This presentation contains certain "forward-looking statements". These statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to risks, uncertainty and changes in circumstances, which may cause actual results, performance, financial condition or achievements to differ materially from anticipated results, performance, financial condition or achievements. All statements contained herein that are not clearly historical in nature are forward-looking and the words "anticipate," "believe," "expect," "estimate," "plan," and similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have no intention and are under no obligation to update or alter (and expressly disclaim any such intention or obligation to do so) our forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by law. The forward-looking statements in this presentation include statements addressing our future financial condition and operating results. Examples of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements include, among others, business, economic, competitive and regulatory risks, such as conditions affecting demand for products, particularly in the automotive industries; competition and pricing pressure; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices; natural disasters and political, economic and military instability in countries in which we operate; developments in the credit markets; future goodwill impairment; compliance with current and future environmental and other laws and regulations; and the possible effects on us of changes in tax laws, tax treaties and other legislation. More detailed information about these and other factors is set forth in the 2023 Kongsberg Automotive Annual Report and the Kongsberg Automotive Quarterly Reports.
Where we have used non-IFRS financial measures, reconciliations to the most comparable IFRS measure are provided, along with a disclosure on the usefulness of the non-IFRS measure, in this presentation.

The impact of declining volumes on Q2 2024 EBIT was mitigated by favorable product mix and lower warranty expenses than in Q2 2023, but more than offset by benefits from operational improvements in variable costs and other operational costs.
Last year's Q2 EBIT was positively impacted by the one-time customer reimbursement while the operational improvements in Q2 2024 were partially offset by unfavorable product mix.
EBIT for Q2 2023 was primarily impacted by the impairment on non-current assets of former Driveline business (excluding EAC) of MEUR 10.6 (non-core business). In Q2 2024 operating result benefitted from the impairment of assets and onerous contracts provisions recorded in 2023.

Despite decline in revenues by MEUR 16.7, KA's profitability improved by MEUR 18.9. For more information, please refer to slide 20.
With no realized foreign exchange losses incurred in Q2 2024, unrealized foreign currency gains were significantly higher by MEUR 3.4 compared to Q2 2023 and amounted to MEUR 3.5, which was mainly driven by Norwegian Kroner being less weakening in Q2 2024 than in Q2 2023.
Due to the accelerated repayment of the old Euro bond notes, the unamortized capitalized arrangement fees of MEUR 1.0 were expensed in Q2 2024
Income tax expenses in Q2 2024 included withholding taxes at MEUR 1.4 whereas in Q2 2023 deferred tax assets could not be not recognized.
