Comments from the CEO

Cautiously positive market development for insulation, and strong development for packaging. Contemplating equity issue to strengthen financial position

BEWI reports a solid 13 per cent year over year increase in EBITDA for the second quarter of 2025, driven by strong performance by the packaging business. The insulation business delivered sales on par with the same quarter last year, with results down mainly due to higher share of less profitable commodity products.

We are seeing cautiously positive market developments for our insulation business so far this year. Markets dominated by commodity products, including the Nordics and Baltics, have recovered more than Benelux and Germany, where more specialised solutions are sold. This shift resulted in a lower EBITDA margin for the segment year over year.

At the same time, the packaging business is growing and serves as a stabiliser to the group's total portfolio, contributing with higher profitability. For the second quarter packaging delivered 36 per cent higher EBITDA compared to the same quarter last year, led by higher volumes of fish boxes. We are also satisfied

We are confident in our strategy and the longterm potential for our solutions, where megatrends support increased demand for circular packaging and energy efficient solutions.

to see increased volumes of components to HVAC systems and the automotive industry, of which the latter was supported by customer-related investments.

By early July, we were happy to conclude the merger of the raw materials business with Unipol and our traded food packaging business with STOK. The transactions sharpen our strategic focus, aligning the business around core operations and supporting improved profitability and long-term value creation for shareholders.

Our core operations now comprise our downstream business, focusing on packaging, components and insulation solutions. We also remain committed to our circular and integrated business model, with operational synergies from the long-term collaboration and ownership in BEWI RAW, as well as the Circular segment providing access to recycled feedstock.

The long-lasting low activity in the building and construction industry has impacted BEWI's results and balance sheet, and the group is therefore now contemplating an equity issue to strengthen the group's financial position.

We are confident in our strategy and the long-term potential for our solutions, where megatrends support increased demand for energy efficient solutions and circular packaging. When the market

recovers, we expect to capitalise on recent investments in production capacity, as well as our activities for rightsizing and operational excellence. We also see opportunities for strategic growth.

Trondheim, Norway, 19 August 2025,

BEWI Q2 2025 report

Financial review

(Information in parentheses refers to the corresponding periods the previous year).

Profit and loss for continuing operations

Changes compared to the corresponding periods in 2024 relate mainly to organic developments (i.e., change in volumes or prices) or currency effects. For more information on the development in net sales and EBITDA, see explanations under each segment and the revenue and EBITDA bridges.

Second quarter of 2025

Net sales amounted to EUR 208.2 million for the second quarter of 2025 (207.5), which was in line with the corresponding quarter of 2024. Sales for the P&C and Circular segments increased by EUR 8.1 and 2.5 million respectively, explained by higher volumes, while sales for the I&C segment was down EUR 3.8 million explained mainly by lower prices following reduced raw material prices.

Adjusted EBITDA came in at EUR 21.7 million for the quarter (19.2), up by 13.2 per cent from the same quarter last year.

The increase is explained by improved EBITDA for the P&C and Circular segments. The contribution from the I&C segment was EUR 0.8 million lower this quarter mainly due to the lower sales prices and product mix development.

The adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 10.4 per cent for the quarter (9.2).

Operating income (EBIT) was EUR 3.8 million for the quarter (5.5). The lower EBIT is mainly explained by negative items affecting comparability of EUR 1.3 million related to restructuring and transaction costs this year, compared to a positive EUR 1.8 million last year, in addition to increased depreciations.

Net financial items amounted to a negative EUR 11.8 million for the quarter (-9.9), largely explained by increased interest expenses from additional leasing contracts and exchange differences.

Taxes amounted to a positive EUR 0.7 million (-1.2).

Net result for the second quarter of 2025 ended at a loss of EUR 7.3 million (-5.7).

First half of 2025

Net sales amounted to EUR 396.2 million for the first half of 2025 (391.1), an increase of 1.3 per cent explained mainly by higher volumes for P&C and Circular.

Adjusted EBITDA came in at EUR 36.7 million for the first half of 2025 (32.4), representing an increase of 13.2 per cent.

Both downstream segments, as well as the Circular segment increase their EBITDA and EBITDA margin for the first half of 2025, mainly driven by increased volumes combined with active margin management and cost reductions.

The adjusted EBITDA margin ended at 9.3 per cent for the first half year (8.3), up 1.0 percentage point from last year.

