Adel Al-Saleh, CEO of SES, commented: “H1 2025 delivered solid operational and financial performance. Through continued strategic
execution and solid commercial momentum, we have stabilised Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA and are firmly on track to meet our
reiterated FY25 financial outlook.




1) At constant FX (comparative figures restated to neutralise currency variations)

4) Excluding €284 million of restricted cash with respect to the SES-led consortium’s involvement in IRIS2
5) Financial Outlook is stated at constant FX, assuming nominal satellite health and launch schedule
6) Net of dividends received on treasury shares of €8 million
7) Represents initial cash consideration of $3.1bn (€2.8bn) net of agreed disbursements


1
The completion of the Intelsat acquisition on 17 July marked a defining milestone for SES, creating a stronger, truly global multi-orbit
operator built for the future. We are now uniquely positioned to compete with end-to-end solutions across high-growth segments. Backed
by a unified leadership team and clear strategic focus, we are delivering synergies from Day 1 and remain confident in achieving our
financial and operational objectives. The combined company offers enhanced scale, complementary capabilities, a stronger balance
sheet, and sustained growth in Adjusted FCF - driving long-term value for our customers and shareholders.

Our solid H1 2025 performance is underpinned by the strong growth in the Networks business, now c.60% of revenues. We continue to
see commercial traction across Government and Mobility. This underscores our strong positioning in high-value segments, driven by our
differentiated and scalable multi-orbit offering. In the first half, we secured €690 million in new business and renewals, reinforcing our
future growth trajectory. We have a robust pipeline of Government opportunities supported by increased defence spending in Europe,
including the development of a second satellite for GovSat jointly with the Luxembourg government, as well as strong momentum with the
US government, including the selection of SES Space & Defense to provide a hybrid space-based architecture to the U.S. Department of
Defense through a secure integrated multi-orbit network (SIMON™). In aero we are seeing increased traction with Open Orbits™ —
including partners’ wins with Thai Airways, Turkish Airline, and Uzbekistan Airways. Our Media business continues to deliver in-line with
expectations, underpinning SES’s stable and cash-generative foundation.

O3b mPOWER satellites 7 and 8 entered service in May and are already delivering advanced, high-performance connectivity to meet the
evolving needs of our customers. On 22 July, we successfully launched satellites 9 and 10 on an optimised launch schedule, with service
entry expected in early 2026 to further boost network capacity and resilience. The remaining satellites 11-13 are scheduled to launch in
2026. The additional O3b mPOWER satellites will bring up to a threefold increase in available capacity by 2027 when the entire O3b
mPOWER constellation is fully deployed, accelerating our profitable and long-term growth trajectory.

SES has also signed a transformative agreement with Impulse Space to use Helios, their medium-lift launcher to shorten the time required
for the selected SES’s satellites to reach their final orbital position, extending the lifetime of our satellites and accelerating service delivery
to our customers.

Together with Intelsat, SES is now better positioned to capture long-term growth in key segments and deliver sustainable value for
customers and shareholders alike.”

Key business and financial highlights (at constant FX unless explained otherwise)

SES regularly uses Alternative Performance Measures (APM) to present the performance of the Group and believes that these APMs are
relevant to enhance understanding of the financial performance and financial position.

“At constant FX” refers to comparative figures restated at the current period FX, to neutralise currency variations.


Networks revenue of €579 million (60% of total revenue) increased 10.3% yoy driven by growth in Government (+17.1% yoy) and Mobility
(+9.5% including periodic revenue of €19 million recognised in Q1 2025 vs €22 million in Q1 2024), offsetting lower Fixed Data (-4.0%
yoy). In H1 2025, the Networks business secured over €510 million of renewals and new business.

Media revenue of €398 million (40% of total revenue) reduced 12.1% yoy, on the back of lower revenue in mature markets due to capacity
optimisation and the impact of SD channel switch offs as well as the full Q2 impact of the Brazilian customer bankruptcy. In H1 2025, the
business secured more than €175 million of renewals and new business.

Adjusted EBITDA of €521 million represented an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 53% (H1 2024: 54%) including flow through of the periodic
revenue impact and some shifts in costs. Adjusted EBITDA excludes significant special items of €10 million income (H1 2024: €20 million
expenses), comprising of other income of €49 million (H1 2024: nil), net C-Band income of €1 million (H1 2024: €2 million) and expenses
related to other significant special items of €40 million, primarily related to merger and acquisition activities (H1 2024: €22 million).

