1.2 Basis for the preparation
of the separate f inancial statements
1.2.1 Relevant accounting principles
The 2024 separate f inancial statements (“f inancial statements”)
have been prepared in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS") issued
by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB")
and endorsed by the European Union. IFRS also includes
all International Accounting Standards (“IAS")
and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting
Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC"), previously known
as the Standing Interpretations Committee SIC
The f inancial statements include the statement
of f inancial position the income statement the statement
of comprehensive income the statement of changes in equity
the statement of cash f lows and the explanatory notes
to the f inancial statements
122 Presentation of the f inancial statements
T
he Company presents its income statement by destination
the method that is considered most representative for
the business at hand This method is in fact consistent with the
internal reporting and management of the business
With reference to the statement of f inancial position a basis
of presentation has been chosen which makes a distinction
between current and non-current assets and liabilities,
in ac
cordance with the provisions of paragraph 60 and thereafter
of IAS 1.
The statement of cash f lows is prepared under the
indirect method.
1.2.3 Basis for measurement
The f inancial statements have been prepared on the historical
cost basis except for the measurement of certain f inancial
instruments (i.e. derivative measured at fair value in accordance
with IFRS 9) and on a going concern basis.
The f inancial statements are presented in thousand
euros, which is the functional currency of the markets where
the Company mainly operates.
The explanatory notes have been prepared in thousands
of Euros unless stated otherwise.
1.2.4 Directors’ assessment on the assumption of
business continuity
Based on the results of the current year and forecasts
for
future years, the management believes that there are no factors
rendering business continuity uncertain. In particular,
the Companies's f inancial strength and its cash and cash
equivalents at the end of the year guarantee a high level
of f inancial independence to support Moncler's operational needs
and development programmes. For 2025, business operations
are fully guaranteed,
both in terms of product of ferings across
the various markets
and distribution channels and in the ability
to manage and organise business activities.
1.2.5 Use of estimates and valuations
The preparation of the f inancial statements and the related
explanatory notes in conformity with IFRS requires that
management makes estimates and assumptions that af fect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the reporting date.
The actual results could dif fer from those estimates
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed
periodically and any variation is ref lected in the income statement
in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision
af fects only that period or even in subsequent periods
if the revision af fects both current and future periods
In the event that managements estimate and judgment
have a signif icant impact on the amounts recognised
in the f inancial statements or in case that there is a risk of future
adjustments on the amounts recognised for assets
and liabilities in the period immediately after the reporting date
the following notes will include the relevant information
1. General information
The estimates pertain mainly to the following captions of the
Consolidated Financial Statements:
•impairment of non-current assets with indef inite
useful lives and investments;
•provision for losses and contingent liabilities;
•incentive systems and variable remuneration.
Recoverable amount of non-current assets with indef inite
useful lives and investments ("impairment")
Management periodically reviews non-current assets, assets
held for sale and investments in subsidiaries for impairment
if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount may not be recoverable. When a review for impairment
is conducted, the recoverable amount is estimated based
on the present value of future cash f lows expected to derive
from the asset or from the sale of the asset itself, at a suitable
discount rate.
When the recoverable amount of a non-current asset
is
less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised
immediately in the income statement and the carrying amount
is reduced to its recoverable amount determined based on
value-in-use calculation or its sale’s value in an arm’s
length transaction, with reference to the most recent Group
business plan.
Provision for losses and contingent liabilities
The Group could be subject to legal and tax litigations arising
in the countries where it operates. Litigation is inevitably
subject to risk and uncertainties surrounding the events and
circumstances associated with the claims and associated
with local legislation and jurisdiction. In the normal course
of business, management requests advice from the Group
legal consultants and tax experts. The recognition of a provision
is based on management’s best estimate when an outf low
of resources is probable to settle the obligation and the amount
can be reliably estimated. In those circumstances where the
outf low of resources is possible or the amount of the obligation
cannot be reliably measured the contingent liabilities are
disclosed in the notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Incentive systems and variable remuneration
For the description of the determination of the fair value
of share-based incentive payments for the Moncler Group
management, please see paragraph 2.9.
1.3 Impact of climate change issues
The Group def ined a climate strategy aimed at reducing
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, with the intention of positively
contributing to the global goal of combating climate change,
in line with the requirements of the Paris Agreement on climate.
This strategy, integrated into the Group's business model,
includes medium and long-term objectives.
In particular, the Group committed to reducing absolute
CO2e emissions by 70% within Scope 1 and Scope 2 by 2030
(in line with the “1.5°C" ambition) and by 52% within Scope
3 (in line with the “Well-Below 2°C" ambition) per unit of product
sold compared to 2021.
Furthermore, Moncler Group committed to achieving net zero
emissions (Net Zero1) along the entire value chain by 2050.
These objectives have been formally approved by the Science
Based Targets initiative (SBTi)2 and deemed consistent with
the contribution required of companies to limit the maximum
increase in global temperature compared to pre-industrial levels.
The main actions undertaken to achieve these
objectives include:
•use of electricity from renewable sources (both purchased
and self-generated);
•implementation of energy ef f iciency activities
(Building Management System — BMS, lighting systems,
more ef f icient heating and cooling, improvement of building
thermal insulation, and promotion of environmental
standards for buildings);
•adoption of low-impact environmental vehicles in the
Group's car f leet;
•obtaining LEED certif ications for new stores3 and all
new corporate buildings.

Achieving Net Zero involves the overall
balance between greenhouse gas
GHG emissions produced and those
absorbed by ecosystems through
neutralisation mechanisms Specif ically
to contribute to Net Zero companies
must reduce emissions and neutralise
residual emissions
