1. Profile of DeA Capital S.p.A.

With an investment portfolio of around EUR 840 million and assets under management of over EUR 11,000 million, DeA Capital S.p.A. is one of Italy’s largest alternative investment operators. The company, which operates in both the private equity investment and alternative asset management businesses, is listed on the FTSE Italia STAR segment of the Milan stock exchange, and heads the De Agostini Group in the area of financial investments. DeA Capital has "permanent" capital, and therefore has the advantage – compared with traditional private equity funds, which are normally restricted to a pre-set duration – of greater flexibility in optimising the timing of entry to and exit from investments. In terms of investment policy, this flexibility allows it to adopt an approach based on value creation over the medium to long term. PRIVATE EQUITY INVESTMENT

With regard to the corporate structure shown above, on 1 January 2012, the merger by incorporation of the wholly-owned subsidiary IDeA Alternative Investments into DeA Capital S.p.A., which was decided by the Boards of Directors of these companies on 26 July 2011, became effective. The purpose of the merger, which entailed the reorganisation of the DeA Capital Group’s corporate structure, was to centralise within the parent company the cash flows from the Alternative Asset Management business, and to determine the strategic guidelines for this business. Subsequently, on 28 March 2012, an agreement was signed with Deb Holding, a company controlled by the director Daniel Buaron that holds 30% of the share capital of FARE Holding. The purpose of the agreement was to bring forward, with effect from 24 April 2012, the exercise of the option to sell the stake in FARE Holding held by Deb Holding to DeA Capital S.p.A. Under the agreements stipulated, on 24 April 2012 DeA Capital S.p.A. took full control of FARE Holding, and changed the company name of FARE Holding and its subsidiaries FARE and FAI, to DeA Capital Real Estate, IDeA Servizi Immobiliari and IDeA Agency respectively. Lastly, on 11 April 2012, an agreement was signed with Massimo Caputi and the company he controls, Feidos S.p.A., which together own a stake of 41.69% in I.F.IM. (IFIM), which in turn holds a stake of 20.98% in IDeA FIMIT SGR. The purpose of the agreement was to bring forward, to this date, the exercise of the option to sell the stakes in IFIM held by Massimo Caputi and Feidos to DeA Capital S.p.A. Following the transaction, DeA Capital S.p.A. acquired full control of IFIM.

4. Significant events in the third quarter of 2012 The significant events that occurred in the third quarter of 2012 are summarised below. For events that took place during the first half of the year, please refer to the Half-Year Report to 30 June 2012, which was approved by the Board of Directors on 29 August 2012. IDeA FIMIT – Acquisition of the business division Duemme SGR

On 1 July 2012, the deed of transfer signed by IDeA FIMIT SGR and Duemme SGR for the business division comprising joint real estate investment funds managed by Duemme SGR (a subsidiary of the Banca Esperia Group specialising in asset management services) became effective. With the transfer of the business division, IDeA FIMIT SGR has taken over the management of eight funds with a total value of around EUR 520 million. This transaction confirms IDeA FIMIT SGR’s position as Italian leader with 31 real estate funds managed, and puts it among the major real estate asset management companies in Europe, thanks also to the expansion of its circle of institutional investors.

Private equity funds/real estate On 3 July 2012, 6 September 2012 and 14 September 2012, the DeA Capital Group increased its investment in the IDeA I FoF, ICF II, IDeA OF I, IDeA EESS and AVA funds, with total payments of EUR 8.9 million (EUR 3.9 million, EUR 1.6 million, EUR 3.2 million, EUR 0.1 million and EUR 0.1 million respectively). On 3 July 2012, the DeA Capital Group received capital reimbursements totalling EUR 2.2 million from the IDeA I FoF fund, to be used in full to reduce the value of the units. On 4 September 2012, the IDeA EESS fund completed the third closing, taking overall commitments to around EUR 59.5 million. Following the entry of the new shareholders, DeA Capital Investments held a 21.45% stake.

Loan agreement with Mediobanca – partial use of the revolving line On 25 September 2012 and following the end of the third quarter, the DeA Capital Group made full use of the EUR 40 million revolving credit line with Mediobanca – Banca di Credito Finanziario S.p.A.

Investments in associates

- Santé (parent company of GDS)

Headquarters: France Sector: Healthcare Website: www.generale-de-sante.fr Investment details: On 3 July 2007, DeA Capital S.p.A. finalised the purchase, through its wholly-owned subsidiary DeA Capital Investments S.A., of a 43.01% stake in Santé S.A., the parent company of Générale de Santé S.A. both directly and through Santé Dévéloppement Europe S.A.S. At 30 September 2012, the DeA Capital Group's stake was 42.89% (i.e. 42.99% in economic terms). Brief description: Founded in 1987 and listed on the Eurolist market in Paris since 2001, Générale de Santé is a leading player in the private healthcare sector in France with revenues of about EUR 2 billion at end-2011. France is the second largest country in Europe in terms of annual healthcare expenditure after Germany. Its healthcare system is one of the most advanced in the world, is still heavily fragmented and is marked by the presence of numerous independent hospitals. The company has approximately 19,400 employees and 106 clinics in total. In addition, it is the main independent association of doctors in France (over 5,000 doctors). Its activities include medicine, surgery, obstetrics, oncology and radiotherapy, mental health, subacute pathologies and rehabilitation. The company operates under the following names: Générale de Santé Cliniques (acute care), Médipsy (psychiatry), Dynamis (rehabilitation) and Généridis (radiotherapy). The investment in Santé, which is reported under “Investments in associates”, is valued at approximately EUR 229.7 million in the consolidated financial statements to 30 September 2012 (EUR 235.2 million at 31 December 2011). The decrease compared with 31 December 2011 is due to the combined effect of the loss for the period of EUR 6.5 million and the increase in the fair value of the interest rate swaps taken out to hedge interest rate risk on debt exposure (EUR 1.0 million).

EBIT 105 57 83.2%

Group net profit 43 4 n.a.

Net financial debt (835) (906) -7.8% With regard to GDS’s operating performance, revenues in the first nine months of 2012 were slightly down on the previous year, but up by 2.3% on a same-structure basis (stripping out the impact on the 2011 figures of the clinics sold during that year). This was achieved as the new clinics that were opened during the period (two in the rehabilitation segment, two in psychiatry and one in medicine, surgery and obstetrics) gradually became fully operational and as a result of growth in the volume of activities. Note however that this growth in revenues occurred against a backdrop of mounting pressure to grow the top line, influenced by (i) trends in demand (a gradual shift in the mix of services offered towards outpatients provision, which have a lower unit cost/lower margins compared with full hospitalisation, and the postponement by patients of non-urgent treatment due to the economic crisis); and (ii) the regulatory framework and the definition of the provision of hospital services (increasing competitive pressure from public operators, that benefit from heavy government investment through discretionary components in the health budget, which offset the unfavourable trend in prices). In light of this trend in revenues, combined with the partial rigidity of the cost structure, it became clear that, in order to maintain expected profit levels, the reorganisation into “hubs” (chains of clinics that optimise provision of the service by tailoring it to the requirements of the relevant geographical area) could no longer be postponed. With specific reference to the final figures to 30 September 2012, a comparison of the EBIT and net result with last year’s figures shows that these were affected by one-off costs relating to the Plan Social completed in 2011 (with an effect on the net result of around EUR -19 million) and to the capital gains made on the clinics that were sold in 2012 (EUR 29 million). Net debt of EUR 835 million represents an improvement on the figure of EUR 854 million at 30 September 2012, thanks partly to the receipts from the clinics that were sold.

- Sigla Luxembourg (parent company of Sigla)

Headquarters: Italy Sector: Consumer creditWebsite: www.siglacredit.it Investment details: On 5 October 2007, DeA Capital Investments finalised the acquisition of a stake (currently 41.39%) in Sigla Luxembourg, the holding company that controls Sigla, which operates in Italy and provides finance to all customer segments. Brief description: Sigla, which is recorded in the special list pursuant to art. 107 of the T.U.B. (Italian consolidated banking law) with effect from 31 March 2011, specialises in personal loans and "salary-backed loans". It is a benchmark operator in the provision of financial services to households, and operates throughout Italy, chiefly through a network of agents. The company’s product range of salary-backed loans and personal loans was expanded in 2010 to include the servicing of portfolios of unsecured non-performing loans (personal loans and credit cards).

The investment in Sigla Luxembourg, which is reported under “Equity investments in associates”, is valued at approximately EUR 12.6 million in the consolidated financial statements to 30 September 2012 (EUR 22.0 million at 31 December 2011). The decrease compared with 31 December 2011 relates to the EUR 0.4 million loss for the period and an impairment charge of EUR 9.0 million to align the carrying value with the company’s pro-rata share of the net asset value at the same date.

Sigla (EUR million) First 9 months 2012 First 9 months 2011 % chg.

Loans to customers* 82.2 85.3 -3.6%

Revenues from loans to customers 2.9 3.8 -23.0%

Revenues from CQS 3.1 5.1 -39.0%

Group net profit (1.0) 0.0 n.a.

* Net receivables exclude salary-backed loans (CQS) Sigla’s operating performance in the first nine months of 2012 recorded a decline at all levels of the income statement compared with the previous year, due mainly to the contraction in the number of salary-backed loans granted (a typically less capital-intensive product, on which the Group has gradually repositioned itself). At 30 September 2012, they recorded a fall of 41.2% compared with the same period in the previous year, which given the substantial rigidity in the cost structure, led to a loss of around EUR 1 million. Although the Group considers that Sigla is in a good position as regards the restructuring of the salary-backed loans business being undertaken following the entry into force of the new legislation required by the Regulator (increased pricing transparency and a reduction in the number of intermediate levels in the existing value chain between the organisation that grants the loan and the consumer, with the resulting sector concentration), the general macroeconomic scenario has forced us to make the above-mentioned impairment on the

goodwill implicit in the carrying value. Specifically, the ongoing effects of the economic crisis, together with the consequences arising from the deleveraging requirements of banks that grant salary-backed loans, have led to much longer times for top-line growth than were originally reflected in the asset valuation.

