    Notes 1. Because the Company prepares Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, changes in the key management indicators for the filing company are not described.

  2. Diluted earnings per share is not presented, as the effects of dilutive share on earnings per share are anti-dilutive for the first half of the previous fiscal year and the current fiscal year.

  3. The above indicators are based on the Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).

  4. Fractions of one million yen are rounded to the nearest million.

  5. The Company has introduced an Executive Reward BIP Trust and Stock-granting ESOP Trust, and the Company shares held by these trusts are recorded as treasury shares in the Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, the Company shares held by these trusts are included in the treasury shares to be deducted from the average number of shares during the period for the calculation of basic income (loss) per share and diluted earnings per share.

‌2. Business content

There were no significant changes in the businesses that the Group (the Company and its subsidiaries) is engaged in this Semi-Annual accounting period (January 1, to June 30, 2025, hereinafter referred as “first half”).

The Group changed the classification of reportable segments from this first half of the current fiscal year. For details, please refer to “Section 4. Accounting Status, 1. Condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, Notes to the Condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, 6. Segment Information.”

‌Section 2. Business situations

  1. ‌Risk of business

    During the first half of the current fiscal year, there were no significant changes to the risk environment or to the business risks that were described in the Annual Securities Report for the previous fiscal year.

    The company continues to monitor our operational environment for new risks and opportunities and will proactively work to mitigate risks and leverage opportunities.

  2. ‌Management's analysis of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows

    Note that matters related to future developments that are mentioned in this section are judgments of the Group that were made as of the date of Semi-Annual report submission.

      (65,892)

      Note “Business income” is a measure of our recurring business performance. “Business income” deducts cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses from revenue, and includes other income and expenses which we believe are recurring in nature.

      Sales volume in the first half decreased 1% compared to the same period in the prior year, reflecting the negative impact on demand from price revisions implemented in the previous fiscal year and the cycling effect of the full renewal of Ayataka in the same period of the prior year. However, these factors were offset by efforts to strengthen core categories, expand sales space, and implement effective marketing activities, resulting in a growth rate that exceeded the overall market.

      Consolidated revenue was 417,942 million yen (an increase of 6,488 million yen or 1.6% from the same period in the prior year). Wholesale revenue per case improved as a result of price revisions, resulting in higher revenue than in the same period of the prior year.

      Consolidated business income was 1,535 million yen (an increase of 4,326 million yen). Top-line growth and cost savings through transformation contributed to improved profitability, and business income improved while investing at an appropriate level to strengthen the foundation.

      Consolidated operating loss was 92,170 million yen, with loss expanding by 93,376 million yen from the same period in the prior year (1,207 million yen income in the same period in the prior year). Although business income increased compared with the same

      period in the prior year, this was due to the recording of a non-cash impairment loss in the second quarter (April 1 to June 30) as a result of the revaluation of fixed assets in the vending business to achieve optimal capital allocation in the future. Additionally, Other income (non-recurring) for the first half includes a gain on the sales and disposals of property, plant, and equipment of 815 million yen recognized during the process of optimizing the balance sheet. Other expenses (non-recurring) included an impairment loss of 88,939 million yen mainly due to the impairment in the vending business mentioned above, 3,234 million yen in special retirement allowances related to the voluntary employee retirement program, and 2,108 million yen in business structure improvement costs related to the implementation of fundamental transformation initiatives.

      Net loss attributable to owners of the parent increased by 65,595 million yen (loss increased) with operating loss expanding from the same period in the prior year, it was a loss of 65,892 million yen (297 million yen loss in the same period in the prior year).

      The financial results by segment are as follows.

      The reportable segment classification has been changed from this first half. Accordingly, the comparison and analysis with the first half of the previous year are presented based on the new classification.

      1. Vending Business

        Revenue was 189,660 million yen (a decrease of 2,548 million yen or 1.3% from the same period in the prior year). Segment loss improved by 140 million yen from the same period in the prior year (loss decreased), resulting in a loss of 1,389 million yen.

      2. OTC Business

        Revenue was 194,174 million yen (an increase of 7,805 million yen or 4.2% from the same period in the prior year). Segment income was 21,004 million yen (an increase of 2,999 million yen or 16.7% from the same period in the prior year).

