Interim consolidatedfinancial statements atSeptember 30, 2025and report on review



Report on review of interim

consolidated financial statements

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

Ambev S.A.

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying interim consolidated balance sheet of Ambev S.A. and its subsidiaries ("Company") as at September 30, 2025, the related interim consolidated income statement and statement of comprehensive income for the quarter and nine-month periods then ended and the related interim consolidated statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine-month period then ended, and notes, comprising a summary of material accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with the accounting standard International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim consolidated financial statements based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standards on Reviews of Interim Financial Information (ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim information consists of making inquiries, primarily of people responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements referred to above are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34.

3. SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
--- ---

The accounting practices adopted by the Company are consistent for all the years and periods presented. There were no changes to the accounting policies or calculation methods used for the interim consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2025 compared to those used for the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2024.

3.1 Recently issued IFRS

The following new and amended standards that came into effect in 2025 were not applicable to or did not have any material impact on these consolidated financial statements:

Standard Highlights
IAS21 - The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates The implemented modifications foresee the application of a consistent approach when assessing whether one currency can be converted into another, along with new guidance regarding measurement and disclosure in contexts where the currency is not considered convertible.

The following are the main changes in accounting standards that, based on Management's assessment, may have an impact on the Company's disclosures in subsequent periods:

Standard Issue Date Highlights Effective  date
IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements April 2024 The standard aims to address investor demands for more relevant and comparable information disclosed in the financial statements of entities. IFRS 18 introduces changes to the income statement with three new categories of revenues and expenses - operating, investing, and financing - two mandatory subtotals, and changes in the grouping of balances. Additionally, it requires disclosures in the notes regarding performance measures defined by management, changes in the statement of cash flows, and new presentation requirements for expenses by nature or function. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impacts of adopting this standard on consolidated financial statements. Periods beginning on January 1, 2027

Beyond the above, the Company does not anticipate that any other standards or amendments to IFRS® standards or IFRIC® interpretations that have not yet come into force could have a material impact on the Group's financial statements. The Company has not opted for the early adoption of any standards.

4. USE OF ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS

The preparation of interim consolidated financial statements in compliance with IFRS requires Management to make use of judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect both the application of accounting practices and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and significant judgment are based on past experience and on other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments regarding the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that cannot readily be determined based on other sources. The actual results achieved may differ from these estimates.

Such estimates and assumptions are reviewed on a regular basis. Changes in accounting estimates may affect the results for the period during which they are realized, or for future periods.

The impairment test is performed annually considering the most accurate estimates calculated by Management. The Company’s Management has not identified any relevant indications of impairment in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025.

The accounting policy which reflects significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 has not changed from those valid on December 31, 2024.

This reversal occurred due to the application, by the tax authorities,<br> of Article 14 of Brazilian Federal Law No. 14,689/2023 to a portion of the outstanding tax debt under PERT, which resulted in the<br> recovery of expenses incurred in prior periods. This article establishes the unenforceability of tax penalties imposed in tax<br> assessments that exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the tax debt amount, which had been declared unconstitutional by the Federal<br> Supreme Court, as well as the unenforceability of the related interests. The total reduction in the liability amounted to R$644<br> million, of which R$375 million was recorded under income tax, relating to the penalty reduction portion, this being the main effect<br> reflected in the others with reduced taxation line item for the period, and R$269 million was recognized in financial income,<br> relating to the interests incurred. | | --- | --- |

12. PROVISIONS, CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND CONTINGENT ASSETS
--- ---

The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in administrative and judicial proceedings and arbitrations arising from the normal course of business. The assessment of the likelihood of loss, carried out by the Company with the support of its legal advisors, considers the likelihood of the Company position being accepted at the end of the proceedings, considering the applicable legislation, the case law on the subject and the existing evidence. Due to their nature, these proceedings involve inherent uncertainties, including, but not limited to, decisions by courts and tribunals agreements between the parties involved and governmental actions and, as a result, Management cannot, at this stage, estimate the precise timing to conclude such proceedings.


