COTY INC.

($ in millions, except per share data)

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Coty Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “Coty”) manufacture, market, sell and distribute branded beauty products, including fragrances, color cosmetics and skin & body related products throughout the world. Coty is a global beauty company with a rich entrepreneurial history and an iconic portfolio of brands.

The Company operates on a fiscal year basis with a year-end of June 30. Unless otherwise noted, any reference to a year preceded by the word “fiscal” refers to the fiscal year ended June 30 of that year. For example, references to “fiscal 2026” refer to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the term “includes” and “including” means, unless the context otherwise indicates, including without limitation.

The Company’s sales generally increase during the second fiscal quarter as a result of increased demand associated with the winter holiday season. Financial performance, working capital requirements, sales, cash flows and borrowings generally experience variability during the three to six months preceding the holiday season. Product innovations, new product launches and the size and timing of orders from the Company’s customers may also result in variability.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and include the Company’s consolidated domestic and international subsidiaries. Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying footnotes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2025. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. All dollar amounts (other than per share amounts) in the following discussion are in millions of United States (“U.S.”) dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents funds that are not readily available for general purpose cash needs due to contractual limitations. Restricted cash is classified as a current or long-term asset based on the timing and nature of when or how the cash is expected to be used or when the restrictions are expected to lapse. As of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the Company had restricted cash of $8.5 and $13.3, respectively, included in Restricted cash in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Restricted cash balance as of September 30, 2025 primarily provides collateral for certain bank guarantees on rent, customs and duty accounts and also consists of collections on factored receivables that remain unremitted to the factor as of September 30, 2025. Restricted cash is included as a component of Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

Equity Investments

The Company elected the fair value option to account for its investment in Rainbow JVCO LTD and subsidiaries (together, "Wella" or the “Wella Company”) to align with the Company’s strategy for this investment. The fair value is updated on a quarterly basis. The investment is classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy because the Company estimates the fair value of the investment using a combination of the income approach, the market approach and private transactions, when applicable. Changes in the fair value of equity investment under the fair value option are recorded in Other expense, net within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (see Note 6—Equity Investment).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Significant accounting policies that contain subjective management estimates and assumptions include those related to revenue recognition, the net realizable value of inventory, the fair value of equity investments, the assessment of goodwill, other intangible assets and long-lived assets for impairment and income taxes. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions. Significant changes, if any, in those estimates and assumptions will be reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in future periods.

Tax Information

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was 30.9% and 31.7%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily attributable to lower limitations on the deductibility of executive stock compensation and interest expense in the current period.

The effective tax rate of 30.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was higher than the Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the limitation on the deductibility of interest expense.

The effective tax rate of 31.7% in the three months ended September 30, 2024 was higher than the Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the limitation on the deductibility of executive stock compensation and the limitation on the deductibility of interest expense.

The effective income tax rates vary from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% due to the effect of (i) jurisdictions with different statutory rates, including impacts of rate changes, (ii) adjustments to the Company’s unrealized tax benefits (“UTBs”) and accrued interest, (iii) non-deductible expenses, (iv) audit settlements and (v) valuation allowance changes.

As of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the gross amount of UTBs was $241.8 and $240.8, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, the total amount of UTBs that, if recognized, would impact the effective income tax rate is $160.9. As of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the liability associated with UTBs, including accrued interest and penalties, was $198.9 and $194.3, respectively, which was recorded in Income and other taxes payable and Other noncurrent liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The total interest and penalties recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations related to UTBs was $1.1 and $3.8 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The total gross accrued interest and penalties recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025 was $37.7 and $36.6, respectively.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands annual income tax disclosure requirements to include additional information related to the rate reconciliation of our effective tax rates to statutory rates as well as additional disaggregation of taxes paid. The amendments in the ASU also remove disclosures related to certain unrecognized tax benefits and deferred taxes. The Company adopted the ASU in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and will include the required disclosures in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending June 30, 2026. The adoption of this standard did not have any impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which removes all references to software development project stages and requires entities to start capitalizing software costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or on a modified prospective basis. The ASU will be effective for Coty in the first quarter of fiscal 2029. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The update offers a practical expedient under which entities can elect to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, which is Coty fiscal 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.

