Revenues from Cars and spare parts(7) were Euro 1,400 million (up 5.2% or 5.8% at constant currency(1)), thanks to a richer product and country mix as well as increased personalizations.
Sponsorship, commercial and brand(8) revenues reached Euro 174 million, up 20.4% or 20.9% at constant currency(1) mainly attributable to new sponsorships.
Currency - including translation and transaction impacts as well as foreign currency hedges - had a slightly negative net impact of Euro 8 million, mostly related to the US Dollar and Japanese Yen.

Q3 2024 Adjusted EBIT(1) was Euro 467 million, increased 10.3% versus the prior year and with an Adjusted EBIT(1) margin of 28.4%.
Volume was slightly negative (Euro 10 million), in line with the shipments decrease versus the prior year.
The Mix / price variance performance was positive (Euro 60 million), mainly reflecting the enrichment of the product mix, sustained by the Daytona SP3 and few sales of the 499P Modificata, increased personalizations and the positive country mix driven by Americas.
Industrial costs / research and development expenses decreased (Euro 11 million), primarily due to lower depreciation and amortization, in line with certain models phase out.
SG&A grew (Euro 23 million) mainly reflecting the continuous initiatives for software, digital infrastructure and organizational development, as well as brand investments.
Other changes were positive (Euro 14 million), mainly driven by the combined effect of new sponsorships and lower costs due to the revised Formula 1 in-season ranking assumptions.
Net financial charges for the quarter, were approximately Euro 1 million compared to net financial income of Euro 3 million of the prior year which also included the gain on bond cash tender realized in Q3 2023.
The tax rate(10) in the quarter was 19.5%, mainly reflecting the estimate of the benefit attributable to the Patent Box and tax incentives for eligible research and development costs and investments.
As a result, the Adjusted Net profit(1) for the quarter was Euro 375 million, up 13.0% versus the prior year, and the Adjusted diluted earnings per share(1) for the quarter reached Euro 2.08, compared to Euro 1.82 in Q3 2023.
Industrial free cash flow(1) for the quarter was strong at Euro 364 million, driven by the increased Adjusted EBITDA(1) and a positive change in working capital, provisions and other for Euro 12 million, partially offset by capital expenditures(11) of Euro 249 million and net cash interests and taxes for Euro 27 million.
Net Industrial Debt(1) as of September 30, 2024 was Euro 246 million, compared to a Euro 441 million as of June 30, 2024, also reflecting the share repurchases of Euro 147 million. As of September 30, 2024, total available liquidity was Euro 2,079 million (Euro 1,882 million as of June 30, 2024), including undrawn committed credit lines of Euro 550 million.
Even more confidence in the 2024 guidance, based on the following assumptions for the year:
- Positive product and country mix, along with stronger personalizations
- Racing activities, including new sponsorships, impacted by lower Formula 1 ranking in 2023 despite higher number of races in the 2024 calendar
- Lifestyle activities expected to increase top line contribution while investing to accelerate development
- Cost inflation to persist
- Continuous brand investments and higher racing expenses
- Robust Industrial free cash flow generation, partially offset by increased capital expenditures and higher tax payment
