Management report
The mission of the investment management company "Indexo" (IPAS "Indexo", hereinafter the Company or INDEXO) is to offer modern, transparent and simple investment products at low cost and to improve competition and transparency in the Latvian financial services industry.
"2025 has been a year of significant transformation and dynamic development for the INDEXO Group, leaving a substantial impact on the Group’s future growth direction. The pension business continued to deliver strong results, providing another year of real capital growth for our fund clients. Revenues and profit also increased, which will further support the development of our banking business.
During the reporting year, INDEXO Banka significantly accelerated its development pace. By continuously enhancing our product offering, we attracted strong customer interest, and by the end of the reporting period nearly 50 thousand people had opened bank accounts with us. Competitive interest rates on current account balances and deposits helped our clients improve their everyday savings. Our mortgage refinancing product enabled hundreds of clients to reduce their borrowing costs. We will continue to expand and improve our product offering to further enhance our clients’ financial well-being.
To support the Bank’s development, we raised substantial equity capital through both private and public offerings. We thank all investors who supported us in this process. Our priority is to continue expanding the Bank’s business volumes and to achieve bank-level profitability in the near term.
Part of the capital raised was used to finance two acquisitions. On 15 December 2025, we completed the voluntary cash/share exchange offer to the shareholders of DelfinGroup, listed on the Nasdaq Riga Stock Exchange. By January, following completion of the mandatory offer, INDEXO owns 71.42% of this profitable lending business, which regularly distributes dividends. Within the Group, INDEXO is already profitable and is increasingly able to finance its growth from internal financial resources, thereby reducing risk for shareholders. In a smaller transaction in September 2025, we acquired pension manager IPAS VAIRO for cash and shares, with EUR 91 million in assets under management and more than 12.5 thousand clients. These events mark important milestones in the development history of IPAS INDEXO, demonstrating the company’s ability to grow and expand also through strategic transactions. They show that we have become a sufficiently large and influential market participant to execute transactions of this scale, further strengthening our position in the financial market and opening new growth opportunities.
In asset management, the INDEXO Real Estate Fund also experienced significant growth, with assets reaching EUR 176 million (net assets of EUR 75 million). The fund continues to distribute dividends and reflects our long-term commitment to investing in the local market and promoting the development of Latvia’s capital market. As the fund’s assets increased, the management company, in which INDEXO holds a 49% stake, became profitable during the year.
None of this would have been possible without the professional, united and results-oriented INDEXO team.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
We express our deepest gratitude to all INDEXO employees for their professional contribution, high sense of responsibility and continuous commitment to delivering on INDEXO's mission. Your daily work and dedication to INDEXO's values have been decisive in the development achieved to date and will be equally important in the future stages of the Group's growth.
We also extend our appreciation to our shareholders, whose number increased by 31% during the year and now reaches nearly 7 800. Thank you for your trust, support and belief in INDEXO's development vision. Your involvement and confidence in INDEXO strengthen our foundations and provide a solid platform for the sustainable future growth of the INDEXO Group."
Sincerely Yours,
Henrik Karmo, Chairman of the Board of IPAS INDEXO.
We would like to inform you about the key events in the development of INDEXO in 2025:
1) Pension business closed the reporting year with a profit of EUR 2.18 million, an increase of 169% compared to 2024, enabling us to support the development and capital needs of INDEXO Banka to the greatest extent possible.
2) The pension management company, influenced by various factors, shifted its strategic focus towards the voluntary pension product, the 3rd pension pillar, which resulted in very strong growth performance. The number of clients increased by 5 857, from 16 539 to 22 396, representing an increase of 35.4%. Assets under management grew from EUR 37.6 million to EUR 59.2 million, an increase of EUR 21.6 million, or 57.3%.
3) Within INDEXO Group, we place particular emphasis on ensuring that the services and products we offer are meaningful to clients and provide real added value. At the end of 2025, we introduced a new personal finance forecasting tool, the "Retirement Planner", and during the reporting year we significantly expanded the range of products offered by the Bank.
4) INDEXO customer retention is still at a high level and reached an annualized basis 85.23% in December 2025. At the end of 2024, our customer retention was 86.89%. The decrease in customer retention is largely due to increased activity by our competitors. We have taken notice, have implemented and will continue to implement measures to increase customer loyalty.
5) The number of INDEXO Banka clients more than doubled during the year, reaching nearly 50 000, while the loan portfolio grew to EUR 55.5 million at the end of 2025, with new loans issued during the year totalling EUR 61.5 million. To support the development of INDEXO Banka's operations, IPAS INDEXO strengthened the Bank's capital during the reporting period, increasing it to EUR 27 325 002, which is EUR 10 015 557 more than in 2024, when the total investment amounted to EUR 17 309 445.
6) At year-end, INDEXO Banka's customer deposits reached EUR 72.6 million, compared to EUR 33 million at the end of 2024. The growth in deposits reflects strengthening customer confidence in the Bank, while the EUR 1.19 million paid to customers in interest during 2025 demonstrates the development of an active customer base and the competitiveness of the Bank's deposit products.

Pension Savings Management
Our aim is to help Latvians save enough for retirement to avoid a significant drop in their quality of life upon reaching that age. Global estimates suggest that maintaining one's standard of living in retirement requires saving around 10–15% of income, yet few people in Latvia follow this rule. Our savings for retirement offers both 2nd pillar (Defined Contribution) and 3rd pillar (voluntary) saving products. On September 19 we acquired IPAS VAIFO with 13 084 clients who had more than 89 million of assets under management.

Pension business total AUM growth drivers Q4 2024 – Q4 2025 Millions EUR, based on management estimates
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
INDEXO AUM has increased from the start of the year to EUR 1 566 million, in comparison with 2024, it has grown 17% (from 1 339 million in 2024). All drivers of organic growth (monthly contributions (EUR 142 million), fund transfers from clients joining INDEXO (EUR 128 million) and market returns (EUR 90 million)) have significantly helped fuel AUM growth, yet it is imperative that we mention that the acquisition of IPAS VAIRO has been one of the main assets under management growth drivers in 2025. Our growth would be even faster if not for the worsened 2nd pension pillar customer retention rate during the period. Our 2nd pillar customer retention figure has declined from 86.89% in 2024 to 85.23% in 2025. This was mostly driven by several competitors resorting to active sales tactics, attracting clients into funds that have underperformed compared to INDEXO's equivalents since their inception. With lower contributions and the impact of reduced marginal fees, we are prioritizing the quality of client relationships.

Total pension assets, millions EUR
Total pension clients, thousands
Since the beginning of 2025 our focus has been voluntary savings for retirement. We are seeing early results of this pivot – our customer number has grown from 16 539 to 22 396 (35% y-o-y) and Assets under Management from EUR 37.6 million to EUR 59.2 million (57% y-o-y). Most importantly we have a good proportion of dedicated savers that are contributing regularly and increasing their payments.

-In the 2024 reporting period, interest payments of EUR 299.8 thousand were paid for commitment letters, and in the 2025 reporting period, interest payments of EUR 299.0 thousand were paid, which are not part of pension business operating expenses.
The increase in expenses is primarily attributable to higher Group-level costs, including capital raising expenses and costs related to the DelfinGroup transaction. Administrative expenses of the pension business increased only marginally. The majority of the increase relates to Group costs recorded through IPAS INDEXO as the parent company of the Group.
**.-Normalised results reflect the performance of pension management activities, excluding income and expenses that are not directly related to the pension business. These adjustments mainly include costs related to capital raising for INDEXO Bank, interest expenses on commitment letters, costs associated with the bank's employee share option programme, as well as other expenses incurred during the establishment and development of INDEXO Bank.
Increases in the client base and AUM have contributed to commission income growth in pension fund management, reaching EUR 5.11 million (compared to EUR 4.44 million in the corresponding reporting period in 2024). During 2025, dividends of EUR 0.78 million were received from DelfinGroup. Profit before client acquisition costs reached EUR 3.88 million (compared to EUR 3.03 million in the corresponding reporting period in 2024). Total net profit during the reporting period was EUR 2.18 million (compared to EUR 0.81 million in the corresponding reporting period in 2024). Our normalised net profit also has significantly increased (EUR 2.12 million) comparing to the same period last year, when it was at EUR 1.28 million.
The growth in our assets under management is driven not only by contributions from new clients and transferred client assets from other managers, but also by market performance. As of 31st of December 2025, our 2nd pillar pension plan returns are as follows:
| 2nd Pillar Pension plan | Risk Profile | YTD return | 3-year return (per annum) | 5-year return (per annum) | Return since inception (per annum) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| INDEXO Izaugsme 55-62 | 50% Equity | 3.38% | 9.13% | 5.14% | 5.24% |

Real Estate Fund Management
In 2022, together with two real estate professionals, we co-founded SIA Provendi Asset Management AIFP, a real estate management company in which INDEXO holds a 49% ownership interest. In 2023, SIA Provendi Asset Management AIFP commenced operations with the lowest cost real estate fund in Latvia, A/S Indexo Real Estate Fund, and two of our investment plans, "Jauda" and "Izaugsme", began allocating a portion of their assets to the fund. The investment was driven by our strategic intention to invest in the local market, capture the attractive long-term return potential of the local real estate sector, and contribute to the development of Latvia's capital market.
By the end of 2025, the fund's total investments in residential and commercial real estate exceeded EUR 176 million, representing nearly a fourfold increase over the past two years. The fund's net asset value (NAV) increased by 10.5%, and the fund paid dividends to investors, including our pension fund. In the fourth quarter of 2025, Indexo Real Estate Fund, managed by Provendi Asset Management, acquired two shopping centres, one in Latvia - Damme, and one in Estonia - Auriga. The total transaction value amounted to EUR 56 million. More information is available here. As of 31 December 2025, the investment of the INDEXO pension plan "Izaugsme" in the fund amounted to EUR 14.5 million, or 5.78% of the plan's assets, while the investment of the plan "Jauda" amounted to EUR 20.5 million, or 1.81% of the plan's assets. During 2025, the value of the fund's investment units increased by more than 10%. We are very proud of the results achieved by Provendi Asset Management and hope for equally strong performance in the future.
Bank Development
AS INDEXO Banka (hereinafter the Bank or INDEXO Banka) commenced operations on 28 August 2024, three and a half months after receiving its banking licence on 21 May 2024. During the reporting period, INDEXO Banka completed its first full year of operations. Reflecting on the year, we are satisfied with the product and service offering developed for retail clients and with the Bank's ability to distinguish itself in the Latvian financial market through ease of use and innovative products, providing new opportunities and more favourable terms for clients.
Within 16 months of operations, the Bank has attracted nearly 50 thousand clients, built a loan portfolio exceeding EUR 55 million, and attracted almost EUR 74 million in deposits. The Bank's results in the second half of the reporting year clearly demonstrate strong demand in Latvia for new and innovative lending services.
INDEXO Banka commenced operations by offering core daily banking services to retail clients, including payments, cards, savings products, such as deposits and savings accounts, and consumer lending through a modern and user-friendly mobile application. The Bank also offers competitive pricing conditions, including being the only credit institution in Latvia that appropriately remunerates clients for balances held in current accounts.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
Although the initial service offering was modern, convenient, and competitively priced, further development and enhancement remain necessary. During the reporting year, the Bank implemented the following improvements to its product offering:
-
Enhancements to daily banking account management solutions. On 12 February 2025, INDEXO Banka became the first bank in Latvia to provide clients, through its mobile application, the ability to view their 2nd pillar pension savings, contributions, and returns, regardless of whether they are clients of INDEXO or any other pension manager in Latvia. This helped increase public interest in pension savings and made information significantly more accessible. In April 2025, the Bank introduced Google Pay and Apple Pay. This important step reflected our commitment to leveraging the latest technologies to enhance the payment experience for our clients.
-
Mortgage lending. Mortgage loans represent the core retail lending product and are a key driver of client loyalty, typically accompanied using daily banking services with the lending bank. In May 2025, INDEXO Banka launched its mortgage refinancing service. We are proud to have already achieved an atypically large market share in this segment, estimated at 60–70%, helping many Latvian households improve the terms of their mortgage loans.
-
Consumer lending. From the start of operations, the Bank offered consumer loans fully digitally through its mobile application, with approval and disbursement possible in less than five minutes, setting a new standard in the Latvian banking sector. During the reporting year, we repeatedly refined credit approval and pricing conditions to identify the most suitable market approach. We also established fully automated integrations with leading Latvian lending platforms, significantly expanding our consumer loan distribution capacity. In September, we introduced the option for existing consumer lending clients to increase their loan amount and amend repayment schedules.
-
Deposit attraction. According to Latvijas Banka data, more than EUR 9 billion is currently held in Latvian residents' current accounts, in most cases earning no return. During the reporting year, INDEXO Banka implemented multiple pricing enhancements across all deposit products. The Bank currently remunerates clients with 1% annually on current account balances, 2% annually on savings accounts, while term deposit rates are not only among the highest offered by leading Latvian banks but also exceed the yield of Latvian government savings bonds.¹
-
Custodian bank services. Disproportionately high custodian bank fees remain another indicator of limited competition in the Latvian banking sector. INDEXO Banka is technically prepared to provide custodian bank services; however, fulfilling regulatory requirements has required additional time. The Bank plans to launch the service in the coming months, with IPAS INDEXO clients expected to gain access to custodian services in the second quarter of 2026.
Although significant time and resources were invested in enhancing our retail product and service offering during 2025, this work will continue. The introduction of new products and services, as well as further development of existing ones, will remain a priority in 2026. An indicative near term product rollout roadmap is outlined below:
¹ Latvian government savings bonds
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
- Mortgage lending. In February 2026, we launched home equity loans, loans secured by residential property. Initial client response following the launch has been encouraging, and we expect this product to contribute a meaningful share of the Bank's mortgage portfolio growth in the coming years. The introduction of this service has also created the platform required to soon offer mortgage loans for the acquisition of new properties.
- Consumer lending. In 2026, the Bank will continue initiatives aimed at responsibly expanding the loan portfolio, including the introduction of consumer loan refinancing and the expansion of partnerships with new distribution partners. At launch, the Bank relied on an external partner's credit risk assessment model. Having now accumulated the necessary statistical base, we plan to introduce our own credit risk assessment model during 2026, enabling more accurate evaluation of client creditworthiness and improving approval and disbursement metrics.
- Deposit attraction. Deposit growth remains one of the Bank's strategic priorities in 2026, and we will continue offering competitive conditions across our deposit products. To support deposit inflows, from the beginning of 2026 the Bank has offered free daily banking services to clients who use an INDEXO Bank account for receiving regular income. During 2026, we also plan to enable parents to open accounts for their children, alongside a range of additional daily banking service enhancements. These improvements are designed both to attract new clients and to encourage existing clients to make more active use of INDEXO Bank's services.
In the second half of the reporting year, we began to realise the benefits of our investments in product development, as well as our sales and marketing initiatives. During the second half of the year, the Bank significantly expanded its loan portfolio and revenue base. Of INDEXO Banka's total income of EUR 1.88 million in 2025, EUR 1.61 million was generated during the second half of the year.
Despite the positive revenue growth trajectory, income levels have not yet reached the scale required to fully cover the Bank's infrastructure and operating costs. As a result, INDEXO Banka recorded a loss of EUR 9.24 million for the reporting period.
The largest investment and expense category related to the establishment of the Bank is IT. In 2025, total capitalised IT investments in intangible assets relating to the Bank's IT infrastructure amounted to EUR 2.65 million. In addition, IT expenses recognised in the profit and loss statement during 2025 totalled EUR 3.06 million. Since the start of INDEXO Banka's development, cumulative investments in intangible IT infrastructure assets have reached EUR 7.5 million.
At the end of the reporting period, INDEXO Banka complied with all regulatory requirements relating to liquidity and capital adequacy. To finance reporting period losses and ensure compliance with capital adequacy requirements amid rapid loan portfolio growth, the Bank's capital was increased by EUR 10 million during 2025, and subordinated borrowings of EUR 1.8 million were raised. At the end of the reporting period, INDEXO Banka's capital and reserves amounted to EUR 9.25 million, and the capital adequacy ratio stood at $21.16\%$. The liquidity coverage ratio was $529.67\%$, significantly exceeding the regulatory minimum of $100\%$.
To continue expanding the loan portfolio, introduce new services, and cover losses until breakeven is achieved, INDEXO Banka will require additional capital during 2026. It is expected that a substantial

portion of this capital will be provided by IPAS INDEXO from profits generated in 2025 and the first half of 2026. The Bank may also issue additional AT1 and Tier 2 capital instruments, depending on capital needs and the pace of loan portfolio growth.

Sustainability
INDEXO was established with the aim to improve the financial environment in Latvia. It was a response to the unjustifiably high commission fees and low returns in pension management at the time. INDEXO strives to continuously develop in order to create long-term value for its clients, shareholders, and society at large. In 2025, the Company developed INDEXO Strategy document that includes INDEXO's sustainability strategy for the period from 2025 to 2028.
Environment
As a pension manager with a passive asset management strategy, INDEXO recognises that the greatest impact can be achieved through sustainably selected investments within its assets under management, the Company's digital initiatives, and sustainable solutions implemented in the Company's office premises.
Social Responsibility
INDEXO cares about relationships with employees, clients, shareholders, regulators and society. The company addresses social issues and advocates for positive changes in the Latvian financial environment.
Governance
Since its inception, one of INDEXO's core values has been transparency and good governance. After becoming a public company and reaching nearly 7 800 shareholders, INDEXO continues to improve its corporate governance practice.
Along with the Group's annual report, the company publishes the Corporate Governance Report for 2025, prepared in accordance with the requirements of Article 56.² of the Financial Instruments Market Law and the Corporate Governance Code issued by the Ministry of Justice's Advisory Council in 2025. Evaluating the adherence to the principles mentioned in the code for 2024, the Company's management board concludes that during the reporting period, 13 principles were fully complied with and 5 were partially complied with.

