In 2025, VEON will continue to execute to this strategy, driving growth and innovation across our markets. “ Kaan Terzioğlu commented on the results: “

Net financial expenses in 4Q24 decreased by 0.5% YoY mainly due to debt reduction. On a yearly basis, financial expenses declined by 5.1% in 2024 due to lower level of bank loans and bonds and associated interest expense, partially offset by higher interest expense on lease liabilities. Income tax expense decreased by 13.6% YoY to USD 55 million in 4Q24; this decrease was mainly driven by recognition of a deferred tax asset in Bangladesh. On a yearly basis, income tax expense rose by 20.9% as a result of higher profits and higher local taxes in our operating markets. The Group recorded full year net profit of USD 487 million.

Trading update FY24 & 4Q24 13 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL STRUCTURE Note: Cash and cash equivalents and deposits includes amounts relating to banking operations in Pakistan: USD 243 million in 4Q24, USD 144 million in 3Q24 and USD159 million in 4Q23. Long-term accounts payable relate to arrangements with vendors for financing network equipment. Total cash and cash equivalents and deposits increased in Q4 2024 to approximately USD 1,691 million compared to Q3 2024 USD 1,021 million. This increase was driven by USD 300 million of new debt at the level of Pakistan, which was still held on bank accounts and deposits at reporting date, as well as USD 181 million of USD denominated short-term Ukrainian sovereign bonds which were turned to cash and cash equivalents during the quarter. The HQ-level cash and cash equivalents and deposits are held in bank accounts, money market funds and on-demand deposits at a diversified group of international banks. During the twelve months of 2024, operating companies up-streamed USD 496 million in dividends (after withholding tax). In addition to the USD 1,691 million in cash and cash equivalents and deposits, VEON also holds of USD 30 million of USD denominated domestic Ukrainian sovereign bonds with tenor 3-6 months (classified as investments) as of December 31, 2024. Net dividends up streamed from OpCos year-to-date: USD 496 million (after withholding tax). All remaining proceeds from the sale of TNS+ were received after December 2024. Gross debt increased to USD 4.4 billion in Q4 2024, compared to USD 4 billion in Q3 2024. The increase in gross debt was driven mainly as a result of new debt in Pakistan (USD 300 million) and Kazakhstan (USD 40 million) and a small increase in the lease liabilities (USD 19 million). Lease liabilities increased marginally to USD 1,033 million at the end of 4Q24 compared to USD 1,014 million in 3Q24 Net debt decreased to USD 2.9 billion at the end of 4Q24 (USD 3.1 billion at the end of 3Q24) and Net debt excluding leases decreased to USD 1.9 billion (USD 2.1 billion at the end of 3Q24) as the above-mentioned increase in cash exceeded the increase in gross debt. This resulted in lower net debt/EBITDA of 1.74x and 1.34x (if leases were to be excluded). Our leverage calculations and ratios do not take the US$243m relating to banking operations in Pakistan into account. We continually monitor the capital markets and our capital structure, and we expect that in the future we will undertake debt capital markets offerings or other financing transactions if market conditions become favorable.

As part of its commitment to Ukraine’s recovery and reconstruction, Kyivstar continues to meet the country’s critical connectivity needs, expand digital capabilities, and futureproof its network through its OpenRAN partnership. In 4Q24, revenues increased by 31.5% YoY (19.1% YoY adjusted for the cyberattack in underlying local currency) driven by 34.5% ARPU growth. This strong performance was fueled by inflationary price adjustments, stable 4G users, and increased adoption of Kyivstar’s data and digital services, leading to greater mobile data consumption. On a yearly basis direct digital revenues grew 122.3% YoY and driven by Kyivstar TV and Helsi. EBITDA grew 36.9% YoY in local currency in 4Q24, supporting a 55.6% EBITDA margin for the quarter (+2.2 p.p. YoY). This was primarily driven by higher mobile data revenues and disciplined cost control measures, despite rising network and operational costs, including higher electricity & fuel expenses. Aligned with VEON’s DO1440 strategy, Kyivstar continues to provide essential digital healthcare, information, and entertainment services, reinforcing its role as a key enabler of Ukraine’s digital transformation. During the quarter, Kyivstar’s 4G user base declined modestly to 14.5 million (-2.8% YoY) and now represents 62.8% of the total customer base (+0.7 p.p. YoY). The decline in 4G users, driven by an overall decrease in mobile customers and increased roamers, was more than offset by a 19.9% YoY increase in data