Rhea-AI Filing Summary

VEON Ltd. reported a strong start to 2026, with 1Q26 revenue up 17.0% year-on-year to USD 1,201 million and EBITDA up 17.7% to USD 517 million. Growth was broad-based, led by a 57.7% surge in digital revenues to USD 303 million, which now represent 25.2% of group revenue, while telecom and infrastructure revenue rose 7.6% to USD 898 million.

EBITDA margin edged up to 43.0%, helped by cost discipline and operating leverage.

Net debt excluding leases was broadly stable at USD 1,764 million, with leverage improving to 1.07x EBITDAaL.

VEON raised its 2026 revenue growth outlook to 11%–14% in USD terms and kept EBITDA growth guidance at 7%–10%, while modestly lifting expected capex intensity (ex‑Ukraine) to 15%–17%. The company is executing a USD 100 million buyback, having repurchased 959.3 thousand ADSs for USD 49.6 million as part of a wider capital return policy targeting at least USD 100 million annually, subject to conditions.

Insights

VEON delivered double‑digit growth, stronger cash generation and raised 2026 revenue guidance.

VEON’s 1Q26 performance shows solid top-line and operating momentum. Total revenue grew 17.0% to USD 1,201 million, with digital businesses up 57.7% to USD 303 million and contributing a quarter of group revenue. EBITDA increased 17.7% to USD 517 million, and the margin improved to 43.0%, indicating good cost control alongside growth investments.

Cash generation was notably stronger: equity free cash flow after leases and licenses rose 73.4% year-on-year to USD 246 million. Net debt excluding leases was USD 1,764 million, and leverage improved to 1.07x EBITDAaL, reflecting a relatively conservative balance sheet even as lease liabilities increased after tower transactions. This supports ongoing investment in spectrum and digital platforms.

Management raised 2026 revenue growth guidance to 11%–14% in USD terms while maintaining 7%–10% EBITDA growth guidance and slightly higher capex intensity ex‑Ukraine at 15%–17%. The ongoing USD 100 million buyback (with USD 49.6 million already deployed) and a stated goal of at least USD 100 million in annual buybacks highlight a clearer capital return framework. Subsequent filings will show whether revenue, EBITDA and leverage trends remain consistent with this upgraded outlook.

EBITDAaL financial
"Net Debt Excl. Leases / EBITDAaL 1.07x"
capex intensity financial
"LTM Capex Intensity 20.4% (15.8% ex Ukraine)"
Capex intensity measures how much a company spends on long‑term physical assets (capital expenditures) for each dollar of revenue or business activity, showing how asset‑heavy its operations are. Think of it like the amount you must regularly invest in a car’s repairs and upgrades compared with how much you drive: higher capex intensity means more cash tied up in maintaining or growing the business, which can reduce short‑term profits but may be needed for future growth.
Equity Free Cash Flow financial
"Equity Free Cashflow (after lease & license)2 USD 246 million"
Equity free cash flow is the amount of cash a company generates that is available to pay shareholders after it pays operating costs, reinvests in the business, and handles debt-related payments and borrowings. Think of it as the household money left over after paying bills, fixing the house, and settling loans—funds that could be used for dividends, share buybacks, or retained for future needs. Investors use it to judge how much real cash a company can return to owners and to value a stock.

