Diverging from their recognition in our (IFRS) financial statements, non-strategic investments, amortisation of intangible assets arising from acquisitions, expenses related to the accounting treatment of acquisitions, restructuring charges and other incidental items are shown separately.
Thomas Vanderlinden will join the Management Board from 1 September 2025, taking on responsibility for Private Clients Belgium.
Amounts in the performance report may not add up due to being rounded up or down. The total amounts may therefore deviate from the sum of the parts. Percentage changes are based on the unrounded figures.
Some amounts differ from previously published reports; in these cases, explanations are given in the footnotes. We have implemented a change in our organisational structure, whereby Payments has been transferred from Investment Management Clients to Private Clients Netherlands. This affects FTE numbers.
When reporting our capital figures, we distinguish between performance-related and regulatory measures. For performance-related figures, we apply the Basel IV fully loaded approach. For all regulatory data, we use the Basel IV phase-in framework.

Management Board responsibility statement
In the first half of 2025, markets were shaped by four central themes. Firstly, they were heavily influenced by the US government's tariff announcements and ensuing negotiations. This led to heightened uncertainty, particularly on the outlook for inflation and global economic growth. Secondly, central banks in both the US (Federal Reserve) and the eurozone (ECB) responded with differing monetary policy decisions to these uncertainties and diverging paths for inflation and growth: the Fed kept its policy rate unchanged in view of persistent inflation risks, while the ECB continued its rate-cutting cycle, which began in 2024. Thirdly, rapid advances in AI continued to drive market narratives, but concerns around energy availability and infrastructure added another layer of complexity for investors. Lastly, across Europe, increased government spending on defence became a notable theme, impacting both fiscal outlooks and market expectations.
These themes contributed to high volatility across equity and fixed income markets.
Equity markets started the year strongly, but the US government's tariff announcement on 2 April triggered a broad sell-off. Subsequent negotiations, including a delay announced on 9 April, spurred a recovery. After this, markets appeared increasingly resilient to tariff-related headlines, allowing several indices to reach new record highs by mid-year. Robust US labour market data and solid corporate earnings provided further support. In the bond markets, the anticipation of Fed rate cuts led to falling US yields for much of the first half. However, fiscal concerns generated brief reluctance towards US Treasuries in April and May. In the eurozone, ECB rate cuts pushed German two-year yields lower, while announcements of significant fiscal expansion – especially on defence – in Germany led to rising ten-year yields. Currency markets were also notably impacted. Lingering doubts about US assets resulted in the US dollar turning in its weakest first half-year performance since the early 1970s.
While swings in quarterly US GDP grabbed headlines, most equity investors largely looked beyond these figures, focusing instead on the broader policy and structural trends shaping market sentiment.
In the first half of 2025, we achieved solid financial and operational results, continuing our growth path and the successful execution of our strategy. We achieved a net profit of €67.8 million, down compared with €74.5 million in H1 2024, primarily due to lower interest income. However, total client assets increased to €169.1 billion, with assets under management (AuM) reaching €150.6 billion. Net AuM inflow amounted to €4.6 billion, with significant contributions from Private Clients Netherlands (€1.7 billion) and Private Clients Belgium (€1.0 billion). These inflows from both new and existing clients demonstrate strong commercial momentum and organic growth, and are a sign that in these turbulent times that was the first half of 2025 they were keeping their eye firmly on their long-term objectives. Investment Management Clients experienced a
first half of mixed results. New pension mandates in the Netherlands, and particularly in the United Kingdom, contributed to AuM inflow. At the same time, there was outflow from several of our listed investment strategies. Highlights for H1 2025 included the opening of a new office in Knokke-Heist, underscoring our commitment to being close to clients and expanding in the attractive Belgian private banking market. The integration of Robeco's online investment platforms into Evi was successfully completed, providing a seamless digital experience for all Evi clients.We also received international recognition for our application of innovative technologies in private banking, winning three awards at the Professional Wealth Management Wealth Tech Awards 2025.
We launched our third European private equity fund and a new fund providing private clients with access to private equity through secondary markets. We experienced outflows in some of our listed investment strategies, most notably our credit and small-cap strategies.
We continued to make progress towards our strategic objectives and leveraged synergies between client segments. A notable example is the acquisition of Forum Estates by Cibus Nordic Real Estate, where Van Lanschot Kempen Investment Banking acted as financial adviser, and Mercier Van Lanschot facilitated the handling of the transfer of certificates, resulting in an inflow of approximately €200 million in assets under administration.
The second half of 2025 is expected to remain volatile, requiring agility. We are confident that our strategy – anchored in an integrated approach, digital strength, and client focus – positions us well to respond. Our goal remains unchanged: to be the best wealth manager for our clients.
To monitor whether we are on track to deliver on our ambitions and create long-term value, we set financial and non-financial targets. These are based on industry trends and developments, stakeholder expectations, client needs and strategic relevance.
Our KPIs are focused on value creation, both financial and non-financial. The table below shows our targets and performance on these KPIs in the first half of 2025 and for full-year 2024.

