IMPORTANT NOTICE AND DISCLAIMERS

==> picture [168 x 119] intentionally omitted <==

Investors should be aware that certain financial measures included in this Presentation are “non-IFRS financial information” under ASIC Regulatory Guide 230: “Disclosing non-IFRS financial information” published by ASIC and also “Non-GAAP financial measures” within the meaning of Regulation G under the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not recognised under the AAS or IFRS. Non-IFRS financial information / non-GAAP financial measures in this Presentation include (1) Gross Written Premium ( GWP ), Earnings Before Interest and Tax ( EBIT ), Normalised or underlying variants of Revenue, Expenses, EBIT or Net Profit After Tax ( NPAT ) and flow on computations adjusted for non recurring items or are shown on a pro forma basis, and (2) Revenue and Expenses which are shown on a 100% basis including for associates (adjustments for non-controlling interest are shown separately). AUB believes the non-IFRS financial information and non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to users in measuring the financial performance and condition of AUB. However, investors should note that the non-IFRS financial information and non-GAAP financial measures do not have standardised meanings prescribed by AAS or IFRS. Therefore, the non-IFRS financial information / non-GAAP financial measures is not a measure of financial performance, liquidity or value under the IFRS and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other entities, nor should the information be construed as an alternative to other financial measures determined in accordance with AAS or IFRS. Investors are cautioned, therefore, not to place undue reliance on any non-IFRS financial information / non-GAAP financial measures included in this Presentation.

Indications of, and guidance on, future earnings, financial position, dividends and performance are also forward-looking statements, as are statements regarding AUB’s future operations and projects, the outcome of the Offer and the use of proceeds. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks (including (without limitation) certain geopolitical tensions such as the hostility between Russia and Ukraine, and the Middle East, and the risks set out in Appendix A: Key Risks section of this Presentation), uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of AUB, its officers, employees, agents and advisors, that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. There can be no assurance that actual outcomes will not differ materially from these statements. There are usually differences between forecast and actual results because events and actual circumstances frequently do not occur as forecast and their differences may be material.

Investors are strongly cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, including in respect of AUB’s future financial performance and outlook, particularly in light of the current economic climate and the significant volatility, uncertainty and certain geopolitical tensions such as the hostility between Russia and Ukraine, and in the Middle East. Neither AUB, nor the underwriter to the Placement ( Underwriter ), nor any other person, gives any representation, warranty or assurance, nor will guarantee that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement will occur.

1H26 Trading Update and preliminary results

==> picture [132 x 49] intentionally omitted <==

BUSINESS UPDATE – 1H26

Unaudited preliminary results indicate 1H26 UNPAT in the range of AUD 90mn to 91mn, growth on 1H25 of 13.4% to 14.7%

==> picture [168 x 119] intentionally omitted <==

Performance Update – 1H26

Guidance

Reaffirmed

FY26 Underlying NPAT

guidance re-affirmed in the range of AUD 215.0mn - AUD 227.0mn (before the impact of Prestige and the Step-ups), representing growth of 7.4% to 13.4% over FY25

Group performance on-track with good organic growth and strong performances in International, Agencies and BizCover, muted by FX headwinds

Australian Broking Continued solid performance across the business offsetting a reduction in interest
income and difficult market conditions in the Large/Corporate Segment
Underwriting Agencies Another strong half for Underwriting Agencies partially offset by continued weakness in
the Strata market
International Solid performance in wholesale underpinned by continued margin improvement and
pleasing momentum from newly seeded businesses and more recent acquisitions
BizCover Strong organic revenue growth and margin expansion including in offshore markets
New Zealand Broking A disappointing half for the New Zealand business. Weakness in the Corporate Market
across New Zealand has impacted the business while investment in new market share
is not delivering satisfactorily and will be reshaped

AUB expects to recognise non-cash impairments of ~AUD 39mn in 1H26. Of this, ~AUD 26mn relates to an Australian brokerage acquired in 2022 and ~AUD 13mn relates to Tysers Wholesale team departures during CY2025. Total adjustments to statutory NPAT are expected to be broadly consistent with 1H25.

