Cybersecurity Incident and Business Impact

As announced on December 2, 2024, Fourlis group experienced a malicious external cybersecurity attack on November 27, temporarily affecting digital systems across all countries of operation. The management immediately activated its incident response plan and, in collaboration with specialized partners, successfully contained and resolved the issue. All actions of the impact mitigation procedures and the obligations of notification and cooperation with the competent supervisory authorities, as provided for by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Law 4624/2019. The temporary unavailability of some data affected by the incident was restored almost immediately, while the technical report (Forensic) did not prove the leakage of personal data.

The incident caused temporary disruptions in store replenishment primarily impacting the Home Furnishings segment (IKEA stores), and ecommerce operations, during December 2024 through February 2025.

The incident is estimated to have impacted group sales by approximately €15 million, concentrated in December of 2024. However, the group's swift cost adaptation and operational agility enabled it to absorb the impact and still exceed its profitability guidance for the year.

As of March 2025, all systems and data have been fully restored, and trading has returned to normal operating performance. The group continues to invest in cybersecurity and IT resilience, while maintaining its focus on sustainable growth and operational excellence.

Dimitris Valachis, Chief Executive Officer of Fourlis group, commented: "2024 was a pivotal year for Fourlis group. We delivered on our strategic priorities, strengthened our financial position, and exceeded our profitability guidance, significantly improving the profitability of our continuing retail business. Across all business units, we made tangible progress — from the successful expansion of IKEA and INTERSPORT, to our entry into the athleisure segment through the Foot Locker partnership, and the continued growth of Holland & Barrett in the health and wellness space. The deconsolidation of Trade Estates marks a significant strategic step, reinforcing our group's financial flexibility.

In late 2024, we faced a cybersecurity incident that temporarily disrupted operations. However, we responded swiftly and effectively, protecting data, restoring systems, and safeguarding the Group's profitability, as we managed to absorb the effect and still exceed our profit guidance for the year. Looking ahead, we will continue to evolve and innovate to meet the needs of modern consumers, while building on our strengths to shape the next chapter of retail in our region."