      3. Food Service Business

      Revenue was 19,833 million yen (an increase of 766 million yen or 4.0% from the same period in the prior year). Segment income was 2,850 million yen (an increase of 612 million yen or 27.3% from the same period in the prior year).

      As announced in “Announcement of New Strategic Business Plan: Vision 2030” dated August 1, 2025, we have upwardly revised our current Strategic Business Plan, “Vision 2028,” and decided to launch “Vision 2030” with the aim of further increasing shareholder value. We will incorporate new elements such as a long-term growth plan developed jointly with Coca-Cola (Japan) Company, Limited, operating the business centered on multiple business units with clear accountability, restructuring of the profit base in the vending business and operating it with a mindset as the world's largest retailer, and the largest shareholder return in our history. We set forth ambitious targets by 2030 such as, business income of approximately 80 billion yen, approximately double the highest level ever recorded, and ROIC (Return on Invested Capital) of 10%, which is approximately double the WACC (Weighted Average Cost of Capital).

    2. ‌Qualitative Information on Consolidated Financial Position

      Assets were 697,499 million yen, a decrease of 106,654 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This is mainly due to a decrease in “Property, plant, and equipment.”

      Liabilities were 317,985 million yen, a decrease of 19,725 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This is mainly due to the decrease in “Lease liabilities.”

      Equity was 379,514 million yen, a decrease of 86,928 million yen. This is mainly due to a decrease in “Retained earnings” and repurchase of treasury shares.

    3. ‌Qualitative Information on Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

      Net cash used for operating activities was 1,694 million yen (10,380 million yen used for operating activities in the same previous period). This is mainly due to “Increase in inventories” while “Increase in trade and other payables” was recorded.

      Net cash used for investing activities was 16,474 million yen (4,103 million yen used for investing activities in the same previous period). This is mainly due to “Payments for acquisitions of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets”.

      Net cash used for financing activities was 25,123 million yen (5,141 million yen used for financing activities in the same previous period). This is mainly due to “Dividends paid,” and “Payments for purchases of treasury shares.”

      As a result of these activities, cash, and cash equivalents at the end of the first half were 45,169 million yen, a decrease of 43,304 million yen compared to the end of the same previous period.

    4. ‌Accounting Estimates and the assumptions used in those estimates

      In the “Management's analysis of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows” section of the Annual Securities Report for the previous consolidated fiscal year, the group disclosed the significant accounting policies and the assumptions used in those estimates. However, the group revised the useful lives of right-of-use assets during the first half of the current fiscal year.

      For details, please refer to “Section 4 Accounting status, 1. Condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, Notes to condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, 4. Critical accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions.

    5. ‌Business and financial challenges to be addressed

      1. Issues to be addressed

        There were no significant changes in the issues to be addressed by the Group during the first half of the current fiscal year.

      2. Basic Policies on the Control of the Joint-stock Company

        1. Descriptions of basic policies

          The Company believes that the persons and/or entities (hereinafter referred as “Persons”) who control decisions on the Company’s financial and business policies need to understand the source of the Company’s corporate value and will make it possible to ensure and enhance the Company’s corporate value and, in turn, the common interests of its shareholders continually and persistently. The Company believes that a decision on any proposed acquisition that would involve a change of corporate control of the Company should ultimately be made based on the intent of its shareholders as a whole. Also, the Company would not reject a large-scale acquisition of shares in the Company if it would contribute to the corporate value of the Company and, in turn, the common interests of its shareholders.

          However, there are some forms of large-scale acquisition of shares that benefit neither the corporate value of the target company nor the common interests of its shareholders: those with a purpose that would obviously harm the corporate value of the target company and, in turn, the common interests of its shareholders; those with the potential to substantially coerce shareholders into selling their shares; those that do not provide sufficient time or information for the target company’s board of directors and shareholders to consider the terms of the large-scale acquisition of shares, or for the target company’s board of directors to present a business plan or an alternative proposal; and those that require the target company to discuss or negotiate with the acquirer in order to procure more favorable terms for shareholders than those presented by the acquirer.

