INTRODUCTION

        The Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 (the “Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”) included in this Interim Report have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and in accordance with IFRS as endorsed by the European Union, and in particular, in compliance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting. The accounting principles applied are consistent with those used for the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements at and for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Annual Consolidated Financial Statements”), except as otherwise stated in “New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2020” in the notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

COVID-19 Pandemic Update

The global spread of COVID-19 (“COVID-19”), a virus causing potentially deadly respiratory tract infections, which was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020, has led to governments around the world mandating increasingly restrictive measures to contain the pandemic, including social distancing, quarantine, “shelter in place” or similar orders, travel restrictions and suspension of non-essential business activities. The main impacts on Ferrari during the first quarter of 2020 include the following:

Deliveries were suspended due to restrictions on dealer activities or the inability of customers to collect their cars, primarily in Europe, near the end of March 2020.
With the safety and well-being of Ferrari employees in mind, production was suspended from March 14 and gradually restarted from May 4, with full production expected by May 8. Ferrari decided to continue paying all employees and not accede to any of the government’s aid programs for the whole suspension period. Prior to suspending production, Ferrari started to experience limited supply chain constraints.
The start of the 2020 Formula 1 World Championship has been postponed and there is uncertainty regarding the number and format of Grand Prix races that will take place in 2020. This impacted our results in the first quarter as we have accrued sponsorship and commercial revenues based on the estimated number of races that will take place for the 2020 season, which is expected to be significantly less than the 2019 season.
Brand activities were also adversely impacted as a result of the closure of Ferrari stores and museums.
There were no significant effects on the valuation of assets or liabilities and no increases in allowances for credit losses as of March 31, 2020. Moreover, no material impairment indicators were identified and there were no changes in accounting judgments or other significant accounting impacts relating to COVID-19.
No significant changes occurred in controls that materially affect internal control over financial reporting.
Although production and certain other activities were suspended (i.e. Formula 1, stores, museums), the Group has been able to continue many other key business activities and functions through remote working arrangements.

The future impacts of COVID-19 on Ferrari’s results of operations and financial condition will depend on ongoing developments in relation to the pandemic, including the success of containment measures and other actions taken by governments around the world, as well as the overall condition and outlook of the global economy. Significant uncertainty remains, especially in relation to Ferrari’s Formula 1 and brand activities, and the situation is evolving continuously. As further described under “We are subject to risks related to the future evolution of and response to the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic that may materially and adversely affect our business” Ferrari’s performance will continue to be negatively affected, particularly in the second quarter of 2020 and possibly beyond. For the entire month of April our production remained suspended. The closure and reopening of Ferrari dealerships have varied, as lockdowns and other restrictions, and the gradual easing of those measures, have been implemented to varying degrees from country to country. To date, less than 50% of Ferrari dealerships are open for business or planning to be open in the coming days. Those dealers that are closed are expected to begin opening gradually as national, regional or state lockdowns and containment policies are lifted. The waiting list for cars continues to extend beyond 12 months on average and the Group is focused on maintaining a robust order book going forward. The Group expects that a significantly reduced number of Formula 1 races will be held in 2020 and that brand activities will recover slowly towards pre-pandemic levels. Ferrari will seek to partially recover the effects of the COVID-19-related suspension of business activities in the second half of 2020. To mitigate potential liquidity or refinancing risks in the foreseeable future, the Group is focused on increasing its amount of available liquidity, including through new committed credit lines (additional committed credit lines for an aggregate of €350 million were secured in April 2020, doubling the total committed credit lines available and undrawn to €700 million as compared to March 31, 2020). Additionally, the Group elected to temporarily suspend its share repurchase program effective from March 30. Furthermore, we are taking actions to contain SG&A, R&D and capital expenditure in the remainder of 2020, while ensuring that those projects that are considered important for the continuing success of Ferrari and its future development have been maintained. Management is continuously monitoring the evolution of COVID-19 as information becomes available as well as the related effects on the financial position and results of operations of the Group.

To protect the health and well-being of its workforce, and its customers, as Ferrari returns to business operations, and for the foreseeable future, the Company will implement its “Back on Track” program, which was developed in partnership with several virologists and other medical experts to ensure the highest level of safety for Ferrari employees, their families, Ferrari customers and suppliers and the greater community at large. The program includes the following measures:

full implementation of the Italian government’s ‘Protocol for the regulation of measures to combat and contain the spread of the COVID-19 virus in the workplace’, with additional measures to strengthen and customize the protocol with the support of specialists who have expert knowledge of Ferrari’s work environment;

7


voluntary screening of Ferrari employees with blood tests to check their state of health in relation to the virus (service also available to the employees’ household as well as staff of suppliers present on the Company’s premises);
offering to all Ferrari workers the opportunity to use a special App to receive medical support in monitoring the symptoms of the virus;
providing health and psychological assistance service to staff and special support to any employee who tests positive for COVID-19 (including free insurance coverage, accommodation for self-isolation, medical and nursing services and supply of required medical equipment such as medicines, oximeters and, in case of emergency, oxygen);
the launch of an “Installation Lap” phase, which includes several days of safety training (primarily for employees involved in the resumption of production from May 4) and the provision of personal protective equipment for employees, as well as the implementation of checks at workstation entrances and rules for sharing common areas.

