"I am pleased to share that, halfway through the deployment of the Group's three-year strategic growth plan, we have made significant progress on our key initiatives, exceeding the targets set in January 2024, while maintaining a steady focus on driving profitable growth. Following a remarkable performance in Fiscal 2024, the Group has sustained its robust momentum in First Half Fiscal 2025. Our recently closed M&A deals have also begun to contribute positively and reinforce our global market position. As a whole, our financial performance for the semester remains impressive, achieving low double-digit organic total revenue growth, despite a very high comparison base, while continuing to deliver outstanding Recurring EBITDA margin expansion and a consistently strong Recurring cash conversion rate.
The unwavering focus and engagement of our teams as well as the resilience of our business model strengthen my confidence in the Group's ability to drive value for all our stakeholders over the long-term. Based on the strong execution and performance achieved in the first semester, and while closely monitoring the macro-economic environment in today's uncertain and volatile context, we upgrade our Fiscal 2025 Recurring EBITDA margin objective while reconfirming our organic total revenue growth and recurring cash conversion full-year objectives."
Aurélien Sonet, Chief Executive Officer of Pluxee

4 Net financial cash position as at August 31, 2024.
On September 25, 2024, after receiving clearance from Spanish regulatory authorities, the Group completed the 100% acquisition of Cobee, an employee benefit digital-native player operating in Spain, Portugal and Mexico, and serving more than 1,500 clients and 100,000 employee consumers with a broad multi-benefit offering. The acquisition of Cobee strengthens Pluxee's position in the growing and underpenetrated Spanish employee benefit market. The combination of Pluxee and Cobee's respective talent, capabilities, and technology creates a complete, competitive, and attractive solution in Spain, Portugal, and Mexico, broadening the Group's existing benefit offering and enhancing its tech capabilities at global scale.
The majority of the transaction price was paid on the closing date, while the agreement also provided for two earn-outs, subject to the achievement of defined milestones that have been designed to align all stakeholders' interests. The first earn-out was paid after the closing date of First Half Fiscal 2025, in March 2025. The acquisition was fully funded from existing cash resources with limited impact on Group leverage.
The transaction was accounted for in accordance with IFRS 3 "Business Combinations". The impacts on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements, determined based on a preliminary purchase price allocation, are described in note 4.1 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for First Half Fiscal 2025.
In November 2024, Pluxee entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of Benefício Fácil, a Brazilian tech company that processes and distributes employee mobility solutions for public transportation to more than 10,000 clients representing 300,000 employee users.
With this acquisition, Pluxee continues expanding in the mobility benefit sector and enhancing its comprehensive suite of employee benefits in a key market. Together, Pluxee and Benefício Fácil will further leverage the existing transport operators' network and expand the penetration of mobility benefits in Brazil.
This acquisition follows a long-standing partnership between both companies.
The transaction was completed in March 2025 (subsequent event described in 1.6.1), following the approval by the Central Bank of Brazil. As such, the acquisition has no impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for First Half Fiscal 2025. Benefício Fácil will be consolidated for the first time in the second half of Fiscal 2025.
The annual General Meeting of shareholders held on December 18, 2024 approved the dividend distribution for Fiscal 2024 of 0.35 euro per ordinary share. The dividend, representing a total amount of 51 million euros, was paid to Pluxee N.V. shareholders on December 24, 2024.
The Group obtained banks approval on October 2, 2024 to extend the original maturity of the 650 million euro revolving credit facility by an additional year, which now matures in October 2029 and may be further extended for an additional one-year period at Pluxee's option.

| Total Revenues | 635 | 593 | 10.8 % | 2.8 % | -6.5 % | 7.2 % |
Total Revenues amounted to 635 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, reflecting a +10.8% Organic growth rate, on track with the Group's financial objective for Fiscal 2025 (i.e. low double digit Organic revenue growth).
Total revenues reported growth stood at +7.2% for the semester, including a -6.5% currency impact mainly due to operations in Brazil and Türkiye and a +2.8% scope effect related to the integration of Santander Brazil's employee benefit activity and the acquisition of Cobee.
Total revenues continued to benefit from positive business momentum over the semester despite a high comparison base in the second quarter, notably in Continental Europe. Performance over First Half Fiscal 2025 was driven by a solid trend in Operating revenue, which grew +10.1% organically, reaching 552 million euros, alongside a +16.2% organic growth in Float revenue, up to 83 million euros.

Total Revenues in Continental Europe grew +5.7% reported, i.e. +4.2% organically, to 279 million euros, accounting for 44% of Total Revenues.
Total Revenues in Latin America grew +2.7% reported, i.e. +12.1% organically excluding a -14.9% currency impact related mainly to the Brazilian real partly offset by a +5.5% scope effect. Total revenues
in Latin America reached 233 million euros, accounting for 37% of Total Revenues.

| Total Operating revenue |
552 | 518 | 10.1 % | 2.6 % | -6.1 % | 6.6 % |
Operating revenue for First Half Fiscal 2025 increased to 552 million euros, up +6.6% reported year-on-year, including a -6.1% currency effect, mainly related to Latin America, and a +2.6% positive scope effect. Organic growth reached +10.1% over the halfyear, reflecting a sustained pace of growth driven by the Employee Benefit line of service and a return to growth of Other Products and Services.
Employee Benefits generated 464 million euros in Operating revenue during First Half Fiscal 2025, growing organically by +11.8% and contributing 84% to Operating revenue for the semester. Performance in Employee Benefits was driven by increasing business volumes issued, particularly in Latin America and Rest of the World, along with a steady rise in the average take-up rate for First Half Fiscal 2025 which grew by more than +10 basis points year-on-year to 4.8%. This improvement in the take-up rate reflects the Group's strong commercial focus and continuously enhanced value proposition to both clients and merchants.
Other Products and Services generated Operating revenue of 88 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, growing +1.3% organically and representing 16% of Operating revenue.
Other Products and Services saw a return to revenue growth, driven by solid trends in both Reward & Recognition solutions and Public benefit programs, offsetting the impact of a contract discontinuation in Chile (Latin America) until December 2024. Part of this contract has been regained from March 2025, paving the way for a sustained revenue growth in this service line in the second semester.