Operating income (EBIT) was EUR 0.9 million for the first half of 2025 (4.6). The lower EBIT is mainly explained by negative items affecting comparability as well as increased depreciations.

Items affecting comparability of a negative EUR 2.0 million (2.8) mainly related to restructuring and transaction costs.

Net financial items amounted to a negative EUR 22.3 million for the first half of 2025 (-20.7), largely explained by increased interest expenses from additional leasing contracts and exchange differences.

Taxes amounted to a positive EUR 1.7 million (0.0) for the first six months.

Net result for the first half of 2025 ended at a loss of EUR 19.7 million (-16.1).

Challenging market conditions impacting volumes and margins, transaction to merge with Unipol completed in July

Please note that the RAW segment is reported as discontinued operations.

Market development

The building and construction industry accounts for approximately 70 per cent of the sale for RAW. The downturn in this industry has therefore had a significant negative impact on the volumes and margins for the segment the past years.

RAW's largest markets are Norway, Germany and Poland. In Norway, most of the volumes are used for production of fish boxes. In Germany and Poland, the building and construction industry is the largest end market, and these markets continue to be challenging.

The competition in the market is strong, and producers of the EPS raw material are running at reduced capacity.

Operational review Cost reduction programme in RAW

In October 2024, BEWI launched an extensive cost reduction programme in RAW. The programme is running according to plan, with visible effects in the second quarter. Savings are estimated to have an annual run-rate of EUR 6 million by the end of 2025.

Merger between BEWI RAW and Unipol completed, creating a leading EPS producer in Europe

In February 2025, BEWI announced an agreement to merge RAW with the Dutch raw materials company Unipol. The transaction was completed on 8 July 2025 (see events after the close of the period).

Segment RAW develops and produces raw material for use in end products. The materials include a range of white and grey EPS, GPPS, and Biofoam, a fully bio-based particle foam. The EPS and GPPS materials are produced with virgin and/ or recycled feedstock. The raw material is sold internally and externally for production of end products. Raw material is produced at 3 facilities located in Finland, the Netherlands, and Germany.

Financial review Second quarter of 2025

Net sales for segment RAW amounted to EUR 71.5 million for the quarter (90.6), a decrease of 21.1 per cent compared to the corresponding quarter of 2024. Sales were negatively impacted by lower volumes and lower EPS prices in the market, somewhat compensated by slightly higher volumes of grey EPS which has a higher price level.

Adjusted EBITDA came in at a negative EUR 2.9 million for the second quarter of 2025 (8.7). The negative result is mainly explained by the lower volumes and sales prices, partly compensated by increased efficiency and reduced fixed cost.

The EBITDA for the second quarter of 2024 was positively impacted by a compensation amounting to EUR 7.6 million.

Further, as the new extruder line still is in a ramp-up phase, the financial contribution to the EBITDA in the second quarter of 2025 was limited.

First half of 2025

Net sales for segment RAW amounted to EUR 144.1 million for the quarter (162.8), a decrease of 11.5 per cent from the same period last year.

Adjusted EBITDA ended at a negative EUR 1.6 million for the first six month of the year (12.4).

Segment Insulation & Construction (I&C)

Cautiously positive market development so far this year, with variations across regions

Market development

The I&C segment is primarily exposed to the building and construction industry, where the activity has been significantly reduced the past couple of years.

The overall market development has been cautiously positive year to date, but the recovery has progressed at a slower pace than initially anticipated. In the second quarter, market developments varied across regions. Markets dominated by commodity products—such as the Nordics and Baltics—performed more positively than the Benelux region, where more specialized solutions are offered.

Most of the segment's products and solutions can be used for both newbuilds and renovations. Currently, approximately 25 per cent of the sales are to renovation. The share is lower in the Nordics and higher in other European markets.

Operational review Capacity and cost adjustments

Since the downturn in the building and construction industry started and to date, BEWI has implemented significant measures in the I&C segment to reduce capacity and costs to adapt to the lower activity, as well as to optimise its production footprint following acquisitions.

The measures have resulted in a lower fixed cost level for the quarter compared to last year, despite inflation and salary increases.

Segment I&C develops and manufactures an extensive range of insulation products for the building and construction industry, including solutions for foundations, walls, roofs, and ceilings, as well as infrastructure projects.

BEWI's insulation solutions are produced at 28 facilities in 11 countries. In addition, BEWI has minority interests in 5 facilities in France and 6 facilities in Germany.

