## <span id="page-10-0"></span>**Management Report**

The Group's unaudited consolidated net turnover for the third quarter (Q3) of the 2024/2025 financial year (FY) amounted to EUR 5.35 million, showing a 21% decrease compared to the same period in FY 2023/2024.

The turnover of the North America and Latin America region amounted to 54%, or EUR 2.9 million. Compared to the same quarter of the previous financial year, the turnover has decreased by 28%.

The European region accounted for 43% of the turnover, or EUR 2.3 million, which is 9% less than in the third quarter of the previous financial year. Turnover in the Asia, Africa, and Middle East region has decreased by 33% compared to the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year, accounting for 3% of the total quarterly turnover (or EUR 176 thousand).

As noted in previous reports, fluctuations in quarterly turnover are influenced by the completion of individual projects and the relatively lower sales in the previous quarter. Projects can vary in scope and complexity, and their execution is influenced by both the lead times for material procurement and the duration of the production process. As a result, the dispatch of goods and the recognition of revenue often take place only in subsequent quarters.

As part of its ongoing efforts to enhance national expertise and strengthen the capabilities of the National Armed Forces, the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Latvia has signed three Research and Development (R&D) contracts aimed at advancing counter-unmanned aerial vehicle capabilities. The contracts have been concluded with several Latvian technology companies, including SAF Tehnika.

#### **Comparative charts of Q3 sales volumes by regions:**

In the reporting quarter, the Group's products were sold in 67 countries.

For the nine months of the 2024/2025 financial year, the Group's unaudited consolidated turnover was EUR 20.93 million, a 1% decline from the previous financial year's revenue.

Over a 9-month period, revenues in North and Latin Americas represented 57% of the total turnover of the Group and amounted to EUR 11.83 million, thus showing a 6% decrease compared to the result of the nine months of the previous financial year. 39% of the total turnover comes from revenues generated in European countries, which increased by 15% against 9 months of the previous year and amount to EUR 8.16 million. Revenue from the Asia, Africa and the Middle East region declined by 37%, accounting for 4% of the Group's total turnover.

The Group's expenses did not exceed the amounts planned in the budget. The Group continues to invest in new product development and product enhancements, as well as in sales promotion across both existing and new market segments.

The Group closed the third quarter of the 2024/2025 financial year with a loss of EUR 946 thousand (unaudited). In Q3 of the previous year, the Group recorded a loss of EUR 942 thousand.

The consolidated unaudited result for the first nine months of the 2024/2025 financial year is a profit of EUR 93 thousand. Over the first nine months of the 2023/2024 financial year, the Group incurred a loss of EUR 1.89 million.

The Group's operations were affected by the global shortage of various electronic components. During the previous period, the company accumulated material reserves to be able to fulfill the majority of orders, ensuring short, or customer-expected, delivery times. Delivery times have continued to improve recently.

The Group's net cash flow for the nine months of the financial year is EUR 3.4 million. The Group's cash balance in the balance sheet at the end of the period was EUR 5.6 million.

To ensure liquidity, the Parent Company has a Credit Line Agreement with Luminor Bank AS for a total amount of EUR 4.95 million, which had not been utilized at the end of the reporting period.

In Q3 of the 2024/2025 financial year, EUR 176 thousand were invested in the purchase of fixed assets – primarily to support production and testing processes, as well as for the acquisition of office equipment.

#### **Market Overview**

During the quarter, there were no major changes in the microwave radio market. We believe that significant and rapid changes in the microwave radio market are not expected in the near future. SAF Tehnika continues to foster close collaboration with its clients and partners to proactively identify and mitigate potential risks, as well as to assess new opportunities for development. The Group continuously monitors changes in the global trade environment, including potential tariff adjustments in the United States.

The Group has no clients or suppliers in the region affected by armed conflict (Russia, Ukraine, or Belarus); therefore, no impact on order volumes has been observed.

#### **Guidelines**

SAF Tehnika is a company with extensive experience and expertise in the development and production of microwave links.

Although the hostilities in Ukraine do not directly impact the Group's operations, overall uncertainty in the business environment persists. The Group continues to monitor potential cost increase forecasts and evaluate associated risks. The company regularly reviews procurement volumes and timelines, ensuring sufficient material reserves to fulfill most orders within standard lead times. This applies to all SAF product families: microwave links, spectrum analyzers, and Internet of Things (IoT).

Even with the modernization of the telecommunications market toward fiber optic communications, there is still a strong demand for radio systems that provide enhanced data rates. Therefore, the Group continues to actively research the market and identify key issues in order to propose necessary product modifications and develop prototypes for next-generation technologies. At the same time, the Group develops IoT solutions for both business and consumer segments,

diversifying its product line, creating higher added value for SAF Tehnika product offerings, and increasing the Group's revenue.

The company's goal is to stabilize turnover to ensure a positive net result in the long term. The Board of SAF Tehnika remains cautious and refrains from providing specific sales and performance forecasts.

As of March 31, 2025, the Group had 264 employees (264 employees as of March 31, 2024).
