Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Operating margin = operating income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2025 revenue ÷ FY2024 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

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” refer 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 our 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 for 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

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

33

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 future results

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.

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.
