Welcome Note from the Executive Management

Dear Shareholders,

in the first half of 2025, Aumann maintained its profitability at a high level despite a decline in revenue, while order intake was below the prior-year figure due to volatile political conditions and subdued investment in the automotive sector. Meanwhile, the further development of the Next Automation segment was driven forward. A strong balance sheet with a high liquidity position ensures stability in a challenging environment.

Aumann demonstrated continued solid profitability in the first half of 2025 despite the persistently challenging economic environment. Revenue for the first six months developed as expected, declining by 23.4% yearon-year to €108.3 million. EBITDA totalled €11.4 million, with the EBITDA margin of 10.5% remaining at the prior-year level and still above the expected range of 8 to 10% for the full year 2025. This result is primarily attributable to strict cost discipline in order execution and a targeted adjustment of capacities to the subdued market situation.

Order intake in the first half of 2025 amounted to €90.0 million, representing a 30.8% decrease from the prioryear figure of €130.0 million. In the E-mobility segment, order intake declined by 39.1% to €68.1 million, mainly due to recently volatile political and economic conditions, tariff developments and a persistently subdued investment climate in the automotive sector. Nevertheless, the ongoing growth in new registrations of electric vehicles in a more stable geopolitical environment is expected to provide renewed investment momentum. In contrast, order intake in the Next Automation segment rose by 20.4% year-on-year to €21.9 million, supported by an order in the mid-single-digit million range for clean tech applications. Aumann continues to drive the expansion of the Next Automation segment both organically and through increased M&A activity. The order backlog amounted to €162.4 million as at 30 June 2025, compared to €288.4 million in the previous year. Despite the expected decline, profitability in the order backlog remains at a high level.

For the 2025 financial year, Aumann continues to expect revenue in the range of €210 million to €230 million with an EBITDA margin of 8 to 10%. With a strong balance sheet, net liquidity of €104.9 million and an equity ratio of 63.3% as at 30 June 2025, Aumann remains a reliable partner for its customers and is committed to further diversifying its activities, particularly in the Next Automation segment.

Sincerely,

Sebastian Roll Jan-Henrik Pollitt

Interim Group management report

Description of the business model

Aumann is a leading global manufacturer of innovative special machines and highly automated production lines with a strategic focus on electromobility as well as on new growth areas for automation solutions and robot applications outside the automotive industry. The company has an in-depth understanding of production, process and product know-how and can offer its customers technologically sophisticated and innovative production solutions. The spectrum ranges from modular production cells to complex process solutions, for example for winding and coating technology, to turnkey and customer-specific large-scale production systems.

E-mobility: The entire automotive industry is undergoing a continuous transformation: away from the complex, mechanical drive concept around the combustion engine, towards a much leaner and more sustainable electric drive concept. For this reason, Aumann aligned its strategy and portfolio with the needs of the electromobility megatrend years ago and is making a special contribution to emission-free mobility here. Aumann's innovative production solutions enable the highly efficient and technologically advanced large-scale production of a wide range of power units, components and systems for electromobility. These include energy storage and conversion systems (battery and fuel cell), the electric traction drive (rotor, stator, electric motor), the associated power electronics (inverter), power-on-demand aggregates, auxiliary motors as well as electronic components in the field of sensor technology and control. In addition, Aumann's range includes laminating and coating systems for electrodes and MEA (membrane-electrode assembly) production. Leading companies around the world rely on Aumann's solutions for the series production of all-electric and hybrid vehicle drives as well as on production automation solutions to manufacture their latest generations of energy storage systems, e-traction motors and electric auxiliary motors in large series and with the highest quality. The share of Aumann's E-mobility business segment accounted for around 82% of the business in the first half of the 2025 financial year.

