The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the company's financial statements of prior years.
Total sales amounted to EUR 487,543,382, an increase of 5% compared to the first half year of 2023. Sales to automotive customers represented 89% of sales in the first half of 2024.
The increase in sales is mainly driven by applications outside the powertrain. The outperforming product lines were magnetic position sensors, temperature sensors and embedded motor drivers.
Cost of sales consists of materials (raw material and semifinished parts), subcontracting, labor, depreciation and other direct production expenses. They increased from EUR 251,191,328 in the first half year of 2023 to EUR 271,993,481 in the first half year of 2024, mainly due to wafer price increases. Expressed as a percentage of sales, the cost of sales was 56% in the first half year of 2024, compared to 54% in the first half year of 2023.
The gross margin, expressed as a percentage of sales, decreased from 46% in the first half year of 2023 to 44% in the first half year of 2024. This represents a normalization after a positive contribution from inventory effects in the previous year.
Research and development expenses amounted to EUR 53,459,769 in the first half year of 2024, representing 11% of sales, which is in line with the first half year of 2023. The main research and development activities focused on current sensors, magnetic sensors, inductive sensors, pressure sensors, temperature sensors, optical sensors, sensor interfaces, embedded motor drivers, embedded lighting , smart motor drivers and latch & switch.
General, administrative and selling expenses consist mainly of salaries and salary related expenses, office equipment and related expenses, commissions and advertising expenses. The general, administrative and selling expenses decreased by 3% compared to the first half year of 2023, mainly as a result of cost optimization measures.
The net financial result amounted to EUR 4,730,295 loss in the first half of 2024 compared to EUR 2,319,929 loss in the first half of 2023. The (net) interest result changed from a loss of EUR 918,296 in the first half year of 2023 to a loss of EUR 5,059,106 in the first half of 2024 due to an increase in total debt. The net exchange results (both realized and unrealized) in the first half year of 2024 amounted to a gain of EUR 429,873, compared to a loss of EUR 510,734 in the first half year of 2023.
There was a decrease in net income from EUR 102,816,065 in the first half of 2023 to EUR 102,015,433 in the first half of 2024, mainly due to a decrease of the gross margin and the financial result.
Cash and cash deposits amounted to EUR 38,550,929 as of 30 June 2024, in comparison to EUR 39,348,841 as of 31 December 2023.
In the first half year of 2024, operating cash flow before working capital changes amounted to EUR 153,180,616 compared to EUR 152,088,594 in the first half year of 2023. Net operating cash flow including working capital changes amounted to EUR 81,114,724, compared to EUR -68,401,460 in the first half year of 2023. The increase in net operating cash flow was mainly impacted by a significant decrease in operational advance payments to an important supplier.
The cash flow from investing activities was negative for an amount of EUR -26,939,584, mainly as a result of investments in fixed assets (mainly the new building in Kuching and test equipment).
The cash flow from financing activities amounted to EUR -54,969,092, mainly due to the dividend payment, partially compensated by proceeds of long-term debt.
Melexis, as any company, is continuously confronted with a number of market and competition risks or more specific risks related to the company (including but not limited to currency fluctuations, inflation, interest rates, customer concentration, dependence on key personnel, product liability, IP or litigation). More information on risk factors can be found in the annual report 2023.
Melexis believes that the most noteworthy risks that the company is facing for the coming half year would be the volatility in supply and demand, geopolitical tensions (such as the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which has not directly impacted Melexis' operations in Kyiv) and intense competition within the automotive market. Melexis also identified risks related to climate change which can be found in a separate chapter about climate change (note 2.6.5.X).
There are no events after the balance sheet date that have a material impact on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements per 30 June 2024.
The Board of Directors of Melexis certifies, on behalf and for the account of the company, that, to their knowledge,