Investments in other companies

- Kenan Investments (indirect parent company of Migros)

Headquarters: TurkeySector: Food retail Website: www.migros.com.tr Investment details: In 2008, the DeA Capital Group acquired about 17% of the capital of Kenan Investments, the company heading the structure to acquire the controlling interest in Migros. Brief description: Migros was established in 1954, and is the leading company in the food retail sector in Turkey with a share of about 34% in the organised retail market. Growth in the food retail sector in Turkey is a relatively recent phenomenon, brought about by the transition from traditional systems such as bakkals (small stores typically run by families) to an increasingly widespread organised distribution model driven by expansion and the modernisation process under way in Turkey. The company has a total of 839 outlets (at 30 June 2012) with a total net sales area of approximately 840,000 square metres. Migros is present in all seven regions of Turkey, and has a marginal presence in Kazakhstan and Macedonia. The company operates under the following names: Migros, Tansas and Macrocenter (supermarkets), 5M (hypermarkets), Ramstore (supermarkets abroad) and Kangurum (online store). One of the main extraordinary transactions completed by Migros was the sale of discount arm Şok on 24 August 2011 to Yildiz Holding Group, a leading Turkish food producer, for around TRY 600 million. The business sold consisted of some 1,200 supermarkets, with revenues in 2010 of TRY 1.2 billion (or around 19% of Migros’ consolidated revenues). The equity investment in Kenan Investments is recorded in the consolidated financial statements to 30 September 2012 at EUR 198.2 million (compared with EUR 127.1 million at 31 December 2011). The increase of EUR 71.1 million was due to the rise in the value of Migros shares (TRY 18.7 per share at 30 September 2012, compared with approximately TRY 12.6 per share at 31 December 2011), and the strengthening of the Turkish lira against the euro (2.31 TRY/EUR at 30 September 2012 versus 2.44 TRY/EUR at 31 December 2011). The effect on the DeA Capital Group’s NAV of this change in fair value was partially offset by the provisioning of estimated carried interest of around EUR 10.30 million, to be paid to the lead investor, BC Partners, based on the total capital gain. This was partly recognised in the income statement (EUR 3.0 million) and partly recognised in the fair value reserve (EUR 7.3 million).

* Awaiting publication of the data of the first 9 months - the data for half year are provided In macroeconomic terms, the Turkish economy experienced GDP growth in the first half of 2012 of 3% y/y. The food retail sector in Turkey remained buoyant in the first half of 2012, with sustained growth in commercial space (11.5% in 12 months) and the supermarket segment (10.2% yoy), which maintained its dominant position. In terms of Migros’ operating performance, revenues grew by 13.9% in the first half of 2012, compared with the first half of 2011 (the scope of activities for which does not include the discount division sold in August 2011), driven by the expansion of the network of sales outlets (135 new supermarkets were opened in 12 months), accompanied by more modest growth in EBITDA, and broadly stable operating profit. The net result increased, due to the revaluation of the debt component in Euro following the rise of the Turkish lira. As Migros announced previously, the company plans to expand the network by opening about 100 new points of sale per year in 2012 and the medium term. The new openings will mainly be in the form of small supermarkets of between 150 and 2,500 square metres. Specifically, the 150-350 square metre size will be used in high-traffic residential areas with a special emphasis on fresh products and a much broader assortment than in discount stores.

At its meeting on 20 July 2011, the Board of Directors of IDeA Capital Funds SGR approved a number of regulatory changes. These included changing the name of the IDeA Co-Investment Fund I to IDeA Opportunity Fund I (IDeA OF I) and extending investment opportunities to qualified minority interests, independently or via syndicates. The DeA Capital Group has a total commitment of up to EUR 101.8 million in the fund. Brief description: IDeA OF I has total assets of approximately EUR 217 million. Its objective is to invest via syndicates with a lead investor, independently, or by purchasing qualified minority interests. At 30 September 2012, IDeA OF I had called up approximately 55.9% of the total commitment after making six investments:

- on 8 October 2008, it acquired a 5% stake in Giochi Preziosi S.p.A., a company active in the production, marketing and sale of children’s games with a product line covering childhood to early adolescence

- on 22 December 2008, it acquired a 4% stake in Manutencoop Facility Management

S.p.A. by subscribing to a reserved capital increase This company is Italy’s leading integrated facility management company, providing and managing a wide range of property management services and other services for individuals and government agencies

- on 31 March 2009, it acquired a 17.43% stake in Grandi Navi Veloci S.p.A., an Italian shipping company that transports passengers and goods on various routes around the Mediterranean Sea. On 2 May 2011, with the finalisation of Marinvest's entry into the shareholder structure of Grandi Navi Veloci S.p.A. by subscribing to a reserved capital increase, the stake held by IDeA OF I was diluted to 9.21% On 2 August 2012, IDeA OF I’s decision not to subscribe, on a pro-rata basis, to a further capital increase led to a dilution in its holding of 3.68%;

- on 10 February 2011, it invested in a bond that is convertible into shares of Euticals

