USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses non-GAAP operating income/(loss) and non-GAAP net income/(loss), each a non-GAAP financial measure, in reviewing and assessing the Company’s operating performance. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company presents these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by the Company’s management to evaluate operating performance and formulate business plans. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in the Company’s business, provide further information about the Company’s results of operations and enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects. The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations and do not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Furthermore, these non-GAAP measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited. The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance. The Company encourages investors and others to review the Company’s financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. The Company defines non-GAAP operating income/(loss) as operating income/(loss) excluding share-based compensation expenses, non-GAAP net income/(loss) as net income/(loss) excluding recurring item of share-based compensation expenses, non-recurring item of provision for equity litigants settlement, and income tax effects of GAAP to non-GAAP reconciling items, and non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders as net income/(loss) attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders excluding recurring item of share-based compensation expenses, non- recurring item of provision for equity litigants settlement, and income tax effects of GAAP to non-GAAP reconciling items. For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Directly Comparable GAAP Measures” set forth at the end of this earnings release.

CHANGES IN INVENTORY ACCOUNTING Effective from July 1, 2025, the Company elected to change its method of accounting for certain of its inventories, primarily coffee beans produced in its roasting factories, from the weighted average method to the specific identification method, specifically, the by-batch method. The Company believes the by- batch method of accounting for coffee bean inventory in its roasting factories is preferable because this method: (i) better aligns the accounting records with the physical flow of inventories; (ii) better reflects the current cost of assets; and (iii) better represents how the management assesses the performances of different business units and better supports them to make strategic decisions. The effects of the change in accounting method have been retrospectively applied to all periods presented in all sections of this press release on Form 6-K. The following financial statement line items within the accompanying unaudited interim 2024 and 2025 quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements were adjusted as follows, with all amounts presented in thousands of RMB, except for per share data: For the three months ended December 31, 2025 For the three months ended December 31, 2024 As Calculated (Weighted average method) As Reported (Specific identification method) Effect of Change As Previously Reported (Weighted average method) As Adjusted (Specific identification method) Effect of Change RMB RMB RMB RMB RMB RMB Cost of materials (5,075,735) (5,107,775) (32,040) (3,847,193) (3,834,449) 12,744 Total operating expenses (11,923,352) (11,955,392) (32,040) (8,618,263) (8,605,519) 12,744 Operating income 853,481 821,441 (32,040) 995,014 1,007,758 12,744 Net income before income taxes 880,493 848,453 (32,040) 985,638 998,382 12,744 Income tax expense (338,273) (330,263) 8,010 (144,505) (147,691) (3,186) Net income 542,220 518,190 (24,030) 841,133 850,691 9,558 Net income attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders 542,220 518,190 (24,030) 841,133 850,691 9,558 Net income per share: Basic 0.21 0.20 (0.01) 0.33 0.33 0.00 Diluted 0.21 0.20 (0.01) 0.33 0.33 0.00 Net income per ADS: Basic 1.68 1.60 (0.08) 2.64 2.64 0.00 Diluted 1.68 1.60 (0.08) 2.64 2.64 0.00 Net income 542,220 518,190 (24,030) 841,133 850,691 9,558 Total comprehensive income 490,065 466,035 (24,030) 944,568 954,126 9,558 Total comprehensive income attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders 490,065 466,035 (24,030) 944,568 954,126 9,558 For the year ended December 31, 2025 For the year ended December 31, 2024 As Calculated (Weighted average method) As Reported (Specific identification method) Effect of Change As Previously Reported (Weighted average method) As Adjusted (Specific identification method) Effect of Change RMB RMB RMB RMB RMB RMB Cost of materials (18,777,806) (18,783,453) (5,647) (14,115,299) (14,083,291) 32,008 Total operating expenses (44,209,513) (44,215,160) (5,647) (30,936,753) (30,904,745) 32,008 Operating income 5,078,582 5,072,935 (5,647) 3,538,061 3,570,069 32,008 Net income before income taxes 5,285,822 5,280,175 (5,647) 3,694,254 3,726,262 32,008 Income tax expense (1,681,205) (1,679,793) 1,412 (762,551) (770,553) (8,002) Net income 3,604,617 3,600,382 (4,235) 2,931,703 2,955,709 24,006 Net income attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders 3,604,617 3,600,382 (4,235) 2,931,703 2,955,709 24,006 Net income per share: Basic 1.41 1.40 (0.01) 1.15 1.16 0.01 Diluted 1.40 1.40 0.00 1.15 1.16 0.01 Net income per ADS: Basic 11.28 11.20 (0.08) 9.20 9.28 0.08 Diluted 11.20 11.20 0.00 9.20 9.28 0.08 Net income 3,604,617 3,600,382 (4,235) 2,931,703 2,955,709 24,006 Total comprehensive income 3,497,723 3,493,488 (4,235) 2,973,295 2,997,301 24,006 Total comprehensive income attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders 3,497,723 3,493,488 (4,235) 2,973,295 2,997,301 24,006
