ORGANIZATIONAL AND LEGAL STRUCTURE OF THE DATAGROUP GROUP

DATAGROUP SE is the holding company of IT service provider DATAGROUP (hereinafter »DATAGROUP« refers to the DATAGROUP Group), which is operating throughout Germany. DATAGROUP SE essentially includes the entities listed in the graphic above.

The operating subsidiaries under the DATAGROUP SE umbrella are organized into two segments: Services as well as Solutions and Consulting. The central supply units, DATAGROUP Operations, DATAGROUP

1 The DATAGROUP Business Solutions divisions DATAGROUP Munich, DATAGROUP Berlin and DATAGROUP Defense IT Services are assigned to the "Services" segment, another remaining business unit to the "Solutions and Consulting" segment.

Enterprise Services, DATAGROUP Service Hub (previously DATAGROUP Service Desk and DATAGROUP Inshore Services) and Cloudeteer function as specialized production units, delivering services for the DATAGROUP market units in their role as internal competence and service centers within the DATAGROUP Group.

CENTRALIZATION WHERE NECESSARY, REGIONALITY WHERE POSSIBLE

DATAGROUP pursues a strategy that optimally combines decentralized and centralized approaches within the Group's organizational structure. This model allows for regional, collaborative partnerships with customers, while maintaining agility and supporting responsiveness to local market conditions. However, customers encounter a consistent DATAGROUP brand experience, and the individual companies benefit from the collective brand identity.

Furthermore, some services are centralized to benefit from synergies. In addition to the central supply units for the individual companies, this also applies to the centralized controlling, financing and management functions as well as centralized services such as accounting, human resources and IT services, which DATAGROUP SE provides for the group companies.

ACQUISITION STRATEGY TO BE CONTINUED

Since its IPO in 2006, DATAGROUP SE has acquired 36 companies. Its acquisition strategy focuses on IT service companies headquartered in Germany. The company's acquisition strategy is guided by four key growth objectives: strengthening the regional footprint, expanding the customer portfolio, recruiting soughtafter specialists, and enhancing the solution portfolio. DATAGROUP systematically explores the market with a focus on the following profiles: regional system houses transitioning into IT service providers, companies that strengthen the CORBOX core business, organizations with strong digitalization expertise, and IT service providers in the SME target customer markets. DATAGROUP pursues two strategic approaches when integrating companies: "buy-and-build" (i.e. companies that complement or enhance DATAGROUP's existing service portfolio) and "buy-and-turn-around" (i.e. acquired companies in turnaround situations requiring strategic restructuring).

DATAGROUP generally integrates the acquired companies into the Group. In this process, the individual companies often remain unchanged as legal entities to preserve both the agility of a midmarket business and long-standing customer relationships, some of which have existed for decades.

The companies are typically managed under the uniform DATAGROUP brand and newly acquired companies are renamed after a transition period.

In fiscal year 2023/2024, DATAGROUP acquired three companies and/or groups of companies:

With effect of 1 December 2023, CONPLUS, the IT service provider and expert for SAP Business One, was acquired with around 20 employees and has since strengthened the SME segment of DATAGROUP. On 1 January 2024, DATAGROUP acquired IT service provider iT TOTAL. With a staff of approx. 40 employees, iT TOTAL has IT projects, a retail business with associated service revenue as well as a strongly growing managed services segment. On 1 May 2024, IT consulting service provider ISC Innovative Systems Consulting AG and its approx. 50 employees was acquired. This acquisition strengthens DATAGROUP's expertise in SAP and the company continues to gain presence in Southern Germany.

In fiscal year 2024/2025, two companies and/or business units have been added so far:

On 1 December 2024, DATAGROUP acquired Potsdam-based Tarador GmbH. The company is focused on integrated IT security solutions for small and medium-sized enterprises as well as public institutions. The acquisition continues the growth and expansion of DATAGROUP in the SME segment and strengthens the cyber security portfolio, a strategically important field for the future.

With effect from 1 January 2025, DATAGROUP purchased the business operations of Triona – Information und Technologie GmbH, Mainz. The purpose of this acquisition is to strengthen the regional footprint in Mainz, from planning of customer-specific application systems to individual development, implementation, and integration of software.

