1. Main events of half-year ended 30 September 2024


1.1. Execution of Alstom deleveraging plan



On 23 May 2024, Alstom successfully placed an issuance of €750 million in principal amount of subordinated perpetual
securities. The bonds bear a fixed rate coupon of 5.868% per annum for the first 5.25 years and a resettable rate every
5 years thereafter. As of 30 September 2024, these securities are classified in Equity (see Financial Statement Note
16.3).

In June 2024, Alstom completed a share capital increase with shareholder’s preferential subscription rights in an
amount of €1 billion (see Financial Statement Note 16.1).

These proceeds were used to repay financial debt during the first semester:
• Repayment of Neu CP of €1,033 million;
• Repayment of RCF drawings of €175 million;
• Increase in cash and cash equivalents for the remaining amount.
Alstom terminated its €2.25 billion credit facility agreement on settlement of the share capital increase.



1.2. Sale of North American Signalling Business to Knorr-Bremse AG



On 30 August 2024, Alstom sold its North American conventional signalling business to Knorr-Bremse AG, following
the binding agreement signed on 19 April 2024, for a total amount of $689 million. The goodwill allocated to the
entities part of the transaction amounts to €298 million.

The gain arising from the sale net of the costs to sell stood at €18 million recognized in Other income associated with
a positive impact on Investing cash flows of €630 million including fees paid.



1.3. One Alstom team - Agile, Inclusive and Responsible



More than ever, decarbonization is at the heart of Alstom’s strategy. The Group is reducing its own direct and indirect
emissions (Scope 1 & 2) and is also committed to work with suppliers and customers (Scope 3) to contribute to Net
Zero carbon in the mobility sector. Thus, Alstom has signed a collaboration agreement with green steel supplier SSAB
which will support the objective of recycled content materials in projects.

The Group confirmed its ambitious commitment to use 100% of electricity from renewable energy sources by end of
2025, as part of its global initiative to reduce its environmental footprint. At the end of September 2024, the supply of
electricity from renewable sources reached 79% thanks to new green certificates used in Canada on sites as La Pocatière
and Saint Bruno and in Australia. In addition, Alstom continues installation of solar panels on relevant sites.

Alstom’s Corporate Social Responsibility performance is regularly evaluated by various rating agencies; the Group
maintained its presence among the CAC40 ESG index for the 4th consecutive year. Alstom strongly improved its scoring
to ECOVADIS questionnaire with a score of 86/100, complemented by a “Platinum” distinction, ranking Alstom in the
top 1% of the most engaged companies in environmental, sustainable procurement, ethics, human rights, and social

terms. Alstom kept an AA score with the MSCI agency and is part of the 2024 Global 100 ranking from Corporate
Knights. Those results reflect its strong position and strategy on Sustainability.

The aEBIT as a percentage of sales has progressed from 5.2% over the first semester of 2023/24 to 5.9% over the first
semester of 2024/25, benefiting from an increased volume for 20bps, a favourable mix for 5bps, industrial efficiencies
for 15bps as well as the reduction of Selling and Administrative costs for 35bps, partly offset by scope impact for
negative (5)bps.

1.5. Organic growth


For comparison purposes, the above-mentioned figures can be adjusted for foreign exchange variation resulting from
the translation of the original currency to Euro. The below tables show the conversion of prior year actual figures to a
like-for-like set of numbers:

The reported figures for orders received and sales of the first half of fiscal year 2023/24, and the backlog of
31 March 2024 have been restated to account for September 2024 exchange rates. This restatement revealed an
appreciation of the Euro against several currencies within the Alstom portfolio for orders and sales in the first half of
2023/24, as well as for the backlog as of 31 March 2024.

• Orders received have been affected by an unfavourable translation effect, primarily due to the depreciation of
the Philippine Peso (PHP), Brazilian Real (BRL), Indian Rupee (INR), and Romanian Leu (RON) against the
Euro (EUR). This unfavourable translation effect was partially mitigated by the appreciation of the Polish Zloty
(PLN) and the British Pound (GBP) against the Euro (EUR).

• Sales were mainly impacted by the depreciation of the Egyptian pound (EGP), Brazilian Real (BRL) Mexican
pesos (MXN) and Indian Rupee (INR) against the Euro (EUR), mitigated in part by the appreciation against
British Pound (GBP). In addition to exchange rates variances, sales had also been restated of scope impact
from Spanish joint-ventures and disposal of US signalling activities.

• Backlog was impacted by an unfavourable translation effect driven by the depreciation of the Mexican pesos
(MXN), the Kazakhstan tenge (KZT) and the US dollar (USD) against the Euro (EUR). This unfavourable
translation effect was partly offset by the appreciation of the South African rand (ZAR) against the Euro
(EUR).



1.6. Changes in consolidation scope



There are no significant changes in the consolidation scope between 31 March 2024 and 30 September 2024, other
than the sale of the North American Signalling Business (see section 1.2).

2. 2024/25 fiscal year outlook


Alstom has the following forecasts for the full 2024/25 fiscal year:

• Book to bill above 1
• Sales organic growth: around 5%
• aEBIT margin around 6.5 %
• Free Cash Flow generation within the €300 million to €500 million range


Underlying outlook assumptions
The forecasts for the fiscal year ending 31 March 2025 presented above have been prepared in accordance with the
accounting policies applied in the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended 31 March
2024. The adjusted EBIT margin and free cash flow are defined in section 10 “Definitions of non-GAAP financial
indicators”.

These forecasts are based on Alstom’s scope of consolidation and on foreign exchange rates available as of 31 March
2024. They are based on the following principal assumptions:



Alstom internal assumptions
• Fiscal year 2024/25 commercial activity will be fostered by market momentum resulting in an increase of the
volume of orders received in Alstom’s key activities and regions compared to the previous fiscal year.

• Sales improvement in the fiscal year 2024/25 as compared to the fiscal year 2023/24 will primarily come
from the execution of the orders backlog.

• Adjusted EBIT margin improvement compared to the fiscal year 2023/24 will stem from several factors.
Alstom will benefit from an increase in the volume of activity and will decrease the contribution of non-
performing contracts to overall sales. This positive mix effect is explained by the progress of non-performing
contracts and their replacement by contracts with higher margin. In parallel, Alstom will generate savings
thanks to the overhead cost reduction plan and will maintain a strict monitoring of research and development
costs.

• Standardisation of engineering tools and processes together with design to cost, and optimisation of Alstom’s
footprint both for engineering and manufacturing, will support the improvement of Alstom’s overall
performance. In addition, digital transformation, combined with effective discipline in overhead cost
management and in indirect procurement, will contribute to the improvement of the adjusted EBIT margin
while the integration of Bombardier will end in fiscal year 2024/25.


• Improved cash generation in fiscal year 2024/25 as compared to the fiscal year 2023/24 will mainly come
from accelerated deliveries and working capital management, while the 2024/25 downpayments level shall
remain consistent with 2023/24 level.


• Balance sheet inorganic deleveraging plan - as described in the Universal Registration Document 2023/24
chapter 2.9 Subsequent events – has been fully executed in fiscal year 2024/25. See section 1.1 (“Execution
of Alstom deleveraging plan”).



7



Macro-economic assumptions

• They exclude any major variations in currency exchange rates of the main countries outside of the Euro-zone
in which the Group generates its revenues, compared to the rates in effect as of 31 March 2024.

• They assume an overall stable environment in areas where Alstom operates or delivers products.

• They assume stabilisation of inflation at levels lower than in 2022 and 2023 in line with inflation forecasts
from external agencies (IMF and ECB).



Disclaimer
The above summary of the Group’s outlook contains forward-looking statements which are based on current plans and
forecasts of Alstom’s management. Such forward-looking statements are relevant to the current scope of activity and
are by their nature subject to a number of important risks and uncertainties (such as those described in the chapter 4
of the Universal Registration Document 2023/24 filed by Alstom with the French AMF) that could cause actual results
to differ from the plans, objectives and expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements. These forward-
looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and Alstom undertakes no obligation to update
or revise any of them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.



The Group has updated its capital allocation priorities
• Priority to deleveraging and maintaining Investment Grade rating
• Dividends policy to be re-evaluated once zero net financial debt is reached
• M&A policy:
o Pursue bolt-on acquisitions (Innovation, Digital, Services)
o Dynamic portfolio management

3. Commercial performance


In the first half of fiscal year 2024/25, the Group experienced notable commercial success, particularly in Europe and
across various product lines, with a strong emphasis on Rolling Stock, Services, and Signalling. The order intake
amounted to €10.9 billion, reflecting a 30% increase from €8.4 billion in the corresponding period of fiscal year 2023/24.
This growth is largely attributed to the following award of the €3.6 billion S-Bahn Cologne contract.

