TABLE OF CONTENTS _____________________________ Corporate Governance at Best Buy

Examples of enhancements in fiscal 2025 include:

| • | We evolved our leadership development offerings to grow and transform Best Buy for its future. These offerings included unique programs such as an enterprise-wide manager development program, a skill development program for our senior store leaders and several emerging talent programs, including an officer readiness program. |

| • | We expanded our learning campaigns for new products reaching thousands of employees to include a closer partnership with our vendors, more exposure for our employees and in-depth training in artificial intelligence to help customers with the products they use. |

| • | We enhanced our portfolio of risk, compliance and safety microlearning courses to enable employees to continuously develop safe, secure and ethical behaviors to protect the company. |

Employee Benefits Our benefits aim to support employees’ overall well-being: physical, mental, financial and work-life. We believe our ability to deliver on our purpose of enriching our customers’ lives depends on ensuring our employees are living happy and healthy lives — both while at work and outside of work. In fiscal 2025, we introduced the following benefits to our employees:

| • | A well-being sabbatical for employees with five or more years of service that provides them an opportunity to take four weeks off (once every three years) to focus on their well-being; |

| • | Additional paid time off each year in recognition of tenure for full-time employees with 20 or more years of service, plus additional tiers for part-time employees at three and six years; |

| • | Five floating holidays and two fixed company holidays (Thanksgiving and Christmas Day) in place of seven fixed holidays for U.S. employees, to give flexibility for employees to celebrate what is meaningful to them. |

Additionally, in fiscal 2025, we continued our focus on:

| • | Caregiver support, including: |

| ○ | Access to Joshin, a support system for employees and their loved ones with a focus on disabilities and neurodivergence; |

| ○ | Personalized help in a time of great need through Wellthy, a program that helps with emergency housing, healthcare, substance abuse, complex eldercare issues and other moments of crisis; |

| ○ |