Segment Insulation & Construction (I&C)

Financial review

Second quarter of 2025

Net sales came in at EUR 116.7 million for the quarter (120.5), a decrease of 3.2 per cent, mainly explained by lower sales prices following reduced raw material prices.

Adjusted EBITDA ended at EUR 10.2 million for the quarter (11.1), down by 7.7 per cent. The decrease is explained by the product mix, were the share of commodity products increased.

The adjusted EBITDA margin came in at 8.8 per cent compared to 9.2 per cent for the second quarter of 2024. The segment has maintained strict cost control and active margin management.

First half of 2025

Net sales came in at EUR 218.1 million for the first half of the year (218.9), a decrease of 0.4 per cent driven by lower sales prices.

Adjusted EBITDA ended at EUR 18.1 million for the first half of 2025 (17.5), an increase of 3.0 per cent.

Segment Packaging & Components (P&C)

Strong EBITDA development from higher fish box volumes, market for HVAC components improving

Please note that the food trading part of the P&C segment is reported as discontinued operations.

Market development

For the second quarter of 2025, sales to food packaging accounted for 38 per cent of the segment's sales (excluding the traded products classified as discontinued operations). The seafood industry is the most important end-market, to which BEWI mainly sells EPS boxes for transportation of fresh fish.

Sales of components to the automotive industry increased from the second quarter last year and accounted for 28 per cent of the sales this quarter.

Products to other industries make up the remaining 34 per cent of the sales in this segment. This includes protective packaging and technical components, such as components to heating-, ventilation-, and air-condition (HVAC) systems and other components. HVAC volumes were up this quarter and is expected to grow on the back of increased activity in the building and construction industry, but also from innovations in the HVAC industry.

Operational review Strategic review and strengthening of the automotive business

In July 2024, BEWI initiated a strategic review of its automotive business, targeting to further develop this business.

Last year, the company acquired assets from Philippine Group, increasing the group's capacity, broadening the customer base and resulting in higher volumes sold. Production on the acquired assets is currently in a ramp-up phase, which added extra cost and thus impacted the segments earnings in the quarter.

Traded food packaging business

In October 2024, BEWI entered into an agreement to merge its traded food packaging business with the Danish packaging company STOK Emballage (STOK). The transaction was finalised on 30 June 2025 and provided BEWI with approximately EUR 20 million in cash and a minority ownership in the combined company.

Segment P&C develops and manufactures packaging solutions, and technical components for customers in many industrial sectors, including boxes for transportation of fresh fish, protective packaging for pharmaceuticals and electronics, and automotive components. The material is mainly composed of expanded polystyrene (EPS), expanded polypropylene (EPP), or fibre. In addition, the company sells traded products for food packaging. The solutions are produced at 36 facilities in 10 countries.

Segment Packaging & Components (P&C)

Second quarter of 2025

Net sales amounted to EUR 84.7 million for the second quarter of 2025 (76.6), an increase of 10.5 per cent. The increase is explained by increased volumes.

Adjusted EBITDA came in at EUR 13.2 million for the second quarter of 2025 (9.7), corresponding to an increase of 35.5 per cent and an EBITDA margin development from 12.7 per cent last year to 15.6 per cent this quarter. The strong development came from the increased volumes as well as measures initiated to reduce the cost base the past year.

First half of 2025

Net sales amounted to EUR 161.8 million for the first half of 2025 (151.5), an increase of 6.8 per cent.

Adjusted EBITDA came in at EUR 22.6 million for the first half of 2025 (19.3), an increase of 16.8 per cent.

Jointly owned

Increased sales and EBITDA, as well as a significant increase in collection of used EPS for recycling

Market development

Segment Circular's key strategic priority is to secure waste streams, i.e., increase the collected volumes of material for recycling. The market is fragmented and immature, and the availability of used EPS for recycling is challenging.

Demand for recycled material has been – and still is impacted by the low activity in the building and construction industry to which most volumes are sold. However, packaging customers increasingly show interest in products based on recycled material, both on the back of more stringent regulations, and improved availability of solutions meeting the requirements for food packaging.

Prices for recycled material correlate to some extent to the virgin raw material price. As the supply chain for Circular is longer than for the other segments, the segment is more sensitive to volatile raw material prices.

Operational review Collection of EPS for recycling

In the second quarter of 2025, BEWI collected 8 188 tonnes of used EPS for recycling, an increase of 44 per cent from the corresponding period of 2024.

