Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS, net working capital and net sales on a constant currency basis are non-IFRS measures used by us to evaluate our performance. Furthermore, we believe these non-IFRS measures enhance investors' understanding of our financial and operating performance from period to period because they enhance the comparability of results between each period, help identify trends in operating results and provide additional insight and transparency on how management evaluates the business. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS, net working capital and net sales on a constant currency basis should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS. For a detailed description and a reconciliation to the nearest IFRS measure, see the section titled “Non-IFRS Measures.”

Three-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2025
SG&A expenses for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026 increased by CHF 68.3 million, or 18.5%, to CHF 436.3 million, compared to CHF 368.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2025.

The drivers for the fluctuations in SG&A expenses, mostly denominated as a percentage of net sales, can be summarized as follows:
•Distribution expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 10.0% during the three-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to 11.4% during the three-month period ended June 30, 2025. This was primarily due to lower delivery and warehousing costs resulting from operational efficiency gains during the three-month period ended June 30, 2026.
•Selling expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 9.5% during the three-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to 8.1% during the three-month period ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by additional expenses incurred as a result of our expanding retail footprint, primarily due to retail store-related personnel costs and depreciation.
•Marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 14.0% during the three-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to 12.0% during the three-month period ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by selective reinvestment of operational efficiency gains into meaningful brand building initiatives, including in digital environments and innovation activations, as well as a shift in the timing of our marketing campaigns.
•Share-based compensation increased to CHF 12.2 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to share-based compensation of CHF 10.9 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2025.
•General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 16.4% during the three-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to 16.2% during the three-month period ended June 30, 2025. This slight increase was primarily driven by higher personnel related expenses, as well as higher research and development expenses, partially offset by strong net sales growth.
Six-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2025
SG&A expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 increased by CHF 126.9 million, or 17.5%, to CHF 853.2 million, compared to CHF 726.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025. Excluding share-based compensation, SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 48.7% in the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to 47.5% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025.
The drivers for the fluctuations in SG&A expenses, mostly denominated as a percentage of net sales, can be summarized as follows:
•Distribution expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 10.0% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to 11.2% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2025.

•Selling expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 9.0% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to 8.2% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2025.

•Marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 13.6% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to 11.6% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by selective reinvestment of operational efficiency gains into meaningful brand building initiatives, including in digital environments and innovation activations, as well as a shift in the timing of our marketing campaigns.
•Share-based compensation increased to CHF 33.5 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to share-based compensation of CHF 25.5 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2025.
•General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 16.2% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 compared to 16.5% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2025. This decrease is primarily driven by the non-recurrence of one-off employee-related expenses, partially offset by higher recurring personnel related expenses.

Three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025
Financial income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026 increased by CHF 3.8 million to CHF 11.3 million, compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2025. Financial income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 increased by CHF 3.5 million to CHF 18.3 million, when compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2025. The increases in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 were primarily driven by an increase in the underlying amount of fixed deposits.
Financial expenses for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026 increased by CHF 0.5 million to CHF 8.3 million, compared to CHF 7.7 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2025. Financial expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 increased by CHF 2.7 million, to CHF 16.3 million, compared to CHF 13.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025. The increases in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 were primarily driven by higher interest expenses on lease contracts, resulting from new leases outstanding throughout the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025.
The change in foreign exchange result was primarily due to significant foreign exchange losses incurred during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025, driven by fluctuations in the CHF/USD exchange rate. The foreign exchange gains recorded in the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 were impacted by the functional currency changes that occurred on January 1, 2026 and the slight appreciation of the USD against the GBP, CHF, JPY, and EUR as of June 30, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025. Refer to the section titled "Factors Affecting Performance and Trend Information," and to our Annual Report, available at www.sec.gov, for additional information on the aforementioned functional currency changes.

| Effective income tax rate | | 16.5 | % | | 13.5 | % | | | | 13.9 | % | | 5.1 | % | | |
Income tax (expense) / benefit, based on an estimate of the annual effective income tax rate for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026, was CHF (20.7) million and CHF (33.5) million, respectively.

The effective income tax rate was 16.5% and 13.9% for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to 13.5% and 5.1% for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The increases to the effective income tax rates were mainly due to deferred income tax benefits during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 related to the elimination of intercompany profits in inventory, as well as higher effectiveness of certain tax incentives and prior year adjustments during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital requirements, capital expenditures, lease obligations and for general corporate purposes. We finance our liquidity needs using a combination of cash and cash equivalents balances and cash provided from operating activities.

Investing activities
Cash outflow from investing activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 increased by CHF 17.8 million to CHF 47.2 million, compared to CHF 29.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025.

