CEO letter

Dear all,

I am very pleased with the Group's overall performance in the beginning of 2025. All our businesses grew and increased market shares in very competitive sectors and under a quite volatile environment. This outcome reflects the robustness and leading positions of our companies. It is also a testament to the exceptional talent of our teams, who strive every day to do more and better for our clients, while creating economic value and contributing to environmental preservation and social progress, always with the highest ethical standards.

MC's food segment revenues increased by 7%, supported by a remarkable 5% like-for-like sales growth, particularly given the adverse calendar effect (as 2024 was a leap year and this year Easter only occurred in April). Continente's market leadership was clearly reinforced and we remain optimistic for the months ahead. MC's health, wellness and beauty division also recorded strong growth in the quarter, mostly driven by the consolidation of Druni and also by organic growth. In the aftermath of the Druni deal in July 2024, the integration of teams has been completed, and synergies are gradually being realized. The outlook remains positive, as MC holds a leading position in the Iberian market, which benefits from strong structural growth.

Worten posted significant year-on-year sales gains of 4%, supported by improved performance across different segments — namely electronics and appliances, as well as new product categories. I am quite pleased that Worten further strengthened its market share, consolidating its leading position in the sector in Portugal. Services also played a key role, with iServices continuing its geographic expansion, in Portugal and abroad.

We celebrated the first anniversary of Musti as part of the Sonae group. After a challenging start, Musti has been steadily regaining its growth trajectory, delivering month-on-month improvements in like-for-like sales with the team successfully steering the company to sustained market share gains since our investment. The integration of Pet City, acquired in November 2024, was completed this quarter, a first inorganic move aligned with Musti's role as a growth platform to capture opportunities in the expanding and highly attractive pet retail sector. In 1Q25, Musti delivered 12% sales growth, with comparable like-for-like sales (excluding the leap year) increasing by 2.4%.

Sierra benefited from the solid performance of its European shopping centres, which recorded resilient footfall, robust occupancy rates of c. 98% and growing tenants' sales (2% year-on-year LfL). In addition, the services business continued to expand its reach, paving the way to meet our strategic objectives. Overall, the strong operational performance, combined with the value of our real estate asset portfolio, contributed to growth in both net result and NAV.

In a context of mounting competitive pressure, NOS achieved sales growth of 4.5%, further consolidating its market share. In a challenging environment, NOS's performance has been remarkable. The quarter was marked by the strategic acquisition of Claranet, positioning the company to serve B2B clients in a much more comprehensive ICT offering. Looking ahead, I am confident that NOS is well prepared to compete successfully and to continue delivering reliable and relevant telecommunications solutions to both B2C and B2B segments.

Innovation plays a pivotal role in realizing our long-term goals. This quarter, we hosted significant moments dedicated to advancing our innovation agenda. We brought together colleagues from across the group to explore how innovation and artificial intelligence can reshape our operations. The strength of our innovation ecosystem was recently recognized by StartUpBlink, which ranked Sonae among the world's top 100 most dynamic companies in the global start-up ecosystem.

To sustain our positive results, we must remain future-driven, fostering an organization where people are eager to learn, experiment, and act with an entrepreneurial spirit — always striving for more and better, working collaboratively, moving with speed, and doing what's right. We have been intentional in building a culture and putting in place the mechanisms that encourage these behaviors and support our ambition. I am proud of who we are, because it is precisely this identity that sets Sonae apart. I firmly believe that our ambitious growth path can be achieved by staying true to our values.

I would like to leave a final word to express my gratitude for our teams' exemplary response to the blackout that affected the Iberian Peninsula three weeks ago. Faced with a completely unexpected event, we demonstrated remarkable team spirit and were able to keep our operations running in a challenging context, fulfilling our role of standing by the families we serve every day.

Together, we continue to create a better tomorrow for all!

