IFRS differs in certain significant respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the US. In this sense, certain information presented in this report has not been prepared in accordance with IFRS or any other accounting standards and also contains alternative performance measures (" APM ") as defined in the Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures published by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) on October 5, 20151. As used in this report, this information includes "EBITDA", which represents operating profit before amortization, impairment and depreciation. This report also contains other measures such as: cash, cash equivalent and current financial assets, total financial debt and net financial debt, growth at constant exchange rates, and capex split by categories. We present these non-IFRS measures because we believe those indicators and similar measures are widely used by certain investors, securities analysts and other interested parties as supplemental measures of performance and liquidity. In particular, we believe that EBITDA is meaningful for investors because it provides an analysis of our operating results, profitability and ability to service debt and because EBITDA is used by our chief operating decision makers to track our business evolution, establish operational and strategic targets and make important business decisions. To facilitate the analysis of our operations, this indicator excludes amortization, impairment and depreciation expenses from operating profit in order to eliminate the impact of general long-term capital investment. Although we are presenting this measure to enhance the understanding of our historical operating performance, EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to operating profit as an indicator of our operating performance, or an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Growth at constant exchange rates is a numerical translation of our figures from local currencies to euros, and not a description of the situation if the currencies had not moved, as this could have had some other implications on the economy and our business situation and contracts. Capex split in categories is a management judgement, and should not be considered as a substitute for additions of tangible and intangible assets, nor depreciation and amortization. The presentation of these measures is not intended to and does not comply with the reporting requirements of the SEC; compliance with its requirements would require us to make changes to the presentation of this information. Rounding adjustments have been made in calculating some of the financial information included in this report. Figures shown as totals in some tables and elsewhere may not be exact arithmetic aggregations of the figures that precede them. ‌1 In this regard, a breakdown of the explanations, definitions and reconciliations of the APMs used in this report can be found, as applicable, in Note 4.6. of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Gestamp Group as of December 31, 2024, in the relevant results presentation and also in this report, all of them available both on Gestamp's corporate website ( https://gestamp.com/Investors-Shareholders/Economic-Financial-information ) and on the website of the National Securities Market Commission (Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores) ( https://www.cnmv.es ). ‌Industry data In this report, we may rely on and refer to information regarding our business and the market in which we operate and compete in. We have obtained this information from various third party sources, including providers of industry data, discussions with our customers and our own internal estimates. We cannot assure that any of this information is accurate or correctly reflects our position in the industry, and none of our internal surveys or information has been verified by any independent sources. We do not make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any such information set forth in this report. ‌Forward looking statements and other qualifications The following discussion and analysis is based on and should be read in conjunction with our historical financials included elsewhere in this quarterly report. Certain capitalized terms used herein have the meaning set out in the offering memorandum for our senior secured notes as of September 30, 2025. The discussion includes forward looking statements, which, although based on assumptions that we consider reasonable, are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual events or conditions to differ materially from those implied herein. Please be cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward looking statements. These forward statements are made as of the date of this report and are not intended to give any assurance as to future results. ‌BUSINESS PERFORMANCE UPDATE According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF World Economic Outlook (WEO) as of October 2025), global GDP growth will stand at +3.2% year-on-year (YoY) in 2025 (+0.2 percentage points above the projections in the July 2025 WEO report, which were 3.0% year-on-year). For 2026, the IMF maintains its global GDP growth forecast unchanged at +3.1% year-on-year. However, this forecast remains subject to a high degree of uncertainty, conditioned by geopolitical tensions and ongoing trade negotiations that have led to adjustments in supply chains. Although the tariff impact has been less than initially anticipated-thanks to bilateral agreements and certain trade policy rethinking-the IMF warns that the global economy continues to show signs of fragility. In particular, the threat of a further escalation in the trade war between the US and China poses a significant risk to global activity. While progress has been made with countries such as Vietnam, Indonesia, China, and the United Kingdom, negotiations with key partners