The first quarter of 2026 reflects a strong start of the year, driven by excellent momentum in the Rare Diseases and resilient in-market growth of the Specialty and Primary Care promoted portfolio. Consolidated net revenue was € 713.4 million, up 4.9% versus the first quarter of 2025 or 8.7% on a like-for-like1 basis at constant exchange rates (7.9% excluding Türkiye) with an adverse currency impact in the quarter of € 29.1 million (-4.3%), mainly driven by the US dollar and Turkish Lira devaluation (the latter only partially compensated by price inflation).

Specialty & Primary Care revenue was € 404.4 million for the first quarter of 2026, down 1.0% or up 0.2% on a like-for-like basis1 at constant exchange rates as compared to the first quarter of 20252, reflecting continued in-market growth of the promoted portfolio (+5%3) and some expected one-off headwinds. In particular, the Cardiovascular franchise achieved net revenue of € 113.7 million, an increase of 1.5%, and the Gastrointestinal franchise achieved net revenue of € 69.4 million, an increase of 2.1%, with continued good in-market performance of key products in both therapeutic areas. The Urology franchise achieved net revenue of € 104.4 million, a decrease of 4.3%, due to a high prior-year base following a product relaunch in Russia in 2025, and Cough & Cold franchise achieved net revenue of € 29.6 million, a decrease of 12.8% due to a weaker season in key markets.

Rare Diseases revenue was € 292.4 million for the first quarter of 2026, up 14.8% as compared to the first quarter of 2025, or 22.4% at constant exchange rates, driven by strong volume growth across the Endocrinology and Hemo-Oncology franchises. The Endocrinology franchise achieved net revenue of € 120.7 million, an increase of 38.1%, reflecting continued growth of Isturisa® (€ 86.3 million, +56.8%), driven mostly by strong new patient uptake across geographies, particularly in the US, and growth of Signifor® (€ 34.4 million, +6.3%). The Hema-Oncology franchise achieved net revenue of € 113.2 million, growing by 18.2%, reflecting the strong momentum of Enjaymo® across geographies (€ 43.9 million, +37.6%) and Qarziba® (€ 42.9 million, +13.9%), as well as growth of Sylvant® (€ 22.8, million +1.8%). The Metabolic franchise achieved net revenue of € 58.5 million, a decrease of 18.3%, reflecting phasing of Carbaglu® across geographies and slightly lower demand of Panhematin® in the US against a strong performance in the first quarter of 2025.

EBITDA was € 283.6 million for the first quarter of 2026, up 5.0% compared to the first quarter of 2025, with margin of 39.7% of net revenue. Strong revenue performance and the positive mix effect at gross profit level was partially offset by a higher level of investments to support the U.S. expansion, primarily for Isturisa®, the continued development of Enjaymo®, ongoing geographic expansion in Rare Diseases as well as the launch of Vazkepa®.

Adjusted operating income was € 231.1 million in the first quarter of 2026, an increase of 5.4% compared to the same period of the previous year. This represents 32.4% of net revenue, compared with 32.2% in the prior year, supported by strong operating performance. Operating income was € 229.6 million in the first quarter of 2026, up 17.3% over the first quarter of 2025 reflecting gross margin-related non-cash charges of

€ 22.4 million in 2025, arising mostly from the unwind of the fair value step up of the acquired Enjaymo®

inventory. Non-recurring costs were € 1.5 million versus € 1.1 million in the first quarter of 2025.

Net financial expenses amounted to € 28.9 million, down by € 2.1 million compared to the same period of the previous year, due to lower interest expenses. Net exchange losses over the period amounted to € 1.9 million, slightly higher as compared to losses of € 1.8 million in the first quarter of 2025, and the impact of

‌2 The 2025 figures have been restated to reflect the reclassification of certain brands from Other Therapeutic areas to Cardiovascular and Gastrointestinal areas in 2026. The amount of reclassification for Q1 2025 is as follows: €2.5 million from Other Therapeutic areas to Cardiovascular area and €4.4 million from Other Therapeutic areas to Gastrointestinal area.

hyperinflation was negative for € 2.0 million in line with the first quarter of 2025.

Adjusted net income was € 188.1 million, 26.4% of net revenue, up by 7.2% compared to the same period of 2025, benefitting from the higher adjusted operating income, as well as the lower financial expenses and a lower tax rate resulting from a positive country mix. Net income was € 153.1 million, 21.5% of net revenue, 22.4% higher than the same period of prior year, reflecting the positive operating income, the lower financial expenses and income tax rate versus the first quarter 2025.

In line with the prior year, results reflect the application of accounting standards for economies with hyperinflation to activities (IAS 29 and specific arrangements of IAS 21), the effect of which is positive for €

1.2 million in terms of revenues and slightly dilutive on margins, with a reduction in both EBITDA of € 2.8

million (vs € 4.4 million in Q1 2025) and Net Income of € 6.1 million (vs € 6.7 million in Q1 2025).

The net financial position as of 31st March 2026 recorded net debt of € 1,985.2 million, or leverage of just below 2.0x EBITDA, compared to net debt of € 2,037.3 million on 31st December 2025. During the period, treasury shares were purchased for € 43.6 million, net of proceeds from exercising stock options.

Free cash flow, which is operating cash flow excluding financing items, milestones, dividends and purchases of treasury shares net of proceeds from the exercise of stock options, was € € 92.1 million for the first quarter 2026, an decrease of € 66.7 million versus the first quarter of 2025, with the higher EBITDA more than offset by higher working capital absorption and income tax paid.

Shareholders' equity was € 2,060.3 million.

CORPORATE DEVELOPMENT NEWS AND OTHER KEY EVENTS

PIPELINE UPDATE

The Phase 2 trial evaluating pasireotide for the treatment of post-bariatric hypoglycemia met its primary endpoint (p<0.02)4, with a dose-dependent and significant increase in glucose levels during a standardized meal test. This was associated with a lowering of level 2 and 3 hypoglycemia (NS), in particular in patients with higher baseline hypoglycemia rates (post-hoc analysis). Recordati is scheduled to meet with the FDA to discuss potential next steps.

Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare autoimmune disease, characterized by increased platelet destruction and decreased platelet production/release. Main symptoms represent increased risk of bleeding events, fatigue, decreased quality of life, increased risk of thrombosis (increased morbidity and mortality). Refractory ITP represents a significant unmet need, with around 20-30% failing several lines of therapy. On the basis of early encouraging clinical evidence showing that sutimlimab, by targeting classical complement pathway, can lead to a rapid and sustained platelet response in patients refractory to multiple lines of treatment as well as encouraging FDA feedback, Recordati has decided to advance sutimlimab into a pivotal registrational Phase 3 trial for the treatment of chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP).

On January 5, 2026, the UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) granted marketing authorization for Eligard® for the treatment of hormone dependent advanced prostate cancer and for the treatment of high-risk localized and locally advanced hormone dependent prostate cancer in combination with radiotherapy.

The other lifecycle management programs are progressing in line with plans.

CORPORATE DEVELOPMENT

On January 29, 2026, Recordati announced a collaboration and license agreement with Moderna to develop and commercialize worldwide mRNA-3927, an investigational product for the treatment of propionic acidemia (PA). Under the terms of the agreement, Moderna will continue to lead the development of mRNA-3927, in collaboration with Recordati, and if approved, Recordati will lead global commercialization. mRNA-3927 is a post proof-of-concept, investigational product aimed to restore propionyl-CoA carboxylase (PCC) enzyme activity in patients with propionic acidemia. If approved, this could be the first disease-modifying treatment option on the market for this severe disease. mRNA-3927 is currently being evaluated in a potential registrational clinical study. The target patient enrollment has been reached, with a potential data readout expected by the end of 2026.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The Group's pharmaceutical business includes two segments: Specialty and Primary Care and Rare Diseases. Business is conducted through subsidiaries in Europe, Russia, Türkiye, North Africa, the United States of America, Canada, Mexico, certain South American countries, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, China and South Korea and, in the rest of the world, through licensing agreements with leading pharmaceutical companies. Sales of specialty medicines represent 97.7% of the Group's total revenues.

As already mentioned, total consolidated net revenue for the Group in the first quarter of 2026 was € 713.4 million, compared to € 680.0 million in the first quarter of the previous year (+4.9% or +8.7% on a like-for-like basis5 and at constant exchange rates). Net revenue reflects a solid start to the year, driven by the strong momentum in Rare Diseases, with an adverse FX impact of €29.1 million (mostly from US dollar and from Turkish Lira - with the latter only partly compensated by price inflation). Specialty & Primary Care was broadly stable and in line with expectation.

Cardiovascular revenue grew by 1.5% compared to the first quarter of 2025, thanks to Vazkepa® sales7 mainly in Spain and United Kingdom and to higher volumes of Pitavastatin® mainly in Russia and Türkiye. This performance has been partially offset by lower sales of Cardicor in Italy following the license termination, lower sales of lercanidipine in international business and lower volumes of Beloc-ZOC® in Germany.

Urology sales decreased by 4.3% compared to the first quarter of 2025 mainly due to lower volumes of Tergynan® in Russia (phasing) and Urorec® (silodosin) softer performance mainly on international business. This is partially offset by Avodart®/Duodart® which grew by +7.9% driven by Spain, together with Eligard®, which continues to show a strong in market performance.

Gastrointestinal revenue grew by 2.1% compared to the same period of last year, with both volume and price growth of Procto-Glyvenol® mainly in Italy and Russia, partially offset by lower volumes of Claversal® in Germany.

Sales of seasonal flu products declined by 12.8% compared to the first quarter of 2025, driven by a milder season in the key markets.

Sales of pharmaceutical chemicals, which comprise active substances produced in the Campoverde plant in Italy for the international pharmaceutical industry, were € 16.6 million, showing a growth of 0.6% compared to the same period of the previous year.

‌6 The 2025 figures have been restated to reflect the reclassification of certain brands from Other Therapeutic areas to Cardiovascular and Gastrointestinal areas in 2026. The amount of reclassification for Q1 2025 is as follows: €2.5 million from Other Therapeutic areas to Cardiovascular area and €4.4 million from Other Therapeutic area to Gastrointestinal area.

‌7 Vazkepa® Marketing Authorization transition has been completed in almost all countries.

The performance of the main products for Specialty and Primary Care, which include specialties from Recordati's original research and those acquired via the acquisition of products rights for various markets and license agreements for multiple territories, is shown in the table below.

* Signifor® € 34.4 million and Isturisa® € 86.2 million in 2026, versus € 32.4 million and € 55.0 million respectively in 2025.

The endocrinology franchise totalled € 120,7 million, up by 38.1%, driven mainly by the continued patients' uptake for Isturisa® in US, which generated € 86.2 million in revenue in the first quarter 2026 or 56.8% versus prior year and Signifor® with revenue continuing to grow and reaching € 34.4 million or 6.3% versus prior year.

The main products in the rare Hemo-Oncological segment contributed € 113.2 million revenue in the first quarter 2026, +18.2% compared to 2025. Strong performance of Enjaymo® (revenue of 43,9 million, +37.6%) mostly in US, Japan, Germany and Italy. Positive performance of Qarziba® (revenue of € 42.9 million, +13.9% vs Q1 2025), also thanks to phasing in Brazil and China and across most EMEA territories.

The metabolic and other treatment areas (excluding endocrinology and oncology) reported € 58.5 million revenue, showing a decrease of 18.3% compared to the same period in 2025, mainly due to Carbaglu® softer sales across most European territories, delayed shipments to Iran, and phasing in Russia. Softer sales have been registered also for Panhematin®, mostly in US.

