For further information on fair values of financial instruments see Note 4 – Fair value measurements. Term LoansOn April 28, 2021, Birkenstock Limited Partner S.à r.l. entered into a senior facilities agreement (the “Senior Term Facilities Agreement”). Included within the Senior Term Facilities Agreement is a term loan facility (the “Original Term Loan”). Borrowings made pursuant to the Original Term Loan consisted of a Euro-denominated facility with an original aggregate principal amount of €375.0 million (the "Original EUR Term Loan") and a USD-denominated facility with an original aggregate principal amount of $850.0 million (the "Original USD Term Loan"). The Original Term Loan’s maturity was April 30, 2028. The Company paid banking and commitment fees of €15.4 million and €22.7 million on the Euro- and USD-denominated components, respectively, which were capitalized and amortized to "Finance cost, net" using the effective interest method over the life of the loan. On May 28, 2024 Birkenstock Limited Partner S.à r.l., entered into a term and revolving facilities agreement for a new syndicated credit facility (the "Term and Revolving Facilities Agreement") consisting of a €375.0 million Euro-denominated term loan facility (the "EUR Term Loan") and a $280.0 million USD-denominated term loan facility (the "USD Term Loan") (collectively, the "Term Loan"). Effective on August 2, 2024, the Original Term Loan was extinguished and replaced with the Term Loan. The Term Loan maturity is February 28, 2029 and the interest rate is based on EURIBOR (for the EUR Term Loan) and Term SOFR (for the USD Term Loan), plus a margin which ranges between 1.60% and 2.60% (for the EUR Term Loan) and 1.90% and 2.60% (for the USD Term Loan) depending on the leverage. The Company paid banking and commitment fees of €2.8 million and $1.6 million on the Euro- and USD-denominated components, respectively, which are capitalized and amortized to "Finance cost, net" using the effective interest method over the life of the loan. The Company made a voluntary prepayment of $50.0 million during the year ended September 30, 2025 and $100.0 million during the year ended September 30, 2024 towards the USD Term Loan. ABL Facility and Revolving Credit FacilityOn April 28, 2021, Birkenstock Limited Partner S.à r.l. also entered into an agreement for an asset-based lending facility (the "ABL Facility”) under which further loan capital of up to €200.0 million could be drawn down over a five-year period. The ABL Facility required a commitment fee of 0.375% of the drawable loan balance. This commitment fee was paid by the Company on a quarterly basis. The ABL Facility remained undrawn throughout the life of the facility. On August 2, 2024, the ABL Facility was extinguished and replaced with a new revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility" or "RCF") under the Term and Revolving Facilities Agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility allows to draw down further loan capital of €225.0 million until February 28, 2029 and requires a commitment fee of 0.50% of the drawable loan balance. This commitment fee is paid by the Company on a quarterly basis. During the year ended September 30, 2025, €10.0 million of the €225.0 million RCF was separated to a new Ancillary Facility to be used for guarantees. As result, €215.0 million of the RCF is available and remains undrawn as of September 30, 2025. Vendor LoanOn April 30, 2021, in connection with the acquisition of Birkenstock GmbH & Co. KG by Birkenstock Group BV & Co. KG, a subsidiary of the Holding, (the "Transaction"), the Holding entered into a vendor loan agreement with AB-Beteiligungs GmbH for an amount of €275.0 million (the “Vendor Loan”), which bears interest of 4.37% per annum. Interest is due annually upon the anniversary of the Transaction and, at the Company’s election, may be paid in cash or, if not paid in cash, accrues on each annual interest payment date and is included in the principal amount of the Vendor Loan on and following such interest payment date. The Vendor Loan matures on October 30, 2029, which maturity date may be extended at the Company’s election up to three times, with each extension up to six months. The Company made a voluntary prepayment of €100.0 million towards the Vendor Loan during the year ended September 30, 2024.

Additionally, the Company paid banking and issuance fees of €14.3 million, which are capitalized and being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the Senior Notes. As per the prepayment clause included in the Senior Notes, the Company recognized this agreement as a hybrid financial instrument which included an embedded derivative.

The changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instrument were recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