          The Company believes that the Persons who control decisions on the Company’s financial and business policies need to be Persons who (i) fully understand the importance of providing freshness and refreshment to people around the world and embedding the Coca-Cola brand, which is now a part of our life style, in local communities; (ii) strive aggressively to win in the market as the customers’ preferred partner with a deep understanding of the Company’s corporate philosophy; (iii) appreciate employees who have a strong sense of responsibility to thoroughly pursue customer satisfaction, and proactively work on building a workplace environment that can make each and every employee feel rewarded, motivated and proud of being a member of the Coca-Cola family; and (iv) contribute to local communities and proactively address environmental issues with a strong sense of responsibility as a corporate citizen that continues to strive to assist in the realization of an affluent society, preserve relationships of mutual trust with customers, business partners, shareholders and employees and perform to their expectations, and make it possible to continually and persistently ensure and enhance the Company’s corporate value and, in turn, the common interests of its shareholders from a mid- to long-term perspective.

          Therefore, the Company believes that Persons who would make a large-scale acquisition of the shares in the Company in a manner that does not contribute to the corporate value of the Company, and, in turn, the common interests of its shareholders would be

          inappropriate to become Persons who would control decisions on the Company’s financial and business policies. We must secure the Company’s corporate value and, in turn, the common interests of its shareholders by taking necessary and reasonable countermeasures against a large-scale acquisition of the Company’s shares by such Persons.

        2. Initiatives to realize the basic policies

          1. Summary of special initiatives that contribute to realizing the basic policies

            The Group not only assumes a leading role in transforming the Coca-Cola business in Japan by deploying various joint initiatives such as product development and test marketing with The Coca-Cola Company and Coca-Cola (Japan) Company, Limited (100% subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Company) as a strategic partner, but also strives to become a company trusted by the stakeholder groups of consumers, customers, shareholders, and employees.

            Soft drink industry volume growth in Japan is expected to be muted, given the developed nature of the market as a whole. The business environment surrounding the Company is projected to become even more intense with further acceleration of the industry’s restructuring for survival, such as the expansion of business tie-ups between beverage manufacturers.

            Under such circumstances, the Group aims to become the preferred partner of our customers and consumers in all drinking occasions by establishing a robust and sustainable operating model, pursuing success in high-priority areas, and drastically transforming the business to ensure growth.

            The Company also made a transition to a company with an Audit and Supervisory Committee in order to further reinforce the governance system. The Audit and Supervisory Committee serves as the auditing body of the Company that is comprised exclusively of external directors, including multiple independent external directors. To strengthen the management oversight function, these external directors that serve as members of the Audit and Supervisory Committee have each been granted voting rights in Board of Director meetings, in addition to the right to state their opinions in shareholders’ meetings on matters pertaining to the designation of board members and their remuneration, among others. In order to separate the decision-making, business management and business execution functions, the Company is implementing a corporate executive officer system. In addition to the above, for more productive discussions on highly important matters in the Board of Directors meetings, the Company is delegating the authority to make decisions on certain important matters that require prompt business executions to specific directors as well as facilitating speedy decision making of other matters.

          2. Outline of measures to prevent inappropriate persons from controlling the finance and business policy decisions of the Company in light of the basic policy

          Upon any substantial acquisition of the Company shares, the Company strives to proactively collect and promptly disclose information in order to ensure and improve the corporate value of the Company and the common interest of shareholders as well as make appropriate measures as needed under the scope permitted by laws and regulations and the Articles of Incorporation.

          When a Board Meeting determines it necessary to reapply anti-takeover measures in order to ensure and improve the corporate value of the Company and the common interest of shareholders, taking into consideration of the future trends in society, the Company consults with shareholders at the Meeting of Shareholders as stipulated in the Articles of Incorporation for decision of the implementation.

        3. Decisions of the Board of Directors of the Company on the specific measures and the reasons

      The measures described b. (a) were introduced as specific measures to continuously and sustainably improve the corporate value of the Company and the common interest of shareholders and is consistent with the Company’s basic policy.

      In addition, the measures described in b. (b) were introduced as specific measures to ensure and improve the corporate value of the Company and the common interest of shareholders as needed under the scope permitted by laws and regulations and the Articles of Incorporation focusing on the intention of shareholders, and it is not intended to undermine the shareholders’ common interests and preserve the positions of the Company officers.

