ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Objective

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to further the reader’s understanding of the condensed consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company. It should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Form 10-Q") and the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “2025 Annual Report”). These historical financial statements may not be indicative of our future performance. This discussion contains a number of forward-looking statements, all of which are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risks referred to under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A. in our 2025 Annual Report. When used in this report, the terms “the Company,” “our Company,” “Primo Brands,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refers to Primo Brands Corporation, together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Overview

Primo Brands is a leading North American branded beverage company focused on healthy hydration, delivering responsibly sourced diversified offerings across products, formats, channels, price points, and consumer occasions, distributed in every U.S. state and Canada.

We have a comprehensive portfolio of highly recognizable and conveniently packaged branded water and beverages that reach consumers whenever, wherever, and however they hydrate through distribution across retail outlets, away from home such as hotels and hospitals, and hospitality and food service accounts, as well as direct delivery to homes and businesses. These brands include established “billion-dollar brands” Poland Spring® and Pure Life®, premium brands like Saratoga® and The Mountain Valley®, leading regional spring water offerings such as Arrowhead®, Deer Park®, Ice Mountain®, Ozarka®, and Zephyrhills®, purified water brands including Primo Water® and Sparkletts®, and flavored and enhanced beverages like Splash Refresher™ and AC+ION®. We also have an industry-leading line-up of innovative water dispensers, which create consumer connectivity through recurring water purchases. We operate a vertically integrated coast-to-coast network that distributes our brands to more than 200,000 retail outlets, as well as directly reaching customers and consumers through our Direct Delivery, Exchange and Refill offerings. Through Direct Delivery, we deliver responsibly sourced hydration solutions direct to home and business customers. Through our Exchange business, consumers can visit approximately 26,500 retail locations and purchase a pre-filled, multi-use bottle of water that can be exchanged after use for a discount on the next purchase. Through our Refill business, consumers have the option to refill empty multi-use bottles at over 23,500 self-service refill stations. We also offer water filtration units for home and business customers across North America. We are a leader in reusable beverage packaging, helping to reduce waste through its multi-serve bottles and innovative brand packaging portfolio, which includes recycled plastic, aluminum, and glass. We have a portfolio of over 80 springs and actively manage water resources to help assure a steady supply of quality, safe drinking water today and in the future. We also help conserve over 28,000 acres of land across the U.S. and Canada. We are proud to partner with the International Bottled Water Association ("IBWA") in North America, which supports strict adherence to safety, quality, sanitation, and regulatory standards for the benefit of consumer protection. We are committed to supporting the communities we serve, investing in local and national programs and delivering hydration solutions following natural disasters and other local community challenges. We employ more than 12,000 associates with dual headquarters in Tampa, Florida, and Stamford, Connecticut.

The Transaction

On November 8, 2024, Primo Brands consummated the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement and Plan of Merger (the transactions effecting the Arrangement Agreement, the "Transaction"), pursuant to which Primo Water Corporation ("Primo Water") and Triton Water Parent, Inc. ("BlueTriton") were combined, creating Primo Brands.

Trends and Factors Affecting Results of Operations

Evolving Customer Trends

We believe we are well-positioned to benefit from evolving consumer trends, as well as the continued acceleration of e-commerce. These favorable trends, combined with the broad appeal of our brands, provide us with a significant opportunity to drive the growth of our business.

•Ability to Increase Brand Awareness – Our ability to increase brand awareness has and will continue to contribute meaningfully to our performance. We focus on creating, capturing and retaining new demand by increasing our brand awareness while also increasing our value proposition to our customers. We aim to continue to increase our

28

Table of Contents

brand awareness through continued local community engagement, national media campaigns, growing our social community and innovating our packaging to make our brands and products visually appealing and distinctive from other bottled water brands.

•Product Innovation and Expansion – We see significant potential to grow our sales in underpenetrated, high-growth segments of the bottled water category, such as sparkling, flavored and enhanced waters, by leveraging the brand equity of our existing brands to develop new and innovative beverage offerings. Through the flexible production capabilities of our existing infrastructure and our extensive distribution and retail relationships, we believe we will be able to quickly develop, produce and commercialize new products. We intend to continue investing in innovations within our product portfolio, as well as the development and introduction of new products.

•E-commerce – Given the trend towards growth of sales through e-commerce websites and mobile commerce applications, including through subscription services and other direct-to-consumer businesses, the consumer is leveraging multiple methods of engagement including the digital marketplace.

Consolidation in the Retail Industry

Our industry has been affected by the trend toward consolidation in the retail channel. Many of our retail customers have consolidated in recent years, and this consolidation trend may continue. As a result, our retail customers may seek lower pricing and demand increased marketing or promotional expenditures from us. Large retailers are also increasingly using their distribution networks and economies of scale to introduce and develop private-label brands, such as those carried by supermarket chains, convenience store chains, drug store chains, mass merchants and club warehouses. See Item 1A. "Risk Factors — Risks Related to our Customers, Suppliers and Associates" in our 2025 Annual Report.

General Economic Conditions and Other Factors

Our operations and supplier relationships expose us to risks associated with disruptions to global supply chains and tariffs, which are likely to continue to create challenging conditions for our business through increased costs, lower consumer spending, volatility in financial markets and other impacts. In addition, the ongoing conflict in Iran and broader geopolitical instability in the Middle East may further disrupt global supply chains, increase energy and raw material costs, and contribute to market volatility. While we have taken steps to minimize these impacts, global supply chain disruption may deteriorate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The markets in which we operate are subject to seasonal variations. Our water sales are generally higher during the warmer months and our purchases of raw materials and related accounts payable fluctuate based upon the demand for our products. This seasonality causes our working capital needs to fluctuate throughout the year.

We conduct operations in Canada and are subject to currency exchange risks to the extent that our costs are denominated in currencies other than those in which we earn revenues. As our financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars, fluctuations in currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar have had, and will continue to have, an impact on our results of operations.

