Latest financial results
Milan, May 14th, 2025 - Andrea Vismara, Chief Executive Officer at EQUITA, commented: “The first quarter of 2025 represented the best first quarter since IPO, with both Net Revenues and Net Profits recording double-digit growth year-on-year (+37% and +53% respectively). All business areas have contributed to this achievement, confirming EQUITA as the leading independent investment bank in Italy”.
“The significant progress recorded in the first quarter of 2025 is the result of the investments made and the initiatives launched in the last two years. These have led us to further diversify the offering dedicated to entrepreneurs, corporates, investors and institutions, and strengthen the team with the addition of new senior professionals with proven track record”.
The Board of Directors of EQUITA Group S.p.A. (the “Company” and, together with its subsidiaries, “EQUITA” or the “Group”) approved the additional financial information of the Group as of 31 March 2025.

Dividends
EQUITA benefits from a particular business model that invests in capital-light initiatives. This allows the Group to use the cash generated from net profits to finance distributions to shareholders, M&A transactions and investments in new initiatives aimed at accelerating organic growth, keeping at the same time strong financial soundness as demonstrated by the rock-solid capital ratios, well above minimum capital requirements.
Figures referred to total dividends and per share dividends include the two tranches of the 2024 dividend.
Historically, EQUITA has always distributed to shareholders 100% of net profits. Since 2017, following the admission to AIM Italia (today Euronext Growth Milan) and the translisting to Euronext STAR Milan in 2018, the management has decided to retain each year a portion of net profits, to pursue a more conservative approach aimed at promoting increasing dividends and finance potential accretive corporate finance transactions.
Investment Case
EQUITA is the leading independent investment bank in Italy and the go-to partner for investors, listed companies, corporates and financial institutions.
Over the years the Group has diversified significantly its revenue stream by growing in all areas of business, especially in the Investment Banking and Alternative Asset Management divisions.
This diversification has contributed to an increasingly resilient performance and confirmed the ability of EQUITA to consistently deliver net profits, also in particularly challenging periods of volatile markets.
