Risks | 25 Risks Foreign exchange risk The Group transacts business globally and is subject to risks associated with fluctuating foreign exchange rates. In the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, 32%, 36% and 34% of our revenue, respectively, were derived from sales in a currency different from the euro. Receivables denominated in a foreign currency are initially recorded at the exchange rate at the transaction date and subsequently re-measured in euro based on period-end exchange rates. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations are charged to income. The Group has primarily exposure to the USD, GBP, BRL, PLN and JPY as foreign currency. The exposure on MYR and CZK is limited. There is only a limited portion of turnover in local currency. If the U.S. dollar (rate for €1) would have appreciated by 10%, the net result would have been € 0.5 million higher, excluding the effect of the cash and term accounts held in U.S. dollars. If the U.S. dollar (rate for €1) would have depreciated by 10%, the net result would have been € 0.4 million lower, excluding the effect of the cash and term accounts held in U.S. dollars. To limit the exposure to foreign currency rate fluctuations on the U.S. dollar and the PLN, the Group has entered into currency rate swaps. As of December 31, 2025 the Group had hedge agreements in place for $8.1 million and PLN 2.0 million, all maturing before year-end 2026. We refer to note 20 for the related fair value of these derivatives. Inflation risk We transact business globally and are subject to risks associated with fluctuating inflation. The risk exists that, if inflation increases our costs of remuneration, materials, services, energy, and capital expenditures, we may not be able to offset such costs fully by increasing our selling prices. As such, in a high inflationary environment, our results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected. Liquidity risk The liquidity risk is that the Group may not have sufficient cash to meet its payment obligations. This risk is countered by day-by-day liquidity management at the corporate level. The Group has historically entered into financing and lease agreements with financial institutions to finance significant projects and certain working capital requirements. At December 31, 2025, we held cash and cash equivalents of € 133.9 million, while € 10.3 million of our € 63.1 million gross debt was short term. At December 31, 2025, we had an undrawn credit line of € 15 million as more fully described in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements.

​ Interest rate risk Although the Group mainly has loans outstanding with a fixed interest rate, some of the loans have been contracted with variable interest rates. The most significant loans with variable interest rates have been secured by means of a variable to fixed interest rate swap. We therefore believe that the Group is not subject to immediate changes in interest rates. Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that third parties may not meet their contractual obligations resulting in a loss for the Group. The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, which are mainly deposits with financial institutions. The Group limits this exposure by contracting with credit-worthy business partners or with financial institutions which meet high credit rating requirements. In addition, the portfolio of receivables is monitored on a continuous basis. Trade receivables and contracts in progress Customer credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Group’s established policy, procedures and controls relating to customer credit risk management. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date per company and using a provision matrix per company to measure expected credit losses. The provision rates are based on days past due for groupings of various customer segments with similar loss patterns (i.e., by legal entity). The calculation reflects the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. Generally, trade receivables are written-off if past due for more than one year and are not subject to enforcement activity. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets at amortized cost or fair value through OCI as disclosed in Note 20. The Group does not hold collateral as security. The Group evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers are located in several jurisdictions and industries and operate in largely independent markets. Set out below is the information about the credit risk exposure on the Group’s trade receivables using a provision matrix: ​

​ Capital management The primary objective of the Group’s shareholders’ capital management strategy is to ensure it maintains healthy capital ratios to support its business and maximize shareholder value. Capital is defined as the Group shareholder’s equity. The Group consistently reviews its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changing economic conditions. The Group made no changes to its capital management objectives, policies or processes during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. On November 20, 2025 the Group successfully completed an additional listing of its ordinary shares on Euronext Brussels to complement the existing Nasdaq listing of its American depositary shares (ADSs) representing ordinary shares. A listing on Euronext Brussels may give the company access to additional capital in the future if needed, and is intended to create additional liquidity options for shareholders of the Company. In addition, a listing on Euronext Brussels provides the Group with enhanced operational flexibility, including the option to initiate ADS and/or share buyback programs. No shares were offered and no capital was raised in connection with the Euronext Brussels listing. On November 14, 2025 the Company’s general shareholder’s meeting adopted a resolution authorizing the Board of Directors to effectively initiate an ADS and/or share buy back program for a total amount of up to € 30.0 million conditional upon completion of the abovementioned Euronext listing. Repurchases were expected to be initiated by no later than January 2026 and executed within 12 months following initiation. The Company’s current intention is to hold any ADSs acquired (or underlying shares) in treasury. The Company may in the future use these as a consideration for mergers and acquisitions, and/or otherwise dispose of those ADSs or shares, including for potential share delivery commitments under future equity incentive plans. By December 31, 2025 a mandate had been signed with an independent US financial intermediary to execute ADS repurchases on Nasdaq for a total amount of up to the USD equivalent of € 30.0 million. As of December 31, 2025, no transactions were executed yet.