usage per user, supported by new customer value propositions that enhanced user engagement. Kyivstar’s multiplay services saw strong adoption, with customer numbers rising 50.2% YoY, highlighting growing demand for bundled digital offerings. Helsi Ukraine, the country's largest digital healthcare platform, continued its rapid growth in the fourth quarter. As of 4Q24, Helsi had 28 million registered patients (+5% YoY), 1,600 active healthcare institutions (+3% YoY), and 39,000 medical specialists on the platform (+5% YoY). Mobile app downloads reached 9.2 million, with 2.4 million appointments booked (+8% YoY). Kyivstar TV’s MAUs grew 54.8% YoY, driven by rising demand for premium content. New features like content downloading, multi-profile access, and personalized recommendations further enhanced user engagement. Capex increased by 65.3% YoY, with LTM capex intensity reaching 27.4% (+8.5 p.p. YoY) as Kyivstar continues to make significant investments in network resilience and 4G expansion. To maintain service continuity during blackouts caused by attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, Kyivstar deployed over 2,600 generators and 176,000 four- hour duration batteries at base stations as of 4Q24. Kyivstar maintained nearly 100% operational uptime of its radio network across all territories controlled by Ukraine at the end of December 2024. 4Q24 was a landmark quarter for Kyivstar. In November 2024, restrictions on VEON’s corporate rights in Kyivstar were lifted. In December 2024, Kyivstar partnered with Starlink, a division of SpaceX, to bring direct-to-cell satellite connectivity to Ukraine. Kyivstar has signed an agreement to acquire Uklon, a leading Ukrainian ride-hailing and delivery platform. This strategic acquisition marks Kyivstar’s expansion into a new area of digital consumer services in line with VEON’s digital operator strategy. VEON has announced that it has signed a business combination agreement with Cohen Circle Acquisition Corp. I, a special purpose acquisition company, that will result in the listing of Kyivstar on the Nasdaq Stock Market in the United States. The completion of the transaction is expected to make Kyivstar the first pure-play Ukrainian investment opportunity to be publicly listed in the U.S., another major milestone for Kyivstar.

The exceptional performance of JazzCash and MMBL, coupled with the continued growth of a diverse portfolio of digital products and services, significantly contributed to this success. Furthermore, Jazz maintained its position as Pakistan's leading mobile operator. In 4Q2024, total revenues increased by 16.6% YoY in local currency terms due to robust digital revenue growth. Telecom and Infrastructure revenues grew by 7.6% YoY in 4Q24, driven by a 15.3% increase in 4G users and a 15.0% rise in mobile ARPU, which highlights the strength of Jazz’s network and innovative services. Direct digital revenues saw a 53.1% YoY growth in 4Q24, thanks to another outstanding quarter for our Pakistan Fintech offerings. Specifically, revenues for JazzCash surged by 115.5% YoY, while Mobilink Microfinance Bank (MMBL) experienced a 32.2% YoY increase in revenues for the quarter. Direct digital revenues comprised 26.1% of total revenues in 4Q24. Jazz’s EBITDA margin reflects the combination of higher telecommunications margins coupled with strong, but comparatively lower digital margins. Additionally, the costs of investing in the development of a diverse range of new digital offerings are also impacting EBITDA margins. While EBITDA growth for 4Q24 was 2.5% YoY, growth for the full year was at 15.6%. Jazz continues to execute strongly to its DO1440 strategy. Its 4G user base reached 50.6 million at the end of the quarter, reflecting a 15.3% YoY increase, with 4G penetration climbing to 70.7% (+8.6 p.p.). Jazz’s total mobile subscriber base grew to 71.5 million (+1.3% YoY). Multiplay customer base rose 24.6% YoY in 4Q24 and accounted for 35.4% of the total consumer base. Multiplay users generate 3.2x the ARPU of voice-only users, thus this segment remains a key revenue driver for Jazz. JazzCash's MAUs grew to approximately 19.7 million, supporting the issuance of approximately 143,000 digital loans to its customers on a daily basis. The Gross Transaction Value reached PKR 2.8 trillion in the fourth quarter of 2024, reflecting a 63.3% YoY increase. This growth was supported by a 44.2% YoY rise in total transactions and a 17.2% YoY increase in transactions per user. This success was further bolstered by the continued expansion of its retail distribution network, which now includes nearly 350,000+ active merchants, and a healthy growth of its agent base to almost 122,000 active agents. Tamasha, Pakistan’s largest home-grown streaming platform, had 17.1 million MAUs. It established itself as the go-to platform for cricket by streaming cricket 250+ days