CTT - Correios de Portugal, S.A. 9 Months 2025 Consolidated Results

In the first 9 months of 2025 (9M25), revenues1 reached €911.2m (+15.0% y.o.y.2 ). This solid and continued growth was underpinned (i) by the growth of Express & Parcels, including the consolidation of Cacesa as from 30 April 2025, as well as (ii) by the continued growth of Banco CTT and (iii) by the higher public debt placements within Financial Services.

  • • Logistics totalled €775.8m in 9M25 (+14.3% y.o.y.) and accounted for 85% of CTT's total revenues.
  • Express & Parcels (E&P) amounted to €434.2m (+31.4% y.o.y.) and is the largest contributor to CTT's revenues (48%). E&P continues to benefit from the expansion of e-commerce in Iberia and from the consolidation of Cacesa. Organic growth, including Cacesa in 9M24 (since May), at E&P in 9M25 reached +15.2% y.o.y.
  • • Bank & Financial Services totalled €135.4m (+19.1% y.o.y.) boosted by the increase in public debt placement volumes, recovering from 9M24 levels, and by the continued growth at Banco CTT.

Recurring EBIT stood at €74.0m in 9M25 (+35.4% y.o.y.), with a margin of 8.1% (+1.2pp y.o.y.).

  • • Logistics contributed €39.3m (+45.9% y.o.y.) to and represented 53% of total recurring EBIT. Revenue growth, driven by volume expansion and by higher revenue per item, is translating into improved margin as scale benefit accrue. The consolidation of Cacesa, which carries a higher margin, is also driving improved profitability.
  • • Bank & Financial Services posted €34.7m (+25.2% y.o.y.), driven by Financial Services (+76.7% y.o.y.) on the back of the above-mentioned increase in public debt placements (+281.5% y.o.y. in 9M25).

Fully consolidated operating cash flow stood at €42.9m in 9M25 (compared to €29.1m in 9M24), while operating cash flow with Banco CTT accounted under the equity method increased from €1.4m in 9M24 to €20.0m in 9M25.

Net profit3 reached €32.8m in 9M25 (+18.4% y.o.y.).

O1Operational Performance

1. Operational performance

Logistics

Logistics revenues totalled €775.8m in 9M25 (+14.3% y.o.y.). This performance was driven by growth in Express & Parcels (+31.4% y.o.y.), including the consolidation of Cacesa. On a proforma basis, revenues in 9M25 would have grown by 7.0% y.o.y.

Mail & Other revenues totalled €341.6m in 9M25 (-1.9% y.o.y.). This decrease was mainly due to the performance of revenue from: (i) addressed mail (-2.6% y.o.y.); (ii) unaddressed advertising mail (-19.6% y.o.y.); and (iii) payments (-10.7% y.o.y.). On the other hand, revenue from business solutions grew (+10.9% y.o.y.).

It should be noted, however, that mail volumes already improved in 3Q25 and further to that, backlog recovery of registered mail is now visible in October and should improve dynamics in 4Q25.

Express & Parcels

Revenues from Express & Parcels totalled €434.2m in 9M25, representing growth of +31.4% y.o.y., with recurring EBIT of €36.5m (+51.6% y.o.y.). This includes the impact of Cacesa's consolidation as from 30 April 2025.

This growth was mainly driven by: (i) increased volumes, which reached 108.4 million items in 9M25 (+10.4% y.o.y.), with an average of around 582 thousand items processed per working day. It should be noted that September was impacted by a severe typhoon in some areas of China, which caused the cancellation of hundreds of flights and disruption to economic activities and logistics chains, retaining significant parcel volumes that ended up delaying their entry into CTT; (ii) higher average revenue per item; and (iii) the consolidation of Cacesa in 1H25 (from 30 April 2025).

Cacesa enhances and differentiates CTT's E&P offering, while the integrated model will continue to drive growth and profitability.

The acquisition of Cacesa, a company specialising in international e-commerce customs clearance, with a presence in 15 countries, concluded in 2Q25, significantly strengthened CTT's leadership in customs clearance, consolidating its position as one of the main operators in the Iberian e-commerce logistics solutions market. This integration not only increased the competitiveness of CTT's offering, but also enhanced the relevance of the customs clearance service, now fully integrated into the e-commerce logistics chain. This service has been taking on an increasingly strategic role, especially with large international customers sourcing e-commerce E&P flows from outside the European Union.

As part of the efforts to strengthen its presence throughout the logistics value chain, CTT acquired Decopharma, a company specialising in logistics solutions for the pharmaceutical and healthcare industry. This acquisition, which was completed on 29 July, was made for a consideration of €2m (debt / cash free basis). Decopharma has circa 30 employees and in 2024 generated approximately €3m of revenues. This transaction strengthens CTT's position as a logistics operator, extending its offering to complete logistics solutions across the entire value chain, including products that require specific storage and

transport conditions. Decopharma operates in two main segments: on the one hand, in the logistics of over-the-counter (OTC) medicines, nutritional supplements, cosmetics and healthcare products, as well as medicines for veterinary use; on the other hand, in the area of medical devices, namely hospital equipment, consumables and laboratory products.

In line with its commitment to supporting the growth of e-commerce, CTT continues to expand its out-of-home network in Portugal and Spain, both in non-automated delivery points and through its Locky locker network. At the end of September, CTT had installed a total of 1,228 Locky lockers in Portugal and Spain, where expansion began more recently with 66 lockers already installed and a further 70 lockers contracted.

The integrated Iberian offering and presence across the entire logistics value chain is a key factor in strengthening CTT's position in the Iberian market and enhancing operational efficiency.

Mail & Other

Mail & Other revenues totalled €341.6m in 9M25 (-€6.6m; -1.9% y.o.y.). Of particular note was the positive performance of revenues from business solutions, which recorded €41.0m in 9M25 (+€4.0m; +10.9% y.o.y.). However, the other business lines showed declines, mainly: (i) in addressed mail (-€7.2m; -2.6% y.o.y.); (ii) unaddressed advertising mail (-€0.7m; -19.6% y.o.y.); and (iii) payments (-€1.7m, -10.7% y.o.y.).

The new prices for 2025 for the postal services that make up the basket of the universal postal service4 came into force on 1 February. The update corresponds to an average annual change of +6.90%. The overall average annual variation of prices, also reflecting the effect of updating the special prices for bulk mail, is +6.53%. The average variation in 9M25 was +6.60%.

In 9M25, business solutions achieved revenues of €41.0m (+€4.0m; +10.9% y.o.y.). The third quarter of 2025 was marked by a strategic acceleration in CTT's Business Solutions area, consolidating its role as a leading technological and operational partner for companies and municipalities. In a context of high demand and digital transformation, CTT reinforced its value proposition with integrated, sustainable and results-oriented solutions.

While mail volumes already improved in 3Q25, backlog recovery of registered mail is now visible in October and should improve dynamics in 4Q25.

Of particular note are the business process outsourcing (BPO) and contact centre solutions businesses, which, with improvements and optimisations driven by the consulting, process reengineering and artificial intelligence teams, have intensified the implementation of reception, digitisation and archiving solutions, enabling organisations to offer greater agility and focus on their core business.

Recurring EBIT of Mail & Other in 9M25 was €2.8m, very close to what had been achieved in the same period of the previous year (-€0.07m; -2.5% y.o.y.).

4 Includes letter mail, editorial mail and parcels of the universal postal service, excluding international inbound mail.

Bank & Financial Services

Bank & Financial Services revenues totalled €135.4m in 9M25 (+€21.7m; +19.1% y.o.y.). This performance, when compared to the same period of the previous year, is strongly impacted by the behaviour of public debt certificates placements.

Recurring EBIT totalled €34.7m, corresponding to a growth of €7.0m (+25.2% y.o.y.) when compared to the same period last year.

Bank

Banco CTT revenues totalled €104.0m in 9M25 (+8.0% y.o.y.). This growth, strongly driven by the continued increase in the customer base (+3.8% y.o.y.), led to an annual increase of +8.3% y.o.y. in business volume to €7,590m and resulted in a positive performance in net interest income, which stood at €76.9m (+€3.8m; +5.2% y.o.y.), and in commissions received, which totalled €24.5m (+€3.0m; +14.0% y.o.y.).

At end of 9M25, the number of current accounts was 701k (+3.8% y.o.y.), up 20.1k compared to December 2024.

Business volumes in 9M25 reached €7,590.4m (+8.3% y.o.y.), mainly explained by: (i) customer deposits (Banco CTT consolidation), which stood at €4,201.7m in 9M25 (+3.9% y.o.y.); (ii) customer loans, which reached €2,085.2m (+15.4% y.o.y.), supported by auto loans (+6.7% y.o.y. to €1,000.1m) and mortgage loans (+18.1% y.o.y. to €945.4m); and (iii) off-balance savings, which totalled €1,243.5m (+18.9% y.o.y.).

Interest received from auto loans amounted to €49.7m in 9M25 (+€4.7m; +10.4% y.o.y.). Auto loan production stood at €219.4m in 9M25 (+11.6% y.o.y).

Interest received on mortgage loans totalled €21.9m in the period (-€1.8m; -7.6% y.o.y.). This performance is in line with the evolution of Euribor rates. Mortgage loan production stood at €210.9m in 9M25 (+€86.8m; +69.9% y.o.y.).

Business volume reached €7.59b (+8.3% y.o.y.). This growth was strongly driven by customer loans (+15.4%) and off-balance savings (+18.9%).

Other interest received declined by -€15.2m, as a result of the decrease in the return on amounts invested in the central bank, strongly impacted by by the European Central Bank's (ECB) key interest rate cuts.

Commissions received totalled €24.5m in 9M25 (+ €3.0m; +14.0% y.o.y.), with positive contributions from mortgage loans, accounts and cards, consumer credit and off-balance savings and insurance, which amounted to €21.4m (+€3.0m; +16.7% y.o.y.).

The loan-to-deposit ratio stood at 46.3% in the quarter.

The cost of risk stood at 0.7% in 3Q25, stabilising compared to the same period last year. In 9M25, cost of risk stood at 0.9%.

As at 30 September 2025, the loan-to-deposit ratio amounted to 46.3%.

Recurring EBIT amounted to €18.5m (-0.3% y.o.y.) in 9M25, stabilising in relation to the same period last year.

Financial Services

Financial Services revenues totalled €31.4m in 9M25 (+€14.0m; +80.8% y.o.y.). This growth is mainly due to the performance of public debt certificates.

In the wake of the various changes in the conditions and marketing of public debt certificates over the last two years, savings certificates have taken the lead in terms of the best interest rates among all guaranteed capital investments, against a backdrop of a sharp drop in term deposit rates. In 9M25, subscriptions totalled €5,013.5m, compared to €3,998.4m in the same period of the previous year.

Savings certificates remain a competitive alternative among guaranteed capital investments.

The expansion to the digital channel has proven to be an attractive commercial alternative, accounting for 9.2% of the product's turnover in the period, which corresponds to total subscriptions of over €114m.

Public debt certificates (Savings Certificates and Treasury Certificates Savings Growth) posted revenues of €19.8m in 9M25 (+€12.6m; +175.4% y.o.y.).

CTT has been repositioning its retail network for the distribution of services (retail as a service). This strategy includes the distribution of: (i) public debt; (ii) insurance products and healthcare plans; (iii) mail and express & parcels services, mostly in self-service; and (iv) convenience services for citizens.

Retail network as a convenience services platform.

