In our opinion, the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group) as of December 31,2024, and of their financial performance and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as endorsed by the European Union. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) as they have been transposed in Greek Legislation. Our responsibilities under those standards are described in the “Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements” section of our report. During our audit, we remained independent of the Company and the Group, in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Account ants (IESBA Code) as transposed in Greek legislation and the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements in Greece. We have fulfilled our responsibilities in accordance with the provisions of the currently enacted law and the requirements of the IESBA Code.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 6 described in the accompanying financial statements, the Group's vessels are measured at historical cost, which is increased by the amount of investments and impairment reversals and decreased by the amount of depreciation and impairment losses incurred during the year. At the end of each annual period, Group’s management assesses the recoverable amount of vessels, which is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value- in-use. Fair value of vessels is estimated according to independent expert’s valuation reports less estimated costs of disposal. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from cash generating units (C.G.U.) determined by management. Τhis requires judgement by Group’s management regarding the future cash flows of the aforementioned units and the discount rates used in the projection of future cash flows. Regarding future cash flows, the estimations used by management relate to variables such as traffic volumes, international fuel oil prices and capital expenses. Taking into consideration the significant value of vessels and the importance of the management's assumptions/accounting estimates, we consider this area as a key audit matter. Management’s disclosures for the accounting policy, assumptions and estimates used for the analysis of the We obtained independent expert’s valuation reports of the Group’s vessels. We assessed the independence and sufficiency of the experts who conducted the valuation of the Group’s vessels. We reviewed the calculation of the vessel impairment test based on the fair value of the vessels considering the valuations obtained by Management from independent experts. We reviewed the appropriateness of capitalization that was considered as a separate element in the value of vessels in accordance with the requirements of IAS 16 "Property, Plant and Equipment". We assessed the adequacy of the related disclosures in the separate and consolidated financial statements.

Investments in subsidiaries As of December 31, 2024 the parent company Attica Holdings S.A. holds investments in subsidiaries of Euro 983,7mil. As also referred to the attached Financial Statements, the Company measures its investments at fair value, recognizing the valuation differences in Equity. No subsidiary of the parent company has stocks traded in an active market. The fair value of the investments in subsidiaries is determined by management’s independent expert. Two methods are used to determine their fair value. Specifically, the method of present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to be derived from the subsidiaries are used, and that of the value resulting from the adjusted (based on the fair value of the vessels) net assets of each subsidiary. Then for the final value of each subsidiary follows the weighting of the two methods. The estimation of future cash flows depends on management’s assumptions relating to traffic volumes, international fuel prices, capital expenses and discount rate. In 2024, gain from investements in subsidiaries measurement at fair value amounted to Euro 35,7mil. Taking into consideration the significant amounts of the subsidiaries, the importance of management's assumptions / accounting estimates and the use of management’s independent experts regarding the Our audit approach includes, among others, the following procedures: We obtained and assessed the independent expert’s valuation report for the determination of the fair value of the investments in subsidiaries.

The value in use calculation is derived from the discounted Our audit approach includes, among others, the following procedures: We obtained reports/estimates for impairment testing of goodwill and trademark that were prepared by independent experts and we assessed the fair value, the judgments, estimates and assumptions with regard to the future cash flows, the prospective growth rates in sales value and volume, the expected growth rates as well as the discount rate used for the cash flows of the Cash Generating Units. In the context of our assessment, we utilized historic data. We assessed the independence and sufficiency of the management’s independent expert. We assessed the consistency, between the years, the methods, the assumptions and the calculations which are being followed by the management, and the extent to which the management has taken into account any events within the year which affect the environment or the conditions. Additionally, we took into

Where the net assets recognized exceed the value of the consideration, a negative goodwill arises. Taking into consideration the significant amounts of goodwill and trademarks as well as the importance of assumptions / accounting estimates of the above we consider this area as a key audit matter. Management’s disclosures for the accounting policy, assumptions and estimates used for the analysis of the above are included in explanatory notes 3.1.1, 3.1.7, 3.1.8, 7.5, 8.14 and 8.15 of the separate and consolidated financial statements. account any elements which in turn affect the assumptions used or changes in business practices, accounting principles and policies that affect the calculations. We assessed the adequacy of the related disclosures in the separate and consolidated financial statements. Other matter The financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31.12.2023 were audited by another audit firm. For the above-mentioned year, the certified auditor issued a report with an unqualified opinion dated April 3, 2024. Other Information Management is responsible for the other information. The other information is included in the Board of Directors’ Report, reference to which is made in the “Report on other Legal and Regulatory Requirements” section, in the Declaration of the Board of Directors members and in any other information which is either required by Law or the Company optionally incorporated, in the Annual Report required by Law 3556/2007, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the separate and consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information 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. If, based on the procedures performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate this matter. We have nothing to report in this respect.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 10 Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the separate and consolidated financial statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the separate and consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as endorsed by the European Union, and for such internal control as management 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, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s and the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern principle of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. The Audit Committee (art. 44 of Law 4449/2017) of the Company is responsible for overseeing the Company’s and the Group’s financial reporting process. 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 the 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, as they have been transposed in Greek Legislation, 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 as they have been transposed in Greek Legislation, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism 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, design and perform 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 the Group’s internal control.

Conclude on the appropriateness of Management’s 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 the 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 the 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 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 financial statements of the Group. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for 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 consolidated financial statements of the audited year end and are therefore the key audit matters.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 16 Limited Assurance Report To the Shareholders of ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A. We have performed a limited assurance engagement regarding the Sustainability Statement of ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A. (hereinafter referred to as the "Group") which is included in section C Sustainability Statement of the consolidated Management Report (the "Sustainability Statement"), for the period from 1/1/2024 to 31/12/2024. Limited Assurance Conclusion Based on our procedures, as described below in the paragraph "Scope of Work Performed", as well as 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 in force by Law 5164/2024 which incorporated Article 29(a) of EU Directive 2013/34 into 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 31 July 2023 and Directive (EU) 2022/2464 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022. The process followed by the Company for identifying and assessing significant risks and opportunities (the "Process"), as outlined in the section Impacts, risks, and opportunities management of the Sustainability Statement, does not comply with the "Requirement IRO-1- Description of the processes to identify and assess material impacts, risks, and opportunities" of ESRS 2 "General Disclosures". The disclosures in the section EU Taxonomy Report of the Sustainability Statement do not comply with Article 8 of Regulation EU 2020/852. This assurance report does not extend to information for previous periods. Basis for Conclusion The limited assurance work was conducted in accordance with the International Standard on Assurance Engagements 3000 (Revised), "Assurance Engagements Other than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information" (hereinafter "ISAE 3000"). In the context of a limited assurance engagement, the procedures performed differ 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 we performed a reasonable assurance engagement. Our responsibilities are further described in the section "Auditor's Responsibilities". Professional Ethics and Quality Management We are independent of the Company throughout the duration of this engagement and have complied with the requirements of the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA Code), the ethical and independence requirements of Law 4449/2017 and EU Regulation 537/2014.

We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion. Responsibilities of Management for the Sustainability Statement Management is responsible for designing and implementing an appropriate process for identifying the required information included in the Sustainability Statement in accordance with the ESRS, as well as for disclosing the Process in the Governance section of the Sustainability Statement. Specifically, this responsibility includes: Understanding the context in which the Company's and the Group's activities and business relationships take place, as well as understanding the affected stakeholders.

Assessing the significance of 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 prevailing circumstances. The Company's and the Group's Management is also responsible for preparing the Sustainability Statement in accordance with Article 154 of Law 4548/2018, as amended and in force by Law 5164/2024 which incorporated Article 29(a) of EU Directive 2013/34 into Greek legislation.

The actual outcome of these actions may differ, as expected events often do not occur as anticipated. As stated in the section Identification of impacts, risks, and opportunities in the Sustainability Statement, the information incorporated into the relevant disclosures is based, among other things, on climate scenarios, which are subject to inherent uncertainty regarding the likelihood, timing, or impact of potential future physical and transition climate-related impacts. Our work covered the items mentioned in the section "Scope of Work Performed" to obtain limited assurance based on the procedures included in the Schedule. Our work does not constitute an audit or review of historical financial information, in accordance with the applicable International Standards on Auditing or the International Standards on Review Engagements, and therefore we do not express any other assurance beyond the stated in the section "Scope of Work Performed".

Our responsibilities regarding the Sustainability Statement, in relation to the Process, include: Performing risk assessment procedures, including understanding relevant internal controls to identify risks related to whether the Process followed by the Company and the Group for identifying the information referred to in the Sustainability Statement does not meet the applicable requirements of the ESRS, but not for the purpose of providing a conclusion on the effectiveness of internal controls over the Process and Designing and performing procedures to assess whether the Process for identifying the information referred to in the Sustainability Statement is consistent with the description of the Process as disclosed in the Identification of impacts, risks, and opportunities section of the said Statement.

Designing and performing procedures regarding those disclosures of the consolidated Sustainability Statement, where a material misstatement 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

(hereinafter referred to as “the Company” or “Attica Group”) refers to the fiscal year 2024 (1.1.2024 - 31.12.2024). The report has been prepared according to the relevant provisions of Law 4548/2018, Law 4706/2020 and Law 3556/2007, as in force, Law 5164/2024 and the issued executive decisions of the Hellenic Capital Market Commission. The present Report contains financial and non-financial information regarding Attica Group for the fiscal year 2024 as well as the Corporate Governance Statement and the Sustainability Report and describes significant events taking place within this period as well as their effect on the annual financial statements. Moreover, it describes the main risks and uncertainties potentially faced by the Group and records significant transactions between the Company and its related parties. Since Attica Group also prepares consolidated financial statements, the present Report is unified and focuses on the consolidated financial data of the Company and its subsidiaries with references to the financial data of the Parent, only insofar as considered necessary to facilitate better understanding of the content. The Report is included together with the financial statements of the Company and the Group and other information and statements required by law in the Annual Financial Report for the closing year 2024. The required items are presented below per thematic unit: SECTION A DEVELOPMENT OF ACTIVITIES AND PERFORMANCE FOR THE PERIOD 01.01.2024 31.12.2024 1. BUSINESS MODEL Attica Holdings S.A., under the distinctive title Attica Groupmainly operates in passenger shipping through shipowning companies by means of conventional and high-speed passenger ferries in Greece (Cyclades, Dodecanese, Crete, North East Aegean, Saronic Gulf) and on international routes. Attica Group is the largest Greek Passenger Shipping Group and the largest Passenger Shipping company in the world in terms of passenger capacity. (Data Shippax 1.4.2024). Group's fleet under the brands Superfast Ferries, Blue Star Ferries, Hellenic Seawaysand Anek Lines, consists of forty-three (43) vessels, of which twenty-eight (28) are conventional Ro-Pax vessels, thirteen (13) are highspeed-catamaran vessels and two (2) vessels are Ro-Ro vessels. All vessels are fully
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 21 owned by the Group except for two (2) Ro-Pax vessels which are under long-term lease. All vessels are registered in Greece, except one which is registered in Cyprus. On 19.12.2024, as part of its strategic implementation plan, the Company completed a spin-off procedure of its shipping division for the passenger, vehicle and freight transportation, which resulted from the merger through absorption of ANEK, and transferring it to its 100% subsidiary Blue Star Ferries Single Member Maritime S.A. The Company upon completion of the spin-off, apart from the Holdings and Properties that it owns, continues to provide, among other things, administrative and consulting services to the companies of the Group. Attica Group's strategy also encompasses the green transition and the renewal of its fleet. In this context, the Group has signed an agreement with Stena RoRo for the long-term charter with purchase option of 2 E-Flexer type vessels, which will be certified methanol ready and battery ready, with engines designed to run on 3 different types of fuel and equipped with state-of-the-art technology for optimal environmental performance and reduction of emissions. Their delivery is scheduled for April and August 2027 respectively. At the same time, Attica Group's operations are expanding into the hospitality sector. This strategy is being implemented gradually from 2021 through acquisition of hotels on islands where the Group's vessels operate. In this context, following its two previous acquisitions the Group acquired in 2024, through its 100% subsidiary, the owning company of Galaxy Hotel, located on the beach of Agios Georgios in Naxos. 2. ACTIVITIES REVIEW In 2024, turnover increased in both geographical sectors in which the Group operates, i.e. in Greek domestic and international routes, compared to 2023. Overall, the Group's turnover increased by 27% reaching Euro 747.81mln versus Euro 588.31mln in 2023, recording increased by 6.2% sailings and increased traffic volumes by 12.4% in passengers, 25.2% in private vehicles and 25.6% in freight units compared to fiscal year 2023. It is to be noted that in 2024, the Group's turnover includes the turnover of the absorbed Company ANEK, and thus there is no comparability of the data compared with 2023. In particular, if the merger of ANEK was concluded on 01.01.2023, the Group's turnover in 2023 would amount to Euro 760.68mln (Notes to Financial Statements Note 8.36). The results for 2024 and burdened with the non-recurring costs related to the merger and the operational integration of ANEK, such as, indicatively, the implementation of a voluntary redundancy plan, the vessels upgrading costs, training and integration costs of crews and shore-based personnel, as well as other merger
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 22 related costs totalling Euro 28.2mln. The Group's operating costs were also affected by the increase in fuel consumption due to the increase in the number of sailings. In addition, starting from 1.1.2024, under European legislation, the maritime sector is included in the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS), under which all shipping companies are required to purchase and surrender emission allowances for the emissions of their vessels. In 2024, the total obligation of the Group regarding the delivery of allowances related to the actual emissions of its vessels amounted to Euro 18.9mln. For this obligation, the Group has purchased emission allowances of Euro 13.3mln and made provision for Euro 5.6mln for the remaining emission allowances quantities. The cost of the allowances of Euro 18.9mln impacted the Group's results and is reflected in the cost of goods sold. For this new expense, the Group has already introduced a related surcharge on the tickets. As a result of the above, the Group's consolidated gross profit in 2024 amounted to Euro 123.78mln compared to consolidated gross profit of Euro 146.51mln in 2023, consolidated EBITDA amounted to Euro 96.29mln compared to Euro 126.38mln in 2023. Consolidated profit after taxes in 2024 amounted to Euro 17.5mln compared to Euro 61.22mln in 2023. The results for the financial year 2024 include a non-recurring profit of Euro 23.8mln from the sale of the Group's stake in the affiliate Africa Morocco Links and the vessels Morocco Star and Morocco Express 1. The results for the financial year 2023 include the profit from the merger of ANEK S.A.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 24 In international routes, the Group's turnover in 2024 amounted to Euro 269.91mln compared to Euro 173.97 in 2023, presenting an increase of 55.2%. In the domestic market, the Group's turnover in 2024 amounted to Euro 474.57mln compared to Euro 412.67mln in 2023, presenting an increase of 15%. Domestic Market turnover includes compensations by the competent Ministry with regards to the execution of public service obligations of Euro 51.74mln (Euro 44.98mln in 2023). The geographical segment "International Routes" includes revenues from vessels chartering activities amounting to Euro 8.59mln in 2024 (Euro 7.49mln in 2023). Operating expenses and other accounts In 2024, the Group's operating expenses amounted to Euro 624.03mln compared to Euro 441.80mln in 2023. The increase is mainly due to the operational integration of ANEK, as well as non-recurring expenses related to the merger. The cost was also affected by the 27.7% increase in metric tons of fuel consumption, compared to 2023. Also, in 2024, operating costs were burdened with the cost of the emission allowances in accordance with the European Union's Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) amounting to Euro 18.9mln (no such costs in 2023). The increase in operating expenses resulted in a decrease in gross profit (gross profit of Euro 123.78 from Euro 146.51 in 2023). The Group's administrative expenses amounted to Euro 61.51mln compared to Euro 39.67mln in 2023. The increase is mainly due to the increase in wages and other employee benefits due to the voluntary redundancy scheme implemented by the Group amounting to Euro 11.2mln, for which a provision of Euro 1.56mln had been made and thus the Group’s results were burdened by an amount of Euro 9.64mln, Additionally, the above increase was also influenced by the increase in the number of employees due to the merger of ANEK with the Company. Distribution expenses amounted to Euro 47.92mln compared to Euro 37.47mln in 2023. The increase is mainly due to an increase in sales commission expenses due to the increase in sales compared to 2023. Other operating income amounted to Euro 2.04mln compared to Euro 1.06mln in 2023. As a result of the above, in 2024, consolidated EBITDA of Euro 96.29mln was recorded, compared to earnings of Euro 126.38mln in 2023. Other financial results amounted to a profit of Euro 6.13mln compared to a loss of Euro 2.19mln in 2023 and primarily include profits of Euro 5.21mln (loss of Euro 1.97mln in 2023) arising from hedging
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 25 transactions intended to mitigate part of the Company's fuel price fluctuation risk and acting within its policy approved by the Board of Directors hedging policy. Relevant information is presented in the notes to the financial statements for 2024 in the section "Derivative financial instruments". The Group's financial expenses amounted to Euro 30.2mln from Euro 28.99mln in 2023 and mainly relate to interest on bond loans. Financial income in 2024 amounted to Euro 1.22mln compared to Euro 1.07mln in 2023. The increase is mainly due to interest income from deposits. "Gains / (losses) on sales of fixed assets" include the gain of Euro 2.82mln from the sale of the Ro/Pax ferry vessel Express Skiathos. The profits from companies consolidated using the equity method amounting to Euro 1.64mln derived from the associate companies ANEK LINES ITALY S.R.L., ETANAP S.A. and LEFKA ORI S.A. In 2024, the Group's shareholding in the associate company Africa Morocco Links (AML) was sold. Therefore, the result for the period relating to discontinued operations includes the operating losses of AML of Euro 3.50mln, the profit from sale of its shareholding stake and the sale of the ferry vessel Morocco Star, totalling Euro 22.63mln. It also includes the gain from the sale of the Ro-Pax vessel Morocco Express 1 (ex. Highspeed 3) amounting to Euro 1.15mln. In 2023, the losses incurred by the affiliated company Africa Morocco Links (AML), which was consolidated under the equity method, amounted to Euro 1.17mln. In total, in 2024, consolidated profits after tax amounted Euro to 17.5mln, compared to profits of Euro 61.22mln in 2023. It should be noted that Group’s revenues are highly seasonal. The highest traffic volume for passengers and vehicles is observed during the months July to September while the lowest traffic volume for passengers and vehicles is observed between November and February. On the other hand, freight sales are not significantly affected by seasonality. It is also noted that the Group's results include the results of the absorbed company ANEK, therefore there is no comparability of 2024 with 2023 due to the fact that the financial data of the absorbed company ANEK were incorporated in the Financial Statements of Attica Holdings on 04.12.2023. Information on the effect on the results for the period 01.01.2023 - 31.12.2023, in case the merger of ANEK had been completed as of 01.01.2023, is included in the Notes to the Financial Statements (Note 8.36).

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 37 For 2025, the Group aims to further exploit the synergies from the integration of ANEK, both in financial and operational terms. The full integration of the fleet into the Group's operating model, combined with the reorganization of routes, has already started to deliver savings through shared operational infrastructure and reduced general expenses. The Group will also focus on sustainable growth and enhancing its competitiveness through the installation of scrubbers and energy efficient systems to optimize vessel operations, as well as through further digitization across all operations, the addition of new routes and the implementation of a hotel development program. The extent of improvement in the Group's financial performance in the current financial year cannot be determined due to substantial uncertainties surrounding the European and global economy, particularly with regards to geopolitical volatility, continued inflationary pressures, fluctuations in fuel prices and uncertainty regarding the development of tourism in our country. The Management is continuously reviewing the developments and is taking all the necessary measures to ensure the Group's sustainable growth objectives. 12. MAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES This section presents the main risks and uncertainties regarding the Group’s business operations: Risks related to financial and market conditions in our country The Group’s operations are significantly affected by the amount of disposable income and consumer spending which, in turn, are affected by the prevailing economic conditions in Greece. Shipping industry is sensitive to the effects of any economic decline in either the Greek economy or the tourism market or even emergencies, which could lead to decreased tariffs and capacity, adversely affecting the Group’s profitability. Liquidity risk The Group manages its liquidity needs on a daily basis through the systematic monitoring of its short and long-term financial liabilities, and its daily payments. Furthermore, the Group constantly monitors the maturity of its receivables and payables in order to maintain a balance between capital continuity and flexibility through its bank creditworthiness. On 31.12.2024, the maturity of the Group’s short -term liabilities for a period of six (6) months was Euro 162.6mln (Euro 183.25mln on 31.12.2023) while the maturity for short-term liabilities from six (6) to twelve (12) months was Euro 31.05mln (Euro 205.32mln on 31.12.2023).
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 38 It is noted that Group’s liquidity position completely covers the requirements of the Group for the next 12 months. Fuel prices fluctuation risk The Group, as all shipping companies, is significantly affected by the volatility of fuel prices. It must be noted that the cost of fuel and lubricants is the most significant operating cost of the Group’s operating expenses, representing in 2024 approximately 42% of the Group’s cost of sales. Indicatively, a change in fuel oil prices equal to 10% for a twelve-month period will have an effect of approximately Euro 25.57mln on the Group’s income statement and equity. The Management actively monitors the situation and takes a number of actions to reduce the Group's operating costs, including the implementation of fuel price hedging transactions for part of the estimated fuel consumption of the Group's vessels. Interest rate fluctuation risk The Group is exposed to interest rate fluctuations as the interest rate on its bank borrowings is affected by changes in the Euribor benchmark rate. In general, the current global economic environment is not favorable for capital-intensive businesses, due to the strong inflationary pressures exerted globally. Indicatively, a change in the interest rate of 1% would have an effect up to Euro 5.54mln on the Group’s income statement and equity on an annual basis. Foreign currency risk The Group’s functional currency is Euro. The Group is affected by the exchange rates fluctuations to the extent that the fuel purchased for the operation of the vessels is traded internationally in U.S. Dollars. Credit risk The Group has no significant credit risk concentrations however, due to its large number of customers, is exposed to credit risk and, therefore, it has established credit control procedures in order to minimize bad debts. More specifically, the Group has defined credit limits and specific credit policies for all its customers’ categories, while it has obtained bank guarantees from major central ticket issuing agents, in order to secure its trade receivables. Furthermore, the Group monitors the balances of its customers and assesses respective provisions. In this respect, potential inability of the customers to fulfil their obligations may affect the Group's results through relevant provisions.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 39 Capital risk management The Group’s objective in capital management is to facilitate its ability to continue as a going concern in order to ensure returns for shareholders and benefits of other stakeholders related to the Group and to maintain an optimal capital structure in order to decrease the capital costs. The Group has significant loan liabilities due to the fact that investments for vessels’ acquisition and energy upgrading require a significant amount of capital, which is largely financed through bank loans, in accordance with the usual practice widespread in the maritime sector. The Group's ability to service and repay its loans depends on its ability to generate cash flows in the future, which - to some extent - depends on factors such as general economic conditions, competition and other uncertainties. The Group monitors its capital based on the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated by dividing the net borrowings by the total capital employed. On 31.12.2024, the gearing ratio is 52%, compared to 49% on 31.12.2023. Competition The Group operates in lines with intense competition, which may further intensify as companies strive to gain a larger market share in already mature markets. The routes with the most intense competition, along which the Group operated in 2024, as well as its most significant competitors are the following: - Grimaldi Lines - International routes in the Adriatic, - Sea Jets, Fast Ferries and Golden Star Ferries at Piraeus Cyclades routes, - Fast Ferries and Golden Star Ferries at Rafina - Cyclades routes, - Minoan Lines and Sea Jets at Piraeus - Crete routes, - Sea Jets and ANES FERRIES Sporades routes, - Saronic Gulf Vessels Joint Venture, Aegean Flying Dolphins, ANES FERRIES, Alpha Lines - Saronic Gulf routes. Risk of accidents The Group's vessels and generally the entire maritime sector, due to the nature of their operations, are subject to the above risk, which may have a negative effect on the results, the reputation, the customer

The Group's vessels are covered by hull and machinery, protection and indemnity and war risks insurances. Seasonality The Group’s sales are highly seasonal. The highest traffic for passengers and vehicles is observed during the months between July and September, while the lowest traffic for passengers and vehicles is observed between November and February. In contrast, freight sales are not significantly affected by seasonality. SECTION B CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT Attica Group Corporate Governance Statement refers to a set of corporate governance principles and practices adopted by the Company, which reflect the way in which the Company is managed, operates and is controlled. The current statement constitutes a special unit of the Annual Report of the Board of Directors (BoD) and was prepared in compliance with the relevant provisions of Articles 152 and 153, Law 4548/2018, Articles 1-24, Law 4706/2020, provisions of Article 44, Law 4449/2017 (Audit Committee), as effective, Law 5164/2024 as well as the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code adopted by the Company, and is analyzed in the following units: 1. HELLENIC CORPORATE GOVERNANCE CODE (EKED) Law 4706/2020 introduced new provisions for the corporate governance system of public limited companies with shares listed on a regulated market. On 14.7.2021, Attica Holdings S.A. BoD decided to adopt, in accordance with article 17 of Law 4706/2020 and Decision 2/905 / 3.3.2021 of the Board of Directors of the Hellenic Capital Market Commission, the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code (EKED), prepared by the Hellenic Corporate Governance Council (ESED), which is posted on its website www.esed.org.gr , as well as on the Company’s website www.attica-group.com. EKED does not refer to the matters that constitute mandatory legal regulations (laws and regulations). EKED either completes the mandatory provisions, or introduces stricter principles, drawing on experience from European and international best practices, always guided by the characteristics of the Greek business and the Greek stock market. It includes best practices and recommendations of self-regulation based on the particular characteristics of the companies, their shareholder composition and the criteria they select on a case-by-case basis.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 41 EKED has been prepared on the basis of the “Comply or Explain” principle, requiring either compliance with all its provisions or explaining reasons for non-compliance with the special practices. Deviations from the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code (EKED) and justification The Company decided not to comply with the following EKED special practices providing the relevant justification based on the Company’s specific characteristics in order to better serve its objective and its most efficient operation: i. Section 2.2. “Composition of the Board of Directors” According to the EKED, the Chairman is selected from the independent non-executive directors and, in the event that a non-executive director is selected, an independent non-executive director is appointed as Vice-Chairman or Senior Independent Director. Under Article 8 paragraphs 21 & 2 of Law 4706/2020, “in the event the Board of Directors, in derogation of par. 1, appoints as Chairman one of the executive members of the Board of Directors, it must appoint a deputy chairman from the non-executive members”. Attica Group Board of Directors appointed Mr. Kyriakos Mageiras, executive member, as Chairman and Mr. Loukas Papazoglou, independent non-executive member, as Deputy Chairman according to the provisions of Article 8, Law 4706/2020. Mr. L. Papazoglou has been a member of the Board of Directors of Attica Group since 2020 and during his term of office has participated in the Boards of Directors of all the Company’s Board committees. He is a business consultant with extensive experience, BoD member, as well as holder of senior management positions in international and Greek companies. ii. Section 2.3. “Succession of the Board of Directors” The presence of a major shareholder in the Company's share capital at a rate of over 86.7% makes the role of the major shareholder dominant in the succession process of the BoD members and more generally in the formation of the Board of Directors. In any case, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee examines the nominations in accordance with the Company's Eligibility Policy, guided by the legislative and regulatory framework. iii. Section 3.2. “Corporate Secretary” The responsibilities of the Corporate Secretary are mainly covered by the Legal, Insurance & Corporate Affairs Division and the Corporate Governance & Regulatory Compliance Division, as well as by other Divisions of the Group, as the case may be.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 42 Furthermore, in 2024, a Board Advisor was appointed, who contributes to the effective and efficient functioning of the Board. In general, the small-staffed Board of Directors, the long-term presence of its members in the composition of the body and effective direct support of the operations of the Board of Directors by the competent Divisions of the Group, adequately support the BoD and its Committees operations at the current stage. iv. Section 3.3 “Evaluation of the Board of Directors/Chief Executive Officer” In accordance with the current regulatory framework, the Company performs the annual collective evaluation of the Board of Directors, the statutory BoD committees as well as the Chairman and the CEO. In particular, the Board of Directors, the Audit Committee and the Remuneration & Nomination Committee are annually collectively evaluated as a body by their own members. In addition, the Chairman and the CEO are evaluated separately. Given that the other members of the Board of Directors are non-executive members, evaluated collectively in the Board of Directors and the participating committees and also taking into account the current small-member Board of Directors, the practice of additional separate evaluation of these members is not applied. v. Section 2.4.14 “Regarding the content of the contracts of the executive members of the Board of Directors.” According to the special practice of EKED 2.4.14 “The contracts of the executive members of the Board of Directors provide that the Board of Directors can demand the return of all or part of the bonus awarded, due to a violation of contractual terms or inaccurate financial statements of previous years or in general based on incorrect financial data, which were used to calculate this bonus”. In the Remuneration Policy of the Company there is a relevant provision, according to which, “If it is decided to grant extraordinary or variable remuneration, the Board of Directors can decide on the conditions for postponing their payment or for their recovery by the Company, such as e.g. in case it is proven that fraud has been committed, resulting in a loss for the Company”. The Company estimates that the relevant provision covers the requirements of the above section of the EKED. 2. INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM The Internal Control System (I.C.S.) is defined as a set of internal control mechanisms and procedures, including risk management, internal control and regulatory compliance, which covers every activity of the Company and the Group on an ongoing basis and contributes to their effective operation.

