MANAGEMENT REPORT

HISTORY AND STRATEGY OF JUVENTUS FOOTBALL CLUB S.P.A.

Juventus was founded in 1897 thanks to the idea of a group of young students at the Liceo D'Azeglio school in Turin.

After only a few years and the switch to the current black and white strip, Juventus won its first Italian championship

as early as 1905.

In the years that followed, Juventus rapidly rose to be a leading team in Italian and international football, becoming

the only club, together with AFC Ajax, to win all the most important international competitions.

In particular, since its foundation Juventus has won 25 Italian Championships, 2 Italian Super Cups, 2 Champions

Leagues, 2 Intercontinental Cups, 2 European Super Cups, 3 U.E.F.A. Cups and 1 Cup Winners’ Cup.

Since 1994, Juventus has gone from strength to strength not only on the field but also, in the wake of some

important regulatory changes and especially the abolition of the prohibition of profit-making for professional sports

clubs and the recognition of the subjective nature and football clubs' ownership of "television rights", has

gradually transformed itself from a sports club into a business. In particular, the sale of television rights has

enabled the Company to make substantial modifications to the composition of its revenue, exploiting the

economic potential related to the large audiences for football matches and its presence in the mass media.

In the last few years, Juventus has also continued to strengthen its First Team and enhanced its own brand,

developing, among other things, programmes and projects for auxiliary activities connected to its core business

with the aim of providing the Company with fixed assets appropriate to the running of its sports activities and as

promotion, advertising and commercial support from a perspective of establishing itself as an entertainment &

leisure group.

The Company's aim is, therefore, to increase and diversify its revenues and to boost its profitability while at the

same time making it less sensitive to sports results, pursuing strategies to ensure further strengthening in its core

business and the development of new auxiliary activities.

In particular, the Company intends to pursue the following closely related strategic objectives:

• The maintenance of a team of an excellent technical level in order to obtain victorious results on the field and, in

any case, significant successes in domestic and international competitions. To achieve this goal, the Company

intends to continue with the careful management of its team and to pay the maximum attention to the youth

sector with the constant inclusion of young football players;

• Further enhancement of its brand with a view to further developing commercial activities, also through the

expansion of its fans in countries that have shown recent interest in the world of football and the development

of new forms of partnership, especially with companies that own internationally-renowned brands;

• the design and implementation of revenue diversification projects (the Stadium and Mondo Juve projects),

through investments in auxiliary activities connected to its core business in the fields of entertainment and leisure,

thus making the most of the activity of the First Team.

10 Juventus Football Club Six-Monthly Report at 31 December 2001

On 12 April 2002 the official Juventus share price was Euro 3.43, a decrease of about 7.4% compared to the

value at listing on 20 December 2001 (Euro 3.7) essentially following the fall recorded at the end of the first day

of trading (-6.3%).

From 20 December 2001 to 12 April 2002, the Juventus share price has varied around an average of about Euro

3.44 without there being any particularly significant daily variations.

The average daily equity turnover in trading from 20 December to 12 April was approximately Euro 980,000:

the significant volumes recorded in the first few days after listing (7.3 million shares traded on 20 December

2001) were in fact followed by falling volumes (about 120,000 shares traded on average every day in the month

of March 2002).

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS IN THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 2001/2002

Transfer Campaign

From the financial point of view, changes in the playing squad, also taking into account termination of player

sharing, entailed a difference of Euro 45.6 million, determined by investments for Euro 208.3 million net of

disposals for Euro 157.3 million and the terminations of player sharing that determined revenues for Euro 5.4

million. The economic effect, including the terminations of player sharing, is positive for Euro 121.7 million.

On 27 July 2001, the controlling company IFI S.p.A. guaranteed the payment of the adverse balance stemming

from the domestic transfer campaign in the 2001/2002 season by pledging a third-party guarantee to F.I.G.C. -

LNP, as envisaged by the sports regulations in force, for a total sum of approximately Euro 104 million.

As regards the international transfers of footballers, and for which a system of compensation is not envisaged as

in the case of domestic transfers, the disposal of the following player registrations should be noted:

• the footballer Zinedine Zidane to Real Madrid Club de Futbol for a sum of approximately Euro 75 million to be

paid in four equal annual payments. The first instalment has already been received and the remaining ones (for

annual instalments, the first instalment of GBP 2 million has already been received; guarantees have been

issued for the remaining sums.

Season tickets

Season tickets sold for the 2001/2002 season amounted to 35,703 compared to 35,446 for the 2000/2001

season. The total net revenue, including auxiliary services, was Euro 6.9 million, an increase compared to the

approximately Euro 6.8 million of the previous season.

Relations with sponsor companies

The Official Sponsor Europa Tv S.p.A. has sub-licensed to Fastweb S.p.A. the sponsorship rights granted by

Juventus for the 2001/2002 football season.

In addition to the agreement with Europa TV S.p.A. as the official sponsor of the Team in the Serie A

Championship, a sponsorship contract has been signed for the U.E.F.A. Champions League and the Coppa Italia

with TU Mobile S.p.A.

For the 2001/2002 and 2002/2003 seasons, Lotto Sport Italia S.p.A. is the Technical Sponsor of Juventus.

On 27 September 2001 the contractual relations between Ciaoweb and Juventus were terminated by mutual

consent, in particular those concerning the contract as Institutional Sponsor and the Juvestore virtual shop, on

receipt of payment from Ciaoweb S.p.A. for a total sum of Euro 4.1 million.

On the same date, the Company went ahead with the sale to Ciaoholding N.V. of 339,560 Ciaoweb S.p.A. shares

at the nominal value of Euro 1 each, for a total sum of about Euro 488,000, for a profit of Euro 148,000.

As regards relations with Sportal Ltd., with whom during 2001 the Company had raised two objections concerning

respectively the management of the official site www.juventus.com and the contract as Official Sponsor for the

competitions organised by U.E.F.A., it should be remembered that on 30 August 2001 Sportal Ltd entered

insolvency proceedings at the High Court of London and that on 28 November 2001 the contract concerning the

management of the official site was terminated. The Company has fully written-off its credits towards Sportal Ltd.

as it did in the Financial Statements at 30 June 2001 for credits due at the time.

Nike contract

In late November, Juventus and Nike European Operations Netherlands B.V. ("Nike") reached an agreement for a

duration of twelve years that, with effect from 1 July 2003, envisages:

• Technical sponsorship by Nike;

• The exclusive right of Nike to use and sub-license to third parties the Juventus brand and other intellectual

property rights to produce, publicise and sell, worldwide and through all media, products and services (including

the replica version of the match kit used by the First Team as well as sports clothing and accessories).

On the basis of this contract, Nike will manage Juventus' entire licensing activities and will develop

Juventus-branded products and services, creating a network of traditional retailing, on-line and mail-order

operations.

Nike has the right to terminate the contract at the end of each three year period if the Nike Group were to find

itself in seriously adverse business conditions.

The minimum total sum guaranteed by the contract for the twelve years of the contract is about Euro 157.3

million. To these sums must be added the annual supplies of technical material from Nike to Juventus for a

wholesale value in the first contractual year of about Euro 2.3 million (the value of supplies is forecast to rise by

5% every three years).

