Lenzing Ag Highlights Scalable Bio-Based Nonwovens Solutions and Receives Index 26 Award for Lenzing Dualwipe Lenzing AG further strengthened the positioning of its nonwovens business during a series of major international industry fairs in the first half of 2026. From CIDPEX in China to Techtextil in Frankfurt and INDEX in Geneva, Lenzing demonstrated how its nonwovens fiber portfolio and LENZING Nonwoven Technology (LNT) enable scalable, bio-based alternatives to fossil-based nonwoven materials. At Techtextil 2026 in Frankfurt and INDEX 2026 in Geneva, LENZING Nonwoven Technology was presented through interactive touch and feel stations that attracted strong industry interest. These hands-on demonstrations allowed visitors to experience the performance, versatility, and material benefits of Lenzing’s cellulosic nonwoven solutions in an application-oriented context. A central highlight was the recognition of LENZING DualWipe with the prestigious INDEX Award in the Nonwovens Roll Goods category at the INDEX fair in Geneva. This innovative wipe, enabled by the LENZING Nonwoven Technology, integrates two functional surfaces within a single wipe: an abrasive side for effective removal of dirt and residues, and a soft, highly absorbent side for wiping and finishing. DualWipe contains no synthetic fibers, binders, or finishing chemicals, eliminating the risk of microplastic shedding typically associated with conventional synthetic wipes. Lenzing’s nonwovens solutions are aligned with the EU Bioeconomy Strategy, which emphasizes the use of bio-based materials to reduce dependence on fossil resources and strengthening sustainable industrial value chains. Lenzing translates these strategic ambitions into industrial-scale solutions that are already available for applications in hygiene, wipes and technical nonwovens. Across all fairs, Lenzing demonstrated how its fibers and technologies add value to diverse end applications, with a particular focus on absorbent hygiene products and advanced nonwoven solutions. 공시 • Jun 01

Lenzing Nonwovens Expands its LENZING Lyocell Dry Fiber Portfolio to Offer Cellulosic Solutions for a Wider Range of Applications Lenzing Nonwovens announced the expansion of its LENZING Lyocell Dry fiber portfolio with two new cellulosic fibers – a fine dry fiber that delivers strength and softness and a coarse dry fiber which provides enhanced liquid and air flow. These two innovative products enable customers to confidently broaden their use of LENZING's wood-based and biodegradable fibers into a wider range of applications while maintaining exceptional performance. All LENZING Lyocell Dry fibers within the family (standard, fine, and coarse) have hydrophobic properties which ensure efficient liquid management suitable for extensive nonwoven applications. The new LENZING Lyocell Dry fine fiber can produce nonwoven fabrics with higher density compared to LENZING Lyocell Dry standard fiber. With up to 30% more cellulosic fibers in the same space, customers can create strong and soft nonwoven products. These fibers are suitable for use in hygiene applications such as diapers or sanitary pads. The new LENZING Lyocell Dry coarse fiber creates fabrics that are more open due to its extended fiber diameter, and thus increasing the pore sizes between the fibers in the fabric. This allows for more air or liquid to flow through the material. It is particularly suitable for the acquisition and distribution layer in hygiene products and is also being explored for industrial filtration applications. Lenzing will showcase its innovative LENZING Lyocell Dry fiber family at tabletop 202 during the Hygienix Conference, November 18-21, 2024. Facts and figures: LENZING Lyocell Dry fine has a linear density of 1.3dtex; LENZING Lyocell Dry standard has a linear density of 1.7dtex; Fabrics produced using LENZING Lyocell Dry fine and standard have the same basis weight (eg. 50gsm) but the "fine" material has a higher density with up to 30% more fibers in the same space. LENZING Lyocell Dry coarse has a linear density of 6.3dtex. Major Estimate Revision • Sep 01

Lenzing Group Teams Up with Recyc Leather and Ganni to Unveil New Footwear Materials Lenzing Group has partnered with leather alternative expert Recyc Leather to introduce Pelinova, an innovative material that fuses TENCEL™? Lyocell fibers and recycled leather fibers for high-end fashion applications. Joining forces with Danish advanced contemporary brand GANNI, this dynamic trio is set to bring this next-generation material to the market as an alternative to genuine leather materials, starting with GANNI's Slouchy Boots launching early this year. Pelinova: a hybrid alternative combining TENCEL™? L Tokyocell fibers and recycled leather fibers. Recyc Leather's next-generation material, Pelinova®?, is created through a unique, transparent process which involves collecting pre-consumer recycled leather and then hydro-jetting the leather fibers into the TENCEL™? Lanocell fibers, a standout material within the TENCEL™? brand portfolio that is produced from a resource-saving, closed-loop production process. TENCEL™? Liocell fibers are also unfavorable to odor-causing bacteria. The combined efforts between Lenzing and Recyc Leather result in a material which is supple, flexible, and durable, with a low environmental impact utilizing 70% less water than traditional methods and reducing CO2 emissions. Riding on this exciting breakthrough in footwear, Recyc Leather is also exploring the possibility of expanding the fabric application to other leather goods spanning home textiles, furniture, automobile interiors and the luxury segment. Elevating the GANNI partnership: GANNI is a B Corp. certified company, on a journey to become the most responsible version of itself. They believe it's a moral obligation to do better every day. GANNI is committed to minimizing social and environmental impact within its business operation with a goal to reach 50% absolute carbon reduction by 2027, with materials and innovation among its key pillars in reaching this target. In addition to footwear, GANNI sees the application of Recyc Leather's Pelinova®? with TENCEL™? Lycell fibers in the accessories category. GANNI, Recyc Leather, and Lenzing have future developments in the pipeline to get even closer to being able to scale the use of the material. During Premiere Vision Paris (PV Paris, February 6-8), Lenzing will be joined by Recyc Leather and GANNI at a panel discussion to share their collaborative experiences as a prime example of how companies can unite to create high-end fashion using responsibly produced recycled materials. For more interactive participation, visit the TENCEL™? brands at Booth 6D67 and Recyc Leather at Booth 6HUB11. Savings consider solvent recovery. The responsible production of TENCEL™? LTokcell and Modal fibers uses at least 50% less water and emits at least 50% less water. The responsible production of TENEL™?

If the company's operating cash flows are too small relative to the size of their debt, it increases their balance sheet risk. The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues. It also extends the time it would take for the company to pay back the debt in full, meaning it may not be able to easily pay it all off in a distress scenario. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (currently running at an operating cash loss). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (5.4% average weekly change). Minor Risk Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (45% increase in shares outstanding).

New Risk • Jul 14
New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 45% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (currently running at an operating cash loss). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (7.1% average weekly change). Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows.
