Interim Management Report

This section focuses on Viohalco's business performance for the period ended 30 June 2025. Interim financial statements, prepared in accordance with IAS 34, are presented on pages 16 to 36.

Robust performance delivered across business segments increases profitability amid a volatile environment

Consolidated financial highlights

  • Revenue increased by 14% year-on-year amounting to EUR 3.7 billion (H1 2024: EUR 3.3 billion), mainly thanks to higher sales volumes and prices.
  • Operational profitability (a-EBITDA) grew 39% year-on-year to EUR 378 million (H1 2024: EUR 273 million), due to a continuous shift toward higher margin product categories and disciplined cost management.
  • Profit before income tax up 104% to EUR 229 million (H1 2024: EUR 112 million), with particularly strong growth in the aluminium and cables segments and a gradual recovery in the steel segment.
  • Profit after income tax increased by 102% to EUR 177 million (H1 2024: EUR 87 million).
  • Net debt amounted to EUR 1,708 million (FY 2024: 1,513 million), due to the increased working capital requirements, supporting the growth of the segments; net debt/EBITDA at 2.4x (FY 2024: 2.5x).

The revenue of the industrial division amounted to EUR 3.7 billion. The operational profitability (a-EBITDA) of the industrial division amounted to EUR 367 million.

Viohalco's industrial division comprises the following segments: aluminium, copper, cables, steel pipes and steel.

  • Aluminium: significant improvement in revenue and profitability. Continued sales volume increases at Elval, despite macroeconomic challenges.
  • Copper: revenue growth primarily driven by higher average LME metal prices. Profitability affected by the unfavourable sales mix, higher energy costs and decrease in accounting metal results.
  • Cables: notable increases in revenue and profitability thanks to expanded capacity, coupled with high-capacity utilization across all production lines and smooth execution of robust order backlog. Projects business revenue up by a significant 63%. Positive impact from continued healthy margins at low and medium voltage power cables. Substantial order backlog of EUR 2.8 billion demonstrates resilience amid a complex geopolitical landscape. Comprehensive capital expenditure programme yielding results, with key investments aimed at expanding onshore cable production in Thiva and Eleonas facilities, Greece, as well as a new manufacturing facility in Baltimore, Maryland, USA.
  • Steel pipes: strong performance supported by targeted capacity-enhancing investments driving higher production volumes and a favourable project mix, which led to record-high profitability margins. Demand driven by high energy prices and ongoing need for alternative natural gas transportation routes. Solid order backlog at EUR 560 million and order intake of EUR 350 million, above H1 2025 revenue. Successful commissioning and operation of a new Concrete Weight Coating (CWC) facility at Corinth Pipeworks's facility in Thisvi, Greece.

Steel: gradual recovery despite adverse market conditions and low demand in Europe. Increased demand for reinforcing and mesh steel products in key markets (including Greece and Balkans), combined with modest price increases, offset weaker performance across the rest of the product portfolio. Continued focus on improving energy efficiency, as well as optimizing resource allocation.

Sustainability

During the first half of 2025, all Viohalco subsidiaries continued the implementation of the long-term sustainability strategy. The subsidiaries focused on a structured and unified approach to sustainability and continued building upon the comprehensive Double Materiality Assessment (DMA) conducted in 2024, in full alignment with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS).

In parallel, the subsidiaries continued to closely monitor developments under the Omnibus EU Legislation, which introduces substantial regulatory updates affecting sustainability reporting, supply chain due diligence and sustainable finance requirements. By staying ahead of these regulatory changes, Viohalco companies ensure that their practices remain fully compliant, while proactively adapting our reporting frameworks and sustainability strategies to meet evolving European requirements.

Outlook

Building on a strong first-half performance, Viohalco enters the second half of 2025 with confidence, despite a persistently challenging macroeconomic backdrop. The companies' strategic initiatives - focused on operational efficiency, product mix optimization and targeted investments in high-growth segments - are delivering tangible results.

Viohalco companies' well-diversified portfolio and strong alignment with global megatrends continue to provide a solid foundation for long-term growth. This is evident in the growing demand for aluminium and copper, and significant order backlogs within the cables and steel pipes businesses, which reinforce the companies' prospects. Furthermore, as the European steel sector prepares for potential shifts in policy during the second half of the year, Viohalco's steel segment remains well positioned to capture opportunities from potential improvement in market conditions.

Finally, Viohalco's real estate division continues to successfully execute its investment strategy by transforming underutilized assets from its captive pipeline into income generating properties and pursuing selective investment opportunities that enhance its portfolio with modern, high-quality, and environmentally sustainable assets.

Performance review by division

The industrial division

Aluminium

ElvalHalcor's aluminium segment demonstrated resilience despite the adverse geopolitical and economic environment, with sales volumes increasing by 2.8% compared to H1 2024. Growth was primarily driven by strong demand from the packaging industry, particularly in flexible packaging, where sales volume rose by more than 7% year-on-year. Revenue for the period amounted to EUR 1,154 million (H1 2024: 969 million). Despite high energy prices, profitability was supported by a significant improvement in accounting metal results, which shifted to gains of EUR 9 million compared to losses of EUR 10.5 million in H1 2024. As a result, profit before taxes for the segment amounted to EUR 61,1 million, up from EUR 1.6 million in the prior-year period.

Despite the challenging operating environment that Bridgnorth Aluminium faced during the first half of 2025, impacting operational performance, cost control and the company's product mix, there has been a significant increase in a-EBITDA compared to previous years, driven by stronger sales volume.

H1 2025 marked strong progress for the Etem Gestamp JV in delivering solid returns on investment, supported by improved operational efficiency and disciplined capital allocation. EBITDA for the period reached 18% of sales, a significant improvement from 2% in the prior year. This was driven by a more favourable product mix and ongoing efficiency initiatives, reflecting the effective execution of the company's investment and operational strategies.

Outlook

Looking ahead, the global aluminium industry is entering a transformative era, shaped by innovation, sustainability and long-term growth. Demand is accelerating, driven by megatrends, such as market expectations for packaging solutions with higher recycled content, the need for more energy-efficient infrastructure and the rapid expansion of electric and lightweight mobility solutions. In response, the aluminium segment has undertaken a series of timely, state-of-the-art investments in recent years, expanding production capacity and reinforcing technological capabilities. These strategic initiatives now enable the segment to not only meet evolving customer needs, but to broaden its product portfolio and capture emerging growth opportunities across promising markets. Building on this solid foundation, the aluminium segment is ready to capitalise on the increase in global aluminium demand, while remaining firmly committed to strengthening its competitive advantages and advancing a sustainable, resilient aluminium value chain through long-standing partnerships and continuous technological advancements.

Looking ahead to the second half of the year, Bridgnorth Aluminium is well positioned to progress opportunities in the US market. Strategic priorities remain focused on strengthening operational resilience, enhancing quality and improving cost efficiency, ensuring that Bridgnorth Aluminium can meet evolving customer requirements and deliver long-term value.

At the Etem Gestamp JV, positive Free Cash Flow (FCF) generation remains a key target for 2025, while the five-year investment plan nears completion. At the same time, the company continues to actively pursue opportunities in other markets to further strengthen its foundation for sustainable growth.

Copper

Copper segment revenue increased by 5% to EUR 945 million in H1 2025, from EUR 899 million in H1 2024. This growth was primarily driven by higher average LME prices for copper and a product mix with a lower portion of zinc. The average LME price for copper rose to EUR 8,641/tn, from EUR 8,409/tn in H1 2024. Similarly, the average LME price for zinc increased to EUR 2,516/tn, compared to EUR 2,442/tn in the prior-year period. LME metal prices saw a notable increase during the first quarter of the year, before easing in late March amid growing concerns over potential trade tariffs.

Despite challenging macroeconomic conditions across all segments of the economy, sales volume increased by 1% year-on-year. Higher sales of copper tube products and bus bars, in particular,

supported this positive momentum. Demand for bus bars produced by Sofia Med was primarily driven by data centers and power network applications, especially in the U.S. market. Conversely, sales of flat-rolled products declined slightly, reflecting heightened competition and adverse market dynamics. Despite the subdued economic backdrop, sales volumes to the energy and power networks industry and building and construction rose by 8.3% and 2.4%, respectively. Operational profitability of the segment (a-EBITDA) decreased by 5% year-on-year, amounting to EUR 58 million in H1 2025 versus EUR 61 million in H1 2024. This decline was mainly attributable to high energy costs and a shift in the sales mix.

Profit before tax stood at EUR 38 million in H1 2025, down from EUR 54 million in H1 2024. The reduction was primarily due to a EUR 19.3 million decrease in accounting metal results, which shifted from a profit of EUR 17.4 million in H1 2024 to a loss of EUR 1.8 million in H1 2025.

Investment initiatives during the reporting period were aimed at enhancing production capacity and expanding the range of Sofia Med's existing product portfolio.

