Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

High-value auction of a brand-defining model reinforces Ferrari's premium pricing power and exclusivity, potentially supporting multiple expansion on a luxury-asset multiple basis. Yet, the EV transition introduces execution risk; the net effect hinges on continued demand for personalization and EV acceptance in the ultra-lant luxury segment, seen in the positive Q2 and guidance uptick.