Additionally, the annual Sustainability Statement and its independent assurance, along with the publication of the annual Responsibility and Sustainability Report, enhance transparency and accountability towards the Board. As part of the double materiality analysis, the Group integrates the impacts, risks, and opportunities arising from its activities into its strategy, decision-making process, and risk management. The double materiality analysis focuses on both the impacts of the Group’s activities on the environment and society, and how external factors, such as climate change and social demands, affect its operations and sustainability. The Group takes the results of this analysis into account to review and, where necessary, improve and adjust its strategy and business decisions, with particular emphasis on reducing environmental impact, ensuring the well-being of employees, protecting local communities, and enhancing transparency. In this context, the Group has already taken specific actions as part of its strategy to reduce risks and prevent negative impacts. Investments have been made in technologies aimed at reducing fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, such as fuel and energy monitoring systems, forecasting the use of biofuels, and designing low emissions vessels. At the same time, stricter risk monitoring and compliance mechanisms have been implemented, along with operational actions to reduce the environmental footprint (e.g., speed reduction or optimizing routes). Additionally, mechanisms for managing conflicts of interest and submitting complaints have been strengthened to improve transparency and the participation of social partners. Furthermore, support for local communities and the implementation of educational programs have enhanced the Group’s sustainability performance and its overall social contribution. The Group also capitalizes on the opportunities arising from the double materiality analysis. The focus on sustainability and responsibility helps strengthen its image, building stronger relationships of trust with customers and stakeholders. At the same time, through educational programs and actions corporate culture is enhanced, promoting employee participation and commitment. Incentive schemes In relation to its climate-related incentive program, the Group incorporates objectives aligned with the succession of the Sustainability Strategy into the variable compensation structure for Top Management. Detailed percentages and data will be published in the Responsibility & Sustainability Report 2024. Additionally, in the coming years, the Group will proceed with the development and publication of a comprehensive approach and the implementation of an incentive framework directly linked to its sustainability performance and climate change mitigation. This approach will include measures and processes aimed at enhancing sustainability and promoting responsible business operations, while ensuring continuous improvement in overall performance.

Recognition of such impacts has been incorporated into the annual risk assessment, and an Emergency Response Plan has been developed that includes measures for preventing and managing negative consequences, such as pollution and potential risks to employees or passengers. Crew is trained in crisis management and environmental protection, ensuring both effective response to possible incidents and the Group's responsible stance toward local communities. Risk management and internal controls The Group follows a comprehensive approach to risk management and internal control, ensuring adequate assessment and management of risks that may affect its business plan and sustainability reporting processes. The Internal Audit Department, as an independent organizational unit, monitors compliance with existing procedures, contributing to the continuous improvement of the Group’s effective operations, the accuracy of both financial and non-financial information, risk management, and compliance with law. The Board of Directors oversees and ensures the adequacy of internal controls through the Audit Committee, the Internal Audit Department, and the Operating Regulation. It is noteworthy that in November 2024, Attica Group received the highest distinction for the quality operation of its Internal Audit Department, obtaining the international certification by IFACI (French Institute of Audit and Internal Control). Risk management involves regular assessment of the most significant risks, with an annual update of a Short-Term Risk Register (12 months) and a biennial update of a Long-Term Risk Register (5 years). This process is conducted in collaboration between the CEO, the Chief Officers, the entire Top Management Team, and the Risk Management Committee, which reviews and approves the Registers before submission to the Board of Directors. Additionally, the Group’s management conducts individual meetings with the Sustainability, Transformation & Risk Management Department and organizes further meetings with stakeholders to assess the potential impact of risks on the Group’s business objectives and strategy. The risk assessment approach involves the identification of inherent risks through the Group's daily operations, analysis of customer complaints, incidents, or financial losses, while using historical data contributes to evaluate the severity and interdependence of risks. The Group’s management organizes meetings to evaluate the potential impacts on business goals and takes measures to mitigate them, while internal audits of the risk management process are conducted every three years, with the last one being carried out in 2022.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 79 The process includes measures for the acceptance, avoidance, or reduction of risks, depending on their effectiveness and their impact on business objectives. The Risk Management Committee of the Board oversees the adequacy of the Risk Management Framework and the Group's response to these risks. Since 2023, the Group has been using a unified Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) platform, which allows for systematic and effective management of issues included in the Risk Registers and their evaluation based on regulatory legislation. At the same time, an annual review of potential new risks is conducted, and these risks are incorporated into the Risk Registers before the next evaluation. The issues analyzed in the Risk Registers include matters of responsible operations such as safety, climate change, and the integration of new business activities. The Group’s risk assessment includes an analysis of the probability of occurrence and the potential impacts in both the short-term and long-term horizons, as well as the implementation of measures to mitigate the residual risk levels. The Group recognizes compliance with national and EU legislation regarding reporting, both financial and non-financial, as crucial for its operations. This specific risk is assessed annually by the Management to measure the effectiveness and efficiency of the measures taken to reduce it. For 16 consecutive years, the Group is publising a Responsibility and Sustainability Report based on the updated guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), with a limited assurance scope. This has created a data control environment over the years, on which the design and drafting of the current Sustainability Statement is based. As part of the preparation of the Sustainability Statement in accordance with regulatory requirements, the Group proactively decided to invest in the “Microsoft Sustainability Manager” platform for gathering data from its primary systems, processing this data, and capturing and calculating the relevant indicators. Similar access and control procedures have been incorporated and maintained, in line with the corresponding financial data management platforms. The Sustainability Statement includes medium- and long-term assessments and plans. The Group's Management evaluates risks over a medium-term period every two years; however, these evaluations, as well as the estimates/plans in the Statement, contain a significant degree of uncertainty due to external factors/risks that directly or indirectly affect the strategic planning. Such risks, evaluated by the Management, include geopolitical instability, fuel costs, stakeholder actions related to climate change, potential changes in national, sectoral, and community frameworks, the likelihood of an economic recession, and the availability of funding for investment plans.

Material impacts, risks and opportunities Material impacts Sustainability topic Impact description Characterization Key existing impacts on strategy & decision-making Identity of action (positive or negative Time horizons) E1. Climate change CO2e emissions A. Fossil fuels are used to power ships, providing the necessary energy for their movement, which in parallel creates dependence on non- renewable resources. The combustion of these fuels disrupts atmospheric stability, intensifies heat retention, degrades air quality, and contributes to the acidification of nearby waters, with several consequences for marine biodiversity. Β. Conventional vehicles powered by fossil fuels and used in maritime support operations continue to generate emissions that hinder the transition to cleaner and more efficient technologies. These persistent emissions burden the atmosphere, intensify heat retention, contribute to the formation of smog, and may negatively impact nearby marine ecosystems by altering the composition of air and water. Negative, Actual, Short-term The Group has developed an environmental strategy along with a decarbonization roadmap extending to 2030. As part of these plans, the Group has set specific actions and targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This strategic approach contributes to environmental protection by addressing the urgent need to mitigate climate change. By setting clear goals and implementing measures, the Group demonstrates its commitment to combating global warming and protecting the environment for future generations. Additionally, the Group has recognized climate risk in its risk registry and plans to thoroughly identify the risks posed by climate change and their potential impact on weather conditions through its risk registers. By acknowledging climate risks, the Group can implement adaptation strategies, such as investing in resilient infrastructure and improving emergency response, thereby helping to protect marine and coastal ecosystems from the effects of climate change. Positive, Actual, Long-term The Group has integrated eleven categories into its Scope 3 emissions accounting system and aims to gradually expand measurement to all relevant Scope 3 categories. This expanded accounting approach enables the Group to identify emission sources across its entire value chain, facilitating targeted efforts to reduce emissions. Ultimately, this can lead to a decrease in greenhouse gas emissions released into the atmosphere, contributing to the efforts against climate change and its effects on the planet. Positive, Actual, Long-term The Group, in compliance with the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) regulations, has established dedicated accounts for reporting emissions and submitting emission allowances for routes serving islands with populations over 200,000 residents, as well as for international routes. Additionally, the Group has already started acquiring estimated emission allowances for 2024. Through compliance with the regulation, the Group contributes to climate change adaptation by offsetting the emissions generated by its activities. Positive, Actual, Long-term

Impact, risk and opportunity management Processes to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities Double materiality assessment methodology
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 100 Attica Group conducted a double materiality analysis to identify, reassess, and prioritize the critical areas of sustainability. This analysis includes the impact materiality, which examines the Group's effects on society, governance, and the environment, while also considering financial materiality, which involves identifying significant risks and opportunities that affect (or could reasonably be expected to affect) the financial position, financial performance, cash flows, access to financing, or cost of capital over the short, medium, or long term. Step 1: Identification of key sustainability issues The first phase of the analysis was based on a comparative industry assessment to understand the broader key issues for the Group. This process involved comparing its activities and evaluating the most fundamental ones. Initially, the identification of positive, negative, actual, and potential impacts took place, and the result of this was the identification of impacts, risks, and opportunities. Step 2: Mapping of stakeholders and the value chain In order to determine the issue index, Attica Group conducted a value chain and stakeholder mapping exercise. At this stage, the value chain was analyzed both upstream (e.g., suppliers) and downstream (e.g., customers), providing a better understanding of the Group's role and contribution to the maritime sector. Stakeholders throughout the value chain, such as suppliers, regulatory bodies, and local communities, were mapped to assess their potential impact on the Group and vice versa. Subsequently, the Group compiled a list of impacts, risks, and opportunities related to sustainable development. This list formed the foundation for subsequent evaluation phases, where the materiality of each impact was analyzed and rated, both in terms of impact materiality and financial materiality. Step 3: Validation and Scoring of Impacts, Risks, and Opportunities At this stage, the validation of the formulation and categorization of all identified impacts, risks, and opportunities (IROs) was completed. In cases where improvements were deemed necessary, the Sustainability, Transformation & Risk Management Department initiated internal discussions with the relevant departments to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information. As a result of this process, a validated list of IROs was created, which formed the basis for the next phase of evaluation. Subsequently, the scoring process was carried out, which involved assessing the impacts, risks, and opportunities, with the aim of determining sustainability topics and subtopics, as defined by the ESRS standards. During the scoring, special emphasis was placed on both the importance of the impacts and their financial materiality, thus ensuring a comprehensive evaluation. Step 4: Verification by Top Management To ensure the reliability and strategic alignment of the identified risks and opportunities, an additional validation step was incorporated into the process, which included a final review by the executive
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 101 management, verifying that the analysis and scoring mechanisms were in agreement with the Group’s broader strategic goals. Additionally, the entire list of identified risks and opportunities was discussed and approved by the Group’s Risk Management Committ ee, ensuring the acceptance of the methodology by the Group’s Board of Directors. Step 5: Stakeholder Engagement The final stage of the process focused on the active involvement of stakeholders, ensuring that their views and expectations were considered in defining sustainability issues. The validation carried out at this stage confirmed that the identified issues not only reflected the Group’s strategic priorities but also aligned with external requirements and social, environmental, and economic expectations. The assessment included the process of prioritizing the significant issues, ensuring that the critical areas affecting the sustainability of the Group were clearly identified. At the same time, feedback and analysis of the comments collected from the consultation activities with stakeholders were conducted. The goal of this analysis was to identify common issues, points of alignment, and potential divergences in opinions, in order to form a comprehensive and balanced approach in the final shaping of the sustainability strategy. Integration of Double Materiality into Risk Management The financial materiality scores underwent a validation process, which was guided by the Sustainability, Transformation & Risk Management Department. This team reviewed the financial impacts of each risk or opportunity, ensuring their alignment with the overall risk management strategy and the business objectives of the Group. The Sustainability, Transformation & Risk Management Department played a key role in consolidating the findings due to its dual role and expertise in both sustainability and risk management, providing a comprehensive overview that integrates sustainability-related financial risks into the Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework. Identification of impacts, risks, and opportunities Identification of impacts The Group conducts an annual assessment of its activities, including its value chain, to review the actual and potential sources of greenhouse gas emissions. This assessment covers direct emissions from fuel consumption (Scope 1 emissions), indirect emissions from purchased electricity and heat (Scope 2 emissions), and emissions across 11 categories within the value chain (Scope 3 emissions). To quantify its impact, Attica Group collects data from its various operations and applies emission factors relevant to the industry and geographical regions in which it operates, to calculate the total greenhouse gas emissions.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 102 Physical risk/opportunities identification Attica Group acknowledges that climate change may pose significant physical risks to its activities and the broader value chain. These risks may affect the continuity of services, the safety of vessels, passengers, and the supply chain. The Group's main business activities are assessed in conjunction with those of its broader value chain, considering short-term, medium-term, and long-term time horizons. Specifically: The Group evaluates climate hazards that are related to temperature fluctuations (e.g. heatwaves, wildfires, heat stress), wind fluctuations (e.g. storms, waves), precipitation fluctuations (e.g. water stress, sea level rise, heavy precipitation, floods) and land system fluctuations (e.g. shoreline erosion and shoreline retreat). The assessment process includes a geospatial analysis of the impacts of these phenomena on the locations where the Group's assets are situated or where it operates (e.g. ports and routes). At the same time, the impact on the Group's supply/value chain partners is evaluated to determine their exposure to these hazards. This assessment is regularly updated to ensure that the most recent data and forecasts are incorporated, given the continuous evolution of climate-related information. The physical hazards are assessed in the short term (0-1 years), medium term (2-5 years), and long term (5-10 years), in alignment with our business planning. The Group also categorizes physical risks into acute and chronic. Acute physical risks arise from short-term extreme weather events or natural disasters. Examples of acute physical risks include hurricanes, floods, wildfires, and heatwaves. Acute physical risks can cause immediate and significant damage to assets, infrastructure, and operations, leading to financial losses and operational disruptions. Chronic physical risks are associated with long-term, gradual changes in climate conditions over time. Examples of chronic physical hazards include sea level rise, increased average temperatures, changes in rainfall patterns, and long-term changes in wind patterns. Chronic physical risks can lead to permanent impacts on asset performance, operational efficiency, and long-term economic sustainability. The Group, utilizing geospatial data and scenario modeling (see IRO-1 21, AR 13, AR 14), assesses the exposure and vulnerability of its operations/activities and assets to risks/hazards. This assessment considers factors such as the likelihood, intensity/severity, and duration of the risk events. In the analysis of geospatial data and the evaluation of risks in specific locations, the Group utilizes the EU NUTS level 2 or level 3 system (Nomenclature of Units for Territorial Statistics - NUTS).
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 103 Transitional risk/opportunities identification Attica Group systematically assesses how broader actions towards transitioning to a lower greenhouse gas emissions economy may affect its assets and business activities in the short-, medium-, and long- term, in accordance with its business planning. Specifically: - The Group assesses transitional risks/opportunities related to changes in the legal and regulatory framework (e.g. pricing of greenhouse gas emissions, emission reporting regulations, mandates on existing products and services, exposure to legal disputes), technology (e.g. substitution of existing products and services with lower-emission alternatives, costs and investments in new technologies), market (e.g. changing customer behavior, increased raw material costs), and reputation (e.g. stakeholder preferences and concerns, sector stigmatization, negative stakeholder feedback). - To determine exposure and sensitivity to transitional risks and to identify opportunities, the Group assesses factors such as likelihood, severity, duration, and speed of implementation of these changes. - The Group conducts scenario analysis (see IRO-1 21, AR 13, AR 14), examining, among others, scenarios of temperature increase aligned with the 1.5°C target of the Paris Agreement. Scenario utilization As part of the process for identifying and assessing physical and transitional risks/opportunities, the Group utilizes scenario analysis over short-term, medium-term, and long-term horizons and explores how different future climate conditions and related factors (e.g. changes in policies, technology) could affect its activities, strategy, and long-term sustainability. The scenarios used by the Group are state-of-the-art and fully aligned with leading scientific frameworks. Specifically, the Group utilizes scenarios developed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), namely the Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) and Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs), as well as scenarios from the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS), for global warming of 1.5°C, 2°C, and more than 3°C. Specifically: 1. ‘Low Emission’ Scenarios, based on the assumption that significant global efforts are made to reduce emissions, limiting global warming to 1.5°C. The SSP1/RCP2.6 ('Taking the Green Road') and NGFS Net Zero 2050 ('Orderly') scenarios are used. 2. Scenarios with varying levels of adaptation, based on the assumption that the level of action differs from country to country and region to region, depending on the policies currently in place, and that measures to address climate change are not immediate. The SSP2/RCP4.5 ('Middle of the Road') and NGFS Delayed Transition ('Disorderly') scenarios are used. 3. 'Business-as-usual' Scenarios, based on the assumption that greenhouse gas emissions continue to increase at current rates and that only existing policies are maintained, leading to a temperature
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 104 increase of more than 3°C and high physical risks. The SSP5/RCP8.5 ('Taking the Highway') and NGFS Current Policies ('Hot House World') scenarios are used. Each scenario incorporates the corresponding external factors, including policy changes such as carbon pricing, developments in low-carbon technologies, changes in energy usage and mix, and variations in various climate variables. These factors are critically important for our sector, which may be sensitive to both regulatory and technological changes, as well as to physical hazard events. Regarding physical risks/opportunities, databases and projections from global and regional models are utilized, at the best possible resolution. Through processing, specific information (data) is extracted to assess the likelihood of hazards occurrence for each scenario in the locations and areas of interest for Attica Group. Example of risk assessment using geospatial data for different scenarios and time horizons. Risk of high waves in 2040 for the 2°C scenario. The grey dots on the map represent the locations of Attica Group's operations. In the scenario analysis for transitional risks/opportunities, assumptions are made regarding the likelihood and timelines of changes for each scenario, in critical factors such as expected regulatory changes, technological developments, and market shifts. Based on the scenario data and the Group's strategic planning, risks/opportunities are evaluated in terms of impact and likelihood, using the Group's existing risk/opportunity assessment model
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 105 The Group is in the process of improving its financial planning framework to incorporate climate-related assumptions. The Group is examining the gradual alignment of key financial assumptions with climate scenarios that are consistent with the 1.5°C temperature increase pathway, as well as the emission reduction targets set by the IMO, ensuring long-term resilience and adaptability. This process runs in parallel to the main financial planning process to the extent that it refers to common forecasting periods and forecasted financial statements, which currently cover the upcoming five-year period. Beyond the five-year horizon, climate-related issues are forecasted independently, focusing on the projection of critical items required by the Regulation (using technical physical assumptions), and not on the basis of the preparation of full financial statements for the referenced periods (i.e., 2030, 2040). Identification of Impacts, Risks, and Opportunities Water pollution is a risk related to the operational nature of the Group and can arise at various stages of maritime operations, such as fuel replenishment, collisions, etc. To ensure a comprehensive and well- documented approach to prevention and mitigation, the Group adheres to all applicable regulations, combines data from internal discussions with the relevant authorities, as well as findings from daily operations and the operations of partners and suppliers, thereby strengthening the strategy and processes for identifying and limiting potential environmental impacts, in accordance with international maritime regulations. As part of its commitment to protecting the marine environment and supporting local communities, the Group implements the "Sailing Together" initiative, which includes two actions in Poros and Crete. This is a voluntary port and beach cleanup initiative, involving employees of the company, local authorities, and volunteers. Beyond removing waste from the marine environment and raising public awareness about environmental protection, the initiative also serves as a platform for dialogue with local communities. Through collaboration with local stakeholders, the initiative helps identify environmental challenges and social needs related to maritime activities, thereby enhancing the sustainable management of coastal areas. Identification of Significant Impacts, Risks, and Opportunities The identification of environmental impacts related to waste management for the Attica Group was based on collaboration with external waste management partners, who provided critical knowledge and experience regarding daily processes. The collection of data and observations enabled the identification of specific risks, such as the inability to fully utilize materials and insufficient recycling, while also highlighting innovation opportunities, such as improving recycling processes and integrating new circular economy practices. To identify the impacts of waste management, Attica Group conducted a survey with 283 participants, recording their expectations regarding waste practices and sustainable management. This survey allowed

