NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

Financial Statement Preparation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements as of June 29, 2025, and for the quarters and three quarters ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024, have been prepared by Starbucks Corporation under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, the financial information for the quarters and three quarters ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024 reflects all adjustments and accruals, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“10-Q”), Starbucks Corporation (together with its subsidiaries) is referred to as “Starbucks,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our.”

Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our chief executive officer, who is our Chief Operating Decision Maker, manages the segments, evaluates financial results, and makes key operating decisions.

The financial information as of September 29, 2024 is derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024 (“fiscal 2024”) included in Item 8 in the fiscal 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 20, 2024 (“10-K”). The information included in this 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the footnotes and management’s discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial statements in the 10-K.

The results of operations for the quarter and three quarters ended June 29, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved for the entire fiscal year ending September 28, 2025 (“fiscal 2025”).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance expanding segment disclosure requirements. The amendments require enhanced disclosure for certain segment items and disclosure on how management uses reported measures to assess segment performance. The amendments do not change how segments are determined, aggregated, or how thresholds are applied to determine reportable segments. We will adopt the guidance for the fiscal year ending September 28, 2025. We are currently evaluating the impact of the amendments and expect to include updated segment expense disclosures in our fiscal year 2025 Form 10-K.

In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance expanding disclosure requirements related to income taxes. The amendments require enhanced jurisdictional disclosures for the income tax rate reconciliation and related to cash income taxes paid. Additionally, certain disclosures related to unrecognized tax benefits and indefinite reinvestment assertions were removed. The amendments are effective for our fiscal year ending September 27, 2026. While we are still evaluating the specific impacts and timing of adoption, we anticipate this guidance will have a significant impact on our annual income tax disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance expanding disclosure requirements related to certain income statement expenses. The amendments require tabular disclosure of certain operating expenses disaggregated into categories, such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. The amendments are effective for our fiscal year ending October 1, 2028, and may be applied retrospectively. While we are still evaluating the specific impacts and adoption method, we anticipate this guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statement disclosures.

Note 2: Acquisitions, Divestitures, and Strategic Alliance

On October 14, 2024, we acquired a 100% ownership interest in 23.5 Degrees Topco Limited, a U.K. licensed business partner, to expand our portfolio of company-operated stores and enhance the coffeehouse experience for customers. The acquisition converted 113 licensed stores to company-operated stores within our International operating segment.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed are included in our International operating segment. Assets acquired primarily include operating lease right-of-use assets, intangible assets, goodwill, and property, plant and equipment. The intangible assets acquired as part of this transaction include reacquired licensee agreement rights, which will be amortized over the estimated useful life. In addition, we assumed various liabilities, primarily consisting of operating lease liabilities. The transaction is not material to our consolidated financial statements.

Note 3: Derivative Financial Instruments

Interest Rates

From time to time, we enter into designated cash flow hedges to manage the variability in cash flows due to changes in benchmark interest rates. We enter into interest rate swap agreements, including forward-starting interest rate swaps and treasury locks, settled in cash based upon the difference between an agreed-upon benchmark rate and the prevailing benchmark rate at settlement. These agreements are generally settled around the time of the pricing of the related debt. Each derivative agreement’s gain or loss is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and is subsequently reclassified to interest expense over the life of the related debt.

To hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt, we enter into interest rate swap agreements, which are designated as fair value hedges. The changes in fair values of these derivative instruments and the offsetting changes in fair values of the underlying hedged debt due to changes in the relevant benchmark interest rates are recorded in interest expense. Refer to Note 8, Debt, for additional information on our long-term debt.

Foreign Currency

To reduce cash flow volatility from foreign currency fluctuations, we enter into forward and swap contracts to hedge portions of cash flows of anticipated royalty revenue, inventory purchases, and intercompany borrowing and lending activities. The resulting gains and losses from these derivatives are recorded in AOCI and subsequently reclassified to revenue, product and distribution costs, or interest income and other, net, respectively, when the hedged exposures affect net earnings.

From time to time, we may enter into financial instruments, including, but not limited to, forward and swap contracts or foreign currency-denominated debt, to hedge the currency exposure of our net investments in certain international operations. The resulting gains and losses from these derivatives are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified to net earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated. Gains and losses from these derivatives, representing hedged components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, are amortized over the life of the hedging instrument using a systematic and rational method and recognized in interest expense.