Appendix A – Key Risks

==> picture [132 x 49] intentionally omitted <==

SUMMARY OF KEY RISKS

==> picture [168 x 119] intentionally omitted <==

This section discusses some of the key risks associated with any investment in AUB (including matters in relation to the proposed acquisition of Prestige), together with the risks relating to participation in the Placement (the “ Offer ”), which may affect the value of AUB shares. The risks set out below are not listed in order of importance and do not constitute an exhaustive list of all risks involved with an investment in AUB. Before investing in AUB, you should be aware that an investment in AUB has a number of risks, some of which are specific to AUB and some of which relate to listed securities generally, and many of which are beyond the control of AUB. Before investing in AUB shares, you should consider whether this investment is suitable for you. Potential investors should review publicly available information on AUB (such as that available on the website of AUB and ASX, including previous AUB ASX announcements and periodic disclosures), carefully consider their personal circumstances and consult their stockbroker, solicitor, accountant or other professional adviser before making an investment decision.

ACQUISITION SPECIFIC RISKS
Acquisition risk AUB and its advisers have undertaken financial, operational, legal, regulatory, tax and other analysis in respect of Prestige in order to determine its attractiveness to AUB and whether
to pursue the proposed acquisition of 95.9% of Prestige (theAcquisition). Risks may exist in relation to Prestige of which AUB may be unaware, including latent, future or otherwise
unknown claims or liabilities.
It is possible that such analysis, and the best estimates and assumptions made by AUB, draws conclusions and forecasts which are not realised in due course (whether because of
flawed methodology or misinterpretation of economic circumstances).
To the extent that the actual results achieved by Prestige are weaker than predicted or result in different conclusions than those reached by AUB, there is a risk that there may be an
adverse impact on the financial position and performance of AUB.
Completion risk Completion of the Acquisition is conditional on certain matters as set out in the share purchase agreement (SPA) in respect of the Acquisition which include certain financial regulatory
approvals from the UK Financial Conduct Authority and the Central Bank of Ireland. If any of the conditions are not satisfied or waived on or before the longstop date as set out in the
SPA, completion of the Acquisition may be delayed (provided the Prestige vendors were to consent to any such delay), or may not occur on the current terms, or may not occur at all.
There can be no guarantee AUB will obtain necessary financial regulatory approvals to complete the Acquisition within any particular timeframe, or at all, or that such approvals will be
granted on terms that are acceptable or on an unconditional basis. This could prevent completion of the Acquisition (or, at best, delay completion, provided the Prestige’s vendors
were to consent to any such delay) and/or this may have a material adverse effect on the financial performance of AUB post-completion of the Acquisition.
If the Acquisition is not completed as a result of a failure to satisfy conditions (or otherwise), AUB will need to consider alternative uses for any remaining proceeds from the Offer
(including to fund other potential acquisitions that AUB may identify in the future), or ways to return such proceeds to AUB shareholders. If completion of the Acquisition is delayed,
AUB may incur additional costs and it may take longer than anticipated for AUB to realise the benefits of the Acquisition. Any failure to complete, or delay in completing, the
Acquisition and/or any action required to be taken to return capital raised to AUB shareholders may have a material adverse effect on AUB’s financial performance, financial position
and the price of AUB shares.

ACQUISITION SPECIFIC RISKS

Integration of Prestige There is a risk that, to the extent that Prestige is integrated into the AUB Group, aspects of the integration may encounter unexpected challenges or issues, or that this process takes
and cost and revenue longer than anticipated, diverts management attention or does not deliver the anticipated benefits (including earnings per share accretion) or cost or revenue synergies estimated to be
synergies derived from the Acquisition. Possible problems may include:

differences in corporate culture between the businesses being integrated;

inability to successfully combine the finance, IT, legal and compliance functions and other support of the two businesses in an effective manner;

lack of capability and talent to deliver integration;

unanticipated or higher than expected costs, delays or failures relating to integration of systems;

failing to enhance margins as planned;

loss of, or reduction in, key personnel, expert capability or employee productivity, or failure to retain or procure employees (including Prestige employees with required expertise);

