Subsequently, the Company proactively engaged with the tax authorities, Table of Contents Notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements (in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated) VEON Ltd | Unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods ended September 30, 2025 10

OPERATING ACTIVITIES OF THE GROUP 2 SEGMENT INFORMATION Management analyzes the Company’s operating segments separately because of different economic environments and stages of development in different geographical areas, requiring different investment and marketing strategies. Management evaluates the performance of the Company’s segments on a regular basis, primarily based on earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortization, impairment, gain / loss on disposals of non-current assets, other non-operating gains / losses, share of profit / loss of joint ventures and associates and listing expense (“Adjusted EBITDA”) along with assessing the capital expenditures excluding certain costs such as those for telecommunication licenses and right-of-use assets (“CAPEX excl. licenses and ROU”). Management does not analyze assets or liabilities by reportable segments. Reportable segments in accordance with IFRS 8, Operating Segments, consist of Pakistan, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Bangladesh. We also present our results of operations for “HQ and eliminations” and "Others" separately, although these are not reportable segments. “HQ, eliminations and Others” represents our operations in Kyrgyzstan and transactions related to management activities within the Group.

September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 Current liability 7 6 Non-current liability 5 9 Total liability for share-based payments 12 15 Umbrella Incentive Plan In May 2025 the Remuneration Committee approved the VEON Ltd. Umbrella Incentive Plan (“Umbrella Plan”). Following the HQ move to Dubai this plan will help to establish a flexible, market-aligned framework that consolidates the Performance Share Award and Deferred Share Award plan rule into a single plan designed to support retention, reward performance, and align with shareholder interests. On August 15, 2025, certain operating company executives were granted LTI award of 24,058 equity-settled ADSs (equivalent to 601,450 common shares) and 1,022 cash-settled ADSs (equivalent to 25,550 common shares) under the Umbrella Plan. These awards are subject to a market condition tied to an absolute share price target, applicable to the total number of shares granted. These grants have a three-year performance period with vesting scheduled for December 31, 2027. The fair value of the awards with market performance condition was determined using the Monte Carlo simulation that takes into account the likelihood of the performance condition being satisfied. The following table sets forth the principal assumptions applied by VEON in determining the fair value of the newly issued equity settled share-based payment instruments with market performance conditions and for liability-settled awards with market performance conditions remeasured at September 30, 2025: Assumptions affecting inputs to fair value model Equity-settled Cash-settled liability Annual risk-free rates of return and discount rates (%) 3.73 % 3.62 % Long-term dividend yield (%) — % — % Volatility of share price (%) 43.09 % 44.45 % Share price (p)* $ 2.32 $ 2.18 * To ensure data consistency, all awards were converted to VEON common share price equivalents. Deferred Share Plan During Q3 2025, a total of 88,031 ADSs (equivalent to 2,200,775 common shares) were transferred to employees in settlement of various equity awards that vested in December 2024, March 2025, and April 2025. In connection with these transfers, 16,979 ADSs (equivalent to 424,466 common shares) were withheld to satisfy such employees’ tax withholding obligations. During Q3 2025, 4,754 ADSs (equivalent to 118,850 common shares) and 41 ADSs (equivalent to 1,025 common shares) originally granted as equity-settled awards to a former GEC and an employee, respectively, were reclassified as cash-settled awards and fully settled during the quarter. In addition, in July 2025, 26,433 ADSs (equivalent to 660,819 common shares) classified as cash-settled awards were paid and settled for a former employee. On September 23, 2025, an employee irrevocably and unconditionally surrendered an equity-settled award of 41 ADSs (equivalent to 1,025 common shares) without consideration. As a result, the award was cancelled and lapsed with immediate effect Table of Contents Notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements (in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated) VEON Ltd | Unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods ended September 30, 2025 15

On August 26, 2025, two equity-settled awards of 20,000 ADSs (equivalent to 500,000 common shares) and 10,953 ADSs (equivalent to 273,825 common shares) that were granted and vested in April 2024 were transferred to a VEON board member. The transfer was completed upon the expiration of the applicable restriction period. In addition, on July 31, 2025, 10,953 ADSs (equivalent to 273,825 common shares) classified as cash-settled awards were paid and settled for a former Board Member. Long-Term Incentive Plan During Q3 2025, a total of 96,989 ADSs (equivalent to 2,424,725 common shares) were transferred to the operating company executives in connection with the equity awards that vested in December 2024. In connection with these transfers, 4,631 ADSs (equivalent to 115,786 common shares) were withheld to satisfy the recipients' tax withholding obligations. On September 15, 2025, a total of 109,160 ADSs (equivalent to 2,729,000 common shares) were transferred to a member of GEC. These equity awards were originally granted on January 10, 2024, and vested on July 31, 2024. The transfer was completed following the expiration of the Regulation S Category 3 holding period in August 2025.

