MANAGEMENT’S REVIEW
CURRENT BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
Volumes and prices
Organic growth was 6% in Q2 2026, supported
by a normalisation of activity after the severe
weather disruption in Q1 and a strong rebound
in Poland. For the first six months of 2026,
organic growth was negative 5%.
Sales volumes increased by 4% year-on-year in
Q2 2026. Poland recovered strongly from the
weak Q1, while UK volumes remained below
last year and Central Western Europe continued
to reflect subdued demand in Germany.
Revenue per m
3
are higher compared to the
same period last year, reflecting pass-through of
increasing input costs.
German refocus
The strategic changes in Germany initiated in
2025 are delivering the expected improvements
and the underlying business development is in
line with plan.
Regional market development
CWE
In Germany, the residential new-build market
continued to stabilise during Q2 2026. Growth in
building permits year-on-year is 17%, indicating
improving market sentiment, although
construction activity remains significantly below
historical levels.
The increase in permits has not yet resulted in a
material recovery in housing starts, as elevated
construction costs, financing constraints and
affordability challenges continue to delay project
execution. Nevertheless, structural housing
undersupply and improving permit trends
suggest that the market has moved past the
trough, supporting a gradual recovery outlook for
residential construction.
Markets in Denmark and The Netherlands see
positive trends while Switzerland remains stable.
UK
Private housing demand continued to be
constrained by affordability pressures, cautious
consumer confidence and mortgage rates that
remained elevated relative to expectations at the
start of the year.
Market conditions became more mixed during
the period. Registrations are down 5% year-on-
year. The new UK government led by Prime
Minister Andy Burnham has reiterated its
commitment to addressing the country's
structural housing shortage through support for
housebuilding. While the impact of these
initiatives is expected to materialise gradually,
they provide a supportive backdrop for the
sector over the medium to long term, although
near-term market conditions remain challenging.
Near-term demand remains affected by
affordability constraints, subdued buyer
confidence and lower levels of new-home
registrations earlier in 2026.
As a result, sentiment became more cautious
compared with the optimism seen in late 2025
and early 2026. Expectations for a market
recovery have been pushed out, although the
structural undersupply of housing and underlying
demand fundamentals continue to support the
sector's longer-term growth prospects.
Poland
Building permit activity remained strong,
increasing by 19% year-on-year and providing
good visibility on future construction activity. The
growth reflects both healthy underlying market
conditions and a likely pull-forward effect from
Poland's upcoming planning reform, as
developers seek to secure development rights
ahead of regulatory changes. Consequently, the
current permit growth may overstate the
underlying pace of market expansion.
Market conditions remain supportive,
underpinned by a robust macroeconomic
environment, rising household incomes and
stable housing demand. While sales activity
eased from the exceptionally strong levels seen
at the end of the first quarter, demand remained
solid and pricing trends were broadly stable.
Poland continues to offer the strongest growth
prospects within the Group and is expected to
remain the Group's strongest market in 2026.

Interim financial report
H1-2026
NOTES
1. Accounting policies
The interim financial report for the period 1 January to 30 June 2026 has been prepared in accordance
with the IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as adopted by the EU and additional Danish disclosure
requirements for the interim financial reports of listed companies. The application of IAS 34 means that
the disclosures are more limited than in a complete annual report, but that the interim financial report
complies with the recognition and measurement principles in the International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS). The interim financial report has not been reviewed by H+H’s auditors.
The accounting policies are consistent with those applied in the 2025 Annual Report, which includes a full
description of the accounting policies applied.
Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the
Executive Management team, which is identified as the chief operating decision-making body (‘CODM’)
under IFRS 8. The Executive Management team is responsible for allocating resources and assessing
the performance of the Group’s operating segments.
The Group’s operating segments are determined based on geographical markets, as this reflects the
manner in which operations are managed and performance is evaluated internally. Accordingly, the
Group has identified three operating segments: CWE (Central Western Europe), UK and Poland. The
primary activity of all reportable segments is production and sale of building blocks used for wall building,
foundations and precast wall panel solutions, primarily in the residential new-build market.
Segment performance is assessed based on measures regularly reviewed by the Executive Management
team and applied consistently across segments, being EBIT before special items. Certain costs relating to
the Group’s headquarters functions in Denmark, including governance, strategic management and other
Group-wide activities, are not directly attributable to the operating segments. These costs are therefore
not allocated and are disclosed as other activities in the segment information.
The Group’s operating segments are unchanged compared to the 2025 Annual Report. However,
Management has decided not to apply the aggregation criteria set out in IFRS 8.12, and the individual
operating segments are therefore presented separately as reportable segments.
2. Adoption of new and revised IFRSs
H+H International A/S has adopted all new or revised and amended International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRSs) and interpretations (IFRIC) issued by IASB and endorsed by the EU effective for the
financial year 2026. It is assessed that the revisions and amendments have not had a material impact on
the consolidated financial statements.
3. Risk Management
H+H’s principal risks and the external factors that may affect H+H are provided in the 2025 Annual
Report. These are unchanged as of 30 June 2026.

