CEO comment: Finishing the quarter on a high note with 12% revenue growth

The second quarter was a story of two tales, unfolding against a backdrop of
geopolitical and macroeconomic turbulence. Markets initially reacted negatively
to the new US import tariffs, with volatility peaking in April, when the VIX
exceeded 50. As the quarter drew to a close, heightened tensions between Israel
and Iran captured global attention. Nevertheless, capital markets remained
resilient, with several major indices reaching all-time highs by the end of the
quarter.

In the Nordic region, the high-yield debt capital markets (DCM) rebounded
quickly, returning to pre-disruption levels. Several planned transactions were
put on hold within the equity capital markets (ECM). Some deals were restarted
toward the end of the quarter, and a few IPOs were completed in June, which is a
promising sign that underlying investor interest is returning.

M&A and Advisory was a key driver of our performance this quarter. We advised on
more than 15 transactions, which underscores our strong market position and
resulted in a 33% revenue increase for the business segment y-o-y.

Additionally, our Brokerage and Research operations made a significant
contribution to y-o-y top-line growth. As we strengthen our focus on delivering
differentiated insights, high-conviction idea generation, and top-tier trading
and execution capabilities, we continue to see considerable engagement from
institutional investors.

Also, we are pleased with the commercial progress of our two newest ventures.
ABG Alternatives successfully raised NOK 1.45bn and launched Samfond, its
inaugural fund focused on investments in social infrastructure across Norway.
Meanwhile, our Private Banking platform has launched, welcoming its first
clients and generating significant early interest. These initiatives demonstrate
our commitment to innovation, diversification and providing exceptional service
and long-term value.
