CONTENT ABOUT ENEA BUSINESS CONCEPT AND STRATEGY SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OTHER INFORMATION
Communication is a fundamental prerequisite for innovation, business, and societal development. It is the backbone of our connected world and needs to work around the clock, without interruption or disturbance. As CEO of Enea, I am proud to lead a company with a clear and determined focus on securing digital communication and thereby contributing to a safer and more functional world. Our solutions enable customers to secure, streamline and add value to their businesses, while strengthening the communication networks on which society and business rely.
Stability in a changing world
Despite a challenging currency environment, 2025 clearly demonstrated the strength of Enea's core business. Although our reported revenue was significantly impacted by the SEK's appreciation against most currencies, particularly the USD, I am proud to note that we achieved 2 percent growth in constant currency, while slightly improving our profitability during the year. Since the majority of our revenue is in USD, we experienced a negative currency effect of nearly 20 percent during the year, which impacted growth in reported figures.
At the same time, we saw very strong performance in Traffic Management and Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), while our firewall segment faced a more challenging year, impacted by lower-than-expected customer activity. Our legacy portfolio continued to perform well, despite parts of it - primarily
operating systems - being in structural decline. Overall, 2025 was a stable financial year, supporting the accelerated growth trajectory we defined for the company.
A strong portfolio that drives innovation, customer value, and growth
Advances in artificial intelligence create significant growth opportunities, but also pose increased security risks when the same technology is used by malicious actors for criminal purposes. For us at Enea, AI is not a passing trend - it is an integral part of our daily business, and we have already implemented several
AI-based features in our solutions to help our customers stay one step ahead of increasingly sophisticated threats. Responsible and business-oriented use of AI is now an essential part of our business and strengthens our competitiveness.
"Overall, 2025 was
a stable financial year, supporting the accelerated growth trajectory we defined for the company."

ANNUAL REPORT 2025
CONTENT ABOUT ENEA BUSINESS CONCEPT AND STRATEGY SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OTHER INFORMATION
Our telecom customers need to continuously strengthen their security capabilities to defend against increasingly sophisticated attacks. At the same time, they need to optimize their investments and continue developing their core businesses. Our solutions are designed to meet these very needs. Our firewall solutions enhance security while also contributing to increased revenue from messaging services. Through our Traffic Management solution, we help customers deliver a superior user experience while optimizing resource utilization in their networks with the help of our intelligent network performance software.
National security broadens Enea's customer base and drives growth
In the current geopolitical climate, characterized by rising nationalism, a stronger focus on national control and escalating conflicts, national security has become even more of a priority. In 2025, Enea entered into several national security agreements, in which our robust solutions help strengthen countries' security capabilities. This segment is strategically important to us and is expected to be a significant driver of Enea's continued growth.
From resilience to acceleration
In Ǫ4, we launched an updated strategy with clear priorities and revised financial ambitions. The strategy rests on three pillars, namely market acceleration, vertical expansion, and product offering evolution.
Market acceleration involves strengthening our sales efforts in regions where we already have a strong position and solid growth, while simultaneously expanding our presence in other regions with significant growth potential.
Vertical expansion focuses on further developing and adapting our existing offerings for new customer segments. A clear example is our expansion in national security. Another is our repackaged offerings for Tier 2 operators and Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs), which are designed to enhance security while enabling more efficient monetization.
Product offering evolution ensure that Enea can continue to maintain and strengthen its position as market leader in the areas in which we operate. Our investments in AI will continue to increase, and research and development (RCD) are crucial for us to stay one step ahead of the competition and continue to win business. We invest approximately 25 percent of our revenue in RCD, which gives us a strong foundation for continued innovation and long-term, sustainable growth.
"Security is no longer an option
- it is a prerequisite for running a resilient and successful business."
Well positioned for a secure future
Enea is well positioned for the future, with an offering that is both relevant and competitive. Security is no longer an option - it is a prerequisite for running a resilient and successful business. This development is also driven by increased regulatory requirements globally, which means that our customers need to invest to meet - and in many cases exceed - the requirements set. At the same time, an increased focus on national control and a more volatile geopolitical environment create favorable conditions for Enea.
In closing, I would like to extend my warmest thanks to all of our employees. It is your commitment and expertise that form the foundation of where we stand today and of our continued development. I would also like to thank our customers and investors for the trust you place in us. We strive every day to live up to that trust. Our customers' success is Enea's success, and we are committed to contributing to their business goals.
Sincerely,
Teemu Salmi
President and CEO

