From Monday 9 July, Annalisa Monfreda, editor of the weeklies Donna Moderna and Starbene, will take on also the role of editor of Tustyle.

At the same time, Paola Salvatore, the current deputy editor of Tustyle, will expand her responsibilities following her appointment as fashion editor of Donna Moderna and Starbene.

This new organisational structure will give Tustyle, Donna Moderna and Starbene an innovative, cross-over position: on the one hand thanks to specific editorial skills, the fashion content offer for readers of the three weeklies will be enriched, while, on the other, it will be easier to enhance the relationship with interlocutors in the mass market advertising sector.

– the purchase and disposal of treasury shares for a maximum amount of up to 0.472% of the share capital, which is intended to provide the Company, in the three-year period, with no. 1,236,065 shares needed to meet the obligations under the “2018-2020 Performance Share Plan” approved by the Meeting;

– the continuation of the buyback plan – to service the “2017-2019 Performance Share Plan” – launched on 26 June 2017 in the manners and within the time limits of the relating Regulation.

Pursuant to the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052, details of the treasury share buyback plan are shown below.

• Purpose of the plan

The purpose of the plan is the buyback of Arnoldo Mondadori Editore S.p.A. treasury shares to service the “2018-2020 Performance Share Plan” approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting held on 24 April 2018, and the “2017-2019 Performance Share Plan”.

Buybacks will be made at a minimum unit price not lower than the official Stock Exchange price on the day before the purchase transaction, reduced by 20%, and at a maximum unit price not higher than the official Stock Exchange price on the day before the purchase transaction, increased by 10%. The definition of volumes and unit purchase prices will be made in accordance with the conditions set out in art. 3 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052; specifically, no shares will be purchased at a price higher than the higher between the price of the last independent trade and the price of the highest current independent bid on the trading venue where the purchase is carried out.

• Buyback procedures

The treasury share buyback plan will be coordinated by an authorized intermediary who will make the purchases independently, with no influence from Arnoldo Mondadori Editore S.p.A. as far as the time of purchase is concerned. Buybacks will be made pursuant to the combined provisions of art. 132 of Legislative Decree no. 58/1998 and of art. 5 of Regulation (EU) 596/2014, art. 144-bis of the Issuer Regulation, and the EU and national legislation on market abuse (including the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052), in accordance with the resolutions of the above Shareholders’ Meeting of 24 April 2018, in the terms previously disclosed to the market and in accordance with applicable law.

We are very proud that Ermenegildo Zegna chose Palazzo Mondadori to present its men’s S/S 2019 collection that opened Milan’s fashion week on Friday 15 June.

The models that paraded on the mirrored catwalk across the water in front of our headquarters in Segrate, a building designed by Oscar Niemeyer, seemed almost floating.

Always looking for symbolic places to show his proposals, this time the artistic director of Zegna, Alessandro Sartori, chose a location that is not only an ideal background, but fully represents the spirit of his creations: “the architecture of this wonderful place is perfectly in line with the challenge at the base of this collection.

The title – “Weightlessness” – fits perfectly into the building – monumental and evanescent at the same time – that Giorgio Mondadori commissioned in 1968 from the Brazilian architect, who for the Group’s new headquarters thought of a sort of “advertising architecture”, a building that did not need signs to imprint itself in memory.

The Board of Directors of Arnoldo Mondadori Editore S.p.A. met today and resolved not to accept the binding offers received from European Network for the acquisition of the Tustyle and Confidenze magazines and reviewed last 15 May.

Thanks to the Group journalists’ awareness and willingness to share a common goal, the Company has identified a new organizational and cost management structure aimed at achieving improvement targets for the two magazines.

Through an ongoing and open dialogue with the trade unions, an agreement has been reached on a reduction of the remuneration package for Tustyle and Confidenze journalists from 1 July 2018, consistent with the structural decline of the market, and on the application of a solidarity contract for journalists from the other publications in the Magazines Italy area, in force until 31 December 2018.

In line with the outlined strategies and business goals set – focus on brands with multi-channel development potential – the Company and the trade unions have underwritten their commitment to make the cost structure and the organization of the work of Magazines Italy consistent with market trends by the end of the year, in order to safeguard sustainability.
