CEO Comment

Swedbank has once again delivered a strong result. We create value for our customers and shareholders, in both good and bad times.

The global economy continues to be marked by uncertainty. Geopolitical tensions and trade conflicts weigh on prospects for global growth. In our home markets, economic activity was strong in Lithuania, while the development in Estonia, Latvia and Sweden was weaker.

During the quarter, the European Central Bank and the Riksbank cut their policy rates, while the Federal Reserve held its policy rate unchanged.

Swedbank is well-positioned for continued sustainable growth and profitability. The result for the quarter amounted to SEK 7 886m. The return on equity was 15.4 per cent.

Net interest income decreased due to declining interest rates. Net commission income fell due to the stock market downturn at the beginning of the quarter, which led to lower average assets under management.

Costs were unchanged compared to the previous quarter and the cost/income ratio was 0.36. Credit quality is solid with low credit impairments during the quarter.

At Swedbank's Investor Day in June, we presented Swedbank 15/27. The target of a 15 per cent return on equity remains unchanged. The cost-to-income ratio shall not exceed 0.40.

Swedbank 15/27 is focused on strengthening customer interactions, growing volumes and increasing efficiency. This forms the strategy in all four of our business areas. We have a proven business model, clear business priorities and a strong foundation that we are building on.

Swedbank is the leader in mortgage lending in our four home markets and we are maintaining our position in tough competition. Mortgage lending increased in Sweden. In terms of lending through our own channels, volumes increased by SEK 3.5bn. Lending also increased in our Baltic operations.

Deposits from private customers increased in Sweden and the Baltic markets.

In July, Swedbank signed an agreement to acquire all the shares in Stabelo Group AB with expected transfer of ownership in autumn 2025 after approval is received from the relevant authorities. Stabelo offers a digital lending process. This is an important step in developing the mortgage business while also better meeting younger and more digital customers.

Within Swedish Banking, we are optimising our ways of working with a focus on increased availability and an improved customer experience. Customers should be able to seamlessly interact with Swedbank through different channels. During the quarter, we further improved availability via telephone.

Corporate lending increased in Sweden and in our Baltic business. Despite the global uncertainty, Swedbank is well-positioned and in Sweden our corporate business performs strongly. During the year, we increased our market share in lending. Our proactivity is producing results, while we are maintaining our high credit origination standards. In the Baltic countries, we continue to have a strong momentum.

Development within savings, insurance and pensions was positive. Premium and Private Banking continues to grow. We are seeing an increasing number of customers and inflows to our two concepts from both existing and new Swedbank customers.

Our vision is a financially sound and sustainable society. The transition to sustainability offers a clear and enduring business opportunity. The Sustainable Asset Register increased by SEK 6bn and amounted to SEK 142bn at the end of the quarter. Furthermore, half of the bonds that Swedbank arranged during the quarter were classified as sustainable.

The work on strengthening our customers' financial health continues. For a bank anchored in savings bank traditions, this is an important task – especially in these uncertain times.

Our customers' future is our focus.

Jens Henriksson President and CEO

Group development

Result second quarter 2025 compared to first quarter 2025

Swedbank's profit decreased to SEK 7 886m (8 196). Income decreased, while credit impairment provisions increased. Expenses were unchanged compared to the previous quarter. Foreign exchange effects negatively impacted profit before impairments, bank taxes and resolution fees by SEK 94m.

The return on equity was 15.4 per cent (15.2) and the cost/income ratio was 0.36 (0.35).

Income decreased to SEK 16 962m (17 329). Net interest income and net commission income fell, while net gains and losses on financial items and other income rose. Foreign exchange effects negatively impacted income by SEK 158m.

Net interest income decreased to SEK 10 917m (11 489) due to the phase-in of lower lending rates, lower interest rate on central bank deposits and foreign exchange effects during the quarter. This was partly offset by lower deposit rates, one extra day of interest and reduced funding costs.

Net commission income decreased to SEK 3 902m (4 052). The decline was mainly due to lower income from asset management, which was impacted by a lower average stock market level during the quarter. Seasonally higher card commissions contributed positively.

Net gains and losses on financial items increased to SEK 856m (541), mainly driven by a high level of activity in fixed income and FX trading as well as positive revaluation effects on shareholdings. Negative revaluation effects within derivatives offsets the increase.

Other income rose to SEK 1 286m (1 247). The change was primarily a result of revaluation effects within net insurance. The underlying insurance business and results from partly owned companies were stable.

Expenses were unchanged during the quarter at SEK 6 119m (6 115). Marketing expenses were lower due to the previous quarter's donation to the Estonian educational foundation established by the bank. Staff costs fell slightly, mainly due to a lower number of employees, partly offset by the annual salary increase in the Baltic countries. IT and consulting expenses rose

seasonally. The bank received a VAT reimbursement during the quarter of SEK 174m for 2018, in addition to the SEK 205m received for 2017 in the previous quarter. Foreign exchange effects reduced expenses by SEK 64m.

Credit impairments amounted to SEK 150m (-141), corresponding to a credit impairment ratio of 0.03 per cent (-0.03). Provisions increased for individually assessed loans by SEK 176m (89) and for updated macroeconomic scenarios by SEK 95m (29). Post-model adjustments of SEK 129m (17) were reversed.

