Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe that cash generated from our operating activities, commercial paper programs, and our senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”) will provide sufficient liquidity to meet our working capital needs, repayments of long-term debt, future contractual obligations, payment of our anticipated quarterly dividends, planned capital expenditures, restructuring expenditures, and contributions to our postemployment benefit plans for the next 12 months. An additional potential source of liquidity is access to capital markets. We intend to use our cash on hand and commercial paper programs for daily funding requirements.

Cash Flow Activity for the Six Months Ended June 28, 2025 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 29, 2024:

Net Cash Provided by/Used for Operating Activities:

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.9 billion for the six months ended June 28, 2025 compared to $1.7 billion for the six months ended June 29, 2024. This increase was primarily due to favorable changes in working capital, predominantly within accounts payable, as well as lower cash outflows from variable compensation in the 2025 period compared to the 2024 period. These impacts were partially offset by lower Adjusted Operating Income.

Net Cash Provided by/Used for Investing Activities:

Net cash used for investing activities was $1.3 billion for the six months ended June 28, 2025 compared to $632 million for the six months ended June 29, 2024. This change was primarily driven by the purchases of marketable securities in the 2025 period, partially offset by lapping our prior year payment to acquire the TGI Friday License, lower capital expenditures in the 2025 period compared to the 2024 period. We expect 2025 capital expenditures to be approximately $1.0 billion compared to the 2024 capital expenditures of $1.0 billion. Our 2025 capital expenditures are expected to be primarily driven by maintenance projects, investments in technology, capital investments focused on generating growth, including cost improvements, capacity expansion, and investments in warehouse.

Net Cash Provided by/Used for Financing Activities:

Net cash used for financing activities was $423 million for the six months ended June 28, 2025 compared to $1.6 billion for the six months ended June 29, 2024. This change was primarily driven by debt proceeds received from the issuance of the 2025 Notes in the current year period and decreased repurchases of common stock compared to the prior year period. See Note 14, Commitments, Contingencies, and Debt for additional information on our debt issuances.

Cash Held by International Subsidiaries:

Of the $1.6 billion cash and cash equivalents on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 28, 2025, $943 million was held by international subsidiaries.

Subsequent to January 1, 2018, we consider the unremitted earnings of certain international subsidiaries that impose local country taxes on dividends to be indefinitely reinvested. For those undistributed earnings considered to be indefinitely reinvested, our intent is to reinvest these funds in our international operations, and our current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate the accumulated earnings to fund our U.S. cash requirements. The amount of unrecognized deferred tax liabilities for local country withholding taxes that would be owed, if repatriated, related to our 2018 through 2025 accumulated earnings of certain international subsidiaries is approximately $90 million.

Our undistributed historic earnings in foreign subsidiaries through December 31, 2017 are currently not considered to be indefinitely reinvested. Our deferred tax liability associated with these undistributed historical earnings was insignificant at June 28, 2025 and December 28, 2024 and relates to local withholding taxes that would be owed when this cash is distributed.

Trade Payables Programs:

In order to manage our cash flow and related liquidity, we work with our suppliers to optimize our terms and conditions, which

include the extension of payment terms. We maintain agreements with third-party administrators that allow participating suppliers to track payment obligations from us, and, at the sole discretion of the supplier, sell one or more of those payment obligations to participating financial institutions. Our obligations to our suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment terms, are not impacted. Our current payment terms with our suppliers, which we deem to be commercially reasonable, generally range from 0 to 250 days. All amounts due to participating suppliers are paid to the third party on the original invoice due dates, regardless of whether a particular invoice was sold. The amounts confirmed outstanding under these programs were $752 million at June 28, 2025 and $745 million at December 28, 2024. The amounts were included in accounts payable on our consolidated balance sheets. See Note 13, Financing Arrangements, in Item 1, Financial Statements, for additional information on our trade payables programs.

Borrowing Arrangements:

From time to time, we obtain funding through our commercial paper programs. We had no commercial paper outstanding at June 28, 2025, at December 28, 2024, or during the six months ended June 28, 2025 or June 29, 2024.

Our Senior Credit Facility provides for a revolving commitment of $4.0 billion through July 8, 2030. Subject to certain conditions, we may increase the amount of revolving commitments and/or add tranches of term loans in a combined aggregate amount of up to $1.0 billion.

No amounts were drawn on our Senior Credit Facility at June 28, 2025 or December 28, 2024, or during thesix months ended June 28, 2025 or June 29, 2024.

Our credit agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants that are typical for these types of facilities and could, upon the occurrence of certain events of default, restrict our ability to access our Senior Credit Facility. We were in compliance with all financial covenants as of June 28, 2025.

Long-Term Debt:

Our long-term debt, including the current portion, was $21.2 billion at June 28, 2025 and $19.9 billion at December 28, 2024. This increase was primarily due to the issuance of the 2025 Notes, as well as changes in foreign currency exchange rates on our foreign-denominated debt, partially offset by the repayment of our 600 million euro senior notes due May 2025.

