Ad-hoc RELEASE Announcement according to Article 17 European Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) Biotest publishes preliminary business figures - 2024 forecasts partially exceeded Dreieich, 26 February 2025: According to preliminary and unaudited figures, the Biotest Group generated revenue of € 726.2 million in the 2024 financial year, compared € 684.6 million in the previous year (+6.1%). This means that the revenues achieved are above the forecast low single-digit revenue growth. This includes the share of revenue from technology disclosure and development services with Grifols S.A. The expected cash flow from operating activities was expected to be in the negative mid-double-digit million range. With a positive cash flow from operating activities of € 62.0 million, the expectation was significantly exceeded. The Biotest Group achieved EBIT of € 94.5 million in the 2024 financial year after € 143.5 million in the previous year. The EBIT achieved is therefore at the upper end of the forecast range of € 80 million to € 100 million. For the year 2024, a return on capital employed (ROCE) of 5-8% was expected. ROCE amounted to 7.9% for the 2024 financial year after 12.3% in 2023. The aforementioned preliminary and unaudited figures for the Biotest Group are calculated in accordance with IFRS. Biotest will publish the final figures for the 2024 financial year and the annual report on March 31, 2025. Biotest Aktiengesellschaft
