Consolidated Turnover reached €3.9m in 1Q25, slightly above 1Q24, driven by the positive contribution from Media business.

The net cash position stood at €170.6m at the end of 1Q25, €4.1m above YE24. This performance was driven by (i) the €8.0m of investments in Bright Pixel's portfolio; and (ii) the positive operating cash-flow, financial activity and taxes amounting to €12.0m.

NOS reported its 1Q25 results to the market on May 6th, which were marked by a strong performance of its core Telco business and the completion of the acquisition of Claranet Portugal, a significant milestone in strengthening its value proposition in the B2B segment.

The value of the investment held in NOS is measured using the equity method.
At the general meeting of NOS in April 2025, shareholders approved the payment of an ordinary dividend of 0.35 euros per share was approved, relating to the 2024 financial year. The dividend was paid on 24 April and result in a receipt of 77 million euros by sonaecom.
Sonaecom holds directly 192,527,188 shares in NOS, representing approximately 37.37% of its share capital and 37.65% of the voting rights.
Taking into account the percentage of ownership, directly attributable to Sonaecom, it was analysed in the light of what is described in IFRS 10, whether Sonaecom could exercise control over NOS. From this analysis, it was concluded that Sonaecom does not control the aforementioned company, insofar as it does not hold the majority of the share capital and voting rights of NOS and, that it is not clear that i) it is possible for Sonaecom to make decisions for itself only and ii) that the existence of a majority contrary to its intentions is unlikely. In view of the above and given that Sonaecom has the opportunity to participate in NOS' decision-making processes, we are facing a situation of significant influence, with the respective investment being classified as "Investments in associates" and recorded in Sonae's consolidated accounts using the equity method.
For the period ended 31 March 2025, it was considered the assumptions used in the impairment tests carried out in 2024 did not have material changes.
The evolution in provisions occurred during the first 3 months of 2025 compared to 31 December 2024 was as follows:
Regarding the challenge by NOS, S.A., NOS Açores, and NOS Madeira to the acts of Anacom concerning the assessment of the "Taxa Anual de Atividade", by ruling of 29 October 2024, the Constitutional Court declared the unconstitutionality, with general binding force, of the rules of the aforementioned Ordinance 1473-B/2008, of 17 December, as amended by Ordinance 296- A/2013, of 2 October, insofar as they determine the incidence and the rate to be applied in relation to providers of electronic communications networks and services included in tier 2, for violation of the constitutional reserve of formal law. During the years ended 31 December 2023, 2024, and the quarter ended 31 March 2025, NOS recognised income of 38.5 million euros, 78.1 million euros and 5.5 million euros, respectively (Note 39), corresponding to the amount relating to the pending impugnation processes whose assessments were issued under the rules deemed unconstitutional.
Regarding the July 2020 notification from the Competition Authority concerning digital marketing on the Google search engine, 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 NOS Board's conviction that it will be able to demonstrate the various arguments in favour of its defence.
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 of NOS 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 NOS Group's financial statements.
