of our KPIs meeting or exceeding guidance. The business added 11 million MAUs vs. guidance of 11 million, while Subscriber net additions of 6 million were 1 million ahead. Revenue grew 14% Y/Y on a constant currency* basis, reflecting
relatively consistent Premium growth and improved Ad-Supported performance. Gross Margin of 33.0% exceeded guidance and expanded 136 bps Y/Y, while Operating Income of €672 million outperformed guidance due to lower than forecast marketing and
personnel related costs and Gross Margin strength, partially offset by higher Social Charges. Social Charges of €22 million were €13 million above forecast due to share price movement during the quarter. Free Cash Flow* reached €735 million in
Q3, bringing LTM*** Free Cash Flow to €3.2 billion. Overall, we are very pleased with our performance heading into year-end and view the business as well positioned to deliver improved growth and margins in 2026.

Revenue Profitability Free Cash Flow & Liquidity Gross Margin was 33.0% in
Q3, up 136 bps Y/Y reflecting: Premium gains driven by Revenue growth outpacing music costs net of marketplace programs, audiobooks costs and video podcast costs; and Ad-Supported gains driven by Revenue growth alongside favorability in
podcast cost structure and Other Costs of Revenue Operating Income was €672 million in Q3 and reflected the above, along with: Growth in Operating Expenses driven by temporarily elevated growth in marketing and cloud/AI spend (excluding
Social Charges) Operating Expenses included €22 million in Social Charges on share-based compensation At the end of Q3, our workforce consisted of 7,284 full-time employees globally Revenue of €4,969 million grew 16% Y/Y in Q3 (or 14% Y/Y
constant currency*), reflecting: Premium Revenue** growth of 17% Y/Y (or 15% Y/Y constant currency*), driven by subscriber and ARPU gains; and Ad-Supported Revenue** growth of 10% Y/Y (or 9% Y/Y constant currency*) Currency movements aided
Total Revenue Y/Y growth by ~190 bps vs. guidance of ~200 bps Free Cash Flow* was €735 million in Q3. Our liquidity and balance sheet remained strong, with €9.9 billion in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short term
investments. Financial Summary * Constant Currency adjusted measures and Free Cash Flow are non-IFRS measures. See "Use of Non-IFRS Measures" and "Reconciliation of IFRS to Non-IFRS Results" for additional information. ** Effective January
1, 2026, certain revenue-generating activities previously reported within the Ad-Supported segment were transferred to the Premium segment to reflect changes in the financial information presented to the Group’s new Co-Chief Executive Officers,
who serve as the joint chief operating decision makers. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.
Advertising business driven by automated channels Ad-Supported Revenue* grew 10%
Y/Y (or 9% Y/Y constant currency**). On a constant currency basis, music advertising performance was driven by growth in impressions sold, partially offset by softness in pricing. Podcasting growth was led by sponsorship gains within our Owned
& Licensed portfolio. Automated sales channels continued to scale and remained the largest contributors to overall advertising growth. Revenue Premium growth driven by Subscriber and ARPU gains Premium Revenue* grew 17% Y/Y to €4,487
million (or 15% Y/Y constant currency**), reflecting 9% Y/Y Subscriber growth and Premium Average Revenue per User (ARPU) of €4.95, up 9.3% Y/Y (or 7.5% Y/Y constant currency). Excluding the impact of FX, ARPU growth was driven by price
increase benefits, partially offset by product/market mix. * Effective January 1, 2026, certain revenue-generating activities previously reported within the Ad-Supported segment were transferred to the Premium segment to reflect changes in the
financial information presented to the Group’s new Co-Chief Executive Officers, who serve as the joint chief operating decision makers. Prior period amounts since 2023 have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Premium Gross Margin* was 34.5% in Q3, up 130 bps Y/Y. The Y/Y trend was driven by
Revenue growth outpacing music costs net of marketplace programs, audiobooks costs and video podcast costs. Gross Margin Y/Y improvement driven by Premium and Ad-Supported gains Gross Margin finished at 33.0% in Q3, up 136 bps Y/Y. The Y/Y
trend was driven by improvement in both the Premium and Ad-Supported segments. Ad-Supported Gross Margin* was 18.7% in Q3, up 105 bps Y/Y. The Y/Y trend was driven by Revenue growth alongside favorability in podcast cost structure and Other
Costs of Revenue. * Effective January 1, 2026, certain revenue-generating activities previously reported within the Ad-Supported segment were transferred to the Premium segment to reflect changes in the financial information presented to the
Group’s new Co-Chief Executive Officers, who serve as the joint chief operating decision makers. Prior period amounts since 2023 have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. Comparative amounts for 2022 have not been
recast.
Operating Expenses increased ~26% Y/Y in Q3. Absent the effects of Y/Y movements
in currency and Social Charges, the 19% Y/Y increase in Operating Expenses was primarily driven by an increase in marketing alongside cloud and AI spend in support of growth initiatives. As a reminder, Social Charges are payroll taxes
associated with employee salaries and benefits in select countries where we operate. Since a portion of these taxes is tied to the intrinsic value of share-based compensation awards, movements in our stock price can lead to fluctuations in the
taxes we accrue. Share price movements this quarter resulted in Social Charges on share-based compensation coming in €13 million above forecast at €22 million in current period Operating Expenses. Prior year period Operating Expenses included
(€16) million in Social Charges. Operating Expenses Y/Y trend led by marketing and cloud spend * Last Twelve Months (LTM) represents annual performance covering the preceding 12 months relative to the last day of the quarter.
Free Cash Flow Q3 performance aids balance sheet strength Free Cash Flow* was
€735 million in Q3, reflecting our higher Net Income adjusted for non-cash items, offset by unfavorable movements in net working capital. Capital expenditures decreased €17 million Y/Y to €6 million. In Q3, trailing 12 month Free Cash Flow
expanded to €3.2 billion. On a cumulative basis, we have generated €9.5 billion of Free Cash Flow since the beginning of 2016, supporting our strong balance sheet and €9.9 billion in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short term
investments balance. We have repurchased $1.1 billion in shares year-to-date through October 21st, representing full neutralization of the dilution from our employee equity programs in 2026 and additional returns of excess cash. In aggregate,
we have bought back approximately 3 million shares since we resumed repurchase activity in August of 2025, or approximately 1.5% of shares outstanding. * Free Cash Flow is a non-IFRS measure. See "Use of Non-IFRS Measures" and "Reconciliation
of IFRS to Non-IFRS Results" for additional information. Cume represents cumulative performance since the beginning of 2016. ** Last Twelve Months (LTM) represents annual performance covering the preceding 12 months relative to the last day of

