Dear Stockholder and Customer,

The economic recovery that began to emerge in the second half of 2003 continued in

the first half of 2004, with one of the strongest global growth rates in the last thirty years,

sustained in particular by the United States and Asian countries.Although growth was not as

strong in Western Europe, the European commercial vehicle market still expanded by 11.8%

in 2004, thanks in particular to the positive trends in the United Kingdom, France and Spain.

2004 was a positive year for Iveco, in terms of financial results and of the progress of its

global growth strategy. Total sales and revenues for 2004 amounted to Euro 9.3 billion, a

10.2% increase on the previous year. Operating income increased from Euro 81 million in

2003 to Euro 357 million in 2004. The year closed with a net profit (Euro 104 million) for

the first time since 2001.

This significant improvement in Iveco’s financial performance is justified by a significant

increase in volumes, and a positive trend that also regards product prices and costs, in spite of

the negative repercussions of the increase in raw material costs in the second half of the year.

Iveco concentrated its strategy on the market and on customers, focusing on excellent

quality and technological innovation. Efficient manufacturing and distribution were the

guidelines of our approach and they have ensured that the value of our products has been

recognised.

In 2004, we confirmed our core values with strategic initiatives regarding the issues of the

environment, safety and productivity on the road.

We presented our completely revamped product range at the Hanover Commercial Vehicle

Show last September, together with cutting edge engines that anticipate future emissions

standards. It was an opportunity to communicate our technological innovations, which

include new engines that respect Euro 4 and Euro 5 emissions standards, the application

of active safety features, and open-architecture telematic systems for vehicle and fleet

management.

In 2004, Iveco also stepped up its efforts to internationalise, achieving concrete results such

as the definition of important new cooperation agreements with leading partners in China,

India and Turkey.

Our commitment to the satisfaction of our customers and stockholder, by focusing

incessantly on the market, the excellent quality of our products and services, and our global

presence in partnership with our dealers, will be confirmed in full in 2005, in a market that

continues to show signs of growth.

We would like to thank our customers and our stockholder for their trust and support, as

well as the entire Iveco team for the commitment and dedication with which it has pursued

and will continue to pursue our goals of lasting, profitable growth.

Iveco: 30 years of history, over 350 years of experience.

1975: a great challenge to the market and to the competition was launched. Iveco emerged

from the merger of 5 European commercial vehicle specialists, all founded late in the 19th

century. It is a story that star ts a long time ago, but which is heading straight into the future,

investing unwavering commitment and determination in the development of its products,

respect for the environment and for human beings. Thir ty years in which Iveco has always

pursued its vocation as a global, multicultural company.

In 2004 Iveco redirected its strategies, concentrating on customer satisfaction, technological

excellence and the quality of its products, as well as on service quality and striving for the

highest level of efficiency, with a lean organisation based on environment-friendly processes.

The partnership with the Hinduja Group of India, with which Iveco holds 51% in the AshokLeyland company and 59% in Ennore Foundries,was also strengthened in 2004.The newagreement with the Indian partners envisages a significant expansion of the cooperationbetween the two companies and marks animportant step forward in Iveco’s globaldevelopment strategy, as well as constitutingsound foundations for the supply of products and services at competitive costs.

Continuous growth through the expansion ofthe product range introduced in Eastern Europe,the development of marketing agreements inRussia and local manufacturing of the new heavyrange in Argentina and Brazil were essentialelements of Iveco’s globalisation strategy in 2004.

In 2004 Iveco stepped up its globalisationstrategy, and in December 2004 announced anagreement with the Shanghai Automotive IndustryCorp., one of the largest Chinese car-makers, forthe development of a long-term partnership inthe production of vehicles and of engines for themedium and heavy range.The product range of the Naveco company inNanking was also enlarged, while the CBC-Ivecoventure in the urban bus sector was reorganisedand strengthened.

Daily .17 HPT, both of which are equipped withnew generation engines that confirm Iveco’sleadership in this sector. In 2004 Iveco alsolaunched the Daily Agile which features anautomatic transmission, stability control, andlevels of driving comfort that are usually onlyavailable on cars.

In 2004, two new models were launched at the upper end of the Iveco Eurocargo range,leader of the European medium duty transportmarket, the 140E, with GVW of 14 t, and the160E, with GVW of 16 tonnes.A new version of the Eurocargo 4x4 was also launched, with a completely revamped cab.

The heavy Stralis range was also completedin 2004, with a prestigious version that has

no rivals on the market: the Executive Spaceflagship, undisputed top of the range withoutstanding equipment in terms of safety,comfort and practicality.

Iveco’s new Trakker family of quarry andconstruction vehicles was also launched in 2004,with a cab that shares the “family feeling” of the Stralis Active Time and Active Day, in a comprehensive range of 60 different types of trucks.The Trakker adopts chassis, front andrear axles and suspension technologies designedfor extreme conditions, that have been tried andtested in off-road vehicles for decades.The modern conception of the engines – thevarious versions of the Cursor 8 and Cursor 13families – guarantees outstanding performance at all times, combined with unequalled reliability.

Irisbus Iveco also pursued its range renewalprogramme in 2004, focusing in particular on therange of low emissions vehicles, and thosefuelled by natural gas.A CityClass bus poweredby fuel cells running on hydrogen was alsoregistered in Turin.

The special vehicle range was also extendedwith the introduction of new Astra Ivecoarticulated vehicles equipped with Cursorengines, and with new solutions in the fire-fighting sector, where Iveco Magirus is worldleader for technology and market leader forturntable ladders; this range has also beencompletely renewed.

At the 2004 Hanover IAA Show, Ivecolaunched a new range of engines for road

applications that are compatible with Euro 4 andEuro 5 emissions legislation well ahead of thedeadlines envisaged by the law.And it launchedthe new range of Vector engine for industrialapplications (rolling stock, marine applicationsand power generation).

Iveco also backs up its product range with a vast selection of after-sales services, sustainedby the technical efficiency and extension of theafter-sales network.