The distribution of healthcare plans is increasingly becoming more relevant. Total number of active healthcare plans distributed by CTT reached 44 thousand at the end of 9M25, having increased by 75% when compared to the base at the end of 2024. Healthcare plans are a source of recurrent monthly-fee revenues, adding to revenue visibility and predictability.

Recurring EBIT for 9M25 stood at €16.4m (+€7.0m; +75.4% y.o.y.).

Revenues

Revenues, including the consolidation of Cacesa as from 30 April 2025, totalled €911.2m in 9M25 (+15.0% y.o.y.), driven by Logistics (+14.3% y.o.y.), with particular emphasis on Express & Parcels (+31.4% y.o.y.).

Bank & Financial Services (+19.1% y.o.y.) also recorded a positive variation, due mostly to the recovery in public debt placements which has taken place since 4Q24.

Operating Costs

As at 30 September 2025, operating costs (relative to EBITDA) totalled €776.4m (+13.9% y.o.y.), with the growth essentially explained by the increase in the Logistics activity, especially Express & Parcels, including the consolidation of Cacesa as from 30 April 2025.

Staff costs reached €310.8m, having increased by +4.0% y.o.y. (+€11.9m) during the period. On a pro forma basis, adjusting for the consolidation of Cacesa, staff costs would have grown by 1.9% y.o.y. (+€5.8m). This growth is primarily due to salary increases, as the evolution of employees during the period was broadly stable given that the additional efforts carried out in streamlining mail operations were almost offset by the growth in express and parcel activity (including the acquisition of Cacesa), banking and business solutions (contact centre and document management). The increase in salaries and in the minimum wage in Portugal and Spain (+€7.8m) represents the bulk of the growth in this item.

External supplies & services costs reached €431.5m, having increased by €82.5m or +23.6% y.o.y. during the period. On a pro forma basis, adjusting for the consolidation of Cacesa, external supplies & services costs would have grown by +13.5% y.o.y. (equivalent to +€51.2m), driven by E&P organic growth (+€73.8m).

Impairments and provisions stood at €11.8m, having decreased by €1.2m (-9.2% y.o.y.). On a pro forma basis, adjusting for the consolidation of Cacesa, impairments and provisions would have declined by 8.7% y.o.y., equivalent to -€1.1m. This performance is the result of the reduction in impairments in the Mail (-€1.6m) and E&P (-€1.0m) businesses, notwithstanding growth in activity, partially offset by an increase in the Banking business (+€1.4m).

Other costs increased by €1.5m (+7.3% y.o.y.), mainly due to the lottery business in financial services and retail.

Depreciation & amortisation reached €60.8m, having increased by €4.8m (+8.7% y.o.y.). On a pro forma basis, adjusting for the consolidation of Cacesa, D&A would have increased by 6.4% y.o.y., corresponding to +€3.7m. This increase is primarily explained by the investments in information systems (+€1.3m), buildings and facilities (+€2.3m) and fleet (+€0.6m).

Specific items amounted to €17.9m, mostly due to: (i) restructuring, including employment contracts suspension agreements (+€12.0m); and (ii) costs associated with strategic projects (+€4.4m). In 3Q25, specific items reached €7.6m.

Recurring EBIT

Recurring EBIT stood at €74.0m in 9M25 (+€19.4m; +35.4% y.o.y.), with a margin of 8.1%, up from 6.9% in 9M24. The recurring EBIT growth was driven by the good performance of Express & Parcels (+€12.4m; +51.6% y.o.y.), including the effect of Cacesa's consolidation, and Financial Services (+€7.1m; +76.7% y.o.y.).

On a pro forma basis, adjusting for the consolidation of Cacesa, recurring EBIT would have grown by 19.5% y.o.y. (+€12.1m). In 9M24, the pro forma margin, including Cacesa, would have been 7.4% and the organic margin expansion between 9M24 and 9M25 would have been 0.7pp y.o.y.

Net profit

The consolidated financial results amounted to -€14.4m (-€1.2m; -0.1% y.o.y.) in 9M25.

Financial costs and losses incurred amounted to €15.1m (-€1.7m; -13.0% y.o.y.), incorporating mainly: (i) financial costs related to post-employment and longterm employee benefits of €4.6m; (ii) interest recognised on lease liabilities linked to the implementation of IFRS 16 in the amount of €4.7m; and (iii) interest on bank loans for an amount of €5.0m.

In 9M25, CTT obtained a consolidated net profit attributable to CTT Group equity holders of €32.8m, €5.1m higher than in the same period of 2024. Income tax recorded a positive trend (-€0.2m).

Staff

On 30 September 2025, CTT had 13,954 employees (+139; 1.0% y.o.y.), including permanent and fixedterm employees, as shown in the table below.

Adjusting for the consolidation of Cacesa, which as at 30 September 2024 had 318 employees, the total number of employees at CTT Group would have declined by 1.3% y.o.y. This organic decline reflects primarily the staff reduction within Mail and corporate structure, which was partially offset by the organic increase registered in E&P.

In relation to E&P, it should be underlined that the increase of 564 employees as at 30 September 2025 is mainly related to the acquisition and initial consolidation of Cacesa, which, as mentioned above, had 318 employees on 30 September 2024. On a like

for like basis, the total number of employees in E&P would have increased only by 10.8% y.o.y., reflecting growth in volumes.

* Specific items affecting EBITDA.

The change in net liabilities of Financial Services and Banco CTT reflects the evolution of credit balances with third parties, depositors or other banking financial liabilities, net of the amounts invested in credit or investments in securities/banking financial assets, of entities of the CTT Group providing financial services, namely the financial services of CTT, Payshop, Banco CTT and 321 Crédito.

6 The change in other cash items reflects the evolution of Banco CTT's sight deposits at Banco de Portugal, outstanding cheques/clearing of Banco CTT cheques, and impairment of sight and term deposits and bank applications.

In 9M25, the Company generated an operating cash flow of €42.9m (+47.7% y.o.y.). The €13.9m increase in operating cash flow was primarily driven by (i) the positive EBITDA performance (+€24.2m; +21.9% y.o.y.); and (ii) the more favourable evolution of working capital (+€8.8m). Investment continues to reflect the growth observed in E&P activity and volumes and CTT's commitment to continuing to strengthen automation and quality of service in the Express & Parcels business and to developing Banco CTT.

In terms of working capital, the positive evolution in 9M25 compared to 9M24 (+€8.8m) demonstrates rigour and control, incorporating the Group's organic and inorganic growth. The amount of -€23.0m is mainly due to seasonal effects that will be reversed in the last quarter of the year, when the peak season will occur.

Free cash flow amounted to €18.8m, an increase of 121.1% y.o.y. (equivalent to €10.3m).

Adjusted cash was essentially affected by (i) the payment of the dividend on 15 May 2025 (-€23.7m), (ii) the acquisition of own shares (-€14.1m); and (iii) the acquisition of Cacesa on 30 April 2025, including the consideration paid for the shares acquisition and the initial consolidation of Cacesa's cash position. Regarding the latter, it should be underlined that the acquisition of Cacesa was done for a total price of €106.8m, paid on 30 April 2025. The amount referred to under 'Financial investments and other' in 9M25 includes not only the acquisition price of Cacesa (€106.8m), but also a payment relating to the acquisition of Decopharma in July 2025 (€2.1m).

Equity and consolidated liabilities 5,708.8 5,915.4 206.6 3.6%

The key aspects of the comparison between the balance sheet as at 30 September 2025 and that as at 31 December 2024 are as follows:

Assets grew by €206.6m, mainly due to the increase in loans to bank customers (+€204.8m), as well as in Goodwill following the acquisition of Cacesa (+€85.8m). On the other hand, there was a decrease in other banking financial assets (-€67.9m) as a result of the reduced investments made by Banco CTT in central banks and other credit institutions.

Equity increased by €1.9m vs. 31 December 2024. The change is mainly explained by (i) the net income attributable to CTT Group shareholders in 9M25 amounting to €32.8m, (ii) the recognition of noncontrolling interests amounting to €4.7m in the period, (iii) the €2.3m reduction in share capital following the cancellation of shares acquired under the share buyback programme 24-25, which led to an increase of €23.1m in the item 'own shares', partially offset by the acquisition of own shares in the amount of €13.8m during 9M25. Contributing to this decrease was also the distribution of €22.5m in dividends and the reduction of reserves by €20.1m following the cancellation of shares for capital reduction.

Liabilities grew by €204.6m, mostly due to the increase in financing obtained (+€137.6m) following the bond loan taken out and in banking clients' deposits and other loans (+€156.7m). On the other hand, there was a decrease in debt securities issued at amortised cost (-€61.0m) and accounts payable (-€41.2m) as a result of the reduction in public debt subscriptions compared to 31 December 2024.

Consolidated net debt

The key aspects of the comparison between the consolidated net debt as at 30 September 2025 and that as at 31 December 2024 are as follows:

On 30 September 2025, adjusted cash stood at €302.8m, a increase of €8.4m compared to 31 December 2024. The adjusted cash flow performance is the result of operating cash flow generated of €42.9m and the change in debt levels (+€117.6m) due to bond financing contracted (+€110.0m) and debt amortisation during the period, which were offset by (i) payments of employee benefits (-€13.8m), (ii) tax payments (-€10.3m), (iii) the acquisition of own shares (-€14.1m), (iv) payment of dividends (-€23.7m), and (v) the acquisition of Cacesa (-€106.8m).

Short-term & long-term debt increased by €137.6m (+60.8% y.o.y.), mainly due to the effect of the bond loan (+€110.0m) taken out to finance the acquisition of Cacesa.

Liabilities related to employee benefits (postemployment and long-term benefits) stood at €192.8m in September 2025, up by €7.0m compared to December 2024. The increase essentially results from the liability with employment contracts suspension agreements following the agreements made in the period under review.

These liabilities related to employee benefits are associated with deferred tax assets amounting to €52.1m, which brings the current amount of liabilities related to employee benefits net of deferred tax assets associated with them to €140.6m.

Postal regulatory issues

Within the regulatory framework in force since February 2022 and the Convention on the criteria to be met for the pricing of postal services that make up the basket of services within the universal service obligation (Universal Postal Service Pricing Convention) for the 2023-2025 period, of 27 July 2022, the prices of these services were updated on 1 February 2025. The update corresponds to an average annual price variation of 6.90%. The overall average annual price variation, also reflecting the effect of the update of special prices for bulk mail, is 6.53%.

On 25 July 2025, CTT, ANACOM – National Communications Authority and DGC – Directorate-General for Consumers signed the the Universal Postal Service Pricing Convention ("Convention") for the 2026-28 period. The Convention maintains the current framework, focusing on the pricing criteria for the Universal Postal Service, covering letter mail, editorial mail and parcel services, and does not apply to the special prices of postal services for bulk mail senders (subject to the specific regime provided for in Article 14-A of the Postal Law). The formula for calculating the maximum annual price variation for the basket of services has also been maintained, with the weight of variable costs in the total costs associated with the Universal Postal Service set at 15% for each year, replacing the 16% value defined in the previous convention. In addition, the maximum annual variation may not exceed 12%.

Main ESG milestones achieved

The CTT Group's total COe emissions increased by 5.4% y.o.y., primarily due to the rise in subcontracted road activity driven by the growth in express volumes. Nevertheless, efficiency improvements were achieved, resulting in a 2.6% reduction in the carbon footprint per express item.

