Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Klarna Group plc has called its 2026 Annual General Meeting for June 22, 2026 as a hybrid in‑person and virtual event, asking shareholders to approve the 2025 accounts, a new directors’ remuneration report and policy, and the re‑appointment of four Class A directors. The board also seeks a substantial share allotment authority with a nominal limit of US$378,618.11 and a matching disapplication of pre‑emption rights through the 2030 AGM, correcting a 2025 drafting error, plus authority for limited political donations up to £200,000. Alongside the AGM materials, Klarna highlights 2025 operating momentum: GMV reached $127,862 million, up 22%, active consumers grew to 118 million, and transaction margin dollars were $1,238 million, supported by low credit losses of 0.63% of GMV and an average consumer balance of $124.

Insights

Klarna pairs strong 2025 volume growth with wide capital-issuance authority requests at its first NYSE-era AGM.

Klarna Group plc is combining routine AGM business with notable capital-structure flexibility. Shareholders are asked to approve a new section 551 authority to allot up to US$378,618.11 in nominal share capital, described as roughly ten times current issued ordinary share capital, and to disapply pre-emption rights through the 2030 AGM.

These authorities are framed as restoring terms agreed in March 2025 after a notice drafting error at the June 2025 AGM. While this aligns with prior shareholder approvals, it leaves the board with considerable headroom for equity issuance in connection with commercial partnerships or other strategic moves, and any actual use would be visible only in future disclosures.

Operationally, 2025 metrics show scale and credit discipline. GMV rose 22% to $127,862 million, active consumers reached 118 million (up 27%), and transaction margin dollars were $1,238 million. Credit losses at 0.63% of GMV and 97% of transactions being interest‑free underline the low-ticket, short-duration model, while ARPAC eased to $29 as Stocard users were folded in.

Key Terms

Gross Merchandise Volume, ARPAC, pre-emption rights, like-for-like basis, +2 more

6 terms

Gross Merchandise Volume financial

"We define GMV, measured for a period, as the total monetary value of all completed purchases on our network in that period"

Gross merchandise volume is the total dollar value of all goods and services sold through a sales platform or marketplace during a given period, measured before subtracting fees, returns, discounts or other adjustments. Investors use it to gauge the size and momentum of a business—like counting every dollar that passes through a busy market to assess demand—but it is not the same as company revenue or profit since the operator typically retains only a portion.

ARPAC financial

"We define ARPAC as our total revenue divided by the number of active Klarna consumers over the period"

pre-emption rights regulatory

"Resolution 12: Disapplication of pre-emption rights"

A shareholder’s right to be offered new shares before they are sold to outsiders, allowing existing owners to buy enough to keep their ownership percentage. Think of it like being offered the first slice of a pie so your share doesn’t shrink; it matters to investors because it protects voting power and economic value from being diluted when a company issues more stock, and it can affect how easy or costly fundraising is.

like-for-like basis financial

"Year-over-year change on a like-for-like basis* (in %) is calculated by adjusting the relevant metric"

Like-for-like basis measures performance by comparing the same set of assets, stores or operations across periods while excluding changes such as acquisitions, disposals, or new openings and closures. Investors use it to reveal underlying growth or decline without one-time or structural changes skewing results—like comparing the temperature of the same room month to month rather than averaging in a new room—to assess true operational momentum.

Directors’ Remuneration Policy financial

"The DRP has been prepared by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee and sets out the framework within which all directors of the Company will be paid"

hybrid meeting regulatory

"We have therefore chosen to hold this year's AGM as a hybrid meeting, combining a physical meeting in London with a simultaneous electronic meeting"

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom Chairman’s Letter 3 Dear Shareholder, Last September, Klarna rang the opening bell on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). It was one of the largest European technology Initial Public Offerings in the past decade and it marked the beginning of a new chapter for a company that has spent two decades reimagining how people pay, shop and manage their money. I am writing to invite you to the 2026 Annual General Meeting of Klarna Group plc (the “AGM”), our first AGM as a company listed on the NYSE. This is more than a governance formality: it is an opportunity for us to report to you on what we have built, where we are headed and how the Board intends to steward the Company on your behalf. Klarna today serves over 119 million active consumers and more than 1,075,000 merchant partners across 26 markets around the world. Since the IPO, the business has continued to grow. None of this would be possible without the support of our shareholders, those of you who backed Klarna before the IPO and those of you who have joined us since. The Board is focused on ensuring that the Company continues to earn your support. Your AGM The AGM will be held at the offices of Freshfields LLP, 100 Bishopsgate, London EC2P 2SR on Monday 22 June 2026 at 3.00 p.m. (BST) / 10.00 a.m. (ET), and will also be accessible virtually via http://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/KLAR2026. As a company incorporated in the United Kingdom and listed on the NYSE, our shareholder base spans multiple time zones and geographies. We have therefore chosen to hold this year's AGM as a hybrid meeting, combining a physical meeting in London with a simultaneous electronic meeting, reflecting our commitment to using technology to remove barriers to shareholder engagement, regardless of where our shareholders are located. Further details on how to access and participate electronically are set out at paragraph 4 of Part IV (General Notes) of this Notice. Directors: Sir Michael J. Moritz KBE Roger W. Ferguson, Jr. Lise Kaae Omid Kordestani Niclas Neglén Andrew Reed Sebastian Siemiatkowski Sarah Smith Mateusz Staniszewski Markus Villig Part I

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom Business of the AGM The formal Notice of AGM (the “Notice”) and the resolutions to be proposed are set out in Part II (Notice of Annual General Meeting) of this document along with explanatory notes set out at Part III (Explanatory Notes to the Resolutions). I encourage all shareholders to read these carefully. In addition, I draw the attention of shareholders to the following: ● Directors’ Remuneration - Report and Policy: Resolutions 2 and 3 put the Directors' Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 December 2025 (“the DRR”) and the Directors' Remuneration Policy (“DRP”) to shareholders for approval. The DRP has been prepared by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee and sets out the framework within which all directors of the Company will be paid for the next three years. The policy is designed to: o Attract and retain world-class talent in the fiercely competitive global technology and financial services markets in which Klarna operates; o Align executive reward with long-term shareholder value creation through a compensation structure that is heavily weighted towards equity; o Reflect Klarna’s US-benchmarked competitive positioning - consistent with our NYSE listing; and o Maintain the governance standards expected of a global regulated financial institution under Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority consolidated supervision. The DRR (and the DRP contained within it) has been circulated to shareholders with this Notice and I encourage all shareholders to review it in detail. Please note that the DRR and DRP tabled for approval pursuant to Resolutions 2 and 3 supersede the directors' remuneration report contained in the Annual Report and Accounts. ● Re-appointment of ‘Class A’ Directors: Resolutions 6 to 9 seek your approval to re-appoint the four Directors whose terms of office expire at the AGM in accordance with the Articles (Niclas Neglén, Andrew Reed, Mateusz Staniszewski and Markus Villig). Each was designated as a ‘Class A’ Director at the time of the Company's IPO and is now retiring by rotation and offering himself for re-appointment. If passed, each Director will hold office for a term ending at the conclusion of the Company's third annual general meeting following their re-appointment. ● Share Allotment Authority and Pre-Emption Disapplication: Resolutions 11 and 12 are corrective resolutions that I want to address directly. ○ Prior to the IPO, the Company's shareholders approved a general allotment authority at the March 2025 General Meeting as part of a package of terms agreed in connection with the IPO. The amount and duration of these authorities, equal to ten times the Company’s issued share capital for a period of five years, reflected the need to adequately incentivise landmark commercial partnerships at the scale and speed the Company's business model requires. ○ Due to a drafting error in the notice of the June 2025 Annual General Meeting, these authorities were not carried over on the intended terms. The explanatory notes accompanying the June 2025 Annual General Meeting resolutions made clear that the sole purpose of the substitution made at that meeting was to correct the nominal amount of the shares subject to the allotment authority following the share sub-division of our ordinary share capital that was carried out in March 2025. No change to the duration of the authority was contemplated. Resolutions 11 and 12 seek to correct this drafting error by restoring the authority on substantially the same terms as originally agreed at the March 2025 General Meeting (as adjusted to reflect the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at the Last Practicable Date) and consistent with the principles upon which the shareholders granted such approval, with the duration of such authorities reduced by one year to reflect the time that has elapsed since the June 2025 Annual General Meeting. Full details are set out in the explanatory notes to Resolutions 11 and 12. 4

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 5 Your Vote Matters Whether or not you plan to attend the AGM either in-person or electronically, please complete and submit a proxy form in accordance with the instructions printed on the enclosed proxy form or otherwise submit voting instructions as detailed at paragraph 7 of Part IV (General Notes) of this Notice. To be valid, completed proxy forms or voting instructions must be received no later than 11.59 p.m. (ET) on 18 June 2026 / 4.59 a.m. (BST) on 19 June 2026, being not more than 48 hours (excluding any part of a day that is not a working day) before the time the AGM is held. Please note that specific attendance and voting arrangements may vary depending on how you hold your shares, securities or other interests in the Company. More detailed instructions are set out in Part IV (General Notes) of this Notice and a summary of the key dates and timelines relating to the AGM is set out in Part V (Key dates and timings). Recommendation The Directors consider that all the proposed resolutions set out in the Notice are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Directors unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of each of them, as all of the Directors that hold shares will do in respect of their own beneficial holdings. Looking ahead Klarna was founded on the belief that banking doesn’t have to be boring, payments don’t have to be painful, and consumers deserve better. Twenty years on, that conviction is stronger than ever. We are building the financial operating system for a new generation, powered by AI, designed around the consumer, and trusted by the world’s best retailers. As your Board, our job is to ensure that the governance, capital structure and leadership team are in place to deliver on that ambition. The resolutions before you at this AGM are designed to do exactly that. All shareholder communications, including this Notice, a copy of the Company’s annual report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2025, and the DRR (including the DRP contained within it) are available at investors.klarna.com/governance/General-Meetings. I look forward to welcoming you, in-person or online, on 22 June 2026. Yours faithfully, Sir Michael J. Moritz KBE Chairman 27 May 2026 5

By order of the Board Boudien Moerman Company Secretary & Chief Legal Officer Klarna Group plc 27 May 2026 9 Special Resolutions 9

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 10 The notes on the following pages explain the proposed Resolutions. In accordance with article 150.2 of the Articles, voting on all Resolutions at the AGM will be conducted by way of a poll, rather than on a show of hands. Resolutions 1 to 11 are proposed as ordinary resolutions. This means that for each of those Resolutions to be passed by shareholders on a poll, more than half of the votes cast must be in favour of the Resolution. Resolution 12 is proposed as a special resolution. This means that for the Resolution to be passed by shareholders on a poll, at least three-quarters of the votes cast must be in favour of the Resolution. Explanatory Notes to the Resolutions Part III

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 11 Resolution 1: Adoption of report and accounts For each financial year, the Directors must present the annual accounts, the strategic report, the directors’ report and the auditors’ report to shareholders at the AGM. The reports referred to in the previous sentence form part of the Annual Report and Accounts, a copy of which can be found at investors.klarna.com/governance/General-Meetings. Please note that whilst the directors' remuneration report contained in the Annual Report and Accounts forms part of the report and accounts being presented to shareholders under this Resolution, it has been superseded by a standalone directors' remuneration report which has been prepared and circulated to shareholders separately with this Notice and is tabled for approval pursuant to Resolutions 2 and 3 below. Resolutions 2 and 3: Approval of Directors’ Remuneration Report and Directors’ Remuneration Policy The directors’ remuneration report (“DRR”), a copy of which has been circulated to shareholders on the date of this Notice and which is also available on the Company’s website at investors.klarna.com/governance/General-Meetings, gives details of the Directors’ remuneration for the year ended 31 December 2025. Ernst & Young LLP, the Company’s auditors, have audited those parts of the DRR that are required to be audited. The directors’ remuneration policy (“DRP”), which can be found on pages 4 to 15 of the DRR, sets out the Company’s proposed policy on directors’ remuneration. The DRP is being tabled for approval at this AGM as the Company was a ‘quoted company’ for the purposes of the Act for the financial year ended 31 December 2025. Please note that the DRR that is tabled for approval at this AGM and circulated to shareholders with this Notice, including the DRP set out within it, has been prepared as a standalone document for this AGM and supersedes the directors’ remuneration report contained in the Annual Report and Accounts, which should be disregarded for the purposes of Resolutions 2 and 3. The Board considers that appropriate executive remuneration plays a vital part in helping to achieve the Company’s overall objectives and that, as a result of the policies and procedures as detailed in the DRR, we have and will continue to have and attract high-quality directors. Accordingly, and in accordance with sections 439 and 439A of the Act respectively, shareholders will be invited to approve the DRR and separately the DRP. The vote on the DRR is advisory and non-binding in nature and the directors’ entitlement to receive remuneration is not conditional on it. Payments made or promised to directors will not have to be repaid, reduced or withheld in the event that this Resolution is not passed. Although non-binding, our Board and the Remuneration and Nomination Committee will review and consider the voting results when making future decisions regarding our directors’ remuneration. In contrast, the vote on the DRP is binding in nature in that the Company may not make a remuneration payment or payment for loss of office to a person who is, is to be, or has been, a director of the Company unless that payment is consistent with the approved DRP, or has otherwise been approved by a resolution of its shareholders. If Resolution 3 is passed, the DRP will take effect from the date on which the Resolution is passed and will remain valid until replaced by a new or amended policy. In accordance with the Act, a remuneration policy will be put to shareholders again no later than the annual general meeting in 2029. Resolutions 4 and 5: Re-appointment of auditors and auditors’ remuneration The auditors of a company must be re-appointed at each general meeting at which accounts are laid. Resolution 4 proposes the re-appointment of the existing auditors, Ernst & Young LLP, until the conclusion of the next general meeting of the Company at which accounts are laid. On the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the Board proposes that Ernst & Young LLP be re-appointed as the Company’s auditor. The Audit Committee has confirmed to the Board that its recommendation is 11

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 12 free from third-party influence and that no restrictive contractual provisions have been imposed on the Company limiting the choice of auditor. Ernst & Young LLP have indicated their willingness to continue in office. The Audit Committee will continue to consider the re-appointment of the external auditors each year before making a recommendation to the Board. Resolution 5 gives authority to the Audit Committee to determine the auditors’ remuneration. The Act requires the auditor’s remuneration to be fixed by ordinary resolution of the shareholders or in such manner as the shareholders may, by ordinary resolution, determine. Details of the remuneration paid to the auditors for the year ended 31 December 2025 (including non-audit fees) are set out at Note 26 on page 140 of the Annual Report and Accounts, a copy of which is available via investors.klarna.com/governance/General-Meetings. Resolutions 6 to 9 (inclusive): Re-appointment of Directors who are retiring under the Articles Resolutions 6 to 9 relate to the re-appointment of certain Directors by shareholders. Article 38.1 of the Articles requires that at this AGM (being the first annual general meeting held by the Company following the time the Articles became effective), the term of office of the ‘Class A’ Directors shall expire and that those Directors shall be re-appointed as the ‘Class A’ Directors at the AGM, to hold office for a term ending upon the conclusion of the third annual general meeting of the Company following their re-appointment. In connection with the IPO, Niclas Neglén, Andrew Reed, Mateusz Staniszewski and Markus Villig were designated as the ‘Class A’ Directors for the purposes of the Articles. Each of these Directors is retiring by rotation in accordance with the Articles and is offering himself for re-appointment. Resolutions 6 to 9 seek your approval to re-appoint these persons as Directors of the Company. If the Resolutions are passed, the re-appointment of the Directors will take effect at the conclusion of the meeting. Each of the Directors seeking re-appointment brings a wide range of skills, experience and knowledge to the Board which supports the Company’s strategy. This mix of expertise and backgrounds makes a major contribution to the functioning of the Board and its committees and the long-term sustainable success of the Company. Accordingly, it is appropriate that each of them continues to serve as a Director. Biographical details for each of these Directors are provided below. The Board considers that each of the Directors standing for re-appointment continues to make an effective and valuable contribution to the Company and demonstrates commitment to their role. Accordingly, the Board unanimously recommends the re-appointment of each of these Directors. 12

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom Resolution 10: Authority to make political donations It is not proposed or intended to alter the Company’s policy of not making political donations, within the normal meaning of that expression. However, it may be that some of the Company’s activities may fall within the potentially wide definition of a political donation in the Act and, without the necessary authorisation, the Company’s ability to communicate its views effectively to political audiences and to relevant interest groups could be inhibited. Such activities may include briefings at receptions or conferences – when the Company seeks to communicate its views on issues vital to its business interests. Accordingly, the Directors believe that the authority contained in this Resolution is necessary to allow it to fund activities which it is in the interests of shareholders to support. The authority will enable the Company and its subsidiaries to be sure that they do not, because of any uncertainty as to the bodies or the activities covered by the Act, unintentionally commit a technical breach of the Act. Any expenditure which may be incurred under authority of this Resolution will be disclosed in next year’s annual report. Resolution 11: Authority to allot shares Under section 551 of the Act, the Directors may only allot shares or grant rights to subscribe for, or convert any security into, shares (unless pursuant to an employees’ share scheme) if authorised to do so by shareholders. The two most recent section 551 authorities were granted by resolutions of the Company at the previous annual general meeting of the Company duly convened and held on 30 June 2025 (the “June 2025 Annual General Meeting”): (a) the first, a general authority to allot shares, expired immediately prior to the IPO (which appeared as resolution 15 in the notice to the June 2025 Annual General Meeting and was entitled ‘Resolution 15: Directors’ authority to allot shares’); and (b) the second, an authority granted in connection with the IPO in substitution for, and to the exclusion of, the section 551 authority passed at the March 2025 General Meeting, expires at the conclusion of this AGM (which appeared as resolution 16 in the notice to the June 2025 Annual General Meeting and was entitled ‘Resolution 16: Directors’ authority to allot shares in connection with the initial public offering of the Company’ (the “June 2025 IPO Allotment Authority”)). All other previous section 551 authorities have either been exhausted, are expired or will be revoked by this Resolution 11 if it is passed at the AGM, including the authority obtained at the March 2025 General Meeting which appeared as resolution 8 in the notice of the March 2025 General Meeting and was entitled ‘Resolution 8: ordinary resolution to grant directors authority to allot shares in connection with commercial partner arrangements’. Accordingly, it is necessary to seek approval of a new general section 551 authority. Resolution 11 gives the Directors a new section 551 authority starting from the date of this AGM. The Resolution will be proposed as an ordinary resolution. If the Resolution is passed, the authority will expire at the conclusion of the fourth annual general meeting of the Company after the date on which this Resolution is passed which is one year less than the maximum permitted by the Act. The Resolution authorises the Directors to allot shares, and grant rights to subscribe for, or convert any security into, shares, up to a maximum nominal amount of US$378,618.11. The Directors are seeking this amount and duration of authority in order to restore on substantially the same terms the general allotment authority originally granted by shareholders at the March 2025 General Meeting, which was not carried forward at the June 2025 Annual General Meeting due to a drafting error in the notice to the June 2025 Annual General Meeting whereby the authority was only requested for a period of one year until the conclusion of this AGM instead of the five years originally 14 14

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 15 approved by shareholders at the March 2025 General Meeting (and which the Company intended to carry over at the June 2025 Annual General Meeting). The amount and duration of that authority (an amount equal to ten times the Company's issued share capital, for a duration of five years) was approved by shareholders at the March 2025 General Meeting. The authority sought by Resolution 11 intends to correct the drafting error contained in the June 2025 IPO Allotment Authority on substantially the same terms and is for an amount that is consistent with the principles upon which the allotment authority was approved by shareholders at the March 2025 General Meeting (being equal to ten times the Company’s issued ordinary share capital, as adjusted to reflect the number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding as at the Last Practicable Date), with the duration reduced by one year (from five years to four years) to reflect the time that has elapsed since the June 2025 IPO Allotment Authority was granted. Restoring this authority will give the Company the flexibility to continue to conduct its business effectively, ensuring the Company can maintain financial agility and strategic optionality which the Directors believe is in the best interests of the Company and the shareholders as a whole. If Resolution 11 is passed, this allotment authority will expire at the conclusion of the Company’s annual general meeting in 2030, aligning with when the allotment authority originally granted by shareholders at the March 2025 General Meeting was due to expire (but which was inadvertently shortened due to the drafting error contained in the June 2025 IPO Allotment Authority). The Company did not hold any interests in its shares as treasury shares as at the Last Practicable Date. Resolution 12: Disapplication of pre-emption rights If the Directors wish to allot shares, or grant rights to subscribe for, or convert securities into, shares, or sell treasury shares, for cash (unless pursuant to an employees’ share scheme), they must first offer them to existing shareholders in proportion to their holdings. There may be occasions when the Directors need the flexibility to finance business opportunities by allotting shares without a pre-emptive offer to existing shareholders, and this can be done if the shareholders have first given a waiver of their pre-emption rights. The requirement to first offer shares to existing shareholders is an additional step not generally required when companies domiciled in the United States are issuing securities. The Board believes that it is important for the Company to retain the flexibility to issue shares for cash should the Directors determine it is necessary or advisable and in the best interests of shareholders, without incurring the costs or delays associated with calling a special meeting and preparing and circulating shareholder materials, to disapply pre-emption rights in connection with specific allotments of shares. Resolution 12, therefore, asks shareholders to grant this waiver and it will be proposed as a special resolution. Should Resolution 12 be passed, if the Directors allot or issue shares pursuant to the authority provided by Resolution 11, they will not be required to first offer those shares to existing shareholders on a pre-emptive basis. If the Resolution is passed, the authority will expire at the conclusion of the Company’s annual general meeting in 2030, being the fourth annual general meeting of the Company after the date on which this Resolution is passed. This position reflects the approach approved by shareholders at the March 2025 General Meeting. The disapplication of pre-emption rights sought under this Resolution corresponds to the authority to allot sought under Resolution 11, and seeks to restore the position reached at the March 2025 General Meeting for the same reasons and on a basis that is consistent with the principles on which the shareholders approved the disapplication authority at the March 2025 General Meeting, as set out in the explanatory notes to Resolution 11.

(as the nominee and legal holder of the ordinary shares held through DTC on behalf of DTC Beneficial Holders) will issue an omnibus legal proxy enabling your bank, broker or nominee to vote on your behalf at the AGM.

You are encouraged to send a scanned copy of your legal proxy to the Company Secretary at agm@klarna.com no later than 48 hours before the AGM so that your legal proxy can be validated ahead of time, in order to expedite your admission to the meeting. Without a valid legal proxy from your bank, broker or nominee, DTC Beneficial Holders will be able to attend and raise questions at the physical meeting but will be unable to vote in person. Alternatively, DTC Beneficial Holders (or their banks, brokers or nominees) can vote at the electronic meeting or in advance of the AGM by following the instructions set out at paragraphs 4 and 7 below respectively. 3.

Without a control number, you may access the broadcast as a ‘guest’ but will be unable to post questions or vote via the online platform. You can access http://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/KLAR2026 using most common internet browsers, such as Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, on a PC, laptop or other internet-enabled device such as a tablet or smartphone.

Additional information for DTC Beneficial Holders DTC Beneficial Holders that do not have a 16-digit control number (required to access the live broadcast) are requested to reach out to their bank, broker or nominee in order to locate your control number. Guest attendance If you do not have a 16-digit control number for any reason, you may access the virtual meeting webcast and view the meeting as a ‘guest’ via the link above, but will be unable to raise questions or vote when attending as a ‘guest’. 5. Entitlement to attend and vote The right to attend and vote at the AGM is determined by reference to the relevant register on which your shares or other interests in the Company are recorded, as set out in further detail below. Registered Shareholders In accordance with article 132 of the Articles, only a Registered Shareholder entered in the Share Register at 10.00 a.m. (ET) / 3.00 p.m. (BST) on 12 June 2026 (the “Record Date”) is entitled to attend and vote at the meeting and a Registered Shareholder may vote in respect of the number of ordinary shares and/or Class B Shares registered in its name at that time. Changes to the entries in the Share Register after that time shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the AGM. The voting rights of any Depositary Receipts held by a Registered Shareholder will be determined as at the Record Date as set out below for Depositary Receipt Holders. DTC Beneficial Holders Legal title to the ordinary shares beneficially owned by DTC Beneficial Holders is held by Cede & Co. as nominee. A DTC Beneficial Holder whose bank, broker or nominee (i) holds ordinary shares through DTC as at the Record Date and (ii) is entitled to attend and vote at the AGM pursuant to the omnibus legal proxy issued by Cede & Co. may attend and vote at the meeting pursuant to a legal proxy or 16-digit control number obtained from such DTC Beneficial Holder’s bank, broker or nominee in respect of the number of ordinary shares beneficially owned by such DTC Beneficial Holder. To obtain a legal proxy and/or a 16-digit control number, please contact your bank, broker or nominee directly. Without a valid legal proxy from your bank, broker or nominee, DTC Beneficial Holders will be unable to vote in person at the AGM and your bank, broker or nominee is required to vote on your behalf. Depositary Receipt Holders Each Depositary Receipt represents a beneficial interest in an ordinary share of the Company. Depositary Receipts are held by the Depositary Nominee (as the legal owner of the underlying ordinary shares) and are issued by the CPU Depositary (acting in its capacity as depositary) in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agreement. A Depositary Receipt Holder entered in the central register of Depositary Receipt Holders maintained by the CPU Depositary as at the Record Date may attend and vote in respect of the number of Depositary Receipts they hold at that time. Changes to the entries in the central register of Depositary Receipt Holders maintained by the CPU Depositary after that time shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any Depositary Receipt Holder to vote in advance of the meeting.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 19 Prior to the AGM, the Depositary Nominee will provide and execute an omnibus Letter of Representation pursuant to which the Depositary Nominee will relinquish its voting rights in respect of all ordinary shares held in the Depositary Nominee’s name in favour of the Depositary Receipt Holders which hold Depositary Receipts as at the Record Date. Further to the Board’s discretion provided under article 104.5 of the Articles, this will enable each Depositary Receipt Holder to vote on the ordinary shares underlying its Depositary Receipts directly as if it was a Registered Shareholder of such ordinary shares. The voting rights of any Class B Shares held by a Depositary Receipt Holder will be determined as at the Record Date as set out above for Registered Shareholders. 6. Voting Shareholders will be able to vote in one of three ways for each of the Resolutions: ‘For’, ‘Against’ or ‘Abstain’. An abstention is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes for and against a Resolution. In accordance with article 150.2 of the Articles, all Resolutions will be put to a poll vote, rather than a show of hands. This means that, in accordance with article 58 of the Articles, each shareholder has one vote for every ordinary share and ten votes for each Class B Share they hold, and each Depositary Receipt Holder has one vote for each Depositary Receipt they hold, in each case as at the Record Date. No Class C Shares are in issue as at the Record Date. Any Deferred Shares in issue as at the Record Date do not carry any voting rights in accordance with article 58.6(a) of the Articles. The votes of all shareholders who submit valid proxy appointments or voting instructions in advance of the meeting (as detailed below) are counted, even if the shareholder does not participate in the meeting. Voting on the day of the AGM will take place once the Chairman declares the poll open. Shareholders attending the meeting in person will receive a voting card and will be asked to check a box to exercise a vote ‘For’, ‘Against’ or ‘Abstain’ for each Resolution. Subject to any additional specific requirements (as set out in this Part IV (General Notes) to this Notice) a shareholder attending the meeting electronically can exercise their votes for each Resolution by following the instructions on the platform available at http://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/KLAR2026. 7. Voting in advance of the meeting or appointing a proxy If you wish to vote in advance of the AGM, you can either submit a voting instruction directly to Broadridge online or by telephone or you can appoint a proxy to vote at the meeting on your behalf. Providing voting instructions to Broadridge Registered Shareholders and Depositary Receipt Holders may submit voting instructions directly in advance of the AGM, as follows: ● By Internet: You can vote over the internet at www.ProxyVote.com by following the instructions in the Notice or, if you received your proxy form by post, by following the instructions on the proxy form. You will need to enter your control number, which is the 16-digit number located in a box on your proxy form or otherwise provided to you by Broadridge. We encourage you to vote by internet even if you received your proxy form by post. Information contained on the www.ProxyVote.com website is not incorporated by reference into this Notice or any other report we file with the SEC. ● By Telephone: You may vote and submit your proxy by calling Broadridge toll-free on 1-800-690-6903 and providing your control number. Please have your proxy form or control number to hand when voting by telephone. If calling from outside the United States, you will be required to add the international access code (which in most countries is 00): 00-1-800-690-6903. Callers outside of the United States should note that this number may not be toll-free and standard international calling rates may apply.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 20 20 In all cases, to be valid your voting instruction (whether made online at www.ProxyVote.com or by telephone) must be received by Broadridge no later than 11.59 p.m. (ET) on 18 June 2026 / 4.59 a.m. (BST) on 19 June 2026 (or if the meeting is adjourned, such other date as is communicated to you). Appointing a proxy to vote on your behalf at the meeting We encourage you to vote directly online where possible by following the instructions above. In accordance with the Act and article 158 of the Articles, Registered Shareholders and Depositary Receipt Holders are entitled to appoint a proxy to exercise all or any of their rights to attend and to raise questions and vote on their behalf at the AGM. A Registered Shareholder or Depositary Receipt Holder may appoint more than one proxy in relation to the AGM provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares to be voted on by that Registered Shareholder and/or Depositary Receipt Holder. A paper proxy form which may be used to make such appointments and give proxy instructions has been sent to all Registered Shareholders and Depositary Receipt Holders (except those that have elected to receive materials from the Company electronically). If you do not have a paper proxy form and believe that you should have received one, or if you require additional forms, please contact the Company Secretary at agm@klarna.com. Please mark, date, sign and return the proxy form in the pre-paid postage envelope provided or by otherwise returning it to Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717. To be valid, your completed proxy form must be received by Broadridge at the address above no later than 11.59 p.m. (ET) on 18 June 2026 / 4.59 a.m. (BST) on 19 June 2026 (or if the meeting is adjourned, such other date as is communicated to you). A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company, but the proxy must attend the AGM, whether in-person or electronically via http://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/KLAR2026, to represent you. The appointment of a proxy will not preclude a shareholder from attending and voting in-person at the meeting or electronically via http://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/KLAR2026 where that shareholder is otherwise entitled to attend and vote at the meeting. If you are voting via the paper proxy form, you are strongly encouraged to appoint the Chairman of the AGM as your proxy. This means that the Chairman of the AGM will be able to vote on the day on your behalf, in accordance with your instructions. If the Chairman of the meeting is given discretion as to how to vote, they will vote in favour of each of the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM. If you wish your proxy to speak on your behalf at the AGM, you will need to appoint your own choice of proxy (not the Chairman of the meeting) and give your instructions directly to them. Amending a voting instruction or proxy appointment A Registered Shareholder or Depositary Receipt Holder who has, in advance of the AGM, submitted a voting instruction or appointed a proxy to vote on their behalf may revoke it at any time before it is exercised at the AGM by: ● attending the AGM and voting in person or electronically via http://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/KLAR2026; ● voting again by the internet or by telephone in accordance with the instructions above (only the last vote cast by each shareholder will be counted), provided that the shareholder does so before 11.59 p.m. (ET) on 18 June 2026 / 4.59 a.m. (BST) on 19 June 2026; ● delivering a written notice to Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717, bearing a date later than that indicated on the paper proxy form or the date you voted by internet or telephone, but prior to 11.59 p.m. (ET) on 18 June 2026 / 4.59 a.m. (BST) on 19 June 2026, stating that the proxy is revoked; or

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 21 21 ● signing and delivering a subsequently dated proxy form to Broadridge at the address above prior to 11.59 p.m. (ET) on 18 June 2026 / 4.59 a.m. (BST) on 19 June 2026. Additional information for DTC Beneficial Holders For DTC Beneficial Holders who have not obtained a separate legal proxy from your bank, broker or nominee to attend and vote at the AGM, your broker, bank or nominee is required to vote on your behalf pursuant to the omnibus legal proxy issued by Cede & Co. (as the nominee and legal holder of the ordinary shares held through DTC on behalf of DTC Beneficial Holders). To instruct your broker, bank or nominee how to vote, you should follow the voting instructions provided to you by your broker, bank or nominee. If you do not provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or nominee, your broker will be unable to vote your shares on any of the Resolutions - see “Shares Held in Street Name” below. Your broker, bank or nominee must submit the completed paper proxy form or otherwise provide a voting instruction to Broadridge no later than 11.59 p.m. (ET) on 18 June 2026 / 4.59 a.m. (BST) on 19 June 2026 (or if the meeting is adjourned, such other date as is communicated to you). Votes submitted on behalf of or by DTC Beneficial Holders may also be revoked in accordance with the instructions above set out for Registered Shareholders and Depositary Receipt Holders. Please reach out to your broker, bank or nominee directly if you have not received all the materials referenced in this Notice (including a paper proxy form), if you have misplaced your control number or if you need to discuss any specific requirements or arrangements relating to voting instructions. Please note that your broker, bank or nominee may set its own deadline for receiving your voting instructions, which may be earlier than the deadline set out above. Shares Held in Street Name Current New York Stock Exchange rules allow brokers to vote shares on certain “routine” matters for which their customers do not provide voting instructions. If you are a DTC Beneficial Holder and own shares in street name through a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee, please note that none of the Resolutions to be voted on at this AGM as set out in Part II (Notice of Annual General Meeting) are “routine” proposals. This means your broker will be unable to vote your shares on any of the Resolutions if you do not instruct your broker how to vote. This is referred to as a “broker non-vote”. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the votes on any of the Resolutions. Holders of multiple classes of shares and/or Depositary Receipts If you hold multiple classes of shares and/or Depositary Receipts, Broadridge will provide you with a 16-digit “master” control number which will enable you to vote on your entire holding of shares, securities and/or Depositary Receipts at once. If you do not wish to cast all your votes in the same way (or if, for example, you wish to vote your shares of a certain class in one way and your Depositary Receipts the other way), please get in touch with the Company Secretary by email to agm@klarna.com by 5.00 p.m. (BST) / 12.00 p.m. (ET) on 17 June 2026, so that additional control numbers or proxy forms can be requested from Broadridge on your behalf. 8. Communications Any shareholder who has queries about their shares, voting, the AGM generally or who requires any other assistance should contact the Company Secretary at agm@klarna.com. Queries may subsequently be redirected to Broadridge or Computershare, as appropriate. You may not use any electronic address provided in this Notice or any related documents (including the form of proxy) to communicate with the Company for any purposes other than those expressly stated.

