Item 9A. Controls and Procedures. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. 61 Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2025. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2025, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. We have included our Management Report over Internal Control over Financial Reporting in “Item 15. Exhibits, Financial Statement Schedules” and is incorporated in this Item 9A by reference. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act during the fourth fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls Our management, including our CEO and CFO, believes that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our objectives and are effective at the reasonable assurance level. However, our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Item 9B. Other Information.

Coty’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Coty’s management evaluated the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2025 based on the criteria established in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on the evaluation, management has concluded that Coty maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2025. The Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2025 has been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their attestation report which appears herein. /s/Sue Nabi /s/Laurent Mercier Sue Nabi Laurent Mercier Chief Executive Officer Chief Financial Officer August 21, 2025 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of Coty Inc. Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Coty Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule as of and for the year ended June 30, 2025, of the Company and our report dated August 21, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and financial statement schedule. Basis for Opinion The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP New York, New York August 21, 2025 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Coty Inc. Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Coty Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), equity and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2025, and the related notes and the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated August 21, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Other Intangible Assets, net – CoverGirl and Sally Hansen Trademark Valuations – Refer to Notes 2 and 9 to the financial statements Critical Audit Matter Description The Company assesses indefinite-lived other intangible assets (trademarks) at least annually as of May 1 for impairment, or more frequently if certain events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a trademark below its carrying value. Trademarks are tested for impairment on a brand level basis. The trademarks’ fair values are based upon the income approach, primarily utilizing the relief from royalty methodology. This methodology assumes that, in lieu of ownership, a third party would be willing to pay a royalty in order to obtain the rights to use the trademark. An impairment loss is recognized when the estimated fair value of the trademark is less than the carrying value. Fair value calculations require significant judgments in determining both the trademarks’ estimated cash flows as well as the appropriate discount rates applied to those cash flows to determine fair value. Variations in economic conditions or a change in general consumer demand, operating results estimates, or the application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different results. During fiscal 2025, the Company recorded impairment charges as the fair values were lower than the carrying values for certain trademarks. As of June 30, 2025, the carrying values of the CoverGirl and Sally Hansen trademarks were $266.4 million and $163.7 million, respectively, and their fair values exceeded their carrying values by 0.2% and 2.5%, respectively. Given the significant judgments made by management to estimate fair value, especially those related to forecasted revenue growth rates and selection of the discount rates, and the difference between the fair values and carrying values for the CoverGirl and Sally Hansen trademarks, performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of forecasted revenue growth rates and selection of the discount rates for the CoverGirl and Sally Hansen trademarks required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists. How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit Our audit procedures related to the forecasted revenue growth rates and the selection of the discount rates for the CoverGirl and Sally Hansen trademarks included the following, among others: • We tested the effectiveness of controls over trademarks, including those over the forecasted revenue growth rates and the selection of the discount rates. • We evaluated management’s ability to accurately forecast revenue growth rates by comparing actual results to management’s historical forecasts. • We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s forecasted revenue growth rates by comparing management’s forecasts with: ◦ Historical cash flows and trends; ◦ Internal communications to management and the Board of Directors; and ◦ Forecasted information included in industry reports of the Company and selected companies in its peer group. • We considered the impact of industry and market conditions on management’s forecasts, including consideration of the effects related to the current macroeconomic environment. • We evaluated the impact of changes in management’s forecasts from the May 1, 2025 annual measurement date to June 30, 2025. • With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the valuation approach and discount rates, including testing the underlying source information and the mathematical accuracy of the calculations, and developing independent estimates and comparing those to the respective discount rates selected by management. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP New York, New York August 21, 2025 We have served as the Company’s auditor since 1995.

