are based primarily on historical claims experience for the Group’s cars and the cost of parts and services to be incurred in the specified activities, and are recognized at the time when they are probable and reasonably estimable. Estimates of the future costs of these actions are inevitably imprecise due to several uncertainties, including the number of cars affected by a service or recall action. It is reasonably possible that the ultimate cost of these service and recall actions may require the Group to make expenditures in excess of (or less than) established reserves over an extended period of time. The estimate of warranty and additional service obligations is periodically reviewed during the year.

In addition, the Group makes provisions for estimated product liability costs arising from property damage and personal injuries including wrongful death, and potential exemplary or punitive damages alleged to be the result of product defects. By nature, these costs can be infrequent, difficult to predict, and have the potential to vary significantly in amount. Costs associated with these provisions are recorded in the consolidated income statement and any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the period in which the adjustment is determined.

Share-based compensation

The Group accounts for its equity incentive plan in accordance with IFRS 2 - Share-based Payment, which requires the recognition of share-based compensation expense based on the fair value of the awards granted. Share-based compensation for equity-settled awards containing market performance conditions is measured at the grant date of the awards using the Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected volatility of our common stock, the dividend yield, interest rates and the correlation coefficient between our common stock and the relevant market index. The probability that the Group will achieve a certain level of Total Shareholder Return performance compared to the defined peer group is also considered. As a result, at the grant date management is required to make key assumptions and estimates regarding conditions that will occur in the future, which inherently involves uncertainty. Therefore, the amount of share-based compensation recognized has been effected by the significant assumptions and estimates used.

Other contingent liabilities

The Group makes provisions in connection with pending or threatened disputes or legal proceedings when it is considered probable that there will be an outflow of funds and when the amount can be reasonably estimated. If an outflow of funds becomes possible but the amount cannot be estimated, the matter is disclosed in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Group is the subject of legal and tax proceedings covering a wide range of matters in various jurisdictions. Due to the uncertainty inherent in such matters, it is difficult to predict the outflow of funds that could result from such disputes with any certainty. Moreover, the cases and claims against the Group often derive from complex legal issues which are subject to a differing degree of uncertainty, including the facts and circumstances of each particular case and the manner in which applicable law is likely to be interpreted and applied to such fact and circumstances, and the jurisdiction and the different laws involved. The Group monitors the status of pending legal proceedings and consults with experts on legal and tax matters on a regular basis. It is therefore possible that the provisions for the Group’s legal proceedings and litigation may vary as the result of future developments in pending matters.

Litigation

Various legal proceedings, claims and governmental investigations are pending against the Group on a wide range of topics, including car safety, emissions and fuel economy, early warning reporting, dealer, supplier and other contractual relationships, intellectual property rights and product warranties matters. Some of these proceedings allege defects in specific component parts or systems (including airbags, seatbelts, brakes, transmissions, engines and fuel systems) in various car models or allege general design defects relating to car handling and stability, sudden unintended movement or crashworthiness. These proceedings seek recovery for damage to property, personal injuries or wrongful death and in some cases could include a claim for exemplary or punitive damages. Adverse decisions in one or more of these proceedings could require the Group to pay substantial damages, or undertake service actions, recall campaigns or other costly actions.

F-25

Ferrari N.V.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of individual matters is not predictable with assurance. An accrual is established in connection with pending or threatened litigation if a loss is probable and a reliable estimate can be made. Since these accruals represent estimates, it is reasonably possible that the resolution of some of these matters could require the Group to make payments in excess of the amounts accrued. It is also reasonably possible that the resolution of some of the matters for which accruals could not be made may require the Group to make payments in an amount or range of amounts that could not be reasonably estimated.

The term “reasonably possible” is used herein to mean that the chance of a future transaction or event occurring is more than remote but less than probable. Although the final resolution of any such matters could have a material effect on the Group’s operating results for the particular reporting period in which an adjustment of the estimated reserve is recorded, it is believed that any resulting adjustment would not materially affect the consolidated financial position of the Group.

The Group’s entities participate in a group Italian tax consolidation under Ferrari N.V..

In September 2018, the Group signed an agreement with the Italian Revenue Agency in relation to the Patent Box tax regime, which provides tax benefits for companies that generate income through the use, both direct and indirect, of copyrights, patents, trademarks, designs and know-how. The agreement relates to the five-year period from 2015 to 2019. The Group applied the Patent Box tax regime for the calculation of income taxes starting in the third quarter of 2018. The Patent Box tax benefit relating to the years 2015 to 2017 was recorded within taxes relating to prior periods in 2018 and amounted to €141 million, of which €139 million was from direct use and €2 million was from indirect use of copyrights, patents, trademarks, designs and know-how. The estimated Patent Box tax benefit relating to the year 2018 amounted to €61 million and is recorded within current tax expense for 2018.

The reconciliation between actual income tax expense and the theoretical income tax expense, calculated on the basis of the theoretical tax rates in effect in Italy, is as follows:

	For the years ended December 31,
	2018		2017		2016
	(€ thousand)
Theoretical income tax expense, net of IRAP	192,706		179,077		156,022
Tax effect on:
Permanent and other differences	(58,877	)	(7,061	)	(10,219	)
Effect of changes in tax rate and tax regulations	—		4,862		1,280
Differences between foreign tax rates and the theoretical Italian tax rate and tax holidays	1,216		2,344		853
Taxes relating to prior years	(145,084	)	(1,232	)	(3,567	)
Withholding tax on earnings	1,514		2,420		2,017
Total income tax (benefit)/expense, net of IRAP	(8,525	)	180,410		146,386
Effective tax rate, net of IRAP	(1.1	)%	24.2	%	25.8	%
IRAP (current and deferred)	24,842		28,350		21,249
Total income tax expense	16,317		208,760		167,635

Theoretical income taxes have been calculated at the corporate income tax rate in Italy for the respective years, which was 24.0 percent for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and 27.5 percent for the year ended December 31, 2016 (a change in Italian tax law approved a reduction in the corporate income tax rate from 27.5 percent to 24 percent, effective from 2017).

In order to facilitate the understanding of the tax rate reconciliation presented above, income tax expense has been presented net of Italian Regional Income Tax (“IRAP”). IRAP is calculated on a measure of income defined by the Italian Civil Code as the difference between operating revenues and costs, before financial income and expense, and in particular before the cost of fixed-term employees, credit losses and any interest included in lease payments. IRAP is applied on the tax base at 3.9 percent for each of the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

The decrease in the effective tax rate net of IRAP from 24.2 percent in 2017 to (1.1) percent in 2018 was primarily attributable to the positive impact of the Patent Box, as described above, including the benefit relating to the years 2015 to 2017 which was recognized in 2018. The Patent Box benefit relating to the years 2015 to 2017 is included within “taxes relating to prior years” and the Patent Box benefit relating to 2018 is included within “permanent and other differences” in the tax rate reconciliation above.

The decrease in the effective tax rate net of IRAP from 25.8 percent in 2016 to 24.2 percent in 2017 was primarily attributable to the combined effects of a reduction in the Italian corporate income tax rate from 27.5 percent to 24 percent (effective from 2017), deductions related to eligible research and development costs and depreciation of fixed assets in accordance with tax regulations in Italy, partially offset by a decrease in net deferred tax assets due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that was enacted into law in the U.S on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act includes various changes to the tax law, including a reduction in the corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent effective January 1, 2018. The Group recognized the effects of the changes in the tax rate and laws resulting from the Tax Act in 2017, which resulted in a €4,646 thousand decrease in net deferred tax assets, recorded through the income statement, related to adjusting deferred tax assets and liabilities to reflect the new corporate tax rate. The accounting for the effects of the rate change on deferred tax balances is complete and no provisional amounts were recorded for this item.

The analysis of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 2018 and 2017, is as follows:

	At December 31,
	2018		2017
	(€ thousand)

The decision to recognize deferred tax assets is made for each company in the Group by assessing whether the conditions exist for the future recoverability of such assets by taking into account the basis of the most recent forecasts from budgets and business plans.

Deferred taxes on the undistributed earnings of subsidiaries have not been recognized, except in cases where it is probable the distribution will occur in the foreseeable future. For additional information, at December 31, 2018, the aggregate amount of temporary differences related to remaining distributable earnings of the Group’s subsidiaries where deferred tax liabilities have not been recognized amounted to €92,437 thousand.

12. OTHER INFORMATION BY NATURE

Personnel costs in 2018, 2017 and 2016 amounted to €323,936 thousand, €313,471 thousand and €294,047 thousand, respectively. These amounts include costs that were capitalized mainly in connection with product development activities.

In 2018, 2017 and 2016 the Group had an average number of employees of 3,651, 3,336 and 3,115, respectively.

13. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares in issue. The following table provides the amounts used in the calculation of basic earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016:

		For the years ended December 31,
		2018	2017	2016
Profit attributable to owners of the Company	€ thousand	784,678	535,393	398,762
Weighted average number of common shares	thousand	188,606	188,951	188,923
Basic earnings per common share	€	4.16	2.83	2.11

Diluted earnings per share

The weighted average number of common shares for diluted earnings per share was increased to take into consideration the theoretical effect of (i) the potential common shares that would be issued under the equity incentive plan (see Note 22 for additional details of the equity incentive plan) for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and (ii) the potential common shares that would have been issued for the Non-Executive Directors’ compensation agreement for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

The following table provides the amounts used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016:

		For the years ended December 31,
		2018	2017	2016
Profit attributable to owners of the Company	€ thousand	784,678	535,393	398,762

Diluted earnings per common share	€	4.14	2.82	2.11

14. GOODWILL

At December 31, 2018 and 2017 goodwill amounted to €785,182 thousand.

In accordance with IAS 36, goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if facts or circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Impairment testing is performed by comparing the carrying amount and the recoverable amount of the CGU. The recoverable amount of the CGU is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use.

The assumptions used in this process represent management’s best estimate for the period under consideration. The estimate of the value in use of the CGU for purposes of performing the annual impairment test was based on the following assumptions:

• The expected future cash flows covering the period from 2019 through 2023 have been derived from the Ferrari business plan. In particular the estimate considers expected EBITDA adjusted to reflect the expected capital expenditure. These cash flows relate to the CGU in its condition when preparing the financial statements and exclude the estimated cash flows that might arise from restructuring plans or other structural changes. Volumes and sales mix used for estimating the future cash flows are based on assumptions that are considered reasonable

Ferrari N.V.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

and sustainable and represent the best estimate of expected conditions regarding market trends for the CGU over the period considered.

• The expected future cash flows include a normalized terminal period used to estimate the future results beyond the time period explicitly considered, which were calculated by using the specific medium/long-term growth rate for the sector equal to 2.0 percent in 2018 (2.0 percent in 2017 and 2016).

• The expected future cash flows have been estimated in Euro, and discounted using a post-tax discount rate appropriate for that currency, determined by using a base WACC of 7.0 percent in 2018 (7.0 percent in 2017 and 2016). The WACC used reflects the current market assessment of the time value of money for the period being considered and the risks specific to the CGU under consideration.

The recoverable amount of the CGU was significantly higher than its carrying amount. Furthermore, the exclusivity of the business, its historical profitability and its future earnings prospects indicate that the carrying amount of the goodwill will continue to be recoverable, even in the event of difficult economic and market conditions.

During 2018 the average contractual duration at inception of such contracts was approximately 67 months and the weighted average interest rate was approximately 5.7 percent (approximately 5.1 percent in 2017). Receivables for client financing are generally secured on the titles of cars or other personal guarantees.

Client financing relates entirely to financial services activities in the United States and is denominated in U.S. Dollars.

Dealer financing

The Group provides dealer financing inthe United States. Receivables for dealer financing are typically generated by sales of cars managed under dealer network financing programs as a component of the portfolio of financial services activities. In 2018 these receivables were interest bearing at a rate between 4.1 percent and 7.0 percent (between 3.3 percent and 6.0 percent in 2017), with the exception of an initial limited, non-interest bearing period. The contractual terms governing the relationships with the dealer network may vary, although payment terms generally range from 1 to 6 months. Receivables on dealer financing are generally secured by the title of the car or other collateral.

Current tax receivables

The increase in current tax receivables primarily related to the Patent Box benefit.

Cash flow hedges

The effects recognized in the consolidated income statement mainly relate to currency risk management and in particular the exposure to fluctuations in the Euro/U.S. Dollar exchange rate for sales in U.S. Dollars.

The policy of the Group for managing foreign currency risk normally requires hedging of a portion of projected future cash flows from trading activities and orders acquired (or contracts in progress) in foreign currencies which will occur within the following 12 months. It is considered reasonable that the hedging effect arising from this and recorded in the cash flow hedge reserve will be recognized in the consolidated income statement, mainly during the following 12 months.

Derivatives relating to currency risk management are treated as cash flow hedges where the derivative qualifies for hedge accounting. The amount recorded in the cash flow hedge reserve will be recognized in the consolidated income statement according to the timing of the flows of the underlying transaction.

The Group reclassified gains and losses, net of the tax effect, from other comprehensive income/(loss) to the consolidated income statement as follows:

	For the years ended December 31,
	2018		2017		2016
	(€ thousand)
Net revenues/(costs)	3,777		19,724		(69,368	)

Total recognized in the consolidated income statement	2,723		14,221		(50,014	)

Share capital

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the fully paid up share capital of the Company was €2,504 thousand, consisting of 193,923,499 common shares and 56,497,618 special voting shares, all with a nominal value of €0.01 per share. At December 31, 2018, the Company had 6,002,843 common shares and 4,744 special voting shares held in treasury, while at December 31, 2017, the Company had 4,969,625 common shares and 4,099 special voting shares held in treasury.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the opening and closing number of outstanding common shares and outstanding special voting shares:

	Common Shares		Special Voting Shares		Total

_______________________________________

(1) Includes shares repurchased between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2018 based on the transaction trade date.

(2) Relates to the deregistration of special voting shares from the loyalty register.

The loyalty voting structure

The purpose of the loyalty voting structure is to reward ownership of the Company’s common shares and to promote stability of the Company’s shareholder base by granting long-term shareholders of the Company with special voting shares. Following the Separation, Exor N.V. (“Exor”) and Piero Ferrari participate in the Company’s loyalty voting program and, therefore, effectively hold two votes for each of the common shares they hold. Investors who purchased common shares in the initial public offering may elect to participate in the loyalty voting program by registering their common shares in the loyalty share register and holding them for three years. The loyalty voting program will be effected by means of the issue of special voting shares to eligible holders of common shares. Each special voting share entitles the holder to exercise one vote at the Company’s shareholders meeting. Only a minimal dividend accrues to the special voting shares allocated to a separate special dividend reserve, and the special voting shares do not carry any entitlement to any other reserve of the Group. The special voting shares have only immaterial economic entitlements and, as a result, do not impact the Company’s earnings per share calculation.

Retained earnings and other reserves

Retained earnings and other reserves includes:

• a share premium reserve of €5,768,544 thousand at December 31, 2018 (€5,768,544 thousand at December 31, 2017), which primarily originated from the issuance of common shares pursuant to the restructuring activities undertaken as part of the Separation.

• a legal reserve of €29 thousand at December 31, 2018 and €8 thousand at December 31, 2017, determined in accordance with Dutch law.

• a treasury reserve of €100,143 thousand at December 31, 2018 and €50 thousand at December 31, 2017.

• a share-based compensation reserve of €52,198 thousand at December 31, 2018 and €29,707 thousand at December 31, 2017.

Following approval of the annual accounts by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the Shareholders on April 13, 2018, a dividend distribution of €0.71 per common share was approved, corresponding to a total distribution of €133,939 thousand (of which €133,095 thousand was paid in 2018). The distribution was made from the retained earnings reserve.

On February 9, 2018, the Company announced its intention to launch a share repurchase program. The program is intended to optimize the capital structure of the Company. Shares repurchased may be used to meet the Company’s obligations arising from the equity incentive plan approved in 2017. As of December 31, 2018 the Company had repurchased 1,033,218 common shares for a total consideration of €100,093 thousand under the program.

Transactions with non-controlling interests

With the exception of dividends paid to non-controlling interests, there were no transactions with non-controlling interests for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 or 2016.

Policies and processes for managing capital

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to create value for shareholders as a whole, safeguard business continuity and support the growth of the Group. As a result, the Group endeavors to maintain a satisfactory economic return for its shareholders and guarantee economic access to external sources of funds.

22. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Following the approval of the equity incentive plan by the Board of Directors in March 2017, the Shareholders approved in April 2017 an award to the former Chief Executive Officer under the Company’s equity incentive plan, which is applicable to members of the Senior Management Team (“SMT”) and key leaders of the Group. The grants of the PSUs and the RSUs, each representing the right to receive one common share of the Company, cover a five-year performance period from 2016 to 2020, consistent with the Company’s strategic horizon. In 2018 additional PSU and RSU awards were granted, subject to the Shareholders’ approval at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (which is currently expected to be held on April 12, 2019), to the new Chief Executive Officer and certain key employees of the Group under the equity incentive plan.

At December 31, 2018, none of the PSUs or RSUs were vested, and 33 thousand PSUs and 16 thousand RSUs were forfeited. Under the equity incentive plan, the total number of PSUs and RSUs outstanding at December 31, 2018 were 675 thousand and 113 thousand, respectively.

For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recognized €22,491 thousand and €28,179 thousand, respectively, as share-based compensation expense and an increase to other reserves in equity for the PSU awards and RSU awards. At December 31, 2018, unrecognized compensation expense amounted to €5,572 thousand and will be recognized over the remaining vesting period through 2020.

Performance Share Units

The Company awarded members of the SMT and key leaders a total target of approximately 237 thousand PSUs and 450 thousand PSUs to its Chief Executive Officer in 2017, and an additional total of approximately 21 thousand PSUs were awarded in 2018. The PSUs vest in three equal tranches in 2019, 2020 and 2021, subject to the achievement of a market performance condition related to Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”). The interim partial vesting periods are independent of one another and any under-achievement in one period can be offset by over-achievement in subsequent periods. The target amount

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

of PSUs vests as follows based on the Company’s TSR ranking compared to an industry specific peer group of eight, including the Company, (“Peer Group”):

Ferrari TSR Ranking	% of Target Awards that Vest
	CEO	SMT and Key Leaders
1	150%	150%
2	120%	120%
3	100%	100%
4	75%	—
5	50%	—
>5	0%	—

The defined Peer Group is as follows:

Ferrari	Brunello Cucinelli	Burberry	Ferragamo
Hermes	LVMH	Moncler	Richemont

The total number of shares that will eventually be issued upon vesting of the PSUs may vary from the original award, depending on the level of TSR performance achieved compared to the Peer Group.

The performance period for the PSUs commenced on January 1, 2016. The fair value of the awards used for accounting purposes was measured at the grant date using a Monte Carlo Simulation model. The range of the fair value of the PSUs that were awarded in 2017 is €59.36 to €72.06 per share and the range of the fair value of the PSUs that were awarded in 2018 is €61.30 and €111.92.

The key assumptions utilized to calculate the grant-date fair values for these awards are summarized below:

Key assumptions	PSU Awards Granted in 2017	PSU Awards Granted in 2018
Grant date share price	€66.85	€113.70
Expected volatility	17.4%	16.7%
Dividend yield	1.2%	0.9%
Risk-free rate	0%	0%

The expected volatility was based on the observed volatility of the Peer Group. The risk-free rate was based on the iBoxx sovereign Eurozone yield.

