INTERIM GROUP MANAGEMENT REPORT

1 Basic Information on the Group

1.1 Business Model

Three Segments

With the parent company, EDAG Engineering Group AG, Arbon (Switzerland), the EDAG Group is one of the largest independent engineering service providers. The entire group of companies will hereinafter be referred to as EDAG Group or EDAG.

Within the framework of its continuous development program, EDAG is accelerating the diversification of its portfolio. By taking this step, the company aims to consolidate its market position and meet both the changing needs of customers and the dynamic requirements of a range of different industries. EDAG is focusing its global attention on numerous other sectors in addition to the international mobility industry. The newly identified target industries include medical devices, renewable energies, rail transport, the semiconductor industry, consumer goods and household appliances. As before, EDAG's business is organized into the following segments: Vehicle Engineering, Electrics/Electronics and Production Solutions. We work on the principle of production-optimized solutions for any and all industries. This means that we always ensure that development results are in line with current production requirements.

Presentation of the Vehicle Engineering Segment

The Vehicle Engineering segment (VE) consists of services along the vehicle development process as well as responsibility for modules, derivatives and complete vehicles, from the initial idea through to the finished prototype. The segment is divided into the following divisions:

The Body Engineering division offers a wide range of vehicle development services. These include package & ergonomics, body assembly, surface design and interior and exterior development. A further focus is on the development of door, cover and gate systems. In addition, the range of services includes the design and

development of glazing and the optical design of vehicle lighting systems including headlamps, rear lamps and small lamps. Innovative technologies and the integration and implementation of lightweight construction concepts play a crucial role in the department.

Dimensional management which, by calculating tolerances and using simulation, helps to ensure the reproducibility and geometrical quality of the products, is increasingly gaining importance. Interface management in the handling of complex module developments is also taking on an increasingly significant role. Systematic process management and close coordination between departments help to optimize development times and improve product quality.

Sustainability and CO2 reduction are seen as guiding principles.

As an engineering service provider, we already have a major impact on the future carbon footprint of products in the early phases of their design and development. Our team of specialists develops sustainable solutions which take the entire product life cycle into account.

These include:

  • Lifecycle assessments (LCA) to assess environmental impact
  • Advice on what materials to select, in particular with regard to sustainable and recyclable materials
  • Development of alternative drivetrain technologies and lightweight design solutions
  • Strategies for decarbonization in production and supply chains
  • Developing and marketing our own software to enable us to provide reliable information on the future CO2 footprint in the early stages of a project

The services offered by the Vehicle Integration division range from engineering and simulation to component, system and complete vehicle validation for automobiles, commercial vehicles and motorcycles. We cover the entire spectrum of energy system and powertrain development through to integration with the corresponding energy storage systems (e.g. battery and hydrogen), and also develop intelligent, CO2 -saving chassis solutions. Computer-aided engineering (CAE) is used in the functional design of components and systems through to the complete vehicle. To ensure readiness for series production, functionality and durability are validated in our test laboratories. In the new vehicle dynamics simulation center, it is now possible to test prototypes

on an entirely virtual basis, so saving resources. In addition, the new EMC center has further expanded our already extensive testing capacities. The electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of components, complete vehicles and products is tested and adapted in this center.

Our Models & Vehicle Solutions division offers an extensive range of services, from styling to the physical validation of vehicles. We manufacture test vehicles, sub-assemblies, vehicle bodies and special, individual vehicle conversions. We are also one of the leading developers in the series production of high-quality hydrogen storage systems. Progress and the planning of large-scale MEGC (multiple element gas container) storage systems go hand in hand with the increasing demands for safe hydrogen storage solutions. We are continuing the development of our patented filling method to guarantee increased efficiency and safety.

Complete vehicle development and interdisciplinary module packages, also with the involvement of our international subsidiaries, are managed by the Project Management division, where we provide support in areas ranging from the definition of the product strategy through concept development to series development and production. Project Management networks and directs all the development departments - internal and external - involved, in this way ensuring continuous design status progress throughout the development.

Just as the conclusion of a business transaction does not mean the end of the customer relationship, start of production (SOP) does not mark the end of the product development process. The After Sales division is vital during both the market launch of a product and its life cycle on the market. If after sales requirements are integrated into the product development process at an early stage, overall costs can be reduced and customer satisfaction increased. Our After Sales Quality Management team optimizes development and production processes, ensures that suppliers are qualified, and guarantees the quality of our products. The Technical Editing team draws up legally required documents and literature for all target groups, while our After Sales Digilab maximizes the efficiency of our systems and provides customer-specific solutions.