At our Investor Day on 20 June 2024, we updated our financial targets for 2027. At the end of June 2025, our CET1 ratio (Basel IV fully loaded) was down to 18.2%, mainly as a result of the €1.40 per share capital return paid in June 2025 (CET1 impact -1.3 percentage points), but still exceeds our target. For CET1 developments, see page 21. The 15.8% return on CET1 was marginally below our envisioned growth path for achieving our 2027 target of >18%. Our cost/income ratio of 71.8% fell short of our target range, primarily due to lower interest income and an increase in staff costs. In terms of our assets under management (AuM), we have set a target of 10% average annual growth and the first half saw net inflows of €4.6 billion (+3.1%) and negative market performance of €3.3 billion (-2.2%), resulting in a net AuM growth of 0.9% to €150.6 billion.
As a specialist wealth manager, we depend on hiring and retaining knowledgeable, experienced and professional staff. To that end, we measure our employees' satisfaction via a periodic employee engagement survey, which includes a variety of questions that result in an employee engagement score (EES). Our score of 90% comfortably exceeds our target of >80%.
We aim for a diverse workforce in the broadest sense. We measure gender balance and aim for at least 30% women and 30% men among our senior staff members by 2029. Currently, 78% of senior staff members are male and 22% are female, in line with our envisioned path towards achieving our target. We strive for equal pay for equal work and have set a target to maintain our corrected gender pay gap below 2%. The equal pay analysis conducted in the first half of 2025 confirmed that our corrected gender pay gap remained stable at 1.4%, in line with our objective.
1 The Net Promoter Score (NPS) for client segment Investment Management Clients is measured once every two years, for Investment Banking Clients and Private Clients Belgium once every year.
We focus on reducing direct emissions via our own organisation to become net zero in our own operations by 2030. To this end, we have committed to an average annual reduction target for our carbon footprint per FTE of 8% per year (compared with base year 2019). With an annualised carbon footprint of 1.34 tonnes CO2e per FTE per year in H1 2025, we achieved the target of <1.50 tonnes for 2025.
We aim to become a net-zero wealth manager by 2050. In pursuit of this goal, we have set a target to reduce the annual weighted average carbon intensity (WACI) of our discretionary AuM by 7% per year for Scope 1 and 2. For H1 2025, the average annual reduction stood at 14%, well above our target.
The relationship with our clients is one of our most important assets. Client satisfaction is measured, among other means, by way of NPS, specifically via the Relationship NPS,2 which indicates the percentage of promoters of the organisation less the percentage of detractors. In H1 2025, Private Clients Netherlands' NPS stood at 41, well above our target. Clients indicated that they valued our personal approach combined with sound advice. At 3, Evi's NPS is below our target, as it was negatively influenced by volatile markets in the first half of 2025.
Our wealth management solutions aim to deliver outperformance in the long term. In H1 2025, the three-year average performance of our managed propositions relative to the benchmark stood at -1.1%. This figure is calculated by comparing the absolute performance of three of our main discretionary solutions over the last three years with their respective benchmarks. This remains a focus point for us and we are committed to improve future results.
We strive to operate in an ethical manner and encourage our employees to behave ethically and with integrity. We monitor whether our employees positively evaluate our culture regarding ethical behaviour and integrity via quarterly employee surveys. Employees are asked to evaluate whether we operate with integrity in both our internal and external dealings, and if they feel they could report dishonest or unethical practices without fear of reprisal. We also ask if employees believe our company culture holds everyone to the same standards of ethical behaviour and promotes transparent communication. The outcomes are benchmarked against other financial services firms and were above the industry average, in line with our target.
2 Relationship NPS differs from Transactional NPS, which is also commonly used. Transactional NPS measures client satisfaction after a single transaction and typically leads to a higher score than Relationship NPS.

