Earnings summary2,3,4,5

The first half-year of 2022 was overshadowed by the invasion of Ukraine. In addition to the human tragedy, the economic impact of the invasion has been far-reaching. Significantly rising commodity and food prices drove inflation – already elevated by supply shortages – to historic highs around the globe. International supply chains came under renewed stress, partly due to repeated lockdowns in China. Strong uncertainty among households and businesses was reflected in falling sentiment indicators – and an increasing reluctance to consume and invest. The bottom line is therefore that global growth in the first half of 2022 was rather weak.

Inflation and the reaction of monetary policy were the dominant themes in the financial markets. Despite growing concerns about the economy, almost all central banks around the world devoted themselves to the fight against rising prices and turned the interest rate screw – sharply, in some cases. For example, the U.S. Federal Reserve raised its key interest rate from 0.25% to 2.50%, with the latest rate hike of 75 basis points taking place in July. The European Central Bank ended its bond-buying program and raised the deposit rate to zero in July; thereby, the experiment of negative interest rates in the eurozone came to an end. Irrespective of the different speeds of the interest rate turnaround, government bond yields (10-year) shot up sharply on both sides of the Atlantic. At the end of June, the U.S. yield was (just) above 3% again, while its German counterpart was at 1.3% – this after still being in negative territory at the beginning of the year. Rising interest rates and yields significantly impacted the stock markets, which closed the first half of the year with a historically poor performance of around minus 20%.

The insurance industry was unable to escape the negative trend. High inflation in particular, – and thus sharply rising claims levels – impacted business, especially in the motor and property lines of business. At the same time, real losses in household incomes limited demand. Price increases, however, kept premiums growing in the property-casualty sector in the first half of the year. Inflation plays a lesser role in the life sector, as policy benefits are generally fixed when contracts are concluded. By contrast, the slump in the capital markets had a negative impact, especially on sales of savings products. This slump was compounded by a decline in the household savings rate caused by falling incomes (in real terms). These factors dampened premium income, even though the demand for risk protection continued to be driven by heightened risk awareness in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis.

In the asset management industry, market-related uncertainties entailed that, most asset classes faced redemptions in the first halfyear of 2022, especially in the retail space. At the same time, passive investments remained attractive and continued to gain market share. This meant they grew more strongly than traditional active strategies and put additional pressure on fee margins across the industry. Despite the market turmoil, alternatives – and especially private investments – remain an attractive asset class, having proved their relative stability in the current difficult market environment.

Across all asset classes, investors are increasingly demanding fulfillment of ESG (environmental, social and governance) criteria.

Our total revenues increased by 3.7 % on an internal basis6 , compared to the same period of the previous year. This was mostly driven by our Property-Casualty business segment due to positive price effects (mainly in Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty (AGCS), Türkiye, Germany and Brazil) and volume effects, largely from our U.S. travel insurance business. This internal growth was further supported by growth in the Life/Health business segment, but offset by negative internal growth in the Asset Management business segment.

Our operating profit increased slightly in comparison to the first half-year of 2021. This was due to higher operating profit in the Property-Casualty and Asset Management business segments, largely offset by the Life/Health business segment. The increase was driven by higher operating investment income, and a slight rise in underwriting result in the Property-Casualty business. However, operating profit fell in the Life/Health business segment, largely because of a negative change in DAC for the variable annuities products in the United States. The Asset Management business segment benefited from higher assets under management-driven revenues.

6_Internal total revenue growth excludes the effects of foreign currency translation as well as acquisitions and disposals. For a reconciliation of nominal total revenue growth to internal total revenue growth for each of our business segments and the Allianz Group as a whole, please refer to the chapter Reconciliations.

Our operating investment result decreased by € 8,021 mn to € 4,322 mn, compared to the previous year's period. This was largely driven by negative derivatives results caused by a combination of interest rate increases affecting mainly Allianz Leben and business factors in Allianz Life.

Our non-operating result declined by € 3.3 bn to a loss of € 3.4 bn. This was mostly due to the Structured Alpha provision booked in the first quarter of 2022 and lower non-operating investment income due to the difficult market conditions. In addition, we recorded higher restructuring expenses of € 0.1 bn in relation to the Voya transaction1 , as well as continued investments in productivity and efficiency.

Income taxes decreased by € 693 mn to € 880 mn, due to lower profit before tax. The effective tax rate increased to 26.2 % (23.8 %), due to higher non-tax-deductible expenses and higher local taxes.

The decrease in net income was largely driven by the Structured Alpha provision booked in the first quarter of 2022.

Our shareholders' equity2 decreased by € 23.6 bn to € 56.4 bn, compared to 31 December 2021, mainly driven by a reduction of the unrealized gains and losses (net) from available-for-sale assets. Over the same period, our Solvency II capitalization ratio decreased to 200 %3 .

For a more detailed description of the results generated by each individual business segment (Property-Casualty insurance operations, Life/Health insurance operations, Asset Management, and Corporate and Other), please consult the respective chapters on the following pages.

Risk and opportunity management

In our Annual Report 2021, we described our risk and opportunity profile and addressed potential risks that could adversely affect both our business and our risk profile.

As announced by ad-hoc disclosures on 17 February 2022 and 11 May 2022, Allianz decided to recognize a provision of € 3.7 bn for the fourth quarter of 2021 and a provision of € 1.9 bn for the first quarter of 2022 for the Structured Alpha matter. Further details on this can be found in note 33.

The invasion of Ukraine is another matter where new developments in the first half of 2022 are of specific importance for the Allianz Group's risk profile.

The invasion affects our strategic orientation and targets in the insurance business – directly for Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), and indirectly for Asia.

  • − Our strategy in CEE remains similar, i.e. we remain committed to the region and its growth potential. The exception to this strategy is that our sale of the majority share in our local Russian business is directing greater focus to other CEE entities.
  • − While we remain committed to our long-term strategy in Asia, we continue to monitor very closely the geopolitical implications of the invasion and its second-order effects on other emerging markets –

such as the Asian economies – and on the regional political situation.

At this point and from a financial impact perspective, the invasion has had a negative impact on our investment performance, whereas its earnings impact via the insurance business is immaterial for the Allianz Group. The Allianz Group's capitalization as of the end of June 2022 is still adequate, and there is no strain on liquidity. In addition, the invasion has caused no cybersecurity incidents.