Corporate representatives Any corporation which is a Registered Shareholder can appoint one or more corporate representatives who may exercise on its behalf all of its powers, provided that if two or more representatives purport to vote in respect of the same shares: ● if they purport to exercise the power in the same way as each other, the power is treated as exercised in that way; and ● in other cases, the power is treated as not exercised. Please note that, under article 167 of the Articles, a director, the secretary or a person authorised by the secretary is entitled to require corporate representatives to produce a certified copy of the resolution granting the relevant body of the corporation authority to exercise powers on the corporation’s behalf before permitting the exercise of these powers. 11.

Where the Company is required to place a statement on a website under section 527 of the Act, it must forward the statement to the Company’s auditors not later than the time when it makes the statement available on the website. The business which may be dealt with at the AGM includes any statement that the Company has been required under section 527 of the Act to publish on a website.

These Notes should be read together with the Notice of Annual General Meeting (the "Notice").

This proxy form enables you to vote your entire holding of shares and/or Depositary Receipts in the Company. Ordinary shares and Depositary Receipts carry one vote each. Class B Shares carry ten votes each. Votes cast by Depositary Receipt Holders will be voted directly on the ordinary shares underlying the corresponding Depositary Receipts, pursuant to an omnibus Letter of Representation executed by the Depositary Nominee prior to the AGM. If you do not wish to cast all your votes in the same way, please get in touch with the Company Secretary by email to agm@klarna.com by 12:00 p.m. (ET) / 5:00 p.m. (BST) on 17 June 2026 so that additional control numbers or proxy forms can be requested from Broadridge on your behalf. 3.

Strategic Report Market Overview and Strategy About Klarna Klarna Group plc is the parent company of a global digital bank and flexible payments provider building the next-generation, AI-powered commerce network, with a mission to reimagine how consumers spend and save in their daily lives, helping them save time and money while reducing financial worry. We have built one of the largest commerce networks in the world, measured by the number of consumers and merchants, serving approximately 118 million active Klarna consumers and approximately 966 thousand merchants in 26 countries as of December 31, 2025, and facilitating $128 billion of GMV in the year ended December 31, 2025. Our flexible and personalized products, trusted consumer brand, global distribution, and proprietary scalable infrastructure form the foundation enabling us to become our consumers’ everyday spending and saving partner, available everywhere and for everything. Klarna offers consumers flexible and transparent ways to pay, save, and shop both online and offline, providing a range of products such as Pay Later, Pay in Full, and Fair Financing. Its proprietary, cloud-native, AI-powered platform underpins a scalable global infrastructure that supports merchants and consumers through direct integration at checkout, within the Klarna App, via the Klarna Card, and through partnerships with platforms such as Apple Pay and Google Pay. The Company’s growth has been underpinned by a strategic focus on innovation, consumer trust, and financial responsibility. In 2025, 97% of transactions conducted through Klarna’s network were interest-free. The average outstanding balance per consumer was only $124, reflecting the short-duration and low-ticket nature of our products. Klarna’s fairer products and unique credit underwriting process delivered industry-leading results with provision for credit losses at only 0.63% of GMV. Following a corporate reorganization completed in May 2024, Klarna Group plc, a public limited company incorporated in England and Wales, became the Group’s new parent company. The Group operates as a licensed bank in the EEA through Klarna Bank AB, enabling it to offer a range of consumer banking services and maintain a low-cost, stable deposit funding model. In September 2025, Klarna Group plc completed its initial public offering and its ordinary shares were admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "KLAR." Klarna’s strategy remains focused on driving long-term sustainable growth through continued expansion of its consumer and merchant network, scaling its AI capabilities, and deepening consumer engagement through digital financial services.

Management Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) The following table sets out our key performance indicators as of and for the periods indicated. We review these KPIs to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. As of, or for the Year Ended, December 31, 2025 2024 GMV (in $ millions) ................................................................................................................. 127,862 105,015 Year-over-year change (in %) ............................................................................................ 22 % 14 % Year-over-year change on a like-for-like basis* (in %) ................................................ 20 % 15 % Number of Active Klarna Consumers (in millions)1 ............................................................. 118 93 Year-over-year change (in %) ............................................................................................ 27 % 11 % ARPAC (in $)2 ........................................................................................................................... 29 30 Year-over-year change (in %) ............................................................................................

Note: Our key business metrics presented in the table above include transactions processed through KCO. Adjusted for the sale of KCO, our key business metrics equalled in the year ended December 31, 2024: (1) GMV: $102,455 million (16% year-over-year change); (2) ARPAC: $30 (15% year- over-year change); and (3) transaction margin dollars: $1,189 million (17% year-over-year change). The divestment of KCO does not affect the number of active Klarna consumers nor any fiscal period subsequent to the fourth quarter of 2024 when the sale of KCO was completed. *Year-over-year change on a like-for-like basis is calculated by adjusting the relevant metric for (1) the sale of KCO and (2) the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. The impact of foreign currency fluctuations is calculated by translating the reported amounts in the current period using the exchange rates in use during the comparative prior period. We present like-for-like changes in our metrics when one of the comparative periods is, or includes, the fourth quarter of 2024, the period in which the sale of KCO was finalized. Gross Merchandise Volume We define GMV, measured for a period, as the total monetary value of all completed purchases on our network in that period, excluding any additional fees (such as interest, reminder or other fees) and any subsequent actions (such as returns, settlements and disputes). GMV does not represent KLARNA GROUP PLC 3 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

revenue earned by us. However, GMV is a measure of the scale of our network and is a key driver of our revenue. GMV growth is driven by an increase in the number of merchants on our network that our consumers can transact with, the number of active Klarna consumers and the average spend of our consumers. While GMV is a key indicator of the payment volume of our network, it does not reflect all of the transactions that are enabled through our network. For example, a customer may purchase products from a merchant in response to an ad placed by that merchant in the Klarna app but not use a Klarna payment solution to complete the transaction. In that case, the transaction would not contribute to our GMV or generate merchant revenue, but would generate advertising revenue for us. In the year ended December 31, 2025, our GMV was $128 billion, which represented an increase of approximately 22% from 2024. We have observed a notable acceleration of our GMV growth in recent months, both in the United States and our more mature markets, driven by Klarna becoming, or on track to become, a default payment option with a growing number of PSPs, including JP Morgan Payments, Stripe, Nexi and Worldpay, as well as the continued expansion of our merchant relationships. We believe that such partnerships position us well to further expand our GMV globally. We generate GMV from two points of purchase: • At the merchant’s checkout, when a consumer chooses a Klarna payment option to purchase goods or services from a merchant on our network; and • Direct-to-consumer, when a consumer uses a Klarna-issued payment card—either the Klarna card or a one-time card—at any online or physical store that accepts Visa, irrespective of whether the merchant is on our network. The table below shows the breakdown of our GMV between these two points of purchase for the periods presented: KLARNA GROUP PLC 4 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 GMV Growth YoY 6% 21% 25% 32% Q1'25 Q2’25 Q3’25 Q4’25 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Number of Active Klarna Consumers We define active Klarna consumers as consumers who have made a purchase or a payment using a Klarna-branded product or logged into the Klarna app within the past 12 months. As a result, this metric represents consumers who have engaged in a revenue-generating activity in a relevant period, either by making a purchase or a payment using Klarna (therefore generating merchant and/ or interest revenue) or logging into the Klarna app (therefore generating advertising revenue). In the year ended December 31, 2025, the number of active Klarna consumers increased 28% year-over- year compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, reaching approximately 118 million, primarily driven by our growth in key markets, including the United States and the U.K., as well as the successful conversion of Stocard users into our active Klarna consumers. In the year ended December 31, 2025, on average, 46 million of our active Klarna consumers opened the Klarna app every month. The number of active Klarna consumers excludes consumers using Sofort (an online payments company acquired by us in 2014, operating primarily in Germany and consolidated into Klarna Bank in December 2024), Billpay (a German online payments company acquired by us in 2017), Pricerunner (a comparison price leader acquired by us in 2022) as well as consumers who have transacted through unbranded channels. We continuously work to better integrate our acquired businesses into our operations and network and, as a result, to transition their users that we have engaged with us over time into active Klarna consumers. For example, we recently transitioned Stocard users to the Klarna app. This migration integrated Stocard’s active users into Klarna’s ecosystem, enhancing their experience with loyalty card management and flexible payment options. The successful integration of Stocard users has significantly contributed to the recent growth in Klarna’s active consumer base, strengthening our position as a leading global payments and shopping platform.

Average Revenue per Active Consumer We define ARPAC as our total revenue divided by the number of active Klarna consumers over the period. We monitor our ARPAC to track the value we generate across all our active Klarna consumers in a given period. ARPAC is a key indicator of consumer success on the Klarna network because it quantifies the spending behavior and engagement of active Klarna consumers on our network over time. When we are successful in growing our active Klarna consumers and average spend per user, our ARPAC expands. Our ARPAC declined by 3% from 2024 to the year ended December 31, 2025. The year-over-year decrease in our ARPAC in the year ended December 31, 2025 was driven by the transition of our former Stocard customers into our network, which resulted in a significant increase in the number of our active Klarna consumers over a short period of time.. Blended ARPAC reflects the impact of 28% year-over-year consumer growth, as newly acquired consumers dilute ARPAC since they're earlier in their monetization lifecycle and contribute lower revenue initially. Cohort analysis indicates continued ARPAC expansion as consumers mature on the platform. ARPAC is driven by purchase frequency, AOV and take rate. Typically, purchase frequency, which is defined as the total number of transactions on our network over the past 12 months divided by the number of active Klarna consumers in the same period, increases as our market penetration and maturity grow. For example, in Sweden, where we launched in 2005, consumers transacted on average 33 times per year in the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to 32 times per year in 2024. In the United States, where the Klarna app launched in 2019, consumers transacted on average 6 times per year in the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to 5 times per year in 2024. We aim to further increase purchase frequency by expanding our network into new verticals and through various initiatives, including the Klarna card, our shopping browser extension and additional PSP integrations, in particular with MoRs, each of which increases the merchant adoption of our network and its relevance to consumers.

Expanding Purchase Frequency ________________ Note: The chart above refers to the year ended December 31, 2025 for Klarna. The “Years since launch” axis does not apply to the Klarna card or the typical U.S. credit card frequency data point. U.S. credit card use frequency based on data by Capital One. Purchase frequency is the primary driver of ARPAC growth. Typically, consumers transact more frequently the longer they are on our network, as they experience the benefits and increased value our network provides over time. There is also a correlation between the number of merchants using our network in a geography and the consumer purchase frequency in that geography, reflecting the network effects we have created.

New Cohort Purchase Frequency Accelerating Faster than Older Cohorts Note: Consumer cohorts are based on the date of first purchase on our network. Purchasing consumers refers to consumers who have made a purchase using a Klarna payment method. ARPAC generally increases the longer consumers have been using our network. In addition, as we have expanded, new cohorts typically have a higher starting point for average revenue per purchasing consumer resulting from a higher initial purchase frequency and feature usage. Transaction Margin Dollars We define transaction margin dollars as total revenue less total transaction costs, which consist of processing and servicing costs, provision for credit losses and funding costs. From 2024 to the year ended December 31, 2025, our transaction margin dollars grew 2% to $1,238 million from $1,217 million, while GMV grew 22% in 2025, reflecting mix and timing effects from the rapid expansion of Fair Financing. As Fair Financing scales, we provision expected credit losses upfront while revenue is recognized over subsequent quarters. In 2025, this drove an increase in provision for credit losses ($794 million vs. $495 million), creating near-term margin pressure. The result is deferred profitability, with growth in higher-duration Financing products weighing on current-year Transaction Margin Dollars. We expect the relative portion of Fair Financing products in our overall payment option mix to increase as we continue to expand the availability of our full suite of payment products across our growing merchant network, including at leading merchants in their respective categories, like Walmart. In line with IFRS accounting standards, we recognize a provision for credit losses at the time of each Fair Financing transaction, even though we will generate interest income on such transactions over the life of the loan. As a result of this provisioning process, we have seen a near- term negative impact to our transaction margin dollars in 2025 driven by increased provisions for credit losses as we continue to increase our GMV generated from Fair Financing. At the same time, our transaction margin dollars are expected to increase as we recognize interest income from such Fair Financing products over time in excess of the provision for credit losses originally taken, as illustrated below.

Klarna Card in Every Wallet The Klarna Card is a debit-first product that integrates all of Klarna's flexible payment methods — Pay in Full, Pay Later and Fair Financing — within a single physical and digital card experience. It supports real-time transfers and deposits, provides spending controls, and connects directly to the Klarna app for transaction tracking, budgeting tools and repayment management. In 2025, Klarna completed the U.S. rollout of the Klarna Card, which now has more than 4.2 million active users globally. Scaling the Klarna Card remains a key driver of Klarna's objective to become the preferred everyday payment method for its consumers. Building Next-Generation Digital Financial Services As a global digital bank, Klarna's services are automated, insight-driven and designed to be transparent, fair and intuitive. The Group partners with PSPs, traditional banks, card networks, commerce enablers, technology partners, merchants and shipping and returns logistics providers to improve the commerce experience. This breadth of ecosystem, coupled with Klarna's extensive portfolio of licences and regulatory authorisations, enables the provision of consumer services that include instant refunds, cashback, real-time debit and order and return tracking — features that save consumers time and money and put them in control of their finances. In 2025, Klarna expanded its Fair Financing offering — a transparent, non-revolving alternative to traditional credit — to a broader merchant network, including major partners such as Walmart.

Operating environment Klarna operates in a dynamic global environment shaped by technological innovation, evolving consumer expectations, regulatory developments, and economic conditions. The shift towards digital commerce and demand for flexible, transparent payment solutions continues to transform the financial services and retail sectors. Klarna is well positioned to benefit from these trends through its integrated commerce network, flexible payment options, and scalable, AI-powered technology platform. Macroeconomic factors, including inflation, interest rate fluctuations, and changes in consumer spending patterns, influence Klarna’s business. Klarna’s short-duration credit model, low-cost funding base, and diversified revenue streams provide resilience against changes in economic conditions. The regulatory landscape for financial services and consumer protection is becoming increasingly complex across Klarna’s operating markets, including the European Union, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Klarna remains committed to maintaining a strong governance and compliance framework to address emerging regulatory requirements, including consumer credit rules, data privacy laws, and open banking initiatives. Klarna also operates within an increasingly competitive environment, facing competition from traditional banks, credit card providers, payment networks, and other fintech platforms. Klarna’s differentiated offering — built around customer-centricity, operational efficiency, and innovation — supports its ability to attract and retain consumers and merchants in this evolving landscape.

Financial Overview Results of Operations The following table sets forth our results of operations for the periods presented. Historical results for any prior period are not necessarily indicative of results expected in any future period. For example, in the fourth quarter of 2024, we completed the divestment of KCO, our online checkout solution, to a consortium of investors. As a result of this disposition, our revenue and growth figures for the year ended December 31, 2025 may appear lower on a comparative basis as a result of this disposition. To illustrate that point, after adjusting for the sale of KCO, our revenue and operating loss in the year ended December 31, 2024 was $2,749 million and $164 million, respectively.

Transaction and service revenue Transaction and service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $364 million, or 17% (17% on a like-for-like basis), compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was generally in line with the increase in our GMV, which grew 21%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024 Transaction and service revenue grew primarily driven by increases in merchant revenue from Pay Later and Pay in Full GMV, increases in fees from the Klarna card, in line with increases in card volume, in particular in the U.S. Gain on sale of consumer receivables During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company entered into entered into sales agreements of Fair Financing receivables comprising both an initial sale of existing portfolio and additional forward flow agreements. These sales of receivables resulted in a gain on sale $73 million. There was no comparable revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024. Interest income Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $262 million, or 39% (34% on a like-for-like basis), compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by the acceleration of Fair Financing, where GMV accelerated sequentially throughout the year, with GMV increasing 123% year-over-year, reaching 165% in the fourth quarter of 2025. This supported a 61% ($213 million) increase in interest income from Fair Financing products, as well as an increase of $19 million from government bonds, driven by increased holdings, along with an increase in “snooze fees” of $32.5 million, driven by an increased volume of Pay Later transactions.

Processing and servicing costs Processing and servicing costs for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $213 million, or 36%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. Processing and servicing costs as a percentage of GMV increased from 0.57% to 0.63% for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, respectively, predominantly driven by the U.S. market, which has structurally higher payment fees, growing as a share of our GMV, as well as an increase in card issuing and processing fees. Provision for credit losses Provision for credit losses for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $299 million, or 60%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The provision for credit losses as a percentage of GMV rose from 0.47% to 0.63% for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, respectively. This increase was primarily driven by changes in product mix, in particular growth in our Fair Financing product, which has higher upfront provisions in comparison to our Pay Later product. Fair Financing GMV accelerated sequentially throughout the year, with GMV increasing 123% year-over- year, reaching 165% in the fourth quarter of 2025. Funding costs Funding costs for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $164 million, or 33%, respectively, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. Funding costs as a percentage of GMV increased from 0.48% to 0.52% for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, respectively. The increase in funding costs to $667 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $503 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, was primarily driven by a $133 million increase in fair value adjustments on loans sold and held for sale, which amounted to $163 million in 2025 driven by increases in Pay Later forward flow arrangements. The increase was further supported by higher other funding costs and increased expenses related to liabilities to credit institutions. These effects were partially offset by lower costs associated with consumer deposits. Technology and product development Technology and product development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $43 million, or 10%, respectively, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by increase in cloud-computing costs, as well as labor-related technology costs from higher share-based compensation and consulting costs. Sales and marketing Sales and marketing expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $87 million, or 26%, respectively, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase primarily resulted from higher share-based payments expenses, as well as increased marketing spend to support product adoption. Customer service and operations Customer service and operations expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $4 million, or 2%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. Cost increased at a slower pace KLARNA GROUP PLC 18 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

than volumes, with volumes up 32% year-over-year and transactions up 25% year-over-year, indicating continued operating leverage. General and administrative General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $25 million, or 9%, respectively, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase primarily resulted from higher share-based payments expenses and professional services costs. Depreciation, amortization and impairments Depreciation, amortization and impairments for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $28 million, or 34%, respectively, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the write-off of certain intangible assets, resulting in lower amortization expenses for intangible assets, offset by impairment charges on right-of-use assets following a decision to reduce certain office spaces to better align our leased space with our hybrid work model and current office, during the year ended December 31, 2024. Other (Expense) Income Other (expense) income decreased $165 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. This was primarily driven by the divestment of KCO, recycling of currency translation effects from other comprehensive income, and partially offset by the remark and administrative fine of issued by the SFSA, all occurring during the year ended December 31, 2024. Income Taxes Tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 of $32 million increased $20 million, compared to the tax expense of $12 million in the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily related to release of deferred tax liability related to the year ended December 31, 2024. Liquidity and Capital Resources Sources and Uses of Funds We have maintained a deliberate balance of growth and profitability, generating positive net income from 2005 to 2018. From 2019 to 2022, we invested to accelerate global revenue growth, specifically in the United States. While our expansion in the United States has contributed to an increase in our GMV, it has also led to operating and net losses in recent periods. Our Retained Earnings (Accumulated deficit) equaled $2,170 million and $(2,081) million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We are subject to regulatory requirements on liquidity and funding, including, among others, the Basel III framework (including its recent reforms known as “Basel IV”), CRD IV and CRR. See “— Regulatory Capital Requirements” below. Our funding needs are determined by the size and growth of our consumer loan portfolio and the size of our liquidity buffer. The funding needs are met primarily with consumer deposits as well as wholesale market funding and loan sale arrangements. We introduced deposit offerings in 2012. As of December 31, 2025, we held $13 billion of consumer funds. We believe that consumers find our deposit platform attractive due to its ease of account opening, its intuitive digital platform and the competitive interest rates that we offer. We KLARNA GROUP PLC 19 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

currently offer savings accounts directly to residents of Sweden, Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, Finland, France, Belgium, Spain, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Poland, Denmark and Portugal. We also raise deposits in Germany, the Netherlands, France, Spain, Finland and Ireland pursuant to a partnership with a third-party platform operated by Raisin. We do not take deposits in the United States, including interest-bearing deposits, as we do not maintain the necessary banking licenses to take U.S. deposits. Given our access to a variety of funding sources, as described below, and our decreasing net losses in recent periods, expanding our deposit-taking operations into the United States is not currently a part of our funding strategy. In addition to maintaining and growing our deposit base, we pursue a number of additional funding strategies. Through our subsidiaries, we utilize credit facilities as well as issue commercial paper, regulatory capital notes and other debt securities, including senior and subordinated notes under our Euro and Swedish Medium Term Note Programs, as more fully discussed under “— Indebtedness” below. We also utilize forward flow sale agreements, pursuant to which we sell loans originated on our network. See “—Securitization and Forward Flow Arrangements.” Accordingly, we believe that we have sufficient access to funding sources necessary to appropriately support our operations and future growth. We have a centralized funding model whereby substantially all deposits and other funding (e.g., wholesale market funding) is raised by Klarna Bank. Klarna Bank then provides, by utilizing currency swaps when needed, necessary funding to other entities within our consolidated group, including to enable our geographical expansion and growth in new markets outside of the EEA. There are currently no regulatory restrictions on the amount of such funding to our entities that are within the regulated banking group, which comprises Klarna Holding and its subsidiaries, including Klarna Inc., our U.S. operating subsidiary, and KFSUK, our U.K. operating subsidiary. Any funding from Klarna Bank to group entities outside the regulated banking group is subject to limits under large exposures rules, which restrict the amount of such funding to 25% of the regulated banking group’s Tier 1 capital. Our primary needs for liquidity are driven by regulatory requirements and our internal risk limits for liquidity risk. We take a conservative approach to liquidity. As of December 31, 2025, our LCR and NSFR were 892% and 193%, respectively, many times higher than the LCR and NSFR of major Nordic banks. We also had HQLA of $4,543 million as of December 31, 2025, 65% of which composed of cash held at various central banks and other demand deposits. Our liquidity risk arises through the need to fund withdrawals of consumer deposits as well as extending loans to our consumers, capital expenditures and working capital. We had $3,803 million and $3,243 million of cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The $560 million increase in cash as of December 31, 2025 as compared to December 31, 2024 was primarily due to increases in consumer deposits, offset by an increase in consumer receivables. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalent balances, projected cash inflows from operations, including from consumer deposits and repayment of consumer loans and loan sale arrangements, will be sufficient to meet our future liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months. Our long-term funding requirements may vary materially from those currently planned and will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, our loan portfolio growth rate, the development of our network and introduction of new products, services and offerings, potential entrance into new geographies or adjacent categories or merger and acquisition activity, other strategic initiatives, increased regulatory requirements, credit losses, headcount, sales and marketing activities, capital expenditures and volatility in capital markets and overall economic conditions. KLARNA GROUP PLC 20 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

To the extent that current and anticipated future sources of funding are insufficient to fund our future business activities and requirements, we may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing or further increase the amount of our consumer deposits. The sale of additional equity securities would result in additional dilution to shareholders. Incurring debt financing would result in debt service obligations. The instruments governing such debt could provide for operating and financing covenants that may restrict our operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional funds on terms that are attractive to us or at all. The inability to raise funds may adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and future prospects. Regulatory Capital Requirements We are subject to extensive capital adequacy requirements, including, among others, the Basel III framework (including its recent reforms known as “Basel IV”), CRD IV and CRR. The capital adequacy framework specifies, among other things, minimum amounts and types of capital that we need to maintain, including CET1 capital and Tier 1 capital in relation to our risk-weighted exposure amounts. The table below presents a summary of capital adequacy and liquidity information on a consolidated basis, consistent with our presentation of such information in our Pillar 3 Reports, for the periods presented. We are required to prepare such reports on an annual basis. In addition, we publish select capital adequacy and liquidity information quarterly.

Such fluctuations were mostly driven by our discretionary capital allocation decisions made in the ordinary course of business to support our growth and effectively manage our operations. They also reflect changes in our net loss (income) for the relevant period. KLARNA GROUP PLC 22 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Cash flow information The following table sets forth our consolidated cash flow information for the periods presented: For the Year Ended December 31, 2025 2024 (in $ millions) Cash provided by (used in): Operating activities ............................................................................................. $ (1,032) $ 587 Investing activities .............................................................................................. $ (30) $ 154 Financing activities ............................................................................................. $ 988 $ 312 Operating activities The Group reported a net cash outflow from operating activities of $1,032 million in the year ended 31 December 2025, compared to a cash inflow of $587 million in 2024. This movement principally reflects the deliberate deployment of capital to fund accelerated growth in the consumer loan portfolio, particularly through the rapid expansion of Fair Financing, and is not indicative of a deterioration in the underlying business. Excluding movements in operating assets and liabilities, cash inflows from operating activities increased by $703 million to $1,455 million, driven by growth in interest income, higher non-cash provisions for credit losses and increased share-based payment charges. These inflows were more than offset by cash outflows of $1,533 million from working capital movements, primarily growth in Fair Financing and Pay Later receivables of approximately $1.2 billion and an increase in bonds and treasury bills with a maturity greater than 90 days, partially offset by a $1,328 million increase in consumer deposits. Foreign exchange movements had a positive translational effect on reported USD cash flows during the year, as the depreciation of the US dollar against the Swedish krona, euro and sterling — the currencies in which the majority of the Group's cash and cash and cash equivalents are denominated — contributed approximately $634 million of benefit to cash and cash equivalents. Investing activities Cash outflow from investing activities was $30 million in the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to cash inflow from investing activities of $154 million in the year ended December 31, 2024. The year-over-year decrease of $184 million in cash flow from investing activities was primarily due to the net cash received of $187 million related to the divestment of KCO in 2024. This was partially offset by a year-over-year decrease in investments in intangible assets of $17 million. Financing activities Cash inflow from financing activities was $988 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to cash inflow from financing activities of $312 million in the year ended December 31, 2024. The year-over-year increase of $676 million in cash flow from financing activities was primarily due to $191 million from the issuance of shares related to the September 2025 IPO, the issuance of $165 million in senior unsecured bonds in Klarna Bank AB, the receipt of $589 million from our credit facility, and notes payable redeemed in Klarna Bank AB of $86 million. This was offset by $142 milion of issuances of AT1 securities and subordinated debt of $100 million in Klarna Holding during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Indebtedness Swedish Medium Term Note Program Klarna Bank established a medium term note program (the “Swedish Medium Term Note Program”) for the issuance of medium term notes denominated in EUR, NOK and SEK (such notes, “Swedish MTN Notes”). Swedish MTN Notes may be issued in minimal denominations of EUR 100,000 (or the equivalent in any other available currency) and with a minimum term of one year. Klarna Bank has agreed that the total principal amount of Swedish MTN Notes will not exceed SEK 10 billion (approximately $1,086 million, using the SEK/USD exchange rate of 0.1086000 in effect as of December 31, 2025) at any time. Swedish MTN Notes may bear a fixed or floating interest rate determined by reference to a benchmark such as EURIBOR, NIBOR or STIBOR. Swedish MTN Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Klarna Bank and rank equally in right of payment to all of Klarna Bank’s existing and future senior debt and senior in right of payment to all of Klarna Bank’s existing and future subordinated debt. Neither Klarna Group plc nor any of its subsidiaries guarantees Swedish MTN Notes. The terms and conditions governing Swedish MTN Notes include certain covenants that, among others, limit Klarna Bank’s ability to consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of its assets and require Klarna Bank to maintain a license to conduct banking and/ or financing activities as required under the Swedish Banking Act as well as make certain information available to noteholders. Euro Medium Term Note Program Klarna Holding and Klarna Bank established a medium term note program (the “Euro Medium Term Note Program”) for the issuance of medium term notes in DKK, EUR, NOK, GBP, SEK and USD (such notes, “Euro MTN Notes”). Euro MTN Notes may be issued in minimal denominations of EUR 100,000 (or the equivalent in any other available currency) and with a minimum term of one year. Klarna Holding and Klarna Bank have agreed that the total principal amount of Euro MTN Notes will not exceed EUR 3,000 million (approximately $3,540 million, using the EUR/USD exchange rate of 1.18 in effect as of December 31, 2025) at any time. Euro MTN Notes may bear a fixed or floating interest rate determined by reference to a benchmark such as EURIBOR, NIBOR, STIBOR, SOFR or CIBOR, or may be non-interesting bearing. Euro MTN Notes may be issued on a senior preferred basis (“Senior Preferred Notes”), on a senior non-preferred basis (“Senior Non-Preferred Notes”) or on a subordinated basis. The Senior Preferred Notes and the Senior Non-Preferred Notes are intended to be available to meet any MREL Requirement applicable to us. Neither Klarna Group plc nor any of its subsidiaries guarantees Euro MTN Notes. AT1 Notes Klarna Bank issues from time to time notes that are intended to be treated as Additional Tier 1 Capital (such notes, “AT1 Notes”). AT1 Notes have no set maturity date but Klarna Bank may, subject to the SFSA’s pre-approval, redeem such notes in its discretion five years after issuance. AT1 Notes may bear a fixed or floating interest rate determined by reference to a benchmark such as EURIBOR, NIBOR or STIBOR. AT1 Notes are junior unsecured obligations of Klarna Bank and rank equally in right of payment to all of Klarna Bank’s existing and future Additional Tier 1 Capital instruments, senior to all ordinary shares and other instruments that rank junior to AT1 Notes and junior in right of payment to all of depositors of Klarna Bank, other unsubordinated creditors of Klarna Bank, any non-preferred creditors, as defined in the Swedish Rights of Priority Act, and any subordinated creditors, including holders of instruments that qualify as Tier 2 Capital of Klarna Bank. AT1 Notes are subject to write- KLARNA GROUP PLC 24 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

down upon occurrence of a trigger event, as set forth in the applicable terms and conditions governing the particular series of AT1 Notes. Tier 2 Notes Klarna Holding issues from time to time notes that are intended to be treated as Tier 2 Capital (such notes, “Tier 2 Notes”). Tier 2 Notes may bear a fixed or floating interest rate determined by reference to a benchmark such as EURIBOR, NIBOR or STIBOR. Tier 2 Notes are junior unsecured obligations of Klarna Bank and rank equally in right of payment to all of Klarna Holding’s existing and future Tier 2 Capital instruments, senior in right of payment to all of Klarna Bank’s existing and future Additional Tier 1 Capital instruments and all ordinary shares and other instruments that rank junior to Tier 2 Capital instruments and junior in right of payment to all of depositors of Klarna Bank, other unsubordinated creditors of Klarna Bank, and any non-preferred creditors, as defined in the Swedish Rights of Priority Act. The terms and conditions governing Tier 2 Notes include certain covenants that, among others, require Klarna Holding to make certain information available to the noteholders. Tier 2 Notes may be issued under the Swedish Medium Term Note Program or the Euro Medium Term Note Program, or in a standalone offering. Notes currently outstanding The table below includes details regarding series of notes outstanding as of December 31, 2025. The amounts in U.S. dollars included below were translated from SEK, where applicable, using the SEK/USD exchange rate of 0.1090 in effect as of December 31, 2025, and rounded to one decimal.

