ADCB is delivering strong and consistent progress on its strategic agenda in the context of favourable economic conditions in the UAE. Profit before tax

increased 17% year on year to AED 3.035 billion in the second quarter - extending the Bank's track record of consecutive quarterly growth to four years - and rose 18% year on year to AED 5.942 billion in the first half. On a post-tax basis, net profit(1) was AED 2.568 billion in the second quarter and AED 5.014 billion in the six-month period, delivering a return on average equity of 14.9% and 14.1% respectively.

In the first half, ADCB achieved an exceptional underlying operational and financial performance across all core businesses, generating a 22% year on year increase in operating profit. Driven by a clear focus to reach the ambitious targets set out in the recently launched five-year strategy, the Bank has delivered double-digit revenue growth powered by diverse sources of non-interest income, continued robust

credit expansion across major economic sectors, and attracted substantial inflows of CASA deposits. Above all, this strong growth trajectory is marked by disciplined cost management and compounding

productivity gains from digital and AI transformation. This step-change in efficiency has improved the cost-to-income ratio to an all-time quarterly low of 26.4% in the second quarter - a reduction of 620 basis points year on year.

The considerable progress over the last year, has been reflected in a 12-month total shareholder return of 75% as ADCB's market capitalisation crossed

the AED 100 billion milestone. The Bank remains committed to creating further value in the coming period and delivering on its five-year guidance.

For H1 2025, ADCB has provisioned for tax at a rate of 15% based on the Domestic Minimum Top-up Tax (DMTT) introduced by the UAE on 1 January 2025, versus the 9% corporate income tax rate applied in 2024. Therefore year-on-year comparison is not on a like-for-like basis

Excluding net loss on discontinued operations (as applicable) and one-off gain recorded from the divestment of an 80% stake in Abu Dhabi Commercial Properties (ADCP) in Q4'23

ADCB delivered robust top-line growth in the first half of 2025, with a 15% year-on-year increase in operating income driven by continued customer acquisition,

deeper client engagement, and a broadening suite of products and services. While net interest income increased 7% year on year, non-interest income

continues to serve as a key driver of the Bank's growth, surging 36% year on year in the first half. With strong momentum across fee and trading income, non-interest income accounted for 34% of total operating income in the first six months, up from 29% in the prior year.

Balance sheet growth remains strong amid healthy consumer and business confidence and ample system liquidity. The Bank is achieving broad-based credit growth, with net loans increasing AED 28 billion

during the first half of the year to AED 378 billion, supporting growth across diverse sectors of the UAE and regional economy. Key areas of growth included energy, trading, financial institutions, transport

and communication, and the portfolio remains well balanced, with government-related entities (GREs) comprising 24% of gross loans.

ADCB's accelerated loan growth of 10% CAGR over

the last five years has been characterised by high credit quality. The Bank maintains a disciplined approach to risk management and proactively aligns with the UAE Central Bank's new credit risk management standards. Impairments recorded in the second quarter stemmed largely from legacy corporate accounts, and the Bank's full-year and five-year cost of risk guidance remains unchanged at below 60 basis points.

Meanwhile, ADCB's strong franchise is attracting substantial inflows of customer deposits, which rose by AED 42 billion in the first half to AED 463

billion. Current and savings account (CASA) deposits increased by AED 21 billion during the first half driven by both the Retail Banking and Corporate

and Investment Banking businesses, supporting a favourable cost of funds for the Bank.

In the context of robust loan growth and a healthy credit pipeline, ADCB continues to expand and diversify its wholesale funding base, leveraging its strong standing in international capital markets. In May,

ADCB priced its second five-year Formosa bond of the year, issuing USD 600 million at SOFR +100 basis points, achieving tighter pricing than the Bank's similar February transaction. The issuance attracted strong demand from Asian investors, with a total order book exceeding USD 900 million.

Strong pace of business growth driven by sophisticated offering

Across core businesses, the Bank is introducing sophisticated product and service offerings to attract new customers, deepen banking relationships and open up new income streams.

