The Company will publish any supplement to this Prospectus in the same manner as this Prospectus is published. The Final Terms of each Series of Bonds will be published on the website of Nasdaq Riga and on the Company's website no later than the commencement of the relevant Subscription Period.
1.10. MIFID II Product Governance
The Issuer, acting as the manufacturer of the Bonds for the purposes of Directive 2014/65/EU (MiFID II), is required to undertake a product approval process in order to identify the appropriate target market for the Bonds. For these purposes only, the Issuer has determined that the target market comprises retail clients, professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II.
The Issuer has further concluded that all channels for distribution of the Bonds to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. In respect of retail clients, distribution should be conducted only through appropriate channels, including investment advice, portfolio management or non-advised sales, and in each case subject to the distributor's obligations relating to suitability and/or appropriateness under MiFID II, as applicable.
Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Bonds should take into account the Issuer's target market determination. However, any distributor subject to MiFID II remains responsible for carrying out its own target market assessment in respect of the Bonds (whether by adopting or refining the Issuer's assessment) and for identifying suitable distribution channels.
For the avoidance of doubt, the target market determination does not constitute an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II and should not be regarded as a recommendation to any investor, or category of investors, to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise deal in the Bonds.
1.11. Interest of Natural and Legal Persons Involved in the Offering
So far as the Issuer is aware, no person involved in the offering of the Bonds has an interest material to the offering, save as disclosed below.
The Issuer may appoint one or more financial intermediaries (including investment firms, credit institutions) acting as issuing agents or placement agents (together, the "Agents") in connection with the offering and placement of the Bonds. Such Agents may receive fees, commissions and/or other remuneration from the Issuer in connection with their services, which may include placement fees calculated as a percentage of the aggregate nominal amount of the Bonds placed or allocated to investors referred by such Agents.
As a result of the remuneration received, such Agents may have a financial interest in the successful placement of the Bonds, which may give rise to potential conflicts of interest. Investors should take this into account when considering any advice received from such persons.
Information on the issuing agent and placement agents (if any) will be specified in the Final Terms of the respective Series of Bonds.

2.4. Issue Date, Issue Price and Yield
The Issue Date of each Series will be specified in the Final Terms.
The Bonds may be issued at an Issue Price equal to, above or below their Nominal Value (at par, at a premium or at a discount). The Issue Price of each Series of Bonds will be specified in the applicable Final Terms and will be expressed as a percentage of the Nominal Value of the Bond.
The yield of each Series will be specified in the Final Terms and will be calculated as of the relevant Issue Date on an annual basis using the relevant Issue Price. It is not an indication of future yield.
2.5. Form and Registration of Bonds
The Bonds are issued and maintained in dematerialised, uncertificated book-entry form. Physical certificates will not be issued.
The Bonds will be registered within the securities settlement system governed by Latvian law maintained by Nasdaq CSD. The Bonds will be transferable in accordance with the rules and procedures of Nasdaq CSD and the applicable rules of the Nasdaq Riga Stock Exchange. The Issuer organises the deletion of the Bonds from Nasdaq CSD upon their redemption.
Bondholders may hold Bonds through Nasdaq CSD participants participating in the Latvian securities settlement system. Rights of Bondholders with respect to the Bonds are exercised through the account-managing institutions that maintain Bondholders' securities accounts.
The Bonds will be issued in one or more separate Series under the Programme. The ISIN code of each Series will be specified in the relevant Final Terms. Each Series of Bonds will be fungible with other Bonds of the same Series but will not be fungible with Bonds of a different Series.
2.6. Ranking and Subordination
Each Bond constitutes a direct, unsecured, unguaranteed and subordinated debt obligation of the Issuer, intended to qualify as a Tier 2 capital instrument within the meaning of Article 63 of the Capital Requirements Regulation, as supplemented by applicable EU technical standards and guidelines of the European Banking Authority (EBA) on own funds instruments.
In the event of the voluntary or involuntary liquidation or bankruptcy of the Issuer, the rights of Bondholders to payments on or in respect of the Bonds shall rank:
i. Junior to: all present or future (A) unsubordinated and unsecured claims of creditors of the Issuer, and (B) any present or future subordinated obligations of the Issuer that rank, or are expressed to rank, senior to the Bonds;
ii. Pari passu: with all other present or future Tier 2 capital instruments of the Issuer and any other subordinated claims that rank, or are expressed to rank, equally with the Bonds;
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
iii. (iii) Senior to: all present or future claims of holders of Additional Tier 1 instruments of the Issuer and, in each case, claims of holders of all classes of share capital of the Issuer.
The subordination of the Bonds means that, in the liquidation or bankruptcy of the Issuer, claims arising from the Bonds shall rank equally with other claims of the same rank and shall be satisfied only after the full satisfaction of all unsubordinated recognised claims against the Issuer. Any right of set-off by a Bondholder against the Issuer in respect of amounts due under the Bonds is excluded.
Furthermore, any amounts outstanding under the Bonds may be subject to reduction or conversion into equity instruments pursuant to the exercise of Bail-in and other Resolution Powers by the Resolution Authority (see Section 2.13 (Bail-in Powers) and Risk Factors 3.5.2).
2.7. Currency and Denomination

2.8. Interest Rate and Interest Payment
The Bonds bear a fixed annual interest rate as specified in the relevant Final Terms. Interest accrues from and including the Issue Date of each Series to (but excluding) the Maturity date or Early Redemption Date, whichever occurs first, and is payable semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date specified in the relevant Final Terms. Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of 12 months of 30 days each (30/360 day count convention).
If an Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the next day which is a Business Day (Following Business Day Convention). No additional interest shall accrue in respect of any such postponement or advancement.
Interest on the Bonds shall be paid through Nasdaq CSD in accordance with the applicable rules of Nasdaq CSD. The Bondholders entitled to receive interest on the Bonds shall be determined as of the close of business on the fifth Business Day prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date (Record Date).
All interest payments are subject to applicable withholding taxes under Latvian tax law. See Section 11 (Taxation) for further details.
2.9. Maturity and Redemption
Unless previously redeemed or purchased and cancelled, the Bonds of each Series will be redeemed at their nominal value (100% of par) on the Maturity Date specified in the relevant Final Terms, which will be the date falling 10 (ten) years from the Issue Date of that Series. The Bonds do not provide for any instalment or amortising redemption prior to the Maturity Date.
Payment due on Final Redemption of the Bonds (Final Redemption amount) will be made to the persons who were registered as the Bondholders at the close of business on the Business Day preceding the due date for such payment. Payment of amounts due on the Final Redemption of the
16
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
Bonds will be made simultaneously with deletion of the Bonds. If the due date for payment of the Final Redemption amount of the Bonds is not a Business Day, the payment of the Final Redemption amount will be postponed to the next following Business Day and no further payment shall be due in respect of such delay save in the event that there is a subsequent failure to pay in accordance with respective Final Terms.
If the Company fails to transfer Final Redemption amount on the relevant due date, interest shall accrue on the overdue amount from (and including) the due date until the date of actual payment at the same rate as the interest rate applicable to the Bonds, as specified in the Final Terms.
2.10. Call Option (Optional Redemption)

Upon the occurrence of a Capital Disqualification Event (being an event as a result of which the Bonds cease, or are likely to cease, in whole or in part, to qualify as Tier 2 capital under the CRR or applicable law), the Issuer may, at its option, redeem all (but not some only) of the outstanding Bonds at their nominal value together with accrued interest, at any time (Early Redemption Date, Call Date), subject to the prior permission of the Bank of Latvia.
Upon the occurrence of a Tax Event, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem all (but not some only) of the outstanding Bonds at their nominal value together with accrued interest, at any time (Early Redemption Date, Call Date), subject to the prior permission of the Bank of Latvia. Tax Event means any change in, or amendment to, the laws or regulations of the Republic of Latvia, or any change in the application or official interpretation thereof, becoming effective on or after the Issue Date, which results in, and following confirmation to the satisfaction of the Bank of Latvia, the Issuer being subject to a materially adverse tax consequence in respect of the Bonds or any payments thereunder, which was not reasonably foreseeable as at the Issue Date.
The Issuer shall notify the Bondholders of any early redemption by publication on the website of Nasdaq Riga and on the website of the Issuer not less than 30 calendar days prior to the Early Redemption Date.