Melexis is a limited liability company incorporated under Belgian law. The company has been operating since 1988. The company designs, develops, tests and markets advanced integrated semiconductor devices mainly for the automotive industry. The company sells its products to a wide customer base in the automotive industry in Europe, Asia and North America.
The Melexis Group of companies employed, on average (in FTE) 1,885 people at the end of June in 2023 and 1,951 at the end of June in 2024.
The registered office address of the company is located at Rozendaalstraat 12, 8900 Ieper, Belgium. The company is listed on Euronext.
The consolidated statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors subsequent to their meeting held on 19 August 2024 in Tessenderlo.
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB') and as adopted by the European Union. They do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 December 2023. Melexis has not applied early any new IFRS requirements that are not yet effective in 2024.
The accounting policies applied, computation and presentation are consistent with those applied in the annual consolidated financial statements ended 31 December 2023, except as described below.
During the current financial year, the company has adopted all the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) of the IASB, that are relevant to its operations and effective as per 30 June 2024. The Group has not applied new IFRS requirements that are not yet effective as per 30 June 2024.
The following new standard and amendments to standards are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 January 2024 and have been endorsed by the European Union:
1. Amendments to IAS 1 'Presentation of Financial Statements: Classification of Liabilities as current or non-current' (effective 01/01/2024), affect only the presentation of liabilities in the statement of financial position — not the amount or timing of recognition of any asset, liability income or expenses, or the information that entities disclose about those items. They:
◦ Clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current should be based on rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period and align the wording in all affected paragraphs to refer to the "right" to defer settlement by at least twelve months and make explicit that only rights in place "at the end of the reporting period" should affect the classification of a liability;
◦ Clarify that classification is unaffected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability; and make clear that settlement refers to the transfer to the counterparty of cash, equity instruments, other assets or services.
◦ Clarify how conditions with which an entity must comply within 12 months after the reporting period, such as covenants, affect the corresponding liability's classification.
2. Amendments to IAS 7 'Statement of Cash Flows' and IFRS 7 'Financial Instruments: Disclosures': Supplier Finance Arrangements. The amendment describes the characteristics for which reporters will have to provide additional disclosures regarding the impact of supplier finance arrangements on liabilities, cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk.
3. Amendments to IFRS 16 'Leases': Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (effective 1 January 2024). The amendments explain how an entity accounts for a sale and leaseback after the date of the transaction, specifically where some or all the lease payments are variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate. They state that, in subsequently measuring the lease liability, the seller-lessee determines 'lease payments' and 'revised lease payments' in a way that does not result in the seller-lessee recognising any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use it retains. Any gains and losses relating to the full or partial termination of a lease continue to be recognised when they occur as these relate to the right of use terminated and not the right of use retained.
The following Standards and amendments have been issued, but are not mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 January 2024 and have not been endorsed by the European Union:
1. Amendments to IAS 21 'The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability' (effective 1 January 2025). IAS 21 previously did not cover how to determine exchange rates in case there is long-term lack of exchangeability and the spot rate to be applied by the company is not observable. The narrow scope amendments add specific requirements on: Determining when a currency is exchangeable into another and when it is not; determining the exchange rate to apply in case a currency is not exchangeable and additional disclosures to provide when a currency is not exchangeable.
2. Amendments to IFRS 9 and to IFRS 7: the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (effective on 1 January 2026). On 30 May 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 to:
◦ Clarify the date of recognition and derecognition of some financial assets and liabilities, with a new exception for some financial liabilities settled through an electronic cash transfer system;
◦ Clarify and add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) criterion;
◦ Add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows (such as some instruments with features linked to the achievement environment, social and governance (ESG) targets); and
◦ Update the disclosures for equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
3. IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (effective on 1 January 2027). The IASB has issued IFRS 18, the new standard on presentation and disclosure in financial statements, with a focus on updates to the statement of profit or loss. The key new concepts introduced in IFRS 18 relate to:
◦ the structure of the statement of profit or loss;
◦ required disclosures in the financial statements for certain profit or loss performance measures that are reported outside an entity's financial statements (that is, management-defined performance measures); and
◦ enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and notes in general.
IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1; many of the other existing principles in IAS 1 are retained, with limited changes. IFRS 18 will not impact the recognition or measurement of items in the financial statements, but it might change what an entity reports as its 'operating profit or loss'.
IFRS 18 will apply for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 and also applies to comparative information. The changes in presentation and disclosure required by IFRS 18 might require system and process changes.
4. IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures (effective on 1 January 2027). The International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) has issued a new IFRS Accounting Standard for subsidiaries. IFRS 19 'Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures' permits eligible subsidiaries to use IFRS Accounting Standards with reduced disclosures. Applying IFRS 19 will reduce the costs of preparing subsidiaries' financial statements while maintaining the usefulness of the information for users of their financial statements.
The following standard is mandatory since the financial year beginning 1 January 2016 (however not yet subjected to EU endorsement). The European Commission has decided not to launch the endorsement process of this interim standard but to wait for the final standard:
At any time, management aims at providing a fair representation of the financial statements to its stakeholders according to IFRS legislation. In case of
changes in IFRS legislation that materially impact, but are not yet adopted by Melexis, management ensures timely disclosure of the impact on Melexis' financial statements. There is no impact expected.
The Group elected not to adopt early the new Standards, Interpretations and Amendments, which have been issued but are not yet effective as per 30 June 2024.
There have been no changes in the Group structure in the first half of 2024.

