NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2026
1 Corporate information
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes present the operations of Jumia Technologies AG (the “Company” or “Jumia Tech”) and its subsidiaries (the “Group” or “Jumia”).
The Company was incorporated as Africa Internet Holding GmbH on June 26, 2012, and was transformed into Jumia Technologies AG, a German stock corporation on January 31, 2019. The Company is domiciled in Germany and has its registered office located at Skalitzer Strasse 104, 10997 Berlin, Germany. The Group operates in e-commerce across the African continent.
In April 2019 Jumia Tech became a listed company on New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), with ticker symbol “JMIA”.
Jumia is the leading pan-African e-commerce platform. Jumia’s platform consists of a marketplace, which connects sellers with customers, a logistics service, which enables the shipping and delivery of packages from sellers to customers, and payment gateways, which facilitate transactions among participants active on Jumia’s platform.
The Group has incurred significant losses since its incorporation. While losses have decreased in recent periods, the Group may require additional funding from existing or new shareholders.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements disclose all matters of which the Group is aware, and which are relevant to the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, including all significant events and mitigating factors. Further details can be found in Note 32. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis which assumes that the Group will continue as a going concern, and which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of the liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Group has sufficient resources to operate as a going concern for the next 12 months.
2 Basis of preparation
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the quarterly reporting period ended June 30, 2026 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board ("IASB").
Our business is seasonal and, consequently, our results tend to fluctuate from quarter to quarter. However, the comparability of the Group's results and financial position of the interim period, is not significantly affected by the level of seasonality.
The interim report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, except for the adoption of the new standards effective as of January 1, 2026 (Note 4 a)).
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in US dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand ($000), except when otherwise indicated.
3 Significant changes in the current reporting period
There have been no material changes in the accounting policies and basis of consolidation adopted in prior periods. None of the standards and interpretations that have been adopted for the first time have had a material impact on the Group's accounting policies.
There have been no material revisions to the nature and amount of estimates and assumptions reported in prior periods. In view of the business activities in which the Group engages, transactions are not substantially cyclical or seasonal in nature. Therefore, no specific disclosures are included in this connection in the explanatory notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
4 New accounting pronouncements
a) New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Group
During the current period the Group has adopted the following amendments and improvements, which have no material impacts on the Group’s interim consolidated financial statements.
•Amendments to IFRS 9 ("Financial Instruments") and IFRS 7 ("Financial Instruments: Disclosures"): Classification and measurement of financial instruments
•Amendments to IFRS 9 ("Financial Instruments") and IFRS 7 ("Financial Instruments: Disclosures"): Contracts referencing nature-dependent electricity
•Annual Improvements – "Volume 11": affects IFRS 1, IFRS 7, IFRS 9, IFRS 10 and IAS 7
b) Standards issued but not yet effective in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements
On April 9, 2024, the IASB issued ‘IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements'. This new standard will replace the current IAS 1. While retaining many of the existing principles of IAS 1, it is focused on the specification of a structure for the statement of profit or loss, composed of categories and required subtotals. Items in the statement of profit or loss will be classified into one of three categories: operating, investing, financing. Specified subtotals and totals will be required being the main change the mandatory inclusion of the subtotal “Operating profit or loss”. This standard also includes improvements to the disclosure of management performance measures including the reconciliation with the most similar specified subtotal in IFRS Accounting standards. This standard also enhances guidance on the principles of aggregation and disaggregation of information in the financial statements and respective notes, based on their shared characteristics. This standard applies retrospectively. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027.
The group is analyzing the potential impacts of adoption of this standard in the presentation of financial statements (in particular comprehensive income statement), and disclosures of management performance measures.
IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures
On May 9, 2024, the IASB issued ‘IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures'. IFRS 19 is a voluntary standard which allows “Eligible” subsidiaries to use IFRS Accounting Standards with reduced disclosure requirements. IFRS 19 is a disclosure-only standard and works alongside other IFRS Accounting Standards for recognition, measurement, and presentation requirements. A subsidiary is “Eligible” if (i) it does not have public accountability; and (ii) has a parent that prepares consolidated financial statements available for public use that comply with IFRS Accounting Standards. IFRS 19 can be applied by “Eligible” subsidiaries when preparing their own consolidated, separate or individual financial statements. Complete comparative information needs to be prepared under IFRS 19 unless any exemption applies. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027.
The group will not have an impact upon adoption of this standard.
Amendments to IFRS 19 ("Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures")
On August 21, 2025, the IASB issued On August 21, 2025, the IASB issued ‘Amendments to IFRS 19: Disclosure Requirements’. The amendment aims to reduce disclosure requirements for changes to standards and new standards issued
between February 2021 and May 2024, namely: IFRS 18: Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements; Amendments to IAS 7 – Supplier Finance Arrangements; IAS 12 – International Tax Reform – Pillar Two Model Rules; Amendments to IAS 21 – The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability. The presentation of complete comparative information is mandatory unless an exemption applies. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027.
The group will not have an impact upon adoption of these amendments.
IAS 21 ("The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates") amendment on translation to a hyperinflationary presentation currency
On November 13, 2025, the IASB issued ‘The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Translation to a Hyperinflationary Presentation Currency (Amendments to IAS 21)'. This amendment specifies the conversion procedures for an entity whose presentation currency is that of a hyperinflationary economy. The entity applies the amendments if: (i) its functional currency is that of a non-hyperinflationary economy and it is translating its results and financial position to the presentation currency of a hyperinflationary economy; and (ii) it is translating to the currency of a hyperinflationary economy the results and financial position of a foreign operation whose functional currency is that of a non-hyperinflationary economy. Income statement and financial position must be translated into the presentation currency by translating all amounts (i.e., assets, liabilities, equity items, income, and expenses) at the spot exchange rate at the reporting date. Comparatives are also translated at the same exchange rate, except for the translation of a foreign operations, for which comparatives must be restated by applying the general price index, as provided for in IAS 29. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027.
The group will not have an impact upon adoption of this amendment.
IFRS 20 Regulatory Assets and Regulatory Liabilities
On May 27, 2026, the IASB issued 'IFRS 20 - Regulatory Assets and Regulatory Liabilities'. This new standard applies to companies operating under a regulatory agreement in which the regulator determines how much may be charged and when such charges may be levied. IFRS 20 requires entities to account for the effects of the “differences in timing” in their financial statements by recognizing regulatory assets and regulatory liabilities, so that the entity recognizes the total allowed compensation for regulatory goods or services in the same reporting period that the entity supplies those regulatory goods or services, by recognizing, in addition to the IFRS 15 revenue, the resulting regulatory income and regulatory expenses in the income statement. Regulatory assets and liabilities are measured as specified by the regulator and when not specified, based on estimated future cash flows, discounted using the regulatory interest rate being subsequently reviewed whenever necessary. This Standard is applied retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 or based on a modified retrospective application, the presentation of comparative information is always mandatory. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2029.
The group will not have an impact upon adoption of this standard.
IAS 28 ("Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures") amendment on fair value option for investments in Associates and Joint ventures
On June 26, 2026, the IASB issued ‘Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures: Fair value option for investments in Associates and Joint ventures (Amendments to IAS 28)'. This amendment clarifies the definition of the entities allowed to exercise the option of measuring investments in associates and joint ventures at fair value through profit or loss. Accordingly, it determines the replacement of the term “similar entities” by “entities that have a specified main business activity of investing in certain types of assets, as defined in IFRS 18. The eligibility to apply the fair value measurement option under IAS 28 does not directly imply the income and expense category of the statement of profit or loss where the income and expenses of these investments are classified. This amendment is to be applied retrospectively, with the restatement of the comparative information, on the same date as the adoption of IFRS 18. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027.
The group will not have an impact upon adoption of this amendment.

