      • Group operating margin: 8.1% of revenue (+0.5 points vs. 2023 H1), up €0.1bn vs. 2023 H1
      • Automotiveoperating margin: 6.6% of revenue (+0.4 points vs. 2023 H1)
    • Net income: €1.4bn (including €440m of capital loss on the disposal of Nissan shares)
    • Solid free cash flow: €1.3bn driven by a strong operational performance. It included €600m of Mobilize Financial Services dividend and a negative variation of working capital requirement of €209m
    • Record automotive net cash financial position: €4.9bn at June 30, 2024 (+€1.1bn vs. December 31, 2023)
  • Complementary and growing automotive brands:
    • Renault brand #3in Europe, #1 in France and leader in LCVs2
    • Dacia in the top 10 best-selling brands in Europe, with Sandero best-selling car across all channels
    • Alpine strong double-digit growth before new launches
  • Strong orderbook in Europe at 2.6 months of forward sales, reflecting the strong order intake
  • Very healthy level of total inventories at 500ku at June 30, 2024 (down 69ku yoy)
  • Renault Group confirms its 2024 financial outlook:
    • A Group operating margin ≥7.5%
    • A free cash flow ≥€2.5bn

Group revenue reached €26,958 million, up 0.4% compared to 2023 H1. At constant exchange rates1 , it increased by 3.7%.

Automotive revenue stood at €24,372 million, down 1.9% compared to 2023 H1. It included 3.1 points of negative exchange rates effect (€779 million) mainly related to the devaluation of the Argentinean peso and to a lesser extent of the Turkish lira. At constant exchange rates 1 , it increased by +1.2%. This evolution was mainly explained by the following:

1 In order to analyze the variation in consolidated revenue at constant exchange rates, Renault Group recalculates the revenue for the current period by applying average exchange rates of the previous period

2 Excluding pick-up trucks

  • A price effect of +1.8 points, mostly to offset currency devaluations mainly in Argentina and Turkey. As already announced, Renault Group has entered a phase of price stabilization combined with price repositioning of targeted products enabled by cost reduction.
  • A positive product mix effect of +1.0 point, which reflected a gradual improvement in line with the Group's recent launches (Scenic, Rafale and Espace). It has more than offset the negative effect from the end of life of Zoe and the continuing success of Sandero. This positive effect will continue to improve in the coming quarters.
  • A positive geographic mix of +1.1 points, driven by the Group's activity in Europe.
  • A negative volume effect of -4.7 points. The 1.9% increase in registrations was more than offset by a destocking within the dealership network in 2024 H1 compared to an important restocking in 2023 H1. As of June 30, 2024, total inventories of new vehicles stood at a very healthy level and represented 500,000 vehicles (down 69k units yoy), of which 369,000 at independent dealers and 131,000 at Group level.
  • A stable effect of sales to partners of +0.2 points, due to the decrease of new vehicles sales to partners in a transition year before the launch of new products as anticipated, offset by R&D billings in line with the ramp-up of Group's partnerships.
  • A positive "Other" effect of +1.8 points, thanks to the robust performance of parts and accessories as well as dynamic used cars sales.

The Group posted a record operating margin at 8.1% of revenue versus 7.6% in 2023 H1, up 0.5 points.

Automotive operating margin stood at €1,600 million versus €1,541 million in 2023 H1. It represented 6.6% of Automotive revenue, an improvement of +0.4 points versus 2023 H1. This evolution was mainly explained by the following:

  • A positive impact of foreign exchange of €93 million, mostly attributable to the impact of the Turkish lira devaluation on production costs.
  • A negative volume effect of €329 million, mostly driven by the destocking previously mentioned.
  • In 2024 H1, price/mix/enrichment effect was a positive of €51 million and costs decreased by €262 million thanks to a strong purchasing performance and to a lesser extent to a raw materials tailwind. Together, it represented a positive impact of €313 million.

Renault Group continues to reduce its costs and to pass part of those gains to its customers which allows the Group to boost its competitiveness by offering attractive vehicles in terms of price and content while offsetting regulatory requirements, especially on new models and facelifts. Renault Group's strategy is to work on the combination of these two effects, with the sole objective to improve margins.

  • A positive effect of R&D of €153 million: the increase in gross R&D spendings and the lower capitalization rate (-6.2 pts versus 2023 H1) were more than offset by R&D billings, in line with the ramp-up of the Group's partnerships, and lower amortization of capitalized R&D expenses.
  • A negative impact of SG&A, which increased by €109 million, mainly driven by an increase of marketing costs related to the brands' offensives and to the current performance of motorsport activities.
  • Prior to deconsolidation, Horse was under the IFRS 5 assets held for sale accounting treatment and therefore, amortization of its assets had been suspended. Since Horse was deconsolidated on May 31st, 2024, invoices paid to Horse by Renault Group include the cost of amortization again as well as Horse's mark up. The cumulated effect of these 2 elements represented €55 million for the month of June.

The contribution of Mobilize Financial Services (Sales Financing) to the Group's operating margin reached €593 million, up €75 million vs. 2023 H1, mainly thanks to the continuous strong growth of the customer financing activity as well as -€37 million of non-recurring negative impact of swaps valuation in 2023 H1.

Other operating income and expenses were negative at -€277 million (versus +€56 million in 2023 H1) and included notably +€286 million of capital gain on Horse deconsolidation, -€440 million of capital loss on Nissan shares disposal made in March 2024 and restructuring expenses for -€123 million.