With a global network of highly specialist dealers

In 2004 Iveco strengthened its global deliverystrategy for its products through an organisednetwork of dealers, each of whom reflects a highlevel of specialisation and business skills,guaranteeing respect for quality standards that are constantly monitored.

The Iveco dealer network comprises 844companies in 100 countries around the world,which employ about 80,000 people.A significantpart of our network focuses on the sale andmaintenance of commercial vehicles for goodstransport, while the remainder is dedicated tobuses, special vehicles and engines. Iveco and itsnetwork strive constantly to find synergiesbetween the various business sectors in itsdistribution and service activities, so as to exploitIveco’s global presence all over the world and thecomprehensiveness of its product range.

For many years, Iveco has invested in thequality and specialisation of its network, in thefield of sales and of service. Service to customersis an essential element to improve loyalty to theIveco brand and this service is provided throughthe dealer network; all dealers are homologatedby criteria of service excellence for the vehicle’sentire life cycle, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

In order to guarantee a higher level of service for its customers, Iveco operates an organisational unit dedicated to analysis and optimisation of dealer performance.Our activities are directed primarily at:• optimising the process and distribution costs,

essential elements of the competitiveness of Iveco itself and its dealers;

With efficient, global purchasing

In 2004 Iveco completely reorganised thestructure of its Global Purchasing function,which is now able to grasp every opportunity to introduce new technologies, support the“Platform teams” effectively, and speed upmaterial cost efficiencies by exploiting everyavailable means, including the optimisation oftechnical content and Global Sourcing strategies.

In quantitative terms, our goal has been toguarantee far-reaching familiarity with the GlobalSourcing strategies, for 30% of annual purchasing,while also exploiting the competitiveness ofsuppliers from countries where costs are lower,developing relations with suppliers and favouringthose with co-designers and system integrators,as well as with strategic suppliers regardinginnovation and cost reduction.

Global Purchasing adopts the same rigoroustransparent system to manage purchasing all overthe world, implementing APQP (Advance ProductQuality Planning) after careful revision andreprogramming, both during the development of new products and in ongoing activities. Globalpurchasing has also chosen to carry out online

auctions, to analyse and to reassess the marketconditions of current products, particularly forindirect materials and instruments.

In 2004, some of Iveco’s main suppliers wereinvolved in Technology Days, which tackled theissue of innovation through the presentation ofnew products and new applications, trends andtechnological benchmarks.The Technology Dayswere backed up by meetings between the topmanagement of the various companies to reviewmutual commitments, to discuss and analyse thecurrent situation and to draft future programmestogether.

The savings achieved by Global Purchasingwhere material costs are concerned, are perfectlyin line with programmes, in spite of theunexpected increase and huge impact of the costof ferrous raw materials. Important savings havealso been achieved in the area of indirect andancillary materials and services, with a 5% costreduction.The quality of suppliers has beensignificantly improved.The new Global Sourcingstructure has concentrated considerable efforton organising purchasing in countries where

costs are lower, starting to import from EasternEurope, India, China and Brazil.

In September 2004, a Dealers’ Conventionwas organised for over 900 people, at which thecentral topics were competitive partnership,leadership and excellence.

With cutting edge information systems

In 2004 Iveco also radically restructured theIveco information systems. Group spirit, thecapacity to create complex projects in parallel in different parts of the world, and speed of execution were the features of the newinformation systems based on the SAP platform,accompanied by the growing dissemination ofsolutions that focus on virtual product definition.However, activities during the year were notrestricted to the classic Information Systems roll-out, but tested our ability to introduce new,highly innovative technologies, including LAN

Wireless,Voice-over IP, the Iveco teleconferencesystem and shared printing services.

Initiatives related to the adoption ofInternational Accounting Standards with the IASproject and to improve security with theMicrosoft Active Directory project, enabled us to bring Iveco into line with the internationalstandards and to consolidate and protect ourInternet environment.

Specialist expertise is now available tosupport all the business lines and joint ventures,consolidating the integration and standardisationof information systems in the various units, andstrengthening the Group’s innovative imagethroughout the world.

We have also broadened the InformationTechnology horizons beyond traditional boundaries,thanks to joint initiatives such as those in thebusiness development areas, the “Productivity on the Road” programme and the design anddevelopment of Iveco’s new Internet site.

Focusing on the development of its human capital

Growing attention to the quality of productsand services, that is typical of extremelycompetitive sectors like the automotive markettoday, has stimulated Iveco to invest its bestefforts in the selection and development of outstanding people.Today Iveco men andwomen have an opportunity to significantlyinfluence company results.

Iveco puts the growth of individual skills atthe centre of its professional development, inorder to achieve results. In other words, it offerspeople a system to develop human resourcesbased on the enhancement of professionalexpertise and constant stimulus to reachexcellent results.

16-17 2004 MACROECONOMIC SCENARIO

2004 MACROECONOMIC SCENARIO

The improvement in the world economy that emerged in the second half of 2003, continued in

the first half of 2004 and even accelerated.

Data currently available indicate that the global growth rate in 2004 should be one of the

highest in the last 30 years.

Page 11: Iveco bilancio_completo

Once again, in 2004 much of the merit forthis result should go to the United States, but thiswas not the only locomotive to drive the worldeconomy.Another important contribution camefrom Asia, and from China in particular.The surge of activity in Asia was one of the mainreasons for the strong increase in the price of raw materials, including crude oil.In spite of its recovery, expectations weredisappointed once again in the Euro zone, whichwas even overtaken by Japan where economicperformance is concerned.

One of the main risks of the growthrecorded in the latter part of 2004 was the trendin oil prices, which remained very high althoughbelow the all-time high achieved, in nominalterms, at the end of October.The drastic increasein crude oil prices was caused by what could bedescribed as a “perfect storm” in the oil market:the simultaneous effect of pressure on thedemand and supply sides, exasperated by financialspeculation.

For the time being, oil prices do not appearto have caused significant problems for the USeconomy. Compared to the high growth ratesrecorded in the second half of 2003, the USeconomy remained very strong but did lose steamin 2004 – coinciding with the end of theincentives of the last tax package and the gradualincrease in the cost of money.

