Highlights of 1Q25

The Altri Group achieved total revenues of € 203.6 M in 1Q25, a decrease of 8.6% when compared to 1Q24. This variation is explained by a lower average pulp price level, as a result of the less favorable conditions already felt on the global market in the second half of 2024. However, the situation has improved compared to the end of 2024, with a recovery in volumes and a reversal in the price trend. Total revenues in 1Q25 rose 9.7% compared to the previous quarter.

The Altri Group recorded an EBITDA of € 29.4 M in 1Q25, a reduction of 41.2% when compared to 1Q24. The EBITDA margin reached 14.5%, which compares with 22.5% reported in 1Q24. This decrease is due not only to less favorable market conditions, but also to a more challenging context at Celbi in 1Q25 related to the temporary incident at the cogeneration turbine and also the ramp-up of the conversion of BHKP to dissolving pulp (DP) at Biotek. We believe that the restart of normal turbine operation at Celbi at the end of March and a sequential increase in DP production levels at Biotek will result in the normalization of operational efficiency levels.

The 1Q25 brought greater dynamism to the global Pulp sector, after a slowdown during the second half of 2024, with the Chinese region being the main responsible for this reactivation. Global demand data has improved and, as a result, price increases for BHKP pulp have been announced for the first few months of 2025. This positive data for the industry should contribute to a general improvement in the sector from the second quarter of 2025. However, the change in US trade policy, with the announcement of tariffs on a large part of imports in April, in which China is one of the main targets, has led to strong economic uncertainty in the short term. Faced with this uncertainty and potential negative effects on the Chinese economy, we have seen a slowdown in demand for pulp in China during 2Q25.

In the dissolving pulp (DP) segment, the start of 2025 was more cautious, with an increase in supply from some producers, who changed their production capacity from paper pulp to DP, and a cooling of demand, which comes from some expectation that the Asian textile sector will be more affected by new US policies related to the import of goods.

The Altri Group continues to develop various growth and diversification projects in line with its strategic plan. Of the projects in the execution phase, we highlight the project for the recovery and valorization of acetic acid and furfural from renewable sources, at Caima, to be completed in the beginning of 2026 as well as the migration of the total production of Paper Pulp (BHKP) to Dissolving Pulp (DP) until the end of 2026 in the industrial unit Biotek.

Also during the first quarter, the Altri Group received the favorable Environmental Impact Statement (DIA) for the Gama project in Galicia, an important step in the environmental processing of the project.

In May 2025, the Altri Group completed the acquisition of Greenalia Forest, one of the main companies in the Galician forestry sector, and Greenalia Logistics, taking an important strategic step in consolidating its presence in Galicia.

Message from the CEO

The year 2025 began under the sign of uncertainty, motivated by the tariff policy imposed by the US administration, with successive advances and setbacks. This sentiment affects the entire value chain in the various markets, with special emphasis on the Chinese market, a relevant market for the cellulosic fiber industry.

In the first quarter, we saw an increase in demand for cellulosic fibers on the market, with hardwood pulp, the most important for the Group, growing close to 5% and stocks in ports normalizing. Despite announcements of increases in international markets, average prices in the first quarter of the year are still 5% lower than in the first quarter of 2024. This factor, combined with a slightly lower level of production and volumes sold, resulted in a reduction in the Group's total revenues of 8.6% compared to the first three months of last year.

We recorded a reduction of 8 percentage points in the operational margin, mainly due to the greater instability resulting from the turbine incident at Celbi, where start-up only took place at the end of March, and the ramp-up of dissolving fiber production at Biotek.

Despite the margin reduction, the Group has been implementing a number of projects that, while allowing for efficiency and environmental gains, prepare the Group to explore new growth options, while keeping net debt at industry benchmark levels (1.1x LTM EBITDA at the end of March 2025).

At the beginning of 2026, Altri will conclude the project for the recovery and valorization of acetic acid and furfural from renewable sources at Caima, allowing for the introduction on the market of a new high value-added product. Also, the migration of paper fiber production to dissolving fibers at Biotek, which we anticipate will be completed by the end of 2026, will allow us to capture more value by increasing the production of fibers fundamentally aimed at the textile industry.