Over the course of the year, we have further refined our strategy to better respond to a rapidly changing market. The updated strategy, presented in November 2025, sets out our priorities for the future and strengthens our ability to deliver high customer value, profitable growth and an offering that evolves in step with the demands of the world around us. With our aim set on 2028, we now have a clearly defined ambition and concrete objectives for the company's continued development.
To ensure comparability between years, Enea reports operations for 2025 using the previous portfolio structure. The updated structure will be introduced in the financial reporting starting in 2026.
Three strategic pillars
The updated strategy is based on three strategic pillars, each with clear content and defined priorities. These pillars are Market acceleration, Vertical expansion, and Product offering evolution.
1
Market acceleration
We are expanding our efforts in North America through increased investments and growth initiatives aimed at capturing a larger share of the available market potential and strengthening our position in the region. At the same time, we are focusing on capitalizing on business opportunities in Latin America and Asia-Pacific by leveraging the use of our current product portfolio. Although Enea already has an extensive customer base in these regions, evolving customer needs create opportunities to offer additional solutions from the portfolio.
2
Vertical expansion
To meet the growing demand for cybersecurity and resilience, we are increasing our focus on authorities and critical operations. This vertical expansion encompasses public sector entities, including defense, national security and critical infrastructure, where geopolitical developments are driving increased investment in protection against cyber threats.
Through our advanced solutions for analyzing and managing internet traffic, we are strengthening our customers' cybersecurity and thereby our position in a rapidly changing global market. Our strong offerings, primarily in Traffic Management and DPI, are expected to drive the expansion of our customer base, such as MVNOs.
3
Product offering evolution
We are further developing our product portfolio to meet the changing needs of our customers and strengthen Enea's competitiveness. Product development is driven by three key areas: security, monetization and optimization, where advanced AI technologies play an increasingly important role. By optimizing network resources, combating fraud and making security a strategic asset, Enea creates increased customer value and
long-term sustainable growth for our customers. As the threat landscape evolves and geopolitical tensions rise, our solutions are becoming increasingly relevant for strengthening national security and protecting critical infrastructure. We are therefore continuing to accelerate the development and integration of AI into our products to further enhance functionality and competitiveness.

Adjusted EBITDA of over 35 percent by the end of 2028
These targets aim to ensure sustainable growth, increased customer value and a continued strong position in a rapidly evolving global market.
Acquisitions
Acquisitions have long been an important tool for strengthening our growth and broadening our offering. Over time, we have successfully acquired and integrated several companies within our core areas. With a strong financial position, we are well positioned to finance further acquisitions, and potential acquisition candidates are continuously evaluated.
The marketCONTENT ABOUT ENEA BUSINESS CONCEPT AND STRATEGY SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OTHER INFORMATION
We operate and specialize in key segments of the global communications and cybersecurity market. We focus on areas that require secure, reliable and high-performance digital infrastructure for mission-critical services. Our customer segments primarily include telecom operators, CPaaS providers and network and cybersecurity vendors. Government security authorities and national security actors also use Enea's technology for threat detection and to strengthen their national cybersecurity profile.
The primary drivers behind investments in telecom infrastructure and communications solutions are the rapidly growing demand for accessible, reliable and secure high-speed connectivity, which is reinforced by increased regulatory requirements. At the same time, network traffic continues to grow significantly faster than revenues for service providers, creating a clear need for software solutions that optimize network performance, prevent revenue leakage and enable competitive differentiation through faster service delivery and a superior user experience.
As telecom networks are increasingly viewed as critical national infrastructure, cybersecurity threats continue to rise. Protecting mobile networks and digital communications has therefore become a strategic priority for telecom operators globally, in an increasingly uncertain geopolitical environment. At the same time, the rapidly growing volume of encrypted and complex traffic increases the need for solutions that provide clear, accurate and real-time visibility into network traffic, such as DPI.
As service providers, enterprises and security suppliers migrate to cloud-based, cloud-native architectures, the demand for advanced traffic intelligence grows. This is crucial for improving network performance, identifying threats at an early stage and enabling the delivery of differentiated and value-added services.
Drivers of growth
Our business opportunities are shaped by a combination of industry-specific factors, technological advancements and broader societal and economic trends. Some of the most relevant drivers affecting our business include:
Fraud and security threats
In recent years, global cybersecurity threats have intensified from already high levels, due in part to attackers taking advantage of AI. According to Check Point Research, the average number of weekly cyberattacks per organization increased by approximately 21 percent in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, and was 58 percent higher than the corresponding period in 2023.¹ The number of ransomware attacks also increased globally by approximately 32 percent in 2025 compared to 2024.² The threat landscape not only affects critical infrastructure for telecom networks, businesses and consumers, but also has consequences for society as a whole and for the ongoing digitalization. An increasing number of societal functions and activities depend on secure and resilient communication systems. Incidents such as phone and messaging scams, as well as widespread service disruptions, have contributed to greater public awareness, and attacks on telecom networks

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OTHER INFORMATION
are increasingly viewed as a matter of national security. Encryption is intended to strengthen user privacy but also poses increased security risks by making traffic analysis and accurate classification more difficult. Governments around the world are responding with new cybersecurity directives and regulations that place higher demands on the telecom and IT industries to protect networks, data and subscribers, as well as to manage geopolitical risks in service delivery. Businesses are also increasing their investment in cybersecurity and placing higher demands on their telecoms and service providers.
Increased demand for data
Telecom networks need to handle a continued surge in data traffic. This growth is primarily driven by increased video consumption, which places particularly high demands on capacity in indoor environments, where the majority of data is consumed. At the same time, new revenue streams from these investments have not yet fully materialized, meaning that telecom operators are increasingly focusing on improving the profitability of existing networks. Enea's software contributes to this by optimizing the management of data and video traffic and enabling cost-effective control of Wi-Fi networks in
high-traffic indoor environments. Some operators have also been able to increase revenue by offering subscription plans with differentiated speeds and developing new offerings to address the rapidly growing video gaming market.
Artificial intelligence and automation
The telecom and cybersecurity sectors are early adopters of advanced AI. It is used for purposes such as improving customer service solutions, streamlining operational processes and automating complex network functions that enhance performance and efficiency.
Enea's products integrate advanced AI technologies to predict and manage network load, and identify and classify different types of traffic at scale. Since the effectiveness of AI and automation depends on access to relevant, high-quality
data, these development trends are driving increased demand for specialized software solutions that enable operators and software providers to collect, process and use different types of data in critical network environments.
Cloud
The migration to cloud-based solutions is one of the most prominent industry trends. This development encompasses both public and private cloud platforms, with private clouds continuing to dominate among mobile operators. The transition impacts both technology choices and business models, requiring software specifically developed for cloud environments that offers high flexibility and scalability.
Cloud-based solutions enable new business models, such as subscription-based licensing and usage-based pricing, which create greater flexibility for both customers and suppliers.
Enea's products are developed and adapted for these environments, enabling the company to offer alternative business models, such as a SaaS model.
Enea is well positioned
People, businesses and societal functions around the world are becoming more and more dependent on secure and reliable digital communication. As traffic volumes increase and the number of connected devices continues to grow, the need for investment in technology that both protects and optimizes digital communication is on the rise. Enea's business concept is to develop and sell software that secures and optimizes communication in mobile and IT networks. The transition to cloud solutions, AI and next-generation mobile networks is changing market dynamics in an industry previously dominated by just a few major players. Traditional, vendor-locked systems are increasingly being replaced by open and cloud-based solutions developed through collaboration between different specialized software providers. As a leading provider, Enea is well positioned to capitalize on the structural changes and long-term trends shaping the market.

