Figures in tables and exhibits have been rounded and may not add up exactly to the total shown. All growth or variation references in this Earnings Release refer to 2Q25 compared to 2Q24, unless otherwise stated. In 3Q24 we started consolidating "Aguas de Origen" (ADO), our water business in Argentina, and in 4Q24 we started consolidating our partnership with the Vierci Group (AV) in Paraguay. Organic figures and variations for volumes, Net sales, COGS and Gross profit, presented in this report exclude the impact of the consolidation of these businesses. Given the integration of AV into our operations in Paraguay, figures and variations for MSD&A expenses, EBIT, EBITDA, Non-operating results, Income taxes, and Net income are presented on a consolidated basis. Results of 2Q24 include a non-recurring gain from the sale of a portion of land in Chile, totalizing a gain before taxes of CLP 28,669 million, and a gain after taxes of CLP 20,928 million. At the Operating segments level, this non-recurring effect was accounted in Others/eliminations. COMMENTS FROM THE CEO Comments below exclude the non-recurring gain from the sale of a portion of land in Chile in 2Q24 4 . Also, comments related to the consolidated and the International Business Operating segment results consider organic figures for volumes, Net sales, COGS and Gross profit; this is, excluding the consolidation of ADO in Argentina and AV in Paraguay 3 . MSD&A expenses, EBIT, EBITDA, Non-operating results, Income taxes, and Net income are presented on a consolidated basis. In 2Q25, CCU delivered higher financial results and increased profitability versus last year, despite a volatile and challenging business environment. Consolidated EBITDA nearly doubled versus last year, mainly driven by our main Operating segment, Chile, which expanded EBITDA 59.1% and, to a lesser extent, by the 8.3% growth in the Wine Operating segment. On the other hand, we keep facing a challenging scenario in Argentina, impacting the International Business Operating segment's results. Higher consolidated EBITDA and improved EBITDA margin were driven by volume growth, revenue management efforts and efficiencies, more than offsetting costs and expenses pressures from inflation. In line with the higher operational result, Net income posted a lower loss versus last year. Our first half results show that we are taking the right actions to keep delivering higher financial results and profitability in a context of soft volume trends for the beverage industry in the region. For the second half of the year we will keep executing our 2025-2027 Strategic Plan and its three pillars, Profitability, Growth and Sustainability, with a special focus on Profitability, supported by both, revenue management efforts backed by our strong and diversified portfolio of brands, and efficiencies across all our operating segments. Regarding our main consolidated figures, in 2Q25 organic Net sales were up 4.8%, explained by 4.7% higher organic volumes while organic average prices were flat in CLP. Gross profit grew 6.7% organically, and organic Gross margin expanded 73 bps. In addition, consolidated MSD&A expenses in CLP grew 5.8%, mainly due to the consolidation of ADO, although as a percentage of Net sales improved 197 bps. In all, EBITDA reached CLP 19,817 million, expanding 97.1%, and EBITDA margin expanded 150 bps. In terms of our segments, in the Chile Operating segment top line expanded 9.4%, as a result of a 6.0% increase in average prices and 3.2% higher volumes, where all categories posted positive growth, with a better seasonally adjusted volume pace than previous quarters. Increased average prices were explained mainly by revenue management efforts, more than offsetting negative mix effects, and were key to expand Gross profit and Gross margin by 12.5% and 115 bps, respectively, in a context of cost pressures related to an unfavorable packaging mix and higher manufacturing costs mainly associated with our PET recycling plant "CirCCUlar". MSD&A expenses grew below inflation, expanding 2.1%, and as a percentage of Net sales, improved 265 bps, due to efficiencies. Altogether, EBITDA reached CLP 42,305 million, a 59.1% increase, and EBITDA margin expanded 339 bps. In the International Business Operating segment , organic volumes posted a 9.8% expansion, although Net sales recorded an 11.4% contraction, driven by 19.3% lower organic average prices in CLP. The decline in organic average prices was mainly due to the 30.5% 5 devaluation of the ARS against the USD, and also due to a challenging pricing scenario in Argentina. The volume expansion was mainly explained by a low comparison base in 2Q24 in Argentina, while