4 INCOME TAXES Income tax expense is the total of the current and deferred income taxes. The Group calculates the period income tax expense using the tax rate that would be applicable to the expected total annual earnings. Income tax expense consisted of the following for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30: Nine-month period Three-month period 2025 2024 2025 2024 Current income taxes (259) (196) (39) (49) Deferred income taxes 129 35 (5) (18) Income taxes (130) (161) (44) (67) Effective tax rate 17.8 % 29.0 % (53.0) % 22.8 % In December 2024, VEON Ltd. redomiciled from the Netherlands with a statutory tax rate of 25.8% to United Arab Emirates which has a statutory tax rate of 9%. The Group’s effective corporate income tax rate for the nine- and three-month periods ending September 30, 2025, was 17.8% and (53.0)%, respectively, compared to the statutory tax rate of 9% in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The negative rate in the three-month period reflects Group-level consolidated losses arising from subsidiary disposals (Kyrgyzstan) and listing expense, while certain subsidiaries generated taxable profits and recorded current income tax expense in their local jurisdictions. The nine- month effective rate is attributable to the normalization of tax outcomes following completion of the Deodar transaction in Q2 2025 in addition to lower overall profit before tax due to disposals and listing expense. Global Minimum Tax The Group is in scope of the enacted Pillar Two legislation and has performed an assessment of the Group’s exposure to Pillar Two income taxes. The assessment of the potential exposure to Pillar Two income taxes is based on the most recent tax filings, country-by-country reporting and financial statements for the constituent entities in the Group. Based on the assessment, the Pillar Two effective tax rates in the majority of jurisdictions in which the Group operates are above 15%. As of September 2025, the Group has accumulated approximately US$9,018 of tax losses and US$417 of other tax attributes across various jurisdictions, which can be carried forward and utilized against future taxable profits. The Group has applied the International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 12 exception to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes.

INVESTING ACTIVITIES OF THE GROUP 5 SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 NASDAQ listing of Kyivstar Group via de-SPAC transaction As disclosed in Note 1, on August 14, 2025, Cohen Circle (or SPAC), merged with a subsidiary of the Company, with Cohen Circle surviving the merger. As part of this transaction, Kyivstar Group effectively acquired SPAC’s net assets of approximately US$162 (consisting of US$178 in cash and liabilities of US$16 in accrued transaction costs), in exchange for Kyivstar Group common shares, vesting securities and warrants. As a result of the transaction, Kyivstar Group recognized a listing expense calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred above the net assets of Cohen Circle. The listing expense of US$162 was recognized in accordance with IFRS 2 and calculated based on the total fair value of equity issued of US$324, net of the SPAC's net assets acquired of US$162. As a result, VEON’s interest in Kyivstar Group decreased from 100% to 89.6% and the Group recognized a non-controlling interest, measured utilizing a proportionate interest method, of US$356 adjusted by a re- attributed portion of accumulated currency translation loss related to the non-controlling interest of US$215. The Group also incurred US$30 of transaction costs that were deducted from the net proceeds from the transaction. The following table summarizes the proceeds raised net of transaction costs incurred in relation to the transaction: Amount SPAC cash balance 178 SPAC accrued transaction costs (16) SPAC cash net of transaction costs 162 Transaction costs incurred by VEON (30) Net proceeds from the transaction 132 The following table provides the snapshot of fair value of consideration and calculation of listing expense: USD in millions, except share/warrant and per share/warrant data Per share/warrant value Shares / Warrants Fair Value Ordinary shares $ 12.70 22,597,245 287 Vesting securities - Tranche 1 $ 8.70 661,919 6 Vesting securities - Tranche 2 $ 8.10 661,919 5 Warrants fair value (Note 9) $ 3.35 7,666,629 26 Fair value of consideration 324 Cohen Circle Net Assets Acquired 162 Excess of fair value of consideration over Cohen Circle’s net assets (IFRS 2 Charge for listing service) 162 The Group issued 7,666,629 warrants in exchange for each of the 7,666,629 issued and outstanding Cohen Circle warrants that were automatically surrendered at the closing date of the transaction. These warrants have been determined to be derivative instruments that will or might be settled other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash for a fixed number of own equity instruments, they meet the definition of financial liabilities. The Group has determined that the warrants should be classified as derivative financial liabilities under IFRS and measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the income statement (refer to Note 9 for further details). The vesting securities represent a potential contingent payment arrangement which are considered a share-based payment under IFRS 2. The vesting is based on a market condition, linked to Kyivstar Group's share price. There is no service condition attached to the vesting of the shares. As a result, this condition is considered to be a non-vesting condition rather than a market condition. The non-vesting condition was taken into account when estimating the grant date fair value of the vesting shares issued. The IFRS 2 fair value of the vesting securities was calculated and included in the determination of the listing expense recognized in the income statement. As the vesting securities are classified as an equity-settled share-based payment, there is no subsequent remeasurement of these securities. The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the fair value of the vesting securities. The use of the Monte Carlo simulation model required the Company to make estimates and assumptions, such as expected volatility, expected term and risk-free interest rate which were based on the best information available to management at the time of closing.