failure to derive the expected benefits of the strategic growth initiatives; and

disruption of ongoing operations of other AUB Group businesses.
In each case, these possibilities mayhave an adverse impact on AUB's operatingand financial performance and the future price of AUB shares.
Due diligence risk AUB undertook a customary due diligence investigation process in respect of the Acquisition and was provided with the opportunity to review detailed information provided by or on behalf
of Prestige. AUB satisfied itself with its due diligence enquiries to-date but, in some cases, AUB did not receive all of the information sought from Prestige. Furthermore, AUB has not
been able to verify the accuracy, reliability or completeness of all the information that was provided to it against independent data. There is no assurance that the due diligence was
conclusive. If any of the information that was provided is incomplete, inaccurate, or misleading (including in respect of accounts provided by Prestige), the benefits expected to be derived
from the Acquisition may not be delivered.
The information reviewed by AUB includes unaudited and forward looking information. While AUB has been able to review some of the foundations for the unaudited and/or forward
looking information relating to Prestige, unaudited and/or forward looking information can be unreliable and be based on assumptions that may prove to be incorrect or may change in the
future.
Investors should also note that there is no assurance that the due diligence conducted was conclusive and that all material issues and risks in respect of the Acquisition have been
identified. Therefore, there is a risk that unforeseen issues and risks may arise, which may also have a material impact on AUB.

ACQUISITION SPECIFIC RISKS

Debt financing and As noted elsewhere in the Presentation, AUB has also entered into an agreement for an additional debt facility of $200m to be applied toward the cash consideration for Prestige payable funding risk on completion of the Acquisition under the SPA. If certain events occur (e.g. insolvency, major misrepresentation, unlawfulness, repudiation, AUB breaching a major undertaking or it being unlawful for its lenders to provide funding), the financiers are not obligated to fund those debt commitments, and may terminate the debt facilities. The inability of AUB to drawdown on these debt commitments would have an adverse impact on AUB’s sources of funding for the Acquisition and may result in AUB being in default of its payment obligations under the SPA at completion. If the Acquisition proceeds to completion, and AUB draws down under the facility, there will be an increase in AUB’s debt levels. The use of debt financing to fund part of the Acquisition consideration means that AUB will be more exposed to risks associated with gearing. For example, AUB will be more exposed to any movements in interest rates, incur higher costs and will be more exposed to general risks relating to any refinancing of its debt facilities. It may be difficult for AUB to refinance all or some of these debt facilities and an inability to secure new debt facilities at a similar quantum and cost to existing debt facilities may adversely affect the financial performance of AUB. Loss of Prestige key There is a risk that there will be some unintended loss of key Prestige staff leading up to and following the Prestige acquisition by AUB. Loss of key Prestige staff may have an impact on staff Prestige' collective 'know-how', including the loss of important relationships with insurers, customers and brokers, and could lead to a loss of certain key customers or insurance partners who might have long standing relationships with particular key Prestige people.

ACQUISITION SPECIFIC RISKS

Change of control The Acquisition may trigger change of control clauses in a number of material contracts to which Prestige is a party. If triggered, the change of control clauses may require counterparty
consent. If the consent of a counterparty cannot be obtained either before or after completion of the Acquisition and a material contract containing a change of control clause is terminated
or renegotiated on less favourable terms, it may have an adverse impact on AUB’s financial performance and prospects.
Regulatory risk Prestige operates in a highly regulated environment which has been and continues to be subject to regulatory review and change. Material regulatory changes may place increased
demands on industry participants and have continued impacts on the insurance broking industry. Any regulatory invention after completion of the Acquisition could have an adverse
impact resulting in lower returns than anticipated under the Acquisition.

STRATEGIC RISKS

Business model of An important part of AUB’s business model and its growth strategy is to acquire and hold equity in insurance broking and underwriting agency businesses. Key considerations include the following. acquiring and holding equity in operating business The likely future performance of the business being acquired and the extent to which the business will fit strategically within the AUB Group. While AUB ordinarily has veto rights on most decisions concerning AUB group members, it may not have the capacity to implement its decisions in all cases.

