Statement of Compliance with the German Corporate Governance Code

The Supervisory Board and Management Board of NORMA Group SE have examined in detail the recommendations and suggestions of the German Corporate Governance Code NORMA Group SE that should follow and explain regularly, at least once a year – in the course of issuing the Statement of Compliance – which recommendations are deviated from and the reasons for doing so.

The Statement of Compliance dated November 27, 2025, and all previous Statements of Compliance and updates to previous Statements of Compliance are published in the Investor Relations section of the NORMA Group SE website. WWW.NORMAGROUP.COM

The statement dated November 27, 2025 reads as follows:

Since issuing the last statement on February 28, 2025, NORMA Group SE has complied with the version of the recommendations of the Government Commission on the German Corporate Governance Code (GCGC) dated April 28, 2022, published by the Federal Ministry of Justice in the official section of the Federal Gazette (‘Bundesanzeiger’) on June 27, 2022, with the following exception:

Recommendation D.3 (5) GCGC:

In accordance with recommendation D.3 (5) of the Code, the Chair of the Supervisory Board shall not chair the Audit Committee. With effect as of February 18, 2025, the Supervisory Board of NORMA Group SE has elected the Chair of the Audit Committee of the Supervisory Board, Ms. Kerstin Müller-Kirchhofs, also as Chair of the

Supervisory Board on a transitional basis. The background for this was that after the departure of Mr. Guido Grandi as CEO, the then-Chair of the Supervisory Board, Mr. Mark Wilhelms, was appointed as a member of the Management Board and Interim CEO of NORMA Group SE on a transitional basis for a maximum of one year with effect from February 18, 2025. During the period of Mr. Wilhelms’ activity on the Management Board, his appointment as a member of the Supervisory Board was suspended.

The deviation no longer applies. By resolution dated August 4, 2025, the Supervisory Board appointed Ms. Birgit Seeger as a member and Chair of the Management Board with effect from November 1, 2025. On this date, Mr. Wilhelms resumed his activities on the Supervisory Board. At its meeting on November 27, 2025, the Supervisory Board re-elected Mr. Wilhelms as Chair of the Supervisory Board. As before, Mr. Wilhelms does not chair the Audit Committee. This function will continue to be performed by Ms. Müller-Kirchhofs. NORMA Group SE thus fully complies with the recommendations of the GCGC and is expected to continue to fully comply with the recommendations of the GCGC in the future.
