Management Report

CEO comment

We started the year 2025 with a streamlined and leaner organization while also taking on more responsibility for decision making closer to our customers in pursuit of becoming a simpler, faster and more efficient company.

In March we celebrated the 30th anniversary of the first GSM call in Lithuania. Who would have thought then that in 30 years' time mobile devices will be used not only for mobile voice but also for video and data communication, that the Internet will evolve from dial-up connection to a truly mobile Internet, with country-wide availability and using our fast 5G network?

Our technological leadership once again was officially confirmed by the Communications Regulatory Authority report showing that the average mobile data download speed in Telia Lietuva's network remains the highest in the country and amounted to 250 Mbps during 2024. In addition, our customers are the heaviest mobile data users in Lithuania – in 2024 they accounted for 38 per cent of the total volume.

30 years ago, we had only linear or cable television. Now we have Telia Play on our smart devices and smart TV sets that, as of 2025, offers our customers exclusive packages with Netflix and invites them to indulge in top quality international content while staying at home.

For travelers outside the European Union, we offer attractive and flexible data roaming packages with (up to 50 per cent) reduced

prices.

From beginning of 2025, following new regulatory requirements, all Lithuanian mobile operators have implemented the registration of new pre-paid SIM cards. Naturally, this has had a negative impact on intake of new pre-paid subscriptions, while the number of post–paid subscriptions continued to grow – during January-March of 2025 it went up by 19

thousand.

Revenue from services for the first quarter of 2025 was up by 3.3 per cent compared with the same quarter a year ago, while equipment sales dropped by almost 10 per cent. The growth was recorded in all main areas – mobile communication, broadband Internet, TV and IT

services.

The first three months of 2025 were marked with improved profitability. Adjusted EBITDA margin (excluding non-recurring items) exceeded the 40 per cent threshold and net profit went up by 24.4 per cent compared with the same quarter a year ago.

We are also happy to report that Telia Lietuva was recognized for the best customer care among telecommunication companies in Lithuania according to the public opinion poll conducted by Shopper Quality.

As a responsible telecommunication operator, we invited our customers to take part in a 30 day challenge, encouraging them to spent one hour a day without their mobile device. Research shows that 96 per cent of the Lithuanian population start their day by checking their phones and 90 per cent end it locked into their screen. Tongue-in-cheek, we encourage everyone to put away their mobilephone into our Innovative Communication Cardboard Box and communicate with their friends and family live – thus rediscovering each other again.

On a more serious note, our support to Ukraine continues. In 2025, we continue with special tariffs for calls as well as mobile data services between Lithuania and Ukraine. Besides, 90 per cent of the Company's employees, who participated in an internal survey, voted for the donation of the majority of this year's corporate entertainment budget to Ukraine. Thus EUR 100 thousand was donated to Ukraine during the third nationwide support campaign 'Radarom', launching a wave of other donations from citizens and other companies.

The Company's Board proposed to the Annual General Meeting to approve the pay-out of EUR 0.11 dividend per share for the year 2024.

Over the last 12 months, the total number of broadband Internet connections decreased by 8 thousand.

2 Investments in subsidiaries and associates

The interim financial statements for the three months' period ended 31 March 2025 are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Accounting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the European Union (EU), includes IAS 34. In all material respects, the same accounting principles have been followed as in the preparation of financial statements for 2024.

The financial statements have been prepared mainly under the historical cost convention.

The presentation currency is euro. The financial statements have been presented in thousands of euro, unless indicated otherwise.

These financial statements for the period ended 31 March 2025 are not audited. Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024 are audited by the external auditor KPMG Baltics, UAB.

As at 1 January 2009, amendments to Law on Corporate Profit Tax came into effect which provides tax relief for investments in new technologies. As a result, the Company's calculated profit tax relief amounts for 2025 to EUR 0.4 million (2024: EUR 1.2 million). Investments in new technologies are capitalised as property, plant and equipment, and their depreciation is deductible for tax purposes, therefore, the tax relief does not create any deferred tax liability.

The tax authorities may at any time inspect the books and records within 3 years from the end of the year when tax declaration was submitted and may impose additional tax assessments with penalty interest and penalties.

The Company's management is not aware of any circumstances, which may give rise to a potential material liability in this respect.

The Company leases land for the construction of mobile stations. Upon expiry of the lease term the mobile stations should be disassembled and land restored so that it could be returned to the land owner in a condition it was before the lease. Similarly, the Company has telecommunication equipment installed in the premises or on the buildings leased from third parties. This equipment will have to be disassembled when the lease agreement expires.

To cover these estimated future costs, assets retirement obligation has been recognized. The Company expects that assets retirement obligation will be realized later than after one year. Therefore, the whole amount of assets retirement obligation has been classified as non-current provision for other liabilities and charges.