Retention Restricted Share Units

The Company awarded members of the SMT and key leaders a total of approximately 119 thousand RSUs in 2017, and an additional 10 thousand RSUs were awarded in 2018, including to the Chief Executive Officer. The RSU awards granted are conditional on a recipient’s continued service to the Company, as described below. The RSUs, each of which represents the right to receive one common share of the Company, will vest in three equal tranches in 2019, 2020 and 2021, subject to continued employment with the Company at the time of vesting.

The performance period for the RSUs commenced on January 1, 2016. The fair value of the awards was measured using the share price at the grant date adjusted for the present value of future distributions which employees will not receive during the vesting period. The range of the fair value of the RSUs awarded in 2017 is €63.00 to €64.64 per share and the range of the fair value of the RSUs awarded in 2018 is €110.76 to €112.99.

23. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

The Group’s provisions for employee benefits are as follows:

	At December 31,
	2018	2017
	(€ thousand)
Present value of defined benefit obligations:
Italian employee severance indemnity (TFR)	21,195	22,641
Pension plans	485	604
Total present value of defined benefit obligations	21,680	23,245
Other provisions for employees	64,895	60,914
Total provisions for employee benefits	86,575	84,159

Defined contribution plan

The Group recognizes the cost for defined contribution plans over the period in which the employee renders service and classifies this by function in cost of sales, selling, general and administrative costs and research and development costs. The total income statement expense for defined contributions plans in the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 was €11,930 thousand, €11,987 thousand and €9,719 thousand, respectively.

Defined benefit obligations

Italian employee severance indemnity (TFR)

Trattamento di fine rapporto or “TFR” relates to the amounts that employees in Italy are entitled to receive when they leave the company and is calculated based on the period of employment and the taxable earnings of each employee. Under certain conditions the entitlement may be partially advanced to an employee during the employee’s working life.

The Italian legislation regarding this scheme was amended by Law 296 of 27 December 2006 and subsequent decrees and regulations issued in the first part of 2007. Under these amendments, companies with at least 50 employees are obliged to transfer the TFR to the “Treasury fund” managed by the Italian state-owned social security body (“INPS”) or to supplementary pension funds. Prior to the amendments, accruing TFR for employees of all Italian companies could be managed by the company itself. Consequently, the Italian companies’ obligation to INPS and the contributions to supplementary pension funds take the form, under IAS 19 revised, of “Defined contribution plans” whereas the amounts recorded in the provision for employee severance pay retain the nature of “Defined benefit plans”. Accordingly, the provision for employee severance indemnity in Italy consists of the residual obligation for TFR until December 31, 2006. This is an unfunded defined benefit plan as the benefits have already been almost entirely earned, with the sole exception of future revaluations. Since 2007 the scheme has been classified as a defined contribution plan, and the Group recognizes the associated cost, being the required contributions to the pension funds, over the period in which the employee renders service.

Pension plans

Group companies, primarily in Germany sponsor non-contributory defined benefit pension plans, for which the Group meets the benefit payment obligation when it falls due. Benefits provided depends on the employee’s length of service and their salary in the final years leading up to retirement.

Amounts recognized in the consolidated income statement are as follows:

Total recognized in the consolidated income statement	—	55	55	—	142	142	391	(37	)	354

The discount rates used for the measurement of the Italian TFR obligation are based on yields of high-quality (AA rated) fixed income securities for which the timing and amounts of payments match the timing and amounts of the projected benefit payments. For this plan, the single weighted average discount rate that reflects the estimated timing and amount of the scheme future benefit payments for 2018 is equal to 1.7 percent (1.5 percent in 2017 and 1.3 percent in 2016). The average duration of the Italian TFR is approximately 9 years. Retirement or employee leaving rates are developed to reflect actual and projected Group experience and legal requirements for retirement in Italy.

The discount rates used for the measurement of the pension plan obligation (excluding TFR) and the interest expense/(income) of net period cost, are based on the rate of return on high-quality (AA rated) fixed income investments for which the timing and amounts of payments match the timing and amounts of the projected pension defined benefit plan which for 2018 was equal to approximately 0.8 percent (0.7 percent2017 and 1.3 percent in 2016). The average duration of the obligations is approximately 9 years.

Current service cost is recognized by function in cost of sales, selling, general and administrative costs or research and development costs.

The sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to changes in the weighted principal assumptions is:

	At December 31,
	2018			2017
	Changes in assumption of +1% discount rate		Changes in assumption of -1% discount rate	Changes in assumption of +1% discount rate		Changes in assumption of -1% discount rate
	(€ thousand)
Impact on defined benefit obligation	(1,647	)	1,891	(1,771	)	2,036

The above sensitivity analysis on TFR is based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognized in the statement of the financial position.

Other provisions for employees

Other provisions for employees consist of the expected future amounts payable to employees in connection with other remuneration schemes, which are not subject to actuarial valuation, including long-term bonus plans.

At December 31, 2018, other provisions for employees comprised long term bonus benefits amounting to €61,885 thousand (€58,090 thousand at December 31, 2017), jubilee benefits granted to certain employees by the Group in the event of achieving 30 years of service amounting to €2,955 thousand (€2,745 thousand at December 31, 2017), and other provisions for employees benefits amounting to €55 thousand (€79 thousand at December 31, 2017).

Warranty and recall campaigns provision

The warranty and recall campaigns provision represents the best estimate of commitments given by the Group for contractual, legal, or constructive obligations arising from product warranties given for a specified period of time. Such provisions are recognized on shipment of the car to the dealer.

The warranty and recall campaigns provision is estimated on the basis of the Group’s past experience and contractual terms. Related costs are recognized within cost of sales.

Takata airbag inflator recalls

On May 4, 2016, the United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”) published an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the November 3, 2015 Takata Consent Order regarding Takata airbags manufactured using non-desiccated Phase Stabilized Ammonium Nitrate (“PSAN”), expanding the scope of a prior recall under the Takata Consent Order. The recall is industry wide and replacement parts are limited as Takata is the single supplier. In compliance with the Amendment to the Takata Consent Order, on May 16, 2016, Takata submitted a defect information report (“DIR”) to NHTSA declaring the non-desiccated PSAN airbag inflators, including those sold by Takata to the Group,

defective.

Although the Group was not aware of any confirmed incidents or warranty claims relating to such airbag inflators mounted in its cars or that the airbag inflators were not performing as designed, as a result of the Amendment issued by NHTSA and the DIR issued by Takata, the Group initiated a global recall relating to certain cars produced between 2008 and 2011. Following a Third Amendment to the Coordinated Remedy Order (“ACRO”) published by NHTSA in December 2016 and an additional Takata DIR filed on January 3, 2017, the Group filed an additional DIR on January 10, 2017 to also include certain cars produced in 2012. As a result of internal assessments, in 2016 Ferrari decided to extend the recall campaign to include all cars produced in all model years based on priority groups and the timeline set by NHTSA.

As a result of these developments and due to the uncertainty of recoverability of the costs from Takata, an aggregate provision of €36,994 thousand was recognized within cost of sales in the year ended December 31, 2016. At December 31, 2018, the provision amounted to €24,513 thousand (€34,567 thousand at December 31, 2017), reflecting the current best estimate for future costs related to the entire recall campaign to be carried out by the Group. The decrease in the provision relates to ongoing recall activities as well as a partial release.

Legal proceedings and disputes

The provision for legal proceedings and disputes represents management’s best estimate of the expenditures expected to be required to settle or otherwise resolve legal proceedings and disputes. This class of claims relate to allegations by contractual counterparties that the Group has violated the terms of the arrangements, including by terminating the applicable relationships. Judgments in these proceedings may be issued in 2019 or beyond, although any such judgment may remain subject to judicial review. While the outcome of such proceedings is uncertain, any losses in excess of the provisions recorded are not expected to be material to the Group’s financial condition or results of operations.

The notes for both the 2023 Bond and the 2021 Bond 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. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, Ferrari was in compliance with the covenants of the notes.

Securitizations

Starting in 2016, FFS Inc has pursued a strategy of self-financing, further reducing dependency on intercompany funding and increasing the portion of self-liquidating debt with various securitization transactions. As of December 31, 2018, FFS Inc had the following revolving securitization programs:

• revolving securitization program for funding, which was increased up to $450 million in December 2018, 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 LIBOR plus a margin of 65 basis points. As of December 31, 2018 total proceeds net of repayments from the sales of financial receivables under the program were $424 million ($325 million at December 31, 2017). The securitization agreement requires the maintenance of an interest rate cap.

• revolving securitization program for funding, which was increased up to $250 million in October 2018, 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 LIBOR plus a margin of 65 basis points. As of December 31, 2018 total proceeds net of repayments from the sales of financial receivables under the program were $223 million ($222 million at December 31, 2017). The securitization agreement requires the maintenance of an interest rate cap.

• revolving securitization program for funding of up to $135 million by pledging credit lines to Ferrari customers secured by personal vehicle collections and personal guarantees in the United States as collateral. The notes bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the aggregate of LIBOR plus a margin of 120 basis points. As of December 31, 2018 total proceeds net of repayments from the sales of financial receivables under the program were $134 million ($120 million at December 31, 2017). The securitization agreement does not require an interest rate cap.

The funding limits of the revolving securitization programs have been increased since inception as the related receivables portfolios have finished.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

Cash collected from the settlement of receivables or lines of credit pledged as collateral is subject to certain restrictions regarding its use and is principally applied to repay principal and interest of the funding. Such cash amounted to €26,497 thousand at December 31, 2018 (€28,230 thousand at December 31, 2017).

Borrowings from banks

Borrowings from banks at December 31, 2018 mainly relate to financial liabilities of FFS Inc to support the financial services operations, and in particular (i) €30,694 thousand (€29,189 thousand at December 31, 2017) relating to a U.S. Dollar denominated credit facility for up to $50 million (drawn down for $35 million at December 31, 2018) and bearing interest at LIBOR plus a range of between 65 and 75 basis points; (ii) other borrowings from banks of €5,290 thousand (€8,870 thousand at December 31, 2017) relating to various short and medium term credit facilities.

The Facility

On November 30, 2015, the Company, as borrower and guarantor, and certain other members of the Group, as borrowers, entered into a €2.5 billion facility with a syndicate of banks (the “Facility”). At inception, the Facility comprised a bridge loan of €500 million (the “Bridge Loan”), a term loan of €1,500 million (the “Term Loan”) and a revolving credit facility of €500 million (the “RCF”).

In December 2015 the Bridge Loan and Term Loan were fully drawn down for the purposes of repaying financial liabilities with FCA, including the debt that originated from restructuring activities undertaken as part of the Separation. In March 2016, the Bridge Loan was fully repaid, primarily using the proceeds from the 2023 Bond. In 2016 and 2017 the Company made scheduled payments and voluntary prepayments, funded in part with the proceeds of the 2021 Bond, to fully repay the Term Loan.

At December 31, 2018 and 2017 the RCF was undrawn. Proceeds of the RCF may be used from time to time for general corporate and working capital purposes of the Group. The RCF has a maturity of five years from inception of the Facility.

Other debt

Other debt primarily relates to funding for operating activities of the Group.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

Advances and security deposits at December 31, 2018 and at December 31, 2017 primarily include advances received from customers, primarily for the purchase of our hypercars and limited edition cars. Upon shipment of such cars, the advances are recognized as revenue. Of the total contract liability related to advances as of December 31, 2018, the Group expects to recognize the entire amount within net revenues in 2019.    

Changes in the Group’s contract liabilities for maintenance and power warranties, and advances from customers, were as follows:

	At January 1, 2018	Additional amounts arising during the period	Amounts recognized within revenue		Other changes		At December 31, 2018

Total other liabilities (excluding accrued expenses and deferred income)	223,138	6,960	6,420	236,518	264,380	4,760	—	269,140

27. TRADE PAYABLES

Trade payables of €653,751 thousand at December 31, 2018 (€607,505 thousand at December 31, 2017) are entirely due within one year. The carrying amount of trade payables is considered to be equivalent to their fair value.

28. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

IFRS 13 establishes a hierarchy that categorizes into three levels 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 December 31, 2018 and 2017:

		At December 31, 2018
	Note	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Total
		(€ thousand)
Cash and cash equivalents		793,664	—	—	793,664
Investments and other financial assets - Liberty Media Shares	17	5,142	—	—	5,142
Current financial assets	20	—	6,788	—	6,788
Total assets		798,806	6,788	—	805,594
Other financial liabilities	20	—	11,342	—	11,342
Total liabilities		—	11,342	—	11,342

		At December 31, 2017
	Note	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Total
		(€ thousand)
Cash and cash equivalents		647,706	—	—	647,706
Investments and other financial assets - Liberty Media Shares	17	5,705	—	—	5,705
Current financial assets	20	—	11,686	—	11,686
Total assets		653,411	11,686	—	665,097
Other financial liabilities	20	—	1,444	—	1,444
Total liabilities		—	1,444	—	1,444

There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels between 2017 and 2018.

The fair value of current financial assets and other financial liabilities is related to derivative financial instruments and is measured by taking into consideration market parameters at the balance sheet date, using valuation techniques widely accepted in the financial business environment. In particular, the fair value of forward contracts, currency swaps and interest rate caps is determined by taking the prevailing foreign currency exchange rate and interest rates, as applicable, at the balance sheet date.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents usually approximates fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments, which consist primarily of bank current 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.

31. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL RISKS

The Group is exposed to the following financial risks connected with its operations:

• financial market risk (principally relating to foreign currency exchange rates, and to a lesser extent, interest rates), as the Group operates internationally in different currencies;

• liquidity risk, with particular reference to the availability of funds and access to the credit market, should the Group require, and to financial instruments in general;

• credit risk, arising both from its normal commercial relations with final clients and dealers, and its financing activities.

These risks could significantly affect the Group’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and for this reason the Group identifies and monitors these risks, in order to detect potential negative effects in advance and take the necessary action to mitigate them, primarily through its operating and financing activities and if required, through the use of derivative financial instruments.

The following section provides qualitative and quantitative disclosures on the effect that these risks may have upon the Group. The quantitative data reported in the following section does not have any predictive value. In particular, the sensitivity analysis on finance market risks does not reflect the complexity of the market or the reaction which may result from any changes that are assumed to take place.

Financial market risks

Due to the nature of the Group’s business, the Group is exposed to a variety of market risks, including foreign currency exchange rate risk and to a lesser extent, interest rate risk.

The Group’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk arises from the geographic distribution of the Group’s shipments, as the Group generally sells its models in the currencies of the various markets in which the Group operates, while the Group’s industrial activities are all based in Italy, and primarily denominated in Euro.

The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk arises from the need to fund certain activities and the necessity to deploy surplus funds. Changes in market interest rates may have the effect of either increasing or decreasing the Group’s net profit/(loss), thereby indirectly affecting the costs and returns of financing and investing transactions.

These risks could significantly affect the Group’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and for this reason these risks are identified and monitored, in order to detect potential negative effects in advance and take the necessary actions to mitigate them, primarily through the Group’s operating and financing activities, and if required, through the use of derivative financial instruments.

The Group has in place various risk management policies, which primarily relate to foreign exchange, interest rate and liquidity risks. The Group’s risk management policies permit derivatives to be used for managing exposures to foreign exchange rates and interest rates. Counterparties to these agreements are major financial institutions. Derivatives cannot be entered into for speculative purposes.

In particular, the Group used derivative financial instruments as cash flow hedges for the purpose of fixing the foreign currency exchange rate at which a predetermined proportion of forecasted transactions denominated in foreign currencies will be accounted for.    Accordingly, as a result of applying risk management policies with respect to foreign currency exchange exposure, the Group’s results of operations have not been fully exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

F-62

Ferrari N.V.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

However, despite these risk management policies and hedging transactions, sudden adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates could have a significant effect on the Group’s earnings and cash flows.

The Group also enters into interest rate caps as requested by certain of its securitization agreements.

Information on the fair value of derivative financial instruments held is provided in Note 20.

Information on foreign currency exchange rate risk

The Group is exposed to risk resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which can affect its earnings and equity. In particular:

• Where a Group company incurs costs in a currency different from that of its revenues, any change in foreign currency exchange rates can affect the operating results of that company. In 2018, the total trade flows exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk amounted to the equivalent of 49 percent of the Group’s turnover (51 percent in 2017).

• The main foreign currency exchange rate to which the Group is exposed is the Euro/U.S. Dollar for sales in U.S. Dollar in the United States and other markets where the U.S. Dollar is the reference currency. In 2018, the value of commercial activity exposed to fluctuations in the Euro/U.S. Dollar exchange rate accounted for approximately 57 percent (62 percent in 2017) of the total currency risk from commercial activity. In 2018, the commercial activity exposed to the Euro/Pound Sterling exchange rate exceeded 10 percent (as in 2017) of the total currency risk from commercial activity. Other significant exposures included the exchange rate between the Euro and the following currencies: Japanese Yen, Chinese Renminbi, Swiss Franc, Canadian Dollar and Australian Dollar. None of these exposures, taken individually, exceeded 10 percent of the Group’s total foreign currency exchange rate exposure for commercial activity in 2018. It is the Group’s policy to use derivative financial instruments to hedge up to 90 percent of certain exposures to foreign currency exchange risk for up to twelve months.

• Several subsidiaries are located in countries that are outside the Eurozone, in particular the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Japan, Australia and Singapore. As the Group’s reporting currency is the Euro, the income statements of those companies are converted into Euro using the average exchange rate for the period and, even if revenues and margins are unchanged in local currency, changes in exchange rates can impact the amount of revenues, costs and profit as restated in Euro.

• The amount of assets and liabilities of consolidated companies that report in a currency other than the Euro may vary from period to period as a result of changes in exchange rates. The effects of these changes are recognized directly in equity as a component of other comprehensive income/(loss) under gains/(losses) from currency translation differences.

The Group monitors its principal exposure to conversion exchange risk, although there was no specific hedging in this respect at the reporting date.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on reporting monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the period or in previous financial statements, are recognized in the consolidated income statement within the net financial income/(expenses) line item or as cost of sales for charges arising from financial services companies.

The impact of foreign currency exchange rate differences recorded within financial income/(expenses) for the year ended December 31, 2018, except for those arising on financial instruments measured at fair value, amounted to net losses of €13,293 thousand (net losses of €18,059 thousand and net gains of €8,335 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively).

The impact of foreign currency exchange rate differences arising from financial services activities recognized under cost of sales, except for those arising on financial instruments measured at fair value, amounted to net gains of €58,808 thousand in 2016. Following the deconsolidation of FFS GmbH in November 2016, all of the Group’s financial services activities are

F-63

Ferrari N.V.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

conducted in the functional currency of the related financial services companies, therefore, such impact in 2018 and 2017 was nil.

Except as noted above, there have been no substantial changes in 2018 in the nature or structure of exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk or in the Group’s hedging policies.

The potential decrease in fair value of derivative financial instruments held by the Group at December 31, 2018 to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risk, which would arise in the case of a hypothetical, immediate and adverse change of 10 percent in the exchange rates of the major foreign currencies with the Euro, would be approximately €106,400 thousand (€45,439 thousand at December 31, 2017). Receivables, payables and future trade flows for which hedges have been put in place were not included in the analysis. It is reasonable to assume that changes in foreign currency exchange rates will produce the opposite effect, of an equal or greater amount, on the underlying transactions that have been hedged.

Information on interest rate risk

The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk, though less significant, arises from the need to fund financial services activities and the necessity to deploy surplus funds. Changes in market interest rates may have the effect of either increasing or decreasing the Group’s net profit/(loss), thereby indirectly affecting the costs and returns of financing and investing transactions.

The Group’s most significant floating rate financial assets at December 31, 2018 were cash and cash equivalents and certain receivables from financing activities (related to client and dealer financing), while 37 percent of the Group’s gross debt bears floating rates of interest. At December 31, 2018, a decrease of 10 basis points in interest rates on floating rate financial assets and debt, with all other variables held constant, would have resulted in a decrease in profit before taxes of €251 thousand on an annual basis (an decrease of €225 thousand at December 31, 2017). The analysis is based on the assumption that floating rate financial assets and debt which expires during the projected 12-month period will be renewed or reinvested in similar instruments, bearing the hypothetical short-term interest rates.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises if the Group is unable to obtain the funds needed to carry out its operations under economic conditions. The main determinant of the Group’s liquidity position is the cash generated by or used in operating and investing activities.

From an operating point of view, the Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring cash flows and keeping an adequate level of funds at its disposal. The main funding operations and investments in cash and marketable securities of the Group are centrally managed or supervised by the treasury department with the aim of ensuring effective and efficient management of the Group’s liquidity. The Group has established series of policies which are managed or supervised centrally by the treasury department with the purpose of optimizing the management of funds and reducing liquidity risk which include:

•centralizing liquidity management through the use of cash pooling arrangement

•maintaining a conservative level of available liquidity

•diversifying sources of funding

•obtaining adequate credit lines

•monitoring future liquidity requirements on the basis of business planning

Intercompany financing between Group entities is not restricted other than through the application of covenants requiring that transactions with related parties be conducted at arm’s length terms.

Details on the maturity profile of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities and on the structure of derivative financial instruments are provided in Notes 20 and 26. Details of the repayment of derivative financial instruments are provided in Note 20.

The Group has a revolving credit facility of €500 million, which was entirely undrawn at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The Group believes that the funds currently available to it, in addition to those that will be generated from operating activities, will enable Ferrari to satisfy the requirements of its investing activities and working capital needs, fulfill its obligations to repay

F-64

Ferrari N.V.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

at December 31, 2018 and 2017

its debt and ensure an appropriate level of operating and strategic flexibility. The Group, therefore believes there is no significant risk of a lack of liquidity.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of economic loss arising from the failure to collect a receivable. Credit risk encompasses the direct risk of default and the risk of a deterioration of the creditworthiness of the counterparty.

The maximum credit risk to which the Group is theoretically exposed at December 31, 2018 is represented by the carrying amounts of the financial assets stated in the consolidated statement of financial position sheet and the nominal value of the guarantees provided.

Dealers and clients are subject to a specific evaluation of their creditworthiness. Additionally, it is Group practice to obtain financial guarantees against risks associated with credit granted for the purchase of cars and parts. These guarantees are further strengthened, where possible, by retaining title on cars subject to financing agreement.

Credit positions of material significance are evaluated on an individual basis. Where objective evidence exists that they are uncollectible, in whole or in part, specific write-downs are recognized. The amount of the write-down is based on an estimate of the recoverable cash flows, timing of those cash flows, the cost of recovery and the fair value of any guarantees received.

Receivables from financing activities amounting to €878,496 thousand at December 31, 2018 (€732,947 thousand at December 31, 2017) are shown net of the allowance for doubtful accounts amounting to €6,457 thousand (€6,948 thousand at December 31, 2017). After considering the allowance for doubtful accounts, €53,800 thousand of receivables were overdue (€11,943 thousand at December 31, 2017). Therefore, overdue receivables represent a minor portion of receivables from financing activities.

Receivables from financing activities relate entirely to the financial services portfolio in the United States and such receivables are generally secured on the titles of cars or other guarantees.

Trade receivables amounting to €211,399 thousand at December 31, 2018 (€239,410 thousand at December 31, 2017) are shown net of the allowance for doubtful accounts amounting to €24,346 thousand (€21,993 thousand at December 31, 2017). After considering the allowance for doubtful accounts, €36,772 thousand of receivables were overdue (€32,336 thousand at December 31, 2017).

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 167 authorized dealers operating 190 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 18 Ferrari-owned stores and 17 franchised stores (including 5 Ferrari Store Junior), as well as on the Group’s website. To facilitate the sale of new and used cars, the Group provides various forms of financing, through cooperation and other agreements, to both clients and dealers. Ferrari also participates in the Formula 1 World Championship through Scuderia Ferrari. The activities of Scuderia Ferrari are the core element of Ferrari marketing and promotional activities and an important source of innovation supporting the technological advancement of Ferrari sports and street cars.

Basis of preparation

Authorization of consolidated financial statements and compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards

These consolidated financial statements of Ferrari N.V. were authorized for issuance on February 26, 2019.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”), as well as IFRS as adopted by the European Union. There is no effect on these consolidated financial statements resulting from differences between IFRS as issued by the IASB and IFRS as adopted by the European Union. The designation IFRS also includes International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) as well as all the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC” and “SIC”).

The consolidated financial statements are prepared under the historical cost method, modified as required for the measurement of certain financial instruments, as well as on a going concern basis.

The Group’s presentation currency is the Euro, which is also the functional currency of the Company, and unless otherwise stated information is presented in thousands of Euro.

Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Format of the financial statements

The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of financial position, consolidated statement of cash flows, consolidated statement of changes in equity and notes thereto, (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”).

For presentation of the consolidated income statement, the Group uses a classification based on the function of expenses, as it is more representative of the format used for internal reporting and management purposes and is consistent with international practice.

In the consolidated income statement, the Group also presents a subtotal for Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT). EBIT distinguishes between the profit before taxes arising from operating items and those arising from financing activities. EBIT is the primary measure used by the Group’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to assess performance.

For the consolidated statement of financial position, a mixed format has been selected to present current and non-current assets and liabilities, as permitted by IAS 1 paragraph 60. More specifically, the Consolidated Financial Statements include both industrial and financial services activities. Receivables from financing activities are included in current assets as the investments will be realized in their normal operating cycle. The funding for financial services activities is obtained through securitization programs and funding from certain of the Group’s operating companies. This financial service structure within the Group does not allow the separation of financial liabilities funding the financial services operations (whose assets are reported within current assets) and those funding the industrial operations. Presentation of financial liabilities as current or non-current based on their date of maturity would not facilitate a meaningful comparison with financial assets, which are categorized on the basis of their normal operating cycle. Disclosure as to the due date of the debt is provided in Note 25.

The consolidated statement of cash flows is presented using the indirect method.

New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2018

The following new standards and amendments that are applicable from January 1, 2018 were adopted by the Group for the preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 applies to all revenues arising from contracts with customers (unless those contracts are in the scope of other standards) and replaces IAS 18 - Revenue, IAS 11 - Construction Contracts and related interpretations. The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard establishes a five step model to recognize revenue in accordance with this core principle. The Group adopted IFRS 15 and related amendments using the modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initial adoption (if any) recognized at the date of initial application of January 1, 2018. The Group analyzed each of its revenue streams by applying the five-step model and concluded that its accounting for revenue under IFRS 15 did not result in the recognition of a cumulative adjustment to opening retained earnings under the modified retrospective approach, nor did it have a material effect on the Group’s financial position or results of operations. The Group’s updated accounting policy for revenue recognition is provided further below.

IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments

The Group adopted IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments, which includes a logical approach for:

• the classification and measurement of financial instruments driven by cash flow characteristics and the business model in which an asset is held;

• a single “expected loss” impairment model for financial assets, and

• a substantially reformed approach for hedge accounting.

The Group analyzed each of its classes of financial assets, financial liabilities and derivative instruments and concluded that its accounting for financial instruments under IFRS 9 does not result in material changes compared to its accounting for financial instruments under IAS 39, therefore, there was no impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements upon initial adoption of the standard and related amendments. The Group’s updated accounting policy for financial instruments is provided further below.

Amendments to IFRS 2 - Share-Based Payment

The Group adopted Amendments to IFRS 2 - Share-Based Payment. The amendments provide requirements on the accounting for (i) the effects of vesting and non-vesting conditions on the measurement of cash-settled share-based payments; (ii) share-based payment transactions with a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations; and (iii) a modification to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment that changes the classification of the transaction from cash-settled to equity-settled. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 with early application permitted. The Group has applied the amendments to share-based payment transactions under the Group’s equity incentive plan that contains a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations, resulting in such transactions being classified in their entirety as equity-settled. There were no other effects from the adoption of these amendments.

IFRIC Interpretation 22 - Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration

The Group adopted IFRIC Interpretation 22 - Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration. The interpretation addresses the exchange rate to use in transactions that involve advance consideration paid or received in a foreign currency. The interpretation is effective on or after January 1, 2018. There was no effect from the adoption of this interpretation.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 Cycle

The Group adopted Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 Cycle. The improvements have amended two standards with effective date of January 1, 2018: i) IFRS 1 - First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards and ii) IAS 28 - Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. The amendments clarify, correct or remove redundant wording in the related IFRS Standards. 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 2019 or subsequent years are listed below:

IFRS 16 - Leases

In January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16 - Leases which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract and replaces the previous leases standard, IAS 17 - Leases. IFRS 16, which is not applicable to service contracts, but only applicable to leases or lease components of a contract, defines a lease as a contract that conveys to the customer (lessee) the right to use an asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases for the lessee as either operating leases or finance leases as required by IAS 17 and, instead, introduces a single lessee accounting model whereby a lessee is required to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term that is greater than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value, and to recognize depreciation of lease assets separately from interest on lease liabilities in the income statement. As IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17, a lessor will continue to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases and to account for those two types of leases differently.

The Group will apply IFRS 16 from its mandatory adoption date of January 1, 2019. The Group intends to apply the simplified transition approach and not restate comparative amounts for the year prior to adoption. Upon adoption, right-of-use assets are measured at the amount of the related lease liabilities, adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease expenses. The Group elected to use the exemptions permitted by the standard on lease contracts for which the lease terms ends within 12 months of the date of initial application, and lease contracts for which the underlying asset is of low value.

The main contracts of the Group within the scope of IFRS 16 relate to Ferrari stores and industrial equipment. As of January 1, 2019, after considering the exemptions mentioned above, the Group has non-cancellable operating lease commitments of approximately €72 million. Of these commitments, the Group expects to recognize right-of-use assets (after adjustments for prepayments and accrued lease payments recognized as at December 31, 2018) and related lease liabilities of €61 million. The Group expect no significant impact from the application of the new standard on net profit and cash flow from operating activities. Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the fixed or in substance fixed lease payments over the lease term that have not been paid at the date of adoption. The lease term includes both the non-cancellable periods for which the Group has the right to use the underlying assets and also any renewal periods if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise the related renewal option. The discount rate was determined taking into consideration country risk, currency, lease term and the Group’s credit spread. Lease liabilities do not include any non-lease components that may be included in the related contracts.

The Group does not expect to recognize any deferred tax assets or liabilities in respect of temporary differences arising on initial recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as the recognition does not affect accounting profit or taxable profit. No significant impact is expected on the financial statements for i) the Group’s lease agreements previously classified as finance leases under IAS 17 and ii) the Group’s activities as lessor.

Other amendments and interpretations not yet effective

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. IFRS 17 is effective on or after January 1, 2021 with early adoption allowed if IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments are also applied. The Group does not expect any impact from the adoption of this standard.

In June 2017 the IASB issued IFRIC Interpretation 23 - Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments which provides requirements regarding how to reflect uncertainties in accounting for income taxes. The interpretation is effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of this interpretation.

In October 2017 the IASB issued Amendments to IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments that allow, under certain conditions, for a prepayable financial asset with negative compensation payments to be measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income. The amendments also contain a clarification relating to the accounting for a modification or exchange of a financial liability measured at amortized cost that does not result in the derecognition of the financial liability. The amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect any impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In October 2017 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 28 - Long Term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures to clarify that an entity applies IFRS 9 to long-term interests in an associate or joint venture that form part of the net investment in the associate or joint venture but to which the equity method is not applied. The amendment is effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect a material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In December 2017 the IASB issued Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2015 - 2017 Cycle, which has amendments to the following four Standards: IFRS 3 - Business Combinations, in relation to obtaining control of a business which was previously accounted for as an interest in a joint operation, IFRS 11- Joint Arrangements, in relation to obtaining joint control of a business which was previously accounted for as a joint operation, IAS 12 - Income Taxes, clarifying the treatment of taxes in relation to dividend payments and IAS 23 - Borrowing Costs, clarifying the treatment of borrowings which were previously capitalized when the related asset is ready for its intended use or sale. The amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In February 2018 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 19 - Employee Benefits. When there is a change to a defined benefit plan (an amendment, curtailment or settlement) the amendments require that a company use the updated assumptions from the remeasurement of a net defined benefit liability or asset to determine current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the reporting period after the change to the plan. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect a material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In October 2018 the IASB issued narrow scope amendments to IFRS 3 - Business Combinations to improve the definition of a business. The amendments aim to help companies determine whether an acquisition made is of a business or a group of assets. The amended definition emphasizes that the output of a business is to provide goods and services to customers, whereas the previous definition focused on returns in the form of dividends, lower costs or other economic benefits to investors and others. In addition to amending the definition of a business, supplementary guidance is provided. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2020. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In October 2018 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors to clarify the definition of ‘material’, as well as how materiality should be applied by including in the definition guidance that is included elsewhere in IFRS standards. In addition, the explanations accompanying the definition have been improved and the amendments ensure that the definition of material is consistent across all IFRS standards. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2020. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

Review of the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting

In March 2018 the IASB revised the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting, effective immediately for the IASB and the IFRS Interpretations Committee when setting future standards, and effective for annual reporting periods on or after January 1, 2020 for companies that use the Conceptual Framework to develop accounting policies when no IFRS Standard applies to a particular transaction, with early application permitted. Key changes include (i) increasing the prominence of stewardship in the objective of financial reporting; (ii)reinstating prudence as a component of neutrality, defined as the exercise of caution when making judgements under conditions of uncertainty; (iii)defining a reporting entity; (iv)revising the definitions of an asset and a liability; (v)removing the probability threshold for recognition, and adding guidance on derecognition; (vi)adding guidance on the information provided by different measurement bases, and explaining factors to consider when selecting a measurement basis; and (vii) stating that profit or loss is the primary performance indicator and income and expenses in other comprehensive income should be recycled where the relevance or faithful representation of the financial statements would be enhanced. The Group does not expect a material impact from the adoption of the revised Conception Framework for Financial Reporting.

Basis of consolidation

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities over which the Group has control. Control is achieved when the Group has power over the investee, when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor’s returns. Subsidiaries are consolidated on a line by line basis from the date on which the Group achieves control. The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

The Group recognizes any non-controlling interests (“NCI”) in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s share of the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Net profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income/(loss) are attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income/(loss) of subsidiaries is attributed to owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

All significant intra-group balances and transactions and any unrealized gains and losses arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Subsidiaries are deconsolidated from the date when control ceases. When the Group ceases to have control over a subsidiary, it derecognizes the assets (including any goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary at their carrying amounts, derecognizes the carrying amount of non-controlling interests in the former subsidiary and recognizes the fair value of any consideration received from the transaction. Any retained interest in the former subsidiary is then remeasured to its fair value.

In 2016 the Group sold a majority stake in Ferrari Financial Services GmbH. From such date, the Group’s remaining interest has been remeasured at fair value and accounted for using the equity method.

Interests in associates

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but without having control or joint control over those policies. Associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting from the date significant influence is obtained.

Under the equity method, the investments are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group’s share of the profit/(loss) and other comprehensive income/(loss) of the investee. The Group’s share of the investee’s profit/(loss) is recognized in the consolidated income statement. Distributions received from an investee reduce the carrying amount of the investment. Post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income/(loss) are recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss) with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying amount of the investment.

Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associate. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.

When the Group’s share of the losses of an associate exceeds the Group’s interest in that associate, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date the investment ceases to be an associate or when it is classified as available-for-sale.

Interests in joint operations

A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

When the Group undertakes its activities under joint operations, it recognizes in relation to its interest in the joint operation: (i) its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly, (ii) its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly, (iii) its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation, (iv) its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation, and (v) its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly.

Foreign currency transactions

The functional currency of the Group’s entities is the currency of their primary economic environment. In individual companies, transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the foreign currency exchange rate prevailing at that date. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on reporting monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the period or in previous financial statements are recognized in the consolidated income statement.

Consolidation of foreign entities

All assets and liabilities of foreign consolidated companies with a functional currency other than the Euro are translated using the closing rates at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position. Income and expenses are translated into Euro at the average foreign currency exchange rate for the period. Translation differences resulting from the application of this method are classified as currency translation differences within other comprehensive income/(loss) until the disposal of the investment. Average foreign currency exchange rates for the period are used to translate the cash flows of foreign subsidiaries in preparing the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Goodwill, assets acquired and liabilities assumed arising from the acquisition of entities with a functional currency other than the Euro are recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements in the functional currency and translated at the foreign currency exchange rate at the acquisition date. These balances are translated at subsequent balance sheet dates at the relevant foreign currency exchange rate.

The principal foreign currency exchange rates used to translate other currencies into Euro were as follows:

	2018		2017		2016

Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Development costs

Development costs for car project production and related components, engines and systems are recognized as an asset if, and only if, both of the following conditions under IAS 38 - Intangible Assets are met: that development costs can be measured reliably and that the technical feasibility of the product, volumes and pricing support the view that the development expenditure will generate future economic benefits. Capitalized development costs include all direct and indirect costs that may be directly attributed to the development process.

Capitalized development costs are amortized on a straight-line basis from the start of production over the estimated lifecycle of the model and the useful life of the components (generally between four and eight years). All other research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

In particular the Group incurs significant research and development costs through the Formula 1 racing activities. These costs are considered fundamental to the development of the sports and street car models and prototypes. The model for the Formula 1 racing activities continually evolves and as such these costs are expensed as incurred.

Patents, concessions and licenses

Separately acquired patents, concessions and licenses are initially recognized at cost. Patents, concessions and licenses acquired in a business combination are initially recognized at fair value. Patents, concessions and licenses are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful economic lives, which is generally between three and five years.

Other intangible assets

Other intangible assets mainly relate to the registration of trademarks and have been recognized in accordance with IAS 38 - Intangible Assets, where it is probable that the use of the asset will generate future economic benefits for the Group and where the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Other intangible assets are measured at cost less any impairment losses and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated life, which is generally between three and five years.

Property, plant and equipment

Cost

Property, plant and equipment is initially recognized at cost which comprises the purchase price, any costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, capitalized borrowing costs and any initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. Self-constructed assets are initially recognized at production cost. Subsequent expenditures and the cost of replacing parts of an asset are capitalized only if they increase the future economic benefits embodied in that asset. All other expenditures are expensed as incurred. When such replacement costs are capitalized, the carrying amount of the parts that are replaced is recognized as a loss in the period of replacement in the consolidated income statement.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:

	Depreciation rates
Industrial buildings	3% - 20%
Plant, machinery and equipment	5% - 22%
Other assets	12% - 25%

Land is not depreciated.

If the asset being depreciated consists of separately identifiable components whose useful lives differ from that of the other parts making up the asset, depreciation is charged separately for each of its component parts through application of the ‘component approach’.

Borrowing costs

General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use.

All other borrowing costs are expensed in net financial expenses if related to the Group’s industrial activities or cost of sales if related to the Group’s financial services activities in the consolidated income statement, as incurred.

Impairment of assets

The Group continuously monitors its operations to assess whether there is any indication that its intangible assets (including development costs) and its property, plant and equipment may be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently, if there is an indication that an asset may be impaired.

If indications of impairment are present, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The recoverable amount is determined for the individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case the asset is tested as part of the cash-generating unit (“CGU”) to which the asset belongs. A CGU is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. In assessing the value in use of an asset or CGU, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. An impairment loss is recognized if the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount.

Where an impairment loss for assets other than goodwill, subsequently no longer exists or has decreased, the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not in excess of the carrying amount that would have been recorded had no impairment loss been recognized. The reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated income statement immediately.

Financial instruments

Presentation

Current financial assets include trade receivables, receivables from financing activities, derivative financial instruments, other current financial assets and cash and cash equivalents.

Investments and other financial assets include investments accounted for using the equity method as well as other securities and non-current financial assets.

Financial liabilities include debt (which primarily includes bonds, securitizations and borrowings from banks), trade payables and other financial liabilities, which mainly include derivative financial instruments.

Measurement

Financial assets, other than investments accounted for using the equity method, and financial liabilities are measured in accordance with IFRS 9.

Except for investments accounted for using the equity method, the Group initially measures financial assets at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.

Equity instruments held by the Group are recognized at fair value through profit or loss. When market prices are not directly available, the fair value is measured using appropriate valuation techniques (e.g. discounted cash flow analysis based on market information available at the balance sheet date). As permitted by IFRS 9, equity investments for which there is no quoted market price in an active market and there is insufficient financial information in order to determine fair value may be measured at cost as an estimate of fair value.

Trade receivables and receivables from financing activities are originated in the ordinary course of business and held within a business model with the objective to hold the receivables in order to collect contractual cash flows that meet the ‘solely payments of principal and interest’ criterion under IFRS 9, therefore they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Receivables with maturities greater than one year are discounted to present value. Assessments are made regularly as to whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets may be impaired. Under IFRS 9, a forward-looking expected credit loss model must be applied when assessing impairment. In making impairment assessments, the Group applies the standard simplified approach to estimate the lifetime expected credit losses and considers its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the nature of the Group’s receivables and economic environment. If any such evidence exists, an impairment loss is recognized within financial expenses.

Financial liabilities, with the exception of derivative financial instruments, are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments are used for economic hedging purposes only in order to reduce currency risks. Derivative financial instruments qualify for hedge accounting only when at the inception of the hedge there is formal designation and documentation of the hedging relationship, the hedge is expected to be highly effective, its effectiveness can be reliably measured and it is highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which it is designated.

All derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value.

When derivative financial instruments qualify for hedge accounting, the following accounting treatments apply:

Cash flow hedges - Where a derivative financial instrument is designated as a hedge of the exposure to variability in future cash flows of a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecasted transaction and could affect the consolidated income statement, the effective portion of any gain or loss on the derivative financial instrument is recognized directly in other comprehensive income/(loss). The cumulative gain or loss is reclassified from other comprehensive income/(loss) to the consolidated income statement at the same time as the economic effect arising from the hedged item affects the consolidated income statement. The gain or loss associated with a hedge or part of a hedge that has become ineffective is recognized in the consolidated income statement immediately within net financial income/expenses. When a hedging instrument or hedge relationship is terminated but the hedged transaction is still expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss realized to the point of termination remains in other comprehensive income/(loss) and is recognized in the consolidated income statement at the same time as the underlying transaction occurs. If the hedged transaction is no longer probable, the cumulative unrealized gain or loss held in other comprehensive income/(loss) is recognized in the consolidated income statement immediately.

The Group does not use fair value hedges or hedges of a net investment.

If hedge accounting cannot be applied, the gains or losses from the fair value measurement of derivative financial instruments are recognized immediately within financial expenses.

Transfers of financial assets

The Group sells certain of its receivables from financing activities under securitization programs. Securitization transactions involve the sale of a financial receivables portfolio to a special purpose vehicle, which in turn finances the purchase of such financial receivables by issuing asset-backed securities in the form of notes whose repayment of principal and interest depends on the cash flows generated by the related financial receivables. The receivables sold as part of securitization programs are still consolidated until collection from the customer.

The Group may also sell certain of its trade receivables through factoring transactions without recourse. The Group derecognizes the financial assets when, and only when, the contractual rights and risks to the cash flows arising from the related financial assets are no longer held or the Group has transferred the financial assets. In the case of a transfer of financial assets, if the Group transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets, it derecognizes such assets and separately recognizes as assets or liabilities any rights and obligations created or retained in the transfer. On derecognition of financial assets, the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and the consideration received or receivable for the transfer of the assets is recognized within cost of sales in the consolidated income statement.

Trade receivables

Trade receivables are amounts due from clients for goods sold or services provided in the ordinary course of business. Trade receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, less any provision for allowances.

Inventories

Inventories of raw materials, semi-finished products and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, cost being determined on a first-in first-out (FIFO) basis. The measurement of inventories includes the direct costs of materials, labor and indirect costs (variable and fixed). Purchase costs include ancillary costs. Prototypes are recognized at their estimated realizable value, if lower than production cost. Provision is made for obsolete and slow-moving raw materials, finished goods, spare parts and other supplies based on their expected future use and realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs for sale and distribution.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Employee benefits

Defined contribution plans

Costs arising from defined contribution plans are expensed as incurred.

Defined benefit plans

The Group’s net obligations are determined separately for each plan by estimating the present value of future benefits that employees have earned in the current and prior periods, and deducting the fair value of any plan assets. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is measured using actuarial techniques and actuarial assumptions that are unbiased and mutually compatible and attributes benefits to periods in which the obligation to provide post-employment benefits arise by using the Projected Unit Credit Method.

The components of the defined benefit cost are recognized as follows:

• the service costs are recognized in the consolidated income statement by function and presented in the relevant line items (cost of sales, selling, general and administrative costs, research and development costs, etc.);

• the net interest on the defined benefit liability is recognized in the consolidated income statement as net financial income /(expenses), and is determined by multiplying the net liability/(asset) by the discount rate used to discount obligations taking into account the effect of contributions and benefit payments made during the year; and

• the remeasurement components of the net obligations, which comprise actuarial gains and losses and any change in the effect of the asset ceiling are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income/(loss). These remeasurement components are not reclassified in the consolidated income statement in a subsequent period.

Other long-term employee benefits

The Group’s obligations represent the present value of future benefits that employees have earned in return for their service during the current and prior periods. Remeasurement components on other long-term employee benefits are recognized in the consolidated income statement in the period in which they arise.

Share-based compensation

The Group has implemented an equity incentive plan that provides for the granting of share-based compensation to the Chief Executive Officer, all other members of the Senior Management Team (“SMT”) and key leaders. The equity incentive plan is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 2 - Share-based Payment, which requires the Company to recognize share-based compensation expense based on fair value of awards granted. Compensation expense for the equity-settled awards containing market performance conditions is measured at the grant date fair value of the award using the Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected volatility of the Company’s common stock, the dividend yield, interest rates and a correlation coefficient between the common stock and the relevant market index. The fair value of the awards which are conditional only on a recipient’s continued service to the Company is measured using the share price at the grant date adjusted for the present value of future distributions which employees will not receive during the vesting period.

Share-based compensation expense relating to the equity incentive plan is recognized over the service period within selling, general and administrative costs or cost of sales in the consolidated income statement depending on the function of the employee, with an offsetting increase to equity.

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation, legal or constructive, as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made.

Warranty and recall campaigns provision

All cars are sold with warranty coverage. The warranty coverage generally applies to defects that may become apparent within a certain period from the purchase of the car.

The warranty provision is recognized at the time of the sale of the car, based on the present value of management’s estimate of the expected cost to fulfill the obligations over the contractual warranty period. Estimates are principally based on the Group’s historical claims or costs experience and the cost of parts and services to be incurred in the activities. The costs related to these provisions are recognized within cost of sales at the time when they are probable and reasonably estimable.

See “Use of estimates” below for further details.

Deferred income

Deferred income relates to amounts received by the Group under various agreements, which are reliant on the future performance of a service or other act of the Group. Deferred income is recognized as net revenues when the Group has fulfilled its obligations under the terms of the various agreements.

Range models (models belonging to the Ferrari product portfolio, excluding special series, limited edition and one-off (fuori serie) models) are sold with a scheduled maintenance program to ensure that the cars are maintained to the highest standards to meet the Group’s strict requirements for performance and safety. Amounts attributable to the maintenance program are not recognized as income immediately, but are deferred over the maintenance program term. The amount of the deferred income related to this program, is based on the estimated fair value of the service to be provided.

Advances

Advances relate to amounts received from or billed to customers in advance of having delivered the related cars or provided the related services.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when control over a product or service is transferred to a customer. Revenue is measured at the transaction price which is based on the amount of consideration that the Group expects to receive in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services to the customer and excludes any sales incentives as well as taxes collected from customers that are remitted to government authorities. The transaction price will include estimates of variable consideration to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue recognized will not occur. The Group enters into contracts that may include both products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations.

The Group generates revenue from the sale of cars, spare parts and engines as well as from sponsorship, commercial and brand activities. The Group accounts for a contract with a customer when there is a legally enforceable contract between the Group and the customer, the rights of the parties are identified, the contract has commercial substance, and collectability of the contract consideration is probable. Payments from customers are typically due within 30 and 40 days of invoicing.

The Group does not recognize any assets associated with the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer that are expected to be recovered. The majority of revenue is recognized at a point-in-time or over a period of one year or less, and the Group applies the practical expedient to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that would otherwise be recognized is one year or less.

Cars, spare parts and engines

The sales of cars, spare parts and engines have multiple performance obligations that include products, services, or a combination of products and services as contracts may include maintenance programs and extended warranties that are separately priced or not separately priced. Contracts may also include variable consideration for discounts such as sales incentives and performance based bonuses and product returns. The cost of incentives is estimated at the inception of a contract at the expected amount that will ultimately be paid and is recognized as a reduction to revenue at the time of the sale. Revenues recognized are limited to the amount of consideration the Group expects to receive. The Group allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations based on the stand alone selling prices (SSP) for each obligation. When the SSP does not exist, the Group estimates the SSP based on the adjusted market approach.

Revenues for the sale of cars, spare parts and engines are recognized at a point in time when control of the cars, spare parts or engines is transferred to the customer based on shipping terms, which generally corresponds to the date when the cars, spare parts and engines are released to the carrier responsible for transportation to dealers or Maserati. Revenues relating to the maintenance program or extended warranty are recognized over time as the maintenance program or extended warranty is provided. Revenues from the supply of engines and related services to other Formula 1 racing teams are recognized over time on a time and materials basis when the services are provided.

Management has exercised judgment in determining performance obligations, variable consideration, allocation of transaction price and the timing of revenue recognition.

Sponsorship, commercial and brand activities

Revenues from sponsorship agreements are generally recognized ratably over the contract term as the customer benefits from the service throughout the service period. For sponsorship agreements that contain variable consideration based on performance of the racing team, the related revenues are estimated and recognized over the relevant period to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur, which is typically when it is considered highly probable that the related conditions associated with the variable consideration will be achieved.

Revenues from commercial activities primarily relate to the revenues from participating in the Formula 1 World Championship. The revenues attributable to each racing team are governed by a specific agreement and depend upon, among other factors, the prior year ranking of each of the racing teams. Revenues of the commercial activities are recognized ratably over the contract term.

Revenues from brand licensing agreements where the customer has a right to access the Group’s brands or the contract includes minimum guaranteed payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Licensing revenues in excess of the minimum guaranteed payments are recognized when the related conditions are satisfied. Revenues from sales-based licensing agreements are recognized when the sales occur.

Management has exercised judgment in determining variable consideration.

Other revenues

Interest income generated by our financial service activities from the provision of client and dealer financing is reported within revenues using the effective interest rate method and not within net financial income/expenses.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales comprises expenses incurred in the manufacturing and distribution of cars and parts, including the engines rented to other Formula 1 racing teams, of which, cost of materials, components and labor costs are the most significant portion. The remaining costs principally include depreciation, amortization, insurance and transportation costs. Cost of sales also includes warranty and product-related costs, which are estimated and recorded at the time of sale of the car.

Expenses which are directly attributable to the financial services companies, including the interest expenses related to their financing as a whole and provisions for risks and write-downs of assets, are also reported in cost of sales.

Taxes

Income taxes include all taxes based upon the taxable profits of the Group. Current and deferred taxes are recognized as income or expense and are included in the consolidated income statement for the period, except tax arising from (i) a transaction or event which is recognized, in the same or a different period, either in other comprehensive income/(loss) or directly in equity, or (ii) a business combination.

Deferred taxes are accounted using the full liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities and their tax base, except to the extent that the deferred tax liabilities arise from the initial recognition of goodwill or the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized, unless the deferred tax assets arise from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the substantively enacted tax rates in the respective jurisdictions in which the Group operates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or liability is settled. Any remeasurements to deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of changes in substantially enacted tax rates are recognized in the income statement.

The recoverability of deferred tax assets is dependent on the Group’s ability to generate sufficient future taxable income in the period in which it is assumed that the deductible temporary differences reverse and tax losses carried forward can be utilized. In making this assessment, the Group considers future taxable income arising on the most recent budgets and plans, prepared by using the same criteria described for testing the impairment of assets and goodwill, moreover, it estimates the impact of the reversal of taxable temporary differences on earnings and it also considers the period over which these assets could be recovered. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reduced to the extent that it is not probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of part or all of the deferred tax assets to be utilized.

The Group recognizes deferred tax liabilities associated with the existence of a subsidiary’s undistributed profits, except when it is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that this temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. The Group recognizes deferred tax assets associated with the deductible temporary differences on investments in subsidiaries only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized.

Deferred tax assets relating to the carry-forward of unused tax losses and tax credits, as well as those arising from deductible temporary differences, are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future profits will be available against which they can be utilized.

Current income taxes and deferred taxes are offset when they relate to the same taxation authority and there is a legally enforceable right of offset.

Italian Regional Income Tax (“IRAP”) is recognized within income tax expense. IRAP is calculated on a measure of income defined by the Italian Civil Code as the difference between operating revenues and costs, before financial income and expense, and in particular before the cost of fixed-term employees, credit losses and any interest included in lease payments. IRAP is applied on the tax base at 3.9 percent for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

Other taxes not based on income, such as property taxes and capital taxes, are included in other expenses/(income), net.

Dividends

Dividends payable by the Group are reported as a change in equity in the period in which they are approved by shareholders or the Board of Directors as applicable under local rules and regulations.

Rounding of amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest thousand Euro unless otherwise stated.

_____________________________

(1) Shareholding held by Ferrari Financial Services Inc.

(2) Shareholding held by Ferrari North America Inc.

Ferrari Financial Services S.p.A., which at December 31, 2017 was a fully-owned indirect subsidiary, was merged into Ferrari S.p.A. effective May 31, 2018. As a consequence, Ferrari Financial Services Inc., previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ferrari Financial Services S.p.A., became a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Ferrari S.p.A. effective May 31, 2018.

Non-controlling interests

The non-controlling interests at December 31, 2018 and 2017 and the net profit attributable to non-controlling interests for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 relate to Ferrari International Cars Trading (Shanghai) Co. L.t.d. (“FICTS”), in which the Group holds an 80 percent interest.

	At December 31,
	2018	2017
	(€ thousand)
Equity attributable to non-controlling interests	5,117	5,258

	For the years ended December 31,
	2018	2017	2016
	(€ thousand)
Net profit attributable to non-controlling interests	1,949	2,003	956

The non-controlling interests in FICTS are not considered to be significant to the Group for the relevant periods.

Restrictions

The Group may be subject to restrictions which limit its ability to use cash in relation to its interest in FICTS. In particular, cash held in China is subject to certain repatriation restrictions and may only be repatriated as dividends. The Group does not believe that such transfer restrictions have any adverse impacts on its ability to meet liquidity requirements. Cash held in China at December 31, 2018 amounted to €77,790 thousand (€66,456 thousand at December 31, 2017).

Cash collected from the settlement of receivables or lines of credit pledged as collateral is subject to certain restrictions regarding its use and is principally applied to repay principal and interest of the related funding. Such cash amounted to €26,497 thousand at December 31, 2018 (€28,230 thousand at December 31, 2017).

Segment reporting

The Group has determined that it has one operating and one reportable segment based on the information reviewed by its CODM in making decisions regarding the allocation of resources and to assess performance.

Use of estimates

The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS which require the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the amounts of income and expenses recognized. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on elements that are known when the financial statements are prepared, on historical experience and on any other factors that are considered to be relevant.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed periodically and continuously by the Group. If the items subject to estimates do not perform as assumed, then the actual results could differ from the estimates, which would require adjustment accordingly. The effects of any changes in estimate are recognized in the consolidated income statement in the period in which the adjustment is made, or prospectively in future periods.

The items requiring estimates for which there is a risk that a material difference may arise in respect of the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the future are discussed below.

Recoverability of non-current assets with definite useful lives

Non-current assets with definite useful lives include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. Intangible assets with definite useful lives mainly consist of capitalized development costs.

The Group periodically reviews the carrying amount of non-current assets with definite useful lives when events and circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired. Impairment tests are performed by comparing the carrying amount and the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (“CGU”). The recoverable amount is the higher of the CGU’s fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the CGU.

For the period covered by these Consolidated Financial Statements, the Group has not recognized any impairment charges for non-current assets with definite useful lives.

Recoverability of goodwill

In accordance with IAS 36 - Impairment of Assets, goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if facts or circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired.

As the Group is composed of one operating segment, goodwill is tested at the Group level, which represents the lowest level within the Group at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes in accordance with IAS 36. The impairment test is performed by comparing the carrying amount (which mainly comprises property, plant and equipment, goodwill and capitalized development costs) and the recoverable amount of the CGU. The recoverable amount of the CGU is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use.

For the period covered by these Consolidated Financial Statements, the Group has not recognized any impairment charges for goodwill.

Development costs

Development costs are capitalized if the conditions under IAS 38 - Intangible Assets have been met. The starting point for capitalization is based upon the technological and commercial feasibility of the project, which is usually when a product development project has reached a defined milestone according to the Group’s established product development model. Feasibility is based on management’s judgment which is formed on the basis of estimated future cash flows. Capitalization ceases and amortization of capitalized development costs begins on start of production of the relevant project.

The amortization of development costs requires management to estimate the lifecycle of the related model. Any changes in such assumptions would impact the amortization charge recorded and the carrying amount of capitalized development costs. The periodic amortization charge is derived after determining the expected lifecycle of the related model and, if applicable any expected residual value at the end of its life. Increasing an asset’s expected lifecycle or its residual value would result in a reduced amortization charge in the consolidated income statement.

The useful lives and residual values of the Group’s models are determined by management at the time of capitalization and reviewed annually for appropriateness and recoverability. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events which may impact their life such as changes in technology. Historically changes in useful lives and residual values have not resulted in material changes to the Group’s amortization charge or estimated recoverability of the related assets.

Product warranties liabilities

The Group establishes reserves for product warranties at the time the sale is recognized. The Group issues various types of product warranties under which the performance of products delivered is generally guaranteed for a certain period or term, which is generally defined by the legislation in the country where the car is sold. The reserve for product warranties includes the expected costs of warranty obligations imposed by law or contract, as well as the expected costs for policy coverage. The estimated future costs of these actions are principally based on assumptions regarding the lifetime warranty costs of each car line and each model year of that car line, as well as historical claims experience for the Group’s cars. In addition, the number and magnitude of additional service actions expected to be approved, and policies related to additional service actions, are taken into consideration. Due to the uncertainty and potential volatility of these estimated factors, changes in the assumptions used could materially affect the results of operations.