In Europe, Alstom achieved an order intake of €8.5 billion during the first half of fiscal year 2024/25, compared to €5.2
billion for the same period in the previous fiscal year.

In Germany, Alstom was awarded a contract to supply 90 Adessia StreamTM commuter trains to the local rail passenger
transport authorities, go.Rheinland and Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Ruhr (VRR), for operation within the S-Bahn Cologne
network. This contract also encompasses a long-term full-service agreement lasting 34 years.

Additionally, the Group entered into a framework agreement with Hamburger Hochbahn AG to provide up to 374 new
metro trains and innovative signalling technology, with the first call-off under this agreement for the initial section of
the U5 line valued at approximately €670 million.

In France, Alstom will supply 12 Avelia Horizon™ very high-speed trains to Proxima, a newly established private
operator. This marks a turning point for the French railway market, as it opens for the first time in history the Atlantic
coast lines to a private operator. Avelia Horizon reduces operating costs compared to other high-speed trains. The train
has fewer bogies, which account for 30% of the cost of preventive maintenance. With the largest passenger capacity
in the market, Avelia Horizon offers great level of service and comfort, and consequently lowers operating costs per
seat. As part of this contract, Alstom will also provide maintenance for 15 years, offering operational performance while
optimizing the residual value to meet Proxima’s specific needs. The total value of this order is nearly €850 million.

In Italy, the Group received a contract from Mercitalia Rail for the supply of 70 Traxx TM Universal locomotives, along
with 12 years of comprehensive maintenance services. This contract is valued at over €323 million and includes the
option to deliver an additional 30 locomotives and extend the maintenance services.

Last year's performance in Europe was predominantly driven by significant orders from customers in Germany, France,
Romania, and Italy.

In the Americas, Alstom reported an order intake of €0.9 billion, compared to €1.5 billion during the same period of
the previous fiscal year, driven by the awarding of several small contracts. Last year’s performance in the Americas
was largely influenced by two significant contracts: one for the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority
(SEPTA) and the other for the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT).

In Asia/Pacific, the order intake reached €1 billion, as compared to €1.7 billion over the same period last fiscal year.
In Australia, Alstom in partnership with DT Infrastructures has been awarded by the Public Transport Authority of
Western Australia (PTA) a contract to provide the design, supply, construction, installation, testing, commissioning and
maintenance of high capacity signalling technology for Perth’s suburban rail network. Alstom’s contract share is valued
at approximately €0.7 billion.

Last year’s performance in Asia/Pacific was driven by significant contracts with the North South Commuter Railway
project (NSCR) in Philippines and with the Department of Transport Victoria in Australia.

In Africa/Middle East/Central Asia, the Group reported €0.5 billion order intake driven by a new services contract
from an undisclosed customer, as compared to €35 million over the same period last fiscal year.



Alstom received the following major orders during the first half of fiscal year 2024/25:


Country Product Description

4. Backlog


As of 30 September 2024, the backlog stood at €94.4 billion, providing the Group with strong visibility over future
sales. This represents a 3% increase on both an actual basis and on an organic basis as compared to
31 March 2024. The increase of backlog is mostly driven by a favourable book-to-bill ratio of 1.25.

The depreciation of several currencies against the Euro (EUR) since March 2024, mainly the Mexican peso (MXN) and
the US dollar (USD) in Americas, the Kazakhstan tenge (KZT) in Africa/Middle East/Central Asia, negatively impacted
backlog for a total amount of €0.5 billion. This mainly affected the backlog of systems and services products.

In Europe, sales surpassed €4.9 billion, accounting for 56% of the Group’s total sales and representing an increase of
1% on an actual basis. It was mainly driven by the continued execution of large rolling stock contracts, including the
Coradia StreamTM trains in the Netherlands, the Regio 2N regional trains, the Avelia TM high-speed trains for SNCF as
well as EMU trains for the Paris Metro for RATP in France, the Coradia Stream TM regional trains for Trenitalia in Italy
and the double-deck M7-type multifunctional coaches for SNCB in Belgium. The ramp-up of Systems contracts in
France has also been a strong contributor to this growth. On the other hand, large Rolling Stock contracts such as ICx
trains in Germany & Aventra programme in the United Kingdom are close to completion, therefore generating lower
level of sales as compared to the same period last year.

In Americas, sales stood at €1.8 billion, accounting for 21% of the Group’s sales and representing an increase of 9%
compared to last year on an actual basis. The strong growth was mainly driven by the ramp up in the Latin Americas,
in particular Tren Maya project for the National Fund for the Promotion of Tourism in Mexico together with the
MetropolisTM trains for São Paulo Metropolitan Train System in Brazil . The projects of San Francisco Bart, Amtrak
high-speed trains in the United States and the light metro system for REM in Canada all remain key sales contributors
within the North America region.

In Asia/Pacific, sales amounted to €1.3 billion, accounting for 15% of the Group’s sales and representing an increase
of 13% compared to last year on an actual basis. Growth was delivered across all the product lines, especially Rolling
Stock, and was driven by the continuous ramp-up of the production of the Alstom MoviaTM cars for LTA Singapore and
the VLocityTM regional trains for The Department of Transport (DoT) in Victoria in Australia.



12



In Africa/Middle East/Central Asia, sales stood at €0.7 billion, contributing to 8% to the Group’s total sales
representing low single digit growth on an organic basis. The rolling stock contract for the X’Trapolis TM Mega commuter
trains in South Africa as well as the PrimaTM freight locos for Kazakh Railways and Azerbaijan Railways, are the main
sales contributors within the region.



5.2. Research and development



As of 30 September 2024, research and development gross costs amounted to €(326) million, i.e. 3.7% of sales,
reflecting the Group’s continuous investment in innovation to develop smarter and greener mobility solutions, in line
with the Alstom In Motion strategy which is based on three pillars: Autonomous mobility, Data factory and Mobility
orchestration. Net R&D amounted to €(256) million before PPA amortisation.

Alstom Rolling Stock Product Line is addressing major developments. Homologation tests of Avelia Horizon™ are
planned in 2024 to enable a start of revenue service in 2025 for SNCF in France. A new order for 12 trains based on
the same product has been received from Proxima. This world’s only double-deck train running at over 300km/h will
allow higher flexibility in configuration, reduce operating costs, weight and energy consumption, while providing larger
capacity and higher level of services and comfort. In parallel, the development of international configurations is
ongoing. Alstom has also launched the development of Avelia stream™, addressing the high-speed single deck
segment.
The replacement of our existing range of commuter trains by Adessia™ has been launched to address the U.K., Germany
and the 15kV network, and the U.S. markets. This new product range will enhance the passenger experience and tackle
operational challenges in terms of energy efficiency and maintenance operations.
Alstom has also further extended the Coradia stream™ range with longer cars and 15kV traction chains (primarily in
Germany). This range will also include BEMU (Battery Electric) version.
Furthermore, large gauge Metropolis™ is being redesigned with a focus on energy efficiency and manufacturability to
better address the Indian market.

Alstom Services Product Line is focused on addressing green, sustainable and more efficient operation concepts. Green
re-tractioning initiatives can be adapted to any rolling stock and address different technological solutions.
Building on our recent plans to operate passenger train service in the UK for the first time, the new offering for open
access operations aim to broaden our portfolio of services in the passenger transport market.

In addition to the HealthHub™ solution, now implemented on projects, Alstom continues to enhance innovative digital
solutions dedicated to operation and maintenance activities to optimise reliability and availability while maximising the
useful life of components for sustainability improvement.

Alstom Signalling Product Line has continued working on Onvia Control™ L2 convergence with its introduction on
German market, and on Onvia Cab™ level 2 and level 3 on-board solutions together with Automatic Train Operation.
Alstom continued developing CBTC solutions Urbalis Fluence™ (e.g., Hamburg DT6/U5 Paris Nexteo, Paris L18, Torino
L1), Urbalis Forward™ (e.g., Perth, Bangalore) and Urbalis Flo™ (e.g., Jeddah APM, Tampa APM, Las Vegas APM) for
metros and tramways, and Urbalis Vision Forward™ for Operational Control Centres, maximising traffic fluidity and
orchestrating operations remotely.
Alstom Signalling also plays a key role in the System and Innovation Pillar by defining a harmonised functional
architecture for the rail system including migration paths and regulatory framework as well as contributing to several
flagship projects: MOTIONAL (FP1), R2DATO (FP2) and FUTURE (FP6).

