Tariff update: ~15% of TOMRA Group revenues are exposed to imports of goods to the United States

First order effects - limited

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

Second order effects

Growth risk

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.

Opportunities

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.
