Milan. 14 February 2024 – The Board of Directors of Industrie De Nora S.p.A.

The final full-year financial results will be approved by the Board of Directors on March 18, 2024.
Paolo Dellachà, Chief Executive Officer of Industrie De Nora, commented:
"The positive results achieved in 2023, now preliminarily presented, with revenues growing by 4% at constant exchange rates and solid operating profitability, further confirm the strength and resilience of our business model, which combines technological innovation with sustainability. The growth of the Energy Transition business continues, with a 140% increase in revenues. In 2023 De Nora realized 1 GW of technologies dedicated to green hydrogen generation, more than tripling 2022 production. The Energy Transition division's backlog, which was recently enriched by a new order from thyssenkrupp nucera for a more than 700 MW project in Sweden, supports business growth expectations in the coming years”.