  • − In the first half of 2022, the investment performance of broader asset markets (equity, fixed income) was negative. This reflected persistently high inflation, rising rates, fears of a recession and earnings revision, as well as the impact of a prolonged conflict between Russia and Ukraine. In addition, the Allianz Group was affected by the invasion via market value losses on investments in Russian, Ukrainian and Belarussian bonds.
  • − There are two reasons why there was only a small impact via our insurance business. First, our local insurance operating entities in Ukraine and Russia amount to less than 0.3 % of the Allianz Group's operating profit. Second, even though conditions in insurance markets were volatile, the direct impact of the invasion on our Group business run by AGCS and other global entities was limited by application of war exclusions on much of the business, as well as by active efforts by these Allianz entities to reduce exposure through, for example, no new business, and by clients reducing their exposure.
  • − At this point, there is no evidence of significant direct and indirect impacts on Allianz Group's liquidity that are attributable to the invasion.
  • − Neither the Ukrainian entity nor other Allianz Group companies were hurt by cybersecurity incidents triggered by the invasion and the subsequent sanctions.

Looking to the future, a prolonged invasion of Ukraine could continue to have a negative impact on the global economic outlook, with high commodity prices and inflation reducing confidence and impacting the performance of financial markets. Given our sensitivity to financial markets, this could further affect our capitalization. In this scenario, our operations would continue to be exposed to cybersecurity risk, especially as groups of hackers targeting critical Ukrainian infrastructure might cause spill-over effects, and Russia might target the West in retaliation for sanctions or cyber-attacks against Russian targets.

The impact of the invasion on the Allianz Group is mitigated by a broad range of specific actions, which were implemented or initiated in the first half of the year, in combination with our general risk management processes.

− We are writing no new business in our Russian and Ukrainian local entities (except where required by law), and we are monitoring the related reputational risk. We consider this risk to be relatively small and mostly related to sanctions. In addition, entities operating globally will continue to actively reduce their insurance exposure in Russia.

1_For further information on the Voya transaction, please refer to note 4 of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

3_Including the application of transitional measures for technical provisions, the Solvency II capitalization ratio amounted to 227 % as of 30 June 2022. For further information, please refer to the Balance Sheet Review.

  • − Reputational impacts will be reduced even further once the sale of our majority stake in the Russian local business is completed.
  • − Allianz SE and its subsidiaries continue to closely monitor underlying liquidity positions. This in particular includes analysis of potential liquidity needs at the level of Allianz SE if local entities have extraordinary recapitalization needs, or if there is unexpected adverse behavior regarding our cash pool balance.
  • − The Allianz Group has stepped up cybersecurity measures, with a special focus on strengthening data backup procedures for Allianz Ukraine. In addition, business interruption procedures and external insurance cover for cyber risk are in place. Allianz Group's cybersecurity situation is being monitored closely by the Allianz Technology Cyber Defense Center Team, and Allianz maintains close exchange with German governmental agencies, and global cyber threat information-sharing with (threat intelligence) communities continues.
  • − Our Group risk management framework takes a forward-looking view and regularly assesses a range of scenarios. This includes a potential amplification of geopolitical tensions in the Asian region, and how we can respond to such developments.

Nonetheless, in a worst case scenario, in which Russia completely cuts off its energy supply to Europe, and the resulting energy crisis and severe global recession lead to a sell-off for risky assets, the invasion of Ukraine could materially affect our capitalization, requiring additional countermeasures.

Overall, we continue to closely monitor the evolution of the invasion of Ukraine, related geopolitical conflicts, their impacts on the global economy, on financial markets and on the Allianz Group, so that we can react in a timely and appropriate manner, should the need arise. The risks are managed via our continuous own risk and solvency management processes. For further information, please refer to the chapter Outlook.

Events after the balance sheet date

For information on any events occurring after the balance sheet date, please refer to note 34 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Other information

Effective 1 January 2022, the Allianz Group reorganized the structure of its insurance activities to reflect the changes in the responsibilities of the Board of Management. The insurance activities in Asia-Pacific and Greece form a new reportable segment. In the Property-Casualty business segment, Allianz Direct and Allianz Partners were combined with the insurance activities in Western & Southern Europe to form the reportable segment Western & Southern Europe, Allianz Direct and Allianz Partners. Previously reported information has been adjusted to reflect this change in the composition of the Allianz Group's reportable segments.

Additionally, some minor reallocations between the reportable segments have been made.

The purpose of Allianz is to secure the future of our customers. Allianz strategy centers around delivering on this purpose and creating value for shareholders, customers, employees, and society. Since December 2021, Allianz SE has defined three strategic objectives for Allianz Group: growth, margin expansion and capital efficiency. In addition, Allianz SE plays a role in steering the implementation of strategic objectives and has therefore defined five focus areas to steer execution. These focus areas are described in the Risk and Opportunity Report that forms part of our Annual Report 2021.

For an overview of the products and services offered by the Allianz Group as well as of sales channels, please refer to the Business Operations chapter in our Annual Report 2021.

The Allianz Group operates and manages its activities through the four business segments: Property-Casualty insurance operations, Life/Health insurance operations, Asset Management, and Corporate and Other. For further information, please refer to note 5 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements, or to the Business Operations chapter in our Annual Report 2021.

Total revenues6

On a nominal basis, we recorded a rise of 12.1% in total revenues compared to the first six months of the previous year.

This included favorable foreign currency translation effects of € 682 mn7 and positive (de)consolidation effects of € 517 mn. On an internal basis, our revenues went up 8.5%. This was driven by a positive price effect of 4.8%, a positive volume effect of 2.8%, and a positive service effect of 0.8%.

The following operations contributed positively to internal growth:

Allianz Partners: Total revenues increased to € 4,325 mn, an internal growth of 28.3%. This was mainly due to favorable volume effects in our U.S. travel insurance business and – to a lesser extent – driven by higher revenues from service fees in our assistance business.

Türkiye: Total revenues amounted to € 499 mn – up 82.2% on an internal basis. Price increases following the rise in the consumer price index were key drivers for this development.