3. RISK FACTORS
3.1. Introduction to Risk Factors
Prospective investors should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all other information contained in this Prospectus, before making an investment decision. The risks described below are those which the Company's Management Board currently considers to be material as of the date of this Prospectus. The risks are categorised as follows:
- Section 3.2: Risks related to the business and operations of the Company;
- Section 3.3: Legal and regulatory risks;
- Section 3.4: Macroeconomic and geopolitical risks; and
- Section 3.5: Risks related to the Bonds and the securities market.
Within each category, the risks are presented in order of estimated materiality, taking into account the probability of occurrence and the expected magnitude of their negative impact on the Issuer and/or the Bondholders. This ordering is the Company's assessment as of the date of this Prospectus and may change over time. The risks described below are not exhaustive. Additional risks not currently known to the Company, or that the Company currently considers immaterial, may also impair its operations and adversely affect the value of the Bonds. An investment in the Bonds involves a significant degree of risk and may not be appropriate for all investors. Investors may lose all or part of their investment.
3.2. Risks Related to the Business and Operations of the Company
3.2.1. Early-Stage Operation, Accumulated Losses and Dependence on Capital Support
AS INDEXO Banka is a newly established credit institution. The Company received its banking license on 16 May 2024 and commenced banking operations on 28 August 2024. It completed its first full year of operations in 2025. At the end of 2025, the Bank's customer 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 before expected credit losses exceeded EUR 55.2 million (EUR 1.1 million at the end of 2024).
Considering that the Bank's operations have started relatively recently, its income is not yet sufficient to cover all operating expenses. At the same time, INDEXO Bank continues to make significant investments in IT infrastructure to enhance and develop an increasing range of its services and products. Therefore, for the financial year ended 31 December 2025, the Company recorded a net loss of EUR 9,245 thousand (2024: EUR 6,163 thousand). The accumulated deficit as of 31 December 2025 amounted to EUR 18,078 thousand.
During 2025, IPAS INDEXO increased the Bank's capital by EUR 10 million, and the Bank additionally raised EUR 1.8 million in subordinated borrowings. At the end of 2025, the Bank's capital adequacy ratio stood at 21.26%, compared to 54.17% in 2024, exceeding the regulatory guideline recommendation of 20%. The liquidity coverage ratio at the end of the reporting period was 529.67%, compared to 1 273.49% in 2024, which was significantly above regulatory requirement.
In January 2026, the INDEXO Group successfully completed the acquisition of AS DelfinGroup, with
22
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
IPAS INDEXO increasing its ownership to 71.52%. Given DelfinGroup's stable and highly profitable operations, the transaction resulted in the INDEXO Group becoming profitable from the first day following the business combination. In April 2026, IPAS INDEXO acquired additional shares in AS DelfinGroup through an over-the-counter transaction, increasing its shareholding in the company's share capital to 72.07%. The Bank's management expects that the profit generating INDEXO Group companies will help to cover INDEXO Bank's development expenses in 2026, until INDEXO Bank itself reaches positive profitability. With the current revenue and expense structure, INDEXO Bank standalone plans to reach the break-even point (before expected credit losses) in December 2026.
At the same time, the Management of the Bank recognises that additional external capital will be required to achieve the Bank's strategic targets in 2026 – continuing to expand the Bank's loan portfolio and overall income base, and to successfully introduce additional planned products, including home equity loans, consumer loan consolidation products, family accounts and SME services.
The ability of IPAS INDEXO to continue supporting INDEXO Banka through capital injections depends on IPAS INDEXO's own financial resources, including the profitability of its pension management business, the contribution of AS DelfinGroup (majority-owned since January 2026) to group revenues, and its ability to raise additional equity from its shareholders. If IPAS INDEXO is unable to provide capital support to INDEXO Banka in the amounts and on the timescales required, INDEXO Banka may not be able to maintain its regulatory capital requirements, which could result in supervisory intervention, restrictions on business activities, or, in extreme cases, revocation of its banking licence. Any such event would materially adversely affect INDEXO Banka's ability to repay the Bonds.
3.2.2. Credit Risk – Rapid Loan Portfolio Growth and Limited Historical Data
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss arising from a borrower failing to meet its contractual payment obligations. As at 31 December 2025, the Company's gross loan portfolio amounted to EUR 56,149 thousand, consisting of consumer loans (EUR 32,505 thousand, 57.9%), mortgage loans (EUR 23,599 thousand, 42.0%) and current account overdrafts (EUR 45 thousand, 0.1%). The loan portfolio grew from EUR 1.1 million to EUR 54.9 million (net) during 2025, representing approximately 50-fold growth in twelve months.
The Company uses automated credit scoring models based on external data sources - primarily the Creditinformation Bureau and benchmark data published by the European Banking Authority (EBA Risk Dashboard) - because it does not yet have sufficient internal historical loan performance data to calibrate proprietary PD (probability of default) and LGD (loss given default) models. This reliance on external benchmarks creates model risk: the actual default rates and loss severities in the Company's specific loan portfolio may differ materially from those assumed in its ECL models. As the portfolio ages and macroeconomic conditions change, actual credit losses could be significantly higher than currently provisioned.
Because the Company has less than 18 months of loan performance history, these models are not yet calibrated on the Company's own portfolio data. The models may systematically overestimate or underestimate default rates or loss severities for the Company's specific customer segment, leading to inappropriate credit decisions, mispriced loans, or under-provisioned credit losses. The Company plans to replace external benchmark parameters with proprietary data during 2026 as the portfolio matures.
The Company's ECL provision as of 31 December 2025 was EUR 1,220 thousand (provision coverage ratio of 2.17% of gross loans). Given the portfolio's extremely rapid growth and early vintage,
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
the ECL provision may prove insufficient if economic conditions deteriorate or borrower behaviour differs from external benchmarks. Significant credit losses would adversely affect the Company's financial results, capital ratios, and ability to service its obligations under the Bonds.
3.2.3. Concentration Risk – Single Market, Single Product Category
The Company's loan portfolio is currently concentrated exclusively in the Latvian retail market and in two product types: consumer loans (unsecured personal loans) and residential mortgage loans. The Company has no corporate, SME or foreign lending and no geographic diversification outside Latvia. This concentration means that adverse developments in the Latvian economy - such as a significant rise in unemployment, a sharp decline in residential property values, or a widespread deterioration in household financial health - could cause simultaneous stress across both the consumer and mortgage portfolios, resulting in credit losses that cannot be offset by high diversification at exposure and customer level.
Furthermore, the deposit base is concentrated in individual retail customers in Latvia, predominantly attracted through the mobile banking application and the INDEXO brand. This creates a risk that a negative perception event (such as a technology failure, a regulatory sanction, or adverse media coverage) could trigger a rapid outflow of deposits. While the Company's LCR of 529.67% as at 31 December 2025 provides a substantial liquidity cushion, this buffer may be consumed quickly in a stress scenario given the largely short-term, on-demand nature of its liabilities.
3.2.4. Liquidity Risk and Deposit Maturity Mismatch
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will be unable to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. As of 31 December 2025, the Company's deposit base of EUR 73,786 thousand comprised: current accounts (EUR 13,667 thousand, 18%), savings accounts (EUR 33,123 thousand, 45%) and term deposits (EUR 26,996 thousand, 37%). Approximately 63% of the deposit base was contractually withdrawable on demand or at short notice.
In contrast, the loan portfolio has a weighted average remaining maturity of approximately 4.1 years (consumer loans) and 24.3 years (mortgage loans). This structural maturity mismatch is inherent to retail banking but creates sensitivity to sudden deposit outflows. The Company holds a portfolio of highly liquid assets (primarily balances at the Bank of Latvia and government bonds) to mitigate this risk. The Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) of 529.67% substantially exceeded the regulatory minimum of 100% as of 31 December 2025, providing significant buffer. However, if the Company were to experience large-scale deposit withdrawals in a period of market stress, it might be forced to sell assets at adverse prices, reducing its ability to meet obligations.
3.2.5. Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk of a reduction in the Company's net interest income (NII) or in the economic value of its equity (EVE) resulting from adverse movements in interest rates. The Company's interest rate exposure arises from the repricing mismatch between assets and liabilities. Assets mainly consist of fixed-rate consumer loans (at an average rate of 12.49% p.a. with weighted average maturity of 4.1 years) and variable-rate mortgage loans (EURIBOR-based). Liabilities consist of non-maturing deposits and fixed rate term deposits repriced on relatively short timescales. At the end of 2025 weighted average maturity of term deposits were 1.5 years.
