Operating result

The operating result rose by 22.0% to € 826 million, primarily driven by a strong increase in results across all business segments, most notably in Life, reflecting profitable business growth, improved investment margin and the realisation of cost synergies.

Operating result per segment

The operating result of the Non-life segment increased by 11.1% to € 261 million. The increase reflects improved pricing, the realisation of cost synergies and organic business growth. Additionally, both this half-year and the comparable period benefited from the absence of weather-related calamities. These developments are also reflected in the combined ratio of the Non-life segment (excluding Health), which improved 0.8%-points to 91.0%.

The operating result of the Life segment increased by 25.6% to € 618 million reflecting an increase in both the operating insurance service result (OISR, including other result) and the operating investment and finance result (OIFR). The OISR (including other result) increased by € 60 million to € 243 million, primarily due to less negative experience variance and higher contribution from associates. The OIFR increased by € 66 million to € 375 million, mainly due to a higher investment margin due to favorable government spread developments, increased equity and real estate exposure and a lower UFR drag in line with higher interest rates.

The operating result of the Asset Management segment increased by 15.4% to € 58 million, reflecting favorable developments within Mortgages and Real Estate.

The operating result of the Distribution and Services segment increased by 23.9% to € 29 million, primarily driven by organic growth and realisation of cost synergies.

The operating result in the Holding & Other segment (including Eliminations) decreased by 13.2% to € -140 million, mainly due to higher operating expenses and an increase in interest expenses. Interest expenses increased (€ 3 million) due to the issuance of the € 500 million Perpetual Restricted Tier 1 security in April 2025 in combination with the partial redemption of a Tier 2 security (€ 412 million).

Premiums and DC inflow

Total premium and Defined Contribution (DC) inflow increased by 60.1% to € 8,717 million, primarily driven by the closing of three pension buy-outs in Life for an amount of € 2.8 billion. Additionally, there was growth in Pension DC (15.9%), P&C and Disability (4.1%) and Health (21.0%).

Operating expenses

Operating expenses decreased by 0.9% to € 699 million, driven by realisation of cost synergies, partially offset by wage inflation and inflation on non-staff expenses. The internal number of FTE's decreased 0.5% to 7,337, mainly due to the integration of the Aegon Nederland business.

The expense ratio of P&C and Disability decreased by 0.7%-points to 7.2%, primarily due to realisation of cost synergies as well as economies of scale related to business growth.

Expenses for non-ordinary activities, classified as incidental items and therefore not included in operating expenses, increased by 11.3% to € 118 million. This increase primarily relates to integration costs for the business combination a.s.r.

  • 1 Comparative figures for number of FTEs adjusted due to change of scoping and improve comparability.
  • 2 CSM is from now on presented as net of re-insurance. The FY 2024 figure is adjusted by € -93 million to € 5,582 million.

and Aegon Nederland, as well as an adjustment to the duration of the amortisation of other intangible assets, which led to a non-recurring amortisation charge. This increase is partially offset by lower restructuring costs.

Result before tax and net result

The result before tax increased by € 57 million to € 168 million (2024: € 111 million) due to the increased operating result (€ 149 million), partially offset by a larger negative adjustment from investment related incidentals (€ -63 million) and other incidentals (€ -28 million).

In HY 2025, the adjustment of the investment and finance result to normalised investment returns includes market developments as well as a one-off finance charge related to the downward adjustment of the liability illiquidity premium (LIP) on the former a.s.r. portfolio, as part of harmonisation between a.s.r. and Aegon Nederland. In HY 2024, the adjustment was primarily due to revaluations related to higher interest rates.

The larger negative impact of other incidental items (€ -28 million) is related to higher expenses for non-ordinary activities as well as more negative adjustments on the insurance service result. The adjustments to the insurance service result mainly relate to changes of future services on onerous contracts in the Non-life segment, partially offset by a non-recurring adjustment in the other result of HY 2024.

The IFRS result attributable to holders of equity instruments amounted to € 130 million (2024: € -70 million of which € -154 million discontinued operations Knab), with an effective tax rate of 20.7% (2024: 21.4%).

Operating return on equity

The operating return on equity increased by 0.8%-points to 14.4% (2024: 13.6%), exceeding the target of >12%.

Solvency II ratio and organic capital creation (OCC)

The Solvency II ratio increased to 203% (31 December 2024: 198%), reflecting a strong contribution from the OCC (12% points), which more than offset the impact of the closing of three pension buy-outs (-4%-points) and capital distributions (-6%-points). Market and operational developments contributed positively (2%-points), driven by favourable movements in interest rates, real estate revaluations, and mortgage spread tightening. These were partially offset by a negative impact from equities, reflecting increased SCR due to an increased symmetric adjustment. Additionally, the Solvency II ratio benefited from a 1%-point impact following the issuance of a € 500 million Perpetual Restricted Tier 1 security in April 2025, in combination with the partial redemption of a Tier 2 security (€ 412 million).

OCC increased by € 63 million to € 721 million (HY 2024: € 658 million), primarily reflecting enhanced finance capital generation. This was driven by a higher investment margin resulting from the re-risking of the investment portfolio, wider fixed income spreads, a reduced drag from the UFR, improved business performance and the realisation of cost synergies.

Dividend and capital distribution

a.s.r. will pay an interim dividend for 2025 of € 1.27 per share on the first of September 2025. The interim dividend to be distributed is expected to amount to € 262 million in line with the dividend policy, equal to 40% of the dividend over 2024.

The € 125 million share buy-back announced at the full-year results in February 2025 was completed in the first half year of 2025.

Group and business targets

a.s.r. remains on track to achieve the medium-term group and business targets. The progress on the group and business targets is part of the notes for a.s.r. and the segments in this press release.

Non-financial targets

  • Customer satisfaction, measured through the Net Promoter Score (NPS-interaction), increased 4 points to 22, compared to 18 points per 31 December 2024. NPS-i is a mix of NPS-c (contact) and NPS-d (digital) and the improvement in the first half of this year mainly relates to a relative larger share of NPS-c contributions which generally have a better NPS-score, in addition to an underlying improvement in NPS-d.
  • The carbon footprint of the investment portfolio decreased by 6.8% in HY 2025 compared to basis year 2023, exceeding the linear reduction required to meet the 2030 target of -25%. The reduction is driven by lower emissions across various asset classes, particularly in real estate and mortgages.
  • Employee engagement, measured in the annual Denison survey, stood at 71 in HY 2025. This score reflects a slight decline from 2024 and highlights differences between business units at various stages of the Aegon Nederland integration.
  • The sustainable reputation score rose to 40% in HY 2025 (FY 2024: 39%), remaining within the target range of 38–43%. The increase is supported by campaigns that focus on sustainable damage repair.
  • Gender diversity within management as at HY 2025 is 33% female and 67% male. The Supervisory Board comprised 43% female representation, the Management Board 50%, and management 33%. The ambition remains to achieve at least 40% female and male representation by 2026.
  • Impact investments accounted for 8.7% of the investment portfolio in HY 2025, in line with FY 2024.