The improved access to recycled material from Circular provides BEWI RAW and the downstream segments with a competitive advantage, as the interest in solutions with reduced carbon footprint is increasing.

Sales of recycled GPPS

For the second quarter of 2025, Circular sold 6 803 tonnes of recycled GPPS, an increase of 39 per cent from the same period last year.

Recycled GPPS is mainly used in the production of XPS-based products or as feedstock in EPS raw material

Segment Circular is responsible for BEWI's collection and recycling of used material. The segment offers different solutions for waste management and a range of recycled materials. As of 31 March 2025, BEWI operated 5 recycling facilities in 5 countries. In addition, the company operates many collection points and holds a minority interest in one facility in Poland.

Financial review

Second quarter of 2025

Net sales for segment Circular amounted to EUR 16.6 million for the second quarter of 2025 (14.1), an increase of 18.0 per cent, explained by increased volumes and especially recycled GPPS volumes.

Adjusted EBITDA amounted to a negative EUR 0.3 million for the quarter (-0.5). The improvement from the previous year is mainly explained by increased volumes in combination with higher gross margin on sold volumes.

First half of 2025

Net sales for segment Circular amounted to EUR 30.9 million for the first half of 2025 (26.6), an increase of 16.1 per cent.

Adjusted EBITDA amounted to a negative EUR 1.4 million for the first half of 2025 (-2.3).

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to a positive EUR 1.0 million for the second quarter of 2025 (23.0), including an increase in working capital of EUR 7.2 million (decrease of EUR 6.0 million).

The increase in working capital, was due to higher accounts receivables due to higher sales in the quarter.

For the first half of 2025, cash flow from operating activities amounted to a negative EUR 9.6 million (2.8), including a decrease in working capital of EUR 25.7 million (-17.5).

Cash flow used for investing activities amounted to a positive EUR 9.2 million for the second quarter of 2025 14.7) and was positively impacted by the divestment of the food trading business in the second quarter of 2025. Cash flow from investing activities last year was positively impacted by cash inflow from divestment of properties in sale and leaseback transactions.

For the first half of 2025, cash flow from investing activities amounted to a negative EUR 0.3 million (19.4). Both periods were positively impacted by the divestments in the second quarter.

The capital expenditures were slightly higher in 2025 compared to previous year, see separate section below. Cash flow from financing activities was negative EUR 12.1 million for the second quarter of 2025 (-13.0), mainly impacted by a reduction of the credit facilities and repayment of leasing liabilities.

For the first half of 2024, cash flow from financing activities amounted to a negative EUR 23.1 million (-18.5), explained by the same reasons as for the quarter.

Capital expenditures (CAPEX)

For the second quarter of 2025, CAPEX was EUR 10.9 million (7.8). Of this, EUR 5.9 million was related to strategic investments, including customer projects, in the listed automotive company Izoblok and BEWI's automotive facility in Germany.

For the first half of 2025, CAPEX totalled EUR 20.3 million (16.5). Of this, EUR 10.6 million was related to strategic investments in the automotive business, as described for the quarter.

Excluding the strategic investments, the investments for the first half of 2025 amounted to EUR 9.7 million.

Return on capital employed (ROCE)

Average return on capital employed was 2.6 per cent (4.3 per cent) for the second quarter of 2025 (see details on Alternative Performance Measures (APM)).

ROCE has declined for the last two years. This is a consequence of the many and large acquisitions completed in 2022, resulting in a significant increase of the balance sheet, combined with the downturn in the market experienced since then.

Organisation

In the second quarter of 2025, BEWI's total operations had 3 147 FTEs, including the discontinued operations, compared to 3 082 in the second quarter of 2024.

Important events in the first half of 2025

Segment-specific events for the first half are described under each segment above.

Share information

On 30 June 2025, the total number of shares outstanding in BEWI ASA was 191 722 290, each with a par value of NOK 1. Each share entitles to one vote.

During the second quarter, the BEWI share traded between NOK 20.00 and NOK 23.40 per share, with a closing price of NOK 22.40 on 30 June 2025.

Events after the period

Completion of the transaction to merge BEWI RAW and Unipol

In February 2025, BEWI announced an agreement to merge its raw materials business with Unipol. The agreement was completed on 8 July 2025.

