First quarter dividend of US$0.07 announced Shareholders will receive a dividend of US$0.07. Ex-date: 5th June 2026 Payment date: 26th June 2026 Dividend yield will be 0.8%, which is lower than the industry average of 3.8%. Sustainability & Growth Dividend is not covered by earnings (312% earnings payout ratio) and the company has no free cash flows available, indicating it may be using cash reserves or debt to pay the dividend. The dividend has increased by an average of 22% per year over the past 4 years and payments have been stable during that time.

New major risk - Earnings quality The company has a high level of non-cash earnings. Accrual ratio: 35% This is considered a major risk. Non-cash earnings can arise from many different things. However, if a company consistently has a high level of non-cash earnings, it may be a sign that they are recognizing revenue from customers before the full value of the sales are received as cash or they are not depreciating the value of their assets appropriately. These are practices that inflate earnings, while not providing a similar increase to cash flows. Companies in some select industries naturally have a high level of non-cash earnings and it is not a major concern. However, in the worst case scenario it can be an early sign of performance manipulation by management. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk High level of non-cash earnings (35% accrual ratio). Minor Risks High level of debt (60% net debt to equity). Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (5.0% net profit margin). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (€8.9m sold). Declared Dividend • Feb 26

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 3.2% per year for the foreseeable future. This is considered a major risk.

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.
