Modena – 6 November 2025. At its meeting yesterday afternoon, 5 November 2025, the Board of Directors of BPER Banca (the "Bank"), chaired by Fabio Cerchiai, examined and approved the Bank separate and Group consolidated results as at 30 September 2025.
"The results we delivered thanks to the contribution of all our colleagues are very positive and confirm a steady growth trend, quarter after quarter. These figures demonstrate the concreteness of our work alongside our customers, to whom we have provided around €20 billion of new lending, continuously increasing compared to the first nine months of 2024, and always with a high focus on credit quality", Gianni Franco Papa, BPER Group CEO commented. "For the first time, we have presented to the market a consolidated view including Banca Popolare di Sondrio. It highlights revenues growth, continuous improvement in operational efficiency and excellent commercial dynamics, driven by commissions in Wealth Management and Bancassurance, in line with our strategy of strong development in asset gathering. After the successful completion of the Public Purchase and Exchange Offer on Banca Popolare

di Sondrio, 23 workstreams have been launched and are progressing at full speed in view of the merger. A new shared path has begun, which leverages on two banks merging their long history, deep roots, strong territorial focus and customer proximity, and will enable us to exploit all synergies and enhance mutual best practices. While we remain focused on our commitments to the market, we are already seeing the first signs that allow us to look forward with confidence and determination to the next chapter in our growth, well aware that together we are and will always be stronger."
********************
It is noted that the Banca Popolare di Sondrio Group has been consolidated line by line in the BPER Banca Group's income statement since 1 July 2025.

with a duration of 2.0 years and included €20.8 bn of Italian government bonds.
The BPER Banca Group operates across Italy with a network of 2,05114 branches (in addition to the 21 bank branches of Banca Popolare di Sondrio (SUISSE) SA and the Luxembourg head office of BPER Bank Luxembourg SA).
As at 30 September 2025, the headcount15 was 23,129.
Reported below are the capital ratios as at 30 September 2025:

Net interest income stood at €2,432.8 m, down 3.6% 9M/9M, a better-than-expected result. As compared to the second quarter of 2025, the 0.9% decrease recorded in the third quarter was due to the effect of lower interest rates (-€21.3 m Q/Q), partially offset by the positive commercial dynamics of volumes (+€10.8 m Q/Q) and by the increase in the non-commercial component (+€3.1 m Q/Q).
Net commission income was up to €1,592.5 m (+6.0% 9M/9M), driven by commissions on investment services settling at €688.6 m (+10.3% 9M/9M), bancassurance commissions on non-life insurance at €82.6 m (+16.3% 9M/9M) and commissions on traditional banking at €821.3 m (+1.7% 9M/9M).
Dividends amounted to €52.1 m (+29.0% 9M/9M), of which €11.1 m from the stake held in the Bank of Italy and €21.9 m due to the stake held in Arca Vita. Net income from financial activities amounted to a positive €29.0 m.
Total operating income amounted to €4,216.4 m (+2.1% 9M/9M).
Operating costs amounted to €1,972.8 m (-3.5% 9M/9M19). More specifically:
The cost/income ratio was down to 46.8% 9M/9M as at 30 September 2025. In 3Q25, it amounted to 47.3%.
The annualised cost of risk settled at 34 bps with impairment losses on financial assets at amortised cost relating to loans to customers amounting to €230.8 m (-11.1% 9M/9M). Total cumulative overlays amounted to €146.6 m as at 30 September 2025 after a reallocation of €67.2 m Q/Q between provisioning categories, keeping performing coverage ratio stable at 0.63%.
Gains on investments amounted to €1.5 m.
After deducting income tax, totalling €640.3 m and profit for the period pertaining to minority interests amounting to €26.0 m, profit for the period pertaining to the Parent Company totalled €1,328.4 m (+19.6% 9M/9M23), the best result ever, also thanks to 3Q net profit.
Unless otherwise specified, percentage changes refer to figures being compared with data as at 31/12/2024.
Total financial assets stood at €319.5 bn, up 5.3% Y/Y.
Direct deposits from customers24 totalled €120.7 bn, up €4.1 bn Y/Y thanks to the Bank's attraction of customer liquidity. Assets under management rose to €76.6 bn (+8.2% Y/Y); assets under custody totalled €100.6 bn (+5.9% Y/Y); life insurance policies totalled €21.5 bn (+2.1% Y/Y).
Net loans to customers increased to €91.7 bn (+3.2% Y/Y), thanks to the BPER network commercial effort. New loans to customers were granted for an amount of €14.7 bn in the first nine months of 2025 (+20.0% 9M/9M).

