II.ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR 2025 ON THE CONSOLIDATED AND SEPARATE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Dear Shareholders,
Pursuant to the provisions of Law 4548/2018 and Law 3556/2007 article 4 paragraph 2(c), 6, 7 and 8, of article 2 of the decisions issued thereon 8/754/14.04.2016 of the Board of Directors of the Hellenic Capital Market Commission and the Company’s Articles of Association, we are hereby submitting to you the Annual Report of the Board of Directors for the closing year from 01.01.2025 to 31.12.2025.
This report contains financial and non‐financial information regarding GEK TERNA Group, for the financial year 2025 and describes the most significant events that took place before as well as after the reporting period of the financial statements. Moreover, the report outlines the key risks and uncertainties the Group may face in 2025 and records significant transactions between the Company and its related parties.
A.Financial Developments and Performance for the Year 2025
The Greek economy continued to move on a steady growth trajectory in 2025, with growth reaching 2.1% according to the Hellenic Statistical Authority, exceeding the Eurozone average growth rate of 1.4%, despite the prevailing uncertainty in the European and global economic environment, due to the ongoing hostilities in Ukraine and the Middle East.
The achieved growth is mainly attributable to the increase in investments that enhance the productivity of the economy, which have been supported by: (a) the Public Investment Program, (b) the contribution of funds from the Recovery and Resilience Facility, (c) the increase in private consumption and (d) the positive contribution of exports driven by a strong tourism season. It is noted that total investments for 2025 amounted to 17% of GDP.
The continued growth in 2025 was supported by a significant improvement in fiscal figures, with the primary surplus amounting to 5.27 bn euros, alongside a reduction in public debt, which decreased to 145.9% of GDP. Public debt is forecast to decline further in 2026, with the reduction depending on the growth rate and inflation developments, to the extent affected by hostilities in the Middle East. A key factor contributing to the improvement in fiscal figures was the intensification of the digitalization of processes, primarily in transactions with the Greek State, the increase in electronic transactions and the continued improvement in VAT and other tax collection.
Furthermore, according to the recent macroeconomic forecasts of the Bank of Greece, GDP growth is expected to reach 1.9% in 2026 and 2% in 2027, supported by significant private investments scheduled over the next three years exceeding 20 bn euros, mainly in energy, infrastructure, telecommunications and other investments, as well as by the acceleration in the absorption of remaining funds from the Recovery and Resilience Facility and new resources from various European programs. The Bank of Greece’s forecasts may be revised in the event of an escalation of tensions in the Middle East, a prolonged increase in energy prices, or heightened uncertainty regarding the duration of military operations.

Regarding inflation in the Greek economy, for the year, the Consumer Price Index increased by 2.5%, showing a slight deceleration compared to the 2.7% increase in 2024. During the same period, inflation in Europe stood at 2.1%. For the following years, the European Central Bank estimates inflation at 3.1% in 2026 and 2.4% in 2027. While a gradual deceleration had initially been expected, recent hostilities in the Middle East are anticipated to generate a new wave of inflationary pressures, the magnitude and duration of which will depend on geopolitical developments.
In this environment and having already regained investment grade from all major rating agencies, the sovereign credit rating is now one notch above Investment Grade (Scope, DBRS, S&P, Fitch, R&I). As a result, the spread of Greek government bonds against German bonds has declined to its lowest level in the past 18 years (~60bps), below the corresponding levels of Italy and France.
In any case, risks to the outlook of the Greek economy depend, on the one hand, on the outcome of the Russia–Ukraine conflict and, on the other hand, on the intensity and duration of hostilities in the Middle East. The US–Israel conflict with Iran, involving neighboring countries, in addition to significant human losses, has caused severe damage to infrastructure in the affected regions, which is expected to lead to higher energy prices (fuel, natural gas, etc.) and a slowdown in global growth until economies adjust to the new conditions.
In a constantly evolving and demanding economic environment, GEK TERNA Group, one of the largest and most dynamic business groups in Greece, continues to implement and expand its investment program without disruption. With a consistent focus on sustainable growth, the Group aims to maintain and further strengthen its strong position in its existing business segments, while also exploring and executing targeted expansions into new areas of strategic interest.
At the business level, 2025 was another particularly important year for the GEK TERNA Group, during which its business and strategic footprint was further strengthened. The landmark concession of Attiki Odos, which is being fully consolidated for the first time in the Group’s Results as of 01.01.2025 and the commencement of the concession of Egnatia Odos constitute key milestones, contributing to the increase in long-term revenue streams and strengthening the Group’s position in the concessions sector. At the same time, the backlog amounted to 9.2 bn euros, reflecting the Group’s increased competitiveness in complex projects and providing clear revenue visibility for the coming years. In this context, the strategic partnership with Motor Oil (MOH) is expected to represent a significant step in further enhancing the value of the Group’s energy segment, creating new opportunities for joint investments and operational synergies in energy infrastructure and related services.
The main financial results of the year 2025 compared to the corresponding period of 2024, are as follows:
Turnover from third parties from continuing operations amounted to 3,855.5 mn euros, compared to 3,249.9 mn euros in the respective period of 2024, representing an increase of 605.6 mn euros, mainly driven by higher turnover from the Construction and Concessions segments. It is noted that in 2025 the subsidiary NEA ATTIKI ODOS CONCESSION S.A. is consolidated for the full year, whereas in the previous period consolidation covered the period from 06.10.2024 to 31.12.2024.