Premium volume

Premiums increased by € 261 million to € 3,484 million, reflecting organic growth in P&C and Disability, as well as an increase in Health, driven by growth of the customer base. The organic growth in P&C and Disability amounted to 4.1%, which is in the middle of the 3-5% target range. In P&C, growth was mostly driven by price increases implemented over the past two years to mitigate claims inflation, alongside volume growth. In Disability, growth stemmed mainly from new business of Loyalis as well as price increases introduced last year. In Health, premium volume increased by 21.0%, attributable to an increase of 77 thousand customers during the 2025 policy renewal season.

Operating result

The operating result of the Non-life segment rose by 11.1% to € 261 million, reflecting improved pricing, the realisation of cost synergies and organic business growth. Both this half-year and the comparable period last year benefited from the absence of weather-related calamities.

In P&C, the operating result improved as a result of the price increases, which were introduced over the past two years, as well as volume growth and a lower cost ratio due to realisation of cost synergies. And as mentioned, both this half-year and the comparable period benefited from the absence of weather-related calamities. In Disability, the operating result for HY 2025 increased due to improved pricing and strong underlying performance. There was an offset between non-recurring benefits from provisioning harmonisation and additional provisioning on group disability portfolios. Group disability has experienced adverse claims development due to elevated incidence rates, especially related to psychological absenteeism and long COVID. In Health, premium volume growth contributed to an increase in the operating result. The operating investment and finance result within the Non-life segment remained stable at approximately € 70 million.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses declined by 7.5% to € 187 million, primarily due to synergies from the integration of the Aegon P&C and Disability portfolios onto the target platforms. The expense ratio of the segment, excluding Health, decreased by 0.7%-points to 7.2%, reflecting these synergies as well as economies of scale resulting portfolio growth.

  • 1 The Non-life segment consists of non-life insurance entities and their subsidiaries. These non-life insurance entities offer Non-life insurance contracts such as disability insurance, property and casualty insurance and health insurance.
  • 2 Premiums received HY 2024 for P&C and Disability organically restated compared to HY 2024 press release to include the premiums received in HY 2024 related to Aegon Nederland Non-life to make this figure comparable to HY 2025.
  • 3 n.m.: not meaningful.

Combined ratio

The combined ratio for the segment excluding Health improved by 0.8%-point to 91.0%, below the target range of 92-94%. This improvement is attributable to the developments outlined in the operating result section.

In P&C, the combined ratio improved to 91.4% (2024: 92.2%) due to premium increases and cost synergies. In Disability, the combined ratio decreased by 0.8%-point to 90.7%, driven by strong underlying performance. The combined ratio for Health decreased by 0.6%-points to 98.7%, primarily due to growth and one-off benefits arising from updated insights into previous claim years provided by the Dutch Health institute.

Result before tax

Result before tax decreased by € 100 million to € 67 million, despite a higher operating result, due to a larger negative impact from incidental items. The investment related incidentals amounted to € -131 million in HY 2025 (2024: € -25 million), driven by market developments and adjustment of the LIP parameter as a result of harmonisation efforts, which increased the market value of the provision. Non-investment related incidental items amounted to € -63 million (2024: € -43 million), primarily reflecting the impact of changes to future services on onerous contracts, inflation effects on the Liability of Incurred Claims and amortisation of the pre-recognition interest rate hedged developments prior to initial CSM recognition.

Premium and DC inflow

Premium and DC inflow in the Life segment increased by 136.7% to € 5.3 billion (HY 2024: € 2.2 billion), primarily driven by three pension buy-outs totalling € 2.8 billion.

Pension DC inflow rose by 15.9% to € 1.5 billion driven by organic growth. The annuity inflow increased 8.0% to € 316 million, reflecting higher DC accumulation.

Including the first pension buy-out of 2024 (€ 69 million) the total amount of pension buy-outs now stands at € 2.9 billion. Combined with the realised DC and annuity inflow, a.s.r. remains well-positioned to achieve the growth targets in the Pension business as outlined during the Capital Markets Day in June 2024.

Assets under Management (AuM) of DC pensions increased to € 27.4 billion (FY 2024: € 26.7 billion) driven by net inflows, partially offset by the impact from higher interest rates.

1 The Life segment comprises the life insurance entities and their subsidiaries. The life insurance entities offer financial products such as life insurance contracts and life insurance contracts on behalf of policyholders. The Life segment also includes ASR Premiepensioeninstelling N.V. (a.s.r. IORP) which offers investment contracts to policyholders that bear no insurance risk and for which the actual return on investments allocated to the contract is passed on to the policyholder. Furthermore, ASR Vooruit B.V., the investment firm that performs activities related to private investing for customers, is included.

2 n.m.: not meaningful.

Operating result

The operating result increased by 25.6% to € 618 million, reflecting an increase in both the operating insurance service result (OISR, including other result) and the operating investment and finance result (OIFR).

The OISR (including other result) increased by € 60 million to € 243 million, mainly due to less negative experience variance, following a methodology change related to the transfer of collective pension entitlements, and higher contribution from associates.

The OIFR increased by € 66 million to € 375 million, primarily driven by a higher investment margin, supported by favorable government spread developments, increased equity and real estate exposure, and a lower UFR drag consistent with higher interest rates.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses decreased by 3.3% to € 234 million (HY 2024: € 242 million), due to realisation of cost synergies.

Result before tax

The IFRS result before tax increased by € 279 million to € 442 million (HY 2024: € 162 million). The operating result is partially offset by investment related incidentals. Investments related incidental items amounted to € -178 million, impacted by market developments and the adjustment of the LIP parameter in HY 2025, as a result of harmonisation efforts, which led to an increase in the market value of the provision. Non-investment related incidental items amounted to € 2 million.

Mortgage origination (€ billion) 4.5 4.3 4.8%

Operating result

The operating result of the Asset Management segment increased by 15.4% to € 58 million, primarily driven by strong business performance and higher internal fees at Real Estate.

Assets under Management

Assets under Management for third parties decreased by € 0.6 billion to € 34.2 billion, mainly due to net outflows, including a pension buyout deal that transferred the assets to the general account. This was partially offset by positive revaluations across nearly all of our real estate funds.

Mortgages

Mortgage origination increased by € 0.2 billion to € 4.5 billion, reflecting increased demand in the housing market. Of this, € 0.4 billion of the mortgage origination was related to Knab.

The mortgages under administration amounted to € 87.4 billion (2024: € 86.6 billion), of which € 11.0 billion pertains to Knab. The quality of the mortgage portfolio remains very strong. Payment arrears exceeding two months continue to be less than 0.1% for the total mortgage portfolio and credit losses remain negligible.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses remained relatively stable at € 122 million. Increased license fee expenses were offset by realised cost synergies.

Result before tax

The IFRS result before tax increased by € 11 million to € 40 million (2024: € 29 million), reflecting both an improvement in the operating result and a less adverse impact from incidental items compared to the previous year.