Financing activities
Cash outflow from financing activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 increased by CHF 6.3 million to CHF 43.3 million, compared to CHF 37.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025.
Net Working Capital
Net working capital is a financial measure that is not defined under IFRS. We use, and believe that certain investors and analysts use, this information to assess liquidity and management use of net working capital resources. We define net working capital as trade receivables, plus inventories, minus trade payables. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any standardized measure under IFRS.
Other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

We have an option to increase the total availability of borrowings under the credit facility in an aggregate amount of up to CHF 200 million, subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions. We entered into the credit facility as part of our prudent financial planning strategy to create future financial flexibility to better align with the size and maturity of the Company. The proceeds of any borrowings under the credit facility may be used towards the financing of working capital requirements and for general corporate purposes, including the roll-in of certain existing bank guarantees and the issuance of new bank guarantees. The credit facility had an initial term of three years, which has subsequently been extended for a total period of two years. Subsequent to extensions, the credit facility will expire on July 7, 2028.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, no amounts had been drawn under the new credit facility, and we do not currently expect to do so in the near term. As of June 30, 2026, we are using the credit facility to provide guarantees and letters of credit, as further discussed in the section titled "Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements."
The credit facility also contains financial covenants that depend on our consolidated equity as well as our net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio. As of and during the six-month period ending June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with all covenants under the credit facility.
Further, as of June 30, 2026, trade receivables and inventories with a carrying value of CHF 312.8 million and CHF 342.2 million, respectively, were pledged in relation to the credit facility.
Material Cash Requirements
There were no material changes outside of the ordinary course of business as of June 30, 2026, to the material cash requirements reported in our Annual Report, with the exception of the items discussed below.
Lease commitments: As of June 30, 2026, total lease commitments are CHF 230.3 million, with CHF 14.4, CHF 99.9 million, and CHF 116.0 million due in less than one year, between one to five years, and more than five years, respectively. The increase in total lease commitments as of June 30, 2026, compared to CHF 153.8 million as of December 31, 2025, relates to our planned global retail expansion and a new warehouse planned in APAC.
Lease liabilities: As of June 30, 2026, total undiscounted lease liabilities are CHF 672.4 million, with CHF 110.2 million, CHF 332.5 million, and CHF 229.7 million due in less than one year, between one to five years, and more than five years, respectively. This represents an increase of CHF 56.8 million from CHF 615.6 million as of December 31, 2025, primarily driven by new retail lease commencements as part of our ongoing expansion.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we provided guarantees and letters of credit in the amount of CHF 163.2 million and CHF 153.2 million in favor of third parties, respectively. Of the total guarantees and letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, CHF 163.2 million and CHF 153.2 million, respectively, relate to our credit facility, as discussed in the section titled "Indebtedness." Other than those items disclosed here and elsewhere in this document, we do not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements or commitments as of June 30, 2026.
Non-IFRS Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS, net working capital, and net sales on a constant currency basis are financial measures that are not defined under IFRS.
We use these non-IFRS measures when evaluating our performance, including when making financial and operating decisions, and as a key component in the determination of variable incentive compensation for employees. We believe that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, these non-IFRS measures enhance investor understanding of our financial and operating performance from period to period, because they enhance the comparability of results between each period, help identify trends in operating results and provide additional insight and transparency on how management evaluates the business. In particular, we believe adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and net working capital are measures commonly used by investors to evaluate companies in the sportswear industry.
However, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS, net working capital, and net sales on a constant currency basis should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS and may not be comparable to similarly titled non-IFRS measures used by other companies. The tables below reconcile adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, and adjusted diluted EPS to their most directly comparable IFRS measure. See sections titled "Liquidity and Capital Resource" and "Operating Results" for reconciliations of net working capital and net sales on a constant currency basis, respectively, to their most directly comparable IFRS measure.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
The table below reconciles net income and adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented. Adjusted EBITDA margin is equal to adjusted EBITDA for the period presented as a percentage of net sales for the same period.

Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Basic EPS and Adjusted Diluted EPS
We use adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS and adjusted diluted EPS as measures of operating performance in conjunction with related IFRS measures.
For the purpose of operational performance measurement, we calculate adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS and adjusted diluted EPS in a manner that fully excludes the impact of any costs related to share-based compensation and includes the tax effect on the tax-deductible portion of the non-IFRS adjustments, which we believe increases comparability of the metric from period to period, and makes it useful for management, our audit committee and investors to assess our financial performance over time.
Adjusted basic EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Adjusted diluted EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period on a fully diluted basis.
The table below provides a reconciliation between net income and adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS and adjusted diluted EPS for the periods presented:

Net Sales on a Constant Currency Basis
Net sales on a constant currency basis is a non-IFRS measure which represents current period results that have been retranslated using exchange rates used in the prior year comparative period. We provide constant currency percent change in net sales within our "Key Financial and Operating Metrics" and "Operating Results" sections, to enhance the visibility of the underlying growth rate of net sales, excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
Factors Affecting Performance and Trend Information
We expect our growth, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations will continue to be affected by a number of factors and trends. Refer to “Item 3.D. Risk Factors” and "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects" within our Annual Report for further information on these factors. Below, we have included recent updates.
Customs and duty expenses
Beginning in April 2025, the United States ("U.S") implemented new tariffs as part of its trade policy, including both baseline tariffs and higher country-specific reciprocal tariffs on imports from all countries. Additionally, on July 31, 2025, an executive order ("Executive Order") was signed confirming the tariff rates on various trading partner countries, including a fixed reciprocal import tariff of 20% on Vietnam (applied in addition to the existing 20% import tariff in Vietnam). The confirmed tariff rates under the Executive Order became effective on August 8th, 2025. In July 2026, the U.S. government imposed additional tariffs under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 that are expected to result in an increase in tariffs on our products.
On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court invalidated specific tariffs levied under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”), and the U.S government ceased collecting these tariffs on February 24, 2026. On April 20, 2026, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection introduced an electronic system to manage refunds for these IEEPA tariffs.
As of June 30, 2026, our total IEEPA tariffs paid are CHF 55.6 million, of which CHF 52.7 million have been submitted through the U.S. Customs refund processing. We have determined that potential recovery of any of these funds is not virtually certain as of June 30, 2026 and therefore have not recognized any of these potential refund amounts in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. We will recognize refunds in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements when realization of these amounts is deemed virtually certain. We will recognize the potential refund impact attributed to inventories already sold as a reduction to cost of sales, and the potential impact attributed to inventories still on-hand as a reduction to inventories. As of June 30, 2026, the majority of the potential refund relates to inventory already sold. As of August 11, 2026, we received approximately CHF 27.9 million in IEEPA tariff refunds. This amount will be recognized in the third quarter of 2026.
We will continue to monitor changes to the import and export policies of the U.S. and other countries, including the imposition of additional tariffs, that could impact our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Macroeconomic conditions
Global events, including the recent military conflict in the Middle East, have resulted in worldwide geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty, and we cannot predict how these conflicts will evolve or the timing and effects thereof. Continued instability could adversely affect consumer demand and our sales and growth in those markets. In addition, the conflict could further disrupt regional trade routes. We will continue to monitor the situation and the potential impact it may have on consumer patterns and sentiment in the Middle East and other regions.
We are subject to risks and exposures from the evolving global macroeconomic environment, including the level of promotional activity in the market and economic uncertainty, all of which may negatively impact customer demand, consumer spending, our ability to manage inventory, and our sales and growth. In the second quarter of 2026, growth in our wholesale channel was more moderate given selective sell-in actions with partners, particularly in the Americas, as we continue to operate in a highly promotional market / industry. These actions are a result of our commitment to our premium strategy and disciplined execution, including selective actions taken in the third quarter of 2026 and the potential for further action to manage sell-in for the remainder of the year.
Functional Currency Change
Effective January 1, 2026, On Holding AG (the Group's parent company) and On AG (the Group's main trading entity) have changed their functional currency from the Swiss Franc (CHF) to the U.S Dollar (USD). These
changes were accounted for prospectively and did not impact prior period financial statements. The Group’s presentation currency remains in CHF.
As a result, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the effect of exchange rate changes on USD-denominated monetary assets and liabilities was reduced, resulting in reduced volatility within line item foreign exchange gains / (losses) in our consolidated profit or loss statements. We expect this lower volatility, as a result of the reduced effect of exchange rate changes on USD-denominated monetary assets and liabilities, to continue in 2026 and future periods.
Additionally, beginning in the first quarter of 2026, we are recording adjustments in other comprehensive income / (loss) to translate these entities' financial statements from USD to CHF (our presentation currency), which led to increased volatility within other comprehensive income / (loss) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. We expect the increased volatility arising from the translation of these entities' financial statements from USD to CHF to continue throughout 2026 and into future periods.
Refer to note "6.6 Events after the balance sheet date" and "Item 5.B Liquidity and capital resources" within our Annual Report, available at www.sec.gov., for additional information on the aforementioned functional currency change.
