EQS-Ad-hoc: Schaeffler AG / Key word(s): Change in Forecast/Preliminary Results Herzogenaurach, 28 October 2025 - Based on preliminary figures for the third quarter 2025 (Q3 2025), Schaeffler AG (DE000SHA0100) raises guidance for free cash flow before cash in- and outflows for M&A activities (adjusted FCF) for fiscal year 2025. According to the preliminary Q3 2025results, fx-adjusted sales growth for the reporting period came in at 1.3% (market consensus as of 23 October 2025: -0.5%). Schaeffler AG’s EBIT margin before special items improved year-on-year to 4.5% (pro-forma Q3 2024: 3.5%; market consensus: 4.1%) based on preliminary calculations. Due to the higher profitability, strict working capital management and a cautious investment policy within Schaeffler Group given the market environment, adjusted FCF improved to EUR 175 mn (pro-forma Q3 2024: EUR -364 mn; market consensus: EUR 110 mn) accordingly. Based on the positive adjusted FCF development year-to-date, Schaeffler AG now expects adjusted FCF for fiscal year 2025 to range between EUR 0 mn and EUR 200 mn (previous guidance: EUR -200 mn to EUR 0 mn). Guidance at group level for the other guidance KPIs is confirmed: fx-adjusted sales are expected to grow considerably year-on-year and the adjusted EBIT margin is forecast to come in between 3% and 5%. In this context, Schaeffler AG’s Executive Board also decided to increase the target corridor for the EBIT margin before special items for the division Bearings & Industrial Solutions for the full year from previously 5 to 7% to 6 to 8%. Schaeffler AG will publish further details on the Q3 2025 development at Group and divisional level on Tuesday, 4 November 2025.
