2025 kicked-off with the completion of the acquisition of Claranet Portugal, a decisive step in establishing NOS as the preferred partner for the digital transformation of businesses in Portugal. This transaction strengthens our value proposition in the corporate segment, leveraging our technological assets and technical expertise, and expanding our presence in the ICT market.
NOS was also recognised for its commitment to innovation, one of the strategic pillars of our activity, leading the number of Portuguese patent applications submitted in Europe for the second consecutive year. A total of 22 applications were submitted, focusing on critical areas such as voice-based Artificial Intelligence and accessibility, cybersecurity, the metaverse and blockchain. This performance consolidates our role as the Portuguese company that invests the most in R&D and reinforces our commitment to the national innovation ecosystem.
In the technology field, we maintain leadership in 5G with the launch of 5G+ (standalone) services and the execution of the first VoNR (Voice over New Radio) call in Portugal – a milestone that paves the way for even more advanced connectivity experiences, with greater clarity, lower latency and more sustainable. We are also demonstrating that technology can and should serve people. In partnership with Loulé City Council, we launched a social project using our 5G network to monitor elderly people living in isolation, promoting inclusion and social cohesion through innovation.
We continued to grow in the telecommunications segment, in a demanding competitive environment, supported by our technological superiority and the excellence of the experience we offer our customers, increasing our turnover by 4.5%. At the same time, operational transformation continues, with a focus on initiatives aimed at generating relevant and sustainable efficiencies.
We remain ambitious in leading a new market cycle, driven by innovation, financial discipline and a clear vision for the future. We are ready to continue creating value for all our stakeholders and for the country.

Consolidated revenue reached 421.4 million euros in 1Q25, reflecting a year-on-year growth of 4.5%. This performance was driven by the strength of the Telco operations, with a strong contribution from the Business segment, and the positive performance of the Cinema exhibition & Audiovisual business.
The Telco business maintained its growth trajectory, recording a year-on-year increase of 4.6% to 406.7 million euros, largely driven by the high volume of resale revenues in the business segment, but also by growth in the Consumer segment. Excluding the impact of these resale revenues, Telecommunications revenues increased by 3.5%.
In the Consumer segment, which includes services provided to households and individuals, revenue grew by 1.4% to 281.4 million euros, reflecting the resilience of the business in a context of increased competitive pressure. This growth was supported by positive trends in the convergent customer segment and postpaid mobile services, both of which are higher value-added segments.
Despite rising competitive pressure, growth in higher value services, such as postpaid mobile, highlights the resilience of the business and the attractiveness of our value proposition in these segments. Total RGUs declined by 40.1 thousand units, mainly due to a decrease in prepaid mobile services, impacted by a reclassification of the customer base. Excluding this reclassification, net additions in mobile services showed a positive performance.
NOS continues to establish itself as the partner of choice for digital transformation across the Portuguese enterprise sector, with revenues from this segment reflecting a significant increase of 13.3% to 99.2 million euros, representing almost 25% of total telecommunications revenues. Growth dynamics are present across all business segments, with the Corporate segment recording the strongest growth, driven by higher volumes of Telco and IT resale, which grew by 4.2 million euros year-on-year. Excluding resale-related revenues, growth in the business segment stood at 9.0%.
The Wholesale and Other segment recorded an increase of 2.2 million euros to 26.1 million euros, driven by the sale of value-added call services. These services contributed to year-on-year revenue growth in this area, despite their lower margin and volatile nature.
The Cinema and Audiovisual business maintained a positive growth trajectory in 1Q25, with revenue increasing by 1.5% to a total of 23.1 million euros. In the cinema exhibition segment, the number of tickets sold declined by 4.2% year-on-year, as the blockbusters shown during 1Q25 did not match the success of those released in Q1 2024, which benefited from an earlier Easter period, resulting in a 2.2% drop in revenues for this segment. In the Audiovisual segment, revenue increased by 15.2%, supported by the success of the NOS Audiovisuais distribution portfolio, namely "Mufasa: The Lion King" and "SONIC 3", both of which featured in the Top 3 most-watched films in 1Q25.

Consolidated EBITDA reached 192.3 million euros in 1Q25, representing year-on-year growth of 4.3%. This performance was supported by the solid growth of the Telecommunications business, particularly in the Business segment, and by the contribution of the Cinema and Audiovisual business. The EBITDA margin stood at 45.6%, reflecting a slight compression compared to the same period last year, justified by the increased weight of B2B revenue, particularly resale, which typically yields a lower margin, despite strong operational performance. Excluding resale-related revenues and costs, the EBITDA margin expanded by 0.1pp to 46.3%.
Consolidated OPEX totalled 229.0 million euros, an increase of 4.7% compared to Q1 2024. Direct costs associated with the business segment saw a significant increase, reflecting the growth in low-margin Telco resale revenues.
Despite cost pressures, our operational transformation programme continues to leverage the potential of disruptive technologies such as artificial intelligence and generative AI, enabling us to redesign processes and achieve efficiencies across various areas.
Lease costs amounted to 30.9 million euros, an increase of 6.2% compared to the same period last year, reflecting a higher number of sites and the impact of inflation adjustment in payments to Cellnex (although capped at 2%). Including the impact of leases, EBITDA AL stood at 161.4 million euros, representing year-onyear growth of 3.9%, with the EBITDA AL margin reaching 38.3%.
Consolidated Net Income reached 59.0 million euros in 1Q25. EBITDA contributed positively by 7.9 million euros compared to the same period last year, reflecting the Group's strong operational performance. Depreciation and Amortisation remained relatively stable year-on-year, with a negative contribution of 1.4 million euros compared to 1Q24. Financing and Other Costs recorded a decrease and a positive contribution of 4.6 million euros, benefiting from a more favourable interest rate environment compared to the same period last year. The contribution from associated companies and joint ventures had a significant and positive impact on net profit of 6.7 million euros year-on-year, mainly due to a provision reversal at SportTV and our stake in ZAP, which benefited from a more favourable operational and exchange rate environment. Other costs and income recorded a negative variation of 27.3 million euros, which includes the impact of extraordinary income related to legal proceedings ruled in favour of NOS, which in 1Q25 were 26.2 million euros lower than in 1Q24. Income tax decreased compared to Q1 2024, reflecting a lower pre-tax profit base. Excluding the extraordinary income recorded, net profit increased by 20.8% to 55.2 million euros.
Total CAPEX, excluding lease contracts and other contractual rights, stood at 90.3 million euros in 1Q25, reflecting a year-on-year decrease of 1.8%. This evolution follows the structural deceleration trend in investment, resulting from the strategy of frontloading network investments in recent years.
Technical CAPEX declined by 1.0% year-on-year, with its weight over telecommunications revenue decreasing by 0.7pp to 12.2%. The reduction in CAPEX levels in the Telecommunications segment reflects the maturity of the already deployed infrastructure, following a significant investment effort to ensure the best and most reliable mobile network in the country. In the fixed network, we continue to modernise and expand through the most efficient combination of own build, sharing agreements and wholesale solutions. This strategy allows us to maximise coverage while optimising capital cost and environmental impact. Customer-related CAPEX increased by 1.3% to 36.6 million euros, reflecting commercial activity.

EBITDA AL - CAPEX increased by 12.2% in 1Q25, driven by the growth in EBITDA AL and the structural reduction in investment levels, as previously mentioned. Working capital and non-cash items decreased by 5.8 million euros, resulting in a 2.8% increase in operating cash flow to 70.6 million euros.
Interest payments amounted to 4.1 million euros, representing a decrease of 4.1 million euros compared to the same period last year, reflecting the overall lower interest rate environment.
Total Free Cash Flow also benefited from the receipt of 18.5 million euros related to activity fees, following a favourable court ruling initially communicated in 4Q23. This amount is recorded under other movements and compares to 20.2 million euros in 1Q24.
Taking these factors into account, Free Cash Flow before dividends, financial investments and treasury share acquisitions reached 83.4 million euros, representing an increase of 5.2% compared to 1Q24. Excluding nonrecurring effects, Free Cash Flow grew by 9.9% to 64.9 million euros. The Financial Investments item recorded a net amount of 145.4 million euros, reflecting the completion of the acquisition of 100% of the share capital of Claranet Portugal, S.A. at the end of 1Q25.

At the end of 1Q25, NOS reported Net Financial Debt of 976.7 million euros, with total debt including lease liabilities (under IFRS 16) amounting to 1,609 million euros. The Net Financial Debt / EBITDA AL ratio stood at 1.5x in 1Q25, positioning NOS as one of the most conservative in the sector.
The average all-in cost of debt in 1Q25 was 3.3%, representing a decrease of 0.3pp compared to the previous quarter.
NOS maintains a very strong liquidity position, totalling 352.4 million euros, distributed between undrawn commercial paper programmes of 340 million euros and 12.4 million euros in Cash and Cash Equivalents.
As of 31 March 2025, 19% of NOS's debt was issued at fixed rate and 53% was covered by interest rate collars. The average maturity of total debt as of 31 March was 2 years and 2 months.
Currently, over 90% of NOS's total financial debt is linked to ESG performance targets, reaffirming our commitment to achieving the company's global sustainability performance ambition. In March 2025, NOS secured 100 million euros in commercial paper programmes maturing in 2030, through three financial institutions – Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria (BBVA), Caixa Geral de Depósitos (CGD), and Banco Comercial Português (Millennium bcp).

On 11 April 2025, NOS held its Annual General Meeting. All items on the agenda were approved and, as a result, NOS shareholders approved the payment of a total dividend of 0.40 cents per share (0.35 cents per share as an ordinary dividend and 0.05 cents per share as an extraordinary dividend), which was paid on 24 April 2025.
Following this dividend payment, NOS will maintain a solid capital structure, remaining below its target net leverage ratio of 2x NFD / EBITDA AL.

As at 31 March 2025
(Amounts expressed in thousands of euros, unless otherwise stated)
NOS, SGPS, S.A. ("NOS", "NOS SGPS" or the "Company"), whose name has not changed during the year, was formerly known as ZON OPTIMUS, SGPS, S.A. ("ZON OPTIMUS") and until 27 August 2013 as ZON Multimédia - Serviços de Telecomunicações e Multimédia, SGPS, S. A. ("ZON").A. ("ZON"), currently with registered offices at Rua Actor António Silva, nº 9, Campo Grande, was incorporated by Portugal Telecom, SGPS, S.A. ("Portugal Telecom") on 15 July 1999 with the aim of developing its strategy for the multimedia business.
During 2007, Portugal Telecom carried out the spinoff of ZON, allocating its shareholding in this company to its shareholders, which became totally independent from Portugal Telecom.
During 2013, ZON and Optimus, SGPS, S.A. ("Optimus SGPS") completed a merger by incorporation of Optimus SGPS into ZON, with the Company adopting the name ZON OPTIMUS, SGPS, S.A. on that date.
On 20 June 2014, as a result of the launch of the new "NOS" brand on 16 May 2014, the General Meeting of Shareholders approved a change in the Company's name to NOS, SGPS, S.A.
The businesses operated by NOS and its subsidiaries that comprise its corporate universe ("Group" or "NOS Group") include cable and satellite television services, voice services and Internet access, video production and sale, advertising on pay-TV channels, operating movie theatres, film distribution, the production of pay-TV channels, management of datacentres, licensing and provision of engineering and consultancy services in the field of IT, mainly in the Portuguese market.

The activity of these companies is regulated by Law 16/2022 (Electronic Communications Law), which establishes the regime applicable to electronic communications networks and services.

NOS Audio - Sales and Distribution, formerly NOS Lusomundo TV and the result of the merger of NOSPUB into NOS Lusomundo TV in December 2020, is primarily engaged in the negotiation, purchase and distribution of content rights and other multimedia products for television and other distribution platforms, currently producing cinema channels and series through the compilation of acquired content, which are distributed, among other operators, by NOS SA and its subsidiaries. This company also manages the advertising space of pay-TV channels and NOS Cinemas movie theatres.
NOS Audiovisuais and NOS Cinemas, together with their associated companies, operate in the audiovisual sector, which includes video production and sale, film distribution, operating movie theatres, and the acquisition/negotiation of pay-TV and VOD (video-on-demand) rights.
NOS Inovação main activities are conducting and stimulating scientific activities of R&D (it owns all the intellectual property developed within the NOS Group, intending to guarantee the return of the initial investment through the commercialisation of patents and concessions for commercial operation, as a result of the creation of new products and services), the demonstration, promotion, transfer or technology and training in the fields of information services and systems and state-of-the-art fixed and mobile TV, internet, voice and data solutions.
On 17 March 2025, NOS acquired the entire share capital of the Claranet Portugal Group. The Claranet Group's main activity is the provision of Information Technology services , including Cloud, Workplace, Applications, Data & AI, and Security solutions, as well as cybersecurity and connectivity services. The income statement for the quarter ended 31 March 2025 does not include any Claranet operations.
The notes to the financial statements follow the order in which the items are presented in the consolidated financial statements.
The consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended 31 March 2025 were approved by the Board of Directors and authorised for issue on 6 May 2025.
The Board of Directors believes that these financial statements give a true and fair view of the Group's operations, financial performance and consolidated cash flows.
The main accounting policies applied in preparing the financial statements are described below. These policies have been consistently applied to all financial years presented, unless otherwise stated.
The condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34"). Consequently, these financial statements do not include all the information required by IFRS and should therefore be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in euros as this is the main currency of the Group's operations and all figures are presented in thousands of euros, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements of subsidiaries with another main currency have been converted into euros in accordance with the accounting policies described in Note 2.3.21

