COMMENTS FROM THE CEO

Improved profitability and positioned for long-term growth

I am pleased to report organic earnings growth in the third quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was SEK 915 million, corresponding to an 8 percent organic growth year on year. The Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to a record high of 14 percent, driven by gross profit growth, cost control and increased synergies. Organic gross profit growth was 5 percent, in line with the previous quarter although the profile of this growth is not yet what we expect to deliver over time. Our strong cash generation enabled us to take an important step forward this quarter with the launch of our first share buyback program, underscoring our confidence in Sinch's longterm value.

Market growth remains stable, but the structural shifts driven by conversational messaging and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are accelerating. We are at the forefront of this change. To date, our volume of RCS for Business messages has increased threefold compared to the same period last year. This growth is led by India, followed by Latin America, and early adopter markets in Europe. We are proud to see our clients Picard, Courir and Clarins have been nominated for retail technology innovation awards for their powerful RCS campaigns in the quarter.

A major milestone was achieved in August when all major US Tier-1 operators were live with RCS for Business. Reach is growing rapidly, with several brands already achieving over 75 percent RCS coverage among their customers, firmly establishing RCS as a viable and powerful alternative to SMS. The growing adoption of RCS for Business stimulates the broader market for conversational messaging. To complement our RCS Upscale offering, we have now launched WhatsApp Upscale. These developments accelerate the market for conversational messaging and reinforce the value of our channel-agnostic platform. Sinch is well positioned to help businesses navigate this complexity and connect with customers on any channel they choose.

The use of AI in combination with conversational messaging is a strong driver of market growth and remains a central pillar of our strategy. We view AI agents as our newest customers and intend to power the last mile of agentic communication. We are not simply adding AI features, we are building an intelligent, AI-driven communications platform that creates new opportunities for our customers. In the quarter, we have seen market validation of this position and Sinch API-products are now powering leading AIinnovators in all regions.

In Americas, we saw strong organic gross profit growth of 8 percent, driven by the successful turnaround of our Network Connectivity business and strong growth in Applications. The underlying growth in our API business was solid, but overall growth was dampened by competitive pressure among a few of our large

enterprise customers. I am pleased with our intake of new enterprise accounts which is reducing customer concentration. However, new business does take time to ramp so their contribution does not yet fully offset the effects of competitive pressure elsewhere.

Gross profit in EMEA declined by 3 percent, which is below our expectations. Network Connectivity and Applications contributed positively to growth. API platform experienced continued solid growth in messaging, while our reduced focus on fixed price contracts burdened overall growth.

In APAC, organic gross profit grew by 1 percent. We have strong momentum in our API business with enterprises, particularly as a world leading e-commerce enterprise became one of our largest regional customers. However, overall API growth was subdued by margin pressure from SMS in India. Within Applications, competitive pressure, especially in Australia, negatively affected gross profit growth.

Our strategic initiatives are yielding results. The analyst firm Gartner recognized our industry leadership by naming Sinch a Leader in its CPaaS Magic Quadrant for the third consecutive year. We see strong traction with large enterprise customers, increasing in numbers with some 5 percent year on year. We continue to develop our self-serve offer which has delivered double-digit gross profit growth year to date. RCS for Business traffic has tripled year-on-year and has now been fully rolled-out in the US. In addition, our Email volumes have increased by 39 percent versus last year. Our partner and ecosystem activities support growth of conversational messaging, applications and our geographic expansion. Partners alone, have generated 5 percent gross profit growth year to date.

Looking ahead, we remain confident in our strategy and our ability to deliver long-term sustainable and profitable growth.

Excluding IFRS 16-related lease liabilities, net debt in relation to adjusted EBITDA R12M was 1.4x (1.6). This is a slight increase compared to the second quarter, primarily driven by the buybacks of shares during the third quarter.

