Torino, November 10, 2017 - The Board of Directors of Fidia S.p.A., a leading Group in numerical control devices and integrated systems technologies for the calculation, scanning and cutting of complex shapes and listed on the Star (MTA) segment of the Italian Stock Exchange, has examined and approved today the quarterly report as at September 30, 2017.

In the first nine months 2017 Fidia Group has reported Net Revenues for 28,8 million euros compared to the 37,1 million euros in the same period of 2016. Sales remained on a very satisfying level, and overall in the first nine months of the year the order acquisition has been decisively higher than the same period of last year.

Machine deliveries has been below expectations, but the production planning suggests a strong increase in the last quarter.

"As at September 30 we register a decrease in the revenues compared to the same period of last year, even though the order acquisition (32 million euros) is much higher than 3rdquarter 2016" saysGiuseppe Morfino, Founder, President and CEO of Fidia " and we will be able to see the effects already in the next quarters.

The reason for such a decrease has to be found in the transfer of the production activities in the new Forlì plant, which we believe is now completed. Together with the full new production capacity, this allows us to predict a significant improvement in the economic results of the fiscal year.

We continue to make investments in R&D, in order to keep strengthen our presence in the growing business sectors. We are realizing organizational actions and strengthening strategic departments, in order to reach the growth that will allow us to catch future opportunities".

The Net Financial Position of the Group as at September 30, 2017 is a debit by 10,9 million euros (compared to a negative balance of 7,4 million euro as at 31.12.2016), also due to the major
