Underlying Profit     1 682 million USD

Underlying profit (normalized profit attributable to equity holders of AB InBev excluding mark-to-market gains
and losses linked to the hedging of our share-based payment programs and the impact of hyperinflation) was
1 682 million USD in 3Q22 compared to 1 699 million USD in 3Q21 and was 4 354 million USD in 9M22
compared to 4 290 million USD in 9M21.

Underlying EPS        0.84 USD

Underlying EPS was 0.84 USD in 3Q22, a decrease from 0.85 USD in 3Q21 and was 2.16 USD in 9M22, an

2022 OUTLOOK

   (i) Overall Performance: We expect our FY22 EBITDA to grow between 6-8% and our revenue to grow
       ahead of EBITDA from a healthy combination of volume and price. Our medium-term outlook, which
       aims to deliver EBITDA growth of 4-8%, remains unchanged.

  (ii) Net Finance Costs: Net pension interest expenses and accretion expenses are expected to be in
       the range of 170 to 200 million USD per quarter, depending on currency and interest rate fluctuations.
       We expect the average gross debt coupon in FY22 to be approximately 4.0%. Net finance costs will
       continue to be impacted by any gains and losses related to the hedging of our share-based payment
       programs.

 (iii) Effective Tax Rates (ETR): We expect the normalized ETR in FY22 to be in the range of 28% to
       30% excluding any gains and losses relating to the hedging of our share-based payment programs.
       The ETR outlook does not consider the impact of potential future changes in legislation.

  (iv) Net Capital Expenditure: We expect net capital expenditure of between 4.5 and 5.0 billion USD in
       FY22.