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis from the accounting books and records of the companies included in the consolidation (Appendix A) and under the historical cost convention, modified, where applicable, by the valuation of financial assets and liabilities (including derivatives) at fair value (Note 2.3.24).
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS, the Board of Directors used estimates, assumptions, and critical judgements with an impact on the value of assets and liabilities and the recognition of income and expenses for each reporting period. Although these estimates are based on the best information available at the date of preparation of the consolidated financial statements, current and future results may differ from these estimates. The areas involving a greater degree of judgement and estimates are presented in Note 3.
The Board of Directors considers that there are no material uncertainties that could jeopardise the going concern assumption, despite current liabilities being higher than current assets. An analysis was carried out and it was concluded that the Group has the necessary resources to continue as a going concern for a period of no less than 12 months from the reporting date.
In the preparation and presentation of the consolidated financial statements, the NOS Group declares explicit and unqualified compliance with IAS/IFRS standards and their SIC/IFRIC interpretations, approved by the European Union.
The following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions endorsed by the European Union have mandatory application for the first time in the financial year beginning on 1 January 2025:
The amendments have no material impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.
The following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions, with mandatory application in the quarter and in future financial years, have not been endorsed by the European Union as of the date of approval of these financial statements:

The amendments apply to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026. Early application is permitted.
For each MPM presented, companies will need to explain in a single note to the financial statements why the measure provides useful information and how it is calculated, and to reconcile it to an amount determined under IFRS.

may elect to apply the new standard in its consolidated, individual or separate financial statements, provided that, at the reporting date:
A subsidiary that applies IFRS 19 is required to state clearly in its explicit and unconditional statement of compliance with IFRS that IFRS 19 has been adopted.
The Standard applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 and applies retrospectively. Early application is permitted.
The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has also introduced additional disclosure requirements relating to equity investments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial instruments with contingent features, for example ESG target-linked features. The standard applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026 and applies retrospectively. Early application is permitted.
• Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Amendments to Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity: On 18 December 2024, the IASB issued amendments to help companies better report the financial effects of nature-dependent electricity contracts, which are often structured as power purchase agreements (PPAs).
Nature-dependent electricity contracts help companies to secure their electricity supply from sources such as wind and solar power. The amount of electricity generated under these contracts can vary based on uncontrollable factors, such as weather conditions. Current accounting requirements may not adequately capture how these contracts affect a company's performance.

To allow companies to better reflect these contracts in their financial statements, the IASB has made targeted amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The amendments include:
These amendments are effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026 . Early adoption is permitted.
These standards/amendments have not yet been endorsed by the European Union and, as such, were not applied by the Group during the quarter ended 31 March 2025. The Group is analysing the possible impacts of applying the new standards/amendments.
Subsidiaries were consolidated using the full consolidation method. Control over an entity is considered to exist when the Group is exposed and/or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement, and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. In particular, when the Company directly or indirectly holds the majority of the voting rights at the General Meeting or has the power to determine financial and operating policies. In situations where the Company has substantial control over other entities created for a specific purpose, even if it does not directly hold shareholdings in those entities, they are consolidated using the full consolidation method. The entities in these situations are listed in Appendix A .
Third parties' shareholdings in the equity and net income of these companies are shown separately in the consolidated statement of financial position and the consolidated income statement, respectively, under "Non-controlling interests" (Note 23).
The identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are initially measured at fair value on the acquisition date, regardless of the existence of noncontrolling interests. The excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of the Group's share of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired is recognised as goodwill. In cases where the acquisition cost is lower than the fair value of the net assets identified, the difference is recognised as a gain in the income statement for the year in which the acquisition takes place.
Non-controlling interests are initially recognised at the respective proportion of the fair value of the assets and liabilities identified.
When additional shares are acquired in companies already controlled by the Group, the difference between the percentage of capital acquired and the respective acquisition value is recognised directly in equity.
Whenever an increase in the share capital of an associated company results in the acquisition of control, which is then included in the consolidated financial statements using the full consolidation method, the fair values of the percentages previously held are considered as part of the purchase price, and the difference between the book value of the shareholding in the associated company and the fair value is recognised in the income statement.
Directly attributable transaction costs are immediately recognised in the income statement.

When the Group loses control over a controlled entity, the assets and liabilities of that entity are derecognised, along with any non-controlling interests and other components recognised in equity. Any resulting gain or loss is recognised in the income statement. Any interest held in the entity is measured at fair value when control is lost.
The results of companies acquired or sold during the year are included in the income statements from the date of obtaining control or until the date of disposal, respectively.
Internal transactions, balances, unrealised gains on transactions and dividends distributed between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.
Whenever necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries in order to standardise their accounting policies with those of the Group.
The classification of financial investments in jointly controlled companies is determined on the basis of the existence of shareholders' agreements that demonstrate and regulate joint control. Investments in jointly controlled companies are accounted for using the equity method (Appendix C). In accordance with this method, the financial investments are periodically adjusted by the amount corresponding to the share in the net results of the jointly controlled companies, against the item "Losses / (gains) in subsidiaries, net" in the income statement. Direct changes in equity following the acquisition of jointly controlled companies are recognised in the amount of the investments against "Reserves" in equity.
In addition, financial investments may also be adjusted by recognising impairment losses.
Any excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of the identifiable net assets and liabilities (goodwill) is recorded as part of the financial investment in jointly controlled companies, and the investment is tested for impairment when there are indicators of loss of value. In cases where the acquisition cost is lower than the fair value of the net assets identified, the difference is recognised as a gain in the income statement for the year in which the acquisition takes place.
Losses in jointly controlled companies that exceed the investment made in those entities are not recognised, except when the Group has assumed commitments towards that entity.
Dividends received from these companies are recognised as a decrease in the value of financial investments.
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence, through participation in decisions relating to its financial and operating policies but does not have control or joint control.
Any excess of the acquisition cost of a financial investment over the fair value of the identifiable net assets is recorded as goodwill and added to the value of the respective financial investment and its recovery is analysed within the scope of the financial investment in the associate whenever there are signs of a possible loss of value. In cases where the acquisition cost is lower than the fair value of the identifiable net assets, the difference is recognised as a gain in the income statement for the period in which the acquisition takes place.
Financial investments in associated companies (Appendix B) are recorded using the equity method, except for associated companies held directly or indirectly through a venture capital organisation. In accordance with this method, financial investments are periodically adjusted by the amount corresponding to the share in the net results of associated companies, against the item "Losses / (gains) in associated companies, net" in the income statement. Direct changes in equity following the acquisition of associates are recognised in

the value of the shareholding against reserves , in equity. In addition, shareholdings may also be adjusted by recognising impairment losses.
The Group's investments in associated companies, held directly or indirectly through a venture capital organisation, are measured at fair value through profit or loss. These investments are shown under "Other non-current financial assets" in the statement of financial position and changes in fair value are recorded against "Losses / (gains) on financial assets, net" in the income statement.
Losses in associates exceeding the investment made in those entities are not recognised, except when the Group has assumed commitments towards that associate.
Dividends received from these companies are recognised as a decrease in the value of financial investments.
Investments made by the Group in entities where it does not exercise significant influence are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
These investments are shown under "Other non-current financial assets" in the statement of financial position and changes in fair value are recognised under "Losses / (gains) on financial assets, net" in the income statement.
Balances and transactions, as well as unrealised gains, between Group companies and between these and the parent company are eliminated on consolidation.
Unrealised gains arising from transactions with associated companies or jointly controlled companies are eliminated in consolidation to the extent attributable to the Group. Unrealised losses are likewise eliminated unless they provide evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.
As recommended by IFRS 8, the Group presents its operating segments based on internally produced management information (Note 5). In fact, the operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal management information model provided to the Group's chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources to the segment and assessing its performance, as well as making strategic decisions.
The Group presents assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position based on their classification as current or non-current. An asset is classified as current when:

A liability is classified as current when:
The Group's other assets and liabilities are classified as non-current.
Realisable assets and liabilities due within one year of the statement of financial position date are classified under current assets and current liabilities, respectively.
In accordance with IAS 1, "Restructuring costs", "Losses / (gains) on disposal of assets, net" and "Other nonrecurring costs / (gains), net" reflect unusual costs and revenues that should be reported separately from the usual cost and revenue lines, in order to avoid distorting the financial information of regular operations, and to be consistent with the way in which the group's financial performance is analysed and monitored by management. These unusual costs and revenues may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. When determining whether an event or transaction is unusual, management considers both quantitative and qualitative factors. Examples of unusual costs and revenues are: business restructuring programmes and respective indemnities; regulatory matters and lawsuits; extraordinary impairment of assets due to reduction in their recoverable value; disposal of non-current assets ; among others.. If costs and revenues consistently meet established criteria throughout reporting periods, they are classified as unusual and presented separately within the financial statements.
Tangible fixed assets are stated at acquisition cost, less depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, where applicable. The acquisition cost includes, in addition to the purchase price of the asset: (i) the expenses directly attributable to the purchase; and (ii) the estimated costs of dismantling, removing the assets and requalifying the site, which in the Group is mainly applicable to the business of operating movie theatres, telecommunications towers and offices (Note 7).
Estimated losses arising from the replacement of equipment before the end of its useful life, for reasons of technological obsolescence, are recognised as a deduction from the respective asset against profit or loss for the period. Maintenance and repair costs of a current nature are recognised as a cost when incurred. Significant costs incurred in renewing or improving assets are capitalised and depreciated over the corresponding estimated period of recovery of these investments, when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the company and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.
Gains and losses on disposals of tangible fixed assets, determined by the difference between the sale price and the respective net book value, are recognised in the income statement under "Losses / (gains) on disposals of assets, net".
Tangible fixed assets are depreciated from the moment they are ready for use. Depreciation of these assets, less their residual value, is carried out using the straight-line method, in twelfths, from the month in which they are available for use, in accordance with the useful life of the assets, defined according to their expected usefulness.

The depreciation rates applied translate into the following estimated useful lives:
| Buildings and other constructions | 2 to 50 | 2 to 50 |
|---|---|---|
| Basic equipment: | ||
| Network equipment | 8 to 40 | 8 to 40 |
| Terminal equipment | 1 to 5 | 1 to 5 |
| Other basic equipment | 1 to 16 | 1 to 16 |
| Transport equipment | 3 to 4 | 3 to 4 |
| Administrative equipment | 2 to 10 | 2 to 10 |
| Other tangible fixed assets | 4 to 8 | 4 to 8 |
During the quarter ended 31 March 2025, NOS revised the depreciation rates of some equipment installed in customers' homes in the Alarms business, reducing the useful life from 5 years to the same period, resulting in an increase in Depreciation, amortisation and impairment losses (Tangible fixed assets) of €4.5 million (Note 37).
Non-current assets (or discontinued operations) are classified as held for sale if their value is realisable through a sale transaction rather than through their continued use.
This situation is considered to occur only when: (i) the sale is highly probable and the asset is available for immediate sale in its current condition; (ii) the Group has made a commitment to sell; and (iii) the sale is expected to materialise within 12 months. In this case, non-current assets are measured at the lower of book value or fair value less costs to sell.
Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations are measured at the lower of: i) carrying amount and; ii) fair value less costs to sell. Costs to sell are the incremental costs directly attributable to the disposal of an asset (or disposal group), excluding financing costs and income tax expenses.
Once certain tangible fixed assets are considered to be "held for sale", the depreciation inherent to these assets ceases and they are classified as non-current assets held for sale.
A discontinued operation is a component of an entity that either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale, and:
Discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and are presented separately as a net income after tax arising from discontinued operations in the income statement.
Intangible assets are recorded at acquisition cost, less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses, when applicable. They are only recognised when future economic benefits will flow to the Group and when these can be reliably measured.

Intangible assets are essentially made up of goodwill, telecommunications licenses, software, rights to use content and other contractual rights.
Group companies periodically carry out an impairment assessment of intangible assets in progress. This impairment assessment is also carried out whenever an event or change in circumstances may indicate that the amount for which the asset is recognised may not be recovered. If such indications exist, the Group determines the asset's recoverable value in order to determine the existence and extent of the impairment loss.
Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition cost over the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of a subsidiary, jointly controlled entity or associate on the respective acquisition date, in accordance with IFRS 3.
Goodwill is recognised as an asset and included under "Intangible assets" (Note 8), in the case of a controlled company or if the excess cost originates from an acquisition by merger, and under "Investments in joint ventures and associates" (Note 11), in the case of a jointly controlled entity or associated company.
Goodwill is not amortised but is subject to impairment tests at least once a year, on a specific date, and whenever there are changes to the assumptions underlying the test carried out at the statement of financial position date, which result in a possible loss of value. Any impairment loss is recorded immediately in the income statement for the period under "Depreciation, amortisation and impairment losses" and cannot be reversed later.
For the purposes of impairment tests, goodwill is attributed to the cash-generating units to which it relates (Note 8), which may correspond to the business segments in which the Group operates or at a lower level.
Internally generated intangible assets, namely research expenses, are recognised as costs when incurred. Development costs are recognised only after technical and commercial feasibility of the asset for sale or use have been established.
The assets classified under this item refer to rights and licenses contractually acquired by the Group from third parties and used in the development of the Group's activities, and include:
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) agreements are service contracts in which NOS has the right to access a particular Cloud application/software for a specified period of time, contracted with the supplier. Costs incurred with configuration, customisation and ongoing access to the Cloud application/software are recognised as operating expenses when the services are received
Costs incurred with the development, improvement or modification of existing NOS applications/software, even if interconnected with SaaS agreements, and which fulfil the recognition criteria, are recorded as intangible assets.