  • Risks resulting from this model include:

  • disputes regarding the acquisition of a business, including the amount and timing of any deferred consideration;

  • deficiencies in due diligence by AUB;

  • competition for opportunities;

  • potential unknown or contingent liabilities;

  • compliance integration of newly acquired entities;

• reliance on partners (including, in certain cases, management who hold an equity stake within the operating businesses) who may not perform satisfactorily or with whom the relationship may break down, which may lead to issues with decision-making;

• no assurance that the anticipated benefits and synergies expected to result from all or some of the integrations of these acquisitions will be realized. The ability to realise these benefits will depend in part upon whether the acquired businesses can be integrated in an efficient and effective manner;

  • reputational damage arising from failed merger and acquisition transactions; and

  • insufficient funding to capitalise on opportunities.

  • AUB has entered into put option arrangements (or similar) with other shareholders in a number of AUB network firms that upon vesting will entitle the shareholders to require AUB to buy their shares.

STRATEGIC RISKS

Increased competition An increase in competition or deterioration in the competitive positioning of AUB may have an adverse impact on AUB network members and could potentially result in a reduction in or market change gross written premium placed through AUB network members due to a loss of market share; a reduction in fees and commissions; and/or a reduction in margins which may adversely impact the revenue and earnings of AUB network members.

Increased competition from new entrants and existing market participants, including increased commoditisation of business insurance products, may have an adverse impact on partner network and AUB earnings. If there are changes in the remuneration model for, or the use of, insurance brokers, underwriting agencies, or risk services businesses, this may adversely impact AUB’s earnings and/or financial position and performance. In addition, increased competition, or a change in the market structure for premium funding may also adversely impact upon the premium funding business in which AUB has an equity interest, ultimately potentially adversely impacting AUB’s earnings.

AUB in some cases acts as agent of the insurers. Insurers may choose to reduce their reliance on insurance brokers and underwriting agencies, including through an increase in their direct web-based distribution models. Continued consolidation in the general insurance industry may result in a more limited product set and/or greater pricing power for insurers which may result in downwards pressure on commissions and fees. AUB’s ability to offset these pressures will depend on its ability to provide value-added services such as risk management and consulting services to its clients.

Environmental, social Evolving community attitudes towards, and increasing regulation and disclosure in relation to, ESG issues may impact the operation of AUB’s business. Some of the areas of focus for and governance (ESG) AUB are diversity and inclusion, modern slavery, ethical sourcing, native title, energy, general employment practice, and strategies in relation to climate change. risks and expectations Increased expectations, and in particular the failure to meet those expectations, with respect to ESG may negatively impact on the profitability or value of AUB’s business, restrict AUB’s ability to attract financing or investment, result in heightened compliance costs associated with meeting evolving regulatory and disclosure standards, or adversely impact on the reputation of AUB including with its network partners, stakeholders and employees, any of which may have an adverse effect on AUB’s business, financial position and prospects. Damage to the brand AUB's success is heavily reliant on its reputation and branding. Maintaining the strength of the AUB’s and Tysers’ brands is critical to retaining and expanding the AUB network, solidifying AUB's business relationships and successfully implementing its business strategy. The promotion and enhancement of AUB’s and Tysers brands will also depend, in part, on its success in continuing to provide a high quality customer experience to those AUB network partners that rely on AUB for the provision of support services. Issues or events which place the reputation of AUB and/or Tysers at risk may impact on AUB's future growth and profitability, for example, by impacting AUB's ability to attract and retain brokers or by causing the loss of brokers. Any factors that diminish the reputation or branding of AUB and/or Tysers could impede its ability to compete successfully and future business plans and performance.

FINANCIAL RISKS

Market risk The operating and financial performance of AUB is influenced by a variety of general economic and business conditions, including levels of consumer spending, inflation, interest rates and exchange rates, supply and demand, industrial disruption, access to capital markets and government fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies. Changes in general economic conditions may result from many factors including government policy, international economic conditions, significant acts of terrorism, hostilities or war (including in connection with Ukraine and the Middle East), natural disasters and pandemics. A prolonged deterioration in general economic conditions, including inflation, further increases in interest rates or commodity prices or a decrease in consumer and business demand, could be expected to have an adverse impact on AUB's operating and financial performance and financial position.

The nature and consequences of any such factors are difficult to predict and there can be no guarantee that AUB could respond effectively. Any such event and/or the effectiveness of AUB's response could adversely affect AUB's financial performance, financial position, capital resources and prospects, as well as its share price.