Following approvals from the Bank of Latvia, the Bank of Lithuania, and the Competition Council, the voluntary share buyback offer for AS DelfinGroup expressed by IPAS INDEXO took place from 24 November 2025 until 8 December 2025 and was completed on 15 December 2025. As a result, IPAS INDEXO acquired 30 643 883 shares in AS DelfinGroup, representing 67.42% of the total voting share capital of DelfinGroup. On 19 January 2026, following the mandatory share buyback offer for AS DelfinGroup, IPAS INDEXO acquired an additional 1 862 021 shares in AS DelfinGroup, representing 4.10% of the total voting share capital. The total number of AS DelfinGroup shares acquired by IPAS INDEXO amounts to 32 505 904 shares, representing 71.52% of the total voting share capital of AS DelfinGroup.
AS DelfinGroup is a Latvian fintech company holding a consumer lending licence issued by the Consumer Rights Protection Centre, CRPC, established in 2009 and currently operating in Latvia, Lithuania, and Romania.

more than 80 branches across Latvia, as well as online.
Following the approval from the Bank of Latvia, on 19 September 2025, IPAS INDEXO acquired IPAS VAIRO ("VAIRO"), obtaining 100% of VAIRO's shares. The total transaction amount was EUR 1.45 million. As a result of the transaction, IPAS VAIRO has been included in the INDEXO Group, and VAIRO's pension pension 2nd pillar plans continue to operate as before. VAIRO is an independent local pension management company that has been offering adaptive 2nd pillar pension plans since 2023. IPAS VAIRO is an investment management company that manages Latvian 2nd pillar pension plans. At the time of acquisition, 13 084 clients had entrusted more than EUR 89 million in pension assets to IPAS VAIRO. The integration of VAIRO into the INDEXO Group represents a positive development for VAIRO's clients and for the Latvian financial sector. As a result of the transaction, INDEXO strengthens a local financial services group that operates in the interests of the Latvian population.
The core idea of INDEXO has always been to transform the stagnant Latvian financial sector, first by introducing low-cost index linked pension investment plans and now by offering refinancing solutions for expensive mortgage loans. The strategic investments made in 2025 will enable INDEXO to build a leading local financial services group that will provide a broad, modern, and cost-efficient range of services to Latvian residents, ranging from pension management to various lending solutions. It is important to emphasize that all companies within the INDEXO Group, including INDEXO pension management, INDEXO Bank, and DelfinGroup's consumer lending operations, are already experiencing strong growth. Each company will continue to implement its own development and growth plans in line with its respective strategy, while the combination of capabilities will create additional synergies in product portfolios, distribution channels, and the financing of further expansion, thereby increasing the value of the newly formed Group for all shareholders.
IPAS INDEXO, INDEXO Banka, INDEXO APF, IPAS VAIRO, AS DelfinGroup, SIA ViziaFinance, UAB DelfinGroup LT, DealShoq SIA and Delfingroup Ro IFN S.A. together form the Group.
IPAS INDEXO, INDEXO APF and IPAS VAIRO are engaged in the management of assets under the state funded pension scheme and the management of assets under private pension schemes on behalf of clients.
The diagram below presents the entities of INDEXO Group.

Basis of preparation
The Group's and the Company's Financial statements are prepared in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by European Union (IFRS). Having assessed the most significant risks, Management considers the application of the going concern principle in the preparation of these financial statements to be appropriate and concludes that no material uncertainty exists in relation to the application of the going concern assumption. Certain notes have been prepared in accordance with the requirements set out in the regulations issued by the Bank of Latvia. The financial statements of the Group and the Company have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for investments in equity instruments and pawn loans, which are measured at fair value, see Note 15. The financial year of the Group and the Company coincides with the calendar year.
Functional currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of The Group's and the Company's financial statements are presented measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates ('the functional currency'). Financial statements are presented in the official currency of the Republic of Latvia – the euro ("EUR"), unless stated otherwise.
Financial statements of the Group and the Company have been prepared on a going concern basis. Cash flows from operating activities in the statement of cash flows have been prepared using the indirect method.
The Group and the Company present assets and liabilities in order of liquidity, as Management considers this presentation to be more appropriate given that the services provided by the Group and the Company do not arise within a clearly defined operating cycle.
2. Significant Information on Accounting Policies
This note presents the most significant accounting policies consistently applied by the Group and the Company during 2025 and 2024, as well as newly adopted standards and interpretations.
New standards and interpretations
New standards or amendments that became effective for the first time for the reporting period beginning on 1 January 2025:
- Lack of Exchangeability (Amendments to IAS 21 – The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates) The Group and the Company have not had transactions affected by the new standards or their amendments in force, or their accounting policies already comply with the requirements of the new standards.
The following illustrative examples were issued in 2025 and do not have an effective date:
- Illustrative Examples on the Presentation of Uncertainty in Financial Statements

The Group and the Company are currently assessing the impact of the amendments on their financial statements. Based on the initial assessment, the adoption of the new standards and interpretations will not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Group and the Company in the period of their initial application.
2.1. Estimates and Judgements
In preparing the financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, the management of the Group and the Company is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Estimates and the related assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are considered reasonable under the circumstances and which collectively form the basis for making judgements about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Significant Accounting Judgements, Estimates, and Related Assumptions
- Review of Accounting Estimates
Accounting estimates and the related assumptions are regularly reviewed. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised if the changes affect only that period, or in the period of revision and future periods if the changes affect both the current and subsequent periods.
- Assessment of Recoverable Amount of Investments in Subsidiaries
In preparing the financial statements, the Company has made significant judgements and estimates regarding the assessment of the recoverable amount of investments in subsidiary capital.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
- Contract Acquisition Costs and Their Amortization
The Group and the Company have made estimates regarding contract acquisition costs and their amortization period. The portion of variable remuneration of employees involved in client acquisition is recognized as a contract cost asset. These costs are amortized over a seven-year period.
- Share-based Payments
In preparing the financial statements, the Group and the Company have applied significant judgements and estimates in relation to share-based payments.
- Lease Accounting and Discount Rates
The Group has made judgements and estimates regarding the application of the lease standard requirements. In 2024, annual discount rates of 6.4% and 6.36% were applied to lease payments depending on the specific lease agreement.
- Amortization of Intangible Assets (Software and Systems)
The Group’s business plan envisages the gradual development of new banking products, requiring significant system enhancements. Given the rapid technological developments, particularly in software, the Group and the Company plan to implement intangible assets gradually in stages according to the needs of new processes and products. Based on this assessment, it was decided to amortize the systems over five years, applying an annual amortization rate of 20% for software-related intangible assets.
- Determination of Significant Increase in Credit Risk
To determine a significant increase in credit risk, the Group evaluates multiple indicators in both automated and manual processes that reflect deterioration in a client’s risk profile. Days past due, PD, and changes in the client’s creditworthiness relative to the initial assessment are analyzed. If it is determined that the client’s credit risk has increased significantly or a specific delinquency threshold is reached, the relevant asset is classified as Stage 2.
- Loan to an Associate and Expected Credit Losses
The Company has made significant judgements and estimates regarding the loan to an associate. Since the loan is unsecured, a 100% LGD is applied in calculating the expected credit loss. The lifetime PD is determined at 4.19%.
- SPPI Assessment of Lombard Loans
The SPPI assessment for lombard loans is highly subjective. In determining whether the SPPI criteria are met, primary attention was given to the absence of recourse in the loans, combined with a relatively high risk of default and the loan pricing structure. Given that income from lombard loans in the event of default is closely linked to the sale of collateral, it was concluded that lombard loans do not meet the SPPI criteria and therefore must be measured at fair value through profit or loss. These risk assessment and management procedures are somewhat limited due to the collateral used for the loan.
- Fair Value of Lombard Loans
Determining the fair value of lombard loans requires judgement in estimating the amount and
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
timing of future cash flows to determine the fair value of performing lombard loans, and the amount and timing of future cash flows from collateral realization for non-performing loans. Elements of the fair value model for performing loans are determined by the portfolio's effective interest rate and free cash flows. Calculations of the fair value for non-performing loan portfolios depend on the expected timing of collateral realization, its market price, related selling costs, and the applicable discount rate. Fair value model elements and parameters are regularly reviewed and updated as necessary; see Note 32 "Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities."
11. Net Realizable Value of Inventories
The Group's inventory costs may need to be written down to their net realizable value if inventories are damaged, fully or partially obsolete, or if their selling price has declined. Inventory costs may not be recoverable through sale, as completion or estimated selling costs increase. Write-downs to net realizable value are performed individually for each item. Estimates of net realizable value are based on the most reliable evidence available and take into account post-period-end price or cost fluctuations if there is evidence of such conditions at the end of the period.
12. Lease – Estimation of Incremental Borrowing Rate
When the Group cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in a lease, it uses the incremental borrowing rate (IBR) to measure lease liabilities. The IBR is the rate that the Group would have to pay to borrow, over a similar term and with similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a comparable economic environment. Therefore, the IBR reflects what the Group "would have to pay," which requires estimates when actual rates are not available or need adjustment to reflect the lease terms and conditions. The Group estimates the IBR using observable data (e.g., market interest rates) where available and performs necessary company-specific calculations. The measurement of leases is based on the contract term, and no significant judgements are applied beyond this.
13. Identification of Capitalized IT System Costs
The Company and the Group apply professional judgement to distinguish IT system development and implementation costs that meet capitalization criteria from costs recognized in profit or loss in the period incurred. Only costs directly attributable to the creation/configuration and preparation of the system for use (e.g., development, configuration, integration, testing, significant enhancements) that are reliably identifiable and documented are capitalized. Research, training, routine maintenance/support, and general administrative costs are generally not capitalized and are recognized in profit or loss.
14. Expected credit loss (ECL) measurement
Expected credit loss (ECL) is calculated based on estimates of probability of default (PD), exposure at default (EAD), loss given default (LGD), the timing of loss occurrence, as well as forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios. Small changes in these assumptions, including PD thresholds for determining significant increase in credit risk or the weightings of macroeconomic scenarios, may result in material changes in the level of expected credit loss allowances.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
15. Forward-looking macroeconomic information (FLI)
The selection of macroeconomic scenarios and the assessment of their impact on credit risk involve management judgement. The application of different assumptions regarding the development of economic conditions could materially affect the results of ECL calculations.
16. LGD and collateral recoverability
The determination of LGD is subject to uncertainty, as it is based on external data sources and assumptions regarding the amounts and timing of collateral realisation. Changes in these assumptions may materially affect credit loss allowances.
17. Assessment of the Recoverable Amount of Investments in Subsidiaries
Impairment of investments in subsidiaries is calculated with reference to the recoverable amount of the investment. When the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. The recoverable amount of INDEXO APF is determined based on the present value of projected future cash flows. The recoverable amount of AS INDEXO Bank (known as "IDX1R" AS until May 2024) is determined based on the present value of projected future cash flows and the Bank's expected future value. See Note 18.
18. Contract Acquisition Costs - Customer Acquisition Expenses
The Group and the Company recognize a contract acquisition cost asset when they expect to recover these costs. Contract acquisition costs are expenses incurred by the Group and the Company in concluding contracts with their clients, which would not have been incurred if the specific contracts had not been concluded (directly attributable costs).
Costs incurred by the Group and the Company regardless of whether a contract is concluded are recognized in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred, except for costs that can be directly passed on to the Group's and the Company's clients regardless of whether a contract is concluded. Directly attributable costs associated with acquiring a client contract are recognized as an asset in the statement of financial position. If the expected amortization period of the potential contract cost asset is less than one year, the Group and the Company recognize the costs incurred in concluding contracts in profit or loss in the year they are incurred.
The contract cost asset is recognized at its carrying amount, less accumulated amortization and impairment. Accumulated amortization is recognized systematically based on the pattern of services provided under the contract over its expected life, taking into account the expected revenue generation profile.
The Group and the Company recognize the variable remuneration of employees involved in client acquisition as a contract cost asset, amortizing it over a seven-year period. Management considers that the variable remuneration of client acquisition specialists meets the definition of directly attributable costs under IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," as such costs would not arise without client acquisition and are recoverable.
Capitalized client acquisition costs are recognized in the statement of financial position under "Contract Acquisition Costs," while amortization of these costs is recognized in the statement
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
of comprehensive income under "Administrative Expenses."
| 31.12.2025 | 31.12.2024 | 31.12.2025 | 31.12.2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group | Group | Company | Company | |
| EUR | EUR | EUR | EUR | |
| Customer acquisition costs | 1526 565 | 1566 969 | 1526 565 | 1566 969 |
| Total | 1526 565 | 1566 969 | 1526 565 | 1566 969 |
The Group capitalises the variable compensation (including employer's social security contributions) of specialists involved in customer acquisition. The capitalised expenses are amortised over a period of seven years.
According to the data of the State Social Insurance Agency, in the reporting period, on average 15% of participants in the investment plans managed by the Group opted for other investment plans registered in Latvia, while 85% of participants remained in the plans managed by INDEXO. This means that if this indicator remains unchanged in the coming years, a participant of the investment plans managed by the Group will remain a client of INDEXO for about 12-14 years on average. Therefore, the Group believes that the amortisation of the variable compensation of customer acquisition specialists related to customer acquisition over a period of seven years is appropriate.
| Customer acquisition costs | EUR | EUR |
|---|---|---|
| Group | Company | |
| 31.12.2023. | 1 389 048 | 1 389 048 |