Germany: Total revenues went up 4.6% on an internal basis, totaling € 7,067 mn. Much of this was due to price increases in our motor and commercial property insurance business.

The following operations weighed on internal growth:

China: Total revenues decreased by 12.9% on an internal basis, totaling € 327 mn. Unfavorable volume effects due to economic conditions were the main drivers for this development.

Allianz Direct: Total revenues fell to € 519 mn. This internal decrease of 5.2% was a result of volume decline, especially in Italy, due to strong price competition.

Driven largely by the positive development of our operating investment income, our operating profit increased considerably compared to the first six months of the previous year. A slight rise in our underwriting result added to that outcome.

Our underwriting result rose moderately despite our increased combined ratio, which was overcompensated by strong premium growth. Overall, our combined ratio increased by 0.7 percentage points to 94.1 %, which was due to normalization of claims frequency, higher claims from natural catastrophes and a slight worsening on the expenses side, compared to the first half-year of 2021. Higher contribution from run-off had a partially offsetting effect on our combined ratio.

Our accident year loss ratio8 stood at 71.3% – an increase of 2.0 percentage points compared to the first half of the previous year. This was mainly due to normalization of claims frequency and higher claims from natural catastrophes. The latter resulted in an increase in our combined ratio of 0.9 percentage points: from 3.1% to 4.0%.

Leaving aside losses from natural catastrophes, our accident year loss ratio worsened by 1.1 percentage points to 67.3%.

The following operations contributed positively to the development of our accident year loss ratio:

Allianz Partners: 0.7 percentage points. This resulted from a favorable business mix shift due to the strong rebound of the U.S. travel insurance business.

Germany: 0.4 percentage points. This was driven by a high level of large losses in the first six months of 2021.

The following operations weighed on the development of our accident year loss ratio:

United Kingdom: 0.8 percentage points. This was due to reduced claims frequency benefits and higher claims from natural catastrophes.

France: 0.7 percentage points. This resulted from higher claims from natural catastrophes, especially in May and June 2022.

Brazil: 0.5 percentage points. This was driven by a deteriorating situation in the motor insurance market.

Our positive run-off result was € 1,186 mn, translating into a run-off ratio of 4.2% – compared to € 652 mn and 2.5% in the first half-year of 2021. Most of our operations contributed positively to our run-off result.

Operating acquisition and administrative expenses amounted to € 7,664 mn in the first six months of 2022, compared to € 6,834 mn in the same period of 2021. Our expense ratio increased by 0.3 percentage points to 26.9%.

Our operating investment income (net) went up in the first half-year of 2022. This was largely driven by higher interest and similar income (net of interest expenses) due to inflation-linked bonds and higher interest rates.

Net income

We registered a decrease of € 444 mn in our net income in the first six months of 2022. The favorable development of the operating profit and an improved tax result were more than offset by the nonoperating result, which decreased by € 752 mn. It was strongly affected by a deterioration of our non-operating investment result mainly due to higher impairments, lower realized gains and losses as well as the change to hyperinflation accounting in Türkiye. Slightly higher restructuring expenses related to our efficiency initiatives also weighed on the non-operating result.

Statutory premiums4

On a nominal basis, statutory premiums increased by 3.2% in the first half-year of 2022. This includes favorable foreign currency translation effects of € 752 mn as well as positive (de-)consolidation effects of € 330 mn. On an internal basis4 , statutory premiums grew by € 154 mn – or 0.4% – to € 38,690 mn.

In the German life business, statutory premiums rose to € 12,035 mn, or by 1.7% on an internal basis, mainly because of higher single premium sales in our business with capital-efficient products. In the German health business, statutory premiums reached € 1,998 mn, a 2.9% increase on an internal basis, largely due to growth in our comprehensive healthcare coverage.

In the United States, statutory premiums increased to € 7,381 mn, up 15.5% on an internal basis. This was due to higher sales in our fixed index annuities business.

In Italy, statutory premiums declined to € 6,434 mn, a 12.9% decrease on an internal basis. This resulted mainly from lower sales in our business with unit-linked products.

In France,statutory premiums dropped to € 3,586 mn. Most of this decrease – 4.9% on an internal basis – was due to lower sales in our guaranteed savings & annuities business.

In the Asia-Pacific region, statutory premiums grew to € 3,573 mn. The rise was mainly driven by favorable foreign currency translation effects. On an internal basis, statutory premiums fell slightly by 0.6%.

Present value of new business premiums (PVNBP)5

Our PVNBP decreased by € 3,050 mn to € 38,394 mn. This was predominantly driven by Italy in our guaranteed savings & annuities business due to a group contract renegotiation in 2021 and our unitlinked without guarantees business due to worsened market developments. Lower sales volumes for capital-efficient products in Germany also had a negative impact. Higher sales volumes for fixed index annuities in the United States partly offset this development.

Our operating profit decreased, largely because of a negative change in DAC for the variable annuities products in the United States. Additional unfavorable impacts came from a lower investment margin with negative hedge variance for the traditional variable annuities products. A lower investment margin in our German business contributed negatively to this result. Positive effects came from our acquisition in Poland resulting in higher loadings and fees, and an improved technical margin.

Our investment margin decreased, mainly driven by our fixed index annuity business in the United States – following the prior year backbook transaction, which was partly offset by positive impacts in the technical margin and DAC amortization. Another contributing factor in the United States was a negative hedge variance from our traditional variable annuities products. In Germany, we saw losses from derivatives, as well as higher impairments. These negative effects werepartly offsetby higher realizations in Germany, Belgium, Taiwan, and Spain.

3_Yields are pro rata.

Our acquisition expenses and commissions increased. Much of this was due to higher sales for fixed index annuities in the United States, higher sales in Asia-Pacific and our acquisition in Poland. The trend was partly offset by lower sales volumes in our German life business. Administrative and other expenses went up, largely caused by our acquisition in Poland and in line with business growth in the United States.

Technical margin4

Our technical margin improved. This was mainly driven by a positive reinsurance margin due to the release of the ceding reinsurance commission following the prior year back-book transaction in the United States as well as the consolidation of the acquired Aviva operations in Poland.

  • 1_Loadings and fees include premium and reserve-based fees, unit-linked management fees, and policyholder participation in expenses.