      ‌Notes to condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements

      1. ‌Introduction

        Coca-Cola Bottlers Japan Holdings Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “the Company”) is a holding company located in Japan and listed on the Prime Market of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. Under the Coca-Cola brand, the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Group”) engage in the purchasing, sales, production, bottling, packaging, distribution and marketing of carbonated beverages, coffee beverages, tea-based beverages, mineral water, alcohol, and other soft drinks in Japan.

        The Group’s condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements consist of equities of the Company, subsidiaries, affiliated companies and jointly controlled enterprises. The condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements were approved by our Representative Director & President, Calin Dragan and our Representative Director, Vice President, and Chief Financial Officer (Head of Finance), Bjorn Ivar Ulgenes on August 4, 2025 and take into account events after the reporting period to that date (see Note 15, “Subsequent events”).

      2. ‌Basis of preparation

        As the Group qualifies as a “Specified Company under Designated International Accounting Standards” as defined in Article 1-2, Item 2 of the Regulation on Terminology, Forms, and Preparation Methods of Consolidated Financial Statements (Ordinance of the Ministry of Finance No. 28 of 1976), the condensed consolidated semi-annual financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting,” pursuant to the provisions of Article 312 of the said Regulation.

        Condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements should be used in conjunction with consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year as they do not include all the information required in the annual consolidated financial statements.

        Condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements are stated in Japanese yen. All condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements are rounded to the nearest million yen unless otherwise stated.

      3. ‌Material accounting policies

        The material accounting policies applied by the Group in the condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements are the same as the accounting policies applied in the consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year.

        Income tax benefit for the first half of the current fiscal year has been calculated based on the Annual estimated effective tax rate.

      4. ‌Critical accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

        In preparing the condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with IFRS, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Group’s accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and the assumptions underlying the estimates are continually reviewed and are based on historical experience and other factors, including future events, which are believed to be reasonable under the environment.

        Accounting estimates are based on the most appropriate information at the time the consolidated financial statements are filed, but if any estimates in further into the future changes, the impact of the revises is recognized in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and consolidated statements of comprehensive income subsequent to the reporting period in which they are revised.

        Accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions that have a significant impact on the condensed Semi-Annual Consolidated Financial Statements will be revised based on the same concept as in the consolidated financial statements for the previous consolidated fiscal year.

        ‌(Changes in Accounting Estimates)

        (The Change in useful life of right-of-use assets)

        The group had been depreciating right-of-use assets related to sales bases, etc. by using the straight-line method, generally over 15 years from the commencement date. However, in line with our initiatives to build a flexible and responsive supply chain, we are working on consolidating existing sales bases, shifting away from long-term contracts for sales bases due to customer service approaches diversification, and putting Integrated Distribution Centers (IDC) into operation from the fiscal year ending December 2025 to strengthen our logistics network. For those reasons, the useful life (lease period) has been revised from the current fiscal year.

        As the result of this change, compared with those based on the previous useful life, the right-of-use assets have decreased by 9,689 million yen and the lease liabilities have decreased by 9,655 million yen at the end of the first half of the current fiscal year. Also, loss for the period before income taxes has increased by 35 million yen.

      5. ‌New accounting standard not yet adopted

        As of the approval date of the Consolidated Financial Statements, the following standard was newly issued but the Group has decided not to adopt it early. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard.

      6. ‌Segment Information

        1. Overview of reportable segments

          Operating segments are defined as the components of the Group for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in making resource allocation decisions and in assessing performance. The group is organized and managed based on its major products, services, or business activities, and has established three business and reportable segments: "Vending Business," "OTC (Over the Counter) Business," and "Food Service Business." There are no business segments that are not included in the reportable segments, nor are there any aggregated segments.

          The accounting methods used for operating segment reported are the same as those described in Note 3 “Materials accounting policies.”

          Reportable Segments Major products, services or business activities

          Procurement, manufacturing and sales, bottling, packaging, distribution,

          Vending business

          OTC Business

          Food Service Business

          marketing as well as other operations related to vending machines of beverages in Japan's vending channel

          Procurement, manufacturing and sales, bottling, packaging, distribution, and marketing of beverages in Japan's OTC (Over the Counter) channels such as supermarkets, drugstores, discount stores, convenience stores and online channels

          Procurement, manufacturing and sales, bottling, packaging, distribution, and marketing of beverages in Japan's restaurants and food service channels

          Change in reportable segments, etc.

