**The turnover for the Q1 2021 is reported on a pro-forma basis

The Engineering Business Unit - support activity for manufacturers in the development of their products, processes and product life cycle - (53.5% of turnover) increases by 12.6% over the 1st half of the year, including 10.9% in the 2nd quarter, driven by the growth in commercial aviation.

After this operation, Oktal (Sogeclair) still holds 55.25%, Dassault Systèmes 15%, UTAC 15% and Renault Group 14.75% of AVSimulation.

The Conseil Business Unit - auditing, consulting and optimization of technologies and processes - (0.4% of turnover – 0.6% over the quarter): newly created activity increases (x2.2) compared with the first quarter thanks to orders in the aeronautics and space sectors.