€ mn

The impact of change in DAC was positive. The higher capitalization was largely driven by higher sales volumes in our business with fixed index annuity products in the United States as well as higher sales in Asia-Pacific. Increased amortization mainly resulted from negative true-ups in our traditional variable annuities business due to declining stock markets partly offset by less amortization following the prior year back-book transaction in the United States.

Capital-efficient products 657 688 (31)
Operating profit 2,336 2,495 (159)

A decrease in our operating profit in the guaranteed savings & annuities line of business was largely driven by negative change in DAC in our traditional variable annuities business due to declining stock markets in the United States, as well as a lower investment margin in the German Life business. An improved investment margin in Italy and China partly offset this development. A higher operating profit in our protection & health line of business was mainly a consequence of our acquisition in Poland leading to higher loadings and fees, and improved technical margin. Operating profit fell in our unit-linked without guarantee line of business – primarily in Italy and France – driven by declining equity markets. Higher unit-linked management fees in Poland partly offset this effect. The decrease in the operating profit in our capital-efficient products line of business was largely due to increased amortization, mainly resulting from negative change in DAC in our non-traditional variable annuities business as well as lower profits in our fixed index annuity business – following the prior year back-book transaction in the United States.

Net income

Our net income declined by € 349 mn, driven by the decrease in the operating profit and by a lower non-operating result. The latter was largely due to lower non-operating investment results in Lebanon and the United States as well as unfavorable impacts from premium refunds in our German life & health business. The decrease was further driven by policyholder participation for positive extraordinary tax impacts in our German life business, which however was mainly offset by taxes shown in the income taxes result.

Return on equity

Our return on equity declined by 3.4 percentage points to 9.6%, mainly as a result of the decrease in the net income.

1_"Impact of change in DAC" includes effects of change in DAC, unearned revenue reserves (URR) and value of business acquired (VOBA). It represents the net impact of deferral and amortization of acquisition costs as well as of front-end loadings on operating profit, and therefore differs from the figures reported in our IFRS financial statements.

3_Three-year rolling investment outperformance reflects the mandate-based and volume-weighted three-year investment success of all third-party assets that are managed by Allianz Asset Management's portfolio-management units. For separate accounts and mutual funds, the investment success (valued on the basis of the closing prices) is compared with the investment success prior to cost deduction of the respective benchmark, based on various metrics. For some mutual funds, the investment success, reduced by fees, is compared with the investment success of the median of the respective Morningstar peer group (a position in the first and second quartile is equivalent to outperformance).

The overall three-year rolling investment outperformance decreased – caused by difficult market conditions.

Operating revenues

Our operating revenues increased by 6.4 % on a nominal basis. This development was driven by higher average third-party AuM, which led to higher AuM-driven fees at both PIMCO and AllianzGI. On an internal basis1 operating revenues decreased by 1.7 %.

We recorded lower performance fees – mainly at PIMCO – in a challenging market environment.

Other net fee and commission income rose, driven by increased average third-party AuM.

Operating profit

Our operating profit increased by 1.8% on a nominal basis, as growth in operating revenues slightly exceeded an increase in operating expenses. On an internal basis1 , our operating profit decreased by 5.2 %.

The nominal increase in administrative expenses was mainly driven by PIMCO, where higher personnel and non-personnel expenses were recorded. AllianzGI also contributed to the increase to a minor extent due to investments in business growth.

Our cost-income ratio went up as a consequence of less growth in operating revenues and a higher increase in operating expenses, compared to the previous half-year.

Earnings summary

Our operating result improved, compared to the first six months of the previous year. This was mainly due to our higher operating investment result, driven by inflation-linked bonds and dividends, which was partially offset by increased administrative and investment expenses.

Our net loss increased, mainly driven by the decrease in our nonoperating investment result, which was burdened by lower nonoperating realized gains and losses (net) as well as higher impairments. The positive contribution from our operating result and our improved tax result only partially offset this development.

OUTLOOK

Economic outlook1

The invasion of Ukraine has significantly worsened the growth outlook for 2022. Its direct and indirect effects have prompted us to significantly downgrade our forecast for global GDP (gross domestic product) in the current year, from 4.1% at the beginning of the year to 2.9% now. For the United States, we now expect growth of only 2%, which is also due to the sharp turnaround in monetary policy and the absence of fiscal policy support. In China, growth is likely to fall back to 4.1%, mainly reflecting the repeated lockdowns. Finally, for the eurozone we expect growth of 2.8%. At the same time, global inflation is expected to rise to over 8% on average for the year.

Despite these substantial revisions, there are still significant downside risks to this outlook: a further escalation and widening of the invasion of Ukraine and a complete halt to Russian gas supplies to Europe could plunge the global economy into recession before the end of the year. Other uncertainty factors include China's Zero-COVID policy (with possible lockdowns at any time) as well as rising political risks – in particular social unrest caused by the skyrocketing costs of living.

Monetary policy will likely prioritize the fight against inflation. The U.S. Federal Reserve is expected to raise its key interest rate to 3.5% by the end of the year; the European Central Bank's key interest rate – the deposit rate – is likely to stand at 0.75%. This approach will also give a further boost to the 10-year government bond yields, which we expect to climb to 3.2% (United States) and 1.5% (eurozone). At the same time, equity markets will remain under pressure and financial markets will remain highly volatile.

Insurance industry outlook

The invasion of Ukraine has also impacted the insurance industry. Rising prices continue to support premium income. However, weaker economic growth and declining real incomes are likely to limit demand. Premium growth in 2022 is therefore expected to be below original expectations. At the same time, while the investment environment remains very challenging due to stronger market movements, the increase in yields should generally have a positive impact on investment income.

In the property-casualty sector, premium growth is likely to be mainly driven by rising prices. On the other hand, record inflation will also lead to higher expenses in many lines of business.

In the life sector, the development of premium income will be dampened by declining savings rates and falling stock markets. However, greater awareness of the need for risk protection could boost risk products. There may also be some relief thanks to the expected decline in excess mortality as a result of the successful vaccination campaign in industrialized countries.

Asset management industry outlook

While the top-line has been negatively impacted by market turmoil, there is still potential for industry-wide growth in the asset management segment. Although passive funds and alternative investments are continuing to grow, active investments still make up a major share of AuM on a global scale. Demand for alternatives – and especially private investments – is expected to remain high. There are still opportunities in active public-equity and fixed-income strategies – for instance, with future yields that are expected to grow in the fixedincome space – in the context of broad interest rates increases.

The ESG (environmental, social and governance) segment of the industry is expected to grow strongly, but also to see greater regulation. Overall, regulation is expected to remain very substantial across the industry.

Despite this multifaceted situation, the industry is expected to continue and even accelerate the trend towards using technology to grow and support digital distribution channels. To remain competitive, firms must leverage advanced data and analytics, and create a scalable operating set-up.

Outlook for the Allianz Group

At the end of the first half-year of 2022 the Allianz Group operating profit amounted to € 6.7 bn. We are on track to meet the 2022 Allianz Group operating profit outlook of € 13.4 bn, plus or minus € 1 bn. We currently do not expect any impact from the invasion of Ukraine that would jeopardize the 2022 Allianz Group operating profit outlook.

As always, natural catastrophes and adverse developments in the capital markets, as well as factors stated in our cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements may severely affect the operating profit and/or net income of our operations and the results of the Allianz Group.

The net income attributable to shareholders amounting to € 2.3 bn and an increase in foreign currency translation adjustments of € 1.9 bn partly offset these effects.

Our Solvency II capitalization ratio decreased by 9 percentage points from 209 % to 200 %3 over the first six months of 2022. The decrease was predominantly driven by market impacts, other effects (especially a provision for the Structured Alpha matter, and taxes), capital and management actions, and the reduction of the ultimate forward rate. Solid operating capital generation partially offset these negative effects on the capitalization ratio.

Impact of change in deferred acquisition costs (DAC)

The impact of change in DAC includes effects of change in DAC, unearned revenue reserves (URR), and value of business acquired (VOBA), and is the net impact of the deferral and amortization of acquisition costs and front-end loadings on operating profit.

URR capitalized: Capitalization amount of unearned revenue reserves (URR) and deferred profit liabilities (DPL) for FAS 97 LP.

URR amortized: Total amount of URR amortized includes scheduled URR amortization, true-up, and unlocking.

Both capitalization and amortization are included in the line item premiums earned (net) in the Group income statement.

Policyholder participation is included within "change in our reserves for insurance and investment contracts (net)" in the Group income statement.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

GENERAL INFORMATION

1 _ Basis of presentation

The Allianz Group's condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of IAS 34 and have been prepared in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) applicable to interim financial reporting, as adopted under European Union regulations.

For existing and unchanged IFRSs, the condensed consolidated interim financial statements use the same accounting policies for recognition, measurement, consolidation and presentation as applied in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021.

In accordance with the provisions of IFRS 4, insurance contracts are recognized and measured on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) as at first-time adoption of IFRS 4 on 1 January 2005.

Amounts are rounded to millions of euro (€ mn), unless otherwise stated.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Allianz Group were authorized for issue by the Board of Management on 3 August 2022.

2 _ New accounting pronouncements

The following amendments and revisions to existing standards became effective for the Allianz Group's consolidated financial statements as of 1 January 2022:

  • − IFRS 3, Updating a Reference to the Conceptual Framework,
  • − IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use,
  • − IAS 37, Onerous Contracts Cost of Fulfilling a Contract, and
  • − Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018–2020 cycle (Amendments to IFRS 1, IFRS 9, IFRS 16 and IAS 41).

These changes had no material impact on the Allianz Group's condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the first halfyear of 2022.

In May 2017, the IASB issued IFRS 17, Insurance Contracts. In addition, the IASB issued further amendments to IFRS 17 in June 2020 and December 2021. IFRS 17 establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of insurance contracts and supersedes IFRS 4.

The effective date of the new standard was postponed until 1 January 2023. The latest amendment issued by the IASB on 9 December 2021 adds a transition option that permits an entity to apply a classification overlay in the comparative periods presented on initial application of IFRS 17. The overlay allows all financial assets, including those held in respect of activities not connected to contracts within the scope of IFRS 17, to be classified, on an instrument-byinstrument basis, in the comparative periods in a way that aligns with how the entity expects those assets to be classified on initial application of IFRS 9. The Allianz Group intends to apply the classification overlay, including the impairment requirements of IFRS 9, consistently to all eligible financial instruments.

IFRS 17 provides comprehensive guidance on accounting for insurance contracts issued, reinsurance contracts held, and investment contracts with discretionary participation features. It introduces three new measurement models, reflecting a different extent of policyholder participation in investment performance or overall insurance entity performance. The general measurement model, also known as the building block approach, consists of the fulfillment cash flows and the contractual service margin. The fulfillment cash flows represent the risk-adjusted present value of an entity's rights and obligations to the policyholders, comprising estimates of expected cash flows, discounting and an explicit risk adjustment for non-financial risk. The contractual service margin represents the unearned profit from inforce contracts that an entity will recognize as it provides services over the coverage period. At inception, the contractual service margin cannot be negative. If the fulfillment cash flows lead to a negative contractual service margin at inception, it will be set to zero and the negative amount will be recorded immediately in the statement of profit and loss. At the end of a reporting period, the carrying amount of a group of insurance contracts is the sum of the liability for remaining coverage and the liability of incurred claims. The liability for remaining coverage consists of the fulfillment cash flows related to future services and the contractual service margin, while the liability for incurred claims consists of the fulfillment cash flows related to past services. The contractual service margin gets adjusted for changes in cash flows related to future services and for the interest accretion at interest rates locked-in at initial recognition of the group of contracts. A release from the contractual service margin is recognized in profit or loss each period to reflect the services provided in that period based on "coverage units". IFRS 17 only provides principle-based guidance on how to determine these coverage units. Allianz has defined the account value for the reflection of investment services and the sum at risk for insurance services as the default approach to determine the coverage units. If multiple services are provided in one contract, a weighting is applied.

The variable fee approach is a mandatory modification of the general measurement model regarding the treatment of the contractual service margin in order to accommodate direct participating contracts. An insurance contract has a direct participation feature if the following three requirements are met: the contractual terms specify that the policyholder participates in a share of a clearly identified pool of underlying items; the entity expects to pay to the policyholder an amount equal to a substantial share of the fair value returns on the underlying items; the entity expects a substantial proportion of any change in the amounts to be paid to the policyholder to vary with the change in fair value of the underlying items.