Completion of the sale of VEON's stake in Med Cable Limited, which is held by VEON Algeria Holdings B.V. (an indirect subsidiary of the Company), is subject to conditions specified in the SPA. As a result of this anticipated transaction and assessment that control of Med Cable Limited will be transferred, as from the date of the SPA signing, the Company classified Med Cable Limited as held for sale. Refer to Note 6 - Held for sale of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the details of the assets and liabilities held for sale relating to Med Cable Limited. Acquisition of Uklon On March 19, 2025, VEON announced its wholly-owned subsidiary Kyivstar had signed an agreement to acquire Uklon group (“Uklon”), a leading Ukrainian ride-hailing and delivery platform. This strategic acquisition marks Kyivstar’s expansion into a new area of digital consumer services in line with VEON’s digital operator strategy. Kyivstar acquired 97% of Uklon shares for a total consideration of US$158 upon the closing of the transaction. The agreement was subject to customary closing conditions and approvals that were obtained on April 2, 2025, the date the acquisition was completed. Table of Contents Notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements (in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated) VEON Ltd | Unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods ended September 30, 2025 19

The fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities of Uklon at the date of acquisition were: April 2, 2025 Non-current assets Intangible assets 58 Current assets Trade and other receivables 2 Cash and cash equivalents 12 Non-current liabilities Deferred tax liability (7) Current liabilities Trade and employee related payables (6) Other current liabilities (10) Fair value of identifiable net assets 49 Goodwill resulting from acquisition 109 Purchase consideration 158 The following table shows the details of purchase consideration at the acquisition date: April 2, 2025 Cash paid * 141 Fair value of contingent consideration 16 Put option liability 1 Total purchase consideration 158 * Total cash consideration consisted of US$129 for the acquisition of 97% of Uklon Group’s shares and a US$12 payment to settle employee awards. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, US$9 of contingent consideration was paid. The following table shows the details of cash outflow during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025: September 30, 2025 Cash consideration 153 Less: balances acquired Cash and cash equivalents (12) Net outflow of cash - investing activities 141 Contingent consideration of US$12 recognized as of the acquisition date has been fully paid as of September 30, 2025 Employees bonuses contingent consideration liability related to the portion attributable to pre-acquisition service, recognized at the acquisition date at fair value, resulted from the replacement of share-based payment rewards with new bonuses liability that is payable upon fulfillment of certain conditions under the SPA. The possible outcomes range from nil to US$4, with management assessing full payment as highly probable. As part of the agreement, Kyivstar entered into a symmetrical put and call option agreement for the remaining 3% interest in Uklon. The put and call options may be exercised from April 2, 2028 through April 2, 2035. As a result, on the acquisition date, VEON determined that it had a present ownership interest in the remaining 3% interest in Uklon and has accounted for the call and put option as part of the consideration transferred and therefore, no non-controlling interest was recognized. Accordingly, the option has been recorded as a financial liability at the present value of the amounts payable on exercise with subsequent changes recognized in the interim condensed consolidated income statement. The fair value of the customer base was determined to be US$32 with an estimated useful life of 10 years. The fair value of the customer base was determined using the multi-period excess earnings. The multi-period excess earnings approach involves forecasting the net earnings expected to be generated by the asset, reducing them by appropriate returns on contributory assets, and then discounting the resulting net cash flows to a present value using an appropriate discount rate. Table of Contents Notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements (in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated) VEON Ltd | Unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods ended September 30, 2025 20