In response to the healthcare crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and to support the communities in which Ferrari operates, Ferrari has commenced activities to produce respirator valves and fittings for protective masks, and has also agreed to fund various initiatives in the region to help those in need during the COVID-19 emergency, with the first activities concentrating on Ferrari's local communities in the province of Modena. Aid to the different towns were coordinated directly with the local authorities and include the following, among others:

the purchase and distribution of ventilators, respiratory equipment, medically certified masks and other medical supplies;
the purchase of COVID-19 test kits and equipment for the Policlinico di Modena and the hospitals of Baggiovara and Sassuolo;
the donation of emergency medical service vehicles for the local health service;
the purchase of computer equipment for schools, including notebooks, tablets and portable modems. All of the IT equipment will remain with the schools;
the purchase and distribution of food in Maranello;
Ferrari, together with other companies, contributed to the sourcing and purchasing of 210 ventilators, alongside other medical equipment from various overseas suppliers, providing for their immediate air transport to Italy.

Further initiatives will be confirmed in the region over the coming weeks. The overall fund is almost €2 million and was generated thanks to the Chairman, the CEO and Board of Directors pledging their full compensation from April to the end of the year, with the Senior Management Team donating 25% of their salaries for the same period.

Ferrari has also launched a collaborative fundraising initiative together with its Cavalcade clients to support the medical staff and health system of Ferrari's surrounding communities, with Ferrari matching every donation made.

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 certain income and costs which are significant in nature, expected to occur infrequently, and that management considers not reflective of ongoing operational activities. EBITDA is presented by management to aid investors in their analysis of the performance of the Group and to assist investors in the comparison of the Group’s performance with that of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is presented to demonstrate how the underlying business has performed prior to the impact of the adjustments, which may obscure the underlying performance and impair comparability of results between periods.
        The following table sets forth the calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, and provides a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to net profit. There were no adjustments impacting Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented.

Adjusted EBIT
        Adjusted EBIT represents EBIT as adjusted for certain income and costs which are significant in nature, expected to occur infrequently, and that management considers not reflective of ongoing operational activities. We provide such information in order to present how the underlying business has performed prior to the impact of such items, which may obscure the underlying performance and impair comparability of results between the periods.

Adjusted Net Profit
        Adjusted Net Profit represents net profit as adjusted for certain income and costs (net of tax effect) which are significant in nature, expected to occur infrequently, and that management considers not reflective of ongoing operational activities. We provide such information in order to present how the underlying business has performed prior to the impact of such items, which may obscure the underlying performance and impair comparability of results between the periods.

Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings per Common Share

        Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings per Common Share represents earnings per share, as adjusted for certain income and costs (net of tax effect) which are significant in nature, expected to occur infrequently, and that management considers not reflective of ongoing operational activities. We provide such information in order to present how the underlying business has performed prior to the impact of such items, which may obscure the 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 three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. There were no adjustments impacting Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings per Common Share for the periods presented.

Net Debt and Net Industrial Debt 

        Due to different sources of cash flows used for the repayment of debt between industrial activities and financial services activities, and the different business structure and leverage implications, Net Industrial Debt, together with Net Debt, are the primary measures used by us to analyze our capital structure and financial leverage. We believe the presentation of Net Industrial Debt aids management and investors in their analysis of the Group’s financial position and financial performance and to compare the Group's financial position and financial performance with that of other companies. Net Industrial Debt is defined as total debt less total cash and cash equivalents (Net Debt), further adjusted to exclude the debt and cash and cash equivalents related to our financial services activities (Net Debt of Financial Services Activities).

Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities
        
        Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities are two of our primary key performance indicators to measure the Group’s performance. These measures are presented by management to aid investors in their analysis of the Group’s financial performance and to compare the Group’s financial performance with that of other companies. Free Cash Flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities less investments in property, plant and equipment (excluding right-of-use assets recognized during the period in accordance with IFRS 16 - Leases) and intangible assets. Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities is defined as Free Cash Flow adjusted to exclude the operating cash flow from our financial services activities (Free Cash Flow from Financial Services Activities). Prior to the first quarter of 2020, we defined Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities without excluding from investments in property, plant and equipment the right-of-use assets recognized during the period in accordance with IFRS 16 - Leases. Applying the current definition of Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities to the three months ended March 31, 2019 would result in an immaterial difference compared to the figures presented below.