|---|---|---|---|
| Outstanding FX hedge contracts, not exceeding 1 year | USD | 60,000,000 | 50,000,000 |
FX hedge contracts are entered into in order to hedge (part of) the outstanding balance sheet exposure in foreign currency (USD).
The fair value of derivatives is based upon mark to market valuations. All derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value derived from level 2 input criteria. For FX swaps, this is calculated using the forward rate of the appropriate currency pair on 30 June.
The following table presents an overview of the fair value of outstanding derivatives, classified as an asset under Current investments, Derivatives:
Fair value in EUR

— | 259,214 |
As of 30 June 2024, there were no outstanding derivatives for which hedge accounting was applied as defined under IFRS 9. As a result, no changes in the fair value of hedging instruments were recognized in a hedging reserve.
The advance payments of the group, as disclosed in note 2.6.5.U, are not accounted for under IFRS 9 as the settlement will be in wafers and not in cash or another financial instrument.
Trade receivables are measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortized cost, less allowance for credit losses. Due to the short-term nature of the current receivables, their carrying amount is considered to be the same as their fair value. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs.

The credit control department reviews on a regular basis the outstanding balances of customers. When there is a significant increase in the credit risk of a customer, an allowance for doubtful accounts is made. The analysis of the increased credit risk is performed according to the credit loss model of IFRS 9. The output of the analysis did not result in material amounts to be accounted for.
Melexis uses an early warning system to detect potential bad debtors. In this system, the most recent available financial information of the customer (with focus on credit ratios) is combined with an analysis of their (future) order and payment behavior. The analysis is done on a weekly basis and thoroughly investigated by the credit control team. No additional impairment or credit losses needed to be taken in the first half year of 2024.
As per 30 June 2024, EUR 15,018 of the trade accounts receivables are related parties, compared to EUR 3.095 per 30 June 2023 (see Note 2.6.5.D).

The most important component of the current tax assets is the overpayment of Belgian taxes of EUR 8 million related to 2024.
Inventory is written off when no sales are expected or when the goods contain defects. As per 30 June 2024, EUR 3,719,576 of additional inventory was written off. EUR 2,894,441 of the inventory written off during the previous year was reversed as the business conditions to write-off these inventory items became redundant or the estimated sales value increased due to a change in business conditions.
Inventories increased from EUR 254,348,153 to EUR 256,846,988 in the first half year of 2024, an increase of 1% compared to December 2023.

The 2023 mismatch between supply and demand related to automotive semiconductors has led market participants to establish new ways of contracting aimed at the long-term relationship between suppliers and their customers. During recent years, in line with developments within the sector, Melexis and its subsidiaries have also concluded various long-term agreements (LTAs) with different suppliers. The most important goal of the LTAs is to secure volumes and more predictable prices.
Given that the LTA with our main supplier X-FAB requires significant capacity expansions on their part, Melexis Technologies agreed, in line with current market practices, to prepay a part of the committed wafers. In February 2024 Melexis prepaid an additional EUR 8.9 million to X-FAB.
No triggering event occurred that would give rise to any indication for impairment of these non-current assets.