At the same time, keeping global temperatures below 1.5°C by 2030 is crucial to limiting the negative impacts of climate change. According t o the data presented at the UN Climate Change Conference in Azerbaijan (COP29) in 2024: Significant progress has been made in promoting the use of maritime fuels and technologies with zero or very low carbon footprint (zero - or near-zero GHG emission technologies / fuels and energy sources). Specifically, over 50 leading players from across the maritime industry spectrum (fuel producers, shipowners, port authorities, and equipment manufacturers) have co-signed a "Call-for-Action" document, reaffirming their joint commitment to meeting vessels' energy needs with zero- or near-zero GHG emission maritime fuels. Their goal is to achieve at least a 5% share of such fuels by 2030, with an ambition to reach up to 10%. Therefore, continuous research and subsequent investments in vessels and technologies that can achieve significant emission reductions at least 90% compared to the environmental footprint of fossil fuels over their respective lifecycle (lifecycle well-to-wake GHG emissions) constitute a goal and a strategic priority of great importance for the shipping industry. From 2024 onwards, the regulatory requirements of the European Union (EU) and the International Maritime Organization (IMO), combined with the EU's ambition to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030 compared to 1990 levels, are expected to create significant immediate costs for shipping companies, such as: The EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) (which, until 2029, applies only to international routes and to islands with a population of over 200,000 inhabitants in domestic routes) and the Fuel EU Maritime Regulation (which will come into effect in January 2025, also limited to international routes and islands with a population of over 200,000 inhabitants in domestic routes) are the main regulations directly affecting the shipping industry. To limit the impacts of the EU ETS (which will apply from January 1, 2024, to routes in the Adriatic Sea and Crete, and will gradually expand to all destinations), we are implementing a strategy that adapts to market conditions, purchasing emission allowances when necessary to control costs. The EU Taxonomy (Taxonomy Regulation), which is a classification system for sustainable economic activities, is expected to impact the shipping industry.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 118 The IMO has introduced measures to reduce emissions from international shipping, setting new guidelines for the Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) a technical measure that requires specific energy efficiency from vessels as well as the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII), an evaluation rating system of vessels’ operational performance of ships in 5 categories. These initiatives aim to support the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and apply to the vessels in our fleet that operate on international routes. In this context, we have successfully completed the EEXI inspections for all vessels over 5,000 gross tonnage (GT), while also developing and approving a plan to improve our CII rating. The Group’s Decarbonization Roadmap is a strategic tool for achieving climate goals, ensuring the continued development and sustainability of its fleet, while simultaneously reducing the intensity of CO2e emissions and other greenhouse gases. This transition is supported by a set of short-term, medium-term, and long-term actions, which focus on the technological and operational upgrade of the fleet, as well as the use of alternative fuels and innovative technologies that promote energy efficiency. The transition plan is Attica Group's commitment to contributing, to the best of its ability, to limiting the global temperature rise to the 1.5°C target. Short-term actions With the aim of continuously improving its operations, the Group is adjusting its operations and routes, by reducing vessel speed to limit emissions and the cost of compliance. At the same time, the impact on passengers is also minimized. The Group is introducing energy efficiency technologies that have been proven to reduce energy consumption and air emissions, while strengthening risk management practices to address the fluctuations in fuel prices and European Union emission rights (EU ETS allowances). Mid-term/Long-term Actions At the same time, the Group ensures that both its existing fleet and new buildings have fuel flexibility, by investing in collaboration with suppliers and technological solutions that can utilize both transitional and alternative fuels. The Group is exploring ways to reduce emissions (mid-term), while also considering investments in Zero Emission Vessels (ZEVs) for the future (long-term). Pillars The Group's climate change strategy focuses on 8 pillars, 3 of which are in progress, while the remaining 5 are under study. Ongoing: Adjustment of vessel speed (where feasible) for vessels over 5,000 gross tonnage (GT). Installation of Energy-Saving Devices on vessels that will not be replaced in the medium-term.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 119 Design and Development of New Passenger Vessels with tri-fuel engines, aiming for low or zero emissions on a well-to-wake basis. Under Study: Alternative Fuels for new vessels, with methanol as the preferred option. Conversion of Certain Vessels to Dual-Fuel Engines. Research on the Use of Certified Sustainable Marine Biofuels with at least 80% lower greenhouse gas emissions footprint to significantly reduce the environmental impact of the existing fleet. Harnessing of Wind Energy on Vessels (for propulsion power generation or electricity production). Reduction of Propulsion System Power and Engine Optimization. Replacement of Ships with New Zero-Emission Vessels (ZEVs). Alignment with the Paris Agreement Appropriate indicators and corresponding short-, medium-, and long-term targets have been established to monitor, evaluate, and adjust the Group's Decarbonization Roadmap. Our goal is to reduce equivalent carbon dioxide emissions per nautical mile (kg eCO2/nm) in relation to 2019, by: 1% by 2023 (Achieved) 4% by 2025 (In progress) 10% by 2028 14% by 2030 The Decarbonization Roadmap has been designed to contribute to the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C, as per the Paris Agreement, even though achieving interim emission reduction targets in this sector is significantly influenced by the development of specific technologies. The Group recognizes the importance of the Paris Agreement in limiting global temperature rise to 1.5°C and is committed to contributing to this objective within its capabilities. It aims to maximize the use of available technologies, adopt alternative fuels where feasible, and integrate sustainability-promoting practices across all its operations. This approach is based on scientifically validated methods and aims for an efficient transition toward a more sustainable business model, considering the requirements of the international regulatory framework, such as the IMO guidelines for reducing emissions in the maritime sector. 8 With the Group's clear public commitment to a 4% reduction in carbon dioxide equivalent emissions per nautical mile (kg eCO2/nm) by 2025, in 2024, we achieved a 2% reduction in the emissions intensity index 8 It is noted that Attica Group is evaluated based on the index of alignment with the EU Paris-Aligned Benchmarks (PAB).
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 120 per nautical mile (kg eCO2/nm), simultaneously, we met the Group’s internal targets and are progressing in line with the Decarbonization Roadmap towards 2025. Implementation of the Transition Plan Attica Group has integrated the Decarbonization Roadmap into the strategic core of the company, ensuring that actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions align with its long-term growth objectives. The strategic initiatives include upgrading vessels to improve energy efficiency and adopting renewable energy sources. These actions, combined with investments in technological solutions for monitoring and optimizing fuel consumption, form the foundation for achieving decarbonization targets Furthermore, the funding of these initiatives is incorporated into the Group’s financial planning, ensuring that actions to reduce emissions do not negatively impact its business livable but instead contribute to a more sustainable and competitive fleet. The Decarbonization Roadmap has been approved by Attica Group’s administrative, management, and supervisory bodies. These governing bodies regularly monitor the progress of the plan’s implementation, ensuring that all strategies and initiatives for reducing greenhouse gas emissions are in line with the Paris Agreement goals and the standards of the international shipping community, including the IMO’s recommendations for emissions reduction. Fuel and energy consumption monitoring systems have been installed initially on two vessels, enabling accurate recording and analysis of consumption, contributing to better resource management and a reduced environmental footprint. Additionally, the Group has initiated the design of new vessels with lower CO2e emissions and is assessing the feasibility of integrating biofuels. The implementation of these measures is ongoing, and Attica Group is closely monitoring the results to ensure progress aligns with its targets for 2025, 2028, and 2030, while also developing new initiatives to accelerate the decarbonization transition of its fleet. Locked-in greenhouse gas emissions The Group has not yet conducted a qualitative assessment of the potential locked-in greenhouse gas emissions arising from its core assets and activities. However, the Group is considering the development and implementation of this process in the near future. The goal is to identify high-intensity emissions, assess their potential impacts on achieving emissions reduction targets, and develop comprehensive management plans to mitigate transition risk. Material impacts, risks and opportunities The outcomes of the resilience analysis, which were integrated with the double materiality results, provide a comprehensive view of both the impacts (positive or negative) and the Group's capacity to withstand and adapt to both physical and transitional climate-related risks. Since this analysis assesses the potential
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 121 impacts of climate change under different scenarios, it highlights areas where the Group is well-positioned to respond, as well as areas that require further adaptation efforts and action. At the same time, it demonstrates the Group's commitment to sustainability and outlines the strategic actions needed to mitigate risks and leverage opportunities. Resilience analysis Scope of Application The Group conducts resilience analysis with the aim of assessing its impacts and vulnerability to physical and transitional climate-related risks. The scope of this analysis specifically covers: Marine activities, which includes monitoring and assessing the impacts related to the fleet, its operations (routes, ports), and its supply chain, with a focus on the exposure to transitional and physical risks that may lead to operational disruptions or general vulnerability of our fleet. Hotel operations, which includes assessing the resilience of the Group’s hotel properties, with an emphasis on the vulnerability of the buildings, guest services, and business continuity to climate impacts. Corporate infrastructure, which includes an analysis of the resilience of the Group’s Headquarters and administrative functions against risks that could impact employee safety, operational efficiency, and revenue generation. The analysis covers the Group’s core activities (Own Operations), as well as key elements of the value chain in the upstream and downstream stages, such as procurement, ground transportation and logistics. The analysis considers both physical risks and transitional risks. Scenario utilization The resilience analysis of Attica Group is conducted through a combination of internal assessments, consultations with experts and executives of the Group, and the use of external data (models). This analysis incorporates both qualitative and quantitative approaches and is carried out for multiple climate scenarios (1.5°C, 2°C, and 3°C). The basic steps of the methodology include: Evaluation of impacts through questionnaires distributed to the heads of business units within the Group, and through the integration of internal business data and relevant external climate-related data. Quantification of potential financial and operational impacts on key assets, revenue streams, and supply chains over the short-, medium-, and long-term horizons.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 122 Integration of climate scenarios from internationally recognized organizations such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) to explore potential impacts under different climate trajectories. Collaboration with executives/experts within the Group to validate assumptions and rank (prioritize) risks and opportunities. Review of existing mitigation strategies and adaptation plans in relation to risks determining their effectiveness. Development of new mitigation actions and action plans to address emerging risks or leverage potential opportunities. The resilience analysis is conducted within the framework of the annual Risk Management assessment process, and its results are considered in the strategic planning cycles. The results presented in this Report are based on the resilience analysis completed in December 2024. Time horizons of the analysis The resilience analysis is conducted over three distinct time horizons to ensure that both short-term and long-term climate risks are considered. Specifically, the time horizons considered by the Group are: Short-term (0-1 years), focusing on matters that may affect our operations and infrastructure in the near future. Mid-term (2-5 years), evaluating how climate-related issues may evolve and how they could impact the Group’s sustainability. Long-term (5-15 years), evaluating the broader and more permanent impacts of climate change, and the long-term consequences for our sector. This range ensures that the analysis captures potential short-term disruptions as well as long-term challenges, allowing the Group to take necessary resilience measures to address immediate risks, invest in timely long-term adaptation actions, and leverage emerging opportunities. These time horizons are fully aligned with the Group's strategic and business planning cycles. Material risk and opportunity assessment Transitional risks The transitional risks and opportunities analysis evaluates the potential impacts of the transition to a low carbon emissions economy, considering the evolving regulatory landscape, market dynamics, and technological advancements. With increasing climate change mitigation ambition and alignment with the Paris Agreement to limit the temperature increase to below 2°C, the Group is likely to face a series of challenges related to adapting to stricter environmental policies, shifting consumer preferences, and the transition to sustainable business models. This analysis highlights the material risks associated with
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 123 regulatory compliance, market changes, and operational adjustments, as well as the opportunities for growth and innovation through sustainable practices and technologies. A. Risks of regulatory compliance with environmental regulations on emissions of gases Scenario/Time horizon: 1.5 o C, 2 o C | medium-, long-term Description: The Group is expected to face several risks associated with increasingly stringent regulations regarding the emissions of gaseous pollutants (incl. greenhouse gases) both in the EU and internationally (e.g. the European Green Deal, the Emissions Trading System (ETS)). The strengthening of emission indicators, such as the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII), may render certain vessels obsolete, while fleet upgrades will require significant capital investments. In 1.5°C and 2°C scenarios, regulations could even restrict fleet operations (e.g. route bans), increasing operational costs and reducing revenues. In general, compliance may require specialized personnel, advanced monitoring systems, and infrastructure upgrades to transition to low-emission and cleaner technologies, resulting in higher operational costs that may be passed on to customers. This could reduce the Group's competitiveness, or the number of passengers transported annually. Finally, the increased pressure for transparency from stakeholders creates additional burdens for reporting and disclosures, posing a significant challenge for the Group. The aforementioned factors present substantial operational and financial challenges for the Group. Mitigation actions: To effectively mitigate these risks, the Group has integrated into its strategy investments in energy-efficient technologies and renewable energy solutions, and in emissions monitoring systems. In addition, the Group ensures alignment with evolving regulations by hiring specialized personnel and collaborating with sustainability consultants. Fleet upgrades, combined with strategic changes, position the Group to address regulatory challenges and maintain its competitiveness. B. Transition to alternative energy technologies risks Scenario/Time horizon: 1.5 o C, 2 o C | medium-, long-term Description: The Group faces risks that are associated with the depreciation of existing assets (fleet) due to regulatory changes in the sector regarding the use of carbon-based fuels. Delays by the Group in adopting low carbon emission technologies could lead to competitive disadvantages, as competitors may already be advancing their transition to alternative solutions. Moreover, the investments required to upgrade vessels, in order to meet energy efficiency and sustainability standards create financial challenges for the Group, including increased investment costs for technical work, staff training, and achieving green certifications.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 124 Mitigation actions: To mitigate this risk, the Group has developed the Decarbonization Roadmap, which is a plan for the gradual transition to low-emission technologies. It includes the retrofitting of existing assets to meet regulatory standards, the shift to alternative fuels, and investments in zero-emission vessels. C. Supply chain and partnership risks Scenario/Time horizon: 1.5oC, 3oC | medium-, long-term Description: The Group may face increasing operational costs due to supply chain disruptions and inflation of raw material and fuel prices. The creation of infrastructure for alternative fuels or technologies requires additional investments in managing facilities (e.g. storage, transportation) and staff training. The maintenance and retrofitting costs of vessels could increase dramatically due to the rising prices of key materials such as steel, aluminum, and spare parts. The volatility of fuel prices (both traditional and alternative) could further strain cost budgets. These pressures may lead to higher expenses, potentially affecting overall operational efficiency and profitability. Mitigation actions: To mitigate the above risks, the Group enters into long-term contracts and partnerships with main suppliers to stabilize the cost of raw materials and fuel supply. Additionally, the Group’s investments in supply chain diversification (e.g. alternative fuels, use of renewable energy) reduce dependence on single sources and enhance resilience to price volatility, especially of fuels. Finally, the Group is already making gradual investments in retrofitting the fleet to align with environmental standards, aiming not to excessively strain financial resources. D. Adaptation and strategic risks Scenario/Time horizon: 2 o C | long-term Description: The investment in new and untested technologies entails substantial financial and operational risks for the Group. New technologies may not meet expectations, leading to financial losses. The incorporation of immature or underperforming technologies could also lead to unexpected operational disruptions, delays, or breakdowns, further affecting profitability. Finally, there is also the risk of investing in technologies that may promptly become obsolete due to rapid technological advancements or changes in regulatory requirements, resulting in costly upgrades to maintain compliance. Mitigation actions: The Group prioritizes investments in tested technologies with a proven track record of reliability and performance. The Group conducts studies of the technologies under consideration, aiming to identify potential issues early and prioritize them. The Group also focuses on continuous monitoring and adaptation of new technologies to ensure they meet performance expectations and regulatory
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 125 requirements. Collaboration with industry experts helps ensure alignment with future trends, reducing the risk of asset obsolescence. Finally, the Group aims to diversify its technologies by investing in different solutions to distribute risk and improve the chances of successful implementation. E. Financial impact risks Scenario/Time horizon: 1.5 o C, 2 o C | medium-, long-term Description: The Group may face higher operational costs due to the increase in expenses associated with the procurement of low-carbon fuels. Additionally, the transition to lower-emission technologies requires significant upfront investments, which could strain the Group's financial resources. Furthermore, securing financing for the transition may pose a challenge if financial institutions or investors perceive the technologies as high-risk or lack the necessary knowledge/expertise to assess them, or if the Group does not have a well-defined and reliable transition plan in place. Mitigation actions: The Group is exploring funding options, such as sustainable loans or community incentives, and has entered into an agreement with the Recovery and Resilience Fund (RRF) to finance investments aimed at reducing the financial burden of transitioning to lower-emission technologies and carbon emissions reduction. Additionally, the Group is seeking financing on favorable terms for investments addressing the impacts of Climate Change. Furthermore, the Group has developed a robust and transparent transition plan (Decarbonization Roadmap) that demonstrates long-term sustainability and return on investment from adopting more green technologies. Transitional Opportunities A. Financial and investment opportunities Securing green financing could offer benefits to the Group in reducing borrowing costs and supporting transition projects. Attracting impact investors and sustainability-focused funds could provide the Group with additional financial resources for expansion and innovation, aligning it with market trends concerning climate change. Demonstrating strong climate resilience is also expected to enhance the Group’s creditworthiness, leading to reduced borrowing costs. B. Technological advancement, cost efficiency and resource optimization opportunities The installation of photovoltaic (solar) systems on vessels, as demonstrated in our existing applications and planned for additional vessels, presents an opportunity to reduce fuel consumption and emissions. This solution not only lowers operational costs but also supports the Group's emission reduction targets. The acquisition of

Exploring biofuels is another promising avenue for transitioning to more sustainable fuel options in the future. By incorporating these technologies, the Group enhances operational efficiency while simultaneously reducing its environmental impact. C. Adaptation and growth opportunities The timely integration of actions and initiatives into the Group's strategic planning enhances long-term growth prospects and operational resilience. Our business model incorporates sustainable practices, while investments in fleet modernization ensure the Group's alignment with evolving industry trends, positioning it to leverage growth opportunities in low-carbon emissions products and service markets. D. Regulatory and policy opportunities With the increasing government incentives for adopting green technologies, the Group can significantly reduce capital and operational costs while ensuring compliance with sustainability regulations. The growing trend of regulatory policies promoting sustainability, particularly regarding energy efficiency, presents multiple opportunities for the Group to leverage incentives (e.g. tax relief, grants) for upgrading its assets to meet ‘green’ standards (e.g. LEED certifications) or to adopt renewable energy solutions. Physical risks and opportunities During the resilience analysis, physical risks associated with climate change were also evaluated across the activities and value chain of the Group. While the analysis identified several physical risks, they were all characterized as non-material compared to the transitional risks. This conclusion was based on the examination of future climate data for the three scenarios and the Group's risk quantification model, which assesses the likelihood and impact of the risks. We note here that physical risks may become more significant in the long-term time horizon under the scenario of a temperature increase of more than 3°C. This will happen due to the insufficient global efforts to limit the temperature increase, which could lead to more severe events (acute physical hazards) or chronic changes, causing escalating environmental and economic impacts. In contrast, in the more optimistic scenarios (1.5°C or 2°C), the physical risks and the Group's exposure are reduced. Specifically, the following key risks were identified: Extreme weather events may lead to operational disruptions for the Group. For instance, storms, heavy precipitation and high waves could cause disruptions in routes and delays in operations during port stays. Coastal floods and shoreline erosion may threaten the accessibility and infrastructure of ports, potentially rendering low-lying facilities inaccessible. Changes in wind patterns and sea currents (directions and intensity) alter navigation and docking conditions.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 127 The Group anticipates that it may face financial risks due to the physical impacts of climate change (e.g. increased costs, reduced revenues). For example, repair, maintenance, and insurance expenses may rise as extreme weather events cause damage to vessels and fixed infrastructure. Heatwaves are expected to lead to higher operational costs due to increased cooling needs, while adverse winds during navigation result in higher fuel consumption. Additionally, a decrease in demand (trips and bookings) in high-risk areas (e.g. due to heatwaves, wildfires) during certain months of the year may lead to a reduction in occupancy rates and revenues. The physical risks affecting Attica Group's supply/value chain partners, including ports, suppliers, and passengers, may become operational disruptions for the Group. For example, damage to port infrastructure caused by strong waves and winds could lead to interruptions of services. Wildfires near ports may lead to traffic disruptions to and from the port, preventing access for passengers and cargo, and resulting in delays and operational disturbances for the Group. Finally, extreme heat conditions pose health risks for crew members and passengers (e.g. fatigue or heat stress), while also increasing the likelihood of accidents or errors in critical vessel operations. The Group may face risks related to a decrease in customer satisfaction or the satisfaction of other stakeholders. For example, weather-related disruptions, delays in schedules, and safety concerns onboard may undermine passenger trust and satisfaction. Compliance with regulatory requirements and liability management entail risks for the Group, as adherence to regulations and safety standards for marine activities during extreme weather events may lead to increased costs. The Group acknowledges the growing materiality of physical risks in more pessimistic future climate scenarios and is exploring proactive measures and long-term planning to build resilience against such adverse conditions. For example, the Group has incorporated predictive analytics and climate modeling to forecast extreme weather events into its Risk Management process. The results of the Group’s analysis contribute to the development of emergency preparedness plans, including evacuation protocols and alternative routes. Additionally, collaboration with other partners (ports, local communities, government) is in place to reduce the likelihood of disruptions. Finally, significant opportunities arise from the proactive management of physical risks. By improving response times during weather-related disruptions and demonstrating leadership in climate change adaptation, the Group can enhance its reputation and build customer trust. Furthermore, as a short- to medium-term increase of the tourist season by one (1) month is anticipated, this could result in an increase in the Group’s revenues. Positive impacts
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 128 Attica Group has developed a comprehensive environmental strategy and a Decarbonization Roadmap with a target horizon 2030, including specific actions and goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As part of this strategy, the Group has integrated climate risk into its risk register and conducts a thorough identification of risks related to climate change, as well as their potential impact on weather conditions. At the regulatory compliance level, Attica Group has taken actions to comply with the European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS). Specifically, it has opened dedicated accounts for reporting emissions and submitting the corresponding allowances, covering routes to islands with a population of over 200,000 residents, as well as international routes. Additionally, the process of acquiring the estimated emissions allowances for 2024 has already commenced. At the operational level, the Group has integrated eleven categories for the calculation of Scope 3 emissions, aiming for the comprehensive measurement of all relevant categories in the future. To reduce its energy footprint, the Group has installed solar panels on the Blue Star Delos vessel and is expanding this initiative to three additional vessels (Aero 1, Aero 2, Aero 3), as well as to the new Aero Catamaran. Additionally, Attica Group has implemented measures to improve energy efficiency, such as the installation of electricity consumption analysis sensors, the use of monitoring systems for fuel refueling, and the installation of LED lighting on its vessels. Meanwhile, the automation of Building Management Systems (BMS) for better temperature control in office buildings contributes to energy savings, while the replacement of conventional light bulbs with LEDs and the use of LED advertising signs further enhance energy efficiency. Negative impacts The activities of the Group potentially contribute to climate change through the creation of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and other environmental impacts. In marine activities (a high climate impact sector), the combustion of fossil fuels constitutes a significant source of carbon dioxide (CO), methane (CH), and nitrous oxide (NO) emissions, which may contribute to the greenhouse effect in the long term. These emissions may be aggravated by non-optimal routing, fleet idling at ports, and the increasing demand for cargo and passenger transport in the areas of our operations. Risks and opportunities This analysis has highlighted that transitional risks and opportunities are material for Attica Group in a climate future aligned with the Paris Agreement, with temperature increase scenarios of 1.5°C or 2°C. This occurs because as global efforts to mitigate climate change and meet global warming reduction targets intensify, more stringent policies and regulations are expected, which will likely lead to radical changes in markets, technology and stakeholder expectations, including in our sector. While the Group faces significant transitional risks, including regulatory pressure, evolving customer preferences, and the financial burden of transitioning to more 'green' operations, these challenges also present opportunities for innovation, differentiation, and long-term
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 129 resilience. The Group's ability to proactively adapt to these risks and leverage these opportunities will be crucial for maintaining competitiveness and ensuring future growth. Regarding physical risks/opportunities, the assessment revealed that, while physical risks could lead to disruptions, particularly in the 3°C scenario, the potential financial and strategic impacts of transitional risks present a more significant challenge to the Group's business model and long-term sustainability. The Group acknowledges the uncertainties in the analysis, which are primarily due to the volatile environment in which it operates, the changing pace of regulatory changes and technological developments, as well as the varying scientific estimates regarding the frequency and intensity of climate impacts depending on the selected scenarios. The risks and opportunities identified in this analysis have been partially incorporated and will be further incorporated into the strategy of the Group, so that they are considered in any decisions or business plans. Current and planned actions include investments and the adoption of technologies with a lower carbon footprint, as well as the enhancement of Risk Management strategies to reduce exposure to physical and transitional risks. The Group monitors and assesses its resilience measures, adjusting its strategy and business model to address climate change. In the short term, it is implementing actions from the Decarbonization Roadmap, while in the long term, it aims to reduce emissions. Its priorities include energy efficiency, technological investment, and strengthening the supply chain. The basic findings of the resilience analysis concerning the risks and opportunities are presented below: Transitional Risks related to climate (based on likelihood and impact) by time horizon and scenario.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 130 Transitional risks are higher in the 1.5°C and 2°C scenarios because these scenarios align with the goals of the Paris Agreement, which require rapid and significant global efforts to achieve carbon neutrality. Achieving these goals requires the implementation of strict climate policies and regulations, and drastic market changes to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This includes higher carbon taxes, stricter energy efficiency standards, and a faster transition to renewable energy sources, all of which create economic and operational pressures on the Group. In contrast, the 3°C scenario assumes less aggressive mitigation efforts and slower policy development, resulting in fewer changes in legislation and the market. While the physical impacts of climate change are more severe in a 3°C future scenario, the regulatory and economic factors of transitional risks are less pronounced, as global efforts to limit emissions are weaker. Therefore, we expect the Group to face fewer immediate changes in the operational and economic landscape in a 3°C scenario compared to the more ambitious transformations required for the 1.5°C or 2°C scenarios. Transitional Opportunities related to climate (based on likelihood and impact) by time horizon and scenario.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 131 Physical Risks related to climate (based on likelihood and impact) by time horizon and scenario. None of the above physical risks are at a high (orange) or very high (red) level and therefore are not considered material. Certain locations of our operations are classified as high-risk according to the physical risk modeling analysis, but cumulatively across the entire scope of the Group's activities, they remain at low to medium levels. Physical opportunities related to climate (based on likelihood and impact) by time horizon and scenario.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 132 Policies and Procedures Attica Group recognizes that it must actively participate, to the extent appropriate in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from its activities. The Group also acknowledges that climate change may affect its operations, value chain, stakeholder groups and the local communities in which it operates and serves. At the same time, however, it believes that climate change can present an opportunity for innovation, enhancing our resilience, and leading the way toward an innovative transition to a more Sustainable Economy. In this context, the Group has developed and adopted a separate Climate Change Policy, which outlines our approach and initiatives for mitigating climate change and adapting to it. This policy is part of a broader sustainability framework and is implemented complementarily with the Environmental Policy and the Sustainable Development Policy, ensuring a holistic approach to environmental management and long- term sustainability. The highest responsible authority for these policies, at the Management level, is the CEO. These policies are aligned both with the Group’s long-term environmental and business goals and with international standards, forming an integral part of the Group’s ongoing effort to integrate climate resilience and sustainability into our business practices. These policies are available on the Group's corporate website. Finally, the implementation of this Policy extends to business partners, in accordance with the Group's Suppliers / Business Partners Code of Conduct, encouraging all partners to adopt similar sustainable practices and contribute to reducing their environmental and carbon footprint. Actions To optimize the management of its environmental footprint, the Group has undertaken the following initiatives: Use of specialized low-resistance silicone anti-fouling paint on vessels to reduce fuel consumption. Utilization of heat from the exhaust gases of vessel engines to heat public areas and water. Regular cleaning of the hulls and propellers of vessels to improve energy efficiency. Installation of energy-saving LED lamps in the Group's offices and replacement of conventional bulbs on vessels with new LED lamps, as well as the installation of LED advertising signs. Introduction of automation in the Building Management Systems (BMS) of the offices for efficient cooling/heating and implementation of measures to enhance the efficiency of energy management. Adjustment of electrical appliances (such as refrigerators and freezers) to optimal usage and operating levels, in accordance with legislation and manuals, and deactivating them when not in use. Replacement of the corporate fleet with new hybrid or electric vehicles. Equipping the management with electric vehicles, with the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions falling under Scope 3 - Category 7 emissions.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 133 Environmentally Friendly Vessels Attica Group has built and launched three state-of-the-art Aero Highspeed for the Saronic Gulf routes, as part of a 21 million euros investment aimed at replacing older vessels. This initiative contributes to reducing the environmental footprint, as the new vessels have improved energy efficiency, with lower fuel consumption and reduced emissions. This is achieved by the use of lighter materials, such as carbon fiber, and the installation of solar panels to meet the vessel’s lighting and electricity needs. The Group has signed an agreement with Stena RoRo for the chartering of two E-Flexer type vessels, with an option to purchase, as part of its green transition and fleet upgrade. The vessels will be built in China and delivered in 2027. They will be certified as methanol-ready and battery-ready, with the ability to use three types of fuel, reducing emissions by 60% per transport task compared to the existing ships. The agreement concerns a long-term charter, with purchasing option after five years and the possibility of expanding for two additional vessels. The Group plans to reorganize its fleet by replacing older vessels. Their design ensures high environmental performance and comfort, with luxurious cabins, dining areas, and entertainment spaces. They are equipped with technologies such as photovoltaic panels, onshore electrical power systems, and LED lighting, contributing to sustainable shipping. Participation in research programs Participation in European research programs and collaboration with internal combustion engine manufacturers (WNSD) for the development of emission reduction technologies are key priorities in the search for innovative solutions for green development. As part of these efforts, participation in the EU-funded Poseidon Med II program, which promoted the use of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) at six key ports in Greece, Italy, and Cyprus, as well as at the LNG terminal in Revithoussa, strengthens the strategy for adopting sustainable energy solutions in the maritime transport sector. LNG is considered the cleanest fossil fuel, as it does not produce sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions and can reduce particulate matter (PM) emissions by up to 100%, nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions by 85%, and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by 25%, compared to traditional marine fuel. Furthermore, the Group is exploring partnerships with engine manufacturers to use other alternative fuels, such as methanol and other biofuels. Additionally, supporting research and innovation in the shipping industry, in 2024 the Group's participation in the research project "Fleetfor55" was approved under the EU's "Horizon Europe" program. This initiative, which is expected to last more than 3.5 years, aims to conduct a holistic study and evaluation of the most significant and sustainable new energy-saving technologies for vessels in both domestic and international shipping, as well as to develop strategies for their optimal use in the global fleet. Refrigerators / Freezers
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 134 As part of efforts to reduce its environmental footprint, the Group has installed refrigerators and freezers with environmentally friendly refrigerants on its vessels, thus contributing to the adoption of more sustainable technologies. Buildings / Vessels Instead, refrigerants that are more environmentally friendly and do not cause damage to the stratosphere, such as R134A, R449, R407, R410A, and R417, are preferred. At the same time, refrigerants and fire protection materials (which inevitably leak) are being replaced with alternative refrigerants that are more eco-friendly. These new refrigerants have a zero Ozone Depletion Potential (R-11 equivalent), thus reducing their negative impact on the environment. Additionally, the initiatives to address climate change rely heavily on the Group's own funding. The implementation of strategies to reduce the environmental footprint, the development and application of clean energy technologies, and the introduction of sustainable practices require significant financial resources. These investments include the purchase and installation of modern equipment, participation in research programs for innovative solutions, fleet renewal with low-emission vessels, and ongoing research into alternative fuels. Metrics and Targets As already mentioned, to address these issues, the Group has developed decarbonization mechanisms that include specific actions and targets for 2030. This strategy was approved by our Board of Directors in 2022 and aims to reduce emissions and transition to more sustainable practices across all areas of its activities. The Group's climate targets are set in accordance with the international maritime regulatory requirements, with a focus on the regulations of the International Maritime Organization (IMO). The IMO has established strict specifications for greenhouse gas emissions, as well as other pollutants such as sulfur, aiming to reduce the environmental impact of shipping industry. At the same time, the Group's climate change targets align with the IMO's requirements, while also adhering to the additional obligations of the European Union regarding the reduction of eCO2 emissions and the promotion of sustainability. The Group strives to contribute to the reduction of its carbon footprint by adopting alternative fuels and improving the energy efficiency of its vessels.

