Forward-looking statement disclaimer p. 2

Certain statements contained herein may be forward-looking statements, including predictions of or indications of future events, trends, plans, expectations or objectives, and other non-historical information. Forward-looking statements are identified by words like 'expects', 'anticipates', 'may', 'plan,' 'target' or variations thereof, or conditional verbs such as 'would' and 'could'. Statements regarding expected underlying earnings per share ('UEPS') growth for 2026 are forward-looking statements providing one-off guidance for the last year of the Group's current strategic plan. These statements are based on Management's current views and intentions and are subject to change. Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements due to known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many outside AXA's control, which could cause actual results to differ materially. Each forward-looking statement speaks only at the date of this presentation. Refer to Part 5 'Risk Factors and Risk Management' of AXA's Universal Registration Document for the year ended December 31, 2024 for a description of important factors, risks and uncertainties. AXA specifically disclaims and undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable laws and regulations. This presentation refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures, or alternative performance measures ('APMs'), used by Management for analyzing operating trends, financial performance, and position. These non-GAAP financial measures generally have no standardized meaning and may not be comparable to similarly labelled measures used by other companies. None of these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the Group's consolidated financial statements and related notes prepared in accordance with IFRS. AXA provides a reconciliation of such APMs to the most closely related line item, subtotal, or total in the financial statements of the corresponding period (and/or their calculation methodology) in its Activity Report as of December 31, 2025. AXA's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 were examined by the Board of Directors on February 25, 2026, and are subject to completion of an audit procedure by AXA's statutory auditors.