Foreign currency forward and swap contracts not designated as hedging instruments are used to mitigate the foreign exchange risk of certain other balance sheet items. Gains and losses from these derivatives are largely offset by the financial impact of translating foreign currency-denominated payables and receivables, and these gains and losses are recorded in interest income and other, net.

Commodities

Depending on market conditions, we may enter into coffee forward contracts, futures contracts, and collars to hedge anticipated cash flows under our price-to-be-fixed green coffee contracts, which are described further in Note 5, Inventories, or our longer-dated forecasted coffee demand where underlying fixed price and price-to-be-fixed contracts are not yet available. The resulting gains and losses are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified to product and distribution costs when the hedged exposure affects net earnings.

Depending on market conditions, we may also enter into dairy forward contracts and futures contracts to hedge a portion of anticipated cash flows under our dairy purchase contracts and our forecasted dairy demand. The resulting gains or losses are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified to product and distribution costs when the hedged exposure affects net earnings.

Cash flow hedges related to anticipated transactions are designated and documented at the inception of each hedge. Cash flows from hedging transactions are classified in the same categories as the cash flows from the respective hedged items. For de-designated cash flow hedges in which the underlying transactions are no longer probable of occurring or where price variability in the underlying cash flow ceases to exist, the related accumulated derivative gains or losses are recognized in interest income and other, net on our consolidated statements of earnings. These derivatives may be accounted for prospectively as non-designated derivatives until maturity, re-designated to new hedging relationships, or terminated early. We continue to believe transactions related to our designated cash flow hedges are probable to occur.

To mitigate the price uncertainty of a portion of our future purchases, including diesel fuel and other commodities, we enter into swap contracts, futures, and collars that are not designated as hedging instruments. The resulting gains and losses are recorded in interest income and other, net to help offset price fluctuations on our beverage, food, packaging, and transportation costs, which are included in product and distribution costs on our consolidated statements of earnings.

There were no material transfers between levels, and there was no significant activity within Level 3 instruments during the periods presented. The fair values of any financial instruments presented above exclude the impact of netting assets and liabilities when a legally enforceable master netting agreement exists.

Gross unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities, structured deposits, and marketable equity securities were not material as of June 29, 2025 and September 29, 2024.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on the consolidated financial statements on a nonrecurring basis include items such as property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, equity and other investments, and other assets. These assets are measured at fair value if determined to be impaired.

Table of Contents

The estimated fair value of our long-term debt based on the quoted market price (Level 2) is included at Note 8, Debt. There were no material fair value adjustments during the three quarters ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024.

(1)“Other merchandise held for sale” includes, among other items, food, serveware, and tea. Inventory levels vary due to seasonality, commodity market supply, and price fluctuations.

As of June 29, 2025, we had committed to purchasing green coffee totaling $250 million under fixed-price contracts and an estimated $626 million under price-to-be-fixed contracts. A portion of our price-to-be-fixed contracts are effectively fixed through the use of futures. See Note 3, Derivative Financial Instruments, for further discussion. Price-to-be-fixed contracts are purchase commitments whereby the quality, quantity, delivery period, and other negotiated terms are agreed upon, but the date, and therefore the price, at which the base “C” coffee commodity price component will be fixed has not yet been established. For most contracts, either Starbucks or the seller has the option to “fix” the base “C” coffee commodity price prior to the delivery date. For other contracts, Starbucks and the seller may agree upon pricing parameters determined by the base “C” coffee commodity price. Until prices are fixed, we estimate the total cost of these purchase commitments. We believe, based on established relationships with our suppliers and continuous monitoring, the risk of non-delivery on these purchase commitments is remote.

Note 8: Debt

Revolving Credit Facility

During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we replaced our $3.0 billion unsecured five-year revolving credit facility (the “2021 credit facility”) with a new $3.0 billion unsecured five-year revolving credit facility (the “2025 credit facility”).

Our 2025 credit facility, of which $150.0 million may be used for issuances of letters of credit, is currently set to mature on June 13, 2030. The 2025 credit facility is available for working capital, capital expenditures, and other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions and share repurchases. We have the option, subject to negotiation and agreement with the related banks, to increase the maximum commitment amount by an additional $1.0 billion.