Operating Segment of Electricity from thermal energy sources, electricity trading, and gas
The GEK TERNA Group is active in the field of Production, Supply and Trading of Electricity and Natural Gas mainly through its subsidiary HERON ENERGY S.A., where it is the sole shareholder at 100%. Its vertical presence is a key factor in limiting the related market risk, while also providing the opportunity to exploit opportunities that arise at various levels.
In the Segment of Electricity from thermal energy sources, electricity trading, and gas, the Group participates in the market through the combined cycle power plant from natural gas, with an installed capacity of 435MW. Despite the increasingly intense competition, the Group managed to maintain its competitive presence in the market by leveraging its long-term experience and the flexibility provided by its ability to procure natural gas on competitive terms, as well as the technical characteristics of the plant.
The thermal production of the company HERON ENERGY S.A. during 2025 amounted to 1,758 GWh, compared to 1,834 GWh, posting a decrease of 4.0% compared to the previous year and representing 8.0% of the electricity production from natural gas units in Greece and 6% of total conventional generation. This slight decrease is primarily due to the scheduled maintenance of the plant, the duration of which, for technical reasons, was extended beyond the original plan. The maintenance began in midMarch and was completed within April. It should be noted that during the first half of 2025, a natural gas-fired power plant in Crete (HERON I) was established and commissioned on behalf of PPC, within the framework of the relevant agreement. As a result, the positive outcome was recognized, contributing to the operating profitability of the segment in the first half.
In the area of Electric Energy Distribution and Gas Segment to final consumers, the market showed an upward trend throughout the year, and especially during its second half. The company maintained its

Total electricity sales amounted to 5,000 GWh showing a decrease compared to the previous year, due to reduced sales to certain industrial customers.
The Turnover in the Segment of Electricity from thermal energy sources, electricity trading, and gas, amounted to 1,656.1 mn euros compared to 1,679.3 mn euros in 2024, recording a decrease of 1.4%, mainly due to the de-escalation of electricity prices following the reduction in the wholesale electricity price (DAM), due to the significant decrease in natural gas prices in Europe.
Adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA plus non-cash results included therein) amounted to 93.1 mn euros compared to 97.5 mn euros in the corresponding period of 2024, presenting a decrease of 4.5%, mainly due to the lower profitability of the Electricity Supply Segment.
Operating Results before interest and taxes (EBIT) from continuing activities amounted to 22.0 mn euros compared to 53.7 mn euros in the corresponding period of 2024, significantly reduced for the aforementioned reasons.
Earnings before taxes amounted to 15.3 mn euros compared to 36.4 mn euros in the corresponding period of 2024.

In this context, GEK TERNA, following the actions implemented in 2025, is continuously evaluating its strategy in the Industrial sector, with the aim of optimizing the utilization of existing investments, maintaining production readiness and technical expertise, and adapting the operating model to current conditions.
The Turnover Industry/Quarry Operating Segment settled at 26.1 mn euros in 2025, compared to 24.3 mn euros in the corresponding period of 2024, recording an increase of 7.4%. The increase is due to the increased operation of an owned quarry in the Larissa area, which is engaged in the production of aggregates.
Adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA plus non-cash results included therein) settled at 2.5 mn euros, compared to 3.3 mn euros in the corresponding period of 2024. The difference is due to reduced provisions for other non-cash results in the 2025 period compared to the 2024 period.

D.Risk Factors and Uncertainties
The Group's operations are subject to various risks and uncertainties, such as the return of macroeconomic uncertainty, market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk, wind and weather conditions, the uncertainty of the results from the impact of geopolitical upheavals and extreme natural events, which may have a prolonged and unforeseen term.
1)Financial Risks
The Group's activities expose it to various financial risks, including market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and price fluctuation risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
In order to address financial risks and to limit their negative impact on its financial results, the Group has a management plan that aims to limit the adverse impact on its financial results that may arise from the inability to predict financial markets and the fluctuations in cost and sales variables that affect financial results.
The financial instruments used by the Group mainly comprise bank deposits, mainly long‐term and secondarily short‐term loans, derivatives for interest rate risk hedging, trade debtors and creditors and other accounts receivable and payable. The impact of the main risks and uncertainties on the Group's activities is analyzed below.
Credit risk
Credit risk entails the possibility that a counterparty will cause financial loss to the Group and the Company due to the breach of the counterparty’s contractual obligations.
The Group continuously monitors its receivables, either separately or per group and encompasses all the arising information into the credit audit. When deemed necessary, external reports or analyses related to effective or potential clients are used.
The Group is not exposed to significant credit risk arising from trade receivables with regard to its business activities, except for the trading of electric energy. This is attributed, on the one hand, to the Group’s policy, which is focused on cooperation with reliable clients and, on the other hand, to the nature of the Group’s operations.
In particular, total receivables, whether related to the narrow or the broader public sector or private sector clients with significant financial position in Greece and abroad, are under special monitoring and the Management constantly assesses the reliability of its customers, their financial sizes regardless of whether they are a public or broader public or private entity, for potential implications, in order to take the necessary measures to minimize any adverse effects for the Group.
The Group is exposed to credit risk from end consumers due to the sale of electricity and natural gas to them. The control carried out to ensure the collectability of receivables is systematic. Where necessary, adequate reserves are established through provisions in order to minimize potential adverse impacts. Apart from the above and in addition to safeguarding collectability the Group makes
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Report of the fiscal year 1 January 2025 - 31 December 2025
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
31
sure to issue monthly bills concerning the probable consumption per month, so that with the issuance of the settlement invoice that is being made in the fourth month of consumption, there is no large outstanding balance to be settled. It should be noted that at the start of cooperation with customers, an amount equal to the indicative cost of consumption for one month is paid by the customers in the form of a guarantee. The risk of large sales contracts with a time horizon of more than one month is secured through forward contracts for the purchase and sale of electricity and natural gas, thus minimizing the risk of fluctuations in the purchase and sale of electricity.
The existing experience in handling the trading of electricity and natural gas ensures the Group positive prospects for the operational segment of Electricity from thermal energy sources, electricity trading, and gas.
The credit risk regarding cash and cash available and other receivables is considered limited given that the counterparties are reliable Banks with high quality capital structure, the Greek State or companies within the broader Public Sector or strong groups of companies.
The Management assumes that all the financial assets, with the exception of those for which the necessary impairments have been recognized, are of high credit quality.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk entails the risk that the Group or the Company will be in no position to meet their financial obligations when required. The Group maintains its liquidity risk at a low level.
Specifically, the Group’s liquidity, in particular, is considered satisfactory, as in addition to the existing cash and cash equivalents, the cash flows generated by the Concessions of the motorways, the production and sale of electric energy as well as from construction works are ongoing.
The Group manages liquidity needs by closely monitoring the progress of long‐term financial obligations, as well as the payments made daily. Liquidity needs are monitored in different time zones, on a daily and weekly basis as well as in a rolling period of 30 days. Liquidity needs for the next 6 months and next year are determined on a monthly basis.
The Group maintains cash and cash equivalents available in banks to meet liquidity needs for periods of up to 30 days. The funds for the medium‐term liquidity needs are released from the Group's time deposits and if deemed necessary, bank credits are also being used.
Market risk analysis
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign exchange risk arises when the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument are subject to fluctuations due to changes in exchange rates. This type of risk may arise, for the Group, from foreign exchange differences at the valuation and conversion into the Group’s currency (Euro) of financial assets, mainly financial receivables and financial liabilities, related to transactions that are carried out in a currency other than the operating currency of the Group’s entities. The transactions mainly concern purchases of fixed assets and inventories, commercial sales, investments in financial assets, loans, as well as investments in foreign operations.

