Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft says its financial targets and capital objectives are based on EU IFRS, which applies the EU carve-out’s fair value hedge accounting to non-maturing deposits and fixed-rate mortgages with pre-payment options. The bank says this treatment minimizes accounting exposure to positive and negative interest-rate moves in each tenor bucket and reduces volatility in reported revenue from Treasury activities.
Certain reports prepared for U.S. reporting purposes use IASB IFRS, which does not permit the EU carve-out but is otherwise the same as EU IFRS. Deutsche Bank also lists selected non-GAAP measures with their closest IFRS comparators, including currency-adjusted revenues compared with net revenues and adjusted net assets compared with total assets.
Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft incorporated the report and its exhibits by reference into Registration Statement No. 333-278331. The exhibits include a legal opinion relating to senior debt securities and consents from Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP.
Deutsche Bank AG furnishes an interim reporting package for the period ended June 30, 2026, prepared under IFRS as issued by the IASB, together with a separate capitalization table. These materials are attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 and are incorporated by reference into Registration Statement No. 333-278331.
The bank explains its parallel use of EU IFRS with the EU carve out for non-U.S. purposes, notably fair value hedge accounting for portfolio interest rate hedges, while U.S. reporting relies on IASB IFRS, which does not permit that carve out. The interim report includes non-GAAP financial measures such as tangible shareholders’ equity and currency-adjusted revenues, with detailed descriptions and reconciliations cross-referenced to the interim report and the 2025 Form 20-F. A “Risks and Opportunities” section supplements, but does not replace, the existing Risk Factors, and extensive forward-looking statement cautions highlight market, credit, strategic and risk-management uncertainties.