Fee income

Fee income increased 13.1% to € 204 million, supported by increased pricing and higher volumes, attributable to organic business growth and a minor acquisition.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses rose by 7.7% to € 169 million, reflecting wage inflation, increased holding charges, and the impact of a minor acquisition, partially offset by realised cost synergies.

Incidental items

The incidental items amounted to € -7 million, primarily due to additional investments by TKP in response to regulatory pension reform, and the amortisation of intangible assets.

The IFRS result before tax increased by € 11 million to € 22 million (2024: € 11 million), reflecting a higher operating result and reduced incidental expenses.

1 The Distribution and Services segment includes activities relating to the distribution of insurance contracts and includes among others the financial intermediary business of Van Kampen Groep, Dutch ID, SuperGarant, Poliservice, Nedasco, Robidus and TKP.

Result attributable to holders of equity instruments -293 -178 -64.9%

Operating result

The operating result of the Holding & Other segment (including eliminations) decreased by € 16 million to € -140 million, primarily due to higher operating expenses and increased interest expenses.

Interest expenses increased by € 3 million, following the issuance of a € 500 million Perpetual Restricted Tier 1 security in April 2025, carrying a fixed-rate coupon of 6.5%, and the partial redemption (€ 412 million) of a Tier 2 security, with a fixed-rate coupon of 5.125%.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses increased by € 7 million to € -12 million (2024: € -19 million), mainly due to higher IT infrastructure charges. These charges will be phased out following integration activities. This increase is partially offset by eliminations related to intercompany investment operating expenses.

Expenses for non-ordinary activities, classified as incidental items and therefore not included in operating expenses, decreased by € 10 million to € 55 million. This decline primarily reflects lower regulatory project expenses, partially offset by increased costs related to the integration of Aegon Nederland.

Result before tax

The result before tax decreased by € 143 million to € -402 million (2024: € -259 million), reflecting a reduction in investment related incidentals. This reduction is mainly attributable to interest rate movements and the adjustment of the LIP parameter, resulting from harmonisation between a.s.r. and Aegon Nederland, impacting a.s.r.'s own pension scheme. Additionally, the lower result before tax reflects the impact of a lower operating result (€ 16 million) and less negative non-investment related incidentals (€ 7 million).

1 The Holding and Other segment consists primarily of the holding activities of a.s.r. (including the group related activities), other holding and intermediate holding companies, the real estate development business (ASR Vastgoed Projecten B.V.), ASR Vitaliteit & Preventieve Diensten B.V (Vitality) and the smaller participations of ASR Deelnemingen N.V.

Solvency II ratio 203% 198% 5%-p

The Solvency II ratio increased to 203% (31 December 2024: 198%), reflecting a strong contribution from the OCC (12% points), which more than offset the impact of the closing of three pension buy-outs (-4%-points) and capital distributions (-6%-points). Market and operational developments contributed positively (2%-points), driven by favourable movements in interest rates, real estate revaluations, and mortgage spread tightening. These were partially offset by a negative impact from equities, reflecting increased SCR due to an increased symmetric adjustment. Additionally, the Solvency II ratio benefited from a 1%-point impact following the issuance of a € 500 million Perpetual Restricted Tier 1 security in April 2025, in combination with the partial redemption of a Tier 2 security (€ 412 million).

Capital distributions amounted to € 387 million, comprising an interim dividend (€ 262 million) and a share buyback (€ 125 million).

OCC increased by € 63 million to € 721 million (HY 2024: € 658 million), primarily reflecting enhanced finance capital generation. This was driven by a higher investment margin resulting from the re-risking of the investment portfolio, wider fixed income spreads, a reduced drag from the UFR, improved business performance and the realisation of cost synergies.

Eligible Own Funds

Eligible own funds increased to € 12,606 million (31 December 2024: € 12,321 million), mainly due to OCC growth, positive market and operational developments, and movements in hybrid capital instruments. These were partially offset by the impact of three pension buy-out transactions and capital distributions.

Required Capital

Required capital decreased to € 6,199 million (31 December 2024: € 6,209 million), reflecting the positive impact from OCC and market and operational developments (primarily interest rate movements). This was partially offset by an increase in SCR due to the closing of three pension buy-out transactions.

Total equity attributable to holders of equity instruments (IFRS-based) increased by € 76 million to € 9,862 million (31 December 2024: € 9,786 million). This increase primarily reflects the net result for the period of € 130 million and the issuance of a € 500 million Perpetual Restricted Tier 1 instrument. These positive effects were partly offset by the final dividend payment of € 405 million and the repurchase of treasury shares under the share buyback programme.

The CSM increased by € 219 million to € 5,801 million (31 December 2024: € 5,582 million), primarily driven by changes in estimates and business growth. The CSM of the Non-life segment (Disability) increased by € 61 million to € 335 million, while the Life segment (Funeral, Pensions and Individual life) increased by € 158 million to € 5,467 million.

Of the total increase, € 207 million was attributable to profitable new business, comprising € 118 million from the Disability segment (FY 2024: € 101 million) and € 89 million from the Life segment (FY 2024: € 31 million). The year-on-year increase reflects the impact of pension buy-outs in the Life segment and improved pricing and business growth in the Non-life segment.

The CSM increase resulting from interest accretion amounted to € 65 million, of which € 59 million related to the Life segment and € 6 million to the Non-life segment.

Changes in estimates totalled € 168 million, reflecting experience developments and updates to assumptions regarding future services. These changes were attributable to the Life segment (€ 164 million) and the Non-life segment (€ 3 million). The HY 2025 changes in estimates were mainly driven by experience developments, whereas the FY 2024 changes were primarily due to updates in cost and mortality assumption updates, which are reviewed annually in the second half of the year.

The release of CSM amounted to € 220 million, based on the services provided during the coverage period. This comprised € 154 million from the Life segment and € 66 million from the Non-life segment.

The financial leverage is calculated using clean values of the loans (i.e. excluding accrued interest). These are divided by equity attributable to shareholders including the CSM (net of tax) and financial liabilities.

a.s.r.'s financial leverage increased by 0.8%-points to 22.5% (2024: 21.7%), primarily due to an increase in financial liabilities of € 89 million in 2025. This reflects the issuance of a new € 500 million Restricted Tier 1 instrument, partially offset by the € 412 million redemption of the 2015 Tier 2 security (subordinated liability). Movements in shareholder equity (€ -424 million) and the CSM net of tax (€ 163 million) resulted in a net decrease of € 261 million in the basis for calculating financial leverage.

The interest coverage ratio, based on operating result, increased by 1.1x to 9.5x (2024: 8.4x), driven by an increase in operating result while interest expenses remained stable. The interest coverage ratio based on IFRS result amounted to 2.4x, reflecting a lower IFRS result compared to operating result due to negative adjustments from both investment and non-investment related incidentals.