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
32
The Group operates mainly in the Greek and Balkan regions in selective undertaking of construction projects and therefore may be exposed to foreign exchange risk that may arise from Euro exchange rate with other currencies. To manage this risk category, the Group’s Financial Management Department uses the financial instruments and offset the Group's exposure to foreign exchange risk on the basis of specific policies, whenever it is necessary. The completion of the Transaction will reduce the Group's exposure to foreign exchange risk.
Regarding the Group's transactions with foreign companies, these are usually carried out with the settlement currency being the euro. To reduce this risk, the Group utilizes, where deemed necessary, the locally produced cash available in local currency to pay the expenses incurred, as well as the forward purchase of foreign exchange, thus minimizing the creation of foreign exchange risk.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk entails the probability that fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates.
The Group's policy is to minimize its exposure to the interest rate risk of long‐term financing. Under this policy, medium‐term loans are mainly in Euro, with fixed spread and a floating base interest rate linked to Euribor. In order to further reduce the interest rate risk associated with long‐term financing and to reduce the consequent volatility of financial expenses, the Group implements specific policies that include Interest Rates Swaps.
The largest component of the Group's short‐term debt is in Euro at a floating base interest rate linked to Euribor. Short‐term loans are mainly issued as a bridge financing in order to cover temporary needs during the implementation phase - construction of investments of the Group. The Group's policy is to convert these loans into long‐ term fixed spreads linked to Euribor and, where deemed necessary due to repayment time, to implement approved interest rate risk management policies through Interest Rate Swaps.
On 31.12.2025, 21.6% of the Group’s total debt bares fixed interest rate, 72.4% bares floating interest rate that have been offset through derivatives, with which future fixed interest rate payments are exchanged against floating rate based receivables, while 6% of the Group’s loans bare floating rate based on the Euribor.
These loans are repaid through the operating cash flows from the Group's operations.
Sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk
The following table presents the sensitivity of profit or loss for the period against the Groups short‐ term debt and deposits, towards a change in variable interest rates amounting to +20% –20% (2024: +/-20%). The changes in interest rates are estimated to be logical in relation to the current market conditions and until now they have been consistent with the previous year.

2)Geopolitical Risks – Recent Developments in Iran
The ongoing hostilities in the Middle East, which have continued with increasingly destructive effects on military camps, aside from the directly involved parties (Iran and Israel) and neighboring countries, have led to the destruction of infrastructure and facilities in the regions where energy products are produced and stored. This has resulted in the removal of the possibility for realistic solutions in the affected societies. The requested resolution of the issue and the subsequent restoration of damages, once the hostilities cease, will require significant time for the restart of the global economy.
The impact of the recent developments in Iran and the neighboring countries of the Middle East is not expected to be material in the context of the ongoing hostilities, as the Group has not maintained substantive operations in these regions over the past two years. The Group, however, continues to retain a limited presence through branches and legal entities in these jurisdictions (excluding Iran), staffed by minimal personnel, while awaiting the completion of outstanding tax and other regulatory and administrative matters to proceed with the final cessation of their operations.
The only consequences that will affect the Group will stem from the rise in energy prices as long as the side effects of the regional military actions persist, as well as the potential increase in raw material and supply prices, as well as freight rates.
Specifically, a) the Group’s revenues are not expected to be affected, as there are no active construction projects in the region and b) increases in energy product prices, as well as raw material and supply prices, which are to be used for projects outside the Middle East (mainly in Greece), will be addressed through the contract provisions from the Customers.
3)Risks arising from existing financial conditions prevailing in Greece and from the global economy
The Greek economy continued to move along a steady growth trajectory in 2025, which, according to the Hellenic Statistical Authority, was 2.1%, surpassing the average growth rate of the Eurozone, which stood at 1.4%, despite the existing uncertainty in the European and global economic environment, due to the ongoing hostilities in Ukraine and the Middle East.
Despite the presence of all the above negative factors, the Greek economy, given that it has not been directly involved in the ongoing hostilities and has taken a defensive stance against challenges, is
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Report of the fiscal year 1 January 2025 - 31 December 2025
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
34
forecasted, according to the Bank of Greece's current estimates, to grow by 1.9% in 2026 and 2% in 2027. This growth is supported by significant private investments planned for the next three years, which exceed 20 bn euros and mainly concern energy, infrastructure, telecommunications and other investments, as well as the acceleration of remaining funds from the Recovery and Resilience Fund, along with new resources from various new European programs.
Regarding the specific issues of the Greek economy that need to be addressed in order to positively contribute to achieving further economic growth, these are outlined below:
The further enhancement of competitiveness, so that the economy becomes export-oriented and addresses the current account deficit.
The further reduction of bank lending rates, which leads borrowers to face difficulties in repaying installments of their mortgage loans for the first residence and the agricultural land.
Stabilizing the prices of consumer goods, which reduces the real disposable income and household purchasing power and deprives the ability to create savings for future investment, while keeping inflation levels higher than the European average.
Increasing disposable income for citizens through real wage increases and reduction in non-wage cost.
The utilization of funds from the Recovery Fund and various programs to be agreed upon with the Eurozone, with an acceleration in the implementation of projects and reforms undertaken by the Government, to prevent any loss of funding.
The acceleration of judicial proceedings, to reduce the time required for issuing decisions, which in many cases constitutes a deterrent to investment.
Overcoming bureaucratic issues in Public Administration to become more functional and capable of making necessary plans, including for emergency situations (natural disasters, fires, climate changes).
Despite the new conditions that have arisen due to the geopolitical developments, the decisions of the United States on the major problems (Ukraine, Middle East, increases in military armament) and inflationary pressures and given that the Group does not have any meaningful activity in the Middle East, Russia and Ukraine, the outlook for the Group remains positive in the medium term and long term due to the following factors: a) the attainment of investment grade rating for the creditworthiness of the Greek economy by major international rating agencies, as upgraded by Moody’s in March to “Baa3” , which signifies increased inflows of investment capital under more favorable borrowing terms, which are essential for supporting investment activity, b) Investments with long-term yields in the form of Concessions and PPPs, c) Significant signed and pending construction contracts for execution, d) The increase in the share of electricity generated from RES in the Greek economy, as well as the increase in market share in electricity trading and e) the increase in energy storage capacity.

