NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) Note 1. Business Description and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Business Description: Kimball Electronics, Inc. (also referred to herein as “Kimball Electronics,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a global, multifaceted manufacturing solutions provider. We provide electronics manufacturing services (“EMS”), including engineering and supply chain support, to customers in the automotive, medical, and industrial end markets. We deliver a package of value that begins with our core competency of producing durable electronics, and we further offer contract manufacturing services for non-electronic components, medical disposables, and precision molded plastics. Our design and manufacturing expertise coupled with robust processes and procedures help us ensure that we deliver the highest levels of quality, reliability, and service throughout the entire life cycle of our customers’ products. We deliver award-winning service across our highly integrated global footprint, which is enabled by our largely common operating system, procedures, and standardization. We are well recognized by customers and industry trade publications for our excellent quality, reliability, and innovative service. Basis of Presentation: The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements presented herein reflect the consolidated financial position as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, cash flows for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, and share owners’ equity for the three and six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. The financial data presented herein is unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the annual Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024 and related notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. As such, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Management believes the financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the financial statements for the interim periods. The results of operations for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results for any future interim period or for the entire fiscal year. Revenue Recognition: We recognize revenue in accordance with the standard issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments. Our revenue from contracts with customers is generated primarily from manufacturing services provided for the production of electronic assemblies, components, medical devices, medical disposables, precision molded plastics, and automation, test, and inspection equipment built to customer’s specifications. Our customer agreements are generally not for a definitive term but continue for the relevant product’s life cycle. Typically, our customer agreements do not commit the customer to purchase our services until a purchase order is provided, which is generally short term in nature. Customer purchase orders primarily have a single performance obligation. Generally, the prices stated in the customer purchase orders are agreed upon prices for the manufactured product and do not vary over the term of the order, and therefore, the majority of our contracts do not contain variable consideration. In limited circumstances, we may enter into a contract which contains minimum quantity thresholds to cover our capital costs, and we may offer our customer a rebate for specific volume thresholds or other incentives; in these cases, the rebates or incentives are accounted for as variable consideration. The majority of our revenue is recognized over time as manufacturing services are performed as we manufacture a product to customer specifications with no alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. The remaining revenue for manufacturing services is recognized when the customer obtains control of the product, typically either upon shipment or delivery of the product dependent on the terms of the contract, and the customer is able to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset. We generally recognize revenue over time using costs based input methods, in which judgment is required to evaluate assumptions including anticipated margins to estimate the corresponding amount of revenue to recognize. Costs used as a basis for estimating anticipated margins include material, direct and indirect labor, and appropriate applied overheads. Anticipated margins are determined based on historical or quoted customer pricing. Costs based input methods are considered a faithful depiction of our efforts and progress toward satisfying our performance obligations for manufacturing services and for which we believe we are entitled to payment for performance completed to date. The cumulative effect of revisions to estimates related to net contract revenues or costs are recorded in the period in which the revisions to estimates are identified and the amounts can be reasonably estimated. 8 We have elected to account for shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers as costs to fulfill our promise to transfer the associated services and products. Accordingly, we record customer payments of shipping and handling costs as a component of net sales and classify such costs as a component of cost of sales. We recognize sales net of applicable sales or value add taxes. Based on estimated product returns and price concessions, a reserve for returns and allowances is recorded at the time revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of net revenue. Direct incremental costs to obtain and fulfill a contract are capitalized as a contract asset only if they are material, expected to be recovered, and are not accounted for in accordance with other guidance. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense in the period incurred. Trade Accounts Receivable: The Company’s trade accounts receivable are recorded per the terms of the agreement or sale, and accrued interest is recognized when earned. Our policy for estimating the allowance for credit losses on trade accounts receivable includes analysis of such items as aging, credit worthiness, payment history, and historical bad debt experience. Management uses these specific analyses in conjunction with an evaluation of the general economic and market conditions to estimate expected credit losses. Management believes that historical loss information generally provides a basis for its assessment of expected credit losses. Trade accounts receivable are written off after exhaustive collection efforts occur and the receivable is deemed uncollectible. Adjustments to the allowance for credit losses are recorded in Selling and Administrative Expenses on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. In the ordinary course of business, customers periodically negotiate extended payment terms on trade accounts receivable. Customary terms require payment within 30 to 45 days, with any terms beyond 45 days being considered extended payment terms. We participate in our customers’ supply chain financing arrangements for certain of our accounts receivables in order to extend terms for the customer without negatively impacting our cash flow. These arrangements in all cases do not contain recourse provisions which would obligate us in the event of our customers’ failure to pay. Receivables are considered sold when they are transferred beyond the reach of Kimball Electronics and its creditors, the purchaser has the right to pledge or exchange the receivables, and we have surrendered control over the transferred receivables. In the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we sold, without recourse, $ 169.0 million and $ 198.9 million of accounts receivable, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, factoring fees were $ 0.5 million and $ 0.8 million, and $ 1.1 million and $ 1.7 million during the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Factoring fees are recorded in Non-operating income (expense), net on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2024. Prior to fiscal year 2025, factoring fees were recorded in Selling and Administrative Expenses. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, changes to the expected timing of payments from and risk of default for a customer resulted in the recording of an allowance for credit losses of $ 2.0 million in Selling and Administrative Expenses on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Although the customer is not in bankruptcy and we will continue to pursue full recovery, an allowance was deemed necessary in consideration of the expected timing of payments and risk of default. The amount expected to be collected after twelve months is included in Other Assets, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. At December 31, 2024, the noncurrent receivable associated with this customer in Other Assets, net of allowance for expected credit losses, totaled $ 2.7 million. The current portion of receivables from this customer is $ 2.6 million at December 31, 2024. Non-operating Income (Expense), net: Non-operating income (expense), net includes the impact of such items as foreign currency rate movements and related derivative gain or loss, fair value adjustments on supplemental employee retirement plan (“SERP”) investments, government subsidies, factoring fees, bank charges, and other miscellaneous non-operating income and expense items that are not directly related to operations. Prior to fiscal year 2025, factoring fees were recorded in Selling and Administrative Expenses on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The gain (loss) on SERP investments is offset by a change in the SERP liability that is recognized in Selling and Administrative Expenses. 9 Components of Non-operating income (expense), net: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended December 31 December 31 (Amounts in Thousands) 2024 2023 2024 2023 Foreign currency/derivative gain (loss) $ 243 $ 346 $ ( 791 ) $ ( 328 ) Gain (loss) on SERP investments ( 69 ) 484 276 307 Factoring fees ( 517 ) — ( 1,053 ) — Credit facilities and bank fees ( 267 ) ( 182 ) ( 530 ) ( 383 ) Other ( 158 ) 54 ( 331 ) ( 25 ) Non-operating income (expense), net $ ( 768 ) $ 702 $ ( 2,429 ) $ ( 429 ) Income Taxes: In determining the quarterly provision for income taxes, we use an estimated annual effective tax rate which is based on expected annual income, statutory tax rates, and available tax planning opportunities in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. Unusual or infrequently occurring items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities, recorded in Other Assets, net and Other long-term liabilities, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. These assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. We evaluate the recoverability of deferred tax assets each quarter by assessing the likelihood of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize our deferred tax assets. If recovery is not likely, we provide a valuation allowance based on our best estimate of future taxable income in the various taxing jurisdictions and the amount of deferred taxes ultimately realizable. Future events could change management’s assessment. We operate within multiple taxing jurisdictions and are subject to tax audits in these jurisdictions. These audits can involve complex uncertain tax positions, which may require an extended period of time to resolve. A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. We maintain a liability for uncertain income tax and other tax positions, including accrued interest and penalties