In the first quarter of 2025, KHFC, our 100% owned operating subsidiary, issued 600 million euro aggregate principal amount of 3.250% senior notes due March 2033, $500 million aggregate principal amount of 5.200% senior notes due March 2032, and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 5.400% senior notes due March 2035 (collectively, the “2025 Notes”). We used a portion of the net proceeds from the 2025 Notes to fund the 600 million euro senior notes that matured in May 2025 and expect to use the remaining net proceeds from the 2025 Notes for general corporate purposes, including our investment in certain marketable fixed-income debt securities that are classified as available-for-sale and to fund the repayment of outstanding indebtedness such as our $1.9 billion senior notes that mature in June 2026.

We have aggregate principal amounts of senior notes of approximately $1.9 billion maturing in June 2026.

We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through redemptions, tender offers, cash purchases, prepayments, refinancing, exchange offers, open market or privately negotiated transactions, Rule 10b5-1 plans, or otherwise.

Our long-term debt contains customary representations, covenants, and events of default. We were in compliance with all financial covenants as of June 28, 2025.

See Note 14, Commitments, Contingencies, and Debt, in Item 1, Financial Statements, for additional information on our long-term debt activity, Note 11, Financial Instruments, in Item 1, Financial Statements, for additional information on our available-for-sale securities, and Note 16, Debt, to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2024 for additional information on our borrowing arrangements and long-term debt.

Equity and Dividends:

We paid dividends on our common stock of $951 million for the six months ended June 28, 2025. Additionally, in the third quarter of 2025, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.40 per share of common stock, which is payable on September 26, 2025 to stockholders of record on August 29, 2025.

The declaration of dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and depends on various factors, including our net income, financial condition, cash requirements, future prospects, and other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant to its analysis and decision making.

On November 27, 2023, we announced that the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to purchase up to $3.0 billion, exclusive of fees, of the Company’s common stock through December 26, 2026. We are not obligated to repurchase any specific number of shares and the program may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time. Under the program, shares may be repurchased in open market transactions, including under plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), privately negotiated transactions, transactions structured through investment banking institutions, or other means. We purchased 6.8 million shares during the three months ended and 13.5 million shares during the six months ended June 28, 2025 and had approximately $1.5 billion remaining authorization under the share repurchase program as of June 28, 2025. The share repurchase program is in addition to our share repurchases to offset the dilutive effect of equity-based compensation.

Aggregate Contractual Obligations:

In the first quarter of 2025, we issued the 2025 Notes, which mature between 2032 and 2035. See Note 14, Commitments, Contingencies and Debt, in Item 1, Financial Statements, for additional information. There were no other material changes to our aggregate contractual obligations from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2024.

Supplemental Guarantor Information:

The Kraft Heinz Company (as the “Parent Guarantor”) fully and unconditionally guarantees all the senior unsecured registered notes (collectively, the “KHFC Senior Notes”) issued by KHFC, our 100% owned operating subsidiary (the “Guarantee”). See Note 14, Commitments, Contingencies, and Debt, in Item 1, Financial Statements, and Note 16, Debt, to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2024 for additional descriptions of these guarantees.

The payment of the principal, interest and premium, when applicable, on the KHFC Senior Notes is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Parent Guarantor, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the applicable indenture. None of the Parent Guarantor’s subsidiaries guarantee the KHFC Senior Notes.

The Guarantee is the Parent Guarantor’s senior unsecured obligation and is: (i)pari passu in right of payment with all of the Parent Guarantor’s existing and future senior indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to all of the Parent Guarantor’s future subordinated indebtedness; (iii) effectively subordinated to all of the Parent Guarantor’s existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets secured by that indebtedness; and (iv) effectively subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of the Parent Guarantor’s subsidiaries.

The KHFC Senior Notes are obligations exclusively of KHFC and the Parent Guarantor and not of any of the Parent Guarantor’s other subsidiaries. Substantially all of the Parent Guarantor’s operations are conducted through its subsidiaries. The Parent Guarantor’s other subsidiaries are separate legal entities that have no obligation to pay any amounts due under the KHFC Senior Notes or to make any funds available therefor, whether by dividends, loans, or other payments. Except to the extent the Parent Guarantor is a creditor with recognized claims against its subsidiaries, all claims of creditors (including trade creditors) and holders of preferred stock, if any, of its subsidiaries will have priority with respect to the assets of such subsidiaries over its claims (and therefore the claims of its creditors, including holders of the KHFC Senior Notes). Consequently, the KHFC Senior Notes are structurally subordinated to all liabilities of the Parent Guarantor’s subsidiaries and any subsidiaries that it may in the future acquire or establish. The obligations of the Parent Guarantor will terminate and be of no further force or effect in the following circumstances: (i) (a) KHFC’s exercise of its legal defeasance option or, except in the case of a guarantee of any direct or indirect parent of KHFC, covenant defeasance option in accordance with the applicable indenture, or KHFC’s obligations under the applicable indenture have been discharged in accordance with the terms of the applicable indenture or (b) as specified in a supplemental indenture to the applicable indenture; and (ii) the Parent Guarantor has delivered to the trustee an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in the applicable indenture have been complied with. The Guarantee is limited by its terms to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by the Parent Guarantor without rendering the Guarantee voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

The following tables present summarized financial information for the Parent Guarantor and KHFC (as subsidiary issuer of the KHFC Senior Notes) (together, the “Obligor Group”), on a combined basis after the elimination of all intercompany balances and transactions between the Parent Guarantor and subsidiary issuer and investments in any subsidiary that is a non-guarantor.