Sinch's credit facility agreement was extended and refinanced in Q3, on existing terms. The change involved a new maturity date and reduction in the size of the facility, which entails a decrease in annual financing costs.

As of September 30, Sinch had total available credit facilities of SEK 7,942m (11,123), of which the company had used SEK 3,702m (5,074). These consisted of:

  • A used loan of USD 100m that matures in February 2027.
  • Credit facilities of SEK 6,018m that mature in July 2028, of which SEK 2,638m had been used as of September 30, 2025.
  • Bank overdraft facilities of SEK 882m (903), of which SEK 22m (0) had been used as of September 30, 2025.
  • A money market loan of SEK 100m that matures in October, 2025.

In addition to these, there are senior unsecured bonds in the amount of SEK 500m (1,173) that will mature in September, 2027, and commercial paper of SEK 1,434m (513) that will mature in less than 12 months.

Financial liabilities decreased during the period by SEK -243m (-1,388). During the same period, the company's net debt decreased by SEK -274m (-1,514).

In total, Sinch had cash and cash equivalents of SEK 592m and unused loans, credit facilities, and overdraft facilities of SEK 4,240m as of September 30, 2025.

Shares were issued in relation to employee stock options/warrants under the Group's incentive programs. See Note 4.

Equity as of September 30, 2025, amounted to SEK 24,524m (27,770), corresponding to an equity ratio of 60 percent (61).

Share buyback and equity swap

Supported by the mandate of the AGM held May 22, the Board of Directors announced on July 21 the decision to buy back shares corresponding to up to 10 percent of total shares outstanding in the company during the period prior to the 2026 AGM. The buyback is intended to adjust the company's capital and equity structure to further increase shareholder value. Sinch bought back 15,279,642 shares in Q3 for a total of SEK 519m within the framework of the previously communicated buyback program, which corresponds to 1.8 percent of total shares outstanding.

The total number of shares issued in Sinch is 844,935,967, of which the company now holds 15,279,642 treasury shares.

During the third quarter, Sinch entered into a share swap agreement with a third party, which in its own name acquires and transfers shares in Sinch to employees who participate in long-term incentive programs. The total number of shares purchased during the period amounts to 10,857,000 shares, with a value of SEK 329m.

Net sales

Net sales amounted to SEK 4,199m (4,554). Adjusted for currency effects, net sales were unchanged on organic basis. The currency headwind was 8 percent, corresponding to SEK -343m.

Gross profit

Gross profit was SEK 1,468m (1,482). Gross profit increased organically by 8 percent. The organic growth in gross profit was driven by all product categories. Network Connectivity delivered particularly strong organic growth during the quarter due to persistent margin improvements. The solid underlying growth in the API platform driven by a broader and expanding customer base, was partly offset by competitive pressure among a few large customers in the installed base, which held back overall growth. The currency headwind was 9 percent, corresponding to SEK -135m.

The gross margin increased to 35 percent (33), driven by underlying profitability at the product level in API Platform and Network Connectivity.

Note 1. Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the applicable provisions of the Annual Accounts Act. Disclosures in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting are provided in notes and elsewhere in the interim report. The interim report for the parent company has been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act, which is in accordance with RFR 2 Accounting of Legal Entities. The accounting policies and estimation methods are unchanged from those applied in the 2024 Annual Report. The financial statements are presented in SEKm unless otherwise specified. Amounts and calculations presented in the tables are rounded off and may not precisely match the figures presented in the financial statements and notes.

New standards and interpretations in 2025

The new or amended IFRS standards applicable in 2025 and later have had no material impact on Sinch financial statements. Risks and uncertainties relevant to Sinch are described in the 2024 Annual Report.

New and amended IFRS not yet effective

IASB has published the following new or revised standards, of which IFRS 18 and IFRS 19 have not yet been adopted by the EU:

  • IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements
  • IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates
  • IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures
  • IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures

In April 2024, IASB published the new IFRS 18 standard Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements, which will supersede IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18, if adopted by the EU, will become mandatorily effective January 1, 2027, and will be applied retrospectively in both annual and interim reports.

