MANAGEMENT COMMENTS
Continued momentum driven by COVID-19 recovery and our consistent commercial strategy
We delivered another strong commercial performance in 3Q21, achieving the highest consolidated volumes in a third quarter on record, delivering strong topline growth of 20.8% on top of a challenging comparable in 3Q20, and 42.9% growth when compared to 3Q19. We continued to grow our volumes by 7.7% versus 3Q20 and 20.8% versus 3Q19, with eight of our top-ten markets already growing above 3Q19. NR/hl grew 12.1% driven by premiumization, innovation, and revenue management initiatives.
Top-line continued to recover ahead of bottom-line. COGS per hectoliter increased 18.5% due to expected FX and commodities impacts. SG&A grew by 19.3%, affected mostly by variable compensation accruals. As a result, Normalized EBITDA increased by 9.4%.

ESG
Ambev was awarded first place, for the ninth time, in the Food and Beverage sector of the “Valor 1000” yearbook, showcasing the best companies in 26 industries, as well as presenting the ranking of the 1,000 largest companies in Brazil.
Great Place to Work
Ambev was chosen as one of the top 5 places to work in Brazil among large companies, according to the Great Place to Work. Our technology branch, Ambev Tech, was also listed between the best 150 companies in Brazil.
Climate Action
In September, we announced the first carbon neutral large brewery and malt plant in Brazil: Ponta Grossa Brewery (PR) and Passo Fundo Malt Plant (RS). These two plants reached 90% reduction of CO2 emissions and had the remaining 10% emissions neutralized via carbon credits, reducing approximately 9,700 ton of CO2 annually, the equivalent of 1,300 cars removed from the streets in Brazil. We have also reached 100% renewable energy for our breweries in Panama, the Dominican Republic and Guatemala. This is part of our larger decarbonization plan, aiming at a net zero footprint in the coming years.

KEY MARKETS PERFORMANCES
Beer Brazil: solid volume performance over a challenging comparable, driven by COVID-19 recovery and commercial strategy
· | Operating performance: We outperformed the industry for the fifth consecutive quarter according to our estimates, growing volume by 7.5% versus 3Q20 and 34.8% versus 3Q19. We continue to seize our top line momentum with a solid performance in net revenue, growing 16.2%, and NR/hl, growing 8,2%, due primarily to revenue management initiatives and favorable brand mix. EBITDA fell by 8.5% as top-line growth was offset by anticipated transactional FX and commodity headwinds, variable compensation accruals, and sales and marketing investments (the latter with a hard comparable in 3Q20 due to COVID-19 pandemic). In YTD21, our volumes grew by 11.8%, Net revenue increased by 23.6%, with a NR/hl growth of 10.6%, and Normalized EBITDA grew by 0.1%. |
· | Commercial highlights: our innovations continue to represent over 20% of revenues, and we over-index in total beer innovations share. Our premium brands, with continued momentum, grew by high teens. We began to roll out Spaten, a Munich Helles style, pure-malt beer, established in 1397, within our Core Plus portfolio. Core brands once again showed their resilience as Skol, Brahma and Antarctica families grew volumes above 3Q20 and 3Q19. BEES continued expanding across the country: we already reach more than 85% of our active customers via the platform, while we once again reached all-time high beer buyers and NPS. Zé Delivery achieved an all-time-high number of operators and fulfilled more than 15 million orders in 3Q21, with a growth trend in the number of orders throughout the quarter. Donus TPV grew 3x versus 2Q21 as we doubled our customer base in 3Q21. |