4)Other risks and uncertainties
Backlog of the construction contracts
The backlog of the construction contracts does not necessarily constitute an indication of future revenues from the Group's operations in this segment. Although the backlog of these contracts represents projects that are considered certain, no guarantee can be given that cancellations or adjustments will not be performed.
The backlog of the Group's construction contracts may fluctuate in connection with the delays in the project’s implementation and/or receivables or inability to fulfill contractual obligations.
Climate change risk
The increase in the average temperature of the planet has caused a series of extreme natural phenomena (disastrous floods, extreme natural phenomena, but also large-scale wildfires from prolonged drought, as well as damage to the primary food production sector).
The risks arising from the effects of climate change and the transition to a low-carbon economy are expected to affect most, if not all, business entities in matters related to their sustainability.
The Group owns and operates in Greece five major highways, where the effects of climate change in recent years consist of intense weather phenomena and long-term natural turnarounds.
Taking into account the extreme natural phenomena that have occurred in recent years, the Group takes all necessary measures to eliminate or minimize the problems that may arise, in addition to insurance coverage for the risks that are insurable.
Cyber security risk
Potential violations in the security of networks, information and operating systems threaten the integrity of the Group's data, sensitive information, as well as the smooth operation of its business activities. Such a breach could adversely affect the Group's reputation and competitive position. Also, a possible occurrence of damages, imposition of fines or loss of business (including restoration costs) could have a significant negative impact on our financial position and operating results. In addition, managing cybersecurity breaches may require a significant investment of time by the management.
In order to mitigate the Cyber Security risks, GEK TERNA Group implements technical information systems security measures in accordance with best practices. In addition, the Group has established organizational measures and has implemented Cyber Security Policies and Procedures, with which all the executives and the external collaborators of the Group must comply. In cases where it is deemed necessary, the IT Department provides additional instructions and guidance.
The Group is in continuous cooperation with companies providing specialized Cybersecurity services, as well as with experienced consultants in the field, in order to provide full technical and organizational coverage in the field of Cybersecurity

E.Outlook and Prospects
GEK TERNA the parent company of the Group (www.gekterna.com) is listed on Athens Stock Exchange (FTSE / Athex Large Cap / Athex ESG) and comprises one of the largest business Groups in Greece, with selective presence in Central and Southeastern Europe as well as in Middle East.
GEK TERNA Group, with a Turnover of 3,855.5 mn euros employed more than 6,149 employees worldwide and is active in the following segments:
a) infrastructure, b) the construction and operation of the concessions, as well as the construction and joint operation co-financed projects (PPPs) and waste management projects, c) the production of electricity using natural gas as fuel and the supply/trade of electricity and natural gas, d) real estate management and sale of properties and e) mining activities.
The GEK TERNA Group’s revenues for FY 2025 recorded a significant increase of 18.6% (605.5 mn euros) euros, reaching 3,855.5 mn euros. At the same time, the Group’s operating profitability (adj. EBITDA) grew by 56.3%, amounting to 631.4 mn euros.
The main sources of increase in the above figures were both the Construction segment, which presented an increase in revenue by 27.7% and in operating profitability by 44.5% and the Concessions segment, whose revenue and operating profitability reached significantly higher levels (increases of 60.4% and 76.7% respectively), representing 57.5% of the Group's total operating profitability.
In the segment Electricity from thermal energy sources, electricity and natural gas trading in Greece and Abroad, competitive pressures and market volatility continued, with the Group achieving satisfactory operating profitability and maintaining market shares.
It is noted that the increase in operating profitability recorded in the year 2025 is expected to be sustainable, as it comes mainly from the Concessions segment, with the projects ensuring long-term and stable revenue streams for the Group, as well as from Constructions segment, due to the increased remaining construction backlog. Further strengthening is expected gradually with the operation of the next concession projects, such as Egnatia Odos, Kastelli Airport, water and waste management projects, among others.
Earnings before taxes amounted to 182.9 mn euros, compared to 53.1 mn euros for the corresponding period in 2024 and the difference is due to the reasons mentioned above.
Earnings after taxes amounted to 136.6 mn euros compared to 17.7 mn euros in the corresponding period of 2024.
Earnings attributable to the Owners of the Parent company amounted to 139 mn euros, compared to 24.8 mn euros for the corresponding period in 2024.
The net debt on a recourse basis (Adjusted Net Debt of the Parent Company) stood at 471.2 mn euros, versus 152 mn euros on 31.12.2024.
The Group’s Total Adjusted Net Debt (including project finance contracts - non-recourse borrowing) amounted to 4,296.8 mn euros, compared to 3,258.5 mn euros as of 31.12.2024. The increase is primarily attributable to the payment of approximately 1.3 bn euros for the commencement of the 35-year concession period of the Egnatia Odos in December 2025.