The Group periodically initiates voluntary service actions to address various client satisfaction, safety and emissions issues related to cars sold. Included in the reserve is the estimated cost of these services and recall actions. The estimated future costs of these actions are based primarily on historical claims experience for the Group’s cars and the cost of parts and services to be incurred in the specified activities, and are recognized at the time when they are probable and reasonably estimable. Estimates of the future costs of these actions are inevitably imprecise due to several uncertainties, including the number of cars affected by a service or recall action. It is reasonably possible that the ultimate cost of these service and recall actions may require the Group to make expenditures in excess of (or less than) established reserves over an extended period of time. The estimate of warranty and additional service obligations is periodically reviewed during the year.

In addition, the Group makes provisions for estimated product liability costs arising from property damage and personal injuries including wrongful death, and potential exemplary or punitive damages alleged to be the result of product defects. By nature, these costs can be infrequent, difficult to predict, and have the potential to vary significantly in amount. Costs associated with these provisions are recorded in the consolidated income statement and any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the period in which the adjustment is determined.

Share-based compensation

The Group accounts for its equity incentive plan in accordance with IFRS 2 - Share-based Payment, which requires the recognition of share-based compensation expense based on the fair value of the awards granted. Share-based compensation for equity-settled awards containing market performance conditions is measured at the grant date of the awards using the Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected volatility of our common stock, the dividend yield, interest rates and the correlation coefficient between our common stock and the relevant market index. The probability that the Group will achieve a certain level of Total Shareholder Return performance compared to the defined peer group is also considered. As a result, at the grant date management is required to make key assumptions and estimates regarding conditions that will occur in the future, which inherently involves uncertainty. Therefore, the amount of share-based compensation recognized has been effected by the significant assumptions and estimates used.

Other contingent liabilities

The Group makes provisions in connection with pending or threatened disputes or legal proceedings when it is considered probable that there will be an outflow of funds and when the amount can be reasonably estimated. If an outflow of funds becomes possible but the amount cannot be estimated, the matter is disclosed in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Group is the subject of legal and tax proceedings covering a wide range of matters in various jurisdictions. Due to the uncertainty inherent in such matters, it is difficult to predict the outflow of funds that could result from such disputes with any certainty. Moreover, the cases and claims against the Group often derive from complex legal issues which are subject to a differing degree of uncertainty, including the facts and circumstances of each particular case and the manner in which applicable law is likely to be interpreted and applied to such fact and circumstances, and the jurisdiction and the different laws involved. The Group monitors the status of pending legal proceedings and consults with experts on legal and tax matters on a regular basis. It is therefore possible that the provisions for the Group’s legal proceedings and litigation may vary as the result of future developments in pending matters.

Litigation

Various legal proceedings, claims and governmental investigations are pending against the Group on a wide range of topics, including car safety, emissions and fuel economy, early warning reporting, dealer, supplier and other contractual relationships, intellectual property rights and product warranties matters. Some of these proceedings allege defects in specific component parts or systems (including airbags, seatbelts, brakes, transmissions, engines and fuel systems) in various car models or allege general design defects relating to car handling and stability, sudden unintended movement or crashworthiness. These proceedings seek recovery for damage to property, personal injuries or wrongful death and in some cases could include a claim for exemplary or punitive damages. Adverse decisions in one or more of these proceedings could require the Group to pay substantial damages, or undertake service actions, recall campaigns or other costly actions.

Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of individual matters is not predictable with assurance. An accrual is established in connection with pending or threatened litigation if a loss is probable and a reliable estimate can be made. Since these accruals represent estimates, it is reasonably possible that the resolution of some of these matters could require the Group to make payments in excess of the amounts accrued. It is also reasonably possible that the resolution of some of the matters for which accruals could not be made may require the Group to make payments in an amount or range of amounts that could not be reasonably estimated.

The term “reasonably possible” is used herein to mean that the chance of a future transaction or event occurring is more than remote but less than probable. Although the final resolution of any such matters could have a material effect on the Group’s operating results for the particular reporting period in which an adjustment of the estimated reserve is recorded, it is believed that any resulting adjustment would not materially affect the consolidated financial position of the Group.

The Group’s entities participate in a group Italian tax consolidation under Ferrari N.V..

In September 2018, the Group signed an agreement with the Italian Revenue Agency in relation to the Patent Box tax regime, which provides tax benefits for companies that generate income through the use, both direct and indirect, of copyrights, patents, trademarks, designs and know-how. The agreement relates to the five-year period from 2015 to 2019. The Group applied the Patent Box tax regime for the calculation of income taxes starting in the third quarter of 2018. The Patent Box tax benefit relating to the years 2015 to 2017 was recorded within taxes relating to prior periods in 2018 and amounted to €141 million, of which €139 million was from direct use and €2 million was from indirect use of copyrights, patents, trademarks, designs and know-how. The estimated Patent Box tax benefit relating to the year 2018 amounted to €61 million and is recorded within current tax expense for 2018.

The reconciliation between actual income tax expense and the theoretical income tax expense, calculated on the basis of the theoretical tax rates in effect in Italy, is as follows:

	For the years ended December 31,
	2018		2017		2016
	(€ thousand)
Theoretical income tax expense, net of IRAP	192,706		179,077		156,022
Tax effect on:
Permanent and other differences	(58,877	)	(7,061	)	(10,219	)
Effect of changes in tax rate and tax regulations	—		4,862		1,280
Differences between foreign tax rates and the theoretical Italian tax rate and tax holidays	1,216		2,344		853
Taxes relating to prior years	(145,084	)	(1,232	)	(3,567	)
Withholding tax on earnings	1,514		2,420		2,017
Total income tax (benefit)/expense, net of IRAP	(8,525	)	180,410		146,386
Effective tax rate, net of IRAP	(1.1	)%	24.2	%	25.8	%
IRAP (current and deferred)	24,842		28,350		21,249
Total income tax expense	16,317		208,760		167,635

Theoretical income taxes have been calculated at the corporate income tax rate in Italy for the respective years, which was 24.0 percent for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and 27.5 percent for the year ended December 31, 2016 (a change in Italian tax law approved a reduction in the corporate income tax rate from 27.5 percent to 24 percent, effective from 2017).

In order to facilitate the understanding of the tax rate reconciliation presented above, income tax expense has been presented net of Italian Regional Income Tax (“IRAP”). IRAP is calculated on a measure of income defined by the Italian Civil Code as the difference between operating revenues and costs, before financial income and expense, and in particular before the cost of fixed-term employees, credit losses and any interest included in lease payments. IRAP is applied on the tax base at 3.9 percent for each of the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

The decrease in the effective tax rate net of IRAP from 24.2 percent in 2017 to (1.1) percent in 2018 was primarily attributable to the positive impact of the Patent Box, as described above, including the benefit relating to the years 2015 to 2017 which was recognized in 2018. The Patent Box benefit relating to the years 2015 to 2017 is included within “taxes relating to prior years” and the Patent Box benefit relating to 2018 is included within “permanent and other differences” in the tax rate reconciliation above.

The decrease in the effective tax rate net of IRAP from 25.8 percent in 2016 to 24.2 percent in 2017 was primarily attributable to the combined effects of a reduction in the Italian corporate income tax rate from 27.5 percent to 24 percent (effective from 2017), deductions related to eligible research and development costs and depreciation of fixed assets in accordance with tax regulations in Italy, partially offset by a decrease in net deferred tax assets due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that was enacted into law in the U.S on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act includes various changes to the tax law, including a reduction in the corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent effective January 1, 2018. The Group recognized the effects of the changes in the tax rate and laws resulting from the Tax Act in 2017, which resulted in a €4,646 thousand decrease in net deferred tax assets, recorded through the income statement, related to adjusting deferred tax assets and liabilities to reflect the new corporate tax rate. The accounting for the effects of the rate change on deferred tax balances is complete and no provisional amounts were recorded for this item.

The analysis of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 2018 and 2017, is as follows:

	At December 31,
	2018		2017
	(€ thousand)

The decision to recognize deferred tax assets is made for each company in the Group by assessing whether the conditions exist for the future recoverability of such assets by taking into account the basis of the most recent forecasts from budgets and business plans.

Deferred taxes on the undistributed earnings of subsidiaries have not been recognized, except in cases where it is probable the distribution will occur in the foreseeable future. For additional information, at December 31, 2018, the aggregate amount of temporary differences related to remaining distributable earnings of the Group’s subsidiaries where deferred tax liabilities have not been recognized amounted to €92,437 thousand.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares in issue. The following table provides the amounts used in the calculation of basic earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016:

		For the years ended December 31,

Goodwill [Abstract]

GOODWILL

GOODWILL

At December 31, 2018 and 2017 goodwill amounted to €785,182 thousand.

In accordance with IAS 36, goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if facts or circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Impairment testing is performed by comparing the carrying amount and the recoverable amount of the CGU. The recoverable amount of the CGU is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use.

The assumptions used in this process represent management’s best estimate for the period under consideration. The estimate of the value in use of the CGU for purposes of performing the annual impairment test was based on the following assumptions:

• The expected future cash flows covering the period from 2019 through 2023 have been derived from the Ferrari business plan. In particular the estimate considers expected EBITDA adjusted to reflect the expected capital expenditure. These cash flows relate to the CGU in its condition when preparing the financial statements and exclude the estimated cash flows that might arise from restructuring plans or other structural changes. Volumes and sales mix used for estimating the future cash flows are based on assumptions that are considered reasonable and sustainable and represent the best estimate of expected conditions regarding market trends for the CGU over the period considered.

• The expected future cash flows include a normalized terminal period used to estimate the future results beyond the time period explicitly considered, which were calculated by using the specific medium/long-term growth rate for the sector equal to 2.0 percent in 2018 (2.0 percent in 2017 and 2016).

• The expected future cash flows have been estimated in Euro, and discounted using a post-tax discount rate appropriate for that currency, determined by using a base WACC of 7.0 percent in 2018 (7.0 percent in 2017 and 2016). The WACC used reflects the current market assessment of the time value of money for the period being considered and the risks specific to the CGU under consideration.

The recoverable amount of the CGU was significantly higher than its carrying amount. Furthermore, the exclusivity of the business, its historical profitability and its future earnings prospects indicate that the carrying amount of the goodwill will continue to be recoverable, even in the event of difficult economic and market conditions.

(1)    Other mainly includes the Australian Dollar, the Hong Kong Dollar and the Canadian Dollar.

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, all derivative financial instruments had a maturity of twelve months or less.

Cash flow hedges

The effects recognized in the consolidated income statement mainly relate to currency risk management and in particular the exposure to fluctuations in the Euro/U.S. Dollar exchange rate for sales in U.S. Dollars.

The policy of the Group for managing foreign currency risk normally requires hedging of a portion of projected future cash flows from trading activities and orders acquired (or contracts in progress) in foreign currencies which will occur within the following 12 months. It is considered reasonable that the hedging effect arising from this and recorded in the cash flow hedge reserve will be recognized in the consolidated income statement, mainly during the following 12 months.

Derivatives relating to currency risk management are treated as cash flow hedges where the derivative qualifies for hedge accounting. The amount recorded in the cash flow hedge reserve will be recognized in the consolidated income statement according to the timing of the flows of the underlying transaction.

The Group reclassified gains and losses, net of the tax effect, from other comprehensive income/(loss) to the consolidated income statement as follows:

	For the years ended December 31,
	2018		2017		2016
	(€ thousand)
Net revenues/(costs)	3,777		19,724		(69,368	)

The ineffectiveness of cash flow hedges was not material for the years 2018, 2017 and 2016.

Share capital

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the fully paid up share capital of the Company was €2,504 thousand, consisting of 193,923,499 common shares and 56,497,618 special voting shares, all with a nominal value of €0.01 per share. At December 31, 2018, the Company had 6,002,843 common shares and 4,744 special voting shares held in treasury, while at December 31, 2017, the Company had 4,969,625 common shares and 4,099 special voting shares held in treasury.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the opening and closing number of outstanding common shares and outstanding special voting shares:

	Common Shares		Special Voting Shares		Total

(1) Includes shares repurchased between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2018 based on the transaction trade date.

(2) Relates to the deregistration of special voting shares from the loyalty register.

The loyalty voting structure

The purpose of the loyalty voting structure is to reward ownership of the Company’s common shares and to promote stability of the Company’s shareholder base by granting long-term shareholders of the Company with special voting shares. Following the Separation, Exor N.V. (“Exor”) and Piero Ferrari participate in the Company’s loyalty voting program and, therefore, effectively hold two votes for each of the common shares they hold. Investors who purchased common shares in the initial public offering may elect to participate in the loyalty voting program by registering their common shares in the loyalty share register and holding them for three years. The loyalty voting program will be effected by means of the issue of special voting shares to eligible holders of common shares. Each special voting share entitles the holder to exercise one vote at the Company’s shareholders meeting. Only a minimal dividend accrues to the special voting shares allocated to a separate special dividend reserve, and the special voting shares do not carry any entitlement to any other reserve of the Group. The special voting shares have only immaterial economic entitlements and, as a result, do not impact the Company’s earnings per share calculation.

Retained earnings and other reserves

Retained earnings and other reserves includes:

• a share premium reserve of €5,768,544 thousand at December 31, 2018 (€5,768,544 thousand at December 31, 2017), which primarily originated from the issuance of common shares pursuant to the restructuring activities undertaken as part of the Separation.

• a legal reserve of €29 thousand at December 31, 2018 and €8 thousand at December 31, 2017, determined in accordance with Dutch law.

• a treasury reserve of €100,143 thousand at December 31, 2018 and €50 thousand at December 31, 2017.

• a share-based compensation reserve of €52,198 thousand at December 31, 2018 and €29,707 thousand at December 31, 2017.

Following approval of the annual accounts by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the Shareholders on April 13, 2018, a dividend distribution of €0.71 per common share was approved, corresponding to a total distribution of €133,939 thousand (of which €133,095 thousand was paid in 2018). The distribution was made from the retained earnings reserve.

Following approval of the annual accounts by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the Shareholders on April 14, 2017, a cash distribution of €0.635 per common share was approved, corresponding to a total distribution of €119,985 thousand. The distribution was made from the share premium reserve which is a distributable reserve under Dutch law.

Following approval of the annual accounts by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the Shareholders on April 15, 2016, a cash distribution of €0.46 per common share was approved, corresponding to a total distribution of €86,905 thousand. The distribution was made from the share premium reserve which is a distributable reserve under Dutch law.

On February 9, 2018, the Company announced its intention to launch a share repurchase program. The program is intended to optimize the capital structure of the Company. Shares repurchased may be used to meet the Company’s obligations arising from the equity incentive plan approved in 2017. As of December 31, 2018 the Company had repurchased 1,033,218 common shares for a total consideration of €100,093 thousand under the program.

Share-based Compensation

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Following the approval of the equity incentive plan by the Board of Directors in March 2017, the Shareholders approved in April 2017 an award to the former Chief Executive Officer under the Company’s equity incentive plan, which is applicable to members of the Senior Management Team (“SMT”) and key leaders of the Group. The grants of the PSUs and the RSUs, each representing the right to receive one common share of the Company, cover a five-year performance period from 2016 to 2020, consistent with the Company’s strategic horizon. In 2018 additional PSU and RSU awards were granted, subject to the Shareholders’ approval at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (which is currently expected to be held on April 12, 2019), to the new Chief Executive Officer and certain key employees of the Group under the equity incentive plan.

At December 31, 2018, none of the PSUs or RSUs were vested, and 33 thousand PSUs and 16 thousand RSUs were forfeited. Under the equity incentive plan, the total number of PSUs and RSUs outstanding at December 31, 2018 were 675 thousand and 113 thousand, respectively.

For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recognized €22,491 thousand and €28,179 thousand, respectively, as share-based compensation expense and an increase to other reserves in equity for the PSU awards and RSU awards. At December 31, 2018, unrecognized compensation expense amounted to €5,572 thousand and will be recognized over the remaining vesting period through 2020.

Performance Share Units

The Company awarded members of the SMT and key leaders a total target of approximately 237 thousand PSUs and 450 thousand PSUs to its Chief Executive Officer in 2017, and an additional total of approximately 21 thousand PSUs were awarded in 2018. The PSUs vest in three equal tranches in 2019, 2020 and 2021, subject to the achievement of a market performance condition related to Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”). The interim partial vesting periods are independent of one another and any under-achievement in one period can be offset by over-achievement in subsequent periods. The target amount of PSUs vests as follows based on the Company’s TSR ranking compared to an industry specific peer group of eight, including the Company, (“Peer Group”):

Ferrari TSR Ranking	% of Target Awards that Vest
	CEO	SMT and Key Leaders
1	150%	150%
2	120%	120%
3	100%	100%
4	75%	—
5	50%	—
>5	0%	—

The defined Peer Group is as follows:

Ferrari	Brunello Cucinelli	Burberry	Ferragamo
Hermes	LVMH	Moncler	Richemont

The total number of shares that will eventually be issued upon vesting of the PSUs may vary from the original award, depending on the level of TSR performance achieved compared to the Peer Group.

The performance period for the PSUs commenced on January 1, 2016. The fair value of the awards used for accounting purposes was measured at the grant date using a Monte Carlo Simulation model. The range of the fair value of the PSUs that were awarded in 2017 is €59.36 to €72.06 per share and the range of the fair value of the PSUs that were awarded in 2018 is €61.30 and €111.92.

The key assumptions utilized to calculate the grant-date fair values for these awards are summarized below:

Key assumptions	PSU Awards Granted in 2017	PSU Awards Granted in 2018
Grant date share price	€66.85	€113.70
Expected volatility	17.4%	16.7%
Dividend yield	1.2%	0.9%
Risk-free rate	0%	0%

The expected volatility was based on the observed volatility of the Peer Group. The risk-free rate was based on the iBoxx sovereign Eurozone yield.

Retention Restricted Share Units

The Company awarded members of the SMT and key leaders a total of approximately 119 thousand RSUs in 2017, and an additional 10 thousand RSUs were awarded in 2018, including to the Chief Executive Officer. The RSU awards granted are conditional on a recipient’s continued service to the Company, as described below. The RSUs, each of which represents the right to receive one common share of the Company, will vest in three equal tranches in 2019, 2020 and 2021, subject to continued employment with the Company at the time of vesting.

The performance period for the RSUs commenced on January 1, 2016. The fair value of the awards was measured using the share price at the grant date adjusted for the present value of future distributions which employees will not receive during the vesting period. The range of the fair value of the RSUs awarded in 2017 is €63.00 to €64.64 per share and the range of the fair value of the RSUs awarded in 2018 is €110.76 to €112.99.

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

The Group’s provisions for employee benefits are as follows:

	At December 31,
	2018	2017
	(€ thousand)
Present value of defined benefit obligations:
Italian employee severance indemnity (TFR)	21,195	22,641
Pension plans	485	604
Total present value of defined benefit obligations	21,680	23,245
Other provisions for employees	64,895	60,914
Total provisions for employee benefits	86,575	84,159

Defined contribution plan

The Group recognizes the cost for defined contribution plans over the period in which the employee renders service and classifies this by function in cost of sales, selling, general and administrative costs and research and development costs. The total income statement expense for defined contributions plans in the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 was €11,930 thousand, €11,987 thousand and €9,719 thousand, respectively.

Defined benefit obligations

Italian employee severance indemnity (TFR)

Trattamento di fine rapporto or “TFR” relates to the amounts that employees in Italy are entitled to receive when they leave the company and is calculated based on the period of employment and the taxable earnings of each employee. Under certain conditions the entitlement may be partially advanced to an employee during the employee’s working life.

