MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis is based on, and should be read in conjunction with, our unaudited interim condensed
consolidated financial statements as of and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and the related notes
attached hereto. References to “Kyivstar Group” as well as references to “our company,” “the company,” “our group,” “the

including in tables, may not be exact arithmetic aggregations of the figures that precede or follow them.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This document contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the

“potential,” “continue,” “contemplate,” “possible” and similar words are intended to identify estimates and forward-looking
statements. Although we believe that these estimates and forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable
assumptions, they are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties and are made in light of information currently available to

outlook of Ukraine; physical damage to property, infrastructure and assets; the effect of sanctions and
export controls on supply chain, the ability to transact with key counterparties; the resulting volatility in the
Ukrainian hryvnia; our ability to operate and maintain our infrastructure; sanctions (including any
reputational harm from certain of the beneficial owners of VEON’s largest shareholder, LPE Middle East
Limited ("LetterOne"), being subject to sanctions) or any other considerations that could potentially
increase the perceived risk of government intervention in, or expropriation of, our assets or operations, its
impact on liquidity and our financial condition and risks relating to our ability to continue as a going
concern;

of the U.S. which has created volatility in energy markets and commercial and financial instability across
the region;

regulation on the macroeconomic environment, our operations, our ability and the ability of key third-party
suppliers to procure goods, software or technology necessary to provide services to our customers;

governing the telecommunications industry and taxation, laws on foreign investment, anti-corruption and
anti-terror laws, economic sanctions, import tariffs and restrictions, data privacy, anti-money laundering,
antitrust, national security and lawful interception and their official interpretation by Ukrainian
governmental and other regulatory bodies and courts, as well as risks relating to tax audits and evolving
international tax frameworks;
◦risks that the adjudications, administrative or judicial decisions in respect of legal challenges, license and
regulatory disputes, tax disputes or appeals may not result in a final resolution in our favor or that in the
event of an unsuccessful defense of material litigation claims, we are unable to settle such claims;
◦risks relating to our operations, including regulatory uncertainty regarding service offerings, licenses and
approvals or consents required from governmental authorities in relation thereto, frequency allocations,

issuer, including increased compliance costs and reduced disclosure requirements.
These factors are not necessarily all of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in
any of our forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could harm our future results. New risks
and uncertainties emerge from time to time and it is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors and
uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of
factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements used in this document are management’s best assessment of our strategic and financial
position and of future market conditions, trends, and other potential developments. While they are based on sources
believed to be reliable and on management’s current knowledge and best belief, they are merely estimates or predictions
and cannot be relied upon. In addition, such expectations, assumptions, and beliefs are subject to change due to factors that

are often beyond our control. As a result, the inclusion of the estimates or other forecast information in this document should
not be relied on as "guidance" or otherwise predictive of actual future events, and actual results may differ materially from
the forecasts.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of the filing of this document. Except to the extent required by law, we
disclaim any obligation to update or revise any of these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated

REVENUE

|  | Six-month period ended June 30
In millions of U.S. dollars |  | 2026 | 2025
Telecommunication and Infrastructure revenue |  | 521 | 480
Digital revenue |  | 141 | 59
Total Revenue |  | 662 | 539

Revenue increased by US$123 million, or 22.8%, to US$662 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, from
US$539 million for the corresponding period in 2025. This increase was driven by growth across both the telecommunication
and digital streams.
Telecommunication and infrastructure revenue increased by US$41 million to US$521 million for the six-month period ended
June 30, 2026, from US$480 million for the corresponding period in 2025, primarily driven by higher mobile average revenue
per user ("Mobile ARPU"), reflecting increased adoption of higher-value customer offers, continued growth in data

Table of Contents
consumption and expansion of the fixed broadband customer base. The increase also included a US$3 million contribution
from energy assets consolidated during the period.
Digital revenue increased by US$82 million to US$141 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, from US$59
million for the corresponding period in 2025, driven primarily by contributions from recently acquired businesses and
continued organic growth. Uklon contributed US$44 million reflecting its full six-month consolidation in the first half of 2026
following its acquisition in April 2025. Tabletki contributed US$13 million following its acquisition in February 2026. In
addition, Kyivstar TV revenue increased by US$20 million, driven by both the transition to gross revenue recognition and
continued growth in its subscriber base. The increase in digital revenue was further supported by ongoing organic growth
across other digital revenue streams.
OPERATING PROFIT
Our consolidated operating profit increased to US$240 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to
US$206 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, primarily as a result of revenue growth across the Group’s
telecommunication and digital streams, including the impact of acquired businesses. The increase was partially offset by
higher cost of services and selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily due to the consolidation of acquired
businesses and growth in the Group’s operating activities, as well as higher depreciation and amortization expenses, mainly
due to additions to fixed assets and acquired intangible assets.
NON-OPERATING PROFITS AND LOSSES
Finance costs
Finance costs decreased by US$2 million, or 5%, from US$39 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025 to
US$37 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026. Finance costs remained broadly stable for both periods.
Finance income
Finance income decreased by US$3 million, or 27%, from US$11 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025 to
US$8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026. This decrease was primarily attributable to the absence of US$8
million of interest income recognized in the prior year period on a loan to VEON Amsterdam B.V. This decline was partially
offset by higher income earned on deposits during the six-month period ended June 30, 2026.
Other non-operating loss, net
Other non-operating loss, net increased by US$17 million, or 425%, from US$4 million for the six-month period ended
June 30, 2025, to US$21 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026. The increase was primarily attributable to
non-cash losses arising from changes in the fair value of warrants (US$22 million), partially offset by the absence of certain
losses recognized in the prior-year period, including on the put option liability (US$2 million) and the purchase of foreign
currency to fund investments in Ukrainian government bonds (US$3 million).
Net foreign exchange gain/(loss)
Net foreign exchange gain/(loss) increased by US$24 million, or 184.6%, from a loss of US$13 million for the six-month
period ended June 30, 2025 to a gain of US$11 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026. This increase was
primarily attributable to the absence of US$20 million of foreign exchange losses on bonds held by Kyivstar Holdings that
were recognized in the prior year period. Foreign exchange gains generated by depreciation of the Ukrainian hryvnia against
the U.S. dollar and Euro during the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 also contributed to the favorable year-over year
variance.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE
Income taxes increased by US$4 million, or 11.4%, from US$35 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025 to
US$39 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026. This increase was driven by a higher taxable profit in the six-
month period ended June 30, 2026.

