OUR COMPANY:

Headed towards becoming the leading platform group

The Platform Group AG (TPG) is a software company that operates digital platform solutions in over 27 sectors. The aim is to bring customers (B2C and B2B customers) and partners together across Europe via our platform solutions.

In 2025, we were able to connect 15,781 partners to our platforms, successfully expanding our product range in the 27 sectors. Because our logic is this: The more partners we gain, the more products can be marketed, leading to more customers that generate a higher gross merchandise volume (GMV).

Since 2012, TPG has recorded significant annual growth and has consistently operated profitably. As a company characterized by strict cost efficiency, a low overhead structure and a clear focus on profitable business, we have always avoided losses or negative operating cash flows merely for the sake of growth. All of our Group's segments made positive EBITDA contributions, with overall profitability reaching a record level in 2025.

In order to enter new sectors and establish our platform solution there, we frequently pursue a route that entails acquiring companies in the target sector. More than 35 acquisitions have been completed in recent years, with a strong M&A team and a professional post-merger project structure subsequently ensuring that each portfolio company makes a contribution to our enterprise value.

Our medium-term goal for 2026 is to engage in 35 sectors, achieve a gross merchandise volume of at least EUR 1.6 billion and report an EBITDA margin of at least 7.5%. Our diversification strategy and our broad B2B partner base enable us to generate positive value without being dependent on a single sector.

Accordingly, we are well on the way to becoming the leading platform group in Europe.

01 GOAL & MISSION

We want to become the leading platform group in Europe. To achieve this, we want to establish our platform and software solutions in new sectors, connect partners worldwide, and address new countries.

OUR SUSTAINABLE GROWTH MODEL

We are aiming for sustainable growth, stable returns and good capital allocation.

The basis for this is our broadly diversifi ed portfolio of good companies that implement software and platform solutions in niche areas.

The more partners we connect to our platforms, the more products we add. The more products we have the more customers we reach, causing revenues to increase, thus establishing a growth cycle. This allows us to shield ourselves from industry trends.

Our strategy ensures that lasting value is created for our shareholders and that TPG boosts its enterprise value in the long term.

02 DNA

We live an entrepreneurial culture. We implement things quickly. And we want to grow profi tably. Lasting value growth is paramount. We call it the TPG DNA.

03 INDUSTRIES

We have deliberately chosen niche markets in e-commerce. This allows us to grow across a broad portfolio of companies and sectors. We want to expand our software and platform solutions into new industries and connect new partners — they are our growth drivers.

04 STRATEGY

We are growing in the long term and increasing the value of the company on a permanent basis. Our software forms the basis for this. By expanding the number of industries and partners, we are becoming more robust and can implement profitable growth in a scalable manner. M&A activities are essential for entering new sectors.

05 BUSINESS MODEL

Each of our verticals and investments contributes to our platform strategy. Our business model eintails connecting partners (retailers/manufacturers) with customers worldwide on our platforms. This is based on our software and platform solution, which we can scale to new industries.

THE PLATFORM GROUP AG

OUR STRUCTURE

The Platform Group AG has a simple structure based on three levels: The corporate level, at which the operating subsidiaries conduct their business. The segment level, in which the Group's entrepreneurial framework is defi ned by means of four segments. And the Group level, which manages the Group as a whole, makes overriding investment decisions and guides the Group's long-term growth.

COMPANY

For more information about our companies, visit: www.the-platform-group.com

SEGMENTS

Our Group has four segments. A fi fth segment will be added in the second half of the year: Optics & Hearing.

Our portfolio companies are independent entities that are managed by individual management teams. They are closely integrated within TPG: Our central, operational holding company provides numerous services, from software development to marketing. This creates economies of scale, reduces the subsidiaries' costs and boosts revenues signifi cantly. The entrepreneurial spirit plays a key role in this regard: We actively leverage market opportunities in profi table e-commerce niches and aim to outpace the market as a whole. We hold our investments for the long term.