        The following table sets forth our Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Constant Currency Information

        The “Results of Operations” discussion below includes information about our net revenues on a constant currency basis, which eliminates the effects of foreign currency translation from our subsidiaries with functional currencies other than Euro, as well as the effects of foreign currency transaction impact and foreign currency hedging. We use this information to assess how the underlying revenues changed independent of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and hedging. We calculate constant currency by (i) applying the prior-period average foreign currency exchange rates to translate current period revenues of foreign subsidiaries expressed in local functional currency other than Euro, (ii) applying the prior-period average foreign currency exchange rates to current period revenues originated in a currency other than the functional currency of the applicable entity, and (iii) eliminating the variances of any foreign currency hedging (see Note 5 “Other Information” to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in this Interim Report, for information on the foreign currency exchange rates applied). Although we do not believe that these measures are a substitute for GAAP measures, we do believe that revenues excluding the impact of currency fluctuations and the impacts of hedging provide additional useful information to investors regarding the operating performance on a local currency basis.

(1)Includes net revenues generated from shipments of our cars, including any personalization net revenues generated on cars, as well as sales of spare parts.
(2)Includes net revenues generated from the sale of engines to Maserati for use in their cars, and the revenues generated from the rental of engines to other Formula 1 racing teams.
(3)Includes net revenues earned by our Formula 1 racing team through sponsorship agreements and our share of the Formula 1 World Championship commercial revenues, as well as net revenues generated through the Ferrari brand, including merchandising, licensing and royalty income.
(4)Primarily relates to financial services activities and management of the Mugello racetrack.

        Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were €932 million, a decrease of €8 million, or 0.8 percent (a decrease of 2.7 percent on a constant currency basis), from €940 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
        
The change in net revenues was attributable to the combination of (i) a €53 million increase in cars and spare parts, (ii) a €25 million decrease in engines, (iii) a €39 million decrease in sponsorship, commercial and brand, and (iv) a €3 million increase in other net revenues.


12


Cars and spare parts
        Net revenues generated from cars and spare parts were €788 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, an increase of €53 million, or 7.3 percent, from €735 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
        
        The €53 million increase in net revenues was composed of: (i) a €90 million increase in EMEA, (ii) a €41 million increase in Americas and (iii) a €31 million increase in Rest of APAC, partially offset by (iv) a €109 million decrease in Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.
        
The increase in net revenues was supported by a 4.9 percent increase in shipments, composed of: (i) an increase in EMEA of 25.4 percent, (ii) an increase in Rest of APAC of 23.2 percent, and (iii) an increase in Americas of 4.2 percent, partially offset by (iv) a decrease in Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan of 88.7 percent as a result of the decision to deliberately accelerate client deliveries in the first half of 2019 in advance of new emissions regulations.

The increase in net revenues reflected the overall positive volume impact and the contribution from the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2, as well as from our personalization programs and the positive foreign currency impact, partially offset by lower shipments of the FXX-K EVO. In particular, the 4.9 percent increase in total shipments (corresponding to 128 cars) comprised a 5.7 percent increase in V8 models and a 2.4 percent increase in V12 models. The increase in shipments was mainly driven by the 488 Pista and 488 Pista Spider, as well as the ramp up of the F8 Tributo Spider, partially offset by the 488 GTB and 488 Spider, which concluded their lifecycle in 2019. Shipments in the first quarter of 2020 were impacted by a few days of suspended deliveries due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Engines
        Net revenues generated from engines were €33 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of €25 million, or 44.2 percent, from €58 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The €25 million decrease was mainly attributable to lower shipments of engines to Maserati.

Sponsorship, commercial and brand

        Net revenues generated from sponsorship, commercial agreements and brand management activities were €89 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of €39 million, or 30.0 percent, from €128 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to the impacts of COVID-19, including the temporary suspension of the Formula 1 season resulting in a reduced number of Formula 1 races and corresponding lower revenue accrual in the first quarter, as well as reduced in-store traffic and museum visitors.

        Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was €451 million, a decrease of €10 million, or 2.3 percent, from €461 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. As a percentage of net revenues, cost of sales was 48.4 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 49.1 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
        The decrease in cost of sales was primarily attributable to lower engine volumes produced for Maserati, partially offset by an increase in car volumes and higher depreciation.

        Selling, general and administrative costs for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were €79 million, an increase of €10 million, or 15.0 percent, from €69 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. As a percentage of net revenues, selling, general and administrative costs were 8.5 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 7.3 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

        The increase in selling, general and administrative costs was primarily attributable to the increase in staffing throughout 2019 and marketing investments in the early part of the first quarter of 2020.

As a percentage of net revenues, research and development costs were 19.4 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 19.7 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

        The decrease of €4 million in research and development costs during the period was primarily attributable to lower research and development costs expensed during the period, including the effects of technology incentives recognized in the first quarter of 2020, partially offset by an increase in amortization of capitalized development costs.

