Alberto Franchi Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company commented: "The results achieved in the first half of 2022 are really impressive for our Company and indicate promising performances also for the end of the year. After closing 2021 reaching the record level of turnover, this year we are confirming a growth trend well above 20%. I'm particularly proud of how Franchi Umberto Marmi is performing on markets, confirming that the positioning strategy on luxury products of Carrara marble is increasingly successful year after year. Carrara marble has become a symbol of excellence in the world. All the iconic construction projects designed by "archistars" around the world use our marble thanks to its qualities, such as beauty, naturalness and sustainability, brightness and exclusivity. In a period of great changes like the one we are currently experiencing, in which sensitivity to new values such as environmental sustainability are becoming increasingly central, marble is gaining market share because it stands out for its significant benefits related to the limited use of chemicals and low energy consumption compared to other building materials. Furthermore, at this moment in history when the supply of raw material has become a key factor to success, it is important to point out that Franchi Umberto Marmi has the materials coming from its