During the six months ended on June 30, 2026, the Group’s main additions on Right of use assets include new lease contracts for new warehouses facilities in Nigeria and a lease renewal in Senegal. Lease modifications were mainly driven by the early termination of warehouse contract Algeria and the contract renovation of the Ivory Coast warehouse and the Portugal office.
6 Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities
The Group records the tax effect resulting from temporary differences between the assets and liabilities determined on an accounting basis and on a tax basis.
The balance of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, on a consolidated basis, is USD318 thousand as of June 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025: USD326 thousand), consisting of tax benefits to be used in future periods and USD65 thousand as of June 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025: USD126 thousand), comprised primarily of unrealized foreign exchange gains and leases right of use assets temporary differences, partially offset by the related lease liability.
The variance of the tax effect described above impacted “Income tax expense” by USD(57) thousand, relating to remaining impacts.
As mentioned on the annual report, the offset between deferred tax assets and liabilities is performed at each subsidiary level.
7 Other non-current assets
As of June 30, 2026, other non-current assets were comprised of rent, trade, and other term deposits amounting to USD1,146 thousand (December 31, 2025: USD1,254 thousand), restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period, and other non-current assets amounting to USD18 thousand as of June 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025: USD24 thousand).

The total cost of inventory, consisting primarily of the purchase price of customer products, recognized as an expense in the interim consolidated profit or loss for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was USD41,871 thousand (For the six months ended June 30, 2025: USD37,639 thousand).
The amount of write-down of inventories recognized in the consolidated profit or loss was USD79 thousand. The amount of reversal of write-down recognized as reduction in the amount of inventories recognized as an expense in the consolidated profit or loss was USD106 thousand. The reversal of write-down primarily arises from our ability to increase the net realizable value of certain inventory items through price increases, driving higher margins.
9 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of the following:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | As of |

The Group has no restricted cash presented in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025: nil).
While cash and cash equivalents are also subject to the impairment requirements of IFRS 9 ("Financial Instruments"), the identified expected credit loss was immaterial, due to low credit risk rating of the financial institutions.

Uncertain tax positions
Uncertain tax positions includes provisions related to VAT for USD1,160 thousand (December 31, 2025: USD1,532 thousand), provisions related to Withholding Tax (WHT) for USD4,919 thousand (December 31, 2025: USD4,895 thousand) and provisions related to other taxes for USD692 thousand (December 31, 2025: USD846 thousand).
Provisions are calculated based on the detailed review of uncertain tax positions completed by management across the Group and in consideration of the probability of a liability arising, within the applicable statute of limitations. These provisions are expected to be utilized or released as a result of the regular tax audits in the Countries where the Group operates. When the technical merits of tax filings get clarified and confirmed with the tax authorities, as happened in 2025, this reduces the overall uncertainty in the Group's tax positions, resulting in a reversal of provisions.
Marketplace and consignment goods
The provision for marketplace and consignment goods relates to the lost and damaged items, which are to be reimbursed to the sellers. The provision is calculated based on the detailed review of these items, and it is expected that these costs will be incurred in the next financial year.
Provision for other expenses
The provision for other expenses includes the end-of-service gratuity provision of USD767 thousand (December 31, 2025: USD721 thousand) and various litigation and penalty provisions of USD586 thousand (December 31, 2025: USD940 thousand). The provisions are calculated based on our best estimate considering past experience.
20 Deferred income
As of June 30, 2026, the deferred income related to a depositary fee from BNY Mellon was fully utilized (December 31, 2025: USD1,233 thousand). Our depositary agreement with BNY Mellon contains a compensation for each ADS issued during our primary (IPO) and secondary offerings, deferred over the period of the agreement. In 2024, the Group entered into an agreement with the depositary bank that provides us with an ongoing revenue share from the collection of fees from ADS holders, which is recognized under "Other operating income".
Other amounts refer to contract liabilities related to payments received from end customers in advance for goods that have been ordered but are not yet delivered. As of June 30, 2026 contract liabilities amounts to USD2,736 thousand (December 31, 2025: USD3,599 thousand).
21 Revenue

| In thousands of USD | | 2025 | | 2026 | | 2025 | | 2026 |

The Group's primary sources of revenue are first-party sales and third-party sales.
Revenue was USD102,555 thousand in the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to USD81,903 thousand in the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of 25.2%, reflecting sustained consumer demand and consistent execution across our platform. The growth rate was partly moderated by a higher share of third-party sales relative to first-party sales, as third-party transactions generate commission income rather than full sales revenue.
Revenue from first-party sales was USD45,896 thousand in the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to USD41,409 thousand in the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of 10.8%, driven by increased volume growth moderated by supply and demand headwinds in higher value electronic items, alongside the strong pace of marketplace growth.