Next Automation: The Next Automation segment represents Aumann's strategic realignment toward forwardlooking automation solutions outside the traditional automotive industry. In the past, the former Classic segment combined production lines for components for conventionally powered vehicles as well as for non-automotive applications. Outside the automotive industry, numerous reference projects have been implemented over the past few years, such as automated production lines for household appliances, industrial electric motors, photovoltaic modules, hydrogen electrolysers and wind turbines. The segment will be strategically and consistently geared towards new growth areas in the future, following the example of the development in the E-mobility segment. After Aumann has consistently developed the essential technologies of the electric powertrain in recent years and now offers the automation of the production of complex electric motors, battery systems and inverters, the focus will increasingly be on applications outside the automotive industry in the coming years. The previous Classic segment has therefore been renamed "Next Automation" and focuses on automation solutions for applications such as clean tech, aerospace and life sciences.

Business and economic conditions

In the first half of 2025, the global economy shifted from a phase of robust growth and declining inflation to a more uncertain course, weighed down by the economic and aggressive tariff policy of the United States. Global trade rose by around 1.5% in the first quarter, with growth expected to reach 2% in the second quarter. Inflation expectations have risen again in some economies, including the United States, with inflation also being significantly influenced by tariff policies. The OECD expects global growth to slow from 3.3% in 2024 to 2.9% in 2025, with declining rates particularly in the North American economic area. Growth will be driven primarily by significantly above-average growth rates in India, China and Indonesia. Growth of 1.4% (2024: 1.8%) is expected for the OECD economic area and 1.0% (2024: 0.8%) for the eurozone.

In the second quarter of 2025, German gross domestic product fell by 0.1% compared with the previous quarter, after rising by 0.3% in the first quarter of 2025. Despite improved business expectations, German industrial production and order intakes remain volatile. The industrial economy is continuing the upward trend that has been evident since the beginning of the year in the early summer, but is being influenced to a considerable extent by the highly unpredictable US tariff policy. Foreign trade is weighing on growth, as exports to the US in particular declined after advance deliveries in the first quarter. Domestic demand is developing unevenly: declines in retail sales are offset by an increase in new private car registrations and higher sales in the hospitality industry. Geopolitical uncertainties and the continuing weakness of the labour market continue to have a negative impact on consumer sentiment among

Market development

According to the European Automobile Manufacturers'-Association (ACEA), new car registrations in the EU fell by 1.9% compared to the same period last year. The trend varied across Europe and across vehicle categories: Electric and hybrid vehicles (+10.9%) and the markets in Spain (+15.2%) and the United Kingdom (+6.7%) recorded positive growth rates. By the end of June 2025, registrations of petrol vehicles had fallen by 21.2% and diesel vehicles by 28.1%, with all major markets recording declines. By contrast, the passenger car markets in the USA and China reported positive sales growth: the USA recorded a slight increase in registrations of 0.4% and China an increase of 11.2% in the first half of 2025. In Germany, new registrations of electric vehicles are growing despite the declining overall market. The share of electric vehicles in new registrations in Germany reached 27.6% and thus increased significantly by 9 percentage points compared to the first half of 2024.

According to the German Engineering Federation (VDMA), the mechanical and plant engineering sector recorded slight growth in order intake of 1% in the first half of 2025 compared to the previous year. While domestic orders declined by 1%, foreign orders increased by 2%. Within foreign business, orders from euro countries rose by 16%, while demand from non-euro countries fell by 3%. Overall, a 2% decline in order intake was recorded for the second quarter. The association attributes this in particular to the uncertainty caused by the customs dispute between the EU and the US.

Business performance, result of operations, financial position and net assets

Business performance

In the first half of fiscal year 2025, Aumann recorded a 23.4% decline in revenue to €108.3 million. This development was primarily due to the decline in order intake in the preceding quarters. Nevertheless, Aumann managed to achieve a solid operating margin. EBITDA amounted to €11.4 million in the first half of the year (previous year: €15.0 million), corresponding to an EBITDA margin of 10.5% (previous year: 10.6%). Adjusted for personnel costs related to the stock option program, adjusted EBITDA amounted to €11.7 million, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 10.8%.