through the year including major tournaments such as ICC World Cup and Pakistan Super League, and various bi-lateral series. We also transcended beyond cricket by streaming English Premier League and the Paris Olympics. SIMOSA, Jazz’s Sim-Care and Lifestyle app, recorded a 30% YoY increase in MAU to 19.0 million by the end of 4Q24. Another highlight for the quarter was FikrFree, an AI-powered digital marketplace for insurance and healthcare in Pakistan, which is fast gaining momentum with over 1.4 million registered users and 790k policies sold since its launch in October. Garaj, Jazz’s cloud platform, now has 500+ enterprise customers as it grew its business 74%+ in 2024. Capex amounted to PKR 53.9 billion in 2024, reflecting a YoY increase of 46.2%. The capex intensity stood at 14.0%, marking a YoY change of 2.2 percentage points. This investment underscores Jazz's ongoing efforts to expand and upgrade its 4G network and invest in digital products. Additionally, the strategic partnership with Engro Corporation Limited for the pooling and management of Jazz’s infrastructure assets marks a significant milestone in the Group’s asset-light strategy aimed at bolstering Jazz's service focused businesses in line with VEON’s digital operator model. Jazz is committed to continuous innovation and leading Pakistan’s development as a digitally inclusive and empowered nation. PAKISTAN

A key highlight of the year was the progress on the asset-light strategy, exemplified by the divestment of TNS+. Following the sale of TNS+, its contributions are no longer included in Beeline Kazakhstan’s accounts effective 4Q24. While total revenues for 4Q24 declined -0.3%YoY, the increase is 10.7% YoY when adjusted for TNS+’ contributions in 4Q24. Excluding TNS+ contributions, telecom and infrastructure revenues grew 15.3% YoY, reflecting a 5.2% YoY increase in mobile subscribers and 2.0% YoY growth in mobile ARPU. Beeline’s growing market share and traction is testament to the success of its 4.9G rollout, which has adequately offset the decision to forego 5G license/spectrum. Direct digital revenues grew 12.0% in the quarter, comprising 11.3% of total revenues and reflecting the robust uptake of Beeline’s digital services suite. 4Q24 EBITDA decreased by 6.5% YoY but was stable (-1.1% YoY) when adjusted for TNS+’ contributions in 4Q24. Total subscribers grew 5.2% YoY to 11.6million in 4Q24. The 4G user base in Kazakhstan rose 9.1% YoY in 4Q24 to 8.8 million and now represents 76.0% of the total customer base. Multiplay customers reached 4.2 million, up 4.4% YoY in 4Q24, and contributed 49.7% to total service revenues in 4Q24. Beeline Kazakhstan continued to expand its digital portfolio in line with the DO1440 strategy. The BeeTV multiplatform entertainment service reached ~1 million MAUs (+8% YoY), with 69% of customers using the mobile version of the service. Simply, Kazakhstan’s first domestic mobile-only online neobank continues to scale strongly with 145.2% rise in MAUs, which reached 3.2 million. Beeline Kazakhstan’s sub-brand IZI continued to deliver strong growth with MAUs of the IZI app increasing 56.9% YoY to nearly 680,000. IZI is also expanding regionally and has recently launched in Kyrgyzstan. QazCode has been at the forefront of developing cutting- edge digital products. In December 2024, QazCode, in collaboration with Kazakh research institutions, launched Kaz-LLM, an open-source Kazakh-language large language model with 8 billion and 70 billion parameter versions. Beeline and QazCode have already launched several AI products developed in-house, including the open-source LLM Kaz-RoBERTA-conversational model, which is currently being used for customer service interactions on Beeline Kazakhstan’s digital platforms. Capex for 2024 increased by 12.9% YoY, with LTM capex intensity reaching 21.4% (-0.05x p.p. YoY). Beeline Kazakhstan is prioritizing its capex budget towards the deployment of MIMO (massive multiple-input multiple- output) technology and 4.9G wireless technology roll-outs. KAZAKHSTAN

In response to these challenges, Banglalink strategically pivoted by optimizing its operations and accelerating its digital transformation. Looking ahead, Banglalink is cautiously optimistic that the worst of the macroeconomic impact is in the past and the company is well-positioned to drive sustainable long-term growth. In 4Q24, Banglalink's total revenues declined by 11.6% YoY in local currency terms. Telecom and Infrastructure revenues fell by 11.0% YoY, impacted by a decrease in the subscriber base (- 11.3% YoY) and a drop in mobile ARPU by 3.4% YoY. Digital revenues saw a -79.7% YoY decline, mainly due to seasonality around cricket content and its impact on Toffee's viewership, specifically the comparable quarter last year benefited from the ICC tournament being held over that period. Total EBITDA decreased by 30.2% YoY in 