The net income of the Company is subject to the legal requirement that 5% thereof be transferred to a legal reserve until such reserve equals 20% of common stock at nominal value. This reserve may not be distributed to shareholders during the existence of the Company, except as a stock dividend. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, this reserve amounted to Ps. 596 and accordingly, has reached 20% of the capital stock. Retained earnings and other reserves distributed as dividends, as well as the effects derived from capital reductions, are subject to income tax at the rate in effect at the date of distribution, except when capital reductions come from restated shareholder contributions (Cuenta de Capital de Aportación “CUCA”) and when the distributions of dividends come from net taxable income, denominated Cuenta de Utilidad Fiscal Neta (“CUFIN”). Dividends paid in excess of CUFIN are subject to income tax at a grossed-up rate based on the current statutory rate. Since 2003, this tax may be credited against the income tax of the year in which the dividends are paid, and in the following two years against the income tax and estimated tax payments. The sum of the individual CUFIN balances of FEMSA and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2024 amounted to Ps. 383,998. Under Mexican income tax law, dividends distributed to its stockholders who are individuals and foreign residents are subject to a 10% withholding tax, which will be paid in Mexico. The foregoing will not be applicable when distributed dividends arise from the accumulated CUFIN balances as of December 31, 2013.

23.2 Capital management The Company manages its capital to ensure that its subsidiaries will be able to continue as going concerns while maximizing the return to shareholders through the optimization of its debt and equity balance to obtain the lowest cost of capital available. The Company manages its capital structure and adjusts it in light of changes in economic conditions. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements, other than the legal reserve (see Note 23.1) and debt covenants (see Note 19). The Company's Finance, Planning and the Corporate Practices Committees review the capital structure of the Company on a quarterly basis. As part of this review, the committee considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. In conjunction with this objective, the Company seeks to maintain the highest credit rating both national and international, currently rated as of December 31, 2024 AAA and BBB+ respectively, which requires it to have a debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) ratio lower than 2. As a result, before entering new business ventures, acquisitions or divestitures, management evaluates the optimal ratio of debt to EBITDA to maintain its credit rating.
