Year-on-year increase was 50.3%. ● Operating profit (EBIT) amounted to EUR 7.9 million (EUR 6.7 million) or 9.7% of revenue (13.0%). Year-on-year increase was 17.1%. ● Net profit was EUR 6.9 million (EUR 4.3 million). Year-on-year increase was 61.8%, impacted positively by a reassessment of the acquisition related earn-out. ● Earnings per share were EUR 0.23 (EUR 0.14). Year-on-year increase was 61.9%. January–September 2026 highlights ● Revenue amounted to EUR 210.9 million (1–9/2025: EUR 159.3 million). Year-on-year increase was 32.4%. Growth was driven by the acquisition of Lacon Group and the increasing demand from the defence customers. ● Revenue increased organically 4.6%, impacted positively by both existing and new customer projects and negatively by foreign exchange rates. ● Comparable EBITA amounted to EUR 20.3 million (EUR 18.1 million) or 9.6% of revenue (11.4%). Year-on-year increase was 12.4%. ● Operating profit (EBIT) remained on previous year’s level and amounted to EUR 18.4 million (EUR 18.4 million) or 8.7% of revenue (11.5%). Last year, EBIT was positively impacted by one-off insurance proceedings, personnel-related accrual reversal, and lower purchase price allocation amortisation. ● Net profit was EUR 13.6 million (EUR 8.9 million). Year-on-year increase was 52.8%, impacted positively by a reassessment of the acquisition related earn-out, decreased foreign exchange losses in financial expenses and a decrease of internal dividend related withholding tax. ● Earnings per share were EUR 0.46 (EUR 0.30). Year-on-year increase was 53.1%. The consolidation of the Lacon Group following the acquisition on 20 February 2026 contributed to the more significant movements in the balances compared to 2025.

5 CEO’s comments I would like to thank our employees for their hard work and commitment during the quarter, as well as our customers, shareholders and other stakeholders for their continued trust and support. The third quarter was a strong quarter for Incap, with revenue reaching an all-time high of EUR 80.7 million (EUR 51.8 million). Growth was driven by the acquisition of Lacon Group and the increasing demand of the defence customers. Revenue grew by 18% organically, driven by contributions from both existing and new customers, reflecting the strength of our sales teams and customer relationships. Comparable EBITA reached EUR 8.6 million, increasing both year-on-year and quarter-on- quarter due to higher volumes. As a percentage of revenue, the comparable EBITA was 10.7% (11.1%). It is encouraging to see profitability at this level. Earnings per share improved to EUR 0.23 (EUR 0.14). The development was supported by our strong financial performance during the quarter and a positive impact from certain financial items. Furthermore, the continued share buyback program contributed slightly to the increase in the earnings per share. Market conditions continued to vary across regions and customer segments. We remain focused on expanding our sales pipeline and see good customer activity and opportunities across the group, particularly in areas such as industrial automation, data centre-related power applications, as well as defence. The competitive environment in India remains intense, with continued pressure on pricing. Our largest customer is diversifying its supplier base, which we expect will put pressure on our volumes going forward. At the same time, new large customer accounts in India, particularly within data center applications, are being ramped up. This is expected to balance the impact. Component and printed circuit board (PCB) availability remained challenging during the quarter. Thanks to the efforts of our teams and close cooperation with customers and suppliers, we were able to manage the situation and continue supporting our customers. At the same time, higher production volumes increased net working capital, which impacted cash flow from operating activities. Looking ahead, our strong order intake has continued, supporting our expectations for a strong fourth quarter. We continue to focus on profitable organic growth, disciplined execution, and creating shareholder value. We look forward to presenting our updated strategy at the Capital Markets Day on 17 November. The strategy builds on the strengths of our business, Incap’s increased scale and provides the framework for our continued growth and value creation. Otto Pukk, President and CEO of Incap Corporation