BEWI maintains 49 per cent ownership of the combined entity, comprising four raw material facilities with an annual production capacity of 375 000 tonnes of EPS.

The total value of the transaction is up to EUR 75 million, subject to adjustments for net working capital and net debt. EUR 30 million was settled on completion and the remainder is subject to an earn-out agreement.

A capital gain of approximately EUR 65 million will be booked related to the transaction. Adjustments have been done since the transaction was announced (EUR 100 million estimate), related to net working capital and debt, current assessments of earn-out achievements including discounting effects.

Contemplated equity issue of EUR 75 million

BEWI is contemplating an equity issue to raise gross proceeds of the NOK equivalent of EUR 75 million to strengthen the company's balance sheet and for general corporate purposes.

Investigating a potential acquisition

Following the signing of a non-binding term sheet in the third quarter of 2025, BEWI is in early stages of due diligence for a potential acquisition.

The discussions are still in early stages and there can be no certainty as to whether the potential acquisition will be carried out. The potential acquisition is subject to satisfactory due diligence, agreement on binding transaction agreements, financing, corporate approvals including board approvals and approval by the general meeting, as well as other conditions such as applicable regulatory approvals.

Risks and uncertainties

BEWI's risks and risk management are described in the group's annual report for 2024.

For the second half of 2025, BEWI's most significant risks and uncertainties relate to the development in the building and construction industry in Europe, impacting the demand for the group's energyefficient solutions, including insulation and components for HVAC systems.

Outlook

BEWI has experienced a cautiously positive market development in the building and construction industry so far this year, and the market recovers slower than anticipated. Volumes are at low levels compared to the time before the downturn, impacting leverage and other key performance indicators for the group. Therefore, BEWI is now contemplating an equity issue to strengthen the group's financial position and to position for growth.

As expected, slaughter volumes of Norwegian salmon were higher in the second quarter this year than last year, resulting in increased volumes of fish boxes. The standing biomass of salmon at the end of the second quarter indicates a positive development also in the third quarter.

BEWI's strategic priorities are anchored in strong market fundamentals, and the group remains confident in its strategy and the long-term potential for its business.

Definitions of alternative performance measures not defined by IFRS

Organic growth Organic growth is defined as growth in net sales for the reporting period compared to the same
period last year, excluding the impact of currency and acquisitions. It is a key ratio as it shows the
underlying sales growth.
EBITDA Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation. EBITDA is a key performance indicator
that the group considers relevant for understanding the generation of profit before investments in
fixed assets.
EBITDA margin EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. The EBITDA margin is a key performance indicator that the
group considers relevant for understanding the profitability of the business and for making com
parisons with other companies.
EBITA Earnings before interest, tax, and amortisations. EBITA is a key performance indicator that the group
considers relevant, as it facilitates comparisons of profitability over time independent of corporate
tax rates and financing structures but including depreciations of fixed assets used in production to
generate the profits of the group.
EBITA margin EBITA as a percentage of sales. The EBITA margin is a key performance indicator that the group
considers relevant for understanding the profitability of the business and for making comparisons
with other companies.
EBIT Earnings before interest and tax. EBIT is a key performance indicator that the group considers
relevant, as it facilitates comparisons of profitability over time independent of corporate tax rates
and financing structures. Depreciations are included, however, which is a measure of resource
consumption necessary for generating the result.
Items affecting
comparability
Items affecting comparability include transaction costs related to acquisition of companies, includ
ing the release of negative goodwill from acquisitions, severance costs and other normalisations
such as divestment of real estate, closing of facilities, unscheduled raw material production stops
and other.
Adjusted (adj.) EBITDA Normalised earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation (i.e., items affecting com
parability and deviations are added back). Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance indicator that the
group considers relevant for understanding earnings adjusted for items that affect comparability.
Adjusted (adj.) EBITDA
margin
Normalised EBITDA before items affecting comparability as a percentage of net sales. The adjusted
EBITDA margin is a key performance indicator that the group considers relevant for understanding
the profitability of the business and for making comparisons with other companies.
Adjusted (adj.) EBITA Normalised earnings before interest, tax, and amortisations (i.e., items affecting comparability and
deviations are added back). EBITA is a key performance indicator that the group considers relevant,
as it facilitates comparisons of profitability over time independent of corporate tax rates and
financing structures but including depreciations of fixed assets used in production to generate the
profits of the group.
Adjusted (adj.) EBITA
margin
Normalised EBITA before items affecting comparability as a percentage of sales. The EBITA margin is
a key performance indicator that the group considers relevant for understanding the profitability of
the business and for making comparisons with other companies.
ROCE Return on average capital employed. ROCE is a key performance indicator that the group considers
relevant for measuring how well the group is generating profits from its capital in use. ROCE is
calculated as rolling 12 months adjusted EBITA as a percentage of average capital employed during
the same period. Capital employed is defined as total equity plus net debt, and the average is
calculated with each quarter during the measurement period as a measuring point.
Net debt Interest-bearing liabilities excluding obligations relating to employee benefits, minus cash and cash
equivalents. Net debt is a key performance indicator that is relevant both for the group's calculation
of covenants based on this indicator and because it indicates the group's financing needs.
Adjusted (adj.) EPS Earnings per share (EPS) adjusted for items affecting comparability, depreciations/amortisations
attributable to fair adjustments in business combinations and fair value adjustments in financial
items, Including tax on those items. Adjusted EPS is a key performance indicator considered rele
vant for the group as it presents the EPS generated by the actual operations of the group.