ADCB's Retail Banking business continued to deliver on its strategy to introduce new fee-generating products and drive deposit growth, while accelerating the rollout of digital and AI initiatives. While retail assets were 7% higher year on year in the first

half, CASA deposits increased 25%. In the second quarter, over 68,000 new customers were onboarded, with a significant majority acquired through digital channels. The Bank maintains a leading position in digital acquisition of cards reflecting success of the digital-first strategy, and a newly launched AI-powered engine is personalising credit card recommendations on the mobile app. By focusing on its investment management proposition, ADCB is increasing

fee income on assets under management, which increased 35% for Retail Banking and 58% for Private Banking over the last year. This was supported by ADCB Private's launch of new wealth management solutions across public and private markets as well as structured products.

The Corporate and Investment Banking Group (CIBG) delivered another strong quarter, supported by a broad product and advisory offering and

continued growth in client relationships. The business is achieving sustained loan and CASA deposit growth, while a focus on enhancing the working

capital and transaction banking proposition is

supporting a market-leading fee-to-income ratio. The Bank onboarded over 125 new clients in the large corporate and GRE segments in the second quarter, while establishing more than 2,200 new banking relationships within the SMEs and mid-sized corporates. ADCB is also further reinforcing its position in regional capital markets, acting as joint lead manager and bookrunner on several landmark transactions during the second quarter, including sukuk issuances for DP World, ADNOC, and the Public Investment Fund (PIF) of Saudi Arabia.

In parallel, the Bank is progressing at pace on its sustainable finance and ESG agenda, strengthening ratings performance, and making significant progress on climate commitments, including preparation for the disclosure of NZBA-aligned targets for key economic sectors.

ADCB Egypt continues to deliver a strong financial and operating performance, with first-half net profit increasing 39% year on year driven by significant loan growth. Al Hilal Bank is also making good progress on its digital-first strategy, with ongoing enhancements supporting product uptake and deposit inflows.

Driving innovation in financial services

ADCB continues to advance its innovation agenda through new initiatives aimed at shaping the future of financial services, aligned with the UAE's strategic vision. In the second quarter, the Bank launched

Meedaf, an ADGM-licensed entity providing operational services to financial institutions, which subsequently entered its first partnership, with global cash management specialist Brink's. The collaboration harnesses advanced technology, infrastructure and operational expertise to establish elevated standards

in cash management and ATM managed services throughout the UAE.

During the quarter, ADCB was also certified by the Central Bank of the UAE to participate in Al Tareq,

the national Open Finance platform under its Financial Infrastructure Transformation Programme, and successfully completed the first transaction. As Open Finance gains traction, ADCB is well positioned to

be at the forefront of this new vibrant ecosystem, embedding its services more deeply into digital platforms and accelerating the delivery of more personalised, accessible, and intelligent financial experiences.

ADCB remains firmly focused on delivering sustainable growth through disciplined capital deployment and prudent risk management. With strong business fundamentals, the Bank is well positioned to create significant value and consistent returns for shareholders through close alignment with the ongoing growth and diversification of the UAE economy.

Q2'25 non-interest income surges 44% YoY while cost to income ratio improves 620 bps YoY to reach all-time quarterly low of 26.4%

Net interest income of AED 3.654 billion in Q2'25 increased 8% QoQ and 12% YoY, with higher volumes partially offsetting the impact of three interest rate cuts since September. For the six-month period, net interest income was 7% higher YoY at AED 7.048 billion. Net interest margin (NIM) of 2.49% in Q2'25 held steady sequentially and declined 14 bps YoY. H1'25 NIM was 17 bps lower YoY at 2.49% due to the lower rate environment.

Non-interest income continues to serve as a key contributor to the Bank's growth driven by

deepening relationships and enhanced offerings. Non-interest income increased 36% YoY to

AED 3.693 billion in H1'25, representing 34% of total operating income, up from 29% a year earlier. Growth was broad based, with a 16% rise in net fees and commission income and a 43% increase in net trading income, while other operating income more than doubled primarily on account of higher gains on sale of loans.