Borrowings under the 2025 credit facility will bear interest at a fluctuating rate based on the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Term SOFR”), and, for U.S. dollar-denominated loans under certain circumstances, a Base Rate (as defined in the 2025 credit facility), in each case plus an applicable rate. The applicable rate is based on the Company’s long-term credit ratings assigned by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s rating agencies. The 2025 credit facility contains alternative interest rate provisions specifying rate calculations to be used at such time Term SOFR ceases to be available as a benchmark due to reference rate reform. The “Base Rate” of interest is the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (ii) Bank of America’s prime rate, (iii) Term SOFR plus 1.00%, and (iv) 1.00%. Upon the occurrence of any event of default under the 2025 credit facility, interest on the outstanding amount of the indebtedness under the 2025 credit facility will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 2% in excess of the interest then borne by such borrowings.

The 2025 credit facility contains provisions requiring us to maintain compliance with certain covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, which measures our ability to cover financing expenses. As of June 29, 2025, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants. No amounts were outstanding under our 2025 credit facility as of June 29, 2025, or our 2021 credit facility as of September 29, 2024.

Short-term Debt

Under our commercial paper program, we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $3.0 billion, with individual maturities that may vary but not exceed 397 days from the date of issue. Amounts outstanding under the commercial paper program are required to be backstopped by available commitments under our 2025 credit facility. The proceeds from borrowings under our commercial paper program may be used for working capital needs, capital expenditures, and other corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, business expansion, payment of cash dividends on our common stock, and share repurchases. We had no borrowings outstanding under our commercial paper program as of June 29, 2025 and September 29, 2024. Our total available contractual borrowing capacity for general corporate purposes was $3.0 billion as of the end of our third quarter of fiscal 2025.

Additionally, we hold the following Japanese yen-denominated credit facilities that are available for working capital needs and capital expenditures within our Japanese market:

•A ¥5.0 billion, or $34.6 million, credit facility is currently set to mature on December 30, 2025. Borrowings under this credit facility are subject to terms defined within the facility and will bear interest at a variable rate based on Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate (“TIBOR”) plus an applicable margin of 0.400%.

•A ¥10.0 billion, or $69.2 million, credit facility is currently set to mature on March 27, 2026. Borrowings under this credit facility are subject to terms defined within the facility and will bear interest at a variable rate based on TIBOR plus an applicable margin of 0.300%.

As of June 29, 2025 and September 29, 2024, we had no borrowings outstanding under these credit facilities.

Note 14: Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

Starbucks is involved in various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including litigation matters associated with labor union organizing efforts and certain employment litigation cases that have been certified as class or collective actions, but is not currently a party to any legal proceeding that management believes could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. While we are closely monitoring the operational and financial impacts of labor union organizing efforts on our business, as of the date of this filing, we believe the risk of a material contingent loss associated with these litigation matters is remote. Refer to the Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A of our most recently filed 10-K for further discussion of potential risks to our brand and related impacts on our financial results.

Note 16: Restructuring

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, we announced our “Back to Starbucks” strategy, which was implemented with the goal to bring customers back to our stores and return to growth. As part of this strategy, during the second quarter of fiscal 2025, we further decided and announced our plan to restructure our support organization in an effort to operate more efficiently, increase accountability, reduce complexity, and drive better integration, which resulted in a reduction in our support partner workforce. During the quarter and three quarters ended June 29, 2025, we recognized pre-tax restructuring charges of $20.8 million and $137.0 million, respectively, primarily associated with partner severance costs. These costs were recorded to restructuring on our consolidated statement of earnings. As of June 29, 2025, approximately $29 million of severance costs remained in accrued payroll and benefits on our consolidated balance sheet. We expect additional restructuring costs in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, which may, in the aggregate, be material. These are primarily related to the evaluation of our store portfolio and restructuring our support organization, including the recently announced voluntary resignation program.

Introduction and Overview

Starbucks is the premier roaster, marketer, and retailer of specialty coffee globally, with a presence in 88 markets worldwide. As of June 29, 2025, Starbucks had more than 41,000 company-operated and licensed stores, an increase of 4% from the prior year. Additionally, we sell a variety of consumer-packaged goods, primarily through the Global Coffee Alliance established with Nestlé and other partnerships and joint ventures.