S.p.A., the Italian leader in the production of active ingredients for pharmaceutical companies that operate in the generics sector, for EUR 10 million. As part of the extraordinary transaction that led to the transfer of the controlling share in Euticals S.p.A., on 3 April 2012 these bonds were transferred into the acquisition vehicle, Lauro 57, which now owns 100% of Euticals S.p.A.; in exchange, a stake of 7.77%

Page 24: DeA Capital_res_int_di_ges_al_30_9_2012_eng

Interim Management Report to 30 September 2012

24

was acquired in the same acquisition vehicle (recording a capital gain of EUR 6.9 million);

- on 25 February 2011, it purchased a 9.29% stake in Telit Communications PLC, the

third-largest producer of machine-to-machine communications systems in the world; the stake held by OF I was subsequently diluted to 9.13% due to the exercise of stock options by the company's management

- On 11 September 2012, an investment agreement was signed with Filocapital S.r.l., the main shareholder in Iacobucci HF Electronics S.p.A. (“Iacobucci”), a company that manufactures trolleys for aeroplanes and trains, and specialises in the design, production and marketing of components for aircraft fittings and furnishings. A maximum of EUR 12 million will be invested, in several phases: (i) subscription to a bond that is convertible into Iacobucci shares, totalling EUR 6 million on the closing date; (ii) subscription to a capital increase, in divisible form, totalling EUR 6 million, to be paid in two equal tranches – following approval of the half-yearly figures to 30 June 2013 and the financial statements to 31 December 2013 – based on the achievement of certain EBITDA and net debt figures. If the above-mentioned convertible bond were converted and the events for a capital increase materialised, IDeA OF I would acquire an overall stake of 34.9% in Iacobucci.

On 9 October 2012, after the closing date for the period, IDeA OF I invested EUR 15 million to acquire an indirect stake of 4.6% in Patentes Talgo S.A. (“Talgo”), a Spanish company that designs and produces solutions for the rail sector, chiefly sold on the international market (high-speed trains, and maintenance vehicles and systems).

The units held in IDeA OF I were reported in the consolidated financial statements to 30 September 2012 at EUR 42.0 million. The change in value compared with the figure at 31 December 2011 is attributable to capital calls of EUR 3.8 million, an increase of EUR 1.0 million in the fair value and pro-rata net profit for the period of EUR 0.4 million.

- IDeA FIMIT SGR

Headquarters: Italy Sector: Alternative Asset Management - Real EstateWebsite: www.firstatlantic.it Investment details: IDeA FIMIT SGR is the most important independent real estate asset management company in Italy, with around EUR 9.8 billion in assets under management and 31 managed funds (including five listed funds). This puts it among the major partners of Italian and international investors in promoting, creating and managing closed-end mutual investment funds in real estate. IDeA FIMIT SGR has three main lines of business:

the development of real estate mutual investment funds dedicated to institutional clients and private investors

the promotion of innovative real estate financial instruments to satisfy investors’ increasing demands

the professional management (technical, administrative and financial) of real estate funds with the assistance of in-house experts as well as the best independent technical, legal and tax advisors on the market

The company has concentrated its investments in transactions with low risk, stable returns, low volatility, simple financial structures and, most importantly, an emphasis on real estate value. In particular, the asset management company specialises in "core" and "core plus" properties, but its major investments also include important "value added" transactions.

Due in part to successful transactions concluded in recent years, the asset management company is able to rely on a panel of prominent unit-holders consisting of Italian and international investors with a high standing such as pension funds, bank and insurance groups, capital companies and sovereign funds. On 1 July 2012, the deed of transfer signed by IDeA FIMIT SGR and Duemme SGR for the business division comprising joint real estate investment funds managed by Duemme SGR (a subsidiary of the Banca Esperia Group specialising in asset management services) became effective. The transfer of the business division has enabled IDeA FIMIT SGR to take on the management of eight real estate funds with assets that include around 60 buildings, worth a total of approximately EUR 520 million.

With regard to IDeA FIMIT SGR’s operating performance, the comparison between the income statement for the first nine months of 2012 and for the same period in the previous year (see the table below) is of limited significance, in view of the changes in business structure that took place on 3 October 2011 (integration of FARE SGR and FIMIT SGR, with the creation of IDeA FIMIT SGR).

Comprehensive income - Income statement

The group made a loss in the first nine months of 2012 of about EUR 18.7 million, compared with a profit of around EUR 3.0 million in the same period of 2011. When comparing the results of the first nine months of 2012 with those of the same period in 2011, note the significant change in the scope of consolidation of the alternative asset management business, which includes FIMIT SGR’s contribution from 3 October 2011 (when its integration with FARE became effective). Revenues and other income break down as follows:

- alternative asset management fees totalling EUR 62.2 million - a contribution from investments valued at equity of EUR -7.0 million (EUR -19.9 million

in the same period in 2011), due to the investment in Santé (around EUR -6.5 million) and the investment in Sigla (around EUR -0.5 million)

- other investment income, net of liabilities, totalling EUR -7.5 million (EUR +27.5 million in the same period of 2011, which included the capital gain made on the sale of a portion of the Migros shares held by Kenan Investments)