The Group’s Total Cash and Cash Equivalents (excluding restricted deposits) amounted to 1,693.5 mn euros, of which 852.9 mn euros pertain to the Parent Company.
It is noted that during 2025, the Group completed the full repayment of the 2018 Common Bond Loan, totaling 120 mn euros, while at the same time it successfully completed the issuance of the 7-year Common Bond Loan of 500 mn euros.
The Group’s prospects from the execution of ongoing projects across its operating segments, as well as from new projects to be undertaken, are expected to generate significant positive multiplier effects for the Greek economy.
The Group, distinguished by its consistency and strong sense of corporate social responsibility, will continue to be a leader in the construction, concessions and energy segments. It will invest in its people by providing the necessary resources to promote and continuously improve the working environment, while aiming to enhance the financial performance of its segments and at the same time generate satisfactory profits for the benefit of its shareholders.
Construction Operating Segment:
The outlook supports stabilization and further improvement in the segment’s financial figures for 2026 and the following years, along with the continued strengthening of the construction backlog, both in Greece and abroad.
Activity in the construction segment operate at higher levels compared to 2024, while profit margins remained at satisfactory levels, driven by the project mix as well as the Group’s execution capabilities.
The Group’s existing construction backlog of signed contracts amounts to 6.6 bn euros on 31.12.2025, of which 1.6 bn euros relates to private sector contracts, 4.2 bn euros concerning Group investment projects and 0.8 bn euros to public works contracts. Of the signed contracts as of 31.12.2025, 96% relate to projects in Greece and 4% to projects abroad, while the expected execution timeline of the outstanding contractual backlog is analyzed as follows: (a) 2.1 bn euros in 2026 and (b) 4.5 bn euros for the period until 2029.
Furthermore, during the period from 01.01.2026, up to the date of preparation of the financial statements, the Group signed new projects with a total value of 164.2 mn euros.
In addition to the above, the Group expects to sign contracts for projects for which it has been qualified (either as a temporary or as a final contractor) for a total amount of 2.4 bn euros, of which 1.1 bn euros concern the execution of public projects, 0.8 bn euros concern the execution of private sector projects and 0.5 bn euros concern projects that concern investments of the Group.
The outlook for the coming years points to an improvement in the segment’ financial figures, as the construction backlog remains at high levels.
In the Concessions – Self/Co- Financed Projects Operating Segment:
The Group has a dominant presence in the financing, construction, maintenance and operation of Concessions. The ever-expanding portfolio of concession projects and PPPs, as analyzed in the section “Key Financial Performance of Operating Segments for financial year 2025”, makes GEK TERNA Group one of the most important concession portfolio managers at European level.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Report of the fiscal year 1 January 2025 - 31 December 2025
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
38
In the context of its ongoing investment in this segment, Management continues to explore new projects to expand the Group’s activities in Greece and abroad, closely monitoring developments in the Greek economy and collaborating with financial institutions and international market analysts.
The Group confirms its strategic decision to invest dynamically in the Concessions segment and in the fields of PPPs, while creating satisfactory earnings and returns for its shareholders.
Taking into consideration the above, the prospects of the concessions segment of GEK TERNA Group for the year 2026 and for the following years are positive, despite the difficult period that the global economy is going through.
Electricity Production from Thermal Energy Sources, electricity & natural gas trading Operating
Segment
The Electricity Production from thermal energy sources, electricity & natural gas trading Operating Segment maintained a 10% market share in electricity supply activity in 2025, despite competitive pressures in the market. The Group successfully increased its number of customers, in both the Electricity and Natural Gas segments, achieving its goal of consolidating a leading market position, among independent suppliers in terms of both market share and customer growth. At the same time, its market share in electricity production from conventional technology units remained nearly stable at 6%, while the HERON II power plant further increased its operational flexibility for the Electricity System, providing critical support for its continuous balancing amid the rising penetration of Renewable Energy Sources.
It is noted that the decrease in the Turnover of the segment, compared to the corresponding period in 2024, is due to lower sales to certain industrial customers.
Furthermore, in July 2025, GEK TERNA Group and MOTOR OIL Group announced the signing of a binding agreement for the merger of their activities in the supply of electricity and natural gas and the power generation from natural gas thermal plants. On 7 January 2026, the European Commission for Competition approved the merger of the operations of HERON and NRG.
Under the agreed framework, a new corporate entity will be established (UtilityCo), in which GEK TERNA and MOTOR OIL will hold equal participation and voting rights. UtilityCo will eventually own HERON and NRG as well as the new natural gas fired unit (CCGT) in Komotini. Beyond the Komotini CCGT, that has a capacity of 877 MW, UtilityCo will also have full control of HERON II natural gas fired unit (CCGT) with a capacity of 435 MW.
Taking into account the above strategic decision of the Group to establish the new corporate structure, as described above, the outlook for GEK TERNA Group’s segment of Electricity Production from Thermal Energy Sources & Electricity & Natural gas trading for 2026 and the coming years remains positive, despite the challenging global economic environment.
In the Real Estate Operating Segment:
In the Real Estate sector, GEK TERNA maintains a strong presence in property management and development, with an extensive portfolio totaling approximately 124 mn euros in Greece, Romania, and Bulgaria.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Report of the fiscal year 1 January 2025 - 31 December 2025
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
39
The portfolio includes office buildings, shopping centers, industrial parks, as well as land in tourist areas. Land parcels represent approximately 70% of the portfolio and are located in strategically developing areas.
Portfolio management is aligned with current market conditions and the Group’s broader strategic plan, with the aim of optimizing performance and strengthening financial results.
During the 2025 period, the Real Estate Division implemented the following key strategies:
(a) Portfolio restructuring and utilization
Promotion of urban planning maturity and utilization through the sale of selected properties.
Notable examples:
Completed the sale of a plot of land in Kassiopi, Northern Corfu, for 4.6 mn euros
Completed the sale of a plot of land in the Thessaloniki Industrial Area for 1.95 mn euros
(b) Land use re-planning and commercial upgrading
Re-evaluation of the use of properties that have completed their revenue cycle (e.g., Ioannina, Volos), with the aim of maximizing returns.
In this context:
New commercial leases were secured for 65% of the total leasable area of the Ioannina Lakeside Commercial Park, with further positive developments expected.
(c) Development of new tourism projects
Urban planning and design of integrated tourism developments in rapidly growing areas, such as the 168,000sqm. urban planning zone on the Argolic Riviera
(d) Utilization of commercial real estate through concessions
Planning, development, and commercial operation of properties included in the portfolio through concession agreements. For example:
Completion of leases for commercial spaces along Attiki Odos, generating stable annual rental income
The outlook for GEK TERNA’s Real Estate sector for 2026 and beyond is positive, despite the challenges of the global economy. The strategy focuses on the continuous upgrading of the portfolio, the realization of capital gains, and the generation of stable and recurring revenue.
In the Quarry/Industry Operating Segment:
In the Industrial operating sector, GEK TERNA operates through its 100% subsidiary TERNA MAG, which develops and implements comprehensive industrial operations in the production of caustic and dibasic magnesia products, of various grades and chemical characteristics, with applications across a wide range of industrial uses.
The broader geopolitical and macroeconomic environment, combined with rising energy costs in Europe, disruptions in supply chains and transportation, as well as the overall uncertainty of the global

