GEOPOLITICAL UPDATE With reference to the conflict in Ukraine started on 24 February, Moncler Group s management confirms that both the store in Kiev and all commercial activities in Russia have also been temporarily closed. The Group is present in the two countries with dedicated e-commerce, and for the brand Moncler with two directly operated stores (DOS) and three wholesale mono-brand stores (SiS). More- over, the Group has around 100 multi-brand wholesale doors.
The total exposure to the two countries in FY 2021 in- cluding revenues generated by Russian tourists buying outside Russia was less than 2% of the Group s revenues. Although the uncertainty regarding the development of the situation and its possible impacts on global economies remains very high, signifi- cant consequences on FY 2022 results are currently not foreseen.
With regard to its supply chain, Moncler Group specifies that it does not purchase raw materials in Ukraine or Russia, nor use third-parties producers based there. At the date of the approv- al of the Draft Consolidated Results, both the direct production site located in Bacau, Romania, and all third-party manufacturers based in neighboring areas are operating without any disruption due to the conflict in Ukraine. Moreover, whilst at logistics lev- el the current situation could have an impact on the transporta- tion systems and might lead to delays in the shipments of goods, there are currently no significant issues. Regarding the rising of the production costs, not only linked to the geopolitical situation, and to the potential increase in logistics costs, the Group con- firms that at the momentMoncl it does not expect any impact on profitability for FY 2022.
In Russia and Ukraine, Moncler employs 19 people with whom it is in constant contact to ensure all necessary support is being provided. In particular, with regards to its employees in Ukraine that have decided to leave the country, the Group is pro- viding economic and organizational aids.
The Moncler Group also supports UNHCR, the United Na- tions High Commissioner for Refugees which protects and as- sists refugees around the world, and other organizations active in the area.
