12 Trends We See → China Making Low-Cost Cars for Domestic and Export Markets China's largest markets – China, Russia, Latin America, Middle East and parts of Europe. Largely blocked from US, Canada, India, Turkey, and Brazil. NN has been in China in over 20 years om both auto and medical markets for machined and stamped parts. Sell a great mix of products in that market. NN is benefitting from the emergence of China as an auto exporter. For instance, NN's Wuxi plant sales are growing strongly with additional business wins for 2025, 2026 and 2027.

13 Trends We See → Tariffs are good for NN US has tariffs on certain auto parts and completed passenger vehicles -> now seeking to further protect US-based production Tariffs take aim at the expansion of low-cost alternative supply from China, Mexico, & Canada ▪ NN has ~$120 million of tariff-protected US-produced auto parts and will be further protected from these actions ▪ NN's US auto part business plan focus is to maintain market positions, but not overly invest ▪ Tariffs action will strengthen NN’s US automotive business ▪ Proposed tariffs increase NN’s competitiveness, strengthen pricing power and protect margins NN’s US auto parts business does not import from China ▪ NN is in the US for the US market NN also produces auto parts in China for the Chinese domestic market ▪ A $80 million wholly-owned China auto-part making business, and a $120 million JV that makes auto-parts for China (1) ▪ NN’s China production is consumed locally for the Chinese domestic auto market ▪ The China auto market is healthy and growing ▪ NN's China business will not be impacted by the proposed US tariffs

14 Trends We See → Steering Systems Electric steering systems continue to present content rich, powertrain-agnostic opportunities globally Quality, Innovation and Cost continue to drive sourcing to NN Inc. ▪ Higher torque outputs in smaller packaging by selective material science ▪ Noise vibration and harshness (NVH) optimizations through DFM Input ▪ Efficiency test results = reduced losses yield range extension, and reliability The NN Inc. Advantage: ▪ Advanced processing techniques for high torque materials ▪ Competence to optimize NVH and efficiency through manufacturing quality ▪ Best total cost solutions – a global partner to OEM and Tier 1 suppliers.