- other revenues and income totalling EUR 7.0 million due largely to the alternative asset management business (EUR 7.7 million in the same period of 2011)

Operating costs totalled EUR 60.7 million (EUR 31.3 million in the same period of 2011), of which EUR 48.3 million was attributable to Alternative Asset Management, EUR 8.1 million to the Private Equity Investment business and holding company activities. Note that Alternative Asset Management costs include the effects of the amortisation of intangible assets, totalling EUR 10.4 million, recorded when a portion of the purchase price of the investments was allocated. Financial income and charges, which totalled EUR -6.3 million at 30 September 2012 (EUR -2.0 million in the same period of 2011), mainly related to the cost of exercising the put option on subsidiaries’ minority holdings, income generated from cash and cash equivalents, financial charges and income/charges on derivative contracts. The total tax impact for the first nine months of 2012 (EUR -0.4 million, compared with EUR -5.4 million in the same period of 2011) is the combined result of taxes of EUR 1.8 million due in respect of Alternative Asset Management activities, and tax credits of EUR 0.4 million relating to the Private Equity Investment business and of EUR 1.0 million for holding activities. Of the total consolidated net loss of EUR 18.7 million, about EUR -19.8 million was attributable to the Private Equity Investment business, around EUR +12.8 million to Alternative Asset Management and approximately EUR -11.7 million to holding company operations/eliminations.

Comprehensive income - Statement of Performance - IAS 1

Comprehensive income or the Statement of Performance (IAS 1), in which performance for the period attributable to the Group is reported including results posted directly to shareholders' equity, reflects a net profit of approximately EUR 46.0 million compared with a net loss of around EUR 8.8 million in the same period of 2011. Results posted directly to shareholders' equity for the first nine months of 2012 mainly relate to the increase in fair value of Kenan Investments/Migros; this was attributable to the adjustment of the valuation on the basis of the market value of Migros shares at 30 September 2012 of TRY 18.7 per share (compared with a figure of around TRY 12.6 per share implied in the valuation at 31 December 2011), and the updated TRY/EUR exchange rate.

At 30 September 2012, group shareholders’ equity was approximately EUR 709.6 million, compared with EUR 669.0 million at 31 December 2011. The increase of around EUR 40.6 million in this item in the first nine months of 2012 was due mainly to the events described in the Statement of Performance – IAS 1 (totalling EUR 46.0 million) and to the effects of the share buyback plan (expenses of EUR 6.0 million).

Comprehensive income – Net debt

At 30 September 2012, consolidated net debt was approximately EUR -110.6 million, as shown in the table below, which provides a breakdown of assets and liabilities and a comparison with the same figures at 31 December 2011: Net debt at 30 September Net financial position Change(EUR million)

September 30,2012

December 31,2011

The change in consolidated net debt in the first nine months of 2012 was due to the combined effect of the factors below:

cash outlay of EUR 6.0 million for the share buy-back plan payment of dividends to third parties of EUR 6.3 million operating cash flow (mainly comprising fees/revenues for services, net of current

expenses and investment costs, as well as the result of financial and tax management), totalling EUR 4.2 million.

The company believes that the cash and cash equivalents and the other financial resources available are sufficient to meet the requirement relating to payment commitments already subscribed in funds, also taking into account the amounts expected to be called up/distributed by these funds. With regard to these residual commitments, the company believes that the funds and credit lines currently available, as well as those that will be generated by its operational and financing activities, will enable the DeA Capital Group to meet the financing required for its investment activity and to manage working capital and repay debts when they become due.

The following points relate to the individual items that make up the consolidated net cash position:

"Cash and cash equivalents" refer to cash and bank deposits, including interest accrued during the period, held in the name of group companies

"Available-for-sale financial assets" include investments to be regarded as a temporary use of cash

"Non-current financial liabilities" mainly include:

- EUR 100.0 million for the use of the credit line of the same amount provided by Mediobanca

- EUR 45.5 million, as part of the full acquisition of the FARE Group, in relation to the payment of the deferred purchase price, and the earn-out that DeA Capital anticipates paying

- EUR 12.8 million for the use of the credit line signed by the subsidiary IDeA FIMIT SGR with Banca Intermobiliare di Investimenti e Gestioni S.p.A.

Page 44: DeA Capital_res_int_di_ges_al_30_9_2012_eng

Interim Management Report to 30 September 2012

- EUR 1.6 million related to the fair value estimate of payables for put options on minority interests in subsidiaries.

6. Other information Transactions with parent companies, subsidiaries and related parties

Transactions with related parties, including intercompany transactions, were typical, usual transactions that are part of the normal business activities of Group companies. Such transactions are concluded at standard market terms for the nature of the goods and/or services offered.