Alstom Innovations has continued to develop Autonomous Mobility solutions for Passengers & Freight trains and had
successful remote driving tests and autonomous driving & perception demonstrated with LNVG during the Innotrans
press tour organized by ALTOM.
Alstom Innovations continues to investigate on various fields : Alstom relies heavily on Artificial Intelligence for various
applications such as predictive maintenance, autonomous systems, and operational efficiency ; Alstom uses simulations
to provide an accessible and controlled environment to test and validate new technologies and systems before they are
deployed in real-world scenarios ; or another innovative proposal , named “ Animal Repellent”, tested in Sweden with
Trafikverket, aims to prevent animal collisions based on picture analytics AI algorithms and tailored repellent noise.
Alstom has also made great strides in developing a new SaaS platform that will enhance its global digital offering. The
platform streamlines applications integration and deployment in a trusted and future-proof ecosystem. The platform's
data exchange and sharing capabilities not only provide enhanced value for Alstom’s customers, but also enable Alstom
to explore new data-driven use cases and analysis, facilitating integration of new digital services throughout the project
lifetime.
Among many different use cases on data-driven features being developed, the one on analysing the quality of train
services to ground communication is key : any lack of real-time radio communication between the train and the back-
office signalling system can cause stoppages and disruptions (e.g. through the use of EB, or Emergency Brakes),
causing operational delays. To understand the reasons for EBs if any, and anticipate radio issues, Alstom has developed
Radioscopy, an AI-based solution, designed to monitor and diagnose issues on CBTC networks. Until now, the solution
has been successfully deployed on six different projects, improving radio reliability.



5.3. Operational performance



The aEBIT as a percentage of sales has progressed from 5.2% over the first semester of 2023/24 to 5.9% over the first
semester of 2024/25, benefiting from an increased volume for 20bps, a favourable mix for 5bps, industrial efficiencies
for 15bps as well as the reduction of Selling and Administrative costs for 35bps, partly offset by scope impact for
negative (5)bps.

Selling and Administrative costs as a percentage of sales represented 6.0% for the group as compared to 6.4% on an
actual basis last year, benefiting from the implementation of the S&A cost efficiency plan initiated during the second
half of fiscal year 2023/24.


14



Over the period, the contribution resulting from the inclusion of the share in net income of the equity-accounted
investments whose activity are considered as part of the operating activities of the Group amounted to €71 million,
increasing from the €65 million reported in the same period last fiscal year, benefiting from strong performance of joint
ventures. The contribution from CASCO Signal Limited joint venture and Alstom Sifang (Qingdao) Transportation Ltd.
amounted to €31 million and €20 million respectively, compared to €30 million and €13 million respectively in the
same period last year. The contribution of the remaining joint ventures amounted to €20 million, as compared to €22
million in the same period last year.



5.4. From adjusted EBIT to adjusted net profit



During the first half of fiscal year 2024/25, Alstom recorded €21 million capital gains mainly related to divesture of the
North American conventional signalling business for €18 million and the sale of land in a German site for €3 million.

Integration costs & others before impairment of tangible assets related to PPA amounted to €(82) million, consisting
of costs related to the integration of Bombardier Transportation for an amount of €(51) million, €(7) million of legal
fees in the context of Bombardier Transportation’s integration remedies, €(6) million related to other legal proceedings,
€(11) million of consequential impacts from saving plan initiated in Germany, and other exceptional expenses for €(7)
million. Overall, Alstom’s other income/ expenses for the first half of fiscal year 2024/25 amounted to €(62) million, a
€36 million decrease in comparison to the same period last fiscal year.

Taking into consideration restructuring and rationalisation charges, capital gains on disposal of business, integration
costs, impairment loss & others, Alstom’s EBIT before amortisation and impairment of assets exclusively valued when
determining the purchase price allocation (“PPA”) stood at €382 million. This compares to €275 million in the same
period last fiscal year.

Net financial expenses of the period amounted to €(107) million as compared to €(98) million in the same period last
fiscal year, driven by lower net interest expenses due to the execution of the deleverage plan offset by adverse FX
Forward Points and other costs.

The Group recorded an income tax charge of €(81) million in the first half of fiscal year 2024/25, corresponding to an
effective tax rate before PPA of 37%, compared to €(28) million for the same period last fiscal year and an effective tax
rate of 25%. The effective tax rate has increased temporarily due to non-cash write down of some deferred tax assets
in certain countries. Consistently with medium term plan, the structural Effective Tax Rate estimated remains at around
27%.

The share in net income from equity investments amounted to €60 million – excluding the amortisation of the purchase
price allocation (“PPA”) mainly from Chinese joint ventures of €(6) million –, compared to €53 million in the same
period last fiscal year, with strong performances from CASCO joint venture as well as Alstom Sifang (Qingdao)
Transportation Ltd. and Jiangsu Alstom NUG Propulsion System Co. Ltd.

Net profit attributable to non-controlling interest totalled €10 million, compared to €12 million in the same period last
fiscal year.

Adjusted net profit, representing the group’s share of net profit from continued operations excluding PPA and
impairment net of tax, amounts to €224 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024/25. This compares to an adjusted
net profit of €174 million in the same period last fiscal year.




15



5.5. From adjusted net profit to net profit



During the first half of fiscal year 2024/25, amortisation & impairment of assets exclusively valued when determining
the purchase price allocation (“PPA”) in the context of business combination amounted to €(189) million before tax,
stable compared to the same period last year. Positive tax effect associated with the PPA amounts to €20 million,
compared to €16 million last fiscal year.

The Group’s share of net profit from continued operations (Group share), including net effect from PPA after tax for
€(169) million, stood at €55 million, compared to €1 million in the same period last fiscal year.

The net profit from discontinued operations for the first half of fiscal year 2024/25 is €(2) million. As a result, the
Group’s Net profit (Group share) stood at €53 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024/25, compared to €1 million
in the same period last fiscal year.

6. Free cash-flow




(1) Does not include restructuring provisions changes and corporate tax changes - see definition in section 10 (“Definitions of non-GAAP financial
indicators").

The Group’s Free Cash Flow stands at €(138) million for the first half of fiscal year 2024/25 as compared to €(1,119)
million during the same period last fiscal year.

Cash generation was impacted by an unfavourable €(420) million change in working capital compared to €(1,375)
million in the same period last fiscal year; mostly due to the trade working capital built up by €(435) million, impacted
by the seasonal increase in inventory levels notably to prepare the higher production in the second semester.
Additionally, the Contract Working Capital has improved by €15 million compared to €(645) million in the same period
last fiscal year. This evolution is due to continued industrial activity, project working capital phasing and supported by
the level of downpayments received over the first half of fiscal year 2024/25.

Funds from Operations stand at €282 million, compared to €256 million in the same period last fiscal year, mainly
driven by the improved EBIT before PPA of €382 million compared to €275 million in the same period last fiscal year
and partially offset by an increase in capital expenditure.

Depreciation and amortisation excluding PPA amounted to €234 million (€417 million including PPA) compared to
€211 million in the same period last fiscal year (€395 million including PPA). Right-of-use assets amortisation
amounted to €71 million compared to the €61 million for first half of the last fiscal year.

JV dividends amounted to €92 million compared to €106 million, including receipts as per plan for the first half.

In the first half of 2024/25 fiscal year, Alstom spent €(131) million in capital expenditures excluding R&D, as compared
to €(86) million in the same period last fiscal year. The Capex program was focused on Capacity & projects investments
mainly in France, Europe and United States as well as developing further the industrial base in best cost countries as
Poland, Romania & Kazakhstan. Furthermore, Alstom continued to invest in energy savings & safety, supporting the
Company’s target in reducing its CO2 emission.

7. Net Cash/(debt)


At 30 September 2024, the Group recorded a net debt position of €(927) million (see section 10.9), compared to the
€(2,994) million net cash balance that was reported on 31 March 2024. The €2,067 million reduction is driven by the
execution in Q1 of deleveraging plan for € 2,321 million including capital increase, issuance of subordinated perpetual
securities and disposal of business and Free Cash Flow consumption of €(138) million. It is also impacted by €(4)
million dividend pay-out, €(82) million lease, and €(31) million other items including FX and remedies.

Alstom has successfully executed its deleverage plan resulting in the termination of a €2.25 billion credit facility
agreement as announced previously.

In addition to its available cash and cash equivalents, amounting to €1,789 million at 30 September 2024, the Group
benefits from strong liquidity with:

• €1.75 billion short term Revolving Credit Facility maturing in January 2027;
• €2.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility maturing in January 2029.

At 30 September 2024, both Revolving Credit Facility lines remained undrawn.

