Financial Highlights

Strong order intake continued with new orders reaching €232.7 million in 9m 2025, 92% higher than in 9m 2024. On top of that, €150 million additional options have been added, with a high probability of conversion to backlog in the coming years.
Soft backlog of €591.7 million, slightly lower compared to June 2025 – however THEON still expects to accelerate order intake by year end, based on historical trend of new orders in Q4.

Revenue reached €279.3 million, representing the strongest 9m top-line performance in THEON's history, allowing for increasing guidance to €435-445 million, the 2nd upwards revision in 2025.
Adjusted EBIT of €69.4 million, 32.8% higher vs the same period of 2024. This represents an Adjusted EBIT margin of 24.8%, higher than previous year but decelerating vs H1 2025 due to increasing sales of Harder Digital, which is still margin dilutive at the Group level.
Earnings per share reached €0.70 in 9m 2025, increasing by 25% vs 9m 2024, conﬁrming THEON's robust business model.
Capex of €12.5 million, remains in line with full year guidance despite the acceleration of investments and development of capabilities.
Net working capital of €177.6 million, representing a lower amount as percentage of LTM revenue vs September 2024. This increase is solely explained by the higher inventory which positions THEON for a strong Q4.
Reduction in net cash position, while keeping a solid sheet, mainly due to recent investments that have given THEON new capabilities and access to innovative technologies.

Established a new production facility in Belgium as well as a liaison office in Brussels for European Union/ NATO programs.

Signed a new contract through OCCAR for deliveries of new generation thermal clip-on IRIS-C in Germany and Belgium. The initial order is for c.€50 million with an embedded option of c.€150 million.

Post Period End Highlights

Deﬁnitive agreement to purchase a 9.8% strategic stake in Exosens SA to solidify the two companies' strategic partnership, ensure long-term tube supply continuity, and support the exploring of collaboration opportunities. Closing subject to regulatory notiﬁcation in a selected number of countries and expected to take place in early Q1 2026.
Signing of a multi-year framework agreement with a European NATO member state, for the supply of both Night Vision Goggles (NVGs) and the new IRIS-C Thermal Clip-on. This contract has an aggregate value of more than €300 million, with the majority expected to be executed in the 2026-2028 period.

THEON was included in the Europe's Long-Term Growth Champions 2026.

Dimitris Parthenis, CFO of THEON, commented: "Our upgraded FY 2025 revenue outlook reﬂects our commitment to strong execution and timely deliveries, in response to sustained global demand, which is expected to increase our backlog. We look ahead, providing guidance with conﬁdence, supported by both organic growth and the strategic acquisitions and investments completed recently, which have expanded our global footprint, capacity and capabilities. These investments are already fueling momentum. With this in mind, until the further integration of Harder Digital we do not restate our 2025 proﬁt and margin guidance, but conﬁrm that our ambitions remain unchanged in respect to a target of mid-twenties EBIT margin in the mid-term. Our ﬁnancial ﬂexibility keeps us well-positioned to scale further and continue creating long-term value."