Bank taxes and resolution fees amounted to SEK 677m (929). The decrease was mainly due to lower bank taxes in Lithuania and Latvia.

The income tax expense amounted to SEK 2 130m (2 229) and corresponded to an effective tax rate of 21.3 per cent (21.4). A decision in Estonia to raise the corporate tax rate contributed to a higher effective tax rate, while the quarter also included a tax-exempt increase in the market value of equities that reduced the effective tax rate by a corresponding degree.

Result January-June 2025 compared to January-June 2024

Swedbank's profit decreased to SEK 16 082m (17 023) due to lower income and higher credit impairments, partly offset by reduced expenses and lower bank and income taxes. Foreign exchange effects negatively impacted profit before impairments, bank taxes and resolution fees by SEK 193m.

The return on equity was 15.2 per cent (17.1) and the cost/income ratio was 0.36 (0.35).

Income fell to SEK 34 291m (36 324) due to lower net interest income, net commission income and lower net gains and losses on financial items. The decrease was partly offset by higher other income. Foreign exchange effects negatively impacted income by SEK 295m.

Net interest income amounted to SEK 22 406m (24 764), a decrease of 10 per cent. Net interest income was negatively impacted by a lower interest rate environment.

Net commission income fell by 2 per cent and amounted to SEK 7 954m (8 145). The decline was primarily due to lower card commissions and higher payment-related costs, partly offset by higher income from service concepts and asset management.

Net gains and losses on financial items decreased by 12 per cent to SEK 1 398m (1 593) mainly due to revaluation effects on derivatives, partly offset by positive revaluation effects on shareholdings.

Other income increased by 39 per cent to SEK 2 533m (1 822). The increase was primarily related to improved net insurance income and higher sales of IT and administrative services to savings banks.

Expenses fell by 3 per cent to SEK 12 234m (12 650). The decrease was mainly driven by the two VAT reimbursements of SEK 205m and SEK 174m for 2017 and 2018, respectively, and by lower consulting expenses compared to the first half of 2024. The decrease was partly offset by higher IT and staff costs. Foreign exchange effects reduced expenses by SEK 102m.

Credit impairments amounted to SEK 9m (-145), corresponding to a credit impairment ratio of 0.00 per cent (-0.01), where increased provisions for individually assessed loans were offset by decreased provisions due to changes in exposures and other risk factors. Sold loans contributed to the reversal of credit impairment provisions for the period January–June 2024.

Bank taxes and resolution fees amounted to SEK 1 606m (2 149). The decrease was mainly due to a lower bank tax in Lithuania.

The income tax expense amounted to SEK 4 360m (4 614) and corresponded to an effective tax rate of 21.3 per cent (21.3). A decision in Estonia to raise the corporate tax rate contributed to a higher effective tax rate, while the period also included a tax-exempt increase in the market value of equities that reduced the effective tax rate by a corresponding degree.

The number of purchases in Sweden with Swedbank cards increased by 1 per cent during the quarter compared to the same quarter in 2024. A total of 393 million card purchases were made. In the Baltic countries, the number of card purchases rose by 6 per cent in the same period and totalled 279 million during the quarter.

In Sweden, a total of 223 million domestic payments were made during the quarter, an increase of 2 per cent compared to the same period in 2024. Swedbank's market share of payments executed via Bankgirot was 34 per cent. In the Baltic countries, 142 million domestic payments were processed, a rise of 7 per cent compared to the same period in 2024.

The number of international payments in Sweden increased slightly compared to the same quarter in 2024 to 1.2 million. In the Baltic countries, international payments rose by 20 per cent to 10 million, including transactions between the Baltic countries. The increase was partly driven by cheaper payment options in the bank and lower amounts per payment.

Credit and asset quality

The credit quality of Swedbank's lending is solid and credit impairments are low. Total credit impairment provisions amounted to SEK 7 002m (6 938), of which SEK 594m (715) was post-model adjustments.

For mortgages in Sweden, forborne loans continued to increase but at a slower rate than in the previous quarter. Loans with late payments decreased slightly.

The total share of loans in stage 2, gross, amounted to 8.4 per cent (8.7). For loans to private customers, the corresponding share was 6.7 per cent (6.8) and for corporate lending it was 11.9 per cent (12.8). The share of loans in stage 3, gross, was 0.58 per cent (0.61).

Funding and liquidity

The quarter was dominated by great uncertainty in the financial markets, mainly due to the introduction of higher tariffs by the U.S. government, which also announced additional tariff increases. After a severe downturn, markets gradually recovered. Credit spreads in the bond market recovered completely after the initial shock, while market interest rates fell due to concerns about lower economic growth. During the quarter, the European Central Bank cut its policy rate by 50 basis points and the Riksbank cut its policy rate by 25 basis points.

Swedbank remained active in the funding markets. During the quarter, issuance consisted of covered bonds in Swedish krona as well as a covered bond in euro, the first since 2023. Swedbank also issued senior unsecured debt and senior non-preferred debt in U.S. dollar and Japanese yen.