24
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
As of 31 December 2025, the interest rate sensitivity analysis indicates: a parallel upward shift of 200 basis points in all EUR interest rates would increase net interest income over 12 months by approximately EUR 99 thousand; a parallel downward shift of 200 basis points would reduce net interest income by approximately EUR 149 thousand. The Company's fixed-rate consumer loan portfolio creates sensitivity to rising rates on the funding side, while falling rates would reduce income from variable-rate mortgage assets and liquid asset holdings.
3.2.6. Operational and IT Risk
INDEXO Banka operates as a fully digital bank with no physical branch network. All customer-facing services - account opening, payments, lending, savings - are delivered exclusively through the INDEXO mobile application. The Company is consequently highly dependent on the reliability, security and continuous availability of its IT systems and third-party service providers. The core banking platform is provided by Mambu B.V. (Netherlands) under a cloud-based SaaS agreement. Payments infrastructure uses Mambu Payments, integrated with SEPA Instant Credit Transfers and TARGET2.
A prolonged outage of the core banking platform, the mobile application, payment infrastructure or key third-party services could prevent customers from accessing their accounts and making payments, leading to reputational damage, regulatory sanctions, customer attrition and potential liability claims. Cybersecurity risks - including data breaches, ransomware attacks, distributed denial of service attacks, and fraud - are heightened in the digital banking sector and in the current geopolitical environment. Total IT investment to date has reached EUR 7.5 million, primarily in the mobile banking application and core banking system.
The Company maintains a business continuity plan and disaster recovery procedures but cannot guarantee that these will be sufficient to prevent material disruption in all scenarios. Third-party service provider failures, particularly Mambu, could be outside the Company's control and ability to remedy quickly.
3.2.7. Regulatory Capital Adequacy and Risk of Capital Breach
The Company is subject to minimum regulatory capital requirements under the CRR, CRD IV and applicable Latvian banking law. As at 31 December 2025, the Company's capital ratios were: CET1 ratio: 17.06%; Tier 1 ratio: 17.06%; Total Capital Ratio: 21.26%.
As the loan portfolio grows, risk-weighted assets (RWA) will increase rapidly, while the Company's CET1 capital base is being eroded by ongoing net losses. Without further capital injections, the capital ratios are projected to decline toward minimum requirements over the 12–18 months following the date of this Prospectus. If minimum capital ratios are breached, the Company would be required to take immediate corrective action (including suspending all discretionary distributions), and the supervisory authority could impose additional restrictions or measures. In the most severe scenario, the Company could be subject to resolution proceedings, which could result in the write-down or conversion of the Bonds.
3.3. Legal and Regulatory Risks
3.3.1. Changes in Applicable Law and Regulation
25
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
The Company operates in a heavily regulated environment and is subject to extensive EU and Latvian banking legislation, including the CRR, CRD IV, BRRD, the Deposit Guarantee Schemes Directive, the Payment Services Directive 2, the EU anti-money laundering package, the Consumer Credit Directive, General Data Protection Regulation, applicable national laws and Bank of Latvia regulations and guidelines. Any changes to applicable law or regulation - including increases in capital requirements, changes to deposit guarantee thresholds, tightening of consumer lending regulations, or new AML/CFT/CPF and sanctions requirements - could require significant operational or structural changes, increase the Company's compliance costs, restrict its product offerings, or adversely affect its profitability.
3.3.2. Supervisory and Regulatory Risk
AS INDEXO Banka is licensed and regulated by the Bank of Latvia as the national competent authority, and indirectly by the European Central Bank (ECB) as part of the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM). The Bank of Latvia conducts regular supervisory reviews (Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process, SREP) and may impose additional capital requirements (Pillar 2 requirements and Pillar 2 guidance) above the minimum CRR requirements. It may also restrict the Company's activities, require changes to its business model, impose fines, or, in extreme cases, revoke the Company's banking licence.
The Company, as a newly licensed institution, is subject to intensified supervisory attention during its early years of operation. Pursuant to the Law on Credit Institutions, Regulation (EU) No. 575/2013 and the outcomes of the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP), the Bank of Latvia may impose additional capital requirements or other prudential restrictions on INDEXO Banka, which could adversely affect the Company's growth and financial results.
Furthermore, prior regulatory approval of the Bank of Latvia is required for the optional early redemption of the Bonds at the Call Date. There is no assurance that such approval will be granted. If regulatory approval is not obtained, the Issuer will not be able to exercise the Call Option even if it would otherwise be in investors' interests.
3.3.3. AML/CFT/CPF and Sanctions Risk
Latvia's financial sector has previously been subject to heightened international scrutiny in the area of anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism and proliferation (AML/CFT/CPF). However, according to the most recent international assessment conducted by MONEYVAL, Latvia has substantially strengthened its AML/CFT/CPF framework and has been recognised as a jurisdiction with an efficient, transparent and resilient financial system.
Notwithstanding the significant progress achieved and the strengthened regulatory and institutional framework, AML/CFT/CPF and sanctions related risks cannot be entirely eliminated. INDEXO Banka is fully subject to the requirements of AML/CFT/CPF laws and regulations of the European Union and the Republic of Latvia, as well as to international sanctions regimes, including those imposed by the European Union, the United Nations and the United States of America. This underscores the ongoing need to develop and maintain an effective, proportionate and risk-based AML/CFT/CPF system.
The Bank has implemented an internal control system designed to mitigate money laundering, terrorist financing, proliferation financing and sanctions risks, including customer due diligence (KYC) procedures, transaction monitoring mechanisms, sanctions screening processes and internal
26
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
governance arrangements. Nevertheless, deficiencies in AML/CFT/CPF controls - whether arising from human error, limitations or failures of information technology systems, incomplete or inaccurate data, or deliberate attempts by customers or third parties to circumvent applicable laws and regulations - may result in INDEXO Banka being used for money laundering, terrorist or proliferation financing, or the circumvention of sanctions. Such events could expose INDEXO Banka to supervisory investigations, administrative or criminal penalties, significant financial sanctions, operational restrictions and reputational damage.
In view of the above, although INDEXO Banka operates within an improved and internationally positively assessed AML/CFT/CPF framework, there can be no assurance that systemic risks, regulatory changes or individual control weaknesses will not adversely affect its future operations, financial position or reputation.
3.3.4. Legal Proceedings Risk
As of the date of this Prospectus, the Company is not party to any legal, arbitration or administrative proceedings that are material or likely to have a material impact on its financial condition. The Company cannot guarantee that it will not become subject to legal proceedings in the future, including proceedings by customers, regulators, employees or third parties.
3.4. Macroeconomic and Geopolitical Risks
3.4.1. Latvian and Baltic Macroeconomic Conditions
AS INDEXO Banka derives all of its revenues from Latvian residents it is entirely dependent on the performance of the Latvian economy. Latvia is a small, open economy of approximately 1.85 million people with a GDP of approximately EUR 43 billion (2025). The Latvian economy grew by approximately 2.1% in real terms in 2025 (preliminary estimate). Unemployment at the end of 2025 was approximately 5.0%. A material deterioration in Latvian economic conditions - triggered by, for example, a global recession, a sharp rise in energy prices, a decline in external demand for Latvian exports, a collapse in real estate prices, or a rapid increase in unemployment - could reduce demand for credit, increase credit losses in the Company's loan portfolio, reduce deposit inflows, and adversely affect the Company's revenues and ability to service the Bonds.
Latvia's open economy also exposes it to trade policy risks, including the potential impact of US tariffs on European export markets. Furthermore, the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine and broader geopolitical instability in the region - including the risk of escalation involving Iran or other actors - create macroeconomic uncertainty, may disrupt energy markets and investor confidence, and could adversely affect economic conditions in Latvia and across the eurozone.
Latvia's household mortgage debt remains among the lowest in the EU as a proportion of GDP - at approximately 13% of GDP compared to a eurozone average of 35% - reflecting a decade of household deleveraging following the 2008 financial crisis. However, rising household borrowing since 2024 and a gradually expanding credit portfolio increase the sensitivity of the loan book to adverse economic developments.
