2026 Proxy Statement i

Proxy Statement

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Nomad Foods Limited (“we,” “us,” “Nomad” or the “Company”) is soliciting proxies to be voted at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). By using a proxy, you can vote even if you do not attend the Annual Meeting. This proxy statement describes the matters on which you are being asked to vote so you can make an informed decision.

Questions and Answers

Q:	*Why did I receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials in the mail instead of a paper copy of the proxy materials?*

Pursuant to the rules adopted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we have elected to provide shareholders access to our proxy materials over the Internet. We believe that the e-proxy process expedites our shareholders’ receipt of proxy materials and lowers the costs of distribution. Accordingly, we are sending a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, which we refer to as the “Notice,” on or about May 13, 2026 to our shareholders at the close of business on May 4, 2026 (the “Record Date”). The Notice contains instructions on how to access our proxy statement and annual report and vote online. If you received a Notice and would like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials instead of downloading a printable version from the Internet, please follow the instructions included in the Notice for requesting such materials at no charge.

Q:	*What am I voting on?*

A:	At the Annual Meeting, you will be asked to vote on the following proposals. Our Board’s recommendation for each of these proposals is set forth below.



Proposal		Board Recommendation

1. To elect nine members of the Board of Directors, each to hold office for a one-year term expiring at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.		FOR each Director Nominee

2. To ratify the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2026 fiscal year.		FOR

We will also consider other business that properly comes before the meeting in accordance with the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“BVI law”) and our Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Memorandum and Articles”).

Q:	*Who can vote?*

A:	Holders of our ordinary shares, no par value (the “Ordinary Shares”) at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to vote their Ordinary Shares at the Annual Meeting.

Q:	*How many votes are eligible to be cast at the Annual Meeting?*

A:	As of the Record Date, there were 139,791,169 Ordinary Shares issued, outstanding and entitled to vote. Each Ordinary Share carries the right to one vote on each matter to be voted on at the Annual Meeting.

Q:	*What rules govern our Annual Meeting and the voting process?*

We will hold our Annual Meeting in accordance with the corporate governance practices of the British Virgin Islands and our Memorandum and Articles. As we are a foreign private issuer, as defined by the rules of the SEC, we are exempt from the rules and regulations under the United States Securities

2026 Proxy Statement 1

Proxy Statement

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) related to the furnishing and content of proxy statements. In addition, as a foreign private issuer, we are generally not required to follow the voting requirements applicable to U.S. domestic issuers under the NYSE rules.

Q:	*What constitutes a quorum, and why is a quorum required?*

We are required to have a quorum of shareholders present to conduct business at the meeting. The presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of one shareholder entitled to vote on the matter to be presented will constitute a quorum, permitting us to conduct the business of the Annual Meeting.

Q:	*What is the difference between a “shareholder of record” and a “street name” holder?*

If your Ordinary Shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare, you are considered a “shareholder of record” or a “registered shareholder” of those Ordinary Shares. If your Ordinary Shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank, trust or other nominee or custodian (each, a “Broker”), you are considered the “beneficial owner” of those Ordinary Shares, which are held in “street name.” The Notice has been forwarded to you by your Broker who is considered, with respect to those Ordinary Shares, the shareholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your nominee on how to vote your Ordinary Shares by following their instructions for voting by telephone or on the Internet or, if you specifically request a copy of the printed materials, you may use the voting instruction card included in such materials.

Q:	*How do I vote?*

A:	If you are a shareholder of record, you may vote:

By Internet. The enclosed proxy card indicates the website you may access for Internet voting. The Internet voting system allows you to confirm that the system has properly recorded your votes.

By Telephone. You can vote your proxy by calling 1-866-868-1646. If you vote by telephone, you do not need to return your proxy card.

By Mail. If you are located in the United States and you received a paper copy of the proxy materials, you can vote by marking, dating and signing your proxy card and returning it by mail in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. If you are located outside the United States, you should add the necessary postage to the enclosed envelope to ensure delivery. In order to ensure that your vote is received on or prior to the date of the Annual Meeting, we recommend that your proxy card be returned by overnight mail.

In Person at the Annual Meeting. If you attend the Annual Meeting, we will give you a ballot when you arrive. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we encourage you to vote your Ordinary Shares by proxy so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.

