This presentation may contain forward-looking statements concerning PriceSmart, Inc.'s ("PriceSmart", the "Company" or "we") anticipated future revenues and earnings, adequacy of future cash flows, future dividends, omni-channel initiatives, proposed warehouse club openings, the Company's performance relative to competitors and related matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements containing the words "expect," "believe," "will," "may," "should," "project," "estimate," "anticipated," "scheduled," "intend," and like expressions, and the negative thereof. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially including, but not limited to: various political, economic and compliance risks associated with our international operations, adverse changes in economic conditions in our markets, natural disasters, volatility in currency exchange rates and illiquidity of certain local currencies in our markets, competition, consumer and small business spending patterns, political instability, increased costs associated with the integration of online commerce with our traditional business, whether the Company can successfully execute strategic initiatives, our reliance on third party service providers, including those who support transaction and payment processing, data security and other technology services, cybersecurity breaches that could cause disruptions in our systems or jeopardize the security of Member, employee or business information, cost increases from product and service providers, interruption of supply chains, novel coronavirus (COVID-19) related factors and challenges, exposure to product liability claims and product recalls, recoverability of moneys owed to PriceSmart from governments, and other important factors discussed in the Risk Factors section of the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and other factors discussed from time to time in other filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov, including Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date that they are made, and the Company does not undertake to update them, except as required by law. The Company could also be affected by additional factors that apply to all companies operating globally and in the U.S., as well as other risks that are not presently known to the Company or that the Company considers to be immaterial. Forward Looking Statements In addition to relevant GAAP measures, we also provide non-GAAP measures including adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA, net merchandise sales - constant currency and comparable net merchandise sales – constant currency because management believes these metrics are useful to investors and analysts by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. These measures are customary for our industry and commonly used by competitors. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be reviewed in isolation or considered as an alternative to any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. In addition, adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA, net merchandise sales – constant currency and comparable net merchandise sales – constant currency may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry or across different industries. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the Appendix to this presentation. Non-GAAP Financial Measures 2

Our Mission 7
Page 8
Low Prices: Offering the lowest possible selling price is the foundation of our warehouse club. Limited SKUs (Stock Keeping Unit): Helping keep the guesswork out of item selection by only stocking the highest quality products. Private Label, National, and International Brands: We offer our Members low prices on a limited selection of national, international, and private label brands. Private label allows Clubs to offer Members higher quality products at a lower price per unit. Quality: Clubs choose to have high-quality products in inventory at the lowest possible price. This creates the value proposition that encourages a Member pay their Membership fee each year. Our Warehouse Club Membership Model Treasure Hunt: Clubs occasionally feature unique items categorized as “special purchases” due to their limited availability in inventory. These items are secured through exclusive savings, which are passed on to Members. Online Sales: Members can shop on PriceSmart.com or the mobile app from their phone or computer and enjoy home delivery or Club pickup without leaving their car. 8