The Group's development and the creation of new avenues for growth go hand in hand with an absolute concern for sustainability and marked progress in our 2030 commitment. It is with satisfaction that Altri is now a world reference in the industry, having been distinguished as one of the 5 ESG Top Rated Companies in the sector by Sustainalytics, one of the market's leading rating agencies.

Operating and Financial Performance

Pulp Market

Global demand for pulp during the first three months of 2025 recorded an increase of 4.8% vs the same period of the previous year, while the evolution of demand for Hardwood pulp increased 4.5% over the same period of the previous year, according to the PPPC (World Chemical Market Pulp Global 100 Report – March 2025).

In regional terms, and focusing on the Hardwood pulp market, the most relevant for the Altri Group, we positively highlight China (+8.8%), Rest of Asia/Africa (+9.4%) and Eastern Europe (+9.8%). Western Europe, after a double-digit growth in 2024, showed a reduction of around 2.6% in the first quarter of 2025, when compared with the same period of 2024.

One of the relevant factors for assessing the balance of pulp demand and supply in the European market is the level of stock in European ports. Following the normalization of value chains in the pulp and paper industry during 2024, we have seen a stabilization of inventory levels in line with historical averages, between 1.4M and 1.5M tons, since the summer of 2024.

During 1Q25, the average price of the PIX pulp index (BHKP) in Europe fell by 2% in US\$ (and did not change in Euros) compared to the previous quarter, reaching an average value of US\$ 1,070/ton and ending the first quarter of 2025 at US\$ 1,160/ton. The year-on-year comparison with 1Q24 reflects a lower price of around 5% in US\$ and 1% in Euros.

We saw a year of increased volatility in 2024, marked by a cycle that took place practically in the space of 12 months. After the start of 2024 with list prices for BHKP pulp in Europe very close to USD 1,000/ton, we reached a maximum of USD 1,440/ton in June, only to end the year back at USD 1,000/ton. At the beginning of 2025, we again saw a recovery in the price level.

These movements have been closely correlated with the evolution of global pulp demand, particularly in Asia, where much of the demand is concentrated. The increase in capacity in the sector in the middle of 2024 may have been an additional factor in explaining the less favorable evolution of prices during the second half of 2024. We believe that this additional capacity will currently be fully placed on the market.

Global demand for dissolving pulp (DP) rose by 1.0% in the first two months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, according to Numera Analytics (Global DP Demand Report - February 2025). It should be noted that DP is mainly used in textiles and mainly in Asia, a region which absorbs around 85% of demand.

After a price increase with reduced volatility during 2024, the highest DP price level since 4Q22 was reached at the end of the year. This evolution is a consequence of the high operational utilization rates of viscose and lyocell producers, leading to an increase in demand for DP, their main raw material. At the beginning of 2025, we saw some cooling of this demand, in anticipation of the possible impact of more restrictive US trade policies on the Asian textile sector.

Economic and Financial Performance

During 1Q25, total revenues of Altri Group amounted to € 203.6 M, a decrease of 8.6% vs 1Q24 and an increase of 9.7% vs. 4Q24. In 1Q25, EBITDA reached € 29.4 M, a value 41.2% lower than in the same period of the previous year and 23.1% lower than 4Q24. EBITDA margin of 14.5% in 1Q25 is 8.0 p.p. lower than 1Q24. When compared to 4Q24, there is a decrease of 6.1 p.p. in the EBITDA margin. The less positive evolution in terms of EBITDA is due, in addition to the lower price (also impacted by the devaluation of the USD), to some instability resulting from Celbi's turbine incident (start-up took place at the end of March), as well as the ramp-up of dissolving pulp at Biotek.

The Altri Group's financial results reached € -7.9 M in 1Q25, which compares with € -4.7 M in 1Q24 and with € -2.8 M in the previous quarter. The deterioration in financial results is essentially due to a less favorable trend in exchange rate differences.

The Net Profit of the Altri Group in 1Q25 reached € 7.6 M, a decrease of 64.7% when compared with the same period of the previous year. Compared to 4Q24, net profit decreased by 56.8%.