The Italian legislation regarding this scheme was amended by Law 296 of 27 December 2006 and subsequent decrees and regulations issued in the first part of 2007. Under these amendments, companies with at least 50 employees are obliged to transfer the TFR to the “Treasury fund” managed by the Italian state-owned social security body (“INPS”) or to supplementary pension funds. Prior to the amendments, accruing TFR for employees of all Italian companies could be managed by the company itself. Consequently, the Italian companies’ obligation to INPS and the contributions to supplementary pension funds take the form, under IAS 19 revised, of “Defined contribution plans” whereas the amounts recorded in the provision for employee severance pay retain the nature of “Defined benefit plans”. Accordingly, the provision for employee severance indemnity in Italy consists of the residual obligation for TFR until December 31, 2006. This is an unfunded defined benefit plan as the benefits have already been almost entirely earned, with the sole exception of future revaluations. Since 2007 the scheme has been classified as a defined contribution plan, and the Group recognizes the associated cost, being the required contributions to the pension funds, over the period in which the employee renders service.

Pension plans

Group companies, primarily in Germany sponsor non-contributory defined benefit pension plans, for which the Group meets the benefit payment obligation when it falls due. Benefits provided depends on the employee’s length of service and their salary in the final years leading up to retirement.

The expected benefit payments for the defined benefit obligations are as follows:

	Expected benefit payments
	TFR	Pension plans
	(€ thousand)
2019	1,167	47
2020	1,413	48
2021	1,754	48

2023	1,746	4
Beyond 2023	6,750	685

The following table summarizes the changes in the defined benefit obligations:

(*) Relates to actuarial losses/(gains) from financial assumptions.

Amounts recognized in the consolidated income statement are as follows:

	For the years ended December 31,
	2018			2017			2016
	TFR	Pension plans	Total	TFR	Pension plans	Total	TFR	Pension plans		Total

Total recognized in the consolidated income statement	—	55	55	—	142	142	391	(37	)	354

The discount rates used for the measurement of the Italian TFR obligation are based on yields of high-quality (AA rated) fixed income securities for which the timing and amounts of payments match the timing and amounts of the projected benefit payments. For this plan, the single weighted average discount rate that reflects the estimated timing and amount of the scheme future benefit payments for 2018 is equal to 1.7 percent (1.5 percent in 2017 and 1.3 percent in 2016). The average duration of the Italian TFR is approximately 9 years. Retirement or employee leaving rates are developed to reflect actual and projected Group experience and legal requirements for retirement in Italy.

The discount rates used for the measurement of the pension plan obligation (excluding TFR) and the interest expense/(income) of net period cost, are based on the rate of return on high-quality (AA rated) fixed income investments for which the timing and amounts of payments match the timing and amounts of the projected pension defined benefit plan which for 2018 was equal to approximately 0.8 percent (0.7 percent2017 and 1.3 percent in 2016). The average duration of the obligations is approximately 9 years.

Current service cost is recognized by function in cost of sales, selling, general and administrative costs or research and development costs.

The sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to changes in the weighted principal assumptions is:

	At December 31,
	2018			2017
	Changes in assumption of +1% discount rate		Changes in assumption of -1% discount rate	Changes in assumption of +1% discount rate		Changes in assumption of -1% discount rate
	(€ thousand)
Impact on defined benefit obligation	(1,647	)	1,891	(1,771	)	2,036

The above sensitivity analysis on TFR is based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognized in the statement of the financial position.

Other provisions for employees

Other provisions for employees consist of the expected future amounts payable to employees in connection with other remuneration schemes, which are not subject to actuarial valuation, including long-term bonus plans.

At December 31, 2018, other provisions for employees comprised long term bonus benefits amounting to €61,885 thousand (€58,090 thousand at December 31, 2017), jubilee benefits granted to certain employees by the Group in the event of achieving 30 years of service amounting to €2,955 thousand (€2,745 thousand at December 31, 2017), and other provisions for employees benefits amounting to €55 thousand (€79 thousand at December 31, 2017).

Warranty and recall campaigns provision

The warranty and recall campaigns provision represents the best estimate of commitments given by the Group for contractual, legal, or constructive obligations arising from product warranties given for a specified period of time. Such provisions are recognized on shipment of the car to the dealer.

The warranty and recall campaigns provision is estimated on the basis of the Group’s past experience and contractual terms. Related costs are recognized within cost of sales.

Takata airbag inflator recalls

On May 4, 2016, the United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”) published an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the November 3, 2015 Takata Consent Order regarding Takata airbags manufactured using non-desiccated Phase Stabilized Ammonium Nitrate (“PSAN”), expanding the scope of a prior recall under the Takata Consent Order. The recall is industry wide and replacement parts are limited as Takata is the single supplier. In compliance with the Amendment to the Takata Consent Order, on May 16, 2016, Takata submitted a defect information report (“DIR”) to NHTSA declaring the non-desiccated PSAN airbag inflators, including those sold by Takata to the Group,

defective.

Although the Group was not aware of any confirmed incidents or warranty claims relating to such airbag inflators mounted in its cars or that the airbag inflators were not performing as designed, as a result of the Amendment issued by NHTSA and the DIR issued by Takata, the Group initiated a global recall relating to certain cars produced between 2008 and 2011. Following a Third Amendment to the Coordinated Remedy Order (“ACRO”) published by NHTSA in December 2016 and an additional Takata DIR filed on January 3, 2017, the Group filed an additional DIR on January 10, 2017 to also include certain cars produced in 2012. As a result of internal assessments, in 2016 Ferrari decided to extend the recall campaign to include all cars produced in all model years based on priority groups and the timeline set by NHTSA.

As a result of these developments and due to the uncertainty of recoverability of the costs from Takata, an aggregate provision of €36,994 thousand was recognized within cost of sales in the year ended December 31, 2016. At December 31, 2018, the provision amounted to €24,513 thousand (€34,567 thousand at December 31, 2017), reflecting the current best estimate for future costs related to the entire recall campaign to be carried out by the Group. The decrease in the provision relates to ongoing recall activities as well as a partial release.

Legal proceedings and disputes

The provision for legal proceedings and disputes represents management’s best estimate of the expenditures expected to be required to settle or otherwise resolve legal proceedings and disputes. This class of claims relate to allegations by contractual counterparties that the Group has violated the terms of the arrangements, including by terminating the applicable relationships. Judgments in these proceedings may be issued in 2019 or beyond, although any such judgment may remain subject to judicial review. While the outcome of such proceedings is uncertain, any losses in excess of the provisions recorded are not expected to be material to the Group’s financial condition or results of operations.

The utilization of the provision for legal proceedings and disputes mainly relates to a pronouncement on a prior year’s legal dispute. Accruals to the provision for legal proceedings and disputes are recognized within other expenses, net.

Other risks

The provision for other risks are related to disputes and matters which are not subject to legal proceedings, including disputes with suppliers, distributors, employees and other parties.

The following table sets forth additional provisions to other risks recognized for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

Bonds

2023 Bond

On March 16, 2016, the Company issued 1.5 percent coupon notes due March 2023, having a principal of €500 million. The bond was issued at a discount for an issue price of 98.977 percent, resulting in net proceeds of €490,729 thousand after the debt discount and issuance costs. The net proceeds were used, together with additional cash held by the Company, to fully repay the €500 million Bridge Loan under the Facility. The bond is unrated and was admitted to trading on the regulated market of the Irish Stock Exchange. The amount outstanding at December 31, 2018 of €500,197 thousand includes accrued interest of €5,938 thousand (€498,894 thousand including accrued interest of €5,938 thousand at December 31, 2017).

2021 Bond

On November 16, 2017, the Company issued 0.25 percent coupon notes due January 2021, having a principal of €700 million. The bond was issued at a discount for an issue price of 99.557 percent, resulting in net proceeds of €694,172 thousand after the debt discount and issuance costs. The net proceeds were primarily used to repay the Term Loan. The bond is unrated and was admitted to trading on the regulated market of the Irish Stock Exchange. The amount outstanding at December 31, 2018 of €697,912 thousand includes accrued interest of €1,678 thousand (€694,623 thousand including accrued interest of €221 thousand at December 31, 2017).

The notes for both the 2023 Bond and the 2021 Bond 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. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, Ferrari was in compliance with the covenants of the notes.

Securitizations

Starting in 2016, FFS Inc has pursued a strategy of self-financing, further reducing dependency on intercompany funding and increasing the portion of self-liquidating debt with various securitization transactions. As of December 31, 2018, FFS Inc had the following revolving securitization programs:

• revolving securitization program for funding, which was increased up to $450 million in December 2018, 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 LIBOR plus a margin of 65 basis points. As of December 31, 2018 total proceeds net of repayments from the sales of financial receivables under the program were $424 million ($325 million at December 31, 2017). The securitization agreement requires the maintenance of an interest rate cap.

• revolving securitization program for funding, which was increased up to $250 million in October 2018, 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 LIBOR plus a margin of 65 basis points. As of December 31, 2018 total proceeds net of repayments from the sales of financial receivables under the program were $223 million ($222 million at December 31, 2017). The securitization agreement requires the maintenance of an interest rate cap.

• revolving securitization program for funding of up to $135 million by pledging credit lines to Ferrari customers secured by personal vehicle collections and personal guarantees in the United States as collateral. The notes bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the aggregate of LIBOR plus a margin of 120 basis points. As of December 31, 2018 total proceeds net of repayments from the sales of financial receivables under the program were $134 million ($120 million at December 31, 2017). The securitization agreement does not require an interest rate cap.

The funding limits of the revolving securitization programs have been increased since inception as the related receivables portfolios have finished.    

Cash collected from the settlement of receivables or lines of credit pledged as collateral is subject to certain restrictions regarding its use and is principally applied to repay principal and interest of the funding. Such cash amounted to €26,497 thousand at December 31, 2018 (€28,230 thousand at December 31, 2017).

Borrowings from banks

Borrowings from banks at December 31, 2018 mainly relate to financial liabilities of FFS Inc to support the financial services operations, and in particular (i) €30,694 thousand (€29,189 thousand at December 31, 2017) relating to a U.S. Dollar denominated credit facility for up to $50 million (drawn down for $35 million at December 31, 2018) and bearing interest at LIBOR plus a range of between 65 and 75 basis points; (ii) other borrowings from banks of €5,290 thousand (€8,870 thousand at December 31, 2017) relating to various short and medium term credit facilities.

The Facility

On November 30, 2015, the Company, as borrower and guarantor, and certain other members of the Group, as borrowers, entered into a €2.5 billion facility with a syndicate of banks (the “Facility”). At inception, the Facility comprised a bridge loan of €500 million (the “Bridge Loan”), a term loan of €1,500 million (the “Term Loan”) and a revolving credit facility of €500 million (the “RCF”).

In December 2015 the Bridge Loan and Term Loan were fully drawn down for the purposes of repaying financial liabilities with FCA, including the debt that originated from restructuring activities undertaken as part of the Separation. In March 2016, the Bridge Loan was fully repaid, primarily using the proceeds from the 2023 Bond. In 2016 and 2017 the Company made scheduled payments and voluntary prepayments, funded in part with the proceeds of the 2021 Bond, to fully repay the Term Loan.

At December 31, 2018 and 2017 the RCF was undrawn. Proceeds of the RCF may be used from time to time for general corporate and working capital purposes of the Group. The RCF has a maturity of five years from inception of the Facility.

Other debt

Other debt primarily relates to funding for operating activities of the Group.

Fair value measurement [Abstract]

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

IFRS 13 establishes a hierarchy that categorizes into three levels 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 December 31, 2018 and 2017:

		At December 31, 2018
	Note	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Total
		(€ thousand)
Cash and cash equivalents		793,664	—	—	793,664

Other financial liabilities	20	—	11,342	—	11,342
Total liabilities		—	11,342	—	11,342

		At December 31, 2017
	Note	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Total
		(€ thousand)
Cash and cash equivalents		647,706	—	—	647,706
Investments and other financial assets - Liberty Media Shares	17	5,705	—	—	5,705
Current financial assets	20	—	11,686	—	11,686
Total assets		653,411	11,686	—	665,097
Other financial liabilities	20	—	1,444	—	1,444
Total liabilities		—	1,444	—	1,444

There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels between 2017 and 2018.

The fair value of current financial assets and other financial liabilities is related to derivative financial instruments and is measured by taking into consideration market parameters at the balance sheet date, using valuation techniques widely accepted in the financial business environment. In particular, the fair value of forward contracts, currency swaps and interest rate caps is determined by taking the prevailing foreign currency exchange rate and interest rates, as applicable, at the balance sheet date.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents usually approximates fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments, which consist primarily of bank current 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 represents carrying amount and fair value for the most relevant categories of financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

		At December 31,
		2018		2017
	Note	Carrying amount	Fair value	Carrying amount	Fair value
		(€ thousand)

QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL RISKS

Qualitative and quantitative information on financial risks [Abstract]

QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL RISKS

QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL RISKS

The Group is exposed to the following financial risks connected with its operations:

• financial market risk (principally relating to foreign currency exchange rates, and to a lesser extent, interest rates), as the Group operates internationally in different currencies;

• liquidity risk, with particular reference to the availability of funds and access to the credit market, should the Group require, and to financial instruments in general;

• credit risk, arising both from its normal commercial relations with final clients and dealers, and its financing activities.

These risks could significantly affect the Group’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and for this reason the Group identifies and monitors these risks, in order to detect potential negative effects in advance and take the necessary action to mitigate them, primarily through its operating and financing activities and if required, through the use of derivative financial instruments.

The following section provides qualitative and quantitative disclosures on the effect that these risks may have upon the Group. The quantitative data reported in the following section does not have any predictive value. In particular, the sensitivity analysis on finance market risks does not reflect the complexity of the market or the reaction which may result from any changes that are assumed to take place.

Financial market risks

Due to the nature of the Group’s business, the Group is exposed to a variety of market risks, including foreign currency exchange rate risk and to a lesser extent, interest rate risk.

The Group’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk arises from the geographic distribution of the Group’s shipments, as the Group generally sells its models in the currencies of the various markets in which the Group operates, while the Group’s industrial activities are all based in Italy, and primarily denominated in Euro.

The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk arises from the need to fund certain activities and the necessity to deploy surplus funds. Changes in market interest rates may have the effect of either increasing or decreasing the Group’s net profit/(loss), thereby indirectly affecting the costs and returns of financing and investing transactions.

These risks could significantly affect the Group’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and for this reason these risks are identified and monitored, in order to detect potential negative effects in advance and take the necessary actions to mitigate them, primarily through the Group’s operating and financing activities, and if required, through the use of derivative financial instruments.

The Group has in place various risk management policies, which primarily relate to foreign exchange, interest rate and liquidity risks. The Group’s risk management policies permit derivatives to be used for managing exposures to foreign exchange rates and interest rates. Counterparties to these agreements are major financial institutions. Derivatives cannot be entered into for speculative purposes.

In particular, the Group used derivative financial instruments as cash flow hedges for the purpose of fixing the foreign currency exchange rate at which a predetermined proportion of forecasted transactions denominated in foreign currencies will be accounted for.    Accordingly, as a result of applying risk management policies with respect to foreign currency exchange exposure, the Group’s results of operations have not been fully exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. However, despite these risk management policies and hedging transactions, sudden adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates could have a significant effect on the Group’s earnings and cash flows.

The Group also enters into interest rate caps as requested by certain of its securitization agreements.

Information on the fair value of derivative financial instruments held is provided in Note 20.

Information on foreign currency exchange rate risk

The Group is exposed to risk resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which can affect its earnings and equity. In particular:

• Where a Group company incurs costs in a currency different from that of its revenues, any change in foreign currency exchange rates can affect the operating results of that company. In 2018, the total trade flows exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk amounted to the equivalent of 49 percent of the Group’s turnover (51 percent in 2017).

• The main foreign currency exchange rate to which the Group is exposed is the Euro/U.S. Dollar for sales in U.S. Dollar in the United States and other markets where the U.S. Dollar is the reference currency. In 2018, the value of commercial activity exposed to fluctuations in the Euro/U.S. Dollar exchange rate accounted for approximately 57 percent (62 percent in 2017) of the total currency risk from commercial activity. In 2018, the commercial activity exposed to the Euro/Pound Sterling exchange rate exceeded 10 percent (as in 2017) of the total currency risk from commercial activity. Other significant exposures included the exchange rate between the Euro and the following currencies: Japanese Yen, Chinese Renminbi, Swiss Franc, Canadian Dollar and Australian Dollar. None of these exposures, taken individually, exceeded 10 percent of the Group’s total foreign currency exchange rate exposure for commercial activity in 2018. It is the Group’s policy to use derivative financial instruments to hedge up to 90 percent of certain exposures to foreign currency exchange risk for up to twelve months.

• Several subsidiaries are located in countries that are outside the Eurozone, in particular the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Japan, Australia and Singapore. As the Group’s reporting currency is the Euro, the income statements of those companies are converted into Euro using the average exchange rate for the period and, even if revenues and margins are unchanged in local currency, changes in exchange rates can impact the amount of revenues, costs and profit as restated in Euro.

• The amount of assets and liabilities of consolidated companies that report in a currency other than the Euro may vary from period to period as a result of changes in exchange rates. The effects of these changes are recognized directly in equity as a component of other comprehensive income/(loss) under gains/(losses) from currency translation differences.

The Group monitors its principal exposure to conversion exchange risk, although there was no specific hedging in this respect at the reporting date.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on reporting monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the period or in previous financial statements, are recognized in the consolidated income statement within the net financial income/(expenses) line item or as cost of sales for charges arising from financial services companies.

The impact of foreign currency exchange rate differences recorded within financial income/(expenses) for the year ended December 31, 2018, except for those arising on financial instruments measured at fair value, amounted to net losses of €13,293 thousand (net losses of €18,059 thousand and net gains of €8,335 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively).

The impact of foreign currency exchange rate differences arising from financial services activities recognized under cost of sales, except for those arising on financial instruments measured at fair value, amounted to net gains of €58,808 thousand in 2016. Following the deconsolidation of FFS GmbH in November 2016, all of the Group’s financial services activities are conducted in the functional currency of the related financial services companies, therefore, such impact in 2018 and 2017 was nil.

Except as noted above, there have been no substantial changes in 2018 in the nature or structure of exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk or in the Group’s hedging policies.

The potential decrease in fair value of derivative financial instruments held by the Group at December 31, 2018 to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risk, which would arise in the case of a hypothetical, immediate and adverse change of 10 percent in the exchange rates of the major foreign currencies with the Euro, would be approximately €106,400 thousand (€45,439 thousand at December 31, 2017). Receivables, payables and future trade flows for which hedges have been put in place were not included in the analysis. It is reasonable to assume that changes in foreign currency exchange rates will produce the opposite effect, of an equal or greater amount, on the underlying transactions that have been hedged.

Information on interest rate risk

The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk, though less significant, arises from the need to fund financial services activities and the necessity to deploy surplus funds. Changes in market interest rates may have the effect of either increasing or decreasing the Group’s net profit/(loss), thereby indirectly affecting the costs and returns of financing and investing transactions.

The Group’s most significant floating rate financial assets at December 31, 2018 were cash and cash equivalents and certain receivables from financing activities (related to client and dealer financing), while 37 percent of the Group’s gross debt bears floating rates of interest. At December 31, 2018, a decrease of 10 basis points in interest rates on floating rate financial assets and debt, with all other variables held constant, would have resulted in a decrease in profit before taxes of €251 thousand on an annual basis (an decrease of €225 thousand at December 31, 2017). The analysis is based on the assumption that floating rate financial assets and debt which expires during the projected 12-month period will be renewed or reinvested in similar instruments, bearing the hypothetical short-term interest rates.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises if the Group is unable to obtain the funds needed to carry out its operations under economic conditions. The main determinant of the Group’s liquidity position is the cash generated by or used in operating and investing activities.