12.1 Provisions

The lawsuits considered probable of loss are fully provisioned, under the terms of IAS 37 - Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, and have a tax, civil or labor nature. Cases are considered likelihood of loss when there is established or binding case law unfavorable to the position defended by the Company and its subsidiaries, or, in the case of factual or evidentiary disputes, when the Company and its subsidiaries do not have the necessary and sufficient evidence to prove the claimed right.


12.1.1 Main lawsuits with a probable likelihood of loss


Taxes on sales: in Brazil, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various administrative and judicial proceedings related to ICMS, IPI, PIS and COFINS taxes, considered as probable likelihood of loss. Such proceedings include, among others, tax offsetting, appropriation of tax credits and alleged insufficient payment of the respective taxes.

Labor: the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to labor lawsuits considered likely to result in loss, involving former employees, including those from outsourced service providers. The main issues involve overtime and related effects and respective charges.

Civil: the Company and its subsidiaries are involved in civil proceedings considered as representing a probable likelihood of loss. The most relevant portion of these lawsuits was filed by former distributors, mainly in Brazil, mostly claiming damages resulting from the termination of their contracts with the Company.

Other taxes: refer to provisions for lawsuits concerning taxes unrelated to sales or income taxation. The uncertain tax treatments related to income taxes with a prognosis of probable loss have their value reported directly in the income tax and social contribution payable line, as per IFRIC 23 - Uncertaintyon the Treatment of Income Taxes.

The expected settlement of provisions was based on Management’s best estimate, in line with their internal and external legal advisors’ assessments, at the consolidated balance sheet date.


12.2 Contingencies


The Company and its subsidiaries maintain administrative and judicial disputes with fiscal authorities in Brazil related to certain tax positions adopted when calculating the income tax and social contribution, which, based on Management’s current evaluation, probably are going to be accepted in superior court decisions of last instance, considering the regular compliance with tax laws, case law, and evidence produced, in line with IFRIC 23 - Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments. The Group is also part on tax proceedings related to other taxes, which involve possible loss risk, according to Management's assessment. To these uncertain tax treatments and possible contingencies there are no constituted provision, due to the prognosis assessment carried out. Such proceedings represent the following estimates.

09/30/2025 12/31/2024
Income tax and social contribution 68,132,422 65,174,567
Value-added and excise duties 27,218,944 28,139,743

Others 2,623,851 2,552,048

Contingencies with a remote risk of loss are not disclosed, as the possibility of any settlement is remote, in accordance with IAS 37 - Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets.

The Company and its subsidiaries have guarantee-insurance bonds and letters of guarantee for some legal proceedings, presented as guarantees on civil, labor and tax lawsuits.

12.2.1 Main contingencies with a possible risk of loss


The changes in the amount of contingencies reported relate mainly to the increase resulting from monetary restatement. In addition, the main process classified with a possible loss probability, which relevant changed until September 30, 2025, are summarized in the table below, along with their respective estimated values involved in the cases.