Net revenue in Russia excludes sales of rare disease products which are sold via international and local distributors.

The Group's pharmaceutical business in the US is dedicated to marketing products for the treatment of Rare Diseases. Sales in the first quarter of 2026 were € 151.6 million, up by 25.1% (in local currency +39.1%). This growth reflects the strong growth of major brands such as Isturisa® and Signifor® (endocrinology products) as well as the strong performance of Enjaymo® (oncology product).

Sales of pharmaceutical specialties in Italy were € 95.9 million, increasing by 1.1% compared to the same period of the previous year. Sales of Specialty and Primary Care were € 85.1 million, slightly softer compared to the first quarter of 2025 (-0.5%) and mainly due to Aircort® and Cardicor®, partially offset by the good performance of Avodart®, Zanidip® and Procto-Glyvenol®.

Sales of products for the treatment of Rare Diseases amounted to € 10.8 million, up by 16.1% driven by Enjaymo® strong performance, Qarziba® and both endocrinology products Signifor® and Isturisa®.

Sales in Spain accounted for € 61.8 million, up by 12.0% compared to the same period of previous year, increasing across both Specialty and Primary Care and Rare Diseases. Sales of Specialty and Primary Care were € 51.8 million up by 11.7% mainly due to the contribution of Vazkepa® margin sharing, Duodart®, Casenlax®, Reagila® and Alipza®

Sales of products for the treatment of Rare Diseases amounted to € 10.0 million, up by 13.8% due to the growth of the oncology portfolio with Qarziba®, Sylvant® and Fotivda® and the endocrinology product Isturisa®.

Sales in France, at € 47.9 million, were up by 3.2%. Sales in the Specialty and Primary Care segment were €

36.2 million, with an increase of 1.9% mainly driven by Methadone®, Reselip®, Eligard® and the launch of Eumill® in the second quarter of 2025.

Sales of products for the treatment of Rare Diseases amounted to € 11.7 million, up by 7.5%, mainly driven by Isturisa®, benefiting also from one-off, and the good performance of Signifor.

Sales in Germany were € 41.2 million, with a decrease of 6.9% compared to the same period of the previous year. Sales in Rare Diseases were € 19.3 million, increasing by 5.6% thanks to the strong performance of Enjaymo®, as well as the continued growth of Sylvant® and the endocrinology portfolio with Signifor® and Isturisa®. This increase is partially offset by the lower performance of the Specialty and Primary care segment that totalled € 21.9 million, decreasing by 15.7%, mainly due to exiting low tenders' margin and also impacted by lower Betaloc® and Claversal® sales.

Sales in Türkiye were € 40.4 million, decreasing by 4.3% with a negative currency exchange effect of € 9.6 million, compared to the prior year. The effect of applying IAS 29 "Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies" to activities in Türkiye caused a positive effect on net revenue of € 1.2 million, while the specific provisions of IAS 21 (difference between translation at average FX vs end of period FX) resulted almost neutral, with a net positive impact on revenues thus of approximately € 1.2 million.

The Turkish subsidiary's sales in local currency were up by 21.5%.

Sales of products in the Specialty and Primary care business were € 39.1 million down by 2.3% compared to previous year. This decline was mainly due to unfavourable exchange rates, which were not fully compensated by price increases. Volume growth remained strong, driven by robust performance of key brands such as Alipza®, Eligard® and local brands like Mictonorm®.

Sales of products for the treatment of Rare Diseases amounted to € 1.3 million, decreasing by 41.5% mainly due to Qarziba® and Cystadrops®.

Sales generated in Russia, Ukraine and in the countries within the Commonwealth of Independent States (C.I.S.) were € 39.4 million, down by 6.3% compared to the same period of the previous year. The estimated positive exchange rate effect of € 1 million is mainly related to Russian ruble (€1.7 million), partially offset by negative exchange rate of Ukrainian hryvnia (€ -0.7 million). Sales in the Specialty and Primary Care in Russia were in local currency RUB 2,385.8 million, down by 8.1% over the same period of the previous year. The decrease in Russia is mainly driven by Tergynan® phasing and milder Cough Cold season partially offset by the growth of Livazo® and Procto-Glyvenol®.

Sales of products for the treatment of Rare Diseases in this area amounted to € 6.7 million, with a decrease of 15.9% mainly due to the phasing of Qarziba® shipments to Russia, partially offset by the registration of Isturisa® in the country.

Sales in Portugal were € 18.2 million, up by 3.0% compared to the same period of the previous year. In Specialty and Primary Care, growth was driven mainly by Eligard® and Reagila® and for OTC products Transact Lat® and Microlax® by both volume and price increase. The growth is partially offset by sales of products for the treatment of rare diseases that amounted to € 0.9 million, decreasing by 19.1% compared the to the first quarter of 2025 mainly due to the lower sales of Qarziba®.

Sales in other Central and Eastern European countries, at € 51.9 million, include the sales from Recordati subsidiaries in Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary and the Baltic countries, in addition to sales of rare disease treatments in this area. In the first quarter of 2026, overall sales increased by 6.0%. Sales in Specialty and Primary care segment were € 41.0 million, up by 3.5% mainly thanks to the growth of Eligard® and Procto-Glyvenol®. Sales of products for the treatment of rare diseases in this area, amounting to € 11.0 million, increased by 16.6% compared to the first quarter of 2025, mainly driven by the growth in oncology products, particularly Qarziba® and Sylvant®.

Sales in other countries in Western Europe accounted for € 44.4 million up 9.2% compared to the same period of previous year and include sales of products for Specialty & Primary Care and Rare Diseases in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Greece, Switzerland, Nordic countries (Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Iceland) and in BeNelux.

Net revenue amounted to € 713.4 million, up by € 33.5 million compared to the first quarter of 2025. For a detailed analysis, please refer to the previous chapter "Review of Operations".

