Obligation regarding periodical information as a consequence of the European transparency regulations. Statement regarding the information given in this interim financial report over 6 months 06/30/25
Campine, Belgian specialty chemicals and metal recycling company, has reported exceptionally strong growth in the first half of 2025. Revenue more than doubled to €384 million, compared with €169 million in the same period last year. EBITDA nearly tripled to €53.4 million, setting a new record for the first six months. This profit increase is largely driven by strong demand for antimony trioxide (ATO) and significant rises in antimony prices.
Revenue for the Specialty Chemicals division rose to €293 million, four times higher than in 2024 (€74 million). Growth was primarily driven by antimony trioxide sales, with Campine becoming the global market leader following Chinese export restrictions at the end of 2024. The FRMB unit (flame-retardant masterbatches) more than doubled its revenue thanks to the use of ATO, while CrP (PP recycling) achieved a 30% revenue increase, partly due to competitor bankruptcies.
EBITDA in Specialty Chemicals rose from €6.0 million to €36.6 million.
Revenue in the Circular Metals division grew slightly to €114.4 million (+2%). Revenues of the Business Units Lead and Battery Fractions was just below last year's due to lower prices for lead on the LME. The Metals Recovery unit saw revenue increase by more than 50%, driven by higher prices for gold, silver, and antimony.
EBITDA in this division rose from €13.7 million to €16.8 million, supported by lower purchase prices for battery scrap.
Campine expects a record year, with EBITDA likely exceeding €80 million. CEO De Vos commented: "Forecasting remains challenging in such a volatile market. Changes in Chinese export restrictions or U.S. import regulations could quickly impact results. Nevertheless, 2025 is already shaping up to be an exceptional year."
In Specialty Chemicals, high profitability is expected to continue in the second half, despite a slight global decline in ATO demand due to substitution of ATO as flame retardant. The Circular Metals division continues to benefit from lower battery scrap costs, offsetting lower LME sales prices.
Campine is also awaiting regulatory approval for the acquisition of three French Ecobat factories, with the deal potentially closing in September. This acquisition could further impact the 2025 results.

Adding the EBITDA allows to focus more on the importance of cash and should not influence negatively a decision on investments for future growth.

84% of the turnover of Circular Metals Segment was realised in Europe whereas 48% of the turnover of Specialty Chemicals was achieved in Europe.
Similar to previous years, turnover is recognized on the basis of the INCO terms stated on the invoice. The turnover is not subject to seasonal effects.
The Group structures its business into business units (BU's , which are part of two larger divisions. The turnover is provided to the CODM on a business unit level. However, the performance and allocation of resources is reviewed and decided on the division level. Next to that, the managers reporting to the CODM are also on the level of the division. As a result, two operating segments, called divisions, were identified "Specialty Chemicals" and "Circular Metals". These operating segments are also considered to be the reportable segments.
The divisions are considered to be the IFRS 8 operating segments as the BU's are very intertwined so that all important decisions related to capital and resources are made at the level of the divisions. The main activities of the two segments are respectively:
• Specialty Chemicals hosts all businesses which serve end-markets with chemical products and derivates. The manufacturing of antimony trioxide used as flame-retardant, polymerization catalyst and pigment reagent and the production of different types of polymer and plastic masterbatches. The Specialty Chemicals division comprises the business units (BU's) BU Antimony trioxide, BU FR Masterbatches and BU recycled Polymers.

| ∆ | 369,0% | 143,5% | 29,5% | 294,3% |
See page 1/2 Market and operations.
The total (external and cross-business unit) turnover of the Specialty Chemicals Division represents a volume of 13 995 ton (06/30/24: 11 329 ton)(+24%). The split between external sales and cross-business unit sales can be found in the table further down in this section.
There are two customers in the Specialty Chemicals division who represent more than 10% of the Group's turnover (17% and 11%).
• Circular Metals hosts the businesses in which metals are being recovered from industrial and postconsumer waste streams. The main activity is the manufacturing of lead alloys. To this business is added the growing activity of the recycling of other metals such as antimony and tin. This division comprises the business units (BU's) BU Lead, BU Metals Recovery and BU recycled Batteries.

The total (external and cross-business unit) of the Circular Metals division represents a volume of 62 675 ton (06/30/24: 59 916 ton)(+5%). The split between external sales and cross-business unit sales can be found in the table further in this section.
There are no customers in Circular Metals division who represent more than 10% of the Group's turnover.
The column "unallocated" in the tables below mainly concerns matters related to our corporate activities which cannot be easily allocated to one of the two segments. This mainly concerns the building where our offices are located, the cash and V.A.T. receivables. We also use it to show the elimination of our sales within the segment Circular Metals.

Domestic income tax is calculated at 25% (06/30/4 25%) of the estimated assessable result for the financial year. On the balance sheet, this translates to a current tax debt of € 7 780K.
In 2025 a total dividend of € 6 750K (which is € 4.5 gross per share) - as well as a tantième of € 105K - were distributed related to the financial year 2024. In 2024 a total dividend of € 4 500K (which is € 3.0 € gross per share) and a tantième of € 90K were distributed based on the 2023 result.

In view of the scarcity of antimony metal on the raw material market, it was decided to create a permanent stock. This inventory is the equivalent of one production month. By doing so, Campine ensures continuous availability of raw materials so that the production process cannot be hindered by a late incoming material flow.
The total gross book value of Campine's permanent metal inventories on June 30, 2025 amounts to € 13 250K when applying historic cost prices on June 30, 2025 (€ 13 250K at the end of December 2024). Given the price evolution, there is no risk of overvaluation of this permanent metal stock on June 30, 2025.
Given the permanent nature of these inventories, Campine has chosen to apply the rules for valuation and recognition of Tangible fixed assets (IAS 16) and Impairment of assets (IAS 36). The valuation is based on the principle of 'historical cost less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses'. Since inventories are assumed to have an indefinite useful life, no depreciation is applied. Instead, they are subject to annual impairment testing for the cashgenerating units that hold these inventories. Any impairment losses recorded are included under 'depreciation and impairment losses'.

There are currently no claims for which the probability of a cash outflow is considered possible or probable.

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial position of Campine NV as at 30 June 2025, the condensed consolidated statements of profit or loss, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and notes ("the condensed consolidated interim financial information"). The board of directors is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this condensed consolidated interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this condensed consolidated interim financial information based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with the 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.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial information as at 30 June 2025 and for the six-month period then ended is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the European Union.