Ingredient and packaging costs represent a significant portion of our cost of sales. These costs are subject to global and regional commodity price trends. Our most significant commodities are polyethylene terephthalate (“PET”) resin, glass, aluminum, high-density polyethylene (“HDPE”) and low-density polyethylene (“LDPE”). We attempt to manage our exposure to fluctuations in ingredient and packaging costs by entering into fixed price commitments for a portion of our ingredient and packaging requirements and implementing price increases as needed.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We present certain non-GAAP measures in this Quarterly Report, including Adjusted EBITDA and measures derived therefrom, which are not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest and financing expense, net, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses, stock-based compensation costs, impairment charges, unrealized loss (gain) on foreign exchange and commodity forwards, loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment, net, loss on modification and extinguishment of debt, management fees, purchase accounting adjustments, and other adjustments, net. This is an important metric that management uses as an analytical indicator to evaluate our performance, allocate resources, and measure leverage. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful metric for management, investors, and analysts because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry, and it removes the impact of items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets

29

Table of Contents

and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies, and we believe these adjustments allow for consistent comparison of our operating results over time and relative to our peers.

We use Adjusted EBITDA to supplement U.S. GAAP measures of performance in evaluating the effectiveness of our business strategies, and to establish annual budgets and forecasts. We also use Adjusted EBITDA as a target for short-term incentive compensation for management.

Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. It is not a measurement of our financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other businesses. This non-GAAP metric does not necessarily indicate whether cash flow will be sufficient or available to meet our cash requirements and may not be indicative of our historical operating results, nor are such measures meant to be predictive of our future results. In the future, we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments noted herein to calculate Adjusted EBITDA. However, the magnitude of such adjustments for the periods presented herein is not necessarily indicative of the magnitude of such adjustments in future periods. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that f

ITEM 7.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Objective

The following discussion provides an analysis of the Company’s financial condition, cash flows and results of operations from management's perspective and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements And Supplementary Data” of this Annual Report. Our objective is to also provide discussion of events and uncertainties known to management that are reasonably likely to cause reported financial information not to be indicative of future operating results or of future financial condition and to offer information that provides understanding of our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.

This section generally discusses the results of our operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. For a discussion of the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, please refer to Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2025.

Consolidation in the Retail Industry

Our industry has been affected by the trend toward consolidation in the retail channel. Many of our retail customers have consolidated in recent years, and this consolidation trend may continue. As a result, our retail customers may seek lower pricing and demand increased marketing or promotional expenditures from us. Large retailers are also increasingly using their distribution networks and economies of scale to introduce and develop private-label brands, such as those carried by supermarket chains, convenience store chains, drug store chains, mass merchants and club warehouses. See Item 1A. "Risk Factors — Risks Related to our Customers, Suppliers and Associates" in this Annual Report.

General Economic Conditions and Other Factors

Our operations and supplier relationships expose us to risks associated with disruptions to global supply chains and tariffs, which are likely to continue to create challenging conditions for our business through increased costs, lower consumer spending, volatility in financial markets and other impacts. While we have taken steps to minimize these impacts, global supply chain disruption may deteriorate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The markets in which we operate are subject to seasonal variations. Our water sales are generally higher during the warmer months and our purchases of raw materials and related accounts payable fluctuate based upon the demand for our products. This seasonality causes our working capital needs to fluctuate throughout the year.

We conduct operations in Canada and are subject to currency exchange risks to the extent that our costs are denominated in currencies other than those in which we earn revenues. As our financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars, fluctuations in currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar have had, and will continue to have, an impact on our results of operations.

Ingredient and packaging costs represent a significant portion of our cost of sales. These costs are subject to global and regional commodity price trends. Our most significant commodities are PET resin, glass, aluminum, HDPE and LDPE. We attempt to manage our exposure to fluctuations in ingredient and packaging costs by entering into fixed price commitments for a portion of our ingredient and packaging requirements and implementing price increases as needed.

In 2025, our capital expenditures were devoted primarily to supporting growth in our business, maintaining existing facilities, making equipment upgrades and post-Transaction (as defined below) integration related activities.

Factors Affecting Comparability of Financial Information

BlueTriton - Primo Water Transaction

On November 8, 2024, Primo Brands consummated the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 16, 2024, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 thereto dated October 1, 2024 (the document, as amended, the “Arrangement Agreement”, and the aggregation of these activities are henceforth referred to as transactions effecting the Arrangement Agreement, the "Transaction") in which Primo Brands became the surviving corporation, and Primo Water and BlueTriton became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Primo Brands. See Note 1 - "Description of the Business” to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this Annual Report for additional information.

We accounted for the Transaction as a business combination in which BlueTriton was the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, assets acquired and liabilities assumed were measured at their acquisition date fair values as of November 8, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2023, our consolidated operating results reflect only BlueTriton. The financial statements incorporate Primo Water’s performance from November 9, 2024 through December 31, 2024, as well as the full year ended December 31, 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We present certain non-GAAP measures in this Annual Report, including Adjusted EBITDA and measures derived therefrom, which are not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest and financing expense, net, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses, stock-based compensation costs, impairment charges, unrealized loss (gain) on foreign exchange and commodity forwards, loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment, net, loss on modification and extinguishment of debt, management fees, purchase accounting adjustments, and other adjustments, net. This is an important metric that management uses as an analytical indicator to evaluate our performance, allocate resources, and measure leverage. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful metric for management,” investors, and analysts because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry, and it removes the impact of items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies, and we believe these adjustments allow for consistent comparison of our operating results over time and relative to our peers.

We use Adjusted EBITDA to supplement U.S. GAAP measures of performance in evaluating the effectiveness of our business strategies, and to establish annual budgets and forecasts. We also use Adjusted EBITDA as a target for short-term incentive compensation for management.

Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. It is not a measurement of our financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other businesses. This non-GAAP metric does not necessarily indicate whether cash flow will be sufficient or available to meet our cash requirements and may not be indicative of our historical operating results, nor are such measures meant to be predictive of our future results. In the future, we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments noted herein to calculate Adjusted EBITDA. However, the magnitude of such adjustments for the periods presented herein is not necessarily indicative of the magnitude of such adjustments in future periods. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations include that:

•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary, to service interest on our indebtedness;

•although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and not all of these measures reflect cash requirements for such replacements;

•non-cash compensation is a key element of our long-term executive incentive compensation package, although we exclude it as an expense when evaluating our ongoing operating performance for a particular period;

•the fact that other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently than we do, which limits their usefulness as comparative measures; and

•these measures do not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations.

Furthermore, we compensate for the limitations described above by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only for supplemental purposes.

Net Sales

During the year ended December 31, 2025, net sales were $6,664.0 million, an increase of $1,511.5 million, or 29.3%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily related to $1,541.6 million of net sales attributable to Primo Water as a result of the Transaction, partially offset by a decrease of $80.8 million in volumes attributable to non-recurring sales in 2024 as a result of the sale of the production facility in Ontario, Canada that was completed during the first quarter of 2025.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales consists primarily of manufacturing, shipping and logistics, storage and handling, personnel costs and allocated facilities and overhead costs associated with products sold. Manufacturing costs consist primarily of raw materials, packaging costs and labor and utilities to convert raw materials into finished products.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, cost of sales was $4,643.8 million, an increase of $1,112.9 million, or 31.5%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in costs was primarily driven by $1,126.6 million of cost of sales attributable to Primo Water as a result of the Transaction and, to a lesser extent, $35.6 million of non-recurring integration costs attributable to BlueTriton Brands in the current year, partially offset by $65.0 million in non-recurring costs of sales as a result of the sale of the production facility in Ontario, Canada that was completed during the first quarter of 2025.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

During the year ended December 31, 2025, gross profit was $2,020.2 million, an increase of $398.6 million, or 24.6%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, and gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 30.3%, as compared to 31.5% during the year ended December 31, 2024. This change was primarily driven by $415.0 million of gross profit, or 26.9% gross margin, attributable to Primo Water as a result of the Transaction and the factors discussed above.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Costs recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses include product marketing and advertising expenses, selling costs, including commissions, information technology (“IT”) and all other costs associated with corporate functions, oversight and support.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,390.4 million, an increase of $339.8 million, or 32.3%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to $403.7 million of costs attributable to Primo Water as a result of the Transaction, partially offset by $53.4 million of nonrecurring management fees incurred in the prior year.

Acquisition, Integration and Restructuring Expenses

Transaction costs include those associated with the Transaction, including subsequent costs directly related to its consummation. Other acquisition expenses include costs associated with our acquisitions, as well as costs incurred in connection with potential acquisitions. Integration and restructuring expenses mainly include costs incurred to achieve post-Transaction synergies, information technology implementation costs, and costs incurred in connection with business optimization, among others.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses were $167.5 million, a decrease of $36.6 million, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in Transaction costs of $102.5 million driven by higher Transaction-related costs and non-recurring employee severance and termination-

49

Table of Contents

related costs of $47.3 million incurred in the prior year. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in integration-related costs of $113.4 million in 2025.

Intangible Asset Impairment

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded impairment charges of $35.6 million associated with an indefinite-lived trade name, as further described in Note 2 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies".

Other Operating (Income) Expense, Net

Other operating (income) expense, net, includes primarily unrealized foreign exchange (gains) losses, unrealized mark-to-market adjustments for commodity forwards and other infrequent income or charges.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, Other operating income, net was $3.7 million, compared to expense of $6.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. This change is primarily due to an unrealized gain on commodity forwards of $1.9 million in 2025 compared to unrealized loss of $1.8 million in the prior year period as well as unrealized foreign exchange gains of $1.8 million in 2025 compared to unrealized losses of $3.4 million in the prior year period.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net during the year ended December 31, 2025 was $59.7 million, compared to nil during the year ended December 31, 2024. The income is primarily related to insurance proceeds of $60.8 million for an insurance claim associated with a warehouse in Texas damaged by a tornado. $47.3 million of the proceeds is related to capital related costs to repair infrastructure on the warehouse and $13.5 million of the proceeds is related to business interruption related to the event and proceeds in excess of other costs incurred.

Loss on Modification and Extinguishment of Debt

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we consummated the Refinancing Transactions (as defined below) to simplify our capital structure, streamline our reporting and compliance requirements and reduce the overall cost of our borrowings. As a result of these transactions, we recorded charges totaling $18.6 million.

Interest and Financing Expense, Net

Interest and financing expense, net, primarily relates to interest expense on our debt and finance leases, revolver commitment fees and costs associated with our debt, partially offset by interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, interest and financing expense, net, was $326.5 million, a decrease of $13.1 million, or 3.9%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily relating to a lower effective interest rate on the Term Loans (as defined below) and no outstanding revolving debt during the year ended December 31, 2025, substantially offset by an increase of $57.9 million of interest and financing expense primarily related to the addition of the 3.875% Senior Notes and the 4.375% Senior Notes as a result of the Transaction (as defined below).

Provision for Income Tax

During the year ended December 31, 2025, income tax expense was $64.6 million compared to $33.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. The effective tax rate was 44.6% in the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to 160.9% in the year ended December 31, 2024.

The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased from the effective tax rate from the year ended December 31, 2024 due primarily to non-deductible transaction costs, enacted rate changes, and related-party transactions in 2024 related to the merger. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025 differs from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to permanent differences for which we have not recognized a tax benefit and losses in tax jurisdictions with valuation allowances.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, we have funded our operations, capital expenditures and acquisitions through a combination of cash generated from operating activities and debt financing, including our Term Loans and Senior Notes, consistent with our capital structure strategy in prior years.

