1In FY25 Consumer reassessed the treatment of EE One and more specifically the standalone selling price of each good and service provided to the customer under the converged offering, and as such the allocation of the total transaction price to be received under the contract to each distinct product. This resulted in a reclassification of revenues between product types increasing broadband revenue by £37m in H1 FY25 and reducing postpaid mobile revenue by £37m in H1 FY25

2Includes the impact of our strategic decision to run down the lower-ARPU Plusnet Mobile base in H1 FY24

3Comparative figure for H2 FY24 has been restated to include contract types which were previously omitted

1In FY25 Ethernet revenue was restated to include only Ethernet rental revenue, with connection revenue reclassified under Other revenue.

2In FY25 refreshed premises database identified a further c.450k which now have Superfast speeds

3In FY25 the broadband base was restated to remove 40k lines identified in a base cleanse where the physical line had been ceased but the Broadband element was still being counted in our Broadband lines: 16k ADSL and 24k VDSL

4Excludes interest, tax and other corporate-level adjustments.

5Openreach reported capital expenditure excluding spectrum is allocated to Openreach driver programmes and is not representative of Class of Work asset expenditure as defined under BT's Cumulo business rates assessment.

6H1 FY25 restated to move £18m of capex from Other to FTTP reflecting a programme reclassification

7FY24 and FY25 Openreach Internal revenue has been re-presented for certain Openreach pass-through services previously reported as external revenue in Business that have been reclassified to Openreach reflecting the underlying trading relationship. Year on year trend has been removed from FY24 as the FY23 comparator has not been re-presented.

Please see the Glossary pages for relevant definitions Openreach page 2 of 2

Glossary

FY25 KPI's

Re-presented

We have re-presented certain H1 FY25 comparatives to reflect changes in the Group's internal reporting structure. The International CFU was separated from Business forming a new CFU, effective from 1 July 2025.

In addition, two re-presentations have been made to segmental revenue reporting, consistent with the information now provided to the Executive Committee, which is the key management committee and represents the 'chief operating decision maker' (CODM):

Certain Openreach pass-through services previously reported as external revenue in Business have been reclassified to Openreach to reflect the customer relationship. As a result of this change the prior year comparatives have been re-presented to present revenue on a consistent basis resulting in a £46m reduction in Business segment revenue for the half year to 30 September 2024, with no impact on Openreach segmental revenue due to the intra-group nature of the transaction.

Following an update to the commercial terms governing a trading relationship between EE and BT Wholesale, BT Wholesale will now recognise services provided to EE as part of this trading relationship as intersegment revenue. Previously, these services were internally reported as cost recovery. This change results in the recognition of revenue within the Business segment. As a result of this change the prior year comparatives have been re-presented to present revenue and cost for the segment on a consistent basis. The effect of this change is to increase Business

revenue by £42m, with a corresponding increase in cost.

GROUP: INCOME STATEMENT

Revenue

Service Revenue

Service revenue comprises all revenue less equipment revenue. Some revenue from equipment is included within adjusted service revenue where this is sold as part of a managed services contract or where that equipment cannot be practicably separated from the underlying service.

UK Service Revenue

UK Service revenue comprises all revenue less equipment revenue.
