For example, on December 12, 2023, we announced that JSC Kyivstar’s network had been the target of a widespread external cyberattack causing a technical failure. This resulted in a temporary disruption of JSC Kyivstar's network and services, interrupting the provision of voice and data connectivity on mobile and fixed networks, international roaming, and SMS services, among others, for JSC Kyivstar customers in Ukraine and abroad.

All investigations were concluded in 2024, and have resulted in an in-depth analysis into details of how the attack was executed and how this can be prevented in the future. JSC Kyivstar has remediation and mitigation actions in place to address current risks and establish a robust framework to manage evolving cyber threats, protect business continuity and maintain customer trust by investing in immediate response actions, enhanced security infrastructure, proactive threat management, compliance with cybersecurity regulations and standards, employee awareness, and long-term adaptive measures.

The registered office of the Company is Victoria Place, 31 Victoria Street, Hamilton, HM10, Bermuda. The principal place of business is located at Index Towers (East Tower), Unit 517, Dubai (DIFC), United Arab Emirates.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The Company was formed for the purpose of becoming the ultimate parent company following the transactions contemplated in the business combination agreement, dated March 18, 2025 (the "Business Combination Agreement" or the "BCA"), by and among the Company, Cohen Circle Acquisition Corp. I ("CC" or "Cohen Circle"), a special purpose acquisition company ("SPAC"), VEON Amsterdam B.V., Kyivstar Holdings B.V. (formerly VEON Holdings B.V.), and Varna Merger Sub Corp. ("Varna Merger Sub"). The Company’s Common Shares and Warrants are listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbols "KYIV" and "KYIVW," respectively. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">On August 14, 2025, the Company and Cohen Circle consummated the Business Combination Agreement, as further explained below, pursuant to which (i) VEON Amsterdam B.V. contributed their shares in Kyivstar Holdings B.V. to the Company in exchange of the Company’s shares at a pre-determined exchange ratio, becoming the Company’s controlling shareholder (the "Capital Reorganization") and (ii) Cohen Circle’s shareholders contributed the net assets of Cohen Circle, which primarily consisted of cash and marketable securities held in trust and certain warrant liabilities in exchange for the Company’s shares via a merger with Varna Merger Sub (the "SPAC Merger").

Refer to Major developments during the year ended December 31, 2025 below and <a href="#i69497bc005454953a45696866c25e3e8_172" style="color:#0000ff;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline">Note 9</a> for further details. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Kyivstar Group’s operations include the operations of the following entities (i) Kyivstar Group Ltd., (ii) Kyivstar Cayman Corp., (iii) Kyivstar Holdings B.V. ("Kyivstar Holdings") and (iv) JSC Kyivstar and its subsidiaries ("Kyivstar"). </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">In April 2025, VEON Ltd. undertook a pre-transaction reorganization of Kyivstar Holdings (the "Reorganization"). This Reorganization was consummated through a Dutch legal demerger, as a result of which Kyivstar Holdings, which remains domiciled in the Netherlands, holds only Kyivstar and its subsidiaries and certain other select assets and liabilities. The Reorganization was completed on April 8, 2025. As mentioned above, following the Capital Reorganization, the Company became the parent of Kyivstar Holdings and the holding company of all operations of Kyivstar Group. </div><div>Kyivstar Holdings was established as a private company with limited liability under the laws of the Netherlands on June 29, 2009. The registered office and principal place of business of Kyivstar Holdings B.V. is located at Claude Debussylaan 88, 1082 MD Amsterdam, the Netherlands. VEON Amsterdam B.V. is the Company's immediate parent, with VEON Ltd. as the ultimate controlling shareholder or parent.</div><div> </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The main operating company in Kyivstar Group is JSC Kyivstar ("Kyivstar"). JSC Kyivstar was established and registered on September 3, 1997 under the laws of Ukraine. JSC Kyivstar’s registered legal address is at 53 Degtyarivska St. Kyiv 03113 Ukraine. JSC Kyivstar’s head office is located at the registered legal address and the principal place of JSC Kyivstar's business is its registered legal address. JSC Kyivstar has a main office in Kyiv, Ukraine.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">JSC Kyivstar provides mobile connectivity services on 2G, 3G and 4G/LTE networks.