As per Group’s conservative liquidity policy, the €2.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility serves as a back-up of the Group
€2.5 billion NEU CP program in place.



8. Equity


The Group Equity on 30 September 2024 amounted to €10,503 million (including non-controlling interests), from
€8,778 million on 31 March 2024, impacted by:
• Net profit/(loss) of €63 million (Group share);
• Capital subscription of €999 million (€986 million net including fees);
• Subordinated perpetual securities of €750 million (€738 million net including fees);
• OCI on Derivatives and Pension net of tax of €(23) million;
• Currency translation adjustment of €(18) million.



9. Subsequent events


On 2 October 2024, Alstom management announced to the European employee representatives a project to strengthen
the structural transformation of the German industrial footprint to size it to the medium and long-term Group ambitions
in this country. This project will encompass several initiatives of which a reduction of the rolling stock capabilities in
several sites, including the closure of one site, a deployment of additional capabilities for the growth of Services and
D&IS business, and a plan to adjust headcount in White-Collar functions.

10. Non-GAAP financial indicators definitions


This section presents financial indicators used by the Group that are not defined by accounting standard setters.



10.1. Orders received



A new order is recognised as an order received only when the contract creates enforceable obligations between the
Group and its customer.

When this condition is met, the order is recognised at the contract value.

If the contract is denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the reporting unit, the Group requires
the immediate elimination of currency exposure using forward currency sales. Orders are then measured using the spot
rate at inception of hedging instruments.



10.2. Book-to-bill



The book-to-bill ratio is the ratio of orders received to the amount of sales traded for a specific period.



10.3. Gross Margin % on backlog



Gross Margin % on backlog is a KPI that presents the expected performance level of firm contracts in backlog. It
represents the difference between the sales not yet recognized and the cost of sales not yet incurred from the contracts
in backlog. This % is an average of the portfolio of contracts in backlog and is meaningful to project mid- and long-term
profitability.



10.4. Adjusted Gross Margin before PPA



Adjusted Gross Margin before PPA is a KPI that presents the level of recurring operational performance. It represents
the sales minus the cost of sales, adjusted to exclude the impact of amortisation of assets exclusively valued when
determining the PPA in the context of business combination as well as significant, non-recurring “one off” items that
are not expected to occur again in subsequent years.




19



10.5. Adjusted EBIT and EBIT before PPA



10.5.1. Adjusted EBIT



Adjusted EBIT (“aEBIT”) is a KPI that presents the level of recurring operational performance. This KPI is also aligned
with market practice and comparable to the Group’s direct competitors.

Since September 2019, Alstom has opted for the inclusion of the share in net income of the equity-accounted
investments into the aEBIT even though this component is part of the operating activities of the Group (because there
are significant operational flows and/or common project execution associated with these entities). This mainly includes
Chinese joint ventures, namely CASCO joint venture for Alstom as well as, following the integration of Bombardier
Transportation, Alstom Sifang (Qingdao) Transportation Ltd., Jiangsu Alstom NUG Propulsion System Co. Ltd.

aEBIT corresponds to Earning Before Interests and Tax adjusted for the following elements:
• Net restructuring expenses (including rationalisation costs);
• Tangibles and intangibles impairment;
• Capital gains or loss/revaluation on investments disposals or controls changes of an entity;
• Any other non-recurring items, such as some costs incurred to realise business combinations and amortisation
of an asset exclusively valued in the context of business combination, as well as litigation costs that have
arisen outside the ordinary course of business;
• And including the share in net income of the operational equity-accounted investments.

A non-recurring item is a significant, “one-off” exceptional item that is not expected to occur again in subsequent years.

Adjusted EBIT margin corresponds to Adjusted EBIT expressed as a percentage of sales.



10.5.2. EBIT before PPA



Following the Bombardier Transportation acquisition and with effect from the fiscal year 2021/22 condensed
consolidated financial statements, Alstom decided to introduce the “EBIT before PPA” KPI aimed at restating its
Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (“EBIT”) to exclude the impact of amortisation of assets exclusively valued when
determining the PPA in the context of business combination. This KPI is also aligned with market practice.

The non-GAAP measure aEBIT and EBIT before PPA KPI reconcile with the GAAP measure EBIT as follows:
Half-Year ended Half-Year ended

30 September 2024 30 September 2023
(in € million)
Sales 8,775 8,443
Adjusted Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (aEBIT) 515 438
aEBIT (in % of Sales) 5.9% 5.2%
Capital Gains / (losses) on disposal of business 21 1
Restructuring and rationalisation costs (1) (7)
Integration costs, impairment and other (82) (92)

EARNING BEFORE INTEREST AND TAXES (EBIT) BEFORE PPA & IMPAIRMENT 382 275
(1)
PPA amortisation & impairment (183) (184)
EARNING BEFORE INTEREST AND TAXES (EBIT) 199 91
(1) Gross amount before tax excl. PPA from joint ventures reported as share in net income of equity investees

20



10.6. Adjusted net profit



The “Adjusted Net Profit” KPI restates Alstom’s net profit from continued operations (Group share) to exclude the
impact of amortisation of assets exclusively valued when determining the PPA in the context of business combination,
net of the corresponding tax effect.
Adjusted net profit reconciles with the GAAP measure Net profit from continued operations attributable to equity
holders (Net profit from continued operations – Group share) as follows:

Half-Year ended Half-Year ended

30 September 2024 30 September 2023
(in € million)
Adjusted Net Profit 224 174
Amortization & impairment of assets valued when determining the purchase price allocation (169) (173)
NET PROFIT (LOSS) FROM CONTINUED OPERATIONS (GROUP SHARE) 55 1



10.7. Free cash flow



Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures including capitalised
development costs, net of proceeds from disposals of tangible and intangible assets. Free Cash Flow does not include
any proceeds from disposals of activity.

The most directly comparable financial measure to Free Cash Flow calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS
is net cash provided by operating activities.

A reconciliation of Free Cash Flow and net cash provided by operating activities is presented below:

Half-Year
Year ended
ended
30 September 30 September
(in € million) 2024 2023
Net cash provided by / (used in) operating activities 72 (967)
Of which operating flows provided / (used) by discontinued operations
Capital expenditure (including capitalised R&D costs) (214) (156)
Proceeds from disposals of tangible and intangible assets 4 4
FREE CASH FLOW (138) (1,119)


Alstom uses the Free Cash Flow both for internal analysis purposes as well as for external communication as the Group
believes it provides accurate insight into the actual amount of cash generated or used by operations.

During the first half of fiscal year 2024/25, the Group Free Cash Flow was at €(138) million compared to €(1,119)
million in the same period last fiscal year.



10.8. Capital employed



Capital employed corresponds to assets minus liabilities, each defined as follows:

• Assets: sum of goodwill, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, equity-accounted investments and
other investments, other non-current assets (other than those related to financial debt and to employee

21



defined benefit plans), inventories, costs to fulfil a contract, contract assets, trade receivables and other
operating assets;

• Liabilities: sum of non-current and current provisions, contract liabilities, trade payables and other operating
liabilities.

At the end of September 2024, capital employed stood at €11,868 million, from €11,627 million on 31 March 2024.

less borrowings. On 30 September 2024, the Group recorded a net cash level of €(927) million, as compared to the net
cash position of €(2,994) million on 31 March 2024.

10.10. Organic basis



Management report on condensed interim consolidated financial statements include KPIs presented on an actual basis
and on an organic basis. Figures given on an organic basis eliminate the impact of changes in scope of consolidation
and changes resulting from the translation of the accounts into Euro following the variation of foreign currencies
against the Euro.

The Group uses figures prepared on an organic basis both for internal analysis and for external communication, as it
believes they provide means to analyse and explain variations from one period to another. However, these figures are
not measurements of performance under IFRS.

effective tax rate before PPA of 37%, compared to €(28) million for the same period last fiscal year and an effective tax
rate of 25%. The effective tax rate has increased temporarily due to non-cash write down of some deferred tax assets

Bombardier Transportation negotiated extended payment terms of 210 to 240 days after delivery with certain of its
suppliers, that have the possibility to early finance their receivables through a supply chain financing program supported
by third parties. Those third parties are not committed, and suppliers have the right to return to original payment terms
for future payables upon providing a minimum notice period. The Group considers that the balance of trade payables
supported by the supply chain financing program does not have the nature of a financial debt as the extension of the
payment terms are not contractually linked to the existence of the supply chain financing program. However, following
IFRIC Update issued in December 2020, the Group decided to present the amounts of trade payables supported by the
supply chain financing arrangement and exceeding regular payment terms on a dedicated line item of its balance sheet
in the other current liabilities.

Provisions for warranties relate to estimated costs to be incurred over the residual contractual warranty period.