There are still huge potential risks for USgrowth. One of the most important is the trendin the labour market, because the economydepends to such a large extent on privateconsumption, and the “twin deficits” of publicsector finances and the balance of payments.The continued deterioration of the latter is themain reason why the Dollar has begun to loseground once again.There is a school of thoughtthat only a weak Dollar will be able to reduce the US balance of payments deficit. However,the deficit is too large to be corrected only by the exchange rate mechanism, and it will onlybe possible to significantly reduce the deficit by

tackling the real cause of the problem: the lowpropensity to saving in both the public and theprivate sectors.

Once again it is the Euro that has to bearmost of the brunt of the realignment of theDollar.This puts the economic recovery of theEuro zone at risk, after it began to waver in thethird quarter because of the negative impact ofnet exports on growth rates.The result hides a very heterogeneous performance in the majorcountries in the area, in terms of both the rateand the composition of growth.

Unfortunately, because of the difficultsituation of the public finances of many Euro zonecountries (and of Germany and France inparticular), the authorities will not be able tointroduce additional tax incentives to stimulatedomestic demand.With persisting inflationarypressure and the already low level of interestrates, it also seems unlikely that the EuropeanCentral Bank will be able to provide a stimulus by a new relaxation of monetary policy.

The only action possible to give a newimpulse to the economy seems to be that of further structural reforms, something that

European Governments seem to haveunderstood. Reforms have become even moreurgent since the ten new members joined theEuropean Union.

The expansion of the European Union hascertainly had a positive effect on the economiesof the new member countries.This isdemonstrated by Poland, where the growth rateleapt forward at the start of the year thanks to a boom in consumer spending. However, thisgrowth sparked off inflationary pressure again,well above the targets set by the Central Bank.

The Turkish economy also performed well,and seems to have finally reached the longawaited stability, through careful management of economic policy.The recent green light to the start of negotiations for membership of theEuropean Union should further consolidate theresults achieved so far.

As we mentioned earlier, 2004 was anotheryear of strong growth in Asia, particularly inChina, which is rapidly taking on the role of majorgrowth engine in the area, the role formerly filledby Japan.

The Chinese economy is again recordinggrowth rates above 9% and, in spite of initial fearsthat it might overheat, it seems destined toachieve a “soft landing”, mainly thanks to theslowdown in investments brought about by newmeasures introduced by the Government.

2004 was also an excellent year for SouthAmerica.The Argentine economy recorded stronggrowth for the second year running, thanks toexcellent domestic demand. However, the fact

that negotiations have not been concluded withinternational creditors, which is indispensable if the situation is to normalise, remains a stumbling block.The Brazilian economy is alsorecovering well, after a disappointing 2003.Economic activities were initially the outcome of excellent exports, sustained by the boom inthe price of commodities. In subsequent months,growth has been sustained by domestic demand,stimulated by a relaxation of monetary policies in the second half of 2003.

GLOBAL CUSTOMER SERVICES

During 2004, Iveco Customer Service continued to develop its global service to customers

from the viewpoint of both the geographical area covered and the Iveco brands assisted. For

example, the logistical parts service for Irisbus and Iveco Motors, was better integrated with the

service delivered to commercial vehicle customers, while the gradual homogenisation of

onboard equipment has made it possible to develop more extensive after-sales services for all

types of vehicle.

Page 25: Iveco bilancio_completo

Continuous investment in qualityafter-sales services

Particular attention was focused ondeveloping the services of the Customer ServiceInternational Operations, for customers inEastern Europe,Africa and the Middle East,and the Asian Pacific basin.The figure of DistrictManager was created for each of the non-European Customer Service areas.From 2004, customers in the countries that haverecently joined the European Union can count on parts deliveries in less than 24 hours.

The availability of spare parts has proved a decisive factor of customer satisfaction and the competitiveness of the whole Iveco range.In 2004, Supply Chain Customer Service furtherboosted its service capability:

• increased availability of spare parts in itswarehouses and those of the dealer network;

• extension of the range by integrating parts forall products – commercial vehicles, buses,special vehicles, engines – in a single logistic-distribution system;

• specific investments in this service in EasternEurope.

What is more, over 200 dealers in Europenow share information, with each other and withIveco, regarding existing parts stocks in thenetwork, opening up a further formidable,

innovative source of parts that is crucial to theservice.A significant number of Authorisedworkshops in Europe now transmit parts ordersonline to dealers.The Customer Support Centre has developed itsactivities in the field of telediagnosis, by steppingup the resident skills of the “Expert Centre” andsignificantly increasing the number of remoteservices provided: in 2004, there was a 75%increase in the teleservices delivered compared to 2003.The number of workshops linked onlinealso increased significantly, guaranteeing a fasterresponse to our customers’ needs.

Over one million telephone contacts weremanaged, solving every request for service fromour customers, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

EASY (Electronic Advanced System) waslaunched in 2004, an innovative diagnosticinstrument for the various control units on thevehicle, which has met with the approval of thenetwork technicians: in just a few months,1,000 Iveco technicians have been trained to use the enormous potential that this systemoffers the workshop.

Financial and Contract hire services

Recognising the significant investment thatpurchasing a vehicle entails for an operator, Ivecooffers its customers a whole range of financial andoperational services through Iveco Finance.

Iveco Finance operates in Germany, France,the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, Portugal,Switzerland and Brazil, and it has developed a portfolio of products to supply Iveco customerswith competitive solutions, aimed at ensuring the most effective cost of ownership.

Within its range of financial services, IvecoFinance is able to study tailor-made solutions thatmay either confer ultimate ownership of thevehicle to the transport operator, or simplyprovide a vehicle with or without operationalservices under a long-term rental agreement.Various aspects of the operator’s business weretaken into consideration, including operatingincome, tax status and balance sheet aspirations,in order to propose the most effective solution.

Contract Hire envisages the provision of anIveco chassis, but may also include optional and/or

complementary equipment and bodywork, repairsand maintenance for the complete vehicle, roadsideassistance, trade-in, tyres, statutory tests wherethese are mandatory, road tax and insurance.It is also possible to include collection anddelivery for scheduled events, or to add a FleetManagement module, within which operators aresupplied with certain key performance indices.

