2. LETTER FROM CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD

SEMI-ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE 1ST HALF OF 2025

Dear shareholders,

I am pleased to present our semi-annual report for the first six months of 2025. We are operating in a period of dramatic geopolitical and economic change. The significantly different security environment poses challenges, but it also creates opportunities for Colt CZ Group to serve as a reliable partner to both our long-term and new customers from Allied countries. We continually seek ways to strengthen our business model. We have taken several decisive steps that significantly reinforce our role in the defense industry and elevate our Group to a new level.

At the end of August, we announced a strategic transaction – the signing of an agreement to acquire Synthesia Nitrocellulose (SNC). Through this deal, Colt CZ acquires a 51% stake in one of the world's leading suppliers of energetic nitrocellulose based in a NATO member country, with the remaining 49% to follow in the medium term. Nitrocellulose is a critical raw material to produce single and multi-component powders and propellants and is, therefore, essential for manufacturing of ammunition across small, medium, and large calibers. By expanding our operations into this area, we are strengthening our control

over the supply chain and extending our presence into

The acquisition of SNC is a transformational milestone – it moves Colt CZ Group from a mid-size manufacturer of small arms and small-caliber ammunition to a strategic supplier with direct access to a critical element in the defense supply chain. Together with SNC's strong technological capabilities, we are building a unique vertically integrated platform, that contributes to the strategic self-sufficiency of the Czech Republic and our NATO Allies

In the same vein, we continue to advance our small arms business. In June, we strengthened our control over the supply chain in the United States through the acquisition of Valley Steel Stamp (VSS), a specialist in precision machining of key revolver components. This move further deepens our vertical integration and gives us better control over quality, costs, and capacity in this key market.

Our commitment to building trustworthy, long-term partnerships has been reflected in successful business

contracts. In August, Colt Canada signed an agreement to supply 26,000 rifles to the Danish Armed Forces. In September, Česká zbrojovka concluded a new framework agreement with the Czech Army for the supply of small arms and accessories valued up to CZK 4.26 billion. These achievements underscore our ability to win the confidence of some of the most important reference customers within the Alliance.

From a financial performance perspective, we generated total revenues of CZK 11.0 billion, up 13.7% year-on-year. The ammunition segment was the key driver, with revenues surging by 183.6% to CZK 5.2 billion, mainly due to the full consolidation of Sellier & Bellot and strong organic growth. Revenues in the firearms segment declined by 26% yearon-year to CZK 5.8 billion, mainly due to lower deliveries by Colt to the US commercial market and the shift of certain contracts into the second half of the year for both Colt and CZ. Colt Canada was the only entity within this segment to achieve growth, delivering record results.

Letter from Chairman of the Board

Despite the lower performance in the firearms segment, we succeeded in maintaining profitability thanks to our focus on value, product mix, and operational discipline. Profit before tax rose by 50.4% to CZK 1.2 billion, while net profit increased by 50.8% to CZK 919 million. This significant year-on-year growth in key indicators, driven mainly by the Sellier & Bellot acquisition, confirms that our strategic focus on armed forces and diversification across regions and segments is paying off. This resilience, combined with proactive measures such as export price adjustments, enabled us to effectively mitigate the impact of newly introduced tariffs on European exports to the United States, making their effect on our first-half results practically negligible.

Our Group remains financially strong, stable, and growthoriented. We are reaffirming our 2025 outlook, targeting revenues of CZK 25 billion and adjusted EBITDA of CZK 5.5 billion (+/- 10%). This guidance does not reflect the potential impact of the SNC acquisition. Our priorities remain – executing on contracts, developing new products, and closely monitoring key markets.

We remain committed to creating value for our shareholders, safeguarding our brands, and being responsible members of the communities in which we operate. My special thanks go to our employees and partners — without their daily efforts, these results would not be possible. I am confident that Colt CZ Group has everything it takes to meet its ambitions in the second half of the year and beyond.

Sincerely

Jan Drahota Chairman of the Board

4. GROUP RESULTS FOR THE FIRST HALF OF 2025

4.1 Financial Results for the First Half of 2025

Revenues

Compared with the results as at 30 June 2024, revenues for six months ended 30 June 2025 increased 13.7% to CZK 11.0 billion, driven by growth in the ammunition segment and consolidation of Sellier & Bellot for the full six months in 2025 (in 2024, consolidation of Sellier & Bellot was only from 16 May 2024). The firearms segment was affected by weak performance of the US commercial market, lower sales of a number of firearms and by higher seasonality of the business when most sales are realized at the end of the year.

