About this update from Guillemot Corp. Sa

Carentoir, April 29, 2026 FIRST QUARTER 2026 TURNOVER Unaudited data (€m) January 1 to March 31, 2026 2026 2025 Change Thrustmaster 22.7 22.0 +3% Gaming accessories 22.7 22.0 +3% Hercules 2.4 3.0 -20% Digital devices 2.4 3.0 -20% TOTAL 25.1 25.0 0% Q1 2026 business performance The Group generated turnover of €25.1 million in the first quarter of 2026, stable relative to the same period of the prior year, with Thrustmaster posting modest growth of 3% and Hercules down 20%, mainly due to an unfavorable base effect (i.e. the launches of DJControl Mix Ultra and DJControl Inpulse T7 White Edition in the first quarter of 2025).
