Welcome

Dear shareholders, ladies and gentlemen,

OVB Holding AG achieved slight sales growth in the first half of 2023. After the predictably

difficult­ first quarter of 2023, we have thus succeeded in quickly returning to a growth trajec- tory. We are seeing a very high level of activity by our European sales team and are registering growing demand for advisory services among our clients. We increased the number of our clients by 4.5 per cent to 4.41 million. We expanded our sales team to a total of 5,806 financial ­advisors and brokerage income from Euro 169.7 million to Euro 170.6 million.

One of our recipes for success is strong diversification, with pan-European positioning in

16 countries and an extensive, well-balanced product portfolio. We more than compensated for the decline in Germany and in Southern and Western Europe in the first six months of the year with our strong performance in Central and Eastern Europe, where we increased our brokerage income by 10.0 per cent to Euro 95.1 million. We can see a similar mechanism at the level of new business: While higher interest rates are leading to a strong decline in financing business, other product groups are contributing more sales to our new business. For example, we are currently observing increased demand for unit-linked provision products.

As our performance in the first half of 2023 was in line with expectations, we are optimistic and maintaining our forecast for the year as a whole. Taking account of the continuing uncertainties over macroeconomic developments, we are anticipating brokerage income in a range between Euro 325 million and Euro 350 million and operating income of between Euro 16 million and Euro 19 million for the 2023 financial year.

Yours,

04
