LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Shareholders,

I am honored to have to opportunity to comment on the year just ended of DiaSorin, a company which is constantly evolving and which I am very proud of.

This pride is, above all, a consequence of the strategic choices that are the prerequisite for a solid and sustainable growth driving our Group towards new and important objectives we have set for the years to come. The objectives we are pursuing in all our testing technologies make us an ambitious company that is constantly oriented towards innovation, growth, dedication in providing concrete answers not only to laboratories, but also to clinicians and patients. A company which is aware of its role in innovation and of its ability to rapidly develop high-quality diagnostic solutions.

We are an increasingly international company composed of 3,400 people who employ, every day, their ingenuity, talent, skills and dedication to support projects and products that can help better understand the health conditions of millions of people every year around the globe.

In 2022, our research activities continued to work on ambitious projects able to deeply innovate the diagnostics market. Among these, I would definitely mention the MeMed test that help clinicians differentiate between bacterial and viral infections. This test does not only provide a diagnostic information, but also an indication of the best therapy for the patient, thus providing a valuable tool in the growing global threat posed by antimicrobial resistance.

As regards molecular diagnostics, we continued working to launch on the market the LIAISON® Plex, an innovative multiplexing instrument which allows the detection of a significant number of pathogens on a single sample, providing flexibility on the number of test results and thus lowering the testing cost for laboratories. Or the LIAISON® NES, our future Point-of-Care platform, addressing the growing diagnostic decentralization trend.

These projects, among many others, drove innovation in 2022 and laid the foundations for the future growth of our Group in the years to come.

All this would not be possible, however, without the people who make our company an excellence in the diagnostic world. Researchers, of course, but also all those who, in the different business areas, help DiaSorin grow and expand internationally, creating further conditions for sustainability of our business and our company.

Although Sustainability is a very widely used term in many contexts, it is a necessary condition for the business in which we operate. Our products, in fact, contribute to making health systems and health treatment increasingly sustainable, providing the necessary answers to clinicians about people's state of health and contributing to the improvement of diagnostic solutions for laboratories.

But sustainability, for us in DiaSorin, also means commitment to all the stakeholders who come into contact with us: customers, suppliers, investors, future talents who want to join our future challenges, the local communities where we operate; all this to make "our" DiaSorin even more an example of excellence, innovation, courage and vision, aware of the concrete and tangible impact that our company has on the lives of millions of people every day.

The Chairman