All emissions have been calculated based on actual consumption quantities, unless stated otherwise. The year 2019 was selected as the baseline year, considering the availability and quality of the data from the Group's companies. The intensity index was calculated based on emissions per nautical mile traveled, providing a representative evaluation measure, which for 2019 amounted to 546.5 kg eCO2/nm. Scope 1 emissions were calculated using the DEFRA 2024 conversion factors, while for Scope 2, the National Inventory and renewable energy (RES) factors were used. The electricity consumed by the Group's offices is supplied by the Public Power Corporation (PPC), but it is not accompanied by guarantees of origin. For Scope 3, Categories 2, 3, 7, and 13 were selected after evaluating all categories based on the significance of the emissions generated, their contribution to risk exposure, and the availability of primary data. Emissions were calculated based on consumed fuels and energy, with the exception of Category 7, where average consumption, actual distances from the workplace, and average days of physical presence in the offices were used, as well as Category 2, for which expense data were adjusted for currency conversion. The vessels chartered to other companies were included in Scope 3 Category 13. Scope 3 emission calculations were based exclusively on actual data and not estimates. The factors used include the DEFRA 2024 GHG Conversion Factors for Company Reporting (MGO, VLSFO, HSFO, refrigerants, and firefighting agents, Categories 3 and 13), the EPA 2022 Supply Chain GHG Emission Factors for US Commodities and Industries v1.1 (Category 2), and the EPA 2024 GHG Emission Factors for Business Travel and Employee Commuting (Category 7).

The EU ETS is a regulated framework that ensures the transparency and authenticity of emission allowances, ensuring that companies comply with the EU's climate policies. As stated in the Transition Plan, from 2023, the EU and IMO regulatory requirements, combined with the target of reducing emissions by 55% by 2030, may increase the business costs for shipping companies. The EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), which applies until 2029 for international routes and domestic routes to islands with more than 200,000 inhabitants, is one of the key regulatory proposals impacting the industry. To mitigate the financial burden of the EU ETS, which will apply from January 1, 2024, for the Adriatic and Crete routes, we are implementing a strategy for purchasing emission allowances. Anticipated Financial Effects Physical risks The risk/opportunity analysis concluded that physical risks are less material compared to transitional risks. Nevertheless, it remains important for the Group, for the completeness of the assessment, to identify and understand the assets and revenues that may be potentially exposed to physical risks. Assets The assessment of assets and business activities potentially exposed to physical risks is integrated into the Group's broader risk and opportunity identification process (IRO-1) across the defined time horizons, as well as for three climate scenarios (1.5°C, 2°C, 3°C). This process incorporates analysis and modelling of potential financial impacts and examines how physical risks could lead to asset damage, increased operational costs, or changes in revenues. The data input includes operational and other financial metrics, as well as external climate databases, thus ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the potential impacts. According to the Financial Statements of 31/12/24, the analysis of the Group's main assets shows that their total undepreciated value amounts to 939.6 million euros, with the proportion of these (95.1%), being vessels. Considering that non material physical risks have been identified during the reporting period from the risk and resilience analysis, we can state that none of the Group’s assets (percentage over the total assets amounts to 0%) assessed as being located in areas with material physical risks during the reporting period up to 2040. Revenues According to the Financial Statements of 31/12/24, the total revenue of the Group amounts to 747.8 million euros. Given that no material physical risks have been identified during the reporting period using the process described above, and that the financial risks related to revenues are assessed as non-material, we conclude that there are 10 The Group does not use carbon credits.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 139 no significant revenue items (percentage over the total revenues amounts to 0%) assessed as being exposed to physical risks during the reporting period up to 2040. The Group will continue to assess and monitor physical risks in future periods, ensuring that any potential identified impacts will be appropriately reflected in the financial statements. Transitional Risks Based on the results of the resilience, risk and opportunity analysis, certain transitional risks received high ratings (impact × likelihood = 16 to 25 on the Group’s Risk Model scale) and therefore require special management. The Group further assessed the potential impacts of transitional risks on future financial performance and the position of its assets. This assessment includes examining the potential impacts of changes resulting from the transition to a low-carbon economy on revenues, operational costs, asset valuations, and the Group’s liabilities. The analysis of financial impacts examines short-term, medium-term, and long-term horizons, along with scenarios aligned with the Paris Agreement (1.5°C or 2°C). The Group considers that the 3°C scenario contradicts the global efforts outlined in the Paris Agreement, which aims to limit global temperature increase below 2°C, and therefore, this 3°C scenario is deemed less likely. As a result, the financial impacts of transitional risks are expected to have a more significant effect in a future scenario that aligns with the goals of the Paris Agreement. Therefore, the modeling of financial impacts focuses on scenarios aligned with more ambitious climate goals to align with current policy trends, investor expectations, and the Group's sustainability objectives. In the present section, the expected financial impacts of transitional risks/opportunities on the assets, business operations and revenues of Attica Group are presented. The results are used to identify assets exposed to transitional risks, plan necessary investments, and develop strategies to improve the Group's performance. Assets According to the Financial Statements of 31/12/24, the analysis of the Group’s main assets indicates that their total undepreciated value amounts to 939.6 million euros, with the overwhelming proportion of these (95.1%), being vessels. Although ships potentially contribute 100% to the total transitional risks by 2040 under the 1.5°C and 2°C scenarios, the Group does not anticipate that, within the next five years, it will have ships rendered non- operational or depreciated (0%) as a result of restrictions or caps on greenhouse gases. On the contrary, the Group is already taking mitigation and upgrade actions for a large portion of the fleet, in line with the Decarbonization Roadmap, in order to reduce the exposure to transitional risks. Regarding real estate (hotels), they represent 4.6% of the total undepreciated value of the Group's assets, and the estimated percentage of these that may potentially become depreciated or non-operational proportionally to the total assets is 0%. The total carrying amount of real estate assets for which energy consumption is based on internal estimates amounts to 0 euros, as the energy consumption data comes from direct measurement and is not estimated through internal methodologies or assumptions. Finally, currently, the total carrying amount of real estate assets by energy performance category is not available for the reporting period, as the necessary data for

The Group is exploring methodologies and processes for providing such disclosures in the future. Revenues The Group acknowledges that material transitional risks due to climate change can affect net revenues from various business activities, with impacts such as adjusting ticket prices to offset increased operating costs (regulatory, operational, and technological), leading to changes in market demand. There may also be implications from regulatory obligations, and any non-compliance could negatively affect reputation and, consequently, access to capital. During the reporting period, the Group estimates that net revenues, at a rate of 99.6%, which equals 744.5 million euros, may be at risk under the 1.5°C and 2°C scenarios. This portion of the revenues relates to the marine operations and is primarily associated with increased costs from carbon dioxide emissions pricing. To mitigate these risks, the Group has initiated actions to reduce its reliance on carbon-intensive activities (Decarbonization Roadmap), including investments in energy-efficient technologies and the adoption of alternative energy sources. These measures aim to reduce exposure to transitional risks, while simultaneously positioning the Group more favorably to leverage opportunities in a low-carbon economy. Liabilities The Group has identified liabilities related to significant transitional risks of 56.5 million euros, which mainly are related to compliance costs for evolving regulatory requirements and climate-related obligations. This includes debt obligations that financed part of the improvement vessels energy efficiency investments, in order to achieve alignment with future regulatory expectations. These obligations are reflected in the financial statements under Long-term and Short-term Debt Liabilities. By recognizing and addressing these financial obligations, the Group ensures proactive management of transitional risks and supports its long-term sustainability strategy. The Group, as a standard practice, reconciles the amounts arising from the risk analysis with the corresponding items in its financial statements, ensuring transparency and consistency between the assessment of climate risks and financial reporting. Anticipated financial benefits The Group expects financial benefits arising from initiatives related to the transition to a low-carbon economy. These include the anticipated cost savings from the implementation of climate change mitigation actions (Decarbonization Roadmap), the evaluation of the potential market size for new services, and the expected changes in net revenues. These elements highlight the Group's strategic approach to leverage opportunities arising from the transition to a low-carbon economy, while simultaneously enhancing operational efficiency and promoting long-term growth. In particular, the Group expects to achieve operational cost savings after the current five-year period because of ongoing and planned climate change mitigation actions, including energy efficiency measures and the transition to lower-emission technologies. These initiatives are anticipated to reduce fuel consumption and other operational expenses, contributing to the enhancement of financial performance over time.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 141 EU Taxonomy Report Introduction The EU Taxonomy of “environmentally sustainable” economic activities, is the European Union’s classification system of activities that can under certain conditions be considered as environmentally sustainable or as activities that enable the transition to an environmentally sustainable economy. Under the Taxonomy regulation, companies and organizations can attract funds to further develop or expand their economic activities, provided they meet certain criteria. Under the Taxonomy Regulation (2020/852/EU), the EU has outlined the criteria that determine the level of sustainability of eligible economic activities. Specifically, the European Union has established the following 6 environmental goals, the achievement of which will advance sustainable development within the Union: i. Climate change mitigation (CCM); ii. Climate change adaptation (CCA); iii. The sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources (WTR); iv. The transition to a circular economy (CE); v. Pollution prevention and control (PPC); vi. The protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems (BIO). The delegated acts adopted under the Taxonomy Regulation provide technical screening criteria which must also be met to constitute taxonomy alignment. At the moment of publication of the present, report the Taxonomy- eligible activities have been set out by 2 Delegated Acts currently in force. In 2021, the EU adopted the first Delegated Act 2021/2139 (EU) which set out activities and technical screening criteria for substantial contribution towards objectives 1-2 above, including DNSH criteria for other objectives. Moreover, in 2023, the second Delegated Act 2023/2486 (EU) was published with regard to activities significantly contributing to environmental objectives 3-6 above. The Taxonomy framework provisions that are effective on the date of the present report, require from in-scope companies to disclose the amount and proportion of activities which are eligible, non-eligible and aligned with the aforementioned 6 objectives as part of their total turnover, capital and operational expenditure and to perform related alignment assessments for all such activities. Additionally, all the quantitative information is accompanied by certain qualitative information for all objectives (1-6). The Group applied Regulation (EU) 2020/852 as supplemented with 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 activities that are eligible. Alignment with the said criteria is not an obligation for businesses under the EU Taxonomy framework. The Group has assessed its alignment with the technical screening criteria applicable to its activities based on the current interpretation resulting from legislation as well as the guidelines and related clarifications issued by the European Commission up to the time of publication of this report. However, the relevant directives leave room for interpretation and are constantly evolving to adapt to the needs of the process and the Union's climate goals.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 142 The EU's intention to gradually tighten the criteria to keep pace with its environmental goals is part of the framework. Therefore, eventual alignment of the economic activities of the enterprises with the Taxonomy based on the current criteria does not ensure their future alignment. The Group monitors the developments and will adjust its approach accordingly in terms of the assumptions and the methodology applied in order to report the required information in a clear and sensible manner. Environmentally Sustainable Activities In order to characterize an activity as environmentally sustainable in accordance with the Taxonomy Regulation (art.3, R.2020/852/EU), the following criteria will have to be met for each of the eligible activities: The activity contributes substantially to one or more of the environmental objectives set out in the Taxonomy framework The activity does not significantly harm any of the remaining environmental objectives The activity is carried out in compliance with the minimum safeguards The activity complies with technical screening criteria Activities contributing substantially to the Transition to a climate-neutral economy In the context of the 1st environmental objective of the Taxonomy for the achievement of Climate Change Mitigation, the legislation distinguishes certain subcategories of activities, among which are the activities that "support the transition" alternatively termed "transitional activities" as defined in art.10, para.2 of the EU Taxonomy Regulation (2020/852). Specifically, the framework of the Taxonomy includes the possibility that for some activities it is not practically feasible (for economic and/or technological reasons) to operate with zero greenhouse gas emissions at the moment. However, as not all criteria in all activities are linked to GHG emissions, activities that meet some criteria and therefore qualify as 'aligned' despite their perhaps significant emission levels, are categorized in the sub-category 'transitional activities'. This category includes three possible cases of activities as shown below: 1. Activities that have greenhouse gas emission levels that correspond to the best performance in the sector or industry; 2. Activities that do not hamper the development and deployment of low-carbon alternatives and 3. Activities that do not lead to a lock-in of carbon-intensive assets, considering the economic lifetime of those assets. The activities relating to sea transport of freight and passengers (6.10, 6.11) belong in the above-mentioned categories and depending on the actual criteria that they fulfill can potentially be characterized as either "sustainable" or "transitional". In any case, the said status is illustrated in the KPI calculation tables with special indicators in the last columns. Alignment with the criteria is continuously monitored, relevant data is published on an annual basis and included in the non-financial section of the annual financial statements. As part of this process, the Group publishes in the following section the key performance indicators associated with its activities eligible for Taxonomy purposes for
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 143 the financial year 2024. The detailed presentation of the indicators (KPI) can be found in the respective tables at the end of this section. Attica Group Activities The Group’s main activity involves sea and coastal passenger and freight water transport. In the past reporting years, Attica Group examined its performance within the Taxonomy framework on the basis of Delegated Regulation 2021/2139 (EU) and Delegated Regulation 2023/2486 (EU). The following economic activities were identified for the current reporting year: 6.10. Sea and coastal freight water transport (CCM) 6.11. Sea and coastal passenger water transport (CCM) 2.1. Hotels, holiday, camping grounds and similar accommodation (BIO) 6.10. Sea and coastal freight water transport Taxonomy activity description: This activity consists of the purchase, financing, chartering (with or without crew) and operation of vessels designed and equipped for transport of freight or for the combined transport of freight and passengers on sea or coastal waters, whether scheduled or not. Moreover, the activity includes the purchase, financing, renting and operation of vessels required for port operations and auxiliary activities, such as tugboats, mooring vessels, pilot vessels, salvage vessels and ice-breakers. Eligible Attica group activity description: The Group, regarding freight transport, owns and operates two (2) ro-ro vessels, as well as twenty-eight (28) conventional ro-pax ferries which are utilized in the transfer of both passengers as well freight. 6.11. Sea and coastal passenger water transport Taxonomy activity description: This activity consists of the purchase, financing, chartering (with or without crew) and operation of vessels designed and equipped for performing passenger transport, on sea or coastal waters, whether scheduled or not. The economic activities in this category include operation of ferries, water taxies and excursions, cruise or sightseeing boats. Eligible Attica group activity description: The Group, operates forty-two (43) vessels, out of which forty (41) are employed in passenger transport and more specifically, twenty-eight (28) of which are conventional Ro-Pax ferries and twelve (13) high-speed vessels.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 144 2.1. Hotels, holiday, camping grounds and similar accommodation Taxonomy activity description: This activity consists of the provision of short-term tourism accommodation with or without associated services, including cleaning, food and beverage services, parking, laundry services, swimming pools and exercise rooms, recreational facilities as well as conference and convention facilities. This includes accommodation provided by: (a) hotels and motels of all kinds; (b) holiday homes; (c) visitor flats, bungalows, cottages and cabins; (d) youth hostels and mountain refuges; (e) campgrounds and trailer parks; (f) space and facilities for recreational vehicles; (g) recreational camps and fishing and hunting camps; (h) protective shelters or plain bivouac facilities for placing tents or sleeping bags. This category does not include: (a) provision of homes and furnished or unfurnished flats or apartments for more permanent use, typically on a monthly or annual basis; (b) cruise ships. Conservation or restoration offsets of impacts defined at the stage of formal authorisation of the tourism activity are not considered as a contribution to conservation or restoration measures. Eligible Attica group activity description: The Group has established a subsidiary called Attica Blue Hospitality which owns and operates 3 resorts in Greece, namely: Naxos Resort Beach Hotel, Tinos Beach Hotel and Galaxy Hotel. All hotels are located in Aegean islands where the Group’s fleet operates and offer guests a memorable experience while participating in the development of the local economy. The former two hotels are part of Attica Group since 2021 but were first reported in the 2023 EU Taxonomy report. The last hotel was acquired (through the acquisition of its owning company) in the first half of 2024, located on the beach of Agios Georgios in Naxos, adjacent to Naxos Resort Beach Hotel. Assessment of compliance with the Taxonomy Regulation (2020/ 852/ ΕU) and the technical screening criteria (2021/2139/ΕU & 2023/2486/EU) With regard to the hotel economic activity, a thorough assessment of compliance with the technical screening criteria was not possible due to recent developments, including the ongoing reconstruction in Tinos and the acquisition of a new adjacent hotel in Naxos. Since both of the remaining transportation-related economic activities carried out by the Group, as differentiated in the EU Taxonomy, follow near identical technical screening criteria, assessment for the activities’ compliance will be presented jointly. A key element of the criteria for the climate objectives of Mitigation and Adaptation is the assessment of physical climate risks and vulnerability related to and affecting the activities in question. The Group is in the process of this assessment according to the relevant criteria and official clarifications, which is both lengthy and thorough. Therefore, as this process is expected to be completed in the future for all the economic activities, the Group's activities in 2024 were deemed eligible. Minimum Safeguards (MS) The minimum safeguards on internationally recognized human rights, labor and social standards, confirm the EU taxonomy alignment of Attica Group. The Company demonstrates due diligence to avoid any adverse effects and
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 145 fully complies with human and labor rights standards as described in the OECD Guidelines and the United Nations Guiding Principles. Attica Group Corporate responsibility The Group operates and develops aiming to generate added value for shareholders and employees, operating for the benefit of its partners and local communities and at the same time reducing where feasible its environmental footprint. Organizational structure has been created in the Group for the effective management of Corporate responsibility issues which is also important for collecting the necessary data for the evaluation of its performance, both internally and by its stakeholders. OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises The Attica Group is operating according to its Principles and the Regulation of Personal Conduct and Business Ethics, which has been developed taking into account the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. The Attica Group Regulation of Personal Conduct and Business Ethics reflects the Company’s commitment to the 10 Principles of United nations Global Compact. In 2020, the Regulation of Professional Conduct & Business Ethics was revised and includes our principles and commitments regarding responsible operation towards Society, including the commitment to recognize, manage and reduce potential or actual negative impacts to local communities where we operate due to our operations. Respecting Human and Labour Rights The Group respects the International Principles on Human Rights included, inter alia, in our Regulation of Professional Conduct & Business Ethics, in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the ten principles of the UN Global Compact, which we have accepted and signed, as well as in the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) for which we are certified and inspected. The Group, according to the Regulation of Professional Conduct & Business Ethics: Applies equal treatment regarding recruitment practices and appraise our employees fairly and objectively. Commits not to tolerate any retaliation towards employees who report any human rights violations. At the same time, we have developed a process to identify, prioritize and integrate Corporate Responsibility issues into local and international investment agreements. Fighting Corruption Attica Group demonstrates zero tolerance for corruption incidents and actively contributes to the achievement of goal “10 Fight against corruption in all its forms” as established by the United Nations Global Compact. As part of this effort, Attika Group has drawn up the “Anti-Corruption Regulation”, which has been communicated to all Group staff and is publicly available on our website. In the Regulation, we define measures to prevent and address incidents of corruption, including the prohibition of offering or accepting items of value greater than the
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 146 predetermined limit set by the Group, as well as the immediate termination of employment with employees who are proven to be involved in corruption incidents. Finally, the Regulation provides information on the reporting mechanism available to Group employees and provisions regarding the prohibition of retaliation against employees who submit complaints about such incidents. Taxation Taxation and compliance with the relevant legislation is an important issue for the Group and a significant priority for its Management. The taxation of revenues from shipping activities is subject to a special regime in accordance with L.27/75 and thus presents certain particularities both with regard to compliance and the prevention of violations of the legislation. However, the tax authorities in Greece have established since 2011 the obligation for companies to receive tax certificates, and as such all the companies of the Group that have undergone the relevant tax audit by a statutory auditor and have received corresponding certificates. More information on the management of tax issues is outlined in the "Tax Compliance Report" section in the relevant note to the financial statements. Competition Rules Fair competition is a driving force for the development of a strong market and Attica Group recognizes its importance as well as its own responsibility to operate according to the rules of competition. In this context, we make sure not to participate in illegal agreements or partnerships with competitors for price fixing, market sharing, etc. while we prohibit our employees from disclosing confidential information about the Group's activities or partnerships. At the same time, we carry out updates and trainings on issues related to competition law and follow all the necessary procedures in cooperation with the Hellenic Competition Commission to ensure that there are no violations of the relevant rules and applicable legislation. Further information is presented in the Group’s annual Responsibility & Sustainability Report, which is available in the Group’s website and in this Sustainability Statement.