At year-end 2004, the Iveco Finance portfoliocontained contracts for 103,080 vehicles,amounting to Euro 2,575 million. During the year,34,292 new financial contracts were signed,27,021 of which regarded new commercialvehicles for goods transport, while 7,271 regardedbuses, used vehicles, trailers and semitrailers.

GLOBAL CUSTOMER SERVICES48- 49

2004 also saw the launch of the POWERsystem (Parts on Web Easy Research), a newonline electronic catalogue that searches for spareparts; this technology constantly updates theinformation necessary to find a particular sparepart, with the goal of optimising the overall timenecessary for the repair process.

Careful use of the indications obtainedthrough customer satisfaction surveys made itpossible to boost customer loyalty to the Ivecoafter-sales products, helping to achieve a recordoperating result, which shows an 18%improvement on 2003.

Another important area of activity regardedthe revamping of the Customer Service image andthe Network’s ability to sustain the Iveco brandon the after-sales service market. In this regard,a plan was launched to revise the commercialcommunications policies.

One last point is the development ofstructural systems to increase customer loyalty,such as maintenance and repair contracts, and the

drafting of a programme to manage the vehicle’s“life cycle”, in order to further developcommercial opportunities for the Network,by offering a service in line with the vehicle’s useand residual value.

In 2004, Customer Service continued toinvest in the quality of its human resources and in new organisational solutions:

• a new Product Parts Engineering structure to speed up the development of spare parts;

• a new Sales & Marketing organisation, thatdifferentiates between Western Europe andother markets;

• a Service structure that consolidates all thetechnical service and Customer Supportactivities.

Net revenues for 2004 amounted to Euro 9,290 million, 10% above the previous year (Euro8,442 million in 2003). Comparison with the consolidation area of 2003 in homogeneous terms, showsa net increase of 9.74%, due to higher unit sales and improved profitability.

Revenues from services rendered, primarily the result of the activities of the financial companiesin the Iveco Group, increased by 18.9% over the previous year.

Other revenues increased by Euro 60 million (+13.5%) compared to 2003, primarily as a resultof the increase in assets under construction (+9.5%) and a 50% improvement in final inventoriescompared to the previous year.

The cost of production amounted to Euro 9,436 million (Euro 8,805 million in 2003), an increaseof 7.2% which, if compared to the 10% increase in sales, underlines the effect of the efficiency policyadopted by the group during the year.

Operating income of Euro 357 million was recorded, a considerable improvement on theprevious year. Operating profitability on net sales was 4%, four times as high as 2003 when it stood at1%. Operating income was positively influenced by the cost curbing policies implemented by Iveco in2004, and strong market growth in Western Europe, which resulted in an increase in volumes invoiced.

Net financial charges totalled Euro 120 million (Euro 126 million in 2003) primarily as a resultof the lower level of indebtedness during the year.

Income from non-consolidated investments, which presents a loss of Euro 43.9 million (aloss of Euro 0.6 million in 2003), was influenced by the writedown of financial fixed assets not held asequity investments by Iveco Participations for Euro 21.5 million, the writedown by Iveco SpA of thesubsidiary CBC for Euro 20 million and by the further writedown of Iveco Pegaso of its subsidiaryTBCO for Euro 5.4 million.

The balance of extraordinary income/expenses for the year was negative for about Euro 35million (Euro -166 million in 2003). This decrease was due to lower allocations to extraordinaryreserves compared to the previous year.

Income tax resulted in a negative balance of Euro 50 million (negative for Euro 46 million in2003). This breaks down into Euro 33 million for IRAP (Euro 29 million in 2003), Euro 38 million forother taxes (Euro 42 million in 2003), and Euro 21 million for deferred tax credits (Euro 24 million in 2003).

Financial results for the year are described in the brief Balance Sheet and notes that follow:

Net tangible fixed assets decreased by Euro 119 million, from Euro 1,908 million to 1,790million, primarily as a result of:

• a decrease of Euro 62 million in capital spending, from Euro 210 million to Euro 148 million.Thisdecrease was determined primarily by the reduction in long-term industrial expenditure (Euro 45million), after the significant spending of the three previous years for the important renewalprogrammes of the 3 engine ranges, and by decreased spending on long-term rental vehicles;• a decrease in depreciation and writedowns from Euro 258 million to Euro 250 million, primarilyfor lower capital spending during the period;• a decrease in disposals from Euro 54 million to Euro 21 million, including long-term rentalvehicles.Other fixed assets totalled Euro 425 million (Euro 440.5 million in 2003), and remained

substantially stable.Working capital decreased by Euro 122 million, from Euro (27) million to Euro (149) million, as

a result of:• an increase in trade receivables of Euro 240 million, due to the higher incidence of sales in thelast quarter of the year;

• inventories only increased by Euro 25 million thanks to cautious management, and thereforewithout being affected by the strong increase in sales in the latter part of the year;• current liabilities increased by Euro 350 million due to the sales and intense manufacturing ratein the final part of the year.Stockholders’ Equity increased from Euro 913 million at 31/12/2003 to Euro 1,014 million at

31/12/2004; Stockholders’ Equity pertaining to the group amounts to Euro 827 million (increasing byEuro 98 million on 2003).The Euro 98 million increase in Stockholders’ Equity is the effect of income for the year (Euro 104million).

The net financial position at 31/12/2004 revealed a lower level of net indebtedness of Euro 33million (Euro 397 million in 2003), which reflects an improvement of Euro 364 million.

The following table presents the main financial flows that produced this change:

The improvement in the net financial position is due primarily to the sizeable profit generated byordinary operations (operating income of Euro 357 million), a reduction in working capital (Euro 104million) and in capital expenditure (Euro 141 million net of amortization and depreciation), less normaluptake of liquid assets for extraordinary, financial and tax operations (a total of Euro -226 million).