| Total Operating revenue |
552 | 518 | 10.1 % | 2.6 % | -6.1 % | 6.6 % |
Operating revenue continued to show low doubledigit growth trajectory over First Half Fiscal 2025, despite facing a significantly high comparison base in the second quarter, particularly in Continental Europe.
In Continental Europe, Operating revenue grew by +5.0% organically, i.e. +6.7% reported, reaching 248 million euros. This trend reflected (i) the high comparison base due to the exceptionally strong +19.5% organic growth achieved in Q2 Fiscal 2024, partly driven by one-off benefit programs such as the Purchasing Power program in Belgium, as well as (ii) the impact of the current macro-economic environment in certain specific sectors and countries over First Half Fiscal 2025.
In Latin America, Operating revenue reached 204 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, growing +12.3% organically, excluding a -14.8% currency impact mainly related to operations in Brazil and, to a lesser extent, in Mexico, which was partly offset by a +4.9%
Float revenue reached 83 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, growing +16.2% organically, i.e. +11.7% reported, including a +4.2% scope effect and a -8.7% currency effect.
The sustained growth in Float revenue was partially driven by the expansion of the Float base, supported by the continuous increase in business volumes issued, particularly in Latin America and Rest of the World. The Group also benefited from opportunities arising from rising interest rates in certain countries. In Latin America, interest rates showed an upward trend overall, notably due to the progressive rise in the Selic in Brazil during First Half Fiscal 2025. Meanwhile, in Türkiye, the depreciation of the Turkish Lira was offset by an additional interest rate hike. Conversely, as expected, a downward trend in interest rates was observed in Continental Europe, following cuts, particularly by the European Central Bank.
scope effect. This performance reflected (i) a sustained increase in the Net retention rate in the region, driven by a further rise in average face value and a reduced churn rate, as well as (ii) a strong trend in new client acquisitions. The growth progressively accelerated over the semester, as the impact of the discontinuation of a Public benefit contract in Chile faded away.
In Rest of the world, Operating revenue amounted to 99 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, up +18.5% organically, excluding a -2.8% currency impact mostly related to the evolution of the Turkish Lira. In Türkiye, the Group has continued to take advantage of the hyperinflationary environment ensuring additional increases in average face value across its client portfolio and further penetrating the meal benefit segment by signing new contracts. Performance in the region was also driven by the growing adoption and usage of Pluxee solutions across less penetrated countries.
To mitigate interest rate fluctuations and secure Float revenue in the concerned countries, the Group continued to seize investment opportunities, opting for longer tenor or fixed rates, tailored to each country's financial market conditions. Overall, the average investment yield increased to 6.0% in First Half Fiscal 2025, compared to 5.5% in First Half Fiscal 2024.
In Fiscal 2025, the continuous expansion of the Float base and exposure to countries with high interest rates as well as the optimization of the Group's investments, should more than offset the expected evolution of interest rates in some other countries, particularly in Continental Europe.
Consequently, based on the latest available forward curves, the Group expects Float revenue to grow by mid-to-high single digit in Fiscal 2025.

Reported growth |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Recurring EBITDA | 225 | 201 | 22.5 % | -0.1 % | -10.4 % | 12.0 % |
Recurring EBITDA reached 225 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, growing +22.5% organically, i.e. +12.0% reported year-on-year including a -10.4% currency effect and an insignificant scope effect due to the offsetting of the positive contribution of Santander Brazil's employee benefit activity by the effect of the Cobee acquisition on Recurring EBITDA in the first-year post-acquisition.
Recurring EBITDA margin increased by +260bps on an organic basis, reaching 36.4% at constant Fiscal 2024 rates. On a reported basis, Recurring EBITDA margin stood at 35.4%, representing a +151bps
increase year-on-year, including currency and insignificant scope impacts.
The substantial expansion of the Recurring EBITDA margin, supported by all regions, was fueled by ongoing operational improvements combining further operating leverage and initial efficiency gains as well as the completion of the one-off effects related to the Spin-off. Additionally, it benefited from a further positive contribution from Float revenue coming from Latin America and Rest of the world.

Operating profit (EBIT) amounted to 158 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025 compared to 120 million euros for First Half Fiscal 2024.
Depreciation, amortization and impairment stood at -54 millions of euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, including the impact of the recent M&A transactions, notably the amortization of (i) the intangible asset recognized in the second half of Fiscal 2024 for the exclusive distribution agreement of Pluxee's Employee Benefit solutions in the Santander network and (ii) the intangible assets recognized as part of purchase price allocations for Santander Brazil's employee benefit activity and Cobee business combinations.
Other operating income and expenses amounted to -13 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, primarily reflecting one-off residual charges related to the finalization of the IT carve-out as part of the Spin-off for a total amount of -9 million euros, as well as the costs related to business combinations for -2 million euros.