Turnover KPI. The proportion of Taxonomy-aligned/eligible economic activities from the total turnover has been calculated based on the turnover from services corresponding to Taxonomy- aligned/eligible activities (numerator) respectively, divided by the total turnover (denominator). Specifically, the total turnover of the Group is presented in Note 8.1. ii. CapEx KPI. The CapEx KPI is defined as Taxonomy-aligned/eligible Capex (numerator) respectively divided by total Capex (denominator). The total capital expenditure contains the additions to property, plant and equipment as well as intangible assets and right-of-use assets during the fiscal year, before accounting for depreciation, amortization and any remeasurements, including those resulting from any revaluations and impairments. The total capital expenditure is presented in the Cash Flow Statement of the Group. Additionally, in the capital expenses the Group has included as aligned, costs related to the alignment of eligible activities that are part of a capital expenditure plan to improve the environmental footprint of the fleet as well as its energy efficiency. The Plan in question has a time horizon for the implementation of the individual investment costs between 2023 2025 and has been approved by the Group's Management. iii. OpEx KPI. The Opex KPI is defined as OpEx (numerator) related to aligned/eligible economic activities respectively divided by the total OpEx (denominator). The definition of EU Taxonomy for the operational expenses includes expenses for research and development, renovation of buildings, maintenance and repair, as well as any other direct expenses related to the day-to-day maintenance of property, plant and equipment. Total OpEx consists of direct non-capitalized costs relating to repair and maintenance (denominator). It does not include expenditures relating to the day-to-day operation of PP&E such as: raw materials, cost of employees operating the machine, electricity or fluids that are necessary to operate PP&E.

Specifically, it is committed to implementing advanced marine waste management systems to minimize water pollution, while investing in cleaner fuel technologies and Scrubbers to reduce gas emissionsaside from greenhouse gasesfrom its vessels. The Group reinforces compliance with international environmental regulations and adopts energy efficiency practices to reduce its carbon footprint. Its goal is to actively contribute to the preservation of marine ecosystem health and air quality in the areas of its operations, promoting sustainable shipping. All Group vessels with a capacity exceeding 400 tons are equipped with a “Shipboard Oil Pollution Emergency Plan”. This plan ensures an immediate and effective response to pollution incidents or risks, whether during fuel reception or due to accidents such as collisions or groundings. It details the required procedures and clearly defines those responsible for immediate action, aiming to minimize the environmental impact of potential incidents. The Group, in compliance with the ISM Code (International Safety Management Code), implements a Safety Management System (SMS), which includes measures for the prevention of marine and atmospheric pollution. In this context, clear procedures are adopted for waste management, oil spill prevention, ballast and water management, as well as improving energy efficiency. Through regular risk assessments, emergency preparedness plans, and strict adherence to environmental regulations, the Group takes proactive measures to limit pollution sources and reduce environmental risks arising from its activities. Additionally, environmental performance is continuously monitored and reviewed within the SMS framework. Actions Air pollution The Group's activities contribute to air emissions, primarily through the operation of ship engines, with a significant impact from sulfur oxides. In this context, measures are taken to reduce emissions by using fuel with a sulfur content of 0.1% (MGO) when vessels are docked for more than two hours, and fuel with up to 0.5% sulfur content (VLSFO) when in motion in Greek and international waters. Since 2020, all vessels without installed scrubbers use exclusively VLSFO. Additionally, regular maintenance and inspections are conducted on the machinery to ensure proper functioning, supported by certifications such as the International Air Pollution Certificate. Furthermore, onshore power supply at ports with long stays is being considered through the provision of shore power or batteries, in preparation for compliance with the Fuel EU Maritime Regulation starting from 1/1/2030. Water pollution
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 153 Recognizing the significant impact of uncontrolled discharge of liquid waste on the marine environment, we have taken measures to protect it. All vessels hold an International Sewage Pollution Prevention Certificate (ISPP Certificate) in accordance with applicable regulations, and the discharge of treated waste within ports is prohibited, exceeding legal requirements. Our vessels are equipped with certified sewage treatment systems, which ensure the quality of effluents, including parameters such as coliform bacteria and suspended solids. Furthermore, treated sewage is delivered to authorized reception facilities onshore. Finally, the Group fully complies with regulations for the management of bilge water and ballast water, minimizing the risk of environmental pollution 11 . Metrics and targets Targets Attica Group, in compliance with regulatory requirements, is committed to adhering to established emission limits and implementing environmental measures to reduce water and air pollution. The objectives it follows are derived from international and European regulations, ensuring that its maritime activities remain within the permissible environmental impact limits. Reduction of Air Pollution In terms of air pollution, Attica Group will fully comply with the Sulfur Emission Control Area (SECA) regulations that will come into effect on 01/05/2025 for the Mediterranean, limiting sulfur oxide (SOx) emissions. The Group will adhere to the goal of using marine fuels with a sulfur content of up to 0.1%, as stipulated by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the European Union. At the same time, it is evaluating alternative compliance solutions, such as the use of scrubbers (exhaust gas cleaning systems) and the adoption of alternative low-carbon fuels, in accordance with regulatory framework requirements. Additionally, the Group adheres to the nitrogen oxide (NOx) emission limits as defined by the MARPOL Annex VI Regulations, with the aim of reducing air pollution and the impact on coastal areas. Attica Group's new generation vessels comply with Tier III requirements, ensuring lower NOx emissions in controlled areas. The quantities of pollutant gas emissions (SOx and NOx) do not exceed any of the limits set by the Regulation (EC) No 166/2006, according to 2024 measurement estimates. Despite this, and due to the upcoming implementation of the Sulfur Emission Control Area (SECA) in the Mediterranean, the Group has chosen to publish the SOx gas emissions in this report. Management and Reduction of Marine Pollution For water pollution, Attica Group follows the provisions of MARPOL Annex IV and V for the management of sewage and solid waste. According to these regulations, the company manages sewage through approved treatment systems, preventing their uncontrolled discharge into the marine environment. Additionally, it implements strict procedures for the management of oil residues (sludge), ensuring they are delivered to authorized disposal facilities. 11 The above initiatives implemented relate exclusively to corporate activities and do not include the broader value chain.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 154 Particular emphasis is also placed on preventing ballast water pollution, as the company complies with the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments (IMO). Its vessels are equipped with certified ballast water management systems, protecting marine biodiversity. Attica Group has set the goal of completely avoiding oil and petroleum product spills. This goal aligns with international maritime requirements and ensures the implementation of strict prevention and management procedures, minimizing the risk of marine pollution. Pollution indicators The internal pollution measurement collection process at Attica Group is based on a systematic monitoring of fuel consumption across its fleet. Each vessel records daily fuel data, such as the amount of fuel consumed and the type of fuel used, as well as the operational conditions of the engines and systems that affect emissions. This data is collected through the fuel management system and transferred to a central system of the Group for analysis. The methodology followed for calculating SOx emissions is based on the standards of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), using emission factors for the fuels consumed by the vessels. Subsequently, the collected data and the SOx emissions calculations are published in the Group's annual Report. The calculations are based on fuel consumption and the corresponding sulfur (SOx) emissions, following the IMO methodology, which determines emissions per unit of fuel. These data are evaluated in conjunction with the relevant environmental guidelines and regulations, and the final report is submitted to the competent authorities in accordance with the SECA and MARPOL regulations. E2 Pollution Indicators 2024 Unit Emissions to air by pollutant (SOx) 3,553.6 kg Oil Spills 0 cubic meter Operating expenses incurred in the reporting period in conjunction with major incidents and deposits (pollution- related) 54,500 Capital expenses incurred in the reporting period in conjunction with major incidents and deposits (pollution- related). 0 Financial impacts Attica Group has installed scrubbers to reduce sulfur oxide (SOx) emissions. The use of scrubbers allows for the use of HSFO instead of the more expensive VLSFO, resulting in a reduction of operational costs. This brings long-term financial benefits as it ensures compliance with potential future regulatory requirements, avoiding possible monetary fines or legal liabilities, while demonstrating its commitment to environmental responsibility. This initiative has a very high operational impact, and it is very likely, with a short-term time horizon.

The Group continues to implement strict protocols for monitoring and managing environmental impacts, ensuring that its activities comply with the applicable regulatory framework. There are also pending cases from previous years, which have not yet been finalized, and these are being handled by the Legal, Insurance, and Corporate Affairs Department of the Group in order to secure the best possible outcome for the Group. In general, in the event of a fine imposed for environmental matters, the relevant information will be recorded and disclosed in accordance with the prescribed financial and regulatory compliance procedures. For 2024, fines totaling €54,500 were paid, related to envir onmental pollution.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 156 Circular Economy [E5] Impacts, risks and opportunities management Processes related to resource use and the circular economy Environmental policy The Group fully aligns with the European Union legislation and has an Environmental Policy that includes waste management issues. Specifically, the European Union has established a comprehensive legal framework for the management of maritime waste, aiming at the protection of the marine environment and ensuring sustainable practices in shipping. A key pillar of this legislation is Directive (EU) 2019/883, which pertains to port reception facilities for the delivery of waste from vessels. Its goal is to ensure that vessels calling at EU ports deliver their waste to suitable facilities, preventing marine pollution. Additionally, Directive 2008/98/EC, also known as the 'Waste Framework Directive,' sets out the basic principles and priorities for waste management in the EU, including maritime waste. Meanwhile, the European Union continuously promotes new legislative initiatives to enhance the safety of transporting materials that may cause pollution. The overall EU legal framework for managing maritime waste aims to reduce pollution, promote sustainable practices, and ensure the protection of the marine environment. Actions Some of the Group's actions for waste management focus on recycling, reuse, responsible management of hazardous materials, and reducing the use of raw materials, with the aim of sustainable development and environmental protection. As part of the reuse of consumables: Loading pallets are returned to suppliers for reuse. Damaged fabrics, such as sheets, towels, and pillowcases, are repurposed for cleaning as absorbent materials. Used coffee grounds are re-used to create soap. Responsible management of hazardous materials is also crucial to the Group's strategy Liquid and solid hazardous waste, such as lubricants, biodegradable kitchen waste, light bulbs, electronic equipment, and toner, are processed by specialized waste management companies with strict environmental specifications. Recycling is also a key priority: Special bins for the collection of recyclable materials (paper, plastic, ink cartridges, electronic equipment, light bulbs, batteries) in offices and ships. In the direction of reducing the use of materials: Use of recycled raw materials and printing with recycled paper. Part of the electronic equipment comes from refurbishment. Installation of dosing machines to prevent the overconsumption of cleaning products.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 158 Methodologies used to calculate waste Regarding the calculation of waste, the process followed involves the collection of waste by external partners directly from vessels for measurement and recording. The waste is recorded by category (recyclables, organic, etc.), and then the quantities are measured by volume. Finally, all the data is sent back to the Group through the annual reports, where they are detailed, along with the subsequent management method. For 2024, all waste quantities are measured in cubic meters, and it is not possible to convert them into units of tons or kilograms. Resource Outputs Waste Inventory The Attica Group generates various types of waste during its maritime activities, such as used oils and lubricants, fuels, solvents, plastic packaging, and food waste. Additionally, waste is produced from vessel maintenance, cleaning of external surfaces, and the management of wastewater and electronic waste. As previously mentioned, all waste, whether hazardous or non-hazardous, is carefully recorded and monitored to ensure compliance with environmental regulations for their safe management. For this purpose, the Group collaborates with certified entities, ensuring proper treatment and disposal of the waste, in accordance with all necessary safety procedures. Types of non-hazardous waste: Paper, cardboard, and packaging plastics (mainly from food and beverages). Glass and metal containers (used for fuels and food). Food waste from the ship's cabins and restaurants. Fabrics or clothing that are not contaminated. Management The non-hazardous waste generated on the vessels is collected, sorted, and transported to appropriate recycling or disposal facilities. Types of hazardous waste: Hazardous waste Type 1 (Toxic and extremely hazardous waste) Used oils and lubricants from the vessel’s equipment Fuels and solvents from cleaning and maintenance processes Asbestos from the vessel’s equipment
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 159 Management: These wastes are collected and stored in special containers for safe transport and disposal at certified hazardous waste management facilities. Hazardous Waste Type 2 (Moderately Hazardous Waste) Cleaning agents with chemical substances Fluorescent lamps and other lighting devices Batteries from the ship's electronic equipment Management: These waste materials are managed with strict storage and transportation protocols and are sent for processing or recycling at specialized facilities that are certified for hazardous waste treatment. Hazardous Waste Type 3 (Low-Level Hazardous Waste) Heavy metals that may be present in damaged components Residues of tires or plastics resulting from the recycling of ship items Management: These waste materials require special management to prevent environmental contamination. They are stored at controlled locations on the vessel and are sent to specialized facilities for processing or safe disposal. Own workforce [S1] Strategy Material impacts, risks and opportunities The Group's human resources consist of marine and office employees, as well as employees of the Group's hotels. Marine employees constitute the largest part of the workforce and consist of Officers and vessel crew. The office employees coordinate the Group's operations through the Executive Departments (Commercial, Financial, Marine Operations and Sustainability, Administration & Transformation). Regarding employees throughout the value chain, both those directly belonging to the Group and those working at the Group's facilities without being part of the core human resources, are directly or indirectly affected by the impacts of the Group's activities. At the same time, third-party company employees, such as cleaning crews, suppliers, maintenance technicians, and support staff, are active in the Group's offices. Positive impacts The Attica Group has developed and implemented a series of strategies and practices that enhance its positive impacts on both the environment and its employees. In the context of privacy protection, the Group ensures
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 160 confidentiality and protects the personal data of employees and passengers, thereby enhancing trust in the organization. Privacy protection is not only a legal obligation but also a value that promotes the creation of a culture of respect and ethical behaviour, strengthening relationships with customers and partners. Additionally, the Group fully complies with the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) and has adopted a Safety Management Code, which includes regulations that exceed legal requirements. This commitment to exceeding basic requirements results in the prevention of accidents and the protection of the health and safety of employees at all levels of the Group's activities. The Group regularly organizes seminars and training programs to address hazardous situations and manage emergencies, thereby enhancing the safety culture across the entire spectrum of its activities. Besides employee training, regulations are also implemented for air renewal in ship garages and for proper leak management, providing a safe and healthy working environment. Negative impacts Slippery surfaces in the vessel’s garage pose a potential safety hazard for employees, as they may cause falls, which can lead to injuries such as concussions, fractures, or more serious accidents. At the same time, hazardous gases emitted from vehicle exhausts, such as carbon monoxide and other pollutants, accumulate in the enclosed spaces of the garage, endangering the respiratory health of employees. Prolonged exposure to these gases can cause respiratory problems, headaches, dizziness, and, in extreme cases, lead to serious health damage to the marine personnel. Risks Due to the nature of the Group's activities, there are inherent risks for passengers and employees on the ships. If these risks are not properly managed, accidents, legal liabilities, and damage to the Group's reputation may occur, affecting its financial stability and profitability. Additionally, the costs from accidents, such as medical expenses, compensations, and legal costs, as well as expenses for privacy protection, may increase due to violations or changes in legislation. This may burden the Group with additional regulatory risks and reduce customer trust, negatively impacting its image and financial performance. Finally, regarding the Privacy Protection Policy, its implementation requires continuous investments in technological means, training, and compliance. However, violations or changes in legislation may pose challenges to the effectiveness of the policy, affecting regulatory risks, reputation, and customer trust. The Attica Group operates in Greece, which is considered a low-risk country due to its stable political, economic, and regulatory frameworks, which it follows. As a result, there are no activities that expose the Group's employees to significant risks related to labor issues such as incidents of forced or compulsory labor. Policies The Group has established procedures and policies, such as the Whistleblowing Procedure, the Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics, the Corporate Governance Code, the Policy Against Discrimination,
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 161 Violence and Harassment at Work, which are available on the Group's corporate website, as well as an Occupational Health and Safety Management System in accordance with the ISO45001 Standard. The Attica Group aligns with the Principles of the United Nations Global Compact, respecting the protection of internationally recognized human rights. It ensures that it does not participate in violations of the above, recognizes the freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining. Furthermore, it eliminates all forms of forced and compulsory labor, enforces zero tolerance for child labor, and reduces discrimination in the workplace. Below are indicative examples of the Policies and Procedures of the Attica Group: Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics The Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics defines the fundamental principles and values that govern all business activities of the Attica Group. It concerns the way of working at all levels of the hierarchy, serving as a guide for proper business conduct and binding all Group employees. It also aims to implement high standards of corporate and social responsibility, which are critical for the Group's sustainable business success. Furthermore, the Code aligns with the guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative, the European Sustainability Reporting Standards for corporate responsibility, and the 10 universal principles of the UN Global Compact, aiming to protect human rights, ensure optimal working conditions, and combat corruption. It describes the values and principles of the Attica Group, promoting respect, integrity, and adherence to its market obligations. Finally, it forms the basis of the Group's Manuals and Procedures, which all employees must be aware of and apply. The Human Resources & Culture Management Department is responsible for its implementation and management. Operating regulation The Regulation records the basic principles, policies, and procedures that are applied, including the Internal Control System (ICS), and aims to comply with the applicable legislation and regulatory provisions. It covers, among other things, the basic operating principles of the Board of Directors (BoD), the responsibilities of its members, the organizational structure of the Group, Risk Management, as well as the procedures concerning the recruitment and evaluation of senior management executives. It also includes procedures for disclosing transactions of persons with managerial duties, compliance with obligations concerning transactions with related parties, the prevention of conflicts of interest, proper public information, as well as the periodic evaluation of the ICS, the training of BoD members and executives. Finally, it refers to the sustainable development policy. The Corporate Governance and Compliance Department is responsible for its implementation and management. Policy Against Discrimination, Violence and Harassment at Work The Policy Against Discrimination, Violence and Harassment at Work aims to promote equal opportunities for employees and combat all forms of discrimination, maintain and establish a work environment that respects, promotes, and ensures human dignity, and has zero tolerance for any kind of violence and harassment at work, explicitly including gender-based violence and harassment and sexual harassment. In this context, the Group
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 162 has undertaken assessment of the risks of violence and harassment at work, measures to prevent, control, limit, and address these risks, actions to inform and raise awareness among staff, provision of information to employees about the rights and obligations of the Group's companies and employees, appointment of a reference person ("liaison") responsible for guiding and informing employees on such issues. The heads of all Departments, Sectors, and Teams have the specific responsibility to ensure that this policy and all measures taken are adhered to and implemented by their respective staff. Recipients of such behavior should address and express their concerns to the Group's Transparency Committee. Complaints can be submitted via email to conductline@attica-group.com, by mail, or through the electronic contact form available on the Group's corporate website. The Human Resources & Culture Management Department is responsible for its implementation and management. Whistleblowing Procedure The Attica Group, committed to the values of integrity, transparency, and accountability, has been participating in the UN Global Compact since 2008 and has co-signed the "Call for Action" initiative. It has adopted a Whistleblowing Procedure, allowing any interested party, within or outside the Group, to report potential violations of corporate policies, procedures, or legislation, either anonymously or with their identity disclosed. The Transparency Committee manages all reports confidentially, strictly maintaining confidentiality in the collection and processing of personal data. Complaints can be submitted via email to conductline@attica-group.com or by mail, with clear, complete, and substantiated information about the nature, time, and involved persons. Mechanism for Handling Employee Complaints/Reports Upon receipt of the complaint, the Transparency Committee (TC) confirms receipt to the sender, provided that contact details are given. It then proceeds to evaluate the complaint and decides on communication to the relevant authorities. Indicatively, it may: assign the management of the complaint to the Administration or the relevant services/departments of the Group, further investigate the complaint, archive the complaint. During the investigation, the TC has full access to the Group's records, and all departments are required to provide the necessary information. Additionally, the TC evaluates whether it is necessary to inform the individual against whom the complaint is directed. In cases where the complaint is assigned to the Administration, the TC is informed of the actions taken as well as the final outcome. All actions and results are archived along with relevant supporting documents. TC may assign the investigation to an external partner when: the investigation is not feasible by the TC itself, members of the Board of Directors are involved, the investigation exceeds the boundaries of the Group,
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 163 there is a potential conflict of interest. The individuals responsible for the investigation submit a written report upon the completion of the investigation, while interim reports can be communicated orally or in writing upon request by the TC. The TC reserves the right to re- examine archived complaints, as well as those assigned to the Group's Top Management for resolution. The Whistleblowing Procedure falls under the responsibility of the Transparency Committee. Human rights The Group follows the International Human Rights Principles, which are included in the Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics, the International Declaration of Human Rights, and the ten principles of the UN Global Compact, which it has signed, as well as the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC), with which it is certified and audited. Although a due diligence process for human rights in the value chain is not yet implemented, the Group is committed, at least for its own activities, based on the aforementioned Principles, not to hire employees below the legal age limit, to maintain zero incidents of forced labor in its operations, and not to employ workers through organizations or businesses involved in illegal activities, such as trafficking or other forms of forced labor. In the Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics, it is stated that the Group operates according to programs and policies which: • Provide competitive wages, additional benefits, and fair working conditions. • Recognize the “freedom of assembly” of employees. • Ensure humane and safe working conditions. • Prohibit forced or child labor. • Promote a non- discriminatory work environment. Incident remediation Non-compliance with the principles of the Code of Ethics constitutes a serious workplace offence, as it violates the ethical and professional values that govern the operation of the Group. In cases where a violation is identified, the consequences may include the imposition of disciplinary measures, such as dismissal from work or termination of cooperation with the Group. In particularly serious cases, when the violation endangers corporate integrity or public safety, sanctions may arise, which could lead to legal proceedings and criminal liabilities for those responsible. Work environment and human resources Contribution to Job Creation The Group strives to create direct job opportunities, while its activities indirectly support hundreds of jobs across the value chain and in the maritime sector.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 164 Work-life balance To ensure the work-life balance of employees, there is compliance with relevant legislation on working hour limits, monitoring of working and rest hours of Officers and crew members at sea, and full compensation for overtime according to the legislative framework. Additionally, the full salary of female office employees during maternity leave is covered, exceeding legal requirements. Optimal living conditions for the crew The Group provides suitable living conditions for the crew, such as cabins above the main deck and recreational areas on the vessels. Employee information All newly hired office employees are informed about topics such as the Code of Ethics, the Anti-Corruption Policy, the Policy Against Discrimination, Violence and Harassment at Work, the Corporate Governance Code, and the Privacy Protection Policy (GDPR). They are also informed about the Emergency Response Plan, basic procedures such as leave and training, and issues of Responsible and Sustainable Development, including the Group's annual Responsibility and Sustainability Report. Health and Safety The Occupational Health and Safety Policy expresses our Group's commitment to creating a safe working environment for both office employees and ship crews and is posted on the Group's corporate website. For office employees, compliance with relevant regulatory requirements is ensured, and seamless consultation on safety and well-being issues is promoted. The Health, Safety, and Environment Department of Shore operations is responsible for its implementation and management. For onboard personnel, each vessel has a Safety Committee that represents all work areas and organizes at least monthly meetings on Health, Hygiene, and Safety issues, while related matters are covered by international and national conventions, as well as sectoral or collective agreements. Health and Safety on vessels The Group is committed to creating a safe working environment on vessels. In this context: It is ensured that candidates for enlistment possess certificates of competence in accordance with relevant legislative requirements. Personal protective equipment and related training are provided to all employees. Training and internal drills on health, hygiene, and safety issues are conducted. The "Behavioral Based Safety Program" is implemented, which is based on behavior assessment to enhance the safety of the crew and passengers. Regular alcohol consumption checks are conducted for all vessel employees.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 165 Health and Safety in Offices Beyond ensuring a safe working environment on vessels, the same attention is applied to the offices. Specifically: A certified Occupational Health and Safety Management System according to the ISO 45001 standard is implemented, and health and safety incidents involving employees and subcontractors in the offices are monitored. Collaborations with subcontractors require mandatory insurance for all their employees with a state social security agency. A Health, Safety, and Environment Team has been established for strategy planning, as well as a Health, Safety, and Environment Department for implementing protection measures for employees and buildings. Additionally, a comprehensive Safety Measures Plan has been developed, with communicated emergency response instructions and updates on health and wellness issues. A procedure for reporting concerns and risks via an electronic platform (HSe-service Help Desk) is implemented, and health and safety incidents are investigated through the Emergency Management Plan. Furthermore, a Fire Safety Team and an Emergency Care Team have been designated for effective risk management. Special safety measures are also taken for vulnerable groups of employees, such as pregnant women and night shift workers, while ensuring accessibility for people with disabilities (PWD) both in offices, with the provision of ramps, parking spaces, PWD toilets, and wheelchairs, and on ships, where special infrastructures are implemented for the safe boarding, movement, and service of passengers with disabilities or reduced mobility. Zero tolerance for discrimination Based on the Code of Ethics and the Policy Against Discrimination, Violence and Harassment at Work, the Group demonstrates zero tolerance for any form of violence and harassment in the workplace. Risks that may lead to discrimination, such as gender, age, or religion, are identified and assessed, and equal treatment is ensured in the recruitment and evaluation processes of employees. Employees are trained in human rights protection and anti-discrimination issues, and there is no tolerance for retaliation against those who report incidents. Violators of the policies may face criminal penalties or termination of employment. Additionally, the Group operates based on clear programs and policies that ensure absolute respect for human rights, strictly prohibiting any form of forced or child labor, and all necessary measures are taken for the prevention and timely addressing of such phenomena. Regarding employee evaluation, factors such as experience, personality, performance, skills, and qualifications in relation to employment (such as salaries and career development) are considered. Furthermore, to avoid any form of harassment (e.g., sexual), comments among employees on these issues are prohibited, while a work culture based on mutual respect and human dignity is promoted. Communication with Human Resources During the reporting period, an online stakeholder survey was conducted to record expectations related to the Responsibility and Sustainability Report. Through this survey, continuous communication and interaction with
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 166 the Group's employees are maintained to ensure the consistent creation of value for them. The communication channels include the stakeholder survey, employee opinion survey (every 1-2 years), annual performance evaluations, events/meetings, training sessions, negotiations with employee unions (through SEEN), and the corporate intranet platform (Intranet). The Group has its own employee union, FAROS, and fully respects the right of employees to participate in unions and professional organizations, as stated in the Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics. Officers and vessels’ crew participate in unions according to their specialty and through them in the Panhellenic Seamen’s Federation (PNO), while office employees are members of Panhellenic Federation of Shipping and Tourism Employees (PASENT). It is noted that in 2024, there were marine employees who did not work during strikes or work stoppages by PNO, which concerned issues related to collective labor agreements, overwork of Officers and crew, and others. Additionally, following the principles of the UN Global Compact, the Group supports and respects human rights, ensures freedom of association, and non-discrimination in the workplace. In 2023, two new initiatives were launched: the "Seafarer's Portal" platform, through which ship employees are provided with information on personal details such as leave, payroll, training programs, and necessary documents, the "OneAttica onboard" channel, which informs employees about corporate news and announcements, while also offering training and entertainment content. Responsible for maintaining communication between the Group and the employees are the Crew Department and the Human Resources & Culture Management Department. Additionally, there is a Whistleblowing Procedure through which any employee can report a potential violation of corporate policies, procedures, or legislation, either anonymously or with their identity disclosed. As will be further analysed, the receipt and management of complaints are handled by the specially designated Transparency Committee of Attica Group. The management of all reports is conducted confidentially, and the collection and processing of any personal data are carried out with absolute discretion. Impact Management and complaints All office employees are required to report any violation of the Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics, such as fraud, theft, or other illegal activities. Regarding the crews on our vessels, they can report violations of the Employee Guidebook through the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) complaints procedure or directly to the relevant authorities, and they have the option to submit anonymous complaints during external MLC inspections. Additionally, a Whistleblowing Procedure is implemented, which is available on the corporate website and managed by the Group's Transparency Committee. Any Stakeholder can report potential violations through various communication methods (email, complaint form, or personal contact with the Transparency Committee), with full confidentiality and discretion. The Committee informs the Board of Directors annually about the complaints it receives. The the Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics has been developed with the guiding principles and rules that define the responsible operation of the Group. The Code applies to all employees and is available on the corporate intranet (Intranet) OneAttica and the corporate website. It should be noted that all employees
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 167 with indefinite and fixed-term employment contracts are required to follow the Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics as well as the Employee Guidebook. Actions The Group ensures the protection of maternity by providing full salary compensation to office employees as a maternity bonus during childbirth and maternity leave, exceeding legal requirements. Regarding leave, employees are supported by policies that adhere to national and international labor standards. Additionally, the Group actively participates in responsibility actions, promoting sustainability and social welfare. Health and safety are also a priority, with Attica Group implementing comprehensive safety protocols, providing necessary personal protective equipment, and conducting training to ensure a safe working environment for all personnel. Furthermore, the Group is committed to protecting equal opportunities, ensuring best practices in recruitment, promotions, and other workplace activities, promoting a culture of respect and inclusion. The Group has created the digital platform ONE IDEA, so that employees can submit proposals and ideas for improving the way of working. Additionally, we maintain continuous communication with ship employees to enhance interaction and idea exchange. Some of the actions that the Group has designed and aims to implement through the Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Strategy 2024-2026 are as follows: Improve our performance on Responsible and Sustainable Development issues related to Employees by 7%. Include predefined and clearly communicated dismissal criteria for office employees in the Employment Regulation or the Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics. Implement 15-day updates on wellness and healthy lifestyle topics (e.g., smoking, nutrition, exercise, mental health). Metrics and targets Employees (S1) 12 Ratio 2024 Unit Percentage of employees paid below the adequate wage threshold in Greece 0 % 12 New hires and turnover do not include university students and cadets of the Merchant Navy’s Officer and Coast Guard academies on board Group’s vessels, as they complete their internships. Also excluded are marine employees that are hired within the same year, as this process follows a standardized framework of dismissal and rehiring process. For the calculation of seafarer turnover, those who were rehired were excluded, and only seafarers with one enlistment period during the year were retained. Subsequently, cases where the reason for departure was mutual consent, death, illegal absence, or contract termination were selected. Employee indicators are primarily calculated based on FTEs (Full-Time Equivalents), while indicators based on Headcount (HC) are marked with (*). Human resources data are presented based on both FTEs and HC, ensuring an accurate depiction of the distribution and employment of personnel.