The decrease in EBIT was primarily attributable to the combined effects of (i) positive volume impact of €12 million, (ii) positive product mix and price impact of €37 million, (iii) a decrease in research and development costs of €4 million, (iv) an increase in selling, general and administrative costs of €10 million, (v) negative contribution of €50 million due to lower engine sales to Maserati, the impacts of COVID-19 on the Formula 1 racing calendar and lower traffic for brand related activities, as well as a favorable reassessment of a legal dispute in the first quarter of 2019, (vi) an increase in industrial costs of €22 million including higher depreciation, and (vii) positive foreign currency exchange impact of €17 million (including foreign currency hedging instruments) primarily driven by the strengthening of the U.S. Dollar compared to the Euro. Industrial costs in the first quarter of 2020 include the full cost of employees’ paid days of absence during the COVID-19 production suspension.

The positive volume impact was attributable to an increase in shipments, driven by the 488 Pista and 488 Pista Spider, as well as the ramp up of the F8 Tributo, partially offset by the 488 GTB and the 488 Spider, which concluded their lifecycle in 2019. The positive product mix and price impact was primarily attributable to the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2, as well as our personalization programs, partially offset by lower shipments of the FXX K EVO.

        Net financial expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were €13 million compared to €7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

        The increase in net financial expenses was primarily attributable to a decrease in the fair value of investments held by the Group of €3 million in the first quarter of 2020 and an increase in foreign exchange losses, including the net costs of hedging.

Income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 benefited from the application of the Patent Box tax regime. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily attributable to a decrease in profit before taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity Overview

        We require liquidity in order to fund our 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 require cash for capital investments to support continuous product range renewal and expansion and, more recently, for research and development to transition our product portfolio to hybrid and electric technology. We also make investments for initiatives to enhance manufacturing efficiency, improve capacity, ensure environmental compliance and carry out maintenance activities. We fund our capital expenditure primarily with cash generated from our operating activities.

        We centrally manage our operating cash management, liquidity and cash flow requirements with the objective of ensuring efficient and effective management of our funds. We believe that our cash generation together with our available liquidity, including committed credit lines granted from primary financial institutions, will be sufficient to meet our obligations and fund our business and capital expenditures.

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

Cyclical Nature of Our Cash Flows

        Our working capital is subject to month to month fluctuations due to, among other things, production and sales volumes, our financial services activities, the timing of capital expenditure and tax payments. 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. The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our working capital were limited in the first quarter of 2020.

        We generally receive payment for cars between 30 and 40 days after the car is shipped (or earlier when financing schemes are available to our dealers or we sell invoices to a factor) while we generally 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 the first quarter of 2019, our Icona cars). We maintain sufficient inventory of raw materials and components to ensure continuity of our production lines, however delivery of most raw materials and components takes place monthly or more frequently in order to minimize inventories. The manufacture of one of our cars typically takes between 30 and 45 days, depending on the level of automation of the relevant production line, and the car is generally shipped to our dealers three to six days following the completion of production, although we may warehouse cars in local markets for longer periods of time to ensure prompt deliveries in certain regions. As a result of the above, including the advances received from customers in certain models, we tend to receive payment for cars shipped before we are required to make payment for the raw material and components used in manufacturing the cars. Given the exceptional circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic, we granted certain temporary, short-term, payment extensions to our dealer network during the first quarter of 2020; however our standard payment terms remain unchanged.

        Our investments for capital expenditure and research and development are, among other factors, influenced by the timing and number of new models launches. Our development costs, as well as our other investments in capital expenditure, generally peak in periods when we develop a significant number of new models to renew or expand our product range. Our research and development costs are also influenced by the timing of research costs for our Formula 1 activities, for which expenditure is generally higher in the first and last quarters of the year. We significantly increased our capital expenditure in 2019 and we expect our capital expenditure will continue to increase in 2020 to support the growth of our product range and to expand our production facilities in Maranello.

        The payment of income taxes also affects our working capital. We have typically paid our income taxes in two advances in the second and fourth quarters of the year, however, 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 and therefore tax payments were significantly reduced in 2019 and we expect this to continue in 2020 as the Group is currently applying the Patent Box tax regime for the period from 2020 to 2024, in line with currently applicable tax regulations in Italy. See Note 12 “Income Tax Expense” to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details related to the Patent Box tax regime in Italy.

Cash Flows

        The following table summarizes the cash flows from/(used in) operating, investing and financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. For additional details of our cash flows, see our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Interim Report.

We utilized cash of €18 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to cash generation of €268 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The change in cash flows between the two periods was primarily driven by: (i) the advances collected in the first quarter of 2019 in relation to the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2, ahead of shipments, including for cars actually delivered in the first quarter of 2020; (ii) higher share repurchases in 2020, (iii) an increase in capital expenditures driven by the expansion of our activities, and (iv) lower net proceeds from debt of our financial services activities compared to the corresponding period in 2019.