The new standard introduces three areas with new requirements aimed at increasing the comparability, transparency, and usability of financial reports. The first area sets new requirements for the structure of the consolidated statement of profit or loss (statement of comprehensive income) through the introduction of three new categories and requires entities to present two new defined subtotals, "Operating profit" and "Profit before financing and income taxes." The second area introduces new principles and expanded guidance on presentation and disclosures in the financial statements, including guidance concerning now entities can determine whether information about an item should or should not be included in the primary financial statements. The third area that IFRS 18 introduces entails new requirements for disclosures about certain key figures that the company uses in its external financial communication, i.e. Management-defined performance measures or "MPMs." Consequent upon the implementation of IFRS 18, there will be amendments to other standards, such as IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows, IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and IAS 33 Earnings per Share.

Sinch has begun a preliminary assessment of the impacts of IFRS 18 and will continue to assess the impacts in 2025. The implementation of IFRS 18 is going to require changes to the structure of the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (profit or loss) and assessments related to the presentation of items in the financial statements and disclosures in notes. The format of the statement of cash flow will also be affected by the implementation of IFRS 18. The implementation of IFRS 18 will also entail identification of MPMs that are relevant to the Group and

compilation of disclosures concerning these performance measures in notes.

The other amendments have been determined as having no material impact on the consolidated or parent company financial statements in the period of initial application. None of the new or revised standards have been early applied by the Group.

Receivables and accrued revenues

Accounts receivable (both billed and unbilled) have an unconditional right to payment. Revenues based on an unconditional right to payment must be reported as unbilled receivables if the amounts have not been billed as of the reporting date, while revenues that have been billed are shown as billed receivables on the balance sheet. Most customers are billed monthly in arrears (after services are rendered) and the unbilled receivables are converted to billed receivables a few days after the close of books.

Contract assets referring to accrued revenue have a conditional right to payment, which means for example that Sinch must first satisfy a final contractual obligation before an unconditional right to payment is established.

Financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets and liabilities are recognized at amortized cost, which is deemed to constitute their fair value because a majority of loan financing is carried at a three-month rate.

Related-party transactions

There have been no significant changes in the relationships and transactions with related parties compared to that disclosed in the 2024 Annual Report.

Hedging of currency risk in foreign net investments

In Q2 2025, net investments in foreign subsidiaries were partially hedged by means of derivative instruments and foreign currency loans that are translated to the closing rate on the reporting date. Exchange rate differences arising from financial instruments used as hedging instruments in a hedge of net investments in foreign subsidiaries are recognized, to the extent the hedge is effective, in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the translation reserve in equity. When a subsidiary is sold, the cumulative value change related to the sold business and to the financial instruments used to currency hedge the net assets is moved from the translation reserve in equity to profit or loss for the year.

Share buyback

Based by the mandate of the AGM held May 22, 2025, the Board of Directors of Sinch AB announced its decision to buy back shares equal to up to 10 percent of total shares outstanding in the company. Upon buyback of treasury shares, equity is reduced by the consideration paid including any transaction costs.

Share-based payments

Sinch entered into an equity swap contract in Q3 to meet its future commitment to offer up to 12.8 million shares to participants in LTI 2025, provided vesting conditions are met. The employee incentive program is secured through an agreement to buy back own shares (total return swap). The contract with a third party entails the parent company to buy its own equity instruments (treasury shares) at a predetermined price. The equity swap contract is thus classified as an equity instrument, and the corresponding amount is accounted for as a reduction in equity. The outcome upon sale is not recognized in the income statement, but rather as a change in equity. Interest paid under the equity swap contract is recognized as a financial expense on the income statement.