Accordingly, the SPAC Merger has been accounted for as the equivalent of the Company issuing shares for the net assets of Cohen Circle, accompanied by a Capital Reorganization. Therefore, these annual consolidated financial statements have been presented as a continuation of Kyivstar Holdings and its subsidiaries as Kyivstar Holdings is considered the accounting predecessor. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">These annual consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, effective at the time of preparing the annual consolidated financial statements. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical basis, except for certain financial instruments and other items that are measured at fair value, as disclosed in the relevant accounting policies. The consolidated income statement has been presented based on the nature of the expense, other than ‘Selling, general and administrative expenses’, which has been presented based on the function of the expense. Additional information on the nature of expenses is provided where relevant in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Certain amounts reported in the annual consolidated income statement, statement of financial position and cash flows have been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The annual consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Due to the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, material uncertainties affecting the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern are discussed in detail at the end of this section. </div><div style="text-align:justify">These annual consolidated financial statements do not necessarily reflect what the consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows would have been had the Group operated as a separate, independent legal entity during the periods presented. Further, these annual consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of the Group's future performance, financial position, or cash flows.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Prior to the consummation of the SPAC Merger and Capital Reorganization, the Group utilized combined carve-out accounting principles to prepare its financial statements. The carve-out financial statements were derived from the combined financial statements and accounting records of the entities that remained with the accounting predecessor subsequent to the Capital Reorganization. Under these carve-out principles, the financial statements reflected allocations of certain corporate expenses, assets, and liabilities that were not exclusively related to the Group 's operations.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">These allocations were made on a basis management considered reasonable under the circumstances; however, they may not be indicative of the actual expenses that would have been incurred or the results that would have been achieved had the Group operated as a standalone entity during these periods. The allocated amounts may not reflect expenses the Group would have incurred on a standalone basis due to economies of scale, differing resource requirements, and other operational factors.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Allocated expenses primarily related to: (a) management services from Kyivstar's CEO and CFO under dual-employment arrangements, (b) VEON Executive Committee services, (c) Oracle ERP and software licenses under global contracts, and (d) shared services including tax, HR, corporate affairs, and financial reporting functions. Allocations were based on specifically identified costs, allocated based on revenues or usage-based methodologies considered reasonable by management. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the total expenses allocated from VEON and affiliated entities amounted to US$-, US$22, and US$10, respectively.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Management believes it is not practicable to estimate the actual costs that would have been incurred had the Group been a standalone company during the periods presented. Additionally, these allocations may not be indicative of the expenses that the Group will incur in the future or would have incurred if the Group had obtained these services from an unrelated third party.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Subsequent to the closing of the SPAC Merger and Capital Reorganization, the annual consolidated financial statements are prepared based on the actual results of operations and financial position of the consolidated group as an independent company.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The comparative financial information in relation to the shares and basic and diluted earnings per share prior to the Business Combination have been retroactively recast as shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the Capital Reorganization. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The functional currency of Kyivstar is Ukrainian Hryvnia ("UAH"), the currency of the primary economic environment in which Kyivstar operates. The annual consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars ("U.S. dollar" or "US$"). In these Notes, U.S. dollar amounts are presented in millions, except for share amounts and as otherwise indicated.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">For the purpose of these annual consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities measured in the functional currency are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date, whereas income and expenses are generally translated into U.S. dollars at historical monthly average exchange rates. Foreign currency translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating financial statements into U.S. dollars are reported in other comprehensive income and accumulated within a separate component of Equity. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The annual consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Currently, we have 22.4 million subscribers in Ukraine, where they are supported by approximately 5,189 employees. Kyivstar Group’s priority is to protect the safety and well-being of our employees and their families. We have developed and, in some cases, implemented additional contingency plans to relocate work and/or personnel who are integral to the provision of essential communication services to other geographies and add new locations, as appropriate. As of March 16, 2026, most of our Ukraine subsidiary’s employees remain in the country.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The war has resulted in events and conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern:</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•We may need to record future impairment charges in Ukraine, which could be material, if the war continues or escalates and/or due to macroeconomic conditions.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•As of March 16, 2026, the Company continues to conclude that neither VEON Ltd. nor any of its subsidiaries is targeted by sanctions imposed by any of the United States, European Union (and individual EU member states) and the United Kingdom. However, the interpretation and enforcement of these sanctions and counter-sanctions may result in unanticipated outcomes and could give rise to material uncertainties, which could complicate our business decisions. For example, to protect U.S. foreign policy and national security interests, the U.S. government has broad discretion to at times impose a broad range of extraterritorial "secondary" sanctions under which non-U.S. persons carrying out certain activities may be penalized or designated as sanctioned parties, even if the activities have no ties, contact with, or nexus to the United States or the U.S. financial system at all. These secondary sanctions could be imposed on the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries if they were to engage in activity that the U.S. government determined was undertaken knowingly and rose to the level of material or significant support to, for, or on behalf of certain sanctioned parties.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•Ukraine has also implemented and may implement further sanctions or measures on individuals or entities with close ties to Russia, which may negatively impact Kyivstar if VEON is considered by local Ukrainian authorities as being a company controlled by sanctioned persons. In October 2023, VEON received notification from local custodian that the following percentages of the corporate rights in our Ukrainian subsidiaries have been frozen: (i) 47.85% of Kyivstar, (ii) 100% of Ukraine Tower Company ("UTC"), a related party to the Company, (iii) 100% of Kyivstar.Tech, and (iv) 69.99% of Helsi Ukraine. On November 29, 2024, the Shevchenkivskyi District Court of Kyiv ruled in favor of a request to unfreeze 47.85% of VEON’s corporate rights in Kyivstar and 100% of VEON’s corporate rights in its other Ukrainian subsidiaries. The decision fully removes the restrictions on VEON’s corporate rights imposed by Ukrainian courts on its wholly owned Kyivstar and other Ukrainian subsidiaries. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Management has taken actions to address the events and conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern:</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•We have implemented business continuity plans to address known contingency scenarios to ensure that we have adequate processes and practices in place to protect the safety of our people and to handle potential impacts to our operations in Ukraine. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•The Company actively engages with stakeholders, including suppliers, customers, and regulatory authorities, to proactively address potential disruptions.

