Ladies and Gentlemen,
The geopolitical challenges will continue to accompany us in 2024. In addition to the ongoing war in Ukraine, triggered by the Russian invasion on 24 February 2022, the Middle East has been on the brink of conflagration since the unprecedented attack by the Palestinian terrorist organisation Hamas on Israeli territory on 7 October 2023. Even though the indirect effects of these events, which included disrupted supply chains, a sharp rise in inflation, significantly higher interest rates and increased volatility on the capital markets in general, have since subsided somewhat, Deutsche Familienversicherung is continuously analysing geopolitical developments and possible countermeasures. What we have already told you in previous reports remains true: our digital business model has proven to be robust. We also overcame these challenges in the first half of 2024 and, above all, protected the customer assets under management.
Insurance revenues grew by 8 per cent in the first half of the year. In addition to the acquisition of new business via our established online and direct channels, premium adjustments in supplementary Dental and Pet health insurance also contributed to this pleasing development. In supplementary Dental insurance, we won the Stiftung Warentest test for the tenth time; a great success that underpins our innovative strength and our endeavours to create the best products for our customers.
We are continuing to intensively develop our direct sales capabilities. This includes further intensified marketing, which is reflected in new TV adverts, among other things, and which led to a temporary increase in costs in the first half of 2024. Against this backdrop, the operating result of $€ 2.4$ million in the first half of 2024 was significantly lower than in the same period of the previous year. However, we are continuing on our path to profitability, have been able to slightly reduce the administrative expense ratio and, with consolidated earnings before taxes of $€ 4.1$ million in the first half of 2024, are well on track to fulfil the profit guidance for 2024 as a whole.
Innovative strength will continue to determine our course - both in terms of products and processes. We will utilise the potential of artificial intelligence for our business model and thus for our customers. At the same time, we want to continue to be an attractive and sustainable company on the labour market.
None of this would have been possible without the dedicated and professional work of all employees. The Executive Board would like to expressly thank them. Together, we will continue to develop the company consistently. Our customers are always at the centre of our activities, for whom we are constantly developing innovative solutions and business processes that live up to our credo: "Simple. Sensible." The Executive Board and all employees would like to thank you for your trust in Deutsche Familienversicherung. We invite you to continue to accompany us on our journey.
Yours sincerely