volumes, seasonally adjusted, continued in a recovery trend for the fourth consecutive quarter. Organic Gross profit decreased 11.6%, and organic Gross margin was flat. MSD&A expenses were up 10.5%, mainly due to the consolidation of ADO, and higher marketing expenses. As a percentage of Net sales, MSD&A expenses decreased 301 bps. In all, in spite of volume growth, given the effects mentioned above, EBITDA was similar to last year, reaching a loss of CLP 26,892 million, versus a loss of CLP 24,373 million in 2Q24. The Wine Operating segment posted a top line expansion of 6.0%, mainly driven by a 4.2% rise in volumes and 1.7% higher average prices. Larger volumes were led by a 17.4% growth in exports, partially offset by a 4.1% decrease in the Chilean domestic market, while the industry posted a larger decline. The higher average prices were mostly explained by a weaker CLP, and its favorable impact on export revenues and revenue management initiatives in domestic markets, compensated by negative mix effects in the portfolio. Gross profit was flat, and Gross margin deteriorated by 222 bps due to cost pressures from a higher cost of wine, due to a lower harvest, and higher USD-linked packaging costs. MSD&A expenses dropped 3.7%, due to efficiencies, and as a percentage of Net sales improved 274 bps. Altogether, EBITDA reached CLP 11,285 million, an 8.3% increase, and EBITDA margin was up 32 bps. Regarding our main JVs and associated businesses, in Colombia , we delivered low-single digit volume growth in a soft industry context. We continue working in strengthening our brand portfolio and our sales execution to deliver sustainable growth in volumes and results. In summary, in 2Q25, we almost doubled consolidated EBITDA through a robust expansion in our main Operating segment, Chile, and a high-single digit EBITDA expansion in the Wine Operating segment, while we still face a challenging scenario in Argentina. Revenue management and efficiencies were key to achieve this. Moreover, we delivered volume growth in all Operating segments and core categories, in a context of soft industries. To conclude, in a symbolic year for CCU, as we are celebrating 175 years of history, we will continue implementing our 2025-2027 Strategic Plan, supported in our multi-category strategy and our vast business experience to ensure sustainable and profitable growth for our Company.

CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS - SECOND QUARTER (Exhibit 1 & 3) Comments below related to the consolidated and the International Business Operating segment consider organic figures for volumes, Net sales, COGS and Gross profit; this is, excluding the consolidation of ADO in Argentina and AV in Paraguay 3 . MSD&A expenses, EBIT, EBITDA, Non-operating results, Income taxes, and Net income are presented on a consolidated basis. Net sales were up 4.8% organically, almost fully driven by 4.7% higher consolidated organic volumes as organic average prices in CLP grew 0.1%. Volume growth breakdowns by Operating segments as follows: (i) a 3.2% expansion in the Chile Operating segment, where all categories posted volume growth, with a better seasonally adjusted volume pace compared to previous quarters; (ii) a 9.8% organic increase in the International Business Operating segment, almost fully explained by a low comparison base in Argentina, while volumes, seasonally adjusted, continued in a recovery trend for the fourth consecutive quarter, and (iii) a 4.2% expansion in the Wine Operating segment, explained by a 17.4% growth in exports, partially compensated by a 4.1% decline in the Chilean domestic market, while the industry posted a larger decline. Organic average prices in CLP were as follow: (i) a 6.0% rise in the Chile Operating segment, related to revenue management initiatives, partially compensated by negative mix effects, and (ii) a 1.7% increase in the Wine Operating segment, mostly explained by a weaker CLP, and its favorable impact on export revenues, and revenue management initiatives in domestic markets, compensated by negative mix effects in the portfolio. These effects were almost fully compensated by a 19.3% organic contraction in the International Business Operating segment, mostly from a negative translation effect in Argentina, and a challenging pricing scenario in this country. Cost of sales was up 3.5% organically, explained by higher volumes, as organic Cost of sales per hectoliter in CLP contracted 1.1%. The latter was due to a 19.3% organic decrease in CLP in the International Business Operating segment, mostly caused by a translation effect, as in local currency COGS per hectoliters grew mainly due to a negative impact