In the first half year of 2024, trade accounts payable decreased from EUR 80,030,373 to EUR 62,284,098, a decrease of 22% compared to December 2023 due to a timing effect.
As per 30 June 2024, EUR 90,846 of the trade accounts payables are related parties, compared to EUR 341,529 per 30 June 2023 (see Note 2.6.5.D).
In the first half year of 2024, accrued expenses decreased from EUR 23,680,221 to EUR 15,253,297, a decrease of 36% compared to December 2023, which is mainly due to a lower bonus accrual.
In the first half year of 2024, accrued taxes increased from EUR 2,642,293 to EUR 3,817,164. Accrued taxes mainly consist of income taxes.

| Accrued interests | 2,014,486 | 989,933 |
| Total | 9,048,724 | 12,964,363 |
The decrease in 'Other' mainly relates to an exceptionally high balance in 2023 for the construction of the new building in Malaysia which was finished in the first half of 2024.
The deferred income relates to shipments that were not delivered to the customer before the half-year end. As this performance obligation was not met, revenue was not recognized at half-year end but will be recognized when the shipment will be delivered to the customer. The performance obligation was met shortly after half-year and revenue was recognized in July. A contract liability is recognized in case a payment for a customer is due before a related performance obligation is satisfied.

Melexis set up a warranty provision in accordance with the legal Melexis terms of sales and which is based on a reliable estimate of historical data. The estimation covers Melexis' experience of past claim rates and knowledge of current claims together with an assessment of rectification costs. The estimated period of usage of the underlying expenses is set at 1-2 years.
Melexis' employee benefit plans consist of defined benefit and defined contribution plans providing retirement, disability and surviving dependent's benefits with main contract in Belgium.
In Belgium, Melexis' defined contribution plans, while funded through group insurance contracts, must adhere to Belgian regulations guaranteeing a minimum 1.75% return on contributions. This rate, tied to a risk-free rate of 10-year government bond, places the investment risk until the legal minimum rates applicable, on the employer. This structure classifies the plans as defined benefit plans under IAS19. Under IAS 19, companies must recognize a liability for employee benefits earned but not yet paid, such as pensions. These future obligations are measured on a discounted basis to reflect their present value. A qualified actuary has determined the present value of the defined benefit obligations and the fair value of the plan assets.
The Projected Unit Credit (PUC) method was used to estimate the defined benefit obligations, the defined benefit cost and the re-measurements of the net liability. There are 3 defined benefit plans in Melexis Belgium for which we show below the aggregated view as these do not differ materially from characteristics, regulatory environment, reporting segment or funding arrangement. In accordance with IAS 19 the disclosure is in the form of a weighted average
As per 30 June 2024, the defined benefit obligations for Belgium amounts to EUR 714,158.
The changes in defined benefit obligations and the financial impact are presented in the tables below. Due to the immateriality of the amounts of previous periods, no comparatives are presented.

The principal assumptions used in determining the IAS 19 pension obligation for Melexis were as follows:
| Half year ended 30/06/2024 | |
|---|---|
| Discount rate | 3.60 % |
| Inflation rate | 2.25 % |
| Salary increases | 4.25 % |
| Retirement age | following legal retirement age |
The below table summarizes the sensitivity analysis performed for significant assumptions as per 30 June 2024. The figures show the impact on the defined benefit obligation.
| in EUR | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Half year ended 30/06/2024 | Present value defined benefit obligation |
Change in defined benefit obligation |
impact on defined benefit obligation |
| Discount rate -25 basis points | 9,917,518 | 195,164 | 2.01 % |
| Discount rate +25 basis points | 9,566,154 | (156,200) | (1.61) % |
| Salary increase rate -25 basis points | 9,633,056 | (89,298) | (0.92) % |
| Salary increase rate +25 basis points | 9,824,739 | 102,385 | 1.05 % |
The sensitivity analysis presented above, demonstrate the potential impact on the defined benefit obligation if key assumptions were to change at the end of the reporting period. Each analysis focuses on the effect of a single significant assumption, while holding all others constant. These results may not be representative to fully reflect real-world changes, as it's unlikely that assumptions would shift independently in practice.
The weighted average duration of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period at a discount rate - 25 basis points is 8.25 years and at a discount rate + 25 basis points is 6.72 years.
The impact on the defined benefit obligation for changes in inflation rate is considered to be immaterial.