Dr Stefan Knoll
Chairman of the Executive Board (CEO)
Frankfurt am Main, 11 September 2024
While many companies in the German economy continued to assess the situation as poor in the first half of 2024, expectations regarding economic development brightened overall. Nevertheless, at $+0.3 \%$, economic output in the second quarter of 2024 grew only slightly faster than in the previous quarter. Industry and its export business proved to be a pillar of support for the economy, while the situation in the construction industry remained difficult.
In its economic forecast from summer 2024, the ifo Institute expects private consumption to stagnate initially, but that the purchasing power of private households will increase over the course of 2024. The institute estimates that price-adjusted gross domestic product will increase by $0.4 \%$ in 2024 and by $1.5 \%$ in 2025 . Compared to the ifo Institute's economic forecast from spring 2024, this means an increase in the growth rate for 2024 of 0.2 percentage points. The ifo Institute expects the inflation rate to fall significantly from $5.9 \%$ in 2023 to $2.2 \%$ in 2024 as a whole and further to $1.7 \%$ in 2025.
On the labour market, demographic trends in particular will increasingly stand in the way of a substantial acceleration in employment growth. Despite immigration and ongoing efforts to integrate Ukrainian and other refugees into the labour market, the total potential workforce is expected to reach a maximum in the near future due to ageing.
In terms of monetary policy, the European Central Bank (ECB) has recently loosened its monetary reins somewhat. The ECB had previously raised its key interest rates by a total of 4.5 percentage points between July 2022 and September 2023. An initial interest rate cut of 0.25 percentage points has now been decided at the June meeting of the ECB Governing Council. In its economic forecast from summer 2024, the ifo Institute expects the ECB to lower its key interest rates further in light of the improved inflation outlook, although it is likely to proceed cautiously in view of the continued high level of uncertainty surrounding the inflation trend.
In its "2024/01 Insurance Perspectives" forecast, the German Insurance Association (GDV) predicts premium growth of $2.8 \%$ for the German insurance industry in 2024. According to the GDV, the weak development of single premiums will have a particularly negative impact on life insurers' business, while the property and casualty insurance and private health insurance segments can expect premium growth. GDV is forecasting premium growth of $4.5 \%$ for private health insurance in 2024, with the agreed premium adjustments representing a key growth driver. In view of the increased service expenses in the healthcare sector, GDV expects higher premium growth of $6 \%$ to $8 \%$ for 2025. For property and casualty insurance, GDV is forecasting an increase in premium income of $7.8 \%$ for 2024.
Deutsche Familienversicherung can look back on the first half of 2024 with an overall pleasing business performance despite the continued unstable geopolitical situation. The transition from a purely growth-oriented to a performanceoriented business model, which was already initiated in 2021, was continued.
Numerous individual measures underpin this further development of the company. This relates in particular to the alignment of sales with a stronger focus on direct sales channels, supported by our own TV adverts and targeted marketing initiatives. These marketing measures were even stepped up again in the first half of 2024, resulting in a temporary increase in costs compared to the same period in the previous year.
Finally, cost management measures and stricter cost discipline are helping Deutsche Familienversicherung to consistently pursue its profitability path. In the first half of 2024, these measures made a pleasing contribution to the fulfilment of the annual target set for 2024 of generating positive consolidated earnings before taxes of $€ 5$ to 7 million.
In the first six months of 2024, Deutsche Familienversicherung was once again able to generate further growth. At $€ 7.1$ million, new business in the first six months of 2024, measured in current premiums for one year (excluding premium adjustments), was nevertheless 14\% lower than the new business in the same period of the previous year ( $€ 8.2$ million). Against the backdrop of the general economic situation, in particular due to the high level of uncertainty caused by the Ukraine crisis, Deutsche Familienversicherung had already decided to reduce absolute sales expenditure in 2022 in order to contribute to profitability. Digital sales channels once again proved to be robust and efficient, flanked by marketing initiatives including product-related TV adverts.
Taking into account the sales activities and product-related initiatives planned for the second half of 2024, after the first six months of the current financial year we are below our annual sales plan, which envisages a volume of new and additional business of around $€ 18$ million. However, initiated premium increases and several cooperation agreements that have been initiated or are currently in development harbour additional potential for future sales success. These may also be reflected in the figures for the full year 2024. In any case, Deutsche Familienversicherung will not abandon the profitability path it has embarked on and will continue to only acquire new business that is appropriately priced.
The aim of Deutsche Familienversicherung is to further broaden the product base in primary insurance in order to offer its customers optimum protection, true to the motto "Simple.Sensible." Our growth driver DFV-ZahnSchutz was recognised as the test winner by Stiftung Warentest for the ninth time in 2024. In supplementary Dental insurance, as in DFV Pet health insurance, we made premium adjustments that took effect in the first half of 2024. In Pet health insurance, the adjustment was mainly due to the increased claims requirement resulting from the change in the veterinary fee schedule (GOT) at the end of 2022. We continue to successfully market DFV Accident insurance, including the exclusive product rated "very good" (grade 1.5) by Stiftung Warentest. The DFV Liability insurance was also recently named the test winner (score 0.6) by Stiftung Warentest. In general, Deutsche Familienversicherung is making increased efforts to further stimulate growth in the Property/Casualty insurance products.
Deutsche Familienversicherung assumed liability as reinsurer of the CareFlex Chemie (Group) consortium in mid-2021. This Inwards Reinsurance business continued as planned in the first half of 2024.
With a view to the forecasts from the 2023 Group management report, we do not see any significant changes within the meaning of DRS 16.35, with the exception of the adjustment of the expected earnings framework presented below, nor any deviations from the fundamental development of the Group as presented in the 2023 Group management report. Assuming that the macroeconomic environment is not the cause of any extraordinary negative effects on earnings, Deutsche Familienversicherung planned consolidated earnings before taxes of $€ 5-7$ million for 2024 according to the forecast report. As set out below in the forecast report, Deutsche Familienversicherung is still aiming for consolidated earnings before taxes of $€ 5-7$ million in 2023.
Deutsche Familienversicherung has been reporting its business results in accordance with the new IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 accounting standards since 1 January 2023. When applying the IFRS standards at Group level, Deutsche Familienversicherung nevertheless essentially uses variables in accordance with the HGB accounting regime for internal management purposes.
| Key performance indicators | |||
|---|---|---|---|