40
economy, are having a decisive impact on the competitiveness and growth of industrial activity in the European market during the current period.
In this context, GEK TERNA, following the actions implemented in 2025, is continuously evaluating its strategy in the Industrial sector, with the aim of optimizing the utilization of existing investments, maintaining production readiness and technical expertise, and adapting the operating model to current conditions.
At the same time, the Group is closely monitoring developments, with the goal of activating and further developing industrial activity when geopolitical, energy, and economic conditions allow for the creation of sustainable and competitive returns.
F.Alternative Performance Measurement Indicators (“APMI”)
(In the context of applying the Guidelines “Alternative Performance Measures” of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA/2015/1415el) which are applied from 3rd of July 2016 in the Alternative Performance Measures Indicators [APMI])
The Group utilizes Alternative Performance Measurement Indicators ("APMI") in its financial, operational and strategic planning decisions, as well as in evaluating and publishing its performance. These APMI serves to better understand the Group’s financial and operating results as well as its financial position. Alternative indicators should always be considered in conjunction with the financial results prepared in accordance with IFRSs and in no case should they replace them.
The following indicators are used when describing the Group's performance by segment:
A. ‘’Net Debt/(Surplus)’’
It is a ratio, through which the Group’s Management assesses the cash position of an operating segment at any given time. The ratio is defined as total loan liabilities and bank leases less cash and cash equivalents. If restricted deposits are excluded from the aforementioned ratio (note 20) and grants to be repaid (note 30) are added, then the item of "Adjusted Net Debt/(Surplus)" will arise.
The ratio for the financial years 2025 and 2024 is as follows:

1.1.1General basis for preparation of sustainability statements [ΒP-1]
The Sustainability Statement for the 2025 reporting period has been prepared on a consolidated basis for GEK TERNA Group, with the scope of consolidation aligning with the scope of the financial statements. The subsidiaries included in the consolidation are exempt from the individual sustainability statement according to Articles 19a(9) and 29a(8) of Directive 2013/34/EU, as no subsidiary is exempt from consolidated sustainability reporting.
To ensure alignment with the ESRS requirements, the Sustainability Statement includes information from the value chain (upstream and downstream) and all activities of the Group’s operational sectors, as mentioned in the relevant section of the financial statements. Furthermore, in the context of defining the reporting boundaries, all entities that are material to the Group’s impacts, risks and opportunities are included. Accordingly, the Sustainability Statement incorporates relevant information from entities that are fully consolidated or proportionately consolidated, as well as jointly controlled joint ventures accounted for using the equity method, where these are considered material to the Group’s value chain and sustainability matters. The reporting period is aligned with that of the financial statements, ensuring consistency and comparability. Additionally, policies, actions and targets are extended, where operationally and materially relevant, to both upstream and downstream value chain. Finally, when disclosing quantitative data, the Group considers information from the upstream and downstream value chain, provided it is feasible based on the availability of data directly from the value chain participants, otherwise, the information is based on estimates or approximations.
In preparing this Statement, the option to omit any information relating to intellectual property, knowhow, or innovation results, in accordance with ESRS 1, section 7.7. GEK TERNA Group, headquartered in Greece (an EU Member State), also applies the exemption from disclosing information on future developments or matters under negotiation, as provided for in Articles 19 and 29 of Directive 2013/34/EU.
The Sustainability Statement provides a detailed description of the Group’s approach to issues considered significant, based on the results of the Double Materiality Assessment, which is aligned with the ESRS standards.

Planned actions to improve accuracy in the future

ESRS E1 – Climate change

Gross Scope 3 Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Spendbased method

In calculating Scope 3 emissions, certain factors may lead to uncertainty in the results. The absence of primary data in various Scope 3 categories, due to its unavailability, means that calculations often depend heavily on secondary data and emission factors from general sources. This reliance can lead to discrepancies between actual emissions and the estimated figures recorded.

Supplier engagement and awarenessraising to promote the use of supplierspecific activity data

For cases where measurements include data from the upstream and/or downstream value chain estimated using indirect sources, this is noted in the relevant section. The description covers the defined measurements, the basis for preparation and the outcomes concerning accuracy levels.
Regarding the sources used for these estimates and the associated uncertainty, the Group specifies the assumptions made and provides information about the sources of uncertainty for the relevant quantitative measurements and/or monetary amounts.
Changes in the preparation or presentation of sustainability information
The current Sustainability Statement marks the second publication of GEK TERNA Group’s sustainability information, in alignment with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), as mandated by the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and Law 5164/2024. As such, it includes comparative information with respect to the previous reporting year.
It is noted that a change has been made compared to the previous Sustainability Statement (Annual Financial Report 2024), following a reassessment of the electricity price consumed by the subsidiary TERNA Bulgaria. As a result, the following information has been restated accordingly:

Experience, knowledge and skills
The Board of Directors and the ESG Committee consist of members who have the essential skills and specialized knowledge needed to manage sustainability issues effectively. This ensures they can supervise and guide the Group's sustainability strategy proficiently. Members are assessed and selected based on their expertise in areas like environmental management, social responsibility, and corporate governance, as well as their capacity to incorporate ESG principles into business decision‐making.
The Suitability Policy ensures that the Board of Directors has the necessary collective expertise to meet both medium‐term and long‐term sustainability objectives while also advancing the Group's strategic growth. Each Board member must adhere to defined individual and collective suitability standards. Moreover, the training policy for Board members and executives guarantees ongoing education for senior management and the ESG Committee on issues related to environmental, social, and governance matters.
In addition, the Group’s training policy for Board members and senior executives ensures the continuous enhancement of their knowledge of environmental, social and governance matters, thereby strengthening the ability of top management and the ESG Committee to respond effectively to emerging challenges.
Roles and responsibilities of relevant bodies/representatives regarding sustainability issues
To ensure an organized and standardized oversight process, a comprehensive governance framework has been developed. This framework includes clearly defined procedures, policies, and monitoring tools, as well as regular reports to the Board of Directors. The responsibilities and duties of each body or individual regarding sustainability related impacts, risks, and opportunities are documented in relevant policies. These include the Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG) Policy, the Code of Ethics and Conduct, and the Internal Rules of Operations.
Board of Directors
The Board of Directors (BoD) plays a crucial role in overseeing the ESG strategy, setting goals related to significant impacts, risks, and opportunities through the analysis of the internal and external environment. The BoD ensures the allocation of necessary resources, including human, financial, and technological resources, and approves appropriate actions to achieve the Group’s goals. The Group's progress towards its goals is monitored through regular reports and audits, allowing the BoD to make revisions when deemed necessary. This ensures alignment with strategic priorities and adjustments to the changing conditions of the business environment.
ESG Committee
The ESG Committee is responsible for monitoring the Group's performance in Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance issues and submitting proposals for improvement actions, aiming to create long‐term value. The Committee's role includes overseeing processes related to identifying impacts, risks, and opportunities associated with sustainability (Double Materiality Analysis) and integrating non‐financial factors into the Group's strategy and business decisions by informing the Board and supporting its decision‐making process. This approach ensures the Group's resilience and its ability to adapt to changes in the business environment.
GEK TERNA GROUP
Annual Financial Report of the fiscal year 1 January 2025 - 31 December 2025
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
52
The Committee closely monitors the progress on the goals and actions outlined in the Group's ESG policy and strategy, ensuring their effective implementation. Additionally, the Committee oversees the preparation of the sustainability report to ensure the Group aligns with all legislative and regulatory requirements.
Corporate Social Responsibility & Sustainable Development Department
The oversight and management of impacts, risks, and opportunities have been assigned to Corporate Social Responsibility & Sustainable Development Department. The Department is tasked with implementing actions related to the Group's ESG strategy and social responsibility initiatives, which include strategic planning, implementation of initiatives, impact assessment, and regular reporting of results.
Furthermore, the Department collaborates closely with other departments and divisions within the Group, as well as with external stakeholders and local communities, to ensure that the actions implemented are effective and aligned with the Group's overall sustainable development and social responsibility goals. The reporting line to the ESG Committee and the Board of Directors ensures that there is frequent and timely communication on sustainable development issues.
Risk Management Officer
In the process of identifying and overseeing risks, the Risk Management Officer also participates by assessing, monitoring, and managing potential risks that could affect the smooth operation of the business. There is close collaboration with all the Group's divisions, such as the Finance Division, the Health, Safety, and Environment Division, the Technical Office, and the Human Resources Division, to ensure that all potential risks are identified in a timely manner and addressed effectively. Environmental controls and due diligence analyses for managing and overseeing impacts, risks, and opportunities are embedded within the Group's internal operations, ensuring the resilience of the business model.
Additionally, a comprehensive risk management and an internal control system have been developed, covering all critical areas and designed to enhance the Group’s resilience and transparency. The system is based on structured processes, such as the Code of Ethics, the Internal Rules of Operation, and the principle of dual signatures. The system also includes due diligence actions during the selection of partners and regular audits by the relevant units. Risks are assessed based on probability and severity, and preventive measures are applied to mitigate them. The results are documented in reports that inform stakeholders and support decision‐making, while improvement suggestions are incorporated into the Group's strategic plans. These reports are periodically presented to the Board of Directors and the relevant Committees, facilitating continuous monitoring and improvement of the system.
1.2.2Information provided to and sustainability matters addressed by the undertaking’s administrative, management and supervisory bodies [GOV-2]
The Board members and the ESG Committee receive updates from the CSR & Sustainable Development Department on a quarterly basis, or more frequently if needed, regarding emerging issues regarding Sustainable Development and the effective implementation of related policies and actions. The ESG Committee ensures these topics align with the Group's strategy. In this context, meetings are held with relevant stakeholders to enhance the supervision of strategy implementation and the decision‐making process. This approach ensures that decisions are well‐informed and aligned
GEK TERNA GROUP