Third-party employees include: For the Commercial Pillar, the external call center (EVALUE). For the Hotel Management Department, the "Kanellopoulos" team, which is responsible for the maintenance of hotel housekeeping on the vessels. For the IT&T Department, external providers/partners who offer outsourced services. Employees of third-party suppliers and partners are required to adhere to the Business Partners Code of Conduct. Employee Representation Agreements Regarding employee representation, there are unions related to the sector. These unions provide employees with a platform to support their rights and negotiate working conditions, while promoting cooperation between employees and employers to enhance workplace well-being. Specifically, for our Group, 100% of employees are covered by individual employment contracts, which are based on sectoral collective agreements. These individual contracts ensure transparency and the protection of employee rights, while also aligning with the sectoral collective agreements in force in the industry. Individual contracts provide a clear and legally binding framework for employment relations, ensuring working conditions, remuneration, and other employee rights, while also enhancing compliance with applicable legislative regulations and collective agreements. Diversity In Senior Management, the person responsible for promoting diversity within the Group is the Director of Human Resources & Culture Management.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 171 Adequate Wages The Group follows a remuneration system that is in accordance with the applicable sectoral collective labor agreement. Any wage differences between men and women in the offices are explained by factors such as work experience, academic background, and specialization, while no wage differences are observed between men and women in the ship crews, as wages depend exclusively on the specialty. Additionally, the payment of wages is ensured within the predetermined time limits, without deductions for disciplinary offences or other withholdings beyond those legally required. In the year 2024, 28 lawsuits were filed against the Group's companies, concerning labor claims exceeding €30 thousand, and 17 cases were concluded, which involved lawsuits against the Group's companies, with labor claims exceeding €30 thousand. Social protection The Group respects the right of employees to protect their personal data and implements strict measures for their security. Specifically, it is certified for the Information Security Management System according to the ISO 27001:2013 standard and follows policies and procedures that comply with national and European legislative requirements. Appropriate control and monitoring measures have also been established at critical access points in offices and ships, such as servers and UPS, implementing closed-circuit television (CCTV) and controlled access via security cards. Access to surveillance material is restricted only to employees of the Health, Safety, and Environment Department. Additionally, we do not monitor workspaces, except for certain points on ships for security reasons without collecting personal data, and we do not retain personal documents such as IDs, passports, or other personal items. All employees who are part of the Group's human resources are covered by social security, either through public programs or additional benefits provided by the Group. This coverage ensures the protection of employees' income in cases of illness or unemployment from the moment they start working in the company. Furthermore, social security extends to cases of work-related accidents, disabilities acquired during work, as well as the provision of parental leave and retirement benefits. Through these benefits, the Group ensures the well-being of its employees, offering a safe working environment and enhancing their social protection. Work-life balance Parental leave granted to employees is an integral part of the employment agreements concluded with the Group and is based on the applicable legislative framework.

The implementation of these measures enhances the safety of passengers on board, contributes to reducing the risk of injury, and strengthens their positive travel experience. Risks The Group ensures the safety of passengers and crew. This is achieved by adhering to procedures and taking the necessary measures. These measures include the implementation of safety regulations, placing signs in hazardous areas, providing the required equipment for the crew, and conducting continuous training and familiarization for their safety in accordance with relevant international regulations. It is understood that non- compliance with the above poses a financial risk to the Group, with potential consequences including regulatory penalties, legal costs, and damage to its reputation. Failure to mitigate these risks could lead to increased insurance premiums and loss of business opportunities. Opportunities Regarding marketing, the Group's contracts with advertisers include terms that emphasize responsible marketing practices. The adoption of sustainable marketing practices can promote innovation within the framework of marketing strategies and processes, leading to innovative solutions for the benefit of the Group. Therefore, the adoption of sustainable marketing practices can drive innovation in the marketing strategies and processes of the Attica Group. Categories of Affected Stakeholders The affected stakeholders are the passengers of the vessels and, to a lesser extent, the hotel customers in the Group's portfolio. Impacts, risks and opportunities management Policies Privacy The Group ensures the confidentiality of information, recognizing the importance of building trust-based relationships with customers and protecting their personal data. For example, it is certified according to the international standard ISO 27001:2013 for the Information Security Management System and has established a Data Protection Team (before the EU Regulation was implemented) to ensure compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Additionally, the Group has formed a Security Breach Response Team to investigate personal data breach incidents and evaluate related policies, procedures, technological tools, and security measures. Customers are informed about the protection of their personal data and its use, and a
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 173 cooperation agreement has been signed with an external partner to assume the role of Data Protection Officer (DPO). The Personal Data Protection Policy is available on the Group's corporate website. All stakeholders (customers, employees, etc.) can contact the DPO for any matters related to personal data processing via email at DPO@attica-group.com or by postal mail. Additionally, the Group has adopted a Data Breach Incident Response Plan, along with dedicated phone numbers and an email address for reporting suspected or confirmed breaches. Finally, employees are trained on the GDPR regulation, and an Additional Processing of Personal Data Agreement is signed in new cooperation contracts. Stakeholder engagement The Group ensures that responsibility topics are systematically included in communication to integrate responsibility into the behavior of its customers. Specifically, in 2024: Images supporting the acceptance of equality and diversity were incorporated into various promotional activities through social media, websites, and mobile applications. Various informational topics (e.g., related to diversity, the environment, volunteering, youth violence, etc.) were included in the Group's magazines distributed for free on vessels. Informational messages with social, environmental, and cultural content were communicated on vessels equipped with relevant screens. These messages included topics such as social support actions implemented or participated in by the Group, like the volunteer employee cleanup initiative in collaboration with Aegean Rebreath, as well as third-party actions related to the environment, biodiversity, etc. Regular updates on diversity and environmental issues were provided during relevant thematic Global Days, such as the International Day Against Racism, International Day for Women in Maritime, International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, etc. In addition, various communication channels are used to inform customers in a timely manner in case of cancellation or delay of scheduled sailings, such as the websites www.superfast.com, www.bluestarferries.com and www.hsw.gr, notifications via phone calls, SMS, or Viber messages, updates through port representatives, social media, radio, various journalistic and informational online portals, and email notifications. Additionally, in case of a delay while at sea, passengers are informed with audio announcements in at least Greek and English, stating both the estimated time of arrival and the reason for the delay. Responsible marketing The Group's products and services are advertised responsibly to ensure that the communication material is fair, legal, honest, reflects reality, does not promote or endorse stereotypes, and does not offend the diversity of individuals. The Group has incorporated into its Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics, as well as in the Responsible Marketing and Communication Code, its compliance with the Hellenic Code of Advertising & Communication, the adherence to which is mandatory for the collaborating advertising companies. A Responsible Marketing and Communication Code has been developed for commercial activities to be included
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 174 in communication and advertising contracts. The Marketing and Sales Departments monitor the accuracy of the messages and advertisements for products and services, while the websites of Blue Star Ferries, Superfast Ferries, Hellenic Seaways, and Anek Lines are designed to be accessible for individuals with special needs (including those with visual impairments). Equal treatment Based on the Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics, the Group applies an equal treatment policy towards all customers and partners, with particular attention and sensitivity in transactions with socially vulnerable groups. With the aim of strengthening the customer-centric approach, the Group ensures equal service for all customers. To this end, infrastructure has been created to facilitate access for people with disabilities in all facilities and ships (excluding cargo ferries). Additionally, cabins for people with disabilities are not charged. Furthermore, there is direct communication regarding the number of people with mobility issues traveling on each route, so that the availability of a wheelchair can be planned in advance. Customer satisfaction - Communication with passengers The Group monitors customer satisfaction and has established mechanisms for communication and the submission of comments and complaints from customers. These include the Group's call center and the customer service email address, written communication from customers, face-to-face meetings with customers, printed and electronic customer satisfaction questionnaires, complaint forms, and questionnaires for the A la Carte restaurants located at various points on our vessels, addressing quality and service issues. Additionally, the Group has a special form filled out by the Reception in case of oral complaints or incidents noticed, complaint forms in the restaurants on all ships, service evaluation devices (Private Review) on all ships, and the external partner's call center, where a Net Promoter Score survey is conducted for the offered services. The data collected is used to evaluate passenger satisfaction and implement specific improvement actions. The aggregated "Passenger Observation Reports" are sent monthly to the Captains, Heads of Departments, and the catering contractor onboard our ships. These reports are discussed in meetings to determine corrective and preventive actions, if necessary. Since 2011, the Group has been rewarding its customers through the seasmiles Loyalty and Reward program. This program offers its members unique privileges, gifts, special offers, and high-quality services, further strengthening the trust and satisfaction relationship with our customers. Use of internationally recognized standards In Attica Group, ensuring passenger safety is a top priority. For this reason, SOLAS regulations (International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea) are strictly adhered to, ensuring that the ships are equipped with the necessary infrastructure for firefighting and fire protection. In addition to technical specifications, crew members
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 175 aboard the ships are trained to be fully familiar with the fire protection systems and to be ready to respond in case of an emergency. At the same time, to ensure the confidentiality and protection of information, the Group has been certified for its Information Security Management System in the Data Center, according to the international standard ISO 27001:2013. This certification confirms its commitment to safeguarding personal and corporate data, ensuring that information management is carried out with high levels of security, in line with international best practices and regulatory standards. Actions Action plan The Group has several processes included in its strategic action plan. One of these is ensuring passenger safety on vessels through inspections by the Merchant Vessel Inspection and the establishment of a Safety Committee aboard the ships. Additionally, the Group has created an Emergency Response Team, which guides the ship and communicates with third parties. SOLAS regulations are fully met, and informational videos on the use of life jackets and life-saving equipment are displayed. Lastly, to maintain permissible limits, the Group operates two certified reservation systems. There is a procedure for handling infectious/contagious diseases, which includes notifying the relevant authorities in case of an incident, disinfecting the area, and specifically sorting the items the patient has come into contact with. A plan of action for dealing with Missing Onboard Persons has also been developed, which is detailed in the policies in a previous chapter. Moreover, the contractors comply with the requirements of the ISO 9001 Quality Management System and ISO 22000 Food Safety Management System, and there is a Mystery Passenger process in which at least 17 passenger sections were evaluated. Additionally, the confidentiality of information is ensured, an action detailed in the policies in a previous chapter, and the protection of personal items is provided. Passengers are offered the possibility of securely storing assets, money, and valuables worth less than €500 at the vessel’s Purser Office. Furthermore, there are increased checks in the luggage areas on routes with high passenger traffic, and passengers are compensated in the event of luggage or vehicle damage or loss during boarding/disembarking from the ship or during the journey due to the crew's responsibility. Injury incidents For the year 2024, no serious accident incidents requiring large-scale remediation actions arise. Remediation actions Attica Group remediates incidents through monitoring customer satisfaction via the available communication channels already analyzed above (e.g. customer satisfaction questionnaires, complaint forms, etc.). Communication mechanisms serve to mitigate or prevent significant negative impacts on customers. Attica Group also monitors customer satisfaction through the communication channels already mentioned (e.g.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 176 customer service email, etc.). The information received is collected and consolidated Passenger Observation Reports are generated monthly. Following relevant meetings, potential impacts on passengers are managed with the aim of developing actions where necessary. The determination of the appropriate action to address potential significant negative impacts on customers is implemented through the consolidated Passenger Observation Reports. Our customer satisfaction monitoring channels generate “Passenger Observation Reports” that are sent monthly to Captains, Heads of Departments and catering contractors and form the basis for decision-making and strategic action. In particular, corrective actions resulting from these reports are implemented immediately and monitored to ensure their effectiveness. Metrics and targets Targets The Group is committed to and implements an annual program for the needs of local communities related to sports, culture, education or health. One main goal is to continue implementing up to five non-commercial actions per year (i.e. exclusively for public benefit), which was achieved in 2024. The Group also continues to implement actions/activities to raise awareness of society on issues of Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability (e.g. environmental issues, human rights). The Group has set a goal to improve its performance on Responsible and Sustainable Development issues with respect to Customers by 8% by 2026. Engaging with customers regarding target setting The Group consistently prioritizes the protection of the safety and health of its customers and passengers, as well as providing the best possible travel experience to meet their needs and expectations. Customers participate in shaping and defining the Group's goals through customer satisfaction surveys conducted at least once a year and through feedback via passenger observation reports. The most recent data did not impact the goals initially set. Business Conduct [G1] Governance The role of administrative, supervisory, and management bodies Attica Group follows the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code of the Hellenic Corporate Governance Council. The Board of Directors is responsible for making strategic decisions, managing corporate affairs, and approving the Group’s long-term strategy. It consists of 3 to 15 members, who are elected by the Shareholders General Assembly for a three-year term, and it is responsible for managing relations with the Group’s Social Partners. These relationships are taken into account when making decisions.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 177 One of the Board members has work experience in non-financial reporting matters, including ESG issues (Mr. P. Dikaios, Chief Executive Officer and Deputy BoD Chairman / Executive Member). The Board members elect the Chairman, the Vice Chairman, and the Chief Executive Officer. Although it is not prohibited by the Articles of Association, the positions of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer are not held by the same person. The Chairman of the Board has executive responsibilities on all matters concerning the Group, a practice that has been deemed beneficial for the Group’s sustainability and strategy. The Board of Directors is responsible for approving and reviewing Regulations and Policies related to responsible operations, while the Chief Executive Officer can approve policies and procedures related to organizational or operational matters. The Suitability Policy for the Members of the Board of Directors defines the principles and criteria for their selection, replacement, and renewal of their term. The suitability of the members is assessed based on individual criteria, such as knowledge, skills, experience, independent judgment, and time availability, as well as collective criteria, ensuring that the Board has sufficient experience and knowledge in the Group’s areas of activity, including shipping, strategic management, financial reporting, auditing, and risk management. Furthermore, the Board of Directors ensures that the company’s values and strategic planning align with its corporate culture. The company’s values and purpose are translated into practice, influencing policies, practices, and behaviors within the company at all levels. The Board and senior management set the standards for the characteristics and behaviors that shape the corporate culture and lead by example. At the same time, they use tools and techniques to integrate the desired culture into the company’s systems and processes. Impacts, risks and opportunities management Policies and business culture Corporate Governance Code The Corporate Governance Code is a set of principles that introduce self-regulatory provisions, sometimes exceeding the mandatory legal requirements. It is based on the voluntary acceptance and implementation of rules recorded as specific practices that define management, monitor and control corporate functions, and regulate relationships with shareholders and stakeholders (e.g., suppliers, customers, public administration). Additionally, it facilitates the achievement of corporate objectives and the management of emerging risks. Through its principles, the Code aims to ensure the effective implementation of these guidelines, enhance the credibility of the Hellenic capital market, and improve the competitiveness of Greek businesses, ultimately promoting transparency. A comprehensive corporate governance framework contributes to building trust in the business environment and can effectively bridge the interests of businesses, citizens, and society in a beneficial way. The Corporate Governance Code is available on the Group’s corporate website.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 178 Whistleblowing procedure As mentioned in a previous chapter, all office employees are required to report any violation of the Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics, such as fraud, theft, or other illegal activities. Shipboard employees can report violations of the Employee Guidebook through the Maritime Labor Convention (MLC) grievance procedure or directly to the relevant authorities, while they also have the option to submit anonymous complaints during external MLC inspections. Additionally, we have implemented a Procedure for Submission and Investigation of Complaints, which is available on the corporate website and managed by the Group Transparency Committee, operating independently of the Management. Any Stakeholder can report potential violations through various communication channels (email, complaint form, or direct contact with the Transparency Committee) with full confidentiality and discretion. The Committee informs the Board of Directors annually about the complaints received. Furthermore, all employees have the option to contact the Human Resources & Culture Management Department for guidance or advice (although there is currently no formal process for handling advisory cases). They may also submit written concerns to the Corporate Governance and Compliance Department if they have doubts about a particular action or in case of an actual or potential conflict of interest. Attica Group has established a corruption incident reporting mechanism, ensuring transparency and accountability across all its business activities. The Transparency Committee, consisting of the Chairman of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, the Internal Audit Director, and the Director of Legal, Insurance & Corporate Affairs, is responsible for managing and reviewing corruption-related matters. Any employee who detects or suspects cases of corruption is obliged to report them to the Transparency Committee through official communication channels. Reports must be clear, well-documented, and include details such as the nature of the violation, the time it occurred, and the individuals involved. The Group encourages the responsible use of this mechanism, ensuring anonymity protection and a fair investigation of each report, thus contributing to maintaining an ethical and transparent work environment. Anti-Corruption policy The Group has adopted an anti-corruption policy, implementing a Regulation that clearly defines commitments and prohibitions for its employees. Although this framework has not yet been actively communicated to the partner network, it remains available on the corporate website and applies to all employee activities. New Employee Training in Business Ethics The “improving culture” informational handbook has been distributed internally to employees on board, and it is part of the onboarding package for new hires. The handbook includes key rules of professional conduct towards colleagues and clients, as well as information on crew duties and relevant regulations. All newly hired office employees are required to accept the Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Code of Ethics.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 179 Finally, the Group implements interactive e-learning training courses for office employees, including new hires, covering topics such as Corporate Responsibility & Sustainability, Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Code of Ethics, Anti-Corruption Regulations, Human Rights, and Equal Treatment. Managing relationship with suppliers The Group has established a Suppliers/ Business Partners Code of Conduct, which outlines the principles and policies regarding relationships with suppliers and contractors. Within this framework, we have defined responsibilities for responsible operations, including topics such as combating bribery, corruption, and money laundering, prohibiting child and forced labor, supporting the freedom of union rights, and environmental protection. All suppliers, including new ones, are required to accept and sign the Code of Ethics. Furthermore, suppliers are evaluated and categorized into four risk categories based on relevant expenses, and those who refuse or fail to comply with the Code are classified as high-risk. The procurement process includes strict policies to avoid conflicts of interest, prohibiting employees involved in procurement from accepting gifts or other benefits from suppliers. For the evaluation of bids and supplier selection, specific criteria for responsible operation have been established, which also apply to suppliers with fewer than 50 employees or those based outside the Athens area. A breach of the Code is considered a violation of the contract, and the company reserves the right to take corrective or legal actions. Attica Group recognizes its ethical obligation to promote responsible operation principles and incorporates contractual clauses on responsibility matters in all new contracts with suppliers (both domestic and international) as well as in renewals. These clauses cover the assurance of human rights, environmental protection, working conditions, and anti-corruption efforts, while requiring acceptance and compliance with the Suppliers/ Business Partners Code of Conduct (including subcontractors). In 2023, a training program was implemented for suppliers through the United Nations Global Compact online platform, focusing on responsible operation topics, such as the protection of human rights and the environment. Additionally, an annual evaluation of suppliers with expenses over €10,000 is conducted, using specific criteria in six areas. Although responsibility criteria are not currently applied, the evaluation process is important for ensuring the quality and compliance of suppliers with the Group's responsible practices. Weighting Price/Payment Terms 25% Compliance with Specifications/Quality 20% Timely Delivery 20% Problem Resolution/Collaboration 20% Financial Status/Credit worthiness 10% Acceptance of Supplier/Partner Code of Ethics 5% Total 100%
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 180 Payments to suppliers Payments to suppliers are determined on a case-by-case basis, as they depend on the specific circumstances of each transaction. Due to the nature of this approach, it is not possible to formulate a single, generalized statement that covers all payment situations. The process is adapted according to agreements, collaboration terms, and business needs, ensuring smooth operations and mutually beneficial relationships with suppliers. At Attica Group, payments to suppliers are based on specific commercial terms agreed upon in each contract or transaction, ensuring compliance with financial processes as well as the sustainability of the supply chain. This approach allows greater flexibility in managing cash flows and maintaining effective partnerships, meeting industry requirements and the unique conditions of each supplier. Prevention and Detection of Corruption and Bribery The Group's Anti-Corruption Regulation imposes strict restrictions on bribery and unethical practices. It explicitly prohibits employees and those acting on its behalf from offering or accepting any gift or item valued over €100 annually from social partners, with the intent to secure personal or business benefit. Anyone involved in corrupt activities is immediately dismissed from the Group, regardless of potential criminal liabilities. To address such incidents, the Transparency Committee has been established, composed of senior executives, with the purpose of investigating complaints submitted through specific communication channels. At the same time, it is ensured that employees who make such reports are protected from retaliation, as any retaliatory action violates the Regulation of Professional Conduct and Business Ethics. The Group has also implemented an integrated system for disclosing significant transactions involving persons with managerial responsibilities and individuals with close ties to them. These transactions are recorded in a special obligations list and published both on the corporate website and the Athens Stock Exchange. In parallel, a modern ERP system has been adopted, enhancing transparency and the efficiency of internal processes. As part of its broader strategy, the Group has signed the "Call for Action" initiative of the UN Global Compact, strengthening its commitments to business ethics and transparency. Therefore, the Group has established and implements a Complaints Submission and Investigation Process, which is available on the corporate website in both Greek and English. Employees have the opportunity to report actual or potential corruption incidents via mail, a dedicated email address, or an electronic report submission form. These reports are forwarded to the Group's Transparency Committee, which consists of the Chairman of the Audit Committee, the Internal Audit Director, and the Director of Legal, Insurance, and Corporate Affairs. The Transparency Committee ensures the protection of employees who submit reports, preventing any retaliatory actions against them. Any such actions are considered a violation of the Group's Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct.

In 2023, a two-hour training session was held for the Board members on Responsible and Sustainable Development, with an emphasis on the outcomes of COP28 in the United Arab Emirates and the requirements of the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). This training is repeated every six months. Additionally, the Board members received training on Corporate Governance and Regulatory Compliance, including topics such as the annual evaluation and composition requirements for the Board, adequate gender representation, monitoring of regulatory frameworks, and the process of preparing regulatory compliance reports.