Financial income and expenses amounted to -3 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, compared to -10 million euros for First Half Fiscal 2024. This positive change of +7 million euros was primarily due to the one-off costs associated with the Group's refinancing, which impacted only First Half Fiscal 2024.
Interest income generated on non-Float related cash and cash equivalents amounted to 22 million euros.
Gross borrowing cost totaled -24 million euros, made up of (i) interest on bonds issuance amounting to -21 million euros, (ii) interest related to lease liabilities amounting to -2 million euros and (iii) costs related to the Revolving Credit Facility amounting to -1 million euros.
Other financial income and expenses mainly reflected the impact from hyperinflation accounting treatment in Türkiye.
Profit before tax amounted to 155 million euros for First Half Fiscal 2025 compared to 110 million euros for First Half Fiscal 2024.
Income tax expense amounted to -48 million euros for First Half Fiscal 2025 compared to -42 million euros for the First Half Fiscal 2024. The effective tax rate decreased to 31% in First Half Fiscal 2025, from 38% which reflected the one-off costs related to the Spin-off incurred during First Half Fiscal 2024.
Net profit increased by +55.5% reported, rising by +38 million euros, to 106 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, compared to 68 million euros in the First Half Fiscal 2024.
This substantial growth was driven by a significant increase in Total revenues and the continued expansion of the Recurring EBITDA margin, along with a gradual reduction in the Other operating income and expenses. Additionally, Financial income and expenses as well as the effective tax rate gradually normalized compared to Fiscal 2024, which had been impacted by the Spin-off.
Net profit attributable to the Group, after -9 million euros of non-controlling interests, reached 97 million euros, reflecting a 47.3% reported growth in First Half Fiscal 2025.

Adjusted net profit attributable to the equity holders of the parent was 107 million euros for First Half Fiscal 2025 compared to 96 million euros for First Half Fiscal 2024.
The variation in the Adjusted net profit, Group share, was primarily due to the strong growth in Recurring EBITDA in First Half Fiscal 2025 and, to a lesser extent, to the lower financial income and expenses which were partly offset by slightly higher income tax expense partly due to the effective tax rate.

Pluxee underscores the importance of efficient cash management and liquidity strategies to support its operations and long-term growth. While the Group leverages internal cash pooling, it also benefits from a combination of long-term bonds and credit facilities, including Revolving Credit Facility and a Commercial Papers program, which reflects its commitment to maintain financial stability and diversify funding sources.
As of February 28, 2025, Pluxee's Net financial cash position, excluding Restricted cash, amounted to 1,045 million euros after the payment for the acquisition of Cobee and the dividends related to Fiscal 2024. It compared to 1,054 million euros as of August 31, 2024.
As of February 28, 2025, Cash and cash equivalents amounted to 1,471 million euros, net of -29 million euros in Bank overdrafts, while Current financial assets, amounted to 828 million euros, bringing the overall total to 2,270 million euros (excluding 975 million euros in Restricted Cash), compared to 2,230 million euros at August 31, 2024 (excluding 973 million euros of Restricted cash). During First Half Fiscal 2025, the Group continued to run a flexible investment strategy, capitalizing on tenure and fixed vs. floating rate, tailored to each country's financial market conditions.
The Group operates within a centralized cash management framework to efficiently manage its liquidity requirements. For eurozone countries, it leverages internal euro cash pooling arrangements at the Group treasury level to optimize cash flow management.
Two bonds of 550 million euros each with respectively 2028 and 2032 maturities were issued in Fiscal 2024 to refinance the bridge loan set up for the Spin-off and repay short-term borrowings owed to the Sodexo Group.
The Group also relies on a revolving credit facility of 650 million euros, now maturing in October 2029, following bank approval on October 2, 2024, to extend the original maturity date by one additional year. At the Group's option, the facility may be extended for an additional one-year period. As of February 28, 2025, no amount had been drawn from the facility.
In addition, Pluxee announced in March 2025 the launch of its first program for the issuance of Negotiable European Commercial Paper (NEU CP) with a limit of up to 400 million euros (see section 1.6.2 Strengthening of short-term credit facilities).
The Group benefits from a BBB+ rating by S&P with a stable outlook, in line with strong investment-grade standards, and is confident that its financial resources are adequate to meet its current needs.

(1) Including a positive impact from a regulatory change in Brazil on Change in Working Capital contributing +48 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2024. Excluding this one-off effect, Change in working capital would have amounted to 169 million euros, Recurring free cash flow to 180 million euros and Recurring cash conversion rate to 89% in First Half Fiscal 2024.
(2) Including mainly the repayment of lease liabilities and the cancellation of (i) non-cash charges and (ii) Other operating income and expenses impacting Working capital.
Recurring free cash flow amounted to 171 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, compared to 180 million in First Half Fiscal 2024 excluding a positive impact from a regulatory change in Brazil (i.e. 228 million euros including this impact). The strong generation of Recurring free cash flow in First Half Fiscal 2025 was driven by a significant increase in Recurring EBITDA and a positive contribution from the Change in working capital, all while consistently executing the Group's investment strategy.
Capital expenditures amounted to -43 million euros, compared to -68 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2024. This temporarily represented 6.7% of Total revenues, due to the finalization of the IT carveout. Over the period, the Group continued to invest, with a particular focus on technology and data, expanding its customer-facing solutions and strengthening its tech assets to support future growth, while progressively operated a transition of its investment strategy towards operating expenses (OPEX) in areas such as Cloud migration, IT Service Management, and Process Automation.
Change in working capital stood at 38 million euros for First Half Fiscal 2025, to be compared to 218 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2024. This evolution in the Working capital reflected some oneoff effects related to (i) a change in regulation in Brazil (+48 million euros), (ii) the Purchasing Power program in Belgium (+46 million euros) and (iii) the postponed ordering of a large Public benefit program in Romania (+24 million euros).
Restricted cash variation amounted to -4 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, compared to 60 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2024. This evolution reflected the product mix over the semester leading to a lower share of restricted-cash regulated solutions issued in First Half Fiscal 2025, especially related to the one-off programs mentioned above issued in Belgium and Romania in First Half Fiscal 2024.
Income tax paid amounted to 45 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, reflecting the nearnormalization of the effective tax rate.
Recurring cash conversion rate stood at 76% in First Half Fiscal 2025, remaining consistent with the above 75% objective on average over Fiscal 2024 to 2026.