Provisions for risks on contracts relate to provisions on contract losses and to commercial disputes and operating risks.

In relation to uncertain tax treatments and tax risks, the Group tax filings are subject to audit by tax authorities in most
jurisdictions in which the Group operates. These audits may result in assessment of additional taxes that are
subsequently resolved with the authorities or potentially through the courts. The Group believes that it has strong
arguments against the questions being raised, that it will pursue all legal remedies to avoid an unfavorable outcome
and that it has adequately provided for any risk that could result from those proceedings where it is probable that it
will pay some amounts. Following IFRIC 23 application in April 2019, it is reminded that liabilities for uncertainty over
income tax treatments are now presented as tax liabilities on the line corporate income tax in the other current
operating liabilities (see Note 15.3).

Restructuring provisions mainly derive from the implementation of the existing restructuring plans.

Other non-current provisions mainly relate to guarantees delivered or risks in connection with disposals, employee
litigations, commercial disputes, and environmental obligations.

The management identifies and analyses on a regular basis current litigations and other risks, using its best estimate
to assess, when necessary, provisions. These estimates take into account information available and different possible
outcomes. Main disputes are described in Note 23.



G. EQUITY AND DIVIDENDS

NOTE 16. EQUITY

49



16.1 Capital



At 30 September 2024, the share capital of Alstom amounts to €3,230,567,095 consisting of 461,509,585 ordinary
shares with a par value of €7 each. Over the period, the weighted average number of ordinary shares amounts to
438,651,918 after the effect of all dilutive instruments.

During the period ended 30 September 2024:

• 76,858,213 ordinary shares were issued as part of the capital increase;

• 360,304 ordinary shares were issued under long term incentive plans.




16.2 Currency translation adjustment

As at 30 September 2024, the currency translation group reserve amounts to €(538) million.

The currency translation adjustment, presented within the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for €(18)
million, primarily reflects the effect of variations of British Pound (€24 million), Swiss Franc (€20 million), partially
offset by the Mexican Pesos (€(31) million), and Brazilian real (€(23) million) and Indian Rupee (€(16)) million, against
the Euro for the half-year ended 30 September 2024.


16.3 Subordinated perpetual securities

As highlighted in Note 1 Alstom issued in May 2024 subordinated perpetual securities amounting to €750 million, with
a coupon of 5.868% per annum for the first 5.25 years and a resettable rate every 5 years thereafter.

The subordinated perpetual securities issued by the Group include redemption options at Alstom’s initiative. These
options can be exercised after a minimum period of 5 years, and subsequently at each coupon date or in the event of
specific circumstances. The annual yield is fixed and reviewable according to contractual clauses.

Alstom is not obligated to make any payments due to contractual clauses allowing it to defer interest payments
indefinitely. However, these clauses require any deferred payments to be made if dividends are distributed. These
characteristics give Alstom an unconditional right to avoid paying cash or any other financial asset for the principal or
interest. As a result, and in line with IAS 32, these securities are classified as equity instruments, and any payment
made is accounted for as a deduction of equity.

The transaction costs related to this issuance amount to €5 million, and have been recorded in equity, in accordance
with IAS32. On 29 August 2024, the Group paid a first coupon of €11 million.




NOTE 17. DISTRIBUTION OF DIVIDENDS

No dividends have been distributed during the period.

(****) “Translation adjustments and other” related to lease obligation is mainly due to the sale of a fleet trains that was partly leased back over the
period without any buy-back obligation.

€1,033 million in March 2024);

• The full repayment of the Revolving credit facility (from €175 million in March 2024).

NOTE 21. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The main categories of financial assets and financial liabilities of the Group and Financial Risk Management are
identical to those described in the consolidated financial statements at 31 March 2024.



Revolving Credit Facility
In addition to its available cash and cash equivalents, amounting to €1,789 million at 30 September 2024, the Group
benefits from strong liquidity with:

• €1.75 billion short term Revolving Credit Facility maturing in January 2027;

• €2.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility maturing in January 2029.

At 30 September 2024, both Revolving Credit Facility lines remained undrawn.

Alstom has successfully executed its deleverage plan resulting in the termination of a €2.25 billion credit facility
agreement as announced in Alstom FY 2023/24 annual results.

As per Group’s conservative liquidity policy, the €2.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility serves as a back-up of the Group
€2.5 billion NEU CP program in place.



Commercial obligations
Contractual obligations of the Group towards its customers may be guaranteed by bank bonds or insurance bonds.
Bank and insurance bonds may guarantee liabilities already recorded on the balance sheet as well as contingent
liabilities.

To issue these bonds, the Group relies on both uncommitted bilateral lines in numerous countries and a €12,7 billion
Committed Guarantee Facility Agreement (“CGFA”) with sixteen tier one banks allowing issuance until 22nd July 2025
of bonds with tenors up to 7 years. The CGFA has been further extended until 22 July 2026, with 15 banks for €12

52



billion. This bilateral line contains a change of control clause, which may result in the program being suspended, in the
obligation to procure new bonds to replace outstanding bonds or to provide cash collateral, as well as early
reimbursement of the other debts of the Group, as a result of their cross-default or cross-acceleration provisions.

At 30 September 2024, the total outstanding bonding guarantees related to contracts from continuing operations,
issued by banks or insurance companies, amounted to €29.35 billion (€28.6 billion at 31 March 2024).

The available amount under the Committed Guarantee Facility Agreement at 30 September 2024 amounts to €4.1
billion (€4.1 billion at 31 March 2024).




I. POST-EMPLOYMENT AND OTHER LONG-TERM DEFINED EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
NOTE 22. POST-EMPLOYMENT AND OTHER LONG-TERM DEFINED EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

The net liability on post-employment and on other long-term employee defined benefits is calculated using the latest
valuation at the previous financial year closing date. Adjustments of actuarial assumptions are performed on main
contributing areas (United Kingdom, Germany, France, Switzerland, Sweden, Canada, and the US) if significant
fluctuations or one-time events have occurred during the 6 months period. The fair value of main plan assets was
reviewed at 30 September 2024.




Discount rates for main geographic areas (weighted average rates)
(en %) At 30 September 2024 At 31 March 2024
United Kingdom 5.15 5.00
Euro Zone 3.45 3.28
North America 5.00 5.07
Other 2.03 2.36


Movements of the period


At 30 September 2024, the net provision for post-employment benefits amounts to €(707) million (made up of €252
million of prepaid assets and other employee benefit costs (see Note 14) and €(959) million accrued pension and other
employee benefit costs) compared with €(715) million at 31 March 2024 (made up of €231 million of prepaid assets
and other employee benefit costs (see Note 14) and €(946) million accrued pension and other employee benefit costs).


The variation of actuarial gains and losses arising from post-employment defined benefit plans recognised in the Other
comprehensive income amounts to €(10) million for the half-year ended 30 September 2024 mainly due to negative
unbalanced evolution between decrease of fair value of plan assets and positive evolution of discount rates by
geographic areas.


Other variations in the period ended 30 September 2024 mainly arose from service costs related to defined benefits
and projections estimated in actuarial valuations performed at 31 March 2024.

J. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND DISPUTES


NOTE 23. DISPUTES


23.1 Disputes in the Group’s ordinary course of business

The Group is engaged in several legal proceedings, mostly contract related disputes that have arisen in the ordinary
course of business.

These disputes, often involving claims for contract delays or additional work, are common in the areas in which the
Group operates, particularly for large long-term projects. The amounts in question, which can be substantial, are
claimed either from the Group alone or jointly with its consortium partners.

In some proceedings the amount claimed is not specified at the beginning of the proceedings. Amounts estimated in
respect of these litigations are taken into account in the estimate of margin at completion in case of contracts in
progress or included in provisions and other current liabilities in case of completed contracts when considered as reliable
estimates of probable liabilities. Actual costs incurred may exceed the amount of initial estimates because of a number
of factors including the inherent uncertainties of the outcome of litigation.




23.2 Disputes outside the Group’s ordinary course of business



Asbestos


Some of the Group’s subsidiaries are defendants in civil proceedings in relation to the use of asbestos, primarily in
France as well as in Spain, in the United Kingdom and in the United States of America. In France, these proceedings
are initiated by certain employees or former employees suffering from an occupational disease in relation to asbestos
with the aim of obtaining a court decision allowing them to obtain a supplementary compensation from the French
Social Security funds. In addition, employees and former employees of the Group not suffering from an asbestos related
occupational disease have started lawsuits before the French courts with the aim of obtaining compensation for
damages in relation to their alleged exposure to asbestos, including the specific anxiety damage.

