#### H WORLD GROUP LIMITED

#### NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
**FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30 2024 and 2025**

**(Renminbi in millions, except share and per share data, unless otherwise stated)**

**1.**ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

H World Group Limited (the "Company") was incorporated in the Cayman Islands under the laws of the Cayman Islands on January 4, 2007. The principal business activities of the Company and its subsidiaries and consolidated variable interest entities (the "Group") are to develop leased and owned, manachised and franchised hotels mainly in the People's Republic of China("PRC") and Europe.

On January 2, 2020, the Group completed the acquisition of 100% equity interest of Steigenberger Hotels Aktiengesellschaft ("Deutsche Hospitality" or "DH") which was renamed as Steigenberger Hotels GmbH. Deutsche Hospitality was engaged in the business of leasing, franchising, operating and managing hotels in the midscale and upscale market in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. After the acquisition, "legacy DH" refers to Deutsche Hospitality and its subsidiaries and "legacy Huazhu" refers to the Group excluding Deutsche Hospitality.

#### Leased and owned hotels
The Group leases hotel properties from property owners or purchases properties directly and is responsible for all aspects of hotel operations and management, including hiring, training and supervising the managers and employees required to operate the hotels. In addition, the Group is responsible for hotel development and customization to conform to the standards of the Group brands at the beginning of the lease or the construction, as well as repairs and maintenance, operating expenses and management of properties over the term of the lease or the land and building certificate.

As of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2025, the Group had 633 and 612 leased and owned hotels in operation, respectively.

#### Manachised and franchised hotels
The Group enters into franchise and management arrangements with franchisees for which the Group is responsible for providing branding, quality assurance, training, reservation, hiring and appointing of the hotel general manager and various other support services relating to hotel renovation and operations. Those hotels are classified as manachised hotels. Under the typical franchise and management agreements, the franchisee is required to pay an initial franchise fee and ongoing franchise and management service fees, which typically equal to a certain percentage of the revenues of the hotel. The franchisee is responsible for the costs of hotel development, renovation and the costs of its operations. The franchise and management agreements typically range from eight to ten years under legacy Huazhu, and 15 to 20 years for manachised hotels and 10 to 15 years for franchised hotels under legacy DH. These agreements are renewable upon mutual agreement between the Group and the franchisee. There are also some franchised hotels for which the Group does not provide a hotel general manager. As of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2025, the Group had 10,380 and 11,400 manachised hotels in operation and 134 and 125 franchised hotels in operation, respectively.

**2.**SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

#### Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

#### Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its majority-owned subsidiaries and consolidated variable interest entities (the "VIEs"). All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***Variable Interest Entities***

The Group evaluates the need to consolidate certain variable interest entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support.

As of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2025, the impact of the consolidated VIEs are immaterial to the Group's consolidated financial statements.

#### Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Group bases its estimates on historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Group's consolidated financial statements include the useful lives and impairment of property and equipment, right-of-use assets and intangible assets with definite lives, valuation allowance of deferred tax assets, purchase price allocation, impairment of investment, goodwill and intangible assets without definite lives and incremental borrowing rate used to measure lease liabilities.

#### Intangible assets, net
Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their respective estimated useful lives over which the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the Group. These estimated useful lives are generally as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Franchise or manachise agreements | Remaining contract terms from 10 to 20 years |
| Purchased software | 3 - 10 years based on the estimated usage period |
| Other intangible assets including trademark, licenses and other rights | 2 - 15 years based on the contractual term, the length of license agreements and the effective terms of other legal rights |

---

Almost all the brand names and master brand agreement acquired by the Group are considered to have indefinite useful lives since there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors that limit the useful lives of these brands and these brands can be renewed at nominal cost. The Group evaluates the brand name and master brand agreement each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life.

#### Impairment of long-lived assets
The Group evaluates its long-lived assets including property and equipment, net, right-of-use assets and finite lived intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When these events occur, the Group measures impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Group recognizes an impairment loss equal to the difference between the carrying amount and fair value of these assets.