We have three reportable operating segments: 1) North America, which is inclusive of the U.S. and Canada; 2) International, which is inclusive of China, Japan, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East, Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean; and 3) Channel Development. Unallocated corporate expenses are reported within Corporate and Other.

We believe our financial results and long-term growth model will continue to be driven by new store openings, comparable store sales, and operating margin management, underpinned by disciplined capital allocation. We believe these key operating metrics are useful to investors because management uses these metrics to assess the growth of our business and the effectiveness of our marketing and operational strategies. Throughout this MD&A, we commonly discuss the following key operating metrics:

•New store openings and store count

•Comparable store sales

•Operating margin

Comparable store sales represents the percentage change in sales in one period from the same prior year period for company-operated stores open for 13 months or longer and excludes the impact of foreign currency translation. We analyze comparable store sales on a constant currency basis as this helps identify underlying business trends, without distortion from the effects of currency movements. Stores that are temporarily closed or operating at reduced hours remain in comparable store sales while stores identified for permanent closure have been removed.

Our fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to September 30. Fiscal 2025 and 2024 include 52 weeks. All references to store counts, including data for new store openings, are reported net of store closures, unless otherwise noted.

Starbucks results for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 showed continued progress on key “Back to Starbucks” initiatives, specifically investments in coffeehouse partners, including the Leadership Experience 2025, a conference designed to empower and motivate our retail leaders to accelerate our “Back to Starbucks” strategy, as we work to rebuild a stronger Starbucks. During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, consolidated net revenues increased 4% to $9.5 billion compared to $9.1 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily driven by incremental revenues from net new company-operated store openings over the past 12 months, partially offset by a decrease in global comparable store sales. During the quarter ended June 29, 2025, our global comparable store sales declined 2%, primarily driven by a 2% decline in the U.S. market. Specific to the U.S. market, the decrease in comparable store sales was driven by a 4% decrease in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 2% increase in average ticket, primarily due to fewer discounts in the current year. Consolidated operating margin contracted 680 basis points from the prior year to 9.9%, primarily driven by deleverage, investments in support of “Back to Starbucks,” including additional labor and the Leadership Experience 2025, and inflation, primarily driven by elevated coffee pricing.

For the balance of this fiscal year, we expect that the macroeconomic challenges we have been experiencing, including impacts from new tariffs and volatile coffee prices, will continue; however we are encouraged by the results we have seen from our “Back to Starbucks” initiatives and early results from our pilots. For example, as a result of compelling early insights, we have decided to accelerate the rollout of the Green Apron Service model, a new foundational operating model that establishes repeatable, consistent, and scalable standards, across U.S. company-operated stores in the next few months. We will continue to prioritize disciplined capital investments in our stores, and we are conducting a comprehensive evaluation of our store portfolio, which we expect will be complete by the end of the fiscal year and result in additional material restructuring charges. Additionally, we will continue our efforts to identify a strategic partner with a similar vision and values to help us capture future growth opportunities in China. Our focus will continue to be on the long-term, sustainable growth of the company. We believe the actions we are taking now and in the future, specifically through our investments in store partners, uplifting the coffeehouse experience, introducing new food and beverage platforms, and reimagining the Starbucks rewards program, paired with disciplined prioritization, while driving more efficiency, accountability, and agility as a company, will lay the foundation for the future of Starbucks.

For the quarter ended June 29, 2025 compared with the quarter ended June 30, 2024

Total net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $342 million, primarily due to higher revenues from company-operated stores ($297 million) and other revenues ($69 million), partially offset by a decrease in revenues from licensed stores ($23 million).

Company-operated store revenue increased $297 million, primarily driven by incremental revenues from 1,151 net new company-operated stores, or a 6% increase, over the past 12 months ($330 million). Also contributing to the overall increase in company-operated store revenue were favorable foreign currency translation impacts ($45 million) and incremental revenue from the conversion of 113 licensed stores to company-operated stores ($36 million) following the acquisition of 23.5 Degrees Topco Limited, a U.K. licensed business partner, during the first quarter of fiscal 2025. These increases in net revenue were partially offset by a 2% decrease in comparable store sales ($122 million), attributable to a 2% decrease in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 1% increase in average ticket.