on those positions. As tax positions are effectively settled, the tax liability is adjusted accordingly. We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in Provision for Income Taxes on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Reform”) was enacted into law on December 22, 2017, making broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, for which complete guidance may have not yet been issued. Tax Reform, in addition to other changes, required a one-time transition tax on certain unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries that is payable over an eight-year period. As of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, the remaining provision recorded for the one-time deemed repatriation tax was $ 3.3 million and $ 5.9 million, respectively, payable through fiscal year 2026. As of December 31, 2024, the remaining deemed repatriation tax is short term and is recorded in Accrued expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. With the expected capital gains generated from the sale of the Tampa property, a portion of our deferred tax asset allowances from past capital losses are now expected to be realized, and in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, we reversed $ 2.4 million of these allowances, reducing our income tax expense. New Accounting Standards: Not Yet Adopted: In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board FASB issued guidance on Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, requiring more disclosure about the types of expenses presented in our expense captions. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and for interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, and the guidance can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements. In November 2023, the FASB issued guidance on Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, requiring additional, more detailed information about a reportable segment. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements. 10 In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance on Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, and the guidance is to be adopted prospectively with the option to adopt retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements. Note 2. Revenue from Contracts with Customers Our revenue from contracts with customers is generated primarily from manufacturing services provided for the production of electronic assemblies, electronic and non-electronic components, medical devices, medical disposables, and precision molded plastics in automotive, medical, and industrial applications, to the specifications and designs of our customers. The following table disaggregates our revenue by end market vertical for the three and six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. Three Months Ended Six Months Ended December 31 December 31 (Amounts in Millions) 2024 2023 2024 2023 Vertical Markets: Automotive $ 192.8 $ 200.2 $ 381.1 $ 412.7 Medical 84.0 108.1 173.8 210.5 Industrial 80.6 112.9 176.7 236.1 Total net sales $ 357.4 $ 421.2 $ 731.6 $ 859.3 For the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, approximately 99 % and 95 % of our net sales were recognized over time as manufacturing services were performed under a customer contract on a product with no alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. For the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, approximately 98 % and 96 % of our net sales were recognized over time. The remaining sales revenues were recognized at a point in time when the customer obtained control of the products. The timing differences of revenue recognition, billings to our customers, and cash collections from our customers result in billed accounts receivable and unbilled accounts receivable. Contract assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets relate to unbilled accounts receivable and occur when revenue is recognized over time as manufacturing services are provided and the billing to the customer has not yet occurred as of the balance sheet date, which are generally transferred to receivables in the next fiscal quarter due to the short-term nature of the manufacturing cycle. Contract assets were $ 82.0 million and $ 76.3 million as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively. The Company may receive payments from customers in advance of the satisfaction of performance obligations primarily for material price variances, inventory purchases, tooling, or other miscellaneous services or costs. These payments are recognized as contract liabilities until the performance obligations are completed and are included in Advances from customers, if inventory related, and Accrued expenses, if not inventory related, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets , which amounted to $ 50.8 million and $ 43.1 million as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively. Our performance obligations are short term in nature and therefore our contract liabilities are all expected to be settled within twelve months. We also have deposits associated with inventory purchases classified as long term. See Note 5 - Inventories of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion. Note 3. Sale of GES Following approval by our Board of Directors, on July 31, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement and closed on the sale of 100% of the equity interests in GES to Averna Test Systems, Inc., resulting in cash proceeds after costs to sell of $ 18.5 million, which is subject to additional purchase price adjustments. The pre-tax gain recognized on the sale in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025 was $ 1.3 million. In fiscal year 2024, following the Company’s decision to divest of GES, we classified the disposal group as held for sale and recognized $ 22.9 million in pre-tax impairment charges. 