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS56- 57

The structure of the Net financial position at 31/12/2004 is presented in the following table,and compared to the position at 31/12/2003:

A detailed analysis of the changes follows:

a) Financial receivables:financial receivables increased by Euro 319 million and this change is due entirely to intercompanyreceivables with the Fiat Group central Treasury, even related to liquid assets generated by the disposalof receivables, including the effect of the new securitisation operation in France, begun in April 2004,while the portfolio of financial receivables of the finance companies remains practically unchangedfrom the previous year.

b) Financial payables:short and medium-term financial payables improved by Euro 122.6 million, due primarily to the positiveeffect of the cash generated by operations during the year, which resulted in a reduction of Euro 82million in payables to banks, and of approximately Euro 39 million in payables to other financiers.

Important events occurring after year-end and forecast operating trends

In the first months of 2005 the market was stronger than in the same period of the previous year,and Iveco’s market share also benefited, maintaining the positive trend of 2004.

We also point out that we have received the go-ahead from the Spanish authorities for theproposed merger between the Spanish companies Irisbus Holding, Irisbus Iberica and Iveco Pegaso, asa consequence of the corporate rationalisation undertaken in the last two years.

Management and coordination, and Infragroup transactions

Iveco Group operates autonomously in respect of the strategic and operating guidelines imparted bythe parent company Fiat SpA, which performs management and coordination activities as per art. 2497 ofthe Italian Civil Code.

This guidance takes the shape of the definition and adaptation of the governance and internal controlmodel, the issue of a Code of Conduct adopted at Group level and the elaboration of general policies forthe management of human and financial resources, and the supply of manufacturing and communicationselements. This coordination also envisages central management of treasury, corporate and administrativeservices, internal auditing and training, by dedicated companies.

Relations with the coordinating company and the companies coordinated jointly, analysed in the Reporton Operations, consist in the customary supply of assets and services between Fiat Group companies inthe context of the coordination referred to above.

Management and coordination activities generally produce positive effects for corporate operationsand results, because they allow the company to achieve economies of scale, taking advantage of professionaland specialist skills of a very high quality, and concentrating resources on the core business.

During the year, the company did not undertake any transactions in which decisions were influencedby the coordinating company.

Relations within the Group and with related partiesAbove mentioned relations, which regard companies in other Fiat Group Sectors, involve Iveco as

the purchaser/supplier of goods and user of services.Sales refer above all to the diesel engines manufactured in the Foggia and Turin plants, which are

destined respectively to Sevel SpA and Case New Holland Italia SpA.Purchases within the Fiat Group generally regard materials and components for vehicle

production.In particular we highlight the relations with Fiat Geva SpA in the field of treasury and exchange

rate activities, those with HRSS SpA, Fiat Sepin SpA, Sadi SpA and Fiat Ges.co. SpA for administrativeactivities and with Global Value for IT services. Maintenance services are supplied to Iveco by ComauService.

Where sales and services are concerned, relations with other Group companies and with relatedparties primarily regard:

In order to obtain a true and correct representation of the financial position and results of operationsof the Iveco Group, taking into account their functional integration, the financial subsidiaries have beenconsolidated on a line-by-line basis. As a result, adjustments to the balance sheet and statement ofoperations format have been made applying Article 32 of the Legislative Decree No. 127/91, which pro-vides for changes to be made to obtain a clearer, truer and more correct representation of the finan-cial position and results of operations.

Consolidation methodsAssets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, of subsidiaries consolidated on a line-by-line basis are

included in the consolidated financial statements of the Iveco Group, regardless of the percentage ofownership. Carrying values of investments are eliminated against the subsidiaries’ related stockholders’equity. The portion of stockholders’ equity and results of operations attributed to minority interestsare disclosed separately.In accordance with Legislative Decree No. 127, differences arising from the elimination of investmentsagainst the related stockholders’ equity of the investments at the date of acquisition are allocated,where applicable, to assets and liabilities of the company being consolidated. The residual value, ifpositive, is capitalised in the caption “Consolidation Differences”, and is amortised on the straight-linemethod over the estimated period of recoverability. Negative residual amounts are recorded as acomponent of stockholders’ equity “Consolidation reserve” (or as a liability “Consolidation reservefor future risks and charges”, when due to a forecast of unfavourable economic results).Unrealised intercompany profits, losses, and related tax effects are eliminated, together with allintercompany receivables, payables, revenues and expenses arising on transactions between companiesconsolidated on a line-by-line basis which have not been realised with third parties.The gross margin on intercompany sales is eliminated, with the exception of plant and equipmentproduced and sold at prices in line with market conditions, in which case such eliminations would beeffectively irrelevant and not cost-beneficial. Also subject to elimination are guarantees, commitmentsand risks relating to companies included in the area of consolidation.The balance sheets of foreign subsidiaries are translated into Euro by applying the exchange rates ineffect at year end.The statements of operation of foreign subsidiaries are translated using the averageexchange rates, except for those subsidiaries operating in high-inflation countries (cumulative inflationin excess of 100% in three years), in which case, if it is relevant, accounting principles for high inflationaccounting are used.Exchange differences resulting from the translation of opening stockholders’ equity at currentexchange rates and at the exchange rates used at the end of the previous year, as well as differencesbetween net income expressed at average exchange rates and that expressed at year-end exchangerates, are reflected in the stockholders’ equity caption “Cumulative Translation Adjustments”.Such reserves relating to investments in subsidiaries or associated companies are included in thestatement of operations upon the sale of the investments to third parties.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS66- 67

Form and content of the consolidated Financial StatementsThe consolidated financial statements for 2004 have been prepared in compliance with the

Legislative Decree no. 127 of April 9, 1991, implementing E.C. Directives IV and VII. Important eventsoccurring after year-end, that are illustrated in the Report on operations, are an integral part of thepresent Notes.The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the parent company Iveco SpA and of its Italian and foreign subsidiaries, in which Iveco directly or indirectly holds morethan 50% of the capital stock, or companies in which Iveco has control on the basis of specificagreements between shareholders.In line with the Fiat Group’s consolidation methodologies, legal requirements and Italian accountingprinciples, the companies in which Iveco holds a 50% interest with other partners were consolidatedby the equity method.

