FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Context analysis and Sabaf positioning

Market

Competitors

Tariffs

Greater penetration of Turkish and Chinese players in the European market through M&A deals and takeovers of European companies (i.e. Candy, Whirlpool Europe, Gorenje, Teka)

The last 2 years highlighted the difficulty of some competitors, which could open opportunities for M&A and allow us to gain market shares

The first economic policy measures taken by the new US administration have created international tensions, whose effects are still uncertain

  • Direct manufacturing presence in the USA (MEC in Ohio)
  • Sabaf Mexico's production is mainly intended for manufacturers in the Mexican territory
  • FCA delivery terms for customers

The geographical diversification of Sabaf's industrial footprint mitigates the risks associated with tariffs/trade barriers, thanks to the presence of production plants in all key reference markets

2025 | Market trends

Europe

  • Slightly weaker market, with increased competitive pressure
  • Consumers shifted to lower price points driven by geopolitical and economic uncertainty

North America

  • Inflation concerns related to tariffs, weighed on consumer confidence
  • High promotional activity
  • Preference for lower price points

Quarterly industry shipments in U.S.

Source: Electrolux 2Q 2025 presentation

  • Latin America: market demand slightly positive
  • Asia: consumer demand is estimated to have increased y-o-y
  • Middle East and Africa affected by the geopolitical picture

Sabaf Group | Sales and profitability trend1

Sabaf Group confirms its ability to deliver positive results even in a complex macroeconomic phase :

  • unfavorable exchange rate trends
  • international economic uncertainty linked to the application of tariffs
  • geopolitical risks

Sequential improvement in profitability and highest level of margins in the last 4 quarters

  • Sabaf Mexico and India ramp-up
  • MEC positive performance
  • TRY devaluation offsetting the impact of salary increases in Turkey

Capex: aimed at Group organic growth through internationalisation and product innovation, optimising efficiency and automation of production processes. Investments of the period include:

  • the fourth die-casting island at the Mexican plant

Outlook

The Group's current order backlog shows a slightly positive sales trend for the current financial year

In the second half of the year, demand is expected to be stable, with volumes below historical averages, affected by the critical international political and macroeconomic scenario

Expected contribution for 2026 from the launch of new products around 3% of sales

External Growth: the M&A team is constantly exploring new opportunities for external growth

SUSTAINABILITY

Solar power plant

  • Total CapEx: approximately €2.3 mln
  • Will enable the production of electricity using solar photovoltaic technology, significantly contributing to the goal of climate change mitigation
  • Allows self-production of an estimated amount equal to 10-15% of the site's current energy consumption
  • Emissions reduction: ~ 10-15% (Scope 2 emissions from purchased and consumed electricity)
  • Saving: ~ € 0.5 mln / year
  • The solar power plant was completed in June 2025

Sabaf: a sustainable business

Sustainability in the Business plan 2024 - 2026

Environmental impact of different cooking fuels 1/3

About 30% of people on our planet, i.e. 2.5 billion people, are still relies on solid biomass fuels for cooking (wood, charcoal, animal dung, crop residues)

This population is mainly concentrated in Sub-Saharan Africa, where the unavailability of clean fuels affects 82% of the population, but significant percentages characterize also Central Asia, India, China, South-East Asia and Latin America

In addition to being harmful to the environment, the pollution produced by traditional fuels has important consequences on the health of users and families

5.5 billion people use fossil fuels (mainly natural gas and LPG) or electricity for cooking

Environmental impact of different cooking fuels 2/3

Environmental impact of different cooking fuels1

scientific standard method (the ReCiPE 2016), which is based on 3 impact categories: • damage to human health

The environmental impact was measured using a

  • damage to ecosystem quality
  • damage to resource availability

The environmental impact was highest in the case of coal cooking appliances (112) and lowest for LPG and methane cooking appliances (5 and 5.2 respectively).

Electric cooking appliances, with an impact of 9, highlighted an environmental impact equal to 180% of that deriving from gas hobs

Cooking through a gas hob instead of using firewood as cooking fuel, reduces the environmental impact by 80%

Italian Journal of Food Science, 2022 – Environmental impact of the main household cooking systems – A survey, 2022 Alessio Cimini and Mauro Moresi, Università della Tuscia

Environmental impact of different cooking fuels 3/3

Promote access to energy sources with lower impact for the population that still uses solid fuels

Favor electric cooking only where and when the energy production mix is characterized by a predominant component of green energy

An induction hob causes lower CO2 emissions than a gas hob only if the electricity is produced with a % of renewable sources (and/or nuclear energy) higher than 70%

The Sabaf Group pursue a business development path consistent with the ecological transition plans:

  • Sabaf is investing to promote diffusion of gas cooking appliances in emerging countries, replacing traditional cooking methods with much higher environmental impact
  • At the same time, Sabaf is investing to enter the sector of induction cooking, the most efficient form of electric cooking, which is constantly growing in the European market, although such trend has slowed down in the last 3 years

A possible revolution - Hydrogen burners

The Sabaf Group actively takes part in research projects aimed at evaluating the feasibility of replacing natural gas (methane) with hydrogen as a source for gas cooking appliances

Burners operating with 100% hydrogen: laboratory tests and prototypes have confirmed the technical feasibility of these products

The possibility to use hydrogen on a large scale as a fuel has still to overcome important technological challenges, both in terms of its production and distribution

A possible solution in a relatively short time is the use of a mix of methane and hydrogen, through the existing distribution network

Hy4Heat project, promoted by the British government, concluded in 2022 with positive results

Pilot project in collaboration with the Colombian client Industrias Haceb → European Union Sustainability certification LCBA (Low Carbon and Circular Economy Business Action)