Financial markets

Economic developments in the first half of 2025

At the start of 2025, the global economy seemed to be in relatively calm waters, but this changed with US President Trump's announcement of much higher than expected trade tariffs on the so-called 'Liberation Day', on 2 April. The initial consequences of Trump's announcement were already apparent before 'Liberation Day', i.e. in a sharp increase in imports to the US towards the end of the first quarter. Mainly for this reason, US economic growth fell below 0% in the first quarter, the first time in three years that the US economy showed a contraction. For the European economy, 2025 started relatively well, with growth of 0.6% quarterly (1.5% year-on-year) in the first quarter. To emerging markets, Trump's trade tariffs pose a greater threat than to Europe, due to their on-average greater dependence on exports to the US. This certainly applies to the Chinese economy, which already showed a disappointing growth of 1.2% on a quarterly basis in the first quarter of 2025.

After the 'inflation wave' of 2021-2022, the inflation picture has improved further recently, both in the eurozone and in the US. In the eurozone, headline inflation is now 2.0% and in the US 2.4%. Although inflation is a bit higher in the Netherlands (2.5%) it tends to move in line with Eurozone inflation and has been declining as well. 'Core inflation' (excluding volatile food and energy prices) is also slowly declining further, but remains above the Fed's and ECB's 2% inflation targets at 2.3% in the eurozone and 2.8% in the US. For central banks, the question is whether the improved inflation figures will now also bring an end to the recent series of interest rate cuts. For the ECB, this seems to be the case. After four rate cuts in the first half of 2025, the base rate in the eurozone is now at 2%. The US central bank, the Fed, has left the base rate unchanged for the past six months, at 4.5%.

Financial markets in the first half of 2025

Equity markets went through a volatile first half of 2025. Most strikingly, European stock markets performed well above average, with returns ranging from about 5% for the French stock market to about 20% for German and Spanish stock indices. Despite a sharp decline in April, US stock markets have also yielded positive returns of around 5%, but due to the sharp depreciation of the US dollar of more than 10% (the sharpest depreciation of the dollar on a six-month basis since 1973), US equities have actually yielded negative returns for euro investors. Bond markets have experienced a considerably less exciting half year than equity markets, with mostly slightly positive returns since the beginning of 2025, ranging from 0.5% for European government bonds to around 2% for European investment grade corporate bonds and around 3% for European high yield corporate bonds.

Economic and financial market outlook for the second half of 2025

At the beginning of this year, the IMF was still counting on global economic growth of 3.3% for both 2025 and 2026, but the IMF now expects the global economy to grow by only 2.8% in 2025 and 3.0% in 2026. The strongest downward revision to growth expectations is for the US, which is now expected to grow by just 1.5-2% in both 2025 and 2026. For the European economy, too, the coming quarters are not expected to be as good as the first quarter of this year, partly due to the strong euro and the ongoing threat of a trade war with the US, but in the longer term, the outlook for the eurozone has improved rather than deteriorated recently. This is partly due to the new German government, which seems more willing than previous governments to take growth-enhancing measures. In other European countries, too, the willingness of governments and companies to invest appears to have increased, including in infrastructure and the defence industry.

The inflation outlook for the coming period is mixed. The deteriorating growth outlook for the global economy could lead to a gradual decline in inflationary pressures, for example through rising unemployment and more moderate wage developments. On the other hand, governments in both the eurozone and the US have big plans to spend more money, and that in turn could lead to rising inflationary pressures, especially in the longer term. As far as monetary policy is concerned, the interest rate market for the ECB is still counting on at most one base rate cut for the next six months. For the US central bank, the picture is less clear. Further rising budget deficits, especially in combination with the threat of a trade war, could contribute to renewed inflationary pressures and thus to the need to keep interest rates high. For the time being, however, the interest rate market assumes that inflationary pressures will remain sufficiently moderate, and/or that economic growth will come under such pressure that the Fed will lower the base rate (currently 4.5%) further, to 3-3.5% in the course of next year.

The outlook for financial markets is not unequivocally favourable. Although the US has signed trade deals with the EU, UK, and Japan, these resemble framework agreements rather than detailed treaties. As a result, uncertainty around US trade policy—and its impact on the global economy—remains high, with little sign of near-term clarity. This is potentially detrimental to equities. Additionally, with the recent price recovery on stock markets (since mid-April), equities, and certainly US equities, are now relatively expensive again. For bond markets, increased public spending (e.g. in the context of the 'One Big Beautiful Bill' in the US and defence and infrastructure investments in Europe), and thus potentially higher debt burdens and rising inflation risks, pose a threat, especially in the longer term. In addition, above-average (geo-)political risks can still cause periods of increased volatility in financial markets.

Operational risk

The operational risk profile of a.s.r. in the first half of 2025 reflects a continuation of strategic and operational challenges, with several developments. The integration of Aegon NL has reached key milestones, including successful migrations of parts of the life portfolio and a large portion of the mortgage portfolio. Remaining risks are concentrated around the departure of key personnel and the cumulative impact of integration steps planned for late 2025 and early 2026. Strategic and operational risks are explicitly monitored and reported upon in the Business Risk Committees and Non-Financial Risk Committee. The risks are closely monitored by the Management Board and relevant steering committees. (Geo)political risks remain elevated due to global instability, including developments in the US, Middle East, and Ukraine. a.s.r. has taken additional measures to prepare for potential national disruptions, such as a 72-hour power outage scenario. In addition, there is stagnation in political decision-making regarding a number of important issues (e.g. nitrogen) and implementation problems with regard to disability. The aforementioned inherent risks haven't materially impacted the a.s.r. operational risk profile so far.

Geopolitical developments

The risk of non-compliance with sanctions legislation is closely monitored and followed. a.s.r. continues to apply enhanced screening and customer portfolio checks. In the first half of 2025, additional resilience measures were implemented, including contingency planning for a national power outage. Preparations include satellite communication and emergency protocols to ensure continuity of critical processes.

Developments in solvency

The Solvency II ratio increased to 203% (31 December 2024: 198%). This reflects a strong contribution from the OCC (12% points) which more than offsets the impact of the closing of three pension buy-outs (-4%-points) and capital distributions (-6%-points). Market and operational developments contribute positively to the solvency ratio (+2%-points). Market and operational developments contributed positively (2%-points), driven by favourable movements in interest rates, real estate revaluations, and mortgage spread tightening. These were partially offset by a negative impact from equities, reflecting increased SCR due to an increased symmetric adjustment.Additionally, the Solvency II ratio benefited from a 1%-point impact following the issuance of a € 500 million Perpetual Restricted Tier 1 security in April 2025, in combination with the partial redemption of a Perpetual Tier 2 security (€ 412 million).

Capital distributions amounted to € 387 million, comprising an interim dividend (€ 262 million) and a share buyback (€ 125 million).

Eligible own funds increased to € 12,606 million (31 December 2024: € 12,321 million), mainly due to OCC growth, positive market and operational developments, and movements in hybrid capital instruments. These were partially offset by the impact of three pension buy-out transactions and capital distributions.

Required capital decreased to € 6,199 million (31 December 2024: € 6,209 million), reflecting the positive impact from OCC and market and operational developments (primarily interest rate movements). This was partially offset by an increase in SCR due to the closing of three pension buy-out transactions.