The fair value of the trademark was determined to be US$18 with an estimated useful life of 10 years. The fair value of the trademark was determined using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach. This involves forecasting avoided royalties, reducing them by taxes and discounting the resulting net cash flows to a present value using an appropriate discount rate. The fair value of the developed technology intangible asset was determined to be US$8 with an estimated useful life of 3 years. The fair value of the developed technology was determined using the replacement cost approach. In the replacement cost approach, the fair value of an asset is based on the cost of a market participant to reconstruct a substitute asset of comparable utility, adjusted for any obsolescence. The fair value of acquired trade and other receivables is US$2, which is very close to the gross contractual amount, as a loss allowance is insignificant. The significant goodwill recognized from the acquisition of Uklon can be attributed to several factors, including Uklon's strong brand value and established customer relationships, which enhance Kyivstar’s market position. Additionally, the integration of Uklon’s services is expected to create operational synergies, leading to cost savings and improved service offerings. The acquisition also allows for market expansion and increased subscriber growth potential, while Uklon's technological expertise contributes to innovative capabilities. Overall, the goodwill reflects the anticipated future economic benefits arising from these elements. The goodwill will not be deductible for tax purposes. There were no transactions recognized separately from the acquisition of assets and assumption of liabilities in the business combination. From the date of acquisition, Uklon contributed US$46 of revenue and US$14 profit before tax to VEON. If the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the year, the contribution to revenue would have been US$66 and contribution to the profit before tax for VEON would have been US$19. These amounts have been calculated using Uklon’s results and adjusting them for: • differences in the accounting policies between VEON and Uklon, and • additional amortization that would have been charged on the assumption that the fair value adjustments to intangible assets had applied from January 1, 2025, together with their consequential tax effects. Acquisition-related costs of US$0.5 are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the interim condensed combined income statement, and in operating cash flows in the interim condensed combined statement of cash flows. The accounting for purchase of Uklon is provisional as the valuation of certain intangible assets, trade and other receivables, current, non-current liabilities and residual goodwill related to this acquisition is not complete. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary based on management’s estimates and assumptions and may be subject to change as additional information is obtained within the measurement period (not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date ending April 2, 2026). During the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, VEON recorded measurement period adjustments related to the acquisition of Uklon to reflect additional information identified after the six-month period ended June 30, 2025. The adjustments include recognition of US$6 of unpaid transaction costs as assumed liabilities and a total decrease of US$1 related to the fair value of the put option liability and deferred tax liability. As a result, the fair value of identifiable net assets decreased from US$54 million to US$49, and goodwill increased from US$104 to US$109. These adjustments were made within the measurement period and reflect facts and circumstances existing at the acquisition date. VEON sale of its Pakistan tower portfolio to Engro Corp On December 5, 2024, VEON announced that it is entering into a strategic partnership with Engro Corporation Limited (“Engro Corp”) with respect to the pooling and management of its infrastructure assets, starting in Pakistan. Under the partnership, VEON's infrastructure assets under Deodar (Private) Limited (“Deodar”), a wholly owned subsidiary of VEON, will vest into Engro Corp via a scheme of arrangement upon completion of conditions under the partnership which primarily include receipt of regulatory approvals from relevant Government authorities in Pakistan. VEON will continue to lease Deodar’s extensive infrastructure for the provision of nationwide mobile voice and data services under a long-term partnership agreement. On April 30, 2025, based on the expected closing conditions of the transaction, management assessed that the sale of Deodar is considered to be highly probable and therefore, the assets and liabilities of Deodar were classified as held for sale. Following the classification as held for sale, the Company did not account for depreciation and amortization expenses of Deodar’s assets. On June 3, 2025, upon successful completion of the transaction after all regulatory and other approvals were obtained, control over Deodar was assessed to be transferred to Engro Corp. As per the terms of the agreement, total consideration was US$562.5 out of which US$187.5 was paid upfront and remaining was to be paid in US$20 equal monthly installments over the period of 19 months from date of completion. The deferred sale consideration was discounted and recognized at present value resulting in total consideration to be recorded at the date of completion for US$547.5.