(1) Excluding the Restricted cash related to the Float standing at 975 million euros as of February 28, 2025, compared to 973 million euros as of August 31, 2024.
Net financial cash position as of February 28, 2025 stood at 1,045 million euros, compared to 1,054 million euros as of August 31, 2024.
The positive inflow from Recurring free cash flow, along with the contributions from the disposal of nonconsolidated investments and a favorable foreign exchange impact almost offset the effects of the Cobee acquisition and the dividends paid to shareholders for Fiscal 2024 and non-controlling interests.
As of February 28, 2025, Long-term financial liabilities amounted to 1,112 million euros, corresponding to the two bonds issued at the end of February 2024. Shortterm financial liabilities amounted to -52 million euros, compared to -22 million euros as of August 31, 2024. This increase reflected mainly the liability related to the
Cobee first earn-out payable in March 2025. Cash and cash equivalents amounted to 1,471 million euros, slightly up from 1,421 million euros as of August 31, 2024, while Current Financial Assets stood at 828 million euros compared to 814 million euros at August 31, 2024. Cash and cash equivalents were mostly invested in (i) interest-bearing bank accounts and (ii) short-term investments in bank term deposits, and to a lesser extent, (iii) monetary mutual funds. Current financial assets were mostly invested in bank term deposits, and to a lesser extent, government bonds.
In First Half Fiscal 2025, the Group continued to execute its flexible investment strategy, capitalizing on tenure and fixed vs. floating rates management, tailored to each country's financial market conditions.
Float-related cash increased to 2,892 million euros as of February 28, 2025, compared to 2,753 million euros as of August 31, 2024, i.e. an increase of +139 million euros in First Half Fiscal 2025, .
The growth of the Float base reflected the strong positive momentum in business volumes, which continued to progress quarter over quarter especially in Latin America and Rest of the World.
Non Float-related cash stood at 382 million euros as of February 28, 2025, compared to 455 million euros as of August 31, 2024. The change in Non-Float related cash over First Half Fiscal 2025 reflected mainly the dividend distribution to the Group's shareholders for Fiscal 2024 as well as the payment of the acquisition of Cobee, excluding earn-outs.

(2) Excluding -29 million euros of Bank overdrafts.
The strong performance delivered in First Half Fiscal 2025 as well as the resilience of the Group's business model in the current environment enable Pluxee to:
Based on the latest available forward curves, the Group expects Float revenue to grow by mid-to-high single digit in Fiscal 2025.
Financial objectives for Fiscal 2025 and 2026 also take into account the synergies expected from the deployment of the partnership with Santander and the integration of Cobee.

Related party transactions are identified and described in Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for First Half Fiscal 2025, note 10.5.
In March 2025, after receiving clearance from the Central Bank of Brazil, the Group completed the 100% acquisition of Benefício Fácil (transaction mentioned in 1.1.2.2). The majority of the transaction price was paid on the closing date, fully funded from existing cash resources with no impact on Group leverage.
Pluxee announced in March 2025 the launch of its first program for the issuance of Negotiable European Commercial Paper (NEU CP) with the following main characteristics:
This program enables the Group to continue the diversification of its funding sources with a flexible and costeffective short-term funding solution.

Adjusted basic or diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing Adjusted net profit (attributable to the equity holders of the parent) by respectively basic weighted average number of shares or diluted weighted average number of shares.
See section 1.2.1.9 Adjusted earning per share.
Adjusted net profit serves as the basis for calculating the dividend payout ratio. It consists of Net profit (attributable to Group equity holders) restated for the impact of items recognized in Other operating income and expenses, net of related income tax and related non-controlling interests.
See section 1.2.1.8 Adjusted net profit.
Float-related cash corresponds to the cash collected from clients in relation to the value loaded on cards or the issuance of digital solutions or paper vouchers, but not yet reimbursed to merchants (Float).
Float is calculated as Value in circulation and related payables minus Net trade receivables related to the float (corresponding to Trade receivables related to the float restated from Advances from clients).
See section 1.2.2.4 Float and non-Float related cash.
Net financial (debt) / cash position evaluates the Group's liquidity, capital structure and financial leverage. It consists of gross financial liabilities and lease liabilities, minus the Cash and cash equivalents (net of overdraft) and Current financial assets.
See section 1.2.2.3 Net financial cash position.
Non-Float related cash is calculated as Cash, Cash equivalents and Current financial assets excluding the cash collected from clients in relation to business volumes issued.
See section 1.2.2.4 Float and non-Float related cash.
Organic revenue growth is calculated as growth in the current period, calculated using the exchange rate for the prior fiscal period, and adjusted for the impact in the comparable prior period to include or remove the effect of acquisitions and/or divestitures that have occurred subsequent to that period.
See section 1.2.1.1 Total Revenues.
The Recurring cash conversion rate measures the ability of the Group to convert its Recurring EBITDA into Cash. The Recurring cash conversion rate consists of the ratio of Recurring free cash flow to Recurring EBITDA.
See section 1.2.2.2 Recurring free cash flow generation and cash conversion rate.
Recurring EBITDA is used to assess the performance of reported operating segments.
Recurring EBITDA is calculated by deducting the impact of amortization, depreciation and impairment of intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, and right-of-use assets relating to leases (as reported in the line Depreciation, amortization and impairment of the consolidated income statement) from the Recurring operating profit (Recurring EBIT) presented in the consolidated income statement.
See sections 1.2.1.2 Recurring EBITDA and 1.2.1.3 Operating profit (EBIT).
Recurring EBITDA margin consists of the ratio of Recurring EBITDA to Total Revenues.
See section 1.2.1.2 Recurring EBITDA.
The Recurring free cash flow measures the net cash generated from operations that is available for strategic investments (net of divestments), for financial debt repayment, and for payments of dividends to shareholders.
Recurring free cash flow is calculated as Net cash provided by operating activities as shown in the consolidated cash flow statement minus (i) Acquisitions of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, (ii) Repayments of Lease liabilities and (iii) Restatement of Other operating income and expenses on Net cash from operating activities.
See section 1.2.2.2 Recurring free cash flow generation and cash conversion rate.
Recurring Liquidity Generated by Operations (LGO) provides information to measure the net cash generated from operations regardless of the differences in regulations governing the issuance of digitally delivered services, cards and paper vouchers. Recurring Liquidity Generated by Operations is calculated as Recurring free cash flow plus the Change in restricted cash related to the Float.
See section 1.2.2.2 Recurring free cash flow generation and cash conversion rate.
Recurring operating profit (Recurring EBIT) corresponds to Operating profit (EBIT) before Other operating income and expenses.
See section 1.2.1.3 Operating profit (EBIT).
Further increase in the average amount charged on the cards, digitally delivered services or paper vouchers issued by the Group.
Business volume issued corresponds to the cumulative value of benefits issued by the Group on behalf of clients in the form paper vouchers, cards and digitally delivered services, and in respect of which commissions are charged to clients.
Business volume reimbursed corresponds to volumes reimbursed by the Group when such paper vouchers, cards and digitally delivered services are presented to merchants by employee consumers for payment, and in respect of which commissions are charged to merchants .
Capital expenditures (CAPEX) refer to "Acquisitions of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets" as shown in the consolidated cash flow statement.
Annualized business volumes issued from the new Employee Benefit client contracts signed over the period.
Face Value corresponds to the amount marked on the cards, digitally delivered services or paper vouchers issued by the Group.
Net retention measures Pluxee's ability to retain and expand its client base. It corresponds to the evolution in business volumes issued over the year excluding Public Benefits - resulting from: (i) the increase in average face value, number of employee consumers, cross-sell, (ii) the impact of client loss, and (iii) the full year impact of last-year cross-sell and loss. It is expressed as a percentage of business volumes issued over the prior year.
Portfolio growth corresponds to the increase in the number of employees and consumers from an existing client for a given product or service and cross-selling.
Take-up rate corresponds to the ratio between Operating revenue and business volume issued in Employee Benefits.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of the condensed consolidated financial statements.
As used herein, "Pluxee Group", "Pluxee" or "the Group" refers to Pluxee N.V. and all the companies included in the scope of consolidation. "Pluxee N.V." or "the Company" refers only to the parent company of the Group.
Pluxee N.V. is a public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap) registered in the Netherlands and having its place of management and sole registered location in France. Pluxee Group encompasses the former Benefits & Rewards Services business segment of Sodexo group, separated from Sodexo's On-Site Services through the distribution of Pluxee N.V. ordinary shares to Sodexo shareholders ("the Spin-off").
Pluxee Group was formed during the 2023 calendar year, pursuant to the following successive transactions:
complete separation from the other activities of the Sodexo group;
• in November 2023, the Company converted from Sodexo Asset Management 2 SAS into a Dutch private limited liability company (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) governed by Dutch law, with the name Sodexo Asset Management 2 B.V.
On January 31, 2024, the Company converted into a public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap), with the name Pluxee N.V. upon the Spin-off and listing of the Company.
Pluxee N.V.'s ordinary shares were admitted to listing and trading on Euronext Paris, a regulated market of Euronext Paris S.A. on February 1, 2024. On February 5, 2024, Sodexo S.A. distributed 100% of Pluxee N.V. shares held by Sodexo S.A. to its shareholders by way of a distribution in kind.
Pluxee is a global leader in employee benefit and engagement solutions. Through a tech-enabled employee benefit and engagement platform operating in an advanced digital ecosystem, the Group delivers a full suite of digital and innovative employee benefit solutions in 29 countries to help employees feel engaged, motivated, financially supported, and cared for.
Pluxee N.V. is a company with corporate seat in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and its place of management and sole registered location at 16, rue du Passeur de Boulogne, 92130 Issy-les-Moulineaux, France.
The French company Bellon S.A. is the Company's ultimate controlling entity.
The present condensed interim consolidated financial statements, starting from September 1, 2024 and ending February 28, 2025, were prepared under the responsibility of and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on April 16, 2025.