NAB Brazil: Strong commercial performance supported by BEES and our premium brands portfolio, with volumes above 3Q20 and 3Q19
· | Operating performance: Continued recovery of our non-alcoholic business, with net revenue growing 22.4% versus 3Q20 and 25.7% versus 3Q19. Volume grew 9.8% resulting in market share gains according to our estimates. NR/hl increased by 11.5%, driven by revenue management initiatives and favorable brand mix, supported by the gradual recovery of mobility. EBITDA declined by 20.8%, as strong top-line growth was offset by the anticipated transactional FX and commodity headwinds, as well as bonus accrual. In YTD21, our volumes grew by 11.2%. Net revenue increased by 21.5%, with a NR/hl growth of 9.3%, and Normalized EBITDA declined by 7.2%. |
· | Commercial highlights: The continued return of out-of-home occasions supported volume growth of our premium brands, particularly in single-serve packaging, driving positive brand mix. Guaraná Antarctica turned 100 years and we announced that by December 2021, 100% of its bottles will be made of recycled PET. NAB portfolio continued to benefit from BEES adoption by our clients, allowing us to reach another all-time high number of buyers. |

Central America and the Caribbean (CAC): premiumization and BEES driving consistent top-line growth
· | Operating performance: Net revenue grew by 20.4% driven by a solid performance across our top-three countries (Dominican Republic, Panama and Guatemala), showing strong business fundamentals amid COVID-19 pandemic recovery. Volume grew by 8.9%, while NR/hl grew 10.6%, driven by revenue management initiatives, premiumization and BEES.

Net revenue increased by 37.2%, with a NR/hl growth of 11.2% and Normalized EBITDA grew by 34.0%. |
· | Commercial highlights: above core brands portfolio momentum continues to drive volume growth in CAC markets.

Canada4: Solid NR/hl growth coupled with expenses management helped to offset volume shortfall driven by a weak industry performance and supply chain constraints
· | Operating performance: A weakened beer industry given persistent restrictions, paired with some supply chain constraints, drove our 6.6% volume decline. We managed to deliver a flat EBITDA versus 3Q20, through a combination of solid NR/hl growth of 4.5% and SG&A expense management which offset COGS/hl commodity headwinds. In YTD21, our volumes fell by 2.3%. However, Net revenue increased by 0.5%, with a NR/hl growth of 2.8%, and Normalized EBITDA also grew by 4.2%. |
· | Commercial highlights: brand power grew led by our above core portfolio where Corona remains the most appealing brand in Canada and grew volumes versus 3Q20 and 3Q19. Outperformance of our premium and beyond beer brands translated into positive brand mix. |

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAX & SOCIAL
On September 24, 2021, the Brazilian Supreme Court decided that interest over claims (including tax credits recognized in 2019, 2020 and 2Q21) is not taxable for the Corporate Income Tax purposes since its nature is not an income, but rather an indemnity. This resulted in a total reversion of approximately R$ 754 million of Deferred Taxes Liabilities in 3Q21. For further references please see Note 21 of our Financial Statements.
The table below demonstrates the tax and social contribution provision.