While the outcome of the existing asbestos-related cases cannot be predicted with reasonable certainty, the Group
believes that these cases would not in the aggregate have any material adverse effect on its financial condition.




54





Alleged anti-competitive activities



Brazil


In July 2013, the Brazilian Competition Authority (“CADE”) raided a number of companies involved in transportation
activities in Brazil, including the subsidiaries of Alstom and Bombardier Transportation, following allegations of anti-
competitive practices. After a preliminary investigation stage, CADE notified in March 2014 the opening of an
administrative procedure against several companies, of which the Alstom’s and Bombardier Transportation’s
subsidiaries in Brazil, and certain current and former employees of the Group. CADE ruled in July 2019 a financial fine
of BRL 133 million (approximately €22 million) on Alstom’s subsidiary in Brazil as well as a ban to participate in public
procurement bids in Brazil conducted by the Federal, State, and Municipal Public Administration over a period of 5
years. In parallel, CADE applied a financial penalty of BRL 23 million (approximately €4 million ) on Bombardier
Transportation’s subsidiary in Brazil (there is no ban to participate in public procurement bids in Brazil).

In September and December 2020, both Alstom and Bombardier Transportation’s subsidiaries in Brazil filed a lawsuit
before the Brasilia civil court aiming at suspending and ultimately cancelling the July 2019 ruling. Both subsidiaries
obtained an injunction to suspend the effects of the administrative ruling until a final judgment is issued on the merits.
The public prosecutor of the State of Sao Paulo launched in May 2014 a civil action against the Group’s subsidiaries in
Brazil, along with a number of other companies, in connection with a transportation project. The total amount asserted
against all companies was BRL 2.5 billion (approximately €413 million), excluding interest and possible third-party
damages. In December 2014, the public prosecutor of the State of Sao Paulo also initiated a lawsuit against Alstom’s
subsidiaries in Brazil, along with a number of other companies (including Bombardier Transportation’s local subsidiary)
related to alleged anti-competitive practices regarding the first phase of a train maintenance project, and in the last
quarter of 2016, regarding a second phase of the said maintenance project.

The Group’s subsidiaries are actively defending themselves against these two actions.

In case of proven illicit practices, possible sanctions can include the cancellation of the relevant contracts, a ban to
participate in public procurement bids in Brazil, the payment of compensatory damages, the payment of punitive
damages and/or the forced dissolution of the Brazilian subsidiaries involved.



Italy


On 23 June 2020, a series of searches and arrests were carried out by the Milan police under instructions of the Milan
Prosecution Office as part of a preliminary investigation into alleged bribes and bid rigging in connection with public
tenders for Azienda Transporte Milanesi (“ATM”), the municipal public transportation company and operator of the
Milan Subway. The investigation concerned at least seven companies and 28 individuals, including two current
employees and two former employees of Alstom Ferroviaria S.p.A (the “Alstom Italy Employees”).

The Prosecution Office alleged that the Alstom Italy Employees engaged in bid-rigging under Article 353 of the Italian
Criminal Code, including colluding with an employee of ATM to obtain confidential technical information in order to
secure an undue advantage in the tender process for a 2019 contract for the Milan subway. Alstom did not ultimately
submit a bid in respect of this contract. Alstom Ferroviaria S.p.A was initially also subject to investigation regarding

55



alleged violation of Legislative Decree No. 231/2001 (“Decree 231/2001”) for not having implemented (or not having
efficiently applied) a system of control capable to avoid the commission by its employees of corruption. In connection
with its withdrawal of the bribery charges against the two employees in July 2022 (see below), the Public Prosecutor
issued a decree formally acquitting the Company from the charge of violating Decree 231/2001. Alstom conducted an
internal investigation into the allegations discussed above in coordination with external counsel and took certain interim
measures in response to the allegations of the Prosecution Office, in particular by suspending an employee of Alstom
Ferroviaria S.p.A (one of the two “former employees” referenced in this description).

In July 2022, the Prosecution Office (i) as noted above, withdrew the bribery charges against the individuals and hence
Alstom Ferroviaria S.p.A) and (ii) sought to indict the Alstom Italy Employees for bid rigging.

In November 2022, ATM and the Milan Municipality joined the proceedings as offended parties (“costituzione di parte
civile”). In 2023, the two former employees entered into a plea agreement (including a conviction). The wo current
employees continued their defense and moved to withdraw the bid rigging charges; their request is ending before the
court.



Spain


The Spanish Competition Authority (“CNMC”) opened a formal procedure end of August 2018 in connection with
alleged irregularities in public tenders with the Spanish Railway Infrastructures Administrator (“ADIF”) against eight
competing companies active in the Spanish signaling market including Bombardier European Investments, SLU (BEI)
and its parent company Bombardier Transportation (Global Holding) UK Limited, and Alstom Transporte SA and its
parent Alstom SA. The inclusion of the parent company is typical of European competition authorities at the early stage
of the proceedings. No Alstom or Bombardier managers were included in the file. In September 2020, the companies
obtained access to the Statement of Objections in which the CNMC discloses the evidence gathered against the various
participants in the alleged cartel in the Spanish signaling market.

Both Alstom and Bombardier have submitted their defense paper rejecting all of CNMC allegations on the basis of
absence of evidence.

The Sub-directorate of the CNMC submitted a Proposed Resolution end of March 2021 which both Alstom and
Bombardier rejected.

Both companies submitted their defense to the Council of the CNMC.

The Council of the CNMC ruled in September 2021 a financial fine of €22 million and €3.7 million on Alstom’s subsidiary
and Bombardier Transportation’s subsidiary in Spain respectively. The Council also ruled a ban to participate in public
procurement bids in Spain. The scope and duration of the ban to participate in public procurement both for Alstom’s
and Bombardier Transportation’s subsidiaries in Spain remain to be set by the State Public Procurement Advisory Board
(Junta Consultiva de Contratación Pública del Estado).

On 29 November and 7 December 2021 Alstom’s subsidiary and Bombardier Transportation’s subsidiary in Spain
respectively lodged an appeal against this ruling of the Council of the CNMC before the National High Court (“Audiencia
Nacional”). The Group believes that the grounds of appeal are solid. On 23 September 2022, Alstom’s subsidiaries in
Spain filed their respective statement of claim under the appeal proceedings which are ongoing.

In parallel to these appeals, Alstom’s and Bombardier Transportation’s subsidiaries in Spain have respectively requested
to the National High Court, as an interim measure, to suspend the implementation of the Council ruling regarding (i)


56



the payment of the financial fine and (ii) the prohibition to tender in public procurement bids in Spain. On the 1 and
on the 14 February 2022 respectively, the National High Court accepted both requests for interim measures and
granted such suspension.



Pending investigations which relate to Bombardier Transportation


The matters described in this section relate to historical conduct involving Bombardier Transportation that occurred
prior its acquisition by Alstom.

As part of the terms of the acquisition Bombardier Inc. (“BI”) agreed to indemnify Alstom for all losses incurred in
relation to a defined list and scope of compliance matters. The parties also agreed that BI would be entitled to conduct
and control the defense of any such compliance matters, which include the matters described below. Subsequent to
the acquisition Alstom conducted a review of Bombardier Transportation’s policies and procedures in relation to
“compliance” matters as well as specific contracts (the one discussed below and others) pre-identified as “high risk”
and took remedial actions.

Bombardier Transportation is the subject of an audit by the World Bank Integrity Vice Presidency and of several
investigations relating to allegations of corruption including by the Swedish Prosecution authority, the Special
Investigation Unit (“SIU”) and National Prosecuting Authority (“NPA”) in South Africa and the US Department of
Justice (“DOJ”).

These investigations or proceedings may result in criminal sanctions, including fines which may be significant, exclusion
of entities from tenders (e.g., “debarment” by the World Bank) and third-party actions. Alstom is cooperating with the
relevant authorities or institutions in respect of these matters, including by responding to information requests and
making presentations regarding post closing reviews and remediation measures, including pursuant to applicable DOJ
policies related to corporate acquisitions.

Swedish authorities, the World Bank and the DOJ are in particular investigating a 2013 contract for the supply of
equipment and services to Azerbaijan Railways in the amount of approximately $340 million (principally financed by
the World Bank) awarded to a bidding consortium composed of Bombardier Transportation’s Sweden’s subsidiary (BT
Sweden), a Russian Bombardier Transportation affiliate (with third party shareholders) and a third party (the “ADY
Contract”).

Ownership of the affiliate was subsequently transferred to an entity well established in the Russian and CIS market
with which BT Sweden had a historical relationship, and an affiliate of which had been added post-bid approval as a
project sub-contractor. There remains uncertainty as to the services provided by these entities in return for some of the
payments they received.