Detailed instructions for Internet and telephone voting are set forth on the Notice, which contains instructions on how to access our proxy statement and annual report online.

If you are a beneficial owner, you must follow the voting procedures of your Broker included with your proxy materials. If your Ordinary Shares are held by a Broker and you intend to vote at the Annual Meeting, please follow the instructions under “Who can attend the Annual Meeting?”

Q:	*What are the requirements to elect the director nominees?*

A:	The affirmative vote of a majority of Ordinary Shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is required in order for a director to be elected. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote “AGAINST” a director nominee.

2 Nomad Foods

Proxy Statement

Q:	*What are the requirements for ratification of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm?*

The affirmative vote of a majority of Ordinary Shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is required for the ratification of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2026 fiscal year. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote “AGAINST” the ratification proposal.

Q:	*What if I am a beneficial owner and I do not give the nominee voting instructions?*

If you are a beneficial owner and your Ordinary Shares are held in “street name,” the Broker is bound by the rules of the NYSE regarding whether or not it can exercise discretionary voting power for any particular proposal if the Broker has not received voting instructions from you. Brokers have the authority to vote on behalf of Ordinary Shares for which their customers do not provide voting instructions on certain routine matters. A broker non-vote occurs when a Broker returns a proxy but does not vote on a particular proposal because the Broker does not have discretionary authority to vote on the proposal and has not received specific voting instructions for the proposal from the beneficial owner of the Ordinary Shares. Broker non-votes are included in the calculation of the number of votes considered to be present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum, however, as broker non-votes are deemed not entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting with regard to a proposal, they do not have any effect on the outcome of a vote, assuming a quorum is present.

The election of directors proposal is a non-discretionary matter and therefore a Broker may not exercise discretion to vote your Ordinary Shares for or against Proposal 1 absent your voting instructions. The ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm is a discretionary matter and therefore a Broker may generally exercise discretion to vote your Ordinary Shares for or against Proposal 2 absent your voting instructions.

Q:	*What if I sign and return my proxy without making any selections?*

If you sign and return your proxy without making any selections, your Ordinary Shares will be voted “FOR” each of the director nominees and “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2026 fiscal year. If other matters properly come before the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxy holders, Dominic Brisby, Ruben Baldew and Neil Fletcher, or any one of them, will have the authority to vote on those matters for you at their discretion. If your Ordinary Shares are held in “street name”, see the question above on how to vote your Ordinary Shares.

Q:	*How do I change my vote?*

A:	A shareholder of record may revoke his or her proxy by giving written notice of revocation to Computershare before the Annual Meeting, by delivering a later-dated proxy (either in writing, by telephone or over the Internet), or by voting in person at the Annual Meeting.

If your Ordinary Shares are held in “street name”, you may change your vote by following your Broker’s procedures for revoking or changing your proxy.

Q:	*What shares are covered by my proxy card?*

A:	Your proxy reflects all Ordinary Shares owned by you at the close of business on May 4, 2026.

Q:	*What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card?*

If you receive more than one proxy card, it means that you hold Ordinary Shares in more than one account. To ensure that all of your Ordinary Shares are voted, you should sign and return each proxy card. Alternatively, if you vote by telephone or via the Internet, you will need to vote once for each proxy card and voting instruction card you receive.

2026 Proxy Statement 3

Proxy Statement

Q:	*Who can attend the Annual Meeting?*

Only holders of Ordinary Shares and our invited guests are permitted to attend the Annual Meeting. To gain admittance, you must bring a form of government-issued identification to the Annual Meeting, where your name will be verified against our shareholder list. If a Broker holds your Ordinary Shares and you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, you should bring a brokerage statement showing your ownership of the Ordinary Shares as of the Record Date or a letter from the Broker confirming such ownership, and a form of government-issued identification. If you wish to vote your Ordinary Shares that are held by a Broker at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a proxy from your Broker and bring such proxy to the Annual Meeting. Cameras and other recording devices will not be permitted at the Annual Meeting.

Q:	*If I plan to attend the Annual Meeting, should I still vote by proxy?*

Yes. Casting your vote in advance does not affect your right to attend the Annual Meeting. If you send in your proxy card and also attend the Annual Meeting, you do not need to vote again at the Annual Meeting unless you are a shareholder of record (or a beneficial owner who has brought a proxy obtained from your Broker) and want to change your vote. Written ballots will be available at the Annual Meeting for shareholders of record or beneficial owners with proxies.