Supported by its carbon transition plan, CTT Group aims to operate with 50% of its last-mile fleet being environmentally friendly by the end of this year, having already reached 42.3%, with 1,198 eco-friendly vehicles. To accelerate this progress, phase 2.0 of the charging infrastructure installation is currently underway. As a result of the electrification of the lightduty fleet and the use of biofuel (HVO) in the heavyduty fleet, direct Scope 1 emissions have been significantly reduced (-21.2% y.o.y.).

A new stage of the strategic partnership with EDP is highlighted, which will enable CTT to access and benefit from energy produced by 200 neighbouring shops and distribution centres within Solar Neighbourhoods, thereby increasing its consumption of renewable energy.

In collaboration with IPC7 , CTT took part in the 7th edition of the Green Postal Day, an international initiative by postal operators in the fight against climate change. Since its inception, more than 31 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions have been avoided by the group of participating organisations.

Committed to promoting a circular economy, 90.1% of CTT's mail, express and parcels offering incorporates recycled materials, a significant advancement aligned with the goal of integrating this attribute into 100% of the offering by 2030.

Noteworthy is the participation in the global initiative World Cleanup Day for the third consecutive year, which mobilised more than 500 CTT volunteers across eight clean-up actions in beaches and forests, where over one tonne of waste was collected.

A highlight is the CTT Wellbeing Programme, which was awarded the "Best Culture of Wellbeing" prize at the Wellbeing Awards 2025, recognising the integration of this value into the organisational culture. CTT Group also received the Wellbeing Best Practices Certification Seal.

The Equality Plan 2026 was also published, aimed at promoting gender equality, eliminating discrimination, and encouraging work-life balance. Gender parity in top and middle management reached 40.2% (+3.6pp y.o.y.).

CTT donated €606,106 (0.82% of recurring EBIT) to support communities (-0.42pp y.o.y.) and promoted 36 corporate volunteering actions, involving more than 800 CTT volunteers (+2.4% y.o.y.), who

7 International Post Corporation

dedicated approximately 4,000 hours in support of Portuguese and Spanish communities.

Three new social impact partnerships are also highlighted. With the association SOUMA – Amigos da Estrela, a comprehensive collaboration was established that includes support through volunteering activities, training sessions, the creation of an online shop, and specialised assistance from the CTT call centre to contact beneficiaries. With Cáritas Diocesana de Lisboa, an initiative was carried out to transport donated clothing for 458 female inmates at the Tires Prison Facility. Lastly, the "Juntos na onda certa" partnership between Locky and the NGO Soma Surf aimed to support young girls in São Tomé and Príncipe through the collection of school supplies and hygiene products in lockers.

Share buyback programme

On 17 April 2025, CTT announced the conclusion of the share buyback programme announced on 19 July 2024. Under this programme, 4.620 million own shares were acquired from 22 July 2024 to 17 April 2025 for a total amount of 25 million euros.

The Annual General Meeting held on 30 April 2025 approved a reduction of CTT's share capital by up to €4,250,000.00 corresponding to the cancellation of up to 8,500,000 own shares. Following this resolution, CTT proceeded to reducing its share capital in the amount of €2,310,000.00 through the cancellation of 4,620,000 own shares representing 3,34% of CTT's share capital prior to the cancellation and which were acquired within the framework of the share buyback programme. The cancellation of own shares and corresponding reduction of CTT's share capital was concluded on 14 May 2025.

CTT's share capital then became €66,910,000.00 represented by 133,820,000 shares with a nominal value of €0.50.

Outlook for 2025

Having successfully concluded the acquisition of Cacesa on 30 April 2025, CTT intends to: (i) conclude the joint venture agreement that formalises the strategic partnership with DHL; (ii) invest organically in the Iberian express and parcel market in order to capitalise on the growing trend towards e-commerce adoption; (iii) continue to foster Banco CTT's growth, which is underpinned by balance sheet optionality and potential equity and industry partnerships; (iv) continue to launch new recurring revenue services and thus increase the profitability of the retail network; (v) continue to carry out transformation initiatives in order to maintain mail productivity; and (vi) look for new opportunities for inorganic growth, particularly in the logistics and fulfilment segments.

CTT will focus on minimising the impact of relevant and persistent macro and industry risks, including geopolitical uncertainty, inflation, cost of energy and raw materials, or the imposition of tariffs that affect global trade.

Against this backdrop, CTT reiterates the objectives for 2025 disclosed at the 2022 Capital Markets Day, anticipating revenues between €1.1bn and €1.25bn (already achieved in 2024) and maintains the ambition of achieving a recurring EBIT, including the consolidation of Cacesa since 30 April 2025, above €115m. Growth will be driven by the strong expansion of the Express & Parcels segment, greater engagement with Banco CTT customers and normalisation of public debt placement.

CTT remains committed to its principles of capital allocation and financial flexibility, as announced in June 2022 during the Capital Markets Day: (1) enabling CTT to continue to pursue its investment objectives in business growth and to be a leading Iberian player in logistics and e-commerce; (2) implementing an attractive shareholder remuneration policy, providing an adequate source of income for its shareholders; and (3) combining, within specific market conditions, a recurring dividend-based shareholder remuneration with a case-by-case shareholder remuneration, based on the repurchase and subsequent cancellation of shares.

1. Introduction

CTT – Correios de Portugal, S.A. ("CTT" or "Company"), with head office at Avenida dos Combatentes, 43, 14th floor, 1643-001 in Lisbon, had its origin in the "Administração Geral dos Correios Telégrafos e Telefones" government department and its legal form is the result of successive re-organisations carried out by the Portuguese state business sector in the communications area.

Decree-Law no. 49 368, of 10 November 1969, founded the state-owned company CTT - Correios e Telecomunicações de Portugal, E. P., which started operating on 1 January 1970. By Decree-Law no. 87/92, of 14 May, CTT – Correios e Telecomunicações de Portugal, E. P., was transformed into a legal entity governed by private law, with the status of a state-owned public limited company. Finally, with the foundation of the former Telecom Portugal, S.A. by spin-off from Correios e Telecomunicações de Portugal, S.A. under Decree-Law no. 277/92, of 15 December, the Company's name was changed to the current CTT – Correios de Portugal, S.A.

On 31 January 2013, the Portuguese State through the Order 2468/12 – SETF, of 28 December, determined the transfer of the investment owned by the Portuguese State in CTT to Parpública – Participações Públicas, SGPS, S.A.

At the General Meeting held on 30 October 2013, the registered capital of CTT was reduced to 75,000,000 Euros, being from that date onward represented by 150,000,000 shares, as a result of a stock split which was accomplished through the reduction of the nominal value from 4.99 Euros to 0.50 Euros.

During the financial year ended 31 December 2013, CTT's capital was opened to the private sector. Supported by Decree-Law no. 129/2013, of 6 September, and the Resolution of the Council of Ministers ("RCM") no. 62-A/2013, of 10 October, the RCM no. 62-B/2013, of 10 October, and RCM no. 72- B/2013, of 14 November, the first phase of privatisation of the capital of CTT took place on 5 December 2013. From this date onward, 63.64% of the shares of CTT (95.5 million shares) were owned by the private sector, of which 14% (21 million shares) were sold in a Public Offering and 49.64% (74.5 million shares) by Institutional Direct Selling. On 31 December 2013 the Portuguese State, through Parpública - Participações Públicas, SGPS, S.A. held 36.36% of the shares of CTT, 30.00% by holding and 6.36% by allocation.

On 5 September 2014, the second phase of the privatisation of CTT took place. The shares held by Parpública - Participações Públicas, SGPS, S.A., which on that date represented 31.503% of CTT's capital, were subject to a private offering of shares ("Equity Offering") via an accelerated book-building process. The Equity Offering was addressed exclusively to institutional investors.

At the meeting of the Company's Board of Directors held on 16 March 2022, it was unanimously decided to approve the implementation of a Buy-back programme for the Company's own shares, including the related terms and conditions, with the sole purpose of reducing the Company's share capital through the cancellation of shares acquired under the aforementioned programme, subject to prior approval by the General Meeting.

At the General Meeting held on 21 April 2022, a resolution was approved regarding the maximum number of shares to be acquired under the Share Buy-back Programme.

On 7 November 2022, the Company's share capital reduction in the amount of 2,325,000 euros, through the cancellation of 4,650,000 shares representing 3.1% of the share capital, was registered in the Commercial Register Office, with the Company's share capital to be composed of 145,350,000 shares with the nominal value of 0.50 Euros each.

Subsequently, at the Annual General Meeting held on 20 April 2023 and still following the share buyback programme mentioned above, the share capital reduction of 717,500 Euros was approved. On 21 April 2023, the share capital reduction of the aforementioned amount was entered in the commercial register, through the extinction of 1,435,000 shares representing 0.997% of the acquired CTT share capital.

On 17 July 2024, a reduction of CTT's share capital in the amount of 2,737,500 Euros was registered before the Commercial Registry Office through the cancellation of 5,475,000 shares held by the Company, representing 3.80% of its share capital and acquired under the share buyback programme carried out from 26 June 2023 to 9 May 2024. This share capital reduction was carried out following a resolution of the Annual General Meeting of CTT Shareholders held on 23 April 2024 which approved the share capital reduction in the amount of up to 3,825,000 Euros corresponding to the cancellation of up to 7,650,000 own shares already acquired or to be acquired by 25 June 2024 for the special purpose of implementing the share buyback programme and corresponding release of excess capital.

On 12 May 2025, a reduction of CTT's share capital in the amount of 2,310,00 Euros was registered before the Commercial Registry Office through the cancellation of 4,620,000 shares held by the Company, representing 3.34% of its share capital and acquired under the share buyback programme carried out from 22 July 2024 to 17 April 2025. This share capital reduction was carried out following a resolution of the Annual General Meeting of CTT Shareholders held on 30 April 2025 which approved the share capital reduction in the amount of up to 4,250,000 Euros corresponding to the cancellation of up to 8,500,000 own shares already acquired or to be acquired by 22 July 2025 for the special purpose of implementing the share buyback programme and corresponding release of excess capital.

Thus, as at 30 September 2025, CTT's share capital now amounts to 66,910,000 Euros, represented by 133,820,000 shares with a nominal value of fifty cents per share, with the Company's Articles of Association being consequently amended.

The financial statements attached herewith are expressed in Euros, as this is the main currency of the Group's operations.

The shares of CTT are listed on Euronext Lisbon.

These financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors and authorised for issue on 30 October 2025.

2. Material accounting policies

The accounting policies adopted, including financial risk management policies, are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024, except for the new standards and amendments effective from 1 January 2025.

2.1 New standards or amendments adopted by the Group

The standards and amendments recently issued, already effective and adopted by the Group in the preparation of these financial statements, are as follows:

Amendments to IAS 21 - The Effects of Changes in Exchange Rates: Lack of Interchangeability – This amendment aims to clarify how to assess the interchangeability of a currency, and how the exchange rate should be determined when it is not exchangeable for an extended period. The amendment specifies that a currency should be considered interchangeable when an entity is able to obtain the other currency within a period that allows for

normal administrative management, and through an exchange mechanism or market in which an exchange transaction creates enforceable rights and obligations. If a currency cannot be exchanged for another currency, an entity should estimate the exchange rate at the measurement date of the transaction. The objective will be to determine the exchange rate that would be applicable, at the measurement date, for a similar transaction between market participants. The amendments also state that an entity may use an observable exchange rate without making any adjustments.

The Group did not register significant changes with the adoption of these standards and interpretations.