11 The following table summarizes net sales and income (loss) before taxes on income for the disposal group: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended December 31 December 31 (Amounts in Thousands) 2024 2023 2024 2023 Net Sales $ — $ 12,513 $ 2,075 $ 22,798 Income (Loss) Before Taxes on Income (1) $ — $ 1,146 $ 985 $ 551 (1) Includes gain on sale of $ 1.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024. Each period also includes allocated corporate overhead expenses. Note 4. Restructuring Activities In the three and six months ended December 31, 2024, we continued our restructuring efforts to align our cost structure with reduced end market demand levels, including resizing our workforce and taking specific cost actions, and recorded restructuring expense of $ 1.7 million and $ 4.0 million, respectively, which were primarily employee-related costs. The cumulative amount incurred since inception of these efforts beginning in fiscal year 2024 through December 31, 2024 was $ 6.4 million. We expect to continue executing these previously announced restructuring efforts over the remainder of the fiscal year and estimate between $ 0.5 million and $ 1.0 million of additional pre-tax restructuring charges. Additionally, on November 4, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has approved a plan to cease operations at our Tampa facility (“Tampa Closure Plan”), expected to be substantially completed by the end of the fiscal year. The decision was made to leverage capacity within our global footprint and streamlining the operating structure. We expect to incur approximately $ 6.5 million to $ 8.5 million in total exit costs, including most significantly $ 4.0 million to $ 5.0 million in employee termination benefits and $ 2.5 million to $ 3.5 million in logistical costs to transfer and validate programs at our other facilities. We expect these costs to be predominantly cash expenditures, and a majority are anticipated to be incurred over the remainder of fiscal year 2025. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded restructuring expense of $ 3.0 million for the Tampa Closure Plan. Accrued restructuring is recorded in Accrued expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The changes in the Company’s accrued restructuring costs under the Tampa Closure Plan were as follows: (Amounts in Thousands) Severance and Termination Benefits Other Exit Costs Total Balance at June 30, 2024 $ — $ — $ — Restructuring charges 2,726 264 2,990 Payments ( 93 ) ( 264 ) ( 357 ) Non-cash activity — — — Balance at December 31, 2024 $ 2,633 $ — $ 2,633 Once Tampa’s operations have ceased, we expect to sell the building and land, with the proceeds from the sale anticipated to exceed the exit costs. Note 5. Inventories Inventories were valued using the lower of first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) cost and net realizable value. Inventory components were as follows: (Amounts in Thousands) December 31, 2024 June 30, 2024 Finished products $ 222 $ 141 Work-in-process — — Raw materials 306,020 337,975 Total inventory $ 306,242 $ 338,116 Additionally, as of December 31 and June 30, 2024, we have raw materials inventory totaling $ 44.3 million and $ 42.8 million, respectively, classified as long-term included in Other Assets, net in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. A majority of this inventory is associated with a customer who is remediating a recall and we do not expect the inventory to be consumed 12 within the next twelve months. As of December 31 and June 30, 2024, we have received deposits from this customer for this long-term inventory totaling $ 30.7 million and $ 38.7 million, respectively, which is included in Other long-term liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The remaining inventory classified as long term is primarily related to other excess raw materials inventory we do not expect to consume or sell within twelve months. For a majority of these, we have arrangements with our customers to pay us carrying costs. Note 6. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) During the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the changes in the balances of each component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), net of tax, were as follows: Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (Amounts in Thousands) Foreign Currency Translation Adjustments Derivative Gain (Loss) Post Employment Benefits Net Actuarial Gain (Loss) Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) Balance at June 30, 2024 $ ( 14,260 ) $ ( 2,395 ) $ ( 1,152 ) $ ( 17,807 ) Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications ( 5,139 ) ( 1,883 ) 305 ( 6,717 ) Reclassification to (earnings) loss — 1,044 97 1,141 Net current-period other comprehensive income (loss) ( 5,139 ) ( 839 ) 402 ( 5,576 ) Balance at December 31, 2024 $ ( 19,399 ) $ ( 3,234 ) $ ( 750 ) $ ( 23,383 ) Balance at June 30, 2023 $ ( 11,832 ) $ 1,368 $ ( 582 ) $ ( 11,046 ) Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications 2,254 3,089 ( 429 ) 4,914 Reclassification to (earnings) loss — ( 3,497 ) ( 12 ) ( 3,509 ) Net current-period other comprehensive income (loss) 2,254 ( 408 ) ( 441 ) 1,405 Balance at December 31, 2023 $ ( 9,578 ) $ 960 $ ( 1,023 ) $ ( 9,641 ) The following reclassifications were made from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income: Reclassifications from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) Three Months Ended Six Months Ended Affected Line Item in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income December 31 December 31 (Amounts in Thousands) 2024 2023 2024 2023 Derivative gain (loss) (1) $ ( 1,034 ) $ 1,625 $ ( 1,418 ) $ 4,492 Cost of Sales 268 ( 341 ) 374 ( 995 ) Benefit (Provision) for Income Taxes $ ( 766 ) $ 1,284 $ ( 1,044 ) $ 3,497 Net of Tax Postemployment Benefits: Amortization of actuarial gain (2) ( 74 ) 10 ( 127 ) 16 Non-operating income (expense), net 17 ( 3 ) 30 ( 4 ) Benefit (Provision) for Income Taxes $ ( 57 ) $ 7 $ ( 97 ) $ 12 Net of Tax Total reclassifications for the period $ ( 823 ) $ 1,291 $ ( 1,141 ) $ 3,509 Net of Tax Amounts in parentheses indicate reductions to income.

