Interest on capital financial

"approved the distribution of interest on capital in the gross amount of R$0.0449 per share"

Interest on capital is the cost a business pays for using money — either money it borrowed or funds provided by owners — and functions like rent paid for that capital. It matters to investors because higher interest payments reduce profits and cash available for dividends or growth, while lower interest costs leave more profit and improve company value; think of it as the price of fueling a company’s operations.

cumulative translation adjustments [CTA] financial

"Gains/(losses) on cumulative translation adjustment [CTA] were recognized in equity"

IFRIC 23 - Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments regulatory

"This uncertain tax treatment, in accordance with IFRIC 23 - Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments"

hyperinflation financial

"Effects of the application of IAS 29 (hyperinflation) are reflected in equity and assets"

A sustained episode when consumer prices soar so quickly that money loses its purchasing power rapidly, often overnight or month-to-month. Investors care because savings, bond returns and company earnings get distorted — like watching cash melt away — so asset values, interest rates and business forecasts can swing wildly and require different strategies to protect capital and preserve real returns.

Avenida Brigadeiro Faria Lima, 3732, Edifício B32, 16o, São Paulo, SP, Brasil, 04538-132 T: +55 (11) 4004-8000 Report on review interim consolidated financial statements To the Board of Directors and Shareholders Ambev S.A. Introduction We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated interim balance sheet of Ambev S.A. and its subsidiaries ("Consolidated") as at June 30, 2026 and the related consolidated income statements and comprehensive income for the quarter and six-month periods then ended, and the consolidated statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and explanatory notes. The Executive Board of Officers is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed interim 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). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons 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 parent company and consolidated condensed interim 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 June 30, 2026 compared to those used for the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025.

3.1 Recently issued IFRS

The amendments and new standards that became effective in 2026 were either not applicable to, or did not have a material impact on, these interim separate and consolidated financial statements, as summarized below.

Standard	Effective date	Highlights
IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 – Classify and Measurement of Financial Instruments	January 1, 2026	The changes clarify the criteria for the classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities, with an emphasis on the assessment of the contractual cash flows characteristics and the entity's business model. In addition, they enhance disclosure requirements, aiming to increase transparency regarding significant judgments, financial risks, and the impacts arising from the classification and measurement of financial instruments.

The following is the main change in accounting standard that, based on Management's assessment, will have an impact on the Company's disclosures in subsequent periods.

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.

3.1.1 IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements, which replaces IAS 1 and introduces new requirements aimed at improving the comparability of financial performance reporting and enhancing the transparency of the information provided to users. IFRS 18 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027, with early adoption permitted. The standard is required to be applied retrospectively.

AMBEV S.A.

While IFRS 18 does not affect the recognition or measurement of assets, liabilities, income or expenses, it’s expected to have a significant impact on the presentation of the primary financial statements and the related disclosures. IFRS 18 introduces new requirements to:

· present specified categories in the statement of profit or loss, including the introduction of new operating, investing and financing categories, as well as defined subtotals;

· require disclosures of management-defined performance measures (MPMs) in the notes to the financial statements; and

· strengthen the principles of aggregation and disaggregation across primary financial statements and the notes.

The company anticipates that the adoption of the standard will primarily affect the presentation of the statement of profit or loss and the statement of cash flows, the disclosure of management performance measures, and the structure of the related notes.

The company does not intend to early adopt IFRS 18 and is currently in the process of assessing and preparing for the impacts arising from its application to the individual and consolidated financial statements. The Company has assessed that the main change in presentation will be the reclassification of foreign exchange gains and losses and gains and losses on certain hedging instruments from “financial income and expenses,” as presented under IAS 1, to “operating profit,” as required under IFRS 18, when the underlying exposure measured or hedged is related to operating activities.

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 six-month period ended June 30, 2026.

The accounting policy which reflects significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 has not changed from those valid on December 31, 2025.

Effective January 2026, the Company ceased to consolidate its subsidiary in Cuba and started to account for as an associate using the equity method, in line with the application of the consolidation criteria under applicable accounting standards. As a result, the cash and cash equivalents balances of this investee are no longer included in the consolidated financial statements from that date. This effect is reflected in the line “Sale/(acquisition) and others related to subsidiaries, net of cash” in the Statements of Cash Flows.

