Reykjavík District Court Dismisses Alcoa Fjarðaál Sf.’S Second Tort Case Against Eimskipafélag Íslands Hf., Eimskip Ísland Ehf., Samskipum Hf., Og Samskip Holding B.V Eimskipafélag Íslands hf. stated that Reykjavík District Court dismissed Alcoa Fjarðaál sf.’s second tort case against Eimskipafélag Íslands hf., Eimskip Ísland ehf., Samskipum hf., og Samskip Holding B.V. In May 2025 Alcoa decided to suspend its previous case against Eimskip and pay the litigation cost. In December 2025 Alcoa summoned a new case which relates to the same matter as the case it suspended, except that the second summons claim was recognition of liability for compensation, without an amount. That case has now been dismissed. It was and is Eimskip ‘s assessment that the claim is baseless, and the conditions of tort law are not fulfilled. Furthermore, Alcoa’s alleged loss and therefore its claim is not based on any established documentation. Reported Earnings • May 06

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 2.7% per year over the past 5 years. 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 declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (4.3% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 2.7% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Dividend is not well covered by earnings (91% payout ratio). Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (1.2% net profit margin). Reported Earnings • Jan 29

Over the last 3 years on average, earnings per share has fallen by 56% per year but the company’s share price has only fallen by 22% per year, which means it has not declined as severely as earnings.