| 31.12.2025. | 1 526 565 | 1 526 565 |
19. Share-based Payments
The shareholders' meeting of IPAS INDEXO has granted the management and employees of INDEXO the right to purchase the Company's shares. These purchase rights are classified in the Group's and the Company's financial statements as a share-based payment—an equity-settled transaction—in accordance with IFRS 2 requirements. The shareholders of AS DelfinGroup have approved a share option plan for employees and the Group's management, under which rights to acquire AS DelfinGroup shares are granted in accordance with the approved plan terms. When determining the fair value of share purchase rights at the grant date, the management of the Group and the Company considered information on actual direct and indirect transactions in the Company's shares available to them. At the end of each reporting period, the management of the Group and the Company estimates the probability of exercise of share purchase rights by assessing individually the
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
conditions of the vesting period for management and employees, including continued employment within the Group and the Company, expected performance, and recognizes provisions for expected personnel-related tax payments accordingly. See Note 5.
In determining the grant-date fair value of share-based payments, Group management applied significant professional judgement in evaluating available market data. Since both INDEXO and AS DelfinGroup are publicly listed companies, the share price at the grant date, along with other relevant market data, is used as a key input in determining fair value. The fair value estimate is the main source of estimation uncertainty, as it is sensitive to assumptions regarding the share price, expected volatility, and the risk-free interest rate.
At the end of each reporting period, the management of the Group and the Company makes a significant estimate of the expected grant to be used by individually assessing the probability of exercise of share options. This assessment takes into account factors such as expected operational performance during the vesting period, including tenure within the Group and the Company, performance, and potential forfeiture of grants. Accordingly, the Group and the Company recognize provisions for expected personnel-related tax payments, which depend on the estimated exercise rate of the grant and future tax law.
In accordance with IFRS 1.125 and 1.129, the Group discloses a sensitivity analysis, showing how reasonable changes in key assumptions (e.g., share price volatility or estimated exercise rate of the grant) could materially affect share-based payment expenses. Further details are provided in Note 5.
2.2. Significant Policies
1. Basis of Consolidation
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when it has the right to, or receives, variable returns from its investment in that entity and can affect the amount of those returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date control is obtained until the date control ceases.
For practical reasons, when the Group acquires control over an entity, a "convenience date" may be used, as permitted under IFRS 3. This means that if the actual date of obtaining control differs from the Group's selected practical date, the Group uses the practical date for consolidation and acquisition accounting, provided that no transactions or events occurred between these dates that would materially affect the financial position or operating results of the acquired entity.
Investments in subsidiaries are recorded in the Company's separate financial statements at acquisition cost, less any impairment losses, if applicable.
Loss of Control
When the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognizes the subsidiary's assets and liabilities, along with any related non-controlling interests and other equity components. Any gain or loss arising is recognized in profit or loss. If the Group retains an interest in the former subsidiary, such interest is
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
measured at fair value at the date control is lost.
Transactions Eliminated in Consolidation
In preparing these consolidated financial statements, intercompany balances and transactions of Group entities, as well as unrealized gains on transactions between Group companies, have been eliminated. Unrealized losses are eliminated in the same manner as unrealized gains, but only to the extent there is no evidence of impairment.
Uniform Group Accounting Policies
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of Group entities applying accounting policies different from the Group's policies are adjusted to conform to the Group's accounting policies.
Associates
Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method in the consolidated financial statements.
2. Assets under Management
The Group and the Company manage and administer assets on behalf of their clients, which are held in custodian bank securities and cash accounts. Financial information relating to these assets is not included in these financial statements, as the risks and rewards associated with these assets are entirely attributable to the Group's and the Company's clients. Accordingly, these assets are not recognized as assets of the Group or the Company. For informational purposes, assets under management are included in these financial statements; see Note 40.
3. Intangible Assets and Property, Plant, and Equipment
Intangible assets and property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment. Cost includes expenditures directly attributable to the acquisition of the intangible asset or property, plant, and equipment.
Depreciation Rates Applied for Intangible Assets and Property, Plant, and Equipment Using the Straight-Line Method:
| Years | |
|---|---|
| Software | 5 |
| Equipment | 3 |
| Computers | 3 |
| Furniture | 3 |
| Other fixed assets and inventory | 3-5 |
| Buildings and constructions | 20 |
| Long-term investments in leased fixed assets | 1-19 |
| Right-of-use for premises | 1-19 |
| Right-of-use for vehicles | 3-4 |
| Intangible contractual assets | 7 |
| Fair value revalued intangible assets | 5 |
| Fair value revalued intangible contractual assets | 7 |
| Fair value revalued receivables from loans issued | 4 |
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
All intangible assets are IT investments. IT investments are used in the operations of the Group and the Company to support client acquisition and service, including the mobile application and various other systems. For more detailed information, see Note 19 and 20.
The Group tests intangible assets for impairment at least annually and whenever there are indications that an intangible asset may be impaired. Any impairment losses are recognized as expenses in the profit or loss statement for the period in which they occur. When subsidiaries are disposed of, the profit or loss on disposal includes the carrying amount of intangible assets related to the sold subsidiary.
Software maintenance costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. Software installation and customization costs that are directly attributable to identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Group and the Company are recognized as intangible assets if the following criteria are met:
- It is possible to use or sell the software;
- It can be demonstrated that the software will generate future economic benefits; and
- The costs associated with acquiring the software can be measured reliably.
Current repair and maintenance costs of fixed assets are included in profit or loss for the period in which they are incurred.
Gains or losses from the disposal of fixed assets are calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and the proceeds from sale, and are included in profit or loss for the period in which they occur.
Capital repair costs of leased fixed assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the useful life of the improvements and the lease term. Current repair and maintenance costs of fixed assets are included in profit or loss for the period in which they are incurred.
The residual values, useful lives, and depreciation methods of assets are reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, annually.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquiring a subsidiary over the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary at the acquisition date. Goodwill arising from the acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets.
Goodwill reflects the excess of the cost of a business combination over the Group's share in the fair value of the acquired identifiable assets, liabilities, and contingent liabilities. The cost includes the fair value of the transferred assets, assumed liabilities, and issued equity instruments, plus any non-controlling interest in the acquired company, as well as the fair value of any previously held interest in the acquired company if the business combination is achieved in stages.
Contingent consideration is included in the cost at its fair value at the acquisition date, and if classified as a financial liability, it is subsequently remeasured through profit or loss.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units and is recorded at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
Impairment tests for goodwill are conducted annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
Gains or losses on the disposal of a subsidiary include the carrying amount of goodwill attributable to the sold subsidiary.
Negative goodwill arising on an acquisition is recognized in the consolidated profit or loss at the acquisition date.
Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed.
In 2025, the fair value of the identifiable net assets of each subsidiary was assessed at the acquisition date. As a result, fair value adjustments were made to the following asset items (see Note No. 18).
For the subsidiary AS DelfinGroup:
1) Receivables from loans issued;
2) Intangible assets.
For the subsidiary IPAS VAIRO:
1) Intangible contractual assets.
The fair value adjustments made will be amortized in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies (see Note No. 2, section "Intangible Assets and Fixed Assets").
4. Inventories
Inventories consist of card plastics, goods for resale, and gold products that are purchased and held for further sale. The Group uses the perpetual inventory method for inventory accounting.
Inventories are measured at cost. At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence of a decline in the value of inventories and creates provisions for slow-moving or damaged stock. Inventory losses are recognized at the time they are identified by writing off the respective inventories in the profit or loss statement for the period.
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. For the usage of card plastics, cost and remaining value are determined using the FIFO (First In, First Out) method.
5. Leases
Classification
At the inception of a contract, the Group and the Company assess whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
Lessee
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
A lease is recognized as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the date the leased asset becomes available for use by the Group and the Company. The cost of the right-of-use asset comprises:
- The initial measurement of the lease liability;
- Any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received;
- Any initial direct costs.
Restoration costs related to dismantling and restoring the underlying asset are separately classified as provisions and the related assets.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis from the commencement date of the lease to the end of the lease term, unless it is expected that the asset will be purchased. The right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for remeasurement of the lease liability.
Assets and liabilities arising from leases are measured at the present value of remaining lease payments, discounted using the Group's and Company's incremental borrowing rate at the initial application date, based on the Latvijas Banka domestic lending rate for enterprises at the initial recognition date. Lease liabilities are remeasured if future lease payments change due to a change in an index or rate used to determine these payments, if the Group's and Company's estimate of expected payments changes, or if the Group and the Company change their assessment of exercising purchase options, extending, or terminating the lease. When lease liabilities are remeasured, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset or recognized in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero.
Each lease payment is allocated between the lease liability and interest expense on the lease liability. Interest expense on lease liabilities is recognized in profit or loss over the lease term to produce a constant periodic interest rate on the remaining lease liability for each period.
Right-of-Use Assets
The Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date when the underlying leased asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the recognized lease liability, initial direct costs, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received. If the Group is not reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the recognized right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the asset's estimated useful life or the lease term. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment.
Lease Liabilities
At the commencement date, the Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease payments include fixed payments (including significant fixed components), less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
index or rate, and amounts expected to be payable under residual value guarantees. Lease payments also include the exercise price of purchase options if the Group reasonably expects to exercise the option, and penalties for lease termination if the lease term reflects that the Group will exercise the termination option. Variable lease payments that are not dependent on an index or rate are recognized as expenses in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
To calculate the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the lease liability is increased to reflect interest accrual and reduced by lease payments made. Additionally, the carrying amount of the lease liability is remeasured if there are changes in the lease term, changes in fixed lease payments, or changes in the assessment of the purchase option for the underlying asset.
Short-Term Leases and Leases of Low-Value Assets
Lease payments related to short-term leases or leases of low-value assets are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis in profit or loss. A short-term lease is a lease that, at the commencement date, has a lease term of 12 months or less. For more details, see Note 22.
The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to leases with a term of 12 months or less from the commencement date that do not contain a purchase option. This also applies to the low-value asset recognition exemption for leased equipment considered low-value (i.e., less than EUR 4,500). Lease payments for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
6. Investments in Subsidiaries and Associates (Company)
Investments in subsidiaries (i.e., companies in which the Company owns more than 50% of the share capital or otherwise controls) are initially recognized at cost, less any impairment losses.
After initial recognition, investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost, less any impairment losses.
If there is objective evidence that the carrying amount of an investment in a subsidiary has been impaired, the impairment loss is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the investment and its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the investment's fair value, less costs to sell, and its value in use. Impairment losses on investments may be reversed if the estimates used to determine the impairment have changed since the last recognition of an impairment loss. The assumptions applied are described in detail in Note 18.
Dividends received from subsidiaries are recognized when the Company's right to receive them is established.
Associates are entities over which the Company has significant influence or joint control. Typically, the Company holds 20% to 50% of the voting shares. Investments in associates are initially recognized at cost and subsequently accounted for using the equity method.
7. Revenue and Expense Recognition
Interest Income and Similar Income
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
Interest income and expenses are recognized in the comprehensive income statement using the effective interest rate (EIR) method.
For debt financial assets measured at amortized cost, the Group calculates interest income by applying the EIR to the gross carrying amount of the financial assets, except for assets with credit-impaired status. The EIR is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash flows or receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument, or, if appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability. The calculation considers all contractual terms of the financial instrument and includes all fees or incremental costs directly attributable to the instrument that are an integral part of the EIR, but excludes future credit losses. The carrying amount of a financial asset or liability is adjusted if the Group revises its estimates of future cash flows. The adjusted carrying amount is calculated based on the original EIR, and changes in carrying amount are recognized as interest income or expense.
When a financial asset is impaired, the Group calculates interest income using the effective interest rate applied to the asset's amortized net carrying amount. If the financial asset's condition improves and it is no longer credit-impaired, the Group returns to calculating interest income on a gross basis.
For purchased or originated credit-impaired (POCI) financial assets, the Group calculates interest income using the credit-adjusted EIR applied to the amortized cost of the asset. The credit-adjusted EIR is the rate that, at initial recognition, discounts estimated future cash flows (including credit losses) to the amortized cost of the POCI asset.
Interest income on pawn loans is calculated by applying the nominal interest rate to the gross carrying amount of the pawn loan. Interest is recognized for performing pawn loan portfolios until the loan becomes non-performing.
8. Interest Expenses and Similar Costs
The effective interest rate on financial liabilities is calculated at initial recognition. Interest expense is calculated by applying the EIR to the gross carrying amount of the liability. The EIR is periodically adjusted to reflect changes in cash flows from variable-rate instruments due to market interest rate changes.
Fees for managing the State-Funded Pension Scheme (SFPS) and private pension plans are calculated as a percentage specified in the plan prospectus of the average net asset value of the plan during the reporting period. Management fees are accrued daily, with settlements made monthly. Revenue received by the Company for asset management is recognized over time as the related performance obligations are satisfied, without requiring significant judgment to determine the transaction price or the completion of performance obligations.
Accrued income or contract assets at each period-end are presented under "Other Assets."
When determining the management fees for private pension plan and SFPS funds, the Company considers the maximum fee limits established in Cabinet Regulation No. 765 "Procedure for calculating and accounting management fees for state-funded pension scheme funds."
Other commissions and income and expenses are recognized when the related service is provided.
9. Other Income
Other income is recognized on an accrual basis when services are performed.
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when the Group satisfies a performance
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
obligation by transferring control of the promised goods or services to the customer. Control transfer is primarily indicated by the transfer of risks and rewards under the delivery terms. The Group typically satisfies its performance obligations at a point in time. Revenue allocated to performance obligations satisfied over time is not material. When a performance obligation is satisfied, the transaction price allocated to that obligation is recognized as revenue. The transaction price is the amount the Group expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to the customer. It is allocated to performance obligations in the contract based on the relative stand-alone selling prices of promised goods or services. Revenue is presented net of indirect taxes, such as VAT, penalties, and discounts.
Revenue from the sale of goods and precious metals includes the sale of short-term use goods and precious metals through the Group's branch network and online store. For retail customers, revenue is recognized at the point of control transfer, i.e., when the customer purchases goods in-store or when goods are shipped in online sales. Payment of the transaction price is due immediately at the time of purchase.
Other revenue includes revenue from providing pawn services—commission income for the storage of pawn collateral and the sale of collateral from non-performing pawn loans. Performance obligations are satisfied over time, and payment is typically made upon repayment of the pawn loan or through the sale of collateral from non-performing loans.
Dividend income is recognized when the Group's right to receive the dividend is established. Dividends are presented under "Other Income" and are recognized at gross value.
10. Expenses
Expenses are recognized on an accrual basis in the period in which they are incurred, regardless of the invoice payment date.
11. Foreign Currency Transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are converted into the functional currency (EUR) at the European Central Bank (ECB) reference rate published on the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the ECB reference rate published on the reporting date.
| 31.12.2025 | 31.12.2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 EUR | 1 EUR | |
| USD | 1.175 | 1.04 |
Foreign currency gains or losses on monetary items are determined as the difference between the amortized cost of the items in the functional currency at the beginning of the period - adjusted for interest income or expenses recognized during the period using the effective interest rate and for any payments received or made - and the amortized cost of the items in the foreign currency at the end of the period, translated using the ECB reference rate published at the end of the period.
Gains or losses resulting from foreign exchange rate fluctuations are recognized in the comprehensive income statement. At the end of the reporting period, the Group and the Company do not hold any foreign currency-denominated assets or liabilities.