Outlook

Looking ahead, the copper segment is expected to benefit from robust demand in strategic applications, particularly in energy transition, power networks, data center infrastructure and HVAC, where the segment is well-positioned. While the construction industry remains constrained by persistent macroeconomic headwinds, demand for building applications has shown encouraging resilience. Market conditions for flat-rolled products are anticipated to remain competitive, requiring a disciplined commercial approach and product differentiation. Volatility in LME prices and energy costs is likely to continue to influence short-term performance. However, ongoing efficiency initiatives, optimised working capital management, and recent capacity-enhancing investments at Sofia Med are expected to strengthen competitiveness and support long-term growth, facilitating further net debt reduction. With U.S. exports accounting for 8% of total copper sales in H1 2025, the segment continues to carefully monitor tariff-related developments and remains ready to respond to any shifts in demand. As a key player in the global copper industry, the segment is dedicated to delivering innovative, tailored solutions that meet the diverse needs of its global customer base.

Cables

The cables segment delivered a robust performance in H1 2025, with revenue up by a significant 37.3% year-on-year to EUR 731 million. Profit before taxes rose to EUR 90 million, an 84% increase year-on-year, with margins expanding to 16.3%, up from 14.2% in the prior-year period. The notable improvement in profitability was driven by the higher revenue contribution and consistently strong margins of the projects business, while the cables products business sustained solid profitability, supported by steady demand and effective margin management.

Throughout H1 2025, Hellenic Cables maintained strong momentum in tendering activity, achieving several new awards, such as a turnkey contract from Réseau de Transport d'Électricité (RTE), in partnership with Asso.subsea, for the 225kV HVAC export cables of the Dunkerque Offshore Wind Farm in France and the supply of 230kV submarine cables for the Silver Run Expansion Project in the United States. Overall, Hellenic Cables secured over EUR 200 million of new orders, including both for projects and framework contracts, despite the volatile macroeconomic environment. As a result, the order backlog of the segment reached EUR 2.77 billion by 30 June 2025 (31.12.2024: EUR 3.01 billion).

At the same time, successful execution of existing projects continued, with several key projects either fully or partially delivered. Significant progress was achieved with the installation for the turnkey project Ostwind 3 (220kV export cable system) in Germany for 50Hertz, while the production of both the export and inter-array cables for Thor OWF in Denmark was completed. Furthermore, the production of several other projects, such as the export cables for Baltyk II OWF in Poland and the interconnection of DolWin Kappa platform in Germany and the inter-array cables for the Eoliennes en Mer Dieppe Le Tréport OWF in France and East Anglia 3 OWF in the UK progressed as planned.

Outlook

Continued execution of the segment's high order backlog remains the cornerstone of its positive

financial outlook for the remainder of 2025 and into the medium term. The segment has already expanded its offshore cables business line, is progressing with the onshore cables expansion in Greece and continues to advance its strategic investment in the U.S. onshore cables market.

Global trends, such as the rising electricity demand, electrification, grid modernization in developed economies, and the accelerating shift towards in renewable energy generation in Europe, are expected to persist over the next decade. These trends elevate the strategic importance of the cables industry, directly supporting the segment's expansion plans and strengthening its order pipeline. Demand for LV and MV power cables remains robust, with additional volume secured through longterm framework contracts, further reinforcing the segment's growth trajectory.

Steel pipes

The steel pipes segment sustained its strong momentum into 2025, delivering 11.1% year-on-year growth in revenue to EUR 277 million, and a 53.4% increase in profit before taxes to EUR 40.3 million. This robust performance led to a record-high a-EBITDA margin of 18.2%, up from 16.1% in H1 2024, supported by targeted capacity-enhancing investments, which enabled higher production volumes and a high-margin project mix. High energy prices and the ongoing need for alternative natural gas transportation routes continued to drive demand for pipelines. Additionally, specific projects aligned with the energy transition agenda were revived and fast-tracked into execution.

During H1 2025, the segment manufactured and successfully executed significant projects, including the OMV Petrom's Neptun deep offshore gas pipeline (162Km with outside diameter of 30" manufactured in the LSAW mill) in Romania and several pipes for Snam in Italy. The majority of these are certified to transport up to 100% of hydrogen including parts of the Adriatica gas infrastructure and large diameter pipeline projects for the U.S. and Israeli customers, as well as HFW offshore pipelines for projects in the North Sea and Norwegian sea. As of 30 June 2025, the order backlog for the steel pipes segment reached EUR 560 million, up from EUR 430 million at year-end 2024. This increase reflects the successful award of several high-profile projects, reinforcing the segment's strong market positioning. Key new awards include contracts for the Adriatica pipeline project in Italy of more than 180km and a 41km LSAW pipeline for the HyNet CO2 Pipeline in Liverpool Bay (CCS) in the United Kingdom.

