Auditor’s limited assurance report on Epiroc AB´s sustainability statement

To the General Meeting of the shareholders Epiroc AB, corporate identity number 556041-2149

Conclusion

We have conducted a limited assurance engagement of the sustainability statement prepared by Epiroc AB (the Company) for the financial year 2025. The sustainability statement is included on pages 79–158 of this document.
Based on our limited assurance engagement as described in the section Auditor’s Responsibility, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the sustainability statement is not, in all material respects, prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, which includes:

Whether the sustainability statement meets the requirements of ESRS
Whether the process carried out by the Company to identify reported sustainability information has been conducted as described in the sustainability statement; and
Compliance with the reporting requirements in Article 8 of the EU’s Green Taxonomy Regulation.

Basis for Conclusion

We have conducted the limited assurance engagement in accordance with FAR’s recommendation RevR 19 – Revisorns översiktliga granskning av den lagstadgade hållbarhetsrapporten. Our responsibility under this recommendation is described in more detail in the section Auditor’s Responsibility.

We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion.

Other Information than the sustainability statement

This document also contains other information than the sustainability statement, found on pages 1-78 and 159–239, excluding pages 228–234 and the topics included within the Incorporation by Reference table on page 83. The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for this other information.

Our conclusion on the sustainability statement does not cover this other information, and we do not express any conclusion with assurance regarding this other information.

In connection with our limited assurance engagement on the sustainability statement, our responsibility is to read the information identified above and consider whether the information is materially inconsistent with the sustainability statement. In this procedure we also take into account our knowledge otherwise obtained in the limited assurance engagement and assess whether the information otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If we based on the work performed concerning this information, conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Other matter

The information in the sustainability statement regarding the previous financial year has in some cases been subject to a review in the previous year and the limited assurance report in accordance with RevR6 was submitted on March 20, 2025. Other comparative figures in the sustainability report for the year 2025 have not been subject to review.

Responsibilities of the Board of directors and Managing Director

The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for the preparation of sustainability statement in accordance with Chapter 6, Sections 12–12f of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, and for such internal control as the Board of Directors and the Managing Director determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the sustainability statement that is free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion whether the sustainability statement is prepared in accordance with Chapter 6, Sections 12–12 f of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act based on our limited assurance engagement.

The limited assurance engagement has been conducted in accordance with FAR’s recommendation RevR 19 Revisorns översiktliga granskning av den lagstadgade hållbarhetsrapporten. This recommendation requires that we plan and perform our procedures to obtain limited assurance that the sustainability statement is prepared in accordance with these requirements.

The procedures in a limited assurance engagement vary in nature and timing from, and are less in extent than for, a reasonable assurance engagement. Consequently, the level of assurance obtained in a limited assurance engagement is substantially lower than the assurance that would have been obtained had a reasonable assurance engagement been performed. This means that it is not possible for us to obtain such assurance that we become aware of all significant matters that could have been identified if a reasonable assurance engagement had been performed.

Our firm applies ISQM 1 (International Standard on Quality Management), which requires the firm to design, implement, and manage a quality management system including guidelines or procedures regarding compliance with ethical requirements, standards of professional practice, and applicable laws and regulations

We are independent of Epiroc AB in accordance with professional ethics for accountants in in Sweden and have otherwise fulfilled our ethical responsibilities according to these requirements.

A limited assurance engagement involves performing procedures to obtain evidence to support the sustainability information. The auditor selects the procedures to be performed, including assessing the risks of material misstatements in the sustainability statement, whether due to fraud or error. In this risk assessment, the auditor considers the parts of the internal control that are relevant to how the Board of Directors and the Managing Director prepare the sustainability statement, in order to design procedures that are appropriate under the circumstances, but not for the purpose of providing a conclusion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. The review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for the preparation of the sustainability statement, performing analytical review, and conducting other limited review procedures.

The review procedures primarily include:

Our review procedures regarding the sustainability statement included, but were not limited to the following:

Through inquiries, obtaining a general understanding of the internal control environment, reporting processes, and information systems relevant to the preparation of the information in the sustainability statement;
Evaluating whether information identified as material through the process the Company has undertaken to identify the content of the sustainability statement is also included;
Evaluating whether the structure and presentation of the sustainability statements are consistent with the requirements of ESRS;
Conducting inquiries with relevant personnel and analytical review procedures regarding selected disclosures in the sustainability statements;
Performing substantive review procedures based on a sample of selected disclosures in the sustainability statements;
Obtain, through inquiries and analytical review procedures, support for the methods used for preparing material estimates and forward-looking information and on how these methods were applied;

Our review procedures regarding the process the company have undertaken to identify sustainability information to report included, but were not limited to the following:

Obtaining an understanding of the process by:
- Conducting inquiries to understand the sources of the information used by management (e.g., stakeholder dialogues, business plans, and strategy documents), and
- Reviewing the company’s internal documentation of its process; and
- Evaluating whether the information obtained from our procedures regarding the process implemented by the company aligns with the description of the process in 90-91 in the sustainability statement.

Our review procedures regarding the taxonomy disclosures included but was not limited to the following review procedures:

Obtaining an understanding of the process for identifying economic activities that are covered by and are consistent with the EU Green Taxonomy and the corresponding disclosures in the sustainability statement by:

- Conducting inquiries to understand the sources of the information used in the taxonomy disclosures;
Evaluating whether the presentation of the taxonomy disclosures is consistent with the requirements of the EU Taxonomy Regulation;
Performing substantive review procedures based on a sample of selected disclosures in the sustainability statement regarding the EU Green Taxonomy.

Inherent limitations

Actual outcomes are likely to differ as expected often do not occur as anticipated.