Political influence and interest representation activities policy The Group plays an active role in the maritime community through its collaboration with the SEEN, INTERFERRY, and other institutional bodies, participating in legislative consultations and government bodies such as port authorities. Additionally, the Group has developed partnerships with the PNO, signing collective labor agreements for seafarers, as well as general labor agreements with the PASENT. No financial or in-kind political contributions were made, adhering to the policy of transparency and neutrality in political processes. The main themes of the Group's activities in political influence focus on strategic issues of importance to the passenger shipping industry, which are discussed within the framework of SEEN.

The relevant accounting policies, whose summary is presented below, have been applied consistently in all presented periods. Cases which concern a greater degree of judgement and complexity or cases where the accounting estimates and assumptions could materially affect the consolidated financial statements are provided in Note 2.3. The Group has prepared the financial statements in compliance with the historical cost principle, with the exception of investments in subsidiaries and financial derivatives measured at fair value, the consistency principle, the materiality principle and the accrual basis of accounting principle. In addition, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and revised International Accounting Standards (IAS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and their interpretations as issued by the IASB's Interpretations Committee (IFRIC). In addition, from 1.1.2024, under European legislation, shipping was included in the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS), under which all shipping companies are required to purchase and surrender emission allowances for emissions of their vessels. In this context, the Group's accounting policy for emission allowances is to recognize emission allowance as intangible assets when they are purchased at cost and is presented in the Financial Statements under Other current Assets or Other non-current assets depending on their estimated delivery date relative to the reporting date of the financial statements. Every month, the cost is recognized in the income statement based on the fuel consumption made at the acquisition price if the corresponding allowances have been purchased, otherwise at the market trading price in the month when they are exercised. The corresponding liability is recognized at the trading price in other current liabilities if the emission allowances have not been purchased. On 12.7.2024, the General Meeting approved a Stock Option Rights Allocation Program for the acquisition of Company shares (the “Rights” and the “Program,” respectively) and the allocation of the Rights to eligible beneficiaries. The fair value of the services provided by executives granted stock option rights is recognized in accordance with IFRS 2 as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income, with a corresponding increase in equity under "Stock Option Reserve," during the period in which the services are received in exchange for the granted rights. The total expense of the stock option rights during the vesting period is calculated based on the fair value of the granted rights as of the grant date. The fair value of the stock option rights is measured at each reporting period using an appropriate valuation model to reflect the number of stock option rights for which the performance conditions of the program are expected to be met.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 202 In preparing its financial statements for the period ending as at 31.12.2024, the Group has chosen to apply the accounting policies which ensure that the financial statements comply with all the requirements of every applicable Standard or Interpretation. The Management considers that the current financial statements present fairly the entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. The General Meeting of Shareholders has the right to modify the financial statements, approved by the company’s Board of Directors. 2.3. Significant accounting policies and main sources of uncertainty of accounting estimates The Management must make judgements and estimates regarding the value of assets and liabilities which are uncertain. Estimates and related assumptions are based mainly on past experience. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and related assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. The accounting estimates that the Management has adopted in implementing the Company’s accounting policies and have the most significant effect on the Company’s financial statements are as follows: The Company measures investments in subsidiaries at fair value. In order to define fair value of subsidiaries, the present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to arise from them is defined. This method is based on estimates and underlying assumptions. The most significant of these estimates relate to the compan ies’ transportation performance, international fuel prices, capital expenses and discount rate. In addition, the Management examines the following items annually, on the basis of assumptions and estimates: - useful lives and recoverable values of the vessels - the amount of provisions for staff retirement compensation, for disputes in litigation and for labor law disputes. On the financial statementspreparation date, the sources of uncertainty for the Company, which may have an effect on the stated assets and liabilities values, are related to the: - Tax unaudited years of the Company, to the extent that it is possible for additional taxes and surcharges to arise from future tax audits. - Estimates on the recoverability of doubtful debts. - Potential losses from pending litigations. The above estimates are based on the knowledge and the information available to the Management of the Group until the date of approval of the financial statements for the period ended as at 31.12.2024.

New Standards, Interpretations, Revisions and Amendments to existing Standards that are effective and have been adopted by the European Union The following new Standards, Interpretations and amendments of IFRSs have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), are adopted by the European Union, and their application is mandatory from or after 01/01/2024. Amendments to IFRS 16 “Leases: Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2024) In September 2022, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments to IFRS 16 “Leases” which add to requirements explaining how a company accounts for a sale and leaseback after the date of the transaction. A sale and leaseback is a transaction for which a company sells an asset and leases that same asset back for a period of time from the new owner. IFRS 16 includes requirements on how to account for a sale and leaseback at the date the transaction takes place. However, IFRS 16 includes no specific subsequent measurement requirements for the transaction, specifically where some or all the lease payments are variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate. The issued amendments add to the sale and leaseback requirements in IFRS 16, thereby supporting the consistent application of the Accounting Standard. These amendments will not change the accounting for leases other than those arising in a sale and leaseback transaction. The amendments do not affect the consolidated and separate Financial Statements. The above have been adopted by the European Union with effective date of 01/01/2024. Amendments to IAS 1 “Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2024) The amendments clarify the principles of IAS 1 for the classification of liabilities as either current or noncurrent. The amendments clarify that an entity’s right to defer settlement must exist at the end of the reporting period. The classification is not affected by management’s intentions or the counterparty’s option to settle the liability by transfer of the entity’s own equity instruments. Also, the amendments clarify that only covenants with which an entity must comply on or before the reporting date wi ll affect a liability’s classification. The amendments require a company to disclose information about these covenants in the notes to the financial statements. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments do not affect the consolidated and separate Financial Statements. The above have been adopted by the European Union with effective date of 01/01/2024. Amendments to IAS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows” and IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”: Supplier Finance Arrangements (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2024)

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 In May 2023, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued Supplier Finance Arrangements, which amended IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The new amendments require an entity to provide additional disclosures about its supplier finance arrangements. The amendments require additional disclosures that complement the existing disclosures in these two standards. They require entities to provide users of financial statements with information that enable them a) to assess how supplier finance arrangements affect an entity’s liabilities and cash flows and b) to understand the effect of supplier finance arrangements on an entity’s exposure to liquidity risk and how the entity might be affected if the arrangemen ts were no longer available to it. The amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 are effective for accounting periods on or after 1 January 2024. The amendments do not affect the consolidated and separate Financial Statements. The above have been adopted by the European Union with effective date of 01/01/2024. 2.4.2. New Standards, Interpretations, Revisions and Amendments to existing Standards that have not been applied yet or have not been adopted by the European Union The following new Standards, Interpretations and amendments of IFRSs have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), but their application has not started yet or they have not been adopted by the European Union. Amendments to IAS 21 “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2025) In August 2023, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued amendments to IAS 21. The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates that require entities to provide more useful information in their financial statements when a currency cannot be exchanged into another currency. The amendments introduce a definition of currency exchangeability and the process by which an entity should assess this exchangeability. In addition, the amendments provide guidance on how an entity should estimate a spot exchange rate in cases where a currency is not exchangeable and require additional disclosures in cases where an entity has estimated a spot exchange rate due to a lack of exchangeability. The amendments to IAS 21 are effective for accounting periods on or after 1 January 2025. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have been adopted by the European Union with effective date of 01/01/2025. IFRS 9 & IFRS 7 “Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2026) In May 2024, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments which amended IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” and IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”. Specifically, the new amendments clarify when a financial liability should be derecognised when it is settled by electronic payment. Also, the amendments provide additional guidance for assessing contractual cash flow characteristics to financial assets with features related to ESG-linked features (environmental, social, and governance). IASB amended disclosure requirements relating to investments in equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income and added disclosure requirements for financial instruments with contingent features that do not relate directly to basic lending risks and costs.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 205 amendments are effective from annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union. Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards-Volume 11 (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2026) In July 2024, the IASB issued the Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards-Volume 11 addressing minor amendments to the following Standards: IFRS 1 ‘First -time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards’, IFRS 7 ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosures’, IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’: IFRS 10 ‘Consolidated Financial Statements’, and IAS 7 ‘Statement of Cash Flows’. The amendments are effective for accounting periods on or after 1 January 2026. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union. Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 “Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2026) On 18 December 2024 the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued amendments to IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” and IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures” to help companies better report the financial effects of nature-dependent electricity contracts, which are often structured as power purchase agreements (PPAs). Nature-dependent electricity contracts help companies to secure their electricity supply from sources such as wind and solar power. The amount of electricity generated under these contracts can vary based on uncontrollable factors such as weather conditions. The amendments allow companies to better reflect these contracts in the financial statements, by a) clarifying the application of the ‘own-use’ requirements, b) permitting hedge accounting if these contracts are used as hedging instruments and c) adding new disclosure requirements to enable investors to understand the effect of these contracts on a company’s financial performance and cash flows. The amendments are effective for accounting periods on or after 1 January 2026, with early application permitted. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union. IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2027) In April 2024 the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued a new standard, IFRS 18, which replaces IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’. The objective of the Standard is to improve how information is communicated in an entity’s financial statements, particularly in the statement of profit or loss and in its notes to the financial statements. Specifically, the Standard will improve the quality of financial reporting due to a) the requirement of defined subtotals in the statement of profit or loss, b) the requirement of the disclosure about management-defined performance measures and c) the new principles for aggregation and disaggregation of information. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union. IFRS 19 “Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures” (effective for annual periods starting on or after 01/01/2027) In May 2024 the International Accounting Standards Board issued a new standard, IFRS 19 “Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures”. The new standard allows eligible entities to elect to apply IFRS 19 reduced
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 206 disclosure requirements instead of the disclosure requirements set out in other IFRS. IFRS 19 works alongside other IFRS, with eligible subsidiaries applying the measurement, recognition and presentation requirements set out in other IFRS and the reduced disclosures outlined in IFRS 19. This simplifies the preparation of IFRS financial statements for the subsidiaries that are in-scope of this standard while maintaining at the same time the usefulness of those financial statements for their users. IFRS 19 is effective from annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Group will examine the impact of the above on its Financial Statements, though it is not expected to have any. The above have not been adopted by the European Union. 3. Accounting Policies 3.1. Significant Information on Accounting Policies 3.1. Consolidation 3.1.1. Consolidated financial statements Subsidiaries are fully consolidated (full consolidation) using the purchase method from the date when control is acquired and cease to be consolidated from the date when such control ceases to exist. The acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group is accounted for by using the purchase method. Acquisition cost of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets given, the shares issued, and the liabilities assumed at the date of the exchange, plus any costs directly attributable to the transaction. Specific assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired in a business combination are measured at acquisition at their fair values irrespective of the participating interest percentage. Acquisition cost exceeding the fair value of the separate assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the total cost of the purchase is less than the fair value of the separate assets acquired, the balance is recognized directly in the income statement. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated, unless the transaction provides evidence of impairment, of the transferred asset. The accounting policies of subsidiaries are amended where necessary to be consistent with those adopted by the Group. 3.1.2. Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities controlled by another Company. An investor controls an investee when the investor is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 207 Investments in subsidiaries are initially recognized at cost, while they are subsequently measured at fair value, with any differences recognized in other comprehensive income. If an impairment occurs, it is charged to the income statement for the current year in compliance with IFRS 9. 3.1.3. Investments The investments are classified according to their scope as follows: a) Long-term investments These investments are recognized at cost and are recorded as non-current assets. Subsequently, investments in subsidiaries are measured at fair value. At the end of the administrative period, it is reviewed whether there is an indication of impairment of the investment. In case the investment has to be impaired, the amount of the impairment is transferred to equity. b) Investments held for sale These investments are initially recorded at cost plus any cost directly attributable to the investment. These investments are measured at fair value and gains or losses are recorded in equity until they are disposed of or considered impaired. When these investments are disposed or considered impaired, gains or losses are recognised in the income statement. 3.1.4. Associates Associates are companies on which the Group can exert significant influence but which do not fulfil the conditions to be classified as subsidiaries or joint ventures. Investments in associates are initially recognized at cost and are subsequently consolidated using the equity method. At the end of each period, the cost increases by the proportion of the investing company in the changes in equity of the investing company and decreases by the dividends received from the associate. The Group’s share in the profits or losses of associated companies after the acquisition is recognized in the income statement, while the share of changes in reserves after the acquisition is recognized in the reserves. The cumulated changes affect the book value of the investments in associated companies. When the Group’s share in the losses of an associate is greater than or equal to its participation in the associate, including any other doubtful debts, the Group does not recognize any further losses, unless it has covered liabilities or made payments on behalf of the associate or those that arise from ownership. Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated according to the percentage of the Group’s participation in the associates. Unrealized losses are eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. The accounting policies of associates are adjusted to be consistent with those used by the Group.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 208 3.1.5. Joint arrangements Investments in joint ventures are classified according to IFRS 11 as “Joint Operation”, or “Joint Venture”. The classification is based upon each participating parties’ rights and obligations arising from the joint arrangement. Joint operation is a joint arrangement where the parties who have joint control over the arrangement have rights to the assets and liabilities associated with the arrangement. A joint operation is a joint arrangement where the parties who have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Joint operations are accounted for using the proportional method for financial statements of company. In particular, the company recognizes in the financial statements its assets, its liabilities, it’s share in the proceeds of the sale of production from the joint operation, and its expenses according to the effective proportions in the financial statements of the Company. Joint Ventures coordinate all the ship-owning companies of the Group, regarding the participating vessels, for a common service along the domestic and Adriatic routes. In particular, Joint Ventures are responsible, under a contractual agreement with the ship-owning companies of the Group, for revenue and common expenses of the vessels that operate along the domestic and Adriatic routes. At the end of every month, the Joint Ventures transfers to the ship-owning companies, revenue and expenses incurred on their behalf. Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and joint ventures are eliminated by the Group's share interest in joint ventures. The Joint Ventures are consolidated in the Group’s Financial Statements using the full consolidation. The accounting principles of joint ventures are consistent with those adopted by the Group. 3.1.6. Tangible assets Tangible assets are stated at acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment loss. Acquisition cost includes expenses that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the assets. Subsequent expenditures made with the aim of increasing the expected revenues of the vessels, or extensive additions and improvements, as well as major maintenance costs, are considered a separate fixed asset and are depreciated over a period of up to 5 years. Expenditures for adapting the ships to safety regulations and safe management requirements are considered a separate fixed asset and are depreciated according to the remaining life of the vessels. All other expenses are charged to the income statement when incurred, as they are considered as repairs and maintenance costs. Land is not depreciated. Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of every asset.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 The estimated useful lives are as follows:
1. Conventional vessels 35 years
2. High speed vessels 25 years
3. Ηydrofoil-flying dolphins 15 years
4. Buildings 30-40 years
5. Harbor establishments 10 years
6. Motor Vehicles 5 years
7. Furniture and fixtures 5 years
8. Hardware equipment 3 years
Useful life of vessels, whose maturity exceeded 30 years at the date of their acquisition by the Group, is extended for further 9 years. The residual value of the vessels according to management estimates is estimated about at 20% of the acquisition cost while for high-speed and flying dolphins to 15% and 10% respectively. For the other fixed assets, no residual value is calculated. The residual value and the useful life of fixed assets are reviewed annually. For buildings undergoing extensive renovation, the useful life is determined according to management estimates of its remaining use. Once the sale of a tangible asset is completed, the difference between the selling price and the net book value less any expenses related to the sale, is recognized as gain or loss in the income statement.
3.1.7. Intangible Assets 3.1.7.1. Goodwill Goodwill is the difference between the acquisition cost and the fair value of the asset and liability of the subsidiary / associate as at the acquisition date. At the time of acquisition, the company recognizes the goodwill arising from the acquisition as an asset and records it in the cost. This cost is equal to the amount at which the consolidation cost exceeds the companys share, assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquired company. After the initial recognition, goodwill is measured at the cost less the accumulated losses due to a decrease in its value. Goodwill is not depreciated, but is examined annually for any reduction in its value pursuant to IAS 36.
ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 209
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 210 To implement impairment tests, the amount of goodwill is allocated to cash flow generation units. The cash flow unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates independent cash flows and represents the level at which the Group collects and presents financial data for internal reporting purposes. The impairment for goodwill is determined by measuring the recoverable amount from the cash flow units to which goodwill is associated. Impairment losses related to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods. If the acquisition cost is less than the share of the company in the equity of the acquired company, then the former remeasures the acquisition cost, evaluates the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquired company and directly recognizes profit or loss as a gain any difference remains after remeasurement. 3.1.7.2. Trademarks Trademarks are recorded acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment loss. The useful life of trademarks is 15 years and depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis. The cost of trademarks includes expenses related to the development and registration of the trademarks in Greece and abroad. Business combination trademarks are valued at acquisition costs and the useful life has been determined as indefinite. The Group has recognized the trademark of Hellenic Seaways Maritime S.A. since its acquisition as well as the trademark of ANEK upon the completion of its merger with ATTICA GROUP. The useful life of the trademarks has been determined as indefinite and is reviewed annually for impairment. 3.1.7.3. Software Computer software programs are recognized at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment loss. The initial cost includes, in addition to the licenses, all installation, customizing and development expenses. The expenses which enhance or extend the performance of computer software programs beyond their original specifications are recognized as capital expenditure and are added to the original cost of the software. Useful life of computer software is 8 years and depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis. 3.1.8. Impairment of assets/ Reversal of tangible assets impairment At every reporting date the assets are assessed as to whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the entity estimates the recoverable amount of the asset, namely the present value of the estimated future cash flows that are expected to flow into the entity by the use of the asset. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash generating unit is the higher of its fair value less associated costs of selling the asset and its value when used by the entity.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 211 Impairment losses are recognized as expenses in the income statement. For Group’s vessels, in particular, when such indications exist, they are assessed for potential impairment. In such case their recoverable amount is determined as the higher of their fair value, estimated by independent valuators, less costs of disposal, and their value in use is estimated by calculating the expected discounted cash flows. When for an impairment loss recognized in prior periods for an asset other than goodwill, there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the assets recoverable amount since the impairment loss was recognized, and those impairment loss indicators may no longer exist or may have been decreased, an impairment loss reversal occurs up to the initial acquisition cost. 3.1.9. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower value between cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price less applicable variable selling expenses. The cost of inventories is determined using the monthly weighted average market price. 3.1.10. Trade receivables Trade receivables are short-term receivables to be collected in less than 12 months from the date of recognition and are initially recognized at fair value. Subsequently, if the collection is delayed, trade receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate, less any impairment loss. The Group recognizes a provision for loss against expected credit losses for financial assets that are not measured at fair value through profit or loss. The expected credit losses are based on the difference between all the contractual cash flows required and all the discounted cash flows that the Group expects to collect. Regarding trade receivables and contractual assets, the Group applies the simplified approach to the calculation of expected credit losses. Therefore, at every reporting date, provisions for loss for a financial instrument is measured at an amount equalling the expected credit losses over its lifetime. The amount of the provision is recorded in the income statement. 3.1.11. Revenue The revenue of the Group is derived mainly from cargo, passengers and vehicles fares, from chartering and from on board sales of goods and services. The Group also has income from credit interest and the Company from dividends.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 212 3.1.12. Revenue from passengers and vehicle fares Revenue from fares is recognised when the customer travels. Government subsidies for subsidized routes are recognised in the relevant period and are included in “ Sales”. 3.1.12.1. Revenue from on board sales of goods and services Revenue from sales of goods and services on board is recognized upon delivery of goods or services. Regarding the services provided by the Group through concessions, revenue is recognized when the invoice is issued for services relating to the period. All the above revenue is recognized when the collection of the related receivables is reasonably assured. 3.1.12.2. Interest income Interest income is recognised on an accrual basis using the effective interest method without offsetting any withhold income tax. 3.1.12.3. Income from dividends Dividends are recognized as income when approved from the authorized body of the company that distributes the dividends.3.1.12.4. Income from chartering Income from chartering vessels is recognized based on the accrual principle, according to the relevant contracts. 3.1.12.5. Revenue from sales of hotel services Under IFRS 15, revenue is recognized at a given point in time when the obligation to perform the service is met. Under the existing revenue recognition accounting policy, the Group recognize revenue for services when they are rendered. 3.1.13. Financial liabilities The basic financial instruments of the Group are as follows:

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 213 a) Bank loans Loans are initially recorded at cost, which is the actual value of the received consideration, plus potentially arising related expenses. Subsequently, they are valued at the carrying amount based on the effective interest rate. b) Hedging financial instruments All financial derivatives are recognized and measured at fair value. Financial derivatives are presented separately as assets when the fair value is positive and separate as liabilities when the fair value is negative. The method of recognition of profit or loss depends on whether a derivative has been identified as a hedged item and by the nature of the item which is hedged. Using cash flows hedging, the Group intends to cover the risks that cause a change in cash flows, which will affect the income statement, and arise from an asset or a liability or a future transaction. Examples of the Group's cash flow hedging include future transactions in the shipping fuel market, subject to changes in market prices. The Group uses hedge accounting when at the commencement of the hedging transaction and the subsequent use of the financial derivatives, it may also document the relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument regarding the risk management and strategy of the hedging decision. Moreover, hedge accounting is applied only when it is expected to be effective and can be reliably measured on an ongoing basis for every reporting period. The Group has defined as a hedging ratio equal to 1: 1 for the relationship between hedging instrument (contracts) and hedged item (fuel oil). Hedging inefficiency may arise from a) differences related to time difference between the cash flows of the hedging instruments and the hedged item, b) contingent change in the hedging ratio of the relation arising from the quantity of the hedged item and the quantity of the hedging instrument that the Group actually uses and c) contingent decrease in consumption arising from the decrease in sailings. Changes in the fair value of the effective component of the hedging instrument are recognized in equity (Fair value reserves) through other comprehensive income, while the inefficient component is recognized in the Income Statement. The amounts accumulated in equity are transferred to the Income Statement in the periods when the hedged items are recognized in the Income Statement. The Group measures the fair value reserves at the lowest of the following amounts (in absolute values): i) the cumulative gain or loss of the hedging instrument from the commencement of the hedging and ii) the cumulative change in fair value (in present value) of the hedged item (i.e. the present value of the cumulative change in the hedged expected future cash flows) from the commencement of the hedging.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 When a cash flow hedging item expires, is disposed or exercised without being replaced, or when a hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative profit or loss in the Equity at that time is recognised to the Income Statement. Finally, it is to be noted that as far as hedge accounting is concerned, the Group continues to apply the requirements arising from IAS 39. 3.1.14. Financial assets Initial recognition A financial asset or financial liability is recognized in the statement of financial position of the Group when it arises or when the Group becomes part of the contractual terms of the financial instrument. Financial assets are classified at initial recognition and are subsequently measured at amortized cost, at fair value through other comprehensive income and fair value through profit or loss. If a financial asset is to be classified and measured at amortized cost or at fair value through comprehensive income, it shall generate cash exclusively pertaining to capital and interest repayments of the initial capital. The business model applied by the Group for the purposes of managing financial assets refers to the way in which it manages its financial capabilities in order to generate cash flows. Classification of Financial Instruments The accounting policies, applied by the Group, require that as at their acquisition, financial assets and liabilities should be classified in different categories as follows: a) Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets designated at initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss, or financial assets that are required to be measured at fair value. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for sale or repurchase in the near future. Financial assets with cash flows referring not only to capital and interest payments are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model. b) Financial assets at fair value through total comprehensive income Upon initial recognition, the Group may decide to classify its investment participations as equity instruments designated at fair value through total comprehensive income when they meet the definition of equity and are not held for trading. Classification is determined per financial instrument. Profits and losses from these financial assets are never recycled to profits or losses. Equity instruments designated at fair value through total comprehensive income are not subject to impairment test. The Group holds no such assets.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 Derecognition A financial asset is derecognized when: The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has undertaken the commitment to fully pay the cash flows received without significant delay to a third party under an arrangement. 3.1.15. Earnings per share Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the profit or loss for the period, attributable to ordinary equity shareholders, adjusted for the payment of dividends to preferred shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. For the purpose of calculating basic earnings per share for the consolidated financial statements the numerator includes profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders of the parent company and the denominator includes the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share is taken into consideration the number of securities which potentially could be issued while the net profit / (loss) for the period is properly adjusted in order to include the effect of the issuance of those potential securities on the income statement. 3.1.16. Operating segments The Group applies IFRS 8 "Operating Segments”, which requires the definition of operating segments to be based on the "management approach". In addition, financial information is required to be reported on the same basis as is used internally. The Board of Directors is the main decision maker of the Group's business decisions. For the purposes of presentation of operating segments, it is to be noted that the Group operates in passenger shipping in different geographical areas. The Group has decided to provide information based on the geographical segmentation of its operations. The Group operates in: a) the Greek Domestic Routes, and b) the Internaitonal routes. The Group’s vessels provide transportation services to passengers, private vehicles and freight. The Group’s sales are highly seasonal. The highest traffic for passengers and vehicles is observed during the months July, August and September while the lowest traffic for passengers and vehicles is observed between November and February. In contrast, freight sales are equally divided within the year, presenting very lower seasonality. ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 215

Expenses 3.1.17.1. Recognition of expenses Expenses are recognized based on the accrual principle. 3.1.17.2. Financial expenses Financial Expenses are recognized based on the accrual principle. 3.1.17.3. Borrowing costs Borrowing costs are interest and other costs incurred by an entity in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs include: a) Interest on short-term and long-term borrowings, interest on bank overdrafts and the costs that may arise from the present value of these obligations. b) Amortization of ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings. c) Exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they are regarded as an additional cost to interest costs. 3.1.18. Employee benefits 3.1.18.1. Short-term benefits Short-term employee benefits (except post-employment benefits) in cash and in kind are recognized as an expense when they accrue. Any unpaid amount is booked as a liability, while in the case where the amount paid exceeds the amount of services rendered, the company recognizes the excess amount as an asset (prepaid expense) only to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction of future payments or to reimbursement. 3.1.18.2. Post-employment benefits Post-employment benefits include lump sum pension compensation, pensions or other benefits, offered after the termination of employment to the employees as acknowledgement of their services. The Group’s obligations regarding pension benefits include both - defined contribution plan and defined benefits plans. The accrued cost of the defined contribution plan is recorded as an expense in the relative period. Post-employment benefits are partly funded through payments to insurance companies or state social insurance institutions.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 217 Defined contribution plan Defined contribution plans are relating to contributions to Insurance Funds (e.g. Social Security), so the Group doesn’t have any legal obligation in the event that the State Fund is unable to pay a pension to the insured. The employer's obligation is limited to the payment of employer contributions to the insurance funds. The contribution, payable by the Group, under a defined contribution plan, is recognized as liability, after deduction of the paid contribution, while accrued contributions are recognized as an expense in the income statement. Defined benefit plan According to Laws 2112/20 and 4093/2012 the Company is obliged to compensate its employees in case of retirement or dismissal. The amount of compensation paid depends on the years of service, the amount of remuneration and the way the service was terminated (dismissal or retirement). The person is entitled to participate in these plans through distribution of benefits in the last 16 years until his/her retirement date following the provisions of Law 4093/2012. The amount of the compensation paid depends on the years of service, the level of wages and the removal from service (dismissal or retirement). The entitlement to participate in these plans is usually based on years of service of the employee until retirement. The liability recognized in the Statement of Financial Position with respect to defined benefit plans is the present value of the liability for the defined benefit less the fair value the fair value of the plan’s assets (reserve from payments to the insurance company) and changes resulting from any actuarial gain or loss and the cost of prior service. The commitment of the defined benefit is calculated annually by an independent actuary, applying the projected unit credit method. The obligations for benefits payable are based on various parameters, such as age, years of service, salary. Specific obligations for payable benefits. The provisions for the period are included in the relative personnel cost in the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements and consist of current and past service cost, the relative financial cost, actuarial gains or losses and any possible additional charges. Regarding unrecognized actuarial gains or losses, the revised IAS 19 is applied, which includes a number of changes in accounting treatment of defined benefit plans, including: - Non-recognition of expected returns of the plan investments in the income statements but recognition of the relevant interest on the net liability/(receivable) of the benefit calculated based on the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation, - Recognition of previous service costs in the income statement for the year earlier than the dates of modifications to the plan or when the relevant restructuring or terminal benefit is recognized, - Other changes include new disclosures as quantitative sensitivity analysis.

