Gross Margin Peak: Piaggio achieved a record gross margin of 30.5% in Q1, despite lower revenue, reflecting successful process and productivity improvements.
Revenue Decline: Revenues were down in Q1 due to softer market demand globally, especially in Europe, the US, China, and India, and transitions like the Euro 5 to Euro 5+ in Europe.
EBITDA Guidance: Management expects full-year 2025 EBITDA to be around EUR 290 million, acknowledging the tough environment.
Cash Management: Inventory reduction of EUR 20 million and improved cash absorption versus last year, with net debt targeted below EUR 500 million.
Strategic Focus: Continued investment in both thermic and electric vehicles for key markets, but capital expenditure will remain cautious unless market stability improves.
Pricing Discipline: Piaggio is maintaining pricing rather than engaging in aggressive discounting, especially in Europe and APAC.