This financial position has enabled share buybacks and strategic acquisitions with good returns. The continued development of a diversified portfolio of high-margin products creates further conditions for enhanced profitability over time and provides room for new growth initiatives and long-term shareholder value.

The closing price at year-end was SEK 70.30, which means that Enea's share price fell by 29.1 percent during the year. This can be compared with the OMX Stockholm All-Share Gross Index (OMXSGI), which rose by 12.8 percent during the same period.
Trading volume
A total of 9.4 million shares were traded during the year at a total value of SEK 643 million (606), which amounts to an average of 37,638 shares (34,782) per trading day.
Ownership
The number of shareholders was 7,302 as of December 31, 2025 (8,403). Enea is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm (ticker: ENEA). The company's largest shareholders are Per Lindberg with 36.26 percent, Enea AB with 7.09 percent, Första

The number of shares amounted to 20,560,581 as of December 31, 2025. As of the same date, Enea AB held a total of 1,457,296 shares, corresponding to 7.1 percent of the total number of shares.
One ordinary share has a quota value of SEK 1.20 and entitles the holder to voting rights (one vote per share) at the Annual General Meeting. The total number of votes is 20,560,581.
Under the provisions of the Articles of Association, there are no restrictions on the transferability of shares or on each shareholder's voting rights at the Annual General Meeting.
Capital structure
In a company of Enea's nature, where software development and sales represent a significant component of the business, maintaining a strong financial position is of great importance. To enable Enea to continue its growth, including through acquisitions, the company may, over time, become net indebted. The Board of Directors continuously monitors the company's long-term financing needs.
Dividend policy
Enea's long-term dividend policy is that at least 30 percent of net profit after tax shall be distributed to shareholders.
However, consideration shall be given to the financial position, cash flow, acquisition opportunities and future prospects.
Given the acquisition opportunities and future prospects that Enea's Board of Directors foresees for the coming years, no dividend is proposed for 2025.
Authorization - acquisition of treasury shares
The 2025 Annual General Meeting resolved to authorize the Board of Directors to decide on the acquisition and transfer of treasury shares. Acquisition of treasury shares may only take place on Nasdaq Stockholm or in the form of an acquisition offer to all of the company's shareholders. The acquisition may involve no more shares than is necessary to ensure that the company's own holding at any given time does not exceed 10 percent of all shares in the company.
The transfer of treasury shares is also permitted by means other than on via the stock exchange, including the right to transfer waiving shareholders' preferential rights and with payment in a form other than cash. A maximum of 10 percent of the total number of shares in the company may be transferred. The above authorization may be exercised on one or more occasions and no later than the 2026 Annual General Meeting.
The acquisition of shares on the stock exchange may only take place at a price within the price range registered on the stock exchange at any given time. Transfers in connection with company acquisitions may take place at a market value determined by the Board of Directors. The purpose of acquiring or transferring treasury shares is to be able to continuously adapt the company's capital structure to its capital needs, to enable financing, in whole or in part, in connection with company acquisitions and to be able to secure available shares in decided share savings programs.
New share issue
The 2025 Annual General Meeting authorized the Board of Directors to, on one or more occasions until the 2026 Annual General Meeting, resolve on a new share issue in order to be able to finance continued growth and expansion, for example in connection with company acquisitions. This authorization grants the Board of Directors the right to issue shares corresponding to a maximum of 2,056,058 shares, i.e. a maximum of ten percent of the number of outstanding shares following cancellation of shares pursuant to a resolution by the Annual General Meeting. The share issue may take place with or without waiving of shareholders' preferential rights. The issue price shall be determined based on market terms. Payment for new shares may be made in cash, via offset or contribution in kind or other terms stated in Chapter 13, Section 5(1), Item 6 of the Swedish Companies Act. In other respects, the Board of Directors may determine the terms and conditions of new share issue. For more information, please visit https://www.enea.com.

SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
IntroductionSustainability is a vital element of Enea's operations and a key factor in our long-term success. We actively work to integrate sustainability aspects throughout our business model and into our daily decisions. By reducing our sustainability footprint while amplifying the positive impact of our solutions, we contribute to a more sustainable, resilient and secure digital future.
We are proud of how our products and service offerings contribute to safe and open communities by providing robust telecom services that modern society relies on. Through our partnership with the Internet Watch Foundation, we are continuously developing our content filtering services, which, among other things, allow parents and guardians to protect their children from harmful and illegal digital content. Our experts have also researched and shared their knowledge on how mobile communications can be secured in situations characterized by so-called "hybrid warfare", where networks are critical to the functioning of society but can also be exploited by enemies.
The telecom industry accounts for up to 2 percent of global energy consumption, and mobile data traffic continues to grow rapidly. Studies from 2022 show that our traffic management solutions can help an average mobile operator reduce its energy consumption by over 10 percent. Since video streaming accounts for the majority of today's data traffic and is expected to increase further as AR (Augmented Reality) and VR (Virtual Reality) become established, optimizing video streaming has never been more important. Our work focuses on improving network energy efficiency without compromising the user experience.
As an industry leader, it is important for us to contribute to the development of standards and security solutions for the mobile networks of the future. Through our involvement in the industry organizations Mobile Ecosystem Forum and GSMA Fraud and Security Group, we are actively working to advance new frameworks and strengthen security in global telecom environments. As part of our sustainability efforts, we continuously identify and manage potential negative impacts of our products and operations, while amplifying the positive impacts.
Comments on sustainability data
In light of changes to EU regulations, it has been determined that Enea is not subject to the reporting requirements under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) as a result of the so-called Omnibus Directive. We have therefore drawn up our sustainability report in accordance with the previous wording of the Annual Accounts Act. For the time being, we have therefore chosen to structure our sustainability reporting based on the framework and principles of the Voluntary Sustainability Reporting Standard for non-listed SMEs (VSME), without claiming full compliance, pending further guidance from the EU.
In light of this, we also do not provide disclosures in accordance with the EU Taxonomy Regulation. Taxonomy reporting is closely linked to CSRD, and Enea's activities as a software company do not fall within the economic activities currently defined as taxonomy-relevant. Continued reporting in accordance with the Taxonomy Regulation is therefore not considered to provide a meaningful or accurate basis for decision-making for the company's stakeholders.
In 2025, Enea continued its collaboration with an external partner to strengthen the collection of sustainability data, ensure a more reliable data foundation and enable both improved assessment of the company's climate impact and increased transparency in reporting.
In cases where activity data was unavailable, calculations were performed using the expenditure-based method. During the year, we improved both the collection and calculation of sustainability data, particularly in the areas of external data centers, business travel and the purchase of goods and services. These improvements have affected the reporting of Scope 3 emissions. In accordance with the reporting principles, sustainability data for the company Enea Software Ltd (formerly Adaptive Mobile Security), which was acquired in 2021, has been included as of the 2022 reporting. The subsidiary Software Development Services was divested in 2022, and its sustainability data is therefore not included in the reporting for that year. Read more on pages 24-33.

Enea's software is used to connect, optimize and secure communications for leading mobile operators, service providers, cybersecurity and enterprise network providers, and government authorities worldwide.
Impacts, risks and opportunities
As a global software provider, our material IROs (impacts, risks and opportunities) arise mainly within our own operations, where we rely on a highly skilled workforce and on hardware and software resources for the development and delivery of our solutions. Relevant IROs are also identified in downstream operations, where our products play a key role in security, functionality and customer experience. See further under "Cybersecurity" on page 30 and "Responsible AI development" on page 31.
Part of our downstream operations involves the management of end-of-life IT equipment. Since our technical infrastructure - which includes data centers, servers and office hardware - is critical to delivering secure, reliable and efficient services, we strive to ensure a responsible and sustainable lifecycle approach for all equipment.
We also rely on IT equipment, software providers and cloud service providers in our upstream operations, which are essential to our delivery capabilities. A key aspect is ensuring a stable and sustainable electricity supply, particularly for our data centers and cloud services. To reduce our climate footprint and contribute to a more sustainable digital infrastructure, we focus on energy-efficient solutions and partnerships with suppliers who prioritize renewable energy. Through this, we contribute to a business model that is climate-smart and sustainable over the long term.
Collaboration and long-term sustainability
By working closely with employees, suppliers, partners and customers, we create the conditions to implement our sustainability strategy and maintain a sustainable business model over the long term. These dependencies, both upstream and downstream in the value chain, have been taken into account in the initial double materiality analysis, as well as in the evaluation of our working methods and performance.

Materiality analysis and material areas
The double materiality analysis and Enea's sustainability work
A dual materiality analysis was conducted in 2024, building on the previous year's analysis. The aim was to update our understanding of material impacts, risks and opportunities from a sustainability perspective. The analysis covered both our own operations and upstream and downstream segments of the value chain.
We have identified several areas where our operations have a material sustainability impact, including climate change, own workforce, business conduct, resource use and circular economy, workers in the value chain, consumers and
end-users, cybersecurity, and responsible AI. At the same time, some areas have been assessed as non-essential for us, such as pollution, water and marine resources, biodiversity and ecosystems, and affected communities.
Identified sustainability risks and opportunities As part of our double materiality assessment, we have identified relevant risks and opportunities related to our workforce, business conduct, consumers and end-users, cybersecurity and responsible AI.
The double materiality assessment process is an integral and ongoing part of our sustainability governance and forms the basis for our reporting structure.
During the year, we continued to prioritize efforts in the areas of business ethics, climate impact, occupational health and safety, and diversity and gender equality. These areas have been prioritized based on societal trends, the UN Sustainable Development Goals, market demands, relevant regulations and our ability to contribute to positive effects. Within each area, we report relevant key performance indicators and set targets.
Prioritized sustainability areas
Our four sustainability areas - Technology, People, Compliance and Environment - have been prioritized based on relevance to our stakeholders and impact on our business, risk profile and reputation.
Technology
We have always been at the forefront of technological development, where responsibility and security are crucial. The development of AI solutions focuses on responsible use, even as global regulations continue to evolve.
Cybersecurity is a key sustainability area for us. As an established player in the industry, we provide expertise to legislators and industry partnerships and play a vital role in identifying and addressing cyber threats on a global scale. This also places high demands on our own information security. We therefore work systematically to maintain a robust IT security environment and protect sensitive information.
People
The area "People" encompasses occupational health and safety, well-being and skills development, and is a key investment area with significant business impact for Enea. Diversity and inclusion are central to our social sustainability strategy.
An inclusive work environment promotes innovation, well-informed decision-making and increased business
resilience, while also fostering engagement and facilitating the ability to attract and retain talent. By ensuring equal opportunities, we contribute to sustainable and competitive business practices and promote human rights throughout the value chain.
Compliance
Corporate responsibility, including sound business ethics and anti-corruption measures, is a fundamental requirement for Enea. Supply chain management is another key sustainability area that, together with compliance and internal controls, contributes to a comprehensive perspective on our operations.
Environment
We have been measuring and reporting our climate impact since 2021. In the field of energy efficiency, we have both concrete targets for our own operations and products that can help reduce our customers' energy use.