Their presentation currency is the euro, which is the Company's functional currency. They were prepared in thousands of euros and are presented in millions of euros, after rounding to the nearest million (unless otherwise specified). As a result, there may be rounding differences between the amounts reported in the various statements.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended February 28, 2025, have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting", as published by the IASB and adopted by the European Union. They do not include all the disclosures required for a complete set of annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Pluxee Group for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024.
The consolidation principles and accounting policies applied in the condensed financial statements for the six-month period ended February 28, 2025 are in conformity with those applied and detailed in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2024, except for requirements specific to interim reporting as per IAS 34, in particular in relation to the measurement of interim income taxes.
Income tax expense in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements is computed by applying an estimated average annual tax rate for the current fiscal year to each tax reporting entity's pretax profit for the first half of the year as adjusted, where applicable, for the tax effect of any specific events that may have occurred during the period. The resulting deferred tax charge or benefit is recognized in deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position.
The application of standards, amendments and interpretations effective as of September 1, 2024 did not have a material impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements:
Supplier Finance Arrangements (issued in May 2023).
The Group has not opted for early adoption of the amendments to standards endorsed by the European Union but with no mandatory implementation by September 1, 2024:
• amendments to IAS 21 "The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates": Lack of Exchangeability (issued in August 2023).
The Group does not anticipate the application of these amendments to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
The Group has not applied any standards, amendments, or interpretations that had not yet been approved by the European Union:
The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires the management of the Group and its entities to make estimates and assumptions which affect the amounts reported for assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities as of the date of preparation of the financial statements, and for revenues and expenses for the year, as well as for information provided in the notes to the financial statements.
Refer to note 2.3 "Use of critical accounting estimates, judgments and assumptions" in the Pluxee Group consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2024, for a discussion of critical accounting estimates, judgments and assumptions. During the six months ending February 28, 2025, there were no changes to identified critical accounting estimates, judgments and assumptions.
On September 25, 2024, after receiving clearance from Spanish regulatory authorities, the Group completed the 100% acquisition of Cobee, an employee benefit digital-native player operating in Spain, Portugal and Mexico, and serving more than 1,500 clients and 100,000 employee consumers with a broad multi-benefit offering. The acquisition of Cobee strengthens Pluxee's position in the growing and underpenetrated Spanish employee benefit market. The combination of Pluxee and Cobee's respective talent, capabilities, and technology creates a complete, competitive, and attractive solution in Spain, Portugal, and Mexico, broadening the Group's existing benefit offering and enhancing its tech capabilities at global scale.
The majority of the transaction price was paid on the closing date, while the agreement also provided for
In November 2024, Pluxee entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of Benefício Fácil, a Brazilian tech company that processes and distributes employee mobility solutions for public transportation to more than 10,000 clients representing 300,000 employee users.
With this acquisition, Pluxee continues expanding in the mobility benefit sector and enhancing its comprehensive suite of employee benefits in a key market. Together, Pluxee and Benefício Fácil will further leverage the existing transport operators' network and expand the penetration of mobility benefits in Brazil.
two earn-outs, subject to the achievement of defined milestones that have been designed to align all stakeholders' interests. Both earn-outs resulted in the recognition of a liability as of the acquisition date, in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 3 "Business Combinations" on contingent considerations arrangements. The first earn-out was paid after the closing date of First Half Fiscal 2025, in March 2025. The acquisition was fully funded from existing cash resources with limited impact on Group leverage.
The transaction was accounted for in accordance with IFRS 3. The impacts on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements, determined based on a preliminary purchase price allocation, are described in note 4.1.
This acquisition follows a long-standing partnership between both companies.
The transaction was completed in March 2025 (subsequent event described in note 10.3.1), following the approval by the Central Bank of Brazil. As such, the acquisition has no impact on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements. Benefício Fácil will be consolidated for the first time in the second half of Fiscal 2025.
The annual General Meeting of shareholders held on December 18, 2024 approved the dividend distribution for Fiscal 2024 of 0.35 euro per ordinary share. The dividend, representing a total amount of 51 million euros, was paid to Pluxee N.V. shareholders on December 24, 2024.
The Group obtained banks approval on October 2, 2024 to extend the original maturity of the 650 million euro revolving credit facility by an additional year, which now matures in October 2029 and may be further extended for an additional one-year period at Pluxee's option.
The main changes impacting goodwill during First Half Fiscal 2025 correspond to:
The table below shows the impact of the acquisition of Cobee on the consolidated statement of financial position. The fair values at the acquisition date assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are provisional.
| Acquisition-date | |
|---|---|
| (in million euros) | values |
| Identifiable intangible assets⁽¹⁾ | 40 |
| Financial assets | 4 |
| Trade receivables and other current operating assets | 3 |
| Cash and cash equivalents | 28 |
| Net deferred tax | (4) |
| Trade and other payables | (25) |
| Total Net identifiable assets | 47 |
| Cash | 121 |
| Liability for deferred and contingent considerations⁽²⁾ | 53 |
| Consideration transferred | 173 |
| Goodwill⁽³⁾ | 126 |
(1) Mainly include the provisional fair value of the client relationship and the Technology Intellectual Property.
(2) Mainly includes the liability recognized in relation to the two earn-outs based on the achievement of specific milestones. The first milestone, as contractually defined, was confirmed at the end of First Half Fiscal 2025 triggering the payment of the first earn-out of 30 million euros after the closing of the period, in March 2025. The payment of the second earn-out is contingent upon the delivery of key synergies to be achieved by the end of the first quarter of calendar 2027 at the latest. It also includes a 3 million euros deferred consideration paid during First Half Fiscal 2025.
(3) Goodwill is recognized as the difference between (i) acquisition price (the consideration transferred) and (ii) identifiable net assets at fair value. Goodwill recognized on the business combinations completed during First Half Fiscal 2025 principally represents the know-how and expertise of employees and revenue and cost synergies expected from the acquired companies.
Cobee subsidiaries, including primarily Perk Finance S.L. and Perk Finance Broker S.L. (Spain), Finutil S.A. de C.V. (Mexico) and Perk Finance Portugal, were integrated from the acquisition date, on September 25, 2024; their contribution to consolidated Total Revenues and to the consolidated Recurring operating profit (Recurring EBIT) of First Half Fiscal 2025 was not material.
Assets classified as held for sale as of August 31, 2024 corresponded to the non-consolidated investment in Resort Topco (accounted for as financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income), disposed during First Half Fiscal 2025 for 19 million euros. The fair value of this investment was remeasured as of August 31, 2024 based on the disposal price. Therefore, this transaction had no impact on Other Comprehensive Income in First Half Fiscal 2025.

