To the extent that statements in this presentation do not relate to historical or current facts, they constitute forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "seeks," "believes," "estimates," "expects" and similar references to future periods. All forward-looking statements reflect the current knowledge of HENSOLDT AG (the "Company", and together with its subsidiaries, the "Group") and its expectations and projections about future events at the time of publication of this presentation and there can be no assurance that these estimates, expectations and assumptions are or will prove to be accurate. By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results, performance or financial position to differ materially from any future results, performance or financial position expressed or implied in this presentation. Many of these risks and uncertainties relate to factors that are beyond the Group's ability to control or estimate precisely.

The risks and uncertainties which these forward-looking statements may be subject to include (without limitation) future market developments and the impact of global and European social, political and economic events and developments, including the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as defense and security spending by governments, legal restrictions and controls applicable to sales of the Group's products, including government approval requirements and moratoriums, international conflicts and political developments affecting the Group, including by way of new export restrictions, trade barriers, or political support for competitors, the Group's inclusion and participation in major defense projects and platforms and the Group's competitive situation. Readers are cautioned not to place reliance on these forward-looking statements. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update, review or revise any forward-looking statements or to conform them to events or circumstances after the date of this presentation.

This presentation is intended for information only and should not be treated as investment advice or recommendation. It is not, and nothing in it should be construed as an offer for sale, or as a solicitation of an offer to purchase or subscribe to, any securities in any jurisdiction. Neither this presentation nor anything contained therein shall form the basis of, or be relied upon in connection with, any commitment or contract whatsoever. This presentation may not, at any time, be reproduced, distributed or published (in whole or in part) without prior written consent of the Company.

Not all figures included in this presentation have been audited and certain figures may also deviate substantially from information in the Company's consolidated financial statements, thus, may not be fully comparable to such financial statements. In particular, this presentation includes certain supplemental measures of operating and financial performance that are not calculated in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union ("IFRS") or any other generally accepted accounting principles, and are therefore considered non-IFRS measures. The Group believes that such non-IFRS measures, when considered in conjunction with (but not in lieu of) other measures that are computed in accordance with IFRS, may enhance the understanding of its financial performance by excluding certain items that are not classified as part of its ongoing operations. However, these measures have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to financial measures presented in accordance with IFRS. In addition, other companies that disclose similarly titled measures to the Group's non-IFRS measures may calculate them differently.

All amounts are stated in million euros (€ million) unless otherwise indicated. Amounts are commercially rounded and rounding differences may occur.