The disciplined approach to non-performing loan management has enabled the Bank to achieve high asset quality standards: the share of non-performing loans to customers has improved Y/Y in terms of both gross NPE ratio at 2.7% and net NPE ratio at 1.2%.
The NPE coverage ratio rose to 56.3% Q/Q – among the highest levels in Italy – mainly thanks to higher UTP coverage. Stage 2 loan coverage at 5.1%.
Financial assets totalled €31.5 bn (up 13.6% Y/Y).
With reference to the macroeconomic context, the trade deals signed by the United States with the European Union and other trading partners are setting out a new framework for trade relations. The situation is still unfolding and the uncertainty over trade policies continues to weigh on the outlook for the global economy in the medium term. In the second quarter, the slowdown in global trade reflects the sharp decline in American imports, due to the unwinding of frontloading, and the first direct impact of tariffs. According to the projections published in October by the IMF, world GDP will expand by 3.2% in 2025 and by 3.1% in 2026.
In the second quarter of 2025, euro area GDP decelerated sharply due to the fading of the extraordinary boost in US demand that had sustained it in the first quarter. Economic activity grew slightly in the summer months, driven by the still positive contribution of services in contrast to a decrease in industry. According to the projections of ECB25 staff published in September, GDP growth is projected to be 1.2% in 2025, 1.0% in 2026 and 1.3% in 2027. In its July and September meetings, the ECB Governing Council decided to

keep the key interest rates unchanged.
According to the Bank of Italy26, Italian GDP fell slightly in the second quarter of 2025, curbed by the sharp drop in exports when the frontloading of sales to the United States came to an end. Investments instead continued to increase, benefiting from largely more favourable financial conditions, fiscal incentives and other support measures under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP). Household spending remained unchanged, reflecting individual households' uncertainties about their own financial situation and the macroeconomy. The Italian economy is estimated to have returned to growth in the third quarter, albeit to a modest extent on the back of activity in services and construction, combined with a subdued decline in industrial production. Household consumption also appeared to be showing signs of recovery in the summer months, driven by improved confidence and resilient labour income. However, uncertainty remains high, leading to cautious consumption decisions and a higher propensity to save. The outlook remains uncertain due to high geopolitical instability and the repercussions of trade tensions.
The Bank has confirmed its guidance for BPER and presented its new consolidated guidance, inclusive of the contribution of the BP Sondrio Group for the financial year 2025 (the "FY25 Guidance").