Risk Taxonomy

In the second quarter of 2025 the Risk Taxonomy is applied after approval by the a.s.r. Risk Committee. The Risk Taxonomy aims consistency between the Standard Formula and Partial Internal Model entities within a.s.r., where both the Standard Formula and Internal Model risks are included. The Risk Taxonomy has no impact on the outcome of the SCR, it only impacts the presentation and the mapping of the underlying risk components.

Partial Internal Model

The implementation of the Partial Internal Model (PIM) for a.s.r. life is progressing according to plan. The formal review period for the PIM by the Dutch Central Bank has started and is on track to receive approval before the end of 2025.

Capital generation

Whitin a.s.r., the definition of organic capital creation (OCC) covers Finance Capital Generation, Business Capital Generation and Net SCR impact. It gives an indication of the capital created during the regular course of business.

OCC increased by € 63 million to € 721 million (HY 2024: € 658 million), primarily reflecting enhanced finance capital generation. This was driven by a higher investment margin resulting from the re-risking of the investment portfolio, wider fixed income spreads, a reduced drag from the UFR, improved business performance and the realisation of cost synergies. The figure below shows the OCC as part of the overall movement of the solvency ratio from period FY 2024 to the HY 2025.

OCC by segment

Life segment OCC increased by € 69 million mostly as a result of increased finance capital generation. Investment margin increased from widened government spread and higher exposure to equity and real estate (both from re-risking and positive revaluations).

Non-life segment benefitted from strong underwriting results in all business lines (P&C, Disability, and Health). This was offset by higher capital strains from growth in Health and P&C.

OCC for Asset management and Distribution & Services is the post tax operating result. Holding & Other OCC consists mainly of hybrid costs and holding expenses.

Solvency II sensitivities - explanation

Expected development ultimate forward rate

The European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) will continue to monitor and adjust the ultimate forward rate used to extrapolate insurers' discount curves to better reflect expected inflation and real interest rates. The applicable UFR in 2025 is 3.30% and remained unchanged compared to 2024. The impact on the solvency ratio (including financial institutions) of various UFR levels is shown below.

Capital management objectives

Management

a.s.r. currently intends to consider investing capital above the management target Solvency II ratio (calculated based on the partial internal model) of 160% with the objective of creating value for its shareholders. If and when a.s.r. operates at a certain level (which may change over time) that is considerably above the management target, and it assesses that it cannot invest this capital in value-creating opportunities for a prolonged period of time, a.s.r. may decide, but is not obliged, to return (part of this) capital to its shareholders.

If a.s.r. chooses to return capital, it plans to do so in a form that is efficient for shareholders at that time. a.s.r. actively manages its in-force business, which is expected to result in free capital generation over time. Additionally, business improvement and balance sheet restructuring should improve the capital generation capacity while advancing the risk profile of the company. The legal entities are individually capitalised and excess capital over management's targets for the legal entities is intended to be upstreamed to the holding company as far as is needed for amongst others covering external dividend, coupon payments on hybrids/senior financing instruments and holding costs and in so far the local regulations and the internal risk appetite statement allow. Excess capital that is upstreamed to the holding company adds up to the Holding liquidity for the time it is not used for cash outflows at the Holding level. The capital and cash attribution to the holding is closely monitored and managed on a continuous basis.

Objectives

The group is committed to maintain a strong capital position in order to be a robust and sustainable insurer for its policyholders and other stakeholders. The objective is to maintain a Solvency II ratio well above the minimum levels as defined in the risk appetite statements and above the relevant management threshold levels. Sensitivities are periodically performed for principal risks and annual stress tests are performed to test a.s.r.'s robustness to withstand moderate to severe scenarios. An additional objective is to achieve a combination of a capital position and a risk profile that is at least in line with a 'single A' rating by Standard & Poor's.

The SCR is reported on a quarterly basis and proxies are made on both a monthly and weekly basis. The internal minimum Solvency II ratio for a.s.r. as formulated in the risk appetite statement is 120%. The lower limit solvency target is 140%. The management threshold level for the Solvency II ratio is above 160%. The Solvency II ratio was 203% at 30 June 2025 after the deduction of foreseeable (interim) dividend, which was comfortably above the management threshold level of 160%.

Capital management actions

a.s.r. closely monitors the development of its capital position in relation to the Capital and Dividend Policy. The close monitoring shows a continuing robust Solvency II position throughout the first half of 2025, owing to strong risk management and effective hedging strategies. a.s.r. made some continuing improvements to the portfolio and the hedging positions to further improve the resilience and profitability of the investment portfolio and to align its investment portfolio with the outcomes of the Strategic Asset Allocation Study of 2024. a.s.r. will continue to closely monitor the solvency position in the future.

Furthermore, during the first half of 2025, a.s.r. paid out its final dividend relating to 2024 of € 1.96 per share. Combined with the interim dividend 2024 of € 1.16 per share paid in September 2024, the total dividend amounted to € 3.12 per share or € 654 million in total.

During the first half year of 2025, a.s.r. also purchased 2,403,923 of own shares at an average price of € 52.00 per share, resulting in a total capital distribution of € 125 million. a.s.r. will seek approval from the General Meeting of Shareholders in 2026 to cancel the repurchased shares.

In June 2025, a.s.r. announced its share buyback programme, as part of the employee share purchase plans, for the amount of 300 thousand shares. Therefore, during HY 2025, a.s.r. repurchased 153 thousand shares under an open market share buyback programme for an amount of € 8 million (average share price € 55.14). The repurchase was completed in July 2025.

a.s.r. will pay an interim dividend over 2025 of € 262 million, based on 40% of the total distributed regular dividend over the fiscal year 2024). Based on the expected outstanding shares as per the payment day of the interim dividend, this would result in an interim dividend per share of € 1.27. The dividend payment is fully funded by the available cash buffer at holding level given a.o. upstreams from the operating companies. The liquidity buffer consists of a combination of cash on the bank account and liquid investments. At half year 2025, the cash buffer is € 881 million (FY 2024: € 893 million), which is above the intra-year target of € 292 million (anticipating on interim dividend and Tier 2 repayment).

In the first quarter of 2025, a.s.r. successfully issued € 500 million in Subordinated Restricted Tier 1 securities, carrying a fixed coupon of 6.5% per annum until the first reset date in 2035. The net proceeds from this issue were mainly used to repurchase € 412 million of the a.s.r. 5.125% Tier 2 notes (from total outstanding amount of € 500 million of this Tier 2 capital instrument, having a first call date at 29 September 2025).

The table below shows a.s.r.'s capital position.

Consolidated interim statement of changes in equity

The unrealised actuarial gains and losses increased in HY 2025 by € 51 million after tax and € 69 million before tax (HY 2024: increased by € 117 million after tax and € 157 million before tax). Further information related to employee benefits is disclosed in section 6.6.

The increase in capital of non-controlling interest relates to a capital injection by a minority shareholder in the ASR Dutch Science Parc Fund (ASR DSPF). During HY 2025, a.s.r. lost control of ASR DSPF as voting rights for a.s.r. are capped to 40% following a change in the fund agreement, resulting in deconsolidation of ASR DSPF.