        Operating Activities - Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 

        Our cash flows from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were €263 million, primarily the result of:

(i)profit before taxes of €207 million adjusted for €97 million for depreciation and amortization expense, €13 million related to net finance costs and net other non-cash expenses of €2 million (including provisions accrued and result from investments); and

(ii)€8 million related to cash generated from receivables from financing activities.

These cash inflows were partially offset by:

(i)€37 million related to cash absorbed from the net change in inventories, trade receivables and trade payables, driven by cash absorbed by trade payables of €46 million, in line with seasonality, and cash absorbed by trade receivables of €2 million, partially offset by cash generated from inventories of €11 million;

(ii)€13 million of cash absorbed related to the net change in other operating assets and liabilities, driven by the reversal of advances of the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2;

(iii)€12 million of net finance costs paid; and

(iv)€2 million of income taxes paid.

(i)profit before taxes of €225 million adjusted for €79 million for depreciation and amortization expense, €7 million related to net finance costs and other non-cash expenses of €10 million, partially offset by net provision releases of €5 million and result from investments of €1 million; and

(ii)€131 million of cash related to other net change in other operating assets and liabilities, primarily attributable to advances received for the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2.

These cash inflows were partially offset by:

(i)€31 million related to cash absorbed from the net change in inventories, trade receivables and trade payables, driven by (i) cash absorbed by trade receivables of €11 million, (ii) cash absorbed by inventories of €11 million and (iii) cash absorbed by trade payables of €9 million;

(ii)€19 million related to cash absorbed from receivables from financing activities, primarily attributable to an increase in the financial receivables portfolio;

(iii)€8 million of net finance costs paid; and

(iv)€4 million of income taxes paid.

        Investing Activities - Three Months Ended March 31, 2020
        For the three months ended March 31, 2020 our net cash used in investing activities was €174 million, primarily the result of:

(i)capital expenditures of €106 million for additions to property, plant and equipment and €68 million for additions to intangible assets, mainly related to externally acquired and internally generated development costs. For a detailed analysis of additions to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets see “Capital Expenditures.”


        Investing Activities - Three Months Ended March 31, 2019

        For the three months ended March 31, 2019 our net cash used in investing activities was €134 million, primarily the result of

(i)€68 million for additions to intangible assets, mainly related to externally acquired and internally generated development costs, and additions of €67 million to property, plant and equipment. These cash outflows were partially offset by proceeds from the disposal of property plant and equipment of €1 million. For a detailed analysis of additions to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets see “Capital Expenditures.”


        Financing Activities - Three Months Ended March 31, 2020

        For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash used in financing activities was €109 million, primarily the result of:

(i)€130 million paid to repurchase common shares under the Company’s share repurchase program;

(ii)€4 million in repayments of lease liabilities, and

(iii)€2 million related to the net change in other debt.



19


These cash outflows were partially offset by:

(i)€27 million of proceeds net of repayments related to our revolving securitization programs in the U.S.


        Financing Activities - Three Months Ended March 31, 2019

        For the three months ended March 31, 2019 net cash generated from financing activities was €14 million, primarily the result of:

(i)€43 million of proceeds net of repayments related to our revolving securitization programs in the U.S.; and

(ii)€23 million related to the net change in other debt.

These cash inflows were partially offset by:

(i)€51 million paid to repurchase common shares under the Company’s share repurchase program; and

(ii)€1 million related to the net change in lease liabilities.

Capital Expenditures

        Capital expenditures are defined as additions to property, plant and equipment (including right-of-use assets recognized in accordance with IFRS 16 - Leases) and intangible assets. Capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were €189 million and €135 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

        The following table sets forth a breakdown of capital expenditures by category for each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:

Total capital expenditures189  135  


Intangible assets 

        Our total capital expenditures in intangible assets were €68 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

The most significant investments relate 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 and personnel costs relating to engineering, design and development activities 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 luxury performance sports car market.
        
        The increase in externally acquired and internally generated development costs reflects the broadening of our product range and our ongoing investments in hybrid technology, which are necessary to provide continuing performance upgrades to our sports car customers and to help us capture the preferences of the urban, affluent purchasers of GT cars whom we are increasingly targeting.

        For the three months ended March 31, 2020 we invested €66 million in externally acquired and internally generated development costs, of which €46 million related to the development of models to be launched in future years and €20 million primarily related to the development of our current product portfolio and components.

        For the three months ended March 31, 2019 we invested €65 million in externally acquired and internally generated development costs, of which €53 million related to the development of models to be launched in future years and €12 million primarily related to the development of our current product portfolio and components.