Revenues by Regions

Regionally, revenues generated in the Czech Republic declined by 38.4% to CZK 1,377.5 million as at 30 June 2025. This decline reflects a high comparative base due to significant deliveries to the Czech Ministry of Defence last year that were not repeated this year3. Revenues generated in Europe (excluding the Czech Republic) increased year-on-year by 103.3% to CZK 3,962.8 million for six-months ended 30 June 2025, driven by the consolidation of Sellier & Bellot. Revenues generated in the United States for six-months ended 30 June 2025 declined year-on-year by 3.9% to CZK 4,028.2 million, affected primarily by the weakness of the US commercial market in the firearms segment. Revenues generated in Canada for the first half of 2025 totaled CZK 527.9 million, which represents an 8.0% y-o-y increase. Revenues generated in Africa went up by 136.1% to CZK 132.2 million for six months ended 30 June 2025, due to new orders from both firearms and ammunition segments. Revenues generated in Asia increased year-on-year by 82.5% to CZK 656.8 million for six months ended 30 June 2025, primarily due to the consolidation of Sellier & Bellot and performance of the ammunition segment. In the Latin America region, sales for the first six months of 2025 amounted to CZK 274.2 million, amounting to 30.2% less y-o-y. Sales to other regions reached CZK 55.1 million, 245.2% y-o-y more, driven by new orders in both segments.

3 In July 2025, the Czech Ministry of Defence announced that it approved a new framework agreement with CZUB worth CZK 4.26 billion https://www.pse.cz/en/news/czech-defence-ministry-to-buy-arms-worth-4-26-billion-crowns

The following table shows the breakdown of the Group's revenues by region for the reported periods.

Total 11,014,802 9,690,015 13.7% 100.0%

Firearms segment

The firearms segment includes the design, production, assembly and sale of firearms, tactical accessories and optical mounting solutions for the military and law enforcement, personal defense, hunting, sport shooting, and other commercial uses.

In the first half of 2025, the number of firearms sold went down by 10.3% y-o-y, which amounted to 289,984 units. Sales of long firearms decreased by 16.7% y-o-y to 114,845 units, while sales of handguns recorded a slight decrease of 5.6% y-o-y to 175,139. The main reason for the decrease in firearms sold was the slow performance of the US commercial market in certain product categories, particularly Colt branded products and a shift of some planned orders from Q2 to Q3 2025, which is also reflected by the change in inventories in the P&L. On the contrary, CZ branded products, particularly handguns, recorded an increase in sales.

Revenue from the firearms segment decreased by 26.0% y-o-y in the first half of 2025, to a total of CZK 5.8 billion. This decrease was primarily attributable to continued weakness in the U.S. commercial market and reduced deliveries to the Ministry of Defence of the Czech Republic, which are expected to increase following the signing of a new framework agreement

Ammunition segment

The ammunition segment consists of the design, production and sale of small-caliber ammunition, including pistol and rifle ammunition, together with shotgun shells for hunting, sport shooting, and military and law enforcement, as well as the production and sale of grenades and other military material. It also includes development and production of ammunition manufacturing machinery and tools.

Revenue from the ammunition segment increased by 183.6% y-o-y in the first half of 2025 and amounted to CZK 5.2 billion due to the consolidation of Sellier & Bellot for the full 6 months in the first half of 2025 and organic growth in the ammunition segment in general.

Raw Materials and Consumables Used

The use of raw materials and consumables increased by 2.1% to CZK 5.6 billion for six months ended 30 June 2025, compared to six months ended 30 June 2024, almost unchanged from the same period last year as a result of lower sales in the firearms segment.

Services

The cost of services increased by 21.2% to CZK 1,331.3 million for six months ended 30 June 2025, compared with six months ended 30 June 2024, due to the consolidation of Sellier & Bellot for the full six months in 2025.