Under the warehouse facility, we can borrow up to €1.4 billion ($1.6 billion) on a revolving basis. Any borrowings under the warehouse facility are secured by our German “Pay in 30” receivables and will be limited to 80% of the unpaid principal balance of the collateralized loans. Interest on the borrowings accrues at a variable rate by reference to one-month EURIBOR plus an applicable margin. Such borrowings will be classified within Notes payable and other borrowings in our consolidated balance sheets. The documents governing the facility contain customary representations and covenants reflective of our investment grade credit rating, including portfolio performance triggers. The warehouse facility is structured through a bankruptcy-remote special- purpose vehicle in which creditors do not have recourse against the general creditors of Klarna. As of the date of this report, $589 million was outstanding under the warehouse facility. Securitization and Forward Flow Arrangements We enter into synthetic securitization transactions with unconsolidated securitization vehicles (“SPVs”), pursuant to which we economically transfer a portion of credit risk for certain pools of KLARNA GROUP PLC 26 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

consumer receivables (the “referenced pools”) to the SPV. The SPV then issues credit-linked notes to investors. Klarna retains contractual rights to receive the cashflows of the referenced pools and does not derecognize these consumer receivables from its consolidated balance sheet. Klarna pays a fee to the SPV for the transfer of credit risk that is recorded as incurred in Funding costs. The Company incurred fees of $30.7 million and $21.9 million for 2025 and 2024, respectively, in connection with such transactions. The total consumer receivable pool was $1.3 billion and $2.1 billion as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In 2024, we entered into a forward flow arrangement involving the sale of U.K. Pay Later receivables to an external securitization vehicle financed by the issuance of senior and junior notes to third parties. We derecognize these receivables upon transferring the contractual rights to the cash flows and substantially all associated risks and rewards, which is deemed to occur on the sale date. We also continue to service the sold receivables on behalf of the SPV. The structure has a maximum total consumer receivable pool of GBP 818 million ($1,104 million using the GBP/USD exchange rate of 1.3500000 in effect as of December 31, 2025). During the second quarter of 2025, we entered into a new forward flow arrangement involving the sale of U.S. Pay Later receivables to an external securitization vehicle, under which the sale of receivables is expected to begin during the third quarter of 2025, up to a maximum program size of $777 million. In the fourth quarter of 2025, we entered into a new forward flow and whole-loan sale program with a third party investor. The arrangement included the sale of $800 million of the Group’s existing portfolio of U.S. Fair Financing term loans and ongoing sale of newly originated receivables with a maximum facility size of $1 billion and up to $6.5 billion of originations over its duration. The total consumer receivables originated at fair value through profit and loss or at fair value through OCI during 2025 totaled $18 billion, of which $786 million was unsold as of December 31, 2025. Management of Risks Risk management is central to Klarna’s operating model and underpins all activities conducted throughout the organization. The purpose of risk management is to safeguard Klarna’s long-term viability, mitigate volatility in financial performance, enhance operational resilience and performance, and facilitate informed decision-making. Klarna’s risk management governance model encourages a risk-aware culture combined with control structures which are monitored and enforced by independent control functions. Key controls are documented and assessed on a regular basis, with assessments considering both effectiveness of design and operation. The risk strategy is a natural extension of the business model that focuses on identification, assessment, management and monitoring of the material risks that Klarna is exposed to. Klarna categorizes the key risks it is exposed to into six types. These categories are subsequently further refined and managed within the organization. These risk categories form the basis of how Klarna identifies, assesses, manages, and reports against risk. KLARNA GROUP PLC 27 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Credit risk is defined as: the risk of loss due to a counterparty failing to meet its contractual obligations or concentrations in exposures. Credit risk is fundamental to Klarna’s mission of providing consumers a smooth payment experience, better financial management and supporting partners’ growth. It is a risk that Klarna takes to achieve its business objectives. Klarna ensures that the consumer credit portfolio is resilient to volatile economic conditions by offering short duration credits and low average order value. Klarna limits the concentration of non- performing loans and large single exposures in the consumer credit portfolio. This, together with the dispersion of millions of customers across multiple countries and continents and low average order value, ensures that the consumer portfolio is diversified. Klarna takes precautions to ensure that approved consumers have the ability to pay their obligations. Exposures and losses stemming from partners, payment and bank counterparties are managed by limiting single exposures based on the risk class of the counterparty as well as the exposure concentration to individual partner segments. Exposures to partners are managed using mitigation tools to increase Klarna’s collateral, such as payment delays, rolling reserves, insurances and withholding payments. Klarna uses financial guarantees to provide protection for part of its portfolio of consumer exposures. The guarantee can reduce the regulatory capital the bank is required to hold for unexpected losses and the guarantee is fully funded with eligible collateral. Market risk is defined as: the risk of movements in market prices impacting Klarna’s earnings or capital position. Klarna does not actively take market risk but due to its multi-currency business and different duration of its assets and liabilities market risk is an inherent risk of the business. Interest rate risk specifically arises via a mismatch of terms in assets and liabilities where duration of funding is longer compared to the duration of credits granted to consumers. Klarna seeks to match lending in foreign currencies with a financial liability in the same currency and any mismatches may be hedged to minimize the impact changes in currency rates may have on Klarna’s realized earnings. Similarly, Klarna seeks to match changes in interest rate on borrowings with interest rates on lending and, where needed, hedge mismatches. Klarna does not invest in financial instruments other than for liquidity, interest rate and currency risk management purposes. From time to time Klarna makes strategic investments in other companies to accelerate innovation and/or expand and improve its product offering. Equity risk, the risk that the value of these investments may increase or decrease, is a natural consequence of this activity. The risk of losses arises due to the potential for adverse price changes of an investment. This exposure is limited through Board mandates. Liquidity risk is defined as: the risk of being unable to meet financial obligations as they fall due, or unable to fund operational needs without incurring unacceptable costs. Klarna is dependent upon the effective management of liquidity risk to realize the company’s strategy. The risk of insufficient funding being available would have implications on future growth, the company’s ability to meet financial obligations, and in an extreme scenario, the breach of regulatory limits. KLARNA GROUP PLC 28 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Klarna is primarily exposed to liquidity risk due to the potential for unexpected increased demand for loans. There is a risk that Klarna does not have a sufficient capacity to acquire additional funding at a reasonable cost in a timely manner, or does not have sufficient levels of liquid assets to convert to cash during such times. Klarna therefore keeps sufficient levels of liquidity at hand at all times, ensuring that funds are available to support the business and that regulatory requirements are adhered to. Klarna actively manages its liquidity risk exposure and sources of liquidity by calculating, forecasting and managing the size of the High Quality Liquid Assets (HQLA) portfolio and the funding needs to ensure that Klarna always has the ability to fulfill its commitments as they fall due and meet regulatory requirements. Klarna invests in financial instruments for liquidity management purposes, and mostly in high credit quality sovereign and municipal government securities. Operational risk is defined as: the risk of inadequate or failed processes, personnel, products or third parties. Operational Risk exists across all of Klarna’s business processes. The continued delivery of Klarna’s services to customers (partners and consumers) relies on resilience and stability in how processes, personnel, products and third parties are managed. To manage these inherent risks Klarna operates a robust operational risk management framework. Klarna maintains an operational risk management framework as outlined in the Operational Risk Policy. This is supported by more detailed risk specific approaches. On an annual basis, business critical products and services are identified and a risk assessment completed, including review of internal controls and identification of any additional mitigation activities required. This includes maintaining a business continuity plan to ensure continuation of services in the event of disruption. To sustain operational delivery, outside of business continuity, a mandatory Incident management process provides a structured approach for continuous learning and improvement through analysis of past incidents. A driver of operational risk is major change. Klarna operates a change management approval process (the NPA process) to ensure a sound understanding of the business change and capture associated risks. All major changes undergo a risk assessment led by the owner of the change to identify and assess the risks associated with the change, and to implement adequate controls and/or mitigation actions. Klarna has zero tolerance for entering into or maintaining business relationships where there is knowledge or suspicion that Klarna’s products or services are being used for money laundering or terrorist financing. In such cases, Klarna will immediately terminate the relationship and take appropriate action in accordance with regulatory requirements. ICT and Security risk is defined as: the risk of loss, disruption, or compromise of information assets or ICT systems due to intentional or accidental events impacting confidentiality, integrity, or availability. ICT & Security risk arises from Klarna’s highly digital operating model, which relies on cloud- based infrastructure, large-scale consumer and merchant integrations, and continuous product innovation. Key exposures include cyber-attacks, system failures, inappropriate access, data leakage, supplier dependencies, and human factors such as phishing or weak security practices. As Klarna’s public profile grows, heightened attention is given to the risk of targeted cyber threats.

Klarna uses many automated and standardized security measures in a layered approach to protect systems. To manage IT and security risks, Klarna maintains a specific IT and security management framework. This includes frequent IT security/vulnerability assessments and testing, ongoing system monitoring, software change management controls, strict access management controls and regular training, including security awareness training and exercises. IT and Security risk controls are tested and measured continuously. Business risk is defined as: the risk of suboptimal strategy or sustainability factors impacting the achievement of Klarna’s long-term business objectives or altering the valuation or viability of the business. Business risk refers to the impact on Klarna’s ability to achieve its objectives, arising from strategic choices and execution, considering Klarna’s capital position, the business environment, and sustainability factors. When establishing its strategy, Klarna takes an integrated approach, considering its long-term financial interests, potential risks, and the capital required to manage those risks. This is done by ensuring the business strategy, risk strategy, risk appetite and capital planning are developed concurrently to allow each element to be taken into account by the others to produce a unified and coherent outcome. Klarna takes an agile approach to managing business risk, regularly reviewing strategic performance and adapting to new opportunities. This includes exploring new technologies or markets whilst leveraging Klarna’s core strengths, such as its unique product offering, global reach, brand and core gross profitability. Business planning sets out the implementation of the Board strategy and reporting occurs monthly to track and adapt business performance against the delivery of the strategy and how the Board’s strategy is being delivered. Klarna manages sustainability risks by recognizing both prudential and non-prudential regulatory dimensions. For prudential regulation, sustainability risk, including ESG factors, is integrated into risk management practices such as the credit policy and stress testing scenarios. Non-prudential regulation involves collaboration across Klarna to assess external data and communications, including ESG reports and voluntary reporting initiatives. Non-Financial and Sustainability Information Statement In accordance with sections 414CA and 414CB of the Companies Act 2006, the Directors present Klarna Group plc’s Non-Financial and Sustainability Information Statement for the year ended 31 December 2025. Klarna’s mission is to help consumers save time, save money, and reduce financial worry. Klarna provides flexible payment and financial services underpinned by an AI-powered technology platform, focusing on responsible lending, transparency, and consumer empowerment. Klarna’s sustainability approach is embedded into its overall business strategy and its principal non-financial policies and procedures address key areas of environmental sustainability, employee engagement, respect for human rights, social responsibility, and anti-corruption and anti-bribery matters.

Climate-Related Financial Disclosures Klarna Group plc complies with the requirements of the Companies (Strategic Report) (Climate- related Financial Disclosure) Regulations 2022. The following disclosures align with the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD): Governance: The Board of Directors has oversight of climate-related risks and opportunities through quarterly updates and reviews, supported by Klarna’s Sustainability Lead and the Risk Control Function. Strategy: Klarna’s business strategy incorporates climate resilience, including a climate transition plan to achieve net zero emissions by 2040, and proactive investment in low-carbon technologies and sustainable commerce initiatives. Risk Management: Climate-related risks are integrated into Klarna’s enterprise risk management framework, including annual scenario analysis and climate risk assessments across operations, supply chain, and merchant ecosystems. Metrics and Targets: Klarna measures Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions and has achieved a 43% reduction in total emissions compared to its 2022 baseline. Klarna’s climate targets are validated by the SBTi and tracked annually. Klarna’s Climate Risk and Resilience Assessment Klarna is committed to gaining a comprehensive understanding of the climate risks and opportunities the company is exposed to. Klarna deploys three principal tools to assess climate risks and opportunities and the resilience of its business model and strategy against them: 1) Annual GHG accounting 2) a quantitative climate scenario analysis and 3) a qualitative climate risk assessment. Annual GHG Accounting Klarna measures its GHG emissions annually in line with the GHG Protocol standards using Watershed’s GHG accounting application to assess the impact of its business on the climate and provide the foundation for its climate strategy and risk assessments. Klarna’s overall emissions are relatively low and no likely future sources of significant GHG emissions were identified. Climate Scenario Analysis Klarna conducted an updated climate scenario analysis in 2025. The analysis evaluates the potential financial impacts of climate-related physical and transition risks across its most financially material markets: Germany, the United States, Sweden, and the United Kingdom under three distinct climate scenarios. It also assesses Klarna’s exposure to high-carbon industries in these markets as a proxy for transition risks. Evaluation of Potential Financial Impacts To evaluate the potential financial impacts of climate-related physical and transition risks, the analysis employed the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), Delayed Transition, and Net Zero 2050 scenarios developed by the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS). These scenarios provide distinct pathways for understanding macroeconomic and policy outcomes , including GDP deviations, regulatory changes, and shifts in consumer behavior. Further details on the KLARNA GROUP PLC 32 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

models are available through the NGFS Scenarios Portal. The analysis extends to 2034, covering near-, medium, and long-term time horizons. The analysis applied Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs) such as GCAM, REMIND-MAGPIE, and MESSAGEix-GLOBIOM which are foundational tools within the NGFS framework. These models integrate physical climate data with economic variables to estimate the potential impacts of climate change under varying policy and transition scenarios. • The NDCs scenario reflects governments’ formally committed climate pledges, assuming progressive policy tightening in line with nationally determined contributions. It produces a moderate-transition pathway with steadily rising mitigation efforts. • The Delayed Transition scenario reflects abrupt and reactive policy changes after 2030, highlighting risks from regulatory shocks and economic disruptions. • The Net Zero 2050 scenario assumes a structured and proactive approach to achieving global net-zero emissions, illustrating the economic costs and benefits of early climate action. These scenarios were selected to reflect a diverse range of plausible climate futures and to test the resilience of Klarna's business model to both transitional risks, and physical risks, including potential changes in regulation, consumer preferences, and the the frequency and severity of extreme weather events. The results were weighted according to Klarna's financial footprint in its most material markets, ensuring consistency with the company's business model and risk management framework. This methodology enables the estimation of not only direct financial impacts, but also secondary effects such as shifts in market dynamics and consumer behavior, providing a comprehensive foundation for strategic planning and long-term resilience. The analysis determined that the financial impacts of climate-related risks under all three scenarios were assessed as low, according to Klarna's internal risk scales. The Nationally Determined Contributions scenario, characterized by the formal committed policy pledges, indicated manageable reductions in transactional volumes with gradual economic impacts over time. The Delayed Transition scenario, reflecting abrupt policy shifts after 2030, suggested slightly smaller impacts on transactional volumes while emphasizing heightened risks from potential economic disruptions. The Net Zero 2050 scenario, representing a structured and proactive transition to a low- carbon economy, projected impacts reflecting the costs of early climate action. Despite differences between the scenarios, the analysis concluded that exposure to physical and transition risks covered by the scenario analysis' methodology and drivers of underlying scenarios remains limited, with all projected impacts falling within the low-risk range. Assessment of Klarna’s Exposure to High-Carbon Industries The analysis also adapted the Paris Agreement Capital Transition Assessment (PACTA) methodology to assess the exposure of Klarna’s business to carbon-intensive sectors as a proxy for exposure to potential regulatory and market shifts associated with decarbonization. Using PACTA, the analysis identified the relative contribution of the sectors Klarna has the most significant business volumes to the national GHG emissions of Klarna's most financially significant markets: Germany, the United States, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. KLARNA GROUP PLC 33 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

The results showed that the exposure of Klarna's business to carbon-intensive sectors remains minimal, with business activities concentrated in sectors with relatively low emissions profiles. Across all assessed markets, the categories representing the largest share of transactional volumes were found to contribute only marginally to national greenhouse gas emissions, reinforcing the company's limited transition-risk exposure and the resilience of its asset-light, digital business model. Qualitative Review of Climate Risks and Opportunities Klarna conducts an annual internal review of climate risks that qualitatively evaluates climate- related risks and opportunities that may impact its business operations and strategy over the short, medium and long-term. Based on the conclusions of the 2025 review, the following risks were assessed in line with the framework developed by the Taskforce for Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). Physical Risks Acute Physical Risks The operations of Klarna's more than 960k commercial partners are directly reliant on globally distributed production and logistics infrastructure, creating exposure to disruptions from extreme weather events such as floods, hurricanes, or wildfires. These disruptions could affect each of their individual business and financial stability, which in turn may impact transaction volumes on Klarna's platform. However, due to the high diversification of Klarna's business across geographies, sectors, and commercial partners, the aggregate risk from acute weather events, even under high emission scenarios, has been assessed as low. Chronic Physical Risks Over time, chronic physical risks from climate-related events may present challenges for the material sourcing and operations of some of Klarna's commercial partners. However, based on Klarna’s diversified business model, these risks are currently considered low for its business. Transition Risks Policy and Legal Risks Emerging climate-centric regulations, notably around emissions reporting and carbon pricing, present transition risks in the form of potential operational, compliance, and non-compliance costs. Adhering to new and evolving regulatory frameworks could result in increases in operational, administrative, and third-party advisory costs. Non-compliance may lead to legal and financial repercussions, including regulatory costs or litigation, as well as reputational damage. Overall, the potential costs of policy and legal transition risks are assessed as low, given Klarna’s digital business model, which entails limited direct emissions and minimal exposure to highly polluting sectors, as well as its robust governance and compliance controls. These risks are actively monitored and mitigated through Klarna’s established ESG reporting processes, proactive regulatory engagement, and climate-action activities.

Market Risks In the context of climate transition, market risks refer to potential impacts arising from changes in consumer preferences and market demand linked to sustainability trends, rather than traditional financial market exposures. Klarna connects consumers and commercial partners to deliver a safe and superior commercial experience, specializing in payments, factoring, and consumer credits with low order values and short durations. Business volumes are therefore directly linked to consumer spending. Increasing awareness of the climate impacts of goods and services may influence purchasing behavior, potentially lowering overall spending or shifting consumption toward products perceived as more sustainable. These potential market shifts create transition risks for Klarna, such as decreasing transaction volumes or reduced demand in product categories with high commercial significance but low sustainability perception. These risks are considered low, given Klarna’s proactive sustainability profile, which includes partnerships that promote responsible consumption and in-app functionalities that help users make more sustainable choices. Through these initiatives and the ongoing integration of sustainability into its product offering and brand strategy, Klarna is well positioned to adapt to and benefit from market shifts driven by the climate transition. Reputational Risks Reputational risk may arise from Klarna’s association with brands or commercial partners that are scrutinized for the climate impact of their business models, or from perceptions that Klarna indirectly contributes to such impacts through its services. These risks are considered low, given Klarna’s strong governance standards, proactive climate strategy, and transparent communication on sustainability performance. Klarna actively manages reputational exposure through robust partner due-diligence processes and by embedding sustainability principles into its partnerships and product development. In addition, Klarna promotes transparency and awareness among consumers through features integrated into the Klarna app, which provide users with sustainability-related information about brands and products, highlight recognized certifications, and offer guidance on extending product life through resale and circular options. Climate-Related Opportunities Climate Leadership Klarna's ambitious and innovative climate goals and strategies position it as a leader among peers, strengthening the brand in the eyes of customers, merchant partners, and other stakeholders, and providing a credible foundation for its sustainability features. Climate Stewardship Klarna has an opportunity to establish itself as a go-to destination for environmentally conscious shoppers, for example by providing credible information about the sustainability aspects of goods and services or offering used and refurbished goods on the platforms. Building on existing offerings that highlight climate and sustainability-related performance of products and commercial partners, Klarna is well-positioned to capitalize on this growing market segment and actively pursues this opportunity with its evolving portfolio of sustainability information offerings.

Resilience of Business Model and Strategy to Climate Risk Based on the results of Klarna’s climate scenario analysis and qualitative climate risk review, the company’s business model is assessed as resilient to the impacts of climate change. Klarna's operations are not dependent on physical assets that are vulnerable to climate events. While specific commercial partners may have operations or supply chains exposed to physical climate risks, these risks are effectively mitigated by the size and diversity of Klarna's commercial partner network, which makes the overall business structurally resilient to these risks. Klarna has limited exposure to high-carbon industries and is not reliant on carbon-intensive operations. Consequently Klarna has low exposure to climate-related transition risks. In addition, Klarna takes proactive steps to further mitigate residual risks, including reducing value-chain emissions, providing consumers with tools to understand and manage the environmental impact of their purchases, and embedding climate considerations into risk management and strategic planning. Taken together, these factors support the conclusion, based on best-available information, that Klarna’s overall exposure to climate-related risk is low, according to the company’s internal risk- impact assessment scale. Klarna will continue to monitor and update this assessment on an ongoing basis to reflect emerging data, regulatory developments, and potential changes in its risk profile. The following table provides a summary of Klarna Group plc’s principal climate-related performance indicators, aligned with the Group’s net zero strategy and climate risk management approach.

Interactions with regulators In the US, we closely monitored the impact of the new Administration on rules and regulations relevant to our sector. In March 2025, the CFPB1 announced that it would not be pursuing its previously announced Interpretive Rule on “buy now, pay later.” Following further changes to the CFPB’s priorities at the Federal supervisory level, we have seen increased regulatory action from individual US states. As a result, we have been engaging proactively with lawmakers in states like New York and Ohio as they explore their own approach to regulation. In Sweden, we supported the government’s work on the transposition of the updated Consumer Credit Directive by responding to the public consultation and engaging in bilateral meetings with the Ministry of Justice. We hosted a roundtable discussion during Almedalen Week, and shared insights with relevant stakeholders on measures to combat over-indebtedness in Sweden. We continue to engage with the SFSA and other supervisory authorities as part of our ongoing regulatory dialogue. In Germany, we engaged with national policymakers on topics such as the 2nd Consumer Credit Directive (CCD), the EU Payments Package, and amendments to the Federal Data Protection Act on credit scoring. In the EU, we worked with national Member State lawmakers on the two-year transposition of the 2nd Consumer Credit Directive (CCD) to help ensure the future regulation of “buy now, pay later” was proportionate and in line with the framing passed down by Brussels. Klarna also responded to consultations on the EU Banking Package (Basel 3.1), Payment Services Directive 3, Payment Regulation 1, and Financial Data Access initiatives. In the UK, we had extensive engagement with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and their consultation on incoming “buy now, pay later” regulation. We also supported the Competition and Markets Authority in their studies into mobile platforms and digital wallets. Future development Our mission is to reimagine how consumers spend and save in their daily lives. We help people save time, money and reduce financial worry. We envision a world where Klarna empowers everyone, everywhere, through seamless commerce experiences—as a personalized, trusted assistant making financial empowerment effortless. We will continue to invest in our products and services including the Klarna app, Card, bank accounts, open banking and our marketing services to create a strong platform for future growth.

Branches abroad The Group conducts certain European banking operations through its indirect subsidiary, Klarna Bank AB (publ), which operates branches in Denmark, France, Ireland, Germany, and the United Kingdom. The UK branch does not perform regulated activities; regulated activities in the UK are conducted only by KFSUK. Directors' Remuneration Report Statement from the Chair of the Remuneration & Nomination Committee Dear Shareholder, On behalf of the Remuneration and Nomination Committee (the "Committee"), I am pleased to present the Directors' Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 December 2025. This is Klarna Group plc's first Directors' Remuneration Report as a quoted company following the successful listing of its ordinary shares on the New York Stock Exchange on 10 September 2025. 2025 was a landmark year for Klarna. The Group completed its IPO on 10 September 2025, with ordinary shares now traded on the NYSE under the ticker "KLAR". The year marked the completion of the first phase of Klarna's strategic journey — building a scaled global payments network — and the acceleration of its second phase: converting that network into a global digital bank through cards, savings and Fair Financing. The Group delivered strong top-line growth. Full year total revenue grew 25% to $3,509 million, with Q4 representing Klarna's first billion-dollar revenue quarter at $1,082 million, up 38% year-on- year and above guidance. U.S. revenue grew 58% year-on-year in Q4. Full year GMV reached $128 billion (+21%), with Q4 GMV of $38.7 billion (+32%) also exceeding guidance. Strategic product adoption accelerated materially in the second half of the year. Fair Financing GMV grew 165% year-on-year in Q4, reaching 193% in December. The Klarna Card reached 4.2 million active users, with Card GMV growing 209% in Q4 and the Card now representing 15% of total transactions. Most engaged banking consumers grew 101% year-on-year to 15.8 million, generating $107 in revenue per user — more than three times the base population. This growth came with a near-term impact on reported margins. Full year adjusted operating profit was $65 million and the Group recorded a net loss of $273 million. Fair Financing requires upfront provisioning for expected credit losses at origination while interest income accrues over the life of the loan; faster-than-expected adoption therefore temporarily defers reported profitability. Importantly, delinquency rates remain stable, with provision for credit losses declining to 0.65% of GMV in Q4, down 7 basis points quarter-on-quarter, and charge-off performance within expected ranges. Operating discipline was maintained throughout. Since Q4 2022, revenue has grown 104% while operating expenses have decreased 8%. Revenue per employee reached $1.24 million, up 3.6 times since 2022, while headcount is down 49%, with compensation per employee simultaneously increasing. The major remuneration decisions taken during the year were as follows: KLARNA GROUP PLC 41 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Adoption of the 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan. On 27 June 2025, the Company adopted the Klarna Group plc 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Omnibus Plan"), which serves as the primary share incentive plan for employees and third-party contributors following the IPO. The Omnibus Plan provides for a range of award types including share options, restricted share units ("RSUs"), performance awards and other share-based instruments. Share option awards to executive directors. During 2025, the Board granted options to acquire 8,834,736 ordinary shares to members of the Company's management team, and a further 108,960 ordinary shares to certain executive officers and directors. Class C share option award to the Chief Executive Officer. The Board granted 17,505,672 Class C share options to Sebastian Siemiatkowski, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, vesting over a four-year period at a weighted average exercise price of $45.8. Two Class C share options entitle Mr Siemiatkowski to elect, at his discretion, to receive either one ordinary share or two Class C shares upon exercise. The Board also amended the terms of options previously granted to Mr Siemiatkowski to allow for exercise into 2,941,236 Class C shares (or 1,470,618 ordinary shares). Board and Committee composition changes. During the year, the Board was strengthened with two new non-executive director appointments: Markus Villig (Co-Founder and CEO of Bolt Technology OÜ) joined the Board in February 2025, and Mateusz Staniszewski (Co-Founder and CEO of ElevenLabs Inc.) joined in May 2025. Additionally, Niclas Neglén (Chief Financial Officer) was appointed as an executive director in February 2025. The following changes to remuneration arrangements occurred during 2025: Share subdivision. In March 2025, the Board approved a 1-for-12 share subdivision of the Company's ordinary shares, effected on 6 March 2025. This subdivision affected the number of shares underlying all existing and future equity awards, and all per-share figures and award numbers have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the subdivision throughout this report. Capital reduction and distributable reserves. In September 2025, the Company completed a capital reduction creating distributable reserves of approximately $4.6 billion, reallocated from share capital and additional paid-in capital to retained earnings. This transaction had no impact on total equity, profit or loss, or cash flows, but is relevant to the future ability to pay dividends and the operation of certain equity award arrangements. Introduction of Class C share structure. In connection with the IPO, the Company introduced a multi-class share capital structure comprising ordinary shares (one vote per share) and Class B shares (ten votes per share, no economic rights). Class C shares may be issued to Mr Siemiatkowski and certain related parties, each carrying ten votes per share and participating in dividends at half the rate of ordinary shares. The issuance of Class C shares is capped such that the voting rights attributable to all Class C shares KLARNA GROUP PLC 42 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

outstanding may not exceed 15% of the total voting rights of all shares outstanding immediately prior to the IPO. Repurchase of legacy warrants. During 2025, the Company, through Klarna Bank AB, repurchased an aggregate of 1,267,752 legacy warrants to acquire Klarna Holding AB ordinary shares held by employees and management. Of the repurchased warrants, 17,500 were held by members of the Company's management team. The Committee is satisfied that the remuneration arrangements in place during 2025 appropriately support the Group's strategy, are aligned with shareholders' long-term interests, and are consistent with the requirements of applicable legislation and the Group's remuneration policy. I welcome any dialogue with shareholders on remuneration matters. Yours faithfully, Omid R. Kordestani Chair, Remuneration and Nomination Committee Klarna Group plc March 10, 2026 Remuneration Philosophy and Objectives The aim of Klarna's remuneration programme is to attract and retain global talent, promote equal and fair treatment, and ensure that remuneration is aligned with efficient risk management and long- term shareholder value creation. The Remuneration and Nomination Committee — comprising Omid R. Kordestani (Chair), Andrew Reed, Michael J. Moritz and Sarah Smith — oversees the design and operation of the remuneration framework and approves all executive and director awards. The framework is structured to avoid excessive risk-taking or short-term profit pursuits that could undermine Klarna's long-term objectives. Variable remuneration takes into account individual, team and Group financial performance, as well as qualitative criteria including compliance with Klarna's policies, rules and applicable laws and regulations. Where criteria are not met, or where the Group's results or financial condition have been materially adversely affected, Klarna retains the right to reduce or clawback variable remuneration.

As Klarna Group plc has been the Group's ultimate parent entity only since May 2024, it is not practicable to present a five-year comparison as contemplated by Schedule 8 of the Large and Medium-sized Companies and Groups (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. The comparison will be extended in future years' reports as further data becomes available. During the same period the annual percentage change in an average employees total remuneration excluding the CEO was 4% to $111,100 in 2025 from $106,839 in 2024 converted using the closing fx rate at December 31, 2025. Expense Reimbursements In addition to the remuneration disclosed in the table above, the Company reimburses directors for reasonable expenses incurred in the performance of their duties in the normal course of business. Such expenses include travel, accommodation and other incidental costs incurred in connection with attending Board and Committee meetings and carrying out their responsibilities as directors of the Company. Expense reimbursements are not considered to form part of directors' remuneration for the purposes of this report and are not included in the figures set out in the Summary Remuneration Table above. Fixed and Variable Remuneration Fixed Remuneration Fixed remuneration comprises base salary, pension contributions and other benefits, together with Fixed Equity awards. Fixed Equity is awarded at the election of each eligible director in the form KLARNA GROUP PLC 44 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

of either share options exercisable at grant date or vested shares, in both cases subject to holding restrictions for retention purposes. Fixed Equity is not subject to performance conditions but serves to align director and officer interests with those of shareholders over the medium to long term through the operation of the applicable holding period. For the year ended 31 December 2025, total Fixed Equity awarded to all directors and officers amounted to $21.4 million. Variable Remuneration Variable remuneration comprises Variable Equity awards and, where applicable, an annual bonus. Variable Equity is performance-based in its design and purpose: it is linked to continued service and the long-term growth of shareholder value over a multi-year vesting period. Variable Equity awards vest at 25% per annum over a four-year period without the application of specific financial performance-linked targets; the time-based vesting schedule is itself considered a performance and retention mechanism, ensuring that value is delivered only where the participant remains committed to Klarna's long-term success. Variable Equity awards are made at the election of each eligible director in the form of share options or Restricted Share Units ("RSUs"). Share options are granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of the Company's ordinary shares on the date of grant. The number of ordinary shares receivable on exercise may be enhanced for certain senior awards to reflect the longer-term nature of the commitment and the level of seniority of the participant, as determined by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee. RSUs granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan vest into ordinary shares in Klarna Group plc and, on vesting, may be subject to a withholding arrangement to settle the participant's tax liability in accordance with applicable law. For the year ended 31 December 2025, total Variable Equity awarded across all directors and officers amounted to $33.5 million. On a Group-wide basis, variable equity represented approximately 55% of total remuneration, reflecting the Board's commitment to a strongly performance-aligned pay structure. CEO Long-Term Incentive and Equity Alignment In 2025, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee approved the grant of 17,505,672 Class C share options to Sebastian Siemiatkowski, the CEO and Co-Founder, under the C Share Awards Plan. These options vest in equal annual instalments over a four-year period. The weighted average exercise price, expressed as the equivalent of one ordinary share, is $91.8 — representing a substantial premium of approximately 130% to the IPO price of $40.00 per ordinary share at which Klarna listed on the New York Stock Exchange in September 2025. As of the date of the 20-F, these options are materially out of the money and no value is realisable by Mr. Siemiatkowski unless and until the ordinary share price exceeds the exercise price. This structure directly aligns the CEO's long-term incentive with the interests of shareholders who benefit from equivalent share price appreciation. Two Class C share options entitle the recipient to either one ordinary share or two Class C shares, at Mr. Siemiatkowski's election. The acquisition of Class C shares upon exercise is subject to an annual limit of 1.5% of issued and outstanding ordinary shares as of the last day of the preceding fiscal year, and the total voting rights attributable to all outstanding Class C shares may not at any time exceed 15% of total voting rights outstanding immediately prior to the Company's IPO. As of the date of this report, no Class C shares have been issued. The equity compensation amounts reported in the Summary Remuneration Table reflect grant- date fair values calculated in accordance with IFRS 2 and do not represent cash compensation received by, or value currently realisable by, Mr. Siemiatkowski.

Vesting Schedule All equity awards — both Fixed Equity (to the extent subject to holding restrictions) and Variable Equity — are designed to create a long-term alignment between the interests of directors, executive officers and shareholders. Variable Equity under both the RSU Programme and the share option plans vests at 25% per annum over a four-year period, subject to continued service. If a participant leaves Klarna prior to vesting, unvested awards are forfeited. This staggered vesting approach serves as a retention mechanism and ensures that realised value is proportionate to the participant's sustained contribution to Klarna's growth over time. Share options and warrants awarded under the Group's programmes are subject to vesting over a term of typically four to five years. The Remuneration and Nomination Committee retains discretion to determine the treatment of awards on termination of service or in the event of a change of control, including the ability to accelerate, substitute, or cancel outstanding awards. Malus and Clawback All equity award agreements entered into under the Omnibus Incentive Plan — encompassing RSUs, share options and other share-based awards — include customary malus and clawback provisions. These provisions enable the Company to cancel unvested awards (malus) or require the reimbursement of vested or exercised awards (clawback) in the event of, amongst other circumstances: • misconduct or a material breach of the Company's policies, rules or applicable laws and regulations; • a material misstatement of the Company's financial results; or • a material adverse effect on the Group's results of operations, financial condition or future prospects. These provisions apply to the extent permitted by applicable law and any relevant stock exchange rules, including the requirements of Section 10D of the Exchange Act and any rules promulgated thereunder. The existence of robust malus and clawback provisions reflects the Board's commitment to sound risk governance and its ability to respond to failures in conduct or financial performance by ensuring that variable pay outcomes remain appropriate in light of actual circumstances. Variable remuneration may also be unilaterally reduced or withdrawn prior to payment or vesting where the criteria underpinning the award are not met, or where the Group's performance, compliance record or risk profile warrants such action. Total Shareholder Return The graph below shows the total shareholder return ("TSR") on a holding of the Company's ordinary shares from admission to trading on the New York Stock Exchange on 10 September 2025 to 31 December 2025, compared to a hypothetical holding of shares making up the NYSE Composite Index over the same period. The NYSE Composite Index has been selected as the broad equity market comparator on the basis that it represents the most appropriate measure of general market KLARNA GROUP PLC 46 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

performance against which Klarna's TSR should be assessed, being the index of the exchange on which the Company's ordinary shares are listed and traded. TSR has been calculated assuming the reinvestment of dividends. No dividends were declared or paid by the Company during the period from admission to 31 December 2025. The graph has been prepared using a base value of 100 applied to the IPO price of $40.00 per ordinary share and to the closing level of the NYSE Composite Index on 10 September 2025, being the date of admission to trading. As Klarna Group plc was admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange on 10 September 2025, the graph covers only the period from the date of admission to 31 December 2025, being a period of approximately 113 days. This reflects the fact that 2025 is the first financial year in which the Company has been a quoted company within the meaning of Schedule 8 of the Large and Medium-sized Companies and Groups (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. In accordance with those Regulations, the graph will be extended in subsequent years' Directors' Remuneration Reports until a five-year performance period has been accumulated. Total Shareholder Return KLAR Indexed NYA Indexed 10/9/2025 30/09/2025 31/10/2025 28/11/2025 31/12/2025 0 25 50 75 100 125 During the period from admission to 31 December 2025, the TSR on a holding of the Company's ordinary shares was -27.73%, reflecting a closing share price of $28.91 on 31 December 2025 against the IPO price of $40. Over the same period, the NYSE Composite Index returned approximately 3.33%, reflecting the broader market context in which the Company operated during its first partial year as a listed company. The Remuneration and Nomination Committee notes this performance in the context of the remuneration outcomes described in this report, and in particular the structure of the CEO's long-term incentive award, which has a weighted average exercise price of approximately $91.80 per ordinary share equivalent which therefore remains materially out of the money as at the date of this report.

