Coty Reports In Line Q1 Results, with Q2 Sales Tracking Toward the More Favorable End of Prior Guidance; Expects aReturn to Growth in 2H FY26 BOSS Bottled Beyond Success and Fragrance Mist Expansion Reinforce Global Fragrance & Scenting LeadershipExecutional Improvements Driving Q1 U.S. Prestige Fragrance Sell-Out In Line with Market“All In to Win” Program Continues to Deliver Efficiency, Agility and Cost DisciplineBuilding Performance Improvement Plan for Consumer Beauty While Progressing with Strategic Review NEW YORK - November 5, 2025-- Coty Inc. (NYSE: COTY) (Paris: COTY) ("Coty" or "the Company") today announced its results for the first quarter offiscal year 2026, ended September 30, 2025. Coty delivered Q1 in line with expectations, with Q2 sales tracking toward the more favorable end of priorguidance. Coty's strengthening execution particularly in the U.S. market, combined with strategic initiatives and market-leading fragrance innovations,reinforces the Company’s confidence in returning to profitable sales growth in H2 FY26 and beyond. “Coty’s strategic progress is accelerating as we elevate Coty as a Prestige beauty company with an emphasis on fragrances and scenting across pricepoints, complemented by capabilities in prestige cosmetics and skincare,” said Sue Nabi, CEO of Coty. “In line with our recent strategic announcements,over the coming years we will concentrate investment behind our portfolio brands with the greatest long-term potential, while also building and elevatingour newly added licenses and brands. By integrating Prestige Beauty and Mass Fragrances; unlocking material opportunities in ultra-premiumfragrances, mists and broader scenting; and implementing a performance improvement plan for our Consumer Beauty brands while pursuing ourstrategic review of Consumer Beauty Cosmetics and Brazil, we will ensure that Coty realizes the full value of its scale as a fragrance and scentingpowerhouse. This will further strengthen our Top 3 position in global fragrances. “Following recent changes, Coty’s underlying business trends are already improving, in line to slightly ahead of our expectations, particularly in Prestige.In Q1, our U.S. Prestige fragrance sell-out grew by a mid-to-high single digit percentage, in line with the market, and we expect the U.S. Prestigebusiness to return to both sales and sell-out growth in Q2. “We continue to build on our multi-year track record of leading fragrance innovations. BOSS Bottled Beyond is currently on track to be the #2 malefragrance launch of the fall in Europe, the #1 male launch by volume in Germany, and the #1 male SKU in Australia, and is unlocking a significantuntapped opportunity for Hugo Boss in the U.S. market, where the brand historically had limited presence. We have also expanded into new scentingadjacencies across price points, including our ultra-premium collections, which grew 17% on a reported basis in Q1. Coty also unlocked materialadjacencies with mist launches under Calvin Klein, Kylie Cosmetics, philosophy, adidas and Nautica, with results confirming that fragrance mists boostbrand sales while delivering strong margins. Finally, we are seeing positive early results on internally developed scenting projects, such as the Arabianfragrance collection Jawhara, which has launched on Amazon in the U.S. as well as several retailers across Europe. “We see tremendous potential to accelerate this momentum, driven by a pipeline of new brand launches and innovations, market-leading e-commerce,and globally scaled brick & mortar presence. This includes fragrance launches under Swarovski, Etro and Marni planned within the next two years, andPrestige cosmetics innovations such as makeup under Marc Jacobs Beauty on track to launch in 2026. This multi-pronged approach has underpinnedour success in nurturing and elevating our core designer brands in the last six years, with Burberry, Hugo Boss, Gucci, Chloe and Marc Jacobs allmaterially higher than 2019. “As a result, we expect Q2 sales to be at the more favorable end of our previous guidance, with a return to sales and profit growth in the second half ofFY26.” 1

Consistent with its prior outlook, Coty expects a gradual improvement in sales trends over the course of FY26 from the 4Q25 LFL levels, when theCompany actively intervened to clean up the baseline of the business. With strong sales delivery in the month of October, particularly in Prestige, Cotyexpects Q2 LFL sales to be at the more favorable end of prior guidance of a LFL decline of -3% to -5%, with sequential trend improvement in bothPrestige and Consumer Beauty. On the reported revenue side, Coty estimates a low-to-mid-single-digit percentage FX benefit in Q2. The Companycontinues to expect LFL sales to return to growth in 2H26, as sell-in and sell-out reach alignment, and supported by several key launches in Prestige, aswell as more favorable comparisons. Coty continues to expect a gradual profit trend improvement, with adjusted EBITDA declining by a low-to-mid teens percentage in 2Q26, consistent withits prior guidance. The Company also expects to return to adjusted EBITDA growth in 2H26, targeting $1 billion in adjusted EBITDA in FY26. While thisoutlook implies very strong year-over-year expansion in 2H26 adjusted EBITDA, this is primarily a function of prior year comparisons, with an impliedlow-single-digit growth in 2H26 adjusted EBITDA on a 2-year basis. Coty expects Q2 adjusted EPS, excluding the equity swap, of $0.18 to $0.21, bringing the 1H26 adjusted EPS to $0.33 to $0.36, consistent with priorguidance. The Company continues to expect 2H26 adjusted EPS to return to growth. The Company continues to expect seasonally strong free cash flow in 1H26 of over $350 million, resulting in leverage at the end of CY25 approximatelyin line with the 4Q25 level of ~3.5x, reflecting the lower adjusted EBITDA and FX headwinds from the Euro-denominated debt. The Company remainsfully focused on deleveraging over CY26 and beyond, targeting an investment grade profile, and is actively pursuing the monetization of Wella.

