Third-quarter 2024 revenue

Edenred reports a sustained revenue growth in the third- quarter

With double-digit top line growth in the third quarter, Edenred's diversified growth modelis proving its worth, despite the worsening economic environment:

• For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Group's total revenue stood at €2,076 million, up 15.9%1 like-for-like (up 14.1%1 as reported) versus the same period in 2023

Edenred continues to make the most of its structural growth drivers and the advantagesof its digital B2B2C platform model

• Further growth in underpenetrated core markets, notably the SME segment2, by capitalizing on the relevance of its offering and leveraging its commercial strength
• Successful expansion of its offering beyond meal vouchers in Benefits & Engagement and beyond multi-energy cards in Mobility to target a broader, non-regulated, addressable market, in line with its Beyond22-25 strategy
• External growth as an additional lever to consolidate its leading position, by integrating strong synergies and development potential into its portfolio businesses offering

Update on Italy and implications on 2025 outlook

• On October 23rd, 2024, an amendment calling for the introduction of a 5% cap on meal vouchers' fees paid by merchants for private sector has been submitted as part of a Competitiveness Bill in Italy.
• Edenred considers that the introduction of such a cap would run counter to the principles of freedom to set prices set out in Italian and European commercial law. Edenred therefore plans to challenge the amendment in front of the Italian administrative Court and the European Commission. The Italian Association of Issuers of Meal Vouchers (ANSEB) and Edenred also plan to challenge the amendment in front of the Italian Antitrust Authority.
• Should the amendment be adopted, as it stands, the impact on the Group's EBITDA would be around 60 million euros in 20256 and 120 million euros on an annual basis.
• Should the risk of a 5% cap on meal voucher commissions paid by merchants in Italy be confirmed, Edenred remains confident in its ability to continue to generate profitable and sustainable growth in 2025 and beyond, and is committed to generating organic EBITDA growth of at least 10% in 20256
• If the Italian risk does not prove, Edenred reaffirms its ambition to achieve organic growth of at least 12% in 2025, as presented in its Beyond22-25 plan.

***

Bertrand Dumazy, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Edenred, said: " In a less favorable economic climate, Edenred has once again delivered double-digitorganic progression in revenues. This solid performance illustrates the effectiveness of our diversified growth model. The slight slowdown in growth in some European countries, such as France, Germany and Central Europe, was partly offset by accelerating growth in Brazil and a sustained performance in Italy and Mexico. Our core businesses - meal vouchers and multi-energycards - grew by more than 10%, while our Beyond Food employee benefits and Beyond Fuel mobility solutions recorded increases of over 15%, demonstrating the relevance of our expanded portfolio. In addition to our structural growth drivers, the integration of our latest acquisitions will enable us to benefit from additional growth levers. We are therefore confident in our prospects for the end of the year: we are confirming our EBITDA guidance. Despite the deterioration of the economic environment and the uncertainty of regulatory evolution in Italy, we will continue togenerate profitable and sustainable growth in 2025 and beyond."

• Total revenue

For the third quarter of 2024, total revenue came to €682 million, up 11.5%7 on a like-for-like basis versus third-quarter 2023. Total revenue was up 6.1%7 as reported. This year-on-year increase includes an unfavorable -6.2% currency effect, mainly due to Latin American currencies, and a positive +0.9% scope effect.

For the first nine months of the year, total revenue came to €2,076 million, up 15.9%7 like-for-like and up 14.1%7 as reported compared with the same period in 2023. Reported growth includes an unfavorable currency effect (-4.5%) and a positive scope effect (+2.7%).

• Operating revenue

Operating revenue increased by 10.8%7 like-for-like to €619 million in the third quarter of 2024. As reported, operating revenue rose by 6.0%7 versus third-quarter 2023. The currency effect was a negative 5.8% and the scope effect was a positive 1.0%.