Note 2. Operating profit

EBITDA and EBIT adjustments are intended to clarify performance in underlying operations. The adjustments include acquisition costs, integration costs, operational foreign exchange gains/losses, restructuring costs, costs of share-based incentive programs, and non-recurring adjustments.

The costs of incentive programs are clarified and divided into payroll costs and social insurance costs, where payroll costs are,

in accordance with IFRS 2, an estimated cost that does not affect cash flow and social insurance costs fluctuate with Sinch's price per share. Excluding these costs from adjusted EBITDA ensures that short-term changes in the share price do not impede analysis of the underlying business and makes it easier to relate adjusted EBITDA to Sinch's cash flow.

Pledged assets amounted to SEK 68m (127) and contingent liabilities amounted to SEK 34m (32). Pledged assets amounted to SEK 126m and contingent liabilities to SEK 32m on December 31, 2024.

Note 4. Incentive programs

Within the framework of LTI 2024, adopted by the AGM on May 16, 2024, senior executives and key employees within Sinch were granted 277,500 warrants in Q1 and 250,000 employee stock options in Q2. The warrants were granted at market value corresponding to subscription prices of SEK 9.40, SEK 9.44, and SEK 9.87 for the respective series. The maximum number of instruments in LTI 2024 is 17,100,000.

Within the framework of LTI 2025 adopted by the EGM on August 14, 2025, senior executives and key employees within Sinch were granted 10,680,800 employee stock options in Q3. The maximum number of instruments in LTI 2025 is 12,800,000.

Sinch entered into an equity swap contract with a third party in Q3, 2025, to hedge the expected financial exposure of LTI 2025. As of September 30, the equity swap consisted of 10,857,000 shares corresponding to SEK 329m.

In Q3, 271,473 options from LTI 2022, 3,126 options from LTI 2023, and 15,624 options from LTI 2024 were exercised, where each option carried 1 share. The exercise prices were, respectively, SEK 14.654, SEK 27.13, and SEK 21.63 per share.

In relation to this, 290,223 shares will be registered in Q4 and Sinch will thereby gain an additional SEK 4m in equity through the exercise.

The total costs of incentive programs recognized in profit or loss for Q3 amounted to SEK -11m (-27). Payroll costs for vested employee stock options in all programs were included in profit or loss in the amount of SEK -7m (-18) with a corresponding increase in equity. Social insurance costs, based on the share price and the vesting period, reduced profit by SEK -4m (-9) and resulted in an increased provision in the statement of financial position.

Total costs for the incentive programs amount to SEK -37m (-41) for the period of January-September, 2025. Payroll costs for vested employee stock options in all programs were included in profit or loss in the amount of SEK -25m (-42) with a corresponding increase in equity. Social insurance costs, based on the share price and the vesting period, reduced profit by SEK -12m (1) and resulted in an increased provision in the statement of financial position.

The performance criterion of adjusted EBITDA/share amounted to SEK 1.09 (1.09) for Q3 and to SEK 3.16 (3.05) for the period of January-September.

The potential dilutive effect, calculated based on the exercise price of the options in relation to the average share price during the period, was 0.9 percent (0.5) upon exercise of all outstanding warrants and employee stock options when the exercise price is lower than the share price on the reporting date. See Note 9 of the 2024 Annual Report for further disclosures regarding the Group's incentive programs LTI 2020, LTI II 2020, LTI 2021, LTI II 2021, LTI 2022, LTI 2023, and LTI 2024,

Note 5. Depreciation, amortization and impairments

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually in connection with updated business plans in the third quarter. Impairment tests are also performed when there is an indication that the asset has decreased in value.

There were no indications of goodwill impairment in the cash generating units in Q3 2025.

Note 12. Financial risk management

Currency risk arises in the translation of the net assets of foreign subsidiaries to the parent company's functional currency ("translation exposure"). Sinch began to apply hedge accounting in Q2 2025 in accordance with IFRS 9 with regard to net investments in foreign subsidiaries by means of raising currency loans and derivative instruments in the corresponding currency in order to reduce volatility in recognized profit or loss. No ineffectiveness in the hedging relationship had impact on profit or loss for the period. At the end of the period, net assets in USD had been hedged in the amount of USD 327m.