Presentation of the Electrics/Electronics Segment

The service portfolio in the Electrics/Electronics segment (E/E) is divided into four areas, for which comprehensive solutions for all relevant development tasks and the current challenges in electronics development are provided. Systematic innovation management, the use of new agile development processes and rapid customeroriented development are the basis for a sustainable, high quality cooperation in projects with customers.

Technical Sales in the E/E segment is responsible for the further development of this portfolio. To this end, market trends are identified at an early stage and incorporated into the service portfolio in accordance with customer requirements.

With a constantly evolving organization of excellence in four areas of competence, the structure of the delivery organization of the E/E segment covers all engineering services necessary for a complete system solution. Projects are handled in cooperations across various segments and sites, in global delivery models.

The Systems Engineering division develops electrical and electronic systems and functions, through to entire E/E architectures. In this context, the division develops innovative domain or service-oriented E/E architectures on the basis of a fully integrated tool-based E/E architecture development process. Starting with the initial feature list, through topology and the vehicle electrical system, to integration in the corresponding vehicle, EDAG provides support and development services for all development phases through to series production. Both the overall systems and their components, sensors, actuators and controls, are taken into account during the development of electronic systems in all relevant functional groups of the E/E architecture. The core competency centers on the management of the development process throughout the entire development, following either an OEM or EDAG process model. Whereas there is a tendency to perform specifying activities at the beginning, the focus of tasks shifts towards controlling system integration and system validation as the project progresses, concluding with support during the approval phase of the market-ready systems.

The Integration & Validation division combines functional E/E validation skills. The key aspects here are the creation of test strategies and test specifications for testing electronic vehicle functions, and carrying out the corresponding tests. These are carried out in virtual test environments, in the laboratory, at a test site, or on the road, in a variety of ways ranging from manual to highly automated. This division also handles the conception and provision of the required testing technology and test infrastructure, which involves developing and setting up test facilities optimized for

the test requirements concerned. All E/E aspects relating to prototype and test vehicle construction are also covered by this division.

E/E Software & Digitalization develops hardware and software components. EDAG provides support throughout the entire development cycle from the concept phase to series production, and assumes responsibility for all development activities. Development in line with the ASPICE standard in highly automated tool chains and agile development teams is one of the daily challenges faced in the endeavor to ensure efficient processing with high-quality engineering in the projects. Information technology is another focus of Software & Digitalization. Innovative services are developed here, on behalf of customers. Key aspects involved are the connection of vehicles to the mobility backend, user interfaces and the development of specialized tools for mobility development. The E/E service portfolio also includes agile development processes and distinctive technological expertise in classic software development in the frontend and backend and in special applications in the field of AI and data science.

In its cross-company interdisciplinary function, competence in the field of Safety & Security is taking on an increasingly significant role. One of the division's key points of focus is functional safety in line with the ISO 26262 standard. In society's endeavors to minimize risks (Vision Zero), comprehensive security concepts that also cover the infrastructure and monitoring elements, vehicle guidance systems for instance, are being developed. Through legal requirements for the type approval of vehicles (UNECE R 155) and standards such as ISO/SAE 21434, cybersecurity continues to become increasingly important. Here, too, EDAG offers a wide, constantly expanding service portfolio.

Process & Product Data Management (PPDM) provides a key addition to the EDAG service portfolio. Applying its in-depth customer-specific process and systems knowledge, PPDM deals with the project-spanning, cross-divisional management of all process operations, in this way delivering systematic and transparent results which enable the individual milestones in the product development process to be achieved. The PPDM services range from classic OEM tasks such as bills of materials & release management, project back office management, version and configuration management, through test vehicles and vehicle management, to homologation, localization and certification management. The fields of consulting & strategy, environmental management and life cycle management round off this wide-ranging field of activity and provide our clients with ideas for a consistent and more efficient design of their operational methods and processes.

Presentation of the Production Solutions Segment

The Production Solutions (PS) segment is an all-round engineering partner which accepts responsibility for the development and implementation of Smart Factories at nine sites in Germany and at international sites particularly in the USA, India, Hungary and Austria. In addition to handling the individual stages in the product creation process and all factory and production systems-related services, PS is also able to optimally plan and realize complete factories from consulting to general contractor across all sectors, including cross processes. The Industry 4.0 methods and tools serve as the basis for the networked engineering between the product development and plant construction processes.

PS is organized into the following business segments: Automotive Solutions, Industrial Solutions and Smart City Solutions.

The Automotive Solutions division offers customers in the automotive industry an extensive portfolio which ranges from planning to virtual commissioning.

