Change in Segments:
In the third quarter of 2026, The Kraft Heinz Company (the “Company”) made changes to its internal reporting and reportable segments. The Company combined its West and East Emerging Markets (“WEEM”) and Asia Emerging Markets (“AEM”) segments to form the Emerging Markets operating segment in order to increase efficiencies and drive sustainable growth across the Company's global business. In conjunction with the creation of Emerging Markets, the Company moved certain European countries within the WEEM operating segment into the Europe and Pacific Developed Markets operating segment.
Subsequently, the Company manages its operating results through three operating segments, all of which are reportable segments: North America, Europe and Pacific Developed Markets, and Emerging Markets. Prior to the reorganization of its segments in the third quarter of 2026, the Company managed and reported its operating results through two reportable segments defined by geographic region: North America and Europe and Pacific Developed Markets (“EPDM” or International Developed Markets). The Company's previous two remaining operating segments, consisting of WEEM and AEM, were combined and disclosed as Emerging Markets.
The Company is providing supplemental historical segment financial information that conforms to the new reportable segment structure in Exhibit 99.1 hereto. This supplemental financial information is being provided to aid in comparability and has no impact on previously reported financial statements for any period.