Adjusted gross profit, net of the impact of non-cash charges arising from the allocation of the purchase price of acquisitions to the gross margin of acquired inventory as foreseen by IFRS 3, was € 510.8 million or 71.6% of revenue, up by 6.2% reflecting the strong revenue performance and the positive mix effect.

Gross profit was € 510.8 million, 71.6% of revenue, increasing by 11.3% compared to the first quarter of 2025, thanks to the operating performance and due to the negative impact in 2025 of € 22.4 million arising from the application of IFRS 3 on sales of residual inventory acquired with EUSA Pharma and on sales of inventory

acquired in the context of the acquisition of rights of Enjaymo®

Selling expenses were € 147.8 million, an increase of 5.8% compared to the same period of the previous year, with a 20.7% ratio to revenue, substantially aligned as compared to 20.6% in the first quarter 2025 and absorbing the higher investments mainly to drive the growth opportunity for Isturisa® as well as the Vazkepa® launch.

General and administrative expenses increased by 7.9% owing to the strengthening of the general coordination structure and to investments into new IT systems to support the Group's growth.

Other expenses, net of other income, amounted to € 2.1 million compared to € 1.5 million in the first quarter of 2025.

Adjusted operating income of € 231.1 million increased by 5.4% compared to the same period of the previous year, with a ratio to revenue of 32.4% broadly aligned with prior year. Operating income was € 229.6 million in the first quarter of 2026, up 17.3% over the first quarter of 2025 reflecting the gross margin-related to non-cash charges of € 22.4 million in 2025, mostly arising from the unwind of the fair value step up of the acquired Enjaymo® inventory. Non-recurring costs were € 1.5 million versus € 1.1 million in the first quarter of 2025.

Total amortisation amounted to € 52.5 million, of which € 43.0 million related to intangible assets, up by €

0.9 million over the first quarter of the previous year, and € 9.5 million relating to property, plant and

equipment, up by € 0.6 million over the same period the previous year.

RECORDATI S.p.A. and SUBSIDIARIES

EXPLANATORY NOTES

  1. GENERAL INFORMATION

    The Interim Report for the Recordati Group for the period ended 31 March 2026 was prepared by Recordati Industria Chimica e Farmaceutica S.p.A. (the "Company" or the "Parent Company" and, together with its subsidiaries, the "Group"), with headquarters at Via Matteo Civitali no. 1 - 20148 Milan, Italy, and was approved by the Board of Directors on 12 May 2026, which authorised distribution to the public.

    The Interim Financial Statements as of 31 March 2026 include the economic-equity position of the Parent Company and all its subsidiaries.

    The scope of consolidation did not change in the first quarter of 2026.

    The companies included in the scope of consolidation, their percentage of ownership and a description of their activity are set out in Note 27.

    These financial statements are presented in euro (€), rounded to thousands of euro, except where

    indicated otherwise.

  2. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

    These interim consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria prescribed by the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the European Union, but do not include the full information required for the annual financial statements and must therefore be read together with the annual report for the full year ended 31 December 2025, prepared in accordance with the IFRS issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and endorsed by the European Union pursuant to Regulation (EC) no. 1606/2002.

    The preparation of the interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim financial statements. If in the future these estimates and assumptions, which are based on management's best judgement, should deviate from the actual circumstances, these will be modified in relation to the circumstances. In making the estimates and assumptions related to the preparation of these interim financial statements, the impacts, even potential ones, deriving from the Russia-Ukraine crisis were taken into account. The Group operates on the Russian market, in compliance with current regulations, with revenue in the first quarter of 2026 totalling 4.6% of the Group's total revenue, as well as on the Ukrainian market, with revenue in the first quarter of 2026 accounting for 0.7% of the total. The Group continues to monitor the conflict, as well as any geopolitical developments and related consequences on corporate strategies, to adopt mechanisms to protect its competitive position, investments, corporate performance, and resources. The same approach is also adopted in relation to potential effects arising from any changes to the American legislation that could affect the pharmaceutical sector. The Group operates on the US market with revenue in the first quarter of 2026 totalling 21.5% of the Group's total revenues. Regarding the conflict that broke out on 28 February 2026 in the Persian Gulf and involving several countries, while it only operates in certain parts of the affected region of the Middle East, the Group continues to monitor the conflict and geopolitical developments to assess their potential impact on the Group's personnel, supply chain and activities.

    In preparing these interim accounts, also in consideration of the analysis performed and the achievement of the expected results at Group and individual Cash Generating Unit (CGU) level, and the relevant sector, no elements were currently identified that could have a significant impact on figures in the financial statements. Valuation exercises, in particular complex calculations such as those required to identify impairment loss, are carried out in depth only for the preparation of the year-end consolidated financial statements, except when there are impairment loss indicators, which would require an immediate estimate of the loss.

    In relation to financial instruments measured at fair value, IFRS 13 requires the classification of these instruments according to the standard's hierarchy levels, which reflect the significance of the inputs used in establishing the fair value. The following levels are used:

    • Level 1: unadjusted assets or liabilities subject to valuation on an active market;

    • Level 2: inputs other than prices listed under the previous point, which are observable directly (prices) or indirectly (derivatives from the prices) on the market;

    • Level 3: input which is not based on observable market data.

    Disclosure of the net financial position is included in the section "Management Review" of this Report.

    Application of new accounting principles

    The accounting policies applied in these interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the last annual financial statements.

  3. NET REVENUE

    The Group's operations and main revenue streams are those described in the section on accounting standards in the last annual financial statements. The Group's revenue is derived from contracts with customers and is not subject to significant seasonal fluctuations, except for those in the cough and cold therapeutic area for which, mainly due to lower incidence of flu in Russia and Italy, performance in the first quarter of 2026 was in fact negative over the same period of the previous year.