3. SEGMENT REPORTING

Operating and reportable segments (referred to as “segments”) reflect the way the Company is managed and for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the Company's CODM in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company has designated its Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") as the CODM.

Certain income and shared costs and the results of corporate initiatives are managed by Corporate. Corporate primarily includes stock compensation expense, restructuring and realignment costs, costs related to acquisition and divestiture activities, and impairments of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangibles that are not attributable to ongoing operating activities of the segments. Corporate costs are not used by the CODM to measure the underlying performance of the segments.

With the exception of goodwill and acquired intangible assets, the Company does not identify or monitor assets by segment. The Company does not present assets by reportable segment since various assets are shared between reportable segments. The allocation of goodwill by segment is presented in Note 7—Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, net.

We have identified and presented significant segment expenses, which are included in the table below. The CODM evaluates operating income (loss) to assess segment performance, make operating decisions, and allocate resources amongst the segments by comparing budget to historical actual results.

(a) Other segment items primarily include administrative costs, logistics costs, stock compensation expense, amortization of definite-lived intangible assets, restructuring costs, transactional foreign exchange gains/losses, bad debt expense, and other miscellaneous costs.

Fragrance products include a variety of perfumes, colognes, and mists offering various scents to suit individual preferences and occasions. Color Cosmetic products include lip, eye, facial and other color products including nail color. Body care and other products include shower gels, body sprays, and deodorants. Skincare products include moisturizers, serums, sun treatment, cleansers, toners and anti-aging creams designed to nourish, protect and improve the skin's appearance and health.

Presented below are the percentage of net revenues associated with the Company’s product categories:

4. RESTRUCTURING COSTS

Fixed Cost Reduction Plan

On April 24, 2025, the Company announced a new plan to strengthen its operating model and simplify its fixed cost structure (the “Fixed Cost Reduction Plan”). Total restructuring charges, which consisted of employee severance, have been recorded in Corporate. The related liability balances were $71.0 and $74.1 at September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively.

Current Restructuring Actions and Other

The Company continues to analyze its cost structure and evaluate opportunities to streamline operations through a range of smaller initiatives and other cost reduction activities to optimize operations in select businesses. The liability, which consisted primarily of employee severance, balances were$28.1 and$30.4 at September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025 respectively. The Company estimates that the total remaining accrual of $28.1 will result in cash expenditures of approximately $14.5, $10.3, and $3.3 in fiscal 2026, 2027 and thereafter, respectively.

(a)As of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the Company's stake in Wella was 25.84%.

The following table presents summarized financial information of the Company’s equity method investees for the period ending September 30, 2025. Amounts presented represent combined totals at the investee level and not the Company’s proportionate share:

The following table summarizes movements in the equity investment with fair value option that is classified within Level 3 for the period ended September 30, 2025. There were no internal movements to or from Level 3 and Level 1 or Level 2 for the period ended September 30, 2025.

Level 3 significant unobservable inputs sensitivity

The following table summarizes the significant unobservable inputs used in Level 3 valuation of the Company's investment carried at fair value as of September 30, 2025. Included in the table are the inputs or range of possible inputs that have an effect on the overall valuation of the financial instruments.

(a)The primary unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company's equity investment with fair value option, when using a discounted cash flow method, are the discount rate and revenue growth rate. Significant increases (decreases) in the discount rate in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. The Company estimates the discount rate based on the investees' projected cost of equity and debt. The revenue growth rate is forecasted for future years by the investee based on their best estimates. Significant increases (decreases) in the revenue growth rate in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

(b)The primary unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company's equity investment with fair value option, when using a market multiple method, are the revenue multiple and EBITDA multiple. Significant increases (decreases) in the revenue multiple or EBITDA multiple in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. The market multiples are derived from a group of guideline public companies.

