OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT

Operating in Ukraine and across international markets, the Group continues to navigate a highly challenging and evolving operating environment. During the period, the War in Ukraine intensified further, marked by an increased frequency and severity of large-scale attacks on critical infrastructure and civilian areas, contributing to heightened security and operational risks. At the same time, broader geopolitical tensions, including the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, have continued to weigh on the global macroeconomic environment, creating uncertainty across energy, logistics, and supply chains. Poultry meat market conditions remained broadly stable in both Ukraine and the European Union during the period. Nevertheless, the absence of significant price growth, particularly in the EU since Q4 2025, continued to contribute to a challenging operating environment, placing greater emphasis on operational excellence, efficiency improvements, and value-added product offerings.

The Group continues to closely monitor developments related to the War in Ukraine and wider geopolitical dynamics that may affect its business and markets. Drawing on the experience gained since 2022, the Company has further strengthened its resilience through robust risk management practices, operational flexibility, diversified logistics solutions, and proactive procurement strategies. These measures have enabled the Group to maintain business continuity and operational efficiency despite ongoing disruptions. While uncertainty remains elevated, MHP continues to demonstrate resilience and adaptability, pursuing its strategic growth objectives, expanding its presence in international markets, particularly in Europe, and reinforcing its commitment to food security and the delivery of high-quality protein products.

GLOBAL EXPANSION

On 30 May 2026, MHP announced the acquisition of a controlling stake in Greek poultry producer Th. Nitsiakos AVEE, which represents another important milestone in MHP's international expansion strategy, strengthening the resilience of the Group as a whole and enabling MHP's business in Ukraine to continue operating and developing.

The transaction further strengthens the Group's presence in Southern Europe, adding a leading poultry producer in Greece to its growing international portfolio and reinforcing MHP's position as an international food company. The investment is consistent with MHP's strategy of partnering with established local businesses, leveraging operational expertise and market access to support sustainable growth and create long-term value across international markets.