Licensed stores revenue decreased $23 million, primarily driven by lower product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees in our North America segment ($37 million) and the impact of the acquisition of 23.5 Degrees Topco Limited ($9 million). These decreases in licensed stores revenue were partially offset by an increase in product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees in our International segment ($28 million).

Other revenues increased $69 million, primarily due to an increase in revenue in the Global Coffee Alliance ($45 million) and increased sales of cocoa butter to third parties ($20 million).

For the three quarters ended June 29, 2025 compared with the three quarters ended June 30, 2024

Total net revenues for the first three quarters of fiscal 2025 increased $513 million, primarily due to higher revenues from company-operated stores ($559 million) and other revenues ($72 million), partially offset by a decrease in revenues from licensed stores ($118 million).

Company-operated store revenue increased $559 million, primarily driven by incremental revenues from 1,151 net new company-operated stores, or a 6% increase, over the past 12 months ($927 million) and incremental revenue from the conversion of 113 licensed stores to company-operated stores ($93 million) following the acquisition of 23.5 Degrees Topco Limited. These increases in net revenue were partially offset by a 2% decrease in comparable store sales ($453 million), attributable to a 4% decrease in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 2% increase in average ticket.

Licensed stores revenue decreased $118 million, primarily driven by lower product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees in our North America segment ($112 million), the impact of the acquisition of 23.5 Degrees Topco Limited ($26 million), and by unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts ($22 million). These decreases were partially offset by an increase in product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees in our International segment ($49 million).

Other revenues increased $72 million, primarily due to increased sales of cocoa butter to third parties ($34 million) and an increase in revenue in the Global Coffee Alliance ($27 million).

Revenues

North America total net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $110 million, or 2%, primarily driven by net new company-operated store growth of 5%, or 513 stores, over the past 12 months ($266 million). This growth was partially offset by a net 2% decrease in comparable store sales ($116 million), driven by a 3% decrease in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 1% increase in average ticket, primarily due to fewer discounts in the current year. Also contributing were lower product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees ($37 million).

Operating Margin

North America operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 decreased 36% to $919 million, compared to $1.4 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Operating margin contracted 770 basis points to 13.3%, primarily driven by deleverage (approximately 250 basis points), investments in support of “Back to Starbucks,” including additional labor (approximately 170 basis points) and the Leadership Experience 2025 (approximately 120 basis points), and inflation (approximately 110 basis points), primarily driven by elevated coffee pricing.

For the quarter ended June 29, 2025 compared with the quarter ended June 30, 2024

Revenues

International total net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $169 million, or 9%, primarily due to net new company-operated store growth of 7%, or 638 stores, over the past 12 months ($63 million), favorable foreign currency translation impacts ($48 million), and higher product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees ($28 million), primarily due to the opening of 446 net new licensed stores over the past 12 months. Also contributing to the increase

Table of Contents

in revenues was the incremental net revenue from the conversion of 113 licensed stores to company-operated stores ($27 million) following the acquisition of 23.5 Degrees Topco Limited, a U.K. licensed business partner, during the first quarter of fiscal 2025. International comparable store sales were flat, driven by a 1% increase in comparable transactions, offset by a 1% decrease in average ticket.

Operating Margin

International operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 decreased 5% to $273 million, compared to $288 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Operating margin contracted 200 basis points to 13.6%, primarily due to increased promotional activity (approximately 160 basis points).

For the three quarters ended June 29, 2025 compared with the three quarters ended June 30, 2024

Revenues

International total net revenues for the first three quarters of fiscal 2025 increased $304 million, or 6%, primarily due to net new company-operated store growth of 7%, or 638 stores, over the past 12 months ($205 million), and the incremental net revenue from the conversion of 113 licensed stores to company-operated stores ($67 million) following the acquisition of 23.5 Degrees Topco Limited during the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Also contributing to the increase in revenues were higher product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees ($49 million), primarily due to the opening of 446 net new licensed stores over the past 12 months. These increases were partially offset by a 1% decrease in comparable store sales ($33 million), driven by a 2% decrease in average ticket, partially offset by a 1% increase in comparable transactions.

