Net Sales In the first six months of 2025, Montana Aerospace generated consolidated net sales of EUR 820.6 million, an increase of 14.1% compared to EUR 719.5 million in the first half of the previous year. The largest contribution to net sales was made by the Aerostructures segment with EUR 429.9 million, closely followed by the Energy segment with EUR 356.7 million. The positive net sales development was solely driven by organic growth in both segments. In the Aerostructures segment, the growth was supported by gains in market share while the Energy segment benefited from a highly positive tailwind in the industry. EBITDA On an unadjusted basis, the Group's reported EBITDA increased from EUR 75.2 million in the first six months of 2024 to EUR 101.4 million in the first six months of 2025, an increase of 34.9%. This translates into a Group EBITDA margin of 12.4% compared to 10.5% in the same period last year. Accounting for smaller non-recurring and non-operational items - mainly expenses related to legal fees and the management stock option program (MSOP) - the adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 102.0 million in the first six months of 2025, up from EUR 79.3 million in the same period of 2024. The two minor adjustments to the reported EBITDA in the first six months of 2025 were the legal costs (EUR 0.2 million) and the expenses related to the management stock option program (MSOP) (EUR 0.4 million), totaling EUR 0.57 million. Operating result (EBIT) The operating result (EBIT) reached EUR 52.1 million as of 30 June 2025, a considerable increase compared to EUR 28.7 million EBIT in the first six months of 2024. Total depreciation and amortization expenses amounted to EUR 49.3 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to EUR 46.5 million in the same period of 2024. No adjustments to depreciation and amortization (impairment) were made. Net Sales and EBITDA development per segment in EURm Aerostructures Energy H1 2024 H1 2025 H1 2024 H1 2025 Net Sales 409.0 429.9 311.7 356.7 yoy growth +5.1% +14.4% EBITDA 60.1 76.4 18.2 24.0 yoy growth +27.2% +32.1% In the first half of 2025, Montana Aerospace's Aerostructures and Energy segments continued to drive the Group's growth trajectory. Aerostructures posted net sales of EUR 429.9 million, up 5.1% (yoy), while EBITDA rose by 27.2% to EUR 76.4 million. This performance was driven by strong operational execution, improved cost absorption, and a growing share of business with third-party customers beyond Airbus and Boeing. Strategic delivery sequencing further supported capacity utilization and margin expansion, even as OEM production rates remained flattish. The Energy segment also delivered a strong performance, with net sales increasing by 14.4% to EUR 356.7 million and EBITDA climbing 32.1% to EUR 24.0 million. This growth reflects the momentum from the global energy transition, with robust demand for high-voltage infrastructure and a healthy pipeline of long-term contracts. Together, both segments underscore Montana Aerospace's ability to deliver profitable growth across diverse market environments, despite volatility in the aerospace sector. Trade Working Capital Over the past five quarters, TWC has remained stable relative to sales, fluctuating within a narrow range of 23-25%. This consistency is in line with the Group's objective to support growth without overextending its balance sheet. Net Income Montana Aerospace delivered a solid net income of EUR 6.4 million in the first half of 2025, despite being impacted by non-cash foreign exchange losses of around EUR 24 million. These FX effects, driven by USD rate developments and the valuation of intercompany loans, are accounting-related and did not affect our cash flow. Adjusted for these one-off items, our net income would have exceeded EUR 30 million. Free cash flow In H1 2025, we have been able to turn our free cash flow around, getting from negative EUR 8.2 million in Q2 2024 to a positive EUR 26.0 million in Q2 2025. This reflects our focus on operational efficiency and disciplined cash management. Net Debt The Group has also actively strengthened its capital structure over the past year by significantly reducing its net debt from EUR 342.4 million in Q2 2024 to EUR 237.6 million in Q2 2025. This was the result of disciplined cash management and a clear focus on operational efficiency. At the same time, the Group brought the net debt-to-EBITDA ratio down from 2.5x to 1.3x, giving greater financial flexibility. This improved position allows to move forward to invest in future growth opportunities while maintaining a solid financial foundation.

