Revenue decreased in Q1 2025 to EUR 2.1 million (Q1 2024: EUR 10.1 million) mainly due to less components and lower material expenses in most third party projects. The directly attributable costs related to these projects decreased to EUR 3.9 million (Q1 2024: EUR 9.9 million).
The average number of employees counted 150 employees (FTE) in the first quarter of 2025 (31.12.2024: 113 employees (FTE)).

Hydrogen is a central component of the strategy for achieving the EU climate targets for 2030 and is particularly relevant for Germany as an industrial hub. Within this framework, by 2030 at least 40 GW of electrolysis capacity is to be available in the EU and up to 10 million tons of green hydrogen are to be produced annually in the EU. The investment volume for this is estimated at around EUR 300 billion and will be supported to a considerable extent by state subsidies. In Germany, 10 GW of electrolysis capacity is to be created by 2030 – subsidies amounting to EUR 9 billion have already been pledged for hydrogen technology. Green hydrogen is of particular importance here: it contributes to the decarbonization of the economy and the decreasing costs for hydrogen electrolysis plants due to economies of scale make hydrogen an attractive option for industry, infrastructure and mobilitiy.
The Groups unique selling proposition to provide clean hydrogen at any time and any place enters into the next phase. After scaling supporting functions and growth of team size and quality we successfully built decentralized third party hydrogen production. In 2025 H2APEX redefined its strategy by expanding the own hydrogen production and strengthens the Groups activities at Germany's most important hydrogen industry hub. In July 2024 the investment with a total amount of EUR 213 million for our 100 MW H2ERO plant and the

acquisition of 100% of shares of HH2E Werk Lubmin GmbH, Lubmin enabled H2APEX to inforce the group's strategy. Management Board is concentrated on sustainable improvement of market capitalisation by increasing high margin hydrogen production, distribution and storage. Following the acquisition of HH2E's project, H2APEX will construct an additional 100 MW plant in its first phase, also set for completion by 2028, with a mid-term expansion to 1.000 MW.
For the current fiscal year 2025, the Group expects its growth course to continue and to aim revenue in a range between EUR 6 million to EUR 8 million. This development will be supported by revenues from the planning and construction of hydrogen plants for third-party companies, from the operation of hydrogen plants and from the sale of hydrogen storage tanks. The majority of the revenues expected in 2025 have already been contractually secured.
The EU funding approved in February 2024 for our 100 MW H2ERO plant, for which the company has applied for funding totaling EUR 167 million, confirms our leading position in the planning and construction of largescale plants. Further growth potential is in the EU's funding approval for the IPCEI hydrogen projects because these projects will require project developers such as H2APEX to implement them.