When used herein, the term “includes” and “including” means, unless the context otherwise indicates, “including without limitation”. More informationabout potential risks and uncertainties that could affect the Company’s business and financial results is included under the heading “Risk Factors” and“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the yearended June 30, 2025 and other periodic reports the Company has filed and may file with the SEC from time to time. All forward-looking statements made in this release are qualified by these cautionary statements. These forward-looking statements are made only as ofthe date of this release, and the Company does not undertake any obligation, other than as may be required by applicable law, to update or revise anyforward-looking or cautionary statements to reflect changes in assumptions, the occurrence of events, unanticipated or otherwise, or changes in futureoperating results over time or otherwise. Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance unlessexpressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data. Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, we use non-GAAP financial measures for Coty Inc. including Adjustedoperating income (loss), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income (loss), and Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Coty Inc. to common stockholders(collectively, the “Adjusted Performance Measures”). The reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financialmeasures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are shown in tables below. These non-GAAP financial measures should not beconsidered in isolation from, or as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures reported in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, these non-GAAPfinancial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all the items associated with the operations of the business as determined in accordancewith GAAP. Other companies, including companies in the beauty industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures differently than wedo, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes. Despite the limitations of these non-GAAP financial measures, our management uses the Adjusted Performance Measures as key metrics in theevaluation of our performance and annual budgets and to benchmark performance of our business against our competitors. The following are examplesof how these Adjusted Performance Measures are utilized by our management: • strategic plans and annual budgets are prepared using the Adjusted Performance Measures; • senior management receives a monthly analysis comparing budget to actual operating results that is prepared using the Adjusted PerformanceMeasures; and • senior management’s annual compensation is calculated, in part, by using some of the Adjusted Performance Measures. In addition, our financial covenant compliance calculations under our debt agreements are substantially derived from these Adjusted PerformanceMeasures. 11
Page 12
Our management believes that Adjusted Performance Measures are useful to investors in their assessment of our operating performance and thevaluation of the Company. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures address questions we routinely receive from analysts and investors and, inorder to ensure that all investors have access to the same data, our management has determined that it is appropriate to make this data available to allinvestors. The Adjusted Performance Measures exclude the impact of certain items (as further described below) and provide supplemental informationregarding our operating performance. By disclosing these non-GAAP financial measures, our management intends to provide investors with asupplemental comparison of our operating results and trends for the periods presented. Our management believes these measures are also useful toinvestors as such measures allow investors to evaluate our performance using the same metrics that our management uses to evaluate pastperformance and prospects for future performance. We provide disclosure of the effects of these non-GAAP financial measures by presenting thecorresponding measure prepared in conformity with GAAP in our financial statements, and by providing a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAPmeasure so that investors may understand the adjustments made in arriving at the non-GAAP financial measures and use the information to performtheir own analyses. Adjusted operating income/Adjusted EBITDA excludes restructuring costs and business structure realignment programs, amortization, acquisition- anddivestiture-related costs and acquisition accounting impacts, stock-based compensation, and asset impairment charges and other adjustments asdescribed below. For adjusted EBITDA, in addition to the preceding, we exclude adjusted depreciation as defined below. We do not consider these itemsto be reflective of our core operating performance due to the variability of such items from period-to-period in terms of size, nature and significance.They are primarily incurred to realign our operating structure and integrate new acquisitions, and implement divestitures of components of our business,and fluctuate based on specific facts and circumstances. Additionally, Adjusted net income attributable to Coty Inc. and Adjusted net income attributableto Coty Inc. per common share are adjusted for certain interest and other (income) expense items, as described below, and the related tax effects ofeach of the items used to derive Adjusted net income as such charges are not used by our management in assessing our operating performance period-to-period. Adjusted Performance Measures reflect adjustments based on the following items: • Costs related to acquisition and divestiture activities: The Company has excluded acquisition- and divestiture-related costs and the accountingimpacts such as those related to transaction costs and costs associated