Content exploitation rights are recognised in the statement of financial position as an intangible asset whenever the following conditions are met: (i) there is control over the content, (ii) the company has the right to choose how to exploit this content and (iii) it is available for exhibition.
The conclusion of contracts related to sports content that is not immediately available gives rise to rights that are initially classified as contractual commitments.
In the specific case of broadcasting rights for sports competitions, and once the conditions to be recognised as intangible assets have been met, they are recognised as assets when the necessary conditions have been met for the organisation of each sports competition, which occurs on the date of approval of the teams participating in the competition to be held in the sports season to be started, by the organising entity, taking into account that it is from this date that the conditions for the recognition of an asset are met, namely the unequivocal obtaining of control of the rights to exploit the matches of that season. In this situation, the depreciation of these rights is recognised in the income statement under "Depreciation, amortisation and impairment losses", using the straight-line method, in twelfths, from the start of the month in which they are available for use.
As a result of agreements reached for the transfer of exclusive rights to exploit sports content, and as permitted by IAS 1, since 2017, NOS has presented assets and liabilities net of the amounts transferred to other operators, as it believes that this compensation better reflects the substance of the transactions.
Whenever the intangible assets recognised involve payments over periods of more than 1 year, the intangible asset corresponds to the present value of these payments.
The useful lives of intangible assets are classified as definite or indefinite.
Intangible assets that have definite useful lives are amortised over their useful life, and an impairment analysis is carried out whenever there are indications that the amount for which the intangible asset is recorded may not be recovered. The amortisation period and amortisation method of an intangible asset with a definite useful life are reviewed periodically. Any changes in the expected useful life or in the expected pattern of consumption in the future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered when modifying the amortisation period or method and, if verified, are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation costs of intangible assets with definite lives are recognised in the income statement.
Assets with a definite useful life are amortised on a straight-line basis, in twelfths, from the beginning of the month in which they are available for use.
The amortisation rates used translate into the following estimated useful lives:
| Telecoms licenses | 20 to 33 | 20 to 33 |
|---|---|---|
| Software licenses | 1 to 8 | 1 to 8 |
| Rights to use content | Contract period | Contract period |
| Other contractual rights | 1 to 20 | 1 to 20 |
During the quarter ended 31 March 2025, the amortisation rates remained unchanged.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortised, but impairment tests are carried out annually.

Thus, the useful life of an intangible asset that is not being amortised is reviewed periodically to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life assessment for that asset. If this is not the case, the change in the assessment of the useful life from indefinite to finite is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.
An intangible asset is derecognised when it is disposed of, or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an intangible asset (determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of that asset) is recognised in the income statement.
Costs of contracts with customers correspond to costs incurred in attracting customers and costs associated with fulfilling a contract which are capitalised whenever they meet all the following criteria:
These costs are recognised over the expected period of service to customers (2 to 4 years).
The costs of customer acquisition are essentially:
The costs associated with the fulfilment of contracts are essentially:
Group companies periodically assess the impairment of non-current assets. This impairment assessment is also carried out whenever an event or change in circumstances may indicate that the amount for which the asset is recognised may not be recovered. If such indications exist, the Group determines the asset's recoverable value in order to determine the existence and extent of the impairment loss.
The recoverable amount is estimated for each asset individually or, if this is not possible, the assets are grouped to the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Each of the Group's businesses constitutes a cash-generating unit, except for some of the cinema exhibition assets, which are grouped by regional cash-generating units.
The recoverable amount is determined by the higher of the net selling price and the value in use. The net selling price is the amount that would be obtained from the disposal of the asset in a transaction between

independent and knowledgeable entities, less the costs directly attributable to the disposal. Value in use is the present value of the estimated future cash flows arising from the continued use of the asset or cashgenerating unit. Whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised.
The reversal of impairment losses recognised in previous years is recorded when there are indications that those losses no longer exist or have decreased. The reversal of impairment losses is recognised in the income statement in the year in which it occurs. However, an impairment loss can only be reversed up to the amount that would have been recognised (net of amortisation or depreciation) if the impairment loss had not been recognised in previous years.
Financial assets are recognised in the Group's statement of financial position on the trade or contract date, which is the date on which the Group undertakes to acquire or dispose of the asset.
At inception, with the exception of accounts receivable - trade, financial assets are recognised at fair value plus directly attributable transaction costs, except for assets at fair value through profit or loss where transaction costs are immediately recognised in profit or loss. Accounts receivable - trade are initially recognised at their transaction price, as defined by IFRS 15.
Financial assets are derecognised when:
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and presented at net value when, and only when, the Group has the right to offset the recognised amounts and intends to settle on a net basis.
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets measured at amortised cost, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. Their classification depends on the entity's business model for managing financial assets and the contractual characteristics in terms of the financial asset's cash flows.
This category includes derivative financial instruments and equity instruments that the Group has not classified as financial assets through other comprehensive income at the time of initial recognition. This category also includes all financial instruments whose contractual cash flows are not exclusively principal and interest.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are presented in the statement of financial position at fair value, with net changes recognised in the income statement. This category of assets includes derivative instruments and investments in listed companies for which the Company has not adopted the classification as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. Dividends from investments in listed companies are recognised as income in the income statement when the respective right to receive them is formally established.
Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of assets measured at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in the income statement for the year in which they occur under "Losses / (gains) on financial assets, net", which includes the amounts of interest and dividend income.

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are those that are part of a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets measured at amortised cost are those that are part of a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets measured at amortised cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest rate method and subject to impairment. Income and expenses are recognised in the income statement when the asset is derecognised, updated or impaired. The Company's financial assets measured at amortised cost include accounts receivable and loans granted to related parties.
The amounts included under "Cash and cash equivalents" correspond to cash, bank deposits, term deposits and other treasury applications with an initial maturity of up to three months from the date of acquisition and which can be mobilised immediately with an insignificant risk of change in value.
For the purposes of the cash flow statement, "Cash and cash equivalents" also includes bank overdrafts included in the statement of financial position under "Borrowings" (if applicable).
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to their contractual substance, regardless of their legal form. Financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value. Equity instruments are contracts that show a residual interest in the Group's assets after deducting liabilities. Equity instruments issued by Group companies are recognised at the amount received, net of the costs incurred with their issue. Financial liabilities are derecognised only when extinguished, e.g., when the obligation is settled, cancelled or expired.
According to IFRS 9, financial liabilities are classified as subsequently measured at amortised cost, with the exception of:
The Group's financial liabilities include: borrowings, accounts payable and derivative financial instruments.

At each statement of financial position date, the Group analyses and recognises expected losses for its debt securities, loans and accounts receivable. Expected losses result from the difference between all the contractual cash flows that are due to an entity in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the entity expects to receive, discounted at the original effective interest rate.
The objective of this impairment policy is to recognise expected credit losses over the respective duration of financial instruments that have been subject to significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition, assessed on an individual or collective basis, taking into account all reasonable and sustainable information, including forward-looking information. If, at the reporting date, the credit risk associated with a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group measures the provision for losses relating to that financial instrument at an amount equivalent to the credit losses expected within 12 months.
For accounts receivable and contract assets under IFRS 15, the Group adopts the simplified approach when calculating expected credit losses. As such, the Group does not monitor changes in credit risk, recognising instead impairment losses based on the expected credit loss at each reporting date. The Group has established a provision matrix where it presents an impairment loss criterion that is based on the history of credit losses, adjusted for prospective factors specific to customers and the economic environment.
The Group applies the hedge accounting requirements of IFRS 9.
The Group uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward exchange rate contracts and interest rate swaps, to hedge its exchange rate and interest rate risks, respectively. These derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date the derivative is contracted and are subsequently measured at fair value. Derivatives are recognised as assets when their fair value is positive and as liabilities when their fair value is negative.
In terms of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as:
The NOS Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge fair value and cash flows.
At the start of the hedging relationship, the Group formally designates and documents the hedging relationship for which it intends to apply hedge accounting as well as the management purpose and strategy of that hedge.
The documentation includes the identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item or transaction, the nature of the risk to be hedged and how the Group assesses whether the hedging relationship fulfils the hedge accounting requirements (including its analysis of the sources of hedge ineffectiveness and how it determines the hedge rate). A hedging relationship qualifies for hedge accounting if it fulfils all of the following hedge effectiveness requirements:

Hedging relationships that fulfil the above eligibility criteria are accounted for as follows:
The change in the fair value of the hedging instrument is recognised in the income statement. The change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk is recognised as part of the carrying amount of the hedged item and is also recognised in the income statement.
For fair value hedges of items measured at amortised cost, any adjustment to the carrying amount is amortised to the income statement over the remaining period of the hedge using the effective interest method. Amortisation using the effective interest method begins when the adjustment is made and no later than when the hedged item ceases to be adjusted for the changes in fair value attributable to the risk being hedged.
If the hedged item is derecognised, the fair value to be amortised is recorded immediately in the income statement.
When an unrecorded commitment is designated as a hedged item, subsequent cumulative changes in the fair value of the Group's commitment attributable to the hedged risk are recognised as an asset or liability and the corresponding gain or loss recorded in the income statement.
The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognised in Other comprehensive income in the cash flow hedge reserve, while the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement. The cash flow hedge reserve is adjusted to the lower of the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument and the cumulative change in the fair value of the hedged item.
The Group uses forward contracts:
The ineffective portion related to exchange rate contracts is recognised as "Exchange rate losses/(gains), net", and the ineffective portion related to interest rate contracts is recognised as "Financing costs".
During the quarter ended 31 March 2025, the Group did not make any changes to the recognition method.
The amounts accumulated in Other Comprehensive Income are accounted for according to the nature of the respective hedging relationship. If the hedging relationship subsequently translates into the recording of a non-financial item, the accumulated amount is removed from the separate equity component and included in the initial cost or book value of the hedged asset or liability. This is not a reclassification adjustment and should not be recognised in Other comprehensive income for the period. This also applies when an expected hedged transaction of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability becomes a commitment of the Group subject to hedge accounting.

For any other cash flow hedges, the amount accumulated in Other comprehensive income is reclassified to the income statement as a reclassification adjustment in the same period or periods during which the hedged cash flows affect the income statement.
If cash flow hedge accounting is discontinued, the amount accumulated in Other comprehensive income must remain if the hedged future cash flows are still expected to occur. Otherwise, the accumulated amount is reclassified immediately to the income statement as a reclassification adjustment. After interruption, as soon as the hedged cash flows occur, any accumulated amount remaining in Other comprehensive income should be accounted for according to the nature of the underlying transaction as described above.
Inventories, which essentially include mobile devices and their accessories for sale, equipment for installation in customers' homes, network and infrastructure equipment and products for sale in the cinema bar, are valued at the lower of their cost and net realisable value.
The acquisition cost includes the invoice price, transport and insurance costs, using the "Weighted Average Cost" as the output costing method.
Inventories are adjusted for both technological obsolescence and the difference between acquisition cost and realisable value, if this is lower, and this reduction is recognised directly in the income statement for the period.
The net realisable value corresponds to the normal selling price less the costs of completing production and marketing costs.
Differences between the cost and the respective net realisable value of inventories, if this is lower than the cost, are recorded as operating costs under "Cost of products sold".
As inventories in transit are not available for consumption or sale, they are segregated from other inventories and are valued at their specific acquisition cost.
The conclusion of contracts related to sports content gives rise to rights that are initially classified as contractual commitments.
Content broadcasting rights are recorded in the statement of financial position, under Inventories, in the event that there is no full right over the form of exploitation of the asset, at the respective cost value or net realisable value, whichever is lower, whenever the programme content has been received and is available for exhibition or use, in accordance with contractual conditions, without any production or alteration, it being understood for this purpose that the necessary conditions for the organisation of each sporting competition have been met, which occurs on the date of approval of the teams participating in the competition to be held in the sporting season to be started, by the organising entity. These rights are recognised in the income statement under "Direct costs: Content costs", on a systematic basis taking into account the pattern of economic benefits obtained through their commercial exploitation. No balances of content exploitation rights are recognised under Inventories.
As a result of the agreement reached with the national operators on the reciprocal provision, for several sports seasons (collaborative arrangement), of the sports content (national and international) held by them (Note 43.2), NOS considered recognising the costs and revenues net of the amounts shared by the other operators, on a systematic basis, taking into account the pattern of economic benefits obtained through their commercial exploitation.
Grants are recognised at fair value when there is reasonable assurance that Group companies will comply with any conditions attached to the grant and the grant will be received.

Operating grants, namely for employee training, are recognised in the income statement against the corresponding costs incurred.
Investment grants are deducted from tangible and intangible fixed assets to the extent of the associated expenses and are recognised in the income statement (depreciation, amortisation and impairment losses) on a systematic and rational basis over the useful life of the asset.
Provisions are recognised when:
When one of the conditions described above is not met, the Group discloses the events as contingent liabilities, unless the possibility of an outflow of funds arising from the contingency is remote, in which case they are not disclosed.
Provisions for ongoing legal proceedings brought against the Group are recognised in accordance with risk assessments made by the Group and its legal advisors, based on success rates.
Provisions for restructuring are only recognised when the Group has a detailed and formalised plan identifying the main features of the programme and after these facts have been communicated to the entities involved.
Provisions for the costs of dismantling, removing assets and restoring the site are recognised when the assets are installed (againstTangible fixed assets ) whenever there is a legal or constructive obligation to dismantle an asset, restore the site on which it is located and when a reasonable estimate can be made. The present value is calculated based on discounted values and considering the economic useful life of the assets. The amount of the liability reflects the effects over time, and the corresponding financial update is recognised in the income statement as a financial cost. The effects of changes resulting from revisions to the term or value of the original estimate of the provision are reflected prospectively, adjusting the book value of the tangible fixed asset. However, when there is no asset, or the change implies a nil book value, the effect, or the excess value of the asset reduction, is recognised in the income statement. The discount rate applied on 31 March 2025 was 3.4%. The discount rate is reviewed periodically/annually.
Present obligations arising from onerous contracts are recognised and measured as provisions. An onerous contract exists when the Company is an integral part of a contract, the fulfilment of which has costs directly associated with the contract (both incremental costs and an allocation of costs directly related to the contract) that exceed the future economic benefits.
No provisions are recognised for future operating losses.
Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the financial statements, except as provided for in IFRS 3 in the context of business combinations and are disclosed whenever the possibility of an outflow of resources involving economic benefits is not remote. Contingent assets are not recognised in the financial statements but are disclosed when it is probable that there will be a future economic inflow of resources.
Provisions are reviewed and updated on the statement of financial position date to reflect the best estimate at that time of the obligation in question.

