DISCLAIMER

This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” which are prospective in nature and are not based on historical facts, but rather on current expectations and projections about future events. Such statements are therefore subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from the future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Often, but not always, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as “plans”, “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “is subject to”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, or “believes”, or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “should”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future. There are a number of factors that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including business, economic and regulatory changes as well as the risks set out in the Company’s annual report and accounts, which can be found on its website (www.theaaplc.com/investors). Such forward-looking statements should therefore be construed in the light of such factors. Neither the Company, nor any of its associates or directors, officers or advisers, provides any representation, assurance or guarantee that the events expressed or implied in any forward- looking statements in this announcement will actually occur. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking

  • statements. Other than in accordance with its legal or regulatory obligations (including under the Market Abuse Regulation, the Listing Rules

and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules), the Company is not under any obligation to update, revise or correct any forward- looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. No statement in this presentation should be construed as a profit forecast or relied upon as a guide to future performance.

COVID-19 – DECISIVE ACTION TO DEMONSTRATE RESILIENCE

11

Measures in place to flex costs and preserve cash including deferral and reduction of a range

  • f operating costs
  • Dividend suspended
  • Pay and hiring freezes
  • Suspension of normal bonus scheme
  • Board have agreed to take a 15% reduction to their base salary for 3 months
  • Further tightening of cost controls across the business

We remain comfortably within our financial covenants and supported by predictable cash flow and liquidity Given the resilient business model combined with the benefits of the actions we have taken and are taking, we expect current year performance to be robust and only slightly below FY20

COVID-19 – CURRENT BUSINESS STATUS CHECK

Roadside

Good service on the road and in call centres Breakdowns volume dropped, but picked up recently – low garaging, PFU and ancillary offset drop in workload Expect B2C membership to be down H1 and then some recovery Driving School has seen reduced trading

Insurance

Good service in call centres New Business marginally down Renewal retention rates holding up well Reduced claims offsets lower Accident Management income Demonstrated good resilience Softness in Financial Services

Current Priorities

Ongoing mitigation of commercial impacts Planning for phased restrictions ease Broad-based marketing initiatives for post lockdown, capturing COVID operational learnings Re-prioritising efficiency and cost to serve improvement initiatives