21


Property, plant and equipment

        Our total capital expenditures in property, plant and equipment were €121 million and €67 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

        Our most significant investments generally relate to plant, machinery and equipment, which amounted to €18 million and €10 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, as well as advances and assets under construction, which amounted to €85 million and €53 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our main investments primarily related to industrial tools needed for the production of cars and investments in car production lines (including those for models to be launched in future years), as well as investments related to our personalization programs and engine assembly lines. The increase in advances and assets under construction reflects our focus on the hybridization and broadening of our product range and supporting future model launches, as well as our acquisition of tracts of land adjacent to our facilities in Maranello as part of our expansion plans.

        At March 31, 2020, the Group had contractual commitments for the purchase of property, plant and equipment amounting to €98 million.

Net Debt and Net Industrial Debt

        Due to different sources of cash flows used for the repayment of debt between industrial activities and financial services activities, and the different business structure and leverage implications, Net Industrial Debt, together with Net Debt, are the primary measures used by us to analyze our capital structure and financial leverage. We believe the presentation of Net Industrial Debt aids management and investors in their analysis of the Group’s financial position and financial performance and to compare the Group's financial position and financial performance with that of other companies. Net Industrial Debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents (Net Debt), further adjusted to exclude the debt and cash and cash equivalents related to our financial services activities (Net Debt of Financial Services Activities).
         
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Net Debt and Net Industrial Debt at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Cash and cash equivalents

        Cash and cash equivalents amounted to €880 million at March 31, 2020 compared to €898 million at December 31, 2019.

        Approximately 75 percent of our cash and cash equivalents were denominated in Euro at March 31, 2020 (approximately 77 percent at December 31, 2019). Our cash and cash equivalents denominated in currencies other than the Euro are available mostly to Ferrari S.p.A. and certain subsidiaries which operate in areas other than Europe. Cash held in such countries may be subject to transfer restrictions depending on the jurisdictions in which these subsidiaries operate. In particular, cash held in China (including in foreign currencies), which amounted to €114 million at March 31, 2020 (€115 million at December 31, 2019), is subject to certain repatriation restrictions and may only be repatriated as dividends or capital distributions. We do not currently believe that such transfer restrictions have an adverse impact on our ability to meet our liquidity requirements.
        
        The following table sets forth an analysis of the currencies in which our cash and cash equivalents were denominated at the dates presented.

        Cash collected from the settlement of receivables or credit lines pledged as collateral under securitization programs is subject to certain restrictions regarding its use and is primarily applied to repay principal and interest of the related funding. Such cash amounted to €51 million at March 31, 2020 (€28 million at December 31, 2019).

        Total available liquidity
        
        Total available liquidity (defined as cash and cash equivalents plus undrawn committed credit lines) at March 31, 2020 was €1,230 million (€1,248 million at December 31, 2019).

        The following table summarizes our total available liquidity:

        The undrawn committed credit lines at March 31, 2020 relates to a revolving credit facility. For further details, see Note 23 “Debt” in the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document.

In April 2020, additional committed credit lines of €350 million were secured, with tenors ranging from 18 to 24 months, therefore doubling our total committed credit lines available and undrawn to €700 million.

Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities
        
        Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities are two of our primary key performance indicators to measure the Group’s performance. These measures are presented by management to aid investors in their analysis of the Group’s financial performance and to compare the Group’s financial performance with that of other companies. Free Cash Flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities less investments in property, plant and equipment (excluding right-of-use assets recognized during the period in accordance with IFRS 16 - Leases) and intangible assets. Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities is defined as Free Cash Flow adjusted to exclude the operating cash flow from our financial services activities (Free Cash Flow from Financial Services Activities). Prior to the first quarter of 2020, we defined Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities without excluding from investments in property, plant and equipment the right-of-use assets recognized during the period in accordance with IFRS 16 - Leases. Applying the current definition of Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities to the three months ended March 31, 2019 would result in an immaterial difference compared to the figures presented below.

        The following table sets forth our Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

        Free Cash Flow for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was €89 million, a decrease of €160 million compared to €249 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. For an explanation of the drivers in Free Cash Flow see “Cash Flows” above.

        Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was €73 million, a decrease of €209 million compared to €282 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in Free Cash Flow from Industrial Activities was primarily attributable to (i) changes in working capital, driven by the advances collected in the first quarter of 2019 in relation to the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2, ahead of shipments, including for cars actually delivered in the first quarter of 2020, and (ii) higher capital expenditures in 2020 compared to the corresponding period in 2019.

