MLP SE

Thank you very much and welcome to MLP's conference call to our results for the second quarter and the first half year of 2026. With me today is our CFO, Reinhard Loose. He will guide you through the presentation. And of course, we are happy to take your questions after the presentation. So please go ahead, Reinhard.

Thank you, Pascal, and good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. First, the key finding regarding our business performance in the first half of 2026. MLP Group achieved a new record high in both Total Revenue and Earnings Before Interest and Taxes and continued on its growth trajectory. After we already made a good start to the year in the first quarter, we were then able to deliver a particularly strong second quarter. across the first half year, we recorded growth in all three competence fields, wealth, life and health, and property and casualty. Revenue growth was particularly strong in the property and casualty and wealth competence fields. At the same time, The MEP Group also increased the key figures relevant to future revenue development to new record levels.

This applies equally to the assets under management and the non-life insurance premium volume.
