Q2 Revenues up 1.5\% YoY - solid revenue growth based on high level of client activity in both customer segments more than compensated $€ 395 \mathrm{~m}$ burdens from FX loan provisions, Credit Holidays in Poland and a Russia-related court case

Net interest income (NII) 2\% lower YoY and QoQ with volume growth partially offsetting higher pass-through rate (deposit beta)

Net commission income (NCI) up 4.5\% YoY mainly due to better securities business and increased activity level of corporate clients

Net fair value result (NFV) reflects partial offset of NII - in Corporate Clients good contribution from capital markets business

Other income excluding provisions for FX loans reflects burdens from Credit Holidays and Russia, partially compensated by positive contributions from legacy positions

NII maintained at high level despite ECB rate cut

Net interest income

$(€ \mathrm{~m})$

Corporate Clients (CC) growth of investment loans - QoQ lower NII contribution from deposits due to increasing deposit beta at stable volumes

Private and Small-Business Customers Germany (PSBC Germany) with ongoing growth in call deposits QoQ at positive margins partially offsetting higher beta. Additionally, early repayment of mortgages and day-count effects have lead to lower NII in PSBC, offset in O\&C
mBank with higher NII QoQ based on continued effective deposit margin management and loan growth

Others \& Consolidation (O\&C) with higher NII QoQ mainly reflecting other side of the effects from early repayment of mortgages and day-count in PSBC

Consumer finance book stable at $€ 3.1$ bn

CC largely stable deposit volume with ongoing shift from sight to term and call deposits

Strong growth in PSBC deposit volume driven by inflows into call accounts and reduced outflow of sight deposits

NII outlook $-\epsilon 8.1$ bn confirmed with upside potential

FY 23

ECB deposit rates

Average ECB deposit rate expected at $3.8 \%$ in 2024
( $\sim 45 \mathrm{~m}$ annualized sensitivity to $+/-10$ bps in ECB rate)

Deposit volume

Deposit volume increased by $\sim 9$ bn in Q 2 due to strong inflow of call money - in line with lower rates offered to customers softer trend expected in the next quarters

Deposit beta ${ }^{2}$

Q2 average deposit beta in Germany at 39\% reflecting strong inflow of call money and mix shift in CC - average beta for 2024 expected at 39\% subject to volume development ( $\sim 90 \mathrm{~m}$ annualized sensitivity to $+/-1$ pp beta change)

Replication portfolio

Deposit replication portfolio increased by $€ 10$ bn to $€ 133$ bn; replication portfolios expected to contribute additional $\sim 400 \mathrm{~m}$ in 2024 vs 2023; a larger replication portfolio supports future NII while reducing 2024 results

mBank

NII expected significantly above 2023 level

1) Outlook based on forward rates as of end July 2024
2) Deposit beta is the average interest pass-through rate to customers across interest bearing and non-interest bearing deposit products based on ECB deposit rate

Growth in fee business - on track to reach FY 4\% target

Net commission income

(€m)

Promising 4.5\% growth of fee income year on year

Corporate Clients (CC) with good contribution mainly from the syndicated business leading to $2.7 \%$ higher NCI YoY

Private and Small-Business Customers Germany (PSBC Germany) with 5.4\% higher NCI YoY driven by the securities business
mBank has increased margins and benefits from FX effects YoY

Broad-based growth of NCI year on year

Corporate Clients

In Capital Markets YoY strong growth from DCM business (bond issuance and syndications), more than offsetting slightly weaker FX business

Trade finance with YoY slight increase

Private and Small-Business Customers Germany

YoY increased securities revenues from volume growth and higher number of transactions

QoQ securities volume up €3bn with €1.1bn from net new money in Q2

Payments business nearly stable YoY

Costs continue to be on track

Costs
(€m)

Operating expenses $\square$ Compulsory contributions

Total Group costs below last year due to lower compulsory contribution

Operating expenses for Group ex mBank are slightly higher than last year because of general salary increases in Q3 2023. These increases were partially offset by active cost management

Operating expenses for mBank rose as a result of investments in business growth and FX effects

Decreasing European bank levy in 2024 due to suspended contribution to Single Resolution Fund as target volume has been reached

Risk result on 2023 level - guidance 2024 unchanged

German economy expected to stay weak

ifo Business Climate index

(index, 2015=100)

Latest development

The German economy remains weak. After rising slightly in the first quarter, real gross domestic product fell again slightly in the second quarter. Apart from these short-term fluctuations, economic output has been stagnating for more than two years.
The recent decline in sentiment indicators has put a noticeable damper on hopes of an economic upturn in the second half of the year. The dampening effect of the interest rate hikes implemented by the ECB and many other Western central banks over the past two years is clearly only slowly diminishing. The same applies to the impact of higher energy prices.
The number of unemployed people has risen in recent months due to the weak economy. However, unemployment remains significantly lower than it has been for most of the past 40 years.
The inflation rate has only been just above the ECB target of $2 \%$ for several months. However, excluding the often highly volatile energy and food prices, the core inflation rate is still significantly higher at just under $3 \%$.

