SUMMARY REPORT OF THE THIRD QUARTER 2025 AND EXPECTED BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS

{25}------------------------------------------------

S ummary report of the third quarter 2025 and expected business developments

The Group's consolidated turnover in the first nine months of the year reached €1,819.8 million, an increase of 9.0% compared to €1,669.6 million recorded on 30 September 2024.

The indicators for the period are positive. Consolidated EBITDA was €335.5 million, equal to 18.4% of the consolidated revenues. As of September 2024, EBITDA was €275.5 million.

EBIT, from January to September, reached €281.0 million, equal to 15.4% of the consolidated revenues. The corresponding 2024 figure was €224.2 million.

Pre-tax profit, from January to September 2025, was €286.1 million, equal to 14.7% of the revenues. As of September 2024, pre -tax profit stood at €216.0 million.

For the third quarter of the year, the Group's performance is positive, with consolidated turnover for the period of €598.5 million compared to €553.8 million of the third quarter 2024.

EBITDA, from July to September 2025, was equal to €111.8, million, with an EBIT of €92.7 million and pre -tax profit of €88.7 million.

As at 30 September 2025 the Group's net financial position was positive at €423.1 million. The net financial position as at 30 June 2025 was positive for €362.5 million.

In the first nine months of 2025 the group has been able to grow across all market segments where it operates, thanks to a distinctive ability to adapt to the increasingly pervasive evolution of artificial intelligence.

Agentic architectures are opening a new frontier for digital enterprises representing the natural evolution of today's artificial intelligence models. It's no longer talking only about algorithms that analyse data or generate outputs, but about systems with capabilities of interaction, collaboration, and decisions making, integrating dynamically and in a distributed way within business processes.

Today, many companies are already experimenting with agentic solutions, but only few have truly managed to scale them. It is a complex transition that requires not only technology, but also a new architectural mindset: bringing data closer to agents, enabl ing intelligent orchestration, and above all, ensuring the highest levels of security and integrity in autonomous systems. This is the turning point between experimentation and transformation.

For this reason, in the coming months, Reply will continue to invest in building truly agentic AI ecosystems: distributed architectures capable of learning from contexts, adapting in real time, and cooperating safely. The goal is to help companies bring to life organizations where artificial intelligence is not just a support, but a native component of the decision -making and operational process. This marks the beginning of a new era in software engineering, where every system becomes an increasingly active part of the enterprise.
