2 STRATEGY OF THE TELEKOM SLOVENIJE GROUP FOR THE PERIOD 2024 TO 2028

2.1 Vision, mission, values

2.2 Summary of the Strategic Business Plan

The Strategic Business Plan of the Telekom Slovenije Group for the period 2024–2028 represents the core corporate document. Defined in that document through its mission, vision, values, business model and objectives is the Telekom Slovenije Group's future development.

That document is based on available data, taking into account regulatory restrictions and trends in the macroeconomic environment of the region in which the Telekom Slovenije Group operates. In drafting the document, we took into account analyses of operations and the market shares of comparable European operators, analyses of the competition, development expectations and trends in the telecommunication sector.

Connecting opportunities

The future development of the Telekom Slovenije Group is based on the vision 'Connecting opportunities'. We represent the infrastructure foundation of connected users and devices.

The development of the Telekom Slovenije Group in the coming period will rely on highly qualified employees, the most advanced technologies, and sustainable development and social responsibilities.

The Group's future operations will focus on three strategic pillars:

  • We will record additional growth in revenues and market shares on telecommunications markets in Slovenia and abroad. Special emphasis will be given to making better use of the existing infrastructure.
  • As a reliable provider of critical infrastructure and the digitalisation of services, we plan the highest growth in the ICT segment and digital services. We will increase the value of services through the inclusion of cyber security solutions.
  • We will improve operational efficiency through the continued digitalisation of operations, the reduction of costs and the improved efficiency of investing activities.

Sustainable development

We include the principles of sustainability in our operations, products, services and content. We ensure the highest coverage through broadband access and advanced digital services. We responsibly accept our role in the adaptation to and mitigation of climate change, in part by reducing our carbon footprint, through energy efficiency and the use of cleaner energy sources. Together with our partners, we are promoting the transformation to a carbon-neutral and digitally connected Slovenia with a comprehensive range of solutions for the further development of smart cities, businesses and communities. Through our activities, we are bridging the digital divide and striving for an inclusive, healthy and safe society.

Composition of the Telekom Slovenije Group as at 30 June 2024

The foundation's funds are contributed voluntarily by the employees of Slovenian Telekom Slovenije Group companies.

3.2 Operating highlights

The Telekom Slovenije Group achieved the following in the period January to June 2024:

  • As at 30 June 2024 the Telekom Slovenije Group had 4% or 73,020 more retail mobile users and 2% more fixed retail broadband connections than at 30 June 2023. Telekom Slovenije increased the number of fixed retail broadband connections by 8,401 and the number of retail mobile telephony users by 26,019. IPKO increased the number of retail mobile telephony users by 47,001.
  • The Telekom Slovenije Group generated EUR 350.1 million in operating revenues in the period January to June 2024, an increase of 4% relative to the same period in 2023.
  • Sales revenue totalled EUR 346.6 million, an increase of 4% relative to the same period in 2023. The Group recorded an increase in revenues on account of growth in the number of users and higher sales of IT merchandise and services, while revenues from financial, eHealth and insurance services and revenues on the wholesale market were also higher.
  • The Telekom Slovenije Group's operating expenses totalled EUR 311.3 million, an increase of 3% relative to the same period in 2023. As the unaudited report for the first quarter also explains, labour costs are higher, primarily as a result of a change in the method used for the interim calculation of business and work performance costs. The estimated proportionate annual amount is included in the results for the period January to June 2024. The aforementioned effects were recorded in previous years at the time of payment or in final annual results. We are thus normalising the effects of quarterly reporting.

3.6 Risk management

The material risks at the Telekom Slovenije Group and the measures to manage them are presented below.