A lease is defined as a contract, or part of a contract, that transfers the right to use an asset (the underlying asset), for a period of time, in exchange for value.
At the beginning of each contract, it is assessed and identified whether it is or contains a lease. This assessment involves making judgements as to whether each contract depends on a specific asset, whether NOS obtains substantially all the economic benefits from the use of that asset and whether NOS has the right to control the use of the asset.
All contracts that constitute a lease are accounted for using a single on-balance model.
On the lease commencement date, NOS recognises the liability related to the lease payments (e.g., the lease liability) and the asset representing the right to use the underlying asset during the lease period (e.g., the right-of-use or ROU).
The interest cost on the lease liability and the depreciation of the ROU are recognised separately.
The lease liability is remeasured when certain events occur (such as a change in the lease period, a change in future payments resulting from a change in the reference index or the rate used to determine those payments). This remeasurement of the lease liability is recognised as an adjustment to the ROU.
The estimated costs of dismantling, removing assets and restoring the site in connection with leases are recognised in tangible fixed assets together with the works carried out (Note 2.3.3).
The Group recognises the right to use the assets on the lease commencement date (e.g., the date on which the underlying asset is available for use).
The right to use the assets is recognised at acquisition cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any new measurements of the lease liability. The cost of the right to use the assets includes the recognised value of the lease liability, any direct costs initially incurred and payments already made before the initial lease date, less any incentives received.
Unless it is reasonably certain that the Group will obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the right-of-use assets recognised is depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of its estimated useful life and the lease term.
Rights of use are subject to impairment.
The right-of-use assets depreciate on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the contractual term and the expected useful life of the asset.
If the lease asset is transferred to the Company at the end of the contract, or the cost reflects the possibility of exercising the purchase option, depreciation is calculated according to the asset's estimated useful life.
On the lease commencement date, the Group recognises liabilities measured at the present value of future payments to be made until the end of the lease.
Lease payments include fixed payments (including fixed payments in substance), less any incentives receivable, variable payments, dependent on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. Lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option, if it is

reasonably certain that the Group will exercise the option, and penalty payments for the termination of the contract, if it is reasonably certain that the Group will terminate the contract.
Variable payments that do not depend on an index or rate are recognised as an expense in the period in which the event giving rise to them occurs.
When calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate on the lease start date, if the implicit interest rate is not easily determinable.
The Group does not apply the practical expedient provided for leases of less than one year.
After the start date of the lease, the value of the lease liability increases to reflect the increase in interest and decreases due to the payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of the lease liability is remeasured if there is a change, such as a change in the lease term, in the fixed payments or in the decision to purchase the underlying asset.
NOS is covered by the special taxation regime for groups of companies, which covers all companies in which it holds, directly or indirectly, at least 75% of the share capital and which are simultaneously resident in Portugal and subject to Corporate Income Tax (IRC).
The remaining subsidiaries, which are not covered by the special taxation regime for groups of companies, are taxed individually, based on their respective tax bases and the applicable tax rates.
Income tax is recognised in accordance with IAS 12. When measuring the cost of income tax for the year, in addition to current tax, the effect of deferred tax is also taken into account, calculated using the liability method, considering temporary differences resulting from the difference between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their values in the consolidated financial statements, as well as tax losses carried forward existing at the date of the statement of financial position. Deferred tax assets and liabilities were calculated on the basis of tax legislation currently in force and legislation already published for future application. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised, unless the deferred tax asset results from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that:
As established in this standard, deferred tax assets are only recognised when there is reasonable certainty that they will be used to reduce future taxable income, or when there are deferred tax liabilities whose reversal is expected in the same period in which the deferred tax assets are reversed. These deferred tax assets are valued at the end of each period and adjusted according to their expected future use.
The amount of tax to be included in either current or deferred tax, which results from transactions or events recognised under equity items, is recorded directly under these same items and does not affect the result for the year.
In a business combination, the deferred tax benefits acquired are recognised as follows:

Estimates to deal with uncertainties regarding the acceptance of a given tax treatment by the tax authorities are recognised as deferred tax liabilities.
Portugal transposed Directive (EU) 2022/2523, of 15 December 2022, into national law by means of Law 41/2024, of 8 November ("the Law"), which introduced a worldwide minimum level of taxation for multinational company groups and large national groups into the Portuguese legal system, commonly known as "Pillar II".
Considering the rules approved in the Law and the best information available at the moment, NOS has carried out an assessment of the possible impacts of Pillar II for the NOS Group, estimating that the group will benefit from the supplementary tax exclusion in the initial phase of international activity, provided for in Article 44 of the Law, under the transitional regime, applicable for a period of 5 years (2024-2028).
Benefits granted to employees under share incentive plans or share options are recognised in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 2 - Share-based payments.
In accordance with IFRS 2, since it is not possible to reliably estimate the fair value of the services received from employees, their value is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments (own shares), according to their price on the date of attribution.
This cost is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period in which the service is provided by the employees, under Wages and salaries in the income statement, together with the corresponding increase in Other reserves in equity.
The accumulated cost recognised on the date of each financial statement until vesting reflects the Group's best estimate of the number of own shares that will be vested, weighted by the proportional time elapsed between the award and vesting. The impact on the income statement for each year represents the change in the accumulated cost between the beginning and the end of the period.
In turn, benefits granted on the basis of shares but settled in cash lead to the recognition of a liability valued at fair value on the statement of financial position date.
Share premium correspond to premium obtained from the issue or capital increases. In accordance with Portuguese commercial legislation, the amounts included under this item follow the regime established for the "Legal Reserve", e.g., the amounts are not distributable, except in the event of liquidation, but can be used to absorb losses, after all other reserves have been exhausted, and for incorporation into capital.

Own shares are recognised at their acquisition value as a deduction from equity. Gains or losses inherent in the sale of own shares are recorded under "Other reserves".
Portuguese commercial legislation establishes that at least 5% of the annual net profit must be used to increase the legal reserve, until it represents at least 20% of the share capital. This reserve is not distributable, except in the event of liquidation, but can be used to absorb losses, after all other reserves have been exhausted, and can also be incorporated into the Company's capital.
In accordance with IFRS 2 - "Share-based payments", the liability for medium-term incentive plans settled through the delivery of own shares is recognised as a credit under "Reserves for medium-term incentive plans", and this reserve cannot be distributed or used to absorb losses.
Hedging reserve reflects changes in the fair value of cash-flow hedging derivative financial instruments that are considered to be effective and cannot be distributed or used to absorb losses.
Reserve of own shares reflect the value of own shares acquired and follow a legal regime equivalent to that of the legal reserve.
This item includes realised profits available for distribution to shareholders and gains from increases in the fair value of financial instruments, financial investments and investment properties, which, in accordance with Article 32(2) of the CSC, will only be available for distribution when the items or rights that gave rise to them are sold, exercised, extinguished or liquidated.
Under Portuguese law, the amount of distributable reserves is determined in accordance with the company's individual financial statements, presented in accordance with IFRS. In addition, increases resulting from the application of fair value through equity components, including those from their application through net income for the period, can only be distributed when the elements that gave rise to them are sold, exercised, liquidated or when their use ends, in the case of tangible or intangible fixed assets.
The company recognises the liability, and the respective impact on equity, associated with the responsibility to distribute dividends when it is approved by the shareholders.
The main types of operating revenue of NOS subsidiaries are as follows:


The Group's revenue is based on the five-step model established by IFRS 15:
Thus, at the beginning of each contract, the NOS Group evaluates the promised goods or services and identifies, as a performance obligation, each promise to transfer to the customer any distinct good or service (or a package of goods or services). These promises in contracts with customers may be explicit or implicit, provided that such promises create a valid expectation in the customer that the entity will transfer a good or service to the customer, based on published policies, specific statements or customary business practices of the entity.
The NOS Group has defined internally that a performance obligation corresponds to the promise to deliver a good or service that can be used in isolation/separately by the customer and for which there is a clear perception by the customer of this good or service among the others available in each contract.
The main performance obligations are sales of mobile phones, telephones, hotspots, DVDs, cinema tickets, licenses and other equipment and the provision of mobile Internet, fixed Internet, mobile telephone, fixed telephone, television, consultancy, cloud/IT services and distribution of audiovisual rights, among others.
The provision of set-top-boxes, routers, modems and other terminal equipment at customers' homes and the respective installation and activation services were considered by the group not to correspond to a performance obligation, as they were necessary actions to fulfil the promised performance obligations.
In determining and allocating the transaction price of each performance obligation, NOS used the standalone prices of the promised products and services at the time the contract was entered into with the client to apportion the amount expected to be received on fulfilment of the contract.
Revenue is recognised when each performance obligation is fulfilled.
Revenue from the sale of equipment is recognised when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer and the value of the benefits can be reasonably quantified.
Revenue from subscriptions to telecommunications services (subscription to television, internet, mobile and fixed voice packages, alone or together) is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the subscription.
Revenue from equipment rental is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the rental agreement, except in the case of instalment sales which are accounted for as credit sales.
The Group awards its customers loyalty points for each call or top-up made, which can be exchanged for a limited period of time for discounts on the purchase of equipment.
In each reporting period, NOS recognises the current liability with the discounts to be attributed in the future. This liability is calculated on the basis of the amount of points awarded and not yet used, deducted from the estimate of points that will not be used (based on the history of use) and valued on the basis of the offer available at any given time for the use of points (specific catalogue).

The recognition of the liability constitutes a deferral of revenue (until the date on which the points are definitively converted into benefits), which is recognised when the discount is used, as an increase in revenue.
Revenue from traffic, roaming, data consumption, audiovisual content and others is recognised in the period in which the service is provided. The Group also offers a number of customised solutions, particularly to its corporate customers in the management of the telecommunications network, access, voice and data transmission, which are also recognised when the service is provided.
Income and expenses are not offset unless this is required or permitted by the IFRS, namely when it reflects the substance of the transaction or other event.
Income and expenses are offset in the following situations:
Discounts granted to customers under loyalty programmes are allocated to the entire contract to which the customer is loyal and are recognised as the goods and services are made available to the customer.
Amounts not invoiced are recorded based on estimates. Differences between estimated and actual amounts, which are usually not significant, are recognised in the subsequent period.
Penalty income is recognised under "Other income" as it is received.
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method, provided that economic benefits are probable.
The income and expenses of the various Group companies are recognised on an accruals basis, whereby they are recognised as they are earned or incurred, regardless of when they are received or paid.
The items " Accounts receivable - trade", "Accounts receivable - other", "Prepaid expenses", "Accrued expenses" and "Deferred income" include costs and income attributable to the current financial year and whose expenses and income will only occur in future financial years, as well as expenses and income that have already occurred but relate to future financial years and which will be charged to the results of each of those financial years, for the amount corresponding to them.
Costs attributable to the current financial year and whose expenditure will only be incurred in future financial years are estimated and recorded under "Accrued expenses", whenever it is possible to estimate the amount with great reliability, as well as when the expense will be incurred. If there is uncertainty regarding either the date of the outflow of resources or the amount of the obligation, the value is classified as Provisions (Note 2.3.14).

Transactions in foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate on the date of the transaction. On each closing date, open balances (monetary items) are restated using the exchange rate in force on that date. Exchange rate differences resulting from this update are recognised in the income statement for the year in which they were determined, under "Foreign exchange losses / (gains), net". Exchange rate variations generated on monetary items that constitute an extension of the investment denominated in the functional currency of the Group or the subsidiary in question are recognised in equity. Exchange differences on non-monetary items are recognised under "Other reserves and retained earnings" in equity.
The financial statements of subsidiaries denominated in foreign currency are translated using the following exchange rates:
Exchange differences arising from the translation to euros of the financial statements of subsidiaries denominated in foreign currency are included in equity under "Other reserves and retained earnings".
In the last quarter of 2017, the Angolan economy was considered a hyperinflationary economy in accordance with IAS 29 - Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies.
This standard requires financial statements prepared in the currency of a hyperinflationary economy to be expressed in terms of the measurement unit current at the date of preparation of the financial statements.
To summarise, the general aspects to be considered when restating the individual financial statements are as follows:
In addition, according to IAS 21, the restatement of consolidated financial statements is prohibited when the parent company does not operate in a hyperinflationary economy.
The translation coefficient used in the restatement of the individual financial statements of subsidiaries in Angola was the consumer price index (CPI) published by the National Bank of Angola.
In the last quarter of 2019, the Angolan economy ceased to be considered a hyperinflationary economy.