Furthermore, Nike will pay Juventus the following annual royalties on licensing and retail operations:

• 10% on net revenues from sales of Juventus branded products exceeding Euro 22.7 million (a percentage

which rises to 12% and then 14% when sales of respectively Euro 28.4 and Euro 34.1 million have been

reached); and

• 50% of net profits deriving from the sale of Juventus branded services and from retail operations.

Finally, bonuses are envisaged in favour of Juventus when the First Team achieves certain pre-set national and

international sporting results.

Until 30 June 2003, and thus for the entire current season and the next season (2002-2003), Juventus will

continue collaboration with Lotto as technical sponsor and trademark licensee.

The question raised by AIM Management SA of Lucerne, which had demanded the payment of a considerable

sum in relation to the Nike contract, has been settled in a transaction that entailed the payment of Euro 0.3

million.

Dividends

The Shareholders' Meeting of 4 September 2001 voted, for the third consecutive financial year, the distribution of

a dividend for a total of Euro 1,123,219, equal to Euro 0.054 for each of the 20,800,358 shares of the nominal

value of Euro 0.50 then in circulation.

Stock Market Listing

The Italian Prospectus was deposited with CONSOB on 5 December 2001 following the approval by CONSOB

on 4 December 2001, published in note no. 1090901.

The Public Offering of sale and subscription was held from 10 to 14 December 2001 for the general public in the

framework of the Global Offering of Juventus Football Club S.p.A. shares. Against a Global Offering of 38,700,000

On this basis, 44,505,000 shares were assigned, of which 16,930,210 shares from the increase in capital of

Juventus Football Club S.p.A., 21,769,790 shares offered for sale by selling shareholders and 5,805,000 shares

from the over-allotment option. Shares were therefore assigned as follows: 26,458,500 shares in the Public

Football Club S.p.A. shares to the stock market starting on 20 December 2001 on the Mercato Telematico

Euro 62.6 million, gross of commissions and additional charges.

It should be noted that on 20 December 2001 (the first day of trading) the new Company By-Laws came into force

(post-listing By-Laws) approved by the EGM of 4 September 2001.

Campi di Vinovo

As specified in the contract stipulated in March 2001, on 13 July 2001 the Company acquired 96.62% of the

share capital (99.61% of the outstanding capital) of Campi di Vinovo S.p.A., the owner of an area of about

500,000 sq. m. situated in the municipalities of Vinovo and Nichelino.

The sum agreed was approximately Euro 17.4 million, Euro 6.4 million of which was paid in the course of 2001.

In the last quarter of 2001, the Municipalities of Vinovo and Nichelino approved new zoning and redevelopment

plans required for the development of the area, which envisages the creation of the Juventus training centre and

related activities in the fields of entertainment, leisure and commerce, enhanced by the constant presence of the

First Team and the Juventus brand. The projects have been presented to the Piedmont Region for examination

and decisions on matters within its jurisdiction.

Stadio delle Alpi

As indicated in the Financial Statements at 30 June 2001, the Executive of the Municipality of Torino voted on

31 July 2001 to assign the temporary use of the Stadio Delle Alpi until 31 December 2001 to Juventus Football

Club S.p.A. and Torino Calcio S.p.A. The sum to be paid by each of the two sports companies was set at about

Euro 0.5 million. The contract also specified that the companies pay the City of Torino a sum equal to 25% of the

cost of the maintenance work and upgrading to safety standards agreed by the parties. As agreed with the City

of Torino, given that the negotiations for the acquisition of the Stadio were not completed by 31 December 2001,

the contract will remain in force until 30 June 2002 and each of the two clubs will be held to pay a sum equal to

the one set for the period up to 31 December 2001 in addition to 25% of the value of any work done in the

second six months of the validity of the contract.

Negotiations continue between the Company and the City of Torino for the acquisition of the Stadio Delle Alpi.

F.I.F.A. Regulations

In a letter dated 27 June 2001 the F.I.G.C. - LNP issued F.I.F.A. circular no. 759 of 31 May 2001 summarising the

principles of the agreement of 5 March 2001 between the European Commission, F.I.F.A. and U.E.F.A. on the

international transfers of football players. On 5 July 2001 F.I.F.A. approved the regulations that put the above-mentioned

principles into practice.

The new F.I.F.A. regulations, which are not effective for contracts stipulated before 1 September 2001, unless the

parties involved agree otherwise, also provides for introduction by the national Federations of a system of

national transfers of football players in observance of the new F.I.F.A. principles.

The new system governing international transfers regulates, among other things, the transfer of football players

under the age of eighteen, the training of young players and provides for payment of a training compensation to

be shared between all clubs offering training to these football players. An agreement has also been made that

sports contracts must last a minimum of 1 year and a maximum of 5 years. The new system governing

international transfers also provides for a period of stability of sports contracts, from 3 to 2 years depending on

the football player's age, allowing the player to back out of the contract for sporting just cause, to be established

on a case-by-case basis at the end of the football season. The unilateral breach of the contract, at the end of the

period of stability, may only take place at the end of the football season.

With the introduction of the principles of the agreement of 5 March 2001, a stable environment will be created for

the training and education of young players. This will enable the promotion of new young talents and will ensure

that clubs investing in the training and education process are compensated for the activity performed.

Furthermore, the new rules will guarantee contractual stability, which is very important for the fairness of national

and international competitions.

All the contracts completed during the 2001/2002 summer transfer period with professional football players

belonging to the First Team were stipulated by 31 August 2001.

Sport results

As far as match results are concerned, the First Team qualified for the second round of the U.E.F.A. Champions

League. As highlighted in the significant events after the closure of the first six months of the 2001/2002 financial

year, however, the First Team failed to qualify for the quarter finals of the U.E.F.A. Champions League.

It should also be noted that during the Serie A Championship match Bologna-Juventus on 20 October 2001 the

football player Marcelo Salas was injured. The Company has informed the insurance companies Siat S.p.A., Toro

Assicurazioni S.p.A. and Lloyd's of this event in order to obtain the insurance payment related to the footballer's

injury.

The football player Marcelo Zalayeta rejoined the First Team in November.

Miscellaneous

It should be noted that Resolution no. 213/E of 19 December 2001 of the Agenzia delle Entrate specified that net

income from disposal of players' registrations rights are taxable for IRAP purposes. The Ministry's position is in

clear contrast with that of the Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio, which concluded that the income from

disposal of players' registration rights is not taxable, and with the specific order of the day of 19 December 2001

approved by the Chamber of Deputies urging the government to take all the steps necessary to ensure that the

income from disposal of players' registration rights is not subject to IRAP. Notwithstanding the clear contradiction

in the approach of the documents cited above, the Company believes that the amount of the tax provisions fund

is already adequate, with allocations made in the relevant years (1998/1999, 1999/2000 and 2000/2001 seasons)

for a sum equal to the IRAP due and the 25% minimum penalty due for a possible facilitated resolution, as well

as the IRAP due for the first six months of 2001/2002.

ANALYSIS OF THE SIX-MONTHLY RESULTS OF JUVENTUS FOOTBALLCLUB S.P.A.

The economic result for the first six months of 2001/2002 financial period was, as is usual, influenced by the

specific distribution of the economic elements over the whole financial year and cannot, therefore, be a basis for

forecasts referring to the entire period. In particular, it should be noted that in the period in question the income

from disposal of players' registration rights related to the July and August 2001 Transfer Campaign has been

recorded.