Other information At 30 September 2012, the Group had 177 employees (167 at the end of 2011), including 32 senior managers, 54 middle managers and 91 clerical staff. 160 of these worked in Alternative Asset Management and 17 in Private Equity Investment/the holding company. These staff levels do not include personnel on secondment from the parent company De Agostini S.p.A. The company signed a service agreement with the controlling shareholder, De Agostini S.p.A., for the latter to provide operating services in the administration, finance, control, legal, corporate and tax areas. This agreement, which is renewable annually, is priced at market rates, and is intended to allow the company to maintain a streamlined organisational structure in keeping with its development policy, and at the same time to obtain adequate operational support. DeA Capital S.p.A. and IDeA Capital Funds SGR have adopted the national tax consolidation scheme of the B&D Group (the Group headed by B&D Holding di Marco Drago e C. S.a.p.a.). This option was exercised jointly by each of the two companies and B&D Holding di Marco Drago e C. S.a.p.a. by signing the "Regulation for participation in the national tax consolidation scheme for companies in the De Agostini Group" and notifying the tax authorities of this option pursuant to the procedures and terms and conditions set out by law. The option for DeA Capital S.p.A., which was renewed during 2011, is irrevocable for the three-year period of 2011-2013 unless the requirements for applying the scheme are not met, while in the case of IDeA Capital Funds SGR, the option was signed during this period and relates to the three-year period of 2012-2014. With regard to the regulatory requirements set out in art. 36 of the Market Regulation on conditions for the listing of parent companies of companies formed or regulated by laws of non-EU countries and of significant importance in the consolidated financial statements, it is hereby noted that no Group company falls within the scope of the above-mentioned provision. Furthermore, conditions prohibiting listing pursuant to art. 37 of the Market Regulation relating to companies subject to the management and coordination of other parties do not apply.

3. Statement of Consolidated Comprehensive Income (Statement of

Performance - IAS 1) Comprehensive income or the Statement of Performance (IAS 1), in which performance for the period attributable to the Group is reported including results posted directly to shareholders' equity, reflects a net profit of approximately EUR 46.0 million compared with a net loss of around EUR 8.8 million in the same period of 2011. Results posted directly to shareholders' equity for the first nine months of 2012 mainly relate to the increase in fair value of Kenan Investments/Migros; this was attributable to the adjustment of the valuation on the basis of the market value of Migros shares at 30 September 2012 of TRY 18.7 per share (compared with a figure of around TRY 12.6 per share implied in the valuation at 31 December 2011), and the updated TRY/EUR exchange rate.

6. Notes to the Accounts

Structure and contents of the Interim Management Report to 30 September

2012 The Interim Management Report to 30 September 2012 (the Report) constitutes the document set out by art. 154-ter of the Testo Unico della Finanza law (TUF). Information regarding the company’s operating performance and financial position is prepared in accordance with the valuation and measurement criteria set out by the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and adopted by the European Commission pursuant to the procedures contained in Regulation (EC) 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and Council of 19 July 2002. The accounting standards used in the Report do not differ significantly from those used at 31 December 2011 and in the Half-Year Report to 30 June 2012. The Report comprises the following consolidated financial statements – the statement of financial position, the income statement, the cash flow statement, the statement of changes in shareholders' equity and the statement of comprehensive income (IAS 1) – and these notes to the accounts; it is also accompanied by the Interim Report on Operations and the Statement of Responsibilities for the Interim Management Report. The consolidated financial statements in the Report have not been audited by the independent auditors. Information relating to the income statement is discussed with reference to the first nine months of 2012 and the first nine months of 2011; information relating to the statement of financial position refers to 30 September 2012 and 31 December 2011. The consolidated financial statements are in the same form as those presented in the accounts to 31 December 2011. As allowed by IAS/IFRS, the preparation of the Report required the use of significant estimates by the company's management, especially with regard to the valuations of the investment portfolio (equity investments and funds). These valuations were determined by directors based on their best judgement and estimation using the knowledge and evidence available at the time the Report was prepared. However, due to objective difficulties in making assessments and the absence of a liquid market, the values assigned to such assets could differ, perhaps significantly, from those that could be obtained by selling the assets. In accordance with the provisions of IAS/IFRS and current laws, the company authorised the publication of the Report by the legal deadline. Basis of consolidation The basis of consolidation had changed at 30 September 2012 compared to 31 December 2011, as a result of:

the merger by incorporation of IDeA Alternative Investments into DeA Capital S.p.A., completed on 1 January 2012

the acquisition of full control of IFIM on 11 April 2012 the acquisition of full control of FARE Holding on 24 April 2012, at which time FARE

Holding changed its name to DeA Capital Real Estate, and its subsidiaries FARE and FAI changed their names to IDeA Servizi Immobiliari and IDeA Agency.