The following table includes an overview of firearm units by type sold by the Group for the reported period:

For six months ended 30 June
Number of units 2025 2024 Change in %
Long firearms 114,845 137,840 (16.7%)
Handguns 175,139 185,525 (5.6%)
Total firearms 289,984 323,365 (10.3%)

Personnel Expenses

Personnel expenses increased by 12.4% to CZK 2,502.8 million for six months ended 30 June 2025, compared to six months ended 30 June 2024. The increase in personnel expenses was related to the consolidation of Sellier & Bellot for the full six months in 2025 and payroll increases based on collective agreements in the Czech Republic and the US.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA increased by 61.6% to CZK 2,358.3 million for six months ended 30 June 2025, compared to six months ended 30 June 2024. The increase was primarily thanks to the organic growth of the ammunition segment, which generated higher margins and consolidation of Sellier & Bellot for the full six months 2025 (in 2024 only consolidation of Sellier & Bellot from 16 May 2024).

The adjusted EBITDA in the first half of 2025 amounted to CZK 2,361.1 million, which is up by 19.2% y-o-y, if compared with the adjusted EBITDA for the same six months in 2024. The most significant one-off items were expenses related to the employee stock option plan and cost of M&A. One-off expenses connected with the commodity hedging of Sellier & Bellot had a negative impact on EBITDA adjustments in the first half of 2025. The full breakdown of the EBITDA adjustment can be found in Chapter 7, Alternative Performance Measures.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased by 37.5% to CZK 771.0 million for six months ended 30 June 2025, compared to six months ended 30 June 2024, mainly due to consolidation of Sellier & Bellot for the full six months in 2025, including the impact of the purchase price allocation.

Interest Income and Other Financial Income

Interest income declined by 32.8% y-o-y to CZK 281.0 million for six months ended 30 June 2025, compared to six months ended 30 June 2024. This decrease was primarily related to lower market interest rates and lower cash and cash equivalents given the debt repayments and the payment for VSS acquisition. Other financial income decreased by 96.2% to CZK 3.2 million.

Interest Expense and Other Financial Expenses

Interest expense went down by 0.3% to CZK 556.7 million for six months ended 30 June 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to lower debt levels and the repayment and restructuring of the Company's acquisition-related debt. Other financial expenses increased by 484.8% y-o-y to CZK 373.3 million for six months ended 30 June 2025 as a result of unrealized FX losses. Gains from derivative transactions reached CZK 250.3 million in the first half of 2025, compared with the gains of CZK 13.9 million in the first half of 2024, due to higher income from FX hedging and derivatives transactions.

Profit Before Tax

Profit before tax increased by 50.4% to CZK 1,195.7 million for six months ended 30 June 2025, compared to six months ended 30 June 2024, due to stronger operating profitability and extraordinary items that impacted profit for the first six months of 2024 but were not repeated this year – namely expenses related to the employee stock option plan and revaluation of inventories related to the Sellier & Bellot acquisition.

Income Tax

Income tax for six months ended 30 June 2025 went up by 49.3% to CZK 276.4 million, compared to six months ended 30 June 2024, driven by higher pre-tax profit. The effective tax rate was 23.1% in the first half of 2025, almost unchanged from 23.3% in the first half of 2024.

Net Profit for the Period / Adjusted Profit for the Period

Net Profit for six months ended 30 June 2025 slightly increased by 50.8% to CZK 919.3 million, compared to six months ended 30 June 2024, driven by stronger profitability and extraordinary items that impacted profit for the first six months of 2024 but were not repeated this year – namely expenses related to the employee stock option plan and revaluation of inventories related to Sellier & Bellot acquisition.

Net Profit after tax, adjusted for extraordinary items, decreased by 1.3% and amounted to CZK 1,002.0 million for six months ended 30 June 2025, compared to the same period in 2024.

Capital expenditures

Capital expenditures of the Group in the first half of 2025 reached CZK 362.0 million, 5.7% more y-o-y, which corresponds to a 3.3% share of the 6M 2025 revenues. Over 73% of investments were related to the production subsidiaries in the Czech Republic, 24% to North America and the rest to subsidiaries in other countries.

4.2 Acquisition of VSS

On 16 June 2025, Colt CZ acquired Valley Steel Stamp Inc., a Massachusetts corporation. VSS is a wellestablished manufacturer of firearm components and had been a long-term supplier to Colt CZ Group in the United States. Headquartered in Greenfield, Massachusetts, the company employs approximately 150 people. In 2024, VSS generated USD 44.3 million in revenue from its firearm manufacturing operations. After the acquisition, Valley Steel Stamp will continue to operate under its existing trade name. Operations unrelated to firearms production were excluded from the transaction.