F-8 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Coty Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “Coty”) manufacture, market, sell and distribute branded beauty products, including fragrances, color cosmetics and skin & body related products throughout the world. Coty is a global beauty company with a rich entrepreneurial history and an iconic portfolio of brands. The Company operates on a fiscal year basis with a year-end of June 30. Unless otherwise noted, any reference to a year preceded by the word “fiscal” refers to the fiscal year ended June 30 of that year. For example, references to “fiscal 2025” refer to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. When used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the term “includes” and “including” means, unless the context otherwise indicates, including without limitation. The Company’s sales generally increase during the second fiscal quarter as a result of increased demand associated with the winter holiday season. Financial performance, working capital requirements, sales, cash flows and borrowings generally experience variability during the three to six months preceding the holiday season. Product innovations, new product launches and the size and timing of orders from the Company’s customers may also result in variability. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying financial statements of the Company are presented on a consolidated basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company also consolidates majority-owned entities in the United States of America, United Arab Emirates, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and South Korea where the Company has the ability to exercise control. Ownership interests of noncontrolling parties are presented as noncontrolling interests or redeemable noncontrolling interests, as applicable. We have combined ‘Accounts payable’ and ‘Accrued expenses’ in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, and conformed to this presentation in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and certain notes for all years presented. We believe that combining these line items more accurately reflects the nature of the related balances, which consist of payables to trade creditors. This reclassification was made solely for presentation purposes and had no impact on the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2025 or 2024. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Significant accounting policies that contain subjective management estimates and assumptions include those related to revenue recognition, the net realizable value of inventory, the fair value of equity investments, the assessment of goodwill, other intangible assets and long-lived assets for impairment, and income taxes. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions. Significant changes, if any, in those estimates and assumptions, including those resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment, will be reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements in future periods. Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. Restricted Cash Restricted cash represents funds that are not readily available for general purpose cash needs due to contractual limitations. Restricted cash is classified as a current or long-term asset based on the timing and nature of when or how the cash is expected to be used or when the restrictions are expected to lapse. As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had restricted cash of $ 13.3 and $ 19.8 , respectively, included in Restricted cash in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The restricted cash balances as of June 30, 2025 and 2024 primarily provide collateral for certain bank guarantees on rent, customs and duty accounts and also consists of collections on factored receivables that remain unremitted to the factor as of June 30, 2025 and 2024. Restricted cash is included as a component of Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. F-9 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) Trade Receivables Trade receivables are stated net of the allowance for doubtful accounts and cash discounts, which is based on the evaluation of the accounts receivable aging, specific exposures, and historical trends. We make estimates of expected credit and collectibility trends for the allowance for doubtful accounts based upon our assessment of historical experience, the age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality of our customers, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect our ability to collect from customers. Trade receivables are written off on a case-by-case basis, net of any amounts that may be collected. Inventories Inventories include items which are considered salable or usable in future periods, and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being based on standard cost which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. Costs include direct materials, direct labor and overhead (e.g., indirect labor, rent and utilities, depreciation, purchasing, receiving, inspection and quality control) and in-bound freight costs. The Company classifies inventories into various categories based upon their stage in the product life cycle, future marketing sales plans and the disposition process. The Company also records an inventory obsolescence reserve, which represents the excess of the cost of the inventory over its net realizable value, based on product sales projections. This reserve is calculated using an estimated obsolescence percentage applied to the inventory based on age, historical trends, and requirements to support forecasted sales. In addition, and as necessary, the Company may establish specific reserves for future known or anticipated events. Equity Investments The Company elected the fair value option to account for its investment in Rainbow JVCO LTD and subsidiaries (together, "Wella" or the “Wella Company”) to align with the Company’s strategy for this investment. The fair value is updated on a quarterly basis. The investments are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy because the Company estimates the fair value of the investments using a combination of the income approach, the market approach and private transactions, when applicable. Changes in the fair value of equity investments under the fair value option are recorded in Other (income) expense, net within the Consolidated Statements of Operations (see Note 10—Equity Investments). Property and Equipment and Other Long-lived Assets Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization. The cost of renewals and betterments is capitalized and depreciated. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Property and equipment that is disposed of through sale, trade-in, donation, or scrapping is written off, and any gain or loss on the transaction, net of costs to dispose, is recorded in Selling, general and administrative expense. Depreciation and amortization are computed principally using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Description Estimated Useful Lives Buildings 20 - 40 years Marketing furniture and fixtures 3 - 5 years Machinery and equipment 2 - 15 years Computer equipment and software 2 - 5 years Property and equipment under finance leases and leasehold improvements Lesser of lease term or economic life Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized principally using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Description Estimated Useful Lives License agreements 2 - 34 years Customer relationships 2 - 28 years Trademarks 2 - 30 years Product formulations and technology 2 - 28 years Long-lived assets, including tangible and intangible assets with finite lives, are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances occur, a recoverability test is performed comparing projected undiscounted cash flows from the use and eventual disposition of an asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the projected undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment charge would be recorded for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value. The Company estimates fair value based on the best information available, including discounted cash flows and/or the use of third-party valuations. F-10 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) Goodwill and Other Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the cost of purchased businesses over the fair value of their underlying net assets. Goodwill is allocated and evaluated at the reporting unit level, which are the Company’s operating segments. The Company allocates goodwill to one or more reporting units that are expected to benefit from synergies of the business combination. Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are evaluated for impairment annually as of May 1 or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. When testing goodwill for impairment, the Company has the option of first performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as the basis to determine if it is necessary to perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test. In performing its qualitative assessment, the Company considers the extent to which unfavorable events or circumstances identified, such as changes in economic conditions, industry and market conditions or company specific events, could affect the comparison of the reporting unit’s fair value with its carrying amount. If the Company concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. Quantitative impairment testing for goodwill is based upon the fair value of a reporting unit as compared to its carrying value. The Company makes certain judgments and assumptions in allocating assets and liabilities to determine carrying values for its reporting units. To determine fair value of the reporting unit, the Company uses a combination of the income and market approaches, when applicable. Under the income approach, fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow method, projecting future cash flows of each reporting unit, as well as a terminal value, and discounting such cash flows at a rate of return that reflects the relative risk of the cash flows. Under the market approach, when applicable, information from comparable publicly traded companies with similar operating and investment characteristics as the reporting units is utilized to create valuation multiples that are applied to the operating performance of the reporting units being tested, to value the reporting unit. The impairment loss recognized would be the difference between a reporting unit’s carrying value and fair value in an amount not to exceed the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. Indefinite-lived other intangible assets principally consist of trademarks. The fair values of indefinite-lived other intangible assets are estimated and compared to their respective carrying values. The trademarks’ fair values are based upon the income approach, utilizing the relief from royalty or excess earnings methodology. This methodology assumes that, in lieu of ownership, a third party would be willing to pay a royalty in order to obtain the rights to use the comparable asset. An impairment loss is recognized when the estimated fair value of the intangible asset is less than its carrying value. Leases All of the Company’s material leases are operating leases. These are primarily for real estate properties, including corporate offices, retail stores and facilities to support the Company's manufacturing, research and development and distribution operations. For any new or modified lease, the Company, at the inception of the contract, determines whether a contract is or contains a lease. The Company records right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease obligations for its operating leases, which are initially recognized based on the discounted future lease payments over the term of the lease. Variable lease payments are not included in the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities. As the rate implicit in the Company's leases is not easily determinable, the Company’s applicable incremental borrowing rate is used in calculating the present value of the sum of the lease payments. Lease term is defined as the non-cancelable period of the lease plus any options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. The Company has elected not to recognize ROU asset and lease obligations for its short-term leases, which are defined as leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. As an accounting policy election for all asset classes, the Company elected the practical expedient related to lease and non-lease components, which allows a lessee to not separate non-lease from lease components and instead account for consideration paid in a contract as a single lease component. Deferred Financing Fees The Company capitalizes costs related to the issuance of debt instruments, as applicable. Such costs are amortized over the contractual term of the related debt instrument in Interest expense, net using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Noncontrolling Interests and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests Interests held by third parties in consolidated majority-owned subsidiaries are presented as noncontrolling interests, which represents the noncontrolling stockholders’ interests in the underlying net assets of the Company’s consolidated majority- F-11 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) owned subsidiaries. Noncontrolling interests that are not redeemable are reported in the equity section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Noncontrolling interests, where the Company may be required to repurchase the noncontrolling interest under a put option or other contractual redemption requirement, are reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets between liabilities and equity, as redeemable noncontrolling interests. The Company adjusts the redeemable noncontrolling interests to the higher of the redemption value or the carrying value (the acquisition date fair value adjusted for the noncontrolling interest’s share of net income (loss) and dividends) on each balance sheet date with changes recognized as an adjustment to retained earnings, or in the absence of retained earnings, as an adjustment to additional paid-in capital. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized at a point in time and/or over time when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, which usually occurs upon delivery. Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring those goods or services. At contract inception, the Company assesses the goods and services promised in its contracts with customers and identifies a performance obligation for each promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services) that is distinct. To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers all of the goods or services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. The Company’s revenue contracts principally represent a performance obligation to sell its beauty products to trade customers and are satisfied when control of promised goods and services is transferred to the customers. Net revenues comprise gross revenues less customer discounts and allowances, actual and expected returns (estimated based on an analysis of historical experience and position in product life cycle) and various trade spending activities. Trade spending activities represent variable consideration promised to the customer and primarily relate to advertising, product promotions and demonstrations, some of which involve cooperative relationships with customers. The costs of trade spend activities are estimated considering all reasonably available information, including contract terms with the customer, the Company’s historical experience and its current expectations of the scope of the activities, and is reflected in the transaction price when sales are recorded. The Company’s payment terms vary by the type and location of its customers and the products offered. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. The Company’s sales return accrual reflects seasonal fluctuations, including those related to revenues for the holiday season in the first half of the fiscal year. This accrual is a subjective critical estimate that has a direct impact on reported net revenues, and is calculated based on history of actual returns, estimated future returns and information provided by retailers regarding their inventory levels. In addition, as necessary, specific accruals may be established for significant future known or anticipated events. The types of known or anticipated events that the Company has considered, and will continue to consider, include the financial condition of the Company’s customers, store closings by retailers, changes in the retail environment, and the Company’s decision to continue to support new and existing brands. Returns represented 2 %, 1 % and 2 % of gross revenue after customer discounts and allowances in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Trade spending activities recorded as a reduction to gross revenue after customer discounts and allowances represented 10 %, 9 %, and 10 % in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company accounts for certain customer store fixtures as other assets. Such fixtures are amortized using the straight-line method over the period of 3 to 5 years as a reduction of revenue. Cost of Sales Cost of sales includes all of the costs to manufacture the Company’s products. For products manufactured in the Company’s own facilities, such costs include raw materials and supplies, direct labor and factory overhead. For products manufactured for the Company by third-party contractors, such costs represent the amounts invoiced by the contractors. Cost of sales also includes royalty expense associated with license agreements. Additionally, shipping costs, freight-in and depreciation and amortization expenses related to manufacturing equipment and facilities are included in Cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses include advertising and promotional costs and research and development costs. Also included in Selling, general and administrative expenses are share-based compensation, certain warehousing fees, manufacturing fixed costs, personnel and related expenses, rent on operating leases, and professional fees. F-12 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) Advertising and promotional costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $ 1,574.4 , $ 1,625.5 and $ 1,479.6 in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Included in advertising and promotional costs are $ 115.7 , $ 113.6 , and $ 103.0 of depreciation of marketing furniture and fixtures, such as product displays, in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $ 123.0 , $ 126.8 and $ 105.2 in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Share-Based Compensation Common Stock Common shares are available to be awarded for the exercise of phantom units, vested stock options, the settlement of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance restricted stock units (“PRSUs”), and the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock. The Company accounts for its share-based compensation plans for Common Stock as equity awards, aside from phantom units. For those awards treated as equity, share-based compensation expense is measured and fixed at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award and is recognized on a straight-line basis, net of estimated forfeitures, over the employee’s requisite service period and, for PRSUs, when it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. For PRSUs, in a period we determine it is no longer probable that we will achieve certain performance measures for the awards, we reverse the stock-based compensation expense that we had previously recognized and associated with the portion of PRSUs that are no longer expected to vest. The amount of the expense ultimately recognized depends on the number of awards that actually vest. Accordingly, stock-based compensation expense may vary from period to period. The Company accounts for its phantom units as a liability award. For those awards treated as a liability, share-based compensation expense is measured at the end of each reporting period based on the fair value of the award on each reporting date and recognized as an expense to the extent earned. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Equity and liability awards generally vest over a term of three or five years. Treasury Stock The Company accounts for treasury stock under the cost method. When shares are reissued or retired from treasury stock they are accounted for at an average price. When treasury stock is re-issued at a price higher than its cost, the difference is recorded as a component of Additional paid-in-capital in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. When treasury stock is re-issued at a price lower than its cost, the difference is recorded as a reduction of Additional paid-in-capital to the extent that there are treasury stock gains to offset the losses. If there are no treasury stock gains in Additional paid-in-capital, the losses upon re-issuance of treasury stock are recorded as a reduction of Retained earnings in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Income Taxes The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and various foreign jurisdictions. The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Therefore, income tax expense is based on reported (Loss) income before income taxes, and deferred income taxes reflect the effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are recognized for financial reporting purposes and the carrying amounts that are recognized for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized based on currently available evidence. The Company considers how to recognize, measure, present and disclose in financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Company is subject to tax audits in various jurisdictions. The Company regularly assesses the likely outcomes of such audits in order to determine the appropriateness of liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits (“UTBs”). The Company classifies interest and penalties related to UTBs as a component of the provision for income taxes. For UTBs, the Company first determines whether it is more-likely-than-not (defined as a likelihood of more than fifty percent) that a tax position will be sustained based on its technical merits as of the reporting date, assuming that taxing authorities will examine the position and have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets this more-likely-than-not threshold is then measured and recognized at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely to be realized upon effective settlement with a taxing authority. As the determination of liabilities related to UTBs and associated interest and penalties requires significant estimates to be made by the Company, there can be no assurance that the Company will accurately predict the outcomes of these audits, and thus the eventual outcomes could have a material impact on the Company’s operating results or financial condition and cash flows. F-13 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) As a result of the 2017 Tax Act changing the U.S. to a modified territorial tax system, the Company no longer asserts that any of its undistributed foreign earnings are permanently reinvested. The Company does not expect to incur significant withholding or state taxes on future distributions. To the extent there remains a basis difference between the financial reporting and tax basis of an investment in a foreign subsidiary after the repatriation of the previously taxed income, the Company is permanently reinvested. A determination of the unrecognized deferred taxes related to these components is not practicable. The Tax Act requires a U.S. shareholder of a foreign corporation to include in income its global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”). In general, GILTI is described as the excess of a U.S. shareholder’s total net foreign income over a deemed return on tangible assets. An entity may choose to recognize deferred taxes for temporary differences expected to reverse as GILTI in future years or an entity can elect to treat GILTI as a period cost and include it in the tax expense of the year it is incurred. As such, the Company has elected to treat the tax on GILTI as a tax expense in the year it is incurred rather than recognizing deferred taxes. On July 4, 2025, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (the “Act”) was enacted into law. The Act includes changes to U.S. tax law that will be applicable to the Company beginning in July 2025. These changes include provisions allowing accelerated tax deductions for qualified property and research expenditures. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the Act to its consolidated financial statements. Restructuring Costs Charges incurred in connection with plans to restructure and integrate acquired businesses or in connection with cost-reduction initiatives that are initiated from time to time are included in Restructuring costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations if such costs are directly associated with an exit or disposal activity, a reorganization, or with integrating an acquired business. These costs can include employee separations, contract and lease terminations, and other direct exit costs. Employee severance and other termination benefits are primarily determined based on established benefit arrangements, local statutory requirements or historical practices. The Company recognizes these benefits when payment is probable and estimable. Other business realignment costs represent the incremental cost directly related to the restructuring activities which can include accelerated depreciation, professional or consulting fees and other internal costs including compensation related costs for dedicated internal resources. Other business realignment costs are generally recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Fair Value Measurements The following fair value hierarchy is used in selecting inputs for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and the Company’s assumptions (unobservable inputs). The Company evaluates these inputs and recognizes transfers between levels, if any, at the end of each reporting period. The hierarchy consists of three levels: Level 1 - Valuation based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 - Valuation based on inputs other than Level 1 inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities either directly or indirectly; Level 3 - Valuation based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and supported by little or no observable market activity. Apart from Coty’s equity investment in Wella (see Note 10—Equity Investments), the Company has not elected the fair value measurement option for any financial instruments or other assets not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities All derivatives are recognized as assets or liabilities and measured at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. For derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges under FASB ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC 815"), the change in fair value of the derivative is initially recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and is subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged exposure impacts earnings. For derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges, gains (losses) from changes in fair values are recognized in Net income (loss). The Company does not enter into derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. F-14 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) Foreign Currency Exchange gains or losses incurred on non-financing foreign exchange currency transactions conducted by one of the Company’s operations in a currency other than the operation’s functional currency are reflected in Cost of sales or operating expenses. Net (losses)/gains of $( 21.7 ), $( 18.1 ) and $( 32.3 ) in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively resulting from non-financing foreign exchange currency transactions are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange in effect at the end of the reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during each reporting period presented. Translation gains or losses are reported as cumulative adjustments in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI/(L)”). Net (losses)/gains of $( 3.8 ), $( 16.5 ) and $( 12.2 ) in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, resulting from financing foreign exchange currency transactions are included in Interest expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Lacoste Fragrances License Termination During fiscal 2023, the Company terminated its licensing arrangement for Lacoste fragrances and received termination payments from the licensor totaling € 87.8 million (approximately $ 93.9 ). The Company recognized a net gain within Selling, general and administrative expenses of $ 104.4 reflecting the termination proceeds, net of estimated expenses for contractual termination obligations and non-recoverable assets associated with the license termination. During fiscal 2024, the Company received an additional payment of € 15.0 million (approximately $ 16.2 ) and made contractual termination payments of $ 4.9 . The Company completed sales of remaining Lacoste fragrances inventory through December of calendar year 2023, as per a contractual inventory sell-off arrangement, and recognized a loss of $ 0.6 within Selling, general and administrative expenses reflecting the disposal of remaining inventory in fiscal 2024. F-15 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) Russia Market Exit On April 27, 2022, the Company announced the Board of Directors’ decision to wind down its Russian operations. During fiscal 2023, the Company recognized total pre-tax gains in the Consolidated Statements of Operations of $ 17.0 are primarily related to a bad debt accrual release, due to better than expected collections, in addition to $ 0.4 of income tax benefits. The Company anticipates that it will incur an immaterial amount of additional costs through completion of the wind down. Additionally, management anticipates derecognizing the cumulative translation adjustment balance pertaining to the Russian subsidiary. The Company has substantially completed its commercial activities in Russia. However, the Company anticipates that the process related to the liquidation of the Russian legal entity will take an extended period of time. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to an entity's chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), a description of other segment items by reportable segment, and any additional measures of a segment's profit or loss used by the CODM when deciding how to allocate resources. The Company has adopted the standard on a retrospective basis and made the required annual disclosures as of June 30, 2025. Interim disclosures are required for periods within fiscal years beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. As the guidance only requires additional disclosure, there were no effects of adoption on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

SEGMENT REPORTING Operating and reportable segments (referred to as “segments”) reflect the way the Company is managed and for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company has designated its Chief Executive Officer as the CODM. Certain income and shared costs and the results of corporate initiatives are managed by Corporate. Corporate primarily includes stock compensation expense, restructuring and realignment costs, costs related to acquisition and divestiture activities, and impairments of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangibles that are not attributable to ongoing operating activities of the segments. Corporate costs are not used by the CODM to measure the underlying performance of the segments. F-16 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) With the exception of goodwill and acquired intangible assets, the Company does not identify or monitor assets by segment. The Company does not present assets by reportable segment since various assets are shared between reportable segments. The allocation of goodwill by segment is presented in Note 9—Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, net. In fiscal 2025, the Company adopted ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, on a retrospective basis. Refer to Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Upon adoption of this ASU, we have identified and presented significant segment expenses, which are those expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. Significant segment expenses include cost of sales and advertising and consumer promotion costs. The CODM evaluates operating income (loss) and compares to budget and actual historical results to assess segment performance and make operating decisions and allocate resources among the segments.

The United States is the only country that accounts for more than 10% of total net revenues for fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023. The United States had net revenues of $ 1,453.3 , $ 1,617.7 and $ 1,547.7 in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. No customer or group of affiliated customers accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s Net revenues in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 or are otherwise deemed significant. For Long-lived assets, a major country is defined as a group of subsidiaries within a country with combined long-lived assets greater than 10% of consolidated long-lived assets or as otherwise deemed significant. Long-lived assets include property and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets. During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company revised the definitions of its product categories to better monitor against its long-term strategic objectives and to refine the presentation of certain multi-category brands. As a result, the Company has made certain reclassifications of its product sales among its product categories. The prior period has been recast to reflect the current period presentation. Fragrance products include a variety of perfumes and colognes offering various scents to suit individual preferences and occasions. Color Cosmetic products include lip, eye, facial and other color products including nail color. Body care and other products include shower gels, body sprays, and deodorants.

Total restructuring charges, which consisted of employee severance, have been recorded in Corporate. The related liability balance at June 30, 2025 was $ 74.1 . The Company currently estimates that the total accrual will result in cash expenditures of approximately $ 30.7 and $ 43.4 in fiscal 2026 and 2027 and thereafter, respectively. Current Restructuring Actions and Other The Company continues to analyze its cost structure and evaluate opportunities to streamline operations through a range of smaller initiatives and other cost reduction activities to optimize operations in select parts of the business and markets. The liability balances were $ 30.4 and $ 37.9 (including certain actions that were accrued during fiscal 2023) at June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. The Company currently estimates that the total remaining accrual of $ 30.4 will result in cash expenditures of approximately $ 16.7 and $ 13.7 in fiscal 2026 and 2027 and thereafter, respectively. 5. TRADE RECEIVABLES—FACTORING The Company factors a portion of its trade receivables with unrelated third-party factoring companies on both a recourse and non-recourse basis. The Company accounts for trade receivable transfers as sales and derecognizes the sold receivables from the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The net amount factored under factoring facilities was $ 211.8 and $ 195.3 as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The aggregate (gross) amount of trade receivable invoices factored on a worldwide basis amounted to $ 1,568.9 and $ 1,534.3 in fiscal 2025 and 2024, respectively. Remaining balances due from factors amounted to $ 3.8 and $ 10.0 as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and are included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

U.S. Receivables Purchase Agreement On March 19, 2019, the Company entered into an Uncommitted Receivables Purchase Agreement (the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”) with a financial institution, with an aggregate facility limit of $ 150.0 . Eligible trade receivables are purchased by the financial institution for cash at net invoice value less a factoring fee. Pursuant to Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Company acts as collections agent for the financial institution and is responsible for the collection, and remittance to the financial institution, of all customer payments related to trade receivables factored under this arrangement. For certain customer receivables factored, the Company will retain a recourse obligation of up to 10 percent of the respective invoice’s net invoice value, payable to the financial institution if the customer’s payment is not received by the contractual due date. The fair value of sold receivables approximated their book value due to their short-term nature. The Company estimated that the fair value of its servicing responsibilities was not material. European Receivables Purchase Agreement In September 2019, the Company entered into a factoring agreement with a financial institution, which allows for the transfer of receivables from certain of the Company’s European subsidiaries, in exchange for cash (the “European Receivables Purchase Agreement”).

These unfavorable rate drivers were partially offset by the following favorable rate drivers: • a 22.8 % favorable impact to the effective tax rate due to benefits realized as a result of a tax recovery benefit in Brazil (a majority of which are offset by the unrecognized tax benefit impact described above); • a 9.0 % favorable impact due to a tax deductible impairment in Switzerland on its investment in subsidiaries. The 46.5 % effective tax rate in fiscal 2024 results from reporting income before taxes and a provision for income taxes. The unfavorable impacts to the rate were primarily driven by the following items: • a 19.0 % unfavorable impact from an increase in valuation allowances recorded primarily on interest expense carryforwards; • a 13.5 % unfavorable impact due to changes to the net deferred taxes recognized on the assignment of strategic service functions from Amsterdam to Geneva, as an indirect result of the required revaluation of the original transfer of the main principal location from Geneva to Amsterdam in fiscal 2021; • an 11.8 % unfavorable impact from the revaluation of the Company’s deferred tax liabilities due to a tax rate increase enacted in Switzerland; and • a 10.2 % unfavorable impact in the foreign tax rate differential impact primarily due to fair value gains related to the investment in the Wella business taxed at a lower rate as compared to our U.S. Federal statutory rate of 21%. These unfavorable rate drivers were partially offset by the following favorable rate drivers: • a 18.5 % favorable impact as a result of the issuance of non-refundable income tax credits received from the Swiss Tax Authorities of $ 97.1 . The Company recorded a benefit for the tax credit of $ 37.8 , net of a valuation allowance; and • a 7.6 % favorable impact from a reduction of foreign tax audits due to the settlement of foreign tax audits.

In fiscal 2025, the change in the valuation allowance was primarily due to the Company recording a valuation allowance on the capital loss realized as a result of the sale of its investment in KKW Holdings during the period as well as an increase to its valuation allowance on U.S. interest expense limitation carryforwards. F-37 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of UTBs is presented below: Year Ended June 30, 2025 2024 2023 UTBs—July 1 $ 215.3 $ 235.5 $ 251.6 Additions based on tax positions related to the current year 1.2 1.3 6.7 Additions for tax positions of prior years 50.8 15.8 0.7 Reductions for tax positions of prior years ( 6.0 ) ( 19.0 ) ( 1.4 ) Settlements ( 0.3 ) ( 1.2 ) ( 4.6 ) Lapses in statutes of limitations ( 33.1 ) ( 17.8 ) ( 13.8 ) Foreign currency translation 12.9 0.7 ( 3.7 ) UTBs—June 30 $ 240.8 $ 215.3 $ 235.5 As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $ 240.8 of UTBs of which $ 157.3 represents the amount that, if recognized, would impact the effective income tax rate in future periods. As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, the liability associated with UTBs, including accrued interest and penalties, is $ 194.3 and $ 200.2 , respectively, which is recorded in Income and other taxes payable and Other non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company accrued interest of $ 7.1 , $( 2.4 ) and $ 7.8 , respectively, in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023. The Company accrued immaterial penalties in fiscal 2025 and immaterial penalties in fiscal 2024, and no penalties in fiscal 2023. The total gross accrued interest and penalties recorded in the Other noncurrent liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets related to UTBs as of June 30, 2025 and 2024 is $ 36.6 and $ 30.2 , respectively. The Company is present in approximately 40 tax jurisdictions, and at any point in time is subject to several audits at various stages of completion. As a result, the Company evaluates tax positions and establishes liabilities for UTBs that may be challenged by local authorities and may not be fully sustained, despite a belief that the underlying tax positions are fully supportable. UTBs are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted in light of changing facts and circumstances, including progress of tax audits, developments in case law, and closing of statute of limitations. Such adjustments are reflected in the provision for income taxes as appropriate. In fiscal 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized a tax benefit of $ 33.4 and $ 19.0 respectively associated with the settlement of tax audits in multiple jurisdictions and the expiration of foreign and state statutes of limitation. The Company has open tax years ranging from 2009 and forward. On the basis of information available at June 30, 2025, it is reasonably possible that a decrease of up to $ 8.2 in UTBs related to U.S. and foreign exposures may be necessary within the coming year. It is also possible the ongoing audits by tax authorities may result in increases or decreases to the balance of UTBs. Since it is common practice to extend audits beyond the Statute of Limitations, the Company is unable to predict the timing or conclusion of these audits and, accordingly, the Company is unable to estimate the amount of changes to the balance of UTBs that are reasonably possible at this time. However, the Company believes it has adequately provided for its UTBs for all open tax years in each tax jurisdiction. 15.

At that time, the P&G plans had an active legal dispute that has been resolved during fiscal 2023, resulting in $ 16.2 of additional assets being paid to the Coty plans. The projected benefit obligation has also increased $ 16.2 to reflect the liability to distribute these funds to the employees who were originally in the P&G plans. These assets were fully paid out during fiscal 2025.

The actuarial gain was partially offset by the asset loss of $ 0.3 as a result of lower than expected asset performance in Germany and Switzerland. The projected benefit obligation actuarial loss of $ 8.6 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by decreases in discount rates due to inflation since the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The actuarial loss in the projected benefit obligation was partially offset by an asset gain of $ 3.7 as a result of higher than expected asset performance in Germany, Switzerland and Belgium. During fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024, the retiree medical and life insurance plan experienced a gain on the liability of $ 1.0 and $ 4.5 , respectively, primarily driven by an increase in the discount rate, retirees and spouses waiving medical coverage, and changes in pre-65 medical claim costs. The gain was slightly offset by increases in the medical trend assumption. The accumulated benefit obligation for the U.S. defined benefit pension plans was $ 11.3 and $ 12.5 as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The accumulated benefit obligation for international defined benefit pension plans was $ 364.3 and $ 351.9 as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The goals of the investment managers include minimizing risk and achieving growth in principal value so that the purchasing power of such value is maintained with respect to the rate of inflation. The pension plan’s return on assets is based on management’s expectations of long-term average rates of return to be achieved by the underlying investment portfolios. In establishing this assumption, management considers historical and expected returns for the assets in which the plan is invested, as well as current economic and market conditions. The asset allocation decision includes consideration of future retirements, lump-sum elections, growth in the number of participants, the Company’s contributions and cash flow. These actual characteristics of the plan place certain demands upon the level, risk and required growth of trust assets. Actual asset allocation is regularly reviewed and periodically rebalanced to the strategic allocation when considered appropriate. The target asset allocations for the Company’s pension plans as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, by asset category are presented below: % of Plan Assets at Year Ended Target 2025 2024 Equity securities 50 % 49 % 35 % Fixed income securities 34.0 % 34 % 38 % Cash and other investments 16 % 17 % 27 % F-43 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) Fair Value of Plan Assets The international pension plan assets that the Company measures at fair value on a recurring basis, based on the fair value hierarchy as described in Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, as of June 30, 2025 and 2024 are presented below: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total 2025 2024 2025 2024 2025 2024 2025 2024 Equity securities $ 47.2 $ 32.8 $ — $ — $ — $ — $ 47.2 $ 32.8 Fixed income securities: Corporate securities 30.6 38.2 — — — — 30.6 38.2 Other: Cash and cash equivalents — 0.3 — — — — — 0.3 Insurance contracts and other — — — — 52.3 56.9 52.3 56.9 Total pension plan assets $ 77.8 $ 71.3 $ — $ — $ 52.3 $ 56.9 $ 130.1 $ 128.2 The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for plan assets measured at fair value: Equity securities -The fair values reflect the closing price reported on a major market where the individual securities are traded. These investments are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Corporate securities -The fair values are based on a compilation of primarily observable market information or a broker quote in a non-active market. These investments are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Cash and cash equivalents -The carrying amount approximates fair value, primarily because of the short maturity of cash equivalent instruments. These investments are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Insurance contracts and other - Includes contracts issued by insurance companies and other investments that are not publicly traded. These investments are generally classified as Level 3 as there are neither quoted prices nor other observable inputs for pricing. Insurance contracts are valued at cash surrender value, which approximates the contract fair value. Other Level 3 plan assets include real estate and other alternative investment funds requiring inputs that cannot be readily derived from observable market data due to the infrequency with which the underlying assets trade. The Company sponsors a qualified defined benefit pension plan for all eligible Swiss employees. Retirement benefits are provided based on employees’ years of service and earnings, or in accordance with applicable employee regulations. Consistent with typical Swiss practice, the pension plan is funded through a guaranteed insurance contract with an insurance company (“IC”). The IC is responsible for the investment strategy of the insurance premiums that the Company submits and does not hold individual assets per participating employer. Assets are invested in accordance with the IC’s own strategies and risk assessments. Under the terms of the contract, the interest rate as well as the capital value is guaranteed for each participant, with the IC assuming any risk to the value of the underlying assets. The IC is a member of a security fund, whose purpose is to cover any shortfall in the event they are not able to fulfill its contractual agreements. The plan assets of the Swiss plan are included in the Level 3 valuation. The Company also sponsors qualified defined benefit pension plans for certain eligible German employees. The Company’s German pension plans are partially funded with plan assets held in a Contractual Trust Arrangement, under which Company assets have been irrevocably transferred to a registered association for the exclusive purpose of securing and funding pension obligations in Germany. The association invests primarily in publicly tradable equity and fixed income securities, using a funding strategy that is reviewed on a regular basis. Plan assets are also held in the Company’s other non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans. The other non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans provide benefits primarily based on earnings and years of service and are funded in compliance with local laws and practices. The plan assets are invested in various asset classes that are expected to produce a sufficient level of diversification and investment return over the long term at an acceptable level of risk.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS Foreign Exchange Risk The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange fluctuations through its global operations. The Company may reduce its exposure to fluctuations in the cash flows associated with changes in foreign exchange rates by creating offsetting positions through the use of derivative instruments and also by designating foreign currency denominated borrowings and cross-currency swaps as hedges of net investments in foreign subsidiaries. The Company expects that through hedging, any gain or loss on the derivative instruments would generally offset the expected increase or decrease in the value of the underlying forecasted transactions. In January and April 2025, the Company entered into cross-currency swap contracts in the notional amount of $ 750.0 and $ 250.0 , respectively, and designated these cross-currency swaps as hedges of its net investment in a certain foreign subsidiary. As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, the notional amounts of the outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges were $ 17.3 and $ 22.3 , respectively. The Company also uses certain derivatives not designated as hedging instruments consisting primarily of foreign currency forward contracts and cross currency swaps to hedge intercompany transactions and foreign currency denominated external debt. Although these derivatives were not designated for hedge accounting, the overall objective of mitigating foreign currency exposure is the same for all derivative instruments. For derivatives not designated as hedging instruments, changes in fair value are recorded in the line item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations to which the derivative relates. As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, the notional amounts of these outstanding non-designated foreign currency forward contracts were $ 1,102.5 and $ 1,797.6 , respectively. F-45 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) Interest Rate Risk The Company is exposed to interest rate fluctuations related to its variable rate debt instruments. The Company reduces its exposure to fluctuations in the cash flows associated with changes in the variable interest rates by entering into offsetting positions through the use of derivative instruments, such as interest rate swap contracts. The interest rate swap contracts result in recognizing a fixed interest rate for the portion of the Company’s variable rate debt that was hedged. This will reduce the negative impact of increases in the variable rates over the term of the contracts. Hedge effectiveness of interest rate swap contracts is based on a long-haul hypothetical derivative methodology and includes all changes in value. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had interest rate swap contracts designated as effective hedges in the notional amount of $ 200.0 , which were fully terminated in December 2023 for a cash receipt of $ 2.1 . These interest rate swaps had been designated and qualified as cash flow hedges and were highly effective prior to termination. As the forecasted interest expense under the original swap agreements was still probable, the related gain in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI/L") was amortized over the remaining life of the swaps. The Company had no outstanding interest rate swap contracts as of June 30, 2025. In addition, the Company from time to time uses cross-currency swaps to economically lower the interest rate on our loan portfolio. In January and April 2025, the Company entered into cross-currency swap contracts designated as hedges of net investment in a certain foreign subsidiary to effectively reduce the interest rates on the 2030 and 2029 Dollar Senior Secured Notes from 6.625 % and 4.75 % in U.S. dollars to 2.671 % and 1.248 % in Swiss Franc, respectively. The cross-currency swaps will expire upon maturity of the respective debt. Net Investment Hedge Foreign currency gains and losses on borrowings designated as a net investment hedge, except ineffective portions, are reported in the cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”) component of AOCI/(L), along with the foreign currency translation adjustments on those investments. In January and April 2025, the Company expanded its net investment hedge activity by entering into cross-currency swaps with a gross notional value at inception of $ 750.0 and ₣ 676.9 million (Swiss Franc) and $ 250.0 and ₣ 203.6 million, respectively, maturing in July 2030 and January 2029, respectively, and designated these cross-currency swaps as hedges of its net investment in a certain foreign subsidiary. As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, the nominal exposures of foreign currency denominated borrowings designated as net investment hedges were € 1,593.9 million and € 1,611.6 million, respectively. The designated hedge amounts were considered highly effective. The gains and losses related to these instruments are included in AOCI/(L) and will remain until the sale or substantial liquidation of the underlying net investments. Forward Repurchase Contracts In June 2022, December 2022, and November 2023, the Company entered into certain forward repurchase contracts to start hedging for potential $ 200.0 , $ 196.0 , and $ 294.0 share buyback programs, in 2024, 2025, and 2026, respectively. These forward repurchase contracts are accounted for at fair value, with changes in the fair value recorded in Other expense (income), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. In February 2024, the Company elected to physically settle the June 2022 Forward for a cash payment of $ 200.0 in exchange for 27.0 million shares of its Class A Common Stock. Refer to Note 19—Equity and Convertible Preferred Stock. In December 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to extend the maturity of the December 2022 Forward by one year to fiscal 2026. Refer to Note 19—Equity and Convertible Preferred Stock. In February 2025, the Company paid $ 191.1 in Hedge Valuation Adjustments on the forward repurchase contracts. Refer to Note 19—Equity and Convertible Preferred Stock.

The amount at which the Put right and Call right can be exercised is based on a formula prescribed by the amended shareholders’ agreement as summarized in the table below, multiplied by the noncontrolling interest holder’s percentage interest in the Middle East Subsidiary. Given the provision of the Put right, the entire noncontrolling interest is redeemable outside of the Company’s control and is recorded in the Consolidated Balance F-47 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) Sheets at the estimated redemption value. The Company adjusts the redeemable noncontrolling interest to the redemption values at the end of each reporting period with changes recognized as adjustments to additional paid-in capital (“APIC”).

Treasury Stock - Share Repurchase Program Since February 2014, the Board has authorized the Company to repurchase its Class A Common Stock under approved repurchase programs. On February 3, 2016, the Board authorized the Company to repurchase up to $ 500.0 of its Class A Common Stock, and on November 13, 2023, the Board increased the Company’s share repurchase authorization by an additional $ 600.0 (the “Share Repurchase Program”). Repurchases may be made from time to time at the Company’s discretion, based on ongoing assessments of the capital needs of the business, the market price of its Class A Common Stock, and general market conditions. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has $ 796.8 remaining under the Share Repurchase Program. In June 2022, December 2022 and November 2023, the Company entered into forward repurchase contracts (the “Forward” and together the “Forwards”) with three large financial institutions (“Counterparties”) to start hedging for potential $ 200.0 , $ 196.0 , and $ 294.0 share buyback programs in 2024, 2025 and 2026, respectively. In connection with the June 2022, December 2022, and November 2023 Forward transactions, the Company incurred certain execution fees of $ 2.0 , $ 2.0 , and $ 2.9 , respectively, which were recognized as a premium to the forward price recorded at inception and amortized ratably over the contract periods. In February 2024, the Company elected to physically settle the June 2022 Forward for a cash payment of $ 200.0 in exchange for 27.0 million shares of its Class A Common Stock. The fair value of the shares repurchased was approximately $ 350.6 , which was recorded as an increase to Treasury stock in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Equity. In December 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to extend the maturity date of the December 2022 forward repurchase contracts by one year to fiscal 2026. F-49 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) As part of the Forward agreements, the Company will pay interest on the outstanding underlying notional amount of the Forwards held by the Counterparties during the contract periods. The interest rates are variable, based on the United States secured overnight funding rate (“SOFR”) plus a spread. The weighted average interest rate plus applicable spread for the December 2022 and November 2023 Forward transactions were 7.2 % and 7.6 %, respectively, as of June 30, 2025. As part of the December 2022 Forward transaction, the Counterparties purchased approximately 22.5 million shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. In addition, as part of the November 2023 Forward transaction, the Counterparties purchased 25.0 million shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. These Forward agreements require the Company to: (i) repurchase the shares on or before December 15, 2025 and December 31, 2025, respectively, at a price based on the weighted average of the daily volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) during the initial acquisition period (“Initial Price”); or (ii) at the Company’s option, pay or receive the difference between the Final Price, defined as the weighted average of the daily VWAP during the unwind period as defined in the agreement, and Initial Price of the Forwards. In addition, the Forwards include a provision for a potential true-up in cash upon specified changes in the price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock relative to the Initial Price (“Hedge Valuation Adjustment”). Such Hedge Valuation adjustment shall not result in a termination date or any adjustment of the number of Coty’s Class A Common Stock shares purchased by the Counterparties at inception. In October 2024, the price of Coty’s Class A shares declined below the threshold specified in the Hedge Valuation Adjustment for the November 2023 Forward, which resulted in a cash payment of $ 61.8 to the Counterparties. In November 2024, the Company entered into agreements with the Counterparties for a temporary contractual amendment to the Hedge Valuation Adjustment, which was effective from October 2024 through February 2025, resulting in a refund of $ 61.8 from the Counterparties. The amendment did not apply to the December 2022 Forward. In February 2025, the price of Coty’s Class A shares declined below the threshold specified in the Hedge Valuation Adjustment for the December 2022 Forward and the amended November 2023 Forward, which resulted in a cash payment of $ 191.1 to the Counterparties. This resulted in a downward adjustment to the initial price at acquisition for these Forwards. In the event the Company declares and pays any cash dividends on its Class A Common Stock, the Forward Counterparties will be entitled to such dividend payments and payable at termination of the Forwards. Since the Forwards permit a net cash settlement alternative in addition to the physical settlement, the Company accounted for the Forwards initially and subsequently at their fair value, with changes in the fair value recorded in Other expense, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. See Note 17 - Derivative Instruments for additional information. The fair values of the Company’s Forwards were $( 77.5 ) and $( 12.4 ) as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Forwards are valued principally based on the change in the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock price between the inception date and the end of the period. We classify these instruments as Level 2.

As of June 30, 2025, the total unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options, PRSUs, and restricted stock units and other share awards is $ 0.0 , $ 4.5 and $ 103.9 , respectively. The unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options, PRSUs, and restricted stock units and other share awards is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.00 , 1.62 and 2.75 years, respectively. Non-Qualified Stock Options During fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not grant any non-qualified stock option awards. These options are accounted for using equity accounting whereby the share-based compensation expense is estimated and fixed at the grant date based on the estimated value of the options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Non-qualified stock options generally become exercisable five years from the date of the grant or on a graded vesting schedule where 60 % of each award granted vests after three years , 20 % of each award granted vests after four years and 20 % of each award granted vests after five years . All grants expire ten years from the date of the grant.

Long-term Equity Program for CEO The Company’s CEO, Sue Nabi, was granted a one-time sign-on award of restricted stock units (the “Award”) on June 30, 2021. The Award vested and settled in 10.0 million shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $ 0.01 per share, on each of August 31, 2021, August 31, 2022 and August 31, 2023. The Company recognized the share-based compensation expense, on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the fair value on the grant date. The amount of compensation cost recognized at each vesting date must at least equal the portion of the award legally vested. In connection with this Award, on October 29, 2021 and September 18, 2023, JAB, the Company’s largest stockholder and a wholly-owned subsidiary of JAB Holding Company S.à r.l., completed the transfer of 10.0 million and 5.0 million shares of Class A Common Stock, respectively, to Ms. Nabi. On August 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company issued 5.0 million and 10.0 million shares of Class A Common Stock, respectively, to Ms. Nabi in connection with the third and second vesting of the Award. Pursuant to the term of the amended employment agreement on May 4, 2023, the Company granted Ms. Nabi a one-time award of 10,416,667 RSUs and will grant a total of 10,416,665 PRSUs in five equal tranches over the next five years . These two awards will vest periodically over the next seven years in accordance with the terms discussed below.

The Company will recognize approximately $ 109.6 of share-based compensation expense, on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the fair value on the grant date, net of forfeitures. The amount of compensation cost recognized at each vesting date must at least equal the portion of the award legally vested. The first and second tranche of Ms. Nabi's PRSU award of 2,083,333 shares each shall fully vest on September 1, 2026 and 2027, respectively, subject to the achievement of three-year performance objectives determined by the Board on September 28, 2023 and October 2, 2024 (the grant dates), respectively, and subject to Ms. Nabi’s continued employment. The next three tranches of 2,083,333 PRSUs will be granted on or around each September 1 of 2025 through 2027, which shall vest on the third-year anniversary of the respective grant date, subject in each case to the achievement of three-year performance objectives to be determined by the Board. The Company will recognize share-based compensation expense associated with these PRSUs, on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the fair value on the grant date when it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. F-53 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) In the event that JAB and Ms. Nabi sell shares of Common Stock for cash in a privately negotiated transaction, subject to Board approval, the Company will grant Ms. Nabi new options to acquire shares of Common Stock (the “Reload Options”) in an amount equal to the number of shares sold by Ms. Nabi in such transaction.

On July 24, 2015, Mr. Becht elected to receive payment of the phantom units in the form of shares of Class A Common Stock and the phantom units were valued at $ 8.0 . The phantom units vested on the fifth anniversary of the grant date and remain outstanding as of June 30, 2025. 21. NET INCOME (LOSS) ATTRIBUTABLE TO COTY INC. PER COMMON SHARE Net (loss) income attributable to Coty Inc. common stockholders per common share (“basic EPS”) is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to Coty Inc. less any dividends on Series B Preferred Stock by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. F-55 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) Net (loss) income attributable to Coty Inc. common stockholders per common share assuming dilution (“diluted EPS”) is computed by adjusting the numerator used in basic EPS to add back the dividends applicable to the Series B Preferred Stock, if dilutive, and using the basic EPS weighted-average number of common shares and the effect of potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period as the denominator. Potentially dilutive securities consist of non-qualified stock options, Series A Preferred Stock, RSUs, unvested restricted stock awards and potential shares resulting from the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock as of June 30, 2025, 2024 and 2023. Net (loss) income attributable to Coty Inc. is adjusted through the application of the two-class method of income per share to reflect a portion of the periodic adjustment of the redemption value in excess of fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests. There is no excess of redemption value over fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023. In addition, there are no participating securities requiring the application of the two-class method of income per share. Reconciliation between the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations is presented below: Year Ended June 30, 2025 2024 2023 Amounts attributable to Coty Inc.: Net (loss) income $ ( 367.9 ) $ 89.4 $ 508.2 Convertible Series B Preferred Stock dividends ( 13.2 ) ( 13.2 ) ( 13.2 ) Net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders ( 381.1 ) 76.2 495.0 Net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders $ ( 381.1 ) $ 76.2 $ 495.0 Weighted-average common shares outstanding: Weighted-average common shares outstanding—Basic 870.9 874.4 849.0 Effect of dilutive stock options and Series A Preferred Stock (a) — 0.1 — Effect of restricted stock, PRSUs and RSUs (b) — 8.9 13.8 Effect of Convertible Series B Preferred Stock (c) — — 23.7 Effect of Forward Repurchase Contracts (d) — — — Weighted-average common shares and common share equivalents outstanding—Diluted 870.9 883.4 886.5 Earnings (losses) per common share (Losses) earnings per common share - basic $ ( 0.44 ) $ 0.09 $ 0.58 (Losses) earnings per common share - diluted (e) $ ( 0.44 ) $ 0.09 $ 0.57 (a) As of June 30, 2025, 2024, and 2023, outstanding stock options and Series A Preferred Stock with purchase or conversion rights to purchase 3.5 million, 2.8 million, and 4.8 million weighted average anti-dilutive shares of Common Stock, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS. (b) As of June 30, 2025, 2024, and 2023, there were 11.6 million, 1.0 million, and 3.2 million weighted average anti-dilutive RSUs, respectively, excluded from the computation of diluted EPS. (c ) As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, no dilutive shares of Convertible Series B Preferred Stock, respectively, were included in the computation of diluted EPS as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2023, 23.7 dilutive shares of Convertible Series B Preferred Stock were included in the computation of diluted EPS as their inclusion would be dilutive. (d) For the twelve months ended June 30, 2025, 2024, and 2023, potential shares for the Forward Repurchase Contracts were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. (e) Diluted EPS is adjusted by the effect of dilutive securities, including awards under the Company's equity compensation plans, the convertible Series B Preferred Stock, and the Forward Repurchase Contracts. When calculating any potential dilutive effect of stock options, Series A Preferred Stock, restricted stock, PRSUs and RSUs, the Company uses the treasury method and the if-converted method for the Convertible Series B Preferred Stock and the Forward Repurchase Contracts. The treasury method typically does not adjust the net income attributable to Coty Inc., while the if-converted method requires an adjustment to reverse the impact of the preferred stock dividends of $ 13.2 , $ 13.2 , and $ 13.2 , respectively, and to reverse the impact of fair market value losses/(gains) for contracts with the option to settle in shares or cash of $ 248.1 , $ 73.4 , and $( 101.8 ), respectively, if dilutive, for the twelve months ended June 30, 2025, 2024, and 2023 on net income applicable to common stockholders during the period. F-56 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) 22. LEGAL AND OTHER CONTINGENCIES Legal Matters The Company is involved, from time to time, in various litigation, administrative and other legal proceedings, including regulatory actions, incidental or related to its business, including consumer class or collective actions, personal injury (mostly involving allegations related to alleged asbestos in the Company’s talc-based cosmetic products as described below), intellectual property, competition, compliance and advertising claims litigation and disputes, among others (collectively, “Legal Proceedings”). While the Company cannot predict any final outcomes relating thereto, management believes that the outcome of current Legal Proceedings will not have a material effect upon its business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or the trading price of the Company’s securities. However, management’s assessment of the Company’s current Legal Proceedings is ongoing, and could change in light of the discovery of additional facts with respect to Legal Proceedings not presently known to the Company, further legal analysis, or determinations by judges, arbitrators, juries or other finders of fact or deciders of law which are not in accord with management’s evaluation of the probable liability or outcome of such Legal Proceedings. From time to time, the Company is in discussions with regulators, including discussions initiated by the Company, about actual or potential violations of law in order to remediate or mitigate associated legal or compliance risks and liabilities or penalties. As the outcomes of such proceedings are unpredictable, the Company can give no assurance that the results of any such proceedings will not materially affect its reputation, business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or the trading price of its securities. Cosmetic Talcum Powder Matters. The Company has been named as a defendant in numerous civil actions alleging that certain cosmetic talcum powder products sold by the Company were contaminated with asbestos leading to bodily injury. Most of these actions involve a number of co-defendants and, to date, many such actions have been resolved by settlement or other resolution acceptable to the Company. In each of the previous fiscal years the value of settlements, both individually and in the aggregate, has not been material but, due to the rising number of filed and pending cases against the Company, as well as the evolving litigation landscape, settlement values and other costs associated with these cases have increased and are likely to increase in the future. The Company believes that a limited portion of its costs incurred in defending and resolving certain of these claims will be covered by insurance policies issued by several insurance carriers, subject to deductibles, exclusions, retentions and policy limits and, in some cases, there may be indemnity obligations of third parties. While the Company and its legal counsel intend to continue to defend these cases vigorously, there can be no assurances regarding the ultimate resolution of these matters, individually or collectively. The Company has accrued for such litigation when the likelihood of loss is probable and a reasonable estimate of such loss can be made, and such accruals are not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. However, the range of reasonably possible losses in excess of accrued liabilities currently cannot be reasonably estimated. Brazilian Tax Assessments The Company’s Brazilian subsidiaries receive tax assessments from local, state and federal tax authorities in Brazil from time to time. Current open tax assessments as of June 30, 2025 are: F-57 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) Assessment received Type of assessment Type of Tax Tax period impacted Estimated amount, including interest and penalties as of June 30, 2025 Aug-20 State sales tax credits, which the Treasury Office of the State of Goiás considers as improperly registered ICMS 2017-2019 R$ 726.5 million (approximately $ 132.6 ) Oct-20 Federal excise taxes, which the Treasury Office of the Brazil’s Internal Revenue Service considers as improperly calculated IPI 2016-2017 R$ 469.4 million (approximately $ 85.7 ) Nov-22 IPI 2018-2019 R$ 639.5 million (approximately $ 116.7 ) Mar-24 IPI 2020 R$ 36.0 million (approximately $ 6.6 ) Nov-20 State sales taxes, which the Treasury Office of the State of Minas Gerais considers as improperly calculated ICMS 2016-2019 R$ 242.4 million (approximately $ 44.2 ) Jun-21 State sales tax, which the Treasury Office of the State of Goiás considers as improperly calculated (a) ICMS 2016-2020 R$ 56.9 million (approximately $ 10.4 ) (a) During August 2025, the administrative case was decided in Coty’s favor. The tax authorities have a month to appeal the decision. For the Goiás State tax ICMS assessment received in August 2020, the Company has in parallel a judicial case about an additional claim for fees over the tax incentive ("the Protege Fee") wherein the Company asserts such fee was not enforceable against Coty due to its prior contractual agreement with the Goiás State, for which the Company received an unfavorable first and second instances ruling. In the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company filed appeals to be remitted to the third instance Brazilian Superior Court of Justice and, in parallel, filed a motion to grant the suspension of the state's ability to collect the above tax incentives to the Goiás State Court as the case is under discussion. The motion to grant the suspension of the state’s ability to collect the above tax incentives was dismissed and, in the last quarter of fiscal 2024, a judge of the Superior Court of Justice ruled against the Company. The Company filed an interlocutory appeal for the full bench of judges on the Superior Court of Justice to review the case. The case was heard in the first half of the current fiscal year, and is now expected to conclude in the first half of the next fiscal year. The Company has been required to provide surety bonds of R$ 148.8 million (approximately $ 27.2 ) and cash deposits of R$ 163.3 million (approximately $ 29.8 ) as of June 30, 2025, to guarantee payment if the case is resolved against Coty. The cash deposits are included in the Other Noncurrent Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. In relation to the judicial case for the Goiás State tax ICMS assessment received in August 2020, an additional case has moved into the judicial court in October 2024, relating to a tax assessment demanding payment of the underlying ICMS taxes due to non-payment of the Protege Fee. The case is running in parallel of the Protege Fee case above. In the third quarter of fiscal 2025, the Goiás State filed a tax enforcement against the Company to collect the ICMS taxes. In response to the enforcement, the Company has filed a motion to stay against the Goiás State seeking the dismissal of the ICMS tax collection and is currently awaiting a decision from the tax authorities. The Company has been required to provide surety bonds of R$ 446.2 million (approximately $ 81.4 ) as of June 30, 2025, to guarantee payment if the case is resolved against Coty. The Minas Gerais State tax ICMS assessment received in November 2020 is currently at the judicial process. The Company has been required to provide surety bonds of R$ 347.4 million (approximately $ 63.4 ) as of June 30, 2025, to guarantee payment if the case is resolved against the Company. All other cases are currently in the administrative process. The Company expects that cases may move from the administrative to the judicial process in case Coty does not receive a favorable decision at the administrative level, although the exact timing is uncertain. For cases in the judicial process, the Company will be required to make a judicial deposit or enter into a surety bond for the disputed tax assessment, interest and penalties. The judicial process in Brazil is likely to take a number of years to conclude. The Company is seeking favorable judicial and administrative decisions on the tax enforcement actions filed by the tax authorities for these assessments. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses and it has not recognized a loss for these assessments as the Company does not believe a loss is probable. F-58 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) Other Commitments At June 30, 2025, the aggregate future minimum purchase obligations, which include commitments to purchase inventory and other services agreements, were as follows: Fiscal Year Ending June 30, Purchase Obligations 2026 $ 741.6 2027 80.1 2028 36.0 2029 0.1 2030 — Thereafter — Total $ 857.8 23. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Performance Guarantee In connection with the sales of certain businesses, the Company has assigned its rights and obligations under a real estate lease to JAB Partners LLP. The remaining term of this lease is approximately six years . While the Company is no longer the primary obligor under this lease, the lessor has not completely released the Company from its obligation, and holds it secondarily liable in the event that the assignee defaults on the lease. The maximum potential future payments that the Company could be required to make, if the assignee was to default as of June 30, 2025, would be approximately $ 3.3 . The Company has assessed the probability of default by the assignee and has determined it to be remote. Equity Transfer Agreement In connection with the Award granted to the Company’s CEO on June 30, 2021, JAB Beauty B.V. agreed to transfer to her (either directly or through contributing to the Company) one-half of the total number of shares of Common Stock owed to her when the Award vests, which has now been fulfilled. See Note 20—Share-Based Compensation Plans for more information on the Award. Relationship with KKR As noted in Note 19—Equity and Convertible Preferred Stock, in fiscal 2020, KKR Aggregator purchased Series B Preferred Stock. This preferred stock conveyed to KKR Aggregator the right to designate two directors to the Company’s Board of Directors and voting rights on an as-converted basis. As a result of various conversions/exchanges described below, KKR no longer holds any preferred stock of the Company and no longer has the right to designate any directors to the Company's Board of Directors. From time to time, certain funds held by KKR may hold the Company’s Senior Secured and Unsecured Notes (as defined in Note 12—Debt). These funds may receive principal and interest payments on the same terms as other investors in the Company’s Senior Secured and Unsecured Notes. Wella As of June 30, 2025, Coty owned 25.84 % of the Wella Company as an equity investment and performs certain services to Wella. Refer to Note 10—Equity Investments.

In relation to this contingent consideration agreement, the Company recognized gains of $ 10.1 , $ 19.7 , and $ 30.8 , during fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, reported in Other expense (income), net. In connection with the sale of the Wella Business, the Company and Wella entered into a Transitional Services Agreement (“TSA”) and the Company performed services for Wella in exchange for related service fees. The Company and Wella have mutually agreed to end the contracted TSA services on January 31, 2022, as well as previously existing distribution services in Brazil during fiscal 2024. The Company and Wella continue to have in place manufacturing arrangements to facilitate the Wella Business transition in the U.S. and Brazil. TSA fees and other fees earned were $ 0.2 and $ 5.0 , respectively, for the year ended F-59 COTY INC. & SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($ in millions, except per share data) June 30, 2025, $ 2.2 and $ 10.0 , respectively, for the year ended June 30, 2024, and $ 3.3 and $ 7.6 , respectively for the year ended June 30, 2023. Fees are principally invoiced on a cost plus basis and were included in Selling, general and administrative expenses and Cost of sales, respectively, in the Company's Statement of Operations. The Company also entered into an agreement with Wella to provide management, consulting and financial services to Wella and its direct and indirect divisions, subsidiaries, parent entities and controlled affiliates. Fees earned and reflected in Other expense (income), net in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023 were $ 1.2 , $ 1.2 , and $ 2.7 , respectively.

Coty will continue to recognize the share-based compensation expense for Wella employees until the existing equity awards reach their vesting date. For the years ended June 30, 2025, 2024 and 2023, Coty recorded $ 0.7 , $ 2.1 , and $ 4.6 of share-based compensation expense related to Wella employees, which was presented as part of Other expense (income), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company has certain sublease arrangements with Wella after the sale. For the years ended June 30, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company reported sublease income of $ 7.6 , $ 8.2 , and $ 9.1 from Wella.
