Orano - Annual Activity Report 2025 321 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 6 Consolidated financial statements – financial year ended December 31, 2025 NOTE 1 SIGNIFICANT EVENTS, ESTIMATES, JUDGMENTS AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES 1.1 Significant events of the period Orano signs an investment agreement with the Mongolian government to develop a world-class uranium deposit On January 17, 2025, Orano and the Mongolian government signed an investment agreement for the development and operation of the Zuuvch Ovoo uranium mine, located in south-eastern Mongolia, in the Dornogovi province. This agreement, ratified by the government after being submitted to the Mongolian Parliament, embodies 27 years of presence and partnership in Mongolia. Under the terms of the agreement, the mining project provides for the industrial exploitation of the major deposits of Zuuvch Ovoo and Dulaan Uul / Umnut – whose uranium resources are estimated at nearly 90,000 metric tons. The development of the project will take four years before production begins at the Zuuvch Ovoo mine, whose nominal capacity is estimated at around 2,500 metric tons of uranium per year. Following these transactions, Orano’s ownership of Badrakh increased from 66% to 90% (see Note 2). Acquisition of a stake by Sanofi in the medical business On February 27, 2025, Orano Med and Sanofi finalized the agreement signed in October 2024 to combine their expertise for the development of next-generation vectorized internal radiotherapies. On this date, Sanofi acquired a 15.6% stake in Orano Med Theranostics for an amount of 300 million euros. Future of Treatment and Recycling beyond 2040 On March 17, 2025, the French President chaired the 4th Nuclear Policy Council (CPN or Conseil de Politique Nucléaire in French). The CPN approved the action plan aimed at securing France’s longterm uranium supply.

Loan from the European Investment Bank (“EIB”) The European Investment Bank (EIB) and Orano signed a 400 million euro loan agreement intended to partly finance the investments in the extension project of the Georges Besse II uranium enrichment plant in Tricastin (Drôme / Vaucluse), France. This financing is part of the European strategy to reduce the European Union’s dependence on fossil fuel imports and accelerate the transition to low-carbon energy sources. Niger On September 23, 2025, the arbitral tribunal set up under the auspices of the International Centre for settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) issued one decision in favor of Orano in its dispute with the State of Niger over the Somaïr uranium mine. In its decision, the arbitration tribunal ordered the State of Niger not to sell, transfer or even facilitate the transfer to third parties the uranium produced by Somaïr that had been retained in violation of Orano’s rights, as requested by Orano (see Note 34).