Cláudia Azevedo CEO

Overview

Key Financial Indicators

  • Consolidated turnover increased 23% yoy to €2.6bn in 1Q25, driven by strong organic growth across our core businesses and the integration of newly acquired companies, including Musti and Druni. Organic growth was mostly fuelled by MC, which delivered robust volume gains and further expanded its market leadership, and by Worten, boosted by a resilient online performance. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, consolidated turnover posted a solid 6% yoy increase.
  • Underlying EBITDA rose 38% yoy to €218m, propelled by the positive contribution from the recently acquired companies together with a solid improvement in MC's operating profitability. The positive performance of our fully consolidated businesses, combined with €34m in equity method results, drove consolidated EBITDA up by 39% yoy to €250m. This translated into a margin of 9.8%, representing an expansion of 1.2pp yoy.
  • Net result (group share) rose to €43m, up 77% yoy, reflecting improved operational performance across our portfolio companies which offset the impact of higher D&A and financial costs associated with portfolio expansion.
  • Operational cash flow reached €147m in the twelve months ending March 2025 (LTM Mar-25), up from €113m in LTM Mar-24. This increase was primarily driven by stronger operational performance across our businesses, which more than offset higher capex mainly linked to the ongoing expansion of our retail businesses' footprint. Free cash flow before dividends paid stood at -€207m, reflecting the strong M&A activity over the past twelve months.
  • Consolidated net debt totalled €1.9bn at the end of March, primarily reflecting the strategic acquisitions completed over the past twelve months, most notably Druni and BCF. Sonae capital structure remains strong, underpinned by ample liquidity facilities and a well-balanced debt maturity profile.
  • Sonae's NAV, based on market references, totalled €4.6bn, up by 4.5% qoq, fuelled by the positive performance of the NOS stock price and improved valuations of MC and Sierra.

Portfolio

Retail

MC

75% stake, fully consolidated

In 1Q25, MC's grocery retail segment delivered a strong performance, driving market share gains and a reinforcement of its leadership position. Like-for-like (LfL) sales posted a robust increase of 5.0%, despite negative calendar effects related with the leap year in 2024 and the timing of Easter. This growth was driven by volume increases across all store formats, highlighting MC's differentiated value proposition amid a context of normalized inflation and intense market competition. During the quarter, 2 new Continente Bom Dia proximity stores were opened, and MC continued to advance its ambitious refurbishment strategy, with circa 20 refurbishments underway—particularly targeting larger store formats.

In the Health, Wellness and Beauty segment, both Druni group (including both Druni and Arenal banners) and Wells delivered an exceptional sales performance, achieving double-digit growth despite a highly competitive operating environment, with the online channel making a notably strong contribution. In Portugal, Wells sustained consistent LfL improvement, while in Spain, Druni group posted a solid increase in revenue driven by a resilient LfL and a continued expansion of its store footprint over the last months, leading to an increase in market share.

On a consolidated basis, MC's turnover rose 22.5% yoy to €2.0bn in 1Q25, or 8% yoy when considering the proforma contribution of Druni, which has been consolidated since 3Q24. Profitability also improved, with uEBITDA reaching €187m, and uEBITDA margin expanding 0.9pp yoy to 9.5%. The margin increase was primarily driven by the consolidation of Druni, accelerated topline growth and ongoing operational efficiencies, which more than offset pressures from inflation, rising staff costs and higher energy prices.

Free cash flow in 1Q25 (-€118m) reflected the seasonal impacts of the retailing activity over working capital, namely the later timing of Easter in 2025. Financial leverage remained at comfortable levels at the end of March, with total net debt to EBITDA of 2.9x, or 2.7x on a proforma basis, incorporating Druni's full-year EBITDA contribution.

Worten

100% stake, fully consolidated

Worten posted a solid topline evolution in 1Q, outperforming the electronics market in Portugal and gaining market share both offline and online. Despite a challenging environment with intensified promotional activity and an unfavourable calendar effect, turnover increased by 4.2% yoy to €323m, supported by a robust LfL of 4.1%, underscoring the uniqueness of Worten omnichannel model.

