Jim Johnson, Chief Executive of Hunting, commented:

"The encouraging performance at the half year has continued into the third quarter with Hunting delivering a 15% year-on-year increase in its year-to-date EBITDA thanks to trading within the OCTG product group.

"The integration of FES has continued in the quarter with strong cross selling opportunities being identified, above those anticipated at the time of acquisition.

"Our balance sheet remains strong, coupled with a robust year-end cash projection and Hunting retains c.$336.5 million of liquidity available to pursue growth opportunities, while also balancing these with increased shareholder returns. Management is also continuing to review high quality acquisition opportunities, with a focus on subsea and well completions."

Q3 Trading Update

Hunting's trading performance during Q3 2025 was, overall, in-line with management's expectations across most operating segments and product groups.

The Hunting Titan operating segment reports stronger profitability compared to the prior year, as management focus on improved production efficiencies, while also capitalising on market activity in South America and the Middle East. Trading within the North America operating segment has been marginally ahead of expectations, due to strong OCTG sales in the period, offsetting some softness within the Advanced Manufacturing product group. The Subsea Technologies operating segment delivered better results throughout the quarter as orders for ExxonMobil Guyana and TPAO in the Black Sea were progressed. Management now expects FES to contribute c.$3 million to the Group's EBITDA result for 2025. Multiple cross selling opportunities have been identified since acquisition, which are being developed by management, as the integration continues. The restructuring within the EMEA operating segment continues, with the facilities being closed in the Netherlands and Norway in the period, coupled with the opening of the Group's larger facility in Dubai, UAE. This led to some disruption to trading during the quarter. The Group's Asia Pacific operating segment has continued to trade in line with expectations.

Year-to-date EBITDA of c.$100.5 million reflects an in-line trading result across all the Group's product groups and operating segments. Group EBITDA margin of c.13% has been achieved in the year-to-date.

On 30 September 2025, total cash and bank / (borrowings) was c.$47.1 million.

Under the Company's share buyback programme, which began on 28 August 2025, 3,510,198 Ordinary shares have been purchased for cancellation, absorbing c.$15.6 million to 21 October 2025 before costs.

The Group's balance sheet remains strong, with net assets on 30 September 2025 of c.$907 million. Working capital is marginally higher since the Half Year at c.$366.5 million, reflecting raw materials purchases made in the quarter for committed orders. Management anticipates that working capital will reduce by c.$25 million by the year-end.

The 2025 interim dividend of 6.2 cents per share will be paid on Friday 31 October 2025, which will absorb c.$9.6 million.

Capital expenditure for the full year is now anticipated to be c.$35-$40 million, comprising tangible and intangible expenditure.

The Group continues to report a strong tender pipeline across most product groups. New, large tenders are being assessed by management for the Group's OCTG product group. Management has a positive outlook for Subsea orders, as new tenders are anticipated to be issued during 2026.

Management continues to evaluate several acquisition opportunities, with the focus remaining on subsea and well completion targets.

Outlook and 2025 Outturn

The Directors remain vigilant and continue to monitor the macro-environment closely for increased signs of volatility. Trading remains steady across most product groups, with the expected outturn for the year at the lower end of the Company's guidance range of $135-$145 million. Year-end cash and bank / (borrowings) is likely to be in the range of $40-$45 million, assuming that the share buyback continues at the current rate of market purchases.

Date of Next Trading Update

The Group's next Trading Update is scheduled for Tuesday 13 January 2026.