The strategic rationale for the transaction is to achieve vertical integration in selected product categories. With this acquisition, Colt CZ Group has gained control of high-quality precision machining company, which serves as a key supplier of revolver frames, cylinders, spare parts, and other firearm components for the commercial market. The acquisition also significantly strengthens the Group's engineering and manufacturing capabilities located in the United States and is expected to improve profit margins for its commercial market products.

The purchase price fully paid on closing was USD 59.5 million, before adjustment for working capital and cash, and represented a multiple of 5.0x 2024 EBITDA. The acquired company has been consolidated into the Group's financials as of 16 June 2025. The transaction was financed entirely with the Company's existing cash resources.

4.3 Strategy and Outlook

Outlook for the Second Half of 2025

In line with previous announcements, Colt CZ continues to see major global business opportunities in the military and law enforcement segment. Cooperation with NATO and EU member countries, along with the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA), remains a top priority. At the same time, the Group acknowledges the growing importance of other markets, mainly in Asia. Winning tenders and timely executing signed contracts are other prerequisites for fulfilling this outlook. In addition, maintaining profitability and retaining margins in the firearms segment, especially in the US market, remains one of the Company's goals also for the rest of 2025.

During the first half 2025, Colt CZ closely monitored discussions regarding the introduction of U.S. tariffs on European goods and proactively implemented measures aimed at protecting its profitability, particularly at the EBITDA level. The Group was able to adjust prices of the affected exports in time, resulting in zero impact of the tariffs on its financial results for the first half of 2025.

On 27 July 2025, President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen and President of the United States Donald J. Trump reached an agreement on tariffs and trade. Under the terms of this agreement, a 15% tariff was imposed on most European imports into the United States. This measure directly affects exports by the Group's subsidiaries in both the firearms and ammunition segments, namely Česká zbrojovka and Sellier & Bellot.

It should be noted, however, that the Company does not perceive a material difference between the newly introduced 15% tariffs and the 10% tariffs implemented earlier in April of this year.

Colt CZ estimates that approximately 10% of its sales in the U.S. market will be affected by the newly imposed 15% tariffs. As a result, the Group does not anticipate a material impact on its planned consolidated revenues. Nonetheless, a potential adverse effect on operating profitability, particularly at the EBITDA level, in the low single-digit percentage range cannot be ruled out.

Despite this, Colt CZ does not consider the development sufficient grounds for a revision of its full-year guidance, as the guidance remains achievable through stronger-than-expected performance in other geographic markets or customer segments.

In view of the above, the Group confirms its outlook for 2025:

In billion CZK Guidance
Colt CZ Group
Revenues 25 (+/- 10%)
Adjusted EBITDA 5.5 (+/- 10%)

The main risks to achieving the 2025 outlook remain: a. potential deterioration in the US commercial market, in combination with the global economic slowdown, b. delays in executing major orders in the military and law enforcement segment, c. delays in launching new products on the market, and d. adverse FX developments affecting the conversion to CZK, namely the strengthening of the Czech koruna against US dollar from the first quarter of 2025.

On the other hand, potential upside factors for the outlook include a. successful award and completion of new large contracts in 2025, and b. the impact of product reselling from other manufacturers.

The outlook for 2025 was broken down by quarters to reflect the seasonality of financial results, which is influenced by the scheduled deliveries of large orders for the military and law enforcement segment, was updated as follows:

The Group confirms that the capital expenditures of the Group in 2025 could reach CZK 1.1 – 1.3 billion, which corresponds to a roughly 5% share of the 2025 expected revenues, which is in line with the medium-term target of the Company.

In billion CZK Q1 Actual Q2 Actual Q3 Q4 2025e
Revenues 5.5 5.5 5.0 9.0 25
Adjusted EBITDA 1.2 1.1 1.2 2.0 5.5

4.4 Impact of the Russian Invasion of Ukraine and Other International Aspects on the Group in the First Half of 2025

On 24 February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. This invasion is part of the Russian military intervention in Ukraine and the culmination of the Russian-Ukrainian crisis. After the first few weeks of the conflict, the Russian invasion of Ukraine became the largest military operation in Europe since WWII. Responding to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the EU adopted several measures and imposed sanctions against Russia and Belarus, complementing existing sanctions and restrictions imposed by the EU since 2014.

