I Defined as net debt of InPost S.A. Group as at Q2/2021 divided by the LTM Adjusted EBTDA of the InPost S.A. and Integer.pl Group (as InPost S.A. only acquired the Integer.pl Group in January 2021)

Following our exceptionally strong start to 2021, InPost had another great quarter in Q2. Following the unprecedented growth we saw in Q2 last year, we continued to outgrow the market, delivering 30% year-on-year revenue growth, expanded our margins and accelerated our progress on key initiatives to support our pan-European growth strategy.

While I expect the short term uncertainties from COVID-19 to continue, I am also certain that the accelerated shift to a digital economy is structural, driving an expanded e-commerce market opportunity, a greater focus on sustainability, and changing consumer preferences.

Over the course of the quarter, we further enhanced the scale of our ecosystem, with added convenience to consumers and improved the value proposition to our stakeholders. This included the continually growing number of "InPost Mobile" app users, reaching 7 million at the end of Q2, and our bestin-class net promoter score.

We also accelerated the pace of our APM deployments in both Poland and the U.K. as well as bringing new innovative solutions that enhance the overall consumer experience. Since the end of Q2, we deployed our 14,000th APM in Poland, having recently surpassed our 2,000th APM in the U.K.

I am also delighted with the progress of our "Green City" program, partnering with 6 of the leading cities in Poland to help reduce air pollution and enhance the wellbeing of our communities. This includes the deployment of our latest generation of APMs that will operate on renewable energy. In addition, I am proud that InPost has been recognized as one of the top employers in Poland as we continue to add top talent to support our longer-term objectives.

Immediately following the end of the quarter, we closed the acquisition of Mondial Relay, a major step in fulfilling our ambition to become Europe's leading out-of-home automated solution for e-commerce. We are executing our plan at pace and I am even more confident about the long-term value creation opportunities ahead of us.

BO)

For the six months ended 30 June 2021, total revenue and other operating income amounted to PLN 1,650.7 million, an increase of PLN 578.8 million, or 54% versus the six months ended 30 June 2020. In the second quarter of 2021, total revenue and other operating income reached PLN 857.6 million, an increase of PLN 197.7 million, or 30%, versus the second quarter of 2020.

Both the first half and second quarter of 2021 increases were driven by strong growth in Poland and, to a lesser extent, growth in the International segment. In addition, year-on-year growth in the first half of 2021 was also impacted by the unprecedented increase in demand related to initial period of COVID-19 restrictions, most notably in the second quarter of 2020.

Poland

As of 30 June 2021, the Company had 13,347 Automated Parcel Machines (APMs) in Poland, an increase of 4,619, or 53%, versus the six months ended 30 June 2020. In addition, the Company had 1.89 million lockers in Poland as of 30 June 2021, an increase of 0.8 million, or 74% versus the prior year period.

The Company believes that increasing the scale and density of its network to increase population coverage with new APM rollouts is a key element of its strategy to continuously improve the user experience for both merchant and consumers. As of 30 June 2021, 53% of the Polish population was located within a 7 minute walk of an InPost APM, compared to 47% as of 30 June 2020, and 50% at the end of 2020.

For the six months ended 30 June 2021, the Company's total parcel volume in Poland reached 199.1 million, an increase of 68.9 million, or 53%, versus the six months ended 30 June 2020. Total APM parcel volumes in Poland reached 164.8 million in the six months ended 30 June 2021, an increase of 62.2 million, or 61%, versus the prior year period.

In the second quarter of 2021, the Company's total parcel volume in Poland reached 102.5 million, an increase of 21.3 million, or 26%, versus the prior year period. Total APM parcel volumes in Poland reached 84.9 million in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 19.7 million, or 30%, versus the second quarter of 2020.

Both the first half and second quarter of 2021 increases were driven by the acceleration of e-commerce penetration in Poland as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the increase in APM network size and density, InPost's unique consumer experience, as well as the increasing popularity of APMs as the preferred delivery method for consumers.

For the six months ended 30 June 2021, to-door parcel volumes in Poland amounted to 34.3 million, an increase of 6.7 million, or 24%, versus the six months ended 30 June 2020. In the second quarter of 2021, to-door parcel volumes in Poland amounted to 17.6 million, an increase of 1.6 million, or 10%, versus the second quarter of 2020.