from the devaluation of the ARS against the USD in our cost base in Argentina. This was partially compensated by: (i) a 4.0% increase in the Chile Operating segment, related to an unfavorable packaging mix and higher manufacturing costs mainly associated with our PET recycling plant "CirCCUlar", partially compensated by lower prices in raw materials such as sugar, fruit pulp, and malt, and (ii) a 5.5% increase in the Wine Operating segment, from a higher cost of wine and higher USD-linked packaging costs. Gross profit reached CLP 224,223 million organic, a 6.7% increase, and organic Gross margin was higher by 73 bps. MSD&A expenses were up 5.8% in CLP, nearly fully explained by the consolidation of ADO, as, without such consolidation, MSD&A expenses expanded by 0.5%. As a percentage of Net sales improved 197 bps, offsetting inflationary pressures with efficiencies. By Operating segment, MSD&A expenses were as follows: (i) a 2.1% expansion in the Chile Operating segment, this is below inflation, improving 265 bps as a percentage of Net sales, (ii) a 10.5% increase in the International Business Operating segment, more than explained by the consolidation of ADO, as, without such consolidation, MSD&A expenses decreased by 5.9%. As a percentage of Net sales, MSD&A expenses decreased 301 bps, and (iii) a 3.7% reduction in the Wine Operating segment, resulting in a contraction of 274 bps measured as percentage of Net sales, due to efficiencies. EBIT reached a loss of CLP 17,340 million in 2Q25, versus a loss of CLP 26,225 million in 2Q24, the latter excluding the non-recurring gain from a sale of a portion of land in Chile (EBIT reached a gain of CLP 2,444 million in 2Q24 when this non-recurring gain is included). EBITDA reached CLP 19,817 million, a 97.1% increase versus last year, the latter excluding the non-recurring gain from a sale of a portion of land in Chile in 2Q24 (EBITDA contracted 48.8% versus 2Q24 when this non-recurring gain is included). This expansion was mostly driven by a 59.1% jump in the Chile Operating segment and, to a lesser extent, by an 8.3% rise in the Wine Operating segment. On the other hand, these higher results were partially compensated by the International Business Operating segment which decreased its EBITDA by 10.3%, explained by the effects mentioned above. Non-operating result totalized a loss of CLP 30,261 million in 2Q25 versus a loss of CLP 23,514 million last year. This was explained by: (i) a larger loss in Other gains/(losses) by CLP 4,209 million, mostly caused by derivative contracts, specifically, forward contracts entered into to mitigate the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on our foreign currency balance positions, which is partially offset in Foreign currency exchange differences, (ii) a higher loss in Equity and income of JVs and associated by CLP 3,487 million, generated by a lower financial result in Colombia, mostly due to committed payments related to claims regarding the Consumption tax (ICO, Impuesto al consumo) basis determination criteria, and (iii) a higher loss by CLP 3,079 million in Results as per adjustment units, explained by Argentina. These effects were partially compensated by: (i) a higher gain in Foreign currency exchange differences by CLP 1,915 million, and (ii) a lower loss in Net financial expenses by CLP 2,114 million, due to a lower debt. Income taxes reached a positive result of CLP 36,388 million versus a positive result of CLP 27,900 million last year. The lower taxes were mainly explained by a lower taxable income and deferred tax income in Argentina, due to the application of inflation adjustments on fixed assets for tax purposes. ( See Note 25 Income taxes to the financial statements as of June 30, 2025). Net income reached a loss of CLP 11,218 million, versus a loss of CLP 15,888 million last year, the latter excluding the non-recurring gain from a sale of a portion of land in Chile (Net income reached a gain of CLP 5,040 million in 2Q24 when this gain is included). CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS - FIRST HALF (Exhibit 2 & 4) Comments below related to the consolidated and the International Business Operating segment consider organic figures for volumes, Net sales, COGS and Gross profit; this is, excluding the consolidation of ADO in Argentina and AV in Paraguay 3 . MSD&A expenses, EBIT, EBITDA, Non-operating results, Income taxes, and Net income are presented on a consolidated basis. Net sales were up 3.7% organically, mostly driven by 2.9% higher organic average prices in CLP while volumes grew 0.8% organically. The breakdown of organic average prices in CLP was as follow: (i) a 5.4% rise in the Chile