Gross margin shortfall estimated to max 1%-point if EU tariffs go to 20% and China tariffs at 145%. Contractual terms with customer regulate risk burden
Tariff uncertainty and lower GDP growth may reduce and delay Recycling and ood customers' investments. OMRA's global customer base and diversified segment exposure balances growth risk. Collection is deemed to be largely unaffected.
A strengthening/weakening of EUR toward other currencies of 10% would normally decrease/increase EBITA by ~5%. A currency hedging strategy is in place for future predicted cashflow to mitigate effects.
Focus on supply security and reduced global trade increases the need for more recycled material and other circular solutions. Changes in trade flows of food creates new export markets which drive demand for food grading and sorting.

Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control.