The assessment of whether an insurance contract meets these three criteria is made at inception of the contract and not revised subsequently, except in case of a substantial modification of the contract. For contracts with direct participation features, the contractual service margin is adjusted for changes in the amount of the entity's share of the fair value of the underlying items. No explicit interest accretion is required since the contractual service margin is effectively remeasured when it is adjusted for changes in financial risks. The premium allocation approach is a simplified approach for the measurement of the liability of remaining coverage an entity may choose to use when the premium allocation approach provides a measurement which is not materially different from that under the general measurement model or if the coverage period of each contract in the group of insurance contracts is one year or less. Under the premium allocation approach, the liability for remaining coverage is measured as the amount of premiums received net of acquisition cash flows paid, less the net amount of premiums and acquisition cash flows that have been recognized in profit or loss over the expired portion of the coverage period based on the passage of time.

The measurement of the liability for incurred claims is identical under all three measurement models, apart from the determination of locked-in interest rates used for discounting.

IFRS 17 requires the separation of embedded derivatives, investment components, and performance obligations to provide noninsurance goods and services, if certain conditions are met. The separated components need to be accounted for separately according to IFRS 9(embedded derivatives, investment components) or IFRS 15(non-insurance goods and services).

Measurement is not carried out at the level of individual contracts, but on the basis of groups of contracts. To allocate individual insurance contracts to groups of contracts, an entity first needs to define portfolios which include contracts with similar risks that are managed together. These portfolios are to be subdivided into groups of contracts on the basis of profitability and annual cohorts. On 23 November 2021, the E.U. Commission endorsed IFRS 17 into E.U. law. The requirement to form annual cohorts that prevents contracts issued more than one year apart from being included in the same group (IFRS 17.22) is subject to an optional exemption in the E.U. endorsement: The E.U. Commission grants E.U. users the right to choose whether or not to apply the requirement in IFRS 17.22 for certain contracts. Allianz will not make use of this exemption and will apply IFRS 17 as issued by the IASB.

In the statement of financial position, deferred acquisition costs and insurance related receivables will no longer be presented separately but as part of the insurance liabilities. This change in presentation will lead to a reduction in total assets, offset by a reduction in total liabilities.

The amounts presented in the statement of financial performance need to be disaggregated into an insurance service result, consisting of the insurance revenue and the insurance service expenses, and insurance finance income and expenses. Income or expenses from reinsurance contracts held need to be presented separately from the expenses or income from insurance contracts issued.

Property-Casualty business

For non-life insurance contracts, the Allianz Group expects that a large part of the business qualifies for the premium allocation approach eligibility (the assessment performed as of the transition date has shown an eligibility of >95%). The premium allocation approach has similar mechanics as the current IFRS approach and therefore only limited impact on main result drivers and only limited judgmental areas for the underwriting result. The estimation of the expected claims with regard to the loss reserves is the main area of judgment for P/C business and remains unaffected by the introduction of IFRS 17.

The main changes for non-life insurance contracts comprise the mandatory discounting of loss reserves, a higher transparency of lossmaking portfolios due to a more granular onerous contract testing, and the introduction of the risk adjustment for non-financial risk. While loss reserves are undiscounted under current IFRS, except for annuity claims, loss reserves are discounted under IFRS 17. Due to the discounting accident year loss ratios will be lower under IFRS 17 compared to current IFRS but also more volatile due to changes in interest rates. The standard requires the determination of the interest curve using observable market data based on a risk-free base curve and portfolio specific adjustments to reflect the illiquidity of insurance obligations. In general, the risk-free base curve as well as the adjustments are determined consistently with Solvency II.

IFRS 17 requires to reflect expected losses over a contract's lifetime at initial recognition in the income statement and the balance sheet as a loss component. The approach is very similar to the current premium deficiency testing, but IFRS 17 requires the calculation on a more granular level. As offsetting with profitable sets of insurance contracts is not allowed, the increasing granularity leads to an increasing number of onerous sub-segments.

IFRS 17 does not prescribe a specific approach for determining the risk adjustment for non-financial risk. Allianz applies a Cost of Capital approach with a Cost of Capital rate of currently 6% as under Solvency II. Besides some minor differences, the main difference is that IFRS 17 requires reflection of risk diversification across subsidiaries, which is not allowed under Solvency II. Allianz currently applies a diversification factor of 73% leading to a diversification benefit of 27%.

Furthermore, IFRS 17 will change the presentation of insurance contract revenue; a gross written premium will no longer be presented in the statement of comprehensive income. Insurance contract revenue is defined in such a way as to achieve comparability with the revenue of other industries and, in particular, investment components may not be recognized as part of insurance contract revenue. From a P&L and KPI perspective, the general measurement model and premium allocation approach lead to almost identical results and the Allianz Group does not plan to provide general measurement model specific KPIs for the P/C segment. The (net) combined ratio will remain the main KPI for the P/C segment and will be defined as the sum of insurance service expenses and the reinsurance result, divided by insurance revenue.

Generally, the Allianz Group expects only limited impacts on the underwriting result. There will be a positive impact from the discounting of loss reserves, but, while the operating investment income (i.e. interest and dividends) will remain almost unchanged, the interest accretion on historic loss reserves will notably decrease the investment result. IFRS 17 contains an accounting policy option to recognize changes in financial parameters either in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income. This so-called "OCI option" can be exercised at the level of individual portfolios. The Allianz Group generally will make use of this option. Under this option, loss reserves are discounted for profit or loss with locked-in interest rates from the respective accident years and the discounting effect needs to be recognized as interest accretion in the investment result until reserves expire. The Allianz Group further expects only limited impact on equity at transition due to the offsetting impacts from discounting and risk adjustment for the measurement of loss reserves.

Life/Health business

For long-duration life insurance contracts, IFRS 17 is expected to have a significant impact on actuarial modeling, as more granular cash flow projections and regular updates of all assumptions will be required, either impacting profit or loss or the contractual service margin. Allianz re-uses the cash flow models developed for Solvency II reporting and embedded value to the extent possible and reasonable. Best estimate assumptions are in general consistent with Solvency II. However, specifications to cash flow models are made, if considered necessary. For example, IFRS 17 takes a more economic view on contract boundaries, i.e. requires anticipating renewals or top-up premiums to a larger extent than Solvency II in some cases.

The Allianz Group expects that direct participating business, where the rules on profit sharing are defined by legal/contractual rights, will qualify for the variable fee approach eligibility (approximately 2/3 of present value of future cash flows in the L/H segment). Indirect participating business, where the payments to the policyholder depend on the investment performance but there are no fixed rules on how the performance is passed on to the policyholders, as well as non-participating business, i.e. business without policyholder participation, including savings and risk business, will be accounted for under the general measurement model. The Allianz Group will continue to have unit-linked investment contracts (to be accounted for under IFRS 9) and unit-linked insurance contracts, which are contracts with significant insurance risk, e.g. via death or other insurance riders. The Allianz Group expects unit-linked insurance contracts to be eligible for the variable fee approach.

In the statement of financial position, the Allianz Group expects an increase of the insurance liabilities as these will be discounted with current rates and will contain an explicit future profit margin with the contractual service margin. Current IFRS equity contains the shareholder share of unrealized capital gains in other comprehensive income. These will be part of the insurance liabilities accounted for under the variable fee approach. These effects will result in a decrease of equity. In the income statement, the release of the contractual service margin and the risk adjustment for non-financial risk will become the main components for the operating profit of the L/H business.

Besides the qualitative impacts described above, the Allianz Group is currently assessing the quantitative impact of the application of IFRS 17. The final figures will also depend on the application of the transition approaches. IFRS 17 has to be applied retrospectively unless this is impracticable. Fulfillment cash flows are determined prospectively at every reporting date, including the date of initial application. However, the contractual service margin is rolledforward over time, a split of profits between equity ("earned profits") and contractual service margin ("unearned profits") is required, but is often very challenging due to the long-term nature of some (life) insurance contracts.

If a full retrospective application is impracticable, an entity can choose between a modified retrospective approach or a fair value approach. The objective of the modified retrospective approach is to use reasonable and supportable information available without undue cost or effort to achieve the closest possible outcome to full retrospective application. To the extent a retrospective determination is not possible, certain modifications are allowed. Under the fair value approach, the contractual service margin of a group of contracts at transition is determined as the difference between the fair value of this group at transition determined in accordance with IFRS 13 and the corresponding IFRS 17 fulfillment cash flows measures at transition. Besides the determination of the contractual service margin, another crucial topic at transition is the determination of historic interest rates. Allianz makes use of the introduction of Solvency II, which is the general basis for the interest rates as explained above.

Although the IFRS 17 implementation project has made significant progress, as of the date of the publication of these consolidated financial statements, it is not practicable to finally quantify the effects on the Allianz Group consolidated IFRS 17 opening balance sheet for the fiscal year 2022 or on any consolidated financial statements for subsequent periods. Therefore, it is also not practicable to disclose any quantitative impacts on KPIs, like e.g. operating profit or net income.

3 _ Invasion of Ukraine

The invasion of Ukraine concerns the Allianz Group as a business operator with economic and financial implications, as an employer, and as a member of the international community. The repercussions of the invasion of Ukraine and an escalation of geopolitical conflicts are unpredictable and have the potential to significantly impact international financial markets and economies, e.g. due to higher inflation – or even stagflation – from energy prices, lower equity prices, a widening of credit spreads, as well as a rise in credit defaults.

The Allianz Group expects to continue to remain sufficiently capitalized, in compliance with the regulatory Solvency Capital Requirement.

The Allianz Group is neither insuring new business nor making new investments on behalf of the own investment portfolio in Russia or Belarus. The operating entities are no longer underwriting new insurance business in Russia, and have decisively reduced exposure in an orderly manner.

With effect of 30 June 2022, the Russian operations of the Allianz Group are classified as a disposal group as held for sale. For further information, please see note 4.

Overall, the financial impact on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements is so far limited for the Allianz Group. In the first half-year of 2022, impairments on Russian and Belarussian debt securities in the amount of € 1.1 bn had a total net impact of € (0.2) bn: € (0.1) bn for the business segment Property-Casualty and € (0.1) bn for the business segment Life/Health, after policyholder participation and taxes.

4 _ Consolidation and classification as held for sale

European Reliance General Insurance Company S.A., Chalandri

On 28 July 2022, the Allianz Group completed through an over-thecounter transaction the acquisition of 72% of the shares of European Reliance General Insurance Company S.A., Chalandri, a leading Greek insurer, as agreed by virtue of certain share purchase agreements signed on 11 February 2022 with major shareholders.

During the period from 11 February 2022 and until 1 August 2022, the Allianz Group also acquired an additional 16% of the shares of European Reliance General Insurance Company S.A. on the stock exchange. The total consideration for these acquisitions amounts to € 0.2 bn. The Allianz Group intends to proceed acquiring the remaining minority shares through a statutory squeeze-out process.

The Allianz Group acquired approximately € 0.6 bn assets and € 0.4 bn liabilities. Overall, the impact of the transaction on the financial position of the Allianz Group is not material.

On 13 June 2022, the Allianz Group signed the agreement to transfer certain investment teams of AGI U.S. and the assets they manage with a volume of USD 101 bn to Voya Investment Management LLC, Atlanta, in consideration for a 24% equity stake and a global distribution agreement between the two firms.

5 _ Segment reporting

The business activities of the Allianz Group, the business segments as well as the products and services from which the reportable segments derive their revenues are consistent with those described in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021. The statement contained therein regarding general segment reporting information is still applicable and valid.

Effective 1 January 2022, the Allianz Group reorganized the structure of its insurance activities to reflect the changes in the responsibilities of the Board of Management. The insurance activities in Asia Pacific and Greece form a new reportable segment. In the business segment Property-Casualty, Allianz Direct and Allianz Partners were combined with the insurance activities in Western & Southern Europe to form the reportable segment Western & Southern Europe, Allianz Direct and Allianz Partners. Previously reported information has been adjusted to reflect this change in the composition of the Allianz Group's reportable segments.

Additionally, some minor reallocations between the reportable segments have been made.

As of 30 June 2022, fair values could not be reliably measured for equity investments whose carrying amounts totaled € 122 mn (31 December 2021: € 110 mn). These investments are primarily investments in privately held corporations and partnerships.

The following financial assets and liabilities are carried at fair value on a recurring basis:

  • − financial assets and liabilities held for trading,
  • − financial assets and liabilities designated at fair value through income,
  • − available-for-sale investments,
  • − financial assets and liabilities for unit-linked contracts, and
  • − financial liabilities for puttable financial instruments.

The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for financial instruments carried at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets as of 30 June 2022 and 31 December 2021:

In general, financial assets and liabilities are transferred from level 1 to level 2 when liquidity, trade frequency, and activity are no longer indicative of an active market. Conversely, the same policy applies for transfers from level 2 to level 1.

Transfers into/out of level 3 may occur due to a reassessment of the input parameters.

Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If financial assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at the time of impairment, or if fair value less cost to sell is used as the measurement basis under IFRS 5, corresponding disclosures can be found in note 27.

33 _ Other information

Allianz Group companies are involved in legal, regulatory, and arbitration proceedings in Germany and a number of foreign jurisdictions, including the United States. Such proceedings arise in the ordinary course of business, including, amongst others, their activities as insurance, banking and asset management companies, employers, investors and taxpayers. While it is not feasible to predict or determine the ultimate outcome of such proceedings, they may result in substantial damages or other payments or penalties, or result in adverse publicity and damage to the Allianz Group's reputation. As a result, such proceedings could have an adverse effect on the Allianz Group's business, financial condition and results of operations. Apart from the proceedings discussed below, Allianz SE is not aware of any threatened or pending legal, regulatory or arbitration proceedings which may have, or have had in the recent past, significant effects on its and/or the Allianz Group's financial position or profitability. Material proceedings in which Allianz Group companies are involved are in particular the following:

In September 2015, a class action complaint was filed against Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America ("Allianz Life") making allegations similar to those made in prior class actions regarding the sale of Allianz Life's annuity products, including allegations of breach of contract and violation of California's unfair competition law. The action was certified as a class action, the parties reached a settlement agreement in the low two-digit million U.S. dollar range, and the Court granted preliminary approval of the settlement. Allianz Life has made a provision for the estimated cost of settlement.

With respect to the multiple complaints which had been filed in U.S. Courts in connection with losses suffered by investors in AllianzGI U.S.'s Structured Alpha funds ("Funds") during the COVID-19 related market downturn, in the meantime all actions regarding private funds have been dismissed after settlements were reached with the respective investors. Currently there is one putative class action pending in a U.S. Court filed by an investor in a mutual fund.

In addition, as announced by ad-hoc disclosure on 17 May 2022, AllianzGI U.S. has entered into settlements with the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") in connection with the Structured Alpha matter. Pursuant to the DOJ resolution, AllianzGI U.S. pleaded guilty to one count of criminal securities fraud, and pursuant to the SEC resolution, the SEC found that AllianzGI U.S. violated relevant U.S. securities laws. These settlements fully resolve the U.S. governmental investigations of the Structured Alpha matter for Allianz.

As announced by ad-hoc disclosures on 17 February 2022 and 11 May 2022, Allianz recognized a provision of € 3.7 bn for the fourth quarter of 2021 and an additional provision of € 1.9 bn for the first quarter of 2022 for the Structured Alpha matter. As of 30 June 2022, the majority of the amounts provisioned have been paid out already for settlements with investors in the Funds and for payments to the U.S. authorities according to the resolutions reached with them. Allianz SE believes that the remaining provision is a fair estimate of its financial exposure in relation to any remaining compensation payments to Structured Alpha investors. Allianz is seeking a timely resolution with remaining fund investors and expects that the disclosure of additional information could have a negative impact on its position in the ongoing discussions with investors and therefore, in accordance with

IAS 37.92, management refrains from providing further details on the provision recognized as well as on any contingent liabilities.

The following table shows the composition of commitments as of 30 June 2022:

Any material contingent liabilities resulting from litigation matters are captured in the litigation section above. All other contingent liabilities and commitments had no significant changes compared to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021.

Based on data published by the International Monetary Fund in April 2022, Türkiye is considered to be a hyperinflationary economy for financial reporting purposes since the second quarter of 2022. Consequently, operating entities with Turkish lira (TRY) as their functional currency have to apply hyperinflation accounting in accordance with IAS 29 for reporting periods ending on or after 30 June 2022. In addition, IAS 29 is already applied by subsidiaries of the Allianz Group that operate in Argentina and Lebanon.

The identities and levels of the price indices applied by the operating entities concerned are as follows:

Overall, for the six months ended 30 June 2022, the application of hyperinflation accounting according to IAS 29 had a negative impact on net income of € (149) mn.

Transactions between Allianz SE and its subsidiaries that are to be deemed related parties have been eliminated in the consolidation and are not disclosed in the notes.

Business relations with joint ventures and associates are set on an arm's length basis.

Due to reinsurance agreements with the joint venture Enhanzed Reinsurance Ltd., Allianz SE recognized reinsurance assets and deposits retained for reinsurance ceded amounting to each € 2.1 bn in the first half-year of 2022.

REVIEW REPORT

To Allianz SE, Munich

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated interim financial statements - comprising the consolidated balance sheet, consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity, consolidated statement of cash flows and selected explanatory notes – and the interim group management report of Allianz SE, Munich, for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2022 which are part of the half-year financial report pursuant to § (Article) 115 WpHG ("Wertpapierhandelsgesetz": German Securities Trading Act). The preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU and of the interim group management report in accordance with the provisions of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports is the responsibility of the parent Company's Board of Managing Directors. Our responsibility is to issue a review report on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and on the interim group management report based on our review.

We conducted our review of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the interim group management report in accordance with German generally accepted standards for the review of financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (Institute of Public Auditors in Germany) (IDW). Those standards require that we plan and perform the review so that we can preclude through critical evaluation, with moderate assurance, that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU and that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the provisions of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures and therefore does not provide the assurance attainable in a financial statement audit. Since, in accordance with our engagement, we have not performed a financial statement audit, we cannot express an audit opinion.

Based on our review, no matters have come to our attention that cause us to presume that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU nor that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the provisions of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports.