EARNINGS RELEASE & OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS 1Q26 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Strong Start to 2026 with Robust Delivery in 1Q Dubai, New York, May 13, 2026 – VEON Ltd. (Nasdaq: VEON, the “Company”), a global digital operator providing converged connectivity and online services, today announced financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026. In 1Q26, VEON reported revenue growth of 17.0% YoY with total revenues for the quarter reaching USD 1,201 million. This was supported by resilient telecom and infrastructure revenues and continued growth in digital revenues. Digital revenues rose 57.7% YoY in USD terms to USD 302.7 million and comprised 25.2% of Group revenues. EBITDA for 1Q26 amounted to USD 517 million, representing a 17.7% YoY increase. EBITDA margin expanded by 20 basis points YoY to 43.0%, reflecting operating leverage and continued cost discipline, with margins of 45.9 % for the telecom and infrastructure businesses and 34.6% for digital businesses for 1Q26. Effective 1Q26, revenues from our enterprise identity and credentials management services are reported within the Digital Enterprise vertical, with prior period financials reclassified accordingly to ensure comparability. Group capex was USD 138 million in 1Q26, which translated to a last-twelve-months (“LTM”) capex intensity of 20.4% (15.8% excluding Ukraine). VEON is introducing disclosure of digital capex, which amounted to USD 12 million in the quarter, with LTM digital capex intensity at 5.5%. LTM Telecom and infrastructure capex intensity was 24.9% for 1Q26 (18.7% ex Ukraine) and reflects continued investment in telecom network modernization and infrastructure deployment. As of March 31, 2026, total cash, cash equivalents and deposits stood at USD 1,755 million, including USD 464 million of customer deposits from banking operations in Pakistan, with USD 457 million held at headquarters. The ratio of Net debt (excluding lease liabilities) to EBITDA improved to 1.07x (from 1.09x as of December 31, 2025). VEON is revising up its revenue growth guidance for 2026 to 11%–14% YoY in USD terms (versus 9%-12% earlier), while maintaining EBITDA growth guidance of 7%–10% YoY in USD terms. Capex intensity (excluding Ukraine) for FY26 is now expected in the range of 15%–17% (earlier 14%-16%) to reflect higher capex in Pakistan to leverage recent spectrum wins to stronger data monetization and revenue growth. Under its USD 100 million buyback program launched on November 14, 2025, VEON has repurchased 959.3K ADSs for USD 49.6 million and USD 3 million of the 2027 Notes as of May 11, 2026. Including earlier phases of the program first announced in August 2024, VEON has repurchased 3.1 million ADSs for a total consideration of USD 149.6 million. In addition, VEON recently introduced a capital return policy targeting at least USD 100 million annually through share buybacks, subject to market conditions, liquidity considerations and requisite internal approvals. Management and shareholder alignment remains strong, with leadership owning 1.84% of VEON’s ADSs as of 27 March 2026. Other notable post-quarter developments: On April 14, 2026 VEON announced that the Competition Commission of Pakistan approved up to 69.66% of TPL Insurance by VEON’s subsidiary Jazz International Holding Limited (JIH) for ~PKR 4.15 billion (USD 14.6m) from TPL Corp. On April 20, 2026 JIH launched a mandatory tender offer for an additional 6.67% at PKR 30/share. Closing is expected mid-2026. Mobilink Microfinance Bank Limited is progressing its acquisition of Apna Microfinance Bank Limited to scale digital banking and expand financial inclusion in Pakistan, subject to regulatory approvals. VEON’s partnership with StarLink continues to expand with Banglalink to launch in Bangladesh. In 2026 Beeline Kazakhstan is readying for launch as well. Kyivstar has surpassed 5 million users in Ukraine since launch and has recently expanded its collaboration with Starlink with an agreement to resell Starlink broadband internet services and hardware for businesses and public sector institutions.

EARNINGS RELEASE & OPERATING HGHLIGHTS 1Q26 6 1Q26 GROUP PERFORMANCE Operational and Financial Overview In 1Q26, VEON delivered a solid operational and financial performance, with Group revenue of USD 1,201 million, up 17.0% YoY, reflecting broad-based growth across operating markets.

Digital revenues reached USD 303 million, growing 57.7% YoY, and accounted for 25.2% of total Group revenue, up from 18.7% in 1Q25. This reflects continued acceleration in digital adoption and the growing contribution of VEON’s digital ecosystem to overall growth. Growth was driven by expanding usage across key digital verticals, the Uklon and Tabletki acquisitions, and broader integration of digital services within VEON’s customer propositions. Effective 1Q26, revenues from our enterprise identity and credentials management services, now rapidly transitioning to API-led platforms, are reported within the Digital Enterprise vertical. These revenues amounted to USD 44 million in 1Q26 (USD 45 million in 1Q25). Prior-period financials have been reclassified accordingly to ensure comparability. EBITDA for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026: Group EBITDA rose 17.7% YoY to USD 517 million.

While digital margins are structurally lower than traditional telecom services, this reflects their growth and investment characteristics; importantly, their lower capital intensity supports strong free cash flow conversion, resulting in cash generation that is comparable to telecom. Telecom Customers The Group reported 151 million mobile subscribers as of March 31, 2026, with a stable base (-1.3% YoY) reflecting a continued strategic focus on value-accretive, revenue-driven customer growth. The 4G user base grew 4.2% YoY to 106 million, reflecting continued migration to higher-value data services. As of 1Q26, 4G users represented 70.3% of the total subscriber base, up 3.7 percentage points YoY, supporting continued growth in multiplay adoption, which is defined as customers using at least one digital platform alongside 4G voice and data. Multiplay customers increased 7.4% YoY to 45.8 million, representing approximately 34.8% of the total one-month mobile subscriber base as of March 31, 2026. Compared with voice-only users, multiplay customers generate higher ARPU, supported by bundled offerings and deeper engagement across connectivity and digital services, contributing to overall revenue growth and customer value. 1Q26 1Q25 YoY 4Q25 3Q25 2Q25 Telecom Metrics (millions) Mobile customers 150.5 152.4 (1.3%) 150.2 149.5 152.3 Fixed customers 2.03 1.86 8.9% 1.94 1.90 1.87 4G users 105.8 101.5 4.2% 104.2 103.7 103.1 4G subscriber base penetration 70.3% 66.6% 3.7p.p. 69.4% 69.4% 67.7% Multiplay customers 45.8 42.7 7.4% 45.0 43.5 43.3 ARPU (USD) Mobile 2.3 2.0 17.3% 2.3 2.2 2.1 Multiplay 3.6 3.4 7.7% 3.5 3.5 3.4 Voice 0.93 0.91 2.3% 0.92 0.91 0.91 Note: Mobile subscribers refer to users active during the quarter.