FINANCIAL REPORTING IN HYPERINFLATIONARY ECONOMIES - ARGENTINA
Following the categorization of Argentina as a country with a three-year cumulative inflation rate greater than 100%, the country is considered highly inflationary in accordance with IFRS.
Consequently, starting from 3Q18, we have been reporting the operations of our Argentinean affiliates applying Hyperinflation Accounting. The IFRS and CPC rules (IAS 29/CPC 42) require the results of our operations in hyperinflationary economies to be reported restating the year-to-date results adjusting for the change in the general purchasing power of the local currency, using official indices, before converting the local amounts at the closing rate of the period (i.e., September 30, 2021 closing rate for 3Q21 and YTD21 results).
The YTD21 Hyperinflation Accounting adjustment results from the combined effect of (i) the indexation to reflect changes in purchasing power on the YTD21 results against a dedicated line in the finance results, and (ii) the difference between the translation of the YTD21 results at the closing exchange rate of September 30, 2021, and the translation using the average year to date rate on the reported period, as applicable to non-inflationary economies. 3Q21 results under Hyperinflation Accounting are calculated as the difference between reported YTD21 and HY21 results.
The impacts in 3Q20, YTD20, 3Q21 and YTD21 on Net Revenue and Normalized EBITDA were as follows:
Impact of Hyperinflation Accounting (IAS 29/CPC42) | ||||
Revenue | ||||
R$ million | 3Q20 | 3Q21 | YTD20 | YTD21 |
Indexation(1) | 244.4 | 357.9 | 393.8 | 707.9 |
Currency(2) | (150.7) | 255.2 | (51.9) | (244.4) |
Total Impact | 93.7 | 613.1 | 341.9 | 463.5 |
Normalized EBITDA | ||||
R$ million | 3Q20 | 3Q21 | YTD20 | YTD21 |
Indexation(1) | 82.9 | 113.6 | 126.8 | 222.8 |
Currency(2) | (46.2) | 84.4 | (16.1) | (80.4) |
Total Impact | 36.7 | 198.0 | 110.7 | 142.4 |
(1) | Indexation calculated at each period’s closing exchange rate. |
(2) | Currency impact calculated as the difference between converting the Argentinean peso (ARS) reported amounts at the closing exchange rate compared to the average exchange rate of each period. |
Furthermore, IAS 29 requires adjusting non-monetary assets and liabilities on the balance sheet of our operations in hyperinflationary economies for cumulative inflation. The resulting effect from the adjustment until December 31, 2017 was reported in Equity and, the effect from the adjustment from this date on, in a dedicated account in the finance results, reporting deferred taxes on such adjustments, when applicable.
In 3Q21, the transition to Hyperinflation Accounting in accordance with the IFRS rules resulted in (i) a positive R$ 250.5 million adjustment reported in the finance results; (ii) a negative impact on the Profit of R$ 0.9 million; (iii) a positive impact on the Normalized Profit of R$ 2.8 million; and (iv) no material impact on EPS, as well as on Normalized EPS.
In YTD21, the consequences of the transition were (i) a positive R$ 654.3 million adjustment reported in the finance results; (ii) a negative impact on the Profit of R$ 236.4 million; (iii) a negative impact on the Normalized Profit of R$ 232.8 million; and (iv) negative impact of R$ 0.02 on EPS and negative impact of R$ 0.01 on Normalized EPS.
The 3Q21 results are calculated by deducting from the YTD results the HY results as published. Consequently, LAS and Consolidated 3Q21 and 3Q20 results are impacted by the adjustment of HY results for the cumulative

inflation between June 30 and September 30, as well as by the translation of HY results at the YTD closing exchange rate, of September 30, as follows:

RECONCILIATION BETWEEN NORMALIZED EBITDA & PROFIT
Both Normalized EBITDA and EBIT are measures used by Ambev’s management to measure the Company’s performance.
Normalized EBITDA is calculated excluding from Profit the following effects: (i) Non-controlling interest; (ii) Income Tax expense; (iii) Share of results of associates; (iv) Net finance results; (v) Exceptional items; and (vi) Depreciation & Amortization.
Normalized EBITDA and EBIT are not accounting measures under accounting practices in Brazil, IFRS or the United States of America (US GAAP) and should not be considered as an alternative to Profit as a measure of operational performance or an alternative to Cash Flow as a measure of liquidity. Normalized EBITDA and EBIT do not have a standard calculation method and Ambev’s definition of Normalized EBITDA and EBIT may not be comparable to that of other companies.

NOTES
This press release segregates the impact of organic changes from those arising from changes in scope or currency translation. Scope changes represent the impact of acquisitions and divestitures, the start up or termination of activities or the transfer of activities between segments, curtailment gains and losses and year-over-year changes in accounting estimates and other assumptions that management does not consider as part of the underlying performance of the business. Organic growth and normalized numbers are presented applying constant year-over-year exchange rates to exclude the impact of the movement of foreign exchange rates.
Unless stated, percentage changes in this press release are both organic and normalized in nature. Whenever used in this document, the term “normalized” refers to performance measures (EBITDA, EBIT, Profit, EPS) before exceptional items adjustments. Exceptional items are either income or expenses which do not occur regularly as part of the normal activities of the Company. They are presented separately because they are important for the understanding of the underlying sustainable performance of the Company due to their size or nature.