2.2 Basis of preparation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IAS / IFRS") as adopted by the European Union as at 1 January 2025, and in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting.

The consolidated financial statements were prepared under the assumption of going concern and are prepared under the historical cost convention, except for the financial assets and liabilities accounted at fair value.

3. Segment reporting

In accordance with IFRS 8, the Group discloses the segment financial reporting.

The Board of Directors regularly reviews segmental reports, using them to assess and communicate each segment performance, as well as to decide on how to allocate resources.

As of 30 June 2024, the Group began reporting on two new aggregating areas: "Logistics" and "Bank & Financial Services", in order to align with the existing business lines and simplifying business reporting.

These two areas aggregate the business segments "Mail & Others" and "Express & Parcels" as "Logistics", and "Bank" and "Financial Services & Retail" as "Bank and Financial Services", maintaining the same level of disclosure of all relevant business drivers and captions.

"Payments" business was migrated to the "Mail & Others" in order to align all B2B commercial streams under the same ownership, ensuring only bank statutory entities in the "Banco" business segment.

Other small adjustments were also made as part of the reorganization of the company's commercial portfolio, namely the migration of the "Tax Payments" and "Money Transfers" from "Financial Services & Retail" segment to "Mail & Others".

Thus, Logistics is made up of the following entities:

  • Mail & Others CTT Contacto, S.A., CTT Soluções Empresariais, S.A., New Spring Services S.A., CTT IMO - Sociedade Imobiliária, S.A. MedSpring, S.A., CTT IMO Yield, S.A., Payshop, S.A. and CTT, S.A. excluding:
  • Business related to postal financial services and retail products Financial Services & Retail;
  • The money transfer business of both CTT, S.A. and Payshop S.A.
  • Express & Parcels includes CTT Expresso S.A., CORRE S.A., 1520 Innovation Fund, Open Lockers, S.A., CTT Logística, S.A, Decopharma, Lda and Cacesa and all its subsidiaries;

Bank & Financial Services includes:

  • Financial Services & Retail Postal Financial Services and the sale of products and services in the retail network of CTT, S.A. and the money transfer business of both CTT S.A. and Payshop S.A.
  • Bank Banco CTT S.A., S.A. and 321 Crédito S.A.

The business segregation by segment is based on management information produced internally and presented to the Extended Executive Committee ("chief operating decision maker").

The segments cover the three CTT business areas, as follows:

  • Postal Market, covered by the Mail segment;
  • Express and Parcels Markets, covered by the Express & Parcels segment; and
  • Financial Market, covered by the Financial Services and Bank segments.

The amounts reported in each business segment result from the aggregation of the subsidiaries and business units defined in each segment perimeter and the elimination of transactions between companies of the same segment.

The statement of financial position of each subsidiary and business unit is determined based on the amounts booked directly in the companies that compose the segment, including the elimination of balances between companies of the same segment, and excluding the allocation in the segments of the adjustments between segments.

The income statement for each business segment is based on the amounts booked directly in the companies' financial statements and related business units, adjusted by the elimination of transactions between companies of the same segment.

However, as CTT, S.A. has assets in more than one segment it was necessary to split its income and costs by the several operating segments. The Internal Services Rendered refer to services provided across the different CTT, S.A. business areas, and the income is calculated according to standard activities valued through internally set transfer prices. The Mail segment provides internal services essentially related to the retail network (included in the Mail segment). Additionally, the Financial Services Segment uses the Retail network to sell its products. The use of the Retail network by other segments, as Express & Parcels and CTT Bank is, equally, presented in the line "Internal Services Rendered".

Initially, CTT, S.A. operating costs are allocated to the different segments by charging the internal transactions for the services mentioned above. After this initial allocation, costs relating to corporate and support areas (CTT Central Structure) are allocated by nature to the Mail segment and others.

The consolidated income statement by nature, aggregators and segment of the nine-months periods ended 30 September 2024 and 30 September 2025 are as follows:

The detail of the underlying reasons to the non-allocation of the following assets to any segment, is as follows:

  • "Intangible assets" (5,420,796 Euros): the unallocated amount is related to part of the intangible assets in progress, which are allocated to the underlying segment in the moment they become firm assets;
  • "Tangible fixed assets" (1,120,802 Euros): This amount corresponds to a part of the tangible fixed assets in progress and advances payments to suppliers, which are allocated to the related segment at the time of the transfer to firm assets;
  • "Investment properties" (4,952,693 Euros): These assets are not allocated to the operating activity, which is why they are not allocated to any segment;
  • "Deferred tax assets" (61,467,847 Euros): These assets are mainly comprised of deferred tax assets associated with employee benefits, being those related to the CTT, S.A. Health Plan the most relevant amount, as detailed in note 26 - Income tax for the period. CTT, S.A. is allocated

  • to different segments, as already mentioned, the allocation of these assets to the different segments does not seem possible to be carried out reliably;
  • "Accounts receivables" (86,415,617 Euros): This amount cannot be allocated, due to the existence of multi-products customers, whose receivable amounts correspond to more than one segment;
  • "Other assets" (36,589,502 Euros): This amount is mainly related to prepayments and other current and non-current assets, mostly related to CTT S.A., which are allocated to different segments and this allocation is not possible to be carried out reliably;
  • "Cash and cash equivalents (97,287,185 Euros): the unallocated amount is related, essentially, to the cash and cash equivalents of CTT S.A., as this company concentrates the business segments' Mail, Financial Services & Retail and Bank, and it is not possible to split the amounts of cash and bank deposits by each CTT's businesses.

Debt by segment is detailed as follows:

The depreciation recorded in the Group amounting to 46,107,823 Euros (41,551,687 Euros on 30 September 2024), is booked under the caption Depreciation/amortisation and impairment of investments, net.

As at 30 September 2025, in keeping with its strategy of developing the real estate business, described in detail in note 7, CTT transferred 30 properties to CTT IMO Yield, resulting in the derecognition of tangible fixed assets at a net book value of 5,417 thousand Euros and investment properties with a net book value of 422 thousand Euros (note 6). The Company then carried out a leaseback operation for the properties used within the scope of its operational activity. This operation resulted in the recognition of a right of use of 2,460 thousand euros, as well as the respective lease liability of 5,997 thousand euros. The capital gains generated in the operation total 2,605 thousand euros for the Company. Considering that this is an operation between group companies, no impacts were recognised on the Company's results for the period. It should also be noted that this operation had no impact on the Group's consolidated accounts.

According to the concession contract in force (Note 1), at the end of the concession, the assets included in the public and private domain of the State revert automatically, at no cost, to the conceding entity. As the postal network belongs exclusively to CTT, not being a public domain asset, only the assets that belong to the State revert to it, and as such, at the end of the concession CTT will continue to own its assets. The Board of Directors, supported by CTT's accounting records and the statement of Directorate General of Treasury and Finance ("Direção Geral do Tesouro e Finanças"), the entity responsible for the Information System of Public Buildings ("Sistema de Informação de Imóveis do Estado" – SIIE) concludes that CTT's assets do not include any public or private domain assets of the Portuguese State.

As under the concession contract, the grantor does not control any significant residual interest in CTT's postal network and CTT being free to dispose of, replace or encumber the assets that integrate the

postal network, IFRIC 12 - Service Concession Agreements is not applicable to the universal postal service concession contract.

During the nine-months periods ended 30 September 2025, the most significant movements in the Tangible Fixed Assets caption were the following:

Buildings and other constructions:

The movements associated with acquisitions and transfers concern to capitalisation works in own and third-party buildings in several CTT and CTT Expresso facilities.

Basic equipment:

The amount relating to acquisitions mainly concerns to the acquisition of electric chargers amounting to 134 thousand Euros, the acquisition of CCTV equipment amounting to 194 thousand Euros, the acquisition of containers amounting to 99 thousand Euros by CTT Expresso, the acquisition of distribution vehicles worth 270 thousand Euros by CORRE and the acquisition of lockers worth 862 thousand Euros by Open Lockers.

Office equipment:

The value of the acquisitions refers mainly to the acquisition of various computer equipment, worth approximately 879 thousand euros, and furniture, worth 238 thousand euros, carried out by CTT, as well as the acquisition of computer equipment, worth 172 thousand euros, and furniture, worth 148 thousand euros, carried out by CTT Expresso.

Other tangible fixed assets:

The acquisitions caption essentially records prevention and safety equipment amounting to approximately 187 thousand Euros at CTT.

The depreciation recorded, in the amount of 29,666,282 Euros (26,904,217 Euros on 30 September 2024), is booked under the caption "Depreciation/amortisation and impairment of investments, net."

The information on the liabilities associated with these leases as well as the interest expenses can be found disclosed on Debt (Note 18) and Interest expenses and income (Note 25), respectively.

For the nine-months period ended 30 September 2025, no interest on loans was capitalised, as no loans were directly identified attributable to the acquisition or construction of an asset that requires a substantial period of time (greater than one year) to reach its status of use.

According to the analysis of impairment triggers as at 30 September 2025, no events or circumstances were identified that indicate that the amount for which the Group's tangible fixed assets are recorded may not be recovered.

There are no tangible fixed assets with restricted ownership or any carrying value relative to any tangible fixed assets which have been given as a guarantee of liabilities.

The contractual commitments related to Tangible fixed assets at 30 September 2025, amount to 4,224,001 Euros.

During the first half of 2024, the Group changed the estimated remaining useful life of the core banking system (Banco CTT's main operating software) to approximately 2 years (7 years before), assigning it an estimated residual value of approximately 6,000 thousand euros. This change is the result of the signing of a service provision agreement with the current licensing provider, which provides for the migration and upgrade of the current license (on premises) to access to a software as a service license, which will incorporate a set of customizations and configurations that will be transferred from the current on premises system and to which a similar value to the aforementioned residual value is attributed, which is estimated to come into effect at the end of 2025. On 30 September 2025 this asset has a net book value of 6,378 thousand euros (31 December 2024: 7,493 thousand euros).

The transfers occurred in the period ended 30 September 2025 from Intangible assets in progress to Computer software refer to IT projects, which were completed during the year.

Regarding to the company CORRE, as the Group has the right to variable returns arising from its involvement and the ability to affect those returns, it is included in the consolidation.

On 4 January 2024, CTT IMO Yield concluded a conversion process into an alternative real estate investment organization (OIA) in a corporate form with fixed capital and private subscription, managed by a management entity that includes the business universe of Sierra Investments, the company Sierra IG - SGOIC, S.A. On the same date, CTT completed the sale of a 26.3% shareholder position in CTT IMO Yield to Sonae Investment SGPS, S.A. and other investors, as planned in the Share Purchase and Sale Agreement, which translated into a gross receipt of 32,447,343 Euros. Following this operation, the amount of 32,959,531 Euros was recognized under the caption minority interests in equity.

On 18 April 2024, CTT Expresso acquired the minority stake in Open Lockers held by the entity's remaining shareholders, in the amount of 1,439,000 Euros. The Group will therefore hold a 100% stake in Open Lockers from that date onwards.

On 26 June 2024, Banco CTT subscribed an increase in the share capital in the subsidiary 321 Crédito, by making a cash contribution, in the amount of 5,000,000 Euros, resulting in the issuance of 5,000,000 new book-entry shares, ordinary, nominative shares with an issue value of 1 euro each. The amount of share capital of 321 Crédito in the amount of 30,000,000 Euros increased to 35,000,000 Euros.

On 6 November 2022, CTT Correios de Portugal, S.A. and its subsidiary Banco CTT, S.A. entered into a strategic partnership agreement with Generali Seguros, S.A. (Tranquilidade/Generali Seguros).

