Independent auditor’s report
To the Shareholders of AUTOHELLAS TOURIST AND TRADING SOCIÉTÉ ANONYME
Report on the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements
Our opinion
We have audited the separate and consolidated financial statements of AUTOHELLAS TOURIST AND
TRADING SOCIÉTÉ ANONYME (Company or/and Group) which comprise the separate and
consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2025, the separate and consolidated
statements of profit or loss, other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flow statements
for the year then ended, and notes to the separate and consolidated financial statements, comprising
material accounting policy information.
In our opinion, the separate and consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects the separate and consolidated financial position of the Company and the Group as at
December 31, 2025, their separate and consolidated financial performance and their separate and
consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards, as adopted by the European Union and comply with the statutory requirements of Law
4548/2018.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs), as they have
been transposed into Greek Law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in
the “Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements”
section of our report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion.
Independence
We are independent of the Company and the Group in accordance with the Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants issued by the International Ethics Standards Boards of Accountants (IESBA
Code) and the ethical requirements of Law 4449/2017 and of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014, that are
relevant to the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements in Greece. We have fulfilled
our ethical responsibilities in accordance with the requirements of the IESBA Code, the Law
4449/2017 and the Regulation (EU) No 537/2014.
We declare that the non-audit services that we have provided to the Company and its subsidiaries are
in accordance with the aforementioned provisions of the applicable law and that we have not provided
non-audit services that are prohibited under Article 5 par. (1) of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014.
The non-audit services that we have provided to the Company and its subsidiaries, during the year
ended as at December 31, 2025, are disclosed in the note 43 of the separate and consolidated
financial statements.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in
our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements of the year under audit. These matters
were addressed in the context of our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements as a
whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Estimation of the useful lives and residual values of
vehicles
Property, plant and equipment includes vehicles
amounting EUR 668 million for the Company and
EUR 824 million for the Group as at 31 December
2025, that are measured at cost less accumulated
depreciation and impairment. The book values of
vehicles are significant and form the basis of the
Company’s and the Group’s rental and leasing
operations.
The estimation of the useful lives of vehicles, in
accordance with IAS 16 "Property, Plant and
Equipment", is based on historic performance as
well as expectations about future use and therefore
requires a degree of judgement to be applied by
management. Residual values are determined
taking into account generally accepted market
forecasts adjusted where necessary to take into
account factors specific to the vehicles.
Management is required to assess the useful life
and residual value of an asset periodically and
changes should either be accounted for as an
impairment charge or as a change in accounting
estimate through prospective depreciation.
Due to its significance as well as the degree of
complexity and judgement required in estimating
useful lives and calculating residual values of
vehicles, it is considered a key audit matter.
For more information, refer to notes 2, 3 and 7 of
the financial statements.
Our audit approach included obtaining an
understanding of the vehicles management
process as designed and implemented at the
Company and the Group.
We evaluated and reviewed management’s
process relating to useful lives and residual
values assessment for vehicles and
examined the criteria used to identify
impairment indicators, with a focus on the
timely detection of impairments.
We tested the appropriateness of the
approach used and the reasonableness of
key assumptions applied by management.
Furthermore, we also reviewed historical
disposals of vehicles and the profit or loss
derived from these disposals to assess if the
followed approach reflects past performance.
We determined that the approach for
determining useful lives and residual values
of vehicles forms a reasonable basis for
management’s assessment and that the
available evidence supported the key
assumptions used.
The disclosures in the financial statements
are adequate and consistent with the
requirements of relevant accounting
standards.
Revenue recognition
The Company’s and the Group’s revenue streams
include vehicle operating lease and finance lease
income, vehicle sales and income from other
additional vehicle related services, which is an
important determinant of the Group’s profitability.
Τhe Group focuses on revenue as a key
performance measure which could create an
incentive for revenue to be recognised before the
risks and rewards have been transferred, resulting
in a significant audit risk associated with revenue
recognition. Furthermore, there exists an inherent
risk around the accuracy of revenue recorded given
the impact of changing pricing models.
Based on these factors, there is a heightened risk
that revenue is not completely or accurately
recorded or that revenue is not recognised in the
correct year.
Due to the significant risk associated with revenue
recognition and the increased work effort from the
audit team, the recognition of revenue is
considered a key audit matter.
For more information, refer to notes 2 and 31 of the
financial statements.
Our audit procedures included obtaining an
understanding of the various revenue
streams, considering the appropriateness of
the Group’s revenue recognition accounting
policies and assessing compliance of these
policies with relevant standards.
Our audit approach included understanding
the systems and process that are relevant to
revenue recognition, holding discussions with
relevant Company and Group employees to
validate processes and re-performing key
process.
Furthermore, we performed relevant
substantive audit procedures around the
various revenue streams, which focused on
the adequacy and consistency of the
accounting policies applied, by conducting
audit procedures over the point of transfer of
risk and rewards. Our audit procedures
included:
•Analytical review procedures on the different
revenue streams.
•Sample testing of transactions during the
year of all material revenue streams.
•Revenue cut-off procedures.
•Testing of sales returns and credit notes
issued after year end.
•Sample third party confirmation of annual
revenue and trade receivables at yearend.
Our procedures concluded that revenue
recognition for the Group’s revenue streams
is consistent with the Company’s and the
Group’s accounting policies and relevant
standards. Based on our work, we noted no
significant issues regarding the accuracy of
revenue reported for the year under audit.
The disclosures in the financial statements
are adequate and consistent with the
requirements of relevant accounting
standards.
Other Information
The members of the Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other
information, which is included in the Annual Report
1
, in accordance with Law 3556/2007, is the
Statements of Board of Directors members and the Board of Directors’ Report (but does not include
the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon), which we obtained prior to the date of this
auditor’s report.
Our opinion on the separate and consolidated financial statements does not cover the other
information including the Management Report of the Board of Directors.
In connection with our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is
to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information
is materially inconsistent with the separate and consolidated financial statements or our knowledge
obtained during the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
We considered whether the Board of Directors’ Report includes the disclosures required by Law
4548/2018 and the Corporate Governance Statement provides the information referred to in items (a),
(b), (e) and (f) of paragraph 1 of article 152 of Law 4548/2018.
Based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit, in our opinion:
The information given in the Board of Directors’ Report for the year ended at December 31, 2025
is consistent with the separate and consolidated financial statements,
The Board of Directors’ Report has been prepared in accordance with the applicable legal
requirements of articles 150, and 153 of Law 4548/2018, excluding the sustainability reporting
requirements for which a relevant limited assurance report dated 17.03.2026 was issued in
accordance with International Standard on Assurance Engagements 3000 (Revised) “Assurance
Engagements Other than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information”,
The Corporate Governance Statement provides the information referred to items (c) and (d) of
paragraph 1 of article 152 of Law 4548/2018.
In addition, in light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and Group and their
environment obtained in the course of the audit, we are required to report if we have identified material
misstatements
in the Board of Directors’ Report and other information that we obtained prior to the
date of this auditor’s report. We have nothing to report in this respect.
Responsibilities of Board of Directors and those charged with governance for the separate and
consolidated financial statements
The Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the separate and
consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as
adopted by the European Union and comply with the requirements of Law 4548/2018, and for such
internal control as the Board of Directors determines is necessary to enable the preparation of
separate and consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due
to fraud or error.
In preparing the separate and consolidated financial statements, the Board of Directors is responsible
for assessing the Company’s and Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as
applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless
Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company and Group or to cease operations, or has
no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Audit Committee (article 44 of Law 4449/2017) of the Company is responsible for overseeing the
financial reporting process of the Company and the Group.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate and consolidated
financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error,
and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of
assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs, that have been
transposed into Greek Law, will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these
separate and consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs that have been transposed into Greek Law, we exercise
professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the separate and consolidated financial
statements, whether due to fraud or error, by designing and performing audit procedures
responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide
a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is
higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional
omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s and Group’s internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies and methods used and the reasonableness
of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors.
Conclude on the appropriateness of Board of Directors’ use of the going concern basis of
accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists
related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s and Group’s
ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are
required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the separate and
consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion.
Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report.
However, future events or conditions may cause the Company and Group to cease to continue
as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the separate and consolidated
financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the separate and consolidated
financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves
fair presentation.
Plan and perform the group audit to obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding
the financial information of the entities or business units within the Group as a basis for forming
an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction,
supervision and review of the audit work performed for the purposes of the group audit. We
remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned
scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in
internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant
ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and
other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable,
related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters
that were of most significance in the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements of the
year under audit and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s
report.

DEVELOPMENT AND PROSPECTS
In 2025, the markets in which the Group operates recorded growth mainly in the sector of shortterm and longterm rentals,
representing the Hertz brand.
The increase in passenger traffic in Greece showed growth exceeding 6%, positively affecting the shortterm rentals. Despite the
high availability of cars in the market, the prices of shortterm rentals remained at last year’s levels. The upward trend of tourism
activity was maintained throughout the year, with slightly higher increases in the first and last quarter, improving the seasonality
of arrivals.
In the longterm leasing sector, corporate fleet registrations recorded an increase of 12% in 2025, further strengthening the share
they represent in total registrations, which amounts to 59%. This increase confirms once again the ongoing preference for leasing
over ownership. The Company’s longterm rentals recorded growth that exceeded the increase in corporate fleets, further
improving the Company’s market share.
In the car trading sector, total registrations in Greece recorded an increase of 5%, with the Group following this increase and
maintaining the market share of the brands it represents (Hyundai, Kia, SEAT/Cupra, FIAT, Jeep, Alfa Romeo) at the levels of 2024.
Despite the increased availability of vehicles in the market and pricing pressures, the Group’s commercial activity managed to
maintain profitability at a satisfactory level.
As part of the modernization of its systems, and following the change of its frontoffice operating system in 2023, the Company in
2025 also completed the transition to a new ERP system (back office). These actions form part of a wider investment plan for the
Group’s transition to systems that provide speed, flexibility and advanced technological capabilities.
For 2026, the Group aims for another year of growth. Nevertheless, the recent geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have
created conditions of uncertainty in the international economic environment. The Group closely monitors developments and
assesses potential impacts on its activities, which to a limited extent depend on international travel flows and tourism, while it is
not possible at present to reliably estimate the magnitude of potential effects. In any case, the Group has the required resilience
and flexibility to adjust to demand as a result of its structure.
(i) Short and long term rentals in Greece
In 2025, the activity in the Longterm Rentals (Leasing) sector maintained its positive momentum, contributing to the further
strengthening of the Group’s presence and market share in the Greek market. Despite the demanding economic environment and
the challenges that characterized the year, the demand for longterm leasing services remained at satisfactory levels, with
businesses and professionals increasingly turning to flexible mobility solutions for the more effective management of their
corporate fleets. Interest from private individuals also continued to rise, as they increasingly shift from owning their personal
vehicle to using a vehicle with services that relieve them from unpredictable costs.
During the year, the Company placed particular emphasis on the further development and utilization of technological tools
through digital applications, with the aim of the continuous upgrade of the experience of its customers. These initiatives focused
on providing immediate access to information related to the leases, as well as on the ability to address individualized needs.
At the same time, developments in the regulatory framework related to the reduction of emissions, combined with the gradual
transition towards electrification, continued to affect the shaping of the corporate leasing market. These trends strengthened the
interest in more sustainable and flexible fleetfunding models. In this context, the Company proceeded with the development of
new longterm lease programs, while leveraging synergies within the Group, with the aim of further strengthening its metrics and
maintaining its growth path.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025

Finally, we should highlight the importance that was attributed to the continuous training and professional development of the
Company’s human resources. Through specialized training programs and educational initiatives, the knowledge and skills of
employees were strengthened, with the aim of adapting to developments in the sector, providing more effective customer service,
and continuously improving the quality of the services provided.
The prospects for 2026 appear positive due to the strong first quarter. Nevertheless, the existing geopolitical environment has
created a degree of uncertainty. The Group has the structure and the flexibility to adapt to any potential stagnation or slowdown
in the market’s growth rate, as it has also demonstrated in the past.
The Shortterm Rentals (Rent a Car) sector in 2025 recorded improvement across all key performance indicators. The effective
management of the fleet and bookings contributed to the further strengthening of the fleet utilization rate. At the same time, the
consistent focus on the quality of the service provided, combined with the continuation of the extensive fleet renewal program,
led to a further improvement in the customer satisfaction index. Despite the continuing market pressures, the Company managed
to achieve a slight increase in the average daily selling rate compared to the previous year. This result derived both from the
improved management of the distribution channels, with emphasis on the direct channels, and from the more effective utilization
of the newer fleet. Furthermore, during 2025 the expansion of the activity on the island of Milos was successfully completed,
further strengthening the geographic footprint of the Company. The increase in inbound tourism also contributed significantly to
the positive results of the year, with the year closing with a 6.1% increase in air arrivals.
For 2026, the objective remains the achievement of similarly positive operational and qualitative indicators. The maintenance, as
well as the further strengthening, of the Company’s leading position in the Greek market constitutes a key strategic priority, with
continuous emphasis on the improvement of services and the maximization of customer satisfaction.
At an operational level, the maintenance of a high fleet utilization rate and the protection of the average daily rate to the maximum
possible extent continue to be critical objectives. The continuous renewal and upgrade of the fleet, with the enrichment of popular
car models, will continue, taking into account the extent to which demand will require it.
However, the current liquidity conditions, as a result of the geopolitical uncertainty in the Middle East, impose increased caution
on the estimates for 2026. The initial estimates predicted a mild increase in tourist activity compared to 2025; however, the market
remains in a waitandsee stance, with the evolution of prebookings being a decisive factor for the subsequent estimates.
In any case, Autohellas’ flexibility to readjust the level of investment in the fleet even within the tourist season constitutes a
significant advantage, allowing effective control and immediate adaptation to the prevailing market conditions. A decisive role is
also consistently played by the strong presence in the domestic market, which remains at the core of the Company’s strategy and
functions as a stability factor.
(ii) Trade of cars and spare parts
The partial temporary adjustment of the CO₂ emissions limit by the EU ultimately led to increased car production by manufacturers
and to an increase of 5.1% in the Greek market compared to 2024. This increase was driven mainly by the corporate sales market
(+12%), whereas the private (retail) market recorded a decrease (-3.2%). With regard to the market for fully electric cars in Greece,
it recorded an increase of 2.3% compared to 2024.
In this context, the Group’s import companies recorded a 7% increase in total sales volume, while the increase in fully electric cars
was notable at 89.4%. Despite the significant increase in turnover, the change in the mix of sales channels led to a marginal
decrease in profitability. Additionally, during the last quarter of 2025, the Group commenced the import and distribution of cars
of the Chinese manufacturers Changan and Xpeng, further expanding its footprint in the market, diversifying its brand portfolio,
and strengthening its ability to drive the evolution of the automotive sector.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
26
In 2026, the focus will be on the improvement of the provided after-sales services and on the further expansion of digitalization /
CRM, as well as on synergies among the brands. The development of the new brands will be supported through investments in
human resources, facilities, communication, and network expansion, so as to effectively manage their product expansion.
During 2026, uncertainty regarding the pace of transition to electrification will continue to exist, as it depends directly on relevant
EU decisions. However, the transition towards the so-called electrified powertrains, namely hybrid and plug-in hybrid, is now
clearly evident. In this development, the Group’s import companies will launch a series of new models in 2026, which will
contribute to the further improvement of their market share in these categories of vehicles.
The Retail activity in car sales during 2025 maintained profitability at satisfactory levels, despite the decline recorded in the retail
market segment.
At the same time, during the last quarter of 2025, two new sales points for new cars were added in Athens, directly connected to
the new brands that were recently integrated into the Group. Used-car sales remained at the levels of the previous year, while
the after-sales services activity recorded a significant increase both in sales and in profitabilityan evolution directly linked to
investments in both human resources and infrastructure.
In 2026, the primary objective remains the increase of the market share of the brands represented.
At the same time, investment in new sales points will continue for the further strengthening of the Group’s presence in Retail.
Simultaneously, particular emphasis is placed on used-car sales, where, through a targeted strategy, a significant increase in sales
volume will be pursued. In the area of after-sales services, the primary objective is the development of synergies through
investmentsmainly in facilitiesthat will improve the performance, operation, and profitability of the activity.
(iii) International Short term and Long term Rentals
The Company operates, through its subsidiaries, in the markets of the Balkans, Cyprus and Portugal. In the markets of the Balkans
and Cyprus, tourist traffic in 2025 was higher compared to the levels of 2024, with a particularly positive impact on shortterm
rentals, in combination with the increase in rental prices, improved fleet management and the optimization of the fleet mix.
With regard to corporate rentals, in the markets of the Balkans the market share remained stable, while in Cyprus it increased
significantly, focusing both on longterm rentals to small and mediumsized enterprises and on flexible forms of leasing, despite
inflationary pressures and the increasing intensity of price competition.
Tourism in Portugal in 2025 continued to record a positive growth rate, exceeding the levels of 2024 by 4.7%. The carrental
market, anticipating the increased demand, recorded a strengthening of the fleet, particularly with electric vehicles. The full
restoration of vehicle availability led to a normalization and decline in prices, despite the increase in arrivals. The particularly
competitive environment that was formed had a negative impact on the Portuguese subsidiary. Faced with these challenges, the
Company placed emphasis on the effective utilization of the fleet by increasing revenue per vehicle, on the renewal and upgrade
of the fleet with vehicles that match the needs of tourists, on the upgrade of existing facilities as well as the creation of new ones,
on investment in new systems and on the continuous training of personnel to improve customer service.
For 2026, the Portuguese subsidiary aims at increasing revenues and achieving profitability through various strategic actions. Key
initiatives include the improvement of the customer satisfaction rate and the optimization of pricing policy. At the same time, the
creation of a new bodyshop facility will allow the maximization of fleet availability. Finally, the subsidiary will focus on the sale of
used cars directly to consumers as well as to dealers.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE YEAR
In May 2025, Autohellas Group announced a partnership with CHANGAN, one of the largest electricvehicle manufacturers in
China, for the distribution in Greece of fully electric and plugin hybrid vehicles. Within this framework, the Company
established the whollyowned subsidiary CHANGAN Hellas SingleMember Société Anonyme, based in Greece, with an initial
share capital of €100,000 and activity related to the import and distribution of vehicles. On 23 July 2025, the process for
increasing the share capital of the newly established subsidiary was completed.
Following the €750,000 increase, the share capital amounts to €850,000 as at 31.12.2025.
On 22 July 2025, Autohellas proceeded with the signing of contractual documents for the renewal of the existing securitisation
agreement, with the main changes being the possibility to increase the Class A Notes by €70 million with the participation of
a second investor (Alpha Bank), the further improvement of the financial terms, and the extension of the maturity of the
revolving period by an additional year compared to the original agreement, namely until July 2027.
MAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The section below describes the main risks and uncertainties that is possible to affect the Group.
(i) Exchange rate risk
The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk from future transactions, from recognised monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the respective entity, as well as from its net investments in
foreign subsidiaries.
The Group, via its subsidiaries, is operating in Portugal, Bulgaria, Romania, Cyprus, Serbia, Montenegro, Croatia and Ukraine. The
existing operations of the Group abroad refer both in short-term and long-term leases. Due to these operations, the Group
transacts with clients and suppliers outside the European Economic Area and consequently holds assets and liabilities which are
expressed in different currencies than the Euro, which is the reporting currency of the Group. More specifically, the Group’s
subsidiaries in Romania, Serbia and Ukraine have liabilities/assets in RON, RSD and UAH respectively. However, these subsidiaries
do not expose the Group into a material exchange rate risk due to their size and the currencies that they use.
(ii) Interest rate risk
The Company and the Group are exposed to debt instruments which may be based on either floating or fixed interest rates.
International markets are closely monitored, and exposure to different types of financing is selected on a case-by-case basis with
the aim of minimizing interest rate risk. Additionally, interest rate swap products may be used to hedge interest rate risk
(iii) Credit risk
The Company does not have any substantial credit risk. Retail sales are mainly made through credit cards and electronic banking
transactions and by exception in cash. Wholesales take place only after a thorough check on the customer’s financial reliability
has been conducted, and in most cases advance payments or guarantees are obtained. In addition, the company and its
subsidiaries pay close attention to its credit collection period and act accordingly. Potential credit risk exists also for the Group's
cash, but for the deposit products are used recognised financial institutions with high credit standing. Additionally, in most of
these cases, the Group has debt obligations of a higher amount.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
29
(iv) Liquidity risk
The Group's liquidity is monitored on an ongoing basis. Effective management of liquidity risk requires the maintenance of
sufficient cash and marketable securities, as well as the availability of financing through adequate bank credit lines to meet
obligations as they become due and to close positions. Due to the dynamic nature of its activities, the Group has ensured flexibility
by maintaining unused credit lines. Additionally, the Company has secured financing for the purchase of vehicles for long-term
leases through the securitisation of receivables.
(v) Market price risk
With regard to market price risk, the Company and consequently the Group as at 31.12.2025 are exposed to the fluctuation risk
of the stock price of Aegean Airlines S.A., Trade Estates REIC. For 2025, there was a positive effect on the other comprehensive
income of the Company and consequently of the Group.
The Company and the Group are also exposed in the potential used car price reduction risk. The Group’s ability to sell its used car
fleet could be reduced due to several reasons, including the macroeconomic environment, changes in the operational model of
the Rent a Car sector, regulatory changes (such as changes in taxation, in environmental frameworks, as well as an over-supply of
new cars in the market), that will result in a reduction towards the demand of used cars and the subsequent reduction in their
prices. The Company and the Group have been dealing even to date with the risk of a reduction in resale prices through continuous
market research and marketability-based fleet configuration. At the same time, the Company is making adjustments to the
depreciation rates if required so that the residual book value does not deviate significantly from market prices.
Finally, the Group and the Company are exposed to the risk of changes in real estate prices. In the first half of 2008, there was a
change in the measurement method of properties, which are no longer valued at depreciable acquisition value but at their fair
value. This results in changes in the real estate market affecting fair values. The Company carries out a reassessment of the fair
value of the properties on an annual basis. As of 31.12.2024, the result from the valuation of properties was a profit of 1,071,268
for investment properties and 2,187,110 for own-used properties, while for the year ended 31.12.2025, the result was a profit
of €2,096,817 for investment properties and €2,149,936 for own-used properties.
(vi) Sales seasonality
Rent-a-car sales (short term rentals) are traditionally extremely seasonable in the Greek market, as they depend heavily on
tourist arrivals. It is indicative that 53% of total RaC sales in Greece, is generated during the July September period while this
figure for the foreign countries stands at 40% for the summer months. As a result, short term sales can be affected substantially
by events that have an impact on the tourism market, especially if such events take place at the beginning of the season. A key
factor in smoothing out seasonality is sales for long-term car rentals, as they are evenly distributed over time.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
All transactions to and from related parties are made under standard market conditions. Significant transactions with related
parties as defined by IAS 24 (and in the case of legal entities controlled by them, as defined by IAS 27) are described in detail in
note 41 of the Annual Consolidated and Standalone Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.
The Company complied with the provisions of articles 99 to 101 of Law 4548/2018 for the transactions of the Company from and
to its related parties in their entirety.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
i.Corporate Governance Code
The Company applies the principles of corporate governance as defined by the relevant applicable legislative framework.
The Company has voluntarily decided to apply the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code, which was issued in July 2021 by the
Hellenic Corporate Governance Council (hereinafter referred to as the "Code"). The Code is adapted to Greek law and business
reality and has been drafted on the basis of the principle of "comply or explain". The Company had not adopted, for the closing

Hellenic Corporate Governance Code

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING DATE
The recent geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have created conditions of uncertainty in the international economic
environment. The Group is closely monitoring developments and assessing potential effects on its activities, which to a limited
extent depend on international travel flows and tourism.
To date, no material impact has been observed on the Group’s activities.
Based on the data available so far, it is not possible to reliably estimate the magnitude of potential impacts, as these depend on
the duration and intensity of the geopolitical developments and their possible effect on tourism in the wider region.