Revenues from the sale of the Group's products to countries sanctioned by the EU (Russia, Belarus) represented approximately 0.2% of the total volume of sales prior to the Russian invasion.

However, the war in Ukraine itself did not affect the Group's performance more than, for example, the weakness of the commercial market in the USA, which has been affecting the Group's sales since 2023. The production facilities in North America, specifically in the USA and Canada, have not been directly impacted by the Russian invasion of Ukraine in the first half of 2025.

The current security situation and the armed conflict in Ukraine provided the Group with new opportunities from M/LE customers, mainly from the NATO countries. However, more detailed information about business contracts related to the war in Ukraine cannot be disclosed, as these are by large of confidential facts and information. The Group also sees future business opportunities in connection with the conflict in Ukraine in the production and sale of ammunition. The Group's subsidiaries actively participate in the Czech Ammunition Initiative project, which aims to supply Ukraine with the most needed types of ammunition through purchase and resale.

In July 2024, the Group's subsidiaries, CZUB and Sellier & Bellot, signed contracts with the Ukrainian state company Ukroboronprom as part of Czech-Ukrainian intergovernmental consultations. Sellier & Bellot and Ukroboronprom have agreed to cooperate in the production of multiple types of smallcaliber ammunition in Ukraine, where Sellier & Bellot will supply the Ukrainian side with technology to produce ammunition. The operation and management of the production plant, including the installed technologies, is the responsibility of the Ukrainian partners.

Česká zbrojovka, signed a transfer of technology contract for the assembly of CZ BREN 2 rifles in Ukraine. The impact on the Group caused by the introduction of import tariffs in the US is described in section 4.3 Strategy and Outlook.

Decision on Profit Distribution and Dividend Payment

In June 2025, the General Meeting of the Company decided outside the General Meeting (per rollam decision) to distribute the profit for 2024 and the dividend payment.

A profit in the amount of CZK 846,945,420 for 2024 shall be distributed among the shareholders of the Company as a dividend and paid to the Company's shareholders in cash. The calculation of the share in the profit per one share is based on the total number of shares issued by the Company. The dividend payout for 2024 is CZK 15 per share before tax. In accordance with Czech legislation, the applicable tax will be withheld (deducted) by the Company before the payout is made. The record date for exercising the right to a share in the profit is 4 July 2025. This means that the right to a share in the profit will be enjoyed by the persons who are shareholders of the Company as of the record date.

The remaining profit for 2024 in the amount of CZK 143,808,537.89 was transferred to the account of retained (accumulated) earnings of previous years.

Commencement of the Share Buy-back

On 30 June 2025, the General Meeting of the Company adopted a resolution outside its meeting (per rollam) approving the acquisition of its own shares. According to this resolution, the Company may acquire a maximum of 3,373,660 of its own shares for a period not exceeding five years for a price ranging from CZK 0.10 to CZK 1,500 per share.

Within the limits determined by the above-mentioned decision of the General Meeting and in accordance with applicable legislation, the Board of Directors of the Company approved on 30 June 2025 the following terms of the program for the share buy-back of its own shares on the regulated market (the "Program"):

  • (a) Purpose of the Program: The acquisition of its own shares for (i) fulfilling the Company's obligations arising from existing or future share option programs for employees and members of the Group's governing bodies and/or (ii) for use as stock consideration to pay the purchase price in the context of future acquisitions.
  • (b) Maximum amount allocated to the Program: The maximum monetary amount allocated to the Program is set at CZK 847 million.
  • (c) Duration of the Program: The Program will run for a maximum period of one year from the General Meeting's resolution, i.e., until 29 June 2026, or until the maximum amount allocated to the Program is reached, whichever is earlier.
  • (d) Maximum Volume: A maximum of 1,300,000 of the Company's shares will be acquired under the Program.
  • (e) Price range approved by the General Meeting: The lowest purchase price is CZK 0.10, and the highest purchase price is CZK 1,500 per share.