(2) See Note 11 - Employee Benefit Plans of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on postemployment benefit plans. 13 Note 7. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities The Company typically provides only assurance-type warranties for a limited time period, which cover workmanship and assures the product complies with specifications provided by or agreed upon with the customer. We maintain a provision for limited warranty repair or replacement of products manufactured and sold, which has been established in specific manufacturing contract agreements. We estimate product warranty liability at the time of sale based on historical repair or replacement cost trends in conjunction with the length of the warranty offered. Management refines the warranty liability regularly based on changes in historical cost trends and in certain cases where specific warranty issues become known. This product warranty liability and expense were immaterial during the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. Note 8. Credit Facilities Credit facilities consisted of the following: Available Borrowing Capacity at Borrowings Outstanding at Borrowings Outstanding at (Amounts in Millions, in U.S. Dollar Equivalents) December 31, 2024 December 31, 2024 June 30, 2024 Primary credit facility, revolving (1) $ 194.6 $ 105.0 $ 285.5 Primary credit facility, term (1) — 100.0 — Secondary credit facility (2) — — — Thailand overdraft credit facility (3) 10.1 — — China revolving credit facility (3) 6.9 — — Netherlands revolving credit facility (3) 9.6 — 9.3 Poland revolving credit facility (3) 5.2 — — Total credit facilities $ 226.4 $ 205.0 $ 294.8 Unamortized deferred debt financing fees $ ( 0.5 ) $ — Total long-term debt $ 204.5 $ 294.8 Less: current portion $ ( 24.9 ) $ ( 59.8 ) Long-term debt under credit facilities, less current portion (4) $ 179.6 $ 235.0 (1) The Company maintained a U.S. primary credit facility which was scheduled to mature on May 4, 2027 that provided for $300 million in borrowings, and the Company had utilized this facility for revolving borrowings. On December 20, 2024, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “restated primary credit facility”) among the Company, the lenders party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N. A., as Administrative Agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as Documentation Agent. The restated primary credit facility adds a term loan borrowing facility that provides for term loan borrowings (“term borrowings”) of $ 100 million repayable in scheduled quarterly installments, scheduled to mature December 20, 2029. The terms for the revolving borrowings remain largely unchanged with a maturity date of May 4, 2027 and continue to provide for $ 300 million in borrowings, with an option to increase the amount available for borrowing to $ 450 million upon request, subject to the consent of each lender participating in such increase. This facility is maintained for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Company, and pursuant to the restated primary credit facility, the Company is permitted to use the proceeds to refinance existing indebtedness. A commitment fee is payable on the unused portion of the credit facility at a rate that ranges from 10.0 to 25.0 basis points per annum as determined by the Company’s ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to adjusted consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the restated primary credit facility. Types of borrowings available on the restated primary credit facility include term loans, revolving loans, multi-currency term loans, and swingline loans. At December 31, 2024, all outstanding borrowings under the primary credit facility were Term Benchmark borrowings denominated in U.S. dollars. The interest rate on borrowings is dependent on the class, type and currencies of borrowings and will be one of the following options: • any Term Benchmark borrowing denominated in U.S. Dollars will utilize the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for one, three, or six-month tenors as elected, which is a rate per annum equal to the secured overnight financing rate for such business day published by the SOFR Administrator, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, on the immediately succeeding business day, plus ten hundredths percent ( 0.10 %), plus the Revolving Commitment Term Benchmark spread or Term Loan Benchmark spread which can range from 100.0 to 175.0 basis points based on the Company’s ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to adjusted consolidated EBITDA; 14 • any Term Benchmark borrowing denominated in Euros will utilize the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”) in effect two target days prior to the advance (adjusted upwards to reflect bank reserve costs) for such interest period as defined in the agreement, plus the Revolving Commitment Term Benchmark spread or Term Loan Term Benchmark spread which can range from 100.0 to 175.0 basis points based on the Company’s ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to adjusted consolidated EBITDA; or • the Alternate Base Rate (“ABR”), which is defined as the highest of the fluctuating rate per annum equal to the higher of: a. Prime Rate in the U.S. last quoted by the Wall Street Journal, and if this is ceased to be quoted, the