Management is engaging with authorities in Ukraine to address any concerns they have about the ownership and management of Kyivstar and to provide all necessary assurances to confirm that sanctioned individuals, including any beneficial owners of LPE Middle East Limited (formerly L1T VIP Holdings S.à r.l., "LetterOne"), do not participate in the management of Kyivstar.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•On October 30, 2023, VEON announced that two appeals were filed with the relevant Ukrainian courts, challenging the freezing of the corporate rights in Kyivstar and UTC, noting that corporate rights in Kyivstar and UTC belong exclusively to VEON, and that their full or partial freezing or seizure directly violates the rights of VEON and its international debt and equity investors, and requesting the lifting of the freezing of its corporate rights in Kyivstar and UTC. In December 2023, the court rejected the Company’s appeals. On June 4, 2024, the CEO of VEON, in his capacity as a shareholder of VEON, filed a motion with Shevchenkivskiy District Court of Kyiv requesting cancellation of the freeze of corporate rights in the VEON group's subsidiary Ukraine Tower Company. On June 26, 2024, the motion was supplemented to request cancellation of the freezing of corporate rights in the VEON group's other Ukrainian subsidiaries: Kyivstar, Kyivstar.Tech and Helsi Ukraine. VEON continued its significant government affairs efforts to protect our assets in Ukraine. After the successful lifting of the court freeze of Kyivstar's shares on November 29, 2024, VEON is working with its local custodian to remove all remaining restrictions on Kyivstar and its Ukrainian subsidiaries corporate rights.

Management expects the actions it has taken or will take will mitigate the risk associated with the identified events and conditions. However, given the uncertainty and exogenous nature of the ongoing war and potential future imposed sanctions as well as potential new counter-sanctions, management concluded that a material uncertainty remains related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, such that it may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As a U.S. SEC registrant, the Company is required to have its financial statements audited in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") standards.

Non-compliance with such rules and laws may cause Group to be subject to claims, some of which may relate to the developing markets and evolving fiscal and regulatory environments in which the Group operates. In the opinion of management, Group’s liability, if any, in all pending litigation, other legal proceeding or other matters, other than what is discussed in this Note, will not have a material effect upon the financial condition, results of operations or liquidity of the Group. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Tax risks</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The tax legislation in Ukraine is unpredictable and gives rise to significant uncertainties, which could complicate our tax planning and business decisions. Tax laws in Ukraine have been in force for a relatively short period of time as compared to tax laws in more developed market economies. Tax authorities are often less advanced in their interpretation of tax laws, as well as in their enforcement and tax collection methods. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Any sudden and unforeseen amendments of tax laws or changes in the tax authorities’ interpretations of the respective tax laws and/or double tax treaties, could have a material adverse effect on our future results of operations, cash flows or the amounts of dividends available for distribution to shareholders in a particular period (e.g. introduction of transfer pricing rules, Controlled Foreign Operation ("CFC") legislation and more strict tax residency rules). </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Management believes that the Group has paid or accrued all taxes that are applicable. Where uncertainty exists, the Group has accrued tax liabilities based on management’s best estimate. From time to time, we may also identify tax contingencies for which we have not recorded an accrual. Such unaccrued tax contingencies could materialize and require us to pay additional amounts of tax.

The expected resolution of uncertain tax positions is based upon management’s judgment of the likelihood of sustaining a position taken through tax audits, tax courts and/or arbitration, if necessary. Circumstances and interpretations of the amount or likelihood of sustaining a position may change through the settlement process. Furthermore, the resolution of uncertain tax positions is not always within the control of the Group, and it is often dependent on the efficiency of the legal processes in the relevant taxing jurisdictions in which the Group operates. Issues can, and often do, take many years to resolve. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt">Recoverability of deferred tax assets </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that the assets will be realized. Significant judgment is required to determine the amount that can be recognized and depends foremost on the expected timing, level of taxable profits, tax planning strategies and the existence of taxable temporary differences. When an entity has a history of recent losses, the deferred tax asset arising from unused tax losses is recognized only to the extent that there is convincing evidence that sufficient future taxable profit will be generated. Estimated future taxable profit is not considered such evidence unless that entity has demonstrated the ability by generating significant taxable profit for the current year or there are certain other events providing sufficient evidence of future taxable profit. New transactions and the introduction of new tax rules may also affect judgments due to uncertainty concerning the interpretation of the rules and any transitional rules.</div><div style="text-align:justify">Pillar Two legislation has been substantively enacted in the Netherlands, the UAE and Cyprus but not in Ukraine and Uzbekistan.