After considering other operating income and expenses, the Group's operating income stood at €1,898 million compared to €2,096 million in 2023 H1.

Net financial income and expenses amounted to -€385 million compared to -€260 million in 2023 H1. This variation is mostly explained by the impact of hyperinflation in Argentina.

The contribution of associated companies amounted to €195 million compared to €566 million in 2023 H1.

Current and deferred taxes represented a charge of -€328 million compared to a charge of -€278 million in 2023 H1. The effective tax rate amounted to 17% at the end of June 2024, up +2 pts versus 2023 H1, due to the first year of implementation of Pillar 2 directive and other deferred tax impacts.

Thus, net incomestood at €1,380 million, including the capital loss on Nissan shares disposal. Net income, Group share, was €1,293 million (or €4.74 per share).

The cash flow of the Automotive business reached €2,972 million in 2024 H1 and included €600 million of Mobilize Financial Services dividend.

Excluding the impact of asset disposals, the Group's net CAPEX and R&D stood at €2,143 million i.e. 7.9% of revenue compared to 6.9% of revenue in 2023 H1. Assets disposals amounted to €28 million, compared to €197 million in 2023 H1. Group's net CAPEX and R&D amounted to 7.8% of revenue including asset disposals.

Free cash flow1 stood at €1,257 million and included a negative change in working capital requirement of -€209 million.

The Automotive net cash financial position stood at the record level of €4,860 million on June 30, 2024, compared to €3,724 million on December 31, 2023, an improvement of €1,136 million. This increase was driven by the strong free cash flow, a positive impact of Horse deconsolidation (+€420 million), cash received from the disposal of Nissan shares (+€358 million), dividends received from Nissan (+€142 million). It was partly offset by dividends paid to shareholders for -€628 million and financial investments for -€355 million, of which -€215 million in Flexis SAS.

Liquidity reserve at the end of June 2024 stood at a high level at €17.6 billion.

  • Renault Group confirms its 2024 financial outlook:

  • All-electric vehicles account for almost 12% of Renault brand sales and will continue to grow with Scenic E-Tech electric and Renault 5 E-Tech electric. Megane E-Tech electric, launched in mid-2022, ranks among the top 3 in its class in Europe.

2024: Numerous market launches for the Renault brand

• With seven new vehicles planned, 2024 is a year rich in commercial launches for Renault. The brand is having a promising first half of the year while waiting for the commercial launches of Symbioz, Master and Renault 5 E Tech electric in Europe.

  • Global sales of Dacia Sandero totalled 164,789 units, up 18.5% on first-half 2023. Best-selling retail vehicle since 2017, Sandero is also the best-selling model in Europe across all customer channels in first-half 2024.
  • With 113,783 units sold worldwide, Dacia Duster (including the second generation and recently launched third generation) sales grew by 1.7% compared with first-half 2023. It maintains its position on the podium of SUV retail sales in Europe.
  • Dacia Jogger recorded 50,841 units sold worldwide, up 0.7% on first-half 2023. It is Europe's best-selling non-SUV C-segment vehicle for retail sales.
  • Sales of Dacia Spring are falling as a result of changes in government support and the vehicle's product cycle. Nevertheless, in first-half 2024, Spring ranked fifth in retail sales of small electric vehicles (A and B segments) in Europe.

Renewal of the range

  • New Dacia Duster, available to order since mid-March 2024, has been in showrooms since June 2024. It was very well received and has already been awarded numerous times in various markets.

Group revenue reached €26,958 million, up 0.4% compared to 2023 H1. At constant exchange rates1 , it increased by 3.7%.

Automotive revenue stood at €24,372 million, down 1.9% compared to 2023 H1. It included 3.1 points of negative exchange rates effect (-€779 million) mainly related to the devaluation of the Argentinean peso and to a lesser extent of the Turkish lira. At constant exchange rates1 , it increased by +1.2%. This evolution was mainly explained by the following:

  • A price effect of +1.8 points, mostly to offset currency devaluations mainly in Argentina and Turkey. As already announced, Renault Group has entered a phase of price stabilization combined with price repositioning of targeted products enabled by cost reduction.
  • A positive product mix effect of +1.0 point, which reflected a gradual improvement in line with the Group's recent launches (Scenic, Rafale and Espace). It has more than offset the negative effect from the end of life of Zoe and the continuing success of Sandero. This positive effect will continue to improve in the coming quarters.
  • A positive geographic mix of +1.1 points, driven by the Group's activity in Europe.
  • A negative volume effect of -4.7 points. The 1.9% increase in registrations was more than offset by a destocking within the dealership network in 2024 H1 compared to an important restocking in 2023 H1.

As of June 30, 2024, total inventories of new vehicles stood at a very healthy level and represented 500,000 vehicles (down 69k units yoy), of which 369,000 at independent dealers and 131,000 at Group level.

  • A stable effect of sales to partners of +0.2 points, due to the decrease of new vehicles sales to partners in a transition year before the launch of new products as anticipated, offset by R&D billings in line with the ramp-up of Group's partnerships.
  • A positive "Other" effect of +1.8 points, thanks to the robust performance of parts and accessories as well as dynamic used cars sales.