As permitted by law, minor companies for which it is not possible to obtain the necessary informationon a timely basis, or because they are insignificant, have been excluded from consolidation.

In reference to the Financial Statements formats, integrations have been made to comply with the Legislative Decree no. 6 of 2003 (“Reform of Corporate Law”) which came into force on January 1, 2004.

The principal changes in the consolidation scope in 2004 are as follows:• consolidation on a line-by-line basis of:

• Iveco Colombia Ltda• Lavorazione Plastica Srl• Irisbus Benelux Ltd• Ikarus Trade Kft

• deconsolidation by the Equity method of:• Closing Joint Stock Company “AUTO-MS”

• consolidation by the Equity method of:• Elettronica Trasporti Commerciali Srl

Consolidation methods and accounting principlesThe consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the statutory financial statements

of the Group’s single companies approved by the Boards of Directors and adjusted, where necessary,by the Directors of the companies to conform with Fiat Group accounting principles and to eliminatetax-driven adjustments. The Fiat Group’s accounting policy respects the requirements set forth byLegislative Decree No. 127 of April 9, 1991, interpreted and supplemented by the Italian accountingprinciples issued by the National Boards of Dottori Commercialisti and of Ragionieri and, where thereare none and not at variance, by those laid down by the International Accounting Standards Board(I.A.S.B.).

Accounting principlesBalance SheetFixed Assets

Intangible fixed assetsIntangible assets and deferred charges expected to benefit future periods are recorded at cost,

adjusted by amortization calculated on a straight-line basis over the period to be benefited. In particular,goodwill and differences on consolidation are amortised over a period of not more than 20 years, takinginto account their expected period of recovery. Goodwill represents the contractual amount paid forgoodwill resulting from the acquisition of a company or investment. The Iveco Group periodicallyassesses that the carrying value of such assets is not higher than the estimated recovery value, inrelation to their use or realisation, as determined by reference to the most recent Group plans.

Tangible fixed assetsTangible fixed assets are recorded at purchase or construction cost. These values are adjusted

where specific laws of the country in which the assets are located allow or require revaluation, inorder to reflect, even if only partially, changes in the purchasing power of the currency. Cost alsoincludes internal and external financing expenses incurred up to the time the tangible assets are readyfor use.Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis with rates that reflect the estimated useful life of therelated assets. When, at the balance sheet date, tangible fixed assets show a permanent impairment invalue to below their carrying value, such assets are written down to the lower value, according to themethod indicated above for intangible assets. Ordinary repairs and maintenance expenses related totangible fixed assets are charged to the statement of operations in the year in which they are incurred,while maintenance expenses which increase the value of the assets are capitalised.Capital investment grants related to investments in fixed assets are recorded as deferred income whencollection becomes certain and credited to income over the useful life of the related asset

Financial fixed assetsFinancial fixed assets include investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries, financial receivables held

for investment purposes and other securities.Companies in which Iveco SpA directly or indirectly holds from 20% to 50% of the voting capital arevalued in accordance with the equity method or recorded at cost when it approximates the value of

stockholders’ equity, when it would not have been practicable to obtain the necessary information fortheir consolidation on a timely basis without disproportionate expense or because their activities arenot significant.Less significant investments in which Iveco SpA directly or indirectly holds less than 20% of the votingcapital are valued at cost, corresponding to the cost of acquisition increased by direct charges or anyamounts paid for the value of additional shares purchased. In cases of permanent impairment, avaluation allowance is provided as a direct reduction of the corresponding asset.Financial receivables are recorded at estimated realisable value.Securities are recorded at cost, including additional direct charges. In cases of permanent impairment,a valuation allowance is provided as a direct reduction of the securities.The investment in equipment leased is recorded at cost. The related depreciation is generallycalculated, according to the financial method based on the life of the lease and the related risk inmanaging such contracts.

Current assetsInventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined on a First In First

Out (FIFO) basis.The valuation of inventories includes the direct costs of materials and labour and variable and fixedindirect costs.Work in progress on long-term contracts is valued on the basis of the stage of completion and isrecorded gross of advance payments received from customers. Potential losses on such contracts arefully recorded when they become known. Provision is made for obsolete and slow-moving rawmaterials, finished goods, spare parts and other supplies based on their expected future use andrealisable value.Receivables are recorded at estimated realisable value. Unearned interest included in the nominal valueof receivables has been deferred to future periods. Receivables denominated in foreign currency aretranslated at the exchange rate in effect at year end. Resulting exchange gains and losses are includedin the statement of operations.Securities not held as fixed assets are evaluated at lower of cost or market value.

Reserves for risks and charges and employee severance indemnitiesThe reserve for risks and charges include provisions on an accrual basis to cover losses or

liabilities likely to be incurred but uncertain as to the amount or date on which they will arise.Provisions reflect the best possible estimate based on all the available information.The reserve for pensions and similar obligations includes provisions for long-service or other bonusespayable to employees under contractual agreements or by law, determined on an actuarial basis whereapplicable. In particular, pension funds are accounted for in accordance with IAS 19.The Iveco Groupadopts the "corridor" approach, allowed by IAS 19, chapter 92.The reserve for employee severance indemnities includes the liability for severance indemnities forItalian companies accrued at year end for each employee and determined in accordance with labourlegislation. In particular, the liability includes a portion of the employee’s annual salary and is indexedfor inflation in accordance with Italian rules.Restructuring reserves include the costs to carry out reorganisation and restructuring plans and areprovided in the year the Management formally decides to commence such plans, to the extent thatsuch costs can be reasonably estimated.

PayablesPayables are recorded at face value; the portion of interest included in the nominal amount is

deferred until future periods in which it is paid.Accounts payable denominated in foreign currency aretranslated at the exchange rate in effect at year end. Resulting exchange gains and losses are includedin the statement of operations.Taxes payable include the tax charge for the current year recorded in the statement of operations.

Accruals and deferralsAccruals and deferrals are determined using the accrual method based on the income and expense

to which they relate.