    During the first quarter of 2026, net revenue amounted to € 713.4 million, up compared to € 680.0 million in the same period during 2025. It included € 5.2 million relating to Vazkepa®, of which the rights were acquired from Amarin on 24 June 2025.

    Net revenue can be broken down as follows:

    The effect of the application of IAS 29 "Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies" to activities in Türkiye, taking account of the provisions of IAS 21 "Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates", had a positive effect on net revenue of € 1.2 million (negative of € 1.0 million in the first quarter of 2025). It should be noted that the Argentine company did not recognise revenues.

    Royalties are related to products in the Rare Diseases segment for € 1.3 million and to those of the Specialty & Primary Care segment for € 1.1 million.

    The item "Various revenue" includes € 2.5 million, corresponding to the margin on sales of the cardiovascular drug Vazkepa® achieved during the first quarter of 2026 by Amarin on behalf of Recordati in the countries where the ownership of the marketing authorization has not been transferred yet to Recordati.

    In the tables below, net revenue is disaggregated by therapeutic area and by geographic area by country. The tables also include a reconciliation of the disaggregated revenue with the Group's reportable segments.

  4. OPERATING EXPENSES

    Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2026 amounted to € 483.8 million, down slightly compared to the € 484.2 million for the corresponding period the previous year, and are classified by function as follows:

    The cost of sales totalled € 202.6 million, down compared to the first three months in 2025 and representing 28.4% of revenue, lower than the 32.5% in the same period of the previous year. This is mainly attributable to the negative impact in 2025 of € 22.4 million arising from the revaluation, in accordance with IFRS 3 standard, of the acquired inventory at the date of the acquisition of EUSA Pharma and of the rights of Enjaymo®, while in the first quarter of 2026 there has been no impact as all inventories that had been acquired at the date of the two acquisitions had already been sold in prior periods. The effect of the application of IAS 29 "Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies" and several provisions of IAS 21 "Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates" to activities in Türkiye was €

    4.4 million compared to € 4.2 million in the first three months of 2025. It should be noted that the

    Argentine company has a cost of sales equal to zero.

    Selling expenses were € 147.8 million, an increase of 5.8% compared to the same period of the previous year, with a 20.7% ratio to revenue, substantially aligned as compared to 20.6% in the first quarter 2025 and absorbing the higher investments to mainly drive the growth opportunity for Isturisa® as well as the Vazkepa® launch.

    Research and development expenses were € 86.3 million, an increase of 7.8% compared to those in the first quarter of the previous year with a 12.1% ratio to revenue, slightly higher as compared to 11.8% in the first quarter 2025 (reflecting the additional investments in medical information and Clinical studies activities on Rare Diseases franchise).

    General and administrative expenses increased by 7.9% owing to the strengthening of the general coordination structure and to investments in progress with reference to new IT systems to support the Group's growth.

    The proportion of raw material consumption to net revenue was 22.2%, lower than the 23.4% during the same period in 2025 due to positive sales mix.

    The item "Payroll costs" increased by € 3.6 million compared to the first quarter of 2025 driven by higher number of employees and salary inflation. In 2023, the Parent Company adopted a new long-term incentive plan called "2023-2025 Performance Shares Plan" benefiting certain Group employees (see Note 16). The cost pertaining to the first quarter of 2026, determined based on IFRS 2, amounted to €

    4.8 million, an increase on the € 3.2 million over the same period of the previous year, mainly due to the impact of the costs related to the attribution of 8 May 2025.On the other hand, the balance no longer includes charges for stock option plans, since the last grant in 2022 carried out as part of the 2021-2023 stock options plan reached maturity in May 2025; the recognised cost in the first quarter of 2025 was €

    0.8 million.

    Some Group employees were designated as beneficiaries of incentive plans with a five-year vesting period, granted and entirely funded by Rossini Luxembourg S.à r.l., an indirect shareholder of Recordati S.p.A., and will benefit from a return at the expiry of the plans term if they have met a number of performance conditions. The measurement according to the accounting standard IFRS 2 led to an expense in the first quarter 2026 income statement of € 0.9 million, which also includes the incentive plan granted by Rossini Luxembourg S.à r.l. to the Chief Executive Officer of the Recordati Group.

    Amortisation and depreciation equalled € 52.5 million, of which € 43.0 million related to intangible

    assets, up by € 0.9 million compared to the first quarter of the previous year, and € 9.5 million relating to property, plant and equipment, up by € 0.6 million over the same period of the previous year.

    "Utilities and consumables" include mainly costs for electricity and gas, consumables and IT services and

    the balance is up compared to the first quarter of 2025.

    The item "Other expenses" includes costs for consulting and external services, promotion and clinical trials. The decrease is mainly determined by the absence of non-cash charges arising from the revaluation at fair value of the inventory acquired as part of the EUSA Pharma and Enjaymo® transactions pursuant to IFRS 3, which are no longer present in 2026 following the sale of all acquired inventory and had amounted to € 22.4 million in the first quarter of 2025.

  5. NET FINANCIAL INCOME AND EXPENSES

    In the first quarter of 2026 and same period in 2025, the balance of financial components was negative

    for € 28.9 million and € 30.9 million, respectively.

    The main items are summarised as follows:

    The decrease in the interest expense on loans for € 2.6 million was mainly due to lower net debt and the reduction in the cost of money following the decisions by the main central banks. Note number 17 contains the details of the loan contracts.

    Net exchange losses, most unrealised, amounted to € 1.9 million, slightly higher than those in the first

    quarter of 2025.

    Hyperinflation in the first quarter of 2026 and in the corresponding period of the previous year had a

    negative impact for € 2.0 million.

  6. INCOME TAXES

    Income taxes amounted to € 47.7 million and include income taxes levied on all consolidated companies as well as the Italian regional tax on production (IRAP) which is levied on all Italian companies. The amount includes provisioning of € 1.3 million for the effects deriving from application of the Pillar Two regulations in the tax jurisdictions of Ireland, Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates.