highest bank prime loan rate or similar loan rate quoted by the Federal Reserve Board; b. 1/2 of 1% per annum above the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (NYFRB) Rate (as defined under the restated primary credit facility); or c. 1 % per annum above the Adjusted SOFR Rate (as defined under the restated primary credit facility); plus the Revolving Commitment ABR spread which can range from 0.0 to 75.0 basis points based on the Company’s ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to adjusted consolidated EBITDA. Under the restated primary credit facility, the ABR Spread and Benchmark Spread for term borrowings are the same as for revolving borrowings. The Company’s financial covenants under the amended primary credit facility require: • a ratio of consolidated total indebtedness minus unencumbered U.S. cash on hand in the United States in excess of $ 15 million to adjusted consolidated EBITDA, determined as of the end of each of its fiscal quarters for the then most recently ended four fiscal quarters, to not be greater than 3.0 to 1.0, provided, however, that for each fiscal quarter end during the four quarter period following a material permitted acquisition, as defined in the Credit Agreement, the Company will not permit this financial covenant to be greater than 3.5 to 1.0 for each such fiscal quarter end, and, • an interest coverage ratio, defined as that ratio of consolidated EBITDA for such period to cash interest expense for such period, for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters, to not be less than 3.5 to 1.0. The Company had $ 0.4 million in letters of credit contingently committed against the primary credit facility at both December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024. (2) Concurrently on December 20, 2024 with its entry into the restated primary credit facility, the Company terminated its 364-day multi-currency revolving credit facility agreement (the “secondary credit facility”), which was entered into on January 5, 2024 and originally scheduled to mature on January 3, 2025. The secondary credit facility allowed for borrowings up to $ 100.0 million, and the Company had no borrowings on the secondary credit facility at June 30, 2024. (3) The Company also maintains foreign credit facilities for working capital and general corporate purposes at specific foreign locations rather than utilizing funding from intercompany sources. These foreign credit facilities can be canceled at any time by either the bank or us and generally include renewal clauses. Interest on borrowing under these facilities is charged at a rate as defined under the respective foreign credit facility. As a result of the GES divestiture that occurred on July 31, 2024, the Company no longer has the Vietnam credit facility, which allowed for borrowings up to $ 5.0 million. (4) The amount of long-term debt under credit facilities, less current maturities, reflects the revolving borrowings on the primary credit facility that the Company intends, and has the ability, to refinance for a period longer than twelve months in addition to the long-term portion of the term borrowings. The revolving borrowings on the primary credit facility matures on May 4, 2027. 15 As of December 31, 2024, the contractual maturities of the term borrowings on the primary credit facility were as follows: (Amounts in Millions) Contractual Maturities Fiscal year: Remaining 2025 $ 2.50 2026 5.00 2027 6.25 2028 7.50 2029 8.75 Thereafter 70.00 Total $ 100.00 The weighted-average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the credit facilities at December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024 were 6.4 % and 6.8 %, respectively. Note 9. Fair Value The Company categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows: • Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. • Level 2: Observable inputs other than those included in level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets. • Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. There were no changes in the inputs or valuation techniques used to measure fair values during the six months ended December 31, 2024. For more information on inputs and fair valuation techniques used, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2024. Recurring Fair Value Measurements: As of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, the fair values of financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using the market approach are categorized as follows: December 31, 2024 (Amounts in Thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Total Assets Derivatives: foreign exchange contracts $ — $ 1,803 $ 1,803 Trading securities: mutual funds held in nonqualified SERP 5,547 — 5,547 Total assets at fair value $ 5,547 $ 1,803 $ 7,350 Liabilities Derivatives: foreign exchange contracts $ — $ 3,609 $ 3,609 Total liabilities at fair value $ — $ 3,609 $ 3,609 June 30, 2024 (Amounts in Thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Total Assets Derivatives: foreign exchange contracts $ — $ 1,420 $ 1,420 Trading securities: mutual funds held in nonqualified SERP 5,445 — 5,445 Total assets at fair value $ 5,445 $ 1,420 $ 6,865 Liabilities Derivatives: foreign exchange contracts $ — $ 2,485 $ 2,485 Total liabilities at fair value $ — $ 2,485 $ 2,485 16 We had no level 3 assets or liabilities at December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, or any activity in Level 3 assets or liabilities during the six months ended December 31, 2024. The nonqualified supplemental employee retirement plan (“SERP”) assets consist primarily of equity funds, balanced funds, bond funds, and a money market fund. The SERP investment assets are offset by a SERP liability which represents the Company’s obligation to distribute SERP funds to participants. See