IAS 29 - Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies states that "when an economy ceases to be hyperinflationary, the company should treat the amounts expressed in the measuring unit current at the end of the previous reporting period as the basis for the carrying amounts in its subsequent financial statements". Thus, adjustments/revaluations made up to the end of the classification as a hyperinflationary economy are treated as a deemed cost and recognised in the same proportion as the assets that gave rise to them.
As at 31 December 2024 and 31 March 2025, assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies were translated into euros based on the following exchange rates of such currencies against the Euro, published by the Bank of Portugal.
| US Dollar | 1,0389 | 1,0815 |
|---|---|---|
| Kwanza of Angola | 947,4768 | 986,3280 |
| Pound Sterling | 0,8292 | 0,8354 |
| Mozambican Metical | 65,7300 | 68,4300 |
| Canadian Dollar | 1,4948 | 1,5533 |
| Swiss franc | 0,9412 | 0,9531 |
| Real | 6,4253 | 6,2507 |
In the quarters ended 31 March 2024 and 2025, the income statements of subsidiaries expressed in foreign currency were translated into euros based on the average exchange rates of the currencies of the respective countries of origin in relation to the Euro. The average exchange rates used are as follows:
| Kwanza of Angola | 909,2770 | 961,2176 |
|---|---|---|

Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense on an accruals basis, except in the case of loans incurred in the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that will take a substantial period of time (more than one year) to be in the desired condition, which are capitalised in the acquisition cost of the asset. Capitalised borrowing costs are determined taking into account the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation, by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditure relating to that asset. The capitalisation rate (in line with NOS' average financing rate) as well as the costs to be capitalised are calculated monthly, considering the monthly balance of eligible loans and the monthly amount of the qualifying asset in progress.
Investment property mainly includes buildings held to generate rents rather than for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes, or for sale in the ordinary course of business. These are measured initially at cost.
Subsequently, the Group uses the cost model for the valuation of investment property since use of the fair value model would not result in material differences.
An investment property is eliminated from the statement of financial position on disposal or when the investment property is taken permanently out of use and no financial benefit is expected from its disposal.

The Group measures part of its financial assets, such as available-for-sale and trading financial assets, and part of its non-financial assets, at fair value on the reference date of the financial statements.
Fair value measurement assumes that the asset or liability is exchanged in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell the asset or transfer the liability, at the measurement date, under current market conditions. Fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
Because different entities and different businesses within a single entity may have access to different markets, the principal or most advantageous market for the same asset or liability might be different, or even between businesses within the same entity, but it is assumed that they are accessible to the Group.
Fair value measurement uses assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants would use the asset in such a way as to maximise its value and use.
The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate to the circumstances and for which there is sufficient data to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable data and minimising the use of unobservable data.
All assets and liabilities measured at fair value or for which disclosure is mandatory are classified according to a fair value hierarchy, which categorises the data to be used in fair value measurement into three levels, detailed below:
Fair value measurement is classified entirely at the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement as a whole.
Assets and liabilities are offset and presented at net value when, and only when, the Group has the right to offset the recognised amounts and intends to settle on a net basis.
Personnel costs are recognised when the service is provided by employees, regardless of when they are paid. Here are some specifics regarding each of the benefits:

• Termination of employment: Termination benefits are due for payment when employment is terminated before the normal retirement date, when an employee voluntarily agrees to leave in exchange for these benefits and when restructuring costs are recognised. If there is an expectation that the benefits will not be settled in full within 12 months of the reporting date, they are discounted. Restructuring costs are recognised separately in the income statement.
The Group recognises these benefits when it can be demonstrated that it is committed to terminating the employment of current employees in accordance with a detailed formal plan for termination and there is no realistic possibility of withdrawal or these benefits are granted to encourage voluntary leaving. Whenever termination benefits fall due more than 12 months after the balance sheet date, they are discounted to their present value.
With the publication of Law 13/2023, as at 1 May 2023, it is no longer mandatory to make payments corresponding to 0.925% of each worker's basic salary and seniority to the FCT, which has been converted into a closed accounting fund.
According to the same law, the obligations relating to the FGCT corresponding to 0.075% are suspended for the duration of the Medium-Term Agreement to improve incomes, wages and competitiveness, which is expected to run until 2026.
The cash flow statement is prepared in accordance with the direct method. The Group classifies assets with a maturity of less than three months and for which the risk of a change in value is insignificant under cash and cash equivalents. For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents also include bank overdrafts, which are included in the statement of financial position under "Borrowings".
The cash flow statement is categorised into operating, investing and financing activities.
Operating activities include receipts from customers and payments to suppliers, employees and other related to operating activities. The item "Other receipts / (payments) relating to operating activities" includes the amounts received and subsequent payments relating to the non-recourse credit transfers coordinated by Banco Comercial Português and Caixa Geral de Depósitos, and these operations did not imply any change in the accounting treatment of the underlying credits or in the relationship with the respective customers.

The cash flows covered by investing activities include, in particular, acquisitions and disposals of investments in subsidiaries and receipts and payments arising from the purchase and sale of tangible fixed assets and intangible assets, among others.
Financing activities include payments and receipts relating to borrowings, interest payments and similar costs, leasing contracts, the purchase and sale of own shares and the payment of dividends.
Events occurring after the date of the statement of financial position that provide additional information on conditions that existed at that date are taken into account in the preparation of the financial statements for the period.
Events occurring after the date of the statement of financial position that provide information on conditions occurring after that date are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements if they are materially relevant.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires the Group's management to make judgements and estimates that affect the statement of financial position and reported results. These estimates are based on the best information and knowledge of past and/or present events and the actions that the company believes it may take in the future. However, on the date operations are realised, their results may differ from these estimates.
Changes to these estimates that occur after the date of approval of the consolidated financial statements will be corrected prospectively in the results, in accordance with IAS 8 - "Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors". The estimates and assumptions that present the greatest risk of giving rise to a material adjustment in assets and liabilities are presented below:
In determining which entities to include in the consolidation perimeter, the Group assesses the extent to which it is exposed, or has rights, to the variability in returns arising from its involvement with that entity and can seize them through the power it holds over that entity (de facto control).
The decision that an entity must be consolidated by the Group requires the use of judgement, assumptions and estimates to determine the extent to which the Group is exposed to the variability of returns and the ability to seize them through its power.
Other assumptions and estimates could lead to the Group's consolidation perimeter being different, with a direct impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In business combinations, the identification and measurement of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires a significant exercise of judgement part of on the , namely in determining the fair value of these elements on the date of acquisition. This process involves analysing in detail the specific characteristics of the assets and liabilities of the acquired entity, as well as the economic and sector context in which it operates.
The allocation of fair value implies the use of valuation techniques which may include, among others, the income method (based on discounted cash flows), the market method (based on comparable transactions)

and the replacement cost method. These methodologies require the definition of assumptions and estimates, namely discount rates, growth rates, operating margins, the useful life of identifiable assets, among others.
Given the degree of judgement involved and the sensitivity of the estimates used, small changes in the assumptions adopted can have significant impacts on the amounts recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position and on future results.
The determination of a possible impairment loss may be triggered by the occurrence of various events, such as the future availability of financing, the cost of capital or any other adverse changes in the technological, market, economic and legal environment, many of which are outside the Group's sphere of influence.
The identification and assessment of impairment indicators, the estimation of future cash flows and the determination of the recoverable value of assets involve a high degree of judgement on the part of management.
Goodwill is subject to annual impairment tests or whenever there are indications of a possible loss in value, in accordance with the criteria indicated in Note 8. The recoverable amounts of the cash-generating units to which goodwill is attributed are determined on the basis of value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of estimates by management.
The useful life of an asset is the period during which the Group expects an asset to be available for use and this must be reviewed at least at the end of each financial year.
Determining the useful lives of assets, the amortisation/depreciation method to be applied and the estimated losses arising from replacing them before the end of their useful lives, for reasons of technological and/or other obsolescence, is essential for determining the amount of amortisation/depreciation to be recognised in the income statement for each period.
These three parameters are defined according to management's best estimate for the assets and businesses in question, also taking into account the practices adopted by companies in the sectors in which the Group operates.
The capitalised costs associated with distribution rights for audiovisual content acquired for sale in the various exhibition windows are amortised over the maximum operating period set out in the respective contracts. In addition, these assets are subject to impairment tests whenever there are indications of changes in the pattern of future revenue generation underlying each contract.
Residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed periodically by the various Group companies and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
The Group determines the end of the lease as the non-cancellable part of the lease term, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain that this will be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain that this will not be exercised.
The Group has the option, under some of its lease contracts, to rent out its assets for additional periods. NOS assesses the reasonableness of exercising the option to renew the contract. That is, it considers all the relevant factors that create an economic incentive to exercise the renewal. After the start date, the Group

reassesses the end of the contract if there is a significant event or changes in circumstances that are within its control and affect its ability to exercise (or not exercise) the renewal option (for example, a change in business strategy).
The Group periodically analyses any obligations resulting from past events that should be recognised or disclosed. The subjectivity inherent in determining the probability and amount of internal resources needed to pay the obligations could lead to significant adjustments, either due to changes in the assumptions used or the future recognition of provisions previously disclosed as contingent liabilities.
Deferred tax assets are only recognised when there is strong certainty that future taxable profits will be available to use the temporary differences or when there are deferred tax liabilities whose reversal is expected in the same period in which the deferred tax assets are reversed. Deferred tax assets are valued by management at the end of each period, taking into account the Group's expected future performance.
The credit risk of the accounts receivable balances is assessed on each reporting date using a collection matrix, which is based on the history of past collections adjusted for the expected future evolution of collections, in order to calculate the uncollectability rate. The credit losses expected from accounts receivable are thus adjusted by the assessment made, which may differ from the actual risk that will be incurred in the future.
When determining the fair value of a financial asset or liability with an active market, the respective market price is applied. If there is no active market, which is the case for some of the Group's financial assets and liabilities, valuation techniques generally accepted in the market are used, based on market assumptions.
The Group applies valuation techniques for unlisted financial instruments, such as derivatives, financial instruments at fair value and instruments measured at amortised cost. The most frequently used valuation models are discounted cash flow models and option models, which incorporate, for example, interest rate curves and market volatility.
For some types of more complex derivatives, more advanced valuation models are used, containing assumptions and data that are not directly observable in the market, for which the Group uses internal estimates and assumptions.
During the quarters ended 31 March 2024 and 2025, no material errors, estimates or changes in accounting policies relating to previous years were recognised.

During the quarter ended 31 March 2024 there were no changes to the perimeter.
During the quarter ended 31 March 2025, the following changes occurred in the perimeter:
Following this acquisition, NOS carried out a preliminary assessment of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed through this operation, and therefore the purchase price allocation is still subject to change until the conclusion of the one-year period from the date of control, as permitted by IFRS 3 - Business Combinations. Nevertheless, the company does not expect any material changes as a result of possible alterations to the allocation made.

The breakdown of the net assets acquired and the goodwill recognised as part of this transaction is as follows:

The fair value of the net assets acquired was determined using various valuation methodologies for each type of asset or liability, based on the best information available. The main adjustments to fair value made as part of this process were: (i) rights of use with rents below market values (€7.8 million); (ii) portfolio of customer orders (€7.5 million); (iii) right to use intellectual property (€5 million); (iv) buildings/ own offices (€1.2 million); (v) liabilities contingent relating to present obligations (€1.2 million); and (vi) respective deferred taxes.
In the process of identifying the fair value of the assets, NOS used critical estimates, assumptions and judgements, such as: (i) office rental market rents; (ii) estimated margins on customer contracts; (iii) future inflation rates; among others. Various scenarios were considered in the different evaluations, which did not lead to significant variations in the fair value of assets and liabilities
Although these estimates are based on the best information available at the date of preparation of the consolidated financial statements, current and future results may differ from these estimates.

For the remaining assets and liabilities, no significant differences were identified between the fair value and the respective book value.
As is usually the case with business combinations, in this operation it was not possible to attribute part of the acquisition cost to the fair value of the assets identified and liabilities assumed, and this component was recognised as Goodwill and recorded under Intangible Assets. This goodwill is related to various elements which cannot be reliably isolated and quantified and includes, among others, synergies, a qualified workforce and technological capabilities.
In the quarter ended 31 March 2025, Claranet Portugal, S.A.'s contribution to net income is null. If Claranet (Claranet Portugal S.A. and its subsidiaries) had been consolidated since 1 January 2025, the net result for the quarter ended 31 March 2025 would have been approximately €194 thousand higher. The cash flows from the acquisition of Claranet Portugal, S.A., resulted in a payment of €152.9 million, included in the cash flows from Investing activities and the incorporation of Claranet's cash and cash equivalents, in the amount of €7.3 million, included under "Change of perimeter". With the exception of these movements, the cash flow statement for the first quarter of 2025 does not include any Claranet operations.
The purchase price may also be subject to future adjustments, namely under the contractually agreed final price calculation mechanisms. However, it is not expected that these adjustments will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
The business segments are as follows:

During the quarter ended 31 March 2025, the NOS group's revenue came primarily from the domestic market (telco and IT segment 99 % and Audiovisuals segment 90%).
In the quarter ended 31 March 2025, the NOS group recorded growth in revenues and EBITDA of 4.5% and 4.3%, respectively. The telco and IT segment grew by 4.6% and 4.3%, respectively, and the Audio segment by 1.5% and 3.1%.
In the quarter ended 31 March 2025, revenues of €0.693 million were eliminated between the telco and IT and audiovisuals segment, and €7.7 million between the audiovisuals segment and the telco segment.
In the quarter ended 31 March 2025, no material impairment losses were recognised on non-financial assets in any of the segments.
Transactions between segments are carried out under market conditions and terms, comparable to transactions with third parties.
As at 31 March 2025, fully consolidated foreign companies represent less than 1% of assets (31 December 2024: less than 1%) and their turnover is less than 0.1% of consolidated turnover.