The first six months of 2001/2002 closed with a net profit of Euro 37.3 million, against the Euro 10.6 million of the

corresponding six months of the previous year. On the one hand, this result benefited from the significant

contribution from players' management (which was positive for Euro 87.4 million, a significant increase on the

positive balance of Euro 7.7 million of the first six months of 2000/2001), on the other, it shows the negative

impact deriving from the allocation of the extraordinary costs of listing (for a total of about Euro 5.9 million).

Furthermore, the loss of the second quarter of the 2001/2002 financial year was not balanced by the recording

of pre-paid taxes in that at the current state of events there was not sufficient information for registration. This

assessment will be made on closing the accounts at 30 June 2002.

Total revenue for the first six months of 2001/2002 came to Euro 84.8 million, an increase of 10.3% compared to

the Euro 76.9 million of the corresponding period of the previous period thanks to the increase in the income from

matches (from the Euro 5.3 million of the first six months of 2000/2001 to Euro 7.8 million) and, above all, to the

higher income from television, radio and telephone rights and revenues from the U.E.F.A. Champions League

16 Juventus Football Club Six-Monthly Report at 31 December 2001

(which were Euro 50.5 million, against the Euro 38.3 million of the first six months of 2000/2001), more than

compensating the lower revenue from sponsorship and commercial operations (Euro 20.3 million, against the

Euro 22.9 million of the first six months of 2000/2001) and the fall in other revenue (Euro 6.2 million, against about

Euro 10 million of the corresponding period of the previous year).

Match and broadcasting revenues and income from the U.E.F.A. Champions League also benefited from a

higher number of matches being played compared to the first six months of 2000/2001.

Sponsorship and commercial revenue suffered due to the termination by mutual consent of the relations between

Juventus and Ciaoweb S.p.A..

The payment for termination, of Euro 4.1 million, was recorded as other revenue and compensated in part the

insurance payments received by Juventus in the previous season following elimination in the first round of the

U.E.F.A. Champions League (a sum of about Euro 7.7 million).

The operating costs of the first six months of 2001/2002 came to a total of about Euro 87 million, an increase

compared to the Euro 65.6 million of the corresponding period, essentially because of the increase in expenditure

on personnel, which totalled Euro 62 million against the Euro 45.2 million of the first half of 2000/2001. This rise

was due to the strengthening of the First Team which in the coming seasons will again enable the Company

to maintain a level of technical excellence and the continuation of a management policy of bringing in young

players.

The Gross Operating Margin for the six months showed a loss of about Euro 2.1 million, against a profit of Euro

11.3 million for the first six months of 2000/2001.

The income before extraordinary income and taxes for the first six months of 2001/2002 was about Euro 78

million, a significant increase compared to the Euro 18.2 million of the corresponding period of the previous

year.

In the first six months of 2001/2002 the negative extraordinary income for Euro 5.4 million following the full

registration of stock market listing costs (for a total of Euro 5.9 million) was partly compensated for by lower

extraordinary revenue, including the capital gains deriving from the Ciaoholding N.V. sale of the 339,560 Ciaoweb

S.p.A. shares held.

The positive Net Income for the six months was Euro 37.3 million, against the Euro 10.6 million of the first six

months of 2000/2001.

As regards financial aspects and assets, it should be noted that:

• the net account value of players' registration rights at 31 December 2001 amounted to Euro 257 million, an

increase compared to 30 June 2001 (when it was Euro 116.6 million) following the net investments made in the

July-August 2001 Transfer Campaign;

• The positive net Financial Position at the end of December 2001 was Euro 70.4 million, an increase compared

to the positive result of Euro 67.6 million at the end of June 2001 thanks to the proceeds deriving from the

capital increase, the cash flow generated by operating activities (of + Euro123.4 million), partly offset by the net

investments made for a total of Euro 181.8 million and other minor changes.

• Shareholders' equity at 31 December 2001 was Euro 130.9 million, an increase compared to the Euro 32.5

million of 30 June 2001 thanks to the increase in capital achieved through the stock market listing (a total of

about Euro 62.6 million) and the net income for the six months, net of the dividends distributed.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Juventus Football Club S.p.A. system of corporate governance is in line with the recommendations of the

rules contained in the Code of Conduct prepared by the Corporate Governance Committee for listed companies,

promoted and adopted by Borsa Italiana. Below we indicate the key aspects of the overall framework of the

Corporate Governance of Juventus Football Club S.p.A.

Board of Directors

In accordance with Art. 15 of the By-laws, the Company Board of Directors meets, at least every three months,

whenever the Chairman and Vice Chairman deem it proper, and it must also meet when a written request is made

by at least three members of the Board or by a Chief Executive Officer or by two Statutory Auditors. The

following meetings of the Board of Directors have been held in the last twelve months: 28 June 2001, 7 July 2001,

19 July 2001, 14 August 2001, 4 September 2001, 12 November 2001, 13 February 2002 and 22 April 2002.

The Board of Directors plays a central role in the organisation of the company; as specified in Art. 17 of the

By-laws, it is vested with the broadest powers for the ordinary and extraordinary management of the Company,

with the power to take all the measures considered necessary and appropriate to achieve the company purpose,

save only such action as is reserved by law to the Shareholders' Meeting.

The Board of Directors exercises its powers in conformity with point 1.2 of the Code of Conduct. In particular, it:

• examines and approves the Company's strategic, commercial and financial plans;

• assigns and revokes the powers of Chief Executive Officers and defines their limits, the forms in which they

may be exercised and the regularity with which they must report to the Board on the work conducted

regarding the powers assigned to them, at least every three months as specified in the By-laws;

• after examination of the proposals of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee and after consulting the

Board of Statutory Auditors, decides on the remuneration of the chief executive officers and of those who occupy

particular positions, as well as the subdivision of the global remuneration for the individual members of the

Board of Directors, when this has not been decided by the Shareholders' Meeting;

• oversees the general management situation with particular attention to situations of conflict of interest, paying

particular attention to information received from the executive directors and the Audit Committee, as well as

regular comparison of effective results against forecasts;

• examines and approves operations of a significant economic, equity and financial impact (with particular

reference to operations with related parties) in as far as this is compatible with the rapid decision-making process

demanded by the "transfer campaign"; in any case, the Executive Directors and the General Manager act

within the framework of plans defined by the Board of Directors to which they report promptly about transfer

operations;

• verifies the adequacy of the general organisational and administrative structure of the company as prepared by

the Chief Executive Officers;

• reports to the shareholders at the OGM/EGM.

The Board of Directors may nominate one or more Chief Executive Officers, who may, as per Art. 21 of the

Page 20: JUVENTUS FOOTBALL CLUB - Home - Juventus.com · Analysis of the Six-Monthly Results of ... any case, significant ... • the footballer Zinedine Zidane to Real Madrid Club de Futbol

18 Juventus Football Club Six-Monthly Report at 31 December 2001

By-laws, sign on behalf of and represent the Company to exercise the powers granted to them, to execute

decisions made by the Board and in court.

Art. 18 of the By-laws states that the Board of Directors may delegate all or part of its powers, with related

powers of attorney, to an Executive Committee. In the event the Executive Committee is established, it may take

decisions with the affirmative vote of the absolute majority of those present; for the decisions to be valid, the

majority of the members of the Committee must be present.

The Board of Directors is constantly informed on a timely basis of new legislation and rules which relate to the

Company.