Outlook

The steel pipes segment continues to build on its strong market position, supported by high-capacity utilization, improved profitability and a growing backlog of strategic projects. Recent investments in capacity enhancement, production optimization and advanced downstream capabilities have created a solid foundation for capturing new growth opportunities.

Looking ahead, Corinth Pipeworks anticipates continued demand for natural gas infrastructure, which remains the dominant transitional fuel globally. In parallel, the energy transition is driving short-term demand for Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) projects and longer-term investment in hydrogen infrastructure - both areas where Corinth Pipeworks has established itself as a market leader.

Steel

Revenue in the steel segment grew to EUR 552 million in H1 2025, from EUR 540 million in H1 2024, supported by higher sales volumes year-on-year which offset decreases in pricing. The segment returned to profitability, with a profit before income tax of EUR 6 million (H1 2024: EUR 22 million loss).

During H1 2025, the European construction market experienced a further 5% slowdown year-on-year, following the steep decline which started in Q2 2022 and continued throughout 2023 and 2024. Production output remained close to historically low levels of 126 Mt observed in 2023.

The EU steel industry is facing critical challenges that undermine its competitiveness and threaten its long-term viability. Persistent global overcapacity, high energy and production costs, and subdued demand across multiple sectors are creating significant risks to the industry's sustainability and its ability to invest and progress on its decarbonisation pathway.

Despite such market challenges, the steel segment was able to achieve a solid operational performance with EBITDA at EUR 38 million (H1 2024: EUR 11 million). This trend was mainly due to increased demand and slightly better spreads for reinforcing steel and mesh products driven by the strength of the Greek construction market.

Outlook

Looking ahead, the construction sector in Greece is expected to maintain its growth momentum throughout 2025. This positive trend, coupled with optimized resource management across all production sites, will continue to support steel segment performance. By contrast, European steel demand in the construction and manufacturing sectors is projected to remain subdued, as near-term cyclical pressures – such as weak demand and falling spot prices - persist. Nevertheless, the EU steel sector remains cautious but attentive, anticipating a wave of critical policy announcements in H2 2025, including steel trade defence measures and the CBAM review in Q3 and Q4 respectively, which will have direct implications for producers.

Additionally, the company completed the new prime office at 16 Himarras str, in Maroussi, Athens, Greece.

Subsequent events

On July 7, 2025, the Board of Directors of ElvalHalcor S.A., Viohalco subsidiary, announced its decision to resume the implementation of the treasury share buyback program, with an estimated start date of July 9, 2025.

The Company's electronic address is www.viohalco.com, where the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been posted.

2. Basis of preparation

Statement of compliance

These Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union. They do not include all information and disclosures required for the annual Consolidated Financial Statements and should be read in conjuction with the annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2024, which can be found on Viohalco's website. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to the understanding of the changes in Viohalco's financial position and performance since the last annual Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2024.

Functional currency and presentation currency

The functional and presentation currency of the parent Company is Euro. All amounts in the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise indicated. As such, due to rounding, figures shown as totals in certain tables may not be arithmetic aggregations of the figures that precede them.

Use of estimates and judgements

Preparing Financial Statements in line with IFRS requires that Management takes decisions, makes assessments and assumptions and determines estimates which affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The actual results may differ from these estimates.

The significant judgements made by Management in applying accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.

3. Significant accounting policies

Except as described below, the accounting policies applied in these interim financial statements are the same as those applied in Viohalco' Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2024.

The changes in accounting policies are also expected to be reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ending 31 December 2025.

A. Standards and interpretations effective for the current financial year

Certain new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been issued that are mandatory for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025 and have been applied in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements. None of these had a significant effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Amendments to IAS 21 'The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability

IAS 21 previously did not cover how to determine exchange rates in case there is long-term lack of exchangeability and the spot rate to be applied by the company is not observable. The narrow scope amendments add specific requirements on:

  • Determining when a currency is exchangeable into another and when it is not;
  • Determining the exchange rate to apply in case a currency is not exchangeable;
  • Additional disclosures to provide when a currency is not exchangeable. Standards and Interpretations effective for subsequent periods

B. Standards and Interpretations effective for subsequent periods

A number of new standards and amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 January 2026 and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements. None of these is expected to have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Group. There are no other IFRSs or IFRIC interpretations that are not yet effective that would be expected to have a material impact on the Group.