Our principal liquidity requirements are for working capital and general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures and debt service, dividends and acquisitions. We have historically funded our operations and acquisitions primarily through cash provided by operating activities and debt financing.

50

Table of Contents

We believe that a combination of cash generated from operating activities, and undrawn availability under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) will provide sufficient liquidity to support our working capital needs, planned growth and capital expenditure needs, service the ongoing principal and interest payments on our indebtedness, and support our other funding and investment requirements for the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future. However, we do not expect to generate sufficient cash from operations to repay at maturity the entirety of the then-outstanding balances of our debt. As a result, we will be dependent upon our ability to refinance such indebtedness or access the credit markets or source additional equity investments to repay the outstanding balances of our indebtedness. Failure to raise significant amounts of funding to repay these obligations or to refinance our indebtedness on beneficial terms at maturity would adversely affect our financial condition. We may also require additional capital in the future to pursue attractive acquisition opportunities in our industry. In addition, our ability to service our indebtedness and to fund our other liquidity requirements will depend on our ability to generate and access cash in the future, which is subject to general economic, financial, contractual, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, as well as the other factors described in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors” in this Annual Report.

As of December 31, 2025, we had $376.9 million of cash on hand (of which $0.2 million is restricted). We had access to $750.0 million of revolving loan commitments (excluding $137.4 million of outstanding letters of credit) under the Revolving Credit Facility (defined below). We, or our affiliates, may from time to time seek to repurchase or retire outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers or otherwise. Any future repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity, contractual restrictions, and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we completed the sale of our Eden Springs Netherlands B.V. business located in the United Kingdom for aggregate deal consideration of $9.7 million and the sale of the portion of our Eden Springs Netherlands B.V. business located in Israel for net consideration of $41.7 million.

Secured and Unsecured Notes Exchange Offers

On January 27, 2025, we commenced separate private offers to exchange (collectively, the “Exchange Offers”) the three series of outstanding senior notes issued by either Primo Water Holdings Inc. ("Primo Water Holdings") or Triton Water Holdings, Inc. ("Triton Water Holdings") both indirect, wholly owned subsidiaries of Primo Brands (collectively, the “Issuers”), for three new series of senior notes co-issued by the Issuers, and for holders who tendered by February 7, 2025 (the "Early Tender Date"), cash in an amount equal to 25 basis points of the principal amount of notes tendered. The Exchange Offers consisted of the following:         

•an offer to exchange any and all of the €450,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of outstanding 3.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “Original 3.875% Senior Notes”) issued by Primo Water Holdings for a combination of new 3.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “3.875% Senior Notes”), co-issued by the Issuers, and, for tenders accepted on the Early Tender Date, cash;         

•an offer to exchange any and all of the $750,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of outstanding 4.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the “Original 4.375% Senior Notes”) issued by Primo Water Holdings for a combination of new 4.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the “4.375% Senior Notes”), co-issued by the Issuers, and, for tenders accepted on the Early Tender Date, cash; and         

•an offer to exchange any and all of the $713,023,000 in aggregate principal amount of outstanding 6.250% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2029 (the “Original 6.250% Senior Notes” and, together with the Original 3.875% Senior Notes and the Original 4.375% Senior Notes, the "Original Notes") issued by the Triton Water Holdings for a combination of new 6.250% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2029 (the “6.250% Senior Notes” and, together with the 3.875% Senior Notes and the 4.375% Senior Notes, the "New Notes"), co-issued by the Issuers, and, for tenders accepted on the Early Tender Date, cash.

On the Early Tender Date, we entered into supplemental indentures related to the respective indentures governing the Original Notes that eliminated substantially all of the restrictive covenants, certain of the default provisions, and certain other provisions contained in the indentures. Additionally, the supplemental indentures to the indentures governing the Original 3.875% Senior Notes and the Original 4.375% Senior Notes released the guarantees of such notes previously provided by the guarantors thereunder.

Term Loans

Triton Water Holdings and Intermediate Holdings, both wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, entered into a Term Loan Agreement (as subsequently amended, the “Amended Credit Agreement” and such term loans thereunder, the “Term Loans”) on March 31, 2021 with a group of lenders and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative and collateral

This amendment modified certain covenant requirements related to the $3,098.6 million principal balance of Term Loans outstanding at that date. In addition to the amendment, the Term Loans' variable interest rate was repriced and the ABL Credit Facility was replaced by the Revolving Credit Facility described below. The Term Loans retain the maturity date of March 31, 2028.

As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, unamortized debt issuance costs and discount related to the Term Loans were $39.4 million and $54.4 million, respectively.

Interest Rate and Fees

The interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Term Loans will be, at our option, either (1) the Base Rate (which is the highest of (x) the Federal Funds Rate, plus 0.50%, (y) the Prime Rate on such day, and (z) Adjusted Term-SOFR published on such date, plus 1.00%), plus an applicable spread, or (2) one-, three- or six-month SOFR or, if available from all lenders, 12-month SOFR, or any shorter period less than one month (as may be consented to by each applicable lender thereunder), plus an applicable spread. The applicable spread for SOFR Loans under the Term Loan is 2.25%. The Term Loan is subject to a SOFR floor of 0.50%.

Prepayments

We are required to prepay the Term Loans with 100% of the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales (such percentage subject to reduction based on the achievement of specific leverage ratios), 100% of the net cash proceeds of certain debt issuances, and 50% of excess cash flow (such percentage subject to reduction based on the achievement of specific leverage ratios), in each case, subject to certain reinvestment rights and other exceptions.

Amortization

On the last business day of each fiscal quarter we are required to make an aggregate principal payment equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans, with the balance payable on the maturity date.

Covenant Compliance

Our Amended Credit Agreement contains customary covenants that include, among other things, restrictions on our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to merge and consolidate with other companies, incur indebtedness, grant liens or security interests on assets, pay dividends or make other restricted payments, optionally prepay or modify terms of certain junior indebtedness, sell or otherwise transfer certain assets, or enter into transactions with affiliates (in each case subject to permitted exceptions). We were in compliance with these financial covenants as of December 31, 2025.