12. Financial Instruments
Initial Recognition and Measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the statement of financial position on the date when the contractual terms of the instrument become binding on the Group and the Company. All regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on the settlement date, which is the date the financial asset is received or delivered.
Financial assets or financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, including transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset or liability.
After initial recognition, expected credit losses are recognized for financial assets measured at amortized cost, resulting in impairment losses on financial instruments being recognized in profit or loss.
If the fair value of a financial asset or liability differs from the transaction price at initial recognition, the Group and the Company account for the difference as follows:
- If the fair value can be determined using a quoted price in an active market for an identical asset or liability (i.e., Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy), or based on a valuation technique that uses only observable market data, the difference is recognized in profit or loss.
- In all other cases, the difference is deferred, and the period for recognizing the deferred day-one profit or loss is determined individually. It may be amortized over the life of the instrument, deferred until the fair value can be determined using observable market data, or recognized at realization.
Classification and Subsequent Measurement
Financial Asset Classification
At initial recognition, the Group and the Company classify all financial assets based on:
- The business model under which the assets are managed, and
- The contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset (SPPI criterion - whether the cash flows consist solely of principal and interest on the outstanding principal).
Under IFRS 9, classification is determined by assessing:
- Whether financial assets are held to collect contractual cash flows (HTC);
- Whether assets are held both to collect contractual cash flows and for sale (HTCS);
- Whether assets are held for trading purposes (TRD).
Based on the business model and the SPPI criterion, financial assets are classified into one of the following measurement categories:
- Amortized cost (AmC);
- Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI);
- Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).
Within the Group's and the Company's business model, financial assets are primarily held to collect contractual cash flows and meet the SPPI criterion. Accordingly, such financial assets, including securities, are classified and measured at amortized cost (AmC).
Financial assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position are classified as current or non-current based on the expected realization or settlement of contractual cash flows. Expected credit loss
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
(ECL) allowances are presented in the same maturity category as the corresponding financial assets to which they relate.
Financial Assets Measured at Amortized Cost
This category includes, for example:
- Consumer loans;
- Mortgage loans;
- Receivables from counterparties;
- Receivables from issuers;
- Trade receivables;
- Technical overdrafts;
- Cash and cash equivalents (where applicable).
These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method and are subject to the IFRS 9 expected credit loss (ECL) model.
A consumer loan is a type of credit granted to individuals to finance personal expenses without collateral, typically used for urgent purchases, household needs, or existing debt consolidation.
A current account overdraft is a short-term loan allowing account holders to withdraw more than the available balance, usually with applicable interest and defined repayment terms.
A mortgage loan is a long-term loan provided to individuals for the purchase, construction, or significant renovation of real estate. The loan is secured by a pledged property serving as collateral for repayment. The Bank currently offers refinancing of existing mortgage loans previously taken with another creditor.
Financial Assets at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets classified at fair value through profit or loss include equity investments and pawn loans.
Equity instruments are instruments that meet the definition of equity from the issuer's perspective; that is, instruments that do not contain contractual obligations to deliver cash or other financial assets and represent a residual interest in the issuer's net assets. Examples of equity instruments include ordinary shares. The Group and the Company measure all equity investments at fair value through profit or loss. Dividends, when they represent a return on such investments and the Group and the Company have established rights to receive them, are recognized in profit or loss.
Expected Credit Losses on Financial Assets
The expected credit loss (ECL) is calculated by considering the probability of default (PD), the exposure at default (EAD), loss given default (LGD), and the timing of losses.
Probability of Default (PD) reflects the likelihood that a loan will not be repaid and obligations will not be fulfilled within the next 12 months (for Stage 1 financial instruments) or over the instrument's lifetime (for Stage 2 and Stage 3 financial instruments). When estimating PD for each individual instrument, client categories and relevant external historical information are considered to incorporate reasonable forward-looking economic conditions.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
Exposure at Default (EAD) represents the estimated credit exposure at the time of default and is modeled each time the ECL is calculated.
Loss Given Default (LGD) reflects the portion of the exposure that is not expected to be recovered in the event of default and is determined considering collateral and recovery prospects.
The maximum period over which ECL is assessed is the maximum contractual term during which the Group and the Company are exposed to credit risk.
The ECL calculation incorporates macroeconomic factors affecting credit risk development. Forward-looking information (FLI) adjustments to the ECL are made based on historical correlations between key macroeconomic indicators and default probability, using expert judgment and external data sources. At minimum, a base scenario and one adverse scenario are used for FLI assessment.
In accordance with IFRS 9, the Group applies a specific approach for calculating ECL on loans issued by Group companies operating in consumer lending. Expected credit losses are determined based on historical data from the Group companies, calculating the probability of default (PD) according to the defined default criteria and loss given default (LGD) ratios, taking into account recoveries from non-performing or defaulted loans, including Stage 3 loans.
Credit Portfolio (Consumer and Mortgage Loans) ECL Model
The Group uses a collective ECL model for loans, including those in Stage 3. This model is applied to homogeneous groups of retail loans, such as consumer and mortgage loans, as individual assessments would be disproportionately costly relative to potential losses.
For mortgage loans, LGD is determined individually for each loan based on the characteristics of the collateral property (market value, liquidity, realization costs), which provides greater model granularity and accuracy.
Sources of PD / LGD / EAD
PD is determined using historical data. When historical data for a particular loan portfolio is insufficient, PD is estimated using external sources, including Credit Information Bureau (KIB) data and the EBA Risk Dashboard, adjusted for forward-looking macroeconomic information. For Stage 3 assets, PD is set at 100%.
LGD estimation considers historical and statistical data, as well as collateral quality, value, and other factors affecting cash flows from collateral realization. Where historical data is insufficient, external sources such as the EBA Risk Dashboard are also used.
EAD is modeled each time the ECL is calculated, based on the payment schedule in the loan agreement.
Stages and Significant Increase in Credit Risk (SICR)
The Group and the Company apply the expected credit loss (ECL) model to financial instruments within the scope of the impairment model as follows:
- Stage 1 - Financial instruments with no significant increase in credit risk. These are instruments for which credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition or for which credit risk is considered low (e.g., an external credit rating of BBB- or better is considered low credit risk). ECL is calculated as the 12-month expected credit loss, i.e., the expected losses over the next 12 months.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
-
Stage 2 - Financial instruments with a significant increase in credit risk (SICR). These instruments have not yet incurred a credit loss but have experienced a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. ECL is calculated as the lifetime expected credit loss, i.e., expected losses over the entire remaining contractual life of the instrument.
-
Stage 3 - Credit-impaired financial instruments. These are instruments that are credit-impaired. ECL is calculated as the lifetime expected credit loss, similar to Stage 2, but the instrument is considered impaired.
At each reporting date, the Group and the Company assess whether the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly since its initial recognition by analyzing changes in the probability of default over the instrument's expected life.
The Group has established a uniform policy for identifying significant increases in credit risk (SICR), while applying different approaches in the Group's subsidiaries according to their operational specifics and the risk assessment tools used.
Loans are classified in Stage 2 if, based on quantitative and qualitative risk indicators, including the evaluation of payment discipline, a significant increase in credit risk is identified, whereas payment delinquencies of 31 to 90 days are used in the Group as a general backstop indicator to ensure consistent classification and compliance with IFRS 9 requirements.
One of the main indicators of a significant increase in credit risk is changes in the probability of default (PD), which are determined by comparing the PD at the reporting date with the PD at the time of initial recognition of the asset.
Additional indicators that may signal a significant increase include:
- deterioration of the internal credit risk rating; or
- financial assets classified as financial assets on the watchlist; or
- modified financial assets (loan agreement terms have been revised and concessions granted due to the client's financial difficulties).
If the credit risk later decreases to the extent that the signs of a significant increase disappear, the instrument is moved back to Stage 1, applying the Bank's prescribed cure period.
Definition of Non-Performance of Obligations
Financial instruments for which obligations are not fulfilled are included in Stage 3. For accounting purposes, the bank applies the definition of non-performance of obligations as set out in the capital requirement regulation (Regulation (EU) No. 575/2013, the European Parliament and Council Regulation on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms, amending Regulation (EU) No. 648/2012, Article 178), namely, financial assets for which payment is overdue for more than 90 days. It is assumed that the credit value of all financial assets in Stage 3 has decreased. It is considered unlikely that the borrower will be able to fully meet the credit obligations without collateral, regardless of the overdue amounts and the number of days overdue. The company and the group make this conclusion based on a regular or ad-hoc analysis of the borrower.
ECL for Receivables from Transaction Partners
Receivables from transaction partners are not discounted because discounting has no significant
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
impact on the financial statements.
The repayment of transaction partner's credit obligations in case of default depends on the creditworthiness of the transaction partners, which is characterized by the assigned credit rating. Therefore:
- LGD is determined based on the recovery rate published by the credit rating agency Moody's for the amount of credit obligations to be recovered in the event of default, according to the assigned credit rating and the remaining term of the receivables;
- PD is determined based on the average default probabilities published by the credit rating agency Moody's according to the assigned credit rating and the remaining term of the receivables, with the data updated annually by Moody's.
If a transaction partner does not have a credit rating from the Moody's credit rating agency, the ratings assigned by Fitch or Standard and Poor's are used for that partner. If two external ratings are available and they differ, the lower one is used. If more than two ratings are available, the two lowest ratings are used, and if they differ, the higher of the two is used. If a transaction partner does not have an individual rating but belongs to a group of related parties, the applicable rating is determined based on the parent company's rating (if any) and the transaction partner's country rating (if any), choosing the lowest rating.
Debtors and Technical Overdrafts ECL
When determining the ECL for debtor receivables and technical overdrafts, they are divided into two main groups based on the type of debtor: individuals and legal entities. ECL is calculated using the PD * EAD * LGD approach. Discounting is not applied because it has no significant impact. Given that the bank lacks sufficient historical data to calculate PD and LGD, they are determined based on external data sources such as the EBA Risk Dashboard.
Amortized Cost and Effective Interest Rate Method
Amortized cost ("AmC") is the amount at which a financial instrument is initially recognized, minus any principal repayments, plus accrued interest, and for financial assets, minus any expected credit loss provisions. Accrued interest includes the amortization of transaction costs that were deferred at initial recognition and any premiums or discounts to be amortized over the life of the instrument using the effective interest rate method.
The effective interest rate method is a method of allocating interest income or interest expenses over the relevant period in such a way as to achieve a constant periodic interest rate (the effective interest rate) on the carrying amount of the financial instrument.
For assets acquired or originated with credit losses ("POCI"), the effective interest rate is adjusted for credit risk, i.e., it is calculated based on the expected cash flows at initial recognition, rather than contractual payments.
Financial assets are written off either fully or partially when all practical recovery measures have been exhausted and it is concluded that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Write-off is a derecognition event.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
Financial Liabilities
All financial liabilities are recognized at fair value, and in the case of borrowings, less directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest-bearing financial liabilities are recognized at amortized cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss when the liability is derecognized, as well as using the effective interest rate method. The amortized cost is calculated considering any acquisition discounts or premiums, as well as any fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The amortization of the EIR is included in profit or loss as net interest income. Liabilities measured at amortized cost include payables to creditors.
Derecognition
The recognition of a financial asset is derecognized when the contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset have expired or when the bank has transferred all the associated risks and rewards of ownership. Any compensation or liabilities that arise or are retained as a result of the transfer are recognized as a separate asset or liability.
The bank derecognizes a financial liability when it is extinguished, that is, when the liability is settled, cancelled, or has expired.
Set off
Financial assets and liabilities are set off, and the net amount is presented in the financial position statement when there is a legal right to do so, and the bank intends to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
13. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities
The fair value of assets and liabilities is the price at which an asset could be sold or a liability settled in a normal transaction between market participants at the valuation date.
Fair value is the price that would be received for the sale of an asset or paid for the transfer of a liability in a normal transaction between market participants at the valuation date in the principal market, or in the absence of such a market, the most advantageous market to which the Group has access at that date. The fair value of liabilities reflects the risk of non-performance of the obligation.
The fair value of financial assets and liabilities is classified into the following fair value levels:
- Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets;
- Level 2: Adjusted quoted prices or valuation models using observable inputs from active markets;
- Level 3: Valuation models where significant inputs are not available from markets and are based on internal assumptions.
The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument at initial recognition is the transaction price, i.e., the fair value of the consideration paid or received, unless the fair value of the instrument can be proven by comparing it with other observable current market transactions for the same instrument (i.e., without modification or repackaging) or based on a valuation model whose variables include only observable market data.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
When the transaction price provides the best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument at initial recognition, the financial instrument is initially measured at the transaction price, and any difference between this price and the value obtained from the valuation model at initial recognition is recognized in comprehensive income depending on the individual facts and circumstances of the transaction, but no later than when the valuation fully relies on observable market data or the transaction is closed.
Several accounting principles and disclosure requirements for the Group and the Company require the determination of the fair value of financial assets and liabilities. If applicable, additional information about the assumptions used to determine fair value is disclosed in the relevant appendices.
If management believes that the fair value of a financial asset or liability significantly differs from its carrying amount, such fair values are disclosed separately. See also Note 32.
14. Pawn Loans
Pawn loans are collateralized loans without recourse. If the client does not redeem the pledged asset by repaying the secured loan by the end of the contract term, the Group has the right to dispose of the goods to cover the outstanding loan balance. Pawn loans are recognized when funds are disbursed to borrowers, and their recognition is discontinued when income-bearing loans are repaid or non-income-bearing loans' collateral is sold. Given that pawn loans do not meet the SPPI criteria, they are initially recognized and then measured at fair value.
The pawn loan portfolio is divided into two categories: income-bearing and non-income-bearing loan portfolios. The income-bearing loan portfolio includes loans where the repayment term has not yet occurred or loans that have already been extended. The non-income-bearing loan portfolio includes loans that have not been repaid by the write-off date, and repayment depends on the realization of collateral.
15. Other Debtors
Receivables from customers and contractors are recorded and reflected in the balance sheet according to the terms of the contracts, less any provisions for expected credit losses. Provisions for expected credit losses (ECL) on receivables are recognized based on a forward-looking assessment in accordance with IFRS 9, taking into account historical loss rates, current conditions, and reasonable forecasts of future economic conditions. Receivables are written off when their recoverability is considered impossible.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are cash in hand and highly liquid assets with an original maturity of less than three months, which the Group and Company use for short-term debt settlement. For the purpose of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, balances in current accounts, and deposits with a maturity of up to 90 days.
16. Accrued Liabilities
The "Accrued Liabilities" item represents the clearly identifiable liability amounts to suppliers of goods and service providers for goods or services received during the reporting period, for which no corresponding payment document has been received by the balance sheet date due to delivery, purchase, contract conditions, or other reasons. This item also includes accrued liabilities for
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
employees' unused vacation days and variable compensation.
17. Employee Benefits
Short-term employee benefits, including salaries, social insurance contributions, bonuses, and vacation benefits, are recognized as expenses on an accrual basis when the service is provided. Accruals for employees' vacation pay are estimated based on the unused vacation days up to the balance sheet date.
Short-term employee benefits are recorded as expenses when the relevant service is rendered. Liabilities are recognized for the amounts expected to be paid if the Group has a current legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of the employee's past work, and if this obligation can be reliably estimated.
The Group and Company make mandatory state social insurance contributions for state pension insurance under the Latvian legislation to the state-funded pension scheme. The state-funded pension scheme is a defined contribution pension plan, under which the Group and Company are required to make payments of a specified amount under the law. The Group and Company do not have additional legal or constructive obligations to make further payments if the state-funded pension scheme is unable to meet its obligations to employees. The mandatory social insurance contributions are recognized as expenses on an accrual basis and are included in employee costs.
18. Share-Based Payments
Expenses are recognized as part of employee compensation along with the corresponding increase in equity (share-based payment reserves) over the period in which the service is rendered and the performance conditions are met (vesting period). Cumulative costs recognized at the end of each reporting period for share-based payments settled using equity instruments reflect the past service rendered during the vesting period and the Group's and Company's best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will vest. Costs or income in the comprehensive income statement for the respective period reflect the changes in cumulative costs recognized at the beginning and end of the period.
No expense is recognized for share-based payments that do not vest, as the relevant off-market and/or performance conditions were not met during the vesting period. If share-based payments include market or non-vesting conditions, transactions are accounted for as vested, regardless of whether the non-vesting conditions have been met, as long as all other conditions and/or performance conditions have been satisfied.
If the terms of share-based payments settled using equity instruments are modified, the minimum recognized expense is the fair value of the unmodified compensation at the grant date, provided the initial vesting conditions have been met. Any additional costs determined on the modification date are recognized for any changes that increase the total fair value of the share-based payment or otherwise provide the employee with a benefit. If the Company or employee cancels the share-based payment, any remaining fair value of the share-based payment is immediately recognized in the comprehensive income statement.
Share-Based Payment Agreements For employee share-based payment agreements, the fair value of the equity-settled share-based payment at the grant date is generally recognized as an expense, increasing equity over the vesting period. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
the number of awards for which it is expected that the related service and non-market performance conditions will be met, so that the final recognized amount is based on the number of awards that meet the relevant service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For share-based payments with conditions not related to the granting of rights, the fair value of the share-based payment at the grant date is assessed to reflect these conditions, and no adjustment is made to account for differences between expected and actual outcomes.
19. Corporate Income Tax
The expense for corporate income tax for the reporting period is recognized in the financial statements based on management's calculations in accordance with the tax legislation of the Republic of Latvia. According to the Corporate Income Tax Law of the Republic of Latvia, adopted on July 28, 2017, and effective from January 1, 2018, a 20% rate is applied to the distributable profit.
Corporate income tax is calculated on the distributed profit (20/80 of the amount payable to shareholders). Corporate income tax will be recognized when the decision on profit distribution is made by the subsidiaries and the Company's shareholders. The subsidiaries and the Company also calculate and pay tax on the conditionally distributed profit (20/80 of the calculated tax base), which includes taxable items under the Corporate Income Tax Law, such as non-business expenses, doubtful receivables, and loans to related parties, if they meet the criteria set out in the Corporate Income Tax Law, as well as other expenses exceeding the limits for deduction set by the law. Corporate income tax on conditionally distributed profit is recognized in the comprehensive income statement for the period in which such expenses arise.
20. Taxes
The Group's taxes for the period consist of the calculated corporate income tax for the reporting period and deferred taxes. Current corporate income tax liabilities for the reporting period and prior periods are measured based on the amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities, according to the tax rates and laws in effect at the reporting date or those enacted thereafter. Corporate income tax is calculated on distributed profit or expenses, which are considered to be conditionally distributed profit (20/80 of the net amount payable to shareholders).
In 2024, amendments to the Corporate Income Tax Law were adopted for non-bank credit institutions, which specify that starting from 2024, these institutions are required to pay an additional 20% tax on the previous year's after-tax profit, which is calculated and paid after the submission of the annual report. Therefore, in addition to the tax calculated on the paid dividends, from 2024, expenses for the corporate income tax surcharge will also be recognized, calculated as 20% of the after-tax profit for the reporting year.
The corporate income tax on the distributed profit is recognized when the shareholder makes a decision on the profit distribution, while the tax on conditionally distributed profit and the tax surcharge is recognized in the profit or loss statement for the period in which the tax is calculated. Deferred corporate income tax is recognized based on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and their tax bases. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized for temporary differences related to intangible assets or the initial recognition of assets or liabilities (except for business combinations) that
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
do not affect either taxable profit or accounting profit at the time of the transaction.
Deferred income tax assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the Group will have sufficient future taxable profits to realize these assets, until the estimated amount by which future taxable profits will be reduced. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured using the tax rates that are expected to apply when the temporary differences are expected to be settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been or are substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the tax consequences that the Group expects to incur at the end of the reporting period in order to settle its assets or liabilities.
21. Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share are determined by dividing:
- the profit or loss attributable to the Company's shareholders, excluding any equity transaction costs, unless they relate to ordinary shares;
- by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the reporting period, adjusted for any ordinary share bonus elements and repurchased treasury shares issued during the period.
Diluted Earnings per Share
Diluted earnings per share adjust the result obtained by calculating basic earnings per share to take into account:
- the after-tax impact of interest and other financial costs related to potential additional ordinary shares, and
- the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would arise if all potential ordinary shares were converted.
Earnings per Share
Earnings per share are determined by dividing the net profit or loss attributable to the shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reporting year. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in circulation during the year, plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued by converting all dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.
22. Dividend Payment
Dividends payable to shareholders are recognized as liabilities in the financial statements in the period when the shareholders approve the dividend payment.
23. Segment Information
The Group's and Company's management reviews the results of the Group and has identified two operational segments:
(i) asset management, which includes the assets of the newly acquired subsidiary IPAS VAIRO, and (ii) bank development. See Note 38.
Management primarily uses operating profit before customer acquisition costs to assess the performance of each segment. Monthly, management receives information on segment revenue, net
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
profit, and assets.
In 2025, the INDEXO Group acquired AS DelfinGroup, and its results were included in the Group's consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025. According to this approach, DelfinGroup's balance sheet figures are included in the Group's segment information. However, as the acquisition took place at the end of the year, DelfinGroup's operating results are not included in the profit or loss calculation for the reporting year.
Thus, the segment information in this annual report reflects only the core business revenues and expenses that the INDEXO Group generated prior to the acquisition of DelfinGroup. The Group's management believes that this separation of figures provides more complete and transparent information about the Group's core operations and its actual financial position at the end of the period.
Contingent Liabilities and Assets
In this financial report, contingent liabilities are not recognized. They are only recognized as liabilities when the likelihood of the outflow of resources becomes sufficiently probable. Contingent assets are not recognized in this financial report but are disclosed only when the likelihood of economic benefits arising from the transaction reaching the Company and the Group is sufficiently probable.
2.3. Risk Management
The Group and the Company organize their operations in the area of risk management in accordance with the regulatory frameworks governing the operations of the Group and the Company, as well as by following the strategies and other governing documents of the Group and the Company. The Bank is responsible for overseeing risk management at the Group level, establishing and ensuring the overall risk management framework for the Group, setting the principles and rules for the implementation of risk management strategies, risk assessment, reporting, analysis, management, and control, and overseeing the implementation of these rules and the local risk management functions within the Group's entities.
The Group and the Company identify all significant risks inherent to their activities and develop, document, and implement appropriate policies for managing these risks, including measurement, assessment, control, mitigation measures, and risk reporting and information provision.
The objectives of risk management for the Group and the Company are to:
- Establish and maintain a system for identifying and managing risks within the Group and the Company that minimizes the negative impact of risks on operations and performance as much as possible;
- Identify and define the acceptable level of risks that will help the Group and the Company achieve their strategic goals;
- Set levels of responsibility for the Group and Company's risk management system and its functions;
- Define the structure and methods of the risk management system;
- Ensure compliance with the regulatory requirements governing the Group and the Company's operations.
The risk management system is integrated into the Group and the Company's internal control system,
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
providing independent risk control and operational compliance functions that are separate from the business functions.
1. Risk Management Structure
The Boards of the Group's companies are responsible for establishing and ensuring the effective functioning of the risk management system, as well as for approving the relevant risk management policies and strategies.
The Management Boards of the Group's companies are responsible for implementing the risk management strategies and policies approved by the Board.
The Group's Risk Director is the Risk Director of the Bank. The Group's Risk Director:
- Leads the Bank's risk control function;
- Ensures the monitoring and continuous improvement of the risk management system within the Group's companies;
- Regularly provides comprehensive and clear information about the Group's and the Company's overall risk profile, all significant operational risks, and their compliance with the risk management strategy to the Bank's Board, Management, and other stakeholders;
- Consults and provides support to the Group and Company Boards in the development of business strategies and in decision-making related to risks associated with the Group and Company's operations.
The Group's companies identify significant risks inherent to their operations, including in the context of capital requirements, and develop risk management policies and procedures. They also ensure compliance with the risk management policies and procedures, including controls for the observance of established limits and restrictions, as well as providing regular reports and information to the Boards and Management of the Group's companies. This allows the Risk Director, the Board, and Management to constantly assess the risks that affect the ability of the Group and the Group's companies to achieve their goals, and to take corrective actions as necessary.
The Bank oversees operational compliance risk at the Group level, setting the basic principles for identifying, assessing, and managing compliance risks within the Group and the Company. The Company's compliance function is responsible for managing compliance risks related to the Company's operations.
The internal audit function provides independent and objective assurance regarding the Group's and the Company's adherence to risk management strategies, policies, and procedures, reporting the results of audits to the Boards of the Group's companies, as well as assessing the effectiveness of the risk management system.
The heads of the Group and the Company's departments and other employees are aware of their duties and responsibilities in the day-to-day management of risks. Within their areas of competence, they regularly report to the Risk Management function on the observance of established limits and restrictions, and participate in the identification, impact assessment, and materiality determination of risks within their areas of competence.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
2. Internal Control System
Risk management within the Group and the Company is based on a three-line-of-defense model and is organized to prevent or escalate any potential conflicts of interest.
First line of defense - Primary risk management, implemented by all business and support units and their employees, who daily identify and manage risks arising from their operations. In the first line, risk identification and the implementation of risk mitigation measures are carried out.
Second line of defense - Independent identification, assessment, analysis, and monitoring of risks, performed by the risk management, compliance, anti-money laundering (AML), counter-terrorism financing (CTF), sanctions compliance, fraud prevention, transaction monitoring, and data protection functions.
Third line of defense - Independent assurance on the effectiveness of the risk management and internal control systems, provided by the internal audit function.
The Group has implemented a process for preventing conflicts of interest, as well as a due diligence procedure for business partners. The Board oversees the monitoring of anti-money laundering, counter-terrorism financing, and sanctions compliance, with a designated responsible board member.
3. Risk Culture
The Group and the Company promote a risk culture that encourages the right behavior, based on the Group's and the Company's values, best industry practices, and ethical standards.
The Group and the Company ensure the creation of a comprehensive risk culture that facilitates the effective implementation of the risk management process, taking into account the development strategy and risk strategy of the Group and the Company.
4. Risk Measurement and Mitigation
At the end of the reporting period, the Group and the Company comply with all regulatory requirements.
Risk assessment is carried out by the Group and the Company based on developed methodologies, and the Bank assesses the capital adequacy required to cover the risks inherent to the Bank's and the Group's operations, based on the European Parliament and Council Regulation (EU) No. 575/2013 (June 26, 2013) on prudential requirements for credit institutions, as amended by Regulation (EU) No. 648/2012, and the standardized and basic indicator approaches described in the Regulation, as well as simplified methods described in the Latvian Bank's rules No. 321, "Regulations on the Capital Adequacy Assessment Process for Credit Institutions," dated September 30, 2024.
To assess the risks inherent in or expected for the operations of the Group and its companies, the
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
Group companies also perform stress testing.
To mitigate risks inherent to the Group and its companies, the Group companies develop and implement a limit control system that covers approved limits and defines the risk appetite limits specified in the business strategy. In cases where a risk limit violation is identified, the responsible person reports to the Group's Risk Director and the Management Board of the relevant Group company. In case of a regulatory limit breach, the Group company immediately informs the Bank of Latvia, and further actions are taken in accordance with the Bank of Latvia's regulatory requirements. The Supervisory Board of the Group company is also informed about the breach, and an action plan for remedying the breach is prepared and approved.
5. Risk Materiality Assessment Process
Significant risks are those risks inherent to the Group's and the Company's operations that could substantially negatively affect the Group's and the Company's reputation, ability to provide services, achieve strategic objectives, and/or result in substantial financial losses.
According to the nature of the Group's operations, significant risks are considered to include:
6. Credit Risk
The Group and the Company's goal in credit risk management is to maintain an optimal balance between credit risk, the expected return on assets, and liquidity. The credit risk management framework of the Group and the Company is based on an adequate assessment of the creditworthiness of borrowers and business partners, as well as adherence to established limits and restrictions.
The Group and the Company only invest funds in financial assets whose risks can be identified.
The Group and the Company mainly assume credit risk in Latvia. The Group and the Company issue only those loans where the risks of the borrower can be identified, assessed, and managed.
At the time of this report's preparation, the Group's operations that entail credit risk include the placement of funds in banks, investments in securities, issuing consumer and mortgage loans, and lombard loans. The Company's credit risk operations at the time of this report include the placement of funds in banks and loans issued to associated companies.
The Group and the Company assess credit risk both at the time of loan issuance and regularly throughout the loan's term, at least quarterly.
Each potential borrower undergoes an automated creditworthiness check, and a loan is not issued if criteria indicating an unacceptable credit risk are identified.
Loan issuance is executed through an automated process, with manual decisions being made only in specific cases. Loan agreement amendments are approved according to the internal regulatory documents. The evaluation of the loan application considers the client's creditworthiness, using external credit ratings as well as internal risk levels. Additionally, indicators such as DTI (Debt-to-
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
Income) and DSTI (Debt-Service-to-Income) ratios are analyzed. Given the characteristics of unsecured loan segments and the elevated credit risk concentration, enhanced control procedures are implemented both during the loan issuance process and in the timely identification of underperforming clients, along with the creation of provisions. Multiple client identification and verification methods are used for risk assessment, including identity checks, income analysis, and evaluation of existing obligations, cross-referencing the application data with external sources. Applications are analyzed using an automated credit risk underwriting process and centralized credit risk models based on client registration, application data, identification, fraud checks, and credit information.
In the unsecured loan segment, regular debt assignment practices are employed, while for secured loans, collateral valuation is carried out by qualified appraisers. The realization of collateral for lombard loans is organized in branches or through digital channels.
7. Concentration Risk
The Group and the Company integrate the concentration risk management system within the internal control framework and identify risk drivers that can create concentration risks in various operational areas.
Concentration risk is closely related to other risks, and its management system forms part of the various risk management policies and associated procedures of the Group and the Company.
Concentration risk is mitigated by setting various concentration limits, including limits for large risk transactions.
The Bank ensures compliance with large risk transaction limits both at the Bank's individual level and at the Group's consolidated level, as outlined in the European Parliament and Council Regulation (EU) No. 575/2013 (June 26, 2013) on prudential requirements for credit institutions, as amended by Regulation (EU) No. 648/2012, which classifies as large-risk transactions those whose value exceeds 10% of the Bank's and/or the Group's Tier 1 capital.
During the financial reporting period, both at the Bank's individual level and at the Group's consolidated level, it was ensured that the exposure to any single client or a group of connected clients did not exceed 25% of the Group's and the Company's Tier 1 capital. If a client is a credit institution or an investment broker company, or a group of connected clients containing one or more credit institutions or investment broker companies, and the client's country of registration is an EU member state or an equivalent jurisdiction (as determined by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/1753 of October 1, 2021, concerning the equivalence of regulatory requirements for third countries), the total risk exposure to such a client shall not exceed 100% of the Group's and the Company's Tier 1 capital. If the client is registered in a non-compliant jurisdiction, the risk exposure shall not exceed 25% of the Group's and the Company's Tier 1 capital.