3.4.2. Geopolitical Risks
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
Latvia shares a border with Russia and Belarus and is geographically proximate to the ongoing armed conflict in Ukraine, which began with Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022. The conflict has continued throughout 2024 and 2025 with no clear resolution timeline. Escalation of the conflict - including any direct military threat to NATO member states including Latvia - could trigger emergency measures, capital controls, sanctions extensions, or infrastructure disruptions that could materially adversely affect the Latvian economy, financial system, and INDEXO Banka's operations.
Latvia has significantly increased its defence spending and hosts a multinational battlegroup under NATO Enhanced Forward Presence. While the Company believes NATO membership substantially reduces the risk of direct military attack, increased military spending may crowd out other public investment, affect business confidence and contribute to fiscal pressures.
The energy dependence of the Baltic states has also been materially reduced through the disconnection from the BRELL power ring (Belarus, Russia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania grid system) and synchronisation with the European continental power grid, completed in 2025, which reduces, but does not eliminate, energy supply risks.
3.4.3. Inflation and ECB Monetary Policy
Latvia is a Eurozone member and the Company's interest rate environment is determined by ECB monetary policy. Following a period of elevated inflation in 2022-2023 and subsequent ECB rate hikes, which brought the deposit facility rate to a peak of 4.00%, the ECB commenced a rate-cutting cycle in June 2024. By the end of 2025, the deposit facility rate had been reduced to 2.00% across eight consecutive cuts, and the ECB has held rates at this level since June 2025. The current rate environment is broadly considered neutral - neither restrictive nor stimulative.
Looking ahead, the interest rate outlook has become more uncertain. While the ECB's December 2025 projections pointed to inflation stabilising near the 2% medium-term target, new inflationary pressures have emerged in early 2026, primarily driven by rising energy prices linked to the escalating conflict in the Middle East. At its March 2026 meeting, the ECB revised its 2026 inflation forecast upward to 2.6% and downgraded its growth outlook, while keeping rates unchanged.
The Company's net interest margin benefits from the current rate environment. A rapid further decline in interest rates could compress net interest margins, particularly on the mortgage portfolio (EURIBOR-linked). Conversely, prolonged elevated rates could increase defaults in the consumer loan portfolio. ECB policy decisions are outside the control of the Company and create ongoing interest rate risk.
3.4.4. Real Estate Market Risk
Approximately 42% of the Company's gross loan portfolio (EUR 23.6 million) as at 31 December 2025 consists of mortgage loans secured by residential real estate in Latvia. The value of these assets - and consequently the Company's loss given default on mortgage loans - is directly linked to Latvian residential real estate prices. Latvia's residential property market has been buoyant in 2023-2025, supported by low housing supply and increasing household incomes, but prices in Riga and other major centres are at historically high levels relative to household incomes. A significant correction in Latvian residential property prices would increase LGD on the mortgage portfolio and could result in credit losses materially in excess of current ECL provisions.

3.5. Risks Related to the Bonds
3.5.1. Subordination – Bondholders Rank Behind All Unsubordinated Creditors
The Bonds are subordinated obligations of the Issuer. In the event of the insolvency, liquidation or bankruptcy of the Issuer, the claims of Bondholders will rank junior to the claims of all unsubordinated creditors of the Issuer, including depositors, trade creditors, and senior secured or unsecured creditors, in each case in accordance with applicable laws. As a result of such subordination, in the event that the Issuer's assets are insufficient to satisfy all unsubordinated claims in full, Bondholders may receive no payment at all in respect of the Bonds. Even where some recovery is available, Bondholders may recover only a limited portion of their investment. The subordinated nature of the Bonds exposes investors to a higher risk of loss than unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer and represents a material credit risk that prospective investors should carefully consider.
3.5.2. Bail-in Risk – Bonds May Be Written Down or Converted into Equity
As described in Section 2.13, the Bonds are subject to the Bail-in Powers of the Resolution Authority. If the Issuer meets the conditions for resolution under the BRRD (as implemented in Latvian law), the Resolution Authority may, without the consent of the Bondholders, reduce the outstanding principal amount of the Bonds (including to zero), convert all or part of the Bonds into equity instruments (shares) of the Issuer or another entity, and/or make other amendments to the Terms of the Bonds necessary to give effect to the exercise of such powers. The exercise of Bail-in Powers is likely to result in material losses or a total loss for Bondholders. Importantly, the conditions for resolution may be satisfied before the Issuer becomes insolvent under national insolvency law, meaning that Bondholders may suffer losses that would not have occurred in a standard insolvency proceeding.
3.5.3. No Guarantee and No Deposit Protection
The Bonds are unsecured obligations of the Issuer only. They are not guaranteed by IPAS INDEXO or any other entity. The Bonds do not constitute deposits and are not protected by the Latvian Deposit Guarantee Fund or any other deposit protection or investor compensation scheme. If the Issuer becomes insolvent, investors in the Bonds will not receive any compensation from a guarantee scheme.
3.5.4. Liquidity Risk – Limited Secondary Market
Although the Issuer intends to apply for listing of the Bonds on the Baltic Bond List of Nasdaq Riga, there can be no assurance that a liquid secondary market for the Bonds will develop or, if it does, that it will be maintained throughout the life of the Bonds. The total size of the Programme (EUR 10 million) is relatively small by Baltic capital market standards, and there is no commitment by the Issuer, any placement agent, or any other person to make a market in the Bonds or to provide liquidity support.
Baltic bond markets - particularly for unrated, smaller issues by credit institutions in early stages of development - can be illiquid. Accordingly, Bondholders who wish to sell their Bonds prior to maturity may be unable to do so or may only be able to do so at a price below the price paid (or otherwise at a price that is not acceptable to them). Price discovery may be limited, and bid-ask spreads in the secondary market may be wide. Prospective investors should therefore be prepared to hold the Bonds until maturity and should only invest funds they can afford to have committed for the full 10-year term.
3.5.5. Interest Rate Risk for Bondholders – Fixed Rate
29
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
The Bonds bear a fixed interest rate per annum throughout their life. The market value of the Bonds in the secondary market will fluctuate with changes in prevailing market interest rates and credit spreads. If market interest rates or required credit spreads for comparable instruments increase materially, the market price of the Bonds will fall below their nominal value. An investor who sells the Bonds in the secondary market before maturity may incur a capital loss. Conversely, if interest rates decline, the market price of the Bonds may rise above par, but investors who hold the Bonds to maturity will receive only the nominal value regardless of prevailing market rates.
3.5.6. No Credit Rating
The Bonds have not been assigned a credit rating by Moody's, S&P Global Ratings, Fitch Ratings, or any other credit rating agency. The Issuer itself does not have a public credit rating. The absence of an external credit rating makes independent assessment of the credit quality of the Bonds and the Issuer more difficult for investors. Prospective investors should therefore make their own assessment of the Issuer's creditworthiness and the risks described in this Prospectus.
3.5.7. Early Redemption Risk – Call Option Benefits Issuer
The Bonds include a Call Option (Optional Redemption) provision, in favour of the Issuer, giving the Issuer a right to redeem the Bonds prior to their scheduled maturity, after five (5) years from the Issue Date, subject to prior regulatory approval, and at any time upon the occurrence of a Tax Event or a Capital Disqualification Event, subject to prior regulatory approval, as set out in this Prospectus.
If the Issuer exercises the Call Option, investors will receive principal repayment earlier than the Maturity Date and will face reinvestment risk: they may only be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in instruments with lower yields than the yield provided by the Bonds. Conversely, if market conditions or regulatory constraints prevent the Issuer from exercising the Call Option (for example, if regulatory approval is withheld), investors will continue to hold the Bonds but will not receive early repayment, even if they would prefer to exit their investment.
There is no investor put option. Bondholders have no right to require early redemption of the Bonds at any time prior to the Maturity Date.
3.5.8. Tax Risk
Tax laws applicable to the Bonds may change during the life of the Bonds. Under current Latvian law, interest income on the Bonds paid to Latvian resident individual investors is subject to capital gains tax withheld at source by the Issuer. Changes in Latvian tax law, double taxation treaties, or applicable EU tax directives could increase the tax burden on Bondholders, reduce the after-tax return on the Bonds, or impose additional reporting or withholding obligations. The Company will not gross up payments to Bondholders in respect of any taxes withheld.