1 Net interest income plus net commission income.
2 Consolidated results as at 30 September 2025, as stated in the BPER Group's Consolidated Interim Report on Operations as at the same date, were determined by temporarily including in the Group's accounts the business combination arising from the acquisition of control of the Banca Popolare di Sondrio Group ("BP Sondrio Group") (ref. IFRS 3). Although measurement at fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired is still being completed, the NPE ratio was calculated by incorporating the NPE portfolio contributed by the BP Sondrio Group at its net value (i.e. gross NPE exposure net of its impairment provisions) as a temporary estimate of the corresponding fair value.
3 The capital ratios as at 30 September 2025 are to be considered phased-in on the basis of the new prudential supervisory framework in force since 1 January 2025 (Basel IV) and were calculated by including profit for the period for the portion not allocated to dividends, thus simulating, in advance, the effects of the ECB's authorisation to include these profits in Own Funds pursuant to art. 26, para. 2 of the CRR. Pro-forma CET1 ratio at 15.7% was determined excluding the impact of Alba Leasing, due to its temporary nature.
4 Pro-forma LCR at 173% excluding the impact of Alba Leasing.
5 Pro-forma NSFR at 135% excluding the impact of Alba Leasing.
6 As at 30 September 2025, Basic EPS is €0.961 and Diluted EPS is €0.944.
7"BPER" is understood as "like-for-like" in scope, i.e. excluding the contribution of the BP Sondrio Group from the consolidated accounts as at 30 September 2025.
8 In this press release, the 9M/9M percentage change reflects the variation in a figure between the first nine months of 2025 and the first nine months of 2024.
9 The percentage change reflects the 9M/9M comparison between consolidated net profit for the first nine months of 2025 and adjusted consolidated net profit for the first nine months of 2024, which did not include +€150.1 m worth of gains from the disposal of the equity investment in the servicing platform relating to the management and recovery of loans classified as unlikely to pay (UTP) and non-performing (NPL) and -€2.1 m in related tax effect recognised in the first quarter of 2024, and did not include -€173.8 m relating to the workforce optimisation manoeuvre booked in the second quarter of 2024 under Staff costs and +€52.1 m in related tax effect. Please note that contributions to the Banking System funds totalled €109.6 m in the first nine months of 2024, reflecting the contribution to the Deposit Guarantee Scheme.
10 The cost/income ratio comparison takes into consideration that the adjusted operating costs for the first nine months of 2024 did not include -€173.8 m relating to the workforce optimisation manoeuvre booked in the second quarter of 2024 under Staff costs.
11 Includes amounts due to customers, debt securities issued and financial liabilities designated at fair value.

(*) The comparative balance sheet ratios, together with ROE, ROTE and ROA, have been calculated on figures as at 31 December 2024 as per the Consolidated financial report of the BPER Banca Group as at 31 December 2024, while income statement ratios have been calculated on figures at 30 September 2024.
The Texas ratio is calculated as total gross non-performing loans to customers on net tangible equity (Group and minority interests) plus impairment provisions for non-performing loans to customers.
ROE has been calculated as annualised net profit for the period considering only the recurring component (Euro 2,074.5 million at 30 September 2025) on average Group's shareholders' equity not including net profit.
ROTE is calculated as the ratio between the annualised net profit for the period considering only the recurring component (Euro 2,074.5 million at 30 September 2025) and the Group's average shareholders' equity i) including the annualised net profit for the period considering only the recurring component (Euro 2,074.5 million at 30 September 2025) stripped of the portion allocated to dividends annualised and ii) excluding intangible assets and equity instruments.
ROA has been calculated as annualised net profit for the period including net profit pertaining to minority interests considering only the recurring component (Euro 2,167.0 million at 30 September 2025) on total assets.
The Cost/income ratio is calculated on the basis of the reclassified income statement (operating costs/operating income); when calculated on the basis of the schedules provided by the 8th update of Bank of Italy Circular no. 262, the Cost/Income ratio is 45.76% (56.56% at 30 September 2024).
Cost of credit is calculated as the item of the reclassified income statement "Net impairment losses to financial assets at amortised cost – loans to customers" on the item of the reclassified balance sheet "Loans b) Loans to customers". The annualised cost of credit at 30 September 2025 is 24 bps, down from 36 bps in FY24.

(*) The comparative ratios have been calculated on figures at 31 December 2024 as per the Consolidated Financial Report of the BPER Banca Group as at 31 December 2024.
The capital ratios as at 30 September 2025 are to be considered Phased-in on the basis of the new prudential supervisory framework entered into force as of 1 January 2025 (Basel IV) and are calculated by including profit for the period for the portion not allocated to dividends, thus simulating, in advance, the effects of the ECB's authorisation to include these profits in Own Funds pursuant to art. 26, para 2 of the CRR.
The Leverage Ratio has been calculated according to the provisions of Regulation (EU) 575/2013 (CRR), as amended by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 62/2015.
The information provided is consistent with the ESMA document of 5 October 2015 "Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures", aimed at promoting the usefulness and transparency of Alternative Performance Measures included in prospectuses or regulated information.