Quarter-on-quarter dynamics reflect seasonality, including higher engagement around major sporting tournaments and other events in certain periods. Digital-only customers grew to 72.5 million, and represent users who actively engage with VEON’s digital platforms but are not telecom subscribers on VEON’s mobile networks, underscoring the expanding reach of the ecosystem beyond connectivity. The dual DO1440 and AI1440 strategy is anchored in robust network infrastructure and enabled by localized platforms and AI-enabled, agentic applications, designed to reflect the specific needs and aspirations of the communities VEON serves and to deliver digital experiences that extend well beyond connectivity. Together, these underpin VEON’s verticalized, delayered platform model, translating ecosystem scale into localized growth, embedded intelligence across services, and alignment with national digital priorities. Digital Revenues In 1Q26, VEON’s digital revenues increased 57.7% YoY to USD 303 million, representing 25.2% of total Group revenue. Digital EBITDA reached USD 105 million in the quarter, reflecting continued scaling across digital businesses, improving monetization and operating leverage. On revenue split by markets, Pakistan remained the largest contributor to digital revenues, followed by Ukraine and Kazakhstan, while Bangladesh and Uzbekistan continued to scale rapidly from a smaller base, delivering the strongest YoY growth rates. Digital revenue growth was particularly strong in Ukraine (+256.9% YoY) and Bangladesh (+744% YoY), with Pakistan delivering sustained scale (+32.9% YoY) and Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan also contributing solid growth (+18.2% YoY and +34.5% YoY, respectively).

EARNINGS RELEASE & OPERATING HGHLIGHTS 1Q26 9 Ride-hailing digital revenues (Uklon) amounted to USD 33 million in 1Q26, reflecting expansion across operating markets and increasing contribution from mobility services in Ukraine and Uzbekistan. Our key premium digital brands are ROX in Pakistan, Ryze in Bangladesh, Izi in Kazakhstan, and OQ in Uzbekistan. These platforms generate revenue digital services, including subscriptions, premium content, in-app upgrades, and higher-value digital features. Revenues across these premium brands grew 104% YoY in 1Q26 to USD 26 million, reflecting increased spending by subscribers on premium digital experiences. Enterprise digital revenues grew 2.2% YoY to USD 63 million in 1Q26. These revenues are generated from our enterprise platforms that are transforming from internal enablers into market-facing technology leaders, delivering AI, cloud, and data solutions to corporate and government clients. These include QazCode (in Kazakhstan), Kyivstar.Tech (in Ukraine), Garaj (in Pakistan), Buildx (in Uzbekistan), bCloud (in Bangladesh) and the VEON AdTech business. Effective 1Q26, revenues from our enterprise identity and credentials management services, now rapidly transitioning to API led platforms, are also reported within the Digital Enterprise vertical. These revenues amounted to USD 44 million in 1Q26 (USD 45 million in 1Q25). Prior period financials have been reclassified accordingly to ensure comparability. Healthcare digital revenues reached USD 8 million in 1Q26, with the strong growth reflecting the consolidation of Tabletki.ua effective February 2026 in addition to continued growth from our healthcare platforms like Helsi in Ukraine. This growth is being supported by growing adoption of digital health services. Revenues from our SuperApps (positioned as a one-stop digital hub for all services) and other digital services (learning, e-commerce) stood at USD 1.0 million for 1Q26, +37.3% YoY