with the revaluation of acquired inventory in connection with businesscombinations because these costs are unique to each transaction. Additionally, for divestitures, the Company excludes write-offs of assets thatare no longer recoverable and contract related costs due to the divestiture. The nature and amount of such costs vary significantly based on thesize and timing of the acquisitions and divestitures, and the maturities of the businesses being acquired or divested. Also, the size, complexityand/or volume of past transactions, which often drives the magnitude of such expenses, may not be indicative of the size, complexity and/orvolume of any future acquisitions or divestitures. • Restructuring and other business realignment costs: The Company has excluded costs associated with restructuring and business structurerealignment programs to allow for comparable financial results to historical operations and forward-looking guidance. In addition, the nature andamount of such charges vary significantly based on the size and timing of the programs. By excluding the referenced expenses from the non-GAAP financial measures, management is able to further evaluate the Company's ability to utilize existing assets and estimate their long-termvalue. Furthermore, our management believes that the adjustment of these items supplements the GAAP information with a measure that canbe used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance. • Asset impairment charges: The Company has excluded the impact of asset impairments as such non-cash amounts are inconsistent in amountand frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions. Our management believes that the adjustment of theseitems supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance. • Amortization expense: The Company has excluded the impact of amortization of finite-lived intangible assets, as such non-cash amounts areinconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions. Our management believes that theadjustment of these items supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the sustainability of our operatingperformance. Although we exclude amortization of intangible assets from our non-GAAP expenses, our management believes that it is importantfor investors to understand that such intangible assets contribute to revenue generation. Amortization of intangible assets that relate to pastacquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Any future acquisitions may result in theamortization of additional intangible assets. 12
Page 13
• Gain or loss on sale and early license termination: The Company has excluded the impact of gain or loss on sale and early license terminationas such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the size of the sale and early license termination. • Costs related to market exit: The Company has excluded the impact of direct incremental costs related to our decision to wind down ourbusiness operations in Russia. We believe that these direct and incremental costs are inconsistent and infrequent in nature. Consequently, ourmanagement believes that the adjustment of these items supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess thesustainability of our operating performance. • Gains on sale of real estate: The Company has excluded the impact of gains on sale of real estate as such amounts are inconsistent in amountand frequency and are significantly impacted by the size of the sale. Our management believes that the adjustment of these items supplementsthe GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance. • Stock-based compensation: Although stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to our employees, we have excluded the effect ofthese expenses from the calculation of adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA. This is due to their primarily non-cash nature; inaddition, the amount and timing of these expenses may be highly variable and unpredictable, which may negatively affect comparability betweenperiods. • Depreciation and Adjusted depreciation: Our adjusted operating income excludes the impact of accelerated depreciation for certain restructuringprojects that affect the expected useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment, as such charges vary significantly based on the size and timingof the programs. Further, we have excluded adjusted depreciation, which represents depreciation expense net of accelerated depreciationcharges, from our adjusted EBITDA. Our management believes that the adjustment of these items supplements the GAAP information with ameasure that can be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance. • Other (income) expense: The Company has excluded the impact of pension curtailment (gains) and losses and pension settlements as suchevents are triggered by our restructuring and other business realignment activities and the amount of such charges vary significantly based onthe size and timing of the programs. Further, we have excluded the change in fair value of the investment in Wella, as well as expenses relatedto potential or actual sales transactions reducing equity investments, as our management believes these unrealized (gains) and losses do notreflect our underlying ongoing business, and the adjustment of such impact helps investors and others compare and analyze performance fromperiod to period. Such transactions do not reflect our operating results and we have excluded the impact as our management believes that theadjustment of these items supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the sustainability of our operatingperformance.