The Board of Directors in office (until the Meeting to approve the Financial Statements at 30 June 2003) is

composed of executive directors, namely Roberto Bettega (Vice-Chairman), Antonio Giraudo (Chief Executive

Officer) and Luciano Moggi (Director and General Manager), and of non-executive officers, namely Vittorio

Caissotti di Chiusano (Chairman), Giancarlo Cerutti, Virgilio Marrone and Claudio Saracco. The majority of the

Board of Directors is therefore composed of non-executive directors (without operational responsibilities and/or

management functions in the company), such as to guarantee, by number and authority, a decisive weight in the

assumption of decisions by the Board. The Company Board of Directors also includes a number of independent

directors. These directors, as recommended by the Code, do not have economic dealings with the Company, with

the executive directors or with the shareholder that controls the Company such as to condition the independence

of their judgement. Furthermore, they do not possess directly or indirectly shareholdings such as to allow them to

control the Company, nor are they members of shareholders' agreements for the control of the Company itself.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors, nominated in accordance with Art. 14 of the By-laws by the Board of

Directors when the Shareholders' Meeting has not already done so, convenes the Board of Directors at least once

every three months (Art. 15 of the By-laws) and co-ordinates its meetings, ensuring that the directors are

provided with timely and adequate information such as to enable the Board to take its decisions with the due

diligence. The Chairman of the Board of Directors holds no operational responsibilities and does not play a

managerial role in the company.

Art. 12 of the By-laws states that (i) the Shareholders' Meeting is chaired by the Chairman of the Board of

Directors or (ii) in his absence by the most senior in age Vice-Chairman present or, (iii) if absent, by another

person indicated by the Meeting. It is the task of the Chairman of the Meeting to verify the validity of the proxies

and in general the right to attend the Meeting and to ensure that the Meeting proceeds correctly. The resolutions

of the Meeting are reported in the form of minutes signed by the Chairman and the Notary Public or the Secretary.

Art. 15 of the By-laws also specifies the obligation for the Directors to whom powers have been delegated to

report at least every three months to the Board of Directors and to the Board of Statutory Auditors on the activity

conducted in exercising these powers, on the most significant operations conducted by the Company or by

subsidiary companies and on those transactions with potential conflict of interest.

Treatment of confidential information

On 13 February 2002 the Board of Directors approved a specific Procedure for the management and treatment

of confidential information, also containing procedures for external communication of documents and information

concerning the Company, with particular reference to price sensitive information.

The purpose of this Procedure is to maintain the confidentiality of certain information, ensuring at the same time

that information about the Company provided to the market is correct, complete, adequate and timely.

The Procedure vests the Chairman, the Vice Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer and the General Manager with

general responsibility for the management of confidential information. The task of communicating price-sensitive

information is performed through the body denominated Investor Relations, under the direct responsibility of the

Chief Executive Officer.

The Procedure itself also institutes specific procedures to be observed in the external communication of

price-sensitive documents and information and carefully regulates the ways in which company representatives

come into contact with the press and other mass media (i.e. with financial analysts and institutional investors).

Directors’ Remuneration and Appointments. The Remuneration and Appointments Committee

The Company adopts incentive mechanisms on the basis of which the remuneration of executive directors, the

General Manager and other employees includes a part that varies according to whether certain economic and/or

sporting results are achieved. In particular, a significant part of the remuneration of the Vice Chairman Roberto

Bettega, the Chief Executive Officer Antonio Giraudo and the Director and General Manager Luciano Moggi is

linked to the achievement of the individual objectives set (qualitative and quantitative) and to the results (both

economic and sporting) achieved by the Company.

With a vote on 4 September 2001, the Board of Directors nominated a Remuneration and Appointments

Committee to provide consultancy and proposals composed of the non-executive directors Vittorio Caissotti di

Chiusano, Giancarlo Cerutti and Virgilio Marrone. The role of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee is

to evaluate the remuneration levels of the Company's top management, career plans, and the plans for the

replacement of people who occupy key positions in the Company structure.

Internal Control and the Audit Committee

The Company's internal control system is structured so as to ensure correct information and adequate

governance of all activities and, in particular, control of the areas of greatest risk for the Company. To this end, the

Company has deployed a specific system entrusted with the mission of ascertaining the adequacy of the various

company processes in terms of their effectiveness, efficiency and economic return, in addition to guaranteeing the

reliability and correctness of accounts and ensuring observance of internal and external regulations and company

directives and guidelines designed to ensure honest and efficient management.

With a vote on 4 September 2001, the Board of Directors nominated an Audit Committee to provide consultancy

and proposals, as well as the control of internal (administrative and operational) procedures, composed of three

non-executive directors in the persons of Claudio Saracco (President of the Committee), Vittorio Caissotti di

Chiusano and Virgilio Marrone. The Audit Committee is entrusted with maintaining relations between the person

responsible for the internal control of the Company, the Board of Directors, the Board of Statutory Auditors and the

independent auditing company.

The Board of Directors of 4 September 2001 indicated Teresa Gastaldo, Administration and Human Resources

Manager, as the person responsible for internal control.

For the three year period of 2001/2002, 2002/2003 and 2003/2004, the Company has appointed

PricewaterhouseCoopers S.p.A. as independent auditors of the Financial Statements and for limited audits

of the Six-Monthly Reports and verification that the accounts are kept in conformity with legislative decree

no. 58/98.

Other Corporate Governance procedures and guidelines

In order to establish a constant and professional relationship with all shareholders, as well as with institutional

Page 22: JUVENTUS FOOTBALL CLUB - Home - Juventus.com · Analysis of the Six-Monthly Results of ... any case, significant ... • the footballer Zinedine Zidane to Real Madrid Club de Futbol

investors, as requested by the Code of Conduct and also to respond to the further demands to be satisfied for

admission to the STAR segment of the Mercato Telematico Azionario organised and managed by Borsa Italiana

S.p.a., the appointment has been made of a person responsible for the specific management of all activities

concerning relations with institutional investors and other shareholders in the person of Fabrizio Prete (Investor

Relations Manager), Chief Financial Officer.

The recommendation contained in the Code of Conduct to consider the Shareholders' Meeting as the key

moment for fruitful dialogue between the shareholders and the Board of Directors has been carefully assessed

and is fully shared by the Company which believes it appropriate - as well as ensuring the regular attendance of

its own directors at the meetings - to adopt specific measures intended to make the best possible use of the

meetings.

To this end, on 4 September 2001, the Shareholders' Meeting approved the "OGM/EGM Code" which regulates

the ordered and effective management of Company Meetings, also to encourage the participation of as many

shareholders as possible.

In line with Art.13 of the Code of Conduct, the Board of Statutory Auditors plays a fundamental function in the

Company of control and verification of the correct administration and accounting management of the Company,

of observance of the law and the articles of association, in complete autonomy and independence. Art. 22 of the

By-laws establishes that the Board of Statutory Auditors is made up of three acting Auditors and two alternate

Auditors.

The election of one Auditor and one Deputy Auditor is reserved for the minority. The Board of Statutory Auditors

is nominated on the basis of lists presented by the shareholders and deposited at the Company offices at least

tend days before the date set for the first calling of the meeting. The shareholders presenting such lists will be

asked to accompany the lists with full information concerning the personal and professional background of the

candidates.

