PRESENTATION OF THE GROUP AND ITS RESULTS REVENUE AND ACTIVITY BY MÉTIER

1.6.3.2 The collections are now punctuated by "bursts of fun", themed events, at the start of or during the season. Stories that can be written through a carré scarf, a twilly or a ring to create surprise by combining fantasy and sophistication. MEN'S SILK The men's carré scarf enjoyed strong momentum this year, driven by a renewed creative drive. This emblematic format expresses its unique character through witty designs. As part of the fall‑winter collection, Les As du volant is a playful story of a frenzied car race, while Jeu d'adresse explores a new graphic universe by playing with the letters of 24, rue du Faubourg Saint‑Honoré. Alongside this, the cashmere and silk rectangle scarf is fast becoming the new accessory for men's silk. As recognisable as a carré scarf by its design, it is worn in an intuitive fashion, like a muffler. Among the new patterns in this collection, Garden of harnesses represents different models of harnesses and stirrups kept in the Émile Hermès Collection. The family of mufflers is expanding and is now a category in its own right. Plain writings and Jacquard designs are emerging as new must‑haves, for example on a small Scottish cashmere muffler with a Brides de gala en désordre drawing. The collections are diversifying thanks to the discovery of exceptional materials such as vicuna and qiviuk, and craftsmanship savoir‑faire such as hand weaving. Leather work is also showcased on embroidered and patched mufflers. The range of ties reaffirms its status as a reference in terms of elegance and allure, and is enriched with models dedicated to ceremonies. Not to mention the more surprising proposals, such as the three ties that reveal a pattern from the carré scarves on their lining: the skeleton horse C’est la fête , the Cheval Punk or the spider‑robot from Flamboyant web . to strong new stories inspired by this year's theme of lightness. Thus, Hermès Story mischievously portrays an acrobatic rider striking a pose, Robe légère shows a horse with a multi‑coloured dress made of flowers, and Sur mon nuage invites you into a dream and an imaginary journey around a seashell‑like cloud. In its wake, the carré 70 confirms the success of its easy‑to‑wear format. In particular, it boasts a design inspired by musical comedies, Hommage à Gene Kelly , with graphic lines and bright colours. Another must‑have in the collections, the family of cashmere products is expanding. Shawls and triangular scarves play with complementary formats, original drawings and colours designed for everyday use. A newcomer made its appearance in spring‑summer, a cashmere that is as light as a veil, in which delicate drawings put the spotlight on the material. For fall‑winter, mufflers are sometimes equestrian, sometimes eccentric.

1.6.3 1.6.3.1 The Silk and Textiles métier generated revenue of €842 million in 2022 and represented 7% of the Group’s consolidated sales. WOMEN'S SILK In the women's silk collections, the twill carré scarf is more than ever the heart of our creativity and dynamism. In its emblematic format, the carré 90 offers an abundant range of designs, from the great classics To travel with peace of mind, Hermès offers a leather‑covered travel battery for charging your smartphone and earphones, either by simple contact using Qi wireless technology, or wired for fast charging. It is available in two sizes, mini or maxi, for a quick top‑up or a full charge, in a range of luminous colours. Made in France and designed to be repairable, Volt'H is part of a responsible approach to developing collections of objects. 1.6.2.3.5 Shoes For 2022, Pierre Hardy, Creative Director of Women’s and Men’s shoes, draws on the very essence of the House and all the creative references that characterise it: its materials, its colours, and its designs. He brings them together to tell stories, create surprise and express the wealth of the métier 's savoir‑faire in an unprecedented way. The models are essential, elegant and light. Innovative and ultra‑light materials are the hallmark of the new spring‑summer products: natural cork platforms and coloured expanded soles for the women’s collection, new Rallye 24 soles and transparent inserts on the men’s hybrid moccasins. Graphic sets of mini and maxi perforations illustrate exceptional leather work. The story being written around clogs is continuing with new models. Vibrant colours pep up both new products and feminine essentials in a spirit that combines simplicity and fantasy, while men's models are dressed in different fabrics, H , denims, technical or cotton in monochromatic or more creative versions. Fall‑winter encourages women to be bold: a new transparent jewel heel, cowboy boots embroidered with the Brides de Gala design or shoes with a running line offer a modern and graphic femininity. Ultra sophistication comes with a new rhinestone finish. For men, the House’s heritage and bootmaking savoir‑faire are in the spotlight with Goodyear‑sewn soles and equestrian‑inspired details or the Ex‑libris that enliven the shoes. Pierre Hardy also imagines mixed all‑terrain and on‑trend models, with rugged urban or outdoor soles and comforting materials for cold days, such as quilted fabric, parachute fabric and shearling. An endless choice of materials, colours and volumes make their mark on sports models, for assertive and contemporary styles. SILK AND TEXTILES