14 Financialreport – First half 2024 1 In order to analyze the variation in consolidated revenue at constant exchange rates, Renault Group recalculates the revenue for the current period by applying average exchange rates of the previous period

OPERATING SEGMENT CONTRIBUTION TO GROUP OPERATING PROFIT

(€ million) H1 2024 H1 2023 Change
Automotive 1,600 1,541 +59
% of division revenues 6.6% 6.2% +0.4 pts
Sales financing 593 518 +75
Mobility Services -18 -19 +1
Total 2,175 2,040 +135
% of Group revenues 8.1% 7.6% +0.5 pts

The Group posted a record operating margin at 8.1% of revenue versus 7.6% in 2023 H1, up 0.5 points.

Automotive operating margin stood at €1,600 million versus €1,541 million in 2023 H1. It represented 6.6% of Automotive revenue, an improvement of +0.4 points versus 2023 H1. This evolution was mainly explained by the following:

  • A positive impact of foreign exchange of €93 million, mostly attributable to the impact of the Turkish lira devaluation on production costs.
  • A negative volume effect of €329 million, mostly driven by the destocking previously mentioned.
  • In 2024 H1, price/mix/enrichment effect was a positive of €51 million and costs decreased by €262 million thanks to a strong purchasing performance and to a lesser extent to a raw materials tailwind. Together, it represented a positive impact of €313 million.
  • Renault Group continues to reduce its costs and to pass part of those gains to its customers which allows the Group to boost its competitiveness by offering attractive vehicles in terms of price and content while offsetting regulatory requirements, especially on new models and facelifts. Renault Group's strategy is to work on the combination of these two effects, with the sole objective to improve margins.
  • A positive effect of R&D of €153 million: the increase in gross R&D spendings and the lower capitalization rate (-6.2 pts versus 2023 H1) were more than offset by R&D billings, in line with the ramp-up of the Group's partnerships, and lower amortization of capitalized R&D expenses.
  • A negative impact of SG&A, which increased by €109 million, mainly driven by an increase of marketing costs related to the brands' offensives and to the current performance of motorsport activities.
  • Prior to deconsolidation, Horse was under the IFRS 5 assets held for sale accounting treatment and therefore, amortization of its assets had been suspended. Since Horse was deconsolidated on May 31st, 2024, invoices paid to Horse by Renault Group include the cost of amortization again as well as Horse's mark up. The cumulated effect of these 2 elements represented €55 million for the month of June.

The contribution of Mobilize Financial Services (Sales Financing) to the Group's operating margin reached €593 million, up €75 million vs. 2023 H1, mainly thanks to the continuous strong growth of the customer financing activity as well as -€37 million of non-recurring negative impact of swaps valuation in 2023 H1.

The segment result regularly reviewed by the Leadership Team, identified as the "Chief Operating Decision-Maker", is the operating margin.

2-B. Estimates and judgments

Context forthe first half-year of 2024

Sale of the HORSE powertrain operations and creation with Geely of the new joint venture HORSE Powertrain Limited

32 Financial report - First-half 2024 The announcement at the Capital Market Day held on November 8, 2022, that it would be letting go of some of its Renault Group's condensed consolidated half-year financial statements at June 30, 2024 were examined at the Board of Directors' meeting of July 24, 2024.

powertrain technologies (the HORSE project), and the signature on July 11, 2023 of a joint venture agreement with Geely, saw concrete results on May 31, 2024 following approval from the relevant authorities: the formation of the new joint venture HORSE Powertrain Limited dedicated to petrol, hybrid and lowemission powertrains. HORSE Powertrain Limited will design, develop, manufacture and sell the full ranges of solutions and systems for engines, powertrains, hybrid systems and batteries, all equipped with the latest cutting-edge technologies.

HORSE Powertrain Ltd has a capital of €7 billion and is owned in equal shares by Renault Group (via Renault sas) and Geely (via the entities Zhejiang Geely Holding Group Co., Ltd and Geely Automobile Holdings Ltd). It was formed by combining the operational Renault Group entities HORSE Powertrain Solutions S.L.U. and its subsidiaries, and Geely entities Aurobay Holding (SG) Ptd. Ltd., Aurobay International Pte. Ltd. and their subsidiaries. HORSE Powertrain Ltd is accounted for under the equity method in the Group's consolidated financial statements from May 31, 2024.

The groups of assets and liabilities held for sale and reclassified as such in the consolidated statements of financial position at December 31, 2022 and 2023 in accordance with IFRS 5 were deconsolidated at May 31, 2024 (Note 3).

On June 28, 2024, an agreement was also finalised for the acquisition by Aramco of a 10% investment in HORSE Powertrain Ltd, 5% each from Renault Group and Geely. The shares have been reclassified as assets held for sale and are carried at their estimated sale price at June 30, 2024.

New foundations for the partnership with Nissan

Under the New Alliance Agreement between Renault Group and Nissan on November 8, 2023, Renault transferred 28.4% of Nissan shares (from its total 43.4% stake) into a French trust, in which the voting rights are exercised neutrally, subject to certain exceptions. The voting rights of Renault Group and Nissan are capped at 15% of the exercisable voting rights, and both companies are able to freely exercise their voting rights within that limit.

In December 2023, Renault SA undertook a first sale to Nissan of 211 million Nissan shares at the price of €3.62 per share or a total of €764 million, which generated a loss of €880 million recorded in Other operating income and expenses. On March 28, 2024, Renault SA instructed the trust to sell Nissan 99 million of its own shares at the price of €3.62 per share or a total of €358 million, which generated a loss of €440 million recorded in Other operating income and expenses (Note 6). As Nissan has cancelled these shares (calculated on a total number of shares after deduction of Nissan treasury shares), Renault's percentage interest in Nissan at June 30, 2024 is 39.1%.

