Message from the Chairman and CEO

Pedro Soares dos Santos

'The economic environment in which we operate in 2025 remains clouded by geopolitical risks and socio-economic dynamics. Consumers are cautious due to heightened uncertainty, and it is difficult to anticipate their future behaviour.

In this refrained context, all our Companies worked with discipline to manage the pressure on margins resulting from low basket inflation coupled with the increase in personnel costs associated with the rise in minimum wages.

Although market trends remained unclear in Q1, Group results were solid against a demanding comparative in 2024. This performance validates our value propositions and the strategy of strengthening the business models adopted in prior years.

Monitoring closely the evolution of consumer demand and the behaviour of our competitors, we remain focused on growing sustainably, defending our customer bases, executing our ambitious expansion plan, and addressing the environmental and social challenges we face in a particularly volatile context.'

I - CONSOLIDATED MANAGEMENT REPORT

1. Performance Overview & Key Drivers

In a demanding and volatile environment, we started 2025 with a clear priority – ensure price competitiveness to earn the preference of consumers who choose our stores and trust our value propositions, and, therefore, continue to strengthen our market positions.

Overall, the rise in the minimum wage increased household disposable income in the countries where we operate. Nonetheless, official food retail statistics reveal that consumers remain cautious and highly sensitive to prices. At the same time, food inflation remains low, albeit not negative.

We retained the price competitiveness that is our hallmark and maintained tight control over all profitability drivers. Sales grew 3.8% (+1.9% at constant exchange rates), despite the negative calendar impact. The prior year, a leap year, benefited from an extra day of sales and included Easter trading, which in 2025 fell in the second quarter. EBITDA increased 3.8% (+1.2% at constant exchange rates) with the respective margin in line with the prior year, at 6.3%.

Net income was 127 million euros, 31.4% above Q1 24, the quarter in which the initial endowment of the Jerónimo Martins Foundation (40 million euros) was booked. Excluding this figure and other non-recurring profits and losses, net income was 6.1% lower than in the same period in 2024.

In March, we opened the first four Biedronka stores in Slovakia and a Distribution Centre to support the growth of our network in the country. The local management team will now focus on evaluating the consumers' reactions to our value proposition.

At the end of Q1, the Group's balance sheet registered a net cash position (excluding IFRS16) of 332 million euros.

The General Shareholders' Meeting, held on 24 April, approved the Board of Directors' proposal to distribute a dividend of 0.59 euros per share (gross amount), totalling 370.8 million euros, which will be paid on 15 May. The shareholders also approved allocating 40 million euros from the 2024 results to the Jerónimo Martins Foundation. According to our Statutory Auditor, and in agreement with IAS 1, this amount should affect the income statement on Q2 25.

2. Performance Analysis by Banner

POLAND

In Poland, food inflation has increased since the second half of 2024 and was 6.1% in Q1 25.

Despite the contribution to households' disposable income of the 9.2% rise of the minimum wage implemented in January, consumers remained cautious in their food spending and highly sensitive to prices, while competitive pressures remained intense.

Hebe LFL

In the year it celebrates its 30th anniversary, Biedronka maintained a strong commercial dynamic. As a result, sales grew by 3.4% to 5.9 billion euros (+0.3% in local currency). LFL at -3.5%, was pushed into negative

territory by the significant calendar effect and the demanding comparison base of Q1 24, a period when Biedronka delivered extraordinary volume growth.

The Company strengthened its cost discipline and benefited in the first quarter from a favourable margin mix compared to Q1 24, offsetting the impact of negative LFL and wage increases on the EBITDA margin. Thus, EBITDA reached 461 million euros, 3.9% above the previous year (+0.7% in local currency) with the respective margin at 7.7%, in line with Q1 24.

Biedronka opened 56 stores during the period (50 net stores) and carried out 27 renovations.

Despite facing stronger competition, Hebe, grew its sales by 8.5% (in local currency), with LFL at 1.9%. Sales reached 145 million euros, 11.9% above Q1 24.

The strategy of reinforcing price investments produced internal deflation and impacted the banner's margin. EBITDA was 3 million euros, 57.4% below the previous year (-58.7% in local currency). The EBITDA margin was 2% (5.4% in Q1 24).