In the batteries sector, we plan everything from battery cells to recycling, engineering and implementing the production of electric vehicles and their components in a way that is both sustainable and digitally validated. Another area on which the division focuses is mechatronic engineering in body manufacturing, final assembly and the component. The aim is to reduce the number of hours in the engineering process for each factory, production line and production cell by means of standardization and automation. Digital factory methods are used in all production lines (digital, virtual and real-life) to guarantee that functional requirements are met and implemented. To meet customers' requirements, the engineering teams develop realistic 3D simulation cells in which the planning, design and technological concepts are implemented and validated, both mechanically and electrically, in line with process requirements. Early involvement during the engineering process makes

it possible to systematically improve production processes and ensure an optimized start of production (ramp-up).

In the Industrial Solutions division, holistic and independent production solutions are developed, digitally validated and implemented. Starting with analysis and consulting, then the planning and development of production plants through to their realization, support along the entire product and production development process is provided for customers in the automotive sector, and particularly in industry in general. The key services in this division are the various elements of the smart factory: product design for manufacturability, coordinated technical building equipment and plant layout, individual production solutions, networking through smart logistics, digitalization and networking in production, digital solutions for collaboration, training and innovation and the digital twin in the smart factory. In this way, PS aims to achieve optimum process reliability for its customers, along with a sustainable factory infrastructure, increased productivity, supply chain excellence, complexity control and the effectiveness of networked people, while also improving decisionmaking reliability and reducing project duration. The portfolio is complemented by Feynsinn, a process consulting and CAx development department. IT-assisted sequences and methods are developed here, as is software for product design, development, production and marketing. Feynsinn also offers consulting, conceptual and realization services in the field of visualization technologies. A range of training opportunities completes the PS industrial solutions portfolio.

Alongside the core business fields of Automotive Solutions and Industrial Solutions, the Smart City Solutions division is also being developed to advance digitalization and networking in the public arena. The focus of this division is on intelligent solutions in the fields of smart mobility, smart infrastructure, smart government, smart people and smart health. PS helps cities and municipalities to implement new mobility solutions and to collect, visualize and intelligently process local information. In addition, PS assists with the digitalization and automation of administrative processes.

In the quarter just ended, the company's workforce, including apprentices, numbered 8,993 employees on average, and so remained at the same level as the previous (Q1 2024: 9,006 employees). Compared to the same period in the previous year, the EDAG Group's personnel expenses decreased by 7.0 percent to €141.5 million in the reporting period (Q1 2024: €152.1 million).

Depreciation, amortization and impairments amounted to €10.2 million (Q1 2024: €10.3 million), and other expenses decreased by €0.9 million to €24.9 million.

At €1.6 million, the EBIT in the reporting period was well below the previous year's level (Q1 2024: €13.3 million). An EBIT margin of 0.9 percent was achieved as a result (Q1 2024: 6.1 percent).

Taking into account minor adjustments, the adjusted EBIT in the reporting quarter just ended was €1.6 million (Q1 2024: €13.4 million), which is equivalent to an adjusted EBIT margin of 0.8 percent (Q1 2024: 6.1 percent).

The financial result for the first quarter of 2025 was €-3.1 million, (Q1 2024: €-2.8 million).

To sum up, with a loss of €0.9 million (Q1 2024: profit of €7.0 million), business development of the EDAG Group was all in all unsatisfactory in the reporting period.

Development of the Vehicle Engineering Segment

Incoming orders in the first quarter of 2025 amounted to €132.0 million, which was below the level of the same period in the previous year (Q1 2024: €148.2 million). At €108.6 million, revenues were also below the previous year's level (Q1 2024: €123.2 million). All in all, an EBIT of €0.7 million was recorded for the Vehicle Engineering segment in the first quarter just ended (Q1 2024: €8.9 million). Both the EBIT margin and the adjusted EBIT margin amounted to 0.7 percent, which was well below the level of the same period in the previous year (Q1 2024: 7.2 percent).

Development of the Electrics/Electronics Segment

Incoming orders in the first quarter decreased by €6.2 million to €69.3 million compared to the same period in the previous year (Q1 2024: €75.5 million). Revenue totaled €58.0 million, which was below the previous year's level of €66.4 million. The EBIT stood at €0.7 million (Q1 2024: €3.1 million). This meant that the EBIT margin amounted to 1.1 percent (Q1 2024: 4.6 percent).

Development of the Production Solutions Segment

In the Production Solutions segment, incoming orders in the quarter just ended amounted to €37.2 million, which was well below the level of the previous year (Q1 2024: €57.5 million). At €30.3 million, revenue in the quarter just ended was below the previous year's level (Q1 2024: €33.6 million), as was the adjusted EBIT margin, which stood at 0.8 percent (Q1 2024: 4.1 percent). Overall, the EBIT for the Production Solutions segment stood at €0.3 million in the quarter just ended (Q1 2024: €1.4 million). This meant that the EBIT margin also amounted to 0.8 percent (Q1 2024: 4.1 percent).

