IFRS Accounting Standards financial
"UBS Group AG’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards."
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are a set of common rules for preparing company financial reports so numbers like profit, assets and debt are presented consistently across countries. Think of them as a standardized recipe or blueprint that helps investors compare businesses the same way they would compare cars using the same list of features; consistent reporting reduces surprises and makes it easier to assess value, risk and performance.
additional tier 1 capital instruments financial
"eligible as high-trigger loss-absorbing additional tier 1 capital instruments 21,133 17,551"
Form 20-F regulatory
"annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2025"
Form 20-F is the standardized annual disclosure that non-U.S. companies must file with the U.S. securities regulator when their shares are traded in the U.S.; it contains audited financial statements, a plain-language description of the business, management discussion, governance details and key risk factors. It matters to investors because it provides a consistent, comparable company “report card” and rulebook, helping buyers assess financial health, governance and risks before investing.
Form F-3 regulatory
"incorporated by reference into (1) the registration statement on Form F-3"
Form F-3 is a U.S. securities filing that lets eligible foreign companies pre-register and then quickly sell shares or other securities to raise money, because they already meet ongoing reporting and size tests. For investors it signals that the company is up-to-date with regulatory disclosure and has an efficient way to issue new securities — similar to a pre-approved credit line — which can mean faster capital raises but also potential dilution of existing holdings.
Form S-8 regulatory
"the registration statements of UBS Group on Form S-8"
A Form S-8 is a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission registration that lets a public company set aside shares for employee benefit plans and stock-based compensation. Think of it as opening a dedicated account that authorizes the company to issue or reserve stock for workers and directors; it matters to investors because it enables share dilution when those awards are granted or exercised and signals how management is compensated and incentivized.
non-controlling interests financial
"Equity attributable to non-controlling interests 255 271"
An ownership stake in a subsidiary held by outside shareholders rather than the parent company, representing the portion of that subsidiary’s assets and profits the parent does not control. For investors, it shows what part of consolidated earnings and equity belongs to others — like a roommate who owns part of a house — which affects how much value and profit per share are truly attributable to the parent company’s shareholders.