In the third quarter, Edenred enjoyed strong growth momentum in its two main business lines (Benefits & Engagement and Mobility) despite a worsening economic environment, particularly in Europe. This strong performance reflects Edenred's ability to grow in its core markets (meal vouchers and multi-energy cards), which are still largely underpenetrated, while continuing to optimize its go-to-market strategy, which has enabled it to sign over 100,000 new contracts with SMEs since the beginning of the year. Meal voucher and multi-energy card solutions recorded organic growth of over 10% in the third quarter.

This growth is also the result of the successful expansion of Edenred's offering to target ever broader addressable markets. The Beyond Food and Beyond Fuel solutions therefore grew at a rate of over 15% in the third quarter.

Operating revenue for the first nine months of 2024 was up by 13.8%8 like-for-like and by 12.5%8 as reported compared with the same period in 2023, including a positive scope effect (+2.9%), mainly linked to the acquisition of Reward Gateway in May 2023, and a negative currency effect, including the depreciation of the Argentine peso (-4.2%).

At Group level, Argentina accounts for around 1% of total revenue. However, the country's hyperinflationary environment has provided additional growth at Group level in recent quarters. Argentina's contribution to the Group's organic growth was 2.4% over the first nine months of the year, but should only represent around 1%9 of the Group's organic growth for full- year 2024, given the negative contribution expected in the fourth quarter.

Operating revenue for the Benefits & Engagement business line, which accounts for 64% of the Group's total operating revenue, (meal vouchers alone account for around 43% of the Group's operating revenue), was €398 million in third-quarter 2024, a 11.7%8 increase on a like-for-like basis (up 8.6%8 as reported) versus third-quarter 2023.

This growth is being driven by a strong commercial momentum, thanks to the penetration in markets that remain largely untapped, whether through Edenred's internal sales forces or

thanks to the success of the distribution partnerships that Edenred has set up in recent years, with, for example, Itaú Unibanco in Brazil or Crédit Mutuel-CIC in France.

Benefits & Engagement's performance is also driven by the success of the Beyond Food offering, such as employee engagement, commuter mobility and cultural solutions which contribute to cross-selling, with tangible results. The number of customers using at least two of Edenred's Benefits & Engagement solutions has risen by over 15% in one year.

The success of Edenred's solutions is also illustrated by the continuous improvement in user engagement, primarily as a result of the Group's investment in innovation in order to offer new functionalities. In third-quarter 2024, the number of monthly active users increased by 60% across all applications available in the Group's host countries, compared with the third quarter of 2023.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, operating revenue for Benefits & Engagement came to €1,219 million, up 14.2%10 like-for-like (up 16.8%10 as reported) compared with the same period in 2023.

In Mobility, which represents 25% of the Group's total operating revenue, third-quarter 2024 operating revenue amounted to €152 million, up 13.2% like-for-like (up 3.4% as reported) versus third-quarter 2023.

This performance reflects the strong commercial momentum of the multi-energy card offering, particularly in Southern Europe and Mexico, as well as the continued rollout of the Beyond Fuel strategy. Edenred's maintenance platform for fleet managers is proving highly successful in Latin America, as is the electronic toll badges offering in Europe as well as in Latin America, thanks in particular to the partnership with Nubank in Brazil.

In the first nine months of the year, operating revenue for the Mobility business line came to €463 million, up 18.4% like-for-like (up 7.8% as reported) compared with the same period in 2023.

The Complementary Solutions business line, which includes Corporate Payment Services, Incentive & Rewards and Public Social Programs, generated revenue of €69 million in third- quarter 2024, accounting for 11% of the Group total. This figure was up 0.9% like-for-like (down 2.1% as reported) compared with the third quarter of 2023.

In third-quarter 2024, Edenred continued to benefit from the success of its innovative offerings, such as the C3Pay super-app in the United Arab Emirates whose appeal is a result of its value- added services (such as money transfer and insurance for loss of employment). Complementary Solutions' performance was nevertheless penalized by the discontinuation of the CESU social services offer in France, the reduction of some social-public programs in Central Europe and by the slowdown in the Edenred Pay North America business. This is due to its strong exposure to the traditional media vertical, despite good sales performances in other sectors.