KLARNA GROUP PLC 48 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 6 Face value has been calculated by multiplying the number of awards granted by the closing market price of the Company's ordinary shares on the date of grant. For awards granted on 5 March 2025, a share price of $34.00 has been applied. For awards granted on 11 September 2025, a share price of $42.74 has been applied and for awards granted on 1 December 2025, a share price of $30.04 was applied. Face value does not represent the value realisable by the director or officer at the time of grant, nor does it take into account the exercise price payable on exercise of any share options or the probability of vesting. For share option awards, the face value represents the gross value of the ordinary shares underlying the award at the grant date price, before deduction of any exercise price.

Members throughout the year were: Omid R. Kordestani — Chair (independent non-executive director) Andrew Reed — Member (non-executive director) Sir Michael J. Moritz — Member (non-executive director) Sarah Smith — Member (independent non-executive director) At Klarna Bank AB level, following the discontinuation of the Remuneration Committee, the Board designated Omid R. Kordestani as Remuneration Oversight Director (ROD), responsible for preparing and presenting proposals to the Klarna Bank AB board on remuneration matters, including the Remuneration Policy and remuneration for members of the Group Management Team. The ROD conducts an annual independent evaluation of the Remuneration Policy and Klarna's remuneration system. Remuneration Program The aim of our remuneration program is to both support our ability to attract and retain global talent in every position at Klarna and promote equal and fair treatment, as well as to ensure that KLARNA GROUP PLC 49 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

remuneration is aligned with efficient risk management and compliant with applicable laws and regulations. Our remuneration framework acknowledges the necessity of globally aligned, well-balanced, yet differentiated executive compensation structures tailored to support Klarna’s global footprint. It emphasizes the importance of consistency with sound and efficient risk management practices, avoiding excessive risk-taking and short-term profit pursuits that could impede our long-term objectives. Additionally, where applicable, our remuneration program reflects the requirements of the Swedish banking regulations applicable to Klarna. Remuneration and Nomination Committee We have established a Remuneration and Nomination Committee, which supports our board of directors in establishing and reviewing the compensation and benefits strategy and guidelines as well as in preparing the proposals to the annual general meeting of shareholders regarding the compensation of the members of our board of directors and our executive officers. The committee may submit proposals to the board of directors on other compensation-related matters. Our Remuneration and Nomination Committee consists of Omid R. Kordestani, Andrew Reed, Michael J. Moritz and Sarah Smith, with Omid R. Kordestani serving as chairperson. Remuneration Policy Our board of directors has adopted a Remuneration Policy that is designed to be compatible with, and support, sound and effective risk management, avoid excessive risk-taking and promote our long-term interests. The Remuneration Policy and wider remuneration system are assessed annually. The assessment includes an analysis of all key risks we are or might be exposed to, including the risks associated with our Remuneration Policy and remuneration structure. The risk cycle in our credit business is assessed to be short, which means that any risks typically materialize within a few months. Shareholder Voting on Remuneration As Klarna Group plc was admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange on 10 September 2025, the Company has not yet held an Annual General Meeting as a quoted company at which a resolution to approve the Directors' Remuneration Report or the Directors' Remuneration Policy has been put to shareholders. Accordingly, no voting data is available for disclosure in this first report. The Directors' Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 December 2025 will be put to an advisory shareholder vote at the Company's first Annual General Meeting as a quoted company. The Directors' Remuneration Policy will also be put to a binding shareholder vote at that meeting in accordance with section 439A of the Companies Act 2006. The results of those votes will be disclosed in the Directors' Remuneration Report for the year ending 31 December 2026. Remuneration Structure We apply the following general principles on remuneration: • remuneration shall be set on an individual basis, based on experience, competence and performance; KLARNA GROUP PLC 50 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

• remuneration shall not be discriminating; and • remuneration shall be competitive, but not counterproductive to our long-term goals and ability to operate successfully throughout a full economic cycle. Our remuneration structure comprises fixed remuneration and variable remuneration. We strive to remain globally competitive with regard to the fixed and variable components while ensuring compliance with the banking regulations in Sweden, where applicable. Variable remuneration takes into consideration not only the employee’s and their team’s results but also our financial results and performance, as well as qualitative criteria such as the employee’s compliance with our policies, rules and processes as well as applicable laws and regulations. It should be based on results that are reflective of current and future risks. We aim to ensure that we can unilaterally decrease or withdraw all or parts of the variable remuneration if the aforementioned criteria are not met or if our results of operations, financial condition or future prospects have been materially adversely affected. Executive Officer Agreements We have entered into written employment agreements with each of our executive officers. These agreements generally provide for notice periods of 12 months (although some include a shorter notice period or no notice period) for termination of the agreement by us or by the relevant executive officer, generally during which time the executive officer will continue to receive base salary and benefits. These agreements also contain customary provisions regarding non- competition, non-solicitation, non-disparagement, confidentiality of information and/or assignment of inventions. However, the non-competition and non-solicitation provisions may be unenforceable or otherwise limited under applicable law. Equity-Related Programs The following section provides an overview of the equity-based programs available to our employees and certain third-party contributors. Certain of the equity-based instruments described below were issued by our subsidiaries and/or convert into ordinary shares of our subsidiaries. Employee Restricted Share Unit Program Our Restricted Share Unit Program (the “RSU Program”) was implemented in 2020. It is open to all employees as well as certain third-party contributors and currently entails grants of RSUs under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. Each participant is granted a set number of RSUs on the grant date, which generally vest over a four-year staggered vesting schedule, with 25% of the shares vesting each year. If the participant leaves Klarna, unvested RSUs are forfeited. Participants in the RSU Program who were granted RSUs under the Omnibus Incentive Plan receive ordinary shares in Klarna Group plc upon vesting of those RSUs. All other RSUs vest into shares of subsidiaries of Klarna Group plc, and, as a result, we plan to periodically facilitate the exchange of these subsidiary shares issued upon vesting of those RSUs into ordinary shares of Klarna Group plc. The number of shares distributed to our employees under the RSU Program is approved by our board of directors. Upon vesting, in accordance with certain countries’ tax laws, we are required to withhold an amount to settle the employee’s tax associated with a share-based payment and transfer that amount in cash to taxing authorities on the employee’s behalf. Such amounts are withheld from our KLARNA GROUP PLC 51 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

employees in accordance with applicable laws, either through deduction of salary or withholding a number of vested shares. Share Warrants and Options In certain jurisdictions, we offer share-based payments to certain individual contributors, including employees as well as executive officers and directors, in the form of share warrants and options to purchase ordinary shares. These awards are subject to staggered vesting over a term of typically four to five years. Such awards were historically issued by Klarna Holding and certain of our other indirect subsidiaries. One share warrant issued by a subsidiary of Klarna Group plc entitles the recipient to purchase one ordinary share of Klarna Holding or of certain other of our indirect subsidiaries (such shares, “subsidiary shares”) at the agreed exercise price. One share option or warrant issued by Klarna Group plc entitles the recipient to purchase one ordinary share in Klarna Group plc at the agreed adjusted exercise price. Certain warrants and options have been acquired by individual contributors in exchange for a cash payment of the fair market value measured at the grant date. We have also granted warrants to acquire our ordinary shares or ordinary shares of certain of our subsidiaries to select partners, including merchants and other service providers, in return for services. We granted 15.7 million and 1.3 million of such warrants to certain partners in the years ended 2025 and 2024, respectively, of which 15,239,419 were outstanding as of the date of this report. Additionally, in the twelve months ended months ended December 31, 2025, we granted 108,960 ordinary shares and 8,834,736 share options to acquire ordinary shares to certain members of our management team. The table below includes additional details regarding RSUs, share warrants and options, issued by Klarna Group plc as of, and for the year ended, December 31, 2025. The Class C share options column relates exclusively to options granted to Mr. Siemiatkowski under the C Share Awards Plan. Weighted average exercise prices for Class C share options are expressed as the equivalent of one Class C share; as described above, two Class C share options correspond to either one ordinary share or two Class C shares, and the exercise price expressed as the equivalent of one ordinary share is approximately double the per-Class-C-share figures shown.

Class C shares carry enhanced voting rights. The acquisition of Class C shares upon exercise is subject to the limits described under "Equity Compensation paid to Mr. Siemiatkowski" above. All Class C share options outstanding as of December 31, 2025 were granted exclusively to Mr. Siemiatkowski. 3 In 2025, the board of directors amended the terms of 1,477,164 share options originally granted to Mr. Siemiatkowski in the fourth quarter of 2024 to allow such options to be exercised into 2,941,236 Class C shares (or 1,470,618 ordinary shares). The amendment did not alter the original exercise price of the underlying options; the weighted average exercise price of $19.1, expressed as the equivalent of one Class C share, reflects the conversion ratio under which two Class C share options correspond to one ordinary share. No incremental fair value was transferred to Mr. Siemiatkowski as a result of this amendment. KLARNA GROUP PLC 53 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Incentive Plan shall be increased on the first day of each fiscal year following the effective date of the Omnibus Incentive Plan in an amount equal to the least of (i) 5% of outstanding ordinary shares on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (ii) such number of ordinary shares as determined by the board of directors in its sole discretion. Share Options. The Remuneration Committee is permitted to grant share options under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. With respect to share options granted to a participant subject to U.S. federal income tax law, the exercise price of a share option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share on the grant date (other than in the case of substitute Awards). Each share option will expire no later than the tenth anniversary of the date the share option is granted. Share Appreciation Rights. The Remuneration Committee is permitted to grant SARs under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. With respect to SARs granted to a participant subject to U.S. federal income tax, the exercise or hurdle price of a SAR may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share on the grant date (other than in the case of substitute Awards). Each SAR will expire no later than the tenth anniversary of the date the SAR is granted. Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units. The Remuneration Committee is permitted to grant restricted shares and RSUs under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. A restricted share Award is an award of ordinary shares that is subject to restrictions on transfer and a substantial risk of forfeiture. An RSU is an Award that is granted with respect to one ordinary share or has a value equal to the fair market value of one such share. RSUs shall be settled in ordinary shares except that where the Remuneration Committee determines otherwise, in which case, RSUs may be paid in cash equal to the fair market value of the shares in respect of which the RSUs are settled. Performance Awards. The Omnibus Incentive Plan permits the grant of performance-based share Awards. The Remuneration Committee may structure Awards so that ordinary shares will be issued only following the achievement of certain pre-established performance goals during a designated performance period determined by the Remuneration Committee. Performance Awards shall be settled in ordinary shares except that where the Remuneration Committee determines otherwise, in which case, performance Awards may be paid in cash equal to the fair market value of the shares in respect of which the performance Awards are settled. Other Cash-Based and Other Share-Based Awards. The Remuneration Committee is permitted to grant other equity or equity-based Awards and cash-based Awards on such terms and conditions as the Committee determines and such Awards may or may not require vesting or any other terms or conditions and can take the form of fully-vested shares, if so determined by the Remuneration Committee. For Awards in the nature of a purchase right, the purchase price shall not be less than the fair market value of such ordinary shares on the date of grant of such right in respect of any such Award granted to a participant subject to U.S. federal income tax law. Changes in Capitalization. In the event the Remuneration Committee determines that, as a result of a change affecting the Company or its securities, an adjustment is necessary in order to prevent undue enrichment or harm, the Remuneration Committee will equitably adjust any or all of (i) the number and type of ordinary shares that thereafter may be made the subject of Awards under the Omnibus Incentive Plan (including the share limit) and (ii) the terms of any outstanding Award, including the exercise price and the number or type of ordinary shares or other securities of the Company or other property subject to outstanding Awards. Effect of Termination of Service or a Change in Control. The Remuneration Committee may provide, by rule or regulation or in any applicable Award agreement, or may determine in any KLARNA GROUP PLC 55 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

individual case, an Award may be exercised, settled, vested, paid or forfeited in the event of a participant’s termination of service prior to the vesting, exercise or settlement of such Award. In the event of a change in control of the Company, the Remuneration Committee may take any one or more of the following actions with respect to any outstanding Award: (i) continuation, (ii) substitution or replacement, (iii) acceleration of the vesting and the lapse of any restrictions either immediately prior to or after the change in control or upon termination of service under certain circumstances following the change in control and, in the case of a performance Award, the determination of the level of attainment of the applicable performance condition(s), and (iv) cancellation of such Award in consideration of a payment or, in certain circumstances, for no consideration. Awards granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan may be subject to acceleration of vesting and exercisability upon or after a change in control as may be provided in the applicable Award agreement or in any other written agreement between the Company or any of its subsidiaries and the participant. Clawback. Under the Omnibus Incentive Plan, Awards (including any amounts or benefits arising from such Awards) will be subject to any clawback or recoupment arrangements or policies we may have in place from time to time, and the Remuneration Committee may, to the extent permitted by applicable law and stock exchange rules or by any applicable company policy or arrangement, and will, to the extent required, cancel or require reimbursement of any Awards or any shares issued or cash received upon vesting, exercise or settlement of any such Awards or sale of shares underlying such Awards, including any policies necessary to comply with Section 10D of the Exchange Act and any rules promulgated thereunder and any other regulatory regimes. Amendment. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law and unless otherwise expressly provided in an Award agreement or in the Plan, our board of directors may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Omnibus Incentive Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided that no such amendment, alternation, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without (i) shareholder approval if such approval is required by applicable law or the rules of the stock market or exchange on which the shares are principally quoted or trade, or (ii) subject to limitations, the consent of the affected participant of the Omnibus Incentive Plan if such action would materially adversely affect the rights of such participant under any outstanding Award. Repricing. Our board of directors may, without shareholder approval, seek to effect any re- pricing of any previously granted “underwater” share options, SARs or similar Award, including (i) amending or modifying the terms of the share options, SARs or similar Awards to lower the exercise price, (ii) cancelling the underwater share options, SARs or similar Awards and granting (A) replacement share options, SARs or similar Awards having a lower exercise price or (B) restricted shares, RSUs, performance Awards or other share-based Awards in exchange, or (iii) cancelling or repurchasing the underwater share options, SARs or similar Awards for cash or other securities. Term. No Award may be granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan after the tenth anniversary of its adoption. Previously granted Awards are permitted to extend beyond the termination date of the Omnibus Incentive Plan. Jurisdictional Modifications. The Remuneration Committee may modify awards or establish sub- plans or procedures to address differences in laws, rules, regulations or customs of such international jurisdictions with respect to tax, securities, currency, employee benefit or other matters KLARNA GROUP PLC 56 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

or to enable awards to be granted in compliance with a tax favorable regime that may be available in any jurisdiction. Non-Employee Plan. The Non-Employee Plan governs equity awards granted to our non- employee directors, consultants, advisers, employees of record and other non-employee service providers and generally provides for awards to be made on identical terms to awards made under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. C Share Awards Plan. The C Share Awards Plan is part of the Omnibus Incentive Plan and is designed to align Mr. Siemiatkowski's long-term incentives with the interests of shareholders over a multi-year horizon, while maintaining governance safeguards that limit the extent of enhanced voting rights that may be acquired. Under this Plan, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee may grant to Mr. Siemiatkowski awards in the form of Class C shares or securities, such as options, convertible into Class C shares. In 2025, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee granted Mr. Siemiatkowski options over 17,505,672 Class C shares under this Plan, as described under "Equity Compensation paid to Mr. Siemiatkowski" above. Upon exercise of Class C options, Mr. Siemiatkowski may elect to acquire, in his discretion, either ordinary shares or Class C shares. Class C shares carry enhanced voting rights; however, Mr. Siemiatkowski's acquisition of Class C shares upon exercise of Class C options in any year is subject to a limit of 1.5% of the number of issued and outstanding ordinary shares on the last day of the fiscal year preceding such acquisition. In addition, pursuant to our articles of association, we will not issue any Class C shares in the number that would make the voting rights corresponding to all such Class C shares outstanding at any time exceed 15% of the voting rights corresponding to all of our shares outstanding immediately prior to the Company's initial public offering. As of the date of this report, no Class C shares have been issued. Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance We maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance We maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering our directors and executive officers for acts performed in the course of their duties. Indemnification Agreements We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers. These indemnification agreements provide our directors and executive officers with contractual rights to indemnification and expense reimbursement to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. We also provided indemnification to such persons to the fullest extent permitted by law, for their service at our request as directors or officers of any of our subsidiaries.

Statement of Directors' Responsibilities The directors of Klarna Group Plc ("the Company") are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and Financial Statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. The Companies Act 2006 requires directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of its profit or loss for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to: • Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; • Present information, including accounting policies, in a manner that provides relevant, reliable, comparable, and understandable information; • Provide additional disclosures when compliance with specific requirements of the financial reporting framework are insufficient to enable users to understand the impact of particular transactions, other events, and conditions on the entity’s financial position and financial performance; • Make an assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The directors have a general responsibility to take steps to safeguard the assets of the Company and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities. The directors are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy, at any time, the financial position of the Company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. Directors have had regard to the matters set out in section 172(1) of the Companies Act 2006 when performing their duty to act in the way most likely to promote the success of the Company for the benefit of its members as a whole. The Statement of Directors’ Responsibilities comprising page 61 was approved by the Board and signed on its behalf by: /s/ Boudien Moerman Boudien Moerman Company Secretary & Chief Legal Officer Klarna Group plc March 10, 2026 KLARNA GROUP PLC 61 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF KLARNA GROUP PLC Opinion In our opinion: • Klarna Group plc’s Group financial statements and Parent Company financial statements (the “financial statements”) give a true and fair view of the state of the Group’s and of the Parent Company’s affairs as at 31 December 2025 and of the Group’s loss for the year then ended; • the Group financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with UK adopted international accounting standards; • the Parent Company financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with UK adopted international accounting standards as applied in accordance with section 408 of the Companies Act; and • the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. We have audited the financial statements of Klarna Group Plc (the ‘Parent Company’) and its subsidiaries (the ‘Group’) for the year ended 31 December 2025 which comprise: Group Parent Company Consolidated balance sheet as of 31 December 2025 Balance sheet as of 31 December 2025 Consolidated statement of profit or loss for the year then ended Statement of shareholders’ equity for the year then ended Consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the year then ended Related notes 1 to 7 to the financial statements including: material accounting policy information Consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity for the year then ended Consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended Related notes 1 to 27 to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and UK adopted international accounting standards and as regards to the Parent Company financial statements, as applied in accordance with section 408 of the Companies Act 2006. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group and Parent Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard as applied to listed KLARNA GROUP PLC 62 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

entities, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Conclusions relating to going concern In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Our evaluation of the directors’ assessment of the Group and Parent Company’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting included: • We confirmed our understanding of the Financial Statement Close Process, and the process undertaken by the directors to assess going concern. • We obtained the directors’ going concern assessment, which covers the period of 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Using our understanding of the business, we evaluated the assessment considering the nature of the entity and its operations and financial performance. • We obtained the Group’s latest business plan, which forecasts the Group’s performance to 31 December 2027, and has been used as the basis of the going concern assessment. Management has modelled stress scenarios to the financial plans to incorporate unexpected changes to the forecast profitability, capital and liquidity. • We assessed the results of the stress and reverse stress testing and evaluated the feasibility of Management’s planned future actions should stress scenarios materialise. • We considered whether there were other events subsequent to the balance sheet date which could have a bearing on the going concern conclusion. • We reviewed regulatory correspondence and Board meeting minutes to identify events or conditions that may impact the Group or the Parent Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. • We reviewed the going concern disclosures included in the annual report to assess whether the disclosures were appropriate and in conformity with the reporting standards. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Group and Parent Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. However, because not all future events or conditions can be predicted, this statement is not a guarantee as to the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Overview of our audit approach Audit scope • We performed an audit of the complete financial information of the Group and Parent Company. • Substantially all audit procedures were performed centrally by the integrated group team, except for specific tax balances in three components, for which component audit teams performed specified procedures. This is outlined in further detail in the Tailoring the scope section of our report. Key audit matters • Allowance for Expected Credit Losses (“ECL”) for customer receivables • Merchant Fees Materiality • Overall Group and Parent Company materiality of $26m (2024: $14m) which represents 0.8% (2024: 0.5%) of Group Revenue. An overview of the scope of the Parent Company and Group audits Tailoring the scope Our audit scoping has been performed in line with the requirements of ISA (UK) 600 (Revised). We have followed a risk-based approach when developing our audit approach to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence on which to base our audit opinion. We performed risk assessment procedures to identify and assess risks of material misstatement of the Group financial statements and identified significant accounts and disclosures. When identifying the extent to which audit work needed to be performed to respond to the identified risks of material misstatement of the Group financial statements, we considered our understanding of the Group and its business environment, the potential impact of climate change, the applicable financial framework, the Group’s system of internal control at the entity level, the existence of centralised processes, applications and any relevant internal audit results. We considered that all significant elements of the Group’s finance and accounting are situated and managed between the Parent Company’s head office in Stockholm, Sweden, together with its office in London, England, where the Parent Company is domiciled. The Group operates under one common control environment and the majority of the operations of the Group are managed from these locations. Substantially all audit work performed for the purpose of the audit, other than tax balances in three components, was undertaken by the group audit team as an integrated audit engagement team consisting of team members located in the UK and Sweden. Specified procedures were performed over the three components’ tax balances. As an integrated engagement team, all work performed by the group audit team was documented in a shared electronic workspace. The audit plan was developed jointly and both teams were involved in the execution of the plan and in the consideration of areas of significant judgement and estimation. The group audit team performed all audit work relating to the allowance for expected credit loss and merchant fees key audit matters outlined later in this report. During the course of the audit, the Senior Statutory Auditor and other senior UK-based members of the group team supervised the members of the team who were based in Stockholm, Sweden. These UK team members held regular meetings with management and the Sweden-based audit team via video conference meetings to direct and supervise the audit, and the UK-based team continued to access the audit documentation through the shared electronic workspace. Audit planning meetings were held in London, attended by UK and Sweden based members of the group team and UK-based team members were also present in Stockholm at the year end phase of the audit. Senior KLARNA GROUP PLC 64 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Sweden-based members of the group audit team regularly visited London throughout the year to meet with management and the UK-based members of the team. Involvement with component teams In establishing our overall approach to the Group audit, we determined the type of work that needed to be undertaken by us, as the integrated group audit team, or by component auditors from other EY global network firms operating under our instruction. Due to the centralised operations of the Group, substantially all audit procedures were performed by the group audit team. Where specified procedures were required to be performed by component auditors, we determined the appropriate level of involvement to enable us to determine that sufficient audit evidence had been obtained as a basis for our opinion on the Group as a whole. The group audit team interacted as appropriate with the component teams throughout the audit, including via video conference meetings to provide updates on the Group, the audit approach and matters arising from the component audits. The group audit team also reviewed relevant audit working papers prepared by the component audit teams. The combination of the centralised procedures performed by the group audit team, together with the specified procedures performed by the component audit teams, gave us appropriate evidence for our opinion on the Group financial statements. Climate change Stakeholders are increasingly interested in how climate change will impact Klarna Group plc. The Group has determined that the most significant future impacts from climate change on its operations will be from physical and transition risks. These are explained on pages 32-36 in the required Task Force On Climate Related Financial Disclosures and on pages 27-30 in the principal risks and uncertainties. They have also explained their climate commitments on page 36. All of these disclosures form part of the “other information,” rather than the audited financial statements. Our procedures on these unaudited disclosures therefore consisted solely of considering whether they are materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appear to be materially misstated, in line with our responsibilities on “other information”. In planning and performing our audit we assessed the potential impacts of climate change on the Group’s business and any consequential material impact on its financial statements. The Group has explained in its Climate-Related Financial Disclosures how it has reflected the impact of climate change in the financial statements. There are no significant judgements or estimates relating to climate change in the notes to the financial statements as the Group’s exposure to both physical and transition climate risk is assessed as low across all financial statement line items. In the Climate-Related Financial Disclosures section, narrative explanation of the impact of Current Policies, Delayed Transition, and Net Zero 2050 climate scenarios developed by the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) have been provided. Our audit effort in considering the impact of climate change on the financial statements was focused on evaluating Management’s assessment of the impact of climate risk, physical and transition, their climate commitments, the effects of material climate risks disclosed on pages 32-36 and whether these have been appropriately reflected following the requirements of UK adopted international accounting standards. As part of this evaluation, we performed our own risk KLARNA GROUP PLC 65 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

assessment to determine the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements from climate change which needed to be considered in our audit. We also challenged the Directors’ considerations of climate change risks in their assessment of going concern and associated disclosures. Where considerations of climate change were relevant to our assessment of going concern, these are described above. Based on our work we have not identified the impact of climate change on the financial statements to be a key audit matter or to impact a key audit matter. Key audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period and include the most significant assessed risks of material misstatement (whether or not due to fraud) that we identified. These matters included those which had the greatest effect on: the overall audit strategy, the allocation of resources in the audit; and directing the efforts of the engagement team. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Risk Our response to the risk Allowance for Expected Credit Losses (“ECL”) for consumer receivables Refer to Accounting policies (page 78); and Note 6 of the Consolidated Financial Statements (page 102) At 31 December 2025, the Group recorded consumer receivables of $10,459m (2024: $8,141m) net of allowances for credit losses of $492m (2024: $332m). Allowances for expected credit losses are based on the individual loan’s estimated repayment performance and the evaluation of accumulated credit risk by product, geography, and days past due. The probability of default, magnitude of estimated loss, and expected changes in exposure are derived from historical internal and external data. Auditing the allowance for ECL was complex due to the estimation uncertainty in loan repayment performance, accumulated credit risk assumptions, the highly automated nature of the Group’s consumer receivable process, and the complexity of the models and assumptions used to calculate ECL. To test the Group’s allowance for ECL our audit procedures included, among others, testing inputs and assumptions used in management’s model calculations including but not limited to, days past due, historical loan performance and probability of default. With the support of our internal specialists, we performed procedures on certain models used to determine the allowance for ECL, including, new model implementation testing, assessment of model performance, and sensitivity analyses. We evaluated the Group’s validation procedures over a sample of models, and assessed the potential impact of future economic conditions and the application of historical internal and external data by comparing realised losses to previous estimates made by management. Key observations communicated to the Audit Committee We communicated that the allowance for expected credit losses provision is free from material misstatement as at 31 December 2025. Risk Our response to the risk KLARNA GROUP PLC 66 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Merchant Fees Refer to Accounting policies (page 78 and Note 4 of the Consolidated Financial Statements (page 99) At 31 December 2025, the Group reported Transaction and service revenue of $2,500m (2024: $2,136m). This includes merchant revenue, which primarily refers to merchant fees. Merchant fees are derived from the volume of consumer transactions processed and a combination of value-based and fixed pricing. The transaction price is recognised at the point in time when the merchant successfully confirms the transaction, which is when the terms of the contract are fulfilled. A reduction of merchant fees to certain merchants is provided based on performance measures, including volume of processed transactions. Auditing merchant fees was complex due to the judgment required to assess management’s accounting for key terms and conditions within certain merchant contracts. Our audit procedures to test merchant fees included among others, on a sample basis, reviewing and evaluating merchant contracts, including those with performance measures. We tested transactions with value-based and fixed pricing terms and recalculated merchant fees by comparing rates within contracts to transaction data. We tested occurrence and evaluated completeness by reviewing consumer transaction evidence and comparing merchant fee amounts to subsequent cash settlements. Key observations communicated to the Audit Committee We communicated that merchant fee revenue is free from material misstatement for the year ending 31 December 2025. Our application of materiality We apply the concept of materiality in planning and performing the audit, in evaluating the effect of identified misstatements on the audit and in forming our audit opinion. Materiality The magnitude of an omission or misstatement that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of the users of the financial statements. Materiality provides a basis for determining the nature and extent of our audit procedures. We determined materiality for the Group and the Parent Company to be $26 million (2024: $14 million), which is 0.8% (2024: 0.5%) of Group Revenue. We believe that Group Revenue provides us with the most appropriate basis on which to set materiality as this is a primary focus of the users of the financial statements when assessing the Group and Company’s performance. It is also a key metric considered by current and potential investors in the Parent Company. Performance materiality The application of materiality at the individual account or balance level. It is set at an amount to reduce to an appropriately low level the probability that the aggregate of uncorrected and undetected misstatements exceeds materiality. KLARNA GROUP PLC 67 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

On the basis of our risk assessments, together with our assessment of the Group’s overall control environment, our judgement was that performance materiality was 50% (2024: 50%) of our planning materiality, namely $13m (2024: $7m). We have set performance materiality at this percentage based on our understanding of the effectiveness of the Group and Parent Company’s control environment and our expectation of the likelihood of misstatements being identified. Audit work was undertaken at component locations for the purpose of responding to the assessed risks of material misstatement of the Group financial statements. The performance materiality set for each component is based on the relative scale and risk of the component to the Group as a whole and our assessment of the risk of misstatement at that component. s Reporting threshold An amount below which identified misstatements are considered as being clearly trivial. We agreed with the Audit Committee that we would report to them all uncorrected audit differences in excess of $1.3m (2024: $0.7m), which is set at 5% of planning materiality, as well as differences below that threshold that, in our view, warranted reporting on qualitative grounds. We evaluate any uncorrected misstatements against both the quantitative measures of materiality discussed above and in light of other relevant qualitative considerations in forming our opinion. Other information The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in this report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of the other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 In our opinion, the part of the directors’ remuneration report to be audited has been properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006. In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: KLARNA GROUP PLC 68 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

• the information given in the strategic report and the directors’ report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and • the strategic report and directors’ report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. Matters on which we are required to report by exception In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and the Parent Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Directors’ Report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: • adequate accounting records have not been kept by the Parent Company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or • the Parent Company financial statements and the part of the directors’ remuneration report to be audited are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or • certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or • we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit Responsibilities of directors As explained more fully in the directors’ responsibilities statement set out on page 61, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group and Parent Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or the Parent Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud KLARNA GROUP PLC 69 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect irregularities, including fraud. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both Those Charged with Governance of the Group and Management. • We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the Group and determined that the most significant are the relevant laws and regulations relating to elements of company law, supervisory requirements of financial regulators, the financial reporting framework and the regulations of the listing authorities where the Group’s equity and debt is listed. • We understood how the Group and Parent Company is complying with those frameworks by reviewing Board meeting minutes, attending the Group’s Audit Committee, reviewing correspondence between the Parent Company and key regulators, holding discussions with the Group’s legal team and internal audit and inquiring as to whether there were any known instances of non-compliance or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations. We also reviewed the Group’s Whistleblowing policy and reports. • We assessed the susceptibility of the Group’s financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur by holding discussions with Senior Management, Those Charged with Governance, internal audit and the Audit Committee. We also reviewed the Group’s key policies and procedures over fraud prevention, detection and correction. • Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulations. Our procedures involved the testing of key areas of judgement and estimation; and involved inquiries with legal counsel, Management and internal audit. We reviewed the correspondence exchanged between the Parent Company and its regulators and gained an understanding of any regulatory investigations and enforcement actions being undertaken, performing our own analysis as required. We also tested journal entries using a risk-based approach. • The Group and Parent Company operate in the financial services sector which is a highly regulated environment. As such the Senior Statutory Auditor considered the experience and expertise of the engagement team to ensure that the team had the appropriate competence and capabilities, which included the use of specialists where appropriate. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report. Use of our report This report is made solely to the Parent Company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Parent Company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an KLARNA GROUP PLC 70 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Parent Company and the Parent Company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Note 1 Corporate information Klarna Group plc is a public company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of England and Wales. The consolidated financial statements consist of Klarna Group plc and its direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, “Klarna,” the “Company,” the “Group,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). Klarna is a technology-driven payments company, with operations spanning multiple countries. We connect consumers and merchants with comprehensive payment solutions and tailored advertising solutions, both online and offline. Our payment solutions provide consumers with more control and flexibility over their payments. On September 10, 2025, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 5,000,000 ordinary shares, completed the sale of additional 29,311,274 ordinary shares from “selling shareholders” and on September 22, 2025, completed the sale of 5,146,691 of additional ordinary shares to the underwriters pursuant to their option to purchase additional shares, at an offering price of $40.00 per share. The Company raised net proceeds of $169 million through the IPO, net of underwriting discounts and other offering costs of $22.41 million. Directly attributable transaction costs related to the issuance of new ordinary shares of $8.5 million were deducted from equity. These costs, primarily underwriting fees, were offset against the gross proceeds recognized in Additional paid in capital. The Company’s registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-290150) registering shares under its employee equity plans, was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 10, 2025. Note 2 Accounting principles 1. Basis of preparation and consolidation The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with UK-adopted international accounting standards in conformity with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006, and have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for equity investments, derivatives and consumer receivables at fair value through profit and loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income, which have been measured at fair value, and lease liabilities, which are measured at present value. These consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. All amounts in the notes to the consolidated financial statements are stated in millions of United States Dollars (“USD”), unless otherwise stated. On May 23, 2024, Klarna Holding AB (publ) completed a reorganization which resulted in Klarna Group plc becoming the new ultimate parent company of the Group. Through a series of share for share exchange steps, the shareholders of Klarna Holding AB (publ) exchanged their shares for an equal number of shares in Klarna Group plc. As a result of our corporate reorganization, Klarna Group plc became our ultimate holding company and the parent company of Klarna Holding AB (publ). There was no change in the legal ownership of any of the assets of Klarna Holding AB (publ), nor any change in the ultimate controlling ownership of existing shares or securities of Klarna Holding AB (publ) or Klarna Group plc as a result of the reorganization. The accounting predecessor of Klarna Group plc is Klarna Holding AB (publ). The exchange has been presented on a retrospective basis as a reorganization transaction beginning in the earliest period presented. Additional paid in capital as at December 31, 2024 includes $4.2 billion non-distributable merger reserve related to the KLARNA GROUP PLC 78 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

reorganization. In September 2025, the Company completed a capital reduction creating distributable reserves of approximately $4.6 billion, reallocated from share capital and additional paid-in capital to retained earnings. Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed, or has right to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The consolidated subsidiaries of Klarna are consolidated as from the date when control is transferred to Klarna and deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. All intercompany accounts and transactions between members of the Group have been eliminated on consolidation. Going Concern The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Directors are satisfied that the Group has adequate resources to continue in business for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. In making this assessment, the Directors considered the Group’s liquidity and capital position, access to funding, financial forecasts, and potential risks. The assessment included review of projected profitability, as well as stress testing results performed under the Group’s internal capital and liquidity assessment processes. These demonstrated that the Group is expected to maintain appropriate headroom above regulatory capital and liquidity thresholds, even in downside scenarios. The Directors also considered available management actions in the event of adverse conditions. Based on this assessment, the Directors concluded that there are no material uncertainties that cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the use of the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements is appropriate. Share Split In March 2025, Klarna Group plc’s board of directors approved a subdivision of ordinary shares of Klarna Group plc on a 1-to-12 basis (the “Share Split”), which was effected on March 6, 2025. Refer to Note 21 for further details. Accordingly, all share data and per share data amounts for all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the effect of the Share Split. 2. New and amended standards and interpretations Standards and amendments effective for the year No significant new IFRS standards, amendments or interpretations applicable to the Group became effective during the period. New standards and amendments issued but not yet effective In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements” that replaces IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements.” IFRS 18 introduces new requirements for information presented in the primary financial statements and disclosed in the notes. IFRS 18 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, but earlier adoption is permitted. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of this standard. KLARNA GROUP PLC 79 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