Melexis consolidated needs to comply with the following financial covenants at all times:
As per 30 June 2024, Melexis is respecting all its financial covenants and expects that this will remain the case in the future. There are no major differences between the fair value and carrying amount of the debt, since the interest payable on those borrowings is close to current market rates.
Melexis products and production processes that are regularly evaluated have only one operating segment: the development and sale of integrated circuits. As a result, regular financial reporting towards the CODM (Chief Operating Decision Maker, at Melexis this is CEO + CFO) is done in one segment and the full R&D resource allocation is done on project level by one corporate team.
The following table summarizes sales by customer for the 10 most important customers, as % of total sales. It consists of the sales to the end customer and not to the subcontractors or distributors.

On 30 June 2024 the Group had purchase commitments for tangible fixed assets amounting to EUR 15,632,151, mainly related to test equipment for production sites and outstanding works for the new building in Kuching. As of 31 December 2023, the amount was EUR 30,442,779.
The 2023 mismatch between supply and demand related to automotive semiconductors has led market participants to establish new ways of contracting aimed at the long-term relationship between suppliers and their customers. In line with these developments within the sector, Melexis and its subsidiaries have also concluded various long-term agreements (LTAs) with different suppliers. The most important goal of the LTAs is to secure volumes and more predictable prices. Given that these X-FAB LTAs require significant capacity expansions at X-FAB, Melexis Technologies agreed, in line with current market practices, to prepay a part of the committed wafers. For Melexis Technologies, the determination and allocation of such prepayments for capacity reservation involves the approval of an operational advance payment to X-FAB for a total amount of around EUR 189.2 million, i.e. 15% of the reserved capacity. The prepayments were scheduled to occur at the end of April 2023, end of September 2023, end of October 2023 and end of February 2024. The settlement of this prepayment will be done through wafer sales. For the impact on the balance sheet, we refer to note 2.6.5.H. There is no impact on the profit and loss accounts.
These advance payments are not accounted for under IFRS 9 as the settlement will be in wafers and not in cash or another financial instrument. Hence the advance payment is accounted for as a non-financial asset and no interest revenue on the prepayment is recognized. The operational advance payment towards X-FAB in the framework of the LTA has no interest component, which is in line with current market practices.
To mitigate the risk of supplier LTAs, Melexis also engaged in LTAs (2023-2025) with its main customers. These contracts do not contain financial components giving rise to material rights.
The company is currently not involved in any litigation.
Melexis operates internationally, which could give an exposure to market risks from changes in interest and foreign exchange rates. Melexis can use derivative financial instruments to manage the foreign exchange risk, interest risk and inflation risk.
Risk management policies have been defined on Group level and are carried out by the local companies of the Group.
Credit risk arises from the possibility that customers may not be able to settle obligations to the company within the normal terms of trade. To manage the risk, the company periodically assesses the financial viability of customers. The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with any single counterparty or group of counterparties having similar characteristics.
On 30 June 2024, the Group does not use derivatives to manage interest rate risks of the outstanding bank debt.
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group is unable to meet its financial obligations upon maturity, due to the inability to convert assets into cash without incurring a loss. To prevent this, the Group keeps a significant cash reserve in combination with multiple unused committed credit lines.
The currency risk of the Group occurs due to the fact that the Group operates and has sales in USD. The Group uses derivative contracts to manage foreign exchange risk. The table with outstanding derivatives per 30 June is taken up in note 2.6.5 B.
The fair value of foreign exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange market rates at the balance sheet date. For all of these instruments, the fair values are confirmed to the Group by the financial institutions through which the Group has entered into these contracts.
The Group's principal financial instruments not carried at fair value are cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other current assets, other non-current assets, trade and other payables, bank overdrafts and long-term borrowings.
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents and of bank overdrafts approximates their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of current investments is calculated by reference to the market value on the stock exchange on which the shares are listed.
The fair value of the long-term loans is based on the current rates available for debt with the same maturity profile and approximates their carrying amounts.