Sustainability

The Altri Group has defined four strategic development vectors that focus its activity and its future investments:

  • To value the people
  • Develop and enhance the forest
  • Focus on operational excellence and technological innovation
  • Affirming sustainability as a competitiveness factor

Based on this strategy, the main sustainability objectives for the Group were identified, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations, and with the expectations of our stakeholders, resulting in the definition of the "2030 Commitment" of the Altri Group. Every quarter we see progress towards a more sustainable Group, of which we highlight:

positive environmental, social and governance impact. This recognition reinforces Altri's commitment to affirming sustainability as a factor of competitiveness and to investing in operational excellence and technological innovation.

Perspectives

The start of 2025 confirmed a revival in demand levels in the global pulp market. After stagnating in the final months of 2024, the Asian market, particularly China, showed an upward trend in demand, despite less positive data in Europe. Underpinning this more positive trend are factors such as a more balanced market on the supply side, due to several planned stoppages in Latin America, the effect of the bankruptcy of the Chinese company Chenming (pulp for market and paper), the price gap for different types of pulp, motivating the substitution of softwood for hardwood, and some restocking, although modest. However, the announcement in April by the US to apply tariffs to a large part of imports, with a significant impact on China, has led to strong economic uncertainty in the region in the short term. Faced with this uncertainty and potential negative effects on the Chinese economy, we have seen a slowdown in demand for pulp in China during 2Q25.

The year 2025 got off to a positive start, with announcements of three consecutive increases in BHKP (Hardwood) pulp prices in China and Europe during the first three months of the year. Despite these announcements, the average price of the PIX, the global benchmark for pulp prices, fell by 2% in 1Q25 compared to the previous quarter, with the list price of BHKP pulp in Europe at the end of March ending at US\$ 1,220/ton. Given the situation of greater global economic uncertainty, particularly in China, we believe that the price level of BHKP pulp will be under pressure in the short term. Clarification of the final situation regarding the tariffs to be applied by the US should help to restore a context that we continue to believe will be positive for the sector over the next three years.

The Altri Group expects to maintain its main variable costs in 2025, despite an extraordinary increase in 1Q25, which will normalize over the next few quarters. The start-up of the cogeneration turbine at Celbi and the progressive increase in efficiency in DP production at Biotek should contribute to an improvement in the Group's efficiency during 2025. Despite the numerous operational challenges, we are confident that we can continue to deliver a very high level of operational efficiency.

As a pillar of its strategy, the Altri Group continues to develop various diversification and growth projects. The project to fully migrate production from paper pulp (BHKP) to dissolving pulp (DP) by the end of 2026 at Biotek will become more visible in 2025, with a total DP volume of around 50,000 tons for the year. In addition, the project to recover and valorize acetic acid and furfural from renewable sources at Caima should be completed in early 2026, with the sale of a new high valueadded product. The Group continues to work towards growing its product portfolio in line with its strategic orientation, particularly in the area of sustainable textile fibers.

O Conselho de Administração The Chartered Accountant The Board of Directors

1. INTRODUCTORY NOTE

Altri, SGPS, S.A. ('Altri' or 'the Company') is a public company incorporated on 1 February 2005, whose head office is located at Rua Manuel Pinto de Azevedo, 818, in Oporto, and its main activity involves managing shareholdings, while its shares are listed at Euronext Lisbon.

RELATÓRIO DO CONSELHO DE ADMINISTRAÇÃO

Altri is dedicated to managing shareholdings primarily in the industrial sector, as the parent company of the group of companies shown under Note 4 and referred to as the Altri Group. There is no other company above it that includes these consolidated financial statements. The Altri Group's current activities focus on producing cellulosic fibers at three production plants. Faced with this reality, the Board of Directors considers, with reference to 31 March 2025, there is only one business segment, namely the production and commercialization of cellulosic fibers (Note 16).

The Altri Group's condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Euro, in amounts rounded off to the nearest Euro. This is the currency used by the Group in its operations and, as such, is deemed to be the functional currency. The exchange rates used for the conversion of balances and transactions in currencies other than Euro to Euro were as follows:

31.03.2025
Closing of the period Average of the period
included in the
financial statements
Swiss Francs 0.95336 0.94576

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

a) Material Accounting Policies

The condensed consolidated financial statements, for the three months period ended on 31 March 2025, were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting and include the condensed consolidated statement of financial position, the condensed consolidated income statement, the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows, as well as, the selected explanatory notes. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information required to be published on the annual financial statements, and should, therefore, be read together with the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Altri Group for the financial year ended 31 December 2024.

