The comparative information has been restated due to a discontinued operation (see Note 14). The Group has elected to present the result after tax of the discontinued operation in a separate amount in the statement of comprehensive income and has disaggregated this separate amount into revenue, expenses and result before tax in Note 14. 5 INTERIM REPORT 9M 2024 | MONTANA AEROSPACE AG FINANCIAL OVERVIEW Net Sales In the first nine months of 2024, Montana Aerospace generated consolidated net sales of EUR 1,086.3 million, resulting in an 18.8% increase compared to EUR 914.8 million in the first three quarters of the previous year. The largest contribution to net sales was made by the Aerostructures segment, which generated EUR 612.0 million, followed by the Energy segment, which contributed EUR 469.4 million. The positive net sales development was driven primarily by organic growth. The loss of net sales through the divestiture of the E-Mobility segment by the end of 2024 needs to be considered. Overall, Montana Aerospace shows a constant order to bill ratio of greater 1. EBITDA After accounting for non-recurring and non-operational items, mainly expenses related to legal fees and management stock option program (MSOP), the adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 118.1 million in the first nine months of 2024, up from EUR 75.6 million in the same period of 2023. This equates to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 10.9%, up from 8.3% in the same period last year. On an unadjusted basis, the Group's reported EBITDA increased from EUR 70.4 million in the first nine months of 2023 to EUR 113.8 million in 2024, representing a 61.7% growth rate. This is in line with the increase in adjusted EBITDA, which grew by 56.1% compared to the previous period. The increase in EBITDA is primarily attributable to a substantial enhancement in production output, which includes net sales and the change in finished goods (+EUR 188.7 million compared to 9M of 2023). This growth is driven by gains in market share, complemented by the expansion of our workforce to approximately 8,200 employees. The two adjustments to the reported EBITDA in the nine months of 2024 were the legal costs (EUR 3.3 million) and the expenses related to the management stock option program (MSOP) (EUR 1.0 million), resulting in a total of EUR 4.3 million. Concerning trade working capital (TWC), we anticipate reaching significantly lower and more sustainable TWC levels across all segments by the end of 2024, in line with our previous guidance. As net sales grew by approximately 19%, trade working capital increased by only around 5%, which we view as a positive indicator of our effective trade working capital management practices. The financial result remained stable at EUR -38.9 million at the end of 9M 2024 compared to EUR -38.3 million at the end of 9M 2023. We note that the financial result is impacted by various non-cash items, including FX and consolidation, amounting to approximately EUR 15 million in 9M 2024. 6 INTERIM REPORT 9M 2024 | MONTANA AEROSPACE AG FINANCIAL OVERVIEW Net Sales and adj.

Aerostructures posted growth of +23.0% with total net sales of EUR 612.0 million, while Energy showed growth of +12.3% with total net sales of EUR 469.4 million. The Energy segment achieved an adjusted EBITDA of EUR 25.5 million, an increase of +36.0% compared to the third quarter of 2023, establishing itself as a strong growth business and reflecting the state of the market. Aerostructures also showed a significant improvement of +68.1% compared to the same period of the previous year and achieved an adjusted EBITDA of EUR 94.2 million, despite issues from Spirit AeroSystems and Boeing. Operating Result (EBIT) As a result of the strong EBITDA, the operating result (EBIT) reached EUR 43.7 million as of 30 September 2024, a tremendous improvement compared to EUR -1.8 million EBIT in the first nine months of 2023. Total depreciation and amortization expenses amounted to EUR 70.1 million in the first nine months of 2024 compared to EUR 72.2 million in the same period of 2023. The small improvement reflects the impact of close monitoring of CAPEX and the postponement of new investments. No adjustments to depreciation and amortization (impairment) were made. 7 INTERIM REPORT 9M 2024 | MONTANA AEROSPACE AG FINANCIAL OVERVIEW Cash flow statement (in TEUR) Cash and cash equivalents at the beginning of the period Net cash provided / used in operating activities Net cash used in investing activities Net cash used in / from financing activities +/- effect of exchange rate fluctuations on cash held Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period * * including discontinued operation (E-Mobility segment).