Q2'25 non-interest income was AED 2.074 billion, an increase of 44% YoY and 28% sequentially driven by all main line items. Net fees and commission income saw strong growth of

15% YoY and 13% QoQ to AED 929 million.

Net trading income increased significantly, rising 82% YoY and 56% QoQ to AED 872 million on higher gains from derivatives, foreign exchange

and trading securities. Q2'25 other operating income was up 83% YoY and 14% QoQ at AED 273 million.

Operating income was AED 5.728 billion in Q2'25,

an increase of 22% YoY and 14% higher sequentially, and reached AED 10.741 billion in H1'25, an increase of 15% on the previous year.

The Bank achieved a strong improvement in the cost to income ratio to an all-time quarterly low of 26.4% in Q2'25, representing a significant decline of 620 bps YoY and 280 bps QoQ, driven by higher operating income combined with sustained cost discipline and digital-led operating efficiencies.

For the six-month period, the cost to income ratio stood at 27.7%, a 400 bps improvement from a year earlier. Operating expenses reduced 1% YoY and were up 3% sequentially at AED 1.511 billion in Q2'25, and in H1'25 was stable YoY at AED 2.975 billion.

ADCB's accelerated loan growth of 10% CAGR over the last five years has been characterised by high credit quality. The Bank maintains a disciplined approach to risk management and proactively aligns with the UAE Central Bank's new credit risk management standards. Impairment charge of

AED 1.186 billion recorded in Q2'25 stemmed largely from legacy corporate accounts, and the Bank's

full-year and five-year cost of risk guidance remains unchanged at below 60 basis points. For the six-month period, impairment charge was AED 1.832 billion, versus AED 1.329 billion a year earlier.

CoR: Net impairment charge on loans & advances and investments divided by net average loans & advances and investments

This statement represents a forward-looking projection and is subject to necessary approvals, including but not limited to board, regulatory, and shareholder approvals

Profit before tax increased 17% YoY and 4% QoQ to AED 3.035 billion in Q2'25, and was AED 5.942 billion in H1'25, up 18% YoY. Net profit after tax was AED 2.568 billion in Q2'25 and AED 5.014 billion in H1'25. This represents a return on average equity of 14.9% and 14.1% respectively.

Effective 1 January 2025, the UAE has enacted a 15% Domestic Minimum Top-up Tax (DMTT) aligned with OECD Pillar Two Model rules. The Group has applied this rate for H1'25 and is assessing its eligibility for the Initial Phase of Internal Activity Exclusion (IAE), which would reduce the statutory tax rate to 9%. The Group

anticipates completing its evaluation of the IAE by quarter ending 30 September 2025. Any resulting adjustments will be reflected in income tax expense in the period in which the assessment is finalised.

Sustained pace of balance sheet growth with net loans up AED 28 billion in H1'25 across diverse economic sectors, while strong franchise attracted AED 21 billion of CASA deposits

Robust balance sheet, with total assets increasing 17% YoY and 10% YTD to reach AED 719 billion at June-end.

Net loans and advances to customers increased 14% YoY (AED 46 billion) and 8% YTD

(AED 28 billion) to AED 378 billion at June-end, with the Bank extending AED 72 billion in new credit in the first half of 2025 and receiving AED 43 billion in repayments. Key sectors of significant credit growth included energy, trading, financial institutions, transport and communication. The portfolio remains well balanced, with GREs comprising 24% of gross loans, real estate investment representing 13%, financial institutions 10% and trading 9%, while personal loans accounted for 19%.

Accelerated loan growth and diversification of the portfolio in the second quarter is reflected in the Bank's capital ratios. As at 30 June 2025,

the capital adequacy ratio (Basel III) was 15.53%, and the CET1 ratio stood at 12.21%.