    The effective income tax rate is 23.8%, slightly lower than the 24.2% in the first quarter of 2025 due to positive country mix.

    • € 3.1 million referring to clinical studies that comply with the criteria set by the IAS 38 accounting

      standard on capitalisation;

    • € 2.3 million for investments in software.

      The net change in decreases is mainly related to the Colopeg® product, the rights to which were sold for

      an amount of € 0.7 million, equal to the net book value.

      "Other changes" includes the conversion into euro of the intangible assets held and recognised in different currencies, for a net decrease of € 8.1 million compared to 31 December 2025, as a result of the revaluation of the Swiss franc and the US dollar.

  9. GOODWILL

    Goodwill as of 31 March 2026 and 31 December 2025 amounted to € 802.8 million and € 795.7 million

    respectively. The goodwill underwent changes following the adjustments recognised due to changes in

    the exchange rates required under IAS 21 "Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates" and from the application of IAS 29 "Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies":

    Net goodwill as of 31 March 2026, amounting to € 802.8 million, was divided into the two cash

    generating units (CGU) as follows:

    • for € 538.4 million to the Specialty & Primary Care sector (or SPC);

    • for € 264.4 million to the CGU referring to medicines for Rare Disease treatments.

      In compliance with IFRS 3 goodwill is not systematically amortised. Instead, it is tested for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if specific events or circumstances indicate a possible loss of value. During the period no events or circumstances arose to indicate possible value loss related to any of the above-mentioned items.

  10. OTHER EQUITY INVESTMENTS AND SECURITIES

    As of 31 March 2026, these amounted to € 14.5 million, down by € 1.7 million compared to 31 December

    2025.

    The main investment refers to the UK company PureTech Health plc, specialising in investments in startup companies dedicated to innovative therapies, medical devices and new research technologies. Starting from 19 June 2015, the shares of the Company were admitted for trading on the London Stock Exchange. As of 31 March 2026, the total fair value of the 9,554,140 shares held was € 11.9 million. The value of the investment was consequently adjusted to the stock exchange value and fell by € 1.8 million, compared to 31 December 2025, with a counter-item accounted for, net of the related tax effect, in the statement of gains and losses recognised in shareholders' equity.

    During 2025, the American subsidiary Recordati Rare Diseases Inc. finalised an investment of US$ 3 million in STRM.BIO Inc., a biotechnology company that is developing a non-viral cell-derived delivery platform for safe, targeted and scalable in-vivo administration of gene therapies, initially focused on rare haematological diseases such as Fanconi anaemia and in-vivo CAR T-cell therapies, using megakaryocyte-derived vesicles to overcome the limitations of viral and synthetic systems in the context of gene editing, RNA therapies and immune cell engineering. The value of the investment as of 31 March 2026 is € 2.6 million.

    The value of the investment in the company Phaxiam Therapeutics S.A., resulting from the merger in 2023 between Erytech Pharma S.A. and Pherecydes Pharma S.A., listed on the French regulated market and in which 43,104 shares are held, was zeroed in 2025 following the compulsory winding-up announced by that same company. The announcement specifies that removal of the listing will be requested and that no repayments may be made to shareholders.

  11. OTHER NON-CURRENT ASSETS

    As of 31 March 2026, this item amounted to € 10.7 million, in line with 31 December 2025, and mainly

    refers to receivables falling due beyond twelve months. The item also includes the discounted receivable

    for € 1.2 million in respect of ARS Pharmaceuticals following the signing of the agreement in February

    2023 for the return of the rights on ARS-1.

  12. DEFERRED TAX ASSETS

    As of 31 March 2026, deferred tax assets amounted to € 142.7 million, up by € 6.2 million compared to 31 December 2025, mainly arising from the temporary differences related to the elimination of unrealised profits on intercompany sales.

  13. CURRENT ASSETS

    Inventories as of 31 March 2026 amounted to € 545.8 million (€ 539.8 million as of 31 December 2025), net of provisions for the impairment of pharmaceutical products nearing expiry and slow-moving products of € 21.3 million (€ 18.3 million as of 31 December 2025).

    Trade receivables as of 31 March 2026 amounted to € 659.1 million, increasing by € 88.9 million compared to 31 December 2025. The balance is net of the provision for impairment for € 16.7 million, increasing by € 2.1 million compared to 31 December 2025. This item is considered consistent with positions which, for the particular nature of the customers or the destination markets, may be difficult to collect. Average days sales outstanding are 71, compared to 67 days calculated in late March 2025 due to the prolonged collection times in certain countries, nevertheless deemed temporary.

    Other receivables amounted to € 105.7 million, down by € 0.8 million compared to 31 December 2025. This item also includes € 3.1 million relating to the short-term present value of the receivable in respect of ARS Pharmaceuticals, following the signing of the agreement in February 2023 for the return of the rights on ARS-1.

    Other current assets were at € 29.7 million and refer mainly to prepaid expenses.

  14. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE (included in current assets)

    As of 31 March 2026, the value of derivative instruments included under this item amounted to € 7.4

    million.

    The measurement at market (fair value) of cross currency swaps entered into by the Parent Company to hedge the US$ 75 million loan issued on 30 September 2014 gave rise to a € 1.3 million asset as of 31 March 2026. This amount represents the potential benefit of a lower value in euro of the future dollar denominated principal and interest flows, in view of the revaluation of the foreign currency with respect to the moment in which the loan and hedging instruments were negotiated. In particular, the valuation refers solely to the derivative hedging of the US$ 25 million tranche of the loan, provided by UniCredit. The US$ 50 million tranche of the loan was extinguished early in September 2025, when, in addition to the US$ 5 million instalment nearing maturity, the instalments totalling US$ 10 million originally due in 2026 were also repaid. The related derivative hedging taken out with Mediobanca was extinguished at the same time.

