Although the Company believes that these assumptions were reasonable when made, these assumptions are inherently subject to significant known and unknown risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other important factors which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond its control. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including: (i) the Company’s ability to effectively mitigate factors that negatively impact its supply of raw materials, including the conflict in Ukraine; (ii) the Company’s ability to successfully mitigate inflationary changes in the market, (iii) disruptions or inefficiencies in the Company’s operations or supply chain, including as a result of the conflict in Ukraine or trade conflicts; (iv) the Company’s ability to successfully implement its strategies (including its M&A and A&P strategies) or strategic initiatives and recognize the anticipated benefits of such strategic initiatives; (v) innovations introduced to the markets and the Company’s ability to accurately forecast the brands’ performance; (vi) the Company’s ability to effectively compete in its markets, including the ability to capture a greater share of the frozen food market; (vii) changes in consumer preferences, such as meat substitutes, and the Company’s failure to anticipate and respond to such changes or to successfully develop and renovate products; (viii) the impact of weather conditions, natural disasters, and other factors beyond the Company’s control on the Company’s business, suppliers, co-manufacturers, distributors, transportation or logistics providers, customers, consumers and employees, and the Company’s ability to maintain the health and safety of its workforce; (ix) the effects of reputational damage from unsafe or poor quality food products; (x) increases in operating costs, including labor costs, and the Company’s ability to manage its cost structure; (xi) fluctuations in the availability of food ingredients and packaging materials that the Company uses in its products; (xii) the Company’s ability to protect its brand names and trademarks; (xiii) the Company’s ability to prevent, or remediate, any future cybersecurity incidents; (xiv) the loss of any of the Company’s major customers or a decrease in demand for its products; (xv) economic conditions that may affect the Company’s future performance including exchange rate fluctuations and trade conflicts; (xvi) the Company’s ability to remediate any material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting; and (xvii) the other risks and uncertainties disclosed in the Company’s public filings and any other public disclosures by the Company. Given these risks and uncertainties, prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Other than in accordance with its legal or regulatory obligations, the Company is not under any obligation and the Company and its affiliates expressly disclaim any intention, obligation or undertaking to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. This Presentation shall not, under any circumstances, create any implication that there has been no change in the business or affairs of the Company since the date of this Presentation or that the information contained herein is correct as at any time subsequent to its date. No statement in this Presentation is intended as a profit forecast or estimate. Unless otherwise indicated, market and competitive position data in this Presentation has been published by Nielsen or Euromonitor. Given this data has been obtained from industry publications and surveys or studies conducted by third-party sources, there are limitations with respect to the availability, accuracy, completeness and comparability of such data. The Company has not independently verified such data, can provide no assurance of its accuracy or completeness and is not under any obligation to update, complete, revise or keep current the information contained in this Presentation. Certain statements in this document regarding the market and competitive position data are based on the internal analyses of the Company, which involves certain assumptions and estimates. These internal analyses have not been verified by any independent sources and there can be no assurance that the assumptions or estimates are accurate. This Presentation includes certain additional key performance indicators which are considered non-IFRS financial measures including, but not limited to, organic revenue growth, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EPS growth, Adjusted EBITDA growth, Adjusted operating expenses, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion, and Free Cash. Nomad Foods believes these non-IFRS financial measures provide an important alternative measure with which to monitor and evaluate the Company’s ongoing financial results, as well as to reflect its acquisitions. Nomad Foods’ calculation of these financial measures may be different from the calculations used by other companies and comparability may therefore be limited. You should not consider the Company’s non-IFRS financial measures an alternative or substitute for the Company’s reported results. For a reconciliation of these non- IFRS financial measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures, refer to the Appendix to this Presentation. The Company is unable to reconcile, without unreasonable efforts, Adjusted EBITDA, Organic Revenue, Adjusted EPS, Free Cash and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion guidance to the most directly comparable IFRS measures.

