(PIOMBINO DESE, Italy) November 5, 2024 Stevanato Group S.p.A. (NYSE: STVN), a leading global provider of drug containment, drug delivery, and diagnostic solutions to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and life sciences industries, today announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2024.

Third Quarter 2024 Highlights

-Revenue for the third quarter of 2024 increased 2% to 277.9 million, compared with the same period last year, and high-value solutions represented 36% of total revenue.

-For the third quarter, diluted earnings per share were 0.11 and adjusted diluted earnings per share were 0.12.

-Adjusted EBITDA margin for the third quarter was 22.9%.

-The Company is maintaining its fiscal year 2024 revenue guidance and continues to expect revenue in the range of 1,090 million to 1,110 million. The Company is lowering its adjusted EBITDA guidance and now expects a range of 257 million to 263 million, and its adjusted diluted EPS guidance to a range of 0.47 to 0.49.

Third Quarter 2024 Results

For the third quarter of 2024, revenue increased 2% (3% on a constant currency basis) compared with the same period last year, to 277.9 million, driven by a 6% increase in the Biopharmaceutical and Diagnostic Solutions (BDS) Segment, which offset a 15% decline in the Engineering Segment.

Revenue from high-value solutions increased to 36% of total revenue in the third quarter of 2024, compared with 32% for the same period last year, driven primarily by increased customer demand for high-performance syringes, and to a lesser extent, other products. As expected, lower revenue from EZ-fill vials unfavorably impacted the mix within high-value solutions for the third quarter of 2024.

Gross profit margin for the third quarter of 2024 decreased to 26.8%, compared with 30.5% for the same period last year, primarily due to (i) the effects of vial destocking, including underutilization of vial lines, as well as lower revenue from more accretive EZ-fill vials, (ii) the ongoing temporary inefficiencies related to the start-up of the Company's new U.S. manufacturing facility as well as higher costs as the Company increases its validation activities, and (iii) higher costs in the Engineering Segment as the Company advances its business optimization plan.

For the third quarter of 2024, operating profit margin decreased to 14.8%, compared with 18.8% for the same period last year, driven primarily by the reduction in gross profit.

Franco Stevanato, Chief Executive Officer, stated, While we are maintaining our revenue guidance, we are lowering our adjusted EBITDA guidance to reflect higher costs predominantly in the Engineering Segment as we advance our business optimization plan, and to a lesser extent higher costs as we increase our validation activities. We remain focused on execution, and we are making progress on many fronts. Our growth investments are currently ramping, and in the third quarter our Latina project was profitable at the gross profit level, while in Fishers, we launched commercial production and generated our first commercial revenue. In Engineering, the actions we

have taken have helped us to complete a handful of highly complex projects for key customers that were previously delayed. The effects of destocking are expected to gradually improve into 2025, as we are starting to see some signs of stabilization in vial demand as customers work down inventories.

Biopharmaceutical and Diagnostic Solutions Segment (BDS)

For the third quarter of 2024, revenue from the BDS Segment grew 6% to 233.0 million (7% on a constant currency basis), compared with the same period last year, driven primarily by growth in high-value syringes and other products, which was offset by a 38% decline in revenue attributable to vials. The decline was more pronounced in more accretive EZ-fill vials.

Revenue from high-value solutions increased 17% to 100.4 million, while revenue from other containment and delivery solutions was 132.6 million and consistent with the same period last year.

Gross profit margin for the BDS Segment decreased to 28% for the third quarter of 2024, mostly due to the expected temporary effects from (i) vial destocking, and (ii) inefficiencies and higher costs tied to the start-up phase of the Company's new manufacturing facility in the United States.

For the third quarter of 2024, revenue from the Engineering Segment decreased 15% to 44.8 million, compared with the same period last year.

The Company remains focused on executing a large volume of work currently in progress and implementing its business optimization plan which is designed to address the current challenges, improve the overall health of the business and return the business to profitable growth.

For the third quarter of 2024, gross profit margin decreased to 15.6%, compared with 18.5% for the same period last year, driven by higher costs related to certain highly complex projects and expenses tied to our business optimization plan.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of 78.0 million and net debt of 284.3 million. The Company believes that it has available liquidity to fund its strategic priorities over the next twelve months through a combination of cash on hand, available credit, cash generated from operations, and the ability to access additional financing.

As expected, capital expenditures for the third quarter of 2024 totaled 58.8 million, as the Company continues to ramp-up capacity in response to customer demand for high-value solutions in Fishers, Indiana and Latina, Italy.

For the third quarter of 2024, cash flow from operating activities was 18.3 million. For the third quarter of 2024, cash flow used for the purchase of property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets totaled 47.8 million, driven primarily by capital expenditures supporting strategic initiatives. This resulted in negative free cash flow of 28.4 million for the third quarter of 2024.

Updated 2024 Guidance

The Company is maintaining its full year 2024 revenue guidance and continues to expect revenue in the range of 1,090 million to 1,110 million.

The Company is lowering its guidance for adjusted EBITDA and for adjusted diluted earnings per share to reflect higher costs and now expects:

-Adjusted EBITDA in the range of 257 million to 263 million, and

-Adjusted diluted EPS in the range of 0.47 to 0.49.

Franco Stevanato, concluded, Our long-term prospects remain bright and there is much to be excited about. We operate in growing end markets and we continue to deliver organic growth, primarily driven by high-value solutions, the main pillar of our long-range construct. This confirms our strategy that we are investing in the right areas to meet growing customer demand for high-value solutions, driven by strong secular tailwinds. We aim to capitalize on favorable demand trends and set the path to durable organic growth, and expanding margins which will drive shareholder value.