The Group performed a recoverability test of its long-lived assets associated with certain hotels due to the continued underperformance relative to the projected operating results, of which the carrying amount of the long-lived assets exceeded the future undiscounted net cash flows, and recognized an impairment loss of RMB36 and RMB38 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2025, respectively.

Fair value of the long-lived assets was determined by the Group based on the income approach using the discounted cash flow associated with the underlying assets, which incorporated certain assumptions including projected hotels' revenue, growth rates and projected operating costs based on current economic condition, expectation of management and projected trends of current operating results.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***Leases***

The Group determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease at the inception of the contract. A lease arrangement is being evaluated for classification as operating or financing upon lease commencement. Lease liabilities, which represent the Group's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease, and corresponding right-of-use assets, which represent the Group's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of fixed future payments and variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate (initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date) over the lease term, calculated using the discount rate implicit in the lease, if available, or the Group's incremental borrowing rate. For operating leases, lease expense relating to fixed payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and lease expense relating to variable payments is expensed as incurred. For finance leases, the amortization of the asset is recognized over the shorter of the lease term or useful life of the underlying asset.

Most leases have initial terms ranging from 10 to 20 years for legacy Huazhu, and from 20 to 25 years for legacy DH. The lease term includes lessee's options to extend or to early terminate the lease, and lease extension options are included in operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities only to the extent that it is reasonably certain that the Group will exercise such extension options and will not exercise early termination options, respectively. The Group's lease agreements may include nonlease components, mainly common area maintenance, which are combined with the lease components as the Group elects to account for these components as a single lease component, as permitted. The Group elected the practical expedient of not to separate land components outside PRC from leases of specified property and equipment at the ASC 842 transition date. Besides, the Group's lease payments are generally fixed and certain agreements contain variable lease payments based on the operating performance of the leased property and the changes in the index of consumer pricing index ("CPI"). Almost all the lease agreements with variable lease payments based on the changes in CPI are held by legacy DH.

For operating leases, the Group recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate are initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date, otherwise variable lease payments are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. The operating lease expense is recognized as hotel operating costs, general and administrative expenses and pre-opening expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. For finance lease, lease expense is front-loaded, because ROU asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or useful life of the underlying asset, and the lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, and the interest expense declines as the balance of lease liability declines; the depreciation of ROU assets and interest expense on lease liabilities are respectively classified as hotel operating costs and interest expense in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Additionally, the Group elected not to recognize leases with lease terms of 12 months or less at the commencement date. Lease payments on short-term leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and are not included in lease liabilities. The Group's lease agreements do not contain any significant residual value guarantees or restricted covenants.

The Group reassesses of a contract is or contains a leasing arrangement and re-measures ROU assets and liabilities upon modification of the contract. The Group will derecognize ROU assets and liabilities, with difference recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income on the contract termination.

#### Income taxes
Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the relevant statutory tax laws and regulations.

Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Net operating losses are carried forward and credited by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of the Group, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. For a particular tax-paying component of an entity and within a particular tax jurisdiction, all deferred tax liabilities and assets, as well as any related valuation allowance, shall be offset and presented as a single noncurrent amount. However, an entity shall not offset deferred tax liabilities and assets attributable to different tax-paying components of the entity or to different tax jurisdictions.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

According to ASC 740-270 Interim Reporting, an estimated annual effective tax rate (AETR) on full year estimated ordinary income should first be determined by the Company and the estimated AETR is then applied to year-to-date ordinary income to compute the interim tax provision on ordinary income.

#### Foreign currency translation
The reporting currency of the Group is the Renminbi ("RMB"). The functional currency of the Company is the United States dollar ("US$"). Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are remeasured in functional currency at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency during the year are converted into the functional currency at the applicable rates of exchange prevailing on the day transactions occurred. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the statements of comprehensive income.