Cash Flows and Financial Position

The EDAG Group's statement of financial position total decreased by €14.2 million to €720.0 million, and was therefore below the level of December 31, 2024 (€734.2 million). At €378.7 million, non-current assets were below the previous year's level (12/31/2024: €382.7 million). In the current assets, there was a significant increase of €31.1 million in the contract assets. By way of contrast, the accounts receivable decreased by €46.5 million. These changes reflect the typical development for EDAG in the first three months of a financial year, in line with the company's business activities. Cash and cash-equivalents increased by €125.5 million to €132.8 million.

On the equity, liabilities and provisions side, there was a slight decrease in equity from €133.1 million to €132.8 million. The equity ratio on the reporting date was 18.5 percent, which was slightly above the level at the end of the previous year(12/31/2024: 18.1 percent).

Non-current liabilities and provisions decreased to €302.7 million, primarily due to the repayment of non-current lease liabilities (12/31/2024: €306.1 million). Current liabilities and provisions decreased by €10.6 million to €284.4 million, (12/31/2024: €295.0 million). This was primarily as a result of a decline in accounts payable and contract liabilities.

In the first quarter of 2025 just ended, the operating cash flow was €18.5 million (Q1 2024: €33.2 million). The decrease is primarily due to working capital effects (lower reduction in working capital in the three-month period of 2025 just ended compared to the same period in the previous year) and the lower net income.

At €2.3 million, gross investments in the reporting period were well below the previous year's level (Q1 2024: €7.0 million). At 1.2 percent, the ratio of gross investments in relation to revenues was also below the level of the previous year (Q1 2024: 3.2 percent).

On the reporting date, unused lines of credit in the amount of €108.1 million exist in the EDAG Group (12/31/2024: €107.7 million). Unused lines of credit were therefore slightly increased. The Executive Management regards the overall economic situation of the EDAG Group as good. The company has a sound financial basis, and was able to meet its payment obligations at all times throughout the reporting period.

2.3 HR Management and Development

The success of the EDAG Group depends to a significant extent on committed and well qualified employees. Behind the company's comprehensive service portfolio are people with widely differing occupations and qualifications. In addition, the EDAG Group is also characterized by the special commitment and mentality of its employees. Throughout its more than 55 years of history, EDAG has always ensured that both young and experienced employees are offered interesting and challenging activities and projects, and are provided with the prospect of and the necessary space for personal responsibility and decision-making. And this is the primary focus of both our human resources management and development. For a more detailed representation of HR management and development, please see the Group Management Report in the Annual Report for 2024.

On March 31, 2025, the EDAG Group employed a workforce of 8,949 people (12/31/2024: 9,133 people). Personnel expenses in the reporting period amounted to €141.5 million (Q1 2024: €152.1 million).

3 Forecast, Risk and Reward Report

3.1 Risk and Reward Report

Compared to the to the risks and rewards described in the Group Management Report in the Annual Report for 2024, the following changes have occurred:

Operative risks in the first quarter of 2025 are in risk category A (2024: B), with an unchanged medium probability of occurrence. The personnel risks in Q1 have risen to a medium probability of occurrence (2024: low), the risk category C remains unchanged. Both adjustments are due to the tense market situation and capacity utilization risks.

On the date of publication of the Consolidated Interim Report, the Group Executive Management still does not believe that any of the risks reported and assessed in the Group Management Report in the Annual Report for 2024 will jeopardize the existence of the company. The effects of geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties as well as of protectionist trade restrictions do, however, pose a risk to EDAG.

In our opinion, our strategic orientation and financial direction, our position on the market and the measures we have taken all provide a sound basis for the successful handling of the existing risks and the challenges they present. For a more detailed representation of the Risk and Reward Report, please see the Group Management Report in the Annual Report for 2024.

3.2 Forecast

According to the latest IMF estimate announced on April 22, 2025, a slight decline in Germany's economic performance is expected in 2024 (-0.2 percent); growth is forecast to stagnate in 2025 (0.0 percent). Within the eurozone, the IMF expects a growth rate of 0.9 percent in 2024 and of 0.8 percent in 2025. Growth of the US economy was expected to reach 2.8 percent in 2024, while a growth rate of 1.8 percent is anticipated in 2025. According to latest estimates, China, with forecasts for a 5.0 percent increase in economic performance in 2024 and 4.0 percent in 2025, will continue to be a growth engine for the global economy. These anticipated growth rates in China will be surpassed by India, where an increase in economic performance of 6.5 percent is forecast for 2024 and of 6.2 percent for 2025.