8. Excess Leverage Risk
Excess leverage risk is the risk arising from the vulnerability of the Group's companies caused by actual or potential leverage in their funding structure, which could require unforeseen corrective measures regarding the Group's companies' strategy, including asset sales triggered by financial difficulties that may result in losses or adjustments in the value of remaining assets. Excess leverage risk may also arise from a decrease in the Group's and/or Group companies' Tier 1 capital due to losses or excessive accumulation of risk transactions against Tier 1 capital. The leverage risk is characterized by the leverage ratio and the mismatch between assets and liabilities.
The leverage ratio is calculated at the reference date for reporting, both at the Bank's individual level and at the Group's consolidated level, by dividing the Tier 1 capital measure by the total assets (excluding those excluded), the measure of the sum of off-balance-sheet risk transactions, and expressing it as a percentage.
9. Market Risk
Market risk is the potential for the management service recipient of the Company to incur losses due to the revaluation of financial instruments in its investment portfolio, which is related to changes in market values due to factors such as currency exchange rates, interest rates, equity prices, or the issuer's creditworthiness. The objective of market risk management is to reduce the market risk inherent in pension plans by investing in a variety of different types of investments and across various regions, thus mitigating the negative impact of financial instrument price declines.
10. Foreign Exchange Risk
Foreign exchange risk is the potential to incur losses from the revaluation of financial instruments denominated in foreign currencies due to fluctuations in exchange rates.
During the reporting period, the Group and the Company did not have and, as of the end of the reporting period, did not hold any significant foreign currency positions that could materially affect the Group's and Company's assets or liabilities.
The Company manages both direct foreign exchange risk, which arises from investments in financial
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
instruments denominated in foreign currencies, and indirect foreign exchange risk, which arises from investments in funds denominated in euros that further invest these funds in financial instruments denominated in foreign currencies. Indirect foreign exchange risk is managed by setting the investment asset allocation goal for debt securities portfolios linked to euro-denominated investment category bond indices in investment funds.
11. Interest Rate Risk
The objective of interest rate risk management is to ensure an appropriate balance between the interest rate risk assumed by the Group's companies and their yield to minimize the potential negative impact of interest rate risk on the financial condition and operations of the Group and/or Group companies.
Interest income is primarily generated by promoting the expansion of the credit portfolio, mainly by financing Latvian residents, and making every effort to prevent an increase in the NPL (Non-Performing Loan) ratio above the level specified in the risk appetite.
To assess interest rate risk, the Bank, as the responsible entity for risk management at the Group level, regularly evaluates and plans the repricing term structure both at the Bank's individual level and at the Group's consolidated level, calculates the reduction in net interest income and economic value due to adverse interest rate changes, and determines the amount of capital required to hedge the interest rate risk, both at the Bank's individual level and at the Group's consolidated level.
Interest rate risk assessment is based on the following principles:
- The impact of interest rate changes on financial results and economic value is evaluated at both the Bank's individual and Group's consolidated levels.
- The interest rate risk level is determined.
- All significant interest rate risks related to assets, liabilities, and off-balance-sheet items are evaluated.
The sources of interest rate risk are:
- Basis risk - the risk of incurring losses when interest rates change on instruments sensitive to interest rate changes with identical repricing or maturity dates but different base rates.
- Gap risk - the risk of incurring losses due to an imbalance in the term structure of instruments sensitive to interest rate changes, covering interest rate term structure changes that occur consistently across the yield curve (parallel risk) or differently across time intervals (non-parallel risk).
- Option risk - the risk of incurring losses when instruments sensitive to interest rate changes directly (e.g., options contracts) or indirectly (e.g., loans with early repayment options, demand deposits, term deposits with early withdrawal options, fixed-rate loans) have options that change the size and terms of cash flows.
The degree to which the Group is exposed to interest rate risk is reflected in the term structure of interest rate-sensitive assets, liabilities, and off-balance-sheet claims and liabilities, prepared by considering the remaining repayment or interest rate revision terms of financial instruments sensitive to interest rate changes, selecting the shortest term.
12. Liquidity Risk
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
The objective of liquidity risk management is to ensure the necessary level of liquidity, achieving an appropriate, optimal balance between return and risk according to the established risk management principles.
The Group and the Company implement a liquidity management strategy, considering the maturity and volatility of the raised funds, the liquidity level of assets, as well as the balance between the maturity of assets and liabilities, changes in the Group's and the Company's operations, and external circumstances affecting it.
The Group and the Company assume liquidity risk within the set limits and restrictions.
To manage liquidity risk, the Group and the Company apply a combination of asset and liability management methods:
- Asset management related to accumulating liquidity reserves, investing excess cash in line with management decisions and cash flow forecasts.
- Liability management based on the ability to raise financing if necessary.
To ensure liquidity, the Bank, as the entity responsible for overseeing risk management at the Group level, as well as the Company, undertakes the following activities:
- Regularly assesses and plans the term structure of assets and liabilities.
- Ensures that liquid assets are available in sufficient amounts for fulfilling obligations.
- Controls the funding structure.
- Performs intra-day liquidity risk monitoring.
- Regularly assesses the liquidity risk level, including conducting stress tests.
- Develops internal regulations for liquidity risk management, enabling timely identification, evaluation, analysis, and monitoring of liquidity risk.
The Bank has introduced an early warning system that allows for the early identification of potential difficulties and the operational assessment of the need to implement liquidity risk mitigating measures.
Please refer to Note 32 for the liquidity analysis of the Group's and the Company's assets, liabilities, and off-balance-sheet obligations, which was conducted considering when these can be recovered, repaid, or used as collateral for obtaining liquid assets.
13. Operational Risk
Operational risk is the risk of incurring losses due to inadequate or failed internal processes, human actions, system performance, or external events. This includes legal and documentation-related risks, as well as the risk of losses arising from trading, settlement, and valuation procedures carried out on behalf of the management service recipient. Information and communication technology (ICT) risks are assessed within the framework of operational risk.
The objective of operational risk management is to ensure effective and successful operations while minimizing the likelihood of unexpected losses. The impact of operational risk is always considered when making business decisions.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
The operational risk management system in the Group and the Company is established on the assumption that certain operational risk is inherent to all Group and Company activities, processes, and systems.
All Group and Company employees are responsible for the daily identification of operational risk. The key elements of operational risk management include:
- Operational risk identification;
- Operational risk self-assessment;
- Operational risk monitoring;
- Operational risk control and mitigation;
- Operational risk stress testing.
To promptly detect operational risk events and implement appropriate mitigation measures, the Group and the Company have established a database for recording operational risk events. Within the Group and the Company, a procedure is in place requiring any employee, regardless of position, to immediately register any operational risk event that has caused or could potentially cause losses (regardless of their form). All operational risk events registered in the database are reviewed, and if necessary, risk mitigation measures are developed and implemented to improve the internal control system.
The Group's and Company's information and communication technologies are vital for maintaining sustainable business operations. To mitigate risks associated with ICT operations, the Group and the Company ensure timely remediation of identified control deficiencies, implement consistent third-party risk management, and develop and continuously improve technological controls.
The Group and the Company establish and implement the procedures, scope, and quality of outsourced services required for their operations to manage and minimize risks associated with outsourcing and its potential impact on business continuity. Before delegating any function, the Group and the Company evaluate the risks associated with outsourcing to ensure it can continue providing stable and sustainable operations.
The objective of legal risk management is to ensure compliance with the laws of the Republic of Latvia, European Union legislation, and other applicable compliance laws, regulations, and standards in the legal support of the Group's and the Company's operations.
14. Sustainability Risk
Sustainability risk is the risk that an event or circumstances in the environmental, social, or corporate governance (Environmental, Social, Governance - ESG) areas could negatively impact the value of investments managed by the Company. The Company's risk appetite in sustainability, or the amount of sustainability risk the Company is willing to take on to achieve its investment strategic goals, is considered medium. The Company balances the potential environmental, social, and governance risks associated with investments against the potential long-term benefits in line with its investment strategy.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
The Company strives to select investments that at least meet the medium ESG rating level.
15. Model Risk
The objective of the model risk strategy is to ensure that the developed models are fit for their intended purpose, align with the specific operations and complexity of the Group's companies, are sufficiently accurate and reliable, and are properly documented and managed.
The Group's companies take all possible measures to ensure that the internal models used are well understood, including their methodology, input data, assumptions, limitations, and results, and that they are validated, reviewed, monitored, and adjusted as needed.
16. Reputation Risk
The Group's companies refrain from engaging in activities that may result in or be associated with an increased reputation risk, regardless of financial benefits or compensation. Reputation is fundamentally important and is carefully analyzed when making decisions.
Any media coverage of the Group's companies is monitored to build a positive corporate image, continuously tracking media mentions and taking timely actions to prevent negative media escalation and public backlash.
Valid customer complaints are addressed at the management level and resolved promptly and appropriately. Special attention is given to managing information security risks, reducing significant information security incidents such as large-scale customer data breaches or violations of sensitive information confidentiality.
17. Compliance risk
Compliance risk is the risk that the Group and the Company will incur losses or be subject to legal obligations or sanctions, or that their reputation will deteriorate, if the Group and the Company fail to comply with or breach compliance laws, regulations and standards.
The Group and the Company operate in a manner that ensures compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Compliance management within the Group and the Company is ensured by defining clear roles and responsibilities and by implementing external regulatory requirements through internal policies and procedures that are transparent and understandable to employees.
The Group and the Company take all necessary measures to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including in the areas of conflict of interest management, personal data protection, information security, etc.
18. AML/CFT and Sanctions Risk
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
An effective risk management system in the areas of Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Countering the Financing of Terrorism (CFT), and sanctions is crucial to ensure that these risks are identified, continuously monitored, and managed with appropriate mitigation measures.
The Group and its subsidiaries, according to their type and scale of operations, conduct and document an assessment of AML, CFT, and sanctions risks to identify, assess, understand, and manage the risks associated with their activities and clients. The goal of this risk assessment is to help the Group understand the AML, CFT, and sanctions risks it faces and to evaluate the necessary actions and resources required to implement mitigation measures. Based on this assessment, an internal control system (ICS) for AML, CFT, and sanctions is established, along with the development and documentation of relevant policies, procedures, and instructions.
The subsidiaries within the Group have established and maintain an internal control system and policy that ensures compliance with the regulatory requirements of Latvia and the European Union, as well as outlining the duties and responsibilities of employees in this area across all Group companies, in line with their business activities.
AML, CFT, and sanctions risks are managed based on the risk assessment, which considers the specific risks of each subsidiary within the Group, national and EU risk evaluations, as well as the characteristics of clients, investors, business partners, products, services, and supply channels. Based on this, an internal control system and associated internal regulations are developed and regularly reviewed (at least once every 18 months or upon significant changes).
The Group applies a risk-based approach to the assessment of clients, investors, and business partners, ensuring client due diligence and enhanced due diligence in high-risk cases, as well as determining situations where business relationships are not initiated or are terminated. The Group ensures the identification of suspicious transactions, refrains from conducting them, and reports them promptly to the Financial Intelligence Unit and other competent authorities, in accordance with the prohibition to inform clients about such reports.
To ensure the effective operation of the system, the Board oversees the management of risks and receives regular reports from the responsible employee. The Board ensures compliance with regulatory requirements, allocates resources, and ensures the proper qualification of personnel. Additionally, a responsible member of the Board and a responsible employee (head of the AML/CFT function) are appointed to organize and monitor the implementation of the AML/CFT internal control system.
The Group regularly conducts employee training in the fields of AML/CFT and sanctions, and ensures the technological solutions for client due diligence, transaction monitoring, and sanctions screening. Documents and information regarding clients and AML/CFT measures are stored and processed in accordance with regulatory requirements.
19. Business Model Risk
The Group's companies maintain a reasonably diversified, viable, and sustainable business model, offering a wide range of financial services to clients with varying needs. During the establishment and
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
development phase of INDEXO Bank, the business model risk was elevated until the Bank could operate with operational profit.
The Group's companies strategically build their service offering based on next-generation financial technologies.
To mitigate business model risks, the Group's companies continuously monitor operational performance against set plans and, if necessary, take appropriate actions.

Employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are recognised as expenses when the related service is rendered. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and if the obligation can be reliably measured.
Remuneration policy
To ensure a high long-term employee performance culture, the Group and the Company determine remuneration that is competitive, differentiated, follows business logic, aligns with market practices, and reflects employee competence and long-term performance. The total remuneration paid for a certain period of time must not jeopardize the Group's and the Company's ability to produce positive results over the relevant business cycle.
Group's Remuneration policy in its current version was approved on 28 March 2025 at the Company's shareholders' meeting. The Policy establishes the core principles governing the remuneration of the Management Board and Supervisory Board of IPAS INDEXO. On 7 April 2025, the Supervisory Boards of IPAS INDEXO, AS "Indexo Atklātais Pensiju Fonds", and AS INDEXO Banka approved a new INDEXO Group Remuneration Policy, which regulates the principles for determining remuneration for officials and employees across the respective INDEXO Group entities. The INDEXO Group Remuneration Policy applies to all employees, as well as Management Board and Supervisory Board members of the Group's companies. With respect to the Management Board and Supervisory Board members of IPAS INDEXO, the Policy applies insofar as it does not conflict with the Remuneration Policy of the Management Board and Supervisory Board of IPAS INDEXO, which is approved by the Shareholders' Meeting of IPAS INDEXO. The core principles of the INDEXO Group Remuneration Policy are reviewed on a regular basis to ensure alignment with the Group's operational plans, growth strategy, regulatory requirements, and the results of internal control system assessments. A significant enhancement in the updated version of the Policy relates to Chapter 6, introducing stricter conditions for determining the fixed component of remuneration for specific roles. A remuneration framework has been implemented under which positions are evaluated and assigned to defined salary bands. Each salary band has a predetermined range for the fixed component of remuneration. The internal audit function regularly checks compliance with the core principles on remuneration. Based on the audit results, action plans are prepared to address the identified weaknesses in the internal control system and to implement improvements.
The remuneration structure of the Group and the Company consists of three components:
- base salary;
- variable part of remuneration (only in monetary form);
- other additional benefits.
The fixed part of the remuneration consists of a part of the salary that is independent of the employee's individual performance. The fixed part of the remuneration is determined by considering the employee's level of education, professional experience, position, duties and responsibilities. This is usually the salary. For the members of the Supervisory Council there is a fixed remuneration determined by shareholders' meeting for the participation in Council's and committees' meetings.
Other additional benefits in monetary and non-monetary form that are included in the standard remuneration package for employees and members of the Management Board and the Supervisory Council are considered to be part of the fixed remuneration and include, for example, contributions for employees to a private pension fund, health insurance, allowances in exceptional circumstances, use of mobile phones purchased by the Company and/or payment of mobile-related expenses, paid participation in seminars, training sessions and other benefits.
The variable component of remuneration may be granted to specific categories of employees and is based on achieved individual performance and pre-defined quantitative and qualitative criteria. In addition, the variable component of remuneration for Management Board members and employees may be granted:
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
(i) as compensation for compliance with non-competition obligations upon termination of employment or other legal relationships, which within a one-year period may not exceed 100% of the individual's fixed remuneration received in the previous year; (ii) as severance compensation upon termination of employment or other legal relationships exceeding the severance amounts prescribed by the Labour Law but not exceeding six months of the individual's fixed remuneration.
During 2025, the variable remuneration of sales specialists and sales team managers consisted of a performance-based component linked to individual results. This component was determined and paid monthly in accordance with IPAS "Indexo" internal regulations governing sales specialists' working time, remuneration, bonus determination, and training. Variable remuneration paid to sales specialists and sales team managers in 2025 did not exceed the policy limit of 500% of the employee's annual variable remuneration. In 2025, variable remuneration was not paid to Supervisory Board members, Management Board members, or employees in positions that have a material impact on the risk profile of the Group or the Company. The total remuneration of the Company's employees during 2025 is presented in the table below.

2025 Share Option Programme
The employee share option programme approved in 2025 has been established as a long-term motivation and retention instrument aimed at strengthening employee and Management Board engagement in the Company's development, supporting retention, and aligning interests towards the growth of overall shareholder value.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
The programme provides for the granting of up to 130 000 employee share options, with each option granting the right to acquire one newly issued share at an exercise price of EUR 7. Options are granted free of charge and become exercisable after a 36-month vesting period, following which they may be exercised once per year on the option exercise date determined by the Management Board.
Options that are not exercised at the nearest exercise date are automatically cancelled. Following the acquisition of shares, employees are subject to a 24-month restriction period on share disposals. Employees may dispose of up to 15% of shares during the first six months, an additional 15% during the following six months, and up to 30% during the subsequent 12 months. A contractual penalty of 20% of the value of improperly disposed shares applies in cases of non-compliance with disposal restrictions.
a.
The programme applies to all employees and Management Board members of the INDEXO Group who maintain active employment relationships. If employment is terminated during the vesting period, the granted options are automatically cancelled, except where employment continues within another entity of the Group.
The programme establishes a clear framework for the granting, registration, exercise, and share issuance process, including the share capital increase procedure following option exercise, ensuring a transparent and consistent approach to the administration of this long-term incentive instrument.
Share options AS DelfinGroup
In September 2021, the shareholders approved a share option plan for employees and the Group's management. Under the programme, up to 450 000 new shares may be issued. The first share options under the plan were granted to employees in December 2022. In accordance with the AS DelfinGroup share option plan, parent company share options are granted to employees of AS DelfinGroup. Eligibility to receive employee share options is subject to the following conditions:
The employee has been employed by the Company for at least 12 months;
The employee has achieved individual performance targets set by management and contributed to the achievement of overall business objectives.
To exercise the share options, the holder must be employed within the Group. Upon exercise, option holders are entitled to subscribe for newly issued shares of AS DelfinGroup at a price of EUR 0.10 per share. The minimum vesting period from the grant date until the date on which the option may be exercised is 12 months. Option agreements must be exercised within one month following the exercise date, and cash settlement is not permitted.
In connection with the share option plan, the Group recognised share-based payment expenses of EUR 90 694 during the reporting year, compared to EUR 66 750 in 2024, and reversed previously recognised expenses of EUR 38 904, compared to EUR 13 158 in 2024. The reversals were recognised because not all employees who held share options exercised them, and certain employees terminated their employment with AS DelfinGroup within 12 months of the grant date and were therefore not eligible to exercise their options.
Although the remaining 320 679 plan options have been approved for future share-based schemes, they have not yet been included in binding agreements, and therefore no expense has been

Fair value measurement
The fair value of share options is estimated at the grant date using the Black Scholes option pricing model. In estimating the fair value of the options, the terms and conditions under which the share options were granted are considered, together with assumptions applied to adjust the Black Scholes model calculations. Where available, market data is used as model inputs, including the share price, expected dividend yield, and the risk-free interest rate. The weighted average fair value of options granted at the measurement date ranged from EUR 1.00497 to EUR 1.09660, compared to a range of EUR 0.90056 to EUR 0.90776 in 2023.

12. Loans and receivables from non-banks
Consumer loans (unsecured loans) represent loans granted to individuals to finance personal expenses without collateral. These loans are typically used for urgent purchases, household needs, or consolidation of existing liabilities.
Overdrafts on current accounts (unsecured credit) represent short term credit facilities that allow account holders to withdraw funds more than their available balance, subject to applicable interest and repayment terms.
Mortgage loans (loans secured by real estate) represent long term loans granted to individuals for the acquisition, construction, or substantial renovation of residential property. The loan is secured by a pledge over real estate, which serves as collateral for the borrower's obligations. AS INDEXO Banka currently offers refinancing of existing mortgage loans originally granted by other lenders.

*- The ownership interest acquired by IPAS INDEXO as at the balance sheet date of 31 December 2025. In January 2026, an additional 4.10% ownership interest was acquired, increasing total ownership to 71.52%.
2021 was the first year in which AS "Indexo Atklātais Pensiju Fonds" offered its services. "AS Indexo Atklātais Pensiju Fonds" has remained loss-making since the first year of operations. Losses were planned for the first years of operation of the APF as the private pension plans under management are yet to accumulate the number of customers and related investments in the plans to generate sufficient returns in a form of asset management fees to cover operating costs.
In 2025, AS "Indexo Atklātais Pensiju Fonds" share capital was increased by EUR 15 000. On 31 December 2025 share capital of AS "Indexo Atklātais Pensiju Fonds" consists of 790 000 shares with a nominal value of 1 EUR per share.
The Company has assessed the recoverable amount of the investment by discounting the expected future cash flows of its subsidiary. The key assumptions used for value in use calculation is as follows:

AS DELFIGROUP
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
Following approvals from the Bank of Latvia, the Bank of Lithuania, and the Competition Council, a voluntary share buyback offer expressed by IPAS INDEXO for the shares of AS DelfinGroup took place from 24 November 2025 to 8 December 2025. Under the offer, DelfinGroup shareholders were given the option to exchange their DelfinGroup shares for newly issued INDEXO shares at an exchange ratio of one INDEXO share for 7.3 DelfinGroup shares, or to sell their DelfinGroup shares for a cash consideration of EUR 1.30 per share. Shareholders also had the option not to participate in the offer and to retain their AS DelfinGroup shares. As a result of the voluntary offer, as of 15 December 2025 IPAS INDEXO had acquired 30 643 883 shares in AS DelfinGroup, representing 67.42% of the total voting share capital of DelfinGroup. Through this transaction, IPAS INDEXO also obtained control over the subsidiaries within the AS DelfinGroup group:
1) SIA ViziaFinance, engaged in non-bank lending through the issuance of unsecured consumer loans. The company holds a consumer lending licence issued by the Consumer Rights Protection Centre;
2) UAB DelfinGroup LT, engaged in pawn lending and the sale of pre-owned goods;
3) DELFINGROUP RO IFN S.A., whose principal activity will be consumer lending in Romania following the receipt of the relevant operating licence.
AS DelfinGroup is a Latvian fintech company holding a consumer lending licence issued by the Consumer Rights Protection Centre (PTAC in Latvian). Established in 2009, the company currently operates in Latvia, Lithuania, and Romania. In addition to operating under the DelfinGroup brand, the company also conducts business through the Banknote and VIZIA brands. AS DelfinGroup has operated profitably every year since 2010 and has been a listed company since 2021. In 2020, a dividend distribution policy was approved, providing for regular quarterly dividend payments of 50% of the previous quarter's profit. The company continuously develops and offers consumer lending services, unsecured loans, short term and long-term pawn loans, and the sale of pre-owned, slightly used, and new goods through more than 80 branches across Latvia, as well as online.
This voluntary share buyback transaction represents the first transaction of this scale in the Latvian capital market. Through the transaction, INDEXO aims to increase the value of both groups by combining their respective strengths and complementary business lines. INDEXO holds strong positions in the pension market alongside the rapidly growing INDEXO Banka, while DelfinGroup operates a well-established consumer lending business supported by an extensive branch network. Significant synergy potential is expected across product portfolio development, marketing, and funding. The transaction also provides clear financial benefits to both parties. By acquiring a majority stake in AS DelfinGroup, INDEXO will gain access to a recurring dividend stream, supporting the accelerated growth of AS INDEXO Banka through reinvestment into lending and development. At the same time, DelfinGroup will gain access to substantially lower cost funding, strengthening its financial performance and enabling further growth opportunities.

Following settlement of the voluntary share buyback offer for AS DelfinGroup on 15 December 2025, IPAS INDEXO acquired 67.42% of the total voting share capital of AS DelfinGroup. After completion of the voluntary buyback settlement on 15 December 2025, the management of IPAS INDEXO determined a convenience date of 31 December 2025, practically, this means that although actual control was obtained on 15 December 2025, for financial reporting purposes DelfinGroup AS and its subsidiaries are consolidated starting from 31 December 2025. Accordingly, the statement of comprehensive income of DelfinGroup AS for 2025 is not consolidated; only the balance sheet is consolidated. This decision was made considering practical considerations related to transaction accounting, as well as the need to ensure completeness and comparability of financial information. Management concluded that the net impact of the transaction on consolidated profit or loss for the period from 15 December 2025 to 31 December 2025 was immaterial, amounting to a net profit of EUR 607 thousand.

At the acquisition date, the fair value of the identifiable net assets was assessed. As a result, fair value adjustments were recognised for the following asset classes:
1) Loans and receivables from customers – The fair value of loans and receivables from customers was determined using a discounted cash flow approach. The valuation model is based on projected contractual cash flows derived from the actual terms of loan agreements, taking into account scheduled amortisation over the repayment period and expected future interest payments over the contractual life of the loans. A discount rate of 18% was applied in the valuation. This rate reflects the yield required by market participants for the acquisition of a comparable loan portfolio at the acquisition date, considering the following risk components:
- risk-free rate;
- uncertainty and volatility exceeding ECL assumptions;
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
- liquidity and marketability risk;
- operational risk;
- collection and recovery risk.
When modelling expected future cash flows, the calculations also incorporated early loan repayments, the volume of which was determined based on the historically observed share of early repayments in DelfinGroup’s existing portfolio, as well as on reasonable assumptions regarding borrowers’ future behaviour, taking into account the specifics of DelfinGroup’s operations, a more competitive lending environment and a conservative modelling approach, as early repayment risk may materially affect portfolio revenue projections.
Credit risk was modelled by applying stage-specific probability of default (PD) assumptions to each credit stage. PD levels were determined based on the structure of the DelfinGroup portfolio and historically observed default rates. For Stage 1 exposures, PD assumptions were conservatively adjusted upward, reflecting the currently low default environment in Latvia and the expectation of a potential deterioration in borrowers’ creditworthiness over the longer term. Loss given default (LGD) assumptions were determined primarily based on historical loss experience observed when borrowers reached default status, adjusted where necessary to reflect current market trends and recovery expectations.
2) Intangible assets - For valuation purposes, intangible assets were classified into two categories: internally developed software assets and other intangible assets. Both internally developed software and other intangible assets were valued using a discounted cash flow (DCF) approach. Within the discounting process, projected cost development was used as a key valuation input. The primary assumption applied relates to expected growth in employee compensation costs, reflecting the ongoing development, enhancement, and maintenance requirements of the respective intangible assets. For internally developed software assets, salary growth assumptions applicable to information technology professionals employed within the financial services industry were used, applying an annual growth rate of 5.0%. For other intangible assets, salary growth assumptions applicable to the broader information technology sector were applied, using an annual growth rate of 5.9%. The compensation growth benchmarks were derived from market data compiled by Figure Baltic Advisory. The applied valuation methodology reflects the expected cost dynamics and prevailing market conditions relevant to the continued development and maintenance of the respective intangible assets.
In addition to the asset classes described above, other assets were also assessed as part of the purchase price allocation, including the following:
1) The revaluation of AS DelfinGroup real estate properties was performed using two valuation approaches. Under the first approach, data from the Arco Real Estate 2024 real estate market report was used, reflecting current market trends and price levels. Under the second approach, the cadastral universal valuation was applied, where the standard adjustment coefficient of 0.8 was replaced with a coefficient of 1.0 to better reflect the fair value of the real estate as at the reporting date. Based on the results obtained from both approaches, the differences were assessed as immaterial, and therefore no fair value adjustment was recognised in the financial statements.
2) AS DelfinGroup performs regular fair value remeasurement of inventories; therefore, no additional revaluation was performed at the acquisition date.

Minority shareholders' participation, representing the non-controlling interest, is recognised and presented in the financial statements using the fair value method at the acquisition date. Accordingly, the non-controlling interest is measured at fair value, including its attributable share of the acquiree's net assets at fair value.