The Issuer reserves the right to extend or shorten the Subscription Period, provided that the Subscription Period does not exceed the validity period of this Prospectus. Any extension or shortening of the Subscription Period will be communicated on the website of Nasdaq Riga (https://nasdaqbaltic.com/) and on the Company's website (https://indexo.lv/en/for-investors/) no later than the Business Day preceding the new end date.
4.4. Subscription Procedure
To subscribe for the Bonds, an investor, during the Subscription Period, must submit a subscription order (subscription undertaking) to the account-managing institution (a bank or investment firm) that holds the investor's securities account and is a participant of Nasdaq CSD Latvian securities settlement system or have relevant arrangements with a participant of Nasdaq CSD Latvian securities settlement system. The investor may use any method that that investor's account-managing institution offers to submit the subscription order (e.g., physically at the client service venue of the account operator, via internet bank or by other means). An investor may submit a subscription order either personally or through a representative whom the investor has authorised to submit the subscription order.
Subscription orders must specify the number of Bonds to be subscribed for. The total amount of the Bonds to be acquired and indicated in each subscription order shall be for at least Minimum Investment Amount as specified in the Final Terms.
By placing the subscription order, each investor makes a binding instruction for depositing the Bonds in a securities account maintained in its name and opened with the account-managing institution of their choice which is licensed to provide such services.
A subscription order is deemed submitted from the moment Nasdaq Riga receives a duly completed transaction instruction from the financial institution managing an investor's securities account.
By submitting a subscription order, the investor: (i) authorises the account-managing institution to block the full subscription amount (number of Bonds subscribed x Issue Price x Nominal Value of the Bond) on the investor's current account with immediate effect; (ii) confirms that the investor has read this Prospectus and the Final Terms and understands the risks of investing in the Bonds; and (iii)
32
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
confirms that the investor is not a person subject to any restrictions on subscribing for the Bonds (including under applicable laws) and that the subscription is made in compliance with all applicable laws.
By submitting the subscription order the investor authorizes Nasdaq Riga, Nasdaq CSD, the account-managing institution of the investor and the Issuer to process, forward and exchange information about the investor and the contents of respective investor's subscription order during and after the Subscription Period. The information so exchanged may contain information about investor's (natural person) name, surname date of birth, country of residence; for legal person: legal name, registration number, registered address and country of incorporation, as well as other relevant information the Issuer may reasonably request.
An investor shall ensure that all information contained in the subscription order is correct, complete and legible. The Issuer reserves the right to reject any subscription order that is incomplete, incorrect, unclear or ineligible or that has not been supported by the necessary information on the investor requested by the Issuer. Any consequences arising from a subscription order for the Bonds being incorrectly completed or not completed in accordance with the required instructions, including failure to provide the requested information, shall be borne by the investor.
The procedure for submission of subscription orders may be further specified in the Final Terms if additional information on the subscription process is required.
Subscription Orders for the Bonds of a given Series may be withdrawn (and new orders submitted) during the Subscription Period of such Series, in accordance with the procedures of the relevant account-managing institution and subject to the time limitations and cut-off times set forth by such account-managing institution. After the end of the Subscription Period, subscription orders are irrevocable.
An investor will be liable for the payment of all fees and costs charged by the account-managing institution in connection with the submission, withdrawal or amendment of the subscription order.
Furthermore, an investor may withdraw a subscription for the Bonds after the start of the Subscription Period if a supplement to this Prospectus is published in respect of a significant new factor, material mistake or material inaccuracy occurring before the allocation of the Bonds, of which the Issuer became aware before the allocation. An investor who has subscribed for the Bonds before the publication of such supplement may withdraw the subscription order within 3 (three) Business Days from the date of publication of the supplement.
4.5. Payment
Upon submission of a subscription order, the account-managing institution maintaining the investor's cash account linked to the investor's securities account shall have a right to block the full subscription amount on such cash account. The blocked funds shall remain unavailable until payment for the allotted Bonds has been completed or until the funds are released in accordance with this Base Prospectus. The amount to be blocked shall equal the number of Bonds subscribed multiplied by the Issue Price multiplied by the Nominal Value of Bond. A subscription order may only be submitted if sufficient funds are available on the relevant cash account. Where the funds blocked are insufficient, the subscription order shall be invalid to the extent of such insufficiency.
If the offering of the Bonds (or any part thereof) is cancelled in accordance with the terms and conditions described in this Prospectus, if, as a result of the allocation, the investor does not receive
33
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
any Bond or the investor's subscription order is only partially satisfied, or if the investor withdraws the subscription order, the blocked funds shall be released in accordance with the procedures and instructions of the account-managing institution through which the subscription order was submitted. Any release of funds shall normally occur no later than 5 (five) Business Days after the end of the Subscription Period, as applicable, or, in the case of an investor's valid exercise of a withdrawal right, after such withdrawal right is exercised.
Regardless of the reason for the release of funds, the Issuer shall not be liable for the release of such funds or for the payment of any interest on such funds for the period during which they were blocked. Any funds released or amounts returned or shall be made without compensation for any costs incurred by investors in connection with the subscription for the Bonds.
On the Issue Date: (i) an amount equal to the number of Bonds allocated multiplied by the Issue Price multiplied by the Nominal Value of the Bond shall be transferred to the Issuer; and (ii) the corresponding allocated Bonds shall be credited to the investors' securities accounts. All payments shall be made in EUR.
4.6. Allocation
The allocation of the Bonds will be determined by the Issuer in its sole discretion, taking into account the level of demand for the Bonds and the qualitative composition of the investor base. The Issuer may, but is not obliged to, consult with any placement agent(s) in connection with the allocation. The Issuer reserves the right to accept or reject any subscription order, in whole or in part, including in connection with compliance with applicable anti-money laundering, sanctions or other regulatory requirements.
In the event of oversubscription, the Issuer may allocate the Bonds in such manner as it deems appropriate, including, without limitation, by applying pro rata allocation, rounding principles, minimum or maximum allocation thresholds, or by giving preference to certain investors or categories of investors. The specific allocation principles applicable to a Series may be further specified in the relevant Final Terms.
If the total number of Bonds subscribed for is less than the number of Bonds intended to be issued, the Issuer may reduce the size of the issue or cancel the offering in accordance with this Base Prospectus.
The Issuer may increase the aggregate nominal amount of a Series during the Subscription Period, subject to the terms set out in the relevant Final Terms. The final aggregate nominal amount of the Series will be determined upon completion of the allocation.
Information on the results of the Offering and the allocation of the Bonds will be published on the website of the Issuer and on the website of Nasdaq Riga.
4.7. Settlement
The settlement for the offering of the Bonds will be carried out in accordance with the delivery-versus-payment principle pursuant to applicable rules of Nasdaq CSD. The Bonds allocated to the investors shall be transferred to their securities accounts simultaneously with the transfer of payment for such Bonds.
The title to the Bonds shall pass to the relevant investors upon transfer of the Bonds to their securities accounts. If an investor has submitted several subscription orders through several securities
34
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
accounts, the Bonds allocated to such investor shall be transferred to all such securities accounts proportionally to the number of the Bonds indicated in the subscription orders submitted for each account.
The settlement of the offering of the Bonds will be carried out in accordance with the delivery-versus-payment principle pursuant to applicable rules of Nasdaq CSD shall take place on the Issue Date. All paid up Bonds shall be treated as issued.
4.8. Cancellation of the Offering
The Issuer reserves the right to cancel the offering of any Series at any time prior to the Issue Date, in its sole discretion, including in the following circumstances:
- the total valid subscription orders received during the Subscription Period are below the number of Bonds specified in the Final Terms;
- a material adverse change in the financial condition, business, results of operations or prospects of the Company has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur;
- a material adverse change in financial market conditions has occurred that, in the reasonable opinion of the Management Board, makes the offering inadvisable;
- a supplement to the Prospectus is required and investors exercise their withdrawal rights, resulting in total subscriptions falling below the minimum threshold; or
- any applicable regulatory approval required for the offering is not obtained or is revoked.
Cancellation will be announced no later than of the following Business Day of the decision by publishing notification on the website of the Issuer and on the website of Nasdaq Riga.
4.9. Underwriting
None of the Bonds will be underwritten.