(f) Regulatory requirements under Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council on market abuse ("MAR"):

  • Price limit: The Company will not purchase shares at a price higher than the higher of the following two values: the price of the last independent trade and the highest current independent bid in the trading system where the purchase is carried out.
  • Volume limit: The volume of shares purchased under the Program on a single day shall not, in accordance with Art. 3(3)(a) of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052, exceed 25% of the average daily volume of the Company's shares traded on the relevant regulated market in the month preceding the month of the Program's disclosure. For the purposes of the commencement of the Program, this average was calculated from the average daily volume for May 2025 and amounts to 11,817 shares issued by the Company per day. Above the regulatory requirements, the Company has limited the volume of shares purchased in a single day so that the number of shares purchased under the Program on a specific trading day of the Program's execution shall in no case exceed 50% of the shares traded in the trading system on that trading day.
  • (g) Disclosure obligation: The Company will, in accordance with MAR, duly inform the relevant supervisory authority (the Czech National Bank), the regulated market operator (Prague Stock Exchange) and the public of all transactions carried out under the Program, no later than by the end of the seventh trading day following the day of such transaction.

The Company appointed WOOD & Company Financial Services, a securities broker, to execute the share buy-back under the Program. The share buy-back commenced on the regulated market organized by the Prague Stock Exchange, a.s. on 7 July 2025.

7. ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES

This report contains certain financial measures that are not defined or recognized under IFRS and which are considered to be alternative performance measures as defined in the ESMA Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority on 5 October 2015 (the "Alternative Performance Measures"). This report presents the following Alternative Performance Measures: EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, net profit margin, adjusted net profit, adjusted net profit margin, adjusted net earnings per share, and net financial debt and net leverage ratio. The Company uses the Alternative Performance Measures because they serve its management as key measures in assessing the Group's operating performance. Further, management believes that the presentation of the Alternative Performance Measures is helpful to prospective investors because these, as well as other similar measures and related ratios, are widely used by certain investors, securities analysts and other interested parties as supplemental measures of performance and liquidity to evaluate the efficiency of a company's operations and its ability to employ its earnings toward repayment of debt, capital expenditures, and working capital requirements. Management also believes that the presentation of Alternative Performance Measures facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis to exclude the impact of items that management does not consider being indicative of the Group's core operating performance.

The Alternative Performance Measures are not sourced directly from the financial statements but are derived from the financial information contained therein. These measures have not been audited or reviewed by an independent auditor. They are not defined in the IFRS and should neither be treated as metrics of financial performance or operating cash flows nor deemed an alternative to information about profit. The Alternative Performance Measures should only be read as additional information to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the financial information prepared in accordance with the IFRS. The Alternative Performance Measures should not be given more prominence than measures sourced directly from the financial statements. The Alternative Performance Measures should be read in conjunction with the financial statements. There are no generally accepted principles governing the calculation of the Alternative Performance Measures. The criteria upon which the Alternative Performance Measures are based can vary from company to company, limiting the usefulness of such

measures as comparative measures. Even though the Alternative Performance Measures are used by management to assess the Group's financial results, and are commonly used by investors, they have important limitations as analytical tools and by themselves do not provide a sufficient basis to compare the Company's performance to that of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute to the revenue, profit before tax or cash flows from operations calculated in accordance with IFRS to analyze the Group's position or results. The Alternative Performance Measures have limitations as analytical tools, such as:

  • ▶ They do not reflect the Group's cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments.
  • ▶ They do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Group's working capital needs.
  • ▶ They do not reflect the significant interest expense, or related cash requirements, to service interest or principal payments on the Group's debt.
  • ▶ Although depreciation and amortization are non-monetary charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often need to be replaced in the future and the Alternative Performance Measures do not reflect any cash requirements that would be required for such replacements.
  • ▶ Some of the exceptional items the Company eliminates in calculating the Alternative Performance Measures reflect cash payments that were or will be made in the future.
  • ▶ Other companies in the Group's industry may calculate the Alternative Performance Measures differently than the Company, which limits their usefulness as comparative measures.
  • ▶ The terms used for alternative measures may not have the same or similar meaning as other terms that may be defined in other documentation for other financial liabilities of the Group.
  • ▶ Alternative measures presented in this semi-annual year financial report may differ from alternative measures in annual and semi-annual financial reports from previous periods. To assess the Group's financial performance, the Company uses such Alternative Performance Measures that it deems relevant and indicative of its financial position in a given year.