The Company also subleases certain office facilities to third parties when the Company no longer intends to utilize the space. None of the Company’s leases restrict the payment of dividends or the incurrence of debt or additional lease obligations, or contain significant purchase options.

Fair Value of Debt

The fair value of the 2023 Coty Revolving Credit Facility is equal to its carrying value, as the liability can be settled at par value. The Company uses the market approach to value its other debt instruments. The Company obtains fair values from independent pricing services or utilizes the U.S. dollar SOFR curve to determine the fair value of these debt instruments. Based on the assumptions used to value these liabilities at fair value, these debt instruments are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The Company may reduce its exposure to fluctuations in the cash flows associated with changes in foreign exchange rates by creating offsetting positions through the use of derivative instruments and also by designating foreign currency denominated borrowings and cross-currency swaps as hedges of net investments in foreign subsidiaries. The Company expects that through hedging, any gain or loss on the derivative instruments would generally offset the expected increase or decrease in the value of the underlying forecasted transactions.

As of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the notional amount of the outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges were $19.1 and $17.3, respectively.

The Company also uses certain derivatives not designated as hedging instruments consisting primarily of foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency swaps to hedge intercompany transactions and foreign currency denominated external debt. Although these derivatives were not designated for hedge accounting, the overall objective of mitigating foreign currency exposure is the same for all derivative instruments. For derivatives not designated as hedging instruments, changes in fair value are recorded in the line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations to which the derivative relates. As of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the notional amounts of these outstanding non-designated foreign currency forward contracts were $883.5 and $1,102.5, respectively.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate fluctuations related to its variable rate debt instruments. The Company may reduce its exposure to fluctuations in the cash flows associated with changes in the variable interest rates by entering into offsetting positions through the use of derivative instruments, such as interest rate swap contracts. The interest rate swap contracts result in recognizing a fixed interest rate for the portion of the Company’s variable rate debt that was hedged. This will reduce the negative and positive impact of increases in the variable rates over the term of the contracts. Hedge effectiveness of interest rate swap contracts is based on a long-haul hypothetical derivative methodology and includes all changes in value.

In addition, the Company from time to time uses cross-currency swaps to economically lower the interest rate on our loan portfolio. In January and April 2025, the Company entered into cross-currency swap contracts designated as hedges of net investment in a certain foreign subsidiary to effectively reduce the interest rates on the 2030 and 2029 Dollar Senior Secured Notes from 6.625% and 4.75% in U.S. dollars to 2.671% and 1.248% in Swiss Franc, respectively. The cross-currency swaps will expire upon maturity of the respective debt.

Net Investment Hedge

Foreign currency gains and losses on borrowings designated as a net investment hedge, except ineffective portions, are reported in the cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”) component of AOCI/(L), along with the foreign currency translation adjustments on those investments.

In January and April 2025, the Company expanded its net investment hedge activity by entering into cross-currency swaps with a gross notional value at inception of $750.0 and ₣676.9 (Swiss Franc) and $250.0 and ₣203.6 million, respectively, maturing in July 2030 and January 2029, respectively, and designated these cross-currency swaps as hedges of its net investment in a certain foreign subsidiary.

As of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the nominal exposures of foreign currency denominated borrowings designated as net investment hedges were €1,705.3 million and €1,593.9 million, respectively. All designated hedge amounts were considered highly effective.

Forward Repurchase Contracts

In December 2022 and November 2023, the Company entered into certain forward repurchase contracts to start hedging for potential $196.0 and $294.0 share buyback programs, in 2025 and 2026, respectively. These forward repurchase contracts are accounted for at fair value, with changes in the fair value recorded in Other expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In December 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to extend the maturity date of the December 2022 forward repurchase contracts byone year. Refer to Note 13—Equity and Convertible Preferred Stock.

In February 2025, the Company paid $191.1 in Hedge Valuation Adjustments on the forward repurchase contracts. In August 2025, the Company paid $53.9 in Hedge Valuation Adjustments on the forward repurchase contracts. Refer to Note 13—Equity and Convertible Preferred Stock.