35
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
5. REASONS FOR THE OFFERING AND USE OF PROCEEDS
The net proceeds of the Bonds issued under the Programme will be used by the Issuer for the following purposes, in approximate order of priority:
- Tier 2 Capital Strengthening (primary purpose): The Bonds are intended to qualify as Tier 2 capital instruments within the meaning of Article 63 of the CRR. The proceeds of the issuance will be used to strengthen the Issuer's regulatory capital position by increasing the Total Capital Ratio and providing an additional capital buffer above minimum regulatory requirements to support the planned growth of the loan portfolio. In addition, the proceeds may be used, in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements, to absorb and cover ongoing losses arising in the ordinary course of the Issuer's business. The strengthening of the Issuer's regulatory capital base remains the primary purpose of the issuance.
- IT Infrastructure and Service Development: A portion of the proceeds may be used to fund continued investment in the Company's mobile banking application, core banking system enhancements, and the development of new banking products and services.
- General Banking Purposes: The remaining proceeds will be used for general corporate and banking purposes.
The expenses of each series of Bonds will depend on a number of factors, including the size of the respective series and distribution method. Such expenses may include, inter alia, fees payable to issuing agent, placement agents, legal and advisory fees, listing and trading fees, and settlement-related costs. The estimated total expenses of a particular series of Bonds and the estimated net proceeds will be specified in the applicable Final Terms.
Investors should note that there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to deploy the proceeds of the Bonds for the stated purposes in accordance with its current plans. See Section 3 (Risk Factors) for risks that may adversely affect the Company's ability to execute its business strategy.

6.2. History and Background
INDEXO Banka is a credit institution and wholly-owned subsidiary of IPAS INDEXO, a Latvian investment management company and pension fund manager. IPAS INDEXO was founded in 2017 by a group of Latvian entrepreneurs and financial professionals, with the stated mission to improve the financial environment in Latvia by offering modern, low-cost and transparent financial services.
IPAS INDEXO grew rapidly in its core pension management business, attracting over 100,000 pension clients within several years of founding. Building on this brand and client base, IPAS INDEXO decided to establish a bank in order to offer its clients a comprehensive range of financial services - banking, payments, savings and lending.
The Company was incorporated as AS IDX1R on 19 December 2022. The banking licence application was submitted to the Bank of Latvia and the European Central Bank in 2023. Following a thorough assessment process, the ECB authorised the grant of a credit institution licence, which was issued by the Bank of Latvia on 16 May 2024.
INDEXO Banka is the first new credit institution to receive a banking licence in Latvia since Latvia joined the Eurozone in 2014. The licence was granted following the ECB's assessment of the Company's business model, initial capital base, governance structures, risk management framework, and IT infrastructure. This was a historically significant event in the Latvian banking sector.
INDEXO Banka has completed now its first full year of operations, and in reviewing achievements, Company is pleased with the range of products and services developed for private individuals. The Company positioned itself as a distinctive player in the Latvian financial market through ease of use and innovative products, offering customers new opportunities and more favourable terms.
The launch of operations is always associated with overcoming significant challenges. Throughout 2025, the Company worked on the introduction of several products, which in many cases required more time and resources than initially planned. Although the launch of the AS INDEXO Banka was a significant milestone, the INDEXO brand continues to be primarily associated with pension management rather than banking services. Moreover, despite several substantial advantages, changes in customers' financial service habits occur gradually and over time.
As a result of the above factors, the Company's results for the first half of 2025 fell short of plan. However, by adhering to the Company's strategic plan, rapid growth in the loan portfolio was achieved and, correspondingly, in revenues during the second half of the 2025.
INDEXO Banka commenced operations by offering core daily banking services to private individuals – payments, cards, savings products (term deposits and savings accounts), and consumer lending through a convenient and modern mobile application. Company also provides customers with more

favourable pricing terms, including being the only credit institution in Latvia that appropriately remunerates customers for balances held in current accounts. Although the initial product offering was modern, convenient and competitively priced for customers, there remains a need to expand and further enhance it.
6.3. Articles of Association
The Articles of Association (Statūti) of AS INDEXO Banka were registered in the Latvian Commercial Register on 19th of December 2022 and were last amended on 25th of March 2026. The Articles of Association comply with the requirements of the Commercial Law and the Law on Credit Institution of the Republic of Latvia. The Company's object is to provide banking and financial services in accordance with the credit institution licence issued by the Bank of Latvia. The Company is established for an indefinite period.

9. BUSINESS OVERVIEW
9.1. Overview of the Business
AS INDEXO Banka is the banking subsidiary of IPAS INDEXO, a Nasdaq Riga-listed Latvian financial services group established with the mission to improve the financial environment in Latvia. The Group combines pension asset management, retail banking and consumer lending. Through its pension business, IPAS INDEXO has established one of Latvia's most recognised financial brands, managing more than EUR 1.5 billion in assets under management across almost 160,000 client accounts and operating as the third-largest pension asset manager in the country. This foundation provides the Bank with a differentiated starting position: direct access to a large, trusted retail client base, established digital infrastructure, and a group capable of generating meaningful capital to support the Bank's growth. The Group's consumer lending subsidiary, AS DelfinGroup, is a profitable, dividend-paying business, providing the Group with an additional source of internal capital to support the Bank's development.
AS INDEXO Banka received its banking licence on 16 May 2024 and commenced operations on 28 August 2024, becoming the first new credit institution licensed in Latvia since the country joined the eurozone. The Bank operates a fully digital model, serving retail customers through a mobile-first platform with a single customer support centre in Riga.
INDEXO's mission regarding the bank development is to reignite the competition in Latvian banking sector by offering modern banking solutions and better access to financing for private customers and later also corporate customers. The Bank's strategy is to offer Latvian retail customers a transparent and competitive alternative in everyday banking services - free of monthly fees, savings with market-leading interest rates, lending products accessible through a fast and user friendly mobile application, supported by seamless digital onboarding. Its current product offering spans payments, cards, savings products, consumer lending, mortgage refinancing and home equity.
Since launching in August 2024, the Bank has grown rapidly. By 31 December 2025 - its first full year of operations - INDEXO Banka had attracted 49,700 clients, built a net loan portfolio of EUR 54.9 million, accumulated EUR 73.8 million in deposits and reached total assets of EUR 87.8 million. By 31 March 2026, the most recent operational date as at the date of this Prospectus, client numbers had grown to 57,100, deposits to EUR 90.5 million and the net loan portfolio to EUR 76.7 million.
The Bank has established a notable early position in two segments: approximately $10 - 15%$ market share in new consumer loan contracts among peer banks, and an estimated $63 - 70%$ share of mortgage refinancing transactions switching between banks in Q3-Q4 2025 - confirming both the relevance of the Bank's pricing proposition and the latent demand for a competitive alternative.
Looking ahead, the Bank's operations are organised around several strategic priorities: building out its custodian bank capabilities by generating fee income from asset custody services (AS INDEXO Banka is expected to commence providing custody services to IPAS INDEXO in the second quarter of 2026) and enabling retail investors to access and trade securities directly through the Bank; significantly expanding the loan portfolio in a disciplined manner, supported by prudent risk management and capital planning; deepening customer value and daily banking relevance to increase the retail deposits; leveraging Group synergies across IPAS INDEXO, its pension fund and the recently acquired DelfinGroup (72.07% as of the date of this Prospectus); and strengthening product development capacity.

With a proven digital model, a growing customer base and a structurally underserved market, INDEXO Banka is well-positioned to become a meaningful force in Latvian retail banking.
9.2. The Latvian Banking Market
Latvia has a concentrated banking market dominated by four large foreign-owned commercial banks: Swedbank AS (Swedish ownership), SEB banka AS (Swedish ownership), Luminor Bank AS (US private equity / Nordic ownership via merger), and AS Citadele banka (US private equity ownership). As of 30 September 2025, these four banks collectively held approximately:
| Metric | Top 4 banks combined | INDEXO Banka |
|---|---|---|
| Share of total banking assets | ~83.1% | ~0.28% |
| Share of total lending to residents | ~82.5% | growing |
| Share of resident deposits | ~85.4% | growing |
| Total assets (EUR bn) | ~EUR 25.8bn | EUR 0.088bn |
| Metric | All banks combined | |
| Total banking sector assets (EUR bn) | ~EUR 31.1bn | |
| Total banking sector loans (EUR bn) | ~EUR 17.8bn | |
| Total banking sector deposits (EUR bn) | ~EUR 24.4bn |
Latvian household mortgage penetration - approximately 13% of GDP - is among the lowest in the EU, indicating significant untapped demand for mortgage lending, particularly from younger households forming families and seeking home ownership. This structural gap in credit supply represents a long-term growth runway that is not dependent on market share gains alone, but on the gradual deepening of an underleveraged economy.
