CERTAIN INFORMATION

As used in this Annual Report on Form 20-F (this “Annual Report”), unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references to

Solely for the convenience of the reader, this Annual Report contains translations of certain U.S. dollar amounts into Euros at specified rates. Except as otherwise stated in this Annual Report, all foreign currency transactions are translated into Euros through a specific application embedded in our accounting system, which is powered by the official exchange rates provided by HSBC (Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation) in the City of London, United Kingdom. Specifically, the Consolidated Balance Sheet balances resulting from our financial statement as of December 31, 2024, are translated at the spot exchange rate as of December 31, 2024, that is $1.00 per €0.9603, while the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss balances are translated at the weighted average exchange rate of non-Euro currency transactions during the reporting period.. No representation is made that such U.S. dollar amounts referred to in this Annual Report could have been or could be converted into Euros at such rates or any other rates. Any discrepancies in any table between totals and sums of the amounts listed are due to rounding.

The audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022 included elsewhere in this Annual Report have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”). Our fiscal semi-annual year-end is June 30 th and our fiscal year-end is December 31 st.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Annual Report contains many statements that are “forward-looking” and uses forward-looking terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “ought to,” “plan,” “possible,” “potentially,” “predicts,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would,” negatives of such terms or other similar statements. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement due to its inherent risk and uncertainties, both general and specific. Although we believe the assumptions on which the forward-looking statements are based are reasonable and within the bounds of our knowledge of our business and operations as of the date of this Annual Report, any or all of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate. As a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions could also be incorrect. The forward-looking statements in this Annual Report include, without limitation, statements relating to:

The forward-looking statements included in this Annual Report are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about our business and business environment. These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are not a guarantee of future performance. Actual results of our operations may differ materially from information contained in the forward-looking statements as a result of risk factors, some of which are described under the headings “Risk Factors”, “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects,” “Information on our Company” and elsewhere in this Annual Report.

These risks and uncertainties are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Annual Report include additional factors which could adversely impact our business and financial performance. The forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report speak only as of the date of this Annual Report or, if obtained from third-party studies or reports, the date of the corresponding study or report, and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements in this Annual Report. Since we operate in an emerging and evolving environment and new risk factors and uncertainties emerge from time to time, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Except as otherwise required by the securities laws of the U.S., the E.U. and Italy, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Annual Report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