Table of Contents
P ROFIT FOR THE PERIOD
Our profit for the period increased by US$36 million, or 28.6%, from US$126 million for the six-month period ended June 30,
2025 to US$162 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, mainly associated with the increased revenues
across the Group’s telecommunication and digital streams, including contributions from recently acquired businesses and
higher net foreign exchange gains; partially offset by higher cost of services and selling, general and administrative
expenses, primarily due to the consolidation of acquired businesses and growth in the Group’s operating activities, as well
as higher depreciation and amortization expenses and loss from the fair-value remeasurement of warrant liabilities.
NON-IFRS MEASURES AND KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
We also manage our business by tracking Adjusted EBITDA and capital expenditures excluding licenses and rights of use
("Capex excl. licenses and ROU"), which each constitute non-IFRS financial measures. We believe these measures are
useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance. We use non-IFRS measures in addition to our results
determined in accordance with IFRS in order to evaluate our financial and operating performance, to generate future
operating plans and make strategic decisions. We believe that these measures, when taken collectively with financial
measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, may be helpful to investors because they provide additional tools for investors
to use in evaluating our ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies
operating in similar industries, subject to differences in the way it is calculated by different companies, because they provide
consistency and comparability with past financial performance. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA and Capex excl.
licenses and ROU may not be comparable to other similarly entitled measures computed by other companies.
We do not consider Adjusted EBITDA and Capex excl. licenses and ROU in isolation or as alternatives to financial measures
determined in accordance with IFRS. Investors are encouraged to review these measures and their respective
reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measures included below and to not rely on any single
financial measure to evaluate our business. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under IFRS
and should not be construed as a substitute for profit for the period as a measure of performance, or cash flow from
operations as a measure of liquidity.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortization, impairment, gain/loss on disposals
of non-current assets, net foreign exchange (loss)/gain and other non-operating (loss)/gain.
We define Capex excl. licenses and ROU as purchases of property and equipment, new construction, upgrades, intangible
assets, 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 expenditure.
Our Adjusted EBITDA increased to US$361 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to US$306
million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by higher revenues. This increase was partially offset
by higher cost of services, including the impact of gross-basis revenue recognition for Kyivstar TV services, and increased
energy and personnel costs.
The following table provides the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to profit for the period and purchases of property, plant
and equipment to Capex excl. licenses and ROU for the six-month period ended June 30:

Doubleplay 4G customers are mobile customers who used both our voice and data services via 4G (LTE) technology at any
time during the one month prior to such measurement date.
Mobile customers are customers in the registered customer base as of a given measurement date who engaged in a
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. Throughout this report, we refer to "mobile
customers" and "subscribers" interchangeably in reference to our mobile customers.
Multiplay customers are customers who used both our voice and data services via 4G (LTE) technology and also used one
or more of our digital products at any time during the one month prior to such measurement date.
Total digital MAU is a gross total cumulative MAU of applications offered. Under this metric, a single individual who is active
in more than one application is counted as a separate MAU under each such application, such that the total digital MAUs
may include individuals being counted more than once.