    The measurement at market (fair) value of the interest rate swaps hedging some loans gave rise to total assets of € 5.6 million, representing the opportunity of paying in the future, for the term of the loans, the agreed interest rates rather than the variable rates currently expected. The amount relates to the interest rate swaps entered into by the Parent Company to hedge the interest rates on the syndicated

    loan concluded in 2024 to fund the acquisition of the rights to Enjaymo® (€ 5.2 million) and on the loan finalised in the first half of 2022 (€ 0.4 million) (see Note 17).

    As of 31 March 2026, other hedging transactions were in place on foreign currency positions, the measurement of which was positive for € 0.5 million compared to the positive figure of € 3.8 million as of 31 December 2025, with the difference recognised to the income statement and offsetting the exchange gains arising from the valuation of the underlying positions at current exchange rates.

    The fair value of these hedging derivatives is measured at level 2 of the hierarchy provided for in the IFRS 13 accounting standard. The fair value is equal to the current value of the estimated future cash flows. Estimates of future floating-rate cash flows are based on quoted swap rates, futures prices and interbank borrowing rates. Estimated cash flows are discounted using a yield curve which reflects the relevant benchmark interbank rate used by market participants for pricing interest rate swaps.

  15. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

    As of 31 March 2026, the balance of this item amounted to € 380.5 million, decreasing by € 48.4 million compared to 31 December 2025, and is mainly denominated in euro, US dollars, pound sterling and comprise current account deposits and short-term time deposits.

  16. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

    Shareholders' Equity as of 31 March 2026 was € 2,060.3 million, an increase of € 140.5 million compared

    to that as of 31 December 2025 for the following reasons:

    • increase of € 153.1 million from net income;

    • increase of € 4.8 million from cost of performance share plans set-off directly in equity;

    • decrease of € 43.9 million from the purchase of 934,973 treasury shares;

    • increase of € 0.3 million from the disposal of 7,000 treasury shares to service the stock option plans

      and performance shares;

    • increase of € 3.3 million from the recognition of cross currency swaps, the underlying loans and interest rate swaps, hedged foreign currency loans and interest rate swap transactions, net of the relative tax effect;

    • decrease of € 1.8 million from the application of IFRS 9, almost entirely attributable to the change

      in fair value of the equity investment in PureTech Health plc, net of the relative tax effect;

    • increase of € 7.6 million for foreign currency translation adjustments;

    • increase of € 17.1 million for other changes, almost entirely attributable to the effects of application

      of IAS 29.

      As of 31 March 2026, the Company has two stock option plans benefiting certain Group employees: the 2018-2022 plan with the grant on 3 August 2018 and the 2021-2023 plan with the grants of 6 May 2021, 1 December 2021 and 24 February 2022. The strike price for the options is the average of the Parent Company's listed share price during the 30 days prior to the grant date. The options are vested over a period of five years, over four tranches starting from the second year in the case of the grant in 2018 and the three years, and in a single tranche for the 2021 and 2022 grants. They expire if they are not exercised within the eighth year after the grant date. Options cannot be exercised if the employee leaves the Company before they are vested, save for derogation approved by the competent corporate bodies.

      In 2023, the Parent Company adopted a long-term incentive plan called "2023-2025 Performance Shares Plan" benefiting certain Group employees. The plan provides for three grants of rights to receive Company shares free of charge, one for each year covered, which, following a vesting period of three years, will allow recipients to receive shares of the Parent Company up to an amount of 175% of the amount originally granted, based on the trend of certain performance indicators. However, these rights will expire if the employee leaves the Company before they are vested. The grants took place on 27 June 2023 for 440,485 rights, 9 May 2024 for 437,634 rights and 8 May 2025 for 511,380 rights. The cost pertaining to the first quarter of 2026, determined based on IFRS 2, amounted to € 4.8 million, an increase on the € 3.2 million over the same period the previous year.

      As of 31 March 2026, 5,697,240 treasury shares were held in the portfolio, an increase of 927,973 shares compared to 31 December 2025. The change was due to the purchase of 934,973 shares for an amount of € 43.9 million, and to the disposal of 7,000 shares within the scope of long-term incentive plans, particularly in relation to the exercise of stock options for a value of € 0.3 million. The total cost to purchase the treasury shares in the portfolio was € 283.0 million, with an average unit price of € 49.67.

      Some Group employees were designated as beneficiaries of incentive plans with a five-year vesting period, granted and entirely funded by Rossini Luxembourg S.à r.l., an indirect shareholder of Recordati S.p.A., and will benefit from a return at the expiry of the plans term if they have met a number of performance conditions. The measurement according to IFRS 2 led to an expense in the first quarter 2026 income statement of € 0.9 million, which also includes the portion relating to the incentive plans granted by Rossini Luxembourg S.à r.l. to the Chief Executive Officer of the Recordati Group.

  17. LOANS

    As of 31 March 2026, loans amounted to € 2,350.4 million, down by a net € 93.2 million compared to 31

    December 2025.

    This item includes the liabilities deriving from the application of the accounting standard IFRS 16, representing the obligation to make the payments provided for in the existing leases for a total amount of € 50.7 million, a net increase of € 1.5 million compared to 31 December 2025.

    During the first quarter of 2026, loan liabilities increased by € 6.0 million, relating entirely to new lease contracts. Repayments over the year totalled € 99.4 million, of which € 96.4 million were for bank loan repayments and € 3.0 million for lease liabilities.

    The effect of the translation of loans in foreign currencies and of expenses incurred to place the loans, together with the early termination of some leases, determined a total net increase of € 0.2 million compared to 31 December 2025.

    The main loans outstanding are:

    1. Bond loan issued by the Parent Company on 30 September 2025 for € 125.0 million. The main economic conditions provide for a fixed interest rate with half-yearly payment of interest and a duration of 10 years, with a single-instalment repayment on 28 September 2035.