The cash and cash equivalents balance include the amount of R$1,558,242 at June 30, 2026 (R$4,070,595 in December 31, 2025), in the consolidated financial statements, which is not freely remittable to the Parent Company. As of June 30, 2026, such restriction arises from the unavailability of foreign currency in Bolivia, although the funds remain available for use in the local operations of the respective subsidiary.

(i) Historically, tax authorities have offset tax losses ex-officio in administrative proceedings in which the Company and some of its subsidiaries are involved, resulting in an accumulated offset of R$314,817. This amount is included in the tax credits recognized under the line of tax losses carried forward. As of June 30, 2026, the amount remained unchanged since there were no new ex-officio offsets during the period. The contingencies in question have a probability of a possible loss.

8.1.1 Realization of deferred taxes

At June 30, 2026, the deferred tax assets and liabilities expected to be utilized/settled, not related to tax losses, are: (i) to be realized until 12 months R$1,435,794; and (ii) to be realized after 12 months R$(739,678).

8.1.2 Net change in deferred taxes

The net change in deferred income tax and social contribution is as follows:

At December 31, 2025	4,492,142
Investment hedges – obligations related to the acquisition of a non-controlling interest	(2,003)
Cash flow hedge – gains/(losses)	16,708

8.1.3 Deferred tax assets related to tax losses

Beyond the tax credits related to tax losses effectively recognized as part of the amounts disclosed above, there are other tax credits related to tax losses that were not recorded in the balance sheets due to their low expectations of realization, based on Management’s assessment. At June 30, 2026, the accumulated balance of these credits represented R$858,030 in taxable value (R$991,549 in December 31, 2025) equivalent to a taxable basis of R$3,252,253 in June 30, 2026 (R$3,788,686 in December 31, 2025).

Additionally, tax credits related to tax losses recorded in the Brazilian ECF (Tax Accounting Bookkeeping), for the purpose of calculating Taxation on a worldwide basis, ceased to be recognized, resulting in a principal amount of R$4,639,964 as of June 30, 2026 (R$5,289,511 as of December 31, 2025).

The main events that impacted the effective tax rate for the period were:

· Other non-taxable income: it refers mainly to the revenues arising from monetary updates (Selic) on tax credits.

· Government grants related to taxes on sales: these represent regional incentives and economic development policies, primarily related to local production to generate economic and social impact. Before the advent of Federal Law No. 14,789/2023, those grants were not subject to income tax and social contribution. In this regarding, since August 2024 companies in the group have obtained favorable decisions, in effect since then, exempting them from collecting IRPJ and CSLL on amounts determined as government grants related to tax benefits deemed as ICMS presumed credits.

· Non-deductible expenses: primarily refer to the additional costs incurred in acquiring foreign currency in certain jurisdictions where the Group operates, used mainly for the remittance of earnings to the parent companies.

· Taxation on a universal basis and other adjustments related to foreign subsidiaries: the additional income taxes due in Brazil on the income of foreign-controlled entities, in accordance with Law No. 12,973/2014. It also includes local permanent adjustments to foreign companies consolidated within the group, as well as the effects arising from some of these companies having a functional currency that differs from the currency used for tax calculations.

· Income tax incentives: it refers to tax incentives related to income tax granted by the Brazilian Federal Government to promote regional development in certain areas of the North and Northeast of the country and to the PAT (“Programa de Alimentação do Trabalhador”). These incentives are recorded in the results on an accruals basis and allocated to fiscal incentives reserve, as per item (13.3.1) "Tax incentives" within note 13 – Changes in equity.

· Withholding income tax: this balance is related to tax due on dividends to be distributed by subsidiaries located outside of Brazil under local tax legislation. The recorded amounts in 2026 are mainly related to withholding tax calculated on profits earned in 2026 and to exchange differences on deferred income tax related to the undistributed profits of subsidiaries.

AMBEV S.A.

· Deductible interest on capital (“IOC”): under Brazilian law, companies have an option to remunerate their shareholders through the payment of IOC, which is deductible for income tax purposes. The amount of IOC is impacted by the taxable result, net income reserves of the Company and by the long-term interest rate (“TJLP”). These remunerations are deductible for income tax purposes.

· Effects of the application of IAS 29 (hyperinflation): the Company’s subsidiary in Argentina operates in a hyperinflationary economy thus subject to the monetary correction of its non-financial assets and liabilities, its equity and its statement of income, which may impact the consolidated effective tax rate, implying variation between periods.