Net result for the first half of 2025 amounted to €67.8 million, a 9% fall compared with the same period last year. The first half of the year was marked by significant market volatility, largely attributable to the US government's tariff announcements and the ensuing negotiations, which had a considerable impact on financial markets. While net inflows at Private Clients Netherlands and Private Clients Belgium were strong, overall growth in AuM was limited due to a disappointing market performance. The combination of robust inflows and weaker markets resulted in marginal AuM growth. Throughout the period, fluctuations in AuM levels put pressure on commission income. Nonetheless, our current AuM position provides a solid foundation for the second half of the year and highlights the continued commercial momentum in our Private Clients segments.
Our cost/income ratio fell outside the 2027 target range, driven by several factors. Interest income declined, primarily due to reduced interest margins. Additionally, income from securities and associates was down as no book profits were realised in the first half of 2025. These effects were partially offset by an increase in commission income. Operating expenses were up 5%, mainly as a result of a 7% rise in staff costs. In line with our growth strategy, we continued to invest in our people. Higher staff costs reflect a year-end salary increase of 3.5% in the Netherlands and the addition of 54 FTEs (compared with year-end 2024), primarily to strengthen our commercial departments (41 FTEs). A release of €3.1 million in loan loss provisions highlights the strong credit quality of our loan book and the continued benign macroeconomic environment. The CET1 ratio Basel IV fully loaded decreased to 18.2% (Basel IV phase-in: 18.3%; and year-end 2024: 19.3%), mainly as a result of a capital return of €1.40 per share (impact: -1.3 percentage points).

4 Return on CET1 capital and return on equity are calculated based on underlying (annualised) net results attributable to shareholders.

This segment includes our private banking activities in the Netherlands and Switzerland, as well as our online investment platform Evi. It achieved an operating result before tax of €57.5 million (H1 2024: €71.6 million).
The segment achieved a €1.7 billion net inflow, with existing clients investing more and new clients entrusting their wealth to us. These inflows are driven by various developments, including our personal approach and continued high client satisfaction, reflected in a high NPS of 41 (2024: 45), company sales and the growing wealth management market.
Interest income came down significantly compared with H1 2024, reflecting developments in the interest environment, net interest margins on savings and deposits showed an – expected – decline.
Private Clients Netherlands' total commission income grew to €124.8 million. This growth stemmed from higher AuM on the back of continuing high net inflows and was further supported by the market performance relative to H1 2024. The margin on AuM, including Evi, remained stable at 55 bps in H1 2025 (FY 2024: 55 bps).
Operating expenses were up by 7%, mainly due to an increase in staff, required to serve the growing number of clients and prepare the organisation for further growth. Total operating expenses are under control and grew only modestly compared with H2 2024 (+3%). As always, we are maintaining a strong focus on cost levels, while also investing in our workforce.

