For Jungheinrich, sustainability is not just a matter of attitude, but also a decisive factor for long-term competitiveness. It influences investment decisions, access to markets, our customers' expectations, and how we are assessed by the capital markets and rating agencies. At the same time, it is closely linked to our core business: efficient, circular and safe are central performance promises of modern material handling and, for us, represent the future of the warehouse. With this ESG Factbook, we therefore aim to demonstrate clearly and transparently - even beyond regulatory requirements - where Jungheinrich stands. It supplements our CSRD-compliant reporting with visually presented data and topics which, whilst not considered material within the meaning of the CSRD, are of high relevance to Jungheinrich and our stakeholders. Where do you see the greatest opportunity to make sustainability a reality? The greatest opportunity lies in the consistent integration of sustainability into our products, solutions and processes. To us it is important to make the impact measurable across the entire value chain and to create genuine added value. This applies to our customers as well as to Jungheinrich itself. Our electrified, energy-efficient - and increasingly circular - solutions demonstrate how environmental and economic goals can work in tandem. Complemented by clear governance structures and transparent target systems, this creates a robust foundation for sustainable value creation. What gives you confidence that Jungheinrich can successfully implement its sustainability ambitions in the long term? Our clear strategic focus, verifiable targets, and a high level of innovation and implementation expertise in our core business are the best foundations for a successful long-term implementation. Furthermore, sustainability is firmly integrated into all key decision-making processes at Jungheinrich. Gabriele Maurer, Vice President Corporate Sustainability, Health and Safety Our targets are regularly measured, externally assessed and further developed. This combination of ambition, transparency and operational integration builds trust among our stakeholders and, in our view, is the key to ensuring long-term stability, resilience and sustainable corporate value. ‌Sustainability highlights 2025 Advancing the circular economy We have successfully established our global circular economy strategy. The high recycling rate of our used equipment is already a success today. . Less landfill waste worldwide By 2025, we were able to reduce the proportion of our global landfill waste by just under 75% -a significant step towards our ambitious waste targets. Sustainable procurement volume increased By winning the 2026 German Sustainability Award, we have received one of Europe's most prestigious awards for corporate responsibility. This achievement confirms that we are on the right track - harmonising economic efficiency with sustainability. Our sustainable spend has risen further and now stands at 82%, meaning we have exceeded our target of 80% by 2025. Improved occupational safety The LTIR (lost-time injuries per million working hours) stands at 10.5. We have thus reduced it further and exceeded our 2025 target. More women in leadership roles The share of women on the Board of Management and Supervisory Board stands at 41% in 2025 (previous year: 35%). Outstanding sustainability The renewed Platinum rating from EcoVadis and the top grade of A in the CDP rating confirm our steadily improving sustainability performance. ‌ESG ratings, initiatives and memberships Jungheinrich uses ESG ratings to make progress measurable and transparent. The ratings show how we perform compared to the market and help us to identify external requirements at an early stage and address them in a targeted manner. ESG Ratings Initiatives and memberships 2025 Platinum (85 points) A B- Prime 20.8 2024 Platinum (82 points) B B- Prime 26.6 Scale 0 to 100; Medals Bronze to Platinum A to F A+ to D- 0 to 100 smaller number = lower risk Trend y y R y EcoVadis assesses companies against 21 sustainability criteria across four core areas: the environment, labour and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement. Only the top 1% of assessed companies receive the Platinum medal. CDP is an international disclosure programme for assessing environmental performance. It is based on standardised climate and environment-related data, which is disclosed by participating organisations and evaluated in a comparable manner. ISS ESG assesses companies using sector-specific ESG analyses. The assessment is based on qualitative and quantitative indicators relating to environmental, social and governance factors, supplemented by controversy monitoring and materiality assessments. Sustainalytics assesses companies according to their material ESG risks and the effectiveness of their risk management. The analysis is based on public data, sector-specific ESG issues and a regularly updated review process. ‌An overview of our value creation 21 °C 40 % Raw materials Intermediate products Development (Re-) Manufacturing Financial and OEM products services Sales including commercial Partner sales Use and service End-of-life management Upstream activities R Own operations R Downstream activities 2 4 11 12 15 1 2 3 4 6 7 8 9 10 13 2 5 13 14 Related material matters Environment Climate change Climate change adaptation Climate change mitigation Energy Circular economy Resource inflows, including resource use Resource outflows related to products and services Waste Social Own work force Health and safety Diversity Training and skills development Data protection Workers in the value chain Working conditions Other work-related rights Consumers and end-users Data protection Health and safety Governance Business conduct Sustainable material handling We are shaping the future of warehousing for our customers: efficient, circular-ready, safe. ⮕ For more information, please visit our website.

Resilience to climate-related risks is enhanced through adaptation measures that have already been implemented and those that are planned. Process for identifying and managing physical climate risks Risk identification Physical climate risks are regularly analysed and considered an integral part of risk management. These risks are identified based on the company's own site-specific information as well as external climate data from the IPCC's optimistic (1.5 °C) and pessimistic (4.3 °C) climate scenarios for 2030 and 2050. Risk assessment Physical risks are classified as high, medium or low according to their economic relevance, and impacts on assets and business operations are taken into account. Risk mitigation For identified moderate and high physical climate risks, an assessment is conducted to determine whether suitable adaptation measures are already in place. If such measures are not in place or are insufficient, site-specific adaptation plans are developed and must be implemented within five years. Target tracking The central target of avoiding severe climate-related business interruptions at the company's own locations serves to determine the effectiveness of the adaptation measures. Tracking this target allows progress to be presented transparently and need for action to be identified.
