Medacta Group SA announces a revision of the full year guidance

Press Release
2019 GUIDANCE REVISION

CASTEL SAN PIETRO, 5 December 2019 - Medacta Group SA announces a revision of the full year guidance.

The company continues to expand, achieving strong revenue growth well above the market growth rate while maintaining a high profitability level.

Following an unexpected weak demand in the US and in some minor markets covered by distributors, the overall growth rate in November was below expectations, 8% compared to 17% of the same period of last year. This performance changed the scenario of the year-end forecasted results. Accordingly, the year-end 2019 guidance is as follows:

- Revenue: reported growth in the range of 12-14%, equal to 10-12% on a constant currency basis (previously equal to 13-17%)

- Adjusted EBITDA: approximately 30% +/-1% (previously 32% +/-1%)

- Change in Net Working Capital: 5-7% of total revenue (maintained)

- CapEx: 12-15% of total revenue (previously 10-12%)

We expect that this revision on full year performance does not affect the mid-term performance.
Medacta is planning to report preliminary unaudited top-line figures on 21 January 2020 and full-year 2019 results on 6 April 2020.
