To Bohemia, the first brewery in Brazil. Geographically diversified with a balanced exposure to developed and developing markets, we leverage the collective strengths of approximately 167 000 employees based in nearly 50 countries worldwide. For 2022, AB InBev's reported revenue was 57.8 billion US dollar (excluding joint ventures and associates). The consolidated financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 December 2022 comprise the company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as "AB InBev" or the "company") and the company's interest in associates, joint ventures and operations. The consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on 1 March 2023. 2. Statement of compliance The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) and in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union (collectively "IFRS"). AB InBev did not early apply any new IFRS requirements that were not yet effective in 2022 and did not apply any European carve-outs from IFRS. 3. Summary of significant accounting policies The accounting policies applied are consistent to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements by the company and its subsidiary. (A) BASIS OF PREPARATION AND MEASUREMENT Depending on the applicable IFRS requirements, the measurement basis used in preparing the financial statements is cost, net realizable value, fair value or recoverable amount. Whenever IFRS provides an option between cost and another measurement basis (e.g., systematic re-measurement), the cost approach is applied. (B) FUNCTIONAL AND PRESENTATION CURRENCY Unless otherwise specified, all financial information included in these financial statements has been stated in US dollar and has been rounded to the nearest million. As from 2009, following the combination with Anheuser-Bush, the company changed the presentation currency of the consolidated financial statements from the euro to the US dollar to provide greater alignment of the presentation currency with AB InBev's most significant operating currency and underlying financial performance. The functional currency of the parent company is the euro. (C) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION Subsidiaries are those entities controlled by AB InBev. AB InBev controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. In assessing control, potential voting rights are taken into account. Control is presumed to exist where AB InBev owns, directly or indirectly, more than one half of the voting rights (which does not always equate to economic ownership), unless it can be demonstrated that such ownership does not constitute control. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. Associates are undertakings in which AB InBev has significant influence over the financial and operating policies, but which it does not control. This is generally evidenced by ownership of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. A joint venture is an arrangement in which AB InBev has joint control, whereby AB InBev has rights to the net assets of the arrangement, 33 33
