Eutelsat S.A.Period from July 1 to December 31, 2025
Statutory auditors' review report on the condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements
To the Chief Executive Officer,
In our capacity as statutory auditors of Eutelsat S.A. and in accordance with your request, we have performed a review of the accompanying condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements (the "Financial Information") of Eutelsat S.A. for the period from July 1 to December 31, 2025.
Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this Financial Information in accordance with IAS 34 - a standard of IFRS as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial information. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this Financial Information based on our review.
Scope of Review
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, which applies to a review of historical financial information performed by the independent auditor of the Entity. A review of Financial Information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Financial Information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 - a standard of IFRS as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial information.
This report is governed by, and construed in accordance with French law. The courts of France shall have exclusive jurisdiction in relation to any claim or dispute concerning the engagement letter or this report, and any matter arising therefrom. Each party irrevocably waives any right it may have to object to an action being brought in any of those courts, to claim that the action has been brought in an inconvenient forum or to claim that those courts do not have jurisdiction.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 GENERAL OVERVIEW
BUSINESS
With capacity operated on 34 satellites, the Eutelsat S.A. Group is an industry leader in fixed satellite services. It mainly operates and provides capacity for Video Services, Fixed Data and Government Services, and capacity in Connectivity applications (Fixed Broadband and Mobile Connectivity). Through its satellite fleet, the Eutelsat S.A. Group is able to serve the entire European continent, the Middle East and North Africa, as well as sub-Saharan Africa, a significant proportion of the Asian continents and the Americas.
DURATION OF THE FISCAL YEAR
The fiscal year runs for a period of 12 months from July 1 to June 30.
APPROVAL OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The condensed consolidated half-year financial statements as of December 31, 2025 have been established under the responsibility of the Board of Directors, which approved them at its meeting of February 12, 2026.
NOTE 2 KEY EVENTS DURING THE FISCAL YEAR
AUTHORIZATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH
THE AGREEMENT TO SELL PASSIVE GROUND SEGMENT INFRASTRUCTURE ASSETS
On January 29, 2026, the Group was notified that the French government had not approved the sale of the ground segment infrastructure assets to EQT. As a result, the assets and liabilities initially identified as falling within the scope of this transaction are no longer classified as assets and liabilities held for sale as of December 31, 2025. No penalty or compensation is payable, as the regulator's approval was a condition precedent to the completion of the initially proposed transaction.
OTHER KEY EVENT
On January 30, 2026, the Group signed an agreement with Thales Alenia Space France relating to the early termination of an agreement signed in October 2022 covering the supply of the E113WX satellite. Under this agreement, the Group will receive compensation of 15.8 million euros. Following the signature of this agreement, the Group recognized an impairment charge of
66.9 million euros in respect of the related assets as of December 31, 2025.
NOTE 3 ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND VALUATION METHODS
BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025 are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" in a condensed format. The notes must therefore be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.
The accounting principles applied in preparing the consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2025 comply with international financial reporting standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union and the standards published by the IASB.
The accounting principles applied since July 1, 2025 are the same as those described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements published for the period ended June 30, 2025.
The Group has not applied any standards or amendments in advance of their mandatory implementation date.
FINANCIAL REPORTING RULES
Conversion of financial statements and transactions in foreign currencies
The reference currency and the presentation currency used to prepare the financial statements is the euro. The subsidiaries located outside the euro zone maintain their accounting records in
the currency that is most representative of their respective economic environments. Balance sheet items are translated into euros using the closing-rate method. Income statement items are converted at the average exchange rate for the period. Balance sheet and income statement translation adjustments arising from exchange rate fluctuations are recorded as translation adjustments under shareholders' equity. The Group does not consolidate any significant entities whose functional currency is that of a hyperinflationary economy.
Foreign exchange gains and losses arising from these transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities at the closing date exchange rate are shown under the foreign exchange result. Foreign exchange gains and losses arising from these transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities at the closing date exchange rate are shown under the foreign exchange result.
Foreign exchange gains and losses arising from the translation of capitalizable advances made to foreign subsidiaries and forming part of the net investment in the consolidated subsidiary are recognized directly as a translation adjustment within shareholders' equity.
The main foreign currency used is the U.S. dollar. The closing exchange rate used is 1.1757 U.S. dollars for 1 euro and the average exchange rate for the period is 1.1563 U.S. dollars for 1 euro.
Reporting of current and non-current assets and liabilities
Current assets and liabilities are those that the Group is looking to realize, use or settle during its normal operating cycle, which is less than 12 months. All the others are non-current assets and liabilities.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
Estimates and judgements are used in the financial statements and accompanying notes that are likely to affect the valuation of certain assets, liabilities, income, and expenses. These estimates and judgements are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events likely to have a financial impact on the entity. Owing to the intrinsic uncertainty surrounding estimates, the actual results could differ from these estimates.
In preparing the condensed consolidated half-year financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2025, the management has exercised its judgement, particularly with regard to the recoverable amounts of assets, the recognition of revenues, the estimation of provisions and contingent liabilities assessment, the recognition of tax assets and liabilities and the assessment of customer risk.
SEASONALITY
The Eutelsat Group's business is not subject to material seasonal variations.
MAIN CHANGES IN THE CONSOLIDATION SCOPE
In the first half of the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2025, the Group incorporated a number of new legal entities to be used in the sale of its passive ground segment infrastructure assets, which was ultimately cancelled (see paragraph 2.1).
NOTE 4 SEGMENT INFORMATION
In accordance with IFRS 8 "Operating Segments", the segment information set out below has been prepared based on internal financial management data provided to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, jointly referred to as the CODM ("Chief Operating Decision Maker"), who are responsible for allocating financial resources.
The Group has always considered that it has one single overall business involving the supply of fully integrated connectivity services worldwide for video, business and broadband networks, and mobile services mainly to international telecommunications operators and broadcasters, corporate network integrators and companies for their own needs.
The takeover of OneWeb in September 2023 has not altered this assessment, as the Group considers that the most relevant criterion in analyzing its business is the assessment of the services rendered and the nature of the associated risks, rather than their purpose.
The tracked performance indicators are:
Revenues;
Adjusted EBITDA;
Gross Capex which covers the acquisition of satellites and other tangible or intangible assets as well as payments related to lease liabilities.