In February 2024, following the announcement in early 2023 of the new foundations of the Renault-Nissan partnership (including operational projects, an investment by Nissan in Ampere, the pure player in electric vehicles and software set up by Renault Group, and the rebalancing of their crossshareholdings at 15% each), Renault Group and Nissan rebalanced their investments in India in the two entities Renault Nissan Technology & Business Center India Private Ltd (RNTBCI) and Renault Nissan Automotive India Private Ltd (RNAIPL). Renault Group now owns 51% of RNTBCI and 49% of RNAIPL (while Nissan owns 49% and 51% respectively), compared to its previous shareholdings of 67% and 30%. The consolidation method used for these entities is unaffected (Note 3). The disposal of the shares in RNTBCI generated proceeds of €54 million, recorded in Other operating income and expenses. The acquisition of the shares in RNAIPL involved a cash outflow of €150 million. Concurrently, Renault Group sold a technological vehicle licence to RNAIPL for the price of €80 million.

Employee shareholding

Since the Renaulution Shareplan was launched in 2022, Renault Group has taken steps each year to engage all employees in its strategy and future performances. The 2024 employee shareholding operation will attribute up to 14 free shares to eligible employees in France and internationally (7 attributed as standard, with the potential to receive a further 7 subject to conditions). It will also offer employees the opportunity to buy shares at a 30% discount on the reference price. The cost of this plan recognized at June 30, 2024 is limited to the prorated cost of the 7 free shares, and thus totals €11 million. The other components of the cost will be recognized during the second half-year of 2024.

Worldwide economic context

The Automotive industry has undergoing major change for several years while the markets have been shrinking: volumes sold decreased from 3,749,736 vehicles in 2019 to 2,235,345 vehicles in 2023 (mainly because of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, short supplies of electronic components in 2021, the end of business in the Russian Federation in 2022, and significant rises in commodity prices in 2022 and logistics costs in 2023).

Also, through its strategic plan Renaulution, the Group has chosen to pursue a value-based business policy, concentrating on sales to retail customers (62% of sales in main European countries), the C-segment and above, top-of-the-range versions which account for the great majority of the most recent new model launches, and electrified vehicles. This approach is achieving positive growth in sales volumes in 2024: the Group sold a total 1,154,700 vehicles during the first halfyear, an increase of 1.9% compared to the first half of 2023, although not yet back at pre-2020 levels.

Sustainable development and climate considerations

Sustainable development considerations are a key component of Renault Group's strategy. Through the Paris Agreements and the European Green Deal, the Group has made concrete commitments toreduce emissionsand reach carbon neutrality.

The Renaulution strategic plan unveiled by Renault Group in January 2021 plots out an ambitious roadmap for transformation and a shift from volume to value. November 2022 saw the start of the third chapter of this plan, called Revolution. Ampere, a pure player in electric vehicles set up in November 2023, is a major contribution to achieving Renault Group's net-zero ambition (achieved when the volume of emissions is balanced by equivalent capture) for Europe by 2040 and worldwide by 2050. In Korea, Renault Korea Motors (RKM) will launch its own hybrid vehicle range in the second halfyear of 2024, to be followed by the 100%-electric Polestar 4 in 2025. The Future is Neutral, Renault's dedicated entity for the circular economy, is taking shape in the Group through the creation of the holding company Circular Economy Business in the first half-year of 2024 (Note 3) and the transfer of Renault sas's remanufacturing business assets to the new entity named The Remakers.

In March and April 2024, Renault Group, Volvo Group and CMA CGM formed the joint venture Flexis sas to meet the growing need for carbon-free logistics with a new generation of fullyelectric vans. The respective shareholdings are 45%, 45% and 10%, plus commitments by Renault Group and Volvo Group to invest €300 million each and by CMA-CGM to invest up to €120 million in Flexis sas by 2026 (Note 3).

Against this background of change, the Group's medium-term plan for the period 2024-2032, containing forecasts that form the basis for impairment testing of assets (Note 10), is regularly updated to take account of regulatory changes in the countries where the Group does business. The necessary investments for product and plant compliance are carefully determined and included in the plan. The principal sensitivity of the 2024-2032 medium-term plan concerns the transition risks of the Paris Agreements' baseline scenario.

For impairment testing of vehicle-specific assets, the Group's forecasts take account of profits generated by electric vehicles under the European Union's CAFE (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) regulation, which fines automakers if they exceed the average threshold for CO2 emissions, and the negative contributions of combustion-fuel vehicles. The estimates are based on internal prices for each year a CAFE penalty is payable.

The Group assesses the depreciation periods for fixed assets at the end of each accounting period, taking into consideration regulatory changes such as phasing out of new petrol and diesel vehicles in Europe from 2035.

The physical risks associated with climate change, mainly floods, extreme heat or water stress, are measured, are the subject of preventive action plans and necessary investments plans to reduce the risk of impacts.

The Group is also securing its procurement along the electric vehicle value chain through long-term contracts for purchase volumes of raw materials, which are included in its off-balance sheet commitments (Note 21-A). These commitments are valued at year-end spot prices, and minimum payments are defined by reference to the exit clauses contained in the contracts.

