Milan, July 31, 2025 – The Board of Directors of Industrie De Nora S.p.A. (the "Company" or "De Nora") – Italian multinational listed on the Euronext Milan, specialized in the electrochemical industry and leader in sustainable technologies and in the green hydrogen industry – met under the chairmanship of Federico De Nora, approved the Half-Yearly Consolidated Financial Report as at June 30, 2025 (subject to limited audit).

Paolo Dellachà, Chief Executive Officer of Industrie De Nora, commented:

"The first six months of the year unfolded in a complex and continuously evolving macroeconomic and geopolitical environment, marked by growing market volatility and new sources of global uncertainty. In this

1 The difference between Adjusted (Adj.) EBITDA and Reported EBITDA in the data as of June 30, 2025, amounts to euro 2.6 m and includes nonrecurring M&A and company reorganization costs of euro 1.2 m, costs related to the divestment of the Marine Technologies business of euro 0.8 m, non-recurring personnel-related costs of euro 0.4 m, costs related to the divestment of the Fracking business of euro 0.3 m, net IPCEI Gigafactory project income of euro 0.2 m, other non-recurring costs of euro 0.1 m. The difference between EBITDA Adj. and EBITDA Reported in the figures as of June 30, 2024 amounts to approximately euro 1.3 m and includes net proceeds related to the divestment of the Marine Technologies business of euro 2.3 m, non-recurring personnel-related costs of euro 0.5 m, and non-recurring M&A and company reorganization costs of euro 0.1 m and other nonrecurring costs of euro 0.4 m.

2 Adjusted Net Income as of June 30, 2025, excludes, in addition to non-recurring items included in EBITDA, finance expenses (90 K euro) and income tax provision (2,270 K euro) considered non-recurring and the related tax effect on non-recurring item (excluding income tax provision) amounting to 757 K euro. Adjusted Net Income as of June 30, 2024 excludes, in addition to non-recurring items included in EBITDA, the related tax effect of approximately 16 K euro.

scenario, our business model – built on a strong competitive positioning and broad geographic and sector diversification – has proven highly resilient, enabling us to achieve significant growth in both revenues and operating margins."

"The Water Technologies business remains a key driver of our growth, supported by global structural trends such as water scarcity, regulatory developments and increasing environmental awareness. The Pools line, in particular, has continued its highly positive trend, marking five consecutive quarters of double-digit growth and exceeding our expectations, thanks to the reference market fundamentals. We are actively pursuing new opportunities for external expansion as well, and especially in the Water Technologies Systems space, with the aim of strengthening our positioning along the value chain and delivering integrated solutions ever closer to end customers. The Electrode Technologies and Energy Transition business have also performed in line with our expectations."

"The results achieved in the first half strengthen our confidence in the growth trajectory outlined for the year. De Nora Group has a long-term vision based on the resilience of its industrial model and its ability to seize opportunities offered by the energy transition and the increasing focus on water resources".

In this context, the revenue guidance for 2025, as previously communicated in March, is confirmed, with expected growth at a low single-digit rate compared to 2024. The solid performance in terms of profitability achieved in the first six months of the year also allows us to upgrade the guidance on the Adjusted EBITDA margin, now forecasted in the range between 17% and 18%, compared to the previous indication of 17%."

KEY INCOME STATEMENT INDICATORS

Adj.: Adjusted

Revenues as of June 30, 2025, were euro 415.6 million, growing by 3.8% compared to the first half of 2024. The figure was negatively affected, in the amount of euro 3.1 million, by the exchange rates development, especially the Euro-Dollar exchange rate; net of this effect, the change from the first half of 2024 would have been positive by 4.6%.

The positive evolution of revenues mainly reflects the growth of the Core Business. In particular, the Electrode Technologies business reported an 8.2% increase in revenues, while the Water Technologies business reported a 5.4% increase, mainly related to the robust growth of the Pools line (+25.5% year-on-year). The Energy Transition business reported revenues of euro 43.2 million (euro 52.3 million in the first half of 2024); the evolution of the figure reflects the schedule agreed with customers for the backlog contracts execution. This schedule includes an acceleration of production activities, and corresponding revenues, in the second half of the fiscal year.

Adjusted EBITDA as of June 30, 2025, amounted to euro 81.4 million, up 8.1% year-on-year, with an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 19.6%, up about 0.8 percentage points from H1 2024 (18.8%). The favorable trend in the operating margins mainly reflects the growth of the Water Technologies business, which reported an Adjusted EBITDA up 45% year-on-year, with an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 21.8% (15.9% in H1 2024).