EnvironmentClimate impact
In 2025, we continued our collaboration with an external partner to enhance the quality of our data and enable a more reliable assessment of the company's climate impact.
During the year, we also calculated our corporate carbon footprint for the second time. As we continue to develop our climate reporting, it is important to explain how carbon accounting works, which methods are used and what this means for comparing this year's results with those of the previous year.
Our emissions are currently calculated using a combination of activity-based and expenditure-based data. In several categories, the calculations are still largely based on the expenditure-based method, where emissions are estimated by multiplying financial expenditures - such as those for goods and services - by average emission factors for each category. This method is widely used and suitable in the early stages of carbon accounting, but it is less accurate than activity-based methods that rely on more specific data, such as energy consumption, kilometers driven or volumes of materials purchased. As our data quality improves, our ambition is to gradually increase the proportion of activity-based calculations and reduce our reliance on expenditure-based estimates.
We have expanded the scope of our reporting compared to last year. We now include more emission categories and collect more detailed information than before for many suppliers and activities. At the same time, certain high-emis-sion sources that were not previously reported have now been added, while some data points from last year have been refined, reclassified or excluded in cases where they did not meet methodological requirements. These changes in scope, data coverage and categorization are key reasons for the differences in reported emissions between years.
As 2025 is only our second calculation of the company's carbon footprint, these developments are a normal and expected part of building internal expertise, systems and processes for climate reporting. The current results should therefore be interpreted as part of a maturing reporting process rather than as an exact year-on-year comparison. In

ENEA'S TARGETS
the coming years, we aim to further improve data quality, increase the proportion of activity-based calculations and stabilize reporting thresholds. This will improve comparability between years and provide a more robust basis for tracking emission reductions over time.
The significant difference between the climate reporting for 2023 and 2024 is primarily explained by the fact that we previously only reported business travel and energy consumption for leased assets in Scope 3.
As a result of an identified calculation error and additional information that became available after the publication of the 2024 report, updated figures for Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions are presented below.
Key performance indicators for 2025 and 2024 include our entire organization. For 2023, the KPIs include operations in Austria, Canada, Croatia, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Japan, Malaysia, Romania, Singapore, South Africa, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States. For 2022, the KPIs include operations in Austria, Croatia, France, India, Ireland, Japan, Malaysia, Romania, Singapore, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States.

employee to contribute in a more effective, engaged and value-creating way.
In 2025, we also focused on developing a new job architecture in accordance with the EU Pay Transparency Directive.
The new structure aims to increase clarity regarding career paths, qualification requirements and pay principles, thereby strengthening transparency within the organization.
As part of this work, Enea ensures that all employees receive pay that meets or exceeds the applicable statutory minimum wage or the minimum wage under collective agreements in each country. The company complies with applicable legislation on equal treatment and equal pay, including requirements for pay surveys and analysis to identify and address any unwarranted pay disparities. Enea is monitoring developments regarding the EU Pay Transparency Directive and is preparing the organization for upcoming requirements for increased transparency and public reporting.
Employee survey
This year's employee survey revealed a strong and rising eNPS (Employee Net Promoter Score), indicating high engagement and a positive workplace experience. The results point to a clear sense of belonging, rooted in strong collaboration and supportive colleagues. The work culture is characterized by trust and accountability, with managers encouraging autonomy and initiative. Employees value good learning opportunities, skills development and continuous professional development. Motivation is fostered through recognition of a job well done, a positive collaborative environment, and clear work processes. Overall, Enea is perceived as an attractive workplace with meaningful assignments, a good work-life balance and an inclusive culture. All indicators are above the industry average.
New offices
We have moved to new office spaces in Bucharest, Dublin and Stockholm. The new work environments are designed to support collaboration, meetings and well-being in our daily work. Physical meeting spaces are an important part of our culture and contribute to knowledge sharing, collaboration and relationship building. The new offices thus represent a strategically important investment in a modern, sustainable and attractive workplace that strengthens both collaboration and the long-term development of the business.
Use of AI
Throughout the year, we have worked purposefully to strengthen the organization's ability to use AI in a responsible, effective and value-creating manner. Our focus has been on integrating AI as a natural support in our daily work, with the aim of increasing efficiency and creating space for innovation and creativity.
The initiative has included training programs, lunch seminars and the establishment of a network of AI ambassadors in areas such as finance, IT and HR. The ambassadors have contributed to the dissemination of knowledge and practical application of AI in their respective fields. We have also taken a significant step toward ensuring the structured and secure use of AI in RCD through the development and implementation of a specific framework for the procurement and use of AI solutions.
The aim was to increase the use of AI tools by 25 percent during the year. By the end of the year, the increase had reached 32 percent, indicating that the initiative had an impact and that AI is now a natural part of Enea's way of working.
Terms of employment and benefits
Enea complies with applicable collective agreements in countries where such agreements exist and applies local tax and terms of employment in all countries in which the company operates. Enea respects freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining in accordance with applicable national legislation. To support employee health and well-be-ing, we offer benefits that include health insurance, performance incentives and other social benefits that comply with local tax and employment regulations.
Enea also has an employee representative on the Board of Directors who participates in all board meetings and ensures that employees' perspectives and interests are taken into account when the company makes strategic decisions.

