Standard & Poor’s lowers the Group’s long-term credit rating
to BBB with a stable outlook

S&P Global announced today that it has lowered Icade’s long-term credit rating from BBB+ with
a negative outlook to BBB with a stable outlook due to pressure on the Group’s activities and the
adjusted timeframe for completing the sale of its Healthcare business. Icade’s short-term rating
remains unchanged at A-2.

As a result, S&P Global has revised Icade’s financial ratio thresholds for a BBB rating and set the
following targets:
• a net debt-to-capital ratio toward 50% (vs. below 40% previously);
• a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio below 11x (vs. below 8.5x previously);
• an ICR toward 2.4x (vs. above 3.8x previously).

Icade acknowledges this decision and reaffirms its commitment to maintaining a rigorous and
prudent financial policy which is one of the pillars of ReShapE, its 2024–2028 Strategic Plan.
Excluding NEU Commercial Paper, the Group maintained a solid level of liquidity of €2.4bn as of
June 30, 2024, covering debt payments up to 2028.