Goodwill is allocated to and followed by country but is presented in the table above at the level of aggregations of segments for the sake of concision. Countries for which the carrying amount of goodwill is significant in comparison with the total carrying amount of goodwill (France and Brazil) are disclosed separately.
Goodwill is subject to annual impairment testing during the last quarter of the fiscal year, which are performed at country level (groups of CGUs at which goodwill is monitored). At the half-year closing, as prescribed by IAS 36 "Impairment of Assets", the Group determines whether there are any indications of impairment (in particular, a material deterioration in the performance between the budget and the most recent forecasts, a material increase in the discount rate and/or a severe downgrade in the estimated long-term growth rate) and, if this is the case, performs additional impairment tests.
The analysis and tests performed by the Group as of February 28, 2025 did not lead to the recognition of any goodwill impairment losses.

A summary of relevant current legal proceedings is provided below.
In 2015, the French company Octoplus and three hospitality unions filed several complaints with the French competition authority (Autorité de la concurrence) concerning several French meal benefit issuers, including Pluxee France S.A. (formerly Sodexo Pass France S.A.). Some of the complaints were combined with a request for interim measures pending the decision on the merits of the case. Following hearings of the parties concerned in April and July 2016, the French competition authority decided on October 6, 2016 to continue the proceedings without ordering any interim measures against Pluxee France.
On February 27, 2019, the prosecution services of the French competition authority sent their final investigation report to Pluxee France in which they confirmed the dismissal of all the alleged practices denounced by the complainants, including the alleged tariff practices (and in particular the allegedly high commission rates on the "acceptance" side of the market). However, they maintained two other objections on the basis of the case file: exchange of information and foreclosure of the meal benefit market through the Centrale de Règlement des Titres (CRT). In their response filed on April 29, 2019, Sodexo and Pluxee France contested both objections. On December 17, 2019, the French competition authority ruled against the meal benefit issuers and fined Pluxee France, jointly and severally with Sodexo S.A., 126 million euros for the two objections above. This decision was formally notified to Pluxee France and Sodexo S.A. on February 6, 2020. Both companies filed an appeal against the decision with the Paris Court of Appeal and the hearing was held on November 18, 2021. On November 16, 2023, the Paris Court of Appeal confirmed the conviction issued by the French competition authority. Vigorously contesting this decision, Sodexo and Pluxee France filed on December 18, 2023 an appeal in cassation, and therefore the proceedings are still ongoing. On January 28, 2025, the Versailles Court of Appeal issued a decision declaring the Paris Court of Appeal's decision as a false. In the months to come, the Court of Cassation will draw the consequences of the Versailles Court of Appeal's decision.
Pluxee France began payment of the related fine on December 15, 2021 through a monthly settlement plan until January 2023. An asset was recognized in Other operating receivables as a counterpart of the sums paid. Taking into consideration all of the abovementioned developments, the Group also recorded a provision of 127 million euros (including Pluxee's share of the CRT fine) in Other operating income and expenses as of August 31, 2023 as a counterpart of the related operating receivable booked.
Following the decision of the Paris Court of Appeal, the company Octoplus and several restaurants and other affiliated merchants, acting on their own names or through third party founders, have initiated several lawsuits against several meal vouchers issuers, including Pluxee France. They claim compensation for
On June 25, 2018, the Czech competition authority initiated an investigation against several Czech companies operating in the meal voucher sector, including Pluxee Česká Republika AS (formerly Sodexo Pass Česká Republika AS). The competition authority issued its report on October 12, 2021, accusing the companies under investigation of anticompetitive practices. On September 7, 2022, the Czech competition authority ruled against the meal voucher issuers and fined Pluxee Česká Republika AS 132 million Czech korunas (approximately 5.4 million euros as of August 31, 2023). Pluxee Česká Republika AS contested this first instance decision and appealed to the Chairman of the Czech competition authority. Payment of the fine was suspended pending the appellate proceedings.
During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2022, the Group was subject to a sophisticated fraud scheme in relation to its fuel and fleet activity in Mexico. Subsequently, the Group undertook a forensic investigation in order to better understand the fraud scheme and initiated legal proceedings, which are currently ongoing, to protect the Group's rights and interests. The Group has since worked to update and reinforce its controls over cardbased payment transactions.
On January 21, 2016, a tax audit was conducted by the Income Tax Department (TDS/withholding tax office). Tax Authorities reclaimed that Pluxee India (formerly Sodexo SVC India) should have applied TDS of 2% on the reimbursement of face value of Pluxee vouchers to merchants. As face value is not income, Pluxee India disagrees with this tax analysis.
The Income Tax Department passed orders dated March 21, 2016, for the previous eight years (Fiscal 2009 to Fiscal 2016) raising demand of tax to pay 3.54 billion Indian rupees (principal of 2.47 billion Indian rupees and interest of 1.07 billion Indian rupees), or approximately 38 million euros as of August 31, 2024. Pluxee India contested the decision and obtained "stay orders" to withhold the payment of any pre-deposit until resolution of the case.
On March 28, 2018, the Appeal was decided in favor of Pluxee India for the Fiscal 2012 only. The Tribunal held that the order of the Tax Department having been passed after expiry of two years, was barred by limitation and declared the same as "null and void". Further, for Fiscal 2009 to Fiscal 2011, orders have also been passed in favor of Pluxee India on the
alleged potential losses. Pluxee France considers those actions as meritless.
As part of the Spin-off transactions, Pluxee undertook to hold Sodexo harmless for losses in connection with the dispute with the French competition authority (see note 10.5 Related party transactions).
On October 24, 2023, the Chairman issued his decision and confirmed the first-instance findings with regards to the alleged anti-competitive practices, but cancelled the fine imposed on Pluxee Česká Republika AS and referred the case back to the first instance in this particular respect, mainly for technical legal reasons. Accordingly, there is currently no fine against Pluxee Česká Republika AS and the Czech competition authority is required to render a new decision, which remains subject to appeal. Nevertheless, Pluxee Česká Republika AS continues to contest the findings of the alleged anti-competitive practices and has challenged the Chairman's decision before the judicial review court. No provision has been made for this proceeding in consolidated financial statements as of February 28, 2025 (nor as of August 31, 2024).
The probable loss related to this case was assessed at 170 million Mexican pesos (approximately 7.6 million euros as of August 31, 2023) and accrued for such amount in the consolidated financial statements as of August 31, 2023. The probability-weighted value of the loss was reassessed based on the opinion of Group advisers, to 240 million Mexican pesos as of August 31, 2024 and February 28, 2025 (approximately 11.3 million euros).
grounds of limitation. Tax Authorities have appealed the decisions.
Regarding Fiscal 2013 to Fiscal 2016, Pluxee India received a positive decision from the Tribunal on the merits of the case on December 24, 2021, confirming that there was no obligation to deduct tax on payments to merchants.
The Income Tax Department has decided lately to lodge an appeal against an order passed by the Tribunal. The copies of appeal were served to Pluxee India in July 2023. The case is not yet listed for admission hearing.
Pluxee India considers, based on the opinion obtained from its tax advisors and unequivocally confirmed by the positive decision received from the Tribunal in December 2021, that there is a strong probability of winning the dispute with the Tax Authorities. As a result, no provision has been recognized for this dispute as of February 28, 2025 (nor as of August 31, 2024 and previous years).