Revenues from enterprise identity and credentials management services have been reported within the Digital Enterprise vertical from 1Q26 (USD 44 million) onwards. Prior periods (1Q25 USD 45 million) have been reclassified accordingly. 2. The common share to American Depositary Share (ADS) ratio is 25 common shares to 1 ADS. Total Revenues increased 17.0% YoY in 1Q26, reflecting sustained price monetization across core connectivity services, continued growth through acquisition and expansion of digital platforms and a greater contribution from higher-value customer segments. Growth was supported by an improved product mix, expanding multiplay adoption and resilient demand across key operating markets. EBITDA increased 17.7% YoY in 1Q26, driven by revenue growth, operating leverage, continued scaling across digital businesses and disciplined cost management, partly offset by higher marketing and personnel costs. Telecom and infrastructure EBITDA increased 10.0% YoY to USD 412 million, while digital EBITDA grew 62.6% YoY to USD 105 million, reflecting strong scaling and operating leverage across digital platforms. Depreciation and amortization rose 5.7% YoY in 1Q26, reflecting sustained investment in network capacity, spectrum-related assets, digital platforms and IT infrastructure. Operating profit/EBIT increased 27.8% YoY in 1Q26, driven primarily by higher EBITDA and operating leverage as revenue growth outpaced underlying cost increases. This increase was partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization charges. Net finance costs increased 21.4% YoY in 1Q26, primarily driven by higher gross debt due to increased lease liabilities. This was partly offset by stronger interest income on cash balances, reflecting disciplined liquidity management. Other non-operating (loss)/ gain, net reflects a USD 36m negative movement, primarily due to a one‑off gain recorded in 1Q25 from the reversal of costs associated with the early termination of a spectrum sharing arrangement in Kazakhstan. Income tax expense increased to USD 60 million in 1Q26 from USD 12 million in 1Q25, with the effective tax rate rising


 

EARNINGS RELEASE & OPERATING HGHLIGHTS 1Q26 11 to 32.7% from 9.2%. This was largely driven by the absence of any one-off tax reliefs in 1Q26 (versus 1Q25) Net profit attributable to owners of the parent was up +0.2% YoY to USD 99 million in 1Q26.

Long-term accounts payable relate to arrangements with vendors for financing network equipment. Total cash and cash equivalents and deposits increased in 1Q26 to USD 1,755 million (of which USD 457 million is at HQ) compared to USD 1,734 million (of which USD 557 million is at HQ) at the end of 2025. This increase in cash was primarily a result of higher cash generation from operations which is partially offset by cash utilization in HQ and BU Ukraine. Net dividends up streamed from the Operating Companies was USD 5.7 million (after withholding tax) for 1Q26. Gross debt was broadly stable at USD 4,907 million at the end of 1Q26, compared with USD 4,902 million at the end of 2025. Year on year, gross debt increased by 12% due to higher lease liabilities mainly due to tower sale transaction in Pakistan, while bonds and loans decreased by 4.9% YoY, reflecting continued debt reduction. Net debt increased to USD 3,616 million at the end of 1Q26 compared to USD 3,510 million at the end of 2025 mainly due to higher lease liabilities. Net debt excluding lease liabilities and cash related to banking operations in Pakistan, increased to USD 1,764 million as at the end of 1Q26, compared to USD 1,751 million at the end of 2025, primarily due to a reduction in cash. Net debt excluding leases / EBITDA was 1.07x at the end of 1Q26. The leverage calculations do not include USD 464 million cash deposit (as of March 31, 2026) relating to banking operations in Pakistan. 2026 OUTLOOK, CAPITAL RETURN POLICY VEON is revising up its revenue growth guidance for 2026 to 11–14% YoY in USD terms (versus 9-12% earlier), while maintaining EBITDA growth guidance of 7–10% YoY in USD terms. Capex intensity (excluding Ukraine) for FY26 is now expected in the range of 15–17% (earlier 14-16%) to reflect higher capex in Pakistan to leverage recent spectrum wins to drive stronger data monetization and revenue growth. VEON’s capital intensity outlook excludes Ukraine due to the cyclical and unpredictable nature of Kyivstar’s alternative power requirements amid ongoing instability of the national electricity grid. VEON’s capital allocation framework aims to balance continued investment in growth with attractive shareholder returns. Reflecting the Group’s strong financial position, confidence in sustained cash generation and commitment to long-term value creation, the framework targets a minimum of USD 100 million in annual share repurchases, subject to prevailing market conditions, liquidity considerations and requisite internal approvals. Under the current USD 100 million buyback program launched on November 14, 2025, VEON has repurchased 959.3K ADSs for USD 49.6 million and USD 3 million of the 2027 Notes as of May 11, 2026. Including earlier phases of the program first announced in August 2024, VEON has repurchased 3.1 million ADSs for a total consideration of USD