Events of Default

The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, subject to grace periods and materiality thresholds, including:

•failure to make payments when due;

•defaults under certain other indebtedness;

•noncompliance with covenants;

53

•bankruptcy or certain insolvency events;

•material judgments;

•invalidity of loan documentation or invalidity or non-perfection of the liens securing a material portion of collateral; and

•a “change of control” (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement).

Guarantee and Security

The obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors. The Term Loans are secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ current and fixed assets (subject to certain exceptions), subject to certain permitted liens.

Revolving Credit Facility

The Fourth Amendment to the Amended Credit Agreement contains a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) which provides for revolving loans, swing line loans, and standby letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $750.0 million and will mature in February 2030 (subject to a springing maturity based on conditions set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement). The Amended Credit Agreement provides for up to $150.0 million of the Revolving Credit Facility is available as swing line loans and up to $250.0 million is available as standby letters of credit.

Concurrently with the Fourth Amendment to the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company repaid all outstanding amounts and terminated its commitments under the credit agreement among Primo Water, as parent borrower, Primo Water Holdings and certain other subsidiary borrowers, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto entered into on March 6, 2020 (as amended on September 23, 2021, January 13, 2023 and July 11, 2024) which provided for a senior secured revolving credit facility in an initial aggregate committed amount of $350.0 million (the “Original Revolving Credit Facility”). The Company also repaid all outstanding amounts and terminated its commitments under the asset based lending revolving credit agreement (“ABL Credit Facility") among Triton Water Holdings and Intermediate Holdings and the lenders thereto entered into on March 31, 2021 which provided for up to $350.0 million of revolving loan commitments.

We recorded $2.9 million of debt issuance costs related to the Revolving Credit Facility during the year ended December 31, 2025. The new debt issuance costs along with $1.4 million of previous unamortized debt issuance costs related to the ABL Credit Facility are being amortized ratably over the remaining duration of the Revolving Credit Facility.

Interest Rate

The interest rate margin applicable to borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility will be, at our option, either (1) the Base Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) (which is the highest of (x) the Federal Funds Rate, plus 0.50%, (y) the Prime Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) on such day, and (z) the one-month SOFR published on such date, plus 1.00%), plus an applicable spread or (2) one-, three- or six-month SOFR or, if available from all lenders, 12-month SOFR or any period less than one month (as may be consented to by each applicable lender thereunder), plus an applicable spread. The applicable spread for SOFR loans under the Revolving Credit Facility ranges from 1.50% to 2.25%, based on the achievement of certain first lien net leverage ratios. The Revolving Credit Facility is subject to a SOFR floor of 0.00%.

We are required to pay a Commitment Fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.30%, based on the Company's first lien net leverage ratio, as defined by the Amended Credit Agreement.

Prepayments

We are required to make prepayments under the Revolving Credit Facility at any time when, and to the extent that, the aggregate amount of the outstanding loans and letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility exceeds the aggregate amount of commitments in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility.

Covenant Compliance

The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to merge and consolidate with other companies, incur indebtedness, grant liens or security interests on assets, make acquisitions, loans, advances, or investments, pay dividends or make other restricted payments, sell or otherwise transfer assets, optionally prepay or modify terms of certain junior indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliates, or change our line of business (in each case subject to permitted exceptions). The Revolving Credit Facility requires

the maintenance of (i) a first lien net leverage ratio of less than or equal to 5.00 to 1.00, with no step-downs, and a 0.50 to 1.00 step-up for any four fiscal quarter period in which a material acquisition is consummated, and (ii) a minimum interest coverage ratio of 2.00 to 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter. We were in compliance with the applicable covenants as of December 31, 2025.

Original 3.875% Senior Notes, Original 4.375% Senior Notes and New Secured Notes

On October 22, 2020, Primo Water Holdings issued €450.0 million ($529.3 million at exchange rates in effect on December 31, 2025) of Original 3.875% Senior Notes to qualified purchasers in a private placement offering under Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and outside the United States to non-U.S. purchasers pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act and other applicable laws.

On April 30, 2021, Primo Water Holdings issued $750.0 million of Original 4.375% Senior Notes to qualified purchasers in a private placement offering under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States to non-U.S. purchasers pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act and other applicable laws.

Pursuant to an indenture, dated as of February 12, 2025, by and among the Issuers, the guarantors party thereto, Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee and notes collateral agent, Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, as paying agent, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Euro registrar (the "Secured Indenture"), the Issuers co-issued the 3.875% Senior Notes and the 4.375% Senior Notes (collectively, the "New Secured Notes") to holders who participated in the Exchange Offers. The Secured Indenture eliminated substantially all of the restrictive covenants, certain of the default provisions, and certain other provisions contained in such indenture as well as to release the note guarantee of each guarantor.

The 3.875% Senior Notes will mature October 31, 2028 and bear interest at a rate of 3.875% per annum, which is payable semi-annually on April 30 and October 31 of each year. The 4.375% Senior Notes will mature on April 30, 2029 and bear interest at a rate of 4.375% per annum, which is payable semi-annually on April 30 and October 31 of each year.

Upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, the Issuers may redeem the New Secured Notes, at their option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, subject to the payment of a redemption price, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date. The redemption price includes a call premium that varies from 0.969% to 0%, in the case of the 3.875% Senior Notes, or from 2.188% to 0%, in the case of the 4.375% Senior Notes, in each case, depending on the year of redemption.