Revenue and other operating income of PLN 1,628.4 million in the six months ended 30 June 2021 increased by PLN 562.2 million, or 53%, versus the six months ended 30 June 2020, driven by strong

InPost S.A Société anonyme Registered address: 70, route d'Esch, L-1470 Luxembourg

growth in both the APM and to-door segments. APM revenue of PLN 1,216.1 million increased by PLN 466.5 million, or 62%, versus the prior year period. The year-on-year increase in APM revenue was driven by the 61% increase in APM parcel volumes, as well as a moderately higher average price per parcel. The increase in average price per parcel was driven by the absence of the Company's joint investment in the Allegro Smart promotional activity in the prior year period.

For the six months ended 30 June 2021, to-door revenue of PLN 360.0 million increased by PN 67.7 million, or 23%, versus the prior year period. The increase in to-door revenue was driven by 34% to-door parcel volume growth, partially offset by a moderate decline in average price per parcel.

In the second quarter of 2021, revenue and other operating income of PLN 846.3 million in Poland increased by PLN 190.1 million, or 29%, versus the second quarter of 2020, driven by strong growth in the APM segment and, to a lesser extent, growth in the to-door segment. APM revenue of PLN 627.7 million increased by PLN 157.0 million, or 33%, versus the prior year period. The year-on-year increase in APM revenue was driven by the 30% increase in APM parcel volumes, as well as a moderately higher average price per parcel.

To-door revenue of PLN 185.6 million increased by PLN 17.2 million, or 10%, versus the prior year period. The year-on-year increase in to-door revenue in Poland was driven by 10% to-door parcel volume growth.

International

As of 30 June 2021, the Company had a network of 2,225 APMs outside of Poland. The number of APMs outside of Poland increased by 986 or 80%, versus the six months ended 30 June 2020. All new APMs outside of Poland were installed in the UK, where the number of APMs increased by 110% versus the prior year period.

For the six months ended 30 June 2021, the Company's international parcel volumes reached 2.9 million, an increase of 2.2 million, or 314%, versus the six months ended 30 June 2020. In the second quarter of 2021, international parcel volumes reached 1.5 million, an increase of 1.0 million, or 200%, versus the second quarter of 2021. All parcels were delivered to APMs. Both the first half and second quarter of 2021 increases in parcel volume in the UK was primarily driven by the ongoing expansion of the Company's merchant base, the introduction of new services such as "instant returns", as well as the significant increase in APM network coverage.

Revenue and other operating income of PLN 22.3 million in the six months ended 30 June 2021 increased by PLN 16.6 million, or 291% versus the six months ended 30 June 2020. In the second quarter of 2021, Revenue and other operating income of PLN 11.2 million, increased by PLN 7.5 million, or 203% versus the second quarter of 2020.

Poland

For the six months ended 30 June 2021, Gross Profit in Poland amounted to PLN 937.6 million, an increase of PLN 394.4 million, or 73% versus the six months ended 30 June 2020. Gross margin increased to 57.6% for the six months ended 30 June 2021, an increase of 670 basis points versus the prior year period.

The year-on-year increase in Gross Profit for the six months ended 30 June 2021 was driven by strong Gross profit growth in both the APM and To-Door segments. APM Gross Profit of PLN 781.0 million increased by PLN 351.4 million, or 82% versus the prior year. This resulted in APM Gross Margin of 64.2%, for the six months ended 30 June 2021, or 690 basis points higher versus the prior year period. This improvement was primarily driven by strong volume growth, economies of scale benefits and lower costs per parcel and, to a lesser degree, by moderately higher average price per parcel.

As at 30 June 2021, the average APM utilization rate in Poland decreased to 77% across the 12 months, compared to an average of 85% as at 30 June 2020, which benefited from the unprecedented increase in demand for deliveries to APMs related to initial period of COVID-19 restrictions in Poland. In addition, the average APM utilization rate in Poland was impacted by the acceleration in locker capacity over the last 12 months.

Over the medium term, the Company continues to expect the average APM utilisation rate to increase in Poland, as its APM network matures, driving improved per parcel economics and supporting its gross margin development.

For the six months ended 30 June 2021, to-door gross profit of PLN 121.1 million increased by PLN 29.5 million, or 32% versus the six months ended 30 June 2020. This resulted in to-door gross margin of 33.6%, or 230 basis points higher versus the prior year period. The improvement was driven by volume growth, and increased courier efficiency, partially offset by moderately lower average price per parcel.