Strategic risks

  • We operate on markets subject to stiff competition in terms of pricing, services and the infrastructure, regulatory requirements, and changing customer needs, expectations and price sensitivity. Users demand high-quality and more extensive services at lower prices.
  • Managing these risks requires a targeted market approach, constant innovation, the active monitoring of user expectations and market trends, and flexibility in supply. The emphasis is on ensuring the highest quality and the broadest set of competitive services for the most diverse user segments.
  • The optimisation and development of the product portfolio are ongoing processes. We follow user needs by updating our mobile and fixed packages, by offering innovations and by enriching programme content. We promote the migration of users to more current packages, and implement activities to maintain subscribers.
  • We promote the use of advanced mobile payment options (e.g. VALÚ and VALÚ Moneta).
  • Activities are under way to promote the sale of cyber security, IT support, eCare services and comprehensive ICT solutions tailored to the needs of business customers. Strategic partnerships for innovative solutions are being formed.
  • We are digitalising user processes (digital communications, simple IT architecture and technology).
  • A new cloud-based CRM system has been introduced to provide support to sales processes for business users and the needs of the wholesale market. The greater degree of integration with back-office systems that it provides paves the way for more advanced customer relationship management approaches and methods.
  • The wholesale portfolio is being adapted to regulatory obligations and market needs. International redundant connections have been established to increase availability and cyber security.
  • We manage risks in connection with securing investment projects and taking on major transactions by searching for new opportunities on domestic and foreign markets.

• In terms of media, we are searching for new business opportunities, developing new advertising products, and launching new sales campaigns and content-based projects.

Financial risks

  • We regularly monitor changes in the financial environment and the financial risks to which we are exposed in our operations.
  • Liquidity risk is controlled through the management and planning of cash flows, through the optimisation of working capital, by ensuring that financial debt has appropriate maturities, through the use of liquid assets within the Group, and through short-term credit lines that are regularly rolled over with respect to needs.
  • Credit risk management is achieved through credit assessment and the active monitoring of subscribers' transactions, and by setting maximum allowable exposures. We manage the risk of the deteriorating financial position of subscribers through credit insurance and by regularly monitoring the appropriateness thereof. Monitoring of the settlement of contractual obligations and the active recovery of past-due debt are elements of comprehensive credit risk management.
  • Interest rate risk is managed by ensuring that financial debt with fixed interest rates and/or hedged interest rates or with variable interest rates is properly structured.

Regulatory and compliance-related risks

  • In our operations, we comply with valid legislation, as well as decisions and aspects of sectoral regulations and other competent bodies. We manage regulatory risks through organisational and procedural measures, through constructive dialogue, by putting forth opinions, comments and suggestions in public consultations regarding drafts of general and specific laws issued by the regulator, and by taking legal action against issued regulatory decisions, whenever that is justified.
  • We process extensive collections of personal data relating to users, business partners, employees and other stakeholders. Much of our attention is therefore dedicated to the security and compliance of data processing, for existing services and for new services alike. Crucial in that regard is the application of

general EU regulations and national legislation (GDPR, Personal Data Protection Act, etc.), and sectoral legislation, in particular the Electronic Communications Act (ZEKom-2). Underlying laws have brought stricter regulation and increased the awareness of both users and the general public regarding the protection of data, while sectoral legislation sets out the obligations of the Company in individual areas of operations. We are monitoring activities aimed at the initial application of Regulation (EU) 2023/2854 governing data, which will enter into force in September 2025, and Regulation (EU) 2023/1543 on European Production Orders and European Preservation Orders for electronic evidence, which will enter into force in August 2026. We are also monitoring the drafting of other regulations in the area of personal data processing in Slovenia and the EU which have not yet entered into force but which will affect the provision of services in the future (e.g. the e-privacy regulation, which is being coordinated by EU bodies).

Operational risks

  • A great deal of attention is given to the management of ICT-related operational risks. We manage these risks through the control and development of subsystems, by improving operational efficiency and through employee training, all while supporting new business opportunities.
  • We continuously optimise the network and the target architecture, data centres and other technical infrastructure. The fixed and mobile network and systems are the continuous subject of general and technological upgrades. The capacity of equipment is being upgraded and the number of licences increased in line with growth in traffic. Multiple activities are in progress to replace communication equipment in the MPLS backbone network and to upgrade the mobile packet network.
  • Modern network technology (Software Defined Access or SDA), which already includes the zero trust principle of cyber security and advanced user identification and authorisation techniques, is being introduced at an accelerated rate in the internal business network.
  • As data security is a particular area of focus for us, we have begun to introduce a system of firewalls at the application level.
  • We are in the process of setting up a new disk array in Maribor, to be used for providing additional back-up copies of key data.
  • In the area of ICT security, the Company continuously develops systems for monitoring technologies and anomalies in the

infrastructure and ICT services.