The Electrode Technologies business reported an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 21.4%, in line with the last quarters of 2024, while the figure trend from the first half of 2024 (24.0%) mainly reflects the change in revenue mix, that has already occurred since the second quarter of last year. Finally, the Adjusted EBITDA of the Energy Transition business is positive at euro 1.1 million (3.4 million as of June 30, 2024). The change compared to H1 2024 mainly reflects the lower sales volumes, and provisions for risks, recorded in the first quarter, related to a single Italian customer whose parent company announced the initiation of a reconciliation procedure following financial difficulties.

It should be noted that the operational inefficiencies encountered during 2024, related to the optimization of production processes following plant scale-up, are completely resolved and, therefore, during the first half of 2025, both the Electrode Technologies business and the Energy Transition business benefited from newfound excellent operational efficiency.

Adjusted EBIT amounted to euro 63.5 million, an increase of 7.4% compared to June 30, 2024 (euro 59.1 million). The change is mainly attributable to the performance of Adj. EBITDA and an increase in amortization resulting from the development of investments made during 2024.

The share of result from equity-accounted investments related to the joint venture thyssenkrupp nucera AG & Co. KGaA ("thyssenkrupp nucera"), held at 25.85% as of June 30, 2025, was negative by euro 0.8 million, compared to a negative result of euro 1.9 million as of June 30, 2024.

Financial management shows net expenses of euro 6.5 million, compared to euro 2.2 million in the first half of 2024. Costs related to current financial management are essentially unchanged; the overall evolution of the figure mainly reflects the net balance of income and expenses related to exchange rates.

Adjusted Net Income as of June 30, 2025, was euro 39.7 million, up 2.5% compared to euro 38.7 million in the first half of 2024. Including non-recurring income and expenses, Net Income was euro 35.5 million compared to euro 40.0 million as of June 30, 2024.

The backlog as of June 30, 2025, was euro 521.8 million, compared to euro 558.0 million as of December 31, 2024. It should be noted that during the reporting period the Water Technologies business reported a 22% increase in the Backlog compared to the end of 2024, reflecting an order intake increase of approximately 15% year-on-year.

BREAKDOWN OF REVENUES BY BUSINESS SEGMENT

Revenues by Business:

The Electrode Technologies business reported revenues of euro 221.5 million, up 8.2% from the first half of 2024. The figure was negatively impacted, by approximately euro 1.5 million, due to the development of exchange rates, especially the Euro-Dollar exchange rate; net of this effect, the change compared to the previous half of 2024 would have been positive by 8.9%. The positive performance of the business mainly reflects the growth in the Chlor Alkali and Electronics lines, both up 16% year-on-year, with revenues of euro 162.6 million

and euro 33.8 million respectively. The Specialties and New Applications (Electrowinning) line reported a decline of 28.3%. Aftermarket services accounted for 44.6% of the business unit revenues.

The Water Technologies business reported revenues of euro 150.9 million, up 5.4% from the first half of 2024. The figure was negatively affected, by approximately euro 1.6 million, due to the exchange rates development, especially the Euro-Dollar exchange rate; net of this effect, the change compared to the previous first half of 2024 would have been positive by 6.5%. Business growth was driven by the Pools line, which reported revenues of euro 64.5 million, up 25.5% compared to H1 2024. The WTS3 line reported revenues of euro 86.4 million (euro 91.8 million in the first half of 2024); the figure mainly reflects the scope change due to the divestment of the Marine business, which had a negative impact of euro 3.4 million, and the planning of projects in the backlog. This schedule includes an acceleration of production activities, and related revenues, during the second half of the fiscal year, especially in the fourth quarter. Aftermarket services accounted for 44.1% of the WTS line revenues.

The Energy Transition business recorded revenues of euro 43.2 million (euro 52.3 million in the first half of 2024), in line with the production planning of the orders in the backlog. It should be noted that revenues are expected to accelerate in the second half of the fiscal year. As of June 30, 2025, the business Backlog fully covers the production volumes outlined in the guidance for the full year. This guidance projects high single-digit year-on-year revenue growth and is confirmed. During the quarter, De Nora realized about 500 MW of green hydrogen production technologies, mainly dedicated to the NEOM project in the Middle East, bringing total production to 2.7 GW since 2022.

Revenues in the APAC (Asia-Pacific) region totaled euro 143.6 million, up 6.4% year-on-year, mainly due to the Electrode Technologies business. Finally, the Europe, Middle East, India & Africa (EMEIA) region reported revenues of euro 135.3 million (144.4 million in the first half of 2024), mainly reflecting the development of the Energy Transition business.