Operating Margin

International operating income for the first three quarters of fiscal 2025 decreased 5% to $727 million, compared to $763 million in the first three quarters of fiscal 2024. Operating margin contracted 140 basis points to 12.6%, primarily due to increased promotional activity (approximately 180 basis points).

For the quarter ended June 29, 2025 compared with the quarter ended June 30, 2024

Corporate and Other operating loss increased 8% to $474 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to $438 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2024, largely due to costs associated with restructuring our support organization, primarily severance costs, in support of our “Back to Starbucks” strategy.

For the three quarters ended June 29, 2025 compared with the three quarters ended June 30, 2024

Corporate and Other operating loss increased 8% to $1.5 billion for the first three quarters of fiscal 2025 compared to $1.4 billion for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024, largely due to costs associated with restructuring our support organization, primarily severance costs, in support of our “Back to Starbucks” strategy.

Financial Condition, Liquidity, and Capital Resources

Cash and Investment Overview

Our cash and investments were $4.7 billion as of June 29, 2025 and $3.8 billion as of September 29, 2024. We actively manage our cash and investments in order to internally fund operating needs, make scheduled interest and principal payments on our borrowings, fund acquisitions, and return cash to shareholders through common stock cash dividend payments and share repurchases. Our investment portfolio primarily includes highly liquid available-for-sale securities, including corporate debt securities and U.S. government treasury securities, as well as principal-protected structured deposits. As of June 29, 2025, approximately $2.1 billion of cash and short-term investments were held in foreign subsidiaries.

Borrowing Capacity

Revolving Credit Facility

2025 credit facility, interest on the outstanding amount of the indebtedness under the 2025 credit facility will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 2% in excess of the interest then borne by such borrowings.

Commercial Paper

Under our commercial paper program, we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount

Table of Contents

outstanding at any time of $3.0 billion, with individual maturities that may vary but not exceed 397 days from the date of issue. Amounts outstanding under the commercial paper program are required to be backstopped by available commitments under our 2025 credit facility. The proceeds from borrowings under our commercial paper program may be used for working capital needs, capital expenditures, and other corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, business expansion, payment of cash dividends on our common stock, and share repurchases. We had no borrowings outstanding under our commercial paper program as of June 29, 2025 and September 29, 2024. Our total available contractual borrowing capacity for general corporate purposes was $3.0 billion as of the end of our third quarter of fiscal 2025.

Credit Facilities in Japan

Additionally, we hold the following Japanese yen-denominated credit facilities that are available for working capital needs and capital expenditures within our Japanese market.

As of June 29, 2025 and September 29, 2024, we had no borrowings outstanding under these credit facilities.

See Note 8, Debt, to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this 10-Q for details of the components of our long-term debt.

Our ability to incur new liens and conduct sale and leaseback transactions on certain material properties is subject to compliance with terms of the indentures under which the long-term notes were issued. As of June 29, 2025, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants.

Use of Cash

We expect to use our available cash and investments, including, but not limited to, additional potential future borrowings under the credit facilities, commercial paper program, and the issuance of debt to support and invest in our core businesses, including investing in new ways to serve our customers and supporting our store partners, repaying maturing debts, returning cash to shareholders through common stock cash dividend payments and discretionary share repurchases, and investing in new business opportunities related to our core and developing businesses. Furthermore, we may use our available cash resources to make proportionate capital contributions to our investees. We may also seek strategic acquisitions to leverage existing capabilities and further build our business. Acquisitions may include increasing our ownership interests in our investees. Any decisions to increase such ownership interests will be driven by valuation and fit with our ownership strategy.

We believe that net future cash flows generated from operations and existing cash and investments both domestically and internationally, combined with our ability to leverage our balance sheet through the issuance of debt, will be sufficient to finance capital requirements for our core businesses as well as shareholder distributions for at least the next 12 months. We are currently not aware of any trends or demands, commitments, events, or uncertainties that will result in, or that are reasonably likely to result in, our liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way that will impact our capital needs during or beyond the next 12 months. We have borrowed funds and continue to believe we have the ability to do so at reasonable interest rates; however, additional borrowings would result in increased interest expense in the future. In this regard, we may incur additional debt, within targeted levels, as part of our plans to fund our capital programs, including cash returns to shareholders through future dividends and discretionary share repurchases, refinancing debt maturities, as well as investing in new business opportunities. If necessary, we may pursue additional sources of financing, including both short-term and long-term borrowings and debt issuances.

