  2. ‌ANNUAL REPORT BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THRACE PLASTICS CO S.A. ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE YEAR FROM 01-01-2025 to 31-12-2025

INTRODUCTION

The present Annual Report by the Board of Directors (hereinafter called as "Re-port") refers to the fiscal year 2024 (01.01.2025 - 31.12.2025). The Report was

prepared in accordance with the relevant provisions of Law 4548/2018 (GOV. GAZ. 104A΄/13.06.2018) as currently in force and of Law 3556/2007 as in effect following its amendment from Law 4374/2016 and 5164/2024, as well as the relevant executive decisions issued by the Board of Directors of the Hellenic Capital Market Commission, and especially the decisions with number 1/434/03.07.2007 and 8/754/14.04.2016, as the latter is valid after its amendment by the decisionς with number 12A/889/31.08.2020 and 10B/1038/30

of the Board of Directors of Hellenic Capital Market Commission and decisions 434/24.02.2025 & 506/07.03.2025.

The Report includes the full information required by law (financial and non-finan-cial information) with a concise as well as comprehensive, objective and adequate manner and with the principle of providing the complete and substantial information with regards to the issues included in such.

Given the fact that the Company prepares consolidated and non-consolidat-ed (stand-alone) financial statements, the present Report constitutes a single report referring mainly to the consolidated financial data of the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates. Any reference to non-con-solidated financial data takes place in certain areas, which have been deemed as necessary by the Board of Directors of the Company for a better understanding of the contents of the report and towards providing investors with the most complete information.

It is noted that the present Report includes, along with the 2025 financial statements, the required by law data and statements in the Annual Financial Report, which concern the financial year ended on 31 December 2025.

The sections of the present Report and the contents of such are in particularly as follows:

SECTION 1: Significant events that took place during the financial year 2025

Below, the most significant events that took place during the fiscal year 2025 are presented:

Macroeconomic Environment, Performance and Prospects of the Group, Climate Issues and Expected Credit Losses.

During 2025, the economic environment largely continued the trends of the previous year, as key macroeconomic factors, such as inflation and cost pressures, as well as geopolitical uncertainties, remained pronounced. The year proved particularly challenging, especially for the European market, where demand remained at low levels, while uncertainty regarding international trade relations intensified, particularly in light of the new U.S. administration, both due to the imposition of tariffs and its overall policy approach.

As a result of these conditions, demand in most markets did not show a significant recovery, while raw material prices remained relatively low. Regarding the Group's business sectors, during the year, demand in the Technical Textiles sector remained low, with only mild signs of recovery in certain applications and geographic areas, whereas in the Packaging sector, demand remained consistently strong.

  1. Group's performance during the fourth quarter of 2025

    In particular, during the fourth quarter of 2025, the following were observed:

    • Demand for products for the construction sector remained at low levels, although showing mild signs of recovery.

    • Low demand was also recorded for products related to the infrastructure

      and large projects sector.

    • Demand for agricultural sector products remained stable.

    • Demand for products for the food packaging sector remained consistently high, particularly in the Greek market.

    • Demand for products in the paint packaging sector remained stable.

    • Energy costs remained consistently high.

    • Transportation costs remained stable, with minor fluctuations.

    • The cost of raw materials and packaging materials remained stable.

    • Borrowing interest rates remained steady.

    At a financial level, the Group's revenue for 2025 amounted to €389.6 million, compared to €370.4 million in 2024, representing an increase of 5.2%. This growth is mainly attributed to higher sales volumes, which increased by 7.2%, despite pressures on average selling prices due to the above-mentioned conditions.

    Regarding operating profitability, Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA) for 2025 reached

    €48.4 million, up 17% compared to €41.4 million in 2024. On an adjusted EBITDA basis, the increase amounted to 14.1%. As for Profit Before Tax (PBT), it reached €19.9 million in 2025, representing an increase of

    45.1% compared to the previous year. This development demonstrates a significant improvement in the Group's operating profitability, despite adverse economic conditions, continued low demand, and an increase in the cost base.

