Gerresheimer Ag Announces Fda Grants Approval of Sq Innovation's Lasix®? Onyu Gerresheimer announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted SQ Innovation approval for Lasix ONYU for treatment of edema in congestive heart failure. Lasix ONYU is a combination product consisting of a novel high-concentration formulation of the diuretic furosemide and the Gerresheimer on-body drug delivery device (infusor). It was developed to enable subcutaneous infusion of furosemide at home for selected patients, as prescribed by a clinician without the need for a healthcare professional to administer the drug. The cartridge-based infusor was designed and developed by Gerresheimer based on its proprietary infusor platform for subcutaneous drug delivery. Gerresheimer also manages production of the device as a full-service solution provider. First products of Lasix ONYU are expected to be available on the market already in 2025. The FDA's approval of the combination product demonstrates Gerresheimer's innovative strength and its strong partnership with customers, from product design to large-scale manufacturing. Device based on Gerresheimer's innovative micropump technology: The cartridge-based infus or was designed and developed by Ger Resheimer based on its proprietary infUSor platform for subcutaneous Drug delivery. The core technology is an innovative micropump which enables controlled, precise administration of a drug product according to a defined therapy regimen. Designed with patient comfort and the environment in mind The lightweight, compact device is patched onto the patient's body, making it comfortable for the patient to wear while the drug is gently infused. The reusable component, which is rated for delivery of 48 treatments with diuretic furosemides, is recyclable. Because only the disposable unit requires sterilization, radiation can be used instead of chemical sterilization, and no electronic components end up in medical waste. This two-component concept was developed in line with Gerresheimer's EcoDesign principles, which aim to increase product lifespan and reduce waste. Reducing total cost of care and improving patients' quality of life. The combination product Lasix ONYU also opens up possibilities to reduce the total cost of care. The two-component design results in a lower cost per treatment, because only the disposable part of the device needs to be replaced. Most importantly, the infusor allows for home treatment, reducing the length of hospital stay or avoiding the need for hospitalization for intravenous diuretic administration altogether. First products expected to be available already in 2025 In addition to Gerresheimer's role in design and development, Gerresheimer also manages production the device as a full- service solution provider. The disposable unit for the infusor is, for example, produced at the Gerresheimer facility in Wackersdorf, Germany, on a high-capacity semi-automated line. Production commenced earlier this year in anticipation of approval and first products are expected to be available before the end of the year. Reported Earnings • Oct 10

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of British stocks, typically moving 8.3% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (2.1x net interest cover). Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (8.3% average weekly change). Large one-off items impacting financial results.

New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 20% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (2.1x net interest cover). Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (7.8% average weekly change). Large one-off items impacting financial results.

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: 2.4% 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 Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (2.4x net interest cover). High level of non-cash earnings (21% accrual ratio). Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (3.8% net profit margin).

New minor risk - Profit margin trend The company's profit margins are lower than last year and have reduced by more than 30%.

A large drop in profit margin could indicate the company does not have strong competitive advantages or it is yet to establish itself and its core business. Even if it is a well established business, this may make it a much riskier investment than one that has a combination of proven competitive advantages and a stable or growing profit margin. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (2.4x net interest cover). High level of non-cash earnings (21% accrual ratio). Minor Risk Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (3.8% net profit margin). Reported Earnings • Apr 13

Warburg Pincus, KKR Consortium Reportedly in Talks to Buy Gerresheimer A consortium consisting of Warburg Pincus LLC and KKR & Co. Inc. (NYSE:KKR) are in talks to acquire Gerresheimer AG (ETR:GXI), the German maker of packaging for drugs and cosmetics, according to people familiar with the matter.

The Warburg Pincus-KKR consortium is unlikely to offer a significant premium to Gerresheimer’s current price and there are still major hurdles to a deal, some of the people said.

New major risk - Financial position The company's debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Operating cash flow to total debt ratio: 26% This is considered a major risk. 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. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Reported Earnings • Feb 27