In the second quarter of 2021, Gross Profit in Poland of PLN 497.8 million increased by PLN 154.5 million, or 45% versus the second quarter of 2020. Gross margin increased to 58.8% in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 650 basis points versus the prior year period.

The year-on-year increase in Gross Profit in the second quarter of 2021 was primarily driven by strong Gross profit growth in the APM segment, and to a lesser degree, from the growth in the to-door segment. APM Gross Profit of PLN 409.0 million increased by PLN 135.5 million, or 50% versus the second quarter of 2020. This resulted in APM Gross Margin of 65.2% for the second quarter of 2021, or 710 basis points higher versus the prior year period. This improvement was primarily driven by strong volume growth, economies of scale benefits and lower costs per parcel and, to a lesser degree, by moderately higher average price per parcel.

To-door Gross profit of PLN 64.6 million in the second quarter of 2021 increased by PLN 10.2 million, or 19% versus the prior year period. This resulted in to-door Gross margin of 34.8%, or 250 basis points higher than the second quarter of 2020. The improvement was driven by volume growth and increased courier efficiency, resulting in lower costs per parcel.

International

For the six months ended 30 June 2021, Gross profit for the international segment was a loss of PLN 8.0 million, compared to a loss of PLN 3.6 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020. The higher loss was driven by higher initial logistics costs per parcel as a result of a new contract with the Group's courier partner as well as promotional initiatives related to the launch of instant returns, which more than offset higher revenues.

Gross profit for the international segment was a loss of PLN 6.4 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to a loss of PLN 1.7 million in the second quarter of 2020. The higher loss was driven by higher initial logistics costs per parcel as a result of a new contract with the Group's courier partner, which more than offset higher revenues.

Over the medium term, and as parcel volumes increase, the Company continues to expect its logistics costs per parcel for the International segment to decline, and its gross profit per parcel to increase.

Poland

For the six months ended 30 June 2021, Adjusted EBITDA in Poland reached PLN 742.1 million, an increase of PLN 323.3 million, or 77%, versus the six months ended 2020. This resulted in an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 45.6%, an increase of 630 basis points versus the prior year period.

In the second quarter of 2021, Adjusted EBITDA in Poland reached PLN 392.0 million, an increase of PLN 118.4 million, or 43% versus the second quarter of 2020. This resulted in an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 46.3%, an increase of 460 basis points versus the second quarter of 2020.

Both the first half and second quarter of 2021 increases in Adjusted EBITDA were driven by an increase in the proportion of APM segment revenue, which have lower logistics costs per parcel compared to todoor segment, as well as overall productivity gains driven by the Company's enhanced scale. This was partially offset by higher year general costs, particularly in the second quarter of 2021, to support the increase in revenues, as well as higher employee incentive, IT and public company costs.

International

For the six months ended 30 June 2021, Adjusted EBITDA for the international segment was a loss of PLN 47.5 million, a decrease of PLN 30.1 million versus the six months ended 30 June 2020. This was primarily due to higher logistics costs per parcel as a result of a new contract with the Group's courier partner, as well as significantly higher general costs as the Company continued to invest in headcount and marketing initiatives to support its longer term growth.

This resulted in a Free Cash Flow conversion ratio of 58%, versus 52% in the prior year.

About InPost S.A.

InPost (Euronext Amsterdam: INPST) is the leading out-of-home e-commerce enablement platform in Europe. Founded in 1999 by Rafal Brzoska in Poland, InPost provides delivery services through our network of more than 15,500 Automated Parcel Machines ("APMs"), including over 2,000 in the UK, as well as to-door courier and fulfilment services to e-commerce merchants. Strategically positioned in the fast-growing ecommerce market, InPost's strategy is further enhanced by our investments in technology, as well as the benefits of the "flywheel" effect that provide consumers, merchants and our planet a best-in-class, lower cost, more convenient and sustainable form of last mile delivery. Through our delivery services, InPost is creating a greener solution for e-commerce, as APM deliveries reduce CQ emissions by up to two-thirds compared to to-door deliveries in urban areas, and by up to 90% in rural areas, as well as significantly reducing traffic and noise pollution.

In the twelve months to 30 June 2021, InPost handled 381 million parcel deliveries through its networks in Poland, France, the U.K, Italy, Benelux and Iberia, generating PLN 3,111 million of revenue and other operating income and PLN 1,298 million of adjusted EBITDA.

In July 2021, InPost successfully completed acquisition of Mondial Relay to create Europe's leading out-ofhome automated solution for e-commerce.
