MESSAGE FROM THE MANAGING DIRECTORS

Dear Shareholders,

The first six months of 2020 have proven to be quite out of the ordinary with the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic and related sanitary crisis. We have seen most countries in Europe (and the world) put into lockdown for several months. Governments and Central banks had to step in quickly and in dramatic manner to keep our social, economic and financial systems alive.

The outcome of this crisis remains uncertain and it is very difficult at this stage to fully assess the impact on business and our lives in general.

However, we believe that Luxempart has a solid foundation and is well prepared to weather the storm and preserve your investment. Our investment activity is based on a long-term horizon and on significant diversification of our assets, geographically as well as in terms of industry exposure. We do not have to react in the short term and are able to commit significant resources to the preservation and development of our assets. The solidity of our portfolio is shown in the relative resilience of our net asset value. Even though on a line by line basis, some assets suffer more than others from the Covid-19 crisis, all have performed reasonably well, none is in jeopardy, and the reduction in value is mainly related to the overall downturn in stock markets.

Our net asset value decreased by 8.3% (6.4% dividend paid to our shareholders reintegrated) due to the unrealised mark to market valuation of our portfolio on 30 June 2020, which is impacted by the negative market environment. Indeed, our reference index declined by more than 13% over the same period. Luxempart compares favorably mainly due to 3 reasons : (i) ca. 13% of our NAV is cash and remains stable (ii) our main portfolio companies, thanks to their robust operating performance, compare favourably to other companies in their sector in Europe and (iii) our portfolio is over-exposed (compared to the index) to non-discretionary consumer goods, whose performance remained very solid during the Covid-19 crisis.

Furthermore, we would like to underline that since Luxempart has no constraints to rotate its portfolio, this downturn during the first half of 2020 should not have a significant impact on our companies' future valuations. Thus under the assumption, which is valid as of today, that our assets, given their intrinsic qualities, should recover from the impact of the current crisis, the value of the portfolio remains solid and sustainably so.

A crisis is also a time of opportunity. Our company has taken a number of initiatives in 2020 in line with the strategy that was outlined in 2019 :

  • Luxempart has invested in total € 111 m: on the one hand, in partnership with Cobepa, in Enoflex, a very promising unlisted group that has achieved the status of world leader in its niche market, and on the other hand has reinforced its exposure to some of our listed portfolio lines, taking advantage of their lower stock market valuation.
  • At the same time, benefitting from the quality of several portfolio companies that were only marginally affected, we pursued divestments, generating capital gains in line with our long term objectives. During the first half of 2020 Luxempart has made divestments of € 100 m; further exits are expected to be realised in the next months.

Interim consolidated financial statements at 30 June 2020 Luxempart S.A. 5

Moreover, we have continued to reinforce our investment team with the arrival of 3 new investment professionals in 2020, at the executive committee as well as in the younger levels of our team. This trend is continuing as we were able in July to attract a very seasoned Investment Director who will cover the DACH region for Luxempart and we are in advanced talks with a candidate for the same position but geared towards French-speaking Europe. We believe that with these reinforcements, Luxempart will have all necessary human resources to seize interesting investment and divestment opportunities in the coming quarters, as well as to continue to preserve the value of our portfolio and to foster growth by committing additional capital.

2020 will be a transitional year for Luxempart, in an challenging environment, but we remain cautiously optimistic and strongly believe that the fundamental strengths of your company will allow us to continue to create shareholder value in the long term.

FINANCIAL INDICATORS

The interim consolidated accounts of Luxempart cover the first 6 months of 2020. They were subject to a limited review by the statutory auditor Deloitte, who issued a report, to a thorough analysis by the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee in its meeting held on 24 August and the approval of the Board of Directors on 26 August. The financial statements have been prepared in compliance with IAS 34 - Interim financial reporting. Since they are condensed financial statements, they do not include all the information required under IFRS and should be read in conjunction with the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

The consolidated result of the period ending 30 June 2020 of € -101 million is mainly composed of € -97 million from investments activities (dividends received and capital gains/losses - realised and unrealised) and € -4 million expenses on ordinary activities (operating expenses, staff cost…).

For its performance reporting, the Management of the Group does not exclusively refer to a reporting prepared under IFRS. In addition to the IFRS Financial Statements, and in order to increase transparency, the Group has decided to present Alternative Performance Indicators (API). The API reporting is a financial measure of historical and future financial performance, financial position, and cash flows other than a financial measure defined or specified in the applicable financial reporting framework (IFRS). For more information on the difference between the API reporting and the IFRS, please refer to the annual report 2019. A reconciliation between the API reporting and the IFRS financial statements is presented hereafter.

MAIN EVENTS OVER THE PERIOD AND RECENT EVENTS

General overview

The first half year was affected by the Covid-19 pandemic and the decline of financial markets in March 2020, partially absorbed during the last weeks of the first semester. Central banks reacted fast and governments took supporting measures such as credit guarantees, tax rescheduling and other financial supports.

Luxempart, being cash rich and with no limited leverage, has solid financial fundamentals and is well equipped to serenely pass through these uncertain times, support its portfolio companies and maintain a regular dividend payment.

Our investment team based in Luxembourg is mainly composed of nationals from Belgium, France, Germany and Switzerland who have permanent access to our portfolio companies based in these countries. Moreover, Luxempart is associated to teams in those countries and in Northern Italy.

The exceptional crisis impacting nearly all our portfolio lines intensified the links our investment managers have with the portfolio companies and directed the focus on short term support measures, business plan reviews and strategic reorientation. Our team, in close coordination and collaboration with the company management teams and co- stakeholders, reacted quickly, with prudence and determination.

During the first semester, only one portfolio line required a limited capital injection complementary to a loan guaranteed by its government and one portfolio line was declared insolvent (already fully impaired in the 2019 accounts). The capital increase of Atenor is not due to the pandemic but serves mainly growth financing. Most of our portfolio lines were of course impacted by the lockdown during several weeks, especially those exposed to retail and tourism, with reduced sales and profit margins. Some of our main portfolio lines lost in value mostly due to the lower valuation multiples of peer companies. The value decrease of SES is explained by a general re-rating of satellite companies and the impact on our net asset value is limited due to the low weight on our total portfolio.

Other listed companies, such as Zooplus and Süss Microtec, increased in value due to the positive evolution of e- commerce and microchips. Our investments in funds are rather stable in terms of valuation, except Ekkio that decreased in value due to its exposure to French tourism.

All in all, the net value decreased during the first half year, impacting negatively our result by € 105.9 million. This shows so far the resilience of our diversified portfolio through the balanced exposure to several sectors and geographies.

The Group Executive Committee manages the cash of the Group as being composed of the sum of the cash accounts and bank deposits of Luxempart and all its subsidiaries, whereas "Cash and cash equivalents" under IFRS are only composed of the current accounts of Luxempart and its subsidiaries that provide investment-related services (management companies).

The adjustment on the "Amounts owed to credit institutions" corresponds to the hedging loan held by Luxempart PIPE.

The investments under IFRS are less than the operational investments as Luxempart Capital Partners and some other subsidiaries invested about € 12 million without cash injection from Luxempart.

The divestments under IFRS are higher than the economic exits performed because the non-consolidated subsidiaries distributed more cash to Luxempart than the value of the exits performed.

The differences on "Other cash movements" are mainly composed of decrease of the bank deposits.

RISK MANAGEMENT

Luxempart faces specific risks due to the nature of its activities. Each of its investments is exposed to particular risks, mainly due to the business, location, regulation, customer's base and strategy decisions. Luxempart implements governance rules and closely liaises with the management of the major portfolio investments to mitigate the risk factors.

A major risk of Luxempart on all levels of the group is the market risk. All our assets are impacted by the evolution of financial markets and macroeconomic indicators (stock markets, comparable transactions of peer companies, valuation multiples, interest ratios…).