The Group's sales were not subject to seasonal variations during the reporting period. The consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, unless otherwise indicated. All amounts are in thousands of euros unless otherwise stated. These interim financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 12 August 2025. Use of judgements and estimates In preparing these interim financial statements, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Group's accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The significant judgments made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainties were the same as those described in the last annual financial statements of Montana Aerospace. Measurement of fair values A number of the Group's accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses observable market data as far as possible. Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows. Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. The Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred. Changes in material accounting policies The accounting policies applied in these consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the Group's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2024. Amendments which apply for the first time in 2025 had no material impact on the condensed interim financial statements. Segment reporting Basis for segmentation Operating segments requiring to be reported are determined on the basis of a management approach. Accordingly, external segment reporting reflects the internal organizational and management structure used within the Group as well as internal financial reporting to the chief operating division maker. In the case of Montana Aerospace, the chief operating decision maker is the Board of Montana Aerospace AG. The reporting is divided into the reportable segments "Aerostructures" and "Energy". In addition, all other segments as well as unallocated costs are reported separately under "All other segments". Aerostructures The Aerostructures segment is a partner for aircraft manufacturers. The segment develops and manufactures aircraft parts. The Group's product portfolio ranges from structural components for fuselage, wings and landing gear to critical engine components subject to high thermal and mechanical loads, and functional components for the cabin interior. Energy The Energy segment produces components for the energy infrastructure. The segment specializes in copper processing and has high-level expertise in copper refinement and insulation systems. The accounting and measurement policies for the segment reporting are based on the IFRS used in the present consolidated financial statements. The Board of Directors (CODM) uses adjusted EBITDA for management purposes. The adjustments are made to eliminate non-operational expenses and income not attributed to management performance. The following were incurred during the reporting and comparison period: For the six months ended 30 June (in TEUR) 2025 2024 EBITDA as reported 101,442 75,220 Legal costs 163 3,443 Stock option plans (share-based payment) 406 681 Adjusted EBITDA 102,011 79,344 Information according to reportable segments The management variables, which are used to assess the performance of the operating segments, are shown below: Reportable segments Aerostructures Energy Total All other segments Group E-Mobility (discontinued operation * ) 2025 2024 80,594 280 80,874 576 576 -27,251 4,302 For the six months ended 30 June (in TEUR) 2025 2024 2025 2024 2025 2024 2025 2024 2025 2024 External net sales 429,903 407,878 356,661 311,671 786,564 719,549 34,072 820,636 719,549 Net sales between segments 1,102 0 1,102 -1,102 0 Total Net Sales 429,903 76,584 408,980 356,661 24,033 311,671 786,564 100,617 720,651 34,072 1,394 -1,102 820,636 102,011 719,549 Adjusted EBITDA 63,540 18,189 81,729 -2,385 79,344 Non-operative income and expenses -163 -3,443 -163 -3,443 -406 -681 -569 -4,124 EBITDA 76,421 60,097 24,033 18,189 100,454 78,286 988 -3,066 101,442 75,220 Depreciation and amortization -42,525 -41,789 -4,475 -4,740 -47,000 -46,529 -2,314 -16 -49,314 -46,545 Operating result 52,128 28,675 Financial result -47,416 -17,624 Share of result of equity-accounted investees, net of tax 383 Result before tax 4,713 11,434 Income tax expense / income 1,705 -2,239 Result from continuing operations 6,417 9,195 Result from discontinued operation, net of tax -26,621 Result for the period 36,460 12,568 49,028 1,057 6,417 50,085 -17,426 Investments 25,517 8,735 34,252 34 34,286 * Further information relating to discontinued operation see note 10.