3 WTS: Water Technologies Systems

During the first half of 2025, De Nora reported an Adjusted EBITDA growth of 8.1%, the Adjusted EBITDA margin was 19.6%, with an increase of approximately 0.8 percentage points compared to the first half of 2024.

In detail, the Electrode Technologies business reported an Adjusted EBITDA of euro 47.4 million, with an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 21.4% (24.0% in the first half of 2024). The change from June 30, 2024, mainly reflects a different revenue mix in terms of products, geographies and markets. This change in revenue mix had already occurred as of the second quarter of 2024.

The Water Technologies business reported an Adjusted EBITDA of euro 32.9 million, up 45% compared to the first half of 2024, with an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 21.8% (15.9% in the first half of 2024). The favorable trend in margins reflects the performance of both the Pools line – which benefited from significant volume expansion – and the WTS line. The latter benefits in turn from a higher revenues' incidence related to aftermarket services, the optimization of operating structures following the divestment of the Marine business, and a one-off gain related to the divestment of the fracking business in North America (amounting to approximately euro 1 million).

Finally, the Energy Transition business reported a positive Adjusted EBITDA of euro 1.1 million (3.4 in the first half of 2024), with an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 2.5%. The evolution of the figure, compared to the first half 2024, reflects lower revenues due to project scheduling and, in addition, as previously mentioned, provisions for risks and charges related to an Italian customer; net of these provisions, the Adjusted EBITDA margin would have been approximately 7%.

Statement of Financial Position

The Net Financial Position as of June 30, 2025, shows net cash and cash equivalents of 12.0 million (euro 14.2 million as of June 30, 2024). The evolution compared to the figure as of December 31, 2024 (euro 67.1 million) mainly reflects: the physiological expansion of Net Working Capital, typical of the first quarters of the year, the period investments amounting to euro 29.4 million, and the dividend distribution occurred in April of euro 20.7 million.

UPDATE ON THE ESG PLAN TO 2030

During the first six months of fiscal year 2025, De Nora continued with determination the implementation of its 2030 Sustainability Plan, reaffirming its strategic commitment to responsible growth and oriented to shared value creation. The Group's sustainability journey has steadily progressed, becoming increasingly integrated into the company's business model. This integration not only strengthens the competitiveness of De Nora's sustainable technologies but also contributes to consolidating the overall risk management system. In particular, the first part of the year saw continued implementation of the program to install photovoltaic

systems at the Group's production plants worldwide, with the goal of covering part of the energy needs through on-site renewable sources. During the first half of the year, photovoltaic systems, with a total annual capacity of approximately 380 MWh, were installed and connected at the Colmar (USA) and Tamworth (UK) facilities. Additionally, development began on a new solar park at the Mentor site in Ohio (USA), which will have an installed capacity of approximately 1.1 GWh per year. Completion of this installation is expected by the end of August, bringing total installed global capacity to about 5 GWh, a significant increase compared to the 3.5 GWh recorded at the end of 2024. On the Green Innovation side, work continued on the development of Sustainability Product Scorecards. By the end of 2025, the sustainability scorecards will be developed for approximately 15 products, including new ones. In 2025, De Nora also began integrating a new platform for ESG assessment of its suppliers, with the aim of developing a sustainable supply chain and optimizing risk management. As part of its Governance framework, De Nora has launched a structured training program on

anti-corruption prevention, which will progressively involve all Group companies. The initiative aims to enhance awareness and understanding of both internal and external regulatory requirements. Finally, with regard to the "People" pillar, De Nora launched its new Employee Value Proposition: "Open Surprising Paths," designed to enhance the potential of its people. The initiative also includes the new corporate blog "Open," conceived to attract and retain talent. This clear and distinctive value promise embodies the company's commitment to creating a work environment where innovation, sustainability and well-being enable everyone to fully express and develop their potential.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS OCCURRED DURING THE FIRST HALF OF 2025

Acquisition of the "SME" status

On January 8, 2025, Industrie De Nora hereby announced that with the introduction of Article 2 of Law No. 21 of March 5, 2024, which amended the capitalization threshold for the qualification of Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) from Euro 500 million to Euro 1 billion, the Company qualifies as an "SME" pursuant to Article 1, paragraph 1, letter w-quater.1) of Legislative Decree No. 58 of February 24, 1998 ("Consolidated Law on Finance" or TUF"), as its capitalization, calculated considering only the listed ordinary shares, is below the Euro 1 billion threshold. Consequently, for the purposes of disclosure obligations concerning significant shareholdings under Article 120 of the TUF, the applicable threshold is now 5% of the voting capital instead of 3%.