OPERATING EXPENSES
The operating expenses of 60.4 million euros mainly include staff costs and other costs associated with controlling and operating the satellites, in addition to satellite in-orbit insurance premiums, compared with 58.8 million euros as of December 31, 2024.
The selling, general and administrative expenses of 108,3 million euros are mainly made up of costs for administrative and commercial staff, all marketing and advertising expenses and the related overheads as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, they stood at 111.3 million euros.
The operating expenses relating to impairment losses on trade receivables and assets associated with customer contracts amount to 6.5 million euros as of December 31, 2025 (against 6,9 million euros for the half year ended December 31, 2024).
Depreciation expense was 199.3 million euros as of December 31, 2025, i.e. a fall of 26.3 million euros, mainly due to the impact of assets fully amortized at the previous balance sheet for 9 million euros and the impact of assets depreciated at the previous balance sheet date for 10.6 million euros.

The interest expense as of December 31, 2025 has increased in line with the change in interest rates over the period.
The amount of capitalized interest depends on the state of progress and number of satellite construction programs recorded during the relevant fiscal year. The interest rate used to determine the amount of interest expense eligible for capitalization is 4.25% as of December 31, 2025 versus 4.84% as of December 31, 2024.
Financial income was 47.9 million euros as of December 31, 2025, up from 14.5 million euros and mainly comprises interest on current accounts with OneWeb for 42 million euros as of December 31, 2025, versus 9.8 million euros as of December 31, 2024.
The change in derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 2025 corresponds to the cost of hedging settled financial instruments for -3.5 million euros. As of December 31, 2024, this entry mainly included the change in the market value of currency hedging instruments for -21.3 million euros. The change in mark-to market currency hedging instruments is, as of December 31, 2025, now included in foreign-exchange impact, for -23.3 million euros.
INCOME TAX
The "Total income tax expense" line includes the current and deferred taxes of the consolidated companies. In accordance with IAS 34, the interim tax expense on December 31 is calculated by applying the average annual effective income tax rate estimated for the fiscal year to the pre-tax income for the interim period.
As of December 31, 2025, the effective income tax rate was 17.0% (versus -18.2% as of December 31, 2024). This rate includes the effect of the non-recognition of deferred tax assets on French tax losses in the current fiscal year, the net impact of the exoneration mechanism for the proportion of Eutelsat S.A.'s profit attributable to the company's satellites operated outside France (Article 247 of the French General Tax Code introduced by the 2019 Finance Bill), as well as the impacts of the impairment of the E113WX satellite.