In May 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” and IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures,” clarifying recognition and derecognition principles and introducing an exception for the early derecognition of certain financial liabilities settled electronically. The amendments also provide guidance on assessing contractual cash flow characteristics and introduce new disclosure requirements. These amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026, with earlier adoption permitted. The Group is currently evaluating their impact. The Group has not early adopted any issued standards, interpretations or amendments that are not yet effective. 3. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, as well as the disclosure of contingent liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to provisions for credit losses, revenue recognition, income taxes, the evaluation for impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, contingent liabilities, securitizations, leases, divestitures and share-based compensation, including the fair value of restricted share units, options and warrants issued. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions which we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. Macroeconomic and geopolitical developments may adversely impact consumer spending, merchant performance and counterparty creditworthiness. These conditions may introduce additional uncertainties that can affect the global economy and, consequently, the Group’s operations. These factors are considered into credit loss estimates and other significant accounting estimates. 4. Foreign currency translation Presentation currency and functional currency The financial statements are presented in USD. In general, each entity within the Group uses the currency of its primary economic environment as its functional currency. For Klarna Group plc, the functional currency is USD. The assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries are translated from the functional currency of the operations to USD using the exchange rates at the reporting date. The revenues and expenses are translated to USD using average exchange rates, which approximate the exchange rates at the date of the transaction. All resulting foreign exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) and included in foreign exchange translation reserve in equity. Foreign currency transactions Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the respective entity are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate on the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are remeasured using the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Any foreign KLARNA GROUP PLC 80 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

exchange gains or losses arising from the remeasurement of these monetary assets and liabilities are recognized in other income (expense) in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. 5. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in hand, demand deposits with banks, short-term treasury bills and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. 6. Debt securities Debt securities primarily comprise treasury bills chargeable at central banks with original maturities of more than three months, mandatory deposits at central banks, and bonds and other interest-bearing securities. The Group classifies investments as financial assets measured at amortized cost, with interest recognized within interest income in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. 7. Consumer receivables Consumer receivables represent unsecured amounts due from consumers that elect to pay over time either through Pay Later or Fair Financing options as well as receivables related to other consumer fees as discussed in our revenue recognition accounting principles. Pay Later consumer receivables arise from transactions that enable consumers to purchase goods or services at the time of the transaction and defer payment to a later date or in short-term installments (e.g., Pay in 30, Pay in 3, Pay in 4). Fair Financing consumer receivables arise from transactions that enable consumers to pay for purchases over a longer-term installment plan, typically ranging from three to 48 months. Consumer receivables that Klarna has the objective of holding to collect contractual cash flows are measured at amortized cost, including outstanding principal balances, accrued interest and net of allowances for expected credit losses. Consumer receivables which are managed within a business model whose objective is to originate and sell or within a hold-to-collect-and-sell business model are measured either at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) or fair value through OCI (“FVOCI”) and presented separately on the consolidated balance sheet. 8. Settlement and trade receivables Settlement and trade receivables primarily include receivables from payment solution providers (“PSPs”), amounts due from merchants for services and receivables from third-party debt collection agencies and financial institutions. Settlement and trade receivables are reported at amortized cost net of an allowance for expected credit losses. 9. Allowance for expected credit losses Klarna estimates allowances for expected credit losses (“ECL”) for debt securities, consumer receivables and settlement and trade receivables. The ECL allowance is based on either 12-month expected credit losses (“12m ECL”) or on lifetime expected credit losses (“Lifetime ECL”). The ECL allowance is based on the latter if the simplified approach, as defined by IFRS 9, is applicable or if there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. KLARNA GROUP PLC 81 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Lifetime ECL and 12m ECL are calculated on a collective basis at an asset class level. The asset class is defined by shared credit risk characteristics, which are generally by market and geography. Debt securities Klarna invests in treasury bills issued by central banks, loans to highly rated financial institutions and bonds issued by highly rated government entities. The credit rating status of issuing entities is monitored throughout the investment holding period. The high credit quality of the issuers results in a low probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default resulting in an immaterial ECL estimate for debt securities. Consumer receivables To measure the ECL for consumer receivables, the Group assigns outstanding loans to one of three stages with the stage corresponding to the individual loan’s estimated repayment performance. The estimated repayment performance is informed by the Group’s records, including the customer’s history with Klarna and purchase behavior from active Klarna consumers, merchant data, credit bureau reports and open banking data. Klarna defines the stages as follows: Stage 1: New loan origination that is not credit impaired at origination. A loan remains in Stage 1 unless there is a significant increase in credit risk (“SICR”), such as when a loan becomes 30 days or more past due or if the consumer has other loans that are in Stage 2 or 3. While a consumer could have a loan that did not experience SICR, if they have a loan in Stage 2 or 3, Klarna applies a more prudent approach to all loans for the consumer as part of its risk management practices. A loan may also be transferred back to Stage 1 if credit risk has significantly improved and it is not delinquent 30 or more days. For Stage 1 loans, the allowance is calculated based on 12-month ECL. Stage 2: Loan with an observed significant increase in credit risk since origination. Klarna defines significant increase in credit risk as a loan with an outstanding balance more than 30 days overdue. The allowance for these loans is calculated based on Lifetime ECL. Stage 2 also includes loans that are reclassified from Stage 3 because they are no longer considered credit impaired. Stage 3: Loan considered credit impaired. A loan is defined as credit impaired if it is 90 days past due or is classified as fraudulent. The allowance for Stage 3 loans is calculated based on Lifetime ECL. A loan may be reclassified from Stage 3 if it is no longer considered credit impaired. Settlement and trade receivables For settlement and trade receivables, Klarna estimates credit losses using the Lifetime ECL model. Each counterparty is subject to a credit risk assessment at onboarding and periodically throughout its relationship with Klarna. Based on the credit risk assessment, a counterparty is assigned a risk classification that correlates to a probability of default. For higher risk counterparties, Klarna extends settlement windows for payments to the counterparties to serve as collateral for their non-performance if a consumer returns products. When a settlement and trade receivable is determined to be uncollectible, the gross amount is written off through the allowance for expected credit losses for settlement and trade receivables in general and administrative on the consolidated statements of profit or loss. Recoveries of trade receivables that were previously written off are recognized when received in general and administrative on the consolidated statements of profit or loss. See Note 7 for information on written- off and recovered settlement and trade receivables. KLARNA GROUP PLC 82 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Significant inputs Klarna utilizes a series of models to calculate allowance estimates, which depend on certain significant inputs. Definition of default An asset is considered to be in default when it is 90 days or more past due on any payments, has entered debt collection or is classified as fraudulent. Probability of Default (“PD”) Historical balances as well as the proportion of those balances that have defaulted over time are used as a basis to determine the PD. This approach provides values for 12-month and lifetime PDs applied over different vintages for different countries and for days since origination. In cases where the maturity of the loans is very short (i.e., less than 12 months), which is common for Klarna’s products, the 12-month PD and lifetime PD have equal values. Loss Given Default (“LGD”) LGD is the magnitude of the likely loss if there is a default. The LGD is dependent on geographical region, days past due, and, in some cases, recoveries from the sale of non-performing portfolios. The loss given default is calculated using the historical balances over different vintages as a basis. Furthermore, the LGD component is determined based on days past due. Exposure at Default (“EAD”) EAD represents the estimate of the exposure at a future default date, taking into account expected changes in the exposure as of each reporting date, including repayments of principal and interest, whether scheduled by contract or otherwise. Measurement of ECL Expected credit loss estimates are based on these key inputs: PD, LGD and the EAD, which are derived from internal statistics and other external data. PD and LGD estimates are an accumulation of segmentation, such as product and geography, within each asset class, which are used to calculate the ECL on a collective basis. For unsecured assets, there is no collateral factored into the ECL calculations. For quantitative information on the reported ECL amounts see Note 6 and Note 7. Write-off of financial assets Consumer receivables and settlement and trade receivables are written off when either the entire outstanding amount or a proportion thereof are considered uncollectible, which is generally when an outstanding balance is 180 days past due. For consumer receivables and settlement and trade receivables, Klarna monitors significant counterparty relationships for current information and events to assess if there is a risk the counterparty is experiencing financial difficulty or is in breach of contract. If a loan or receivable is determined to be uncollectible, the gross amount will be charged off through the allowance for expected credit losses. Charged-off balances may still be subject to enforcement activities to attempt to recover the amounts due. When enforcement activities are KLARNA GROUP PLC 83 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

exhausted or the loan or receivable is sold to an external party, the loan or receivable is formally written off in Klarna’s systems. For information on the written-off consumer receivables and settlement and trade receivables, including those subject to enforcement activities, see Note 6 and Note 7, respectively. Sale of uncollectible consumer receivables Klarna enters into agreements to sell certain uncollectible receivables to debt collection agencies to maximize recovery and manage credit risk. These uncollectible receivables are sold on a non-recourse basis, with the Group transferring substantially all risks and rewards of ownership to the debt collection agencies meeting the derecognition criteria on the date of sale. When a receivable is deemed to be uncollectible it is written down to the recoverable amount. Recoveries Recoveries for consumer receivables that were previously written off are recognized when received in provisions for credit losses on the consolidated statements of profit or loss. Recoveries of consumer receivables that were previously written off were not material in 2025 and 2024. 10. Commitments Klarna enters into certain arrangements that create commitments to purchase certain consumer loans originated by partner banks in the United States (“Loan funding commitments”). Upon purchase of these consumer loans, Klarna recognizes them on the consolidated balance sheet. Klarna may also provide consumers with committed credit limits or other committed financing arrangements. Amounts drawn under these commitments are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet. Amounts committed under these arrangements that are not yet recognized are disclosed in Note 19. 11. Structured entities A structured entity is an entity in which voting or similar rights are not the dominant factor in deciding who controls the entity, such as when any voting rights may relate to administrative tasks only, with the relevant activities of the entity being directed by means of contractual arrangements. Structured entities are generally created to achieve a narrow and well-defined objective with restrictions around their ongoing activities. Klarna consolidates such structured entities when we determine that we control the structured entity in accordance with IFRS 10. In the case of structured entities, this determination involves judgment, particularly as voting rights are often not the determining factor in decisions over the relevant activities. This judgment involves assessing the purpose and design of the entity, and whether we have power over the relevant activities and exposure, or rights, to variable returns, and the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the returns. In determining this, we also assess whether we are acting as a principal or as an agent on behalf of others. Warehouse financing facility and synthetic securitizations Klarna enters into transactions with securitization vehicles (“SPVs”), where it economically transfers a portion of credit risk for certain pools of consumer receivables (the “Referenced Pools”) with the primary objective to lower the regulatory capital risk weights of the underlying assets. KLARNA GROUP PLC 84 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

In certain transactions, Klarna enters into synthetic securitizations with unconsolidated SPVs. in which credit risk for each Referenced Pool is separated into three tranches: junior, mezzanine and senior. In these structures, Klarna retains the junior and senior tranches and transfers the credit risk associated with the mezzanine tranche to an unconsolidated SPV, which issues credit-linked notes (“CLNs") to investors. Klarna pays a fee to the SPVs for the transfer of credit risk, which is recognized as incurred in funding costs, see Note 17. This fee provides for a guarantee from the SPV to reimburse the Company for any credit losses incurred within transfers of the credit risk associated with the mezzanine tranche. In other transactions, Klarna enters into arrangements with consolidated SPVs, typically through warehouse financing facilities with an institutional lender, as the funder, and Klarna Bank AB, a subsidiary of Klarna Group plc, as the borrower. In these structures, the SPV issues CLNs to the funder and advances the proceeds to Klarna, which in turn pledges Referenced Pools as collateral. Credit risk for the Reference Pool is separated into two tranches: a junior tranche retained by Klarna and a senior tranche transferred to the funder through the consolidated SPV. The CLNs are recognized within Notes Payables and Other Borrowings and are classified and measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest and senior expenses related to the facility are recognized within funding costs, see Note 17. In both structures, Klarna retains the contractual rights to the cash flows and substantially all of the associated risks and rewards of ownership of the receivables within the Reference Pool. Accordingly, the receivables are not derecognized and continue to be recognized in the statement of financial position. Should the Company experience credit losses exceeding the retained tranche and fall within the transferred tranche, it would be entitled to recoveries consistent with that contractual reimbursement right. The Company’s estimated credit losses for the Reference Pools was below the contractual range of the transferred tranches for the periods presented. Accordingly, no claims have been made against the SPVs in respect of the reporting periods. Forward flow securitization Klarna enters into forward flow loan sale arrangements with unconsolidated SPVs whereby specified pools of consumer receivables (“Eligible Receivables”) are transferred to the SPVs. Klarna classifies the Eligible Receivables into either fair value through OCI (“FVOCI”), or fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) on the basis of both (a) Klarna’s business model for managing the assets, and (b) the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets. Eligible Receivables classified and measured at FVOCI are subsequently remeasured at fair value and changes therein are recognized in other comprehensive income, except for interest income, impairment, and foreign exchange, until the assets are sold. Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method, in the same manner as for financial assets measured at amortized cost, until derecognition requirements are met. Eligible Receivables classified and measured at FVTPL are subsequently remeasured at fair value and changes therein are recognized in the statements of profit or loss. Expected credit losses (“ECL”) on Eligible Receivables measured at FVOCI do not reduce the carrying amount of the financial assets, which remain at fair value. Instead, the ECLis recognized in other comprehensive income as an accumulated impairment amount, with a corresponding charge to profit or loss. KLARNA GROUP PLC 85 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Klarna derecognizes receivables upon transferring the contractual rights to the cash flows and substantially all associated risks and rewards. The transfers are deemed to occur on the sale date, at which point, the derecognition criteria are satisfied. Upon disposal of Eligible Receivables measured at FVOCI, the cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income, including the accumulated impairment amount are reclassified from other comprehensive income to the statements of profit or loss. Upon disposal of Eligible Receivables measured at FVTPL, gains and losses are recognized in the statements of profit or loss. Gains and losses from disposals of Fair Financing receivables are recognized within revenue as Gain on sale of consumer receivables, and losses from disposals of Pay Later receivables are recognized within Funding costs, reflecting the nature and underlying characteristics of the sold eligible receivables. See Note 4 and Note 17. Klarna may continue to service certain sold receivables on behalf of the SPVs in exchange for receiving a servicing income from providing professional services such as cash flow collection and credit risk management in the event of customer defaults. We recognize this servicing fee within Transaction and service revenue. The servicing fee is typically calculated daily by applying a fixed percentage to the outstanding loan principal balance. The servicing fee represents a fair market fee, and no servicing asset or liability is recognized in the financial statements. See Note 4. 12. Fair value measurement Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or, in its absence, the most advantageous market to which Klarna has access at that date. When available, Klarna measures fair value using the quoted price in an active market. If a quoted price in an active market is not available, the Group uses valuation methods that maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to determine fair value. The fair value of a financial instrument on initial recognition is generally best evidenced by its transaction price (i.e., the fair value of consideration paid or received). If Klarna determines that the transaction price differs from the fair value and the fair value is not evidenced by a quoted price in an active market for an identical asset or liability nor based on a valuation method where unobservable inputs are considered to be insignificant in relation to the difference, then the financial instrument is initially measured at fair value, adjusted to defer the difference between the fair value on initial recognition and the transaction price. Subsequently, that difference is recognized in profit or loss on an appropriate basis over the life of the instrument but no later than when the valuation is wholly supported by observable market data or the transaction is settled. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in these consolidated financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole. Level 1 Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy consists of assets and liabilities where the inputs used in the valuation are unadjusted quoted prices from active markets for identical assets or liabilities. KLARNA GROUP PLC 86 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Level 2 Level 2 consists of assets and liabilities where the significant inputs used for valuation are derived from directly or indirectly observable market data available over the entire period of the instrument’s life. Such inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical instruments in inactive markets and observable inputs other than quoted prices such as interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities and credit spreads. Level 3 Level 3 includes estimated values based on assumptions and assessments where one or more significant inputs are not based on observable market information. Klarna recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred. 13. Repurchase agreements Repurchase agreements are used to obtain liquidity and fluctuate over time based on many factors, including market conditions, consumer receivables and consumer deposit growth and balance sheet management activities. Treasury bills and other interest-bearing securities that are sold under agreements to repurchase at a specified future date are not derecognized from the balance sheet as Klarna retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership. Assets under repurchase agreements are transferred to the counterparty, and the counterparty has the right to sell or re-pledge the assets. Such securities are kept on the balance sheet and pledged as collateral when the securities have been transferred and cash consideration has been received. Payment received is recognized under notes payable and other borrowings. The difference between the sale and repurchase price is accrued over the life of the agreement using the effective interest method and recognized within funding costs in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. 14. Derivative instruments and hedge accounting Derivative instruments are recognized in the balance sheet on their trade date and are measured at fair value, both initially and in subsequent periods. Derivative instruments are presented in other assets or notes payable and other borrowings. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments are included in funding costs in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. The Group uses hedge accounting for fair value hedges to manage the interest rate risk of liabilities. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedging instruments are included in funding costs, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged liability that are attributable to the hedged risk. Any residual mismatch between the hedging instrument and the hedged item is recognized as ineffective. When hedging interest rate risk, any interest accrued or paid on both the hedging instrument and the hedged item is included in funding costs. If the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged item for which the effective interest method is used is amortized to the consolidated statements of profit or loss over the period for KLARNA GROUP PLC 87 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

which the item was hedged. If the hedged item is sold or repaid, the unamortized fair value adjustment is recognized immediately in funding costs. 15. Consumer deposits Consumer deposits are initially recorded at fair value and then at amortized cost and with application of the effective interest method. Where a consumer deposit is in a qualifying fair value hedge relationship, its carrying value is adjusted for changes in fair value attributable to the hedged risk. All consumer deposits are interest-bearing. Klarna offers certain consumer deposit arrangements under which funds are held on behalf of consumers by third-party financial institutions. Under these arrangements, consumer deposit balances that are not controlled by Klarna are not recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. 16. Payables to merchants Payables to merchants arise when Klarna facilitates payment transactions for merchants and holds the corresponding funds on their behalf. The settlement cycle is dependent on the counterparty, but is usually within a few working days of the transaction. As a result, Klarna records a liability towards the merchant, representing the money owed to them. Payables to merchants are recognized at amortized cost. On settlement, the Group derecognizes these amounts from the balance sheet. 17. Leasing The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The length of a lease term includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Group will exercise those options. The Group applies judgment in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain to exercise extension or termination options. For most leases, the Group has determined that the lease term does not include additional periods after the initial period. A right-of-use asset and a lease liability are recognized at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for initial direct costs, incentive payments, restoration costs and lease payments before the commencement date. The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the end of the lease term. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The lease liability is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising, for example, from a change in an index or rate, a reassessment of extension, termination or purchase options, or a change in the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee. If a remeasurement of the lease liability occurs, a corresponding adjustment to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is made. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are fixed payments, variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee and the exercise price under a purchase option, if KLARNA GROUP PLC 88 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

applicable. The Group excludes payments for related services and other components of a lease. The Group presents right-of-use assets in property and equipment and lease liabilities in other liabilities in the balance sheet. The Group has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets, primarily relating to IT equipment and short-term office rentals. Payments for such leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 18. Business combinations Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the consideration transferred and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree, over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. Acquisition-related costs, other than those incurred for the issuance of debt or equity instruments, are charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss as they are incurred. 19. Divestitures Non-current assets or disposal groups are classified as held for sale when their carrying amount is expected to be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. The classification is made when the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition, and the sale is highly probable within one year. Upon such classification, the assets or disposal group are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. The gain or loss on divestment is determined as the difference between the consideration received, net of transaction costs, and the carrying value of the net assets disposed of. The gain or loss is recognized within other income (expense) in the statements of profit or loss. Where goodwill has been allocated to the disposed operation, typically measured based on the relative values of the disposed operation, such goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal. An operation is classified as discontinued when it represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations that either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale. For foreign operations, cumulative foreign currency translation differences previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to the statements of profit or loss upon divestment. This reclassification is included as part of the gain or loss on disposal. 20. Goodwill and intangible assets Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of consideration paid over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually and more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. Impairment of goodwill is not reversed. The Group monitors goodwill for impairment considerations at the operating segment level. In the event of a disposal that qualifies as a business, or where there is a significant reorganization of the business, goodwill is allocated based upon relative fair values. KLARNA GROUP PLC 89 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Trademarks, tradenames, licenses and other customer-related intangible assets Identifiable intangible assets following business combinations include trademarks, tradenames, licenses, developed technology and customer relationships. Acquired intangible assets are recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition and amortized over their estimated useful lives, generally 3-20 years. The Group reviews the carrying amounts of intangible assets for impairment at the asset group level whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset group may not be recoverable. Capitalized development costs Costs associated with IT systems, software and licenses, whether developed internally or acquired, are recognized as intangible assets when the following criteria are met: • It is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that the asset will be available for use or sale; • Adequate resources are available to complete the development; • There is an intention to complete and use the intangible asset for the provision of services; • Use of the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; and • Expenditures attributable to the intangible asset can be measured reliably. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable capitalized development costs and licenses (generally, 3-5 years) and reported within depreciation, amortization and impairments and in technology and product development in the consolidated statements of profit or loss depending on the nature of the assets. Costs related to development activities that do not satisfy the above criteria, including for maintenance, are expensed as incurred. Impairment Goodwill is tested for impairment annually. This is tested by estimating the recoverable amount, which is the higher of the fair value less costs of disposal and the value in use. If the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount, the asset is written down. See Note 11 for further information on the measurement of goodwill and significant assumptions used in the annual impairment test. Intangible assets with finite useful lives undergo impairment testing whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. 21. Property and equipment Property and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets, generally, by applying the following useful lives to each class of property and equipment: KLARNA GROUP PLC 90 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Equipment, tools and fixtures and fittings ......................... 5 years Computers and other machinery ........................................ 3 years Leasehold improvements...................................................... The shorter of lease term and useful life If there is an indication that the recoverable value is less than the carrying amount, an impairment review is completed and any impairment loss is recognized within depreciation, amortization and impairments in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. The cost and accumulated depreciation for property and equipment that is sold, retired or otherwise disposed of are derecognized and the resulting gains or losses are recorded in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. 22. Treasury shares Shares in the Company that are held by wholly owned subsidiaries or other Group entities are classified as treasury shares. Amounts paid to repurchase the Company’s own shares, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of related income tax effects), are recognized as a deduction from equity. The repurchased shares are presented as treasury shares and remain deducted from equity until they are either cancelled or reissued. These shares are deducted from the issued and weighted average number of shares in calculating earnings per share. Dividends received on treasury shares are eliminated on consolidation, and no gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss or other comprehensive income on the purchase, sale, reissue, or cancellation of such shares. 23. Revenue Recognition Transaction and service revenue Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Group expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The product offerings from which revenues are recognized do not differ in any significant way between geographical markets. Transaction revenue Transaction revenue includes merchant revenue and advertising revenue. Merchant revenue refers to fees paid by our merchants, generated when consumers transact on our network. It includes merchant fees, interchange revenue and fees for settling disputes. Merchant revenue is derived from the volume of transactions we process multiplied by the fees we charge, which vary among our geographies. Our pricing is a combination of value-based and fixed pricing, charged either ad valorem (proportional to the estimated value of goods and services purchased on our network) or fixed fees on each transaction, or a mix of both. Where consumers return merchandise or goods and merchants process a refund, merchant fees charged for the original transaction are not returned to the merchant. Our contracts with merchants consist of a master agreement including terms, conditions and pricing. We are not obligated to perform under the contract until a transaction occurs and thus each transaction represents a separate performance obligation to the merchant as our customer. Our service offering comprises a single performance obligation to merchants to facilitate transactions with consumers. The transaction price is recognized at the point in time when the merchant successfully confirms the transaction, which is when the terms of the contract are fulfilled. We KLARNA GROUP PLC 91 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

provide a reduction of merchant fees to certain merchants based on performance measures, including volume of processed transactions. The nature of our contracts may give rise to variable consideration, which may be constrained. We estimate the expected transaction volumes at the beginning of the period and include the estimated rebates in the transaction price as a reduction of merchant revenue. We also enter into contracts with certain merchants to expand our user base and market presence and for brand promotion through co-marketing activities, as detailed in section Promotional and marketing arrangements below. Advertising revenue is earned from merchants who place advertisements on our network, including sponsored search, affiliate programs and brand ads. We enter into contracts for advertising either directly with merchants or through other third parties. The transaction price is determined based on the advertising model, with fees that may be fixed or variable, typically based on the number of impressions delivered or actions taken by users, such as clicks or purchases. Revenue from impression-based ads is recognized in the period when an ad is displayed to users. For action- based ads, revenue is generally recognized at a point in time, when a specified action, such as a click or purchase, occurs. Our contracts for advertising services are separate from other merchant contracts and include a single performance obligation. For advertising revenue generated through other third parties, we recognize revenue on a gross basis if we are the principal and on a net basis if we are the agent. This assessment is based on whether we control the service before it is delivered to the customer. Consumer service revenue Consumer service revenue refers to revenue we earn from consumer fees, primarily consisting of certain administrative fees, including reminder fees and fees for issuing one-time cards. Consumers may be charged a fee, being a fixed amount that constitutes the transaction price and recognized at the point in time that the consumer is charged. This fee income is earned in relation to the Company’s ordinary activities. Consumer service revenue also includes subscription revenue. Subscription revenue represents monthly subscription fees related to a single performance obligation for a bundle of services and are recognized over the subscription period as those services are provided. Distribution partner referral arrangements We enter into contracts with third-party partners to distribute our payment solutions to our merchants. For these contracts, we evaluate who our customer is and if we are acting as the principal or agent in the specific arrangement. Generally, our customer is considered to be the merchant and we are considered to be the principal in these arrangements, while third-party partners are determined to be an agent in the transaction. We recognize incremental costs of obtaining a contract in accordance with IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contract with Customers” for the commission paid to these third-party partners. These expenses are classified within sales and marketing expenses in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. During 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized $109 million and $81 million, respectively, related to these commissions within sales and marketing expenses. Promotional and marketing arrangements We enter into contracts with certain merchants and other partners to expand our user base and market presence, and for brand promotion through co-marketing activities, in which Klarna provides KLARNA GROUP PLC 92 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

cash, share warrants, or both as consideration. We evaluate if the consideration payable is in exchange for a distinct good or service. Where the payment is for a distinct good or service, it is recognized as sales and marketing expenses. If a payment is not for a distinct good or service, it is recognized as a reduction of the transaction price. We recognize the expense of such services as incurred. When the consideration represents a payment against which economic benefits are expected to be realized over a future period, we recognize a commercial agreement asset. These assets are amortized over the period of the contract for when the services are expected to be provided, which is typically between 3-5 years. We also offer promotions to consumers, including cashback, with the purpose of acquiring new consumers, promoting the Klarna brand, the use of the Klarna app and payment options. These promotions typically represent a reduction on the total amount collected from consumers. Where we assess there is no explicit or implicit expectation for promotions to be provided, we recognize within sales and marketing expenses. Where we assess there is an expectation, the cost of the promotion is recognized as a reduction in the revenue earned from the transaction, with any excess of the cost of the promotion above the revenue recognized within sales and marketing expenses. Interest income Interest income includes interest earned when consumers choose to spread the cost of transactions over time through one of our interest-bearing financing products or to delay the cost of transactions with our payment flexibility features, such as “snooze.” We also recognize interest income related to incremental fees earned from certain merchants for providing interest-free promotional loans to their consumers. Interest income on financial assets measured at amortized cost, as well as “snooze” fees charged, is recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest method. Interest income also includes interest from debt securities. See Note 8. From time to time, we may enter into contracts with merchants under which we pay a fee for their role as intermediary in arranging a consumer financing facility. We recognize such fees as a reduction of interest income. During 2025 and 2024, the Group recognized $12 million and $10 million as a reduction of interest income, respectively. 24. Operating expenses Processing and servicing costs Processing and servicing costs primarily consist of the following and include cost of fulfilling a contract: authentication costs to verify user identities, scoring costs related to purchasing credit and fraud data from various bureaus, distribution costs related to direct communication with consumers, commissions paid to third parties for debt collection and payment fees to credit card companies and financial institutions. Processing and servicing costs are expensed as incurred. Provision for credit losses Impairment losses from consumer receivables are reported as Provision for credit losses. Provision for credit losses for the period consist of realized credit losses, provisions for credit losses for granted credit, less reversal of provisions for credit losses made previously. Realized KLARNA GROUP PLC 93 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

credit losses are losses whose amount is, for example, determined via bankruptcy, a composition arrangement, a statement by an enforcement authority or the sale of receivables. Funding costs Funding costs include interest that we pay on our consumer deposits, calculated using the effective interest method, and securitization costs, including fair value adjustments on Pay Later receivables held at fair value through profit and loss related to forward flow agreements, and premiums paid in connection with our synthetic securitization transactions. Technology and product development Technology and product development expenses primarily consist of personnel-related costs for technology functions as well as other expenses, including hosting, software licenses, external service providers, hardware costs and amortization of internally developed and acquired technology assets. Sales and marketing Sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of personnel costs, general marketing and promotional activities costs, referral commissions, costs related to sponsorships and partnerships, and costs related to consumer promotional programs. Customer service and operations Customer service and operations expenses primarily consist of personnel costs for customer support functions and outsourced assistance to help with purchases, account management, returns and merchant disputes. General and administrative General and administrative expenses consist of personnel costs for directors and executives, legal and human resources, and finance functions, lease expenses related to short-term leases, low- value assets, and variable lease expenses, professional services costs and merchant and other losses. 25. Income taxes Income taxes consist of current tax and deferred tax. Income taxes are reported directly in the consolidated statement of profit or loss except when the underlying transaction is reported directly against equity or other comprehensive income, in which case the accompanying tax also is reported in equity or other comprehensive income. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date in the countries where the Group operates and generates taxable income. Deferred tax is reported according to the balance sheet method for all taxable temporary differences between an asset’s or a liability’s tax base and its carrying amount in the balance sheet. Deferred tax assets are reported for deductible temporary differences to the extent it is probable that the taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. KLARNA GROUP PLC 94 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

The Group assesses on an ongoing basis as well as at the end of the year the possibility of recognizing deferred tax assets related to tax losses carried-forward. Deferred tax assets attributable to tax losses carried forward are reported only if it is probable that they will be used towards taxable profits in the foreseeable future. Significant management judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized, based upon the probability of taxable profits being available in the future and the quantum of taxable profits that are forecasted to arise. These judgments include management’s expectations of the growth of profit before tax in different jurisdictions, forecasted revenues and expenses and the timing of the reversal of taxable temporary differences. Uncertain tax positions are measured on an ongoing basis, and the method is determined by taking all known facts and circumstances into account. 26. Share-based payments Klarna offers equity-based programs to employees and certain third-party contributors, including merchants, partners and service providers. Employee Restricted Share Unit Program and Individual Contributor Share Warrants and Share Options The Group grants share-based awards in the form of restricted share units (“RSUs”), share warrants and options, to certain individual contributors, including employees, executive officers and directors. Restricted share units granted to employees generally vest on a graded vesting schedule over a four years period. The share warrants and options are subject to graded vesting over a term of typically four to five years. These arrangements are equity-settled and are accounted for as equity- settled share-based payments. For share-based awards granted to certain individual contributors, including employees as well as executive officers and directors, the services rendered are measured with reference to the grant- date fair value of the equity instruments using a Black-Scholes model. The cost of the share-based payments granted to employees is recognized over the vesting period, which represents the period the service conditions are fulfilled. The Group also grants ordinary shares through direct share issuances to employees, executive officers and directors. The shares are accounted for as equity-settled share-based payments. Typically there are no vesting conditions or restrictions placed on the awards and, accordingly, the related share-based compensation expense, based on the grant-date fair value of the awards, is recognized immediately. The share-based payment expenses related to awards granted to individual contributors, including employees, executive officers and directors are recognized under technology and product development, sales and marketing, customer service and operations or general and administrative expenses depending on the function of the related employee or individual contributor in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. The employment vesting condition is a non-market based condition and a forfeiture estimate is factored into the assumption of how many equity instruments are expected to vest. Any related social security charges relating to share-based payments are recognized as an expense during the corresponding period based on the fair value that serves as the basis for a payment of social security charges. The expense is recognized under the function of the related employee or individual contributor in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. In many KLARNA GROUP PLC 95 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

jurisdictions, tax authorities levy taxes on share-based compensation transactions with employees that give rise to a personal tax liability for the employee. In some cases, Klarna is required to withhold the tax due and to settle it with the tax authority on behalf of the employees. To fulfill this obligation, the terms of Klarna’s restricted share unit arrangements permit the Group to withhold the number of shares that are equal to the monetary value of the employee’s tax. Partner Share Warrants Klarna has granted share warrants to certain partners, including merchants and other service providers, in return for services. Share-based payments to partners are generally measured at the fair value of the goods or services received and measured at the time when such goods and services are received. If the fair value of goods and services cannot be reliably measured, the fair value of the equity instruments is used. We recognize commercial agreement assets where the consideration paid represents a future economic benefit, and these assets are amortized over the relevant performance period within the commercial agreement and recognized within sales and marketing expenses where the payment is in exchange for a distinct service or as a reduction to transaction prices if in exchange for no distinct service. Further information relating to share-based payment transactions is presented in Note 22. 27. Provisions The Group recognizes provisions for present obligations arising from past events when payment of the obligations is probable and can be reliably estimated. Refer to Note 15 for information regarding the Group’s provisions. Klarna operates in a regulatory and legal environment that involves an element of litigation risk inherent to its operations, and from time to time Klarna may be party to litigation, arbitration and regulatory investigations and proceedings arising during the ordinary course of business. When Klarna can reliably measure the outflow of economic benefits in relation to a specific case and considers such outflow to be probable, a provision is recorded. Given the subjectivity and uncertainty of determining the probability and amount, a number of factors are assessed, including legal advice, the stage of the matter and historical evidence from similar incidents. Judgment is required in concluding such assessments. 28. Employee Benefits Employee benefits include all forms of consideration provided by the Group in exchange for services rendered by employees, including post-employment pension plans. The Group’s pension plans are defined contribution plans, which means that contributions are made to an independent legal entity according to a fixed pension plan. These contributions are recognized as personnel costs in the period they apply to. After the contributions are made, the Group has no legal or other obligations. Employee benefits expenses are composed of: 2025 2024 Salaries and other remuneration ................................................................................. $ (417) $ (393) Statutory and contractual social security expenses ..............................................