Following an increase in new registrations in the major international automobile markets in 2024, the business environment of the automotive industry in 2025 is expected to continue to be very challenging. Protectionist, geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties are leading to changing assessments of future crossindustry development, in some instances within a very short period of time.

In its forecast of April 30, 2025, the VDA anticipates a slight increase in the number of registrations in the passenger car/light vehicle markets in Europe (2 percent) and the USA (2 percent) in 2025. Uncertainties do, however, persist, particularly on account of risks arising from trade policy. According to the VDA forecast, the growth rate of just 1 percent anticipated for the Chinese market in 2025 is below the level of growth in 2024 (6 percent). Overall, a historically high market volume has already been achieved in China, supported by the extension of the scrapping premium until 2025.

In its annual press conference on January 21, 2025, the VDA forecast that there would be a total of 80.4 million new vehicle registrations (cars and light commercial vehicles) on the global market in 2025. This is equivalent to a 2 percent increase compared to 2024.

Besides the sales figures, however, technological and digital trends are having an enormous influence not just on our own business model, but also on those of the OEMs. In particular, a large number of automotive startup companies can see an opportunity to reshape the mobility of the future. The current emission standards and far-reaching sustainability regulations are making the further development of classic powertrain types essential, and promoting the integration of alternative powertrains. The BEV/PHEV1 technologies are also becoming increasingly important. In addition, however, e-fuels and the hydrogen-based fuel cell are providing hightech engineering service providers with diverse opportunities. Additional challenges for all market participants are being created by the future-oriented fields of software, sensors, autonomous and connected driving, and the development of artificial intelligence. The development of new digital business fields and mobility services necessitates additional development and capacity requirements, which could lead to new growth opportunities for the engineering service market. The continuing consolidation of the engineering service providers and changed responsibility models in the drafting of work contracts will also bring about lasting changes within the sector.

1 Battery electric vehicle (BEV)/ plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV)

As a global-level partner to our customers, EDAG wants to operate successfully and achieve profitable growth rates again. EDAG is one of the top engineering service providers in the automotive sector, and well positioned to handle the market changes towards increasingly large and complex projects with more and more engineering responsibility. Targeted investments and a clear focus on our performance and technology spectrum have strengthened our international market position for fully integrated vehicle development and large module packages. By creating a synergy between the flexible and mobile application of our expertise, the utilization of our internal, best-cost country resources, and an international project management team, we strive, at a global level, to meet our customers' expectations.

The market for engineering services remains highly dynamic. With a growing focus on CO2 reduction, the development of alternative drive concepts is being massively accelerated. Trend topics such as highly automated driving and data-based business models call for completely new vehicle architectures, and are increasingly leading to a separation of hardware and software in development. The large number of powertrain variants will make flexible and networked smart factories indispensable. All these developments are driving the demand for development services, and will, in the medium to long term, lead to considerable opportunities. The VDA anticipates an investment volume of €320 billion in research and development in the automotive industry in the period 2025 to 2029; to this must be added capital investments in the amount of approx. €220 billion on the conversion of existing and the construction of new plants.

We do not at present see any risk to the continued existence of the company in the geopolitical conflicts, the persistently high level of energy and staffing costs, and the general slowdown in purchasing, but do see a risk that its development might be impaired. The ongoing dynamic situation in connection with geopolitical conflicts, and to some extent the protectionist economic policies being implemented in the global environment harbors uncertainties the development of which cannot be foreseen. It is difficult to make a reliable outlook with regard to possible consequences for supply chains and the availability of pre-products and raw materials in the industries relevant to us. With the exceptional uncertainties arising as a

result, companies across all sectors find themselves facing considerable challenges when it comes to forecasting economic development and deriving a reliable and dependable quantitative outlook. On the reporting date, unused lines of credit with credit institutions in the amount of €108.1 million exist in the Group. As a result, we see ourselves as being very well positioned to meet the challenges of the 2025 financial year.

Delays in the awarding of contracts, project cancellations, heterogeneous capacity utilization in different areas and locations, and continuing price pressure still pose substantial risks for engineering service providers.