The Latvian mortgage market is highly concentrated, with the four largest banks consistently accounting for nearly 90% of newly issued residential mortgage lending in recent years. Mortgage rates in Latvia have been among the highest in the Eurozone, reflecting the oligopolistic pricing environment. INDEXO Banka has targeted this market as a key growth driver, entering with competitive EURIBOR-based pricing - and has already captured an estimated 63-70% share of mortgage refinancing transactions between banks in Q3-Q4 2025, demonstrating that Latvian borrowers are responsive to pricing competition when a credible alternative exists.
The funding side presents an equally compelling dynamic. Latvian households hold approximately EUR 11.5 billion in deposits, of which around EUR 9.2 billion or 80% are current account deposits and earn no interest - compared to a eurozone average of 56%. Incumbent banks have shown limited appetite to remunerate these balances, creating a clear opening for a deposit-gathering challenger offering transparent, market-leading rates. For INDEXO Banka, this represents both a customer acquisition channel and a scalable, retail-funded lending model - the foundation upon which the Bank's growth strategy and the subordinated debt issued under this Prospectus are premised.

9.3. Products and Services
All INDEXO Banka products are accessible exclusively through the INDEXO mobile application (available on iOS and Android) and, for selected services, through the customer service centre in Riga. The Bank's product suite as at the date of this Prospectus is as follows:
9.3.1. Current Accounts and Payments

Account opening is fully digital and takes on average less than 5 minutes. The account includes a VISA card combining debit card and credit card functionality (physical and digital) and full SEPA payment functionality, including SEPA Credit Transfers and SEPA Instant Credit Transfers (IPR compliant). Google Pay and Apple Pay were launched in April 2025. The Bank supports the Instant Payments Regulation requirements effective January 2025. The Bank's product roadmap for 2026 includes the introduction of a premium card product and Platinum plan, junior accounts, and a web interface - intended to deepen daily banking engagement.
9.3.2. Savings Products
INDEXO Banka offers two savings products: (i) a savings account (Vaults product) paying 2.00% per annum on balances freely withdrawable at any time without penalty; and (ii) term deposits ranging from 3 months to 5 years at competitive fixed rates that typically exceed those of Latvian government savings bonds and the dominant incumbent banks. The Bank is consistently ranked among the top-paying deposit institutions in Latvia. As of 31 December 2025, the weighted average rate on term deposits was 3.11% per annum. To support funding diversification, the Bank is currently assessing potential options for attracting deposits through deposit platforms. Subject to the outcome of this assessment, the Bank intends to apply for the relevant regulatory approvals from the Bank of Latvia. Any use of deposit platforms would be implemented, as a tactical funding channel subject to strict concentration, maturity and pricing limits.
9.3.3. Consumer Lending
INDEXO Banka offers fully digital unsecured consumer loans of up to EUR 25,000 with maturities of up to 7 years. Loan applications are processed and disbursed in under 5 minutes through the mobile application, using an automated credit scoring system based on Creditinformation Bureau data. The weighted average interest rate on consumer loans as of 31 December 2025 was 12.49% per annum. The consumer loan portfolio as of 31 December 2025 amounted to EUR 32.5 million (gross). The Company launched consumer loan additional amount functionality during 2025. The Bank's 2026 priorities include the development of an in-house credit scoring model to replace reliance on external providers, reducing both cost and decision turnaround time, as well as the introduction of an overdraft product and a consumer loan consolidation product.
9.3.4. Mortgage Lending
INDEXO Banka launched mortgage refinancing products in May 2025, becoming one of the most competitive providers in the Latvian mortgage refinancing market. The Bank achieved a 60-70% share of the Latvian mortgage refinancing segment in the months following launch, reflecting strong demand for its competitive pricing (3.89% weighted average rate incl. EURIBOR). Home equity loans (secured
51
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
loans against residential property equity) were launched in February 2026. New-purchase mortgage origination is planned for later in 2026.
As of 31 December 2025, the gross mortgage loan portfolio amounted to EUR 23.6 million (representing a weighted average LTV of approximately 60% at origination, based on independent property valuations). All mortgaged properties are located in Latvia.
9.3.5. Retirement Planner
INDEXO Banka has integrated a “Retirement Planner” tool in its mobile application that enables all Latvian residents to view their 2nd pillar pension savings, contributions and earnings through the State Social Insurance Agency API. This was the first such integration in a Latvian banking application (launched February 2025) and provides significant cross-selling opportunity by encouraging INDEXO pension clients to also bank with INDEXO Banka. The Bank's 2026 product roadmap further envisages unified onboarding flows across IPAS INDEXO pension and banking products.
9.4. Technology and IT Infrastructure
INDEXO Banka operates a cloud-native, API-first technology stack built on the Mambu core banking platform (developed by Mambu B.V., Netherlands), which provides the deposit engine, loan engine and account management capabilities. The Bank's payment infrastructure uses Mambu Payments, integrated with SEPA Instant Credit Transfers and TARGET2, with a migration to Mambu Payments completed in 2025. The front-end mobile application is developed internally. The Bank's technology architecture is designed for scalability and rapid product deployment - enabling continuous iteration and data-driven decision-making across lending, deposits and customer engagement. In 2025, two internal development teams were established as part of a deliberate insourcing strategy aimed at strengthening in-house capabilities and reducing third-party delivery costs over time.
Total cumulative IT investments since inception have reached EUR 7.5 million as of 31 December 2025, of which EUR 4.4 million is capitalised as intangible assets in the balance sheet (mobile application and core banking systems, depreciated over 5 years). The Bank employed 84 FTE as at 31 December 2025, of whom approximately 20% are in technology roles.
9.5. Competitive Position
INDEXO Banka's competitive advantages include: (i) the INDEXO brand and existing trust relationship with almost 160,000 pension clients' accounts; (ii) a customer acquisition cost advantage arising from the ability to cross-sell banking products to IPAS INDEXO and AS DelfinGroup clients; (iii) a modern and agile technology platform, which the Bank believes, over the long term, has the potential to support efficient product development and scalable operations compared to more complex legacy systems; (iv) competitive deposit rates that attract price-sensitive savers; (v) a simple, transparent pricing model with no hidden fees; and (vi) its status as a truly local bank - locally owned, locally managed and locally governed, with strategic decisions taken in Latvia, in contrast to the four dominant incumbents whose ownership and strategic direction sit outside the country.
Key competitive challenges include: (i) the small scale of the Company relative to incumbent banks, limiting its ability to spread fixed costs; (ii) the early-stage loan portfolio that generates limited net interest income relative to expenses; (iii) reliance on a single distribution channel (mobile application)
52
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
that excludes less digitally literate customers; (iv) the capital-intensive nature of rapidly growing a loan portfolio from a standing start; and (v) a structural funding cost disadvantage relative to incumbent banks, which benefit from large captive current account deposit bases accumulated over decades - meaning that INDEXO Banka must offer higher deposit rates to attract retail funding, which compresses net interest margin relative to peers, particularly in the mortgage segment where pricing has tightened significantly since mid-2025.
9.6. Post-Balance Sheet Events
The following material events occurred after 31 December 2025 (the reporting date of the most recent Audited Financial Statements):
- Home equity loans: On 6 February 2026, the Bank launched home equity loans - a mortgage product allowing existing homeowners to borrow against the equity in their property. This is a new product category in Latvia and represents a significant expansion of the mortgage offering.
- Capital increase: as of the date of prospectus the Bank's share capital had been increased by a further EUR 2,950,000, bringing total share capital to EUR 30,275,002. An additional EUR 750,000 of subordinated deposits were raised.