Notes to the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position

NON-CURRENT ASSETS At 30 September 2012, non-current assets totalled EUR 1,009.9 million, compared to EUR 952.6 million at 31 December 2011. Intangible and tangible assets This item includes goodwill (EUR 210.1 million), other intangible assets (EUR 110.3 million) and tangible assets (EUR 1.1 million). Goodwill, which amounted to EUR 210.1 million at 30 September 2012 (unchanged from 31 December 2011), relates to the acquisition of FARE Holding (now called DeA Capital Real Estate), IDeA Capital Funds SGR, IFIM and FIMIT SGR. Intangible assets mainly relate to customer contracts, which arise from the allocation of the merger costs for the acquisition of FARE Holding (now DeA Capital Real Estate), IDeA Capital Funds SGR and FIMIT SGR. Investments in associates This item, which totalled EUR 292.6 million at 30 September 2012 (EUR 302.1 million at 31 December 2011), relates to the assets below:

- the investment in Santé, which was reported at end-2011 at EUR 235.2 million, was recorded at approximately EUR 229.7 million in the consolidated financial statements to 30 September 2012. The decrease compared with 31 December 2011 is due to the combined effect of the loss for the period of EUR 6.5 million and the increase in the fair value of the interest rate swaps taken out to hedge interest rate risk on debt exposure (EUR 1.0 million).

- the investment in Sigla Luxembourg is valued at approximately EUR 12.6 million in the

consolidated financial statements to 30 September 2012 (EUR 22.0 million at 31 December 2011). the decrease compared with 31 December 2011 relates to the EUR 0.4 million loss for the period and an impairment charge of EUR 9.0 million

- the units held in IDeA Opportunity Fund I were reported in the consolidated financial

statements to 30 September 2012 at EUR 42.0 million. The change in value compared with the figure at 31 December 2011 is attributable to capital calls of EUR 3.8 million, an increase of EUR 1.0 million in the fair value and pro-rata net profit for the period of EUR 0.4 million

- the units in the AVA fund had a value of approximately EUR 7.5 million in the consolidated financial statements to 30 September 2012 (in line with the figure recorded at end-2011)

- the units in Harvip Investimenti had a value of approximately EUR 0.8 million in the consolidated financial statements to 30 September 2012 (in line with the figure recorded at end-2011)

The total amount reported for these equity investments in the consolidated financial statements to 30 June 2012 was approximately EUR 198.5 million, compared with EUR 127.4 million at 31 December 2011. The equity investment in Kenan Investments is recorded in the consolidated financial statements to 30 September 2012 at EUR 198.2 million (compared with EUR 127.1 million at 31 December 2011). The increase of EUR 71.1 million was due to the rise in the value of Migros shares (TRY 18.7 per share at 30 September 2012, compared with approximately TRY 12.6 per share at 31 December 2011), and the strengthening of the Turkish lira against the euro (2.31 TRY/EUR at 30 September 2012 versus 2.44 TRY/EUR at 31 December 2011). The effect on the DeA Capital Group’s NAV of this change in fair value was partially offset by the provisioning of estimated carried interest of around EUR 10.30 million, to be paid to the lead investor, BC Partners, based on the total capital gain. This was partly recognised in the income statement (EUR 3.0 million) and partly recognised in the fair value reserve (EUR 7.3 million).

At 30 September 2012, deferred tax assets totalled EUR 4.6 million, compared with EUR 4.1 million at 31 December 2011. Loans and receivables This item totalled EUR 1.9 million at 30 September 2012 (compared with EUR 1.6 million at 31 December 2011) and relates to loans to the senior management of GDS for the capital increase at Santé, which was completed in 2009, subscribed partly by the original shareholders and partly by the senior management of GDS. Other non-current assets This item, valued at EUR 25.7 million at 30 September 2012, is in line with the value at end-2011, and mainly relates to the receivable from the Beta Immobiliare Fund in respect of the final variable commission. The calculation was made pursuant to the provisions of the operating regulations of the Beta Immobiliare fund, taking account of the NAV. This receivable corresponds to the portion of the overperformance commission accrued since the beginning of the fund’s operations that the asset management fund expects to receive.

CURRENT ASSETS At 30 September 2011, current assets totalled EUR 72.6 million, versus EUR 80.6 million at 31 December 2011. The item mainly comprised:

- EUR 46.0 million relating to cash and cash equivalents (EUR 46.8 million at 31

December 2011)

- EUR 7.8 million relating to investments to be considered as a temporary use of cash. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY At 30 September 2012, group shareholders’ equity was approximately EUR 709.6 million, compared with EUR 669.0 million at 31 December 2011. The increase (of approximately EUR 40.6 million) in group shareholders' equity in the first nine months of 2012 was chiefly due to the reasons already discussed in the Statement of Performance - IAS 1 (EUR 46.0 million in total) and to costs of EUR 6.0 million associated with the share buy-back plan.

NON-CURRENT LIABILITIES At 30 September 2012, non-current liabilities totalled EUR 192.2 million compared with EUR 202.7 million at 31 December 2011. Deferred tax liabilities This item totalled EUR 27.0 million at 30 September 2012, compared with EUR 40.5 million at 31 December 2011. This mainly includes deferred tax liabilities relating to intangible assets, which arose after a portion of the cost of acquiring IDeA Capital Funds SGR was allocated to intangible assets (customer contracts), and the tax impact (EUR 22.7 million) of recording variable commissions relating to the allocation of a portion of the acquisition cost of FIMIT SGR as intangible assets. End-of-service payment fund At 30 September 2012, this item totalled EUR 2.7 million, compared with EUR 2.1 million at 31 December 2011, and includes end-of-service payments that are part of defined benefit plans, which are therefore valued using actuarial assessments. Non-current financial liabilities At 30 September 2012 this item totalled EUR 162.5 million, compared with EUR 160.0 million at 31 December 2011, and mainly relates to:

- EUR 100.0 million for the use of the credit line of the same amount provided by Mediobanca

- EUR 45.5 million, as part of the full acquisition of the FARE Group, in relation to the payment of the deferred purchase price, and the earn-out that DeA Capital anticipates paying

- EUR 12.8 million for the use of the credit line signed by the subsidiary IDeA FIMIT SGR with Banca Intermobiliare di Investimenti e Gestioni S.p.A.

