LU-VE Group Approach to ESG Topics “LU-VE is the embodiment of the principle that companies are women, men and ideas. Grey matter for a greener world has been our commitment right from the beginning. We have been the first in the sector to use “green” technology/solutions, LCC/LCA Life Cycle Costing/ Assessment, to maximize energy saving, minimize refrigerant charge, reduce noise level reduce footprint and weight.” Iginio Liberali, Founder of LU-VE Group The European Directive 2014/95/UE requires the preparation of a Consolidated Non-Financial Statement outlining the Group’s ESG commitments and results, in response to stakeholders ’ expectations addressed through a structured and ongoing engagement process. The integration of sustainability into the company strategy is supported by a top management ESG awareness project aimed at engaging all key players in defining and developing the Group’s sustainability strategy . European Commission introduced the Regulation 2020/852 - EU Taxonomy Regulation, a unified classification for economic activities considered environmentally sustainable. LU-VE Group identifies eligible activities with respect to the "Climate Change Mitigation" objective. LU-VE Group set up a corporate Sustainability Steering Committee , responsible to share the progress of the Group’s sustainability performance, to discuss strategic lines of action, and to define the new LU-VE Group Sustainability Plan. LU-VE Group implemented for the first year the actions defined in the LU-VE Group Sustainability Plan, achieving all the targets defined for 2023. LU-VE Group adopts the new European Sustainability Reporting Standard, as defined by CSRD – Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive. LU-VE Group integrates sustainability disclosure within the Integrated Annual Report , enhancing the transparency and quality of information. LU-VE Group has been updated the new 2026–2029 Sustainability Plan , which has been fully integrated into the Industrial Plan approved by the Board of Directors in February 2026. The Group participated for the second year in the 2025 disclosure of CDP - Carbon Disclosure Project -, and for the first time publicly disclosed its score of C, corresponding to the “Awareness ” level, in the Climate Change and Water Security categories.

60 In 2025, increase in turnover from sustainable products Over time, the refrigeration sector has identified increasingly sustainable natural refrigerants such as carbon dioxide (CO 2), ammonia (NH 3), propane (R290) and water (H2O), which are characterized by: - Zero or very low Global Warming Potential (GWP) values - Zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) values. - PFAS free. GWP is an indicator that quantifies the impact of a greenhouse gas on global warming. The ODP indicates the ability of a substance to damage the atmospheric ozone layer. PFAS are known as “forever chemicals” — substances that never break down, because they do not degrade in the environment or in the human body, accumulating over time and causing serious risks (cancer, hormonal and immune damage) to human health and the ecosystem. One of the targets of the Sustainability Plan is to increase turnover from products that use natural refrigerants and/or high energy-efficient motors, i.e. with a lower emission impact (with reference to the Scope 3 category 11 emissions of the GHG Protocol). The target includes: >56% revenues from sales of products using natural refrigerants and/or high energy-efficient motors by the end of 2025; >58% revenues from sales of products using natural refrigerants and/or high energy-efficient motors by the end of 2026. Fans with high-efficiency motors (electronic “EC” motors) represent one of the main innovations of recent years and mark an important step towards achieving ventilated heat exchangers with improved efficiency and minimal energy consumption for ventilation. At the end of 2025, the target of >56% was achieved, reaching 58%

Climate change mitigation targets Considering climate targets, LU-VE Group: A. Reduced its greenhouse gas emissions (Scope 1 and Scope 2 according to the Market-based methodology) by 36%, considering the 2022 baseline . Achievement of the target - defined through science-based methodology - was possible mainly through the use of electric energy from renewable sources certified through Guarantees of Origin or produced through on-site photovoltaic plants, as well as through energy efficiency initiatives. B. Pledged to establish a plan to reduce Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions by the end of 2026. In addition, for the second consecutive year, in the FY2025 Consolidated Sustainability Statement (Integrated Annual Report), the Group is reporting data on its Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions categories most relevant for LU-VE Group are related to clients' use of products (cat. 11 of GHG Protocol) and materials purchased (cat. 1 of GHG Protocol). As part of the 2026-2029 Industrial Plan , LU-VE Group has planned investments (CAPEX) with the aim of mitigating impacts from climate change mitigation and adaptation with a total value of ȶ10.3 million .

64 Climate Risks analysis for the Industrial Plan 2026-2029 •The various types of risk - market, technological, legal/policy and reputation - have been evaluated according to their potential impact on the business and the Group’s ability to cope with them over time. As an example, market risks related to increases in production and transport costs , due to specific market conditions and the introduction of new regulations (such as Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism at European level) have been assessed, as well as the demand for products with less emission impact also due to the tightening of regulations and directives aligned to climate policies, such as the F-Gas Regulation and Energy Performance Building Directive. PHYSICAL CLIMATE RISKS ANALYSIS TRANSITION CLIMATE RISKS - Analysis update •LU-VE Group already required a risk assessment for its production facilities in 2022. This analysis is considered up- to-date and also applicable for the financial year 2025 as it is based on IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) scenarios, categories of physical climate risks, calculation methodologies and time horizons still in line with the state of the art and the context in which the Group operates. •The different future scenarios were based on internationally recognized climate models based on greenhouse gas concentration pathways (Representative Concentration Pathways - RPC) developed by the IPCC with particular reference to the RCP 2.6 and RCP 4.5 scenarios . Considering the time frame, the simulations were performed with a horizon up to 2035. •The analysis showed that the risks that will have the greatest influence on the Group are temperature variability , intense precipitation and precipitation variability . Vice versa, the exposure to certain other risks, e.g. drought and fire risk, are not expected to be material to the Group’s operating assets.

65 Sustainability rating: transparent information for stakeholders In order to ensure transparency and share detailed information on sustainability topics with customers and investors, LU-VE underwent an EcoVadis assessment and responded to the CDP Climate Change and CDP Water Security questionnaires. CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) is a global non-profit organization that promotes the disclosure of environmental topics by companies, financial markets, cities, states and regions, with the aim of managing their impact. In 2025, LU-VE reached a score of C , corresponding to the “Awareness” level, in the Climate Change and Water Security categories. In July 2026, the LU-VE Group has received a new recognition from EcoVadis, achieving the Silver Medal for the first time. This result represents a significant step forward in its sustainability journey, following the three Bronze Medals received since 2021. EcoVadis medals and badges are awarded to companies that have completed the assessment process and proven that they have a robust management system in place to address the sustainability criteria defined by the rating methodology.