22 Juventus Football Club Six-Monthly Report at 31 December 2001

As far as the investigation by the Turin Judicial Authority against the Chief Executive Officer and company physician

regarding the improper use of medicines by Juventus football players is concerned, following opposition by the

Prosecution, which presented a different interpretation of the legal procedure on the matter, the PI judge raised a

question of the constitutional legitimacy of the provision indicated by the Prosecution, with the consequent

transmission of the case to the Constitutional Court. At the hearing on 20 February 2001, the proposed

exception was declared to be inadmissible with the argument (a very new one) that the report requested was not

urgent.

Consequently, the Prosecution called for the indictment of the CEO and the company physician, and the first

hearing in the case before the monocratic court was held on 31 January 2002. After the settlement of procedural

questions, a number of investigative hearings were held in the course of February-April 2002, and these will

continue in the coming months.

In reference to the proceedings regarding the player Andreas Isaksson, on 31 October 2001 the "Players' Status

Committee" of F.I.F.A. ordered the Company to pay about Euro 0.8 million alleging that Juventus breached the

contract for the transfer of the player's registration rights from Trelleborgs FF to Juventus. The Company has

appealed against this decision. The F.I.F.A. appeal body has not yet announced its decision.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE CLOSURE OF THE FIRST MONTHSOF 2001/2002

Transfer Campaign

On 28 January 2002 an agreement was reached for the free temporary transfer of the registration rights of the

player Athirson Mazzolli e Oliveira to Clube de Regatas do Flamengo. The transfer was made effective as of 1

February 2002 and will expire on 30 June 2003. This agreement made it possible to resolve the dispute with the

Brazilian club that was pending with the relevant F.I.F.A. bodies without cost to the Company.

In addition, Juventus Football Club S.p.A. has made the definitive acquisition from Perugia A.C. S.p.A. of the

player Davide Baiocco for about Euro 7.2 million. At the same time, agreement was reached for the definitive

transfer to Perugia A.C. S.p.A. of the player Fabian O'Neill for about Euro 2.6 million. In the third quarter of this

financial year, this transfer will generate a loss from disposal of players' registration rights of about Euro 3.8 million,

gross of any additional expenses, and will, at the same time, allow savings in terms of amortisation for about Euro

1.3 million in the course of the second six months of the current financial year and of about Euro 2.5 million in

2002/2003.

Davide Baiocco signed a 5 season contract with Juventus Football Club S.p.A. expiring on 30 June 2006. At the same

time, Juventus Football Club S.p.A. loaned the player Davide Baiocco to Perugia A.C. S.p.A. until 30 June 2002.

Finally, Juventus Football Club S.p.A. terminated with mutual consent the contract with the player Juan Eduardo

Esnaider which would have expired on 30 June 2003 and sold the player Pierre Giorgio Regonesi. These

operations, gross of any additional costs, will generate an overall loss of about Euro 3.5 million and will, at the

same time, allow amortisation savings of about Euro 1.2 million in the course of the second six months of the

current financial year and of about Euro 2.3 million in 2002/2003.

Taking into account the economic and financial effects of the summer Transfer Campaign, the overall change in

team members in the 2001/2002 season, also considering the terminations of player sharing, entailed a negative

financial result of Euro 50.9 million, due to investments for Euro 216.2 million, net of disposals for Euro 159.9 mil-

lion and the terminations of player sharing that led to revenues of Euro 5.4 million. The positive economic effect,

including terminations of player sharing, was Euro 114.1 million.

Sporting results

As far as match results are concerned, the First Team has qualified for the final of the TIM Italian Cup but has

failed to pass the second round of the U.E.F.A. Champions League.

Campi di Vinovo

As envisaged in the contract stipulated on 19 March 2001 for the acquisition by Juventus Football Club S.p.A. of

96.62% of the share capital (99.61% of the outstanding capital) of Campi di Vinovo S.p.A., the second instalment

of about Euro 2.6 million has been paid; this sum is to be added to the about Euro 6.4 million paid in the course

of 2001. The outstanding balance of about Euro 8.4 million will be paid by 1 July 2002, the deadline by which,

under the responsibility and at the expense of the selling shareholders, the necessary measures must be taken

so that the structures, facilities and areas owned by Campi di Vinovo S.p.A. be completely freed of any liens,

encumbrances, easements and contracts of an obligatory nature.

In the period of January-March 2002 Juventus Football Club S.p.A. acquired a further 6,300 shares in Campi di

Vinovo S.p.A. Following these operations, the percentage of control of Juventus Football Club S.p.A. rose to

96.87% of the share capital of Campi di Vinovo S.p.A. (99.87% of the outstanding capital).

Official Internet Site

In March 2002, Juventus Football Club S.p.A. stipulated a contract with Sports.Com Italia S.r.l. for the creation,

production and management of the official Juventus Internet site (www.juventus.com), which is already fully operational.

Change in the Net Financial Position

The positive Net Financial Position at 31 March 2002 was Euro 25.5 million, a fall compared to Euro 70.4 million

at the end of December 2001, essentially due to seasonal causes.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

As is usual, the performance in the current football season will influence the result of the entire 2001/2002

financial year.

SITUATION AND PROGRESS OF THE SUBSIDIARY COMPANY CAMPIDI VINOVO S.P.A.

On 27 March 2002 the Board of Directors of the subsidiary company Campi di Vinovo S.p.A. approved the draft

Financial Statements at 31 December 2001. The net result for 2001 is about Euro 11,000, against about Euro

127,000 in the previous period.

As in the past, the company's operations refer to the rent of the sports facilities including the horse racing and

trotting courses. As specified in the contract with the former controlling shareholders, the final months of the

period saw the formalisation of the sale of the trotting course and the termination of the rent contract for the golf

company. The horse racing course will continue to be used until 30 June 2002 by Società Torinese Corse di

Cavalli S.r.l. to enable it to maintain the commitments made to UNIRE.

After this date, once horse racing has finished, the management of the company will be followed directly by

Juventus Football Club S.p.A. in order to begin the work planned for the "Mondo Juve" project.

1NOTES TO THE RECLASSIFIED BALANCE SHEET AND RECLASSIFIEDINCOME STATEMENT

The tables in the Balance Sheet and Income Statement have been reclassified following financial analysis criteria in order to

make them easier to read and to facilitate analysis of the Company's economic, asset and financial data. In particular, the

Income Statement has been drawn up following a scheme that distinguishes "operations excluding players' management" from

"players' management". The purpose of this scheme is to represent the profits and losses deriving from the disposal of

players' registration rights and from the termination of player sharing contracts ex art. 102 bis N.O.I.F., the costs and revenues

deriving respectively from the acquisitions and temporary disposals of players' registration rights as well as the costs related to

the amortisation of these players' registration rights. In addition, the contingent assets and liabilities, fees, commissions and

charges related to the stock market listing have been reclassified as extraordinary items in the Income Statement.

The reclassification criteria chosen make it possible, in any case, to compare each item with those envisaged by the regulations

in force for the annual accounts.

Calcio and the Commissione di Vigilanza per le Società di Calcio.

This Six-Monthly Report has not been drawn up as a consolidated report as the only company controlled by

Juventus Football Club S.p.A. (Campi di Vinovo S.p.A.) as specified in Art. 2359 of the Italian Civil Code is excluded

from consolidation through the application of clause 2, point a) of Art. 28 of legislative decree 127/91. The

consolidation of Campi di Vinovo S.p.A. is at the moment effectively irrelevant for the purposes of true and fair

representation of the financial and economic results of the controlling company Juventus Football Club S.p.A..