One key area is gender distribution, where we see a need for more balanced representation. Greater balance contributes to better decision-making, greater innovation capacity and stronger competitiveness over time. Our goal is to increase the proportion of female leaders and the proportion of women in the total workforce to 30 percent by 2030. Our baseline for comparison is 2022, when the proportion stood at 13 percent female leaders and 19 percent women in the organization.

Cybersecurity is a critical area for us from multiple perspectives and forms an integral part of both our business model and our value chain. It affects our operations, our relationship with customers and our societal impact. A systematic and responsible approach to cybersecurity contributes to positive outcomes for employees, customers and digital service users. At the same time, cybersecurity deficiencies can pose significant risks, including negative impacts on trust, business relationships and regulatory compliance.
To manage these risks and ensure long-term sustainable development, we engage in continuous work on governance, risk management and control, including in the downstream part of the value chain. The table below summarizes our identified impacts, risks and opportunities related to cybersecurity.
We are an active member of the GSMA Fraud C Security Group, which gives us the opportunity to contribute to the development of industry guidelines. These guidelines aim to help operators reduce their exposure to signaling attacks. Our software and analytics services are used by approximately 100 mobile networks globally and help protect billions of subscribers every day.

Responsible AI development
AI is transforming how we develop products, make decisions and manage risks. As AI becomes increasingly significant in the telecom and cybersecurity sectors, expectations from legislators, customers and other stakeholders regarding the responsible, transparent and controlled use of this technology are also increasing.
Through its use of AI, Enea aims to enhance the security, quality and efficiency of products and internal processes, while identifying and managing potential risks related to data protection, information security, bias and unintended consequences. Responsible AI practices are therefore essential for ensuring long-term trust and compliance with regulatory requirements.
Regulation of AI is evolving rapidly, with the EU's AI Act serving as a central framework that sets clear requirements for risk-based classification, governance, documentation and transparency. Regulatory expectations require companies that develop or use AI-based systems to demonstrate how risks are identified, prevented and monitored throughout the entire
lifecycle. We are closely monitoring the development of AI regulations and working to adapt internal processes, governance and guidelines in line with current and upcoming regulatory requirements.
As part of our efforts to ensure the responsible and safe use of AI, we have developed a framework for the procurement and use of AI solutions within the Group during the year. This framework was developed as part of our RCD activities but is designed for broad application across Enea.
The aim is to strengthen the governance of AI use and the management of related risks through clear principles for data protection, information security, human oversight, regulatory compliance and data integrity. The framework contributes to the structured and controlled use of AI in our operations and in relevant parts of the value chain. The implementation of the framework, together with procurement conducted in accordance with its principles, strengthens our ability to ensure the safe and structured use of AI. Enea's data and source code are and will remain fully owned and controlled by the company.
Enea's future AI objectives
Improve products and customer experiences
We intend to further develop our products with AI-driven features that contribute to increased quality, reliability and user value, in line with applicable requirements for security and responsible use.
Optimize business processes
We are working to implement
AI-based solutions to streamline internal processes, increase the level of automation and improve resource utilization, while ensuring governance, control and regulatory compliance.
Sustainable and responsible AI practices
Enea aims to establish a structured, long-term AI initiative that strengthens internal expertise and ensures that AI usage complies with the EU's AI Act and other applicable regulations. This includes guidelines on
AI-driven decision-making, risk management, data protection and monitoring.

