Reference is made to the stock exchange notice of 22 January 2026, where it was announced that DNB Bank ASA will separate the business area DNB Finans into a wholly owned subsidiary, which will be named DNB Finans AS. The separation will be carried out through three separate transactions. It was further announced that the first transaction had been completed, specifically that DNB Finans had been demerged into Godskipet 9 AS. At the same time, the share capital of DNB Bank ASA was reduced from NOK 18,470,062,312.50 to NOK 17,136,607,277.50.

The next transaction was completed on 24 January 2026. Specifically, Godskipet 9 AS was merged into Godskipet 8 AS. By the merger, the share capital of DNB Bank ASA was increased back to NOK 18,470,062,312.50, so that the total share capital remains unchanged by the transactions. The number of shares will remain 1,477,604,985. The capital reduction and subsequent capital increase were carried out to ensure that DNB Finans AS becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of DNB Bank ASA.

The only remaining step is the merger of Godskipet 8 AS into Eksportfinans AS, which is a credit institution with the required licenses to operate the business of DNB Finans. Eksportfinans AS will simultaneously change its name to DNB Finans AS. This merger is expected to be completed shortly.

For further information, please contact Rune Helland, Head of Investor Relations, on +47 23 26 84 00 or +47 97 71 32 50.

On 29 April 2025, the Annual General Meeting of DNB Bank ASA resolved to separate the business area DNB Finans into a separate wholly owned subsidiary, which will be named DNB Finans AS. The separation will be carried out through three transactions, involving the wholly owned subsidiaries Godskipet 9 AS, Godskipet 8 AS, and Eksportfinans AS:

1. As the first transaction, DNB Finans will be demerged from DNB Bank ASA to Godskipet 9 AS. Due to technical requirements, the share capital of DNB Bank ASA will simultaneously be reduced from NOK 18,470,062,312.50 to NOK 17,136,607,277.50, through a reduction in the nominal value of the shares. The number of shares will remain 1,477,604,985.

This demerger and the associated capital reduction were completed on 22 January 2026, through registration in the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises.

2. The next transaction will be the merger of Godskipet 9 AS (including DNB Finans) into Godskipet 8 AS, which is expected to take place shortly. Upon completion of this merger, the share capital of DNB Bank ASA will be increased back to NOK 18,470,062,312.50. Thus, the share capital and number of shares remain unchanged by the transactions. A separate stock exchange notice will be published when the capital increase has been completed.

3. The final transaction will be the merger of Godskipet 8 AS into Eksportfinans AS, which is a credit institution with the required licenses to operate the business of DNB Finans. Eksportfinans AS will simultaneously change its name to DNB Finans AS.