| Total portfolio (current contributions for one year as a business figure) | 199.3 | 192.3 | $+3.6 \%$ |
| New business (current premiums for one year as a business figure) | 9.0 | 10.6 | $-15.0 \%$ |
| Insurance revenue | 69.8 | 64.9 | $+7.6 \%$ |
| Insurance Service Result (operating result) | 2.4 | 5.0 | $-52.3 \%$ |
| Combined ratio in \% | $96.5 \%$ | $92.0 \%$ | 4.4 pp |
| Consolidated earnings before taxes | 4.1 | 4.0 | $+2.8 \%$ |

| Earnings per share in accordance with IAS 33 (€) | 0.20 | 0.18 | $+6.3 \%$ |
Insurance revenue in accordance with IFRS 17 rose by $7.6 \%$ to $€ 69.8$ million in the first half of 2024 compared to the same period of the previous year. This pleasing growth was driven by the supplementary Health insurance reporting segment, where insurance revenue rose by $8.0 \%$. The Property/Casualty ( $+2.7 \%$ ) and Pet ( $+6.5 \%$ ) reporting segments recorded lower sales growth. The Inwards Reinsurance business newly included in 2021 is not contained in insurance revenue in the amount of premium income in the reporting logic of IFRS 17.
Insurance service expenses increased by 10.2\% from $€ 37.2$ million in the first half of 2023 to $€ 41.1$ million in the reporting period. At $61.0 \%$, the claims ratio was slightly higher than in the first half of 2023 (59.5\%). Deutsche Familienversicherung capitalised insurance acquisition cash flow (IACF) paid in the supplementary Dental insurance and Pet insurance products valued using the Premium Allocation Approach (PAA). The corresponding amounts from the amortisation over the term of the contracts are recognised as an expense in the acquisition costs for a period (IFRS 17.28C). Total acquisition costs increased significantly in the first half of 2024 compared to the same period of the previous year by $33.0 \%$ to $€ 11.6$ million. This was due in particular to a temporary increase in expenses for advertising campaigns (own TV adverts). A significant reduction in these expenses is already planned for the second half of 2024, meaning that the relative expense burden for 2024 as a whole is expected to be lower.
Other expenses as operating expenses increased slightly in absolute terms in the reporting period, but the administrative expense ratio fell pleasingly to $18.2 \%$, compared to $18.5 \%$ in the first half of 2023. This is once again due to the high degree of cost discipline with a focus on operating expenses (opex). Expenses from reinsurance contracts held increased slightly by $€ 0.2$ million.
The significant $€ 2.9$ million increase in acquisition costs resulted in a reduction in the operating result (insurance service result in accordance with IFRS 17) compared to the first half of 2023. The operating result for the reporting period was $€ 2.6$ million lower than the operating result for the first half of 2023. Around half of this decline in operating result relates to the supplementary Health insurance reporting segment ( $€-1.3$ million), as the advertising stimuli (TV adverts) in the first half of 2024 largely related to supplementary dental insurance. Overall, Deutsche Familienversicherung generated a positive operating result in the first six months of the 2024 financial year, which underpins the targets for the year.
The loss ratio in the Property/Casualty reporting segment rose only marginally from $12.3 \%$ in the first half of 2023 to $13.4 \%$ in the reporting period. It therefore remains well below the actuarially calculated risk requirement. In the Pet reporting segment, the loss ratio increased slightly to $64.3 \%$ (first half of 2023: $61.6 \%$, which means that it is also within the actuarially expected ranges here. This reporting segment was the subject of a premium adjustment implemented by Deutsche Familienversicherung with effect from 1 January 2024, which successfully counteracted the effects of the increase in the scale of fees for veterinarians (GOT) at the end of 2022.
The overall combined ratio increased from $92.0 \%$ (first half of 2023) to $96.5 \%$ in the reporting period. This key figure is therefore temporarily above the target of $95.0 \%$ that Deutsche Familienversicherung has set itself for the combined ratio.
The result from the management of investments, which Deutsche Familienversicherung mainly holds in two fully consolidated special funds, developed favourably in the reporting period and amounted to $€ 1.6$ million (first half of 2023: $€ 0.6$ million). The investment result takes into account the fact that the unrealised changes in the market value of certain financial instruments, classified as fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), are recognised in the income statement as investment income or expenses.
Another component of the financial result is the insurance financial result newly introduced by IFRS 17, which on the one hand consists of a correction of those parts of the investment result that are attributable to policyholders via the excess interest or profit participation. On the other hand, the technical financial result reflects changes in the insurance, in particular interest-related input factors in relation to those portfolios that are measured using the variable fee approach (VFA) when applying IFRS 17. The technical financial result increased by $€ 2.3$ million to $€ 1.7$ million in the reporting period.
After offsetting the investment result against the technical financial result in accordance with IFRS 17, the financial result amounted to $€ 3.3$ million in the first half of 2024, compared to $€ 0.1$ million in the same period of the previous year.
Deutsche Familienversicherung closes the first half of 2024 with a pre-tax profit of $€ 4.1$ million (first half of 2023: $€ 4.0$ million). After offsetting taxes, earnings after taxes totalled $€ 2.8$ million for the first half of 2024 (first half of 2023: $€ 2.7$ million). The total comprehensive income for the first half of 2024 amounts to $€ 3.4$ million (first half of 2023: $€ 3.6$ million).
The earnings performance in the reporting period is essentially characterised by the fact that a temporary significant increase in acquisition costs, mainly driven by advertising campaigns and accompanied by otherwise continued strict cost management, was slightly more than offset by a significant increase in the financial result.
The financial position of Deutsche Familienversicherung is essentially characterised by the growth in ageing provisions typical of the business model (especially for supplementary Long-term care insurance), which must be backed by investments in separate "security assets". Specific regulatory provisions apply to these customer funds to which policyholders are entitled. The IFRS 17 accounting regime reflects this logic, which includes a legally standardised minimum participation of policyholders in surpluses, within the VFA valuation model.
In the first half of 2024, Deutsche Familienversicherung also transferred contributions from the supplementary Health insurance business operated in the form of life insurance to the "security assets" as planned and in accordance with the contract for the purpose of financing the ageing provisions, namely in the amount of $€ 11.4$ million. However, total investments only increased by $1.1 \%$ to $€ 218.8$ million in the reporting period, as Deutsche Familienversicherung also decided in the first half of 2024 to slightly reduce the investments of "free assets" in favour of cash and cash equivalents. The latter are not recognised as "Investments" under IFRS, but under the item "Cash and cash equivalents", which increased significantly by $€ 10.0$ million in the reporting period.
Group equity increased by $€ 3.4$ million or $3.3 \%$ to $€ 107.6$ million compared to 31 December 2023.