Impairment analysis Goodwill is tested for impairment annually (at September 30) or when circumstances indicate the carrying value may be impaired. The Company's impairment test is primarily based on fair value less cost of disposal calculations (Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy) using a discounted cash flow model, based on cash flow projections from business plans prepared by management adjusted to align with an average market participant view, where necessary. The Company considers, amongst other things, the relationship between its market capitalization and its book value, as well as the weighted average cost of capital and the quarterly financial performance of each cash-generating unit ("CGU") when reviewing for indicators of impairment in interim periods. Refer to the table above for an overview of the carrying value of goodwill per CGU. During 2025, the Company implemented certain enhancements to its impairment testing framework to align with post-IFRS 16, Leases, practices and evolving market conditions. These include: • Aligning the valuation methodology to fully reflect the impact on both recoverable and carrying amounts; • Applying a multi-period weighted average cost of capital (WACC) to capture short-term inflation volatility and changing risk profiles across the Company’s markets; and • Updating terminal growth rate assumptions to align with in-country long-term inflation expectations. These methodological updates do not represent a change in the underlying valuation approach, but rather refinements to ensure continued compliance and consistency with current market and accounting practices. The Company will provide detailed disclosures of key assumptions, methodologies, and sensitivity analyses in its annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Impairment losses in 2025 The Company performed its annual impairment testing of goodwill as of September 30, 2025, and also tested non-goodwill CGUs for impairment as of the same date. Bangladesh is a non-goodwill CGU, and therefore not subject to the mandatory annual impairment testing. However, the Bangladesh CGU had limited headroom following the reversal of impairment in 2022 and is continuously monitored. As such, the Company performed valuation tests at September 30, 2025, to assess if a further impairment or reversal of impairment was required. Based on the analysis performed, no impairment nor reversal of impairment was identified for any CGUs.

Fair values The carrying amounts of all financial assets and liabilities are equal to or approximate their respective fair values as shown in the table above, with the exception of: • 'Bank loans and bonds, including interest accrued', for which fair value is equal to US$3,092 at September 30, 2025 (December 31, 2024: US$3,157); and • 'Lease liabilities', for which fair value has not been determined. Fair values are estimated based on quoted market prices for our bonds, derived from market prices or by discounting contractual cash flows at the rate applicable for the instruments with similar maturity and risk profile. Observable inputs (Level 2) used in valuation techniques include interbank interest rates, bond yields, swap curves, basis swap spreads, foreign exchange rates and credit default spreads. The Warrants are measured at fair value as of each reporting period. As the Warrants are traded on an active market, the fair value of the warrants is a level 1 fair value measurement. Changes in the fair value of the Warrants are recorded in the statements of operations for each period within other non-operating (loss) / gain, net. On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews if there are any indicators for a possible transfer between fair value hierarchy levels.

16 BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS BASIS OF PREPARATION The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2025 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). The preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements has required management to apply accounting policies and methodologies based on complex and subjective judgments, estimates based on past experience and assumptions determined to be reasonable and realistic based on the related circumstances. The use of these judgments, estimates and assumptions affects the amounts reported in the statement of financial position, income statement, statement of cash flows, statement of changes in equity, as well as the notes. The final amounts for items for which estimates and assumptions were made in the consolidated financial statements may differ from those reported in these statements due to the uncertainties that characterize the assumptions and conditions on which the estimates are based. Going Concern These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Due to the adverse effects of the ongoing war in Ukraine, including the potential nationalization of the Group’s subsidiary in Ukraine, heightened geopolitical and sanction risks, potential breaches of loan covenants, and constrained liquidity resulting from limited access to capital markets, the Company previously concluded that substantial doubt existed as to its ability to continue as a going concern and the Company may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business due to such material uncertainties. Management has taken actions to address the aforementioned events and conditions that may raise substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern: • The Group has regained normal access to capital markets and successfully raised new financing during the nine month period ended September 30, 2025 (US$210 in the form of a syndicated loan and US$200 in private bond placements), to support operations and financial needs (refer to Note 1). As a result, the Company’s cash position has strengthened. • The Company has successfully maintained compliance with loan covenants as of September 30, 2025 and assessed that there is no risk of default based on current internal forecasts and analysis (which considers both including and excluding its Ukraine subsidiaries given the aforementioned risks related to the ongoing war) for the period of twelve months from the date of filing of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, as a result of operating results, recent successful capital markets and debt financings, the Company believes it has sufficient cash on hand to meet is current obligations due for the period of twelve months from the date of filing of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company’s assessment included consideration of forecasted performance, liquidity and covenant compliance under scenarios excluding any potential benefits or dividends from its Ukrainian operations. Cash on hand as of September 30, 2025 is US$1,663 (of which US$456 is in Ukraine). • While the war continues in Ukraine, during the three months ended September 30, 2025 considerable developments were made to mitigate the country specific risks that impact the Company’s operating entities in Ukraine, including, Kyivstar Group’s listing on Nasdaq in August 2025, the Cooperation Memorandum with the Ukrainian Government, unfreezing of Kyivstar’s corporate rights in November 2024, and high-level public and private engagements between VEON, Kyivstar and the most senior members of the Ukrainian Government. Based on these developments and management’s assessment of cash flow projections, available financing facilities, and forecasted compliance with covenants for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, management has concluded that the conditions that previously gave rise to a material uncertainty no longer exist. Accordingly, significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern no longer exists.