Operating segment, related to revenue management initiatives, partially compensated by negative mix effects, and (ii) a 3.7% increase in the Wine Operating segment, mostly explained by a weaker CLP, and its favorable impact on export revenues, and revenue management initiatives in domestic markets, partially compensated by negative mix effects in the portfolio. These positive effects were in part compensated by a 3.1% contraction in the International Business Operating segment, mostly from a negative translation effect in Argentina, from the devaluation of the ARS against the USD, and a challenging pricing scenario in this country. Volume growth was as follows: (i) a 0.2% expansion in the Chile Operating segment, in a context of soft industries, although improving the seasonally adjusted volume pace through the year, (ii) a 2.9% organic increase in the International Business Operating segment, almost fully explained by a low comparison base in Argentina, while volumes seasonally adjusted, have continued in a recovery trend during the year, and (iii) a 0.5% expansion in the Wine Operating segment, explained by a 8.6% growth in exports, partially compensated by a 6.3% decline in the Chilean domestic market, in line with the industry. Cost of sales was up 3.9% organically, mostly explained by a 3.1% higher Cost of sales per hectoliter in CLP. The latter was due to: (i) a 6.6% increase in the Chile Operating segment, related to an unfavorable packaging mix and higher manufacturing costs, mainly related with our PET recycling plant "CirCCUlar", partially compensated by lower prices in raw materials such as sugar, fruit pulp, and malt, and (ii) a 6.9% increase in the Wine Operating segment, mainly from a higher cost of wine and higher USD-linked packaging costs. These effects were partially offset by a 6.1% organic decrease in the International Business Operating segment, mostly caused by a translation effect, as in local currency COGS per hectoliters grew due to inflationary pressures in Argentina. Gross profit reached CLP 581,705 million organic, a 3.5% increase, and organic Gross margin was lower by 10 bps. MSD&A expenses were up 8.5% in CLP, nearly fully explained by the consolidation of ADO, as, without such consolidation, MSD&A expenses expanded by 2.0%.

As a percentage of Net sales, MSD&A expenses decreased 129 bps, and (iii) a 1.8% reduction in the Wine Operating segment, resulting in a contraction of 180 bps measured as percentage of Net sales, due to efficiencies. EBIT reached CLP 74,544 million in 2Q25, expanding 18.9% versus last year, the latter excluding the non-recurring gain from a sale of a portion of land in Chile in 2Q24 (EBIT contracted 18.4% when this non-recurring gain is included). EBITDA reached CLP 151,371 million, a 12.8% increase versus last year, the latter excluding the non-recurring gain from a sale of a portion of land in Chile in 2Q24 (EBITDA contracted 7.1% when this non-recurring gain is included). This expansion was driven by all Operating segments; a 10.9% jump in the Chile Operating segment, a 369.0% expansion in the International Business Operating segment, and a 4.6% rise in the Wine Operating segment. Non-operating result totalized a loss of CLP 56,942 million versus a negative result of CLP 42,779 million last year. The higher loss was explained by: (i) a larger loss in Other gains/(losses) by CLP 12,718 million, mostly caused by derivative contracts, specifically, forward contracts entered into to mitigate the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on our foreign currency balance positions, which is partially offset in Foreign currency exchange differences, (ii) a higher loss by CLP 7,217 million in Results as per adjustment units, mainly in Argentina (iii) a higher loss in Net financial expenses by CLP 2,478 million, mostly due to both lower invested Cash and cash equivalents and lower interest rates, impacting our Financial income, partially offset by a lower debt, (iii) a higher loss in Equity and income of JVs and associated by CLP 1,687 million, generated by a lower financial result in Colombia, mostly due to committed payments related to claims regarding the Consumption tax (ICO, Impuesto al consumo) basis determination criteria. These effects were partially compensated by a better result in Foreign currency exchange differences by CLP 9,939 million. Income taxes reached a positive result of CLP 32,673 million versus a positive result of CLP 13,280 million last year. The lower taxes were mainly explained by a lower taxable income and deferred tax income in Argentina, due to the application of inflation adjustments on fixed assets for tax purposes. ( See Note 25 