In total for the quarter, Swedbank issued SEK 55bn in long-term debt instruments. As of 30 June, Swedbank's outstanding short-term funding in issue amounted to SEK 299bn (287). The need for financing is affected by the current liquidity situation, future maturities and changes in deposit and lending volumes, and therefore is adjusted over the course of the year. For more information on funding and liquidity, see Notes 16-18 and pages 57–69 of the Factbook.

Ratings

On 10 April, the credit rating agency Moody's upgraded Swedbank's long-term ratings to Aa2 from Aa3. The upgrade reflects the bank's consistent work to repair its past Anti-Money Laundering weaknesses, while prudently managing its capital buffers and credit risks.

For more information on the ratings, see page 69 of the Factbook.

Operational risks

Third party disruptions during the quarter impacted the availability of Swedbank's and other financial institutions' services. This led to IT incidents that caused interruptions to channels and payment services. Swedbank strives to continuously ensure a high level of availability.

Cyber risks are a significant societal problem, and the bank continues to prioritise activities aimed at strengthening digital operational resilience, with a special emphasis on cyber security and external fraud risks. The bank has a high capacity and is well-prepared to proactively manage these risks.

Capital and capital adequacy

Capital ratio and capital requirement The Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio was 19.7 per cent (19.7) at the end of the quarter. The total CET1 capital requirement, including Pillar 2 guidance, was 15.2 per cent (15.2) of the risk exposure amount, which resulted in a CET1 capital buffer of 4.5 per cent (4.5). CET1 capital amounted to SEK 175bn (173) and was mainly affected by the quarterly result and estimated dividend.

Change in Common Equity Tier 1 capital (Refers to Swedbank consolidated situation)

Risk Exposure Amount (REA)

REA increased to SEK 889bn (877) in the second quarter.

REA for credit risks rose by SEK 10bn mainly due to increased volume growth, but also due to foreign exchange effects. A higher loss given default (LGD) for corporate loans increased REA as part of Swedbank's planned model updates, partly offset by a reduction of the floor for real estate exposures. Improved ratings for corporate and household customers reduced REA.

REA for market risks rose mainly due to increased interest rate risk in the internal models, while REA for Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA) decreased due to reduced exposures.

REA for Other rose due to the increased article 3 add-on, mainly driven by changes to the customer ratings distribution as well as an increase in volumes.

Change in REA

(Refers to Swedbank consolidated situation)

The leverage ratio was 6.7 per cent (6.6) and thereby exceeds the leverage ratio requirement including Pillar 2 guidance of 3.5 per cent.

Capital and resolution regulations

On account of the guidelines from the European Banking Authority (EBA) and revisions to the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR3), Swedbank is applying for approval of new internal ratings-based (IRB) models. The bank expects the review processes to continue with ongoing approvals throughout 2025 and 2026. Swedbank had already decided on an article 3 add-on equivalent to the bank's assessment of the impact on REA of the introduction of the remaining IRB models. This add-on has been reduced to SEK 6bn in line with the phase-in that has occurred. The Swedish FSA has also introduced a temporary add-on of 1 percentage point in the Pillar 2 requirement (P2R) related to the evaluation of the models.

The CRR3 regulation took effect on 1 January 2025 with a phase-in period through 2032. The European Commission has decided to postpone the market risk requirements by two years until 2027. The capital requirement floor for internal models is not expected to impact Swedbank's capital requirements as long as the Swedish FSA applies risk weight floors to internal lending models for Swedish mortgages and commercial properties. The Swedish FSA has received approval from the European Commission to extend the risk weight floors by two years until 2027.

Investigations

U.S. authorities continue to investigate Swedbank's historical anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing work and historical information disclosures. The investigations, which are being conducted by the Department of Justice (DoJ), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Department of Financial Services in New York (DFS), are continuing and the bank is holding individual discussions with the authorities through its U.S. legal advisors. The investigations are at different stages and the bank cannot at this time determine any financial consequences or when the investigations will be completed.

Other events

On 1 April, Olof Sundblad was appointed Head of Baltic Banking. He has served as Acting Head of the business area since October 2024 and remains a member of the Group Executive Committee.

On 14 May, the Swedish FSA announced that Swedbank has been fined SEK 12.5m for violations of the protective security regulation. The decision concerns documentation shortcomings in the bank's protective security analyses. The documentation shortcomings were remedied more than a year ago. The assessment is that these shortcomings have not affected the bank's protective security.

At an Investor Day on 4 June, Swedbank presented its business priorities and financial plan – Swedbank 15/27. Swedbank's plan is focused on the potential in three main areas: strengthened customer interactions, growing volumes and increased efficiency. Swedbank's target is a return on equity of 15 per cent, supported by a cost-to-income ratio that shall not exceed 0.40 and a target CET1 buffer of 200 basis points.

During the second quarter, Swedbank received a VAT reimbursement of SEK 174m for excess VAT payments for 2018, and during the first quarter a VAT reimbursement of SEK 205m was received for 2017. These reimbursements resulted from the Swedish Tax Agency's approval of a new method for calculating deductible input VAT following amended case law from the Supreme Administrative Court in 2023. The bank has also applied for VAT reimbursements for 2016 and for the period 2019–2023.

The Riksbank has decided on mandatory interest-free deposits from Swedish banks as of 31 October 2025 in order to strengthen the Riksbank's earnings and to build equity.

