"2023 turned out to be again a record year. We made another step in our path to profitability by reporting positive EBITDA 1 for the first time. This is a major moment of validation for us and more importantly for our business model. Fastned is now one of the top 3 fast-charging networks in the countries where we are active, in terms of number of fast charging sessions 2 . We are seeing the results of what we envisioned when we founded Fastned 12 years ago and started our mission to accelerate the transition to electric mobility. We are still in the early

days of electric mobility, as the EV fleet is expected to increase by at least five-fold in the next five years." Michiel Langezaal, CEO Fastned

Fastned outgrows the rapidly growing charging market

• Fastned's results are supported by a strong battery electric vehicle (BEV) market momentum in Europe, where 1.5 million new BEVs were registered in 2023 (+37% vs.2022) 3 . The total EV fleet penetration in Europe grew by 34%⁴ .
• Fastned outgrows the charging market: the revenue related to charging was €60.5 million (+68% vs. 2022) and sold 99.6 GWh of renewable energy (+92% vs. 2022).
• Our high traffic location strategy enables us to substantially outperform the competition in terms of sales per station. The volume of renewable energy sold per station reached 368 MWh (+49% vs. 2022).
• In 2023, as expected, Fastned reduced its net loss to €(19.3) million, from €(22.2) million in 2022.
• Fastned is supported in its mission by more investors. In 2023, the company raised a total of €53 million in new bonds to accelerate growth and investors extended €6 million from earlier bond issues.

Continued progress to extend the network

• Fastned's network grew to a total of 297 stations across 8 countries, with 55 new stations, despite challenges such as grid congestion and extreme weather, which slowed the building process.
• The pipeline of secured locations reached 432 sites (+59 sites). 45 of these new locations were signed with private landowners, up from 20 in 2022 and five to ten per year in the years before. The ramp-up in our commercial locations pipeline is the result of investment in our Network Development strategy, initiated two years ago.
• In 2023, Fastned gained access to prime locations in Italy (4) and Spain (7), where construction work is expected to start in 2024.
• On top of these signed locations, Fastned won in Germany two prime lots consisting of 92 so-called "search areas" to build fast charging stations as part of the German government's "Deutschlandnetz" tender. In addition to this, in early 2024, Fastned won another tender in Germany, for 34 locations on service rest areas on highways. All of these new locations will be added to our pipeline in 2024 and 2025.

Continued recognition for the most reliable charging experience

● In 2023, Fastned was awarded Best EV charging network (ZapMap, UK), Most preferred fast charger provider (Autoblog, The Netherlands), Most reliable charging

● We maintain a market-leading station uptime of over 99% by implementing innovative solutions for real-time charger monitoring and by enabling issue anticipation and resolution.

Making progress on our sustainability roadmap

• In line with our mission, our fast charging network tangibly accelerates the transition to electric mobility. Since our first station became operational in 2012, Fastned has avoided a total of 171.7 thousand tonnes of CO² from being released into the atmosphere. In 2023 only, the renewable energy charged at Fastned's stations enabled driving a distance of close to 500 million electric kilometers.
• In late 2023, Fastned was successfully certified for Level 4 of the CO² Performance Ladder. This involved an extensive calculation of our CO² footprint, with a focus on scope 3 emissions, and setting ambitious CO² emissions reduction targets for the years 2025 and 2030.