The financial statements (Balance Sheet and Income Statement) indicate the variations in the individual items. The

Notes to Six-Monthly Financial Statements are limited to comments on the main items. If not otherwise indicated,

the figures are given in thousands of euros.

The Appendices section, which is an integral part of the Notes to Six-Monthly Financial Statements, includes

tables containing both the obligatory information required by the regulations in force and those held useful for the

clarity and completeness of this Six-Monthly Report.

Significant events after the closure of the six months are commented in the "Management Report" to which

reference should be made.

EVALUATION CRITERIA AND ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

The Six-Monthly Report at 31 December 2001, concerning the first six months of the 2001/2002 financial year,

has been drawn up in observance of the criteria of evaluation, and the accounting principles adopted are

consistent with those adopted for the Financial Statements for the year closed at 30 June 2001. These criteria

conform to those laid down in Art. 2426 of the Italian Civil Code, to which explicit reference is made. Following

the introduction in January 2002 of the new accounting principle no. 30, the income/losses from disposals are

determined as the difference between the price agreed and the residual accounting value, inclusive of any

additional charges at the end of the quarter preceding that of disposal of players' registration rights and pro rata

temporis from the beginning of the financial year for other tangible and intangible assets.

In preparing the Six-Monthly Report, the provisions of the second paragraph of article 2423 of the Italian Civil

Code have been observed with respect to clarity and truthfulness, correct representation of the Company's

financial position, assets and economic performance for the period.

It should also be noted that in preparing this Six-Monthly Report, no derogation has been made as per the fourth

paragraph of article 2423 of the Italian Civil Code.

Considering the first paragraph of article 2423 ter of the Italian Civil Code and the particular activity of the Company,

in addition to the regulations referred to earlier, the rules indicated by the Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio, in the

documents dated October 1993 and November 1995 and by the Commissione di Vigilanza per le Società di Calcio,

were also observed, enabling us to interpret the laws from the technical point of view.

The evaluation criteria adopted are analysed further on in this document, indicating the reasons for their adoption.

INTANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS

Cost of players’ registration rights

Intangible fixed assets related to the cost of players' registration rights are entered at cost, inclusive of any

incidental costs, and the amounts are net of amortisation as calculated on a straight-line basis in relation to the

duration of the contracts stipulated with the individual football players.

The original amortisation plan is extended following renewal, if applicable, of the contract.

The above-mentioned players' registration rights are entered in the Financial Statements on the date on which the

contracts are ratified by the Lega Nazionale Professionisti for national transfers and on the date of the "transfer"

issued by the Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio for international transfers.

For football players registered as "giovani di serie" (youth players), costs are amortised on a straight-line basis over 5 years.

Other intangible fixed assets

All other intangible fixed assets are entered at cost and, where provided for, with the approval of the Board of

Statutory Auditors. The amounts are net of amortisation as calculated on a straight-line basis in relation to their

remaining useful life. To be more precise, the following fixed assets are amortised according to the following criteria:

royalties for industrial patents and use of intellectual property: trademarks over 10 years; software over 3 years;

the "Juventus.com" domain for the Internet site and the "Immagini Juventus" (Juventus Pictures) historical

archives over 5 years.

TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS

Tangible fixed assets are entered at purchase cost inclusive of incidental costs; the cost is adjusted by the

related depreciation accumulated.

In accordance with art. 10 of law no. 72 of 19 March 1983 no monetary or financial revaluation was carried out.

Depreciation entered in the Income Statement was calculated on a straight-line basis, reduced to 50% for assets

purchased during the period, on the basis of rates considered to be representative of their estimated useful

economic and technical life.

Purchases of assets with an individual value of less than Euro 516.46 were entered directly in the Income

Statement.

The annual depreciation rates are shown in the table below:

ASSETS RATE

Buildings 3.0%

Light constructions 10.0%

Fire-prevention, heating and electrical systems 10.0%

Ordinary office machinery and furniture 12.0%

Sanitary equipment 12.5%

Sport equipment 15.5%

Special technical systems 19.0%

Telephone switchboard 20.0%

Electronic office machines 20.0%

36 Juventus Football Club Six-Monthly Report at 31 December 2001

Ordinary maintenance and repair costs are entered in the Income Statement of the period in which they are

sustained while those of an incremental nature are capitalised.

INVESTMENTS

Players’ sharing costs ex art. 102 bis N.O.I.F.

These represent the value of the costs of 50% shareholdings in the football players' contracts held by the

companies which hold the players’ registration rights. Shareholdings in such rights are entered at the cost sustained.

Financial liabilities related to the disposal of players' sharing costs, entered at nominal value, are entered under

operating liabilities for player sharing.

Shareholdings in other companies

Shareholdings are evaluated at cost (inclusive of incidental costs) determined with the LIFO method. If at the date

of the closure of the period the value of a shareholding is considerably inferior to the value of the purchase cost

as defined previously, it is entered at this lesser value.

Should the reasons for the adjustment cease to exist during subsequent periods, the value of the shareholding is

restored within the limit of the purchase cost.

RECEIVABLES AND PAYABLES

Receivables are entered at their estimated realisable value, by creation of an allowance for bad debts, while

payables are entered at their nominal value.

Receivables and payables in foreign currencies for countries outside the euro monetary system are entered on the

basis of the exchange rate on the date on which the transactions were carried out. Any net losses on exchanges,

deriving from the adaptation of receivables and payables in foreign currencies to the average exchange rates of

the month of December, are set aside in a special currency risk fund.

Should, after the date of the operation from which receivables and payables originate, termed operations be carried

out in foreign currency to cover currency exchange risks, the difference between the exchange rate on the day of the

operation and that on the day of negotiation is deducted from or added, as necessary, to the Income Statement.

CURRENT FINANCIAL ASSETS

These are valued at purchase cost (inclusive of incidental costs) determined with the LIFO method, or at their sale

value if this is lower, as calculated according to market performance. Should the reasons for the adjustment cease

to exist, the values are restored within the limit of the purchase cost.

CASH AT BANK AND IN HAND

Cash at bank and in hand is entered at nominal value.

Cash at bank and in hand in foreign currency for countries outside the euro monetary system is aligned with the

exchange rates at the end of the period.

ACCRUED INCOME AND PREPAID EXPENSES

These are calculated according to the economic relevance and period of reference in accordance with the

principle of correlation of operating costs and income.

OTHER PROVISIONS FOR LIABILITIES AND EXPENSES

This item includes provisions set aside to cover charges and probable losses for which, at the end of the period,

the amount or date of occurrence cannot be determined. The accruals reflect the highest possible estimate on

the basis of the information available.

EMPLOYEES’ SEVERANCE INDEMNITY

This indemnity is created on the basis of the sums matured by each individual employee at the date of 31

December 2001, in compliance with the legislation and employment contracts in force. This liability is subject to

annual revaluation, performed using special indices provided for by regulations.

MEMORANDUM ACCOUNTS

These indicate commitments made, guarantees received and granted and third party assets held by the company

and are entered at nominal value. Contracts with deferred execution are entered at purchase and sale cost.

INCOME AND EXPENSES

These are entered in the Financial Statements according to the prudence and accruals-matching principles

indicating related accruals and deferrals.

Premiums related to the achievements of sporting results and due to football players, trainers and managers, as

with insurance payments for coverage of the same and premiums from sponsors, are entered in the Income

Statements for the period in question.

