Pursuant to Article 17(1) of the Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 April 2014 on market abuse (market abuse regulation) and repealing Directive 2003/6/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Commission Directives 2003/124/EC, 2003/125/EC and 2004/72/EC, the Management Board of Orange Polska S.A. hereby provides selected financial and operating data related to the activities of the Orange Polska Capital Group ("the Group", "Orange Polska") for 3Q and 9M 2025.

Orange Polska reports strong results in 3Q 2025 underscored by 2.9% yoy growth of EBITDAaL

Key highlights of 3Q/9M 2025:

➢ Strong financial results:

  • 3Q revenues at PLN 3,329 million, +9.3% yoy fuelled by solid growth of key business engines: core telecom services (+6.5% yoy), IT&IS (+47% yoy) and wholesale (+13% yoy),
  • 3Q EBITDAaL at PLN 899 million, +2.9% yoy driven by strong direct margin and cost containment
  • 9M net profit at PLN 693 million, -2.7% yoy as growth of operating profit was offset by higher net finance costs (mainly due to higher debt following purchase of a licence for 5G spectrum)
  • 9M eCapex at PLN 1,127 million, -1% yoy, with lower capex spent offset by less proceeds from real estate disposals
  • 9M Organic Cash Flow at PLN 668 million, +1% yoy, due to higher cash from operating activity which was offset by less proceeds from real estate disposals. Strong cash generation in 3Q (+28% yoy).

➢ Good commercial momentum:

▪ Demonstrated by strong growth of customer bases of all key telecom services, especially in mobile handset category, where net customer additions of 108 thousand were the highest in more than four years, and solid growth of ARPO in convergence and fixed broadband-only offers

➢ Full-year guidance confirmed1

Commenting on 3Q 2025 performance, Liudmila Climoc, Chief Executive Officer, said:

"We delivered very solid operating and financial results in the third quarter, which are in line with the priorities set out in our Lead the Future strategy.

We are pleased with customer net additions, especially in mobile, where they were outstanding - exceeding 100,000, for the first time in few years. The clients chose Orange because we provide the best connectivity, as well as the most convenient and comprehensive convergent services for Polish households. Our commercial strategy, focused on acquiring new households, has been delivering consistent results, which is key to our long term value creation.

We are committed to continuously enhancing our offers by bringing top-tier technology and useful innovations that improve the customer experience and meet the expectations of even the most demanding clients. For example, since September, Orange customers can use the Mistral Le Chat Pro AI assistant free of charge for six months. Additionally, newly launched flagship smartphones now come with pre-installed Orange eSIMs, making us the first in Poland to do so, providing a seamless experience when switching to a new device.

Our success in the retail market is complemented by wholesale, which is one of our strategic growth engines, boosting the monetisation of our infrastructure. We are pleased that the recent business developments in this area will bring meaningful profits in the years to come.

Our commercial success has translated into strong financial results, with increased revenues and nearly 3% growth in EBITDAaL. The results achieved over the last nine months give us high confidence in reaching this year's guidance.

Lead the Future strategy has started well which makes me optimistic that it will deliver growth and create value for shareholders."

Results Review

3Q revenues at PLN 3,329 million, +9.3% yoy fuelled by growth of all business engines

Revenues totalled PLN 3,329 million in 3Q 2025 and were higher by PLN 284 million year-on-year (+9.3%) with all business engines contributing to this steep dynamics. Core telecom services (combined revenues of convergence, mobile-only and broadband-only) advanced by a strong 6.5% year-on-year, maintaining their high pace of growth as we benefit from the expansion of customer bases and ARPO. IT&IS revenues were up 47% year-on-year, driven by large contracts for integration services. Wholesale revenues (excluding legacy services) increased by 13% year-on-year as we capitalise on good demand for our infrastructure.

3Q commercial performance sustained good balance between volume and value growth

KPI ('000) 3Q 2025 3Q 2024 Change
convergent customers (B2C) 1,840 1,755 +4.8%
mobile accesses (SIM cards) 19,393 18,366 +5.6%
post-paid 15,011 13,996 +7.3%
o/w mobile handset 9,465 9,129 +3.7%
pre-paid 4,382 4,371 +0.3%
fixed broadband accesses (retail) 2,930 2,857 +2.5%
o/w fibre 1,685 1,495 +12.7%
KPI (PLN) 3Q 2025 3Q 2024 Change
convergent ARPO 130.5 126.0 +3.6%
mobile handset-only ARPO 30.5 30.3 +0.5%
fixed broadband-only ARPO 69.6 66.8 +4.1%

In 3Q 2025 we continued to successfully combine solid growth of customer volumes in all key services with improving average revenue that they generate (ARPO).

B2C convergent customer base increased by 18 thousand or 5% year-on-year. ARPO from convergent customers maintained solid dynamics growing by 3.6% year-on-year to PLN 130.5 owing to our value strategy, good demand for content and higher speed fibre offers.

Total fixed broadband customer base expanded by 17 thousand or 3% year-on-year. Fibre customers base expanded by 42 thousand or 13% year-on-year. Already 57% of our broadband customer base uses fibre. The legacy copper broadband technologies customer base continued to decrease and was lower by 32 thousand versus previous quarter. ARPO from broadband-only services stood at PLN 69.6 and grew by 4.1% year-on-year benefitting from our value strategy and growing share of fibre customers (fibre generates higher ARPO versus other technologies).

Mobile handset customer base increased 108 thousand or 4% year-on-year, which was the best result in more than four years. This strong growth was fuelled by all our B2C brands and offers and B2B. Mobile-only handset ARPO stood at PLN 30.5 and was up 0.5% year-on-year. This evolution reflects more than 5% yearon-year growth in the ARPO of the main Orange brand on the consumer market which was offset by a decline in B2B (owing to intense competition) and growing share of Nju and Flex brand customers in the mobile-only customer base, with lower ARPO versus the main Orange brand.

Pre-paid customer base increased 117 thousand in 3Q and was higher by 0.3% year-on-year owing to our effective marketing efforts. ARPO from pre-paid offers stood at PLN 17.3 growing 14% year-on-year as a result of our value strategy.

In PSTN fixed voice, net loss of lines stood at 27 thousand, a similar level to previous quarters reflecting structural market shift.

3Q EBITDAaL +2.9% yoy driven by strong underlying direct margin and cost containment

EBITDAaL for 3Q 2025 was PLN 899 million, up 2.9% year-on-year or PLN 25 million. Growth was mainly driven by direct margin (a difference between revenues and direct costs) which increased by 1.1% year-onyear (or PLN 21 million) or 4.2% year-on-year excluding impact of the accounting one-off (PLN +53 million) recorded in 3Q'24 which was related to capitalized connectivity costs from prior periods. This significant underlying growth of the direct margin resulted from strong revenue performance of high-margin core telecom services and wholesale. Indirect costs were PLN 4 million (1%) lower year-on-year reflecting higher efficiency of network operations, lower growth of labour costs, and lower outlays for advertising & promotion.

9M net income reflects growing EBITDAaL, timing of real estate sales and higher net finance costs

Net income for 9M 2025 was at PLN 693 million and was down 2.7% year-on-year (or PLN 19 million) as higher EBITDAaL was offset by lower gain on sale of our real estate, higher depreciation and higher net finance costs. Gain on sale of real estate was PLN 33 million lower year-on-year due to different timing of transactions between the years. Higher depreciation reflected among others acquisition of new mobile spectrum (from 3Q). Net finance costs increased PLN 59 million year-on-year due to higher debt and higher cost of debt following last year's refinancing.

9M Organic Cash Flow reflects strong operating cash and timing of capex & proceeds from real estate sales

Organic cash flow for 9M 2025 came at a PLN 668 million, up 1% year-on-year (or PLN 4 million). Cash flow provided by operating activities was PLN 192 million higher year-on-year supported by EBITDAaL growth and lower working capital requirement. It was offset however by higher cash capex and timing of real estate disposals. Cash capex was PLN 128 million higher year-on-year in 9M as a result of different phasing of investments between the years. Proceeds from real estate disposal were at PLN 64 million in 9M 2025 versus a very high level of PLN 146 million generated in 9M 2024.
