SWOT Analysis STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES High technological level thanks to constant high investments to

develop technologies and innovative products; High entry barriers: in the foundation division, represented by a

solid track record, and in the drilling division, represented by its innovative hydraulic rigs;

Vertical integration among the various business divisions as competitive advantage;

High geographical diversification.

Currency risk: particularly in the drilling division, a strong and sudden euro/dollar exchange could negatively weigh upon the operating profitability.

Country risk: particularly in the drilling and foundation service divisions, the group mainly works in countries that are characterized by growing economies but also by strong instability.

High capital intensive business: because of the high level of production resources, two equipment divisions (Drillmec and Soilmec) are decidedly capital intensive.

Potential problems related to the growing Group’s size (management, technicians, etc).

OPPORTUNITIES THREATS Strong demand still expected for the coming years both in the

foundation sector and in the drilling sector. Cyclical businesses: the Group business areas are closely linked to

the trend in the construction and building sector and to the oil sector trend.

Very positive Q3 06 results The results posted a good performance compared to the same period of 2005, with double digit growth for both revenues and margins.

9M net revenues were up by 33.4% Y/Y to EUR 469m (vs. Akros estimates of EUR 466m). All the Group’s business areas showed good performance, but this strong growth is largely due to the equipment divisions, which were up by 54.5% Y/Y.

Operating leverage translated into much higher margins: 9M EBITDA was EUR 61.8m (+57.9% Y/Y), at 13.2% on net sales and EBIT was EUR 41.6m (+129.6% Y/Y) at 8.8% on net sales.

The growth continues…

Strong know-how and high reliability drive growth

Foundation division The foundation business continues to show significant growth rates even for the coming years particularly thanks to the heavy investments expected from the emerging countries, which are today benefiting from large cash flows deriving from oil drilling and raw material mining, and to important infrastructure construction works in industrialized countries.

Thanks to its track-record and reliability, the group is acquiring increasingly important new and ever larger orders in the Foundation sector (we remind investors of the last joint venture signed by Trevi and the US Kiewit Construction for the construction of the wall for the Transport Center of the World Trade Center and for three new towers which will be built on Ground Zero, total amount of USD 34m - Trevi 50% or USD 17m, which we believe is very positive from a strategic point of view as it will add to the Group’s already important track record in acquiring new orders in future projects in the US).

Based on the foregoing consideration, we believe that Trevi Group could increase its orders in the coming years, both in the foundation works and in foundation equipments.

Therefore, we increase our 2006e and 2007e Foundation division sales by +2.6% and +6%.

Drilling division In the drilling businesses, Trevi Group shows a strong increase in order backlog: in the drilling service, we remind investors of the significant contracts signed by the Petreven subsidiary with the primary oil companies Petrobras, Chevron-Texaco and Repsol in the last few years. In the drilling equipment, we highlight the important contracts acquired by the Drillmec subsidiary in Africa, the Persian Gulf, USA.

Following these initial agreements, the Group’s innovative hydraulic oil drilling equipment has received overwhelming approval. The company has also started a campaign to present this new technology to all the large oil companies in the world. This campaign has already drawn a great deal of interest, especially the news that Trevi, through its drilling equipment subsidiary Drillmec, has entered into an agreement with Al-Jumaa in Kuwait. This partnership is intended to develop the presence of the Group’s new technology in the drilling sector in Kuwait.

The above mentioned factors show that the oil market recognises the competitive advantage of the technological know-how Trevi Group can currently boast over its peers.

Therefore, based on the interest in this market and on oil rig demand, which continues to remain strong, we estimate that Drillmec, the drilling equipment division, will retain the same growth rates in 2007 as seen in 2006. As such, we increase our 2007e Drilling equipment division sales from EUR 144m to EUR 159.4m.

Our estimates do not factor in any considerably sized contracts given the low visibility and the highly uncertain timing of such deals. Therefore, if the group should acquire an order to substantially change our P&L estimates, we may have to revise our valuation upwards.

Indirect convertible bond to fuel business growth

In the light of the strong increase in the above mentioned order backlog, the BoD endorsed the issue of an indirect convertible bond with the exclusion of the option right and which is due on 30th November 2011. The capital increase will be realized by issuing up to 6,194,690 million new shares (9.68% of current shareholders’ capital) with a nominal value of EUR 0.5 each.

The conversion price has been fixed at EUR 11.30 per share (a premium of 30% on the official market price on 23rd November 2011).

The annual fixed coupon is 1.5%. The bond will be convertible as of the 41st day after the issue day.

This capital increase will finance further strong development in both business areas (Foundation and Drilling), which could require substantial investments.

In our opinion, this indirect convertible bond issue is positive, because it will allow Trevi to access the capital market at attractive conditions. We believe that these financial resources could be utilised to finance the new important orders to be acquired shortly.

Valuation Our valuation of Trevi Group is based on a DCF Model and takes a peer’s multiples comparison into account.

DCF Model In the light of our estimates outlined in the paragraph above, and based on our DCF model, we set a target price of EUR 10.30 per share, showing an upside of above 13.0% on the current share price.

The Wacc is determined by assuming a target capital structure with debt covering 25% of net capital employed. Beta is at 1.1, reflecting that there is a certain amount of penalisation on mid/small caps in light of their modest liquidity. Terminal growth, at 2.0%, looks appropriate to reflect the considerable potential growth rates both in the foundation sector and in the drilling sector.

Our assumptions are given in the following tables.

SOP based on a peers multiple comparison for each Group Division Our SOP valuation, based on a peers multiple comparison for each Group Division, shows an Enterprise Value of EUR 801m (a Fair Value of EUR 10.02 per share), calculated on the 2007e EV/EBITDA.

In particular, each division (Foundation Services, Foundation Rigs, Drilling Rigs, Drilling Services) is valuated through a specific group of peer multiples.

We did not apply any discount because: in the Foundation divisions, the company is one of the four world leaders and, in the Drilling divisions, the group shows sales and EBITDA growth rates higher than its competitors thank to its competitive advantage in technological know-how.

The peer analysis shows a lower value than the DCF Model, given that the EV/EBITDA ‘07e multiple does not factor in the drilling sector development which, based on our estimates, will increase from 38% on Group EBITDA in 2006e to 50% on Group EBITDA in 2010e.

Recommendation system

From the 18th October 2004, the Members of ESN use a New Recommendation System.

The new ESN Recommendation System is Absolute. It means that each stock is rated on the basis of a total return, measured by the upside potential (including dividends) over a 6 months time horizon.

The ESN spectrum of recommendations (or ratings) for each stock comprises 5 categories: Buy, Accumulate (or Add), Hold, Reduce and Sell (in short: B, A, H, R, S).

Meaning of each rating or recommendation:

Banca Akros Ratings Breakdown • Buy: the stock is expected to generate a total return of over 15% during the

next 6 months time horizon.

• Accumulate: the stock is expected to generate a total return of 5% to15%

during the next 6 months time horizon.

• Hold: the stock is expected to generate a total return of 0% to 5% during the

next 6 months time horizon

• Reduce: the stock is expected to generate a total return of 0 to -15% during the

next 6 months time horizon

• Sell: the stock is expected to generate a total return below -15% during the

next 6 months time horizon
