Our Sustainability Report has been prepared in accordance with the Voluntary Reporting Standard for SMEs (VSME). The report covers both the Basic and Comprehensive modules of the standard. This report has been approved by Executive Management at Cimcorp Group.

The VSME standard is published by the European Financial Report Advisory Group (EFRAG) and is designed for small and medium-sized enterprises. It supports transparent, comparable sustainability reporting in a practical way.

The scope of the Cimcorp Group Sustainability Report covers the parent company Cimcorp Oy and its subsidiaries Cimcorp Automation Ltd from Canada and its’ subsidiary Cimcorp USA Inc., Cimcorp Iberia S.L. from Spain, Cimcorp UK Ltd from United Kingdom, Cimcorp Industrial Automation India Private Limited from India, Cimcorp Australia Pty Ltd from Australia and branch Cimcorp Oy Germany.

The reporting period follows Cimcorp Group’s financial statements and covers the period from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025. No standard disclosures have been omitted due to confidentiality or sensitivity. Where information is not available, this is clearly stated. Some information applies only to the parent company Cimcorp Oy. The sustainability topics included in this report were identified as material through a double materiality assessment carried out in 2024.

This first voluntary Sustainability Report marks an important milestone for Cimcorp Group. It has helped us assess our current impact, clarify our priorities and set a clearer direction for sustainability across the company.

Our customers, partners and employees expect automation that delivers operational excellence and is built on sustainable practices. In this report, we outline the actions we are taking to meet those expectations: improving our environmental performance, supporting and developing our people, and strengthening transparency and accountability in how we operate.

Automation plays a key role in building the future. Our aim is to ensure that this future is efficient, safe and sustainable. We see clear opportunities to further develop our technologies and services, so they reduce waste and emissions, improve safety and strengthen supply chain resilience.

We will continue this work through steady development, continuous improvement and close collaboration across our global network. By working together in this way, we aim to shape the future of automation and create long-term value for our stakeholders, contributing to a more sustainable society.

Veli-Matti Hakala, CEO, Cimcorp Group

Sustainability is integrated into how we design solutions and how we operate.

In solution design, we prioritize energy efficiency, intelligent space use and material efficiency. Our systems are built for long lifetimes and scalability. We help customers generate more value from their assets while reducing resource use.

Through Success Services, including uptime support, upgrades, certified spare parts and training, we extend system lifetimes and reduce replacement-driven impacts. In our own operations, we focus on fair employment, inclusion, safety and responsible leadership to ensure our practices are responsible and people centered.

Cimcorp creates value by designing, delivering and supporting automation that makes intralogistics reliable, scalable and efficient. Our impact extends across the full lifecycle of a solution: from suppliers to system operation to modernization and end-of-life.

Our Cimcorpers work across Finland, Germany, the United Kingdom, Spain, the United States, Canada, India and Australia. In addition to our offices, many Cimcorpers work on customer projects around the world, bringing their expertise directly to the places where automation makes a difference.

We are committed to providing a fair, inclusive and respectful workplace where every Cimcorper can contribute, grow and feel valued. We have zero tolerance for harassment, bullying or discrimination. Confidential channels are available for raising concerns safely and without fear of retaliation.

In 2025, Cimcorp Group employed 516 Cimcorpers globally. We also work with temporary agency professionals and selected subcontractors when project needs require additional expertise.

We use recognized job evaluation frameworks and local salary benchmarks to ensure fair compensation in each country and that pay levels exceed the local living wage. In Cimcorp Finland, the gender pay gap in 2025 was 2,6 % (calculated for senior salaried employees representing 80 % of Cimcorp Finland’s workforce).

As we operate in a male‑dominated technical field, and men on average have longer careers in our company, they more often progress into higher‑graded roles through accumulated experience. This contributes to the overall pay gap. We are actively supporting equal career progression. As the proportion of women and their average tenure increase, the share of women in higher‑graded roles will also grow over time.

Cimcorp has grown strongly in recent years, and many Cimcorpers have joined us during this period of expansion. At the same time, we value long-term careers. Some Cimcorpers have been part of our journey for more than 40 years. In 2025, our global employee turnover rate was 4,7 %, reflecting strong engagement and commitment across our teams.

Our Cimcorpers are the foundation of everything we do. Their expertise, collaboration and dedication drive our success today and shape our future in automation.

We will also implement a structured wellbeing model and integrate it into daily management and HR processes. Supervisors will receive additional coaching in early support and intervention practices, and we will define clear indicators to monitor work ability and psychosocial wellbeing.

OUR GOAL REMAINS CLEAR: A SAFE, SUPPORTIVE WORKPLACE WHERE EVERY CIMCORPER CAN THRIVE.

At Cimcorp, learning is part of everyday work.

We believe that when Cimcorpers grow, our company grows with them. Continuous learning supports personal development, strengthens teamwork and builds the capabilities we need for the future.

Cimcorpers take part in various forms of education and training during working hours covering for example safety, wellbeing, leadership, compliance, technical expertise and language skills. We encourage career development through internal mobility, mentoring and leadership programs, creating real opportunities to explore new paths and take on new responsibilities.

Mandatory training is monitored to ensure shared standards across the organization. In 2025, Cimcorpers completed on average 18,1 hours of recorded training per person. Information on training hours broken down by gender is not currently available.

Open dialogue is an important part of our culture. Through the Cimcorpers’ Development Cycle, we regularly discuss performance, goals and wellbeing. Employee surveys, such as Cimcorp Pulse, help us listen and improve. At the end of 2025, our global eNPS score was 14, a result we are committed to strengthening further.

Acting responsibly is part of who we are.

Cimcorp’s Code of Conduct defines how we treat each other and how we do business. It sets clear expectations for ethical behavior, respect for human rights, non-discrimination and equal treatment. Forced labor, child labor and modern slavery are strictly prohibited, both in our own operations and throughout our supply chain.

We encourage open dialogue. Cimcorpers and external stakeholders can raise concerns through our confidential whistleblowing channel. We are committed to non-retaliation for anyone who reports concerns in good faith. In 2025, no confirmed human rights incidents were recorded in our workforce or value chain.

Customer responsibility and product safety are equally important. Safety is built into every stage of our automation systems, from design and risk assessment to installation, onboarding and ongoing lifecycle support.

We provide clear documentation, practical training and 24/7 support to help customers operate their systems safely and efficiently. Customer feedback, incidents and complaints are carefully monitored and used to strengthen safety, reliability and quality over time.