The following amendments have been issued, but are not mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 January 2025 and have been endorsed by the European Union:

Amendments to IFRS 9 and to IFRS 7: the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (effective on 1 January 2026)

On 30 May 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 to:

  • Clarify the date of recognition and derecognition of some financial assets and liabilities, with a new exception for some financial liabilities settled through an electronic cash transfer system;
  • Clarify and add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) criterion;
  • Add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows (such as some instruments with features linked to the achievement environment, social and governance (ESG) targets); and
  • Update the disclosures for equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).

The following Standards and amendments have been issued, but are not mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 January 2025 and have not been endorsed by the European Union:

Amendments to IFRS 9 and to IFRS 7: Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 (effective on 1 January 2026)

On 18 December 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7:

  • clarify the application of the 'own-use' requirements;
  • permit hedge accounting if these contracts are used as hedging instruments; and
  • new disclosure requirements to enable investors to understand the effect of these contracts on a company's financial performance and cash flows.

IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (effective on 1 January 2027)

The IASB has issued IFRS 18, the new standard on presentation and disclosure in financial statements, with a focus on updates to the statement of profit or loss. The key new concepts introduced in IFRS 18 relate to:

  • the structure of the statement of profit or loss;
  • required disclosures in the financial statements for certain profit or loss performance measures that are reported outside an entity's financial statements (that is, management-defined performance measures); and

▪ enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and notes in general.

IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1; many of the other existing principles in IAS 1 are retained, with limited changes. IFRS 18 will not impact the recognition or measurement of items in the financial statements, but it might change what an entity reports as its 'operating profit or loss'. IFRS 18 will apply for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 and also applies to comparative information. The changes in presentation and disclosure required by IFRS 18 might require system and process changes.

IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures (effective on 1 January 2027)

The International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) has issued a new IFRS Accounting Standard for subsidiaries. IFRS 19 'Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures' permits eligible subsidiaries to use IFRS Accounting Standards with reduced disclosures. Applying IFRS 19 will reduce the costs of preparing subsidiaries' financial statements while maintaining the usefulness of the information for users of their financial statements.

Annual improvements Volume 11 (effective 1 January 2026)

The amended Standards are:

  • IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards;
  • IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and its accompanying Guidance on implementing IFRS 7;
  • IFRS 9 Financial Instruments;
  • IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements; and
  • IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows.

C. Share based payments

During the first half of 2025, Viohalco subsidiaries Cenergy Holdings and ElvalHalcor adopted a new accounting policy under IFRS 2 – Share-based Payment, following the grant of their equity instruments to their management. This policy applies to equity-settled share-based payment transactions and reflects the recognition, measurement, and disclosure requirements of IFRS 2.

Viohalco subsidiaries account for share-based payment transactions in which employees receive equity instruments as part of their compensation for services rendered. The fair value of equity instruments granted is determined at the grant date and is recognized as an expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase in equity. Revisions to the estimated fair value or vesting assumptions are accounted for prospectively. Any impact from such revisions is recognized in profit or loss in the period of change, ensuring that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate. A corresponding adjustment is made to equity reserves.

Based on the LTIP (Long Term Incentive Plan) of the companies, that constitutes the variable remuneration plan of the companies' senior management, the awards are granted for nil consideration. Upon settlement, Viohalco subsidiaries utilize existing treasury shares to satisfy the awards.

Key Accounting Principles Applied

The total fair value of the granted shares amounts to EUR 447 thousand, which will be recognized as an expense over the three-year vesting period (2025–2027). The expense recognized in profit or loss for H1 2025 was EUR 149 thousand. The corresponding credit is recognized in equity under "Other reserves".

On June 20, 2025, 47,613 shares of Cenergy Holdings were allocated free of charge by the company, through overthe-counter (OTC) transfer, to the CEO of Cenergy Holdings. The aforementioned shares were acquired in the context of the Cenergy Holdings' share buyback program, pursuant to a decision of its Board of directors on July 23, 2024. The shares offered to the beneficiary are subject to a retention obligation for a period of three (3) years from 01.01.2025, i.e. until 31.12.2027 (included).

- ElvalHalcor

On 23.05.2024, the Ordinary General Meeting of ElvalHalcor shareholders, Viohalco's subsidiary, resolved to establish a free share distribution program for executive members of the Board of Directors, General Managers, as well as other senior and upper-level management executives and employees of ElvalHalcor. This decision was updated following the resolution of the Ordinary General Meeting of shareholders dated 22.05.2025.

On 20.06.2025, the Board of Directors determined the terms of the program, following the aforementioned resolutions. The program is rolling and consists of four (4) successive cycles, each of which ("Cycle") includes a oneyear performance period coinciding with the financial year (the "Performance Period") and, subsequently, a three-year vesting period (the "Vesting Period") corresponding to the three immediately following financial years. The program has a total duration of four (4) years, i.e., four (4) Performance Periods corresponding to the financial years 2024, 2025, 2026, and 2027. The exact number of shares to be granted is determined by the Board of Directors after the end of each Performance Period, based on performance criteria and target achievement as set out in the ElvalHalcor's approved remuneration report. The vesting of all shares corresponding to each Performance Period takes place after the end of the respective Vesting Period, during which the shares are subject to a mandatory holding requirement.

In this context, on June 20, 2025, the Board of Directors decided to distribute a total of 266,965 own common registered shares of ElvalHalcor through over-the-counter transfers to members of the company's executive management as a reward for their performance in 2024. The fair value of the shares was determined at EUR 616,689.15, based on the closing price on June 20, 2025, which is the vesting date of the shares, i.e., EUR 2.31 per share.

During the first half of the year, EUR 313 thousand was recognized as an expense for services rendered related to share-based payments that will be settled in equity instruments. This expense was credited to reserves and pertains to the first and second cycles of the program. On June 23, 2025, 266,965 shares with an acquisition cost of €1.82 per share were granted to the beneficiaries and transferred from the "own shares" account to the "retained earnings" account.

7. Other income / expense

Net other income/expenses amounted to a gain of EUR 11 million, compared to a gain of EUR 6 million in the previous period, mainly due to the following reasons:

  • During the first half of 2025, the net impairments of fixed assets recognized amounted to 288 thousand, compared to the fixed assets net reversal of EUR 1.8 million of the comparative period of 2024.
  • Within the first half of 2025, a net gain of EUR 7.4 million was recognized, due to fixed assets disposals mainly related to machinery disposal in the steel segment.
  • Within the first half of 2025, a gain of EUR 1 million was recognized, due to the compensation received by the insurance companies for the damages incurred in the steel plant of Volos in Greece, during the flοοd of 2023.

8. Net finance cost

Net finance costs amounted to EUR 78.2 million in the first half of 2025, compared with EUR 85.1 million during the first half of 2024, due to the reduction in credit spreads and reference interest rates.

9. Income Tax

Income tax expense was calculated based on management's estimate of the average annual tax rate that is expected to apply for the full financial year.

for the six months ended 30 June
Amounts in EUR thousands 2025 2024
Current tax -43,397 -23,466
Deferred tax -8,808 -1,124
Total -52,205 -24,590

The corporate income tax rate in Belgium according to the applicable tax legislation is 25%. The profit is taxed at the applicable rate corresponding to the country in which each company is domiciled. According to the Greek law 4799/2021, enacted in May 2021, the corporate income tax rate for legal entities in Greece, where most of Viohalco subsidiaries are located, for the fiscal year 2021 and onwards is set at 22%.

The consolidated effective tax rate for the six-month period ended 30 June 2025 was 22.8%, compared with 22% at 30 June 2024.

International Tax Reform – Pillar Two

Viohalco is within the scope of the OECD Pillar Two model rules that has been enacted or substantively enacted in certain jurisdictions in which Viohalco companies have presence. Under Pillar Two legislation, a top-up tax may arise for any difference between their Global Anti-Base Erosion ("GloBE") effective tax rate per jurisdiction and the 15% minimum rate. The legislation is effective for the financial year beginning 1 January 2024. Viohalco applies the exception to recognising and disclosing informationabout deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes, as provided in the amendments to IAS 12 issued in May 2023.

For the six-month period ended 30 June 2025, Viohalco has performed an assessment for all countries in which it has presence of the potential tax expense arising from Pillar Two rules. This assessment has been based on the Constituent Entities' IFRS financial statements as at 30 June 2025 in order to validate conclusions on eligibility of Constituents Entities for the CBCR Safe Harbour transitional rules.

Based on this assessment, only profits reported in Bulgaria and Albania were not eligible for the CBCR Safe Harbour transitional rules, and for such profits the respective Pillar II top up tax liability recognised in H1 2025, amounts to EUR 120 thousands for the jurisdiction of Bulgaria.

On June 25, 2025, the joint venture under the name HALCORNTT S.A. was established, with the purpose of producing tubes with enhanced features (internal and external surfaces) that improve thermal efficiency and the overall performance of heating and cooling systems. Viohalco subsidiary, ElvalHalcor, holds a 50% stake in HALCORNTT S.A.

11. Contract Assets

The contract assets primarily relate to the rights to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date on customized products or energy projects. The contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional. This occurs when the Viohalco companies issue an invoice to the customer.

Contract assets increased by EUR 150 million compared to 31 December 2024 due to higher amounts of unbilled receivables, as for turnkey cables projects, customized steel pipes and cables, amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either upon achievement of contractual milestones, or at the final delivery and acceptance of the products.

12. Property, plant and equipment & intangible assets

Property, Plant and Equipment

During the first half of 2025, Viohalco investments in property, plant and equipment amounted to EUR 180 million (H1 2024: EUR 197 million).

Aluminium segment investments amounted to EUR 23 million, are mainly related to the:

Short term facilities are predominately revolving credit facilities, which finance working capital needs and specific ongoing projects. Viohalco subsidiaries have never in the past experienced any issues in financing their activities, renewing their working capital lines or refinancing long-term loans and borrowings. Management expects that any mandatory repayment of banking facilities will be met with operating cash flows or from currently unutilized and committed credit lines.

Under the terms of the loan agreements, certain Viohalco subsidiaries must comply with conditions (including financial covenants) and such compliance is tested on semi-annual basis for the majority of the loans. Management has considered the measures that need to be taken to mitigate the risk relating to potential breaches and expects that in the event that these covenants are breached, waivers will be granted, which have been provided in the past when requested.

The average interest rate of the outstanding bank loans as 30 June 2025 was 3.9% (4.4% as at 31 December 2024). Property, plant and equipment and inventories of some subsidiaries carry mortgages and liens for a total amount of EUR 1,619 million, as collaterals for long term loans and syndicated loans. In addition, for certain Viohalco companies' loans, there are change of control clauses that provide lenders early redemption rights. The majority of Viohalco companies' loans are Euro denominated.

The various levels are as follows:

  • Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in an active market for identical assets and liabilities.
  • Level 2: Inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly.
  • Level 3: Unobservable inputs for assets and liabilities.

The fair value of the following financial assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost approximates their carrying amount:

  • Trade and other receivables;
  • Cash and cash equivalents;
  • Trade and other payables;
  • Loans and borrowings;
  • Lease liabilities.

Specifically, the carrying amount of loans and borrowings is considered as a good approximation of their fair value, as the majority of consolidated Loans and borrowings concern floating-rate debt, which is a very good approximation of current market rates.

The following table shows reconciliation between opening and closing balances for Level 3 financial assets:

Hedge accounting

Viohalco's companies hold derivative financial instruments for cash flow and fair value hedges.

The abovementioned derivative financial instruments cover risks from:

  • Changes in the prices of metals
  • Fluctuations of foreign exchange rates
  • Changes in loan interest rates
  • Fluctuations of energy prices (natural gas)

The maturity and the nominal value of derivatives held by Viohalco's companies match the maturity and nominal value of the underlying assets / liabilities (hedged items).

Derivatives held by Viohalco companies concerns mainly:

  • Future contracts to hedge the risk from the change of the price of metals listed in LME (London Metal Exchange) and used in production of Viohalco companies (i.e. mainly copper, aluminum and zinc), Such hedges are designated as cash flow hedges.
  • F-X Forward and F-X swaps to hedge the risk from the change in exchange rate of US Dollar and British Pound (i.e. currencies to which Viohalco companies are mainly exposed). Such hedges are either designated as fair value or cash flow hedges depending on the item hedged. F-X Forwards and F-X swaps when used for hedging F-X risk on outstanding receivables and suppliers denominated in foreign currency these instruments are designated under fair value hedging. F-X forwards when used for hedging F-X risk on the forecasted sales of goods or purchase of materials executed in foreign currency F-X forward is hedging instruments designated under the cash flow method.
  • Commodity Swaps referenced on the Title Transfer Facility (TTF) prices to hedge the risk of fluctuations in natural gas prices from market conditions.
  • Interest rate swaps in order to hedge the volatility risk from interest rates of variable rate loans and borrowings. In order to hedge it, companies use interest rate swaps that transform the variable interest rate into a fixed one, thus reducing interest rate volatility risk.

Derivatives are recognized when Viohalco companies enter into the transaction in order either to hedge the fair value of receivables, liabilities or commitments (fair value hedges) or highly probable transactions (cash flow hedges).

The change in fair value recognized in equity under cash flow hedging as of 30 June 2025 will be recycled to the consolidated statement of profit or loss during the next years, as some of the hedged events are expected to occur (the forecasted transactions will take place or the hedged items will affect Profit or Loss statement) within 2025 and some others at a later stage.

B. Measurement of fair values

(a) Valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs

During the period there were no changes in valuation processes compared to those described in the last annual Consolidated Financial Statements.

