Over the past year we have also further strengthened our positioning both on the European and North American markets, without however neglecting the others, including the emerging ones. Furthermore, starting this year, we will be even more present on the veterinary products market thanks to a series of dedicated investments that will allow us to have strong growth in this segment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If we analyze the last four years, FIS records a double CAGR growth compared to the CDMO sector average, testifying to how the management and the entire organization are facing this historic moment through the main and different guidelines that guide the strategic plan: increase in production capacity, safety, quality, sustainability and digitization.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-72034 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Manurl-Barreca.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"291\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Manurl-Barreca.png 396w, https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Manurl-Barreca-275x300.png 275w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 291px) 100vw, 291px\" \/>Manuel Barreca, Chief Financial Officer of FIS \u2013 Fabbrica Italiana Sintetici SpA, added: \u201cThe economic and financial results achieved in 2022 testify to the resilience and solidity of the company in another year characterized by macroeconomic turbulence and during which, in the face of an easing of restrictions related to the pandemic, the costs and business continuity of many production activities were severely tested by the consequences of the conflict in Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In relation to a top line growth of 19%, reported EBITDA shows an increase of approximately 16%, while adjusted EBITDA records an increase of almost 19%. This result was also achieved thanks to the company&#039;s ability to transfer a significant part of the higher costs externally. The issue of a high yield sustainability-linked bond in February has also allowed us to concentrate financial resources on sustainable growth of the business, which also continues in the first quarter of 2023, in which the main economic and financial KPIs are further improving compared to the first quarter of 2022.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Received in the editorial staff on 6 June 2023<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comunicato stampa F.I.S. \u2013 FABBRICA ITALIANA SINTETICI: ricavi in crescita del 20% nel 2022 a 672,5 milioni di euro con un ebitda proforma adjusted in aumento del 20% Il trend di crescita si conferma anche nel primo trimestre 2023 chiuso con ricavi pari a 153 milioni di euro in aumento del 31% rispetto al primo &hellip;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":72039,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[227],"class_list":["post-72032","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-notizie","tag-comunicato"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72032","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=72032"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72032\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":72043,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72032\/revisions\/72043"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/72039"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=72032"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=72032"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=72032"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