From an operating point of view, the Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring cash flows and keeping an adequate level of funds at its disposal. The main funding operations and investments in cash and marketable securities of the Group are centrally managed or supervised by the treasury department with the aim of ensuring effective and efficient management of the Group’s liquidity. The Group has established series of policies which are managed or supervised centrally by the treasury department with the purpose of optimizing the management of funds and reducing liquidity risk which include:

•centralizing liquidity management through the use of cash pooling arrangement

•maintaining a conservative level of available liquidity

•diversifying sources of funding

•obtaining adequate credit lines

•monitoring future liquidity requirements on the basis of business planning

Intercompany financing between Group entities is not restricted other than through the application of covenants requiring that transactions with related parties be conducted at arm’s length terms.

Details on the maturity profile of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities and on the structure of derivative financial instruments are provided in Notes 20 and 26. Details of the repayment of derivative financial instruments are provided in Note 20.

The Group has a revolving credit facility of €500 million, which was entirely undrawn at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The Group believes that the funds currently available to it, in addition to those that will be generated from operating activities, will enable Ferrari to satisfy the requirements of its investing activities and working capital needs, fulfill its obligations to repay its debt and ensure an appropriate level of operating and strategic flexibility. The Group, therefore believes there is no significant risk of a lack of liquidity.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of economic loss arising from the failure to collect a receivable. Credit risk encompasses the direct risk of default and the risk of a deterioration of the creditworthiness of the counterparty.

The maximum credit risk to which the Group is theoretically exposed at December 31, 2018 is represented by the carrying amounts of the financial assets stated in the consolidated statement of financial position sheet and the nominal value of the guarantees provided.

Dealers and clients are subject to a specific evaluation of their creditworthiness. Additionally, it is Group practice to obtain financial guarantees against risks associated with credit granted for the purchase of cars and parts. These guarantees are further strengthened, where possible, by retaining title on cars subject to financing agreement.

Credit positions of material significance are evaluated on an individual basis. Where objective evidence exists that they are uncollectible, in whole or in part, specific write-downs are recognized. The amount of the write-down is based on an estimate of the recoverable cash flows, timing of those cash flows, the cost of recovery and the fair value of any guarantees received.

Receivables from financing activities amounting to €878,496 thousand at December 31, 2018 (€732,947 thousand at December 31, 2017) are shown net of the allowance for doubtful accounts amounting to €6,457 thousand (€6,948 thousand at December 31, 2017). After considering the allowance for doubtful accounts, €53,800 thousand of receivables were overdue (€11,943 thousand at December 31, 2017). Therefore, overdue receivables represent a minor portion of receivables from financing activities.

Receivables from financing activities relate entirely to the financial services portfolio in the United States and such receivables are generally secured on the titles of cars or other guarantees.

Trade receivables amounting to €211,399 thousand at December 31, 2018 (€239,410 thousand at December 31, 2017) are shown net of the allowance for doubtful accounts amounting to €24,346 thousand (€21,993 thousand at December 31, 2017). After considering the allowance for doubtful accounts, €36,772 thousand of receivables were overdue (€32,336 thousand at December 31, 2017).

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)

12 Months Ended

Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

New Standards, Amendments and Interpretations

New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2018

The following new standards and amendments that are applicable from January 1, 2018 were adopted by the Group for the preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 applies to all revenues arising from contracts with customers (unless those contracts are in the scope of other standards) and replaces IAS 18 - Revenue, IAS 11 - Construction Contracts and related interpretations. The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard establishes a five step model to recognize revenue in accordance with this core principle. The Group adopted IFRS 15 and related amendments using the modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initial adoption (if any) recognized at the date of initial application of January 1, 2018. The Group analyzed each of its revenue streams by applying the five-step model and concluded that its accounting for revenue under IFRS 15 did not result in the recognition of a cumulative adjustment to opening retained earnings under the modified retrospective approach, nor did it have a material effect on the Group’s financial position or results of operations. The Group’s updated accounting policy for revenue recognition is provided further below.

IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments

The Group adopted IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments, which includes a logical approach for:

• the classification and measurement of financial instruments driven by cash flow characteristics and the business model in which an asset is held;

• a single “expected loss” impairment model for financial assets, and

• a substantially reformed approach for hedge accounting.

The Group analyzed each of its classes of financial assets, financial liabilities and derivative instruments and concluded that its accounting for financial instruments under IFRS 9 does not result in material changes compared to its accounting for financial instruments under IAS 39, therefore, there was no impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements upon initial adoption of the standard and related amendments. The Group’s updated accounting policy for financial instruments is provided further below.

Amendments to IFRS 2 - Share-Based Payment

The Group adopted Amendments to IFRS 2 - Share-Based Payment. The amendments provide requirements on the accounting for (i) the effects of vesting and non-vesting conditions on the measurement of cash-settled share-based payments; (ii) share-based payment transactions with a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations; and (iii) a modification to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment that changes the classification of the transaction from cash-settled to equity-settled. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 with early application permitted. The Group has applied the amendments to share-based payment transactions under the Group’s equity incentive plan that contains a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations, resulting in such transactions being classified in their entirety as equity-settled. There were no other effects from the adoption of these amendments.

IFRIC Interpretation 22 - Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration

The Group adopted IFRIC Interpretation 22 - Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration. The interpretation addresses the exchange rate to use in transactions that involve advance consideration paid or received in a foreign currency. The interpretation is effective on or after January 1, 2018. There was no effect from the adoption of this interpretation.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 Cycle

The Group adopted Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014-2016 Cycle. The improvements have amended two standards with effective date of January 1, 2018: i) IFRS 1 - First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards and ii) IAS 28 - Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. The amendments clarify, correct or remove redundant wording in the related IFRS Standards. 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 2019 or subsequent years are listed below:

IFRS 16 - Leases

In January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16 - Leases which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract and replaces the previous leases standard, IAS 17 - Leases. IFRS 16, which is not applicable to service contracts, but only applicable to leases or lease components of a contract, defines a lease as a contract that conveys to the customer (lessee) the right to use an asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases for the lessee as either operating leases or finance leases as required by IAS 17 and, instead, introduces a single lessee accounting model whereby a lessee is required to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term that is greater than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value, and to recognize depreciation of lease assets separately from interest on lease liabilities in the income statement. As IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17, a lessor will continue to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases and to account for those two types of leases differently.

The Group will apply IFRS 16 from its mandatory adoption date of January 1, 2019. The Group intends to apply the simplified transition approach and not restate comparative amounts for the year prior to adoption. Upon adoption, right-of-use assets are measured at the amount of the related lease liabilities, adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease expenses. The Group elected to use the exemptions permitted by the standard on lease contracts for which the lease terms ends within 12 months of the date of initial application, and lease contracts for which the underlying asset is of low value.

The main contracts of the Group within the scope of IFRS 16 relate to Ferrari stores and industrial equipment. As of January 1, 2019, after considering the exemptions mentioned above, the Group has non-cancellable operating lease commitments of approximately €72 million. Of these commitments, the Group expects to recognize right-of-use assets (after adjustments for prepayments and accrued lease payments recognized as at December 31, 2018) and related lease liabilities of €61 million. The Group expect no significant impact from the application of the new standard on net profit and cash flow from operating activities. Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the fixed or in substance fixed lease payments over the lease term that have not been paid at the date of adoption. The lease term includes both the non-cancellable periods for which the Group has the right to use the underlying assets and also any renewal periods if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise the related renewal option. The discount rate was determined taking into consideration country risk, currency, lease term and the Group’s credit spread. Lease liabilities do not include any non-lease components that may be included in the related contracts.

The Group does not expect to recognize any deferred tax assets or liabilities in respect of temporary differences arising on initial recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as the recognition does not affect accounting profit or taxable profit. No significant impact is expected on the financial statements for i) the Group’s lease agreements previously classified as finance leases under IAS 17 and ii) the Group’s activities as lessor.

Other amendments and interpretations not yet effective

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. IFRS 17 is effective on or after January 1, 2021 with early adoption allowed if IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments are also applied. The Group does not expect any impact from the adoption of this standard.

In June 2017 the IASB issued IFRIC Interpretation 23 - Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments which provides requirements regarding how to reflect uncertainties in accounting for income taxes. The interpretation is effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of this interpretation.

In October 2017 the IASB issued Amendments to IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments that allow, under certain conditions, for a prepayable financial asset with negative compensation payments to be measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income. The amendments also contain a clarification relating to the accounting for a modification or exchange of a financial liability measured at amortized cost that does not result in the derecognition of the financial liability. The amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect any impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In October 2017 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 28 - Long Term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures to clarify that an entity applies IFRS 9 to long-term interests in an associate or joint venture that form part of the net investment in the associate or joint venture but to which the equity method is not applied. The amendment is effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect a material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In December 2017 the IASB issued Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2015 - 2017 Cycle, which has amendments to the following four Standards: IFRS 3 - Business Combinations, in relation to obtaining control of a business which was previously accounted for as an interest in a joint operation, IFRS 11- Joint Arrangements, in relation to obtaining joint control of a business which was previously accounted for as a joint operation, IAS 12 - Income Taxes, clarifying the treatment of taxes in relation to dividend payments and IAS 23 - Borrowing Costs, clarifying the treatment of borrowings which were previously capitalized when the related asset is ready for its intended use or sale. The amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In February 2018 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 19 - Employee Benefits. When there is a change to a defined benefit plan (an amendment, curtailment or settlement) the amendments require that a company use the updated assumptions from the remeasurement of a net defined benefit liability or asset to determine current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the reporting period after the change to the plan. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2019. The Group does not expect a material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In October 2018 the IASB issued narrow scope amendments to IFRS 3 - Business Combinations to improve the definition of a business. The amendments aim to help companies determine whether an acquisition made is of a business or a group of assets. The amended definition emphasizes that the output of a business is to provide goods and services to customers, whereas the previous definition focused on returns in the form of dividends, lower costs or other economic benefits to investors and others. In addition to amending the definition of a business, supplementary guidance is provided. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2020. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

In October 2018 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors to clarify the definition of ‘material’, as well as how materiality should be applied by including in the definition guidance that is included elsewhere in IFRS standards. In addition, the explanations accompanying the definition have been improved and the amendments ensure that the definition of material is consistent across all IFRS standards. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2020. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

Review of the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting

In March 2018 the IASB revised the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting, effective immediately for the IASB and the IFRS Interpretations Committee when setting future standards, and effective for annual reporting periods on or after January 1, 2020 for companies that use the Conceptual Framework to develop accounting policies when no IFRS Standard applies to a particular transaction, with early application permitted. Key changes include (i) increasing the prominence of stewardship in the objective of financial reporting; (ii)reinstating prudence as a component of neutrality, defined as the exercise of caution when making judgements under conditions of uncertainty; (iii)defining a reporting entity; (iv)revising the definitions of an asset and a liability; (v)removing the probability threshold for recognition, and adding guidance on derecognition; (vi)adding guidance on the information provided by different measurement bases, and explaining factors to consider when selecting a measurement basis; and (vii) stating that profit or loss is the primary performance indicator and income and expenses in other comprehensive income should be recycled where the relevance or faithful representation of the financial statements would be enhanced. The Group does not expect a material impact from the adoption of the revised Conception Framework for Financial Reporting.

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities over which the Group has control. Control is achieved when the Group has power over the investee, when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor’s returns. Subsidiaries are consolidated on a line by line basis from the date on which the Group achieves control. The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

The Group recognizes any non-controlling interests (“NCI”) in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s share of the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Net profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income/(loss) are attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income/(loss) of subsidiaries is attributed to owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

All significant intra-group balances and transactions and any unrealized gains and losses arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Subsidiaries are deconsolidated from the date when control ceases. When the Group ceases to have control over a subsidiary, it derecognizes the assets (including any goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary at their carrying amounts, derecognizes the carrying amount of non-controlling interests in the former subsidiary and recognizes the fair value of any consideration received from the transaction. Any retained interest in the former subsidiary is then remeasured to its fair value.

In 2016 the Group sold a majority stake in Ferrari Financial Services GmbH. From such date, the Group’s remaining interest has been remeasured at fair value and accounted for using the equity method.

Interest in Associates

Interests in associates

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but without having control or joint control over those policies. Associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting from the date significant influence is obtained.

Under the equity method, the investments are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group’s share of the profit/(loss) and other comprehensive income/(loss) of the investee. The Group’s share of the investee’s profit/(loss) is recognized in the consolidated income statement. Distributions received from an investee reduce the carrying amount of the investment. Post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income/(loss) are recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss) with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying amount of the investment.

Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associate. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.

When the Group’s share of the losses of an associate exceeds the Group’s interest in that associate, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date the investment ceases to be an associate or when it is classified as available-for-sale.

Interests in Joint Operations

Interests in joint operations

A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

When the Group undertakes its activities under joint operations, it recognizes in relation to its interest in the joint operation: (i) its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly, (ii) its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly, (iii) its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation, (iv) its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation, and (v) its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly.

Foreign Currency Transactions

Foreign currency transactions

The functional currency of the Group’s entities is the currency of their primary economic environment. In individual companies, transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the foreign currency exchange rate prevailing at that date. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on reporting monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the period or in previous financial statements are recognized in the consolidated income statement.

Consolidation of Foreign Entities

Consolidation of foreign entities

All assets and liabilities of foreign consolidated companies with a functional currency other than the Euro are translated using the closing rates at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position. Income and expenses are translated into Euro at the average foreign currency exchange rate for the period. Translation differences resulting from the application of this method are classified as currency translation differences within other comprehensive income/(loss) until the disposal of the investment. Average foreign currency exchange rates for the period are used to translate the cash flows of foreign subsidiaries in preparing the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Goodwill, assets acquired and liabilities assumed arising from the acquisition of entities with a functional currency other than the Euro are recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements in the functional currency and translated at the foreign currency exchange rate at the acquisition date. These balances are translated at subsequent balance sheet dates at the relevant foreign currency exchange rate.

Goodwill

Goodwill

Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Recoverability of goodwill

In accordance with IAS 36 - Impairment of Assets, goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if facts or circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired.

As the Group is composed of one operating segment, goodwill is tested at the Group level, which represents the lowest level within the Group at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes in accordance with IAS 36. The impairment test is performed by comparing the carrying amount (which mainly comprises property, plant and equipment, goodwill and capitalized development costs) and the recoverable amount of the CGU. The recoverable amount of the CGU is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use.

Development Costs, Patents, Concessions, Licenses and Other Intangible Assets

Development costs

Development costs for car project production and related components, engines and systems are recognized as an asset if, and only if, both of the following conditions under IAS 38 - Intangible Assets are met: that development costs can be measured reliably and that the technical feasibility of the product, volumes and pricing support the view that the development expenditure will generate future economic benefits. Capitalized development costs include all direct and indirect costs that may be directly attributed to the development process.

Capitalized development costs are amortized on a straight-line basis from the start of production over the estimated lifecycle of the model and the useful life of the components (generally between four and eight years). All other research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

In particular the Group incurs significant research and development costs through the Formula 1 racing activities. These costs are considered fundamental to the development of the sports and street car models and prototypes. The model for the Formula 1 racing activities continually evolves and as such these costs are expensed as incurred.

Patents, concessions and licenses

Separately acquired patents, concessions and licenses are initially recognized at cost. Patents, concessions and licenses acquired in a business combination are initially recognized at fair value. Patents, concessions and licenses are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful economic lives, which is generally between three and five years.

Other intangible assets

Other intangible assets mainly relate to the registration of trademarks and have been recognized in accordance with IAS 38 - Intangible Assets, where it is probable that the use of the asset will generate future economic benefits for the Group and where the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Other intangible assets are measured at cost less any impairment losses and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated life, which is generally between three and five years.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment

Cost

Property, plant and equipment is initially recognized at cost which comprises the purchase price, any costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, capitalized borrowing costs and any initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. Self-constructed assets are initially recognized at production cost. Subsequent expenditures and the cost of replacing parts of an asset are capitalized only if they increase the future economic benefits embodied in that asset. All other expenditures are expensed as incurred. When such replacement costs are capitalized, the carrying amount of the parts that are replaced is recognized as a loss in the period of replacement in the consolidated income statement.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:

	Depreciation rates
Industrial buildings	3% - 20%
Plant, machinery and equipment	5% - 22%
Other assets	12% - 25%

Land is not depreciated.

If the asset being depreciated consists of separately identifiable components whose useful lives differ from that of the other parts making up the asset, depreciation is charged separately for each of its component parts through application of the ‘component approach’.

Recoverability of non-current assets with definite useful lives

Non-current assets with definite useful lives include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. Intangible assets with definite useful lives mainly consist of capitalized development costs.

The Group periodically reviews the carrying amount of non-current assets with definite useful lives when events and circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired. Impairment tests are performed by comparing the carrying amount and the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (“CGU”). The recoverable amount is the higher of the CGU’s fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the CGU.

For the period covered by these Consolidated Financial Statements, the Group has not recognized any impairment charges for non-current assets with definite useful lives.

Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs

General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use.

All other borrowing costs are expensed in net financial expenses if related to the Group’s industrial activities or cost of sales if related to the Group’s financial services activities in the consolidated income statement, as incurred.

Impairment of Assets

Impairment of assets

The Group continuously monitors its operations to assess whether there is any indication that its intangible assets (including development costs) and its property, plant and equipment may be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently, if there is an indication that an asset may be impaired.

If indications of impairment are present, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The recoverable amount is determined for the individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case the asset is tested as part of the cash-generating unit (“CGU”) to which the asset belongs. A CGU is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. In assessing the value in use of an asset or CGU, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. An impairment loss is recognized if the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount.

Where an impairment loss for assets other than goodwill, subsequently no longer exists or has decreased, the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not in excess of the carrying amount that would have been recorded had no impairment loss been recognized. The reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated income statement immediately.

Financial Instruments

Financial instruments

Presentation

Current financial assets include trade receivables, receivables from financing activities, derivative financial instruments, other current financial assets and cash and cash equivalents.

Investments and other financial assets include investments accounted for using the equity method as well as other securities and non-current financial assets.

Financial liabilities include debt (which primarily includes bonds, securitizations and borrowings from banks), trade payables and other financial liabilities, which mainly include derivative financial instruments.

Measurement

Financial assets, other than investments accounted for using the equity method, and financial liabilities are measured in accordance with IFRS 9.

Except for investments accounted for using the equity method, the Group initially measures financial assets at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.

Equity instruments held by the Group are recognized at fair value through profit or loss. When market prices are not directly available, the fair value is measured using appropriate valuation techniques (e.g. discounted cash flow analysis based on market information available at the balance sheet date). As permitted by IFRS 9, equity investments for which there is no quoted market price in an active market and there is insufficient financial information in order to determine fair value may be measured at cost as an estimate of fair value.

Trade receivables and receivables from financing activities are originated in the ordinary course of business and held within a business model with the objective to hold the receivables in order to collect contractual cash flows that meet the ‘solely payments of principal and interest’ criterion under IFRS 9, therefore they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Receivables with maturities greater than one year are discounted to present value. Assessments are made regularly as to whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets may be impaired. Under IFRS 9, a forward-looking expected credit loss model must be applied when assessing impairment. In making impairment assessments, the Group applies the standard simplified approach to estimate the lifetime expected credit losses and considers its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the nature of the Group’s receivables and economic environment. If any such evidence exists, an impairment loss is recognized within financial expenses.