The transaction concluded between the parties included:

  • Long-term distribution agreements, with an exclusivity period renewable every 5 years, for the distribution by CTT and Banco CTT of Tranquilidade/Generali Seguros' life and non-life insurance products;
  • Subscription by Tranquilidade/Generali Seguros of a reserved share capital increase of 25 million Euros in Banco CTT in exchange for an 8.71% shareholding investment. A Shareholders' Agreement will grant Tranquilidade/Generali Seguros a set of non-controling interests in line with the size of the shareholding investment.

On 29 November 2024, following approval by the competent authorities, CTT formalised with Generali Tranquilidade the strategic partnership for Banco CTT, announced at the end of 2022, under the terms described above.

The subscription of an increase in Banco CTT's share capital of 25 million Euros by Tranquilidade/ Generali Seguros resulted in a minority equity interest of 8.71%, and a consequent reduction in CTT's stake, including Banco's subsidiary, 321 Crédito, to 91.29%, as at 29 November 2024. This transaction resulted in the recognition of non-controlling interests in the amount of 27,153,204 Euros.

On January 30, 2025, CTT IMO Yield was subject to a capital increase by cash contribution, in the amount of 976,007 Euros. This capital increase resulted in the issue of 1,015,510 new shares.

On February 5, 2025, continuing its strategy of developing the real estate business, CTT transferred 30 properties to CTT IMO Yield in the form of a capital contribution in kind, in the amount of 11,980,000 Euros. This operation led to the issue of 12,464,884 new shares.

The amount of the contribution in kind corresponded to the fair value of the properties as determined by an external valuation drawn up by two independent experts. For each property being transferred, the average value of the two valuations drawn up by each of the independent experts was taken into account to determine its fair value.

Following these capital increase operations in CTT IMO Yield, on February 25, 2025, CTT sold to the current shareholders the necessary shares to maintain unchanged the proportion of capital held by each of the shareholders, therefore, on 30 September 2025, CTT maintains its 73.7% stake in this entity. As it did not involve the loss of control, this operation was considered an equity transaction and the amount of 3,407,430 Euros was recognized under the caption "Non-controlling interests" in equity.

On March 7, 2025, Open Lockers underwent a capital increase in the form of a supplementary capital of 2,200,000 Euros.

On April 23, 2025, CTT Expresso carried out a capital increase of 110,000,800 Euros, with the aim of providing the entity with the necessary funds to acquire Cacesa. This transaction increased the share capital by 5,040,000 Euros, bringing it to 25,740,000 Euros, in the form of a new cash contribution with the issuance of 280,000 new shares with a nominal value of 18 Euros each. As part of this capital increase, each share will be subscribed at a price of €392.86, corresponding to 18 Euros of the subscribed capital value and €374.86 of premium per share, meaning that the total amount subscribed and paid up is 110,000,800 Euros, of which 104,960,800 Euros corresponds to the total premium set taking into account the most recent market valuation of the company carried out in the context of the strategic partnership with DHL.

On April 24, 2025, CTT Soluções Empresariais sold CTT Services to CTT, and since then, this company has been 100% directly owned by the parent company. The transaction was carried out at book value, as this is the accounting policy adopted by the Group for joint control transactions, and there was no impact on the Group's consolidated accounts. Subsequently, on June 26, 2025, a decision was also made to change the company name to CTT Logística, S.A., the corporate purpose and corporate bodies. On the same day, this entity underwent a share capital increase of 2,200,000 Euros, bringing the total amount to 2,250,000 Euros on 30 September 2025.

On July 24, 2025, Open Lockers was the subject of a capital increase in the form of a supplementary capital of 3,700,000 Euros.

Name Constitution Year Place of issue Consolidation Method
Ulisses Finance No.2 (*) 2021 Portugal Full
Ulisses Finance No.3 (*) 2022 Portugal Full
Chaves Funding No.8 (*) 2019 Portugal Full

(*) Entities incorporated in the scope of securitisation operations, recorded in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Group's continued involvement, determined based on the percentage held in the residual interests (equity piece) of the respective vehicles and to the extent that the Group substantially owns the risks and rewards associated with the underlying assets and has the ability to affect these same risks and rewards.

The main impacts of the consolidation of these structured entities on the Group's accounts are the following:

31.12.2024 30.09.2025
Cash and cash equivalents 17,527,712 18,896,588
Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss (Derivatives) 6,283,361 3,212,722

Changes in the consolidation perimeter

During the period ended 31 December 2024, the following changes in the consolidated perimeter occurred: 1) with the sale of 26.3% of the equity interest in CTT IMO Yield, the group now holds 73.7% of the entity; 2) with the acquisition of the minority equity interests in Open Lockers held by the remaining shareholders of the entity, the Group now holds 100% of this entity and; 3) with the subscription of a capital increase by a third party in Banco CTT, the group now holds 91.29% of this entity, and indirectly, of its subsidiary 321 Crédito.

(**) Entities left the consolidation perimeter during the period of 2023.

In the nine-months period ended 30 September 2025, the consolidation perimeter was changed following the acquisition of sole control of Compañia Auxiliar al Cargo Expres, S.A.U. ("Cacesa"). On April 30, 2025 (closing date of the transaction), CTT, through its subsidiary CTT Expresso, completed the acquisition of the entire capital of Cacesa, as announced on December 18, 2024, a Spanish company well-positioned in the international e-commerce customs market.

The acquisition was made for an initial price of 91,000,000 euros, subject to adjustments, based on the accounts prepared at the closing of the deal, essentially related to the net cash position and a variable price, defined on the basis of the Closing date. The sum of the initial fixed price, the variable price and the net cash position amounted o 109,840,111 Euros. The amount of 3,051,598 Euros relating to liabilities assumed was deducted from this figure, and the final amount of 106,788,512 euros was settled in full by monetary means.

The Goodwill is essentially attributable to the operational synergies expected to be captured with impact on the Group's results. The main synergies in terms of revenue are expected to result from the expansion of last-mile delivery services and integration with CTT's customs processes. Cost synergies are expected to materialize through increased efficiency in customs processing operations and the elimination of duplication in overhead costs. With this acquisition, the Group aims to further strengthen its leading e-commerce presence in the Iberian Peninsula and expand its portfolio of e-commerce services and solutions.

Thus, the initial recognition of Goodwill determined upon the purchase of Cacesa is demonstrated as follows:

Initial recognition
50,169,663
24,516,970
25,652,693
106,788,512
3,051,598
84,187,418

The Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) is underway, and the Group is still evaluating the assumptions and criteria for assessing the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, and will be completed within 12 months after the acquisition date as provided for in IFRS 3 – Business Combinations, and the final value may differ from that currently presented.

The Group incurred expenses related to the acquisition of Cacesa of, approximately, 2.3 million Euros, namely financial advisory and legal costs. These expenses were recorded under External Supplies and Services in the Income Statement by nature for the periods ended December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2025.

The assets acquired from Cacesa are detailed as follows:

Cacesa Initial recognition
Non current assets
Tangible fixed assets 5,751,769
Intangible assets 86,918
Investments in subsidiaries 3,671,326
Other non current assets 578,444
Deferred tax assets 727,944
Non current assets 10,816,400
Current assets
Account receivables 7,947,054
Group companies 558,466
Other current assets 11,773,706
Cash and cash equivalents 19,074,038
Current assets 39,353,263
Assets acquired (Cacesa) 50,169,663

The net book value of accounts receivable on the acquisition date amounts to 7,947,054 Euros, with no differences in relation to their fair value within the scope of IFRS 3.

Cacesa's and its subsidiaries results are presented as follows (relating to the period of May to September 2025):

Income Statement - from 01.05.2025 until 30.09.2025
Caption Amount
Sales and service rendered 53,919,005
Other operating income 11,351
53,930,356
Net profit for the period 8,103,190

If the transaction had occurred at the beginning of the reporting period (January 1, 2025), the CTT Group's consolidated income and consolidated net profit for the period, would have been approximately 915.1 million euros and 32.8 million euros, respectively.

Additionally, on July 29, 2025, CTT Logística acquired exclusive control of Decopharma Portugal - Logistics Services, Lda. through the acquisition of all shares representing its share capital. Decopharma specializes in logistics solutions for the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries.

The acquisition was completed for an initial price of 2,000,000 Euros, subject to adjustments based on the accounts prepared at the close of the transaction, primarily related to the net cash position. After the aforementioned adjustments were made, the final price of 2,135,148 Euros was settled in full in cash.

With this transaction, the CTT Group strengthens its position as an e-commerce logistics operator, expanding its offer to include complete logistics solutions across the entire value chain—including products that require specific storage and transportation conditions. The recognized goodwill is essentially based on the synergies that the strengthening of CTT Group's presence in a growing sector

euros) and ii) Mortgage loans: net allocation of 179 thousand euros (30 September 2024: allocation of 44 thousand euros), which justifies the increase of 2,031 thousand euros in the impairment loss of Credit to banking clients in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period last year.

The movements in impairment losses by stages, in the year ended on 31 December 2024 and the ninemonths period ended 30 September 2025, they are detailed as follows:

Sensitivity Analysis

Given the high uncertainty of macroeconomic projections and considering that deviations from the presented scenarios may have an impact on the value of estimated expected losses, sensitivity analyses were carried out on the distribution of the portfolio by stage and the respective impact on impairment.

The Group considers that the parameters assumed to be more sensitive or susceptible to changes in the economic cycle are the Probability of Default (PD – Probability of Default) for most portfolios and the Loss Given Default (LGD – Loss Given Default) for the case of the Auto Loan portfolio.

In this context, a sensitivity analysis was carried out to determine what would be the impairment of the global portfolio if those parameters suffered a relative deterioration of 10%, conclude that the increase in impairment would be 1,038 thousand euros, corresponding to about 2%.

11. Prepayments

As at 31 December 2024 and 30 September 2025, the Prepayments included in current and noncurrent assets and current and non-current liabilities showed the following composition:

31.12.2024 30.09.2025

8,294,793 9,742,528
9,271,094 10,955,380

The change in the caption "Other deferred assets" essentially results from the renewal of software license contracts and insurance contracts.

The caption "Contractual liabilities" results from the application of IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers and stands for the amount already invoiced, but not yet recognised as revenue because the performance obligations have not yet been met as recommended by the standard.

The "Contractual liabilities" essentially refer to amounts related to stamps and prepaid postage of priority mail in the amount of 1,139,741 Euros (947,693 Euros on 31 December 2024), whose revenue is expected to be recognised in July 2025 (estimate of 80% of the item's value) and the remaining during 2025, and to objects invoiced and not delivered on 30 September 2025 in the express segment, in the amount of 2,872,876 Euros (3,310,751 Euros as at 31 December 2024), whose revenue is recognised upon delivery in the following month.

The revenue recognised in the period, included in the balance of Contractual liabilities at the beginning of the period amounted to 4,258,444 Euros.

No "Assets resulting from contracts" associated with the application of IFRS 15 - Revenue from contracts with customers were recognised.