As of March 31, 2026, after giving effect to ADS issuances in March 2024 and subsequent periods, shares and ADSs held by VEON represent approximately 6.4% of total outstanding shares. Following completion of the current USD 100 million buyback program, VEON intends to implement this framework for future buyback programs, with all shares repurchased under such future programs to be cancelled, supporting disciplined capital management and enhancing long-term shareholder value. VEON also highlights strong alignment between management and shareholders, underpinned by meaningful share ownership and disciplined capital allocation. As of March 27, 2026, members of management collectively held 1.84% of the Company’s share capital in ADSs, reinforcing a clear commitment to long-term value creation. OTHER SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS On April 14, 2026 VEON announced that the Competition Commission of Pakistan approved up to 69.66% of TPL Insurance by VEON’s subsidiary Jazz International Holding Limited (JIH) for ~PKR 4.15 billion (USD 14.6m) from TPL Corp. On April 20, 2026, JIH launched a mandatory tender offer for an additional 6.67% at PKR 30/share. Closing is expected mid-2026. Mobilink Microfinance Bank Limited is progressing its acquisition of Apna Microfinance Bank Limited to scale digital banking and expand financial inclusion in Pakistan, subject to regulatory approvals. The combined purchase will give JIH control over more than 76% of TPL Insurance. TPL Insurance is Pakistan’s premier digital-first insurer, with an AA credit rating by the Pakistan Credit Rating Agency, a general insurer license, and a fully digital operating model built for scale. The company had a gross written premium of PKR 5.7 billion and over 277,000 policies issued as of December 31, 2025. Competition clearance marks next step in building comprehensive digital financial services ecosystem, accelerating digital financial services in Pakistan. Mobilink Microfinance Bank Limited (MMBL) is advancing due diligence and customary processes following its March 2026 announcement to acquire a majority stake and management control of Apna Microfinance Bank Limited. The transaction is intended to accelerate digital banking capabilities and deepen microfinance penetration in Pakistan, further strengthening access to financial services for underserved communities. The proposed acquisition remains subject to regulatory approvals. VEON and MMBL will provide further updates on progress as appropriate. In March 2026, Jazz secured the largest allocation in Pakistan’s mobile spectrum auction, acquiring 190 MHz of spectrum of the total 480MHz sold as the auction increased spectrum available to mobile operators from 274 MHz to 754 MHz, strengthening Pakistan’s digital infrastructure. Jazz secured 50 MHz in the 3500 MHz band, 70 MHz in the 2600 MHz band, 50 MHz in the 2300 MHz band, and 20 MHz in the 700 MHz band, at a total cost of USD 239.5 million, payable in PKR starting in 2027 following a grace period to support network deployment. The additional spectrum secured in this auction will allow Jazz to expand connectivity, enhance network capacity and continue scaling high- quality mobile broadband nationwide while progressively introducing new capabilities that support innovation, enterprise growth and digital inclusion. Banglalink in Bangladesh has become our latest market to launch Starlink direct-to-device connectivity, following the agreement signed in April 2026, Messaging services are targeted for rollout in 2026 and data capabilities are to follow subject to regulatory approvals. In Ukraine, Kyivstar has expanded its collaboration with Starlink with an agreement to resell Starlink broadband internet services and hardware for businesses and public sector institutions; over 5 million customers have already connected to the satellite network via Starlink to Cell, enabling messaging. In Kazakhstan, Beeline has completed successful testing, including the first satellite-enabled WhatsApp call in Central Asia, with commercial messaging services expected to launch in 2026.

Financial Services revenues grew 44.1% YoY, supported by strong expansion across payments, lending, merchant solutions and SME services at JazzCash and by higher digital engagement and rising loan disbursement volumes at Mobilink Microfinance Bank. Jazz’s EBITDA increased 29.4% YoY terms in 1Q26, while the EBITDA margin expanded to 45.0%, up 3.1 percentage points YoY. This reflected disciplined cost management and operating leverage. Jazz continued to execute well on its DO1440 and AI1440 strategy. The mobile subscriber base increased 2.0% YoY to 74.9 million, while mobile ARPU rose 19.4% YoY to PKR 496, reflecting effective pricing actions and continued monetisation of data usage. The 4G user base reached 57.1 million, up 7.2% YoY, with 4G penetration increasing to 76.3%, a rise of 3.7 percentage points YoY. Multiplay customers grew 4.8% YoY and now represent 37.7% of the one- month active subscriber base. These customers generate approximately 3.5 times the ARPU of voice-only users and are a key revenue driver through bundling of voice, data and digital services and improved customer lifecycle management. JazzCash’s users reached approximately 29.2 million (versus 27.0 million in Dec 2025). Strong growth in LTM transaction volumes, up 47.3% YoY, and 1Q26 average number transactions per user, up 35.8% YoY, drove LTM Gross Transaction Value growth of 56% YoY to Rs. 16.8 trillion as of March 2026. JazzCash recently celebrated onboarding its one millionth Raast QR-enabled merchant, marking a major milestone in Pakistan’s journey toward a cashless and digitally inclusive economy.