Hebe opened four stores in Poland and one in the Czech Republic, ending the period with a total of 380 stores in Poland, four in the Czech Republic, and two in Slovakia.

PORTUGAL

In Portugal, food inflation was 1.5% in Q1 25, and the consumer environment remained highly promotion-driven.

Pingo Doce maintained its intense promotional activity and grew sales by 2.8% to 1.2 billion euros despite the negative calendar impact, with LFL at 1.1% (excluding fuel). The contribution of the stores operating under the All About Food

During this period, Pingo Doce opened one store and remodelled 13 locations.

concept was decisive for this performance.

LFL Recheio

Recheio responded to persistent headwinds in the HoReCa channel by investing to protect its sales performance. Despite these efforts and also impacted by calendar effects, sales decreased by 0.4% to 302 million euros, with an LFL of -0.5%.

The Distribution Portugal EBITDA was 78 million euros, 0.7% lower than in the same quarter in the previous year. The respective margin reached 5.2% (5.3% in Q1 24), pressured by increased labour costs following a 6.1% rise in the country's minimum wage.

COLOMBIA

In Colombia, food inflation was 4.6% in Q1 25, and the consumption environment remained very challenging.

Through frequent promotions, Ara sustained its commitment to a strategy that offers significant savings opportunities to Colombian families.

Sales grew by 13% in local currency, with LFL at 3%, and reached 775 million euros, 9.1% above Q1 24.

The banner added nine new stores to its network, totaling 1,447 locations at the end of March. At the beginning of this year, Ara also opened a new distribution center to reinforce its logistics infrastructure and support its expansion plan, including the integration of c. 70 locations previously operated by Colsubsidio.

EBITDA was 27 million euros, 50.1% above Q1 24 (+55.5% in local

currency), with the respective margin at 3.5% (2.5% in Q1 24). The margin expansion benefited from the work carried out in 2024 to protect the gross margin and control costs.

1. Activity

Jerónimo Martins, SGPS, S.A. (JMH), is the parent Company of Jerónimo Martins (Group) and has its head office in Lisbon.

The Group operates mainly in the areas of Food Distribution in Portugal, Poland, Colombia and, since March 2025, in Slovakia, and of Agrifood Production in Portugal. In 2023 it began activity in other geographies, namely in the Agrifood sector (aquaculture) in Morocco, and in Specialized Retail from Poland to Czechia and Slovakia.

Head Office: Rua Actor António Silva, n.º 7, 1649-033 Lisboa, Portugal.

Share Capital: 629,293,220 euros.

Registered at the Commercial Registry Office and Tax Number: 500 100 144.

JMH has been listed on the Euronext Lisbon since 1989.

The Board of Directors approved these Consolidated Financial Statements on 6 May 2025.

2. Accounting policies

2.1. Basis for preparation

All amounts are shown in million euros (€ million) unless otherwise stated. Due to rounding's, the arithmetic result of the numbers shown in the plots may not exactly match the totals.

JMH condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the interim financial reporting standard (IAS 34), and all other International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and with the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) as adopted by the European Union (EU).

The JMH consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the same standards and accounting policies adopted by the Group in the preparation of the annual financial statements, except for the adoption of new standards, amendments and interpretations, effective as of 1 January 2025, and essentially including an explanation of the events and relevant changes for the understanding of variations in the financial position and Group performance since the last annual report. Thus, the accounting policies as well as some of the notes from the 2024 annual report are omitted because no changes occurred, or they are not materially relevant for the understanding of the interim financial statements.

As mentioned in the Consolidated Financial Statements chapter of the 2024 Annual Report, note 28 - Financial risks, the Group, as a result of its normal activity, is exposed to several risks which are monitored and mitigated throughout the year. During the first three months of 2025, there was no material changes in addition to the notes detailed below, that could significantly change the assessment of the risks that the Group is exposed to.