As a result of the voluntary offer, as of 31 December 2025 IPAS INDEXO had acquired 30 643 883 shares of AS DelfinGroup, representing 67.42% of the total voting share capital of DelfinGroup. Of this, 62.06% was acquired through the share swap and 5.36% through cash settlement. At the time of completion of the transaction, DelfinGroup's market capitalisation was approximately EUR 59 million (total number of DelfinGroup shares 45 448 915 multiplied by their share price on 15 December EUR 1.30).
The gain on bargain purchase recognised in the amount of EUR 117 thousand reflects the difference between the consideration transferred by IPAS INDEXO and the fair value of the identifiable net assets of AS DelfinGroup attributable to the acquired ownership interest. This relatively small difference, representing approximately 0.3% of the transaction value, indicates that the transaction price did not materially differ from the assessed fair value of DelfinGroup. The combination was therefore executed at a price that appropriately reflected market participants' view of the company's value at the acquisition date. The bargain purchase gain primarily arose from the fact that a significant portion of the shares was acquired through a share swap, reflecting investor confidence in the future growth

IPAS VAIRO
Following approval from the Bank of Latvia, on 19 September 2025 IPAS INDEXO acquired IPAS VAIRO ("VAIRO"), obtaining 100% of VAIRO's shares. The total consideration amounted to EUR 1.45 million, of which EUR 580 000 was paid in cash and EUR 870 000 was contributed as a noncash contribution to IPAS VAIRO. As a result of the transaction, IPAS VAIRO was included in the INDEXO Group, and VAIRO's pension investment plans continue to operate without changes.
IPAS VAIRO is an investment management company managing Latvian second pillar pension plans. At the acquisition date, 13 084 clients had entrusted more than EUR 89 million in pension assets to IPAS VAIRO.
The integration of VAIRO into the INDEXO Group represents a positive development for VAIRO's clients and for the Latvian financial sector. Through this transaction, INDEXO further strengthens its position as a locally owned financial services group serving Latvian residents.
The investment is consistent with INDEXO's strategy to expand its range of financial services and build a strong domestic capital financial group, reinforcing its position in the Latvian second pillar pension market.

- Profit of IPAS VAIRO for the period from 1 October 2025 to 31 December 2025 attributable to the IPAS INDEXO consolidation group.
At the acquisition date, the fair value of the identifiable net assets was assessed. As of 30 September 2025, the net assets of IPAS VAIRO amounted to EUR 216 thousand, primarily consisting of cash and cash equivalents of EUR 222 thousand, which approximate fair value and were recognised at that amount. As IPAS VAIRO operates as an investment management company, a separate intangible asset, "Contractual customer agreements," was recognised at acquisition. These represent legally binding, transferable agreements with clients in respect of specific second pension pillar investment plans. The fair value of this intangible asset at the acquisition date amounted to EUR 1 234 thousand and was determined using a discounted cash flow method. The valuation was based on management assumptions regarding:
- customer attrition (IPAS VAIRO historically had the highest attrition rate in the market; in the first-year attrition was assumed at approximately 20%, gradually declining in the long term to 10%, slightly above the market average),
- retirement assumptions (a retirement model was developed; more than 80% of IPAS VAIRO clients are aged 45 or younger, therefore retirement age had a limited short-term impact, however it remains a critical variable for overall model accuracy),
- contribution rates (5%, assuming no legislative changes; in Latvia, contributions to the state funded pension system second pension pillar are made as a fixed percentage of gross salary and allocated to individual pension investment accounts; starting from 2025, the contribution rate was reduced from 6% to 5%, with the difference reallocated to the first pension pillar solidarity system),
- market growth (8% for equity markets and 2% for bond markets throughout the projection horizon),
- salary growth (7% annually),
- fee changes (fees were reduced as IPAS VAIRO pension plans will be integrated into IPAS INDEXO plans, thereby lowering maximum fee income potential; the Bank of Latvia applies a fee tier system where maximum allowable fees decline as assets under management increase;
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
given that IPAS INDEXO manages significantly larger assets than IPAS VAIRO, the applicable fee level aligns with INDEXO's fee structure and is projected to reach the minimum regulatory fee cap of 0.25% in the long term),
- a 15% discount rate (managements internally determined required rate of return, consistent with the Group's weighted average cost of capital WACC, calculated using the standard WACC methodology incorporating the risk-free rate, beta coefficient, expected market return, Latvian equity risk premium, country risk premium and Latvian government risk premium).

*Software development and capitalisation
Certain IT employees are involved in developing technical solutions required for the Group's operations. To meet both corporate and client needs, new technical solutions and IT systems are regularly developed, and existing systems are continuously enhanced. As IT systems and technical solutions are developed internally by the Group's IT department, the related salary and payroll tax costs of those IT employees directly involved in development activities are capitalised. The list of capitalised employees is reviewed monthly, and the capitalised amount is determined based on the actual work performed. After initial recognition as an asset, development costs are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. In 2025, capitalised salaries and related payroll taxes for such systems amounted to EUR 747 595 (2024: EUR 0). These systems are continuously improved and support loan issuance, credit portfolio growth, provision of financial services and sale of goods. Accordingly, future economic benefits are expected to be generated over an extended period, which supports their capitalisation.
Other intangible assets primarily consist of outsourced IT programming services related to the development and implementation of technical solutions for the Group's operations. The future economic benefits associated with these outsourced services are expected to flow to the Group over a longer period, thereby justifying capitalisation.
Goodwill
Goodwill arose within the Group in 2015 following the acquisition of SIA Rigas pilsētas lombards (currently SIA ViziaFinance) for EUR 880,000. At the acquisition date, the net assets of the acquired entity amounted to EUR 752,384, and the difference of EUR 127,616 was recognised as goodwill. Goodwill has an indefinite useful life and is not amortised. It is tested annually for impairment. During the reporting year, no indicators of impairment were identified and, accordingly, goodwill remains recognised in the statement of financial position at EUR 127,616.

The Group applies IFRS 16 to lease transactions. During the reporting period, the Group leased several office premises. AS INDEXO Banka’s lease agreement for office premises at Roberta Hirša 1 is effective from 15 July 2024 until 15 July 2029, and the related lease liability is calculated using a 6.4% discount rate. For the purpose of determining the discount rate, AS INDEXO Banka uses the intercompany lending rate published by the Bank of Latvia on the specific calculation date. The lease agreement includes annual indexation. Under the contract, the maximum indexation coefficient is 4%, but it cannot be lower than 2.5% per year. The indexation rate applied in 2025 was 2.9%.
During the reporting period, AS INDEXO Banka reassessed the lease term and currently does not consider it necessary to extend the contract. In determining the lease term, management considered all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise or not exercise extension options. Extension options are included in the lease term only where there is reasonable certainty that the lease will be extended. Potential future cash outflows are not included in lease liabilities as there is no reasonable certainty that the lease will be extended.
The sales office lease agreement is valid until 31 July 2026, and the lease liability is calculated using a 6.36% discount rate.
Right of use assets are recognised in the statement of profit or loss within the following line items: Interest expense and similar charges (Note 6) and administrative expenses (Note 5).
AS DelfinGroup lease agreements for premises are concluded for periods ranging from two years to eighteen years and six months. Vehicle lease agreements are concluded for periods ranging from three to five years. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate for premises leases in 2025 was 8.4% (2024: 8.31%), while the weighted average incremental borrowing rate for vehicle leases in 2025 was 5.2% (2024: 6.85%).
The total amount of short-term lease and low value asset lease payments recognised as expenses in the statement of profit or loss as of 31 December 2025 was EUR 2 393 (31 December 2024: EUR 4 569). Total cash outflows for leases as of 31 December 2025 amounted to EUR 1 135 762 for the Group and EUR 984 791 for the Company. Variable lease payments are not included in the measurement of lease liabilities. Right of use assets are not subleased.

IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
In the fourth quarter of 2023, amendments to the Corporate Income Tax (CIT) law were introduced in Latvia, stipulating that a CIT advance payment must be made in the amount of 20% of the unadjusted accounting profit derived from lending operations in Latvia. The advance paid may be used to fully offset dividend distribution tax without any expiration date. As a result of these amendments, additional tax expenses for 2023 were recognised retrospectively.
Previously, CIT in Latvia was payable upon profit distribution rather than when profit was earned. The recent legislative changes require an advance payment of CIT on profits earned in Latvia from 2023 onwards.
These CIT advance payments may only be offset against future dividend distribution tax. Accordingly, the CIT advance amount, which is calculated based on profit and can generally be offset against future distribution tax, is recognised as an expense in the reporting period in which the profit is earned. No additional CIT expense will arise in respect of the Group's dividend distributions from retained earnings generated under the previous tax regime (prior to 2018).
The deferred tax asset relates to temporary differences and tax losses carried forward from the operations of DelfinGroup LT UAB. There is no statutory expiry period for prior year tax losses; however, the Group expects to utilise the deferred tax asset within the next five years.

In September 2025, DelfinGroup registered a new unsecured bond issue in the amount of EUR 25 000 000. The purpose of the issue was to refinance existing financial liabilities, including existing bonds (ISIN LV0000802718) and a loan from Signet Bank, as well as to finance further growth of the loan portfolio. The bonds were issued with ISIN LV0000106649, nominal value per bond EUR 1 000, coupon rate 9.5%, coupon payment frequency monthly, and maturity date 25 September 2027. The bonds were issued in a private placement with a minimum subscription amount of EUR 100 000.
In connection with the issuance of bonds LV0000106649, holders of the existing bonds ISIN LV0000802718 were offered a bond exchange. As a result of the exchange offer, existing investors subscribed to the new LV0000106649 bonds in the total amount of EUR 4 005 000. Accordingly, the issue size of bonds LV0000802718 was reduced to EUR 10 995 000. The remaining bonds LV0000802718 are planned to be repaid on their maturity date on 25 February 2026.
In 2025, DelfinGroup also registered new subordinated bonds in the amount of EUR 5 000 000. The bonds are offered in a private placement with a minimum investment amount of EUR 100 000. The coupon rate of the bonds is set at 11.5%, with a term until 25 September 2030. As of 31 December 2025, all bonds are held in the placement account (liability balance EUR 0) and will be offered to investors if the Group sees the need to sell these bonds.
On 15 October, DelfinGroup commenced listing of subordinated bonds ISIN LV0000870145 on the Nasdaq First North Alternative market. These bonds were previously available only to a limited number of investors within a private placement but are now available for free trading. By offering subordinated bonds on the exchange, DelfinGroup provides greater liquidity to existing and potential investors. Subordinated bonds (ISIN: LV0000870145) have been issued in the amount of EUR 5 000 000 with an interest rate of 11.0% + 3M EURIBOR, and their nominal value is EUR 1 000 per bond. The maturity date of these bonds is 25 May 2029.

To ensure funding for the development of the loan portfolio, DelfinGroup continued to use the Mintos investment platform, through which investors from more than one hundred countries invested in loans issued by the Group. DelfinGroup has been attracting funding through Mintos since 2016, and during this period DelfinGroup has succeeded in attracting investments in excess of EUR 400 million. As a result, DelfinGroup's outstanding liabilities on the Mintos platform as of 31 December 2025 amounted to EUR 30.1 million.
The Group has developed a strategic plan to issue new bonds in order to refinance current liabilities that have reached their repayment term, to cooperate with credit institutions to obtain financing from them, as well as to continue placing loans on the Mintos P2P platform. This approach will allow the Group to settle outstanding debt using proceeds obtained from the sale of these newly issued bonds, borrowings received from credit institutions, and funding attracted on the Mintos platform.

In 2025, the Consumer Rights Protection Centre (hereinafter – PTAC) initiated one administrative case against SIA ViziaFinance and one case against AS DelfinGroup. Regarding SIA ViziaFinance, it is related to the review of the consumer creditworthiness assessment method “income – expenditure” in connection with PTAC’s intention to improve the application of this method across the industry. In parallel with the administrative case, PTAC is updating the existing guidelines on the assessment of consumers’ ability to repay credit. SIA ViziaFinance has agreed to several PTAC invitations related to improving the application of the method, while discussions between SIA ViziaFinance and PTAC are ongoing regarding certain invitations.
The case initiated against AS DelfinGroup relates to the assessment of the borrower’s creditworthiness and its compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. In this case, AS DelfinGroup has provided its responses to PTAC, and on a voluntary basis AS DelfinGroup has commenced the use of all credit information bureaus operating in Latvia as of 30 September 2025 in relation to obtaining information on consumers’ credit liabilities.
PTAC may impose a fine on AS DelfinGroup in accordance with Section 15.2, Paragraph 11 of the Unfair Commercial Practices Prohibition Law, which sets out the maximum applicable amount of the fine. However, the Group’s management does not acknowledge that regulatory requirements have been breached and has obtained a legal opinion from one of the largest law firms in Latvia supporting its position. As at the date of signing these financial statements, PTAC has not adopted final decisions. Management does not believe that the outcome of these cases will require material adjustments to the financial statements.

During 2025 and 2024, there were no reclassifications between levels of the fair value hierarchy.
Cash and cash equivalents comprise euro currency cash and deposits with the Bank of Latvia, the carrying amount of which approximates fair value.
Other financial assets consist of card security deposits, cash in transit and office lease security deposits; therefore, their carrying amount equals fair value.
Loans and receivables from customers are financial assets measured using the discounted cash flow method. All rates correspond to average industry rates. The methodology for determining fair value is described in the principal accounting policies.
Unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement
The table provides information on significant unobservable inputs used as of 31 December 2025 and 2024 in measuring financial instruments classified within the fair value hierarchy as level 3.
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
| Type of financial instrument | Fair value as of 31 December | Valuation technique | Significant unobservable inputs | Key unobservable inputs | Sensitivity of the fair value measurement to unobservable inputs |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pawn loans | Group: 2025: 8 026 (2024: 0) | Discounted cash flow | Sales costs | 2025: 8% - 28% (2024: 0%) | A significant increase in any of these inputs individually would result in a lower fair value. |
| Discount rate | 2025: 9%-190% (2024: 0%) | ||||
| Expected cash flow return | 2025: 27% - 31% (2024: 0%) | ||||
| Maximum markup | 2025: 65%-85% (2024: 0%) |
Significant unobservable inputs are obtained as follows:
- Sales costs and markup are derived from historical trends. Sales costs reflect expenses related to the sale of repossessed collateral and include salaries, branch expenses, marketing and other costs. The sales markup cap sets limits on profit amounts charged from sales.
- Expected cash flows are derived from the company's business plan and by comparing historical planned results with actual results.
Impact of unobservable inputs on the fair value measurement
Although the Group believes that its fair value estimates are appropriate, the use of different methodologies or assumptions could lead to different fair value measurements. Changing one or more of the assumptions used in relation to Level 3 fair value measurements to reasonably possible alternative assumptions would result in the following impact.
Impact on profit or loss
Favourable (Unfavourable)
| 31 December 2025 | Pawn loans | 727 461 | (790 159) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 31 December 2024 | Pawn loans | - | - |
The favourable and unfavourable impact from the use of reasonably possible alternative assumptions for the valuation of pawn loans has been calculated by recalibrating the model values using unobservable inputs – costs of sale, discount rate, expected recovery and maximum markup.
As of 31 December 2025, the key inputs and assumptions used in the models included:
- average monthly discount rate of 15.88% (with reasonably possible alternative assumptions of 14.88% and 16.88%) (in 2024: 15.7%, 14.7% and 16.7%, respectively).
- cumulative average expected return of 29.31% (with reasonably possible alternative assumptions of 31.31% and 27.31%) (in 2024: 29.6%, 31.6% and 27.6%, respectively).
- average maximum markup of 85% (with reasonably possible alternative assumptions of 65% and 105%) (in 2024: 85%, 65% and 105%, respectively).
- average sales costs of 18.4% (with reasonably possible alternative assumptions of 8% and 28%) (in 2024: 18%, 8% and 28%, respectively).
Collateral of pawn loans
Pawn loans issued by the Group are secured by the borrower's pledged collateral, which limits the
INDEXO
IPAS "Indexo" Consolidated Annual Report for 2025 and the independent auditor's report (Translation of the Latvian original)
Group's claim rights to the cash flows of the underlying collateral (non-recourse loans). The table below presents the main types of collateral held against pawn loans:
| 2025 | 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Goods | 3 736 679 | - |
| Gold | 4 288 516 | - |
| Total | 8 025 195 | - |
In the following tables, pawn loan credit exposures are presented by loan-to-value (LTV) ratio ranges. LTV is calculated as the ratio of the gross loan amount to the value of the collateral. The collateral valuation does not include any adjustments related to the repossession and sale of the collateral. The value of goods collateral is determined based on the collateral value at the time the loan is issued.
| LTV rādītājs | 2025 | 2024 |
|---|---|---|
| Goods | ||
| Less than 50% | 127 889 | - |

| 91–100% | 360 179 | - |
| Greater than 100% | 170 655 | - |
| Total | 3 736 679 | - |
The value of gold collateral is determined based on the market price of gold on the loan disbursement date, and the loan value may be up to 95% of the market price of gold.
38. Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker is the person or the Group that allocates resources to and assesses the performance of the operating segments of the Group. The Management Board of the Group's parent company IPAS "Indexo" is the chief operating decision maker. The Group distinguishes two separate segments (i) asset management, (ii) banking activities and (iii) non-bank lending. Operating activities of both segments are in Latvia. Segment results reflect the operating results of each respective entity or group of entities.
1) Asset management (IPAS INDEXO, IPAS VAIRO, IAPF)
Includes management of the assets of state-funded pension scheme investment plans and private pension scheme investment plans.
2) Bank development (AS INDEXO Banka)
Includes all the revenues, costs and main balance sheet items for the Banking activities.
3) Non-bank lending (AS DelfinGroup)
Includes all the revenues, costs and main balance sheet items for the non-bank lending activities.