Four segments form the basis for our business activities: Consumer Goods, Freight Goods, Industrial Goods and Service & Retail Goods. Each segment has different performance indicators based on the specifi c products and platforms in each segment. Within each segment, we amass software, logistics, marketing and HR expertise. Individual targets, growth initiatives and cost programs are defi ned for each segment.

GROUP

For more information, visit: www.the-platform-group.com The Platform Group is highly specialized in the management and optimization of equity investments, overseeing them via a central, operational holding company. The focus here is on effi cient capital allocation. The TPG Board of Directors sets the strategic goals. The overriding principle is to generate profi table growth, high cash fl ows and a good return on investment with the primary aim of enhancing the Group's value in the long term.

OUR GOAL & MISSION

The Platform Group AG wants to become the leading platform group in Europe. Our medium-term goal is to operate in 35 sectors, achieve a gross merchandise volume of at least EUR 1.6 billion and reach an EBITDA margin of at least 7.5%.

The basis for this is our software, which is our most important asset alongside our employees. In recent years, we have invested heavily in our software and in extensive ERP interfaces so that we can clearly differentiate ourselves from our peers and secure a competitive edge.

Our diversification across 27 sectors at the moment shields us from individual sector trends. Our growth is primarily determined by connecting new partners and implementing their products in our digital platform solution. The number of partners is therefore the key and driver for our growth. Our aim is to significantly increase the number of partners and thus expand our product range. This will result in more customers, higher gross merchandise volumes and greater profit.

Our strategy pursues the overarching goal of creating high added value for our affiliated partners and their customers through our software and platform solutions in a way that they cannot achieve on their own, thereby enabling them to participate in the global e-commerce market.

Pursuing this goal drives our business forward in three ways:

SOFTWARE AS A BASIS

The basis for connecting partners (retailers and manufacturers) with customers is software. We have been investing in our own proprietary software solutions for over 10 years. This allows us to unlock value ourselves. Moreover, we are not dependent on thirdparty providers and can quickly enter new sectors with our software.

Our software developers work in over five countries, are proficient in numerous programming languages and collaborate in agile teams.

INDUSTRIES, M&A, AND PARTNERS

Our aim is to establish our software and platform solutions in new sectors. We would like to increase the current number of sectors from 27 to 35 by the end of 2026.

To this end, we are actively pursuing M&A acquisitions to enter new sectors. Our goal is to complete 3-8 acquisitions per year.

Our partners form the basis of our growth: Over 15,700 partners (retailers/manufacturers) are currently connected to our platforms. We would like to significantly increase this number. This is because with each new partner come new products, and with new products we reach more customers, which in turn generates greater revenues.

PEOPLE

Without good employees, we cannot be successful – despite AI and automation. We are therefore actively investing in our team, bringing in the best talent and creating a performance culture.

Our entrepreneurial DNA is deeply rooted: It has been internalized from recruitment and management to promotions.

THE PLATFORM GROUP AG

OUR STRATEGY

HALF YEAR REPORT 2025

Our growth strategy entails expanding our software and platform solutions in order to enter new sectors. We currently address 27 sectors, with this fi gure to be increased to 35 in the future.

M&A is a central means of pursuing a target-oriented path into a new industry. Our aim is to acquire companies on the basis of fair valuations, boost revenues and lower costs in an anti-cyclical manner. This ensures effi cient capital allocation and, consequently, a high return on capital.

OUR STRATEGY

Segments and portfolio companies

We actively manage our portfolio companies and ensure that they systematically pursue a profitable growth strategy. The four core segments of our Group (Consumer, Industrial, Freight and Service/ Retail Goods) form the framework for new investments for and entering new sectors with our software and platform solutions.

M&A

TPG has successfully established itself in the M&A market with a track record of over 35 transactions. Our own M&A team have clear requirements when it comes to viable candidates and how they are to contribute to the Group's value in the future. TPG stands distinctly apart from private equity players. We hold our investments for the long term, leverage real revenue and cost ef-fects through our operational holding company and thus unlock real value that others do not offer.

PRODUCTS

Unlocking value

Thanks to our strategy of profitable growth in numerous sectors, we are achieving above-average profitability. This is enabling us to enhance the Group's value in the long term. Plus, we can generate a high return on our capital.

