the twelve months period ended March 31, 2017, the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 and for the twelve months period ended September 30, 2016 the financial information of (i) Istituto Centrale delle Banche Popolari
Italiane S.p.A. (ICBPI), (ii) Mercury UK HoldCo Ltd, (iii) Mercury Payment Services S.p.A. (“Mercury Payments Services”), (iv) Mercury Processing Services International d.o.o. (“Mercury Processing Services International”), (v) MPS
Acquiring Services and (vi) DB Cards Acquiring, as if the acquisition by the Group of Mercury Payment Services, Mercury Processing Services International, MPS Acquiring Services and DB Cards Acquiring had become effective on
April 1, 2016, January 1, 2016 and October 1, 2015 as applicable. We also present herein certain unaudited pro forma financial information for the Group in relation to its capital position to show for illustrative purposes the
effects of the acquisition of the Target, which was completed after the balance sheet date of June 30, 2017, on the consolidated regulatory capital ratios of the Group as of Jun-2017 (the “Unaudited Pro Forma Regulatory
Capital Information”). This information has not been audited, reviewed or compiled, and no procedures have been performed by any independent auditors with respect thereto. The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial information
and the Unaudited Pro Forma Regulatory Capital Information presented herein are for informational purposes only, and do not represent the results that would have been achieved had the acquisition of Mercury Payment
Services, Mercury Processing Services International, MPS Acquiring Services, DB Cards Acquiring and the Target been completed as of the dates or for the periods presented. The calculation of pro forma data is based on
management estimates, the unaudited financial statements and internal management accounts of Mercury Payment Services and Mercury Processing Services International, MPS Acquiring Services and DB Cards Acquiring and
selected unaudited financial information for the Target as of September 30, 2016. These numbers have not been audited and may not be derived from financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. Results indicated by
these pro forma measures may not be realized, and funds depicted by these measures may not be available for management’s discretionary use if such results are not realized. Expected cost savings and synergies presented
herein are based on assumptions about our ability to implement these measures in a timely fashion and within certain cost parameters. The ability of the Group to achieve these cost savings and synergies is dependent upon a
significant number of factors, some of which are out of our control. The Group may not be able to fully realize, or realize in the expected timeframe, the expected benefits from our cost measures. We present herein certain
financial measures that are not recognized by IFRS. Different companies and analysts may calculate these Non-IFRS measures differently, so making comparisons among companies on this basis should be done very carefully. These
Non-IFRS measures have limitations as analytical tools, are not measures of performance or financial condition under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or construed as substitutes for operating profit or net profit as
an indicator of our operations in accordance with IFRS. We believe the Non-IFRS measures presented herein are useful to investors because they can provide a useful additional basis for comparing the current performance and
condition of the underlying operations being evaluated by eliminating potential differences in results of operations and financial condition between periods or companies caused by factors such as depreciation and amortization
methods, historical cost and age of assets, financing and capital structures, taxation positions or regimes and temporary accounting or non-recurring effects.
No offer: This document, the information contained in it or any other information about the Group shall not constitute or form part of any legal agreement, and does not constitute or form part of, and should not be construed
as, an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to subscribe for, underwrite or otherwise acquire any securities of the Group or any subsidiary or affiliate, nor should it or any part of it form the basis of, or be relied on in
connection with, any contract to purchase or subscribe for any securities of the Group or any subsidiary or affiliate, nor shall it or any part of it form the basis of or be relied on in connection with any contract or commitment
whatsoever. The distribution of this document in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. Persons into whose possession this document comes are required to inform themselves about and to observe any such restrictions.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
During the course of Q2 2017, the Mercury Group has continued to deliver on its strategic plans, growing its core activities, implementing key
initiatives to accelerate performance and pursuing inorganic growth strategy, with the key objective to create the leading Italian payments company
and one of the largest payments businesses in Europe as underlined in the business plan of ICBPI approved in Feb-2017
– On 1-Jun-2017 CartaSi completed the acquisition of DB Cards Acquiring and on 30-Jun-2017 completed the acquisition of Monte Paschi di Siena
Acquiring (MPS Acquiring Services)
– On 3-Jul-2017 ICBPI completed the acquisition of Bassilichi Payments
– These transactions will improve ICBPI’s merchant proposition, strengthen its payments capabilities and provide significant synergy
opportunities
In H1 2017 the Mercury Group’s performance has been strong. Both Operating Revenue and EBITDA have increased organically compared to 2016
levels, mainly due to the significantly improved performance across ICBPI’s reporting segments on the back of higher business volumes
The unaudited consolidated Mercury UK Holdco income statement for H1 2017 (that include at ICBPI Group’s level one-off costs for the acquisitions,
but not yet including the contribution to P&L of MPS Acquiring Services and including only a one-month contribution of DB Cards Acquiring) showed:
– Operating Revenue of €445m, as a result of ICBPI’s Group operating revenue of €357m (+7.5% vs H1 2016) and Mercury Payments & Processing
combined operating revenue of €87m (+0.3% y-o-y)
– EBITDA at €178m, as a result of ICBPI’s Group EBITDA of €131m (+34.3% vs H1 2016) and Mercury Payments & Processing combined EBITDA of
€47m (+0.7% y-o-y)
– Net profit of €11m, impacted by €126m of gross non-recurring items for (i) HR restructuring costs (€81m), (ii) advisory costs for transformation
program (€22m), (iii) taxes on M&A transactions (€17m), (iv) investments in Atlante write-off (€3m) and (v) other one-off costs (€3m)
Mercury UK HoldCo CET1 ratio (that fully included effect of the acquisitions of DB Cards Acquiring and MPS Acquiring Services but not yet including the
impact of Bassilichi Payments acquisition) was equal to 21.6%1 as of 30-Jun-2017
On a pro-forma basis1, including the contribution to P&L of MPS Acquiring, Mercury Group’s financial performance showed:
– Pro-forma H1 2017 Operating Revenue of €484m, up 4.9% vs. H1 2016
– Pro-forma H1 2017 EBITDA of €200m, up 18.5% vs. H1 2016; EBITDA margin increased by 4.7p.p. to 41.2%
– LTM 30-Jun-2017 Adjusted Pro Forma EBITDA2 of €457m and LTM 30-Jun-2017 Adjusted Pro Forma Net Profit Available to Sponsors’
Holdco2 of €257m

Operating revenue increased YoY by €0.5m, or 0.7%, driven by the
increase in net fees and commissions increase, which was influenced

termination of the acquiring contract with Banca ITB by mutual
agreement (from 1.12.2016)
EBITDA recorded a decrease of €0.1m, or 0.2%, and a reduction in
EBITDA margin of 0.5p.p.
Net profit of €22m, including gross extraordinary/non recurring
costs2 of €8m
Mercury Processing Services International
Operating revenue decreased by €0.3m, or 1.6%, mainly due to less
business advisory services provided
EBITDA recorded an increase of €0.4m, or 11.7%, and an
improvement in EBITDA margin of 2.9p.p.
Net profit of €2.5m, increasing by €0.7m (or 36.0%) vs. H1 2016