29. Investments in subsidiaries Investments in subsidiaries are recognised initially at cost. Subsequently, they are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there is any indication that an investment in a subsidiary may be impaired. Where the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit or Loss. Note 3 Risk management and management of capital Klarna’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and to comply with regulatory capital requirements. Regulatory requirements Within the Group, Klarna Holding AB and its subsidiary, Klarna Bank AB, are subject to the regulatory capital requirements imposed by the SFSA. The regulatory capital framework requires Klarna to maintain a minimum level of capital to cover its operational, credit and market risks. Klarna's regulatory capital is composed of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital, which include common equity, retained earnings, and subordinated debt. Capital adequacy Klarna monitors its capital and liquidity adequacy ratios through the Internal Capital and Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process (“ICLAAP”) in accordance with the regulatory definition of these measures. As of December 31, 2025, Klarna was in compliance with these requirements. Capital structure Klarna’s capital structure is regularly reviewed by the board of directors. The review involves assessing the cost of capital and ensuring compliance with regulatory capital requirements. The key components of Klarna’s capital structure include: Equity: Common shares, additional paid-in capital, and retained earnings. Debt: Debt obligations, including subordinated debt. Risk descriptions The Group categorizes the key risks it is exposed to in the sections below. These risk categories form the basis of how Klarna identifies, assesses, manages and monitors risk. Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss due to a counterparty failing to meet its contractual obligations or concentrations in exposure. Cash and cash equivalents, consumer receivables, other receivables, and debt securities are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk. To manage the Group’s credit risk, cash and securities held are placed with financial institutions that management believes are of high credit quality, and the quality of the Group’s lending is closely KLARNA GROUP PLC 97 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

monitored through our underwriting process. Klarna makes real-time underwriting decisions for each transaction, leveraging its records, including the customer’s history with Klarna and purchase behavior from active Klarna consumers, merchant data, credit bureau reports and open banking data to understand the financial position of the consumer at that point in time. For further details on credit risk, refer to Note 2. Market Risk Market risk is the risk of movements in market prices impacting Klarna’s earnings or capital position. Risk Measurement and Exposure Currency exposure The currency exposure is a result of transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency. The table below shows the net average currency exposure and the effects of a 10% change in foreign exchange rates on the exposure of the group as of the end of the period.

(2) (1) (1) (2) (6) Interest rate exposure As a bank, Klarna is required to monitor exposures toward interest rate risks using the Economic Value of Equity (EVE) approach according to the relevant EU regulations, EBA guidelines and SFSA methodologies. The EVE approach measures interest rate driven changes to the net present value of future cash flows generated by balance sheet items. The change to EVE is measured using various interest rate scenarios, including parallel shifts. The table below shows the change in the EVE after applying a parallel shift to the yield curve.

Note 4 Operating segments Klarna determines operating segments based on how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) manages the business, makes operating decisions around the allocation of resources and evaluates Klarna’s operating performance. Klarna’s CODM role is fulfilled by the executive officers as a group, who collaboratively assess financial performance and make resource allocation decisions on a consolidated basis. Klarna operates as one operating segment and has one reportable segment. KLARNA GROUP PLC 99 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Geographic Information Transaction revenue, consumer service revenue and interest income are presented by major geographic regions based upon the billing address of the consumer.

Advertising revenue is earned from merchants who place advertisements on our network, including sponsored search, affiliate programs and brand ads. During 2025 and 2024, advertising revenue amounted to $190 million and $180 million. Gain on sale of consumer receivables During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company entered into sales agreements of Fair Financing receivables comprising both an initial sale of existing portfolio and additional forward flow agreements. The total Fair Financing receivables sold during the year was $1.6 billion. These sales of receivables resulted in a gain on sale $73 million, of which $25 million was reclassified from other comprehensive income during 2025. There was no comparable revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024. Consumer service revenue Consumer service revenue refers to revenue we earn from consumer fees, primarily consisting of certain administrative fees, including reminder fees of $261 million and $254 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively, and other administrative fees, such as fees for issuing one-time cards. KLARNA GROUP PLC 100 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Other adjustments within consumer receivables during 2025 primarily relate to the impact of movements in foreign exchange rates on consumer receivables during the year. Note 7 Settlement and trade receivables Settlement and trade receivables primarily include receivables from payment solution providers (“PSP receivables”), which arise from timing differences in the settlement process between the cash settlement of a transaction and the derecognition of the associated receivable. Settlement and trade receivables are initially measured at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost less an allowance for ECL. Settlement and trade receivables are composed of: December 31, 2025 Gross Carrying Amount Allowance for ECL Net Carrying Amount Payment service providers receivables 454 (1) 453 Merchant receivables 92 (25) 67 Debt collection receivables 20 — 20 Other receivables 40 — 40 Total 606 (26) 580 December 31, 2024 Gross Carrying Amount Allowance for ECL Net Carrying Amount Payment service providers receivables ...................................... $ 368 $ — 0 0 $ 368 Merchant receivables ..................................................................... 128 (17) 0 0 111 Debt collection receivables ........................................................... 8 — 0 8 Other receivables ............................................................................. 6 — 0 6 Total ................................................................................................... $ 510 $ (17) $ 493 The Group applies the simplified approach to calculating the allowance for expected credit losses. The Group’s provisions for expected credit losses related to merchant receivables are included within general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. The balances throughout fiscal years 2025 and 2024 for the allowance for expected credit losses related to PSP receivables, debt collection receivables and other receivables were immaterial due to the short-term nature of the receivables and low credit risk associated with transacting with large PSPs, debt collection agencies and other counterparties.

The allowance for expected credit losses is immaterial due to the credit quality of the issuers and low risk of default. Mandatory deposits at central banks are held with local central banks for the purpose of satisfying regulatory requirements. These deposits are not available for immediate use to support the Company’s day-to-day operations. KLARNA GROUP PLC 106 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Note 9 Leases Klarna’s leases are primarily composed of office facilities and IT office equipment with various expiration dates through December 2031. We have the option to renew or extend our leases, and certain agreements also provide the option to terminate with prior written notice. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we have not included these provisions in determining the lease term, as it is not reasonably certain that these options will be exercised. During 2025 and 2024, Klarna recognized impairment loss of $16 million and $6 million , respectively, related to the early termination of certain lease agreements for office space. Refer to Note 12 for additional information regarding right-of-use assets.

On October 1, 2024, the Group completed the divestment of Klarna Checkout (“KCO”), its online checkout solution, to a consortium of investors. This transaction allows Klarna to focus on its flexible payment methods and partner more closely with payment service providers. KCO was a shopping solution providing consumers and merchants with a personalized shopping experience. KCO provided several different payment options as well as Klarna’s proprietary products and other offerings from, or supported by, third-party payment option providers. KCO had approximately 24 thousand merchants. The Group received cash proceeds of $195 million and recognized a net gain of $171 million within other income in our statements of profit and loss as a result of the sale in 2024. In addition, further cash proceeds up to a maximum of $28 million may be receivable contingent upon the disposed operation achieving certain performance criteria in 2026 and 2027. At the time of the sale and through December 31, 2025, Klarna had not recognized any contingent consideration.

In connection with the disposal, the former eliminated intercompany receivables became external, impacting the consolidated financial net assets by $49 million. Klarna determined that the operation of KCO did not meet the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations under IFRS as it was not a major business line or a geographic area of operations and KCO’s operations or cash flows have historically not been clearly distinguishable.

Impairment testing of Goodwill and Intangible assets The Group conducted its annual goodwill impairment test as of October 1, 2025. No impairment losses were identified, as the recoverable amount, measured as value in use, exceeded the carrying amount. The impairment test is performed at the operating segment level, which is the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored and assessed for internal management purposes, by comparing the carrying amount of the net assets, including goodwill, with the recoverable amount. In 2025 and 2024, the Group assessed impairment by calculating value in use, based on estimated future financials from the operating segment. The Group uses a two-year forecast based on its business plan which is extrapolated out to a five-year timeframe. Cash flows beyond the five-year period are determined using an estimated terminal growth rate of 3.5% . Key assumptions and inputs include discount rate, growth rate and profitability. The discount rate used in 2025 and 2024 was 11.2% and 12.5%, respectively. On October 1, 2024, the Group completed the divestment of KCO to a consortium of investors, to which goodwill of $20 million was allocated using a relative value approach. See Note 10.

Senior unsecured bonds Klarna has established a Swedish Medium Term Note Program (the “SMTN”) and Euro Medium Term Note Program (the “EMTN”). Under both programmes Klarna Bank AB and Klarna Holding AB issue notes that qualify as Senior Unsecured Bonds and Subordinated liabilities. Under the terms of the SMTN, Klarna may issue up to an amount that is not to exceed SEK10 billion which approximates $1.1 billion as of December 31, 2025. Under the terms of the EMTN, Klarna may issue notes up to an amount that is not to exceed EUR3 billion which approximates $3.1 billion as of December 31, 2025. The medium term notes are initially recorded at fair value based upon proceeds received, net of issuance costs and subsequently accounted for at amortized cost with interest expense recognized within funding costs in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. On March 21, 2024, the Group issued SEK500 million (equated to $49.5 million at the date of issuance) of senior unsecured bonds due in 2026 under the SMTN. The notes have a floating coupon rate corresponding to three-month STIBOR plus 2.5% per annum. On June 24, 2024, the Group issued SEK750 million (equated to $74.2 million at the date of issuance) of senior unsecured bonds due in 2026 under the SMTN. The notes have a floating coupon rate corresponding to three-month STIBOR plus 1.8% per annum. On June 24, 2024, the Group issued SEK250 million (equated to $24.7 million at the date of issuance) of senior unsecured bonds due in 2027 under the SMTN. The notes have a floating coupon rate corresponding to three-month STIBOR plus 2.1% per annum. On June 18, 2025, the Group issued SEK600 million (equated to $65 million at the date of issuance) of senior unsecured bonds due in 2027 under the SMTN. The notes have a floating coupon rate corresponding to three-month STIBOR plus 1.6% per annum. On June 18, 2025, the Group issued SEK900 million (equated to $98 million at the date of issuance) of senior unsecured bonds due in 2028 under the EMTN. The notes have a floating coupon rate corresponding to three-month STIBOR plus 1.8% per annum. During 2025 and 2024, a total of nil and $34 million, respectively, of notes issued under the SMTN matured. In 2025, no notes were repurchased and in 2024, an aggregate of $8 million of notes issued under the SMTN were repurchased. The notes are senior unsecured obligations of Klarna and rank equally in right of payment to all of Klarna’s existing and future senior debt and senior in right of payment to all of Klarna’s existing and future subordinated debt. In 2025 and 2024, the Group recognized $10 million and $5 million, respectively, of interest expense related to senior unsecured bonds, which are included within funding costs in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. Subordinated liabilities Subordinated liabilities consist of Tier 2 securities (“Tier 2 Notes” or “Subordinated liabilities”) which are floating rate subordinated securities with a fixed redemption date. The securities rank senior in right of payment to any liabilities or capital instruments of the issuer which constitute CET1 capital or Additional Tier 1 capital, as defined in Note 21, and junior in right of payment to all of KLARNA GROUP PLC 114 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

depositors, any unsubordinated creditors or any subordinated creditors of the issuer whose rights are expressed to rank in priority to the noteholders by statute or regulation. The securities rank pari passu with any liabilities or capital instruments of the issuer which constitute Tier 2 capital and any other liabilities or capital instruments that rank, or are expressed to rank, equally with the securities. As of December 31, 2025, all outstanding Tier 2 securities were issued by Klarna Holding AB. The Tier 2 Notes bear a variable rate of interest consisting of a reference rate plus a margin ranging from 7.0% to 7.5% until the redemption date. Interest on the securities is due and payable on a quarterly basis. The securities are redeemable by the Company at any time during the initial call period, which is the fifth anniversary from the initiation issue date, or at any interest payment date falling after the initial call period, subject to permission from the SFSA. The Company is required to redeem all outstanding Tier 2 Notes on the final redemption date, as specified in the terms of the applicable agreement. The Tier 2 Notes were determined to be liability classified under IAS 32 “Financial Instruments: Presentation” and are initially recorded at fair value based upon proceeds received, net of issuance costs and subsequently accounted for at amortized cost with interest expense recognized within funding costs in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. On April 19, 2024, Klarna Holding AB issued $100 million of subordinated notes due 2034 under the EMTN. The notes have a floating coupon rate corresponding to SOFR plus 7% per annum. The notes were issued in a private placement and have a first call date of August 16, 2028.

Provisions The Group recognizes provisions for present obligations arising from past events when payment of the obligations is probable and can be reliably estimated. Provisions primarily consist of consumer refund commitment, and pending legal and tax litigation. Changes in provisions were immaterial in 2025 and 2024. Klarna offers a Buyer Protection Policy, pursuant to which the Group reimburses consumers in certain circumstances, including where a merchant does not adequately resolve a purchase return for purchases made using a Klarna payment method. The Group recognizes a provision for the expected unrecovered portion of such reimbursements. The total gross transaction value covered by the Buyer Protection Policy as at December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $889 million and $778 million, respectively, which, while not representing a liability, contingent liability, or commitment, represents the underlying exposure used in measuring the related provision. From time to time, we are involved in various legal, arbitration, dispute and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business where the probability of an outflow is considered remote. If, contrary to the Group’s expectations, a future obligation were to arise from such matters pending as of December 31, 2025, the aggregate outcomes could total up to potential of $130 million. Card scheme liabilities Card scheme liabilities relate to card processing fees owed by the Company to card payment networks or third parties for facilitating and processing transactions. Note 16 Structured entities Klarna enters into arrangements with structured entities, and consolidates such entities where it has power over key activities and exposure and ability to influence its own returns, and does not consolidate such entities where those conditions are not me. Consolidated structured entities Warehouse financing facility During 2025 Klarna entered into a warehouse financing facility with an institutional lender, as the funder, and Klarna Bank AB, a subsidiary of Klarna Group plc, as the borrower, under which the consolidated SPV issues credit-linked notes (“CLNs”) to the funder and advances the proceeds to Klarna, which in turn pledges specified pools of consumer receivables as collateral, see Note 19. Credit risk for the Reference Pool is separated into two tranches: a junior tranche retained by Klarna and a senior tranche transferred to the funder through the consolidated SPV. The CLNs are recognized within Notes Payables and Other Borrowings, see Note 14, and are classified and measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest and senior expenses related to the facility are recognized within funding costs. Employee benefit trust Klarna has established an employee benefit trust to facilitate and meet obligations to employees in relation to share-based remuneration arrangements. See Note 22 . KLARNA GROUP PLC 116 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Unconsolidated structured entities Synthetic securitizations Klarna enters into synthetic securitization transactions with unconsolidated SPVs, where it economically transfers a portion of credit risk for certain pools of consumer receivables (the “referenced pools”) with the primary objective to lower the regulatory capital risk weights of the underlying assets. Credit risk for each referenced pool is separated into three tranches: junior, mezzanine and senior. The Company retains the risk for the junior and senior tranches and transfers risk for the mezzanine tranche to the SPV. The SPV then issues credit-linked notes to investors. While Klarna pays a fee, recognized as incurred in funding costs, see Note 18, Klarna is not exposed to variability in the returns of the SPVs involved in the synthetic securitization transactions. The premiums paid by Klarna are structured to mitigate, rather than introduce, variability of returns within the reference portfolio. Furthermore, Klarna is not considered the sponsor of the SPVs, as their management and operations are exclusively conducted by independent external service providers. The Company incurred fees of $30.7 million and $32.3 million for 2025 and 2024, respectively, in connection with such transactions. The total consumer receivable pool was $1.3 billion and $2.1 billion as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Forward flow securitizations Klarna entered into forward flow loan sale arrangements with unconsolidated SPVs whereby specified pools of eligible consumer receivables were transferred to the SPVs. Klarna derecognized these receivables upon transferring the contractual rights to the cash flows and substantially all associated risks and rewards. These agreements are fixed-term in nature, with commitment periods ranging from two to three years, during which Klarna sells eligible Fair Financing and Pay Later receivables shortly after origination. The purchasing counterparty is committed to purchase all eligible loans offered up to its commitment amount, which varies between approximately $750 million and $1 billion measured by the outstanding balance of purchased receivables. The following table shows the carrying amount of Klarna’s recorded interest in its consolidated balance sheet as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and represented the maximum exposure to risk associated with its interest in the unconsolidated structured entities. The maximum exposure reflects the total potential loss the Group could incur from its involvement, regardless of the likelihood of that loss being incurred.

____________ 1 The pledged assets are included within bonds and other interest-bearing securities, see Note 19. 2 The Company’s payable to SPV are included within other liabilities, see Note 15. The total consumer receivables originated at fair value through profit and loss or at fair value through OCI during 2025 totaled $18 billion, of which $786 million was unsold as of December 31, 2025. During 2024, $3.3 billion was originated, of which $2 million was unsold as of December 31, 2024. See Note 20. Following the transfer of consumer receivables Klarna typically continues to service the sold receivables on behalf of the SPVs for a servicing fee. The Company earned servicing income of $12.2 million and $1.6 million for 2025 and 2024, respectively, recognized within Transaction and service revenue related to derecognized receivables. The servicing fees were commensurate with market rates and did not expose Klarna to credit losses beyond its contractual entitlements. The servicing arrangement did not constitute a form of retained interest that precluded derecognition. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, an aggregated balance of $2.94 billion and $867 million, respectively, in sold receivables was recognized by the unconsolidated SPVs. In addition, we may experience a loss due to future repurchase obligations resulting from breaches in representations and warranties in our securitization and third-party sale agreements. This amount was not material as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Note 17 Funding costs The Group’s funding costs for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows: 2025 2024 Consumer deposits $ (330) $ (343) Fair value adjustment on loans sold and held for sale (163) (30) Other cost of securitisations (32) (34) Interest-bearing securities (30) (26) Liabilities to credit institutions (30) (17) Subordinated liabilities (19) (17) Other funding costs (63) (36) Total $ (667) $ (503) Fair value adjustment on loans sold and held for sale relates to Pay Later receivables originated within the business model originate to sell and measured at FVTPL. See Note 16 . Note 18 Derivatives The Group enters into derivative financial instruments to manage its interest rate and foreign exchange risk. Derivative instruments are initially and subsequently measured at fair value with changes to fair value recognized immediately within funding costs in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. When the fair value of derivative instruments is positive, they are carried as assets and carried as liabilities when their fair value is negative.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, Klarna had entered into derivatives with the gross nominal amount of $8.3 billion and $7.4 billion, respectively.

Derivatives designated in a hedge relationship Fair value hedges The Group holds short- and medium-term consumer deposits which are subject to changes in fair value due to fluctuations in the underlying interest rate benchmark, which is typically the most significant component of the overall fair value change. The Group uses interest rate swaps as the hedging instrument to reduce the impact of fair value changes in the consumer deposits (hedged item) due to changes in the underlying interest rate benchmark. KLARNA GROUP PLC 119 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

For hedges of interest rate risk, ineffectiveness can arise due to mismatches of critical terms and/or the use of different curves to discount the hedged item and instrument, as in, for example, a mismatch between the reset frequency of the swap and the benchmark frequency.

Note 19 Pledged assets, guarantees and commitments Pledged assets The Group pledges certain assets to be used as collateral to secure specific financial obligations. The pledged assets include certain consumer receivables, other receivables, treasury bills and other interest-bearing securities. These assets are subject to claims by creditors in the event of default on the associated liabilities. The following table provides details of the Group’s pledged assets.

The Group’s commitments for loan funding increased in 2025 compared with 2024, reflecting continued growth in the Norwegian market. In Norway, regulation requires the Group to set and communicate an individual credit limit to each customer. The undrawn portion of the approved limit constitutes a loan commitment. The Company’s commitments were primarily classified as Stage 1 with immaterial impacts to provisions as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Note 20 Fair value measurement of financial assets and liabilities The following table shows the Group’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and identifies which of the three valuation levels the assets and liabilities have been classified into as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. For description of the fair value levels, see Note 2. No transfers between levels have been made during 2025 or 2024.

Consumer receivables at fair value through profit and loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI) Consumer receivables at fair value through profit and loss refers to specified pools of eligible consumer receivables which are managed within a business model whose objective is to originate and sell, as part of the Company’s forward flow transaction. See Note 16 . Consumer receivables at fair value through other comprehensive income refers to specified pools of eligible consumer receivables which are managed within a hold-to-collect-and-sell business model, under which cash flows are realized through both the collection of contractual principal and interest and the sale of receivables, as part of the Company’s forward flow transaction. See Note 16 . KLARNA GROUP PLC 122 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow methodology that projects contractual cash flows over the remaining life of the instruments. Cash flows are adjusted for unobservable inputs, including a weighted-average lifetime probability of default, conditional loss given default, and prepayment rates reflecting an average modeled probability, based on portfolio-level assumptions applied at the reporting date are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.. This consistent with the overall policy outlined in Note 2. The cash flows are discounted using observable zero- coupon rates, plus a portfolio-specific credit spread applied as a margin over the risk-free curve. Derivatives Derivatives fair value is estimated using third-party pricing models, which contain input parameters based on readily observable market data sources when available. Equity investments Equity investments comprise investments in listed and unlisted companies. Equity investments fair value is based on quoted market prices where available or valuation techniques using unobservable data. Level 3 equity investments represented investment in unlisted shares for which limited information was available. For these unlisted shares, the fair value is generally estimated using business enterprise values based on market transactions or by applying market multiples to the projected financial performance of the investments. The significant inputs to estimate fair value include the identification of peer groups, discount rates and revenue projections. Movements in Level 3 The following tables show a reconciliation of the opening and closing balances of Level 3 financial assets and liabilities which are recorded at fair value.

The excess of the consideration received from issuance of shares over their nominal value is recognized as additional paid in capital. On May 23, 2024, Klarna Holding AB (publ) completed a reorganization, which resulted in Klarna Group plc becoming the new ultimate parent company of the Group. Through a series of share for share exchange steps, the shareholders of Klarna Holding AB (publ) exchanged their shares for an equal number of shares in Klarna Group plc. As a result of our corporate reorganization, Klarna Group plc became our ultimate holding company and the parent company of Klarna Holding AB (publ). There was no change in the legal ownership of any of the assets of Klarna Holding AB (publ), nor any change in the ultimate controlling ownership of existing shares or securities of Klarna Holding AB (publ) or Klarna Group plc as a result of the reorganization. As at December 31, 2025, our issued and outstanding share capital consists of 377,507,910 ordinary shares and 328,136,589 Class B shares as per below table: Ordinary shares Class B shares Class C shares Deferred shares Deferred shares Deferred shares Deferred shares Nominal value $0.00010 $0.00010 $0.00010 $0.00073 $11.35013 $0.28000 $0.00010 As of January 01, 2024 364,018,908 — — 364,018,908 — — — Shares issued 1,277,664 — — 1,277,664 — 1 — As of December 31, 2024 365,296,572 — — 365,296,572 — 1 — Shares issued 12,211,338 369,911,294 — 257,772 369,911,294 — — Redesignation (41,774,705) 41,774,705 Capital reduction — — (365,554,344) (369,911,294) (1) (41,774,705) As of December 31, 2025 377,507,910 328,136,589 — — — — — On June 30, 2025, the board of directors of the Company was granted the authority from our shareholders to allot new ordinary shares and other shares, and to grant rights to subscribe for, or to KLARNA GROUP PLC 125 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

convert any security into, new ordinary shares or other shares, up to a maximum aggregate nominal amount (i.e., par value) of $367,502.51, for a period expiring (unless previously renewed, varied or revoked by the Company in general meeting) at the conclusion of the Company’s annual general meeting to be held in 2026 (or, if earlier, on June 30, 2026). The holders of ordinary shares are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by the shareholders, are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be approved from time to time by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for such dividends, and in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Klarna Group plc, the holders of ordinary shares are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of Each Class B share will be entitled to ten votes per share but will have no dividend or other effective economic rights. Class B shares are not transferable. Following certain transfers of interests in our ordinary shares by holders of our Class B shares or their affiliates, a related number of their Class B shares will automatically convert into deferred shares, which have no voting or effective economic rights. Additionally, all Class B shares will automatically convert into deferred shares after 20 years from the initial public offering and in certain other specified circumstances. Class B shares and deferred shares into which Class B shares may convert will not have any effective economic rights because they will not have a right to dividends and will participate in our liquidation, dissolution or winding up only after we distributed to holders of our share capital $10.0 million for each ordinary share and $5.0 million for each Class C share they hold, which we do not expect to occur. In March 2025, Klarna Group plc’s board of directors approved a subdivision of ordinary shares of Klarna Group plc on a 1-to-12 basis, which was effected on March 6, 2025. The subdivision also resulted in the issuance of 365,445,384 deferred shares with a nominal value per share of $0.0007333. This number included 148,812 deferred shares in respect of ordinary shares that were issued in January 2025. Such deferred shares had no voting rights and no effective economic rights, because such shares did not have a right to dividends and would have only participated in a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up after the Company distributed to its shareholders $10.0 million for each ordinary share ($5.0 million for each Class C share) then in issuance, which the Company does not expect to occur. During 2025, an aggregate of 12,211,338 ordinary shares was issued related to: • 299,572 ordinary shares granted to employees, including our executive officer; • 5,000,000 ordinary shares were issued under the initial public offering on September 10, 2025, with directly attributable transaction costs related to the issuance of new ordinary shares of $8.5 million deducted from equity. These costs, primarily underwriting fees, were offset against the gross proceeds, with only the net proceeds recognized in Additional paid in capital; • 2,563,600 ordinary shares were issued following exchanges of ordinary shares in a subsidiary of Klarna Group plc pursuant to vesting of the Group’s Legacy RSU program; • 1,948,166 ordinary shares were issued following an exchange of ordinary shares in a subsidiary of Klarna Group plc pursuant the Group’s Employee Equity Program; • 2,400,000 ordinary shares were issued following exercise of share warrants granted to certain partners in exchange for services.

Immediately prior to the completion of initial public offering 369,911,294 Class B shares with a nominal value of $0.0001 and 369,911,294 deferred shares with a nominal value of $11.35013 were issued to holders of our ordinary shares at that time. These shares were issued by capitalizing the merger reserve, recognized within additional paid in capital, that arose for statutory purposes under the Companies Act 2006 in connection with the incorporation of Klarna Group plc in 2024. Upon ordinary shares being sold by selling shareholders in the IPO, including following the exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriters to purchase additional ordinary shares from selling shareholders, and post-IPO transfers, 41,774,705 Class B shares were redesignated into deferred shares with a nominal value of $0.0001. In September 2025, Klarna Group plc capitalized the UK statutory merger reserve, reallocating $4.2bn billion from additional paid-in capital to share capital. Subsequently, in November 2025, Klarna Group plc completed a capital reduction under the UK Companies Act to create distributable reserves, cancelling the balance standing to the credit of its share premium account and all of its then-existing deferred shares resulting in a reallocation within equity with $4.6 billion reallocated from share capital and additional paid in capital to retained earnings. This transaction resulted in no change to total equity, and had no impact on profit or loss or cash flows. Additional paid-in capital In addition to the excess of the consideration received from issuance of shares over their nominal value, additional paid-in capital also includes any other contributions made by the shareholders of the Company, share-based payments and any incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of shares shown as a deduction from equity. During 2025 and 2024, the Company’s proceeds related to new share issuances were recognized net of $8.5m and nil of issuance costs, respectively. Reserves Reserves comprise foreign currency translation differences arising from the translation of the assets and liabilities of foreign operations, and the cumulative net changes in fair value of debt instruments classified as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”), including related expected credit loss movements. Amounts recognized in other comprehensive income are subsequently reclassified to profit or loss upon derecognition of the underlying financial assets. Non-controlling interests Non-controlling interests primarily consist of Additional Tier 1 (“AT1”) securities, issued by subsidiaries of Klarna Group plc, which are floating rate perpetual subordinated securities with no fixed maturity or redemption date. The securities rank behind the claims against Klarna’s unsubordinated creditors including any instruments that constitute Tier 2 Notes and are pari passu with the claims of other holders of AT1 securities issued by the Group in the event of a bankruptcy or liquidation. The securities bear a variable rate of interest based on the three-month STIBOR rate until the redemption date. Interest on the securities will be due and payable only at the sole discretion of Klarna, and the Company may at any time elect to cancel any interest payment (or any part thereof) which would otherwise be payable on any interest payment date. There are also certain restrictions on the payment of interest as specified in the terms. KLARNA GROUP PLC 127 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

The notes are perpetual and have no fixed date for redemption. The AT1 securities are redeemable at the option of the Company at any time during the initial call period, which is the fifth anniversary from the initiation issue date, or at any interest payment date falling after the initial call period. In addition, Klarna can redeem all outstanding AT1 securities on any interest payment date or vary their terms for certain regulatory or tax reasons. Any repayments require the prior consent of the Swedish FSA. If at any time the Group’s consolidated Additional Tier 1 ratio should fall below 7%, a write-down is made as a reduction of the total nominal amount and considered to be an unconditional capital contribution by the AT1 holders. Following a write-down of the total nominal amount, Klarna, at its discretion but subject to obtaining relevant approval from its shareholders, can reinstate any portion of the principal of the AT1 securities. Unless write-up of the principal of the AT1 securities is permitted and possible in accordance with Central Security Depositories (“CSD”) regulations, reinstatement shall be made by way of issuing new notes that qualify as AT1 capital. During 2025 and 2024 the Company issued nil and $142 million of AT1 securities, respectively, and redeemed nil and nil of AT1 securities, respectively. Following the Group’s corporate reorganization in May 2024, AT1 securities are considered non-controlling interests as they are issued by subsidiaries of Klarna Group plc. Non-controlling interests also include equity interests arising from share-based payment arrangements under which certain participants were granted ownership interests in subsidiaries of Klarna Group plc.

Note 22 Share-based payments This Note 22 provides an overview of the various share-based payment costs during the periods and additional information on the different equity-based programs. Certain of the equity-based instruments described below were issued by our subsidiaries and/or convert into ordinary shares of our subsidiaries. The increase in share-based payment costs in 2025 compared to prior periods principally reflects the establishment of the Company's equity compensation programs at the Klarna Group plc level in connection with the Company's initial public offering, and the grant of share warrants to partners in exchange for consumer acquisition services. The expense recognized during the year is based on grant-date fair values and fair value of services received, in accordance with IFRS 2, for awards that are subject to multi-year vesting schedules and exercise prices that may significantly exceed the current share price. The following table presents share-based payment costs, inclusive of social security charges, recognized in 2025 and 2024 in the consolidated statements of profit or loss: Year Ended December 31, 2025 2024 Employee restricted share unit program ................................................................... $ (75) $ (40) Business acquisition-related awards .......................................................................... — (2) Share warrants and share options ..............................................................................

Weighted average exercise prices for Class C share options are expressed per Class C share; the equivalent exercise price expressed per ordinary share is double the figures shown. All Class C share options outstanding as of December 31, 2025 were granted exclusively to Mr. Siemiatkowski under the C Share Awards Plan described in Item 6. 3 In 2025, the terms of 1,477,164 share options originally granted to Mr. Siemiatkowski in the fourth quarter of 2024 were amended to allow such options to be exercised into 2,941,236 Class C shares (or 1,470,618 ordinary shares), reflecting the conversion ratio under which two Class C share options correspond to one ordinary share. The amendment did not reduce the exercise price of the underlying award; the weighted average exercise price of $19.1 per Class C share shown above is equivalent to $38.2 per ordinary share, consistent with the original grant terms. The modification did not result in an incremental share-based payment charge.