Worten posted healthy turnover performances across all segments: (i) core categories (electronics and home appliances) recorded resilient volumes increases, (ii) new product categories grew at double digit and (iii) services, one of Worten strategic growth avenues, saw iServices maintain its positive momentum.

The online channel recorded significant growth in the quarter (+18.7% yoy), leveraging on Worten marketplace, and representing already 18.6% of total turnover in 1Q25.

In 1Q25, uEBITDA reached €12m, with a margin of 3.8% (4.7% in 1Q24), reflecting pressure from a higher cost base to support strategic growth initiatives (mainly impacting logistics and staff), alongside broader inflationary pressures on rents.

Regarding footprint expansion, a highlight to iServices that continued to successfully expand its presence both domestically and internationally. In 1Q25, Worten opened 10 new iServices stores, mostly abroad, ending the quarter with 64 stores in Portugal, 21 in Belgium, 11 in France and 7 in the Canary Islands.

Musti

1

c.81% stake, fully consolidated

Musti reported its 1Q25 results to the market on May 21st before market opening, showcasing resilience and continued momentum despite a challenging consumer environment.

The company strengthened its position as the leading omnichannel player across the Nordic markets, while recording growth in both its customer base and average spend per customer. During the period, the company also successfully progressed with the integration of Pet City, following its acquisition in November, further solidifying its growth platform in the Baltics.

Musti achieved sales of €120m in 1Q25 (January 1st – March 31st, 20251 ),

representing a 11.8% increase over the same period last year, driven by the consolidation of Pet City and a positive performance across its Nordic operations. Even on an organic growth basis, excluding the impact of Pet City, sales would still have grown by a robust 3.8% yoy. LfL sales growth reached 1.2%, or 2.4% in comparable terms (excluding the leap year effect).

Musti's online channel continued to gain traction, with sales increasing by 6.6% yoy, while accounting for 24.0% of total sales (25.1% in 1Q24). This reflects the company's ongoing investment in digital capabilities and omnichannel integration.

Amid a demanding operating setting, underlying EBITDA reached €13m with a margin of 10.6% (€15m and 14.0% in the same period last year), impacted by the pressure in gross margin, due to targeted investments in price and campaign activities, and inflation.

Further details can be found in the company's website available here.

Real Estate

Sierra

100% stake, fully consolidated

Sierra delivered a strong start to 2025, posting solid financial results underpinned by resilient growth in its European shopping centre portfolio, continued execution of its strategy in third-party services, and meaningful progress across its development pipeline, including successful projects commercialization.

During 1Q25, Sierra's European shopping centre portfolio maintained a robust momentum, highlighting once again its resilience and quality, with tenant sales continuing its growth trajectory, strong occupancy at 98.2% and solid collection rates. As a result, rental growth continued to catch-up with historical sales trends, while the occupancy cost ratio stayed healthy and below pre-pandemic levels.

In the services segment, Sierra continued to implement its diversification strategy, and experienced notable growth.

Developments activity remained robust, with steady progress across all five construction projects and successful execution of their commercialization strategies, including the full sale of residential units at Republica 5 project. Sierra is also advancing with three additional projects in licensing phase, including its first build-tosell in Spain and first build-to-rent in Portugal, continue expanding in the living sector.

In 1Q25, Sierra's net result rose to €29m (+€15m yoy), fuelled by the positive

operational performance in both the shopping centre portfolio and services. NAV reached €1.1bn at the end of March, up by €73m yoy and €39m qoq.

Musti's financial year is calendar year, following the changes occurred in the previous quarter to ensure alignment with Sonae's financial year. 1Q24 refers to the period January 1st – March 31st, 2024. In Sonae's accounts, Musti was only consolidated from March 2024 onwards.