12. Cash and cash equivalents

As at 31 December 2024 and 30 September 2025, cash and cash equivalents correspond to the amount of cash, sight deposits, term deposits and cash investments on the monetary market, net of bank overdrafts and equivalent short-term bank financing, and is detailed as follows:

31.12.2024 30.09.2025
Cash 61,304,517 53,784,609
Demand deposits 109,238,418 128,979,807
Deposits at Central Banks 40,859,143 47,866,825
Deposits at other credit institutions 30,917,611 33,102,962
Term deposits 73,592,459 17,837,621
Cash and cash equivalents (Statement of Financial Position) 315,912,146 281,571,823
Demand deposits at Banco de Portugal (40,447,300) (41,978,200)
Checks for collection / Checks clearing (5,283,468) (5,961,045)
Impairment of Demand and term deposits 1,846 795
Cash and cash equivalents (Cash Flow Statement) 270,183,224 233,633,374

The caption "Sight deposits at Bank of Portugal" includes mandatory deposits in order to meet the legal requirements to maintain a minimum cash reserve in accordance with the provisions of Regulation (EU) No. 1358/2011 of European Central Bank of 14 December 2011, which states that the minimum cash requirements kept as demand deposits at Bank of Portugal amounts to 1% of the average amount of deposits and other liabilities, over each reserve maintenance period. As at 30 September 2025, the daily average of the minimum mandatory availability for the period in force was 41,978,200 Euros.

Therefore, the caption Demand deposits at Bank of Portugal includes, as at 30 September 2025, a total amount of demand deposits of 47,866,825 Euros (31 December 2024: 40,859,143 Euros).

The Eurozone banks are required to hold a certain amount of funds in their current accounts with the national central bank. These funds are called "mandatory minimum reserves". The amount of funds to be held as minimum reserves is calculated based on banks' balance sheets before the start of each maintenance period. Currently, banks are obliged to hold, at their respective national central bank, a minimum of 1% of specific liabilities, mainly customer deposits of up to 2 years.

From the reserve counting period starting on 30 October 2019, the ECB introduced the tiering regime, which exempted part of the excess reserves deposited by credit institutions with the central bank from the negative remuneration then associated with the deposit facility rate. This tiering regime ceased to apply on 27 July 2022, following the Governing Council's decision to increase the deposit facility rate to a non-negative amount. Until October 2022, the interest rate paid was linked to the interest rate on main refinancing operations. It was then reduced to reflect the deposit facility rate, and in July 2023 it was set at 0%.

The caption "Outstanding checks/ Checks clearing" represents checks drawn by third parties on other credit institutions, which are in collection.

Additionally, applicable accounting standards determine that gains or losses on the sale of own shares are booked in reserves.

On 27 September 2017, a loan contract between CTT and BBVA and Bankinter was signed, for an initial period of 5 years and for a total amount of 90 million Euros, with the possibility of using the funds until September 2018. As no amount was used until the mentioned date, the contract was renegotiated on 27 September 2018, having the total amount been altered to 75 million Euros, while maintaining the one-year term for the use of the funds. Subsequently, due to the non-use of all the funds, the limit was reduced throughout the contract period. As at 30 September 2025, the referred used amount, net of commissions and added by the amount of interests to be paid in the following period corresponded to 9,468,654 Euros. By the Group decision, the remaining available amount will not be used.

On 22 April 2019, a simple credit agreement was signed between CTT and Novo Banco for a period of 60 months, with a grace period of two years, and may be extended for a period of 24 months, for a total amount of 35 million Euros. In subsequent periods, the limit was reduced due to non-use of all funds. As at 30 September 2025, the amount presented in the statement of financial position net of commissions and added by the amount of interests to be paid in the following period, in the total amount of 7,119,147 Euros.

As disclosed to the market on 7 March 2023, CTT contracted 35 million euros in bank loans in the form of commercial paper, indexed to sustainability goals, maturing in 2026, with two financial institutions - Novo Banco, S.A. and Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria S.A. - Portuguese Branch.

These bank loans are set within CTT's Sustainability Related Financing Reference Framework that was the subject of a Second Party Opinion disclosed by S&P Global Ratings. Therefore, the referred financing lines are indexed to the goal of reducing carbon emissions of CTT's activity (scopes 1, 2 and 3 emissions) by at least 30% by 2025 in relation to 2013, which is validated by the Science Based Targets initiative and aligned with the best practices of the sector.

As at 30 September 2025, the amount used presented in the statement of financial position, net of commissions and plus the amount of interest to be paid in the following period, amounts to 14,990,626 Euros in the case of BBVA/Bankinter. In the case of Novo Banco, and taking into account that it is not currently being used the amount of (37,011) Euros relates only to commissions. These commercial paper programmes are shown in non-current liabilities, since the Group's practice/expectation will be to use the contracts during their period of validity and having the right to roll-over these loans.

Bank loans obtained are subject to compliance with financial covenants, namely clauses of Cross default, Negative Pledge and Assets Disposal's limits. Additionally, the loans obtained also require compliance with rations of Net Debt over EBITDA and financial autonomy. Compliance with financial covenants is regularly monitored by the Group and is measured by counterparties on an annual basis based on the Financial Statements as at 31 December. As at 31 December 2024, the Group is in compliance with financial covenants.

Bond loans

On April 15 2025, CTT signed a financing agreement with a syndicate of banks (BBVA, Novo Banco, Montepio, and CGD) to finance the acquisition of Cacesa, a Spanish company well-positioned in the international e-commerce customs market, as announced to the market on December 18 2024. This financing, in the amount of 110 million Euros, is structured as a bond loan for a total term of 6 years with a grace period of 1.5 years. It is subject to compliance with a set of financial covenants, including control clauses over materially relevant subsidiaries, a Negative Pledge, and limits on the value of Asset Disposal, as well as compliance with net financial debt-to-EBITDA ratios for CTT and CTT Expresso, and is measured by counterparties on an annual basis based on the Financial Statements as at 31 December. It also allows for the possibility of conversion into a Sustainability-Linked Bond issuance.

The net amount between increases and reversals of provisions was recorded in the consolidated income statement under the caption Provisions, net and amounted to 1,201,336 Euros as at 30 September 2024 and (1,046,402) Euros as at 30 September 2025.

A provision should only be used for expenditures for which the provision was originally recognised, so the Group reverse the provision when it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources that incorporate future economic benefits will be necessary to settle the obligation.

Litigations

The provisions for litigations were set up to face the liabilities resulting from lawsuits brought against the Group and are estimated based on information from their lawyers as well as on the termination of the mentioned lawsuits. The final amount and the timing of the outflows regarding the provision for litigations depend on the outcome of the respective proceedings.

The reversal of the provision for litigations, in the amount of (706,142) Euros as at 31 December 2024 and (608,579) Euros as at 30 September 2025, essentially results from lawsuits whose decision, which was made known in the course of 2024 or 2025, respectively, proved to be favourable to the Group, or, not being favourable, resulted in the condemnation to pay amounts that proved to be lower than the estimated amounts (and reflected in this provision caption).

Other provisions

In previous years, a provision was recognised in CTT Expresso branch in Spain to face the notification issued by the Spanish National Commission on Markets and Competition ("CNMC"). This process was originated during the year 2016, based on the alleged contrary action to article 1 of the Law 15/2017 ("Law on Competition Defense") and article 101º of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union ("TFUE"). This notification amounted to 3,148,845 Euros and, in previous years, has already been subject of an appeal to the Spanish Audiencia Nacional (National High Court). Regarding this matter, CTT Expresso branch in Spain submitted a formal request to the coercive measure suspension, and the request was accepted under the condition of a guarantee presentation – a procedure that was duly and timely adopted. During 2022, the Spanish Audiencia Nacional dismissed the appeal and ratified the fine of 3,148,845 Euros plus final and unappealable costs. Regarding this subject, the provision booked in previous years, which amounted to 3,200,000 Euros, resulted from the evaluation carried out by the Group's legal advisors. On 7 July 2023, CTT Expresso, a branch in Spain, filed an appeal with the Federal Supreme Court in Spain against the decision of the National High Court and on 17 November 2023, a public hearing of the appeal was scheduled for 20 February 2024. On 8 May 2024, the Supreme Court issued an order in which the appeal filed was not granted. On 20 May 2024, the CNMC requested payment of the sanction in the amount of 3,148,845 Euros, which was settled, which justifies the use of the recorded provision.

The amount provisioned in 321 Crédito amounting to 253,585 Euros as at 30 September 2025 (977,732 Euros at 31 December 2024) mainly results from the management assessment regarding the possibility of materialising tax contingencies and other processes.

As at 30 September 2025, in addition to the previously mentioned situations, this caption also includes:

  • the amount of 177,433 Euros to cover costs of dismantlement of tangible fixed assets and/or removal of facilities and restoration of the site;
  • the amount of 309,007 Euros regarding the liability, recognised in the company CTT Expresso, with a labour legal proceeding;
  • the amount of 4,592,662 Euros to cover costs of operational vehicles refurbishment. The increase recognized in the period ended 30 September 2025, followed the revision of the calculation of the reference values associated with the refurbishment of vehicles, as a result of the history observed and the contracts negotiated in the meantime;
  • the amount of commitments for guarantees provided to third parties to cover promotional contests in the amount of 601,843 Euros.
  • the amount of 1,348,000 Euros relating to contingencies identified following the acquisition of Cacesa. However, as these contingencies were identified during due diligence, they were taken into account in the share purchase agreement, which is why CTT Expresso recognized an asset of the same amount, as required by IAS/IFRS.

Restructuring

It is essential for the Group to implement policies that promote rationalisation, adaptation and increased productivity of all available resources, with reflection in the organisational management model of its human resources. In this context, in the previous year, actions were taken leading to the reorganisation of services, which led to the approval of a Human Resources optimisation programme. This programme is based on the conclusion of Suspension Agreements, Pre-Retirements and Termination Agreements by Mutual Agreement, and on 31 December 2023, a provision in the amount of 13,441,229 Euros was created for the respective operationalisation. This provision was recognised under the caption Staff Costs. As of 31 December 2024, regarding the agreements performed during

2024, an amount of (10,263,283) Euros was transferred to the caption employee benefits in the statement of financial position.

As at 31 December 2024 and 30 September 2025, the Banco CTT Group had provided guarantees and other commitments as detailed below:

Grupo
31.12.2024 30.09.2025

Commitments made to third parties
Revocable commitments
Credit Lines 27,916,003 45,042,043

The amount recorded as Guarantees provided includes, fundamentally, securities given as collateral to guarantee the settlement of interbank transactions.

The amount recorded as Guarantees received includes, fundamentally, guarantees and mortgages on real estate to collateralize mortgage credit transactions.

Revocable and irrevocable commitments present contractual agreements for the granting of credit to the Group's customers (for example, bank overdrafts lines) which, in general, are contracted for fixed terms or with other expiry requirements. Substantially all credit granting commitments in force require customers to maintain certain requirements verified at the time of contracting them.

Notwithstanding the particularities of these commitments, the assessment of these transactions follows the same basic principles as any other commercial transaction, namely the solvency of the customer, and the Group requires that these transactions be duly collateralized when necessary. Since some of these funds are expected to expire without having been used, the amounts indicated do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Postal financial services

This caption records mainly the amounts collected related to taxes, insurance, savings certificates and other money orders, whose settlement date should occur in the month following the end of the period.

The decrease in this caption is explained mainly by a higher balance at the end of 2024, due to a significant flow in the subscription of savings certificates by consumers, driven by the review in October 2024 of the maximum limits for placing these products per subscriber, combined with a situation of lower interest rates, which made the product attractive again.

The underlying assets of the Ulisses Finance No.3 operation were not derecognised from the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, as the Group substantially maintained the risks and rewards associated with their holding.