In the first half of 2025, we continue to expect declines in both the top line (total operating performance) and the bottom line (adjusted EBIT). We do not expect to see a recovery of the automotive market until the second half of the year. We also anticipate positive momentum in other sectors, not least thanks to the Hannover Messe Industrie (HMI) show and the positive customer feedback we received there with regard to our industrial expertise. As a globally operating company, the EDAG Group is keeping a very keen eye on all forms of economic and geopolitical developments, and has made preparations to ensure that any additional countermeasures that prove necessary can be implemented without delay. In addition to the initiatives for growth and for increasing efficiency and competitiveness that have already been strategically implemented, we cannot rule out the possibility of further restructuring measures depending on how incoming orders develop. The forecast for 2025, which is set out in the Group Management Report for 2024, is confirmed. EDAG is still forecasting a decline in revenues of up to approx. 8 percent and an adjusted EBIT margin which, according to current estimates, will be in a positive range of up to approx. 3 percent. It is assumed that the investment rate is likely to remain at the previous year's level, i.e. in the region of approx. 3 percent.

However, the estimates outlined here are still largely dependent on the uncertainties described above.

A summary of the outlook for 2025 is included in the following table:

in € million 2024 Forecast 2025
Group
Sales revenues 822.0 Decline of up to approx. 8 percent
Adjusted EBIT margin 3.8% Positive level of up to approx. 3 percent
Investment rate 2.8% Approx. 3 percent

In addition to the Statement of Financial Position and the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements also include additional components, namely the Statement of Changes in Equity, the Cash Flow Statement and the notes. The separate report on the risks of future development is included in the Interim Group Management Report.

All estimates and assessments required for accounting and valuation in accordance with the IFRS standards are in conformity with the respective standards, are regularly reassessed, and are based on past experience and other factors including expectations as to future events that appear reasonable under the given circumstances. Wherever large-scale estimates were necessary, the assumptions made are set out in the note relating to the relevant item in the following.

The risks to the EDAG Group arising from the global crises are subject to continual analysis and evaluation, also with regard to their impact on the net assets, financial position and financial performance of the Group. Climate-related risks and opportunities for the EDAG Group are regularly assessed in our sustainability and CSR report, and have also been taken into due account within the scope of the financial reporting, including forecasts of expected business development. At the present time, we do not anticipate any material changes to our expectations with regard to the net assets, financial position and financial performance as a result of the climate crisis.

The Abridged Consolidated Financial Statements and the Interim Group Management Report have not been subjected to an audit review in accordance with ISRE 2410, nor have they been audited in accordance with § 317 of the German Commercial Code.

New, Changed or Revised Accounting Standards

EDAG Group AG has applied the following accounting standards adopted by the EU and legally required to be applied since January 1, 2025, although they did not have any significant effect on the assets, financial position and financial performance of the EDAG Group in the Consolidated Interim Report:

• IAS 21 – Lack of exchangeability (IASB publication: August 15, 2024; EU endorsement: November 12, 2024)

Accounting and Valuation Principles

For this Consolidated Interim Report, a discount rate of 3.86 percent has been used for pension provisions in Germany 12/31/2024: 3.45 percent). A discount rate of 1.38 percent has been used for pension provisions in Switzerland (12/31/2024: 1.05 percent).

In accordance with the objective of financial statements set out in F.12 et seq., IAS 1.9 and IAS 8.10 et seq., IAS 34.30(c) was applied when determining income tax expense for the interim reporting period. Accordingly, the weighted average expected annual tax rate in the amount of 33.33 percent (12/31/2024: 17.78 percent effective reported tax ratio) was used.

Otherwise, the same accounting and valuation methods and consolidation principles as were used in the 2024 Consolidated Financial Statements for EDAG Group AG were applied when preparing the Consolidated Interim Report and determining comparative figures. A detailed description of these methods has been published in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report for 2024. This Consolidated Interim Report should therefore be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of EDAG Group AG for December 31, 2024.

Irregular expenses incurred during the financial year are reported in cases where reporting would also be effected at the end of the financial year.

The EDAG Group's operating activities are not subject to any significant seasonal influences.

Estimates and Discretionary Decisions

Preparation of the Consolidated Interim Report in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and discretionary decisions that may affect the recognition and measurement of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet, the disclosure of contingent receivables and liabilities on the balance sheet date, and the reported income and expenses for the reporting period.

Due to the continuing geopolitical conflicts, these estimates and discretionary decisions are subject to increased uncertainty. The amounts actually realized may deviate from these estimates and discretionary decisions; changes may have a material impact on the Consolidated Interim Report.

5.3 Changes in the Scope of Consolidation

Compared to December 31, 2024, there were no amendments to the group of combined or consolidated companies in the first quarter of the 2025 financial year, which as of March 31, 2025 is composed as follows:

Switzerland Germany Other

The companies included at acquisition cost are for the most part non-operational companies and general partners, and are not included in the scope of consolidation. The company accounted for using the equity method that is included is an associated company.

