DATA MODUL Produktion und Vertrieb von elektronischen Systemen : Quarterly Report as of September 30, 2023

QUARTERLY REPORT	2

Dear Shareholders,

DATA MODUL was unable to sustain the high level of revenue and earnings in the third quarter that the company recorded one year ago, due to deteriorating economic circumstances, particularly in Germany.

Orders received in the third quarter of 2023 totaled 61.3 million euros in value, representing a 28.6% decline year-over-year (previous year: 85.8 million euros). Orders received in the first nine months of the year were 11.5% lower versus the same period in 2022 at a value of 209.5 million euros (previous year: 236.7 million euros). Revenue declined by a slight 4.4% versus the third quarter of 2022 to 72.7 million euros (previous year: 76.0 million euros). Revenue of 211.8 million euros recorded for the first nine months of 2023 is 3.6% higher year-over-year (previous year: 204.5 million euros).

The general increase in cost levels, due particularly to adverse exchange rate movements and increased personnel expenses, caused EBIT to fall 30.7% in the third quarter of 2023 to 6.8 million euros (previous year: 9.8 million euros), for EBIT margin of 9.3% (previous year: 12.9%). As of the reporting date, EBIT had declined 13.0% to 17.3 million euros (previous year: 19.9 million euros), for EBIT margin of 8.2% (previous year: 9.7%). Net income for the third quarter of 2023 was down slightly year-over-year to 4,9 million euros (previous year 6.9 million euros), supported by income from foreign currency derivatives reflecting a backlog of orders in foreign currencies. Net income for the period ending September 30, 2023 was 12.8% lower year-over-year at 12,0 million euros (previous year: 13.8 million euros).

Troubled general economic conditions negatively impacted DATA MODUL's business in 2023. Continuing to systematically execute on the long-term DATA MODUL strategy program will ensure the Company's ability to operate profitably despite a clouded economic outlook or even crisis conditions.

QUARTERLY REPORT	3

INTERIM GROUP MANAGEMENT REPORT

1. General economic conditions

Economic data from the summer confirmed a weakening trend, particularly in the manufacturing sector, which is now negatively affecting employment. In the United States, service providers continue to perform well, but in the euro area the mood in the service sector is deteriorating now that the vibrant summer tourism season is over. This points to declining economic output over the next few quarters. In the US, the mood currently remains surprisingly robust, while China is only slowly progressing with its recovery. This situation is likely to reverse however in the months ahead as China picks up momentum and the US slows. The trend of decreasing inflation pressure remains intact, despite a reversal caused by rising crude oil prices. The slowing effects of interest rate hikes on the economy are becoming increasingly apparent, in the euro area in particular, which indicates that the Fed and ECB may not raise interest rates further. Germany's persistently sluggish economy in the wake of the pandemic, exacerbated by the energy crisis unleashed by the Russian attack on Ukraine, largely reflects structural problems. Accordingly, the German government should resort to major reforms in order to position the country strongly with regard to the "four Ds"-demographic change, digitalization, decarbonization, deglobalization. The mood remains poor concerning the German economy, as indicated by the ifo business climate index falling to 85.7 in September from 85.8 (seasonally adjusted) for August. German enterprises thus again reported less satisfaction with the current business situation, although pessimism regarding the next few months declined slightly. The German economy remains in a valley, of which however it appears to have reached the bottom.

DATA MODUL is nonetheless confident regarding its full-year results for 2023 and is prepared to stand firm in the face of a troubled global economic environment fraught with major challenges.