The NPL ratio continued to improve to 2.02% at June-end, from 2.24% at March-end and 3.04% at December-end. Provision coverage rose to

173.1%, up from 150.1% and 110.0% over the same reference points. Including collateral held,

the coverage ratio stood at 279%, compared to 260% at March-end and 188% at December-end.

Investment securities stood at AED 154 billion, up 16% YoY and 7% YTD, with 99% invested in bonds. The securities were 57% accounted for at

amortised cost and 43% at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) and marked to market on a daily basis. In the interbank markets, ADCB was a net lender of AED 25.8 billion as at June-end.

The Bank's strong franchise continued to drive robust growth in customer deposits, which increased 19% YoY (AED 73 billion) and 10% YTD (AED 42 billion) to AED 463 billion as at the end of June. CASA deposits were up 21% YoY (AED 35 billion) and increased

11% YTD (AED 21 billion), accounting for 50% of H1'25 deposit growth. CASA deposits represented 45% of total deposits at June-end, up from 44% at December-end.

The Bank maintained a strong liquidity position, with a liquidity coverage ratio of 135.2%, a liquidity ratio of 33.3% and a loan-to-deposit ratio of 81.7% as at 30 June 2025.

Total shareholders' equity stood at AED 76 billion as of 30 June 2025.

AI and digital transformation delivering tangible growth, innovation and efficiency

ADCB is delivering growth through the accelerated rollout of digital initiatives to enhance the customer experience. In Q2'25, the Group onboarded over 68,000 new retail customers, with 62% acquired through digital channels. Digital sales of cards reached a record monthly high in Q2, and to enhance the digital credit card journey, ADCB has launched

an AI-powered recommendation engine within its

mobile app to deliver personalised product matching, enabling accelerated straight through processing.

ADCB has outperformed UAE and global benchmarks for rates of customer digital adoption and mobile usage, according to a report by a respected international consultancy conducted this year. Automation continues to support scalability of ADCB's offering, with 97% of retail financial transactions conducted via self-service

in Q2'25(1). With 92% of customers registered on digital platforms, more than 950,000 service requests were raised digitally in the quarter(1). Recent digital enhancements include the launch of a goal-based

savings account on the mobile app, API-enabled cross-border payments and expansion of cardless ATM cash withdrawals.

Meanwhile, automation of key processes such as vehicle loan onboarding and cheque verification has improved turnaround times and service quality. Integration into partner ecosystems continues, with

ADCB's modern app infrastructure allowing credit card digital onboarding for customers of major retail brands via the Landmark Group's Shukran app. This builds further on ADCB's partnership ecosystem, which includes collaboration on home loans with Bayut and payments with Talabat.

The Bank continues to strengthen its digital capabilities for corporate and SME clients. Recent enhancements include introduction of term deposit bookings on mobile phones via the ProCash cash management app, as well as improvements to ADCB's liquidity management and virtual account offering, such as automated fee recovery and a streamlined charge process.

The Bank has launched a new cloud-based digital platform that onboards SMEs within 10 minutes, with significantly accelerated processing times for account activation, fixed deposits, debit cards and cheque books.

ADCB is unlocking operational efficiency through adoption of generative AI across the Group, including a structured enablement programme and executive-led "promptathon" sessions. Early use cases, such as automating ATM and cash deposit reconciliation, are already enhancing accuracy

and accelerating internal workflows. In parallel, an AI-powered solution has been introduced to transform invoice processing through automated procurement and payment processes.

ADCB has become the first bank certified by the Central Bank of the UAE (CBUAE) to participate in Al Tareq, the national Open Finance platform under its Financial Infrastructure Transformation Programme. The Bank successfully completed the first transaction on the platform, marking

an important milestone in a vibrant ecosystem, and is collaborating with leading fintechs and startups to create innovative solutions. ADCB is also collaborating closely with UAE government agencies and the CBUAE on a broad range of new

financial initiatives, including a new domestic instant payments platform and enhancements to cross-border payments.

ADCB makes solid progress on first NZBA targets for key sectors and receives uplift in Bloomberg ESG score