are still ongoing. This fragmentation in agreements and the possibility of new tariffs maintain a volatile environment, making it difficult to develop robust economic projections. The IMF notes that, if protectionist measures intensify, international trade could face one of the most restrictive scenarios in recent decades. In the automotive sector, S&P Global Mobility (formerly IHS) forecasts that production volumes for the year will increase by +2.0% to 91.4 million vehicles (S&P geographies as of October 2025), up (+2.1%) from the 89.5 million vehicles for 2025 estimated in February. Initially, following the announcement of reciprocal tariffs by the United States on April 2, known as "Liberation Day," S&P Global Mobility revised its production volume estimate for the year to 87.9 million vehicles in its April update, representing a decrease of -1.6 million vehicles or -1.8% compared to the 89.5 million vehicles estimated at the beginning of the year. However, following developments in negotiations between the various countries involved and the possibility of a smaller impact than initially expected, the next six updates (for May, June, July, August, September, and October) have been upward, finally estimating 91.4 million vehicles, thus recovering the April cut and even estimating +1.9 million more vehicles for the year, or +2.1% compared to the February estimate at the beginning of the year. During the first nine months of 2025, the automotive sector experienced a year-on-year increase in production volumes in Gestamp's footprint of +4.3% (according to S&P as of October 2025). This increase is explained by Asia and Mercosur, which performed positively during the period with year-on-year growth of +8.1% and +4.6%, respectively. In contrast, the regions that experienced a decline in volumes were Western Europe (-2.6% year-on-year), NAFTA (-1.0% year-on-year), and Eastern Europe (-0.6% year-on-year). In this context, Gestamp's revenues in the first nine months decreased by 4.9% year-on-year to €8,486.0 million, which includes a contribution of €394.6 million from Gescrap. Revenues from the Auto business (excluding Gescrap) decreased by 4.7% year-on-year, mainly due to the negative impact of exchange rates and the drop in production volumes in Western Europe and, to a lesser extent, in NAFTA and Eastern Europe. On a constant currency basis, this growth implies an underperformance of -5.1 percentage points (compared to Gestamp's footprint -IHS data as of October 2025), or -1.3 percentage points on a weighted basis. In terms of profitability, EBITDA in absolute terms decreased by 1.1% year-on-year in the first nine months of 2025, reaching €925.1 million. In terms of EBITDA margin, the Auto business reached 11.0% (or 11.2% if we exclude the €12.2 million in costs related to the Phoenix Plan), in line with the target for the year despite the volatility of volumes and uncertainty in the sector. As for Gescrap, the EBITDA margin in the first nine months of 2025 reached 7.9%. Looking ahead to the end of 2025, few changes are expected in the current market context. In this context, Gestamp has made a slight adjustment to its targets for 2025. For the Auto business, it expects: i) underperform market growth and ii) a slight improvement in profitability compared to the end of 2024 (11.0% reported EBITDA margin). In the Gescrap business, it expects to close at lower levels than in 2024 given the fall in prices resulting from weak demand, which is particularly affecting Europe. Finally, the following is expected: i) free cash flow generation in line with 2024 (€134m excluding the impact of Phoenix) and ii) an improvement in the group's closing leverage ratio in 2024 (1.6x net debt to EBITDA, also adjusted for the impact of Phoenix) thanks to organic cash generation and driven by the partial sale of real estate assets in Spain announced in the H1 2025 results. Achieving these objectives means consolidating the financial and market position for another year in a difficult market environment. ‌FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE FOR THE PERIOD Third Quarter 2024 2025 % Change Consolidated Income Statement Data (Millions of Euros) Operating income 2,828.5 2,709.2 -4.2% Revenue 2,787.3 2,642.1 -5.2% Other operating income 33.8 51.6 52.7% Changes in inventories 7.4 15.5 109.5% Operating expenses -2,534.9 -2,425.3 -4.3% Raw materials and other consumables -1,728.9 -1,647.4 -4.7% Personnel expenses -455.9 -451.7 -0.9% Other operating expenses -350.1 -326.2 -6.8% EBITDA 293.6 283.9 -3.3% Depreciation, amortization and impairment losses -173.4 -170.7 -1.6% Operating profit 120.2 113.2 -5.8% Finance income 6.5 7.8 20.0% Finance expenses -54.5 -58.5 7.3% Exchange gains (losses) -20.9 -5.0 -76.1% Other 5.4 7.1 31.5% Profit from continuing operations 56.7 64.6 13.9% Income tax expense -15.4 -15.9 3.2% Profit for the period 41.3 48.7 17.9% Profit (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests -20.4 -18.8 -7.8% Profit attributable to equity holders of the parent 20.9 29.9 43.1% YTD September 30, 2024 2025 % Change (Millions of Euros) 9,084.6 8,629.3 -5.0% 8,926.8 8,486.0 -4.9% 115.0 130.7 13.7% 42.8 12.6 -70.6% -8,149.1 -7,704.2 -5.5% -5,633.3 -5,269.6 -6.5% -1,461.0 -1,443.4 -1.2% -1,054.8 -991.2 -6.0% 935.5 925.1 -1.1% -530.1 -526.3 -0.7% 405.4 398.8 -1.6% 18.2 21.8 19.8% -164.8 -164.9 0.1% -33.8 -45.2 33.7% 24.3 6.2 -74.5% 249.3 216.7 -13.1% -59.7 -49.6 -16.9% 189.6 167.1 -11.9% -62.8 -62.6 -0.3% 126.8 104.5 -17.6% ‌Revenues During the third quarter of 2025, revenues reached €2,642.1 million, of which Body-in-White and Chassis represented €2,163.7 million, Mechanisms €285.6 million, Gescrap €113.6 million and Tooling and others €79.2 million. Revenues in the third quarter of 2025 decreased by €145.2 million or -5.2% to €2,642,1 million versus €2,787.3 million in the third quarter of 2024 mainly due to the negative impact of exchange rates.