Given their nature, the balances of taxes receivable and taxes payable were considered to be financial instruments not covered by IFRS 7. Similarly, the prepaid expenses and deferred income items were not considered in this breakdown as they are made up of balances not covered by IFRS 7.
The Group's Board of Directors believes that the fair value of the classes of financial instruments recorded at amortised cost and those recorded at the present value of payments does not differ significantly from their book value, given the contractual conditions of each of these financial instruments.

As at 31 March 2025, Accumulated amortisation and impairment losses includes accumulated impairment of €24.4 million (2024: €25 million).
The net amount of "Transfers and other" corresponds mainly to the transfer of assets to "Tangible fixed assets" (Note 7).
As at 31 March 2025, the item "Industrial property and other rights" essentially includes:
The increases in the quarter ended 31 March 2025 correspond primarily to the acquisition of rights to use films and series, in the amount of €3.7 million, software development of €16.2 million and development of set up boxes and applications of €2.9 million.

Goodwill was allocated to the cash flow generating units of each reportable segment, as follows:
| Telco and IT 564,799 |
679,009 |
|---|---|
| Audiovisuals 76,601 |
76,601 |
During the quarter ended 31 March 2025, NOS acquired the Claranet group, which resulted in goodwill of €114.210 million (Note 4), which has not yet been subject to impairment tests.
In 2024, impairment tests were carried out based on valuations using the discounted cash flow method, which support the recoverability of the carrying amount of goodwill. International accounting standards state that an asset cannot be recognised at an amount greater than its recoverable amount through use (present value of future cash flows) or sale. An asset is impaired when its book value exceeds its recoverable amount. This analysis should be carried out by cash-generating unit. The values of these evaluations are supported by historical performance and expectations of the development of the business and the respective markets, embodied in approved medium/long-term plans.
The following assumptions were made in these estimates:
| Discount rate (before tax) | 6.0% | 7.3% | 8.3% | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Evaluation period | 5 years | 5 years | 5 years | |
| EBITDA growth (2025-29)* | -3.7% | -3.4% | 4.3% | |
| Perpetuity growth rate | 2.0% | 2.0% | 2.0% |
* EBITDA = Operating Profit + Depreciation, Amortisation and Impairment Losses + Restructuring Costs + Losses/(Gains) on asset disposals + Other Non-Recurring Costs/(Gains) (CAGR - average)
In the telecoms and IT segment, the assumptions used are based on past performance, the evolution of the number of customers, the foreseeable evolution of regulated tariffs, current market conditions and expectations of future development.
In the cinema segment, the segment most affected by COVID-19, EBITDA growth is still justified by the prospect of activity recovering to near pre-pandemic levels.
The number of explicit years adopted in the impairment tests results from the degree of maturity of the respective businesses and market and has been determined on the basis of what is considered most appropriate for the valuation of each cash-generating unit.
Sensitivity analyses were carried out to changes in the discount rate and perpetuity growth rate of the various segments reported, of 1 percentage point and 0.4 percentage points, respectively.
In the telecommunications segment, sensitivity analyses were also carried out on variations in the operating variables RGU (Revenue Generating Unit), ARPU (Average Revenue Per User), EBITDA and CAPEX, in perpetuity, of approximately 5%.
In the cinema segment, sensitivity analyses were carried out to changes in the projected number of tickets sold, average revenue per ticket, EBITDA and CAPEX, in perpetuity, of approximately 5%.
In the audiovisual segment, sensitivity analyses were carried out to variations in the projected number of views, average revenue per view, EBITDA and CAPEX, in perpetuity, of approximately 5%.
These simulations did not reveal the need to increase impairment.
As at 31 March 2025, it was considered that the assumptions made in the impairment tests carried out in 2024 had not changed materially, and therefore there are no signs of impairment.

In the quarter ended 31 March 2025, the item "Tax proceedings" includes liabilities relating to ongoing tax proceedings, of which the following stand out:
• Transfer of future receivables: in the year ended 31 December 2010, NOS SA was notified of the Tax Inspection Report for the 2008 period, which considered that the addition of €100 million, relating to the initial price of future receivables assigned for securitisation, was undue in the calculation of taxable profit for the year. In this regard, considering the principle of accrual of taxable profit, NOS SA was subsequently notified of the undue deduction of the amount of €20 million in the calculation of taxable profit for the years 2009 to 2013. The basis for this correction is the understanding that the increase made in 2008 was not accepted because it did not comply with the provisions of Article 18 of the IRC Code. Therefore, also in the following years, the deduction corresponding to the revenues generated in those years, to comply with the annual amortisation contracted under the operation (20 million per year for 5 years) will have to be eliminated in the calculation of taxable profit. NOS SA challenged the decisions relating to the financial years 2008 to 2013. With regard to 2008, the Administrative and Fiscal Court of Oporto ruled unfavourably in March 2014, and the company has lodged an appeal.
In March 2021, NOS SA was notified of the judgement handed down by the Court of Appeal, which in turn dismissed it. NOS did not agree with the decision and filed an appeal with the Supreme Administrative Court.
In May 2022, NOS was notified of the decision rejecting the review appeal, against which an appeal was lodged with the Constitutional Court, with suspensive effect on the proceedings. Alongside this appeal, an application was submitted to recognise the nullity of the decision, due to a lack of reasoning. Both applications were rejected and the means of reaction in the case relating to 2008 have been exhausted. The same outcome can be expected in the cases relating to 2009 to 2013.

As at 31 December 2024 and 31 March 2025, the amounts receivable and payable relating to corporate income tax are as follows:
| Estimated current income tax | (57,439) | (67,235) |
|---|---|---|
| Payments on account | 17,984 | 17,960 |
| Withholdings made to/by third parties | 1,253 | 1,569 |

As at 31 December 2024 and 31 March 2025, this item is broken down as follows:
| DareData | 2,000 | 2,000 |

| Other | 516 | 946 |
During the year ended 31 December 2024, NOS acquired a shareholding in the company DareData (Note 4), for the amount of € million. During the same period, changes in fair value were recorded in the TechTransfer Fund (in the amount of €251 thousand), in the company Seems Possible (in the amount of €584 thousand), in Reckon.ai (in the amount of €150 thousand), in the company SkillAugment (in the amount of €372 thousand) and in the company MindProber (in the amount of €390 thousand).
During the quarter ended 31 March 2025, changes in fair value were recorded in the companies Didimo (in the amount of €-28 thousand) and SkillAugment (in the amount of €-273 thousand), and the investments of the acquired Claranet Group were incorporated.
NOS and its subsidiaries are subject to Corporate Income Tax (IRC) at a rate of 20% on taxable income (taxable profit less any tax losses that may be deducted) plus a Municipal Surcharge at a maximum rate of 1.5% on taxable income, thus reaching an aggregate rate of around 21 ,5%. In addition, with the austerity measures laid down in Law 66-B/2012, of 31 December, and the respective additions by Law 114/2017, of 29 December, the State Surcharge is levied on taxable profit at 3% on the part of each company's taxable profit that exceeds €1.5 million up to €7.5 million, at 5% on the part of each company's taxable profit that exceeds €7.5 million up to €35 million, and at 9% on the part of each company's taxable profit that exceeds €35 million.

When calculating taxable profit, amounts not accepted (or which should be considered) for tax purposes are added to (or subtracted from) the accounting results. These differences between the accounting and tax results can be temporary or permanent.
NOS is taxed in accordance with the special regime for the taxation of groups of companies (RETGS), which includes companies in which it holds, directly or indirectly, at least 75% of the capital and which meet the requirements set out in Article 69 of the IRC Code.
The companies that are part of the RETGS in 2025 are as follows:
According to the legislation in force, tax returns are subject to review and correction by the tax authorities for a period of four years, with the exception of cases in which tax losses or other revenues have been assessed, namely tax benefits, the deadline for which coincides with the time limit for their utilisation. It should be noted that these deadlines may be suspended if inspections, claims or appeals are in progress.
The Board of Directors of NOS, supported by information from its tax advisors, believes that any revisions and corrections to these tax returns, as well as other tax contingencies, will not have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements as at 31 March 2025.
NOS and its subsidiaries recognised deferred taxes related to temporary differences between the tax and accounting bases of assets and liabilities, as well as tax losses carried forward existing at the date of the statement of financial position.

In the quarters ended 31 March 2024 and 2025, the movement in deferred tax assets and liabilities was as follows:

During the quarter ended 31 March 2024 , the NOS Group derecognised the deferred tax (against tax receivable) resulting from the consideration, for tax purposes, of the application of IFRS 16 following the publication of Circular 3/2024, which changes the previous understanding of the Tax Authority regarding the amortisation period of Right-of-Use assets, now allowing depreciation to take place over the period of the contract in situations where the lease does not transfer ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee at the end of the lease term, nor is it estimated that a purchase option will be exercised.
As at 31 March 2025, deferred tax assets relating to other provisions and adjustments refer mainly to:
Asset revaluations refer to the valuation of telecommunications licenses and other assets when Group companies merged.
As at 31 March 2025, deferred tax assets In the amount of €0.4 million were still to be recorded, corresponding predominantly to tax losses.
Deferred tax assets have been recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will arise in the future that can be used to recover tax losses or deductible tax differences. This assessment was based on the business plans of the Group companies, which are periodically reviewed and updated.
As at 31 March 2025, the tax rate used to calculate deferred tax assets relating to tax losses was 20% (2024: 20%). In the case of temporary differences, the rate used was 21.5% (2024: 21.5%) increased to a maximum state surcharge of 4.7% (2024: 4.7%) when temporary differences were considered likely to be taxed in the estimated period of application of this rate. Tax benefits, as they are deductions from taxable income, are considered at 100%, and in some cases their full acceptance is dependent on the approval of the authorities granting such tax benefits.
Under the terms of Article 88 of the CIRC, the company is additionally subject to autonomous taxation on a set of charges at the rates set out in the aforementioned article.
With the State Budget for 2023, tax losses no longer have a time limit for carrying them forward, but their deduction is limited to 65% of the taxable profit generated.

In the quarters ended 31 March 2024 and 2025, the reconciliation between the nominal and effective tax rates is as follows:
| Income before tax | 75,355 | 65,957 |
|---|---|---|
| Nominal tax rate | 22.5% | 21.5% |
| Permanent differences | (293) | (2,009) |

In accordance with Article 20(1)(b) and (c) and Article 21 of the Portuguese Securities Code, a qualified shareholding of the share capital and voting rights of NOS, SGPS, S.A. as calculated in the terms of Article 20 of the Portuguese Securities Code, is attributable to the following companies:

Note: the calculation of the percentage of voting rights does not take into account own shares held by the Company.
On 27 August 2013, following the completion of the merger between ZON and Optimus SGPS, the Company's share capital was increased by €856,404,278, corresponding to the total number of shares issued (206,064,552 shares), based on the closing stock market price on 27 August 2013. The capital increase is detailed as follows:
Additionally, the premium for issue of shares was deducted for an amount of €125 thousand related to costs with the respective capital increase.
On 21 April 2022, the Annual General Meeting of NOS SGPS shareholders, approved an increase of share capital, by incorporation of share premium, in the amount of €850,016,277.00, through the increase of the nominal value of the total shares representing the share capital in the amount of €1.65. The nominal value of each share is now €1.66.
As at 31 March 2025, the amount of the share premium is €4,202,356 (31 December 2024: €4,202,356).
The share premium is subject to the regime applicable to legal reserves and can only be used:
Commercial legislation on shares requires the existence of a non-distributable reserve of an amount equal to the purchase price of those shares, which becomes unavailable as long as those shares remain in the company's possession. In addition, the applicable accounting rules stipulate that gains or losses on the sale of own shares are recorded in reserves.

As at 31 March 2025, there were 2,896,860 own shares, representing 0.5623 % of the share capital (31 December 2024: 3,845,224 own shares, representing 0.7464% of the share capital). Movements during the quarters ended 31 March 2024 and 2025 were as follows:
| Acquisition of own shares | 1,110,419 | 3,887 |
|---|---|---|
| Distribution of own shares - share incentive scheme | (1,067,226) | (4,176) |
| Distribution of own shares - other remunerations | (28,891) | (113) |
| Distribution of own shares - share incentive scheme | (915,388) | (3,571) |
| Distribution of own shares - other remunerations | (32,976) | (129) |
Commercial legislation and the NOS articles of association establish that at least 5% of the annual net profit must be allocated to the legal reserve, until it represents 20% of the share capital. This reserve is not distributable except in the event of the liquidation of the Company, but can be used to absorb losses, after all other reserves have been exhausted, or to be incorporated into the share capital.
Under Portuguese law, the amount of distributable reserves is determined in accordance with the company's individual financial statements, presented in accordance with IAS/IFRS. Thus, as at 31 March 2025, NOS had reserves which, by their nature, are considered distributable in the amount of around €267 million, not including the net income for the year.
The General Meeting held on 12 April 2024 approved the Board of Directors' proposal to pay an ordinary dividend per share of Euro 0.35, in the amount of €180,306 thousand. The dividend attributable to own shares totalled approximately €1,348 thousand. The dividends were paid on 24 April 2024.

During the quarter ended 31 March 2025, the movements in Borrowings are detailed as follows:
As at 31 March 2025, NOS has a total of €400 million in bonds issued:
As at 31 March 2025, the net amount of these loans was increased by €1.753 thousand, corresponding to the respective interest and commissions, recorded under "Loans - accruals and deferrals".
As at 31 March 2025, the company has a debt of €565.0 million, in the form of commercial paper, of which €100.0 million issued under programmes without underwriting. The total amount contracted under underwriting programmes is €805 million, corresponding to 16 programmes with 6 banks, which bear interest at market rates. Commercial paper programmes with a maturity of more than 1 year in the amount of €505 million are classified as non-current (of which €302.0 million have been used as at 31 March 2025), since the company has the capacity to unilaterally renew current issues until the programmes mature and they are underwritten by the organiser. As such, the amount in question, despite having a current maturity, has been classified as non-current for the purposes of presentation in the statement of financial position.