Adjusted Net Profit of €77 million was lower than H1 2024 (€111 million), mainly reflecting year-on-year increased depreciation &
amortisation, higher net financing costs of €12 million (H1 2024: nil), higher net income tax expense, as well as slightly lower Adjusted
EBITDA. This was partly offset by higher net non-operating income. Net financing costs included the benefit of earned interest income on
the group’s cash & cash equivalents of €52 million (H1 2024: €62 million), net interest expense on external borrowings of €41 million
(2024: €45 million), loan fees and origination costs and other of €12 million (H1 2024: €12 million) and the impact of net foreign exchange
loss of €11 million (H1 2024: loss of €5 million).

Adjusted Net Profit excludes the significant special items highlighted above, as well as non-cash net impairment expense of €73 million
(H1 2024: €25 million), M&A related net financing charges of €23 million (H1 2024: nil) and net tax benefit of €23 million (H1 2024: benefit
of €7 million) associated with all the significant special items.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow (excluding significant special items) of €193 million was €47 million higher year-on-year, or 32.0% year-on-year
including lower year-on-year cash tax payments of €21 million (H1 2024: €66 million), changes in working capital and lower interest and
coupon paid of €64 million (H1 2024: €97 million). These items were partly offset by higher year-on-year capex of €248 million (H1 2024:
€200 million) and other investing activities of €20 million (H1 2024: nil), lower interest received of €57 million (H1 2024: €61 million).

On 30 June 2025, Adjusted Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio (treating 50% of €1.524 billion of hybrid bonds as debt and 50% as equity)
was 1.1 times (30 June 2024: 1.7 times). Cash & cash equivalents of €4.3 billion (excluding €284 million of restricted cash with respect to
the SES-led consortium’s involvement in IRIS2) included the proceeds from the €1 billion Eurobonds issued in June 2025 and the €300m
EIB financing.

SES is continuing to engage with insurers regarding the insurance claim relating to O3b mPOWER satellites 1-4. SES has finalised
settlements with a small number of insurers, resulting in initial settlement payments of c.$58 million collected with further settlements
expected to follow.

Gross backlog on 30 June 2025 was €4.2 billion (H1 2024: €4.7 billion) of which Media backlog was €1.9 billion and Networks backlog
was €2.3 billion.

The final FY2024 dividend of €103 million equal to €0.25 per A-share and €0.10 per B-share was paid to shareholders on 17 April 2025.
In October 2025, SES will pay an interim dividend of €0.25 per A-share (€0.10 per B-share) to shareholders, followed by a final dividend
(subject to shareholder approval) of at least €0.25 per A-share (€0.10 per B-share) in April 2026.

SES reaffirms its FY 2025 outlook (assuming nominal satellite health and launch schedule): FY 2025 Group Revenue is expected to be
stable compared with 2024 (at constant FX) and Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be broadly stable year-on-year (at constant FX) on the
better-than-expected 2024 outturn. Capital expenditure (net cash absorbed by investing activities excluding acquisitions and financial
investments) is expected to be in the range of €425-475 million in 2025, followed by an average annual capital expenditure of
approximately €325 million for 2026-2029.

In addition, SES’s expected capital expenditure relating to IRIS2 of up to €1.8 billion will start ramping mostly from 2027 and will translate
into an average annual spend of around €400 million over 2027-2030 (subject to a rendezvous point at the end of 2025 to validate the
project cost, technical requirements, and delivery timetable, whereby any party can exit in the event of excess expected cost, not meeting
technical requirements, and/or delays to the in-service date).

The acquisition of Intelsat closed on 17 July 2025, following the receipt of required regulatory clearances. All previously communicated
financial objectives for the combined company are reaffirmed (pre-IRIS2). As previously announced, SES expects the proposed acquisition
to have a positive impact on free cash flow, increasing the Company’s financial flexibility. In terms of capital allocation, SES remains
committed to investment grade metrics, profitable investments, and a stable to progressive dividend. As SES meets its net leverage target
(Adjusted Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA) of below 3 times within 12-18 months after closing the Intelsat transaction, the company intends
to increase the annual base dividend and at least a majority of future exceptional cashflows of the combined company will be prioritised
for shareholder returns.