4Q24, primarily due to lower revenue and a one-off VAT provision. In response, Banglalink has strategically pivoted to optimize its distribution model and customer acquisition strategy, which is beginning to structurally lower costs without affecting revenue share. Despite the challenges faced in the second half of 2024, Banglalink remains committed to its Digital Operator 1440 including a strategic focus on increasing 4G penetration. As of the fourth quarter, its 4G user base stood at 18.0 million, reflecting a -10.4% YoY decline in 4Q24, which mirrors the overall subscriber base decline. This translates to a 4G penetration rate of 50.2%, marking a 0.5p.p YoY increase. The multiplay customer base declined by 7.2% YoY, while multiplay revenues declined by 9.8% YoY and now comprise 32.0% of the revenue base. Banglalink’s Toffee is the leading entertainment application and OTT platform in Bangladesh, offering audio and video streaming services to users of all mobile operators in the country. By the end of 4Q24, Toffee had 6.6 million MAUs and recorded over 700 million minutes of usage. Toffee has reinstated linear TV channels by partnering directly with international broadcasters, making it the largest OTT platform in Bangladesh to offer linear TV. Additionally, Banglalink holds exclusive streaming rights for ICC world events across Bangladesh until the end of 2025. This initiative is expected to continue driving Toffee’s growth into 2025. The successful launch of the AI-enabled lifestyle application 'Ryze' in November 2024, targeting the youth segment, is yet another example of an innovative digital service driving digital adoption and growth. Market reception has been very positive, with Ryze recording 222,000+ MAUs by December 2024, just a month after its launch. Additionally, transaction volumes on MyBanglalink ('MyBL'), a pioneering telecommunications super app, maintaining stable MAUs at 7.8 million. Capex in 2024 was BDT 7.9 billion (-29.9% YoY); with capex intensity for 2024 at 13.2%. Banglalink’s nationwide 4G footprint provides a solid foundation for future growth. BANGLADESH

For 2025 and beyond, Beeline Uzbekistan aims to leverage these efforts to drive sustainable growth. Beeline Uzbekistan welcomes the government of Uzbekistan’s decision to abolish the 10% excise tax on mobile communication services effective January 2025 – this will enable Beeline Uzbekistan to accelerate its 4.9G roll-out, benefiting both the industry and consumers in Uzbekistan. In 4Q24, total revenues declined by 2.7% YoY in local currency terms. Telecom and infrastructure revenues declined 3.5% YoY for 4Q24, primarily due to the team’s temporary focus on a higher value customer retention strategy. Nevertheless, 2024 was a year of significant new site and network investments aimed at promoting network quality, which Beeline Uzbekistan expects to positively leverage into subscriber and revenue growth for future periods. Direct digital revenues grew by 15.3% in 4Q24 YoY, reflecting the rapid adoption of Beeline’s digital services suite. 4Q24 EBITDA declined 14.5% YoY and was down 3.7% for the full year. This decline partly reflects the investments in new digital verticals like AdTech which are expected to open new revenue opportunities moving forward, as well as higher network investments. Beeline Uzbekistan stood at 8.3 million mobile customers at the end of the quarter, a slight decline of 0.8% YoY, as the team focuses on maintaining mobile ARPU and retaining more valuable customers. The 4G user base reached 6.1 million users, a 0.2% YoY decrease, and now comprises 73.6% of total mobile customers (+0.5 p.p. YoY). The multiplay customer base increased 1.0% YoY in 4Q24 to 3.6 million subscribers, accounting for 46.1% of the monthly active customer base during 4Q24. Beeline is taking rapid strides on its DO1440 strategy. The growing adoption and the introduction of enhancements to its portfolio of digital products and services drove a 23.5% YoY increase of Digital MAUs to 9.4 million for 4Q24. In 4Q24, the mobile financial services platform Beepul scaled rapidly, as its customer base grew 3.6x YoY to over 2.4 million MAUs. The platform also saw growing engagement with customers, with the average value per transaction increasing by 49.7% YoY, and its rating reaching 4.8 out of 5 on the Google Play Store. Beeline Uzbekistan’s second brand OQ reached nearly 600,000 MAUs at the end of 4Q24 – a 3.4x YoY growth and was rated #1 in the “Business” category in Uzbekistan on the App Store and Google Play. The quarter saw the launch of a new SuperApp, Hambi ("Hammasi Bitta" in Uzbek, meaning "all-in- one"), providing Beeline customers with a seamless experience that integrates marketplace, fintech, health, and self-care services. Additionally, Kinom, an all-access TV platform incorporating video on demand and linear TV, was launched. Both are off to strong starts, with Hambi attracting 5.1 million MAUs as of December including 3.8milion mobile app users and was ranked as the top app on Google Play in the country. Kinom had ~390,000 MAUs as of December 2024. Capex for 2024 increased by 110.9% YoY, with LTM capex intensity reaching 43.8% (+21.1 p.p. YoY). In 2024, Beeline Uzbekistan accelerated its 4G network rollout to enhance coverage and quality across the country and expects this to drive sound growth prospects into the future. UZBEKISTAN