Order intake in the first half of 2025 was below the previous year's level, mainly due to recently volatile political and economic conditions, tariff developments and a persistently subdued investment climate in the automotive sector. The order backlog declined as expected, while profitability in the order backlog remained at a consistently high level.

With innovative and highly automated production solutions, Aumann remains a reliable partner for the transformation to electromobility. The company's technological expertise, coupled with a continued stable financial base, gives it important advantages in the current challenging market environment.

As at 30 June 2025, Aumann had a strong liquidity position of €110.7 million (31 December 2024: €145.1 million) and an equity ratio of 63.3% (31 December 2024: 62.0%).

On 14 March 2025, the Supervisory Board of Aumann AG resolved, at the suggestion of the Executive Board, to cancel all of the 904,769 treasury shares purchased under the Share Buyback Programs 2023/I and 2023/II for the purpose of capital reduction. Following the cancellation of the treasury shares and the capital reduction taking effect, the share capital of Aumann AG amounts to €14,345 thousand (previously: €15,250 thousand) and is divided into 14,345,231 no-par value bearer shares with a notional share of the share capital of €1.00 per share.

In addition, on 14 March 2025, the Executive Board and Supervisory Board resolved to make use for the first time of the authorisation granted by the Annual General Meeting on 18 June 2024 to buy back treasury shares pursuant to Section 71 (1) no. 8 AktG and to offer shareholders the buyback of up to 1,434,523 treasury shares as part of a voluntary public tender offer addressed to all shareholders.

A total of 9,956,853 shares were tendered to Aumann AG as part of the voluntary public tender offer. The maximum offer volume of 1,434,523 shares was fully utilised. Applying the preferential acceptance of small quantities and an allocation ratio of around 13.77%, a total of 1,434,244 treasury shares were acquired. This corresponds to a share of 10.00% of the share capital and a total purchase price of €20.4 million excluding incidental acquisition costs.

The Supervisory Board and the Executive Board of Aumann AG proposed in the Annual General Meeting on 13 June 2025, which took place in presence, to pay out a dividend of €0.22 per dividend-bearing share. This proposal found approval of the majority. Payout of the dividend was on 18 June 2025.

Results of operations, financial position and net assets

In the first half of 2025, revenue amounted to €108.3 million (previous year: €141.4 million). Total performance, including capitalised development costs and other operating income, fell to €110.5 million (previous year: €144.1 million).

The cost of materials decreased disproportionately in relation to revenue to €56.5 million (previous year: €83.4 million). Personnel costs amounted to €36.7 million, down from €40.0 million in the previous year.

EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation) amounted to €11.4 million (previous year: €15.0 million). After depreciation and amortisation of €3.2 million (previous year: €3.2 million), EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) amounted to €8.2 million (previous year: €11.8 million). Considering a financial result of €1.1 million (previous year: €1.5 million), EBT (earnings before taxes) amounted to €9.2 million (previous year: €13.3 million). Consolidated net profit amounted to €6.4 million in the first half of 2025 (previous year: €9.2 million). This corresponds to earnings per share of €0.46, based on an average number of 13,869,791 shares in circulation.

In relation to the stock option program, personnel costs of €331 thousand (previous year: €344 thousand) were adjusted. The adjustment of personnel costs had a positive effect on adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA amounted to €11.7 million (previous year: €15.3 million). In addition, depreciation and amortisation of assets capitalised as part of the purchase price allocation of Aumann Limbach-Oberfrohna GmbH and Aumann Lauchheim GmbH was adjusted by €42 thousand (previous year: €42 thousand). This adjustment had a positive effect on adjusted EBIT. Adjusted EBIT thus amounted to €8.6 million (previous year: €12.2 million).

Order intake in the first six months amounted to €90.0 million. The order backlog amounted to €162.4 million as at 30 June 2025.

Aumann's equity amounted to €184.7 million as at 30 June 2025 (previous year: €201.7 million). Based on the total assets of €291.9 million, the equity ratio was 63.3%.

Financial liabilities decreased by €2.1 million and amounted to €5.8 million as at 30 June 2025 (previous year: €7.9 million).