As at 31 March 2025, the net amount of €3.082 thousand was deducted from the value of these loans, corresponding to the respective interest and commissions, recorded under Loans - accruals and deferrals.
Additionally, in March 2025, NOS contracted €100 million in commercial paper programmes, maturing in 2030, with three financial institutions - Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria (BBVA), Caixa Geral de Depósitos (CGD) and Banco Comercial Português (Millennium BCP).

i) As at 31 March 2025, the amount shown under "Ongoing legal proceedings and other" corresponds to provisions to cover various legal and other proceedings in progress;

ii) The amount shown under "Dismantling and removal of assets" essentially refers to estimated future costs, discounted to present value, according to the end of use of the spaces where the telecommunications towers and cinemas are located;
iii) The amount shown under "Contingent liabilities" refers to various provisions created for present nonprobable obligations, within the scope of the merger process by incorporation of Optimus SGPS (business combination), of which the following stand out: Extraordinary contribution to the compensation fund for the net costs of the universal electronic communications service (CLSU): The extraordinary contribution to the compensation fund for the net costs of the universal electronic communications service (CLSU) is provided for in Articles 17 to 22 of Law 35/2012 of 23 August. From 1995 until June 2014, MEO, S.A. (formerly PTC) provided the universal electronic communications service on an exclusive basis, having been appointed administratively by the government (e.g., it was chosen to provide this service without a tendering procedure). This is an illegal act recognised by the Court of Justice of the European Union, which in its decision of June 2014 ordered the Portuguese state to pay a fine of €3 million. According to Article 18 of Law 35/2012, of 23 August, the net costs incurred by the operator responsible for the universal service approved by ANACOM must be shared by the other companies offering public communications networks and electronic communications services accessible to the public in Portugal. NOS is covered by this extraordinary contribution, and MEO has requested payment of the CLSU to the compensation fund for the various periods in which it was responsible for the service. In fact, according to the law, the compensation fund can be called upon to compensate for the net costs of the universal electronic communications service, including, as in this case, those relating to the period prior to the designation of the respective provider by tender, whenever, cumulatively, (i) there are net costs, that are considered excessive, the amount of which is approved by ANACOM, following an audit of the preliminary calculation and respective supporting documents, which are transmitted by the universal service provider and (ii) the universal service provider requests the Government to compensate the net costs that have been approved under the terms of the previous paragraph. Accordingly:
In 2013, ANACOM decided to approve the final results of the audit of the CLSU submitted by MEO for the 2007-2009 financial year, totalling around €66.8 million, a decision that was contested by NOS; In January 2015, the liquidation notes for NOS, S.A., NOS Madeira and NOS Açores for that period, totalling €18.6 million, were issued, which in turn were the subject of a legal challenge and for which guarantees were presented by NOS SGPS (Note 47), in order to avoid the promotion of the respective tax enforcement proceedings. The guarantees were accepted by ANACOM.
In 2014, ANACOM decided to approve the final results of the audit of the CLSU submitted by MEO for the financial years 2010 to 2011, totalling around €47.1 million, a decision that was also contested by NOS. In February 2016, the liquidation notes relating to NOS, S.A., NOS Madeira and NOS Açores were issued for that period, totalling €13 million, which were also contested and for which guarantees were again presented by NOS SGPS, in order to avoid the promotion of the respective tax enforcement proceedings. The guarantees were also accepted by ANACOM.
In 2015, ANACOM decided to approve the final results of the audit of the CLSU submitted by MEO for the financial years 2012 and 2013, totalling around €26 million and €20 million, respectively, a decision which, like the previous ones, was contested by NOS. In December 2016, the liquidation notes relating to NOS, S.A., NOS Madeira and NOS Açores were issued for that period, totalling €13.6 million, which were contested by NOS and for which guarantees have also been presented by NOS SGPS in order to avoid the promotion of the respective tax enforcement proceedings. The guarantees have also been accepted by ANACOM.
In 2016, ANACOM approved the results of the audit into the net costs of providing the universal service for the period from January to June 2014, provided by MEO, totalling €7.7 million, which NOS contested under the usual terms.
In 2017, NOS, S.A., NOS Madeira and NOS Açores were notified of ANACOM's decision on the entities required to contribute to the compensation fund and to set the amounts of the contributions relating to the CLSU to be compensated for the months of 2014 in which MEO was

still the Universal Service provider, which provides for a contribution totalling around €2.4 million for all these companies. In December 2017, the liquidation notes for NOS, S.A., NOS Madeira and NOS Açores were issued for that period, totalling approximately €2.4 million, which have been contested by NOS and for which guarantees have also been presented by NOS SGPS in order to avoid the promotion of the respective tax enforcement proceedings. The guarantees have also been accepted by ANACOM.
It is the opinion of the Board of Directors of NOS that these extraordinary contributions to the Universal Service required of it, which relate to the period prior to the designation of the universal service provider by tender, violate the Universal Service Directive. Furthermore, considering the legal framework and the law in force since NOS began its activity, the requirement to pay the extraordinary contribution violates the principle of protection of trust, recognised at a legal and constitutional level in the Portuguese legal system. For these reasons, NOS has challenged in court both the approval of the results of the audit of the net costs of the universal service for the pretender period and the settlement of each and every one of the extraordinary contributions demanded of it. In September 2021 and January 2024, the Lisbon Administrative Court dismissed the actions relating to NOS SA's administrative challenge of the results of the audit of CLSU 2007- 2009 and CLSU 2013, respectively, as unfounded, which NOS appealed in October 2021 and February 2024. In May 2024, the Lisbon Tax Court dismissed the challenges to the extraordinary contributions CLSU 2007-2009 of NOS Açores and NOS Madeira, as well as the CLSU 2014 of NOS, S.A., decisions which the companies in question appealed in December 2024. The Board of Directors, supported by the lawyers following the cases, is convinced that both the challenges and the appeals will be successful. iv) The amount shown under "Miscellaneous contingencies" refers to provisions to cover risks related to events/differences of a different nature which may result in cash outflows when resolved, and other probable liabilities resulting from different transactions carried out in previous years and for which the outflow of funds is probable, namely costs charged to the current period or to past periods, for which it is not possible to estimate with great reliability when the expense will be realised.

5) Sporting Clube de Braga - Futebol, SAD
All contracts start in the 2019/2020 season and last for up to 7 seasons, with the exception of the contract with Sporting Clube de Braga - Futebol, SAD, which lasts for 9 seasons.
In May 2016, NOS and Vodafone agreed to make available to each other, for several sports seasons, sports content (national and international) held by the companies, directly by the transferring party or indirectly through the transfer to third-party content distribution channels or models, with the aim of ensuring that both companies have the rights to broadcast the clubs' home matches, as well as the rights to broadcast and distribute sports channels and club channels, the rights to which are held by each of the parties at any given time. The agreement took effect as of the 16/17 sports season, guaranteeing that NOS and Vodafone customers can access the Benfica channel and Benfica's home matches, regardless of the channel on which these matches are broadcast.
Taking into account the possibility of extending the agreement to other operators, in July 2016 MEO and Cabovisão signed up to it, putting an end to the lack of availability of the Porto Canal on the NOS grid and guaranteeing that all pay-TV customers in Portugal can have access to all relevant sports content, regardless of the telecoms operator they use.
As part of the agreement with the other operators, which is being made in some cases directly and in others through the transfer to third-party channels in return for the reciprocal provision of rights, the overall costs are shared out according to telecoms retail revenues and pay-TV market shares.
| Estimated cash-flows with the contract signed by NOS with the sports entities* | 113.9 | 250.2 |
|---|---|---|
| NOS estimated cash-flows for the contracts signed by NOS (net amounts charged to the operators) and for the contracts signed by the remaining operators |
63.2 | 138.8 |
| * Includes rights to broadcast matches and channels, advertising and others. |
The estimated cash flows are summarised as follows:
Considering that, within the framework of the agreement signed with the other operators, the risks and rewards associated with the contracts with the clubs are shared between the operators, the agreement was considered a collaborative arrangement, which is why the revenue (with the operators) is offset against the expenses with the clubs.
NOS and Vodafone Portugal signed a nationwide infrastructure development and sharing agreement on 29 September 2017. This partnership allows the two operators to make their commercial offers available under the shared network from the beginning of 2018.
The agreement covers the reciprocal sharing of dark fibre in approximately 2.6 million homes, in which each of the entities shares with the other an equivalent value of investment, e.g., they share similar assets, assuming that the two companies maintain total autonomy, independence and confidentiality in the design of commercial offers and management of the customer database and in the choice of technological solutions that they decide to implement, with no impact on the Group's financial statements (in accordance with IAS 16, this exchange of similar non-monetary assets will be presented on a net basis).
The partnership has also been extended to the sharing of mobile infrastructure, where a minimum of 200 mobile towers has been agreed.
On 22 October 2020, NOS Comunicações S.A. and NOS Technology, on the one hand, and Vodafone Portugal, Comunicações Pessoais, S.A., on the other hand, celebrated a set of agreements regarding the sharing of mobile network support infrastructure (passive infrastructures such as towers and poles) and active mobile network elements (active radio equipment such as antennas, amplifiers and remaining equipment).
These agreements have the following characteristics:
Each party will be able to decide to develop its mobile communications network with total freedom and autonomy.
These agreements aim to make NOS' investments more efficient, to capture value by exploiting synergies and to develop the country's mobile network more quickly and in a more environmentally responsible way, providing greater benefits for its customers and other stakeholders.
Sharing mobile infrastructures is also an important contribution to increasing territorial cohesion and digital inclusion, essential factors for sustainable development throughout the country.

( 1) The amount relating to Sales and Services Rendered includes, in the quarter ended 31 March 2025, around €15 million (31 March 2024: €13 million), which is not recorded in the consolidated accounts under Sales and Services Rendered, as it is related to the agreement signed with the operators, which represents a sharing of costs and benefits, so that the revenue is offset against the costs with the clubs (Note 43.2) ( 2) The company ceased to be a related party in July 2024.
The Company regularly enters into transactions and contracts with various entities within the NOS Group. These transactions were carried out under normal market terms for similar transactions and are part of the day-to-day business of the contracting companies.
As a result of the large number of related entities with low-value balances and transactions, the amounts relating to balances and transactions with entities whose amounts are less than €100 thousand have been grouped under "Other related parties".


beginning of 2017. At the end of the last quarter of 2020, ANACOM notified NOS of the accusation, charging it with 4 very serious administrative offences and 1 serious administrative offence relating respectively to (i) the failure to inform customers of the right to terminate their contract free of charge as a result of price changes, with (ii and iii) the alleged failure to give adequate notice of price updates and (iv) adequate notice, and also with (v) failure to provide information requested by ANACOM, at which point ANACOM did not impose any fine, except for the serious administrative offence. In the case of the latter, ANACOM gave NOS the possibility of settling the fine at the minimum, in the amount of €13 thousand, which NOS proceeded to do. NOS submitted a Written Defence on 29 January 2021 and, in November 2022, was notified of ANACOM's decision ordering it to pay a fine of €5.2 million. NOS challenged the decision in court and, in September 2023, the court reduced the amount of the fine imposed on NOS to €4.2 million. NOS appealed this decision to the Court of Appeal, which reduced the fine to €3.5 million. In May 2024, NOS appealed this judgement to the Constitutional Court, pending further developments in the case.
iii. On 17 July 2020, NOS was notified by the AdC of an infringement notice (indictment) relating to digital marketing on the google search engine, accusing the operators MEO, NOS, NOWO and Vodafone of concertation, for the period between 2010 and 2018, but without identifying a specific fine. It is not possible at this time to estimate the amount of any fine. NOS challenged the nullity of the evidence taken, which in July 2022, the Lisbon Court of Appeal confirmed, a decision that has become final. NOS requested the AdC to delete the seized emails, which the AdC refused on the grounds of an appeal. In July 2023, the Supreme Court of Justice rejected the appeal lodged by the AdC and, in the same month, NOS informed the Competition, Regulation and Supervision Court of this decision. NOS opposed the conclusion of supervening uselessness of the dispute, but the Court came to the same conclusion and the NOS appealed the decision. In January 2024, NOS was notified by the AdC that the emails affected by the declaration of prohibition of evidence had already been deleted from the case file and, in February 2024, NOS requested for other documentary elements to be deleted from the case file, but to date, no decision has been handed down on this matter. In view of the information available to the Board of Directors, it is the Board's conviction that it will be able to demonstrate the various arguments in favour of its defence. On 15 December 2021, NOS was notified by the AdC of a notice of unlawfulness (accusation) concerning practices related to the advertising service in automatic recordings, in which it accuses NOS, other operators and a consultant of concerted behaviour in the advertising market in television recordings. NOS submitted its written defence and subsequently challenged the nullity of the evidence taken. By decision of August 2023, a set of evidence that had been seized was eliminated, which led to the declaration of the supervening uselessness of the dispute as regards the request for the cancellation of emails submitted by the NOS. In January 2024, NOS was notified by the AdC that the emails affected by the declaration of prohibition of evidence had already been deleted from the case file. In September 2024, the AdC notified the NOS of the final decision on the elements that make up the case, a decision that resumes the investigation phase of the case and which includes a request for new elements from NOS. In December 2024, the AdC notified NOS of a new unlawful act notice (accusation) repeating the previous accusation, to which NOS presented its defence in 2025. In view of the information available to the Board of Directors, it is the Board's conviction that it will be able to demonstrate the various arguments in favour of its defence.
In the course of the financial years 2003 to 2024, some companies in the NOS Group were subject to tax inspections for the financial years 2001 to 2021. Following the successive inspections, NOS SGPS, as the parent company of the Tax Group, as well as the companies that were not part of the Tax Group, were notified of the corrections made by the Tax Inspection Services in terms of Corporate Income Tax, VAT and Stamp Duty and of the corresponding additional payments. The total value of the outstanding notices, plus interest and charges, amounts to €39 million. These notices have been contested and the respective legal proceedings are underway.