3. Business results

DATA MODUL recorded revenue of 72,676 thousand euros for the third quarter of 2023 (previous year: 76,046 thousand euros), down 4.4% year-over-year. In the nine-months view, revenue rose 3.6% year-over-year from 204,527 thousand euros to 211,794 thousand euros in 2023. The Displays business segment recorded revenue of 45,839 thousand euros in the third quarter of 2023 (previous year: 47,291 thousand euros), while the Systems business segment recorded revenue of 26,837 thousand euros (previous year: 28,755 thousand euros). Orders received fell 28.6% for the Group versus the third quarter of last year to 61,312 thousand euros (previous year: 85,835 thousand euros). International revenue remained at a high level thanks to the Company's persistent strategic internationalization efforts, although the export rate declined slightly to 51.9% (previous year: 54.8%).

4. Earnings

DATA MODUL recorded slightly lower revenue in the third quarter of 2023 than for the same quarter last year. Yet DATA MODUL again demonstrated the robust reliability of its earnings, even in an adverse economic climate in which global uncertainty is running persistently high. EBIT of 6,775 thousand euros was recorded for the third quarter of 2023, reflecting the general rise in cost levels (previous year: 9,778 thousand euros). This resulted in EBIT margin narrowing to 9.3% (previous year: 12.9%). For the period January 1 to September 30,2023, EBIT declined 13.0% to 17,342 thousand euros (previous year: 19,940 thousand euros) for an EBIT margin of 8.2% (previous year 9.7%). The Displays business segment recorded EBIT of 8,737 thousand euros for the period (previous year: 8,396 thousand euros), while the Systems business segment recorded EBIT of 8,605 thousand euros (previous year: 11,544 thousand euros). Net income of 4,901 thousand euros was recorded for the third quarter of 2023 (previous year: 6,895 thousand euros). The year-to-date income recorded as of September 30, 2023 of 12,008 thousand euros represents a 12.8% decrease year-over-year (previous year: 13,771 thousand euros), yielding earnings per share of 3.41 euros (previous year: 3.91 euros). The financial result includes financial income and -expensefrom derivative financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss stemming from embedded foreign currency derivatives. A net gain of 982 thousand euros was recorded from these embedded derivatives (previous year: net gain of 739 thousand euros).

5. Balance sheet

The balance sheet total has decreased by 899 thousand euros since year-end to 221,135 thousand euros (December 31, 2022: 222,033 thousand euros). On the assets side of the balance sheet, this decline is due principally to decreased foreign currency derivatives for customer orders in foreign currencies and lower cash holdings, offset in part by increased trade receivables. On the liabilities side of the balance the decrease in total assets resulted primarily from decreased foreign currency derivatives for supplier orders in foreign currencies and lower tax liabilities, partially offset by the net income recorded for the year.

Cash flows from operating activities came to 3,008 thousand euros as of September 30, 2023 (previous year: -16,956 thousand euros). This resulted mainly from the net income recorded for the year, from the non- cash tax expense item and from depreciation, offset in part by increased trade receivables and income tax payments made. Investments in intangible assets and in property, plant and equipment in the first nine months of the year resulted in cash flows from investing activities of -3,553 thousand euros (previous year: -2,401 thousand euros). The redemption of liabilities due to financial institutions, cash outflows for leases and interest expenses and the dividend distribution for fiscal year 2022 resulted in cash flows from financing activities of -4,333 thousand euros (previous year: 13,722 thousand euros). At the reporting date the Group held 10,736 thousand euros in cash and cash equivalents (December 31, 2022: 15,669 thousand euros).

At the end of Q3 2023 DATA MODUL recorded an increased equity ratio of 64.9% (December 31, 2022: 59.4%). The Group thus remains solid financially, having sufficient liquidity.

QUARTERLY REPORT	5

6. Capital expenditure

Capital expenditure in the first nine months of 2023 totaled 3,553 thousand euros (previous year: 2,401 thousand euros). A major part of this investment went to expanding production and logistics capacity at the sites in Weikersheim (Germany) and Lublin (Poland). Over the remainder of the current fiscal year we are planning capital expenditures for our Munich location and our production and logistics sites in Weikersheim (Germany) and Lublin (Poland), and will continue investing in research and development to ensure that we remain competitive as an enterprise.