Income taxes to the financial statements as of June 30, 2025). Net income reached a gain of CLP 46,560 million, expanding 28.2% versus last year, the latter excluding the non-recurring gain from a sale of a portion of land in Chile in 2Q24 (Net income contracted 18.7% when this non-recurring gain is included). HIGHLIGHTS BY OPERATING SEGMENTS - SECOND QUARTER CHILE OPERATING SEGMENT In terms of our segments, in the Chile Operating segment top line expanded 9.4%, as a result of a 6.0% increase in average prices and 3.2% higher volumes, where all categories posted positive growth, with a better volume pace than previous quarters, seasonally adjusted. Increased average prices were explained mainly by revenue management efforts, more than offsetting negative mix effects, and were key to expand Gross profit and Gross margin by 12.5% and 115 bps, respectively, in a context of cost pressures related to an unfavorable packaging mix and higher manufacturing costs mainly associated with our PET recycling plant "CirCCUlar". MSD&A expenses grew below inflation, expanding 2.1%, and as a percentage of Net sales, improved 265 bps, due to efficiencies. Altogether, EBITDA reached CLP 42,305 million, a 59.1% increase, and EBITDA margin expanded 339 bps. We had great news for our corporate brand this quarter. CCU achieved sixth place in the 16th edition of the "Marcas Ciudadanas" study, a leading research conducted by Cadem, climbing 14 positions from the previous review. This study recognizes companies and well-known brands for their positive presence in public opinion, their relevance and contribution to society, and their importance to consumers and clients. The study surveyed 15,000 people nationwide, analyzing 325 brands. Our "Juntos por un Mejor Vivir" Sustainability Strategy keeps progressing. Within our Water agenda and following the successful implementation of the proposals from the first fund in 2024, CCU, along with its subsidiary Compañía Pisquera de Chile (CPCh), announced its second "water fund" project. This fund aims to develop water efficiency projects on pisco grape farms belonging to small-scale farmers who are members of the Control Pisquero Cooperative. The climate action agenda also provided good news aligned with our Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction goal in our logistics. We added three electric trucks to our fleet in the up-north Antofagasta Region, reaching a fleet of around 50 electric trucks across Chile. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS OPERATING SEGMENT In the International Business Operating segment , organic volumes posted a 9.8% expansion, although Net sales recorded an 11.4% contraction, driven by 19.3% lower organic average prices in CLP. The decline in organic average prices was mainly due to the 30.5% 5 devaluation of the ARS against the USD, and also due to a challenging pricing scenario in Argentina. The volume expansion was mainly explained by a low comparison base in 2Q24 in Argentina, while volumes, seasonally adjusted, continued in a recovery trend for the fourth consecutive quarter. Organic Gross profit decreased 11.6%, and organic Gross margin was flat. MSD&A expenses were up 10.5%, mainly due to the consolidation of ADO, and higher marketing expenses. As a percentage of Net sales, MSD&A expenses decreased 301 bps. In all, in spite of volume growth, given the effects mentioned above, EBITDA was similar to last year, reaching a loss of CLP 26,892 million, versus a loss of CLP 24,373 million in 2Q24. WINE OPERATING SEGMENT The Wine Operating segment posted a top line expansion of 6.0%, mainly driven by a 4.2% rise in volumes and 1.7% higher average prices. Larger volumes were led by a 17.4% growth in exports, partially offset by a 4.1% decrease in the Chilean domestic market, while the industry posted a larger decline. The higher average prices were mostly explained by a weaker CLP, and its favorable impact on export revenues and revenue management initiatives in domestic markets, compensated by negative mix effects in the portfolio. Gross profit was flat, and Gross margin deteriorated by 222 bps due to cost pressures from a higher cost of wine, due to a lower harvest, and higher USD-linked packaging costs. MSD&A expenses dropped 3.7%, due to efficiencies, and as a percentage of Net sales improved 274 bps. Altogether, EBITDA reached CLP 11,285 million, an 8.3% increase, and EBITDA margin was up 32 bps. In terms of brands, in June, we launched new varieties of "Gato Selección Dulce": Chocolate and Navegado, both showing excellent preliminary performance. These two varieties aim to strengthen VSPT brand's portfolio and value proposition to consumers.