Events after the end of the period

On 1 July, Swedbank signed an agreement to acquire all the shares in Stabelo Group AB with expected transfer of ownership in autumn 2025 after approval is received from the relevant authorities. Through access to a complementary brand, new technology and new channels for mortgage loans, the acquisition will enable Swedbank to reach more customers in the mortgage market. Stabelo currently has about 30 employees and will continue to operate in the mortgage market under its own brand.

According to a judgment by the Administrative Court of Appeal, Swedbank has been granted the right to use a new method to calculate deductible VAT for the year 2016, in accordance with amended case law from the Supreme Administrative Court. The Swedish Tax Agency subsequently processed the case and Swedbank received a decision from Swedish Tax Agency on 8 July that the bank is entitled to a reimbursement of SEK 197m for tax overpayments.

Swedbank has appointed Martin Noréus as the Group's new Chief Risk Officer. He will take on his role on 1 May 2026, and will join Swedbank's Group Executive Committee on that date. Swedbank's current Chief Risk Officer, Rolf Marquardt, will remain in his role until Martin Noréus takes over, after which he will become a senior advisor.

Business development

Housing prices were stable while mortgage market growth increased slightly. With improved availability for customers, combined with a more proactive approach, the bank's mortgage growth strengthened during the quarter.

At Swedbank's Investor Day, initiatives were launched to retain or increase market shares in mortgages, savings and insurance. Digitalisation and automation, as well as the use of AI, will continue. Customers will increasingly receive personalised, proactive offerings and advice.

Advisory services offered in digital channels have been broadened so that customers can now receive advice and set goals for their pension savings in the app and internet bank and also begin saving. During the quarter, services were launched that make it easier for Swedbank to onboard new small corporates.

During the second quarter, Ung Företagsamhet (UF) Company of the Year competition was arranged, where Swedbank participated on the jury, gave lectures and together with the guests celebrated a 40-year partnership with UF.

Profit was stable. Lower expenses and credit impairments were offset by lower income. Net interest income decreased due to lower lending margins.

Mortgage volume increased slightly. Corporate lending fell by SEK 1bn. Deposit volumes rose by 15bn, driven entirely by household deposits, which were affected by tax reimbursements, while corporate deposits fell slightly.

Net commission income decreased, mainly driven by lower income from asset management, partly offset by higher card commissions.

Expenses decreased, mainly driven by lower staff costs.

Credit impairments amounted to SEK 83m (156) and were mainly explained by rating and stage migrations as well as updated macroeconomic scenarios.

1) Other income includes the items Net insurance, Share of profit or loss of associates and joint ventures and Other income from the Group income statement.

Business development

The recovery of the housing market continued. Purchasing power for housing was strengthened by higher wages, rising employment and falling interest rates. The mortgage portfolio grew and applications for new mortgage loans remained at a high level. The corporate portfolio continued to grow, supported by a recovery in goods exports and by the public sector.

At Swedbank's Investor Day, initiatives to strengthen customer interactions, increase volumes and raise efficiency were presented. Swedbank intends to retain its market share in private lending, ensure a marketleading position in corporate lending, grow the insurance business and increase the number of customers with long-term savings.

The number of users of the Micro Invest option, which rounds up card payments and invests the difference in Swedbank Robur's funds, reached almost 49 000. Private customers can now approve car leasing offerings through the internet bank. In Latvia, corporate customers can be onboarded through an automated process directly after submitting an application.

Swedbank is continuing its social engagement. In Latvia, the bank offers free personal insurance as well as help in managing claims for participants, organisers and volunteers at the Youth Song and Dance Festival.

Profit was unchanged in local currency (EUR). Lower income as well as higher credit impairments and income tax were offset by a lower bank tax. Net interest income fell by 6 per cent (EUR), driven by lower market interest rates.

Lending increased by 3 per cent (EUR). Deposits rose by 1 per cent (EUR), where household deposits were driven by tax reimbursements, holiday pay and dividends.

Net commission income increased by 6 per cent (EUR), driven by seasonally higher card usage.

Expenses decreased by 1 per cent (EUR) due to the previous quarter's donation to the educational foundation established by the bank in Estonia. The decrease was partly offset by higher staff costs following the annual salary increases. Credit impairments amounted to SEK 58m (-52) and were mainly explained by model updates.

Business development

During the quarter lending volumes increased, mainly due to continued high business activity and loan demand in the real estate sector. Lending to other sectors also rose, mainly related to short-term loans. Corporate deposit volumes increased slightly.

Demand for Swedish covered mortgage bonds and credit was good despite a turbulent start to the quarter. Credit risk premiums in SEK and EUR have returned to levels not seen since concerns about a trade war began to impact the markets. Less cyclical credits, such as housing bonds, recovered best, with significant interest from investors. Interest in FX- hedges remains cautious given the uncertainty surrounding Swedish and global interest rate trends. Customers' reallocations from U.S. assets continued during the quarter, which was positive for currency trading.

At Swedbank's Investor Day, initiatives were presented to grow market share in corporate lending through investments in the corporate offering, improved ways of working and higher activity in relation to customers. An already high level of competence and a strong position in key sectors such as real estate and institutions, a

broad local presence, sustainability and existing partnerships will contribute.