Especially investments listed on stock markets are under the influence of global market trends. Luxempart investments in such listed companies is about 21 % as of 30 June 2020.

Other risks are described in more detail in the 2019 annual financial statements.

Luxempart is not an investment fund submitted to exit constraints. Our Group is a patient investor who is not driven by the financial markets and its volatility cycles. Our investment teams and our Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee closely follow the evaluation of the portfolio investments. Investment and divestment decisions depend more on specific company analysis than financial market or fund investment cycles.

OUTLOOK

The uncertainty caused by the Covid-19 pandemic affecting the rhythm and intensity of the economic recovery makes it more difficult to give a reliable outlook. It is therefore hazardous to predict how the valuation of our portfolio - and therefore indirectly our net result - will evolve until the end of the year.

Over the long term, the following positive elements have to be kept in mind:

  • Strong financial fundamentals and no leverage of Luxempart and limited leverage of most of its major portfolio lines
  • Cash position (including deposits) and treasury portfolio in excess of € 200 million and wide access to credit lines
  • Stable, professional and international team in Luxembourg with team members partially based in our home markets Germany, France, Belgium and Northern Italy
  • Stable shareholder base with entrepreneurial background and a long term orientation

REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements of Luxempart S.A comprising the consolidated statement of financial position at June 30, 2020, related consolidated statement of profit or loss, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows, for the 6 months period from January 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020 ("interim consolidated financial information") and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes. The Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting "as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting " as adopted by the European Union.

Interim consolidated financial statements at 30 June 2020 Luxempart S.A. 23

Notes to the interim consolidated financial statements as at 30 June 2020

Note 1 - General information

Luxempart S.A. ("the Company" or "Luxempart") is an investment company whose registered office is located at 12, rue Léon Laval, L-3372 in Leudelange. The Company was founded on 25 April 1988, under the name BIL Participations. The General Meeting of the shareholders of 15 September 1992 decided to change the Company's name to Luxempart S.A. The interim consolidated financial statements for the first 6 months ending on 30 June 2020 incorporate the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries ("the Group"). The Company is listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and registered on the trade register under no. B27846.

Luxempart is primarily active in Luxembourg, Belgium, France, Italy and Germany. It actively manages a portfolio of listed and non-listed companies.

The publication of Luxempart's interim consolidated financial statements as at 30 June 2020 was authorised by the Company's Board of Directors on 26 August 2020.

The first six months of 2020 have proven to be quite out of the ordinary with the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic and related sanitary crisis. The outcome of this crisis remains uncertain and it is very difficult at this stage to fully assess the impact on business and our lives in general.

However, the Board of Directors believes that Luxempart has a solid foundation and is well prepared to weather the storm. Its investment activity is based on a long-term horizon and on significant diversification of its assets, geographically as well as in terms of industry exposure. Luxempart does not have to react in the short term and is able to commit significant resources to the preservation and development of its assets. The solidity of its portfolio is shown in the relative resilience of its net asset value. Even though on a line by line basis, some assets suffer more than others from the Covid-19 crisis, all have performed reasonably well, none is in jeopardy, and the reduction in value is mainly related to the overall downturn in stock markets.

Note 2 - Consolidation principles, valuation rules and accounting standards

Declaration of conformity

The interim consolidated financial statements of Luxempart and its subsidiaries as at 30 June 2020 have been prepared in compliance with IAS 34 Interim financial reporting. Since they are condensed financial statements, they do not include all the information required under IFRS and should be read in conjunction with the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

The majority of dividends from investments were received during the first half of 2020. The Group's other activities and results are not significantly seasonal or cyclical in nature.

Framework for preparation and presentation of financial statements

The interim consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of euros (€). The functional and presentational currency is the euro (€).

The principles, methods and assessment and consolidation techniques used in preparing these interim consolidated financial statements are not identical to those used by the Group in preparing its consolidated financial statements to 31 December 2019.

Accounting principles and policies are applied consistently and continuously within the Group.

Interim consolidated financial statements at 30 June 2020 Luxempart S.A. 24