Financial incomes and expenses are entered in the relevant Income Statement. These include capital gains and/or

losses deriving from players' sharing costs ex art. 102 bis N.O.I.F., on the basis of the date on which the contract

is ratified by the Lega Nazionale Professionisti.

Capital gains and losses deriving from the disposal of players' registrations are classified as extraordinary incomes

and expenses, in accordance with the accounting recommendations of the Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio

and are entered on the basis of the date on which the contracts are ratified by the Lega Nazionale Professionisti

for national transfers, and on the date of the "transfer" issued by the Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio for

international transfers.

TAXES

Taxes for the period are determined on the basis of the existing tax legislation.

In the event of a temporary difference between the net profit and the taxable income for the calculation of IRPEG

and IRAP, the temporarily deferred or prepaid tax is calculated taking into account the effective annual rate of

taxation, rounded off to the unit, i.e. the one that it is presumed will be in force at the end of the period, as

recommended by accounting principle no. 30. In the event of expectation that the period will close balanced or

with a loss, the company will evaluate in each intermediate period the possibility of entering prepaid taxes if the

conditions stated in accounting principle no. 25 are present.

According to this principle, in particular, deferred or prepaid taxes are accounted, on the basis of the principle of

38 Juventus Football Club Six-Monthly Report at 31 December 2001

Amortisation for the period in question amounts to a total of Euro 34,521 thousand.

Costs of players' registration net of amortisation amounted to Euro 257,044 thousand at 31 December 2001,

against Euro 116,555 thousand at 30 June 2001. The increase in players' registration rights was due to the

significant investments made by the Company during the July-August 2001 Transfer Campaign to strengthen the

First Team squad.

The movements of intangible assets are listed in special appendices which are part of these notes to the Six-

Monthly Financial Statements.

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible assets increased by Euro 531 thousand, mainly following the research and design costs for the "Mondo

Juve" project, which were entered under fixed assets in progress and advance payments.

Depreciation for the period amounted to Euro 285 thousand (Euro 271 thousand in the same period of the previous

year) and is calculated on all depreciable assets applying the rates considered as representing their useful life.

The movements of tangible assets are listed in a special appendix which is part of the Notes to the Six-Monthly

Financial Statements.

Investments

Subsidiary companies

On 13 July 2001 the Company acquired 96.6% of the share capital (99.6% of the outstanding capital) of Campi

di Vinovo S.p.A. the owner of an area of circa 500,000 sq.m. located in the municipalities of Vinovo and Nichelino.

The sum agreed was approximately Euro 17,357 thousand, Euro 6,456 thousand of which already paid at 31

December 2001. At the beginning of January 2002 a further sum of about Euro 2,582 thousand was paid. The

difference of about Euro 8,319 thousand will be paid by 1 July 2002, the date by which the measures will have

to have been taken under the responsibility of and at the expense of the selling shareholders so that the facilities,

plants and areas owned by Campi di Vinovo S.p.A. be completely freed of any liens, encumbrances, easements

and contracts of an obligatory nature.

At 31 December 2001 the net shareholder equity of Campi di Vinovo S.p.A. was Euro 12,226 thousand. In the

2001 financial year, Campi di Vinovo S.p.A. made a net profit of about Euro 11 thousand, against a profit of Euro

127 thousand in the year closed at 31 December 2000.

It should also be noted that the balance sheet value of the shareholding in Campi di Vinovo S.p.A. is higher than

the corresponding share of net shareholders' equity as it appears in the last approved Financial Statements. In

observance of article 2426, number three, of the Italian Civil Code, taking into account the assets of the subsidiary

company, no alignment was made.

Players’ sharing costs ex art. 102 bis N.O.I.F.

Players' sharing costs ex art. 102 bis N.O.I.F. as at 31 December 2001 were Euro 4,420 thousand (Euro 14,377

thousand at 30 June 2001 and refer to players of the following teams:

40 Juventus Football Club Six-Monthly Report at 31 December 2001

It should be noted that all player sharing agreements were drawn up in observance of the federal regulations and

on the date on which the Board of Directors approved this Six-Monthly Report the amount was unvaried

compared to 31 December 2001, as no player sharing agreements were made during the January 2002 Transfer

Campaign.

Shareholdings in other companies

At 31 December 2001 these amounted to Euro 3 thousand (Euro 342 thousand at 30 June 2001).

They are represented by a shareholding in the "Consorzio Fiat Media Center" and a share in the "Consorzio

CONAI". The fall of about Euro 349 thousand is due to the sale in September 2001 of 339,560 Ciaoweb S.p.A.

shares, of the nominal value of Euro 1 each, to Ciaoholding N.V., for a sum of about Euro 488 thousand.

Other receivables

These amount to a total of Euro 33 thousand and are represented by tax receivables for advance payments of

IRPEF on Employees' Severance Indemnity for Euro 30 thousand and various cautionary deposits which, at 31

December 2001, came to Euro 3 thousand. The decrease of Euro 1,295 thousand (compared to Euro 1,328

thousand at 30 June 2001) is due mainly to the closure of the cautionary deposit to the shareholders of "Campi

di Vinovo S.p.A." following the purchase of "Campi di Vinovo S.p.A." in July 2001.

42 Juventus Football Club Six-Monthly Report at 31 December 2001

Of the total sum of Euro 127,576 thousand, Euro 66,642 thousand are collectable beyond the next financial year.

Receivables from the tax authorities for income taxes refer to IRPEG for tax withheld on bank interest income, to

IRPEG receivables transferred by the parent company IFI S.p.A., to IRPEG receivables for previous financial years

for which reimbursement and related interest has been requested, to tax credits for tax withheld on foreign

revenues and to prepaid taxes.

Receivables from the tax authorities for deferred taxes (for Euro 3,677 thousand) are as follows:

These receivables were determined by the difference between the net profit and the fiscal result for the period in

question. It should also be underlined that there is no right to demand the above sum from the tax authorities.

Provision for the period was due principally to deferred tax on part of the allowance for bad debts, to adjustment

of the actual IRPEG rate compared to the rate applied for provisions at 30 June 2001, for new public relations

costs and for directors' remuneration still to be paid.

The use of Euro 685 thousand is due to the fiscal deduction of the payment of remuneration to directors

which was not tax deductible in the previous financial year and the amortisation of players' registration rights.

Other receivables for Euro 26,137 thousand refer to:

The movement of the allowance for bad debts is as follows:

Accrued income is mainly composed of income for the right to use the image of a number of football players, for

commercial contracts and for revenue from the forward agreements in foreign currency. The increase in prepaid

expenses for Euro 885 thousand is due mainly to the deferral of rental charges, various commissions and the

purchase of material from Lotto Sport Italia S.p.A.

The conservative provision for the six months July-December 2001, for Euro 1,798 thousand, was made to take

into account the increase in receivables. The use is due to unrecoverable trade receivables.

Of the fund total of Euro 6,854 thousand, Euro 3,698 thousand refer to receivables from Sportal UK Ltd., a

company which on 30 August 2001 entered insolvency proceedings at the High Court of London. In the course

of the six months a sum of Euro 486 thousand was set aside, equal to the revenues matured from 1 July 2001

to 28 November 2001, the date of the termination of the management contract for the "Juventus.com" site. This

sum is added to the Euro 3,212 thousand set aside in the period closed at 30 June 2001. The receivables from

Sportal UK Ltd have thus been fully written off.

