                                              After a good start to the year, Lalique Group’s activities across segments
                                          1   and regions negatively impacted by Covid-19 and lockdown measures

                                                  Significant reduction in retail and wholesale sales particularly due to
                                              2   temporary closure of points of sale, in most countries from mid-March
                                                  to end-May

                                              3     Decline in sales was partly offset by cost-saving measures

                                                   Improving sales trends in all segments since mid-May, although global
                                              4    economic downturn is continuing to impact the business

                                          5   For full-year 2020, Lalique Group expects less pronounced decline in sales
                                              than in the first-half, provided Covid-19 pandemic does not intensify again

• Continued disciplined cost management, such as:
 − Prioritization of selected projects, product developments and launches, taking account of
   regional Covid-19 situation and economic conditions

• Protecting the health of employees, customers and partners remains a priority
• Ongoing focus on managing business amid regional Covid-19 developments
  and related economic downturn
• Continued strict cost management, taking account of sales developments and
  business environment
• Planned restart of preparations for selected projects and postponed product
  launches, including
  − Rebranding of The Glenturret distillery, combined with launch of new whisky selection,
    now planned for Q4 2020
  − Launch of first Brioni perfume line now planned for spring 2021
  − Establishment of a joint venture for perfume distribution in the Middle East region to
    replace former contractual distribution partner

Financial outlook

Barring negative development of Covid-19 virus or other unforeseen events:
• FY 2020       Less pronounced sales decline than in H1 2020
• FY 2021       Sales growth in the low double-digit percentage range compared to 2020 levels

As previously announced, mid-term targets communicated with 2018 results (mid-single-digit
revenue growth in local currencies, gradual increase in EBIT margin to 9-11%) will be delayed.
Lalique Group will provide further update with full-year 2020 results

Summary

• H1 2020 business activities and financial performance were heavily impacted by
  Covid-19 pandemic

• Decline in sales was partly offset by significant cost-saving measures

• Given improving sales trends in all segments since mid-May, less pronounced sales
  gap expected for full-year 2020 than in H1 2020

• Liquidity and capital positions remain solid (equity ratio above 50%)

• Lalique Group to resume work on selected projects and product launches

• No fundamental change in long-term Group business strategy