infrastructure globally and support the development of the telecom sector, particularly where the need for stable and secure communication is greatest. At the same time, we are aware that our products, while fulfilling important functions such as security, child protection, revenue protection and improved network performance, could potentially be misused. This may involve excessive surveillance of groups or individuals or restrictions on access to information.
Many countries are enacting laws and regulations to address societal and security risks, such as those linked to terrorism or the spread of disinformation. How these issues are addressed varies greatly between countries and often changes in line with political developments, creating a dynamic and complex environment for our business.
We have a framework for assessing the human rights impact of our products and conduct Human Rights Impact Assessments (HRIAs) for all products with features that could be overused or misused in a way that affects rights such as freedom of expression, freedom of information, privacy, freedom of movement, freedom of assembly and freedom of religion.
In 2025, Enea did not donate money to political parties or engage in any lobbying or political advocacy. As part of our commitment to responsibility, we actively work to identify, assess and mitigate risks associated with our products. We do this through measures such as limiting functionality where possible, enabling remote monitoring and deactivation and setting clear usage requirements in our commercial agreements.
We use independent rating data to assess whether the benefits of improved communication outweigh any residual risks, thereby ensuring that business decisions are well-found-ed. To ensure proper use, our internal procedures require that all potentially sensitive transactions, regardless of value, be screened based on use case, customer and country of distribution, and approved by the Deal Committee, which consists of the entire Executive Leadership Team.
A clear and controlled sales process ensures that our business
opportunities undergo the necessary risk and compliance assessment. During the year, only a small number of transactions required screening by the Deal Committee, reflecting the thorough preparation and quality assurance prior to deci-
sion-making. Enea also generally refrains from doing business in a number of countries that are deemed to pose an excessively high risk.
Whistleblowing process and whistleblowing portal As part of our commitment to ethical business practices, Enea has a whistleblowing process to ensure transparency and accountability. The process is part of our efforts to foster a responsible and sustainable corporate culture and provides employees and other individuals covered by applicable whistleblower legislation with the opportunity to anonymously report suspected misconduct, including human rights violations, discrimination, misconduct or other actions inconsistent with the company's values and ethical principles.
To ensure objectivity and anonymity, all reports are handled through a secure whistleblowing portal administered by an independent third party. Incoming reports are dealt with confidentially and followed up by responsible individuals in senior management, in accordance with applicable legislation.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
Guidelines for remuneration to senior executives Guidelines for remuneration to senior executives are presented in Note 4. A remuneration report will be prepared and presented at the Annual General Meeting. It describes how the guidelines have been applied during 2025. No deviations from the guidelines have been made and no departures have been made from the decision-making process that, according to the guidelines, shall be applied to determine remuneration.
Sustainability Report
A sustainability report, which has been reviewed by the Company's auditors, has been prepared (see pages 22-33).
Dividend policy
Enea's ambition is to build a larger and stronger company that delivers increasing value for customers, employees and shareholders.
Acquisitions that strengthen the company's market position and long-term earnings capacity, as well as continued investments in the company's own product portfolio, are important parts of this endeavor.
To enable and be well equipped for acquisitions, Enea needs to have a strong and flexible capital structure. This may sometimes mean that the company is net leveraged. Therefore, the Board of Directors also needs to take into account the company's long-term investment needs as well as its financial position when considering dividends. During the year, Enea acquired 933,470 of its own ordinary shares for a total of SEK 75.5 million.
Enea's long-term dividend policy is that at least 30 percent of profit after tax shall be distributed to shareholders.
However, consideration shall be given to the company's financial position, cash flow, acquisition opportunities and prospects. Given the company's acquisition opportunities and growth strategy for the coming years, the Board of Directors does not propose a dividend for 2025.
Proposed appropriation of profits
The following funds are at the Parent Company's disposal (SEK):
Share premium reserve Retained earnings Profit for the year | 562,748,745 58,373,239 -17,056,229 |
Total | 604,065,755 |
The Board of Directors proposes that the available funds be carried forward, resulting in a total of SEK 604,065,755 to be carried forward.

RISKS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
Introduction
Enea is exposed to a range of risks that could affect the Group's results. The Company continuously identifies and manages these risks. Those assessed as most significant are described in the table on the following pages and are divided into the categories of operational and financial risks.
Enea mainly operates in telecom and cybersecurity. Prevailing global uncertainties-such as the war in Ukraine, energy
prices, inflation, interest rates and broader geopolitical tensions-affect some customers' risk appetite and willingness to invest. For Enea, this may mean that projects are delayed or not implemented. At the same time, the underlying drivers of the telecom industry remain, including continued focus on security, virtualization, 5G and increased network capacity.

Operational Risks
Comment | Exposure | |
Global economic Enea is dependent on growth in mobile conditions communications, economic development and the growth of its largest customers. Most of the revenue comes from customers in the telecom industry, which means that the macroeconomic risks are linked not only to the general economy but also to the development of the telecom industry. If customers' financial ability to invest decreases, it may have a negative impact on the Company's operations and financial position. | A weakening economy mainly results in reduced willingness among customers to invest, which can lead to lower volumes and difficulties in signing new contracts for Enea's products and services. A weakening economy may also affect customers' sales, which in turn has a negative impact on the part of Enea's revenue that depends on volume or capacity utilization. | Telecom operators 54% Enterprises 21% Telecom suppliers 18% Other 7% |
Customer and Enea's customers mainly consist of large contract mobile operators and system suppliers in structure communication and security. A significant share of the revenue comes from a limited number of key customers. Enea's revenue mainly consists of license revenue, maintenance and support revenue and services. Enea is dependent on customers' continued investments in capacity, efficiency and new technology. Revenue is partially volume dependent and fluctuates with customers' production volumes. | License revenue consists of both one-time revenue and recurring revenue. The initial customer agreements are normally valid for a period of three to five years. Agreements with capacity limitations, as well as maintenance and support services, are continuously extended. Prices are generally fixed during the contract period. Revenue varies between quarters and financial years depending on when major agreements are signed and deliveries made. | In 2025, 34 percent (42) of the Company's revenue was generated by the ten largest customers. Recurring revenue accounts for approximately two-thirds of Enea's total revenue. 100% 80% 60% 40% 20% 0% Professional services Support C maintenance services License revenue |
Products and Enea's business strategy is based on technology developing new products and improving existing solutions, which entails significant investments. | Investments are directed toward markets with potential for growth and future profitability and are made following careful analysis. Priority is given to cloud-based products focused on data management, security, mobile video traffic and 5G. The Company expects a continued decline in sales within Operating Systems, driven by key customers increasing their use of open-source code in system solutions. | At the end of the year, capitalized product development expenses amounted to SEK 221.3 million (232.8).

