Additional information - Financial Statement Schedule I

Additional information—Financial Statement Schedule I Schedule I has been provided pursuant to the requirements of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation S-X Rule 12-04(a), which require condensed financial information as to financial position, cash flows

and results of operations of a parent company as of the same dates and for the same periods for which audited consolidated financial statements have been presented, as the restricted net assets of Global Blue Group Holding AG’s (“the Parent Company”) consolidated subsidiaries as of March 31, 2022 exceeded the 25% threshold.

Certain jurisdictions in which group entities are located apply regulations which restrict the ability of subsidiaries to transfer funds to the Parent Company through intercompany loans, advances or cash dividends. SFA covenants and security (see Note 26) do not restrict subsidiaries from transferring funds to the Parent Company.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards have been condensed or omitted. The footnote disclosures contain supplemental information only and, as such, these statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The condensed financial information has been prepared using the same accounting policies as set out in the consolidated financial statements, except that investments in subsidiaries are included at cost less any provision for impairment in value.

As of March 31, 2022 there were no material contingencies, significant provisions of long-term obligations, mandatory dividend or redemption requirements of redeemable stocks or guarantees of the Company, except for those which have been separately disclosed in the consolidated financial statements, if any.

During the year ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 no cash dividends were either declared nor paid by the Company.

The Parent Company was established on December 10, 2019. From this incorporation date through to August 28, 2020, the date of the capital reorganization, the Company had no material assets and did not operate any businesses. Therefore, the current note has been prepared for the financial year ended March 31, 2022 and for the financial year ended March 31, 2021, and no comparative figures have been presented for the financial year ended March 31, 2020.