(1) The Group's management considers EBITDA a key performance indicator in evaluating the Group's business. As described above, EBITDA is not a measure of performance defined or recognized under IFRS. The Group calculates EBITDA based on the figures included in the interim financial statements. EBITDA is defined as post-tax profit for the monitored period, plus income tax less other financial revenues, plus other financial expenses less interest revenue, plus interest expense, less share of profit of associates, and profit from investments in associated companies after tax, adjusted by gains or losses from derivatives operations, and plus depreciation and amortization. All items of the EBITDA calculation are based on the consolidated statement of profit or loss and statement of comprehensive income in the interim financial statements and the unaudited interim financial statements.

(2) An EBITDA margin is defined as EBITDA divided by revenues from the sale of the Group's own products, goods, and services expressed as a percentage. All items of the EBITDA margin calculation are based on the consolidated statement of profit or loss and statement of comprehensive income in the interim financial statements and the unaudited interim financial statements.

(3) Adjusted EBITDA for the first half of 2025 is defined as EBITDA less one-off items related to M&A expenses and legacy costs related to acquisitions, payments related to the employee stock option plan and one-off expenses connected with the commodity hedging of Sellier & Bellot, which are unrelated to operational performance and value creation in the given period. Adjusted EBITDA for the first half of 2024 is defined as EBITDA less one-off items related to acquisitions, payments related to the employee stock option plan, and one-off expenses connected with the acquisition of Sellier & Bellot – inventory step up and commodity hedging. Expenses on professional advisors and expenses associated with acquisitions are presented under "Services" in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the interim financial statements. The ESOP related costs are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and statement of comprehensive income, under "Personnel costs" and "Other operating expenses".

(4) Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by revenues from the sale of the Group's own products, goods, and services expressed as a percentage. All items of the adjusted EBITDA margin calculation are based on the consolidated statement of profit or loss and statement of comprehensive income.

(5) Net income margin is defined as profit for the period as a percentage of revenue from the sale of the Group's own products, goods, and services, each as shown in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the interim financial statements and the unaudited interim financial statements.

(6) In the first half of 2025, net profit was adjusted by one-off items related to M&A expenses and legacy costs, payments related to the employee stock option plan, one-off expenses connected with the acquisition of Sellier & Bellot –commodity hedging, bank fees related with acquisition loan, cancellation of IRS and financing cost related to bond issue, which are unrelated to operational performance and value creation in the given period. In the first half 2024, net profit was adjusted by one-off items related to acquisitions, payments related to the employee stock option plan, and one-off expenses connected with the acquisition of Sellier & Bellot – inventory step up and commodity hedging. One-off costs of the issue of bonds and bank financing are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and statement of comprehensive income, under "Other financial expenses".

(7) Adjusted net income margin is defined as adjusted profit for the period as a percentage of revenue from the sale of the Group's own products, goods, and services as shown in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the interim financial statements and the unaudited interim financial statements.

(8) The Group calculated adjusted net earnings per share as adjusted net profit for the period divided by an average number of shares issued by the Company. All items of the adjusted net earnings per share are based on the consolidated statement of profit or loss and statement of comprehensive income.

(9) The Group defines net financial debt as long-term and short-term bank bonds, loans, and borrowings and lease payables (non-current and current), less cash and cash equivalents and other financial assets as reported in the audited financial statements and the unaudited interim financial statements. Net financial debt is used by the Group to assess its indebtedness to financial institutions, including banks, lease companies, and bond investors.

3. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS IN THE CURRENT REPORTING PERIOD

The financial situation and financial performance of the Group were affected by the following events and transactions on a one-off basis:

As of 1 January 2025, Mr Radek Musil was elected Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company.

As of 31 March 2025, Mr Dennis Veilleux resigned from the position of member of the Board of Directors of the Company.

During the first quarter of 2025, the Company sold part of the COLTCZ VAR/30 bonds maturing in 2030 with a nominal value of CZK 483 million. The Company purchased from the market COLTCZ VAR/27 bonds maturing in 2027 in the same nominal amount. This step reduced the volume of bonds maturing in 2027 and at the same time extended the average maturity of the total debt financing.

On 16 June 2025, the Group completed the acquisition of all shares in New England Expert Technologies Corp., which owns Valley Steel Stamp Inc. ("VSS"). More detailed information about this transaction is provided in Note 8.

On 30 June 2025, the Company's General Meeting decided on the distribution of profit for the year 2024 and the dividend payment. The dividend payout for 2024 is CZK 15 per share before tax.