- EUR 1.6 million related to the fair value estimate of payables for put options on minority interests in subsidiaries

CURRENT LIABILITIES At 30 September 2012, current liabilities totalled EUR 46.4 million (EUR 27.2 million at 31 December 2011) and consisted of trade payables (EUR 18.7 million), payables to staff and social security institutions (EUR 8.7 million), payables for current taxes and other tax payables (EUR 12.7 million), other payables (EUR 2.4 million) and short-term financial payables (EUR 3.9 million). This last item mainly reflects the short-term debt relating to the acquisition of FARE Holding.

Notes to the Consolidated Income Statement When comparing the results of the first nine months of 2012 with those of the same period in 2011, note the significant change in the scope of consolidation of the alternative asset management business, which includes FIMIT SGR’s contribution from 3 October 2011 (the effective date of its integration with FARE). Alternative asset management fees Alternative asset management fees totalled EUR 62.2 million (EUR 28.1 million in the same period of 2011) and mainly relate to management fees paid to IDeA FIMIT SGR and IDeA Capital Funds SGR for the funds they manage. Income from investments valued at equity Investments valued at equity made a loss of EUR 7.0 million (versus a loss of EUR 19.9 million in the same period of 2011), of which EUR 6.5 million is attributable to the investment in Santé and EUR 0.5 million to the investment in Sigla. Other investment income/charges Investment charges of around EUR 7.5 million (income of EUR 27.5 million in the same period of 2011), mainly reflects the impairment of EUR 9.0 million made on the investment in Sigla Luxembourg. In 2011, it included the capital gain made on the sale of a portion of Migros shares held by Kenan Investments. Service revenues Service revenues were EUR 6.8 million (EUR 7.5 million in the same period of 2011); they mainly relate to services in consulting, management and the sale of real estate held in the portfolios of real estate funds.

Significant events after the end of the period and outlook Significant events after the end of the period

Private equity funds/real estate On 2 October 2012, 3 October 2012 and 16 October 2012, the DeA Capital Group increased its investment in the IDeA I FoF, ICF II, IDeA OF I and IDeA EESS funds, with total payments of EUR 13.3 million (EUR 3.0 million, EUR 3.0 million, EUR 7.2 million and EUR 0.1 million respectively). On 16 October 2012, the DeA Capital Group received capital reimbursements totalling EUR 2.1 million from the IDeA I FoF fund, to be used in full to reduce the value of the units.

IDeA FIMIT SGR – Award of the AMA tender

On 8 October 2012 IDeA FIMIT SGR was awarded the tender organised by Azienda Municipale Ambiente S.p.A. (AMA), Rome, to manage some of its real estate assets. AMA, Rome’s leading operator in environmental services, identified IDeA FIMIT’s bid as the best solution for the creation and management of a real estate investment fund. The fund will manage assets comprising 56 buildings, all located in the Rome region and primarily designated for office use, with an estimated value of EUR 140-160 million. The new fund being created to manage the real estate will have a maximum duration of ten years and will become operational in early 2013. The Group’s technical bid, which had a relative weight of 70%, with the financial proposal accounting for the remainder, was crucial in its selection. This demonstrated the quality of IDeA FIMIT SGR’s bid from a management viewpoint, as it put forward the best proposal for operating and increasing the value of the real estate covered by the tender.

IDeA SIM – Restructuring plan

In October, the DeA Capital Group launched the restructuring plan for IDeA SIM, aimed at allowing it to exit from investment consultancy. To this end, an agreement was reached with the company’s Chief Executive Officer that he would renounce the powers granted to him, and the active asset management agreements were terminated. An agreement was also reached between DeA Capital and IDeA SIM’s CEO to acquire the latter’s 30% stake in the company prior to the company’s removal from the register of brokerage companies, and therefore no later than 29 March 2013.

Outlook The outlook continues to focus on the strategic development guidelines followed last year, with an emphasis on increasing the value of assets in the Private Equity Investment area and on developing the Alternative Asset Management platform. Clearly the economic environment – about which it is still difficult to make forecasts – will influence the industrial and economic performance of the Group’s assets, as well as the outlook for returns on the investments made. The Group believes, however, that it has built a portfolio that is very “resistant” to shocks and one that at the same time is able to benefit from improvements in the environment, particularly on financial markets, which significantly influence expectations of investment value enhancement and the raising of new funds. At the same time, in support of the strategic guidelines set out above, the company will continue to maintain a solid asset and financial structure, implementing any initiative with rigour and discipline.