Telco & Technology

Sonae's investments in the Telco & Technology areas are concentrated in Sonaecom which published its 1Q25 results on May 14th. Further details on these areas' performance can be found at Sonaecom's announcement available here.

NOS

37.4% stake, equity consolidated2

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

Consolidated revenue grew by 4.5% to €421m in 1Q25, driven by the strength of the Telco operations and the positive performance of the Cinema exhibition & Audiovisual business. Consolidated EBITDA increased by 4.3% to €192m, with a slight EBITDA margin compression of 0.1pp to 45.6%, due to the increase in low-margin resale revenue. Excluding resale-related revenues and costs, EBITDA margin expanded by 0.1pp to 46.3%. Further details are available on the company's website here.

On Sonae's consolidated accounts, NOS equity method results reached €19.8m in 1Q25, vs. €23.8m in 1Q24, highly influenced by extraordinary effects recorded last year relating to activity fees from Anacom following a favourable court ruling.

Already in April, NOS held its AGM and the Board of Directors approved a proposal to distribute an ordinary dividend of €0.35 per share (in line with last year), and an extraordinary dividend of €0.05 per share, relating to 2024 results. The dividend was paid on April 24th and resulted in a €77m cash-in for Sonaecom.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ended 31 March 2025

(Translation of consolidated financial statements originally issued in Portuguese. In case of discrepancy the Portuguese version prevails)

(Amounts stated in thousands of euros)

1. Introductory note

1.1 Group's presentation

SONAE, SGPS, S.A. ("Sonae") has its head-office at Lugar do Espido, Via Norte, Apartado 1011, 4470-909 Maia, Portugal, and is the parent company of a group of companies.

Shares representing the share capital of Sonae, SGPS, S.A. are listed on the Euronext Lisbon stock exchange. At 31 March 2025, Sonae, SGPS, S.A. is directly and majority owned by Pareuro BV and Efanor Investimentos SGPS, S.E., the latter being the ultimate controlling company.

All amounts stated in these notes are stated in thousands of euros, rounded to the nearest unit, unless otherwise stated.

Sonae has in its portfolio 6 operating segments:

  • MC is the undisputed leader in the Portuguese food retail market and also operates in complementary businesses to retail activities, as well as in the health, beauty and wellness retail sector in Portugal and Spain;
  • Worten is a leading omnichannel retailer of products and services, with a focus on household appliances and consumer electronics;
  • Musti is the leader in the retail of products and provision of services for pets in the Nordic countries;
  • Sierra is the fully integrated operator in the real estate sector;
  • Bright Pixel is an active and specialized investor with a focus on retail technology, digital infrastructure and cybersecurity; and

• NOS is the leading convergent operator in the Portuguese telecommunications market.

Sonae SGPS, S.A. operates in Portugal, but the Group's business areas also operate internationally.

These segments were identified considering the following criteria/conditions: the fact that they are Group units that carry out activities where revenues and expenses can be separately identified, for which separate financial information is developed, their operating results are regularly reviewed by the Group's management bodies, and decisions are made regarding, for example, resource allocation, the fact that they have similar products/services, and also considering the quantitative threshold (as provided in IFRS 8).

1.2 Restatement of consolidated financial statements

1.2.1 Allocation of the fair value of Musti assets and liabilities

Regarding the voluntary public offer for the acquisition of all outstanding shares of Musti Group Plc, which was completed in March 2024, as provided in IFRS 3 – Business Combinations, an assessment of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities was carried out with reference to 29 February 2024 and the amounts recognised in Sonae's consolidated financial statements were adjusted retrospectively.

The impact of the restatement of the consolidated financial position on 31 March 2024 was as follow:

1.3 Subsequent events

On 30 April, Sonae, SGPS, S.A. informed about the decisions made by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting, including the approval of the results as of 31 December 2024 and the approval of a dividend payment of 0.05921 euros per share.

1.4 Basis of preparation

Approval of financial statements

The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 20 May 2025.

