[6-K] NATUZZI S P A Current Report (Foreign Issuer)
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Natuzzi S.p.A. reported third-quarter 2025 revenue of €74.4 million, slightly below €75.0 million a year earlier, but narrowed its operating loss to €1.7 million from €3.8 million. Gross margin improved to 36.0% of revenue versus 31.8%, helped by a richer product mix, price-list adjustments and savings from rightsizing Chinese operations, while net finance costs fell to €2.4 million. The loss for the period was €5.1 million, compared with €7.4 million in 3Q 2024.
For the first nine months of 2025, revenue was €230.7 million, down from €243.9 million, and the loss widened to €15.1 million from €11.5 million. Cash stood at €18.1 million as of September 30, 2025, down from €20.3 million at year-end 2024, and the net financial position before lease liabilities deteriorated to (€32.2) million from (€21.7) million. Weak store traffic and written orders, along with U.S. trade duties, continued to weigh on demand.
The quarterly loss reduced share capital by more than one-third, triggering Italian Article 2446 provisions and a shareholders’ meeting to adopt nominal share-capital reduction measures, which the company describes as an accounting adjustment. Management is defining a restructuring plan focused on cutting fixed costs, making production more flexible, selling non-strategic Italian assets and outsourcing selected activities, while continuing the search for a new CEO.

Insights
Natuzzi improves margins and narrows quarterly loss, but deep capital erosion, higher net debt and weak demand keep the profile challenging.
Natuzzi delivered 3Q 2025 revenue of
However, over the first nine months of
The loss reduced share capital by more than one‑third, activating Italian Civil Code Article 2446 and prompting a shareholders’ meeting on nominal capital reduction measures, which the company characterizes as an accounting adjustment while stating it remains compliant with listing requirements. Management is defining a restructuring plan centered on significant fixed‑cost cuts, more flexible production capacity, additional Italian asset disposals and outsourcing, and has a binding offer for one non‑strategic asset. Demand remains soft, with store traffic and written orders below expectations and U.S. trade duties adding pressure, so execution of the restructuring and the upcoming shareholder decisions will be important to how the business stabilizes.

Natuzzi Announces Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2025
3Q 2025: Highlights
*****
Santeramo in Colle (BA), December 16, 2025 – Natuzzi S.p.A. (NYSE: NTZ) (“we”, “Natuzzi” or the “Company” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”), one of the most renowned brands in the production and distribution of design and luxury furniture, today reports its unaudited financial information for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Pasquale Natuzzi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer ad interim of the Group, commented: “The business environment remains highly challenging, marked by persistent geopolitical uncertainty and macroeconomic headwinds that continued to discourage consumer demand and, consequently, sales.
On the other hand, I should emphasize the improvement of 4.1% in the gross margin, exceeding the levels recorded in the first two quarters of the year, mainly due to a sales mix with better margins and savings from the rightsizing of our Chinese operations. Gross margin expansion, however, remains limited by higher industrial labor costs.
2025 Third Quarter Results - page 1
However, the current level of gross result does not allow for an efficient absorption of selling and administrative expenses. While salaries and transportation costs overall decreased in the period, we are aware that they are still too high compared to the size of revenue. Consequently, the management’s challenge is to increase sales and optimize the costs structure at Group level.
Fully aware of these challenges, management is advancing its discussions with the Company’s Board of Directors and Italian governmental institutions to address Company-specific issues and aimed at restoring efficiency and profitability across the Group. We are currently defining the details of a restructuring plan, whose preliminary guidelines include a significant reduction in fixed costs, a more flexible production capacity, the divesting of certain non-strategic Italian assets, and the outsourcing of selected low value-added activities. In this regard, management has recently received a binding offer for the sale of one of its non-strategic assets.
In parallel, we continue to invest in product innovation, design and marketing to enhance customer experience and drive new business opportunities, including through the Trade & Contract Division. The Company remains firmly committed to developing new projects and collections and engaging in promotional events—including international trade fairs and design shows, Natuzzi Congresses and targeted initiatives with real estate developers and designers—to consolidate the Natuzzi brand’s positioning and support commercial performance.
Finally, the search for a new CEO is progressing. We are carefully assessing a shortlist of candidates capable of leading the Company through its restructuring phase with the objective of working towards long-term sustainability. We will inform the market in a timely manner should any material developments arise.”
**********
Call of a shareholders’ meeting to adopt appropriate measures pursuant to art. 2446 of the Italian civil code.
Following the approval of the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the first nine months and third quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Board of Directors has verified that the Company recorded a loss for the quarter of €5.1 million, resulting in a reduction of the share capital by more than one-third, thereby triggering the obligations provided under Article 2446 of the Italian Civil Code.
Article 2446 of the Italian Civil Code - applicable to Italian joint-stock companies (società per azioni) - provides for the nominal reduction of the share capital to reflect the recorded losses
2025 Third Quarter Results - page 2
and requires the Board of Directors to promptly convene a Shareholders’ Meeting to adopt appropriate measures.
Such a share capital reduction is essentially an accounting adjustment that aligns the nominal value of the share capital with its actual current value. As of the date of this press release, the Company remains compliant with all listing requirements. The Company continues to operate normally and the reduction in share capital is not expected to prevent the Company from continuing to strive to achieve the Company’s goals as well as to pursue the implementation of its restructuring plan.
In compliance with these provisions, the Board of Directors resolved to convene the Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of the Company in order to consider and vote upon the measures pursuant to Article 2446, paragraph 1, of the Italian Civil Code and any related and consequent resolutions.
The documentation required by law, including the Board’s report on the Company’s financial position and the observations of the Board of Statutory Auditors, will be made available at the Company’s registered office at least eight days prior to the meeting, in accordance with applicable provisions.