This decrease is in line with the decrease in revenues taking into account the specific weight of raw materials in total revenues. Personnel expenses .

Depreciation, amortization and impairment losses . Depreciation expense decreased by €2.7 million, or -1.6%, to €170.7 million in the third quarter of 2025 versus €173.4 million in the same period in 2024 mainly due to the the extension of the useful life of certain assets carried out during fiscal year 2025. ‌Operating result The operating result reached €113.2 million in the third quarter of 2025 versus €120.2 million for the same period in 2024, representing a decrease of €7.0 million. This decrease was mainly due to lower EBITDA. ‌Financial result Net financial expenses for the third quarter of 2025 increased by €2.7 million, to €50.7 million versus €48.0 million for the same period in 2024. ‌Exchange differences Exchange gains amounted to €5.0 million in the third quarter of 2025 versus losses of €20.9 million for the same period in 2024. Exchange gains in the third quarter of 2025 were mainly recorded in Turkey, China and Mexico. ‌Income tax expense The tax expense was €15.9 million in the third quarter of 2025, which implies a increase of €0.5 million compared to €15.4 million expenses for the same period in 2024. Effective tax rate for the period was 24.6%. ‌Result attributable to non-controlling interests Result attributable to non-controlling interests for the third quarter of 2025 was a profit, implied a negative impact of €18.8 million. The gains attributable to non-controlling interests in the second quarter of 2025 is consistent with the result of gains in those operations in which the group has non-controlling interests. ‌FINANCIAL INFORMATION BY GEOGRAPHIC SEGMENT ‌Revenues & EBITDA Third Quarter 2024 2025 % Change Revenues (Millions of Euros) YTD September 30, 2024 2025 % Change (Millions of Euros) Western Europe 953.8 883.6 -7.4% 3,157.5 3,001.0 -5.0% Eastern Europe 390.0 419.1 7.5% 1,337.6 1,418.1 6.0% NAFTA 569.6 581.0 2.0% 1,863.6 1,730.3 -7.2% Mercosur 251.6 210.1 -16.5% 674.1 603.8 -10.4% Asia 503.7 434.7 -13.7% 1,458.7 1,338.2 -8.3% Gescrap 118.6 113.6 -4.2% 435.3 394.6 -9.3% Total 2,787.3 2,642.1 -5.2% 8,926.8 8,486.0 -4.9% Third Quarter 2024 2025 % Change EBITDA (Millions of Euros) YTD September 30, 2024 2025 % Change (Millions of Euros) Western Europe 101.3 80.4 -20.6% 340.6 297.9 -12.5% Eastern Europe 53.8 62.4 16.0% 171.7 215.7 25.6% NAFTA 26.3 41.3 57.0% 100.2 113.0 12.8% Mercosur 28.4 30.9 8.8% 73.6 73.5 -0.1% Asia 73.6 62.0 -15.8% 212.4 193.9 -8.7% Gescrap 10.2 6.9 -32.4% 37.0 31.1 -15.9% Total 293.6 283.9 -3.3% 935.5 925.1 -1.1% Western Europe During the first nine months of the year, Auto revenues in Western Europe reached €3,001.0 million, representing a decline of €156.5 million or -5.0% (the same at constant FX) compared to the first nine months of 2024.