      The bonded loan includes covenants which, if not met, could lead to a request for immediate repayment of the loan.

      The financial covenants, measured quarterly, are the following:

      • the ratio of consolidated net financial position to consolidated EBITDA (determined for a period of twelve consecutive months) must be less than three;

      • the ratio of consolidated operating income to consolidated net financial expenses (determined for a period of twelve consecutive months) must be more than three.

        These parameters are being observed.

    2. € 345.0 million loan established by the Parent Company with a consortium of national and international lenders led by Mediobanca. On 25 June 2025, an initial amount of € 315.0 million was agreed, before being increased by € 30.0 million in July after another lender joined. The main terms include a variable interest rate of the six-month Euribor (with a zero floor) plus a fixed spread and single-instalment repayment on 25 June 2030. The issue of € 280.0 million, net of advisory and upfront fees, took place on 30 June 2025, while the remaining € 65.0 million were issued in August of the same year.

      The loan includes covenants which, if not observed, could lead to a request for immediate repayment.

      The financial covenants, measured semi-annually, are the following:

      • the ratio of consolidated net financial position to consolidated EBITDA (determined for a period of twelve consecutive months) must be less than three;

      • the ratio of consolidated operating income to consolidated net financial expenses (determined for a period of twelve consecutive months) must be more than three.

    3. Loan for a total of € 850,0 million taken out by Recordati S.p.A. in two different stages.

      On 30 October 2024, the Parent Company entered into a loan with Mediobanca, UniCredit and Natixis intended for the acquisition of the rights to Enjaymo®, for a total maximum amount of € 850.0 million, guaranteed for € 700.0 million on an equal basis. A syndication process was launched immediately after, which, by involving other credit institutions, made it possible to raise an additional

      € 150.0 million while reallocating the overall value of € 850.0 million among the participants. The terms of the loan provide for a variable interest rate at the six-month Euribor (with a zero floor) plus a variable spread based on a step up/step down mechanism on changes in the Leverage Ratio, and a five-year term with semi-annual repayment of the principal starting 31 March 2027, with the final instalment on 30 October 2029. Disbursement, net of structuring and up-front fees, took place in the final quarter of 2024. The loan was partially hedged with interest rate swaps, qualifying as a cash flow hedge, effectively converting the hedged portion to a fixed interest rate. As of 31 March 2026, the fair value of the derivatives was measured as positive for a total of € 5.2 million, which was recognised directly as an increase in equity and as an increase in the asset item "Derivative instruments measured at fair value" (see Note 14).

      The loan includes covenants which, if not observed, could lead to a request for immediate repayment.

      The financial covenants, measured quarterly, are the following:

      • the ratio of consolidated net financial position to consolidated EBITDA (determined for a period of twelve consecutive months) must be less than three;

The outstanding debt as of 31 March 2026 amounted to € 52.3 million.

      The loan includes covenants which, if not met, could lead to a request for immediate repayment of the loan.

      The financial covenants, measured semi-annually, are the following:

      • the ratio of consolidated net financial position to consolidated EBITDA (determined for a period of twelve consecutive months) must be less than three;

The loan is formed of two independent loans for € 300.0 million and € 100.0 million respectively, both at a variable interest rate equal to the six-month Euribor (with a zero floor) plus a variable spread based on a step-up/step-down mechanism on changes in the Leverage Ratio, with an interest payment every six months and a five-year term. The loan for a higher amount, disbursed on 14 June 2023, will be repaid in semi-annual instalments of increasing value starting from April 2024, with settlement in May 2028. The loan was partially hedged with interest rate swaps, qualifying as a cash flow hedge, effectively converting the hedged portion to a fixed interest rate.

The terms of the loan provide for a variable interest rate equal to the six-month Euribor (with a zero floor) plus a variable spread, an interest payment every six months and a 10-year term with semi-annual repayments on a straight-line basis starting from October 2025 for 70% of the principal and repayment in April 2033 for the remaining 30%. The disbursement took place on 18 May 2023. The debt outstanding as of 31 March 2026 amounted to € 47.6 million.

From July 2022, the loan was partially and progressively hedged with an interest rate swap, qualifying as a cash flow hedge, effectively converting the hedged portion to a fixed interest rate. The fair-value measurement of derivative instruments as of 30 September 2025 was in some cases positive, for a total of € 0.4 million, which was posted as a direct increase of net equity and an increase to the asset item "Derivative instruments measured at fair value" (see Note 14), but in other cases was negative for a total of € 0.3 million, which was directly posted as a decrease in net equity and an increase to the liability item "Derivative instruments measured at fair value" (see Note 21).

  21. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE (included in current liabilities)

As of 31 March 2026, the value of derivative instruments included under this item amounted to € 5.1

million.

The measurement at market (fair) value as of 31 March 2026 of the interest rate swaps hedging some loans gave rise to a total € 1.1 million liability, which represents the unrealised opportunity of paying in the future, for the duration of the loans, the variable rates currently expected instead of the rates agreed. The amount relates to the interest rate swaps entered into by the Parent Company to hedge the interest rates on loans with lender consortia in 2023 (€ 0.8 million) and in 2022 (€ 0.3 million).

As of 31 March 2026, other hedging transactions were in place on foreign currency positions, the measurement of which was negative for € 4.0 million compared to the € 2.1 million as of 31 December 2025, with the difference recognised to the income statement and offsetting the exchange gains arising from the valuation of the underlying positions at current exchange rates.

The fair value of these hedging derivatives is measured at level two of the hierarchy provided for in accounting standard IFRS 13 (see note 2). The fair value is equal to the current value of the estimated future cash flows. Estimates of future floating-rate cash flows are based on quoted swap rates, futures prices and interbank borrowing rates. Estimated cash flows are discounted using a yield curve which