Change in accounting policies and basis for preparation:

2.1.1. New standards, amendments and interpretations adopted by the Group

In November 2024, the EU issued the following Regulation, which was adopted by the Group with effect from 1 January 2025:

EU Regulation IASB Standard or IFRIC Interpretation
endorsed by EU
Standard /
interpretation
issued in
Mandatory for
financial years
beginning on or after
Regulation no. 2862/2024 IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of
Exchangeability (amendments)
August 2023 1 January 2025

The Group adopted the above amendments, with no significant impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

2.1.2. New standards, amendments and interpretations endorsed by EU but not effective for the financial year beginning 1 January 2025 and not early adopted

During the first three months of 2025, the EU did not issue any Regulation regarding the endorsement of new standards, amendments or interpretations.

2.1.3. New standards, amendments and interpretations issued by IASB and IFRIC, but not yet endorsed by EU

During the first three months of 2025 IASB/IFRIC did not issued any standards, amendments or interpretations.

2.1.4. Change of accounting policies

Except as disclosed above, the Group has not changed its accounting policies during the first three months of 2025, nor were identified errors regarding previous years, which compel the restatement of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

2.2. Transactions in foreign currencies

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency (euro) at the exchange rate prevailing on the transaction date.

At the balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on that date, and exchange differences arising from this conversion are recognised in the income statement. When qualifying as cash flow hedges or hedges on investments in foreign subsidiaries or when classified as other financial investments, which are equity instruments, the exchange differences are deferred in equity.

The main exchange rates applied on the balance sheet date are those listed below:

Euro foreign exchange reference rates
(x foreign exchange units per 1 euro)
Polish Złoty
(PLN)
Colombian Peso
(COP)
Rate at 31 March 2025 4.1840 4,534.2600
Average rate for the period 4.2000 4,411.1300
Rate at 31 March 2024 4.3123 4,181.4300
Average rate for the period 4.3310 4,256.6600

In addition to these currencies, the Group carries out transactions based on other currencies and holds subsidiaries with other functional currencies, which, however, have no materiality.

3. Segments reporting

Segment information is presented in accordance with internal reporting to Management. Based on this report, the Management evaluates the performance of each segment and allocates the available resources.

Management monitors the performance of the business based on a geographical and business perspective. Since the business units in the distribution area in Portugal share a set of competences, the Group analyses, on a quarterly basis, its segments in an aggregate performance perspective. In addition, the Group also separates the business units Poland Retail, Poland Health and Beauty, and Colombia Retail. Apart from these there are also other businesses which due to their low materiality, are not reported separately.

The identified operating segments were:

  • Portugal Distribution: comprises the business unit of JMR (Pingo Doce supermarkets) and the business unit Recheio (Wholesale operation of cash & carry and foodservice);
  • Poland Retail: the business unit which operates under the Biedronka banner in this country;
  • Poland Health and Beauty: includes the Hebe banner business unit in Poland, as well as the operations of its subsidiaries in Czechia and Slovakia;
  • Colombia Retail: the business unit which operates under the Ara banner;
  • Others, eliminations and adjustments: include i. business units with reduced materiality (Coffee Shops Chocolate Store, Agribusiness in Portugal and the Biedronka banner business in Slovakia); ii. the Holding Companies; and iii. Group's consolidation adjustments.

In 2025 the Corporate Income Tax rate (CIT) applied to companies operating in Portugal is 20% (2024: 21%). For companies with a positive tax result, there is a surcharge of 1.5% regarding municipal tax, and an additional state tax that varies between 3%, 5% and 9%, for taxable profits higher than €1.5 million, €7.5 million and €35 million, respectively.

In Poland, for 2025 and 2024, the income tax rate applied to taxable income is 19%.

In Colombia, the income tax rate is 35% in 2025 and 2024.

Jerónimo Martins and the subsidiaries that are part of its full consolidation perimeter, are covered by the European Union regulation, known as Pillar 2, in which Sociedade Francisco Manuel dos Santos Holding N.V. (SFMS) is the ultimate parent entity of the taxed Group.

This regulation aims to determine any additional tax that may be due with respect to each of the jurisdictions where the Group operates, which presents an effective tax rate lower than 15%, assessed in accordance with the legislation adopted by each of the geographies.