Except as described in this section, there have been no governmental, legal or arbitration proceedings (including any such proceedings which are pending or threatened of which the Company is aware) which may have, or have had in the recent past, a significant effect on the Company's or the Group's financial position or profitability. The Group does not anticipate that any potential related liabilities will in the aggregate be material to its activities or to its consolidated financial position.

The first earnout was paid after the closing of First Half Fiscal 2025, in March 2025, for 30 million euros. The liability relating to the second earnout amounts to 19 million euros as of February 28, 2025 and is expected to be settled by the end of the first quarter of calendar 2027. It also includes a 3 million euros deferred consideration paid during First Half Fiscal 2025.
The syndicated revolving credit facility, which had an initial termination date of October 2028, was extended on October 2, 2024 until October 2029, and may be further extended for an additional oneyear period at the Company's option. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility may be made, in Euro or U.S. dollar, by the Company, Pluxee International SAS and certain other subsidiaries of the Company. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility will bear interest at a EURIBOR-indexed (or, in the case of borrowings in U.S. dollar, compounded SOFR-indexed) variable rate, plus an applicable margin initially set at 0.30% per annum and that will vary between 0.20% and 0.50% (for any term rate loan in euro) or between 0.40% and 0.70% (for any compounded rate loan drawn in U.S. dollar), depending on the credit rating of Pluxee.
The purpose of this facility is to fund the Group's general cash requirements.
No amounts had been drawn down on this facility as of February 28, 2025.
Financial liabilities break down as follows by maturity:
Upfront fees and other fees on this facility recognized in Gross borrowing cost amounted to 1.1 million euros as of February 28, 2025.
The revolving credit facility is subject to customary fees, including commitment fees, upfront fees, extension fees (to the extent the term of the revolving credit facility is extended), and a utilization fee.
This facility does not contain any financial covenants. It is subject to customary representations, undertakings, events of default and mandatory prepayment conditions, including upon a change of control of the Company.
In order to further diversify its funding sources, the Group announced in March 2025 the launch of its first program for the issuance of Negotiable European Commercial Paper (NEU CP) with a limit of up to 400 million euros (see subsequent event in note 10.3.2)

The 31.1% effective tax rate for First Half Fiscal 2025 has been derived from the estimated average annual effective tax rate for Fiscal 2025. This rate takes into account the mix of statutory rates applicable across the jurisdictions into which Pluxee operates and the integration of acquisitions (Ben Benefícios and Cobee).
Based on the current status of the regulations implementing the international tax reform (Pillar Two) in the jurisdictions where Pluxee operates, the impact on the Group's income tax liability is estimated as not material.
On February 5, 2025, the Board of Directors decided to grant Pluxee's senior management 595,744 free shares under a new performance share plan. The shares granted under this plan are subject to a 3-year service condition and performance conditions. The expense recognized in the First Half Fiscal 2025 income statement for this plan is not material.
In March 2025, after receiving clearance from the Central Bank of Brazil, the Group completed the 100% acquisition of Benefício Fácil (transaction mentioned in note 3.2).
The majority of the transaction price was paid on the closing date, fully funded from existing cash resources with no impact on Group leverage.
This program enables the Group to continue the diversification of its funding sources with a flexible
and cost-effective short-term funding solution.
Pluxee announced in March 2025 the launch of its first program for the issuance of Negotiable European Commercial Paper (NEU CP) with the following main characteristics:
There were no significant changes from August 31, 2024, in relation to other off-balance sheet commitments.
As of February 28, 2025 the French company Bellon S.A. held 83,337,156 (i.e., 43.38%) ordinary shares and 126,877,899 (i.e., 60.36%) voting rights of Pluxee N.V. (42.83% and 59.98% respectively as of August 31, 2024). Bellon S.A. is the active holding company owned by the Bellon family and the Company's ultimate controlling entity. Bellon S.A. intends to continue playing such a long-term dual role in Pluxee which ensures Pluxee's independence as well as it guarantees a long-term vision and strategy of sustainable and profitable growth.
The expense recognized in First Half Fiscal 2025 under the management and service agreement (convention d'animation et de prestations de services) between Bellon S.A. and Pluxee N.V. amounts to 1.1 million euros.
On December 24, 2024, Pluxee N.V paid to Bellon S.A. 22.1 million euros of dividends.

As of February 28, 2025, Sodexo S.A. is controlled by Bellon S.A., Pluxee N.V.'s ultimate controlling entity. All transactions between Pluxee Group and Sodexo S.A. or its subsidiaries are entered into on arm's length terms.
In connection with the Spin-off, Pluxee and Sodexo entered into the following separation and services agreements, with effect from February 1, 2024:
Other minor transition related issues are covered by local agreements between the respective subsidiaries of Sodexo and Pluxee.
The expense recognized in First Half Fiscal 2025 under the separation and services agreements between Sodexo S.A. and Pluxee amounts to 2.5 million euros. The other transactions between Pluxee Group and Sodexo S.A. or its subsidiaries are not material.

To: the shareholders of Pluxee N.V.
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the First Half Fiscal 2025 (February 28, 2025) ('condensed consolidated interim financial information for the six-month period ended 28 February 2025') of Pluxee N.V., Issy-les-Moulineaux, which comprises the condensed consolidated income statement, the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as at 28 February 2025, the condensed consolidated cash flow statement for the period then ended, the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. The board of directors is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this (condensed) interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting' as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with Dutch law including standard 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the entity. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial information for the six-month period ended 28 February 2025 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting' as adopted by the European Union.