Derivative and non-derivative financial instruments which are designated as hedging instruments:

Foreign currency borrowings classified as net investment hedges—The accumulated loss on foreign currency borrowings classified as net investment hedges in the foreign currency translation adjustment component of AOCI/(L) was $(92.2) and $(91.6) as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively.

Cross-currency swap instruments classified as net investment hedges—The accumulated loss on derivative instruments classified as net investment hedges in the foreign currency translation adjustment component of AOCI/(L) was $(117.5) and $(113.2) as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively.

Treasury Stock

Share Repurchase Program

Since February 2014, the Board has authorized the Company to repurchase its Class A Common Stock under approved repurchase programs. On February 3, 2016, the Board authorized the Company to repurchase up to $500.0 of its Class A Common Stock, and on November 13, 2023, the Board increased the Company's share repurchase authorization by an additional $600.0 (the “Share Repurchase Program”). Repurchases may be made from time to time at the Company’s discretion, based on ongoing assessments of the capital needs of the business, the market price of its Class A Common Stock, and general market conditions. As of September 30, 2025, the Company has $796.8 remaining under the Share Repurchase Program.

In December 2022 and November 2023, the Company entered into forward repurchase contracts with three large financial institutions (“Counterparties”) to start hedging for potential $196.0 and $294.0 share buyback programs in 2025 and 2026, respectively. In December 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to extend the maturity date of the December 2022 forward repurchase contracts byone year to December 2025 if net cash settlement is elected, or to January 2026 with physical settlement.

As part of the agreements, the Company will pay interest on the outstanding underlying notional amount of the forward repurchase contracts held by the Counterparties during the contract periods. The interest rates are variable, based on the United States secured overnight funding rate (“SOFR”) plus a spread. The weighted average interest rate plus applicable spread for the December 2022 and November 2023 forward repurchase transactions were 6.8% and 7.2%, respectively, as of September 30, 2025.

In addition, the forward repurchase contracts include a provision for a potential true-up in cash upon specified changes in the price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock relative to the Initial Price (“Hedge Valuation Adjustment”). Such Hedge Valuation Adjustment shall not result in a termination date or any adjustment of the number of Coty’s Class A Common Stock shares purchased by the Counterparties at inception.

In October 2024, the price of Coty’s Class A shares declined below the threshold specified in the Hedge Valuation Adjustment for the November 2023 forward repurchase contracts, which resulted in a cash payment of $61.8 to the Counterparties. In November 2024, the Company entered into agreements with the Counterparties for a temporary contractual amendment to the Hedge Valuation Adjustment, which was effective from October 2024 through February 2025, resulting in a refund of $61.8 from the Counterparties. The amendment did not apply to the December 2022 forward repurchase contracts.

In February 2025, the price of Coty’s Class A shares declined below the threshold specified in the Hedge Valuation Adjustment for the forward repurchase contracts, which resulted in a cash payment of $191.1 to the Counterparties. This resulted in a downward adjustment to the initial price at acquisition for these forward repurchase contracts.

In August 2025, the price of Coty's Class A shares declined below the threshold specified in the Hedge Valuation Adjustment for the forward repurchase contracts, which resulted in a cash payment of $53.9 to the Counterparties. This resulted in a downward adjustment to the initial price at acquisition for these forward repurchase contracts.

Since the forward repurchase contracts permit a net cash settlement alternative in addition to the physical settlement, the Company accounted for the forward repurchase contracts initially and subsequently at their fair value, with changes in the fair value recorded in Other expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. See Note 12—Derivative Instruments for additional information.

Performance Restricted Stock Units

The Company grantedno and 0.1 million shares of PRSUs, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The Company recognized share-based compensation expense of $1.1 and $3.7 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, of which $0.3 and $1.8 related to Ms. Nabi's award, as described below.