The translation reserve in consolidated equity includes all exchange rate differences that arise upon translation of financial statements in a currency other than SEK, which is the Group's presentation currency. As of September 30, 2025, the translation reserve on the consolidated statement of financial position includes exchange rate differences of SEK 31m, before tax, that arose upon revaluation of liabilities taken up as hedging instruments for a net investment in a foreign operation.

More information about risks and risk management is provided in the 2024 Annual Report.

Definitions

Regions

Effective January 1, 2024, the new Sinch operating model and operating segments are based on three geographical regions: Americas, EMEA, and APAC. The regions represent the domiciles of our customers.

Product categories

Sinch discloses supplementary financial information across three product categories.

Applications

This product category targets business users and consists of software applications for customer engagement, supporting use cases across marketing, operations, and customer care.

API Platform

Products within this category target developers and product managers. APIs allow businesses to trigger mobile messaging, voice calling, and emails, from their own internal or third-party IT systems.

Network Connectivity

Network Connectivity products target telecom operators and wholesale voice buyers. The portfolio primarily includes voice and messaging interconnect services, operator software, and services.

Financial measurements defined under IFRS:

Earnings per share, basic and diluted

Definition: Net profit for the period attributable to owners of the parent divided by the volume-weighted average number of shares outstanding in the period before/after dilution.

Financial measures not defined under IFRS:

The company presents certain financial measurements that are not defined under IFRS. The company believes that these measurements provide useful supplemental information to investors and the company's management for reasons including that they enable evaluation of the company's performance. Because not all companies calculate financial measurements in the same way, these are not always comparable to measurements used by other companies. These financial measurements should therefore not be considered a substitute for measurements defined under IFRS. For a reconciliation of these financial measurements and organic growth, please refer to investors.sinch.com.

Gross profit

Definition: Net sales less the cost of services sold.

Purpose: A large share of Sinch's cost of services sold consists of traffic fees paid to mobile operators. Operator traffic fees differ significantly from one country to the next. Consequently, changes in traffic patterns and the volume mix can have high impact on net sales and the gross margin even though there is no effect on gross profit in absolute numbers.

Gross margin

Definition: Gross profit in relation to net sales.

Purpose: The gross margin reflects the percentage of sales that comprises internal value creation and is not passed on to suppliers.

Gross profit growth

Definition: Gross profit for the year divided by gross profit in the preceding year.

Operating expenses (Opex)

Definitions: Opex is defined as the difference between gross profit and EBITDA and consists of the following items: Other operating income, Work performed by the entity and capitalized, Other external expenses, Employee benefits expenses, and Other operating expenses.

EBITDA

Definition: Profit for the period before financial income, financial expenses, tax and depreciation, amortization, and impairments of property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets.

Purpose: Enables comparisons of profitability over time, regardless of the effects of the rate of depreciation and amortization of non-current assets, financing structure and the corporation tax rate.

EBIT

Definition: Profit for the period before financial income, financial expenses, and tax.

Adjusted operating expenses (adjusted Opex)

Definition: adjusted Opex is defined as the difference between gross profit and adjusted EBITDA and consists of the following items: Other operating income, Work performed by the entity and capitalized, Other external expenses, Employee benefits expenses, Other operating expenses, and EBITDA adjustments.

Sales & marketing expenses

Definition: Expenditures associated with promoting and selling our products, including acquiring new customers, and managing existing customer relationships.

Research & development expenses

Definition: Expenditures associated with the development, improvement, and technical operations of our products, net of capitalized software development.

General & administrative expenses

Definition: Expenditures for support functions such as finance, human resources, facilities, information technology, and other administrative functions.