The Group contractualizes green energy purchases that sometimes require investments at its production sites. The contract terms are analyzed to define which party has control of the assets. Some of these contracts are treated as leases, with recognition of a right-of-use asset. For the rest, the amounts for which the Group has given firm commitments are reported in off-balance sheet commitments (Note 21-A).

European and foreign regulations have penalty and/or bonus mechanisms based on the CO2 emissions of vehicles sold. Emission levels have to be estimated at the end of each accounting period, but the final figures may be calculated over several years under carry-back/carry-forward systems (as in South Korea, India and the United Kingdom) or only confirmed one or two years later (as in the European system). The Group has set up a Committee to identify the relevant CO2 emissions and estimate the corresponding income and expenses, and estimates are reviewed quarterly.

Other estimates and judgments

Renault Group often has to make estimates and assumptions that affect the book value of certain assets and liabilities, income and expenses, and disclosures made in certain notes to the financial statements. In preparing its financial statements, the Group regularly revises its estimates and assessments to take account of past experience and other factors deemed relevant in view of the economic circumstances.

The following items in the Group's consolidated financial statements that are dependent on estimates and judgements have also been paid particular attention in the first half-year of 2024:

• capitalization of research and development expenses and their amortization period (Notes 5 and 10-A),

  • potential impairment of fixed assets, particularly specific assets linked to vehicles (Note 10) and investments accounted for under the equity method;
  • provisions, particularly warranty provisions on vehicles and batteries sold (Note 17-B), provisions for pensions and other long-term employee benefit obligations (Note 17-A), provisions for workforce adjustment measures (Note 6-A), provisions for legal risks and tax risks other than income tax risks and provisions for uncertain tax liabilities,
  • the recoverable value of leased vehicles classified as property, plant and equipment or inventories;
    • impairment for expected credit losses concerning Sales Financing receivables (Note 13).

3-A. Changes in the scope of consolidation

Automotive

In March 2024, Renault and Nissan rebalanced their investments in the Indian entities Renault Nissan Technology & Business Center India Private Ltd (RNTBCI) and Renault Nissan Automative India Private Ltd (RNAIPL). Renault Group now owns 51% of RNTBCI and 49% of RNAIPL (while Nissan owns 49% and 51% respectively), compared to its previous shareholdings of 67% and 30%. The consolidation method is unchanged: RNTBCI is still classified as a joint operation and consolidated line by line, and RNAIPL as a joint venture and accounted for under the equity method. This rebalancing operation entailed a sale of shares in RNTBCI for the price of €70 million, generating a gain of €54 million, and an acquisition of shares in RNAIPL at the price of €150 million. Concurrently, Renault Group sold a technological vehicle licence to RNAIPL for the price of €80 million.

On March 28, 2024, Renault SA sold approximately 99 million Nissan shares for the price of €358 million (calculated on a total number of shares after deduction of Nissan treasury shares), reducing its percentage interest in Nissan from 40.6% to 39.1% (Note 12). The €(440) million loss on this operation is presented in Note 6.B.

In March 2024, Renault sas was one of the founders of Flexis sas, a joint venture in which it has a 45% interest, contributing €215 million to a capital increase. Volvo Group, with an interest of 45%, and CMA CGM Group, with an interest of 10%, respectively contributed €215 million and €48 million. Flexis sas, which is based in France, will meet the growing need for carbon-free urban logistics by developing a new generation of electric vans. The new company is accounted for under the equity method.

At May 1, 2024, Renault sas contributed its remanufacturing activities as an autonomous branch of business to the newlyformed company The Remakers sas. The shares of The Remakers sas were then transferred by Renault sas to The Future is Neutral sas. Finally, Renault sas contributed the shares of The Future is Neutral sas to Circular Economy Business sas, a new company. As all these entities are controlled by the Group, these operations have no impact on the Group's consolidated net income.

In 2024 Verkor sas, an equity-accounted company carried out fundraising activities. The Group's investment in the company decreased from 19.1% to 16.7% at June 30, 2024. A dilution gain of €11 million was recognized.

In May 2024, the Group became a shareholder of Groupe Signature, a longstanding partner of the Alpine Endurance team, acquiring a 49% interest via its subsidiary Alpine Racing sas. The Group exercises joint control over Groupe Signature, which is accounted for under the equity method.

On May 31, 2024, following the agreements signed on July 11, 2023 and approval by the relevant authorities, Renault Group and

HORSE Powertrain Ltd designs, develops, manufactures and sells solutions and systems for engines, powertrains, hybrid systems and batteries. Renault Group owns 50% of this joint venture which it controls jointly, and consequently it is accounted for under the equity method. The value of the shares acquired by Renault in HORSE Powertrain Ltd is €3,500 million and the gain on the sale of the assets and liabilities of HORSE Powertrain Solutions S.L.Uand its subsidiaries amounts to €286million (Note 6.B).

On May 31, 2024, the Group announced the disposal of these assets via transfer of the shares of HORSE Powertrain Solutions S.L.U.to the new joint venture HORSE Powertrain Ltd (Note 3-A).

Also, on June 28, 2024, the Group announced the project of sale of 5% of the capital of HORSE Powertrain Ltd to Aramco (Note 2). As this sale is to be completed within the next 12 months, the portion of shares concerned has been reclassified to Assets held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5.

Research and development expenses are reported net of research tax credits for the vehicle development activity.

The increase in research and development expenses in 2024 in Europe is mainly explained by renewal of the lineup in Europe (including R5, 4L and Scenic), internationally (including Kardian and New Grand Koleos) and investments in Software Defined Vehicle technology.