Two Collaboration Contracts signed with Saudi Water Authority and ACWA Power in water and hydrogen fields

On January 27, 2025, De Nora signed two collaboration and research contracts with Saudi companies ACWA Power and Saudi Water Authority, on the occasion of bilateral agreements signed between Italy and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The strategic agreements involving De Nora aim to boost the circular economy, innovation, and energy transition, contributing to Saudi Arabia's Vision and achieving the 2030 goals.

Contract signed in Japan to recover lithium from used batteries

On March 13, 2025, De Nora announced to have signed a contract with a major Japanese player to supply a plant for recovering lithium from used batteries. With its technologies, De Nora will contribute to the circular economy of critical raw materials and the energy transition.

Validation for climate targets by SBTi

On March 14, 2025, De Nora announced that the Science Base Target initiative (SBTi) has validated the company's greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction and use of renewable energy targets for 2030 as science-based and aligned with the United Nations' Paris Agreement to limit the global temperature rise to 1.5 degree Celsius.

Inauguration of the Innovation Center in North America

On April 17, 2025, De Nora inaugurated, in the presence of De Nora Tech's Chief Executive Officer, Michael Carroll, and local authorities, a new center in America, the Innovation Center, intended to be De Nora's cradle of technological innovation in the US. The new center marks another significant investment in the country and confirms America's strategic relevance in the Group's international expansion plan.

The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting approved the distribution of a dividend of euro 0.104 per share and appointed the new corporate bodies for the three-year period 2025-2027

On April 29, 2025, the ordinary Shareholders' Meeting resolved to approve the distribution to the Shareholders of a unit dividend of Euro 0.104 per eligible share, for a total amount of Euro 20,664,689.14, gross of withholding taxes, corresponding to a pay-out of approximately 25% of the consolidated net profit, to be paid from the profit for the year shown in the financial statements.

The Shareholders' Meeting also resolved on the appointment of the new Board of Directors of the Company for the three-year period 2025-2027, which will remain in office until the approval of the financial statements as at December 31, 2027, composed of: Maria Giovanna Calloni, Federico De Nora, Paolo Dellachà, Mario Cesari, Anna Chiara Svelto, Stefano Venier, Luca Passa, Elisabetta Oliveri, Michelangelo Mantero, Giorgio Metta, Alessandro Garrone and Alice Vatta. The Shareholders' Meeting also confirmed Federico De Nora as Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Paolo Dellachà confirmed as Chief Executive Officer and Internal Committees established

On April 29, 2025, The Board of Directors of Industrie De Nora S.p.A. appointed Paolo Dellachà as Chief Executive Officer, for the three-year period 2025-2027.

The Board of Directors, in line with the provisions of the Corporate Governance Code, also established the internal Committees and appointed their members. In particular, the Board confirmed the establishment of the Control, Risk and ESG Committee, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, the Related Party Transactions Committee and the Strategies Committee.

Resignation of a non-executive director

On June 27, 2025, De Nora announced to have received the resignation of Mr. Stefano Venier from the position of non-executive Director and member of the Strategy Committee, effective as of June 30, 2025, due to his separate agreement with SNAM.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

The first six months of the year were marked internationally by a complex and continuously evolving macroeconomic and geopolitical environment, which led to increased currency market volatility, and introduced further uncertainty in the development of the global economy. In this scenario, De Nora's business model – characterized by a strong competitive positioning at international level and a high degree of market diversification – proved particularly resilient, supporting significant growth in both revenues and operating profitability.

With reference to the evolution of the business during 2025, considering the growing and positive results achieved in the first half of the year, the level of the backlog as of June 30, 2025, and the expected evolution of the various reference markets – despite a complex macroeconomic context, that is expected to persist in the second half of the year – the revenues guidance 2025 already announced in March is confirmed. Revenues are expected to grow at a low single-digit rate compared to 2024. With reference to the single businesses' revenues, we expect a mid single-digit growth in Water Technologies, a high single-digit growth in Energy Transition, and a slightly decreasing trend in Electrode Technologies.

The favorable operating margin trend of the first quarters of the year also allows for an upgrade of the guidance on the Adjusted EBITDA margin, which is now expected to be in a range between 17% and 18%, compared to the previous indication of 17%.