    These results reflect the Group's resilience and its ability to consistently implement its strategy, achieving improved profitability in an environment of increased uncertainty and economic slowdown, while strengthening its market position and shares in its operating markets. Furthermore, investments made in previous years, both in increasing production capacity and in enhancing manufacturing capabilities and vertical integration, along with the Group's strategic choice to expand and diversify sales channels - with a focus on, among others, the "Direct to Market" approach and the creation of new sales teams, have contributed significantly to the Group's profitability growth.

    Regarding liquidity and the operating cycle of subsidiaries, no negative impacts were observed. The Group's Net Debt amounted to €56.9 million, increased compared to the end of 2024 (€34.4 million). This increase is mainly attributed to the strengthening of Working Capital by approximately €15 million, as a result of increased commercial activity and, in particular, higher sales volumes. Receivables increased by approximately €7.7 million, with collection days remaining at levels similar to the previous year. In any case, the level of Net Debt remains relatively low.

  2. Prospects of the Group

    At the beginning of 2026, markets and economies largely exhibited characteristics similar to the previous year. However, the outbreak of the military conflict involv-

    ing the U.S., Israel, and Iran significantly altered market conditions, leading to a sharp increase in raw material prices, disruptions in international transportation, and increased pressures on the supply chain.

    Regarding the Group's operating profitability for the first quarter of 2026, Management estimates that, despite the adverse international conditions, it will significantly exceed that of the first quarter of 2025. As for overall annual profitability, it is not possible to provide a reliable forecast, given the uncertainty arising from the ongoing military conflict and its unpredictable impacts.

    Nevertheless, Management expresses confidence that the Group has the capacity to achieve higher comparable operating profitability in 2026 compared to 2025. Even in the event of further disruptions in international markets, the Group remains optimistic about its long-term growth trajectory and has already implemented the necessary measures to ensure both the availability of raw materials and finished products for its customers, as well as effective adaptation to the particularly demanding market conditions.

    Finally, during the first quarter of 2026, the Group completed the acquisition of the company "BHA Holdings Pty Ltd", which, through its subsidiaries in Australia and New Zealand, has been operating in the Packaging sector for more than forty years. This acquisition is part of the Group's broader strategic plan for the international expansion of its FIBC (mega-bag) activities and for strengthening its presence in the Oceania markets. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, BHA Holdings Pty Ltd reported revenue of AUD 37.6 million (approximately €22.8 million), operating profit (EBITDA) of AUD 4.1 million (approximately €2.5 million), and Profit Be-

    fore Tax of AUD 3.3 million (approximately

    €2.0 million).

  3. Climate issues

    All information regarding climate-related issues concerning the Group is detailed in the Group's Sustainability Report in Section 2. Environmental Information, Chapter ESRS E1. Climate Change. (see section 8 of this report).

  4. Expected credit losses

    There are no expected material credit losses as a result of the current conditions and circumstances. In any case, according to the established policy, a big part of the companies' sales remains insured, while additional measures have been taken to ensure the Group carries out transactions with reliable customers (credit risk assessment, credit scoring, advances, etc.). More information on credit risk can be found in note 3.16 of the financial statements.

    Direct Impact from Geopolitical Conditions

    The ongoing geopolitical instability in the Middle East and the recent escalation of conflicts in the broader region are creating heightened geopolitical risk and increasing uncertainty regarding the potential impact on the global economic environment. These developments have already begun to affect international energy markets, transportation, and global supply chains, while it is estimated that their full impact has not yet been fully reflected. In particular, developments related to maritime navigation and transit through strategically important sea passages, such as the Strait of Hormuz, have already affected transportation costs and international energy markets.The Group does not have significant business activities in the regions directly affected by the conflicts. Its overall exposure to Israel and Palestine remains very limited, with sales in 2025 accounting for 0.44% of the Group's total sales, slightly higher compared to 2024, when they stood at 0.26%. At the same time, the conflict in Ukraine, following the Russian military invasion, continues to generate geopolitical uncertainty and upward pressure on raw materials and products, affecting the overall economic momentum in Eu-

    rope. The Group's exposure to Ukraine and Russia remains minimal, with sales in 2025 accounting for 0.34% of total sales (compared to 0.81% in 2024).