On 30 June 2025, the Company's General Meeting adopted a resolution approving the acquisition of its own shares. According to this resolution, the Company may acquire up to 3,373,660 of its own shares at a price ranging from CZK 0.10 to CZK 1,500 per share for a period not exceeding five years. The maximum amount allocated to the share buyback program on the regulated market is set at CZK 847 million.

On 30 June 2025, Mr Vladimír Dlouhý resigned from his position as a member of the Company's Supervisory Board. His position as a member of the Company's Supervisory Board will remain temporarily vacant.

4. BASIC PRINCIPLES FOR PREPARATION OF THE INTERIM REPORT

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six-month period ended 30 June 2025 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all notes that are normally included in the annual financial statements. Accordingly, the condensed interim consolidated financial statements must be read together with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024, which were prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union ("IFRS").

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not been reviewed by an auditor in accordance with applicable regulations.

EUROPEAN UNION (UNAUDITED)

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies that were utilized are consistent with those of the most recent annual financial statements. A number of new or amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period. The Group did not have to change its accounting policies or make retrospective adjustments as a result of adopting these standards.

6. ESTIMATES AND SOURCES OF UNCERTAINTY

During the preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the Group's management makes judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses. The actual results may differ from these estimates. Apart from this, the Group's future business may be adversely impacted by factors beyond the Group's control. In the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the significant judgements made by management and the key sources of uncertainty in making estimates were the same as those used in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.

7. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group's activities give rise to many financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all financial information on risk management and other information required in annual consolidated financial statements. They should be assessed together with the annual consolidated financial statements of the Group as at 31 December 2024. No changes in the rules and policies of managing these risks have been made since the end of 2024.

The Group uses financial derivatives to manage financial risks. The method of measurement of financial derivatives and information on the fair value of financial assets and liabilities as at 30 June 2025 and 31 December 2024 are disclosed in Note 19 Financial assets and liabilities at fair value.

8. ACQUISITION OF VALLEY STEEL STAMP INC.

On 16 June 2025, the Group completed the acquisition of all shares in New England Expert Technologies Corp., which owns Valley Steel Stamp Inc. ("VSS").

VSS is a well-established manufacturer of firearm components and has been a long-term supplier to Colt CZ Group in the United States. Headquartered in Greenfield, Massachusetts, the company employs approximately 150 people. In 2024, VSS generated USD 44.3 million in revenue from its firearms operations. Following the acquisition, Valley Steel Stamp will continue to operate under its existing trade name. VSS will be consolidated into Group's financials as of 16 June 2025. The transaction was financed entirely with Company's existing cash resources.

Revenues from the sale of VSS's own products, goods, and services from the date of acquisition to 30 June 2025, amount to CZK 25,406 thousand. Pro-forma revenues from the sale of VSS's own products, goods, and services from 1 January 2025 to 30 June 2025, amount to CZK 415,652 thousand. Most of these revenues represent intercompany sales, which are eliminated on consolidation.

The operating result from the date of acquisition to 30 June 2025 represents a profit of CZK 12,015 thousand. The pro-forma operating result from 1 January 2025 to 30 June 2025 represents a profit of CZK 4,861 thousand.

19. FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES AT FAIR VALUE

This note provides an update on the judgements and estimates made by the Group in determining the fair value of financial instruments since the last annual financial statements.

As at 30 June 2025, assets and liabilities represent financial derivatives and share-based payment arrangements.

19.1. Financial derivatives

The fair value of interest rate swaps, commodity swaps, currency forwards and swaps is based on the present value of future cash flows based on market data as yield curves of referential interest rate and commodity swaps, spot foreign exchange rates and forward points. For currency and interest rate options, the respective option model is used (primarily the Black-Scholes model or its modifications), with the specific input data including the volatility of currency exchange rates and interest rates reflecting specific realization rates of individual transactions ("volatility smile"). The fair value of crosscurrency interest rate swaps is determined as the present value of future cash flows. The estimate of future variable cash flows is based on quoted swap rates and interbank deposit rates. The estimated future cash flows are discounted using a revenue curve constructed from the above sources.

The fair values of derivative transactions are classified as level 2, whereby the market data used in models originate from active markets.

The following table provides an overview of nominal values and positive or negative fair values of open trading derivatives as at 30 June 2025 and 31 December 2024 (CZK '000):