Swedbank was the first financial institution to join the Center for Circular Building, a collaboration that supports the building and real estate sector's transition to more efficient use of resources and reduced environmental impact.

Net interest income increased during the quarter, driven by higher deposit margins, which were offset by slightly lower lending margins.

Net commission income decreased mainly due to lower commissions related to asset management and acquisition financing. Card commissions rose on a seasonal basis.

Net gains and losses on financial items increased due to revaluation effects and continued strong FX-trading.

Credit impairments amounted to SEK -4m (-233) and were mainly explained by lower post model expert credit adjustments and lower provisions due to other risk factor changes, which were offset by provisions for individually assessed loans.

Business development

The quarter was dominated by volatility in the financial markets, which increased customers demand for advice. New functionality has been launched in the app and internet bank that enables also customers without concepts to schedule a meeting about savings with a Premium advisor, which has been appreciated in uncertain times.

In times of stock market volatility, discretionary management and advisory management both continued to attract new customers, while existing Private Banking clients increased their investments. Premium and Private Banking continued to deliver a positive underlying net flow for mortgages despite intense competition.

At Swedbank's Investor Day, Premium and Private Banking presented initiatives to connect 25 per cent of concept customers to discretionary portfolio management solutions, enable advisors to serve

50 per cent more customers and double the number of concept customers.

During the quarter, connection rate in the concepts remained high. Corporate clients in particular are increasingly looking for ongoing advice on asset management.

The majority of Premium and Private Banking clients received access to the new savings platform during the quarter.

Profit weakened during the quarter due to decreased income together with unchanged expenses. Net interest income increased slightly due to higher deposit margins and volumes, partly offset by lower lending margins.

Net commission income fell due to the stock market downturn at the beginning of the quarter, which led to lower average assets under management.

Credit impairments amounted to SEK 11m (-6) and were mainly explained by rating and stage migrations.

1) Net interest income and net gains and losses on financial items mainly stem from Group Treasury. Other income mainly refers to income from the savings banks. Expenses mainly relate to Group Products & Advice and Group Staffs and are allocated to a large extent. 2) Other income includes the items Net insurance, Share of profit or loss of associates and joint ventures and Other income from the Group income statement.

Result

During the quarter, profit decreased to SEK 313m (415).

Net interest income fell by SEK 270m, primarily driven by lower compensation from loans to the business areas as well as lower income from central bank deposits, partly mitigated by reduced funding costs as well as lower compensation to the business areas for deposits.

Net gains and losses on financial items amounted to SEK 96m. The change between quarters was mainly related to unrealised revaluation effects of derivatives as well as positive revaluation effects of shareholdings within Group Treasury.

Expenses increased on a seasonal basis, primarily driven by higher IT and consulting expenses, partly offset by lower staff costs.

For the period January – June 2025 a loss after tax of SEK -722m (164) was recognised in other comprehensive income, relating to remeasurements of defined benefit pension plans. As per 30 June 2025 the discount rate used to calculate the closing pension obligation was 3.70 per cent, compared with 3.86 per cent per 31 December 2024. The inflation assumption was 1.58 per cent compared with 1.72 per cent per 31 December 2024. The fair value of plan assets decreased during 2025 by SEK 723 m. In total, at 30 June 2025 the fair value of plan assets exceeded the obligation for funded defined benefit pension plans by SEK 2 958m, therefore the funded plans are presented as an asset.

For January – June 2025 an exchange rate difference of SEK -2 634m (1 450) was recognised for the Group's foreign net investments in subsidiaries. The loss related to subsidiaries mainly arose because the Swedish krona strengthened against the euro during the period. In addition, an exchange rate difference of SEK -19m (13) for the Group's foreign net investments in associates and joint ventures is included in Share of other comprehensive income of associates and joint ventures. The total loss of SEK -2 653m is not taxable. Most of the Group's foreign net investments are hedged against currency risk resulting in a loss after tax of SEK 1 799m (-950) for the hedging instruments.

Note 1 Accounting policies

The interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The condensed consolidated financial statements have also been prepared in accordance with the recommendations and statements of the Swedish Corporate Reporting Board, the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies and the directives of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (SFSA).

The Parent Company report has been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies, the directives of the SFSA and recommendation RFR 2 of the Swedish Corporate Reporting Board.

The accounting policies applied in the interim report conform to those applied in the Annual and Sustainability Report for 2024, which was prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting

Standards (IFRS accounting standards) as adopted by the European Union and interpretations thereof.

The financial statements are presented in Swedish kronor and all figures are rounded to millions of kronor (SEKm) unless otherwise indicated. No adjustments for rounding are made, therefore summation differences may occur.

Changes in accounting regulations

Amended regulations that are applicable from 1 January 2025 did not have a significant impact on the Group's financial position, results, cash flows or disclosures.

Note 2 Critical accounting estimates

Presentation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the executive management to make judgments and estimates that affect the recognised amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the reporting date as well as the recognised income and expenses during the reporting period. The executive management continuously evaluates these judgments and estimates, including assessing control over investment funds, the fair value of financial instruments, provisions for credit impairment, impairment testing of goodwill, provisions and contingent liabilities, defined

benefit pension provisions, insurance contracts and deferred taxes.

Post-model expert credit adjustments to the credit impairment provisions continue to be necessary, given the geopolitical and economic uncertainties. Further information is provided in Note 10.

Beyond this, there have been no significant changes to the basis upon which the critical accounting judgments and estimates have been determined compared with 31 December 2024.

Note 3 Changes in the Group structure

No significant changes to the Group structure occurred during the first half year of 2025.

During the second quarter 2025, an allocation model regarding fund savings between Swedish banking and Premium and Private Banking was updated, why comparatives have been restated. The change as impacted net commission income, other expenses and tax expense

1) Other income includes the items Net insurance, Share of profit or loss of associates and joint ventures and Other income from the Group income statement.

2) There has been a reclassification of commission income from row Asset management and custody to Insurance within row Other commission income. The figures above have been restated. 3) Other commission income includes Service concepts, Insurance, Securities and corporate finance and Other, see Note 6.

Operating segments accounting policies

The operating segment report is based on Swedbank's accounting policies, organisation and management accounts. Market-based transfer prices are applied between operating segments, while all expenses for Group functions and Group staffs are transfer priced at cost to the operating segments. Cross-border transfer pricing is applied according to OECD transfer pricing guidelines.

The Group's equity attributable to shareholders is allocated to each operating segment based on capital adequacy rules and estimated capital requirements based on the bank's Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP).

The return on allocated equity for the operating segments is calculated based on profit for the period attributable to the shareholders for the operating segment, in relation to average monthly allocated equity for the operating segment. For periods shorter than one year the key ratio is annualised.

During the first half year of 2025, no organizational changes between Swedbank's operating segments were made.

Calculation of credit impairment provisions

The measurement of expected credit losses is described in Note G3 section 3.1 Credit risk on pages 244-249 of the 2024 Annual and Sustainability Report.

Measurement of 12-month and lifetime expected credit losses

Geopolitical tensions, supply chain disruptions and increased global tariffs result in uncertainty regarding potential deteriorations in credit quality, beyond what is currently captured in the quantitative risk models. Therefore, post-model expert credit adjustments continue to be made to capture increased credit risk, such as potential future rating and stage migrations.

Post-model expert credit adjustments amounted to SEK 594m (SEK 715m at 31 March 2025, SEK 720m at 31 December 2024) and are allocated as SEK 365m in stage 1 and SEK 229m in stage 2 (SEK 400m in stage 1, SEK 315m in stage 2 at 31 March 2025). Customers and industries are reviewed and analysed considering the current situation, particularly in more vulnerable sectors. During the second quarter, the largest releases of postmodel expert credit adjustments were in Property management sector, where the risks are increasingly captured in the macroeconomic scenarios and the quantitative risk models. The most significant postmodel adjustments at 30 June 2025 were in the Manufacturing, Property management and Agriculture, forestry, fishing sectors.

The tables below show the quantitative thresholds used by the Group for assessing a significant increase in credit risk, namely:

  • Changes in the 12-month PD and internal risk rating grades, which have been applied for the portfolio of loans originated before 1 January 2018. For instance, for exposures originated with risk grades 0 to 5, a downgrade by 1 grade from initial recognition is assessed as a significant change in credit risk. Alternatively, for exposures originated with risk grades 18 to 21, a downgrade by 5 to 8 grades from initial recognition is considered significant. Internal risk ratings are assigned according to the risk management framework outlined in Note G3 Risks in the 2024 Annual and Sustainability Report.
  • Changes in the lifetime PD, which have been applied for the portfolio of loans originated on or after 1 January 2018. For instance, for exposures originated with risk grades 0 to 5, a 50 per cent increase in the lifetime PD from initial recognition is assessed as a significant change in credit risk.

Alternatively, for exposures originated with risk grades 18 to 21, an increase of 200-300 per cent from initial recognition is considered significant except for Swedish mortgages where an absolute 12-month PD threshold is also applied.

These limits reflect a lower sensitivity to change in the low-risk end of the risk scale and a higher sensitivity to change in the high-risk end of the scale. The Group has performed a sensitivity analysis on how credit impairment provisions would change if thresholds applied were increased or decreased. A lower threshold would increase the number of loans that have migrated from Stage 1 to Stage 2 and also increase the estimated credit impairment provisions. A higher threshold would have the opposite effect.

The tables below disclose the impacts of this sensitivity analysis on the credit impairment provisions. Positive amounts represent higher credit impairment provisions that would be recognised.

The US tariffs and related policy uncertainty are primarily expected to affect the US economy, but will also continue to weigh on the global economy. We expect uncertainty to diminish towards the end of the year. At the same time, the European economy is being supported by increased investments in defence and infrastructure. In China, consumer confidence remains subdued despite various stimulus measures, and the economic outlook looks weak.

Growth in the US has started to slow, but inflation is likely to rise as tariffs are raised. This puts the Federal Reserve in a difficult position and policy rate cuts are being delayed. Capital flows from the US as a result of policy uncertainty have weighed on the dollar this year – a trend we believe will continue. In the euro area, inflation has returned to target and the ECB is expected to continue to cut its policy rate after the summer.

The recovery in the Swedish economy is taking a break. Growth turned negative again in the first quarter of 2025 and indicators point to continued weak growth. Once uncertainty about US trade policy eases, we expect higher real household incomes and lower interest rates to contribute to stronger domestic demand. Inflation has been subdued and we believe that the Riksbank will lower the policy rate to 1.75 per cent this autumn. The labour market situation is not expected to improve significantly until next year.

Despite strong or upward trends in most sectors in the Baltic economies, the outlook is worsened by the tariffs. None of the countries is particularly dependent on direct exports to the US, but increased competition in other markets could dampen the recovery for the manufacturing industry. Lower interest rates, together with supportive fiscal policies, are expected to contribute to boost private and public investment. All three Baltic countries plan to increase defence spending to 4–5 per cent of GDP by 2026.

Sensitivity

The table below shows the credit impairment provisions that would result from the negative and positive scenarios, which are considered reasonably possible, being assigned a probability weight of 100 per cent. Post-model expert credit adjustments are assumed to be constant in the results.

Swedish risk tax on credit institutions is levied at 0.06 percent of the credit institution's total adjusted debt at the beginning of the financial year.

The Lithuanian solidarity contribution tax is temporary from May 2023 until year end 2025. The tax rate is 60 per cent and is applied to the part of the adjusted net interest income earned during the period which exceeds the average net interest income for the years 2019-2022 by more than 50 per cent. The reduced solidarity contribution tax is the result of decreased adjusted net interest income during the period compared to average net interest income during the comparison period.

The Latvian mortgage levy that applied in 2024 has been replaced in 2025 with a solidarity contribution tax. The tax rate is 60 per cent and is applied to the part of the adjusted net interest income earned during the period which exceeds the average net interest income for the years 2018-2022 by more than 50 per cent.

Note 21 Financial instruments recognised at fair value

The determination of fair value, the valuation hierarchy and the valuation process for fair value measurements in Level 3 are described in the Annual and Sustainability Report 2024, note G47 Fair value of financial instruments.

The financial instruments are distributed in three levels depending on the degree of observable market data in the valuation and activity in the market.

  • Level 1: Unadjusted quoted price on an active market.
  • Level 2: Adjusted quoted price or valuation model with valuation parameters derived from an active market.
  • Level 3: Valuation model where significant valuation parameters are non-observable and based on internal assumptions.

The following tables present fair values of financial instruments recognised at fair value split between the three valuation hierarchy levels.

Financial instruments are transferred to or from level 3 depending on whether the internal assumptions have changed in significance to the valuation.

Level 3 mainly comprises strategic unlisted shares. These include holdings in VISA Inc. C shares, which are subject to selling restrictions until June 2028 and under certain conditions may have to be returned. Liquid quotes are not available for these shares, therefore the

fair value is established with significant elements of Swedbank's own internal assumptions. The carrying amount of the holdings in Visa Inc. C amounted as per 30 June 2025 to SEK 350m (SEK 344m 31 December 2024).

During the quarter shares in Kepler Cheuvreux were sold for SEK 223m.

In the Group's insurance operations, fund units are held in which the customers have chosen to invest their insurance savings. The holdings are reported in the balance sheet as financial assets where the customers bear the investment risk and are normally measured at

fair value according to level 1, because the units are traded in an active market. The Group's obligations to insurance savers are reported as financial liabilities where the customers bear the investment risk because it is the customers who bear the entire market value change of the assets. The liabilities are normally measured at fair value according to level 2.

During the first quarter 2022, trading was closed in whole or in part in Russia and Eastern Europe targeted funds. Remaining unit holdings, only correlated to the Russia funds, and related liabilities to the insurance savers have been measured at fair value according to level 3 and been measured at value SEK 0m.

1) The pledge is defined as the borrower's nominal debt including accrued interest and refers to the loans of the total available collateral that are used as the pledge at each point in time.

Swedbank is cooperating with authorities in the United States who are conducting investigations into Swedbank's historic AML compliance and the Group's response thereto, as well as related issues involving the Group's anti-money laundering controls and certain individuals and entities who may at some time have been customers of the Group. Investigations by the Department of Justice (DoJ), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Department of Financial Services (DFS) in New York are ongoing.

The timing of the completion of the investigations is still unknown and the outcomes are still uncertain. It is therefore not possible to reliably estimate the amount of any potential settlement or fines, which could be material.

On 20 December 2024, the Swedish Pensions Agency filed a SEK 2 790m lawsuit against Swedbank in the Stockholm District Court for Swedbank's role as a custodian of the Optimus High Yield fund during the period 2012–2015. Swedbank contests the Swedish Pensions Agency's claim and has not allocated any provisions for the Swedish Pensions Agency's suit.

Swedbank has applied for a VAT refund for the years 2016 and 2019-2023. This is following the Swedish Tax Agency's approval of a new method for calculating deductible VAT, based on a change in legal precedent from the Supreme Administrative Court in 2023. Swedbank has not yet received a response.

Note 23 Offsetting financial assets and liabilities

The tables below present recognised financial instruments that have been offset in the balance sheet under IAS 32 and those that are subject to legally enforceable master netting or similar agreements but do not qualify for offset. Such financial instruments relate to derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, securities settlements, securities borrowing and lending transactions. Collateral amounts represent financial instruments or cash collateral received or pledged for transactions that are subject to

a legally enforceable master netting or similar agreements and which allow for the netting of obligations against the counterparty in the event of a default. Collateral amounts are limited to the amount of the related instruments presented in the balance sheet; therefore any over-collateralisation is not included. Amounts that are not offset in the balance sheet are presented as a reduction to the financial assets or liabilities in order to derive net asset and net liability exposure.