As part of its commitment to transparency and governance, VEON discloses that its Chief Executive Officer, Kaan Terzioglu, now holds slightly more than 1% of the Company’s total share capital, exceeding the relevant disclosure threshold for insider ownership as was reported earlier in the Company's 2025 Form 20-F.

EARNINGS RELEASE & OPERATING HGHLIGHTS 1Q26 40 ATTACHMENT E: Definitions 4G users are mobile customers who used fourth-generation (4G or LTE) network technologies during the three months prior to the measurement date. ARPU (average revenue per user) measures the monthly average revenue per mobile user. We generally calculate ARPU by dividing our mobile telecommunication and digital revenue generated by our own subscribers during the relevant period by the average number of our mobile customers during the period and the number of months in that period. Telecommunication revenue includes all mobile connectivity-related revenue, exclusive of revenue from device sales. Digital revenue is fully included, except for revenue from fixed services. Capital expenditures (capex) are purchases of property and equipment, new construction, upgrades, software, other long-lived assets and related reasonable costs incurred prior to the intended use of the non-current asset, accounted at the earliest event of advance payment or delivery. Purchases of licenses and capitalized leases are not included in capital expenditure. Capex intensity is a ratio, which is calculated as last-twelve-month (LTM) capex divided by LTM total revenue. Digital customers are gross total cumulative users for the reported period of all digital platforms, services and applications offered by an entity or by the Group and includes users who are active in more than one application. Digital-Only customers represent the total cumulative users across all digital platforms who are not VEON mobile subscribers. This measure includes users who are active in more than one application. Digital revenues includes digital services and platforms, spanning entertainment (gaming, music, and video streaming), financial services (mobile payments, wallets, insurance, lending), e-commerce, ride-hailing, super apps, and all revenues under secondary brands. It also includes enterprise solutions such as AdTech, Enterprise Identity and credentials management services, Big Data, cloud, and IoT, as well as digital offerings in education and health. Digital EBITDA represents the portion of EBITDA generated from VEON’s digital services and platforms. Digital EBITDA is calculated by applying the definition of EBITDA to the results of operations attributable to these digital services and platforms. For Group Digital EBITDA, no HQ costs are allocated or included. HQ costs are excluded in full to reflect the standalone performance of the digital businesses. Doubleplay 4G customers are mobile customers who engaged in usage of our voice and data services over 4G (LTE) technology at any time during the one month prior to such measurement date. EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure and is called Adjusted EBITDA in the 2025 Form 20-F published by VEON. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of the results as reported under IFRS We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as profit/(loss) for the period, before impairment loss, financial expenses and costs, net foreign exchange gain/(loss), share of profit/(loss) of associates and joint ventures, and listing expense, which is also excluded from the calculation. EBITDA margin is calculated as EBITDA (as defined above) divided by total revenue, expressed as a percentage. EBITDAaL is calculated as EBITDA (as defined above) after lease expense. Equity free cash flow is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as free cash flow from operating activities and cash flow from investing activities, including proceeds from (partial) sale of businesses but excluding license payments, banking cash flows, cash outflows related to business acquisitions, inflow/outflow of deposits and financial assets. Cash flows from financing activities like lease payments, debt issuance or re-payments and proceeds from issuance of shares are excluded. Financial services encompass a comprehensive suite of financial solutions delivered through digital platforms. These include cash deposits and withdrawals, retail payments, P2P transfers, utilities and telecom bill payments, debit card, payment gateway, digital lending, insurance, and other financial services.


 

EARNINGS RELEASE & OPERATING HGHLIGHTS 1Q26 41 Gross debt is calculated as the sum of short term and long-term interest-bearing debt and includes bank loans, bonds, lease liabilities, and equipment financing. It excludes spectrum and license related payment obligations and other liabilities that do not have the characteristics of traditional banking debt. Gross merchandise value (GMV) is calculated as total monetary value of goods or services facilitated through the platform over a given period, before deducting commissions, fees, discounts, refunds, or costs. Identified items are amounts impacting revenues and/or EBITDA, which may be recurring in nature but are not operational. Underlying revenues and/or EBITDA exclude such identified items. Local currency (or “LCY”) trends (growth/decline) in revenue and EBITDA are non-IFRS financial measures that reflect changes in Revenue and EBITDA, excluding foreign currency movements (“constant FX”). LCY trends underlying (growth/decline) is an alternative performance measure that is calculated as local currency trends excluding identified items and other factors, such as businesses under liquidation, disposals, mergers and acquisitions with an absolute amount of USD 5 million or more. We present certain financial information in respect of our operating companies in local currency terms. This non-IFRS financial measure is intended to present the results of our operating companies in local currency amounts and thus exclude the impact of translating such local currency amounts to our reporting currency, U.S. dollars, improving the comparability of results between periods. Our management believes that this increase in comparability between periods provides an additional and meaningful assessment of performance for our management and for the investors. Mobile customers (also - mobile subscribers) are generally customers in the registered customer base at a given measurement date who engaged in a mobile revenue generating activity at any time during the three months prior to such measurement date. Such activity includes any outgoing calls, customer fee accruals, debits related to service, outgoing SMS and MMS, data transmission and receipt sessions, but does not include incoming calls, SMS and MMS or abandoned calls. Our total number of mobile customers also includes customers using mobile internet service via USB modems and fixed-mobile convergence (“FMC”). Multiplay customers are Doubleplay 4G customers who also engaged in usage of one or more of our digital products at any time during the one month prior to such measurement date. Effective 1Q25, 4G usage below the 100Mb threshold is included in Multiplay and Double Play 4G user count (excluded prior to 1Q25). Net debt is a non-IFRS financial measure and is calculated as the sum of interest-bearing long-term debt, including capitalized leases (unless specifically excluded) and short-term notional debt minus cash and cash equivalents and deposits, excluding cash and cash deposits from our banking operations in Pakistan, long-term and short- term deposits. We believe that net debt provides useful information to investors because it shows the amount of notional debt that would be outstanding if available cash and cash equivalents and deposits and long-term and short-term deposits were applied to repay such indebtedness. Net debt should not be considered in isolation as an alternative to long-term debt and short-term debt, or any other measure of our financial position. Revenues from telecommunications services and from infrastructure (“Telecom and infrastructure revenues” or “Telecom and infra revenues”) are revenues generated by VEON from providing telecommunication and infrastructure services. Telecommunication services refer to fixed and mobile voice, data, interconnection, roaming, messaging, and value-added services. Infrastructure services refer to leasing or providing third-party access to physical network assets, such as towers, fiber-optic lines and solar energy provider, owned by VEON, allowing external entities to utilize these resources. EBITDA from telecommunications services and from infrastructure (“Telecom and infrastructure EBITDA” or “Telecom and infra EBITDA”) represents the portion of EBITDA generated from VEON’s telecommunications and infrastructure operations. Telecom/Infra EBITDA is calculated by applying the definition of EBITDA to the results of these telecom and infrastructure activities. All HQ costs are fully included in Group Telecom/Infra EBITDA. VEON’s reportable segments are the following, which are principally based on business activities in different geographical areas: Pakistan, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Bangladesh and Uzbekistan. We also present our results of operations for “Others” and “HQ” separately, although these are not reportable segments. “Others” represents our operations in Kyrgyzstan (sold during the third quarter of 2025) and “HQ” represents transactions related to management activities within the group in Dubai.

29 DEFINITIONS 1/2 4G users are mobile customers who used fourth-generation (4G or LTE) network technologies during the three months prior to the measurement date. ARPU (average revenue per user) measures the monthly average revenue per mobile user. We generally calculate ARPU by dividing our mobile telecommunication and digital revenue generated by our own subscribers during the relevant period by the average number of our mobile customers during the period and the number of months in that period. Telecommunication revenue includes all mobile connectivity-related revenue, exclusive of revenue from device sales. Digital revenue is fully included, except for revenue from fixed services. Capital expenditures (capex) are purchases of property and equipment, new construction, upgrades, software, other long-lived assets and related reasonable costs incurred prior to the intended use of the non-current asset, accounted at the earliest event of advance payment or delivery. Purchases of licenses and capitalized leases are not included in capital expenditures. Capex intensity is a ratio, which is calculated as last-twelve-month (LTM) capex divided by LTM total revenue. Digital customers is a gross total cumulative users for the reported period of all digital platforms, services and applications offered by an entity or by the Group and includes users who are active in more than one application. Digital-Only customers represent the total cumulative users across all digital platforms who are not VEON mobile subscribers. This measure includes users who are active in more than one application. Digital revenues includes digital services and platforms, spanning entertainment (gaming, music, and video streaming), financial services (mobile payments, wallets, insurance, lending), e- commerce, ride-hailing, super apps, and all revenues under secondary brands. It also includes enterprise solutions such as AdTech, Identity and credentials management services, Big Data, cloud, and IoT, as well as digital offerings in education and health. Digital EBITDA represents the portion of EBITDA generated from VEON’s digital services and platforms. Digital EBITDA is calculated by applying the definition of EBITDA to the results of operations attributable to these digital services and platforms. For Group Digital EBITDA, no HQ costs are allocated or included. HQ costs are excluded in full to reflect the standalone performance of the digital businesses. Doubleplay 4G customers are mobile customers who engaged in usage of our voice and data services over 4G (LTE) technology at any time during the one month prior to such measurement date. EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure and is called Adjusted EBITDA in the 2024 Form 20-F published by VEON. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of the results as reported under IFRS We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as profit/(loss) for the period, before impairment loss, financial expenses and costs, net foreign exchange gain/(loss), share of profit/(loss) of associates and joint ventures, and listing expense, which is also excluded from the calculation. EBITDA margin is calculated as EBITDA (as defined above) divided by total revenue, expressed as a percentage. EBITDAaL is calculated as EBITDA (as defined above) after lease expense. Equity free cash flow is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as free cash flow from operating activities and cash flow from investing activities, including proceeds from (partial) sale of businesses but excluding license payments, banking cash flows, cash outflows related to business acquisitions, inflow/outflow of deposits and financial assets. Cash flows from financing activities like lease payments, debt issuances or re-payments and proceeds from issuance of shares are excluded. Financial services encompass a comprehensive suite of financial solutions delivered through digital platforms. These include cash deposits and withdrawals, retail payments, P2P transfers, utilities and telecom bill payments, debit card, payment gateway, digital lending, insurance, and other financial services. Gross debt is calculated as the sum of long-term notional debt and short-term notional debt, including capitalized leases. Gross merchandise value (GMV) is calculated as total monetary value of goods or services facilitated through the platform over a given period, before deducting commissions, fees, discounts, refunds, or costs. Identified items are amounts impacting revenues and/or EBITDA, which may be recurring in nature but are not operational. Underlying revenues and/or EBITDA exclude such identified items. Local currency (or “LCY”) trends (growth/decline) in revenue and EBITDA are non-IFRS financial measures that reflect changes in Revenue and EBITDA, excluding foreign currency movements (“constant FX”). LCY trends underlying (growth/decline) is an alternative performance measure that is calculated as local currency trends excluding identified items and other factors, such as businesses under liquidation, disposals, mergers and acquisitions with an absolute amount of USD 5 million or more. We present certain financial information in respect of our operating companies in local currency terms. This non-IFRS financial measure is intended to present the results of our operating companies in local currency amounts and thus exclude the impact of translating such local currency amounts to our reporting currency, U.S. dollars, improving the comparability of results between periods. Our management believes that this increase in comparability between periods provides an additional and meaningful assessment of performance to our management and to the investors.


 

30 DEFINITIONS 2/2 Mobile customers (also - mobile subscribers) are generally customers in the registered customer base at a given measurement date who engaged in a mobile revenue generating activity at any time during the three months prior to such measurement date. Such activity includes any outgoing calls, customer fee accruals, debits related to service, outgoing SMS and MMS, data transmission and receipt sessions, but does not include incoming calls, SMS and MMS or abandoned calls. Our total number of mobile customers also includes customers using mobile internet service via USB modems and fixed-mobile convergence (“FMC”). Multiplay customers are Doubleplay 4G customers who also engaged in usage of one or more of our digital products at any time during the one month prior to such measurement date. Effective 1Q25, 4G usage below the 100Mb threshold is included in Multiplay and Double Play 4G user count (excluded prior to 1Q25). Net debt is a non-IFRS financial measure and is calculated as the sum of interest-bearing long-term debt, including capitalized leases (unless specifically excluded) and short-term notional debt minus cash and cash equivalents and deposits, excluding cash and cash deposits from our banking operations in Pakistan, long-term and short-term deposits. We believe that net debt provides useful information to investors because it shows the amount of notional debt that would be outstanding if available cash and cash equivalents and deposits and long-term and short-term deposits were applied to repay such indebtedness. Net debt should not be considered in isolation as an alternative to long-term debt and short-term debt, or any other measure of our financial position. Revenues from telecommunications services and from infrastructure (“Telecom and infrastructure revenues” or “Telecom and infra revenues”) are revenues generated by VEON from providing telecommunication and infrastructure services. Telecommunication services refer to fixed and mobile voice, data, interconnection, roaming, messaging, and value-added services. Infrastructure services refer to leasing or providing third-party access to physical network assets, such as towers and fiber-optic lines, owned by VEON, allowing external entities to utilize these resources. EBITDA from telecommunications services and from infrastructure (“Telecom and infrastructure EBITDA” or “Telecom and infra EBITDA”) represents the portion of EBITDA generated from VEON’s telecommunications and infrastructure operations. Telecom/Infra EBITDA is calculated by applying the definition of EBITDA to the results of these telecom and infrastructure activities. All HQ costs are fully included in Group Telecom/Infra EBITDA. VEON’s reportable segments are the following, which are principally based on business activities in different geographical areas: Pakistan, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Bangladesh and Uzbekistan.