The solvency position of Deutsche Familienversicherung remained adequate in the first half of 2024 with an SCR coverage ratio well above the statutory requirements. Deutsche Familienversicherung was able to meet its payment obligations at all times during the reporting period. There are no recognisable indications of a future risk.
Deutsche Familienversicherung reported in detail on the opportunities and risks in its 2023 Annual Report. The descriptions and assessments of the opportunity and risk situation of Deutsche Familienversicherung remain unchanged.
The object of the company is the insurance business. This activity is naturally associated with risks. It is therefore important to take risks in a targeted manner within the scope of the existing risk-bearing capacity, provided that the associated opportunities can be expected to generate adequate added value. Deutsche Familienversicherung's risk management aims to identify, control and ultimately manage risks at an early stage. Active risk management is carried out by the Executive Board and managers. The heads of department routinely report to the departmental or full Executive Board on the current course of business, including potentially risky aspects.
Deutsche Familienversicherung's risk strategy also includes passing on risks to solvent reinsurance companies with very good credit ratings via proportional risk assumption and flexibly expandable major loss and natural catastrophe cover as well as annually adjusted insurance cover for loss of earnings/business interruption, public liability, cyber risks and business buildings and inventory.
The Executive Board and Supervisory Board are regularly informed about the solvency ratios. At over 300\%, the SCR coverage ratio of Deutsche Familienversicherung remained well above the statutory requirements in the first half of 2024.
The opportunities and risks of Deutsche Familienversicherung can be divided into the following categories:
In addition to risks, the opportunity and risk profile of Deutsche Familienversicherung also includes opportunities that must be utilised in a balanced opportunity/risk management. These include, for example, Insurance effects resulting from a favourable claims experience, as well as opportunities in investments that can be exploited through strategic and tactical investment management decisions and capital market developments. Above all, strategic opportunities can arise, for example, through early entry into future markets, rapid market introduction and sales successes, for example with cooperation partners.
To manage market price risks in the area of investments, a hedging process based on derivative financial instruments was implemented, which provides for the use of standardised derivatives in defined hedging cases. No such hedging was in place as at the reporting date of 30 June 2024, meaning that Deutsche Familienversicherung did not recognise any derivative financial instruments as at 30 June 2024.
In the uncertain geopolitical situation with its inherent uncertainties, we are monitoring our environment very closely in order to be able to counter both emerging opportunities and risks at short notice.
In summary, Deutsche Familienversicherung states that, based on the current knowledge and circumstances described, there are no recognisable current developments that could pose a threat to the Group's continued existence as a going concern or significantly impair its net assets, financial position and results of operations or its risk-bearing capacity.
Deutsche Familienversicherung will continue its profitability course in the second half of 2024 with consistent cost management. The forecast report as part of the 2023 Group management report states that the aim is to continue to grow the portfolio in all areas of primary insurance in 2024 and to realise a new and additional business volume in primary insurance of around $€ 18$ million. Deutsche Familienversicherung remains committed to this in principle, but will consider prioritising the fulfilment of the profitability target over the achievement of the volume target depending on the business development in the further course of the year. Based on the available half-year figures and expectations for the rest of the year, Deutsche Familienversicherung continues to expect positive earnings before taxes in the range of $€ 5-7$ million for the full year 2024.
Thanks to the continued increase in premiums and the ongoing positive effects of the cost management programme, Deutsche Familienversicherung believes it is well positioned for the future and expects a further improvement in earnings. This forecast is subject to uncertainty, particularly against the backdrop of possible distortions on the capital market as a consequence of the crises in Ukraine and the Levant.

