Arverne Group (ARVEN) investor relations material

Strategic vision and market positioning

• Aims to consolidate leadership in geothermal solutions and secure lithium supply for 800,000 electric vehicles annually, anchoring geothermal energy in the European energy mix.

• Operates an integrated model covering the full value chain: forages, heat/cold, and lithium, with 60 years of expertise and a strong client portfolio.

• Benefits from structural barriers to entry, including proprietary industrial capacity and rare combined expertise in geosciences, drilling, and energy engineering.

• Supported by a diverse base of industrial, institutional, and financial partners.

• Maintains a robust financial structure, with €25.2M equity (+46%), strong revenue growth, and a solid balance sheet.

Growth drivers, strategic roadmap, and operational execution

• Targets a fivefold increase in geothermal production in France by 2035, aiming for 4 TWh/year by 2031-2033 and exceeding 50% of national goals.

• Plans to double deep geothermal drilling capacity, quintuple surface drilling, and expand drilling fleet with two more rigs by 2031.

• Commercial acceleration with nearly 100 geothermal projects in the pipeline, including 30 heating & cooling projects by 2033, each generating €140 million over 30 years.

• First major urban heat network contract secured, delivering 115 GWh/year and reducing CO2 emissions by 20,000 tonnes.

• Roadmap includes first lithium production in 2028, targeting 27,000 tonnes/year and €450M average annual revenue over 30 years.

Competitive advantages and business model

• Integrated operations reduce costs, capture margins across the chain, and offer predictable, competitive pricing.

• Proprietary drilling fleet and in-house expertise enable rapid deployment and risk mitigation.

• Long-term contracts (25–30 years) ensure recurring cash flows and high EBITDA margins (up to 75% for lithium projects, 40-45% for heating & cooling).

• Strategic partnerships and project financing structures lower investment barriers for clients.

• Environmental leadership with geothermal lithium offering 70% lower CO2 emissions and 91% water recycling compared to conventional lithium.
