Purpose of this Supplement

The purpose of this Supplement is to:

• A. incorporate by reference in the Base Prospectus Diageo's condensed set of financial statements (on a consolidated basis and including the independent review report thereon and the notes thereto) set out at pages 25 to 44 of the interim results of Diageo for the six months ended 31 December 2024 and which include Diageo Finance plc and Diageo Capital B.V. as part of the consolidated group (the "2025 Interim Financial Statements");
• B. update the Base Prospectus to reflect updates to the section entitled "Risk Factors" on pages 17 to 36 of the Base Prospectus; and
• C. update the "Significant Change" statements.

A. Incorporation of the 2025 Interim Financial Statements

On 4 February 2025, Diageo published the 2025 Interim Financial Statements. A copy of the 2025 Interim Financial Statements has been filed with the Financial Conduct Authority and, by virtue of this Supplement, the 2025 Interim Financial Statements are incorporated in, and form part of, the Base Prospectus save that any statement contained in this Supplement or in any of the documents incorporated by reference in, and forming part of, the Base Prospectus shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for the purpose of the Base Prospectus to the extent that such a statement contained in any document subsequently incorporated by reference modifies or supersedes such statement.

Copies of the 2025 Interim Financial Statements may be obtained: (i) by a request in writing to the relevant Issuer at its registered office as set out at the end of the Base Prospectus and marked for the attention of Company Secretariat; or (ii) from the website of the Regulatory News Service operated by the London Stock Exchange at: www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/news/market-news/market-news-home.html

B. Risk Factors

The sentence "Any of these developments may have a material adverse effect on the Diageo group's financial performance" on page 18 is deleted and replaced with "For example, on 1 February 2025, the United States government announced the implementation of 25% tariffs on goods imported into the United States from Canada and Mexico. Separately, both the Prime Minister of Canada and the President of Mexico have stated that they would impose retaliatory tariffs on US products. On 3 February 2025 these tariffs were delayed for 30 days. These tariffs, if implemented and sustained for an extended period of time, and any additional tariffs in the United States or retaliatory tariffs imposed by other governments, may have a material adverse effect on the Diageo group's financial performance."

C. Significant Change

There has been no significant change in the financial position or the financial performance of Diageo, Diageo Finance plc, Diageo Capital B.V. and their respective subsidiaries since 31 December 2024.