Trading update FY24 & 4Q24 32 ATTACHMENT E: DEFINITIONS 4G users are mobile customers who have engaged in revenue-generating activity during the three months prior to the measurement date as a result of activities over fourth-generation (4G or LTE – long term evolution) network technologies. ARPU (average revenue per user) measures the monthly average revenue per mobile user. We generally calculate mobile ARPU by dividing our mobile service revenue during the relevant period (including data revenue, roaming revenue, MFS and interconnect revenue, but excluding revenue from connection fees, sales of handsets and accessories and other non-service revenue) by the average number of our mobile customers during the period and the number of months in that period. 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-months (LTM) capex divided by LTM total revenue. Direct digital revenues include revenues from VEON’s proprietary digital platforms and services. Discontinued operations under IFRS refers to a component of an entity, representing a major line of business or a geographic area of operations, that has either been disposed of or is classified as held for sale. As presented in the document, the results of discontinued operations that are presented separately, either in the current and/or prior year income statements, have no impact on balance sheet amounts of the prior periods. This means Russian operations contribute to the base performance of VEON for prior year shown. 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 2023 Form 20-F published by VEON. 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) before tax from continuing operations, before depreciation, amortization, loss from disposal of non-current assets and impairment loss, financial expenses and costs, net foreign exchange gain/(loss) and share of profit /(loss) of associates and joint ventures. EBITDA margin is calculated as EBITDA (as defined above) divided by total revenue, expressed as a percentage. Equity free cash flow is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as free cash flow from operating activities less cash flow used in investing activities, excluding license payments, principal amount of lease payments, balance movements in Pakistan banking, M&A transactions, inflow/outflow of deposits, financial assets and other one-off items. Gross debt is calculated as the sum of long-term notional debt and short-term notional debt, including capitalized leases. Identified items are amounts impacting revenues and/or EBITDA, that 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. 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”).


 
Trading update FY24 & 4Q24 33 Mobile data customers (also – mobile data subscribers) are mobile customers who have engaged in revenue- generating activity during the three months prior to the measurement date as a result of activities including USB modem Internet access using 2.5G/3G/4G/HSPA+ technologies. Mobile financial services (“MFS”) or digital financial services (“DFS”) are a variety of innovative services, such as mobile commerce, which uses a mobile phone as the primary payment user interface and allows mobile customers to conduct money transfers to pay for items such as goods at an online store, utility payments, fines and state fees, loan repayments, domestic and international remittances, mobile insurance and tickets for air and rail travel, all via their mobile phone. 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. 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. Net Promoter Score (“NPS”) is the methodology VEON uses to measure customer satisfaction. Relative NPS (rNPS) – advantage or gap in NPS when compared to competition. 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 data, voice, connectivity, television, and similar services, regardless of medium of transmission, including transmission by satellite. 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. Total digital monthly active users (“MAU”) is a gross total cumulative MAU of all digital platforms, services and applications offered by an entity or by the Group and includes MAU who are active in more than one application. 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 and “HQ” represents transactions related to management activities within the group in Amsterdam, London and Dubai.