Uncertainty over the treatment of income taxes<br><br> <br>In accordance with IFRIC 23 (note 8.1 - Income tax and social contribution) Estimates<br><br> <br>(in million of Brazilian Reais)
# Description of the main processes 09/30/2025 12/31/2024
1 Disallowance of tax paid abroad<br><br> <br>Since<br> 2014, the Company has been receiving tax assessments, relating to calendar years from 2007 onwards, which disallow the use of foreign<br> tax credits relating to income tax paid abroad by its controlled companies. The Company is challenging these assessments in the administrative<br> and judicial courts. In November 2019, a final favorable decision was issued by the Administrative Council of Tax Appeals (“CARF”)<br> canceling the assessment regarding one of the cases, covering the calendar year 2010. For cases involving calendar years 2015 and 2016,<br> the Company received unfavorable decisions, in the administrative level, in three out of four cases. The Company filed a lawsuit to discuss<br> the matter and awaits a decision by the first-instance judicial court. In July 2024, the Lower Administrative Court rendered a favorable<br> decision to the Company in one case related to the 2012 calendar year (approximately R$1.4 billion). The Company awaits the notification<br> of the decision in order to assess, together with its external advisors, any potential impacts on the likelihood of loss of this portion<br> of the contingency. In January 2025, the Company received new assessments related to the 2019 calendar year and submitted administrative defenses. In September 2025, Ambev received an unfavorable decision, which it has appealed to the Lower Administrative Court.<br> which are pending judgment. The other cases are still awaiting final decisions<br> at both administrative and judicial courts.<br><br> <br>In connection with the disallowance of tax paid abroad, the RFB filed additional<br> tax assessments to charge isolated fines due to the lack of monthly prepayments of income tax as a result of allegedly undue deductions<br> of taxes paid abroad. The Company has received tax assessments charging such fines for the calendar years 2015 to 2019. For the tax assessments<br> related to the periods of 2016, 2018 and 2019, Ambev received unfavorable decisions from the first-level administrative court and filed<br> appeals in connection therewith, which are pending judgment by the Lower Administrative Court**. In August 2024, for the tax assessments related to the periods of 2015 and 2017, Ambev received an unfavorable decision by the Lower Administrative Court for the case related to the calendar year of 2015, which was confirmed by the Upper Administrative Court in August 2025 and will be appealed to the judicial court by Ambev; and a favorable decision for the case related to the calendar year of 2017, which is not final and the tax authorities have filed an appeal to the Upper Administrative Court.**<br><br> <br>The updated assessed value of this uncertain tax treatment, in accordance<br> with IFRIC 23 - Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments, is approximately R$18.4 billion as of September 30, 2025 (R$15.9<br> billion as of December 31, 2024), and, due to the assessment of the likelihood of loss, no provision was made in the period. This uncertain<br> tax treatment, according to IFRIC, regarding income tax credits paid abroad, continued to be applied by the Company and impacted subsequent<br> calendar years to those assessed (2018, 2020-2024). If new questions arise in the future, on the same basis and with the same grounds<br> as the tax assessments mentioned, the Company estimates that the outcome of these potential new discussions would be consistent with the<br> periods already assessed. 18,450 15,932<br><br> <br>****
2 Disallowance on Income Tax deduction<br><br> <br>In January 2020, Arosuco (a subsidiary of Ambev) received a tax assessment<br> from the IRS, relating to the calendar years 2015 to 2018, disallowing the tax reduction benefit provided for in “MP” No.<br> 2,199-14/2001, based on Operating Profit, and filed an administrative challenge. In October 2020, Arosuco was notified of the unfavorable<br> decision in the administrative first instance and filed an appeal against the aforementioned decision.<br><br> <br>In February 2024, the Lower Administrative Court rendered a partially favorable decision in favor of Arosuco recognizing its right to benefit from the income tax reduction, which was confirmed on appeal in August 2025. The unfavorable portion relates to the claim regarding a difference in the methodology for calculating the benefit and IOC distribution and concerns approximately R$ 100 million. As a result of the portion of the decision that was favorable to Arosuco, the possible contingency was reduced by R$2.8 billion in theperiod, due to its definitive write-off.<br><br> <br>The updated assessed value of this uncertain tax treatment, in accordance<br> with IFRIC 23 - Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments, is approximately R$0,2 billion as of September 30, 2025 (R$2.9 billion as<br> of December 31, 2024). Due to the assessment of the likelihood of loss, no provision was made in the period.<br><br> <br>This uncertain tax treatment, according to IFRIC 23, affected subsequent<br> calendar years to those assessed (2019 to 2024), during which Arosuco similarly benefited from the tax reduction provided for in the aforementioned<br> Provisional Measure 2,199-14/2001. If there are any new inquiries in the future on the same matter, on the same bases and with the same<br> grounds as the tax assessments mentioned, Arosuco estimates that the outcome of these potential new discussions would be consistent with<br> the period already assessed. 0.188 2,861