SES secured financing for the Intelsat acquisition through a €3 billion Bridge Facility signed on 30 April 2024 which was subsequently fully
syndicated in June 2024 including a USD 1 billion Term Loan Agreement (“TLA”). SES subsequently raised €1 billion in hybrid financing
on 12 September 2024 and €1 billion in Senior Notes under the EMTN programme on 24 June 2025. These transactions enabled a
progressive reduction of the Bridge Facility, which was ultimately fully cancelled by the end of June 2025.

On 17 July 2025 SES redeemed $3 billion of the 6.500% First Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2030 issued by Intelsat Jackson Holdings
S.A..

ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES

SES regularly uses Alternative Performance Measures (‘APM’) to present the performance of the Group and believes that these APMs
are relevant to enhance understanding of the financial performance and financial position. These measures may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measurements under IFRS or any other body of generally accepted
accounting principles and thus should not be considered substitutes for the information contained in the Group’s financial statements.


Alternative Performance Measure Definition
Reported EBITDA and EBITDA margin EBITDA is profit for the period before depreciation, amortisation, impairment, net financing
cost, other non-operating income / expense (net) and income tax. EBITDA margin is
EBITDA divided by the sum of revenue and other income including U.S. C-band
repurposing income.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin EBITDA adjusted to exclude significant special items of a non-recurring nature. The
primary such items are the net impact of U.S. C-band spectrum repurposing, other
income, restructuring charges, costs associated with the development and/or
implementation of merger and acquisition activities (“M&A”), specific business taxes and
one-off regulatory charges arising outside ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA margin is
Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow Net cash generated by operating activities less net cash absorbed by investing activities,
interest paid on borrowings, coupon paid on perpetual bond and lease payments, and
adjusted to exclude the net cash flow impact of significant special items of a non-recurring
nature, primarily U.S. C-band spectrum repurposing, other income, restructuring charges,
M&A (including net financing income / costs), specific business taxes and one-off
regulatory charges arising outside ongoing operations.
Adjusted Net Debt Adjusted Net Debt is defined as current and non-current borrowings less cash and cash
equivalents (excluding amounts subject to contractual restrictions) and excluding 50% of
the Hybrid Bond (classified as borrowings) and including 50% of the Perpetual Bond
(classified as equity). The treatment of the Hybrid Bond and Perpetual Bond is consistent
with rating agency methodology.
Adjusted Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA The Adjusted Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is defined as Adjusted Net Debt divided

Forward looking statements
This press release contains, and our officers and representatives may make, certain “forward-looking statements” as defined in the U.S.
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,”
“expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “forecast,” “likely,” “believe,” “target,” “will,” and similar expressions or their negative. Examples of
forward-looking statements include, among others, statements we make regarding our 2025 outlook, liquidity, revenue, gross margin,
operating margin, effective tax rate, foreign currency exchange movements, earnings per share, our plans and decisions relating to various
capital expenditures, capital allocation priorities and other discretionary items such as our market growth assumptions, and generally, our
expectations concerning our future performance.
Forward-looking statements are not assurances of future performance and are subject to uncertainties and risks that are difficult to predict
such as: the company’s ability to achieve the synergies expected from the acquisition of Intelsat, as well as risks, delays, challenges and
expenses associated with integration; delays or failures in satellite launches, deployments, or operations, including technical malfunctions
or satellite lifespan limitations; regulatory challenges, including the company or its customers failing to obtain and maintain required
regulatory approvals and regulatory changes in countries in which it provides service; competitive pressures in the telecommunications
industry, including shifts in demand for satellite, terrestrial networks and alternate distribution technologies; the company’s dependence
upon several large customers; changes in technology or the satellite communications market that could make the company’s satellite
telecommunications system obsolete or subject to lower or reduced demand; global economic turmoil, trade wars and tariffs; liquidity,
currency and foreign exchange and counterparty risks; potential cyber-attacks against, or breaches to, the company’s information
technology systems; the impact of overall industry and general economic conditions, including uncertainty around the macroeconomy,
inflation, interest rates and related monetary policy in response to inflation; tax regulations; and the company’s level of indebtedness.
Other factors that might cause actual results to differ include those discussed in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission, including our Form F-4. Should one or more of these uncertainties or risks materialize, or should underlying assumptions
prove incorrect, actual results may vary from those anticipated, and therefore you should not rely on any of these forward-looking
statements. The forward-looking statements included in this press release are made only as of the date hereof and, we undertake no
obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