In February 2025, a.s.r. announced a share buyback programme, for an amount of € 125 million. The repurchase was completed on 6 May 2025. In total, during HY 2025, a.s.r. repurchased 2,404 thousand shares under an open market share buyback programme for an amount of € 125 million (average share price € 52.00).

In June 2025, a.s.r. announced its share buyback programme, as part of the employee share purchase plans, for the amount of 300 thousand shares. Therefore, during HY 2025, a.s.r. repurchased 153 thousand shares under an open market share buyback programme for an amount of € 8 million (average share price € 55.14). The repurchase of the 300 thousand shares was completed in July 2025.

a.s.r. sold 125 thousand shares (HY 2024: 139 thousand shares) for an amount of € 5 million (HY 2024: € 6 million), as part of the employee share purchase plans, leading to a decrease of € 0.3 million (HY 2024: € 1.1 million) in retained earnings. The amount of treasury shares held as at HY 2025 of € 237 million FY 2024: € 109 million) represents 4,851 thousand treasury shares (FY 2024: 2,425 thousand). In the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders on 21 May 2025 the resolution was adopted to cancel 2,213 thousand shares which were acquired in 2024. The cancellation has been effected in July 2025.

4 Accounting policies

4.1 General

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of a.s.r. for the first half year ended 30 June 2025 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted for use within the European Union (EU). They do not contain all of the information required for complete consolidated financial statements and must therefore be read in conjunction with the 2024 consolidated financial statements of a.s.r. These are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) – including IAS standards and Interpretations – as adopted for use within the EU and with the financial reporting requirements included in Title 9, book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code, where applicable. a.s.r.'s interpretation of the EU-IFRS is included in the a.s.r. accounting manual. a.s.r. has elected to continue to apply the hedge accounting requirements of IAS 39 for macro fair value hedges (EU 'carve out') on adoption of IFRS 9.

4.2 Changes in EU endorsed published IFRS Standards and Interpretations effective in 2025

In 2025, no changes in EU endorsed published IFRS Standards and Interpretations are relevant to a.s.r.

4.3 Changes in presentation

The current presentation differs from last year's presentation in the 2024 half year report in some aspects. Where applicable, in accordance with IFRS, comparative figures have been included in the new presentation format to ensure comparability. These immaterial (on a qualitative basis) changes in presentation have no impact on a.s.r.'s past or future financial position, financial performance, or cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities.

The following restatement, given its nature, is explained in more detail:

Changes to the presentation of the Consolidated interim statement of cash flows:

Due to a reassessment of the presentation of the cash flow statement in the 2024 consolidated financial statements, the comparative figures for the first half year of 2024 for the cash flows from operating activities were adjusted for the revaluation through profit or loss (€ 370 million) as part of the adjustment for non-cash items included in the result, with a corresponding opposite adjustment in the changes in operating assets and liabilities.

4.4 Upcoming changes in published IFRS standards and Interpretations

The following new standards, amendments to existing standards and interpretations, relevant to a.s.r. and published prior to 1 July 2025 and effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026, were not early adopted by a.s.r.:

• IFRS 18: Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (2027)

IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1, carrying forward many of the requirements in IAS 1 unchanged and introduces the following key requirements:

  • present specified categories and defined subtotals in the income statement;
  • provide disclosures on management-defined performance measures (MPMs) in the notes to the financial statements;
  • improve aggregation and disaggregation;
  • the operating profit subtotal is the starting point for the statement of cash flows when presenting the operating cash flows under the direct method.

a.s.r. is currently working to identify all impacts the amendments will have on the primary financial statements and notes to the financial statements. IFRS 18 will be applied retrospectively from 1 January 2027.

4.5 Estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the interim financial statements requires a.s.r. to make estimates and assumptions that have an effect on the reported amounts in the interim financial statements.

These relate primarily to the following:

  • The estimated useful life, residual value and fair value of property, plant and equipment, investment property, and intangible assets;
  • The fair value and impairments of unlisted financial instruments;
  • The recoverable amount of (impaired) assets;
  • The fair value used to determine the net asset value in acquisitions;
  • The measurement of insurance contract liabilities and liabilities arising from direct participating insurance contracts (see section 6.4);
  • Actuarial assumptions used for measuring employee benefit obligations;
  • When forming provisions, the required estimate of existing obligations arising from past events;

The estimates and assumptions are based on management's best knowledge of current facts, actions and events. The actual outcomes may ultimately differ from the results reported earlier on the basis of estimates and assumptions. A detailed explanation of the estimates and assumptions are given in the relevant notes to the 2024 consolidated financial statements.

As from the date of the Aegon NL business combination, harmonisation of assumptions and methods between Aegon NL and a.s.r. is in progress and is expected to be finalised by mid-2026. This will include the impacts on IFRS 17 assumptions as a result of the anticipated PIM implementation for a.s.r. life. a.s.r. takes into account in the expense assumptions the estimated synergy effects from the Aegon NL business combination for the part that can be assessed within the budget period.

4.6 Fair value of assets and liabilities

The valuation methodologies used for financial instruments carried at fair value, the policy for determining the levels within the fair value hierarchy, and the significant Level 3 portfolios, are described in accounting policy B in section 7.3.4 of the 2024 consolidated financial statements. No material changes have occurred since this report was published.

5 Segment information and changes in group structure

5.1 Segment information

5.1.1 General

Group structure

See chapters 7.4.1 and 7.7.9 of the 2024 consolidated financial statements for the organisation structure and a list of principal group companies and associates in the relevant segments. Per 1 January 2025 ASR Premiepensioeninstelling N.V. merged with Aegon Cappital B.V., after which Aegon Cappital B.V. ceased to exist.

Segment information

The operations of a.s.r. have been divided into five (FY 2024: five) operating segments. The main segments are Non-life and Life in which all insurance activities are presented. The other activities are presented as three separate segments being Asset Management, Distribution and Services, and Holding and Other.

Insurance activities

Insurance entities are entities that accept the transfer of insurance risks from policyholders. The Non-life segment consists of non-life insurance entities and their subsidiaries. These non-life insurance entities offer non-life insurance contracts such as disability insurance, P&C insurance and health insurance. The Life segment mainly comprises the life insurance entities and its subsidiaries. The life insurance entities offer financial products such as life insurance contracts and life insurance contracts on behalf of policyholders. The Life segment includes ASR Premiepensioeninstelling N.V. (a.s.r. IORP), which offers investment contracts to policyholders that bear no insurance risk and for which the actual return on investments allocated to the contract is passed on to the policyholder. The Life segment also includes ASR Vooruit B.V., the investment firm that performs activities related to private investing for customers. The Non-life and Life segments have different levels of profitability and growth opportunities, as well as a different outlook and risk profile.

Other activities

The other activities consist of:

  • The Asset Management segment involves all activities related to asset management including investment property management. These activities include amongst others ASR Vermogensbeheer N.V., ASR Real Estate B.V., ASR Hypotheken B.V. and Aegon Hypotheken B.V. (Aegon Hypotheken);
  • The Distribution and Services segment includes the activities related to distribution of insurance contracts and include amongst others the financial intermediary business of Poliservice B.V. (Poliservice), Van Kampen Groep Holding B.V. (and Van Kampen Geld B.V. and Anac Backoffice B.V.), Dutch ID B.V. (and Felison Assuradeuren B.V. and Boval Assurantiën B.V.), Corins B.V., SuperGarant Verzekeringen B.V., D&S Participaties B.V., (and ZZP Nederland Verzekeringen B.V. and Bedrijfsartsengroep B.V.), Nedasco B.V., Robidus Groep B.V., TKP Pensioen B.V., Advies van a.s.r. B.V. and Aegon Bemiddeling B.V.;
  • The Holding and Other segment consists primarily of the holding activities of a.s.r. (including the group related activities), other holding and intermediate holding companies, the real estate development business (ASR Vastgoed Projecten B.V.), ASR Vitaliteit & Preventieve Diensten B.V. (Vitality) and the minority participations of ASR Deelnemingen N.V. Also included in segment Holding and other is the result after tax from discontinued operations for HY 2024 related to Knab N.V..

The eliminations applied in the reconciliation of the segment information with the consolidated interim balance sheet and the consolidated interim income statement are separately presented in section 5.1.2 and section 5.1.3.

The a.s.r. segment reporting shows the financial performance of each segment. The purpose is to allocate all items in the balance sheet and income statement to the segments that hold full management responsibility for them.

Segment information has been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles used for the preparation of a.s.r.'s condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

5.1.4 Non-life Ratios

The combined ratio including the claims, commission and expense ratios is an Alternative Performance Measure (non-GAAP financial measure) and is not a measure of financial performance under IFRS. Because it is not determined in accordance with IFRS, these ratios as presented by a.s.r. may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies.

Non-life combined ratio
HY 2025 HY 2024
Claims ratio 73.9% 73.2%
Commission ratio 13.7% 14.0%
Expense ratio 5.7% 6.5%
Combined ratio 93.3% 93.8%

Non-life combined ratio per business line

HY 2025 HY 2024
Property & Casualty (P&C) 91.4% 92.2%
Disability 90.7% 91.5%
P&C and Disability 91.0% 91.8%
Health 98.7% 99.3%

The claims, commission and expense ratios can be calculated based on the following information:

Claims, commission and expenses

HY 2025 HY 2024
Insurance contract revenue 2,951 2,803
Allocation of reinsurance premiums paid -58 -56
Adjustment to the insurance contract revenue 9 8
Net insurance contract revenue 2,901 2,756
Insurance claims and benefits -2,227 -2,094
Amounts recoverable from reinsurers 37 53
Adjustment to the insurance claims and benefits 46 23
Adjusted net insurance claims and benefits -2,144 -2,018
Insurance service operating expenses -564 -566
Of which: Incurred commission expenses -398 -386
Insurance service operating expenses excluding incurred commission expenses -165 -179

The Non-life combined ratio indicates the insurance related profitability of a non-life insurance contract. To measure the Non-life combined ratio, the insurance service expenses are divided by the insurance contract revenue, considering the operating result definition of those items.

In 2025, adjustments to the insurance claims and benefits of € 46 million (2024: € 23 million) mainly consist of € 21 million (2024:€ 26 million) impact of changes of inflation on the Liability for Incurred Claims and € 23 million (2024: € -4 million) related to changes to future services on onerous contracts and € 3 million (2024: Nil) impact on the loss component of hedging for pre-recognition interest rate movements.

Adjustments to insurance contract revenue of € 9 million (2024: € 8 million) relate to the impact of pre-recognition interest rate hedged developments prior to initial CSM recognition.

The significant inputs to the Level 3 values of investment property are the net initial yield and market rental value. These inputs are verified with the following market observable data:

  • Market rent per square meter for renewals and their respective re-letting rates;
  • Reviewed rent per square meter;
  • Investment transaction of comparable objects;
  • The 10 year Dutch Government Bond Yield (%) rate as published by the DNB.

An increase (decrease) in the gross yield in isolation will result in a lower (higher) fair value of the investment property and land and buildings for own use. An increase (decrease) in the theoretical rental value in isolation will result in a higher (lower) fair value.

The significant unobservable and observable inputs to the Level 3 values of plant are the energy prices and market interest rates. An increase (decrease) of the discount rate will lead to a lower (higher) fair value measurement.

Unobservable inputs used in determining the fair value for financial assets measured at fair value (recurring basis) that are categorised within level 3

Investments at FVOCI

The main non-observable market input for the equities classified as level 3 is the net asset value as published by the investee. It is estimated that a 10% increase in valuation of these equities would have no impact on net result due to the non-recycling nature of equity treatment, but would increase equity by € 5 million (2024: € 5 million).

Investments at FVTPL

The mortgage loan portfolio is classified as level 3 'not measured on the basis of observable market data'. Nonobservable market inputs are used in the valuation methods, in addition to the observable market inputs. The valuation method used to determine the fair value of the mortgage loan portfolio is based on the mortgage spread of the risk-free interest rate curve and assumptions for unexpected full prepayments, origination costs, and the options related to early redemption and moving. A slight increase in the mortgage spread used would result in a significant decrease in fair value, and vice versa.

The mortgage loan portfolio consists of high quality mortgages with a relatively fixed return, limited impairments and arrears. The mortgage loan portfolio consists only of Dutch mortgages with a limited counterparty default risk in line with the strategic investment plan (see section 7.8.4 of the 2024 consolidated financial statements).

The fair value of asset-backed securities is based on quotes received from brokers or data vendors. The quotes are validated monthly. The fair value of securitisations are determined based on a discounted cash flow model in case market quotes are insufficiently liquid.

The main non-observable market input for the other investment funds classified as level 3 is the net asset value as published by the investee. It is estimated that a 10% increase in valuation of these equities would increase result before tax and equity by € 64 million (2024: € 61 million), being approximately 0.6% (before tax) (2024: 0.7% (before tax)) of total equity.

The method of determining the fair value of the mortgage equity funds is based on the valuation of the underlying mortgage loans. The discounting curve used in this valuation is based on the three lowest tariffs in the market, excluding a.s.r.'s.

The table below discloses the sensitivities to non-observable market inputs for the property portfolio, including real estate equity funds.

The main non-observable market input for the real estate equity funds third parties is the net asset value as published by the investee. An increase or decrease in the net asset value of equities classified as level 3 will have a direct proportional impact on the fair value of the investment.

The method of determining the fair value of the mortgage loans at amortised cost is the same to that of mortgage loans held at FVTPL. For information regarding the measurement of the fair value of the mortgage loans, see section 6.2.1.

Amounts due to banks presented as level 1 primarily comprise the liability recognised for the cash collateral received.

6.3 Other equity instruments

In April 2025, a.s.r. issued € 500 million perpetual subordinated restricted Tier 1 capital securities priced with a fixed rate coupon of 6.5% per annum (payable semi-annually) until 2 October 2035 (the "first reset date"). The new issue is first callable at par during the six months period up to the first reset date and on each interest payment thereafter.

Holders of the hybrid Tier 2 instrument 5.125% fixed interest, were offered to tender their notes for cash in accordance with the terms and conditions as set out in the Tender Offer Memorandum. The Tender Offer also provided noteholders with the opportunity to sell their current holdings in the hybrid Tier 2 instrument and to apply for priority in the allocation of the subordinated restricted Tier 1 capital securities. As a result, the carrying value of the subordinated liabilities decreased by € 412 million.

6.4.3 Assumptions used

In estimating the fulfilment cash flows included in the contract boundary, a.s.r. considers the range of all possible outcomes in an unbiased way specifying the amount of cash flows, timing and probability reflecting conditions existing at the measurement date, using a probability-weighted average of all possible scenarios. In determining possible scenarios, a.s.r. uses all the reasonable and supportable information available to them without undue cost and effort, which includes information about past events, current conditions and future forecasts. For more information a.s.r. refers to the 2024 consolidated financial statements section 7.5.13.4.

Discount curve

Discount curves to discount the expected future fulfilment cash flows are determined using a liquid risk free curve to which an illiquidity premium is added. The risk-free curve is based on the 6-month EURIBOR swap rate and includes a credit-risk adjustment and a first smoothing point of 20 years. a.s.r. uses an UFR of 3.2% in 2025 (2024: 3.25%) for the construction of the curve from the first smoothing point (FSP). The impact of the decrease in UFR is € 40 million on the value of the insurance contract liabilities and € 10 million on the liabilities arising from direct participating insurance contracts.

At half year-end 2025, the liabilities included a guarantee provision for a carrying amount of € 57 million (FY 2024: € 58 million) and a provision related to unit-linked insurance contracts of € 35 million (FY 2024: € 36 million). These provisions relate to compensation for the costs of these contracts.

An amount of € 431 million (FY 2024: € 417 million) of the liabilities arising from direct participating insurance contracts is related to the a.s.r. DC pension plans.

6.6 Employee benefits

The costs of the post-employment benefits pensions relate to the current Defined Contribution (DC) pension plan of a.s.r., the previous Defined Benefit (DB) plans of a.s.r. and Aegon NL, plus the DC plans of the other group companies. No regular annual premium contributions are paid to the previous DB plans.

The DC plan has two components with defined benefit elements with a marginal impact: survivors' pension and the option to buy a guaranteed income. Both components are accounted for in the same way as the DC plan.

The employee benefits decreased by € 88 million to € 4,949 million (FY 2024: € 5,037 million) primarily due to the increase in the discount rate from 3.51% at FY 2024 to 3.74 % at HY 2025. The remeasurements resulted in an increase of € 51 million (FY 2024: € 113 million) in equity in the actuarial gains and losses.

The employee benefit charges for HY 2025 were € 58 million (HY 2024: € 56 million).

6.7 Borrowings

On 30 January 2025, a.s.r. life closed a transaction under the Delphinus programme to sell Class A mortgage backed securities (RMBS). 'Delphinus 2025-I' consisted of a principal amount of € 500 million of Class A notes.

6.8 Contingent liabilities

Dutch insurers continue to face complaints and claims related to insurance policies. Current and potential legal proceedings may still result in material financial and reputational impact. The settlement agreement, concerning unitlinked life insurances, reached with the five consumer protection organisations was finalised in February 2025. This significantly reduced the remaining risk of a material adverse effect. Since then, more than € 169 million from the provision has been paid in settlement to the claimants and the five consumer protection organisations. Customers not affiliated with these organisations were offered the opportunity to apply for a settlement until 1 June 2025. These initiatives aim to resolve long-lasting and historical disputes concerning unit-linked life insurances. a.s.r. intends to complete all payments related to the settlement agreement within 2025.

Further details on contingent liabilities and provisions is disclosed in the 2024 consolidated financial statements in sections 7.7.7 and 7.5.16 respectively.

Independent auditor's review report

To: the Shareholders and the Supervisory Board of ASR Nederland N.V.

Our conclusion

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six-month period ended 30 June 2025 of ASR Nederland N.V. (the 'Company') based in Utrecht. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' as endorsed by the European Union.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements comprise:

  • 1 the consolidated interim balance sheet as at 30 June 2025;
  • 2 the following statements for six-month period ended 30 June 2025: the consolidated interim income statement, the consolidated interim statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows; and
  • 3 the notes comprising material accounting policy information and other explanatory information.

Basis for our conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with Dutch law, including the Dutch Standard 2410, 'Het beoordelen van tussentijdse financiële informatie door de accountant van de entiteit' (Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity). A review of interim financial information in accordance with the Dutch Standard 2410 is a limited assurance engagement. Our responsibilities under this standard are further described in the 'Our responsibilities for the review of the interim financial information' section of our report.

We are independent of ASR Nederland N.V. in accordance with the Verordening inzake de onafhankelijkheid van accountants bij assurance-opdrachten (ViO, Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, a regulation with respect to independence) and other relevant independence regulations in the Netherlands. Furthermore we have complied with the Verordening gedrags- en beroepsregels accountants (VGBA, Dutch Code of Ethics).

We believe the assurance evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion.

Responsibilities of the Executive Board and the Supervisory Board for the condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at 30 June 2025

The Executive Board is responsible for the preparation and presentation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' as endorsed by the European Union. Furthermore, the Executive Board is responsible for such internal control as it determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

The Supervisory Board is responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Our responsibilities for the review of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at 30 June 2025

Our responsibility is to plan and perform the review in a manner that allows us to obtain sufficient and appropriate assurance evidence for our conclusion.

The level of assurance obtained in a review engagement is substantially less than the level of assurance obtained in an audit conducted in accordance with the Dutch Standards on Auditing. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

We have exercised professional judgement and have maintained professional scepticism throughout the review, in accordance with Dutch Standard 2410.

Our review included among others:

  • Updating our understanding of the entity and its environment, including its internal control, and the applicable financial reporting framework, in order to identify areas in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements where material misstatements are likely to arise due to fraud or error, designing and performing procedures to address those areas, and obtaining assurance evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion;
  • Obtaining an understanding of the internal control, as it relates to the preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements;
  • Making inquiries of management and others within the entity;
  • Applying analytical procedures with respect to information included in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements;
  • Obtaining assurance evidence that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements agree with, or reconcile to the entity's underlying accounting records;
  • Evaluating the assurance evidence obtained;
  • Considering whether there have been any changes in accounting principles or in the methods of applying them and whether any new transactions have necessitated the application of a new accounting principle;
  • Considering whether management has identified all events that may require adjustment to or disclosure in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements; and
  • Considering whether the condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at 30 June 2025 have been prepared in accordance with the applicable financial reporting framework and represent the underlying transactions free from material misstatement.
