New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 6.0% per year for the foreseeable future. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are expected to decline, then in most cases the share price will decline over time as well. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Buy Or Sell Opportunity • Jul 17

Nexans Launches Unique Cable Recycling and Recovery Service in France and Europe: CABLELOOP Nexans is launching a unique cable recycling and recovery service in France and Europe: CABLELOOP. Nexans is stepping up its recycling strategy to support the energy transition and address the growing copper shortage. This necessary transformation is creating an opportunity for Nexans to set itself apart in the sector by leveraging its unique capabilities and agility. The company is launching its turnkey CableLoop service: collecting installation cable off-cuts and transporting them to the recycling centre, and then transforming the waste into recycled raw materials. A pioneer in electrification, the Group aims to use a minimum of 30% recycled copper in the manufacturing of its cables by 2030. At a time when demand for electricity is set to increase by 35% by 2050, and the world is heading for a risk of shortages of raw materials - including copper, Nexans is strengthening its key role as a player in the circular economy to speed up the energy and climate transition. By actively investing in the recycling of non-ferrous metals, Nexans is promoting the creation of a sustainable cycle geared towards decarbonized energy: extended life cycles, reuse and recycling will contribute to a circular economy, reducing the use of virgin resources and lowering the carbon footprint created by the electrification of activities. Nexans already recycles over 40,000 metric tons of its own production waste every year. In Europe, this cable sorting and recovery process is partly carried out through the RecyCables joint venture created with Suez in Noyelles-Godault (northwestern France). As well as guaranteeing product traceability, local processing avoids the need to export large quantities of waste from France. With 60 years' experience in recycling cable waste, Nexans is stepping up its circular economy strategy and is launching CableLoop, a unique recycling and recovery service for cable offcuts. Nexans buys used cables - end of construction site electrical wires or obsolete industrial cables, and transforms them into valuable, infinitely reusable resources for its partners, customers, suppliers and the cable industry. Two versions of the service are available: CABLELOOP Enterprises: the service for companies via on-site collection. CABLELOOP Professionals: a new service offered by specialized distributors, for professional customers and electricians who can return their used cables to their branch.

New Risk • Jul 25
New minor risk - Financial position The company has a high level of debt. Net debt to equity ratio: 44% This is considered a minor risk. Having a high level of debt increases the company's balance sheet risk. The company has a higher interest repayment burden, leading to the need to allocate a greater amount of its earnings towards servicing the debt, potentially limiting growth options or shareholder distributions. It can also increase the risk of bankruptcy if business conditions deteriorate enough that the company can no longer meet its debt obligations. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Annuncio • Jul 24

Nexans and SNCF Reseau Revolutionize Rail Safety with an Innovative Superconducting Fault Current Limiter Nexans is forming a unique partnership with SNCF Reseau to deploy a superconducting fault current limiter. This technological innovation will secure and optimize electric rail traction on the line between Belfort and Delle, including the cross-border link with Switzerland. Rail power grids are under growing pressure, with the continuing expansion of rail traffic and the upgrades to equipment. Power surges and short-circuit disruptions can cause major disruptions. To address this challenge, Nexans and SNCF Reseau have joined forces to deploy an innovative superconducting current limiter (SFCL). Developed by Nexans, and integrated with the Bussurel substation, a strategic location identified by SNCF Reseau, the SFCL is able to reduce short-circuit currents in standalone mode, regenerating in less than five minutes, without human intervention. This revolutionary technology offers several advantages: Improved network reliability and safety. The SFCL acts as a shock absorber in the event of a problem, limiting current peaks and disruptions to the network when short circuits occur. Optimized infrastructures. In the long term, the SFCL could pave the way for smaller electric traction installations, thereby cutting rail infrastructure costs, while supplying power for more trains. Better service. The SFCL avoids the need for rail works that are inconvenient for users, providing an efficient, cost-effective solution with no impact on the traffic schedule. Faced with the need to modernize power grids and meet growing demands for energy, Nexans is positioning itself as a leader in the development of revolutionary superconductor technologies. These innovations will completely transform the electrification of transport and power distribution, paving the way for a more sustainable, high-performance energy future. Nexans' vision is based on a network of interconnected superconductor systems, able to meet tomorrow's energy challenges. This ambition is reflected in iconic projects such as the superconducting fault current limiter deployed on the Belfort-Delle line, a milestone in the collaboration between the two players, as well as the SuperRail project, to power the Montparnasse-Vouillé substation with superconducting cables. These partnerships illustrate the commitment made by the two players to innovation and sustainable development. Deployment of the superconducting fault current limiter is scheduled for late 2025. This project is a major step forward in rail electrification, paving the way for further innovations to make transport safer, more reliable and more sustainable. Annuncio • Jun 08

Nexans Launches New High-Voltage Cable Range for Aircraft Nexans has launched a new high-voltage cable range for aircraft. With an efficiency higher than the previous generation, this cable family is a decisive step to reaching the carbon neutral objective in the aerospace industry by 2050. The need to consume less fuel is rapidly growing, driving the aerospace industry to change mobility technologies to alternative hybrid-electric aircraft. To support the next generation of aircraft, Nexans new high-voltage cables allow for a higher level of power without increasing the conductor's diameter and weight. Previewed at the Paris Air Show, Nexans new high- voltage cables for electrical and hybrid aircraft, and E-VTOL (Electrical Vertical Take-Off and Landing Vehicules) fit the requests from the Aerospace industry to reduce its carbon footprint, and the agenda of the French governement and the European commission to develop an innovative solution to integrate electrical and hybrid engines in aircraft. Nexans high-voltage cables are 20 times more efficient than standard aircraft cables. They can be used from 600V to 6,000V (AC, DC, PWM) when the standard aircraft voltages are ranging from 28V DC to 115V or 230 AC. They have higher power density (power/mass), using a patented design with semi-conductive and high resistivity layers which are extruded as sandwich layers. This guarantees a partial discharge free operation over a wide range of voltages and altitudes. A partial discharge is an electrical discharge that partially bridges a gap between a high-voltage conductor and a low-voltage conductor. Partial discharge causes degradation and can lead to system breakdown. As part of the "Clean Aviation" partnership, Nexans will play a significant role in reaching the program's energy efficiency and emissions goals, leading to a potential reduction of up 90% in emissions varying by the type of aircraft. Nexans' high voltage cables will be produced at its Draveil site in France, which employs 260 people. Upcoming Dividend • May 08

Nexans and Trimet Improve the Eco-Balance of Power Cables Trimet and Nexans have developed a new product able to meet the high technical requirements on the mechanical properties and conductivity of the alloy while reducing the product’s carbon footprint. Until now, power cables have been manufactured exclusively on the basis of primary aluminum. Melting and recycling of aluminum scrap requires only a fraction of the energy needed to produce primary aluminum. However, recycled aluminum contains impurities that adversely affect the material’s specific properties. The collaborative project between Nexans and Trimet aimed to coordinate optimized raw material supply and innovative material development. For example, Nexans has refined the sorting of aluminum scrap at its production sites in Europe through RecyCâbles, a Nexans-Suez joint venture, while gearing its collection to recycling for electrical cables. Trimet has closed the material cycle with its recycling concept and used the scrap obtained to develop a high-quality alloy that meets the full range of quality requirements for mechanical and electrical performance. Nexans plans to maximize the use of aluminum rod with recycled aluminum content in 2023. This enables the global company to meet its customers’ growing demand for products with a favorable eco-balance. For its part, Trimet is expanding its range of recycled products in the aluminum wire sector. In so doing, the materials specialist is building on its commitment to decarbonize production while making a further contribution to the energy transition. Annuncio • Dec 17