newsroom.spotify.com websites as well as other social media listed in the “Resources – Social Media” tab of our Investors website to disclose material company information. Use of Non-IFRS Measures To supplement our financial information
presented in accordance with IFRS, we use the following non-IFRS financial measures: Revenue excluding foreign exchange effect, Premium revenue excluding foreign exchange effect, Ad-Supported revenue excluding foreign exchange effect, gross
profit excluding foreign exchange effect, Operating Income excluding foreign exchange effect, Operating expense excluding foreign exchange effect, and Free Cash Flow. Management believes that Revenue excluding foreign exchange effect, Premium
revenue excluding foreign exchange effect, Ad-Supported revenue excluding foreign exchange effect, gross profit excluding foreign exchange effect, and Operating expense excluding foreign exchange effect, are useful to investors because they
present measures that facilitate comparison to our historical performance. However, these should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, Revenue, Premium revenue, Ad-Supported revenue, Gross Profit, Operating
Income, Operating expense, or other financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS. Management believes that Free Cash Flow is useful to investors because it presents a measure that approximates the amount of cash generated that is
available to repay debt obligations, to make investments, and for certain other activities that exclude certain infrequently occurring and/or non-cash items. However, Free Cash Flow should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for
or superior to, net cash flows (used in)/from operating activities or other financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS. For more information on these non-IFRS financial measures, please see “Reconciliation of IFRS to Non-IFRS Results”

liabilities associated with content made available on our premium service and ad-supported service (collectively, the “Service”); risks relating to acquisitions, investments, and divestitures; our dependence upon third-party licenses for most
of the content we stream; our lack of control over third-party content providers who are concentrated and can unilaterally affect our access to content; our ability to comply with complex license agreements; our ability to accurately estimate
royalty payments under our license agreements and relevant statutes; the limitations on our operating flexibility due to financial commitments required under certain of our license agreements; our ability to identify the compositions embodied

to attract, retain, and motivate highly skilled employees; our ability to access additional capital to support strategic objectives; risks relating to currency exchange rate fluctuations and foreign exchange controls; the impact of economic,
social, or political conditions, including slower growth or recession, inflation, changes in interest rates, changes in trade and tax policies, geopolitical conflicts, and related market uncertainty; our ability to accurately estimate user
metrics and other estimates; our ability to manage and remediate attempts to manipulate streams and attempts to gain or provide unauthorized access to certain features of our Service; risks related to our indebtedness; fluctuation of our
operating results and fair market value of ordinary shares; tax-related risks; the concentration of voting power among our founders, which limits shareholders’ ability to influence our governance and business; and risks related to our status as
a foreign private issuer and a Luxembourg company. A detailed discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from our estimates and forward-looking statements is included in
our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including our Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on February 10, 2026, as updated by subsequent reports filed with the SEC. We undertake no obligation to update

APPENDIX
Social Charges Sensitivity Meaningful movements in our stock price can lead to
Social Charge variance Our guidance incorporates the impact of Social Charges on share-based compensation, the vast majority of which appear in Operating Expenses. The amount of Social Charges we accrue for and ultimately pay can be volatile,
as they are tied to the value of our share price. Since we do not forecast stock price changes in our guidance, meaningful movements in our stock price over the course of a quarter can lead to meaningful changes in Social Charges. As an
example, at the Q3 close, our stock price was $487.38. In Q3, a 10% increase or decrease in our stock price compared to the quarter-end price would have an approximate +/- €20M impact on Social Charges.