Client assets at Private Clients Netherlands increased by 1% in H1 2025 to €58.7 billion. Net AuM inflows were again strong, at €1.7 billion, of which c. 50% came from new clients. Our net inflow consisted of 48% in non-discretionary management and 52% in discretionary management, whereas in H1 2024 the net inflow consisted of 77% nondiscretionary management and 23% in discretionary management. Market performance was negative, at -€0.5 billion.
Non-discretionary management
At the end of H1 2025, assets under discretionary management made up 41% of total AuM; non-discretionary management amounted to 59%, the same as in 2024.
In H1 2025, AuM at Evi decreased by 4% to €7.0 billion (2024: €7.2 billion) as a result of negative market performance and modest net outflows, mainly driven by regular consumption.
Total AuM at Private Clients Switzerland amounted to €2.9 billion (2024: €2.8 billion).
There was an outflow of €0.5 billion in savings and deposits, with Q1 2025 showing a typical pattern of conversion of cash into AuM as seen over the last years. We also observed a conversion of term deposits into savings.
This segment includes our private banking activities in Belgium, where we operate under the Mercier Van Lanschot brand. Compared with H1 2024, the operating result before tax almost doubled to €29.2 million (H1 2024: €16.7 million), driven by higher commission income. There is strong commercial momentum in the attractive Belgian private banking market. This translates into continued growth, with a high net inflow of €1.0 billion in H1 2025. Despite a negative market performance, AuM growth led to a 23% increase in commission income. Private Clients Belgium's total commission income came in at €61.1 million. Its margin on AuM remained stable at 80 bps in H1 2025 (FY 2024: 80 bps). Interest income was up compared with H1 2024, primarily as a result of increasing volumes on securities cash accounts.
Operating expenses rose by 9%, mainly due to an increase in staff, required to serve our growing number of clients.
We grew our organisation in line with our scalable operating model, reflected in an improved cost/income ratio of 49% (H1 2024: 56%). We continue to prioritise cost management, while maintaining the high level of client service that underpins our commercial success. To make this growth possible, we are focusing on optimising the composition of our workforce.
In the second quarter of 2025, we improved the method for calculating AuM inflow as established when integrating Mercier Vanderlinden and Van Lanschot Belgium. It was determined that a portion of the market performance had previously been incorrectly reported as AuM inflow. The adjustment entails a correction of €0.4 billion in 2024 and €0.1 billion in the first quarter of 2025, and only applies to the Private Clients Belgium segment. The total reported AuM remains unchanged.

Client assets at Private Clients Belgium increased by 6% in H1 2025 to €17.4 billion, as a result of strong net AuM inflow of €1.0 billion, c. 50% of which came from new clients. Our net inflow consisted of discretionary management (85%) and non-discretionary management (15%). Market performance was negative at -€0.2 billion. At the end of H1 2025, assets under discretionary management made up 78% of total AuM (2024: 77%) and assets under nondiscretionary management amounted to 22%. (2024: 23%)
This segment includes our investment management activities in Western Europe. Investment Management Clients is an active investment management boutique with expertise in small caps, credits, and private equity, serving clients with focused investment strategies and fiduciary management services. Investment Management Clients serves our private banking clients in the Netherlands, Belgium and Switzerland, fiduciary clients in the Netherlands and the UK, and wholesale clients in Western Europe.
The segment achieved an operating profit before tax of €12.1 million (H1 2024: €13.7 million). Growth in commission income came on the back of net inflows within fiduciary management and our private equity proposition, offsetting the impact of negative market performance and outflows within investment strategies. We also realised net revenue growth within fiduciary management services both in the Netherlands and the UK. This, in combination with
successfully on-boarding new clients and a higher uptake of our investment products through effective cross-selling and up-selling, resulted in operating income of €67.0 million, up by 6% compared with H1 2024. During H1 2025, our alternative investment offering was further strengthened by the successful launch of our third European private equity strategy, which secured €388 million of committed capital. Once called, this capital will result in AuM inflow.
Investment Management Clients' H1 2025 commission income rose to €66.4 million, (H1 2024: €62.4 million). The margin remained stable at 15 bps (FY 2024: 15 bps).
Operating expenses increased by 11% compared with H1 2024, mainly due to strategic investments in additional staff needed to serve our growing client base and prepare for future growth. We maintain a strong focus on cost levels, and our team continuously assesses our investment strategies to ensure a distinctive, future-fit value proposition.