Risk Factors
We face a variety of risks and uncertainties in our business. For a description of such risks and uncertainties please see “Risk Factors” in the Group’s Annual Report and Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the AFM and the SEC on February 18, 2020, as well as the risk factor described below. All such risks factors should be read in conjunction with this Interim Report. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe to be immaterial, may also become important factors that affect us.
We are subject to risks related to the future evolution of and response to the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic that may materially and adversely affect our business
The global spread of COVID-19, a virus causing potentially deadly respiratory tract infections, which was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020, has led to governments around the world mandating increasingly restrictive measures to contain the pandemic, including social distancing, quarantine, “shelter in place” or similar orders, travel restrictions and suspension of non-essential business activities. Those measures, though temporary in nature, may continue for an extended period of time and intensify depending on developments in the COVID-19 pandemic, including potential subsequent waves of the outbreak. Beginning in mid-March 2020, we suspended production at our plants in Maranello and Modena, while implementing remote working arrangements for all non-manufacturing related activities. In line with the Italian government’s plan to ease restrictions on business activities, implemented as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Ferrari will gradually restart production at its Maranello and Modena plants on May 4, with full production expected by May 8. All business activities that are currently being performed through remote working arrangements will continue to operate in this manner.

In connection with the COVID-19 outbreak and related government measures, we are experiencing delays in shipments of cars due to restrictions on dealers’ activities or the inability of customers to take delivery of cars, and it is not currently known when dealers will reopen in the Group’s end markets, and what operating restrictions they will need to adopt. While production activities at our plants restarted in early May 2020, and although we have implemented several measures (including our “Back on Track” program) in an attempt to manage and mitigate the effects of the virus, we are unable to predict the ultimate impacts from COVID-19. For example, we may yet experience a new shutdown or slowdown of all or part of our manufacturing facilities, including in the event our employees are diagnosed with COVID-19 or our supply chains are disrupted, or in the event a second wave of disease leads to new government actions. Management time and resources may need to be spent on COVID-19-related matters, distracting from the implementation of the Group’s strategy. In addition, the prophylactic measures we will be required to adopt at our facilities may be costly and may affect production levels. Our suppliers, customers, dealers, franchisees and other contractual counterparties may be restricted or prevented from conducting business activities for indefinite or intermittent periods of time, including as a result of safety concerns, shutdowns, slowdowns, illness of such parties’ workforce and other actions and restrictions requested or mandated by governmental authorities. Any of the foregoing could limit customer demand or our capacity to meet customer demand and have a material adverse effect on our business, results from operations and financial condition.

Our brand activities across different jurisdictions have also been, and may continue to be, adversely impacted, due to the temporary closure of the Ferrari stores, museums and theme parks to comply with government orders, with an adverse impact on the Group’s revenues originating from such activities. The Formula 1 2020 World Championship is currently suspended due to the COVID-19 outbreak, and at present it is uncertain when races will resume. This has, and will continue to have an adverse effect on our sponsorship and commercial revenues from Formula 1 activities, as well as revenues from the rental of engines to other Formula 1 teams.
If people and goods are not allowed to circulate, or if circulation is significantly limited, our ability to achieve our business targets may be adversely affected. Additionally, if we are not able to reduce costs by the same proportion as any decreases in revenues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, our margins will be negatively impacted.
The future impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of operations and financial condition will depend on ongoing developments in the pandemic, including the success of containment measures and other actions taken by governments around the world, as well as the overall condition and outlook of the global economy. While we are continuing to monitor and assess the evolution of the pandemic and its effects on both the macroeconomic scenario and the Group’s financial position and results of operations, significant uncertainty remains around the length and extent of the restrictions in the markets in which we operate. However, the effects on our business, results of operations, financial performance and cash flows may be material and adverse.

The COVID-19 pandemic may also exacerbate other risks disclosed in the “Risk Factors” section in the Group’s Annual Report and Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the AFM and the SEC on February 18, 2020, including, but not limited to, our competitiveness, demand for our products, shifting consumer preferences, exchange rate fluctuations, customers’ and dealers’ access to affordable financing, and credit market conditions affecting the availability of capital and financial resources.

Outlook

The Company revised its guidance for the full year 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. As the progression of the pandemic and the constraints it entails cannot be easily anticipated, the revised guidance range is based on information currently available to management and has been necessarily calculated through the incorporation of a number of assumptions in respect of developments that are largely unknown and unpredictable. Several key assumptions and actions taken, are summarized below:

The guidance range reflects different and partial recovery rates of production volumes lost during the COVID-19-related suspension, and alternative scenarios in respect of the evolution of the order book in 2020;
A significant reduction in Formula 1 revenues reflecting the lower number of races estimated to take place during the 2020 season with many races expected to be held without fans present;
Brand activities project a substantial reduction in turnover to reflect a slow recovery to pre-pandemic levels;
SG&A and R&D spending reflect containment initiatives taken and prioritization based on medium-term impact analysis;
Capital expenditures projected for 2020 reduced to approximately €750 million;
Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to primarily affect second quarter results;
Due to significant uncertainties relating to a potential second wave of infections of COVID-19, such scenario was not considered.