Basis of presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), and interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC") or by the previous Standing Interpretations Committee ("SIC"), as adopted by the European Union as from the consolidated financial statements issuance date.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements are prepared quarterly, in accordance with IAS 34 – "Interim Financial Reporting". As such, they do not include all the information required for full annual consolidated financial statements and should therefore be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the previous year.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the books and accounting records of the company and subsidiaries, adjusted in the consolidation process, on a going concern basis and under the historical cost convention, except for some financial instruments and investments properties which are measured at fair value.

1.5 New accounting standards and their impact in these consolidated financial statements

Up to the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, the European Union endorsed the following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions some of which become mandatory during the year 2025:

Requirements to determine if a currency can be exchanged for another currency and, when
IAS 21 – The Effects of Changes
it is not possible to make the exchange for a long period, the options for calculating the spot
in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack
exchange rate to be used. Disclosure of the impacts of this situation on the entity's liquidity,
of Exchangeability
financial performance, and financial position, as well as the spot exchange rate used on the
reporting date.
01 Jan 2025

This standard was first applied by the Group in 2025, however, there are no impacts in the accompanying financial statements.

The following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions were not endorsed by the European Union to the date of approval of these financial statements:

Standards (new and amendments) that will become effective, on or after 1 January 2025, not yet endorsed by the EU Effective date (for
financial years beginning
on or after)
IFRS 7 and IFRS 9 – Amendments to the
Classification and Measurement of
Financial Instruments
Introduction of a new exception to the definition of derecognition date when the settlement
of financial liabilities is carried out through an electronic payment system. Additional
guidance to assess whether the contractual cash flows of a financial asset are solely
payments of principal and interest. Requirement for new disclosures for certain instruments
with contractual terms that may alter cash flows. New disclosures about fair value gains or
losses recognized in equity in relation to equity instruments designated at fair value through
other comprehensive income.
01 Jan 2026
IFRS 7 and IFRS 9 – Contracts Negotiated
with Reference to Electricity Generated
from Renewable Sources
Regarding the accounting for Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) for electricity generated
from renewable sources with respect to: i) clarifying the application of the 'own use'
requirements; ii) allowing hedge accounting if renewable energy contracts are designated
as hedging instruments; and iii) adding new disclosure requirements about the entity's
financial performance and cash flows.
01 Jan 2026
Annual Improvements – Volume 11 Some clarifications to Standards: IFRS 1, IFRS 7, IFRS 9, IFRS 10, and IAS 7. 01 Jan 2026
IFRS 18 – Presentation and Disclosure in
Financial Statements
Presentation and disclosure requirements in financial statements, focusing on the income
statement, through the specification of a model structure, with the categorization of
expenses and income into operating, investing, and financing activities, and the
introduction of relevant subtotals. Improvements in the disclosure of management
performance measures and additional guidance on the application of aggregation and
disaggregation principles.
01 Jan 2027
IFRS 19 – Subsidiaries without Public
Accountability: Disclosures
A standard that only deals with disclosures, with reduced disclosure requirements, which is
applied in conjunction with other IFRS accounting standards for recognition, measurement,
and presentation requirements. It can only be adopted by 'Eligible' subsidiaries that are not
subject to the obligation of public financial reporting and have a parent company that
prepares publicly available consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS.
01 Jan 2027

The Group did not proceed with the early implementation of any of these standards in the financial statements for the period ended on 31 March 2025 since their application is not mandatory, lying in the process of analysing expected effects of those standards.

2. Operational Activity

2.1 Presentation of consolidated management information

In the Management Report, and for the purposes of calculating financial indicators as EBIT, EBITDA and Underlying EBITDA the consolidated income statement is divided between Direct income components and Indirect Income components.