Total revenue |  | 662 | 539

Mobile ARPU measures the monthly average revenue per mobile user. Telecommunications revenue used to calculate
Mobile ARPU excludes guest roaming and wholesale international interconnection revenue because these are not generated
by our customers but are proceeds received from other operators for the services received by their subscribers. Revenue
from UTC, Helsi, Uklon, Tabletki and big data and cloud services are excluded from revenue used to calculate Mobile ARPU
because revenue from these sources may originate from guest users and non-mobile platforms. The digital revenue that is
included in the revenue used to calculate Mobile ARPU comes from digital services that are included in our bundle offers for
mobile subscribers, such as Kyivstar TV. Revenue attributed to fixed business is also excluded from revenue used for the
calculation of Mobile ARPU.
As of June 30, 2026, we had 21.8 million mobile customers, representing a decrease of 2.8% compared to June 30, 2025.
This was primarily due to the continued impact of war-related demographic factors, including population displacement and
migration.
Mobile ARPU increased to US$3.90 from US$3.40 or by 12.5% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to
the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to tariff optimization and repricing actions, continued modernization
of the subscriber base, and increased mobile data usage.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
GOING CONCERN
Despite the ongoing war and related uncertainties, the Group continued to deliver strong financial and operational
performance during the six months ended June 30, 2026. We maintained service continuity, generated positive operating
cash flows, maintained a strong liquidity position and continued investing in network resilience, digital services and strategic
acquisitions. These factors were considered by management in assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.
As of June 30, 2026, most of our employees remain in Ukraine, while millions of people have fled Ukraine and the country
has sustained significant damage to infrastructure and assets.
The ongoing war in Ukraine, the sanctions imposed on Russia by various jurisdictions, counter sanctions and other legal and
regulatory measures, as well as responses by our service providers, partners, suppliers and other counterparties, including
certain professional service providers we rely on, and the consequences of all the foregoing, have negatively impacted and,
if the war, sanctions and such responses continue or escalate, will continue to negatively impact, aspects of our operations
and results.
Our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. In
accordance with IAS 1, we have determined that the aforementioned conditions and events, considered in the aggregate,
may cast substantial doubt on our ability to continue as a going concern for at least 12 months after the date these
consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance. We expect the actions we have taken or will take will
mitigate the risk associated with the identified events and conditions. However, given the uncertainty and exogenous nature
of the ongoing war and potential sanctions, as well as potential new counter-sanctions we concluded that a material
uncertainty remains related to events or conditions that may cast substantial doubt on our ability to continue as a going
concern, such that we may be unable to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of our business.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our ability to generate sufficient cash for our ongoing operations depends on our operating performance, which in turn
depends, to some extent, on general economic, financial, industry, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond
our control.
The Group maintained a strong liquidity position as of June 30, 2026, supported by robust operating cash flow generation
despite significant investments in strategic investments during the period. Working capital decreased by US$72 million from
US$194 million to US$122 million during the six months ended 30 June 2026, primarily reflecting a US$95 million decrease
in current assets, partly offset by a US$23 million decrease in current liabilities. The decrease in current assets was mainly
attributable to a US$91 million reduction in cash and cash equivalents. While the Group generated US$331 million of net
cash from operating activities, this was more than offset by cash used in investing activities, primarily relating to the
acquisition of new subsidiaries, net of cash acquired. The decrease in current liabilities was primarily driven by a US$40
million reduction in current debt and derivative liabilities, mainly reflecting the repayment of bonds of US$11 million and a
lower current portion of lease liabilities (see Note 8 - Investments, debt and derivatives to the unaudited interim condensed
consolidated financial statements attached hereto). The latter was primarily due to the commencement of new lease
agreements with standard contractual terms following the expiry of certain lease agreements at the beginning of 2026,
resulting in a greater proportion of lease liabilities being classified as non-curre nt.
Our primary sources of liquidity are the cash flows generated by our operations. In addition, the exercise of outstanding
public warrants could provide additional cash proceeds; however, the timing and amount of any of such proceeds depend on
whether holders elect to exercise their warrants. We believe that this liquidity structure allows us to sustain fluctuations in
cash flow development. Liquidity inflows and outflows of operating companies are monitored and coordinated centrally by
our corporate treasury department. As of June 30, 2026, our cash and cash equivalents included US$351 million at the
Company's operating companies as cash at banks, current deposits and purchased short-term Ukrainian Sovereign Bonds,
cash of US$6.9 million at Kyivstar Holdings B.V. as cash at banks and money market funds and US$6.4 million at Kyivstar
Group Ltd. as cash at banks and money market funds. Additionally, an indemnity agreement between Kyivstar Holdings and
VEON Amsterdam is in place which is to see Kyivstar Holdings made whole for any external payments to eligible
noteholders to cover the estimated repayment of the 2025 Bonds. For the year ended December 31, 2025, our cash and
cash equivalents included cash US$440 million at the Company's operating companies as cash at banks, current deposits
and purchased short-term Ukrainian Sovereign Bonds, US$6.8 million at Kyivstar Holdings as cash at banks and money
market funds and US$8.5 million at Kyivstar Group Ltd. as cash at banks.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES
Net cash flows from operating activities increased by US$66 million, from US$265 million for the six-month period ended
June 30, 2025 to US$331 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026. This increase was primarily attributable to
higher operating profits mainly associated with the increased revenues across the Group’s telecommunication and digital
streams, including contributions from recently acquired businesses, partially offset by higher cost of services and selling,
general and administrative expenses, primarily due to the consolidation of acquired businesses and growth in the Group’s
operating activities. Additionally, higher interest received from deposits and lower income tax paid were also contributory to
the increase in cash flow from operating activities. Working capital changes remained broadly stable for both periods.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES
Net cash flows used in investing activities increased by US$510 million, from an inflow of US$128 million for the six-month
period ended June 30, 2025 to an outflow of US$382 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026. This increase
was driven primarily by the acquisitions of Shtorm, Tabletki and six solar power plants, for aggregate consideration of
US$234 million, US$18 million of higher capital expenditure on property, plant and equipment and intangible assets and
US$25 million net investment in financial assets, after deposit inflows, all of which occurred during the six-month period
ended June 30, 2026. Additionally, the non-recurrence of a US$364 million loan received from VEON Amsterdam B.V. in the
prior-year period, partially offset by the non-recurrence of a US$141 million cash outflow relating to the acquisition of Uklon
in the six-month period ended June 30, 2025 were also contributory factors to the change.
Acquisitions and Disposals
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Group completed the acquisition of Tabletki Group, ISP Shtorm LLC, and
six solar power plants, further expanding its digital services and energy infrastructure. These acquisitions resulted in the
recognition of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, reflecting expected synergies, future growth opportunities and
acquired customer relationships. There were no material disposals during the period. For further information on these
transactions, including preliminary purchase price allocations and assets acquired see Note 5 - Significant transactions, Note
6 - Property and Equipment and Note 7 - Intangible Assets and Goodwill to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated
financial statements attached hereto.
FINANCING ACTIVITIES
Net cash used in financing activities decreased by US$586 million, from US$618 million for the six-month period ended
June 30, 2025 to US$32 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026. This change primarily reflected repayment of
debt, including the repayment of the Kyivstar Holding B.V. bonds, and payments of lease liabilities. For additional information
regarding changes to our debt portfolio and lease liabilities, see Note 8 - Investments, debt and derivatives to the unaudited
interim condensed consolidated financial statements attached hereto.