Outlook for 2024

In view of the recent fall in leading indicators, it is increasingly likely that the weak trend of the German economy will continue well into the second half of the year. It will obviously take longer for the economy to adjust to the higher interest rates. The adjustment of construction output to the significantly lower demand due to higher financing costs is therefore unlikely to be complete.
However, a recovery can be expected in the coming year. This is because the burden from high interest rates should then gradually ease and rising real wages should boost private consumption. Nonetheless, a strong upturn is not to be expected. This is because numerous structural problems are slowing down the German economy and financial policy is likely to be rather restrictive.
Following an initial step in June, the ECB is likely to cut interest rates further, albeit at a fairly cautious pace and to a lesser extent than at the start of previous recovery phases. After all, it will become increasingly clear in the coming months that the inflation problem has not yet been solved. In fact, both in Germany and in the eurozone as a whole, service prices will continue to rise strongly as a result of rapidly increasing wage costs. The core inflation rate is therefore likely to stabilize at well above $2 \%$ and prevent the ECB from easing its monetary policy.

Comfortable fulfilment of RWA and LRE MREL requirements

Page has been updated 12 August 2024

MREL Requirements and M-MDA

Based on data as of 30 June 2024, Commerzbank fulfils its current MREL RWA requirement for resolution group $\mathrm{A}^{1}$ of $28.05 \%$ RWA with an MREL ratio of $33.3 \%$ RWA and the MREL subordination requirement of $22.68 \%$ RWA with a ratio of $28.9 \%$ RWA, both including the combined buffer requirement (CBR)

Both, the MREL LRE ratio of $8.9 \%$ and MREL subordination LRE ratio of $7.8 \%$ comfortably meet the requirement of $6.78 \%$
The issuance strategy is consistent with all RWA and LRE based MREL requirements

1) In May 2024, Commerzbank AG received its current MREL requirement calibrated based on data as of 31 December 2022. The resolution approach is a multiple point of entry (MPE) with two separate resolution groups (resolution group A: Commerzbank Group without mBank subgroup; resolution group B: mBank subgroup). The legally binding MREL (subordination) requirement is defined as a percentage of risk-weighted assets (RWA) and leverage ratio exposure (LRE)

IAS 19: Development of pension obligations

Cumulated actuarial gains and losses

$(\epsilon \mathrm{m})$

Pension obligations (gross)
Cumulated OCI effect ${ }^{1}$
Discount rate in $\%^{2}$

In Q2 24, the relevant market rates went upwards, moving the IAS19 discount rate to $4.0 \%$ in Q2 versus $3.7 \%$ at year-start. The present-valued pension obligations (DBO) therefore decreased, producing a YtD liability gain in OCI

On the same rates movement, pension assets produced a YtD asset loss in OCI due to lower bond valuations, which was partly compensated by equity gains

Together, pension obligations and pension assets produced a YtD net OCI gain of $+€ 89 \mathrm{~m}$ (after tax) on Group level

The discount rate is derived from an AA-rated government bond basket, re-calibrated on corporate bond level, with an average duration of roughly 14 years

The funding ratio (plan assets vs. pension obligations) is 109\% across all Group plans

FX impact on CET1 ratio

QoQ change in FX capital position

Positive impact on CET1 ratio ${ }^{1}$ since increasing effect of the currency translation reserve slightly overcompensates higher FX driven credit risk RWA

Slight increase in credit risk RWA from FX effects mainly due to stronger USD ( $+€ 181 \mathrm{~m}$ ), GBP ( $+€ 62 \mathrm{~m}$ ), RUB ( $+€ 43 \mathrm{~m}$ ) and PLN ( $+€ 10 \mathrm{~m}$ ), partly offset by other currencies

Higher currency translation reserve mainly due to increase from USD ( $+€ 21 \mathrm{~m}$ ), RUB ( $+€ 18 \mathrm{~m}$ ), GBP ( $+€ 6 \mathrm{~m}$ ) and PLN ( $+€ 2 \mathrm{~m}$ )

This presentation contains forward-looking statements. Forwardlooking statements are statements that are not historical facts; they include, inter alia, statements about Commerzbank's beliefs and expectations and the assumptions underlying them. These statements are based on plans, estimates, projections and targets as they are currently available to the management of Commerzbank. Forward-looking statements therefore speak only as of the date they are made, and Commerzbank undertakes no obligation to update any of them in light of new information or future events. By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. A number of important factors could therefore cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Such factors include, among others, the conditions in the financial markets in Germany, in Europe, in the United States and elsewhere from which Commerzbank derives a substantial portion of its revenues and in which it hold a substantial portion of its assets, the development of asset prices and market volatility, potential defaults of borrowers or trading counterparties, the implementation of its strategic initiatives and the reliability of its risk management policies.

In addition, this presentation contains financial and other information which has been derived from publicly available information disclosed by persons other than Commerzbank ("external data"). In particular, external data has been derived from industry and customer-related data and other calculations taken or derived from industry reports published by third parties, market research reports and commercial publications. Commercial publications generally state that the information they contain has originated from sources assumed to be reliable, but that the accuracy and completeness of such information is not guaranteed and that the calculations contained therein are based on a series of assumptions. The external data has not been independently verified by Commerzbank. Therefore, Commerzbank cannot assume any responsibility for the accuracy of the external data taken or derived from public sources.
