Olivier Ginon, Chairman-CEO of GL events Group, commented:

“GL events demonstrated solid momentum in the third quarter of 2025, boosted by growth in Brazil
and Chile and a strong performance in France. This positive trend highlights our continuing
commitment to strengthening our international presence and seizing growth opportunities in key
regions. At the same time, as expected, we are experiencing a significant base effect (from the Paris
Olympics, which generated €115m in revenue in Q3 2024) and currency effects (-€21m). At constant
exchange rates, the level of activity remains comparable to the nine-month period ended 30 September
2024, at €1.2bn, of which 51% originated from international markets. In addition, mega-events will
have a more significant impact in Q4 2025. The execution of our development plan remains on track
and our teams are committed to delivering high-quality services that meet our customers'
expectations.

The success of the first events organised at the Stade de France, and notably the AC/DC concerts,
demonstrates our ability to successfully manage iconic venues with international reach, where each
event showcases our expertise to the world. While rapidly taking control of the infrastructure was an
enormous challenge, once again our teams successfully rose to the occasion I am proud that our
operational excellence has been once again validated by these achievements further reinforcing the
trust of our partners around the world.

We confirm our 2025 targets with a trajectory of sustainable and well managed growth, supported by
a healthy pipeline and rigorous discipline, despite an unstable geopolitical environment.”

GL EVENTS LIVE had revenue of €172.9m in Q3 2025, compared with €250.2m in Q3 2024, a change
explained by a base effect from the Paris 2024 Olympic Games which for the division generated
€100m in revenue. Despite this challenging context, the division has demonstrated its ability to adapt
through impressive achievements that illustrate the wide range of its expertise. In France, highlights
included the French 14th of July Bastille Day ceremonies, the Cannes Yacht Festival and the Maison et
Objet exhibition. Internationally, GL events is consolidating its global presence with a number of high-
profile projects: the Silverstone Grand Prix and the 6 Hours of São Paulo, the 2025 Club World Cup at
the Cincinnati Football Club, the new grandstands at Aston Villa's stadium and the Monaco Yacht
Show. This international momentum continues with the Osaka World Expo and the first performances
for the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Games.

At 30 September 2025, the division posted total revenue of €631.7m, down 15% like-for-like
compared with 30 September 2024.

GL EVENTS EXHIBITIONS generated revenue of €22.5m in Q3 2025, driven by a rich and diverse line-up
of events that testifies to the vitality of its markets. The quarter was marked by noteworthy successes,
including the Joint Congress of Visceral and Digestive Surgery in France and the Shoulder and Elbow
Surgery Congress in the Netherlands, which highlight the growing importance of specialised medical
conferences in GL events' portfolio. The division also benefited from the success of Première Vision in
France, which confirmed its leadership position in the fashion industry, and Première Vision New York,
which confirmed its presence in the American market. This momentum also remained on track in
international markets thanks to strategic events such as the Estetika trade show in Brazil, SIRHA Arabia
in Riyadh and Tranoï Tokyo Autumn.

At 30 September 2025, the division reported revenue of €194.3m, up 40% (+37% at constant exchange
rates) compared with the same period in 2024, confirming the division's trajectory of sustained
growth.

GL EVENTS VENUES had revenue of €92.8m in Q3 2025, attesting to the adaptability of its business
model. This performance is based on a balanced mix of events that capitalises on the wide range of
venues available: in France, AC/DC concerts confirm the appeal of hosting major live productions in
exceptional venues, the Rose Festival in Toulouse has established itself as a leading cultural event, the
Marseille International Fair maintains its strong regional roots, and the Lyon Motor Show is
strengthening its presence in the automotive market. The division's international expansion is
reflected in a range of projects, such as the Netflix television production at Lingotto, which opens up
its activity to the audiovisual industry, the Expert XP event at São Paulo Expo, which strengthens its
foothold in South America, and the Omek trade fair, which cultivates niche areas of expertise.