Long-term Equity Program for CEO

Pursuant to the term of the amended employment agreement on May 4, 2023, the Company granted its CEO, Sue Nabi, a one-time award of 10,416,667 RSUs and will grant a total of 10,416,665 PRSUs in five equal tranches over the next five years. These two awards will vest periodically over the next seven years in accordance with the terms discussed below.

Ms. Nabi's 10,416,667 RSUs will vest and settle in shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share over five years on the following vesting schedule: (i)15% on September 1, 2024, (ii)15% on September 1, 2025, (iii)20% on September 1, 2026, (iv)20% on September 1, 2027; and (v)30% on September 1, 2028, in each case subject to Ms. Nabi’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date. The Company will recognize approximately $109.6 of share-based compensation expense, on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the fair value on the grant date, net of forfeitures. The amount of compensation cost recognized at each vesting date must at least equal the portion of the award legally vested.

The first and second tranche of Ms. Nabi's PRSU award of 2,083,333 shares each shall fully vest on September 1, 2026 and 2027, respectively, subject to the achievement ofthree-year performance objectives determined by the Board on September 28, 2023 and October 2, 2024 (the grant dates), respectively, and subject to Ms. Nabi’s continued employment. The next three tranches of 2,083,333 PRSUs will be granted on or around each September 1 of 2025 through 2027, which shall vest on the third-year anniversary of the respective grant date, subject in each case to the achievement ofthree-year performance objectives to be determined by the Board. The Company will recognize share-based compensation expense associated with these PRSUs, on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the fair value on the grant date when it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved.

In the event that JAB and Ms. Nabi sell shares of Common Stock for cash in a privately negotiated transaction, subject to Board approval, the Company will grant Ms. Nabi new options to acquire shares of Common Stock (the “Reload Options”) in an amount equal to the number of shares sold by Ms. Nabi in such transaction. The Reload Options will have a strike price equal to the greater of the volume weighted average price for shares at the time of the relevant transaction and the fair market value on the date of grant. The potential expense attributed to the Reload Options will be recognized when the Reload Options are granted.

15. NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO COTY INC. PER COMMON SHARE

Reconciliation between the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted income per share (“EPS”) computations is presented below:

(a) For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, outstanding stock options with rights to purchase 3.4 million and 3.5 million shares, respectively, of Common Stock were anti-dilutive and excluded from the computation of diluted EPS. Series A Preferred Stock hadno dilutive effect, as the exchange right expired on March 27, 2024.

(b) For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, there were 13.3 million and 0.0 anti-dilutive RSUs, respectively, excluded from the computation of Diluted EPS.

(c) For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, no dilutive shares of Convertible Series B Preferred Stock were included in the computation of diluted EPS as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

(d) For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, no dilutive shares of the Forward Repurchase Contracts were included in the computation of diluted EPS as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

(e) Diluted EPS is adjusted by the effect of dilutive securities, including awards under the Company's equity compensation plans, the Convertible Series B Preferred Stock, and the Forward Repurchase Contracts. When calculating any potential dilutive effect of stock options, Series A Preferred Stock, restricted stock, and RSUs, the Company uses the treasury method and the if-converted method for the Convertible Series B Preferred Stock and the Forward Repurchase Contracts. The treasury method typically does not adjust the net income attributable to Coty Inc., while the if-converted method requires an adjustment to reverse the impact of the preferred stock dividends of $3.3, and to reverse the impact of fair market value losses for contracts with the option to settle in shares or cash of $26.5 and $24.6, respectively, if dilutive, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 on net income applicable to common stockholders during the period.

16. REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

Subsidiary in the Middle East

As of September 30, 2025, the noncontrolling interest holder in the Company’s subsidiary in the Middle East had a 25% ownership share. The Company adjusts the redeemable noncontrolling interests (“RNCI”) to redemption value at the end of each reporting period with changes recognized as adjustments to APIC. The Company recognized $91.4 and $94.2 as the RNCI balances as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively.