Note 25 Internal capital requirement

This note provides information on the internal capital assessment according to chapter 8, section 5 of the SFSA's regulation on prudential requirements and capital buffers (2014:12). The internal capital assessment is published in the interim report according to chapter 8, section 4 of the SFSA's regulation and general advice on annual reports from credit institutions and investment firms (2008:25).

A bank must identify, measure and manage the risks with which its activities are associated and have sufficient capital to cover these risks. The purpose of the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) is to ensure that the bank is sufficiently capitalised to cover its risks and to conduct and develop its business activities. Swedbank applies its own models and processes to evaluate its capital need for all relevant risks. The models that serve as a basis for the internal capital assessment evaluate the need for economic capital over a one-year horizon at a 99.9 per cent confidence level for each type of risk. Diversification effects between various types of risks are not taken into account in the calculation of economic capital.

As a complement to the economic capital calculation, scenario-based simulations and stress tests are conducted at least once a year. The analyses provide an overview of the most important risks Swedbank is exposed to by quantifying their impact on the income statement and balance sheet as well as the own funds and risk-weighted assets. The purpose is to ensure efficient use of capital. This methodology serves as a basis of proactive risk and capital management.

As of 30 June 2025, the internal capital assessment for Swedbank's consolidated situation amounted to SEK 62.2bn (SEK 65.5bn as of 31 December 2024). Swedbank's internal capital assessment using its own models is not comparable with the estimated capital requirement that the SFSA releases quarterly and does not consider the SFSA risk-weight floor for Swedish mortgages.

In addition to what is stated in this interim report, risk management and capital adequacy according to the Basel III framework are described in more detail in Swedbank's Annual and Sustainability Report 2024 as well as in Swedbank's yearly Risk Management and Capital Adequacy Report, available on http://www.swedbank.com.

Note 26 Risks and uncertainties

Swedbank's earnings are affected by changes in the global marketplace over which it has no control, including macroeconomic factors such as GDP, asset prices and unemployment, as well as changes in interest rates, equity prices and exchange rates.

Geopolitical situation

The geopolitical situation remains uncertain due to continued unrest in the Middle East, the ongoing Russian aggression against Ukraine, and increasingly protectionist trade policies. Swedbank has low to negligible direct exposures to the counterparts at war and is well positioned to manage the indirect risks that may arise from the heightened geopolitical uncertainty. Trade restrictions such as tariffs and other trade barriers have significant direct and indirect effects on the economies of our home markets, and consequently also on Swedbank's borrowers.

Economic outlook

Economic growth in the Nordic and Baltic regions is showing signs of recovery, although shifts in global trade policy and various geopolitical tensions increases the downside risks.

Interest rate trends and monetary policy

Global inflation is decreasing, and several central banks, including the Riksbank and the European Central Bank (ECB) have begun lowering interest rates. At the same time, increased uncertainty due to new trade tariffs and unrest in the Middle East has complicated the task for central banks and

created uncertainty about the future economic outlook.

Challenges and risk in digitalisation

During the second quarter 2025, the accessibility of Swedbank's services, as well as those of other financial institutions, was adversely affected by disruptions mainly among third party providers. This resulted in several IT incidents that caused interruptions in channels and payment services. Swedbank continuously works to ensure high availability.

Cyber risks are a significant societal concern, and Swedbank continues to prioritise activities aimed at strengthening digital operational resilience, with a particular focus on cyber risks and external fraud risks. Swedbank is closely monitoring these risks and has a high capacity to proactively manage them.

Anti-money laundering and Counter terrorist financing

For risks related to the ongoing investigations of authorities in US related to historic anti-money laundering compliance and response related to antimoney laundering controls, please refer to Note 22 Assets pledged, contingent liabilities and commitments.

Tax

The tax area is complex and there can be a scope for different interpretations. Practices and interpretations of applicable laws can be changed, sometimes retroactively. In the event that the tax authorities and, where appropriate, the tax courts decide on a different interpretation than what Swedbank initially made, it could impact the Group's operations, results and financial position.

In addition to what is stated in this interim report, detailed descriptions are provided in Swedbank's 2024 Annual and Sustainability report and in the disclosures in the Risk Management and Capital Adequacy reports available at www.swedbank.com.

Alternative performance measures

Swedbank prepares its financial statements in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the EU, as set out in Note 1. The interim report includes a number of alternative performance measures, which exclude certain items that management believes are not representative of the underlying/ongoing performance of the business. Therefore the alternative performance measures provide more comparative information between periods. Management believes that inclusion of these measures provides information to the readers that enable comparability between periods.

and the costs of financing.

Review report

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Swedbank AB (publ) as of 30 June 2025 and the six-month period then ended. The Board of Directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act for credit institutions and securities companies. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act for credit institutions and securities companies, regarding the Group, and with the Annual Accounts Act for credit institutions and securities companies, regarding the Parent Company.