Memorandum accounts

Off-balance sheet financial instrumentsThe Cost of Financial Instruments used to hedge exchange rate risk (or “financial component”,

representing the difference between the spot exchange rate at inception date and the forwardexchange rate) is charged to the Statement of Operations as Financial income and charges, on anaccrued basis. At year end the difference between the value of the instrument at the spot exchangerate at inception date and the value at the forward exchange rate is charged to the Statement ofoperations to offset the effects of the transaction being hedged. In particular, for contracts entered tohedge the exchange risk of future transactions that are considered highly probable, the effects ofalignment at the year-end exchange rate are deferred until the year in which the hedged transactionsare recorded.For instruments used to hedge interest rate risk, the interest rate differential is charged to theStatement of operations, as Financial income and expenses, on an accrual basis, offsetting the effects ofthe hedged transaction.Derivative financial instruments hedging interest rate fluctuations used for trading purposes are valuedat market value, and the differential, if negative, is charged to the Statement of operations underFinancial income and expenses.Similar prudential accounting methods are adopted to evaluate other derivative financial instruments(for example, equity swaps) when requirements for “hedge accounting” are not met.

Statement of Operations

RevenuesRevenues from sales of products are recognised at the moment title passes to the customer, which

is generally at the time of shipment. Revenues from long-term contracts are recognised using thepercentage of completion method.Revenues also include amounts received from financing leases, net of depreciation, and income fromcompany assets on operating leases.

CostsCosts are recognised on an accrual basis.

Research and development costs are mainly charged to the statement of operations in the period inwhich they are incurred. Research-related revenue grants provided by the Government or the EU arecredited to the statement of operations when collection becomes certain. The caption Leases andrentals, relate to rentals and, according to Italian regulations, operating lease costs, including thosecarried out by Fraikin Group companies following the securitisation of the fleet, in previous years.Advertising and promotion expenses are charged to the statement of operations in the period inwhich they are incurred. Estimated product warranty costs are charged to the statement of operationsat the time of sale (accrual method).

Financial income and expenseCharges and income resulting from off-balance sheet financial instruments, and year-end exchange

differences, are recorded in the Statement of Operations using the methods mentioned above in theMemorandum Accounts caption.

DividendsDividends and the related tax credit are recorded in the year the investee company resolves their

distribution, which normally coincides with the encashment date.

TaxationIncome tax for the year is determined on the basis of existing legislation in the countries in which

Iveco companies operate.Deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets are determined for the most significant consolidationtransactions and all the temporary differences between the consolidated assets and liabilities and thecorresponding amounts for taxation purposes shown in the financial statements of consolidatedcompanies.Deferred tax assets are only recorded if there is reasonable certainty of their future recovery.Deferred tax liabilities are not recorded if it is unlikely that a future liability will arise. Deferred taxassets and liabilities are offset if they refer to the same company. The balance from offsetting theseamounts is recorded under Other receivables in Current Assets, if a deferred asset, and under theDeferred taxation provision, if a deferred tax liability.Starting from December 2004 Iveco has decided to apply the Italian tax consolidation procedureallowed by arts. 117/129 of the Consolidating Law (T.U.I.R.) for its Italian companies for a period ofthree years.Fiat SpA acts as the consolidating company and determines a single taxable income for the group ofcompanies that apply the tax consolidation procedure, benefiting the off-set of taxable income and taxlosses in a single tax declaration.Each company included in the tax consolidation procedure transfers its taxable income to the parentcompany, recording a debt with relation to Fiat SpA, equal to the IRES tax payable; companies thatrecord tax losses may enter a receivable in respect of Fiat SpA, equal to the IRES payable, for thatportion of the loss that is compensated at Group level.

2.Tangible fixed assets

As explained in the Accounting principles a portion of Tangible fixed assets was revalued, inprevious years. At December 31, 2004, the net book value of this revaluation amounted to Euro 81.5million (Euro 87.9 million in December 2003).The positive “Net change to consolidation scope” is of Euro 1.6 million, primarily the result of thedeconsolidation of Closing Joint Stock Company “AUTO-MS” (Euro 2.6 million), and the consolidationof Società Lavorazione Plastica Srl (Euro 4.3 million).The column “Reclassifications” basically includes the reduction in “Assets under construction” andadvances on the purchase of fixed assets at the end of the previous year, reclassified in their respectiveitems at the moment the purchase was completed and the asset has started to be used.Additions amount to Euro 148.2 million: the most significant areas affected were the new enginefamilies, the restyling of the Stralis heavy vehicle and maintenance of the bus ranges.

The depreciation rates adopted fall into the following ranges:

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS72- 73

Fixed Assets

1. Intangible fixed assets

The item “Intangible fixed assets” shows a net increase of approximately Euro 21 million comparedto 2003. “Concessions, licenses, trademarks and similar rights” (Euro 22.8 million) refers primarily tocosts related to the SAP project.The increase in the “disposals” column of the item “Concessions, licences, trademarks and similarrights” is due to reclassifications from fixed assets in previous years to operational assets in 2004.The increase in the item “Assets under construction and advances” essentially regards further costsfor the implementation of the SAP project by Iveco SpA.The decrease in “Other intangible fixed assets” as well as in Consolidation differences compared tothe previous year, is mainly due to “depreciation”.“Consolidation differences” amount to Euro 46.3 million at December 31, 2004 and this refers almostentirely to the net goodwill from the consolidation of Irisbus (Euro 43.2 million).Where “Goodwill” and “Consolidation differences” are concerned, we point out that amortization isspread over a period of five to twenty years, on the basis of the expected recoverability of theseamounts. As a result, specific valuations were performed at year-end to verify the future recoverabilityof such amounts, considering the current prospects for profitability, in order to verify the existance, ifany, of permanent impairment of value.This analysis showed that it was necessary to partially writedown the goodwill recorded up on theacquisition of the Lavorazione Plastica Srl company, on June 1, 2004, of Euro 32.5 million (column“change to consolidation scope”).This writedown amounts to Euro 20.5 million.