During the six-months ended June 30, 2026, Kyivstar Holdings B.V. partially settled April 2025 Old Notes in the aggregate
amount of US$11 million, comprising US$10 million of principal and less than US$1 million of accrued interest.
On May 28, 2026, the Company settled an additional US$9 million, consisting of US$5 million of principal and US$4 million
of accrued interest for the Loan Note payable to VEON Amsterdam B.V., through an offset against amounts receivable from
VEON Amsterdam B.V. (see Note 12 to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements attached hereto).
On the same date, the loan note agreement was amended to extend the maturity date from August 12, 2026 to August 12,
2028. The remaining balance, including accrued interest, as of June 30, 2026 is US$53 million.
CASH SUBJECT TO CURRENCY AND CONTRACTUAL RESTRICTIONS
The ongoing war in Ukraine has significantly impaired our ability to make cash transfers into and out of Ukraine. In Ukraine,
more stringent capital controls were introduced by the National Bank of Ukraine("NBU") on February 24, 2022 in connection
with the declaration of martial law, which generally prohibit JSC Kyivstar and its subsidiaries from making any interest or
dividend payments to Kyivstar Group and transferring foreign currency to entities outside of Ukraine unless such payments
fall under a limited set of statutory exemptions. The capital controls are expected to last for the duration of the application of
martial law, and it is uncertain whether they will be relaxed by the NBU when martial law ends. Currently, it is not possible to
predict how long the martial law in Ukraine will last as it has been extended every 90 days since February 2022. However,
as of May 13, 2024, the NBU has permitted Ukrainian companies to pay dividends accrued for the calendar year 2024 and
subsequent years and additionally in August, 20 25, permitted the repatriation of dividends for the calendar year 2023 to
foreign investors abroad. Investors can repatriate dividends up to the equivalent of €1 million per calendar month.
FUTURE LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, our capital expenditures excluding licenses and right-of-use assets
(“CAPEX exc. licenses and ROU”) were US$126 million compared to US$134 million in the six-month period ended June 30,
2025. The decrease was primarily due to intensive modernization of network in 2025.
15
Table of Contents
There were no material changes in our capital commitments for the future purchase of property and equipment and
intangible assets or other guarantees and contingent liabilities from those disclosed in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 20-
F. We have no other incremental commitments, guarantees or contingent liabilities.
Our ability to generate revenue is dependent upon the operation of the wireless telecommunications networks authorized
under our various licenses for GSM-900/1800, "3G" (UMTS/WCDMA) mobile radiotelephone communications services and
"4G" (LTE). Under the license agreements, operating companies are subject to certain commitments, such as territory or
population coverage, level of capital expenditures and number of base stations to be fulfilled within a certain timeframe. If we
are found to be involved in practices that do not comply with applicable laws or regulations, we may be exposed to
significant fines, the risk of prosecution or the suspension or loss of our licenses, frequency allocations, authorizations or
various permissions, any of which could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. After
expiration of the license, our operating companies might be subject to additional payments for renewals, as well as new
license capital and other commitments.
Our medium-term plan for capital expenditures (excluding licenses and right-of-use assets) continues to focus on investment
in network resilience, further fiber rollout and energy security. During the period, network modernization, regulatory
compliance measures, and power-saving feature installations are key drivers of year-over-year capital expenditure growth,
ensuring high quality standards for customers.
Management anticipates that the funds necessary to meet our current and expected capital requirements in the foreseeable
future (including with respect to any possible acquisitions) will continue to come from:
•Cash we currently hold;
•Operating cash flows; and
•Issuances of debt securities on local and international capital markets, with international capital markets expected
to be reestablished as a viable funding source.
Following the onset of the war in Ukraine, our ability to generate cash to service our indebtedness has been materially
impaired, due to restrictive currency controls in Ukraine, and the development of sanctions in connection with the war. The
availability of external financing depends on many factors, including, but not limited to, the success of our operations,
contractual restrictions, the financial position of international and local banks, the willingness of international and local banks
to lend to our companies (including as a result of any sanctions concerns) and the liquidity and strength of international and
local capital markets. Due to the adverse impact the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine has had on us, the terms of
such external financing may be less favorable than our existing financing. Furthermore, our ability to raise additional capital
and the cost of raising such additional capital is affected by the strength of our credit rating by rating agencies, which is
currently below the credit rating that we had when the current Kyivstar Holdings financings were originally established.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had total cash & cash equivalents of approximately US$364 million. This comprised
approximately US$13 million of cash held at the level of its headquarters (“HQ”), which was deposited with international
banks and invested in money market funds, and which is fully accessible at HQ. In addition, the Company's operating
companies had a total cash position equivalent to US$351 million of which US$323 million held in banks in Ukraine.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risk arising from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates on
our obligations. As of June 30, 2026, our principal foreign currency exposures relate to the Ukrainian hryvnia, and to a small
extent the Uzbekistani som. Substantially all cash flows from our operating activities in Ukraine and Uzbekistan are
denominated in their respective functional currencies, while a significant portion of our indebtedness is denominated in U.S.
dollars unless incurred in, or economically hedged to, those local currencies.
To mitigate the risk of local currency depreciation, we maintain a portion of our cash and cash equivalents in U.S. dollars. As
of June 30, 2026, approximately 51% of our cash and bank deposits were held in in U.S. dollars, compared to 58% as of
December 31, 2025.
A depreciation of the Ukrainian hryvnia, and to a lesser extent Uzbekistani som, against the U.S. dollar could increase the
local currency cost of servicing our U.S. dollar denominated debt, reduce the U.S dollar value of cash flows generated by our
16
Table of Contents
operations, and adversely affect our liquidity, financial condition, results of operations and ability to repay or refinance
existing indebtedness.
Consistent with our treasury policies, we do not engage in derivative or treasury transactions for speculative purposes. Our
treasury function maintains risk management policies and procedures designed to monitor and manage foreign currency
risk, including guidelines governing the management and mitigation of foreign exchange exposures.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting
Standards (“IAS”) 34 Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, effective
at the time of preparing the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in
the annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s audited annual consolidated
financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025 as included in the Annual Report on the Form 20-F filed on
March 16, 2026.
The accounting policies applied are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the annual financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2025, except for any new standards and interpretations adopted as of January 1, 2026.
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical basis, except for
certain financial instruments and other items that are measured at fair value, as disclosed in the relevant accounting policies. The
interim condensed consolidated income statement has been presented based on the nature of the expense, other than ‘Selling,

(in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated)
Certain amounts reported in the interim condensed consolidated income statement, statement of financial position and cash
flows have been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Due to the ongoing war
between Russia and Ukraine, material uncertainties affecting the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern are discussed in
detail at the end of this note.
The comparative information for the period ended June 30, 2025 does not represent the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements of the Company as a legal parent. Instead, it has been prepared on a combined (predecessor) basis and
reflects the financial information for Kyivstar Holdings B.V. (formerly VEON Holdings B.V.) and its subsidiaries. Accordingly, such

period and does not necessarily reflect the results of operations, financial position or cash flows that would have been presented

Kyivstar operates. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars ("U.S. dollar"
or "US$"). In these Notes, U.S. dollar amounts are presented in millions, except for share amounts and as otherwise indicated.

For the purpose of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities measured in the
functional currency are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date, whereas income and
expenses are generally translated into U.S. dollars at historical monthly average exchange rates. Foreign currency translation
adjustments resulting from the process of translating financial statements into U.S. dollars are reported in other comprehensive
income and accumulated within a separate component of Equity.