• Noncontrolling interest: This adjustment represents the after-tax impact of the non-GAAP adjustments included in Net income attributable tononcontrolling interests based on the relevant noncontrolling interest percentage. • Tax: This adjustment represents the impact of the tax effect of the pretax items excluded from Adjusted net income. The tax impact of the non-GAAP adjustments is based on the tax rates related to the jurisdiction in which the adjusted items are received or incurred. Additionally,adjustments are made for the tax impact of any intra-entity transfer of assets and liabilities. Also, in connection with our market exit in Russia, wehave adjusted for the release of tax charges previously taken related to certain direct incremental impacts of the decision. The Company has provided a quantitative reconciliation of the difference between the non-GAAP financial measures and the financial measurescalculated and reported in accordance with GAAP. For a reconciliation of adjusted gross profit to gross profit, adjusted EPS (diluted) to EPS (diluted),and adjusted net revenues to net revenues, see the table entitled “Reconciliation of Reported to Adjusted Results for the Consolidated Statements ofOperations.” For a reconciliation of adjusted operating income to operating income and adjusted operating income margin to operating income margin,see the tables entitled “Reconciliation of Reported Operating Income (Loss) to Adjusted Operating Income” and "Reconciliation of Reported OperatingIncome (Loss) to Adjusted Operating Income by Segment." For a reconciliation of adjusted effective tax rate to effective tax rate, see the table entitled“Reconciliation of Reported Income (Loss) Before Income Taxes and Effective Tax Rates to Adjusted Income Before Income Taxes and AdjustedEffective Tax Rates.” For a reconciliation of adjusted net income and adjusted net 13
Page 14
income margin to net income (loss), see the table entitled “Reconciliation of Reported Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted Net Income.” The Company also presents free cash flow, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA"), immediateliquidity, Financial Net Debt. Management believes that these measures are useful for investors because it provides them with an important perspectiveon the cash available for debt repayment and other strategic measures and provides them with the same measures that management uses as the basisfor making resource allocation decisions. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures; adjustedEBITDA is defined as adjusted operating income, excluding adjusted depreciation and non-cash stock-based compensation. Net debt or Financial NetDebt (which the Company referred to as "net debt" in prior reporting periods) is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents. For a reconciliationof Free Cash Flow, see the table entitled “Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow,” for adjusted EBITDA, see thetable entitled “Reconciliation of Adjusted Operating Income to Adjusted EBITDA” and for Financial Net Debt, see the tables entitled “Reconciliation ofTotal Debt to Financial Net Debt.” Further, our immediate liquidity is defined as the sum of available cash and cash equivalents and available borrowingsunder our Revolving Credit Facility (please see table "Immediate Liquidity"). We operate on a global basis, with the majority of our net revenues generated outside of the U.S. Accordingly, fluctuations in foreign currency exchangerates can affect our results of operations. Therefore, to supplement financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, certain financial information ispresented in “constant currency”, excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange translations to provide a framework for assessing how ourunderlying businesses performed excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange translations. Constant currency information compares resultsbetween periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. We calculate constant currency information by translating current andprior-period results for entities reporting in currencies other than U.S. dollars into U.S. dollars using prior year foreign currency exchange rates. Theconstant currency calculations do not adjust for the impact of revaluing specific transactions denominated in a currency that is different to the functionalcurrency of that entity when exchange rates fluctuate, or for the impacts of hyperinflation. The constant currency information we present may not becomparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance withGAAP. To the extent that the Company provides guidance, it does so only on a non-GAAP basis and does not provide reconciliations of such forward-lookingnon-GAAP measures to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation,including adjustments that could be made for restructuring, integration and acquisition-related expenses, amortization expenses, non-cash stock-basedcompensation, adjustments to inventory, and other charges reflected in our reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historicalexperience, could be significant. - Tables Follow - 14

The difference is primarilydue to the loss on forward repurchase contracts having a higher proportional impact in the prior period. See a description of adjustments under “Reconciliation of Reported Net Income to Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted EBITDA for Coty Inc. The tax effects of each of the items included in adjusted income are calculated in a manner that results in a corresponding income tax expense/provision for adjusted income. In preparing the calculation, eachadjustment to reported income is first analyzed to determine if the adjustment has an income tax consequence. The provision for taxes is then calculated based on the jurisdiction in which the adjusted items areincurred, multiplied by the respective statutory rates and offset by the increase or reversal of any valuation allowances commensurate with the non-GAAP measure of profitability. The amount represents the unrealized (gain) loss recognized for the change in the fair value of the investment in Wella. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, this primarily represents recovery of previously written-off non-income tax credits and the amortization of basis differences in certain equity method investments.