7. Number of employees

The Group had 547 employees as of September 30, 2023 (previous year: 486).

8. Opportunities and risks

In fiscal 2023 DATA MODUL will remain focused on growth in its core business segments Displays and Systems. Global economic trends, exchange rate movements, rising commodity and energy prices and uncertainties regarding customer ordering behavior constitute risks which may have a lasting impact on our business. We are aware of these risks and carefully monitor their impact on our business operations. At this time no risks have been identified which could pose a going-concern threat for the DATA MODUL Group. No significant changes have occurred affecting statements made in the Opportunities and Risks section of the annual report for fiscal year 2022.

9. Events after the reporting period

We are unaware of any significant events that have occurred after the reporting date September 30, 2023 which would have had a major influence or impact on the Group's earnings or balance sheet.

10. Forecast

The statements made in the following regarding future business results of DATA MODUL Group and assumptions regarding market and industry trends deemed material in relation thereto are based on opinions which we believe are realistic at this time given the information available. However, these assumptions and assessments are subject to uncertainty and involve an inevitable risk that projected developments may not actually occur, with respect to either their direction or extent.

With the pandemic, Russia's war of aggression in Ukraine and now war in Israel and Gaza, the world has been kept in constant crisis mode. And yet the global economy continues making moderate progress this year-just not the German economy. Leading economic research institutes had forecast that Europe's largest economy would be heading into recession. The US on the other hand, as the world's largest economy, has shown surprisingly robust consumer spending and capital investment. The Chinese economy is weakening, due particularly to the country's real estate crisis, which poses a threat to the global economy. The economic slowing effect of interest rate hikes is becoming increasingly evident, while the trend of decreasing inflationary pressure remains intact, despite higher oil prices. This indicates that the Fed and ECB may have already reached the turning point in their interest rate policies. Geopolitical uncertainty is still running high; an expected recovery following the pandemic, the phase of rampant inflation and the Russian war of aggression in Ukraine, still ongoing, has not been able to manifest. Economic experts have slightly revised their original growth forecast for the global economy from a consensus figure of 2.3% to 2.2% for 2024.

The US economy gained further momentum over the summer, despite the interest rate hikes. Falling prices, rising real wages and a historically low household savings rate are spurring domestic consumption. Significant growth is forecast for the US economy in the third quarter, thus 2023 the growth forecast has been raised from 1.4% to 2.1%. Eroded savings, expensive financing and muted consumer spending in Europe and China however are expected to lead to a phase of stagnation in the months ahead, thus economists are projecting the US economy to grow by 0.9% in 2024.

QUARTERLY REPORT	6

In the euro area, the trend of decreasing underlying price pressure has lost momentum recently, due to a weakening euro, crude oil and fuel prices going back up and more wage-based price increases in the service sector, driven by the flourishing summer tourism season recently ended. Leading economic indicators point to decreased economic output in the second half of 2023. The ECB will not be increasing interest rates further to avoid further slowing the economy, remaining in a neutral stance. Economists have revised their economic growth forecast for the euro area from 1.0% down to 0.6% for 2024.

The economic picture for Germany is based on sobering data. The mood remains poor regarding the German economy, but pessimism has declined slightly, looking at the next few months ahead. Production output in the manufacturing sector continues to fall, with new orders down 10% versus the previous year's level. The service sector is not providing much relief as it once had. Government must act in response to the ever more apparent impact of the pandemic, the Russian war of aggression on Ukraine and structural problems in Germany, implementing major reforms. Economists have lowered their GDP growth forecast for 2024 from 0.8% to 0.5%.

Given the major global uncertainties currently existing, DATA MODUL too faces a challenging market environment. Nonetheless, the Group intends to continue systematically executing on its long-termstrategy program as a successful path to follow throughout both good and bad times for the economy. In view of the robust orders situation at present, the Executive Board anticipates that business results for fiscal year 2023 will be satisfactory.