31 Fair Values of Financial Instruments
Financial instruments comprise of financial assets and financial liabilities. Financial assets consist of term deposits and other financial assets, cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. Financial liabilities consist of borrowings and trade and other payables.
Management considers that the carrying amounts of financial assets measured at amortized cost, and financial liabilities in the financial statements approximate their fair values, due to their short term maturities.
Financial investments measured at fair value
As of June 30, 2026 other financial assets were measured using as inputs quoted prices in an active market, corresponding to the Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy of IFRS 13. These financial assets reached maturity during 2025 and were fully settled.
When transfers into and out of fair value hierarchy levels are required, it is the Group's policy to transfer the amounts at the end of the reporting period.
Amounts of other financial assets corresponding to the Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are transferred to Level 2 when quoted prices cease to be available. Level 2 measurements of fair value are determined by maximizing the use of market data other than the quoted price, such as interest rate yield curves and publicly available credit ratings. Conversely, amounts of other financial assets corresponding to the Level 2 are transferred to Level 1 when quoted prices become available.
32 Financial risk management
The Group is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The risks are monitored by appropriate management at each level. The Group’s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures, and financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Group’s policies. The Supervisory Board reviews and approves the policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarized below.
Market risk
Foreign currency risk
Due to its international business activities, the Group is exposed to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates in connection with trade payables and trade receivables resulting from purchase and sales transactions denominated in a different currency from the functional currency of the respective operation as well as intercompany financing. However, the Group maintains a natural hedge across most of the Group’s cash flows as the Group’s revenue streams are generated in local currencies matched by Group’s costs mostly incurred in the respective local currencies, limiting the risk of foreign currency exposure.
In respect of currency risk, management sets limits on the level of exposure by currency and in total. The positions are monitored monthly. The Group does not use derivatives as hedging instruments to limit its exposure from foreign currency risks.
Credit risk
Trade receivables
As of June 30, 2026, the Group has as an allowance for uncollectible receivables of USD2,415 thousand (December 31, 2025: USD3,153 thousand) as set out in the Note 11.
The Group evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables and contract assets as low, as its customers are located in several jurisdictions and industries and operate in largely independent markets.
Cash deposits
The expected credit losses (“ECL”) from cash and cash equivalents, are estimated by the Group as immaterial as of June 30, 2026, due to ratings of the financial institutions that indicate low credit risk.
Liquidity risk
As all funding has been exclusively obtained from the shareholders and there are no external borrowings, the Group does not incur an interest rate risk in this regard.
Based on the cash flow forecast for 2027 and 2028, the Group has sufficient liquidity as of June 30, 2026 for the next twelve months.
33 Commitments and contingencies
Tax contingencies
The Group has contingent liabilities related to potential tax claims arising in the ordinary course of business.
As of June 30, 2026, there are ongoing tax audits in various countries. Some of these tax inquiries have resulted in re-assessments, while others are still at an early stage and no re-assessment has yet been raised. Management is required to make estimates and judgments about the ultimate outcome of these investigations or litigation in determining legal provisions. Final claims or court rulings may differ from management estimates. In addition, Management is required to make estimates and judgments about the ultimate outcome of other tax risks that have not led to an investigation or litigation but that, based on Management’s own assessment, may lead to potential tax claims.
As of June 30, 2026, the Group has recognized tax provisions as described in Notes 19 and 28.
Furthermore, consistent with other multinational groups, the conflict between the Group’s international operating model, the jurisdictional approach of tax authorities and some domestic tax requirements in relation to withholding tax and VAT compliance and recoverability rules, could lead to a further USD18,293 thousand in additional uncertainty on tax positions. The likelihood of future economic outflows with regard to these potential tax claims is however considered as only possible, but not probable. Accordingly, no provision for a liability has been made in these consolidated financial statements.
The Group may also be subject to other tax claims for which the risk of future economic outflows is currently evaluated to be remote.
Other Commitments
The Group has committed to allocate USD53.6 million to a service supplier from December 2024 to April 2030. The commitment consists of an initial USD3.6 million through April 2025, followed by annual commitments of USD10.0 million for the subsequent five years. As of June 30, 2026 the remaining commitment is USD37.8 million, with USD7.8 million due by April 30, 2027 and USD10.0 million per annum for the subsequent three years.
34 Subsequent events
On August 11, 2026, the International Finance Corporation, a member of the World Bank Group, alongside current leading shareholders and selected new investors agreed to purchase 9.1 million ADSs at a price of $5.52 per ADS, resulting in expected gross proceeds to Jumia of $50.0 million. The transactions are subject to customary conditions and are expected to close in the second half of August 2026.
