Piteco is Italy’s leading company in designing, developing and implementing software for treasury, finance and financial planning management.
Investment summary
Piteco SpA once again generated good revenue and EBITDA growth in H1, of 11% and 24%, respectively. FY20 had an excellent start, although the COVID-19 pandemic subsequently slowed down progress. While Piteco’s products can help steer financial and treasury decision-making at times of crisis, at the height of lockdown, the acquisition of new clients slowed. During H1 Piteco acquired EveryMake for an initial €0.55m in cash, which has been integrated into the Piteco SpA business. A new product in the data matching space is planned for launch in H2, and there will also be a major release of Piteco SpA’s existing software. Piteco continues to trade at a discount to its international software peers.

Industry outlook