# Description of the main process 09/30/2025 12/31/2024
1 ICMS-ST Trigger<br><br> <br>Over the years, Ambev has received tax assessments to charge supposed<br> ICMS differences considered due when the price of the products sold by Ambev is above the fixed price table basis established by the<br> relevant states, cases in which the state tax authorities contend that the calculation basis should be based on a value-added<br> percentage over the actual prices and not the fixed table price. Ambev is currently challenging those charges before the courts. The<br> cases are being challenged at both the administrative and judicial levels. In February 2025, the Supreme Court rendered its judgment on Topic 816, establishing a limit of 20% for late payment fines. This decision is applicable to certain cases under consideration and represents a reclassification of potential loss from possible to remote, amounting to R$0.8 billion reais. In July 2025, Law No. 25,378/2025 of the state of Minas Gerais, which limits the application of isolated fines to maximum of 50% of the tax due, was enacted. This law is applicable to a portion of the cases under discussion and resulted in a reclassification of approximately R$1.0 billion Brazilian real from possible to remote loss.<br><br> <br>The Company estimates that the total updated amount of<br> possible risk involved in the processes related to this matter, as of September 30, 2025, is approximately R$10.4 billion (R$12<br> billion on December 31st, 2024). 10,449 11,966

The Company is also a party on other tax proceedings in which it is the plaintiff and discusses the possibility of recovering or avoiding the payment of taxes that, in the Administration's view, lack constitutional and/or legal support for their enforcement. As disclosed on the accounting policy, the Company does not recognize contingent assets in its financial statements. If the inflow of economic benefits becomes probable, based on a forecast assessment conducted by external legal advisors in conjunction with the internal assessment of the Administration, the Company discloses the contingent asset. When the inflow of economic benefits becomes virtually certain, such as when a final judgment is rendered in the case and the gain can be reliably estimated, the asset is no longer contingent, and the Company recognizes it in the financial statements in period in which the estimate has changes.

The contingent assets with relevant changed until September 30, 2025, are summarized in the table below.

Contingent assets
# Description of the main processes
1 Cerbuco Brewing Inc. arbitration<br><br> <br>Cerbuco Brewing Inc. (“Cerbuco”), a Canadian subsidiary of Ambev,<br> owns a 50% equity ownership in Cerveceria Bucanero S.A. (“Bucanero”), a joint venture in Cuba. In 2021, Cerbuco initiated<br> an arbitration proceeding at the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”), relating to a potential breach of certain obligations<br> in connection with the joint venture. On 24 October 2024, the ICC released an arbitration award partially favorable to Cerbuco. The decision<br> is final and the second phase of the arbitration for quantification of damages is ongoing. In May 2025, Cerbuco was notified of an annulment<br> action filed by Coralsa (its partner in the joint venture) in Paris, against the arbitral award. The proceedings are ongoing, and no decision<br> has been rendered in the case to date. The outcome of both proceedings which may trigger other actions, including reevaluating IFRS 10<br> - Consolidated Financial Statements application.

During 2024 and 2025, some of the companies obtained favorable judicial decisions related to VAT Incentives deemed as ICMS presumed credits which relief them, from the calculation periods starting after each decision was issued, from taxing IRPJ/CSLL and PIS/COFINS, having those decisions amounted to, until September 30, 2025, the accumulated amounts of R$139 million and R$457<br> million, respectively.