Interim financial report
H1-2026
4. Significant accounting estimates and judgements
Determining the carrying amounts of some assets and liabilities requires Management to make
judgements, estimates and assumptions concerning future events. The estimates and assumptions made
are based on historical experience and other factors that are believed by Management to be sound under
the circumstances but that, by their nature, are uncertain and unpredictable. Financial statement items in
which more significant accounting estimates and judgements are applied are listed in Note 2 of the 2025
Annual report for H+H International A/S.
The estimates and assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate, and unforeseen events or
circumstances may occur. Moreover, the H+H Group is subject to risks and uncertainties that may lead to
the actual outcomes vary from these estimates and assumptions. It may be necessary to change
estimates and assumptions made previously as a result of changes in the factors on which these were
based or as a result of new knowledge or subsequent events.
5. Seasonal fluctuations
The sales pattern for H+H’s products is seasonal. Sales in the second and third quarters are traditionally
higher than during the rest of the year. As a part of H+H’s cost base is not directly variable with revenue,
deviations from projected sales may result in considerable fluctuations in the Company’s earnings.

7. Income statement classified by function
The above table shows an extract of the income statement adapted to show depreciation and
amortisation classified by function.
8. Pension obligations
H+H has defined-benefit pension plans in the UK, Switzerland, and Germany. The UK and Swiss pension
plans are managed by a pension fund to which payments are made, whereas the German pension plan is
funded from current earnings. H+H’s pension obligations predominantly relate to the plans in the UK.
For interim periods, H+H’s defined-benefit pension obligations are based on valuations from external
actuaries carried out at the end of prior financial year considering any subsequent movements in the
obligation due to pension costs, contributions etc. up until the reporting date. Actuarial calculations are
updated or extrapolated quarterly.
The net pension obligation on 30 June 2026 amounts to DKK 15 million compared to DKK 14 million on
31 December 2025.
9. Financial resources and cash flow
On 30 June 2026, net interest-bearing debt, totalled DKK 825 million corresponding to an increase of
DKK 23 million since the beginning of the year.
H+H’s financing is subject to usual financial covenants, which have been fulfilled in the first six months of
2026 and are also expected to be fulfilled for the full year 2026.

10. Share-based payment
The performance-share-units schemes for 2025 and 2024 are active and presented in the 2025 Annual
Report.
In April 2026, the Board of Directors of H+H International A/S implemented a new long-term incentive
programme (“LTIP”) being a performance share unit (“PSU”) program. At initiation, a total of
approximately 133,100 PSUs were granted to the participants, including 41,650 PSUs to CEO Jörg
Brinkmann and 17,500 PSUs to CFO Bjarne Pedersen. Based on the average share price for H+H shares
trading on the Nasdaq Copenhagen stock exchange during the first ten business days after the release of
the 2025 Annual Report on 3 March 2026, the theoretical value per PSU is DKK 83.45, corresponding to
a total theoretical value of DKK 11.1 million if all 133,100 were to vest. The vesting period for the PSUs is
approximately three years, with vesting being in 2029 when the audited annual report for 2028 is
published.