Three Months Ended September 30, (in millions) 2025 2024 Change Net income attributable to Coty Inc. $ 67.9 $ 82.9 (18%) Convertible Series B Preferred Stock dividends (3.3) (3.3) —% Reported Net income attributable to common stockholders$ 64.6 $ 79.6 (19%) % of Net revenues 4.1% 4.8% Adjustments to Reported Operating income 55.5 65.8 (16%) Change in fair value of investment in Wella Company (1.0) — N/A Adjustments to other expense — (0.3) 100% Adjustments to noncontrolling interests (1.7) (1.7) —% Change in tax provision due to adjustments to Reported Net (loss) income attributableto Coty Inc. (11.4) (15.3) 25% Adjusted Net (loss) income attributable to Coty Inc.$ 106.0 $ 128.1 (17%) % of Net revenues 6.7% 7.7% Per Share Data Adjusted weighted-average common shares Basic 872.8 867.9 Diluted 876.3 899.0 Adjusted Net income attributable to Coty Inc. per Common Share Basic $ 0.12 $ 0.15 Diluted $ 0.12 $ 0.15 Adjusted diluted EPS includes $0.03 hurt related to the net impact of the Total Return Swaps in the three months ended September 30, 2025.Adjusted diluted EPS includes $0.03 hurt related to the net impact of the Total Return Swaps in the three months ended September 30, 2024,respectively. See a description of adjustments under “Net Income, Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted EBITDA for Coty Inc.” The amounts represent the after-tax impact of the non-GAAP adjustments included in Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest based on the relevant noncontrolling interest percentage in theCondensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Diluted EPS is adjusted by the effect of dilutive securities, including awards under the Company's equity compensation plans, the Convertible Series B Preferred Stock, and the Forward RepurchaseContracts. When calculating any potential dilutive effect of stock options, Series A Preferred Stock, restricted stock, and RSUs, the Company uses the treasury method and the if-converted method forthe Convertible Series B Preferred Stock and the Forward Repurchase Contracts. The treasury method typically does not adjust the net income attributable to Coty Inc., while the if-converted methodrequires an adjustment to reverse the impact of the preferred stock dividends of $3.3, and to reverse the impact of fair market value losses for contracts with the option to settle in shares or cash of$26.5 and $24.6, respectively, if dilutive, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 on net income applicable to common stockholders during the period. The amount represents the unrealized (gain) loss recognized for the change in the fair value of the investment in Wella. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, this primarily represents recovery of previously written-off non-income tax credits and the amortization of basis differences in certain equity methodinvestments. Adjusted Diluted EPS is adjusted by the effect of dilutive securities. For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, no dilutive shares of the Forward Repurchase Contracts were includedin the computation of adjusted diluted EPS as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, we did not reverse the impact of the fair market value losses for contracts with the option to settle inshares or cash of $26.5 and $24.6, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, Convertible Series B Preferred Stock (23.7 million weighted average dilutive shares) was anti-dilutive.Accordingly, we excluded these shares from the diluted shares and did not adjust the earnings for the related dividend of $3.3. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, as the ConvertibleSeries B Preferred Stock was dilutive, an adjustment to reverse the impact of the preferred stock dividends of $3.3 was required (c) (a) (d) (e) (b) (c)(f) (c) (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) 21
