payment for the CIR for the 2024 tax year of €5,640 thousand in June 2025. The additional CIR of €2,791 thousand recorded over the

Employee-related receivables
In connection with the vesting of AGAs granted to its employees in the U.S. (analogous to restricted stock units), the Group settles its
U.S. employee tax obligations on their behalf through a "sell-to-cover" mechanism. A portion of the vested shares is sold on behalf of
the employees to fund the withholding taxes, with employees receiving the remaining shares net of the amounts sold.
As of September 30, 2025, the Group had settled such U.S. employee tax obligations of €5,362 thousand in advance of receiving the
proceeds from the sale of the corresponding shares. The sell-to-cover transactions were completed in October 2025 and the related
receivable was settled.

Note 9) and other expenses from various suppliers amounting to €1,534 thousand.