Sweden


The Swedish authorities commenced an investigation in relation to the ADY Contract in 2016, and in 2017 filed charges
against the former head of Sales, North Region, RCS, BT Sweden (the “Former BTS Employee”) for aggravated bribery
and, alternatively, influence trafficking. The authorities alleged that the Former BTS employee had contacts and


57



correspondence with a representative of the third-party member of the consortium who was also employed by
Azerbaijan railways during the bidding period with a view towards illicitly influencing the outcome of the tender.

After a trial the Former BTS Employee was acquitted on both counts in 2017. The authorities appealed the decision
and currently the aggravated bribery charge remains pending (although the defendant, a Russian national, is no longer
in-country).

Following an investigation the Swedish authorities filed charges of aggravated bribery and aiding and abetting against
another former BT Sweden employee. The employee was acquitted in December 2021; the acquittal was affirmed on
appeal in May 2023.



World Bank


The World Bank, via its Integrity Vice Presidency (“INT”), audited the ADY Contract and in 2018 the INT issued a
strictly confidential show cause letter which was leaked. The letter outlines INT’s position regarding alleged collusion,
corruption and fraud in the ADY Contract and obstruction of the INT’s investigation. The INT informed Alstom in 2023
that it remained within the scope of the proceeding which the INT had conveyed to the World Bank’s Sanctions Board;
Alstom subsequently made a presentation in November 2023 to the INT regarding the compliance integration of
Bombardier Transportation and its post-closing due diligence review. Pending further developments in the audit, it is
possible, notwithstanding Alstom’s post-acquisition cooperation with the investigation, that it could result in some
form of debarment of Bombardier Transportation (or its corporate successor) and/or BT Sweden from bidding on
contracts financed by the World Bank for a number of years.



U.S. Department of Justice – DOJ


The DOJ notified BI in February 2020 that it had opened an investigation. To Alstom’s knowledge the DOJ has been
making information requests since March 2020 to BI regarding the ADY Contract and had indicated that the scope of
its investigation could extend beyond the ADY Contract. Alstom has to date supported BI in responding to information
requests with respect to the ADY Contract, a Bombardier Transportation South Africa (“BTSA”) contract with Transnet
(cf. below “South-Africa” and “Project execution related litigation – South-Africa”) and a BTSA signaling contract with
the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa.



The contract signed in 2014 between BTSA and Transnet Freight Rail for the supply of 240 electric locomotives (the
“Transnet LSA”) is one of the numerous matters under investigation by the Special Investigation Unit in South Africa
(“SIU”) and the South African National Prosecuting Authority (“NPA”). The Transnet LSA was previously investigated
by the Zondo Commission, which recommended further investigation of certain aspects and individuals involved.

The Transnet LSA is also the subject of an ongoing commercial dispute and litigation. Following commercial
negotiations between Alstom and Transnet, the parties signed a settlement agreement in August 2023 to which the
SIU is a party (cf. below “Project execution-related litigation – South Africa”).




58





AMF



As part of its market monitoring function, in 2021/22 the AMF opened an investigation relating to Alstom’s financial
communication and trading in its shares, as well as any financial instrument linked to its shares, as from 1 January
2020. The investigation remains ongoing.



Project execution related litigation



CR-1 Marmaray railway infrastructure – Turkey


In March 2007, the Turkish Ministry of Transport (“DLH”) awarded the contract to upgrade approximately 75 km of
railway infrastructure in the Istanbul region, known as the “Marmaray Commuter Rail Project (CR-1)” to the
consortium Alstom Dogus Marubeni (“AMD”), of which Alstom Transport’s main French subsidiary is a member. This
project, which included works on the transcontinental railway tunnel under the Bosphorus, has undergone significant
delays mainly due to difficulties for the DLH to make the construction site available. Thus, the AMD consortium
terminated the contract in 2010. This termination was challenged by DLH, who thereafter called the bank guarantees
issued by the consortium up to an amount of approximately €80 million. Following injunctions, the payment of such
bank guarantees was forbidden, and the AMD consortium immediately initiated an arbitration procedure to resolve the
substantive issues. The arbitral tribunal has decided in December 2014 that the contract stands as terminated by virtue
of Turkish law and has authorized the parties to submit their claims for compensation of the damages arising from
such termination.

The set off of the various amounts awarded by the tribunal to both parties after more than ten years of proceedings
resulted in a net amount, after set-off, of €27.4 million payable by the AMD consortium to DLH. AMD partners paid
their respective proportionate share to the Ministry (Alstom share being €8.5 million) during the summer of 2021.
Bonds were released and the case is therefore closed subject to the process of release of counter-guarantees
respectively issued by AMD’s partners which is ongoing.

On the other hand, through arbitration request notified on 29 September 2015, Marubeni Corporation launched
proceedings against Alstom Transport SA taken as consortium leader in order to be compensated for the consequences
of the termination of the contract with DLH. The other AMD consortium member (Dogus) brought similar proceedings
in March 2016 and sought consolidation of the disputes between consortium members in a single case.

The Award was rendered as a majority decision, with a dissenting view. The present award of the majority orders
Alstom Transport SA to pay a total principal amount of €44.6 million to Marubeni and Dogus collectively, plus interest
on amounts due, and €1.1 million of legal costs. As of 31 March 2024, the total amount due and paid by Alstom under
the Award amounted to €63.1 million.

On 3 and 4 April 2024, Marubeni and Dogus raised applications for correction, interpretation and/or supplement of the
Award. The timeline and procedure for correction, interpretation and/or supplement is at the discretion of the Tribunal.
Alstom Transport SA believes that there are good grounds to reject these applications. In parallel to the correction
proceedings, on 19 April 2024, Alstom sought annulment of the Award (in its entirety or in part), by reference to the
Swiss Federal Tribunal. The timeline and procedure for annulment is at the discretion of the Swiss Federal Tribunal.

59





Saturno – Italy



Following a dispute within a consortium involving Alstom’s subsidiary in Italy and three other Italian companies, the
arbitral tribunal constituted to resolve the matter has rendered in August 2016 a decision against Alstom by awarding
€22 million of damage compensation to the other consortium members. Alstom’s subsidiary strongly contests this
decision and considers that it should be able to avoid its enforcement and thus prevent any damage compensation
payment. On 30 November 2016, Alstom’s subsidiary filed a motion in the Court of Appeals of Milan to obtain the
cancellation of the arbitral award. On 1 December 2016, Alstom’s subsidiary filed an ex parte motion for injunctive
relief to obtain the suspension of the arbitral award pending the outcome of the appeal proceedings, which was
temporarily accepted by the Court. After a phase of hearings in contradictory proceedings on the request for suspension
of the arbitral award, the Court of Appeal of Milan decided on 3 March 2017 in favor of Alstom’s subsidiary by
confirming definitively the suspension of this arbitration decision pending the outcome of the proceedings relating to
the cancellation of such decision. The Court of Appeal of Milan ruled on the merits in March 2019 in favour of the
Alstom’s subsidiary and cancelled the arbitration award of August 2016 including the €22 million of damage
compensation. The members of the consortium (excluding Alstom) appealed the decision of the Court of Appeal of
Milan on 19 October 2019.

On 11 December 2023 the Supreme Court issued its decision by: (i) rejecting all claims raised by the Consortium against
Alstom (ii) upholding Alstom’s arguments on the invalidity of the two Consortium’s resolutions that were to be adopted
at unanimity; and (iii) referring the case back to the Court of Appeal in Milan to rule on item ii) and on legal fees.

On 11 March 2024 the consortium filed a writ of summons in reinstatement before the Court of Appeal of Milan and
Alstom did the same. Alstom is asking the court that proceedings shall be limited to (i) the declaration of invalidity of
the consortium’s so-called First Resolution (consortium duration extended to December 2024) and second Resolution
(scope of the consortium expanded) in line with the decision of the Supreme Court; (ii) the liquidation of the legal costs
incurred in the entire proceedings (iii) the declaration of all claims brought by the consortium as “absorbed” by the
Supreme Court decision and therefore not to be adjudged in the reinstatement proceedings.

In May 2024 the consortium also filed a recourse to the Court of Cassation asking it to repeal its decision of December
2023. In June 2024 Alstom filed its counter-recourse to the Supreme Court.