<div style="text-align:justify">GOING CONCERN</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">As of March 16, 2026, the war in Ukraine is ongoing, millions of people have fled Ukraine, and the country has sustained significant damage to infrastructure and assets. Currently, we have 22.4 million subscribers in Ukraine, where they are supported by approximately 5,189 employees. Kyivstar Group’s priority is to protect the safety and well-being of our employees and their families. We have developed and, in some cases, implemented additional contingency plans to relocate work and/or personnel who are integral to the provision of essential communication services to other geographies and add new locations, as appropriate. As of March 16, 2026, most of our Ukraine subsidiary’s employees remain in the country.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The war has resulted in events and conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern:</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•We may need to record future impairment charges in Ukraine, which could be material, if the war continues or escalates and/or due to macroeconomic conditions.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•As of March 16, 2026, the Company continues to conclude that neither VEON Ltd. nor any of its subsidiaries is targeted by sanctions imposed by any of the United States, European Union (and individual EU member states) and the United Kingdom. However, the interpretation and enforcement of these sanctions and counter-sanctions may result in unanticipated outcomes and could give rise to material uncertainties, which could complicate our business decisions. For example, to protect U.S. foreign policy and national security interests, the U.S. government has broad discretion to at times impose a broad range of extraterritorial "secondary" sanctions under which non-U.S. persons carrying out certain activities may be penalized or designated as sanctioned parties, even if the activities have no ties, contact with, or nexus to the United States or the U.S. financial system at all. These secondary sanctions could be imposed on the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries if they were to engage in activity that the U.S. government determined was undertaken knowingly and rose to the level of material or significant support to, for, or on behalf of certain sanctioned parties.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•Ukraine has also implemented and may implement further sanctions or measures on individuals or entities with close ties to Russia, which may negatively impact Kyivstar if VEON is considered by local Ukrainian authorities as being a company controlled by sanctioned persons. In October 2023, VEON received notification from local custodian that the following percentages of the corporate rights in our Ukrainian subsidiaries have been frozen: (i) 47.85% of Kyivstar, (ii) 100% of Ukraine Tower Company ("UTC"), a related party to the Company, (iii) 100% of Kyivstar.Tech, and (iv) 69.99% of Helsi Ukraine. On November 29, 2024, the Shevchenkivskyi District Court of Kyiv ruled in favor of a request to unfreeze 47.85% of VEON’s corporate rights in Kyivstar and 100% of VEON’s corporate rights in its other Ukrainian subsidiaries. The decision fully removes the restrictions on VEON’s corporate rights imposed by Ukrainian courts on its wholly owned Kyivstar and other Ukrainian subsidiaries. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Management has taken actions to address the events and conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern:</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•We have implemented business continuity plans to address known contingency scenarios to ensure that we have adequate processes and practices in place to protect the safety of our people and to handle potential impacts to our operations in Ukraine. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•The Company actively engages with stakeholders, including suppliers, customers, and regulatory authorities, to proactively address potential disruptions. Diversification of supply chains and markets to reduce dependency on regions affected by the war is implemented where possible. Management also continues to review and update risk management policies to enhance resilience against the volatility stemming from the war.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•The Company continues to fund its operations for the next twelve months primarily through a combination of existing liquidity and anticipated proceeds from its customers, including cash & cash equivalents maintained outside Ukraine. As of December 31, 2025, the Company holds US$247 in cash and cash equivalents and US$208 of other liquid financial assets, providing a total available funding of approximately US$455, which significantly exceeds the Company’s projected operating expenditures for the next twelve months. The Company has no material unrelated party debts and therefore no unrelated party debt covenants. The resilience of the Company and its ability to generate strong cash flows has been proven through the full-scale war since 2022.</div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-indent:-18pt">•Management is actively monitoring any new developments in applicable sanctions to ensure that we continue to be in compliance and to evaluate any potential impact on the Company’s financial performance, operations, and governance. Management has actively engaged with sanctions authorities where appropriate. Management is engaging with authorities in Ukraine to address any concerns they have about the ownership and management of Kyivstar and to provide all necessary assurances to confirm that sanctioned individuals, including any beneficial owners of LPE Middle East Limited (formerly L1T VIP Holdings S.à r.l., "LetterOne"), do not participate in the management of Kyivstar.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•On October 30, 2023, VEON announced that two appeals were filed with the relevant Ukrainian courts, challenging the freezing of the corporate rights in Kyivstar and UTC, noting that corporate rights in Kyivstar and UTC belong exclusively to VEON, and that their full or partial freezing or seizure directly violates the rights of VEON and its international debt and equity investors, and requesting the lifting of the freezing of its corporate rights in Kyivstar and UTC. In December 2023, the court rejected the Company’s appeals. On June 4, 2024, the CEO of VEON, in his capacity as a shareholder of VEON, filed a motion with Shevchenkivskiy District Court of Kyiv requesting cancellation of the freeze of corporate rights in the VEON group's subsidiary Ukraine Tower Company. On June 26, 2024, the motion was supplemented to request cancellation of the freezing of corporate rights in the VEON group's other Ukrainian subsidiaries: Kyivstar, Kyivstar.Tech and Helsi Ukraine. VEON continued its significant government affairs efforts to protect our assets in Ukraine. After the successful lifting of the court freeze of Kyivstar's shares on November 29, 2024, VEON is working with its local custodian to remove all remaining restrictions on Kyivstar and its Ukrainian subsidiaries corporate rights. VEON is pursuing steps to meet the conditions required by the local custodian to lift the stipulated freeze.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•On August 14, 2025, VEON closed the previously announced business combination agreement between Kyivstar Group Ltd. and Cohen Circle. In connection with the business combination agreement, Kyivstar Group Ltd. acquired all of the issued and </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify">outstanding shares of Kyivstar Holdings B.V. from VEON Amsterdam B.V. Following the closing of the BCA, on August 15, 2025, Kyivstar Group Ltd.’s Common Shares and Warrants commenced trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market (the "Listing") under the symbols "KYIV" and "KYIVW," respectively, making the Company the first and only pure-play Ukrainian investment opportunity in U.S. stock markets. The Listing has broadened the Company’s US and international shareholder base with over 10% of the Company's shares being traded publicly on the Nasdaq Global Select market.</div><div style="text-align:justify">The accompanying annual consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. In accordance with International Accounting Standards ("IAS") 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, the Company has determined that the aforementioned conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, may cast substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least 12 months after the date these annual consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance. Management expects the actions it has taken or will take will mitigate the risk associated with the identified events and conditions. However, given the uncertainty and exogenous nature of the ongoing war and potential future imposed sanctions as well as potential new counter-sanctions, management concluded that a material uncertainty remains related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, such that it may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As a U.S. SEC registrant, the Company is required to have its financial statements audited in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") standards. References in these IFRS financial statements to matters that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern also raise substantial doubt as contemplated by the PCAOB standards.</div>

These positions primarily relate to value-added tax exposures associated with certain subscriber-related activities, including measures implemented in response to the martial law, marketing and customer retention initiatives. The Group has assessed these matters in accordance with IAS 37 and determined that no present obligation exists as outflows of economic resources are not probable. Management believes the likelihood of material adverse impact on the Group's results of operations, financial position, liquidity, or capital resources from these matters is remote. While the ultimate resolution remains uncertain and is dependent upon factors including examinations by tax authorities and interpretation of tax laws, the Group continues to monitor these positions and will recognize provisions if and when it becomes probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle an obligation that can be reliably estimated. </div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Risk of non-compliance to increase requirements for energy backup on mobile operators</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">The Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has mandated enhanced energy backup requirements (via generators) for mobile operator networks.

As of December 31, 2025, the estimated financial impact of potential penalties for non-compliance is approximately US$9.

The potential financial effect of such tax contingencies are disclosed in <a href="#i69497bc005454953a45696866c25e3e8_163" style="color:#0000ff;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline">Note 7</a> and above in this <a href="#i69497bc005454953a45696866c25e3e8_166" style="color:#0000ff;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline">Note 8</a>, unless not practicable to do so. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt">Uncertain tax positions </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Uncertain tax positions are recognized when it is probable that a tax position will not be sustained. The expected resolution of uncertain tax positions is based upon management’s judgment of the likelihood of sustaining a position taken through tax audits, tax courts and/or arbitration, if necessary. Circumstances and interpretations of the amount or likelihood of sustaining a position may change through the settlement process. Furthermore, the resolution of uncertain tax positions is not always within the control of the Group, and it is often dependent on the efficiency of the legal processes in the relevant taxing jurisdictions in which the Group operates. Issues can, and often do, take many years to resolve. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt">Recoverability of deferred tax assets </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that the assets will be realized. Significant judgment is required to determine the amount that can be recognized and depends foremost on the expected timing, level of taxable profits, tax planning strategies and the existence of taxable temporary differences. When an entity has a history of recent losses, the deferred tax asset arising from unused tax losses is recognized only to the extent that there is convincing evidence that sufficient future taxable profit will be generated. Estimated future taxable profit is not considered such evidence unless that entity has demonstrated the ability by generating significant taxable profit for the current year or there are certain other events providing sufficient evidence of future taxable profit. New transactions and the introduction of new tax rules may also affect judgments due to uncertainty concerning the interpretation of the rules and any transitional rules.</div><div style="text-align:justify">Pillar Two legislation has been substantively enacted in the Netherlands, the UAE and Cyprus but not in Ukraine and Uzbekistan. The legislation is effective for the Group’s financial year beginning January 1, 2025 (as the first year of the Group formation).

This assessment reflects the Group’s holding company structure, the statutory tax profiles and operational substance of its operating entities in Ukraine, Uzbekistan, and Cyprus, and the anticipated availability of applicable Safe Harbour mechanisms.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">However, the Pillar Two framework remains subject to ongoing interpretative guidance and domestic implementation developments.

<div style="margin-bottom:6pt">Income taxes </div>Income tax expense represents the aggregate amount determined on the profit for the period based on current tax and deferred tax. In cases where the tax relates to items that are charged to other comprehensive income or directly to equity, the tax is also charged respectively to other comprehensive income or directly to equity.

<div style="margin-bottom:6pt">Uncertain tax positions </div>The Group’s policy is to comply with the applicable tax regulations in the jurisdictions in which its operations are subject to income taxes. The Group’s estimates of current income tax expense and liabilities are calculated assuming that all tax computations filed by the Group will be subject to a review or audit by the relevant tax authorities. Uncertain tax positions are generally assessed individually, using the most likely outcome method. The Group and the relevant tax authorities may have different interpretations of how regulations should be applied to actual transactions (refer below for details regarding risks and uncertainties).