Skills manage- Enea's success largely depends on the ment Company's ability to recruit, develop and retain qualified employees. | There is strong competition for skilled professionals in the IT and telecom industries. | The turnover rate for the Group as a whole amounted to 7.7 percent (7.8) during the year. |
Product Enea's products are important components in liability, customers' solutions, and inaccuracies could intellectual lead to deteriorated customer relations and property claims for damages. There is also a risk that rights and Enea's intellectual property rights may be litigation infringed or that Enea's products infringe on the intellectual property rights of other companies. | Enea is insured against claims for damages and assesses that the Company has sufficient protection and that the risk of damages is limited. Enea also has insurance coverage should the Company's products infringe on another party's patent or copyright. Enea continuously engages legal experts to protect its intellectual property rights and reduce the risk of infringement. | Regarding litigation, court proceedings, interpretation of local legislation or arbitration, Enea AB or its subsidiaries are currently involved in a small number of disputes. The Company's assessment is that none of these ongoing disputes have a negative impact on the Company's financial position, and no provision has been made for a negative outcome. Disputes regarding contract applications or a court ruling with an unfavorable outcome for the company could negatively affect the company's financial position. |
Acquisitions Through carefully selected acquisitions and and divestments, Enea has established a position divestments as a software supplier to telecom operators and system suppliers. The Company depends on these acquisitions continuing to develop in line with the assumptions regarding growth and market position made at the time of each acquisition. | The execution of acquisitions always involves a risk. The acquired company's relationships with customers, suppliers and key personnel may be negatively affected. There is also a risk that integration processes may prove more costly or time-consuming than expected and that anticipated synergies may be partially or entirely unrealized. | Acquired intangible assets at the end of 2025 amounted to SEK 1,451.6 million (1,638.9); see Note 10 for further details. |
Financial Risks
Comment | Exposure | |
Currency Currency risk means that the value of financial assets and liabilities can vary due to changes in exchange rates. | Enea is an international company, and the majority of its sales revenue is received in U.S. dollars and euro. The business is mainly conducted in foreign subsidiaries where income and expenses are denominated in local currency. | During the year, a total of EUR 0 million (0) was hedged. There were no outstanding derivatives at the end of 2025. If the Swedish krona had strengthened or weakened by 10 percent on average in relation to the U.S. dollar, with all other variables constant, the year's revenue would have been SEK 53 million lower or higher. The corresponding effect against the euro is SEK 24 million. |
Liquidity Liquidity risk refers to the risk of not being able to meet payment obligations without the cost of obtaining liquidity increasing significantly. Funding risk, refinancing risk and market liquidity risk are subcomponents of liquidity risk. | Since December 2024, Enea has had a new facility agreement with a fixed term of EUR 25 million and a revolving credit facility of SEK 150 million with DNB Bank ASA. | The loan of EUR 25 million, with a fixed term of three years, will be amortized by 50 percent until its maturity date and repaid in full in December 2027. Available cash and unused credit facilities at the end of 2025 amounted to SEK 156 million. |
Interest Interest rate risk means that the value of rates financial instruments can vary due to changes in market interest rates. | Enea's interest payments mainly occur quarterly. The margin that the Company pays in addition to the underlying market interest rate is determined by predefined performance measures. | At the end of 2025, the utilized financial facilities amounted to SEK 306 million. If the underlying policy rate changes by 1 percent on average, with all other variables constant, the interest expense would increase or decrease by SEK 3 million. |

RISKS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
Comment | Exposure | |
Capital The Group's objective for capital management management is to maintain a stable financial position that secures the Group's ability to continue operations and generate returns for shareholders while benefiting other stakeholders. | This is achieved by maintaining an optimal capital structure that keeps both costs and capital requirements low. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may decide on dividends to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce liabilities. | The Group assesses its capital based on net debt, which at the end of 2025 amounted to SEK 208 million. Net debt is defined as interest-bearing liabilities (SEK 306 million) less cash and cash equiva- lents (SEK 98 million). Under the terms of the main loan facilities, the Group is required to meet customary financial loan covenants such as EBITDA/ Net debt and EBITDA/Net financial expenses. The Group met the loan terms throughout the period. There are no indications that Enea will have difficulties complying with the covenants when next tested at the end of the first quarter 2026. The Group has no stated target for the debt/equity ratio, which is continuously adjusted according to the needs of the business. The Board of Directors proposes no dividend for 2025. |
Credit risk Credit risk means that a party in a financial transaction may be unable to fulfill an obligation. The main credit risk for Enea is outstanding accounts receivable as well as accrued uninvoiced service assignments (contract assets). | The Company's customers are mainly international or locally well-established companies that have historically demonstrated good payment capability. Customers are distributed across several countries and markets where differences in payment patterns and currency restrictions occur. | During the year, SEK 1.2 million (11.2) was reserved for doubtful accounts receiv- able, see Note 12 for more information. For information on the model applied for managing expected credit losses, see Note 1 and Note 12. During the year, the result was affected by a write-down of contract assets of SEK 0 million (0.9) as a result of a terminated project. |
Climate change Climate change refers to long-term changes in the climate that can affect economic activity through physical risks, transition risks during sustainable transformation and changing regulatory requirements. | Enea's operations are not materially affected by climate change. Enea identifies risks that may affect the Company financially or strategically in the short and long term, as well as the Company's ability to deliver products and services to customers. Enea has evaluated and assessed risks linked to climate change. These risks include transition, reputation, bodily injury, material damage, supply chains and commitments to customers. | The conclusion is that the Company is currently not affected by risks in any of these areas. |