SUSTAINABILITY STATEMENT
1. General Disclosures
i. General information
Introduction
The Autohellas Group Sustainability Statement presents the Group’s performance on environmental, social and governance (ESG)
matters, offering stakeholders a detailed and transparent view of how the Group manages sustainabilityrelated topics.
This section provides a concise overview of the material sustainabilityrelated impacts, risks and opportunities, as well as
Autohellas Group’s principles regarding the preparation of its Sustainability Statement. These principles form the foundation for
the Group’s sustainability reporting, guiding the preparation and presentation of its Sustainability Statement.
Basis for preparation
The Sustainability Statement is prepared in accordance with the requirements of the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting
Directive (CSRD) and the corresponding European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), issued by the European Financial
Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG), as well as Law 5164/2024, which incorporates the Directive into the Greek legal framework.
In addition, the Statement has been prepared based on the guidelines of the “ESG Reporting Guide of the Athens Stock Exchange
(AthEx).” This guide includes a set of key performance indicators that assess the company’s performance and align its activities
with specific criteria.
The Group has adopted the following time horizons, as referred to in ESRS 1, paragraph 6.4, for short, medium and longterm
horizons for reporting purposes:
Shortterm horizon: Within 1 year
Mediumterm horizon: Between 1 and 5 years
Longterm horizon: More than 5 years
The above time horizons are aligned with those used in the Financial Statements.
Scope
The Sustainability Statement covers the same reporting period as the Financial Statements, namely from 1 January to 31 December
2025.
The data are consolidated in accordance with the same principles applied in the Financial Statements, unless otherwise stated.
The consolidated ESG quantitative data relate to the parent company Autohellas Tourist and Trading Société Anonyme
(hereinafter “the Company”) and the subsidiaries controlled by the Company (together, “the Group”), as disclosed in Note 12 of
the Financial Statements. All subsidiaries of Autohellas Group are included in the consolidated Sustainability Statement, and none
are excluded in accordance with Articles 19a(9) or 29a(8) of Directive 2013/34/EU. Associates and joint ventures are excluded
from the consolidated ESG data.
The data included in the Environment, Social and Governance sections of the Sustainability Statement have been assessed as
material based on the Group’s Double Materiality Assessment (“DMA”). Additional data that were included in previous
Sustainability Statements of the Group, but were assessed as falling below the current thresholds of the double materiality
assessment, have been included in the appendix, as they are requested by certain ESG ratings and stakeholders.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
50
Autohellas conducted a Double Materiality Assessment to evaluate its sustainabilityrelated impacts, risks and opportunities (IRO).
The assessment was based on a defined set of selection criteria and was aligned with the guidelines of the European Sustainability
Reporting Standards (ESRS). The Group performs a thorough evaluation of its impacts, risks and opportunitieswhether positive
or negative, actual or potentialon both people and the environment, taking into consideration its value chain.
Measurement basis
The accounting policies were applied consistently throughout the financial year. The calculation factors and data sources are
presented in the relevant sections of the Statement.
Where required, comparative figures have been restated to align with the measurement methods applied to the current year’s
disclosures. Such instances are identified in the corresponding sections.
Accounting estimates and judgements
Certain data are based on estimates and assessments, which are reviewed and reevaluated periodically in line with experience,
developments in ESG reporting, and other relevant factors. Any changes are reflected in both the current and comparative figures.
Information on key estimates, judgments and assumptions is provided in the relevant sections of the ESG quantitative data.
Autohellas Group is committed to continuously enhancing its Sustainability Statement, ensuring an accurate and transparent
representation of its material direct and indirect impacts. The Company prioritizes the use of internal records and primary data,
seeking to expand their scope while reducing reliance on estimates or external sources.
Sources of estimation and outcome uncertainty
When measurements include data from the upstream and/or downstream value chain that are derived from estimates or indirect
sources, this is indicated in the corresponding section. The related explanation includes the specific metrics concerned, the
methodology applied, the level of accuracy of the results, and any planned actions to improve accuracy in the future.
With respect to disclosures on sources of uncertainty and measurement, there are no quantitative indicators or monetary amounts
subject to a high level of uncertainty, and no additional sources of uncertainty, assumptions, approaches or judgments used during
measurement have been reported. Regarding the sources of estimates applied and the uncertainty of outcomes, Autohellas Group
defines the assumptions adopted and discloses information on the sources of uncertainty relating to the relevant quantitative
metrics and/or monetary amounts. With respect to the analysis of climaterelated risks and opportunities in accordance with ESRS
requirements, uncertainties exist regarding the level of exposure to such risks, as the assessment supported by climate models is
expected to be completed during the next financial year.
Changes in the preparation or presentation of sustainability information
The current Sustainability Statement constitutes the second publication in which the Group presents sustainability information
aligned with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), as required by the Corporate Sustainability Reporting
Directive (CSRD) and Law 5164/2024. On this basis, the comparative year presented is 2024, and no changes have arisen compared
to the previous year.
Disclosures arising from other legislation or from generally accepted sustainability reporting frameworks
The Statement does not include information derived from additional reporting standards.

Reporting process and external review
The Group regularly evaluates its sustainability reporting process. It addresses risks related to incomplete or inconsistent
sustainability reporting, as well as potential inaccuracies or errors in data collection. To mitigate these risks, the Group has
implemented control mechanisms for reviewing quantitative and qualitative data across its business units and functions, as well
as a reporting process with automated datainput checks within the reporting systems.
In addition, the Group has engaged external auditors to perform a review of the Autohellas Group Sustainability Statement within
the framework of a limited assurance engagement, as described in the independent auditor’s limited assurance report on the
Sustainability Statement. The assurance process is riskbased, with the auditors providing updates on their risk assessments to the
Audit Committee and management, as well as to the Board of Directors during the review of the annual report.
The Sustainability Statement is approved by the Board of Directors.
ii. Sustainability Governance
Autohellas Group has established a sustainability governance framework that ensures clear oversight and management of
sustainabilityrelated matters. Oversight of sustainability risks is embedded within the Board of Directors and the Sustainability
Committee, ensuring that sustainability issues are addressed within the broader context of corporate governance.
Board of Directors
The Board of Directors is the highest governing body for sustainability and is responsible for approving sustainability policies,
overseeing material sustainabilityrelated impacts, risks and opportunities (IROs), and ensuring compliance with ESRS reporting
requirements. The Board reviews sustainability performance annually and evaluates progress against key environmental, social
and governance (ESG) commitments, including climate transition, responsible business conduct and corporate social responsibility
initiatives.
The Board of Directors is composed of members with diverse expertise in key areas relevant to the Company’s activities, such as
automotive services, fleet management, finance and international mobility solutions. Board members possess extensive
experience in corporate governance, risk management and strategic planning, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the
operational and geographical context in which the Company operates. The biographies of the members of the Board of Directors
are available on the Group’s corporate website (https://www.autohellas.gr/ependytes/etairiki-diakyvernisi/anotata-diefthintika-
stelexi/). Collectively, the Board oversees business development, financial sustainability and adaptation to evolving regulatory
frameworks, ensuring that decisionmaking processes are aligned with industry best practices and market trends.

Autohellas Group ensures that the Board of Directors and senior management have access to sustainability expertise through
external advisers, regulatory updates and industry best practices. Although sustainability is not a formal competency requirement
for Board members, training and advisory support are provided to strengthen ESG riskmanagement capabilities and compliance.
This approach ensures that sustainability factors are effectively incorporated into corporate decisionmaking processes and
governance frameworks.
At present, Autohellas Group does not have an employee or workforce representative serving as a member of the Board of
Directors. However, the Group maintains active communication with employees through internal communication channels,
humanresources policies and stakeholderengagement initiatives, ensuring that workforce concerns and perspectives are taken
into account in corporate decisionmaking. Workforcerelated matterssuch as workplaceenvironment policies, training and
sustainability initiativesare managed through the Human Resources Department and the Candidacy and Remuneration
Committee, which provide information to management and the Board of Directors on workforcerelated risks and opportunities.
Sustainability Committee
The Sustainability Committee manages sustainabilityrelated impacts, risks and opportunities (IROs), ensuring that the Group’s
sustainability objectives are aligned with the Company’s strategy, regulatory requirements and stakeholder expectations. The
Committee is responsible for identifying and assessing material sustainability matters, integrating them into corporate policies
and monitoring their impact on operations, supply chains and financial performance. It collaborates with the relevant business
units to ensure the effective management of sustainability risks, the capture of opportunities and the alignment of reporting
practices with CSRD and ESRS disclosure standards.
The Sustainability Committee is also responsible for reviewing and updating policies that incorporate responsibilities related to
sustainabilityrelated impacts, risks and opportunities, reflecting evolving regulatory requirements, stakeholder expectations and
business priorities. These policies cover key areas such as climate change, corporate governance, anticorruption, data protection
and workforce wellbeing. They apply to employees, suppliers, business partners and key stakeholders, ensuring that sustainability
commitments are upheld across the Company’s operations and value chain.
Through the Sustainability Committee, the Board of Directors and senior executive management oversee sustainability objectives,
ensuring alignment with the material topics identified in the Double Materiality Assessment (DMA). Key areas of focus include
emissions reduction, fleet electrification, energy efficiency and responsible business practices. Progress is monitored through
structured reporting, with updates provided to management and the Board of Directors. The Sustainability Committee evaluates
ESG performance and recommends adjustments, ensuring that sustainabilityrelated risks and opportunities are proactively
managed and embedded in the Company’s strategy.
The Board of Directors, in collaboration with its committees, is in the early stages of establishing a structured process for receiving
updates on material sustainabilityrelated impacts, risks and opportunities. At present, sustainability topics are reported to the
governing bodies on an adhoc basis, with the intention of developing a more structured annual review cycle as the Company
further strengthens its sustainability governance mechanisms.
Audit Committee
The Audit Committee of Autohellas plays a critical role in overseeing both the accuracy of reporting and the effective
implementation of the Company’s sustainability policy. It ensures that Autohellas’ sustainability disclosures are transparent,
reliable and fully compliant with Greek legislation as well as EU regulations and guidelines. This includes reviewing the ESG
(Environmental, Social and Governance) reports to ensure that the information provided is comprehensive, accurate and truly
reflects the Company’s sustainability efforts. In addition, the Audit Committee ensures that the sustainability policy is properly
implemented across all levels of the organisation, integrating key sustainability objectives into both operational practices and
strategic decisionmaking.

Candidacy & Remuneration Committee
The Candidacy & Remuneraon Commiee of Autohellas plays a key role in aligning the Companys leadership with its
sustainability objecves, overseeing the selecon of Board members and senior execuves who are commied to advancing
sustainability iniaves.
Autohellas applies a Remuneraon Policy for the members of the Board of Directors, prepared in accordance with Arcles 110 and
111 of Law 4548/2018 and inially approved by the General Meeng of shareholders on 18 December 2019. It has since been
revised on 15 July 2020, 31 March 2021 and 18 April 2024. The purpose of the policy is to align remuneraon with the Company’s
longterm business strategy, shareholder interests and sustainable development.
Its scope covers the members of the Board of Directors and, where applicable, the General Manager and Deputy General Manager.
The remuneraon structure includes xed remuneraon, variable remuneraon and other benets. Variable remuneraon is
granted only to the execuve members of the Board of Directors and is linked to performance evaluaon, achievement of personal
or corporate objecves and the nancial results of the Company and the Group, while also taking into account compliance with
corporate policies, including those related to corporate social responsibility, sustainable development and regulatory compliance.
Responsibility for seng and implemenng the Remuneraon Policy lies with the Board of Directors, which submits its content to
the General Meeng of shareholders for approval. The Candidacy & Remuneraon Commiee supports the Board in the
development of the policy, reviews variable remuneraon and oversees its implementaon. Once approved by the General
Meeng, the policy is published on the Company’s corporate website.
The proporon of variable remuneraon within Autohellas Group that is directly linked to sustainabilityrelated objecves and
impacts currently stands at 0%. The Company’s exisng remuneraon policy does not formally include sustainability performance
criteria.
However, in line with the Company’s Remuneraon Policy, variable remuneraon (bonuses) is awarded exclusively to execuve
members of the Board of Directors and is linked to their performance evaluaon and the Companys nancial results. The structure
is based on the achievement of personal or corporate objecves and contribuon to the Group’s nancial and operaonal
performance, while also considering compliance with corporate policies, including those related to corporate social responsibility,
sustainable development and regulatory compliance. This reects an earlystage assessment of execuve variable remuneraon
with regard to sustainability consideraons, although such criteria are not yet quaned.
Recognising the increasing importance of aligning remuneraon with sustainability objecves and the recommendaons of the
ESRS, the Company intends to examine the possibility of integrang specic sustainability indicators into its variable remuneraon
policy in future periods. This assessment will take into account industry best pracces, stakeholder expectaons and internal
strategic priories, with the aim of strengthening the link between execuve incenves and longterm sustainability.
Further details on the roles of the Audit Commiee and the Candidacy & Remuneraon Commiee are provided in the Corporate
Governance Statement included in the Board of Directors’ Report.
Due Diligence
Building on its existing practices, the Group is in the process of establishing duediligence procedures in key areas such as human
rights, supplychain management and stakeholder engagement, ensuring alignment with the relevant OECD Guidelines.
A table follows, mapping the sections of this Sustainability Statement where information related to the Group’s duediligence
practices is disclosed. The table serves as a useful tool for clearly and systematically illustrating how duediligencerelated
information is distributed throughout the full text of the Statement. This disclosure does not introduce additional duediligence
obligations nor does it alter the role of the administrative, management or supervisory bodies.

Strategy and Business Model Resilience
Autohellas Group is committed to identifying and managing risks and opportunities arising from the transition to a sustainable
economy, as well as the broader impacts of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors on its operations. The Group aims
to conduct a thorough analysis of climaterelated transition risks and physical risks, recognising that proactive assessment is
essential for the longterm resilience of its business model, strategy and financial performance.
The assessment of material climaterelated risks has been integrated into the Group’s existing riskmanagement framework. To
ensure resilience against identified risks, Autohellas recognises the importance of a strategic approach that focuses both on
mitigating climate impacts and adapting to them. The Group emphasises the continuous monitoring and evaluation of emerging
threats, while also leveraging opportunities arising from the transition to a lowcarbon economy. In addition, it implements
riskmanagement practices to address both immediate and longterm material risks, especially those related to fleet emissions,
regulatory developments and evolving customer preferences.
The transition to more sustainable business practices supports the mitigation of transition risks associated with climate change.
This includes the gradual electrification of the fleet, the adoption of lowemission technologies and efforts to improve energy
efficiency across all operations. To strengthen its ability to respond to climate challenges in the short, medium and long term, the
Group maintains flexibility in adjusting the composition of its fleet and service portfolio to meet evolving regulatory and market
requirements. Furthermore, Autohellas Group recognises the importance of employee training on sustainability matters, ensuring
that staff are adequately prepared to support customers in transitioning to greener mobility solutions. By prioritising these
strategies, the Group enhances its resilience while pursuing longterm financial and operational stability.
Identification of Sustainability Impacts, Risks and Opportunities
Sustainabilityrelated impacts, risks and opportunities are systematically assessed and fully integrated into Autohellas Group’s
broader corporate riskmanagement framework, ensuring complete alignment of ESG factors with strategic planning, operational
activities and key investment decisions.
In 2025, Autohellas Group continued its efforts to embed sustainabilityrelated impacts, risks and opportunities into the
Company’s broader riskmanagement framework. The Company conducted a Double Materiality Assessment (DMA) in order to
further enhance the identification and evaluation of environmental, social and governance (ESG) impacts, risks and opportunities.
Particular emphasis was placed on climaterelated risks, reflecting the growing importance of managing the effects of climate
change on operational activities, regulatory compliance and financial performance. Events during the year further highlighted the
need for proactive riskmitigation measures to address evolving sustainabilityrelated challenges. Specifically, climate impacts,
risks and opportunities influence the Group’s fleettransition strategies, capital investments and resource allocation. At the same
time, impacts and risks related to water management are taken into account in infrastructure decisions, operational planning and
facility management, with the aim of strengthening resilience to water scarcity and related disruptions.
Factors related to employee health and safety are embedded within operational policies and practices, shaping decisions regarding
working conditions, safetytraining programmes and emergency preparedness. In addition, opportunities for employee training
and development significantly influence decisions regarding resource allocation for skills enhancement, sustainability awareness
and capacitybuilding initiatives.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025

RiskManagement Process
The Board of Directors holds ultimate responsibility for monitoring risks and maintaining a robust riskmanagement and
internalcontrol system. Autohellas Group has established an Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) process that systematically
identifies, assesses, reports and mitigates key operational, strategic and sustainabilityrelated risks across the organisation. Each
identified risk is assigned to a risk owner within the Executive Management Team, who is supported by riskmanagement officers
responsible for implementing mitigation strategies within their respective areas.
The ERM framework follows a structured assessment methodology that evaluates risks based on their potential impact on financial
performance, operational continuity, regulatory compliance, reputation and business resilience. A twodimensional risk matrix is
used to assess both the severity of potential risks and the likelihood of their occurrence.
The Executive Management Team, the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors review and assess the most significant risks
on a semiannual basis, ensuring that emerging risks are addressed appropriately and that mitigation strategies remain effective.
Double Materiality Assessment Methodology
In parallel with the ERM process, Autohellas Group conducts an annual update of its Double Materiality Assessment (DMA), which
focuses on identifying sustainabilityrelated risks across environmental, social and governance domains. This assessment ensures
that sustainabilityrelated risks and opportunities are integrated into strategic planning and riskmanagement processes.
This process is carried out in accordance with the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the relevant
European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). Going forward, the Group will continue to strengthen the integration of
sustainability risks within the ERM framework, ensuring that ESG factors form an integral part of corporate decisionmaking and
operational strategies.
Autohellas Group applies a structured and datadriven approach to identifying, assessing and prioritising the material impacts,
risks and opportunities associated with its business activities. This process is informed by industry benchmarking, expert
consultation, stakeholder feedback and regulatory review, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation of sustainability factors.
The identification and assessment process includes benchmarking against industry peers and best practices, ensuring alignment
with evolving market trends and regulatory requirements. The Group closely monitors regulatory and policy developments
particularly those related to the EU Green Deal, the CSRD and climatetransition regulationsto anticipate compliance risks and
strategic opportunities.
Stakeholder engagement is also a fundamental component, with insights from investors, customers, suppliers and employees
contributing to the assessment of ESGrelated risks and opportunities. In addition, Autohellas reviews operational data such as
fleet emissions and resource consumption to quantify potential environmental and social impacts.
To prioritise risks and opportunities, Autohellas conducts materiality assessments that categorise impacts based on their financial,
operational, regulatory and reputational significance. Scenario analysis and stresstesting are key tools used to evaluate
climaterelated risks, enabling the Group to anticipate vulnerabilities and adapt its longterm strategy accordingly. Continuous
monitoring of sustainability indicators is embedded into business operations, supported by dataanalytics and reporting tools to
track progress toward ESG commitments.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
62
The Group’s duediligence framework ensures that potential and actual impacts on people, the environment and business
continuity are regularly reviewed and integrated into strategic decisionmaking. This proactive approach enables Autohellas to
adapt to emerging risks, seize sustainabilitydriven opportunities and strengthen corporate resilience, in line with ESRS reporting
requirements.
Autohellas Group has established a systematic approach for identifying, assessing, prioritising and monitoring
sustainabilityrelated impacts, risks and opportunities. This approach is guided by a duediligence framework, stakeholder
collaboration, expert insight and industry benchmarking, integrating environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors into the
Group’s overall riskmanagement and strategicplanning processes.
Methodologies and assumptions applied in identifying impacts, risks and opportunities
The Group applies a datadriven and riskbased approach to assessing the materiality of sustainabilityrelated impacts, risks and
opportunities. This process incorporates both quantitative and qualitative analysis of internal and external data sources, industry
standards, regulatory requirements and expert assessments.
The identification process integrates information from regulatory frameworks such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting
Directive (CSRD), the EU Taxonomy and the commitments of the Paris Agreement, as well as industryspecific risks related to
mobility and vehiclerental services. The underlying assumptions are based on historical performance data, predictive models and
scenario analysis to forecast future trends and potential regulatory developments affecting fleet management, emissions and
sustainablemobility solutions.
Process for identifying, assessing, prioritising and monitoring potential and actual impacts
Autohellas systematically evaluates sustainability impacts using riskclassification models, materiality methodologies and
sustainabilityreporting frameworks. The process includes the following stages:
Preliminary analysis and data collection: The Group gathers sustainabilityrelated data, regulatory developments and market
trends to identify emerging risks and opportunities.
Impact assessment: Each impact is evaluated based on its severity, likelihood of occurrence, and its economic, environmental
and social consequences.
Prioritisation and categorisation: Impacts are classified as 1Low, 2LowMedium, 3Medium, 4MediumHigh, 5High priority,
taking into account their significance to stakeholders, financial performance and regulatory compliance.
Monitoring and continuous improvement: A review mechanism ensures that risks and opportunities are reassessed regularly,
with findings integrated into the Group’s strategic decisionmaking process.
Focus on specific activities, business relationships and geographical areas with heightened risk
The riskidentification process prioritises areas where Autohellas is most exposed to sustainabilityrelated impacts, such as:
Fleet management: Emissions from leased and rental vehicles contribute to climaterelated risks.
Geographical exposure: Operating in regions with varying environmental regulations affects the Group’s compliance
strategies.
Stakeholder consultation and engagement with specialised external advisers
Autohellas engages with internal and external stakeholders to ensure a holistic approach to sustainabilityrelated risks and
opportunities. This includes incorporating insights from sustainability advisers, industry publications, ESGrating organisations and
academic research to enhance the decisionmaking process.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
63
In the next steps, the Group will further enhance its stakeholderengagement initiatives by collecting direct customer feedback
through structured surveys, targeted focus groups and qualitative interviews. This initiative aims to gain an indepth
understanding of customer expectations, preferences and concerns regarding mobility trends, vehicle electrification and service
improvements. These efforts will help Autohellas align its strategic priorities with customer expectations, identify new
opportunities for service innovation and ensure that sustainability initiatives remain customercentric and marketrelevant.
Prioritisation of negative and positive impacts for determining materiality
Negative impacts are prioritised based on their severity, likelihood of occurrence, regulatory compliance and stakeholder
concerns, ensuring that the most significant sustainability issues are reported transparently. Positive impacts, such as the
electrification of the fleet and opportunities for sustainable finance, are assessed in terms of their potential scale, strategic
alignment and business value.
Process for identifying and monitoring financially material risks and opportunities
Autohellas integrates the assessment of financial impacts into its ESG riskmanagement framework. Sustainabilityrelated risks
are evaluated in terms of their potential financial consequences, including regulatory fines, shifts in market demand and
fluctuations in operating costs.
Opportunities are assessed based on competitive advantages, cost savings and revenue generation from lowemission mobility
solutions.
Identification of dependencies on stakeholders and business relationships
Autohellas Group recognises that sustainabilityrelated impacts and dependencies are interconnected with risks and
opportunities, influencing both its shortterm operational resilience and its longterm strategic positioning. The Group
systematically analyses how its business activities, stakeholder relationships and valuechain dependencies contribute to material
sustainability impacts and how these, in turn, generate financial and nonfinancial risks and opportunities.
Autohellas operates within a complex ecosystem of stakeholders, including suppliers, customers, regulatory authorities, investors,
employees and local communities. Each stakeholder group contributes to dependencies that affect the Group’s exposure to risks
and opportunities:
Human capital: Skilled personnel represent a critical strategic dependency, as employee expertise and adaptability are
decisive for implementing sustainability initiatives, improving customer experience and driving innovation in fleet
management. Training the workforce in emerging mobility trends, digital transformation and ESG best practices is essential
for maintaining operational efficiency and regulatory compliance.
Suppliers: The Group relies on vehicle manufacturers for the procurement of its fleet, making it dependent on the
sustainability practices, emissionreduction strategies and supplychain transparency of its suppliers.
Customers and market demand: Consumer preferences for lowemission vehicles, electric mobility and sustainable
transportation solutions are evolving due to regulatory incentives and heightened climatechange awareness. Autohellas
depends on demand trends, where failure to adapt to the transition toward zeroemission fleets poses a commercial risk,
whereas timely investment in charging infrastructure and green leasing options creates competitive advantage.
Regulatory authorities and policymakers: The Group’s operating framework is shaped by European and national regulatory
requirements relating to fleet emissions, carbon taxation and vehicletaxation policies. The tightening of environmental
regulations entails compliance risk, while early adoption of sustainability measures aligns the Group with future mobility
incentives and subsidies for lowemission vehicles.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
64
Investors and financial institutions: Investors increasingly integrate ESG performance into their investment criteria.
Autohellas’ ability to attract sustainabilitylinked financing depends on its progress in fleet electrification, emissions reduction
and transparency in corporate governance. Strong ESG performance creates an opportunity for lower cost of capital, while
failure to meet sustainability expectations may lead to reputational and financingrelated risk.
Assessment of the Likelihood, Magnitude and Nature of Identified Risks and Opportunities
Each risk and opportunity is assessed based on the following criteria:
Likelihood of occurrence (e.g., regulatory developments, pace of technology adoption)
Magnitude of potential impact (e.g., financial losses, reputational damage, operational disruption)
Short, medium and longterm effects on the Company’s strategy and risk exposure
Prioritisation of SustainabilityRelated Risks in Relation to Other Risks
Autohellas integrates sustainabilityrelated risks into its overall Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework, ensuring that
environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks are assessed alongside financial, operational, strategic and regulatory risks. The
prioritisation of these risks is based on their likelihood of occurrence, the magnitude of their impact and their alignment with the
Company’s longterm business objectives, ensuring that sustainability factors are embedded in decisionmaking processes at both
Board and executivemanagement level.
Sustainability risksparticularly climatetransition risks, regulatorycompliance risks and supplychain dependencieshave been
classified as strategic business risks due to their potential impact on fleet procurement, financial performance and
customerdemand trends. The Board of Directors, with the support of the Regulatory Compliance and Risk Management Unit,
reviews sustainability risks as part of the overall riskassessment process, ensuring they are monitored, mitigated and integrated
into the Company’s strategy.
Compared with traditional financial and operational risks, sustainabilityrelated risks are gaining increasing priority due to evolving
EU regulatory requirements (e.g., CSRD, EU Taxonomy, and fleetdecarbonisation policies) and rising market expectations for
sustainable mobility solutions. Risks such as carbonpricing mechanisms, mandatory fleetelectrification targets and
ESGcompliance obligations within the supply chain are now considered highpriority due to their direct financial and strategic
implications.
Autohellas prioritises sustainabilityrelated risks based on materiality assessments, taking into account potential financial
exposure, reputational impact and businesscontinuity risks. Climatetransition risks, for example, are assessed not only in terms
of compliance costs but also as strategic opportunities, such as access to green financing, the expansion of lowemission vehicle
offerings and the strengthening of the Company’s competitive position.
Furthermore, Autohellas recognises that sustainability risks often intersect with other categories of corporate risk, such as
supplychain disruptions, technological developments and shifting consumer preferences. For this reason, sustainability risks are
not treated as standalone risks but are integrated into broader assessments of financial and operational risks. This ensures that
investment decisions, fleet strategy and longterm growth planning are aligned with the Group’s climate and ESG objectives.
DecisionMaking and InternalControl Processes
Sustainabilityrelated risks and opportunities are reviewed at both Board and executivemanagement level, with the findings
incorporated into investment decisions, fleetprocurement policies and carbonemissionreduction strategies. Internalcontrol
procedures ensure compliance with ESG disclosure standards and regulatory requirements.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025

Integration of Impact and Risk Assessment into Overall Risk Management
Sustainabilityrelated risk assessments are embedded into Autohellas’ overall riskmanagement processes, ensuring alignment
with corporate governance, compliance monitoring and strategic riskmitigation measures. Exposure to ESG risks is incorporated
into businessrisk reporting, scenario planning and stresstesting exercises.
Integration of Opportunity Management into Overall Strategy
Autohellas identifies opportunities linked to sustainable mobility, fleet electrification and shifting consumer preferences toward
lowemission vehicles. These opportunities are embedded into businessdevelopment strategies, investment planning and
partnerships with automotive manufacturers.
Input Parameters for Identifying, Assessing and Managing Impacts, Risks and Opportunities
Autohellas relies on scientific data, regulatory frameworks, industry reports and internal performance indicators to assess material
risks and opportunities.
The key input parameters include:
• Regulatorycompliance trends and EU policy roadmaps
• Emission forecasts
• Technologyadoption projections for electric and hybrid vehicles
• Marketdemand analysis for sustainable mobility solutions
Nonmaterial ESRS Topics
In accordance with the requirements of the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), Autohellas Group assessed
sustainability topics for their materiality based on their potential impacts on people, the environment and the Company’s financial
performance. Following this comprehensive doublemateriality assessment, certain sustainability topics were determined not to
be material for the Group’s operations and stakeholders.
The following topics were assessed as nonmaterial:
ESRS E2 Pollution
ESRS E3 Water and marine resources
ESRS E4 Biodiversity and ecosystems
ESRS E5 Circular economy
ESRS S2 Workers in the value chain
ESRS S3 Affected communities
v. Double Materiality Assessment (DMA)
Autohellas Group applies a structured materialityassessment process to identify the material impacts, risks and opportunities
(IROs) disclosed in its sustainability reporting. This process ensures that disclosures reflect both the significance of sustainability
factors for stakeholders and their potential financial implications for the Company.
The identification and prioritisation of material information follow the doublemateriality approach, incorporating both impact
materiality (how the Company affects people and the environment) and financial materiality (how sustainabilityrelated factors
affect the Company’s financial position and performance).

2. Environment
2.1 Disclosures in accordance with the EU Taxonomy Regulation
The EU Taxonomy is the European Union’s classification system for economic activities that, under certain conditions, can be
considered environmentally sustainable or activities that enable the transition toward environmental sustainability. According to
the EU Taxonomy Regulation, companies and organisations can attract capital to develop and further expand their sustainable
activities, provided they meet specific criteria.
The criteria that determine the level of environmental sustainability of certain economic activities are defined by the EU Taxonomy
Regulation (EU) 2020/852. To achieve sustainability in its economic development, the European Union has established six
environmental objectives, the attainment of which will promote sustainable development within the Union. Specifically, the
environmental objectives at the core of the EU Taxonomy framework are:
1. Climate change mitigation
2. Climate change adaptation
3. Sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources
4. Transition to a circular economy
5. Pollution prevention and control
6. Protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems
The delegated acts adopted under the EU Taxonomy Regulation provide the technical screening criteria that must also be met in
order for an economic activity to be considered aligned with the taxonomy. At the time of publication of this report, the eligible
activities under the Taxonomy have been defined through two delegated acts. In 2021, the EU adopted the first delegated act,
Regulation (EU) 2021/2139, as amended by Regulation (EU) 2023/2485, which established activities and technical screening
criteria for substantial contribution to environmental objectives 12 above, including the DNSH criteria applicable to the other
objectives. In addition, in 2023, the second delegated act, Regulation (EU) 2023/2486, was published, covering activities that
contribute substantially to environmental objectives 36 above. Finally, in early 2026, the EU adopted Delegated Regulation (EU)
2026/73, which amends the delegated acts mentioned above.
Achieving one or more of the aforementioned objectives grants an economic activity the status of sustainable, transitional or
enabling, depending on its alignment with the Taxonomy framework. Specifically, depending on whether the activity can currently
be performed in a fully sustainable manner, whether it can support the transition of the economy towards a more sustainable
model or whether it enables other activities to be carried out sustainably, economic activities are categorised into different
subgroups. To be considered aligned with the EU Taxonomy, an economic activity must meet all of the following criteria:
Contributes substantially to one or more of the environmental objectives defined in the Regulation
Does no significant harm (DNSH) to any of the environmental objectives defined in the Regulation
Is carried out in compliance with the minimum safeguards established under the Regulation
Meets the technical screening criteria set by the European Commission for each economic activity in relation to the
achievement of the Taxonomy’s environmental objectives
The provisions of the Taxonomy framework applicable at the date of this report require companies within its scope to disclose the
amount and proportion of activities that are eligible, noneligible and aligned with all of the above objectives, as part of their total
turnover, capital expenditure and operating expenditure, and to perform the corresponding alignment assessments for all such
activities. All quantitative information is accompanied by specific qualitative information for all objectives (16). The Group applied
Regulation (EU) 2020/852, as supplemented by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2139, Commission Delegated
Regulation (EU) 2021/2178, Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/2485 and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU)
2023/2486 to identify eligible activities.

In line with the recent updates and clarifications to the broader EU sustainabilityreporting framework, the Group will, for the
financial year 2025, continue to fully apply the mandatory provisions of the EU Taxonomy Regulation (EU) 2020/852 and the
supplementary delegated acts for the disclosure of eligibility and alignment indicators, as defined for this period. In subsequent
reporting periods, the Group will adjust its methodology accordingly, in line with the applicable legislative requirements.
Compliance with these criteria is monitored on an ongoing basis and reported annually, including within the nonfinancial section
of the relevant annual financial statements. As part of the EU Taxonomy reporting process, we disclose in the following section
the key performance indicators related to our economic activities for the 2025 financial year.
Activities of Autohellas Group
The Group thoroughly examined its activities through the lens of the EU Taxonomy in order to identify the share of its eligible and
aligned activities under this framework. This process forms the basis of its Taxonomy disclosures in the annual financial statements
and has also been applied in the current reporting period, during which the following eligible activities were identified:
• CCM 6.5. Transport by motorcycles, passenger cars and light commercial vehicles
Following the identification of the eligible activities, Autohellas Group recognised the importance of sustainable mobility and is
committed to continuously assessing the key fleetrelated activities in accordance with the criteria described in Annex I of the
Climate Delegated Acts, particularly those relating to Climate Change Mitigation. As part of this ongoing effort, Autohellas actively
reviews the technical specifications and emission standards of its fleet, with a strong emphasis on expanding its portfolio with
low and zeroemission vehicles. The Group acknowledges the importance of offering low and/or zeroCO₂emission vehicles in
the markets in which it operates and is taking the necessary measures to ensure that its fleetinvestment decisions and upgrade
initiatives progressively align with these standards.

2.2 Climate Change Mitigation
i. Strategy and Business model
Autohellas Group’s climate strategy focuses primarily on strengthening electrification and, more broadly, on the provision of zero
and lowemission vehicles (≤50 g CO₂/km) to support the limitation of global warming to 1.5°C, in line with the Paris Agreement.
The Group’s targeted approach includes the systematic increase of the proportion of low and zeroemission vehicles in the rental
fleet, incorporating hybrid and fully electric vehicles with the objective of reducing the overall emissions intensity. The Group
monitors Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions regularly, aiming to mitigate the impacts of climate change.
Beyond fleet renewal, the Group also places emphasis on improving energy efficiency across its facilities and promotes a culture
of sustainable development among employees through targeted training and awareness programmes.
At the same time, Autohellas recognises that the predominance of internalcombustionengine (ICE) vehicles in the rental fleet
entails significant risks of lockedin greenhousegas emissions. For this reason, the Group consistently implements fleetrenewal
strategies and strengthens electrification. Through the gradual integration of low and zeroemission vehicles and improvements
in operational efficiency, Autohellas seeks a substantial reduction in emissions intensity, demonstrating proactive and
forwardlooking management of transition risks in alignment with its longterm emissionsreduction objectives.
It is noted that Autohellas Group is not exempt from the EU ParisAligned Benchmark (EU PAB) indicators, as it does not operate
in sectors that result in automatic exclusion under Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1818, such as fossilfuel extraction,
highemission electricity generation or the manufacture of controversial weapons.
Governance and oversight
Autohellas Group manages climaterelated matters directly through the Board of Directors, ensuring oversight and accountability
at the highest level. The Board monitors the implementation of the Company’s climate strategy and may adjust its approach based
on evolving sustainability priorities and regulatory requirements.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
73
At present, climaterelated performance indicators have not been incorporated into the remuneration structure or
managementevaluation frameworks. Executive compensation is determined based on broader financial and operational criteria,
without specific linkage to greenhousegas (GHG)emissionreduction targets or other sustainability parameters.
Policies and Targets
Autohellas Group recognises the importance of formal policies relating to climatechange mitigation and adaptation; however, it
does not currently have explicit, formalised climate policies in place. The Group supports targeted electrification through the
acquisition of electric and hybrid vehicles—which generate lower CO₂ emissions compared with conventional petrol or diesel
vehiclesin its shortterm rental operations, as well as through partnerships. It is also actively reducing the impact of fleetrelated
emissions through practical measures such as fleet electrification, the integration of vehicles that meet strict emission standards
(≤50 g CO₂/km), and the implementation of energyefficiency improvements across its operational facilities. Climateadaptation
considerations are also examined informally through initiatives aimed at strengthening the resilience and continuity of fleet
operations and infrastructure against potential climaterelated disruptions. The formalisation and documentation of these
measures into explicit policies represent an area for improvement, with the Group committed to developing formal policies in the
near future.
Resilience Analysis
Recognising the significance of climate change, Autohellas Group conducted a resilience analysis of its business model and strategy
under three different climate scenarios. The analysis covered the most significant part of the Group’s activities and facilities
namely Greecetaking into account its value chain. Both physical risks and transitionrelated risks and opportunities were
assessed. The resilience analysis is expected to be extended prospectively to include the Group’s foreign operations.
For the assessment of physical/material risks, climate data were collected and analysed from ensemble simulations based on
EUROCORDEX 11 (European Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment), as provided by the European Centre for
MediumRange Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) for climate scenarios RCP 2.6, RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 (RCP: Representative
Concentration Pathways). For the assessment of transition risks and related opportunities, scenarios from the Network for
Greening the Financial System (NGFS) were used, based on data analysis from models for Greece and Eastern Europe. The
scenarios applied and their key assumptions are presented below:
LowEmission Scenario (RCP 2.6 from EUCORDEX 11 and Net Zero from NGFS)
This scenario is based on lowemission climate projections aiming to limit the rise in global average temperature to close
to 1.5°C through the early implementation of ambitious climate policies, a significant reduction in greenhousegas
emissions and the acceleration of technological innovation. A central feature of the scenario is the achievement of global
netzero carbondioxide emissions by 2050. This rapid transition entails increased investment and operational
requirements for businesses and organisations, affecting operating costs and longterm business planning. At the same
time, the strengthening of the regulatory framework and the tightening of climatepolicy measures heighten transition
risks but also create significant opportunities due to stricter compliance requirements, changes in energy markets and
growing pressure from consumers, investors and other stakeholders for the adoption of sustainable services and
products. Additionally, the prices of liquid fuels rise, directly affecting operating costs, while the development of
renewableenergy technologies accelerates.
EmissionMitigation Scenario (RCP 4.5 from EUCORDEX 11 and Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) from NGFS)
In this scenario, global warming is expected to peak midcentury and subsequently stabilise at approximately 2.5–3°C
above preindustrial levels. The scenario reflects the continuation of historical social, economic and technological trends
throughout the 21st century. Mitigation efforts focus primarily on improvements in energy efficiency, increased
deployment of renewableenergy sources (RES), and the application of carboncapture and storage technologies.
Transition risks are expected to remain relatively moderate, as market and regulatory pressures increase gradually.
However, physical climate risks intensify over the medium to longterm horizon due to higher temperature increases
and the more frequent occurrence of extreme weather events.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
74
HighEmissions Scenario Hot House World (RCP 8.5 from EUCORDEX 11 and Current Policies from NGFS)
In this scenario, the future evolution of the climate reflects a trajectory in which global economic growth continues with
a strong dependence on fossil fuels and is characterised by the absence of meaningful strengthening of climate policies.
Global warming is expected to exceed 4°C above preindustrial levels, making it the most adverse scenario referenced in
the relevant literature. Greenhousegas emissions continue to rise until approximately 2080, leading to extremely high
levels of warming, with the increase in global average temperature approaching 3°C within this century. These
developments significantly amplify physical climate risks and increase the likelihood of irreversible changes to the climate
and ecosystems. From a transition perspective, the scenario assumes the continuation of existing policies without further
ambition to reduce emissions. Within this framework, energy prices do not diverge materially from current levels, while
renewable energy sources remain limited in the energy mix, reducing incentives to shift toward a lowcarbon economy.
At the same time, the accelerating rise in temperature leads to more frequent and severe extremeweather events,
causing increased physical and material damages, intense pressure on critical natural resources and substantial strain on
infrastructure and operational functionality. Consequently, physical and material climate risks escalate considerably over
the medium and longterm horizon, making this scenario critical for assessing a company’s resilience under severe
climatestress conditions.
Given the nature and longterm characteristics of climaterelated risksparticularly with respect to their physical dimension
the Group must assess potential impacts over time horizons longer than five years. These horizons are determined based on asset
lifetimes as well as the characteristics of the Group’s business model and operating structure. Accordingly, the scenarios presented
above were evaluated across the following time horizons:
Short-term
Medium-term
Long-term
01 year | 20252026
15 years | 20262030
>5 years | 20302050
As part of this analysis, chronic and acute physical risks related to temperature, water, wind and solid mass, as well as transition
risks and opportunities related to policy/legal matters, technology, market changes and reputation, were identified and assessed.
In the initial stages of the analysis, emphasis was placed on identifying those risks and opportunities most likely to affect the
Group’s operations, financial performance and longterm resilience.
To assess the sensitivity of the Group’s business model and facilities, an industry analysis and literature review were conducted to
identify risks and opportunities relevant to its activities and business model. In addition, to estimate the magnitude of potential
financial impacts, relevant economic data were collected and analysed. Indicatively, these data included the Group’s energy
consumption from electricity and fossil fuels, greenhousegas emissions and the cost of insurance for its assets.
The likelihood of facilities being affected by climaterelated risks or opportunities was assessed through statistical analysis of the
three scenarios, examined over short, medium and longterm time horizons. The assessment considered the severity and
duration of each change in combination with a sensitivity analysis of the Group’s facilities and operations.
The assessment of the potential magnitude of financial impacts arising from physical and transition risks, as well as opportunities
relevant to the Group’s activities and facilities, was conducted through internal meetings with responsible executives. The final
score for each risk and opportunity resulted from combining the likelihood of occurrence and the magnitude of impact, with
overall risk classification derived from the product of these two parameters. Risks and opportunities were categorised into five
levels: low, lowmedium, medium, mediumhigh and high. Those falling within the mediumhigh and high categories were
identified as material.
The results of the Resilience Analysis for the assessed risks and opportunities are presented in the tables below:

According to the results of the assessment, material physical risks are estimated to be of low intensity in the short and
mediumterm horizons; however, they intensify over the longterm horizon, with the greatest exposure arising under the
highemissions scenario in the long term. In particular, the increasing frequency, duration and intensity of heatwaves in the
longterm horizon may cause operational disruptions, affecting both supporting infrastructure and the activity and performance
of the workforce.
At the same time, material transition risks are identified in the same scenario, showing a tendency to escalate over the longterm
horizon. Specifically, the tightening of the legislative and regulatory framework for GHG emissions may lead to increased operating
and compliance costs, with potential negative implications for the Group’s financial performance. In addition, the decline in
residual values when procuring/purchasing electric vehiclesdue to technological advancementsas well as the need for energy
upgrade across the Group may result in lower revenues and higher operating and capital costs in the medium and longterm
horizon.
Conversely, under the same lowemissions scenario in both the short and longterm horizons, material opportunities emerge,
such as the increased demand for low and zeroemission vehicles and the reduction of the Group’s energy costs through
investments in renewableenergy generation projects. These opportunities can have a positive contribution to profitability,
strengthen the attractiveness of the Group’s services, and enhance its competitive position.
Autohellas Group leverages the findings of the analysis by integrating them into its operational planning, with the aim of
strengthening its preparedness against potential climaterelated risks. Heatstress risks are addressed through the
implementation of emergency measures in accordance with government directives, while transition risks are mitigated through
continuous monitoring and application of the applicable legislation, as well as the adoption of sustainable practices and solutions.
In future years, the Group will assess whether the scenarios used for the sustainability reporting and ESRS requirements can also
be incorporated into the assumptions of the financial statements. Overall, the Group considers that it possesses the necessary
adaptive capacity in the short and mediumterm and that, by maintaining existing good practices and implementing
sustainabilitydriven initiatives, it can preserve the longterm resilience of its business model and competitive position.
Transition Plan
Autohellas Group recognises the importance of a structured transition plan to address sustainabilityrelated risks and
opportunities and to ensure the longterm resilience and viability of the business. Although the Group has not yet formally adopted
a transition plan, it is currently assessing the macroeconomic environment, market trends and the regulatory and compliance
framework, and is committed to developing a comprehensive programme that will define clear targets and pathways for reducing
its environmental footprint and enhancing longterm sustainability.
Furthermore, the Group intends to integrate its future transition plan into its overall business strategy and financial planning. This
integration will ensure that sustainability parameters are embedded in decisionmaking processes, investment priorities and
operational frameworks.
The transition plan will align with the Group’s strategic objectives, focusing on key areas such as fleet electrification, energy
efficiency, emissions reduction and responsible supplychain management. Financial planning will include the necessary capital
expenditures and operational investments required to support the implementation of transition initiatives, ensuring that
sustainability goals are achieved without compromising financial stability and growth.
Once formally developed by the Sustainability Committee, the transition plan will be subject to review and approval by the Board
of Directors. The Board will oversee its implementation, monitoring progress and adjusting strategies as needed to address
emerging risks and opportunities.

i. Impacts, risks and opportunities management
Autohellas Group systematically identifies and assesses climaterelated impacts, risks and opportunities through structured
internal evaluations. The Group recognises that its operations have a significant environmental footprint due to the high
proportion of internalcombustionengine (ICE) vehicles in its fleet, which contribute substantially to air pollution and
greenhousegas emissions. Conversely, the increasing integration of electric and hybrid vehicles into the Group’s fleet has a
positive effect on local air quality and reduces overall emissions, aligning its operations more closely with sustainability objectives.
The analysis below presents the main identified impacts, risks and opportunities for Autohellas Group relating to climatechange
mitigation, along with the actions undertaken to address them:
Impacts
Description
Type
Emissions from internal-combustion engines of vehicle fleet
Actual negative
impact
Reduction in emissions due to increased adoption of electric and hybrid vehicles
Actual positive
impact
Autohellas recognises that a significant proportion of its rental fleet consists of vehicles powered by internalcombustion engines
(ICE). These vehicles contribute substantially to greenhousegas emissions, negatively affecting urban air quality and exacerbating
climate change. Moreover, as the majority of the Group’s operational emissions arise from fuel consumption within its fleet, this
represents a material environmental footprint that the Group actively seeks to reduce through targeted fleetrenewal and
optimisation strategies.
Conversely, the Group’s continuous investments in fleet electrification and the integration of hybrid vehicles are beginning to
deliver notable positive impacts. The gradual incorporation of electric and hybrid vehicles into the rental fleet significantly reduces
fleetemissions intensity, contributing positively to improvements in local air quality and to the mitigation of global climate
change. Hybrid vehicles emit substantially fewer pollutantsup to 80% lower emissions compared with traditional
internalcombustionengine vehiclesthereby enhancing public health and environmental quality, particularly in densely
populated urban areas.
Although the Group has made steady progress toward fleet electrification, the rate at which electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid
vehicles are being integrated remains gradual. This slower transition is influenced by various external factors, such as limited
charging infrastructure and consumer uncertainty regarding electricvehicle technology. It is noted that electrification is supported
by tax, financial and other incentives within the regulatory framework of Greece and the European Union more broadly, aiming
to increase the adoption of zero and lowemission vehicles by both individuals and businesses.
Risks
Description
Type
Faster depreciation and uncertainty in the resale of electric (BEV) and hybrid (PHEV) vehicles due to technological
advancements.
Risk
The rapid pace of technological developments in the market for batteryelectric (BEV) and plugin hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV)
creates uncertainty regarding their residual values and resale dynamics, leading to faster depreciation and financial uncertainty
for the Group. To address this, Autohellas Group closely monitors market trends and technological advancements and strategically
manages fleetrenewal cycles by evaluating the useful life of its vehicles.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025

Opportunities
Description
Type
Reduced operating costs due to lower maintenance needs of EVs compared to ICE vehicles
Opportunity
Increased demand driven by customer awareness of sustainable mobility solutions
Opportunity
Tax benefits from support measures for low-emission vehicles (below 50g CO₂/km)
Opportunity
Reduction in financing costs through sustainability-linked financing with favorable terms
Opportunity
The ability to reduce operating costs through electric vehicles (EVs), compared with traditional internalcombustionengine (ICE)
vehicles, represents a significant opportunity for Autohellas. Specifically, EVs have far fewer moving parts and therefore require
less frequent maintenance and repairs, limited mainly to consumables and parts subject to natural wear such as filters, tyres and
brakes. In addition, the number of service visits required for an electric vehicle is lower than that of an ICE vehicle, thereby freeing
human resources and increasing the servicecapacity availability of the Group’s owned facilities and workshops. With respect to
energy consumptionand despite inflationdriven increases in electricity pricesenergy costs remain lower than fuel
consumption. All the above contribute to reducing the total cost of ownership of an electric vehicle over its full life cycle, positively
influencing the Group’s overall operational efficiency and profitability.
Furthermore, rising consumer awareness and preference for sustainable mobility solutions present another important
opportunity for Autohellas Group. As customers become more environmentally conscious and show increasing demand for
ecofriendly products and services, the Group is well positioned to capture greater market share by expanding its offering of
electric and hybrid vehicles. Meeting this demand through targeted marketing strategies and tailored product offerings can
strengthen customer loyalty and brand differentiation, further reinforcing Autohellas Group’s position in the competitive market.
In addition, the Group benefits from favourable tax incentives and regulatory support measures specifically designed to promote
electric vehicles and lowemission vehicles. Electric vehicles and those emitting less than 50 g CO₂/km qualify for financial
incentives and tax relief, such as accelerated depreciation, significantly improving the economic attractiveness of transitioning to
electric and hybrid fleets.
Finally, Autohellas Group recognises a valuable opportunity to reduce financing costs through access to sustainabilitylinked
financing, which generally offers more favourable termssuch as lower interest ratesto support companies in achieving their
climatetransition objectives. This opportunity is directly linked to the Company’s significant investment plan amounting to €450
million (20222026), implemented through cofinancing agreements under Greece’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan
(“Greece 2.0”). This initiative includes €225 million from the Recovery and Resilience Facility, €135 million financed by Greek banks
and €90 million contributed directly by Autohellas Group. This investment aims at the gradual renewal and expansion of the fleet
through the acquisition of electric and hybrid vehicles that meet strict emission standards (≤ 50 g CO₂/km). The vehicles acquired
under this plan emit approximately 80% fewer pollutants compared with their predecessors, significantly advancing the Group’s
efforts to mitigate climate change.
ii. Metrics, targets and accounting policies
Targets
The Group aims to reduce the intensity of its direct greenhousegas emissions arising from its operations through the adoption of
cleaner technologies and the improvement of operational processes. The Group is also committed to reducing energy and
resource consumption across its facilities. Although the Group has not yet formally adopted a transition plan, it is currently
assessing the prevailing macroeconomic environment, market trends, and the institutional and regulatory compliance framework,
and is committed to developing a comprehensive programme that will establish clear targets and pathways for reducing its
environmental footprint and enhancing longterm sustainability.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
79
Specifically, the Group seeks to achieve measurable annual reductions in its Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhousegas emissions by
targeting yearly decreases in emissions intensity, calculated in tonnes of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) per million euros of revenue, as
reported in its consolidated financial statements. By setting these intensitybased targets, the Group ensures comparability and
transparency in its climate performance, consistently linking its economic growth to its environmental impact.
With respect to fleet management, Autohellas Group is committed to gradually increasing the share of low and zeroemission
vehicles in its fleet, aiming for a significant reduction in the average fleetemissions intensity. This commitmentrequiring
substantial capital expenditure—will be supported in part by the Group’s cofinanced investment plan referenced above. By 2030,
the Group aims to materially reduce emissions from the total rental fleet, prioritising the acquisition of electric vehicles and
vehicles emitting ≤50 grams of CO₂ per kilometre.
The Group also aims to achieve improvements in the energy efficiency of its operations, particularly by pursuing continuous annual
reductions in total energy consumption across its facilities.
Finally, Autohellas Group intends to conduct a detailed resilience analysis of its business model and climate strategy, as well as to
develop a structured transition plan to address sustainabilityrelated risks and opportunities and ensure the longterm resilience
and viability of the business.

Accounting Policies
Scope 1 emissions arise primarily from fuel consumption in the Group’s rentalfleet vehicles, over which the Group maintains
operational control. This category also includes corporate vehicles used for the Group’s own operational needs. In addition, Scope
1 emissions include emissions resulting from the consumption of natural gas and heating oil at the Group’s facilities.
Emissions generated by leased and rental vehicles during their use by customers are estimated based on standardised
fuelconsumption factors per vehicle category and average mileage data.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
81
Scope 2 emissions are associated with the consumption of electricity at the Group’s facilities, which is supplied by external energy
providers. Electricity is used both to meet the energy needs of building facilitiesincluding heatingand for charging electric and
plugin hybrid fleet vehicles at the Group’s owned charging points. The calculation of consumption for Scope 2 emissions is based
on the energyconsumption quantities stated on the invoices issued by energy providers. For the calculation of marketbased
emissions, the emission factors provided by the Public Authority for Energy & Environmental Resource Management and local
suppliers are used, while for locationbased emissions, the emission factors of the local energy grid are applied.
Regarding Scope 3 emissions, Autohellas Group has calculated additional categories in order to provide a comprehensive
representation of the indirect emissions associated with its value chain. The Greenhouse Gas Protocol categories that were
calculated are as follows:
Category 1 Purchased goods and services
Category 2 Capital goods
Category 3 Fuel and energyrelated activities (not included in Scope 1 or Scope 2)
Category 4 Upstream transportation and distribution
Category 11 Use of sold products
Category 13 Downstream leased assets
Category 15 Investments
The total fossil energy consumed and the total renewable energy consumed include the share of electricity derived from fossil
fuels and renewable sources within the overall electricitysupply mix. These indicators provide a comprehensive view of total
energy consumption and its distribution between traditional (fossil) and sustainable (renewable) energy sources.
The total nuclear energy consumed refers exclusively to the proportion of energy derived from nuclear sources within the
electricitysupply mix.
Finally, it should be noted that Autohellas Group does not apply carbonpricing mechanisms, such as internal carbon pricing or
emissionstrading systems, and does not participate in voluntary offsetting programmes, greenhousegas removals or mitigation
projects financed through carbon credits. In addition, the Group does not procure Guarantees of Origin (GOs) for the electricity it
consumes, meaning that its energy supply is not certified as originating from renewable sources.
2.3 Water and Marine Resources
Autohellas Group operates an extensive network of more than 140 carrental locations, several of which are situated in island
regions that may face increasing water scarcity due to geographical constraints, heightened seasonal tourism and climaterelated
variability. Within these operating conditions, Autohellas Group primarily uses water for vehicle cleaning, either at
companyowned washing facilities or through contracted partners, and discharges most of this water into municipal wastewater
systems.
i. Impacts, risks and opportunities management
Although water scarcity is not currently a critical operational constraint for Autohellas, the Group recognises its strategic
importance as a vital natural resource and the potential impact it may have on rental operations. However, at present, the Group
does not have sufficient data or information to support a substantiated waterimpact assessment, nor can it establish reliable
assumptions on this matter.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
82
Accordingly, although the Group recognises the importance of water management within the sustainability context, it is not
currently ablebased on available datato classify it as a material topic within its strategy. At the same time, the Group is
committed to revisiting the issue and pursuing the collection of the necessary information in order to draw reliable conclusions
and conduct a substantiated assessment in the future.
The nature of the Group’s operationsprimarily shortterm, but also longterm vehicle rentalsrequires the regular cleaning of
vehicles, which demands significant water usage and may affect water consumption in areas experiencing water scarcity.
To mitigate this impact, Autohellas Group is committed to implementing targeted actions to reduce water consumption in its
fleetcleaning operations. The Group will explore and adopt waterfree or lowwateruse maintenance solutions where feasible,
significantly reducing its dependence on water sources.
Autohellas will also initiate awareness and training programmes for employees responsible for fleet cleaning, highlighting best
practices for effective water management.
Related Policies
At present, Autohellas Group has not established a dedicated watermanagement policy. However, recognising the increasing
importance of water resources and the evolving regulatory landscape, the Group is actively developing a comprehensive

communication regarding development opportunities and career prospects further enhances the Group’s reputation as a
desirable employer.
Strengthening workforce skills represents an important opportunity for Autohellas Group to achieve higher operational efficiency.
A welltrained and capable workforce enables streamlined processes, optimal resource utilisation, reduced operational errors and
increased adaptability to industry developments.
To effectively leverage this opportunity, Autohellas systematically updates its employeetraining and development programmes,
integrating industry best practices and emerging trends with the aim of enhancing operational performance. At the same time,
the Group actively encourages employee participation in continuousimprovement initiatives, promoting the identification and
implementation of measures to boost efficiency. The effectiveness of these strategies is monitored through key operational
performance indicators linked to workforce capabilities, thereby ensuring the continuous improvement of operational efficiency
and competitiveness.

principles across all its operations and its supply chain. There are no exceptions within the Company’s workforce, as Autohellas is
committed to providing equal opportunities and protection to all employees, regardless of role or type of employment.

ensures a safe and secure working environment by implementing occupationalhealthandsafety practices across all its facilities,
placing particular emphasis on minimising risks associated with machinery use and extreme weather conditions.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
86
The Group’s Health and Safety Policy reflects the Company’s strong commitment to creating a safe and supportive environment
for all individuals involved in its activities, without exception. The Policy aligns with internationally recognised standards, such as
ISO 45001, and complies with local regulatory requirements, ensuring the highest levels of conformity. In developing the Policy,
the Company carefully considers the needs and interests of key stakeholders, including employees, external partners and the
wider community. The Policy incorporates practical measures such as regular risk assessments, tailored training programmes,
clearly defined emergencyresponse procedures and a continuous effort to enhance workplace safety.
The Board of Directors holds ultimate responsibility for its implementation. To ensure transparency and accessibility, the Policy is
communicated through multiple channels, including the Company’s internal network, training sessions and communications from
the Risk and Compliance Management Unit and the Human Resources Department. This ensures that all individuals affected by
the Policy or responsible for implementing it are fully informed and empowered to contribute to a safe and healthy working
environment.
Respect for human rights and labour standards is embedded in Autohellas Group’s management practices, with strict prohibition
of violations such as forced labour, child labour and modern slavery. Employees can confidentially report any concerns or
violations through the established grievance mechanism, ensuring prompt investigation and appropriate action. All employees
are paid above the statutory minimum wage, in accordance with the national legislation of each respective country. Autohellas
Group recognises the importance of aligning its humanrights practices with international standards. In this context, the Group
intends to explore the possibility of conducting a Human Rights Impact Assessment (HRIA) in line with the UN Guiding Principles
on Business and Human Rights. The potential implementation of such an assessment will be examined during the next reporting
period, reflecting the Group’s ongoing commitment to responsible business conduct and continuous improvement in
humanrights governance.
Although Autohellas does not currently maintain a dedicated policy exclusively focused on diversity, equality and inclusion, it
remains fully compliant with national and European legislation on antidiscrimination and equal treatment. Promoting equal
opportunities and fostering a multicultural and inclusive working environment is a fundamental principle for Autohellas. By
recognising and respecting the diverse backgrounds and lifestyles of its employees, the Group actively supports all employees by
providing fair and equal opportunities for professional development and advancement.
In addition to the aforementioned policies, Autohellas Group has designed and implements a Violence and Harassment Policy,
reflecting the Company’s firm commitment to ensuring a safe, respectful and inclusive working environment for all employees,
external partners and stakeholders. The Policy defines violence and harassment as any behaviour, act, practice or threat that may
cause physical, psychological, sexual or economic harm, whether occurring as a single incident or repeatedly. It explicitly refers to
harassment that violates personal dignity or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive environment, including genderbased
harassment, sexual harassment and discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression.
The Policy applies to all individuals working with or for the Company, regardless of their employment status, including
employees, external partners, trainees and interns. It covers incidents occurring within the workplace, during business travel, in
Companyprovided areas (such as rest spaces, changing rooms or accommodation), as well as through professional
communications, including digital platforms. The Company strictly prohibits all forms of violence and harassment, including
genderbased and sexual harassment, adopting a zerotolerance approach toward such behaviours. Autohellas is committed to
receiving, investigating and addressing all complaints with absolute confidentiality and respect for human dignity, ensuring that
no obstacles hinder the reporting of incidents.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
87
The policy places emphasis on critical areas of implementation, such as employee training and awareness on the identification
and prevention of workplace violence and harassment, the conduct of risk assessments, and the promotion of a culture of respect,
diversity and inclusion. The Head of the Regulatory Compliance Unit, in collaboration with the Head of the Internal Audit Unit, is
responsible for managing incidents, supporting affected employees and ensuring that all cases are handled with discretion and
fairness. In addition, Autohellas ensures that all employees, during the onboarding process, are informed about their rights, the
relevant legal framework, and the procedures for reporting and addressing incidents, fostering a working environment where
respect and safety are paramount.
The Group systematically monitors the effectiveness of these policies through regular employeetraining programmes, structured
grievancesubmission processes, continuous incident logging and workforce feedback, ensuring their ongoing and effective
implementation.
Engagement with Own Workforce
Autohellas Group maintains regular and transparent communication with its employees through structured channels such as the
opendoor policy and the internal intranet platform. Employees can openly raise concerns, suggestions or comments directly with
supervisors and senior management, ensuring continuous exchange of views and timely responsiveness. This is particularly
important given the absence of formal employee representatives. Senior management, supported by departmental heads, holds
operational responsibility for ensuring effective employee engagement across the Organisation. Autohellas Group evaluates the
effectiveness of these engagement practices through regular employeesatisfaction surveys and analysis of workforce feedback.
Employee engagement takes place on a regular basis throughout the year through scheduled team meetings, discussions with
supervisors and participation in internal employeesatisfaction surveys. Team meetings and discussions with management occur
periodically as part of the departments’ daytoday operations, while structured employee surveys are conducted at regular
intervals to collect systematic feedback on workingenvironment issues, skills development and organisational culture.
The conclusions drawn from employee engagement directly inform the Company’s decisions, particularly on matters concerning
occupational safety, training and skillsdevelopment initiatives, working conditions and diversity and inclusion policies. Through
these processes, the Group ensures that employee perspectives are incorporated into the shaping of workplace practices, thereby
strengthening workforce satisfaction, operational efficiency and organisational resilience.
Addressing Negative Impacts
Autohellas Group recognises the importance of promptly addressing any concerns raised by its workforce, particularly when these
may have a negative impact on employees. The Group has established procedures to manage and remedy such impacts in an
immediate and effective manner.
Employees at Autohellas have access to multiple internal channels to express concerns or needs directly. These include direct
communication with supervisors and management teams through the Group’s established “opendoor” policy, as well as
electronic channels such as the corporate intranet, which enables confidential and efficient issue reporting.
In addition, the Company implements a Reporting Management Policy, through which it encourages the timely reporting of
potential misconduct or irregularities.
Reports/complaints may be submitted anonymously through the following methods:
In writing, addressed to the Head of the Regulatory Compliance Unit.
By email, at whistleblowing@autohellas.gr
Through the We Act TOGETHER platform.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
88
Employees, customers and suppliers of the Company are encouraged to submit reports concerning criminal acts, suspected
incidents of unlawful behaviour, cases of mismanagement or serious irregularities/omissions in relation to the Company’s
regulations, policies and procedures. This channel is managed internally, strengthening employee trust and ensuring absolute
confidentiality.
Within the framework of the Reporting Management Policy, the confidentiality of the report and its associated data is
safeguarded, as well as the protection of the reporter’s anonymity, even in cases where a report is subsequently found to be
incorrect or unfounded. At the same time, the Company maintains a zerotolerance policy toward any form of threat, retaliation,
sanction or adverse discriminatory treatment against the reporter, the reported individual or any person participating in the
investigation process. In this context, appropriate measures may be taken in cases of retaliatory acts or threats, without prejudice
to the rights of the individuals involved in accordance with applicable legislation.
Autohellas systematically monitors and records issues reported through these mechanisms. The Group maintains detailed records
of submitted concerns, ensures timely responses and evaluates the effectiveness of corrective actions. Regular reviews by senior
management confirm that these channels remain effective and reliable. To further support continuous improvement, Autohellas
periodically conducts internal employee surveys to assess employee awareness and trust in these processes. The results of these
surveys, along with employee feedback, are used to strengthen engagement and communication practices.
iii. Metrics and targets
Targets
To further strengthen health and safety standards and address the needs of employees, Autohellas Group has set the following
targets, which are expected to be achieved by 2026:
Conduct emergencypreparedness drills covering at least 20% of the Group’s employees. These drills are essential to ensure
that employees are prepared for emergency situations, enabling rapid and effective responses in critical circumstances.

that personnel in these locations possess the necessary knowledge and skills to perform their duties safely, thereby reducing
the likelihood of accidents and injuries.
Enhance the reporting framework for employee training and upskilling initiatives. This will enable more effective monitoring
of performance and progress toward targets. It includes systematic recording of participation rates, training hours and
skillsdevelopment outcomes, ensuring greater transparency and facilitating the evaluation of progress toward strategic
workforcedevelopment objectives.

road safety. This risk may arise from potential gaps in vehicle maintenance, inconsistent adherence to safety protocols and
variability in roadsafety practices. In particular, insufficient fleet maintenance could result in elevated accident risks, while
inadequate roadsafety measures may jeopardise customer safety, potentially affecting individuals as well as the Company’s
reputation.
To effectively mitigate these risks, Autohellas Group systematically implements comprehensive fleetmaintenance programmes,
ensuring that vehicles undergo stringent inspections and comply with strict quality and safety standards. Structured vehicle checks
and preventivemaintenance programmessupported by advanced diagnostic tools and specialised staff trainingform a key
component of this process. Vehicles undergo detailed safety inspections before each rental, with particular focus on critical safety

mechanisms is assessed through key performance indicators such as customersatisfaction scores, number of complaints and
servicequality evaluations.
Consumer Complaints & Grievance Mechanisms
Autohellas Group has established comprehensive procedures to provide and activate corrective measures in relation to
humanrights impacts that may affect consumers and endusers. Customers have access to structured complainthandling
mechanisms, which include online reporting channels, direct communication with customerservice representatives and
escalation pathways to independent mediation bodies where necessary. The “We ACT Together” Reporting Platform provides an
additional channel for stakeholders to anonymously report ethical concerns, with strict protections against retaliation. These
mechanisms are continuously monitored to ensure accessibility, effectiveness and reliability. The Group communicates available
reporting channels to consumers and monitors issueresolution rates to assess effectiveness. All communication channels are
included in service documents, such as offers, rental agreements and invoices.
In cases where material adverse impacts on consumers have been identified, the Group takes immediate action to remedy the
situation. Corrective measures may include revision of service agreements, provision of refunds, enhancement of vehiclesafety
measures or strengthening of dataprotection protocols. If a consumerrelated issue indicates systemic risks, the Group conducts
a rootcause analysis and implements broader policy changes. Furthermore, Autohellas Group continuously works to create
positive consumer outcomes by expanding its lowemission vehicle fleet, enhancing digital services and improving accessibility for
diverse customer groups.
It is noteworthy that no serious humanrights incidents related to endusers were recorded during the year.
Performance Monitoring & Consumer Evaluation
Autohellas Group has defined clear targets linked to consumer performance, ensuring ongoing improvements in customer
satisfaction, safety and accessibility. Consumers participate in the definition and monitoring of these targets through regular
consultations, surveys and advisory committees. Performance against these targets is monitored through periodic reviews, and
adjustments are made based on consumer feedback.
The Group’s strategic decisionmaking is shaped by the interests, views and rights of its consumers. Consumer wellbeing is
embedded in the business model, influencing fleet management, service offerings and sustainability initiatives. The Group
considers all consumers and endusers who may be significantly affected by its operations, products and business relationships.
Where negative impacts arise, they are evaluated to determine whether they stem from broader systemic issuessuch as
dataprotection risks in digital servicesor from isolated incidents, such as safety concerns related to specific vehicles.
Beyond mitigating risks, Autohellas Group actively seeks opportunities to generate positive outcomes for consumers. This includes
expanding ecofriendly mobility options, improving digital accessibility and increasing transparency across its services. The Group
also assesses whether customers with specific sensitivities may face heightened risks and adapts its service models accordingly.

business partners and suppliers. The Company complies with the United Nations Convention against Corruption through the
implementation of its AntiBribery/AntiCorruption Policy, under which it commits to conducting its activities with integrity and
in accordance with applicable anticorruption legislation. The Company follows a zerotolerance approach to bribery, corruption
and any form of unethical behaviour and requires employees and third parties acting on its behalf to adhere to the relevant
principles and procedures.
Autohellas Group is committed to maintaining high standards of ethics and transparency, which contribute to creating a fair and
trustworthy business environment.
Strict adherence to applicable laws and regulations enhances the confidence of investors, customers and other stakeholders, while
reducing the risk of legal and operational impacts.
Within this context, the Group has identified one material positive impact and one material risk related to corporate culture and
governance:

Compliance with the European Regulatory Framework and New Directives
Within the context of modern regulatory requirements, Autohellas is required to comply with a series of new as well as existing
directives and regulations, which affect both its financial obligations and its environmental, social and governance practices.
- CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive): The new sustainabilityreporting directive increases transparency
and disclosure requirements on ESG matters. The Group must ensure that the data it publishes are reliable, accurate and
consistent with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), requiring enhanced datacollection and analysis
systems.
- GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation): Personaldata protection is a critical legal matter, with increased
requirements for the processing, storage and security of customer, employee and partner data. Noncompliance can lead
to severe financial penalties and reputational damage.
The Group has identified a related risk linked to customer personal data, further analysed in the section “Consumers and
EndUsers” of the Sustainability Statement.
- AntiMoney Laundering (AML) Directives: Autohellas is required to implement strict transactionmonitoring and
duediligence procedures to prevent financial crime, corruption and fraud.
- Tax Transparency and BEPS (Base Erosion and Profit Shifting): International and EU requirements on tax transparency
and the prevention of profit shifting impose strict documentation and reporting obligations on the Group.
- Further related information is disclosed in Note 37(iv) of the Financial Statements.
Complexity and Continuous Monitoring of Legal Developments
The increasing complexity of the regulatory environment requires Autohellas to maintain mechanisms for the continuous
monitoring of legal and regulatory changes. Legal requirements differ across the countries in which the Group operates, making
ongoing collaboration with legal and tax advisors essential.
Frequent legislative amendments necessitate rapid adaptation of internal processes to avoid legal and financial penalties. The risk
of noncompliance is amplified by the multifaceted nature of regulatory requirements, covering areas ranging from financial
transparency to environmental and social responsibility.
Impacts of NonCompliance
Noncompliance with the aforementioned regulatory requirements may result in significant adverse impacts, such as financial
penalties and fines from regulatory authorities, loss of investors and financing opportunitiessince failure to meet ESG standards
can affect access to green financing. In addition, noncompliance may lead to disruptions in cooperation with international
suppliers and customers who require adherence to specific regulatory frameworks, as well as legal claims and litigation, resulting
in increased costs and reputational risk.

ii. Impacts, risks and opportunities management
To manage the material impacts, risks and opportunities related to business conduct and corporate culture, Autohellas has
adopted a comprehensive set of policies aligned with international best practices. These policies aim to uphold high ethical
standards across all Group activities, fostering a corporate culture characterised by integrity, transparency and accountability.
These policies include, among others, the following:
Code of Conduct
The Code of Conduct sets out the ethical principles and guidelines for responsible business practices, ensuring compliance with
local and international legislation, as well as respect for human rights and environmental standards. Core values include integrity,
transparency, accountability, fairness, respect for diversity and commitment to sustainabilitypromoting a culture of trust and
responsible decisionmaking across all activities. The Code applies to all employees, suppliers and business partners of the Group.
It is approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, as are any amendments, and is implemented across all Autohellas Group
companies. Responsibility for monitoring its implementation lies with the Human Resources Department, which ensures its
integration into staffawareness and training processes. The Code of Conduct is included in the onboarding package for newly
hired employees, and all employees are required to sign a declaration of acceptance and commitment to its principles upon initial
issuance or revision. Employees may contact the Human Resources Department for guidance or clarifications regarding its
application.
Internal Regulation of Operation
The Company applies an Internal Regulation of Operation prepared in accordance with Article 14 of Law 4706/2020 on corporate
governance, the Company’s Articles of Association, the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code of SEV adopted by the Company, and
the applicable regulatory and legislative framework governing its operations. The Regulation defines the organisational and
operational framework of the Company and includes, among others, the organisational structure, the responsibilities of the Board
of Directors and its committees, and the key features of the internalcontrol, riskmanagement and compliance systems. It also
includes policies and procedures relating to regulatory compliance, the management of inside information, transactions with
related parties, the prevention of conflicts of interest, the periodic evaluation of the corporategovernance system and the
internalcontrol system, as well as the Company’s sustainability policy.
The Regulation applies to members of the Board of Directors and its committees, the Chief Executive Officer, General Managers,
senior executives and all Company employees. It may also apply to partners providing services to the Company under
independentservices or project contracts, where the cooperation is based on a relationship of trust or explicitly stipulated in the
agreement. These individuals are bound by the provisions of the Regulation and must perform their duties in line with corporate
decisions, policies, procedures and their supervisors’ instructions.
The Board of Directors holds ultimate responsibility for the implementation of the Regulation and the overall supervision of the
corporategovernance framework. It is responsible for the management and oversight of the Company’s activities and for ensuring
the effectiveness of internalcontrol, riskmanagement and compliance systems.
The Regulation is approved by the Board of Directors and enters into force upon approval. A summary of the Regulation and any
amendments are published on the Company’s website. Its suitability and effectiveness are periodically assessed by the Board of
Directors, senior management and the Internal Audit Department, and any need for modification is reviewed by the Board.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
99
The Regulation aims to ensure the Company’s compliance with the applicable legislative and regulatory framework governing its
operations, as well as the orderly and lawful functioning of its corporate bodies and processes. In this context, it contributes to
risk management, enhances transparency and safeguards the effective operation of the Company’s corporategovernance
mechanisms.
Whistleblowing Policy
The Group’s Whistleblowing Policy provides a safe and confidential channel for reporting incidents of unethical conduct,
irregularities or violations of laws, regulations or corporate policies. Reports can be submitted without fear of retaliation, as the
Company ensures strict confidentiality and the protection of individuals who file a complaint. Through this policy, Autohellas
encourages the immediate reporting of any concern, with the aim of reinforcing its values and cultivating a culture of responsibility
and trust.
All employees and stakeholders are expected to adhere to the principles outlined in the Group’s policies, supporting a culture of
integrity and trust. All policies are accessible to stakeholders through the Company’s website and internal communication
channels, ensuring transparency and active participation. Responsibility for their implementation lies with the Board of Directors.
Furthermore, to ensure stakeholders remain fully informed, beyond training sessions, seminars and activityspecific informational
material, Autohellas maintains a dedicated Risk and Compliance Management Unit that provides continuous support, guidance
and updates, ensuring effective application and understanding of its policies.
AntiMoney Laundering (AML) Policy
The Group applies an AntiMoney Laundering Policy designed to prevent moneylaundering activities and the circumvention of
international sanctions by ensuring compliance with the applicable regulatory framework. The Policy requires customer
duediligence procedures, identification and verification of customer details and beneficial ownership, checks against
international sanctions lists and transactionmonitoring mechanisms to detect suspicious activity, supported by procedures for
recordkeeping and employeetraining programmes.
The Policy applies to the parent Company and its subsidiaries in Greece and abroad, covering activities and customer transactions
within the business relationship and applying to employees involved in initiating or monitoring such transactions.
Responsibility for implementing and overseeing the Policy is assigned to the Group’s AntiMoney Laundering and Sanctions
Compliance Officer (the “Compliance Officer”), who holds full responsibility for the relevant programme and monitors the
Company’s and its subsidiaries’ compliance with the applicable obligations.
Board of Directors and Executive Training Policy
The Company implements a training policy for members of the Board of Directors, senior executives and other key personnel, in
accordance with the provisions of Law 4706/2020, Law 4548/2018 and the Corporate Governance Code it follows. The objective
of the Policy is to support the effective performance of duties by Board members and executives through continuous development
of knowledge and skills related to the Company’s operations and the regulatory framework governing them. Training sessions are
carried out on a regular basisunder an annual training plan approved by the Board of Directorsas well as on an adhoc basis
when needs arise due to legislative changes, the introduction of new services or findings from internalaudit reviews.
The Policy applies to members of the Board of Directors, senior executives and other Company personnel. Responsibility for
implementing the training policy lies with the Human Resources Department, which designs and delivers the relevant training
plan. The Board’s Candidacy and Remuneration Committee supports the process by assessing Board members under the Suitability
Policy and informing the Human Resources Department when additional knowledge or skill enhancement is required, so that the
appropriate training programme can be designed.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
100
For the Head of the Internal Audit Unit and the Head of the Risk Management and Regulatory Compliance Unit, training needs are
determined with the support of the Audit Committee. The full text of the training policy is included in Annex II of the Company’s
Internal Regulation of Operation.
To ensure that all internal stakeholders are fully informed about the above policies, Autohellas has established a comprehensive
training programme aimed at cultivating a strong ethical culture within the organisation. The Company provides training on
business conduct to all employees, with particular emphasis on anticorruption, antibribery, conflicts of interest and compliance
with legislative and regulatory requirements. Newly hired employees are required to complete the training during their
onboarding process in order to understand the Company’s ethical standards from the outset. In addition, refresher training is
conducted whenever necessary to ensure that stakeholders remain informed about the latest legal developments, Company
policies and best practices. Training is tailored to different audiences, with senior management receiving more specialised content
relating to governance, risk management and oversight of ethical practices.
The Company also applies additional controls and monitoring systems in these highrisk areas in order to mitigate potential ethical
risks and ensure compliance with internal policies and external legislation. Autohellas has established clear procedures for
investigating incidents involving violations of business conduct, including cases of corruption and bribery. Investigations are
conducted independently of the management hierarchy to ensure impartiality. The Group regularly assesses its corporate culture,
integrating feedback from employees, governance assessments and compliance audits to strengthen ethical practices.
The Company has also established a structured process for reporting, investigating and addressing incidents of unlawful or
policyviolating behaviour. A whistleblowing platform is available, enabling both identified and anonymous reports. In compliance
with Directive (EU) 2019/1937, Autohellas protects whistleblowers from retaliation, ensuring that reports are handled
confidentially and investigated impartially.
Although Autohellas operates in a sector where animalwelfare issues are not applicable, the Company acknowledges the related
disclosure requirement and confirms that it does not currently maintain any specific policies on this matter. Should future activities
require such policies, the Company will take appropriate steps to ensure compliance.
iii. Anti-Bribery and AntiCorruption
Operating under a Code of Conduct that sets high ethical standards and expectations, Autohellas has formally established and
implemented an AntiBribery and AntiCorruption Policy, which is communicated in detail to all stakeholders. This policy is aligned
with the principles of the United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC), as further outlined above, and strictly prohibits
all forms of corruption, including bribery, money laundering and extortion, reinforcing the Company’s commitment to the highest
standards of business ethics.
To ensure the effectiveness of the policy, Autohellas has adopted a robust framework that includes regular training programmes
aimed at raising awareness of anticorruption legislation and corporate ethical principles. In addition to adhoc training provided
to all personnel, all newly hired employees must attend relevant training during their onboarding to understand Autohellas’
zerotolerance policy towards corruption and bribery from the outset. The training programme covers critical areas such as
identifying and preventing incidents of corruption and bribery, understanding legal requirements, the importance of transparency
in business activities, the consequences of noncompliance and the available channels for reporting potential incidents. For
members of the administrative, managerial and supervisory bodies, the training is even more extensive, focusing on their distinct
roles and responsibilities regarding compliance oversight and management of ethical risks throughout the organisation. This
process is facilitated through the Board Training Policy. These specialised training sessions also cover topics such as strategic
oversight of ethical practices, corporate governance and risk management, tailored to the responsibilities of the Company’s
governing bodies. The AntiBribery and AntiCorruption Policy is available to all employees through the corporate intranet.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
101
Metrics and Targets
Although the relevant policies are already in place, Autohellas is committed to continuously strengthening its anticorruption
practices. The Company’s future targets include:
Updating the AntiCorruption Policy with the aim of (i) conducting an annual review and adaptation of the relevant policies
in line with regulatory requirements and best practices, and (ii) achieving a minimum rate of internal training coverage relating
to awareness of these policies.
Further enhancement of staff training: Delivery of refresher training to employees of the Group’s Greek subsidiaries, covering
at least 50% of employees. These training sessions will be implemented within the next 12 months, with the support and
oversight of the Risk Management and Regulatory Compliance Unit.
During the year, Autohellas did not face any legal consequences related to anticorruption and antibribery legislation, with no
convictions or fines recorded. This reflects the Company’s consistent commitment to business ethics, regulatory compliance and
safeguarding corporate integrity.

iv. Political contributions and publicpolicy engagement
Autohellas Group does not engage in lobbying activities and does not provide monetary or nonmonetary political contributions
to government officials, political parties or advocacy organisations. The Company maintains a neutral position on political matters
and ensures that its business activities remain independent from undue political influence. The Board of Directors is responsible
for overseeing compliance with the Company’s politicalneutrality policy and for ensuring that no lobbying activities or political
contributions take place within Autohellas Group. Autohellas Group does not appoint individuals to its administrative,
management or supervisory bodies who have held equivalent positions in public administration within the two years preceding
their appointment, as this is not aligned with the Company’s governance practices.
The Company is not registered in the EU Transparency Register nor in any equivalent lobbying register, as it does not engage in
activities that would require such registration.
v. Responsible supplychain management
Autohellas Group applies a Supplier Evaluation Process to ensure that its suppliers comply with environmental, social and
governance (ESG) criteria. Beyond operational requirements, Autohellas assesses its suppliers based on their commitment to
ethical business practices and sustainability standards.
Autohellas Group does not maintain a formal policy specifically aimed at preventing late payments; however, it adheres to
contractual terms and prevailing industry standards when processing supplier payments. In cases of delays, the Company
communicates directly with suppliers to facilitate the timely settlement of outstanding obligations.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
102
From 1 January 2026 onwards, the relevant indicators (average invoicepayment time and the percentage of ontime payments)
will be systematically monitored and optimised through the implementation of the new ERP (back office) system, which aims to
improve efficiency and strengthen financialmanagement processes.
Up to 31.12.2025, Autohellas did not face any legal proceedings related to late payments.
vi. Governance Oversight
The Board of Directors oversees the operations of Autohellas Group and its adherence to principles of business ethics. It is
responsible for ensuring that the corporategovernance framework is aligned with international best practices, legal requirements
and stakeholder expectations.
The Company has implemented a structured Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework, which integrates corruption and
bribery risks into broader corporaterisk assessments. Riskmitigation strategies are continuously adjusted based on emerging
threats and compliance developments.
Members of the Board of Directors receive training on corporate governance, business ethics and regulatory compliance to ensure
they possess the necessary knowledge for effective oversight of the Company. In addition, Autohellas Group discloses whether
any member of the Board has held positions in the public sector within the past two years, ensuring transparency and preventing
potential conflicts of interest.
Based on the above, the report of the Certified Auditor and the annual financial statements as at 31 December 2025, we consider
that you have at your disposal all necessary information to proceed with the approval of the annual financial statements for the
financial year ended 31 December 2025, and the approval of the overall management by the Board of Directors.

D. LIMITED ASSURANCE REPORT OF CERTIFIED AUDITOR ACCOUNTANT ON THE
SUSTAINABILITY STATEMENT
© 2026 Grant Thornton Greece. All rights reserved.1
Independent Auditors Limited Assurance Report on
AUTOHELLAS TOURIST AND TRADING SΟCIÉTÉ
ANONYME Sustainability Statement
To the Shareholders of AUTOHELLAS TOURIST AND TRADING SΟCIÉTÉ ANONYME
We have conducted a limited assurance engagement on the consolidated Sustainability Statement of AUTOHELLAS
TOURIST AND TRADING SΟCIÉTÉ ANONYME (hereinafter the “Company” and/or "Group"), included in section
"Sustainability Report" of the Management Report (hereinafter the “Sustainability Report”), for the period from 01.01.2025
to 31.12.2025.
Limited assurance conclusion
Based on the procedures performed, as described below in the paragraph "Scope of Work Performed", and the evidence
obtained, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that:
the Sustainability Statement has not been prepared in all material respects, in accordance with Article 154 of Law
4548/2018 as amended and effective by Law 5164/2024, which transposed Article 29(a) of EU Directive
2013/34/EU into the Greek legislation.
the Sustainability Statement does not comply with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (hereinafter
“ESRS”), in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2023/2772 of the Commission of July 31, 2023 and Directive (EU)
2022/2464 of the European Parliament and the Council of December 14, 2022
the process followed by the Company to identify and assess of material risks and opportunities (the "Process"), as
set out in the Note of the Sustainability Report, does not comply with "Impact, Risk, and Opportunity Management"
of ESRS 2 "General Disclosures"
the disclosures in section "Disclosures according to EU Taxonomy" of the Sustainability Statement do not comply
with Article 8 of EU Regulation 2020/852.
Basis for the conclusion
The limited assurance engagement was conducted in accordance with International Standard on Assurance Engagements
3000 (Revised), “Assurance Engagements Other Than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information” (hereinafter
“ISAE 3000”).
The procedures in a limited assurance engagement vary in nature and timing from, and are less in extent than for, a
reasonable assurance engagement. Consequently, the level of assurance obtained in a limited assurance engagement is
substantially lower than the assurance that would have been obtained had a reasonable assurance engagement been
performed.
Our responsibilities are further described in the section “Auditor’s Responsibilities”.
© 2026 Grant Thornton Greece. All rights reserved. 2
Professional Ethics and Quality Management
We are independent of the Company, throughout this engagement and have complied with the requirements of the Code of
Ethics for Professional Accountants of the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA Code), the ethics
and independence requirements of Law 4449/2017 and EU Regulation 537/2014.
Our auditing firm applies the International Standard on Quality Management 1 (ISQM1) "Quality Management for Audit Firms
that Perform Audits or Reviews of Financial Statements, or Other Assurance or Related Services Engagements" and
therefore maintains a comprehensive quality management system that includes documented policies and procedures
regarding compliance with ethical requirements, professional standards and applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion.
Responsibilities of the Group’s Management for the Sustainability Report
The Company’s Management is responsible for the design and the implementation of an appropriate process to determine
the required information to be included in the Sustainability Statement in accordance with the ESRS, as well as for the
disclosure of the process in section “Sustainability Governance” in the Sustainability Report.
More specifically, this responsibility includes:
Obtaining an understanding of the context in which the Company’s and the Group's activities and business
relationships take place and understanding the affected stakeholders.
Identifying the actual and potential impacts (both negative and positive) related to sustainability matters, as well as
the risks and opportunities that affect, or could reasonably be expected to affect, the Company’s and the Group's
financial position, financial performance, cash flows, access to funding or cost of capital in the short, medium or
long term.
Assessing the materiality of the identified impacts, risks and opportunities related to sustainability matters through
the selection and application of appropriate thresholds; and
Formulating assumptions that are reasonable under the circumstances.
The Company’s and the Group’s Management is further responsible for the preparation of the Sustainability Report, in
accordance with Article 154 of Law 4548/2018, as amended and in force by Law 5164/2024, which transposed Article 29(a)
of the EU Directive 2013/34 into the Greek Legislation.
In this context, the Company’s and the Group’s Management is responsible for:
Compliance of the Sustainability Statement with the ESRS
Preparing the disclosures in Section "Disclosures according to EU Taxonomy” of the Sustainability Report, in
compliance with the requirements of Article 8 of EU Regulation 2020/852.
Designing and implementing such internal control procedures as Management determines are necessary to ensure
that the Sustainability Statement is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and
Selecting and implementing appropriate reporting methods, including assumptions and estimates about individual
disclosures in the Sustainability Statement that have been evaluated as reasonable under the circumstances.
The Company’s Audit Committee is responsible for supervising the process of the preparation of the Company's
Sustainability Report.
Inherent limitations in preparing the Sustainability Report
As mentioned in Note to the Sustainability Statement " "Methodologies and Assumptions Applied in Identifying
Impacts, Risks, and Opportunities", the data used are derived from customers or counterparties and include estimates
from third-party providers or sector-average values. The assumptions are based on historical performance data,
predictive models, and scenario analysis to forecast future trends and potential regulatory developments. These
estimates are based on recognized frameworks available at the time of the analysis, however, there is a high level of
uncertainty due to limitations in methodologies and data, as well as the dependence of the measurements on third-
party data.
© 2026 Grant Thornton Greece. All rights reserved. 3
In reporting forward-looking information under ESRS, the Group’s Management is required to prepare forward-looking
information based on disclosed assumptions regarding future events and possible future actions of the Group. The
actual outcome of these actions may be different, as anticipated events do not often occur as expected.
Additionally, the Section " Climate Change Mitigation" of the Sustainability Statement, includes information related to
the processes for assessing material climate-related impacts, risks, and opportunities, as well as their interaction with
the strategy and business model.
Our assignment covered the items listed in the "Scope of Work Performed" section to obtain limited assurance based
on the procedures included in the Program. Our assignment does not constitute an audit or review of historical
financial information in accordance with applicable International Standards on Auditing or International Standards on
Assurance Engagements, and therefore we do not express any assurance other than that set out in the "Scope of
Work Performed" section.
Auditors Responsibilities
This limited assurance report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Article 154C of Law 4548/2018
and Article 32A of Law 4449/2017.
Our responsibility is to prepare and perform the limited assurance engagement to obtain limited assurance as to
whether the Sustainability Statement is free from material misstatement, due to fraud or error, and to issue a limited
assurance report that includes our conclusion. An error may arise from fraud or misstatement and is considered
material when, individually or in the aggregate, it could reasonably be expected to affect the financial decisions of
users made on the basis of the Sustainability Statement taken as a whole.
In the context of a limited assurance engagement in accordance with ISAE 3000 (Revised), we exercise professional
judgment and maintain our professional scepticism throughout the engagement.
Our responsibilities with respect to the Sustainability Report, in relation to the Process, include:
Conducting risk assessment procedures, including an understanding of the relevant internal control
procedures, to identify risks related to whether the Process followed by the Group to determine the
information reported in the Sustainability Statement does not meet the applicable requirements of the ESRS,
but not for the purpose of providing a conclusion regarding the effectiveness of the internal controls on the
Process; and
Preparing and conducting procedures to assess whether the Process to identify the information reported in
the Sustainability Statement is consistent with the description of the Process as disclosed in Section “Impact,
Risk and Opportunity Management [ESRS 2 IRO-1] και [ESRS2 SBM-3]” of the Report.
We are further responsible for:
Conducting risk assessment procedures, including an understanding of the relevant internal controls, to
identify those disclosures that may be materially misstated, whether due to fraud or error, but not for the
purpose of expressing a conclusion regarding the effectiveness of the Group's internal controls.
Preparing and conducting procedures related to those disclosures of the Sustainability Report, in which a
material error is likely to occur. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher
than that resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentation or the deviation from the internal controls.

Scope of Work Performed
Our engagement includes performing procedures and obtaining assurance evidence for the purpose of forming a
limited assurance conclusion and covers only the limited assurance procedures set out in the assurance programme
issued by the 22.01.2025 decision of the ELTE's (hereinafter "Program"), as formulated for the purpose of issuing a
limited assurance report on the Group's Sustainability Report.
Our engagement was limited to the Greek version of the 2025 Sustainability Statement. Therefore, in the event of any
inconsistency in translation between the Greek and English versions, as far as our conclusions are concerned, the
Greek version of the Statement prevails.
Our procedures were designed to obtain a limited level of assurance on which to base our conclusion and which do
not provide all of the evidence that would be required to provide a reasonable level of assurance.

2. Summary of material accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation
These financial statements consist of the standalone financial statements of Autohellas (the “Company”) and the consolidated
financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (together “Autohellas” or the “Group”) for the year ended
31 December 2025, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as adopted by the European Union
(EU).
These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis with the exception of certain financial assets, certain
classes of property, plant and equipment and investment property which are measured at fair value. The accounting policies have
been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
2.2 New standards, amendments to standards and interpretations:
Certain new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been issued that are mandatory for periods beginning
on or after 1 January 2025. The Group’s evaluation of the effect of these new standards, amendments to standards and
interpretations is as follows.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
116
(i) Standards and Interpretations effective for the current financial year
IAS 21 ‘The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates’ (Amendments) - Lack of exchangeability (effective for annual
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025)
These amendments require companies to apply a consistent approach in assessing whether a currency can be exchanged
into another currency and, when it cannot, in determining the exchange rate to use and the disclosures to provide.
The adoption of the above amendments had no material impact on the Annual Group and Company Financial Statements.
(ii) Standards and Interpretations effective for subsequent periods
IFRS 18 ‘Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements’ (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1
January 2027)
IFRS 18 was issued in April 2024. It sets out requirements on presentation and disclosures in financial statements and
replaces IAS 1. Its objective is to make it easier for investors to compare the performance and future prospects of entities
by changing the requirements for presenting information in the primary financial statements, particularly the statement
of profit or loss. The new standard:
requires presentation of two new defined subtotals in the statement of profit or lossoperating profit and profit
before financing and income taxes.
requires disclosure of management-defined performance measuressubtotals of income and expenses not
specified by IFRS that are used in public communications to communicate management’s view of an aspect of a
company’s financial performance. To promote transparency, a company will be required to provide a
reconciliation between these measures and totals or subtotals specified by IFRS.
enhances the requirements for aggregation and disaggregation to help a company to provide useful information.
requires limited changes to the statement of cash flows to improve comparability by specifying a consistent
starting point for the indirect method of reporting cash flows from operating activities and eliminating options
for the classification of interest and dividend cash flows.
The new standard has retrospective application. It has not yet been endorsed by the EU
IFRS 19 'Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures’ and Amendments to IFRS 19 (effective for annual
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027))
IFRS 19, issued in May 2024, introduced reduced disclosure requirements for eligible subsidiaries. Eligible subsidiaries are
those which do not have public accountability (as described in a relevant paragraph in IFRS for Small and Medium-sized
Entities) and belong to a parent that prepares and publishes consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS.
These subsidiaries will continue to apply the recognition, measurement and presentation requirements in other IFRS, but
they can replace the disclosure requirements in those standards with reduced disclosure requirements. The standard is
available for adoption in consolidated, separate, or individual financial statements of eligible subsidiaries that choose to
apply it.

Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
117
Narrow scope amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosures’ (effective for annual periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2026)
These amendments issued in May 2024:
(a) clarify the date of recognition and derecognition of some financial assets and liabilities, with a new exception
for some financial liabilities settled through an electronic cash transfer system;
(b) clarify and add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal
and interest (SPPI) criterion);
(c) add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows (such as some
instruments with features linked to the achievement ESG targets); and;
(d) update the disclosures for equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income
(FVOCI).
When an entity first applies the amendments, it is not required to restate comparative information, and is only permitted
to do so if possible without the use of hindsight.
Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards Volume 11 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026)
The amendments include clarifications, simplifications, corrections and changes aimed at improving the consistency of 5
IFRS Standards namely IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments', IFRS 1 'First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting
Standards', IFRS 7 'Financial Instruments: Disclosures', IFRS 10 'Consolidated Financial Statements' and IAS 7 'Statement
of Cash Flows'. None of these are expected to have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, ‘Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent electricity’ (effective for annual periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2026)
These amendments apply only to contracts that expose an entity to variability in the underlying amount of electricity
because the source of its generation depends on uncontrollable natural conditions (such as weather) and specifically only
to the nature-dependent electricity component of these contracts (not to electricity certificates).Contracts in scope
include both contracts to buy or sell, physically or virtually, nature-dependent electricity and financial instruments that
reference such electricity. The amendments:
address how IFRS 9 ‘own-use’ requirements would apply for physical PPAs.
permit hedge accounting if these contracts are used as hedging instruments; and
add to IFRS 7 new disclosure requirements to enable investors to understand the effect of these
contracts on a company’s financial performance and cash flows.
Some of the amendments are subject to prospective application and others to retrospective application.
Narrow scope amendments to IAS 21, ‘The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Translation to a
Hyperinflationary Presentation Currency’ (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027)
The amendments are only relevant for entities that have a presentation currency of a hyperinflationary economy, and
either its own functional currency or that of its foreign operation(s) is that of a non-hyperinflationary economy.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
118
All amounts (including comparatives) are required to be translated using the closing rate at the date of the most recent
statement of financial position. In addition, there is an exception for entities with a functional and presentation currency
that is the currency of a hyperinflationary economy to not re-translate comparatives of foreign operation(s) with the
functional currency of a non-hyperinflationary economy.
The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.
The Group and the Company are assessing the potential impacts of adopting the aforementioned amendments on the Annual
Standalone and Consolidated Financial Statements.
2.3 Principles of consolidation, equity accounting and business combinations
(i) Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when
the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those
returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control
is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealised
losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies
of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated statement of profit or
loss, the statement of other comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of financial position
respectively.
(ii) Business combinations
The acquisition method of accounting is used by the Group to account for all business combinations, regardless of whether equity
instruments or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the:
fair values of the assets transferred
liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquired business
equity interests issued by the Group
fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, and
fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited
exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the
acquired entity on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share
of the acquired entity’s net identifiable assets.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
The excess of the
consideration transferred,
amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity, and
acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquired entity
over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the business acquired, the difference is recognised
directly in profit or loss as a bargain purchase.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
119
When the settlement of any part of the cash consideration is deferred, amounts payable in the future are discounted to their
present value on the swap date. The discount rate used is the incremental borrowing rate of the group, which is the rate at which
similar lending could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions. The contingent
consideration is classified as either equity or financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial liability are then remeasured at
fair value, with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.
The Group recognises non-controlling interests in an acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate
share of the net identifiable assets of the acquired entity. This decision is made on a per acquisition basis.
(iii) Associates
Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control. This is generally the case
where the Group holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity
method of accounting (see (v) below), after initially being recognised at cost.
(iv) Joint arrangements
Under IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures.
The classification depends on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor, rather than the legal structure of the joint
arrangement. The Group has assessed the nature of its joint arrangements and determined them to be joint ventures.
Interests in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method (see (v) below), after initially being recognised at cost in the
consolidated statement of financial position.
(v) Equity method
Under the equity method of accounting, the investments are initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the
Group’s share of the post-acquisition profits or losses of the investee in profit or loss, and the Group’s share of movements in
other comprehensive income of the investee in other comprehensive income. Dividends received or receivable from associates
and joint ventures are recognised as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment.
When the Group’s share of losses in an equity-accounted investment equals or exceeds its interest in the entity, including any
other unsecured long-term receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made
payments on behalf of the other entity.
Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the
Group’s interest in these entities. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment
of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of equity accounted investees have been changed where necessary to ensure
consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
The carrying amount of equity-accounted investments is tested for impairment in accordance with the policy described in 2.9
below.
The Company accounts for investments in associates and joint ventures using the historical cost method.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
120
(vi) Changes in ownership interests
Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in change of control are accounted for as equity transactions. A
movement in participation rates leads to an adjustment of controlling and non controlling interest's book value so as to reflect
the relation among the participations in the subsidiary. Any difference between the adjustment of non controlling interest and
the fair value of any consideration paid or received is recorded in a separate reserves account in equity.
When the Group ceases to consolidate or equity account for an investment because of a loss of control, joint control or significant
influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit
or loss. This fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest
as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income
in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean
that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.
If the ownership interest in a joint venture or an associate is reduced but joint control or significant influence is retained, only a
proportionate share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss where
appropriate.
The Company accounts for investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures in its standalone financial statements at cost
less impairment.
2.4 Segment reporting
The segments are determined on the basis of internal reporting to the Group’s Board of Directors (as chief operating decision
maker) which makes strategic decisions based on its assessment of performance and position of the Group.
Consequently, segment information is presented in the consolidated financial statements in respect of the Group’s car leasing and
car sales and related service activities in Greece and abroad.
2.5 Foreign currency translation
(i) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic
environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Euros
(EUR), which is Autohellas’ functional and presentation currency.
(ii) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets
and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognised in profit or loss.
Foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised on a net basis in the results in other gains/(losses) except for foreign exchange
gains or losses related to borrowings which are recognised in the results in finance costs.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
121
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date
when the fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of
the fair value gain or loss.
Exchange differences from equity securities, measured at fair value through Profit or Loss are recognised in the results, while
those from equity securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognised in Other Comprehensive
Income.
(iii) Group Companies
The results and financial position of foreign operations (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have
a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate at the date
of that statement of financial position
income and expenses for each statement of profit or loss and statement of other comprehensive income are
translated at average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the
rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the
transactions),
the resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income, and
the share capital and reserves are translated at the exchange rates in force on the dates of the transactions
When a foreign operation is sold or any borrowings forming part of the net investment are repaid, the associated exchange
differences are reclassified to profit or loss, as part of the gain or loss on sale.
2.6 Revenue recognition
Revenue represents the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and services in the ordinary
course of business of the Group.
(i) Operating lease income
Leasing income from operating lease instalments is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term, based on the total of
the contractual payments divided by the number of months of the lease term. End of contract fees may consist of fees charged to
clients for deviations from the contractual terms related to contract duration, excess of mileage and extensive wear and tear of
the vehicle. The fees are recognised upon termination of the lease contract.
(ii) Revenue from rents on buildings/land
Rental revenues are recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the rental agreement.
(iii) Finance lease & other interest income
Interest income from finance lease contracts is recognised using the effective interest method. Payments collected from the lease
are allocated between reducing the net investment in the lease and recognising interest income. Other interest income mainly
includes income from interest-bearing assets, which is recognised using the effective interest method.
(iv) Vehicles and spare parts sales
Vehicle and Spare Cars sales include revenue from the sale of new and used cars of the auto-trade sector, sales of used cars upon
termination of their lease contract and sales of new vehicle spare cars. Revenue from vehicle sales are recognised when ownership
is transferred.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
122
(v) Other services income and commissions
Additional services include fees charged for fleet management services, repair & maintenance services, damage & insurance
services, charges for car transportation and preparation services during sale, charges for the issuance of car certificates and
registration. Commissions include fees for mediating customer financing with financial institutions. Revenue from fleet
management services is recognised on a straight-line basis.
(vi) Dividends
Dividends are accounted as income, when the right to receive payment is established, in other words on the date the dividends
are declared and approved.
(vii) Revenue Recognition
The Group recognises revenue, other than revenue from car rentals recognised in accordance with IFRS 16, upon transfer of
promised goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in
exchange for those goods or services based on the following five step approach:
Step 1: Identify the contracts with customers
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract
Step 3: Determine the transaction price
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
Step 5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation
2.7 Income tax
The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable
income tax rate for each country adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences
and to unused tax losses.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the
reporting period in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries and associates operate and generate taxable income.
Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is
subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax
authorities.
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets
and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not
recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises from initial
recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects
neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted
or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset
is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
The deferred tax liability in relation to investment property that is measured at fair value is determined assuming the property
will be recovered entirely through sale.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary
differences and losses.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of
investments in foreign operations where the company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences
and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
123
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and
when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the
entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the
liability simultaneously.
Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other
comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in
equity, respectively.
2.8 Leases
(i) The Group as a lessee
The Group recognises for all leases a right-of-use asset as well as a corresponding lease liability, at the date on which the leased
asset is available for use by the Group. Each lease payment is divided between the liability and the finance cost.
Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities arising from the lease are initially measured at present value. Lease liabilities include the
net present value of the following leases:
fixed rents (including substantially fixed payments), reduced by any lease receivable
floating rates that depend on an index or interest rate, which are initially measured using the index or interest rate at the
start of the lease term
rentals related to extension rights that are likely to be exercised.
amounts expected to be paid by the group based on guaranteed residual values
price of purchase option, if it is probable that the Group will exercise that option, and
payment of a penalty for termination of the lease if the duration of the lease indicates that Group will exercise the right to
terminate the lease.
Lease payments are discounted using the interest rate included in the lease. If this rate cannot be directly determined, the
incremental borrowing rate is used, that is, the rate at which the lessee would be liable if he borrowed the necessary funds to
purchase similar asset, for a similar period, with similar collateral and in a similar economic environment.
After their initial recognition, lease liabilities are increased for financial cost and reduced by lease payments.
The cost of the right to use the asset consists of:
the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability
any rents paid at the start date of the lease period or earlier, less any incentives leases have received
any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee and
an estimate of the costs incurred by the lessee in disassembling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the premises
where it has been located or restoring the underlying asset in the condition provided by the terms and conditions of the
lease.
Right of use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease
term. When the valuation of the present value has been done under assumption that lease will exercise option to purchase
underlying asset, then the right of use is amortised over the useful life of the underlying asset.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
124
Payments related to short-term leases for all categories of assets other than airport premises and low-value leases are recognised
using the straight-line method as an expense. Short-term leases are leases of twelve months or less.
(ii) Group as lessor
Leases where substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset are not transferred to the lessee are
classified as operating leases.
Income from operating leases, where the Group is the lessor, is recognised equally over the entire lease period.
Leases where substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset are transferred to the lessee are classified
as finance leases. The Group as a lessor records a finance lease receivable at the amount of its net investment which equals the
present value of the future minimum lease payments receivable (including any guaranteed residual value by the lessee) and the
unguaranteed residual value accruing to the Group, after any accumulated impairment losses. The finance lease receivables are
presented within the caption ‘Trade and other receivables’.
Unearned finance income is the difference between the gross investment in the lease and the net investment in the lease. Over
the lease term, the instalments charged to the clients are apportioned between a reduction in the net investment in the lease and
finance lease income.
All cars under long-term and short-term operating leases are included in property, plant and equipment and rights-of-use assets.
2.9 Impairment of assets
Goodwill is not subject to amortisation and is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in
circumstances indicate that it might be impaired.
Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not
be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable
amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of
assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are
largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units).
Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the
end of each reporting period.
2.10 Cash and cash equivalents
For presentation purposes in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash, demand deposits and other
highly liquid short-term investments with maturities of up to three months, which can be immediately converted into specified
amounts of cash and which are subject to immaterial risk of change in their value
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
125
2.11 Trade receivables
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. They
are generally due for settlement within 30 days and therefore are all classified as current. Trade receivables are recognised initially
at the amount of consideration that is unconditional unless they contain significant financing components, when they are
recognised at fair value. The Group holds the trade receivables with the objective to collect the contractual cash flows and
therefore measures them subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method, less loss allowance. See note 4.1 for a description of the Group’s impairment policies.
2.12 Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs are assigned to new and used cars on the basis of their
individual cost while costs are assigned to spare parts on the basis of weighted average costs. Net realisable value is the estimated
selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
2.13 Investments and other financial assets
(i) Classification
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI or through profit or loss), and
• those to be measured at amortised cost.
Financial assets with embedded derivatives are treated as a whole for SPPI testing and classification purposes (Solely Payments of
Principal and Interest) on the principal amount outstanding.
The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash
flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. For
investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Group has made an irrevocable
election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income
(FVOCI).
The Group reclassifies debt instruments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.
(ii) Recognition and derecognition
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date, the date on which the Group commits to
purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have
expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
126
(iii) Measurement
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value
through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction
costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in profit or loss.
(a) Debt instruments
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Group’s business model for managing the asset and the cash flow
characteristics of the asset. The Group measures its debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income or
through profit or loss. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate
method.
(b) Equity instruments
The Group subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value. Where the Group’s management has elected to present
fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair
value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such investments continue
to be recognised in profit or loss as other income when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in other gains/(losses) in profit or
loss as applicable. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at fair value through
other comprehensive income are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.
Details on how the fair value of financial instruments is determined are disclosed in note Error! Reference source not found.
(iv) Impairment
For investments in debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the Group determines the
impairment loss against expected credit losses. The relevant methodology depends on whether there is a significant increase in
credit risk.
For trade receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to
be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. See note 4.1 for further details.
2.14 Property, plant and equipment
Land and buildings are recognised at fair value based on periodic valuations, every 1 to 2 years, by external independent valuers,
less subsequent depreciation for buildings. A revaluation surplus is credited to fair value reserves in shareholders’ equity. All other
property, plant and equipment is recognised at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly
attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is
probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured
reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs
and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
127
Increases in the carrying amounts arising on revaluation of land and buildings are recognised, net of tax, in other comprehensive
income and accumulated in reserves in shareholders’ equity. To the extent that the increase reverses a decrease previously
recognised in profit or loss, the increase is first recognised in profit or loss. Decreases that reverse previous increases of the same
asset are first recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent of the remaining surplus attributable to the asset; all other
decreases are charged to profit or loss.
Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on the remaining property, plant & equipment categories is calculated using the straight-
line method to allocate their cost or revalued amounts, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives as follows:
Estimated Asset category useful lives Buildings 20 - 25 years Machinery 6 years Vehicles 6 - 8 years Furniture, fittings and equipment 10 years IT equipment 5 years
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than
its estimated recoverable amount (note 2.9).
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in profit or loss.
When revalued assets are sold, the Group transfers any amounts included in other reserves in respect of those assets to retained
earnings.
2.15 Investment property
Property that is held for long-term rental yields or for capital appreciation or both, and that is not occupied by the Group, is
classified as investment property. In its standalone financial statements, the Company classifies all land and buildings rented to
subsidiaries as investment property. Investment properties consist of land and buildings that are rented either to subsidiaries and
related parties of the Group or to third parties.
Investment property is measured initially at cost. After initial recognition, investment property is carried at fair value.
2.16 Intangible assets
(i) Goodwill
Goodwill is measured as described in note 2.3. Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill is
not amortised but it is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it
might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include
the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.
Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to those cash-
generating units or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the
goodwill arose. The units or groups of units are identified at the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal
management purposes, being the operating segments as presented in note 11.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
128
(ii) Acquired software
Acquired software is recognised at cost less depreciation and any impairments. They are depreciated using the straight-line
method over their estimated useful lives of 10 - 20 years.
(iii) Franchise agreement
The trademark franchise agreement concerns the commercial cooperation between the licensor and the licensee and is recognised
in the intangible assets at present value. It is then amortised using the straight-line method over the term of the contract.
2.17 Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial year which are
unpaid. The amounts are usually paid within 6 months of recognition. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities
unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognised initially at their fair value and
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2.18 Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at
amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit
or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
Borrowings are derecognised from the statement of financial position when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged,
cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred
to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit
or loss as finance costs.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at
least 12 months after the reporting period.
2.19 Employee benefits
(i) Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the
employees render the related service are recognised in respect of employees’ services up to the end of the reporting period and
are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented within other
payables in the statement of financial position.
(ii) Post-employment obligations
Post-employment obligations are related with defined benefit and defined contribution pension plans.
The liability or asset recognised in the statement of financial position in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present
value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by
independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest
rates of high-quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms
approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
129
The interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the balance of the defined benefit obligation. This cost is included
in employee benefit expense in the profit or loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the
period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of
changes in equity and in the statement of financial position.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised
immediately in profit or loss as past service costs.
For defined contribution plans, the Group pays contributions to publicly or privately administered pension insurance plans on a
mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid.
The contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an
asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.
(iii) Termination benefits
Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Group before the normal retirement date, or when an
employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group recognises termination benefits at the earlier
of the following dates: (a) when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the entity recognises
costs for a restructuring that is within the scope of IAS 37 and involves the payment of terminations benefits. In the case of an
offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number of employees
expected to accept the offer. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are discounted to
present value.
2.20 Share capital
Share capital comprises the ordinary shares of the Company. Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly
attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
Where the Company reacquires its own equity instruments ('treasury shares'), the consideration paid, including any directly
attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted from equity attributable to the Company’s equity holders as
treasury shares until the shares are cancelled or reissued. Where such ordinary shares are subsequently reissued, any
consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and the related income tax effects, is
included in equity attributable to the Company’s equity holders.
2.21 Dividend distribution
Dividend distribution to the Company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the Group’s financial statements in the period
in which the dividends are approved by the General Meeting of the shareholders.
2.22 Earnings per share
(i) Basic earnings per shares
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to owners of the Company by the weighted average
number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year excluding treasury shares.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
130
(ii) Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares, and
the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion
of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
2.23 Rounding of amounts
All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest currency unit unless otherwise
stated.
2.24 Provisions
Provisions for legal claims, service warranties and make good obligations are recognised when the group has a present legal or
constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation,
and the amount can be reliably estimated.
Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an
outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised
even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.
2.25 Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date of entering into a derivative contract and then remeasured at fair value
at the end of each accounting period. Accounting for subsequent changes in fair value depends on whether the derivative is
designated as a hedging instrument and, if so, the nature of the item being hedged. The group identifies certain derivatives as an
interest rate hedge related to the cash flows of the recognised loans (cash flow hedge). At the inception of the hedging
relationship, the group documents the financial relationship between the hedging instruments and the hedged items, including
whether the changes in the cash flows of the hedging instruments are expected to offset the changes in the cash flows of the
hedged items. The group documents the scope of its risk management and strategy for undertaking hedging transactions. The fair
values of derivative financial instruments specified in hedging relationships are disclosed in note 17. The movements of the
hedging reserve in equity are shown in note 22.
(i) Derivatives that meet the hedging requirements
The effective part of the changes in fair value of derivatives that are designated and characterised as accounting cash flow hedges
is recognised under cash flow hedge reserve in equity. The profit or loss relating to the ineffective part is recognised immediately
under profit or loss in “Other gains/(losses) - net”.
The amounts accumulated in equity are reclassified in periods when the hedged item affects profits or losses. Profits or losses
related to the effective part of interest rate swaps that offset the floating rate loans are recognised in the results under financial
expenses at the same time as the interest expense of the hedged loans.
When a hedging instrument expires or is sold or terminated, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting,
any accumulated deferred gain or loss has been recognised in equity at that time remains in equity until the respective hedged
cash flows affect profit or loss.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
131
In addition, if the cash flows of the hedged items are no longer expected to rise, the accumulated profit or loss that has been
recognised in equity is reclassified immediately under profit or loss.
(ii) Derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting
Certain derivative instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of any derivative instrument that
does not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised immediately in the profit or loss statement and are included under Other
gains/(losses).
2.26 Assets held for sale
Noncurrent assets or disposal groups are classified as held for sale when it is highly probable that they will be recovered primarily
through a sale transaction and not through continued use. These assets are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and
their fair value less costs to sell, except for assets such as deferred tax assets, assets arising from employee benefits, financial
assets, and investment property measured at fair value, as well as groups of insurance contracts within the scope of IFRS 17
Insurance Contracts, which are explicitly excluded from this requirement.
Impairment losses are recognised for any initial or subsequent decrease in the fair value less costs to sell of the asset (or disposal
group). Subsequent gains are recognised for any later increases in the fair value less costs to sell of an asset (or disposal group),
but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss previously recognised. A gain or loss not previously recognised up to the date
of sale of the noncurrent asset (or disposal group) is recognised on the date of derecognition.
Noncurrent assets (including those forming part of a disposal group) are not depreciated while they are classified as held for sale.
Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale continue to be recognized.
Noncurrent assets classified as held for sale and the assets of a disposal group classified as held for sale are presented separately
from other assets in the Statement of Financial Position. The liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale are presented
separately from other liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
132
3. Critical estimates, judgements and errors
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the use of certain significant accounting estimates and
the exercise of judgment by Management in the process of applying the accounting principles. It also requires the use of
calculations and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent claims and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements, and the amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Although these
calculations are based on management's best knowledge of current conditions and activities, actual results may ultimately differ
from these calculations. Areas involving complex transactions involving a high degree of subjectivity or assumptions and estimates
that are material to the financial statements are noted below.
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including
expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances.
This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which are
more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be wrong.
(i) Estimation of current tax payable and current tax expense
The Group is subject to income taxes in various jurisdictions. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate
tax determination cannot be assessed with certainty in the ordinary course of business. The Group recognises a provision for
potential cases that might arise in the foreseeable future based on assessment of the probabilities as to whether additional taxes
will be due. Where the final tax outcome on these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such
differences will impact the income tax provision in the period in which such determination is made.
(ii) Estimated goodwill impairment
The Group tests whether goodwill has suffered any impairment on an annual basis. The recoverable amount of the cash generating
units (CGUs) is determined based on value-in-use calculations which require the use of assumptions. The calculations use cash
flow projections based on financial budgets approved by management covering a five-year period. Cash flows beyond the five-
year period are extrapolated using estimated growth rates that are consistent with forecasts specific to the industry in which each
CGU operates. The sensitivity to estimates and assumptions used is presented in note 11.
(iii) Estimation of pension benefit obligation
The Group provides pension benefit plans as an employee benefit in certain territories. Determining the value of these plans
requires several actuarial assumptions and estimates about discount rates, future salary increases and future pension increases.
Due to the long-term nature of these plans, such estimates are subject to significant uncertainty.
(iv) Useful lives and residual values of vehicles
Vehicles are depreciated over their estimated useful lives based on their estimated residual values. These estimates are reviewed
taking into account relevant market related factors. Given market volatility and the large number of different vehicles, the
estimation of the residual values involves a high degree of judgement. A change in these accounting estimates leads to a change
in depreciation which will have an effect in the current period and/or is expected to have an impact in subsequent periods.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
133
(v) Estimation of fair values of land and buildings and investment property
The Group assigns independent valuations of investment property, land and buildings which are classified as tangible assets in
order to determine their fair value.
Fair value is based on active market prices, adjusted if necessary, for differences in the nature, geography or status of the specific
asset. If this information is not available, the Group applies alternative valuation methods, such as recent prices in less active
markets or discounted cash flow projections. Valuations are performed by professional appraisers possessing recognised and
relevant professional qualifications and have recent experience in the geographic location and in the category of the investment
properties under valuation.
Disclosures relating to the determination of fair values and the valuation techniques used are presented in note 5.
(vi) Impairment of financial assets
The loss allowances for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Group uses
judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the Group’s past history,
existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period. Details of the key assumptions
and inputs used are disclosed in note 4.1.
(vii) Impairment of investments in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiaries are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying
amount may not be recoverable, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 2.9.
(viii) Business combinations
On the acquisition of a company or business, a determination of the fair value and the useful lives of tangible and intangible
assets acquired is performed, which requires the application of judgement. Future events could cause the assumptions used by
the Group to change which could have an impact on the results and net position of the Group. Further information on business
combination is given in note 2.3 and note 12.
4. Financial risk management
4.1 Financial risk factors
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign currency risk, cash flow and fair value
interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the
volatility of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s cash flows.
The Group’s risk management is predominantly controlled by a central treasury department (group treasury) under policies
approved by the Board of Directors. Group treasury identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the
Group’s operating units. The board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific
areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative
financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
134
(i) Market risk
(a) Foreign exchange risk
The Group is exposed to the effect of foreign currency risk on future transactions, recognised monetary assets and liabilities that
are denominated in currencies other than the local entity’s functional currency, as well as net investments in foreign operations.
The Group, via its subsidiaries, is operating in Portugal, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Romania, the Republic of Serbia, Montenegro, Croatia
and Ukraine. The existing operations of the Group abroad refer both in short-term and long-term leases of cars. Due to these
operations, the Group transacts with clients and suppliers and holds assets and liabilities which are expressed in different
currencies than the Euro, which is the reporting currency of the Group. More specifically, the Group’s subsidiaries in Romania, the
Republic of Serbia, Croatia and Ukraine have liabilities/assets in RON, RSD, HRK and UAH respectively. However, these subsidiaries
do not expose the Group to a material exchange rate risk due to their size and the currencies that they use.
(b) Cash flow risk due to changes in interest rates
The cost of borrowing is based on floating interest rates, which expose the Group to cash flow risk due to interest rate fluctuations.
In 2025, 51.9% of the Group's bank borrowings and 45.4% of the Company's bank borrowings are at floating interest rates. The
change is due to the replacement during the year of floating rate borrowings with fixed rate borrowings, aiming to reduce the
Group's exposure to interest rate fluctuations. More details are provided in note 25. In previous years, to hedge against interest
rate risk, the Group had entered into interest rate swap agreements applying hedge accounting. More details are provided in note
17.
The Group's and the Company's overall exposure to changes in interest rates comes from financing through bank borrowing,
finance leases and securitisation of receivables and amounts at the end of the reference period to:
Group Company 31.12.2025 31.12.2024 31.12.2025 31.12.2024 Total financing 886,446,906 786,199,446 764,497,916 668,192,468
Sensitivity analysis of floating interest rates
The results of the Group and the Company are affected by fluctuations in interest income from cash and cash equivalents and in

The accounting policy for interest rate risk hedging is described in note 2.25.
(c) Price risk
The Group’s exposure to equity securities price risk arises from investments held by the Group and classified in the statement of
financial position either as at fair value through other comprehensive income (note 15) or at fair value through profit or loss (note
16).
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
135
The Group’s equity investments that are publicly traded on the Athens Stock Exchange are classified as at fair value through other
comprehensive income.
(ii) Credit risk
(a) Risk management
Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, as well as credit exposures to wholesale and retail customers, including
outstanding receivables.
If wholesale customers are independently rated, these ratings are used. Otherwise, if there is no independent rating, credit control
assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors. Individual
risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the board. Compliance with credit limits by
wholesale customers is regularly monitored by line management.
There is no significant concentration of credit risk. Sales to retail customers are required to be settled in cash or using major credit
cards, mitigating credit risk. Wholesale operations are conducted after the assessment of the credit-worthiness of the
counterparty, while in most cases, guarantees are received. At the same time, the Company and its subsidiaries continuously
monitor the aging of their claims and take necessary action, as the case may be. Cash and cash equivalents of the company and
its Greek subsidiaries, that represent around 80% of the Group’s total cash and cash equivalents are invested in Greek systemic
financial institutions. As far as foreign subsidiaries are concerned, cash and cash equivalents are invested mainly to local
subsidiaries of international, investment-grade, financial institutions with high credit ratings. Cash and cash equivalents are
invested in for short-term. Potential credit risk is also present in the Group's cash flows. Additionally, in most of these cases, the
Group has debt obligations of a higher amount.
(b) Security of claims
For the majority of trade receivables from wholesale customers, the Group obtains security in the form of guarantees which can
be offset with the claimed amounts if the counterparty is in default under the terms of the agreement.
(c) Impairment of financial assets
The Group has the following types of financial assets that are subject to the expected credit loss model:
Trade receivables
•Finance lease receivables
While cash and cash equivalents are also subject to the impairment requirements of IFRS 9, the identified impairment loss was
immaterial.
Trade receivables and lease receivables
The Group applies the simplified approach of IFRS 9 for the calculation of expected credit losses, in which an expected loss
provision is used for the entire life of trade receivables and finance lease receivables.
Expected loss rates are based on the sales payment profile for a 12-month period prior to 31 December 2025 and the
corresponding historical credit losses incurred during that period. Historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and future
information about macroeconomic factors affecting customers' ability to repay their obligations.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
136
Based on the above, the loss provision for the Group and the Company was determined as follows for both trade receivables and
car lease receivables:
Group 31.12.2025 31.12.2024 Expected Gross carrying Expected Gross carrying Note loss rate amount loss rate amount Current 0.68% 135,675,440 1.35% 115,067,200 More than 30 days past due 14.37% 3,694,718 20.50% 2,754,162 More than 60 days past due 23.44% 1,168,779 37.27% 855,034 More than 90 days past due 36.81% 486,318 50.02% 465,240 More than 120 days past due 91.20% 8,051,857 88.34% 7,855,745 Total trade receivables 18 6.21% 149,077,112 7.57% 126,997,381 Loss allowance 18 9,251,546 9,608,086

The loss allowances movement for trade and lease receivables reconcile is as follows:
Group Company 2025 2024 2025 2024 Balance at the beginning of the year 9,608,086 9,786,688 2,283,286 2,481,236 Increase in loss allowance recognised in profit or 707,687 626,286 - - loss during the year Write-off of loss allowance on receivables deemed (562,358) (544,896) (347,450) (197,950) irrecoverable Unused amount reversed (478,845) (260,198) - - Exchange differences (23,024) 206 - - Balance at the end of the year 9,251,546 9,608,086 1,935,836 2,283,286
Trade receivables and lease receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there
is no reasonable expectation of recovery include, amongst others, the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan with the
Group, and a failure to make contractual payments for a reasonable period of time.
Impairment losses on trade receivables and lease receivables are presented as net impairment losses within operating profit.
Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the same line item.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
137
Other financial assets at amortised cost
There are no other financial assets at amortised cost which include loans to related parties and key management personnel and
other receivables.
(iii) Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding
through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. At
the end of the reporting period the Group held deposits at call of 96,709,493 (2024 - 97,817,080) that are expected to readily
generate cash inflows for managing liquidity risk. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, the Group maintains
flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. In addition, the Company through Securitisation of
Future Receivables has assured the financing for the purchase of long-term lease vehicles.
(a) Financing arrangements
The Group and the Company had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting period:
Group Company 2025 2024 2025 2024 Unused bank credit lines 374,122,652 340,407,121 184,424,394 248,552,234
The bank overdraft facilities may be drawn at any time and may be terminated by the bank without notice, while the bank loan
facilities may be drawn at any time and have an average maturity of 3 5 years.
(b) Maturities of financial liabilities
The tables below analyse the Group’s and the Company’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their
contractual maturities. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12
months equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant.
Maturity of borrowings in fair value, including interest, as of 31.12.2025 and 2024 for the Company and the Group is as follows:

4.2 Capital management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to:
safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and
benefits for other stakeholders, and
maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return
capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt
In consistency with market practices, the Group monitors capital on the basis of the following gearing ratio:
Net debt (as the difference between cash and cash equivalents and borrowings, including finance lease liabilities and
securitisation)
divided by
Total “Equity” (as shown in the statement of financial position, including non-controlling interests)
During 2025, the Group’s strategy was to maintain a gearing ratio within 1 to 2 for both the Group and the Company. The gearing
ratios at 31 December 2025 and 31 December 2024 were as follows:

Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
139
(a) Loan covenants
Under the terms of the major borrowing facilities, the Group is required to comply with the following financial covenants:
Net Debt to Equity
Net Debt to Earnings before tax, financing & investing activities, depreciation & amortisation (EBITDA)
Earnings before tax, financing & investing activities (EBIT) to Net Interest Costs
Total Liabilities less Cash and cash equivalents to Equity
The Group is in compliance with these covenants throughout the reporting period.
(b) Externally imposed capital requirements regarding equity
There are certain limitations regarding equity, deriving from current Societe Anonyme legislation and in particular from Law
4548/2018. The limitations are as follows:
The purchase of own shares - with the exception of purchasing shares with sole purpose to be distributed among its´
employees - cannot exceed 10% of the company’s share capital and cannot result in the reduction of equity to an amount less
than the amount of the share capital increased by the reserves, for which distribution is forbidden by law.
In case total equity of the Company becomes less than half (1/2) of the capital, the Board of Directors is obliged to convene
the general meeting, within a period of six (6) months from the end of the year, on the dissolution of the company or the
adoption of another measure. The auditors of the Company have the same obligation, if the Board of Directors does not
convene within the above deadline.
Annually, at least 1/20th of the company’s net profit is deducted to form a statutory reserve, which will be used exclusively
to balance, prior to any dividend distribution, the debit balance in Income Statement. Forming such a reserve is not obligatory,
once it reaches 1/3rd of the company’s share capital.
The payment of an annual dividend to shareholders in cash, at an amount equal to at least 35% of the company’s net earnings,
after deducting the statutory reserve and the net result from the valuation of the company’s assets and liabilities at fair value,
is obligatory. The above does not apply if the general assembly decides it by a majority of at least 65% of the paid-up share
capital. In this case, dividend that hasn’t been distributed and up to an amount equal to 35% of the above mentioned net
earnings, has to be reported as a “Reserve to be Capitalised”, within 4 years’ time by an issue of new shares, given to eligible
shareholders. Finally, a general shareholders meeting can decide not to distribute dividend, if it is decided by a majority of
over 70% of the paid-up share capital.
The Company is in compliance with all obligations deriving from all relevant provisions and regulations relating to equity.

5. Fair value hierarchy
To determine the reliability of the data used to determine fair value, the Group has classified non-financial and financial assets
and liabilities measured at fair value into the three levels of the IFRS 13 hierarchy. A description of each level is provided below .
Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the end of the
reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These
instruments are included in level 1.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques
which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant
inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.
The Group has classified its financial instruments in the aforementioned 3 levels as follows:
31 December 2025 Note Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income Listed equity securities 15 186,223,310 - - 186,223,310 Listed debt securities 15 4,973,776 - - 4,973,776 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Unlisted equity securities 16 - - 2,123,527 2,123,527 191,197,086 - 2,123,527 193,320,613 31 December 2024 Note Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income Listed equity securities 15 132,087,704 - - 132,087,704 Listed debt securities 15 2,159,653 - - 2,159,653 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Unlisted equity securities 16 - - 2,114,694 2,114,694 134,247,357 - 2,114,694 136,362,051
In addition as at 31.12.2025, the Group owned own-used land and buildings and investment properties measured at fair value
amounting to €107,282,112 (2024: €97,138,366) and €32,327,851 (2024: €35,738,402) respectively, classified as level 3.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
141
Valuation techniques used to determine level 3 fair values:
(i) Land & buildings and investment property
The Group obtains independent valuations for its investment properties as well as for land and buildings classified as property,
plant and equipment at least every 1 or 2 years. The last independent valuation of land and buildings was performed in January
2026 as at 31.12.2025.
At the end of each reporting period, the directors update their assessment of the fair value of each property, taking into account
the most recent independent valuations. The directors determine a property’s value within a range of reasonable fair value
estimates.
The best evidence of fair value is current prices in an active market for similar properties. Where such information is not available
the directors consider information from a variety of sources including:
the current prices in an active market for properties of different nature or recent prices of similar properties in less active
markets, adjusted to reflect those differences
the discounted cash flow projections based on reliable estimates of future cash flows
capitalised income projections based upon a property’s estimated net market income, and a capitalisation rate derived from
an analysis of market evidence
The fair value of real estate is estimated using the income approach method, the sales comparison approach, the replacement
cost method (when no comparative rentals or sales are available) and the residual value method in cases of empty lots or
calculation of building balance value.
The value of owned-used and investment properties is also estimated using the above-mentioned methods depending on the use
of the property. The value of land is calculated using the sales comparison approach, when such data exists, or using the residual
method or a combination of the two.
(ii) Unlisted securities
The value of unlisted securities is determined based on the management’s estimates of the expected future profitability of unlisted
securities, taking into consideration comparative data of similar assets.

Group 2025 2024 Balance at the beginning of the year 43,457,435 43,457,435 Acquisition of subsidiary - - Balance at the end of the year 43,457,435 43,457,435
Goodwill arises from (a) the acquisition of HYUNDAI HELLAS INDUSTRIAL & TRADING SA and KIA HELLAS INDUSTRIAL & TRADING
SA in 2017 amounting to €25,939,818, (b) the acquisition of AUTOTECHNICA FLEET SERVICES d.o.o. in Croatia in 2016 amounting
to €1,312,539, (c) DERASCO TRADING LIMITED amounting to €45,473 and (d) the acquisition of HR - ALUGUER DE AUTOMÓVEIS
S.A. in 2022 amounting to €16,159,605.
(i) Goodwill per operating segment
Goodwill is monitored by management at the level of the three operating segments presented in note 6.
31.12.2025 31.12.2024 Trade of cars - spare parts & services 25,985,291 25,985,291 International activity of car rentals and cars sales 17,472,144 17,472,144 Total goodwill 43,457,435 43,457,435
(ii) Impairment testing of goodwill
The Group tests goodwill on an annual basis, by assessing cash generating units (CGUs) for potential impairment. The recoverable
amount of CGUs was determined by value-in-use calculations that require the use of assumptions. The calculations used cash flow
forecasts based on management-approved budgets covering a period of five years. Cash flows beyond the five-year period are
calculated on the basis of the assumptions set out below, which are consistent with the forecasts for the industry in which each
CGU operates.
The basic assumptions adopted as at 31 December 2025 for the testing of goodwill arising from the acquisition of HR - ALUGUER
DE AUTOMÓVEIS S.A. are the following:
Discount rate: 6% - 8% (2024: 8% -10%)
Sales Growth Rate: 4% - 5% (2024: 3% - 5%)
Perpetuity Growth Rate: 2% (2024: 2%)
The basic assumptions adopted as at 31 December 2025 for the testing of goodwill arising from the acquisition of AUTOTECHNICA
FLEET SERVICES d.o.o. are the following:
Discount rate: 8% - 10% (2024: 8 -10%)
Sales Growth Rate: 2% - 4% (2024: 2 -4%)
Perpetuity Growth Rate: 1% (2024: 1%)
It is noted that in 2018, the year of the first full consolidation of HYUNDAI HELLAS INDUSTRIAL & TRADING SA and KIA HELLAS
INDUSTRIAL & TRADING SA after their acquisition in December 2017, the former's revenue amounted to €60.5 million with profit
before tax of €5.8 million and the latter's revenue amounted to €30.8 million with profit before tax of €1.9 million. In 2025 the
revenue of HYUNDAI HELLAS amounted to 200.9 million with profit before tax of 12.9 million and the revenue of KIA HELLAS
amounted to €99.3 million with profit before tax of €6.3 million. It is evident that the development of the 2 subsidiaries in the last
5 years is particularly important. Therefore, the assumptions under which impairment of their goodwill would arise are unrealistic.
Impairment testing as of 31 December 2025 has not resulted in an impairment of goodwill. Additionally, if the assumptions used
as at 31 December 2025 were further aggravated by 10%, the carrying value of goodwill would still not require any impairment.

(i) Statutory reserve
The statutory reserve is created under the provisions of Greek law according to which an amount of at least 5% of the profit (after
tax) for the year must be transferred to the reserve until it reaches one third of the paid share capital. The statutory reserve can
only be used with the approval of the Annual General Meeting of shareholders to offset accumulated losses and therefore cannot
be used for any other purpose.
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025
160
(ii) Special reserve
This reserve relates to special reserves from income taxed by special tax scheme formed based on special provisions of Greek tax
legislation and refers to a) earnings from sale of a non-listed company which are tax-exempted since they are not distributed. In
any other case they would not be exempted from regular tax regulation and b) dividends received.
(iii) Hedging reserve
The hedging reserve comprises the cash flow hedge reserve. The cash flow hedge reserve is used to recognise the effective portion
of gains or losses from derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, as described in note 2.25. The amounts
are then reclassified to the statement of profit or loss, as appropriate.
(iv) Other reserves
Other reserves were created from the merger of VAKAR S.A., VELMAR S.A. and TECHNOCAR S.A. In addition, Other Reserves
include exchange differences arising on translation of the foreign controlled entities are recognised in other comprehensive
income as described in note 2.5 and accumulated in a separate reserve within equity. The cumulative amount is reclassified to
profit or loss when the net investment is disposed of.
Other reserves also include the portion of the net income carried forward every year that comes from tax-free profits and profits
taxed under special provisions by using up the tax liability. The aforementioned reserves can be capitalised or distributed following
the approval of the Annual General Meeting, after taking into consideration the restrictions that may apply. In case of
capitalisation or distribution, tax is calculated at the current tax rate.
23. Dividends
According to the resolution of the Ordinary General Meeting of the Company’s shareholders held on April 8, 2025, the dividend
for the fiscal year 2024 was set at € 0.85 per share.

from participations and subsidiaries for the 2024 financial year, an amount of €2,811,559.79 derives from the Company’s annual
net profits for the 2024 financial year, and an amount of €19,188,140.58 derives from the distribution of reserves under Article
48 of the Greek Income Tax Code, as further detailed in the relevant resolutions of the Ordinary General Meeting.

(ii) Grants from Recovery and Resilience Fund
In September 2022, the Company signed its first Bond Loan Agreement under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan “Greece
2.0,” which falls within the framework of co-financing by systemic banks with the Recovery and Resilience Fund (RRF). The total
amount of the loan agreement was €136,077,485, of which €85,048,428 was covered by the RRF with a fixed interest rate from
the Fund's resources, and the remaining €51,029,057 was covered by a systemic bank with a variable contractual interest rate
(EURIBOR + margin). The proceeds of the loan are intended for the financing of zero or low-emission vehicles, specifically those
with less than 50g CO2/km.
In February 2023, the Company proceeded again with the signing of a 2nd Bond Loan agreement under the National Recovery and
Resilience Plan “Greece 2.0”, which falls within the cofinancing framework of the systemic banks with the RRF. The total amount
of the loan agreement amounts to €104,000,000, of which the amount of 65,000,000 relates to the RRF with a fixed interest rate
from the Fund’s resources, and the remaining amount of €39,000,000 relates to a systemic bank with a floating contractual interest
rate (EURIBOR + margin). The financing relates to zero or lowemission vehicles, specifically those emitting less than 50g CO2/km.
During 2025, the Company repaid the outstanding balance of this loan amounting to €4 million.
In November 2024, the Company signed its third Bond Loan Agreement under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan “Greece
2.0,” which falls within the framework of co-financing by systemic banks with the RRF. The total amount of the loan agreement
was €120,000,000, of which €75,000,000 was covered by the RRF with a fixed interest rate from the Fund's resources, and the
remaining €45,000,000 was covered by a systemic bank with a variable contractual interest rate (EURIBOR + margin). The proceeds
of the loan are intended exclusively for the financing of electric vehicles.
The total financing of the above-mentioned contracts is intended to cover the Company's purchasing needs for electric and plug-
in hybrid vehicles in the coming years.
The Company has recognised a total amount of indirect grant, relating to the renewal and expansion of its fleet for the period
2022–2026 with the aim of its energy upgrade, amounting to €12,875,978, as calculated from the difference between the
conventional cofinancing interest rate and the RRF interest rate. During the fiscal year, an amount of €2,005,332 was
derecognised from the grants and an equivalent amount increased the Company’s borrowings, resulting in the remaining RRF
grant balance amounting to €8,852,648 as at 31.12.2025.

27. Securitisation
In July 2024, the Company entered into a €220 million financing agreement through the securitisation of receivables with the
National Bank of Greece (NBG). This agreement replaced the existing agreement with JP Morgan. The securitisation is related to
receivables from long-term lease contracts (Asset Backed Securitisation). This financing is non-recourse to other assets of the
Company. The purpose of this financing is to finance the purchase of cars for the needs of replacing and expanding the fleet of
long-term leases.
In July 2025, the Company proceeded again with an amendment of the agreements and added a new investor, Alpha Bank, with
an amount of €70 million, with an equal increase in the senior notes of Autowheel DAC. The amount of the financing as at
31.12.2025 amounted to €290,000,000 and the expected revolving duration of this financing is 24 months from the date of the
latest amendment.
Autohellas (Transferor) proceeded with the sale of business receivables arising from long-term lease contracts to Autowheel DAC
(Acquirer) under the provisions of securitisation according to Law 3156/2003. Autowheel DAC is a special purpose vehicle based
in Dublin, Ireland, with the exclusive purpose of acquiring business receivables as defined in paragraph 2 of Article 10 of Law
3156/2003. The securitisation transaction involves the true sale of receivables to the special purpose vehicle Autowheel DAC.
These business receivables include future lease payments from long-term leases and the estimated proceeds from the sale of
related vehicles, the ownership of which remains with the Company.
Autohellas, under a contract with Autowheel DAC, acts as the Servicer for a fee, meaning it is responsible for monitoring and
collecting receivables from customers whose lease payments have been transferred and subsequently transferring them to
Autowheel DAC. Its role is exclusively to collect on behalf of the noteholders (through Autohellas as the servicer) for the repayment
of the Notes issued and to generally serve the interests of the noteholders until their repayment.
Autowheel DAC is not controlled by Autohellas. The securitisation agreement is a non-recourse agreement to other assets of
Autohellas. Evaluating the criteria of IFRS regarding the independence and autonomy of Autowheel, its legal isolation as a separate
entity, its design and purpose, and the fact that Autohellas does not have decision-making power in this entity, Autowheel DAC is
not consolidated in the consolidated financial statements of Autohellas.
Autowheel DAC, with the proceeds received from the purchase of business receivables, issues Series A and Series B Notes. The
Series A Notes (Senior Notes) were acquired by the investors (NBG and Alpha Bank) and the Series B Notes (Subordinated Notes)
were acquired by Autohellas in compliance with European legislation for the retention of minimum risk by the Transferor. Only
after the full repayment of the Series A Notes can the repayment of the Series B Notes begin.
This securitisation has a 24-month replenishment period ending on 20.07.2027. During this period, Autohellas retains the ability
to transfer new business receivables from long-term lease contracts each month to maintain the securitisation amount at the
desired level. Only after the replenishment period has elapsed, and only if it is not renewed, does the repayment of the notes by
Autowheel DAC begin.

28. Post-employment benefits
For the Company and the Group entities based in Greece, the benefit obligations relate to the requirements under law 2112/1920
as amended by law 4093/2012 based on the years of employment of each employee. The liability is measured and depicted on
the basis of the expected entitlement of each employee at the reporting date or in the interim financial statements, discounted
to the present value, in relation to the expected time of payment.
(i) Amounts in the Statement of Financial Position
The amounts recognised in the Statement of Financial Position and the movements in the net benefit obligation over the year are
as follows:
Group Company 2025 2024 2025 2024 Balance at the beginning of the year 2,414,384 2,206,863 1,086,039 1,003,036 Amounts recognised in profit or loss: Current service cost 285,782 250,884 107,074 94,350 Interest expense 67,120 65,767 30,192 29,890 Past service cost and (gains)/losses on 734,180 253,765 261,608 184,876 settlements/curtailments Total 1,087,082 570,416 398,874 309,116 Amounts recognised in other comprehensive income: (Gain) / Loss from change in demographic assumptions - 1,033 - 1,248 (Gain) / Loss from change in financial assumptions (2,404) 21,718 (965) 7,937 Experience (gain) / losses 33,648 48,793 58,609 40,627 Total 31,244 71,544 57,644 49,812 Other Benefits paid (979,102) (434,439) (320,315) (275,925) Total (979,102) (434,439) (320,315) (275,925) Balance at the end of the year 2,553,608 2,414,384 1,222,242 1,086,039
Annual Financial Report 31.12.2025

(ii) Actuarial assumptions
The principal actuarial assumptions used for the Group and the Company are as follows:
Group Company 2025 2024 2025 2024 Economic assumptions: Discount rate 2.80% 2.78% 2.80% 2.78% Inflation rate 2.00% 2.00% 2.00% 2.00% Salary growth rate 2.10% 2.10% 2.10% 2.10%
(iii) Sensitivity analysis
Reasonably possible changes at the reporting date to one of the relevant actuarial assumptions, holding other assumptions
constant, would have affected the defined benefit obligation by the amounts shown below:
Group Company 31.12.2025 31.12.2024 31.12.2025 31.12.2024 Increase in discount rate by 0.5% (31,764) (56,922) (23,596) (22,343) Decrease in discount rate by 0.5% 61,406 59,230 24,626 23,034 Increase in salary growth rate by 0.5% 55,446 52,265 19,416 17,928 Decrease in salary growth rate by 0.5% (53,518) (50,960) (18,742) (17,323)
The above sensitivity analyses are based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice,
this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the benefit
obligation to significant actuarial assumptions, the same method (present value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with
the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the benefit liability
recognised in the Statement of Financial Position.
The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the prior period.

In this assessment, management took into account the wide geographical dispersion of the Group's facilities in Greece and Europe,
as well as the extensive insurance coverage against extreme weather phenomena and climatic disasters on its assets, and
concluded that there is no need to form a relevant provision in the financial statements as at 31.12.2025.

Greek tax regulations and related clauses are subject to interpretation by the tax authorities and administrative courts of law. Tax
returns are filed annually. The profits or losses declared for tax purposes remain provisional until such time as the tax authorities
examine the tax declarations and the records of the tax payer and a final assessment is issued. From the fiscal year 2011 and
onwards, the tax returns are subject to the audit tax certificate process (as described below). Net operating losses which are tax
deductible, can be carried forward against taxable profits for a period of five years from the year they are generated.
The Company recognises provisions for taxes that may arise from audits of unaudited fiscal years, based on its experience.
(ii) Tax audit certificate
Regarding the Company and the subsidiaries based in Greece, the years 2011 to 2024 have been audited by the elected by
L. 4548/2018 tax auditor, in accordance with article 82 of L.2238/1994 and article 65A of Law 4771/13, and the relevant tax
compliance reports have been issued. According to POL. 1006/05.01.2016, companies that submitted a tax compliance report
without remarks for tax violations are not excluded from conducting a regular tax audit by tax authorities. Therefore, it is possible
that tax authorities will demand to conduct their tax audit. However, the Company’s management estimates that the results from
potential regular tax audits from tax authorities, if conducted, will not have a significant effect on the company’s financial position.
Similarly, the tax audit for the Parent Company and its subsidiaries based in Greece for the year 2025 is carried out by the statutory
auditor. Upon completion of the tax audit, management does not expect to incur significant tax liabilities other than those
recorded and reflected in the financial statements.
(iii) Other contingent liabilities
The subsidiary company HYUNDAI HELLAS S.A. was audited for withholding tax on dividends for the 2020 tax year. By final
assessment No. 944/15.12.2025, an amount of €3,008,853 was imposed, plus a penalty of €1,504,427 and additional latepayment
interest. The company paid 50% of the liability during the financial year and filed an administrative appeal in January 2026 before
the Dispute Resolution Directorate. Management considers the acceptance of the administrative appeal to be highly probable.
40. Commitments
There are no capital commitments regarding the acquisition of tangible and intangible assets.

44. Events after the reporting date
The recent geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have created conditions of uncertainty in the international economic
environment. The Group is closely monitoring developments and assessing potential effects on its activities, which to a limited
extent depend on international travel flows and tourism.
To date, no material impact has been observed on the Group’s activities.
Based on the data available so far, it is not possible to reliably estimate the magnitude of potential impacts, as these depend on
the duration and intensity of the geopolitical developments and their possible effect on tourism in the wider region.