Amortization of capitalized development expenses decreased compared to the first half-year of 2023 and is lower than the amount of capitalized expenses in the first half-year of 2024, notably due to the cessation of amortization of development costs related to the HORSE mechanical activities classified as Assets held for sale (€47 million).

Note 8 - Current and deferred taxes

As Renault SA elected to determine French income taxes under the domestic tax consolidation regime when it was formed, this is the regime applicable to the Group in which Renault SA is taxed in France.

Renault Group also applies other optional tax consolidation systems in Germany, Spain, Romania, the Netherlands and the UK.

Current income taxes (363) (391) (844)
Deferred tax income (charge) 35 113 321
CURRENT AND DEFERRED TAXES (328) (278) (523)

This charge is relatively stable in 2024 in connection with the evolution of the Group's economic activity.

The effective tax rate reaches 17% at June 30, 2024. It is relatively stable compared to effective tax rates at December 31, 2023 (18%) and at June 30, 2023 (15%) (based on a pre-tax income excluding income from associates and joint ventures (Notes 11 and 12) and income from the disposal of Nissan shares (Note 3)).

Changes in redeemable shares of the Automotive segment

The redeemable shares issued in October 1983 and April 1984 by Renault SA are subordinated perpetual shares listed on the Paris Stock Exchange. They earn a minimum annual return of 9% comprising a 6.75% fixed portion and a variable portion that depends on consolidated revenues and is calculated based on identical Group structure and methods.

Redeemable shares are stated at amortized cost, calculated by discounting the forecast interest coupons at the effective interest rate of the borrowing.

These shares are traded for €330.00 at June 30, 2024 (€293.00at December 31, 2023). The financial liability based on the stock market value of the redeemable shares at June 30, 2024 is €263 million (€234 million at December 31, 2023).

Changes in bonds and other debts of the Automotive segment

During the first half-year of 2024, bonds repayments amounted to €700 million.

Changes in Sales Financing debts

The Sales Financing sector issued the equivalent of €3 billion on the bond market in the first half of 2024. It has presented itself three times on the euro market and has respectively issued €600 million for 5 years and €1.5 billion in a double tranche format for 3.5 years (€800 million) and 7 years (€700 million). It also issued a new Tier 2 subordinated loan for €750 million. This loan was settled on July, 9 2024 and is not included in the financial liabilities in June, 30 2024. In parallel, to ensure the diversification of financing sources for the Sales Financing sector, an issue of 650 million PLN for 3 years (€150 million) was carried out by the Polish subsidiary.

The Sales Financing segment had access to the TLTRO III program set up by the European Central Bank (ECB). Two drawings were made during 2021, for a total of €1,500 million, maturing in 2024 in the second half-year of 2024.

The interest rate applicable to TLTRO drawings is calculated based on the average deposit facility rate (DFR – Deposit Facility Rate) of the European Central Bank (ECB).

The savings business grew by €1,193 million during the half-year, with a particular increase in term deposits which rose by €1,558 million whereas sight deposits decreased by €365 million, reflecting savers' expectations of interest rate decreases. 88.9% of these deposits are covered by a deposit guarantee scheme at 30 June 2024, compared to 89.2% at December 31, 2023.

To hedge certain floating-rate liabilities, the Sales Financing segment set up interest rate derivatives that do not qualify as hedging derivatives under IFRS 9. The operating income was negatively affected by a €(10) million decrease in the value of these swaps.

Changes in financial liabilities of the Mobility Services segment

The financial liabilities of the Mobility Services segment consist of internal Group financing issued by Renault SA in the form of interest-bearing loans.

Automotive segment financing by assignment of receivables

Some of the Automotive segment's external financing comes from assignment of commercial receivables to non-Group financial establishments and intragroup assignments to the Sales Financing segment. The Sales Financing segment also contributes to the financing of inventories sold by the Automotive segment to the independent dealer network.

All receivables assigned by the Automotive segment are derecognized.

Details of financing by assignment of commercial receivables and financing of the dealer network by the Sales Financing segment are as follows:

(3) Financial guarantees given by the Sales Financing segment will give rise to cash outflows amounting to €247 million during the 5 years following the year-end.(4)Other financial guarantees given mainly concern administrations.

  • (5) Commitments related to supply contracts include minimum payment obligations to suppliers when the Group has made a firm commitment for collection and payment.
  • (6) These commitments include green electricity supply contracts taken by the Group in the context of the decarbonization plan.
  • (7) Lease commitments comprise commitments relating to leases signed but not yet effective at the year-end which cannot be included in the statement of financial position as assets in progress, leases that are outside the scope of IFRS 16 and leases exempt from the accounting treatment prescribed by IFRS 16 (Note 2).
  • (8) Other commitments include commitments made in contracts signed as part of the partnership to design and produce the digital architecture for the Software Defined Vehicle, commitments concerning acceleration of the Group's digitization, and share subscription commitments.

Multi-year supply commitments will give rise to cash outflows over a period of 11 years starting from the 2024 year-end. The maximum payable within one year is €388 million at June 30, 2024 (€244 million within one year at December 31, 2023).

21-A2. Contingent liabilities

Group companies are periodically subject to tax inspections in the countries in which they operate. Accepted tax adjustments are recorded as provisions in the financial statements. Contested tax adjustments are recognized on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the risk that the proceedings or appeals undertaken may be unsuccessful. Tax liabilities are recognized via provisions when there are uncertainties over the determination of taxes.

