STATEMENTS Consolidated fi nancial statements - fi nancial year ended December 31, 2024

Objective of earmarked assets, portfolio of earmarked securities and end-of-lifecycle receivables To secure the funding of end-of-lifecycle obligations, the group has built up a special portfolio earmarked for the payment of its future facility dismantling and waste management expenses. This obligation has applied to all nuclear operators in France since law No. 2006-739 of June 28, 2006, and implementing decree No. 2007-243 of February 23, 2007, came into force. This portfolio was composed based on a schedule of disbursements over more than a century and is therefore managed with long-term objectives. The portfolio is comprised of fi nancial assets intended to cover all of the group’s commitments, whether related to obligations imposed by the law of June 28, 2006, for regulated nuclear facilities located in France, or related to other end-of-lifecycle commitments for facilities located in France. Long-term asset allocations indicate the target percentage of assets to cover liabilities (bonds and money market assets, including receivables from third parties) and diversi fi cation assets (shares, etc .), subject to limits imposed by decree No. 2007-243 of February 23, 2007 and its amendment by decree No. 2013-678 of July 24, 2013, both in terms of the control and spread of risks and in terms of the type of investments. In December 2024, Orano contributed 102 million euros to the dismantling funds, a portion of which in respect of end-of-lifecycle commitments resulting from the signature of contracts with Japanese customers as part of the waste return operation.

At December 31, 2024, for the end-of-lifecycle obligations falling within the scope of Articles L. 594-1 et seq . of the French Environmental Code, the legal entities comprising Orano had earmarked assets representing 97.0% of end-of-lifecycle liabilities (compared with 100.2% at December 31, 2023) in accordance with regulatory requirements.

The group relies on independent consultants to study strategic target asset allocations to optimize the risk/return of the portfolio over the long term and to advise it on the choice of asset classes and portfolio managers. This work is presented to the End-of-Lifecycle Obligations Monitoring Committee of the Board of Directors.