Appendix 30


 
The following tables have been included to allow users to reconcile Non-IFRS financial measures as well as Adjusted financial information included within this presentation to reported IFRS financial measures. 1. Definitions of Non-IFRS financial measures referred to in this presentation. 2. Reconciliation of Non-IFRS financial measures. Contents 31


 
Non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered as substitutes for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. They are limited in value because they exclude charges that have a material effect on the Company’s reported results and, therefore, should not be relied upon as the sole financial measures to evaluate the Company’s financial results. The non-IFRS financial measures are meant to supplement, and to be viewed in conjunction with, IFRS financial measures. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-IFRS financial measures to their most directly comparable IFRS financial measures as provided in the tables accompanying this document. Adjusted EBITDA – EBITDA is profit or loss for the period before taxation, net financing costs, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted to exclude, when they occur, the impacts of exited markets, acquisition purchase price adjustments and exceptional items to the extent included in our financial statements such as material restructuring charges, material goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, other material unusual or non-recurring items, as well as additional items that management deems to be exceptional and appropriate for adjustment. In addition, we exclude other adjustments such as the impact of share based payment expenses and related employer payroll taxes, and non-operating M&A related costs, because we do not believe they are indicative of our normal operating costs, can vary significantly in amount and frequency, and are unrelated to our underlying operating performance. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA provides important comparability of underlying operating results, allowing investors and management to assess operating performance on a consistent basis. Adjusted Gross Profit and adjusted gross margin exclude acquisition purchase price adjustments and accelerated depreciation associated with restructuring programs, both within cost of goods sold. Adjusted Profit for the period is defined as profit for the period excluding, when they occur, the impacts of exited markets, acquisition purchase price adjustments and exceptional items such as restructuring charges, goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, net financing income/(cost) on amendment of terms of debt, interest cost on tax relating to legacy tax audits, foreign exchange translation gains/(losses), foreign exchange gains/(losses) on derivatives, as well as certain other items considered unusual or non-recurring in nature. In addition, we exclude other adjustments such as the impact of share based payment expenses and related employer payroll taxes, and non-operating M&A related costs, because we do not believe they are indicative of our normal operating costs, can vary significantly in amount and frequency, and are unrelated to our underlying operating performance. The Company believes Adjusted Profit after tax provides important comparability of underlying operating results, allowing investors and management to assess operating performance on a consistent basis. Adjusted EPS - Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted earnings per share excluding, when they occur, the impacts of exited markets, acquisition purchase price adjustments and exceptional items such as restructuring charges, goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, net financing income/(cost) on amendment of terms of debt, interest cost on tax relating to legacy tax audits, foreign exchange translation gains/(losses), foreign exchange gains/(losses) on derivatives, as well as certain other items considered unusual or non-recurring in nature. In addition, we exclude other adjustments such as the impact of share based payment expenses and related employer payroll taxes, and non-operating M&A related costs, because we do not believe they are indicative of our normal operating costs, can vary significantly in amount and frequency, and are unrelated to our underlying operating performance. The Company believes Adjusted EPS provides important comparability of underlying operating results, allowing investors and management to assess operating performance on a consistent basis. Adjusted Financial Information – Adjusted financial information presented in this presentation reflects the historical reported financial statements of Nomad Foods, adjusted for share based payment charges including employer payroll taxes, exceptional items (as described above) and non-cash foreign currency translation charges/gain. Organic Revenue Growth/(Decline) – Organic revenue growth/(decline) is an adjusted measurement of our operating results. This comparison of current and prior period performance takes into consideration only those activities that were in effect during both time periods. Organic revenue reflects reported revenue adjusted for currency translation and non-comparable trading items such as expansion, acquisitions, disposals, closures, trading day impacts or any other event that artificially impact the comparability of our results. Free Cash Flow – Free cash flow is the amount of cash generated from operating activities less cash flows related to (i) capital expenditure (on property, plant and equipment and intangible assets), (ii) net interest paid, (iii) proceeds/(payments) on settlement of derivatives where hedge accounting is not applied and (iv) payments of lease liabilities. Adjusted Free Cash Flow – Adjusted free cash flow is Free cash flow (as described above) plus cash flows (i) related to exceptional items (as described above), (ii) non-operating M&A related costs and (iii) working capital movements on employer taxes associated with share based payment awards. Adjusted free cash flow reflects cash flows that could be used for payment of dividends, repayment of debt or to fund acquisitions or other strategic objectives. 1.