Considering the above, the Group’s revised guidance for the year is as follows:

FERRARI N.V.
NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
        
Background

        Ferrari is among the world’s leading luxury brands. The activities of Ferrari N.V. (herein referred to as “Ferrari” or the “Company” and together with its subsidiaries the “Group”) and its subsidiaries are focused on the design, engineering, production and sale of luxury performance sports cars. The cars are designed, engineered and produced in Maranello and Modena, Italy and sold in more than 60 markets worldwide through a network of 168 authorized dealers operating 188 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 20 Ferrari-owned stores and 23 franchised stores (including 15 Ferrari Store Junior), as well as on the Group’s website. To facilitate the sale of new and pre-owned cars, the Group provides various forms of financing to clients and dealers, including through cooperation and other agreements. 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 sport and street cars.

2. AUTHORIZATION OF INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND COMPLIANCE WITH INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
        
        These Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Ferrari N.V. were authorized for issuance on May 4, 2020, and have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting. The Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements at and for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”), which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and IFRS as endorsed by the European Union. There are no material effects on these Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements resulting from differences between IFRS as issued by the IASB and IFRS as adopted by the European Union. The designation IFRS also includes International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) as well as the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC” and “SIC”). The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those used at December 31, 2019, except as described in the section “New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2020”.

3. BASIS OF PREPARATION FOR INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
        
        The preparation of the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities as well as disclosures of contingent liabilities. If in the future such estimates and assumptions, which are based on management’s best judgment at the date of these Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, deviate from the actual circumstances, the original estimates and assumptions will be modified as appropriate in the period in which the circumstances change. Reference should be made to the section “Use of estimates” in the Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed description of the more significant valuation procedures used by the Group.

        Moreover, in accordance with IAS 34, certain valuation procedures, in particular those of a more complex nature regarding matters such as any impairment of non-current assets, are only carried out in full during the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements, when all the related information necessary is available, other than in the event that there are indications of impairment, in which case an immediate assessment is required. Similarly, the actuarial valuations that are required for the determination of employee benefit provisions are also usually carried out during the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements, except in the event of significant market fluctuations or significant plan amendments, curtailments or settlements.

FERRARI N.V.
NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
New standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2020
The following new standards and amendments effective from January 1, 2020 were adopted by the Group.

Amendments to IFRS 3 – Business Combinations

The Group adopted narrow scope amendments to IFRS 3 - Business Combinations. The amendments aim to help companies determine whether an acquisition made is of a business or a group of assets, emphasizing 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. There was no effect from the adoption of these amendments.

Amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors

The Group adopted amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. The amendments 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. There was no effect from the adoption of these amendments.

Amendments to IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments, IAS 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and IFRS 7 - Financial Instruments: Disclosures

The Group adopted amendments to IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments, IAS 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and IFRS 7 - Financial Instruments: Disclosures, collectively the “Interest Rate Benchmark Reform”. These amendments modify certain hedge accounting requirements in order to provide relief from potential effects of the uncertainty caused by the interbank offered rates (IBOR) reform and require companies to provide additional information to investors about their hedging relationships that are directly affected by these uncertainties. There was no effect from the adoption of these amendments.

Review of the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting

The Group adopted the changes envisaged by the review of the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting, which applies to companies that use the Conceptual Framework to develop accounting policies when no IFRS standard applies to a particular transaction. 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. There was no immediate effect from adoption, however the Group will apply the changes to develop accounting policies when no IFRS standard applies to a particular transaction in the future.

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 2021 or subsequent years are listed below:

        In May 2017 the IASB issued IFRS 17 - Insurance Contracts which establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of insurance contracts issued as well as guidance relating to reinsurance contracts held and investment contracts with discretionary participation features issued. 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.


F-7

FERRARI N.V.
NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
In January 2020 the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current to clarify how to classify debt and other liabilities as current or non-current, and in particular how to classify liabilities with an uncertain settlement ate and liabilities that may be settled by converting to equity. These amendments are effective on or after January 1, 2022. The Group does not expect any material impact from the adoption of these amendments.

Scope of consolidation

        There were no changes in the scope of consolidation for the periods presented in this Interim Report.

4. FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS
        
        The Group is exposed to various operational financial risks, including financial market risk (relating mainly to foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates) credit risk and liquidity risk. The Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all the information and notes on financial risk management required in the annual consolidated financial statements. For a detailed description of the financial risk factors and financial risk management of the Group, reference should be made to Note 30 of the Consolidated Financial Statements at and for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Although there was no significant impacts from the coronavirus COVID-19 (“COVID-19”) pandemic on the Group’s exposure to financial risks or risk management procedures in the periods presented by the these Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, management is continuously monitoring the evolution of COVID-19 as information becomes available and the related effects on the financial position and results of operations of the Group.

To mitigate potential liquidity or refinancing risks in the foreseeable future, the Group is focused on increasing its amount of available liquidity, mainly through additional committed credit lines (an additional amount of €350 million was secured in April 2020, doubling the total committed credit lines available and undrawn to €700 million as compared to March 31, 2020).