The nature and consequences of any such factors are difficult to predict and there can be no guarantee that AUB could respond effectively. Any such event and/or the effectiveness of
AUB's response could adversely affect AUB's financial performance, financial position, capital resources and prospects, as well as its share price.
The ability to secure financing, or financing on acceptable terms, may be affected by volatility in the financial markets, globally or within a particular geographic region, industry or
economic sector. An inability to obtain debt financing, or increase in the costs of obtaining, financing on acceptable terms could adversely impact AUB's financial position and
performance. AUB is exposed to movements in interest rates through its debt facilities.
Fraud and conduct risk AUB has in place policies and procedures implemented in relation to the risk of fraud. However, particularly in relation to businesses where AUB does not control the day-to-day
operations, there is a risk that funds of the business or of those held on behalf of clients may be the subject of fraudulent behaviour. Any such fraudulent behaviour would likely have
an adverse impact on AUB's financial position, performance and reputation
Reduction of gross AUB derives most of its revenue as a result of sales of general insurance products either as agent of the customer through its broker network or as agent of the insurer through its
written premium in the underwriting agency business. A substantial portion of the broker revenue relates to the proportion of the premium payable by the customer. AUB’s revenues could be adversely
market affected if any reduction in sales volumes or premium prices resulted in a reduction in the overall level of insurance premium paid by insurance customers (known as “gross written
premium”) declined globally. Gross written premium is influenced by factors including pricing decisions by insurers and the level of demand for general insurance products. Any
softening in local and global economic conditions is likely to lead to a softening in the level of gross written premium.

FINANCIAL RISKS
Foreign exchange AUB’s ownership of Tysers, Prestige and its broader international business presence exposes AUB to fluctuations in the value of international currencies, including the United States
dollar and the British pound more so than it would if AUB only had a domestic presence. AUB consolidates results of overseas businesses into AUB Group results and the
performance of overseas businesses in Australian dollars when reported in AUB Group financial statements may vary due to the movement of foreign exchange rates, subject to any
currency hedging arrangements AUB has in place. This could have an adverse effect on AUB's financial performance.
Tax changes Any changes to the taxation of shares (including the taxation of dividends) and the taxation of companies (including the existing rate of company income tax) may adversely impact on
AUB shareholder returns, as may a change to the tax payable by AUB shareholders in general. Any other changes to Australian or global tax law and practice that impact AUB, or the
insurance industry generally, could also have an adverse effect on AUB shareholder returns.
~~.~~
Investment impairment AUB's balance sheet includes a significant level of investments and intangible assets recognised as a result of its various acquisitions. Investments and intangible assets must be
regularly tested for impairment. Impairment results from a decrease in value indicated by a permanent decline in profits below the level that supports the value of the investment or
asset. In the event that any of AUB's investments or intangible assets are found to be impaired to a level below their carrying value, AUB would need to write down the value of the
intangible asset. This will result in the recognition of an impairment expense which may adversely impact AUB's financial position and performance.
Changes to accounting Changes to Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act could affect AUB's reported
standards results of operations in any given period or AUB's financial condition from time to time.
Preliminary results AUB’s 1H26 results noted in this presentation are preliminary and unaudited management accounts at the date of this presentation. There is a risk that as AUB’s 1H26 financial report
and audit review is progressed, this could affect AUB’s disclosed results of operations or AUB's financial condition.

SUMMARY OF KEY RISKS

==> picture [168 x 119] intentionally omitted <==

This section discusses some of the key risks associated with any investment in AUB (including matters in relation to the proposed acquisition of Prestige), together with the risks relating to participation in the Offer, which may affect the value of AUB shares. The risks set out below are not listed in order of importance and do not constitute an exhaustive list of all risks involved with an investment in AUB. Before investing in AUB, you should be aware that an investment in AUB has a number of risks, some of which are specific to AUB and some of which relate to listed securities generally, and many of which are beyond the control of AUB. Before investing in AUB shares, you should consider whether this investment is suitable for you. Potential investors should review publicly available information on AUB (such as that available on the website of AUB and ASX, including previous AUB ASX announcements and periodic disclosures), carefully consider their personal circumstances and consult their stockbroker, solicitor, accountant or other professional adviser before making an investment decision.