In connection with any tender offer, other offer to purchase, or exchange offer for the New Secured Notes, including pursuant to a change of control, alternate offer, or asset sale offer, each as defined in the Secured Indenture, if not less than 90.0% of the New Secured Notes of the applicable series outstanding are purchased or exchanged by the Issuers or a third party, the Issuers or such third party will have the right to redeem, purchase, or exchange, as applicable, all New Secured Notes of such series that remain outstanding following such purchase or exchange, as applicable, (i) in the case of a tender offer or other offer to purchase, at the price paid to holders of New Secured Notes of the applicable series in such purchase (excluding any early tender premium, to the extent paid in connection with a tender offer, or accrued and unpaid interest paid to such other holders) or (ii) in the case of an exchange offer, for the same consideration provided in such exchange offer, in each case, plus, to the extent not otherwise included in the consideration paid, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption, purchase, or exchange. The holders of the New Secured Notes also have the right to require the Issuers to repurchase their New Secured Notes upon the occurrence of a change in control at an offer price equal to 101.0% of the principal amount of the New Secured Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of repurchase.

The New Secured Notes are guaranteed by the Company and substantially all of our material, wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain customary exceptions (together with the Company, the “Guarantors”). The New Secured Notes and related guarantees are the Issuers’ and Guarantors’ senior secured obligations. In addition, the New Secured Notes are secured on a first lien basis by substantially all of the assets of each of the Issuers and such Guarantors, subject to certain customary exceptions, which liens shall be pari passu with the liens securing the Amended Credit Agreement.

The Secured Indenture contains covenants that limit our (and our subsidiaries’) ability to, among other things: (i) incur additional debt or issue certain preferred stock, (ii) pay dividends, redeem stock, or make other distributions, (iii) make other restricted payments or investments, (iv) create liens on assets, (v) transfer or sell assets, (vi) create restrictions on payment of dividends or other amounts by us to our restricted subsidiaries, (vii) engage in mergers or consolidations, (viii) engage in certain transactions with affiliates, and (ix) designate our subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. Many of the covenants contained in the Secured Indenture will not be applicable, and the guarantees of the New Secured Notes will be released, during any period when the New Secured Notes have an investment grade rating. We were in compliance with the covenants in the Secured Indenture as of December 31, 2025.

The issuance of the 3.875% Senior Notes resulting from the Exchange Offers was accounted for as a modification under U.S. GAAP and $1.2 million of fees were recorded as an unamortized debt discount which is being amortized over the remaining term of the 3.875% Senior Notes.

The issuance of the 4.375% Senior Notes resulting from the Exchange Offers was accounted for as a modification under U.S. GAAP and $1.9 million of fees were recorded as an unamortized debt discount which is being amortized over the remaining term of the 4.375% Senior Notes.

Original 6.250% Senior Notes and 6.250% Senior Notes

On March 31, 2021, Triton Water Holdings issued $770.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its Original 6.250% Senior Notes. We incurred costs of $19.0 million related to the issuance of the Original 6.250% Senior Notes, which were recorded as a reduction of the carrying amount and are being amortized using the effective interest method over a period of eight years, which represents the term to maturity.

Pursuant to an indenture, dated as of February 12, 2025, by and among the Issuers, the Guarantors, and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the "Unsecured Indenture"), the Issuers co-issued the 6.250% Senior Notes to holders who participated in the Exchange Offers.

The 6.250% Senior Notes will mature on April 1, 2029 and bear interest at a rate of 6.250% per annum, which is payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 of each year.

Upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, the Issuers may redeem the 6.250% Senior Notes, at their option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, subject to the payment of a redemption price, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date. The redemption price includes a call premium that varies from 3.125% to 0%, depending on the year of redemption.

In connection with any tender offer, other offer to purchase, or exchange offer for the 6.250% Senior Notes, including pursuant to a change of control, alternate offer, or asset sale offer, each as defined in the Unsecured Indenture, if not less than 90.0% of the 6.250% Senior Notes outstanding are purchased or exchanged by the Issuers or a third party, the Issuers or such third party will have the right to redeem, purchase, or exchange, as applicable, all 6.250% Senior Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase or exchange, as applicable, (i) in the case of a tender offer or other offer to purchase, at the price paid to holders of 6.250% Senior Notes in such purchase (excluding any early tender premium, to the extent paid in connection with a tender offer, or accrued and unpaid interest paid to such other holders) or (ii) in the case of an exchange offer, for the same consideration provided in such exchange offer, in each case, plus, to the extent not otherwise included in the consideration paid, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption, purchase, or exchange. The holders of the 6.250% Senior Notes will also have the right to require the Issuers to repurchase their notes upon the occurrence of a change in control at an offer price equal to 101.0% of the principal amount of the 6.250% Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of repurchase.

The 6.250% Senior Notes are guaranteed by the Guarantors. The 6.250% Senior Notes and related guarantees are the Issuers’ and Guarantors’ senior unsecured obligations. The Unsecured Indenture contains covenants that limit our (and our subsidiaries’) ability to, among other things: (i) incur additional debt or issue certain preferred stock, (ii) pay dividends, redeem stock, or make other distributions, (iii) make other restricted payments or investments, (iv) create liens on assets, (v) transfer or sell assets, (vi) create restrictions on payment of dividends or other amounts by us to our restricted subsidiaries, (vii) engage in mergers or consolidations, (viii) engage in certain transactions with affiliates, and (ix) designate our subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. Many of the covenants contained in the Secured Indenture will not be applicable, and the guarantees of the 6.250% Senior Notes will be released, during any period when the 6.250% Senior Notes have an investment grade rating. We were in compliance with the covenants in the Unsecured Indenture as of December 31, 2025.

The issuance of the 6.250% Senior Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offers was accounted for as a modification under U.S. GAAP and $1.7 million of fees were recorded as an unamortized debt discount which is being amortized over the remaining term of the 6.250% Senior Notes.

Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts

As part of the Transaction, we acquired foreign exchange forward contracts with a combined notional amount of €450.0 million and a maturity date of October 31, 2025 (the "2024 FX Forwards"). Prior to completion of the Exchange Offers, as described above and in Note 12 - "Debt", the derivative financial instruments were utilized to hedge the foreign exchange risk associated with the Original 3.875% Senior Notes. Following completion of the Exchange Offers, such derivative financial instruments were utilized to hedge the foreign exchange risk associated with the €441.9 million 3.875% Senior Notes and €8.1 million non-tendered Original 3.875% Senior Notes (collectively, the "Euro Notes").