Note 11 - Employee Benefit Plans of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the SERP. Financial Instruments Not Carried At Fair Value: Financial instruments that are not reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value that have carrying amounts which approximate fair value include notes receivable and borrowings under credit facilities. There were no changes to the inputs and valuation techniques used to assess the fair value of these financial instruments during the six months ended December 31, 2024. For more information on inputs and fair valuation techniques used, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2024. The carrying values of our cash deposit accounts, trade accounts receivable, and trade accounts payable approximate fair value due to the relatively short maturity and immaterial non-performance risk. Note 10. Derivative Instruments Foreign Exchange Contracts: We operate internationally and are therefore exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the normal course of business. Our primary means of managing this exposure is to utilize natural hedges, such as aligning currencies used in the supply chain with the sale currency. To the extent natural hedging techniques do not fully offset currency risk, we use derivative instruments with the objective of reducing the residual exposure to certain foreign currency rate movements. Factors considered in the decision to hedge an underlying market exposure include the materiality of the risk, the volatility of the market, the duration of the hedge, the degree to which the underlying exposure is committed to, and the availability, effectiveness, and cost of derivative instruments. Derivative instruments are only utilized for risk management purposes and are not used for speculative or trading purposes. We use forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges to protect against foreign currency exchange rate risks inherent in forecasted transactions denominated in a foreign currency. Non-designated foreign exchange contracts are also used to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risks related to intercompany balances and other balance sheet positions denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies. As of December 31, 2024, we had outstanding foreign exchange contracts to hedge currencies against the U.S. dollar in the aggregate notional amount of $ 18.3 million and to hedge currencies against the Euro in the aggregate notional amount of 38.8 million Euro. The notional amounts are indicators of the volume of derivative activities but may not be indicators of the potential gain or loss on the derivatives. In limited cases due to unexpected changes in forecasted transactions, cash flow hedges may cease to meet the criteria to be designated as cash flow hedges. Depending on the type of exposure hedged, we may either purchase a derivative contract in the opposite position of the undesignated hedge or may retain the hedge until it matures if the hedge continues to provide an adequate offset in earnings against the currency revaluation impact of foreign currency denominated liabilities. The fair value of outstanding derivative instruments is recognized on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a derivative asset or liability and presented with Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Accrued expenses, respectively. When derivatives are settled with the counterparty, the derivative asset or liability is relieved and cash flow is impacted for the net settlement. For derivative instruments that meet the criteria of hedging instruments under FASB guidance, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is initially recorded net of related tax effect in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), a component of Share Owners’ Equity, and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period or periods during which the hedged transaction is recognized in earnings. The gain or loss associated with derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments or that cease to meet the criteria for hedging under FASB guidance is reported immediately in Non-operating income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Based on fair values as of December 31, 2024, we estimate that approximately $ 2.8 million of pre-tax derivative loss deferred in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss will be reclassified into earnings, along with the earnings effects of related forecasted transactions, within the next 12 months. Gains on foreign exchange contracts are generally offset by losses in operating income in the income statement when the underlying hedged transaction is recognized in earnings. Because gains or losses on foreign exchange contracts fluctuate partially based on currency spot rates, the future effect on earnings of the cash flow hedges alone is not determinable, but in conjunction with the underlying hedged transactions, the result is expected to be a decline in currency risk. The maximum length of time we had hedged our exposure to the variability in future cash flows was 12 months as of both December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024. 17 See Note 9 - Fair Value of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the fair value of derivative assets and liabilities and Note 6 - Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the changes in deferred derivative gains and losses. Information on the location and amounts of derivative fair values in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and derivative gains and losses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income are presented below.