Fiduciary management Investment strategies Alternative investment strategies
Fiduciary management showed net inflows of €2.9 billion from new clients in the Netherlands and the UK as well as existing clients who have entrusted us with more of their assets. This was partially offset by a negative market performance of -€2.6 billion.
Investment strategies AuM decreased by €1.4 billion in the first half of 2025. This was mainly due to a net outflow of €1.3 billion, driven by outflows in small caps and credits as well as the liquidation of our sustainable equity strategy, which resulted in an outflow of €0.6 billion. In addition, there was a negative market performance of -€0.1 billion. Alternative investment strategies showed a net inflow of €0.3 billion, mainly related to new product offerings for new and existing fiduciary clients, complemented by a positive market performance of €0.1 billion.
AuA showed a net inflow of €0.4 billion, reflecting the fact that more independent asset managers are choosing our distinctive platform, created to fully support independent wealth manager services.

The Other segment comprises activities in our management book, interest rate and liquidity risk management, structured products and staff departments, as well as the activities of Van Lanschot Participaties and Bolster investment funds and other consolidated investments such as Allshare. The segment achieved an operating profit before tax of -€9.1 million (H1 2024: -€3.8 million).
The decrease compared with H1 2024 is mainly due to valuation gains and dividends from our participating interests (H1 2025: -€2.1 million; H1 2024: €2.1 million) and group function costs that are not allocated to the client segments. Finally, the results from non-strategic investments (NSI) amounted to €0.3 million, notably lower than the €3.9 million recorded in H1 2024.

Commission income grew by 11% compared with H1 2024 to €279.6 million and accounted for 77% of our total operating income. Management fees increased by 12%, reflecting the growth in AuM (+€11.3 billion compared with 30 June 2024). This was a result of net inflows and positive market performance. Other commissions grew by 6%, mainly on the back of improved M&A activity at Investment Banking Clients.
Annualised recurring securities commission income increased by 9% compared with H1 2024 as a result of AuM growth. Annualised recurring securities commission is determined by multiplying AuM on the reporting date by the management fee per client to arrive at the expected annualised management fee, assuming that AuM remains unchanged. Expected annual transaction fees related to these client portfolios are added to this number.

In the first half of 2025, interest income dropped to €76.1 million, 17% down on the €92.2 million realised in H1 2024. This was due to lower interest margins driven by lower ECB rates. The ECB's rate cuts were only partly reflected in lower client interest rates on savings and deposits. This had a dampening effect on the interest margin.
The interest margin (12-month moving average) declined by 15 bps compared with the level at the end of H1 2024 (112 bps), to 97 bps at the end of H1 2025.
Compared with the end of 2024, total client savings and deposits fell by €0.5 billion to €12.3 billion, as clients transferred their wealth to investments; however, average volumes for H1 2025 were at a comparable level to those in H1 2024. In addition to the transfer to investments, there was also a noticeable shift from term deposits to savings.
Our total loan portfolio grew by €0.1 billion, reaching €9.5 billion, primarily due to higher new mortgage business as well as an increase in Lombard loans and current accounts.

No book profit from sales of our participating interests was realised in the first half of 2025.

Total operating expenses rose by 5% to €261.6 million (H1 2024: €248.2 million), mainly driven by an increase in staff costs.
Staff costs were up by €11.1 million in H1 2025. This cost increase is primarily attributable to a rise in FTEs. The number of staff grew to 2,072 FTEs (HY 2024: 1,937 FTEs; YE 2024: 2,018 FTEs). Moreover, there was a general 3.5% increase in fixed salaries at the start of 2025. This pay rise was granted to all employees on standard contracts in the Netherlands.
Other administrative expenses rose marginally to €74.8 million, mainly due to higher marketing expenses.
At €10.3 million, this represents an increase of €1.5 million compared with H1 2024, due to the accelerated depreciation of the current main office in Amsterdam, as a result ofthe upcoming relocation.
The cost/income ratio – i.e. the ratio of operating expenses to income from operating activities – stood at 71.8% in H1 2025 (69.0% in H1 2024). The focus continues to be on cost control and scalability. However, the cost/income ratio has moved outside the 2027 target range, primarily due to lower interest income and increased staff costs.