Fair value for interest rate swaps is calculated on the basis of the present value of forecasted future cash flows. Interest rate swaps are categorized as Level 2, based on the inputs used in the valuation technique to determine their fair value.

(b) Transfers between Levels 1 and 2

There were no transfers from Level 2 to Level 1 or from Level 1 to Level 2 in first half of 2025 or in 2024.

17. Guarantees

Viohalco companies have provided guarantees in favor of customers and suppliers, mainly in order to secure that certain conditions of contracts will be fulfilled according to agreed terms, relating to products or services.

19. Subsequent events

On July 7, 2025, the Board of Directors of ElvalHalcor S.A., Viohalco's subsidiary, announced its decision to resume the implementation of the treasury share buyback program, with an estimated start date of July 9, 2025. The program's current upper limit is set at 500,000 shares, representing approximately 0.13% of ElvalHalcor's paid-up share capital, and a maximum total amount of €2,000,000. This limit was determined based on the anticipated needs of the free share offer plan for the financial year 2026. Purchases will be executed on the Athens Stock Exchange through Piraeus Securities S.A., acting as the main underwriter of the Program. Piraeus Securities will operate independently, making trading decisions without influence from ElvalHalcor, and in full compliance with Regulation (EU) 596/2014 and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052.

There are no other subsequent events affecting the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.

Statutory Auditor's Report

STATUTORY AUDITOR'S REPORT ON REVIEW OF CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

______________________________________________________________

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position of Viohalco S.A. and its subsidiaries (the "Group") as of 30 June 2025 and the related Condensed Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss, the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the sixmonth period then ended, as well as the explanatory notes (the "Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements"). Those Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are characterised by Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position total assets of EUR 6.939.611 thousand and the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss shows a profit for the six-month period, attributable to owners of the company, of EUR 131.058 thousand.

The board of directors is responsible for the preparation and presentation of those Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements in accordance with IAS 34, as adopted by the European Union.

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity." A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, as adopted by the European Union.

Appendix – Alternative Performance Measures (APMs)

Introduction

Viohalco management has adopted, monitors and reports internally and externally P&L alternative performance measures ('APMs'), namely EBITDA, EBIT, adjusted EBITDA (a-EBITDA) and adjusted EBIT (a-EBIT) on the basis that they are appropriate measures reflecting the underlying performance of the business. These APMs are also key performance metrics on which Viohalco prepares, monitors and assesses its annual budgets and long-term (5 year) plans. However, it must be noted that adjusted items should not be considered as non-operating or non-recurring items.

Relating to balance sheet items, Viohalco management monitors and reports the net debt measure.

General Definitions

EBIT is defined as profit for the period before:

  • income taxes;
  • Share of profit/loss of equity-accounted investees, net of tax;
  • net finance cost.

a-EBIT is defined as EBIT, excluding:

  • metal price lag;
  • impairment / reversal of impairment of fixed and intangible assets;
  • impairment / reversal of impairment of investments;
  • gains/losses from sales of fixed assets, intangible assets and investments;
  • exceptional litigation fees and fines;
  • other exceptional or unusual items.

EBITDA is defined as profit for the period before:

  • income taxes;
  • Share of profit/loss of equity-accounted investees, net of tax;
  • net finance cost;
  • depreciation and amortization.

a-EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding the same line items as a-EBIT.

Net Debt is defined as the total of:

  • Long term borrowings;
  • Short term borrowings;

Less:

• Cash and cash equivalents.

Metal price lag is the P&L effect resulting from fluctuations in the market prices of the underlying commodity metals (ferrous and non-ferrous) which Viohalco subsidiaries use as raw materials in their end-product production processes.

Metal price lag exists due to:

  • 1. the period of time between the pricing of purchases of metal, holding and processing the metal, and the pricing of the sale of finished inventory to customers,
  • 2. the effect of the inventory opening balance (which in turn is affected by metal prices of previous periods) on the amount reported as cost of sales, due to the costing method used (e.g. weighted average), and
  • 3. certain customer contracts containing fixed forward price commitments which result in exposure to changes in metal prices for the period of time between when our sales price fixes and the sale actually occurs.

Most of Viohalco subsidiaries use back-to-back matching of purchases and sales, or derivative instruments in order to minimize the effect of the Metal Price Lag on their results. However, there will be always some impact (positive or negative) in the P&L, since inventory in the non-ferrous segments (i.e. aluminium, copper and cables) is treated as being held on a permanent basis (minimum operating stock), and not hedged, in the ferrous segments (i.e. steel and steel pipes), no commodities hedging occurs.