On August 6, 2025, we net settled the 2024 FX Forwards and simultaneously entered into new foreign exchange contracts with a combined notional amount of €450.0 million ($529.3 million at exchange rates in effect on December 31, 2025) and a maturity date of November 1, 2027 to hedge the foreign exchange risk associated with the Euro Notes.

Interest Rate Swaps

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we entered into two float-to-fixed interest rate swaps with notional amounts of $250.0 million each, maturing December 31, 2026 and December 31, 2027, respectively, to hedge the variable interest rate risk associated with $500.0 million of Term Loans principal.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Share Repurchases

On March 10, 2025, we entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Triton Water Parent Holdings, LP and its affiliates (the “Sponsor Stockholder”) and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and BofA Securities, Inc., as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), in connection with the underwritten secondary offering by the Sponsor Stockholder of 51,750,000 shares of our Class A common stock, which included the full exercise by the Underwriters of their option to purchase up to 6,750,000 additional shares of Class A common stock, at an offering price of $29.50 per share (the "March Offering"). The March Offering closed on March 12, 2025. The Sponsor Stockholder received all of the net proceeds from the March Offering. No shares were sold by us. Following the March Offering, we were no longer considered a controlled company.

Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, we agreed to purchase 4,000,000 shares of our Class A common stock for approximately $114.1 million from the Underwriters at a price per share equal to the price paid by the Underwriters to the Sponsor Stockholder in the March Offering (the "March Share Repurchase"). We funded the March Share Repurchase with cash on hand and the repurchased shares of Class A common stock are no longer outstanding.

On May 7, 2025, we entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with the Sponsor Stockholder and Triton Water Equity Holdings, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Triton Water Equity Holdings”). Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, we agreed to repurchase 3,157,562 shares of our Class A common stock, from the Sponsor Stockholder and Triton Water Equity Holdings at a price per share equal to the price paid by the underwriters in the May Offering (as defined below) (the "May Share Repurchase"). The May Share Repurchase closed concurrently with the May Offering on May 12, 2025 for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $100.0 million. We funded the May Share Repurchase with cash on hand and the repurchased shares of Class A common stock are no longer outstanding.

The May Offering closed on May 12, 2025. The Sponsor Stockholder and Triton Water Equity Holdings received all of the proceeds from the May Offering. No shares were sold by us.

Share Repurchase Program

On August 6, 2025, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program of $250.0 million of our outstanding Class A common stock (the “Share Repurchase Program”). On November 9, 2025, the Board of Directors approved an increase of $50.0 million to the Share Repurchase Program, bringing the total authorization under the program to $300.0 million worth of our outstanding Class A common stock. Repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program may be made from time to time at the discretion of management through open market purchases, block trades, accelerated or other structured share repurchase programs, privately negotiated transactions, Rule 10b5-1 plans or other means. The manner, timing, pricing and amount of any transactions will be subject to the discretion of management and may be based upon market conditions, regulatory requirements and alternative opportunities that we may have for the use or investment of capital.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we repurchased 10,331,154 shares of our Class A common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $192.9 million through open market transactions under the Share Repurchase Program.

Repurchased shares were subsequently retired. Please refer to the table in Part II, Item 5 of this Annual Report.

Year Ended December 31, 2025 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2024

Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations was $680.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $463.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The $216.5 million increase was due primarily to improved earnings, excluding non-cash charges, of $457.2 million and an increase in cash provided by prepaid and other current and non current assets of $45.7 million, partially offset by an increase in cash used for trade payables and accrued liabilities of $138.5 million, inventories of $33.4 million, and trade receivables of $114.5 million.

Net cash used in investing activities of continuing operations was $337.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of continuing operations of $468.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease of $806.5 million is primarily due to increased additions to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets of $243.5 million and $665.9 million of cash acquired in the Transaction in the prior year not recurring in 2025, partially offset by $56.9 million of proceeds received from the sale of the production facility in Ontario, Canada and assets related to our coffee business and $47.3 million of proceeds from insurance settlements.

Net cash used in financing activities of continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $632.0 million, compared to $362.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The $269.1 million increase was due primarily to an increase in Class A common stock repurchased and cancelled of $411.1 million due primarily to the Share Repurchase Program, an increase in dividends paid to holders of our Class A common stock of $115.6 million representing a full year of activity in the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to one quarter of activity in the prior year and an increase in finance lease principal payments of $26.3 million, as well as $392.0 million in borrowings, net of discount, related to the 2024 Incremental Term Loan in March 2024 and $25.0 million in other borrowings not recurring in 2025. These increases were partially offset by a dividend to the Sponsor Stockholder of $448.6 million, the dividends paid to Primo Water stockholders of $131.5 million and repayments of borrowings of $115.0 million, each of which occurred in 2024 and did not recur in 2025.

1 Payments for the 3.875% Senior Notes and the 4.375% Senior Notes exclude the unamortized discounts of $7.5 million and $31.7 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025.

2 Purchase obligations consist of commitments for the purchase of subscriptions, utilities, services and supplies vital to the Company's operations and ability to serve its customers. These obligations represent the minimum contractual obligations expected under the normal course of business.

We have not provided for federal, state, and foreign deferred income taxes on the undistributed earnings of our subsidiaries. We expect that these earnings will be permanently reinvested by such subsidiaries except in certain instances where repatriation attributable to current earnings results in minimal or no tax consequences. A future change to our assertion that foreign earnings will be permanently reinvested could result in additional income taxes and/or withholding taxes payable, where applicable. Therefore, a higher effective tax rate could occur during the period of repatriation.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as “structured finance or special purpose entities,” which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our significant accounting policies and recently issued accounting pronouncements are described in Note 2 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report. We believe the following represent our critical accounting policies:

Estimates

The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the amount of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Consolidated Financial Statements include estimates and assumptions that, in the opinion of management, were significant to the underlying amounts representing the future valuation of intangible assets, long-lived assets and goodwill, insurance reserves, realization of deferred income tax assets, and the resolution of tax contingencies.