The operational advance payment towards X-FAB in the framework of the LTA (see note 2.6.5.U) has no interest component which is in line with current market practices.
Management believes that the exposure to interest rate risk of financial assets and liabilities as of 30 June 2024 was minimal since their deviation from their respective fair values was not significant.
Earth's systems and processes have been influenced by human activity. Climate change, resource scarcity, environmental pollution – these are just some of the issues that humanity faces. To address this global problem, the Paris Agreement set a goal to limit the increase in global average temperature to below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and to attempt to limit the increase to 1.5°C. Melexis is committed to environmental sustainability, both in our products and in the way they are produced. We strive to minimize our environmental impact by analyzing and reducing our carbon footprint and increasing efficient use of natural resources on all our sites.
On a product level, Melexis contributes to the electrification trend in the automotive industry, which is seen as one of the most important strategies for reducing CO2 emissions. To grow our portfolio of sustainable solutions, in 2023, we announced the establishment of the new "Sustainable World" and "Alternative Mobility" product lines. You can read more about them in 5.2.1 and 5.2.2 of our annual report 2023.
From a process perspective, 2023 was marked by growth of our premises, with a focus on climate-friendly building solutions, the most significant being sustainable energy. This focus on environmental sustainability continues in 2024 with the completion of one major building and the ongoing construction of another.
Beyond energy, we kept on improving the environmental performance of our existing sites, minimizing our waste and water consumption. For more information on our environmental actions and performance data, please refer to chapter 6.7 of our annual report 2023.
We identified two main climate-related risks. The first one is the higher occurrence of natural hazards, such as floods and fires. What makes this risk significant is the fact that Melexis sites are geographically spread across 19 locations from the US to Japan, thus across various climatic zones. The second high-priority risk is increased investments by players in the semiconductor industry to ensure compliance with new regulations to reduce the environmental impact. The production of wafers for instance is energy and water intensive. Moreover, the environmental footprint of transportation of ICs is high, given the global nature of the semiconductor supply chain. Therefore, regulation in view of climate change could put pressure on the industry and lead to substantial increases in the cost of doing business. To address this risk, Melexis measures its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, covering all scopes 1, 2 and 3 in accordance with the GHG Protocol. Based on these measures, we are setting carbon targets and are searching for ways to reduce our footprint.
In 2024, expenses related to climate change were not material. There is no substantial impact of climate change considerations on the financial judgments and estimates made in this annual report.
Furthermore, Melexis is preparing and will publish as of 2025 (over fiscal year 2024) an integrated report in line with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).
Melexis group is within the scope of the OECD Pillar Two model rules (GloBE). Pillar Two legislation was enacted in Belgium, the jurisdiction in which Melexis NV is incorporated, and came into effect from 1 January 2024. Under the new legislation, the group is liable to pay a topup tax for the negative difference between their GloBE effective tax rate per jurisdiction and the 15% minimum rate. An assessment has been made to verify which jurisdictions qualify for the Transitional Safe Harbors set forth by Pillar Two legislation. The assessment does not materially differ from the one that was made at the end of FY23. As such, the top-up taxes relate to the Group's operations in Bulgaria and Switzerland where the statutory tax rate is below 15%. All other jurisdictions qualify for the transitional safe harbors.
The Group has applied a temporary mandatory relief from deferred tax accounting for the impact of the top-up tax and accounts for it as a current tax when it is incurred.

The consolidated interim financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on 19 August 2024 and were signed on its behalf by Marc Biron.

To the Board of Directors MELEXIS NV
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial position of Melexis NV and its subsidiaries as of 30 June 2024 and the related condensed consolidated interim statement of profit and loss, the condensed consolidated interim statement of comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated interim statement of changes in equity and the condensed consolidated interim statement of cash flow for the six-month period then ended, as well as the notes. The board of directors is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IAS 34, as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed consolidated interim financial statements based on our review. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are characterised by a total assets of EUR 891.098.131 and a net profit for the period of EUR 102.015.433.
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 – Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, as adopted by the European Union.