Focus of Activity, Sales Markets and Competitive Position of DATAGROUP

CORBOX: IT as a Service

The CORBOX (corporate IT out of the box) is the heart of the DATAGROUP portfolio. With this service portfolio, DATAGROUP provides customers with IT as a Service: From a modular service offering, which covers the entire range of a company's IT, customers choose those services which perfectly meet their company requirements. "IT's that simple" is the motto, which DATAGROUP pursues with CORBOX. DATAGROUP looks after the customers' IT so that they can focus on their core business.

The CORBOX services have the necessary flexibility to cover an extremely broad range of customer requirements. Customers do not have to choose between two models, for instance, between operating their IT either in the private or in the public cloud because DATAGROUP's CORBOX solutions build a bridge between the worlds and cover the entire spectrum in hybrid scenarios.

Defined service level agreements guarantee performance and cost transparency. The security of all centralized CORBOX services is guaranteed by ISO 27001-certified DATAGROUP Data Centers (as a

tenant in so-called colocation centers) in Germany (Frankfurt am Main and Düsseldorf). Continuous monitoring of performance, capacities and security guarantees high availability of the services.

CERTIFICATIONS AND TESTING

Since September 2012, DATAGROUP has been continuously certified according to ISO 20000 – the highest possible ISO certification for professional IT service management. DATAGROUP undergoes the extensive testing procedure on a regular basis to have the IT services aligned to industry standards and to improve them consistently. To this end, "DATAGROUP IT Service Management", the management system for the cross-functional business process, is reviewed once a year in internal and external audits according to the international ISO 20000 standard. This includes all major services in the service catalog with all their processes and functions. The most recent recertification audit by TÜV Süd Management Services GmbH was successfully completed in July 2024.

All CORBOX services are based on ISO 20000-certified processes according to ITIL® and meet the quality criteria of industrial production. Customers benefit from consistently high process quality, service quality and security, making corporate IT a reliable and efficient means of production for success in business.

The basis of the CORBOX is a holistic IT service management which in its core includes a state-of-the-art information security management system (ISMS). DATAGROUP ISMS is regularly certified for selected DATAGROUP companies and services according to ISO/IEC 27001 and expanded by ISO/IEC 27018 with a focus on the protection of personal data in cloud environments.

Additionally, the CORBOX services and the required IT operations management provided by DATAGROUP Operations GmbH are certified according to ISO 27001 based on IT Grundschutz (BSI) and audited according to C5. Furthermore, individual subsidiaries of DATAGROUP are certified according to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, TISAX, TSI.Standard V4.1 Level 3 and audited according to IDW PS 951 Type 2 and ISAE 3402 Type 2. The central CORBOX cloud platforms are operated in a so-called colocation model in redundant data centers in Frankfurt and Düsseldorf. DATAGROUP has rented the space from certified data center operators which provide the relevant specific expertise. These data centers have state-of-the-art equipment in terms of security, building technology, access control, fire protection and emergency power supply. They are made available to DATAGROUP as a complete service package. This approach reduces the capital intensity of the business, while ensuring the highest possible standard for the basic infrastructure of the Data Center. DATAGROUP operates its own hardware and software for the CORBOX cloud services in these data centers.

Revenue and Earnings

In H1 2024/2025, revenue was up 12.5 % to TEUR 279,770 after TEUR 248,747 in the comparable prioryear period. The proportion of services was 81.7 % after 83.3 % in the previous year. Revenue from retail business totaled 18.2 % (16.7 % in H1 2023/2024).

The business activities of the DATAGROUP Group primarily focus on Germany. The share of business abroad amounts to roughly 2.0 %.

As a result of significantly higher material expenses, gross profit grew at a slightly lower rate of 11.1 % to TEUR 196,520 (PY TEUR 176,891). Accordingly, the gross profit margin declined from 71.1 % to 70.2 %. Material expenses / expenses for purchased services increased by 17.2 % to TEUR 84,974 (H1 2023/2024: TEUR 72,499). The increase in personnel expenses by 9.8 % to TEUR 141,222

(TEUR 128,606 in H1 2023/2024) was mainly due to a higher headcount driven by new acquisitions and capacity building in the future fields.