48 FY24 & 4Q24 trading update |48 DEFINITIONS 4G users are mobile customers who have engaged in revenue-generating activity during the three months prior to the measurement date as a result of activities over fourth-generation (4G or LTE – long term evolution) network technologies. Average revenue per user (“ARPU”) measures the monthly average revenue per mobile user. We generally calculate mobile ARPU by dividing our mobile service revenue during the relevant period (including data revenue, roaming revenue, MFS and interconnect revenue, but excluding revenue from connection fees, sales of handsets and accessories and other non-service revenue), by the average number of our mobile customers during the period and the number of months in that period. Capital expenditures (“capex”) are purchases of property and equipment, new construction, upgrades, software, other long-lived assets and related reasonable costs incurred prior to intended use of the non-current asset, accounted at the earliest event of advance payment or delivery. Purchase of licenses and capitalised leases are not included in capital expenditures. Capex intensity is a ratio, which is calculated as last-twelve-months (LTM) capex divided by LTM total revenue. Digital only MAU users of VEON digital services and platforms who are not VEON mobile customers . Direct digital revenues include revenues from VEON’s proprietary digital platforms and services. Discontinued operations under IFRS refers to a component of an entity, representing a major line of business or a geographic area of operations, that has either been disposed of or is classified as held for sale. As presented in the document, the results of discontinued operations that are presented separately either in the current and/or prior year income statements, have no impact on balance sheet amounts of the prior periods. This means that neither the Algerian nor Russian operations contribute to the base performance of VEON for both the current and prior year shown. Doubleplay 4G customers are mobile CC 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 Form 20-F published by VEON. VEON calculates Adjusted EBITDA as (loss)/profit before interest, tax, depreciation, amortization, impairment, gain/loss on disposals of non-current assets, other non-operating gains/losses and share of profit/loss of joint ventures and associates. Our Adjusted EBITDA may be helpful in evaluating our performance against other telecommunications companies that provide EBITDA. Additionally, a limitation of EBITDA’s use as a performance measure is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalised tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenue or the need to replace capital equipment over time. EBITDA margin is calculated as EBITDA divided by total revenue, expressed as a percentage. Equity free cash flow is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as free cash flow from operating activities less cash flow used in investing activities excluding license payments, principal amount of lease payments, balance movements in Pakistan banking, M&A transactions, inflow/outflow of deposits, financial assets and other identified items. Gross debt is calculated as the sum of long-term notional debt and short-term notional debt including capitalised leases. Identified items are amounts impacting revenues and/or EBITDA, that 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”) and other factors, such as businesses under liquidation, disposals, mergers and acquisitions, including the classification of Russia as discontinued operations. Local currency (or “LCY”) trends underlying (growth/decline) iis an alternative performance measure that is calculated as local currency trends excluding identified items with an absolute amount of USD 5 million or more. Mobile customers 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”). Mobile data customers are mobile customers who have engaged in revenue-generating activity during the three months prior to the measurement date as a result of activities including USB modem Internet access using 2.5G/3G/4G/HSPA+ technologies. Mobile financial services (“MFS”) or digital financial services (“DFS”) is a variety of innovative services, such as mobile commerce that uses a mobile phone as the primary payment user interface and allows mobile customers to conduct money transfers to pay for items such as goods at an online store, utility payments, fines and state fees, loan repayments, domestic and international remittances, mobile insurance and tickets for air and rail travel, all via their mobile phone. 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. Net debt is a non-IFRS financial measure and is calculated as the sum of interest-bearing long-term debt including capitalised leases and short-term notional debt minus cash and cash equivalents 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 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. Net Promoter Score (“NPS”) is the methodology VEON uses to measure customer satisfaction. Relational NPS (rNPS) – advantage or gap in NPS compared to competition. 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 data, voice, connectivity, television, and similar services, regardless of medium of transmission, including transmission by satellite. 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. Total digital monthly active users (“MAU”) is a gross total cumulative MAU of all digital platforms, services and applications offered by an entity or by VEON Group and includes MAU who are active in more than one application.. VEON’s reportable segments are the following, which are principally based on business activities in different geographical areas: Pakistan, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Bangladesh. We also present our results of operations for “Others” and “HQ” separately, although these are not reportable segments. “Others” represents our operations in Kyrgyzstan and Georgia (which now contributes only to first six months of 2022 results) and “HQ” represents transactions related to management activities within the group in Amsterdam, London and Dubai. The comparative information for the Group is restated following the sale of Russian operations announced on 24 November 2022, in line with the requirements of IFRS 5
