Rome, 13th May 2026 - The Board of Directors of Rai Way S.p.A. (Rai Way), digital infrastructure operator and provider of services for media content distribution, met today under the chairmanship of Enrico Mordillo, examining and unanimously approving the Company's Interim Financial Report for the quarter ended 31 March 2026.

The first quarter of fiscal year 2026 reported revenues of € 71.9 million, marking a 2.6% increase, significantly stronger than the inflation indexation included in most customer contracts. Despite a negative impact of € 0.7 million stemming from certain non-core items, Adjusted EBITDAi grew by €

0.4 million, or 1.0%, reaching € 47.3 million and confirming the business's usual growth trend. The implementation of the Industrial Plan projects led to a further increase in depreciation and amortization, which in turn resulted in a slight decline in operating profit (EBITi) and net income for the period. Thanks to recurring cash generationii, which rose to approximately € 34 million, net debti,iii was down compared to both 31 December 2025, and 31 March 2025, standing at € 113.5 million.

From an operational standpoint, the DAB network for the RAI client has further expanded its coverage. Work has also begun on the first sites interested by the solar power project, pending additional regulatory approvals. Meanwhile, commercial activities related to the Content Delivery Network and

Edge data centers have continued, alongside the set-up of activities to identify prospects and partners for the future Hyperscale data center in Pomezia.

Also in light of the positive progress in core operations and diversification initiatives, management has confirmed the guidance for the current fiscal year, formulated net of the possible effects of the international geopolitical context on energy prices.

Roberto Cecatto, Chief Executive Officer of Rai Way, commented: "The start of 2026 was in line with expectations, marked by growth and dynamism: factors that are set to continue in the coming months, regardless of the unstable macroeconomic conditions.

Together with the new Board, we renew our commitment to making Rai Way an increasingly solid company, pursuing all operational opportunities and strategic options that will strengthen its positioning and growth prospects, while preserving discipline and returns for shareholders".

• Media distribution services generated a turnover of € 63.1 million, up 2.0%, mainly thanks to revenues from RAI, driven by the expansion of the DAB network, as well as a 1.0% inflation contribution;
• Digital infrastructure, on the other hand, recorded revenues of € 8.8 million, marking a 7.5% increase, thanks to the expansion of tower hosting services and to higher revenues related to connectivity and edge data centers.

Adjusted EBITDAi amounted to € 47.3 million, up 1.0% compared to € 46.9 million in the first quarter of 2025. This growth was achieved despite the negative impact of the level of non-core items, while energy prices were still largely in line with last year. Adjusted EBITDAi as a percentage of revenues fell to 65.9% from 67.0% previously. Taking into account one-offs of € 0.6 million, which were absent in the corresponding period of 2025, EBITDAi decreased by 0.4% from € 46.9 million to € 46.7 million.

In a quarter that is typically unremarkable in terms of capital expenditure seasonality, Capexiv totaled

€ 5.4 million, up from € 4.0 million in the same period of 2025, thanks to development activities, which more than doubled to € 4.2 million. In particular, Rai Way continued to expand the DAB network for RAI - a project expected to continue through 2027 - as well as the Content Delivery Network, while working on preparatory activities for the development of the Hyperscale data center in Pomezia.

Also in line with the 2024-27 Industrial Plan, in March the Company signed an agreement to extend the maturity of its medium/long-term loan by eighteen months, on the same terms. The loan, provided by a pool of financial institutions for a maximum amount of € 185 million, was originally due in October 2026.

A few weeks after setting these targets, Rai Way confirms the outlook for fiscal year 2026 announced during the presentation of its 2025 annual results.

Excluding the potential effects of the international geopolitical context on energy prices, Rai Way forecasts the following, compared to 2025:

• an Adjusted EBITDAi substantially in line, with underlying business growth offset by a negative impact related to the level of non-core items;

• stable maintenance capex, thus remaining above the recurring average level due to certain cyclical or non-recurring activities;

• higher development capex, primarily reflecting activities related to the photovoltaic project, the extension of the DAB network and the further upgrading of the CDN network