Notes to the financial statements

Note 01 General information

The company and the group

BEWI ASA, with corporate registration number 925 437 948, is a holding company registered in Norway, Trondheim at the address Dyre Halses gate 1a, 7042 Trondheim, Norway.

Amounts are given in EUR million unless otherwise indicated.

Note 02 Accounting policies

The consolidated accounts for the BEWI ASA group ("BEWI ASA") have been prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards and interpretations from the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRS IC), as adopted by the EU. The accounting policies comply with those described in BEWI ASA's Annual Report for 2024. This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim financial reporting.

Note 03 Related party transactions

Christian Bekken, CEO of BEWI ASA, is together with other members of the Bekken family major shareholders of BEWI ASA through Bekken Invest AS and BEWI Invest AS. Logistea is no longer an associated company to BEWI Invest and the rental expenses to Logistea are therefore not classified as related party transactions after Q1.

Companies owned by the Bekken family are related parties to BEWI ASA.

Other related parties are BEWI's associated companies, for example the two 34 per cent owned companies Hirsch France SAS and Hirsch Porozell GmbH. Sale of gods to Hirsch are related to the discontinued operations and thus not visible in the table below. Transactions with the related parties' companies are presented in the tables below.

Note 04 Segment information

Operating segments are reported in a manner that corresponds with the internal reporting submitted to the chief operating decision-maker. The executive committee constitutes the chief operating decision maker for the BEWI group and takes strategic decisions in addition to evaluating the group's financial position and earnings. Group management has determined the operating segments based on the information that is reviewed by the executive committee and used for the purposes of allocating

resources and assessing performance. The executive committee assesses the operations based on four operating segments: RAW, Insulation & Construction, Packaging & Components and Circular. Sales between segments take place on market terms. Each segment sells products that are similar in nature. External revenue for the different segments also represents the group's disaggregation of revenue.

The group's loan structure

The base funding of the group consists of a bond loan, a revolving credit facility (RCF) and a receivable purchase agreement (RPA). The group also has other liabilities such as local liabilities to credit institutions and overdraft facilities in some of its subsidiaries as well as liabilities for lease contracts.

The bond is unsecured and linked to a sustainability framework with maturity on 3 September 2026 with the possibility for BEWI to unilaterally decide on early redemption after 3 March 2025 of 50 per cent of the bond outstanding at that date. The main terms for the bond outstanding during the year is presented in the table below. The bond terms stipulate a sustainability performance target in which BEWI has committed to collect 45 000 tonnes of EPS for recycling annually by 2024. Since BEWI did not reach that target, an additional 0.75 per cent of the nominal value of the bond will be redeemed on maturity. This additional interest is recognised over the term of the bond loan in accordance with the effective interest method.

Issued amount Frame Amount outstanding Date of issuance Maturity
EUR 250 million EUR 250 million EUR 251.4 million 3 September 2021 3 September 2026

The bond is recognised under the effective interest method at amortised cost after deductions for transaction costs. Interest terms as well as nominal interest rates and average interest rates recognised during the quarter are presented in the table below.

1 Apr-30 Jun 2025

EUR 250 million Euribor 3m + 3.15% 5.15-5.64% 5.15-6.08% 6.73% 6.77%

The RCF is granted by two banks. As of 30 June 2025, the credit limit amounts to EUR 111.5 million. The RCF matures on 30 May 2026 and liabilities to credit institutions attributable to the RCF are consequently reported as current liabilities as of 30 June 2025.