  • We ensure business continuity through the regular assessment of the system and the testing of plans, and through upgrades of topology and the capacity of the infrastructure and ICT services, as required. Capacities are upgraded and increased through redundancy in those network segments in which increased functional and security-related risks have been identified. Security checks are performed and knowledge and data regarding threats are shared with European telecommunications operators and international cyber incident response teams. In place is a modern Cyber Security and Resilience Centre that functions 24/7. Risks are also managed through the implementation of the security policy, by identifying security threats and vulnerabilities, and by spreading the security culture. Investments are made continuously in the development of the capacities (people, processes and technologies) in order to improve resilience. The network (fixed and mobile) and systems are continuously upgraded and adapted to new threats with the aim of preventing abuse both in the national network and in roaming. We continuously improve ICT processes and mechanisms to ensure the smooth functioning of systems and applications, and modernise and make technological upgrades in line with trends and needs. A search is in progress in Kosovo for a new secondary location to ensure business continuity in the event of a catastrophe (disaster recovery).
  • The more rapid implementation of 5G technology by the competition in Kosovo could lead to the loss of the company's leading position on the market. Intensive preparations are under way for the introduction of 5G technology.
  • In Kosovo, IT risks due to the outdated business support system (BSS) architecture, non-standard development and the departure of staff due to the situation on the IT market are managed through the continuation of the BSS transformation programme, and additional training.
  • We manage risks in Kosovo due to interruptions in data traffic or system failure on the fibre optic cable by migrating from an aerial to an underground infrastructure.
  • We manage the risk of additional investments in Kosovo due to regulatory requirements and the demands of the business environment relating to the shift from an aerial to an underground infrastructure by coordinating with the Kosovo Energy Distribution Services (KEDS), local communities and other operators.
  • Telekom Slovenije faces risks associated with retaining employees, as it is difficult to recruit and retain staff with specific expertise due to labour market conditions and increased demand for professionally qualified personnel. The Company responds to these risks through targeted development and training programmes, by promoting the transfer of knowledge through mentors, by offering support to employees in the acquisition of new competences, by promoting cooperation and internal mobility, and by implementing other activities to motivate and retain employees. Due to the possibility of early disability retirements and other employee departures, we regularly implement measures to rejuvenate and maintain the flexibility of the employee structure. The Company actively works with various educational institutions, implements numerous activities to build the employer brand with the aim of attracting new and diverse candidates, and offers company scholarships.
  • We manage risks in connection with procurement processes through centralised procurement, a standardised procurement process and a supplier risk assessment methodology. To that end, compliance with contractual provisions is monitored. The Supplier Code of Conduct falls into this category of activities. We ensure regular communication with suppliers, continuously monitor the availability of goods and the timeliness of deliveries, draw up forecasts and order goods in advance, search for alternative suppliers and employ a strategy of two or more suppliers, where this is practical and economically justified. We also explore the possibility of additional suppliers, in particular for critical goods and services.
  • We are working closely with the competent ministry and VAPIC on issues relating to the risk associated with the payment of copyright fees and fees for the transmission of programmes via the cable network in Kosovo. Coordination has restarted on setting the level of the fees, as VAPIC, in common with all operators, has expressed the intention of signing an agreement.
  • Unfavourable weather conditions could result in a drop in salt production, which we would compensate for by drawing down inventories.

Risks relating to sustainability aspects of operations

  • We regularly monitor the impacts of the internal and external environments, and determine the impacts and the risk probability at the level of the Group on the basis of a materiality assessment.
  • Exposure to transition and physical risks is relatively low. Risk management measures relate primarily to ongoing efforts in the area of energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions in line with the strategy.
  • The digital and green transitions are built into the Group's strategy, which is based on excellent network quality, the very latest ICT services and solutions, and cleaner energy sources. All of this helps to mitigate climate and environmental change and adjust to their impacts, and enables energy savings to be made.
  • We regularly brief stakeholders and provide information regarding activities relating to socially responsible and sustainable conduct via communication campaigns and cooperation with prominent groups of stakeholders.

7 CONDENSED INTERIM ACCOUNTING REPORT OF THE TELEKOM SLOVENIJE GROUP AND TELEKOM SLOVENIJE, D.D., FOR THE PERIOD JANUARY TO JUNE 2024

The condensed financial statements of the Telekom Slovenije Group and the condensed financial statements of the controlling company Telekom Slovenije, d.d. for the reported period and the comparable period last year were compiled in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU and in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act (ZGD).

The condensed financial statements for the period ending 30 June 2024 were compiled in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, and must be read together with the financial statements and disclosures compiled for the 2023 financial year. The financial statements for the period January to June 2024 and for the comparative period January to June 2023 have not been audited, while the financial statements for the comparative period ending 31 December 2023 have been audited. The financial statements of the Group and Company were compiled under the assumption that both are going concerns. Operations are not seasonal.

Changes in accounting policies

The accounting policies used in the compilation of the interim condensed financial statements are the same as those applied in the compilation of the financial statements for the financial year ending 31 December 2023.

Use of significant estimates and judgements

The compilation of the financial statements requires of management certain estimates, assessments and assumptions that affect the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities as at the statement of financial position date and the amount of revenues and expenses in the period ending on the statement of financial position date. Future events and their impact cannot be determined with certainty. Accounting assessments therefore apply a judgement subject to change taking into account new events, experiences and additional information, and as the result of changes in the business environment. Actual values may vary from estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on a regular basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which estimates are revised, and in all future years affected by such revisions.

Functional and presentation currency

The reporting currency of the Telekom Slovenije Group is the euro, which is also the functional and presentation currency of the controlling company Telekom Slovenije. All financial information is presented in thousands of euros, unless otherwise stated.

Segment reporting

Segment reporting is based on the internal reporting system used by management in the management of operations. The criterion for segment reporting is the registered office where an activity is performed. The Telekom Slovenije Group thus presents its operations in the following two segments:

Slovenia: this segment includes all Group companies registered in Slovenia, and primarily activities in the areas of fixed and mobile telephony services, the construction and maintenance of the telecommunications network, multimedia and internet services, and content and digital TV. The segment comprises the following companies: Telekom Slovenije, GVO, Avtenta, TSmedia, TSinpo, Optic-Tel, Infratel and Soline, as well as the Heart Foundation, which organises and collects donations, grants and other monetary and non-monetary contributions to achieve the foundation's charitable mission.

Other countries: this segment comprises other Group companies, including IPKO, SIOL Zagreb, SIOL Sarajevo, SIOL Podgorica, SIOL Skopje, SIOL Belgrade and SIOL Prishtina. This segment's main activity is the provision of telecommunication services.

Inter-segment sales were executed according to market terms. Intra-group transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process, and included in eliminations and adjustments.

The Group does not disclose finance income and expenses by segment, as the Group's financing is centralised at the level of the controlling company. Disclosures regarding revenues generated with external customers are described by type in the note 'Revenue'.

Level 1: determination of fair value directly by referencing the official published price on an active market; Level 2: other models used to determine fair value based on assumptions and material impact on fair value in line with observed current market transactions with the same instruments either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: other models used to determine fair value based on assumptions and material impact on fair value that are not in line with observed current market transactions with the same instruments and investments.

The table below only includes information regarding classification to the fair value hierarchy for assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value and for which fair value is disclosed.

7.3 Financial instruments and risk management

The financial risks to which the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije are most exposed in their operations are credit risk, solvency risk and interest rate risk. Exposure to individual types of financial risks is assessed regularly. The appropriate measures to manage those risks are implemented based on an assessment of potential negative effects on financial stability.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss if a subscriber or contracting party fails to settle their obligations in full or fails to settle them at all.

TOTAL 234,584 246,335 240,621 262,713

The maximum exposure to credit risk equals the book value of financial assets.

The credit risk to which the Group and Telekom Slovenije are exposed derives primarily from default by subscribers (retail) and by operators (wholesale). The highest exposure to credit risk is seen in trade receivables. The latter amounted to EUR 185,779 thousand at the Group level as at 30 June 2024, an increase of EUR 6,048 thousand relative to the end of 2023. Telekom Slovenije's receivables make up the majority of the Group's trade and other receivables. Most receivables are unsecured. The Group's receivables are accounted for by a large number of individuals and legal entities. Its largest customers are operators, where turnover generally flows in both directions, which reduces net credit exposure. We assess that there is no significant concentration of credit risk vis-à-vis a particular customer or economic sector.

Procedures aimed at the management of receivables are implemented at Group companies and include the monitoring of business partners' credit ratings, the collateralisation of receivables, the monitoring of high-traffic subscribers and debt collection activities. Debt collection activities are carried out according to a valid reminder timetable and via specialised external service providers.

The Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije also monitor credit risk in other areas of operations.

Credit risk is low in terms of maintaining funds on business account and in the form of deposits due to a stable banking system and the high liquidity of banks. As a result, expected credit losses have not been recorded for cash and cash equivalents and deposits.

The Group is also exposed to credit risk associated with receivables from loans to employees, but that risk is assessed as low because they are repaid when employees' wages are paid. Expected credit losses have thus not been recorded for those loans.

Telekom Slovenije is exposed to credit risk arising from receivables from loans granted to subsidiaries. The Company regularly monitors and supervises the operations of its subsidiaries and the ability of those subsidiaries to repay loans. Expected credit losses have therefore not been recorded for those loans.

Solvency risk

The Telekom Slovenije Group regularly settles its obligations. The Group's solvency is the result of the active planning of cash flows, ensuring the appropriate maturities and the diversification of financial debt, the financing of Group companies, and the optimisation of working capital and cash. Liquidity risk at the Group level is managed by the controlling company, which plans and monitors subsidiaries' financing needs, and provides them the sources they require.

The majority of the Group's financial liabilities relate to three long-term syndicated loans in the total amount of EUR 224.8 million with associated interest, a long-term loan in the amount of EUR 97.8 million from the European Investment Bank with associated interest, and lease liabilities in the amount of EUR 84.9 million at the Group level and EUR 92.4 million at the Company level.

Telekom Slovenije did not have any loan instalments fall due for payment in the first half of 2024.

The Group and Telekom Slovenije have raised short-term funding from banks to ensure sufficient liquidity. The liquidity reserve in the form of revolving loans and an overdraft facility on the business account in the total amount of EUR 85 million was not drawn down as at 30 June 2024.

Interest rate risk

Interest-rate risk is the risk of the negative impact of a change in market interest rates on the Group's operations. The exposure of the Group and Company to interest rate risk as at 30 June 2024 derives from a potential change in the EURIBOR reference interest rate. We hedge exposure to interest rate risk through:

  • the raising of loans with a fixed interest rate; and
  • the conclusion of interest rate swaps (IRS).

The Company concluded an interest-rate swap (IRS) in February 2024 for the purpose of mitigating interest-rate risk. As at 30 June 2024, 54% of loans bore a fixed or hedged interest rate. Other liabilities derive from long-term loans bearing variable interest rates.

Capital management

The objectives of the Group's and Company's capital management are to ensure capital adequacy, and thus long-term liquidity and financial stability, which ensures the best possible credit rating for the financing of the Group's and Company's operations and further development, and consequently the maximisation of shareholder value.

The Group and Company monitor changes in equity using the debt-to-equity and equity-to-total assets ratios. The Group's net financial debt includes loans received and other financial liabilities, less current financial assets and cash and cash equivalents. When adopting decisions relating to capital management, the Group also follows the financial covenants under loan agreements.