<div style="margin-bottom:6pt">Deferred taxation </div>Deferred taxes are recognized using the liability method and thus are computed as the taxes recoverable or payable in future periods in respect of deductible or taxable temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the Group’s financial statements.

Common Shares and a Loan Note Payable in the amount of US$178. The Loan Note Payable, net of US$8 of transaction costs incurred by Kyivstar Group but reimbursed to VEON Amsterdam B.V. from the SPAC Merger proceeds, has been accounted for as a non-cash distribution to VEON Amsterdam B.V. in its capacity as shareholder.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">SPAC Merger</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The SPAC Merger was accounted for as a capital reorganization in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based Payments ("IFRS 2"). Under this method of accounting, Cohen Circle is treated as the "acquired" company for financial reporting purposes and the Company as the accounting "acquirer." The net assets of Cohen Circle were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. The SPAC Merger, which is not within the scope of IFRS 3 Business Combinations ("IFRS 3"), since Cohen Circle did not meet the definition of a "business" pursuant to IFRS 3, was accounted for within the scope of IFRS 2. Any excess of fair value of the Company’s Common Shares issued over the fair value of Cohen Circle identifiable net assets acquired represents compensation for the service of a stock exchange listing for its shares and is expensed as incurred.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The consolidated financial statements of the merged company will represent a continuation of the financial statements of Kyivstar Holdings, the principles and guidance on the preparation and presentation of the consolidated financial statements will be applied as follows: </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•the assets and liabilities of Kyivstar Holdings recognized and measured in the financial statements at their carrying amounts immediately prior to the Capital Reorganization; </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•the net investment of Kyivstar Holdings is recognized in the financial statements at amounts immediately prior to the Capital Reorganization.

In exchange for the foregoing commitments not to redeem such Non-Redeemed Shares, Kyivstar Group Ltd. issued 757,745 Kyivstar Group Ltd. Common Shares at Closing. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The issuance of Kyivstar Group Ltd. shares to Cohen Circle shareholders as consideration for non-redemption and voting support has been classified as a share-based payment transaction under IFRS 2 as Kyivstar Group Ltd. issued shares as consideration for the non-redemption and voting agreements. The shares issued by Kyivstar Group Ltd. were recognized as an equity transaction, with the initial measurement at fair value. The fair value of the issued shares should be determined based on the market price and is included in the listing expense in the annual consolidated income statement. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">SPAC Public Shares</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">On August 12, 2025, the shareholders of CC voted to approve and adopt the Business Combination Agreement and to approve and authorize CC to merge with Varna Merger Sub. In connection with the vote to approve the Business Combination Agreement and the SPAC Merger, holders of 5,847,015 shares of CC Class A Ordinary Shares exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately US$10.40 per share, for a total aggregate redemption amount of US$61 resulting in a total of 17,152,985 Cohen Circle public ordinary shares remaining issued and outstanding as of the Closing Date. At the Closing, each share of CC Class A Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing was automatically surrendered and exchanged for 17,152,985 newly issued Kyivstar Group Ltd.

Common Shares.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Under the Sponsor Agreement and the Seller Lock-Up Agreement the Sponsor was not permitted to sell or transfer 3,971,515 of its 5,740,353 shares during the Lock-Up Period (defined as the earlier to occur of: (a) 180 days after the Closing; or (b) such time as the stock price meets or exceeds US$13.50 for 20 out of any 30 consecutive trading days (but no earlier than 90 days following the Closing)). As of January 2026, the shares subject to restrictions under each of the Sponsor Agreement and the Seller Lock-Up Agreement were released and those certain restrictions on transfer pursuant to each agreement are no longer in effect.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Furthermore, 1,323,838 Kyivstar Group Ltd.

The vesting is based on a market condition, linked to the Company’s share price. There is no service condition attached to the vesting of the shares. As a result, this condition is considered to be a non-vesting condition rather than a market condition. The non-vesting condition was taken into account when estimating the grant date fair value of the vesting shares issued. The IFRS 2 fair value of the Sponsor vesting shares was immediately expensed as part of the listing expense in the income statement. As the Sponsor vesting shares are classified as equity-settled share-based payment, there is no subsequent remeasurement of these shares. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the fair value of the Sponsor vesting shares. The use of the Monte Carlo simulation model required the Company to make estimates and assumptions, such as expected volatility, expected term and risk-free interest rate which were based on the best information available to management at the time of closing.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Warrants</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">At the Closing, each of the 7,666,629 issued and outstanding Cohen Circle warrants were automatically surrendered and exchanged for 7,666,629 Kyivstar Group warrants.

The warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination Agreement or earlier upon redemption by the Company or liquidation of the Company. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The warrants may be redeemed when the price per common share equals or exceeds US$18.00.