EBITDA was up 8.8 % to TEUR 41,404 (TEUR 38,060 in H1 2023/2024). The EBITDA margin stood at 14.8 % after 15.3 % in the comparable prior-year period.

EBITA came in at TEUR 27,137 after TEUR 25,007 in the first half of the previous year. The EBITA margin was 9.7 % (10.1 % yoy).

EBIT amounted to TEUR 22,606 after TEUR 20,761 in the comparable prior-year period. The EBIT margin was 8.1 % after 8.3 %.

Other depreciation rose by 9.3 % to TEUR 14,267 (TEUR 13,053 in H1 2023/2024). Amortization of order backlog and customer portfolios totaled TEUR 4,531 after TEUR 4,246 in the prior-year period.

Based on the rising interest levels and an increase in financial liabilities, the financial result amounted to TEUR -4,436 after TEUR -2,410 in H1 2023/2024.

Net income for the period was TEUR 11,175 after TEUR 12,377 in H1 2023/2024.

Financial and Asset Position

As of 31.03.2025, the balance sheet total increased by 4.0 % in comparison to 30.09.2024:

Figures in EUR 31.03.2025 30.09.2024
ASSETS
Long-term assets 369.679.499,62 358.413.219,79
Short-term assets 188.960.060,64 178.970.678,66
558.639.560,26 537.383.898,45
LIABILITIES
Equity 158.680.478,95 153.839.253,58
Long-term liabilities 240.109.778,77 229.409.137,14
Short-term liabilities 159.849.302,54 154.135.507,73
558.639.560,26 537.383.898,45

Equity rose to TEUR 158,680 versus TEUR 153,539 on 30.09.2024. The equity ratio stood at 28.4 % after 28.6 % on 30.09.2024. The dividend payment led to a reduction in equity by TEUR 8,295 (PY TEUR 12,497). The repurchase and sale of own shares reduced the equity (net) by another TEUR 1,525. The result from actuarial gains from the remeasurement of pension provisions disburdened the equity by another TEUR 3,486 (PY burden of TEUR 3,470).

Non-current financial liabilities increased slightly from TEUR 178,864 on 30.09.2024 to TEUR 182,088 on the balance sheet date. The increase in current financial liabilities from TEUR 24,233 (30.09.2024) to TEUR 50,614 is due to the first-time utilization of different overdraft facilities as well as money market lending in a total volume of EUR 28.5m.

The operating cash flow (OPEX) was TEUR 11,308 in the period from 01.10.2024 to 31.03.2025. It stood at TEUR 16,961 in the corresponding prior-year period. OPEX was adversely affected by the realignment (i.e. reduction) of the factoring of accounts receivable as well as by high tax payments. Investments in property,

plant and equipment and intangible assets (CAPEX) amounted to TEUR 10,180 in the first two quarters of the fiscal year after TEUR 7,100 in the comparable period a year before. This growth is related to AI technology as a future field as well as to investments in ERP systems. The free cash flow was TEUR 1,462 (previous year TEUR 10,261).

Total net debt as per 31.03.2025 in comparison to 30.09.2024 is as follows:

Figures in TEUR 31.03.2025 30.09.2024
Long-term financial liabilities 182.088 178.864
Short-term financial liabilities 50.615 24.233
Finance leasing receivables -31.555 -27.301
Cash and cash equivalents -34.944 -36.586
Short-term realizable securities -108 -104
166.096 139.107

The increase in total net debt is mainly attributable to company acquisitions (TEUR 9,369) as well as the dividend payment (TEUR 8,295) and the share buyback (TEUR 2,138).

Order development

DATAGROUP has seen a very good level of incoming orders in the first half of 2024/2025. In the first half of 2024/2025, orders from new customers added up to EUR 18.1m, while cross- and upselling contracts worth EUR 10.6m were secured.

However, the sustainable and stable order situation is mainly due to DATAGROUP's business model: The CORBOX, provided as Service-as-a-Product, generates a high proportion of recurring revenues: The contract terms are between three and seven years. The willingness to conclude long-term contracts remains high: Clients want to secure high-quality capacities in the long term.

