COVID-19 IMPACT
Stadler full-year results 2020 | © Stadler | 11 March 2021 8

officials and customers which impacts final payments
– All plants currently operating at largely normal levels
Impact on
Operations
– Demand remaining strong, no order cancelations and no
large tenders lost
– Ongoing tenders largely on track but some final decisions
postponed due to Covid-19 and appeals by competitors
– New tenders being launched
Market
environment
– Health and safety measures initiated immediately
– Adapting assembly sequences and working shift times with
employees partially working remotely
– Decentralised supply chain
Counter
measures
– Partial recovery of deferred revenues achieved in H2 2020
– Adverse effect on net working capital
– Service & Components impacted by lower mileage
– Significant order backlog and resilient end market

Revenues in the full-year only declined slightly
Corona-related supply chain disruptions and delays in homologation processes and final vehicle
takeovers by customers due to travel restrictions
Service & Components
Revenue growth below expectations as a result of lower frequencies in public rail transport and
hence less revenues from mileage of vehicles in service. Less sales of spare parts and repairs

Corona-related delays led to a decline in revenues in the first half. Profitability impacted by
lower volumes, supply chain disruptions and implementation of health and safety measures
Significant margin recovery in the second half of 2020 to H2 2019 levels
Adverse NOK/CHF impact of ~CHF 30m on EBIT from last remaining option call-off
Service & Components
− High-margin service business impacted by lower fixed cost absorption due to revenues below

IMPORTANT NOTICE
This presentation (the "Presentation") has been prepared by Stadler Rail AG ("Stadler" and together with its subsidiaries, "we", "us" or the "Group") and includes forward-looking
information and statements concerning the outlook for our business. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the factors that may
affect our future performance, including global economic conditions, and the economic conditions of the regions and markets in which the Group operates. These expectations,
estimates and projections are generally identifiable by statements containing words such as “expects,” “believes,” “estimates,” “targets,” “plans,” “outlook” or similar expressions.
There are numerous risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward- looking information
and statements made in this Presentation, which, in turn, could affect our ability to achieve our stated targets. The important factors that could cause such differences include:
changes in the markets the Group serves, including as a result of changes in the global demand for transportation and demographic changes; the Group's ability to successfully
develop, launch and market new products and services; the Group's ability to retain existing customers and/or secure new customers; the Group's ability to compete with existing
and new competitors; the Group's ability to maintain the high quality, reliability, performance and timely delivery of its products and services; the impact of fluctuations in foreign
exchange rates; and such other factors as may be discussed from time to time. Although we believe that our expectations reflected in any such forward-looking statement are
based upon reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that those expectations will be achieved.