Share-based Payment (IFRS 2) The Group has implemented share-based payment arrangements for executive members of the Board of Directors and its executives. In particular, under the existing agreements, the beneficiaries are granted the right to receive equity securities (shares) of the parent company, provided that certain vesting conditions have been fulfilled. The existing equity-based payment agreement programme is not settled in cash. Services received in exchange for equity-based payment arrangements are measured at fair value. The fair value of the services of executives and employees at the date the share options are granted is recognised in accordance with IFRS 2 as an expense in the income statement, with a corresponding increase in equity in a share option reserve account, during the period in which the services are received in exchange for which the options are granted. The total option expense over the vesting period is calculated based on the fair value of the options granted at the grant date. The expense is recognized over the vesting period based on the best available estimate of the number of share options expected to vest. The fair value of options is measured by adopting an appropriate valuation model to reflect the number of options for which the performance conditions of each plan are expected to be met. Estimates of the number of options expected to be exercised are revised if there is any indication that the number of share options expected to vest differs from previous estimates. Any adjustment to the cumulative share-based payment resulting from a revision is recognised in the current period. The number of vested options ultimately exercised by employees and executives of the Company does not affect the expense recorded in the period. 3.1.19. Leases 3.1.19.1. Finance Leases The Group and the Company proceeded with the adoption of IFRS 16 "leases" from 1 January 2019. IFRS 16 introduces a single model for the recognition of leases in the financial statements. By adopting the standard, the Group as a lessee recognizes in the statement of financial position right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, the date when the leased fixed assets are made available for use. The accounting treatment of leases for the lessor remains the same as that under IAS 17. Α. As a Lessee The Group and the Company lease various assets such vessels, buildings and vehicles. As a lessee, under the previous accounting policy, the Group and the Company classified leases as operating or finance, based on the assessment of whether all risks and benefits related to ownership of a component of the assets were transferred, irrespective of the final transfer or non-transfer of ownership of the asset. According to IFRS 16, the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized for most of the leases to which it contracts as a lessee, except for low value leases, whose payments were recorded under a straight line method in the income statements throughout the term of the lease.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 Significant Accounting Policies: Leases are recognized in the statement of financial position as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the date on which the leased fixed asset becomes available for use. Every lease payment is divided between the lease liability and interest, which is charged to the income statement throughout the lease, in order to obtain a fixed interest rate for the remainder of the financial liability in every period. Rights-of-use assets are initially measured at their cost, and then reduced by the amount of accumulated depreciation and potential impairment. The right-of-use is depreciated in the shortest period between the useful life of the asset or duration of its lease, applying the straight line method. The initial measurement of the right-of-use assets consists of: • The amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, • Lease payments made on or before the commencement date, reduced by the amount of discounts or other incentives offered, • Initial costs, which are directly linked to the rent, • Recovery costs. Finally, they are adjusted to specific remeasurements of the corresponding lease liability. Lease liabilities are initially calculated at the present value of rentals, which were not paid at the inception of the lease. They are discounted at the imputed rate of the lease or, if this interest rate cannot be determined by the contract, with the differential lending rate (IBR). The differential borrowing rate is the cost that the lessee would have to pay to borrow the necessary capital in order to obtain an item of similar value as the leased asset, in a similar economic environment and under similar terms and assumptions. Lease liabilities include net present value of: • Fixed leases (including any in-substance fixed leases) • Variable leases, depending on the rate • Residual value expected to be paid • The price of an option to purchase the underlying asset, if the lessor i s almost certain to exercise it • Penalties for termination of a lease if the lessor chooses this option. After their initial measurement, the lease obligations are increased by their financial cost and are reduced by the payment of rents. Finally, they are reassessed when there is a change: a) to rents due to a change of index, b) to the estimation of the amount of residual value, which is expected to be paid, or c) to the assessment of a choice ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 219

B. As a Lessor When tangible assets are leased under finance lease, the present value of rentals is recorded as a receivable. The difference between the gross amount of the receivables and the present value of the receivable is recorded as deferred financial income. Income from lease is recognized in the income statement during the lease using the net investment method, which represents a constant periodic return. 3.1.20. Contingent liabilities and contingent assets Provisions are recognized when: a) The Group has a present obligation, legal or construed, as result of a past event. b) It is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle an obligation. c) A reliable estimation of the obligation can be made. Provisions are reviewed at every financial statements preparation date. Contingent liabilities or contingent assets are not recognised in the financial statements, but disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, when the possibility of an outflow or inflow of economic benefit is remote. 3.1.21. Allocation of revenue and expenses 3.1.22. Allocation of joint revenue and expenses The consolidated Joint Ventures and management companies of the Group, transfer all revenue and expenses related to specific companies to these ship-owning companies. When revenue or expenses are incurred which are not related to specific ship-owners companies, they are allocated to the ship-owners companies based on gross registered tonnage of every vessel. 3.1.23. Allocation of expenses The Group recognizes insurance expenses and other vessels expenses in the income statement allocating them over a twelve-month period, in order to facilitate annual allocation of such expenses. 3.1.24. Current and deferred income taxes For a better understanding of the way in which the Group’s income is taxed, the profits are classified based on their origin.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 221 3.1.25. Profit from shipping activities According to Law 27/1975, article 6, ship-owner companies whose vessels are flying either the Greek flag or a foreign flag but have established their offices in Greece under Law 89/67 are subject to taxes based on the gross tonnage of the vessels, irrespective of profits or losses. This tax is in effect an income tax which is readjusted according to the above law. The payment of the aforementioned tax fulfils all obligations related to income tax with regard to shipping activities. In this case, a permanent difference exists between taxable and accounting results, which will not be taken into consideration for the calculation of deferred taxation. 3.1.26. Profit from non-shipping activities In this particular case, the total revenue from non-shipping activities is calculated, as well as the expenses related to the above revenues. If it is not feasible to determine profits from non-shipping activities, then the total revenue is calculated, combining revenue from shipping and non-shipping activities. Based on this total, the percentage of the two above categories is recorded in the total revenue. These percentages are divided by the total profit / loss. The profit arising from the above calculation, referring to non-shipping activities, is taxable under the general provisions. 3.2. Other Accounting Policies 3.2.1. Effect of changes in foreign exchange rates The functional currency of the Group is Euro. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into Euro using the exchange rate effective at the date of the transaction. At each Statement of Financial Position date: a) Monetary assets are translated using the closing rate effective on that date. b) Non-monetary assets in foreign currency, measured using historical cost, are translated applying the exchange rate at the transaction date. At the end of each period, such assets are translated into home currency by using the closing rate of that date. Exchange differences arising from the above cases are recognized in revenue or expenses in the period in which they arise. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of non-monetary assets of foreign companies, whose currency is not Euro, are directly recognized in equity.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 222 3.2.2. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, sight deposits and term bank deposits of high liquidity maturing within three months. 3.2.3. Share Capital Share capital consists of common bearer or nominal shares and is included in equity. Costs directly attributable to the issuance of shares are recorded net of the related income tax, as a deduction from the proceeds of issuance, in the share premium account. Costs directly attributable to the issuance of shares for the equities acquisition are included in the acquisition cost of the acquired entity.3.2.4. Distribution of dividends / optional reserves Payable Dividends are recognized as a liability in the financial statements of the parent company and the Group when approved by the General Meeting of shareholders. 3.2.5. Government Grants Government Assistance 3.2.6. Assets related grants Government grants that relate to assets are those that are provided to entities subject to the condition that the entity will purchase or construct long-term assets. Government grants are recognized when it is certain that: a) The entity will comply with the conditions attached to these grants. b) The grants will be received. Government grants related to assets are recognized as deferred income and are recorded on a systematic basis in revenue over the useful life of the asset. 3.2.6.1. Income related grants Government grants related to income are recognized in a systematic and rational manner in the revenues of the periods in which the grants should be matched with the corresponding costs.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 4. Financial risk management The main financial risks for the Group and the Company follow below. 4.1. Financial risk factors The Group is exposed to a series of financial risks, including market risk (unexpected volatility of exchange rates and interest rates) and credit risk. Consequently, the Group uses a risk management program, which seeks to minimize potential adverse effects. Risk management relates to identifying, evaluating and hedging financial risks. The Group’s policy is not to undertake any transactions of a speculative nature. The Group’s financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, receivables and payables, loans, repos, finance leases and derivatives. 4.1.1. Foreign currency risk The Group’s functional currency is Euro. The majority of the Group's assets and liabilities are denominated in Euro and therefore the Group is not exposed to significant foreign currency risk. The Group is affected by the exchange rates to the extent that the fuel, purchased for the operation of the vessels, is traded internationally in U.S. Dollars. 4.1.2. Credit risk The Group has established credit control procedures to mitigate the risk of bad receivables. Concerning the credit risk arising from other financial assets, the Group’s exposure to credit risk, arises from potential default of the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of the financial assets. The Group has defined credit limits and specific credit policies for all its customers. Furthermore, the Group has obtained bank guarantees from major customers, in order to secure its trade receivables. At the Balance Sheet date, the Group’s exposure to credit risk is limited to the financial assets analysed as follows:

The Group is managing its liquidity needs on a daily basis, systematically monitoring its short term and long term financial liabilities and the payments made. Furthermore, the Group continuously monitors the maturity of both its receivables and payables, with the objective of maintaining a balance between capital continuity and flexibility through the leverage of its banking creditworthiness.

Interest rate risk The Group is exposed to variations of interest rates market as regards bank loans, which are subject to variable interest rate (see note 8.30). The table below presents the sensitivity of the income statement and equity to a reasonable change in the interest rate equal to +1% or -1%.

Equity -5,537 5,537 -3,618 3,618
4.1.5. Capital Risk Management The Group’s objective in capital management is to facilitate its ability to continue as a going concern in order to ensure returns for shareholders and benefits of other stakeholders related to the Group and to maintain an optimal capital structure in order to decrease the capital costs. To ensure or adjust proper capital management, following the decisions made by the authorized bodies, the Group may modify its dividend policy, issue new shares or sell assets. No changes were made to the objectives, policies or procedures during the years ending 31.12.2024 and 31.12.2023. The Group monitors its capital based on the gearing ratio. The ratio is calculated by dividing net debt by total capital employed. Net debt is calculated as “Total borrowings” (including “current and non-current borrowings” as recorded in the Statement of Financial Position) less “Cash and cash equivalents” less “Financial assets available for sale”. Total capital employed is calculated as “Equity” as recorded in the Statement of financial Position plus net debt. The Group’s objective is to enhance its capital structure through prudent resource management. The gearing ratios as of 31 December 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

Gearing ratio 52% 49%
4.1.6. Fuel prices fluctuation risk The Group, like all shipping companies, is significantly affected by the volatility of fuel prices. It is noted that the cost of fuel and lubricants is the most significant operating cost and represents approximately 42% of Group’s costs of sales in 2024. The table below presents the sensitivity of the income statement and equity to a change in fuel prices equal to 10% on an annual basis.
Increase/ (Decrease) in fuel oil prices Effect on profit before taxes Effect on equity
+/- 10% -/+ 25,571 -/+ 25,571
The Group has hedged a part of the fuel prices fluctuation risk. Management actively monitors the situation and takes a series of actions to reduce the operating costs of the Group, including conducting fuel price hedging transactions for part of the estimated fuel consumption quantity by the Group's vessels. 4.1.7. Competition The routes with intense competition, along which the Group operated in 2024, as well as its most significant competitors are the following:
ROUTE COMPETITORS
Adriatic Sea Grimaldi Lines
Piraeus - Cyclades Sea Jets / Golden Star Ferries / Fast Ferries
Rafina - Cyclades Golden Star Ferries / Fast Ferries
Piraeus - Crete Minoan Lines / Sea Jets
Sporades ΑΝΕΣ FERRIES / Sea Jets
Saronic JV Saronic Ferries / Aegean Flying Dolphins / ANES Ferries / Alpha Lines / Magic Ses Ferries
4.1.8. Risks from climate change The risks caused by climate change that may affect the Group's operations are analytically presented in the "Sustainability Statement" in the Climate Change chapter E1.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 228 4.1.9. Risks of accident The Group ensures the safety of passengers and crew. This is achieved by following procedures and taking the necessary measures. These measures include implementation of safety regulations, posting signs at dangerous points, provision of the required equipment for the crew, as well as continuous safety training and familiarization in accordance with the relevant international regulations. It is understood that failure to comply with the above entails a financial risk to the Group, with the potential consequence of regulatory sanctions, legal costs and damage to its reputation. Failure to mitigate these risks could result in increased premiums and loss of business opportunities. 5. Fair value of financial instruments The Group uses the following hierarchy in order to define and disclose the fair value of financial instruments per valuation technique: Level 1: Assets/liabilities are measured at fair value according to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Assets/liabilities, measured at fair value according to evaluation models in which elements affecting significantly the evaluation are based (directly or indirectly) on observable market values. Level 3: Assets/liabilities, measured at fair value according to evaluation models in which elements affecting significantly the evaluation are not based on observable market values. 5.1. Financial derivatives Derivative financial instruments are valued using valuation models based on observable market data. 5.2. Investments measured at fair value Under IAS 27 «Separate Financial Statements» the Company measures its investments in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" at fair value through other comprehensive income. At the end of each reporting period of the financial statements, the Company carries out the calculations required in relation to the determination of the fair value of its investments. The investments in respect of its holdings (non-listed shares) are valued based on generally accepted valuation models, which include data based on both - unobservable factors, and market observable inputs. The assessment conducted to determine the fair value of financial instruments not traded in active markets, focuses both on external and internal factors. Consequently, at the end of every reporting period, the Company: a) Identifies and assesses the prevailing conditions of the Greek economy. b) Collects, analyses and monitors the accounting information on the performance, using as benchmarks the development of the Company’s financial performance at the end of every reporting period.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 229 The analysis of these data provides information regarding the level of meeting or not meeting the business objectives and indicates the tendencies regarding the results and the financial performance of the companies at the end of the annual reporting period. c) Reviews the business conditions and available information and estimates regarding the future development of financial performance and tendencies. According to standard practices, at each annual reporting date of the financial statements, the Company re- examines the business plans assumptions of its subsidiaries, based on the business plan prepared at the end of the previous annual reporting period, in relation to subsequent financial periods. In case the financial performance of every company during the annual period under examination does not present substantial deviations from the budget of the respective period and given with the Management's estimates regarding the future development of these financials, redefinition of the original business plan is not considered necessary and the relative calculations for determining fair value are limited to sensitivity analysis on the changes in the weighted average cost of capital. If it is not the case, the Company analytically reassesses its business plan according to the current economic and business conditions. Main assumptions for the determination of investments at fair value are the assessment of expected cash flows as described above and the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) which is calculated by weighting cost of capital, cost of long-term debt and any grants. The basic parameters determining the weighted cost of capital (WACC) are: • Risk-free return, • Country risk premium, • Equity risk premium. According to the above, the WACC was determined at 8.5% to 11.5%. The value calculated as above, is weighted with the value arising based on the adjusted (taking into account the vessels’ fair value) net assets value of every subsidiary. 5.3. Other financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value The following table presents financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value as at 31.12.2024.

8. Notes to the Financial Statements for the period 1.1.2024- 31.12.2024 8.1. Operating Segments Geographical Segment Report The Group applies IFRS 8 "Operating Segments", which requires the definition of operating segments to be based on the "management approach". In addition, financial information is required to be reported on the same basis as it is used internally. The Board of Directors is the main decision maker regarding the Group's business decisions. Taking into consideration the aforementioned, for the purposes of segment reporting, it should be noted that the Group operates in passenger shipping in different geographical areas. The geographical allocation of the Group's operations is as follows: a) Domestic Routes b) International Routes The Group’s vessels provide transportation services to passengers and private vehicles, which constitute mainly the touristic sales, and to freight. The touristic volumes are highly seasonal. The highest traffic for passengers and vehicles is observed during the months of July to September, while the lowest traffic for passengers and vehicles is observed from November to February. In contrast, freight sales are equally allocated during the entire year and have much lower seasonality. The results and other information per segment for the period 1.1.2024 31.12.2024 are as follows: ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 238

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 246 Tax Compliance Report From 2011 onwards the group companies domiciled in Greece, or those that established a branch in Greece under the Law on Public Limited Companies, have been audited by a Certified Public Accountant and have received unqualified tax compliance reports until the FY 2023. Tax compliance report for the year 2024 will be finalized within October 2025. For the fiscal years 2011 until 2023, all the group companies, that were subject to a special tax audit conducted by Certified Public Accountants in addition to the statutory audit, in order to assure the company’s compliance in all material respects, according to Article 82 of Law 2238/1994 and Article 65A of Law 4174/2013, received an unqualified Tax Compliance Report. It is to be noted that according to the Circular 1006/2016 the companies that have been subject to the aforementioned special tax audit are not exempted from the conduct of the statutory tax audit by the competent tax authorities and for this reason the FYs have not been finalized. The Company’s Management estimates that, in potential future audits by the tax authorities, provided that they will be conducted, no additional tax differences will arise with significant effect on the financial statements. For the fiscal year 2024, the special audit for receiving the Tax Compliance Report is in progress and it is not expected that upon its completion, differences will arise that will substantially differentiate the tax obligations presented in the financial statements. In respect of Attica Group companies, domiciled outside the European Union, that have no branches in Greece, there is no obligation for tax audit. Shipping Companies, are not subject to the aforementioned tax audit and their tax audit wil be conducted by the tax authorities as provided. 8.11.

Finance lease liabilities are presented in paragraph 8.30 "Long-Term and Short-Term Loan Liabilities".
8.14. Goodwill As of December 31, 2024, goodwill amounts to €15,856k. The balance includes an amount of €10,778k, arising from Hellenic Seaways Single Member Maritime S.A. acquisition during the fiscal year 2018. Also in the current financial year, goodwill of Euro 5,077k was recognized from the acquisition of the control of the company E. Chamilothori - K. Kapiri S.A., owner of the GALAXY HOTEL Hotel in Naxos (see note 7.5). Goodwill impairment test On 31.12.2024, an impairment test was performed in respect of the recognized goodwill. The goodwill impairment test was conducted following the allocation of these items to separate CGUs (Domestic routes) for the goodwill of the amount of Euro 10,778 k from the acquisition of Hellenic Seaways Single Member Maritime S.A. and for the goodwill of the amount of Euro 5,077 k from the acquisition of E. Chamilothori - K. Kapiri S.A. The recoverable amount of goodwill has been determined based on value in use, calculated using the discounted cash flows method. To facilitate determining value in use, the Management uses assumptions which are considered reasonable, based on the best possible information disclosed and effective as at Financial Statements reporting date. No need to derecognize goodwill has arisen from the impairment test.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 252 Assumptions used for determining value in use In order to determine every CGU recoverable amount, the Group calculates value in use by applying the method of the present value of estimated future cash flows. The key assumptions applied by the Group in order to determine estimated future cash flows are as follows: • Market price assumptions - Operating assumptions: The key operating assumptions mainly pertain to fuel prices, cost and time of the Group’s vessels major maintenance and estimates of number of routes, number of passengers and freight. • Preparation of business plans per operating segment: - Business plans are prepared based on a maximum 5-year period. The cash flows beyond the 5-year period are derived based on estimates of growth rates (1% - 2%). - Business plans are based on recently prepared budgets and estimates. - Business plans use budgetary operating profit margins and EBITDA, as well as future estimates by applying reasonable assumptions. Calculations applied in order to determine the recoverable amounts of operating segments were based on the business plans approved by the Management, which included the necessary revisions, performed for the purposes of recording the current economic conditions, reflecting past experience, segment studies projections and other information available from external sources. Weighted average cost of capital (WACC): WACC method reflects the discount rate of future cash flows of every operating segment, according to which the cost of equity and the cost of long-term borrowing is weighted to calculate the cost of total capital. Since all cash flows of business plans are determined in euro, risk-free return was identified as the return on 10- year German bond. Risk premium was calculated based on the estimates arising from independent sources. Beta sensitivity indicators are annually evaluated on the basis of published market data. Accordingly, the WACC was calculated from 8.5% to 11.5%. Apart from the aforementioned estimates regarding determination of CGUs value in use, the Management is not aware of changes in circumstances that may have affected its remaining assumptions. The Group has analysed the sensitivity of the recoverable amounts per operating segment in relation to a change of 0.5% to the basic assumption of the discount rate. The analysis has not indicated that an impairment loss can arise.

Stock Option Plan On 12.07.2024, the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders approved the Stock Option Plan. On 1.8.2024 the Company’s Board of Directors elaborated on the specification of the terms of the Stock Option Plan for the acquisition of Company shares and the allocation of the Options to beneficiaries. The key terms of the Plan are outlined as follows: The beneficiaries of the Plan are executive members of the Board of Directors (the ‘BoD’) and executives of the Company and its affiliated entities, as defined in Article 32 of L. 4308/2014, including individuals who provide services to the Company and its affiliated entities on an ongoing basis as defined in Article 113 of Law 4548/2018 (the ‘Beneficiaries’). The maximum number of new shares to be issued amounts to 5,500,000 voting ordinary registered shares of a nominal value of thirty cents (€ 0.30) each, representing 2.26% of current share capital, and will stem from an increase in the Company’s share capital. During the aforementioned meeting, the BoD granted to Beneficiaries 4,912,500 Options for the acquisition, upon their exercise, of an equivalent number of new Company shares. In the event of any corporate events which, in the discretion of the BoD, modify the features of the existing shares of the Company (such as stock splits or reverse stock splits without modifying the share capital through either a reduction or an increase in the nominal value of each share, conversions, mergers, etc.), the BoD will make corresponding adjustments to the number of shares to be acquired by the Beneficiaries of the Options exercised.
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A., 1- 7 LYSIKRATOUS & EVRIPIDOU STR., 176 74, KALLITHEA, ATHENS Page 265 The exercise price of the new shares has been set at two euros and twenty-five cents (€ 2.25) per share. In the event of corporate events that necessitate adjustments to the number of shares to be acquired by the Beneficiaries upon exercise of their Options, or otherwise impact the exercise price at the discretion of the BoD, the exercise price may be accordingly adjusted by the BoD to reflect these changes. The Plan is designated for a period of up to five (5) years (with the vesting period beginning from the BoD decision date and extending in phases up to three years thereon, followed by an exercise period of up to two years from the conclusion of the final vesting phase for each Beneficiary's Options). Changes in the stock options per share in 2024 are as follows:

Accrued pension and retirement obligations Accrued pension and retirement obligations refer to personnel compensation due to retirement. The Group has the legal obligation to pay its employees a compensation at their date of departure due to retirement. The above-mentioned obligation is a defined benefit plan according to IAS 19. At 31.12.2024 " Accrued pension and retirement obligations" amounted to Euro 1.78mln compared to Euro 3.15mln at 31.12.2023. The change is mainly due to the implementation of a voluntary redundancy program by the Group. For the fiscal year 2024 the yield of iBoxx AA Corporate Overall 10 + EUR indices was used as a discount rate, which is considered consistent with the principles of IAS 19 since it is based on bonds corresponding to the currency and estimated term in relation to employee benefits and appropriate for long-term provisions. The assumptions used for the employee benefit provisions are the following:
2024 2023
Discount rate 2.93% 2.98%
Inflation 2.00% 2.10%