Financial liabilities, with the exception of derivative financial instruments, are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments are used for economic hedging purposes only in order to reduce currency risks. Derivative financial instruments qualify for hedge accounting only when at the inception of the hedge there is formal designation and documentation of the hedging relationship, the hedge is expected to be highly effective, its effectiveness can be reliably measured and it is highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which it is designated.

All derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value.

When derivative financial instruments qualify for hedge accounting, the following accounting treatments apply:

Cash flow hedges - Where a derivative financial instrument is designated as a hedge of the exposure to variability in future cash flows of a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecasted transaction and could affect the consolidated income statement, the effective portion of any gain or loss on the derivative financial instrument is recognized directly in other comprehensive income/(loss). The cumulative gain or loss is reclassified from other comprehensive income/(loss) to the consolidated income statement at the same time as the economic effect arising from the hedged item affects the consolidated income statement. The gain or loss associated with a hedge or part of a hedge that has become ineffective is recognized in the consolidated income statement immediately within net financial income/expenses. When a hedging instrument or hedge relationship is terminated but the hedged transaction is still expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss realized to the point of termination remains in other comprehensive income/(loss) and is recognized in the consolidated income statement at the same time as the underlying transaction occurs. If the hedged transaction is no longer probable, the cumulative unrealized gain or loss held in other comprehensive income/(loss) is recognized in the consolidated income statement immediately.

The Group does not use fair value hedges or hedges of a net investment.

If hedge accounting cannot be applied, the gains or losses from the fair value measurement of derivative financial instruments are recognized immediately within financial expenses.

Transfers of Financial Assets

Transfers of financial assets

The Group sells certain of its receivables from financing activities under securitization programs. Securitization transactions involve the sale of a financial receivables portfolio to a special purpose vehicle, which in turn finances the purchase of such financial receivables by issuing asset-backed securities in the form of notes whose repayment of principal and interest depends on the cash flows generated by the related financial receivables. The receivables sold as part of securitization programs are still consolidated until collection from the customer.

The Group may also sell certain of its trade receivables through factoring transactions without recourse. The Group derecognizes the financial assets when, and only when, the contractual rights and risks to the cash flows arising from the related financial assets are no longer held or the Group has transferred the financial assets. In the case of a transfer of financial assets, if the Group transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets, it derecognizes such assets and separately recognizes as assets or liabilities any rights and obligations created or retained in the transfer. On derecognition of financial assets, the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and the consideration received or receivable for the transfer of the assets is recognized within cost of sales in the consolidated income statement.

Trade Receivables

Trade receivables

Trade receivables are amounts due from clients for goods sold or services provided in the ordinary course of business. Trade receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, less any provision for allowances.

Inventories

Inventories

Inventories of raw materials, semi-finished products and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, cost being determined on a first-in first-out (FIFO) basis. The measurement of inventories includes the direct costs of materials, labor and indirect costs (variable and fixed). Purchase costs include ancillary costs. Prototypes are recognized at their estimated realizable value, if lower than production cost. Provision is made for obsolete and slow-moving raw materials, finished goods, spare parts and other supplies based on their expected future use and realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs for sale and distribution.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Employee Benefits

Employee benefits

Defined contribution plans

Costs arising from defined contribution plans are expensed as incurred.

Defined benefit plans

The Group’s net obligations are determined separately for each plan by estimating the present value of future benefits that employees have earned in the current and prior periods, and deducting the fair value of any plan assets. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is measured using actuarial techniques and actuarial assumptions that are unbiased and mutually compatible and attributes benefits to periods in which the obligation to provide post-employment benefits arise by using the Projected Unit Credit Method.

The components of the defined benefit cost are recognized as follows:

• the service costs are recognized in the consolidated income statement by function and presented in the relevant line items (cost of sales, selling, general and administrative costs, research and development costs, etc.);

• the net interest on the defined benefit liability is recognized in the consolidated income statement as net financial income /(expenses), and is determined by multiplying the net liability/(asset) by the discount rate used to discount obligations taking into account the effect of contributions and benefit payments made during the year; and

• the remeasurement components of the net obligations, which comprise actuarial gains and losses and any change in the effect of the asset ceiling are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income/(loss). These remeasurement components are not reclassified in the consolidated income statement in a subsequent period.

Other long-term employee benefits

The Group’s obligations represent the present value of future benefits that employees have earned in return for their service during the current and prior periods. Remeasurement components on other long-term employee benefits are recognized in the consolidated income statement in the period in which they arise.

Share-based Compensation

Share-based compensation

The Group has implemented an equity incentive plan that provides for the granting of share-based compensation to the Chief Executive Officer, all other members of the Senior Management Team (“SMT”) and key leaders. The equity incentive plan is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 2 - Share-based Payment, which requires the Company to recognize share-based compensation expense based on fair value of awards granted. Compensation expense for the equity-settled awards containing market performance conditions is measured at the grant date fair value of the award using the Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected volatility of the Company’s common stock, the dividend yield, interest rates and a correlation coefficient between the common stock and the relevant market index. The fair value of the awards which are conditional only on a recipient’s continued service to the Company is measured using the share price at the grant date adjusted for the present value of future distributions which employees will not receive during the vesting period.

Share-based compensation expense relating to the equity incentive plan is recognized over the service period within selling, general and administrative costs or cost of sales in the consolidated income statement depending on the function of the employee, with an offsetting increase to equity.

Share-based compensation

The Group accounts for its equity incentive plan in accordance with IFRS 2 - Share-based Payment, which requires the recognition of share-based compensation expense based on the fair value of the awards granted. Share-based compensation for equity-settled awards containing market performance conditions is measured at the grant date of the awards using the Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected volatility of our common stock, the dividend yield, interest rates and the correlation coefficient between our common stock and the relevant market index. The probability that the Group will achieve a certain level of Total Shareholder Return performance compared to the defined peer group is also considered. As a result, at the grant date management is required to make key assumptions and estimates regarding conditions that will occur in the future, which inherently involves uncertainty. Therefore, the amount of share-based compensation recognized has been effected by the significant assumptions and estimates used.

Provisions

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation, legal or constructive, as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made.

Warranty and recall campaigns provision

All cars are sold with warranty coverage. The warranty coverage generally applies to defects that may become apparent within a certain period from the purchase of the car.

The warranty provision is recognized at the time of the sale of the car, based on the present value of management’s estimate of the expected cost to fulfill the obligations over the contractual warranty period. Estimates are principally based on the Group’s historical claims or costs experience and the cost of parts and services to be incurred in the activities. The costs related to these provisions are recognized within cost of sales at the time when they are probable and reasonably estimable

Deferred Income, Advances and Revenue Recognition

Deferred income

Deferred income relates to amounts received by the Group under various agreements, which are reliant on the future performance of a service or other act of the Group. Deferred income is recognized as net revenues when the Group has fulfilled its obligations under the terms of the various agreements.

Range models (models belonging to the Ferrari product portfolio, excluding special series, limited edition and one-off (fuori serie) models) are sold with a scheduled maintenance program to ensure that the cars are maintained to the highest standards to meet the Group’s strict requirements for performance and safety. Amounts attributable to the maintenance program are not recognized as income immediately, but are deferred over the maintenance program term. The amount of the deferred income related to this program, is based on the estimated fair value of the service to be provided.

Advances

Advances relate to amounts received from or billed to customers in advance of having delivered the related cars or provided the related services.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when control over a product or service is transferred to a customer. Revenue is measured at the transaction price which is based on the amount of consideration that the Group expects to receive in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services to the customer and excludes any sales incentives as well as taxes collected from customers that are remitted to government authorities. The transaction price will include estimates of variable consideration to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue recognized will not occur. The Group enters into contracts that may include both products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations.

The Group generates revenue from the sale of cars, spare parts and engines as well as from sponsorship, commercial and brand activities. The Group accounts for a contract with a customer when there is a legally enforceable contract between the Group and the customer, the rights of the parties are identified, the contract has commercial substance, and collectability of the contract consideration is probable. Payments from customers are typically due within 30 and 40 days of invoicing.

The Group does not recognize any assets associated with the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer that are expected to be recovered. The majority of revenue is recognized at a point-in-time or over a period of one year or less, and the Group applies the practical expedient to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that would otherwise be recognized is one year or less.

Cars, spare parts and engines

The sales of cars, spare parts and engines have multiple performance obligations that include products, services, or a combination of products and services as contracts may include maintenance programs and extended warranties that are separately priced or not separately priced. Contracts may also include variable consideration for discounts such as sales incentives and performance based bonuses and product returns. The cost of incentives is estimated at the inception of a contract at the expected amount that will ultimately be paid and is recognized as a reduction to revenue at the time of the sale. Revenues recognized are limited to the amount of consideration the Group expects to receive. The Group allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations based on the stand alone selling prices (SSP) for each obligation. When the SSP does not exist, the Group estimates the SSP based on the adjusted market approach.

Revenues for the sale of cars, spare parts and engines are recognized at a point in time when control of the cars, spare parts or engines is transferred to the customer based on shipping terms, which generally corresponds to the date when the cars, spare parts and engines are released to the carrier responsible for transportation to dealers or Maserati. Revenues relating to the maintenance program or extended warranty are recognized over time as the maintenance program or extended warranty is provided. Revenues from the supply of engines and related services to other Formula 1 racing teams are recognized over time on a time and materials basis when the services are provided.

Management has exercised judgment in determining performance obligations, variable consideration, allocation of transaction price and the timing of revenue recognition.

Sponsorship, commercial and brand activities

Revenues from sponsorship agreements are generally recognized ratably over the contract term as the customer benefits from the service throughout the service period. For sponsorship agreements that contain variable consideration based on performance of the racing team, the related revenues are estimated and recognized over the relevant period to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur, which is typically when it is considered highly probable that the related conditions associated with the variable consideration will be achieved.

Revenues from commercial activities primarily relate to the revenues from participating in the Formula 1 World Championship. The revenues attributable to each racing team are governed by a specific agreement and depend upon, among other factors, the prior year ranking of each of the racing teams. Revenues of the commercial activities are recognized ratably over the contract term.

Revenues from brand licensing agreements where the customer has a right to access the Group’s brands or the contract includes minimum guaranteed payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Licensing revenues in excess of the minimum guaranteed payments are recognized when the related conditions are satisfied. Revenues from sales-based licensing agreements are recognized when the sales occur.

Management has exercised judgment in determining variable consideration.

Other revenues

Interest income generated by our financial service activities from the provision of client and dealer financing is reported within revenues using the effective interest rate method and not within net financial income/expenses.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales

Cost of sales comprises expenses incurred in the manufacturing and distribution of cars and parts, including the engines rented to other Formula 1 racing teams, of which, cost of materials, components and labor costs are the most significant portion. The remaining costs principally include depreciation, amortization, insurance and transportation costs. Cost of sales also includes warranty and product-related costs, which are estimated and recorded at the time of sale of the car.

Expenses which are directly attributable to the financial services companies, including the interest expenses related to their financing as a whole and provisions for risks and write-downs of assets, are also reported in cost of sales.

Taxes

Taxes

Income taxes include all taxes based upon the taxable profits of the Group. Current and deferred taxes are recognized as income or expense and are included in the consolidated income statement for the period, except tax arising from (i) a transaction or event which is recognized, in the same or a different period, either in other comprehensive income/(loss) or directly in equity, or (ii) a business combination.

Deferred taxes are accounted using the full liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities and their tax base, except to the extent that the deferred tax liabilities arise from the initial recognition of goodwill or the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized, unless the deferred tax assets arise from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the substantively enacted tax rates in the respective jurisdictions in which the Group operates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or liability is settled. Any remeasurements to deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of changes in substantially enacted tax rates are recognized in the income statement.

The recoverability of deferred tax assets is dependent on the Group’s ability to generate sufficient future taxable income in the period in which it is assumed that the deductible temporary differences reverse and tax losses carried forward can be utilized. In making this assessment, the Group considers future taxable income arising on the most recent budgets and plans, prepared by using the same criteria described for testing the impairment of assets and goodwill, moreover, it estimates the impact of the reversal of taxable temporary differences on earnings and it also considers the period over which these assets could be recovered. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reduced to the extent that it is not probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of part or all of the deferred tax assets to be utilized.

The Group recognizes deferred tax liabilities associated with the existence of a subsidiary’s undistributed profits, except when it is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that this temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. The Group recognizes deferred tax assets associated with the deductible temporary differences on investments in subsidiaries only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized.

Deferred tax assets relating to the carry-forward of unused tax losses and tax credits, as well as those arising from deductible temporary differences, are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future profits will be available against which they can be utilized.

Current income taxes and deferred taxes are offset when they relate to the same taxation authority and there is a legally enforceable right of offset.

Italian Regional Income Tax (“IRAP”) is recognized within income tax expense. IRAP is calculated on a measure of income defined by the Italian Civil Code as the difference between operating revenues and costs, before financial income and expense, and in particular before the cost of fixed-term employees, credit losses and any interest included in lease payments. IRAP is applied on the tax base at 3.9 percent for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

Other Taxes Not Based on Income

Other taxes not based on income, such as property taxes and capital taxes, are included in other expenses/(income), net.

Dividends

Dividends

Dividends payable by the Group are reported as a change in equity in the period in which they are approved by shareholders or the Board of Directors as applicable under local rules and regulations.

Rounding of Amounts

Rounding of amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest thousand Euro unless otherwise stated.

Cash Flow Hedges

The policy of the Group for managing foreign currency risk normally requires hedging of a portion of projected future cash flows from trading activities and orders acquired (or contracts in progress) in foreign currencies which will occur within the following 12 months. It is considered reasonable that the hedging effect arising from this and recorded in the cash flow hedge reserve will be recognized in the consolidated income statement, mainly during the following 12 months.

Derivatives relating to currency risk management are treated as cash flow hedges where the derivative qualifies for hedge accounting. The amount recorded in the cash flow hedge reserve will be recognized in the consolidated income statement according to the timing of the flows of the underlying transaction.

Segment Reporting

Segment reporting

The Group has determined that it has one operating and one reportable segment based on the information reviewed by its CODM in making decisions regarding the allocation of resources and to assess performance.

Use of Estimates

Use of estimates

The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS which require the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the amounts of income and expenses recognized. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on elements that are known when the financial statements are prepared, on historical experience and on any other factors that are considered to be relevant.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed periodically and continuously by the Group. If the items subject to estimates do not perform as assumed, then the actual results could differ from the estimates, which would require adjustment accordingly. The effects of any changes in estimate are recognized in the consolidated income statement in the period in which the adjustment is made, or prospectively in future periods.

Development Costs

Development costs

Development costs are capitalized if the conditions under IAS 38 - Intangible Assets have been met. The starting point for capitalization is based upon the technological and commercial feasibility of the project, which is usually when a product development project has reached a defined milestone according to the Group’s established product development model. Feasibility is based on management’s judgment which is formed on the basis of estimated future cash flows. Capitalization ceases and amortization of capitalized development costs begins on start of production of the relevant project.

The amortization of development costs requires management to estimate the lifecycle of the related model. Any changes in such assumptions would impact the amortization charge recorded and the carrying amount of capitalized development costs. The periodic amortization charge is derived after determining the expected lifecycle of the related model and, if applicable any expected residual value at the end of its life. Increasing an asset’s expected lifecycle or its residual value would result in a reduced amortization charge in the consolidated income statement.

The useful lives and residual values of the Group’s models are determined by management at the time of capitalization and reviewed annually for appropriateness and recoverability. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events which may impact their life such as changes in technology. Historically changes in useful lives and residual values have not resulted in material changes to the Group’s amortization charge or estimated recoverability of the related assets.

Product Warranty Liabilities

Product warranties liabilities

The Group establishes reserves for product warranties at the time the sale is recognized. The Group issues various types of product warranties under which the performance of products delivered is generally guaranteed for a certain period or term, which is generally defined by the legislation in the country where the car is sold. The reserve for product warranties includes the expected costs of warranty obligations imposed by law or contract, as well as the expected costs for policy coverage. The estimated future costs of these actions are principally based on assumptions regarding the lifetime warranty costs of each car line and each model year of that car line, as well as historical claims experience for the Group’s cars. In addition, the number and magnitude of additional service actions expected to be approved, and policies related to additional service actions, are taken into consideration. Due to the uncertainty and potential volatility of these estimated factors, changes in the assumptions used could materially affect the results of operations.

The Group periodically initiates voluntary service actions to address various client satisfaction, safety and emissions issues related to cars sold. Included in the reserve is the estimated cost of these services and recall actions. The estimated future costs of these actions are based primarily on historical claims experience for the Group’s cars and the cost of parts and services to be incurred in the specified activities, and are recognized at the time when they are probable and reasonably estimable. Estimates of the future costs of these actions are inevitably imprecise due to several uncertainties, including the number of cars affected by a service or recall action. It is reasonably possible that the ultimate cost of these service and recall actions may require the Group to make expenditures in excess of (or less than) established reserves over an extended period of time. The estimate of warranty and additional service obligations is periodically reviewed during the year.

In addition, the Group makes provisions for estimated product liability costs arising from property damage and personal injuries including wrongful death, and potential exemplary or punitive damages alleged to be the result of product defects. By nature, these costs can be infrequent, difficult to predict, and have the potential to vary significantly in amount. Costs associated with these provisions are recorded in the consolidated income statement and any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the period in which the adjustment is determined.

Other Contingent Liabilities

Other contingent liabilities

The Group makes provisions in connection with pending or threatened disputes or legal proceedings when it is considered probable that there will be an outflow of funds and when the amount can be reasonably estimated. If an outflow of funds becomes possible but the amount cannot be estimated, the matter is disclosed in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Group is the subject of legal and tax proceedings covering a wide range of matters in various jurisdictions. Due to the uncertainty inherent in such matters, it is difficult to predict the outflow of funds that could result from such disputes with any certainty. Moreover, the cases and claims against the Group often derive from complex legal issues which are subject to a differing degree of uncertainty, including the facts and circumstances of each particular case and the manner in which applicable law is likely to be interpreted and applied to such fact and circumstances, and the jurisdiction and the different laws involved. The Group monitors the status of pending legal proceedings and consults with experts on legal and tax matters on a regular basis. It is therefore possible that the provisions for the Group’s legal proceedings and litigation may vary as the result of future developments in pending matters.

Litigation

Litigation

Various legal proceedings, claims and governmental investigations are pending against the Group on a wide range of topics, including car safety, emissions and fuel economy, early warning reporting, dealer, supplier and other contractual relationships, intellectual property rights and product warranties matters. Some of these proceedings allege defects in specific component parts or systems (including airbags, seatbelts, brakes, transmissions, engines and fuel systems) in various car models or allege general design defects relating to car handling and stability, sudden unintended movement or crashworthiness. These proceedings seek recovery for damage to property, personal injuries or wrongful death and in some cases could include a claim for exemplary or punitive damages. Adverse decisions in one or more of these proceedings could require the Group to pay substantial damages, or undertake service actions, recall campaigns or other costly actions.

Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of individual matters is not predictable with assurance. An accrual is established in connection with pending or threatened litigation if a loss is probable and a reliable estimate can be made. Since these accruals represent estimates, it is reasonably possible that the resolution of some of these matters could require the Group to make payments in excess of the amounts accrued. It is also reasonably possible that the resolution of some of the matters for which accruals could not be made may require the Group to make payments in an amount or range of amounts that could not be reasonably estimated.

The term “reasonably possible” is used herein to mean that the chance of a future transaction or event occurring is more than remote but less than probable. Although the final resolution of any such matters could have a material effect on the Group’s operating results for the particular reporting period in which an adjustment of the estimated reserve is recorded, it is believed that any resulting adjustment would not materially affect the consolidated financial position of the Group.
