INTERIM GROUP MANAGEMENT REPORT Report on earnings, financial, and asset positionEarnings position
STRATEC increased its consolidated sales year-on-year by 5.8 % on a constant-currency basis (nominal: 5.2 %) to
€ 118.6 million in the first half of 2025 (H1/2024: € 112.7 million). At € 34.9 million, Systems sales fell slightly short of the previous year's figure (H1/2024: € 35.8 million). This reflects the fact that start-up curves for new product launches remain flatter than usual. For molecular diagnostics systems, by contrast, which had witnessed disruptions to demand in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the stabilization in demand continued. Given rising test volumes and the associated higher level of laboratory capacity utilization rates, sales with Service Parts and Consumables increased to € 53.7 million, corresponding to constant-currency growth of 3.4 % (nominal: 2.8 %) on the previous year's already high figure (H1/2024: € 52.3 million). Driven by a high volume of development activity for new customer projects, the Development and Services division reported significant sales growth of 20.5 % on a constant-currency basis (nominal: 19.9 %) to € 28.8 million (H1/2024: € 24.0 million).

1 Restated pursuant to IAS 8.
Gross profit (gross profit on sales) rose from € 30.5 million to € 32.0 million in the first half of 2025. At 26.9 %, the associated gross margin for the first half of 2025 almost matched the previous year's figure of 27.1 %.
In view of the ongoing high volume of development activity, investments in research and development (gross development expenses) grew from € 28.1 million in the previous year to € 29.0 million in the first six months of 2025. Of this total, € 5.4 million (H1/2024: € 5.6 million) involved expenses not meeting the criteria for capitalization pursuant to IAS 38 (Intangible Assets).
Sales-related expenses decreased from € 6.9 million in the previous year to € 6.5 million in the first half of 2025.
General administration expenses rose from € 11.3 million in the previous year to € 13.0 million in the first half of 2025, with this increase being due among other factors to higher advisory expenses and fees.
The net balance of income and expenses for impairments of financial assets and contract assets amounted to € -0.4 million for the first half of 2025 (H1/2024: € 9k).
The net balance of other operating income and expenses stood at € -1.3 million in the first half of 2025 (H1/2024:
€ 1.0 million). Among other factors, the expenses incurred compared for the currency-related translation of balance sheet items were higher than in the previous year.