13.3.1 Tax incentives


The tax incentives recognized by the Company in its net equity, under profit reserves, relate to industrial development programs that aim at the fostering of employment generation, increasing of regional decentralization, in addition to complementing and diversifying the industrial bases of some regions and states in Brazil. In these states, the grace periods and incentive terms are set out in normative acts issued by the respective states, and when there are conditions for obtaining these grants, they are under the Company’s control. The tax treatment of states incentives complies with the provisions of current federal, state, and municipal legislation, particularly Complementary Federal Law No. 160/2017 and CONFAZ Agreement No. 190/2017. Following the revocation of Article 30 of Federal Law No. 12,973/14 by Federal Law No. 14,789/23, the state tax incentives in the form of presumed ICMS credits have ceased to be allocated to the tax incentive reserve, starting from 2024. The other federal and state tax incentives continue to be recognized as reserve.

PUT CND


In accordance with the Shareholders' Agreement of Tenedora CND S.A. ("Tenedora”) – holding company headquartered in the Dominican Republic which owns almost the entire share capital of CND – executed between the Company and E. León Jimenes, S.A. (“ELJ”), ELJ is the owner of 2.89% of the shares of Tenedora, and has a put option for such remaining interest, corresponding to Tranche B as provided in the Agreement. This put option may be exercised by ELJ starting as from 2026 (or prior to that date in the event of a change of control of Tenedora or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets). The Company, in turn, holds call option over the Tranche B shares, exercisable starting from 2029.

At September 30, 2025, the Tranche B shares held by ELJ were valued at R$1,098,762 (R$1,184,177 at December 31, 2024). The fair value of Tranche B was calculated based on the EBITDA multiple defined in the agreement, less net debt, and discounted to present value using standard valuation techniques, based on the present value of the principal and future interest, discounted using the local currency WACC as of the measurement date. The valuation inputs are based on market information from reliable sources and are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Contingent consideration on acquisitions of G&W and Banded Peak

On January 2020, the Company’s subsidiary in Canada, Labatt Brewing Company Limited, acquired G&W Distilling Inc., a company with a portfolio of ready-to-drink alcoholic beverages. In the same month, Labatt also purchased the shares of Banded Peak Brewing Ltd., a Canadian craft brewery.

A portion of the purchase consideration for both transactions included contingent consideration based on the future performance of G&W and Banded Peak after the acquisition**.** During the first quarter of 2025, Labatt settled the total outstanding amount of the contingent consideration owed to Banded Peak. Additionally, reduction in the balance was mainly due to the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration owed to G&W. Thus, in September 30, 2025, the fair value of the G&W contingent consideration was R$264,846 (R$300,519 in December 31, 2024, including the Banded Peak contingent consideration. Management expects the G&W contingent consideration to be settled during fiscal year 2025.

20.4 Risk management


The Company is exposed to foreign currency, interest rate, commodity price, liquidity and credit risk in the ordinary course of its business. The Company analyzes each of these risks individually and on a consolidated basis to define strategies to manage their economic impact in accordance with its Financial Risk Management Policy.

| **AMBEV S.A.** |

| --- |


20.4.1 Market risk

20.4.1.1 Interest rate risk**:** represents of the possibility that the Company may incur losses due to fluctuations in interest rates, which may increase the financial expenses on its financial liabilities, and/or decrease the financial income from its financial assets, as well as negatively impacting the fair value of financial instruments measured at fair value. To mitigate this risk the Company applies a dynamic interest rate hedging approach, whereby the target mix between fixed and floating rate debt is reviewed periodically. The purpose of the Company’s policy is to achieve an optimal balance between the cost of funding and the volatility of financial results, considering market conditions. The Company’s overall business strategy is reviewed periodically.