Assets and liabilities are translated into RMB at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date, equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates and revenues, expenses, gains and losses are translated using the average rate for the year. Translation adjustments are reported as cumulative translation adjustments and are shown as a separate component of comprehensive income.

The financial records of the Group's subsidiaries are maintained in local currencies, which are the functional currencies.

#### Fair value
The established fair value hierarchy by U.S. GAAP has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to measure fair value:

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The financial instruments of the Group not measured at fair value include cash and cash equivalent, restricted cash, loan receivables, receivables, held to maturity investments in short-term investments and long-term investments, payables, short-term debts and long-term debts. The carrying amounts of the short-term financial instruments approximates their fair value due to their short-term nature. The long-term debts, long-term loan receivables, and held to maturity investments in long-term investments approximate their fair values, because the bearing interest rates approximate market interest rate, and market interest rates have not fluctuated significantly since the commencement of loan contracts signed.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

The following table presents our assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Available-for-sale debt securities |  |  | 235 |
| Employee benefit plan assets | 5 |  |  |

---

Equity securities with readily determinable fair value and employee benefit plan assets are valued using a market approach based on the quoted market prices or broker/dealer quotes of identical or comparable instruments.

Level 3 fair value of available-for-sale debt securities is determined based on income approach using various unobservable inputs. The determination of the fair value required significant judgement by management with respect to the assumptions and estimates for the revenue growth rate, weighted average cost of capital, lack of marketability discounts, expected volatility and probability in equity allocation.

Certain assets are measured at a non-recurring basis. The following table presents the asset classification, the fair value and losses recognized for the year ended December 31, 2024 and for the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to impairment of the related assets.

#### Share-based compensation
The Group recognizes share-based compensation in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income based on the fair value of equity awards on the date of the grant, with compensation expenses recognized over the period in which the grantee is required to provide service to the Group in exchange for the equity award. Vesting of certain equity awards are based on the performance conditions for a period of time following the grant date. Share-based compensation expense is recognized according to the Group's judgement of likely future performance and will be adjusted in future periods based on the actual performance.

#### Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income attributable to holders of ordinary shares by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary shares were exercised or converted into ordinary shares, which consist of the ordinary shares issuable upon the conversion of the convertible senior notes (using the if-converted method) and ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and vest of nonvested restricted stocks (using the treasury stock method).

#### Translation into United States Dollars
The financial statements of the Group are stated in RMB. Translations of amounts from RMB into United States dollars are solely for the convenience of the reader and were calculated at the rate of US$1 = RMB7.1636, on June 30, 2025, as set forth in H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board. The translation is not intended to imply that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into United States dollars at that rate on June 30, 2025, or at any other rate.

**7.** **ASSETS AND LIABILITIES HELD FOR SALE**

In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Group committed to a plan to sell certain lease-and-owned hotels (the "disposal group") included in legacy DH. In February 2024, the Group entered into a Share and Asset Purchase and Transfer Agreement with an unaffiliated third party, and the transaction is expected to be closed in 2024, subject to certain customary closing conditions. As of December 31, 2024, the Company remained actively pursuing the sale of the business, with the transaction expected to be completed in phases throughout 2025. According with the amendment signed in early 2025, the first tranche was completed during February 2025, and the residual tranche is expected to be completed in phases throughout 2025. For the year ended December 31, 2024 and six months ended June 30, 2025, impairments of RMB27 and RMB9, respectively, were recorded as the fair value of certain assets fell below their carrying value.

The total assets and liabilities of the disposal group that were classified as held for sale on the Group's consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2025, were as follows:

#### Bank borrowings
In August 2022, the Group entered into a 3-year long-term facility of EUR220 million and RMB-equivalent of EUR110 million term facility, and EUR70 million revolving credit facility agreement with several banks. The EUR70 million revolving credit facility is available for 35 months after the date of the agreement. The interest rate on the loan for each interest period is the aggregate of the applicable Margin and EURIBOR or one-year benchmark LPR.