The possible outcomes range from US$— to US$4, with management assessing full payment as highly probable.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">As part of the agreement, Kyivstar entered into a symmetrical put and call option agreement for the remaining 3% interest in Uklon. The put and call options may be exercised from April 2, 2028 through April 2, 2035. As a result, on the acquisition date, VEON determined that it had a present ownership interest in the remaining 3% interest in Uklon and has accounted for the call and put option as part of the consideration transferred and therefore, no non-controlling interest was recognized. Accordingly, the option has been recorded as a financial liability at the present value of the amounts payable on exercise with subsequent changes recognized in the annual consolidated income statement. </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The fair value of the customer base was determined to be US$32 with an estimated useful life of 10 years. The fair value of the customer base was determined using the multi-period excess earnings. The multi-period excess earnings approach involves forecasting the net earnings expected to be generated by the asset, reducing them by appropriate returns on contributory assets, and then discounting the resulting net cash flows to a present value using an appropriate discount rate.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The fair value of the trademark was determined to be US$18 with an estimated useful life of 10 years. The fair value of the trademark was determined using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach. This involves forecasting avoided royalties, reducing them by taxes and discounting the resulting net cash flows to a present value using an appropriate discount rate.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The fair value of the developed technology intangible asset was determined to be US$8 with an estimated useful life of 3 years. The fair value of the developed technology was determined using the replacement cost approach. In the replacement cost approach, the fair value </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">of an asset is based on the cost of a market participant to reconstruct a substitute asset of comparable utility, adjusted for any obsolescence.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The fair value of acquired trade and other receivables is US$2, which is very close to gross contractual amount, as a loss allowance is insignificant.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The significant goodwill recognized from the acquisition of Uklon can be attributed to several factors, including Uklon's strong brand value and established customer relationships, which enhance Kyivstar’s market position. Additionally, the integration of Uklon’s services is expected to create operational synergies, leading to cost savings and improved service offerings. The acquisition also allows for market expansion and increased subscriber growth potential, while Uklon's technological expertise contributes to innovative capabilities. Overall, the goodwill reflects the anticipated future economic benefits arising from these elements. The goodwill will not be deductible for tax purposes.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">There were no transactions recognized separately from the acquisition of assets and assumption of liabilities in the business combination.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">From the date of acquisition, Uklon contributed US$80 of revenue and US$21 profit before tax to the Group. If the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the year, the contribution to revenue would have been US$99 and contribution to the profit before tax for Kyivstar Group would have been US$25. These amounts have been calculated using Uklon’s results and adjusting them for: </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•differences in the accounting policies between the Group and Uklon, and</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt">•additional amortization that would have been charged on the assumption that the fair value adjustments to intangible assets had applied from January 1, 2025, together with their consequential tax effects.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Acquisition-related costs of US$1 are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the annual consolidated income statement, and in operating cash flows in the annual consolidated statement of cash flows.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">The accounting for the purchase of Uklon is provisional as the valuation of certain intangible and long-term assets, accounts payable, other assets and liabilities, and residual goodwill related to this acquisition is not complete. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary based on management’s estimates and assumptions and may be subject to change as additional information is obtained within the measurement period (not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date ending April 2, 2026).</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">During the year ended December 31, 2025, Kyivstar recorded measurement period adjustments related to the acquisition of Uklon to reflect additional information identified subsequent to the acquisition. The adjustments include recognition of US$6 of unpaid Uklon transaction costs as assumed Seller liabilities and a total decrease of US$1 related to the fair value of the put option liability and deferred tax liability. As a result, the fair value of identifiable net assets decreased from US$54 to US$49, and goodwill increased from US$104 to US$109. These adjustments were made within the measurement period and reflect facts and circumstances existing at the acquisition date.</div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt">Kyivstar increases ownership stake in Helsi </div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify">In May 2025, Kyivstar and LLC "UKRAINIAN INVESTMENT PLATFORM", representing 26.9% ownership together with other minority stakeholders representing 1.1% ownership in Helsi, negotiated an agreement to buy out the ownership stake of these parties for US$10. Simultaneously the parties also terminated the existing put and call option agreements to the extent representing the stake of these parties, resulting in partial derecognition of the put option liability. At the same time Kyivstar agreed to terms with the remaining 2.01% shareholders based on the terms of the originally entered put and call option agreement. </div><div> </div><div>Acquisition of SUNVIN 11 LLC </div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">On December 15, 2025, JSC Kyivstar acquired 100% of the equity interests in SUNVIN 11 LLC, a solar power generation company with 12.9 MW of installed capacity. This acquisition represents JSC Kyivstar's first direct investment in energy resilience infrastructure to support telecommunications network operations. The transaction has been accounted for as a business combination under IFRS 3, with total cash consideration transferred of US$8, net of cash acquired of US$2.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">The purchase price allocation is provisional, as the Group is finalizing fair value assessments of property, plant and equipment, identifiable intangible assets, and related deferred tax balances. Provisional goodwill of US$7 arose on the acquisition, primarily attributable to expected operational synergies and assembled workforce. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS <div style="text-align:justify">Property and equipment and intangible assets are tested regularly for impairment. The Group assesses, at the end of each reporting period, whether any indicators exist that an asset may be impaired (i.e., asset becoming idle, damaged or no longer in use).

Impairment losses are recognized in the consolidated income statement in a separate line item. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Goodwill is tested for impairment annually (at September 30) or when circumstances indicate the carrying value may be impaired.