The 2023 annual report was published in April 2024 and contained the final changes in equity due to the first-time application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9. At the time of publication of the 2023 half-year report, some technical issues (including certain reinsurance contracts) had not yet been finalised in the accounting insurance industry and among the auditors. We therefore had to retrospectively adjust the equity values as at 30 June 2023, which is why the equity values for the previous year contained in this report differ from those in the 2023 half-year report. In 2023, we also made an adjustment to the estimate in the liability for incurred claims (LIC) in the supplementary dental insurance portfolio. We have also changed this adjustment retrospectively in the 2023 half-year figures so that the figures are comparable with those for the first half of 2024.

We have restructured the segments compared to the 2023 half-year report. The segment allocation presented here corresponds to that in the 2023 Annual Report. We have also applied the changed structure to the previous year's comparative periods for the sake of comparability.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the DFV Group are presented in accordance with IAS 34 and have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the European Union.
The IFRS accounting, valuation, consolidation and reporting principles applied in the preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the 2023 financial year.
Unless otherwise stated, all amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand euros (€).
The following table shows the interest rates used to discount the cash flows:

The various insurance and reinsurance contracts were valued using the following methods:
a) Fully retrospective approach: PAA (primary insurance and reinsurance)
b) Recognition on the basis of fair value: VFA (primary insurance)
c) Modified retrospective approach: GMM (reinsurance)
The following tables analyse the changes in net assets (" + " positive presentation) and liabilities ("-" negative presentation) from primary insurance and reinsurance contracts for each IFRS 17 measurement model. Firstly, the changes in the insurance provision and liabilities are analysed. The changes in the measurement components of the contracts that are not measured using the PAA are then analysed.

Impairments are recognised in profit or loss in the DFV Group and reduce the premium income and the carrying amount of the receivables. If fair values of receivables are to be determined for the required disclosures in the notes, it is assumed in accordance with IFRS 7.29 (a) that the carrying amount represents the best approximate value. In accordance with the provisions of IFRS 13, this results in the allocation of these fair values to hierarchy level 3.

In the following table, the deferred income taxes are allocated to the valuation differences. At Deutsche Familienversicherung, these are essentially valuation differences in the investments from the valuation in accordance with IFRS 9 and in the insurance business from the valuation in accordance with IFRS 17.

The combined income tax rate applicable to Deutsche Familienversicherung and the domestic tax group is $31.9 \%$. The following reconciliation shows the relationship between the profit for the period before income taxes in accordance with IFRS and the income taxes for the period. The Group tax rate selected as the basis for the reconciliation is made up of the corporation tax rate applicable in Germany of 15.0\% plus the solidarity surcharge of $5.5 \%$ and an average trade tax rate of $16.1 \%$. This results in an income tax rate of $31.9 \%$ (previous year: $31.9 \%$ ).

On 12 July 2024, DFV Deutsche Familienversicherung AG received a request for information from the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) to audit the accounting of the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2023 and the associated combined management report. The scope of the audit includes the first-time application of the IFRS 17 accounting standard (so-called random sample audit by BaFin).
As at the balance sheet date (30 June 2024), there are no contingent liabilities in addition to the provisions recognised in the balance sheet that would need to be reported.