This decrease was mainly due to a reduction in EBITDA of €9.8 million, which was partially offset by a €17.8 million decrease in changes in working capital compared to the same period in 2024. ‌Working capital Changes in working capital resulted in a cash outflow of €94.5 million during the third quarter of 2025, compared to a cash outflow of €112.3 million in the third quarter of 2024. Our working capital requirements are largely derived from our trade accounts receivable and other accounts receivable, which are comprised primarily of amounts owed by our customers as well as accounts receivable with the Public Treasury for payments on account of taxes or tax refunds, inventories comprised primarily of raw materials (primarily steel), and other current assets. Our accounts payable to suppliers and other accounts payable correspond to the amounts payable for the purchase of raw materials and services, amounts payable to the Treasury for taxes and payments to our employees for accrued remuneration. Historically, we have financed our working capital needs through the funds generated by our operations, as well as loans from financial entities and funds from other sources of financing. ‌Cash flow used in investing activities Cash flow used in investing activities during the third quarter of 2025 increased by €54.5 million, reaching €253.2 million, compared to €198.7 million used during the same quarter of 2024. Investments in the third quarter of 2025 were mainly focused on projects in Spain, NAFTA, and the Czech Republic. ‌Cash flow from financing activities Cash flow used in financing activities during the third quarter of 2025 resulted in a cash inflow of €1.8 million, compared to a cash outflow of €36.0 million during the same quarter of 2024. During the third quarter of 2025, dividend payments amounted to €40.2 million, compared to €77.2 million in the same quarter of 2024. ‌INVESTMENTS IN FIXED ASSETS YTD September 30, 2024 2025 (Millions of Euros) 81.3 83.4 516.5 541.3 597.8 53.2 84.4 651.0 709.2 624.7 Third Quarter 2024 2025 Capital expenditures (Millions of Euros) Intangible assets 26.7 32.2 Tangible assets 185.6 177.7 Total (excl IFRS 16) 212.3 209.9 - Effect IFRS 16 3.9 13.4 Total 216.2 223.3 Investments in fixed assets during the third quarter of 2025 amounted to €223.3 million compared to the €216.2 million for the third quarter of 2024. This represents a 8.5% of our revenues. Investments in fixed assets consist mainly of property, plant and equipment. Intangible capital expenditures during the second quarter of 2025 amounted to €32.2 million and includes expenditure on intangible assets such as research and development costs.

As of September 30, 2025, the Group's liquidity position amounted to €2,137.9 million and included: Cash and other liquid assets amounting to €1,074.7 million, current financial investments for €120.8 million (including loans granted, portfolio of current securities and other current financial investments), available and undrawn credit lines amounting to €442.4 million and Revolving Credit Facility amounting to €500.0 million. In addition, the debt maturities for the next 12 months as of September 30, 2025 amounted to €1,114.2 million (€1,056.1 million from loans and other loans and financial debts with associates and the rest corresponding to financial leases) and, in the third quarter of 2025, the net cash flow used in investment activities (not including purchases and income between companies) amounted to €253.9 million, while the net cash flow from operating activities amounted to €96.9 million. Liquidity Risk Management The Group manages liquidity risk by seeking the availability of cash to cover its cash needs and the maturity of the debt for a period of 12 months, thus avoiding the need to raise funds under unfavorable conditions to cover short-term needs. This liquidity risk management over the next 12 months is complemented by an analysis of the Group's debt maturity profile, seeking an adequate average maturity and, therefore, refinancing short-term maturities in advance, especially the first two years following. As of September 30, 2025, the average maturity of the Group's net financial debt was 2.6 years (estimated considering the use of cash and credit lines with a maturity of more than 12 months to repay the short-term debt). Nonetheless, it should be noted that, as of October 6, 2025, a new bond issuance was carried out for a nominal amount of €500 million, with a maturity of 5 years (October 15, 2030) and an annual coupon rate of 4.375%. The proceeds from this issuance are intended to refinance the outstanding €483 million bond maturing in April 2026. The average maturity of net financial debt would become 3.4 years. Our main source of liquidity is our operating cash flow, which is analyzed above. Our ability to generate cash from our operations depends on our future operating performance, which in turn depends, to some extent, on general economic, financial, competitive, market, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. We believe that the potential risks to our liquidity include: (i) a reduction in operating cash flows due to a lowering in operating profit from our operations, which could be caused by a downturn in our performance or in the industry as a whole ; (ii) the failure or delay of our customers to make payments owed to us; (iii) the failure to maintain low working capital requirements; and (iv) the need to fund expansion and other development capital expenditures. In the event of lack of liquidity, we may be forced to reduce or delay our business activities and capital expenditures, sell our assets, or obtain additional debt or equity financing. ‌OTHER RELEVANT FINANCIAL DATA YTD Septe mber 30, 2024 2025 Other Financial Data (Millions of Euros) EBITDA 935.5 925.1 Cash, cash equivalent and current financial assets -1,101.2 -1,195.6 Total Gross Financial Debt 3,537.9 3,302.4 Total Net Financial Debt 2,436.7 2,106.8 YTD Septe mber 30, 2024 2025 (Millions of Euros) Operating profit 405.4 398.8 Adjusted for: Depreciation, amortization and impairment losses 530.1 526.3 EBITDA 935.5 925.1 Cash, cash equivalents and current financial assets as of September 30, 2025 amounted to €1,195.6 million (including cash and equivalents of €1,074.7 million and current financial investments of €120.8 million).