GOING CONCERN
As of July 31, 2026, the war in Ukraine is ongoing, millions of people have fled Ukraine, and the country has sustained significant
damage to infrastructure and assets. Currently, we have 21.8 million subscribers in Ukraine, where they are supported by
approximately 5,667 employees. Kyivstar Group’s priority is to protect the safety and well-being of our employees and their
families. We have developed and, in some cases, implemented additional contingency plans to relocate work and/or personnel
who are integral to the provision of essential communication services to other geographies and add new locations, as
appropriate. As of July 31, 2026, most of our Ukraine subsidiary’s employees remain in the country.
The war has resulted in events and conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern:
•The Company may need to record future impairment charges in Ukraine, which could be material, if the war continues
or escalates and/or due to macroeconomic conditions.
•As of July 31, 2026, the Company continues to conclude that neither VEON Ltd. nor any of its subsidiaries is targeted
by sanctions imposed by any of the United States, European Union (and individual EU member states) and the United
Kingdom. However, the interpretation and enforcement of these sanctions and counter-sanctions may result in
unanticipated outcomes and could give rise to material uncertainties, which could complicate our business decisions.
For example, to protect U.S. foreign policy and national security interests, the U.S. government has broad discretion to
at times impose a broad range of extraterritorial “secondary” sanctions under which non-U.S. persons carrying out
certain activities may be penalized or designated as sanctioned parties, even if the activities have no ties, contact with,
or nexus to the United States or the U.S. financial system at all. These secondary sanctions could be imposed on the
Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries if they were to engage in activity that the U.S. government determined
was undertaken knowingly and rose to the level of material or significant support to, for, or on behalf of certain
sanctioned parties.
•Ukraine has also implemented and may implement further sanctions or measures on individuals or entities with close
ties to Russia, which may negatively impact Kyivstar, if VEON is considered by local Ukrainian authorities as being a
company controlled by sanctioned persons. In October 2023, VEON received notification from local custodian that the
following percentages of the corporate rights in our Ukrainian subsidiaries have been frozen: (i) 47.85% of Kyivstar, (ii)
100% of Ukraine Tower Company ("UTC"), a related party to the Company, (iii) 100% of Kyivstar.Tech, and (iv) 69.99%
of Helsi Ukraine. On November 29, 2024, the Shevchenkivskyi District Court of Kyiv ruled in favor of a request to
unfreeze 47.85% of VEON’s corporate rights in Kyivstar and 100% of VEON’s corporate rights in its other Ukrainian
subsidiaries. The decision fully removes the restrictions on VEON’s corporate rights imposed by Ukrainian courts on its
wholly owned Kyivstar and other Ukrainian subsidiaries. We are continuing to work with our local custodian to remove
any remaining restrictions in respect of corporate rights.
Management has taken actions to address the events and conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern:
•The Company has implemented business continuity plans to address known contingency scenarios to ensure that we
have adequate processes and practices in place to protect the safety of our people and to handle potential impacts to
our operations in Ukraine.
•The Company actively engages with stakeholders, including suppliers, customers, and regulatory authorities, to
proactively address potential disruptions. Diversification of supply chains and markets to reduce dependency on regions
affected by the war is implemented where possible. Management also continues to review and update risk management
policies to enhance resilience against the volatility stemming from the war.
•The Company continues to fund its operations for the next twelve months primarily through a combination of existing
liquidity and anticipated proceeds from its customers, including its wholesale business outside Ukraine. As of June 30,
2026, the Company holds US$364 in cash and cash equivalents and US$91 of other liquid financial assets, providing a
total available funding of approximately US$455, which significantly exceeds the Company’s projected operating
expenditures for the next twelve months. The Company has no material unrelated party debts and therefore no
unrelated party debt covenants. The resilience of the Company and its ability to generate strong cash flows has been
proven through the full-scale war since 2022.
•Management is actively monitoring any new developments in applicable sanctions to ensure that we continue to be in
compliance and to evaluate any potential impact on the Company’s financial performance, operations, and governance.
Management has actively engaged with sanctions authorities where appropriate. Management is engaging with
authorities in Ukraine to address any concerns they have about the ownership and management of Kyivstar and to

Table of Contents
Notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements
(in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated)
provide all necessary assurances to confirm that sanctioned individuals, including any beneficial owners of LPE Middle
East Limited (formerly L1T VIP Holdings S.à r.l., "LetterOne"), do not participate in the management of Kyivstar.
•Matters relating to the VEON-related legal proceedings and restrictions on certain corporate rights remain ongoing.
There were no material developments during the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, or during the period June 30,
2026 through July 31, 2026.
•The Company’s Nasdaq listing, together with the completion of its secondary offering in February 2026, continues to
enhance the Group’s access to capital markets and broaden its investor base.
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
basis. In accordance with IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, the Company has determined that the aforementioned
conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, may cast substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a
going concern for at least 12 months after the date these interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized
for issuance. Management expects the actions it has taken or will take will mitigate the risk associated with the identified events
and conditions. However, given the uncertainty and exogenous nature of the ongoing war and potential future imposed sanctions
as well as potential new counter-sanctions, management concluded that a material uncertainty remains related to events or
conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, such that it may be unable to
realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As a U.S. SEC registrant, the Company is required
to have its financial statements audited in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") standards.
References in these IFRS financial statements to matters that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern also raise substantial doubt as contemplated by the PCAOB standards.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES OF THE GROUP
2 SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Kyivstar operations are considered as one operating segment. While Kyivstar Group identifies a single reportable segment

Management evaluates Kyivstar’s performance on a regular basis, primarily based on earnings before interest, tax, depreciation,
amortization, impairment, gain or loss on disposals of non-current assets, other non-operating gains or losses, and for certain
non-recurring items such as listing expense (“Adjusted EBITDA”) along with assessing the capital expenditures excluding
certain costs such as those for telecommunication licenses and right-of-use assets (“CAPEX excl. licenses and ROU”).

Umbrella Incentive Plan
In December 2025, the Remuneration Committee approved the Group's Umbrella Incentive Plan (“Umbrella Plan”). Following the
listing on Nasdaq this plan will help to establish a flexible, market-aligned framework designed to support retention, reward
performance, and align with shareholder interests.
On January 27, 2026, certain operating companies executives were granted long term incentive ("LTI") award of 439,980 equity-
settled common shares under the Umbrella Plan (assuming maximum achievement). These awards are subject to a market
condition tied to an absolute share price target, applicable to the total number of shares granted with vesting scheduled for
December 31, 2027. The fair value of the awards with market performance conditions was determined using a Monte Carlo
simulation that takes into account the likelihood of the performance condition being satisfied.
During the six months period ended June 30, 2026, certain operating compaies executives were granted long term incentive
("LTI") award of 335,372 equity-settled common shares under the Umbrella Plan (assuming maximum achievement). These
awards are subject to a market condition tied to an absolute share price target, applicable to the total number of shares granted
with vesting scheduled for December 31, 2028. The fair value of the awards with market performance conditions was determined
using a Monte Carlo simulation that takes into account the likelihood of the performance condition being satisfied.
The following table sets forth the principal assumptions applied by the Group in determining the fair value of issued equity settled
share-based payment awards with market performance conditions:

Assumptions affecting inputs to fair value model | Equity-settled
Annual risk-free rates of return and discount rates (%) | 3.65% | - | 3.83%
Long-term dividend yield (%) |  |  | —%
Volatility of share price (%) | 48.44% | - | 49.80%
Share price (p) | $11.72 | - | $12.59

On February 10, 2026, certain directors were granted LTI award totaling 20,000 equity-settled common shares under the
Umbrella Plan. These awards vested immediately upon grant. Fair value was measured as the market price of the Company's
common shares as of the grant date.
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, a total of 20,000 common shares were transferred to the operating
companies' executives in connection with the equity awards that vested in February 2026.

4 INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense in the interim period is recognized based on management’s estimate of the weighted average annual
effective income tax rate expected for the full financial year, consistent with IAS 34. Income tax expense comprises current and
deferred tax. Current and deferred tax are measured in accordance with IAS 12. Changes in the estimated annual effective tax
rate are recognized prospectively in the interim period in which the estimate changes.
Income tax expense consisted of the following for the six and three-month periods ended June 30:

|  | Six-month period |  | Three-month period
|  | 2026 |  | 2025 |  | 2026 |  | 2025
Current income taxes |  | (34) |  | (32) |  | (18) |  | (18)
Deferred income taxes |  | (5) |  | (3) |  | (2) |  | (3)
Income taxes |  | (39) |  | (35) |  | (20) |  | (21)
Effective tax rate |  | 19.4% |  | 21.7% |  | 20.6% |  | 20.4%

Kyivstar Group is a tax resident of the UAE and in the process of obtaining a Qualified Freezone Entity status with 0% tax rate.
While the statutory tax rate in UAE is 9% ( and currently applicable), the Company's major business operations are in Ukraine
where the statutory tax rate is 18% and therefore closely represents the Group's effective tax rate for the period due to its
exposure to higher tax jurisdiction (Ukraine).
Global Minimum Tax
The Group falls within the scope of enacted Pillar Two legislation through its inclusion in the consolidated group headed by
VEON Ltd. as the ultimate parent entity (“UPE”). Accordingly, Kyivstar Group is covered under the Pillar Two framework
applicable to the VEON Group. No Pillar Two tax expense or income was recognized for the six and three-month periods ended
June 30, 2026 and 2025. The assessment of the potential exposure to Pillar Two income taxes is based on the most recent tax
filings, country-by-country reporting and financial statements for the constituent entities within the Kyivstar Group. Based on this
assessment, the Pillar Two effective tax rates in the majority of jurisdictions in which the Kyivstar Group operates are above 15%.
The Company has applied the IAS 12 exception to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and
liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes.

INVESTING ACTIVITIES OF THE GROUP
5 SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2026
Acquisition of Tabletki Group
On February 10, 2026, JSC Kyivstar signed a share purchase agreement ("SPA") to acquire 100% of shares of MTPK LLC and
its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Tabletki Group") for total consideration of US$161 upon closing of the transaction. Tabletki
Group, established in 2008, is a Ukrainian business specializing in the development and maintenance of an automated platform
for searching and booking medicines and other products from pharmacies in Ukraine. This strategic acquisition marks Kyivstar’s
expansion into digital healthcare and pharmacy-related consumer services in line with the Group’s digital operator strategy.
Tabletki Group consists of MTPK LLC, Farmel LLC, and Farma Studio LLC. The total consideration transferred amounts to
US$161, which was paid in full in cash in Ukrainian hryvnia. The agreement was subject to customary closing conditions and
approvals that were obtained on February 10, 2026, the date the acquisition was completed. The transaction is accounted for in
accordance with IFRS 3 Business Combinations.
The provisional fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities of Tabletki Group at the date of acquisition were:

| February 10, 2026
Non-current assets |
Intangible assets | 79
Current assets |
Cash and cash equivalents | 2
Other current assets | 1
Fair value of identifiable net assets | 82
Goodwill resulting from acquisition | 79
Purchase consideration | 161

The following table shows the details of cash outflow during the six-months ended June 30, 2026:

| June 30, 2026
Cash outflow, net of cash acquired |
Cash consideration | 161
Less: balances acquired |
Cash and cash equivalents | (2)
Net outflow of cash - investing activities | 159

The fair value of the customer relationships was determined to be US$61 with an estimated useful life of 12 years.The valuation
of the customer relationships was performed using the multi-period excess earnings method.
The fair value of the brands and trademarks was determined to be US$12 with an estimated useful life of 10 years. The valuation
of the brands and trademarks was performed using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach.
The fair value of the internally developed software was determined to be US$6 with an estimated useful life of 7 years. The
valuation of the internally developed software was performed using the replacement cost approach.
The fair value of acquired other current assets related to trade and other receivables is US$1, which approximates the gross
contractual amount, as a loss allowance is insignificant.
The goodwill recognized on the acquisition of Tabletkі Group represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair
value of the identifiable net assets acquired at the acquisition date.

Table of Contents
Notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements
(in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated)
Goodwill primarily reflects the expected synergies arising from the integration of Tabletkі Group into the Group’s operations,
including enhanced market presence in the digital healthcare ecosystem, access to established customer relationships,
expansion into new digital services, and the development and deployment of new digital devices leveraging combined
technological capabilities. These benefits do not meet the criteria for separate recognition as identifiable intangible assets.
The recognized goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
There were no transactions recognized separately from the acquisition of assets and assumption of liabilities in the business
combination.
From the date of acquisition, Tabletki Group contributed US$13 of revenue and US$8 profit before tax to the Group. If the
acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the period, the contribution to revenue would have been US$16 and contribution
to the profit before tax would have been US$10.
Acquisition-related costs of less than US$1 are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the interim condensed
consolidated income statement, and in operating cash flows in the interim condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.
The accounting for the acquisition of Tabletki Group remains provisional as the Company is continuing to finalize the valuation of
certain identifiable intangible assets, primarily internally developed software. As the valuation of the internally developed software
is not yet complete, the related fair values of the customer base and residual goodwill may also change because the software
represents a contributory asset in the valuation of the customer relationships. Accordingly, the amounts recognized for internally
developed software, customer relationships and goodwill remain provisional and may be revised during the IFRS 3 measurement
period as additional information becomes available about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. The
measurement period will not exceed 12 months from the acquisition date.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, Kyivstar recognized measurement period adjustments related to the acquisition of
Tabletki Group in accordance with IFRS 3. These adjustments reflected additional information obtained after the acquisition date
about facts and circumstances that existed as of that date and comprised:
•an increase in purchase consideration of US$1 following the finalization of the post-closing completion accounts
adjustment mechanism; and
•an increase of US$2 in the fair value of internally developed software recognized as an identifiable intangible asset.
The corresponding adjustments were recognized retrospectively as if the accounting for the business combination had been
completed at the acquisition date, with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill.
Acquisition of ISP Shtorm LLC
On February 26, 2026, JSC Kyivstar acquired 100% of the equity interests in ISP Shtorm LLC, a regional fixed broadband
internet service provider operating in Ukraine. This strategic acquisition supports Kyivstar’s continued expansion in the fixed
broadband segment and strengthens its position in converged telecommunications services. Kyivstar acquired 100% of ISP
Shtorm LLC for total consideration of US$10 upon the closing of the transaction. The agreement was subject to customary
closing conditions and approvals that were obtained on February 26, 2026, the date the acquisition was completed. The
transaction is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 3 Business Combinations.
The provisional fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities of ISP Shtorm LLC at the date of acquisition were:

| February 26, 2026
Non-current assets |
Intangible assets | 3
Property and equipment | 2
Non-current liabilities |
Deferred tax liability | (1)
Fair value of identifiable net assets | 4
Goodwill resulting from acquisition | 6
Purchase consideration | 10

The following table shows the details of cash outflow during the six-months ended June 30, 2026:

The purchase price allocation is provisional, as the Group is finalizing the valuation of certain tangible, intangible assets and
deferred tax balances. The recognized amounts are provisional and may be adjusted during the measurement period as
additional information about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date becomes available.
The fair value of the acquired intangible assets, comprising customer relationships, was determined to be US$3. The valuation
was performed using the multi-period excess earnings method. The useful life has been assessed as 6 years.
Goodwill arising on acquisition primarily relates to expected synergies from integrating the acquired business into the Group’s
operations and the assembled workforce. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
Deferred consideration of US$3 represents a fixed portion of the purchase price for the acquisition that is payable after closing
and is subject only to customary post-closing purchase price adjustments. As of June 30, 2026, the related liability was
recognized in the interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position within current liabilities, based on the expected
timing of payment.
From the acquisition date to June 30, 2026, Shtorm contributed US$1 of revenue. Had the acquisition occurred at the beginning
of the period, the acquired business would have contributed approximately US$2 of revenue. The impact on the Group’s profit
before tax for both periods was immaterial.
Acquisition of six solar power plants
On May 26, 2026, JSC Kyivstar acquired 100% of the equity interests in six solar power plant entities, consisting of
Energopostach-Plus LLC, Lightfull LLC, Sunlight Generation LLC, Ternovytsia Solar LLC, Energy Space LLC and Ternovytsia
Solar Plus LLC, for cash consideration of US$70 paid to the seller. Prior to the acquisition, JSC Kyivstar also provided
approximately US$11 of reimbursable financial assistance to the target companies to refinance existing bank indebtedness.
The acquired entities own and operate six solar power plants located in the Lviv region of Ukraine with a combined installed
generation capacity of 105 MW. The acquisition is consistent with the Group’s strategy to expand its energy generation
capabilities and enhance energy independence through investments in renewable energy infrastructure.
The acquisition was accounted for in accordance with IFRS 3 Business Combinations. The allocation of the purchase
consideration to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed is provisional as of June 30, 2026. The Group is in the
process of finalizing the valuation of the acquired assets and liabilities, including property, plant and equipment and any related
deferred tax balances. Any measurement period adjustments identified during the measurement period will be recognized
retrospectively in accordance with IFRS 3.
The provisional fair values of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date were as follows:

The acquired property, plant and equipment primarily comprise solar power plant infrastructure, including solar modules,
inverters, transformers, structures, buildings, grid-related equipment, other fixed assets and construction in progress. Excluding
construction in progress, the depreciable acquired property, plant and equipment have an estimated weighted-average remaining
useful life of approximately 17 years. The acquired property, plant and equipment were provisionally measured at a fair value of
US$49, representing a fair value step-up of approximately US$31 over the acquiree’s carrying amounts immediately prior to the
acquisition. The valuation of the property, plant & equipment was performed using the cost approach, specifically the current
replacement cost method.
An identifiable asset relating to feed-in tariff arrangements was recognized at its acquisition date fair value of US$11. The asset
was recognized separately from goodwill as it arises from contractual and other legal rights existing at the acquisition date and is
expected to generate economic benefits through regulated feed-in tariff rates until the expiry of the feed-in tariff regime on
December 31, 2029. The intangible asset has an estimated useful life of approximately 4 years, corresponding to the period from
the acquisition date (May 26, 2026) to the expiry of the feed-in tariff arrangements on December 31, 2029. The fair value of the
intangible asset was determined using an income approach, applying a with-and-without method. Under this approach, fair value
reflects the present value of the incremental cash flows attributable to the feed-in tariff arrangements.
The fair value of acquired trade receivables and other assets is US$6 which approximates the gross contractual amount, as a
loss allowance is insignificant.
As discussed above, current liabilities include approximately US$11 of reimbursable financial assistance provided to the target
companies prior to the acquisition to refinance existing bank indebtedness. This financial assistance was accounted for
separately from the acquisition and was not included in the consideration transferred.
The deferred tax asset of US$3 primarily relates to cumulative tax losses available for future utilization. The deferred tax liability
of US$8 primarily arises from fair value adjustments and the recognition of identifiable assets as part of the purchase price
allocation following the acquisition.
Acquisition-related costs of US$1 are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the interim condensed
consolidated income statement, and in operating cash flows in the interim condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

(in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated)
The goodwill recognized on the acquisition of the six solar power plants represents the excess of the consideration transferred
over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired at the acquisition date.
Goodwill primarily reflects the expected synergies arising from the integration of the six solar power plants into the Group’s
operations, including enhanced energy security, reduced exposure to energy market price fluctuations, and operational synergies
from integrating the acquired solar plants into the Group's existing Infrastructure business operations. These benefits do not
meet the criteria for separate recognition as identifiable intangible assets.
The recognized goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
Other than financial assistance provided prior to acquisition (as disclosed above), there were no transactions recognized
separately from the acquisition of assets and assumption of liabilities in the business combination.
From the date of acquisition, the six solar power plants contributed US$2 of revenue and US$1 profit before tax to the Group. If
the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the period, the contribution to revenue would have been US$9 and
contribution to the profit before tax would have been US$4.
The accounting for the purchase of the six solar power plants is provisional as the valuation of property and equipment,
intangible and other assets and liabilities, and residual goodwill related to this acquisition is not complete. Additional information
is being obtained and evaluated in relation to facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date, including final
asset-level valuation inputs and assumptions, the assessment of contractual arrangements and obligations, and supporting
documentation for certain assets and liabilities existing at the acquisition date. Accordingly the fair values assigned to tangible
and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are provisional based on management’s estimates and assumptions and
may be subject to change as additional information is obtained within the measurement period (not to exceed 12 months from
the acquisition date).
Update on acquisition of SUNVIN 11
The acquisition of SUNVIN 11 LLC was completed on December 15, 2025 and was disclosed in the Group's annual financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 using provisional amounts. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2026,
the Group finalized the purchase price allocation within the measurement period. The updates mainly related to the recognition of
identifiable intangible assets, primarily green tariff rights (US$2), the fair value of property, plant and equipment (US$2) and
related deferred tax liabilities (US$(1)). As a result, goodwill decreased from US$7 to US$4. These measurement period
adjustments did not have a material impact on the Group’s profit or loss for the period or on the previously issued annual
financial statements.
Acquisition of E-wings
On June 5, 2026, Uklon, a subsidiary of the Group, entered into a definitive agreement to acquire 100% of the shares of E-wings,
a Ukrainian electric scooter operator, for a purchase consideration of US$2. The acquisition is expected to enhance Uklon’s
multimodal mobility ecosystem by expanding its micromobility offering. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions
and is expected to be completed during the third quarter of 2026. As of June 30, 2026, the acquisition had not been completed
and, accordingly, no assets or liabilities related to the transaction have been recognized in these condensed consolidated interim
financial statements.
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2025
Acquisition of Uklon
On March 19, 2025, JSC Kyivstar signed an agreement to acquire Uklon Group, 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. Kyivstar acquired 97% of Uklon Group shares for a total consideration of US$158 upon the closing of
the transaction. The agreement was subject to customary closing conditions and approvals that were obtained on April 2, 2025,
the date the acquisition was completed.
The fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities of Uklon at the date of acquisition were:

Contingent consideration of US$12 was recognized at the acquisition date at fair value with US$2 being paid subsequent to the
reporting period. US$10 is payable upon fulfillment of certain conditions under the SPA. The contingent consideration was fully
settled during 2025 and no related liability remained outstanding as of December 31, 2025 or June 30, 2026.
Employees bonuses contingent consideration liability related to the portion attributable to pre-acquisition service, recognized at
the acquisition date at fair value, resulted from the replacement of share-based payment rewards with new bonuses liability that
is payable upon fulfillment of certain conditions under the SPA. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Group settled
the liability by paying US$4 (see Note 8).

As part of the agreement, Kyivstar entered into a symmetrical put and call option agreement for the remaining 3% interest in
Uklon. The put and call options may be exercised from April 2, 2028 through April 2, 2035. As a result, on the acquisition date,
the Group determined that it had a present ownership interest in the remaining 3% interest in Uklon and has accounted for the
call and put option as part of the consideration transferred and therefore, no non-controlling interest was recognized. Accordingly,
the option has been recorded as a financial liability at the present value of the amounts payable on exercise with subsequent
changes recognized in the interim condensed consolidated income statement.
The fair value of the customer base was determined to be US$32 with an estimated useful life of 10 years. The fair value of the
customer base was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method. The multi-period excess earnings approach
involves forecasting the net earnings expected to be generated by the asset, reducing them by appropriate returns on
contributory assets, and then discounting the resulting net cash flows to a present value using an appropriate discount rate.
The fair value of the trademark was determined to be US$18 with an estimated useful life of 10 years. The fair value of the
trademark was determined using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach. This involves forecasting avoided
royalties, reducing them by taxes and discounting the resulting net cash flows to a present value using an appropriate discount
rate.
The fair value of the developed technology intangible asset was determined to be US$8 with an estimated useful life of 3 years.
The fair value of the developed technology was determined using the replacement cost approach. In the replacement cost
approach, the fair value of an asset is based on the cost of a market participant to reconstruct a substitute asset of comparable
utility, adjusted for any obsolescence.
The fair value of acquired trade and other receivables is US$2, which is very close to gross contractual amount, as a loss
allowance is insignificant.
The significant goodwill recognized from the acquisition of Uklon can be attributed to several factors, including Uklon's strong
brand value and established customer relationships, which enhance Kyivstar’s market position. Additionally, the integration of
Uklon’s services is expected to create operational synergies, leading to cost savings and improved service offerings. The
acquisition also allows for market expansion and increased subscriber growth potential, while Uklon's technological expertise
contributes to innovative capabilities. Overall, the goodwill reflects the anticipated future economic benefits arising from these
elements. The goodwill will not be deductible for tax purposes.
There were no transactions recognized separately from the acquisition of assets and assumption of liabilities in the business
combination.
From the date of acquisition, Uklon contributed US$22 of revenue and US$6 profit before tax to the Group. If the acquisition had
taken place at the beginning of the year, the contribution to revenue would have been US$41 and contribution to the profit before
tax for the Group would have been US$10. These amounts have been calculated using Uklon’s results and adjusting them for:
•differences in the accounting policies between the Group and Uklon, and
•additional amortization that would have been charged on the assumption that the fair value adjustments to intangible
assets had applied from January 1, 2025, together with their consequential tax effects.
Acquisition-related costs of US$1 are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the interim condensed
consolidated income statement, and in operating cash flows in the interim condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.
There were no further significant transactions during the six and three-month periods ended June 30, 2025, other than disclosed
above and in Note 1.

At fair value
Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of the three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the
relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly;
Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.
On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews if there are any indicators for a possible transfer between fair value hierarchy levels.
This depends on how the Company is able to obtain the underlying inputs when assessing the fair valuations. During the three-
month period ended June 30, 2026, there were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements.
As of June 30, 2026, the Group had 7,666,528 Warrants outstanding (December 31, 2025: 7,666,528). Each Warrant entitles the
holder to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of US$11.50 per share. The Warrants are exercisable from
September 14, 2025 and will expire on August 14, 2030. There were no Warrants exercised during the six-month period ended
June 30, 2026.
The Warrants are accounted for as liabilities and are measured at fair value as of each reporting period. As the Warrants are
traded on an active market under the trading symbol "KYIVW", the fair value of the warrants is a Level 1 fair value measurement.
The change in the fair value of the Warrants for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 amounted to a loss of US$22 which
has been recorded in the interim condensed consolidated income statement within other non-operating loss, net.
At discounted redemption amount
Put option liability represents Helsi put option liability amounting to US$1 (December 31, 2025: US$1) and Uklon put option
liability amounting to US$1 (December 31, 2025: US$1), both measured at the discounted redemption amount.

liabilities under these arrangements represented approximately 67% (2025: 70%) of the Company’s total lease liabilities. The

principal. On September 17, 2025, repayment of US$124 was made, consisting of US$122 of principal and US$2 of interest. On
May 28, 2026, the Company settled an additional US$9, consisting of US$5 of principal and US$4 of accrued interest, through
an offset against amounts receivable from VEON Amsterdam B.V. (see Note 12). On the same date, the loan note agreement

interest, as of June 30, 2026 is US$53.