Assets other than fixed assets

These are composed of S.G.S.S. Quant Equity Fund/Sella Asset Management S.G.R.p.a. investment funds for

Euro 1,452 thousand (net of depreciation of Euro 536 thousand) and by an INA S.p.A. capitalisation policy for

Euro 1,020 thousand.

Cash at bank and in hand

This is made up of assets held at banks (deposited in time-deposit accounts and ordinary current accounts) for

a total of Euro 67,904 thousand at 31 December 2001.

It refers mainly to proceeds from the capital increase and advance revenue from commercial activity and television

rights.

Cash and other valuables amounted to Euro 23 thousand at 31 December 2001.

LIABILITIES

SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The analysis of the variations in the shareholders' equity accounts is presented in a special appendix which is an

integral part of the Notes to Six-Monthly Financial Statements.

Share Capital

The share capital is fully paid up and amounted as at 31 December 2001 to Euro 12,093,200, divided into

120,932,000 shares each with the nominal value of Euro 0.1 following the deliberation by the Extraordinary

Shareholders' Meeting on 4 September 2001 that approved the increase in company capital through the offering

The increase in provisions of Euro 34,464 thousand covers the provisions for IRPEG due to the deferment over a

number of years of the capital gains made through the disposal of players' registration rights.

in compliance with the recent amendment of article 54, paragraph 4 of DPR 917/86, are owned for a period of

no less than one year.

It should also be remembered that this regulation offers the possibility of deferring over a number of years the

capital gains made on each player's registration right that satisfies the tax regulations. In addition, the choice to

defer or not the capital gain made and the period of deferment (from two to five years according to the current

rules) can be reassessed at the end of the period, without significantly changing the taxes for the period as it

entails exclusively the reclassification from deferred taxes to current taxes.

50 Juventus Football Club Six-Monthly Report at 31 December 2001

The increase in ticket sales from First Team matches was due mainly to the higher number of Championship

Sponsorship and other revenues

Revenues from sponsorship contracts (Euro 9,186 thousand) refer to the sums paid by Official Sponsors and

the Technical Sponsor to acquire the right to display their own trademark on official strips and team uniforms.

Revenues from other sponsorship and other commercial contracts (Euro 9,160 thousand) refer to sums paid for

contracts with Institutional Sponsors and Official and Technical Suppliers, as well as with Commercial Partners

and Licensees of the Juventus trademarks.

The decrease in revenues generated by official and technical sponsorship and by other sponsorship derive

essentially from the classification in "Other revenues and income" of the sum mutually agreed for the termination

of the sponsorship contracts stipulated with Ciaoweb S.p.A..

Television revenues (Euro 34,360 thousand) regard earnings from the sale of radio broadcasting rights, as well

as television filming and broadcasting rights for football matches, excluding the U.E.F.A. Champions League.

Revenues from the U.E.F.A. Champions League (Euro 12,033 thousand) is related to sums paid by U.E.F.A. to

the Company and deriving from the negotiation and exploitation of commercial rights (television rights and use

of advertising space) in relation to matches in the U.E.F.A. Champions League.

Revenues from television and the U.E.F.A. Champions League amounted to a total of Euro 46,393 thousand, an

increase of Euro 10,173 thousand compared to the corresponding period of the previous year, largely due to the

higher number of official matches played in the period in question compared to the first six months of the

2000/2001 financial year.

Revenue from the "away team TV percentage" (Euro 1,756 thousand) represents 18% of encoded TV rights for

Championship matches, paid by the home teams. Correspondingly, the negative income items include the sum

paid to visiting teams for a total of Euro 5,031 thousand.

Publishing revenues (Euro 221 thousand) decreased compared to the figure at 31 December 2000 by Euro 397

thousand. This decrease is due to the fact that on 28 September 2001 this company "branch" was outsourced

to Cantelli Editore S.r.l., revenue for which is classified under "Other revenues and income".

Revenues from telephone rights (Euro 2,395 thousand) derive from the sale of the transmission of information

and news using SMS and WAP technologies, as well as the transmission of audiovisual images (known as

"clips") using GPRS and UMTS technologies of home matches played by the First Team.

2000) and regard revenues related to rights to use the image of football players.

Other revenues and income

For insurance indemnities, the decrease is due to the fact that the first six months of the 2000/2001 financial year

benefited from the payment of the indemnity on the "Loss of Revenue" policy following the failure to qualify for the

second round of the U.E.F.A. Champions League for Euro 7,747 thousand. The increase in casual profits is due

largely to the interest received from U.E.F.A. on the VAT reimbursement requested from the Italian tax authorities

for U.E.F.A. Champions League revenues for the 1995/1996 season.

The "other income" item also includes the sum regarding the mutually agreed termination of the sponsorship

contract with Ciaoweb S.p.A. (Euro 4,132 thousand).

matches and to the higher number of Championship matches played in the six months of the 2001/2002 season

Amortisation of intangible fixed assets

The criteria used to calculate the amortisation of players' registration rights is illustrated in the comment on the

item in the Balance Sheet.

Accruals for risks

Financial income and expenses

Income from shareholdings

Income from shareholdings in other companies came to Euro 148 thousand following the receipt of Euro 488

thousand from the sale of 339,560 shares in Ciaoweb S.p.A. to Ciaoholding N.V., whose balance sheet value was

Euro 340 thousand.

Other financial income

This is made up of the following items:

a) Receivables recorded as fixed assets.

These receivables represent the revaluation of payments to the tax authorities as advance payments of employees'

severance payments.

c) Income from securities recorded as current financial assets.

This amounts to Euro 10 thousand and regards the minimum return on the INA S.p.A. policy in which part of the

liquidity has been invested.

d) Other income, divided as follows:

The amount of Euro 4 thousand is composed of income from forward currency agreements. The decrease (of

Euro 776 thousand) compared to the same six months of the previous period is due mainly to income (for Euro

689 thousand) from repurchase agreements for the temporary use of liquidity entered for the period 1 July - 31

December 2000.

The income from players' sharing ex art. 102 N.O.I.F. refers to the following players:

In the extraordinary income, the sum of Euro 289 thousand has been used to cover the costs of technical and

sports training in the youth sector, as provided for in article 25 of the By-laws.

Extraordinary expenses

These amount to Euro 34 thousand and refer to losses on the disposal of football players' registration rights and

the non-renewal of the annual tie in the youth sector for Euro 28 thousand and the capital losses deriving from

the sale of other assets for Euro 6 thousand.

Income taxes

Income taxes for the period amount to Euro 35,348 thousand and include:

Current taxes

The sum of Euro 965 thousand refers to IRAP.

Deferred taxes

These amount to Euro 34,383 thousand and are composed of:

• Euro 685 thousand for use of deferred taxes created during the previous financial year (Euro 640 thousand for

IRPEG and Euro 45 thousand for IRAP);

• Euro 34,464 thousand for deferred IRPEG taxes due for the period;

• Euro 766 thousand for deferred taxes due set aside during the period (Euro 760 thousand for IRPEG and Euro

capital gains made on the disposal of players' registration rights.

This possibility, for players' registration rights owned for a period of no less than one year, was recently introduced

by Law 28/12/2001 no. 448, which amended article 54, paragraph 4 of DPR 917/86; it is applied for the first time

on capital gains recorded during the tax period as at 31/12/2001.
