‌Interim Financial Reporting

VAA - Vista Alegre Atlantis SGPS, S.A., hereby presents its accounts for the period from January to March 2025, pursuant to regulation no 5/2008, in accordance with IAS 34. These interim financial statements were prepared based on the same accounting policies and calculation methods used in the preparation of the last annual financial statements (2024 financial year). In this interim financial report, we only release notes which allow us to understand the changes in the financial position and performance of the company since the last annual report.

  1. Activity Evolution

    Consolidated turnover as of the first quarter of 2025 reached 36.3 million euros, representing a growth of 18% compared to the same period of 2024.

    In the first three months of 2025, Vista Alegre and Bordallo Pinheiro brand products maintained their growth trajectory in retail (physical and online) at national and international levels, resulting in a growth of 7.7%, compared to the same period in 2024.

    In terms of segments, we would like to highlight the 31% growth in sales of Stoneware and the 14.1% growth in sales of Porcelain and other products, compared to the same period in the previous year.

    Foreign markets represented 78.3% of Vista Alegre's turnover, with 28.4 million euros of sales.

    In the markets where the Group has a consolidated presence, sales in the Netherlands and Italy grew by 129% and 99%, respectively.

  2. Results

    Turnover reached 36.3 million euros, an increase of 18% compared to the previous year.

    Vista Alegre Group's EBITDA in the first quarter of 2025 totalled 6.6 million euros, a growth of 0.9% compared to the same period last year.

    The 27% year-on-year increase in energy costs negatively affected the EBITDA margin by 3 percentage points. The investment that the Group is making in decarbonisation will allow for greater energy efficiency in the production process, in order to reduce energy costs in the short term.

    The Group recorded an operating profit of 3.1 million euros, in line with the same period last year. Net profit was down on the same period last year, namely due to the increase in depreciation due to the investments that have been made and the increase in energy costs.

  3. Investments and debt

Accumulated investment in the first quarter of 2025 was 3.5 million euros, mostly directed towards decarbonisation projects, which reflects the Vista Alegre group's commitment to sustainability and social and environmental responsibility.

In the first three months of 2025, consolidated net debt increased slightly, essentially due to typical seasonality of the business. Considering the amount Vista Alegre Group projects financed by PRR grants, consolidated debt fell by 2.2 million euros compared to December 2024. In the first three months of 2025, the net debt to EBITDA ratio fell by 0.1x to 2.5x.

    Financial assets include a share in the venture capital company "Capital Criativo, SCR" and in "Lince Capital" which are measured at fair value, in the total amount of 399 thousand euros, and 500 thousand euros respectively in 2024 (Note 8).

The Board of Directors believes that the amount by which these assets are reflected is lower than the respective realisation value.

    Total investment properties

    938

    938

    Vista Alegre land

    This land is not used in the ordinary course of Vista Alegre Group's business activity, and in its current state or after a valuation process, is intended for sale. These assets are located in Alcobaça.

    With reference to 31stMarch 2025 results, the Group decided not to request further independent evaluation of investment property valuations since there were no circumstances that would have materially altered said valuations since 31stDecember 2024.

    The expenses incurred and the income earned associated with those investment properties are of no relevance.

  8. ‌Financial investments

    The heading "Financial investments" consists of residual investments in companies for which the Group has no control or significant influence and have been classified as available-for-sale financial investments.

    Financial investments available for sale include shares in venture capital companies "Capital Criativo, SCR" and "Lince Capital", which are measured at their respective fair value. The remaining financial investments were measured at cost as they are investments made in unlisted companies, whose fair value cannot be measured reliably. The Board of Directors believes that the amount by which these assets are reflected is lower than the respective realisation value.

    The detail on the 31stof March 2025 and on the 31stof December 2024 of this heading is as follows:
