Executive Commentary

Enric Asunciรณn, CEO of Wallbox, said, โ€œWeโ€™ve kicked off 2025 with a solid first quarter, delivering revenue, Gross Margin, and Adjusted EBITDA in line or better than the guidance provided last quarter. Our growth with strategic partners and the creation of a healthy backlog for the upcoming quarter reinforce our confidence that weโ€™re building real momentum. At the same time, we believe the Adjusted EBITDA break-even point is getting closer, thanks to continued gains in operational efficiency and another quarter of cost reductions, all while maintaining revenue. Weโ€™re also executing on strategic priorities, including opening pre-orders for Quasar 2 and restructuring banking agreements.โ€

Mr. Asunciรณn continued, โ€œThe EV market delivered encouraging growth in the first quarter of 2025, a signal of renewed momentum for the industry. While we remain cautious in our outlook for the remainder of the year given ongoing economic uncertainty, our focus remains unchanged: to deliver best-in-class charging solutions that allow us to continue capturing growth from both existing and new customers, all while maintaining strict cost discipline. We are making meaningful progress across all these fronts. As Wallbox evolves into a more agile and efficient platform for growth, we are confident in our ability to unlock long-term value for our shareholders.โ€

Forward Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the โ€œSecurities Actโ€) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the โ€œExchange Actโ€). All statements contained in this press release other than statements of historical fact should be considered forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements regarding Wallboxโ€™s expected future operating results and financial position, long term profitability and cost optimization, industry and company growth, business strategy and plans and market opportunity, including in the California market. The words โ€œanticipate,โ€ โ€œbelieve,โ€ โ€œcan,โ€ โ€œcontinue,โ€ โ€œcould,โ€ โ€œestimate,โ€ โ€œexpect,โ€ โ€œfocus,โ€ โ€œforecast,โ€ โ€œintend,โ€ โ€œlikely,โ€ โ€œmay,โ€ โ€œmight,โ€ โ€œplan,โ€ โ€œpossible,โ€ โ€œpotential,โ€ โ€œpredict,โ€ โ€œproject,โ€ โ€œshould,โ€ โ€œโ€target,โ€ will,โ€ โ€œwouldโ€ and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, though not all forward-looking statements use these words or expressions. These statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: Wallboxโ€™s history of operating losses as an early stage company; the adoption and demand for electric vehicles including the success of alternative fuels, changes to rebates, tax credits and the impact of government incentives;political and economic uncertainty and macroeconomic factors, such as impacts from tariffs and trade barriers, consumer spending, inflation and foreign exchange rates; the accuracy of Wallboxโ€™s forecasts and projections including those regarding its market opportunity; competition; risks related to losses or disruptions in Wallboxโ€™s supply or manufacturing partners; impacts resulting from geopolitical conflicts; risks related to macro-economic conditions and inflation; Wallboxโ€™s reliance on the third-parties outside of its control; risks related to Wallboxโ€™s technology, intellectual property and infrastructure; executive orders and regulatory changes under the U.S. political administration and uncertainty therefrom, as well as the other important factors discussed under the caption โ€œRisk Factorsโ€ in Wallboxโ€™s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, as such factors may be updated from time to time in its other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the โ€œSECโ€), accessible on the SECโ€™s website at www.sec.gov and the Investors Relations section of Wallboxโ€™s website at investors.wallbox.com. Any such forward-looking statements represent managementโ€™s estimates as of the date of this press release. Any forward-looking statement that Wallbox makes in this press release speaks only as of the date of such statement. Except as required by law, Wallbox disclaims any obligation to update or revise, or to publicly announce any update or revision to, any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

Wallbox reports its financial information required in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (โ€œIFRSโ€). This release includes financial measures not based on IFRS, including Adjusted EBITDA and Gross Margin (the โ€œNon-IFRS Measureโ€). See the definitions set forth below for a further explanation of these terms.

Wallbox defines โ€œGross Marginโ€ as revenue less changes in inventory, raw materials and other consumables used divided by revenue.

Wallbox defines EBITDA as loss for the period before income tax credit, financial income, financial expenses, amortization and depreciation, change in fair value of derivative warrants and foreign exchange gains/(losses). We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA for the period further adjusted to take into account the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of our ongoing operating performance. These non-cash and other items include, but not are limited to: share based payment plan expenses, certain one-time expenses related to a reduction in workforce initiated in January 2023, certain non-cash expenses related to the ESPP plan launched in January 2023, any negative goodwill arising from business combinations and other items outside the scope of our ordinary activities.

Management uses these Non-IFRS Measures as measurements of operating performance because they assist management in comparing the Companyโ€™s operating performance on a consistent basis, as they remove the impact of items not directly resulting from the Companyโ€™s core operations; for planning purposes, including the preparation of managementโ€™s internal annual operating budget and financial projections; to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of our strategic initiatives; and to evaluate the Companyโ€™s capacity to fund capital expenditures and expand its business.

The Non-IFRS Measures may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies, because not all companies and analysts calculate these measures in the same manner. We present the Non-IFRS Measures because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of our performance, and we believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies. Management believes that investorsโ€™ understanding of our performance is enhanced by including the Non-IFRS Measures as a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations. By providing the Non-IFRS Measures, together with reconciliations to IFRS, we believe we are enhancing investorsโ€™ understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our strategic initiatives.

Items excluded from the Non-IFRS Measures are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. The Non-IFRS Measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative to, or a substitute for loss for the period, revenue or other financial statement data presented in our consolidated financial statements as indicators of financial performance. Some of the limitations are: such measures do not reflect revenue related to fulfillment, which is necessary to the operation of our business; such measures do not reflect our expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; such measures do not reflect changes in our working capital needs; such measures do not reflect our share based payments, income tax benefit/(expense) or the amounts necessary to pay our taxes; although depreciation and amortization are not included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and such measures do not reflect any costs for such replacements; and other companies may calculate such measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Due to these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business and are in addition to, not a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. In addition, the Non-IFRS Measures we use may differ from the non-IFRS financial measures used by other companies and are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, not all companies or analysts may calculate similarly titled measures in the same manner. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our IFRS results and using the Non-IFRS Measures only as supplemental measures.

Reconciliations of the forward-looking non-IFRS measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts and are not provided herein because of the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations and certain other items reflected in our reconciliation of historical non-IFRS measures, the amounts of which could be material.
