H1 2022 – Highlights

2
2
Q2 2022 is the sixth consecutive quarter in which CAREL reported a double digit organic revenues growth. These very solid results, characterized by a demand that remains strong both in HVAC and in Refrigeretion were achieved in spite of a persistent challenging scenario in the supply chain.

- Excluding the positive impact of the exchange rates, and the contribution coming from the acquisition of CFM and Enginia (~16m€) the organic revenues growth rate reported is +18.2%.
- Q2 2022 organic revenues growth (LFL at constant exchange rate) equal to 15.0%, standing in the highest end of the guidance given in May.
- Supply chain challenging scenario exacerbated by the lock-downs in China due to a resurgence of COVID-19 epidemic.

- EBITDA margin equal to 21.5%: higher both on FY 2021 and on Q1 2022 level.
- The full deployment of the effects deriving from previous price-list increases and the positive operating leverage effects partly offset higher raw materials costs due to the shortage.

- M&A pipeline remains active. During H1 2022 CAREL completed two bolt-on transactions:
- Acquisition of 70% of the share capital of Sauber
- Acquisition of a further 30% stake in Arion
M&A – 2022 – Sauber

- Company profile: Sauber is based in Porto Mantovano (Mantua) and is active mainly in the sector of on-field installation and maintenance services for HVAC/humidification systems in commercial and residential buildings, with a strong focus on energy saving and optimization.
- Rationale: the transaction can be traced back to the implementation of one of the main pillars of CAREL's strategy of strengthening its services area (digital, onfield and consulting) both by internal activities and through acquisitions.
- Transaction structure: Carel takes over control of Sauber through the acquisition of 70% of its share capital. The acquisition of the remaining 30%, the valuation of which is tied to Sauber future results, is governed by a cross-option mechanism between the parties, exercisable in 2025.

- Company profile: Arion is the joint venture based in Bolgare (Bergamo Province - Italy), established in 2015 between CAREL and Bridgeport S.p.A. with the aim of developing sensor technology expressly dedicated to the air conditioning and refrigeration sectors.
- Rationale: The transaction is consistent with the Group's long-term strategy since the use of increasingly advanced sensors will make the equipment more efficient, more reliable and more connected with the eco-system in which they are inserted, also facilitating the activation of digital services.
- Transaction structure: Carel acquired a further 30% of the share capital of Arion reaching a 70% stake.

- Revenue +29.0%: In spite of the challenging scenario (supply chain tensions, cost inflation, slow-down in global economy), the company managed to grow organically close to 20% (+18.2%), thanks to the excellent execution of its multi-year strategic guidelines, including the pursuit of resilience and production flexibility. It is worth noting that the growth rate reported in H1 2021 was already very high (+26%)
- EBITDA +27.2%: The very positive results reported in revenues were reflected in the EBITDA growth rate. Q2 2022 EBITDA margin close to 22% thanks to the full deployment of previous price-list increases, along with operating leverage which helped in recovering part of the raw material cost inflation.
- Net Profit +29.7%: benefitting from the operating results. Higher Tax-rate (21.4%) compared to what reported in H1 2021 (19.9%) due to a different country mix.
- Capex: higher capex including the new plant in Croatia.

H1 2022 – Revenue breakdowns

6

- EMEA Robust growth rate reported also in Q2 2022, in spite of the raw material shortage still affecting the business. H1 2022 LFL growth rate equal to 19%
- APAC The deceleration in the growth rate of the area is attributable to the prolonged and strict numerous lock-downs in China. Very positive results instead in South APAC (>20%)
- Americas (North) Even excluding M&A contribution and the positive FX impact, the growth rate reported would have been higher than 20%.
- Americas (South) Growth rate acceleration in Q2 2022 thanks also to seasonality in Refrigeration sector.

- HVAC: Excellent growth confirmed (~20% excluding M&A and FX), driven by a strong demand across the board already experienced in the last quarters (particularly strong in heat pumps, Indoor air quality and data centers).
- Refrigeration: Excluding M&A and FX the growth rate would have been ~16%. The slow-down in growth reported in Q2 2022 is linked to the very strong results reported in Q2 2021 and not to a deceleration in demand, which remains robust. 6

- Higher D&A mainly due to the purchase price allocation amortisation
- Financial charges slightly higher compared to H1 '21 impacted mainly by the financial effects of the put/call option on CFM
- The growth in Companies consolidated with equity method is due to the application of the fair-value principle on Arion stake, following the related M&A transaction.
• tax-rate increase (21.4%), compared to 19.9% reported in H1 2022 due to different country mix.
7
H1 2022 – NFP Bridge


• Robust cash generation was offset by a strategic increase in NWC along with the payment of 2021 dividends.
- ΔNWC +37.4m€: The significant increase in NWC is mainly due to higher revenues (DSO are substantially the same compared to H1 2021) and a strategic consolidation of the safety stock (~19m€) in order to be more resilient in such challenging raw material shortage scenario.
- Approximately one third of the total H1 2022 NFP is related to IFRS 16 accounting effect.
Closing Remarks

9
- Solid growth across the board and in all the regions with a demand level that remains high and healthy. Some applications continue to stand out such as heat pumps, data centers, Indoor Air Quality in HVAC and Food Retail in Refrigeration.
- The strong effort that the Company put and is still putting into initiatives to increase its resilience (chippivoting, longer-term orders, double source/country suppliers, new plant in Croatia) allowed for a double-digit organic growth in revenues for the sixth consecutive quarter.
M&A
- In H1 2022 CAREL completed two minor bolt-on acquisitions but with a significant strategic potential:
- Sauber Strengthening Group's positioning in the services area
- Arion Securing the supply chain and opening new opportunities in the sensors field
- M&A pipeline is still active, with a particular focus on Europe and US.
Challenges
Q2/H2 2022 Results
- The electronic material shortage phenomenon and inflation have not shown significant and unmistakable signs of relief/recovery compared to previous quarters.
- The restrictive monetary policy adopted by Fed and ECB are likely to slow-down global economic growth (US real GDP decreased by 1.6% in Q1 2022 and by 0.9% in Q2 2022)
Guidance
9 A demand scenario that remains positive and the continuous effort of the company in increasing its resilience should allow the company to positively cope with the above-mentioned challenges. Thanks to this, and net of possible further worsening in the supply chain, the Company expect to report in H2 2022 a low-to-mid double-digit growth in revenues (on a like for like – HoH – current FX basis).