17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Matters

The Company is involved, from time to time, in various litigation, administrative and other legal proceedings, including regulatory actions, incidental or related to its business, including consumer class or collective actions, personal injury (mostly involving allegations related to alleged asbestos in the Company’s talc-based cosmetic products as described below), intellectual property, competition, compliance and advertising claims litigation and disputes, among others (collectively, “Legal Proceedings”). While the Company cannot predict any final outcomes relating thereto, management believes that the outcome of current Legal Proceedings will not have a material effect upon its business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or the trading price of the Company’s securities. However, management’s assessment of the Company’s current Legal Proceedings is ongoing, and could change in light of the discovery of additional facts with respect to Legal Proceedings not presently known to the Company, further legal analysis, or determinations by judges, arbitrators, juries or other finders of fact or deciders of law which are not in accord with management’s evaluation of the probable liability or outcome of such Legal Proceedings. From time to time, the Company is in discussions with regulators, including discussions initiated by the Company, about actual or potential violations of law in order to remediate or mitigate associated legal or compliance risks and liabilities or penalties. As the outcomes of such proceedings are unpredictable, the Company can give no assurance that the results of any such proceedings will not materially affect its reputation, business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or the trading price of its securities.

Cosmetic Talcum Powder Matters. The Company has been named as a defendant in numerous civil actions alleging that certain cosmetic talcum powder products sold by the Company were contaminated with asbestos leading to bodily injury. Most of these actions involve a number of co-defendants and, to date, many such actions have been resolved by settlement or other resolution acceptable to the Company. In each of the previous fiscal years the value of settlements, both individually and in the aggregate, has not been material but, due to the rising number of filed and pending cases against the Company, as well as the evolving litigation landscape, settlement values and other costs associated with these cases are likely to increase in the future. The Company believes that a limited portion of its costs incurred in defending and resolving certain of these claims will be covered by insurance policies issued by several insurance carriers, subject to deductibles, exclusions, retentions and policy limits and in some cases there may be indemnity obligations of third parties. While the Company and its legal counsel intend to continue to defend these cases vigorously, there can be no assurances regarding the ultimate resolution of these matters, individually or collectively. The Company has accrued for such litigation when the likelihood of loss is probable and a reasonable estimate of such loss can be made, and such accruals are not material to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. However, the range of reasonably possible losses in excess of accrued liabilities currently cannot be reasonably estimated.

Brazilian Tax Assessments

The Company’s Brazilian subsidiaries receive tax assessments from local, state and federal tax authorities in Brazil from time to time. Current open tax assessments as of September 30, 2025 are:

(a) During the current quarter, the tax assessment was revised as the case progressed through the Brazilian judicial system. As part of this reassessment, previously applied penalties were excluded in accordance with applicable tax regulations. As a result, the total liability was reduced compared to the prior assessment in the previous fiscal year.

(b) During the current quarter, the administrative case was decided in Coty's favor and prevailed against the tax authorities' appeal.

For the Goiás State tax ICMS assessment received in August 2020, the Company has in parallel a judicial case about an additional claim for fees over the tax incentive ("the Protege Fee") wherein the Company asserts such fee was not enforceable against Coty due to its prior contractual agreement with the Goiás State. In the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company filed appeals to be remitted to the third instance Brazilian Superior Court of Justice and, in the last quarter of fiscal 2024, a judge of the Superior Court of Justice ruled against the Company. The Company filed an interlocutory appeal for the full bench of judges on the Superior Court of Justice to review the case, and the court rendered a verdict granting the Company's request to remand the case to the state court of Goiás in the first quarter of the fiscal year. The case is expected to be heard in the second half of the current fiscal year. The Company has been required to provide surety bonds of R$196.6 million (approximately $36.9) and cash deposits of R$197.1 million (approximately $37.0) as of September 30, 2025, to guarantee payment if the case is resolved against Coty. The cash deposits are included in the Other Noncurrent Assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

In relation to the judicial case for the Goiás State tax ICMS assessment received in August 2020, an additional case has moved into the judicial court in October 2024, relating to a tax assessment demanding payment of the underlying ICMS taxes due to non-payment of the Protege Fee. The case is running in parallel of the Protege Fee case above. In the third quarter of fiscal 2025, the Goiás State filed a tax enforcement against the Company to collect the ICMS taxes. In response to the enforcement, the Company has filed a motion to stay against the Goiás State seeking the dismissal of the ICMS tax collection and is currently awaiting a decision from the tax authorities. The Company has been required to provide surety bonds of R$446.2 million (approximately $83.8) as of September 30, 2025, to guarantee payment if the case is resolved against Coty.