Caltrain – United States


In 2008, the United States Congress enacted the Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (“RSIA”) which mandated the
implementation of positive train control systems (“PTC”) on, inter alia, any main lines over which intercity or commuter
rail passenger transportation is regularly provided. To comply with RSIA, the Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board
(“JPB”) solicited proposals to implement PTC for the commuter rail system that runs from San Francisco to San Jose,
California (“Caltrain”). Parsons Transportation Group (“Parsons”) was the successful bidder and entered into a contract
with JPB in December of 2011, and subsequently entered into a subcontract with GE Transportation Systems Global
Signaling, LLC (“GE Signaling”) wherein GE Signaling would provide onboard electronics, software and other
components and services related thereto. On 2 November 2015, Alstom Transportation acquired GE Signaling,
including the Caltrain project whereby Alstom Signaling Operations LLC (“Alstom”) became the contracting entity.



60



On 20 February 2017, JPB terminated Parsons for default based on the alleged significant delay in delivering the
contract. Upon receipt of JPB’s termination notice, Parsons suspended the performance of Alstom under the
subcontract (value $40.2 million (€37.3 million)). Shortly after the termination notice, Parsons filed a lawsuit against
JPB for wrongful termination in the Superior Court of California and JPB counterclaimed for breach of contract. In
December 2017, Alstom was added to the lawsuit by virtue of a crossclaim filed against it by Parsons. In response,
Alstom answered the cross-complaint and filed its own cross-complaint against Parsons.

Parsons and JPB subsequently settled their dispute and Parsons amended its Complaint against Alstom to incorporate
JPB’s claims, including allegations of negligence and negligent misrepresentation. The trial between Alstom and
Parsons began on 15 March 2022, but due to ongoing Covid-19 restrictions in the California Courts, and a temporary
assignment of the Judge, closing arguments did not occur until 15 June 2023. On 28 November 2023, the Court issued
a Proposed Statement of Decision (“PSOD”), which is a preliminary Decision. Objections to the PSOD were filed by
both Alstom and Parsons.

In July 2024, the Court confirmed its preliminary decision and issued its Final Statement of Decision and final Judgment
whereby Parsons is entitled to payment of $40.1 million (€36.8 million) from Alstom and JPB entitled to payment of
$62.5 million (€57.3 million) from Alstom. Alstom issued a bond to postpone the execution of the judgment.

In August 2024, Alstom filed a Motion for New Trial (a procedural motion to preserve matters for appeal) and Parsons
filed a Motion to Modify the Judgment to include prejudgment interest.

In September 2024, the Court decided not to go for a new trial and awarded prejudgment interest to Parsons in the
amount of $34 million.

On 1 October 2024, a Notice of Appeal has been filed by Alstom and Parsons filed a Notice of Cross Appeal on 21
October 2024. The formal appellate process has begun and the appellate briefing will start first quarter of 2025.



South-Africa


On 17 March 2014, Bombardier Transportation South Africa (“BTSA”) entered into an agreement to supply 240 electric
locomotives to Transnet (the “BTSA/Transnet LSA”). The BTSA/ Transnet LSA is part of Transnet’s 1,064 locomotive
project concluded between Transnet and four Original Equipment Manufacturers, including BTSA. On 9 March 2021,
Transnet and the SIU, alleging unlawfulness and irregularities in the procurement process and subsequent award of
the 1,064 locomotive project, launched review application proceedings in the High Court of South Africa for, amongst
other things, the review and setting aside of the respective. LSAs concluded with the four Original Equipment
Manufacturers including BTSA.The relief sought by Transnet as it relates to BTSA includes: (i) the review and setting
aside of the BTSA/Transnet LSA; (ii) that Transnet be entitled to retain the locomotives delivered by BTSA; and (iii) that
BTSA be ordered to make restitution to Transnet of the advance payments and profit and/or excess profit earned in the
supply of the locomotives.

Following commercial negotiations between Alstom and Transnet, the parties signed a settlement agreement in August
2023 to which the SIU is a party. The parties are in the process of implementing the settlement agreement, which has
required the independent verification of methodologies used to calculate certain commercial terms agreed in that
settlement agreement. On the conclusion of that verification process, the parties (Transnet, BTSA and the SIU), will
jointly approach the High Court of South Africa to: make the settlement agreement an Order of Court; confirm
Transnet’s retention of the locomotives supplied to it by BTSA in terms of the



61



Transnet LSA; and confirm that BTSA can continue to supply and deliver locomotives to Transnet in accordance with
the Transnet LSA. These matters are also a subject of an investigation by the DOJ and the NPA as referenced above. A
joint affidavit will be submitted to the court requesting its endorsement of the settlement agreement and related closure
of the set aside proceedings between the parties. Discussions are ongoing to finalize the content of the document.




Acquisition of Bombardier Transportation –Arbitration Proceedings



With respect to the acquisition of Bombardier Transportation (“BT”), completed on 29 January 2021, Alstom identified
various breaches by Bombardier Inc. (“BI”) of its obligations as Seller under the Memorandum of Understanding dated
17 February 2020 (amended and restated on 30 March 2020) and the Sale and Purchase Agreement dated 26
September 2020 (amended on 28 January 2021). On 15 April 2022, Alstom filed a request for arbitration against BI
with the International Chamber of Commerce (in accordance with the Parties’ agreements). Alstom’s claims against
BI concern breaches of the interim covenants in force prior to completion, breaches of warranty, and claims related to
the calculation of the final purchase price. Notably, Alstom contends that BI’s actions prior to completion wrongfully
increased the purchase price paid by Alstom and that BI’s breaches of various obligations caused further losses to
Alstom. On 24 June 2022, BI filed its answer to the request for arbitration, denying Alstom’s claims and advancing
counterclaims. As to the counterclaims specifically, BI alleges that Alstom attempted to minimize the price it would
have to pay to BI at completion in breach of contractual and non-contractual obligations, which is denied by Alstom.
The arbitral tribunal was constituted by the International Chamber of Commerce on 26 August 2022. In October 2022,
the tribunal established a procedural timetable. The phase of the arbitration involving the Parties’ written legal
submissions concluded in August 2024. The Parties are currently engaged in document production.

Following this, the Parties will exchange fact and expert witness evidence, before proceeding to a hearing on the merits.
The hearing is currently scheduled for late 2025.



Sale of Alstom’s Energy Businesses in November 2015



Finally, it shall be noted that, by taking over Alstom’s Energy Businesses in November 2015, General Electric undertook
to assume all risks and liabilities exclusively or predominantly associated with said businesses and in a symmetrical
way, Alstom undertook to keep all risks and liabilities associated with the non-transferred business. Cross-
indemnification for a duration of 30 years and asset reallocation (“wrong pocket”) mechanisms have been established
to ensure that, on the one hand, assets and liabilities associated with the Energy businesses being sold are indeed
transferred to General Electric and on the other hand, assets and liabilities not associated with such businesses are
borne by Alstom. As a result, the consequences of litigation matters that were ongoing at the time of the sale and
associated with these transferred activities are taken over by General Electric. Indemnity provisions protect Alstom in
case of third-party claims directed at Alstom and relating to the transferred activities. For this reason and since Alstom
no longer manages these litigation matters, Alstom is ceasing to include them in this section. There are no other
governmental, legal or arbitration proceedings that are pending or (to the Group’s knowledge) threatened, that could
have, or during the last twelve months have had, a significant impact on the financial situation or profitability of the
Group.

STATUTORY AUDITORS’ REVIEW REPORT ON THE INTERIM FINANCIAL
INFORMATION

(Period from 1 April 2024 to 30 September 2024)


This is a free translation into English of the Statutory Auditors’ review report on the interim financial information
issued in French and is provided solely for the convenience of English speaking users. This report includes
information relating to the specific verification of information given in the Group’s half-yearly management report.
This report should be read in conjunction with, and construed in accordance with, French law and professional
standards applicable in France.




To the Shareholders,
ALSTOM SA
48 rue Albert Dhalenne
93400 Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine
France


In compliance with the assignment entrusted to us by your Shareholder’s Meeting and in accordance
with the requirements of article L. 451-1-2 III of the French Monetary and Financial Code (Code
monétaire et financier), we hereby report to you on:

- the review of the accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements of
Alstom SA, for the period from 1 April 2024 to 30 September 2024;

- the verification of the information presented in the interim management report.


These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Board of
Directors. Our role is to express a conclusion on these financial statements based on our review.

I. Conclusion on the financial statements

We conducted our review in accordance with professional standards applicable in France.

A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible
for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is
substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with professional standards
applicable in France and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become
aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an
audit opinion.


Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying
condensed interim consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in

71



accordance with IAS 34, standard of the IFRSs as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim
financial information.



II. Specific verification

We have also verified the information presented in the interim management report on the condensed
interim consolidated financial statements subject to our review.

We have no matters to report as to its fair presentation and consistency with the condensed interim
consolidated financial statements.
