Laurent Mignon, Wendel Group CEO, commented:

"With the contemplated acquisition of Committed Advisors and the evolution of our Principal Investments platform, Wendel is continuing the transformation of its business model that began in 2023.

Committed Advisors, a highly regarded company operating in the secondary market with an excellent track record, will be a perfect match with our third-party private asset management platform by adding a new vertical, alongside highly talented teams in private equity (IK Partners) and private debt (Monroe Capital). With €46 billion in assets under management, Wendel is gradually establishing itself as a leading player in the mid-market.

At the same time, the evolution of our historic Principal Investments activity, now operated with the support of an advisory mandate entrusted to IK Partners – while retaining control of our assets – will enable us to increase our capacities and our efficiency.

These new milestones are in line with our strategy: to build a balanced group whose value creation is based on two complementary drivers – asset management, which generates recurring and predictable income, and Principal Investments, which is geared towards longterm value creation on majority-owned investments."

Wendel Investment Managers (WIM) Evolution

Wendel Investment Managers, Wendel's third-party asset management platform would stand at €46 billion in assets under management and would reach €200¹ million in 2026 FRE in lower-mid market private equity, private debt, and private market solutions following the contemplated acquisition of Committed Advisors

Wendel announces today exclusive negotiations with a view to acquire a controlling stake in Committed Advisors ("Committed Advisors" or "CA") from its founding partners who would also reinvest all of their net proceeds in Committed Advisors funds as part of the envisaged transaction. For Wendel, this transaction would constitute a new milestone in its third-party asset management business, Wendel Investment Managers, which is aimed at generating additional sources of recurring income and intrinsic value creation.

A European secondary market specialist

Founded in 2010, Committed Advisors is a global private investment firm focusing on the midmarket, providing a broad range of solutions to investors and general partners seeking liquidity solutions for their private equity assets. Committed Advisors manages €6.0bn of private assets on behalf of third-party investors and, since inception, has completed over 220 transactions. In 2026, Committed Advisors' activities are expected to generate around 70 million euros in management fees and around 45 million euros in pre-tax Fee Related Earnings (FRE). CA's team of 50 professionals, including the 4 founding Managing Partners, focuses on mid-market secondary transactions ranging from €20m to €200m. Committed Advisors' Secondary Funds ("CASF") represent CA's core long-standing strategy, accounting for more than 90% of total AuM. This secondary strategy is designed to build highly diversified portfolios across industry sectors and across geographies (North America: 51%, Europe: 36%, Asia & Rest of the World: 13%). Since inception, CA funds have delivered consistent performance, generating a gross IRR of 19%.

With this partnership, Committed Advisors would become the secondary market specialist within Wendel Investment Managers (Wendel's asset management platform), which already covers buyout through IK Partners and private credit through Monroe Capital. Committed Advisors will benefit from the platform's resources and support to consolidate its development and keep generating growth in a secondary market that has more than doubled in size since 2021. Following this transaction, Wendel Investment Managers would reach over €46bn in Assets Under Management and €200million in Fee Related Earnings on a pro forma basis in 2026.

With this new partnership, Wendel has line of sight to a sizeable platform managing multiple private asset classes: private equity, private credit and secondary, focused on the midmarket. Wendel Investment Managers platform is to become one of the main European players in terms of Assets Under Management & Fee Related Earnings, and will pursue its growth organically, with enhanced potential to generate operational synergies, and externally in the coming years.

A payment of €258 million would be made at closing, with an additional earnout of up to €128 million payable in 2028, 2029 and 2030, subject to FRE and fund raising targets.

(ii) Subsequent transactions

The remaining 44% of CA's share capital would be acquired by Wendel through subsequent transactions scheduled between 2029, 2032 and 2035. The valuation of these transactions would be linked to the growth in FRE over the period. Further, the broader CA Team will also benefit from a share of such value creation.

Subject to the finalization of negotiations and satisfaction of customary completion conditions (including regulatory approvals), the acquisition of the majority stake is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026.