The subsidiaries in Argentina, Chile, and Panama have discount transactions of endorsed trade bills (trade payables securitization) with vendors in the amount of R$131,226 million at June 30, 2026 (R$20,247 million at December 31, 2025). In general, such discount transactions occur due to legal requirements existing in these jurisdictions. These transactions retain their commercial characteristics, as there are no changes to the previously agreed conditions (amount, terms, or counterparty), and it is the vendor’s discretion to anticipate its receivables. Therefore, these transactions do not result in any additional obligations for the Company.

At June 30, 2026, at December 31, 2025, and up to the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements, no events of default, breaches of covenants, or significant contractual changes occurred that would result in changes to the payment terms of loan and financing agreements.

11.2 Leasing contracts regarding the term and discount rate (Brazil)

The Company estimated the discount rates based on the risk-free interest rates observable in the Brazilian market over the terms of its contracts, adjusted to its specific circumstances (i.e. the credit 'spreads'). These spreads are based on surveys conducted with financial institutions. The table below presents the weighted average rates applied, considering the terms of the existing contracts:

2031 - 2040	13.18%	12.94%

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 likelihood of probable loss have their value reported directly in the income tax and social contribution payable line, as per IFRIC 23 - Uncertainty on the Treatment of Income Taxes.

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 likelihood of loss assessment carried out. Such proceedings represent the following estimates.

	06/30/2026	12/31/2025
Income tax and social contribution	78,000,854	72,201,276
Value-added and excise duties	29,577,012	28,810,054
PIS and COFINS	1,947,187	1,876,543
Others	3,669,580	3,046,204
	113,194,633	105,934,077

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.

AMBEV S.A.

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 between December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026, are summarized in the table below, along with their respective estimated values involved in the cases.

1	Deductibility of IOC expenses During the 2013 fiscal year, as approved in a General Meeting, the Company implemented a corporate restructuring aimed at simplifying its structure and unifying its share classes, among other objectives. One of the steps of this restructuring involved the exchange of shares and subsequent incorporation of the shares of its subsidiary Companhia de Bebidas das Américas into Ambev S.A. As a consequence of this operation, Ambev S.A. recognized in its accounting records the counterpart of the difference between the value of its shares issued for this exchange and the book value of the subsidiary's shares in equity, in accordance with IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements, under the item "adjustments to equity". As a result of this restructuring, since 2019, Ambev has been receiving tax assessments from the Brazilian Federal Tax Authorities (“RFB”) related to the interest on capital (“IOC”) deduction for calendar years 2014 to 2021. The assessments refer primarily to the accounting and corporate effects of the restructuring carried out by Ambev in 2013 and its impact on the increase in the deductibility of IOC expenses. In all cases Ambev obtained partially favorable decisions at the first-level administrative court and filed appeals to the Lower Administrative Court. The appeals related to tax assessments involving calendar years 2014 and 2017 to 2021 await judgment by the CARF. The favorable portion of the decisions rendered by the first-level administrative court in these cases is subject to mandatory review by the CARF as well. With respect to the tax assessment involving calendar years 2015 and 2016, in May 2024 the company obtained an unfavorable decision on the merits under discussion, but favorable as it relates to the fines charged by the tax authorities, as the court decision cancelled the qualified penalties charged. In December 2024, the favorable portion of the decision became final, and the Company appealed the unfavorable portion to CARF. In October 2025, the Company was notified of CARF’s unfavorable decision and, with respect to the main merits of the discussion, appealed to the Upper Administrative Court (“CSRF”) which awaits analysis. For a portion of the discussion relating to calendar year 2015 that became final at the administrative level, the Company appealed to the judicial courts. In December 2025, the Company obtained an unfavorable decision at the first level judicial court that did not analyze the merits of this portion of the discussion based on the understanding that it was dependent on the result of the main merits that is still pending at the administrative level. The Company will continue to discuss at the judicial level. In April 2026, the Upper Administrative Court (“CSRF”) did not accept the appeal regarding the main merits of the tax assessment and the Company filed a lawsuit to have the matter decided at the judicial level. The updated assessed value of this uncertain tax treatment, in accordance with IFRIC 23, is approximately R$32.8 billion as of June 30, 2026 (R$30.8 billion as of December 31, 2025). Due to the assessment of the likelihood of loss, no provision was made in the period. This uncertain tax treatment, according to IFRIC 23, continued to be applied by Ambev and affected subsequent calendar years to those assessed (2022 and 2023), during which the Company also distributed IOC and deducted them from the taxable base of its Income Tax. Therefore, if the deductibility of IOC is also questioned in the future, on the same basis and with the same grounds as the tax assessments mentioned, the Company estimates that the outcome of these potential new discussions would be consistent with the period already assessed. In December 2023, Provisional Measure 1,185, of August 2023, was converted into a law (No. 14,789/2023), which changes the basis for calculating Interest on Capital as of January 1, 2024, making this uncertain tax treatment limited to Interest on Capital calculated in accordance with legislation in force before the aforementioned law effective date.	32,786	30,782