Additionally, the Group, through 321 Crédito, maintained, as at 30 September 2025, the Fénix operation as the only live unrecognised securitisation operation. The Group's involvement in this operation is limited to providing servicing services.

Long-term variable remuneration ("LTVR")

2020/2022 Term

The long-term variable remuneration model for the 2020/2022 term was based on the participation of CTT's Board members and Top Management in the Options Plan.

The aforementioned Option Plan provided for the attribution of options to its participants that conferred the right to attribution of shares representing CTT's share capital. The Options Plan established five tranches of options that are distinguished only by their different exercise price or strike price. In the case of management, the Board Members approved the granting of a global number of 1,200,000 options, subject to the conditions defined for the corporate bodies.

The exercise date of all the options was 1 January 2023, given the end of the 3-year term of office 2020/2022.

The Executive Committee Options Plan provides for the financial settlement of 25% of the options (cash settlement) and the physical settlement of 75% of the options (equity settlement). The plan for CTT's Top Management provides for the physical settlement of 100% of the options.

The plan's settlement conditions were defined as follows: 50% of the LTVR was settled on the fifth trading day immediately following the date of the annual general meeting of the Company that took place in 20 April 2023, half by way of financial settlement in cash, in the case of the Executive Committee, (i.e. 25% of the options) and the other half (i.e. 25% of the options) by way of physical settlement through the delivery of CTT shares. In the case of Top Management, the 50% of the LTVR settled on this date will be settled through the physical delivery of CTT shares; The remaining 50% of the LTVR (i.e. 50% of the options) are settled through the delivery of CTT shares (physical settlement), in 2 tranches of 1/2 of the shares retained, respectively: (i) on the fifth trading day immediately following the end of the month after the date of approval of the accounts relating to financial year 2023 at an annual general meeting of the Company that took place in 30 April 2024; and (ii) on the fifth trading day immediately following the end of the month after the date of approval of the accounts for the financial year 2024 at an annual general meeting of the Company to be held in 2025, or on 31 May 2025 (whichever date occurs later) and subject to the positive performance of the Company in each of the financial years 2021 to 2024, respectively for each tranche.

Taking into account the end of the three-year term of office 2020/2022, the Remuneration Committee, in accordance with the Options Plan, has determined, on 1 January 2023, the number of shares to be attributed to each participant as LTVR (which attribution and settlement being subject to the rules set out in the Options Plan, described above). This determination was made through a study carried out by an independent entity.

Considering the above, the allocation of the following number of shares to each participant by way of LTVR was determined:

Participant CEO CFO Other executive
directors (three
members)
Total
Shares 81,629 46,645 104,949 233,226

In the case of Top Management, a total of 127,103 shares to be awarded were calculated.

As of 31 December 2024, considering the delivery of the second tranche, an amount of 841,648 Euros was derecognized under the caption "Reserves" in equity, corresponding to the proportional value of the physical settlement that occurred (note 15). This amount was derecognized in exchange for the value of own shares delivered within the scope of this operation. The difference between the two amounts, amounted to 512,156 Euros.

In the period ended 30 September 2025, 92,921 own shares were delivered to CTT's Executive Directors and top management, corresponding to the third and final tranche of the Long-Term Variable

Remuneration for the 2020-2022 term. With this delivery, an amount of 840,000 euros was derecognized under "Reserves" in equity, relating to the proportional value of the shares delivered in 2025 (note 15). This amount was derecognized against the value of the own shares delivered following this operation. The difference between the two amounts was 374,602 euros.

2023/2025 Term

The long-term variable remuneration model for the 2023/2025 term is based on the participation of executive Directors in the Option Plan, which is reflected in the remuneration policy approved by the General Shareholders' Meeting on 23 April 2024, based on in the Remuneration Committee's proposal.

Similarly, the Board of Directors implemented an Options Plan aimed at CTT Top management, along the same lines as the program approved for the board members.

The aforementioned Option Plan provides for the following main rules applicable to the attribution and exercise of options and the financial settlement and delivery and retention of shares under the LTVR:

  • a. The Options Plan regulates the attribution to its participants of options that confer the right to attribution of shares representing CTT's share capital, subject to certain conditions applicable to the exercise and settlement of the options;
  • b. The Option Plan establishes the number of options attributed to be exercised by the Plan's participants (differentiated between CEO, CFO, CCO and top management), as per the table below, with the date of attribution corresponding to the date of approval of said plan at the General Meeting;
  • c. Each Participant will be entitled to receive three distinct tranches of Options, each with a different Exercise Price:
Number of options per participant
Tranche CEO CFO CCO Strike Price
1 1,166,667 833,334 833,334 € 4.00
2 1,166,667 833,333 833,333 € 6.00
3 1,166,666 833,333 833,333 € 8.00

In the case of the top management, the Board of Directors approved the allocation of a total number of 2,010,000 options, subject to the conditions defined for the board members.

  • d. The exercise date of all options corresponds to 1 January 2026, taking into account the end of the 3-year term 2023/2025;
  • e. The number of Shares to be settled for each tranche of Options will be calculated based on the application of the following formula:

No. of Shares = No. of Options exercised x [(Share Price – Strike Price) / Share Price]

Where:

Strike Price: corresponds to the Strike Price determined in the table above; It is,

Share Price: corresponds to the arithmetic average of the prices, weighted by the respective volumes, of the Company's share transactions occurring on the Euronext Lisbon regulatory market, in Stock Exchange sessions that take place in the 120 days prior to the Exercise Date.

  • f. The Options Plan provides for the financial settlement of 25% of the options (cash settlement) and the physical settlement of 75% of the options (equity settlement), without prejudice to, exceptionally and in a scenario where the number of own shares held by CTT it is not enough, to determine that the Remuneration Committee establishes a compensation mechanism through the allocation of a cash amount and financial settlement of options whose physical settlement is not possible. The CTT top management options plan provides for the physical settlement of 100% of the options, with the exception of the options to be attributed to the members of the extended executive committee, whose plan also provides for the financial settlement of 25% of the options (cash settlement) and the physical settlement of 75% of the options (equity settlement);
  • g. If shares are allocated based on stock market performance and verification of the Company's positive performance under the terms defined in the plan, the options will be subject to settlement over a deferral/retention period;
  • h. 50% of the RVLP is settled on the fifth trading day immediately following the date of the Company's annual general meeting approving the accounts for the 2025 financial year to be held in 2026, subject to verification of positive performance in relation to each of the financial years 2023, 2024 and 2025, half via financial settlement in cash (i.e., 25% of the options on a proportional basis with respect to each of its 3 tranches) and the other half (i.e., 25% of the options equally on a proportional in relation to each of its 3 tranches) via physical settlement through the delivery of CTT shares. In the case of the top management, with the exception of members of the extended executive committee, the 50% of the LTVR settled on this date is made through physical delivery of CTT shares.;
  • i. The remaining 50% of the RVLP (i.e., 50% of the options equally on a proportional basis in relation to each tranches) are settled through the delivery of CTT shares (physical settlement), in 2 tranches of 1/2 of the shares retained, respectively: (i) on the fifth trading day immediately following the end of the month after the date of approval of the accounts for the 2026 financial year at the Company's annual general meeting to be held in 2027, or on 31 May 2027 (depending on the later date) and subject to the positive performance of the Company in each of the financial years from 2023 to 2026; and (ii) on the fifth trading day immediately following the end of the month after the date of approval of the accounts for the 2027 financial year at the Company's annual general meeting to be held in 2028, or on 31 May 2028 (depending on the date occurring later) and subject to the positive performance of the Company in each of the financial years from 2023 to 2027, respectively for each tranche;
  • j. The exercise of options and their settlement are also subject to eligibility conditions, which are, as a rule, remaining in office during the term, the absence of situations of material noncompliance with the Options Plan and the failure to verify situations that give rise to application of adjustment mechanisms;

On the date of attribution, the determination of the fair value of the options attributed was carried out through a study carried out by an independent entity on the date of attribution of the benefit. The model used to value the action plan was the Monte Carlo simulation model.

The amount relating to the share plan relating to corporate bodies and top management, recognized on the period ended 30 September 2025, amounted to 4,353,870 Euros, with the financial settlement component, recognized under the caption "Employee Benefits", in the amount of 2,786,968 Euros and the settlement in instruments recognized under the caption "other reserves", in the amount of 1,566,902 Euros (note 15). The increase observed in this item results from the update of the estimate of the amount associated with the cash settlement component, due to the performance of CTT shares and the expectation that this performance will be maintained. This estimate will be updated at the end of the reporting period based on a study carried out by an independent entity.

Annual variable remuneration ("AVR"):

In the period ended 31 December 2023, the amount of 980,387 Euros was recognised as an estimated annual variable remuneration for members of the Governing Bodies.

In the period ended 31 December 2024, the amount of 738,831 Euros was recognised as an estimate of the annual variable remuneration for members of the Governing Bodies. In 2025, the final amount to be awarded was calculated and 50% of the amount has already been paid, as stipulated in the Remuneration Regulations.

Employee benefits

Companies with head office in Portugal are subject to tax on their profit through Corporate Income Tax ("IRC") at the normal tax rate of 20%, whilst the municipal tax is established at a maximum rate of 1.5% of taxable profit, and State surcharge is 3% of taxable profit between 1,500,000 Euros and 7,500,00 Euros, 5% of taxable profit between 7,500,000 and to 35,000,000 Euros and 9% of the taxable profit above 35,000,000 Euros.

When calculating the corporate tax and when complying with tax obligations, special corporate tax regimes are also considered, as is the case of CTT IMO Yield, S.A. - SIC (Real State Company) and 1520 Innovation Fund, Venture Capital Fund, entities based in Portugal.

Corporate income tax is levied on CTT and its subsidiaries CTT – Expresso, S.A., Payshop Portugal, S.A, CTT Contacto, S.A. and Banco CTT, S.A., 321 Crédito – Instituição Financeira de Crédito, S.A., CTT Soluções Empresariais, S.A., CTT IMO – Sociedade Imobiliária, S.A., NewSpring Services, S.A., MedSpring, S.A., CTT IMO Yield, S.A. and CTT Logística, S.A. as a result of the option for the Special Regime for the Taxation of Groups of Companies ("RETGS") application.

In the 2024 financial year, taking into account that it no longer complies with all the requirements set out in that regime, CTT IMO Yield, meanwhile converted into a Closed Real Estate ("SIC"), left the RETGS.

During the year ended 31 December 2024 and in the nine-months period ended 30 September 2025, the tax losses carried forward are detailed as follows:

Regarding CTT – Expresso, S.A., branch in Spain, the tax losses of the year 2014 may be carried forward in the next 18 years and the tax losses of the years 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 have no time limit for deduction. As at 31 December 2024, the amount of 9,567,078 Euros of

deferred tax assets on accumulated tax losses was recognised, taking into account, on the one hand, Spanish tax rules, as well as the fact that the current business plan foresees the generation of taxable profits in the coming years, in line with the relevant increase in the operational and financial performance of this entity. As of 30 September 2025 the deferred tax assets regarding tax losses amounts to 8,588,395 Euros.

Regarding to CTT Expresso/ Transporta, the tax losses presented refer to the losses of Transporta for the years 2014 and 2015 and 2017 and 2018, since in 2019 this company was incorporated into CTT Expresso, which may be reported in one or more subsequent tax periods, in accordance with the rules established in the income tax code. The recognition of deferred tax assets related to Transporta's tax losses is supported by the estimate of future taxable profits of CTT Expresso, based on the company's business plan.