Revenue Recognition

Our principal source of revenue is bottled water sales to customers primarily in the United States. Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods (the obligation), which may be upon shipment of goods or upon delivery

60

Table of Contents

to the customer as defined in the customer contract or purchase order. Revenue is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those goods. Amounts collected from customers for sales taxes are excluded from the transaction price. We measure revenue based on the consideration specified in the customer arrangement, and revenue is recognized when the performance obligations in the customer arrangement are satisfied. A performance obligation is a contractual promise to transfer a distinct good to the customer. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation (we have only one obligation).

The nature of our contracts give rise to variable consideration including volume-based rebates, growth incentives, point of sale promotions, and other trade promotional discounts (sales incentives). For certain sales incentives, the accrual we record for the rebate or discount that will be granted to the customer requires significant estimation. The critical assumptions used in estimating the sales incentive accruals include our estimate of expected levels of performance and redemption rates, which requires judgment. These assumptions are developed based upon the historical performance of the customer's participation with similar types of promotions adjusted for current trends. These estimated sales incentives are included in the transaction price of our contracts with customers as a reduction within net sales and are included as either a reduction in accounts receivable if the customer is entitled to take a deduction on their payment, or as accrued sales incentives in accruals and other current liabilities if we anticipate needing to pay the customer.

Estimated discounts reflected in Trade receivables, net of allowance for expected credit losses were $55.8 million and $61.8 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Accrued sales incentive obligations, recorded in Accruals and other current liabilities, were $36.2 million and $39.8 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, and as a result, impairment tests must be performed at least annually, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired. We perform our annual impairment test in the fourth quarter or more frequently if a triggering event has occurred. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at the asset level.

Primo Brands operates through one operating segment, which is also its sole reportable segment. Reporting units are determined based on one level below the operating segment level and we have determined that have two reporting units. In performing the goodwill impairment test, we may first perform a qualitative assessment or bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to performing the quantitative impairment test. For purposes of the annual test for the year ended December 31, 2025, we elected to perform a qualitative assessment for our two reporting units to assess whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of these reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values. In performing these assessments, factors considered include macroeconomic, industry and market conditions, cost factors that would have a negative effect on earnings and cash flows, legal and regulatory environment, historical financial performance and significant changes in our operations or brand, the impact of which are all significant judgments and estimates. Based on these factors, management concluded that it was more likely than not that the fair values of our reporting units were greater than their respective carrying amounts, including goodwill, indicating no impairment during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Each year during the fourth quarter, we re-evaluate the assumptions used in our assessments, such as revenue growth rates, SG&A expenses, capital expenditures and discount rates, to reflect any significant changes in the business environment that could materially affect the fair value of our reporting units. Based on the evaluations performed in 2025, we determined that the fair value of each of our reporting units exceeded their carrying amounts.

We had goodwill of $3,581.9 million on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2025, which represents amounts for our two reporting units.

Our intangible assets with indefinite lives relate to trademarks and trade names acquired in the acquisition of businesses, and there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic, or other factors that limit the useful life of these intangible assets. We assessed qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the trademarks and trade names were less than their respective carrying value. The qualitative factors we assessed included macroeconomic, industry and market conditions, cost factors that would have a negative effect on earnings and cash flows, legal and regulatory environment, historical financial performance and significant changes in our operations or brand, the impact of which are all significant judgments and estimates.

As a result of our qualitative test, we identified one indefinite-lived intangible asset requiring a quantitative assessment as further detailed below. For the remaining indefinite-lived intangible assets, we concluded that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the trademarks and trade names were greater than their carrying value, therefore we were not required to perform any additional testing on these trademarks and trade names.

61

Table of Contents

During the fourth quarter of 2025, due to a decline in estimated future revenues associated with one of our indefinite-lived trade names identified as part of our qualitative testing, we performed a recoverability test. To determine the fair value of the trade name being evaluated, we used a relief from royalty method of the income approach, which calculates a fair value royalty rate that is applied to revenue forecasts associated with the trade name. The resulting cash flows are discounted using a rate to reflect the risk of achieving the projected royalty savings attributable to the trade name. The assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the trade name are subjective and require significant management judgment, including estimated future revenues, the fair value royalty rate (which is estimated to be a reasonable market royalty charge that would be charged by a licensor of the trade name) and the risk adjusted discount rate. Based on our impairment test, we determined that the trade name was impaired and recognized an impairment charge of $35.6 million within the Intangible asset impairment line item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As of December 31, 2025, intangible assets with indefinite lives have an aggregate book value of $1,122.9 million.

There are inherent uncertainties related to each of the qualitative assumptions, and our judgment in applying them. Changes in the assumptions used in our qualitative and quantitative assessments of goodwill and intangible assets could result in impairment charges that could be material to the consolidated financial statements in any given period.

Insurance Reserves

We are self-insured for workers’ compensation, property, automobile and general liability. The self-insurance claim liability is determined actuarially, at a minimum annually, based on claims filed and an estimate of claims incurred but not yet reported. Actuarial projections of the losses are employed due to variability in the liability estimates. The estimates used are derived from any inputs including the severity of claims, frequency and volume of claims, the development timeframe, settlement history and patterns, and cost trends. We have purchased stop-loss coverage from various insurers in order to limit our claims exposure. The insurance-related liabilities are not discounted. The balances of our self-insurance reserves were $199.2 million and $153.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, of which $32.0 million and $23.8 million, respectively, was covered by insurance. Since recorded amounts are based on estimates, the ultimate cost of all incurred claims and related expenses may be more or less than the recorded liabilities.