Cash and cash equivalents decreased in the first half of 2025 from €139.2 million (31 December 2024) to €96.6 million. This decline was mainly due to the purchase of treasury shares in the amount of €20.4 million, investments in securities of €10.3 million, and the payment of a dividend of €2.8 million.

Net cash, i.e. the balance of the aforementioned liabilities and cash and cash equivalents, amounted to €104.9 million compared to €138.2 million as at 31 December 2024.

Segment performance

In the E-mobility segment, revenue decreased by 21.3% to €89.4 million as at 30 June 2025 (previous year: €113.6 million). The segment's EBITDA after six months amounted to €10.7 million (previous year: €13.2 million), corresponding to an EBITDA margin of 11.9% (previous year: 11.6%). EBIT was €8.2 million (previous year: €10.8 million). Order intake reached €68.1 million (previous year: €111.8 million). As at 30 June 2025, the segment had an order backlog of €115.4 million (previous year: €244.9 million).

In the Next Automation segment, revenue as at 30 June 2025, was €18.8 million (previous year: €27.8 million). The segment's EBITDA after six months amounted to €2.5 million (previous year: €3.6 million), corresponding to an EBITDA margin of 13.5% (previous year: 13.1%). EBIT was €1.9 million (previous year: €3.0 million). Order intake reached €21.9 million (previous year: €18.2 million). As at 30 June 2025, the segment had an order backlog of €47.0 million (previous year: €43.6 million).

Employees

As at 30 June 2025, Aumann employed 840 people, excluding trainees and temporary workers, which represents a decrease of 5.7% compared to 891 employees as at 31 December 2024 and a decrease of 9.6% compared to 929 employees as at 30 June 2024. In addition, 80 trainees and dual students as well as one temporary worker were employed. The total number of employees as at 30 June 2025 was 921, compared to 990 as at 31 December 2024.

Report on risks and opportunities

Risks and opportunities for the business development of the Aumann Group are described in the Group management report for the financial year 2024, which is available on our website www.aumann.com. The assessment in this regard remains unchanged. Aumann's risk management system is designed to identify risks at an early stage and take immediate action.

Outlook

For the 2025 financial year, Aumann continues to expect revenue between €210 million and €230 million with an EBITDA margin of 8 to 10%.

Additional disclosures on financial instruments

The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of the financial instruments by class and IFRS 9 measurement categories. In addition, the financial instruments measured at fair value are classified in the fair value hierarchy provided for in IFRS 13. The individual levels of this hierarchy are defined as follows:

  • Level 1: The market value determination is based on price quotations of active markets (e.g. stock market prices).
  • Level 2: Market observable parameters are incorporated into the market value determination to a significant extent.
  • Level 3: The market value determination is based on valuation methods in which mainly non-market observable input factors are included.

Most of the assets, trade payables, payables to non-controlling partners and other financial liabilities classified at cost in accordance with IFRS 9 have short residual maturities. As at the balance sheet date, their carrying amounts are approximately equivalent to their fair values. In application of IFRS 7.29a, fair value is not disclosed ("n/a").

² Other financial assets and other financial liabilities include all other current assets and other liabilities that do not arise from taxes and accrued income or deferred income.

The principles and methods used to determine the fair value are unchanged as at 30 June 2025. Further details can be found in section VI. of the notes to the consolidated statements of financial position for 2024.

For securities measured at fair value, fair values are based on the market price quoted on an active market. Investments in equity instruments are predominantly measured at fair value in other comprehensive income without affecting profit or loss. At the balance sheet date, there were only equity instruments measured at fair value without effect on profit or loss. This presentation is based on the business model and the underlying investment strategy.

The fair values of liabilities to banks and liabilities from profit participation rights as well as the contingent consideration from put options are determined as the present values of the expected future cash flows. Discount rates are based on the relevant maturities and creditworthiness.

There were no changes between levels in either the current financial year or the past financial year.

The following table shows the measurement methods used to determine fair values:
