In accordance with Mexican law, the legal reserve must be increased by 5% of annual net profits until it reaches 20% of the capital stock amount. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s legal reserve amounted to Ps. 1,798,384 and Ps. 2,139,007, respectively, and was classified into retained earnings in consolidated equity. As the legal reserve reached 20% of the capital stock amount, no additional increases were required in 2024, 2023 and 2022. This reserve is not available for dividends but may be used to reduce a deficit or may be transferred to stated capital. Other appropriations of profits require the vote of the Company’s stockholders.

In April 2022, the Company’s stockholders approved the payment of a dividend of Ps.0.35 per CPO and Ps.0.002991452991 per share of Series “A,” “B,” “D” and “L” Shares, not in the form of a CPO unit, which was paid in cash in May 2022, in the aggregate amount of Ps.1,053,392.

In April 2023, the Company’s stockholders approved the payment of a dividend of Ps.0.35 per CPO and Ps.0.002991452991 per share of Series “A,” “B,” “D” and “L” Shares, not in the form of a CPO unit, which was paid in cash in May 2023, in the aggregate amount of Ps.1,027,354.

In April 2024, the Company’s stockholders approved the payment of a dividend of Ps.0.35 per CPO and Ps.0.002991452991 per share of Series “A,” “B,” “D” and “L” Shares, not in the form of a CPO unit, which was paid in cash in May 2024, in the aggregate amount of Ps.1,018,954.

Dividends, either in cash or in other forms, paid by the Mexican companies in the Group will be subject to income tax if the dividends are paid from earnings that have not been subject to Mexican income tax computed on an individual company basis under the provisions of the Mexican Income Tax Law. In this case, dividends will be taxable by multiplying such dividends by a 1.4286 factor and applying to the resulting amount the income tax rate of 30%. This income tax will be paid by the company paying the dividends.

In addition, the entities that distribute dividends to its stockholders who are individuals or foreign residents must withhold 10% thereof for income tax purposes, which will be paid in Mexico. The foregoing will not be applicable when distributed dividends arise from the “taxed net earnings account” computed on an individual company basis generated through December 31, 2013.

As of December 31, 2024, cumulative earnings that have been subject to income tax and can be distributed by the Company free of Mexican income tax amounted to Ps.94,198,753.
