Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Aegon Ltd. has published unaudited pro forma financials showing the impact of its proposed sale of Aegon UK plc to Standard Life. The deal, announced April 15, 2026, would deliver GBP 750 million in cash and a 15.3% equity stake in Standard Life.

Based on the pro forma statement of financial position as of December 31, 2025, Aegon’s total assets would fall from EUR 317,233 million to EUR 192,709 million, mainly due to removing Aegon UK’s investments. Shareholders’ equity would increase by EUR 1,119 million to EUR 10,529 million, reflecting expected net consideration and derecognition of Aegon UK.

The pro forma income statements show how removing Aegon UK’s results would have affected past performance. For 2025, net result from continuing operations would decline from EUR 980 million to EUR 900 million, with similar reductions in 2024 and 2023. Aegon’s UK asset management activities remain within the group, and Aegon UK will be treated as held for sale and discontinued operations in 1H 2026 reporting. The transaction is expected to close around the end of 2026, subject to customary conditions and regulatory approvals.

Insights

Aegon models a major UK divestment, shrinking balance sheet but boosting equity.

The transaction would remove Aegon UK’s large insurance and investment contract books, cutting total assets from EUR 317,233 million to EUR 192,709 million. In exchange, Aegon would receive GBP 750 million cash and Standard Life shares valued at EUR 1,529 million.

Pro forma 2025 net result from continuing operations falls from EUR 980 million to EUR 900 million, showing Aegon UK’s earnings contribution. However, shareholders’ equity rises by EUR 1,119 million, reflecting a valuation uplift versus Aegon UK’s carrying amount of EUR 1,234 million.

The deal would leave Aegon with a smaller, more capital-light profile focused on remaining operations, while retaining strategic exposure to the UK via a 15.3% stake in Standard Life and ongoing asset management activities. Actual impact will depend on regulatory approvals and final closing terms around the end of 2026.

Discontinued operations are parts of a company that it has decided to sell or shut down, and no longer plans to run in the future. This matters to investors because it helps them understand which parts of the business are ongoing and which are being phased out, providing a clearer picture of the company’s current performance and future prospects. Think of it like a store closing a department—it no longer contributes to sales or profits.

"The assets and liabilities of Aegon UK will be classified... as held for sale."
An asset or a group of assets classified as 'held for sale' is one the company intends to sell rather than keep using, and management has committed to that plan with an active effort to find a buyer. Investors care because these items are removed from ongoing operating results and valued differently, offering a clearer view of the business’s continuing performance—think of it like marking a piece of furniture for the garage sale rather than counting it as part of your regular household setup.

proposed sale of the Aegon UK plc

As of December 31, 2025 and for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023

Introductory paragraph

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information presented below illustrates the financial impact on Aegon Ltd.’s (Aegon) consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2025 and consolidated income statements for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 of the proposed sale of Aegon UK plc (“Aegon UK”) containing the UK insurance and pensions operations to Standard Life Plc (“Standard Life”), a publicly traded company on the London stock exchange, that was announced on April 15, 2026. In connection with such sale, Aegon will receive GBP 750 million in gross cash proceeds and a 15.3% shareholding in Standard Life ordinary shares, with associated governance rights. Any remittances taken out of Aegon UK between the signing and closing of the transaction will be deducted from the GBP 750 million cash amount. Aegon’s asset management activities in the UK will remain part of Aegon’s global asset manager and will be an important asset management partner for the new combined business.

The transaction is expected to close around the end of 2026, subject to customary conditions, including regulatory approvals. The assets and liabilities of Aegon UK will be classified, for purposes of Aegon’s 1H 2026 consolidated financial statements, as held for sale. Related result will be presented as results from discontinued operations.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information below complies with Article 11 of Regulation S-X and illustrates the impact of the proposed sale of Aegon UK on Aegon’s consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2025 and Aegon’s consolidated income statements for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position has been prepared as if the sale had been consummated as of December 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements have been prepared as if the sale had been consummated as of January 1 of the respective years.

Historical financial information contains Aegon Ltd.’s audited consolidated financial information as presented in the Annual Report on Form 20-F 2025. The pro forma adjustments represent the financial impact of the proposed sale as described above.

In each case, the pro forma data financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as an indication of the financial condition or the operating results that would have been achieved if the Sale had taken place on the specified dates.