Employee Restricted Share Unit Programs The Group operates two Restricted Share Unit programs: the Legacy RSU Program and Klarna Group plc RSU Program. The Legacy RSU Program was implemented in 2020. It is available to certain employees as well as certain third-party contributors. Each participant is granted a set number of Legacy RSUs on the grant date, which generally vest over a four years graded vesting schedule, with 25% of the total shares vesting each year. Upon vesting, one Legacy RSU entitles the holder to receive one share in a subsidiary, reflected as non-controlling interest in the consolidated financial statements. If the participant leaves Klarna, unvested RSUs are forfeited. It is intended that at a future date shareholders will have the opportunity to exchange their subsidiary company shares for Klarna Group plc shares. The number of Klarna Group plc shares to be exchanged is dependent upon the value of Klarna Group at the time of the exchange. If an exchange between subsidiary share and Klarna Group plc share would have taken place as at the end of 2025 and 2024, the exchange yield would have been 0.25 and 0.25 shares of Klarna Group plc share for one subsidiary share, respectively. The number of equivalent Klarna Group plc shares is presented as if the Legacy RSUs program issued by a subsidiary of Klarna Group plc had been exchanged into Klarna Group plc ordinary shares as of the reporting date. If exchanged, the number of shares exchanged is dependent on the value of Klarna Group plc at the time of exchange. In 2025, a new RSU Program (the “Klarna Group plc RSUs”) was established as a separate share- based payment program. Each participant is granted a set number of Klarna Group RSUs on the grant KLARNA GROUP PLC 131 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

date, which generally vest over a four-year staggered vesting schedule, with 25% of the total shares vesting each year. Upon vesting, one Klarna Group plc RSU entitles the holder to receive one ordinary share in Klarna Group plc. If the participant leaves Klarna, unvested RSUs are forfeited. The number of shares distributed to employees under both the Legacy RSU Program and the Klarna Group plc RSU Program is approved by the board of directors of Klarna, and accounted for as equity-settled share-based payments. The share-based compensation expense is based on the grant-date fair value of the awards and recognized over the vesting period, in line with the graded vesting method. The fair value of both RSU Programs is determined with reference to the Klarna Group plc share price. Upon vesting, in accordance with certain countries’ tax laws, we are required to withhold an amount to settle the employee’s tax associated with a share-based payment and transfer that amount in cash to taxing authorities on the employee’s behalf. Such amounts are withheld from our employees in accordance with applicable laws, either through deduction of salary or withholding a number of vested shares. Share Warrants and Share Options In certain jurisdictions, the Group offers share warrants and options to certain individual contributors, including employees as well as executive officers and directors. Prior to 2024, these were awarded in the form of share warrants issued by a subsidiary of Klarna Group plc. In 2024, the Group also began granting share options to acquire ordinary shares of Klarna Group plc ("Ordinary share options"). In 2025, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee also approved the grant of options to acquire Class C shares ("Class C share options") to Mr. Siemiatkowski under the C Share Awards Plan, as described in Item 6. The warrants and options are subject to graded vesting over a term of typically four to five years. The awards are accounted for as equity-settled share-based payments, with the fair value determined at the grant date and expensed over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of the number of awards that will eventually vest. The Group has issued share warrants and options by both Klarna Group plc and subsidiaries of Klarna Group plc. Each share warrant issued by a subsidiary of Klarna Group plc entitles the recipient to purchase one ordinary share in Klarna Holding AB (publ) or a subsidiary at the agreed strike price. We anticipate periodically facilitating the exchange of subsidiary shares acquired upon exercise of such warrants into ordinary shares of Klarna Group plc. If exchanged, the number of shares exchanged is dependent on the value of Klarna Group plc at the time of exchange. If such an exchange would have taken place at the end of 2025, 2024 and 2023, the exchange yield would have been 12, 12 and 12 shares for one subsidiary share, respectively. The number of equivalent Klarna Group plc shares is presented as if the share warrants issued by a subsidiary of Klarna Group plc had been exchanged into Klarna Group plc ordinary shares as of the reporting date. Each ordinary share option or warrant issued by Klarna Group plc entitles the recipient to purchase one ordinary share in Klarna Group plc at the agreed strike price. Two Class C share options entitle the recipient to acquire either one ordinary share or two Class C shares, at the recipient's election. As described in Item 6, Class C shares carry enhanced voting rights, subject to an annual acquisition limit and an aggregate voting cap. All Class C share options outstanding were granted exclusively to Mr. Siemiatkowski. In 2025, the board of directors of the Company, acting on the recommendation of the Remuneration and Nomination Committee, approved the grant of options to acquire 8,834,736 ordinary shares to members of the Company's management team at a weighted average exercise KLARNA GROUP PLC 132 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

price of $104 per share. Additionally, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee granted options to acquire 17,505,672 Class C shares to Mr. Siemiatkowski at a weighted average exercise price, expressed as the equivalent of one ordinary share, of $91.80, as further described under "Equity Compensation paid to Mr. Siemiatkowski" in Item 6. The Committee also amended the terms of options granted to Mr. Siemiatkowski in the fourth quarter of 2024 to allow for such options to be exercised into 2,941,236 Class C shares (or 1,470,618 ordinary shares); this amendment did not reduce the exercise price of the underlying award. As of the date of this report, all of these options remain substantially out of the money. Mr. Siemiatkowski may elect to acquire, in his discretion, either ordinary shares or Class C shares upon the exercise of such Class C options. Certain warrants have been acquired by employees in exchange for a cash payment of the fair market value at grant date. Since preemption rights related to these awards transfer over a specified period they are accounted for as equity-settled share-based payments; however, no associated expense is recognized. Klarna has granted share warrants to selected partners, including merchants and other service providers, in return for services. In 2025 and 2024, we entered into commercial agreements with certain partners under which we granted warrants in exchange for consumer acquisition services to expand our user base, which we determined to be distinct. These arrangements are equity-settled and are accounted for as equity-settled share-based payments. In 2025, we entered into commercial agreements with certain partners under which we granted 15,740,059 warrants, each warrant to acquire one ordinary share in Klarna Group plc, in exchange for consumer acquisition services to expand our user base and brand awareness. We determined the fair value of such services to be $233 million comprising consumer acquisition of $50 million and brand awareness of $183 million, using the direct method, and recognized such costs as share-based payments expense, included in sales and marketing, over the expected performance period within the commercial agreement. During 2025, 3,910,393 warrants vested, of which 2,400,000 warrants were exercised. The underlying services are expected to be provided over the five-year term of the agreement. We recognized an expense of $27 million related to the fair value of the services in 2025, deferring $75 million of expense to be recognized over the period of the agreement when the services are expected to be provided. The grant of the warrants gives rise to a tax charge in the year of grant which is recoverable to the extent warrants are exercised. We recognized a current tax liability of $48 million in connection with the grant during the first quarter of 2025, with the associated tax charge recognized in equity. Upon exercise of the 2,400,000 warrants during the second quarter of 2025, the related current tax liability was reduced by $22 million. The remaining tax expense is expected to be recoverable when the warrants are exercised. In 2024, 1,299,360 warrants were granted, each warrant to acquire one ordinary share in Klarna Group plc, under such arrangements, in exchange for consumer acquisition services to expand our user base and brand awareness. We determined the fair value of the services to be $17.9 million, using the direct method for customer acquisition costs and this is recognized as share-based payments expense, included in sales and marketing, over the relevant performance period within the commercial agreement. We have also granted warrants to certain merchants for non-distinct services and the costs related to these warrants are recognized as a reduction of revenue.

In 2025, the Company, through its indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Klarna Bank AB, repurchased an aggregate of 1,267,752 warrants to acquire Klarna Holding AB’s ordinary shares (such warrants, “KHAB warrants”), which were issued prior to our corporate reorganization at various times under our legacy equity incentive schemes. The repurchase price for the KHAB warrants was $17.2 million, based on the initial public offering price of $40.00 per ordinary share, being the fair value of the equity instrument at the date of repurchase. All KHAB warrants repurchased were fully vested at the repurchase date, except 6,456, for which an accelerated expense of less than $0.1 million was recognized at the repurchase date. For warrants issued by a subsidiary of Klarna Group plc, the range of exercise prices for warrants outstanding as of December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 is between$0.10 and $1,508. The weighted average remaining contractual life is 1.9 years, 2.7 years and 3.5 years as of December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 respectively. The number of exercisable warrants was 40,000, and 51,500 as of December 31 2024 and 2023, respectively, and there is no new exercisable warrant of this category in 2025. For warrants issued by Klarna Group plc, the range of exercise prices for warrants outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 is between $34 and $51. The weighted average remaining contractual life is 4.2 years and 3 years as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The number of exercisable warrants and options is 2,145,590 and 1,299,360 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For options issued by Klarna Group plc, the range of exercise prices for options outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 is between $38 and $114. The weighted average remaining contractual life for share options was 3.4 years and 3.6 years as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The number of exercisable share options was 2,935,177 and 1,460,856 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For C Class options issued by Klarna Group plc, the range of exercise prices for C Class options outstanding as of December 31, 2025 is between $19 and $57. The weighted average remaining contractual life is 3.7 years as of December 31, 2025. The number of exercisable C Class options is 9,523,581 as of December 31, 2025. There were no C Class options outstanding prior to the year ended December 31, 2025. Klarna uses the Black-Sholes model when calculating the fair value of share warrants and options granted to individual contributors, as well as certain partners when the fair value of goods and services cannot be reliably measured. The Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the near future and, therefore, uses an expected dividend yield of zero in the option valuation model. The expected volatility is determined taking into consideration the historical volatility of the Company’s common share and the historical volatility of comparable public companies. The risk-free rate for instruments issued by subsidiary of Klarna Group plc is based on Swedish Central Bank (Sw. Sveriges Riksbank) bonds. The risk free-rate rate for instruments issued by Klarna Group plc is based on U.S. treasury bonds.. The inputs used within the model for the share warrants and options granted were: KLARNA GROUP PLC 134 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

The weighted average fair value of warrants issued by a subsidiary of Klarna Group plc granted during 2024 was $17. The weighted average fair value of options issued by Klarna Group plc granted during 2025 and 2024 was $53 and $9. The weighted average fair value of C Class Options issued by Klarna Group plc granted during 2025 was $29. Equity-Related Instruments Granted in Connection with Business Acquisitions The Group issued equity in Klarna Holding AB (publ) to acquired employees in relation to several business acquisitions in 2020, 2021 and 2022. The equity grant included a four-year vesting period and is accounted for as equity-settled share-based compensation and recognized as a post- business combination expense. When employees exited the Company during the periods, the future personnel costs associated with the unvested equity were expensed in the statement of profit or loss on the last day of employment. The instruments have been measured based on the fair market value of the underlying ordinary shares at the date of grant. In connection with the reorganization completed in May 2024, pursuant to which Klarna Group plc became the ultimate parent company of the Group, all remaining unvested equity-related instruments under this program were accelerated and expensed, resulting in the release of 329,484 shares during 2024 at a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $51 per share. As of December 31, 2024, there were no shares outstanding under this program. Employee Equity Program The Group had a restricted share award program in which some employees acquired restricted shares in a group subsidiary entity that retains an ownership interest in Klarna Bank AB (publ), which became fully vested in 2023. The restricted share awards were accounted for as an equity-settled share-based payment. The restricted shares were acquired by employees in exchange for a cash payment at fair market value, measured at the grant date, and therefore no associated expense was recognized. Upon vesting, participants retained ordinary shares in one of our subsidiaries holding an ownership interest in Klarna Bank AB (publ), reflected as non-controlling interest in the consolidated financial statements. The number of ordinary shares held in the group subsidiary entity as of December 31, 2024 was 28,762. In 2024, 2,347 shares held by former employees were exchanged for shares in Klarna Holding AB (publ), respectively. In April 2025, the 28,762 shares held by participants were exchanged for the issuance of 1,948,166 ordinary shares in Klarna Group plc.

Direct Share Issuance During 2025 and 2024, the Group granted 150,760 and 216,468 ordinary shares in Klarna Group plc, respectively, to certain employees, including executive officers and Board of Directors. The shares were accounted for as equity-settled share-based payments. There were no vesting conditions or restrictions placed on the awards and, accordingly, the related share-based compensation expense, based on the grant-date fair value of the awards, was recognized immediately. The weighted average fair values of the ordinary shares granted were $34 and $34, in 2025 and 2024, respectively. Note 23 Information on related parties Milkywire In 2021, following a competitive selection process, Klarna engaged Milkywire AB ("Milkywire") to provide sustainability related services, including the sourcing, vetting and monitoring of climate and nature initiatives, as well as the facilitation of carbon credit purchases from third-party providers on Klarna's behalf. Milkywire was founded in 2018 by Nina Siemiatkowski, who is the spouse of Sebastian Siemiatkowski, our Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer. Mrs. Siemiatkowski remains the chief executive officer and majority owner of Milkywire. Klarna paid Milkywire $0.9 million in 2025 and $0.7 million in 2024 for sustainability related services. Separately, Klarna transferred to Milkywire an additional $0.5 million in 2025 and $1.0 million in 2024 for the purchase of carbon credits on Klarna's behalf; these amounts were paid in full by Milkywire to the third-party providers of the carbon credits and Milkywire did not retain any margin on these transactions. The engagement of Milkywire, including the fees paid, was approved by the board of directors with Mr. Siemiatkowski recusing himself from the related deliberations and approval, in accordance with the Company's conflicts of interest policies. The board believes the fees paid to Milkywire reflect competitive rates for the services provided.. WRLD Foundation The Company made charitable contributions of $2.3 million in 2025 and $3.8 million in 2024 to the WRLD Foundation, a registered nonprofit organization in the United States and Sweden. Nina Siemiatkowski is a board member of the WRLD Foundation. The WRLD Foundation distributes all contributions received from Klarna to underlying recipient organizations that have been sourced and vetted by Milkywire as part of Klarna's planet health initiative; the identity of all recipient organizations has been reported to Klarna. These contributions were approved by the board of directors, with Mr. Siemiatkowski recusing himself from the related deliberations and approval. Compensation to the board of directors and senior management The table below summarizes the compensation paid or payable to the board of directors and senior management. The increase in total compensation from $65 million in 2024 to $99 million in 2025 principally reflects the introduction of equity-based compensation programs at the Klarna Group plc level in connection with the Company's initial public offering. The amounts reported for fixed and variable equity-based compensation represent grant-date fair values calculated in accordance with IFRS 2 and do not represent cash compensation paid to, or value currently received KLARNA GROUP PLC 136 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

by, the recipients. A significant portion of the equity-based compensation reported in 2025 relates to awards with exercise prices substantially above the current share price, as further described in Note 22 and in Item 6: Salaries and other remuneration to the board and senior management 2025 2024 Basic salary/fee ............................................................................................................... $ 13 $ 13 Fixed equity-based compensation ............................................................................. 36 32 Variable equity-based compensation ........................................................................ 48 18 Other variable-based compensation .......................................................................... 1 1 Other benefits .................................................................................................................. 1 1 Pension expenses ........................................................................................................... 1 1 Total ................................................................................................................................... $ 99 $ 65 In December 2024, the Group granted 216,468 ordinary shares and 400,065 share options to certain members of senior management. The shares were granted by the board of directors of Klarna Group plc and were accounted for as equity-settled share-based payments. During 2025, the Group granted 108,960 ordinary shares and 8,834,736 share options at a weighted average exercise price of $104 to certain members of senior management. Additionally, the board of directors, acting on the recommendation of the Remuneration and Nomination Committee, granted options to acquire 17,505,672 Class C shares to Mr. Siemiatkowski, and amended the terms of options previously granted to Mr. Siemiatkowski in the fourth quarter of 2024 to allow for such options to be exercised into 2,941,236 Class C shares (or 1,470,618 ordinary shares); this amendment did not reduce the exercise price of the underlying award. Two Class C share options entitle the recipient to either one ordinary share or two Class C shares, at Mr. Siemiatkowski's election. The weighted average exercise price, expressed as the equivalent of one ordinary share, is $91.8, representing a significant premium to the initial public offering price of $40.00. As of the date of this report, the share options granted to both senior management and Mr. Siemiatkowski remain substantially out of the money. The options vest over a four-year period. The shares and options described above were granted by the board of directors of Klarna Group plc, acting on the recommendation of the Remuneration and Nomination Committee, and were accounted for as equity-settled share-based payments, with the related expense recognized over the applicable vesting periods in accordance with IFRS 2 based on grant-date fair values. During 2025, the Company, through its indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Klarna Bank AB, repurchased an aggregate of 1,267,752 warrants as detailed in Note 22 – Share-Based Payments. Of the total repurchased warrants, 17,500 were held by members of the Company’s management team. KLARNA GROUP PLC 137 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

During 2025 and 2024, deferred tax assets and liabilities have been recognized resulting in a $6 million and $8 million benefit in the consolidated statements of profit or loss, respectively. Deferred tax assets have been recognized where the recognition criteria are met, of which $5 million and $6 million are in respect of tax losses for 2025 and 2024, respectively. The gross deferred tax assets and liabilities have been set off on the balance sheet to the extent the requirements for netting are met. Tax losses carried forward in the Group for which tax assets are not recognized in the balance sheet amount to $2.1 billion and $1.4 billion gross for the years ending December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These carry forward tax losses primarily originated in Sweden and Germany, and there are no time restrictions on the use of these losses. Other deductible temporary differences which have not been recognized amount to $163 million and $0 million gross for the years ending December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Deferred tax assets have not been recognized in respect of these temporary differences as they have not been assessed as likely to offset taxable profits elsewhere in the Group under the IAS 12 recognition criteria. The Group has applied the exception, mandated by an amendment to IAS 12, to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes. Note 25 Net profit (loss) per share Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to shareholders of Klarna Group plc by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted profit (loss) per share is calculated similarly but includes the effect of potential ordinary shares using the treasury stock method, to the extent that the inclusion of these shares is dilutive. Potential ordinary shares consist of incremental shares issuable in connection with warrants and share options. The Group has also granted RSUs, restricted share awards and certain warrants in subsidiaries which are exercisable or convertible in subsidiary company shares and are not considered potential ordinary shares in Klarna Group plc. However, such instruments, which are potential ordinary shares in subsidiaries, may affect net profit (loss) per share due to their impact on non-controlling interest for Klarna Group plc.

Due to the net loss and the resulting anti-dilutive effect in 2025 all potential ordinary shares are excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation, and diluted loss per share equals basic loss per share for these periods. Potential ordinary shares in subsidiaries have an insignificant impact on non-controlling interest for purposes of the diluted profit per share for the year ended December 31, 2025. The computation of loss per share for the respective periods is as follows: 2025 2024 Numerator: Net profit (loss) attributable to shareholders of Klarna Group plc ...................... $ (294) $ 3 Denominator: Weighted average number of ordinary shares - basic ............................................ 370,654,083 363,993,690 Dilutive potential ordinary shares ............................................................................... — 418,379 Weighted average number of ordinary shares - diluted ......................................... 370,654,083 364,412,068 Net profit (loss) per share attributable to shareholders of Klarna Group plc: Basic .................................................................................................................................. $ (0.79) $ 0.01 Diluted ............................................................................................................................... $ (0.79) $ 0.01 Note 26 Principal Accountant Fees and Services Ernst & Young LLP have acted as our principal accountants for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

ID 559443-0448 25,000 100 % 2,721 During the first quarter of 2025, Klarna completed an internal legal entity restructuring pursuant to which Klarna Midco AB, Larkan Holding AB and Larkan III AB through Larkan XI AB (collectively, the “Incentive Vehicles”) were transferred from Klarna Holding AB to Klarna Group plc, the ultimate parent entity. The transfer was effected through a series of intra-group transactions, resulting in Klarna Group plc obtaining direct legal ownership of the Incentive Vehicles through a dividend in kind. As the transaction was effected between entities under common control, the Company applied its accounting policy for such transactions in its separate financial statements. Under this policy, non-cash distributions received from subsidiaries are recognized at the carrying amount of the investment distributed at the date of transfer. Accordingly, Klarna Group plc recognized the incentive vehicles at the carrying amount at which the distributing subsidiary held the investments immediately prior to the distribution. A corresponding amount of $283 million was recognized as dividend income in profit or loss. Prior to the transaction, the incentive vehicles were indirect subsidiaries of the Company and were consolidated within the Klarna Group plc consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS 10. Upon completion of the restructuring, the Company obtained direct legal ownership of the Incentive Vehicles. There was no change in the ultimate controlling party before and after the transaction. KLARNA GROUP PLC 146 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 2 During 2025, the Parent Company granted its shares to a commercial partner as consideration for distinct services received by Klarna Inc. In line with the Parent Company’s accounting policy, this gave rise to an investment in Klarna Inc. Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

The incentive vehicles sponsor share-based payment arrangements for employees and service providers within the Group. Following the restructuring, the Company became the direct parent of the issuing entities. As the awards relate to equity instruments of Group entities and the Group has continued to receive the related services, there was no modification of the awards, and no incremental fair value was recognized. The accounting for share-based payment arrangements continues in accordance with IFRS 2 for group share-based payment transactions. The restructuring did not result in any change in total compensation cost recognized at the consolidated level. Following the IPO, pursuant to which Klarna Group plc raised net proceeds of $169 million, net of underwriting discounts and other offering costs, Klarna Group plc contributed $66 million to Klarna Midco AB and $140 million to Klarna Bank AB, in each case in exchange for newly issued shares, to support general corporate purposes, including working capital, operating expenses, and capital expenditures.

The guaranteed obligations include the ongoing servicing of receivables, remittance of collections to investors, compliance with contractual undertakings under the relevant agreements, and any indemnity payments that may fall due thereunder. The Directors are not aware of any circumstances that would give rise to a call on these guarantees. The Principal Obligors continue to perform their obligations under the agreements to which these guarantees relate, and the Directors have no grounds for believing that the guarantees will be called upon. WebBank credit programme guarantees In connection with Klarna's consumer credit offerings in the United States, Klarna Inc. and Klarna Bank AB (publ) have arrangements in place with WebBank, pursuant to which WebBank originates consumer loans that are subsequently purchased and serviced by Klarna Inc. or Klarna Bank AB (publ). The Company has provided guarantees of all obligations of Klarna Inc. and Klarna Bank AB (publ) under these arrangements on an uncapped basis. KLARNA GROUP PLC 149 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

The amount outstanding under these guarantees fluctuates daily in line with loan origination volumes. As at 31 December 2025, the aggregate amount guaranteed by the Company under these arrangements was approximately $168 million. The Directors have no grounds for believing that these guarantees will be called upon. In this regard, the Directors note that Klarna Bank AB (publ) is the primary or co-obligor under the WebBank arrangements, is a licensed bank regulated by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (Finansinspektionen), and complies in all respects with the regulatory capital requirements applicable to it. The maximum aggregate exposure of the Company under all guarantees described in this note is considered by the Directors to be the total outstanding loan balance subject to guarantee at any given time. These guarantees have been classified as financial guarantee contracts and recognised at fair value of nil, as no premium is charged and the primary obligor is a well-capitalised regulated bank. The expected credit loss has been assessed as immaterial. Note 7 Subsequent events The Group has evaluated all events that have occurred subsequent to December 31, 2025, through the date that the consolidated financial statements were approved on March 10, 2026 by the Board of Directors. No significant events have occurred during the subsequent period. KLARNA GROUP PLC 150 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

GLOSSARY OF TERMS The following are abbreviations, acronyms and definitions of certain terms used in this report: “Active Klarna consumers” means consumers who have made a purchase or a payment using a Klarna-branded product or logged into the Klarna app within the past 12 months, calculated as of the end of that 12-month period. This metric represents the number of our consumers who engaged in a revenue-generating activity in a relevant period, either by making a purchase or a payment using Klarna (therefore generating merchant and/or interest revenue) or logging into the Klarna app (therefore generating advertising revenue). "Adjusted operating result" means our operating income (loss) for a period, adjusted to exclude the effects of items that we believe are not reflective of our underlying operating performance, including share-based compensation charges, depreciation and amortization of acquired intangible assets and certain other non-recurring items. We present adjusted operating result as a supplemental measure because we believe it provides useful information to investors regarding our financial performance. Adjusted operating result is not a measure defined by IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our operating income (loss) presented in accordance with IFRS. “AI” means artificial intelligence. This term encompasses various technologies that enable computers and machines to simulate human learning, comprehension, problem-solving, decision- making, creativity and autonomy. As such, “AI” includes, but is not limited to, generative AI (which refers to AI technologies capable of generating text, images, videos or other data using generative models, including in response to prompts) and machine learning (“ML”) (which refers to AI technologies using algorithms and statistical models to analyze and draw inferences from patterns in data without following explicit instructions). “AOV” means average order value, measured by dividing our GMV for a period by the number of transactions conducted on our network in that period. “API” means application programming interface, which is a general term for programming techniques that are available for software developers when they integrate with a particular service or application. In the payments industry, APIs are usually provided by any party participating in the money flow (such as payment gateways, processors and service providers) to facilitate the money transfer process. “ARPAC” means average revenue per active consumer, measured as our total revenue for the trailing twelve months, divided by the number of active Klarna consumers over that period. “Average balance per active Klarna consumer” means our total loan receivables outstanding at the end of a period, divided by the number of active Klarna consumers for that period. “Average revenue per employee” means our total revenue from the trailing twelve months (adjusted for the sale of KCO), divided by the period end number of our employees. "BNPL" means buy now, pay later, a form of short-term consumer financing that allows consumers to make purchases and pay for them over time, typically in installments, often without interest if repaid within a specified period. BNPL products are a core component of our consumer offering. KLARNA GROUP PLC 151 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

“CAGR” means the compound annual growth rate, measured as the annualized average rate of the growth between given dates, assuming growth takes place at an exponentially compounded rate. "CET1" means common equity tier 1, a measure of a bank's core capital under the Basel III regulatory framework. CET1 capital consists primarily of ordinary shares, retained earnings and other comprehensive income. The CET1 ratio is calculated by dividing CET1 capital by total risk-weighted assets and is a key indicator of a bank's financial strength and ability to absorb losses. “CFPB” means the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. "Cohort" means a group of consumer loans originated within the same defined time period, typically a calendar quarter. Cohort-based analysis is used to track the credit performance and loss development of loans sharing a common origination period over time. "Conversion rate" means the percentage of consumer sessions or checkout initiations on a merchant's platform that result in a completed purchase. We present conversion rate as an indicator of the effectiveness of our checkout and payment solutions in reducing friction for consumers and merchants. “Companies Act” means the U.K. Companies Act 2006. “Customers” means consumers and merchants using our network. “DKK” means the Danish kroner, the official currency of Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands. “Dodd-Frank Act” means the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. "DPD" means days past due, a measure of the number of calendar days that have elapsed since a scheduled payment on a consumer loan became overdue. We use DPD thresholds (such as 30+ DPD and 60+ DPD) as indicators of delinquency and credit quality within our loan receivables portfolio. “DTC” means The Depository Trust Company. “EEA” means the European Economic Area. “EU” means the European Union. “EU GDPR” means the EU General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679. “EUR” or “€” means the euro, the official currency of the European Union. “Exchange Act” means the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. “FDIC” means the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. “GBP” means the British pound, the official currency of The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. “GMV” means gross merchandise volume, measured for a period as the total monetary value of all completed purchases on our network in that period, excluding any additional fees (such as interest, reminder or other fees) and any subsequent actions (such as returns, settlements and disputes).

“HMRC” means HM Revenue & Customs, the U.K. tax authority. “IASB” means the International Accounting Standards Board. “IFRS” means the International Financial Reporting Standards. "Interchange" means the fee paid by a merchant's bank (the acquiring bank) to a consumer's bank (the issuing bank) each time a card-based payment transaction is processed. Where we act as or partner with an issuing bank, interchange revenue represents a component of our merchant revenue. “IT” means information technology. “KCO” means Klarna Checkout, our online checkout solution, which was sold by us effective October 1, 2024. “KFSUK” means Klarna Financial Services UK Limited, our U.K. subsidiary. “Klarna Bank” means Klarna Bank AB (publ), our banking subsidiary. “Klarna Holding” means Klarna Holding AB (publ), our indirect subsidiary and former parent entity. “Larkan” means Larkan AB (publ), our indirect subsidiary through which we historically granted RSUs. “LCR” means liquidity coverage ratio. The LCR has been developed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the “Basel Committee”) to promote the short-term resilience of the liquidity risk profile of banks by ensuring that they have sufficient high-quality liquid assets (“HQLA”), i.e., assets that can be converted easily and immediately in private markets into cash, to survive a significant stress scenario lasting 30 calendar days. This ratio should be equal to at least 100% on an ongoing basis. LCR is calculated by dividing HQLA by projected net cash outflows during a 30-day stressed period. “Merchants” means the businesses that offer their goods and services to consumers on our network. The number of merchants presented in this report refers to the number of unique combinations of brands (e.g., H&M) available on our network and the markets where such brands are available (e.g., Sweden). “MoR” means merchant of record. “Net Dollar Revenue Retention Rate” measures our revenue retained from merchants over a given period. We calculate Net Dollar Revenue Retention Rate for a given period (the “current period”) by dividing our revenue in that period by our revenue in the immediately preceding period of the same length (the “prior period”), in each case, from merchants that processed transactions on our network in the prior period. Our Net Dollar Revenue Retention Rate therefore includes the effect on revenue of any merchant renewals, expansion, contraction and churn but excludes the effect of revenue from merchants that contributed to our revenue in the current period but not in the prior period. A Net Dollar Revenue Retention Rate greater than 100% for a given period implies overall growth in revenue from merchants that were already processing transactions on our network in the prior period. KLARNA GROUP PLC 153 ANNUAL REPORT 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: EF828ECA-3A42-4E60-8AA6-31BB61DF6840

1 Directors' Remuneration Report 2025 This directors’ remuneration report (including the directors’ remuneration policy set out within it) has been prepared as a standalone document and supersedes the directors’ remuneration report contained at pages 41 – 58 (inclusive) of Klarna Group plc’s annual accounts for the year ended 31 December 2025. This standalone report will be filed with the UK registrar of companies following the Company’s 2026 annual general meeting and will form part of the 6-K filing to the US Securities and Exchange Commission of the AGM materials.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom Statement from the Chair of the Remuneration & Nomination Committee Dear Shareholder, On behalf of the Remuneration and Nomination Committee (the "Committee"), I am pleased to present the Directors' Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 December 2025. This is Klarna Group plc's first Directors' Remuneration Report as a quoted company following the successful listing of its ordinary shares on the New York Stock Exchange. 2025 was a landmark year for Klarna. The Group completed its IPO on 10 September 2025, with ordinary shares now traded on the NYSE under the ticker "KLAR". The year marked the completion of the first phase of Klarna's strategic journey — building a scaled global payments network — and the acceleration of its second phase: converting that network into a global digital bank through cards, savings and point of sale instalments / Fair Financing. The Group delivered strong top-line growth. Full year total revenue grew 25% to $3,509 million, with Q4 representing Klarna's first billion-dollar revenue quarter at $1,082 million, up 38% year-on-year and above guidance. U.S. revenue grew 58% year-on-year in Q4. Full year GMV reached $128 billion (+21%), with Q4 GMV of $38.7 billion (+32%) also exceeding guidance. Strategic product adoption accelerated materially in the second half of the year. Point of sale instalments / Fair Financing GMV grew 165% year-on-year in Q4, reaching 193% in December. The Klarna Card reached 4.2 million active users, with Card GMV growing 209% in Q4 and the Card now representing 15% of total transactions. Most engaged banking consumers grew 101% year-on-year to 15.8 million, generating $107 in revenue per user — more than three times the base population. This growth came with a near-term impact on reported margins. Full year adjusted operating profit was $65 million and the Group recorded a net loss of $273 million. Point of sale instalments / Fair Financing requires upfront provisioning for expected credit losses at origination while interest income accrues over the life of the loan; faster-than-expected adoption therefore temporarily defers reported profitability. Importantly, delinquency rates remain stable, with provision for credit losses declining to 0.65% of GMV in Q4, down 7 basis points quarter-on-quarter, and charge-off performance within expected ranges. Operating discipline was maintained throughout. Since Q4 2022, revenue has grown 104% while operating expenses have decreased 8%. Revenue per employee reached $1.24 million, up 3.6 times since 2022, while headcount is down 49%, with compensation per employee simultaneously increasing. The major remuneration decisions taken during the year were as follows: Adoption of the 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan. On 27 June 2025, the Company adopted the Klarna Group plc 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Omnibus Plan"), which serves as the primary share incentive plan for employees and third-party contributors following the IPO. The Omnibus Plan provides for a range of award types including share options, restricted share units ("RSUs"), performance awards and other share-based instruments. Share option awards to executive directors. During 2025, the Board granted options to acquire 8,834,736 ordinary shares to members of the Company's management team, and a further 108,960 ordinary shares to certain executive officers and directors. 2 2

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 3 Class C share option award to the Chief Executive Officer. In connection with the IPO, the Company introduced a multi-class share structure comprising ordinary shares (one vote, full economic rights), Class B shares (ten votes, no economic rights), and Class C shares reserved for Mr Siemiatkowski and related parties (ten votes, dividends at half the ordinary rate). Class C share issuance is capped so that the voting rights of all Class C shares outstanding cannot exceed 15% of total voting rights immediately prior to the IPO. The Board granted 17,505,672 Class C share options to Sebastian Siemiatkowski, Co-Founder and CEO, vesting over a four-year period at a weighted average exercise price of $45.8. Two Class C share options entitle Mr Siemiatkowski to elect, at his discretion, to receive either one ordinary share or two Class C shares upon exercise. The Board also amended the terms of options previously granted to Mr Siemiatkowski to allow for exercise into 2,941,236 Class C shares (or 1,470,618 ordinary shares). Board and Committee composition changes. During the year, the Board was strengthened with two new non-executive director appointments: Markus Villig (Co-Founder and CEO of Bolt Technology OÜ) joined the Board in February 2025, and Mateusz Staniszewski (Co-Founder and CEO of ElevenLabs Inc.) joined in May 2025. Additionally, Niclas Neglén (Chief Financial Officer) was appointed as an executive director in February 2025. The following changes to remuneration arrangements occurred during 2025: Changes to Executive Remuneration Ahead of the Company's listing, and with a view to retaining our executive directors and attracting and retaining top talent across the organisation, the Committee undertook a review of executive remuneration to ensure it appropriately reflected the increased remit and responsibilities associated with being a publicly listed company. As a result, salaries were adjusted to align with market practice for comparable listed businesses. In undertaking this review, the Committee was supported by independent advisers: Semler Brossy as well as Compensia provided independent compensation benchmarking analyses and advice in relation to directors’ remuneration. Both advisers were appointed by the Committee, had no other connection with the Company or any individual director during their respective periods of engagement, and the Committee is satisfied that the advice received from each was objective and independent. Share subdivision. In March 2025, the Board approved a 1-for-12 share subdivision of the Company's ordinary shares, effected on 6 March 2025. This subdivision affected the number of shares underlying all existing and future equity awards, and all per-share figures and award numbers have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the subdivision throughout this report. Capital reduction and distributable reserves. In September 2025, the Company completed a capital reduction creating distributable reserves of approximately $4.6 billion, reallocated from share capital and additional paid-in capital to retained earnings. This transaction had no impact on total equity, profit or loss, or cash flows, but is relevant to the future ability to pay dividends and the operation of certain equity award arrangements. Repurchase of legacy warrants. During 2025, the Company, through Klarna Bank AB, repurchased an aggregate of 1,267,752 legacy warrants to acquire Klarna Holding AB ordinary shares held by employees and management. Of the repurchased warrants, 17,500 were held by members of the Company's management team. The Committee is satisfied that the remuneration arrangements in place during 2025 appropriately support the Group's strategy, are aligned with shareholders' long-term interests, and are consistent with the requirements of applicable legislation and the Group's remuneration policy. I welcome any dialogue with shareholders on remuneration matters. Yours faithfully, Omid Kordestani Chair, Remuneration and Nomination Committee Klarna Group plc, 27 May 2026

