Dear Shareholders,
The 2024 Annual Report reflects, in a year marked by profound transformations and significant
challenges, your company’s ability not only to adapt to a constantly evolving economic landscape,
but also to translate such dynamics into strategic opportunities.
Over the year, doValue successfully executed two major transactions: the complete refinancing of
its capital structure and the acquisition of Gardant, a strategically significant and highly complex
transaction, expected to generate long-term economic benefits. It is particularly noteworthy that,
despite a still cautious sentiment towards the sector, both transactions were successfully completed
through access to capital markets and bank financing, reflecting the continued confidence doValue
enjoys amongst investors, financial institutions, and the banking system.
The year 2024 also marks the launch of the new business plan presented in March, entitled
“Unlocking New Frontiers”. The company’s entire management is deeply committed to the execution
of a strategy that clearly outlines a sustainable growth path, based on operational excellence and
organic development, with business diversification playing a key role in the plan. In this context,
the Gardant acquisition represents a strategic milestone perfectly in line with the outlined vision,
accelerating its execution and further strengthening doValue’s ability to generate long term value.
Over the past year, the company recorded an inflow of new assets under management for a total
Gross Book Value of €10 billion, significantly exceeding the €8 billion target outlined in the business
plan. This extraordinary result confirms the effectiveness of the Group’s strategy, based on a
customer-centred approach. Performance has been strong across all key markets, with significant
market share expansion and the further consolidation of the Group’s leadership position in Italy,
Greece and Cyprus.
As part of the diversification strategy outlined in the 2024-2026 Business Plan, your company has
resolutely pursued the expansion of its scope beyond the NPL segment. In 2024 approximately 35%
of new primary GBV inflows – excluding forward flows and secondary transactions – were generated
by non-NPL loans, confirming this ongoing strategic shift. This transformation is reflected in the
award of new UTP and Stage 2 mandates in Italy, as well as in the management of granular asset
classes and early arrears in Spain, strengthening the company’s presence in diversified segments.
Furthermore, the Group established a mortgage brokerage entity and a new advisory business in
Greece, both of which are already operational and generating business.
Finally, our alternative asset management project has gained significant momentum thanks to the
Gardant acquisition, which contributed to the Group an asset management company with €715
million AUM, creating a solid foundation for future growth, and expanding its capabilities in the
alternative asset management segment.