On December 19, 2019 Renault sas received notification, interrupting the limitation period, of a tax reassessment on transfer prices in 2016, and an additional notification was received on June 24, 2021 concerning the years 2017 and 2018. On December 21, 2022, the French tax authorities issued a proposed reassessment for the year 2019 relating to a further inspection covering the period 2019-2020, also interrupting the relevant limitation period covering the period 2019-2020. In July 2023, the French tax authorities addressed a proposed reassessment for the year 2020 relating to a further inspection covering the period 2019-2020. Renault Group is challenging the most significant amounts of these notifications, and no provision has been recognized in the financial statements at June 30, 2024 in connection with this matter (or at December 31, 2023).

RESA (Renault EspañaSA) was notified in late 2020 of a €213 million tax reassessment for transfer prices concerning the years 2013 to 2016, and an €84 million tax reassessment for transfer prices in June 2023 concerning the years 2017 and 2019. No provision has been recognized in connection to these notifications, since Renault Group considers that it has good chances of winning its case. An amicable settlement procedure between France and Spain was begun in 2021. A deposit of €297 million was paid to the Spanish tax authorities and recognized in non-current financial assets.

Disposals of subsidiaries or businesses by the Group generally include representations and warranties in the buyer's favour. At June 30, 2024, the Group has not identified any significant risk in connection with these operations.

Irrevocable commitments at June 30, 2024 were essentially made to secure raw material and battery supplies for electric vehicles.

Group companies are periodically subject to investigations by the authorities in the countries in which they operate. When the resulting financial consequences are accepted, they are recognized in the financial statements via provisions. When they are contested, they are recognized on a case-by-case basis, based on estimates that take into account the risk that the proceedings or appeals undertaken may be unsuccessful.

The main investigations by the competition and automotive regulations authorities in progress atJune 30, 2024 concern illegal agreements and the level of vehicle emissions in Europe.

In the ongoing "emissions" affair in France, in which a formal legal investigation was opened on January 12, 2017 at the request of the Paris public prosecution office, Renault sas was officially placed under investigation for deceit on June 8, 2021.

In July 2021 Renault Group paid bail of €20 million (included in the balance sheet) to guarantee its representation throughout the proceedings and to cover payment of any damages and fines. It also issued a €60 million bank guarantee on October 8, 2021 to cover compensation for any prejudice identified. Renault Group denies having committed any offence. All Renault Group vehicles are, and always have been, type-approved in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. The potential consequences of the next steps in these ongoing proceedings cannot be reliably estimated at this stage, and no provision was recognized in connection with this matter at June 30, 2024 (or at December 31, 2023 and 2022).

The Group's sales are subject to CO2 emission regulations, principally in the European Union, the United Kingdom, South Korea, Brazil and India.

In 2020, 2021 and 2022, the three members of the Alliance -Renault, Nissan and Mitsubishi Motors corp. – signed agreements to pool their CAFE (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) targets for the European Union. The potential noncompliance penalties payable to the authorities concerned are determined at the level of the group formed by the Alliance's three automakers. Renault did not recognize any provision in connection with the EU CAFE regulation at June 30, 2024 (or at December 31,2023).

A provision of €2 million was recognized for CAFE penalties payable for 2024 in South Korea (€4 million in 2023), raising the total provision for the years 2019 to 2024 to €47 million.

Group companies are also subject to the applicable regulations regarding pollution, notably of soil and ground water. These regulations vary depending on the country of location. Some of the associated environmental liabilities are potential and will only be recognized in the accounts if the activity is discontinued or the site closed. It is also difficult to determine the amount of the obligation reliably. Provisions are only established for liabilities that correspond to a legal or constructive obligation at the closing date, and can be estimated with reasonable reliability.

The Group establishes provisions for the recycling of its products based on regulatory requirements, once the practical organization of recycling operations is defined. In France, the "AGEC" law adopted on February 10, 2020 to fight waste and promote a circular economy extends industrial operators' legal responsibility for management of their waste. Renault Group has received accreditation to operate an individual system for management of end-of-life vehicles (ELVs) to meet all its recycling obligations for its branded vehicles on the road in France. No provision has been booked to cover the cost of collecting these vehicles in mainland France. For overseas French territories, where this recycling must be funded due to local specificities (for example, there is a lack of infrastructures and end-of-life vehicles may be incomplete), a provision of €21 million has been booked in respect of this obligation. For other areas, a study is in progress to determine whether local obligations are onerous.

On 15 March 2022, the European Commission conducted inspections at the premises of companies and associations active in the automotive sector located in several EU Member States. In parallel, the European Commission has sent out formal requests for information to several companies active in the automotive sector. The investigation concerns possible anticompetitive collusion in relation to the collection, treatment and recovery of end-of-life (ELV) cars and vans, relating in particular to (i) the compensation of ELV collection, treatment, and recovery companies, and (ii) the use of data relating to the recyclability or recoverability of ELVs in advertising materials.

Renault was one of the companies visited on 15 March 2022. In parallel, Renault has received a request for information from the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), which is investigating similar conduct. Renault has replied to the European Commission's and the CMA's requests for information.

The possible consequences of the ongoing investigation cannot be reliably estimated at this stage and no provision in connection with this matter has been recorded atJune 30, 2024.