- DelfinGroup acquisition completion: In January 2026, IPAS INDEXO completed its acquisition of a 71.52% majority stake in AS DelfinGroup, a publicly listed Latvian non-bank lending company. In April 2026, IPAS INDEXO acquired additional shares in AS DelfinGroup through an over-the-counter transaction, increasing its shareholding in the company's share capital to 72.07%. This makes INDEXO Group a more diversified financial services group and creates additional profitability at the group level that could, over time, support continued capital injections into INDEXO Banka in the form of AS DelfinGroup dividends.
Supervisory Board change: On 12 February 2026, Ramona Miglăne resigned as a Member of the Supervisory Board. Zlata Elksnina-Zašcirinska was appointed as a replacement, following approval by the Bank of Latvia. The new composition was registered in the Commercial Register on 17 February 2026.
Profitability milestone: The INDEXO Group achieved profitability in January 2026 as a result of the consolidation of AS DelfinGroup's financial results.
Save as disclosed in this Prospectus, there has been no recent event particular to the Issuer which is to a material extent relevant to the evaluation of the Issuer's insolvency.
9.7. Trend Information and Prospects
There has been no material adverse change in the prospects of the Issuer since the date of its last published audited financial statements. Since the end of the last financial period for which financial information has been published, the INDEXO Group achieved profitability in January 2026 as a result of the consolidation of AS DelfinGroup's financial results. Save as disclosed above, there has been no significant change in the financial performance of the Group.
The Management Board of INDEXO Banka is not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments or events that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the Company's prospects for the remainder of the current financial year (2026), other than as described in this Prospectus and in the risk factors in Section 3.

AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
As INDEXO Group continues to develop, we remain committed to driving further growth and achieving new milestones in our journey. By leveraging innovative financial solutions and a customer-centric approach, INDEXO Banka will experience rapid growth and product expansion while INDEXO pension business aims to considerably grow 3rd pillar AUM and customer number by developing better tools for financial planning and retirement savings.
The key trends as at the date of this Prospectus that are expected to affect the Company's performance in 2026 include: (i) continued rapid growth in the loan portfolio, particularly in mortgage lending following the launch of home equity loans; (ii) a gradual improvement in net interest margin as the higher-yielding consumer loan portfolio matures; (iii) a moderation in operating expense growth as the initial technology and team-build investment phase concludes; (iv) an expected decline in the Total Capital Ratio toward minimum requirements as the loan portfolio grows, requiring additional capital support; (v) AS INDEXO Banka is expected to commence providing custody services to IPAS INDEXO in the second quarter of 2026, generating fee income from asset safekeeping and enabling retail investors to hold and trade securities directly through the Bank in the future.
The Bank plans to reach break-even (excluding ECL provisions) by December 2026, based on the current revenue trajectory and cost base. Full-year net profitability is not expected until 2027 at the earliest, subject to credit loss performance and capital-raising success.
At the beginning of the September 2025 Indexo Group's has published long term financial targets and strategic goals for the combined group through 2028, assuming the acquisition of 65% of DelfinGroup shares.

11. TAXATION
The following Section contains a general summary of certain tax considerations relating to the Bonds in Latvia, based on the laws and regulations of Latvia in force as at the date of this Prospectus. The summary is of a general nature and is not intended to be a comprehensive or definitive analysis of all tax aspects that may be relevant to a particular investor. The summary does not consider or discuss the tax implications of any country other than Latvia.
Tax laws are complex and subject to change. Changes in tax treatment could affect the after-tax return on the Bonds. The Company will not gross up payments in respect of taxes withheld. Investors should consult their own independent tax advisers with respect to the specific tax consequences of subscribing for, holding and disposing of the Bonds, given their individual circumstances, tax residency, and applicable law. The tax summary in this Section shall not be treated as legal or tax advice.
Latvia has entered a number of tax conventions on elimination of the double taxation, which may provide more favourable taxation regime. Therefore, if there is a valid tax convention with the country of a non-resident Bondholder, it should be also examined. The procedures for application of tax conventions are provided in the Republic of Latvia Cabinet of Ministers' Regulations No. 178 "Procedures for Application of Tax Relief Determined in International Agreements for Prevention of Double Taxation and Tax Evasion" of 30 April 2001.
11.1. Latvian Resident Individuals
An individual will be considered as a resident of Latvia for taxation purposes:
- if the individual's declared place of residence is in the Republic of Latvia; or
- if the individual stays in the Republic of Latvia 183 days or more within any 12-month period, starting or ending in the taxation year; or
- if the individual is a citizen of the Republic of Latvia employed abroad by the government of the Republic of Latvia.
Under the Personal Income Tax Law of the Republic of Latvia (PIT Law), capital gains (ienākums no kapitāla) - including interest income received from bonds issued by Latvian companies and capital gains from the sale of the Bonds is subject to personal income tax (iedzīvotaiju ienākuma nodoklis). As of 1 January 2025, the personal income tax rate on income from capital gains is 25.5%.
The Issuer is required to withhold 25.5% of each interest payment made to a Latvian resident individual Bondholder and remit this amount to the Latvian State Revenue Service (VID) on the Bondholder's behalf. In case of sale of the Bonds, 25.5% tax on the capital gains shall be payable by the individual him/herself.
Should the total taxable income, as defined under the PIT Law, of an individual resident of Latvia exceed EUR 200,000 in a year, additional tax rate of 3% will be applicable to the portion of income exceeding EUR 200,000.
For information regarding investment account regime, please refer to subsection 11.4 below.
11.2. Latvian Resident Legal Entities
59
AS INDEXO BANKA · Base Prospectus · EUR 10,000,000 Tier 2 Subordinated Bond Issuance Programme
An entity will be considered as a resident of Latvia for tax purposes if it is or should have been established and registered in the Republic of Latvia in accordance with the legislative acts of the Republic of Latvia. This also include permanent establishments of foreign entities in Latvia.
Under the Corporate Income Tax Law of the Republic of Latvia, effective from 1 January 2018, corporate income tax (uzņēmumu ienākuma nodoklis) is applied under a distributed profits model. Corporate income tax is levied at a rate of 20% of the grossed-up distributed amount (i.e. 20/80 of the net distribution, corresponding to an effective tax burden of approximately 25%) upon the distribution of profits or upon deemed distributions.
Interest income from Bonds and capital gains from the sale of the Bonds received by a Latvian resident entity is not subject to corporate income tax at the time of receipt. Such income is effectively taxed only when it forms part of profits that are distributed or deemed to be distributed in accordance with the Corporate Income Tax Law of the Republic of Latvia.
Latvian resident entities are required to maintain proper accounting records in accordance with applicable laws and to comply with corporate income tax reporting obligations.
11.3. Non-Resident Investors
An individual will be considered non-resident investor if the individual does not qualify as a resident individual under Latvian laws. An entity will be considered non-resident investor if the entity does not qualify as a resident entity under Latvian laws.
In general, interest income as well as gains from the sale of the publicly circulated Bonds received by the non-resident individuals are not subject to tax in Latvia.
Interest income and gains from the sale of the Bonds received by non-resident legal entities are generally not subject to withholding tax in Latvia.
Payments (including interest payments) to non-residents located, registered or incorporated in a no-tax or low-tax country or territory as defined in the Regulations of the Cabinet of Ministers No.333 "List of Low Tax or No-Tax Countries and Territories" are generally subject to withholding tax of 20 per-cent if the payer is a Latvian legal entity or 25.5 per-cent if the payer is a Latvian individual resident having obligation to withhold tax. However, payments by Latvian legal entities to the residents of no-tax or low-tax country or territory for securities publicly circulated in the EU or EEA are exempt from withholding tax if made at the market price.
11.4. Investment Account Regime
Individuals who hold the Bonds through a qualifying investment account (ieguldījumu konts) registered with the State Revenue Service (VID) are eligible to tax deferral regime under which income derived from financial instruments (including interest income and capital gains from the sale of the bonds) is not subject to taxation at the time of receipt. Instead, personal income tax at a rate of 25.5% is applied to the net amount of funds withdrawn from the investment account (i.e., when funds withdrawn from the investment account exceed the amount contributed to the investment account), in accordance with the PIT Law. Where the Bonds are held through a qualifying investment account registered with the State Revenue Service (VID), interest income credited to such account and gains resulted from the sale of the Bonds at such account is generally not subject to withholding tax at source, and the applicable tax is instead levied upon withdrawals from the investment account. The application of this regime is determined by the account-managing institution.