5.4 Currency Translation

Hyperinflation

Since the second quarter of 2022, Turkey has been classified as a hyperinflationary economy in accordance with IAS 29 "Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies". Accounting for the activities there is therefore not carried out on the basis of historical acquisition or production costs, but is presented adjusted for the effects of inflation. The IMF (International Monetary Fund) price index for consumer goods is used here (inflation in Turkey in 2025: 24.0 percent). Gains and losses from hyperinflation are included in equity, in the reserves from currency translation differences.

After the figures have been adjusted for the effects of inflation, balance sheet items and income and expenses are translated into the reporting currency, the euro, at

the closing rate on the balance sheet date, in accordance with IAS 21.42. This did not result in any material effect. The previous year's figures are not adjusted in accordance with the requirements of IAS 21 "The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates" for financial statements in non-hyperinflationary reporting currencies.

5.5 Reconciliation of the Adjusted Operating Profit (Adjusted EBIT)

In addition to the data required according to the IFRS, the segment reporting also includes a reconciliation to the adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (adjusted EBIT). Adjustments include income from initial consolidations and deconsolidations, expenses and earnings relating to restructuring, all effects of purchase price allocations on EBIT and special effects from compensation payments.

5.6 Segment Reporting

The segment reporting is prepared in accordance with IFRS 8 "Operating segments". Individual consolidated results are reported by company divisions in conformity with the internal reporting and organizational structure of the EDAG Group. The key performance indicator for the Group Executive Management at segment level is the EBIT/adjusted EBIT. The segment presentation is designed to show the profitability as well as the assets and financial situation of the individual business activities. Intercompany sales are accounted for at customary market prices and are equivalent to sales towards third parties (arm's length principle).

As at March 31, 2025, the non-current assets amounted to €378.7 million (12/31/2024: €382.7 million). Of these, €2.5 million are domestic, €331.5 million are German, and €44.7 million are non-domestic (12/31/2024: [domestic: €2.6 million; Germany: €332.4 million; non-domestic: €43.8 million]).

The assets, liabilities and provisions are not reported by segments, as this information is not part of the internal reporting.

The Vehicle Engineering segment (VE) consists of services along the vehicle development process as well as responsibility for derivative and complete vehicles. For descriptions of the individual departments in this segment, please see the chapter "Business Model" in the Interim Group Management Report.

The range of services offered by the Electrics/Electronics segment (E/E) includes the development of electrical and electronic systems, components, functions and services for everything from show cars and prototypes to the complete vehicle. These services are performed in competencies which are described in greater detail in the chapter "Business Model" in the Interim Group Management Report.

As an all-round engineering partner, the Production Solutions segment (PS) is responsible for the development and implementation of production processes. In addition to handling the individual stages in the product creation process and all factory and production systems-related services, Production Solutions are also able to optimally plan complete factories over all fields, including cross processes, and to provide the realization from a single source. For more detailed descriptions of the individual departments in this segment, please see the chapter "Business Model" in the Interim Group Management Report.

Income and expenses as well as results between the segments are eliminated in the consolidation.

5.7 Contingent Liabilities/Receivables and Other Financial Obligations

Contingent Liabilities

As at the end of the 2024 financial year, there were no material contingent liabilities on the reporting date.

Other Financial Obligations

In addition to the provisions and liabilities, there are also other financial obligations, and these are composed as follows:

in € thousand 3/31/2025 12/31/2024
Open purchase orders 2,506 2,960
Total renting and leasing contracts 6,610 7,301
Other miscellaneous financial obligations 98 124
Total 9,214 10,385

The obligations from rental and leasing contracts are composed primarily of leasing agreements for low-value assets in the form of IT equipment, of short-term rental agreements and software leasing.

Contingent Receivables

As at the end of the 2024 financial year, there were no material contingent receivables on the reporting date.

5.8 Financial Instruments

Net Financial Debt/Credit

The Group Executive Management's aim is to keep the net financial debt as low as possible in relation to equity (net gearing).

in € thousand 3/31/2025 12/31/2024
Non-current financial liabilities - 101,002 - 101,005
Non-current lease liabilities - 166,689 - 168,789
Current financial liabilities - 57,522 - 57,698
Current lease liabilities - 18,062 - 17,687
Current securities, loans and financial instruments 68 29
Cash and cash equivalents 132,756 125,469
Net financial debt/credit [-/+] - 210,451 - 219,681

Equity 132,823 133,070
Net gearing [%] incl. lease liabilities 158.4% 165.1%

At €210.5 million, the net financial debt on March 31, 2025 is €9.2 million below the value on December 31, 2024 (€219.7 million). Without taking lease liabilities into account, the net financial debt on March 31, 2025 amounts to €25.7 million (12/31/2024: €33.2 million).