LEGAL AND REGULATORY RISKS

Regulatory Risk AUB operates in a highly regulated environment which has been, and continues to be, subject to regulatory review and change. Failure to act in accordance with regulation, licences, industry standards and codes, internal policies and procedures and principles of good governance could result in regulatory or legal action, licences being suspended or withdrawn, significant fines, penalties, other costs, reputation damage and/or reduced investor confidence. This, in turn, may adversely impact AUB’s reputational, financial performance and position.

AUB may be exposed to violations of financial crime laws including fraud, anti-bribery and corruption, sanctions and anti-money laundering and terrorism financing. The ownership of Tysers has further exposed AUB to the risk of operating in some jurisdictions which can be higher risk for breach of such financial crime laws. A breach of financial crime laws or other applicable laws or regulatory requirements could lead to enforcement action by regulators, and/or significant fines and/or other penalties, litigation, as well as the risk of reputational damage. This, in turn, may adversely impact AUB’s reputational, financial performance and position. To minimise the risk of non-compliance with regulatory obligations, AUB may be required to make additional continued investments into people, frameworks, systems and monitoring to minimise the risk of non-compliance in the future.

Regulatory changes may also impact AUB and/or its operating entities through costly and burdensome regulation and may have consequences which cannot be foreseen. Additionally, compliance with these regulatory obligations may require considerable investment into the establishment of compliance systems and the monitoring and maintenance of such systems to minimise the risk of non-compliance in the future.

AUB also faces the risk of failing to identify or appropriately respond to changes in the regulatory environment or of damaging AUB's standing with its regulators as a result of AUB not meeting regulatory expectations.

Litigation risk

AUB and its subsidiaries may be subject to litigation, class action or other prosecutions or proceedings, claims or disputes in the course of its business in each of the jurisdictions in which they operate from time to time. Given the nature of their insurance broking businesses, AUB subsidiaries are and can be occasionally named as co-defendants in proceedings alongside insurers. If any of AUB's subsidiaries were to be found liable in any such proceedings, this could result in a requirement to pay damages, fines, compensation and/or other penalties, as well as the risk of reputational damage. This, in turn, may adversely impact AUB’s reputation, financial performance and position.

OPERATIONAL RISKS

Loss of capacity for Unexpected loss of underwriter capacity, whereby an underwriter fails to renew a binder or withdraws capacity for strategic reasons (such as exiting lines of business or a specific underwriting agencies country exit) is likely to result in significant loss of income. Further risk may be as a result of an underwriter withdrawing capacity due to uneconomic underwriting results. This would severely constrain the ability of underwriting agencies to write new business and restrict them from renewing existing business. Any such scenario would have an adverse impact on the financial performance of AUB's underwriting business. Technology and Cyber AUB's information technology systems (including those provided by third party technology vendors) are vulnerable to service interruptions, degradation, damage or interruption from a Security Risk number of sources, including natural disasters, power losses, computer systems failures, hardware and software defects or malfunctions, hardware and software updates, distributed denial-of-service, internet and telecommunications or data network failures, operator negligence, improper operation by or supervision of employees, physical and electronic losses of data and similar events, computer viruses, other malware or other cyber-attacks, penetration by malicious actors seeking to disrupt operations or misappropriate information, breakins, sabotage, intentional acts of vandalism and other breaches of security. Any damage or interruption to, breaches or reduction in speed or functionality of, AUB’s information systems or those provided by third party technology vendors could significantly curtail, directly and indirectly, AUB's ability to conduct its business and generate revenue and could result in significant costs being incurred, for example to rebuild systems, respond to regulatory inquiries or actions, pay damages, or take other remedial steps with respect to third parties. Loss of sensitive (personal or organisational) information can lead to reputational damage, client distrust and regulatory inquiries or actions. Loss or misuse of AUB’s operations rely on the secure processing, transmission and storage of confidential, proprietary and other information in its computer systems and networks. AUB's facilities and personal and systems, as well as the facilities and systems utilised by AUB network partners, may be vulnerable to privacy and security incidents, security attacks and breaches, acts of vandalism confidential information or theft, computer viruses or other malware, hardware and software defects or malfunctions, hardware and software updates, distributed denial-of-service or other cybersecurity risks, misplaced or lost data, programming and/or human errors or other similar events.

Any security breach involving the misappropriation, loss or other unauthorised disclosure or use of confidential information, including financial data, commercially sensitive information, or other proprietary data, whether by AUB or a third party, could have a material adverse effect on AUB’s business, reputation, financial condition, cash flows, or operations. The occurrence of any of these events could result in interruptions, delays, the loss or corruption of data, cessations in the availability of systems, potential liability and regulatory action or liability under privacy and security laws, all of which could have a material adverse effect on AUB’s financial position, operations and harm AUB’s business reputation.

OPERATIONAL RISKS

Loss of key staff and/or A loss of key personnel by AUB may lead to material business interruption and loss of key customer or partner relationships. AUB also relies on the need to be able to attract staff with
challenges attracting the right experience and expertise to assist AUB with successful execution of its strategic priorities and growth plans. Particularly given the presently competitive labour market, there
new staff can be no certainty that AUB will be able to retain and attract the people it desires. Skilled/key personnel may include key persons noted on Binder Authorities, Responsible Managers
as noted on Australian Financial Services Licences (‘AFSLs’), incumbents in key roles or individuals who hold business critical knowledge.
Third party risk AUB utilises third party suppliers to bring external expertise and support to the business. Insufficient or uncommercial contractual arrangements may impact the Group’s ability to
maintain efficiency and ensure third parties meet their obligations.
The risks associated with engaging third parties include reputational damage, operational disruption, and risks to AUB’s compliance with laws and regulations.
Loss of AUB network AUB’s financial results substantially depend on the business generated by AUB’s network members, and therefore if members were to leave the network, AUB’s revenues and profit
partners would likely be reduced. While there are significant barriers to member firms leaving the network, including, in most cases, AUB’s right to pre-empt a sale of other shareholders’ equity
and restrictions on a former network member competing with the AUB member network, nevertheless network firms may leave.
Reliance on strategic AUB depends on relationships with strategic partners such as insurers and premium funders. The loss of any of these relationships could adversely affect AUB’s business by reducing
partners the range of products and services AUB can offer with respect to both the insurance brokerage and underwriting agency businesses. This could result in lower revenue.

EQUITY RAISING RISKS

Underwriting risk AUB has entered into an underwriting agreement with Macquarie Capital (Australia) Limited (MCAL) (the underwriter) pursuant to which the underwriter has agreed to underwrite the
Placement (Underwriting Agreement), subject to those terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement. If certain conditions are not satisfied or if certain termination events
occur, the underwriter may terminate the Underwriting Agreement. Those termination events are summarised in Appendix B of this Presentation. Termination of the Underwriting
Agreement would have an adverse impact on the amount of proceeds raised under the Placement. Termination of the Underwriting Agreement could materially adversely affect AUB’s
business, cash flow, financial condition, results of operations and ability to fund the acquisition of Prestige.
  • As disclosed today, further to the Placement, AUB is also making an offer to eligible shareholders under a share purchase plan (SPP). The SPP is not underwritten. Accordingly, there is no certainty that AUB will raise a minimum amount of capital under such SPP offer.

  • Market generally The price of AUB securities on the ASX may rise or fall due to numerous factors including: • Australian and international general economic conditions, including inflation rates, the level of economic activity, interest rates, commodity prices and currency exchange rates; • changes in Australian and foreign government laws and regulation (including fiscal and monetary policies); • geopolitical instability, international hostilities and acts of terrorism in Australia and around the world; • investor perceptions in the local and global markets for listed stocks; and • changes in the supply and demand of securities. AUB securities may trade below the Offer price and no assurances can be given that AUB’s market performance will not be materially adversely affected by any such market fluctuations or factors. No member of AUB, nor any of their directors nor any other person guarantees AUB’s market performance.

  • Dilution Existing shareholders who do not participate in the Placement or the SPP will have their percentage shareholding in AUB diluted. A participating shareholder may also be diluted even though it participates in the Placement and/or any SPP, depending on the number of New Shares allocated to them. Investors may also have their investment diluted by future capital raisings by AUB. AUB may issue new securities in the future (including, without limitation, to finance acquisitions, contractually payable amounts or pay down debt) which may, under certain circumstances, dilute the value of an investor’s interest.