The RPA is an uncommitted facility with a frame of EUR 75 million, of which EUR 60.8 million was utilised as of 30 June 2025. The utilised portion of the RPA is subject to an interest charge, which is recognised as a financial expense in the statement of income.

The available credit under the RCF is reduced partly by the amount utilised under the RPA. As of 30 June 2025, the RCF was utilised by the amount of EUR 57.2 million and EUR 54.3 million was unutilised. Net utilisation of the RPA, EUR 26.9 million was available of the RCF.

Pledged assets

In total, the group has pledged asset amounting to EUR 16.3 million, securing interest bearing liabilities of EUR 12.2 million in companies as described above. The bond loan and the revolving credit facility are unsecured.

Contingent liabilities

A number of parent company guarantees have been issued towards suppliers of subsidiaries. These parent company guarantees have prior years been reported under contingent liabilities. The obligations of the group to these suppliers can however never exceed the liabilities already recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. As a consequence, parent company guarantees to suppliers are no longer reported as contingent liabilities.

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value, adjusted for transaction costs, except for financial instruments subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss. For those instruments, transactions costs are recognized immediately in profit and loss. The group is classifying its financial instruments based on the business model applied for groups of financial instruments within the group and whether separate financial instruments meet the criteria for cash flows that are solely being payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The group is classifying its financial instruments into the group's financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit and loss and financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost. However, fair value changes in financial instruments used for cash flow hedges are recognised in other comprehensive income. The table above shows the fair value of financial instruments measured at fair value, or where fair value differs from the carrying amount because the item is recognized at amortised cost (the bond loans). The carrying amount of the groups' other financial assets and liabilities is considered to constitute a good approximation of the fair value since they either carry floating interest rates or are of a non-current nature.

Note 08 Changes to the group structure

Sale and deconsolidation of traded food packaging business on 30 June 2025

On 24 October 2024, BEWI announced an agreement to merge its traded food packaging business with STOK Emballage (STOK). The transaction was completed on 30 June 2025.

The consideration included a cash component and a minority share ownership in the combined company. The share component has initially been valued at zero, since the number of shares to be received is subject to an earn-out component not controlled by BEWI. The sale transaction yielded a net accounting loss of EUR 7.3 million, which is further described below.

Note 09 Discontinued operations

In December 2024, BEWI agreed on the main terms, and on 5 February 2025 entered into an agreement with EcoEnergy Group BV, an international investment firm and the owner of Unipol Holland BV, to combine their respective RAW material businesses to create a leading EPS producer in Europe. The transaction was completed on 8 July 2025. BEWI contributed its RAW segment and EcoEnergy Group BV its raw facility in Unipol Holland BV into a new RAW group. The total value of the BEWI RAW transaction is up to EUR 75 million, subject to adjustments for net working capital and net debt. EUR 30 million was settled on completion, and the remainder is subject to an earn-out agreement.

After the transaction, BEWI owns 49 per cent in the new RAW group. The new RAW group will be recognised in accordance with the equity method. BEWI's share of net profit in the new RAW group will be reported on one line. In the consolidated statement of financial position, BEWI's holding in the RAW group will also be reported on one line. Initially, the book value will correspond to the fair value of BEWI's share-holding, but over time book value will change with, among other things, share of income and dividends from the RAW group.

On 24 October 2024, BEWI entered into agreement to merge its traded food packaging business with STOK Emballage (STOK). The traded food packaging business, that constituted of BEWI Food AS and BEWI Iceland ehf, was reported under the P&C segment and included net sales of approximately EUR 70 million. The transaction combining BEWI's traded food packaging business with STOK was completed on 30 June 2025.

The RAW business and the traded food packing business are both operations that can be clearly distinguished operationally and for financial reporting purposes. RAW is a separate segment and the traded food packaging business has generated separate cash flows in geographically separable areas that constitute a substantial portion of the Packaging & Component segment. As a consequence, both RAW and the traded food packaging business are considered discontinued operations, meaning that both revenues/expenses and assets/liabilities are separated from the rest of the operations in the statement of income and in the statement of financial position. As the proceeds from the transactions exceed the book value of net assets to be divested, no impairment have been recognised as a result of the classification