As of March 31, 2025, there are still two promissory note loans composed of several tranches with various interest rates and terms to maturity of 0.5 to 5.5 years.

As of March 31, 2025, there is a current loan, including interest, in the amount of €15.6 million from VKE-Versorgungskasse EDAG-Firmengruppe e.V., the other major creditor (12/31/2024: €15.8 million).

A further component of the net financial debt are liabilities from leases. The liabilities from leases primarily include future leasing payments for office buildings, warehouses, production facilities and cars measured using the effective interest method.

The EDAG Group has unused lines of credit in the amount of €108.1 million on the reporting date (12/31/2024: €107.7 million).

One of the major factors influencing the net financial debt is the working capital, which developed as follows:

in € thousand 3/31/2025 12/31/2024
Inventories 6,014 4,673
+ Current contract assets 98,570 67,430

- Current other non-financial liabilities - 59,641 - 59,753

= Other working capital (OWC) - 5,613 - 3,941
Net working capital (NWC) 81,721 89,535

Compared to December 31, 2024, the trade working capital decreased by €6,142 thousand to €87,334 thousand. The decrease is due mainly to the reduction in accounts receivable. By way of contrast, there were increases in the capital commitment in contract assets and contract liabilities.

As can be seen from the table above, there was a decrease of €1,672 thousand in the other working capital to €-5,613 thousand, compared to December 31, 2024.

Carrying Amounts, Valuation Rates and Fair Values of the Financial Instruments as per Measurement Category

The principles and methods for assessing at fair value have not changed compared to the previous year. Detailed explanations of the valuation principles and methods can be found in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report of EDAG Group AG for 2024.

For the most part, cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other receivables have only a short time to maturity. For this reason, their carrying amounts on the reporting date are close approximations of the fair values.

The fair values of other receivables with a remaining term of more than a year correspond to the net present values of the payments associated with the assets, taking into account the relevant interest parameters, which reflect the market and counterparty-related changes in conditions and expectations.

The investments and securities are measured at fair value. In the case of equity interests for which no market price is available, the acquisition costs are applied as a reasonable estimate of the fair value. In the financial assets, shares in nonconsolidated subsidiaries and other investments are recognized at acquisition cost, taking impairments into account, as no observable fair values are available and other admissible methods of evaluation do not produce reliable results. There are currently no plans to sell these financial instruments.

Accounts payable and other financial liabilities regularly have short terms to maturity, and the values posted are close approximations of the fair values.

The carrying amounts or fair values of all financial instruments recorded in the abridged Consolidated Financial Statements are shown in the following table:

The fair values of securities correspond to the nominal value multiplied by the exchange quotation on the reporting date.

The attributable fair values of liabilities due to credit institutions, loans, other financial liabilities and other interest-bearing liabilities are calculated as present values of the debt-related payments, based on the EDAG current yield curve valid at the time. The valuation of the fair value took place according to the "Level 2" measurement category on the basis of a discounted cash flow model. In this context, the current market rates of interest and the contractually agreed parameters were taken as the basis.

The information for the determination of attributable fair value is given in tabular form, based on a three-level fair value hierarchy for each class of financial instrument. There are three measurement categories:

Level 1: At level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, the attributable fair values are measured using listed market prices, as the best possible fair values for financial assets or liabilities can be observed in active markets.

Level 2: If there is no active market for a financial instrument, a company uses valuation models to determine the attributable fair value. Valuation models include the use of current business transactions between competent, independent business partners willing to enter into a contract; comparison with the current attributable fair value of another, essentially identical financial instrument; use of the discounted cash flow method; or of option pricing models. The attributable fair value is estimated on the basis of the results achieved using one of the valuation methods, making the greatest possible use of market data and relying as little as possible on companyspecific data.

Level 3: The valuation models used at this level are not based on observable market data.

Legal Notice

The Consolidated Interim Report includes statements about future developments. Like any form of entrepreneurial activity in a global environment, these statements are always associated with a degree of uncertainty. Our descriptions are based on the convictions and assumptions of the management, which in turn are based on currently available information. The following factors may, however, affect the success of our strategic and operative measures: geopolitical risks, changes in general economic conditions, in particular a prolonged economic recession, changes to exchange rates and interest rates, the launch of products by competitors, including increasing competitive pressure. Should any of these factors or other uncertainties materialize, or the assumptions on which the statements are based prove to be inaccurate, the actual results may differ from the forecast results. EDAG does not intend to continuously update predictive statements and information items, as they relate to the circumstances that existed on the date of their publication.
