Execution challenges in our Engineering Segment mostly limited to Denmark operations Q2 2024 Financial Results BDS Segment Driving Growth; Offset by Execution Challenges in Engineering Significant growth of the Segment over the last years Persistent delays in supply of electronic components Complexity of certain highly-customized projects  #1 priority is to bring these projects to completion, but this will take some time FY 2019 FY 2023 Third-party Revenue 81 €m 206 €m Segment Tot. Revenue (incl. Interco.) 127 €m 373 €m BDS Segment grew 9% driven by strong growth in syringes, despite a 40% decrease in revenue from bulk and ready-to-use vials (destocking) Delays on some Engineering projects and increased expenses related to actions taken in Q2 to address the delays, led to higher-than-anticipated costs. These factors are the main reason for the FY24 guidance revision Q2 2024 revenue slightly ahead of our expectations, but margins fell short in the Engineering Segment

Q2 2024 Financial Results Ongoing Actions to Drive Improvement; Demand Remains Robust Optimize Engineering footprint Harmonize industrial processes among sites Enhance supply chain and logistical strategies As a matter of example: Consolidated activities of two Denmark sites into a single location Implemented cross-site plan to support Denmark teams with our technical specialists from Italy  We expect this will also increase standardization of our technologies and processes across the Segment While costs of these initiatives will impact our FY 2024, they will help us optimize our operational structure, maximize efficiencies, and secure the success of ongoing projects Demand for Engineering remains favorable, as customers continue to secure manufacturing capacity for fast-growing biologics, and upgrade infrastructure to better align with regulatory requirements Ongoing initiatives to improve efficiencies across the Eng. Segment Also, we are still navigating through market-wide vial destocking. Positive signals with orders from smaller markets (e.g., Latin America) In larger markets, we still expect a more gradual recovery. Customers are sharing forecasts that point to improving demand and are beginning production planning. We are cautiously optimistic that vial orders will pick up at the tail-end of 2024, starting with bulk vials

Fishers (IN), U.S. Validation activities progressing as planned; progressing through first set of customer audits Took delivery of 2nd and 3rd high-performance syringe lines; installation and qualification underway On track to launch commercial production and generate revenue in Q3 24 China With our focus on the execution in Latina and Fishers, we decided to further postpone potential expansion in China for the coming 12 months.