Sectors

We deliberately invest in niche e-commerce sectors such as machinery trade, bicycle parts, financial platforms or artificial plants as this is where we see strong growth potential and we are able to clearly set ourselves apart from our peers in mass markets. Niche sectors also have the advantage of having less competition: Price competition is lower and the number of operators is small.

Products & Partner

We are able to grow against the trend and against industry developments. Why? Quite simply because we grow by connecting new partners (retailers/manufacturers) to our platform, thereby receiving more products and gaining new customers. In this way, our marketing costs are much lower compared to pure e-commerce players. Plus, our platform strategy allows us to avoid tying up large amounts of capital.

Long-term investments

Our Group generates a strong cash flow from its operating activities, all of which we invest in two areas: (a) software development and (b) M&A activities. Both contribute directly to our strategy of achieving profitable growth in numerous sectors.

MARKET, SECTORS AND INVESTMENTS

The Platform Group AG is active in 27 sectors (as of June 30, 2025) and plans to expand this number to 35 by 2026. Our sector overview:

THE PLATFORM GROUP AG

Letter from the Board of Directors

Dear shareholders,

The fi rst half of 2025 was a special one for our Group: After a very successful fi nancial year in 2024, we have already had to raise our forecast for the 2025 fi nancial year twice. The backdrop to this was that, on the one hand, signifi cantly more partners are connected via our platforms and, thus, more products are being sold to more customers. Over 15,700 partners are now part of our platform strategy, which is being successfully implemented in 27 sectors. On the other hand, the companies we acquired in 2024 made a signifi cant contribution to our strong revenues and earnings.

Accordingly, we have every reason to be very satisfi ed with our performance in the fi rst half of 2025, in which we were able to reach and even exceed all our targets: Gross merchandise volume (GMV) rose by 47% to over EUR 652 million, while revenues increased by 48% to EUR 343 million. Strict cost discipline, our cost management program and a greater focus on profi table areas allowed us to boost our operating earnings by 90% to EUR 33.3 million (EBITDA adjusted). This is the highest fi gure we have ever achieved as a Group in any six-month period. The Group's net profi t amounted to EUR 33.3 million, equivalent to an increase of 77%.

Our software is the key driver behind this performance, and we have been able to signifi cantly expand the functions and enhance its scalability in the last twelve months. This enables us to enter new sectors more quickly and implement our platform model there. We can also actively reduce the cost position of the companies acquired and thus tap into new revenue potential.

Alongside the software, our employees are our company's most important potential and resource. There are now 1,287 employees working for our Group in more than seven countries. In order to increasingly meet the requirements for good leadership, we have decided to signifi cantly broaden the C level and have appointed seven people for this purpose. Together with the C level, over 75 managing directors and executives lead our Group. In addition to the change in management, the Supervisory Board and Board of Directors have submitted a proposal to change TPG's legal form to "SE & Co. KGaA". The upcoming Annual General Meeting on August 25, 2025 will be voting on this.

Our growth was organic but also driven by acquisitions in the fi rst half of the year. We achieved our goal of balanced expansion fueled by acquisitions and organic growth in the fi rst half of the year. At the same time, we have already completed seven acquisitions this year, including successful companies in the building materials and optics/hearing aids sectors. The latter area will be so important for us as we move forward that we have decided to establish a fi fth Group segment specifi cally devoted to it. The target EBITDA margin for this new segment is 25% and will be a key driver of profi tability in the coming years. In order to focus more on relevant, large companies in the future and thus accelerate profi table growth, we have decided to selectively sell small companies that do not make any signifi cant contribution to revenues or earnings.

At 48.3%, equity-ratio has risen to its highest level in recent years, the Group's cash fl ow from operating activities is positive, reaching EUR 23 million in the fi rst half of the year. At the same time, we invested over EUR 31 million in new companies and equity interests, which is the highest fi gure in our company's history to date. According to the forecast, bank leverage stands at 2.1, which is below our target for the year as a whole.

We consider our approach to acquisitions and integration to be unique, as we are not yet aware of any player that consistently acquires companies, implements its proprietary software and platform solution, manages the investments through an operational holding company and thus jointly harnesses cost and growth potential. This signifi cant differentiator clearly sets us apart from fi nancial investors, family offi ces and other strategic buyers, and subsequently allows us gain access to the best possible transaction opportunities in the European market. In this respect, we expect to take advantage of the currently favorable acquisition conditions in the second half of the year and complete further acquisitions. We believe that we can acquire all investments and acquisitions at attractive valuations, tap negative goodwill effects in individual cases and initially unlock the value of the investments acquired and then enhance it in the long term through (a) our expertise, (b) our software and platform skills and (c) the TPG operational holding company, which manages the investments and boosts cost effi ciency.

In the course of 2025, our share price has risen slightly, resulting in a market capitalization of roughly EUR 196 million as of June 30, 2024. In view of our company's sales and profitability, we as the Board of Directors see significant potential for future increases in value.

We raised our forecast for the 2025 financial year on July 31, 2025 and now project a gross merchandise volume (GMV) of EUR 1.3 billion, net revenues of EUR 715 – 735 million and adjusted EBITDA of EUR 54 – 58 million. On the strength of our positive business performance and current acquisition plans, we have also raised our medium-term forecast significantly for the upcoming 2026 financial year.

We invite you, dear shareholders, to continue accompanying us on this journey as we move forward.

Kind regards,

Dr. Dominik Benner Chairman of the Board of Directors

REVIEW OF THE FIRST HALF OF 2025

The first half of 2025 was the most successful half-year period in the history of The Platform Group AG. It closed the first half of the year (January 1 - June 30, 2025) with a gross merchandise volume (GMV, continuing operations) of EUR 652.1 million (previous year: EUR 442.5 million) and revenues of EUR 343.0 million (previous year: EUR 231.5 million), thus exceeding the internal budget. This growth was underpinned by an increase in the number of affiliated partners to 15,781 (previous year: 12,547) and the successful expansion of the platform and software solutions to include 27 sectors. Four acquisitions were completed in the first half of 2025, while there were three further signings that will be closing by August.

Under the comprehensive cost and efficiency program implemented in 2024, profitability also improved significantly in 2025, with adjusted EBITDA rising by 89.6% to EUR 33.3 million (previous year: EUR 17.6 million). Reported EBITDA reached EUR 43.7 million (previous year: EUR 30.0 million), while consolidated net profit came to EUR 33.3 million (previous year: EUR 18.8 million). This translates into earnings of EUR 1.55 per share (previous year: EUR 0.90 per share), equivalent to an increase of 77.2%.

MACROECONOMIC CONDITIONS

The global economy showed clear signs of recovery in the fi rst half of 2025, accompanied by moderate growth and a rapid decline in infl ation, prompting central banks to embark on preliminary steps towards monetary easing. At the same time, this trend is strengthening consumer confi dence. Wages and salaries are continuing to rise, causing real incomes to widen.

The German economy saw a slight recovery in the fi rst half of 2025 with GDP growth of 0.4% in the fi rst quarter, driven by exports to the United States and consumer spending. The fi rst quarter was characterized by an increase in capital spending, slight growth in the manufacturing industry and a rise in foreign trade.

However, the second quarter witnessed a slowdown with a quarter-on-quarter decline of 0.1% in GDP, while consumer spending continued to rise. The labor market was relatively stable, while infl ation subsided and interest rates remained stable, something that points to subdued momentum.

The Ifo Institute's business confi dence barometer indicates a slightly positive trend and rising confi dence (Ifo Institute June 2025). Growth of 2.5% is expected in the e-commerce segment in 2025 (BEVH, January 22, 2025).

BUSINESS PERFORMANCE

In the reporting period from January 1 to June 30, 2025, TPG recorded GMV of EUR 652.1 million (previous year: EUR 442.5 mil-lion), with net revenues increasing from EUR 231.5 million (H1 2024) to EUR 343.0 million. This increase was accompanied by growth in the number of active customers (LTM) from 4.8 million (2024) to 6.2 million (2025), while the average order value climbed from EUR 118 (H1 2024) to EUR 124 (H1 2025).

The cost of materials increased in line with revenues to EUR 226.0 million (previous year: EUR 165.4 million). Personnel expenses rose from EUR 12.5 million (previous year) to EUR 17.1 million due to an increase in the number of employees as a result of acquisitions. Marketing expenses climbed from EUR 14.5 million (previous year) to EUR 20.5 million mainly because of expanded campaigns and advertising activities in social media channels. Distribution expenses increased from EUR 17.8 million (previous year) to EUR 27.1 million. This was primarily due to higher freight and logistics costs for our warehousing and shipping service providers in Germany and abroad. Other operating expenses rose from EUR 7.5 million (previous year) to EUR 21.6 million.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (reported EBITDA) increased from EUR 30.0 million (previous year) to EUR 43.7 million. The adjustments to EBITDA include one-off effects (EUR 0.95 million) and income from purchase price allocation and consolidation effects. Adjusted EBITDA amounted to EUR 33.3 million in the reporting period, translating into a signifi cant increase over the same period of the previous year (previous year: EUR 17.6 million). Consolidated net profi t from continuing operations rose to EUR 33.3 million, up from EUR 21.7 million in the same period of the previous year. As there were no discontinued operations in the fi rst half of 2025, the disclosure of continuing operations relates solely to the reporting period from January 1 to June 30, 2024.

At EUR 33.3 million, consolidated net profi t was signifi cantly higher than in the same period of the previous year (2024: EUR 18.8 million). This translates into earnings of EUR 1.55 per share (previous year: EUR 0.90 per share).

Our Consumer Goods segment grew signifi cantly on revenues of EUR 217.2 million (previous year: EUR 126.1 million), accompanied by a further increase in profi tability. In particular, OEGE, 0815, fashionette and the TPG platforms made a signifi cant contribution to growth. Adjusted EBITDA rose from EUR 9.8 million (previous year) to EUR 23.4 million, yielding a margin of 10.8%.

The Freight Goods segment grew slightly, with net revenues climbing from EUR 46.3 million (prior-year period) to EUR 54.3 million. Adjusted EBITDA amounted to EUR 4.9 million, up from EUR 4.3 million in the same period of the previous year. Growth fell slightly short of the internal budget.

The Industrial Goods segment achieved a slightly better margin in the reporting period, with the measures that have been taken having an effect. Revenues rose from EUR 32.1 million to EUR 38.4 million. Adjusted EBITDA climbed from EUR 1.4 million to EUR 1.7 million. Key companies in this segment include GINDUMAC, BEVMAQ and Lott Fahrzeugteile.

The fourth segment, Service & Retail Goods, posted revenues of EUR 33.0 million (previous year: EUR 27.0 million), with adjusted EBITDA coming to EUR 3.2 million (previous year: EUR 2.0 million). The growth of the companies and greater demand from pharmacies for Apo-Now were decisive factors in this respect.

Following the entry into the optics sector announced in June 2025 and the associated acquisitions, TPG has announced that it will be creating a separate segment under the name "Optics & Hearing" within the Group from July 1, 2025. A revised segment report will be included in the 2025 Annual Report.

As of the reporting date, the Group had 1,287 employees, up from 794 on the same date in the previous year.

FINANCIAL POSITION

The cash fl ow from operating activities amounted to EUR 23.0 million in the period from January 1 to June 30, 2025. Largely driven by outfl ows for acquisitions and other investments, cash fl ow from investing activities amounted to EUR -31.3 million in the period under review. Cash fl ow from fi nancing activities came to a net EUR 0.6 million. Changes to cash and cash equivalents recognized in the cash fl ow statement stood at EUR -7.7 million. The cash and cash equivalents available at the end of the period under review (June 30, 2025) amounted to EUR 14.5 million.

ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

The Group's assets and liabilities are presented in the following condensed statement of financial position.

ASSETS June 30, 2025 Dec. 31, 2024

Total non-current assets 181.138 164.487
Total current assets 167.524 158.692

Non-current liabilities 109.250 102.838
Current liabilities 71.001 85.274
Total capital 348.662 323.179

The Group's total assets have increased since December 31, 2024 to EUR 348.7 million (December 31, 2024: EUR 323.2 million). This was due in particular to the increase in non-current assets. Intangible assets climbed from EUR 89.2 million (Decem-ber 31, 2024) to EUR 97.5 million.

Equity rose from EUR 135.1 million (December 31, 2023) to EUR 168.4 million, primarily due to the net profit for the period and the firsttime consolidation of the shares in the equity of the acquired investments. The equity ratio widened to 48%.

Non-current liabilities increased to EUR 109.3 million (December 31, 2024: EUR 102.8 million). Current liabilities dropped substantially to EUR 71.0 million (December 31, 2024: EUR 85.3 million). This decline was mainly due to the reduction in trade payables and other liabilities.

Total capital rose from EUR 323.2 million (December 31, 2024) to EUR 348.7 million as a result of the aforementioned factors.

RISKS AND OPPORTUNITIES

The results of the risk analysis for the fi rst half of 2025 (January 1 - June 30, 2025) are consistent with the challenges and information presented in our 2024 Annual Report.

Monthly reviews were carried out as part of the ongoing risk and opportunity analyses. As no new risks or opportunities have been identifi ed since the 2024 Annual Report, there are no changes to the assessment of the existing opportunities and risks. Please refer to the 2024 Annual Report for more information.

FORECAST

In view of the success achieved in the fi rst half of 2025, the favorable performance of all four Group segments, the performance to date of the acquisitions and the higher number of partners, the Board of Directors expects The Platform Group AG to remain on its growth trajectory, with earnings continuing to grow. Specifi cally, the following forecast published on July 31, 2025, is confi rmed:

  • Gross merchandise volume (GMV) should rise to EUR 1.3 billion.
  • Net revenues should increase to between EUR 715 million and EUR 735 million.
  • Underpinned by revenue growth and the effects of the cost and effi ciency program, adjusted EBITDA is expected to climb to between EUR 54 million and EUR 58 million.

The forecast relates to TPG and its currently consolidated companies. If further acquisitions are completed in the second half of the year and these contribute signifi cantly to revenues and earnings, the forecast will be adjusted accordingly.

ABRIDGED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. General information

The Platform Group AG ("TPG" or "the company") is a company incorporated in Germany. It has been entered in the commercial register of the Local Court of Düsseldorf under the number HRB 91139. The company's registered offi ces are located at Am Falder 4, 40589 Düsseldorf, Germany.

These consolidated interim fi nancial statements encompass the company and its subsidiaries (jointly referred to as the "Group" or "TPG").

TPG is a software and platform company that operates platform solutions for e-commerce in 27 sectors and actively acquires and manages investments.

2. Basis of presentation

2.1 Confi rmation of compliance with IFRS

The consolidated interim fi nancial statements cover the reporting period from January 1, 2025 until June 30, 2025 as well as the comparison period from January 1, 2024 until June 30, 2024. The consolidated statement of fi nancial position, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated cash fl ow statement as well as the abridged notes are presented for the current reporting period and the comparison period. TPG's consolidated fi nancial statements were prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as published by the in-ternational Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and endorsed by the European Union. The term "IFRS" also includes all applicable International Accounting Standards (IAS) as well as the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee (IFRIC), supplemented by the provisions of section 315e of the German Commercial Code. The consolidated interim fi nancial statements were prepared on a going concern-basis. The fi nancial statements were approved by management on August 18, 2025 and subsequently forwarded to the Supervisory Board for review and approval.

The assets and liabilities in the consolidated statement of fi nancial position were classifi ed as current or non-current in accordance with IAS 1 and the criteria defi ned in IAS 1.54 et seq.

TPG applied the total cost method in the presentation of the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, opting for the use of a one-statement approach. The consolidated statement of fi nancial position complies with the classifi cation requirements set out in IAS 1 "Presentation of the Financial Statements". Within the presentation of the items of other comprehensive income, items that are recycled to profi t or loss are presented separately from those that are never recycled. Assets and liabilities are classifi ed according to settlement date. TPG reports consolidated cash fl ows from operating activities using the indirect method.

Individual items in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and the consolidated statement of fi nancial position are aggregated to enhance the clarity of the presentation.

Unless otherwise stated, all amounts have been rounded to the nearest thousand. As amounts are stated in thousands of euros, rounding in accordance with commercial principles may lead to rounding differences. In some cases, such rounded amounts and percentages do not add up to 100% of the totals shown, and the subtotals in the tables may differ slightly from the non-rounded fi gures.

2.2 Financial statements

The consolidated interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as endorsed by the EU.

2.3 Going concern status

The consolidated interim financial statements were prepared on the basis of the going concern assumption in accordance with IAS 1.25.

2.4 Valuation principles

The consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the historical cost principle. This does not generally apply to derivative financial instruments, as these are recognized at fair value on the reporting date. A corresponding explanation is provided in the details on the respective accounting policies.

2.5 Functional and reporting currency

The consolidated financial statements are presented in euros, which is TPG's functional currency.

2.6 Current/non-current distinction

An asset is classified as current if it is expected to be settled or consumed within TPG's normal operating cycle of one year. All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is classified as current if it is expected to be settled within TPG's normal operating cycle of one year. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

2.7 Reporting entity structure

Compared to the consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2024, the reporting entity structure has been expanded to include the following companies: (1) Lyra Pet GmbH, Albstadt (80.00% interest), (2) Herbertz GmbH, Solingen (100% interest), (3) Joli Closet Paris SAS, Paris (50.1% interest), (4) Finone GmbH, Frankfurt am Main (51.00% interest).

In addition, TPG Fulfillment GmbH, Gladbeck, TPG Goldhandel GmbH, Wiesbaden, and TPG Swiss AG, Zug (Switzerland) were established and consolidated.

Beste Aussichten GmbH, Münster, and Karrasch & Nolte GmbH, Münster, will be consolidated from July 1, 2025; the same applies to majority shareholdings acquired by the two companies in the optics and hearing aid sector (including Freudenhaus Optik Han-dels GmbH, Munich, and FH EYWR GmbH, Munich).

3. Events after the reporting date

After the reporting date, the acquisition of a majority shareholding in WeConnect Work GmbH, based in Bad Ems, was announced. This company operates a platform for construction services and building materials and addresses exclusively B2B customers. It will be assigned to the Industrial Goods segment.

TPG intends to acquire further platforms and companies in the pharmaceutical sector. Since 2021, it has held a majority stake in ApoNow GmbH, which operates platform and e-commerce solutions for 41,500 pharmacies and 350 pharmaceutical manufacturers. TPG intends to significantly expand this area through selective acquisitions. To this end, talks are currently being held on the acquisition of three companies that operate pharmaceutical platforms. Corresponding LOIs were signed in August 2025. The companies to be acquired are based in Germany, Austria and the Czech Republic. The aim is for corresponding purchase agreements to be signed in September 2025. If the contracts are signed as planned, this will have a significant impact on TPG's revenues and earnings. The acquisition of the three companies will result in expected additional annual revenues in the low three-digit million range after closing, with an EBITDA margin of 4 – 6%. The purchase price will be in the double-digit million range. In order to implement and finance the above-mentioned transactions, TPG will be examining the scope for topping up the existing corporate bond 2024 (WKN A383EW/ISIN NO0013256834).

With regard to the planned change of legal form, TPG has announced that a written vote by the creditors of its bond (ISIN: NO0013256834) approving the change of the company's legal form into a partnership limited by shares (SE & Co. KGaA) has been initiated. The voting period runs from August 12 and closes at 4:00 pm on August 26, 2025. The planned change of legal form will be voted on at the Annual General Meeting on August 25, 2025.

4. Responsibility statement

To the best of our knowledge, and in accordance with the applicable reporting principles for fi nancial reporting, the consolidated interim fi nancial statements give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, fi nancial position and profi t or loss of the Group, and the Group interim management report includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and the position of the Group, together with a description of the principal opportunities and risks associated with the expected development of the Group.
