EXMAR report 2025

5.2 Consolidated financial statements 248 Aspects regarding the directors’ report on the consolidated financial statements and other information disclosed in the annual report on the consolidated financial statements The annual report contains the consolidated sustainability statement which is the subject of our separate limited assurance report on the sustainability statement. This section does not pertain to the assurance on the consolidated sustainability statement included in the annual report. For this part of the annual report on the consolidated financial statements, we refer to our report on the matter. In our opinion, after performing the specific procedures on the directors’ report on the consolidated financial statements, this report is consistent with the consolidated financial statements for that same year and has been established in accordance with the requirements of article 3:32 of the Code of companies and associations. In the context of our statutory audit of the consolidated financial statements we are also responsible to consider, in particular based on information that we became aware of during the audit, if the directors’ report on the consolidated financial statements is free of material misstatement, either by information that is incorrectly stated or otherwise misleading. In the context of the procedures performed, we are not aware of such material misstatement. Statements regarding independence  Our audit firm and our network have not performed any prohibited services and our audit firm has remained independent from the group during the performance of our mandate.  The fees for the additional non-audit services compatible with the statutory audit, as defined in article 3:65 of the Code of companies and associations, have been properly disclosed and disaggregated in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Single European Electronic Format (ESEF) In accordance with the draft standard on the audit of the compliance of the financial statements with the Single European Electronic Format ("ESEF"), we have also performed the audit of the compliance of the ESEF format and of the tagging with the technical regulatory standards as defined by the European Delegated Regulation No. 2019/815 of 17 December 2018 ("Delegated Regulation"). The board of directors is responsible for the preparation, in accordance with the ESEF requirements, of the consolidated financial statements in the form of an electronic file in ESEF format (“digital consolidated financial statements”) included in the annual financial report. Our responsibility is to obtain sufficient and appropriate evidence to conclude that the format and the tagging of the digital consolidated financial statements comply, in all material respects, with the ESEF requirements as stipulated by the Delegated Regulation. Based on our work, in our opinion, the format and the tagging of information in the digital consolidated financial statements included in the annual financial report of Exmar NV as of 31 December 2025 are, in all material respects, prepared in accordance with the ESEF requirements as stipulated by the Delegated Regulation. Other statements  This report is consistent with our additional report to the audit committee referred to in article 11 of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014. Signed at Zaventem.