In the United Kingdom, the Financial Conduct Authority banned certain commissioning models for automotive financing in 2021, which had encouraged intermediaries to increase costs for consumers. Several customer complaints were filed regarding commission charged agreements put in place before this ban. On 11 January 2024, the Financial Conduct Authority announced that it would review the automotive financing sales and commissions agreements of several financial institutions. It also announced that it would ensure that consumers receive appropriate compensation if it finds evidence of widespread misconduct. The financial consequences of these procedures cannot be reliably estimated at this stage and no provision has been recorded as of June 30, 2024.

21-A3. Share purchase commitments given

When the Group grants put options to minority shareholders to sell their investments in fully consolidated companies, a liability corresponding to the option is recognized, with a reduction in shareholders' equity – non-controlling interests' share.

Put options granted by the Group to minority shareholders concern Banco RCI Brasil S.A, Rombo Compania Financiera, RCI Colombia S.A and RCI Financial Services s.r.o. The consequences for the financial statements are explained in Note 18-H of 2023 consolidated financial statements.

Partnership agreements were signed in 2018 with Oyak in Turkey, including perfectly symmetrical put and call options for noncontrolling investments, entitling Renault sas, subject to certain conditions, to purchase Oyak's shares in Oyak Renault (call) and to sell its shares in MAIS (put), and entitling Oyak to sell its shares in Oyak Renault (put) and purchase Renault sas's shares in MAIS (call). The exercise price for the put option, if exercised, will be determined by three independent experts who would be appointed at the exercise date. Analysis of the contracts did not identify any circumstances beyond the control of Renault Group that could lead to Oyak exercising its put option without Renault Group being able to object. Consequently, no liability is recognized at June 30, 2024 in connection with these options (or at December 31,2023).

21-A4. Assets pledged as guarantees for management of the liquidity reserve

For management of its liquidity reserve, the Sales Financing segment has access to the monetary policy operations of the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Bank of England (BOE).To benefit from European Central Bank monetary policy operations, the segment has provided guarantees to the Banque de France (under France's central collateral management system 3G - Gestion Globale des Garanties) in the form of assets with book value of €7,441 million at June, 2024 (€8,252 million at December 31, 2023). These assets comprise €6,590 million of shares in securitization vehicles and €851 million of sales financing receivables (€7,072 million of shares in securitization vehicles and €1,180 million of sales financing receivables at December 31, 2023). The financing provided by the Banque de France against these guarantees amounts to €2,600 million at June, 2024 (€1,850 million at December 31, 2023). To benefit from Bank of England monetary policy operations, the Sales Financing segment has provided guarantees to the Bank of England's (Term Funding Scheme for SMEs) in the form of assets with book value of £819 million (€968 million) consisting of a self-subscribed securitization program and a bond. The financing received from the Bank of England against these guarantees amounts to €484 million at June 30, 2024. All assets provided as guarantees to the Banque de France and the Bank of England remain in the balance sheet.

Commitments received – share purchase options

The agreement for the sale by Renault Group of its investments in Renault Russia and the AVTOVAZ Group, which took place on May 15, 2022, gives Renault Group an option to buy back its investment in Lada Auto holding (the parent company of AVTOVAZ), exercisable during three 90-day periods starting on May 15, 2024, 2026 and 2028. The exercise price of this option is one rouble, plus a commitment by Renault Group to make a cash contribution to AVTOVAZ over 4 years, of an amount to be determined at Renault Group's discretion by reference to the sum of non-refundable subsidies received from the Russian State, cash contributions to assets and/or the share capital of AVTOVAZ, and the accumulated profits of the AVTOVAZ Group calculated under IFRS between the date of Renault's sale of its investment in AVTOVAZ and the date at which the repurchase option is exercised.

The amount of this contribution will determine the ownership interest acquired by Renault Group (between 51% and 67.69%). A €400 million contribution will automatically give the Group a 51% investment.

The derivative corresponding to this option has nil value at June 30, 2024 (as at December 31, 2023).

The Group holds options allowing it to subscribe to future capital increases by Verkor, without taking control of the company.

As the Group does not intend to exercise these options, no liability is recorded in respect of these commitments.

Statutory Auditors' Review Report on the Half-yearly Financial Information 2024

(Forthe six-month period ended June 30, 2024)

This is a free translation into English of the statutory auditors' review report on the half yearly financial information issued in French and is provided solely for the convenience of English-speaking users. This report includes information relating to the specific verification of information given in the Group's half-yearly management report. This report should be read in conjunction with, and construed in accordance with, French law and professional standards applicable in France.

To the Shareholders,

In compliance with the assignment entrusted to us by your general meeting and in accordance with the requirements of article L. 451- 1-2 III ofthe French Monetary and Financial Code ("Code monétaire etfinancier"), we hereby reportto you on:

  • the review oftheaccompanyingcondensedhalf-yearly consolidatedfinancial statementsofRenault S.A.,fortheperiodfrom January 1stto June 30th, 2024,
    • the verification ofthe information presented in the half-yearly managementreport.

These condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements are the responsibility ofthe Board of Directors. Ourrole is to express a conclusion on these financial statements based on ourreview.

I. Conclusion on the financial statements

We conducted ourreview inaccordance with professional standards applicable in France.

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 professional standards applicable in France 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 half-yearly consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 standard of the IFRSs as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial information.

II. Specific verification

We have also verified the information presented in the half-yearly management report on the condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements subjectto ourreview.

We have no matters to report as to its fair presentation and consistency with the condensed half yearly consolidated financial statements.
