SURTECO GROUP SE: Annual General Meeting adopts agenda items with a large
majority. Tobias Pott and Jörg Wissemann are once again elected to the
Supervisory Board. Management Board Contract of Andreas Pötz is extended

Munich, 7 June 2024 - At the ordinary Annual General Meeting, the Chairman
of the Management Board of SURTECO GROUP SE reported to the shareholders on
the development of the business in 2023 and outlined the current business
situation. In particular, the high interest rates were the cause of a
significant decline in demand over the past business year. Nevertheless, on
the back of the acquired divisions of Omnova from 1 March 2023, sales rose
to EUR 835 million (2022: EUR 748 million). Earnings before financial result and
income tax (EBIT) adjusted by one-off exceptional effects such as
transaction and integration costs, and provisions for personnel measures
amounted to EUR 37.1 million in 2023 after EUR 40.2 million in the previous
year.

SURTECO made a good start to the business year 2024 in the first quarter
with sales of EUR 222.3 million (2023: EUR 205.7 million) and adjusted EBITDA
(the new indicator for analyzing continuous operational development) of EUR
27.6 million (2023: EUR 19.1 million). In spite of ongoing low demand, the
contributions to earnings provided by the acquired divisions and improved
margins for expense items derived from the results of the Performance Plus
program led to this positive launch to the year.

The agenda items presented to the Annual General Meeting were passed with a
large majority. Hence, Mr. Tobias Pott and Mr. Jörg Wissemann were
re-elected as Members of the Supervisory Board. The Supervisory Board and
the Management Board decided to retain liquidity within the company for this
year and no proposal to pay out a dividend was submitted for a vote.

At the meeting of the Supervisory Board held after the Annual General
Meeting, the Management Board Contract for the CFO of the Group, Mr. Andreas
Pötz, was extended by a further five years.

General Meeting of the company including the voting results and a video