Risks and Opportunities

The corporate strategy and management of the DATAGROUP Group is based on continuity and longevity. There have been no fundamental changes to the opportunities and risks of the months ahead compared to those outlined in detail in the 2023/2024 Annual Report, which is why the statements in the 2023/2024 Annual Report remain in force unchanged.

There were no risks to the continued existence of DATAGROUP in the first half of 2024/2025. From the current standpoint, there is also no indication of future risks that could jeopardize the continued existence of the company or have a sustainable negative impact on net assets, financial position, and results of operations.

Outlook

The Management Board provided an outlook for the current fiscal year at the Annual General Meeting on 18 March 2025: DATAGROUP's Management Board expects revenue to grow to EUR 545–565m (PY EUR 527.6m) in FY 2024/2025, which also takes account of the effects from organic growth, lower revenue

from old contracts, and inorganic growth from M&A. EBITDA is expected to come in between EUR 82–85m (PY EUR 80.4) and EBIT between EUR 47–50m (PY: EUR 45.8m).

A further slight improvement in profitability is expected to be driven by an increasing level of standardized services. The further increase in the performance of the CORBOX services by making use of artificial intelligence and robot-based automation processes is expected to help to better compensate for wage and price increases. An optimization of the Data Center will contribute to keep CAPEX at a low level.

There are still macroeconomic risks arising from geopolitical tensions such as the conflict in the Middle East and from the possible negative impact of the war in Ukraine on the overall economic development in Germany. However, management currently believes that this will not materialize during the remainder of the fiscal year or only to a limited extent.

Strategic PARTNERSHIP of KKR and HHS

Dante Beteiligungen SE, a holding company controlled by investment funds, vehicles and accounts advised and managed by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co L.P. and their affiliated companies (together "KKR"), entered into an investment agreement with DATAGROUP SE on 15 April 2025 which was approved by the Management Board and Supervisory Board. As part of the transaction, Dante Beteiligungen SE made a public offer to the shareholders of DATAGROUP to buy their shares at a price of EUR 54.00 per share in cash. On 9 May 2025, Dante Beteiligungen SE published the offer document for the public tender offer for the shares (ISIN: DE000A0JC8S7) of DATAGROUP SE. On 23 May 2025, the Management Board and Supervisory Board of DATAGROUP SE issued a reasoned statement on the public offer (also prepared in connection with the planned delisting from the regulated unofficial market ("Freiverkehr")) of DATAGROUP SE. In this statement, the Management Board and Supervisory Board stated that they support the offer, which they consider to be fair and attractive, and that they intend to tender all DATAGROUP shares held by them, either directly or indirectly, into the offer. In the investment agreement, DATAGROUP SE and Dante Beteiligungen SE have agreed that the DATAGROUP shares will be delisted from the regulated unofficial market ("Freiverkehr") following the settlement of the tender offer, where legally permissible. The Management Board and Supervisory Board explicitly point out that a separate delisting offer is not required. This offer is intended to provide DATAGROUP shareholders with the opportunity to tender their DATAGROUP shares to Dante Beteiligungen SE prior to delisting. The acceptance period of the offer will end at midnight (local time, Frankfurt am Main) on 6 June 2025. Unlike offers made pursuant to the German Securities Acquisition and Takeover Act ("WpÜG"), there will be no additional acceptance period. For more details, please refer to: Public tender offer - DATAGROUP.

DATAGROUP's strategic partnership with KKR and HHS aims at accelerating its already impressive growth and to create the conditions to make advantage of the growing need for IT services and digitalization. For this purpose, and at the same time as the conclusion of the investment agreement, Max H.-H. Schaber, founder of DATAGROUP, and his family holding HHS as well as KKR have entered into a strategic partnership. To this end, contracts have been concluded based on which HHS will indirectly transfer its stake of currently 54.4 % in the share capital of DATAGROUP to Dante Beteiligungen SE.

DATAGROUP's founder Max H.-H. Schaber will retain control of the company through HHS and together with KKR and remain Chairman of the Supervisory Board of DATAGROUP to ensure continuity for all parties involved. To this end, HHS and KKR will hold equal shares of 50 % in a holding company of the bidder.