The table below demonstrates the exposure of the Company and its subsidiaries to debts and respective weighted interest rates. As of September 30, 2025, the Company and its subsidiaries did not hold hedge positions to the exposure described below:

Brazilian Reais 7.6% 254,899 7.8% 254,282
Post - fixed interest rate 254,899 254,282

Sensitivity analysis

The Company mitigates most of the risks arising from non-derivative financial assets and liabilities through the use of derivative financial instruments. In this context, the Company has identified the main risk factors that could lead to losses on these derivative financial instruments and has developed a sensitivity analysis based on three scenarios that could impact the Company’s future results and/or cash flows.

| **AMBEV S.A.** |

| --- |

The sensitivity analysis of exchange rate fluctuations and commodity price variations is presented below:

09/30/2025
Transaction Risk Fair Value Probable scenario Adverse scenario Remote scenario
Commodities hedges Increases in commodities price 77,538 119,569 1,382,322 2,687,106

Results of expense effects - (49) (15,221) (30,443)
- (1,767) (492,705) (985,410)

20.4.1.3Commodity risk: A significant portion of the Company’s inputs is comprised of commodities, which have historically experienced substantial price fluctuations. The Company's Policy establishes that entering into hedges is an appropriate way to protect the Company against unforeseen fluctuations in prices and foreign exchange rates**.** The Company therefore uses both fixed-price purchase contracts and derivative financial instruments to minimize its exposure to volatility in the prices of commodities such as aluminum, sugar, wheat, corn and paraxylene. These derivative financial instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges.

20.4.2 Credit risk

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, trade receivables (excluding prepaid expenses), recoverable taxes and derivative financial instruments are presented net of impairment provisions, and represent the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk at September 30, 2025. At September 30, 2025, there was no concentration of credit risk on any counterparty in excess of the limits established by the Company’s Credit Risk Policy. Counterparty risk is reassessed on a quarterly basis.

Customers

A substantial portion of the Company’s sales is made to distributors, supermarkets, and retailers through a broad distribution network. Credit risk is mitigated by the large number of customers and by the control procedures implemented to monitor this risk. Historically, the Company has not incurred significant losses on receivables from customers.

Investments

In order to minimize the credit risk on its investments, the Company has adopted cash and investment allocation procedures that take into account credit limits and credit analysis of financial institutions, thereby avoiding credit concentration, i.e. the credit risk is monitored and minimized by restricting negotiations to a select group of highly rated counterparties.

| **AMBEV S.A.** |

20.4.3 Liquidity risk

Historically, the Company’s primary sources of cash flow have been cash flow from operating activities, debt issuances, bank borrowing and equity securities. Ambev’s material cash requirements have included the following: payments of dividends and interest on capital; capital expenditures; investments in companies; increases in the ownership interests in Ambev’s subsidiaries or in companies in which it holds equity investments; share buyback programs; and debt servicing.

The Company believes that its cash flow from operating activities, cash and cash equivalents and short-term financial investments, together with derivatives financial instruments and access to credit facilities, are sufficient to finance its capital expenditure, financial liabilities and dividend payments in the future.

20.4.4 Capital management

The Company continuously evaluates and optimizes its capital structure in order to maximize shareholder value while maintaining the desired financial flexibility to execute its strategic projects. In addition to the statutory minimum equity funding requirements applicable to the Company’s subsidiaries in different countries, the Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. When analyzing its capital structure, the Company uses the same debt ratios and capital classifications that are applied in the financial statements.

The company monitors its net debt to ensure the continuity of its operations over the long term.

20.4.5 Foreign currency risk


The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on its borrowing, investments, purchases, dividends and/or interest expenses/income where these are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the respective Group entities. The main derivative financial instruments used to manage foreign currency risk are futures contracts, swaps, options, non-deliverable forwards and deliverable forwards.


20.5 Offsetting financial assets and liabilities


For financial assets and liabilities that are subject to settlement agreements or similar agreements, each agreement between the Company and the counterparty allows such settlement when both parties elect to do so. In the absence of such election, the assets and liabilities are settled at their gross amounts; however, each party retains the option to settle on a net basis in the event of default by the counterparty.

20.6 Risk management in relation to climate change andthe sustainability strategy


Considering the nature of the Company’s operations, they are inherently exposed to certain risks related to climate change and other relevant sustainability matters.

There have been no changes in the key risks considered by management compared to those disclosed in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.