THE MONTANA AEROSPACE EQUITY STORY What arguments support an investment in Montana Aerospace: Positioning in Distinct Future and Growth Markets Montana Aerospace presents shareholders with an investment opportunity in high-growth niche markets with promising futures. Over the long term, the increase in population and prosperity will drive demand for energy and sustainable mobility solutions, both in the air and on the ground. Montana Aerospace's scalable business model aligns with the objective of expanding its market shares in Europe, the Americas, and the APAC region while solidifying its position as a technology leader in megatrends. Our segments - Aerostructures and Energy - hold substantial growth potential, as reflected in our results. In the Aerostructures segment, the rising air traffic and fleet modernizations are significant drivers. In the Energy segment, our goal is to achieve a revenue of 1 billion euros by the end of the decade. The transition to renewable energy is a key challenge of today's society and we provide key technologies for this change. Our strategy is to play an active role in shaping the profound structural changes in the aerospace and energy transition industries with our globally highly integrated manufacturing operations. As a full-service provider following a global local-to-local strategy, and with approximately 7,600 highly skilled employees across 22 locations worldwide, we are ideally positioned to offer forward-thinking solutions to our customers. Entering the Profit Phase The past years have been defined by strong growth-both organic and inorganic-as well as significant countercyclical investments. Since 2018, we have invested over EUR 700 million of capital expenditures (CAPEX), with the majority directed toward expanding capacities and expertise. These investments fueled our growth in an increasingly dynamic supplier landscape. In the fiscal year 2024, we reached the next stage of our long-term strategy: the profit phase. For the first time since the IPO, we achieved both a positive free cash flow and a positive net income. Now, we are capitalizing on the countercyclical investments of the past to unlock overproportionate benefits in the years ahead. PROFITABILITY AND BEYOND AFTER YEARS OF RAMP-UP AND MAJOR INVESTMENT Montana Aerospace Embraces Sustainability We are deeply committed to sustainability and, in 2022, commenced publishing an ESG report. For the fiscal year 2023 we prepared the reported information with reference to the GRI Standards and currently we are preparing the necessary data base to be able to report according to the ESRS standard. Montana Aerospace wants to contribute to the path toward climate neutrality - especially through its innovative solutions in the energy segment, as well as through a streamlined supply chain and the development and use of lightweight materials in the field of aerostructures. This commitment, along with the integration of ESG criteria into the company's philosophy, is a central element of our strategy and long-term success. At Montana Aerospace, we prioritize sustainability goals like: Reduce our CO 2 emissions by enhancing the vertical integration of our value chain. Foster the circular economy by implementing in-house recycling processes. Establish sustainable, long-term relationships with our employees and partners. In 2023, we completed the process of materiality analysis and in 2024, we conducted a double materiality analysis. We also established sustainability as a key aspect of our strategy, setting up an ESG committee in the board of directors and thus integrating it into the highest level management. In 2024, among other milestones, we completed our ESG risk assessment and received ratings from three different ESG rating agencies. Many more initiatives in the coming years. Our Unique Value: A One-Stop-Shop Experience with Deep Vertical Integration Across Our Locations We provide our customers with vertical integration of the value chain, resulting in significant time savings and reductions in transportation routes and CO 2 emissions. This creates substantial additional value, positioning us as an optimal partner. From the processing of raw materials to the assembly of entire components, we offer the highest quality from a single source with a streamlined supply chain and without potential challenges at the interfaces between smaller suppliers. The end products of our customers, such as passenger aircrafts, consist of thousands of individual parts. The value chain is often highly fragmented, and managing numerous suppliers requires significant coordination effort and entails risks. We position ourselves as a strategic partner capable of covering many parts of the value chain. As Montana Aerospace, we can handle everything from development to the production of system-critical components and complex assemblies, providing our customers with substantial savings and creating a positive ESG impact. With our One-Stop-Shop concept, we see ourselves as a game-changer in the entire supply chain: "Everything from a single source, precisely where it's needed." Regional proximity is crucial. We have established One-Stop-Shops across the globe- in the U.S., Europe, and Asia-strategically positioned to support the aviation industry. As our customers increasingly adopt local-to-local manufacturing, our deep vertical integration and global footprint optimization allow us to fully maximize our USP.