Based on the opinions received from the attorneys in the cases and tax consultants, the Board of Directors remains confident of a favourable outcome, which is why these cases are still before the court. Nevertheless, in accordance with the principle of prudence, the Group's level of exposure to these lawsuits is periodically assessed in the light of developments in case law, and the provisions set up for this purpose are adjusted accordingly. The Group has provided bank guarantees required by the Tax Authorities as part of these processes, as mentioned in Note 43.
In 2011, MEO brought a claim for €10.3 million against NOS SA in the Lisbon Judicial Court, as compensation for alleged undue portability by NOS SA between March 2009 and July 2011. NOS SA contested the claim and the court initially ordered an expert's report, which has since been cancelled. The hearing for discussion and judgement took place in the first half of 2016, and in September of the same year a judgement was handed down, partially upholding the action, on the grounds that it was not possible to prove the existence of undue portability, which the Court ruled should be restricted to those that did not correspond to the holder's wishes. To this end, it ordered NOS to pay MEO approximately €5.3 million, a decision which NOS appealed to the Lisbon Court of Appeal. MEO, for its part, complied with the judgement and did not appeal against the part of the judgement that acquitted NOS. The Lisbon Court of Appeal, in the first quarter of 2018, confirmed the decision handed down by the Court of First Instance, except with regard to interest, in which it upheld NOS's claim that interest should be calculated from the date of service of the lawsuit and not from the due date of the invoices. NOS filed an exceptional appeal with the Supreme Court of Justice (STJ), which found the facts proved to be insufficient to resolve the merits of the case. As a result, the STJ ordered the court under appeal to broaden the facts. The case was referred to the Court of First Instance and, in November 2019, the Court granted the parties the possibility of requesting additional evidence on the matter of broadening the facts, with NOS requesting an expert report and the repetition of witness evidence. As early as February 2020, the Court determined the need to obtain new evidence, which required analysing the information contained in all the portabilities on which the case was based and ordered expert evidence to be carried out for this purpose. The expert was appointed in October 2021. In December 2022, the expert asked to be relieved of his duties on the grounds that qualified non-judicial verification was unfeasible in view of the volume of documentation to be analysed, and in April 2023 the court ruled that, in view of the expert's request, the trial should be limited to the presentation of written arguments. The parties submitted their written arguments in June and NOS, in addition, filed an autonomous appeal against this order, believing that the court's decision violated the STJ judgement. In July 2023, despite the fact that no additional evidence had been presented as determined by the STJ, the Court issued a new decision ordering NOS to pay €5.3 million. In October 2023, NOS appealed this decision to the Lisbon Court of Appeal and, in April 2024, this Court revoked the lower 's order and ordered the examination of witnesses to the factual matter added following the judgement handed down by the Supreme Court of Justice in March 2019.
In 2011, NOS SA brought a claim against MEO in the Lisbon Judicial Court for compensation for damages suffered by NOS SA as a result of MEO's violation of the Portability Regulation, specifically the large number of unwarranted refusals of portability requests by MEO between February 2008 and February 2011. The court ordered technical and economic-financial expert evidence to be carried out, and the expert reports were completed in February 2016 and June 2018, respectively. MEO argued that the economic and financial expert report was invalid, which was rejected. After the trial, in May 2022, the court ruled partially in favour of NOS, condemning MEO to pay €7.9 million, a decision challenged by MEO and NOS through appeals in October 2022. At the end of March 2023, the Lisbon Court of Appeal overturned the initial decision and ordered that the facts of the case be broadened, which will require new trial sessions. This decision also recognised that the other issues raised by both NOS and MEO should not be considered as they were deemed to be prejudiced. Following the judgement of the Lisbon Court of Appeal, MEO appealed to the Supreme Court of Justice regarding the request to waive (or reduce) the remaining court fee. The Supreme Court confirmed the judgement of the Lisbon Court of Appeal, which had rejected MEO's request, taking into account its conduct. Recently, the Court notified the Parties that, due to the impediment of the Judge in charge of the case, it is expected that the trial hearing will not take place in the first quarter of 2025. It is the opinion of the Board of Directors, supported by the lawyers following the case, that there is a good chance,

formally and substantively that NOS SA will be able to win the case, not least because MEO has already been condemned for the same offences by ANACOM
In March 2018, NOS was notified of a legal action brought by DECO against NOS, MEO and NOWO, seeking a declaration that the obligation to pay the price increases imposed on customers at the end of 2016 was null and void. In April and May 2018, the operators, including NOS, filed a defence. The claim was set at €60,000. Following the discussion and trial sessions in 2022, NOS filed an appeal against the court decision that dismissed the production of testimonial evidence, which was upheld by the Lisbon Court of Appeal. Trial sessions were held in June and September 2024, followed by the closing arguments phase. The case has since been adjourned at the request of the parties. The Board of Directors considers that the arguments put forward by the plaintiff are unfounded, which is why it is believed that the outcome of the case should not have a significant impact on the Group's financial statements.
In November 2022, NOS was served with a legal proceeding filed by Citizens Voice - Consumer Advocacy Association ("Citizens Voice"), which makes a number of claims related to the automatic activation of predefined volumes of mobile data once the volume of data included in the monthly fee contracted by customers has been used up. Citizens Voice is specifically asking for (i) a judicial declaration of the illegality of this practice, as it believes that it violates a set of national and European rules, (ii) recognition of the right of customers to refuse to contract these services, (iii) the return of sums paid in this regard over the last few years by NOS customers, as well as (iv) the payment of compensation in the amount of €100 to each customer for alleged moral damage resulting from this practice. In December 2022, NOS filed its defence, invoking Citizens Voice's illegitimacy to file the action, namely because of the existence of a profit interest, and furthermore defending the lawfulness of the practice and its transparency and clarity for its customers. The Court has notified the parties that it will rule on the NOS's allegations regarding illegitimacy, pointing out that the case may end if the issues raised by the NOS are upheld. The Board of Directors considers that the arguments put forward by the plaintiff are unfounded, which is why it believes that the outcome of the case should not have a significant impact on the Group's financial statements.
As at 30 June 2024, there were outstanding balances with national operators, recorded under Accounts receivable - trade and Accounts payable - trade, in the amounts of €37,139,253 and €43,475,093, respectively, resulting from a dispute between NOS SA and, essentially, MEO - Serviços de Comunicações e Multimédia, S.A. (formerly TMN-Telecomunicações Móveis Nacionais, S.A.), relating to the undefined interconnection prices for 2001. In the part of this dispute with MEO that was before the courts, the outcome was entirely favourable to NOS SA and has become final. In March 2021, MEO filed a new lawsuit against NOS, claiming that the price of interconnection services between TMN and Optimus for 2001 should be set at 55\$00 (€0.2743) per minute. After NOS filed a defence challenging MEO's claim, NOS was acquitted by court decision. MEO appealed this decision to the Court of Appeal, the Supreme Court of Justice and, later, the Constitutional Court. In May 2024, MEO's appeal was rejected and the decision not to admit it was confirmed. As the process was concluded, in the quarter ended 30 June 2024, NOS derecognised these outstanding balances, generating a gain recognised under Other non-recurring costs / (gains), net, in the amount of €8.6 million.

The General Meeting of 23 April 2014 approved the Regulation on Short- and Medium-Term Variable Remuneration, which establishes the terms of the Share Award Plan ("NOS Plan"). This plan is aimed at employees working above a certain level, and the rights are exercised three years after they are awarded, provided that the employee remains with the company during this period.
As at 31 March 2025, the open share allocation plans are as follows:
| Plan 2023 | 1,100,932 |
|---|---|
| Plan 2024 | 1,244,271 |
During the quarter ended 31 March 2025, the movements under the Plans are detailed as follows:
| Awarded | - | - | - | - |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vested | (892,394) | (10,929) | (12,065) | (915,388) |
| Cancelled/Extinguished/Corrected (1) | (350,225) | (1,014) | (1,140) | (352,379) |
(1) Includes, predominantly, corrections made to the dividend paid, shares relating to exceptionally cash-settled plans and shares relating to employees leaving without the right to receive shares.
The costs of share plans are recognised over the period between the grant and the exercise of the shares. The liability for the plans is calculated using the share price on the grant date of each plan, for plans settled in shares, or on the closing date, for plans settled in cash, and the liability is recognised under Reserves and Accrued expenses, respectively.
As at 31 March 2025, the outstanding liability relating to these plans is €4,114 thousand and is fully recorded under Reserves.
The costs recognised over the previous years and in the quarter ended 31 March 2025, and the respective liability, are as follows:
| Costs recognised in previous years for plans open as at 31 December | 7,304 |
|---|---|
| Costs of plans in the period (vested) | (3,386) |
| Costs of cash-settled plans | (1,393) |
| Costs recognised in the period and other | 1,589 |
On 4 April 2020, SONAECOM, SGPS, S.A. ("Sonaecom"), owner of 50% of the share capital of ZOPT, SGPS, S.A. (hereinafter "ZOPT"), was informed by its subsidiary of the communication received from the Central Criminal Investigation Court of Lisbon (hereinafter "Court") to proceed with the preventive seizure of 26.075% of the share capital of NOS, SGPS, S.A., corresponding to half of the shareholding in NOS held by ZOPT and, indirectly, by the companies Unitel International Holdings, BV and Kento Holding Limited, controlled by Mrs. Isabel dos Santos. Under the terms of this decision, the seized shares are deprived of the right to vote and the right to receive dividends, the latter of which must be deposited with Caixa Geral de Depósitos, S.A. to the order of the Court. The other half of ZOPT's stake in NOS' share capital, corresponding to the same percentage of 26.075% - and which, at least in line with the criteria used by the Court, embodies the 50% held in ZOPT by SONAECOM - was not seized, nor were the rights inherent to it subject to any limitation. On 12 June 2020, ZOPT was authorised by the Central Criminal Investigation Court of Lisbon to exercise the voting rights corresponding to the 26.075% of NOS' share capital that had been preventively seized by order of that Court. Following the communication of 4 April 2020, ZOPT filed third-party motions, which the investigating judge rejected in June 2020 on the grounds that the Portuguese courts had no jurisdiction to hear and decide them, a decision which, having been appealed by ZOPT, was revoked by the Lisbon Court of Appeal (TRL) in February 2021. In November 2021, the investigating judge, hearing the merits of the case, dismissed the third-party objections filed by ZOPT, a decision which, according to ZOPT, was appealed to the Court of Appeal. After being admitted in February 2022, in June 2022, ZOPT was notified of the decision to dismiss the appeal. In September 2022, Sonaecom informed that at the ZOPT General Meeting it was decided to amortise Sonaecom's shareholding in that company and to repay the additional capital contributions made by Sonaecom, for a consideration that includes the delivery of shares representing 26.075% of the share capital of NOS. As a result of this amortisation, which was subject to the applicable legal procedures, Sonaecom ceased to be a shareholder in ZOPT, which is now wholly owned by Unitel International Holdings, BV and Kento Holding Limited, companies controlled by Mrs. Isabel do Santos. In December 2022, Sonaecom, upon completion of the legal procedures, informed that it directly held 134,322,269 ordinary shares in NOS, corresponding to 26.07% of the share capital. It also informed that this shareholding is also attributable to the entities that are in a control relationship with it, namely SONTEL, BV, Sonae Investments, BV, SONAE, SGPS, S.A. and EFANOR INVESTIMENTOS, SGPS, S.A.
The Board of Directors of NOS is not aware of any developments in the preventive seizure process referred to above.
To date, Sonaecom holds 192,527,188 ordinary shares corresponding to 37.37% of NOS' share capital.

The General Meeting held on 11 April 2025 approved the Board of Directors' proposal to pay an ordinary dividend per share of Euro 0.35 and an extraordinary dividend of Euro 0.05, totalling €206,065 thousand. The dividends were paid on 24 April 2025.
As of the date of approval of this document, there have been no other relevant subsequent events that should be disclosed in this report.

We have performed a limited review of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of NOS, SGPS, S.A. (the Group), which comprise the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of 31 March 2025 (that presents a total of 3,557,106 thousand euros and total equity excluding non-controlling interests of 1,136,873 thousand euros, including a consolidated net profit excluding non-controlling interests of 59,006 thousand euros), the condensed consolidated statements of income by nature, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended, and notes to these condensed consolidated financial statements.
Management is responsible for the preparation of this condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union, and for the implementation and maintenance of an appropriate internal control system to enable the preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Our work was performed in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" and further technical and ethical standards and guidelines issued by the Portuguese Institute of Statutory Auditors ("Ordem dos Revisores Oficiais de Contas"). These standards require that we conduct the review in order to conclude whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed consolidated financial statements are not prepared in all material respects in accordance with the IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union.
A limited review of condensed consolidated financial statements is a limited assurance engagement. The procedures that we have performed consist mainly of making inquiries and applying analytical procedures and subsequent assessment of the evidence obtained. The procedures performed in a limited review are substantially less that those performed in an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISA). Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on these condensed consolidated financial statements.