The sensitivity analysis performed allows us to conclude that a 1% reduction in the underlying rate of deferred tax would imply an increase in the income tax for the period of about 2.74 million Euros.

SIFIDE

The Group recognises an estimate of the tax credit that was submitted for certification by the competent authority (ANI – Agência Nacional de Inovação) in the period to which the investments relate.

Regarding R&D expenses incurred by the Group in the financial year of 2022, with the submission of the application, these amounted to 4,169,551 Euros, with the Group having the possibility of benefiting from a income tax deduction estimated at 1,648,062 euros. As of 30 September 2025, the tax credit granted by the Certifying Commission amounted to 1,597,634 Euros, with the remainder awaiting approval.

Regarding the expenses incurred with R&D by the Group in the 2023 financial year, with the submission of the application, these amounted to 8,054,187 Euros, with the Group estimating a deduction of income tax estimated at 4,391,472 Euros. According to historical information, the CTT Group has a high success rate in granting the tax credit submitted to ANI, with no significant corrections having occurred in previous years to the amounts self-assessed in tax form, therefore, and in accordance with the provisions of IFRIC 23, a tax credit was considered through the self-assessment made in 2023 Tax form, in the amount of 3,816,530 Euros in the Group.

As for the 2024 financial year, the expenses incurred with R&D by the Group amounted to 5,280,982 Euros, with the Group estimating a deduction of income tax estimated at 2,029,235 Euros.

Pillar II

The transition of the world to a global village, the increasing speed of transactions, the streamlining of commercial relations, among other phenomena, challenge current tax rules, forcing an inevitable renewal and combination of efforts between jurisdictions, governments and national tax policies - in essence, there will be room for tax harmonization with regard to corporate income tax.

In this context, the OECD initiated the BEPS (Base Erosion and Profit Shifting) project, which resulted in the adoption of 15 actions/plans to be followed and which indicate tax standards to be adopted and implemented by national governments in order to abolish avoidance and evasion tax, aiming at the effective taxation of economic activities in the jurisdiction(s) where the respective profits are generated and in which the added value is actually generated.

In 2021, an agreement was reached between the members of the G20 to implement what is commonly known as Pillar II, referring to the method and criteria for taxing profits obtained by multinational entities, as well as the way in which tax collection power is allocated between states of tax revenue.

According to Pillar II, companies included in multinational groups with an annual global turnover exceeding 750 million euros will be subject, regardless of the jurisdiction to which they belong, to a minimum corporate income tax rate of 15%.

The imposition of this minimum rate aims to prevent, based on abusive tax practices and policies, imbalances between tax rates and regimes in different jurisdictions or illicit exploitation due to lack of liability to or payment of tax.

EU Directive 2022/2523 required that the acceding Member States should transpose it by 31 December 2023, but this did not happen in some jurisdictions, including Portugal, which would comply with its obligation to transpose the Directive with the official publication of Law No. 41/2024 on 8 November 2024.

Since the Group falls within the scope of the Directive, it has carried out an assessment of the possible impact on each of the jurisdictions in which it operates in light of the rules of the Directive and the published national legislation, defining the internal and reporting tasks to be carried out in this context.

Compliance with tax and reporting obligations relating to Pillar II must be carried out in conjunction with the information reported in the CbCR (Country by Country Report) that has been submitted and prepared by the CTT Group, as well as in other reports that have been and will be carried out.

As an innovative regime, a transitional regime is foreseen, particularly in terms of deadline, for the application of the standards and allowing progressive adaptation to this new regime.

Furthermore, certain jurisdictions will be excluded from the scope of application of such standards.

On the other hand, safe-harbour clauses are provided for, which are characterised by waiving, as long as certain requirements and/or limits are met, the effective application of compliance with certain obligations and removing the subjection to the aforementioned minimum rate.

The analysis carried out, which included verification, through tests of the Group's financial information and the effective verification of objective requirements, allowed us to conclude that in none of the relevant jurisdictions in this context will the tax referred to in Pillar II be due.

These conclusions result from the interpretation of the rules of the Directive and national legislation, as well as from international doctrine specialising in international taxation and are based on the aforementioned exceptional or special regimes.

Considering the relevance of Pillar II and its potential impact on the Group, changes in fact that may alter the conclusions of the analysis carried out will be monitored and assessed in the relevant jurisdictions, particularly those resulting from differences in reality compared to the business plan or the occurrence of any corporate and/or tax changes.

On the other hand, we will monitor legislative changes and the development of interpretative positions of the standards in order to anticipate their respective impacts on the Group.

The amendment to IAS 12 introduced a mandatory temporary exception for the recognition of deferred taxes under Pillar II, which will be considered and followed by the Group in its reporting.

Other information

Pursuant to the legislation in force in Portugal, income tax returns are subject to review and correction by the tax authorities for a period of four years (five years for Social Security), except when there have been tax losses, tax benefits have been received, or when inspections, claims or challenges are in

progress, in which cases, depending on the circumstances, these years are extended or suspended. Therefore, CTT's income tax returns from 2021 and onwards may still be reviewed and corrected.

The Board of Directors believes that any corrections arising from reviews/inspections by the tax authorities of these income tax returns will not have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements as at 30 September 2025.

27. Related parties

28. Other information

With regard to the legal proceedings relating to ANACOM's Decision regarding the quality of service parameters and performance targets applicable to the universal postal service provision, of July 2018, the Government's appeal against the decision of the Arbitration Court continues, which acknowledges that ANACOM's decision constituted an abnormal and impressionable change in circumstances, causing damages amounting to 1,869,482 euros. The administrative actions against ANACOM, the first concerning the same decision and the second concerning the deliberation of December 2018 regarding the new measurement procedures to be applied to the indicators, had no relevant developments. On 24 January 2024, CTT was notified of the court decision ordering the Government to pay CTT the sum of 2,410,413 Euros. The Government challenged the decision and the respective proceedings are ongoing. Since this appeal does not suspend the effects of the judgment, following the publication of the above decision, CTT initiated enforcement proceedings on 1 April 2025, awaiting the normal course of the process.

In the administrative offence proceedings, ANACOM decided to impose a fine of 830,000 Euros for alleged violation of the procedure for measuring quality of service indicators (QSIs) in 2016 and 2017. The Lisbon Court of Appeal reduced the single fine to 275,000 Euros. The outcome of the appeal on procedural issues is still pending, and the amount may still change.

Following the proposal to apply contractual fines in the amount of 753 thousand euros, on 4 August 2022, CTT filed an appeal against the decision of the arbitration court which, on 1 July 2024, the arbitration court decided, with one dissenting vote, to reduce the overall amount of the fines by just 51,000 Euros. On 30 April 2025, the Supreme Administrative Court (STA) ruled on the appeal and overturned the decision to impose fines on CTT by the Secretary of State for Infrastructure, due to the untimeliness and lack of competence in applying them. Considering that, in August 2024, the Government had already returned the amount of 51,000 Euros to CTT (following the arbitration decision), so the amount now being claimed is 702,000 Euros.

For the same facts relating to 2015 and 2016 (various situations concerning the distribution and publication of information in the post offices), on 19 April 2024, CTT was notified of ANACOM's accusation that it had committed administrative offences, and a fine of 398,750 Euros was imposed. An appeal was filed with the Court of Appeal, which acquitted CTT of 4 administrative offenses initially imputed and reduced the fine to 200,000 euros. However, the decision regarding procedural issues of producing evidence in the first instance, which was also the subject of the appeal, was upheld, and CTT appealed, pending final decision.

On 23 February 2023, CTT was notified to comment on a new proposal for the application of contractual fines submitted by ANACOM to the Government, in relation to the alleged contractual breach of the quality of service obligation in the years 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019. CTT submitted its statement on 6 April 2023, in which it defends there is no basis in fact or in law for establishing any contractual liability and requests additional evidence. The application of contractual fines and the respective amount depends on the further steps of the administrative procedure, which remains without relevant developments.

The lawsuit filed on 18 January 2022 by the companies Vasp Premium – Entrega Personalizada de Publicações, LDA. (Vasp) and Iberomail – Correio Internacional, S.A., (Iberomail) against CTT before the Competition, Regulation & Supervision Court, seeking the conviction of CTT for abuse of dominant position is ongoing, is currently in the hearing phase. CTT follows the best market practices and reiterates that it considers the request to be totally unfounded, as this lawsuit concern facts assessed by the Competition Authority (AdC) in the scope of a proceeding that was closed with the imposition of commitments, which CTT has implemented and reports annually to AdC.

Strategic partnership between CTT and DHL

As of 19 December 2024, CTT and Deutsche Post International, B.V. ("DHL" or "DHL Group") established a joint venture partnership with a view to joining forces in Portugal and Spain and establish a high-performing parcel venture for e-commerce – in B2C and B2B segments – with an estimated daily capacity exceeding one million shipments and out-of-home services in Iberia.

This strategic partnership is poised to generate efficiencies and address the growth opportunities of the e-commerce and parcel delivery markets across Spain and Portugal. This collaboration is set to create a comprehensive pick-up and delivery network in Portugal and Spain.

To crystallise the partnership, (i) CTT Expresso will fully acquire DHL Parcel Portugal, Unipessoal Lda ("DHL Parcel Portugal"); (ii) CTT will further acquire an indirect 25% stake in DHL Parcel Iberia SL ("DHL Parcel Iberia"), through its holding company Danzas SL ("Danzas"), which is the sole shareholder of DHL Parcel Iberia and (iii) DHL will acquire a 25% stake in CTT Expresso. Both DHL Parcel Iberia and DHL Parcel Portugal are part to the e-commerce division of the DHL Group. Both Parties will grant each other an option to increase, in the future and upon the fulfilment of certain conditions, their mutual shareholdings up to a stake of 49% in the respective companies.

As part of this Agreement, the DHL e-commerce business in Portugal will fully be transferred to CTT Expresso. In Spain, the focus will be on enhancing both B2C and B2B services, with the aim to create a highly efficient network for parcel processing and last-mile delivery, enhancing customer experience across Iberia. CTT Expresso, including the CEP and lockers businesses in Portugal and in Spain and DHL Parcel Portugal, will continue to be fully consolidated by CTT, which will retain a 75% controlling stake, while DHL Parcel Iberia will be equity accounted by CTT with a 25% stake.

The Transaction values CTT Expresso at an Enterprise Value of 482 million euros, DHL Parcel Iberia at an Enterprise Value of €106 million and DHL Parcel Portugal at an Enterprise Value of 12 million euros. In addition, the Parties have agreed on value levers for CTT and DHL, not included in the Enterprise Value, that result in a net amount of 15 million euros to be paid by CTT in favour of DHL. Upon closing

of the initial phase of the Transaction and considering the Enterprise Values and the value levers, CTT is estimated to receive a net cash proceed from DHL amounting to 69 million euros, on a debt free / cash free basis. This amount will be confirmed, according to the accounts, at closing of the Transaction. This amount does not consider the acquisition of Cacesa, through CTT Expresso, as announced to the market and the general public on 18 December 2024.

The Joint Venture and corresponding transactions are subject to customary closing conditions, including applicable regulatory approvals. The Transaction will only be implemented after obtaining clearance under the relevant merger control legal requirements. The Transaction is expected to close in the 4th quarter of 2025 or 1st quarter of 2026

This Transaction represents a transformational milestone in CTT's journey to become a leading ecommerce logistics player in the Iberian Peninsula. The Transaction will further strengthen CTT's leadership position in Iberian e-commerce.