In the first nine months of the year, operating revenue for Complementary Solutions came to €208 million, up 2.2% like-for-like (up 0.5% as reported) compared with the same period in 2023.

In Europe, operating revenue totaled €367 million in the third quarter, an increase of 6.7% like- for-like and 7.3% as reported versus third-quarter 2023. Europe represented 59% of total consolidated operating revenue in third-quarter 2024.

For the first nine months of 2024, operating revenue for the region came to €1,141 million, up 9.4% like-for-like (up 12.0% as reported) compared with the same period in 2023.

In France, operating revenue amounted to €79 million for the third quarter, up 4.4% like- for-like (up 2.2% as reported). This increase is the result of double-digit growth in Benefits

• Engagement solutions, despite the uncertain political climate which has slowed decision-making by some prospects, especially in the SMEs segment. Continuous innovation in Benefits & Engagement solutions is helping to enhance the user experience, ensuring growing success among new clients, both large corporate accounts and SMEs. Mobility solutions also continue to enjoy strong demand, thanks to its unparalleled range of energy cards providing access to a unique network of service stations across the country. France's performance was nevertheless affected by the decline in Complementary Solutions' performance, in particular following the discontinuation of the CESU social services solution in France.
  Operating revenue for France in the first nine months of the year amounted to €256 million, up 6.6% like-for-like (up 4.0% as reported) compared with the first nine months of 2023.

Operating revenue in Europe excluding France totaled €288 million in third-quarter 2024, up 7.4% like-for-like versus the prior-year period (8.8% as reported). Benefits & Engagement solutions are enjoying growing success in Southern Europe, in particular in

Italy, while a slowdown is being observed in Northern and Central Europe due to a worsening economic context. This unfavorable environment has also affected Mobility solutions, particularly in Germany, despite an enhanced offering with Spirii's SaaS electric vehicle recharging platform, acquired in April and now available to Edenred customers in Europe.

Operating revenue in Europe excluding France in the first nine months of the year totaled €885 million, up 10.2% like-for-like (up 14.5% as reported) compared with the first nine months of 2023.

Operating revenue in Latin Americaamounted to €189 million for the third quarter, up 16.7%12 like-for-like (up 3.5%12 as reported) compared with the third quarter of 2023. Latin America represented 31% of total consolidated operating revenue in third-quarter 2024.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 operating revenue came to €562 million, an increase of 20.2%12 like-for-like (up 10.3%12 as reported).

In Brazil, operating revenue is back on a double-digit growth, with an increase of 11.5%12 like-for-like in third-quarter 2024 versus third-quarter 2023. Benefits & Engagement recorded double-digit growth thanks to the continued penetration of the SME segment, supported notably by the growing contribution of the partnership with Itaú Unibanco. The completion in August of the acquisition of RB, a best-in-class platform in employee transport benefits, strengthens Edenred's Benefits & Engagement portfolio in the country. The Mobility business line was buoyed by strong performances from energy card and Beyond Fuel solutions in toll and maintenance management services.

For the first nine months of the year, operating revenue in Brazil grew by 9.7%12 like-for- like.

In Hispanic Latin America, operating revenue was up 28.1% like-for-like in third-quarter 2024 versus the same period in 2023. This strong performance is the fruit of very good momentum in Benefits & Engagement and Mobility in Mexico, with both business lines generating double-digit growth. Argentina's contribution was lower than in previous quarters, due to a slowdown in inflation.

For the first nine months of the year, operating revenue in Hispanic Latin America rose by 43.3% like-for-like.

In the Rest of the World, operating revenue came to €63 million for the third quarter, a rise of 16.4% like-for-like (up 6.2% as reported), representing 10% of the consolidated total. This performance was driven by growth in the United Arab Emirates.

