(BYMA: BYMA) reported today financial results for the period of three months ended September 30 th , 2024 (3Q24). In compliance with IAS 29, BYMA presented its results adjusted for inflation. The financial statements are all expressed in inflation adjusted figures as of September 2024. These include both the figures for 2024 as well as those for 2023. The numbers presented herein are mostly historical figures. Those that are adjusted for inflation are clarified in each case. 1 Summary of Financial Statements July-September 2024 (3Q24) MAIN BUSINESS RESULTS Business revenues maintained their growth in real terms: Exchange revenues adjusted for inflation were up by 25% YoY, while those of the Depositary rose 16%, resulting in revenues growing in real terms by 22% against 3Q23. Regarding total expenditures, measured in real terms, they grew 15% YoY. Other operating income fell versus the same quarter of last year by 19% in real terms due to a drop in rates both locally and abroad. The dissimilar evolution in the quarter of inflation (CPI: 12.2%) and the official exchange rate (A3500: 6.5%), implied an inflation adjustment cost that surpassed our financial result. All of the above led to an inflation adjusted net result of ARS 9.704 million for the quarter. In historical terms (current prices), net result for the quarter was income of ARS 46.837 million, a result that was 44% above similar period for previous year. Total expenditures (current prices) were 234%, 21 pp above the accumulated inflation rate between 3Q23 and 3Q24, due to expenses related to higher levels of activity and increases in depreciations and amortizations. LTM EBITDA margin was matched at the all-time high of 73%. 2 BYMA - 3Q24 Results ARS Million Historical Adjusted by Inflation 3Q23 3Q24 Var. 3Q23 3Q24 Var.

This implied a YoY increase 21 pp above the accumulated retail inflation between 3Q23 and 3Q24 (234%). The increases above inflation were explained, mainly, by those categories related to higher activity level, such as Taxes (IIBB) which grew in line with invoicing, Technology expenses which were higher due to devaluation, and Connection with other CSDs, which also were related to more activity. Depreciations and amortizations were up YoY due to the go live of the Nasdaq project, while compensations increased due to pay rises to employees and were below inflation.