2025 - THIRD QUARTER
CONSOLIDATED REVENUE
Consolidated revenue for 3Q 2025 amounted to €74.4 million, compared to €75.0 million in 3Q 2024. The performance in the quarter was still impacted by ongoing macroeconomic, geopolitical, and industry-specific challenges, which continued to dampen consumers’ spending capacity and delay purchases of durable goods. This led to a lower-than-expected order intake which also impacted invoiced sales in the third quarter of 2025.
Sales from upholstered and other home furnishings products amounted to €72.5 million, down 1.2% compared to 3Q 2024. At constant exchange rate, sales from upholstered and other home furnishings products would have increased by 2.4% compared to 3Q 2024.
Revenues from upholstered and other home furnishings products are hereafter described according to the main dimensions of the Group’s business: i) Branded/Unbranded Business; ii) Key Markets; iii) Distribution.

GROSS MARGIN
Gross margin was 36.0%, compared to 31.8% in 3Q 2024 which included a 3.9% impact from severance-related costs accrued last year.
The price-list adjustment implemented by the management and an improved sales mix—with increased sales of higher-margin Natuzzi Italia products—has enabled the Group to protect gross margin.
During 3Q 2025, industrial labor cost totaled (€15.4) million, or (20.7%) of revenue, compared to (€17.3) million, or (23.0%) of revenue in 3Q 2024. Last year, the cost of industrial labor included (€2.9) million of severance-related costs in China.
“Other industrial costs” were (€3.7) million, compared to (€5.0) million in 3Q 2024, mainly as a result of the closure of our Shanghai operations completed last year.
OPERATING EXPENSES
During 3Q 2025, operating expenses, which include selling expenses, administrative expenses, other operating income/expenses, and the impairment of trade receivables, totaled (€28.5) million, or (38.3%) of revenue, compared to (€27.6) million, or (36.9%) of revenue in 3Q 2024.
2025 Third Quarter Results - page 5
Within Selling Expenses, salaries decreased by €0.5 million.
Trade duties were (€2.1) million, increasing from (€1.3) million in 3Q 2024. The Company has implemented price-list adjustments to counterbalance the increase in trade duties.
Transportation costs were (€5.6) million, compared to (€6.4) million in 3Q 2024.
Notably, in the third quarter of last year, the Company benefitted from €1.0 million in extraordinary income related to commercial expenses, whereas they were not significant in 3Q 2025.
Within Administrative expenses, we reported a €0.4 million increase in consultancy expenses in connection with the restructuring plan, and a €0.2 million increase of non-deductible and indirect taxes.
NET FINANCE INCOME/(COSTS)
Net Finance costs were (€2.4) million, compared to a total of (€3.3) million of Net Finance costs in 3Q 2024, mainly as a result of favorable currency movements on trade receivables and payables.
CASH FLOW AND BALANCE SHEET
As of September 30, 2025, we held €18.1 million in cash, down from €20.3 million as of December 31, 2024. The difference in cash during the period is the result of the following:
As of September 30, 2025, we had a net financial position before lease liabilities (cash and cash equivalents minus long-term borrowings minus bank overdraft and short-term borrowings minus current portion of long-term borrowings) of (€32.2) million, compared to (€21.7) million as of December 31, 2024, indicating a deterioration of €10.5 million in the period.