Directors' Remuneration Policy 4

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom A. Legal Basis and Scope 5 5 B. Remuneration Policy — Executive Directors This Directors’ Remuneration Policy (the “Policy”) has been prepared by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee (the “Committee”) of Klarna Group plc (the “Company” or “Klarna”) and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. It is submitted for binding shareholder approval at the Annual General Meeting to be held on 22 June 2026 (the “2026 AGM”). This is the Company’s first Directors’ Remuneration Policy. This Policy will be in force for three years, unless replaced earlier by a revised policy approved by shareholders. As an EU-authorised credit institution, Klarna Bank AB (publ) (“Klarna Bank”), the main operating entity and its subsidiaries within Klarna Group, is subject to mandatory remuneration rules under EU banking law (CRD/EBA Guidelines) and Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority regulations. These rules apply throughout the Klarna Group, with Klarna Group plc responsible for ensuring compliance across all entities. Under these rules, all employee compensation must be clearly designated as either fixed or variable. Fixed compensation — whether delivered as base salary or equity — must be unconditional and cannot be subject to performance conditions, subsequent adjustment, or clawback. Variable compensation, which is performance-related, is subject by applicable banking remuneration rules to deferral over multiple years, risk-adjustment, and malus, clawback and/or recoupment provisions, meaning it can be reduced or recovered if circumstances require. Klarna's remuneration structures have been designed to comply fully with these obligations, including amongst others the maximum ratio between variable and fixed compensation of 1:1, while enabling the Group to remain competitive in attracting and retaining top talent. This section applies to any Executive Director of the Company. Currently, the Executive Directors are Sebastian Siemiatkowski (Co-Founder and CEO) and Niclas Neglén (Chief Financial Officer). This Policy will apply equally to any future Executive Directors appointed to the Board. The Company’s and the Committee’s overarching objective is to provide a total remuneration package for Executive Directors that: (i) enables the Company to retain the highest calibre executive talent from the global technology and financial services sectors in which Klarna competes; (ii) aligns executive reward strongly with the creation of long-term shareholder value; (iii) is appropriately weighted towards variable, equity-based pay; (iv) avoids excessive risk-taking or short-term profit maximisation that could undermine the Company’s long-term objectives or its obligations as the ultimate holding company of regulated entities such as an EU-authorized credit institution; and (v) remains compliant and consistent with the requirements of applicable law including, where relevant, EU and Swedish banking remuneration regulations applicable to Klarna Bank.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 6 6 Element Detail B.1.1 Base Salary Purpose and link to strategy To provide competitive fixed cash remuneration reflecting the scope and responsibilities of the role and enabling recruitment and retention of executive talent from global technology and financial services markets. Operation Base salary is paid monthly in cash. It is normally reviewed annually by the Committee, with any changes normally effective from 1 January of the following year. In reviewing salary, the Committee takes into account: (i) general market salary movements; (ii) salary levels for comparable roles in the Company’s peer group of global technology and fintech companies; (iii) the performance of the Company and of the individual; and (iv) any change to the scope or responsibilities of the role. Maximum There is no defined maximum base salary. Increases will normally be in line with the increase awarded to the wider workforce unless the Committee determines that exceptional circumstances apply. Performance conditions None. Base salary is a fixed element of remuneration. B.1.2 Fixed Equity Award Purpose and link to strategy To provide ongoing alignment between executive and shareholder interests through share-based compensation, consistent with the compensation structures of the US-listed technology companies against which Klarna competes for executive talent. Fixed Equity is not performance-linked in accordance with EBA guidelines but serves to align director and officer interests with those of shareholders over the medium to long term through the applicable vesting schedule and holding restrictions. Operation Each Executive Director is eligible to receive an annual Fixed Equity award under the Klarna Group plc 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”) or any successor plan. Fixed Equity awards are made at the election of each eligible director normally in one of the following forms: (a) share options exercisable at the grant date; (b) vested shares; or (c) for CEO only, Class C Share Options granted pursuant to a standalone award agreement or under Plan C of the Omnibus Plan (with each two Class C Share Options entitling the holder to elect to receive either one ordinary share or two Class C Shares on exercise). Fixed Equity awards normally vest upon grant and normally contain holding restrictions where structured as time-based option or share grants. Awards are not subject to performance conditions. Maximum The maximum grant-date value of the annual Fixed Equity Award to any individual Executive Director is 650% of base salary. Performance conditions None. Fixed Equity award is a fixed element of remuneration. Malus and clawback None. Fixed Equity award is a fixed element of remuneration and not subject to malus and clawback or to the Company’s formal Compensation Recoupment Policy. B.1 Fixed Compensation Executive Directors’ remuneration package is designed to be competitive with US standards reflecting our global coverage, the location of our biggest competitors for executive and other talent, and our listing on the New York Stock Exchange.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 7 Element Detail Purpose and link to strategy To incentivise sustained long-term value creation and align executive reward with shareholder experience over a multi-year period. Variable Equity is performance-based in its design and purpose: it is linked to the long-term growth of shareholder value over a vesting period. Operation Each Executive Director is eligible to receive an annual Variable Equity award under the Omnibus Plan. Awards are made at the election of each eligible director normally in one or more of the following forms: (a) share options, granted with an exercise price determined by external market valuation based on the market value of the Company’s ordinary shares on the date of grant; (b) Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”), vesting into ordinary shares on the applicable vesting date; or (c) for CEO only, Class C Share Options granted pursuant to a standalone award agreement or under Plan C of the Omnibus Plan (with each two Class C Share Options entitling the holder to elect to receive either one ordinary share or two Class C Shares on exercise). Variable Equity awards normally vest at 25% per annum over a four-year period, subject to continued service. The Committee retains discretion to impose a post-vesting holding period on Variable Equity awards. Maximum The maximum grant-date gross value of the annual Variable Equity Award to any individual Executive Director is 100% of fixed compensation (comprising base salary and fixed equity awards). Performance conditions Variable Equity is performance-based in its design and purpose. The time-based vesting schedule is itself a performance and retention mechanism: value is delivered only where the participant remains committed to Klarna’s long-term success. For share option awards, no value is realisable unless and until the market price of a Klarna ordinary share exceeds the exercise price at the time of grant. The Committee may, for future award cycles, introduce specific financial or relative Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) performance conditions on Variable Equity awards. Any such conditions, together with their weighting, targets, minimum levels of achievement and measurement period, will be described in the Annual Report on Remuneration for the relevant year as required. Vesting and holding period Variable Equity normally vests at 25% per annum over four years from the date of grant, subject to continued service. The Committee retains discretion to impose a post-vesting holding period following vesting. Malus and clawback Variable Equity awards are subject to malus and clawback as described in section B.4. B.2 Variable Equity Award Element Detail Purpose and link to strategy To enable the Executive Director to save for retirement on terms consistent with those available to the wider Klarna workforce in the relevant jurisdiction. Operation Executive Directors participate in the pension arrangements available in their home country, on the same basis as similarly situated employees in that country. The Group operates defined contribution pension plans only. Contributions are made to independent pension providers in accordance with the applicable plan rules or as cash payments in lieu of pension. Maximum The maximum employer pension contribution rate for any Executive Director will not exceed the contribution rate available to the wider workforce in the relevant jurisdiction for similarly situated employees. Performance conditions None. B.3 Pension

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 8 Element Detail Purpose and link to strategy To provide market-competitive benefits that support the Executive Director’s wellbeing, consistent with those available in the Executive Director’s home country. Operation Benefits provided to Executive Directors may include: private health, dental and vision coverage; life assurance; accident and disability insurance; employee assistance programmes; and other benefits available to the wider workforce in the relevant jurisdiction. Situation-specific benefits may also be provided where the Committee considers it appropriate, including but not limited to: tax return preparation and advice; directors’ and officers’ indemnification and insurance; home security arrangements; and, where relevant, international mobility support (including housing, immigration support and tax equalisation). The Committee retains discretion to introduce new benefits where introduced for the wider workforce or where otherwise in the Company’s interests. Maximum There is no overall maximum. The cost of benefits is set at a reasonable market level having regard to the nature of the role and the director’s home country. Performance conditions None. B.4 Benefits

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 9 B.5 Legacy arrangements The following arrangements were entered into before the adoption of this Policy. They will continue to be honoured in accordance with their original terms. All such arrangements are described in full in the Annual Report on Remuneration for the year ended 31 December 2025. Element Detail Class C Share Options - CEO On 5 March 2025, 17,505,672 Class C share options were granted to the CEO under Plan C of the Omnibus Plan. These options vest in equal annual instalments over four years and have a 4.5-year term. Two Class C share options entitle the holder to elect to receive either one ordinary share or two Class C shares. The average exercise price (expressed as the equivalent of one ordinary share) is approximately USD 91.80. Full details are disclosed in the Annual Report on Remuneration. The March 2025 grant described above is treated as a Legacy Arrangement under this Policy and will continue to vest and be settled in accordance with its original terms. Future grants of Class C Share Options, or awards on equivalent economic terms, to Executive Directors will be made under section B.1.2 (Fixed Equity Award) or section B.2 (Variable Equity Award) of this Policy (as elected by the relevant Executive Director), subject to the limits and provisions set out in those sections. The classification of any such future award as Fixed Equity or Variable Equity will depend on the terms of the award. Where awards of Class C Share Options are granted under Plan C of the Omnibus Plan, they are subject to the limits set out in Plan C, including (i) an annual limit of 1.5% of outstanding Shares on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year; and (ii) an aggregate limit such that the total votes attributable to Class C Shares do not exceed 15% of the aggregate votes that would have been eligible to be cast by all classes of shares immediately prior to the Company's IPO. Where C Share Options are granted pursuant to standalone award agreements outside Plan C, the Committee will apply equivalent limits. CFO Share Option and Vested Share Awards (March 2025) On 5 March 2025, the CFO was granted 1,364,964 ordinary share options at a weighted average exercise price equivalent to approximately USD 96.00 per share at the grant date exchange rate and 35,736 vested ordinary shares. These awards are disclosed in the Scheme Interests Awarded During the Year table in the Annual Report on Remuneration and will continue to vest and be exercisable in accordance with their original terms. Existing NED Equity Awards All awards made to Non-Executive Directors under the Omnibus Plan or any predecessor plan before the date of this Policy — as set out in the Scheme Interests Awarded During the Year table in the Annual Report on Remuneration — will continue to vest in accordance with their original terms. Repurchased Legacy Warrants During 2025, the Company (through Klarna Bank AB) repurchased an aggregate of 1,267,752 legacy warrants to acquire Klarna Holding AB ordinary shares held by employees and management. These repurchases occurred before the adoption of this Policy and are disclosed in the Annual Report on Remuneration. No further repurchases of legacy warrants by the Company are anticipated under this Policy. Annual Bonus For the year ended 31 December 2025, an annual bonus was determined in respect of the Executive Directors prior to the adoption of this Policy. No formal maximum bonus opportunity was set in advance for FY2025, reflecting the transitional nature of the Company’s first year as a quoted company and the fact that the Directors’ Remuneration Policy had not yet been approved by shareholders. The bonus was determined by the Committee with reference to the overall financial and operational performance of the Group during FY2025, exercising its judgment in the round as described in the Annual Report on Remuneration for the year ended 31 December 2025. The CEO (Sebastian Siemiatkowski) received a bonus of USD 0.3 million in respect of FY2025.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 10 C. Consideration of Pay Elsewhere in the Company C.1 Consideration of Pay Elsewhere in the Company The Committee takes into account pay and employment conditions across the wider Klarna workforce when setting executive remuneration. In particular: ● Base salary increases for Executive Directors are considered in the context of increases awarded to the broader Klarna employee population in the same period; ● Pension contribution rates for Executive Directors are aligned with those available to the wider workforce in the relevant jurisdiction; C.2 Committee Discretion The Committee will operate the annual bonus, the Omnibus Plan and any other incentive plans in accordance with the relevant plan rules and applicable law. The Committee retains discretion within the provisions of those rules and this Policy over a number of matters, including: ● who receives awards and the size of individual awards, within the Policy maxima; ● the setting, measurement and adjustment of performance conditions, targets and thresholds; ● All employees globally are eligible to participate in the Company’s Omnibus Incentive Plan, reflecting the Company’s commitment to broad-based equity ownership. The Committee does not formally consult with employees on the Directors’ Remuneration Policy. However, senior HR leadership regularly attends Committee meetings by invitation and provides information on workforce remuneration, employee sentiment and other relevant matters.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 11 C.3 Illustration of the Policy — Chief Executive Officer The charts below illustrate the potential total remuneration for the CEO (Sebastian Siemiatkowski) under four scenarios, based on current salary and the Policy maxima set out in Section B. These are illustrative only; actual outcomes will differ. Fixed Equity is shown at grant-date IFRS 2 fair value (650% of $3.3M base salary = $21.45M). This accounting value does not represent cash or value currently realisable. Variable Equity is shown at 100% of Fixed Compensation (base salary + Fixed Equity = $24.75M) for the maximum scenario. C.4 Illustration of the Policy — Chief Financial Officer The table below illustrates the potential total remuneration for the CFO (Niclas Neglén) under the same four scenarios, based on the CFO’s current base salary of USD 1,500,000 and the Policy maxima in section B. Fixed Equity shown at 650% of $1.5M base salary = $9.75M (IFRS 2 grant-date fair value). Variable Equity shown at 100% of Fixed Compensation (base salary + Fixed Equity = $11.25M) at 100% vesting.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom This section applies to all Non-Executive Directors. Non-Executive Directors do not participate in the annual bonus or Variable Equity awards and do not receive pension contributions. The components of Non-Executive Director remuneration are set out below. 12 D. Remuneration Policy — Non-Executive Directors Element Detail Purpose and link to strategy To provide fixed remuneration that reflects the time commitment and responsibilities of the Non-Executive Director role and that enables the Company to attract high-calibre Board candidates. Operation Non-Executive Directors receive an annual cash fee. Supplemental fees are payable for: (i) serving as Board Chair; (ii) serving as Senior Independent Director; (iii) membership of a Board Committee; and (iv) chairing a Board Committee. Fees are paid quarterly in arrears. Non-Executive Directors are reimbursed for reasonable travel, accommodation and other expenses properly incurred in connection with their duties. Such reimbursements are not remuneration for the purposes of this Policy or the Annual Report on Remuneration. Fee levels are determined by the Board (with the Non-Executive Directors recusing themselves from decisions on their own fees) by reference to market data for comparable roles and the expected time commitment. Fees are reviewed periodically. Maximum The maximum aggregate annual cash fees payable to all Non-Executive Directors (excluding Executive Directors) shall not exceed USD 5,000,000 in any financial year. This aggregate limit is set with headroom above current levels to accommodate future appointments and fee reviews. Performance conditions None. D.1 Fees Element Detail Purpose and link to strategy To align the interests of Non-Executive Directors with those of shareholders and to enable the Company to compete for high-calibre candidates consistent with US market practice for NYSE-listed companies. Operation Non-Executive Directors are eligible to receive annual equity awards under the Omnibus Plan normally in the form of share options (exercisable at grant-date market price, vesting over four years at 25% per annum) or RSUs (vesting over four years at 25% per annum), subject to continued service. Awards are not subject to performance conditions. The size and form of individual awards will be disclosed in the Annual Report on Remuneration for each year as required. Maximum Other than in exceptional circumstances, the maximum grant-date value of annual equity awards to any individual Non-Executive Director is USD 2,000,000 and the aggregate maximum grant-date value of all NED equity awards in any financial year is USD 15,000,000. Performance conditions None. NED equity awards are time-vested only. D.2 Equity Awards — Non-Executive Directors

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom E. Approach to Recruitment Remuneration 13 Element Detail General principle New executive and non-executive directors will be remunerated in accordance with the components and limits of this Policy. The Committee will seek to pay no more than it considers necessary to secure the required talent, taking into account any remuneration forfeited on leaving a previous employer. Maximum variable on recruitment The maximum variable remuneration opportunity (aggregate of annual bonus and Variable Equity Award) that may be offered to a new Executive Director on recruitment is 850% of base salary in the first year of appointment, excluding any buy-out award and Fixed Equity Award. Buy-out awards Where a newly recruited Executive Director forfeits remuneration from a previous employer as a result of joining Klarna, the Committee may make a one-time buy-out award to compensate for the forfeited remuneration on such basis and terms as the Committee considers appropriate in the circumstances. Buy-out awards may be made under the Omnibus Plan or, where necessary, outside it. Notice period on recruitment Initial contractual notice periods for new Executive Directors will not exceed 12 months, unless the Committee determines that exceptional circumstances apply.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom F. Service Contracts and Loss of Office 14 Element Detail Contract term Executive Directors are employed under service agreements of indefinite duration terminable by either party on the notice periods set out below. Notice period 12 months’ notice by the Company or by the Executive Director (or such shorter period as may be agreed for a specific individual). Where provided for in the relevant service agreement, the Company may at its discretion elect to make a lump sum payment in lieu of notice. Severance payment If the Company terminates an Executive Director’s employment, the Executive Director may, in addition to applicable notice, be entitled to a severance payment equal to up to 12 months’ base salary. Annual bonus on termination Good leaver: the Committee may at its discretion pay an annual bonus for the period of service in the relevant financial year, based on actual performance against the applicable targets, paid at the normal time. Payments will normally be pro-rated. Bad leaver (including termination for cause): no annual bonus is payable. Treatment of equity on termination Good leaver (including retirement, redundancy, ill-health, disability, death, or any other circumstance determined by the Committee): Unvested Variable Equity awards will normally continue to vest on the original schedule, subject to any applicable conditions and will normally be pro-rated for time served. The Committee retains discretion to accelerate vesting in exceptional circumstances. Post-termination restrictions Executive Directors are subject to post-termination obligations including confidentiality, non-competition (up to 12 months post-termination), non-solicitation obligations (up to 12 months post-termination). Where provided for in the relevant service agreement, the Company pays compensation during the non-competition period of up to 100% of the monthly base salary. Such compensation is not paid in the event that severance is paid. Benefits on termination The Company may, at the Committee’s discretion, continue health and other benefits for a limited period following termination, and may pay reasonable outplacement, legal or professional advisory costs. The Company may also pay amounts reasonably required to settle any legal claims. F.1 Executive Directors Element Detail Appointment Non-Executive Directors are appointed under letters of appointment, not service contracts. All directors are subject to annual re-election by shareholders at the AGM. Notice period Letters of appointment may be terminated on three months’ written notice by either party, or with immediate effect in the event of a material breach. Termination payment Non-Executive Directors have no entitlement to compensation on termination beyond fees accrued to the date of termination. No benefits or severance payments are made on removal or resignation. Treatment of equity If a Non-Executive Director ceases to serve before their annual equity award has vested, unvested awards will normally lapse. The Board retains discretion to determine that awards vest (in full or in part) in exceptional circumstances. F.2 Non-Executive Directors

Consideration of Shareholder Views The Committee values dialogue with the Company’s institutional shareholders and proxy advisory firms. As this is the Company's first Directors' Remuneration Policy, no shareholder views on a previous policy have been received. The Committee will consider any shareholder feedback received in connection with the 2026 AGM and will take such feedback into account in the implementation and any future revision of this Policy. H. Amendments to the Policy The Committee may make minor amendments to this Policy without obtaining prior shareholder approval, provided that: (i) the amendment is required to comply with applicable law or regulation; (ii) the amendment is made for regulatory, exchange control, tax or administrative purposes; or (iii) the amendment does not result in materially increased costs to the Company or materially increased benefits to any director. In all other cases, any material change to this Policy will require shareholder approval at a general meeting before taking effect. The Committee will consult with key shareholders and proxy advisory firms prior to proposing any material change.

Directors' Remuneration Report 2025 16

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom Single Total Figure Remuneration Table The following table sets forth information concerning the components of remuneration of the current members of our board of directors for the year ended 31 December 2025. As the Company listed during 2025, no comparable prior year data is provided. 17 17 (in $ millions) Fixed Variable Fixed Variable Variable Fixed 2025 Salary Bonus Fixed Equity Variable Equity Other Benefits Pension Expenses Total Directors Michael J.

Comparative disclosure will be included in future years. Expense Reimbursements In addition to the remuneration disclosed in the table above, the Company reimburses directors for reasonable expenses incurred in the performance of their duties in the normal course of business. Such expenses include travel, accommodation and other incidental costs incurred in connection with attending Board and Committee meetings and carrying out their responsibilities as directors of the Company. Expense reimbursements are not considered to form part of directors' remuneration for the purposes of this report and are not included in the figures set out in the Single Total Figure Remuneration Table above. Fixed and Variable Remuneration Fixed Remuneration Fixed remuneration comprises base salary, pension contributions and other benefits, together with Fixed Equity awards. Fixed Equity is awarded at the election of each eligible director in the form of either share options exercisable at grant date or vested shares, in both cases subject to holding restrictions for retention purposes. Fixed Equity is not subject to performance conditions but serves to align director and officer interests with those of shareholders over the medium to long term through the operation of the applicable holding period. For the year ended 31 December 2025, total Fixed Equity awarded to all directors and officers amounted to $21.4 million.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 18 Variable Remuneration Variable remuneration comprises Variable Equity awards. Variable Equity is performance-based in its design and purpose: it is linked to continued service and the long-term growth of shareholder value over a multi-year vesting period. Variable Equity awards vest at 25% per annum over a four-year period without the application of specific financial performance-linked targets; the time-based vesting schedule is itself considered a performance and retention mechanism, ensuring that value is delivered only where the participant remains committed to Klarna's long-term success. Variable Equity awards are made at the election of each eligible director in the form of share options or Restricted Share Units ("RSUs"). Share options are granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of the Company's ordinary shares on the date of grant. The number of ordinary shares receivable on exercise may be enhanced for certain senior awards to reflect the longer-term nature of the commitment and the level of seniority of the participant, as determined by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee. RSUs granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan vest into ordinary shares in Klarna Group plc and, on vesting, may be subject to a withholding arrangement to settle the participant's tax liability in accordance with applicable law. The total gross value of the variable equity awards granted was determined by reference to the performance of the business over the relevant year. Whilst no specific performance metrics were set in advance, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee had regard to the overall financial performance of Klarna over 2025 in determining the relevant payout levels. For the year ended 31 December 2025, total Variable Equity awarded across all directors and officers amounted to $33.5 million. On a Group-wide basis, variable equity represented approximately 55% of total remuneration, reflecting the Board's commitment to a strongly performance-aligned pay structure. CEO Long-Term Incentive and Equity Alignment In 2025, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee approved the grant of 17,505,672 Class C share options to Sebastian Siemiatkowski, the Co-Founder and CEO, under the Plan C of the Omnibus Plan. These options vest in equal annual instalments over a four-year period. The weighted average exercise price, expressed as the equivalent of one ordinary share, is $91.8 — representing a substantial premium of approximately 130% to the IPO price of $40.00 per ordinary share at which Klarna listed on the New York Stock Exchange in September 2025. As of the date of this report, these options are materially out of the money and no value is realisable by Mr Siemiatkowski unless and until the ordinary share price exceeds the exercise price. This structure directly aligns the CEO's long-term incentive with the interests of shareholders who benefit from equivalent share price appreciation. Two Class C share options entitle the recipient to either one ordinary share or two Class C shares, at Mr Siemiatkowski's election. The acquisition of Class C shares upon exercise is subject to an annual limit of 1.5% of issued and outstanding ordinary shares as of the last day of the preceding fiscal year, and the total voting rights attributable to all outstanding Class C shares may not at any time exceed 15% of total voting rights outstanding immediately prior to the Company's IPO. As of the date of this report, no Class C shares have been issued. The equity compensation amounts reported in the Single Total Figure Remuneration Table reflect grant-date fair values calculated in accordance with IFRS 2 and do not represent cash compensation received by, or value currently realisable by, Mr Siemiatkowski. Vesting Schedule All equity awards — both Fixed Equity (to the extent subject to holding restrictions) and Variable Equity — are designed to create a long-term alignment between the interests of directors, executive officers and shareholders. Variable Equity under both the RSU Programme and the share option plans vests at 25% per annum over a four-year period, subject to continued service. This staggered vesting approach serves as a retention mechanism and ensures that realised value is proportionate to the participant's sustained contribution to Klarna's growth over time.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 19 Malus and Clawback All variable equity award agreements entered into under the Omnibus Incentive Plan — encompassing RSUs, share options and other share-based awards — include customary malus and clawback provisions. These provisions enable the Company to cancel unvested awards (malus) or require the reimbursement of vested or exercised awards (clawback) in the event of, amongst other circumstances: ● misconduct or a material breach of the Company's policies, rules or applicable laws and regulations; ● a material misstatement of the Company's financial results; or ● a material adverse effect on the Group's results of operations, financial condition or future prospects. These provisions apply to the extent permitted by applicable law and any relevant stock exchange rules, including the requirements of Section 10D of the Exchange Act and any rules promulgated thereunder. The existence of robust malus and clawback provisions reflects the Board's commitment to sound risk governance and its ability to respond to failures in conduct or financial performance by ensuring that variable pay outcomes remain appropriate in light of actual circumstances. Variable remuneration may also be unilaterally reduced or withdrawn prior to payment or vesting where the criteria underpinning the award are not met, or where the Group's performance, compliance record or risk profile warrants such action.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom 20 Total Shareholder Return The graph below shows the total shareholder return ("TSR") on a holding of the Company's ordinary shares from admission to trading on the New York Stock Exchange on 10 September 2025 to 31 December 2025, compared to a hypothetical holding of shares making up the NYSE Composite Index over the same period. The NYSE Composite Index has been selected as the broad equity market comparator on the basis that it represents the most appropriate measure of general market performance against which Klarna's TSR should be assessed, being the index of the exchange on which the Company's ordinary shares are listed and traded. TSR has been calculated assuming the reinvestment of dividends. No dividends were declared or paid by the Company during the period from admission to 31 December 2025. The graph has been prepared using a base value of 100 applied to the IPO price of $40.00 per ordinary share and to the closing level of the NYSE Composite Index on 10 September 2025, being the date of admission to trading. As Klarna Group plc was admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange on 10 September 2025, the graph covers only the period from the date of admission to 31 December 2025, being a period of approximately 113 days. The graph will be extended in subsequent years' Directors' Remuneration Reports until a five-year performance period has been accumulated. During the period from admission to 31 December 2025, the TSR on a holding of the Company's ordinary shares was -27.73%, reflecting a closing share price of $28.91 on 31 December 2025 against the IPO price of $40. Over the same period, the NYSE Composite Index returned approximately 3.33%, reflecting the broader market context in which the Company operated during its first partial year as a listed company. For the year ended 31 December 2025, being the first year in the relevant period, the CEO's total single figure of remuneration was $45.1 million. The CEO received a short-term incentive (annual bonus) of $0.3 million. No formal maximum bonus opportunity was set in advance for FY2025. It is therefore not possible to express the bonus outcome as a percentage of a pre-determined maximum opportunity. The CEO's Variable Equity awards vest on a time basis over four years and are not subject to financial or strategic performance conditions. As there is no performance-conditioned maximum opportunity against which a vesting outcome can meaningfully be expressed as a percentage, the long-term incentive percentage metric required for this section is not applicable for this period. This disclosure will be extended in subsequent Directors' Remuneration Reports.

For awards granted on 5 March 2025, a share price of $34.00 has been applied. For awards granted on 11 September 2025, a share price of $42.74 has been applied and for awards granted on 1 December 2025, a share price of $30.04 was applied. Face value does not represent the value realisable by the director or officer at the time of grant, nor does it take into account the exercise price payable on exercise of any share options or the probability of vesting. Awards were made under the Klarna Group plc 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan or, in the case of the CEO’s Class C share options, pursuant to the applicable standalone award arrangement / Plan C. Executive Director option awards vest in four equal annual instalments of 25% over four years, subject to continued service. No separate financial performance conditions applied to the awards granted in FY2025. Vesting is based on continued service over the applicable vesting period and, on that basis, up to 100% of the award is capable of vesting. In the case of market-value share options, however, no economic value is realisable on exercise unless the market value of a Klarna ordinary share exceeds the exercise price at the time of exercise. For the CEO’s Class C share options, two Class C options entitle the holder to elect to receive either one ordinary share or two Class C shares on exercise, subject to the terms of the award and the applicable limits described elsewhere in this report. Pension Entitlements The Group operates defined contribution pension plans only. Contributions are made to independent legal entities in accordance with fixed pension plans. The Group has no further obligation once contributions are paid. No directors have entitlements under defined benefit or cash balance arrangements; accordingly, the detailed disclosures required for defined benefit schemes are not applicable. Payments to past directors There were no payments to past directors made during the year.

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales under company number 14467769) Registered Office: 10 York Road, London SE1 7ND, United Kingdom At Klarna Bank AB level, following the discontinuation of the Remuneration Committee, the Board designated Omid R. Kordestani as Remuneration Oversight Director (ROD), responsible for preparing and presenting proposals to the Klarna Bank AB board on remuneration matters, including the Remuneration Policy and remuneration for members of the Group Management Team. The ROD conducts an annual independent evaluation of the Remuneration Policy and Klarna's remuneration system.

Compensia provided benchmarking analysis and advice to the Committee in connection with directors' remuneration during the year ended 31 December 2024, which formed the basis for the directors’ remuneration structure during the year ended 31 December 2025. Compensia was appointed by the Committee. Compensia had no other connection with the Company or any individual director during the period, and the Committee is satisfied that the advice received was objective and independent. Implementation of Remuneration Policy in 2026 This section describes how the Committee intends to implement the Directors' Remuneration Policy (the "Policy") during the financial year ending 31 December 2026. 1. Executive Directors a. Base salary Following its annual review, the Committee determined that no changes to Executive Director base salaries are appropriate for FY2026. b. Fixed equity In addition to base salary, each Executive Director receives an element of fixed compensation in the form of equity granted quarterly under the 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan. For FY2026, the Committee determined that no changes to the annual fixed equity gross grant values are appropriate. Fixed equity is a contractual, non-discretionary element of the Executive Directors' remuneration package and is not subject to performance conditions. c. Benefits and pension The Executive Directors will continue to receive benefits and pension contributions in accordance with the Policy and on terms consistent with those available to the wider Klarna workforce in their respective home jurisdictions. The Committee determined that no changes are appropriate for FY2026. d. Variable equity Variable equity awards will be granted in respect of 2026 under the 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan, within the limits and in accordance with the terms of the directors’ remuneration policy. 23

Fees The fees payable to the Chairperson and Non-Executive Directors for FY2026 are unchanged from FY2025. b. Equity Awards Each Non-Executive Director is eligible to receive an annual equity award under the Omnibus Plan with a grant-date value of up to USD 220,000. Awards vest over four years at 25% per annum, subject to continued service, and are not subject to performance conditions.

Remuneration Program The aim of our remuneration program is to both support our ability to attract and retain global talent in every position at Klarna and promote equal and fair treatment, as well as to ensure that remuneration is aligned with efficient risk management and compliant with applicable laws and regulations. Our remuneration framework acknowledges the necessity of globally aligned, well-balanced, yet differentiated executive compensation structures tailored to support Klarna's global footprint. It emphasizes the importance of consistency with sound and efficient risk management practices, avoiding excessive risk-taking and short-term profit pursuits that could impede our long-term objectives. Additionally, where applicable, our remuneration program reflects the requirements of the Swedish banking regulations applicable to Klarna. Remuneration and Nomination Committee We have established a Remuneration and Nomination Committee, which supports our board of directors in establishing and reviewing the compensation and benefits strategy and guidelines as well as in preparing the proposals to the annual general meeting of shareholders regarding the compensation of the members of our board of directors and our executive officers. The committee may submit proposals to the board of directors on other compensation-related matters. Our Remuneration and Nomination Committee consists of Omid R. Kordestani, Andrew Reed, Sir Michael J. Moritz and Sarah Smith, with Omid R. Kordestani serving as chair. Shareholder Voting on Remuneration As Klarna Group plc was admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange on 10 September 2025, the Company has not yet held an Annual General Meeting as a quoted company at which a resolution to approve the Directors' Remuneration Report or the Directors' Remuneration Policy has been put to shareholders. Accordingly, no voting data is available for disclosure in this first report. The Directors' Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 December 2025 will be put to an advisory shareholder vote at the Company's first Annual General Meeting as a quoted company. The Directors' Remuneration Policy will also be put to a binding shareholder vote at that meeting in accordance with section 439A of the Companies Act 2006. This Directors' Remuneration Report was approved by the Board of Directors of Klarna Group plc on 27 May 2026. Boudien Moerman Company Secretary & Chief Legal Officer Klarna Group plc 27 May 2026 24