AT2, Express AM6, Express 36C and Astra 2G leases. The terms of these leases cover the expected life spans of this type of satellite and, as such, none of these contracts include purchase options upon termination of the contract. No renewal options have been considered to determine the term of the leases.
Fixed asset value tests
Goodwill
The Group's goodwill results from the acquisitions linked to the geostationary satellite operations. This goodwill is thus monitored at Eutelsat's operational segment level on the basis of the cash flows from geostationary satellite operations.
At the end of December 2025, as part of the preparation of its half-year financial statements, the Group looked for indicators of impairment by applying scenarios involving adverse assumptions.
On this basis, the Group took the view that there were no indicators of impairment related to its geostationary satellite operations.
As a result, the Group did not carry out any impairment tests based on the assets and recoverable value of the geostationary satellite operations.
At the end of December 2025, as part of the preparation of its half-year financial statements, the Group identified indicators of impairment affecting a limited number of sensitive geostationary orbital positions. As a result, impairment tests were carried out on the geostationary orbital position CGUs as of December 31, 2025 based on the cash flows set out in the most recent five-year plan approved by the Board of Directors on February 13, 2025, applying adverse assumptions in terms of revenue.
As of December 31, 2025, no impairment change was recognized on the geostationary satellites. As of December 31, 2024, the impairment charge on the geostationary satellites was 177 million euros. However, a number of satellites, with a net carrying value of
782.3 million euros as of December 31, 2025, has limited headroom, meaning that impairment tests are very sensitive to any downward revision in assumptions.
It should be noted that the Group recognized an impairment charge of work in progress relating to the E113WX satellite of 66.9 million euros as of December 31, 2025 (see paragraph 2.2).
Purchase commitments
In addition to the items recognized on the balance sheet, the Company has entered into commitments with suppliers for the acquisition of fixed assets (satellites and other assets) and the provision of services amounting to a total of 140.7 million euros as
of December 31, 2025 and 261.9 million euros as of December, 31
2024.

All Eutelsat S.A.'s financial debt is denominated in euros. The term loan and structured debt (intended to finance Capex) are subject to a financial covenant which initially stipulated a ratio of total net debt to EBITDA of less than or equal to 4.0:1.
Under the term loan covenants, each lender may request early repayment of all amounts due in the event of a change of control of Eutelsat S.A. or Eutelsat Communications.
The bonds are also subject to a banking covenant under which each lender may request early repayment of all amounts due in the event of a change of control of Eutelsat S.A. or Eutelsat Communications accompanied by a downgrade in Eutelsat S.A.'s credit rating.
As of December 31, 2025, the Group is in compliance with all the banking covenants.
The credit agreements include neither a guarantee by the Group nor a pledge of assets in favor of the lenders, but do contain restrictive clauses (subject to the usual exceptions provided for in this type of loan agreement) which limit the ability of Eutelsat Communications and its subsidiaries, including Eutelsat SA, in particular to grant liens on a borrower's assets, incur additional debt, dispose of assets, enter into mergers or acquisitions, sales of assets and finance lease transactions (except those carried out within the Group and expressly provided for in the loan agreement) and modify the nature of the business of the Company and its subsidiaries.
The credit arrangements include a commitment to maintain "launch-plus-one-year" insurance policies for any satellite located at 13° East and, for any other satellites, a commitment not to have more than one satellite that is not covered by a launch insurance policy.
In addition, as of December 31, 2025, the Group had active credit lines for an aggregate undrawn amount of 450.0 million euros
(450 million euros as of June 30, 2025). These credit lines are subject to banking covenants that are similar to those in place for the term loan and the structured debt.

ASSETS AND LIABILITIES HELD FOR SALE
Assets held for sale
Since the assets and liabilities initially identified as falling within the scope of the sale of the passive ground segment infrastructure assets no longer met the definition of assets and liabilities held for sale as of December 31, 2025, following the abandonment of the project (see paragraph 2.1), they were reintegrated into the various categories of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet.

Litigation and contingent liabilities
The Group is involved in legal proceedings and commercial disputes in connection with its business activities. The Group exercises its judgment when assessing the risks involved, on a case-by-case basis, and establishes provisions where it considers that an outflow of resources is likely. No provisions are established for claims considered to be baseless or unsubstantiated.
The company Eutelsat S.A. has been the subject of several accounting verification procedures in respect of the period between July 1, 2012 and June 30, 2020, which resulted in litigation.
NOTE 7 RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Accordingly, in February 2024 the Group filed a petition with the Administrative Court for a tax reassessment in respect of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.
The proceedings are under way and the amounts involved have been paid in full to the French Treasury.
In addition, in January 2025 the Group filed a contentious claim with the French tax authorities concerning a tax reassessment maintained for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. The amounts due in respect of this reassessment have been paid in full to the French Treasury. As such, there is no related tax risk, as the claims concern amounts already paid.
During the half year there were no related-party transactions that were different in nature from those realized in the fiscal year ended December, 31 2025.