The accounting policies adopted for preparation of the attached condensed consolidated financial statements were consistently applied during the periods being compared.

b) Basis of Presentation

The Board of Directors assessed the capacity of the Company, its subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates to operate on a going concern basis, based on the entire relevant information, facts and circumstances, of financial, commercial or other nature, including events subsequent to the condensed consolidated financial statements' reference date, as available regarding the future. As a result of the assessment conducted, the Board of Directors concluded that it has adequate resources to keep up its operations, which it does not intend to cease in the short term. Therefore, it was considered appropriate to use the going concern basis in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The attached condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared based on the accounting books and records of the company, its subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, adjusted in the consolidation process, in the assumption of going concern basis. When preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Group used historical cost as its basis, modified, where applicable, via fair value measurement of i) biological assets measured at fair value; ii) financial assets measured at fair value; and iii) certain financial instruments, which are recorded at their fair value.

RELATÓRIO DO CONSELHO DE ADMINISTRAÇÃO

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates, assumptions and critical judgements in the process of determining accounting policies to be adopted by the Group, with significant impact on the book value of assets and liabilities, as well as on income and expenses for the period. Although these estimates are based on the best experience of the Board of Directors and on its best expectations regarding current and future events and actions, current and future results may differ from these estimates. Areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas with significant assumptions and estimates are disclosed in Note 2.4 of the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the financial year ended 31 December 2024.

3. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND COMPARABILITY OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

During the period, there were no changes in accounting policies. Likewise, no material errors were recognised in relation to previous financial years.

New accounting standards and their impact in these condensed consolidated financial statements:

Up to the date of approval of these condensed consolidated financial statements, the European Union endorsed the following accounting standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions, mandatorily applied to the financial year beginning on 1 January 2025:

Amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange
Rates: Lack of Exchangeability
01 Jan 2025

The adoption of these standards and interpretations had no relevant impact on the Group's condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of the date of approval of these condensed consolidated financial statements, no new accounting standards or interpretations have been endorsed by the European Union and have mandatory application for future financial years.

The following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions were not endorsed by the European Union at the date of the approval of the condensed consolidated financial statements:

Effective date

IFRS 19 - Subsidiaries without public accountability: Disclosures 01 Jan 2027

RELATÓRIO DO CONSELHO DE ADMINISTRAÇÃO

These standards have not yet been endorsed by the European Union and, as such, the Group did not proceed with the early adoption of any of these standards in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended 31 March 2025, as their application is not mandatory, and is in the process of examining the expected effects of these standards.

5. CHANGES IN THE CONSOLIDATION PERIMETER

During the three months period ended 31 March 2025 there were no changes in the consolidation perimeter compared to 31 December 2024 (Note 4).

6. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Thus, the Group's tax returns since 2021 may still be subject to review.

Altri's Board of Directors considers that any corrections resulting from reviews/inspections by the tax authorities to those tax returns will not have a material effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements as at 31 March 2025.

As at 31 March 2025 and 31 December 2024, Altri and its subsidiaries had in force derivative financial instrument contracts associated with hedging changes of interest rate, exchange rate, pulp price, energy price and trading derivative financial instruments associated with exchange rate. The Altri Group also had in place a long-term renewable energy purchase agreement (VPPA - Virtual Power Purchase Agreement), in the form of a Contract for Differences (CfD), as part of the strategy to hedge against fluctuations in the longterm purchase price of energy. All these instruments are recorded at fair value, based on assessments carried out by specialized external entities, which were subject to internal validation.

Altri Group mainly uses derivatives to hedge cash flows associated with operations generated by their activity.

17. RELATED PARTIES

Altri Group subsidiary companies have relationships with each other that qualify as transactions with related parties, which were carried out at market prices.

In the consolidation procedures, transactions between companies included in the consolidation using the full consolidation method are eliminated, since the consolidated financial statements show information on the holder and its subsidiaries as if it were a single company, and so they are not disclosed under this note.

During the three months periods ended 31 March 2025 and 2024, there were no transactions with the Board of Directors, nor were they granted loans.

As at 31 March 2025 and 2024, balances and transactions with related entities can be summarised as follows:
