Shareholding

• Following the market acquisition of 1.74% of the share capital, announced on 26 March, Eiffage, through Dervaux Participations 14, declared that it now holds 29.40% of the share capital representing 29.9%⁶ of voting rights in Getlink.

On 24 April 2026, Mundys disclosed that it had fully exercised its option to raise its holding in Getlink to 25.0% of the share capital and 29.9% of the voting rights.

ESG Strategy

Against a geopolitical backdrop placing significant strain on carbon-based energy resources, the Group reaffirms its leadership on climate and extra-financials. Getlink is actively pursuing its initiatives in support of climate action and social impact, commitments recognised by:

• x
• An “A” rating in the CDP, highlighting the quality and transparency of the Group’s environmental disclosures, as well as its engagement with its suppliers.
• An upgrade in the ISS ESG rating, raised from B- to “Prime”, demonstrating the Group’s ability to anticipate and effectively manage ESG risks and opportunities.
• Confirmation of an “A” carbon score in Axylia’s Vérité40 index, reflecting Getlink’s ability to balance economic performance with managing its carbon footprint.

Group

• EBITDA of €404 million after provision for Eleclink profit-sharing of €45 million.
• Free cash flow of €295 million⁷, compared with €218 million in H1 2025.
• Dividend distribution of €434 million (€0.80 per share) for the 2025 financial year, an increase of €120 million compared with H1 2025.
• Acquisition in April 2026 of Bongers Customs Services, a Dutch company specialising in customs services between the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, integrated into Getlink Customs Services, the Group’s activity dedicated to customs and regulatory formalities.
• Moody’s upgraded CLEF⁸’s rating to Baa1 (from Baa2).

Eurotunnel:

• LeShuttle:
  • Traffic down 2%, with 962,452 passenger vehicles transported.
  • Increase of car market share to 60.2% (vs 59.9% in H1 2025), confirming leadership position on the car market.
  • Continued good performance of yield, supported in particular by the new fare structure launched in March 2025 which has enabled the gradual roll-out of unbundled and flexible offers.
• LeShuttle Freight:
  • Truck traffic fell by 1%, affected by a subdued economic environment in Great Britain.
  • Market share increased to 35.8% (compared with 35.7% in H1 2025). LeShuttle Freight’s market share increased significantly towards the end of the half-year thanks to the competitive advantage of its electric traction model, against a backdrop of more favourable energy costs than those of ferry operators.
• Railway Network:
  • Eurostar traffic up 4% to over 5.8 million passengers, exceeding the record level set in H1 2025, despite the one-off impact of heatwaves in June, driven in particular by the ramp-up of the direct London–Amsterdam service.
  • Signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Eurostar, the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) and SNCF Voyageurs in May 2026 to explore the launch of direct London–Switzerland services.
• UK Business rates:
  As discussions with the Valuation Office Agency (VOA) did not result in an agreement, Getlink confirms a cumulative annual increase in the cost of Eurotunnel’s business rates of €6 million in 2026, €14-16 million in 2027 and €24-27 million in 2028 (compared with the 2025 level)⁹. In view of this disproportionate increase, the Group has initiated several proceedings with a view to bringing its case before a UK court, whilst reserving the right to seek international arbitration.

Europorte

• Revenue of €93 million, up 12% compared with the first half of 2025, driven in particular by the award of major infrastructure contracts to Socorail.
• Improved profitability, with EBITDA up 6%.

Eleclink

• Revenue of €157 million, up 71%, driven by the combined effects of a successful commercial strategy in a favourable market and very high interconnector availability (99.7% in H1 2026 vs 71% in H1 2025).
• EBITDA of €93 million, up 79%, after a provision for Eleclink profit-sharing of €45 million.
• €148 million in revenue already contracted for the second half of 2026¹⁰, with 3% of the cable’s capacity for the period still available.

Operating profit supported by Eleclink’s strong contribution

The Group’s revenue for H1 2026 was €824 million, up 13% compared with H1 2025, supported by Eleclink’s performance (revenue up 71%). Boosted by record high-speed passenger traffic and 4% increase in the Shuttle’s yield, Eurotunnel’s revenue rose by 3% and Europorte’s by 12%.

The Group’s operating costs, excluding the provision for Eleclink’s profit-sharing, were up 7% in H1 2026 to €375 million. Eurotunnel operating costs rose by 6% to €280 million, primarily due to higher taxes (local and social security contributions), development projects and to a transitory increase in specific maintenance operations on certain key assets.

The Group’s EBITDA reached €404 million in H1 2026, up 12% due to the strong contribution from Eleclink (+79%), whilst the EBITDA of Eurotunnel and Europorte rose by 0.3% and 6% respectively.

Net financial costs rose by 4% to €150 million in the first six months of 2026.

Taxes represented a net charge of €13 million (compared with an income of €2 million in the first half of 2025), mainly reflecting the evolution of Eleclink and Eurotunnel activities.

The Group’s consolidated net profit for H1 2026 was €118 million, up 7% compared with the first six months of 2025.

Operating cash flow was €502 million in H1 2026, compared with €402 million in H1 2025.

The Group’s free cash flow was €295 million in H1 2026, up €77 million compared with the same period in 2025, driven by the higher contribution from Eleclink. Capital expenditure totalled €81 million in H1 2026 (vs €65 million).

Cash position at 30 June 2026 reached €1,361 million (vs €1,355 million at 30 June 2025) following the distribution of €434 million in dividends (€0.80 per share) for the 2025 financial year.

GUIDANCE

The first-half performance enables the Group to upgrade its EBITDA guidance for 2026, now expected to be between €835 million and €870 million¹¹.

This target takes into account:

• Reasonable growth assumptions for Eurotunnel, based on the commercial momentum observed over recent months and assuming limited disruptions related to EES implementation.
• For Eleclink, the revenue already secured as at 30 June 2026 (98% of the cable’s capacity for 2026 has been sold for total revenue of €305 million, subject to the actual delivery of the service), recent electricity market prices and use of a method similar to that used for 2025 for the profit-sharing provision in operating costs.