2	Disallowance of tax paid abroad Since 2014, the Company has been receiving tax assessments, relating to calendar years from 2007 onwards, which disallow the use of foreign tax credits relating to income tax paid abroad by its controlled companies. The Company is challenging these assessments in the administrative and judicial courts. In November 2019, a final favorable decision was issued by CARF canceling the assessment regarding one of the cases, covering the calendar year 2010. For cases involving calendar years 2015 and 2016, the Company received unfavorable decisions, in the administrative level, in three out of four cases. The Company filed a lawsuit to discuss the matter and awaits a decision by the first level judicial court. In July 2024, CARF rendered a favorable decision to the Company in one case related to the 2012 calendar year, in march of 2026, such decision became final, resulting in the full cancellation of the assessment. In 2024, CARF also issued an unfavorable decision regarding evidentiary procedural requirements in a separate case involving the same matter for the 2012 tax year, and the Company filed a judicial action, which is currently awaiting a first-instance ruling. In January 2025, the Company received additional tax assessments related to the 2019 tax year and submitted administrative defenses, which were denied by the first-level administrative court in September 2025. The Company subsequently filed the corresponding voluntary appeals with CARF. In 2026, the Company received additional tax assessments related to the 2018, 2020 and 2023 tax years and filed administrative defenses which are currently awaiting judgment. With respect to proceedings relating to the remaining tax years, the Company is awaiting decisions at both the administrative and judicial levels. Additionally, tax assessments were issued imposing isolated penalties due to the alleged failure to make monthly IRPJ and CSLL payments as a result of the utilization of foreign tax credits arising from income taxes paid by foreign subsidiaries for the 2015 to 2020 tax years. The assessments relating to the 2015 to 2019 tax years were reviewed by CARF, which rendered unfavorable decisions for the Company, except for the assessment related to the 2017 tax year, for which a favorable decision was issued. None of these decisions is final, and both the Company and the tax authorities have filed appeals with the Superior Chamber of Tax Appeals (“CSRF”). In June 2026, the Company received an unfavorable at the first-level administrative court related to the 2020 tax case and intends to file an appeal with CARF. The updated assessed value of this uncertain tax treatment, in accordance with IFRIC 23 - Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments, is approximately R$23.6 billion as of June 30, 2026 (R$19.1 billion as of December 31, 2025), and, due to the assessment of the likelihood of loss, no provision was made in the period. This uncertain tax treatment, according to IFRIC, regarding income tax credits paid abroad, continued to be applied by the Company and impacted subsequent calendar years to those assessed (2021-2025). If new questions arise in the future, on the same basis and with the same grounds as the tax assessments mentioned, the Company estimates that the outcome of these potential new discussions would be consistent with the periods already assessed.	23,622	19,091
3	Foreign Earnings Since 2005, the Company and some of its subsidiaries have been subject to tax assessments filed by the RFB relating to the taxation in Brazil of profits earned by subsidiaries domiciled abroad under various arguments. The Company is challenging these assessments in the administrative and judicial courts. In 2022 and 2023, CARF rendered favorable and partially favorable decisions to the Company, related to 2012 and 2014 calendar year. The decisions cancelled part of the disputed tax assessments, recognizing the validity of the methodology adopted by the Company with respect to the taxation of foreign profits and the goodwill amortization by foreign subsidiaries. Part of these decisions became final, representing the cancellation of the related tax contingency in the approximate amount 1.0 billion Brazilian real as of 30 September 2024. In August 2024 Ambev received a partially favorable decision from the first-level administrative court with respect to a tax assessment related to the 2018 calendar year. Both Ambev and the tax authorities filed appeals and the case awaits decision by CARF. In November 2024, Ambev received a new tax assessment relating to the taxation of foreign profits for calendar year 2019 and filed a defense, the outcome of which was partially favorable to the Company. The Company filed an appeal to CARF which is awaiting judgment. In December 2025, the Company received a new tax assessment relating to calendar year 2020 and filed the defense with the first-level administrative court. In June 2026, the first-level administrative court issued a partially favorable decision to the Company. This decision is not final, and both the Company and the tax authorities have filed appeals with CARF. In the judicial proceedings, Ambev has received favorable injunctions that suspend the enforceability of the tax credits, as well as favorable first-level decisions. Part of these decisions were confirmed by the second-level judicial courts and other reverted. All these second-level judicial court decisions are not final and were subject to appeal by the Company and the tax authorities, as the case may be, and can be reviewed by the Superior Court of Justice. The updated amount of this uncertain tax treatment, in accordance with IFRIC 23, already assessed, is approximately R$7.1 billion as of June 30, 2026 (R$8.0 billion as of December 31, 2025). This uncertain tax treatment, according to IFRIC 23, continued to be applied by the Company and impacted subsequent calendar years to those assessed (2021-2025). If new inquiries arise in the future, on the same basis and with the same grounds as the tax assessments mentioned, the Company estimates that the outcome of these eventual new discussions would be consistent with the periods already assessed.	7,083	7,996

1	Social contributions – Other Credits In 2022, Ambev received a tax assessment and administrative decisions challenging the offsetting regarding certain PIS/COFINS’ credits. The tax authorities primarily argue that (i) certain credits claimed by Ambev are unrelated to the production proceedings and (ii) Ambev has not adequately demonstrated its right to utilize such credits. The assessment was challenged at the administrative level and after a partially favorable judgment, Ambev filed an appeal with CARF, which resulted in the proceeding being remanded for tax expert examination in September 2024. In March 2026, the Lower Administrative Court (CARF) issued a partially favorable decision in the taxpayer’s appeal. While certain relevant matters were decided in favor of the company, the main issues were ruled against the taxpayer by a tie-vote. This decision is not final, as the written decision is still pending formal notice and may be subject to review by the Upper Administrative Court. The Company estimates that the updated amount classified as a possible loss related to these proceedings is approximately R$642.0 million as of June 30, 2026 (R$615.1 million as of December 31, 2025).	642	615

12.2.2 Tax Proceeding Initiated by the Group 

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 changes until June 30, 2026, are summarized in the table below.

Federal taxation on VAT Incentives After the enactment of Law No. 14,789, effective as of Jan 1st, 2024, the VAT incentives deemed as “government grants for investment”, began being taxed for IRPJ/CSLL and PIS/COFINS purposes. With that respect, Ambev and some of its subsidiaries in Brazil have filled their own legal procedures to challenge the legal aspects of the newly enacted Law. 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 June 30, 2026, the accumulated amounts of R$244 million and R$700 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. The Company, in turn, also holds a call option to acquire the Tranche B shares, exercisable from 2029 onwards, at which point both options will coexist.

At June 30, 2026, the Tranche B shares held by ELJ were valued at R$1,217,233 (R$1,154,203 at December 31, 2025). 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.

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.

The objective of this policy is intended to provide guidelines for the management of the financial risks inherent to the capital markets in which Ambev operates. The policy includes four main aspects related to financial risk management: (i) transactional risks related to the business; (ii) credit risks of counterparties financial statement translation risk; (iii) capital structure; financing and liquidity credit risks of financial counterparties and (iv) financial statement translation risk capital structure; financing and liquidity.

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 June 30, 2026, the Company and its subsidiaries did not hold hedge positions to the exposure described below:

	06/30/2026			12/31/2025
	Risk			Risk
	Interest rate	Amount in Brazilian Real		Interest rate	Amount in Brazilian Real
Brazilian Reais	12.0%	1,850,765		11.1%	2,172,861
Other	13.7%	572,436		15.1%	628,508
US Dollars	7.8%	510		2.4%	9,750
Canadian Dollars	5.2%	263,376		5.5%	314,790
Pre-fixed interest rate		2,687,087			3,125,909
Brazilian Reais	7.4%	261,873		7.6%	261,015
Post - fixed interest rate		261,873			261,015

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 flow.

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

AMBEV S.A.

Financial assets effects		-	-	-	-
		-	(2,371)	(494,968)	(989,936)

20.4.1.2 Commodity 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.

20.4.1.3 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.

20.4.2 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 June 30, 2026. At June 30, 2026, 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.
