1. FIRST QUARTER REVENUES WERE UP +5% ORGANIC

2024 Q1 revenues were €8,606 million, up +5.3% organic and up +1.3% on a reported basis.

Products (53% of Q1 revenues) grew +2% organic in Q1, impacted by fewer working days in the quarter compared to last year. Product revenues grew in Energy Management with sales into consumer-linked segments having stabilized in a majority of geographies, coupled with good growth across a range of other segments and end-markets. Industrial Automation product revenues contracted, impacted by weak Discrete automation markets notably in Western Europe and East Asia, while China showed positive growth in the quarter. Across the Group, price contribution returned to a normalized level, as expected, and product volumes were positive.

Systems (28% of Q1 revenues) grew +14% organic in Q1, with strong double-digit organic sales growth in Energy Management supported by continued strong demand, including in Data Center and Infrastructure end- markets. In Industrial Automation, systems sales into Process & Hybrid markets saw good growth, however weak demand from OEMs impacted systems sales into Discrete automation markets.

Software & Services (19% of Q1 revenues) grew +5% organic in Q1.

Software and Digital Services (8% of Q1 revenues) contracted -4%organic in Q1.

The Group's agnostic software offering under its 'One Software' strategy comprises AVEVA, RIB Software and ETAP, which represented revenues of c. €1.9 billion in FY 2023 on a proforma basis adjusted for disposals at RIB Software in 2023.

• In Q1, AVEVA continued its transition to subscription, delivering double-digit growth in Annualized Recurring Revenue (ARR), up +13% as of 31 March 2024, while facing a high base of comparison for organic growth as March 2023 represented the end of the previous AVEVA fiscal-year. AVEVA's year- end has since been aligned to December consistent with the rest of the Group. The ARR growth was broad-based by geography with all regions contributing well, led by the EMEA region. There was a strong level of upsell to the existing customer base on contract renewals, while churn remained low. The transition to subscription remains on track, leading to particularly strong organic growth for Software as a Service (SaaS) revenues.
• Energy Management agnostic software offers delivered mid-single digit organic revenue growth in Q1, with contribution from the Group's eCAD offer (ETAP) and the Group's software offer for the construction market (RIB Software). Both RIB and ETAP saw very good underlying business growth and strong growth in recurring revenues, while overall organic revenue growth was impacted by a planned decline in perpetual licenses as the businesses transition to a subscription model.

The Group's Digital Services offering comprises its internally generated EcoStruxure solutions and advisors, and its digital offers for prosumers. These represented revenues of c. €1.0 billion in FY 2023.

• Digital Services delivered strong growth in Q1, driven by performance in Energy Management Advisors, and continued strong traction for Grid digitization and modernization offers such as ADMS.

Field Services (11% of Q1 revenues) grew +12% organic in Q1, with double-digit growth in both businesses. Energy Management services benefitted from strong trends associated with Data Centers, Infrastructure and the renovation of Non-residential buildings in mature economies. Industrial Automation delivered strong services growth across both Discrete and Process & Hybrid automation segments.

Sustainability Business (split between Digital and Field Services): The Group's sustainability consulting and advisory offers delivered good growth in Q1, with strong performance in renewables/PPA advisory, while continuing to act as a catalyst for pull-throughfor other Group offers. The Group's public sector efficiency business was down against a double-digitbase of comparison, while demand for private sector projects showed good traction. The Sustainability business was subject to a cyber incident during the quarter as already disclosed at the time, which has since been resolved, reinforcing our governance and commitment to cybersecurity. There was good progress on the integration of the recently acquired EcoAct into the wider Sustainability Business portfolio (Q1 performance reported as scope impact).

Demand in Water & Wastewater (WWW) was down, though growing for Industrial Automation offers while Energy Management offers faced a high base of comparison.