Principal Investments Framework Evolution

Principal investments operations to leverage IK Partners' expertise and move to a more efficient model

Wendel to be advised by IK Partners for all existing1 and future private investments

To strengthen the monitoring and performance of its unlisted controlled assets, Wendel has decided to appoint IK Partners ("IK") as a paid advisor covering its unlisted portfolio, including Stahl, Scalian, Globeducate, CPI, and ACAMS. This advisory mandate aims both to strengthen the operational monitoring of these assets and to support Wendel in deploying capital in new opportunities that meet its investment criteria. The assets will remain owned and controlled by Wendel (no asset transfer).

Wendel will retain its decision-making power at the investment committee and on the boards of directors of current and future portfolio companies.

Wendel will continue to manage and lead this activity, while benefiting from broader and more in-depth expertise and access to a diversified and densified pipeline of opportunities. Teams at IK will also contribute sector expertise and analytical capabilities to accelerate decision-making.

IK will set up a dedicated team for this new activity, including several professionals from Wendel's investment team who would have chosen to join IK Partners

This approach illustrates the gradual integration of the Wendel platform, promoting the pooling of expertise between teams.

This new arrangement will take effect on January 1, 2026.

Wendel Growth: model simplification and upcoming launch of Iron Wave (regulatory approval pending) for direct investments

As part of its refocusing on its two core businesses, which began three years ago, Wendel announces that it has received or secured around €75 million in liquidity through secondary transactions on existing investments in funds and funds of funds, and is assessing liquidity opportunities on the remaining exposure in order to finance the Iron Wave project (subject to pending regulatory approval) and to generate additional resources for the Group.

Wendel is evolving its venture capital investment structure, which until now has been operated under the Wendel Growth brand. This business will become Iron Wave, a new GP controlled and managed by Antoine Izsak and Victoire Laurenty who will hold 70% of the share capital and will leverage its three-year track record. Having played an incubator role in the development of this business, Wendel will retain a minority stake in Iron Wave of 30%. Furthermore, major French institutional investors have expressed their intention to support the project alongside Wendel. Iron Wave will advise Wendel on existing direct growth investments made by Wendel Growth.

Stahl – Total sales¹ slightly down -0.5 % for the first 9 months of 2025 in challenging market conditions

(full consolidation)

Stahl, the world leader in specialty coatings for flexible substrates, posted total sales of €684.3 million in the first 9 months of 2025, representing a total decrease of -0.5 % versus last year.

Q3 2025 was characterized by the persistence of challenging market conditions experienced since the second half of 2024, intensified by the unstable tariff landscape which notably impacted performance and volumes in Leather, and particularly also the Wet-End activities, generating uncertainty among customers.

Organic growth was -5.2%, scope contributed positively by +7.3% thanks to the Weilburger acquisition completed in September 2024, while FX was negative (-2.6%), mostly through USD and CNY weakening against the EUR.

Crisis Prevention Institute – Revenue growth of + 3.5% as compared with 9M 2024 (full consolidation)

CPI experienced slower growth in North America (+1.3% vs. 9M 2024) amid ongoing federal oversight and funding uncertainty within CPI's end markets. This was partially offset by volume growth in customer renewals and encouraging acceleration in activity across international markets up by +22% YTD (+14% organic YTD excluding Verge).

Results for the first nine months were driven by double-digit growth in the Americas segment, mainly from the sales of new certifications and 43% growth in conference sponsorship & exhibition. APAC reversed the negative trend from 2024 and was up 7% vs. prior year, offset by weaker performance in Europe which continues to be affected by softness in the European banking market.

Strategic investments made by ACAMS in the past few years are positively impacting performance, including the appointment of several new Executive Leadership Team members, including the Chief Commercial Officer as well as enhancements to the company's technology platform and market expansion with the introduction of the Certified Anti-Fraud Specialist certification (CAFS).
