We are actively preparing our next growth drivers, with several new product launches on the horizon.” The Board of Directors of Vetoquinol SA, meeting on September 9, 2026, approved the financial statements for the first half of fiscal year 2026. The limited review report on the financial statements as of June 30, 2026, was issued by the statutory auditors. In a still-uncertain international environment, Vetoquinol returned to growth in the first half of 2026, with sales up +3.4% at constant exchange rates and +0.7% on a reported basis. In the first half of the year, the Group recorded an unfavorable foreign exchange impact of -€7.1 million.

Lure September 10, 2026 VETOQUINOL Magny-Vernois 70200 Lure, France www.vetoquinol.com 2/6 Sales increased across all animal species; sales of companion animals products grew by 4.1% at constant exchange rates to €188 million, accounting for 72.6% of the company’s total sales. Sales of products for farm animals totaled €71 million, representing 27.4% of sales, up +1.9% at constant exchange rates. Beyond the still -moderate reported growth (+0.7%), the first half of 2026 confirms the strong momentum of the business and the solidity of the Group’s main growth drivers: the Essentials segment and the United States. The gross margin stood at 77.1%, up from H1 2025 (75.8%). This increase is attributable to the product mix , particularly the continued growth of Essentials products as a share of total sales, as well as a rise in selling prices of more than 2.5%. These factors more than offset the increase in external expenses, driven primarily by expenses related to the industrial plan and R&D activities, while marketing and logistics expenses remained under control. R&D expenses accounted for 8.7% of sales as of June 30, 2026, compared with 7.8% at the end of June 2025, illustrating the Group’s focus on innovation and preparing for its future growth.

This increase reflects higher payroll costs (€2.7 million), a favorable currency effect (€1.6 million), and net changes in headcount (€2.4 million). The Group’s workforce totaled 2,526 employees as of June 30, 2026, compared to 2,501 as of December 31, 2025. Depreciation and amortization charges related to the application of IFRS 16 resulted in a depreciation and amortization expense of -€3.1 million for the period, unchanged from the period ending June 2025. EBIT before amortization of intangible assets from acquisitions amounted to €44.8 million at June 30, 2026, an increase of +7.2%.

The tax expense for H1 2026 amounted to -€12.6 million (vs. -€10.8 million in H1 2025). The apparent tax rate stood at 30.2% , unchanged from the end of June 2025.