The Minas Gerais State tax ICMS assessment received in November 2020 is currently at the judicial process. The Company has been required to provide surety bonds of R$347.4 million (approximately $65.3) as of September 30, 2025, to guarantee payment if the case is resolved against the Company.

All other cases are currently in the administrative process.

The Company expects that cases may move from the administrative to the judicial process in case Coty does not receive a favorable decision at the administrative level, although the exact timing is uncertain. For cases in the judicial process, the Company will be required to make a judicial deposit or enter into a surety bond for the disputed tax assessment, interest and penalties. The judicial process in Brazil is likely to take a number of years to conclude. The Company is seeking favorable judicial and administrative decisions on the tax enforcement actions filed by the tax authorities for these assessments. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses and it has not recognized a loss for these assessments as the Company does not believe a loss is probable.

18. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Performance Guarantee

In connection with the sales of certain businesses, the Company has assigned its rights and obligations under a real estate lease to JAB Partners LLP. The remaining term of this lease is approximatelysix years. While the Company is no longer the primary obligor under this lease, the lessor has not completely released the Company from its obligation, and holds it secondarily liable in the event that the assignee defaults on the lease. The maximum potential future payments that the Company could be required to make, if the assignee was to default as of September 30, 2025, would be approximately $3.1. The Company has assessed the probability of default by the assignee and has determined it to be remote.

Wella

On December 22, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with Rainbow UK Bidco Limited (“KKR Bidco”) (an affiliate of funds and/or separately managed accounts advised and/or managed by KKR), related to post-closing adjustments to the purchase consideration for the Coty’s Professional and Retail Hair businesses, including the Wella, Clairol, OPI and ghd brands, (together, the “Wella Business”). In relation to this agreement, the Company recognized a gain of $3.4 in the three months ended September 30, 2025, and $0.9 in the three months ended September 30, 2024, which is reported in Other expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As of September 30, 2025, Coty owned 25.84% of Wella as an equity investment and performs certain services to Wella. Refer to Note 6— Equity Investment.

In connection with the sale of the Wella Business, the Company and Wella continue to have in place manufacturing arrangements to facilitate the Wella Business transition in the U.S. and Brazil. Fees earned were $1.6 and $1.4 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Fees are principally invoiced on a cost plus basis and were included in Selling, general and administrative expenses and Cost of sales, respectively, in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The Company also entered into an agreement with Wella to provide management, consulting and financial services. The Company earned $0.4 and $0.3 in the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which are reflected in Other expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As of September 30, 2025, accounts receivable from and accounts payable to Wella of $41.5 and $0.4, respectively, were included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other current liabilities, respectively, in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Coty will continue to recognize the share-based compensation expense for Wella employees until the existing equity awards reach their vesting date. For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, Coty recorded $0.0 and $0.4, respectively, of share-based compensation expense related to Wella employees, which was presented as part of Other expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company has certain sublease arrangements with Wella after the sale of the Wella Business. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported sublease income from Wella of $1.3. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company reported sublease income from Wella of $2.1.

19. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 15, 2025, the Company issued an aggregate principal of $900.0 of 5.600% senior notes due 2031 (the “2031 Senior Notes”) in a private offering. Coty received net proceeds of $888.0 in connection with the offering of the 2031 Senior Notes. On October 17, 2025, the Company used proceeds from the offering to redeem the remaining $350.0 outstanding under the 2026 Dollar Senior Secured Notes, and €450.0 million (approximately $520.0) of the 2026 Euro Senior Secured Notes.
