FOURTH QUARTER FISCAL 2021 EARNINGS CALL MAY 20, 2021Monro, Inc. Investor Presentation September 2021

Certain statements in this presentation, other than statements of historical fact, including estimates, projections, statementsrelated to our business plans and operating results are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the PrivateSecurities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Monro has identified some of these forward-looking statements with words suchas “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “estimates,” “is likely,” “predicts,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “may,” “will,” “should,” and“intends” and the negative of these words or other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements are basedon Monro’s current expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions as of the date such statements are made, and aresubject to risks and uncertainties that may cause results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements, to include the significant uncertainty relating to the duration and scope of the COVID-19 pandemic andits impact on our customers, executive officers and employees. Additional information regarding these risks anduncertainties are described in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including in the “RiskFactors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of ourmost recently filed periodic reports on Forms 10-K and Form 10-Q, which are available on Monro’s website athttps://corporate.monro.com/investors/financial-information/. Monro assumes no obligation to update or revise theseforward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available in the future.

In addition to including references to diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), which is a generally accepted accountingprinciples (“GAAP”) measure, this presentation includes references to adjusted diluted earnings per share, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Monro has included a reconciliation from adjusted diluted EPS to its most directly comparableGAAP measure, diluted EPS in Slide 10. Management views this non-GAAP financial measure as a way to better assesscomparability between periods because management believes the non-GAAP financial measure shows the Company’score business operations while excluding certain non-recurring items and items related to our Monro.Forward or acquisitioninitiatives.

This non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to represent, and should not be considered more meaningful than, or asan alternative to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure. This non-GAAP financial measure may be different fromsimilarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