We regularly review our cash positions and our determination of partial indefinite reinvestment of foreign earnings. In the event we determine that all or another portion of such foreign earnings are no longer indefinitely reinvested, we may be subject to additional foreign withholding taxes, which could be material. Any foreign earnings that are not indefinitely reinvested may be repatriated at management’s discretion. During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we revised our indefinite reinvestment assertions from prior years' cumulative earnings from certain foreign subsidiaries; as a result, and in anticipation of repatriating earnings from those subsidiaries, we accrued approximately $70 million of discrete tax expense related to foreign withholding taxes during the third quarter of fiscal year 2025. We continue to be indefinitely reinvested in the remainder of our foreign earnings, for which no tax accrual has been recorded.

On July 4, 2025, the President of the United States signed and enacted tax legislation into law through a reconciliation bill titled “An Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14,” commonly referred to as the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act.” This legislation was enacted during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025; therefore, the fiscal 2025 accounting impacts

Table of Contents

from this tax law change will be included in our fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 results. We are evaluating the impacts of this tax law change; however, it is not expected to result in a material impact to our consolidated financial statements.

During the three quarters ended June 29, 2025, we made no common stock share repurchases. As of June 29, 2025, 29.8 million shares remained available for repurchase under current authorizations.

Other than normal operating expenses, cash requirements for the remainder of fiscal 2025 are expected to consist primarily of capital expenditures for investments in our new and existing stores, our supply chain, and corporate facilities. Total capital expenditures for fiscal 2025 are expected to be moderately lower than fiscal 2024.

In the MD&A included in the 10-K, we disclosed that we had $35.6 billion of current and long-term material cash requirements as of September 29, 2024. There have been no material changes to our material cash requirements during the period covered by this 10-Q outside of the normal course of our business.

Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.4 billion for the first three quarters of fiscal 2025, compared to $4.6 billion for the same period in fiscal 2024. The change was primarily due to a decrease in net earnings of $1.1 billion and a net increase of $424 million in inventories, which was primarily driven by green and roasted coffee, largely due to elevated coffee prices, partially offset by a net increase of $229 million in accounts payable, primarily due to payment timing.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $2.1 billion for the first three quarters of fiscal 2025, compared to $1.8 billion for the same period in fiscal 2024. The change was primarily due to a net decrease of $207 million in cash provided by investment activity, primarily structured deposit investments, and the acquisition of 23.5 Degrees Topco Limited.

Net cash used in financing activities for the first three quarters of fiscal 2025 totaled $365 million, compared to $3.1 billion for the same period in fiscal 2024. The change was primarily due to no current year repayments of long-term debt and no current year share repurchases of our common stock compared to the prior year.

Commodity Prices, Availability and General Risk Conditions

Commodity price risk represents our primary market risk, generated by our purchases of green coffee and dairy products, among other items. We purchase, roast, and sell high-quality arabica coffee and related products, and risk arises from the price volatility of green coffee. In addition to coffee, we also purchase significant amounts of dairy products to support the needs of our company-operated stores. The price and availability of these commodities, including recent volatility in green coffee prices, directly impact our results of operations, and we expect commodity prices, particularly coffee, to continue to impact future results of operations. For additional details, see Product Supply in Part 1, Item 1 of the 10-K, as well as Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A of the 10-K.

Seasonality and Quarterly Results

Our business is subject to moderate seasonal fluctuations, of which our fiscal second quarter typically experiences lower revenues and operating income. Additionally, as our stored value cards (“Starbucks Cards”) are issued to, and loaded by, customers during the holiday season, we tend to have higher cash flows from operations during the first quarter of the fiscal year. However, since revenues from Starbucks Cards are recognized upon redemption and not when cash is loaded onto the Starbucks Cards, the impact of seasonal fluctuations on the consolidated statements of earnings is much less pronounced. As a result of moderate seasonal fluctuations, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and the Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and operating results require the Company’s management to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the amounts reported. Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates, to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this 10-Q and in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of the 10-K describe the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates since the 10-K.

Table of Contents

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There has been no material change in the commodity price risk, foreign currency exchange risk, equity security price risk, or interest rate risk discussed in Item 7A of the 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report (June 29, 2025).

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
