This presentation is not an offering circular within the meaning of the Swiss Financial Services Act, nor is it a listing prospectus within the meaning of the listing rules of the SIX Swiss Exchange or a prospectus under any other applicable laws.

In this presentation, we utilise certain alternative performance measures including, but not limited to, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, core revenue, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, net capital expenditure, free cash flow, ROCE and cash conversion that in each case are not recognised under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). These alternative non-IFRS measures are presented as we believe that they and similar measures are widely used in the markets in which we operate as a means of evaluating a company's operating performance and financing structure. Our definition of and method of calculating the measures stated above may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and are not measurements under IFRS, as issued by the IASB or other generally accepted accounting principles, are not measures of financial condition, liquidity or profitability and should not be considered as an alternative to profit from operations for the period or operating cash flows determined in accordance with IFRS, nor should they be considered as substitutes for the information contained in our consolidated financial statements

EBITDA is defined as profit or loss before net finance expense, income tax expense, depreciation of property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets, and amortisation of intangible assets.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted to exclude certain non-cash transactions and items of a significant or unusual nature including, but not limited to, transaction- and acquisition-related costs, restructuring costs,

unrealised gains or losses on derivatives, gains or losses on the sale of non- strategic assets, asset impairments and write-downs and share of profit or loss of joint ventures, and to include the cash impact of dividends received from joint ventures.

Adjusted net income is defined as profit or loss adjusted to exclude certain items of significant or unusual nature, including, but not limited to, the non-cash foreign exchange impact of non-functional currency loans, amortisation of transaction costs, the net change in fair value of financing-related derivatives, purchase price allocation ("PPA") depreciation and amortisation, adjustments made to reconcile EBITDA to adjusted EBITDA and the estimated tax impact of the foregoing adjustments. The PPA depreciation and amortisation arose due to the acquisition accounting that was performed when the Group was acquired by Onex in 2015. No adjustments are made for PPA depreciation and amortisation other than in connection with the Onex acquisition.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income are not performance measures under IFRS, are not measures of financial condition, liquidity or profitability and should not be considered as alternatives to profit (loss) for the period, operating profit or any other performance measures determined or derived in accordance with IFRS or operating cash flows determined in accordance with IFRS.

Additionally, adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management's discretionary use, as it does not take into account certain items such as interest and principal payments on our indebtedness, working capital needs and tax payments. We believe that the inclusion of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income in this presentation is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about our operating performance to provide a measure of operating results unaffected by differences in capital structures, capital investment cycles and ages of related assets among otherwise comparable companies. Because not all companies calculate adjusted EBITDA, core revenue, adjusted net income and other alternative performance measures in this presentation identically, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures in other companies.

For additional information about alternative performance measures used by management that are not defined in IFRS, including definitions and reconciliations to measures defined in IFRS, the change in our calculation methodology for constant currency and a definition of like-for-likegrowth rates please refer to this link:https://reports.sig.biz/annual-report-2020/services/glossary.html