• Industry - The Group sells its unique combination of Energy Management and Industrial Automation offers into the Industry end-market. During Q1, demand for Energy Management offers remained stronger than that for Industrial Automation. Discrete automation demand was down year-on-year as expected, though seeing sequential improvement driven by OEMs in many key geographies. Discrete automation sales were strong in the Middle East, while China returned to growth, but in particular, Western Europe and East Asia continue to be impacted as OEMs and Distributors rebalance inventories to reflect the improved supply environment, with lead-times having normalized in most regions. In Process & Hybrid industries, demand was down with the Metals, Mining & Minerals (MMM) and Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) segments facing a high base of comparison. Automation equipment sales continued to show good growth, up mid-single digit in the quarter, despite also facing a high base of comparison, supported by strong project execution in the Middle East.

Group trends by geography:

North America (35% of Q1 2024 revenues) grew +7.1% organic in Q1.

Energy Management grew +10.2% organic against a strong double-digit base of comparison in all three economies of the region. Against this backdrop, the U.S. was up double-digit, Mexico grew low-single digit while Canada was flat. Across the region, there was strong growth in Systems revenues supported by continued traction in Data Center and Infrastructure end-markets, primarily in the U.S. Product revenues were up low- single digit, where supply constraints resulting from an extended period of high demand have impacted sales growth, particularly in the Residential buildings market in the U.S. These constraints remain a key point of management attention and focus. Across the region, there was double-digit growth in Field Services, with good traction for those associated with Data Center and the digitization of Non-residential buildings.

Industrial Automation was down -9.9% organic. The U.S. was down, impacted by timing at AVEVA, while Annualized Recurring Revenue (ARR) growth continues to indicate good traction in the business. Sales into Discrete automation markets were also down, driven by a demand normalization in response to elevated levels of stock held by customers as anticipated, while project timing impacted growth in Process & Hybrid markets. Canada delivered double-digit growth led by strong performance in Process & Hybrid markets. Mexico declined with a combination of strong base of comparison due to project execution in the prior year in Process & Hybrid markets and inventory normalization in Discrete automation markets.

Western Europe (25% of Q1 2024 revenues) was down -1.5% organic in Q1.

Energy Management was up +3.6% organic, with a double-digit base of comparison in each of the five major economies of the region. Growth was led by Italy which was up double-digit, while Germany grew high-single digit, France grew mid-single digit, and the U.K. also saw growth while Spain contracted. The region saw strong growth in Field Services, linked to ongoing trends of retrofit and modernization, and supported by backlog execution. Systems revenues grew strongly across the region, with continued traction in the Data Center and Infrastructure end-markets. As expected, Product demand was subdued, with sales growth around flat as Residential markets remained impacted. Software growth was impacted by continued softness in construction markets and subscription transition at RIB Software. Across the rest of the region, there was strong growth in the Nordics, though several other countries faced a high base of comparison.

In Industrial Automation, which was down -15.6% organic, performance in France was relatively better than elsewhere in the region, down mid-single digit, helped in part by strong growth at AVEVA, while each of Germany, Italy, Spain were down double-digit against a strong double-digit base of comparison. The U.K. also declined double-digit, mostly due to timing on Software renewals. Discrete automation remained weak across

the region as expected, notably in Germany and Italy, with the U.K. being the only major economy to show growth due to good activity with channel partners. Process markets were relatively better oriented, with good growth in several countries, led by the U.K. which grew double-digit. Across the region AVEVA was down in the quarter, mostly driven by the U.K., though did deliver good growth in France and the Nordics.

Asia Pacific (27% of Q1 2024 revenues) grew +4.0% organic, with China up mid-single digit and India up double-digit.

In Energy Management, which grew +6.4% organic, China was up high-single digit with continued strength in renewable power, transportation infrastructure projects and energy management offers sold into MMM and Energies & Chemicals (E&C) segments. Buildings markets remained soft, though with some opportunity in retrofit and renovation, with new construction weak. India, which ranks third in size of Group revenues, once again delivered double-digit growth with strength across multiple end-markets, supported by capex investment in medium and large sized projects, contributing strongly to the overall growth of the Group. Australia grew mid- single digit, benefitting from strong activity in Data Centers and investment in the energy transition, while Residential markets remained stable to slightly positive. Performance across the rest of the region was down in aggregate, with declines across several countries in Southeast Asia where construction markets remained soft.

In Industrial Automation, which contracted -2.6% organic, China was up mid-single digit with a return to growth in Discrete automation markets driven by improving demand from customers operating in some export markets, and growth in certain segments including electronics. Sales into Process & Hybrid automation markets remained strong, with good performance in MMM and CPG. India delivered good growth in both Discrete and Process & Hybrid automation markets, against a strong double-digit base of comparison, though was down slightly overall attributable to timing on Software renewals at AVEVA. Japan and Korea were both down, with each remaining weak in Discrete automation markets with soft OEM demand linked to weakness in China and across East Asia. Australia delivered strong double-digit growth driven by strong growth at AVEVA and with good sales growth in Process & Hybrid markets while Discrete automation was down.

Rest of the World (13% of Q1 2024 revenues) grew +19.5% organic. Growth was led by Middle East and Africa with countries including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Morocco growing double digit. Turkey, Argentina and Egypt also saw strong double-digit growth, in part due to pricing in response to currency devaluation, however even excluding these three countries Rest of the World grew double-digit organic in Q1.

Energy Management grew +23.5% organic. Growth was led by the Middle East which was up strong double- digit, led by Saudi Arabia and UAE, with good traction in both the strong local partner network and direct customer sales. Africa also grew strong double-digit, particularly in Morocco and seeing strong execution on Infrastructure projects across the region. The growth rate in South America benefitted from currency devaluation in Argentina and was flat excluding this effect, with Brazil growing strongly, supported by a new medium offer in the Buildings market and digital offers in the Infrastructure market, while Colombia declined. Central & Eastern Europe delivered solid growth.

Industrial Automation grew +9.6% organic. The Middle East was up double-digit, growing strongly in both Discrete and Process & Hybrid markets while Software was down, impacted by timing at AVEVA. Africa saw good growth in Process & Hybrid automation markets supported by project execution across the region, while growth in Discrete automation markets was down slightly when excluding Egypt, which benefitted from price actions in response to currency devaluation. In South America, sales into both Discrete and Process & Hybrid markets declined excluding Argentina, as Brazil continues to recover from supply issues from last year. Central & Eastern Europe declined with Discrete markets following similar trends to Western Europe.

1. SCHNEIDER SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT

Schneider Electric today announced the 2024 first quarter results of its Schneider Sustainability Impact (SSI) program.

This transformative program drives and measures the company's progress toward global sustainability 2021- 2025 targets contributing to six long-termcommitmentsthat cover all environmental, social, and governance (ESG) dimensions.

Continuing 2023's strong results, this quarter saw headway in sustainable packaging and supply chain programs, as well as on the inclusion front with progress on access to energy and training in energy management.

Additionally, all zone and country presidents extended their local impactinitiatives, following the successful mobilization and advancement of the 200+ initiatives they started in 2021. These grassroot programs aim to amplify the company's sustainable impact by supporting and empowering local communities with training and mentoring, energy resiliency, environmental action and more.

"At Schneider Electric, delivering social and environmental progress is galvanizing. Impact keeps us moving and looking forward", comments Xavier Denoly, Senior Vice President of Sustainability Development at Schneider Electric. "This is why we are constantly in motion, raising the bar with more concrete initiatives, meaningful innovation and ecosystem-wide collaboration - all the while remaining focused on delivering on our ESG action plan."

Schneider Electric's SSI score in Q1 2024 reaches 6.43 out of 10 (on its way to the year-end target of 7.40 out of 10), a promising start to the year that coincides with the launch of Schneider Electric's refreshed employee

1. Changes in scope of consolidation also include some minor reclassifications of offers among different businesses.
2. For those currencies meeting the criteria to be considered hyperinflationary under IAS 29, such as Argentina and Turkey, an IFRS technical adjustment for hyperinflation impact is reflected as FX and therefore excluded from the organic growth calculation. The effect of operational actions taken in these countries such as increased pricing to mitigate the inflationary impact is reflected as part of the organic growth.
3. Forward exchange rates are volatile and difficult to predict. Consequently, the impact of such movement and possible impacts from hyperinflation technical accounting (IAS29) are not factored at this stage.