InvestmentsThe following changes occurred to investments:

Investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries decrease of Euro -1.4 million (column “Other changes”),due essentially to the change in the method of consolidation of Irisbus Benelux Ltd (Euro -0.8 million)and Iveco Columbia Ltda from the cost method to the line by line method.Investments in associated companies decrease compared to the previous year by approximately Euro20 million; the increase of Euro 4.2 million in the column “Other changes” refers primarily to thechange in the method used to consolidate Closing Joint Stock Company “AUTO-MS” (Euro 1.8 million)from the line by line method to the Equity method.The column “Exchange rate difference” (Euro -8.6 million) relates to investments in Naveco (Euro 7.6million), Haveco (Euro -0.7 million) and Uralaz (Euro -0.3 million) companies.The column “Revaluations and writedowns” shows a loss of Euro 15 million which refers in particularto the writedown of the CBC company recorded by Iveco SpA Holding for approximately Euro 20million.Investments in “Other companies” decrease by Euro 3.9 million, due primarily to the writedowns ofinvestments in the subsidiaries Trucks & Bus Company (Euro -5.4 million) and Isvor (Euro -1.9 million),offset by a stock capital increase occurred during the year of Euro 3.9 million in Trucks & BusCompany.Investments are expressed net of any writedown reserves created in the presence of permanent lossesin value.

9. Stockholders’ Equity

Capital stockAt December 31, 2004 the capital stock is fully paid-in and consists of 858,400,000 ordinary shares

with a par value of Euro 1 each, equal to Euro 858.4 million.

Additional paid-in capitalAt December 31, 2004, the Additional paid-in capital reserve consists of 230,000,000 shares with

a par value of Euro 1 each.

Legal reserveThe Legal reserve is the result of the allocation of retained earnings, as per art. 2430 of the Italian

Civil Code.

Cumulative translation adjustmentsCumulative translation adjustments include exchange rate differences arising from the conversion

of the Stockholders’ Equity of consolidated companies whose financial statements are prepared inforeign currencies.Exchange rate differences from conversion are determined by comparison between initialStockholders’ Equity converted at current rates and the Stockholders’ Equity converted at currentrates at the end of the previous year, and the difference between operating income expressed ataverage exchange rates and at current rates.

Retained earnings and other reservesOther reserves primarily refer to the monetary revaluation reserves for certain tangible fixed

assets recorded in previous years, particularly in Italy, in compliance with local law. The net residualvalue of these revaluations is illustrated in Note 2. Under Italian law, monetary revaluation reservescan be used to cover previous years’ losses; however, if they are distributed, they become taxable. Nodeferred taxes payable have been accrued because the Group does not consider as provable thedistribution of such reserves.

10. Reserves for risks and charges

Warranty reserves increase by Euro 67.3 million, primarily due to the extension of the warrantyon light vehicles to a second year (Euro 15 million), the extension to a third year of the warranty onheavy vehicles for components such as gearboxes, front axles, etc., and for larger sales volumes (+10%),resulting in a larger fleet on the road.

Tax provisionThe substantial decrease in the “Tax provision” (Euro 4.9 million) is linked to the release of funds

related to the tax amnesty applied for in 2004, primarily by Sicca SpA (Euro 2.3 million), Iveco SpA(Euro 1 million), Irisbus Italia SpA and Astra Veicoli Industriali SpA.

Deferred tax reservesThe deferred tax reserve at December 31 2004 comprises the liabilities for deferred taxes, net of

deferred tax assets that can be offset, attributable to the individual consolidated companies.The deferred tax reserve, net of deferred tax assets recorded in the item “Receivables from thirdparties” breaks down as follows:

The Euro 17.7 million change in deferred tax reserves is due to changes in the economic environment,as well as the effect of the change in the exchange rate and changes to the consolidation scope.Receivables for deferred tax credits are recorded under “Other receivables from Tax authorities” (seeNote 5).

The deferred tax reserve, net of Assets for anticipated tax entered under Receivables from thirdparties, breaks down as follows:

The item “Other” under tax payments on account primarily relates to the effect of the eliminationof some tax driven adjustments related to accellerated depreciation as required by the new “Reformof Corporate Law”.This mainly affects Iveco SpA, and changes in the warranty reserve and other taxedreserves, which are not shown in detail in the table, including the reserve for exchange rate differences,primarily for Iveco Limited, and reclassifications justified by changes in the nature of individual items.When allocating deferred taxes, each company in the sector, critically evaluated the possibility of thefuture recoverability of such assets on the basis of updated strategic plans, by the indications set outin the Accounting Principles.For this reason, the total deferred tax reserve, net of deferred tax assets was reduced by Euro 151million of which Euro 117 million relates to the theoretical tax benefit on tax loss carry-forward notrecorded (Euro 83.2 million at December 31, 2003) and Euro 34 million to other temporarydifferences.

Other reservesReserves for risks and charges amount to Euro 284.3 million at December 31, 2004 (Euro 289.1

The reduction in exchange exposure, substantiallyoriginating from the positive balance between exports and imports, was based on the expected trendin exchange rates and the need to hedge the exchange levels of reference without completelyforegoing the benefits deriving from a favorable trend in the rates. This year exchange rate risk wasmanaged once again by a combination of options and domestic currency swaps (DCS).

Income tax paid by the Iveco Group in 2004 amounts to approximately Euro 81.2 million.Income tax for the year (Euro 49.7 million) increases by Euro 3.5 million on 2003, due to an increasein IRAP of Euro 3.2 million, a decrease in other current taxes of Euro 3.1 million and a decrease ofEuro 3.4 million in the balance between deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities.

The Euro 3.2 million increase in IRAP was due primarily to the increase in the taxable income ofIveco SpA, while the decrease in other current taxes of Euro 3.1 million is due primarily to the use of tax loss carry-forwards, accelerated depreciation and amortization and other tax temporarydifferences.The positive balance of deferred taxes decreased by Euro 3.4 million because the provisionof deferred tax assets on tax loss carry-forward and timing differences was higher than the decreasein deferred tax assets for the use of retained losses and the provision of deferred tax liabilities onaccelerated depreciation and amortization.