41. Interest rate risk
The Group and the Company are exposed to interest rate risk in relation to the maturities of financial assets and financial liabilities subject to interest rate risk, based on the shorter of the remaining maturities of financial instruments exposed to interest rate risk and the interest rate repricing dates. The table below summarises the Group’s and the Company’s financial assets and liabilities at carrying amount, categorised by the earlier of the contractual interest rate repricing date or maturity date. For the assessment of interest rate risk, the Group and the Company apply the simplified standardised methodology referred to in Regulation (EU) 2024/857, which determines the core deposit base (stable non-maturity deposits whose repricing is unlikely in significantly changing interest rate environments and market conditions), as well as their allocation across time bands. Accordingly, the Group and the Company do not perform customer behavioural modelling in relation to accounts without specified repricing dates or accounts with no defined maturity, considering the characteristics of both depositors and customer accounts.
The Group and the Company identify instruments sensitive to interest rate changes, including financial instruments with embedded options (transactions with early withdrawal or early redemption options), and perform customer behavioural modelling by determining the term deposit early redemption rate and the conditional prepayment rate for fixed interest rate loans, based on historical observations that are consistent over time, to the extent available. The loan prepayment rate reflects expected annual prepayment amounts, while the term deposit early redemption rate reflects cumulative expected redemption amounts over the life of the term deposit.
During the initial operating period, while the Group and the Company do not yet have sufficient historical data, the Group and the Company determine these rates using available historical information, expert judgement, professional experience and available information about the market and competitors, as well as taking into account the potential impact on current and future loan prepayment speeds arising from the economic environment, contractual terms, interest rate change scenarios and other factors affecting customer behaviour.

42. Going concern
The financial year 2025 for the INDEXO Group ended with a loss of EUR 7.74 million (loss of EUR 5.38 million in 2024). The losses are mainly related to the launch and development of INDEXO Banka, including significant investments in technological infrastructure and the development of new services.
INDEXO Banka commenced operations on 28 August 2024 and completed its first full year of operations in 2025. At the end of 2025, the Bank’s client base reached 49.7 thousand (21.1 thousand at the end of 2024) with total deposits of EUR 73.8 million (EUR 33.1 million at the end of 2024), while the loan portfolio exceeded EUR 55 million (EUR 1.1 million at the end of 2024). As the Bank’s operations commenced relatively recently, revenues have not yet reached a level sufficient to fully cover operating costs, resulting in the Bank closing the reporting period with a loss of EUR 9.24 million.
During 2025, IPAS INDEXO increased the Bank’s capital by EUR 10 million, while the Bank attracted subordinated borrowings in the amount of EUR 1.8 million. At the end of 2025, the Bank’s capital adequacy ratio stood at 21.26% (54.17% in 2024), exceeding the regulatory guideline

recommendation of 20%. The liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) at the end of the reporting period was 529.67% (1 273.49% in 2024), significantly exceeding regulatory recommendations.
In January 2026, IPAS INDEXO successfully completed the acquisition of AS DelfinGroup shares in several stages, acquiring a total shareholding of 71.52% in the company. Considering that AS DelfinGroup operates with stable and high profitability, because of the transaction, INDEXO Group becomes profitable from the first day of consolidation. Accordingly, the Group's management expects that the more profitable companies within the INDEXO Group will help cover the development costs of INDEXO Banka in 2026, until profitability is also achieved at the Bank level. With the current revenue and cost structure, INDEXO Banka plans to reach the break-even point before expected credit losses in December 2026.
At the same time, to implement the Bank's strategic objectives in 2026, including further growth of the Bank's loan portfolio and total revenues, and the successful launch of additional planned products such as home equity loans, consumer loan consolidation products and family accounts, the Group's management recognises that additional external capital will be required to execute these plans.
The Group's management is considering and evaluating various external capital raising options, including a public share offering by IPAS INDEXO and the issuance by INDEXO Banka of Tier 2 or additional Tier 1 capital instruments.
Based on the financial and liquidity assessments performed, and considering the overall profitability of the Group, management concludes that the going concern principle is appropriately applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
43. Events after the end of the reporting period
-
As of 25 February 2026, the number of INDEXO Banka clients increased to 54.0 thousand, the volume of deposits reached EUR 83.6 million, while the volume of loans issued reached EUR 66.7 million.
-
From 6 January 2026 to 19 January 2026, the mandatory share buyback offer for AS DelfinGroup shares made by IPAS INDEXO took place. The obligation to launch the mandatory buyback offer arose after the acquisition of 67.42% of DelfinGroup shares in the voluntary share buyback offer implemented at the end of 2025. On 26 January 2026, settlements were completed under the mandatory share buyback offer made by IPAS INDEXO, and IPAS INDEXO acquired an additional 1 862 021 AS DelfinGroup shares, representing 4.09% of the total voting share capital of DelfinGroup. As a result, IPAS INDEXO's total shareholding in AS DelfinGroup amounts to 71.52%.
-
On 6 February 2026, the Bank introduced a new type of mortgage loan to its product offering – a loan secured by residential property, which allows residents to use the value of their existing property to obtain financing for various purposes, such as home renovation, acquisition of a new property, loan consolidation or implementation of other plans.
-
By 25 February 2026, the Bank's capital has been increased by EUR 1.05 million, and the Bank has attracted EUR 0.75 million in subordinated deposits.

Reduction of indirect and total costs. We are pleased to announce a further reduction in our clients’ indirect fund costs and fund management fees. In January 2026, these were reduced by 1–2 basis points for INDEXO-managed second pillar pension plans to – from 0.47% to 0.45% for equity funds (0.391% for the plan Jauda and 0.400% for the plans Izaugsme and Konservativais), as well as by 1 basis point for all VAIRO-managed plans. In February 2026, INDEXO third pillar pension management fees were reduced by 3 basis points from 0.62% to 0.59% per annum. The reduction of indirect costs will result in better returns for our clients and higher long-term investment growth.

Independent Auditors’ Report
To the shareholders of IPAS “Indexo”
Report on the Audit of the Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements
Our Opinion on the Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements
We have audited the separate financial statements of IPAS “Indexo” (“the Company”) and accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (“the Group”) set out on pages 19 to 120 of the accompanying consolidated and separate Annual Report, which comprise:
- the consolidated and separate statements of comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2025,
- the consolidated and separate statements of financial position as at 31 December 2025,
- the consolidated and separate statements of changes in equity for the year then ended,
- the consolidated and separate statement of cash flows for the year then ended,
- notes to the consolidated and separate financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated and separate financial statements give a true and fair view of the consolidated and separate financial position of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2025, and of its consolidated and separate financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the IFRS Accounting standards as adopted by the European Union.
Basis for Opinion
In accordance with the Law on Audit Services of the Republic of Latvia we conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing adopted in the Republic of Latvia (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report.
We are independent of the Group and the Company in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards), as applicable to audits of the financial statements of public interest entities and independence requirements included in the Law on Audit Services of the Republic of Latvia that are relevant to our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements of public interest entities in the Republic of Latvia. We have also fulfilled our other professional ethics responsibilities and objectivity requirements in accordance with the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) and Law on Audit Services of the Republic of Latvia.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated and separate financial statements of the current

BDO
period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated and separate financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report:
| “Expected credit loss allowances” for “Loans and receivables from non-banks” (Group)
We refer to the financial statements: Note 2.2.12. “Financial instruments” (Material accounting policies), Note 12 “Loans and receivables from non-banks”. | |
| --- | --- |
| Key audit matter | “Loans and receivables from non-banks” totaled EUR 216 115 thousand and represent approximately 76% of the Group’s assets as at 31 December 2025 (31 December 2024: EUR 987 thousand and approximately 2%).
The Group offers unsecured loan products and secured mortgage loans issued to private individuals.
In accordance with IFRS 9, the Group calculates impairment allowance based on expected credit losses (“ECLs”). ECLs are estimated mainly based on the historical pattern of losses and changes in loan risk characteristics based on qualitative and quantitative indicators such as the probability of default (“PD”) and loss given default (“LGD”). The Group incorporates forward looking information into modelling techniques applied.
“Expected credit loss allowances” represents the Management’s best estimate of the expected credit losses related the “Loans and receivables from non-banks” as at the reporting date and requires significant judgments.
Due to the above factors, we consider the area to be associated with a significant risk of material misstatement, which requires our increased attention in the audit. As such, we determined it to be a key audit matter. |
| Our audit response | Our procedures included, among others:
• inspected the Group’s expected credit loss (“ECL”) methodology and assessed its compliance with the relevant requirements of IFRS 9,
• tested for operating effectiveness selected key controls over the approval and recording and monitoring of loans, as well as delay day calculation correctness,
• engaged IT specialists who tested the effectiveness of the overall IT environment and controls over the systems supporting the calculation of days past due and the scripts used in determining ECL,
• assessed the definition of default and the staging criteria and their consistent application by evaluating these against the requirements of IFRS 9
• assessed and challenged the forward-looking information used in the ECL model, by means of corroborating inquiries of Management and inspection of publicly available information,
• challenged LGD and PD parameters, by assessing historical default levels and by reference to historical realized losses on defaults and loan sales, |

| “Commission income from management of private and state funded pension scheme assets” recognition (Group and Company) | |
| We refer to the financial statements: Note 2.2.7. “Revenue and Expense Recognition” (Material accounting policies), Note 3 “Commission and fee income”. | |
| --- | --- |
| Key audit matter | Consolidated financial statements |
| For the year ended 31 December 2025, “Commission income from management of private and state funded pension scheme assets” totalled EUR 5 116 thousand and represents approximately 57% of the Group’s total income and other revenue (31 December 2024: EUR 4 445 thousand and approximately 87%). |
Separate financial statements
For the year ended 31 December 2025, “Commission income from management of private and state funded pension scheme assets” totalled EUR 4 877 thousand and represents approximately 86% of the Company’s total income and other revenue (31 December 2024: EUR 4 359 thousand and approximately 98%).
In accordance with IFRS 9 - Recognized interest income is determined using the effective interest rate (“EIR”) method. In determining the amount of interest income, the Group uses a model whereby automatically calculated interest amounts are manually adjusted based on the contractual interest rate to reflect the additional costs incurred in entering into the loan agreement in the EIR measurement and the resulting interest income is recognized in the income statement.
The calculation of interest income is performed using sophisticated information technology systems that process frequently updated and voluminous data.
Due to the above factors, we consider the area to be associated with a significant risk of material misstatement, which requires our increased attention in the audit. As such, we determined it to be a key audit matter. |
| Our audit response | Our procedures included, among others:
· assessed the accounting policies, management assumptions and tested inputs used in the recognition of commission income from management of private and state funded pension scheme assets,
· performed recalculation of commission income by multiplying the net assets of the plan with the percentages specified in the prospectus of the respective plan,
· performed substantive testing over completeness and accuracy of the net assets of the plans to ensure the underlying data used in calculation of the commission income is reliable,
· verified supporting documents to confirm the occurrence of the transactions and that the commission income was recorded in the correct service period, |
123
BDO
| | • verified that the Group’s and the Company’s managed state funded pension scheme investment plans and private pension plans performance fee as determined in the prospectus is nil;
• tested the completeness and accuracy of the disclosures relating to commission income from management of private and state funded pension scheme assets in the notes to the consolidated and separate financial statements. |

| “Interest income calculated using the effective interest rate” recognition (Group) | |
| --- | --- |
| We refer to the financial statements: Note 2.2.7. “Revenue and Expense Recognition” (Material accounting policies), Note 6 “Interest income calculated using the effective interest rate”. | |
| Key audit matter | For the year ended 31 December 2025, “Interest income calculated using the effective interest rate” totalled EUR 2 823 thousand and represents approximately 31% of the Group’s total income and other revenue (31 December 2024: EUR 471 thousand and approximately 9%).
In accordance with IFRS 9 - Recognized interest income is determined using the effective interest rate (“EIR”) method. In determining the amount of interest income, the Group uses a model whereby automatically calculated interest amounts are based on the contractual interest rate to reflect the additional costs incurred in entering into the lease and loan agreement in the EIR measurement and the resulting interest income is recognized in the income statement.
The calculation of interest income is performed using sophisticated information technology systems that process frequently updated and voluminous data.
Due to the above factors, we consider the area to be associated with a significant risk of material misstatement, which requires our increased attention in the audit. As such, we determined it to be a key audit matter. |
| Our audit response | Our procedures included, among others:
• assessed the accounting policies, management assumptions and tested inputs used in the recognition of interest income,
• engaged IT specialists who tested the effectiveness of the overall IT environment and controls over the systems supporting the calculation of interest income,
• tested the design and implementation of selected controls over the interest revenue recognition process, controls over the application of appropriate contractual interest rates and other contractual terms, as well as recalculated interest income to assess the correctness of the effective interest rate applied,
• performed other substantive and analytical procedures,
• tested the completeness and accuracy of the disclosures relating to interest income in the notes to the financial statements. |

| Accounting for business combinations (Group and Company)
We refer to the consolidated and separate financial statements: Note 2.2.1. “Basis of Consolidation” (Material accounting policies), Note 18 “Investments in subsidiaries”. | |
| --- | --- |
| Key audit matter | During the financial year ended 31 December 2025, the Group completed two acquisitions that have resulted in the Company acquiring controlling interest in DelfinGroup AS (“DelfinGroup”) and VAIRO IPAS (“VAIRO”).
A controlling stake in DelfinGroup was acquired through the framework of the voluntary share buyback offer including a share swap by the Company issuing new shares during 2025. A controlling stake in VAIRO was acquired through a share swap by the Company issuing new shares during 2025 and a cash payment.
We considered the audit of accounting for these acquisitions to be a key audit matter as these are significant transactions during the year which require significant management judgement regarding the allocation of the purchase price to the assets and liabilities acquired and adjustments made to align accounting policies of the newly acquired entities with those of the Group. This exercise also require management to determine the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired and to identify intangible assets acquired in the acquisition.
Due to the above factors, we consider the area to be associated with a significant risk of material misstatement, which requires our increased attention in the audit. As such, we determined it to be a key audit matter. |
| Our audit response | Our procedures included, among others:
• read the sales and purchase agreements and the circulars issued to the shareholders in relation to these acquisitions to obtain an understanding of the transactions and the key terms,
• assessed whether the appropriate accounting treatment has been applied to these transactions,
• tested the identification and fair value calculation of the acquired assets including: intangible assets acquired and liabilities by corroborating this identification based on our discussion with management and understanding of the business of DelfinGroup and VAIRO,
• reviewed the valuation methodologies used by management in the fair value calculation of acquired assets and liabilities, especially related to the loan portfolio and intangible assets of DelfinGroup and client base of VAIRO,
• assessed the reasonableness of the valuation assumptions such as discount and growth rates by comparing these assumptions to source data and market data,
• assessed the determination of the acquisition date and the validity of the date used for consolidation purposes, including the concept of “convenience date”. |

Other reporting responsibilities in accordance with the legislation of the Republic of Latvia related to other information

Based solely on the work required to be undertaken in the course of our audit, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of the separate and consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with IFRS Accounting standards as adopted by the European Union and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of separate and consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the separate and consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's and the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company and/or the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's and the Group's financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibility for the Audit of the Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate and consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be
127
BDO
expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated and separate financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated and separate financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's and the Company's internal control.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
- Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's and/or the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated and separate financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group and/or the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated and separate financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated and separate financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves a fair presentation.
- Plan and perform the group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business units within the Group as a basis for forming an opinion on the Group financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for purposes of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence and objectivity, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

BDO
Other Reporting Responsibilities and Confirmations Required by the Legislation of the Republic of Latvia and the European Union when Providing Audit Services to Public Interest Entities

We confirm that:
- our audit opinion is consistent with the additional report presented to the Audit Committee of the Group and the Company,

We also remained independent of the audited entity (the Company) and the Group in conducting the audit.
For the period to which our statutory audit relates, we have not provided any services to the Group and the Company in addition to the audit, which have not been disclosed in the Management Report or in the separate and consolidated financial statements of the Group and the Company.
The responsible sworn auditor on the audit resulting in this independent auditors' report is Raivis Jānis Jaunkalns.
Report on the Auditors' Examination of the European Single Electronic Format (ESEF) Report
In addition to our audit of the accompanying consolidated and separate financial statements, as included in the consolidated and separate Annual Report, we have also been engaged by the management of the Group to express an opinion on compliance of the consolidated and separate financial statements prepared in a format that enables uniform electronic reporting ("the ESEF Report") with the requirements of the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/815 of 17 December 2018 supplementing Directive 2004/109/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to regulatory technical standards on the specification of a single electronic reporting format (the "RTS on ESEF").
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the ESEF Report
Management is responsible for the preparation of the consolidated and separate financial statements in a format that enables uniform electronic reporting that complies with the RTS on ESEF. This responsibility includes:
- the preparation of the consolidated and separate financial statements in the applicable xHTML format,
- the selection and application of appropriate iXBRL tags, using judgment where necessary,
- ensuring consistency between digitalized information and the consolidated financial statements presented in human-readable format; and
- the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the application of the RTS on ESEF.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process.
Auditors' Responsibility for the Examination of the ESEF Report
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on whether the ESEF report complies, in all material respects, with the RTS on ESEF, based on the evidence we have obtained. We conducted our
129
BDO
reasonable assurance engagement in accordance with International Standard on Assurance Engagements 3000 (Revised), Assurance Engagements Other than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information (ISAE 3000) issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board.
A reasonable assurance engagement in accordance with ISAE 3000 involves performing procedures to obtain evidence about compliance with the RTS on ESEF. The nature, timing and extent of procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material departures from the requirements of set out in the RTS on ESEF, whether due to fraud or error.
Our procedures included, among other things:
- obtaining an understanding of the tagging process,
- tracing the tagged data to the consolidated financial statements of the Group presented in human-readable format,
- evaluating the completeness of the Group's tagging of the consolidated financial statements,
- evaluating the appropriateness of the Group's use of iXBRL elements selected from the ESEF taxonomy and creation of extension elements where no suitable element in the ESEF taxonomy has been identified,
- evaluating the use of anchoring in relation to the extension elements; and
- evaluating the appropriateness of the format of the consolidated and separate financial statements.