Q:	*How can I access the Company’s public filings with the SEC?*

A:	You may access any of our public filings with the SEC through the Investors—SEC Filings link on our website at www.nomadfoods.com.

Q:	*What should I do if I have other questions?*

A:	If you have additional questions about this proxy statement or the Annual Meeting or would like additional copies of this proxy statement, please contact: Nomad Foods Limited, Forge, 43 Church Street West, Woking, Surrey, GU21 6HT, Attention: Legal Department, Telephone: +(44) 208 918 3200.

Lillie, (vii) Victoria Parry, (viii) Amit Pilowsky and (ix) Melanie Stack.

Director Qualifications

We believe that each of our nominees has the experience, skills and qualities to fully perform his or her duties as a director and to contribute to our success. Each of our nominees is being nominated because we believe that he or she adheres to the highest standards of personal integrity and possesses excellent interpersonal and communication skills, is highly accomplished in his or her field, has an understanding of the interests and issues that are important to our shareholders and is able to dedicate sufficient time to fulfilling his or her obligations as a director. Our nominees as a group complement each other and each other’s respective experiences, skills and qualities.

Corporate Governance

We are a foreign private issuer, as defined by the rules of the SEC, and as such, we are permitted to follow certain corporate governance practices of our home country, the British Virgin Islands, instead of those otherwise required for U.S. domestic issuers by both the SEC and the NYSE. While we voluntarily follow most NYSE corporate governance rules, we also take advantage of some limited exemptions, certain of which we note in this “Corporate Governance” section.

Independence of Directors

Our Board annually undertakes a review of director independence, which includes a review of each director’s responses to questionnaires asking about any relationships with us. This review is designed to identify and evaluate any transactions or relationships between a director or any member of his or her immediate family and us, or members of our senior management or other members of our Board, and all relevant facts and circumstances regarding any such transactions or relationships.

Based on this review, our Board has affirmatively determined that each of Messrs. Ashken, Dorman, Lillie, MacFarlane and Pilowsky and Mses. Parry and Stack meet the independence requirements of the NYSE’s corporate governance listing standards.

Because Mr. Gottesman and Sir Martin are affiliated with entities that receive advisory fees from us, they are not independent under NYSE corporate governance listing standards. In addition, Messrs. Baldew and Brisby are executive officers of the Company and, therefore, are not independent. Mr. Descheemaeker, who served as our Chief Executive Officer until January 1, 2026, does not qualify as independent under the NYSE’s corporate governance listing standards due to his recent service as an executive officer.

Under BVI law, there is no requirement that our Board consist of a majority of independent directors and our independent directors are not required to hold executive sessions. Seven of our current Board members are (and assuming the re-election of all director nominees, immediately following the Annual Meeting, five of our nine members will be) independent based on NYSE independence standards. While our Board’s non-management directors meet regularly in executive session without management, our Board may not hold an executive session of only independent directors at least once a year as called for by the NYSE.

Mr. Lillie currently serves as the Lead Independent Director of the Board. The Board has created the position of Lead Independent Director to facilitate and strengthen the Board’s independent oversight of our performance and strategy and to promote effective governance standards.

Board Committees

Our Board has three standing Committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, each of which operates under a written charter adopted by the Board. Each Committee reviews its charter periodically to recommend charter changes to the Board as appropriate. A current copy of each of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charters is available through the Investors—Corporate Governance link on our website, www.nomadfoods.com.

Proposal II — Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Audit Committee of our Board is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2026, and our Board hereby submits that selection for ratification by our shareholders at the Annual Meeting. PwC has acted as our independent registered public accounting firm since the Company’s inception in 2014.

The Audit Committee and the Board believe that the retention of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm is in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders, and we are asking our shareholders to ratify the selection of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2026.

Although ratification is not required by our Memorandum and Articles or otherwise, we are submitting the selection of PwC to our shareholders for ratification because we value our shareholders’ views on our Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate governance. The Audit Committee may consider the outcome of the shareholder vote in connection with the Audit Committee’s selection of our independent registered public accounting firm in the next fiscal year but is not bound by the shareholders’ vote. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee may, in its discretion, direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time if it determines that a change would be in the best interests of our Company and our shareholders.