The amortisation of intangible assets arising from acquisitions decreased to €7.1 million in H1 2025 (H1 2024: €8.1 million), as the amortisation related to the acquisition of Staalbankiers was finalised at the end of 2024.
In 2023, we completed the acquisition of Mercier Vanderlinden and in 2024 that of Accuro. As a consequence of the agreed transaction structures, certain elements from the transactions are treated as special items and are included in the expenses related to the accounting treatment of acquisitions.
This item decreased to €2.0 million in H1 2025 (H1 2024: €3.2 million). The higher figure in H1 2024 was primarily the result of higher IFRS 2 expenses related to the accounting treatment of the Accuro acquisition.
We recognised €1.1 million in special items in H1 2025 for restructuring charges. This mainly concerns integration costs relating to the acquisition of Robeco's online investment platform.
Other one-off items, totalling €0.9 million, relate to the relocation to our new office in Amsterdam.
Income tax for H1 2025 amounted to €27.1 million (H1 2024: €26.7 million), implying an effective tax rate of 28.6% compared with 26.7% in H1 2024. Our effective tax rate is above the general Dutch tax rate of 25.8%.

Our loan portfolio increased by €0.1 billion to €9.5 billion. This portfolio breaks down into Dutch residential mortgages and other loans. Other loans includes loans to high-networth individuals as well as healthcare professionals, family businesses and business professionals.
Mortgages grew slightly to €6.4 billion (year-end 2024: €6.4 billion) and make up 68% of our total loan portfolio. These mortgages are primarily granted to Dutch high-networth individuals. The weighted average loan-to-value (LTV) ratio stood at 58% (2024: 60%).
In H1 2025, other loans rose to €2.5 billion (year-end 2024: €2.3 billion), due to an increase in Lombard loans and current accounts.


The portfolio of mortgages distributed by third parties consists of regular Dutch residential mortgages. It accounts for 3% of our total loan portfolio, with a volume of €315 million (year-end 2024: €330 million). No new mortgages are issued in this portfolio.
The volume amounted to €290 million (year-end 2024: €293 million) and is a dedicated tranche for Van Lanschot Kempen, which consists primarily of Dutch mortgages with a Dutch national mortgage guarantee (NHG).
We take provisions for impaired loans in our loan book. These totalled €92 million at 30 June 2025, down 28% on year-end 2024 (€127 million) driven by several individual clients. As a result, the total impaired ratio decreased from 1.4% at year-end 2024 to 1.0% at 30 June 2025.
Stage 3 provisions for impaired loans amounted to €22 million, working out at a coverage ratio of 24%. The relatively low coverage ratio is explained by the high quality of the collateral pledged against these loans.

The CET1 ratio (Basel IV fully loaded) decreased in H1 2025 to 18.2% (year-end 2024: 19.3%). The fall relative to the end of 2024 is mostly explained by the capital return we paid out in June.
The total risk exposure amount (Basel IV fully loaded) increased slightly to €4.5 billion at 30 June 2025 (year-end 2024: €4.5 billion).

Our CET1 requirement is set at 7.4%, whereas the total SREP capital requirement stands at 13.2%. Including current combined buffer requirements and Pillar 2 guidance, overall required CET1 capital amounted to 11.8% of our total risk exposure amount.

Total investment portfolio and cash7 decreased from €6.3 billion at year-end 2024 to €5.5 billion at the end of H1 2025. This was primarily due to a reduction in cash held with central banks to €1.0 billion (year-end 2024: €1.9 billion). Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income decreased modestly to €2.7 billion (year-end 2024: €2.8 billion). The investment portfolio is primarily held for asset and liability management purposes, and mainly comprises low-risk and highly liquid instruments.

Investment portfolio and liquidity by counterparty at 30/06/2025 (100% = €5.5 billion)

We aim to retain access to both retail and wholesale markets through diversified funding.
At the end of H1 2025, our loan-to-deposit ratio had increased to 77.1%, from 73.1% at year-end 2024.
Our liquidity coverage ratio remained relatively stable and stood at 198.6% at the end of H1 2025 (year-end 2024: 220.7%).
7 Investment portfolio and cash comprises the balance of financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, other financial assets at amortised cost, financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss, cash withdrawable on demand from central banks, and highly liquid (cash) investments.

Redemption profile (€ million)

On 21 July 2025, we announced the intended acquisition by Van Lanschot Kempen of Wilton Family Office, a Dutch multi-family office and asset manager. The transaction is subject to regulatory approval and is expected to have a negative impact of approximately a quarter of a percentage point on our capital ratio. The transaction is expected to complete in Q4 2025.

Van Lanschot Kempen NV ("Van Lanschot Kempen") is an independent specialist wealth manager.
Van Lanschot Kempen has its registered office at Hooge Steenweg 29, 5211 JN ´s-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands. It is a public limited company incorporated under Dutch law and registered under number 16038212 at the Chamber of Commerce.
The condensed consolidated financial statements of Van Lanschot Kempen and its subsidiaries for the six-month reporting period ended 30 June 2025 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all financial information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with Van Lanschot Kempen's annual consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2024. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not been audited or reviewed. Unless stated otherwise, all amounts are presented in thousands of euros. The totals may not always match the sum of the individual values due to rounding.
In accordance with IAS 34 disclosure requirements for condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the respective materiality criteria, notes on items and movements assessed as immaterial and/or insignificant have been omitted compared with previous years' condensed consolidated interim financial statements. This results in a more focused set of condensed consolidated interim financial statements than in the previous year.
The Management Board has assessed the ability of Van Lanschot Kempen to continue its operations and concluded that Van Lanschot Kempen is able to do so for the foreseeable future. The mid-year assessment represents a continuation of the going concern review performed at yearend, further supported by Van Lanschot Kempen's strong capital and liquidity ratios. Moreover, the Management Board is not aware of any material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt on our – i.e. Van Lanschot Kempen's – ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared on this basis.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements of Van Lanschot Kempen for the year ended 31 December 2024, except for the adoption of new standards and interpretations effective from 1 January 2025.
In the process of applying our accounting policies, we use estimates and assumptions which can have a significant impact on the amounts recognised in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements. There were no changes to the significant accounting judgements and estimates in H1 2025. For more information, see "Significant accounting judgements and estimates" in Van Lanschot Kempen's annual consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2024. These estimates and assumptions are based on the most recent information available. The actual amounts may differ in the future. Where applicable, the impact of uncertain economic circumstances on assumptions used are explained further in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
The following revised standard became effective on 1 January 2025 and applies to these condensed consolidated interim financial statements. Application of this standard had no material impact on Van Lanschot Kempen's equity or result.
The amendments specify how an entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when exchangeability is lacking.

In December 2022, EU member states adopted the EU Directive on minimum taxation (Pillar 2). Under this directive, multinational companies are subject to a minimum effective tax rate of 15% in every jurisdiction where they have an entity. If the effective tax rate is lower than 15%, a top-up tax is applied to reach a 15% effective tax burden.
Companies with a global turnover exceeding €750 million in at least two of the four reporting years immediately preceding the reporting year fall within the scope of Pillar 2. The Minimum Tax Act, in which Pillar 2 is formalised, has
been effective in the Netherlands since 2024. For the purposes of this Act, our consolidated revenues in the 2020– 22 period were below €750 million; in 2023 and 2024 they ended up above that figure. As a result, Van Lanschot Kempen falls within the scope of the Pillar 2 rules in 2025. However, based on our CbCR calculations, we believe that Van Lanschot Kempen qualifies for the Transitional CbCR Safe Harbour rules, meaning that no top-up tax should be due. Hence, neither the mandatory recognition and disclosure exception in IAS 12.4A nor the disclosure requirements in IAS 12.88A-88D apply to us at this point.

Model-based Stage 1 provisions inched up to €3.1 million in H1 2025 (2024: €2.7 million). The coverage ratio remained unchanged.
Stage 2 provisions also increased slightly to €4.6 million (2024: €4.3 million), while maintaining a stable coverage ratio.
The baseline scenario for Stage 3 provisions is determined by our Credit Approval and Financial Restructuring & Recovery department, with minor IFRS 9 model adjustments. In H1 2025, Stage 3 provisions went down to €21.9 million (2024: €28.1 million), mainly due to write-offs (€3.0 million) and releases (€3.0 million).

Drawing on forward-looking information for the sophisticated approach, we use macroeconomic variables and consider three macroeconomic scenarios in calculating expected credit loss (ECL): a base-case scenario, an upside scenario and a downside scenario. The scenario weightings were 10% for the upside scenario, 20% for the downside scenario and 70% for the base-case scenario as at 30 June 2025.
For the portfolios that fall under the scope of IFRS 9, we perform a scenario analysis to calculate the sensitivity of ECLs to macroeconomic variables. ECLs' main economic drivers are gross domestic product (GDP), volume of exports (EXP), total investments (TI), private consumption (PC), residential real estate price (RREP) and government consumption (GC). In the table below, ECLs are shown per stage and per scenario.

Some financial instruments are measured at fair value in the statement of financial position. The fair value is based either on quoted prices in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable in the market, or inputs based on data not observable in the market.
We have developed a policy on the criteria for allocating financial instruments recognised in the statement of financial position at fair value to each of the three levels. A review is carried out at the end of each reporting period to determine whether any changes have taken place in the hierarchy between the levels.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in an active market is based on the price at the reporting date (market price). The bid price is applied for financial assets and the offer price for financial liabilities. Since these instruments are traded in an active market, their prices adequately reflect current and frequent market transactions between unrelated parties.
The fair value of financial instruments not traded in an active market (e.g. over-the-counter financial derivatives) is established using cash flow and option valuation models. Drawing on estimates, we make assumptions based on the market conditions (observable data) at the reporting date.
The estimated present value of future cash flows is used to determine the fair value of the other financial instruments. The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the present value of estimated future cash flows. The discount rate is the same as the market interest rate at the reporting date for a similar instrument subject to the same conditions, taking into account collateral furnished under credit support annexes (CSAs).
The fair value of forward currency contracts is calculated by reference to forward exchange rates at the reporting date.
Estimates and judgements made are based on past experience as well as other factors, including expectations with respect to future events that could reasonably occur given current circumstances. Estimates and judgements are assessed on an ongoing basis.
The financial instruments in this category are assessed on an individual basis. Their valuation is based on management's best estimate by reference to the most recent prices, prices of similar instruments and, to a not insignificant extent, information not observable in the market. Unobservable inputs may include volatility, correlation, seasonality and credit spreads. A valuation technique is used in which at least one input that has a significant effect on the instrument's valuation is not based on observable market data. Valuation techniques used include:
A significant effect on the instrument's valuation is considered to be present when the unobservable input accounts for at least 10% of the total instrument's fair value and exceeds a threshold of €50,000. The effect of fair value adjustments on the instrument's valuation is included in the assessment.

Transfers of financial assets or liabilities between levels We have developed a policy document for the fair value hierarchy. This divides the variables used into observable and unobservable market inputs. If the unobservable input variables are significant, the instrument is classified as Level 3. An unobservable input variable is significant if the change in the fair value due to the application of the variable is greater than the threshold values. Our policy is to recognise transfers into and out of fair value hierarchy levels at the end of the reporting period.
In H1 2025, our valuation technique remained unchanged, with unobservable input variables being assessed on significance. As a result of this assessment, there were no transfers from Level 2 to Level 3 and vice versa.

The value of financial instruments at amortised cost is taken as the amount for which the instrument could be exchanged in a commercial transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. If there is an active
market, we use the market value to determine the fair value. For financial instruments for which no market prices are available, the fair values are estimated on the basis of the present value or using other estimation or valuation methods.

The decrease in irrevocable lease commitments is attributable to the start of the new Amsterdam office lease from 1 June 2025, which is now recognised under Right-ofuse assets – buildings and lease liabilities.
The increase in irrevocable unused credit facilities is explained by a rise in accepted and outstanding mortgage offers.
2 The fair values of client deposits without contractual maturities (non-maturing deposits or NMDs) are approximated by the "economic values" that we calculate for these products as part of our interest rate risk management. We gauge their interest rate sensitivity (duration) by means of replicating portfolios, in which NMDs are invested in fixed income instruments (swaps) with various interest rate maturities. To arrive at economic values, we discount these replicating portfolio investments' cash flows at current market interest rates (swap rates).