**11.**SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

In September 2009, the Group adopted the 2009 Share Incentive Plan which allows the Group to offer incentive awards to employees, officers, directors and consultants or advisors (the "Participants"). In March 2015, the Group increased the maximum number of incentive awards available under the 2009 Share Incentive Plan to 430,000,000. In June 2023, the Group adopted the 2023 Share Incentive Plan (collectively with 2009 Share Incentive Plan, the "Incentive Award Plans"), which allows the Group to offer incentive awards up to 20,000,000 ordinary shares to Participants. In June 2024, the Group increased the maximum number of incentive awards available under the 2023 Share Incentive Plan to 300,000,000. The incentive awards granted under the Incentive Award Plans typically have a maximum life of ten years and vest in typical ways as listed below:

a.)Vest 50% on the second anniversary of the stated vesting commencement date with the remaining 50% vesting ratably over the following two years;

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

b.)Vest over a period of ten years in equal yearly installments;

As of June 30, 2025, the Group had granted 274,684,560 options and 355,414,390 nonvested restricted stocks, some of which were subject to adjustment on performance condition.

*Share options*

In 2023, the Group granted 28,625,350 share options to senior officers, which was in five tranches with performance conditions, and the vesting of each of the five tranches commences respectively at the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth anniversary of grant date.Each tranche is accounted for as a separate award with the same grant date, the same service inception date and its own requisite service period. The actual number of share options that could be exercised is contingent on certain financial performance of the year when vesting of share option commences. The Group reassesses the performance condition at each reporting period for true up. For each tranche, 50% vests on the second anniversary of the stated vesting commencement date with the remaining 50% vesting ratably over the following two years and will become exercisable if certain performance conditions are met for the five-year period ending December 31, 2027.

In 2025, the Group granted 888,210 share options to senior officers, which was in three tranches with performance conditions, and the vesting of each of the three tranches commences respectively at the first, second and third anniversary of grant date. Each tranche is accounted for as a separate award with the same grant date, the same service inception date and its own requisite service period. The actual number of share options that could be exercised is contingent on certain financial performance of the year when vesting of share option commences. The Group reassesses the performance condition at each reporting period for true up. For each tranche, 50% vests on the first anniversary of the stated vesting commencement date with the remaining 50% vesting ratably over the following two years and will become exercisable if certain performance conditions are met for the three-year period ending December 31, 2027.

The weighted-average grant date fair value for options granted in 2023 and 2025 was US$2.22 and US$1.34 per share, respectively, computed using the binomial option pricing model. The binomial option pricing model required the input of subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility and the expected price multiple at which employees were likely to exercise stock options. The Group used historical data to estimate forfeiture rate. Expected volatilities were based on the average historical equity volatility of the Group. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

The fair value of stock options was estimated using the following significant assumptions:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2023** | **2025** |
| Suboptimal exercise factor | 2.80 | 2.80 |
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.61% | 4.68% |
| Volatility | 49.31% | 51.75% |
| Dividend yield | 0.80% | 4.60% |
| Life of option | 10<br> years | 8<br> years |

**13.** **SEGMENT**

The Group's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") has been identified as the chief executive officer. The Group has two operating segments which are legacy Huazhu and legacy DH according to the way management intends to evaluate results and allocate resources within the Group. In identifying its reportable segments, the Group assesses the nature of operating segments and evaluates the operating results of each reporting segment. Both operating segments meet the quantitative thresholds and should be considered as two reportable segments. The CODM uses revenue and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the trends of the segments over time and monitor budget-to-actual variances to assess the performance and determine how to allocate capital resources. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to H World Group Limited excluding income tax expense (benefit), interest expense, interest income, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expenses, gain (loss) from fair value changes of equity securities, foreign exchange gain (loss) and gain (loss) on disposal of investments. Significant segment expenses include adjusted hotel operating costs, adjusted selling and marketing expenses, adjusted general and administrative expenses, all of which exclude depreciation and amortization and share-based compensation expenses. The CODM does not use assets by operating segment when assessing performance or making operating segment resource allocations.
