Interim Report Third Quarter 2026 2 ( 16 ) CEO COMMENT Q3: Aftermarket and VIP deliveries strengthened, offset by pushed OEM deliveries Strong spare parts performance continued in the quarter. Aftermarket revenue increased both sequentially and year-on-year. Deliveries of several VIP systems supported a sequential recovery in Private jet, although revenue remained well below Q3 2025. OEM revenue declined sequentially as deliveries shifted from Q3 to Q4, reducing Q3 revenue by approximately MSEK 6, with a corresponding positive impact expected in Q4. Currency-adjusted net sales decreased by just under 2% sequentially, in line with the previous outlook. Reported net sales amounted to MSEK 76 (74), while EBIT increased by 24% year-on-year to MSEK 23. Q4: Revenue expected to exceed Q3 - supported by OEM deliveries pushed from Q3 Revenue in Q4 is expected to exceed Q3 (in USD), driven by OEM, including deliveries rescheduled from Q3. Private jet revenue is expected to be limited, with no revenue from Retrofit. 2026: Full-year outlook raised on strong Aftermarket performance The full-year outlook is raised following stronger-than- expected Aftermarket performance. Growth rates below are measured in USD against 2025: • OEM: Revenue growth for full-year 2026 is expected at 45–50%, compared with the previous outlook of 45–60%. Revenue in second half is expected to be in line with or marginally below the first half. Boeing is currently working to stabilize its supply chain to increase monthly 787 production from 8 to 10 aircraft, while Airbus targets 12 A350 aircraft per month during 2028. CTT has operated at levels corresponding to monthly production rates of 9–10 Boeing 787s and 7–8 A350s. The A350 programme is expected to drive CTT’s delivery volumes over the next 6–9 months. Higher humidifier content per aircraft is expected to drive volume growth above the aircraft production rate. • Aftermarket: The full-year revenue outlook is raised to 20–25% from 5–15%. This growth rate is not sustainable and mainly reflects weak comparatives following distributor inventory reductions and weak spare parts demand in 2025. • Private jet: The outlook is repeated, 2026 will be the weakest year in several years due to VIP project delays. Airbus Corporate Jets and Boeing Business Jets include CTT’s system in several VIP aircraft scheduled for next year. The first of these projects are one BBJ 737 MAX system for delivery in Q1 2027 and one ACJ320 kit for delivery in Q2 2027. Retrofit: Full-year revenue in USD is expected to remain in line with 2025, with no deliveries in Q4. OEM developments in Q3 strengthen growth prospects Several OEM-related developments and milestones occurred during the quarter. The most significant for CTT is the ongoing certification of the Boeing 777-9 (the first model in the 777X program), where certification flight testing continued alongside flight testing of the first aircraft scheduled for delivery to airline customers. Another milestone was the A350F programme, where Airbus completed the aircraft’s first flight test. Both Airbus and Boeing are planning initial customer deliveries during 2027. For CTT, these developments mean that the Company’s products will soon be in service across all modern long-haul aircraft platforms and that airline customers will be able to commence operations with cabin humidification on an additional aircraft type. The A350F also opens a new segment within the freighter market. In parallel, several airlines are expecting their first delivery of A350 aircraft equipped with cabin humidification. As airlines begin operating A350 and Boeing 777-9 aircraft with cabin humidification, the rationale for including the system when upgrading their existing long-haul fleets becomes stronger. Together, gradually increasing aircraft production rates, higher penetration per aircraft and additional OEM platforms are building a growing installed base and strengthening the long-term potential in Retrofit and the Aftermarket.

Interim Report Third Quarter 2026 4 ( 16 ) NET SALES Net sales increased by 3% during the third quarter to MSEK 76.4 (73.8). In comparable currencies, net sales increased by 5%1, primarily driven by higher aftermarket revenues, partly offset by lower revenues within the Private Jet area. OEM sales increased to MSEK 12.4 (11.9). Deliveries to the A350 program increased slightly but were offset by temporarily lower deliveries to the Boeing 787 program compared with the previous year. Deliveries for the Boeing 787 corresponding to approximately MSEK 6 have been deferred to Q4 2026. Revenue within the Private Jet area decreased to MSEK 5.9 (13.2), where Q3 previous year represented a particularly strong comparison quarter. Aftermarket revenue was higher than in Q3 of the previous year and amounted to MSEK 54.8 (43.6), mainly due to Q3 2025 being a weak comparison quarter as a result of significant negative inventory effects in the distribution channel. No Retrofit deliveries were made during the quarter (2.5). Accumulated, for the period January – September, net sales increased with 5% to MSEK 218.4 (207.6). Adjusted for currency, sales increased by 9%. Revenue increased primarily due to higher deliveries within the OEM and aftermarket areas, partly offset by lower revenue in the Private Jet business. Rolling four quarters, the revenues amounted to MSEK 68.8 on average per quarter or MSEK 275 in yearly pace. The graph above shows quarterly net sales and rolling four quarters average. ______________________________________________ 1 The average USD currency rate in the second quarter was 9.65 (9.52). 76

Interim Report Third Quarter 2026 6 ( 16 ) FINANCIAL RESULTS The operating profit (EBIT) in the third quarter increased to MSEK 23.1 (18.6), corresponding to a margin of 30% (25). The improvement in earnings compared with the third quarter of the previous year was primarily driven by positive currency effects, a more favourable revenue mix, and increased deliveries. Earnings benefited from currency effects of MSEK 1 on net sales and MSEK 1 from the revaluation of accounts receivable and accounts payable, resulting in a total positive currency impact of MSEK 2 compared with the previous year. The cost-saving measures initiated earlier had their full effect during the quarter. Net financial items amounted to MSEK -1.3 (-0.4) and were negatively impacted by currency effects from loans taken in USD with -1.2 (+0.4). The profit margin amounted to 16% (23). Net profit after tax was MSEK 17.3 (14.4) and earnings per share amounted to SEK 1.38 (1.15). Accumulated, for the period January – September, EBIT increased to MSEK 47.1 (40.5), corresponding to a margin of 22% (20). The improvement in earnings compared with the previous year was primarily driven by higher volumes in the OEM and aftermarket areas. Net profit after tax was MSEK 33.8 (33.0) and earnings per share increased to SEK 2.70 (2.63). The earnings trend since Q2 2025 is presented to the right, where the green line shows the EBIT margin adjusted for currency effects directly linked to accounts receivable and accounts payable valuation.

Interim Report Third Quarter 2026 7 ( 16 ) ORDER INTAKE AND ORDER BACKLOG During the third quarter, the Company’s order intake increased to MSEK 128 (48), primarily driven by stronger order intake in the aftermarket area, but also by higher order intake within OEM and Private Jet . Accumulated, for the period January – September, order intake decreased to MSEK 264 (318), primarily explained by a large Retrofit order from Jet2.com recognized in Q1 2025, which is scheduled for delivery over the coming years. As of 30 September 2026, the order book totaled MSEK 182 (129), based on USD exchange rate of 9.98 (9.42), at the end of the quarter. An increase in future order intake from system sales is expected to result in a larger order backlog, as system sales generally have longer lead times than aftermarket sales. CASH FLOW AND FINANCIAL POSITION Cash flow before changes in working capital increased to MSEK 21.6 (17.1) in the third quarter, primarily impacted by increased EBITDA (MSEK 25.0 compared to 20.1). Cash flow from operating activities decreased to MSEK 19.5 (33.1). Changes in working capital totaled MSEK -2.1 (+16.0), where operating liabilities increased by MSEK 2.3 (-2.8), but was offset by an increase in operating receivables of MSEK 7.1 (-12.6) Inventory decreased by MSEK 2.7 (6.1) during the period. Net cash flow for the reporting period amounted to MSEK 14.5 (32.8). Accumulated, for the period January – September, cash flow before changes in working capital amounted to MSEK 40.9 (31.8). The cash flow from operating activities decreased to MSEK 34.8 (40.8), mainly driven by an increase in accounts receivable. Overall, CTT has a strong financial position, with its equity ratio at 30 September 2026 amounting to 72% (73). Cash and cash equivalents amounted to MSEK 27 (35), and in addition CTT has available credit facilities of MSEK 48. Net debt as of 30 September 2026 amounted to MSEK 20 (2), and equity to MSEK 266 (256). INVESTMENTS Investments in the third quarter amounted to MSEK 4.7 (0.0), and during the period January - September to MSEK 13.2 (2.6). During the quarter, CTT invested MSEK 3.2 in the expansion of the facility in Nybro, accumulated MSEK 7.3. PERSONNEL The average number of employees during the third quarter was 86 (85). Accumulated, for the period January – September, the corresponding number was 83 (85). 27

Interim Report Third Quarter 2026 8 ( 16 ) RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES CTT is exposed to several risks that could significantly impact the Company’s operations, earnings and financial position. The Company’s risks are divided into strategic, operational and financial risks. One of these risks is currency. CTT is extremely dependent on the exchange rate of USD to SEK, as most of its revenues are in USD (as business in the aviation industry is priced in USD). CTT has a large proportion of costs in non -USD currencies, mainly SEK. A weakening in USD/SEK-rate has an adverse effect on earnings. For a more detailed description of this particular risk and others, refer to the Risk and Risk Management section on pages 70 - 75 of the Company’s Annual Report 2025. No significant changes in material risks or uncertainties have arisen during the period. SHAREHOLDERS For information about the Company’s 20 largest shareholders, please refer to the company’s website www.ctt.se.