Acquisition costs

Definition: Acquisition costs are such costs incurred as a consequence of a business combination.

Integration costs

Definition: Integration costs arise mainly in connection with business combinations and in connection with the creation of a common IT infrastructure. The nature of the costs consists of alignment of processes, brands and technical systems. The costs are of a non-recurring nature but, unlike restructuring costs, they are connected to the entity's current and future operations. As of 2024, integration costs include only external costs and resources.

Restructuring costs

Definition: Restructuring costs comprise direct costs related to restructuring and have no connection with the company's current operations. Restructuring costs include mainly the costs of laying off employees and indirect costs related to the layoffs.

Adjusted EBITDA

Definition: EBITDA excluding acquisition costs, integration costs, restructuring costs, operational foreign exchange gains/losses, costs of share-based incentive programs and non-recurring adjustments.

Purpose: Enables comparison of profitability over time in underlying operations.

Adjusted EBITDA/gross profit

Definition: The measure shows the company's adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of gross profit. In addition to net sales, the cost of services sold is included in gross profit.

EBITDA margin /adjusted EBITDA margin

Definition: EBITDA/adjusted EBITDA in relation to net sales.

Amortization/depreciation of acquisition-related assets

Definition: Amortization of acquired intangible assets/depreciation of acquired property, plant, and equipment. Depreciation of property, plant, and equipment and amortization of other intangible assets are included in acquisition-related amortization/depreciation, as this is a measure of the use of resources necessary to generate profit.

Adjusted EBIT

Definition: EBIT after the same adjustments as for adjusted EBITDA and excluding depreciation/amortization and impairments of noncash acquisition-related property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets.

Purpose: Enables comparison of profitability over time, regardless of amortization/depreciation and impairment of acquisitionrelated property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets, and independently of financing structure and the corporation tax rate.

EBIT margin/adjusted EBIT margin

Definition: EBIT/adjusted EBIT in relation to net sales.

Net margin

Definition: Net profit for the year in relation to net sales.

Purpose: The net margin is a performance indicator that indicates the size of the company's profit in relation to its turnover, which is useful to assess the efficiency of the company's operations.

Interest-bearing liabilities

Definition: Bond loans, bank loans, overdraft facilities, commercial paper, and lease liabilities.

Purpose: Used to calculate net debt.

Net debt

Definition: Interest-bearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents.

Purpose: Used to track the debt trend and visualize the size of refinancing requirements.

R12M

Definition: Sales, earnings or other results for the past 12 months.

Risk assessment

Sinch is, like all businesses, exposed to various types of risks in its operations. Growth in combination with rapid and continuous changes in the business environment has made it necessary to increase focus on risks and risk management. Sinch has created an ERM (Enterprise Risk Management) process to identify and control risks, and to ensure that required controls and procedures are established to safeguard the assets and interests of the company. Sinch has defined five types of risks under this framework: Strategic, Operational, Legal & Compliance, Financial, and External.

More information about risks and risk management is provided in the 2024 Annual Report.

Outlook

As a general rule, Sinch does not publish forecasts but recognizes that the effects of geopolitical uncertainty and a volatile macroeconomic environment are expected to persist in 2025. The new tariffs presented in early 2025 apply to goods and have not affected Sinch's services. Despite significant macroeconomic change during the past couple of years, Sinch has remained an industry leader with good underlying profitability and robust cash flows.

This report contains statements concerning, among other things, Sinch's financial position and earnings as well as statements regarding market conditions that may be forward-looking.

Forwardlooking statements, however, include risks and uncertainties and actual outcomes or consequences may differ materially from those expressed.

Review Report

Introduction

We have reviewed the interim report for Sinch AB (publ) for the period January 1 - September 30, 2025. The Board of Directors and the President are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review has a different focus and is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and other generally accepted auditing practices. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed based on an audit.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not, in all material respects, prepared for the Group in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act, and for the Parent Company in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.