Jerónimo Martins expects that no additional tax will be due in the jurisdictions in which It operates with reference to the period of 2025 due to the application of the transitional safe harbours provisions based on financial and tax information of the Country-by-Country Report ("Transitional CbCR Safe Harbours") for the fiscal years 2023 and 2024.

The increase in tangible assets correspond mainly to the Group's investments in new stores and distribution centres and remodelling of the existing ones.

Net value of intangible assets at 31 March 2025 include Goodwill in the amount of €646 million.

Due to currency translation adjustment of the assets in the Group's businesses reported in foreign currency, the net amount of tangible and intangible assets and right-of-use assets increased €143 million. This change includes an increase of €7 million related to Goodwill from businesses in Poland.

13. Borrowings

The Group has negotiated commercial paper programs in the total amount of €310 million. The utilizations under these programs are remunerated at the Euribor rate for the respective issue period plus variable spreads and can also be issued on auctions. During the period some issuances were carried out, for short periods of time, to meet cash requirements whose use as of 31 March 2025 was of €165 million. A new overdraft agreement has been negotiated, increasing the limit of these short-term financing lines to a total of €206.5 million.

In Poland, Jeronimo Martins Polska S.A. has made scheduled repayments of a medium and long-term financing in the amount of 24,8 million złoty, approximately €6 million.

Jeronimo Martins Colombia SAS issued, still in 2024, a new loan with the International Finance Corporation (IFC), part of the World Bank, in the amount of 120 million dollars, having disbursed the last available tranche in February, in the amount of 21 million dollars, equivalent to 87 billion Colombian pesos. This loan, ESG Linked, has a maturity of seven years and is intended to support the company's expansion with the construction of two distribution centers with a 'Green' rating through EDGE-Advanced certification. Two new loans were negotiated, through international banks, equivalent to €100 million, which are expected to be used in the second quarter of the year.

18. Contingencies

Contingent liabilities

During the first quarter of 2025, the following changes occurred to the contingencies mentioned in the 2024 Annual Report:

Other tax and legal proceedings:

  • a) The Portuguese Tax Authorities (PTA) have informed Recheio SGPS that it should restate the dividends received, amounting to €82 million, from its subsidiary in the Madeira Free Zone in the years 2000 to 2003, considering them as interest for tax purposes. According to the PTA the said income should be subject to Corporate Income Tax (CIT) as opposed to dividends received that are exempt. The PTA have issued additional assessments, amounting to €21 million, of which €20 million is still in dispute. In spite that both judicial claims were ruled in favour of the PTA, the Management maintains its convictions and claimed against them judicially. In one of the cases the Central Administrative Court has ruled in favour of Recheio SGPS, although the PTA has claimed against that decision. The Supreme Administrative Court decided in favour of the PTA, thus Recheio has already filed a nullity appeal as well as an appeal to the Constitutional Court;
  • c) The PTA carried out some corrections to the CIT from Companies included in the perimeter of the Tax Group headed by Recheio SGPS. With these corrections the total assessments concerning 2007 to 2014 amounted to €17 million, of which an amount of €16 million is still in dispute. The Lisbon Tax Court has already ruled in favour of Recheio SGPS regarding the 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2013 and 2014 assessments. Up to this date, the PTA has appealed of all those decisions. In 2024 the Central Administrative Court ruled in favor of Recheio, regarding the year 2010 and the Supreme Administrative Court in favor of the PTA, regarding 2013, therefore, regarding the latter, Recheio has already filed an appeal which was decided in favour of the PTA;
  • e) The PTA assessed, for the period from 2016 to 2019, JMR SGPS and JMH (as the head of the Tax Group in which Recheio SGPS is included), the amounts of €122 million and €30 million, respectively, related to the taxation in CIT of ¼ of the results generated in internal operations of the Tax Group, in each of these years. As explained in the 2018 Annual Report (and previous years), this assessment results from the application of the transitional rule included in the Portuguese State Budget of 2016 (and then in the next three budgets). The Management, supported by its lawyers and tax advisers, believes that the company is right. As such, appeals have already been filed to oppose the said assessments. Regarding JMH's 2017 case, the Lisbon Tax Court decided in favour of the PTA, thus JMH has already appealed.