For the first nine months of 2024, operating revenue for the region came to €187 million, up 22,3% like-for-like (23,4% as reported) compared with the same period in 2023.

• Other revenue

Other revenue amounted to €63 million in third-quarter 2024, representing an increase of 18.0% like-for-like (up 7.2% as reported). This good performance was due to the impact of growth on

the Group's float13, offsetting the negative impact of rate cuts in most of the regions where the Group operates, particularly in Brazil and the euro zone.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, other revenue came to €187 million, up 41.1% like-for-like (up 33.0% as reported).

OUTLOOK

• 2024 outlook

In a weak economic climate, particularly in Europe, Edenred's diversified growth model

continues to prove its worth, primarily due to the successful rollout of its Beyond strategic plan. The attractiveness of Edenred's Benefits & Engagement and Mobility solutions continue to be a powerful growth driver, particularly thanks to the enhanced Beyond Food and Beyond Fuel offerings.

Edenred is therefore confident in its outlook for the end of the year, and has tightened its EBITDA forecast for full-year 2024 to between €1,245 and €1,285 million14 (compared with a range of between €1,230 and €1,300 million announced on July 23, 2024). The confirmation of its targets includes the positive effect of a higher than initially expected contribution from other revenue, now expected to be between €240 and €250 million for full-year 2024, offset by the negative impact of deteriorating exchange rates, particularly in Brazil and Mexico. Edenred also confirms its commitment to cash generation with a free-cash-flow/EBITDA conversion rate of over 70%15.

• Update on Italy

Edenred takes note of recent developments on a potential evolution of the meal voucher scheme in Italy, whose importance for companies and employees was recently underlined by the Senate, given their positive impact on the local economy.

On October 23, 2024, an amendment calling for the introduction of a 5% cap on meal vouchers' fees paid by merchants for private sector has been submitted as part of a Competitiveness Bill in Italy. This proposed amendment aims to rebalance fees between merchants and employers in the Italian market.

Edenred considers that the introduction of such a cap would run counter to the principles of freedom to set prices set out in Italian and European commercial law. Edenred therefore plans to challenge the amendment in front of the Italian administrative Court and the European Commission. The Italian Association of Issuers of Meal Vouchers (ANSEB) and Edenred also plan to challenge the amendment in front of the Italian Antitrust Authority (AGCM).

As the meal voucher market is largely under-penetrated in Italy, particularly in the SME segment, it remains an attractive one for Edenred, in which the Group plans to continue to

expand. In addition, Edenred Italy's diversification strategy has enabled it to extend its offer beyond meal vouchers. Through the acquisitions of Easy Welfare in 2019 and IP's energy card business, scheduled for completion in the first quarter of 2025, Edenred Italy now has a balanced portfolio of solutions in which meal vouchers will no longer represent more than 68% of operating sales16 (compared with 85% in 2018).

• 2025 outlook

Should the amendement aiming a 5% cap on meal voucher commissions paid by merchants for private sector be adopted as it stands, the impact on the Group's EBITDA would be around 60 million euros in 202517 and 120 million euros on a full-year basis.

Should this risk materialize, Edenred would committ to generate organic EBITDA growth of over 10% in 2025.

In the absence of regulatory changes in Italy, Edenred reaffirms its ambition to achieve organic growth of at least 12% in 2025, as presented in its Beyond22-25 plan.

In an uncertain economic context, Edenred is confident that, in 2025, it will be able to continue generating profitable and sustainable growth by relying on the resilience of its platform model,

the continued roll out of its Beyond strategy, the integration of the acquisitions it has made over the last 18 months and its operating leverage.

On December 3, Edenred organizes an Investor update for the investor and analyst

community, to present the progress of the Beyond plan and how this plan has shaped Edenred's future and has strengthened its sustainable and profitable growth profile.