The Indirect Income includes Sierra's results, net of taxes, arising from: (i) valuation of investment properties of subsidiaries and the share of associates and joint ventures; (ii) gains (losses) recorded with the disposal of financial investments, joint ventures, or associates; (iii) impairment losses relating to non-current assets (including Goodwill); and (iv) gains (losses) resulting from obtaining/losing control and corresponding recycling of conversion reserves; and (v) provisions for assets at risk. Additionally, regarding Sonae's portfolio, it includes: (i) impairments on retail real estate assets, (ii) reductions in Goodwill, (iii) negative goodwill (net of taxes) related to acquisitions in the financial year, (iv) provisions (net of tax) for possible future liabilities, and impairments related to non-core financial investments, businesses and discontinued assets (or to be discontinued / repositioned), (v) results from valuations based on the methodology "mark-to-market" of other current investments that will be sold or traded in the near future and other underlying income (including dividends) and (vi) other irrelevant issues.

The value of EBITDA, Underlying EBITDA and EBIT are calculated only on the Direct Income component, i.e. excluding the indirect contributions.

Below is the reconciliation of two presentation formats for the consolidated income statement for the periods ended on 31 March 2025 and 2024:

NOS financial investment

Sonae is attributed a 37.37% of the share capital and of 37.65% of the voting rights in NOS, through the participation held by is subsidiary Sonaecom.

Considering the percentage of ownership indirectly attributable to Sonae, it was analysed in the light of IFRS 10, whether Sonae could exercise control over NOS. From this analysis, it was concluded that Sonae does not control the said company, as it does not hold the majority of the share capital and voting rights of NOS and it is not clear that i) Sonae can make decisions on its own and ii) it is unlikely that there is a majority contrary to its intentions. Given the above, and with Sonae having the possibility to participate in NOS's decision-making processes, we are facing a situation of significant influence, with the respective investment classified as "Investments in associates".

The consolidated financial information of NOS, used for the application of the equity method, includes adjustments resulting from the price allocation to the identified assets and liabilities in the 2013 merger operation and the September 2022 share purchase operation.

NOS Group provisions

The evolution in provisions occurred during the first 3 months of 2025 compared to 31 December 2024 was as follows:

1. Legal actions with regulators and Competition Authority (AdC)

Regarding the challenge by NOS, S.A., NOS Açores, and NOS Madeira to the acts of Anacom concerning the assessment of the "Taxa Anual de Atividade", by ruling of 29 October 2024, the Constitutional Court declared the unconstitutionality, with general binding force, of the rules of the aforementioned Ordinance 1473-B/2008, of 17 December, as amended by Ordinance 296- A/2013, of 2 October, insofar as they determine the incidence and the rate to be applied in relation to providers of electronic communications networks and services included in tier 2, for violation of the constitutional reserve of formal law. During the years ended 31 December 2023, 2024, and the quarter ended 31 March 2025, NOS recognised income of 38.5 million euros, 78.1 million euros and 5.5 million euros, respectively, corresponding to the amount relating to the pending impugnation processes whose assessments were issued under the rules deemed unconstitutional.

Regarding the July 2020 notification from the Competition Authority concerning digital marketing on the Google search engine, in December 2024, the AdC notified NOS of a new unlawful act notice (accusation) repeating the previous accusation, to which NOS presented its defence in 2025. In view of the information available to the Board of Directors, it is the Board's conviction that it will be able to demonstrate the various arguments in favour of its defence.

2. Action brought by DECO

Trial sessions were held in June and September 2024, followed by the closing arguments phase. The case has since been adjourned at the request of the parties. The Board of Directors considers that the arguments put forward by the plaintiff are unfounded, which is why it is believed that the outcome of the case should not have a significant impact on the Group's financial statements.

3.2.2 Movements occurred in the period

During the period ended on 31 March 2025, movements in investments in joint ventures and associates was as follows:

1,399,441 215,625 1,615,066

The effect on equity and non-controlled interests results fundamentally from the exchange rate conversion effect of companies with a functional currency other than the euro.