2031</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Discount rate</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Discount rates are initially based on the risk-free rate for 20-year maturity bonds of the United States Treasury, adjusted for a risk premium to reflect both the increased risk of investing in equities and the systematic risk of the specific CGU relative to the market as a whole. International Fisher effect is than applied, using US and local inflation forecast, to compute final discount rate in functional currency.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">The equity market risk premium is sourced from independent market analysts. The systematic risk, beta, represents the median of the raw betas of the entities comparable in size and geographic footprint with the ones of each CGU ("Peer Group"). The country risk premium is based on an average default spread derived from sovereign credit ratings published by main credit rating agencies for a given CGU. The debt risk premium is based on the median of Standard & Poor’s long-term credit rating of the Peer Group. The weighted average cost of </div><div style="text-align:justify">capital is determined based on target debt-to-equity ratios representing the median historical five year capital structure for each entity from the Peer Group. The discount rate in functional currency of a CGU is adjusted for the applicable country’s risk premium.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">From 2025 and onward, a separate discount rate was computed for each of the five forecasted years along with one for the terminal period. The computation of discount rate per year is similar to what is mentioned above with the only difference being yearly forecast inflation rate (both for US & local country as per IMF) used in international fisher effect application. While using a single long-term inflation was a commonly acceptable straight forward approach, it assumed a stable inflation environment and did not account for short term volatility which is being increasingly observed in markets in which Group operates. This revised approach allows near term cashflows (which may be exposed to higher inflation volatility) to be discounted at rates that reflect their actual risk profile while longer term cashflows gradually converge to a more stable inflation in the terminal period. </div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Revenue growth rates</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">The revenue growth rates during the forecast period vary based on numerous factors, including size of market, GDP (Gross Domestic Product), foreign currency projections, traffic growth, market share and others. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Long-term growth rates in perpetuity applied to each CGU were reassessed in 2025. With the Group’s ongoing transformation to a digital operator, there has become an increasing need to align long-term assumptions with changing macroeconomic fundamentals and industry practice. Previously the focus was on core telecommunication, meaning the business offered more commodity services but now as the business shifts more towards inflation indexed pricing and value added digital revenue streams. As a result, growth rates for the terminal period was linked to long-term inflation for each country which in addition to being an externally observable benchmark, better reflects economic reality.</div><div> </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">Operating margin</div><div style="text-align:justify">For estimation of operating margins, the Group transitioned impairment testing calculations to reflect post-IFRS 16 assumptions from 2025. This change primarily involves removing lease expenses (rentals) from the operating margin and considering CAPEX relating to future IFRS 16 leases (which is discussed in more detail in next section - CAPEX). This results in higher EBITDA and in isolations leads to a higher recoverable amount. This is offset in part by the additional IFRS 16 CAPEX. For the terminal period, a normalized post-IFRS 16 EBITDA was determined which reflected expected sustainable margins in long-term. The forecasted operating margin is based on the budget and forecast calculations and assumes cost optimization initiatives which are part of on-going operations, as well as regulatory and technological changes known to date, such as telecommunication license issues and price regulation, among others.

The cash flow forecasts for capital expenditures of telecommunication operations are based on the budget and forecast calculations and include the network roll-outs plans and license requirements. For digital operations, the cash flow forecasts for capital expenditures are based on expected maintenance and expansionary physical equipment required to generate ongoing revenues.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Where applicable, the cash flow forecasts for license and spectrum payments for each operating company for the initial 5 years include amounts for expected renewals and newly available spectrum. Beyond that period, a long-run cost related to spectrum and license payments is assumed. </div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">As the Group transitioned the impairment testing calculations to post IFRS 16 this year, to ensure integrity of recoverable value assessment, right-of-use CAPEX representing the value of future expected lease contracts was included in calculations. This partially offsets the impact in the recoverable amount computation coming from a higher operating margin. Additionally, under the post-IFRS 16 framework, right-of-use assets are included as part of carrying value computation (which is consistent with their classification as operating assets under IAS 36) and further reduces the upside coming from higher operating margin, but lease liabilities are treated as financing obligations and excluded from carrying value computation.</div><div> </div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify">SOURCE OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY </div><div style="text-align:justify">The Group has significant investments in property and equipment, intangible assets, and goodwill.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Estimating recoverable amounts of assets and CGUs must, in part, be based on management’s evaluations, including the determination of the appropriate CGUs, the relevant discount rate, estimation of future performance, the revenue-generating capacity of assets, timing and amount of future purchases of property, equipment, licenses and spectrum, assumptions of future market conditions and the long-term growth rate into perpetuity (terminal value). In doing this, management needs to assume a market participant perspective. Changing the assumptions selected by management, in particular, the discount rate, capex intensity, operating margin and growth rate assumptions used to estimate the recoverable amounts of assets, could significantly impact the Group’s impairment evaluation and hence results.</div>There are significant variations between different markets with respect to growth, mobile penetration, ARPU, market share and similar parameters, resulting in differences in operating margins. The future development of operating margins is important in the Group’s impairment assessments.

The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Group’s statements of profit or loss.
