Opinion In compliance with the engagement entrusted to us by your Annual General Meeting, we have audited the accompanying consolidated fi nancial statements of Orano for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The audit opinion expressed above is consistent with our report to the Audit and Ethics Committee. Audit framework We conducted our audit in accordance with professional standards applicable in France. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is suf fi cient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Our responsibilities under these standards are further described in the “Responsibilities of the Statutory Auditors relating to the audit of the consolidated fi nancial statements” section of our report. Independence We conducted our audit engagement in compliance with the independence rules provided for in the French Commercial Code (Code de commerce) and the French Code of Ethics (Code de déontologie) for Statutory Auditors for the period from January 1, 2024 to the date of our report, and, in particular, we did not provide any non-audit services prohibited by Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No. 537/2014. Basis for opinion
Justi fi cation of assessments – Key audit matters In accordance with the requirements of Articles L.821-53 and R.821-180 of the French Commercial Code relating to the justi fi cation of our assessments, we inform you of the key audit matters relating to the risks of material misstatement that, in our professional judgment, were the most signi fi cant in our audit of the consolidated fi nancial statements, as well as how we addressed those risks. These matters were addressed as part of our audit of the consolidated fi nancial statements as a whole, and therefore contributed to the opinion we formed as expressed above. We do not provide a separate opinion on speci fi c items of the consolidated fi nancial statements. Measurement of the goodwill, property, plant and equipment and intangible assets of the Group’s Mining and Front End activities Description of risk At December 31, 2024, the carrying amount of goodwill, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment relating to the Group’s Mining and Front End activities amounted to 7,024 million euros.