    With regard to the recent military conflict between the U.S./Israel and Iran, it should be noted that the Group has no significant direct impact from the ongoing military tensions between the countries, as sales in Iran account for 0% (2024: 0%) of the Group's total sales, while for Israel in 2025 they account for 0.43% of the Group's total sales (2024: 0.25%).However, the Group could potentially be indirectly affected, both due to the impact of the conflict on the broader global supply chain, particularly as a result of disruptions in oil supply from the Middle East region, and due to the sharp increase in raw material prices. The Group's Management is implementing a series of actions to ensure the adequacy of raw materials, in combination with existing inventories, as well as to fully support the Group's customers, in line with current market conditions.Therefore, no direct material impact on the Group's financial performance is expected as a result of the aforementioned geopolitical

    developments, in terms of sales to customers. However, the prolonged continuation of the conflicts and the broader adverse macroeconomic effects may negatively affect the operations of all companies in

    Europe, and consequently the Group. The Group's Management closely monitors developments and may undertake a series of actions to mitigate any potential adverse effects, should they arise.

    Announcement of the exact final payable amount of the interim dividend for the fiscal year 2024

    The Board of Directors of the Company, during its meeting of November 14, 2024 approved the distribution (payment) of interim dividend for fiscal year 2024 to the shareholders of the Company, of a total amount of 3,000,000.00 Euros (gross amount), corresponding to 0.0685848289 Euros per share (gross amount). Including the adjustment related to the 863,796 treasury shares held by the Company, which, in accordance with the law, are excluded from the interim dividend payment, the final gross amount per share amounted to

    €0.0699665112.

SECTION 2: Main Risks and Uncertainties

Financial Risk Management

The financial assets used by the Group, mainly consist of bank deposits, bank overdrafts, receivable accounts, payable accounts and loans.

The Group's activities, in general, create several financial risks. Such risks include market risk (foreign exchange risk and risk from changes of raw materials prices), credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk.

Risk from Fluctuation of Raw Materials Prices

The Group is exposed to fluctuations in the price of polypropylene (represents approximately 43% of cost of sales), which are mainly faced by a similar change in the selling price of the final product. The possibility that the increase in the price of polypropylene cannot be fully passed on to the selling price, causes unavoidably the compression of margins. For this reason, the Group accordingly adjusts, to the extent it is feasible, its inventory policy as well as its commercial policy in general. Hence, in any case, the particular risk is deemed as relatively controlled.

Credit Risk

The credit risk to which the Group and the Company are exposed is the likelihood that a counterparty will cause financial loss to the Group and the Company as a result of the breach of its contractual liabilities.

The most significant credit risk to which the Group and the Company are exposed at the date of preparation of the financial statements is the book value of their financial assets. In order to address credit risk, the Group and the Company consistently apply a clear credit policy, which is monitored and evaluated on an ongoing basis so that the credit granted does not exceed the credit limit per customer. Furthermore, client sales insurance policies are also concluded per customer and no tangible guarantees on the assets of clients are required.

In order to monitor credit risk, customers are grouped according to the category they belong to, their credit risk characteristics, the maturity of their receivables and any previous receivables that they have caused, taking into account future factors related to the customers and the economic environment.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk monitoring focuses on the management of cash inflows and outflows on a consistent basis, so that the Group has the ability to meet its cash liabilities and retain the cash reserves required for its operations. Liquidity is managed by maintaining cash and approved bank credit lines. At the date of preparation of the financial statements, unused approved bank cred-

its were available to the Group, which are considered sufficient to handle any possible shortage of cash in the future.

Short-term bank liabilities are renewed at maturity, as they are part of the approved bank credit lines.

The following table presents the liabilities - disbursements according to their maturity dates.

Interest Rate Risk

The long-term loans of the Group have been granted by Greek and international banks and are mainly in Euro. Their repayment time varies, depending on the loan agreement and they are usually linked to Euribor plus spread. The Group's short-term loans have been granted by various banks, mainly with Euribor interest rate plus spread as well as Libor interest rate plus spread.

The Group Management monitors the evolution of the interest rates level and initiate

actions, to the extent possible, to retain or decrease the spreads. At the same time, effort is being placed on liquidity management, with a target to maintain a rational debt balance, compared with Group's sales volume, profitability level and the size of investment plans.

It is estimated that a change in the average annual interest rate by 1% will result in a (charge) / improvement of Earnings before Tax as follows:
