Financial performance and inflation impact

• Q2 results were impacted by oil price-driven inflation, with an $18 million EBITDA hit from commodities and tariffs.

• Indexed contracts allow recovery of inflation costs, with most recovery expected in Q3 and Q4, and some possibly spilling into Q1 next year.

• Top line performance remains stable across regions, and guidance implies margin recovery in the second half of the year.

• Margins have expanded annually, with projections to reach 15% by 2030 and significant ROIC improvement by 2028.

• Revenue is projected to grow organically by $1 billion from 2025 to 2030, reaching $3.8 billion.

Commodity and cost management
