The comparative information has been restated due to a discontinued operation (see Note 10). 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 10. 5 INTERIM REPORT H1 2024 | MONTANA AEROSPACE AG FINANCIAL OVERVIEW Net Sales In the first six months of 2024, Montana Aerospace generated consolidated net sales of EUR 719.5 million, representing a 17.2% increase compared to EUR 614.0 million in the first half of the previous year. The largest contribution to net sales was made by the Aerostructures segment, which generated EUR 409.0 million, followed closely by the Energy segment, which contributed EUR 311.7 million. Despite lower build rates from major OEMs such as Airbus and Boeing in Q2 2024 compared to previous quarters, Aerostructures was able to largely compensate for the shortfall in volumes on existing work packages by gaining market share from competition. The Energy segment continues to reap benefits from structural market shift as evidenced by higher production volumes and better pricing. EBITDA After accounting for non-recurring and non-operational items, mainly expenses related to legal fees and the Management Stock Option Program (MSOP), the adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 79.3 million in the first half of 2024, up from EUR 54.9 million in the same period of 2023. This equates to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 11.0%, up from 8.9% in the same period last year. On an unadjusted basis, the Group's reported EBITDA increased from EUR 51.3 million in the first six months of 2023 to EUR 75.2 million in 2024, representing a 46.7% growth rate. This is in line with the increase in adjusted EBITDA, which grew by 44.4% compared to the previous period. In both segments, the positive EBITDA development was driven by a favorable price-volume mix, better capacity utilization and the impact of operating leverage. The two adjustments to the reported EBITDA in the first six months of 2024 were the final legal costs for the Arconic lawsuit (EUR 3.4 million) and the expenses related to the management stock option program (MSOP) (EUR 0.7 million), resulting in a total of EUR 4.1 million. Concerning trade working capital (TWC), we expect to reach significantly lower and more sustainable TWC levels across both segments by the end of 2024, as previously guided. The higher trade working capital in the period ended June 2024 (as compared to December 2023) is the result of expected higher deliveries in the second half of 2024. At the end of 2023, we had observed some delayed payments due to optimization initiatives. This will change in the future, however, as payments will be made earlier, in line with previous first quarters of the respective financial years. As net sales grew by approximately 17%, inventories increased by only around 3%, which we view as a positive indicator of our effective trade working capital management. The financial result improved from EUR -26.6 million at the end of H1 2023 to EUR -17.6 million at the end of H1 2024, positively influenced by net FX gains compared to net FX losses in H1 2023. The combination of the new syndicated loan and the use of up to EUR 250 million of cash to repay existing debt at the end of 2023 further strengthens the balance sheet and reduces interest expense during 2024. 6 INTERIM REPORT H1 2024 | MONTANA AEROSPACE AG FINANCIAL OVERVIEW Net Sales and adj.

Aerostructures showed growth of +22.9% with total net sales of EUR 409.0 million, while Energy showed growth of +10.5% with total net sales of EUR 311.7 million. The Energy segment achieved an adj. EBITDA of EUR 18.2 million, an increase of +35.1% compared to end of June 2023, establishing itself as a strong growth business and reflecting the state of the market, which is shifting from a pull to a push market. Aerostructures also showed a significant improvement of +68.3% compared to the same period of the previous year and achieved an adj. EBITDA of EUR 63.5 million, despite the issues from one of the main customers Spirit AeroSystems and supply chain challenges within ASCO. Operating Result (EBIT) As a result of the strong EBITDA, the operating result (EBIT) reached EUR 28.7 million as of 30 June 2024, a considerable improvement compared to EUR 4.3 million EBIT in the first six months of 2023. Total depreciation and amortization expenses amounted to EUR 46.5 million in the first six months of 2024 compared to EUR 47.0 million in the same period of 2023. No adjustments to depreciation and amortization (impairment) were made. 7 INTERIM REPORT H1 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 For the six months ended 30 June 2024 2023 175,252 426,215 -4,290 -36,978 -37,996 -38,339 -20,658 -45,283 -278 -740 112,030 304,875 Balance sheet (in TEUR) ASSETS Non-current assets Current assets o/w cash and cash equivalents Total Assets EQUITY AND LIABILITIES Total equity Non-current liabilities Current liabilities Total equity and liabilities 30 June 2024 1,032,717 867,821 108,893 1,900,538 912,866 534,547 453,125 1,900,538 31 December 2023 1,148,124 787,336 175,252 1,935,460 934,358 548,943 452,159 1,935,460 As of 30 June 2024, total assets amounted to EUR 1,900.5 million (31 December 2023: EUR 1,935.5 million), with total non-current assets of EUR 1,032.7 million (31 December 2023: EUR 1,148.1 million).

At 30 June 2024, Montana Aerospace's trade working capital amounted to EUR 342.2 million compared to EUR 371.8 million in Q2 2023. The main changes in the balance sheet positions are the result of presenting the previously reportable segment "E-Mobility " as a disposal group held for sale and is also classified as a discontinued operation (see note 10). 9 INTERIM REPORT H1 2024 | MONTANA AEROSPACE AG FINANCIAL OVERVIEW Supplemental financial information USAGE OF ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES Montana Aerospace AG is managed in accordance with internally defined financial and non-financial key figures in the interest of achieving a sustainable increase in value.