Employee Benefit Plans Defined Contribution Retirement Plan: The Company maintains a trusteed defined contribution retirement plan which is in effect for substantially all domestic employees meeting the eligibility requirements. The Company matches 50% of eligible employee contributions up to 6%. The Company also provides a discretionary contribution determined annually by the Talent, Culture, and Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. Total expense related to employer contributions to the domestic retirement plans was $ 1.0 million and $ 3.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company also maintains a supplemental employee retirement plan (“SERP”) for executives and other key employees which enables them to defer cash compensation on a pre-tax basis and restore amounts that would otherwise be payable under our tax-qualified retirement plans if the IRS did not have limits on includable compensation and maximum benefits. The SERP is structured as a rabbi trust, and therefore, assets in the SERP portfolio are subject to creditor claims in the event of bankruptcy. We recognize SERP investment assets on the balance sheet at current fair value. A SERP liability of the same amount is recorded on the balance sheet representing an obligation to distribute SERP funds to participants. As of December 31, 2024, both total investments and obligations under SERP were $ 5.6 million, of which $ 2.0 million were short term and $ 3.6 million were long term. As of June 30, 2024, both total investments and obligations under SERP were $ 5.4 million, of which $ 2.0 million were short term and $ 3.4 million were long term. The SERP investment assets are classified as trading, and accordingly, realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized in the Other Income (Expense) category on 18 our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Adjustments made to revalue the SERP liability are also recognized in income as selling and administrative expenses and offset valuation adjustments on SERP investment assets. The change in net unrealized holding gains for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was less than $ 0.1 million and $ 0.1 million, respectively. Defined Benefit Postemployment Plan: The Company established and maintains severance plans for all domestic employees and other postemployment plans for certain foreign subsidiaries. There are no statutory requirements for us to contribute to the plans, nor do employees contribute to the plans. The plans hold no assets. Benefits are paid using available cash on hand when eligible employees meet plan qualifications for payment. As of December 31, 2024, total obligations under these plans were $ 7.0 million of which $ 6.2 million were long term and $ 0.8 million were short term. As of June 30, 2024, total obligations under these plans were $ 7.0 million of which $ 6.2 million were long term and $ 0.8 million were short term. Net periodic benefit costs were not material for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. Note 12. Stock Compensation Plans A stock compensation plan was created and adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on September 20, 2023 and approved by our Share Owners at our 2023 Annual Meeting on November 17, 2023. The 2023 Plan allows for the issuance of up to 2.0 million shares and replaced our former 2014 plan. The shares under the 2023 Plan may be granted in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted awards, performance share awards, cash awards, and other equity awards. The Plan is a ten-year plan that terminates automatically on November 17, 2033. No award shall be granted pursuant to the Plan after such date, but awards theretofore granted may extend beyond that date. On October 20, 2016, the Board approved a nonqualified deferred stock compensation plan, the Kimball Electronics, Inc. Non-Employee Directors Stock Compensation Deferral Plan (the “Deferral Plan”), which allows Non-Employee Directors to elect to defer all, or a portion of, their retainer fees in stock until retirement or termination from the Board or death. The Deferral Plan allows for issuance of up to 1.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock. For more information on the 2023 Plan and the Deferral Plan, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2024. During the first six months of fiscal year 2025, the following stock compensation was granted under the 2023 Plan and the Deferral Plan. Stock Compensation Granted Quarter Granted Shares/Units Grant Date Fair Value (2) Long-Term Performance Shares (1) 1st Quarter 23,460 $ 18.49 Restricted Shares (3) 1st Quarter 152,917 $ 18.49 Long-Term Performance Shares (4) 2nd Quarter 207,344 $ 21.89 Unrestricted Shares (5) 2nd Quarter 26,192 $ 19.09 Deferred Share Units (6) 2nd Quarter 28,288 $ 19.09 (1) Long-term performance share awards were granted to key employees. These annual performance share awards were approved by the Talent, Culture, and Compensation Committee of the Board. These awards granted in fiscal year 2025 will cliff vest at the third anniversary of the award date in fiscal year 2028. For these key employee awards, a number of shares will be issued to each participant based upon a combination of the Company’s profitability based on its operating income over the performance period as defined in the Company’s operating business plans for the applicable fiscal years and the Company’s growth based on a comparison of its three-year compounded annual growth rate (“CAGR”) with the Electronics Manufacturing Services Industry’s three-year CAGR. The number of shares issued could be zero if minimum thresholds are not met up to a maximum of 125 % if results on both measures exceed targets under the formula. (2) The grant date fair value is the weighted average stock price based on the dates of the grants. (3) Restricted shares were granted to leadership team members and other key employees.
