Aurubis Ag Announces First U.S Multimetal Recycling Plant Starts Production of Strategic Metals Aurubis AG has achieved an important strategic milestone: With the ramp-up of its new U.S site Aurubis Richmond, the company will be producing key strategic metals such as copper, nickel, tin, and precious metals in the state of Georgia. These are crucial for the future of the American economy and are essential for expanding data centers and AI applications, and for energy infrastructure, high-tech products, and the defense industry. The demand for strategic metals such as copper is rising steadily worldwide: American industry alone currently needs about 1.8 million t of copper per year -- and experts estimate that demand will rise nearly 30 % in the next five years. As of now, the U.S imports about half of the copper it processes. Multimetal recycling can close this gap quickly: As the first and most technologically advanced secondary smelter, Aurubis Richmond reinforces the independence of American supply chains by processing complex recycling materials. Participants at today's "First Melt" celebration included Rick W. Allen, U.S Representative for Georgia's 12th District, Jens Hanefeld, German Ambassador to the United States, and a number of high-profile guests from politics and business. The plant will process up to 180,000 t of complex recycling material annually -- with the expansion stage starting in 2026 -- including printed circuit boards, copper cable, and other metal-bearing products. Aurubis Richmond recovers critical metals from these materials, closing the value chain on site. Because it will be supplied locally, the Aurubis plant will help keep valuable raw materials in the market. The new plant in Richmond is equipped with cutting-edge technology that fulfills the latest environmental standards enacted by the state of Georgia and federal authorities. This ensures that the plant is operated with the highest consideration for water, air and soil. Aurubis Richmond has also been designed as a flexible "one-stop shop" that will receive a broad range of metal-bearing recycling materials from U.S suppliers. Announcement • Aug 09

New minor risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by cash flows. The company is paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Dividend yield: 1.9% This is considered a minor risk. Dividends are ultimately paid out of the company's available cash reserves. Companies that pay out too much of their cash flow are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If cash flow growth slows or cash flows fall, then there may not be enough cash reserves to maintain the same dividend. Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to take on debt to maintain the dividend. This risk is mitigated by the fact the dividend is covered by earnings, however, cash flows are generally more important. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 29% per year for the foreseeable future.

Aurubis Starts the Series of Tests for Hydrogen Aurubis started the series of tests for hydrogen use on an industrial scale in copper anode production at the Hamburg plant. The pilot project in which hydrogen and nitrogen were introduced in the production facility (anode furnace) instead of natural gas went according to plan. Initially, the current tests will gauge the reaction of the facility to the introduction of hydrogen and ensure that the individual production steps, which are highly sensitive in the energy-intensive metal production process, run smoothly. In the medium term, hydrogen could replace fossil fuels in the production process, making production more climate-friendly overall. Due to hydrogen's high reactivity, Aurubis expects enhanced efficiency in the production process as well. The hydrogen for the tests at Aurubis is supplied by Air Liquide, a long-term Aurubis partner that operates an oxygen unit on the Hamburg plant premises, among other things. With the first-time use of hydrogen on an industrial scale, Aurubis demonstrates another key step towards carbon-neutral multimetal production: while the conventional use of natural gas as a reducing agent forms carbon dioxide, the use of hydrogen only generates water vapor as a by-product. The extensive tests starting on May 27 will investigate hydrogen use in continuous operation until the late summer. The long-term goal is to determine the conditions under which hydrogen can be used for poling purposes in the anode furnace instead of natural gas. Furthermore, the technical insights that are gathered in this process are intended to establish the foundation for additional hydrogen activities in the Group. Is New 90 Day High Low • Feb 23