          As stated in “Section 2. Business situations 2. Management's analysis of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows

          1. Status of Business Performance”, the Group formulated a new mid-term business plan, “Vision 2030,” which was announced on August 1, 2025. While the Group had previously operated as a single segment, the “Beverage Business,” it has now established an operational structure aligned with the characteristics of each business unit to facilitate the execution and achievement of the objectives of “Vision 2030.” Furthermore, with the establishment of a management reporting structure by business unit, the reportable segments have been changed, effective from the current semi-annual consolidated fiscal period, to the “Vending Business,” “OTC Business,” and “Food Service Business.”

            Accordingly, the segment information for the previous semi-annual consolidated accounting period has been prepared based on the revised reportable segment classification.

          2. Information about reportable segments

            Information by reportable segments of the group are as follows. Segment income is based on business income before the allocation of corporate overhead expenses.

Corporate overhead expenses mainly consist of general and administrative expenses not allocated to any reportable segments.

  2. Segment income (loss) is based on business income (loss). “Business income (loss)” deducts cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses from revenue, and includes other income and expenses which we believe are recurring in nature.

    In each business, the Group purchases, manufactures, and sells carbonated beverages such as Coca-Cola, coffee beverages, black tea beverages, mineral water, alcohol, and other beverages in Japan. Revenue for sales of these products is recognized primarily at the time of delivery as customers have obtained control over the products, and the performance obligation is satisfied.

    Payments relating to such performance obligation are received generally within two months of delivery. The contracts with customers do not include any material financial elements.

    Revenue in the semi-annual consolidated accounting period for both the previous fiscal year and the current fiscal year are recognized from the contracts with customers.

  6. ‌Fair value of financial instruments

  1. Classification by level of the fair value hierarchy

    Financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis after initial recognition are classified into three levels of the fair value hierarchy, depending on the observability and significance of the inputs used in the measurement.

    The fair value hierarchy is defined as follows:

    Level 1: Fair value (unadjusted) in the active market of the same asset or liability

    Level 2: Fair value based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, either directly observable inputs or indirectly, of observable inputs for asset or liability

    Level 3: Fair value based on unobservable inputs for asset or liability

    When more than one input is used to measure the fair value, the level of the fair value hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized as having occurred at the beginning of each period.

    There was no transfer between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 during the previous fiscal year and the first half of the current fiscal year.

  2. Fair value measurement

Securities are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy by the measurement of share prices, if any, in an active market for the same asset or liability. If there is no active market share price for the same asset or liability, the Group uses valuation techniques such as share prices in non-active markets, and quoted market prices of similar companies. If significant inputs, such as quoted market prices and discount rates used in measurement are observable, such financial instruments are classified as Level 2, but are classified as Level 3 if inputs used in its measurement include significant unobservable inputs.

Unlisted securities are classified into Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy using valuation techniques based on quoted market prices of similar companies, valuation techniques based on net asset value, and other valuation techniques. In the fair value measurement of unlisted securities, the Group uses unobservable inputs such as valuation multiples and considers certain illiquidity discounts and non-controlling interest discounts as needed. The measurement methods for such fair value are determined by the Finance division in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies.

The valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in Level 3 fair value measurement are as follows:

As of December 31, 2024

Type Valuation technique Significant unobservable inputs Interactions between significant unobservable

inputs and fair value measurement

Financial instrument measured at fair value through other comprehensive income

(Securities)

Comparison of similar companies

EBIT Multiple: 10.7 times PBR: 1.0-2.3 times

Estimated fair value increases (decreases) when equity indices of comparable listed companies of the target are high (low)

As of June 30,2025

Type Valuation technique Significant unobservable inputs Interactions between significant unobservable

inputs and fair value measurement

Financial instrument measured at fair value through other comprehensive income

(Securities)

EBIT Multiple: Corporate Value/EBIT PBR: Price Book Value Ratio

Comparison of similar companies

EBIT Multiple: 13.3-14.5 times PBR: 1.0 - 2.5 times

Estimated fair value increases (decreases) when equity indices of comparable listed companies of the target are high (low)
