NANTERRE (FRANCE) **JUNE 11, 2025**

## **FORVIA FURTHER IMPROVES ITS DEBT PROFILE BY USING PROCEEDS FROM AN ADDITIONAL ISSUANCE OF SENIOR NOTES DUE 2030 AND AVAILABLE CASH TO REPURCHASE EXISTING 2027 SUSTAINABILITY-LINKED NOTES**

- FORVIA issued an additional €250 million of additional Senior Notes due 2030
- Proceeds from the issuance and available cash used to fund the repurchase of €300 million of FORVIA's outstanding 2.750% Sustainability-Linked Notes due February 2027 (the "**2027 Sustainability-Linked Notes**") in a cash tender offer (the "**Tender Offer**")

FORVIA has successfully closed its offering of €250 million in aggregate principal amount of additional senior notes due 2030 (the "**New Notes**"), which will be consolidated and form a single series with the existing €750 million senior notes due 2030 issued on 24 March 2025 after the expiry of a 40-day distribution compliance period.

The associated Tender Offer for the repurchase of FORVIA's existing 2027 Sustainability-Linked Notes also settled today. With the success of the Tender Offer, and using available cash, FORVIA decided to increase the maximum amount of the 2027 Sustainability-Linked Notes accepted for tender in the Tender Offer to, and has accepted the tenders of, €300 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Sustainability-Linked Notes, which have now been cancelled.

This Tender Offer reduces the outstanding amount of the 2027 Sustainability-Linked Notes, which now stands at €900 million against the initial €1.2 billion issuance.