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
53
with the Group's strategic objectives, considering potential long‐term impacts and the dynamics of the external environment. Board members utilize the data derived from the identification of impacts, risks, and opportunities to more effectively oversee the organization's strategy. During the decision‐making process, the Board thoroughly evaluates the received reports, and the information collected from meetings, using this data to address current and future challenges and opportunities, considering both external and internal factors that affect the business model. The Board and the ESG Committee establish the Group’s goals which ensure performance monitoring through a system for collecting and analyzing key performance indicators (KPIs). The results are periodically presented by the Corporate Social Responsibility & Sustainable Development Department. If there are any deviations, corrective actions are taken, such as revising strategies or training personnel. During the reporting period, the Board and the ESG Committee approved the Group’s material impacts, risks, and opportunities, as identified by the Double Materiality Analysis.
1.2.3Integration of sustainability-related performance in incentive schemes [GOV-3]
GEK TERNA Group strategically integrates sustainability performance into its incentive system to ensure that individual and team objectives align with the organization's overall Sustainable Development goals, thereby strengthening employee commitment to generating long‐term value.
The Remuneration Policy specifies that the provision of short‐term variable compensation (Bonus) is tied to achieving specific targets in areas related to Sustainable Development, such as environmental impact (e.g., reduction of emissions) or people management and working conditions (e.g., number and severity of accidents, etc.). The targets are established through specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that relate to the values and strategic priorities of the Group and are determined by the Board of Directors.
These indicators are reviewed by the Remuneration Committee and approved by the General Assembly, as part of the existing Remuneration Policy. Decisions regarding the terms of incentive systems are approved and revised at the Board level with the endorsement of the General Assembly. Our compliance with disclosure requirements aligns with the remuneration report described in Articles 9a and 9b of the Directive 2007/36/EC on the exercise of certain rights of shareholders in listed companies.
This incentive system applies to Board members and senior management executives who are not members of the Board (Directors, Top Management Executives (TME)).
1.2.4Statement on due diligence [GOV-4]
GEK TERNA Group is committed to uphold the principles of sustainable development into its governance structure, ensuring responsible business practices that align with the applicable regulatory frameworks, including the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). At the same time, the Group recognizes the importance of systematic and comprehensive due diligence as a fundamental mechanism for responsible business conduct.
The due diligence process implemented by the Group is designed to identify, prevent, mitigate and address both actual and potential adverse impacts on the environment and society. The following table illustrates how and where the implementation of the main aspects and steps of the due diligence process is reflected in the relevant sustainability statement:

1.2.5Risk management and internal controls over sustainability reporting [GOV-5]
The risk management and internal control system related to sustainability reporting is structured to ensure the accuracy, completeness, and integrity of the data contained in this statement. In parallel, the Group has established a standardized and comprehensive sustainability reporting process, which defines the roles, steps and required control points for the collection, verification and documentation of information.
In this context, the Group has developed a coherent system for identifying, assessing and managing risks associated both with the data and the processes used to prepare the Sustainability Statement. To prioritize risks, parameters that assess the potential impact on the completion process of the sustainability statement are integrated. The main risks include data completeness, integrity, accuracy, and availability within the required timeframe.
To mitigate these risks, quality checks and meetings with relevant departments are conducted to address data gaps and enhance the reliability of the reports. The Group has also developed a framework for assumptions when direct data from the value chain is not available.
The Corporate Social Responsibility & Sustainable Development Department leads the implementation of the framework, working closely with other departments to collect and verify the data. Findings are regularly reported to the leadership of Corporate Social Responsibility & Sustainable Development Department and, if necessary, to the Board of Directors and the ESG Committee, ensuring transparency and alignment with the strategic sustainability objectives.

Annual Financial Report of the fiscal year 1 January 2025 - 31 December 2025
(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
59
contributing to a new, efficient development model that aligns with the Global Sustainable Development Goals.
The integration of Sustainable Development principles is reflected in the strategy, that has been designed to focus on identifying the most critical issues related to its activities and underlying challenges, as well as further incorporating sustainability into operations. The strategy aims at maximizing positive impacts and mitigating negative effects through the implementation of best practices, sustainable initiatives, and reliable partnerships. This dynamic approach is continuously expanding and improving for the benefit of all stakeholders, including shareholders, investors, employees, and society at large.

These targets include both the reduction of the carbon footprint of operations and the strengthening of the implementation of the principles of Sustainable Development across the Group.
Within the framework of sustainability strategy, GEK TERNA Group has identified three (3) main strategic pillars, aiming at creating long‐term positive impacts on an economic, social, and environmental level. These pillars focus on improving operational efficiency, reducing environmental footprint, promoting social responsibility, and enhancing corporate governance.

Pillars

Protecting the environment for present and future generations

Fostering a positive impact on our society

Building a sustainable workforce and resilient supply chain

(Amounts in thousands Euro, unless otherwise stated)
60
Expanding investments to implement green energy projects and increase the market share of clean energy.
Managing infrastructure with social and environmental responsibility, aiming to improve the quality of life in local communities and enhance economic development sustainably.
Reducing waste production at the source, increasing the recovery of valuable materials, and collaborating with certified waste management entities for environmentally sound disposal of residual waste.
Creating a supportive and dynamic work environment where employees can grow professionally and personally.
Continuously improving and committing in the field "Health & Safety at work."
Avoiding uncertainty and risks to ensure financial stability, promote sustainable growth, and create economic value.
Creating a positive impact on society through the systematic implementation of actions and initiatives.
GEK TERNA Group is also working to strengthen relationships with stakeholders, such as local communities, investors, and public sector bodies, promoting transparency and accountability. Additionally, the Group aims at expanding its presence in regions where it can significantly contribute to sustainable development, both nationally and internationally. These objectives underscore GEK TERNA Group's commitment to sustainable development and responsible business practices.
At the same time, the Group monitors its performance regarding sustainability goals through internal reports, quantitative performance indicators, and external audits/certifications to ensure that sustainability goals are effectively achieved. In this context, the annual Sustainable Development Report is also utilized, incorporating retrospective monitoring indicators to assess the current state within the organization and examine the effectiveness of the measures taken to achieve the set goals. Based on the results, processes considered environmentally burdensome or misaligned with the Group's goals are updated with improvement actions or, if feasible, replaced with more sustainable alternative practices.
The key future challenges for implementing the strategy include:
Technology integration: The effective integration of technologies across the Group’s operations and subsidiaries, without disrupting productivity, constitutes a significant challenge.
Regulatory compliance: Ongoing changes in climate‐related regulations and legislation require regular monitoring and allocation of resources to meet specific requirements.
Management of climate risks: Managing both physical and transition risks is a challenge as they can affect the Group's operations and business continuity.
Alignment with stakeholders: Balancing the interests of various stakeholders, including employees, suppliers, shareholders, and local communities, is complex and requires careful negotiation and communication for full alignment.
At the same time, the critical solutions/projects to be implemented include:
